17:38.000 --> 18:06.000
Welcome to the final day of the international 15.

18:06.000 --> 18:10.140
two weeks ago, we flew in the 16 best

18:10.140 --> 18:14.440
Dota 2 teams in the world here into Shanghai

18:14.440 --> 18:16.340
and in a brutal group stage.

18:16.340 --> 18:19.680
We got rid of eight over the last four days

18:19.680 --> 18:21.720
in the Oriental Sports Center.

18:21.720 --> 18:25.960
We have been cutting and cutting and cutting onions

18:25.960 --> 18:28.260
and teams alike until now.

18:28.260 --> 18:33.120
We only have three teams left remaining.

18:33.120 --> 18:35.000
Before we talk about what is in store

18:35.000 --> 18:38.840
team. They really did have to

18:39.000 --> 18:41.000
play for those three teams that

18:41.140 --> 18:42.900
will take the stage here today

18:43.000 --> 18:44.500
yesterday from six teams to

18:44.600 --> 18:47.000
three teams also was an

18:47.100 --> 18:49.200
incredible journey. And this

18:49.300 --> 18:53.100
was a long day of dough to two

18:53.200 --> 18:55.000
in particular for a team and

18:55.100 --> 18:56.400
that had to play the first

18:56.500 --> 18:58.600
and the last of talking about

18:58.700 --> 19:00.600
team spirit, and they did make

19:00.700 --> 19:02.700
their way through. They have

19:02.700 --> 19:05.040
that is in the Grand Finals.

19:05.040 --> 19:07.540
I'm talking, oh, well, that was a little bit

19:07.540 --> 19:09.180
of sans fan in your ears there.

19:09.180 --> 19:10.580
That's all good.

19:10.580 --> 19:12.860
You're gonna get some other talents in your ear though,

19:12.860 --> 19:16.300
as we are joined by Rayal, Winter, and Tegov,

19:16.300 --> 19:19.380
Tegov yesterday, I already mentioned Team Spirit.

19:19.380 --> 19:23.260
They had a very long day to get to this final day

19:23.260 --> 19:26.140
and maybe even a longer row to get to this final.

19:26.140 --> 19:27.420
Yeah, like, tournament.

19:27.420 --> 19:29.420
I mean, those were like, first of all,

19:29.420 --> 19:30.260
probably the entire year,

19:30.260 --> 19:32.660
having like big key players take breaks

19:32.660 --> 19:34.980
and then come back, and then every little iteration

19:34.980 --> 19:35.820
they got stronger and stronger,

19:35.820 --> 19:38.420
and then yesterday they had the first and last,

19:38.420 --> 19:40.780
and it just felt like they had no issues of sleep,

19:40.780 --> 19:41.620
no issues at all.

19:41.620 --> 19:44.340
They were just rocking up, cruising through the games.

19:44.340 --> 19:46.640
I am afraid for anyone who goes in their spirits.

19:46.640 --> 19:49.300
Somehow I feel like spirit on the ground find this already,

19:49.300 --> 19:51.380
and like visions, I don't know, it feels weird

19:51.380 --> 19:53.180
because I look at spirit and ugh,

19:53.180 --> 19:54.340
they're a scary team right now.

19:54.340 --> 19:55.780
They are a very scary team.

19:55.780 --> 19:56.620
How you feel?

19:56.620 --> 19:58.020
Do you feel the jitters this morning

19:58.020 --> 19:59.900
on finals day here in winter?

19:59.900 --> 20:00.740
No, not at all.

20:00.740 --> 20:01.580
Not at all.

20:01.580 --> 20:07.180
I'm very excited to look at the games, and I'm sure the players, you know, they want

20:07.180 --> 20:08.180
to bring their best today.

20:08.180 --> 20:13.020
There's going to be a lot of exciting thoughts, and it can't wait to be a part of it.

20:13.020 --> 20:14.020
We are a part of it.

20:14.020 --> 20:15.460
Rhea, we mentioned Spirit also quickly.

20:15.460 --> 20:17.300
You want to briefly mention Yanleks, of course.

20:17.300 --> 20:19.780
They also had a brutal road to get here.

20:19.780 --> 20:25.420
I'm so excited to see who overcomes their demons, because obviously Vision have looked

20:25.420 --> 20:26.420
so dominant.

20:26.420 --> 20:29.620
I think even coming into the tournament, everyone thought they were favorites.

20:29.620 --> 20:33.640
So for them to be seeing in the Grand Finals makes complete sense and now spirit who have

20:33.640 --> 20:38.380
lost twice of them have to overcome that and Yandex who I also thought was a strong contender

20:38.380 --> 20:43.340
had such a rocking group stage so they have defied the odds so completely to get to this

20:43.340 --> 20:47.660
point and now going through this lower bracket it's like can they overcome that they've

20:47.660 --> 20:49.060
had so many good storylines.

20:49.060 --> 20:52.900
I love the players so much and I think no matter who wins today out of all three

20:52.900 --> 20:55.860
teams we are going to get a fantastic outcome.

20:55.860 --> 20:57.860
This is genuinely just peak Dota.

20:57.860 --> 21:02.020
has been picked over yesterday was picked over as well and if you miss any of it

21:02.020 --> 21:05.620
let's take a look at yesterday's Rica

21:05.620 --> 21:28.420
It's a lot of damage to Laurel, gets a roll up and gets cleansed as well and goes inside

21:28.420 --> 21:32.100
of the cart which is going to be brought back into Nisha's face apparently gets off the

21:32.100 --> 21:35.880
You'll go now Laurel put in a different area spot. It will die will drop the gem as well

21:36.000 --> 21:40.720
So fill up boxy though in turn as room getting saved last one by the destruction in general

21:40.720 --> 21:42.720
He's just fountain farming at this point

21:43.080 --> 21:46.740
The 20 seconds for ace to come back that's a double buyback on the liquid arrow

21:46.740 --> 21:49.400
Not an arrow though. Do they have no weapon? They do

21:49.400 --> 21:52.400
The lack of damage coming through the stick games gonna get the kill deal like I've done that

21:52.400 --> 21:57.020
They're gonna get the kill now onto the center all likelihood that's a death reckoning though for the shadow feed

21:57.020 --> 22:06.040
Here for down second one will bite the dust as well and liquid gonna have to try to fight this out without their tiny

22:06.040 --> 22:11.820
But yet or just focusing on the bear. It's already a half a fee on the ancient no reason to switch targets

22:12.020 --> 22:16.500
They're gonna try to burst them down the part is coming to them to be baby, but he's inside the car now

22:16.500 --> 22:24.860
They destroy the Marana. They destroy the ancient and spirit will move on the international lower brackets liquid eliminated

22:27.020 --> 22:43.120
It fasted, backing out has another focus fire, but as he comes out and gets stunned, Sumail

22:43.120 --> 22:44.120
striders in!

22:44.120 --> 22:45.620
It's not gonna happen!

22:45.620 --> 22:50.200
They take down Sumail, relocate out in GPK, he's just waiting.

22:50.200 --> 22:52.200
It's the timing right.

22:52.200 --> 22:56.640
They come in with the Vi, find the Stomp, but as the only core left alive they find

22:56.640 --> 22:59.880
The good arrow called a brace not gonna matter.

22:59.880 --> 23:01.800
Kiritich too strong.

23:01.800 --> 23:02.640
They won't be denied.

23:02.640 --> 23:04.040
This is the most electric light skill

23:04.040 --> 23:05.600
that we have seen where it goes.

23:07.720 --> 23:09.440
Roche, half HP.

23:09.440 --> 23:11.760
Kiritich calculating, finding his angle.

23:11.760 --> 23:13.840
That's my damage is there, ready for a jump.

23:13.840 --> 23:15.920
They drop down the stage, now they'll walk in.

23:15.920 --> 23:17.240
Please not gonna do much to jump

23:17.240 --> 23:19.920
for an avatar, and he's catching the agents.

23:19.920 --> 23:23.080
Kiritich trying to put his team on the back.

23:23.080 --> 23:25.680
But I don't know if it's enough to carry.

23:25.680 --> 23:27.480
It's a hard one to make work.

23:27.480 --> 23:30.640
The Requiem comes out and Sumail destroys the arrow.

23:30.640 --> 23:33.040
Kiritich also gonna fall.

23:35.540 --> 23:37.200
They find the stun, the Wheel of Wonder.

23:37.200 --> 23:38.040
How much damage they have?

23:38.040 --> 23:39.200
She became some trouble.

23:39.200 --> 23:40.720
He's hypnotized, pull back and low.

23:40.720 --> 23:42.160
He's not low enough though.

23:42.160 --> 23:45.080
And with Kiritich holding the Aegis,

23:45.080 --> 23:48.760
Big Mug, Galaxy, the hopes, the dreams,

23:48.760 --> 23:50.160
they are faltering.

23:50.160 --> 23:52.280
They got both supports for now, but they're gonna get out of here.

23:52.280 --> 23:54.360
Oh, Divy, Divy, you're in trouble, sir.

23:54.360 --> 23:59.800
The Stomp is there again from Mero, and Dubai will eventually drop.

24:01.800 --> 24:07.400
Sigma Galaxy, there is no salvation in the well, because they are taking your tier 4 towers.

24:07.400 --> 24:13.720
Lorinov tries to find a moment to eat Remdance away, but as the Ancient is exposed, Boom Boys,

24:13.720 --> 24:17.320
they get the Grip, they get the Triple Kill, they go into the fountain.

24:17.320 --> 24:20.520
Gigi is called! Boom Boys, hop for it!

24:24.360 --> 24:41.500
I'm not scared of Yandex, notice might just be ready to make some sort of blind blink

24:41.500 --> 24:42.500
in soon.

24:42.500 --> 24:44.500
When we're again

25:42.500 --> 25:57.500
He's out for 80. Malady dies beyond the tier 3 tower and DM has been caught by Dineblast for dead on Yandex.

25:57.500 --> 26:02.500
And it gets him with the con, but that sacks around. He doesn't have the buyback, but he

26:02.500 --> 26:08.500
gives a hex on the cheerer into the fair. He'll buy back. Tm's gonna have Ravage up in a second.

26:08.500 --> 26:12.500
Tornado should be enough to finish 9 class off. There comes the Ravage.

26:12.500 --> 26:14.500
Notice is untouched on Fade.

26:14.500 --> 26:17.500
That's what the call-staff monitoring, but it doesn't matter. They get him down to

26:17.500 --> 26:21.500
half HP, they won't get him any lower. D-Lens gone. This game, this series is

26:21.500 --> 26:26.500
Here is his other T-Tian card! T-Tian are moving on to the grand final!

26:39.500 --> 26:41.500
It's gonna be an interesting damage test, right?

26:42.500 --> 26:44.500
Don't think there's any way to Taro Pilsen here?

26:45.500 --> 26:48.500
But, just him alone gets him down to half HP.

26:48.500 --> 26:50.800
Now the winner's cursed, actually. Oh, that's gonna set things up.

26:50.800 --> 26:51.740
Really nasty.

26:51.740 --> 26:54.640
The pushback, and a couple of them with a pushback from Nami!

26:54.640 --> 26:56.340
And most of them going down.

26:56.340 --> 26:59.300
Kolas delivers with a crush to follow through.

26:59.300 --> 27:01.800
And now Kiritnits all the way underneath the tier fours.

27:01.800 --> 27:04.740
They don't give a damn about your base team spirit.

27:08.740 --> 27:10.700
Okay, up we stop from Nami.

27:10.700 --> 27:14.040
Stole away from the center. Couldn't get the Talbot to get as far as it would up away.

27:14.040 --> 27:16.640
Nami, playing a little loose with him here.

27:16.640 --> 27:18.680
It does get himself killed inside the base.

27:18.680 --> 27:20.600
Yutaro's already finished off the tier three.

27:20.600 --> 27:23.120
And now he's saying, all right, who's next?

27:23.120 --> 27:24.520
I've got one more building to go.

27:24.520 --> 27:25.840
Ka-Zohmi, the Colt, the Grace one,

27:25.840 --> 27:26.880
they've set up for me.

27:26.880 --> 27:28.720
Tornado couldn't get there in time to save him.

27:28.720 --> 27:30.560
Yutaro now hitting melee barracks.

27:30.560 --> 27:32.200
Here comes the gauge stop and Miro.

27:32.200 --> 27:33.040
One, two, three.

27:33.040 --> 27:34.400
Miro's almost dead already.

27:34.400 --> 27:35.320
He hits the stop.

27:35.320 --> 27:39.200
He's running in and he's running straight into the lawnmower.

27:39.200 --> 27:40.840
That is Yutaro in his side play.

27:40.840 --> 27:42.280
And that's Gigi!

27:42.280 --> 27:44.720
Team Spirit will make their first

27:44.720 --> 27:46.720
to the last day of TI.

27:57.720 --> 28:01.720
Yeah, with that, we do have Team Vision in the grand final set

28:01.720 --> 28:04.720
and waiting for their opponents, and we have Team Spirit and Yannex.

28:04.720 --> 28:13.720
But I also wanted to give a quick second to just still talk a little bit about the three teams we saw eliminated yesterday,

28:13.720 --> 28:18.960
because this is an event where you know of course eliminated from a tournament

28:18.960 --> 28:22.120
these players are not going to be unfamiliar with that but eliminated from

28:22.120 --> 28:25.880
the international this is not just a year in the making this is potentially a

28:25.880 --> 28:30.600
decade in the making for some of these teams. Yeah obviously TI is the most

28:30.600 --> 28:33.840
important tournament of the year for every team it's what we all dream and

28:33.840 --> 28:39.000
aspire towards seeing how the teams changed throughout the year to get to

28:39.000 --> 28:46.840
this point it's just so it's so inspiring how some overcome and then it's so tragic how some fall short

28:46.840 --> 28:52.440
and obviously I think the one that touched the hearts of most yesterday was Nigma's elimination I

28:52.440 --> 28:59.320
have seen the outpouring of love towards the male after he alluded to a potential retirement here

28:59.320 --> 29:04.680
in his exit interview and yeah I think that really was a very emotional moment for us as well

29:04.680 --> 29:11.320
who all grew up watching this guy win TI and continue to keep playing until now a lot of emotions on stage

29:11.720 --> 29:16.520
Yeah, for sure. I mean even like with Keratich mid game like he's like loop in the TA game

29:16.520 --> 29:20.200
Like he's losing. He's feeling the pressure and like he's like hitting the desk still like, you know

29:20.200 --> 29:25.480
Like he wants to win TI like this is what everyone wants to try and to achieve in their daughter career if it takes them

29:25.480 --> 29:28.280
You know one year if they're just a really good player who takes them

29:28.280 --> 29:33.420
You know 15 years because they're trying super hard like they're gonna try every single time to lift that ages

29:33.420 --> 29:35.720
because this tournament it means so much to them.

29:35.720 --> 29:40.940
Yeah, I think Winter sometimes we either forget or take for granted that a lot of the players

29:40.940 --> 29:44.700
is they don't just dedicate, you know the year to it, they dedicate their lives to it.

29:44.700 --> 29:47.500
They have dedicated their lives to it already win or lose.

29:47.500 --> 29:51.620
Yeah, it's more than eight hours a day, you know, you wake up, you play the other,

29:51.620 --> 29:54.860
you stop a bit, you watch replay and then you eat and then you play again.

29:54.860 --> 29:57.740
And if you take a break guess what someone else is not resting.

29:57.740 --> 29:58.940
He's the one moving forward.

29:58.940 --> 30:02.260
He's trying to figure out something else that you already didn't figure out and

30:02.260 --> 30:03.260
he's going to get ahead.

30:03.260 --> 30:08.360
everybody is fighting so hard every day and when you come to TI, everybody wants to win

30:08.360 --> 30:12.600
and it's so difficult when you just don't really get the result that you want to and

30:12.600 --> 30:17.040
you have worked the whole year through it so it's very, very difficult for the players

30:17.040 --> 30:18.040
to accept it.

30:18.040 --> 30:22.240
It is very difficult and it is also truly amazing what we see on stage.

30:22.240 --> 30:27.400
This is not just a result of as we say here, this is the result of a craftsmanship

30:27.400 --> 30:30.240
of a lifetime we see displayed on the stage.

30:30.240 --> 30:45.240
craftsmanship that has come to life yesterday, as we saw has been an embroidery that has been put together for this year's International, and that wouldn't have been put together in the way that it did, if it wasn't for years and years of dedication to the craft.

30:45.240 --> 30:52.240
And to take a little bit more of an in-depth look at that particular embroidery, we send slacks and dongs. Actually, tsunami and dongs.

30:52.240 --> 31:15.240
It's an incredible work of art. Three months to build something like this. I thought it was digital, but it turns out that was just the template, and then an incredibly talented artist took the time to put every single thread in the real thing.

31:22.240 --> 31:46.740
Can you check if it's actually so flat?

31:46.740 --> 31:49.660
I'm telling you, like this almost looks like a painting at first,

31:49.660 --> 31:56.380
like a woodcut painting kind of thing, but it's real. It's all threads and it's a gorgeous tapestry.

31:56.380 --> 32:00.540
This art form has had to be preserved for thousands of years and the fact that there are still

32:00.540 --> 32:05.980
artisans creating it to this day is truly impressive. I was hoping I could ask you about

32:05.980 --> 32:11.500
some of the specific themes that they threw in. So I'm noticing here there are pine branches on

32:11.500 --> 32:16.300
the left side and then on the right side there are plum blossoms. What's the significance of

32:16.300 --> 32:22.540
of that. So these are symbolizes some very good quality personalities about strength, about

32:22.540 --> 32:28.980
resilience, about never give up perseverance. Yes. I see. And then how about we got the tides

32:28.980 --> 32:33.380
at the bottom and then clouds all the way at the top. These are just in Chinese we

32:33.380 --> 32:39.660
call that ji xiang. So it's kind of like a good fortune and it's just blessing. I see.

32:39.660 --> 32:43.780
And then of course the entire design as a whole, I know we pointed it out how flat

32:43.780 --> 32:49.100
But I want you to see that the effort it takes to make all these things look like different colors

32:49.580 --> 32:57.100
The sheen of each of the threads as the light catches them and yet somehow you can still see shading on all of it

32:57.100 --> 33:19.100
It's an incredible work of art, but this is just the cloth version, the thread version. Tomorrow, we're going to find out who wins the real thing on the stage.

33:19.100 --> 33:24.100
We are here for a Su Xiu De Dun, but who will be the real Bu Xiu Dun?

33:24.100 --> 33:27.100
Which team will be the next? Let's look forward to it.

33:49.100 --> 34:00.100
We had to make some cuts here and there and it's a pretty hard road to get to this point, the final stages of the international as we look towards this bracket.

34:00.100 --> 34:09.100
Yeah, very, very tough bracket. Anybody can beat anybody on a good day. It's very sad that we have to, you know, send teams home, but unfortunately, this is a very tough bracket.

34:09.100 --> 34:12.240
international as we look towards this bracket.

34:12.240 --> 34:13.680
Yeah, very, very tough bracket.

34:13.680 --> 34:15.940
Anybody can beat anybody on a good day.

34:15.940 --> 34:18.280
It's very sad that we have to send teams home,

34:18.280 --> 34:20.420
but unfortunately, it's just a reality of competition.

34:20.420 --> 34:22.500
Somebody has to lose, somebody has to win.

34:22.500 --> 34:24.780
It doesn't mean the winner is always better than the loser.

34:24.780 --> 34:26.620
You just had a better day.

34:26.620 --> 34:29.580
And unfortunately, for a lot of the teams here,

34:29.580 --> 34:32.460
sometimes victory and losing is just

34:32.460 --> 34:35.700
a very, very small little detail.

34:35.700 --> 34:38.140
And you do something small, wrong in the draft,

34:38.140 --> 34:39.940
in the game and you just lose the game.

34:39.940 --> 34:41.540
You can see it from the amount of two ones, right?

34:41.540 --> 34:43.860
Like the fact that in the lower bracket round one,

34:43.860 --> 34:45.020
when you move towards, you know,

34:45.020 --> 34:46.500
boom boys in the game of Galaxy,

34:46.500 --> 34:48.740
the upper bracket is almost like every single moment,

34:48.740 --> 34:51.660
like one hero pick, one wrong smoke, one wrong play,

34:51.660 --> 34:53.900
and this whole bracket could have been so different.

34:53.900 --> 34:56.180
It isn't just a simple two-oh bracket,

34:56.180 --> 34:57.340
oh, look, we're in the final day,

34:57.340 --> 35:00.580
like this easy could have been a completely different story

35:00.580 --> 35:01.820
in the last two days.

35:01.820 --> 35:04.780
Every single vision series on the main stage

35:04.780 --> 35:06.100
has gone to three games.

35:06.100 --> 35:09.500
And this is the team that looks unbeatable, but they're really, really not.

35:10.100 --> 35:10.800
They are not.

35:10.800 --> 35:11.600
They're allergic to game 2.

35:11.600 --> 35:16.100
There's some weird thing in the water or something on game 2, but they've got that.

35:16.100 --> 35:18.200
The ghoul calls out to pick Puck.

35:18.200 --> 35:20.500
Puck is going to be so good, I promise.

35:20.500 --> 35:23.000
But the thing is I like the attitude they have.

35:23.000 --> 35:28.300
Do Kallis mention during the interview, they feel like even though sometimes in game 2s,

35:28.300 --> 35:32.300
they might have some problems, but he feels like for the team, it's good to play an extra game.

35:32.300 --> 35:33.700
So they could figure something out.

35:33.700 --> 35:36.100
They could try maybe a hero that they wanted to try.

35:36.100 --> 35:39.940
And it makes the team stronger over the course of the Playmore series.

35:39.940 --> 35:44.740
Yeah, I think also the coach has a big part to play in both series today,

35:44.740 --> 35:47.820
because adaptation will be the name of the game,

35:47.820 --> 35:51.980
especially in the best of five, which will be our grand finals.

35:51.980 --> 35:54.580
Now, yesterday we had quite some action,

35:54.580 --> 35:57.740
and of course we have one team seeded with that into the grand finals.

35:57.740 --> 35:58.940
And there's a couple of things,

35:58.940 --> 36:01.180
or maybe one thing you particularly should be aware of

36:01.180 --> 36:02.820
when you're looking at Team Vision.

36:03.700 --> 36:08.940
And that is the bear the bear tea gobs. Yeah, I'm so excited for the bear

36:08.940 --> 36:13.300
Honestly, I can't wait. I know everyone's talking about laundry it being like it was boring hero

36:13.300 --> 36:18.300
But not many teams actually looking to ban it in the first phase like spirit and yandex when we get to see them look safe

36:18.300 --> 36:23.180
And low bracket they don't value it as much but for vision of course a tannic when he gets access to the bear

36:23.180 --> 36:28.260
He's obviously gonna pick it and it's just hilarious like we're NTI and the main hero is not even on the map

36:28.260 --> 36:30.460
The bears doing all the work it takes over the game

36:30.460 --> 36:35.060
It hits building in three and a half seconds at the least supports in two and a half seconds. It is a bonkers hero

36:35.060 --> 36:39.380
I'm excited at TI some of the best heroes. They have to be tested

36:39.380 --> 36:41.940
They have to be beaten and vision have got to this stage

36:42.380 --> 36:45.740
Utilizing laundry it unlike other teams where they just kind of ignore it most of the time

36:45.740 --> 36:50.740
So in the finals whoever we see match against vision will they ban the bear?

36:50.740 --> 36:54.420
Are they gonna beat satanic spare? Is that a way that you can cripple this team?

36:54.420 --> 36:57.740
I'm just excited to see a grand finals themed around laundry

36:57.740 --> 37:04.740
the evolution of the bear which very fitting often gets represented as a panda bear as well. I mean when in China, you know, that's, uh,

37:04.740 --> 37:11.740
Go to change your last great great exit there. Yeah, that's gonna be a great story to follow. We'll watch the bear

37:11.740 --> 37:18.740
But there is a potential to great stories to follow because we don't know yet which one of the two teams will make it into that grand finals again vision

37:18.740 --> 37:22.740
But that's okay because both have a point to prove

37:22.740 --> 37:26.940
We're going to focus first on the off-lane situation.

37:26.940 --> 37:30.020
This is maybe a little bit more mellow.

37:30.020 --> 37:34.680
We got noticed in DM, noticed as part of Team Vision, and he's already sitting in the Grand

37:34.680 --> 37:35.680
Finals.

37:35.680 --> 37:40.180
And he was a player that was part of Yannex just a couple of months ago.

37:40.180 --> 37:44.180
And this player was already scouted out by Vision, and they're like, you know what?

37:44.180 --> 37:45.180
We want noticed.

37:45.180 --> 37:49.480
And noticed was like, actually, guys, I'm with Yannex, and it's going pretty well.

37:49.480 --> 37:52.080
So I'm going to stay here for now.

37:52.080 --> 37:57.720
And so Vision is like, okay, I guess we are already getting rid of our other offlaner,

37:57.720 --> 38:01.320
which was, by the way, DM was now in Yandex.

38:01.320 --> 38:05.280
But they're like, okay, we'll get a different offlaner for now until you change your mind.

38:05.280 --> 38:07.760
And at some point, notice, they were like, yeah, okay, let's do it.

38:07.760 --> 38:08.840
I'm joining Vision.

38:08.840 --> 38:13.920
And then DM was part of Vision, joined Yandex as a stand-in.

38:13.920 --> 38:17.560
They win a tournament, and everybody's like, okay, DM made the right decision.

38:17.560 --> 38:27.840
DM that chose correctly, but now it's noticed in the grand finals as he has a point to prove

38:27.840 --> 38:32.080
that between him and the MRAI, he is the one that comes out victorious.

38:32.080 --> 38:39.760
Yeah, there's so much story going on with like team Yandex, obviously, DM has something

38:39.760 --> 38:46.280
to prove here. I think the rest of the team is also extremely interesting. Chira Jr.,

38:46.280 --> 38:50.960
For example, he came from a little team called Cybru Goose and they got picked up by Yandex

38:50.960 --> 38:56.240
in 2025 and he was the only player of that roster that has maintained from then until

38:56.240 --> 38:57.240
now.

38:57.240 --> 38:59.400
This was a stack with a solo on it back then.

38:59.400 --> 39:04.120
But they picked up Soxa, they picked up Watson and Malady, who if you don't know, they

39:04.120 --> 39:09.400
are both two Kazakhstan players who were friends way back in like 2022.

39:09.400 --> 39:13.160
They first joined HellRaisers and played together, ended up splitting apart and then

39:13.160 --> 39:20.680
coming back together on GG and then moved from there to Yandex. These guys are awesome to watch

39:20.680 --> 39:27.400
play together and yes we have DM up against Nose is it. We're just gonna have a lot to prove a lot of

39:28.440 --> 39:34.840
things to uh I think all the right right right English right English is hard they need to get

39:34.840 --> 39:38.920
revenge up in the underground finals but they do have to get through spirit first which is

39:38.920 --> 39:44.520
going to be so difficult. Yes. And on the other side, if it's spirit that comes out ahead of this

39:44.520 --> 39:49.800
best of three, there is another story that takes president because we heard them say it already.

39:49.800 --> 39:53.320
And I know it might be controversial because there's also other kings and other princes,

39:53.320 --> 40:00.040
but it's key against prince master against students. Maybe there you go. I mean, I know,

40:00.040 --> 40:03.640
okay, of course, Yandex, they're an incredible team. And if they get to the grand finals,

40:03.640 --> 40:08.200
it is going to be a very, very good grand finals. The caliber of Yandex is insane.

40:08.920 --> 40:13.200
But if we get spirit versus vision, it is true cinema.

40:13.200 --> 40:14.600
It is peak of the year.

40:14.600 --> 40:17.920
Again, Yotaro, he is a player that has pretty much shaped

40:17.920 --> 40:19.640
the world of Dota in modern year.

40:19.640 --> 40:21.760
But then in the last couple, Sotanica steps up.

40:21.760 --> 40:23.400
When you talk about Dota nowadays,

40:23.400 --> 40:24.880
it's always, what has Sotanica done?

40:24.880 --> 40:25.720
What is he doing?

40:25.720 --> 40:27.760
Yotaro's there kind of looking in the shadows

40:27.760 --> 40:30.400
of Sotanica going, wait a second, that used to be me.

40:30.400 --> 40:31.640
And now in the lower bracket run,

40:31.640 --> 40:34.360
Yotaro's stepping up and going, no, I am the carry

40:34.360 --> 40:36.520
of Dota 2, do not take my crown.

40:36.520 --> 40:39.720
So just the idea of these two players going against each other,

40:39.720 --> 40:42.520
it just feels like the perfect story.

40:42.520 --> 40:44.200
But again, if it doesn't happen, the Andex,

40:44.200 --> 40:46.200
you are a very racer and competitor.

40:46.200 --> 40:49.800
But the storylines of those two teams would be a great grand-fathers.

40:49.800 --> 40:51.400
And the stats don't lie because everybody's like,

40:51.400 --> 40:55.000
ooh, Zatani is number one in everything, but Rhea, I saw that.

40:55.000 --> 40:56.920
I know. I mean, so here's the thing.

40:56.920 --> 40:58.520
They lost twice. Hmm.

40:59.720 --> 41:02.760
They are both equally matched carry players.

41:02.760 --> 41:04.520
Absolutely legendary this tournament.

41:04.520 --> 41:11.160
But there is one thing missing from Yotaro at this TI on his two TI wins.

41:11.800 --> 41:13.000
He shaved his head.

41:13.000 --> 41:13.800
Yeah!

41:13.800 --> 41:15.080
He shaved his head.

41:15.080 --> 41:17.720
Has anybody seen Team Spirit in the building yet?

41:17.720 --> 41:18.920
I haven't seen them.

41:18.920 --> 41:19.880
I haven't seen them either.

41:19.880 --> 41:22.360
I'm also looking around but there's obviously another station.

41:22.360 --> 41:23.880
It would be very awful.

41:23.880 --> 41:25.400
But also, separate to that by the way,

41:25.960 --> 41:29.080
I like the fact that if even if Yotaro doesn't go board,

41:29.080 --> 41:32.680
all three carries in the top three are like farmer carries

41:32.680 --> 41:36.680
that want to play for big net worth that want to be like I am the guy of the game

41:36.680 --> 41:38.920
like we're not seeing some weird little matter of like we're going to

41:38.920 --> 41:41.480
little squeak out a quick way and we're not going to do anything like that it's like

41:41.480 --> 41:45.320
the proper traditional carry are in all three teams

41:45.320 --> 41:49.880
superstition winter is that is that real because the two ta wins that it's already

41:49.880 --> 41:54.360
did say was that and he said it's to sacrifice it to the dota gods

41:54.360 --> 41:58.040
i'm a logical person you know so you know i i kind of really i don't really

41:58.040 --> 42:00.280
believe in that i know the vibes are important

42:00.280 --> 42:10.160
But speaking of like hard carries and whatnot, but Yatoro is the one that if something is going to change, maybe he doesn't want to go late game, you know, with his son, he's going to change the battle too.

42:10.160 --> 42:19.920
He's going to play in the early games. He might do that. I think he's a carry player that is involved over the course of years. He can play fast. He can play for his team. And yeah.

42:19.920 --> 42:26.760
And he is together with the collapse part of the two players that can be a three-time hopeful.

42:26.760 --> 42:32.320
And this is of course only taking players into consideration, not looking at coaches.

42:32.320 --> 42:39.120
And only two two-time hopefuls remain with Saxa and Laurel there on the bottom.

42:39.120 --> 42:46.320
And we'll see which one of these four players have a chance of making that happen in that grand finals.

42:46.320 --> 42:50.800
because Team Vision, nobody has won an international ever.

42:50.800 --> 42:53.160
So it would be their first time.

42:53.160 --> 42:57.480
Speaking of first time, it's not very frequent to go,

42:57.480 --> 43:00.160
but on the final day of the international,

43:00.160 --> 43:04.400
we have a lot of players that have their first TI,

43:04.400 --> 43:06.000
that they're being played.

43:06.000 --> 43:07.960
We use the term royal rotors.

43:07.960 --> 43:10.480
A royal rotor is if you get to your first international,

43:10.480 --> 43:11.680
you win it.

43:11.680 --> 43:13.280
There's been a couple of cases.

43:13.280 --> 43:14.720
Yeah, throughout the history of Dota,

43:14.720 --> 43:18.660
you see here. You can just

43:18.660 --> 43:19.360
have a bit of nostalgia as you

43:19.360 --> 43:20.560
look through this graphic, of

43:20.560 --> 43:22.560
course, like T I five Sumo again.

43:22.560 --> 43:23.360
Unfortunately, he has just

43:23.360 --> 43:26.560
retired, but tops in T I a skitter

43:26.560 --> 43:28.560
and 90 11. But right now T I

43:28.560 --> 43:30.560
15 both Malady from Yandex and

43:30.560 --> 43:32.560
not me from spirit. They are

43:32.560 --> 43:34.560
the two players available that

43:34.560 --> 43:36.560
can attend their first ti and

43:36.560 --> 43:38.560
then potentially lift the ages

43:38.560 --> 43:40.560
joining a incredible history of

43:40.560 --> 43:42.560
players as you see on the

43:42.560 --> 43:44.560
screen here. Yeah all of the

43:44.560 --> 43:47.840
They are icons of their year.

43:47.840 --> 43:48.920
Everybody remembers them.

43:48.920 --> 43:50.080
They have miracle runs.

43:50.080 --> 43:52.040
I mean, if you look at the first time Team Spirit

43:52.040 --> 43:54.240
took the ages, that was incredible.

43:54.240 --> 43:57.160
Four players that hadn't set foot on the main stage

43:57.160 --> 43:58.680
before able to deliver.

43:58.680 --> 44:01.760
It takes a lot from a player to be able to deliver

44:01.760 --> 44:04.140
on this main stage and let the crowd power you up

44:04.140 --> 44:07.000
rather than make you nervous and jittery potentially.

44:07.000 --> 44:09.360
And of course, there's also a chance

44:09.360 --> 44:11.520
that neither of the two players that are still in

44:11.520 --> 44:13.080
takes it as a vision.

44:13.080 --> 44:18.360
have tried before. All of those players have tried before and it's not their first rodeo here and

44:18.360 --> 44:22.440
there's one player in particular winter that you wanted to highlight with this in mind as well.

44:22.440 --> 44:28.360
It is potentially his second time lifting the ages. Laurel has had his splendid tournament.

44:28.360 --> 44:32.840
Yeah, he has, you know, over the course of the last couple of years, even when he won his

44:32.840 --> 44:37.720
first TI, people are always associated with, oh, he loses his lane, but he's very good from

44:37.720 --> 44:42.360
playing behind. He plays for the team a lot, but I think specifically during the playoffs here,

44:42.360 --> 44:47.640
he's shown that he can actually win his lane, especially yesterday he was showing GPK who's

44:47.640 --> 44:53.400
boss is absolutely dumpsoring GPK on the lane. And I think that itself, it's a huge reason why

44:53.400 --> 44:57.720
Team Spirit has been doing very, very well because they are used to losing their lanes,

44:57.720 --> 45:02.360
but somehow they are still finding a way to win the game. But right now, the game's easy, allows

45:02.360 --> 45:06.920
winning his lane. So Yathar was like, great, I can farm more creeps, I don't have to help my team.

45:06.920 --> 45:10.200
I mean, he was the solo killed Nisha, right, in the pango to Invoker. Okay, it's a very

45:10.200 --> 45:15.080
Pango favorite matchup, but still getting the kill, making it feel like, you know, I am the mid laner.

45:15.080 --> 45:18.920
I mean, wow, he's so aggressive. He's so tempo driven that when he gets through the lane and

45:18.920 --> 45:23.800
can see the map, he can do a lot of work. And yeah, right now he's in good form.

45:23.800 --> 45:27.560
Well, let's see what road he needs to take. I mean, the schedule is kind of like,

45:27.560 --> 45:31.320
you know what's coming, I think, when you're tuning in, but just for good

45:31.320 --> 45:36.600
order, our first series of the day is going to be Team Yandex versus Team Spirik. And then

45:36.600 --> 45:40.920
And the winner of that will be present in the grand finals.

45:40.920 --> 45:45.000
The team vision is already waiting for their opponent

45:45.000 --> 45:48.440
who will challenge the team that everybody has said

45:48.440 --> 45:49.920
is the strongest team here.

45:49.920 --> 45:52.960
Both teams have already taken games out of them.

45:52.960 --> 45:54.600
So that is interesting to note.

45:54.600 --> 45:55.760
Also interesting to note.

45:55.760 --> 45:57.800
And we've been keeping you up to date with this

45:57.800 --> 45:59.440
over the past few days.

45:59.440 --> 46:01.560
Everybody or a lot of people have been able to put in

46:01.560 --> 46:04.720
their predictions in the clients

46:04.720 --> 46:07.380
And not a lot of people had it correct.

46:07.380 --> 46:08.220
Let's be real.

46:08.220 --> 46:10.180
Yesterday at the start of the day,

46:10.180 --> 46:14.140
we had 0.2% of you guys still having it correct.

46:14.140 --> 46:14.980
You know what?

46:14.980 --> 46:16.220
There are a couple of people still popping up.

46:16.220 --> 46:18.180
Even two talents of the entire talent

46:18.180 --> 46:20.340
for all languages together still had it correct.

46:20.340 --> 46:21.940
Today, updated.

46:21.940 --> 46:24.500
Those two talents actually, they still have it correct.

46:24.500 --> 46:25.820
Oh, I thought it was 0%.

46:25.820 --> 46:26.820
No, no, it's not.

46:26.820 --> 46:28.860
And it's not even 0% overall.

46:29.740 --> 46:30.580
It's close.

46:30.580 --> 46:46.820
0.07% Wow. I can still get a terrain. It's brutal. This is more than last year, though.

46:46.820 --> 46:54.100
I think last year, nobody had to correct this point. So kudos if you're one of the 0.07%

46:54.100 --> 46:59.860
that has had their predictions correct. Do you think a lot of people had team vision

46:59.860 --> 47:05.760
regardless in that grand finals and their opponent. Well, it could have been anyone. We've heard

47:05.760 --> 47:10.800
everybody talk about this, Rea, how this international has been so even in terms of playing field.

47:10.800 --> 47:15.240
It has been so even. I genuinely think the predictions being that percentage is just

47:15.240 --> 47:20.280
because vision of providing the stable baseline of winning through the top of the bracket.

47:20.280 --> 47:24.520
I think most people probably put that and then it's just figuring out the rest. And

47:24.520 --> 47:28.600
then like whoever's remaining is like a enigma fanboy and got them going pretty nice

47:28.600 --> 47:33.360
and far and doing well and then after that it's all luck it's so luck I mean how

47:33.360 --> 47:37.440
can you predict the games have been amazing the games have been truly amazing

47:37.440 --> 47:41.800
and we are hoping that today can live up to the track record that we have got

47:41.800 --> 47:46.240
going here so far at this international this main stage has seen a lot of blood

47:46.240 --> 47:49.240
sweat and tears

47:49.240 --> 47:55.740
When the warning's coming, it's gonna see a whole lot more.

47:55.740 --> 48:00.540
Folks and dreams are gonna maybe come to life here at the stage behind us.

48:00.540 --> 48:04.300
Of course, there's a first step to be made because we do have already team vision in

48:04.300 --> 48:10.100
the grand finals, but we have to get this day started to find out which team will

48:10.100 --> 48:12.340
join them in the grand finals.

48:12.340 --> 48:24.340
The Aegis of Champions. It is the master pattern. The template of triumph.

48:24.340 --> 48:32.340
A sigil stitched from the threads of countless battles waged around the world.

48:32.340 --> 48:37.340
It is the shape that we strive for.

48:37.340 --> 48:42.340
The composition every hand aspires to create.

48:44.340 --> 48:54.340
The point where all paths converge as we bend our own lines of fate ever closer to the perfect design.

48:57.340 --> 49:04.340
Now we gather to witness those bold enough to seize the golden thread.

49:04.340 --> 49:11.340
To cheer every victory that holds their passion tighter.

49:11.340 --> 49:22.340
To live them by every moment that threatens to tear it all apart.

49:22.340 --> 49:28.340
The ages of champions awaits in Shanghai, China.

49:28.340 --> 49:34.340
A living tapestry that chronicles the legends of our past.

49:35.340 --> 49:39.340
Three teams compete for ultimate glory.

49:41.340 --> 49:46.340
Only one that sees is more allergy.

49:47.340 --> 49:50.340
Who will emerge victorious?

49:54.340 --> 49:57.340
The battle begins.

49:58.340 --> 50:16.600
It is electric here in the Oriental Sports Center as we are nearing the start of our

50:16.600 --> 50:19.200
first series of the day.

50:19.200 --> 50:24.000
On one side we'll have a team that people thought was down and out during the group

50:24.000 --> 50:28.920
stages but they have made a valiant road to get to this a very point it is team

50:28.920 --> 50:33.280
Yandex that struggle at the start but is rising up to the challenge their

50:33.280 --> 50:38.600
opponents are team spirit who also had their own struggles to overcome this

50:38.600 --> 50:43.200
time around let's get started with this one

50:54.000 --> 51:21.240
We got Watson, Shira Junior, DM, Saxa, Malady, and Coach Axel, and for Malady is the first

51:21.240 --> 51:27.480
time at the international formality leading the charge here is the first time stepping into that

51:27.480 --> 51:32.760
booth on the final day of the biggest tournament in the year and he gets the honor and pleasure

51:32.760 --> 51:37.160
of going up against TI's final boss, its team spirit.

51:51.240 --> 52:07.240
Team Spirit!

52:07.240 --> 52:15.240
The ultimate crowd favorite with the Atoroh, Laurel, Collabs, Nami, Groove, and Coach Moposhka.

52:15.240 --> 52:20.480
Team Spirit is a beast in Team Spirit TI form.

52:20.480 --> 52:23.920
They have done it twice already with different iterations

52:23.920 --> 52:28.360
and every single time, they're able to feel the electricity

52:28.360 --> 52:30.760
on the stage and to feel that momentum

52:30.760 --> 52:34.440
propel them forward into a grand best of five.

52:34.440 --> 52:37.600
But they have still got Yan next to Go through here

52:37.600 --> 52:41.560
before they can have another shot at Team Vision

52:41.560 --> 52:44.120
in those grand finals.

52:44.120 --> 52:53.240
a best of three here on this stage and I think we got our answer. All hairs still on. Yes,

52:53.240 --> 53:01.080
yes. Why? Why does he have hair? What is he doing? No. Okay. The important thing is though,

53:01.080 --> 53:11.560
not being bull decide. Yeah, the crowd clearly. Oh, that must that must give it give a little

53:11.560 --> 53:15.640
of advantage when they're playing in front of a crowd that has definitely got your name

53:15.640 --> 53:16.640
cheering.

53:16.640 --> 53:22.200
Well, I think it might help some players, you know, the players that are playing their

53:22.200 --> 53:26.600
first tier, that might be something that makes them nervous, you know, so for Yator,

53:26.600 --> 53:31.080
I'm sure he's a veteran, he knows, it doesn't affect him, I'm sure he feeds off the

53:31.080 --> 53:34.520
energy of the crowd, but for the newer players, maybe it's something that might

53:34.520 --> 53:36.680
make them nervous, especially not me.

53:36.680 --> 53:41.320
Oh, actually that guy is so interesting to listen to talk about Dota

53:42.280 --> 53:44.640
Because he originally was playing in like tier two

53:45.160 --> 53:49.160
And below Dota and move to spirit, which is a massive step up to tier one

53:49.240 --> 53:52.920
When asked about how that felt for him and if it was hard if it was nervous

53:52.920 --> 53:57.600
It was stressful. He was just like what's actually nicer because everyone's just playing better at tier one

53:57.600 --> 54:03.480
The wording is like way easier than it was before it says that everyone's moving into the right places on the map

54:03.480 --> 54:05.160
So it just feels great

54:05.160 --> 54:12.000
And in one of their vlogs about this TI they they asked him, you know, how do you feel about the stage?

54:12.000 --> 54:16.280
Are you nervous and he was just like see I just you know, I'm just feeling it out. It's okay

54:16.280 --> 54:19.360
It's nice. This guy is so solid. He is so calm

54:19.360 --> 54:22.040
I mean, they're very cool thing in donors like when you get to join a team

54:22.040 --> 54:25.720
That's like already doing their job like you get to just focus in yourself. You don't have anything

54:25.720 --> 54:29.120
Oh, I need why is that guy not doing this? Why not? We're doing that like what's the drop?

54:29.120 --> 54:33.640
What's this like him like he has joined like the perfect team to just try and become the best player

54:33.640 --> 54:39.640
he can and of course it is clearly working. I mean I also want to highlight about how big of a deal

54:39.640 --> 54:44.120
that is. When you really have a support player, you join a team that's already established.

54:44.120 --> 54:48.200
The reason why it's difficult because the early game is all about the supports and the mid laner.

54:48.200 --> 54:52.280
And if you're a core, you're joining a team. If everything is already there, the foundation is

54:52.280 --> 54:56.520
that it is not as difficult as the support. So what not me has accomplished here. It's

54:56.520 --> 55:01.160
totally amazing. The way he integrated into the team, the way he paired so well with

55:01.160 --> 55:04.600
everything is so amazing. It's such a short period of time.

55:04.600 --> 55:06.600
Apparently right before EWC as well,

55:06.600 --> 55:08.600
Roussai talking more than he was before,

55:08.600 --> 55:10.600
so I think that's also helping.

55:10.600 --> 55:12.600
I think they're making a lot of accommodations to make this a Pudu.

55:12.600 --> 55:14.600
It was so strong.

55:14.600 --> 55:16.600
Yeah, and it's working out great.

55:16.600 --> 55:18.600
We go from seeing two first timers on stage

55:18.600 --> 55:20.600
in Malady and not me to...

55:20.600 --> 55:22.600
I want to talk about the experience, guys,

55:22.600 --> 55:24.600
because we got DM right now

55:24.600 --> 55:26.600
on your screen, and he was here last year,

55:26.600 --> 55:28.600
and he did come top three.

55:28.600 --> 55:30.600
He came third.

55:30.600 --> 55:37.320
third last year with team vision so beating team spirit here would propel

55:37.320 --> 55:42.660
him into a position where he has overcome his previous result and I think

55:42.660 --> 55:48.060
that would definitely prove to him and to his team that he can do it but how

55:48.060 --> 55:52.180
good do you feel until you see your old team that's what you really want that's

55:52.180 --> 55:57.100
true we've seen the tips coming out against DM we've seen his name put in

55:57.100 --> 56:02.100
this guy has so much to prove

56:02.100 --> 56:03.100
all the haters will be writing

56:03.100 --> 56:04.100
their apology forms by the end

56:04.100 --> 56:05.100
of this tournament if he has his

56:05.100 --> 56:07.100
way. Yeah, as well, like

56:07.100 --> 56:08.100
saxophone screen, right? Like

56:08.100 --> 56:09.100
the fact that he spoke about,

56:09.100 --> 56:10.100
you know, no one's won three

56:10.100 --> 56:11.100
TI's. He really wants to

56:11.100 --> 56:13.100
achieve that. He's not talking

56:13.100 --> 56:14.100
about retirement unlike some

56:14.100 --> 56:15.100
of the other older pros, you

56:15.100 --> 56:17.100
know, my guy's locked in. He

56:17.100 --> 56:18.100
wants to win this one. He

56:18.100 --> 56:19.100
wants to win the next one

56:19.100 --> 56:20.100
and maybe another one after

56:20.100 --> 56:22.100
that. And he talks freely

56:22.100 --> 56:24.100
about why he has his own

56:24.100 --> 56:26.100
team and why he's separated

56:26.100 --> 56:29.900
team. We're going to get to

56:29.900 --> 56:31.700
the final day on T. I honestly

56:31.700 --> 56:33.700
no complaints at all. What he

56:33.700 --> 56:34.900
has done to the team, elevating

56:34.900 --> 56:36.300
the individual individual players,

56:36.300 --> 56:37.900
given in the confidence within

56:37.900 --> 56:39.100
the map play the macro

56:39.100 --> 56:40.300
understanding. Of course, we

56:40.300 --> 56:41.700
never truly understand like what

56:41.700 --> 56:43.300
he's truly done individually,

56:43.300 --> 56:45.700
but it just feels like it is just

56:45.700 --> 56:47.100
like the perfect addition and

56:47.100 --> 56:49.100
you know, it's just like the

56:49.100 --> 56:51.100
perfect addition. And you know,

56:51.100 --> 56:53.100
you know, you know, you know,

56:53.100 --> 56:55.100
you know, you know, you know,

56:55.100 --> 57:01.500
addition and yet Yandex it is a true like Titan name for this this entire season. I need to add

57:01.500 --> 57:06.460
something to that because he's playing with 33 Satsa and now he's playing with DM I feel like

57:06.460 --> 57:11.020
both of them have a lot of similarities like so he kind of understands how to play with an offlaner

57:11.020 --> 57:16.300
that is kind of semi greedy and I feel like that has helped him a lot when he moved to this team

57:16.300 --> 57:22.620
and he he's shown it kind of time again he knows how to enable his offlaner and one thing

57:22.620 --> 57:26.940
I think I lied about DM here at this tournament, especially during the last couple of days.

57:26.940 --> 57:29.180
I felt like he figured out what heroes he should be playing.

57:29.180 --> 57:30.180
He's one of those players.

57:30.180 --> 57:31.420
I know we don't like the Doom a lot.

57:31.420 --> 57:33.940
I know people are like talking about that.

57:33.940 --> 57:37.860
But he's one of the few players that had success with Dooms.

57:37.860 --> 57:41.580
And I think it's because he is not buying Midas.

57:41.580 --> 57:44.260
We mentioned that we did not like the Midas.

57:44.260 --> 57:47.380
And I like that he's playing Doom without buying Midas.

57:47.380 --> 57:48.380
That's good.

57:48.380 --> 57:49.860
It's working out for them.

57:49.860 --> 57:53.400
We also have to remember the importance of the series of spirit.

57:53.400 --> 57:59.140
This entire year, even if you look back towards 2025, Yandex has had spirits known the entire

57:59.140 --> 58:00.140
time.

58:00.140 --> 58:02.000
Nine series played.

58:02.000 --> 58:06.340
Only spirit has won a single series of the nine.

58:06.340 --> 58:11.580
In those, spirit has only ever won, in the losing ones, two games total.

58:11.580 --> 58:14.260
Of all the best of threes, the best of five, two games.

58:14.260 --> 58:19.820
In this matchup, it really is David versus Goliath, where Yandex is the Goliath.

58:19.820 --> 58:29.320
So now it's for Spirit, using their TI form, using the shape that they're in to finally overcome a team that has just pretty much had Spirit's number since their inception.

58:29.320 --> 58:36.320
I mean I think today it's an entirely different story. This patch, personally I feel like it favors Spirit a lot the way they're playing.

58:36.320 --> 58:44.820
They have a true heart carry. I mean Yandex also has a true heart carry, but I think with how their mid laners are functioning, especially if you compare Xeha, Zhiyuan and Lao,

58:44.820 --> 58:50.340
I think Lao has proven that he is capable of playing any type of mid laners and I think

58:50.340 --> 58:56.700
the advantage that Lao has over Shira Junya here is he is able to play the tempo making

58:56.700 --> 58:58.900
mid laners a little bit better than Shira Junya.

58:58.900 --> 59:03.420
I think Shira Junya is more comfortable with the carry from mid heroes like Invoker for example.

59:03.420 --> 59:07.500
I would like to give a shout out though because he was playing us for it again and winning

59:07.500 --> 59:10.340
with it when I think in the group stage especially he looked very weak on it.

59:10.340 --> 59:13.780
So I do think Tier Junior has leveled up massively coming into this main stage.

59:13.780 --> 59:20.300
Yeah, this main stage is going to be a good one, but a lot of it yesterday we talked about

59:20.300 --> 59:28.660
is how much of it was decided in the booth before the horn sounded for the game itself.

59:28.660 --> 59:32.700
A lot of it is decided in the draft.

59:32.700 --> 59:41.700
Team Young Dex versus Team Spirit, game one.

59:45.700 --> 59:49.700
We are heading into the draft of the first game of the lower record finals.

59:49.700 --> 59:52.700
We got Young Dex on the radiant side, Team Spirit on the dire side.

59:52.700 --> 59:56.700
There's one hero in particular we want to just quickly highlight here, Winter,

59:56.700 --> 01:00:01.700
because there's a Winter Wyvern and we have seen that so many times yesterday

01:00:01.700 --> 01:00:09.300
day and it was so successful and especially these games go so long a BKB piercing disabled

01:00:09.300 --> 01:00:11.300
so strong.

01:00:11.300 --> 01:00:16.440
Yeah Wyvern is one of the heroes that has been popping off so much the remaining teams all

01:00:16.440 --> 01:00:20.540
three of the remaining teams right now they have a very very dedicated Wyvern player it's

01:00:20.540 --> 01:00:24.860
not a hero that you can just oh everyone else is playing I guess I'm just gonna play

01:00:24.860 --> 01:00:29.100
it if you have not been practicing this hero it is going to be very difficult for

01:00:29.100 --> 01:00:32.260
for you to just pick up a hero like Wyvern mid-event.

01:00:32.260 --> 01:00:35.780
And this is where you can see the difference between the low-frocket final drafts, towards

01:00:35.780 --> 01:00:37.020
the grand final drafts.

01:00:37.020 --> 01:00:41.220
We have Winter Wyvern through the pool, there's Lina through the pool, Lone Druid, Ember,

01:00:41.220 --> 01:00:44.740
like the drafts are going to be completely different as every game progresses and every

01:00:44.740 --> 01:00:45.740
series progresses.

01:00:45.740 --> 01:00:52.780
I feel like the Wyvern has seen such a rise recently is because one of her arch-nemesis

01:00:52.780 --> 01:00:54.060
got nerfed a lot, Snapfire.

01:00:54.060 --> 01:00:57.900
I think Snapfire was picked so much the last two months, and it's very hard

01:00:57.900 --> 01:01:01.060
to play Wyvern into that snipe because you can't save with the curse and you can't really

01:01:01.060 --> 01:01:06.460
get to her because she just launches her Mortimer's a mile away and you don't see her. So right

01:01:06.460 --> 01:01:10.740
now you don't see that old granny so Wyvern's in a good spot.

01:01:10.740 --> 01:01:16.460
Spirit have prioritised the Wyvern as well and like if they're last five games, five

01:01:16.460 --> 01:01:21.940
matches, they've taken Wyvern on first for themselves and four of them. It's such

01:01:21.940 --> 01:01:26.460
a high priority pick and it does obviously let Yandex take the Nature's Prophet which

01:01:26.460 --> 01:01:28.460
which I think Spirit have also been playing really well with.

01:01:29.300 --> 01:01:31.580
Yeah, I mean the Nature of the Prophet is going to be quite nice into Wyvern.

01:01:31.580 --> 01:01:35.860
Naturally in laning phase, Wyvern excels from using the Arctic Burn chasing down the lane.

01:01:35.860 --> 01:01:39.100
So once you have stepped a bit too far, Prophet can TP in,

01:01:39.100 --> 01:01:41.100
you get a very cheap kill in the Winter Wyvern.

01:01:41.100 --> 01:01:44.940
Sure, there will be a cold embrace to kind of keep yourself alive for an extra 4-5 seconds,

01:01:44.940 --> 01:01:48.860
but realistically, Nature of the Prophet can punish this Wyvern early on.

01:01:48.860 --> 01:01:51.900
Sure, later on the qualities that you both mentioned will come into play,

01:01:51.900 --> 01:01:55.340
but I just feel that Yandex are going to just crank up the tempo a little bit

01:01:55.340 --> 01:01:57.440
and try and threaten the early game we went to Wyvern,

01:01:57.440 --> 01:01:59.740
something that we haven't really seen been done yet,

01:01:59.740 --> 01:02:01.240
at least in the last couple of days.

01:02:01.240 --> 01:02:04.740
I think another thing I really like about Natures into Wyvern is

01:02:04.740 --> 01:02:08.140
usually a lot of these fights break out, someone's holding position,

01:02:08.140 --> 01:02:11.440
you get to, you know, break a smoke, you see the look of the fight,

01:02:11.440 --> 01:02:15.740
and then Wyvern will ult to, you know, disengage it or set their team up.

01:02:15.740 --> 01:02:18.340
Natures doesn't have to be in that initial smoke break,

01:02:18.340 --> 01:02:19.640
because they can just teleport in.

01:02:19.640 --> 01:02:22.740
So Natures can get whatever position they like in the fight,

01:02:22.740 --> 01:02:29.740
which really makes Wyvern have to either wait a little bit longer or use their spells and then not be able to stop nature's winning.

01:02:29.740 --> 01:02:31.740
Yeah, that's actually a really really good point.

01:02:31.740 --> 01:02:37.240
Like whenever I'm playing Wyvern, I really hate MP, playing against MP in a teamfight because I can never see him.

01:02:37.240 --> 01:02:42.240
Because he never shows up initially and usually when you're playing Wyvern, you're very very focused on where is the enemy carry.

01:02:42.240 --> 01:02:47.740
I want to use the ultimate so that he kills one of his teammates or at least I use my ultimate to stop him during his BKB.

01:02:47.740 --> 01:02:51.240
And whenever I play against MP, I don't see him and I have to hide.

01:02:51.240 --> 01:02:57.320
what you need to do in this situation as Wyvern is your items you have to buy more mobility items

01:02:57.320 --> 01:03:02.280
the dagger the four stars you can't afford to be too greedy you have to get items that will allow

01:03:02.280 --> 01:03:07.080
you to kite to wait until the MP shows up. It also nations has to shock right first world growth

01:03:07.080 --> 01:03:10.680
about to see the wyvern as well so sometimes like you just TP in and then the wyverns like

01:03:10.680 --> 01:03:16.040
oh watch it ah no you got me you know it's like it can be very annoying even way the yandex

01:03:16.040 --> 01:03:21.480
progressive draft. Finally, we're seeing the Slug Band into Ember Pit. If you want to pick Ember,

01:03:21.480 --> 01:03:27.800
this is 2026, the year of banning Slug. Not Huskars, not Monkey Day. This is the new guy on the block

01:03:27.800 --> 01:03:32.280
that you got to ban when you pick Ember. But of course, there still are some of the classics

01:03:32.280 --> 01:03:35.960
that I just mentioned. We'll see how Spirit want to try and approach the Ember. There's the

01:03:35.960 --> 01:03:40.520
Pucks, the Huskars, whatever. But I believe it's something that I was kind of thinking

01:03:40.520 --> 01:03:45.320
yesterday as well. I felt like teams were not doing a very good job at countering the Wyvern.

01:03:45.320 --> 01:03:48.400
and they're just like, oh, it's just a position 5 hero, whatever, you know.

01:03:48.400 --> 01:03:52.360
But I think that is not really the ideal situation and draft for them.

01:03:52.360 --> 01:03:54.480
You need to pick a hero to deal with the Wyvern,

01:03:54.480 --> 01:03:57.960
and I think Ember Spirit is one of the best heroes against Wyvern

01:03:57.960 --> 01:03:59.440
because you build vessels,

01:03:59.440 --> 01:04:03.200
and it's very hard for the Wyverns to actually target you in the teamfights,

01:04:03.200 --> 01:04:05.520
and you can always find him because you're so mobile.

01:04:05.520 --> 01:04:08.400
And having one hero to specifically target down a Wyvern

01:04:08.400 --> 01:04:10.200
is very important in the teamfights.

01:04:10.200 --> 01:04:13.160
And already, Spirit, they don't really care about Yandex's draft too much

01:04:13.160 --> 01:04:14.800
because they're trying to go for,

01:04:14.800 --> 01:04:20.220
Okay, if you're going to jump us, we want to find ways to jump you because now the Pangalir's job and when Spirit is in true form,

01:04:20.220 --> 01:04:24.320
they will always offer up one hero for information, everyone else will kind of hold position.

01:04:24.320 --> 01:04:26.480
When they understand the fight, that's when they go in.

01:04:26.480 --> 01:04:32.080
So this is where the Pangalir pick makes sense because he's going to roll through, pressure the Prophet, force the Ember to waste a Remnant,

01:04:32.080 --> 01:04:36.840
Winter Wive will be hiding on the side and only when they see the fight, that's when they'll collapse.

01:04:36.840 --> 01:04:41.400
It's the same thing for Winner as well, but they can just kind of hug, wait and keep kiting back the fight.

01:04:41.400 --> 01:04:46.740
And this is an extremely good pick here by Spirit. They have utilised this Wyvern plus Velo Duel before.

01:04:46.740 --> 01:04:50.740
This is not the first time, but I especially like the Velo into the Ember Spirit.

01:04:50.740 --> 01:04:57.800
Because Velo is, I feel like, the best position for hero right now against Ember Spirit because of how your hero interacts with

01:04:57.800 --> 01:05:03.440
and ganks Ember Spirit with your roots and your fear and it's very natural for you to build a Vessel,

01:05:03.440 --> 01:05:07.580
sorry, not the Vessel, but the Eul's so that you can actually target the Ember Spirit.

01:05:07.580 --> 01:05:12.340
Because one thing about Ember is usually in a game where you do not have the right catch against this hero.

01:05:12.340 --> 01:05:15.860
He can be extremely obnoxious. He's cutting your waves. He's farming in front of the tower.

01:05:15.860 --> 01:05:19.140
And you're supposed to be like, what do we do? We can't kill him. We can't touch him.

01:05:19.140 --> 01:05:21.700
And he's just pressuring you all over the map.

01:05:21.700 --> 01:05:25.620
And I really like that having an answer right away from the draft against this Ember.

01:05:26.260 --> 01:05:30.780
The only thing I'm slightly wary of is if they were to pick something like Marana now on Yandex,

01:05:30.780 --> 01:05:32.740
which pairs really nicely with Ember.

01:05:32.740 --> 01:05:36.780
that's a good idea. Well,

01:05:36.780 --> 01:05:38.380
something she's so effective at

01:05:38.380 --> 01:05:38.980
is like breaking smokes or

01:05:38.980 --> 01:05:40.820
being at the front because

01:05:40.820 --> 01:05:42.420
she's so difficult to kill.

01:05:42.420 --> 01:05:43.620
Obviously if she gets the

01:05:43.620 --> 01:05:45.780
yields, it's okay, but embers

01:05:45.780 --> 01:05:46.780
route persists even when she

01:05:46.780 --> 01:05:47.780
goes into the shadow realm and

01:05:47.780 --> 01:05:49.780
you can just kill her with an

01:05:49.780 --> 01:05:50.820
ember Marana combo. I think

01:05:50.820 --> 01:05:51.820
that will make it really hard

01:05:51.820 --> 01:05:54.820
for her to play. I like the

01:05:54.820 --> 01:05:56.820
idea of the Marana, especially

01:05:56.820 --> 01:05:57.820
when spirits will be playing

01:05:57.820 --> 01:05:58.820
for a lot of kiting and

01:05:58.820 --> 01:05:59.820
information in the fight,

01:05:59.820 --> 01:06:00.820
throwing in invisibility,

01:06:00.820 --> 01:06:01.820
other layers to Yandex's

01:06:01.820 --> 01:06:06.800
And they are kind of protecting GM in the draft quite nicely. He will be getting

01:06:06.800 --> 01:06:08.820
overall last pick.

01:06:08.820 --> 01:06:10.820
You know, I wonder like...

01:06:14.820 --> 01:06:17.820
It was a couple of long days ago, that's what it's like.

01:06:19.820 --> 01:06:20.820
Hey!

01:06:20.820 --> 01:06:22.820
I don't even know what's happening with the doors.

01:06:23.820 --> 01:06:25.820
And he got support, yeah.

01:06:26.820 --> 01:06:28.820
But why is the MP good as a support here?

01:06:28.820 --> 01:06:31.900
They want the MP to lean into the Wyvern.

01:06:31.900 --> 01:06:34.700
Saksa has played this tournament, which is nice.

01:06:34.700 --> 01:06:35.200
Yeah.

01:06:35.200 --> 01:06:38.500
Saksa is so annoying on the Nature's Prophet, actually.

01:06:38.500 --> 01:06:40.500
No, he is the most annoying.

01:06:40.500 --> 01:06:44.100
Like him and my class are the most annoying supports right now.

01:06:44.100 --> 01:06:46.100
Don't forget there are the, of course,

01:06:46.100 --> 01:06:47.100
you just go for the vessel build,

01:06:47.100 --> 01:06:48.700
you slice the shard that we mentioned already.

01:06:48.700 --> 01:06:51.940
The vision went to Wyvern, the positioning, it exploits.

01:06:51.940 --> 01:06:53.820
And on top of that, when you,

01:06:53.820 --> 01:06:55.580
obviously, found your trees on the map,

01:06:55.580 --> 01:06:57.660
if you just start TPing and blocking these side counts,

01:06:57.660 --> 01:07:02.880
I've been so prevalent throughout the entirety of TI if Saksa wants to be blocking camps and just doing all this vision

01:07:03.080 --> 01:07:04.880
Shanagans profit can do it

01:07:04.880 --> 01:07:08.220
But the only reason this will work is if the rest of the draft is stable

01:07:08.220 --> 01:07:13.840
And then he can play into the lanes if you have losing lanes and a support profit your game is already over

01:07:13.840 --> 01:07:17.000
Yeah, this is really really important when you're playing MP support

01:07:17.000 --> 01:07:22.400
You do not want your lane matchups to be bad because it can easily go really really bad and you feel like

01:07:22.400 --> 01:07:30.400
Guys, I think I cannot do anything, so I'm just gonna cut some waves, I'm gonna jungle, I'm gonna cut some waves, and that's it you know.

01:07:30.400 --> 01:07:35.400
That's where of course, you know, they found the slot, picked the Ember, they feel like they got that lane.

01:07:35.400 --> 01:07:38.400
Picking Shadow Fiends, he can play pretty much most lanes.

01:07:38.400 --> 01:07:46.400
Yeah, but the thing is they can just move the pango to the off lane and make sure they get a lane winner against the Ember to kind of mess up what the MP is gonna do here.

01:07:46.400 --> 01:07:57.400
But then the MP can just TP to mid, you pick an off lane on last pick for DM, and then you just create this like dual lane middle, like mid at 2 onwards, with DM having security's first couple waves.

01:07:57.400 --> 01:07:59.400
I feel like Yannix has solutions.

01:08:00.400 --> 01:08:03.400
Do they have a solution to the Terribly?

01:08:04.400 --> 01:08:11.400
Not yet. The Terribly is the solution to the SF. It's very very good against the SF, you copy him, you make a reflection, you get the aura.

01:08:11.400 --> 01:08:17.740
SF can never fight TB in the late game, but fortunately SF is one of the fastest call in the early game

01:08:17.740 --> 01:08:19.540
TB is not as strong in the early game

01:08:19.540 --> 01:08:22.620
So you have to really take advantage of that early strength of the hero

01:08:22.620 --> 01:08:26.780
You need to win your lane and you get your objectives faster and you take control of the map

01:08:26.780 --> 01:08:33.060
The Spirit's lineup is it's like as long as they just are relaxed to 20 minutes plus like the game will play itself for them

01:08:33.060 --> 01:08:37.500
For the Yandex, I am looking at the supports if you have a prophet and Marana in the early game

01:08:37.500 --> 01:08:43.460
But if they don't step up and open up the ruins for em, but to give them the levels make the stacks for shadow fiend to get them online

01:08:43.700 --> 01:08:47.300
Their game can disappear very quickly. They don't have this big team fight to lean on

01:08:47.300 --> 01:08:49.420
They don't have this kind of insurance built into them

01:08:49.560 --> 01:08:53.340
So I'm looking at the support of the andex like they have to really want this game

01:08:53.340 --> 01:08:56.380
this is why I got a little confused at the shadow fiend pick because

01:08:57.380 --> 01:08:59.420
You when you move nature's property support

01:08:59.420 --> 01:09:03.800
It makes your next support pick feel kind of weird because Marana makes the most sense of play with

01:09:03.800 --> 01:09:08.600
But you also typically want to play a melee support with Shadowfiend for the lane

01:09:08.840 --> 01:09:11.240
That kind of removes the ability for them to do that

01:09:11.240 --> 01:09:16.200
Are they going to move Saksa to play Paws 5 for lane with Shadowfiend when you use the Triance to kind of protect him?

01:09:16.200 --> 01:09:20.200
But even then it's like what is your duo you have no real lockdown for this terrible lane

01:09:20.200 --> 01:09:23.520
He's gonna get Sunderoth like every fight. We saw this lane yesterday

01:09:23.520 --> 01:09:28.120
Didn't we like twice I think SF plus Mirana and it kind of feels like it's very easy to gank

01:09:28.120 --> 01:09:32.720
But especially you're playing in survival an exceptional hero at gate coming through the gates coming from behind

01:09:32.720 --> 01:09:37.160
embouching the SF, what is the Murana gonna do? I think the best thing you can

01:09:37.160 --> 01:09:41.200
hope for is you place a ward defensively early, you anticipate the move and you

01:09:41.200 --> 01:09:45.320
hopefully you see him coming because if you don't see him coming your SF is

01:09:45.320 --> 01:09:51.160
going to die very easily. Okay, Bandstand talk. It's like for DM and Offlane,

01:09:51.160 --> 01:09:56.880
there's potentially... There's Darkseer right? No, Band and Flushface. I was really

01:09:56.880 --> 01:09:59.960
wanting Darkseer and I reminded myself, ah look at the top, there's very early

01:09:59.960 --> 01:10:01.960
B-Bands from Spirit, they were preparing themselves.

01:10:01.960 --> 01:10:03.960
He's going to say, give me build.

01:10:05.960 --> 01:10:10.960
It might just come out, looks like both teams could use enough lane, of course Pango can still swap about.

01:10:10.960 --> 01:10:14.960
I mean there's a world where they could still lago for Yandex and Last Pick.

01:10:14.960 --> 01:10:18.960
Again, depends on what Spirit go for, but then let you can buff up your Ember.

01:10:18.960 --> 01:10:20.960
You have pretty decent laning against the Terrorblade.

01:10:20.960 --> 01:10:23.960
If he ever steps up too far, then you can invite, you know, all this pressure.

01:10:23.960 --> 01:10:26.960
Moron would come through Twin Gate, you go for the kill.

01:10:26.960 --> 01:10:30.420
I could I could see a world you'll have the lick to I mean when do I'm just keep

01:10:30.420 --> 01:10:35.600
replying it but I think it looks like a terrible lot of just they're missing

01:10:35.600 --> 01:10:39.800
lockdown like solid reliable lockdown and I don't think log of it's a bit

01:10:39.800 --> 01:10:44.320
so greedy it's more like if they want to go through tempo but yes a lot of stun

01:10:44.320 --> 01:10:47.360
would be a lot simpler for them to play for a hundred percent of a 14th

01:10:47.360 --> 01:10:50.480
straight it's just gonna be a lot easier for them to finalize their

01:10:50.480 --> 01:10:53.120
draft here they have team fight there's some catch there's some

01:10:53.120 --> 01:10:58.840
decent lane that wave clear with the GB so it's easier for them to finish up their draft

01:10:58.840 --> 01:11:01.160
they could do pangol off lane pangol mid

01:11:01.160 --> 01:11:05.920
guys you're missing underlords still in the pool they can just go for like a simple underlord

01:11:05.920 --> 01:11:07.960
the humble underlord

01:11:07.960 --> 01:11:08.960
the humble underlord

01:11:08.960 --> 01:11:12.600
yeah it's very very very good against ember spirit here

01:11:12.600 --> 01:11:16.000
oh don't worry sorry spirit you're into the underlord i take it back they cannot

01:11:16.000 --> 01:11:17.000
underlord anymore

01:11:17.000 --> 01:11:19.000
oh instant timber

01:11:19.000 --> 01:11:25.640
I mean this, I mean this team is kind of decent, I can see why they insta-picked it but I can overall this draft

01:11:26.440 --> 01:11:32.440
Out of 10 games, I'm gonna say I prefer to play on Spirit's lineup, maybe 8 games at least, 8 to 9 games

01:11:32.440 --> 01:11:37.880
I think they have the ease of execution on their side, they have the stability, they have the lane

01:11:37.880 --> 01:11:42.200
And the owners is gonna be on Yandex, they last pick this team but they need to win the lanes

01:11:42.200 --> 01:11:46.040
If they don't win their lanes, their heroes are gonna struggle to find synergy together

01:11:46.040 --> 01:11:52.340
I think we saw spirit play a very similar line up against Liquid who also last picked a timber like this

01:11:52.340 --> 01:11:54.340
And it just felt like he couldn't play

01:11:55.220 --> 01:12:02.560
Between get it like the wyvernol and the pangol roll. I never really saw timbers way into a fight. Yeah, they have no

01:12:03.720 --> 01:12:04.960
proper

01:12:04.960 --> 01:12:08.040
Initiation especially they just buy low assault on spirit or a force after

01:12:08.640 --> 01:12:14.340
Move you out of the path of the chains arrow. I don't see how Yandex can lock you down

01:12:14.340 --> 01:12:19.460
The main thing for Yandex with this type of draft is they need to make sure that they are like the kings of the laning phase

01:12:19.460 --> 01:12:23.980
They have to demolish that they need to bring to your journey into the game play through DMs early timings

01:12:23.980 --> 01:12:30.540
This cannot be a timber that AFK farms like sans sky BKB and three items like every single item time for Yandex has to be a

01:12:30.540 --> 01:12:34.500
Statement across the map and then you keep punishing spirit. Don't allow them to get to the late game

01:12:34.620 --> 01:12:37.940
You know that I feel like as much as it's a very difficult draft for Yandex

01:12:37.940 --> 01:12:41.340
They have the skill to be able to put it off, but it is difficult

01:12:41.340 --> 01:12:43.580
It is a lot easier for spirit to play this game

01:12:43.580 --> 01:12:50.580
Yeah, it seems like Team Spirits kind of boxed Yandex a little bit into a corner with the drafts,

01:12:50.580 --> 01:12:54.580
especially having the same result as the drafts against Team Liquid as Raid mentioned yesterday,

01:12:54.580 --> 01:12:57.580
which did not play out very well for Team Liquid at all.

01:12:57.580 --> 01:13:03.580
We know that Yandex has to be active in this first game, especially in the first 20 minutes.

01:13:03.580 --> 01:13:06.580
How is Spirit going to do in those first 20 minutes? Do they have tools to answer that aggression?

01:13:06.580 --> 01:13:10.580
Yeah, they have a lot of wave push, wave D shove, and waves to help each other.

01:13:10.580 --> 01:13:12.580
So I think we're very prepared for this.

01:13:12.580 --> 01:13:16.580
Well, let's see how prepared they are as we're heading over to Slatsford coach interview

01:13:18.340 --> 01:13:23.380
Absolutely, thank you so much. We are here with us. So good to see you here on the semifinals

01:13:23.780 --> 01:13:27.620
No, we're back very very exciting. How do you think we did in the draft?

01:13:27.700 --> 01:13:32.500
We have a couple favorite heroes coming up from Team Spirit, but you guys got some of yours as well

01:13:33.460 --> 01:13:39.540
I think that's a pretty good CB game and a Seattle CB like with my chip into the S

01:13:39.540 --> 01:13:45.540
I think Spirit is happy with the drop, but they also have a lot of hours, and let's see if we're going to come up with another win.

01:13:45.540 --> 01:13:54.540
What's the number one thing that this team needs to do to survive? The Andex has faced off against Spirit before. Is it lanes? Is it team fight? What is important in this one?

01:13:54.540 --> 01:13:55.540
For Spirit?

01:13:55.540 --> 01:14:00.540
No, for you! I don't care about Spirit! I mean, they got to lose! This is your...

01:14:00.540 --> 01:14:06.540
I think they need to survive then. I think the longer game goes, the better it is for us.

01:14:06.540 --> 01:14:09.540
And the landing stage of course is very important.

01:14:09.540 --> 01:14:12.540
We tend to have, I would say, favorite matchups

01:14:12.540 --> 01:14:15.540
in at least two other freelance, but not so big

01:14:15.540 --> 01:14:17.540
and it's very skill dependent, so we'll see.

01:14:17.540 --> 01:14:19.540
Alright, fantastic.

01:14:19.540 --> 01:14:21.540
Now we did see some last picked Timbersaws coming out yesterday.

01:14:21.540 --> 01:14:23.540
It didn't work out for Liquid.

01:14:23.540 --> 01:14:24.540
How is this one different?

01:14:24.540 --> 01:14:26.540
Why is Timbersaw good in this one?

01:14:26.540 --> 01:14:30.540
They mainly have physical damage like pangu tb

01:14:30.540 --> 01:14:33.540
and under is historically a matchup

01:14:33.540 --> 01:14:38.540
I think that's all. I think it's, if, if Timber is 24 peak, uh, real, it's, it's game.

01:14:38.540 --> 01:14:41.540
All right. Well, thank you so much for the great insight. We'll go ahead and see.

01:14:41.540 --> 01:14:45.540
If game one works out, in the end, X is favorite. Let's head to the game.

01:14:45.540 --> 01:14:48.540
Thank you so much indeed, Slacks, and we're getting ready to go into this.

01:14:48.540 --> 01:14:52.540
When you hear the last pick, Timber saw, yep, feeling like it's going to be good.

01:14:52.540 --> 01:14:55.540
All that physical damage. We'll see how they do it though.

01:14:55.540 --> 01:14:58.540
Yeah, that is the question here. There's definitely some good parts of it.

01:14:58.540 --> 01:15:01.540
Some questions, as he said, you know, they're very, very good.

01:15:01.540 --> 01:15:03.540
That's a bit some questions, as he said.

01:15:03.540 --> 01:15:08.540
You know, there's some problems with the Underward heading later in the game, but they hit their specific timing.

01:15:08.540 --> 01:15:14.540
The matchup is good for them, good for Tien heading into the legendary Yotaro terribly.

01:15:14.540 --> 01:15:18.540
Yeah, this is the one that you want to watch out for.

01:15:18.540 --> 01:15:22.540
This man has made millions of dollars playing this hero,

01:15:22.540 --> 01:15:27.540
and looking to try and do it again here on Grand Finals Day,

01:15:27.540 --> 01:15:32.980
trying to make it to that last one. And this is not the way that you wanted to start his DM chase down.

01:15:32.980 --> 01:15:40.340
Yatoro finds him the last hit. Yes. Start the day off with a first blood. Sox will get some vengeance, but

01:15:40.980 --> 01:15:46.660
but a pittance. Fair to take you down that Timbersaw nice and early here. Exactly what you want to

01:15:46.660 --> 01:15:50.660
see. Witness went to Wyvern. I mean coming into today, I feel like this was the number one hero

01:15:50.660 --> 01:15:54.020
that everyone is looking at. Just look at the way the fans are working up. We've got so many

01:15:54.020 --> 01:16:06.020
problematic heroes, and with or not their fan, this Wyvern does fairly well with most of the top tier heroes and manages to slip through and again to him, right back in the lane, right back in the hole.

01:16:06.020 --> 01:16:14.020
He's down, great, he got a few towards him early on and now turning to their sights, Zoxa keeps him pressured underneath the tower.

01:16:14.020 --> 01:16:22.020
I mean this is the power of Metamorphosis, getting that first kill on DM without having to use it, that was the real backbreaker at that point.

01:16:22.020 --> 01:16:24.820
And Terriblade, as you can see, starts with 11 armor here.

01:16:24.820 --> 01:16:28.900
So when you hit this level 1 heal on the Winter Wyber, the value is just absolutely disgusting.

01:16:28.900 --> 01:16:36.900
Right? Like, every bit of HP is so much value on this hero, so juicing him right back up to full HP like that, it makes the trade so difficult to re-end that.

01:16:36.900 --> 01:16:41.300
Well, and obviously that's going to change over as DM starts to get more of these levels, right?

01:16:41.300 --> 01:16:49.140
This Timbersaw traditionally a counter to the Terriblade, but as you can see, if you can get off to an early start,

01:16:49.140 --> 01:16:52.940
particularly having like this nature to stop it as a support.

01:16:52.940 --> 01:16:53.440
Yep.

01:16:53.440 --> 01:16:57.440
Not providing a ton at the early stages from Soxa to try and mess with the TV.

01:16:57.440 --> 01:17:00.440
It's ironic. It's brought down bottom.

01:17:00.440 --> 01:17:05.240
Yeah, this is not the forte of the hero, and really not where Soxa truly shines as a player.

01:17:05.240 --> 01:17:08.240
He's first couple minutes in his own lane, not where he's at peace.

01:17:08.240 --> 01:17:09.640
Going anywhere else on the map?

01:17:09.640 --> 01:17:13.340
That's where you've seen this guy dominate all of his games on Nature's Prophet or Bounty Hunter.

01:17:13.340 --> 01:17:17.840
Anyone who can sleep in behind, but losing them brought him down bottom.

01:17:17.840 --> 01:17:21.280
I had to get a little pressure, probably thinking about a little air up again.

01:17:21.280 --> 01:17:23.920
Now he's going in! I mean, oh no! He messed up!

01:17:24.560 --> 01:17:30.640
Oh, managed to pop the star storm before he came out of the shadow realm, so no damage dealt there.

01:17:31.680 --> 01:17:34.400
A rare fluff from Malady here on the big stage.

01:17:35.440 --> 01:17:40.000
Bit rain, Laurel. A little low right now, and also low on the CS at the moment, so

01:17:40.000 --> 01:17:41.680
Cheer Junior off to a good start here.

01:17:41.680 --> 01:17:48.680
Ember, Spirit turns here once again to a very important hero throughout this tournament for many teams.

01:17:48.680 --> 01:17:53.680
It feels like we often get into the mid game and there becomes this question of just, you know, who on your team can start a fight?

01:17:53.680 --> 01:17:57.680
Who can you scope with, with some confidence that you can create a good play for your team?

01:17:57.680 --> 01:18:00.680
And Ember has been no go to hero.

01:18:00.680 --> 01:18:04.680
Right. That's going to be what we're watching for, obviously on the other side.

01:18:04.680 --> 01:18:11.780
Here you've got a lot of potential heroes before hits on the Watson and caught in the pit of Malice and this Underlord

01:18:11.780 --> 01:18:16.780
Which is going to menace in the mid game with an axe build is also getting something on here too. Yatoro

01:18:16.940 --> 01:18:18.740
Tases down Soxa

01:18:18.740 --> 01:18:22.780
Leaving the creepway since it's all the way pushed out decides. I don't want to go any further

01:18:23.300 --> 01:18:26.500
But for this time it's just profit allowed to escape

01:18:27.740 --> 01:18:30.100
Yeah, a lot of storylines to unpack

01:18:30.100 --> 01:18:34.520
Obviously between these two teams, you know how this tournament has played out

01:18:35.020 --> 01:18:39.020
You know you were mentioning that like coming into this you might have thought these would be the teams that you get here

01:18:39.020 --> 01:18:42.540
But the path was not how we thought it would happen. Yeah, when you were doing your group stage missions

01:18:42.540 --> 01:18:44.560
I know many people when you're looking at the four zero

01:18:44.560 --> 01:18:49.880
Four ones, many teams were just you know, I was like the index spirit vision sounds good

01:18:49.880 --> 01:18:55.120
That seems pretty likely and then as the tournament's gone on maybe you might have questioned those in group stage didn't work out that way

01:18:55.120 --> 01:18:57.020
I know I got those wrong

01:18:57.020 --> 01:19:01.440
But here they are on the final day ready to see that last boss of vision

01:19:01.440 --> 01:19:05.020
If they're gonna, on the end, force DM back into the 2-3

01:19:05.020 --> 01:19:06.020
Blast

01:19:06.020 --> 01:19:09.020
They bring it, Soxon, that is the rotation

01:19:09.020 --> 01:19:11.020
Soxon is laying bad, other lanes green

01:19:11.020 --> 01:19:13.020
They really needed that one here

01:19:13.020 --> 01:19:16.020
So they kicked him down, Nami is immediately kicking to the outpost though

01:19:16.020 --> 01:19:18.020
She can get the stacks going

01:19:18.020 --> 01:19:21.020
So, I mean if you guys watched last night and you saw Team Spirit

01:19:21.020 --> 01:19:24.020
In those, the final two games versus the Boom Boys

01:19:24.020 --> 01:19:32.020
The momentum was unbelievable and I'd say coming to the slain stage, they even carried that in here a little bit with how aggressive they were in the first couple of levels.

01:19:32.020 --> 01:19:36.020
But they essentially got on the main board side of the map and just never left.

01:19:36.020 --> 01:19:41.020
They stole so many stacks, they got so much gold and look at this, Nobby trying it again, he gets punished.

01:19:41.020 --> 01:19:53.020
So Yandex seeming to be comfortable matching the tempo, maybe having watched those games last night, they take this nature's profit who can kind of be all over the map and help stop this pressure coming in.

01:19:53.020 --> 01:19:59.020
I think there was definitely some fear if you watch those games and look what he's doing now.

01:19:59.020 --> 01:20:04.020
In here at these camps, dropping a board down wants to know if they're going to be farming these up

01:20:04.020 --> 01:20:06.020
and potentially they want to take some of them to the back themselves.

01:20:06.020 --> 01:20:08.020
Now Laryl, he's got no way out.

01:20:08.020 --> 01:20:11.020
Double six there for Tira Jr. Now they do have to pull the phrase,

01:20:11.020 --> 01:20:15.020
but a good amount of magic damage coming in, although Tira Jr. is actually taking a lot of the counter moves.

01:20:15.020 --> 01:20:21.020
The arrow move, that Marana answer to the Winter Wyvern is looking solid.

01:20:21.020 --> 01:20:26.460
So they get the kill on the pango, we will steal away an arcane root at the very least.

01:20:26.460 --> 01:20:28.700
That's very good for Team Spirit.

01:20:29.660 --> 01:20:31.820
Taking that away from a level 6 ember spirit.

01:20:32.380 --> 01:20:34.940
And that easily could have been a way into those stacks.

01:20:34.940 --> 01:20:37.260
He could have been flying in here stealing some of those.

01:20:37.260 --> 01:20:38.060
And not me again.

01:20:38.060 --> 01:20:39.180
He's in here trying to defend it.

01:20:39.180 --> 01:20:42.220
He's looking for any vision that was dropped down by Andix.

01:20:42.220 --> 01:20:45.580
He's gonna miss it, so now he wants to play in there as well.

01:20:45.580 --> 01:20:51.580
Well, he's starting to get some of these levels up top, two points in the reactive armor, so

01:20:51.580 --> 01:20:54.580
a little bit stronger here, Soxa skips them.

01:20:54.580 --> 01:21:01.580
And another one, Valady goes forward with the arrow chain's combination and easy kill.

01:21:01.580 --> 01:21:05.580
He's trying to get the roll up, does not happen.

01:21:05.580 --> 01:21:11.580
And they're focused up top of Soxa as well too, at that same time as we move into the wisdom trines.

01:21:11.580 --> 01:21:13.580
They can move over.

01:21:13.580 --> 01:21:15.580
Soxa is there.

01:21:15.580 --> 01:21:17.580
They're bringing Terrorblade,

01:21:17.580 --> 01:21:21.580
and there isn't any alternative move from the rest of the map.

01:21:21.580 --> 01:21:23.580
Pop Metamorphosis, turn on the DM,

01:21:23.580 --> 01:21:25.580
now turn towards Soxa. They're in trouble.

01:21:25.580 --> 01:21:27.580
They're going to lose the Nature's Prophet.

01:21:27.580 --> 01:21:29.580
DM not able to take that one away,

01:21:29.580 --> 01:21:31.580
so it is going to be double

01:21:31.580 --> 01:21:33.580
Prime's list of going in their direction.

01:21:33.580 --> 01:21:35.580
The road continues to hit.

01:21:35.580 --> 01:21:38.580
DM chasing. They're actually going to fiendscape into this one.

01:21:38.580 --> 01:21:43.580
Well, Rue dies to cheer Junior GM, damages to TP out.

01:21:43.580 --> 01:21:45.580
Just barely misses the pit.

01:21:46.580 --> 01:21:56.580
He nearly gets them, but, I mean still, able to take down that shrine, that's gonna go both way, both shrine of Wisdom's now heading over to Team Spirit, so, maybe down in gold, but it's a big boost to their experience.

01:21:56.580 --> 01:21:59.580
It sucks at TP's behind the underworld.

01:21:59.580 --> 01:22:02.580
Okay, the Laps.

01:22:03.580 --> 01:22:06.580
I mean, I guess this is just gonna be a full commit for the tower.

01:22:06.580 --> 01:22:14.260
and Glaps is going to back away, Malady, and in, throw out some firestorms to try and

01:22:14.260 --> 01:22:18.620
use the pressure off the tower, we have that TV rotation from MP not doing much there.

01:22:18.620 --> 01:22:21.420
It's really high as the force of the tower down gets it on board, it's certainly one

01:22:21.420 --> 01:22:25.140
of the strengths of this series, so you really need to kill if that place is going

01:22:25.140 --> 01:22:26.140
to work out.

01:22:26.140 --> 01:22:30.900
Now, sitting mid-larrow, much healthier on the resources right now, as the rolling

01:22:30.900 --> 01:22:34.100
time they're ready to go, so if they want to try and gank them again, they'd

01:22:34.100 --> 01:22:38.580
Be very cautious that they hit this connection of the arrow. Otherwise, he's very good at turning round five. Yes

01:22:40.460 --> 01:22:43.780
See here as well as six to four two thousand boldly

01:22:44.180 --> 01:22:47.500
It's kind of nearing what we were talking about last night where

01:22:47.980 --> 01:22:53.340
Here we're trying to bully GPK. It feels like there's been a lot of emphasis trying to shut down the oral

01:22:53.340 --> 01:22:57.220
It's the tango is gonna be the main hero trying to set the temple

01:22:57.900 --> 01:23:01.260
Yeah, 100% and then if when you pick this timber saw in the off lane as well

01:23:01.260 --> 01:23:03.260
Well, you want a lot of control in their opponent.

01:23:03.260 --> 01:23:07.260
So, giving your Ember a good game, so that he can rotate in towards his Timbersaw,

01:23:07.260 --> 01:23:10.260
that's going to put a lot more fear in their hearts when it comes to DMs.

01:23:12.260 --> 01:23:16.260
Likely, we're going to be seeing a retreat back to the jungle for you, Thoreau.

01:23:16.260 --> 01:23:19.260
And Spear Castle online.

01:23:19.260 --> 01:23:23.260
So, again, the Arrow combo, they really get away from that one.

01:23:23.260 --> 01:23:26.260
And so, the TP out may be successful.

01:23:26.260 --> 01:23:28.260
The big difference we're seeing compared to last night,

01:23:28.260 --> 01:23:31.260
and YT Spirit were able to run over the North East with supports as well.

01:23:31.260 --> 01:23:32.900
They got so much space yesterday.

01:23:32.900 --> 01:23:34.380
Coors were heading to the jungle.

01:23:34.380 --> 01:23:36.380
They got really fast level sixes.

01:23:36.380 --> 01:23:38.100
They have gotten both trying to push them,

01:23:38.100 --> 01:23:41.100
and yet their supports are five and a half and four and a half right now.

01:23:41.100 --> 01:23:44.580
So Team Spirit are not off this ridiculous shot that they were previously,

01:23:44.580 --> 01:23:46.580
and the annex right here is getting pressured in.

01:23:46.580 --> 01:23:50.500
Fuller through the freeze, Laurel attacks the other direction, finds Soxa,

01:23:50.500 --> 01:23:51.780
gets on the cheer of Junior,

01:23:51.780 --> 01:23:53.940
Naoki is going to lay the brambles out.

01:23:53.940 --> 01:23:55.700
They have enough to take down this Ember.

01:23:55.700 --> 01:23:58.500
It feels unlikely. Lax is going to focus Soxa.

01:23:58.500 --> 01:24:01.160
Find him there, Chirichunir. Still being chased.

01:24:01.160 --> 01:24:02.500
Good hits out.

01:24:02.500 --> 01:24:07.960
As he remnants away, looks like Spirit are going to give up on that chase.

01:24:07.960 --> 01:24:11.760
Confident the tower, find the support, couldn't get the end.

01:24:16.060 --> 01:24:18.660
Kind of just taking time bopping on your Timbersaw, right?

01:24:18.660 --> 01:24:21.100
Like wondering when does he need to join in using Gage,

01:24:21.100 --> 01:24:22.960
but when do they want to actually link in towards him?

01:24:22.960 --> 01:24:24.960
So far, I know him from that top tower.

01:24:24.960 --> 01:24:28.400
Nogging that down would feel pretty good right now, if you're a Yandex.

01:24:29.400 --> 01:24:34.960
Again, here's more focused on trying to get into these items and farm up on the camps,

01:24:34.960 --> 01:24:38.960
as opposed to a little pressuring power, which granted, it would be a little bit tough.

01:24:39.680 --> 01:24:43.960
But when you can beat this free and a terribly pain against the Timbersaw,

01:24:43.960 --> 01:24:46.400
not really that much energy brought his direction,

01:24:46.400 --> 01:24:48.400
it kinda feels a little bit out of that.

01:24:49.560 --> 01:24:50.680
That counts, I see.

01:24:50.680 --> 01:24:53.080
We haven't really talked that much about this, the Shadow Beam.

01:24:53.080 --> 01:24:54.760
Boxing and Mask of Madness done.

01:24:55.640 --> 01:24:57.560
He's certainly in farm mode here.

01:24:57.560 --> 01:24:59.880
I think we'll probably see him joining on the next push.

01:25:00.440 --> 01:25:02.120
It's definitely a good time to do it, right?

01:25:02.120 --> 01:25:03.760
You want to get a little use out of your Requiem.

01:25:03.760 --> 01:25:05.360
You have all this control,

01:25:05.360 --> 01:25:07.960
and if you're trying to milk numbering your clones,

01:25:07.960 --> 01:25:09.480
you'll have to have this nature problem.

01:25:09.480 --> 01:25:10.360
Rengdian, speaking of which,

01:25:10.360 --> 01:25:13.320
he's also closing in on the level 6 Phorsox as well,

01:25:13.320 --> 01:25:15.040
so if you're using some damage,

01:25:15.040 --> 01:25:16.320
might be just what they need.

01:25:16.320 --> 01:25:17.800
Try and bring out some A-Zeros.

01:25:18.960 --> 01:25:20.000
Rengdian kind of counts

01:25:20.000 --> 01:25:21.360
just pushing this one with a catapult.

01:25:21.360 --> 01:25:22.720
Except for let him go at this point.

01:25:23.080 --> 01:25:27.080
The plaything is coming out of next.

01:25:27.080 --> 01:25:33.080
Just barely off the mark trying to get that vision he awarded.

01:25:33.080 --> 01:25:38.080
Not yet still building up stacks for his buddy.

01:25:38.080 --> 01:25:44.080
Again, on this big stage, seeing these players, both Naughty and Naughty, first time up on the TI stage,

01:25:44.080 --> 01:25:47.080
they've been performing incredibly well.

01:25:47.080 --> 01:25:49.080
See if they can keep that up.

01:25:49.080 --> 01:25:53.080
to have some real value in these teamfights later on the terrorize is really good.

01:25:54.080 --> 01:25:57.080
Yeah, and I think this early damage to the headland can also be a real difference for me.

01:25:58.080 --> 01:26:02.080
The damage isn't quite monumental yet. They've actually got a bit of a lockdown thing with the pango,

01:26:02.080 --> 01:26:08.080
but not enough damage to finish some of these guys off, particularly because of this high reactive armor on the TV.

01:26:08.080 --> 01:26:13.080
The pango can jinx on you, but they struggle to kill you. That's where the dark rule comes in life here.

01:26:13.080 --> 01:26:18.080
So now level 6 on NaughtMe. If he has any nerves whatsoever, they were certainly not on display last night.

01:26:18.080 --> 01:26:20.080
Well, it's hot here though.

01:26:20.080 --> 01:26:30.080
And he drops it down, terrorize, comes back in it, wants to throw it, not gonna happen, sure Junior runs and runs in minutes, right on out of that.

01:26:30.080 --> 01:26:35.080
And no terrorize means there's no chance to link up there with the pit of malice when the blast comes in.

01:26:35.080 --> 01:26:42.080
So a bit of a wasted rotation again for him as his tower is tanking away right now, he's gonna miss out on Pekka, he's gonna go next, he puts this.

01:26:42.080 --> 01:26:49.080
Yeah, it's super annoying, and that mid tower, I mean, it's still not quite dead, but it's pretty damn close.

01:26:49.080 --> 01:26:50.580
That's going to be a bad driver.

01:26:50.580 --> 01:26:51.580
What can you do?

01:26:51.580 --> 01:26:54.580
I mean, there's really not much, so they do eventually get it.

01:26:54.580 --> 01:26:59.580
Sure, Junior takes the tower, has this amp damage bottled up with the Spirit Muscle done.

01:26:59.580 --> 01:27:01.580
This feels like it could be time to play.

01:27:01.580 --> 01:27:02.580
What?

01:27:02.580 --> 01:27:09.580
I mean, December saw, and now the Vedlam, like you talk about, just eating through that HP pool, he's fine!

01:27:09.580 --> 01:27:15.420
Not me. Knew the mission. Took a lot of get six. Little longer than anyone wanted, but immediately achieved what he needed.

01:27:15.420 --> 01:27:19.420
And that arrow connects on a creep. Blue is still gonna die.

01:27:20.060 --> 01:27:25.420
But not the kill they were hoping for. Would have loved to be able to combo that better under the turret later.

01:27:25.900 --> 01:27:31.820
Free Remnant still left you for two years, Bob. He's in here pretty deep, but he should be able to get out of this situation.

01:27:31.820 --> 01:27:36.700
And go. Narl. Trouble. Narl! Gone again! That's the ant damage!

01:27:36.700 --> 01:27:39.980
Collapse moves in, they have the bedlumb shared here, actually, low on mana!

01:27:39.980 --> 01:27:42.380
Wait a minute, he doesn't have enough to activate Remnant!

01:27:42.380 --> 01:27:47.180
Does now as he bottles up and gets out of there, but a little close on that one.

01:27:47.180 --> 01:27:49.340
You know, this comes back to that earlier gate, right?

01:27:49.340 --> 01:27:51.020
They don't have the gate play to try and...

01:27:51.020 --> 01:27:53.980
I was thinking the Ember might be in trouble, but there's no gate available, so

01:27:53.980 --> 01:27:58.620
he turns on them with the Amplify damage and the Huntsid becomes the Hunter.

01:27:58.620 --> 01:28:08.060
And for Yandex, a team that has traditionally done incredibly well against Team Spirit.

01:28:08.060 --> 01:28:14.500
Now we were looking at some of the stats earlier, and it's undefeated so far throughout the season.

01:28:14.500 --> 01:28:16.860
We were able to draw series with them.

01:28:16.860 --> 01:28:21.060
But Team Spirit on the main stage, a different beast so far.

01:28:21.060 --> 01:28:22.660
It's looking like it's the same story, though.

01:28:22.660 --> 01:28:25.980
Yeah. I didn't want to put too much stuff into that stat when I looked at it earlier,

01:28:25.980 --> 01:28:28.580
because it's like, you know, Team Spirit, they look way better right now.

01:28:28.580 --> 01:28:34.380
Now, look at this, Soxa, he does do a Shrine of Wisdom but does get caught by Rukene, at least get the finish, still here.

01:28:34.380 --> 01:28:36.380
Doesn't have a chance to get out of there.

01:28:36.380 --> 01:28:37.380
Both of them are down, yeah.

01:28:37.380 --> 01:28:39.580
They're going to run down, the same thing, so...

01:28:39.580 --> 01:28:43.580
Last moves in, move is the one that gets the final touch.

01:28:43.580 --> 01:28:46.580
Unfortunately, still worth, Soxa.

01:28:46.580 --> 01:28:49.580
Very happy to steal that XP away.

01:28:49.580 --> 01:28:52.580
640 for them, a thousand for your team.

01:28:52.580 --> 01:28:55.580
I'll take that trade, as they keep their gold leads here.

01:28:55.580 --> 01:28:59.580
The Shining Star of Team Spirit, as per usual though, it is Yadaro.

01:28:59.580 --> 01:29:02.580
Still 8,500 gold, still top of the board.

01:29:02.580 --> 01:29:07.580
They can bring him into the pool for some of these engagements. They definitely have the tools to win.

01:29:07.580 --> 01:29:11.580
This sort of fight they want to bring at them. Again, they're going to try and hunt TM.

01:29:11.580 --> 01:29:15.580
Yadaro moving in, and he hit another Bramble of the Terrorizer.

01:29:15.580 --> 01:29:19.580
Whoa, that guy doesn't walk in like that. That's how it's going to happen.

01:29:19.580 --> 01:29:23.580
Peered, caught, going to be chased and killed.

01:29:23.580 --> 01:29:31.420
They're finding somebody to bully and eat to these games and taking out this Timbersaw

01:29:31.420 --> 01:29:38.620
it's going to be a nice little boon getting the care blade set up for a good mid game.

01:29:38.620 --> 01:29:43.180
Knocked down his Turbots power, killing him in behind by the tier two, trying to take

01:29:43.180 --> 01:29:47.180
him out of this game, collapse, sensing danger, TP's out of there, oh!

01:29:47.180 --> 01:29:52.300
This is the chain and collapse going to give the tip over to the Emperor.

01:29:52.300 --> 01:29:53.300
I aced the tip.

01:29:53.300 --> 01:29:54.300
Interesting.

01:29:54.300 --> 01:29:56.300
Yeah, he's still losing his temper.

01:29:58.300 --> 01:30:00.300
Gotta do something to build up that temper out.

01:30:00.300 --> 01:30:03.300
But understanding what was coming his direction...

01:30:04.300 --> 01:30:08.300
Being all that pressure though, down bottom, they immediately take the tier 1 mid, Team Spirit.

01:30:08.300 --> 01:30:11.300
So, struggled a little bit on the earlier part of this game to open it up,

01:30:11.300 --> 01:30:15.300
but now this map becoming a bit more free for Team Spirit to move around.

01:30:16.300 --> 01:30:21.300
Still have yet to see Watson really make his way into any fights,

01:30:21.300 --> 01:30:26.540
Watson is moving into a BKB, but technically there could be some action coming their way soon.

01:30:26.540 --> 01:30:28.220
Illusion control control?

01:30:28.220 --> 01:30:29.540
What's next here?

01:30:29.540 --> 01:30:31.900
I don't know. I don't think they wanted on that one.

01:30:32.620 --> 01:30:34.620
I mean, I guess not. Not a man to jam here.

01:30:34.620 --> 01:30:36.120
But it's a confidence error.

01:30:36.120 --> 01:30:37.820
You know, you don't want to be missing those.

01:30:37.820 --> 01:30:38.820
Cool.

01:30:38.820 --> 01:30:40.740
Or it's a calibrating error. It's okay.

01:30:40.740 --> 01:30:41.900
The next action will be the wrong one.

01:30:41.900 --> 01:30:42.740
It is getting there.

01:30:42.740 --> 01:30:44.060
That's the other way to look at it.

01:30:48.140 --> 01:30:50.940
There are some things up on the top side of the map.

01:30:50.940 --> 01:30:55.940
where it looks like vision is gonna show socks out.

01:30:55.940 --> 01:30:57.620
Not me throwing out some grandals,

01:30:57.620 --> 01:31:00.780
the teleport away, who is skiing?

01:31:02.100 --> 01:31:04.500
I'd say their first good timing from the side of Team Sphere

01:31:04.500 --> 01:31:07.380
probably comes out with the Agnus Scepter on this underwater.

01:31:07.380 --> 01:31:09.860
Gives them another way to get a roof going.

01:31:09.860 --> 01:31:11.860
I think we've seen just how impactful it can be

01:31:11.860 --> 01:31:12.980
when you get in the early part of the game,

01:31:12.980 --> 01:31:14.620
particularly when you're seeing it

01:31:14.620 --> 01:31:15.540
versus the Ember Sphere.

01:31:15.540 --> 01:31:17.100
So there's a bit of a race here

01:31:17.100 --> 01:31:18.980
between the Agnus Scepter on the underwater

01:31:18.980 --> 01:31:20.900
and then this DKB on the Ember.

01:31:21.700 --> 01:31:24.300
Here, Junior would love to have some defensive tools

01:31:24.300 --> 01:31:26.180
to deal with this on the earlier end here,

01:31:26.180 --> 01:31:28.140
but I'd like to see Team Spirit make a good move

01:31:28.140 --> 01:31:30.260
with the pango and the underwater time-times.

01:31:30.260 --> 01:31:33.340
Yeah, perhaps it's just a little bit closer to it, right?

01:31:33.340 --> 01:31:36.380
Easy to play around 300 gold away from having it completed.

01:31:36.380 --> 01:31:38.700
Here, Junior's still about 1,000 or so away.

01:31:38.700 --> 01:31:40.700
We're gonna try and face-flash, big man.

01:31:40.700 --> 01:31:42.460
If I'm the brawler, Arrow is there,

01:31:42.460 --> 01:31:44.700
but then they have to terrorize out

01:31:44.700 --> 01:31:46.740
and that's gonna be a cheesy kill.

01:31:46.740 --> 01:31:48.540
See, Junior felt like there was a lot more, right?

01:31:48.540 --> 01:31:52.060
brought many numbers. Of course you always have to consider that because the nature's profit is

01:31:52.060 --> 01:31:55.340
whole. It's going to vary quickly. Oh! Speaking of,

01:31:55.340 --> 01:32:00.460
tomorrow gets to double kill across both sides of the map. Now this is going to be interesting,

01:32:00.460 --> 01:32:05.900
right? Because I do think the teamfight potential is very strong compared to you. You have two

01:32:05.900 --> 01:32:11.500
heroes that are super heavily countered by the Timbersaw. How much has DM been shut down

01:32:11.500 --> 01:32:15.580
when they kill him before he just like unloads on these, you know, under-lowered

01:32:15.580 --> 01:32:19.280
Yeah, he's kind of got this like middle of a road item in the Cayenne Strology.

01:32:19.280 --> 01:32:23.880
It's a bit defensive, it's a bit aggressive, and trying to get into the more secure item of the BKB.

01:32:23.880 --> 01:32:27.280
So I think when you see this instant smoke immediately after from Team Spirit,

01:32:27.780 --> 01:32:30.880
it's certainly showing like, hey, we want to keep pressuring this guy.

01:32:30.880 --> 01:32:32.380
They love living in this area.

01:32:32.380 --> 01:32:34.380
Like, Yonro is farming their ancient weapons.

01:32:35.380 --> 01:32:37.080
I think they're good. They find it there.

01:32:37.080 --> 01:32:39.180
The root of follow-up, it's in trouble.

01:32:39.180 --> 01:32:40.580
No BKB for you.

01:32:40.580 --> 01:32:43.380
And if he's patterned, they got the wreckage without him.

01:32:43.380 --> 01:32:50.380
Toro gonna hit on the socks of a teepee bin behind them and no chance for a fight at all.

01:32:50.380 --> 01:32:53.380
Ghandex, Ghandex easy to get out of there.

01:32:53.380 --> 01:32:55.380
Underlord Axe is too strong.

01:32:55.380 --> 01:32:58.380
Just find the game. Very strong indeed.

01:32:58.380 --> 01:33:00.380
Arrow connected on the back line.

01:33:00.380 --> 01:33:02.380
Toro has walked that one off.

01:33:02.380 --> 01:33:08.380
And as the DKB comes out from the Shadowfiend, it's just, again, a couple of seconds too late

01:33:08.380 --> 01:33:11.380
as Spirit hit their timing perfectly.

01:33:11.380 --> 01:33:13.380
As soon as the axe was ready, you go.

01:33:13.380 --> 01:33:16.380
Yeah, it could not have been better there, I mean it pairs so nicely with the Pangalir

01:33:16.380 --> 01:33:19.380
because it still struggles a little bit before the Blink Dagger in terms of, like,

01:33:19.380 --> 01:33:22.380
in terms of being a spirit-esque hero, as we say.

01:33:22.380 --> 01:33:24.380
A hero that's very good at starting fights.

01:33:24.380 --> 01:33:27.380
Before the Blink, it's just not quite to that same level.

01:33:27.380 --> 01:33:31.380
Oftentimes, the roll can feel a bit clumsy, so you have this agonim sector from the unloaded

01:33:31.380 --> 01:33:34.380
as a bit of a backup, you have the brambles, you have the terrorized.

01:33:34.380 --> 01:33:37.380
Suddenly, it becomes a three-layer cake of perfection.

01:33:38.380 --> 01:33:39.380
Roll hungry.

01:33:39.380 --> 01:33:42.380
I hear ya. Sounds good. Early in the morning.

01:33:42.380 --> 01:33:45.380
But yeah, I think it's interesting to watch this one, right?

01:33:45.380 --> 01:33:47.380
Because, again...

01:33:47.380 --> 01:33:49.380
Look at Watson.

01:33:51.380 --> 01:33:53.380
Are they cooking something here?

01:33:53.380 --> 01:33:55.380
There's no gate for 20.

01:33:55.380 --> 01:33:56.380
Yeah.

01:33:56.380 --> 01:33:57.380
Sorry.

01:33:57.380 --> 01:34:00.380
But again, thinking about the way that this game is unfolded,

01:34:00.380 --> 01:34:02.380
all the good leaf-free index things looking solid,

01:34:02.380 --> 01:34:05.380
things starting to turn back around into scared favor,

01:34:05.380 --> 01:34:07.380
and it's off the back of these pick-offs.

01:34:07.380 --> 01:34:11.100
Watson moves in, he's gonna turn and actually pop the mask of madness.

01:34:11.100 --> 01:34:15.940
He's trying to do some damage there, but needs to get out because Toro is here as well.

01:34:15.940 --> 01:34:21.340
Find the pit, there's the PKB, the walkway, the terrorized connects now on to this marijuana.

01:34:21.340 --> 01:34:27.940
And as the lowly thunder comes through and this PKB wears out, Shadowfeet has to be gone because otherwise he's going to fall also.

01:34:27.940 --> 01:34:34.540
The losing man of losing life chased out with Tristler, and Toro finds them all.

01:34:34.540 --> 01:34:39.540
and this game starting to fall out of the hands of the index.

01:34:40.540 --> 01:34:44.540
For the classic team spirit this morning compared to last night.

01:34:44.540 --> 01:34:48.540
Last night was full on aggression, very much not what we'd seen often in this tournament.

01:34:48.540 --> 01:34:52.540
Really any team, this much more what you see with team spirit.

01:34:52.540 --> 01:34:55.540
The ability to force their opponents in these team fights that just seem unwinnable,

01:34:55.540 --> 01:34:59.540
and hitting all their timings in sync there, like you see that roll-up,

01:34:59.540 --> 01:35:01.100
It's so powerful when you're fighting in this area,

01:35:01.100 --> 01:35:02.180
and that's just hang-out.

01:35:02.180 --> 01:35:05.220
Doesn't have the best natural mount targets to go for it.

01:35:05.220 --> 01:35:06.900
So he just pops it, they get the chainsaw

01:35:06.900 --> 01:35:09.060
on the Timbersaw, and what does Shadowfiend have to do

01:35:09.060 --> 01:35:10.300
with his first DKB?

01:35:10.300 --> 01:35:11.740
He just walks away.

01:35:11.740 --> 01:35:14.140
It's higher time, no opportunity to stay in fall

01:35:14.140 --> 01:35:15.140
off with this item.

01:35:16.140 --> 01:35:17.980
The disaster time near the game is nearer.

01:35:17.980 --> 01:35:20.300
Moonlight Shadowling, they need this kill.

01:35:20.300 --> 01:35:22.100
That's a level 17 terribly.

01:35:22.100 --> 01:35:23.100
You gotta take this guy down.

01:35:23.100 --> 01:35:24.780
This would be a really big win,

01:35:24.780 --> 01:35:27.860
and it's just, they're not willing to go for it.

01:35:27.860 --> 01:35:29.340
It's a little bit off.

01:35:29.340 --> 01:35:30.860
He's on the ward right now.

01:35:30.860 --> 01:35:32.140
They still can't get him.

01:35:32.140 --> 01:35:32.620
I mean, yeah.

01:35:32.620 --> 01:35:33.180
I see him back there.

01:35:33.180 --> 01:35:34.700
It's crazy.

01:35:34.700 --> 01:35:37.220
He's going to walk back in.

01:35:37.220 --> 01:35:38.900
Or unafraid right now.

01:35:38.900 --> 01:35:39.780
Steps up.

01:35:39.780 --> 01:35:41.460
Says he's one man, clerical.

01:35:41.460 --> 01:35:42.060
He's just one man.

01:35:42.060 --> 01:35:43.260
He has no backup.

01:35:43.260 --> 01:35:45.460
They're coming in now.

01:35:45.460 --> 01:35:47.060
But the root lands.

01:35:47.060 --> 01:35:48.380
Follow up root is there.

01:35:48.380 --> 01:35:49.820
And now the bedlam.

01:35:49.820 --> 01:35:52.100
No terrorized means no chance.

01:35:52.100 --> 01:35:52.780
Holy kill.

01:35:52.780 --> 01:35:55.940
And we'll get to the essence of Siller.

01:35:55.940 --> 01:35:57.940
But yeah, that hesitancy.

01:35:57.940 --> 01:36:03.220
Like if you've got two cores up and now instead it's going to be Soxa that goes down.

01:36:04.020 --> 01:36:06.540
They say bounty hunter, one in seven.

01:36:06.740 --> 01:36:10.620
I mean they're willing to just rip the Underwater Ulti for a kill on the Venetian Crawler.

01:36:10.860 --> 01:36:14.460
Like they feel that is worth it because of how much space it's going to give them on the map right now.

01:36:14.820 --> 01:36:18.260
Instantly smoke. How many times have they smoked up this staircase this time?

01:36:19.060 --> 01:36:20.260
They just keep playing around it.

01:36:20.260 --> 01:36:23.340
Infinitely they're just coming in here, farming your ancients,

01:36:23.540 --> 01:36:26.660
looking to draw rewards and vision, controlling this part of the map.

01:36:26.660 --> 01:36:28.660
There's a tower, the tower's still there.

01:36:28.660 --> 01:36:32.900
Ooh, able to get out. Those two ulti's used, can they get the return kill though?

01:36:32.900 --> 01:36:41.380
The Steershinger top speed gave him tries to get away, remnants still slowed and able to get out of their collapse.

01:36:41.380 --> 01:36:43.380
They were still hunting, Rue wanted it.

01:36:44.180 --> 01:36:45.460
It's just ridiculous.

01:36:45.460 --> 01:36:49.780
While they were doing that chase in the mid lane, there was a catapult wave hitting the top tower.

01:36:49.780 --> 01:36:50.980
Socks out on the respawn.

01:36:50.980 --> 01:36:54.260
As you go up top on this map, they just start trying to cut these waves.

01:36:54.260 --> 01:36:54.760
Yeah.

01:36:56.660 --> 01:36:58.660
They got to slow something down.

01:36:58.660 --> 01:37:01.660
Um, the game needs to slow down for them.

01:37:01.660 --> 01:37:05.660
And that's the tier two mid taken now, instantly reaching to grab this outpost.

01:37:05.660 --> 01:37:07.660
You thought they owned this area before?

01:37:07.660 --> 01:37:10.660
Now everyone can TP in here. They don't need the enemy.

01:37:10.660 --> 01:37:12.660
This is their new base of operations.

01:37:13.660 --> 01:37:15.660
Of course that's what they're now.

01:37:15.660 --> 01:37:19.660
Well, to help deal with the little bit of catch that is there.

01:37:19.660 --> 01:37:25.660
That's the thing the panel talked about a lot, was the inability to really lock onto a target.

01:37:25.660 --> 01:37:33.660
On the other hand, very easy to lock on Saksa here as the Nature's Prophet another death.

01:37:33.660 --> 01:37:35.660
I've got to be some of the most that he's had this time.

01:37:35.660 --> 01:37:40.160
They are smoking up now. He has buyback TP if they really need it, but they need something here on the NS.

01:37:40.160 --> 01:37:44.160
Smoke break on the Naughty. Looking for the air of follow-up, it does connect.

01:37:44.160 --> 01:37:50.660
The damage out, they're going to lose Naughty, so a good chunk of their control and magical damage is gone.

01:37:50.660 --> 01:37:53.060
Unfortunately, there's not much left after that.

01:37:53.060 --> 01:37:55.660
That's the main bit of the control that they get.

01:37:56.660 --> 01:37:59.660
They just need to get back, get their Ophos under control, hopefully D-Word.

01:37:59.660 --> 01:38:01.960
That is one thing that Boom Boyz really struggled with last night,

01:38:01.960 --> 01:38:05.660
where they were unable to get rid of those issues and they're kept being left behind here.

01:38:05.660 --> 01:38:08.160
Maybe an earlier gem could be an option here for Yandex.

01:38:08.160 --> 01:38:12.160
Obviously comes with a lot of risk, but maybe they could be a part of the map back.

01:38:12.560 --> 01:38:16.160
You know, we talk a lot about like momentum throughout the tournament,

01:38:16.160 --> 01:38:19.260
and momentum in the game, and this type of play right here,

01:38:19.260 --> 01:38:26.560
If you just lose them like that, it completely stopped any of the good momentum that was coming their direction for Yandex.

01:38:26.560 --> 01:38:30.460
I mean, again, this is a team that they have beaten so many times this year.

01:38:30.460 --> 01:38:40.760
They went 15 and 6. They only lost 6 games to Spirit the entire time, and now they're down 4,000 net worth at 24 minutes in the biggest match of the year for them.

01:38:42.760 --> 01:38:47.760
Now, just to add another issue here, Nottany has just gone straight for the jet.

01:38:47.760 --> 01:38:52.260
They do not want to release any control at all in this game.

01:38:52.260 --> 01:38:55.960
That may be true, but you have to back in, honestly, if you're a N-Taxi.

01:38:55.960 --> 01:38:59.460
If you have a pretty good target in this Willow, it's not me end up holding with them.

01:38:59.460 --> 01:39:03.560
It's as quick as someone that can try and opt to kill you to get something back.

01:39:03.560 --> 01:39:06.260
For now, the Arrow will say, hey, they're doing Rose.

01:39:06.260 --> 01:39:08.560
I can't imagine they're going to do any of that.

01:39:11.260 --> 01:39:13.560
They're heading over this direction.

01:39:13.560 --> 01:39:14.960
The whole leap skill?

01:39:14.960 --> 01:39:18.960
Thera goes in but Thor already there with the Aegis.

01:39:18.960 --> 01:39:21.960
Now slowing them. They're gonna chase this.

01:39:21.960 --> 01:39:25.960
Thor blinked forward, finds his man for any mana.

01:39:25.960 --> 01:39:28.960
He thought about the terrorized, decides not to go for it.

01:39:30.960 --> 01:39:34.960
They weren't even all there. They still had the Underlord raid to gate in.

01:39:34.960 --> 01:39:35.960
I appreciate it.

01:39:37.960 --> 01:39:40.960
I just had a small snag on the Aegis to try something at this point.

01:39:40.960 --> 01:39:44.960
I feel the game slipping away a long way from the others, pulling into his own zone of network.

01:39:44.960 --> 01:39:45.960
He thinks I'm a Scotty.

01:39:48.460 --> 01:39:56.960
Very early on that Scotty against these heroes, particularly against the Timbersaw who has been bowling a good chunk.

01:39:56.960 --> 01:40:01.960
Yeah, you can see Dota Plus feels it, but Watson right now, directly, this could be it!

01:40:01.960 --> 01:40:05.960
Oh, just go for it! You gotta get something! They're not gonna do it.

01:40:05.960 --> 01:40:09.960
I mean, I don't think it's gonna matter. I don't think it's enough. It would have to be still frame perfect.

01:40:09.960 --> 01:40:13.300
Yeah, and there's the Sunder possibility of turning around.

01:40:13.300 --> 01:40:15.520
Oh, no, and now he walks into a ward.

01:40:15.520 --> 01:40:18.840
Watson, don't go over there, you're not safe, sir!

01:40:18.840 --> 01:40:21.920
Oh, Rue shows up and they find a two,

01:40:21.920 --> 01:40:24.280
there's a way to be directly on the,

01:40:24.280 --> 01:40:26.040
directly on the TP out, wait a minute.

01:40:26.040 --> 01:40:28.040
No, no, not gonna happen.

01:40:28.040 --> 01:40:30.600
Not going to happen.

01:40:30.600 --> 01:40:34.500
Watson, the saddest of Shadowfeeds.

01:40:36.240 --> 01:40:38.320
All this farm for what?

01:40:38.320 --> 01:40:43.480
not find an opportunity to use this damage whatsoever in this game. His teammates, they

01:40:43.480 --> 01:40:46.640
try and get it on the map right now, trying to find some vision, trying to find a little

01:40:46.640 --> 01:40:51.040
bit of way across here. I mean, the bright side, they have a 9 seconds AP on this Timbersaw,

01:40:51.040 --> 01:40:57.160
right? They have 8 seconds left there on the Ember. Maybe that will give them some

01:40:57.160 --> 01:41:03.240
opportunity. It just feels like they don't have those pieces that they need, that

01:41:03.240 --> 01:41:07.720
glit-stun hero, that little bit of control. They've got plenty of damage, but what

01:41:07.720 --> 01:41:09.720
What happens if Team Spirit just back away?

01:41:09.720 --> 01:41:11.160
What happens if they run out of there?

01:41:11.160 --> 01:41:12.280
And it felt like they had it, right?

01:41:12.280 --> 01:41:13.440
It felt like they had this Ember.

01:41:13.440 --> 01:41:14.920
He could also really get started in this game,

01:41:14.920 --> 01:41:17.120
but he has not fallen behind this Pangolier.

01:41:17.120 --> 01:41:19.000
They weren't able to link up.

01:41:19.000 --> 01:41:20.360
They weren't able to import some things

01:41:20.360 --> 01:41:21.400
on the other side of the map.

01:41:21.400 --> 01:41:22.480
Maybe.

01:41:22.480 --> 01:41:23.960
I wouldn't say they had many opportunities.

01:41:23.960 --> 01:41:25.800
Like, D.M., trying to get off to a decent start,

01:41:25.800 --> 01:41:29.400
even after the first couple of games,

01:41:29.400 --> 01:41:30.880
but they did create eight linkages.

01:41:30.880 --> 01:41:34.200
They didn't knock down the tall tower super early.

01:41:34.200 --> 01:41:36.320
Team Spirit were just very good at keeping the pressure

01:41:36.320 --> 01:41:38.640
on that top half of an hour.

01:41:38.640 --> 01:41:41.320
Speaking of keeping the pressure up,

01:41:41.320 --> 01:41:45.720
this has been a tournament that has had a lot of super late game

01:41:45.720 --> 01:41:46.680
Dota.

01:41:46.680 --> 01:41:48.520
Over the past couple of days, it appears

01:41:48.520 --> 01:41:52.560
Team Spirit have found avenues to find end games.

01:41:52.560 --> 01:41:54.920
Are they going to do the same thing here right now?

01:41:54.920 --> 01:41:57.400
I look last time, so he's shepherding the wave.

01:41:57.400 --> 01:41:58.760
He was just walking alongside it.

01:41:58.760 --> 01:42:01.480
He got up there to just kill some trients.

01:42:01.480 --> 01:42:03.160
I'm sure that another wave could come down.

01:42:03.160 --> 01:42:04.680
Oh, and now he's going back.

01:42:04.680 --> 01:42:08.360
Thankfully the observer word spots that he's here. I'll say different bad news

01:42:12.200 --> 01:42:14.200
They farm up that way

01:42:14.600 --> 01:42:17.600
Still have another two minutes left on a just metamorphosis

01:42:18.160 --> 01:42:20.720
A little bit longer going to be around

01:42:21.560 --> 01:42:23.400
but no

01:42:23.400 --> 01:42:26.240
Instead going to go over here secure the shrine

01:42:28.840 --> 01:42:34.000
Listen for everybody out there he swaps in the dust look at that carries that's what you want to see

01:42:34.680 --> 01:42:35.680
Just in case.

01:42:38.880 --> 01:42:40.680
Shadowblade, Soxa...

01:42:42.180 --> 01:42:44.680
Gonna try and do whatever you can to wrap this out.

01:42:44.680 --> 01:42:45.980
They need to buy time.

01:42:45.980 --> 01:42:49.180
I think if you're E-NX right now, you know there's split left and right on the map.

01:42:49.180 --> 01:42:50.680
Oh, we didn't have to dust back in!

01:42:50.680 --> 01:42:51.680
Alright, now you have to.

01:42:52.680 --> 01:42:54.180
I think this is your chance, man.

01:42:54.180 --> 01:42:58.680
I think if you take this outpost, you recognize that we are getting a little bit of pressure up the mid-wave right now.

01:42:58.680 --> 01:43:00.680
I mean, Tier 2 is out here, but he's on his own.

01:43:00.680 --> 01:43:01.680
The Aegis is expiring soon.

01:43:01.680 --> 01:43:06.220
I feel like if there's any opportunity to be going for an aggressive play, it's hitting right now.

01:43:06.220 --> 01:43:07.220
Yeah.

01:43:08.500 --> 01:43:12.000
Maybe around this bottom tier, it's tower potentially.

01:43:12.900 --> 01:43:15.100
I mean they're playing pretty far forward.

01:43:15.820 --> 01:43:20.260
The minute left, they're not feeling confident doing it.

01:43:21.100 --> 01:43:25.700
I mean it's again, I feel like the mental of this is so tough to be like,

01:43:26.580 --> 01:43:30.020
cannot fall into the trap of we just need one more item.

01:43:30.020 --> 01:43:33.320
Like, Team Spirit are running at your base, and it might not matter.

01:43:33.320 --> 01:43:35.520
Although that said, there is no seemscape.

01:43:36.220 --> 01:43:37.720
Have a little while left on that.

01:43:37.720 --> 01:43:40.320
Send the illusion forward, take that arrow.

01:43:40.720 --> 01:43:43.320
But the sorrow continues to hit the tier 3 tower.

01:43:43.320 --> 01:43:44.520
And skip the damage.

01:43:44.520 --> 01:43:45.720
DM forward.

01:43:45.720 --> 01:43:47.520
Low 30 seconds left.

01:43:48.520 --> 01:43:50.020
Gotta do something here.

01:43:50.020 --> 01:43:52.520
Gotta find a way to punish this.

01:43:54.920 --> 01:43:55.720
Thank you.

01:43:56.720 --> 01:43:58.220
This is not the time.

01:44:00.020 --> 01:44:03.020
If not now then when?

01:44:03.020 --> 01:44:06.020
Try and figure that out here.

01:44:09.020 --> 01:44:11.020
Damn, steady.

01:44:11.020 --> 01:44:12.020
Rock solid.

01:44:12.020 --> 01:44:13.020
Oh, Soxie.

01:44:13.020 --> 01:44:15.020
You came to the wrong neighborhood, sir.

01:44:15.020 --> 01:44:16.020
That was...

01:44:16.020 --> 01:44:18.020
That was never gonna work.

01:44:19.020 --> 01:44:21.020
A tense death

01:44:22.020 --> 01:44:23.020
for this nature's profit.

01:44:23.020 --> 01:44:24.020
And again, it's...

01:44:24.020 --> 01:44:25.020
It's what he kind of has to do.

01:44:25.020 --> 01:44:27.020
He has to people want to make it happen.

01:44:27.020 --> 01:44:28.020
Not me.

01:44:28.020 --> 01:44:30.020
Not me, the Hurricane Pike.

01:44:30.020 --> 01:44:33.520
They find Wattson out of the base, trying to bait a BKB out of him.

01:44:33.520 --> 01:44:35.520
The fear, the second round.

01:44:35.520 --> 01:44:38.520
Now popping Meta, they finally get the BKB out of him.

01:44:40.520 --> 01:44:45.020
Now everybody here, I mean, Ember is not actually joining the rest of the team.

01:44:45.020 --> 01:44:48.520
Almost the same way they forced his top racks last night against the Boom Boys.

01:44:48.520 --> 01:44:51.020
Catching Delina up there with their own Tiny.

01:44:51.020 --> 01:44:54.020
This time, they force him back.

01:44:54.020 --> 01:44:57.020
Yeah, besides to go in, he's rooted. BKB used.

01:44:57.020 --> 01:45:01.840
They don't have the BKB on the Shadow Feet though, so the damage coming out of DM is insane.

01:45:01.840 --> 01:45:07.340
You bring Thoros somewhat low, now the Winters curse Shadow Feet, hit this friend!

01:45:07.340 --> 01:45:08.940
That's fine, I feel it.

01:45:08.940 --> 01:45:13.020
If I had enough time to get out, and now they want me to keep going for more.

01:45:13.020 --> 01:45:14.840
They're not even trying to kill the Ember there, you know?

01:45:14.840 --> 01:45:15.340
Yeah.

01:45:15.340 --> 01:45:17.740
It's just, I'll push them back, we're gonna get these top racks.

01:45:17.740 --> 01:45:21.580
This simplifies your game a lot, because now it has constant pressure on the top side of the map.

01:45:21.580 --> 01:45:26.420
Uh, I'd say, I guess most teams, or most heroes, they wouldn't even have worked stalking out his game next,

01:45:26.420 --> 01:45:30.020
but this nature's profit has been constantly getting deep, catching a random wave,

01:45:30.020 --> 01:45:34.740
and it has delayed this situation where they're able to just trap you inside of your base.

01:45:34.740 --> 01:45:37.300
And now that you've managed to finish off one of these sets of racks,

01:45:37.300 --> 01:45:40.900
that pressure worry is running off. It's going to take a lot of the attention here from that

01:45:40.900 --> 01:45:44.340
nature's profit, and they can focus more on just the middle and top waves.

01:45:45.620 --> 01:45:50.020
If there is one right spot right now, it's of all the items that Utoro has,

01:45:50.020 --> 01:45:51.540
he does not have a BKB.

01:45:51.540 --> 01:45:55.380
Hang on, they have a good amount of match for damage.

01:45:55.380 --> 01:45:59.140
Lots of you can get in on top of them and do some type of a Requiem,

01:45:59.140 --> 01:46:00.140
or right click.

01:46:00.140 --> 01:46:02.740
Yeah, some pure damage there from the Timbersaw as well.

01:46:02.740 --> 01:46:04.540
This is something.

01:46:04.540 --> 01:46:07.940
He does still have 3380, so it's a lot to jump through.

01:46:07.940 --> 01:46:09.540
It's a lot, there's a Wyvern as well.

01:46:09.540 --> 01:46:11.740
You know, they have some issues for sure.

01:46:14.140 --> 01:46:16.340
They're getting most of what they wanted.

01:46:16.340 --> 01:46:23.340
And worth noting, you know, vision waiting in the grand finals and asked who it was

01:46:23.340 --> 01:46:26.640
that they wanted to play up against, it was Team Spirit.

01:46:26.640 --> 01:46:30.280
They felt like they were the team that was picking up steam and as evidenced by the

01:46:30.280 --> 01:46:35.680
last two days of 2-0s and now coming in strong in this game number one, it appears to be

01:46:35.680 --> 01:46:36.680
the case.

01:46:36.680 --> 01:46:39.680
There's a lot of Welfare here on Team Spirit.

01:46:39.680 --> 01:46:44.680
I don't know about that, maybe even a little sleep in the first couple minutes of this one, but they're up now.

01:46:44.680 --> 01:46:50.680
Kira, Jr. The glorious Aghanim Scepter for the Ember Spirit, much like the Underlord,

01:46:50.680 --> 01:46:56.680
that gives you the item of the hero, where it really feels like you operate on another level.

01:46:56.680 --> 01:47:00.680
Try and use that, Kira. It's again, Team Spirit.

01:47:00.680 --> 01:47:05.680
Coming in, not concerned about the Welfare, you can hit your Welfare, so I can.

01:47:05.680 --> 01:47:07.680
I need to get one more item.

01:47:09.200 --> 01:47:10.200
And X.

01:47:10.520 --> 01:47:17.520
I mean, you can see Laurel. He's smoked up outside, ready to go at a moment's notice, but they're just gonna keep sending him these illusions.

01:47:17.520 --> 01:47:20.020
Oh, it's an illusion push? I mean, why not?

01:47:20.020 --> 01:47:23.020
Back away from the arrow, let the illusions hit it.

01:47:23.020 --> 01:47:27.020
You gotta stop this terror blade at some point, and it's not super easy.

01:47:27.020 --> 01:47:32.020
Stop this 500-goal-of-lake-me-agnums. He knows how much stronger he's gonna be soon as your tuner.

01:47:32.020 --> 01:47:37.020
The Vantah illusion is not even leading the send of this road.

01:47:37.020 --> 01:47:40.020
And now DM comes out of the base in PKB'd.

01:47:40.020 --> 01:47:44.020
So they will be able to walk back inside, but now the fight feels really hard.

01:47:44.020 --> 01:47:46.020
Laurel taking a good chunk of damage,

01:47:46.020 --> 01:47:49.020
he'll push out, he doesn't even know the call of grace.

01:47:49.020 --> 01:47:51.020
Comes out right at the last second.

01:47:51.020 --> 01:47:55.020
The team spirit will not be taken down there.

01:47:55.020 --> 01:47:57.020
Toro, Lotus, stunned.

01:47:57.020 --> 01:48:00.020
The damage out, so they have enough of a direct hit, but there it is!

01:48:00.020 --> 01:48:02.340
It's the same pass, oh my god!

01:48:02.340 --> 01:48:05.420
But barely before he was able to get that thunder off,

01:48:05.420 --> 01:48:07.420
Dr. In pretty far, Malady has to back off,

01:48:07.420 --> 01:48:10.420
but Nami gets two shot there by the shadow feet.

01:48:10.420 --> 01:48:11.580
There he goes, just left,

01:48:11.580 --> 01:48:13.420
because he had enough knock flight.

01:48:13.420 --> 01:48:16.380
He needed a few more crits to end that one.

01:48:16.380 --> 01:48:19.420
But Yandex says we're not out of it yet.

01:48:19.420 --> 01:48:21.340
Finally, they just go a little bit too deep.

01:48:21.340 --> 01:48:24.980
A massive arrow connects there onto the terribly,

01:48:26.580 --> 01:48:28.340
a miracle moment there.

01:48:28.340 --> 01:48:33.060
any way to break the season doesn't look like it. A good bit of damage, but not enough.

01:48:35.060 --> 01:48:41.860
So they do manage to finally punish. It came at a heavy cost. Another tier 3 tower down,

01:48:41.860 --> 01:48:44.820
but they did get a lot of gold on the course. A lot of experience.

01:48:44.820 --> 01:48:47.780
I mean Team Spirit was looking to put the final nail in the coffin of this game though.

01:48:47.780 --> 01:48:50.900
And they were saying that if we can clean up this Rax and we get out of here just throwing

01:48:50.900 --> 01:48:54.980
out a pango roll and backing it up, how are they ever going to come back? So the

01:48:54.980 --> 01:48:58.380
Yandex, maybe all this patience has finally paid off.

01:48:58.380 --> 01:49:00.060
They found a big win here.

01:49:00.060 --> 01:49:01.860
The Aegis, it's a bit of a later spawn,

01:49:01.860 --> 01:49:03.660
is back up in another 50 seconds,

01:49:03.660 --> 01:49:05.440
so unfortunately for them,

01:49:05.440 --> 01:49:07.020
Yadar will be back in the game.

01:49:07.020 --> 01:49:08.780
They don't get one to break.

01:49:08.780 --> 01:49:10.900
Yeah, but they have a way to play for it,

01:49:10.900 --> 01:49:12.220
for very long.

01:49:12.220 --> 01:49:16.020
And you also just now completed the MKV.

01:49:16.020 --> 01:49:17.620
So while the butterfly was done,

01:49:17.620 --> 01:49:19.460
you didn't get a ton of value out of that.

01:49:19.460 --> 01:49:21.300
And then you're in the game.

01:49:21.300 --> 01:49:22.300
There's ways here

01:49:22.300 --> 01:49:23.980
that this could potentially turn around.

01:49:23.980 --> 01:49:29.820
It's only a 4k gold lead, the sort of creep advantage of having a lane of racks is going

01:49:29.820 --> 01:49:32.340
to be hurtful, but let's see, yeah.

01:49:32.340 --> 01:49:36.060
They also did finish the heart on the TN, so it's been one of the items of the tournament

01:49:36.060 --> 01:49:40.300
pretty much for every off laner, can you give them a better chance of staying alive

01:49:40.300 --> 01:49:45.820
in spite of trying to outlast the healing essentially of the Wyvern, as well as these

01:49:45.820 --> 01:49:49.660
parrots and just constant roots and delays of the engagement that come out from the

01:49:49.660 --> 01:49:50.660
Starquillo.

01:49:50.660 --> 01:49:55.140
You can just find his own way out and then back into the fight to get used to him.

01:49:55.140 --> 01:49:57.700
That spell slinger neutral item is well paired up with the heart.

01:49:57.700 --> 01:50:02.780
I feel like it gives you a little bit of a chance to just keep going as a timber.

01:50:02.780 --> 01:50:07.340
But he is into the next tier, so might find something a little stronger.

01:50:07.340 --> 01:50:09.340
Honestly, not much.

01:50:09.340 --> 01:50:11.460
No, I mean, Watson did a...

01:50:11.460 --> 01:50:13.460
It's a battle stage, actually.

01:50:13.460 --> 01:50:16.460
...as an option, because I didn't go for the gobbler instead.

01:50:16.460 --> 01:50:18.460
You can't get about the way this game is.

01:50:18.460 --> 01:50:20.460
Honestly, it's even better than some of that.

01:50:20.460 --> 01:50:22.460
I mean, 100% of attacks being slow.

01:50:22.460 --> 01:50:26.460
This is huge for DM if he gets on the right track with that Rattle Cush.

01:50:27.460 --> 01:50:31.460
You can always out an arrow, like the lamp on the road, out of the pit.

01:50:31.460 --> 01:50:35.460
You'll cover remnants around, get sorrel, pop there for a moment.

01:50:35.460 --> 01:50:37.460
It's a roll up.

01:50:37.460 --> 01:50:40.460
But they're not comfortable destroying right on into the pit here.

01:50:40.460 --> 01:50:43.460
You can damage out some DM hanging onto a DKB, pops it now.

01:50:43.460 --> 01:50:46.300
Now, as the terror blade hits into him,

01:50:46.300 --> 01:50:48.820
TM needs to back out of this one.

01:50:48.820 --> 01:50:50.860
Laurel has already used the panko roll as well,

01:50:50.860 --> 01:50:52.860
but the Sun, oh, there is a save,

01:50:52.860 --> 01:50:53.980
and he's gone!

01:50:53.980 --> 01:50:55.820
Does have eye back.

01:50:55.820 --> 01:50:58.140
If they want to try and take this fight with him,

01:50:58.140 --> 01:51:00.540
Soxa gets pushed out forward aggressively,

01:51:00.540 --> 01:51:03.900
but Kira Jr. did find the backline to kill off Rue.

01:51:03.900 --> 01:51:05.340
This would be a nice win for them there,

01:51:05.340 --> 01:51:07.060
at the very least, but can he get out afterwards?

01:51:07.060 --> 01:51:08.900
No, a triple kill!

01:51:08.900 --> 01:51:10.540
The Toro takes him down!

01:51:10.540 --> 01:51:14.040
It's bashed up by the pango, locked down for the kill.

01:51:14.040 --> 01:51:16.040
The damage is just unbelievable.

01:51:18.540 --> 01:51:20.540
Here it is retreating into their base, man.

01:51:20.540 --> 01:51:22.540
Yeah, he's gonna try something.

01:51:22.540 --> 01:51:24.540
Reckley, I'm thinking about it.

01:51:24.540 --> 01:51:25.540
Hopped it there.

01:51:25.540 --> 01:51:29.540
It's not quite doing enough to fear the hit on the collapse, but now controlled.

01:51:29.540 --> 01:51:32.540
The end is back, but he's already so low and already dead.

01:51:32.540 --> 01:51:34.540
And now they step forward back, lost it.

01:51:34.540 --> 01:51:36.540
Kill him too.

01:51:36.540 --> 01:51:39.540
A glimmer of hope and the door soars up.

01:51:40.540 --> 01:51:47.540
Unreal as they take down and win that game number one.

01:51:47.540 --> 01:51:49.540
Pausing the one and all.

01:51:49.540 --> 01:51:50.540
What happens?

01:51:50.540 --> 01:51:52.540
The headset's often hit the pause key here.

01:51:52.540 --> 01:51:56.540
The excitement of a game number one of the more bracket final.

01:51:56.540 --> 01:51:59.540
Domination to stroll here for teams here.

01:51:59.540 --> 01:52:01.540
Never letting up here.

01:52:01.540 --> 01:52:02.540
One little moment.

01:52:02.540 --> 01:52:03.540
One punish for viral.

01:52:03.540 --> 01:52:06.540
He throws the rolls a little bit there on the hang of the air.

01:52:06.540 --> 01:52:07.540
They got a kill.

01:52:07.540 --> 01:52:08.540
They find a couple.

01:52:08.540 --> 01:52:12.540
But even that little moment cannot be capitalized upon here by TeamVision.

01:52:13.540 --> 01:52:14.540
Struggles.

01:52:14.540 --> 01:52:18.540
They need to come up with some new answers to put you out right now.

01:52:19.540 --> 01:52:23.540
So they need to do a game number one going for Spirit.

01:52:23.540 --> 01:52:25.540
Feeling like a key a lot more today.

01:52:27.540 --> 01:52:35.540
Solid control from Team Spirit and it seems like ever since Team Spirit got knocked to the lower bracket by TeamVision

01:52:35.540 --> 01:52:39.500
They have been two owing everybody that they faced in the lower bracket

01:52:39.500 --> 01:52:44.300
And I think everybody is hoping that Yandex will not be another one of those

01:52:44.300 --> 01:52:50.460
We want a third game. We want a back and forth or deal because I think winter this wasn't very back and forth

01:52:51.460 --> 01:52:52.780
I'm afraid

01:52:52.780 --> 01:52:55.900
The drop was just very difficult for Yandex to play

01:52:55.900 --> 01:53:01.660
I'm sure they had their own ideas on what they wanted to do, but it just made the game so difficult because

01:53:01.660 --> 01:53:06.480
because they had very limited options against what Spirit had.

01:53:06.480 --> 01:53:10.560
Spirit had almost all the best heroes, like the Underlord was really good there,

01:53:10.560 --> 01:53:12.740
the Dark Wheel Lord, especially the Wyvern.

01:53:12.740 --> 01:53:17.080
Like, I felt like they didn't really need to adjust their initial picks.

01:53:17.080 --> 01:53:20.480
Somehow they saw the Pangolian, maybe they felt like,

01:53:20.480 --> 01:53:24.820
oh, I guess I should move my Nages forfeet away from the Call Roll

01:53:24.820 --> 01:53:28.160
into the Support Roll because I don't want to play that match up.

01:53:28.160 --> 01:53:32.940
But then why did you open the draft with that hero if you feel like it's so easily countered?

01:53:32.940 --> 01:53:38.020
Yeah, I felt for Yandex. Some pieces of the puzzle were moving towards success, but it didn't really all come together, right?

01:53:38.020 --> 01:53:41.620
Like, you did see Chirijunni's early aggression with the supports.

01:53:41.620 --> 01:53:46.420
Timbersaw not really able to enter the game if at any stage he was kind of chasing the opportunity.

01:53:46.420 --> 01:53:53.520
I think Chirijunni also as the game progressed, and he felt the intensity of the lack of teamfight and the pressure he was going to apply.

01:53:53.520 --> 01:53:58.520
He started like missing some spells, like he wasn't getting the slight change on the underlaw TP, getting tips and all that.

01:53:58.520 --> 01:54:04.720
It just felt like, not everyone on Yandex was performing at like 110% is what you needed for this draft to work.

01:54:04.720 --> 01:54:07.120
Like you cannot just like half-ass this draft and win.

01:54:07.120 --> 01:54:09.020
Like you need to truly play your best.

01:54:09.020 --> 01:54:15.120
It's a very difficult draft to win with due to the amount of tempo required, so just pretty much get it online.

01:54:16.920 --> 01:54:20.620
Yeah, I think it just didn't go so well for key heroes.

01:54:20.620 --> 01:54:27.620
Like, for example, DM dying top on Simisol, and then having to TP out multiple times back to the fountain.

01:54:27.620 --> 01:54:36.120
It meant that Yatoro had such a good start, such a good tempo, that he had the levels required to then go and contest the Wisdom Root at minute 7.

01:54:36.120 --> 01:54:41.620
At minute 7, Spirit go both, because Yatoro was able to go, and even when they break...

01:54:41.620 --> 01:54:44.620
You good there, Klaas? You good, man?

01:54:44.620 --> 01:54:46.620
I liked it when you had the audio for that!

01:54:46.620 --> 01:54:51.260
I guess we found out why the game was paused.

01:54:51.260 --> 01:54:55.140
Damn, but you just tried to unpause.

01:54:55.140 --> 01:54:56.940
Yeah, yeah, that's happening.

01:54:56.940 --> 01:55:02.060
They got such a good advantage from that even single maneuver, right, to just bring them

01:55:02.060 --> 01:55:05.900
back because Chiric Junior and Malady were playing really nicely with the Envy Spirit

01:55:05.900 --> 01:55:09.700
Rana combo, but Team Spirit were able to eat out a lot of the little advantages that

01:55:09.700 --> 01:55:11.300
just kept them afloat.

01:55:11.300 --> 01:55:20.780
Yeah, it was a tough game for Yamex and Team Spirit in classical Team Spirit TI form with

01:55:20.780 --> 01:55:22.420
Yatoro on his terror blade.

01:55:22.420 --> 01:55:28.140
I think when that hero came out on the side of Team Spirit it was their fourth pick and

01:55:28.140 --> 01:55:32.720
they picked it in a very strategic position where they could also still ban out two

01:55:32.720 --> 01:55:36.260
off laners that they didn't want to face on that lane.

01:55:36.260 --> 01:55:40.060
It just gave Yatoro all the freedom that he needed.

01:55:40.060 --> 01:55:46.580
I think even just the symbolism of him playing that hero take up. It just gives the whole team is like, you know what?

01:55:46.740 --> 01:55:51.000
We're chilling. We got your tour on TV. Yeah, it's like you see your tour on TV

01:55:51.000 --> 01:55:56.700
You see a TV game where you don't even need to buy a BKB that alone is incredible and like a 22 minutes, right?

01:55:56.700 --> 01:56:03.500
He has 16,000 net worth the second place player on his team had like what like 8.8 K 8.7 K or something like the whole game

01:56:03.500 --> 01:56:07.580
Was your Toro doesn't have anything of getting thrown at him. He can farm for it

01:56:07.580 --> 01:56:13.580
can do what he wants. He's 9-0-1 from lane and early map move. Like, it is just complete freedom.

01:56:13.580 --> 01:56:19.100
And that is a fjandex, like, coming into the series after having Spirit's number the entire season,

01:56:19.100 --> 01:56:23.980
that they've clearly beat them many times before. And they probably killed Yatoru in all those games.

01:56:23.980 --> 01:56:27.420
They probably shut down the map. They chased him in the jungle. But in this game,

01:56:27.420 --> 01:56:31.260
they just watched him. They just let him do his thing. There was like, there was no emphasis

01:56:31.260 --> 01:56:32.620
on Yatoru in this game.

01:56:32.620 --> 01:56:37.660
there was a knock and we talked on the panel already about how we wanted to see an active

01:56:37.660 --> 01:56:42.780
good first 20 minutes, especially from team Yandex. And we got a little bit of back and forth,

01:56:42.780 --> 01:56:46.780
but there was one fight in particular that might highlight exactly what happened this game as we

01:56:46.780 --> 01:56:51.180
head over to Purge. Thank you, Sheever. And there's a lot that led up to it, to be honest,

01:56:51.180 --> 01:56:55.580
because the lanes went better for Spirit than we expected. And the name of the game really

01:56:55.580 --> 01:56:59.260
for Spirit on a lot of their abilities was rooting their opponents. Watch what collapsed

01:56:59.260 --> 01:57:03.180
us here, pulls the creep waves to the right, trying to bait the shadow fiend to get in closer,

01:57:03.180 --> 01:57:06.860
and then he uses his pit of malice to do the first route. Then we have a second route from

01:57:06.860 --> 01:57:11.180
the dark willow, and they finally get another firestorm to run down Watson. So he actually did

01:57:11.180 --> 01:57:15.580
a little bit worse than normal for a shadow fiend. He did catch up the net worth, but the one

01:57:15.580 --> 01:57:19.580
person on the index that did really well with Shiro Junio here, he consistently was pressuring

01:57:19.580 --> 01:57:24.140
Laurel here. He's abusing a level six before his opponent timing here that resulted in Laurel's

01:57:24.140 --> 01:57:27.580
vest. So that part was going good. The Ember had good net worth and the pango was behind,

01:57:27.580 --> 01:57:31.180
but the downside is that Pango is going to be stronger later in that big teamfight.

01:57:31.180 --> 01:57:34.140
And the other player on the index that had a little bit of trouble was the Timbersaw.

01:57:34.140 --> 01:57:37.740
He died in the lane the one time, but look at this really good initiation by Naughton.

01:57:37.740 --> 01:57:41.980
First root with the fear which forces Timbersaw this way, which gives him a second root

01:57:41.980 --> 01:57:45.900
and tons of damage on top of that, really just provides for a good teamfight outcome.

01:57:45.900 --> 01:57:51.020
And they do this a second time here, great blind root into the terrorize, into a second root.

01:57:51.020 --> 01:57:53.500
This was just adding up really, really nicely for them.

01:57:53.500 --> 01:57:57.500
And on the other side, the index did eventually try to get collapsed and get some counter-kills.

01:57:57.500 --> 01:58:04.600
But they just really struggled to get these and ultimately what led what led to was this big fight at the 18 minute mark 14 spirit

01:58:04.600 --> 01:58:06.760
Watch how they start the fight instant pit of mouths

01:58:06.760 --> 01:58:10.960
That's gonna guarantee that ember can't get out that they're gonna be able to layer their disables now

01:58:10.960 --> 01:58:12.960
Did you another?

01:58:13.500 --> 01:58:18.520
Root into the terror eyes just easy easy chainsaw and even though Laurel's behind and that worth

01:58:18.520 --> 01:58:20.740
He just can kind of zip in and out on the pango

01:58:20.740 --> 01:58:23.420
This is the value of the hero his team fight is incredibly good

01:58:23.420 --> 01:58:26.700
It's on basically no matter what as long as you hit level six

01:58:26.700 --> 01:58:31.540
So great early game by team spirit making the best out of a slightly bad laning situation

01:58:31.540 --> 01:58:34.140
And they ultimately plus two team fights that we know they can win

01:58:36.060 --> 01:58:41.200
Thank you very much birds and we focus a lot in those first 20 minutes because we already said

01:58:41.860 --> 01:58:47.620
After the draft is done once it gets past that once your Toro gets all his items once the game is in a

01:58:48.220 --> 01:58:51.300
Little bit of a favor of team spirit later down the line

01:58:51.300 --> 01:58:55.200
It's all it's done unless team spirit makes massive mistakes is done

01:58:55.200 --> 01:59:01.060
So we focus on the first 20 minutes because that is where the game is played after the draft is done winter

01:59:01.060 --> 01:59:05.600
And you had some highlights from that as well for us to look at as you already saw the right you on the wall as well

01:59:05.840 --> 01:59:09.860
Yeah, but I wanted to highlight how well Yandex did in the early game

01:59:09.860 --> 01:59:15.060
Like how well they were able to utilize this amber plus Mirana to shut down the pangolin

01:59:15.060 --> 01:59:16.400
I was

01:59:16.400 --> 01:59:20.620
Expecting loud to have a much better game, but I think the reason why the early game was like

01:59:21.300 --> 01:59:25.980
a little bit complicated for Pangol was because of this Ember plus Arrow, like the change into

01:59:25.980 --> 01:59:31.020
arrows, I think he just kind of really didn't expect the power of it, I think he underestimated

01:59:31.020 --> 01:59:35.140
it, that's why he died, like I think three times in the early game, all three deaths,

01:59:35.140 --> 01:59:39.980
the Ember plus the Mirana just creating a lot of problems for Spirit in the early game,

01:59:39.980 --> 01:59:43.420
but like you guys mentioned, they spied the problems that Spirit had in the early

01:59:43.420 --> 01:59:47.660
game because they had the stability of the Terrabate in the mid-lane game, it wasn't

01:59:47.660 --> 01:59:50.860
a problem for them, they could be behind, I think they were behind at some point

01:59:50.860 --> 01:59:56.060
4K, 5K, but even if they were behind more like 6, 7, I will always feel like with their lineup

01:59:56.060 --> 01:59:58.660
They will have a lot of opportunities to come back in the game

01:59:58.660 --> 02:00:00.660
But you can see from those clips right the net worth

02:00:00.940 --> 02:00:05.580
Terrible it was always on top and like with the 3, 4,000 gold lead with killing of the pangler in the mid lane

02:00:05.580 --> 02:00:10.100
But if they could have found a different off laner that stepped into the lane that shoved maybe a

02:00:10.820 --> 02:00:15.380
Like we tore down, but I say 2,000 gold the game would have been completely different

02:00:15.380 --> 02:00:20.700
I think that the slight fact that the off lane wasn't able to put your Toro into the jungle earlier

02:00:20.700 --> 02:00:25.860
was the reason why Yandex couldn't snub all this game more and it's difficult in that position DM terrible

02:00:25.860 --> 02:00:28.260
Basement was banned the tide was banned the dark so was banned

02:00:28.300 --> 02:00:31.140
You're probably not going to try and pick up a brewmaster at this point

02:00:31.140 --> 02:00:36.600
The underlaw got stolen like there wasn't really many options to stop terror blade just farming and being a threat

02:00:36.740 --> 02:00:41.500
Yeah, it was it was a very good terror blade again very good terror blade pick and

02:00:41.980 --> 02:00:47.260
There's one more fight a week like to show you guys area as you have something to tell us of course

02:00:47.260 --> 02:00:50.880
I'll probably show that a little bit, but it doesn't matter. We're going to show it again

02:00:50.880 --> 02:00:56.100
I think the really nice thing here is just spirit being able to collapse all of their heroes together and take a fight like this

02:00:56.100 --> 02:01:00.480
Because at the end of the day, even if they did have a little less net worth on Yatoro

02:01:00.700 --> 02:01:06.220
Sure, it could give them more opportunities, but this just the spells alone are so much better

02:01:06.220 --> 02:01:12.640
It's so easy for spirit to take a fight their execution is at a much lower threshold of how to do it

02:01:12.640 --> 02:01:15.840
Right you can just put down a pit you can put down the willow rule on top of that

02:01:15.840 --> 02:01:21.280
It's so hard for Kira Junior, no matter what lead he accrued from getting this kill on Lall, what can he do?

02:01:21.280 --> 02:01:25.560
He is just good. He needs a DKB to be able to fight, so then making this early move is so good.

02:01:25.560 --> 02:01:31.200
And if you look after this fight happens, on the map, DM is gonna go off from farm here, and on the mini map,

02:01:31.200 --> 02:01:35.480
Yatoro goes through the enemy's triangle and takes their ancient camp,

02:01:35.480 --> 02:01:38.360
so that they then actually don't have it for the next minute of farm,

02:01:38.360 --> 02:01:41.480
and he's gonna then continue to farm all the way north to the gate,

02:01:41.480 --> 02:01:45.120
which allows him to connect to this fight that then breaks out on the bot side of the map,

02:01:45.120 --> 02:01:47.520
because the rest of the Spirit players moved together,

02:01:47.520 --> 02:01:51.920
then Yatoro was able to connect, and as a result, he is here for the Soxa kill,

02:01:51.920 --> 02:01:55.600
he is here for the rest of the kills, and they get a very nice secondary fight

02:01:55.600 --> 02:01:59.520
off the back of the first one. Just from really nice map play that took a...

02:01:59.520 --> 02:02:03.040
Just, I don't know, it was so much skill. I really love the way they played the map.

02:02:03.040 --> 02:02:06.960
I think with that, it's also clear to say, I mean, we focused a lot on the drafts,

02:02:06.960 --> 02:02:10.160
of course, about how, yeah, they might not have been able to play too much

02:02:10.160 --> 02:02:13.600
when it went later down the line, but it also kind of seems,

02:02:13.600 --> 02:02:16.340
And maybe Digo, it was just now play.

02:02:16.340 --> 02:02:21.340
Yeah, no, fundamentally yes, this game one was Spirit just being the better team.

02:02:21.340 --> 02:02:24.940
Like they knew what they wanted to do, they knew the timings, they were very clean on them.

02:02:24.940 --> 02:02:28.060
And I think for Yandex, they want to try and step up that.

02:02:28.060 --> 02:02:31.140
Yeah, and speaking of timings, there's one in particular timing,

02:02:31.140 --> 02:02:35.240
that you want to focus a little bit on, and it's a minute 20 timing,

02:02:35.240 --> 02:02:37.460
and we already talk all about objectives, there's one objective,

02:02:37.460 --> 02:02:42.240
spawns a minute 20 and then every 10 minutes after that, if it does die.

02:02:42.240 --> 02:02:47.520
Yeah, you have to be there at the right place at the right time because the clip we just showed spirit then kind of moved into

02:02:47.760 --> 02:02:51.600
The tormentor and of the top three teams left at the international

02:02:51.840 --> 02:02:57.200
I have to wonder is the tormentor worth it because spirit in the 21 games they played this is such a massive difference

02:02:57.200 --> 02:03:02.800
Sorry for interrupting. That's fine. These stats are before the uh spirit series yesterday by the way just to be aware

02:03:03.120 --> 02:03:07.280
Uh, but anyways, there was 21 games 24 tormentors. They take 1.14 average per game

02:03:07.280 --> 02:03:13.480
You look towards vision and yandex they ignore tormentor and or it gets stolen away from them quite heavily

02:03:13.560 --> 02:03:15.680
So I feel like at least with vision and yandex

02:03:15.680 --> 02:03:20.760
I've seen so many games where they've had four five heroes next to the tormentor and they just walk away from it

02:03:20.760 --> 02:03:25.840
They don't care so I just feel like today will be a big day of donor where it's like what happens in the next game

02:03:25.840 --> 02:03:27.280
If the index is in a winning position

02:03:27.280 --> 02:03:34.160
Do they value breaking out onto the map choking out the map more just to take the tormentor it does take some time

02:03:34.160 --> 02:03:37.160
It's quite a difficult resource. It's not just one hero doing it by themselves

02:03:37.280 --> 02:03:40.560
So for Spirit, that beauty of the map play that we've just seen in the clip,

02:03:40.560 --> 02:03:42.560
they can take it very quickly because they're there.

02:03:42.560 --> 02:03:45.200
Other teams though, they don't always have that fluid motion,

02:03:45.200 --> 02:03:46.160
so they aren't going for it.

02:03:46.160 --> 02:03:49.840
But Spirit, they are the one team that they will go for Tormenter.

02:03:49.840 --> 02:03:51.920
I mean, I do want to add something onto that.

02:03:51.920 --> 02:03:54.640
I feel like if you just look at the stats,

02:03:54.640 --> 02:03:58.560
it might not show that sometimes when you're winning in the game,

02:03:58.560 --> 02:04:01.840
because Tormenter is also based on whether you're winning or losing.

02:04:01.840 --> 02:04:03.040
I think when you're winning right now,

02:04:03.040 --> 02:04:06.480
it just doesn't really feel like you should give up your position on the map.

02:04:06.480 --> 02:04:09.680
like what Alex also brought up like you want to farm the enemy jungle you want to be in

02:04:09.680 --> 02:04:13.840
their jungle you want to farm their triangle and moving from the enemy triangle to the

02:04:13.840 --> 02:04:17.520
tormentor is just like so far away like why why would you want to do that when you are in a

02:04:17.520 --> 02:04:22.240
dominant position so I feel like Dota now has changed so much I think maybe a couple of months

02:04:22.240 --> 02:04:26.880
ago you never hear people say that you're always saying for mother just way too good it gives

02:04:26.880 --> 02:04:31.200
you way too much go it's just easier to take you can take it with three people but right

02:04:31.200 --> 02:04:35.600
now things have changed I also find that's like with the yandex game where they ignored it

02:04:35.600 --> 02:04:39.380
It's like they're heroes that needed charts or they were kind of bad charts

02:04:39.380 --> 02:04:44.700
So like what's the point of taking it would rather like choke out the jungle and continue doing these other things

02:04:45.500 --> 02:04:46.620
Maybe

02:04:46.620 --> 02:04:51.580
Our taking it is also to take it away from a team that does need it

02:04:51.900 --> 02:04:57.060
But in this first game team spirit, they're positioning their gameplay in their draft

02:04:57.060 --> 02:05:03.500
Just make them the superior team and they're having quite the onslaught here in the lower bracket in yandex is on the receiving

02:05:03.500 --> 02:05:07.500
the game. They have proven that

02:05:07.500 --> 02:05:09.500
they can come back from tough

02:05:09.500 --> 02:05:11.500
series when they're in a tight

02:05:11.500 --> 02:05:13.500
spot. They might pull out the

02:05:13.500 --> 02:05:15.500
biggest best strategies they've

02:05:15.500 --> 02:05:17.500
ever played here on the main

02:05:17.500 --> 02:05:18.500
stage, and they need to do

02:05:18.500 --> 02:05:20.500
exactly that if they want to

02:05:20.500 --> 02:05:22.500
try and beat this team spirit

02:05:22.500 --> 02:05:24.500
because that first game was

02:05:24.500 --> 02:05:26.500
not it going into game number

02:05:26.500 --> 02:05:28.500
two. Shortly, Freya. What do

02:05:28.500 --> 02:05:30.500
you expect to see? Is there

02:05:30.500 --> 02:05:32.500
any adjustments that were

02:05:32.500 --> 02:05:35.620
that were obvious from you after watching this first game.

02:05:35.620 --> 02:05:39.100
Honestly, I think I'm just a little scared about their drafting now

02:05:39.100 --> 02:05:43.380
because, as Winter pointed out, if you first pick this Nature's Prophet,

02:05:43.380 --> 02:05:46.340
if you see Vision, for example, first pick Nature's Prophet,

02:05:46.340 --> 02:05:47.900
you know it's going to go on their carry

02:05:47.900 --> 02:05:50.020
and you know that he understands the matchups well enough

02:05:50.020 --> 02:05:53.060
to play it into, for example, a pango when that comes out.

02:05:53.060 --> 02:05:58.020
I think them shifting that and showing that they're not so confident

02:05:58.020 --> 02:06:00.820
feels bad, especially because they're replacing Nature's Prophet

02:06:00.820 --> 02:06:04.400
with another similar archetype in the Shadow Fiend.

02:06:04.400 --> 02:06:06.280
So it doesn't even mean that they're kind of like,

02:06:06.280 --> 02:06:09.680
oh, you picked these heroes that counter our ranged carry.

02:06:09.680 --> 02:06:10.520
Right?

02:06:10.520 --> 02:06:12.000
Let's switch up and pick an Ursa,

02:06:12.000 --> 02:06:13.280
not that they should because that hero's terrible.

02:06:13.280 --> 02:06:14.440
But you know what I mean, right?

02:06:14.440 --> 02:06:16.560
It's like saying, oh, here's another ranged carry

02:06:16.560 --> 02:06:18.400
and then we have a supported Prophet.

02:06:18.400 --> 02:06:20.200
It's didn't really have that impact

02:06:20.200 --> 02:06:22.840
or like that twist in the draft.

02:06:22.840 --> 02:06:24.120
But it's also a scary prospect.

02:06:24.120 --> 02:06:26.800
When you are drafting against players like Yatoro,

02:06:26.800 --> 02:06:29.000
like Zatanic, even Watson to some degree,

02:06:29.000 --> 02:06:33.640
like when you reveal your offline too early, they'll find the correct carry counter pick. They will scale,

02:06:33.640 --> 02:06:38.280
they are now a big threat. And then if you pick your offline too late, the carry's already been picked,

02:06:38.280 --> 02:06:42.200
you've protected it with enough bands, you have the correct support to counter the inevitable picks,

02:06:42.200 --> 02:06:45.960
and this is exactly what happened in this game. So if you're like the DM, they just need to find

02:06:45.960 --> 02:06:49.640
the correct pick position for him because he was left too late in the draft. There's too many

02:06:49.640 --> 02:06:53.560
bands, too many block picks, and they're terribly when unprotected. So it's like, if you're

02:06:53.560 --> 02:06:57.160
scared of terribly, you have to preemptively go for DM and go, you know what, we'll casually go

02:06:57.160 --> 02:07:00.620
go on the Lord, we don't care, we'll ban some life stealer or whatever, we'll play a game

02:07:00.620 --> 02:07:05.360
of Dota 2 but I think DM's pick position will decide if Yandex are to survive this

02:07:05.360 --> 02:07:06.360
lower bracket.

02:07:06.360 --> 02:07:09.120
I think you're right, they're worrying too much about what Spirit is going to do or

02:07:09.120 --> 02:07:13.360
might do and maybe they should just focus on what they should do, what is the setup

02:07:13.360 --> 02:07:17.320
that they have to have in order to play the best as a team.

02:07:17.320 --> 02:07:21.240
I mean counter picking is nice and all but if you worry about it too much,

02:07:21.240 --> 02:07:25.040
if you try to lean into it too much, you're going to ruin your own draft.

02:07:25.040 --> 02:07:29.880
And I think that's something that is very very hard to balance sometimes especially at this stage

02:07:29.880 --> 02:07:35.800
There's so much at stake. There's a lot of heroes that you're worried about and sometimes you cannot ban all the heroes

02:07:35.800 --> 02:07:39.380
So when that happens you really have to put faith in your own heroes

02:07:40.020 --> 02:07:44.440
There was the opening pick that the overall first pick went the way it's used to it in that previous game

02:07:44.440 --> 02:07:46.720
They went for the winter Wyvern and we talked a little bit about that

02:07:47.240 --> 02:07:48.920
Obviously had a great impact in the game

02:07:48.920 --> 02:07:53.680
But we highlighted all their players and heroes maybe a little bit more than rules winter Wyvern winter

02:07:53.680 --> 02:07:58.320
Do you feel like the priority should be given to this hero to be banned this time round?

02:07:58.320 --> 02:08:01.200
Was he a major factor as to how this game played out?

02:08:01.200 --> 02:08:05.200
I think the hero was definitely strong, but I don't think he needed to do much.

02:08:05.200 --> 02:08:08.800
The last game, I felt like everything was just like really straightforward.

02:08:08.800 --> 02:08:15.120
The pangol, the underlaw, the lanes are all pushed because of the fact he was uncontested.

02:08:15.120 --> 02:08:19.520
So I mean sure, I really liked the hero, but I don't think he had to do a lot the last game.

02:08:19.520 --> 02:08:24.640
No, he just he was able to chill the game. We kind of maybe almost played out already

02:08:24.640 --> 02:08:27.920
We'll see where the teams that go for game number two

02:08:28.240 --> 02:08:32.880
There might be a lot of things different a lot of lessons learned from that one game

02:08:32.880 --> 02:08:34.720
Of course while the game was played out

02:08:34.720 --> 02:08:40.640
We also have the coaches watching the game they could already preemptively strategize how they're gonna adapt

02:08:40.920 --> 02:08:45.340
Going in to the next one. Let's see what storm they have cooked up

02:08:49.520 --> 02:08:57.120
Team Yandex versus Team Spirit. Game 2.

02:09:00.120 --> 02:09:02.920
The draft of game number 2 is upon us.

02:09:02.920 --> 02:09:06.320
So we got Team Spirit on the Radiant side this time around,

02:09:06.320 --> 02:09:07.920
and Yandex on the Dire side.

02:09:07.920 --> 02:09:10.720
So we swapped that around. We also swapped the pick order.

02:09:10.720 --> 02:09:14.320
We have Yandex with the overall first pick,

02:09:14.320 --> 02:09:16.520
and Team Spirit with the overall last pick.

02:09:16.520 --> 02:09:22.200
Now normally overall last pick is a strategic advantage, the last game we saw Yandex being

02:09:22.200 --> 02:09:28.120
pushed in a corner forced to pick a Timbersaw at that position that did not work out too well.

02:09:28.120 --> 02:09:32.600
Let's see if Yandex can set a similar trap as we do have the Winter Wyvern,

02:09:32.600 --> 02:09:37.160
respected by Team Spirit, Bounty Hunter, also still out just like the Earth Spirit of the

02:09:37.160 --> 02:09:43.080
Tree and I feel like those four heroes that Team Spirit has banned out, those are

02:09:43.080 --> 02:09:48.720
are going to be stuck there for quite a while today.

02:09:48.720 --> 02:09:51.520
The main member and the Slardar removed by Yandex.

02:09:51.520 --> 02:09:52.960
No, I really like teams for his fans.

02:09:52.960 --> 02:09:54.480
I think they are very stable.

02:09:54.480 --> 02:09:57.520
It's also a sign that they don't care about the leaners,

02:09:57.520 --> 02:09:59.080
the shadow fiends, all these other heroes

02:09:59.080 --> 02:10:00.600
that we have been seeing in the tournament.

02:10:00.600 --> 02:10:02.560
It's just a matter of like, we care more

02:10:02.560 --> 02:10:04.040
about the building blocks that

02:10:04.040 --> 02:10:05.600
make these other heroes successful.

02:10:05.600 --> 02:10:07.760
Like the Wyvern makes the other one strong.

02:10:07.760 --> 02:10:09.920
And obviously the tree, the earthspur and the bounty

02:10:09.920 --> 02:10:11.120
make talk for themselves.

02:10:11.120 --> 02:10:13.680
but yeah, I like the first one nicely.

02:10:14.720 --> 02:10:16.520
I mean, I know we didn't really get to talk a lot

02:10:16.520 --> 02:10:19.240
about like the sides, but I just wanted to,

02:10:19.240 --> 02:10:20.480
you know, have a little discussion

02:10:20.480 --> 02:10:22.720
about when we have time, you know, about the sides.

02:10:22.720 --> 02:10:24.960
I think usually we just mentioned about,

02:10:24.960 --> 02:10:27.240
oh, your first pick, your second pick after the last pick,

02:10:27.240 --> 02:10:29.520
but does the sides actually feel like

02:10:29.520 --> 02:10:31.920
one side gives you a little bit of advantage?

02:10:31.920 --> 02:10:34.360
Like, I think as a player right now,

02:10:34.360 --> 02:10:38.320
like the benefit of being on the dire side

02:10:38.320 --> 02:10:40.680
is like the commenter might be easier

02:10:40.680 --> 02:10:45.800
for you to get. But for the Radiance side, you might feel like it's easier to get the

02:10:45.800 --> 02:10:49.840
Roche because the Roche goes top when the Tom spawns at 20 minutes. And if you have

02:10:49.840 --> 02:10:54.520
a Desolator hero, you can always easily, or a Helm hero, you can always get the Roche

02:10:54.520 --> 02:10:59.200
easy. I was just wondering what do you guys think about having either Radiant or Diode,

02:10:59.200 --> 02:11:01.120
do you feel like it's easier to play the game on you?

02:11:01.120 --> 02:11:04.040
Before I answer that question, I will say right now I believe that the people

02:11:04.040 --> 02:11:08.560
are fighting over First Pick, before side, and then whatever is available then they

02:11:08.560 --> 02:11:13.040
they just take. But first pick is the one that people take in the coin flip. But I lean

02:11:13.040 --> 02:11:18.120
towards Radiant myself because of the outpost, the Russian control, the general map movement

02:11:18.120 --> 02:11:23.520
that's always sort of cleaner throughout the Radiant side. It's easier to protect areas,

02:11:23.520 --> 02:11:25.320
in my opinion at least.

02:11:25.320 --> 02:11:33.160
Yeah, I'm not sure what the actual stats are for sides in this tournament. It's relatively

02:11:33.160 --> 02:11:37.280
even I believe, I think last time we saw it, it's slightly dire favoured. But that

02:11:37.280 --> 02:11:41.120
It could also be because Dyer often gets first pick, so it's hard to judge.

02:11:41.120 --> 02:11:45.560
Do you know when you always ask about side, there's going to be some actual analytical

02:11:45.560 --> 02:11:50.280
points of why one might be better, but then they do it like a vibes thing, and as a support

02:11:50.280 --> 02:11:53.880
player I prefer playing the Radiant safe lane than Dyer safe lane.

02:11:53.880 --> 02:11:57.600
It can also come down to this like a minutiae, like if one player is vocal enough, this

02:11:57.600 --> 02:12:00.080
makes my game easier, you just take it.

02:12:00.080 --> 02:12:04.200
Even if it goes against the trend, it's like, if you've got 33 in your team and

02:12:04.200 --> 02:12:06.720
He says, you know, Dyer is better because I like this thing.

02:12:06.720 --> 02:12:07.800
You're like, you just do it, you know?

02:12:07.800 --> 02:12:08.800
It's like...

02:12:08.800 --> 02:12:12.800
If your mid laner tells you I won Radeon, I'm not going to ask him why, I'm just okay.

02:12:12.800 --> 02:12:15.600
Right now I've got the exact stats for you.

02:12:15.600 --> 02:12:16.600
Oh, wonderful.

02:12:16.600 --> 02:12:17.600
51-49.

02:12:17.600 --> 02:12:18.600
Oh.

02:12:18.600 --> 02:12:19.600
For Radeon?

02:12:19.600 --> 02:12:20.600
In favor of Dyer.

02:12:20.600 --> 02:12:21.600
In favor of Dyer.

02:12:21.600 --> 02:12:22.600
Wow.

02:12:22.600 --> 02:12:23.600
I do like Dyer, I think.

02:12:23.600 --> 02:12:24.600
I'll be in the under the last one.

02:12:24.600 --> 02:12:25.600
I don't think it's...

02:12:25.600 --> 02:12:28.100
Apparently there's nothing that's swaying it actually hard in any direction.

02:12:28.100 --> 02:12:29.100
Why do you like Dyer?

02:12:29.100 --> 02:12:33.480
I think the way the camps sit for safe lane, a duo camp behind tower, it feels

02:12:33.480 --> 02:12:38.400
nicer to me but maybe I'm crazy okay one one thing I would say that okay I know

02:12:38.400 --> 02:12:45.240
there's no Trion but when I play Trion it's easier to get from from dire to

02:12:45.240 --> 02:12:49.100
radium sorry from radium to diet because when you're getting from diet to

02:12:49.100 --> 02:12:55.640
radium that's you need to take because you cannot cross you cannot

02:12:55.640 --> 02:12:59.240
cross the tower without being spotted I will say last words on this it was

02:12:59.240 --> 02:13:06.520
actually 51 for Radiant. But I do want to focus on the draft that is unfolding for us as we have got

02:13:06.520 --> 02:13:10.840
the first couple of picks on the board and the Clockwork makes it through. We see the Underlord

02:13:10.840 --> 02:13:16.360
and the Lone Druid banned out in the second phase here and the Clockwork picked up, sets up for a

02:13:16.360 --> 02:13:24.360
nice potential ranged carry. I say that but both Rue and not me have swapped Clockwork and Hoodwink

02:13:24.360 --> 02:13:29.160
around freely to see what fits best with the other cores that are coming our way.

02:13:29.160 --> 02:13:34.440
And unlike Yandex in the previous game, Spirit's approach to second pick here is take two really

02:13:34.440 --> 02:13:40.360
reliable supports that can interchange lane between top and bot and also pair well together

02:13:40.360 --> 02:13:44.920
that they can go find kills on the map, they can be pesky and just stable. But then you're

02:13:44.920 --> 02:13:48.600
not revealing anything. Compare that to Yandex where they had what, the Nature's Prophet

02:13:48.600 --> 02:13:52.600
into the Ember Spirit. There are two potential cores, of course Prophet did eventually go to

02:13:52.600 --> 02:13:55.920
support but I think we're like spirit they're kind of holding the cards close

02:13:55.920 --> 02:13:58.840
to their chest and now Yandex has to decide what they reveal.

02:13:58.840 --> 02:14:02.920
I think they should pick their mid hero or someone. Okay but they're picking the off laner.

02:14:02.920 --> 02:14:08.040
This is something that T.U mentioned that they should try to prioritize pick DM's hero or they

02:14:08.040 --> 02:14:13.520
because every time we see them delay his pick it just feels like hmm I guess

02:14:13.520 --> 02:14:16.840
there's his doom you know there's not many options remaining late that's

02:14:16.840 --> 02:14:20.840
why not just pick it early because doom is a hero where he doesn't really

02:14:20.840 --> 02:14:27.280
Mind being in a worse matchup, you're still gonna find a way to come back in the game by eating creeps and the shard

02:14:27.400 --> 02:14:32.160
You can recover in the game. I think heroes that are like this should be picked early

02:14:32.800 --> 02:14:37.280
Can they not... I mean I know they just profit to keep you on but like you can still go back for like the drought

02:14:37.280 --> 02:14:41.160
That you told me before you have to float books. Just go super nuclear in the lane

02:14:41.160 --> 02:14:44.960
They would really try and just kill this dude. That's why they should pick the right support

02:14:44.960 --> 02:14:48.460
I think Lume with the right support can play that. You can play the lane. Yeah

02:14:48.460 --> 02:14:53.260
I got a range support like, for example, Lion, anything that can help you stabilize the lane.

02:14:53.260 --> 02:14:54.760
Is it Willow still fine?

02:14:54.760 --> 02:14:56.060
Yeah, Willow's still fine too.

02:14:56.060 --> 02:14:59.560
But I think against Clocked Up, maybe I prefer Lion, but they go for the SD.

02:14:59.560 --> 02:15:02.960
Maybe a preemptive measurement against the S.D.

02:15:02.960 --> 02:15:04.960
They feel like maybe S.D. is coming.

02:15:04.960 --> 02:15:07.260
I think S.D. is really, really good against that.

02:15:07.260 --> 02:15:09.760
And it's very nice to have Doom with S.D.

02:15:09.760 --> 02:15:11.260
because Doom likes to clear stacks.

02:15:11.260 --> 02:15:13.860
And S.D. is the best stacking hero.

02:15:13.860 --> 02:15:14.760
And it's very simple.

02:15:14.760 --> 02:15:19.960
Destruct Hero, everyone clutches on it during the laning phase, profit TP's in, you get killed, then you reset.

02:15:19.960 --> 02:15:24.360
So Yandex trying to remain stable within the first few clicks of this draft.

02:15:24.360 --> 02:15:29.560
I don't feel like this hero has gone a little bit under the radar. I don't know if you guys played a lot of SD recently,

02:15:29.560 --> 02:15:32.360
but I do think that this hero is a little bit underpicked.

02:15:33.560 --> 02:15:34.360
So there it is.

02:15:35.160 --> 02:15:38.760
I think Shadow Demon was very popular at the beginning of the tournament,

02:15:38.760 --> 02:15:43.160
but then just kind of fell out of favor. It was like Wyvern, Rose in dominance,

02:15:43.160 --> 02:15:47.160
And I'll just see now they're getting banned. We're kind of coming back to over liable.

02:15:48.160 --> 02:15:52.160
The thing for the Andex is they are falling into the same trap to some degree in the last game.

02:15:52.160 --> 02:15:55.160
Like, where is their lockdown? Because they have a doom.

02:15:55.160 --> 02:15:59.160
But when you press it right now, your best way to hold them still is a disruption. That's it.

02:15:59.160 --> 02:16:03.160
And then Spirit identify that, instantly going for the centaur, even going for the pangaroo as well.

02:16:03.160 --> 02:16:06.160
Because let's say Yatoru is the big focus. He gets doomed.

02:16:06.160 --> 02:16:10.160
Pangulya can come in, rolling thunder. By some time you can kite back with the double four stuff.

02:16:10.160 --> 02:16:14.060
double four stuff, supports to keep the Toro alive mid during team, like Yandex need to

02:16:14.060 --> 02:16:17.780
find some ways to lock heroes down. Of course, normally here you'd look towards what's into

02:16:17.780 --> 02:16:22.160
playing, you know, some tiny or whatever, but that's going to then put Saksa back on

02:16:22.160 --> 02:16:23.160
the edge of proper support.

02:16:23.160 --> 02:16:27.760
I mean, I still like some mid heroes that can help them deal with it. Okay, this is

02:16:27.760 --> 02:16:31.720
not exactly the hero that I had in mind. It's a lane winner against the pangol,

02:16:31.720 --> 02:16:35.560
but it doesn't really help them start the fight. It's a good connecting hero,

02:16:35.560 --> 02:16:38.360
but it seems like in both games, in the first game and the second game, Yandex

02:16:38.360 --> 02:16:42.760
has a lot of priority in getting lane winning matchup. So they are completely okay with

02:16:42.760 --> 02:16:45.800
sacrificing a little bit of like drab integrity. They don't really have a lot

02:16:45.800 --> 02:16:50.200
of catch right now apart from disrupt. Disrupt is not exactly a catch. So if they

02:16:50.200 --> 02:16:53.800
don't win their lanes again, it's gonna be tough and I don't know if the last

02:16:53.800 --> 02:16:57.920
last pick here is gonna solve a lot of problems. I only see maybe disrupts a

02:16:57.920 --> 02:17:01.960
being a hero that would give them some some catch but that hero has so far

02:17:01.960 --> 02:17:06.440
gone uncapped. But that is the only possible hero I think remaining. Unless

02:17:06.440 --> 02:17:10.320
there's something you know spicy then I feel like I can maybe solve some of the

02:17:10.320 --> 02:17:16.080
holes in the draft. I agree because obviously if someone is doomed and you

02:17:16.080 --> 02:17:20.120
spit the Sapphire ult on top of them they should die but Sampdow just ruins

02:17:20.120 --> 02:17:25.240
everything. I think they need to be doing him every single fight in which

02:17:25.240 --> 02:17:29.600
case I would like to get something as well that can give vision for Yandex

02:17:29.600 --> 02:17:33.440
because right now your natures wants to find the prime target and TP onto

02:17:33.440 --> 02:17:37.760
your doom wants to find the right doom tuck it and get onto them but your shadow demon is playing backline

02:17:37.760 --> 02:17:43.200
Your snapfire is playing backline your nature probably wants to play backline. So who are you sending it first?

02:17:43.840 --> 02:17:49.000
You know be your carry or are you are you looking for a nature's prophet to be a position for here?

02:17:49.000 --> 02:17:51.440
Or are you looking for a new carry experience respect in the

02:17:52.120 --> 02:17:53.560
Carriott mode with the Tuskman

02:17:53.560 --> 02:17:58.920
I think the idea of just winning lanes is scary for them and they know that profit us will win the lane

02:17:58.920 --> 02:18:04.260
And of course, Sapphire will win mid lane, so that's already two winning lanes during that day away

02:18:04.260 --> 02:18:08.220
I mean if they want to win the last lane, maybe they need to pick a melee hero like some

02:18:08.940 --> 02:18:14.120
Tiny steal a velour, Tiny is a velour, maybe if they pick Tiny, it will give them a way to catch heroes and

02:18:14.460 --> 02:18:19.120
I think this game I see more of a reason to swap the mages proper to a support

02:18:19.380 --> 02:18:23.380
But the last game kinda I didn't really like it so much, but this game it could work

02:18:23.380 --> 02:18:25.880
The last game was also done very early

02:18:25.880 --> 02:18:30.880
Yeah, and I was mentioning to you guys in the green room if they wanted to flex at the nature's power

02:18:30.880 --> 02:18:33.400
Why would they flex it so early? Why would they reveal it's a flex so early?

02:18:33.400 --> 02:18:38.360
Why not just wait till the end when you see more here's and then decide whether you want to flex it?

02:18:38.880 --> 02:18:41.880
and I think this is a decent example of a

02:18:42.680 --> 02:18:48.360
Good time to actually decide whether you want to flex it the overall last big ball again next year

02:18:50.200 --> 02:18:54.320
Other than tiny carry I'm not seeing another carry that goes that really kind of

02:18:54.320 --> 02:18:59.120
makes the whole draft feel complete because of that need of that additional stun.

02:18:59.120 --> 02:19:02.220
Like the fact that they are looking for an initiating hero,

02:19:02.220 --> 02:19:08.220
if what's it is to take it, like there aren't many areas that maybe could work.

02:19:08.220 --> 02:19:12.620
I mean you can also go out from work, you can also do the Windranger where sure it's a Centaur

02:19:12.620 --> 02:19:15.720
but we've seen this matchup be fine, the Windranger you play elsewhere,

02:19:15.720 --> 02:19:19.720
you don't focus fire, crazy concept and then you focus fire other heroes but

02:19:19.720 --> 02:19:25.260
They even got a spare breaker. They really are going, hmm, what's a melee body that has

02:19:25.260 --> 02:19:26.260
cash?

02:19:26.260 --> 02:19:32.540
They really need cash, some stun here. Doesn't matter if it's a support hero or a core hero,

02:19:32.540 --> 02:19:33.540
they just need a stun.

02:19:33.540 --> 02:19:38.420
And Spirit's also going like, we literally don't care about profit support.

02:19:38.420 --> 02:19:42.780
That's how that melee support that we forgot about.

02:19:42.780 --> 02:19:47.460
It's not a stun, but it's a body. It's really good against the center in the lane.

02:19:47.460 --> 02:19:52.300
So you can see the focus here on Yannick's very clearly, they want to win the lanes and

02:19:52.300 --> 02:19:54.300
they want to run them over.

02:19:54.300 --> 02:19:57.780
And also they just have like, they're going to take over areas and just try to stand there,

02:19:57.780 --> 02:19:58.780
right?

02:19:58.780 --> 02:20:01.140
Like they put down their tombstone, they have the globs, they've got a doom who's like

02:20:01.140 --> 02:20:04.180
threatening the use of it, but also kind of scared to use it at any point in the

02:20:04.180 --> 02:20:06.140
entire game due to stampede.

02:20:06.140 --> 02:20:09.740
But you know, like they are just going to try and take over jungle areas and go,

02:20:09.740 --> 02:20:13.220
Watson, join us when you're ready, we're ready to try and fight.

02:20:13.220 --> 02:20:14.980
But I am still a little worried for them.

02:20:14.980 --> 02:20:15.980
Still a little worried.

02:20:15.980 --> 02:20:21.020
But because they're still a hero needed for the man on your screen, and he has deep pockets,

02:20:21.020 --> 02:20:24.820
and he will use only the ones laying on top.

02:20:24.820 --> 02:20:31.820
It's a little sharpie, not a hero that is unfamiliar for this international, a very

02:20:31.820 --> 02:20:32.820
strong pick.

02:20:32.820 --> 02:20:35.420
It's his second game only on Shadow Fiend, so...

02:20:35.420 --> 02:20:39.260
Yeah, it fits the same archetype of all the other heroes he plays, so it's not

02:20:39.260 --> 02:20:41.740
something that would be unfamiliar.

02:20:41.740 --> 02:20:43.420
It fits perfectly into the draft.

02:20:43.420 --> 02:20:47.520
completely I think spirits line up is so coordinated you have the melee support

02:20:47.520 --> 02:20:52.020
already from earlier you have the sento who can buy the axe, cards to protect

02:20:52.020 --> 02:20:56.860
Hitoro in fights it's a range hero that can also deal with the tombstone and if

02:20:56.860 --> 02:21:01.420
Yandex has a huge face with the Roshan banner I think he can also do that with the ability for

02:21:01.420 --> 02:21:06.980
some time to save him after. I really like it I think Yandex it's so so

02:21:06.980 --> 02:21:10.900
scary and I think that the way this is sometimes plays as well is typically

02:21:10.900 --> 02:21:16.720
you want it to have the shot and get two some saves off but it feels like you need him to be the one that can walk up

02:21:16.720 --> 02:21:18.720
high grounds as well and like

02:21:19.120 --> 02:21:22.640
Tank smokes and things like that. It just feels like they're giving up

02:21:23.080 --> 02:21:29.280
Possibly utility of some of their heroes because they drop is not super complete. The spirit doesn't need more time this time around right like the

02:21:29.280 --> 02:21:34.960
Claps and tour he's gonna have to buy dorm into heart and then of course your toro needs items on a shadow pin and then yandex

02:21:34.960 --> 02:21:39.920
of snap by undying profit all the heroes scream. Let me go try and make a move. Let's try and play

02:21:39.920 --> 02:21:44.480
together. So I am looking at Yandex to be more decisive on the map to try and threaten spirits

02:21:44.480 --> 02:21:48.720
timings. The spirit show when they're online, we favor their draft. It looks cohesive. It looks

02:21:48.720 --> 02:21:52.880
like it's meant to win games. But the Yandex, they have a better window this time to punish.

02:21:52.880 --> 02:21:57.120
Chiro Junior, he has to step up. He cannot choke after the laning phase where he's dumps

02:21:57.120 --> 02:22:01.680
to laugh. Like he needs to be, you know, a consistent threat the entire game. Yeah,

02:22:01.680 --> 02:22:05.440
Yeah, this is definitely going to be a much, much more closer game compared to game one.

02:22:05.440 --> 02:22:08.840
And I think the focus is once again going to be a lot on the mid lane.

02:22:08.840 --> 02:22:12.880
A lot of focus on the mid lane and maybe as the game progresses, a lot of focus on the

02:22:12.880 --> 02:22:14.880
carry versus carry matchup.

02:22:14.880 --> 02:22:18.960
The Shadowfiend versus the Nature Prophet 2 heroes that we've seen so many times on

02:22:18.960 --> 02:22:24.840
the main stage with various degrees of success, but mostly quite successful in a lot of

02:22:24.840 --> 02:22:28.200
capable hands like they are here as well.

02:22:28.200 --> 02:22:34.200
Before we head into game number two, let's find out how Koška-Poška is doing.

02:22:34.200 --> 02:22:35.200
Thank you so much, Ivor.

02:22:35.200 --> 02:22:40.920
Yes, I am here with Mapoška, one game away from the Grand Finals.

02:22:40.920 --> 02:22:43.360
You've been here before in different ways.

02:22:43.360 --> 02:22:46.200
You've come back to get these boys here again.

02:22:46.200 --> 02:22:49.600
We talk a little bit about how you're feeling before you're there.

02:22:49.600 --> 02:22:56.840
I'm feeling great, and I'm really happy that we improved very fast and won three

02:22:56.840 --> 02:23:06.520
tournament because they are masters. It didn't go well, but at that tournament I feel confident

02:23:06.520 --> 02:23:15.320
like we lost our map on the team vision. And also in the world of the game, I don't

02:23:15.320 --> 02:23:19.680
know, I think they all grew up much better because they kept zero stunts, because the

02:23:19.680 --> 02:23:24.560
team kept attacking the mood. I don't know what they could do.

02:23:24.560 --> 02:23:27.360
Well, it's up to the boys now, you know, you've done all that you can.

02:23:27.360 --> 02:23:29.680
Pretty great draft though, I have to say.

02:23:29.680 --> 02:23:33.360
You've got Yathro on that set, you've got Collapse on the Centaur.

02:23:33.360 --> 02:23:35.040
You've got so many great heroes.

02:23:35.040 --> 02:23:36.160
Are you happy with it?

02:23:36.160 --> 02:23:39.200
Will we be finishing this off with this game?

02:23:42.320 --> 02:23:44.640
Totally happy! It's over? 2-0?

02:23:44.640 --> 02:23:45.440
Yeah, sure.

02:23:45.440 --> 02:23:46.320
That's my man!

02:23:46.320 --> 02:23:47.280
All right, fantastic.

02:23:47.280 --> 02:23:48.480
What an honor, what a pleasure.

02:23:48.480 --> 02:23:50.880
We'll see if you can get some revenge on Vision soon,

02:23:50.880 --> 02:23:53.280
or if you have a little more battles to do here.

02:23:53.280 --> 02:23:55.780
Let's go to our caster's trick and miracle.

02:23:58.020 --> 02:24:00.620
Thank you so much, Slacks.

02:24:00.620 --> 02:24:02.460
A lot of confidence.

02:24:02.460 --> 02:24:05.300
They have no stuns. I don't know what they can do.

02:24:05.300 --> 02:24:06.960
Yes, we're gonna finish it off.

02:24:06.960 --> 02:24:09.100
He's already talking about Team Vision

02:24:09.100 --> 02:24:11.140
in the freaking interview for Game 2.

02:24:11.140 --> 02:24:13.300
Sounds exactly like the green room.

02:24:13.300 --> 02:24:15.840
I don't know what they could... There's no stuns!

02:24:15.840 --> 02:24:17.940
You know, Ted's down there, he's counting stuns.

02:24:17.940 --> 02:24:19.040
What are they gonna do?

02:24:19.040 --> 02:24:20.240
There's no way to play the game.

02:24:20.240 --> 02:24:22.180
And I mean, if Poposka says it...

02:24:22.180 --> 02:24:27.080
Well, if the lanes go well, it could start looking pretty okay for them.

02:24:27.080 --> 02:24:31.180
The floor down bottom takes a lot of damage before being able to walk a little.

02:24:31.180 --> 02:24:36.180
But yeah, I mean, it's pretty clear there's not all that much control,

02:24:36.180 --> 02:24:42.180
and when that Centaur came out, it's pretty clear that they're just going to be running away from trouble,

02:24:42.180 --> 02:24:44.680
and then people will dish them out themselves.

02:24:44.680 --> 02:24:46.980
I mean, he talks constantly, they play constantly.

02:24:46.980 --> 02:24:50.380
We'll see who is right and who is wrong this time.

02:24:50.380 --> 02:24:57.100
They do return here with the much coveted nature's profit, but they're gonna keep it in the core role this time

02:24:57.100 --> 02:25:00.980
So not swapping it over to the support and then they're bringing back the snap

02:25:01.220 --> 02:25:05.440
The hero who seemingly cannot be killed no matter how much it is

02:25:13.180 --> 02:25:15.540
He knows what to do he knows he knows the game

02:25:15.540 --> 02:25:17.540
I mean, that's the thing, right?

02:25:17.540 --> 02:25:19.540
This team spirit roster at TI,

02:25:19.540 --> 02:25:22.540
they're always doing something to try and high-fuck the crowd.

02:25:22.540 --> 02:25:24.540
Yep, some capacity.

02:25:24.540 --> 02:25:28.540
And it's not an insignificant part of it.

02:25:28.540 --> 02:25:32.540
The momentum that you can build both when you're walking into the stadium

02:25:32.540 --> 02:25:35.540
and then when you're walking out of those booths, victorious.

02:25:35.540 --> 02:25:37.540
See if they can make it happen here, though.

02:25:37.540 --> 02:25:41.540
And the other thing that we're going to need to watch for is, like, of course,

02:25:41.540 --> 02:25:44.540
how much of these supports are going to be up to the Vietnam.

02:25:44.540 --> 02:25:53.420
Yeah, he was unbelievable on his clockwork last night. He hit a centaur with four cogs.

02:25:53.420 --> 02:25:58.540
I didn't know that was possible in the late game when they were dominating so hard this

02:25:58.540 --> 02:26:01.860
time. So he is very much ready to play on this clockwork, but they have the magic of

02:26:01.860 --> 02:26:06.020
him dying into the centaur. Yeah, this is a good start to it right there. The cogs

02:26:06.020 --> 02:26:10.020
trying to keep him alive and actually burns enough so he can't get another decay off.

02:26:10.020 --> 02:26:16.140
It's allowed him not able to get that kill on the collapse, but this like little move

02:26:16.140 --> 02:26:20.220
where you're playing in between the tier one and the tier two tower, it's really hard

02:26:20.220 --> 02:26:21.220
to contend with.

02:26:21.220 --> 02:26:24.300
We saw this a little bit in the group stage, where our teams were willing to take the

02:26:24.300 --> 02:26:26.420
undying and just dive right past like this.

02:26:26.420 --> 02:26:29.340
He's trying to dive entire waves of farm collapse, trying to figure out what to do,

02:26:29.340 --> 02:26:30.340
right?

02:26:30.340 --> 02:26:31.340
He's got the treants on him.

02:26:31.340 --> 02:26:32.340
The treants are just dying here.

02:26:32.340 --> 02:26:35.340
Gotta get back at least an XP range.

02:26:35.340 --> 02:26:37.420
And they will manage to do just that.

02:26:37.420 --> 02:26:40.860
That little start is gonna mean that this collapsed centaur

02:26:40.860 --> 02:26:44.620
not having as nice of a time as the Cogs get spammed out a little bit.

02:26:45.660 --> 02:26:47.580
We'll be able to off this one off again.

02:26:47.580 --> 02:26:49.660
But it's pretty valuable, like the Manneberg,

02:26:49.660 --> 02:26:52.540
because that would have been a kill most likely onto the centaur

02:26:52.540 --> 02:26:55.340
with all those zombies chasing him in the decay coming out.

02:26:55.340 --> 02:26:57.660
I want to talk a little bit more about this snapfire here

02:26:57.660 --> 02:26:58.460
that you're talking about,

02:26:58.460 --> 02:27:02.380
because obviously very strong teamfight-oriented stuff.

02:27:02.380 --> 02:27:04.780
You can do a ton of damage, a lane down here,

02:27:04.780 --> 02:27:08.780
but also has received sometimes a late game transition to the right lane.

02:27:09.660 --> 02:27:13.820
Yeah, that has been a serious issue hanging into the late game, and I mean just in game number one too,

02:27:13.820 --> 02:27:18.220
obviously it didn't go too well for Tier XI and the mid and late game, but early things looked promising.

02:27:18.220 --> 02:27:21.260
For his Ember, and already off to another good start here.

02:27:21.260 --> 02:27:25.420
Laral though, I mean he knows. If he gets off to a bad start, he's got some teammates to help him out.

02:27:25.420 --> 02:27:28.620
Last time it was the untoward with the Agnus after, this time it was Shampoo.

02:27:29.580 --> 02:27:34.140
They have ways to enable this minigame every game, even if he gets off to a rough start.

02:27:34.780 --> 02:27:41.820
definitely going to be nice to open for them, because Centaur likely to be a little bit underpawed,

02:27:41.820 --> 02:27:46.460
although that said, he's 16 and 1, so it's not completely demolishing by any stretch.

02:27:47.340 --> 02:27:50.860
But the other thing that we're going to want to watch for is like how much can they pressure

02:27:50.860 --> 02:27:55.820
the shadow theme down bottom with Doom Shadow Demon Lane a little bit strange as Laurel's

02:27:55.820 --> 02:27:59.740
will get back home. Yeah, she's fighting up against one of the most powerful supports

02:27:59.740 --> 02:28:03.820
in the past right now of the hood length as well, so very hard to pressure her,

02:28:03.820 --> 02:28:05.720
And, I mean, my question's the Doom.

02:28:05.720 --> 02:28:07.720
I mean, what are you getting out of the Doom, this game?

02:28:07.720 --> 02:28:10.120
You're not expected to really win your lane, you know?

02:28:10.120 --> 02:28:12.820
You tend to get itemization on an easier path

02:28:12.820 --> 02:28:14.320
because of your ability to get the shard

02:28:14.320 --> 02:28:16.420
or sometimes even the Midas, some players,

02:28:16.420 --> 02:28:18.220
let's pray not at this point.

02:28:18.220 --> 02:28:20.520
But how valuable is Doom, this game?

02:28:20.520 --> 02:28:23.320
What are the chances you get Doom off before the roll?

02:28:23.320 --> 02:28:25.120
What happens when you Doom a Shadowfist?

02:28:25.120 --> 02:28:26.720
You know, how often are you going to be dooming a Centaur

02:28:26.720 --> 02:28:28.920
when he still has spells to use?

02:28:28.920 --> 02:28:31.520
I mean, I think getting into like the big part

02:28:31.520 --> 02:28:34.640
and scaling Centaur. That's where the Doom seems to have a little bit of value, right?

02:28:34.640 --> 02:28:36.720
Like, Domingo actually feels like he's done something.

02:28:36.720 --> 02:28:38.920
But I worry that his impact might be very minimal.

02:28:40.680 --> 02:28:44.280
The CP rotation is also going down bottom.

02:28:44.280 --> 02:28:46.560
Try to find Toro, and do get him.

02:28:46.560 --> 02:28:48.640
It's a terrible close collider.

02:28:48.640 --> 02:28:52.960
He's got destruction play, and the rotation in from Watson.

02:28:52.960 --> 02:28:55.200
This is what I want to see from the Doom, right?

02:28:55.200 --> 02:28:56.680
I want to see a little bit of early aggression.

02:28:56.680 --> 02:28:59.000
I want to see the rotations in from the Nature's Prophet.

02:28:59.000 --> 02:29:01.120
Scorster is a very good spell.

02:29:01.120 --> 02:29:05.640
So, being able to amplify that with a little bit of pressure from your core's global TP,

02:29:05.640 --> 02:29:10.780
an excellent way to get him involved in the game, as the molding continues on to Laurel.

02:29:10.780 --> 02:29:16.680
He has managed to crack into the double digits of last set, it's now 14, but that is 33 for Chirijuna.

02:29:16.680 --> 02:29:20.760
And he realized that he was going to die there, he's just going to be brought down.

02:29:20.760 --> 02:29:21.760
Yeah!

02:29:21.760 --> 02:29:25.980
So, it's definitely been bully Laurel o'clock.

02:29:25.980 --> 02:29:34.580
Uh, paintball, he's trapped out of there a bit, and as they leave on Naughty, now some pressure on the collapse, they can back end, but they are dying.

02:29:35.780 --> 02:29:39.380
And he is just be bullied by these cogs, and out.

02:29:39.380 --> 02:29:44.380
It's interesting to see what the cost was, the reason DM dies down there is because Sokso went and he took the bounty.

02:29:44.580 --> 02:29:49.180
So he took that away from Laurel, he couldn't get his bottle, he's now just getting back to the well.

02:29:49.380 --> 02:29:51.380
Sapphire's in the bottom lane right now in level 6.

02:29:51.980 --> 02:29:52.580
Oh wow.

02:29:52.580 --> 02:29:55.280
Like, hey, really want this play?

02:29:55.280 --> 02:29:57.880
Yadarov, he has no, oh yeah, he has the playing blade in there,

02:29:57.880 --> 02:30:01.520
and you're right, he's good, okay, so no free plays.

02:30:01.520 --> 02:30:04.120
But this doesn't feel good either, like dodging this gank

02:30:04.120 --> 02:30:06.560
does not mean this is a win between Spirit.

02:30:06.560 --> 02:30:08.560
Like, your Shadowfiend is juggling now.

02:30:08.560 --> 02:30:11.760
Oh, and look, Chiro believes he's down bottom.

02:30:11.760 --> 02:30:13.360
We got a disagreement here, maybe.

02:30:13.360 --> 02:30:15.000
Where is he's at?

02:30:15.000 --> 02:30:16.160
Yep.

02:30:16.160 --> 02:30:18.900
All right, so it's a win and a loss at the same time,

02:30:18.900 --> 02:30:21.840
as you said, you don't die, but I mean, think about it, snap.

02:30:21.840 --> 02:30:26.160
She's gonna farm tips on these jungle camps. She's also missing out and a bit of recovery here for Laurel

02:30:26.160 --> 02:30:30.420
They give the space to Malady on the undying so he gets quite a bit of a bonus here

02:30:30.420 --> 02:30:34.280
He's gonna brace her down actually and actually gonna connect that way too

02:30:44.800 --> 02:30:49.040
Wait a minute this good work. I think there are the spells though. They don't have enough

02:30:49.040 --> 02:30:54.040
The pure junior survived that game.

02:30:54.040 --> 02:31:00.040
A very mobile early start between the mid and his bottom lane.

02:31:00.040 --> 02:31:05.040
A lot of heroes rotating around trying to get Laurel into a better position.

02:31:05.040 --> 02:31:10.040
So far it's been basically the Snapfire and P-Dominator.

02:31:10.040 --> 02:31:12.040
And not many moved in.

02:31:12.040 --> 02:31:18.040
Lotsen not able to get in there and deny trying to wisdom.

02:31:18.040 --> 02:31:39.040
Because of the out removering performed here by Team Spirit though, I gotta say, you know, they get the kill on the Malady, they'll instantly respawn, but gives a nice bounty over to Laryl, Yadro dodged all of that, granted from the Snapfire, wasted an opportunity, I mean you could have been like farming stacks or obviously maybe getting a more secure kill somewhere else, rather than trying to chase him.

02:31:39.040 --> 02:31:42.040
This Shadow Fiend here is done, and Y'all are still very hard at the moment.

02:31:42.040 --> 02:31:47.040
This proves all two stones down, they're gonna get chased, they bring in Watson,

02:31:47.040 --> 02:31:51.040
and the Shadow Fiend in a lot of trouble is just being hounded here by these trants.

02:31:51.040 --> 02:31:55.040
So go for the Stampede, this was the escape, they got level 6 on the Centaur,

02:31:55.040 --> 02:31:57.040
and that's enough to get him away.

02:31:57.040 --> 02:32:01.040
This time they don't have the Snapfire, there's no kisses, you're just shy of the level 6,

02:32:01.040 --> 02:32:03.040
he just got an Elnator's Pond.

02:32:03.040 --> 02:32:05.040
If that's there, they get that kill.

02:32:05.040 --> 02:32:15.480
No, he is still waiting, dicing his way back to the base, so not feeling too spectacular

02:32:15.480 --> 02:32:16.480
about his game.

02:32:16.480 --> 02:32:18.800
But it's not as bad as it could have been.

02:32:18.800 --> 02:32:23.840
And the Andex taking advantage of the opportunity is dead.

02:32:23.840 --> 02:32:24.840
Hotney!

02:32:24.840 --> 02:32:28.680
Okay, if they kill him, it's gonna feel so good.

02:32:28.680 --> 02:32:30.560
They chase down by the clockwork.

02:32:30.560 --> 02:32:36.720
because you get the deny not quite the um takes down that s block work is collapsed

02:32:36.720 --> 02:32:43.200
heats his way through the trees once in listen there's just when you tipi away when you walk away

02:32:43.200 --> 02:32:48.560
this is where stuns would be helpful that'd be very nice stuns are pretty good in dota but

02:32:48.560 --> 02:32:52.080
you know they've still stunned yonder he tipis to the mid tier two to start farming the

02:32:52.720 --> 02:32:59.920
but viral oh my dm try to walk out of there he's got to roll back the other direction

02:32:59.920 --> 02:33:01.920
and then dooms the hoodwink.

02:33:01.920 --> 02:33:02.920
Is that enough?

02:33:02.920 --> 02:33:03.920
Oh, they do get it!

02:33:03.920 --> 02:33:06.920
With a wrath of nature, it's going to be enough damage there

02:33:06.920 --> 02:33:10.920
to eventually whittle down that squirrel.

02:33:10.920 --> 02:33:13.920
A little bit of retribution from the grave.

02:33:13.920 --> 02:33:14.920
Here it shows up again here.

02:33:14.920 --> 02:33:16.920
You can't link anything.

02:33:16.920 --> 02:33:18.920
It just ends up taking a mid-player attack

02:33:18.920 --> 02:33:20.920
to farm in the camps once more.

02:33:20.920 --> 02:33:22.920
What? Your mid-snap fire did not have cast kisses.

02:33:22.920 --> 02:33:23.920
Oh, wait.

02:33:23.920 --> 02:33:25.920
They keep the disruption.

02:33:25.920 --> 02:33:27.920
They've got to get close enough to open them up,

02:33:27.920 --> 02:33:28.920
but it's not going to happen.

02:33:28.920 --> 02:33:32.080
happen you know what that was a very small window to stampede just came back up

02:33:32.080 --> 02:33:35.080
so now if you try to make that same play yeah don't think you're gonna have the

02:33:35.080 --> 02:33:37.200
damage

02:33:37.200 --> 02:33:42.340
is finding camps along the way at the very least but it's not what he's

02:33:42.340 --> 02:33:49.000
hoping it's important understanding when you're strong and when and look

02:33:49.000 --> 02:33:51.960
like let's go with the M2. Oh no they got them they're right there

02:33:51.960 --> 02:33:58.040
sure junior found Toro finds that kill Sokka also in trouble team spirit

02:33:58.040 --> 02:34:00.760
They are running circles around the index right now.

02:34:00.760 --> 02:34:04.600
They want desperately to take a fight that is good for Snapfire,

02:34:04.600 --> 02:34:06.040
and they're not giving it to him.

02:34:06.040 --> 02:34:07.480
And do you know what DM was doing that whole time?

02:34:07.480 --> 02:34:08.920
He was denying creeps.

02:34:08.920 --> 02:34:10.600
So he was holding this wave back.

02:34:10.600 --> 02:34:13.000
He wasn't letting the wave crash into the tower or anything here

02:34:13.000 --> 02:34:14.120
and trying to force this down.

02:34:14.120 --> 02:34:15.640
They're kind of trying to stall it out here

02:34:15.640 --> 02:34:18.840
because of the control that they were feeling past that tier one.

02:34:18.840 --> 02:34:20.040
But then your stamp just dies,

02:34:20.040 --> 02:34:21.000
and it's kind of like,

02:34:21.000 --> 02:34:22.680
should I just be pressuring this tower this whole time?

02:34:22.680 --> 02:34:23.960
I'm never going to find malady.

02:34:23.960 --> 02:34:25.240
Underneath the tree.

02:34:25.240 --> 02:34:26.360
Is there any retribution?

02:34:26.360 --> 02:34:30.040
They drop the Tombstone, GM, and they can't do anything!

02:34:30.040 --> 02:34:33.160
Just more gold for the Shadow Fiend.

02:34:33.160 --> 02:34:35.240
I mean, you can sense it right now.

02:34:36.120 --> 02:34:40.040
Yandex, they want to make a play, but there is no play to make.

02:34:41.000 --> 02:34:42.360
Watson feels like he can't even get in.

02:34:43.160 --> 02:34:45.080
And he thought of it teleporting in, but at the same time,

02:34:45.080 --> 02:34:47.560
there was also a bit of a battle going on between the Snap,

02:34:47.560 --> 02:34:48.760
as well as the Pangolier.

02:34:48.760 --> 02:34:52.920
So, he's just a little bit too pregnant right now,

02:34:52.920 --> 02:34:53.880
further side of Yandex.

02:34:53.880 --> 02:34:54.840
They've got to figure something out too,

02:34:54.840 --> 02:34:57.940
Because he's there not taking their foot off the gas. Yadar is coming through that twin gate.

02:34:57.940 --> 02:34:59.940
He wants to get in behind Watson right now.

02:35:00.740 --> 02:35:02.940
Stampede not available though, so it will be a tougher catch.

02:35:03.740 --> 02:35:04.740
They're bringing in Rue.

02:35:04.740 --> 02:35:08.040
Oh, is he gonna walk right into the reed, slayer gentleman? Like out book.

02:35:08.040 --> 02:35:10.540
Yep, tries to get out, not gonna happen.

02:35:11.740 --> 02:35:16.040
Walks through the gate, gets to the kill. Laurel now diving in towards mid.

02:35:17.640 --> 02:35:21.340
Making sure that there couldn't be any TP's to help the top.

02:35:21.340 --> 02:35:30.620
I mean, spirit, dotting their eyes, crossing their T's, and Yandex, who is going to be the

02:35:30.620 --> 02:35:33.660
one that can step off and turn the fortunes a little?

02:35:33.660 --> 02:35:36.220
I mean, it's going to be in the game, it's going to be out of the game, someone's going

02:35:36.220 --> 02:35:37.700
to be having a talk right now.

02:35:37.700 --> 02:35:43.180
We got to calm down, we got to think, we got to realize what do our heroes do.

02:35:43.180 --> 02:35:44.180
Right?

02:35:44.180 --> 02:35:45.940
What gives us strength in this game?

02:35:45.940 --> 02:35:46.940
We got nothing.

02:35:46.940 --> 02:35:47.940
We got the kisses.

02:35:47.940 --> 02:35:49.700
We got to find a way to use this spell, man.

02:35:49.700 --> 02:35:50.700
Yep.

02:35:50.700 --> 02:35:55.100
Broken hero. What's her damage right now? I don't think it's gonna be very high

02:35:55.580 --> 02:36:01.200
They are struggling to get in there. So he's going straight into this blink tagger only the shard after that you would imagine

02:36:02.540 --> 02:36:06.740
They need this to connect desperately right now. It's got to happen

02:36:07.860 --> 02:36:11.860
And from team spirit, I think a really good recognition of

02:36:12.460 --> 02:36:17.540
What it is that allows the yandex draft to function and then not allowing that to happen

02:36:17.540 --> 02:36:20.580
Soxa has not really been able to disrupt someone.

02:36:20.580 --> 02:36:24.620
Okay, Rue is level 8 right now, not me just at level 5.

02:36:24.620 --> 02:36:25.620
Yeah.

02:36:25.620 --> 02:36:27.700
He has been just hogging his way around this game.

02:36:27.700 --> 02:36:29.700
He has no cares for the Hoaxon.

02:36:29.700 --> 02:36:33.260
He has just been an absolute menace.

02:36:33.260 --> 02:36:35.900
And Rue is huge!

02:36:35.900 --> 02:36:39.660
Good hero to have off to a good start.

02:36:39.660 --> 02:36:42.700
Alright, Blink Dagger, Chira Jr.

02:36:42.700 --> 02:36:47.460
Hook up now, Laurel, waiting on the high ground, anticipating this potentially.

02:36:47.460 --> 02:36:49.780
The Sanctita again, the hosta talked about it.

02:36:49.780 --> 02:36:50.780
No.

02:36:50.780 --> 02:36:51.780
Kira Jr.

02:36:51.780 --> 02:36:52.780
Stunning who here?

02:36:52.780 --> 02:36:53.780
Oh, breaks.

02:36:53.780 --> 02:36:54.780
Find them!

02:36:54.780 --> 02:36:55.780
Nicely done there.

02:36:55.780 --> 02:36:56.780
A good connection.

02:36:56.780 --> 02:37:00.780
It's pushed down to the low ground and a good disruption by Sox that keeps him alive.

02:37:00.780 --> 02:37:05.620
Now the Requiem of Souls out, still living, and Kira Jr. threw this.

02:37:05.620 --> 02:37:06.620
They dropped the June down onto the Sanctita.

02:37:06.620 --> 02:37:07.620
All right, let them fly.

02:37:07.620 --> 02:37:08.620
Okay, the Sanctita's there.

02:37:08.620 --> 02:37:09.620
Finding Laurel.

02:37:09.620 --> 02:37:11.620
They have enough to kill him off.

02:37:11.620 --> 02:37:15.300
They finally came back with a Kisses, a double for Chara Jr.

02:37:15.300 --> 02:37:17.180
It wasn't pretty, but it's what they need.

02:37:17.180 --> 02:37:19.660
As they managed to pick up the center on the side there,

02:37:19.660 --> 02:37:21.820
they killed the streak on Laryl.

02:37:21.820 --> 02:37:25.460
That, finally, is what they have been trying to do for a while.

02:37:25.460 --> 02:37:26.500
The blink dagger enabling things.

02:37:26.500 --> 02:37:28.300
Imagine if that pushback had a connected rail.

02:37:28.300 --> 02:37:29.020
Oh yeah.

02:37:29.020 --> 02:37:32.180
I mean, this game could truly be over mentally.

02:37:32.180 --> 02:37:34.780
From the side of the index, head back on sideways.

02:37:36.700 --> 02:37:39.820
Addling back here, it's going to send Yadaro back into the jungle.

02:37:39.820 --> 02:37:45.020
The action is on the side, continuing to grow though, still stays on the top of the board, but those next three heroes, they are all Yandex.

02:37:45.020 --> 02:37:53.020
They are successfully finding a lot of gold right now, and you know, continuing to keep this tower alive though, as they catch a quick burst on the socks.

02:37:53.020 --> 02:38:03.020
The oxygen is way too far forward there, gets punished through, didn't have a bush whack back up anyway, so it's going to be movement through the gate, as they look like they're going to pressure.

02:38:03.020 --> 02:38:07.420
They have a little circle on the map there from Yadro, and yeah, he is correct, there's some serious gold in there.

02:38:07.420 --> 02:38:11.660
There's a dire observer ward keeping it safe, so they will have an idea if the movement comes in

02:38:12.220 --> 02:38:15.660
Not me with that hookshot though. He's certainly ready to start flying on the other side of the map

02:38:16.700 --> 02:38:19.660
Yeah, and Laurel comes in. He sees it. He's like, oh, this is a good idea y'all. Thanks, man

02:38:20.380 --> 02:38:24.380
Now they have vision here. So if they try and will go for the full commit

02:38:24.700 --> 02:38:27.580
Okay, spirit. It's a scary one, but there's a haste room

02:38:28.300 --> 02:38:29.340
game

02:38:29.340 --> 02:38:30.140
hunting

02:38:30.140 --> 02:38:34.380
Jared jr. Gets the sun right out of the gate with the bush like the furries gone

02:38:34.380 --> 02:38:39.980
Didn't stand a chance! That's a big hero! Hookshot's out is not me!

02:38:39.980 --> 02:38:44.080
I don't really understand the math on that one there, but I'm not gonna lie to you.

02:38:44.080 --> 02:38:46.380
I mean, it was the clogs mess up again, I think.

02:38:46.380 --> 02:38:50.680
Yes, but I mean, there's no kisses in that fight, there's no doom in that fight.

02:38:50.680 --> 02:38:55.680
I think that the idea of defending it is good, but the idea of chasing into it,

02:38:55.680 --> 02:38:59.680
it feels like... I don't blame them, they feel like they have to force something,

02:38:59.680 --> 02:39:02.680
but that's exactly the kind of play it seems fair to us, hoping you're gonna make.

02:39:02.680 --> 02:39:06.220
They did manage to clean up the ancients at the very least.

02:39:06.220 --> 02:39:10.160
So that holds not going into Clean Spirit's coffers.

02:39:10.160 --> 02:39:16.120
And up top, Flaps immediately starts dragging waves of his creep forcing Watson to come back

02:39:16.120 --> 02:39:17.120
up here and push it off.

02:39:17.120 --> 02:39:21.760
At the very least, they have the problem to do this as they catch DM in front of a run.

02:39:21.760 --> 02:39:27.240
It's pretty quick on this one, but with Pushwack back up in a couple, they're not going

02:39:27.240 --> 02:39:28.240
to chase him.

02:39:28.240 --> 02:39:35.860
gets away and into the shard for himself well and you know this is Dota at the

02:39:35.860 --> 02:39:43.480
end of the day you can buy disables shot there lands another round another

02:39:43.480 --> 02:39:49.840
round another round he's just beat the death no more man of the calls the

02:39:49.840 --> 02:39:54.080
fusel blade they do trade for class use the weak lumps back the way there's

02:39:54.080 --> 02:39:58.240
Well, it's kind of bait him in, you know, and while wrapping in behind, but it's not

02:39:58.240 --> 02:40:00.800
easy to survive. Even with that nice play, they're stoned out,

02:40:01.920 --> 02:40:07.120
taking away, but not me. And guess what? No stun speeds, no problem. They're out of there.

02:40:07.920 --> 02:40:12.720
Carl, he's down. He's not superior, but he's here at Miner's Socks and Maldives.

02:40:12.720 --> 02:40:15.920
They don't have any connections they can make on those rollbacks, but yes.

02:40:17.040 --> 02:40:19.120
Bringing the wave with them. Very nice.

02:40:19.120 --> 02:40:28.120
So it's still a thousand gold lead for Yandex and there is tremendous teamfight potential.

02:40:28.120 --> 02:40:34.120
As Jere Jr. walks in, this is on the stun and now, not me, it's right there, he's got

02:40:34.120 --> 02:40:35.120
him caught in the cogs.

02:40:35.120 --> 02:40:40.120
Coral finishes that one up, was not counting on the Shadow Beam so close at hand.

02:40:40.120 --> 02:40:41.120
They don't have everything ready.

02:40:41.120 --> 02:40:44.120
You're coming in and trying to pressure into this area of the map without the tombstone,

02:40:44.120 --> 02:40:45.120
you know?

02:40:45.120 --> 02:40:50.120
So, you can't lock down this area. It feels like they're trying to emulate what they saw from Team Spirit, and they're not hitting it.

02:40:52.120 --> 02:40:58.120
All it took was a mask of madness out, and a very, very dead Shadow Team.

02:41:00.120 --> 02:41:07.120
Yadro is unpressured in these engagements. He is just standing there, he is just passing any spell he wishes, and right with the means of death.

02:41:09.120 --> 02:41:11.120
Impressive performance so far.

02:41:11.120 --> 02:41:19.440
So far, level 13 on the Shadow Theme, basically even with the nature's profit in terms of farm.

02:41:19.440 --> 02:41:24.760
But Cheer Trainer, after a good start, has started to fall down that leaderboard now because

02:41:24.760 --> 02:41:26.400
of the failed gank attempts.

02:41:26.400 --> 02:41:28.160
It's just like last game.

02:41:28.160 --> 02:41:29.160
It's the exact same story.

02:41:29.160 --> 02:41:33.120
It has a solid start in the lane, but they fail to make their connections together.

02:41:33.120 --> 02:41:36.040
They don't hit the necessary timings they need with their items.

02:41:36.040 --> 02:41:37.600
And then he's also missing his combos.

02:41:37.600 --> 02:41:39.560
You know, he missed some slight chains last game.

02:41:39.560 --> 02:41:41.800
Missing the follow-up cookie after the vanish.

02:41:41.800 --> 02:41:43.760
I mean, this is the kind of stuff that you're not going to see

02:41:43.760 --> 02:41:46.160
when you're playing a nice comfortable tournament from your room.

02:41:46.160 --> 02:41:48.360
Maybe even from the hotel room, you know?

02:41:48.360 --> 02:41:51.360
This is the gap that occurs upon the main stage

02:41:51.360 --> 02:41:53.860
on the last day of the International 15.

02:41:54.960 --> 02:41:56.560
Let's see if they can turn it around here.

02:41:56.560 --> 02:41:59.160
Team Spirit, they've been very strong.

02:41:59.160 --> 02:42:00.560
Toro, right in the middle.

02:42:00.560 --> 02:42:02.760
They were waiting with Laura, who has his blink dagger done.

02:42:02.760 --> 02:42:05.060
It's also a blink dagger done on Doom.

02:42:05.060 --> 02:42:06.560
There's a little one dying here.

02:42:06.560 --> 02:42:08.160
They're ready to go.

02:42:08.160 --> 02:42:11.160
Now Bruce shows himself for a moment stampede.

02:42:11.160 --> 02:42:14.160
Haha, the Cogs. Get back!

02:42:14.160 --> 02:42:17.160
Stampede a little funky.

02:42:17.160 --> 02:42:21.160
Maybe it opens up an opportunity here. I mean they haven't even seen him on Chira.

02:42:21.160 --> 02:42:26.160
Maybe he feels like at the end of this they could try and go in with it.

02:42:26.160 --> 02:42:31.160
Always a risky one, but they definitely need something a little bit edgy right now.

02:42:32.160 --> 02:42:35.160
All the illusions did a good chunk of damage to that tower.

02:42:35.160 --> 02:42:37.200
going to send in the Warpine Raider.

02:42:37.200 --> 02:42:40.360
Do they realize that this guy's taking the Tower of Maladies?

02:42:40.360 --> 02:42:41.160
Go for the Denied.

02:42:41.160 --> 02:42:41.960
They're waiting for it.

02:42:41.960 --> 02:42:42.760
They're battling.

02:42:42.760 --> 02:42:44.760
Oh, he goes in and collapse takes it.

02:42:44.760 --> 02:42:46.160
It's too strong.

02:42:46.160 --> 02:42:47.360
That's crazy.

02:42:47.360 --> 02:42:49.460
I mean, it's unbelievable that you've just had five heroes

02:42:49.460 --> 02:42:51.160
sitting here trying to set up a play on this.

02:42:51.160 --> 02:42:51.660
Yeah.

02:42:51.660 --> 02:42:53.660
You can't get your play, and the Tower just falls for free,

02:42:53.660 --> 02:42:54.160
too.

02:42:54.160 --> 02:42:55.760
Like, it feels really bad.

02:42:55.760 --> 02:42:58.960
This movement now, Laurel, is rolling around down bottom.

02:42:58.960 --> 02:43:00.560
Binds DM.

02:43:00.560 --> 02:43:01.860
DM thought about the Doom.

02:43:01.860 --> 02:43:03.360
It's not going to quite happen,

02:43:03.360 --> 02:43:06.600
But he does finally get it off on the pango!

02:43:06.600 --> 02:43:07.700
Thanks for being a good trade.

02:43:07.700 --> 02:43:12.740
Okay, Tombstone down, and yeah, with the poison stacked up, it's gonna be enough.

02:43:12.740 --> 02:43:13.920
A hundred and two?

02:43:13.920 --> 02:43:16.920
No, not me. He goes down to Chira Junior.

02:43:16.920 --> 02:43:21.880
So Gindex, they find their targets. We're barely getting out of that one.

02:43:22.960 --> 02:43:24.460
13 to 10.

02:43:25.080 --> 02:43:26.680
And nearly gets a third one.

02:43:26.680 --> 02:43:36.680
Oh, just loads for the Requiem, wants it, backs away, tries to back it up, it's a solo kill!

02:43:36.680 --> 02:43:41.560
Oh, they call him the new king, it's happening.

02:43:41.560 --> 02:43:43.560
The demon is unleashed.

02:43:43.560 --> 02:43:46.560
That's unbelievable man.

02:43:46.560 --> 02:43:50.560
What can you do, you know?

02:43:50.560 --> 02:43:54.080
Sometimes the auto is just gonna piece on you.

02:43:54.080 --> 02:43:56.080
is a back raker.

02:43:57.760 --> 02:43:59.760
Sierra now being found by not me.

02:43:59.760 --> 02:44:00.960
He might have his vengeance here.

02:44:00.960 --> 02:44:02.320
Essence is still here to track him.

02:44:02.320 --> 02:44:03.760
Who do we come into?

02:44:03.760 --> 02:44:05.760
It's a hazardous support duo.

02:44:05.760 --> 02:44:07.760
Getting up on the high ground there.

02:44:07.760 --> 02:44:11.600
Trying to get away, but with the hookshot follow-up there.

02:44:11.600 --> 02:44:14.400
Oh, they get the bushwhack.

02:44:14.400 --> 02:44:15.200
And look at this.

02:44:15.200 --> 02:44:18.480
This is going to just be an easy kill right into a tormentor.

02:44:18.480 --> 02:44:20.480
Doesn't even have to stop farming creeps.

02:44:20.480 --> 02:44:22.720
That's so considerate of Sierra Junior, you know?

02:44:22.720 --> 02:44:27.720
Team Spirit, this squad, when they are cooking, you better watch out.

02:44:29.520 --> 02:44:33.220
I feel like they are the most intimidating team in Dota to be losing to.

02:44:33.520 --> 02:44:38.220
Yeah, they just strike this fear in you and they have this confidence

02:44:38.220 --> 02:44:41.720
that it just makes everything that you think about Dota seem wrong.

02:44:45.920 --> 02:44:51.520
Now, DM, having just expended the Doom to kill Laurel,

02:44:51.520 --> 02:44:54.960
Because maybe recognizing the danger coming his way,

02:44:54.960 --> 02:44:58.160
go back out and go back to the base.

02:44:58.160 --> 02:45:01.040
I like his idea here of going for the desiccate.

02:45:01.040 --> 02:45:04.560
You know, reduce that base armor up the shadow theme,

02:45:04.560 --> 02:45:06.880
set it down to 10, maybe it gives them a chance.

02:45:06.880 --> 02:45:09.680
Like they need every little bit of help because

02:45:09.680 --> 02:45:11.520
he's got serious struggle to this game.

02:45:11.520 --> 02:45:13.120
The Croker later will be great as well.

02:45:13.120 --> 02:45:16.400
It's obviously been a big classic with the Doom.

02:45:16.400 --> 02:45:20.400
But they got to find every little advantage

02:45:20.400 --> 02:45:23.240
they can get in this one.

02:45:23.240 --> 02:45:26.840
4,000 boldly now, and very similar to last game.

02:45:26.840 --> 02:45:29.920
Early lanes, go well for the index.

02:45:29.920 --> 02:45:31.280
It starts to break down.

02:45:31.280 --> 02:45:34.040
Team Spirit find avenues to get back into this fight.

02:45:34.040 --> 02:45:36.240
Now, they are going to blink over to the side.

02:45:36.240 --> 02:45:39.040
I think they have an idea that he's over here and collapse.

02:45:39.040 --> 02:45:40.520
This should be a kill.

02:45:40.520 --> 02:45:45.800
They drop the doom, the troll is there, and...

02:45:45.800 --> 02:45:48.280
Honestly, this hard build does give him a lot of value now.

02:45:48.280 --> 02:45:48.760
Yeah.

02:45:48.760 --> 02:45:49.680
They really do.

02:45:49.680 --> 02:45:51.680
He completely shuts down the way you're seeing this center.

02:45:51.680 --> 02:45:54.180
I mean, every fight in the lake he's now there here

02:45:54.180 --> 02:45:56.180
is off the Altea and a Toon Sun.

02:45:56.180 --> 02:45:58.680
Unfortunately, we're supposed to feed him away to Marble.

02:45:58.680 --> 02:46:00.580
When he comes in, tries to find the bush back.

02:46:00.580 --> 02:46:03.680
It's not quite there, but one little hit from the shot

02:46:03.680 --> 02:46:04.680
if he does a lot.

02:46:04.680 --> 02:46:07.280
Now, Watson, Watson doesn't have any prints here either.

02:46:07.280 --> 02:46:08.680
He's gone again.

02:46:08.680 --> 02:46:11.180
Monroe, don't lose for it.

02:46:11.180 --> 02:46:14.180
Reckliam's on top of the TP that was coming in and says,

02:46:14.180 --> 02:46:15.180
yeah, I dare you.

02:46:15.180 --> 02:46:16.380
Now, four-step up the higher.

02:46:16.380 --> 02:46:17.680
Oh, he's feeling himself.

02:46:17.680 --> 02:46:19.180
He's feeling himself now.

02:46:19.180 --> 02:46:23.180
Triple kill, Gatoro!

02:46:23.180 --> 02:46:26.180
He hungers for the grand finals.

02:46:26.180 --> 02:46:28.180
Their smiles on their faces.

02:46:28.180 --> 02:46:30.180
An ultra kill.

02:46:30.180 --> 02:46:32.180
Get on back over here. Come on, come on, come on.

02:46:32.180 --> 02:46:34.180
Get back over here.

02:46:34.180 --> 02:46:36.180
They're chasing. They're standing.

02:46:36.180 --> 02:46:38.180
No, they're not stopping.

02:46:38.180 --> 02:46:39.180
They're never stopping.

02:46:39.180 --> 02:46:40.180
Where's that hook shot now, Pete?

02:46:40.180 --> 02:46:41.180
What do you got for me?

02:46:41.180 --> 02:46:42.180
Can they get through here?

02:46:42.180 --> 02:46:44.180
I'm not quite.

02:46:44.180 --> 02:46:46.180
The crowd wants it too.

02:46:46.180 --> 02:46:48.180
Oh, man.

02:46:48.180 --> 02:46:52.820
Watson getting caught back at that can't happen man. He was so close to having a game

02:46:52.820 --> 02:46:55.260
His BKB was a hundred gold away or less

02:46:55.940 --> 02:47:02.340
Now he's dead. He's all this gold. This is supposed to be an undying dying. Why why is he dying? Yes?

02:47:02.860 --> 02:47:04.340
Why?

02:47:04.340 --> 02:47:09.780
How does this happen? I I mean well just keeps going. He's like hey this guy's just here guys

02:47:09.780 --> 02:47:13.380
And then more show up and then more show up. I mean

02:47:13.380 --> 02:47:16.800
It feels pretty rough.

02:47:16.800 --> 02:47:18.240
You're doing your fount.

02:47:18.240 --> 02:47:19.840
Laurel gets him.

02:47:19.840 --> 02:47:21.540
The wheels have come off.

02:47:21.540 --> 02:47:24.340
It just wasn't that bad at this point.

02:47:24.340 --> 02:47:26.140
They were so close to hitting their timing.

02:47:26.140 --> 02:47:28.000
They were going to have the BKB on the nature's profit.

02:47:28.000 --> 02:47:29.840
Maybe it gives them a chance to stand in these fights.

02:47:29.840 --> 02:47:31.480
There's still a lot of damage from Yadaro.

02:47:31.480 --> 02:47:33.840
I understand that, but it gives you something.

02:47:33.840 --> 02:47:39.880
Now it feels like their hope is just turning into maybe I can TP out when I kill a wave somewhere.

02:47:39.880 --> 02:47:44.800
I mean, that's basically what they're hoping for now.

02:47:44.800 --> 02:47:49.020
They get the BKB completed on Nature's Prophet.

02:47:49.020 --> 02:47:54.240
Kara Junior, dead for a little bit, does have the Kaia up.

02:47:54.240 --> 02:47:56.360
Doom is close to BKB also.

02:47:56.360 --> 02:47:59.560
I still don't know if it's going to be enough at this point, because if they doom

02:47:59.560 --> 02:48:03.760
the Shadowfiend, then you're set to hide away, and if you go, not me, he's just

02:48:03.760 --> 02:48:05.260
ready to chase.

02:48:05.260 --> 02:48:06.260
Yeah.

02:48:06.260 --> 02:48:13.460
Madison Stasler was there. He puts him inside of the tube zone for a moment, but Laurel running back and forth over these guys.

02:48:13.460 --> 02:48:19.460
Gatoro, he hits very hard. He hits very, very hard. Watson BKB. Yeah, nice job, buddy.

02:48:19.460 --> 02:48:28.460
They turn now. Hit on the Valady. That's not going to last long either, as he doesn't quite do the timing right. Laurel finishes that one off.

02:48:28.460 --> 02:48:29.460
Anyone else?

02:48:29.460 --> 02:48:31.460
Got a hide and a blink.

02:48:31.460 --> 02:48:33.460
He's just swaggering and walking around.

02:48:33.460 --> 02:48:35.460
They thought about it.

02:48:35.460 --> 02:48:37.460
Sides not to go.

02:48:37.460 --> 02:48:39.460
Woo, man.

02:48:41.460 --> 02:48:44.460
It's a privilege to be here on the last day.

02:48:44.460 --> 02:48:46.460
It's not a right, you know.

02:48:46.460 --> 02:48:48.460
Yadar, he's seizing the opportunity.

02:48:48.460 --> 02:48:51.460
He wants to grasp that ages just another time.

02:48:51.460 --> 02:48:53.460
Maybe not even just the last time.

02:48:53.460 --> 02:48:55.460
Maybe a couple more times.

02:48:55.460 --> 02:48:57.460
There's no signs slowing down.

02:48:57.460 --> 02:49:01.460
There are signs that there could be a hero up here that's dead.

02:49:01.460 --> 02:49:04.460
Finds the right angle.

02:49:04.460 --> 02:49:06.460
Going through the tr- I mean he's- okay.

02:49:06.460 --> 02:49:08.460
Okay, okay.

02:49:08.460 --> 02:49:11.460
When you know the game is in your hand right now.

02:49:11.460 --> 02:49:13.460
Yeah.

02:49:13.460 --> 02:49:15.460
Zero fear.

02:49:15.460 --> 02:49:18.460
Perhaps more impressively, zero TPs in from the index.

02:49:18.460 --> 02:49:20.460
At least they didn't panic.

02:49:20.460 --> 02:49:22.460
Speaking of panic collapse, right next to two heroes here.

02:49:22.460 --> 02:49:24.460
Comes in, finds him.

02:49:24.460 --> 02:49:28.960
out but now the turn onto the rest of these heroes, Jair Jr. backing away they are

02:49:28.960 --> 02:49:33.860
going to kill off collapse. DM pops the VKV runs away, have team spirit maybe

02:49:33.860 --> 02:49:39.460
overextended a little bit here. We'll see if they can chase this and are there

02:49:39.460 --> 02:49:43.580
but he's right on top of them. Watson throws it into the sprout but there's

02:49:43.580 --> 02:49:48.340
no control, there's no anything. You can only slow him down for a moment as

02:49:48.340 --> 02:49:56.280
As he turns and hits and kills Malady, 19,000 net worth at 25 minutes.

02:49:56.280 --> 02:49:59.060
Chirichunior trying to put the team on his back.

02:49:59.060 --> 02:50:01.760
He does a good amount of damage, but it stops there.

02:50:01.760 --> 02:50:04.400
He is forcing. He did not get flared there.

02:50:04.400 --> 02:50:06.600
That could have been really bad.

02:50:06.600 --> 02:50:10.440
They can't establish a foothold on any terrain of this map.

02:50:10.440 --> 02:50:13.740
Every time they plant a tombstone, that is supposed to be your signal to,

02:50:13.740 --> 02:50:15.580
we win this area.

02:50:15.580 --> 02:50:17.180
Doesn't feel like that at all.

02:50:17.180 --> 02:50:21.720
Yadar is just hurricane piking into the tombstone and just that's happening.

02:50:22.480 --> 02:50:25.280
He just does too much damage right now. He's got too much backup.

02:50:28.400 --> 02:50:29.680
Aw, again...

02:50:30.680 --> 02:50:35.500
Early start, the 2-0s that started the day yesterday for Team Spirit

02:50:35.760 --> 02:50:38.640
and have continued on, are they going to be able to do it again?

02:50:38.800 --> 02:50:40.600
Apojka felt the confidence.

02:50:41.140 --> 02:50:46.180
Yandex, who, his entire year, have not lost a series

02:50:46.180 --> 02:50:52.260
The team spirit on the verge of being eliminated here in the lower bracket finals made a bet at TI

02:50:53.300 --> 02:50:55.300
He quite get the connection

02:50:55.460 --> 02:50:57.460
on the cheer junior

02:50:59.700 --> 02:51:06.020
Through he's getting the game closers, you know the Vlad's at 26 minutes. Oh, yeah, that's a I'm finished

02:51:06.020 --> 02:51:11.460
You know, we got enough. We got all the right items. We are ready to end this game at our leisure a

02:51:11.460 --> 02:51:17.420
A minute 40 still left on this ages very well set for a potential Tier 3 push if they want to clean up this top lane

02:51:19.180 --> 02:51:22.580
Watson could go ahead and try and catch them these ways, but just has to be careful

02:51:23.780 --> 02:51:29.060
Dm melody Watson, they're all on the bottom side of the map here. No intention of fighting this top tier 2

02:51:29.800 --> 02:51:37.360
What do we have here? I mean we got quicks. What the hell is this man? They got all the items. They got items outside of the game

02:51:37.360 --> 02:51:42.680
We have the congregations of the deeps upon DM the croaker the river born or

02:51:42.680 --> 02:51:47.560
unfortunately there's no river in the base yes to maybe change that. Hey well. Oh

02:51:47.560 --> 02:51:52.760
DM why he gets him? We're trying to chase him not afford to get caught like I

02:51:52.760 --> 02:51:56.840
mean there's still not many shots. Okay, those sectors good.

02:51:56.840 --> 02:52:02.200
Fortunately, left is right there to clean them up. But that's what you have to

02:52:02.200 --> 02:52:07.040
do for Yandex if they want any hope in this game delay cut waves trying to get

02:52:07.040 --> 02:52:12.840
Now they do see for a completely alone down here with 42nd left on the ages

02:52:14.200 --> 02:52:18.200
The problem is they're still stampede Watson finds a shrine of wisdom

02:52:19.040 --> 02:52:22.840
There you go. That make me only better. Not really

02:52:25.600 --> 02:52:32.820
I'm sure junior he brought down again. It has been such a rock series. Yeah, nobody. Yeah, that's that's an issue

02:52:32.820 --> 02:52:37.440
That is an issue. That is a major problem here. They can take this outpost.

02:52:37.440 --> 02:52:41.580
They can start pressuring the high ground if they wish. It is only 10 seconds left on the ages

02:52:41.580 --> 02:52:46.520
So perhaps they could consider it unnecessary, but has that really stopped you spirit in their last four games?

02:52:46.520 --> 02:52:49.880
I don't think so. They were going high ground when they still have the tier 2 up. Yeah

02:52:49.880 --> 02:52:53.700
It's just going to kill people. I mean they don't have a she-va. So the initial jump is a little sketch

02:52:53.940 --> 02:52:59.060
Compared to most games we had the clockwork. So if you want just put all your faith in not me personally

02:52:59.060 --> 02:53:02.020
I would. I've seen how he's played the last couple of days.

02:53:02.020 --> 02:53:05.780
They could opt for it, but the safer option is certainly to continue to control the map

02:53:06.580 --> 02:53:11.620
and just let Yandex create their own issues by leaving the base.

02:53:13.700 --> 02:53:15.940
I'm already waiting for somebody to step out.

02:53:16.900 --> 02:53:17.380
Is that enough?

02:53:18.580 --> 02:53:22.740
I mean, he's not the biggest target in the world.

02:53:22.740 --> 02:53:25.620
You know, maybe they're a little bit off on the timing of the season start.

02:53:25.620 --> 02:53:27.860
It was still 40 seconds to back up again.

02:53:29.060 --> 02:53:34.980
I can extend this out as much as possible for Yandex.

02:53:34.980 --> 02:53:38.620
The micro manoeuvres here are from Watts and he's just spamming the trance out amongst

02:53:38.620 --> 02:53:41.500
the map, scouting, trying to spot where they're at on the spear.

02:53:41.500 --> 02:53:43.780
He brought the stampede to catch Soxa.

02:53:43.780 --> 02:53:46.260
You're going to lose heroes like this pretty consistently.

02:53:46.260 --> 02:53:47.260
Got the link?

02:53:47.260 --> 02:53:48.260
I don't know.

02:53:48.260 --> 02:53:49.260
That's there.

02:53:49.260 --> 02:53:55.620
Faced it the wrong way from the blink, but whatever the case is, it is a smoke

02:53:55.620 --> 02:53:58.580
up now coming out as the ages has been reclaimed.

02:53:58.580 --> 02:54:05.980
And the girls showing on the lane they're painting where they think he is gonna be and he is over there

02:54:06.920 --> 02:54:13.700
They find him as he comes back this direction completely alone the biggest human this this would be what they need and they got him right there

02:54:13.820 --> 02:54:18.080
Jump forward got him caught congregations trying to save the tune they profit

02:54:18.800 --> 02:54:24.820
That is the best thing that has happened to Yandex in a very long time. This would be bad

02:54:24.820 --> 02:54:29.660
This would be really bad. They don't have shadow keen though. So maybe they feel confident taking this right

02:54:29.980 --> 02:54:36.100
Watson standing there next to Laurel DM getting down on the low ground finds not me. It's not terrible

02:54:36.540 --> 02:54:43.020
They actually do bring down the undying and as the BKB is out gonna need to run nowhere left to run

02:54:43.020 --> 02:54:46.620
Yeah, it's gonna fall and that bastard gonna make sure that you are not safe

02:54:47.060 --> 02:54:52.860
You're golden god for him here, but double kill for Laurel kill on Yadaro the annex will take it

02:54:52.860 --> 02:55:00.540
It's something yes. I mean he's a lot of gold going back our way. Yeah big bounty there for a DM

02:55:00.540 --> 02:55:06.020
I'm glad he just dropped the gym man. Yeah, you know, they look like they're thinking about holding it Watson was coming in

02:55:06.020 --> 02:55:11.160
He was just like a second too late to ensure they wouldn't have to so they just secured of course that being said

02:55:11.160 --> 02:55:13.540
Maybe you needed that too. Maybe that helps you get a secondary kill here

02:55:13.540 --> 02:55:15.820
Speaking of a secondary kill Watson found by collapse

02:55:15.820 --> 02:55:18.820
The staff's down the below ground, they're stampeding in.

02:55:18.820 --> 02:55:19.820
Did he wait too long?

02:55:19.820 --> 02:55:20.820
Yes, he did!

02:55:20.820 --> 02:55:25.820
Naughty was out of range at the start, and TP's away.

02:55:25.820 --> 02:55:27.820
The BKB lasts long enough.

02:55:27.820 --> 02:55:29.820
He does get him out of trouble.

02:55:29.820 --> 02:55:32.820
The Seared Junior gets caught by the bash.

02:55:32.820 --> 02:55:34.820
Not going to be so lucky.

02:55:34.820 --> 02:55:39.820
There is not quite going to be able to get into range to save him there.

02:55:39.820 --> 02:55:47.060
there even when you get something good with the shadow came killed comes at a

02:55:47.060 --> 02:55:52.780
price he was dead for ages huh 23

02:55:52.780 --> 02:55:58.060
he is absolutely massive here and still not considering anything too defensive

02:55:58.060 --> 02:56:02.500
wants to think of the data was first that's collapse's job yeah exactly you

02:56:02.500 --> 02:56:06.100
saved me team I mean Laurel love me like there's there's so many good heroes

02:56:06.100 --> 02:56:10.260
here at providing space and safety for a big range carry.

02:56:10.260 --> 02:56:12.060
Now this could be so many different heroes on Yadrow,

02:56:12.060 --> 02:56:13.860
and it's just a very similar game.

02:56:13.860 --> 02:56:18.020
Just want to expect it, stomp off, stomp on, double edge,

02:56:18.020 --> 02:56:20.140
and it accidentally pops his DKB.

02:56:20.140 --> 02:56:21.940
Like, I was getting wobbled in the bottom lane.

02:56:21.940 --> 02:56:23.780
I mean, you saw him hitting his keyboard at the end

02:56:23.780 --> 02:56:27.540
of the last game, accidentally paused it.

02:56:27.540 --> 02:56:32.140
You know, it's very hyped up about that one.

02:56:32.140 --> 02:56:34.480
No BKB timing, maybe.

02:56:37.780 --> 02:56:39.820
All right, DM just sold the Tormenter.

02:56:40.420 --> 02:56:41.920
You know, take it down.

02:56:46.160 --> 02:56:48.320
He's going to cut another wave.

02:56:48.460 --> 02:56:51.100
He's just hoping he doesn't get spotted here as he fling gates out.

02:56:52.160 --> 02:56:54.240
Players going the other way, though.

02:56:55.400 --> 02:56:59.140
Hotney is going to be on the same side as him, though.

02:56:59.140 --> 02:57:04.300
And how annoying it can be getting these heroes caught.

02:57:04.300 --> 02:57:11.360
Toro having an inkling, an idea, DM, ooooh boy, rocket flare.

02:57:11.360 --> 02:57:13.760
It's out of trouble.

02:57:13.760 --> 02:57:17.440
I like some of the ideas they've gone for in terms of itemization though on the side of the index.

02:57:17.440 --> 02:57:19.360
Like going for the Shiva's Guard on the snapfire.

02:57:19.360 --> 02:57:21.040
I like this over the BKB.

02:57:21.040 --> 02:57:23.240
I feel like if you go BKB, it's just not gonna be enough.

02:57:23.240 --> 02:57:25.680
I don't think you can stand all of the BKBs anyway.

02:57:25.680 --> 02:57:26.180
Right.

02:57:26.180 --> 02:57:32.060
You're well up there. Trying to live a little bit longer is going to tombstone himself.

02:57:32.060 --> 02:57:37.820
Here, Junior, is up on the high ground. The problem is that like, again, how do you start

02:57:37.820 --> 02:57:39.620
the fight? It's like all on DM.

02:57:39.620 --> 02:57:44.980
It is. 100% just DM. That truly is the major issue. And he has gone for the Sheva's Guard

02:57:44.980 --> 02:57:48.260
as well. So they're definitely up on it. But again, all the next set, all the extra

02:57:48.260 --> 02:57:51.620
armor is very good. So DM needs to get in here and spot this all with the Sheva's

02:57:51.620 --> 02:57:52.620
Guard to set up the kisses.

02:57:52.620 --> 02:57:56.100
This is a really good ward, but they're going to get the Stomp to open it. Disruption.

02:57:56.100 --> 02:57:58.940
The player, not me, Finals GM.

02:57:58.940 --> 02:58:02.340
Now the damage coming out, oh, it's insane.

02:58:02.340 --> 02:58:04.100
Already out and on top of it,

02:58:04.100 --> 02:58:06.180
they get the save for the Shadow Fiend.

02:58:06.180 --> 02:58:08.540
He's gonna be fine, triple gone.

02:58:08.540 --> 02:58:10.540
Your entire, Austin goes in.

02:58:10.540 --> 02:58:13.740
Besides he wants to fight, that is not the decision

02:58:13.740 --> 02:58:16.020
that's gonna work out the way you hoped it would.

02:58:16.020 --> 02:58:19.340
Chira Junior also gone, there are no buyback

02:58:19.340 --> 02:58:22.780
and all three of the players, the game is called.

02:58:22.780 --> 02:58:26.080
Team Spirit are going to the Grand Finals.

02:58:26.080 --> 02:58:29.620
Who would win fiery demon or a single rocket?

02:58:29.620 --> 02:58:31.160
Coming out from Naughty on the clock,

02:58:31.160 --> 02:58:33.220
this guy has been unbelievable on the zero.

02:58:33.220 --> 02:58:36.060
He ends any hope of a fight there for Yandex.

02:58:36.060 --> 02:58:37.500
No blink in from the doom.

02:58:37.500 --> 02:58:38.560
He's the only hope.

02:58:38.560 --> 02:58:39.460
He is the key.

02:58:39.460 --> 02:58:41.260
Team Spirit, there is the best team

02:58:41.260 --> 02:58:44.060
that identified how the enemy wants to let team fight

02:58:44.060 --> 02:58:45.740
and removing that possibility.

02:58:45.740 --> 02:58:49.140
Listen, vision, they said they wanted to fight in this spot.

02:58:49.140 --> 02:58:50.680
They wanted to fight them.

02:58:50.680 --> 02:58:51.780
Vision were looking good.

02:58:51.780 --> 02:58:57.580
They were all over the place, but Team Spirit has leveled up over the past couple of days.

02:58:57.580 --> 02:58:59.140
They take down Gandex.

02:58:59.140 --> 02:59:02.820
One of these squads has been above there for them constantly.

02:59:02.820 --> 02:59:04.820
Have they awoken a demon?

02:59:04.820 --> 02:59:06.820
Can you stop Gatoro?

02:59:06.820 --> 02:59:13.860
This man is a menace on this stage, and he just took out Gandex.

02:59:13.860 --> 02:59:17.620
It doesn't feel good when you have defeated this team over and over again all year.

02:59:17.620 --> 02:59:21.020
And coming into today, everyone still has Team Spirit as my favorites.

02:59:21.020 --> 02:59:22.300
You can feel it, right?

02:59:22.300 --> 02:59:25.400
It's in the arena, it's in the air, it's in the crowd cheering.

02:59:25.400 --> 02:59:27.500
We all see what's happening with Team Spirit.

02:59:27.500 --> 02:59:28.500
We've been here before.

02:59:28.500 --> 02:59:32.340
We've watched this evolution and growth of this team, and it truly is horrifying to the

02:59:32.340 --> 02:59:35.020
state of which they can reach.

02:59:35.020 --> 02:59:39.940
Something to watch out for indeed is we're getting ready for the grand finals.

02:59:39.940 --> 02:59:42.020
Team Spirit take the 2-0.

02:59:42.020 --> 02:59:47.380
They have not lost a game in many days.

02:59:47.380 --> 02:59:55.220
It's feeling like it's going to be the final boss here as they have often been at the international.

02:59:55.220 --> 03:00:01.860
Two players that potentially could go for a third Aegis as well.

03:00:01.860 --> 03:00:07.780
Opportunities about to make this work. Team Spirit, Grand Finals.

03:00:17.380 --> 03:00:19.380
Let's take it away

03:00:19.940 --> 03:00:24.700
We've got Rue and not me all of your teammates are TI champions

03:00:24.700 --> 03:00:28.600
But they say you too are the best guys on the team

03:00:28.620 --> 03:00:34.920
You were so close to cementing yourselves as the next great Dota 2 generation

03:00:34.920 --> 03:00:40.280
I want to know how are you feeling getting this close to your first ages?

03:00:40.860 --> 03:00:43.900
Really amazing. What can I do?

03:00:43.900 --> 03:00:52.900
So can I say I mean like it was the finals first time I hope my team will get him in.

03:00:52.900 --> 03:00:58.900
You have three TI champions with you to fight in the gym.

03:00:58.900 --> 03:01:02.900
And now you're going to face your first TI.

03:01:02.900 --> 03:01:03.900
Do you have anything to say, Ru?

03:01:03.900 --> 03:01:05.900
To be honest, I'm not sure what to say.

03:01:05.900 --> 03:01:08.900
But I just hope my teammates can carry me in the final.

03:01:22.900 --> 03:01:24.900
Thank you to all the viewers, friends.

03:01:29.900 --> 03:01:31.900
Do you have anything to say to them?

03:01:32.900 --> 03:01:35.900
Thank you all for your support, guys. I love you.

03:01:36.900 --> 03:01:39.900
What is this, guys?

03:01:46.900 --> 03:01:48.900
Alright, now going into this tournament,

03:01:48.900 --> 03:01:55.900
A lot of people have known that Vision is the team to beat, but they seem invincible.

03:01:55.900 --> 03:02:01.900
They have beaten you guys before, but after that series, it looks like you are a different team.

03:02:01.900 --> 03:02:04.900
Are you ready to take Vision down?

03:02:13.900 --> 03:02:15.900
Yes!

03:02:15.900 --> 03:02:16.900
Of course!

03:02:16.900 --> 03:02:19.540
Let's court! Let's go!

03:02:19.540 --> 03:02:22.420
Let's give our Team Spirit another round of applause.

03:02:22.420 --> 03:02:24.540
Rue, not me!

03:02:24.540 --> 03:02:27.340
Give us the remaining time to analyze the stage.

03:02:30.700 --> 03:02:36.140
I love seeing both of them on that stage.

03:02:36.140 --> 03:02:38.820
The two remaining players of Team Spirit

03:02:38.820 --> 03:02:41.140
without a ring on their hands

03:02:41.140 --> 03:02:44.180
and they have the chance to do it later today

03:02:44.180 --> 03:02:51.260
against Team Vision, Team Spirit. Ever since they got knocked to the lower bracket by Team

03:02:51.260 --> 03:02:56.660
Vision, they're like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Let's do that again. And they, they were

03:02:56.660 --> 03:03:00.580
brutal in their road. We had Nebraska there at the end, Ray. And he's like, yeah, you

03:03:00.580 --> 03:03:04.580
know, I'm totally happy with this, with this draft. Of course, we're going to win totally

03:03:04.580 --> 03:03:06.460
sure. There was no doubt whatsoever.

03:03:06.460 --> 03:03:11.420
I feel again, like they just have so much ease of execution on their lineup. It's

03:03:11.420 --> 03:03:16.060
So simple how these two supports can play with each other around the map and move. I mean, I'm not gonna lie

03:03:16.060 --> 03:03:19.540
I mean, we got to talk about your Torah at some point, but holy shit. He overperformed

03:03:19.540 --> 03:03:25.100
I mean, not only that let's not forget that not me how many tier 1s event has he played this season in his career

03:03:26.020 --> 03:03:29.300
Five this is his fifth correct you count it on a single

03:03:33.900 --> 03:03:39.540
Losing and then yes, he's making it to the grand finals. I mean team spirit. They are absolutely exceptional right now

03:03:39.540 --> 03:03:46.740
They are in form. They are going to be an absolute amazing competitor against vision who also are in incredible form

03:03:46.740 --> 03:03:51.660
This is going to be a amazing grand finals. I mean, we are honestly just blessed right last year

03:03:51.660 --> 03:03:54.220
We had Falcons XG at three two grand finals now

03:03:54.220 --> 03:03:56.540
We have like your Toro versus Tannick vision versus spirit

03:03:56.540 --> 03:04:00.220
It's like back-to-back just amazing grand finals. So whoo

03:04:00.620 --> 03:04:05.340
Yeah, this is also very very special because normally the youngest players in a team

03:04:05.340 --> 03:04:10.500
And they are usually the mid laners or the carry players, but in this team, for instance,

03:04:10.500 --> 03:04:15.140
in RU, not me, they are the most inexperienced players, they are the newcomers, and they

03:04:15.140 --> 03:04:19.180
are the ones that the co-periors are parrying, we are winning our games because the support

03:04:19.180 --> 03:04:22.940
players are amazing, they are setting up a lot of kills for us and I think this

03:04:22.940 --> 03:04:26.180
has changed so much over the course of history of Dota.

03:04:26.180 --> 03:04:31.300
Oh look at you, our collapse in space, he knows it.

03:04:31.300 --> 03:04:40.020
Team Spirit has a 100% win rate in Grand Finals of the International, so he is feeling it.

03:04:40.020 --> 03:04:43.820
Absolutely, you played a great center of this game, of course, as well.

03:04:43.820 --> 03:04:46.860
But I think this game round, Rhea, you were on point if you're going to talk about any

03:04:46.860 --> 03:04:48.460
MVP that's going to be you, Toro.

03:04:48.460 --> 03:04:49.700
I can't believe it.

03:04:49.700 --> 03:04:51.260
He was so active.

03:04:51.260 --> 03:04:54.740
I think last game, I felt like he had such a good lead that he just pushed that

03:04:54.740 --> 03:04:55.740
advantage.

03:04:55.740 --> 03:04:58.460
This game, he just makes his own advantage, even more.

03:04:58.460 --> 03:04:59.740
It was very good.

03:04:59.740 --> 03:05:06.660
was fairly one-sided and on the other side of Team Spirit it was Yandex that fell here

03:05:06.660 --> 03:05:13.460
and for the final words we're heading over to Saxa.

03:05:13.460 --> 03:05:17.740
Thank you, I am here with Saxa from Team Yandex, Saxa Commiserations, we're sorry to see you

03:05:17.740 --> 03:05:22.860
guys go out of the tournament. I know you're disappointed but you guys have had a fantastic

03:05:22.860 --> 03:05:27.100
season, three first places, lots of second, third and fourths, you've made it to the

03:05:27.100 --> 03:05:29.140
third place finish here in TI.

03:05:29.140 --> 03:05:31.860
How happy are you overall with how your team has done this

03:05:31.860 --> 03:05:33.180
season?

03:05:33.180 --> 03:05:49.060
I think the season has been good for us.

03:05:49.060 --> 03:05:52.380
We've had a lot of good results.

03:05:52.380 --> 03:05:53.980
It's a very young team.

03:05:53.980 --> 03:05:57.060
And for Aladaga, it was the first time winning.

03:05:57.060 --> 03:06:00.940
So with the results, we're happy, obviously, a bit sad now.

03:06:00.940 --> 03:06:04.500
But top three at TI, it's not a bad result by any means.

03:06:04.500 --> 03:06:09.860
And overall, I'm not too unhappy with the season.

03:06:09.860 --> 03:06:14.180
Overall, I'm still very satisfied with the results of the whole season.

03:06:14.180 --> 03:06:16.420
We are a very young team.

03:06:16.420 --> 03:06:20.260
Many people have won the championship for the first time.

03:06:20.260 --> 03:06:22.580
We will continue to work hard.

03:06:22.580 --> 03:06:27.020
And I'm also very satisfied with the results of the TI3.

03:06:28.780 --> 03:06:30.740
So, you're a veteran player.

03:06:30.740 --> 03:06:33.700
You've been here and done that, a regular on the TI stage.

03:06:33.700 --> 03:06:36.580
The group stage here for Yandex wasn't the best.

03:06:36.580 --> 03:06:38.140
What did you say to the players

03:06:38.140 --> 03:06:41.140
to give them a boost and get them to this third place.

03:06:52.140 --> 03:06:56.140
Something I always say to my teams at TI is like,

03:06:56.140 --> 03:06:58.140
you can always expect other teams to play bad,

03:06:58.140 --> 03:07:01.140
and this is like a tournament in the season

03:07:01.140 --> 03:07:03.140
where many people are going to play much worse,

03:07:03.140 --> 03:07:06.140
so that also brings me comfort to know that

03:07:06.140 --> 03:07:14.140
That's just another player worse, so I just told him as long as we focus on our game, we just play our Dota, we'll be fine.

03:07:15.140 --> 03:07:27.140
I often tell them that if they are not good at playing T.I., it's normal, but as long as they continue to play their Dota, we will play better.

03:07:28.140 --> 03:07:34.140
Well, Saxo, we're sorry to see you guys go here and you've got a lot of support in the arena and around the whole Dota community.

03:07:34.140 --> 03:07:38.140
Do you have any words for the fans out there who have been supporting you guys all season?

03:07:44.140 --> 03:07:52.140
I just want to thank everybody for supporting us. It brings us a lot of energy and we feel motivated to do so.

03:07:52.140 --> 03:08:00.140
Also, I want to say thanks to the crowd here. I think it has been amazing. Honestly, it has exceeded my expectations.

03:08:00.140 --> 03:08:06.140
And I hope you get another TI here, or many more tournaments, so yeah, thank you.

03:08:06.140 --> 03:08:09.140
Thank you very much for your support.

03:08:09.140 --> 03:08:12.140
You are our motivation.

03:08:12.140 --> 03:08:15.140
Thank you very much to all the viewers on the stage.

03:08:15.140 --> 03:08:18.140
Your cheers make us so much happier.

03:08:18.140 --> 03:08:21.140
We also hope that if there is a chance,

03:08:21.140 --> 03:08:23.140
TI will be able to hold the event here again.

03:08:26.140 --> 03:08:29.140
Soxa is getting a lot of crowd cheers there

03:08:29.140 --> 03:08:32.140
with his final words as he exits the International Hits,

03:08:32.140 --> 03:08:35.140
eighth international here at third place.

03:08:35.140 --> 03:08:43.740
place. If he wants to get three rings on his fingers, he's got to play a couple more years here, which is a treat for us.

03:08:43.740 --> 03:08:47.740
But some final words on Yan next. They are one of the most successful teams.

03:08:47.740 --> 03:08:52.740
Winter of the season, Saksa says it. Top three is not bad at all.

03:08:52.740 --> 03:08:54.940
Yeah, and I also thought the opportunity to follow them.

03:08:54.940 --> 03:09:00.540
I was doing a lot of coverage for their games back in December last year when they first started out.

03:09:00.540 --> 03:09:04.340
I think it was problems. They had problems and Saksa came in after that.

03:09:04.340 --> 03:09:07.740
and I could see them growing as a team, how much they've improved.

03:09:07.740 --> 03:09:11.580
And even during the initial stages, I saw a lot of potential in the team.

03:09:11.580 --> 03:09:16.420
I felt like given a little bit more time, they could really grow into a very, very strong team.

03:09:16.420 --> 03:09:18.020
And it didn't really take them long into them.

03:09:18.020 --> 03:09:21.340
I think one month or two months to show everyone what they could do as a team.

03:09:21.340 --> 03:09:27.380
Yeah, and I know, Rhea, they really wanted to get all tournaments under their belt.

03:09:27.380 --> 03:09:32.660
Yeah, back in Blast, Watson told us that he was hoping to get one win

03:09:32.660 --> 03:09:39.580
from each organizer. You know, they won a blast. They won a Wallachia. They won a Dream League,

03:09:39.580 --> 03:09:43.180
so they really are just doing the circuit. Obviously, they had their chance for the ages,

03:09:43.180 --> 03:09:47.900
which is the most coveted of all, but they weren't quite able to get it maybe next year.

03:09:47.900 --> 03:09:52.020
I don't think he intended for it to be all this year, but the fact that they nearly

03:09:52.020 --> 03:09:57.820
did something pretty damn good. Yeah. It's crazy that their opponent spirit had

03:09:57.820 --> 03:10:01.860
to see a lot more of him.

03:10:01.860 --> 03:10:03.460
0s Decker Barrison this season

03:10:03.460 --> 03:10:04.900
has been crazy. It's all about

03:10:04.900 --> 03:10:06.500
peaking at the right time. And

03:10:06.500 --> 03:10:07.660
to be honest, the honest they'd

03:10:07.660 --> 03:10:09.060
have a very good year, and

03:10:09.060 --> 03:10:10.500
maybe this game number two

03:10:10.500 --> 03:10:12.140
wasn't as good as they wanted

03:10:12.140 --> 03:10:13.940
it to be. But there were

03:10:13.940 --> 03:10:15.580
definitely some highlights

03:10:15.580 --> 03:10:16.980
for them. For example, share

03:10:16.980 --> 03:10:18.140
Junior in that mid lane. I'm

03:10:18.140 --> 03:10:19.340
sure we're going to see a lot

03:10:19.340 --> 03:10:20.420
more of him. Actually we're

03:10:20.420 --> 03:10:21.620
going to see a lot more of him

03:10:21.620 --> 03:10:23.380
right now as we head over the

03:10:23.380 --> 03:10:25.180
purge. Thank you, Shever.

03:10:25.180 --> 03:10:26.820
Yes, you're one his mid lane

03:10:26.820 --> 03:10:31.060
Spirit to win even more impressive, but I want you to just watch how dominant he is against Laurel

03:10:31.060 --> 03:10:33.420
He played against the pango both games both games

03:10:33.420 --> 03:10:39.120
He had their number who's getting consistent amount of assets tons of harass and denies and what he's been doing very well

03:10:39.120 --> 03:10:45.980
He's generally spending his manager harass and Laurel is being forced to use his spells simply to get last hits and when you have that kind of a

03:10:47.400 --> 03:10:53.240
Inequality the manner that your junior gains and the money that he gains from the last it ends up making a really big difference

03:10:53.240 --> 03:10:59.560
In fact, he zoned him so much at this point. He's got 21 last hits 12 denies versus the eight last hits of Laurel

03:10:59.720 --> 03:11:01.200
He zones him from the lane

03:11:01.200 --> 03:11:04.940
He's forced to go heal and watch how he plays around him coming back into the lane

03:11:04.940 --> 03:11:07.660
This kind of dominance is crazy against top players by the way

03:11:07.660 --> 03:11:13.120
He grabs the first water room and he actually leaves the bottom one there to temp to Laurel into wanting to take it

03:11:13.120 --> 03:11:17.640
And now he's playing this game where is he gonna use his spells and is he gonna be able to catch Laurel?

03:11:17.640 --> 03:11:20.480
They do a little bit of a dancing move there at the same time which is very cool

03:11:20.480 --> 03:11:25.680
the law knows law knows he can't go this way and back without getting killed so he says still play the left side now

03:11:25.680 --> 03:11:27.120
He finally thinks this is my chance

03:11:27.120 --> 03:11:32.640
I can get that way but cheer junior with that blast is on top of him prevents him from getting that and as a result of

03:11:32.640 --> 03:11:36.680
Protecting this water now cheer junior gets to go get it when his resources are low

03:11:36.680 --> 03:11:40.040
So he's basically using it as a bait, but also a way to get himself forward

03:11:40.040 --> 03:11:43.920
So that was amazing by him, but the downside was what happens after it

03:11:43.920 --> 03:11:49.040
How does spirit react to this great early game by them Yandex? He tepees to the off lane

03:11:49.040 --> 03:11:52.680
He's looking for a snapfire ultimate on somebody, but they anticipate this

03:11:52.680 --> 03:11:57.440
They're just don't give him the opportunity so this teleport ends up being a complete waste by him and it kind of

03:11:57.560 --> 03:12:02.160
Continues in this way as well. Laurel is gonna eventually get enough levels to naturally kill creep waves

03:12:02.160 --> 03:12:07.200
He uses his spells on the waves they die and he can leave so he doesn't care anymore that he's behind and watch

03:12:07.200 --> 03:12:08.960
While how he uses his ultimate here

03:12:08.960 --> 03:12:15.320
He actually turns a kill out of his level six where a shiru junior didn't get his earlier and he teleported this time a

03:12:15.320 --> 03:12:19.640
second time. So this amazing early game that your junior got didn't turn into

03:12:19.640 --> 03:12:23.760
anything super substantial despite getting Laurel behind. So this is the main

03:12:23.760 --> 03:12:27.880
reason that Team Spirit was able to get ahead in this game despite losing their

03:12:27.880 --> 03:12:30.520
lanes. They just didn't care about it because they knew they were going to play

03:12:30.520 --> 03:12:35.640
well. Thank you very much, Pergs. You had the movements of Team Spirit. We keep

03:12:35.640 --> 03:12:38.760
bringing it up time and time again because they are just superb. But we

03:12:38.760 --> 03:12:42.200
had a couple of movements, of course, also from Team Jannex. And one of

03:12:42.200 --> 03:12:46.160
them was when Shiro Jr. had his blinked agorade.

03:12:46.160 --> 03:12:51.080
Yeah, I think what Puzzles brought up was fantastic. The fact that Team Spirit anticipated

03:12:51.080 --> 03:12:56.160
the level six timing from the snapfire and avoided it, it's very consistent throughout

03:12:56.160 --> 03:13:01.120
this game. So Yandex smoke up when they get the blink from the snapfire and they move

03:13:01.120 --> 03:13:06.480
to bot lane. However, even in that moment, Team Spirit are aware of this move and they

03:13:06.480 --> 03:13:11.080
have Loll positioned on the one high ground and then they have the supports positioned

03:13:11.080 --> 03:13:15.720
on the other entrance to their jungle to try and break this smoke and make it so they cannot

03:13:15.720 --> 03:13:22.360
get the opportunity they need for a kill. Weirdly enough, it actually goes much better than it

03:13:22.360 --> 03:13:29.800
should have. Chirjuna blinks in, which maybe surprises them. Rue misses his bushwhack and

03:13:29.800 --> 03:13:35.640
as a result he dies and they get a couple kills. So this was a nice move in the end for Yandex,

03:13:35.640 --> 03:13:40.600
but the fact that Team Spirit was still so prepared for it I think is kind of more of the

03:13:40.600 --> 03:13:45.560
point of why they were playing so well this game. You can just say that Spirit is very calm, they know

03:13:45.560 --> 03:13:49.480
what they're going to do. The drafts are very simple so then the players can focus on all the

03:13:49.480 --> 03:13:53.800
minutiae in the game, whereas they're not having to overthink things. Sure, the fight might not

03:13:53.800 --> 03:13:58.040
go their way in the end, but everything that Spirit did in both of these games, it just was

03:13:58.040 --> 03:14:03.160
like a complete team diff, unfortunately, in the lower bracket. Yeah, maybe also a little bit

03:14:03.160 --> 03:14:09.160
of a carry diff as well as we are going to look at something Winter wanted to see again,

03:14:09.160 --> 03:14:10.920
And maybe again, maybe again.

03:14:10.920 --> 03:14:18.600
And just one of the few moments of the Yatoro show here, I think he had like a really really good game.

03:14:18.600 --> 03:14:23.400
There was this one moment where his game was so good, he was farming, again you know he was farming the enemy triangle,

03:14:23.400 --> 03:14:28.120
he was trying to farm the enemy ancients and Wattons like, I'm gonna TP there you know.

03:14:28.120 --> 03:14:33.080
But guess what? Yatoro is already there for us you know and thank you very much for that bonus kill.

03:14:33.080 --> 03:14:36.360
Yeah it was really cool because there was a fight happening on the bottom side where his team was dying.

03:14:36.360 --> 03:14:40.480
So he was like, you know, I'll stay in the triangle a little bit longer because maybe they'll retreat up into the triangle

03:14:40.480 --> 03:14:43.080
Then he gets the kills and then of course, you know, law

03:14:43.080 --> 03:14:45.400
I think that the main thing as well is like your tour is popping off

03:14:45.400 --> 03:14:48.800
But law has been so aggressive in both of these games

03:14:48.800 --> 03:14:54.520
Sure, he's leaning into difficult matchups has been you know, maybe not going his way the ember the Marana in game one

03:14:54.520 --> 03:14:56.520
This time around playing into the snapfire

03:14:56.520 --> 03:15:00.640
But his bounce back his ability to open up the game to match your tour is energy

03:15:00.640 --> 03:15:06.880
Lowe's just everywhere in this game on the pangolin and then yeah, they were just diving and not giving a

03:15:07.440 --> 03:15:11.100
About this game is a perfect example of why right now

03:15:11.620 --> 03:15:17.160
Laning phase is not as important and you see teams like like a boom boys. They really prioritize the lane if it's enough

03:15:17.160 --> 03:15:21.020
They did they did really well, but still like when it came down to the best teams

03:15:21.020 --> 03:15:24.920
The absolute best things is just not really a way of winning the game

03:15:24.920 --> 03:15:29.040
I think and sharing that you have draft integrity and sharing that you have a way to play the mid game

03:15:29.040 --> 03:15:31.040
it's okay to lose the lane,

03:15:31.040 --> 03:15:33.040
even though they lost the lane

03:15:33.040 --> 03:15:35.040
this badly on the pango.

03:15:35.040 --> 03:15:40.040
The main question I think a lot of people will be asking themselves is if this type of

03:15:40.040 --> 03:15:44.040
laning stage T happens against vision.

03:15:44.040 --> 03:15:48.040
I mean, I feel like this is going to be right back and forth, of course, at the grand finals.

03:15:48.040 --> 03:15:51.040
Like these two teams have already won, they had two won earlier in the tournament.

03:15:51.040 --> 03:15:54.040
Like this is not going to be a shutout where it's a 3-0.

03:15:54.040 --> 03:15:56.040
It feels like it's meant to be a lot harder.

03:15:56.040 --> 03:15:58.040
I think spirit are going to have to put up a better fight.

03:15:58.040 --> 03:16:02.000
to be as easy. I do feel like

03:16:02.000 --> 03:16:03.740
you're unstoppable quite heavily

03:16:03.740 --> 03:16:05.140
in the drafts today. Unfortunately,

03:16:05.140 --> 03:16:06.840
not putting up the fight, so yeah,

03:16:06.840 --> 03:16:08.940
it's only going to get harder for

03:16:08.940 --> 03:16:11.940
spirit now. Team vision will be

03:16:11.940 --> 03:16:14.040
the ultimate boss for teams

03:16:14.040 --> 03:16:17.040
spirits or the other way around

03:16:17.040 --> 03:16:19.040
because. Did you really win a T. I

03:16:19.040 --> 03:16:21.040
without beating team spirit in

03:16:21.040 --> 03:16:22.040
the grand finals? I don't know

03:16:22.040 --> 03:16:24.040
about that right. I think this

03:16:24.040 --> 03:16:26.040
is a very poetic and I think it

03:16:26.040 --> 03:16:29.640
Team Spirit haven't lost the Grand Finals that they've played in yet.

03:16:29.640 --> 03:16:31.400
This could be the first time.

03:16:31.400 --> 03:16:35.560
I do think we will definitely get more than a 3-0 with how these games have been going.

03:16:35.560 --> 03:16:40.360
I think the crowd is so in love with Spirit and how Vision have been playing.

03:16:40.360 --> 03:16:44.760
I think the environment, the mood, the vibe is going to be way up to the ceiling.

03:16:44.760 --> 03:16:48.280
I genuinely don't think we could have asked for a better Grand Final right now.

03:16:48.280 --> 03:16:51.720
The student, C-Tenig, meets the master, Yatoro.

03:16:51.720 --> 03:16:53.720
That's going to be a hell of a show.

03:16:53.720 --> 03:16:59.880
But also two old timers right the two legacy post five players poppy and Moposhka transitioning to coaching and now it's like

03:17:00.720 --> 03:17:05.840
Who is the better new coach on the block? I wasn't gonna say for both. It's their first time in the coaching

03:17:06.200 --> 03:17:11.360
Exactly. Yeah, that's what I miss. It's kind of crazy to think that I mean when you have such a big career

03:17:11.360 --> 03:17:14.040
It's quite easy to just you know to take a little sidestep to coaching

03:17:14.040 --> 03:17:16.960
But I just like how happy Moposhka looks on stage

03:17:16.960 --> 03:17:19.920
He's like when he leaves a draft like he knows like I've done my job

03:17:19.920 --> 03:17:21.320
I don't have to play the game now. Yay

03:17:21.320 --> 03:17:26.120
And then of course poppy like he just there just enjoying inventing some stuff like hey go try this

03:17:26.120 --> 03:17:29.880
It doesn't work in the game, too. That's fine. We'll win game three in my ponds

03:17:30.760 --> 03:17:33.960
Exactly it's such a different style of coaching between the two of them

03:17:33.960 --> 03:17:39.320
But the drafting is gonna be just on another level it will be on another level. I mentioned

03:17:39.320 --> 03:17:44.120
There's a three-time hopefuls in our grand finals here today as well, which is I think

03:17:45.600 --> 03:17:47.600
Crazy, you know what makes it crazier

03:17:47.600 --> 03:17:56.600
easier, Yatoro and Collapse. Yatoro for example, Windsor. Now don't worry, you're not old,

03:17:56.600 --> 03:18:00.040
but Yatoro is 23 and he's playing for his third ring.

03:18:00.040 --> 03:18:09.160
You're making me feel old. I mean it's amazing, he is one of the best offlaners of our time

03:18:09.160 --> 03:18:14.400
And he is just he is so good. You know the flexibility he has the carry the carry

03:18:14.840 --> 03:18:19.040
Yeah, yeah, I mean your throw is I think the same can be safe for your throw and collapse

03:18:19.040 --> 03:18:24.440
They're both very flexible in how they can play for a team that can be greedy. They can be a team player

03:18:24.520 --> 03:18:29.100
They can be the sacrificial lamb. I think this is what makes it so easy

03:18:29.100 --> 03:18:30.440
You know to be talking about the draft

03:18:30.440 --> 03:18:33.460
Why is it easy to drop in a 40 steam because your players are flexible?

03:18:33.460 --> 03:18:37.000
But sometimes you can say the draft sucks or the draft is not so good

03:18:37.000 --> 03:18:42.400
But you can only work with what you have but if what you have is everything then it's easy to draft

03:18:42.400 --> 03:18:44.400
I mean they actually did a great service to Dota

03:18:44.680 --> 03:18:49.160
Do that yeah, because if they are to win right and they have three ages imagine being a new player

03:18:49.160 --> 03:18:51.480
It's like oh, I gotta win 40 eyes now

03:18:51.520 --> 03:18:56.080
You know you can't just stop after one like when you think about the new kids on the block like here

03:18:56.080 --> 03:18:58.320
Of course in the in the grand finals right spirit

03:18:58.320 --> 03:19:01.120
They are fighting for three time and two time sucks are not anymore

03:19:01.120 --> 03:19:05.240
You just been eliminated all of vision are fighting for their first ages

03:19:05.240 --> 03:19:11.120
Just think about it a visioner to win this ti finals. They've got to go play another one another one

03:19:11.120 --> 03:19:15.560
So it's like we have so many more tears ahead of us. They'll get so many more ages and ring

03:19:15.560 --> 03:19:18.400
You gotta have your whole hand covered. Yeah, sure minimum

03:19:19.560 --> 03:19:21.560
As many tier one events as not me

03:19:23.240 --> 03:19:28.560
No, it is gonna be an epic grand finals best of five is always different and

03:19:29.160 --> 03:19:32.680
Especially for coaches especially for new coaches and yes, I know they've drafted

03:19:32.680 --> 03:19:37.880
have been in best fires many times before a still a different beast that you don't get

03:19:37.880 --> 03:19:43.160
to practice that often, especially not on the main stage of the international. And it will

03:19:43.160 --> 03:19:47.000
be a spectacle. Absolutely. And I think I want to also mean we highlight a lot in T-Spirit

03:19:47.000 --> 03:19:50.240
because we did just see them win and they do have that momentum, but I want to focus

03:19:50.240 --> 03:19:54.960
a little bit on vision here too, because we got in the mid lane no one. If we're talking

03:19:54.960 --> 03:20:00.280
about young players that have many rings, we got to talk about the old timers that

03:20:00.280 --> 03:20:05.720
don't have any and are still here as a core role fighting in that mid lane. Yeah it feels offensive

03:20:05.720 --> 03:20:15.000
to call him old when we are all older than him. He is 28. Oh my god but yes no no one

03:20:15.800 --> 03:20:21.480
is uh has been around for a very long time I think uh us old timers know him best from his

03:20:21.480 --> 03:20:27.480
spin on those pro and this guy was so damn dominant if you haven't seen him like he went

03:20:27.480 --> 03:20:32.500
from being like the best player in the world to just a complete drop off of like

03:20:32.500 --> 03:20:37.080
I you know he's taking a break he's no longer competing for a bit and then he

03:20:37.080 --> 03:20:41.240
starts this ascent again to becoming once more top of the world it's

03:20:41.240 --> 03:20:45.200
unbelievable to go from such a height to to nothing and then back to the height

03:20:45.200 --> 03:20:48.920
again I don't think anyone else has achieved that level in Dota ever it's

03:20:48.920 --> 03:20:52.520
crazy if he gets this TI I think it is the perfect crowning achievement of

03:20:52.520 --> 03:20:55.600
what he has accomplished here I mean what's even more impressive he did

03:20:55.600 --> 03:20:59.080
it on the mid lane. Usually the mid laners, they just get younger, they don't get older,

03:20:59.080 --> 03:21:00.080
they get younger.

03:21:00.080 --> 03:21:05.320
I mean, but also for vision as well, you have no one who is just incredible for the Dota

03:21:05.320 --> 03:21:09.240
community in what he's done for mid lane, but then you have like 9 class who, you know,

03:21:09.240 --> 03:21:13.280
a year ago or 2 years ago, he was a completely different style of POS4. He had to reinvent

03:21:13.280 --> 03:21:17.560
himself, he had to kind of reshape his playstyle, so it's like, a new kid on the

03:21:17.560 --> 03:21:20.080
block and then you have Satanic as well. Like, I don't know, the whole idea of

03:21:20.080 --> 03:21:23.080
this team succeeding is like, you've got Satanic who's going to potentially be

03:21:23.080 --> 03:21:28.520
out your Toro and get his ages where when he was unfortunately kind of crumbling under the pressure

03:21:28.520 --> 03:21:32.680
of the previous TI is like it didn't really work his way like vision has so many different story

03:21:32.680 --> 03:21:38.280
lines that also are so beautiful if they are to succeed. Yeah there's a lot of stories going

03:21:38.280 --> 03:21:43.480
into this best of five grand finals thank you so much for all your thoughts on the lower bracket

03:21:43.480 --> 03:21:49.640
finals that we have completed Team Spirit. They are the ones that will go up against Team Vision

03:21:49.640 --> 03:21:53.800
now they do get a bit of a break. Don't worry, we're not going to make them play straight away,

03:21:53.800 --> 03:21:57.400
even though, you know, from the way they were playing, they probably could have done it. You

03:21:57.400 --> 03:22:02.120
know, they only played two games and it was pretty convincing, but they need some time to prepare

03:22:02.120 --> 03:22:05.720
against Team Vision. It's been waiting in the wings watching the series unfold and I'm sure

03:22:05.720 --> 03:22:10.280
that they have their own plans as well, but they can rest a little bit longer because

03:22:10.280 --> 03:22:15.400
before we get to the grand finals, we're going to have a spectacle of our own on the stage.

03:22:15.400 --> 03:22:19.600
We are going to have the cosplay competition coming your way.

03:22:19.600 --> 03:22:22.480
We're going to have judges involved, of course,

03:22:22.480 --> 03:22:25.200
but the main person you're going to see right now,

03:22:25.200 --> 03:22:27.280
let's head over to Dov.

03:22:28.400 --> 03:22:37.760
Welcome back to the International 2026.

03:22:37.760 --> 03:22:39.600
Next, we're going to give the stage to

03:22:39.600 --> 03:22:43.640
a group of people who are in the real world.

03:22:43.640 --> 03:22:50.760
Up next, we're turning the stage over to the people who bring the world of Dota into life.

03:22:50.760 --> 03:22:55.040
Next, we're going to talk about TI-2020 Cosplay Contest.

03:22:55.040 --> 03:23:04.240
They are the TI-2026 Cosplay Competition presented by SteelSeries and Perfect World Esports.

03:23:04.240 --> 03:23:08.800
Next, we're going to introduce ourselves to the judges of this contest.

03:23:08.800 --> 03:23:13.240
Standing next to me are our judges. Let them introduce themselves.

03:23:13.240 --> 03:23:16.240
Hi everyone, I'm Reeps.

Ray, he is five years Dota 2 content creator.

03:24:38.640 --> 03:24:42.640

03:24:58.640 --> 03:25:08.640
Are you ready to see your favorite heroes come to life?

03:25:08.640 --> 03:25:15.640
Let's go to the number one.

03:25:15.640 --> 03:25:24.640
Let's go to the number one.

03:25:24.640 --> 03:25:27.520
Wow, the first piece is very beautiful.

03:25:27.520 --> 03:25:29.200
It's a little mouse.

03:25:29.200 --> 03:25:32.680
Let's welcome our judges to introduce this piece to us.

03:25:34.040 --> 03:25:35.760
Yashankar's G-Tour Cosplay

03:25:35.760 --> 03:25:37.960
has returned the unique shape of the little mouse.

03:25:37.960 --> 03:25:39.360
Its texture is smooth.

03:25:39.360 --> 03:25:40.640
It is printed on three places.

03:25:40.640 --> 03:25:43.240
It is equipped with hand-made and hand-made colors.

03:25:43.240 --> 03:25:45.040
It is a weapon in the game.

03:25:45.040 --> 03:25:48.640
And behind it, there are three huge square tails.

03:25:48.640 --> 03:25:50.640
It uses internal support structure

03:25:50.640 --> 03:25:52.480
to keep the shape of the tail

03:25:52.480 --> 03:25:54.120
naturally.

03:25:54.120 --> 03:25:57.280
The first coser is Jensen Cabrera.

03:25:57.280 --> 03:26:00.280
Us, Hoodwing, should leave in surgeon.

03:26:00.280 --> 03:26:03.560
Let Lin Jing introduce this work and he just did.

03:26:04.960 --> 03:26:05.760
Do you like this one?

03:26:05.760 --> 03:26:08.120
Do you like this one?

03:26:13.320 --> 03:26:18.800
Okay, let's move to the next cosplayer.

03:26:18.800 --> 03:26:25.800
Who is this? Please, Ray.

03:26:48.800 --> 03:27:02.800
This model is completed by 3D printing combined with EDA form board for curving and splicing.

03:27:03.800 --> 03:27:08.800
Alright, let's move to the next one.

03:27:12.800 --> 03:27:17.800
Can you tell who is this?

03:27:18.800 --> 03:27:21.920
Here we have Nika Lockhart as Dawnbreaker.

03:27:21.920 --> 03:27:24.320
This outfit took a whole year to make.

03:27:24.320 --> 03:27:26.200
She built 28 lights into it,

03:27:26.200 --> 03:27:28.360
which requires 20 meters of wires

03:27:28.360 --> 03:27:30.920
that are all hidden underneath the armor.

03:27:30.920 --> 03:27:33.880
This costume posed a lot of challenges,

03:27:33.880 --> 03:27:36.800
and Nika overcame them excellently.

03:27:48.800 --> 03:27:51.800
破曉星辰 星辰使者

03:27:56.800 --> 03:27:59.800
接下来让我们来看一下我们下一位作品

03:27:59.800 --> 03:28:01.800
Let's move to the next one

03:28:07.800 --> 03:28:10.800
大家还没有给我们带来的这个作品也是非常精致

03:28:10.800 --> 03:28:14.800
它这套作品呢 均为手工制作及上色

03:28:14.800 --> 03:28:19.800
The cat's name is made of metal, and it's made of metal.

03:28:19.800 --> 03:28:24.300
The cat's eyes are made of a small piece of paper.

03:28:24.300 --> 03:28:28.300
The wings are also made of mechanical structure, which can move freely.

03:28:28.300 --> 03:28:30.800
Can we see more movement from you?

03:28:30.800 --> 03:28:35.300
Can we see some of the other moves in this movie?

03:28:35.300 --> 03:28:36.300
Thank you!

03:28:37.300 --> 03:28:41.800
Alright, what we see right now is Wilo. Dark Wilo.

03:28:41.800 --> 03:28:51.800
This work is head-made, the cat under the hat part is made of 3D printing, the wings are added with a mechanical structure to allow flexible flapping.

03:28:52.800 --> 03:28:56.800
Very cute, this is so cute, let's move to the next one.

03:29:26.800 --> 03:29:30.120
I hope through his unique white snake theme and clothing design,

03:29:30.120 --> 03:29:33.800
he can show the Chinese characteristics of TR-2026 Dongdaoism.

03:29:34.800 --> 03:29:37.960
Wow, this is the NPC.

03:29:37.960 --> 03:29:40.880
Wow, I can tell immediately. It's so classic.

03:29:40.880 --> 03:29:44.760
This work includes over a thousand real snake scales.

03:29:44.760 --> 03:29:49.520
The coser, Yumaki, he tried to make it have more theme of Chinese,

03:29:49.520 --> 03:29:52.400
so we can see the white snake underneath.

03:29:56.800 --> 03:30:03.800
Let's go to the next one.

03:30:03.800 --> 03:30:07.800
Here we have Shambalos as Omni Knight.

03:30:07.800 --> 03:30:12.800
He completed this whole work in just 45 days. I don't know how.

03:30:12.800 --> 03:30:21.800
And the service Jesus of the Armors to seal the faces and figures are all sculpted by his own hands.

03:30:21.800 --> 03:30:25.800
Next, we see this set of full-fledged knights.

03:30:25.800 --> 03:30:29.800
I've never seen this set before. It's really beautiful.

03:30:29.800 --> 03:30:32.800
Especially the bracelet he has in his hand.

03:30:32.800 --> 03:30:36.800
This full-fledged knight used it for 45 days.

03:30:36.800 --> 03:30:38.800
He completed the whole set of cosplays.

03:30:38.800 --> 03:30:41.800
He showed his own creativity and creativity.

03:30:44.800 --> 03:30:46.800
Maybe can he swim the hammer?

03:30:46.800 --> 03:30:49.800
Can you do more movements for us?

03:30:49.800 --> 03:30:52.200
Hey, take a look at our lens!

03:30:56.400 --> 03:30:58.760
Well, I like it! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

03:30:58.760 --> 03:31:01.320
Let's move on to the next cosplayer.

03:31:01.320 --> 03:31:03.200
Let's move to the next cosplayer.

03:31:10.760 --> 03:31:13.000
This is the Labyk we brought to you.

03:31:13.000 --> 03:31:15.640
This work is actually very complex.

03:31:15.640 --> 03:31:37.640
This is Rubik for sure, look at the steps.

03:31:37.640 --> 03:31:41.300
This is Rubik for sure, look at the steps.

03:31:42.140 --> 03:31:45.400
This is the Laby Kotao Drone that we just saw.

03:31:45.400 --> 03:31:50.480
This cosplay has 3 printing, EDA form carving, and LED lights.

03:31:50.480 --> 03:31:52.280
Smoke effects?

03:31:52.280 --> 03:31:53.820
Ooh.

03:31:53.820 --> 03:31:55.420
Ooh, I can see it.

03:31:56.360 --> 03:32:00.420
Dear viewers, can you see the smoke effect on his weapon?

03:32:03.460 --> 03:32:04.960
It's very beautiful.

03:32:04.960 --> 03:32:30.960
All right, let's move to the next cosplayer.

03:32:30.960 --> 03:32:36.680
This is Legion Commander. The entire set of works took about six months to complete.

03:32:36.680 --> 03:32:43.400
Bully showcasing everything and his idea, the production techniques.

03:32:53.400 --> 03:32:57.960
I know this hero is not the main door, but he is still very beautiful.

03:32:57.960 --> 03:32:59.960
Let's move to the next cut player.

03:33:00.960 --> 03:33:08.900
And here we have Naga Siren by Grafumanka.

03:33:08.900 --> 03:33:15.000
She places great emphasis on hand coloring, on painting, on texturing her materials, including

03:33:15.000 --> 03:33:19.960
imitating forged metal textures and delicate color gradients.

03:33:19.960 --> 03:33:24.400
She has a strong preference for traditional handmade methods, so every component of this

03:33:24.400 --> 03:33:28.800
outfit is handmade and assembled by her.

03:33:28.800 --> 03:33:35.800
I like how she moves. You can tell this is exactly how the hair moves, right?

03:33:58.800 --> 03:34:03.800
Amazing work. Let's move to the next one.

03:34:28.800 --> 03:34:39.440
She made it herself and it's a 10 year daughter to female player

03:34:39.440 --> 03:34:42.840
and this is her 10 self-made daughter to cosplay work.

03:34:42.840 --> 03:34:50.280
The total weight is 15 kilogram and is 15.8 meters of LED light strips.

03:34:53.400 --> 03:34:55.800
15 kilogram.

03:34:58.800 --> 03:35:00.800
All right, that's our last works.

03:35:00.800 --> 03:35:05.800
So we all appreciate the 10 of you who are watching the video.

03:35:05.800 --> 03:35:08.800
Now it's time to reveal the prize.

03:35:08.800 --> 03:35:13.800
I wonder which of you will be the winners?

03:35:13.800 --> 03:35:16.800
All right, that's all the 10 cards that we've already seen.

03:35:16.800 --> 03:35:20.800
Which one is your favorite? Let's go!

03:35:21.800 --> 03:35:22.800
The first one.

03:35:22.800 --> 03:35:32.800
So the first one we are going to introduce is the judges' recommendation.

03:35:32.800 --> 03:35:34.800
Please welcome Ray.

03:35:34.800 --> 03:35:38.800
The work of the judges' recommendation is

03:35:38.800 --> 03:35:43.800
Abuduraynagai's Svan Kangren.

03:35:43.800 --> 03:35:47.800
Ray Rebao, the judges' choice award.

03:35:47.800 --> 03:35:51.800
Congratulations to Abuduraynagai, Sven.

03:36:22.800 --> 03:36:30.800
Everything detailed, combining a glowing wig, oversize the weapon, and full blending system to create a highly striking visual impact.

03:36:30.800 --> 03:36:32.800
Congratulations!

03:36:52.800 --> 03:37:02.800
Yutian Riggs will explain the biggest transformation award of TI-2026.

03:37:02.800 --> 03:37:05.800
It goes to Grapple Mankai's Naga Siren.

03:37:12.800 --> 03:37:18.800
Every single scale is cut and painted with precision, the scale for construction of Naga's signature tail.

03:37:18.800 --> 03:37:23.200
Well, I wish we could see it. Maybe we can get some turn in there.

03:37:23.200 --> 03:37:25.800
Well, oh, you have to wait for pictures.

03:37:25.800 --> 03:37:30.800
The headpiece is impressive as well. The beautifully executed makeup.

03:37:30.800 --> 03:37:35.800
All that convinced the judges that Gratamanka deserves the award for the biggest transformation.

03:37:35.800 --> 03:38:01.400
It's not easy to move with a tail like this.

03:38:01.400 --> 03:38:06.520
And I think she had to leave her device that she has for it upstairs in the room.

03:38:06.520 --> 03:38:08.600
So we'll have to wait for the photos later.

03:38:08.600 --> 03:38:10.040
I'm going to tell you it's amazing.

03:38:31.400 --> 03:38:35.400
Next award is the Best Technique Award.

03:38:48.400 --> 03:38:51.400
Goldy Moon the Legion Commander.

03:39:31.400 --> 03:39:36.280
this balance strict acuity with profound insight into the character.

03:39:36.280 --> 03:39:37.480
Congratulations!

03:39:40.920 --> 03:39:42.800
We have already received three awards.

03:39:42.800 --> 03:39:45.160
I believe everyone is looking forward to this moment.

03:39:45.160 --> 03:39:49.240
That is our TI-226 annual Best Performance Award.

03:39:49.240 --> 03:39:54.240
Only one will be awarded to the highest winner.

03:39:54.240 --> 03:39:58.520
We've seen the impressive winners in three categories,

03:39:58.520 --> 03:40:02.120
But there can only be one best in show.

03:40:02.120 --> 03:40:07.280
This award goes to the cosplayer with the highest overall score.

03:40:07.280 --> 03:40:09.240
Please Reeves.

03:40:09.240 --> 03:40:12.240
The best in show of the TI-2026

03:40:12.240 --> 03:40:16.720
Cosplay Competition presented by SteelSeries in Perfect World.

03:40:16.720 --> 03:40:18.120
Goes to...

03:40:18.120 --> 03:40:20.600
Schimbalus with Omni Knight.

03:40:20.600 --> 03:40:23.080
Congratulations Schimbalus!

03:40:23.080 --> 03:40:33.080
This cosplay unit handcrafted details, impressive construction, and fun electronics.

03:40:33.080 --> 03:40:41.080
Shin is shown high skill in the application of a wide range of techniques, and he is indeed the best in show of TI-15.

03:40:41.080 --> 03:40:42.080
15.

03:40:42.080 --> 03:40:44.680
This cosplay will be the final product of the first year of the competition.

03:40:44.680 --> 03:40:48.680
The color combination with the perfect combination of the two teams

03:40:48.680 --> 03:40:52.280
Shimbolous has used many kinds of high-quality skills

03:40:52.280 --> 03:40:56.680
and has become the best work of the year for TI-2026.

03:40:59.480 --> 03:41:00.880
Yes, we feel you.

03:41:03.080 --> 03:41:05.680
Okay, once again, congratulations to all the winners

03:41:05.680 --> 03:41:08.880
and thank you to every cosplay room for their wonderful work.

03:41:08.880 --> 03:41:14.160
Congratulations once again to all of our winners and huge thank you to every cosplayer.

03:41:25.200 --> 03:41:31.120
We've just seen Dota brought into life through incredible customers and craftsmanship.

03:41:31.120 --> 03:41:37.760
Now it's time to see Dota brought to life in a different way through cameras, stories,

03:41:37.760 --> 03:41:41.260
and imagination of filmmakers.

03:41:41.260 --> 03:41:45.760
接下来舞台交给你 Take it over, slaps!

03:41:49.760 --> 03:41:50.760
Thank you.

03:41:50.760 --> 03:41:55.760
For 15 years, the Dota 2 International has acted as a showcase

03:41:55.760 --> 03:42:00.760
to find its teams and players from around the world.

03:42:00.760 --> 03:42:01.760
That isn't it.

03:42:01.760 --> 03:42:06.260
Now TI is a place for the community to come together.

03:42:06.260 --> 03:42:11.380
for making signs in the arena to draft in some dank memes to post honey air in it

03:42:11.380 --> 03:42:18.180
and spending thousands of hours on incredible cosplays like the ones we saw here today.

03:42:18.180 --> 03:42:25.220
These are all ways that the Dota community shows us their passion, drive and love for this game.

03:42:25.780 --> 03:42:31.940
Now for the last 10 years the Dota 2 short film contest has been another way for fans to

03:42:31.940 --> 03:42:36.420
celebrate the community and show their love for Dota right here on the main

03:42:36.420 --> 03:42:42.620
stage. So many talented people have come together to participate in this contest

03:42:42.620 --> 03:42:48.300
over the last decade and we thought it might be a little fun to talk to some

03:42:48.300 --> 03:42:53.220
of the finalists and get a backstage look at what it takes to make it here

03:42:53.220 --> 03:42:54.620
to the international.

03:42:57.460 --> 03:42:58.780
Hi, I'm Genevieve Sly.

03:42:58.780 --> 03:43:00.740
My name is Nicholas Cundish-Zell.

03:43:00.740 --> 03:43:01.700
My name is Amorio.

03:43:01.700 --> 03:43:04.660
And my name is Pamela and I'm more known as Meira.

03:43:04.660 --> 03:43:06.620
Hello, my name is Kevin Seary.

03:43:06.620 --> 03:43:08.300
Hi, I'm Dilpatu.

03:43:08.300 --> 03:43:09.980
My name is Shaylin Ham.

03:43:09.980 --> 03:43:11.860
My name is Mikhail Pajomo.

03:43:11.860 --> 03:43:13.460
And I'm Sam Seary.

03:43:13.460 --> 03:43:15.060
Hi, my name is Lawrence.

03:43:15.060 --> 03:43:17.060
I'm known online as Linger.

03:43:17.060 --> 03:43:21.940
And in 2015, I won the very first short film contest

03:43:21.940 --> 03:43:23.660
with an entry called the Kolan.

03:43:27.020 --> 03:43:28.900
I submitted the award in 2017.

03:43:34.420 --> 03:43:37.980
I won the short term contest with at any cost in 2024.

03:43:43.620 --> 03:43:49.140
I participated in 2022 with the new Skolan Hill and I wait for me.

03:43:49.140 --> 03:44:00.820
I submitted in the 2022 short film competition.

03:44:00.820 --> 03:44:11.980
My video was called Low Purity Story, and it was about my dog playing Dorax.

03:44:11.980 --> 03:44:16.380
I won the first place last year with the work of cinema.

03:44:41.980 --> 03:44:43.460
I love playing the music.

03:44:43.460 --> 03:44:47.140
I love making something that people have fun with.

03:44:47.140 --> 03:44:49.820
Like, I love making something that makes people happy.

03:44:49.820 --> 03:44:53.580
As a form of storytelling, I think it has to be something that's very powerful.

03:44:53.580 --> 03:44:58.100
And when you express it artistically, whether that's animation or drawing or music,

03:44:58.100 --> 03:45:00.620
someone else is going to be touched and someone else is going to relate.

03:45:00.620 --> 03:45:02.500
And when they tell you they feel the same way,

03:45:02.500 --> 03:45:04.700
it's going to be this magical moment for you.

03:45:04.700 --> 03:45:09.020
When I got to know about the short film Contest, I just had to jump in.

03:45:09.020 --> 03:45:25.020
The first time that I saw the short film contest was in 2016, and seeing like the amazing quality videos that they were putting out there made me really inspired and I felt like, okay, I gotta try next year.

03:45:25.020 --> 03:45:32.020
When I found out about the Dota 2 short film contest, I was like, this is it, this is, this is much better.

03:45:32.020 --> 03:45:36.020
This was honestly my first kind of animation for a project.

03:45:36.020 --> 03:45:43.020
I submitted many times. I remember my first submission sucked.

03:45:43.020 --> 03:45:49.020
I don't care if it sucks. Ever since I heard Tim Versailles' voice, it just had this intense need to animate him.

03:45:49.020 --> 03:45:54.020
I just want to show the world what I see and I hear his voice.

03:45:54.020 --> 03:45:58.020
It's great to be back! Well, that's what I tell people anyway.

03:45:58.020 --> 03:46:03.020
I had no experience whatsoever in animation, especially in Source Run Maker,

03:46:03.020 --> 03:46:08.420
but I tried my best to learn it as much as I could so every single year I was trying to improve.

03:46:08.420 --> 03:46:11.420
The process was hard. It was pretty hard.

03:46:11.420 --> 03:46:14.820
Because it's all in your head and you know what you want to put out,

03:46:14.820 --> 03:46:17.820
but not everyone will understand what you're trying to tell.

03:46:17.820 --> 03:46:22.020
And the hardest thing to get better at was definitely directing

03:46:22.020 --> 03:46:25.820
and finding a way to tell a story in one minute and a half.

03:46:25.820 --> 03:46:29.820
Just like anything else, you need a plan, a draft, a sketch.

03:46:29.820 --> 03:46:33.300
So you have to really think about what's going to be my story.

03:46:33.300 --> 03:46:37.060
Am I going to make it comedy or drama or action?

03:46:37.060 --> 03:46:41.620
From makeup to wardrobe to the director, the producers,

03:46:41.620 --> 03:46:45.300
or if you need a PA or if you need production designer, set dressers.

03:46:45.300 --> 03:46:47.820
And for me, even though you're so exhausted,

03:46:47.820 --> 03:46:52.660
I have that feeling of just knowing that this is exactly what I would want to do.

03:46:52.660 --> 03:46:54.940
I wouldn't rather do anything else.

03:46:54.940 --> 03:46:56.620
I'm the voice of the song.

03:46:56.620 --> 03:47:01.080
A rock and a pole, best friends forever.

03:47:01.080 --> 03:47:04.120
Super simple and elementary, but it was cool to be like,

03:47:04.120 --> 03:47:05.920
oh, I wrote that.

03:47:05.920 --> 03:47:09.120
Tiny and I, I would say, brought us closer together.

03:47:09.120 --> 03:47:11.600
We got married two years later after the video.

03:47:11.600 --> 03:47:14.040
And I love you.

03:47:14.040 --> 03:47:17.880
I created several short films for the short film contest,

03:47:17.880 --> 03:47:21.720
which for me was one of the biggest moments, I think,

03:47:21.720 --> 03:47:24.840
in my entire creative career, where for the first time,

03:47:24.840 --> 03:47:31.000
something that I made was put on a big screen and millions of people watched it at one point in time.

03:47:31.000 --> 03:47:37.640
Seeing your video inside the game client layer and all your friends are watching and people

03:47:37.640 --> 03:47:43.400
are adding you to their friend lists, people I don't know, it was just fun.

03:47:43.400 --> 03:47:49.560
When they chose me as the finalist, I was like, oh my god, I just could not believe it.

03:47:49.560 --> 03:47:54.200
Hearing my name, hearing the title of the video was really something that

03:47:54.200 --> 03:47:55.640
I'll never forget really.

03:47:55.640 --> 03:47:58.600
I was just like jumping and screaming.

03:47:58.600 --> 03:48:00.600
I was super, super happy, super, super excited.

03:48:00.600 --> 03:48:02.360
I remember watching a lot of reaction videos

03:48:02.360 --> 03:48:05.160
from people who were watching the award for the first time

03:48:05.160 --> 03:48:07.080
and just really laughing at it.

03:48:07.080 --> 03:48:10.280
And that just brought me a lot of joy, you know.

03:48:10.280 --> 03:48:12.040
That was a beautiful moment for me.

03:48:12.040 --> 03:48:15.400
It kind of made my family proud of me.

03:48:16.040 --> 03:48:18.680
I live in a small village in a rural area.

03:48:19.320 --> 03:48:23.000
I sit just a couple of guys and the whole thing spread.

03:48:24.200 --> 03:48:37.960
community. And people now know that I have a youth channel. I got kind of famous in my community.

03:48:37.960 --> 03:48:42.440
I was on my bed still, like I was watching my bed. And then I heard you saying that.

03:48:42.440 --> 03:48:48.040
And then I was like so fucking happy. I started like banging my bed with my hand.

03:48:48.040 --> 03:48:51.240
That was an incredibly validating moment for me as a creator.

03:48:51.240 --> 03:48:56.040
And to that I do credit a lot of my background with the Short Film Contest.

03:48:56.040 --> 03:49:02.040
The Short Film Contest, all the years that I've submitted, they've changed my life in so many different ways.

03:49:02.040 --> 03:49:08.840
These competitions have changed my life, and it became clear that my career would continue to move in any direction.

03:49:08.840 --> 03:49:15.840
Right after my first participation in this competition, I was able to find a job in the studio.

03:49:15.840 --> 03:49:21.840
After short film, I was blessed to work with as many tournament organizers as there is in the Dota scene,

03:49:21.840 --> 03:49:24.840
so I had a chance to work with PGL, ESL, BLAST.

03:49:24.840 --> 03:49:28.840
For PGL, for instance, I worked on those animations that you guys see,

03:49:28.840 --> 03:49:32.840
like the draft animations where the heroes pop up during the draft phase.

03:49:32.840 --> 03:49:37.840
And definitely, like, the craziest thing that I've ever worked on was this year's TI,

03:49:37.840 --> 03:49:42.840
so the embroidery theme, the opening ceremony that you guys see.

03:49:42.840 --> 03:49:47.160
Now I've been working with animations for like 10 years,

03:49:47.160 --> 03:49:50.600
which is something that I never imagined I would do.

03:49:50.600 --> 03:49:55.600
After the film contest, I've gone on to continue my career

03:49:55.800 --> 03:49:59.480
in character design and previously I've worked on

03:49:59.480 --> 03:50:03.080
The Wild Robot as a star artist and a character designer

03:50:03.080 --> 03:50:06.080
and currently DreamWorks feature animation.

03:50:06.080 --> 03:50:08.240
A new movie I have been working on

03:50:08.240 --> 03:50:10.720
is coming out called The Forgotten Island

03:50:10.720 --> 03:50:14.240
and I was a character designer and star artist on that as well.

03:50:14.240 --> 03:50:17.080
My advice for someone starting out in the creative space

03:50:17.080 --> 03:50:19.400
for something like Dota 2, I just do it.

03:50:19.400 --> 03:50:22.080
Please, please, please get over your anxiety

03:50:22.080 --> 03:50:24.000
of making something that sucks,

03:50:24.000 --> 03:50:25.840
because you can rest assured

03:50:25.840 --> 03:50:27.080
that the next thing that you're gonna make

03:50:27.080 --> 03:50:28.120
is gonna be even better.

03:50:28.120 --> 03:50:30.800
So my best advice is just make something.

03:50:30.800 --> 03:50:33.360
Make something, make it as best as you can,

03:50:33.360 --> 03:50:35.600
put it out in the world and then make your next thing

03:50:35.600 --> 03:50:37.160
because the next thing is gonna be better.

03:50:37.160 --> 03:50:41.560
And trust me, three years after that very first video,

03:50:41.560 --> 03:50:43.280
you're gonna be happy you hit that button.

03:50:43.280 --> 03:50:46.200
Working in the animation is just being surrounded

03:50:46.200 --> 03:50:49.160
by a community of nerds like me.

03:50:49.160 --> 03:50:50.880
Dota is this wonderful heritage for us

03:50:50.880 --> 03:50:54.160
because it's come from a very bottom up place.

03:50:54.160 --> 03:50:56.200
It's very grassroots.

03:50:56.200 --> 03:50:58.520
It's been built by the effort of the community

03:50:58.520 --> 03:50:59.680
and the love of the community.

03:50:59.680 --> 03:51:01.280
And that includes not just the game,

03:51:01.280 --> 03:51:03.880
but the community around it that's making the art.

03:51:03.880 --> 03:51:09.440
So, all I have to say is thank you.

03:51:09.440 --> 03:51:14.160
Thank you so much to the community for inspiring me and so many others over the last 10 years.

03:51:14.160 --> 03:51:15.160
Thank you for your support.

03:51:15.160 --> 03:51:19.000
I know that it wouldn't be the same without the players, but it wouldn't be the same without

03:51:19.000 --> 03:51:20.000
the creators.

03:51:20.000 --> 03:51:22.960
You guys mean the world to everybody else involved.

03:51:22.960 --> 03:51:29.360
Thank you very much for supporting the game and for supporting our work.

03:51:29.360 --> 03:51:30.360
Congratulations.

03:51:30.360 --> 03:51:31.360
Congratulations.

03:51:31.360 --> 03:51:32.360
Congratulations.

03:51:32.360 --> 03:51:33.360
Congrats.

03:51:33.360 --> 03:51:38.360
Congratulations on 10 years of the Short Film Contest.

03:51:42.360 --> 03:51:43.360
Thank you so much.

03:51:45.360 --> 03:51:50.360
Now, besides just introducing you to some of the real people behind the winning films,

03:51:50.360 --> 03:51:56.360
we wanted to celebrate the first 10 years of the Dota 2 Short Film Contest.

03:51:56.360 --> 03:52:00.360
We had a little something different for its 10-year anniversary.

03:52:00.360 --> 03:52:06.200
We asked all of the finalists to come together and craft something special for you

03:52:06.220 --> 03:52:12.860
We wanted to make something for the game that we all love and touch upon some of the most memorable moments from the

03:52:13.120 --> 03:52:18.480
International over its last 15 years that we all share. Hope you guys enjoy

03:52:18.480 --> 03:52:37.360
Often I am asked, what does a hero truly need?

03:52:37.360 --> 03:52:41.000
Much depends upon the hero.

03:52:41.000 --> 03:52:43.000
Would you be swift?

03:52:43.000 --> 03:52:45.000
For you I have speed beyond measure

03:53:04.840 --> 03:53:09.640
I'm the best did you see that now it was the play from

03:53:09.640 --> 03:53:12.140
I'm TI2 nozzle. Black hole!

03:53:12.140 --> 03:53:12.840
Okay.

03:53:12.840 --> 03:53:14.740
It's like the most famous play ever.

03:53:14.740 --> 03:53:15.440
Okay.

03:53:15.440 --> 03:53:18.640
Speaking of famous plays, TI3 had a pretty good one.

03:53:20.540 --> 03:53:21.140
Okay.

03:53:27.440 --> 03:53:29.640
Would you be strong?

03:53:29.640 --> 03:53:34.140
Then I can grant you the might to overpower any foe.

03:54:09.640 --> 03:54:12.640
Oh, all this lifetime!

03:54:15.140 --> 03:54:20.640
Tiny and like an attendant-anchor

03:54:20.640 --> 03:54:22.140
Oh my god!

03:54:22.140 --> 03:54:27.140
A rock and a wolf, best friends forever

03:54:27.140 --> 03:54:29.640
That means we get blown up!

03:54:29.640 --> 03:54:31.640
I can't take this anymore!

03:54:31.640 --> 03:54:34.640
All right, all right, focus my son, focus!

03:54:34.640 --> 03:54:36.640
Everyone called me crazy.

03:54:36.640 --> 03:54:38.640
When I said hamsters could learn Dota.

03:54:38.640 --> 03:54:40.640
But who's laughing now?

03:54:40.640 --> 03:54:43.640
You have learned all you can about being a rat!

03:54:43.640 --> 03:54:45.640
Just pick nature's profit and...

03:54:45.640 --> 03:54:48.640
No! Not again! Please!

03:54:48.640 --> 03:54:50.640
Would you be wise?

03:54:50.640 --> 03:54:54.640
Then come closer and I will unlock your inner coming!

03:54:57.640 --> 03:54:59.640
Engaging!

03:55:00.640 --> 03:55:02.640
Open fire!

03:55:03.640 --> 03:55:05.640
Oh my God!

03:55:08.640 --> 03:55:15.000
Mega creeps inbound, EG with their last chance, can they hold?

03:55:15.000 --> 03:55:20.200
Here we go, heist, heist, heist going in, shadowing with the daggin, it's not doing much, but the

03:55:20.200 --> 03:55:26.760
other daggin's a triple daggin's, Tipper saw he's dead, they might be able to do this,

03:55:26.760 --> 03:55:31.760
To my great beyond point, he's going in, EJ with the impossible combat!

03:55:40.760 --> 03:55:42.760
What does a hero truly mean?

03:55:48.760 --> 03:55:50.760
That is for you to decide.

03:55:56.760 --> 03:56:24.240
10 years of the Short Film Contest, 15 different internationals, one yet still to claim who

03:56:24.240 --> 03:56:30.400
will be the champion for it. And it is this one in Shanghai right now. We're looking at our grandfiles.

03:56:30.400 --> 03:56:35.680
Only two teens stand at the test of time and have the chance to be able to get up there and lift

03:56:35.680 --> 03:56:40.880
the ages. And how far we've all come since the first international? You yourself,

03:56:40.880 --> 03:56:46.080
Insania, having your cameo in the short film celebration there. And how far you've come

03:56:46.080 --> 03:56:49.760
as a player too? Yeah, I mean, it brings back memories the last time I was in Shanghai for

03:56:49.760 --> 03:56:52.520
for TI9 and, you know, the unfortunate moment

03:56:52.520 --> 03:56:54.000
with the gyrocopter.

03:56:54.000 --> 03:56:57.760
But, I mean, it's honestly an amazing tournament

03:56:57.760 --> 03:57:00.400
and even that moment was life-changing in many ways.

03:57:00.400 --> 03:57:03.400
You, I got to see my teammates and how they truly feel

03:57:03.400 --> 03:57:06.360
in a moment where you need them more than anything.

03:57:06.360 --> 03:57:08.720
So like for me, that moment reminds me

03:57:08.720 --> 03:57:11.120
of very good things, very good memories.

03:57:11.120 --> 03:57:13.160
And someone that we need more than ever.

03:57:13.160 --> 03:57:16.240
Effie, you've been to so many TI finals as a panelist.

03:57:16.240 --> 03:57:18.920
How does it feel to be seeing one in Shanghai now?

03:57:18.920 --> 03:57:29.080
It's just so special. There are no words. Just from the Dota today to the cosplay contests to watching that short film everything is so beautiful. It's the perfect celebration of this game in this community.

03:57:29.720 --> 03:57:33.400
And Quinn, you self you've played in many of TI finals too to be exact.

03:57:33.960 --> 03:57:46.800
Yeah, it's just an incredibly special occasion. It means so much to me and to so many people. It's a celebration of the game and that's why I love things like that piece so much that we get to see the history of not just the players but the people that make the game so special.

03:57:46.800 --> 03:57:49.480
when I see the Dota 2 reporter, my like eyes light up.

03:57:49.480 --> 03:57:50.480
I'm watching with my brother.

03:57:50.480 --> 03:57:52.200
Remember, even when he didn't play Dota,

03:57:52.200 --> 03:57:53.200
watching and enjoying it.

03:57:53.200 --> 03:57:54.960
So it's something I gotta find so special.

03:57:54.960 --> 03:57:56.480
And I just love to be a part of this community

03:57:56.480 --> 03:57:57.480
and the celebration.

03:57:57.480 --> 03:58:00.280
I mean, today is by far one of the most emotional days

03:58:00.280 --> 03:58:02.360
that exists in the season of Dota.

03:58:02.360 --> 03:58:03.960
It's our final day of TI.

03:58:03.960 --> 03:58:06.040
And we're on to our last best of five.

03:58:06.040 --> 03:58:07.840
Yeah, our last series that we're gonna get.

03:58:07.840 --> 03:58:09.320
Looking at the grand final now.

03:58:09.320 --> 03:58:10.720
And it's so hard to pick

03:58:10.720 --> 03:58:12.400
who is gonna come out on top.

03:58:12.400 --> 03:58:15.760
Vision have looked by far one of the best teams.

03:58:15.760 --> 03:58:19.100
They haven't dropped a single series in their TI 15 run,

03:58:19.100 --> 03:58:20.640
while they've been pushed to the limits.

03:58:20.640 --> 03:58:22.240
On the other hand, you have a spirit

03:58:22.240 --> 03:58:24.200
who thrived with their backs against the walls,

03:58:24.200 --> 03:58:27.240
who have loved to do this lower bracket run in a way.

03:58:27.240 --> 03:58:30.720
I mean, coming into this vision where the team to beat,

03:58:30.720 --> 03:58:32.480
they were the team everyone was watching,

03:58:32.480 --> 03:58:34.640
everyone was studying, everyone was afraid of.

03:58:34.640 --> 03:58:35.800
And as the tournament progressed,

03:58:35.800 --> 03:58:37.760
that very much was the case.

03:58:37.760 --> 03:58:40.040
They completely bulldozed through it.

03:58:40.040 --> 03:58:43.080
But on the other hand, you have the TI team

03:58:43.080 --> 03:58:44.200
in Team Spirit.

03:58:44.200 --> 03:58:46.320
It doesn't matter how they do throughout the year.

03:58:46.320 --> 03:58:48.840
If they show up at TI, they're absolutely

03:58:48.840 --> 03:58:52.560
going to show up as the anime protagonists who are here to cook.

03:58:52.560 --> 03:58:54.920
And Spirit, I feel like, is a different beast when you play them.

03:58:54.920 --> 03:58:56.600
We saw them match up earlier in the tournament,

03:58:56.600 --> 03:58:58.680
and that was an upper bracket round two.

03:58:58.680 --> 03:59:01.360
I think at this point, they've had so many series

03:59:01.360 --> 03:59:02.560
to figure out their draft.

03:59:02.560 --> 03:59:04.520
They've had so many series to iron out the kinks

03:59:04.520 --> 03:59:07.440
in their gameplay and just get everything on the same page.

03:59:07.440 --> 03:59:09.840
And you can tell by the fact that almost all their last series

03:59:09.840 --> 03:59:11.280
in the tournament are two Oaks.

03:59:11.280 --> 03:59:15.280
it's actually crazy to look at

03:59:15.280 --> 03:59:16.280
spirit's matchups here one.

03:59:16.280 --> 03:59:17.280
They've played significantly

03:59:17.280 --> 03:59:19.280
more best of threes, but the

03:59:19.280 --> 03:59:21.280
only two teams in which they've

03:59:21.280 --> 03:59:23.280
lost these best of threes to is

03:59:23.280 --> 03:59:25.280
vision enigma Galaxy and they

03:59:25.280 --> 03:59:27.280
lost twice division in that group

03:59:27.280 --> 03:59:29.280
stage to be the first four and

03:59:29.280 --> 03:59:31.280
only four and team and of course

03:59:31.280 --> 03:59:32.280
that upper bracket best of three

03:59:32.280 --> 03:59:33.280
that they had just a couple of

03:59:33.280 --> 03:59:35.280
days ago to. Yeah, the first

03:59:35.280 --> 03:59:37.280
one to zero the second one to

03:59:37.280 --> 03:59:39.280
one and third will have to wait

03:59:39.280 --> 03:59:40.280
and see but I think that

03:59:40.280 --> 03:59:43.880
top and they've stayed at the

03:59:44.040 --> 03:59:44.720
top. No one has been able to

03:59:44.720 --> 03:59:45.880
touch them. Evidence by the

03:59:45.880 --> 03:59:46.880
record, but spirit. They

03:59:46.880 --> 03:59:47.880
started down here and they're

03:59:47.880 --> 03:59:49.080
arcing up towards spirit,

03:59:49.080 --> 03:59:50.280
hurtling at them like a

03:59:50.280 --> 03:59:51.280
speeding bullet that we know

03:59:51.280 --> 03:59:53.280
this terrifying your player

03:59:53.280 --> 03:59:54.280
is. And now it's the

03:59:54.280 --> 03:59:55.280
collision, right? It's the

03:59:55.280 --> 03:59:56.280
team that's been on top versus

03:59:56.280 --> 03:59:57.280
the team that's charging

03:59:57.280 --> 03:59:58.280
towards them and what happens

03:59:58.280 --> 04:00:00.280
when they meet. I'm more

04:00:00.280 --> 04:00:01.280
curious than ever. Of course,

04:00:01.280 --> 04:00:02.280
the doter is what we want

04:00:02.280 --> 04:00:03.280
to celebrate and have fun

04:00:03.280 --> 04:00:05.280
with as well. But also what

04:00:05.280 --> 04:00:07.280
form of your tour are we

04:00:07.280 --> 04:00:08.280
going to see? And I don't

04:00:08.280 --> 04:00:09.280
mean what hero is he going

04:00:09.280 --> 04:00:12.280
is the man gonna come out with a shaved head?

04:00:12.280 --> 04:00:14.880
Are we gonna see the run back of a bull toro

04:00:14.880 --> 04:00:17.480
in another TI Grand Finals?

04:00:17.480 --> 04:00:18.320
I hope so.

04:00:18.320 --> 04:00:20.360
I mean, I can tell you, as someone who on stage

04:00:20.360 --> 04:00:22.040
and witnessed the horror first hand,

04:00:22.040 --> 04:00:23.960
seeing my dreams crumble in front of me,

04:00:24.960 --> 04:00:28.080
it's just so iconic, such an epic moment in Dota history.

04:00:28.080 --> 04:00:31.160
And he is, I don't know, for the last six years or so

04:00:31.160 --> 04:00:33.000
has been like the iconic player.

04:00:33.000 --> 04:00:34.880
And so the fact that we're even questioning

04:00:34.880 --> 04:00:37.920
what his hairstyle is going to be for the Grand Finals

04:00:37.920 --> 04:00:44.320
I don't know a testament to how legendary he is and just for context for those who may be tuning into this ti as their first ever ti

04:00:44.320 --> 04:00:47.680
It's horror every time that he has won the international

04:00:47.680 --> 04:00:55.140
He has shown up on the finals day with a shaved head and has just completely unleashed himself upon his enemies as the best carry in

04:00:55.140 --> 04:00:58.640
Ti I believe the quote goes something like a ti 10 he

04:00:59.400 --> 04:01:05.840
Sacrifices hair to the Dora gods. Okay in order to win that final against LgD. So then he did it again in Seattle

04:01:05.840 --> 04:01:12.240
So I mean if he's not bald I will be very sad. I think we could all agree with that one

04:01:12.240 --> 04:01:13.640
Then I wonder on the flip side

04:01:13.640 --> 04:01:20.120
You know it does that play into visions mentality at all because for every single member of that five stack

04:01:20.120 --> 04:01:25.560
They have not listed and ages for many of them actually they've never made it to a TI grand final

04:01:25.560 --> 04:01:29.200
I think about last year for vision how close they were they were having this

04:01:29.560 --> 04:01:33.200
extremely dominant game three in the lower bracket final and

04:01:33.200 --> 04:01:41.380
and those the lead slips away from them slowly, but surely they sink in the reality that we don't have control of this game.

04:01:41.380 --> 04:01:47.980
And unfortunately, that's where their previous TI run ended. Top three. Now it's secured at least top two, but they won't be happy with that one.

04:01:47.980 --> 04:01:54.160
Yeah, it's a totally different beast. And I think it's something you dream about for so long so that when it finally becomes tangible,

04:01:54.160 --> 04:01:58.560
it becomes in your grasp, even the idea of being in a grand finals is so distant. There's so many series.

04:01:58.560 --> 04:02:01.120
There's so many steps along the way that you can't really focus on that.

04:02:01.120 --> 04:02:03.680
And so then when you're suddenly there because you're focusing on the moment

04:02:03.680 --> 04:02:07.760
you've been focusing on the journey while now it's suddenly it's very real and it's

04:02:07.760 --> 04:02:11.680
quite an overwhelming feeling to go through. And so I hope for them they're able to

04:02:11.680 --> 04:02:14.800
to steal themselves and actually focus on the gameplay and not let the

04:02:14.800 --> 04:02:16.800
sort of the grandeur of the moment overwhelm them.

04:02:17.520 --> 04:02:21.920
Looking at all the TI appearances of the roster as well, we've included the coach because

04:02:21.920 --> 04:02:27.360
Poppy has a little bit of a fantasy or fairytale for himself. Everyone talked about how

04:02:27.360 --> 04:02:30.480
He got that fourth place. He got that third place at the next TI.

04:02:30.480 --> 04:02:34.080
He got second place all the way back at Singapore in TI 11.

04:02:34.080 --> 04:02:36.880
And we go, okay, this is it. The next TI is puppies.

04:02:36.880 --> 04:02:38.240
But there was the caveat.

04:02:38.240 --> 04:02:41.600
Maybe it was the next TI puppy attended was going to be his first place.

04:02:42.480 --> 04:02:44.880
I mean, yeah, that's the script.

04:02:44.880 --> 04:02:46.400
And that's what it's saying for them, right?

04:02:46.400 --> 04:02:48.080
Puppy is supposed to win this TI.

04:02:48.080 --> 04:02:51.200
That's like, if the script does exist

04:02:51.200 --> 04:02:54.800
and many tournaments has made it seem like there is a script,

04:02:54.800 --> 04:02:55.840
then it should be puppies.

04:02:55.840 --> 04:03:12.840
Yeah, puppy. It's not an exaggeration to say he's one of the greatest players to ever touch Dota. He's been so consistent throughout his career. He's had so many definitive ideas as a captain. And at this stage in Dota it feels like such a natural transition for him to come into the international as a coach.

04:03:12.840 --> 04:03:18.780
And we've already seen the results of him as a coach on team vision. He came in he whipped them into shape

04:03:18.780 --> 04:03:22.640
He took five of the best players in the world and turned them into the best team in the world

04:03:22.640 --> 04:03:25.640
And it just feels like no matter what puppy can do

04:03:25.640 --> 04:03:28.720
He will always have a place in Dota and look at this

04:03:28.720 --> 04:03:34.400
Well the longevity of his career is ridiculous on the other hand he had Miposhka Quinn who is no slouch himself

04:03:34.480 --> 04:03:40.260
Yeah, it's it's it's two Titans really. I think the parallel of puppy coming in whipping in the shape

04:03:40.260 --> 04:03:43.940
I think Moposhka is the same thing. He was not on this team for a solid chunk of time

04:03:43.940 --> 04:03:47.780
and they did not look like themselves. They were in shambles for a big period of that.

04:03:47.780 --> 04:03:51.860
And then Moposhka joins and you slowly see them ramp up to the form that they're in now.

04:03:51.860 --> 04:03:56.260
I think he is such an integral and core part of this team's identity and history.

04:03:56.260 --> 04:03:59.620
And honestly, I think they would not be even close to the same without him.

04:04:00.340 --> 04:04:03.780
He's definitely like made them look more like they used to. And I think

04:04:03.780 --> 04:04:08.580
we had Laurel say it and it's so true that they are now able to play fast and slow.

04:04:08.580 --> 04:04:13.680
And this has been one of the things that's the scariest to go off against because it's quite easy when you're only chasing up

04:04:13.680 --> 04:04:17.780
His one playstyle to try to match and it's the same thing that vision brought up right when they talk to a yandex

04:04:17.780 --> 04:04:23.420
Is that yandex are the king of split pushing but we can split push and team fight and when you have multiple avenues that you can go down

04:04:23.420 --> 04:04:27.660
It just makes the team so much scarier, and that's why I feel like both these coaches have added to the teams

04:04:27.900 --> 04:04:31.940
Yeah to me who push cut and a lot of ways is team spirit

04:04:31.940 --> 04:04:34.900
It felt like his team when they won both of those ages

04:04:34.900 --> 04:04:40.660
And yes, he had a star-studded roster, especially in Yatoro and Collapsus being some of the greatest players ever,

04:04:40.820 --> 04:04:47.340
but he was the player who brought that energy of resilience, that heart, that ability to overcome difficult situations.

04:04:47.340 --> 04:04:51.300
And if you ever watched the way that he interacted with his team and the way that he guided them,

04:04:51.300 --> 04:04:53.100
he was the one lifting their spirits.

04:04:53.100 --> 04:04:56.180
He was the one enabling them to play the late game comeback, Dota.

04:04:56.180 --> 04:04:59.940
And we saw that in all the moments Spirit had roster changes. They brought in new players.

04:04:59.940 --> 04:05:00.940
They had to train them.

04:05:00.940 --> 04:05:04.300
They all had that team spirit energy because of Mifoshka.

04:05:04.300 --> 04:05:08.860
So when he did leave this roster, it did feel like a massive loss and now he's back as a coach

04:05:09.100 --> 04:05:10.780
They're in the TI Grand Finals

04:05:10.780 --> 04:05:14.060
So we were seeing his voice show up in game even though

04:05:14.060 --> 04:05:18.360
He's not there for them and that has been such a pivotal point for spirit here

04:05:18.360 --> 04:05:24.420
And I just love the fact that we're seeing them be spirit of all because we missed out on them on the main stage

04:05:24.420 --> 04:05:27.180
Two ti's in a row. They make it to a main stage

04:05:27.180 --> 04:05:32.700
They drop to a low bracket and they are completely unfazed Quinn. They go. Okay, and yeah

04:05:32.700 --> 04:05:37.100
I think having someone like that for both teams in your corner that we've seen them come back from games

04:05:37.100 --> 04:05:41.660
They drop very unconvincing losses. They lose a game in pretty I don't know drastic fashion

04:05:41.660 --> 04:05:45.020
And a lot of teams would crumble from there your mindset drops your gameplay drops

04:05:45.020 --> 04:05:48.000
So you lose the series but they walk off stage and they've got someone who says hey

04:05:48.000 --> 04:05:52.420
It's okay. These are ideas and you trust them. You really believe they're not just saying it to say it

04:05:52.420 --> 04:05:53.780
They're saying it because it's true

04:05:53.780 --> 04:05:57.260
And you believe that they have the presence and the stature to make you buy into that

04:05:57.260 --> 04:05:59.200
And I think that's what's so special about these players

04:05:59.200 --> 04:06:03.760
and why this would be such an amazing series is that it's not a team on either side that will crumble

04:06:03.760 --> 04:06:06.260
They will hold strong and push until there's nothing left to give

04:06:06.260 --> 04:06:12.840
I think what adds context to how surprising it is that spirited here because if you tune in for ti every year you go

04:06:12.960 --> 04:06:18.460
This is an old roster lineups players that we're expecting to make deep runs

04:06:18.460 --> 04:06:24.380
But this is the one year in which we have not seen spirit win a single tier one event

04:06:24.380 --> 04:06:29.400
Every other TI since that TI 10 run for themselves and even including in that year, right?

04:06:29.400 --> 04:06:32.200
They were able to get an event win for themselves this time around

04:06:32.280 --> 04:06:38.740
Two second places was the best that they were able to do in senior and so they really did I think slip to the wayside in people's minds

04:06:38.740 --> 04:06:43.680
About the potential threat of what they can all be together as a roster. Yeah, I mean, absolutely

04:06:43.680 --> 04:06:48.100
I mean then on the other side you have vision that's been pretty like honestly ever since they got the roster together

04:06:48.100 --> 04:06:53.540
Ever since notice joined arguably the most dominant team of the season and I think everybody coming into TI

04:06:53.540 --> 04:07:00.820
I do what these guys are capable of. So in many ways it is like David versus Goliath, but it's Spirit

04:07:00.980 --> 04:07:05.260
So like it's Goliath vs Goliath and TI Tam. Yeah, exactly. Yeah

04:07:05.540 --> 04:07:09.340
No, I think another really cool thing and it ties back to what you said like TI Tam

04:07:09.340 --> 04:07:14.220
I think is an iconic tournament. It's when Spirit first like came to be the greatest team in the world

04:07:14.220 --> 04:07:18.820
And I know like Team Secret at that tournament coming in they were like the favorites of that year

04:07:18.820 --> 04:07:20.900
they had this super dominant online era and

04:07:20.900 --> 04:07:24.900
And they come to TI, they lose to Spirit in the end.

04:07:24.900 --> 04:07:30.900
In this kind of crazy game with like, I think it's a like and tiny situation going on.

04:07:30.900 --> 04:07:35.900
Anyhow, I'm just rambling. But the reason I bring it up is because we talked to Sumail at some point,

04:07:35.900 --> 04:07:40.900
and I remember he mentioned that he thinks Vision is the most similar team to that secret ever since Puppy's joined.

04:07:40.900 --> 04:07:44.900
So I think for Puppy, this is also like revenge for TI 10.

04:07:44.900 --> 04:07:48.900
And if that TI 10 mattered more than any TI, I think, to most players that were there.

04:07:48.900 --> 04:07:56.180
So for him, I think this moment means everything I'm intrigued to see it play out this way because vision again

04:07:56.180 --> 04:07:58.700
You're talking about it the most dominant team for this year

04:07:58.700 --> 04:08:03.700
We have never seen the most dominant team or the favorite team throughout the year

04:08:03.700 --> 04:08:06.180
Go on to win ti to lift the ages

04:08:06.180 --> 04:08:10.980
They've always fallen slightly short whether it's a second or third not even making it through groups

04:08:10.980 --> 04:08:14.420
So in your eyes if vision were to win ti today

04:08:14.420 --> 04:08:17.900
Would it be the first time in TI history that the favorites have won it?

04:08:17.940 --> 04:08:20.820
That's a good point. I would say that they're an

04:08:21.140 --> 04:08:25.260
exception to this because they were not the most dominant team for the first half of the season.

04:08:25.260 --> 04:08:30.020
They were going through the growing pains of their roster changes. They had a stand-in situation.

04:08:30.020 --> 04:08:32.260
They had all flanar switches for a while.

04:08:32.260 --> 04:08:34.900
Puppy came in as a coach halfway through the season.

04:08:34.900 --> 04:08:41.500
It took a while to wrinkle out a lot of that growing pains and towards the last few months they've been the beast.

04:08:41.500 --> 04:08:49.500
So maybe they can break that curse by peaking at just the right time. It's very reflective because both spirit and vision had to go through

04:08:49.500 --> 04:08:56.500
qualifiers. We always have our direct invites every year and whilst most of those teams place really well for themselves, we have two teams that

04:08:56.500 --> 04:09:04.500
had to fight through the qualifiers to be here Quinn, fight through qualifiers, group stage, upper bracket, lower bracket. You name it, they've done it between the ten of them.

04:09:04.500 --> 04:09:09.940
of them. Yeah I had completely forgotten about that and it is such a crazy and I think it's it's

04:09:09.940 --> 04:09:14.100
very accurate. Marissa is about peaking at the right time and I think this plays a lot into you've

04:09:14.100 --> 04:09:18.020
had a bunch of games you weren't the greatest whenever you know that season was going on that's

04:09:18.020 --> 04:09:21.940
why you weren't invited directly you had to prove your merit in other ways and so that you've

04:09:21.940 --> 04:09:25.380
had to grind you go through these group stage matches and you ramping and ramping and ramping

04:09:25.380 --> 04:09:28.660
that's what you want you don't want to peak too early because that's why we see so many teams

04:09:28.660 --> 04:09:32.660
that are dominant early in the year fall flat later because you can only be so good for so

04:09:32.660 --> 04:09:37.220
It's a nature of competition. It's so difficult to stay on top people are gunning for you constantly

04:09:37.220 --> 04:09:41.680
That's the fact that both teams have time to perfectly whether through luck or through. I don't know some insane

04:09:41.940 --> 04:09:43.340
Pressions that was the Maposh guy

04:09:43.340 --> 04:09:47.900
He's like if I do this and at that time and in this month that we just bring it up and stop playing Lake it

04:09:47.900 --> 04:09:52.860
We've got a voice and they've stolen the stars aligning from another team and now they're here and they're they're informed

04:09:52.860 --> 04:09:56.340
I mean peeking at the right time. Honestly, it's a skill you learn as a team

04:09:56.340 --> 04:10:00.340
It's something that we put a lot of effort into on the foot and I think especially blitz was very

04:10:00.340 --> 04:10:20.340
We need to kind of think about how we put effort into tournaments because there's only so many events that you can actually like put in your 100% in and for TI you definitely want that and you don't want to come into TI feeling like a little bit burnt out, you don't have like that fire and that passion for the game that you would have otherwise.

04:10:20.340 --> 04:10:26.580
I want to take a step back and look at the TI in which both of you two actually came up against each other in the grand finals because

04:10:26.580 --> 04:10:32.480
Aiden you came in through the upper bracket. You guys didn't lose a single game when you came in through the lower bracket

04:10:32.480 --> 04:10:35.780
And so starting with you how does potentially because you're mentioning burner

04:10:35.780 --> 04:10:40.260
How does fatigue of such a long day even though it was a tour a long day play into this

04:10:40.260 --> 04:10:45.720
Where a spirit hoping to be able to pour energy from and ramp up and peak a second time for a finals

04:10:45.740 --> 04:10:49.200
Yeah, it's the hardest part of a lower bracket run and it's not just this day alone

04:10:49.200 --> 04:10:53.040
it's the prior days coming into it. They played two series yesterday. They played a stressful lower

04:10:53.040 --> 04:10:57.280
bracket run and it's not also just the physical fatigue. It's the mental fatigue of all of these

04:10:57.280 --> 04:11:00.880
are elimination series and that weighs on you. There's a stress and a pressure there. Everything

04:11:00.880 --> 04:11:05.200
is on the line and everything can only be on the line so many times before you break. And so

04:11:05.200 --> 04:11:08.560
doing that lower bracket run and getting to the grand finals, they've done it before but it is

04:11:08.560 --> 04:11:13.120
an incredible feat both physically and emotionally completely unrelated to the Dota.

04:11:13.120 --> 04:11:17.680
Yeah, absolutely. And something that is really tough and maybe hard to like relate to

04:11:17.680 --> 04:11:22.400
you've been there is the fact that the day before the grand finals you're also playing a double series day

04:11:22.400 --> 04:11:26.800
and they have the first series of the day into the last series of the day into today again the first

04:11:26.800 --> 04:11:30.880
series of the day and then you get to play another series and this strain over the course of two days

04:11:30.880 --> 04:11:36.400
is crazy tough. Well it's great for them then that they had so many quick two-ohs it feels like

04:11:36.400 --> 04:11:41.760
it feels like the last three rounds for them have just been um all right we're tired let's make

04:11:41.760 --> 04:11:45.760
quick work of this and go home and sleep we've even had a collapse say I've played five hours

04:11:45.760 --> 04:11:50.240
sleep. We're gonna do this fast and they did it really fast yesterday. Well, please

04:11:50.240 --> 04:11:53.600
gotten a little bit more sleep. But, Aiden, is there anything that plays in your mind

04:11:53.600 --> 04:11:57.440
when you're coming in from the upper bracket? Because some people do talk about or allude

04:11:57.440 --> 04:12:01.040
to Spirit have now had two games to warm up for themselves. They're in the group of

04:12:01.040 --> 04:12:04.800
it a little bit more and maybe they're ready that off the rip, they're gonna be playing

04:12:04.800 --> 04:12:08.400
at a tempo that you haven't yet done because you haven't walked out on that stage on

04:12:08.400 --> 04:12:11.680
the side of vision. I think usually when you're in the upper bracket, you have

04:12:11.680 --> 04:12:16.480
this confidence of like we haven't dropped a single game. You're coming into that series thinking like

04:12:16.480 --> 04:12:22.480
we're going to absolutely smash the other team. And I think I wouldn't say it really is a factor in

04:12:22.480 --> 04:12:26.080
that way. I don't think you really care that they're warmed up. You're thinking if anything like

04:12:26.080 --> 04:12:29.440
we've beaten them twice this tournament already, we're going to beat them a third time. It's no

04:12:29.440 --> 04:12:34.640
problem for us. Yeah, it's it's I think that's very true. And I think from the the lower

04:12:34.640 --> 04:12:39.200
bracket, there's a feeling of like proving yourself like you can feel I think them

04:12:39.200 --> 04:12:40.200
you, right? Because they're

04:12:40.200 --> 04:12:41.200
standing on the podium and

04:12:41.200 --> 04:12:42.200
you're walking up the steps as

04:12:42.200 --> 04:12:43.200
they layer down at you. And so

04:12:43.200 --> 04:12:44.200
I think there's very much a

04:12:44.200 --> 04:12:45.200
feeling of like we're going to

04:12:45.200 --> 04:12:46.200
prove you wrong. We'll show you.

04:12:46.200 --> 04:12:47.200
You think you're better than

04:12:47.200 --> 04:12:48.200
us? You think you deserve to

04:12:48.200 --> 04:12:49.200
be there and we don't? Then

04:12:49.200 --> 04:12:50.200
let's let's let's prove it in

04:12:50.200 --> 04:12:52.200
game. Oh that that talking is

04:12:52.200 --> 04:12:54.200
going to happen when we see our

04:12:54.200 --> 04:12:56.200
grand finals there, but it's

04:12:56.200 --> 04:12:57.200
just so insane to think about

04:12:57.200 --> 04:12:59.200
that no one's mentality over

04:12:59.200 --> 04:13:01.200
this last year that we're

04:13:01.200 --> 04:13:02.200
aware of. We're not sure

04:13:02.200 --> 04:13:03.200
how long that this has been a

04:13:03.200 --> 04:13:04.200
shift to him has been so

04:13:04.200 --> 04:13:06.200
much more about the journey

04:13:06.200 --> 04:13:07.200
and ever since then it

04:13:07.200 --> 04:13:08.200
feels like we've seen a

04:13:08.200 --> 04:13:09.720
We've seen a resurgence of him.

04:13:09.720 --> 04:13:14.160
We've seen him back to the no one of all before we saw him do a lot of region

04:13:14.160 --> 04:13:16.200
swapping and all changing.

04:13:16.320 --> 04:13:20.040
And now it is a no one that is consistent, is willing to play whatever role it is.

04:13:20.200 --> 04:13:25.640
And I am so intrigued as to how much progress and how much effort has gone into this.

04:13:25.640 --> 04:13:28.600
And almost the satisfaction that he must have that because of it,

04:13:28.760 --> 04:13:31.160
he is now in a grand final for TI.

04:13:31.160 --> 04:13:34.440
Absolutely. And the thing with the whole it's all about the journey

04:13:34.440 --> 04:13:37.000
is really interesting until you reach the end destination.

04:13:37.000 --> 04:13:39.180
Right now you cannot it can't be all about the journey

04:13:39.180 --> 04:13:43.920
It has to be about this moment and I'm very curious to see how that affects them because if this has been the thing

04:13:43.920 --> 04:13:49.680
That he's been relying on like just enjoy the road enjoy all the steps to get there now that you're here

04:13:49.680 --> 04:13:52.520
Can you stay in that mindset? Can you stay in that idea of like?

04:13:52.520 --> 04:13:57.640
You know there's always next year that we this team is gonna continue on and even though this moment means so much to you

04:13:57.640 --> 04:14:02.900
To not get stuck up on it and not think like this is where we were meant to like end up and this is what it's all about

04:14:02.900 --> 04:14:08.280
of it. Yeah, it's so true and it's so difficult. I remember the same feelings when you finally

04:14:08.280 --> 04:14:13.020
get there. It's very easy. It happened to me to get caught up into what I've always

04:14:13.020 --> 04:14:16.180
dreamed of and then suddenly you start thinking about that and you're not thinking about the

04:14:16.180 --> 04:14:21.980
gameplay and that slips very quickly. And gameplay goes from 99% to 97% and suddenly

04:14:21.980 --> 04:14:26.020
you're making mistakes and things crumble. So it's a slippery slope and I hope that

04:14:26.020 --> 04:14:29.740
he's able to stay in the mindset that's gotten him all the way up to this point.

04:14:29.740 --> 04:14:33.780
that's what we're going to

04:14:33.780 --> 04:14:35.380
talk about. There's a lot

04:14:35.380 --> 04:14:36.780
playing into this, and we've

04:14:36.780 --> 04:14:38.180
mentioned the coaches. The

04:14:38.180 --> 04:14:39.780
impact that they've had on the

04:14:39.780 --> 04:14:41.420
rosters that they have been

04:14:41.420 --> 04:14:42.820
helping come to this grand

04:14:42.820 --> 04:14:44.380
finals. Now we've talked about

04:14:44.380 --> 04:14:45.820
no one's journey for himself,

04:14:45.820 --> 04:14:47.420
but more importantly, something

04:14:47.420 --> 04:14:49.020
that vision really wanted for

04:14:49.020 --> 04:14:50.620
themselves was to see this

04:14:50.620 --> 04:14:52.020
rematch with spirit. They

04:14:52.020 --> 04:14:53.220
wanted to have spirit in the

04:14:53.220 --> 04:14:54.660
grand finals when they secured

04:14:54.660 --> 04:14:55.860
this, but that's something

04:14:55.860 --> 04:14:57.500
DeKalus said and looking at

04:14:57.500 --> 04:14:58.500
satanic your tour. There's a

04:14:58.500 --> 04:14:59.540
lot of different accolades

04:14:59.540 --> 04:15:06.220
when it comes to being out on a TI stage and Satanic has been there once and it wasn't the result he wanted

04:15:06.220 --> 04:15:09.020
It was a top three finish, which is still fantastic last year

04:15:09.020 --> 04:15:13.860
But that's still that element. Is it's gonna be different for him mentally stepping into a grand final?

04:15:14.300 --> 04:15:21.500
Yeah, I mean we have to keep in mind that a lot of these younger players from the EU region grew up watching team spirit

04:15:21.500 --> 04:15:24.060
They watched the miraculous friend that they had at TI 10

04:15:24.060 --> 04:15:29.180
They saw them look the ages and that beautiful story and it's or became the carry player to watch

04:15:29.620 --> 04:15:35.360
Satanic has absolutely molded and shaped himself as a Dota player off of your tour of we called him baby

04:15:35.360 --> 04:15:37.160
It's or over so long and of course

04:15:37.160 --> 04:15:41.740
He's come into his own and stepped into his own as a player developed his own particular play style

04:15:41.780 --> 04:15:44.100
But this was his idol for so long

04:15:44.100 --> 04:15:49.400
So going up against him must mean the world to him and isn't a ti win if you don't beat your idol

04:15:49.400 --> 04:15:54.920
I'm getting a little giddy in my seat because I have just gotten word that if anyone out there is you know

04:15:54.920 --> 04:16:01.680
Jewel screening right now watching the broadcast as well as maybe scrolling on social media team spirit a little bit of a spoiler

04:16:01.920 --> 04:16:03.920
Have posted

04:16:06.760 --> 04:16:08.760
Now we don't know who's here this is

04:16:08.880 --> 04:16:10.840
That has been sacrificed to the Dota gods

04:16:10.840 --> 04:16:16.800
It's all I'm gonna say but there is an inkling as to which player would love to have given that up

04:16:16.800 --> 04:16:24.260
I mean, you talk about King vs Prince, what better situation to try to take the throne

04:16:24.260 --> 04:16:25.760
than vs Baldorro?

04:16:25.760 --> 04:16:27.800
Can you imagine if Satanic comes out?

04:16:27.800 --> 04:16:28.800
And it's...

04:16:28.800 --> 04:16:31.800
They're like in a different set!

04:16:31.800 --> 04:16:32.800
Yeah.

04:16:32.800 --> 04:16:33.800
Do you think?

04:16:33.800 --> 04:16:34.800
No.

04:16:34.800 --> 04:16:35.800
You never know.

04:16:35.800 --> 04:16:36.800
You never know.

04:16:36.800 --> 04:16:37.800
Really?

04:16:37.800 --> 04:16:38.800
You never know.

04:16:38.800 --> 04:16:39.800
I mean, this is...

04:16:39.800 --> 04:16:43.440
I fully agree with Mira's point, and I think it's so cool that it is, but he

04:16:43.440 --> 04:16:47.520
He is his idol and you see that throughout his gameplay, his style, the heroes he plays

04:16:47.520 --> 04:16:51.920
and they've gotten all the way to the grand finals and it really is a thrown, dethroning

04:16:51.920 --> 04:16:52.920
moment.

04:16:52.920 --> 04:16:53.920
Like that is what it is.

04:16:53.920 --> 04:16:57.400
Yutoro is what everyone thinks of the pinnacles carries and so Tanik has risen and risen

04:16:57.400 --> 04:17:00.920
and risen to be in contention for that and now the proof is in the pudding.

04:17:00.920 --> 04:17:01.920
Are you really better?

04:17:01.920 --> 04:17:02.920
Show me.

04:17:02.920 --> 04:17:07.080
Well, looking at the hero pool comparison, there's a lot of common overlapping heroes

04:17:07.080 --> 04:17:10.200
but when it comes to unique heroes, we're not seeing as many come out from

04:17:10.200 --> 04:17:12.440
But there's a caveat to that one insane.

04:17:12.440 --> 04:17:14.640
Remember they haven't played as many series.

04:17:14.640 --> 04:17:16.240
They haven't played as many games,

04:17:16.240 --> 04:17:19.640
but I also think that that is a lot of props to Poppy.

04:17:19.640 --> 04:17:21.680
He's not putting Satanic in a situation

04:17:21.680 --> 04:17:24.720
that you have to reach really deep into your hero pool

04:17:24.720 --> 04:17:26.040
and hopefully get the final pick,

04:17:26.040 --> 04:17:28.200
the last gotcha pick that comes out from our carry.

04:17:28.200 --> 04:17:29.920
It's a stable all round the draft

04:17:29.920 --> 04:17:32.120
and you can just excel in those heroes

04:17:32.120 --> 04:17:33.240
in which we're picking for you.

04:17:33.240 --> 04:17:34.080
Yeah, absolutely.

04:17:34.080 --> 04:17:35.840
And it comes down to the different draft styles

04:17:35.840 --> 04:17:36.680
of the two teams.

04:17:36.680 --> 04:17:38.240
We saw multiple times throughout this tournament

04:17:38.240 --> 04:17:43.240
where Spirit just end up in a position where they're last checking their carry against a team that's also last checking their carry.

04:17:43.240 --> 04:17:46.740
So the maximum amount of bans that can be on carries are being had.

04:17:46.740 --> 04:17:49.540
And I think Yatoro thrives in that position. That's what he wants to be in.

04:17:49.540 --> 04:17:55.040
He wants to abuse the fact that he has a big hero pool and make sure that neither carry is necessarily on their most comfort.

04:17:55.040 --> 04:17:58.240
But I think this is where Satanic can match him. He just hasn't needed to do it yet.

04:17:59.540 --> 04:18:03.740
Looking towards our off-lane is as well because that has been the narrative around vision.

04:18:03.740 --> 04:18:08.620
it felt like they were unsatisfied with their top three last year and things just needed to change.

04:18:08.620 --> 04:18:12.620
They ended up bringing in puppy as their new coach, but obviously noticed now joining them as

04:18:12.620 --> 04:18:18.860
they're off-laner as well. And it was a departure of DM with a stand-in of SSS and once noticed

04:18:18.860 --> 04:18:24.140
between that free agent from Yandex they brought him over into vision here and we're looking

04:18:24.140 --> 04:18:29.420
at him. He is not necessarily a same player in the way that collapses despite us seeing

04:18:29.420 --> 04:18:34.860
a similar hero pool up the top there. It is just so different in how they can engage for

04:18:34.860 --> 04:18:37.580
their team and what they can offer in terms of stability.

04:18:37.580 --> 04:18:44.100
Yeah, from noticed, I consider him very much the best all-rounder and all-of-dota off-laners

04:18:44.100 --> 04:18:47.740
in the sense that no matter what you give him, he will make it work. Do you need

04:18:47.740 --> 04:18:51.780
blink initiation? He can do that. Do you need scaling through your off-lane? He will

04:18:51.780 --> 04:18:55.460
be able to do that. Do you need him to take a step back and sacrifice himself?

04:18:55.460 --> 04:18:57.580
He will do that and he will make it work.

04:18:57.580 --> 04:18:59.580
Whereas for a collapse, he has, of course,

04:18:59.580 --> 04:19:02.780
naturally shifted his hero pool as the meta has shifted.

04:19:02.780 --> 04:19:05.420
But what he's the best at in the entire world

04:19:05.420 --> 04:19:07.780
and has been is clutching teamfights.

04:19:07.780 --> 04:19:10.140
He's the best blink initiator in all of Dota.

04:19:10.140 --> 04:19:12.500
He's the best Aegis dealer in all of Dota.

04:19:12.500 --> 04:19:14.300
And he is the player that you rely on

04:19:14.300 --> 04:19:15.580
when things are going bad.

04:19:15.580 --> 04:19:18.460
He finds a way to turn impossible situations.

04:19:18.460 --> 04:19:20.580
Yeah, he has this magic quality to him almost

04:19:20.580 --> 04:19:22.500
that it just feels like if you have any player

04:19:22.500 --> 04:19:24.980
in the world at a clutch moment, you're picking him.

04:19:24.980 --> 04:19:27.700
I don't care what role it is, if he's playing mid, you're still picking collapse.

04:19:27.700 --> 04:19:31.140
He's just that, I don't know, he just has that special sauce.

04:19:31.140 --> 04:19:36.700
And I think Mir's point about notice is also very true that somehow in a comparison of off-laners,

04:19:36.700 --> 04:19:38.340
I don't think collapse is the clear favorite.

04:19:38.340 --> 04:19:43.300
This versatility that notice has, I think is something that's fallen by the wayside for a lot of Dota players.

04:19:43.300 --> 04:19:45.300
People are hyper-specialized in modern Dota.

04:19:45.300 --> 04:19:48.420
They play one way and they do it so well that they force you to beat it.

04:19:48.420 --> 04:19:52.660
And notice says, screw that, I'll play all the styles at a good enough level that I can win TI.

04:19:52.660 --> 04:19:58.380
That is that is amazing. It reminds me of xxs last year. I feel like he had a similar thing going

04:19:58.380 --> 04:20:02.020
We're like whatever the team needs whatever way I can enable our draft to work

04:20:02.020 --> 04:20:07.400
I'm gonna do that and it's a player that you can't really like ban against like what do you you can't take him out of the game

04:20:07.400 --> 04:20:09.400
You know, he's always gonna have some sort of impact

04:20:10.000 --> 04:20:14.620
There's a lot of fun being had between these all of us here a lot of people in the arena as well

04:20:14.620 --> 04:20:20.020
We can hear them cheering having a enjoyment of what's happening over on the Chinese broadcast too

04:20:20.020 --> 04:20:26.020
But the arena has been filled out by everyone here in Shanghai. It has been such a phenomenal time and slacks

04:20:26.300 --> 04:20:31.540
So thankfully decided that he would give us all a preview of what you guys might be missing out if you're watching at home

04:20:33.460 --> 04:20:36.340
Everybody I thought I'd give you a tour around the arena

04:20:36.340 --> 04:20:42.420
So I just slacks here with a little walkthrough of all the different sites to see around the old bowl as they say

04:20:42.420 --> 04:20:48.580
We're going to start things off with this embroidered ages.

04:20:48.580 --> 04:20:55.280
This is a real embroidery done by a master of embroidery in his own specific style, specifically

04:20:55.280 --> 04:20:59.500
to the ages that you'll be seeing on people's backs.

04:20:59.500 --> 04:21:04.180
Here we have our haul of different jerseys and rings throughout all the TI's.

04:21:04.180 --> 04:21:06.220
This is where it all started, baby.

04:21:06.220 --> 04:21:10.380
TI won over for the free-to-play pin is there.

04:21:10.380 --> 04:21:11.540
The original shirt.

04:21:11.540 --> 04:21:14.540
the original ring and there's so many beautiful designs.

04:21:14.540 --> 04:21:15.780
We've seen some of these before,

04:21:15.780 --> 04:21:18.420
but just seeing the growth of Dota 2,

04:21:18.420 --> 04:21:20.820
all the different rings, you get to pick your favorites.

04:21:20.820 --> 04:21:24.940
I don't mind, what a mind used to be this guy right here,

04:21:24.940 --> 04:21:27.100
just a standard team liquid,

04:21:27.100 --> 04:21:28.700
got a bunch of gems and stuff,

04:21:28.700 --> 04:21:30.900
but I have to say, oh, this is a cool one,

04:21:30.900 --> 04:21:32.420
if you wanna say this one is Tundra

04:21:32.420 --> 04:21:35.420
and they made the ring itself look like the logo,

04:21:35.420 --> 04:21:38.780
very cool, but I gotta take you to the new edition.

04:21:38.780 --> 04:21:41.460
This is last year team Falcons.

04:21:41.460 --> 04:21:45.100
Absolutely beautiful purple ring in there.

04:21:45.100 --> 04:21:48.340
I can't wait to see what next year's ring will be.

04:21:48.340 --> 04:21:50.340
But we'll have to do that on next year's tour

04:21:50.340 --> 04:21:52.920
as we keep going onto the attractions.

04:21:52.920 --> 04:21:54.180
Do you want to take a little seat?

04:21:54.180 --> 04:21:56.100
Well, come on over to the secret lab booth.

04:21:56.100 --> 04:21:58.540
You can see a beautiful replica of the Aegis,

04:21:58.540 --> 04:22:00.860
partaking some stuff and go look at some chairs.

04:22:00.860 --> 04:22:05.340
Now secret lab has been one of the only sponsors.

04:22:05.340 --> 04:22:06.380
With the international here,

04:22:06.380 --> 04:22:07.740
one of our official partners here,

04:22:07.740 --> 04:22:10.540
We have had custom chairs every single year

04:22:10.540 --> 04:22:11.820
and they are beautiful.

04:22:11.820 --> 04:22:14.780
Dating back all the way to nine.

04:22:14.780 --> 04:22:16.460
Look at this purple bad boy.

04:22:16.460 --> 04:22:19.580
So yeah, I personally love this year's chair.

04:22:19.580 --> 04:22:20.620
I think it's fantastic.

04:22:20.620 --> 04:22:23.380
We've got that nice logo on the back

04:22:23.380 --> 04:22:26.020
celebrating our embroidery theme this year.

04:22:26.020 --> 04:22:27.540
A lot of Chinese stuff.

04:22:27.540 --> 04:22:31.940
But me at home, I'm a classic boy.

04:22:31.940 --> 04:22:33.860
Got a logo for life.

04:22:33.860 --> 04:22:35.180
Hi, hello everybody.

04:22:35.180 --> 04:22:36.340
Hi!

04:22:36.340 --> 04:22:37.220
What's your name?

04:22:37.220 --> 04:22:38.660
My name is Khaled.

04:22:38.660 --> 04:22:39.780
Oh, fantastic.

04:22:39.780 --> 04:22:40.380
Welcome.

04:22:40.380 --> 04:22:41.980
This is our secret shop area.

04:22:41.980 --> 04:22:44.500
We saw you hanging out here, admiring it.

04:22:44.500 --> 04:22:46.100
Before we came, we have all the stuff

04:22:46.100 --> 04:22:48.980
in the secret shop in this glass case.

04:22:48.980 --> 04:22:50.140
What did you like?

04:22:50.140 --> 04:22:51.860
Was there anything interesting for you?

04:22:51.860 --> 04:22:54.340
Ah, I buy this one.

04:22:54.340 --> 04:22:56.100
Oh, the chest set?

04:22:56.100 --> 04:22:56.600
Yeah.

04:22:56.600 --> 04:22:57.500
This one is massive.

04:22:57.500 --> 04:22:58.500
Yeah, and this one.

04:22:58.500 --> 04:22:59.860
Oh, and the mouse pad?

04:22:59.860 --> 04:23:01.100
You went shopping today.

04:23:01.100 --> 04:23:02.940
Not the ogre magi cape?

04:23:02.940 --> 04:23:03.460
No.

04:23:03.460 --> 04:23:06.100
No, not the big Chungus froggy?

04:23:06.100 --> 04:23:07.460
No, I have a small one.

04:23:07.460 --> 04:23:08.780
Oh, you got little chungo.

04:23:08.780 --> 04:23:09.680
Okay, no problem.

04:23:09.680 --> 04:23:11.340
Whoa, that's a very good selection.

04:23:11.340 --> 04:23:12.700
I can't believe you got that whole thing.

04:23:12.700 --> 04:23:14.180
So that's pretty cool.

04:23:14.180 --> 04:23:15.740
My favorite thing,

04:23:15.740 --> 04:23:18.340
gotta be this gigantic crystal maiden.

04:23:18.340 --> 04:23:19.980
Yeah, I love this too.

04:23:19.980 --> 04:23:21.140
You, you got this?

04:23:21.140 --> 04:23:21.980
No.

04:23:21.980 --> 04:23:22.820
No, but you want it.

04:23:22.820 --> 04:23:23.660
Yeah, I want it.

04:23:23.660 --> 04:23:24.860
Well, congratulations.

04:23:24.860 --> 04:23:26.820
I hope one day you get to have it.

04:23:26.820 --> 04:23:29.460
Yeah, the super shop has many cool things.

04:23:29.460 --> 04:23:32.100
Can you give us a go buy stuff?

04:23:32.100 --> 04:23:32.940
Yeah!

04:23:36.100 --> 04:23:42.260
Here we have some never I believe released art from the game and it is very, very interesting.

04:23:42.260 --> 04:23:47.040
You got some creeps here, fire and lasers and stuff, got some beautiful rivers out there

04:23:47.040 --> 04:23:48.040
before it actually got out.

04:23:48.040 --> 04:23:53.260
I know this one was a preview to the back of TI 10 on Roshan, which was cool.

04:23:53.260 --> 04:23:55.660
We've got some massive lane pictures.

04:23:55.660 --> 04:23:59.620
Now you might have seen stuff like this Anti-Mage background picture before, but this

04:23:59.620 --> 04:24:00.860
is the full-size one.

04:24:00.860 --> 04:24:04.620
I never knew there were radiant towers behind Anti-Mage.

04:24:04.620 --> 04:24:10.640
This is an early concept art of Dota 2 heroes and other things and it is fascinating to

04:24:10.640 --> 04:24:17.960
see stuff like early Underlord, early TA, Arc Warden, Monkey King, these Slark before

04:24:17.960 --> 04:24:20.380
and afters are absolutely unreal.

04:24:20.380 --> 04:24:24.260
Did you know Apodon was supposed to ride on the haunted Gryffindor?

04:24:24.260 --> 04:24:25.460
I never knew that.

04:24:25.460 --> 04:24:29.660
But yes, absolutely fantastic and this one I know I've never seen the early concepts

04:24:29.660 --> 04:24:30.660
of Agnem.

04:24:30.660 --> 04:24:34.140
So, if you're a Lordlord, come and check out the early concepts.

04:24:34.140 --> 04:24:35.320
It is super cool.

04:24:35.320 --> 04:24:37.660
Welcome to the secret shop by friends.

04:24:37.660 --> 04:24:40.700
There he is, the shopkeeper and his beautiful pet.

04:24:40.700 --> 04:24:43.180
Do you have anything to say shopkeeper?

04:24:43.180 --> 04:24:44.820
No, it's a picture.

04:24:44.820 --> 04:24:47.180
Don't get crazy, but you can absolutely come here

04:24:47.180 --> 04:24:49.660
with your friends and have a beautiful picture.

04:24:49.660 --> 04:24:51.420
Bring your friends if you have them.

04:24:51.420 --> 04:24:53.460
It's a lovely setup.

04:24:53.460 --> 04:24:56.180
And there you have it, our little tour around the bowl.

04:24:56.180 --> 04:24:57.900
So if you guys are here, I hope you have fun.

04:24:57.900 --> 04:24:58.960
I hope you explore a little bit.

04:24:58.960 --> 04:25:00.620
There's lots to see and lots to do.

04:25:00.620 --> 04:25:02.940
And if you're not, you can be here next year.

04:25:02.940 --> 04:25:03.900
I'll see you guys again.

04:25:03.900 --> 04:25:05.900
Thanks for watching.

04:25:05.900 --> 04:25:09.900
There's always so much to do at TI just outside of watching

04:25:09.900 --> 04:25:13.020
the amazing data that these players are putting on for us.

04:25:13.020 --> 04:25:16.340
And this year's theme has just taken it to another level.

04:25:16.340 --> 04:25:19.500
Everything about it feels so symbolic, so meaningful,

04:25:19.500 --> 04:25:20.180
and so emotional.

04:25:20.180 --> 04:25:22.700
And to see it spread around, to get

04:25:22.700 --> 04:25:24.180
to go through those journeys, having

04:25:24.180 --> 04:25:27.420
to look at the jerseys and the rings of all of our TI

04:25:27.420 --> 04:25:29.780
winners of past, I think it's just so amazing

04:25:29.780 --> 04:25:31.340
to get to witness with your own eyes.

04:25:31.340 --> 04:25:36.380
it's not every day that someone wins a ring, let alone that you get to see it as well.

04:25:36.380 --> 04:25:40.860
Yeah, I think the theming of this TI and sort of the celebration, the decoration of the arena and the

04:25:40.860 --> 04:25:43.900
surrounding area has been really, really good. There's commemorative photos everywhere and just

04:25:43.900 --> 04:25:48.380
these pictures of people lifting the agus like that. That moment, so many moments captured

04:25:48.380 --> 04:25:51.740
and I think it's really special to just be walking around and just see all those pieces

04:25:51.740 --> 04:25:57.340
of history. It's very nostalgic and very cool. It's incredibly impactful. I mean,

04:25:57.340 --> 04:25:59.920
and you're saying back in Shanghai as well.

04:25:59.920 --> 04:26:02.940
This one's going to have so many different memories for you too, surely.

04:26:02.940 --> 04:26:05.800
I mean, last Shanghai was my first Ti ever.

04:26:05.800 --> 04:26:08.260
So obviously it has a special feeling in my heart.

04:26:08.260 --> 04:26:12.060
And this city is one of those places that I've always told my girlfriend,

04:26:12.060 --> 04:26:14.740
like, you have to come to Shanghai at some point.

04:26:14.740 --> 04:26:16.860
This is one of my favorite places in the entire world.

04:26:16.860 --> 04:26:19.780
It's where I essentially feel like my Dota journey started.

04:26:19.780 --> 04:26:22.940
So it holds a very special place in my heart.

04:26:22.940 --> 04:26:25.140
Yes, it's my first time in China.

04:26:25.140 --> 04:26:27.240
And it's such a cool thing to be here,

04:26:27.240 --> 04:26:28.720
because in Dota's history,

04:26:28.720 --> 04:26:30.520
China has always been an integral part of it,

04:26:30.520 --> 04:26:33.440
from teams to Dota culture to the back and forth,

04:26:33.440 --> 04:26:36.680
and the East versus West storylines we had for so long.

04:26:36.680 --> 04:26:38.960
And growing up being part of Dota and watching that,

04:26:38.960 --> 04:26:40.520
it's something that I've always wanted to do.

04:26:40.520 --> 04:26:41.680
It's always been a bucket list,

04:26:41.680 --> 04:26:43.040
but being here is so special.

04:26:43.040 --> 04:26:45.720
It has been amazing, two weeks of it as well,

04:26:45.720 --> 04:26:47.600
that everyone's just been so privileged

04:26:47.600 --> 04:26:49.120
in a way to get to experience.

04:26:49.120 --> 04:26:52.320
But if you guys have been here at the arena every day,

04:26:52.320 --> 04:26:54.440
grinding out what has been some phenomenal Dota,

04:26:54.440 --> 04:26:57.100
then maybe you've missed out on just how beautiful Shanghai is.

04:27:04.780 --> 04:27:10.640
We are here in Shanghai for TI 15 on the hunt for statues of heroes

04:27:10.640 --> 04:27:14.440
and of course the Aegis of the Immortals, no match.

04:27:14.440 --> 04:27:15.580
It's beautiful, isn't it?

04:27:15.580 --> 04:27:17.600
Has it ever made you consider going pro, Ted?

04:27:17.600 --> 04:27:19.740
Nothing has ever made me consider going pro,

04:27:19.740 --> 04:27:21.800
especially my total lack of ability.

04:27:21.800 --> 04:27:24.400
But I tell you what, this is the actual size of the Aegis.

04:27:24.400 --> 04:27:27.600
If you've ever seen the players lifting it on stage, they're giants.

04:27:27.600 --> 04:27:29.800
Yes, your size grows relative to your dota skill.

04:27:29.800 --> 04:27:31.700
It does indeed. It does indeed.

04:27:31.700 --> 04:27:32.800
These are dotted around.

04:27:32.800 --> 04:27:33.800
There's like different stats.

04:27:33.800 --> 04:27:36.300
You're going to find a quap statue, which I'm looking forward to.

04:27:36.300 --> 04:27:37.000
What are the other ones?

04:27:37.000 --> 04:27:37.800
Axe.

04:27:37.800 --> 04:27:41.800
There's a gigantic jug balloon on the sea, on the roof of one of the buildings here.

04:27:41.800 --> 04:27:43.000
You're going to see how many.

04:27:43.000 --> 04:27:44.300
But there is a wind ranger around as well.

04:27:44.300 --> 04:27:45.400
There is a wind ranger.

04:27:45.400 --> 04:27:46.400
Don't let him hunt her down.

04:27:46.400 --> 04:27:50.800
We're going to see how many we can find in 30 seconds.

04:27:50.800 --> 04:27:51.600
No, I'm going to kid it.

04:27:51.600 --> 04:27:52.800
It's not a race.

04:27:52.800 --> 04:27:58.760
It was like home as in the ball and we'll get you some shots and there's fans here taking pictures. This is fun

04:27:58.760 --> 04:28:04.160
It's very muggy here today. It is humid. It's very tropical. I feel like I'm on holiday with my dad

04:28:04.160 --> 04:28:10.600
Okay, can I call you dad? No, you can not call me dad. No, what about father? No, not father. No, daddy

04:28:10.600 --> 04:28:14.320
No, definitely not Papa. No Padre. No

04:28:15.440 --> 04:28:16.920
Oh

04:28:16.920 --> 04:28:19.920
No mad Wow take a look at these bad boys

04:28:19.920 --> 04:28:26.840
This giant inflatable plug. I mean this is the Pudge actually want on my team. Yeah carry Pudge

04:28:26.960 --> 04:28:28.960
This is proper late game Pudge

04:28:30.080 --> 04:28:36.480
10,000 health Pudge. I'll take my quap arcana. Thank you very very much. This is my queen right here

04:28:36.640 --> 04:28:41.520
I've got the blue arcana because I unlocked it because I love quap so much hail quap

04:28:41.520 --> 04:28:45.700
I love you my queen. This thing is absolutely massive. This is taller than Saksa

04:28:45.700 --> 04:28:48.700
I think it might actually be taller than Zagre.

04:28:48.700 --> 04:28:51.700
Anyway, Nomad, we've got plenty more to find. Let's go.

04:28:51.700 --> 04:28:52.700
Let's have a look.

04:28:52.700 --> 04:28:54.700
Golly, period. I think that's an axe.

04:28:54.700 --> 04:28:56.700
I think you might be right, Nomad. Look at this.

04:28:56.700 --> 04:28:57.700
He's glorious.

04:28:57.700 --> 04:29:00.700
Absolutely phenomenal axe here.

04:29:00.700 --> 04:29:02.700
He looks very disappointed.

04:29:02.700 --> 04:29:03.700
Slightly disappointed axe.

04:29:03.700 --> 04:29:06.700
This is my off-laner. When I'm paused for a supporting axe,

04:29:06.700 --> 04:29:07.700
I failed to pull the camp.

04:29:07.700 --> 04:29:09.700
The carry and the five have jumped in.

04:29:09.700 --> 04:29:10.700
They got level two before us.

04:29:10.700 --> 04:29:12.700
I know where to be seen. That's the face.

04:29:12.700 --> 04:29:14.700
That's the face you make.

04:29:14.700 --> 04:29:18.460
trauma coming out here, period. But yeah, I will say usually there is a barrier around

04:29:18.460 --> 04:29:21.860
here. So don't need to worry about someone coming around the corner too fast and getting

04:29:21.860 --> 04:29:25.180
beheaded by the axe. It is normally very safe. And if you do come here, you're not allowed

04:29:25.180 --> 04:29:31.260
to do this. You can't boot backs like I can. You're not allowed to do that. Look at those

04:29:31.260 --> 04:29:35.260
muscles. I think I think he's got bigger biceps than fly. I think they might be

04:29:35.260 --> 04:29:39.260
slightly bigger than flies. It might. I still think Saxa is taller than this.

04:29:39.260 --> 04:29:40.320
Yes, he is, he is, yes.

04:29:40.320 --> 04:29:42.700
The fly is swallower than this, I believe.

04:29:42.700 --> 04:29:46.100
Anyway, we've got other, we've got other statues to find.

04:29:46.100 --> 04:29:47.300
Nomad, are you ready?

04:29:47.300 --> 04:29:48.300
I'm ready, let's go.

04:29:49.740 --> 04:29:51.460
What are we looking for next Nomad?

04:29:51.460 --> 04:29:53.060
Let's hear a big jug, Perian.

04:29:53.060 --> 04:29:55.380
Big jug, big jug.

04:29:55.380 --> 04:29:56.220
Stop.

04:29:57.060 --> 04:29:59.740
Look at the size of that jug over there, baby.

04:29:59.740 --> 04:30:01.980
Oh my, that's the biggest jug I've ever seen.

04:30:01.980 --> 04:30:03.380
Coming out of the skyline.

04:30:03.380 --> 04:30:06.820
It's massive, it's up on a cliff.

04:30:06.820 --> 04:30:08.180
Is it that easy?

04:30:08.180 --> 04:30:09.540
Our tour come down.

04:30:09.540 --> 04:30:10.660
It's not safe up there.

04:30:10.660 --> 04:30:12.140
I didn't think he made it to this TI.

04:30:12.140 --> 04:30:13.420
I don't think he has a TPE scroll.

04:30:13.420 --> 04:30:15.500
Well, he's stuck now.

04:30:15.500 --> 04:30:16.900
Someone get him a ladder.

04:30:19.100 --> 04:30:21.660
Pirion Flaks, look at this.

04:30:21.660 --> 04:30:24.140
This is absolutely breathtaking.

04:30:24.140 --> 04:30:28.420
Holy moly, Windranger in all her glory.

04:30:28.420 --> 04:30:29.260
The Arkhanis.

04:30:29.260 --> 04:30:30.060
Oh my god.

04:30:30.060 --> 04:30:31.940
Please, please don't touch it.

04:30:31.940 --> 04:30:33.340
Oh my god, it's so delicate.

04:30:33.340 --> 04:30:34.180
It's so intricate.

04:30:34.180 --> 04:30:34.700
It is.

04:30:34.700 --> 04:30:35.700
It's so well made.

04:30:35.700 --> 04:30:36.300
It's really good.

04:30:36.300 --> 04:30:41.620
I mean the leaves the detail on these is incredible each one of these was hand-carved by an old Chinese lady

04:30:41.620 --> 04:30:43.100
Is that right? Yes, that is true

04:30:43.100 --> 04:30:46.020
Well, we found a lot of things so far on our trek around Shanghai

04:30:46.020 --> 04:30:50.740
I think we've got two or three more things to find so yeah, let's split up and search for clues

04:30:50.740 --> 04:30:53.220
Okay, Daphne. All right sounds like a good plan Fred

04:30:54.500 --> 04:31:00.700
Period oh, there you are. Hello, mate. Hello look at these beauties. Oh my god

04:31:00.700 --> 04:31:05.940
I mean this I don't even have jokes as Mars is just fantastic. That is pretty blooming cool

04:31:06.300 --> 04:31:09.820
And they got a shadow fiend as well who's well

04:31:10.180 --> 04:31:15.220
Turns out I'm taller than shadow fiends. That feels pretty good. I mean, it's pretty good

04:31:15.220 --> 04:31:19.420
It looks epic for sure. I mean look at the colors. Look at the rendering. It's sick

04:31:19.420 --> 04:31:22.620
I mean, this is how every shadow fiend player thinks they look when they're playing that hero

04:31:23.620 --> 04:31:26.240
After they've just missed their third yule's combo, of course

04:31:26.240 --> 04:31:32.320
And there in the middle is the true sized ages not like the gigantic one we saw at the start of this bit

04:31:32.320 --> 04:31:38.920
This is more like what it actually looks like realistic. You ever held the actual ages? I haven't have you several times

04:31:38.920 --> 04:31:43.840
I'm sure you have several times and every single time there's a valve person who says don't drop

04:31:45.240 --> 04:31:46.840
Well, we've done

04:31:46.840 --> 04:31:50.240
The full tour of these now. Yes, indeed indeed

04:31:50.240 --> 04:31:54.180
It's been a full tour of all of the Dota heroes around here and yeah

04:31:54.180 --> 04:31:56.240
You can go out into the streets of Shanghai and see it yourself

04:31:56.240 --> 04:31:59.840
They are fantastic and some will be around the arena as well

04:31:59.840 --> 04:32:03.600
Those of you who don't get a chance to come to Shanghai, we've done the tour for you

04:32:03.600 --> 04:32:06.880
We've had a great time seeing all the sides been driven all around Shanghai

04:32:06.880 --> 04:32:10.800
And and it all ends here as it will at the end of the Grand Finals

04:32:11.040 --> 04:32:17.240
Well next week when someone lifts the actual version of this above their head and everyone goes ballistic

04:32:17.240 --> 04:32:20.920
That's what's gonna happen from the streets of Shanghai from us. Bye. Bye a

04:32:24.160 --> 04:32:26.560
lot of effort and care and

04:32:26.560 --> 04:32:28.560
going into what we've been able

04:32:28.560 --> 04:32:29.560
to witness as door defense

04:32:29.560 --> 04:32:31.560
throughout the city of Shanghai

04:32:31.560 --> 04:32:33.560
throughout our arena here as well.

04:32:33.560 --> 04:32:35.560
It feels like every time you think

04:32:35.560 --> 04:32:36.560
this is going to be the coolest thing

04:32:36.560 --> 04:32:38.560
you get to see this T. I there is

04:32:38.560 --> 04:32:39.560
someone or something that proves

04:32:39.560 --> 04:32:40.560
you wrong and you get to

04:32:40.560 --> 04:32:42.560
experience something new again.

04:32:42.560 --> 04:32:43.560
But let's see the replica ages.

04:32:43.560 --> 04:32:45.560
We've got the real ages out

04:32:45.560 --> 04:32:47.560
there on stage now, and it's

04:32:47.560 --> 04:32:48.560
either going to be spirit with

04:32:48.560 --> 04:32:49.560
a couple of newbies, a couple

04:32:49.560 --> 04:32:51.560
of old faces lifting that ages

04:32:51.560 --> 04:32:53.560
again, not as many as as Ted

04:32:53.560 --> 04:32:55.560
clearly is lifted, but getting

04:32:55.560 --> 04:33:00.200
that. Yeah, it's a it's a chance

04:33:00.200 --> 04:33:01.400
for the third right? No one's

04:33:01.400 --> 04:33:03.400
ever won three TIs as a player.

04:33:03.400 --> 04:33:05.400
Only a Y is a coach and player,

04:33:05.400 --> 04:33:07.400
so it's the potential for a

04:33:07.400 --> 04:33:08.400
very special occasion. I remember

04:33:08.400 --> 04:33:10.400
before anyone had won two TIs,

04:33:10.400 --> 04:33:11.400
it was like who's going to be

04:33:11.400 --> 04:33:12.400
the first and that's that's a

04:33:12.400 --> 04:33:14.400
big deal cementing yourself in

04:33:14.400 --> 04:33:15.400
history is not just the T. I

04:33:15.400 --> 04:33:17.400
winner, but a special kind of

04:33:17.400 --> 04:33:18.400
T. I winner. It is you know,

04:33:18.400 --> 04:33:20.400
it's a goal even higher than

04:33:20.400 --> 04:33:21.400
normal T. I winning and then

04:33:21.400 --> 04:33:22.400
on the side of vision and

04:33:22.400 --> 04:33:24.400
saying it would be so many new

04:33:24.400 --> 04:33:29.000
Closed it to the triple digits and you know, but we could potentially get that today

04:33:29.320 --> 04:33:33.080
Yeah, I mean if spirit wins it's entirely possible right to get to get the three feet

04:33:33.080 --> 04:33:39.560
But for vision, I think it's really special because puppy won the first TI and he hasn't won ever since then right?

04:33:39.560 --> 04:33:44.840
He's been so close so many times and it can finally happen today for him. I think for safe panic

04:33:44.840 --> 04:33:49.040
It's about you know closing in on the atoro try to make that gap smaller

04:33:49.040 --> 04:33:53.720
make sure that he can surpass his idol really and for no one I think probably

04:33:53.720 --> 04:33:58.900
the most special person here today so many times coming to TI as a favorite so

04:33:58.900 --> 04:34:02.380
many times falling short and now finally being in the grand final and

04:34:02.380 --> 04:34:06.680
having a shot at it. That's so amazing to think about the puppy won the first

04:34:06.680 --> 04:34:11.760
ever international and now we've come full circle and he's still competing

04:34:11.760 --> 04:34:16.320
all of these years later at TI 15 as a coach like to me this is one of the

04:34:16.320 --> 04:34:21.520
most incredible storylines of this entire TI. It's not the most incredible one. I just

04:34:21.520 --> 04:34:26.400
can't believe that someone has been that consistent throughout Dota. Like this is longevity like

04:34:26.400 --> 04:34:30.600
we've never seen before. I don't even know if he has comparison in any other esport.

04:34:30.600 --> 04:34:35.520
Yeah. The legacy is crazy, especially considering how much Dota changes. Like there's patches

04:34:35.520 --> 04:34:39.520
all the time and the game shifts and morphs. It's not a static thing. It's an ever-changing

04:34:39.520 --> 04:34:43.960
thing. And so to have the commitment to something to stay with it, even while

04:34:43.960 --> 04:34:47.400
it changes is doubly impressive, I think.

04:34:47.400 --> 04:34:49.720
I know that we've been talking about stepping things up,

04:34:49.720 --> 04:34:51.520
however time you think you've seen the coolest thing,

04:34:51.520 --> 04:34:52.840
there's one more thing to add.

04:34:52.840 --> 04:34:55.400
Well, our grand finals will no doubt be the top of it,

04:34:55.400 --> 04:34:57.480
but I've got something else to slud in just before,

04:34:57.480 --> 04:35:00.360
and I know Devon Tsunami would love to walk us through it.

04:35:02.200 --> 04:35:04.080
We are now in the gallery

04:35:04.080 --> 04:35:06.960
on the side of the Sushou's Shingo.

04:35:06.960 --> 04:35:10.160
Wow, it's really beautiful.

04:35:10.160 --> 04:35:11.760
It's an incredible work of art.

04:35:11.760 --> 04:35:14.500
three months to build something like this.

04:35:14.500 --> 04:35:16.440
I thought it was digital, but it turns out

04:35:16.440 --> 04:35:17.600
that was just the template.

04:35:17.600 --> 04:35:19.720
And then an incredibly talented artist

04:35:19.720 --> 04:35:22.240
took the time to put every single thread

04:35:22.240 --> 04:35:23.660
in the real thing.

04:35:23.660 --> 04:35:26.900
大家都知道苏秀是我国的一项传统记忆

04:35:26.900 --> 04:35:28.660
它经过了几千年的传承

04:35:28.660 --> 04:35:30.740
它的记忆在不断的精湛改善

04:35:30.740 --> 04:35:32.900
现在我们看到了这一个苏秀的作品

04:35:32.900 --> 04:35:36.780
它其实有一个非常非常非常细的地方

04:35:36.780 --> 04:35:37.820
不知道大家能不能看到

04:35:37.820 --> 04:35:41.020
就是它这个平面完全是平的

04:35:41.020 --> 04:35:42.780
这也是苏秀的一个技巧

04:35:42.780 --> 04:35:44.260
就是你在缝制的时候

04:35:44.260 --> 04:35:47.060
你的每一针的拉力都必须是均匀的

04:35:47.060 --> 04:35:48.180
这样下去的时候

04:35:48.180 --> 04:35:50.060
每一针才能恰到好处

04:35:50.060 --> 04:35:51.660
它是一个完整的平面

04:35:51.660 --> 04:35:54.700
Can you check if it's actually so flat?

04:35:54.700 --> 04:35:57.620
I'm telling you, like this almost looks like a painting at first,

04:35:57.620 --> 04:36:00.620
or like a woodcut painting kind of thing, but it's real.

04:36:00.620 --> 04:36:04.540
It's all threads, and it's a gorgeous tapestry.

04:36:04.540 --> 04:36:07.660
This art form has had to be preserved for thousands of years,

04:36:07.660 --> 04:36:10.820
and the fact that there are still artisans creating it to this day

04:36:10.820 --> 04:36:12.700
is truly impressive.

04:36:12.700 --> 04:36:16.260
But I was hoping I could ask you about some of the specific themes that they threw in.

04:36:16.260 --> 04:36:20.500
So I'm noticing here there are pine branches on the left side,

04:36:20.500 --> 04:36:23.540
And then on the right side there are plum blossoms.

04:36:23.540 --> 04:36:24.900
What's the significance of that?

04:36:24.900 --> 04:36:29.100
So these are symbolizes some very good quality personalities

04:36:29.100 --> 04:36:32.780
about strength, about resilience, about never give up.

04:36:32.780 --> 04:36:33.620
Perseverance.

04:36:33.620 --> 04:36:34.460
Yes.

04:36:34.460 --> 04:36:35.300
I see.

04:36:35.300 --> 04:36:37.620
And then how about we got the tides at the bottom

04:36:37.620 --> 04:36:40.260
and then clouds all the way at the top.

04:36:40.260 --> 04:36:43.180
These are just in Chinese we call that jixiang.

04:36:43.180 --> 04:36:45.260
So it's kind of like a good fortune

04:36:45.260 --> 04:36:46.900
and it's just blessing.

04:36:46.900 --> 04:36:47.740
I see.

04:36:47.740 --> 04:36:50.380
And then of course the entire design as a whole,

04:36:50.380 --> 04:36:52.100
I know we pointed it out how flat it is,

04:36:52.100 --> 04:36:54.660
but I want you to see that the effort it takes

04:36:54.660 --> 04:36:57.980
to make all these things look like different colors.

04:36:57.980 --> 04:37:01.000
The sheen of each of the threads,

04:37:01.000 --> 04:37:02.860
as the light catches them,

04:37:02.860 --> 04:37:05.660
and yet somehow you can still see shading on all of it.

04:37:05.660 --> 04:37:12.660
In real life, we can see that every single line has a color change.

04:37:12.660 --> 04:37:14.660
This is a 2D screen.

04:37:14.660 --> 04:37:19.660
But you can see the 3D color change is very, very beautiful.

04:37:19.660 --> 04:37:23.660
It's an incredible work of art, but this is just the cloth version, the thread version.

04:37:23.660 --> 04:37:27.660
Tomorrow we're going to find out who wins the real thing on the stage.

04:37:27.660 --> 04:37:50.660
That is an absolute piece of art. It is so beautiful to get to see it, but knowing even more that the amount of time put into this one piece itself, you can't even fathom what it requires.

04:37:50.660 --> 04:37:53.360
it's also 20 years of

04:37:53.360 --> 04:37:54.660
experience being put into what

04:37:54.660 --> 04:37:55.860
we got to witness what we get

04:37:55.860 --> 04:37:57.260
to see and what we get to use

04:37:57.260 --> 04:37:58.460
as a means to celebrate it.

04:37:58.460 --> 04:37:59.760
And I love the motifs.

04:37:59.760 --> 04:38:00.660
We're talking about it.

04:38:00.660 --> 04:38:02.260
Resilience with good luck.

04:38:02.260 --> 04:38:03.260
And it reminds me really

04:38:03.260 --> 04:38:05.060
strongly of a quote that I love

04:38:05.060 --> 04:38:06.860
where it's luck is when thought

04:38:06.860 --> 04:38:08.260
what is it luck is when

04:38:08.260 --> 04:38:09.860
preparation meets opportunity.

04:38:09.860 --> 04:38:11.060
And I feel like that is what

04:38:11.060 --> 04:38:11.860
is going to happen.

04:38:11.860 --> 04:38:12.860
The preparation happens

04:38:12.860 --> 04:38:14.360
before grand finals and the

04:38:14.360 --> 04:38:15.660
opportunity is now presented

04:38:15.660 --> 04:38:16.660
for you and it's going to

04:38:16.660 --> 04:38:18.060
feel incredibly lucky to stand

04:38:18.060 --> 04:38:19.360
out there in front of

04:38:19.360 --> 04:38:20.460
everyone here at Shanghai

04:38:20.460 --> 04:38:24.460
that ages in three games, four or five, whatever it takes.

04:38:24.460 --> 04:38:28.460
Yeah, it's an amazing feat, and it's something that you always strive for,

04:38:28.460 --> 04:38:30.460
but you don't have complete control, right?

04:38:30.460 --> 04:38:33.460
Dota is a team game. There are a lot of moving parts there, patches.

04:38:33.460 --> 04:38:36.460
There are all these things that can change your odds of actually winning,

04:38:36.460 --> 04:38:40.460
and so you do your job. You do as much as you can, your individual work,

04:38:40.460 --> 04:38:42.460
either helping your teammates or just your game play.

04:38:42.460 --> 04:38:45.460
But at the end of the day, everyone has to show up and play their part

04:38:45.460 --> 04:38:48.460
in winning a tournament. I think that's why, part of why it's so difficult

04:38:48.460 --> 04:38:53.660
called on a mental and sort of, I don't know, just preparation level is that you are just a small part of that.

04:38:53.660 --> 04:38:55.860
You don't have complete control, and humans love control.

04:38:56.360 --> 04:39:01.160
And I mean, I think every single TI winner would account their win to some degree of luck,

04:39:01.160 --> 04:39:04.560
whether it's luck with a patch or luck with, like, everything clicked at the right time.

04:39:04.560 --> 04:39:07.860
We're luck with us peeking and the other team maybe not peeking.

04:39:07.860 --> 04:39:14.760
Like, there is always an element of luck involved in winning TI, and it's, it's cool to, you know, you just have to have it.

04:39:14.760 --> 04:39:15.960
If you don't, you're not going to win.

04:39:15.960 --> 04:39:21.720
We were alluding to no one's perseverance, his resilience as well. I mean, how poetic would it feel

04:39:21.720 --> 04:39:27.640
for this to be the one that he finally lifts the ages with? For him, we mentioned it so many times,

04:39:27.640 --> 04:39:32.520
he's come in on the favorite team, so many times favorite teams in general have come in and fallen

04:39:32.520 --> 04:39:38.360
just that little bit shy. Last year was one of those ones for them and look how close they were.

04:39:38.360 --> 04:39:43.400
It was a top three finish. They were literally one game away from making it to a grand final

04:39:43.400 --> 04:39:47.800
And it ended there. This time around, going through the upper bracket, you don't have that pressure,

04:39:47.800 --> 04:39:51.320
but you still have to face the reality of a grand final of a best of five.

04:39:51.960 --> 04:39:58.840
Yeah, I mean, especially the TI 2017's and 2018's, these are the ones that no one

04:39:58.840 --> 04:40:03.160
must really feel more than anything because if we look at his history as a player,

04:40:03.160 --> 04:40:09.000
he was known as the most scary mid laner in the world in that duration of time.

04:40:09.000 --> 04:40:11.880
When he was VP no one, when he was playing on that dominant roster,

04:40:11.880 --> 04:40:17.000
he was crushing everybody. Even our most famous and popular midlaners did not want to face him.

04:40:17.000 --> 04:40:21.320
If you listen to Miracle or something, I'll talk about him in the past. They always say,

04:40:21.320 --> 04:40:25.480
I don't want to blame you if you know one. There were jokes about Miracle forcing Matu to play

04:40:25.480 --> 04:40:29.720
mid. That's not a joke. It's true. I've heard Matu say it himself. He still says it. Yeah,

04:40:29.720 --> 04:40:35.400
every time, every time they would play VP, he's like, Matu, give me a safe lane, please.

04:40:35.400 --> 04:40:41.480
But just the fact that he had this history as a mid laner but didn't have an

04:40:41.480 --> 04:40:46.380
age to his name up until potentially today we'll see speaks a lot to his

04:40:46.380 --> 04:40:49.840
resilience because a lot of players they'll peek at a certain time and then

04:40:49.840 --> 04:40:53.840
we just don't hear from them again they fall off but he's brought himself back

04:40:53.840 --> 04:40:57.380
up and he kept competing and he still has sights on his dream and that's a

04:40:57.380 --> 04:41:01.200
beautiful thing to behold. Yeah it's it's really amazing and if you didn't

04:41:01.200 --> 04:41:05.220
play against the back then it's hard to fully understand how disgustingly

04:41:05.220 --> 04:41:12.220
I don't think this guy was. I don't think I won one single lane against them. We played them like 25 times. It's he was he was incredible.

04:41:12.220 --> 04:41:18.220
Those teams are incredible and I think it's a testament to how hard it is to win this tournament that they were dominant throughout those years.

04:41:18.220 --> 04:41:25.220
They were dominant last year on Team Vision and now coming in again getting another chance. I think it's something you really just try to be grateful for that.

04:41:25.220 --> 04:41:31.220
We had the opportunity to get to play in this amazing grand final surrounded by all these people that care so much and they have.

04:41:31.220 --> 04:41:33.780
I know they've done incredibly well on a lot of heroes as well.

04:41:33.780 --> 04:41:37.700
There are pieces to this puzzle that aren't just the players, but the heroes too.

04:41:38.060 --> 04:41:40.660
And if you look at the top of the leaderboard, it's two midlaners, right?

04:41:40.660 --> 04:41:44.380
It's Ember and it's Earth Spirit, and he's been absolutely amazing on both of these heroes.

04:41:44.580 --> 04:41:46.860
I feel like for Yandex, for example, we saw them kind of fall short

04:41:46.860 --> 04:41:48.100
because they were lacking a hero.

04:41:48.100 --> 04:41:51.580
And that's where having the experience of having played for such a long time comes in.

04:41:51.780 --> 04:41:53.980
Because you know how to play almost all the midlaners,

04:41:54.180 --> 04:41:57.180
and no one is an incredible value for his team in that regard.

04:41:57.660 --> 04:42:01.020
And two of the stand-up heroes that Vision have been owning on to me

04:42:01.020 --> 04:42:03.860
or the offline heroes that popped up, the Centaur and the Doom.

04:42:03.860 --> 04:42:06.760
That brings me back to notice on how much she's provided for the team

04:42:06.760 --> 04:42:09.320
because the archetype of these heroes is very different.

04:42:09.320 --> 04:42:12.520
With Centaur, sure, there is a lot of farming and a lot of creep dragging going on,

04:42:12.520 --> 04:42:14.420
but initially, you're playing for teamfights.

04:42:14.420 --> 04:42:17.260
You're playing around the stampede, you're looking towards map control,

04:42:17.260 --> 04:42:20.060
whereas with Doom, you're playing for late-game scaling.

04:42:20.060 --> 04:42:21.820
Vision has done both very well.

04:42:21.820 --> 04:42:23.660
We've seen them take over tempo,

04:42:23.660 --> 04:42:26.220
we've seen them pop off and just completely crush the enemy

04:42:26.220 --> 04:42:28.320
and we've seen them play slower-paced games.

04:42:28.320 --> 04:42:30.920
Take it to the very end and win off of their scaling.

04:42:30.920 --> 04:42:34.920
and the fact that they can do both makes them so difficult to play against.

04:42:34.920 --> 04:42:38.680
I think it's also just that we look towards the supports of both teams as well,

04:42:38.680 --> 04:42:41.160
because we talk about no one and his resurgence,

04:42:41.160 --> 04:42:46.600
how he's able to bring himself up to being on a team that is as dominant as vision.

04:42:46.600 --> 04:42:49.960
It's his skill, but it's also the surrounding cast that's helping him.

04:42:49.960 --> 04:42:52.120
And when we're looking at nine-class and Dukala's,

04:42:52.120 --> 04:42:55.000
their names we've mentioned so often time and time again

04:42:55.000 --> 04:42:56.680
over the last few seasons of Dota.

04:42:56.680 --> 04:43:00.520
But people might forget that this is only their second TI appearance.

04:43:00.520 --> 04:43:04.520
Their first one was also that top three. Their second one is now a grand final.

04:43:04.520 --> 04:43:09.080
That's so crazy to think about when they were these annoying terrors with techies and pubs.

04:43:09.080 --> 04:43:13.080
And now you're like, that is actually one of the biggest strengths of how you're playing

04:43:13.080 --> 04:43:15.960
is so important, how you're getting under the skin of your opponents.

04:43:15.960 --> 04:43:20.120
Yeah, to go from third to second like that in your first two TI's, they are

04:43:20.120 --> 04:43:24.280
so incredibly skilled. And I think they're not those players that were just instantly

04:43:24.280 --> 04:43:28.120
incredible at the game. I think they are where they are due to hard work and dedication.

04:43:28.120 --> 04:43:34.000
They're players that grinded pubs for years and years and now they're finally getting the fruits of their labor

04:43:34.000 --> 04:43:36.000
They are super hard workers

04:43:36.120 --> 04:43:41.640
Incredibly skilled when you play with them you can feel it every decision they make is crisp their item decisions everything

04:43:41.640 --> 04:43:46.520
They are immaculate players and their cores would be nothing without the supports propping them up

04:43:46.520 --> 04:43:52.040
I would say these are probably even coming into PI the two support heroes that I would say were the strongest

04:43:52.160 --> 04:43:54.640
And it seems to have been a major factor in their runs

04:43:54.640 --> 04:44:00.360
I think especially the spirit supports I personally have found like ever since like I'd say like a month or two ago

04:44:00.360 --> 04:44:01.920
Even when fear wasn't doing so hot

04:44:01.920 --> 04:44:07.840
I just kept feeling like they're out training their course and to do that on spirit says a lot about how well you're playing I

04:44:08.040 --> 04:44:14.840
Mean it's the supports about the ages steels on team spirit this time, which normally something we see collapse doing yeah

04:44:14.840 --> 04:44:15.840
I was

04:44:15.840 --> 04:44:17.280
You know on the on the spirit side

04:44:17.280 --> 04:44:19.720
It was not me and rude both of them were able to get it

04:44:19.720 --> 04:44:25.040
But we're seeing nine class in Ducalus and I love that their support hero pools don't overlap

04:44:25.040 --> 04:44:29.680
But you still have to think about the flexibility because that techies walls to call us is playing it

04:44:29.680 --> 04:44:34.740
It could easily just as much be a non-class to college. I'm sorry nine class techies as well that

04:44:35.240 --> 04:44:38.920
Yeah, it definitely could they they've got a little bit a little bit of overlap

04:44:38.920 --> 04:44:42.680
But also a lot of uniqueness you see a lot of heroes here that nobody else was playing the Pudge

04:44:42.720 --> 04:44:47.200
They really prioritized this dark will techies and the ogre magi from Ducalus

04:44:47.200 --> 04:44:53.680
They have they just have so many strengths and I think it's it just makes it very very difficult to play against them

04:44:53.680 --> 04:44:57.880
Especially as how those map has changed it being bigger and the gates being added to the game

04:44:57.880 --> 04:45:01.300
I think is added so much more importance on supports because you have more options

04:45:01.300 --> 04:45:04.800
Not only can you get me if you can get the other side like you can stack camps

04:45:04.800 --> 04:45:08.840
There's a lot of choices on what to do in terms of moves and efficiency and it's put so much

04:45:08.900 --> 04:45:12.880
Importance on these two roles over time. I genuinely think there's some of the hardest roles in Dota right now

04:45:12.880 --> 04:45:15.280
and that brings me back to an interview we had with

04:45:15.280 --> 04:45:20.160
with Ducalis on Team Vision at Dream League where we asked them what's going on with you

04:45:20.160 --> 04:45:25.200
guys, why are you playing so well? And he said, we're just taking a lot of personal responsibility.

04:45:25.200 --> 04:45:29.560
I think me and my class are just playing better than we were at the start of the season.

04:45:29.560 --> 04:45:34.600
And he said ultimately that what takes you furthest in Dota is if you have the best

04:45:34.600 --> 04:45:37.960
players and he thinks that they are the best players and they are the best supports

04:45:37.960 --> 04:45:41.480
in terms of technical skill. And I found that confidence very interesting.

04:45:41.480 --> 04:45:46.720
Yeah, I mean for sure and I think that confidence is backed up by hours and hours put into the game if you pay attention

04:45:46.720 --> 04:45:50.240
I think to call us everything and picks any hero. It's at least platinum

04:45:51.080 --> 04:45:55.660
Like he's like the Amar of position 5. He has so many games and all these here

04:45:55.660 --> 04:45:59.480
There's so many reps and that's why I think he also when you pay attention to the hero pools

04:45:59.480 --> 04:46:04.520
Has slightly bigger hero pool than blue right? He's had years to refine his position 5 gameplay

04:46:04.520 --> 04:46:06.640
Whereas it was kind of been thrown into it very recently

04:46:06.640 --> 04:46:12.280
So it's cool also to see that kind of matchup of like a lot of experience versus somebody who's coming into a role with like a

04:46:12.280 --> 04:46:17.680
Completely different perspective on it. I mean there's someone that's coming into this TI as their first one and that's not me

04:46:17.680 --> 04:46:19.120
We haven't even mentioned him yet

04:46:19.120 --> 04:46:23.460
Just how impactful it's been that he also joins the team with spirit around the time that

04:46:23.480 --> 04:46:26.760
Moposhka is joining his coach as well and it feels like he slotted it

04:46:26.760 --> 04:46:28.640
We didn't even necessarily see the roster change

04:46:28.640 --> 04:46:31.560
That's how seamless it felt him joining and removing to that five

04:46:31.560 --> 04:46:37.500
Yeah, I think it's also very fitting that he's lending with collapse because it's not me guy has the clutch gene like almost

04:46:37.500 --> 04:46:41.520
Nobody have ever seen is a rookie. It's ridiculous this guy whether it's the hardest match of his life

04:46:41.520 --> 04:46:42.780
If they're down 15 cake old

04:46:42.780 --> 04:46:49.340
He is still absolutely owning and so the fact of the two most clutch guys ever that I've seen are on the same land

04:46:49.340 --> 04:46:53.880
I think it's just only fitting that and it fits spirits so much that they they're just the clutch guys

04:46:53.880 --> 04:46:59.360
I also find it a benefit of it when it's your first time playing a tournament for like a big tournament like TI

04:46:59.360 --> 04:47:05.800
You don't really necessarily have the experience of like fully having understood what it means and all this pressure that's going on

04:47:05.800 --> 04:47:08.500
You just show up and you're thinking I'm just gonna focus on playing the best

04:47:08.500 --> 04:47:14.720
Thota that I possibly can and I think that it also enables you to be a bit more clutch to take those risks because you don't have the experience of

04:47:14.960 --> 04:47:19.540
Trying to do that and then being punished for it. So I think that gives them a little bit of freedom in the series too

04:47:21.240 --> 04:47:23.240
Well 25 seconds

04:47:23.240 --> 04:47:27.760
I'm just excited you more nervous as a panelist than when you were playing walking out for a grand final

04:47:27.760 --> 04:47:29.920
No, not even close playing is way more stressful

04:47:29.920 --> 04:47:34.800
And that's why I'm excited to see how they look how they feel how they play because it's just such a monumental moment for all

04:47:34.800 --> 04:47:35.800
10 of those players

04:47:35.800 --> 04:47:43.120
It's just so insane the way that everyone's feeling at me to feel like we're this close moments away from our grand finals in Shanghai

04:47:43.120 --> 04:47:47.680
I have such high expectations for these finals. I think it's gonna go to all five games

04:47:47.680 --> 04:47:53.560
All five games would be amazing if we get the moment everyone's been waiting for, the

04:47:53.560 --> 04:47:54.560
horn here.

04:47:54.560 --> 04:47:58.960
This grand final has everything on the line, three-time hopefuls here, two-time hopeful

04:47:58.960 --> 04:48:03.480
in law, first-timers as well on the side of vision, but we know at the end of the

04:48:03.480 --> 04:48:07.840
day whoever lists that age is going to be a lot of fun and it brings me a much pleasure

04:48:07.840 --> 04:48:12.200
to welcome you to the grand finals here at TI15.

04:48:12.200 --> 04:48:19.200
They battle around the world for the right to stand amongst legends.

04:48:23.200 --> 04:48:26.200
We gather where the legends are made.

04:48:32.200 --> 04:48:37.200
They overcome every challenge that stands in their way.

04:48:37.200 --> 04:48:45.200
We witness the final ascent to Dota's greatest stage.

04:48:48.200 --> 04:48:54.200
They carve their names into the pantheon of legends.

04:48:59.200 --> 04:49:05.200
We fear as the immortal pattern finally comes into view.

04:49:07.200 --> 04:49:16.720
Now, at last, we can answer the ultimate question.

04:49:16.720 --> 04:49:23.120
What shape does greatness take?

04:49:23.120 --> 04:49:48.260
I mean, this gives me chills, this is honestly one of the most magical moments in any Dota

04:49:48.260 --> 04:49:51.940
players career. I think, you know, on spirit side, they've been here before, they've experienced

04:49:51.940 --> 04:49:56.140
it before. For vision, it's the first time. And I hope they really end up this moment

04:49:56.140 --> 04:49:57.140
and enjoy their time.

04:49:57.140 --> 04:50:02.460
They've talked about enjoying the journey. Take in this moment and enjoy the walkout

04:50:02.460 --> 04:50:04.860
for a grand final taking to the stage.

04:50:18.260 --> 04:50:30.260
Team Vision!

04:50:30.260 --> 04:50:40.260
Not a single series has been dropped by this team.

04:50:40.260 --> 04:50:44.620
They have proven they have what it takes to make it to the Grand Finals through the

04:50:44.620 --> 04:50:50.140
off the bracket. They have everything that they need when it comes to preparation and for a lot of

04:50:50.140 --> 04:50:55.340
them it is the first time walking out here on a grand final but the moment of truth

04:50:55.340 --> 04:50:59.580
arrives now. What sort of utor and spirit will you be facing?

04:51:25.340 --> 04:51:27.340
Spirit!

04:51:29.340 --> 04:51:34.340
A 100% success rate when it comes to TI Grand Finals.

04:51:34.340 --> 04:51:40.340
We've got Spirit walking out there, and I think a little bit of a dismay to some of the Spirit fans.

04:51:40.340 --> 04:51:42.340
It is just hurled with a full head of hair.

04:51:42.340 --> 04:51:47.340
But he doesn't need to make a sacrifice to the Dota Gods to show that he has what it takes

04:51:47.340 --> 04:51:52.340
to potentially be our first Esa three-time TI winner along with Kalatsia

04:51:52.340 --> 04:51:59.340
And so many new players by their side. They've done a time and again bringing in your players changing up their roster and still proving

04:51:59.340 --> 04:52:03.640
They have what it takes when it comes to a brand final when it comes to spirit being in TI form

04:52:03.780 --> 04:52:05.060
They are

04:52:05.060 --> 04:52:10.840
One of the most epic rosters in Dota history. This is their bread and butter. They love this spot

04:52:10.840 --> 04:52:15.220
They love the spot like the crowd the pressure. They are the kings of this domain

04:52:15.220 --> 04:52:22.180
I remember a long time ago once the TI prize pool dropped them saying like we absolutely do not care about that

04:52:22.340 --> 04:52:26.420
That it doesn't matter one day we want to win as many TI's as possible

04:52:26.420 --> 04:52:29.740
TI is the most important tournament and this is the only thing we care about

04:52:29.740 --> 04:52:35.620
They also have the opportunity today to silence all the people that claim that OG are the goats and they are not

04:52:36.460 --> 04:52:42.020
Team spirit are extremely internally motivated players and that's always stood out to me about this team

04:52:42.020 --> 04:52:46.940
Is that they never they don't measure their successes by whatever it means financially?

04:52:46.940 --> 04:52:50.340
They don't look at it by I have X amount of wins. Therefore. I am done

04:52:50.340 --> 04:52:54.860
I've succeeded when you talk to collapse or yatoro. They don't even think about things like that

04:52:54.860 --> 04:52:57.100
They just want to play Dota and they want to be better than everybody

04:52:57.100 --> 04:53:03.220
And I think that's the biggest factor that's led them to have such a long career on this team and get so many of those wins

04:53:03.220 --> 04:53:10.940
I remember back in ti 12 that Seattle ci the amount of times collapse and yatoro talked about how much they wanted to do

04:53:10.940 --> 04:53:17.740
It for lal right they wanted him to be able to lift that ages and I think bringing on people like group and like not me

04:53:17.740 --> 04:53:24.740
I mean, it gives them that extra

04:53:24.740 --> 04:53:26.740
bit of motivation. Because out

04:53:26.740 --> 04:53:27.740
here fans say, I bet you it's

04:53:27.740 --> 04:53:28.740
going to get through again

04:53:28.740 --> 04:53:29.740
through and birds going to

04:53:29.740 --> 04:53:30.740
shave his head. That's what

04:53:30.740 --> 04:53:32.740
he's waiting for. Yeah, not me

04:53:32.740 --> 04:53:33.740
shaved his beard instead. Little

04:53:33.740 --> 04:53:35.740
little switcheroo. But I mean,

04:53:35.740 --> 04:53:36.740
to be honest, he's the rookie.

04:53:36.740 --> 04:53:37.740
You know, you got to take some

04:53:37.740 --> 04:53:40.740
sacrifices for the big dogs now

04:53:40.740 --> 04:53:42.740
and I. We've got some spice

04:53:42.740 --> 04:53:44.740
in the crowd today. There is

04:53:44.740 --> 04:53:45.740
mixed reactions between the

04:53:45.740 --> 04:53:46.740
teams to say the least

04:53:46.740 --> 04:53:51.860
on camera. You know we've got we've got the narratives that we've got the tones that fight had

04:53:51.860 --> 04:53:56.020
the favorite in Team Spirit versus the villain and you know what Team Vision have been happy

04:53:56.020 --> 04:54:00.820
to play the villain all year so long as they won. You know these players they don't care about public

04:54:00.820 --> 04:54:05.860
perception they play incredible Dota and they've shown it to us throughout the season that they

04:54:05.860 --> 04:54:11.780
are the best and can Team Spirit the heroes beat them. Yeah I think I mean you mentioned how

04:54:11.780 --> 04:54:29.780
I think vision is the same way people are not here because of the money or because of this there because here because it matters so much to them because they said it is a goal. This is what they've set their heart on. This is their ego their pride. This is a you know a battle of emotions not of just gameplay.

04:54:29.780 --> 04:54:37.780
There's so much on the line. The pressure how it builds it's unlike anything else that experienced in their lives and now it's the moment to show that you're truly worthy of it.

04:54:37.780 --> 04:54:44.260
it's so phenomenal to get to feel how everyone is looking at these players we've

04:54:44.260 --> 04:54:49.000
all loved the journey that they've taken to make it to a grand finals to see each

04:54:49.000 --> 04:54:52.700
individual player get their flowers that she is from the crowd to feel the

04:54:52.700 --> 04:54:58.140
energy that TI 15 in Shanghai has been able to offer us it only makes me

04:54:58.140 --> 04:55:04.580
question just how excited everyone in the crowd is for our grand finals

04:55:04.580 --> 04:55:14.580
Ladies and gentlemen, it is time to get the final series of the International 2026 Underway.

04:55:14.580 --> 04:55:27.580
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the final stage of the 2020 International Tournament.

04:55:27.580 --> 04:55:35.580
But, hold up. Before we kick off the grand final tonight, I want to ask everyone here some questions.

04:55:35.580 --> 04:55:37.580
Okay, let's hear it.

04:55:48.580 --> 04:55:53.580
Wait a second. Are you asking how many people are here for their very first TI?

04:55:53.580 --> 04:55:55.580
What?

04:55:55.580 --> 04:55:58.580
What's in the dog? All right. You're very smart.

04:56:09.580 --> 04:56:16.580
So you're asking how many people were here from TI nine seven years ago here in Shanghai and now they're back again

04:56:16.580 --> 04:56:24.580
That's a lot of history 15 years of the international and now we are celebrating and a very important anniversary

04:56:24.580 --> 04:56:34.700
But in that time, so many players, teams, coaches, they have poured their blood, sweat, and tears to reach this moment.

04:56:34.700 --> 04:56:42.260
距离第一届国际邀请赛已经过去了15年,而距离TI9也过去了7年。

04:56:42.260 --> 04:56:51.260
当年那些熬夜陪你看比赛的朋友们,可能很久没有联系了,可能还都在你身边,而有一些可能成了云玩家。

04:56:51.260 --> 04:56:58.760
This year, 80 players set foot here in Shanghai, and now we are down to the final 10.

04:56:58.760 --> 04:57:04.260
And along the way, we may have said our final goodbyes to some of the most storied players

04:57:04.260 --> 04:57:08.260
who have written their name in the history of this game.

04:57:21.260 --> 04:57:26.260
and we are not stopping to say goodbye to them.

04:57:26.260 --> 04:57:28.260
For example, in this year's international competition,

04:57:28.260 --> 04:57:31.260
we will say goodbye to Smell and Crit.

04:57:45.260 --> 04:57:49.260
And behind us is the last two teams of this finals.

04:57:49.260 --> 04:58:12.260
On one side, it's Team Vision. They came so close to reaching this point just one year ago in Hamburg before their run was cut short at third place by extreme gaming.

04:58:12.260 --> 04:58:14.260
On the one hand, it's Team Vision.

04:58:14.260 --> 04:58:18.260
A year ago, they only had one step away from this stage.

04:58:18.260 --> 04:58:21.260
But they were blocked by XG outside the door.

04:58:30.260 --> 04:58:32.260
And today, they are standing here.

04:58:32.260 --> 04:58:36.260
They want to prove that they can do it again.

04:58:42.260 --> 04:58:52.800
What more could I say that you aren't already, they won the hearts and minds of everyone

04:58:52.800 --> 04:59:11.380
in 2021 and they have simply built on that legacy ever since.

04:59:11.380 --> 04:59:16.620
Some of the players may have changed, but the storied core remains and they are here fighting

04:59:16.620 --> 04:59:32.540
for a chance to potentially make a third inscription on this ages.

04:59:32.540 --> 04:59:36.700
These two teams have taken very different paths to get to this best of five, however.

04:59:36.700 --> 04:59:44.900
made their way through the upper bracket defeating all of the remaining three teams in fourth third and potentially even second place

04:59:52.580 --> 04:59:54.580
Spirit however, I've had a

04:59:55.100 --> 04:59:58.140
Different journey, but arguably a scarier journey

04:59:58.140 --> 05:00:02.260
They got sent to lower bracket by vision and since then they have crushed

05:00:02.620 --> 05:00:06.460
Every single one of their opponents to oh in the lower bracket

05:00:06.700 --> 05:00:10.300
On the other hand, although Spirit was sent to the敗者組,

05:00:10.300 --> 05:00:12.700
their footsteps never stopped.

05:00:12.700 --> 05:00:15.700
They are still the big devil's team.

05:00:25.700 --> 05:00:28.500
Speaking of which, let's ask the audience here.

05:00:28.500 --> 05:00:30.700
Who are you here to support?

05:00:36.700 --> 05:00:47.020
I think it's probably half.

05:00:47.020 --> 05:00:49.860
There's only one way to find out.

05:00:49.860 --> 05:01:02.420
Who here is cheering for Team Spirit?

05:01:02.420 --> 05:01:04.420
I don't think it's half and half.

05:01:04.420 --> 05:01:20.640
But I know I can get one thing that everyone can agree on, who here wants to see some good

05:01:20.640 --> 05:01:29.140
donor!

05:01:29.140 --> 05:01:33.340
It has been a long journey to get to this point of, and these two teams have been fighting

05:01:33.340 --> 05:01:37.500
all year long and even longer than that for many of the players.

05:01:37.500 --> 05:01:41.020
没有错,我们本届邀请在进行到今天

05:01:41.020 --> 05:01:43.660
最初有80位选手来到了上海

05:01:43.660 --> 05:01:48.300
而最终只有10位选手留在了我们总决赛的舞台上

05:01:49.500 --> 05:01:52.220
It never ceases to amaze me the history of this game.

05:01:52.220 --> 05:01:57.580
15 years of the international and esport that has survived the test of time

05:01:57.580 --> 05:02:00.220
and I'm looking around this crowd right now

05:02:00.220 --> 05:02:02.860
and I do not see any empty seats.

05:02:02.860 --> 05:02:07.220
You all are amazing for showing your commitment to this game.

05:02:07.220 --> 05:02:10.500
In these 15 years, we have witnessed countless teams,

05:02:10.500 --> 05:02:11.700
players and coaches,

05:02:11.700 --> 05:02:14.820
who have put a lot of sweat and tears on the stage today,

05:02:14.820 --> 05:02:16.100
in order to stand on the stage today.

05:02:16.100 --> 05:02:18.900
And all of us, the Dota 2 players,

05:02:18.900 --> 05:02:20.980
are sitting here with us,

05:02:20.980 --> 05:02:23.100
thanking you for accompanying us,

05:02:23.100 --> 05:02:26.980
thanking you for being here for the past 15 years.

05:02:26.980 --> 05:02:34.980
So then, without further ado, ladies and gentlemen, it is time for the prince to face the king.

05:02:49.220 --> 05:02:54.500
It is time to see which legend can prove mastery of the game as a coach.

05:02:56.980 --> 05:03:03.980
And it is time for new names to inscribe their place in history.

05:03:03.980 --> 05:03:14.980
Shanghai, are you ready?

05:03:14.980 --> 05:03:21.580
Hey are you ready?

05:03:21.580 --> 05:03:32.740
Such a beautiful arena here.

05:03:32.740 --> 05:03:33.740
A Full House!

05:03:33.740 --> 05:03:40.520
A lot of fans coming from every way here to celebrate what is our 15th international.

05:03:40.520 --> 05:03:48.680
and there's chance for vision. There's a lot of chance for spirit is the way in which I will

05:03:48.680 --> 05:03:53.480
coin this and I love just what narrative we've been able to improve for ourselves between these

05:03:53.480 --> 05:04:00.040
10 players. But you know, I really hope the crowd bias lights a fire in Team Vision and in Puffy

05:04:00.040 --> 05:04:06.040
because they've been the greatest team this TI. They are the strongest players and I would only

05:04:06.040 --> 05:04:11.720
hope that this gives them the the need to rise to the occasion to prove themselves even more and I

05:04:11.720 --> 05:04:15.160
feel like these grand finals are going to be exceptional. I feel like starting out as a

05:04:15.160 --> 05:04:19.560
techies player for 9 class, like being the guy that used to place these minds, always annoy each

05:04:19.560 --> 05:04:23.880
other. I think there's nothing he wants more than to just silence all the haters. I think he

05:04:23.880 --> 05:04:27.560
loves this. I think you could be no better situation for him to be in than to have the

05:04:27.560 --> 05:04:31.320
crowd cheer against them and have him to end their fun. This is the stage you do it.

05:04:31.320 --> 05:04:33.920
But the call is to ask for it, he wanted the Prince,

05:04:33.920 --> 05:04:35.920
the first king, but if you come to the king,

05:04:35.920 --> 05:04:37.200
you best not miss.

05:04:38.880 --> 05:04:43.880
Team Vision versus Team Spirit, Grand Finals, game one.

05:04:51.800 --> 05:04:54.840
A lot rides on the line of a game number one here.

05:04:54.840 --> 05:04:57.240
You always want to be taking a best of five

05:04:57.240 --> 05:04:59.280
with your best foot forward here

05:04:59.280 --> 05:05:01.280
and it's going to start off with, hopefully,

05:05:01.280 --> 05:05:06.280
strong drop. It is going to be

05:05:06.280 --> 05:05:08.280
vision that will have our first

05:05:08.280 --> 05:05:10.280
pick, which some teams love.

05:05:10.280 --> 05:05:11.280
Some teams thrive on it. Other

05:05:11.280 --> 05:05:12.280
teams. They want that second

05:05:12.280 --> 05:05:14.280
pick because they want to be

05:05:14.280 --> 05:05:16.280
able to have the overall got your

05:05:16.280 --> 05:05:18.280
pick here and looking at our

05:05:18.280 --> 05:05:20.280
first phase bands, Bane,

05:05:20.280 --> 05:05:21.280
Clockwork, Wyvern, Coddle,

05:05:21.280 --> 05:05:23.280
Earth Ferry, Tree and Bounty

05:05:23.280 --> 05:05:25.280
Hunter taken out with vision.

05:05:25.280 --> 05:05:26.280
Not too worried about opening

05:05:26.280 --> 05:05:27.280
up with an Ember here,

05:05:27.280 --> 05:05:29.280
despite we know the threat

05:05:29.280 --> 05:05:30.280
of a slot. The big three

05:05:30.280 --> 05:05:34.920
and the natures profit and to see team vision place the emphasis on the ember spirit. They did

05:05:34.920 --> 05:05:38.760
their homework. They don't want to give it to Laurel. They're saying that our opener in natures

05:05:38.760 --> 05:05:45.720
profit is not as important as taking away ember from spirits mid-leaning. This is very interesting.

05:05:45.720 --> 05:05:50.280
I think this is a sort of a calling of the bluff vision. I picked this because Laurel historically

05:05:50.280 --> 05:05:54.360
is not someone that wants to play it. He's sort of more weird, carry mid heroes. He wants to

05:05:54.360 --> 05:05:58.360
play the stuns, the space makers for Yatoro, who's the real star of the show. And so

05:05:58.360 --> 05:06:02.120
vision is saying, hey, Slark is obviously super good against Ember, but we think he will play it.

05:06:02.120 --> 05:06:07.320
And Laurel says, you sure, buddy? It's kind of cool because he also did say in his interview that I

05:06:07.320 --> 05:06:11.320
don't think this matchup is real. I don't think it works. But you know, one humbling,

05:06:11.320 --> 05:06:15.240
one humbling later, and you're on the train, you're like, oh, you know what, if they pick Ember,

05:06:15.240 --> 05:06:18.920
give me the Slark. I will cook them. And the humbling came from vision themselves. That was

05:06:18.920 --> 05:06:22.840
the matchup on which it happened. We saw this just a couple of days ago where it was

05:06:22.840 --> 05:06:27.640
reversed. It was Spirit with the Ember and Vision with the Slark.

05:06:27.640 --> 05:06:30.720
And I think Vision will have considered the scenario that they would have picked Slark

05:06:30.720 --> 05:06:35.160
here and if I know a nine class, I know that he is definitely considering to play this Ember

05:06:35.160 --> 05:06:39.720
4. We saw the Ember carry as a potential flex from in one of the Liquid series and I think

05:06:39.720 --> 05:06:43.200
flexing it to support may actually even be a better option. Ember 4 has been something

05:06:43.200 --> 05:06:46.400
we've seen in the past. It's not the worst thing ever with the Distiller playing

05:06:46.400 --> 05:06:50.160
up slight chains and actually not playing up the Flameguard is definitely a viable

05:06:50.160 --> 05:06:53.040
play style and if you want to swap lanes I think it definitely could be an option.

05:06:53.040 --> 05:06:58.000
While I do think the 9 class of all sort of absolutely love to do that, I think the

05:06:58.000 --> 05:07:03.280
puppified version of 9 class will not be allowed to partake in such things. I mean we heard from him

05:07:03.280 --> 05:07:08.080
at EWC that puppy was that G towing so many of his hero suggestions that he asked him

05:07:08.080 --> 05:07:12.400
all that tournament if he could play position 4 juggernaut and he never got it. I just somehow

05:07:12.400 --> 05:07:16.480
don't see them going down that route today. I will say, beatling juggernaut position 4 and

05:07:16.480 --> 05:07:22.680
I feel like it's a different situation right because let's say we go down the hypothetical of the Ember spirit is a position for in this game

05:07:22.680 --> 05:07:26.100
Laurel is now playing Slark and he doesn't want to be playing Slark

05:07:26.100 --> 05:07:29.760
And now suddenly vision has changed the dynamic of this game to be a game that they like

05:07:29.760 --> 05:07:33.880
And I feel like when they look the best is when they make the game into their game

05:07:33.880 --> 05:07:37.400
They take control of the draft in that way right they force Laurel onto here

05:07:37.400 --> 05:07:39.040
He doesn't want to be playing and a matchup

05:07:39.040 --> 05:07:42.240
He doesn't really love and when I remember personally playing tinker

05:07:42.240 --> 05:07:48.580
Which was like one of my favorite heroes at the point into nine-class TA and I was like I've never played this matchup in my entire life

05:07:48.580 --> 05:07:49.520
I don't know what's going on

05:07:49.520 --> 05:07:53.840
And I think that's one of the things that makes nine-class such a special player that he can do that here. I

05:07:54.480 --> 05:08:00.240
Also love this dark willa pick from spirit because it's been one of vision's most picked and most successful four heroes and to say hey

05:08:00.240 --> 05:08:03.920
This is here you rely on you really like it in your drafts. We're gonna ban your cobble

05:08:03.920 --> 05:08:08.800
We're gonna take your dark will all I think spirit in finals is incredibly good at taking you out of your comfort zone of

05:08:08.800 --> 05:08:12.400
of understanding the heroes that you really want, especially in the final, right?

05:08:12.400 --> 05:08:15.500
You want to play the stuff you've been playing, the stuff you're comfortable on,

05:08:15.500 --> 05:08:17.400
and they're going to poke at that, they're going to poke holes,

05:08:17.400 --> 05:08:21.000
and make you prove that you can play something you haven't been playing the whole tournament.

05:08:22.500 --> 05:08:23.700
It's really cool to see.

05:08:23.700 --> 05:08:27.800
I feel like right now we're in a position where both sides are like not letting go of the draft.

05:08:27.800 --> 05:08:29.700
You know, they're both trying to pull it in their direction,

05:08:29.700 --> 05:08:33.200
make you play our game, and neither team is really giving it up yet.

05:08:33.500 --> 05:08:36.400
There are still quite a few things left in the pool though.

05:08:36.400 --> 05:08:41.600
The Lina, the Lone Druid, the Nature's Prophet. Nature's Prophet has been team visions go to this entire tournament.

05:08:41.600 --> 05:08:50.200
It's only lost one time in the hands of Satanic, and the only way to beat it has been to consistently run at it with heroes with tempo non-stop.

05:08:50.200 --> 05:08:56.000
And the mid-slark, while it's going to shut down Ember effectively in that mid lane, doesn't provide the same tempo.

05:08:58.000 --> 05:09:03.800
I also would just love to point out how interesting and how much the drafts change over the international.

05:09:03.800 --> 05:09:07.880
At the beginning of it, we have first pick Treance and Banes and so on, normal heroes we see.

05:09:07.880 --> 05:09:09.720
Now at the end, there is a first pick Slark.

05:09:09.720 --> 05:09:13.720
I think that evolution of Dota and how the meta changes and the counterpicking,

05:09:13.720 --> 05:09:19.800
the creativity from the teams, I think it's such a fascinating part to see that journey that the draft goes through.

05:09:19.800 --> 05:09:23.320
We also talked about how impactful the supports have been coming into the series.

05:09:23.320 --> 05:09:25.880
For me especially, I think about Rue, not me.

05:09:25.880 --> 05:09:28.360
And if you look at the bands that Vision decided to go with,

05:09:28.360 --> 05:09:30.280
as Mayor points out, all the cores are in the pool.

05:09:30.280 --> 05:09:33.320
Why is that? Well, because you have some of the best support players in the world,

05:09:33.320 --> 05:09:34.620
And they're forcing out these

05:09:34.620 --> 05:09:37.620
fans. Wow. Yeah, and I have

05:09:37.620 --> 05:09:38.720
been let through because this

05:09:38.720 --> 05:09:39.820
it goes back to what you were

05:09:39.820 --> 05:09:41.220
referencing here, Quinn, where

05:09:41.220 --> 05:09:42.720
there is this massive cycle

05:09:42.720 --> 05:09:44.320
that is happening where I

05:09:44.320 --> 05:09:45.420
wasn't looked at at the start

05:09:45.420 --> 05:09:46.720
of our TI. It wasn't looked

05:09:46.720 --> 05:09:48.020
at in the group stages. It hit

05:09:48.020 --> 05:09:49.320
a peak where everyone was

05:09:49.320 --> 05:09:50.820
first face banning it. You

05:09:50.820 --> 05:09:51.920
might be able to call the

05:09:51.920 --> 05:09:53.020
bluff of some teams, but

05:09:53.020 --> 05:09:54.520
ultimately you are afraid

05:09:54.520 --> 05:09:55.420
of what it can do either

05:09:55.420 --> 05:09:57.720
as a mid or a carry here.

05:09:57.720 --> 05:09:58.620
Yeah, and it's a hero.

05:09:58.620 --> 05:09:59.520
This fear does not really

05:09:59.520 --> 05:10:00.420
touch and we haven't really

05:10:00.420 --> 05:10:01.720
seen vision play as a core

05:10:01.720 --> 05:10:03.120
either, but they're pulling

05:10:03.120 --> 05:10:06.960
out of the hat saying, hey, we've got this extra trump card up our sleeve, but now you

05:10:06.960 --> 05:10:10.320
need to have answers for it because it's a hero we've seen when played well on core

05:10:10.320 --> 05:10:14.160
before the borderline unbeatable. The question is, can vision actually execute it to the

05:10:14.160 --> 05:10:17.800
level that maybe some of these other teams that have not fallen by the wayside can?

05:10:17.800 --> 05:10:21.360
It's quite heads up of them to take it though, because Wild Spirit haven't run it. It would

05:10:21.360 --> 05:10:26.400
have been an excellent thing to combo with the Slark. And we have to mention, nine

05:10:26.400 --> 05:10:30.480
class was playing position four IO for the last two months while the hero did

05:10:30.480 --> 05:10:35.040
shift in priority to core and looks better as a core. This is still one of their more comfortable

05:10:35.040 --> 05:10:40.160
strategies if they flex it to support. And he's a greedy 4 IO player. He's not like GH playing

05:10:40.160 --> 05:10:44.560
the enabling role. He's farming those two camps. He's max leveling Wisps and he's

05:10:44.560 --> 05:10:48.960
taking as much gold as he can. I also see a lot of the traditional heroes that you would want

05:10:48.960 --> 05:10:52.880
to play against the IO be banned out. You see Underlord very good percentage damage,

05:10:52.880 --> 05:10:57.440
good roots, has a way to counter the relocate, he relocates in, you can gate in. Nowadays

05:10:57.440 --> 05:11:03.120
The gate also has the route on top of it. So it's a tricky matchup for the IO. Same thing with the doom stops all healing

05:11:03.280 --> 05:11:07.240
One of the drawbacks to IO is that you have no stuns. So Bane is quite effective

05:11:07.240 --> 05:11:11.360
It's easy to get fiends grip off and the same thing for the winter wyvern with a curse on the relocate

05:11:12.080 --> 05:11:15.360
Yeah, I think this is definitely something planned and something they said hey

05:11:15.360 --> 05:11:16.800
We're gonna consider this for second phase

05:11:16.800 --> 05:11:20.480
We'll look at the first phase see how it goes and then potentially we can alter our bands

05:11:20.480 --> 05:11:22.880
Get out the doom in the Underlord and then we get a you know

05:11:22.880 --> 05:11:25.180
will be deemed to be a free IO in the second phase.

05:11:25.180 --> 05:11:27.840
And this is very much not something I think Spear necessarily

05:11:27.840 --> 05:11:29.600
would have expected because they haven't prioritized it

05:11:29.600 --> 05:11:30.560
up till this point.

05:11:30.560 --> 05:11:33.320
And so they need to respond on the fly, right?

05:11:33.320 --> 05:11:35.200
All your prep, some of it's out the window now.

05:11:35.200 --> 05:11:37.360
You're flying by the seat of your pants.

05:11:38.840 --> 05:11:39.880
Wow.

05:11:39.880 --> 05:11:41.160
I think that's a testament to it.

05:11:41.160 --> 05:11:43.120
Disruptor is a classic combo to IO.

05:11:43.120 --> 05:11:43.960
You press the relocate,

05:11:43.960 --> 05:11:45.360
but you get glints right back out

05:11:45.360 --> 05:11:48.240
and it removes a lot of this early snowballing potential

05:11:48.240 --> 05:11:50.680
that IO has where you can get involved in these kills,

05:11:50.680 --> 05:11:53.600
explode his GPM and get online super quickly.

05:11:53.600 --> 05:11:55.920
A brand new hero at the Tiagra and finals.

05:11:55.920 --> 05:11:57.080
I love this so much.

05:11:57.080 --> 05:11:58.200
They've thought about this.

05:11:58.200 --> 05:11:59.840
They've gone through every single scenario

05:11:59.840 --> 05:12:00.960
and at the end of the day,

05:12:00.960 --> 05:12:02.560
it's not necessarily a hero.

05:12:02.560 --> 05:12:04.080
People have full faith in,

05:12:04.080 --> 05:12:06.080
but on paper and on execution,

05:12:06.080 --> 05:12:08.960
it should be able to give spirit that slight advantage.

05:12:09.840 --> 05:12:12.520
I am so curious to see how this will unfold

05:12:12.520 --> 05:12:14.560
because Disruptor isn't in the strongest state

05:12:14.560 --> 05:12:16.560
that he's been, but he does make a lot of sense,

05:12:16.560 --> 05:12:18.600
not just with the IO, but with the Slark.

05:12:18.600 --> 05:12:20.040
For him, it's Slark to set tempo.

05:12:20.040 --> 05:12:22.740
He needs the force that can play on his night vision.

05:12:22.740 --> 05:12:24.640
And if you pair up the glimpse with the Slark,

05:12:24.640 --> 05:12:27.800
just de-warding, positioning his body aggressively,

05:12:27.800 --> 05:12:30.680
the amount of kills that can be developed

05:12:30.680 --> 05:12:32.480
between Spirit are gonna be crazy.

05:12:32.480 --> 05:12:33.320
Yeah, absolutely.

05:12:33.320 --> 05:12:34.960
And it makes sense, right?

05:12:34.960 --> 05:12:37.120
I think one of the things that Spirit has managed to do

05:12:37.120 --> 05:12:38.840
throughout the last stages of this tournament

05:12:38.840 --> 05:12:41.240
is to find heroes that are picked with purpose.

05:12:41.240 --> 05:12:43.960
The hero has clearly a reason to be in this game.

05:12:43.960 --> 05:12:45.320
It's good against the IO.

05:12:45.320 --> 05:12:47.200
It's even good against the Ember in many ways.

05:12:47.200 --> 05:12:48.400
You get any sort of stun on the Ember.

05:12:48.400 --> 05:12:50.000
You get the static storm on top of it.

05:12:50.000 --> 05:12:55.040
and he just dies. And against Verona, she wants to leap away, and we've seen problems in this patch

05:12:55.040 --> 05:12:59.280
where Verona's like GH was playing it, it was like 9-1 and 17, because you just can't kill him.

05:12:59.280 --> 05:13:01.240
But with Grimms, that suddenly becomes very easy.

05:13:02.000 --> 05:13:06.520
Yeah, it's the way Team Spirit drafts. They see what you have, and they respond to it on theoretical level.

05:13:06.520 --> 05:13:08.600
They're not trying to pick the same stuff every game.

05:13:08.600 --> 05:13:11.560
They're trying to pick what makes sense if everyone was playing perfect.

05:13:11.560 --> 05:13:14.520
And I think that's such a cool and interesting way of drafting.

05:13:14.520 --> 05:13:19.000
But there definitely is, you know, the risk when picking Disruptor that the hero is just not that good right now.

05:13:19.000 --> 05:13:23.740
It's a great game for it, but you're walking into leading its axe heroes going to be pressing battle hunger on you off cool

05:13:23.740 --> 05:13:27.300
Down and there is that burden of execution disruptor wants to play from ahead

05:13:27.300 --> 05:13:32.020
He hates playing from behind if to chase people through to use glimpse and actually have it be effective

05:13:32.020 --> 05:13:34.020
So there's a risk in lands

05:13:34.300 --> 05:13:40.300
Yeah, the game can get out of hand really quickly for a disruptor on the losing team when we look at team vision

05:13:40.820 --> 05:13:44.300
We see the main combination in their draft and the slight chains into arrow

05:13:44.300 --> 05:13:50.860
This is going to be how they're going to play through the mid-game and Dark Willow and Destructor as supports are very susceptible to dying to this combination

05:13:50.860 --> 05:13:57.300
They have no means of defending themselves. There really is no counter play outside of being the aggressor yourselves on Team Spirit

05:13:57.340 --> 05:14:03.020
Yeah, absolutely another cool factor about vision's draft is like where is any of these heroes going?

05:14:03.020 --> 05:14:08.060
We still don't know is this a position for Ember potentially is this IO going to be a 4?

05:14:08.140 --> 05:14:13.620
They have a lot of ability to adopt their entire draft with this last pick and I think Spirit like we said

05:14:13.620 --> 05:14:19.080
They like to conceptually beat what you're setting up for and by putting themselves in this position where we're just not gonna

05:14:19.080 --> 05:14:21.240
Tell you what our draft wants to do at the end of the day

05:14:21.360 --> 05:14:26.040
Gives them that advantage and I think it doesn't allow spirit to have that edge that they've had in all the other drafts

05:14:26.040 --> 05:14:28.320
Seating up to this grand final on top of that

05:14:28.320 --> 05:14:31.960
It also makes your last bands very cloudy because you don't know where these roles are going

05:14:31.960 --> 05:14:33.980
It's much easier to miss on those last bands

05:14:33.980 --> 05:14:38.140
But you would typically want to be very accurate and take out some key heroes that could be game-winning picks

05:14:38.360 --> 05:14:41.520
Counter picks against your draft. Well, you don't really know what those are anymore

05:14:41.520 --> 05:14:45.680
You can see them banning the kez. So they're definitely considering just being a support I.O.

05:14:46.240 --> 05:14:48.360
I mean, that's the only thing we've seen from vision throughout the year, right?

05:14:48.360 --> 05:14:49.880
I don't think we've seen a satanic I.O.

05:14:50.080 --> 05:14:52.640
It's been line class. It's been his signature.

05:14:52.640 --> 05:14:55.080
Could it still not be a mid I.O. though?

05:14:55.080 --> 05:14:57.000
And the M before that you guys were talking about,

05:14:57.000 --> 05:14:59.560
which is why they're doubling down that if that's what they want to go,

05:14:59.560 --> 05:15:03.040
at least satanic won't get something that he's fucked up on and felt comfortable with.

05:15:03.720 --> 05:15:04.560
It's definitely possible.

05:15:04.560 --> 05:15:08.520
And I think they're trying to cover their bases because they're not entirely sure.

05:15:08.680 --> 05:15:11.200
No one is besides the six people in that vision booth.

05:15:11.200 --> 05:15:15.040
Nobody knows what the plan is with this IO is pre-concocted.

05:15:15.040 --> 05:15:18.800
For this game, we're going to surprise them, we're going to get off the jump in the right way,

05:15:18.800 --> 05:15:20.240
and so we just don't know yet.

05:15:20.720 --> 05:15:23.520
I mean, I think even for vision, right, you have the option of like...

05:15:24.520 --> 05:15:30.000
Because I think they're kind of a team that will try to do everything they possibly can to get the setup correct from the start.

05:15:30.280 --> 05:15:34.200
So depending on what they feel like is, you know, do we want a satanic hero here?

05:15:34.200 --> 05:15:35.600
Does the satanic just play the IO?

05:15:35.600 --> 05:15:39.120
It looks like he's pretty quiet, so I'm leaning towards him potentially being the IO.

05:15:39.120 --> 05:15:41.120
And it being a new midfielder

05:15:41.840 --> 05:15:48.120
Yeah, you often can gauge who's picking the hero just like who's talking. Yeah near the end of the draft and I agree with that rationale

05:15:48.640 --> 05:15:52.880
I also think I've seen him played in pubs. I've played against his IO in pubs

05:15:52.880 --> 05:15:58.760
So it is something that he has practiced. He's not incapable of doing it's not completely blind even though it may be new to officials

05:16:00.200 --> 05:16:06.080
And they're gonna they're gonna tank them in matchups. So no one's saying I picked the ember. It's fine

05:16:06.080 --> 05:16:11.120
I can deal with the Slark. We've seen many mid players this tournament say that and they cannot deal with the Slark

05:16:11.120 --> 05:16:15.300
And so no one has to prove it see if he's different from the rest he's cut from a different cloth

05:16:15.940 --> 05:16:18.960
And the Sun Tor is still in the pool. I can I thought you see this

05:16:19.640 --> 05:16:24.320
I'll carry you can just play for wave drag his farm on the Sun Tor and just provide this stone for your team

05:16:24.320 --> 05:16:26.840
It went ignored this drop

05:16:28.400 --> 05:16:31.440
Yeah, it's solid. It's a hero that will really never be bad

05:16:31.440 --> 05:16:37.400
It's just solid in lane gives you very that is a scary lane axe, but wink that is a lot of early potential a lot of kill threat

05:16:38.040 --> 05:16:40.040
I'm dying a cool

05:16:40.080 --> 05:16:44.200
Okay, I mean I love the concept of just running at this carry aisle with decay

05:16:44.760 --> 05:16:49.640
Non-stop as the offline on dying and just trying to make it. Oh, it's mid-Ion. They actually swapped

05:16:50.360 --> 05:16:51.240
really

05:16:51.240 --> 05:16:53.520
It's a satanic ember. Wow

05:16:54.040 --> 05:16:58.880
So then how is an ember on dying lane when you don't get to just run out of Nioh now?

05:16:58.880 --> 05:17:05.640
I honestly think this on dying is gonna absolutely cause issues for this ember it is a really tricky lane

05:17:05.640 --> 05:17:07.640
Ember on safe lane is already not

05:17:07.760 --> 05:17:10.700
Quite as powerful as it is in mid. You don't get the bottle refills

05:17:10.700 --> 05:17:16.040
You don't have that constant sustain coming out and on dying creates a lot of pressure and on top of that

05:17:16.040 --> 05:17:18.880
There's a dark willow there. He doesn't really have nice escape mechanics

05:17:18.880 --> 05:17:24.000
This support in Marana doesn't super help him out in that regard either. So I think for spirit

05:17:24.000 --> 05:17:26.000
This ends up looking quite scary

05:17:26.000 --> 05:17:31.840
It's also a situation vision. I think they're not going to be super comfortable on satanic

05:17:31.840 --> 05:17:36.020
I'm sure he's capable of playing amber, but it's certainly not as bread butter and same thing with no one on I.O

05:17:36.040 --> 05:17:40.160
So you're walking into the first game of the TI finals. There's pressure. There's nerves

05:17:40.160 --> 05:17:45.320
There's the weight of trying to lift the aegis and now you're on something that you're not quite used to that can affect your

05:17:45.320 --> 05:17:46.720
Game play in very negative ways

05:17:46.720 --> 05:17:50.960
I would say goes both ways though in their defense because I don't think Laurel is like the happiest spark player

05:17:50.960 --> 05:17:54.200
And I would imagine this mid lane IO is gonna absolutely free farm

05:17:54.200 --> 05:17:58.480
The arc doesn't really have a way to pressure, so there's going to be a free farming IO in the mid lane and

05:17:59.240 --> 05:18:02.320
So for both teams and this is something special about grandfathers, right?

05:18:02.320 --> 05:18:06.640
They both understand each other so well that they've managed to take both sides out of their comfort zone

05:18:06.640 --> 05:18:10.960
But that is where spirit should depend on their sidelines. They've got us up on one side

05:18:10.960 --> 05:18:15.200
They've got core on dying on the other side to a very good lanes. How far can they take them?

05:18:15.600 --> 05:18:19.320
The vision held their cards close to the chest for that whole draft

05:18:19.320 --> 05:18:24.080
And at the end, we go to mid-Io and a carry and this burden if only there were a way in

05:18:24.080 --> 05:18:27.720
which we could get into their minds and understand more of that thinking.

05:18:27.720 --> 05:18:28.720
Well, we can do that.

05:18:28.720 --> 05:18:30.320
It's to know in puppy.

05:18:30.320 --> 05:18:31.320
Thank you.

05:18:31.320 --> 05:18:32.320
Yes.

05:18:32.320 --> 05:18:35.200
I am a joined by coach of a vision puppy.

05:18:35.200 --> 05:18:37.880
Welcome back to TI grand finals, my man.

05:18:37.880 --> 05:18:42.200
And I mean, no disrespect when I say this, but after the past few years of your Dota

05:18:42.200 --> 05:18:47.520
career, were you ever wondering if you would be able to make it back here?

05:18:47.520 --> 05:18:51.160
I thought I would be here if I just had a better team, maybe.

05:18:51.160 --> 05:18:51.960
That's it.

05:18:51.960 --> 05:18:54.360
So you're just like all my pop teammates, then?

05:18:54.360 --> 05:18:55.440
Yeah, fucking teammates.

05:18:55.440 --> 05:18:57.000
No, I mean, it was a rough time.

05:18:57.000 --> 05:18:58.120
Maybe I needed a vacation.

05:18:58.120 --> 05:18:59.200
Maybe I needed something.

05:18:59.200 --> 05:19:03.160
But overall, I always thought that I know how to play Dota,

05:19:03.160 --> 05:19:05.120
or at least I know how to win Dota.

05:19:05.120 --> 05:19:06.880
You've proven that time and time again,

05:19:06.880 --> 05:19:09.120
and now you're ready to prove it in a best of five.

05:19:09.120 --> 05:19:11.080
And in a best of five, I'm wondering,

05:19:11.080 --> 05:19:14.040
how do you approach banning and drafting?

05:19:14.040 --> 05:19:16.160
Do you get to give yourself more of a leash?

05:19:16.160 --> 05:19:18.160
because you're like, well, I'm not gonna get eliminated

05:19:18.160 --> 05:19:20.200
after two games of experimentation.

05:19:21.000 --> 05:19:24.920
Yeah, but this is not necessarily an experiment.

05:19:24.920 --> 05:19:26.680
This is something you've tried.

05:19:26.680 --> 05:19:28.440
So if it works, it's great.

05:19:28.440 --> 05:19:30.760
If it doesn't, well, we've tried it.

05:19:30.760 --> 05:19:31.720
We just...

05:19:31.720 --> 05:19:34.320
And the this that I'm assuming you're referring to

05:19:34.320 --> 05:19:35.560
is no one on I.O.

05:19:35.560 --> 05:19:38.200
He has zero competitive games on this hero

05:19:38.200 --> 05:19:41.360
and you're debuting it now at TI Grand Finals.

05:19:41.360 --> 05:19:42.800
That's what the TI is for.

05:19:42.800 --> 05:19:48.540
And also what TI is for is watching the games puppy. Thank you very much for the interview as we send it to game number one

05:19:49.280 --> 05:19:54.600
Thank you very much. There's an army and puppy. It's time ladies and gentlemen to get into the grand finals here of the international

05:19:55.120 --> 05:19:59.840
2026 team spirit up against team vision for everybody around the world

05:20:00.320 --> 05:20:03.120
They're just so excited to see these two teams play now

05:20:03.120 --> 05:20:07.240
We're getting them going head-to-head in this best of five for the ages of champions

05:20:07.240 --> 05:20:12.420
You couldn't ask for anything more the question is what do we start to talk about right? There's story lines

05:20:12.800 --> 05:20:15.240
There's incredible different type of style hero picks.

05:20:15.240 --> 05:20:17.760
There's new heroes being picked in the grand final.

05:20:17.760 --> 05:20:18.920
We're going to disrupt them.

05:20:18.920 --> 05:20:20.440
I mean, I don't even know where to begin, right?

05:20:20.440 --> 05:20:23.320
So yeah, Vision, changing things up quite a bit here.

05:20:23.320 --> 05:20:24.320
Spirit with more.

05:20:24.320 --> 05:20:25.320
You can just look at it, right?

05:20:25.320 --> 05:20:27.800
A bit more of a normal approach, heavy team fight,

05:20:27.800 --> 05:20:29.160
strong carry pick.

05:20:29.160 --> 05:20:32.880
We have to talk about the young prodigy of Satanic

05:20:32.880 --> 05:20:34.240
playing something different on a set.

05:20:34.240 --> 05:20:35.400
Very different.

05:20:35.400 --> 05:20:37.600
While Yatoro, the legend carry himself,

05:20:37.600 --> 05:20:39.920
playing something much more standard.

05:20:39.920 --> 05:20:41.600
I don't know where to even start.

05:20:41.600 --> 05:20:43.800
Yeah, I mean, how is that matchup gonna go down?

05:20:43.800 --> 05:20:45.300
We're gonna look forward to the clashes

05:20:45.300 --> 05:20:47.180
when it inevitably gets to the point

05:20:47.180 --> 05:20:49.680
where these two carries are gonna have to meet head to head.

05:20:49.680 --> 05:20:53.400
But a confident move here from Team Vision

05:20:53.400 --> 05:20:55.280
and a risky one, you know, Puppet said,

05:20:55.280 --> 05:20:56.960
game one, trying something different.

05:20:56.960 --> 05:20:59.240
It's TI, it's when, it's the time, apparently,

05:20:59.240 --> 05:21:01.560
to try something a little new in game one

05:21:01.560 --> 05:21:02.520
of the Grand Finals.

05:21:02.520 --> 05:21:04.240
I'm all for it and I'm not surprised.

05:21:04.240 --> 05:21:05.960
I'm sure if this Grand Finals goes on,

05:21:05.960 --> 05:21:08.560
we're gonna see both teams bring out some strategies

05:21:08.560 --> 05:21:10.360
that we're yet to see in the entire tournament.

05:21:10.360 --> 05:21:12.960
We're already getting here in this first game from them.

05:21:14.460 --> 05:21:16.560
So, Satanic playing the Sidelane Ember.

05:21:16.560 --> 05:21:18.960
I think we've seen one of these Sidelane Embers have success.

05:21:18.960 --> 05:21:20.460
I think it was Sumail in one of the games.

05:21:20.460 --> 05:21:22.160
He did win a game, but out?

05:21:22.160 --> 05:21:23.460
Good. But that was it.

05:21:23.460 --> 05:21:24.560
Yeah. Up to the side!

05:21:24.560 --> 05:21:27.360
All the other Sidelane Embers, they've had a pretty horrible start into the game,

05:21:27.360 --> 05:21:28.960
especially when they're into these Slarks,

05:21:28.960 --> 05:21:31.160
and it took quite a bit of counterpick to do, right?

05:21:31.160 --> 05:21:31.560
For sure.

05:21:31.560 --> 05:21:33.960
Not just the Slark, this Disruptor picked as well.

05:21:33.960 --> 05:21:35.260
The Willow picked too.

05:21:35.260 --> 05:21:38.460
Willow is a problematic hero for a lot of these spirits in the mid-game,

05:21:38.460 --> 05:21:40.260
so we'll see how they do indoor.

05:21:40.260 --> 05:21:45.260
and did land out, let's see, because I haven't seen these Slarks lose the lane and get pressured super hard,

05:21:45.260 --> 05:21:49.060
so I'm wondering how he's going to do if he does get set behind too much versus the Io as well.

05:21:50.460 --> 05:21:55.660
So approaches, spirit, as you said, much more of a normal type of strategy, lots of team fight coming together.

05:21:55.660 --> 05:22:00.460
While for the side of vision, this is an incredibly strong skirmish draft with high mobility

05:22:00.460 --> 05:22:05.160
that can punish a bit of more of a kind of greedy type of draft, I guess you could say.

05:22:05.160 --> 05:22:06.120
Oh, Satanic!

05:22:07.240 --> 05:22:10.280
It's not gonna be easy lane for him.

05:22:10.640 --> 05:22:13.920
It's early days, Fogbob. Got concerns.

05:22:14.200 --> 05:22:17.720
Ember safe lane has looked so shaky

05:22:17.920 --> 05:22:19.880
in the majority of games that we've seen it tried.

05:22:20.000 --> 05:22:23.880
And it's just one of those things that conceptually has never been good, Fogb.

05:22:23.880 --> 05:22:27.080
We've never seen a meta where Ember safe lane's been the thing.

05:22:27.320 --> 05:22:28.600
You see bottom lane, Rook?

05:22:28.840 --> 05:22:31.840
It's gonna end up taking our head to the damage from nine-class notes.

05:22:31.840 --> 05:22:35.160
So vision will be able to get themselves a kill down on the other side of the map

05:22:35.160 --> 05:22:40.300
But it's a huge risk and obviously vision they've got this star player the prodigy on this

05:22:40.300 --> 05:22:42.240
It's so much pressure for Satanic

05:22:42.240 --> 05:22:46.320
You know to be put on his shoulders there in game one of the grand finals 100% and this game, right?

05:22:46.320 --> 05:22:48.640
You look at the flame guard. Yes, you'll be able to farm with it

05:22:48.640 --> 05:22:52.560
But they have lots of ways to be able to break through with the SF with the raises either with the solar

05:22:52.560 --> 05:22:56.120
It they have so many different answers. It does feel it. Oh, look at the mid lane

05:22:56.120 --> 05:23:01.120
It's actually pretty damn good 11-7. I mean one at the moment. I gotta say I think this is

05:23:01.120 --> 05:23:20.120
a little bit better than he should be getting away with. This is, you know, in this matchup they make the switch up obviously to take the Ember away from the Slark, but you'd imagine it would ideally do that in a situation where the Slark would suffer mid, and yeah, as you can see on the numbers, he's not suffering at all here, lol.

05:23:20.120 --> 05:23:40.120
At the least it isn't an Ember that has two l- well, he's very low last hits, but we've seen a lot of these mid-bats with the Ember, with the Ember as like two last hits to 15 of the Slark, so at least there's that, but yeah, I'm just watching this Slark walk up, steal the region of the IO with the shiv, so he's getting quite a lot out of it, versus that bottle, versus the Tango region that's coming in from the high region.

05:23:40.120 --> 05:23:41.120
Not me.

05:23:41.120 --> 05:23:47.120
Like, you know, look easy on this top play, never just chase down Jukale solo and finish up the kill completely on his own.

05:23:47.120 --> 05:23:51.960
This does look like one of those games where it's one of the best willow games. I think I see you're playing versus ember

05:23:51.960 --> 05:23:55.440
You're playing versus Marana as well. It is a fantastic game

05:23:55.440 --> 05:24:00.480
Just have these brambles and in terms of the spirit duo is a whole right the fact of ruin is disrupt

05:24:00.480 --> 05:24:04.840
So we don't see it really at all, but this game you're seeing a lot of potential for a disrupt

05:24:04.840 --> 05:24:10.760
Absolutely great ways to catch versus the ember your great counter pick. It's atomic again. It's a lot of damage

05:24:11.400 --> 05:24:13.400
It's gonna get chased down will

05:24:13.400 --> 05:24:18.200
Got a realm hit. There's gonna be another decay in a second here with the stick charges. Doesn't matter

05:24:18.200 --> 05:24:21.520
He's still gonna live satanic, but kept incredibly low and

05:24:22.440 --> 05:24:26.440
Barely finding farm from this top lane bottom of the cause right now

05:24:26.440 --> 05:24:31.800
It's gonna be such a tough early game here for satanic and a lot of the game's revision to we mentioned the power of

05:24:31.880 --> 05:24:36.360
Ducalis plus satanic what they're able to get out of the lane what they're able to punish the opposing lane with

05:24:36.360 --> 05:24:40.460
This is just a lane that cannot win. We're trying to get as much as they can out of it

05:24:40.460 --> 05:24:43.100
Yes, Tannock being brought super low over and over again.

05:24:43.100 --> 05:24:47.660
The decay on the Ember also, it's pretty devastating when you have this much damage from a hero like Willow.

05:24:47.660 --> 05:24:48.860
All is careful.

05:24:49.980 --> 05:24:52.620
It's gonna be alright, but again, relatively.

05:24:52.620 --> 05:24:56.060
So, super large, V here on DeKalus, completely out of regen.

05:24:56.060 --> 05:24:57.980
Oh, and they're free-farming all three lanes right now.

05:24:57.980 --> 05:25:00.300
Yatoro now at this point, he's given the lane for free.

05:25:00.300 --> 05:25:01.980
They have to actually move, notice the way.

05:25:01.980 --> 05:25:03.820
They don't want to be playing versus that shadow fiend,

05:25:03.820 --> 05:25:05.420
so movements are coming in from both sides.

05:25:05.420 --> 05:25:07.820
Night class, in mid, looking for Laurel.

05:25:07.820 --> 05:25:09.340
They really need this kill.

05:25:09.340 --> 05:25:15.540
Well, they've got to try and punish this Slark somehow because so far LL to be top 2 CS here in a matchup

05:25:15.540 --> 05:25:21.040
where Vision had the chance to switch things up and try and force this Slark into a less favorable position.

05:25:21.040 --> 05:25:24.140
It just hasn't happened. LL, he's loving the laning state.

05:25:24.140 --> 05:25:30.640
And Spirit overall, right? If they win the laning phase, very strong teamfight prowess and good vision heroes as well too.

05:25:30.640 --> 05:25:35.140
We don't see picked as much, you know, because the disruptor isn't picked as much, but Slark with the night vision,

05:25:35.140 --> 05:25:38.740
Undying Tombstone gets great vision. They're going to get these glimpses off if you're ahead.

05:25:38.740 --> 05:25:39.740
to no one.

05:25:39.740 --> 05:25:44.220
We have the tethered across the night glass, nice pushback does catch on to the buy for

05:25:44.220 --> 05:25:47.820
them, DeKalis here is why to help out, no one, he's got a TP back to base though to

05:25:47.820 --> 05:25:48.820
refuel.

05:25:48.820 --> 05:25:53.140
It's a pretty fantastic start for Spirit here, Ditoro has run away with these games

05:25:53.140 --> 05:25:56.500
when he's been given this space on the Shadow Kid, he's going to have a lot of that space

05:25:56.500 --> 05:25:57.500
in this game.

05:25:57.500 --> 05:25:58.820
And look at just from the way these lanes are.

05:25:58.820 --> 05:26:01.980
Extra pressure being brought into the top lane, we're ready to join.

05:26:01.980 --> 05:26:02.980
We're looking for collapse.

05:26:02.980 --> 05:26:07.140
If you get the sole rip heel off with the back of the acorn shot, they'll bring him down.

05:26:07.140 --> 05:26:11.100
If they can get the chance to finish up another Thunder Strike onto DeKalus,

05:26:11.100 --> 05:26:13.100
we'll allow Rue to take the Marana out.

05:26:13.100 --> 05:26:13.600
Not me.

05:26:13.600 --> 05:26:18.040
Seeing not me getting chased down by nine class, a few more right clicks should do it.

05:26:18.040 --> 05:26:20.540
Try and hide around the trees, but nine class will find him.

05:26:20.540 --> 05:26:21.420
But it will be a trade.

05:26:21.420 --> 05:26:24.140
Yeah, Rue's going to have to glimpse into another Thunder Strike soon.

05:26:24.140 --> 05:26:28.580
If necessary, he shouldn't beat the creeps in a right click or do the job.

05:26:28.580 --> 05:26:29.980
So Spirit, bring attention top.

05:26:29.980 --> 05:26:33.980
Say to be said though for vision, still overall spirit coming out on top of these traits.

05:26:33.980 --> 05:26:39.980
But I'd like the movement to be honest with you from vision, I think this was super clever, just breaking the lanes, moving the supports to healthy Ember.

05:26:39.980 --> 05:26:45.980
The IO is ahead of the Slark now at this point, and they're not that far behind on the Ember spirit, all things considered.

05:26:45.980 --> 05:26:49.980
These 500 behind the Shadowfeed, so as a side lane Ember, you know what?

05:26:49.980 --> 05:26:52.980
Not too shabby with these types of moves that we've seen them make.

05:26:52.980 --> 05:26:56.980
Look at the surrounding move from Yotara. Not normally a place you expect to see the carry is.

05:26:56.980 --> 05:26:57.980
Oh, 9th class.

05:26:57.980 --> 05:27:02.980
2-9 class is going to be massively surprised by the fact that there's a safe-flane S-Hack there.

05:27:02.980 --> 05:27:05.980
5th behind the tier 1 mid. It's 6 minutes in.

05:27:05.980 --> 05:27:08.980
And here the catch, the glimpse. Is it enough? No one has a read-in on it.

05:27:08.980 --> 05:27:11.980
I mean, Yatora stepping up. He's going to be able to line up a couple of raises.

05:27:11.980 --> 05:27:15.980
Won't be enough, but still a massive aggression here from Yatoro.

05:27:15.980 --> 05:27:18.980
Making moves. This deep. Pre-7 minutes.

05:27:18.980 --> 05:27:20.980
Wisdom Rune. I think they're not depending the sack though.

05:27:20.980 --> 05:27:23.980
We do see the positioning here from vision. There's a tombstone on high ground.

05:27:23.980 --> 05:27:27.980
high ground. This might be hard for the Carlos to see Tanik's about. He sees it, he can hit it on the high ground.

05:27:27.980 --> 05:27:31.980
Carlos might get taken out first, collapse turns towards him,

05:27:31.980 --> 05:27:35.980
the Carlos is dead, no one will come over to help out,

05:27:35.980 --> 05:27:39.980
so they'll at least make sure they get the kill in return and will manage to take away that

05:27:39.980 --> 05:27:43.980
wisdom. So that's the, you know, when you do make these type of moves, your Toro wants to go for the mid lane,

05:27:43.980 --> 05:27:47.980
they don't have the Slark going toward the left side, they get outnumbered. They will be able to, they will have

05:27:47.980 --> 05:27:51.980
to give up that double shrine there, which is very important, as you said for vision, being able to get this

05:27:51.980 --> 05:27:57.740
And it's Satanic who gets it too. So he is a side lane ember who gets that big bonus of levels that is pretty necessary

05:27:57.740 --> 05:28:01.280
That's your key needs everything you can get here out of this thing save Satanic

05:28:02.380 --> 05:28:05.900
Trading we are caught by the glimpse and here's still pre-level six

05:28:05.900 --> 05:28:08.300
It's a bit tough who hit the chains off one to collapse

05:28:08.540 --> 05:28:13.180
Not he's to hide in the trees who get away for now Satanic didn't have the manner for the kinetic field there on

05:28:13.180 --> 05:28:16.460
Rue just a bit lacking on it. So won't be able to get that follow-up catch

05:28:16.460 --> 05:28:23.180
You're torn, though, getting this crazy amount of free farm on a much more normal carry hero.

05:28:23.180 --> 05:28:24.780
We just have to keep referencing that, right?

05:28:24.780 --> 05:28:25.780
Satanic, sure.

05:28:25.780 --> 05:28:29.460
He has played quite a bit of Ember in the past, but to see how it's going to end up matching

05:28:29.460 --> 05:28:30.460
up in this game.

05:28:30.460 --> 05:28:31.460
I see he's queuing up the Mateslayer.

05:28:31.460 --> 05:28:32.460
I like the build.

05:28:32.460 --> 05:28:36.460
We saw some alternative ways tried right with the save play, and I think what we

05:28:36.460 --> 05:28:40.660
have, Mikkei going for like an earn into Radiance build, didn't work out.

05:28:40.660 --> 05:28:45.740
We're actually seeing Satanic still considering options to queuing up the Khair and such.

05:28:45.740 --> 05:28:48.900
would help in terms of just kind of speeding up the farm, allowing him to stay out on the

05:28:48.900 --> 05:28:53.220
map a little longer with the mana. So it's probably one of those situations he hasn't

05:28:53.220 --> 05:28:57.100
been in a lot considering what to buy as the carry ember. So it's going to be very interesting

05:28:57.100 --> 05:29:01.020
to see what one of, if not the best carry in the world, does with this sort of position.

05:29:01.020 --> 05:29:03.420
I'm just wondering, you know, even though the lane, as we were saying, if it ended

05:29:03.420 --> 05:29:06.860
up absolutely atrocious, this still wasn't great. How he's going to keep up in

05:29:06.860 --> 05:29:10.380
pace with something like a Shadow Fiend who just can double raise onto some neutral

05:29:10.380 --> 05:29:14.460
camp, push out lanes super easy for this ember, it's so much slower how he can farm.

05:29:14.460 --> 05:29:18.300
I mean, it's rare to say this, where Santan, if he's been a number one, number two net worth,

05:29:18.300 --> 05:29:21.860
you know, in 95% of those games, this is one of those games, he's going to have to play

05:29:21.860 --> 05:29:26.460
a bottom core as the game, so they need to hard matchups.

05:29:26.460 --> 05:29:29.460
Yeah, I mean, that's the thing, just the carry matchup in general.

05:29:29.460 --> 05:29:33.020
The fact that he's doing it against Yatoro, you know, the other one that's very easy

05:29:33.020 --> 05:29:36.300
could be labeled the best carry in the world on an SM.

05:29:36.300 --> 05:29:41.460
Like Yatoro could not be more comfortable in this position, game one of a grand final.

05:29:41.460 --> 05:29:48.460
in some ways, you know, done pretty well historically when he gets to them, and he's on his shadow fiend, one of the hottest carries right now in the meta.

05:29:48.460 --> 05:29:55.460
And he warmed up on it already tonight, finding a solo kill on Watson earlier, which was super impressive, so we're gonna see a lot of oppression come out from this period.

05:29:55.460 --> 05:30:04.460
We talk about disruptor in the past a lot, when we used to see him is, when you're ahead, you really can press your advantage, so they're looking for kills right now at night class, they'll find him.

05:30:04.460 --> 05:30:20.460
Quick grab, set it up for Yatura, he's going to be able to take down the tier one, I mean it just feels like Fog Yatura is going to be able to do so much while Satanic, he's just going to hope that there's going to be the time to get to a stage of the game where he can make play.

05:30:20.460 --> 05:30:27.460
Top, they'll try and look to put his collapse. He's turning on him. He's pretty scary, collapse drops down the two, he has to just run.

05:30:27.460 --> 05:30:30.460
Candy run two, Group Nott, he's trying to close the gap.

05:30:30.460 --> 05:30:32.460
He's going to go down!

05:30:32.460 --> 05:30:36.460
Oh boy, oh and it's early days, this is devastating for Vincent.

05:30:36.460 --> 05:30:39.460
And even another glimpse, Roo's there.

05:30:39.460 --> 05:30:41.460
Second again, another very likely to come.

05:30:41.460 --> 05:30:43.460
He's trying to leave the way, just accepts his fate.

05:30:43.460 --> 05:30:47.460
He's noticed there's no further way to escape the reach of collapse.

05:30:47.460 --> 05:30:48.460
Nice, very double.

05:30:48.460 --> 05:30:50.460
With a much more normal approach to the game

05:30:50.460 --> 05:30:53.460
and it's just looking so much easier to play with this type of advantage,

05:30:53.460 --> 05:30:54.460
so many catches.

05:30:54.460 --> 05:30:56.460
The damage isn't there for collapse at this point.

05:30:56.460 --> 05:31:00.120
at this point. He just walks up, he doesn't even have really bad HP items, just gets the

05:31:00.120 --> 05:31:03.160
ulti off. They are lacking in damage early on this side of vision.

05:31:03.160 --> 05:31:06.460
Yatoro is nearly double the net worth of Satanic!

05:31:06.460 --> 05:31:11.800
Oh boy Owen. I'll tell you what, this is not doing wonders for the games where I like

05:31:11.800 --> 05:31:14.920
to pick some safe play lembra at home. I'm going to get the ports as soon as the game

05:31:14.920 --> 05:31:15.920
starts now.

05:31:15.920 --> 05:31:16.920
They will find him.

05:31:16.920 --> 05:31:20.360
As we're seeing, this is not the position for this hero right now.

05:31:20.360 --> 05:31:24.480
They've got to do some heavy lifting with the IO and the two supports to get some space.

05:31:24.480 --> 05:31:28.800
It's been quiet so far here, so maybe if you can get to that timing of the blink dagger and look to get involved

05:31:28.800 --> 05:31:32.600
But the really what I'm looking at the damage. I'm looking at some lackluster approaches

05:31:32.600 --> 05:31:34.200
I can't find it

05:31:34.200 --> 05:31:36.200
The burst could come out if the sharpshooters there

05:31:36.200 --> 05:31:39.640
But is that gonna be enough when that's sort of get this as much of an advantage and now notice

05:31:39.640 --> 05:31:43.480
We're gonna have to glimpse into the requiem. Okay, the call does put a stop to the requiem

05:31:43.480 --> 05:31:46.440
It doesn't matter though. Or maybe it will it's close

05:31:46.880 --> 05:31:48.880
Okay

05:31:48.880 --> 05:31:50.880
A main drop actually protecting him.

05:31:50.880 --> 05:31:57.880
Gets to live and I'll be honest, I think notice, he's probably the one that you're looking at to try and save team vision from the state of the game that they're in.

05:31:57.880 --> 05:32:03.880
And the mobility that can come in from the aisle to see how much no one can connect with with these relocates, he's halfway towards the agonist.

05:32:03.880 --> 05:32:10.880
They're skirmishing as strong on vision, but if they fall too far behind, their team fight is very lackluster in comparison.

05:32:10.880 --> 05:32:12.880
And they're falling pretty fast.

05:32:12.880 --> 05:32:13.880
They are.

05:32:13.880 --> 05:32:15.880
Well that's our head taken by Yatora.

05:32:15.880 --> 05:32:22.940
They're gonna try to use the moonlight shadow to maybe sneak something in here, but it's still very difficult without notice having to blade mail or the blink

05:32:23.800 --> 05:32:29.160
And stacks Owen they're starting to be formed so spirit on top of playing super oppressively here

05:32:29.240 --> 05:32:33.520
They've got this backup condition to just make Yatoro continue to be this beast and ember

05:32:33.520 --> 05:32:38.200
He can't farm stacks. He can form small neutral camps with a stack, but not an ancient stack

05:32:38.200 --> 05:32:41.340
And you can tell right from the the item build up. Oh, see in the mid

05:32:41.340 --> 05:32:42.340
They do get the catch!

05:32:42.340 --> 05:32:43.340
They do get the catch!

05:32:43.340 --> 05:32:44.340
All right!

05:32:44.340 --> 05:32:45.340
That kill!

05:32:45.340 --> 05:32:46.340
Hall's gone!

05:32:46.340 --> 05:32:47.340
It's something for sure.

05:32:47.340 --> 05:32:51.340
I really do feel, as I said, this is a game where you're looking to notice if you're

05:32:51.340 --> 05:32:52.340
vision.

05:32:52.340 --> 05:32:56.340
He's got to do some big moves to get them out of this spot, going for the Blink Mail,

05:32:56.340 --> 05:32:57.340
of course, into the Blink.

05:32:57.340 --> 05:32:59.340
I think, yeah, I like the Blink Mail first.

05:32:59.340 --> 05:33:02.340
Yeah, Blink Mail first is also very dangerous to do because you can just blink it and

05:33:02.340 --> 05:33:03.340
die and you don't have follow-up.

05:33:03.340 --> 05:33:06.340
The Blink Mail, it's going to provide that damage if they're kind of missing it.

05:33:06.340 --> 05:33:07.340
You might kill the SF.

05:33:07.340 --> 05:33:08.340
It might be able to.

05:33:08.340 --> 05:33:09.340
True.

05:33:09.340 --> 05:33:11.340
Positioned here for notice.

05:33:11.340 --> 05:33:14.340
He did get himself out of this last time, notice.

05:33:14.340 --> 05:33:15.840
Is it ulti this time, GoPro?

05:33:15.840 --> 05:33:17.840
Yeah, nobody know. Hesitation dropping down the static.

05:33:17.840 --> 05:33:20.340
Stormyator is able to step up, lay down the raises.

05:33:20.340 --> 05:33:22.340
This time, no chance of notice running.

05:33:22.340 --> 05:33:23.840
No one's going to come in.

05:33:23.840 --> 05:33:24.840
Can we get the catch?

05:33:24.840 --> 05:33:26.840
It's a tricky one, especially with Lyle around as well.

05:33:26.840 --> 05:33:28.340
Vision, they've got to be careful now.

05:33:28.340 --> 05:33:29.840
They chase for this. Lyle ready to pound suppressor.

05:33:29.840 --> 05:33:30.840
He straight towards them.

05:33:30.840 --> 05:33:32.840
Acorn's gotten the bushwhack completely off the mark.

05:33:32.840 --> 05:33:33.840
It's a panic.

05:33:33.840 --> 05:33:35.840
He steps up, he'll drop a red and out.

05:33:35.840 --> 05:33:38.340
But he'll get another one away, so we'll still be able to jump out,

05:33:38.340 --> 05:33:40.340
Now, despite being glimpsed back,

05:33:40.340 --> 05:33:43.340
they bring the numbers forward on the side of vision

05:33:43.340 --> 05:33:45.340
and can't go for any type of trade play here,

05:33:45.340 --> 05:33:47.340
because our spirit, they just react with the numbers themselves.

05:33:47.340 --> 05:33:49.340
They bring everybody over.

05:33:49.340 --> 05:33:50.340
They know how ahead they are right now.

05:33:50.340 --> 05:33:52.340
Playing with this disruptor, Max Glimps is online.

05:33:52.340 --> 05:33:54.340
They keep bringing this number advantage.

05:33:54.340 --> 05:33:56.340
Even if the IO relocate comes in,

05:33:56.340 --> 05:33:58.340
they get to send him away.

05:33:58.340 --> 05:33:59.340
Nice pass.

05:33:59.340 --> 05:34:01.340
A good connection here on the Collapse.

05:34:01.340 --> 05:34:03.340
They have follow-up and look like it's coming.

05:34:03.340 --> 05:34:05.340
Backup's coming up for Collapse.

05:34:05.340 --> 05:34:07.340
It's all right.

05:34:07.340 --> 05:34:13.400
the game. I'm going to get the

05:34:13.400 --> 05:34:15.200
glimpse. I mean, this is the

05:34:15.300 --> 05:34:17.200
dream sort of position right to

05:34:17.300 --> 05:34:18.400
be playing with this disrupts

05:34:18.500 --> 05:34:19.440
that we don't get to see it a

05:34:19.540 --> 05:34:20.340
lot. But in these sort of

05:34:20.440 --> 05:34:22.340
games where you're starting to

05:34:22.440 --> 05:34:24.340
get this sort of momentum. This

05:34:24.440 --> 05:34:25.340
is where root absolutely

05:34:25.440 --> 05:34:27.340
controls every single play.

05:34:27.440 --> 05:34:29.340
You cannot run. He will bring

05:34:29.440 --> 05:34:30.340
you back and what better

05:34:30.440 --> 05:34:32.340
carry to bring the enemy back

05:34:32.440 --> 05:34:33.340
over the wards than an SF.

05:34:33.440 --> 05:34:34.340
You're trying to clean them up

05:34:34.440 --> 05:34:35.340
every time the root catches

05:34:35.440 --> 05:34:36.340
them. He's still continued

05:34:36.340 --> 05:34:40.860
this in this bad of a position yes so I'm how is he going to really recover I

05:34:40.860 --> 05:34:46.000
don't know trying to bring numbers but spirits reacting every single time yeah

05:34:46.000 --> 05:34:48.700
this is true I don't you said the disruptor pick is looking incredible they

05:34:48.700 --> 05:34:52.180
have all the vision tools with the slark with the undying to be able to give

05:34:52.180 --> 05:34:55.860
him these glimpses over and over again it's early but it's a 5k lead and it's

05:34:55.860 --> 05:34:58.460
about to jump to a 6k after these stacks it finished up here for the

05:34:58.460 --> 05:35:03.260
Toro very tough road ahead for Satanic if he's able to make this

05:35:03.260 --> 05:35:09.420
work this is it's gonna be unbelievable. Okay notice this feeling like okay I can't actually go

05:35:09.420 --> 05:35:14.140
for the Greek blame but I need a blink we need a way to slow the pace. I don't mind it I mean it

05:35:14.140 --> 05:35:18.540
definitely shows you know vision they realize the spot they're in ain't too great they gotta do some

05:35:18.540 --> 05:35:23.500
drastic blink dagger timing with the smoke they need something big the dream catch of course would

05:35:23.500 --> 05:35:27.500
be a Torah let's see if they can find vision. Will they have the damage is the question

05:35:27.500 --> 05:35:31.260
because I'm looking at the build from collapse in this game also he's maxed the soul rip

05:35:31.260 --> 05:35:36.140
So there's quite a bit of sustain that can come in even if they do get the catch, and Yatoro has Mask of Madness.

05:35:36.140 --> 05:35:40.540
It's not me, but not me. It's not the one I want to go for. They won Yatoro. Yatoro is going to step up.

05:35:40.540 --> 05:35:43.740
Notice, he's thinking about it. He's going to make the jump. Hit with the call into the archer.

05:35:43.740 --> 05:35:44.460
Can't it, Thor?

05:35:44.460 --> 05:35:46.380
Can't it, Thor? Get laid out, Yatoro!

05:35:46.380 --> 05:35:48.780
Okay, hit that shot. He's going to get off the ledge.

05:35:48.780 --> 05:35:49.820
Too much heels.

05:35:49.820 --> 05:35:52.780
But notice is gone. No one's to fall.

05:35:52.780 --> 05:35:58.460
DeKal is has to retreat. The Loll chases him out. Yatoro throws out another raise.

05:35:58.460 --> 05:36:04.700
They cannot go on this SF right now, they hit the call, they hit the arrow, but it just doesn't matter

05:36:04.700 --> 05:36:08.940
every single time backup's going to be there, and they don't even get close to killing him,

05:36:08.940 --> 05:36:12.540
even with multiple ult's connection, the sharpshooter comes in.

05:36:12.540 --> 05:36:15.660
Yatoro doesn't even get anywhere close to dying.

05:36:15.660 --> 05:36:19.100
Spirit, they're one, two, three, maybe four steps ahead of the play.

05:36:19.100 --> 05:36:22.540
They've got double vision in the area, thank you for asking those, of course.

05:36:22.540 --> 05:36:26.060
Double vision in the area to cover, they know exactly that that move's going to happen,

05:36:26.060 --> 05:36:29.720
and Yatoro, he loves to play super aggressive on this Shadowfiend.

05:36:30.840 --> 05:36:35.820
This team, it's insane how we've watched Spirit level up in just a couple months here,

05:36:35.820 --> 05:36:38.900
not looking to play slow, late game type of potential.

05:36:38.900 --> 05:36:41.720
No, they're all about the aggression, especially with this lineup.

05:36:41.720 --> 05:36:42.980
They're not slowing down, Owen.

05:36:42.980 --> 05:36:46.780
No, which is a great concern for vision.

05:36:46.780 --> 05:36:48.280
Yeah, and another catch.

05:36:50.780 --> 05:36:53.060
All right, I'm struggling to see the recovery.

05:36:53.060 --> 05:36:58.660
I mean, I think you can see the struggle and sort of working out how to recover and just to build the satanic

05:36:58.660 --> 05:37:03.860
It's called queued up. You just there's no other carry that you're going to be playing at all in this metterite

05:37:03.860 --> 05:37:07.620
Where you go Claya BKB radiance. It's just

05:37:08.260 --> 05:37:09.780
You know that satanic himself

05:37:09.780 --> 05:37:14.980
He feels how awkward of a spot that he's in that he's been put in having to play December in the save flame

05:37:15.620 --> 05:37:19.780
That there seems to be very little way to kind of farm and build your way out of this hole

05:37:19.780 --> 05:37:23.420
I don't think we're gonna see this again this you know slot type of thing with the amber teams

05:37:23.560 --> 05:37:29.340
It's it's been tried too many times in this tournament. It's just looking so hard to recover. No one. He's got the eggs

05:37:29.460 --> 05:37:33.940
Let's see how much you can do with this one. He's gonna farm very fast, but he's still so vulnerable

05:37:34.260 --> 05:37:36.600
Going into these fights versus the SF in this large

05:37:37.100 --> 05:37:41.140
With the remnant there, so Tannick, make sure he doesn't get tripped up by the willow combo

05:37:41.140 --> 05:37:43.820
The thing too is like a lot of times when you're playing with the IO

05:37:43.820 --> 05:37:47.220
It's not of course it is about the IO fear of the spirits how much damage they do

05:37:47.220 --> 05:37:52.260
But it's also you're able to provide this extra sustain at times when your play versus smart to he just deals it

05:37:52.260 --> 05:37:57.220
He walks up throws that shit onto somebody and you're just preventing all that extra. Yeah fine, bro

05:37:58.540 --> 05:38:02.540
Gonna be enough to kill him and they get out. I don't think notice this. He's gone

05:38:03.060 --> 05:38:08.580
Not me though and would apply him but then the two supports taken down time before that for your tour to turn up to

05:38:08.580 --> 05:38:10.580
Carlos will manage to leap away a

05:38:10.580 --> 05:38:13.780
Favorable trading dozen numbers. Yep, not bad. They get both the supports

05:38:13.780 --> 05:38:16.140
Sure, they lose a core but in the position there in they'll take that

05:38:17.220 --> 05:38:23.500
Flaps, dodging the bushwhack. He's got Octurine already, so these decays, they're building up,

05:38:23.500 --> 05:38:27.860
reducing their health, taking up himself. And also, so, I keep mentioning about playing ahead

05:38:27.860 --> 05:38:31.300
on the side of Spirit when we're talking about the Disruptor. The other thing about playing

05:38:31.300 --> 05:38:34.860
ahead too is they have a Slark, so look at the vision on the map. All the wards, they're

05:38:34.860 --> 05:38:39.500
just being taken away. So just completely controlling that versus vision, so limiting

05:38:39.500 --> 05:38:43.740
any of these aggressive moves and trying to outnumber it anyway as well. It's so

05:38:43.740 --> 05:38:49.820
hard for them to make a move like this. Look where Yatoro's forming. He's just like,

05:38:49.820 --> 05:38:54.220
okay, I'll just take your ancients multiple times here, and at no risk really at this point,

05:38:54.220 --> 05:38:58.940
he continues to have absolutely insane network. He is the net worth of two poor heroes right now.

05:39:00.460 --> 05:39:06.220
Catch on the undying. They've got him. All right. Cease the surge. He's right back into the mix.

05:39:08.060 --> 05:39:11.820
Spirit might still bring the pressure in around this tier two. Yatoro ready to turn up.

05:39:13.740 --> 05:39:15.740
Looking for the wraparound here.

05:39:15.740 --> 05:39:17.740
I mean, am I going for round two and collapse?

05:39:17.740 --> 05:39:19.740
Oh, okay.

05:39:19.740 --> 05:39:21.740
This is already going to be out through the twin gate.

05:39:21.740 --> 05:39:23.740
I'm not looking to set up.

05:39:25.740 --> 05:39:27.740
Oh, no, it's also caught in the back.

05:39:27.740 --> 05:39:28.740
Laurel does see him.

05:39:28.740 --> 05:39:30.740
He's going to look for Rilike out of this.

05:39:30.740 --> 05:39:31.740
They got the glimpse.

05:39:31.740 --> 05:39:32.740
They do. They found it.

05:39:32.740 --> 05:39:33.740
Perfect timing.

05:39:34.740 --> 05:39:36.740
One of the age old counters there to the iron.

05:39:36.740 --> 05:39:39.740
That's one of the reasons the glimpse can be a bit too much sometimes for him.

05:39:39.740 --> 05:39:43.620
for him I bear to sprouting at them at this point all in nine classes trying to get away

05:39:43.620 --> 05:39:46.140
but they've got the vision hiding in the trees and not gonna

05:39:47.420 --> 05:39:51.220
Was him in time so he will live still losing their mid vision

05:39:53.260 --> 05:39:58.900
No space on the map on the only place they can play right now is where they had that vision on team vision

05:39:59.620 --> 05:40:02.540
And they're just still getting run out in that area. They'll kill them dying

05:40:02.540 --> 05:40:07.220
But as he said Cecil Sturge, he's back immediately and with the odd three and it's a much faster cooldown as well

05:40:07.220 --> 05:40:11.940
360 seconds rather than that 480 so we'll be able to utilize that in the next

05:40:11.940 --> 05:40:16.580
group as well potentially see if vision can bring the numbers again not me

05:40:16.580 --> 05:40:19.700
does still have this ward on the high ground

05:40:19.700 --> 05:40:24.340
and it bring the brambles into the field all ready to pounce in closing on to

05:40:24.340 --> 05:40:29.620
Decalis who get the leap off so we're from collapse will allow spirit to

05:40:29.620 --> 05:40:35.540
continue to rack up the kills here against vision and spirit two they

05:40:35.540 --> 05:40:36.540
They have a building hitter.

05:40:36.540 --> 05:40:38.620
Well, on vision, they do not have a building hitter.

05:40:38.620 --> 05:40:39.620
They don't have a single building hitter.

05:40:39.620 --> 05:40:41.460
They do not have a single one at this point, too.

05:40:41.460 --> 05:40:45.060
So overall, just have to play to farm and try to catch back up with these items that

05:40:45.060 --> 05:40:46.060
they can get.

05:40:46.060 --> 05:40:47.340
Looking for the BKB timing.

05:40:47.340 --> 05:40:51.540
So double BKB, potentially triple BKB timing, the vision is going to look for versus that

05:40:51.540 --> 05:40:54.660
heavy team fight, but it's not just that team fight, that physical damage.

05:40:54.660 --> 05:40:59.340
It is there, too, for Nitoro that we'll be able to bypass it.

05:40:59.340 --> 05:41:00.900
Roche soon on the menu, probably, for Spirit.

05:41:00.900 --> 05:41:01.900
Another damage.

05:41:01.900 --> 05:41:02.900
I think it's time right now.

05:41:02.900 --> 05:41:04.340
Step strains there with the unplugged damage.

05:41:04.340 --> 05:41:05.340
Yep.

05:41:05.340 --> 05:41:09.340
so you can pop the ulti, you can keep pushing it forward even faster with the 2nd slow too.

05:41:09.340 --> 05:41:13.340
They'll even save the ulti potentially here for the fights, it's just gonna be brought down so fast.

05:41:15.340 --> 05:41:18.340
Little to no mistakes from Spirit right now, Envision.

05:41:19.340 --> 05:41:23.340
Still trying to get these items online, trying to make the recovery for Satanic.

05:41:26.340 --> 05:41:29.340
Yeah, very much making a statement for...

05:41:29.340 --> 05:41:33.340
And maybe that slot does actually have to be first phase if you wanna open with December.

05:41:33.340 --> 05:41:34.540
Yeah, potentially so.

05:41:36.740 --> 05:41:43.240
Might just force you to kind of have to come in with these sort of strats that just don't seem to be anywhere close to working.

05:41:43.240 --> 05:41:47.440
Night class trying to be cheeky here. Finding a place to farm Rune knows where he is.

05:41:47.440 --> 05:41:49.240
They're gonna see him. They've got to catch.

05:41:51.940 --> 05:41:56.840
Static storm. Make sure there's no way for him to play his way out there. The same time spirit. They've also got the green wave moving in top.

05:41:56.840 --> 05:41:58.740
Notice we'll get the call on to Yatoro.

05:41:58.740 --> 05:41:59.640
Not Aegis.

05:41:59.940 --> 05:42:01.740
And no one's come across. Static?

05:42:01.740 --> 05:42:04.540
The numbers are being brought in, they're fight backing on 9 class.

05:42:04.540 --> 05:42:06.540
Let's have a look. They want to try and put everything into this play.

05:42:06.540 --> 05:42:10.700
Vision see if they can find some sort of kill, but Collapse is ready to just run straight at them.

05:42:10.700 --> 05:42:14.220
Comes in with the ultimate, tanking up, heals up above the Soul Rift.

05:42:14.220 --> 05:42:17.500
Vision, they can't even touch it. He's fine. They've got it back off.

05:42:17.500 --> 05:42:19.900
A cool build too. Collapse don't for just a casual glimmer kit.

05:42:19.900 --> 05:42:23.660
He knows that the big burst damage that's coming up for Vision, it's that magical damage

05:42:23.660 --> 05:42:26.860
from the Marana, from that hood link as well with the Shard too.

05:42:26.860 --> 05:42:29.660
So that glimmer is going to be very, very strong.

05:42:29.660 --> 05:42:33.540
He's kind of like this pseudo support to be able to protect your Toro as well with the heels

05:42:33.540 --> 05:42:37.360
I mean that because at the moment right that's all the maps really all over if they can save Yatoro

05:42:37.500 --> 05:42:40.600
He will do everything he will kill them all he'll kill their base

05:42:41.600 --> 05:42:43.300
Get the call

05:42:43.300 --> 05:42:48.100
Oh, it's gone. No, it's just I don't think he's getting out though. It's all right turns up a collapse there

05:42:48.100 --> 05:42:51.440
But it's a Kim down now over the was the car list. He's out of leaps

05:42:51.440 --> 05:42:54.740
They've got a glimpse if they needed it anyway through once another target though

05:42:54.740 --> 05:42:57.340
He's got a blink. He's got a tumbler's toy if you can look for one

05:42:59.660 --> 05:43:04.460
And it tried to be cheeky here cut wave to get this extra farm. He's got the BKB

05:43:10.620 --> 05:43:12.620
Playing with fire here

05:43:13.420 --> 05:43:17.020
Should be okay bruise like you know what I don't want to chase him at this point. He's got the BKB

05:43:21.420 --> 05:43:26.660
In position and now we have to be careful standing he's gonna have to be KB possibly okay did get the remnant off

05:43:26.660 --> 05:43:27.660
They got vision!

05:43:27.660 --> 05:43:29.660
He can maybe time it and he can't.

05:43:29.660 --> 05:43:31.660
Double jump back despite the glimpse.

05:43:31.660 --> 05:43:35.660
That's the last rem that he's really trying to hang onto that VKB.

05:43:35.660 --> 05:43:40.660
But really is just hanging onto it as a Toro, trying to give some more of that information.

05:43:43.660 --> 05:43:47.660
8000 lead for Spirit, continuing to play super oppressive here.

05:43:47.660 --> 05:43:51.660
And Root, he is starting to build toward that agonims as well too already at this point.

05:43:51.660 --> 05:43:53.660
Blink and a point booster picks up.

05:43:53.660 --> 05:43:54.660
Vision.

05:43:54.660 --> 05:43:59.660
Starting to bring the numbers. Eyes unnoticed to see how big of a cause you can get.

05:43:59.660 --> 05:44:03.660
Gonna be a mark of the call. Doesn't matter. The relocate comes in, they'll still get through.

05:44:03.660 --> 05:44:04.660
I'll get the two of them.

05:44:04.660 --> 05:44:08.660
Getting the supports over and over again. Pretty decent when you are this far behind.

05:44:08.660 --> 05:44:12.660
Pulls from Spira. I'm watching at the side just in case anybody steps up in.

05:44:12.660 --> 05:44:17.660
They can still fight despite the death of their supports with how large they are.

05:44:17.660 --> 05:44:20.660
First BKB revealed from Noah as well.

05:44:20.660 --> 05:44:26.540
They're trying to get to this timing of those triple BKVs for vision.

05:44:26.540 --> 05:44:29.020
It's Oro, on the hunt.

05:44:29.020 --> 05:44:32.500
This is the pre-killed to J's fault.

05:44:32.500 --> 05:44:35.460
He's quite fine in here.

05:44:35.460 --> 05:44:39.260
Try to slow down with the raises, but...

05:44:39.260 --> 05:44:41.460
The mark.

05:44:41.460 --> 05:44:43.460
Potentially looking for, you know, that Tormentor Cup of play.

05:44:43.460 --> 05:44:44.620
It's gonna shift soon.

05:44:44.620 --> 05:44:47.340
Both these teams, not really the biggest Tormentor teams either.

05:44:47.340 --> 05:44:50.180
Vision's just desperately trying to find these places to farm.

05:44:50.180 --> 05:44:51.980
I mean, look where Satanic is, look where no one is.

05:44:51.980 --> 05:44:53.740
They just really want to get to this item timing

05:44:53.740 --> 05:44:56.680
and then look for that fight when the Aegis does go down.

05:44:56.680 --> 05:44:57.680
Probably their best option

05:44:57.680 --> 05:44:59.280
because they still are super behind at this point.

05:44:59.280 --> 05:45:02.180
They need to get the BKBs to counter that heavy team fight.

05:45:03.180 --> 05:45:04.680
Spirit's just chasing them all over.

05:45:06.180 --> 05:45:09.780
Well, it's just pulling Satanic, making sure that Satanic

05:45:10.580 --> 05:45:12.380
can get the full freedom that he hoped for.

05:45:12.380 --> 05:45:14.480
Satanic has to be pretty careful here to Toro

05:45:14.480 --> 05:45:15.480
as he has the damage.

05:45:15.480 --> 05:45:16.580
BKB, ooh!

05:45:16.580 --> 05:45:19.080
What the hell away from being close enough to kill him?

05:45:19.080 --> 05:45:20.080
I'll tell you that.

05:45:20.180 --> 05:45:23.180
Top, DeKalus.

05:45:25.180 --> 05:45:26.180
They also get noticed.

05:45:26.180 --> 05:45:28.180
Look at the glimpse back, straight into the fear.

05:45:28.180 --> 05:45:29.180
Very nicely done.

05:45:29.180 --> 05:45:31.180
He gets the play mail-off, but it doesn't matter.

05:45:31.180 --> 05:45:32.180
Notice is gone.

05:45:32.180 --> 05:45:34.180
DeKalus trapped by the kinetic field.

05:45:34.180 --> 05:45:37.180
Perfect timing with the glimpse into the fear there

05:45:37.180 --> 05:45:39.180
from the supports of Spirit.

05:45:39.180 --> 05:45:41.180
Two of the better heroes to punish.

05:45:41.180 --> 05:45:43.180
They're trying to split with Collapse.

05:45:43.180 --> 05:45:45.180
They're trying to make some sort of a play against Collapse,

05:45:45.180 --> 05:45:47.180
but it's really good for Noa, but it's not going to happen.

05:45:47.180 --> 05:45:48.180
Noa?

05:45:48.180 --> 05:45:50.380
He's putting a trouble. Okay, how's that the BKB?

05:45:50.580 --> 05:45:54.120
It's gonna try and chase down room with the spirits, but the solar wheel comes in.

05:45:54.780 --> 05:45:57.460
Nobody in spirit going down in this mid lane.

05:45:58.100 --> 05:46:01.040
Osvillian continue to hemorrhage this kills.

05:46:02.020 --> 05:46:07.560
Three deaths there and it was a nine-class buyback earlier too that they were desperately trying to look for these extra kills up top.

05:46:07.560 --> 05:46:10.700
Ends up being Broad Town Yatoro, very close to having the Silver Edge.

05:46:10.700 --> 05:46:15.380
He is continuing to be double net worth of the ever. I mean, he's just having a completely free game there.

05:46:15.380 --> 05:46:22.260
I can't imagine a better way to start off a TI Grand Finals if you're a carry than the one that Yatora is having right now

05:46:22.260 --> 05:46:28.020
And he is making absolutely everything out of the situation he's been given not only is it 24 to 12

05:46:28.020 --> 05:46:30.620
But look at the tower situation right as you said vision

05:46:30.620 --> 05:46:34.700
They cannot touch the towers especially because of how far behind they were at the start of this game

05:46:34.860 --> 05:46:38.500
Almost the late key all the ones of spirits have barely been touched at this point

05:46:38.500 --> 05:46:41.140
Well two tier two is already in drop from the side of vision

05:46:41.140 --> 05:46:47.140
And noticed his BKB is the timing that he wanted to get a bit of acceleration onto it.

05:46:47.140 --> 05:46:53.140
He's now died I think three times trying to make the space for the team so his BKB is going to be so delayed at this point.

05:46:53.140 --> 05:46:59.140
Rue is going to have an agonist maybe as that BKB comes out from the axe so he's going to have extra answers.

05:46:59.140 --> 05:47:02.140
He just prevent them from using it. He does get the initial catch.

05:47:02.140 --> 05:47:09.140
There's a Silver-Edged Yatoro stalking him.

05:47:09.140 --> 05:47:17.140
Find up and ready to go for this final tier 2 from the bottom lane.

05:47:17.140 --> 05:47:20.140
So hard for vision to put together a teamfight.

05:47:20.140 --> 05:47:28.140
There it will take every single one of these battles at this point.

05:47:28.140 --> 05:47:30.940
And the 20 as well now here for Yatoro, Satanic.

05:47:30.940 --> 05:47:33.300
And look, every time we see Satanic, collapse is on top of it.

05:47:33.300 --> 05:47:34.460
He's just following him.

05:47:34.460 --> 05:47:35.740
Being super annoying.

05:47:35.740 --> 05:47:36.780
And the mid?

05:47:36.780 --> 05:47:37.780
Now to catch on Laurel.

05:47:37.780 --> 05:47:41.100
If you managed to bring Laurel down, Yatoro is considering if he wants to fight back here,

05:47:41.100 --> 05:47:42.820
the DKB was used by no one.

05:47:42.820 --> 05:47:45.060
That is four times they've been able to fight Laurel.

05:47:46.180 --> 05:47:46.900
Noticed.

05:47:46.900 --> 05:47:48.780
Do we get to get Yatoro?

05:47:48.780 --> 05:47:49.860
Can he get the glimpse?

05:47:49.860 --> 05:47:50.900
He will.

05:47:50.900 --> 05:47:53.300
Straight back into the field in the static storm, into the wreck.

05:47:53.300 --> 05:47:56.460
We are low, though we are really capable of getting that nice one.

05:47:56.460 --> 05:47:58.460
All right, no one able to bail

05:47:58.540 --> 05:48:00.540
his axe out for now

05:48:00.900 --> 05:48:06.220
They're gonna look for the fight after this they're gonna kill the tombstone off doesn't look like they can go for the fight themselves

05:48:06.220 --> 05:48:10.980
BKB still cool down for no one to play caution there. It also will back up the respect that saved

05:48:15.660 --> 05:48:18.120
Space needed no one

05:48:18.860 --> 05:48:25.220
Is pulling ahead a good amount here over the slug is they have been able to find some nice kills on tomorrow with the chain stuns

05:48:26.460 --> 05:48:31.860
If no one can end up being that prox that they really need for the team.

05:48:31.860 --> 05:48:37.740
Gonna go that Sheva's build that we do see from previous all the mid laners on the IO.

05:48:37.740 --> 05:48:41.780
But it's slower paced damage in comparison to something like Yatoro who is accelerating

05:48:41.780 --> 05:48:42.780
toward more lifesteal.

05:48:42.780 --> 05:48:47.060
He's gonna go that satanic build, stalling out any type of BKB, knows he doesn't

05:48:47.060 --> 05:48:48.060
need it for now.

05:48:48.060 --> 05:48:50.460
Maybe eventually at some points, but we know Yatoro.

05:48:50.460 --> 05:48:52.460
He plays for the Mantidodgers in 9th class.

05:48:52.460 --> 05:48:54.460
He's dead in two or three hits.

05:48:56.460 --> 05:49:01.460
Also, we'll be able to see he's not child of the satanic bears,

05:49:01.460 --> 05:49:03.460
satanic quick with the remnant awake.

05:49:03.460 --> 05:49:05.460
And even though they're not keeping up, right,

05:49:05.460 --> 05:49:08.460
but not making the boldly go so much faster in terms of perspiration,

05:49:08.460 --> 05:49:10.460
the gains just aren't that big for vision.

05:49:10.460 --> 05:49:13.460
I just don't know how much this radiance for satanic is really going to do,

05:49:13.460 --> 05:49:15.460
because we didn't seem to make a try for it the other day.

05:49:15.460 --> 05:49:17.460
But as soon as he showed up to the fight with the radiance

05:49:17.460 --> 05:49:19.460
and the peekabay, he did absolutely nothing.

05:49:19.460 --> 05:49:22.900
build up the fact that that radiance is going to come so much later as well it's

05:49:22.900 --> 05:49:26.260
as I said I think you know Satanic's trying to do his best to adapt to this

05:49:26.260 --> 05:49:30.340
situation that he's been put on off the back of this draft it's just not easy to

05:49:30.340 --> 05:49:36.020
make this safe plan ever work. Laurel now has the gem so should be a lot safer we

05:49:36.020 --> 05:49:39.140
have seen them picking off a couple times here but now with the gem should

05:49:39.140 --> 05:49:43.060
be much more protected in terms of not getting caught by the blink-axe from

05:49:43.060 --> 05:49:48.980
that distance also going for the BKB early I like it it's alright you do

05:49:48.980 --> 05:49:53.980
something cute about it. You can line up the wreck wheel.

05:49:53.980 --> 05:49:58.980
Ryan, I put things up here with the beard! That will do it!

05:49:58.980 --> 05:50:03.980
We saw him solo kill Watson earlier. That was almost a solo kill as well too.

05:50:03.980 --> 05:50:08.980
He could get a little help, but super oppressive play. A flawless game from the

05:50:08.980 --> 05:50:13.980
legend himself. 8-0-3. I pretty much maintain this network

05:50:13.980 --> 05:50:19.700
Position where double so close that essentially being double the net worth of satanic

05:50:19.700 --> 05:50:25.820
He's double the net worth of Laurel even to his own teammate. Absolutely crazy performance from your tour on this game

05:50:26.860 --> 05:50:29.000
They're not able to slow things down noticed

05:50:29.340 --> 05:50:31.500
His BKB is about to be finished

05:50:31.500 --> 05:50:36.160
So let's see if they can connect with this triple BKB timing how much they can do but again the

05:50:36.160 --> 05:50:42.980
Radiance was slowed down and it's besides the goal lead look at the experience to level 16 ever your toros cracking level 23

05:50:43.980 --> 05:50:47.980
right yet or he is not going to care one bit about a radiance on this end of

05:50:47.980 --> 05:50:52.620
spirit. Night class, Laurel stalking him.

05:50:56.780 --> 05:51:00.780
What did it work? Bit of a tricky kill to Jace for.

05:51:00.780 --> 05:51:05.820
Of course he's away. Meanwhile over towards the med-base and grouped up and

05:51:05.820 --> 05:51:10.180
ready to try and make a move here. Vision, smoke out. Trying to catch spirit

05:51:10.180 --> 05:51:13.380
if they're split up in any way but spirit had been so careful in this

05:51:13.380 --> 05:51:18.620
The Satanic is gonna be coming out very soon for Yatoro. They haven't had the damage to bring him down yet

05:51:18.620 --> 05:51:23.640
And now they're gonna have to somehow bypass the Satanic, which is one of the best answers versus the Blink Blade Vale axe

05:51:24.860 --> 05:51:29.660
Roche soon on the horizon to something that vision can't let spirit get roast if they do

05:51:30.540 --> 05:51:35.180
Game is gonna be pretty much impossible for them than looking for Laurel again. I've got him a fair few times

05:51:36.060 --> 05:51:38.940
Not gonna be able to find that catch. All right, Radiance done

05:51:40.140 --> 05:51:42.140
Yatoro gets a full Satanic

05:51:43.380 --> 05:51:47.780
The damage isn't going to come out that fast for Vision, and there's heals, there's ways to protect.

05:51:47.780 --> 05:51:53.280
Collapse, as we said, he's playing this pseudo extra support in a way, right, with the build that he's gone for.

05:51:53.280 --> 05:51:57.780
He has Blink, he has Shard, so if they do get the catch, he even can get the saves as well.

05:51:57.780 --> 05:52:01.780
Again, it's difficult to see how Vision approaches these fights, huh?

05:52:01.780 --> 05:52:07.780
Try and check out the situation, I'll find 9 class, you throw his depth in a couple of right clicks, that's 9 class gone.

05:52:07.780 --> 05:52:08.780
Not likely.

05:52:08.780 --> 05:52:17.280
Vision needs every number to it, so even if they lose one hero to test in that bush, already was super hard, now impossible.

05:52:17.280 --> 05:52:20.780
So they're gonna have to just accept the fact that the play first at this age is...

05:52:21.780 --> 05:52:24.780
Mission might come onto their high ground pretty soon here with the banner as well.

05:52:24.780 --> 05:52:27.780
Toro super tanky, can probably just frontline.

05:52:27.780 --> 05:52:30.780
And how's Rue doing for his agonist too?

05:52:30.780 --> 05:52:34.280
He's got three components already finished up, so yes, pretty close.

05:52:34.280 --> 05:52:38.280
Vision's got some BKBs, but they might be putting the position where they think he can get them off to.

05:52:38.780 --> 05:52:49.220
They're trying desperately to get any type of building damage.

05:52:49.220 --> 05:52:55.660
Got a decent amount bottom here, but it's just that tier one.

05:52:55.660 --> 05:53:00.940
And you get this bottom wave pushed out.

05:53:00.940 --> 05:53:04.260
Don't forget the Torment of Thurs.

05:53:04.260 --> 05:53:07.860
They take Torrent.

05:53:07.860 --> 05:53:12.860
We're a little bit blessed with that as well.

05:53:12.860 --> 05:53:13.860
A nice one too.

05:53:13.860 --> 05:53:15.100
The kinetic fence is quite good.

05:53:15.100 --> 05:53:18.900
This game versus the Marana versus the Isle, even versus the Ember in some situations

05:53:18.900 --> 05:53:19.900
can be quite annoying.

05:53:19.900 --> 05:53:21.900
That's a little bit of lockdown.

05:53:21.900 --> 05:53:28.500
It's got so much to say and so much save at this point on Spirit Vision.

05:53:28.500 --> 05:53:29.980
What's the next big game they're getting?

05:53:29.980 --> 05:53:33.620
Okay, no one is going for something a bit different to kill them the hex.

05:53:33.620 --> 05:53:37.660
looking like they just want to get this chain control to not allow this you know

05:53:37.660 --> 05:53:41.100
it's more on just go absolutely crazy but if you said there's seeds there's heels

05:53:41.100 --> 05:53:44.140
there's this tombstone

05:53:46.180 --> 05:53:50.660
so I'm ready to make quick work of this tier 2

05:53:50.660 --> 05:53:55.060
plenty of minutes left they want to try and push up high ground with the

05:53:55.060 --> 05:53:59.020
sages got a creep wave coming in

05:53:59.020 --> 05:54:09.020
He has it finished into 10 gold now. They're gonna smoke up, potentially look for the catch as a hero shows on the side of vision.

05:54:09.020 --> 05:54:21.020
Anyone steps out of the base, they'll get quite a nasty surprise. They have the Slarkshard as well too, so Tombstone, Slarkshard, SoulRip, Limbers, so many things to protect you Toro.

05:54:21.020 --> 05:54:22.660
Toro.

05:54:22.660 --> 05:54:23.820
Can he get the call?

05:54:23.820 --> 05:54:24.820
No ribs there.

05:54:24.820 --> 05:54:26.420
They're keeping him healed up pretty nice.

05:54:26.420 --> 05:54:27.420
He'll get the match up.

05:54:27.420 --> 05:54:28.620
The pushback comes out after, but there's

05:54:28.620 --> 05:54:30.260
going to be the save from the tombstone.

05:54:30.260 --> 05:54:31.660
Fear connects on to no one.

05:54:31.660 --> 05:54:34.020
It's a panic to heal up, Toro.

05:54:34.020 --> 05:54:35.500
We'll back away in respect to damage.

05:54:35.500 --> 05:54:37.260
They force everybody from vision back.

05:54:40.260 --> 05:54:41.140
The play is safe.

05:54:41.140 --> 05:54:42.740
Work on sorting out the other lanes.

05:54:42.740 --> 05:54:43.940
It's better.

05:54:43.940 --> 05:54:46.060
They also now they do have that ag's disruptor.

05:54:46.060 --> 05:54:50.020
So vision has to be so prepared to click those BKBs,

05:54:50.020 --> 05:54:52.380
but it's gonna be difficult because the Blink's there too, for Rue.

05:54:52.380 --> 05:54:54.660
It's okay, just Blink and drop that static storm.

05:54:57.860 --> 05:55:00.300
Just gonna be ridiculous amounts of damage coming out for you, Tori.

05:55:00.300 --> 05:55:03.500
It's just over a thousand gold away from having that day, Liss.

05:55:05.220 --> 05:55:07.300
And the wards just continue to get taken out.

05:55:07.300 --> 05:55:11.300
The gem that they picked up on the sloth with disadvantage, constricting the map.

05:55:15.060 --> 05:55:15.580
Collapsed.

05:55:16.700 --> 05:55:18.500
They saw someone outside for a quick second here.

05:55:18.500 --> 05:55:25.500
they want to get a glimpse, can't quite find the angle here. Not letting vision get outside.

05:55:25.500 --> 05:55:31.500
It's just trying to find some sort of corner of the map. 9 plus, gonna go for a very aggressive

05:55:31.500 --> 05:55:36.500
jump out of the base to try and set up onto Rue. Well, he'll be able to punish that.

05:55:36.500 --> 05:55:37.500
It's perfectly fine.

05:55:37.500 --> 05:55:44.500
They've got depth shroud as well too, just so many ways to cover and protect each other.

05:55:44.500 --> 05:55:47.340
It's a kind of desperately trying to find that agonist.

05:55:49.500 --> 05:55:52.240
The quietest game I think we've seen from him at this international.

05:55:52.240 --> 05:55:53.240
Yeah, I think it is.

05:55:54.500 --> 05:55:55.840
Karo, Karo will connect.

05:55:55.840 --> 05:55:56.840
It's a lot of damage.

05:55:56.840 --> 05:55:59.540
He's got so much to stay in it, so many ways to protect him.

05:56:00.740 --> 05:56:05.640
Isn't that cool, able to continue to hit the tier 3s, force out the fortification here in the mid.

05:56:10.640 --> 05:56:12.840
Tora can back up, pick up that demon edge.

05:56:12.840 --> 05:56:20.640
90 seconds still on this Aegis this is an aggressive relocate positioning from

05:56:20.640 --> 05:56:24.880
no one here is this instructor could catch him

05:56:25.200 --> 05:56:30.600
jump BKB off okay make sure he gets that before the static still they're gonna

05:56:30.600 --> 05:56:34.680
try the glimpse timing but he still has to be KB active so he will be safe what's

05:56:34.680 --> 05:56:38.200
good thing he clicks that BKB when he does so he's dead I think it's sort of

05:56:38.200 --> 05:56:41.700
as soon as he saw people turn up he knew that there was a high chance that

05:56:41.700 --> 05:56:44.140
That play will be looked towards by Root.

05:56:44.140 --> 05:56:46.300
It's Horo standing strong by himself here.

05:56:46.300 --> 05:56:48.420
He still has a little side-class.

05:56:48.420 --> 05:56:49.180
He can stand.

05:56:49.180 --> 05:56:50.180
They're gonna get out a couple of hits.

05:56:50.180 --> 05:56:51.500
They're gonna try and battle you.

05:56:51.500 --> 05:56:52.620
He's too strong.

05:56:52.620 --> 05:56:53.220
Look at that.

05:56:53.220 --> 05:56:54.860
Look what these hits are gonna hurt.

05:56:54.860 --> 05:56:55.460
Oh, my God.

05:56:55.460 --> 05:56:57.580
So close to Satanic even getting brought down.

05:56:57.580 --> 05:57:00.100
It's Horo showing he can fight

05:57:00.100 --> 05:57:03.220
versus everybody with this advantage.

05:57:03.220 --> 05:57:03.940
Oh, dear.

05:57:03.940 --> 05:57:06.820
Yeah, this is, especially in situations like that,

05:57:06.820 --> 05:57:10.180
I can only imagine, Bob, that Satanic is like,

05:57:10.180 --> 05:57:14.500
Please let me play something else. I do not want to play this carry ember

05:57:14.500 --> 05:57:19.260
I really don't it cannot be fun fogged not if your Torah especially now your Torah get to play

05:57:20.620 --> 05:57:22.620
The difference in this guy

05:57:24.460 --> 05:57:26.140
This doesn't feel fair

05:57:26.140 --> 05:57:31.700
Really doesn't at this point now no glyph provisions to stop this push and they get your Torah off of the racks

05:57:32.060 --> 05:57:34.320
No BKB for no one either for this push

05:57:34.320 --> 05:57:41.320
They made the call again.

05:57:41.320 --> 05:57:46.320
They do get the arrow, Galaxies already jumps in.

05:57:46.320 --> 05:57:48.320
Satanic's going to try going on the back line here with BKB.

05:57:48.320 --> 05:57:51.320
He's going to try and chase out Rue, bring the disruptor down.

05:57:51.320 --> 05:57:53.320
He'll succeed, take throughout the fight.

05:57:53.320 --> 05:57:56.320
BKB's about to come through an end though, so they'll have to jump back defensively.

05:57:56.320 --> 05:57:59.320
Didn't manage to get that kill there with that play, Satanic.

05:57:59.320 --> 05:58:01.320
That was pretty cool, just jumps past everybody.

05:58:01.320 --> 05:58:04.700
Everybody did have to use a lot of the remnants. They did have to use their BKB

05:58:06.120 --> 05:58:11.540
That's both the BKBs right just to find a support kill. So it's something but it's a very expensive

05:58:12.060 --> 05:58:15.080
Commitment just to find a disruptor here at this point, but they have to do that

05:58:15.080 --> 05:58:17.360
Right, but I think this is exactly how the Emperor has to play

05:58:17.360 --> 05:58:22.960
You cannot let Rue get his spells off because you will just get destroyed in the team fight if he gets a static stone on top of you

05:58:25.240 --> 05:58:29.820
Even the bigger static storm a chasm stone casually picked up from the disruptor too

05:58:29.820 --> 05:58:33.260
So even more massive to be able to get the connection onto them here.

05:58:36.860 --> 05:58:39.860
So decent execution we're seeing, the attempts from Vision, right?

05:58:39.860 --> 05:58:43.140
Getting the call, pulling him back, getting that connection of the arrow too.

05:58:43.580 --> 05:58:46.980
But yet, just still a bit too far behind to bring down your Toro at all.

05:58:48.140 --> 05:58:49.300
How's no one's hex looking?

05:58:49.300 --> 05:58:52.140
He does have the gold for it, but saving for the buyback for the moment.

05:58:53.220 --> 05:58:53.820
Zora.

05:58:55.140 --> 05:58:58.580
No, it just sticks around. He might regret it, but the blink inside.

05:58:59.820 --> 05:59:01.500
Look at the build he's got to go for on notice.

05:59:01.500 --> 05:59:03.980
He's like, yeah, armor isn't the solution, guys.

05:59:03.980 --> 05:59:06.140
I need to blink, blade out, and go-sep this one.

05:59:06.140 --> 05:59:07.140
I don't just get ahead of this.

05:59:07.140 --> 05:59:09.660
Against this SF, certainly so.

05:59:09.660 --> 05:59:10.820
No one?

05:59:10.820 --> 05:59:12.740
Where's the pop, the BKB defensively again?

05:59:12.740 --> 05:59:14.380
I was like, I'm going to try to go for you, Lali.

05:59:14.380 --> 05:59:15.500
He's already got to be giving me something.

05:59:15.500 --> 05:59:17.780
No follow-up damage to threaten the slot.

05:59:17.780 --> 05:59:19.940
The go-sep divides him a little bit at a time.

05:59:19.940 --> 05:59:24.020
But if he comes to an end, Spirit will bring Moses down.

05:59:24.020 --> 05:59:28.460
Gatoro is just running the show beyond God-like.

05:59:28.460 --> 05:59:33.140
And that was what BKB used from no one, notice still has his for the potential for the defense,

05:59:33.140 --> 05:59:37.500
Statenik also, but not having the IO BKB, he can't just get popped.

05:59:37.500 --> 05:59:38.500
Gatoro.

05:59:38.500 --> 05:59:41.500
He grabs the 4 staff.

05:59:41.500 --> 05:59:42.500
Alright.

05:59:42.500 --> 05:59:45.820
Look at the first whack, looks stunned, but the tombstone is dead.

05:59:45.820 --> 05:59:48.340
Statenik gonna have to use a lot of his BKB to try and check that out.

05:59:48.340 --> 05:59:49.340
He's done it!

05:59:49.340 --> 05:59:50.340
He's done it!

05:59:50.340 --> 05:59:51.340
He's done it!

05:59:51.340 --> 05:59:52.340
It kills Gatoro!

05:59:52.340 --> 05:59:54.340
It's the first time this game!

05:59:54.340 --> 05:59:56.340
That's massive!

05:59:56.340 --> 06:00:00.800
Vision doing what seems to be the impossible now collapse on the other hand

06:00:00.800 --> 06:00:03.620
He's got a lot of HP to get through a feeling like I'm dying

06:00:03.980 --> 06:00:08.860
I was gonna try and chase through out of the action collapse building the HP up and collapse

06:00:08.900 --> 06:00:15.140
He's kind of cleaning them up Satanic's gone double kills for collapse of the blink and he's ready for more

06:00:15.140 --> 06:00:19.340
He jumps over the nose, he's trying to get the tree cut in!

06:00:19.340 --> 06:00:24.740
Collaps, you don't need to throw it at this point, he's the new Karrion now!

06:00:24.740 --> 06:00:29.840
They have to use everything to kill you, they executed it pretty beautifully to bring down this SSF, but Collaps goes...

06:00:29.840 --> 06:00:30.840
Oh, maybe even more!

06:00:30.840 --> 06:00:33.340
I have 52 strength, he wants more.

06:00:34.840 --> 06:00:39.440
That's for the lul, won't quite be able to get slow and send either of them on the leash.

06:00:39.440 --> 06:00:40.840
Collaps, he still wants to get in.

06:00:40.840 --> 06:00:46.840
They finally defeat you, Toro. They kill him the once at least.

06:00:46.840 --> 06:00:50.840
Good, they synergized that pretty beautifully there too.

06:00:50.840 --> 06:00:56.840
I didn't see if they broke the tombstone. I think they did, right? They got snogged right afterwards from it, so it's pretty perfect that that ends up happening.

06:00:56.840 --> 06:00:59.840
And they get the call right afterwards so he doesn't get the September call.

06:00:59.840 --> 06:01:00.840
It can be done!

06:01:00.840 --> 06:01:03.840
It can be done, but they end up losing a lot out of it as well too.

06:01:03.840 --> 06:01:06.840
Nightfast, you're a cheap catch here on Talor. They've got that going.

06:01:06.840 --> 06:01:10.840
Well, listen, no one trying to come it out of the BKB's up for Laugh.

06:01:10.840 --> 06:01:11.840
Is that a storm?

06:01:11.840 --> 06:01:13.840
They didn't get the grab onto no one, Laugh.

06:01:13.840 --> 06:01:15.840
Falling lava collapsed, coming in with a save.

06:01:15.840 --> 06:01:16.840
Heals him up to the solar.

06:01:16.840 --> 06:01:17.840
He's Laugh strong, no one.

06:01:17.840 --> 06:01:20.840
We'll re-relocate back out of there in time to survive,

06:01:20.840 --> 06:01:22.840
but the Carlyse has been left out in the map.

06:01:23.840 --> 06:01:24.840
Well, too tanky.

06:01:24.840 --> 06:01:27.840
Too much regen gets to steal a lot here with the ship

06:01:27.840 --> 06:01:29.840
versus the IO over and over again,

06:01:29.840 --> 06:01:31.840
plus the healing from the Undying.

06:01:31.840 --> 06:01:33.840
Absolutely seeing that coming to play there.

06:01:33.840 --> 06:01:35.840
They said they're trying their hardest.

06:01:35.840 --> 06:01:42.240
They're doing some really cool execution plays, but at this deficit you can just see how hard it really is just too much

06:01:42.360 --> 06:01:44.360
It's our old back onto the push

06:01:47.240 --> 06:01:52.320
Not a different 25 seconds vision needs absolutely every little thing they can put together here

06:01:53.360 --> 06:01:58.440
Collapsed out level 25. He's gonna have like 10,000 HP when he pops that flesh column

06:01:58.440 --> 06:02:06.440
So the Brackstakes are in the mid-spirit, they can head over to the Roshan.

06:02:06.440 --> 06:02:09.440
Safe as play possible, Refresher shard.

06:02:09.440 --> 06:02:11.440
Some really good ones they can put that onto.

06:02:11.440 --> 06:02:14.440
Either the Disruptor, they can put it onto the Undying as well too.

06:02:14.440 --> 06:02:16.440
Some really good options that they can do.

06:02:16.440 --> 06:02:20.440
Even onto the Shard, everybody's a good option to get that Refresher shard.

06:02:20.440 --> 06:02:22.440
Don't wait for a moment here though.

06:02:22.440 --> 06:02:23.440
We'll see it again.

06:02:23.440 --> 06:02:27.940
The Toro had just died over there from that great chase that they were able to do, but yeah, Collapse.

06:02:28.940 --> 06:02:34.440
A different beast after they've expended so much. I mean, they sort of think about trying to do something about him, but...

06:02:34.440 --> 06:02:39.940
Not a lot that you can do about this undying right now with that amount of HP built up on him.

06:02:39.940 --> 06:02:41.440
Just walking at them.

06:02:42.940 --> 06:02:46.940
He's getting so much far too. He's got the Cloak of Flames, he's got the Greedy.

06:02:46.940 --> 06:02:49.440
The Toro, look at him with cheeky smiles. You know, you got me.

06:02:49.440 --> 06:02:51.200
And the necklace.

06:02:51.200 --> 06:02:52.760
Time to be said, they're from collapse.

06:02:52.760 --> 06:02:57.000
He is absolutely loving at hand on his undying.

06:02:57.000 --> 06:02:59.720
Roche on time, 18K lead.

06:02:59.720 --> 06:03:02.220
Vision.

06:03:02.220 --> 06:03:04.360
I don't think they can contest that area.

06:03:04.360 --> 06:03:06.000
High ground defenses, they can execute

06:03:06.000 --> 06:03:07.440
if they do utmost perfection.

06:03:07.440 --> 06:03:09.320
But around the rose, kind of suicide.

06:03:13.320 --> 06:03:15.040
Hold this person for you, Thoron.

06:03:19.440 --> 06:03:21.440
And he just...

06:03:21.440 --> 06:03:24.440
Freshly shot, available here, full collapse.

06:03:24.440 --> 06:03:26.440
Oh god, collapse has a full hex now too.

06:03:26.440 --> 06:03:29.440
Oh my goodness, just keeps flurrying out the items.

06:03:29.440 --> 06:03:31.440
He's keeping up in farm with an IOPOR.

06:03:31.440 --> 06:03:33.440
Very impressive that he's been able to fill.

06:03:33.440 --> 06:03:35.440
We see Satanic, his farm is pretty impressive too,

06:03:35.440 --> 06:03:37.440
but still, at that back foot...

06:03:39.440 --> 06:03:41.440
Even bigger rate, I mean, the stat...

06:03:41.440 --> 06:03:43.440
The static storm's gonna be massive.

06:03:43.440 --> 06:03:46.440
We don't see Disruptive, I actually forgot that was even a talent for him at 20.

06:03:46.440 --> 06:03:49.880
With that chasm stone too, this static storm is going to be huge.

06:03:49.880 --> 06:03:51.880
So many things that they're going to have to pre-BKB.

06:03:51.880 --> 06:03:55.480
Yeah, they either have to pre-BKB or they have to jump the disruptor and kill him at the start of the fight.

06:03:55.480 --> 06:03:58.040
So they're just going to get decimated from that axe.

06:03:59.040 --> 06:04:01.040
Push coming in toward the north side.

06:04:01.040 --> 06:04:02.040
Zora.

06:04:03.040 --> 06:04:04.040
The Aegis.

06:04:04.040 --> 06:04:05.540
He goes to the question room, he has the answer.

06:04:05.540 --> 06:04:07.840
Flaps now, finally switches his neutral item.

06:04:07.840 --> 06:04:13.840
Immediately said, Kenny, how's to put this BKB so terrified about what the threat in a quick tombstone dodge of the arrow.

06:04:13.840 --> 06:04:15.640
I mean, he needs to use their house key.

06:04:15.640 --> 06:04:19.340
So scary otherwise he's going to get heads or nine class outside of the base collapse

06:04:19.340 --> 06:04:22.880
He's waiting from inside of the base nine class. Did he get glitz back?

06:04:22.880 --> 06:04:27.620
I mean they just can't do anything about the fact that collapse is just standing there between them

06:04:27.620 --> 06:04:34.380
He has seven thousand five hundred HP good luck bringing me down and he puts the vessels onto the vessels gonna do like 300 damage per tick

06:04:36.200 --> 06:04:38.400
No vessel charges for many though I do call this so

06:04:38.400 --> 06:04:42.340
unfortunate for him. Somebody's got to do something.

06:04:42.340 --> 06:04:46.960
The tube stone jumps out. There's no BKB for satanic. How does it commit itself?

06:04:46.960 --> 06:04:52.560
They're going to try something. Arrow, just to try to push him off of

06:04:52.560 --> 06:04:58.400
Yatoro. The wrecks are falling. Standing strong.

06:04:58.400 --> 06:05:05.600
And they even get in the wants now. Back up, set up perfectly around Yatoro.

06:05:05.600 --> 06:05:11.100
Notice as the crawlers now picked up they spend their gold on the side of vision can't protect the racks

06:05:13.040 --> 06:05:16.920
Hope spirit they're gonna continue in this area continue to push

06:05:17.520 --> 06:05:21.400
If anyone steps out if roost sees them he will just play static stop grab them

06:05:22.760 --> 06:05:24.880
Vision desperate move here

06:05:25.480 --> 06:05:29.360
On the low ground notice gonna try to come to the other side and I was getting the call of the static

06:05:29.360 --> 06:05:36.360
He used his ult too to buy the front, he does not have buyback.

06:05:36.360 --> 06:05:41.360
Spare it. Should have what it takes here to finish off the final set of rex.

06:05:41.360 --> 06:05:43.360
Here connects.

06:05:43.360 --> 06:05:46.360
Let's say Tannick is going to try and jump the backline, maybe he'll still be able to kill off the support.

06:05:46.360 --> 06:05:49.360
So put the BKB in, look to chase down the willow.

06:05:49.360 --> 06:05:52.360
Can he at least get that? That's going to be all to give a sec.

06:05:52.360 --> 06:05:56.360
No one's just getting shredded by the right-nix of Yatoro. No one's gone.

06:05:56.360 --> 06:06:01.360
He's out for a hundred. They're getting close to killing off Collaps. He'll heal up with the Saurib and the Decay.

06:06:01.360 --> 06:06:02.360
It is too slow.

06:06:02.360 --> 06:06:03.860
He's still alive.

06:06:03.860 --> 06:06:06.360
Satanic is trying to run. No one comes.

06:06:06.360 --> 06:06:08.360
He doesn't fail him out of this.

06:06:09.360 --> 06:06:11.360
He'll be able to live, Satanic.

06:06:11.360 --> 06:06:14.360
They're just way too far ahead. Oh, and they're all too tanky.

06:06:14.360 --> 06:06:18.360
Your Toro's damage, he shrugs like it was no one actually gets away.

06:06:18.360 --> 06:06:22.360
And Collaps, he's back in with another jump. They get the Hex onto the Carlos.

06:06:22.360 --> 06:06:23.360
He's out.

06:06:23.360 --> 06:06:28.800
You'll buy Maxi, cut him to the jump, it's like change over to Lord Yatora, but it's a triple kill for Yatora!

06:06:28.800 --> 06:06:30.400
This game is over!

06:06:30.400 --> 06:06:31.760
G-gears call!

06:06:32.400 --> 06:06:36.880
A big spirit will take game one, Yatora finishes with a round!

06:06:36.880 --> 06:06:38.960
Paying care in Shanghai!

06:06:39.760 --> 06:06:44.400
The legendary carry himself having a pretty free game this time around.

06:06:44.400 --> 06:06:49.840
Vision trying something here that we've said multiple teams have tried with this Ember to dodge this Slard.

06:06:49.840 --> 06:06:52.480
They put the IO mid, but the Slard was doing pretty fine.

06:06:52.480 --> 06:06:58.440
They did get some kills on Laurel which is pretty impressive, but the biggest problem really was Gatoro is absolutely massive

06:06:58.440 --> 06:07:01.900
Yeah, points are getting a lot and collapsed to love the build we go for

06:07:01.900 --> 06:07:08.300
Going to make it play the pseudo kind of supportive style get these extra heels. They run this one over. They really do

06:07:08.300 --> 06:07:12.760
I guess at the least for team vision we did it from puppy to start right. They're trying

06:07:12.760 --> 06:07:17.360
They already knew they were trying something so they should be able to easily move past this into game two

06:07:17.360 --> 06:07:19.920
But as for this game one strap it did not work out

06:07:19.920 --> 06:07:23.520
I think that's what we're

06:07:23.520 --> 06:07:24.520
going to do. We're going to

06:07:24.520 --> 06:07:27.520
have to do that. It was a

06:07:27.520 --> 06:07:29.520
strata. We weren't necessarily

06:07:29.520 --> 06:07:31.520
sure how it was going to play

06:07:31.520 --> 06:07:33.520
up. We saw so many new things

06:07:33.520 --> 06:07:35.520
disruptor. It's its first pick

06:07:35.520 --> 06:07:37.520
here for T. I 15. We're also

06:07:37.520 --> 06:07:39.120
seeing no one playing that I

06:07:39.120 --> 06:07:40.520
hope for the first time and

06:07:40.520 --> 06:07:42.120
satanic playing in Ember spirit

06:07:42.120 --> 06:07:43.120
carry for the first time

06:07:43.120 --> 06:07:44.120
himself. I know we've seen

06:07:44.120 --> 06:07:45.720
Ember carry so far this

06:07:45.720 --> 06:07:46.720
tournament, but satanic

06:07:46.720 --> 06:07:48.120
himself having their first

06:07:48.120 --> 06:07:49.520
competitive games on those

06:07:49.520 --> 06:07:52.080
that confidence. But at the end of the day, what spirit cooked

06:07:52.080 --> 06:07:54.580
Quinn was just another level. Yeah, I think the answer to

06:07:54.580 --> 06:07:57.520
your question. Is this the place to do it is no, I think you

06:07:57.520 --> 06:07:59.720
want to go back to your comfort. You want to go back to the

06:07:59.720 --> 06:08:02.520
solid strategies you've played for the entirety of your

06:08:02.520 --> 06:08:04.820
career. We look at satanic. You think of him as the hard

06:08:04.820 --> 06:08:06.980
carry that scales into the late game that's going to put

06:08:06.980 --> 06:08:09.120
the team on the back. And how can you really do that

06:08:09.120 --> 06:08:11.280
with an Ember carry? It just wasn't the same level

06:08:11.280 --> 06:08:13.320
impact you're used to seeing from him. And I don't

06:08:13.320 --> 06:08:15.520
blame him. It's a very uncomfortable position to be

06:08:15.520 --> 06:08:18.180
in. Yeah, I mean, we heard some puppy in the coach

06:08:18.180 --> 06:08:22.380
coach interview that they have tried it before and it wasn't unexpected for them.

06:08:22.500 --> 06:08:26.740
And he thinks that TI is for trying things, and that's why they did it.

06:08:26.820 --> 06:08:29.620
But in practice, it didn't look that good.

06:08:29.660 --> 06:08:32.700
That IO mid didn't even manage to have a game against the Sark.

06:08:32.940 --> 06:08:36.300
The Ember lost about Undying Pit, which was brilliant because Team Spirit

06:08:36.300 --> 06:08:39.660
set up a situation where both sidelines would win and the mid flex

06:08:39.660 --> 06:08:40.740
didn't matter in Sanion.

06:08:41.140 --> 06:08:41.340
Yeah.

06:08:41.340 --> 06:08:45.260
I mean, to me, it just comes back to what you brought up about how maybe

06:08:45.260 --> 06:08:47.460
puppy is saying no to nine classes ideas.

06:08:47.460 --> 06:08:52.860
And for me personally, I feel like Titanic's been the player of the tournament, or the player of Team Vision at least.

06:08:52.860 --> 06:08:57.860
And put him in an Ember against some buying lane, you're not really setting him up for success.

06:08:57.860 --> 06:09:02.160
I feel like if you have a guy online class that could take that upon him, he could play that Ember.

06:09:02.160 --> 06:09:05.060
If something is done in the past, their lane didn't go well anyway.

06:09:05.060 --> 06:09:08.060
It's not like he's a particularly strong hoodling player.

06:09:08.060 --> 06:09:12.660
So, for me, it's just a little bit questionable how they approach this game one.

06:09:12.660 --> 06:09:16.060
But to be honest, in the best of five, you have a lot of room to do these kinds of things.

06:09:16.060 --> 06:09:18.580
and it doesn't matter for the next team. It's 0-0.

06:09:18.580 --> 06:09:22.080
Rune for growth, whichever way you want to look at it here,

06:09:22.080 --> 06:09:25.580
but it definitely felt like a game of Fluffs in some way as well,

06:09:25.580 --> 06:09:29.020
because whilst the execution was incredibly high from Spirit,

06:09:29.020 --> 06:09:32.620
it felt like that they were coming in almost as a continuation

06:09:32.620 --> 06:09:35.740
of the best of three that they had in their upper bracket two days ago,

06:09:35.740 --> 06:09:38.860
where it's, we actually know what you like, we know what you don't like,

06:09:38.860 --> 06:09:41.940
and so they try and put Loll on an uncomfortable slot

06:09:41.940 --> 06:09:46.020
that he hasn't necessarily shown or proved himself on the same way he has other heroes,

06:09:46.020 --> 06:09:50.060
I think it's a good idea. And

06:09:50.060 --> 06:09:51.960
vice versa again, where vision

06:09:51.960 --> 06:09:53.520
of thinking we've got this

06:09:53.520 --> 06:09:55.160
ember that we can move to other

06:09:55.160 --> 06:09:56.860
roles. We've got this IO that

06:09:56.860 --> 06:09:58.160
we know is comfortable mid, but

06:09:58.160 --> 06:09:59.160
at the end of the day, Quinn,

06:09:59.160 --> 06:10:00.760
I'm not really sure how that

06:10:00.760 --> 06:10:02.400
mid matchup played out. You

06:10:02.400 --> 06:10:03.400
said that it should be

06:10:03.400 --> 06:10:05.100
something more favorable to

06:10:05.100 --> 06:10:06.600
IO, but we didn't see that in

06:10:06.600 --> 06:10:08.200
eventuality. Yeah, I think it

06:10:08.200 --> 06:10:09.800
probably should. It ended up

06:10:09.800 --> 06:10:11.040
being where Slark takes a

06:10:11.040 --> 06:10:12.040
relatively decent early CS

06:10:12.040 --> 06:10:13.040
advantage, and I think you

06:10:13.040 --> 06:10:14.540
can talk a lot of it up to

06:10:14.540 --> 06:10:15.540
no one's inexperience on the

06:10:15.540 --> 06:10:17.380
and to how you move the spirits back and forth.

06:10:17.380 --> 06:10:19.860
It's a very finicky, I don't know,

06:10:19.860 --> 06:10:23.300
very isle-specific mechanic that not any other heroes have.

06:10:23.300 --> 06:10:25.620
And so I think I chalked it up to inexperience,

06:10:25.620 --> 06:10:28.420
and I think it's not just sort of a fault of vision,

06:10:28.420 --> 06:10:30.420
but it's a skill that the spirit is really good at.

06:10:30.420 --> 06:10:32.100
And I think specifically in finals,

06:10:32.100 --> 06:10:33.340
I felt this myself,

06:10:33.340 --> 06:10:34.660
that they are really good at taking you

06:10:34.660 --> 06:10:35.500
out of your comfort zone.

06:10:35.500 --> 06:10:37.380
It's not just vision doing it to themselves.

06:10:37.380 --> 06:10:38.860
They're picking things and banning it away

06:10:38.860 --> 06:10:39.940
that forces you to do that,

06:10:39.940 --> 06:10:41.300
or you feel compelled to it,

06:10:41.300 --> 06:10:43.740
almost like they're mind controlling you.

06:10:43.740 --> 06:10:49.460
On that topic of potential inexperience on the mid IO, that may very well be true, but

06:10:49.460 --> 06:10:54.220
watching it play out, I don't think IO has any inherent advantages against Sark.

06:10:54.220 --> 06:10:57.060
The way the hero functions in the mid lanes, it just swans.

06:10:57.060 --> 06:11:01.580
You trade farm, and for mid heroes to punish melee heroes, they have to make it so that

06:11:01.580 --> 06:11:06.020
if the melee heroes walk up to hit a creep, that they take absurd amounts of damage

06:11:06.020 --> 06:11:08.900
and that this doesn't happen with IO until later levels.

06:11:08.900 --> 06:11:12.380
And I think fundamentally the concept there was also wrong.

06:11:12.380 --> 06:11:15.980
to see. We're going to look

06:11:15.980 --> 06:11:16.980
at the earlier mark between

06:11:16.980 --> 06:11:18.580
these two right looking at

06:11:18.580 --> 06:11:19.980
about 10 minutes. I feel like

06:11:19.980 --> 06:11:20.980
that's that moment where you're

06:11:20.980 --> 06:11:22.180
wanting to see a little bit more

06:11:22.180 --> 06:11:23.380
movement coming out from your

06:11:23.380 --> 06:11:24.980
mid. You're hoping that they're

06:11:24.980 --> 06:11:26.580
going to be up there at the

06:11:26.580 --> 06:11:28.580
playmaker or this the solid rock

06:11:28.580 --> 06:11:30.180
for your team and hopefully

06:11:30.180 --> 06:11:31.580
that they've had a good enough

06:11:31.580 --> 06:11:33.180
lane for themselves. But when

06:11:33.180 --> 06:11:34.380
it comes to this mark, it's

06:11:34.380 --> 06:11:35.980
not necessarily a glaring

06:11:35.980 --> 06:11:37.780
obvious who is doing that for

06:11:37.780 --> 06:11:39.180
their team right when. Yeah,

06:11:39.180 --> 06:11:40.180
it's very even and you've

06:11:40.180 --> 06:11:41.180
got the pressure on the

06:11:41.180 --> 06:11:43.880
to play. They want to have

06:11:43.880 --> 06:11:44.580
just chilling, playing some

06:11:44.580 --> 06:11:45.580
matchup. It's whatever that's

06:11:45.580 --> 06:11:46.580
normal that he's fine in and

06:11:46.580 --> 06:11:47.580
they put pressure and they put

06:11:47.580 --> 06:11:48.580
the precedents on their

06:11:48.580 --> 06:11:49.580
sidelines to do well and have

06:11:49.580 --> 06:11:50.580
good matchups. And I think

06:11:50.580 --> 06:11:51.580
that came to fruition

06:11:51.580 --> 06:11:52.580
completely this game. It's

06:11:52.580 --> 06:11:54.080
exactly how they want to play.

06:11:54.080 --> 06:11:55.080
It's a bread and butter

06:11:55.080 --> 06:11:56.580
spirit draft. I feel like the

06:11:56.580 --> 06:11:57.580
main thing that I take away

06:11:57.580 --> 06:11:58.580
from the network is the

06:11:58.580 --> 06:12:00.580
net worth. The the it was

06:12:00.580 --> 06:12:01.580
passed to be a lot more

06:12:01.580 --> 06:12:02.580
far coming out of the matchup.

06:12:02.580 --> 06:12:03.580
All I see it needs to be

06:12:03.580 --> 06:12:06.080
almost 1000 gold. Wow. Okay,

06:12:06.080 --> 06:12:07.280
that is a big difference.

06:12:07.280 --> 06:12:08.080
And you mentioned something

06:12:08.080 --> 06:12:08.880
briefly Quinn, what you're

06:12:08.880 --> 06:12:09.880
talking about. It's a lot

06:12:09.880 --> 06:12:10.880
down to the sidelines.

06:12:10.880 --> 06:12:14.620
what's happening on the action

06:12:14.620 --> 06:12:15.880
there as well. How much more

06:12:15.880 --> 06:12:16.720
can their mid offer depending

06:12:16.720 --> 06:12:18.280
on how well their side leads

06:12:18.280 --> 06:12:19.720
ago, and we were to talk about

06:12:19.720 --> 06:12:20.920
it. This is the first official

06:12:20.920 --> 06:12:22.560
we've seen say Tannick on on

06:12:22.560 --> 06:12:23.760
that Embers spirit, and luckily

06:12:23.760 --> 06:12:24.760
we have purge is going to give

06:12:24.760 --> 06:12:25.760
us more information about how

06:12:25.760 --> 06:12:28.760
it played out for him. Yeah

06:12:28.760 --> 06:12:29.760
they tried out the Embers spirit

06:12:29.760 --> 06:12:30.760
with the shift to the safe

06:12:30.760 --> 06:12:31.760
lane. They thought they could

06:12:31.760 --> 06:12:33.760
make it work. Last I saw was

06:12:33.760 --> 06:12:34.760
a team liquid playing it, and

06:12:34.760 --> 06:12:35.760
it's definitely a little bit

06:12:35.760 --> 06:12:36.760
harder here. Say Tannick

06:12:36.760 --> 06:12:37.760
did his best in the lane.

06:12:37.760 --> 06:12:38.760
He did some nice little

06:12:38.760 --> 06:12:39.760
tricky things like dodging

06:12:39.760 --> 06:12:42.700
After a quick level 2 on Willow, she got a Deward here.

06:12:42.700 --> 06:12:46.680
This really nice Root is going to guarantee the kill on Seitanic, that got him a first

06:12:46.680 --> 06:12:47.680
blood.

06:12:47.680 --> 06:12:51.820
And the lane didn't really get that much better for a bit here because that level 3 now for

06:12:51.820 --> 06:12:53.700
Undying is very, very fearsome.

06:12:53.700 --> 06:12:57.160
He did use Flameguard to protect himself when he got gone on a bit here, which is

06:12:57.160 --> 06:13:00.080
going to give him a little bit of protection, but the downside is they have a lot of

06:13:00.080 --> 06:13:01.080
nuke damage here.

06:13:01.080 --> 06:13:04.360
So they actually were just bursting through his Flameguard and almost killing him.

06:13:04.360 --> 06:13:08.720
Here's his final death here that you would normally get successfully with that Seitanic.

06:13:08.720 --> 06:13:12.320
Of course he's gonna slight dodge that one as well even using another fairy fry to survive.

06:13:12.320 --> 06:13:13.320
He had a tough lane.

06:13:13.320 --> 06:13:18.220
They did gank the Undying but they did do this nice move on the Wisdom Shrine which allowed

06:13:18.220 --> 06:13:21.900
them to at the very least get the Wisdom Shrine but of course a ton of rotations here in

06:13:21.900 --> 06:13:23.900
Claff still got one support kill, so.

06:13:23.900 --> 06:13:27.540
But this was a nice moment for Satanic to catch up and in the end of this he's actually

06:13:27.540 --> 06:13:29.580
kind of close in-net worth if you take a look at it.

06:13:29.580 --> 06:13:32.060
All things considered, yeah he's really not that far away.

06:13:32.060 --> 06:13:33.060
So that was great.

06:13:33.060 --> 06:13:35.460
Then Yutora did some really interesting things in this game.

06:13:35.460 --> 06:13:39.180
He probably spotted him in the stream at some point showing up somewhere he's not supposed

06:13:39.180 --> 06:13:40.180
to be.

06:13:40.180 --> 06:13:41.180
So watch his path here.

06:13:41.180 --> 06:13:45.260
He was thinking about killing the axe, but axe basically got zoned because he's SF wins

06:13:45.260 --> 06:13:46.260
his matchups.

06:13:46.260 --> 06:13:48.300
And then he's just fishing to do mid pressure.

06:13:48.300 --> 06:13:49.300
There's a catapult at this moment.

06:13:49.300 --> 06:13:52.580
So it's a really good time for him to be here because if he's just successful at

06:13:52.580 --> 06:13:55.100
helping to get a kill, then they get a whole bunch more damage.

06:13:55.100 --> 06:13:57.100
And this is probably the moment you saw him on stream when he came here and

06:13:57.100 --> 06:13:58.520
double raised the enemy mid.

06:13:58.520 --> 06:14:00.900
This is kind of crazy to look at, but if you look at what happened on the map

06:14:00.900 --> 06:14:04.980
here, he's basically forcing Io to go farm these camps over here, which means

06:14:04.980 --> 06:14:08.860
He's super far away from the mid lane, so it basically makes it easier for them to pressure

06:14:08.860 --> 06:14:12.420
the mid lane and for his Slark to get as much farm as he wants.

06:14:12.420 --> 06:14:14.260
And a short time later, he basically does the same thing.

06:14:14.260 --> 06:14:17.580
He's going to clear the wave, he's going to walk towards mid, he's going to take this

06:14:17.580 --> 06:14:21.200
nice little ancient stack, which is beautiful for him, and he's going to do the same thing.

06:14:21.200 --> 06:14:22.920
Hide him behind the tower, looking for a hero.

06:14:22.920 --> 06:14:26.780
He ends up spotting out 9 class, which guarantees the vision, which guarantees the kill,

06:14:26.780 --> 06:14:28.500
and again guarantees the tower.

06:14:28.500 --> 06:14:32.900
This early pressure that Yatoro did to rotate, it didn't take a huge amount of him.

06:14:32.900 --> 06:14:36.480
He lost a little bit gold, but he got some nice ganks and that pressure really opened

06:14:36.480 --> 06:14:37.480
things up on the map.

06:14:37.480 --> 06:14:41.180
The mid was opened up, collapsed at this really sick play, getting the kill on Satanic, and

06:14:41.180 --> 06:14:44.340
as a whole the lane just went great for Team Spirit.

06:14:44.340 --> 06:14:47.160
Thank you so much, Perj.

06:14:47.160 --> 06:14:49.720
We're seeing it play out in real time.

06:14:49.720 --> 06:14:54.520
The Yatoro of TI 10, that's what he was praised for time and time again was how

06:14:54.520 --> 06:14:58.680
early he was willing to rotate to mid, how he was willing to help out other cores

06:14:58.680 --> 06:15:00.680
you're supposed to always be

06:15:00.680 --> 06:15:02.680
farming if you're not out there

06:15:02.680 --> 06:15:03.680
in your lane. And at the end of

06:15:03.680 --> 06:15:04.680
the day, he goes, Well, there's

06:15:04.680 --> 06:15:05.680
other means to get kills. There's

06:15:05.680 --> 06:15:06.680
other means to be able to shut

06:15:06.680 --> 06:15:08.680
down our opponents, and that is

06:15:08.680 --> 06:15:09.680
pushing the middle later out as

06:15:09.680 --> 06:15:11.680
far as possible. Yeah, I love

06:15:11.680 --> 06:15:12.680
those clips. I think that it

06:15:12.680 --> 06:15:13.680
really shows some of the skills

06:15:13.680 --> 06:15:15.680
that he at all doesn't always

06:15:15.680 --> 06:15:16.680
show. But somehow when it comes

06:15:16.680 --> 06:15:17.680
to TI, when it comes to the

06:15:17.680 --> 06:15:19.680
finals, he just builds this

06:15:19.680 --> 06:15:20.680
extra awareness of places he

06:15:20.680 --> 06:15:21.680
can be places he can pressure.

06:15:21.680 --> 06:15:22.680
These are split second

06:15:22.680 --> 06:15:23.680
decisions that you need to

06:15:23.680 --> 06:15:24.680
make in very specific

06:15:24.680 --> 06:15:26.680
moments. And I think that

06:15:26.680 --> 06:15:30.600
that you need to make in very specific moments or you're just going to miss the opportunity and he's

06:15:30.600 --> 06:15:34.760
so in the moment he's so clutching these finals almost no one else would make these moves but

06:15:34.760 --> 06:15:40.760
Yatoro in zone is just a different beast. To add on to that it is Team Spirit's understanding of

06:15:40.760 --> 06:15:45.880
which lanes to focus on has always been some of the most impressive out of all the teams in Dota

06:15:45.880 --> 06:15:49.960
but they had this knowledge that if IO doesn't have any kind of farm they won't be able to

06:15:49.960 --> 06:15:54.040
make moves because both side lanes were shut down so if they moved their emphasis to the

06:15:54.040 --> 06:15:58.520
mid lane and pushed no one into the jungle, then there really was no tempo or counter play for a

06:15:58.520 --> 06:16:03.240
very long time. And I do have to give them props for how they set up the disruptor. Playing disruptor

06:16:03.240 --> 06:16:09.320
with Sark's Night Vision and an SF coming mid, you're just happy in that situation, IE and Savion.

06:16:09.320 --> 06:16:14.120
Yeah, I mean, I think when I played disruptor 2, my favorite heroes to lane with were TB and SF

06:16:14.120 --> 06:16:17.240
and it's just because they provide so much overwhelming damage. Whenever you glimpse

06:16:17.240 --> 06:16:22.920
someone back, they just immediately die. And that's like what they do on the lane, but then

06:16:22.920 --> 06:16:27.080
Yatoro takes up one step further and he just makes sure that he's connected to all the moves that the instructor wants to make.

06:16:27.080 --> 06:16:29.800
When the instructor wants to move mid, well, he's there to provide the damage.

06:16:29.800 --> 06:16:34.840
And now suddenly, anybody that's within 1600 range of a instructor is just dead.

06:16:34.840 --> 06:16:36.920
Yeah, you can see it in from just the positioning.

06:16:36.920 --> 06:16:40.200
The SF is not playing like a typical turd and that he's standing behind everyone.

06:16:40.200 --> 06:16:44.840
For the majority of this game, Yatoro is standing in front of everyone because he supports wants to stand behind.

06:16:44.840 --> 06:16:47.320
He's charging at them so then the instructor can glimpse them back.

06:16:47.320 --> 06:16:51.400
That's such an unusual sort of switch of priority and how you're even just standing.

06:16:51.400 --> 06:16:56.420
these are the little things that go into the greatness that is these tier one carry players or tier one players in general on the

06:16:56.420 --> 06:17:01.900
biggest stage that he sees in the moment. This is a time for me to walk up and chat up for my support. So we're going to sit

06:17:01.900 --> 06:17:05.620
behind compared to the inverse. That is amazing awareness in the moment.

06:17:05.620 --> 06:17:11.380
The domino effects that can happen in Dota are so beautiful because when you think about it, you're like, okay,

06:17:11.380 --> 06:17:17.900
Slark, Knight vision. And yes, the Serpter, he needs vision. But if your sidelines are so overwhelming, you can play on the

06:17:17.900 --> 06:17:22.300
first night after minute five that's when the laning stage occurs and that's when a lot of the kills

06:17:22.300 --> 06:17:26.780
were happening after those first five minutes so from the first night to be able to make that many

06:17:26.780 --> 06:17:31.180
kills happen off of your vision strategy we don't see that very often usually it's the second or

06:17:31.180 --> 06:17:35.420
third night that this really becomes significant i don't think i've ever seen a first night be that

06:17:35.420 --> 06:17:40.620
impactful it's rare it's honestly super rare that you have like a disruptor in a winning

06:17:40.620 --> 06:17:45.260
lane a slark mid of all things and then they carry willing to connect as well so i think

06:17:45.260 --> 06:17:48.460
all three of these things have to align for us to have this beautiful early game.

06:17:48.460 --> 06:17:52.940
I just love it. The way that the draft played out, well, like this is one of the biggest cooking

06:17:52.940 --> 06:17:57.900
sessions that we've seen before should be able to do a disruptor that hasn't been picked at all

06:17:57.900 --> 06:18:03.180
in this TI. Like the fact that it goes two whole weeks completely overlooked, even though SF,

06:18:03.180 --> 06:18:07.660
even though SMOC have been gaining traction, SF was definitely one of those things in this

06:18:07.660 --> 06:18:11.980
patch coming in. People were first phase banning, and so we talk about this cycle. Now it's

06:18:11.980 --> 06:18:16.540
back in the hero pool. Now there is adjustments that need to be made and more importantly that

06:18:16.540 --> 06:18:21.100
pressure is on vision. We've seen them lose games but they're in best of threes and it's normally a

06:18:21.100 --> 06:18:25.260
game two that they're losing when they're already up. So now they're going to be starting the best

06:18:25.260 --> 06:18:29.180
of five on the back foot. Yeah there's room for experimentation because you need to be able to

06:18:29.180 --> 06:18:34.140
have three games to win but you've done your experimenting in a game number one and so

06:18:34.140 --> 06:18:37.900
when it comes to game two even though that experimenting didn't work do you still

06:18:37.900 --> 06:18:40.300
still have faith that you need to go down that route?

06:18:40.300 --> 06:18:41.580
I feel like you've mixed it up.

06:18:41.580 --> 06:18:43.460
I don't think they went for this Ember.

06:18:43.460 --> 06:18:46.460
The idea was Lord doesn't play Slark, and coming into the series I would have said the

06:18:46.460 --> 06:18:47.460
same thing.

06:18:47.460 --> 06:18:48.460
Okay.

06:18:48.460 --> 06:18:50.860
So, you know, Spirit kind of cashed them a card, they got the Slark, they played the

06:18:50.860 --> 06:18:54.100
Ember, and now you're just going to shift priorities, there's so many other heroes in

06:18:54.100 --> 06:18:56.260
the Ember Spirit, you're not relying on this hero.

06:18:56.260 --> 06:18:59.220
You know, there's a difference between a team like Vision and maybe Nigma that

06:18:59.220 --> 06:19:00.620
needed to play the Ember.

06:19:00.620 --> 06:19:02.380
These guys have a lot more of the difference.

06:19:02.380 --> 06:19:03.900
Yeah, you're here for a reason.

06:19:03.900 --> 06:19:05.380
You've proven you're out the entire tournament.

06:19:05.380 --> 06:19:08.100
You are one of the best teams if not the best team in the tournament

06:19:08.100 --> 06:19:10.260
That was not a fair showing of their true potential

06:19:10.260 --> 06:19:16.540
They're playing extremely on comfort on multiple roles go back to where you're good at and show the world and show spirit

06:19:16.540 --> 06:19:18.460
Why you're in this final you deserve to be here

06:19:18.460 --> 06:19:21.740
This is not the moment where you push over and say they're just better than us

06:19:21.740 --> 06:19:26.340
This is where you steal yourself and you go back to this and say we're here for a reason and now we're gonna show you

06:19:26.340 --> 06:19:31.060
Yeah, that felt like a statement by puppy that if they take ember away from team spirit

06:19:31.060 --> 06:19:35.300
then Laurel doesn't have heroes that they're uncomfortable dealing with in terms of tempo,

06:19:35.300 --> 06:19:40.020
because if not the Ember, what have we seen Laurel play that pushed the team's spirit

06:19:40.020 --> 06:19:43.700
supports forward on the map? I mean, another hero would be Pango, but it hasn't been that

06:19:43.700 --> 06:19:48.180
successful this tournament for him. And Puppy basically just said that our plan is to take

06:19:48.180 --> 06:19:52.420
it away. And if they do plan on taking it away again, it would just be with Sark being

06:19:52.420 --> 06:19:55.620
factored into the vans. I don't think it's a bad idea to go for Ember.

06:19:55.620 --> 06:19:58.500
Yeah, absolutely. But then you open up doors or potentially a vein,

06:19:58.500 --> 06:20:03.680
potentially of winter wyvern and we just I don't see I feel like we just got to see what how they react to this

06:20:03.680 --> 06:20:10.380
It's it's hard to make any sort of predictions about what what their take from the game is because for me at least watching

06:20:10.380 --> 06:20:12.800
I think you don't want satanic on ember

06:20:12.800 --> 06:20:17.160
We want him on some sort of win condition and if this is the plan B then I don't like the plan

06:20:17.560 --> 06:20:24.320
Yeah, I think it's also interesting how the sort of the order of these drafts pans out whenever hard counters like this

06:20:24.320 --> 06:20:28.120
the next phase compared to. If

06:20:28.120 --> 06:20:29.120
you try to pre ban it, then

06:20:29.120 --> 06:20:30.320
they will just respond with the

06:20:30.320 --> 06:20:31.320
ember bands. You can actually

06:20:31.320 --> 06:20:33.320
never get ember if your first

06:20:33.320 --> 06:20:35.320
pick and these things can arise

06:20:35.320 --> 06:20:37.320
and change how teams prioritized

06:20:37.320 --> 06:20:39.320
draft order and how shift how

06:20:39.320 --> 06:20:40.320
the lineups are created because

06:20:40.320 --> 06:20:41.320
maybe ember was crucial and now

06:20:41.320 --> 06:20:42.320
you can't get anymore from that

06:20:42.320 --> 06:20:44.320
pick side. It's always a

06:20:44.320 --> 06:20:45.320
big challenge. You know,

06:20:45.320 --> 06:20:46.320
you can't get the first pick

06:20:46.320 --> 06:20:47.320
and you can't get the first

06:20:47.320 --> 06:20:48.320
pick and you can't get the

06:20:48.320 --> 06:20:49.320
first pick and you can't get

06:20:49.320 --> 06:20:50.320
the first pick and you can't

06:20:50.320 --> 06:20:51.320
get the first pick and you

06:20:51.320 --> 06:20:52.320
can't get the first pick

06:20:52.320 --> 06:20:53.320
and you can't get the first

06:20:53.320 --> 06:20:57.480
it's always the back and forth

06:20:57.480 --> 06:20:59.320
when it does come to drafting.

06:20:59.320 --> 06:21:01.320
Are you a team that loves to and

06:21:01.320 --> 06:21:03.320
thrives on that first pick? Are

06:21:03.320 --> 06:21:05.320
you team that wants to wait until

06:21:05.320 --> 06:21:07.320
the end to be able to be more

06:21:07.320 --> 06:21:09.320
reactionary and know that you have

06:21:09.320 --> 06:21:11.320
that depth within you there and

06:21:11.320 --> 06:21:13.320
we're seeing all of our players

06:21:13.320 --> 06:21:14.320
that worked out on stage sitting

06:21:14.320 --> 06:21:16.320
back down the booth and we've

06:21:16.320 --> 06:21:18.320
brought this up time and time

06:21:18.320 --> 06:21:20.320
again is how necessarily

06:21:20.320 --> 06:21:22.320
division feel after a loss,

06:21:22.320 --> 06:21:28.320
and we just looked towards a whole brand new game here and I honestly think it's the second of those two options because even though

06:21:28.320 --> 06:21:32.080
We've seen them be the team with an early GG in a game at TI

06:21:32.600 --> 06:21:33.960
There were still a lot of laughs

06:21:33.960 --> 06:21:41.320
There are still a lot of smiles and I think the camaraderie between vision is much stronger than maybe public perception sees. I think so too

06:21:41.320 --> 06:21:44.320
And I mean no one was smiling at Satanic at the end of the game

06:21:44.320 --> 06:21:46.920
It's not a starting and they seem to be okay

06:21:46.920 --> 06:21:54.280
I think they have this understanding that when it's the draft issue then you go next like Insania loves to say every game is

06:21:54.280 --> 06:21:58.800
Zero zero you give up on the loss loss. Yeah, I think you just forget about the last game

06:21:58.800 --> 06:22:00.360
I think you could draw some drafting lessons

06:22:00.360 --> 06:22:04.460
But that's mostly for puppy to do and I think for the players is just we're gonna go into the game

06:22:04.460 --> 06:22:05.800
We're gonna run it back

06:22:05.800 --> 06:22:09.480
We had a series against spirit before where we lost the game and it's nothing new to us

06:22:09.480 --> 06:22:13.760
We've done this before and I feel like they've proven throughout this tournament that they are not fazed by losses

06:22:13.760 --> 06:22:19.800
This has happened so many times and this whole idea of like they used to be a team that tilted out a series or stuff like that

06:22:19.800 --> 06:22:23.480
It's just doesn't apply to them anymore. Yeah, and again, they have so many approaches

06:22:23.480 --> 06:22:27.960
They can take an adraft queen like they're loan druid or natures profit. Yeah, I totally agree

06:22:27.960 --> 06:22:31.320
I think they've got plenty of tricks in the bag still and I think they've also gotten

06:22:31.320 --> 06:22:34.480
I hope some of the jitters out of the way if you look at some of the clips of purge

06:22:34.800 --> 06:22:38.800
Showing the ember spirit walks back into a bramble or no one maybe is CSing

06:22:38.800 --> 06:22:43.160
It's a little bit off and laying I think some of that is it's a grand final. It just feels a little different

06:22:43.160 --> 06:22:45.580
It's a little bigger, grander, scarier.

06:22:45.580 --> 06:22:46.880
Ha ha ha.

06:22:46.880 --> 06:22:48.280
You'll love to see it.

06:22:48.280 --> 06:22:49.000
Brunos!

06:22:49.000 --> 06:22:50.320
Brunos, it's him.

06:22:50.320 --> 06:22:52.680
You'll love to see the smiles and finals.

06:22:52.680 --> 06:22:55.000
I think it's very easy to get sucked into,

06:22:55.000 --> 06:22:57.360
especially when you're down to game distress and pressure of,

06:22:57.360 --> 06:22:59.560
we're down, we need to come back, we need to fix things.

06:22:59.560 --> 06:23:01.400
There's problems, and these can mount up

06:23:01.400 --> 06:23:02.960
and feel like this overwhelming dread

06:23:02.960 --> 06:23:04.240
sort of enveloping you.

06:23:04.240 --> 06:23:07.800
But I think the ability to not only try to win,

06:23:07.800 --> 06:23:09.120
which is the most important thing,

06:23:09.120 --> 06:23:11.520
but also appreciate this is a very special moment

06:23:11.520 --> 06:23:12.720
you may never get again.

06:23:12.720 --> 06:23:15.780
you never know whenever these

06:23:15.780 --> 06:23:16.580
things will happen, but it is

06:23:16.580 --> 06:23:17.780
a very competitive game. People

06:23:17.780 --> 06:23:19.780
fall by the wayside all the time.

06:23:19.780 --> 06:23:21.280
And so I think being able to laugh

06:23:21.280 --> 06:23:22.280
and appreciate the moment, the

06:23:22.280 --> 06:23:23.280
privilege you've been given, I

06:23:23.280 --> 06:23:24.280
think it's something they should

06:23:24.280 --> 06:23:26.280
all very much like to do. We

06:23:26.280 --> 06:23:28.280
also saw just briefly there. We

06:23:28.280 --> 06:23:29.280
had not me come up on the screen,

06:23:29.280 --> 06:23:30.280
and I think it's a face not a

06:23:30.280 --> 06:23:32.280
lot of people are familiar with

06:23:32.280 --> 06:23:34.280
for two reasons. One. This

06:23:34.280 --> 06:23:36.280
is his first T. I appearance.

06:23:36.280 --> 06:23:37.280
You're making it to a grand

06:23:37.280 --> 06:23:39.280
final with a veteran and a

06:23:39.280 --> 06:23:41.280
decorated all get such as

06:23:41.280 --> 06:23:45.240
And I know coming into the grand finals, we were all discussing is it going to be both

06:23:45.240 --> 06:23:47.280
tourable over in the Chinese stream?

06:23:47.280 --> 06:23:53.120
Delz was talking to Mokoshka and asked Mokoshka about, oh, did you guys consider shaving Yutaro's

06:23:53.120 --> 06:23:54.120
head?

06:23:54.120 --> 06:23:55.480
And he goes, it worked twice.

06:23:55.480 --> 06:23:57.680
We don't really think it's going to work at third time.

06:23:57.680 --> 06:24:01.840
And as the rookie, not me had to take it, and he was more than willing to shave

06:24:01.840 --> 06:24:03.480
his beard instead.

06:24:03.480 --> 06:24:07.280
I love that this is kind of an initiation ritual for a team spirit.

06:24:07.280 --> 06:24:14.040
I mean there is a very specific culture in this team and you can really watch it unfold in moments like these in the TI Grand Finals

06:24:14.200 --> 06:24:16.200
We've alluded to draft

06:24:16.560 --> 06:24:22.960
Alterations that need to be had the preparation and the pressure of those said drafts really falls on Poppy and Moposhka

06:24:22.960 --> 06:24:25.420
And so we'll see how it pans out for a game number two

06:24:27.720 --> 06:24:34.920
Team Vision versus Team Spirit Grand Finals

06:24:34.920 --> 06:24:42.920
game. It's going to be

06:24:42.920 --> 06:24:44.920
spirit with their first pick.

06:24:44.920 --> 06:24:46.920
And so it does bring back all

06:24:46.920 --> 06:24:48.920
of those theories that you guys

06:24:48.920 --> 06:24:50.920
were crafting. Where does this

06:24:50.920 --> 06:24:52.920
ember take priority now? Where

06:24:52.920 --> 06:24:54.920
does this lock fall in the

06:24:54.920 --> 06:24:56.920
drop if you're willing or

06:24:56.920 --> 06:24:58.920
wanting to take ember in the

06:24:58.920 --> 06:25:00.920
first phase? There's this

06:25:00.920 --> 06:25:02.920
really cool thing about

06:25:02.920 --> 06:25:06.760
There's this really cool thing you can do here, if you're a team spirit.

06:25:06.760 --> 06:25:11.120
Like let's see, we're going to see Visions 2 first bans, and if they notice that there's

06:25:11.120 --> 06:25:14.400
like two heroes that they want to ban out, that we know they want to ban, and we don't

06:25:14.400 --> 06:25:17.680
want to give them the opportunity to do it, you can ban out the Slark, forcing them to

06:25:17.680 --> 06:25:20.760
ban the Ember, and then giving you one of those heroes that you want to play in the

06:25:20.760 --> 06:25:22.760
upcoming situation.

06:25:22.760 --> 06:25:26.760
Yeah, it's definitely something you consider, and with the way the bans have been changed

06:25:26.760 --> 06:25:30.960
over the years, the order of them is very important, and trading bans in that

06:25:30.960 --> 06:25:34.960
forced way is is definitely a very smart and cool tactic. They choose to pass on it in this

06:25:34.960 --> 06:25:38.080
instance, but it's something that may come into effect in later games as well.

06:25:39.040 --> 06:25:44.080
With the Nature's Prophet taken out by Team Spirit, I think if you're Team Vision,

06:25:44.080 --> 06:25:48.800
you can comfortably lean back on your Lone Druid. And there's always the concern of the first

06:25:48.800 --> 06:25:52.160
pick Winter Wyvern coming out from Team Spirit, but you have two vans here.

06:25:53.280 --> 06:25:56.480
Instead, they ban the Vayne, Vayne covers for Ember, it covers for Io.

06:25:56.480 --> 06:26:03.320
I wonder if these will these will be the bands that they continue with throughout the series.

06:26:03.320 --> 06:26:08.320
I know in the finals we played that sometimes you're wrong about the first phase bands.

06:26:08.320 --> 06:26:12.080
It can be a bit tricky to actually get those right and it's so much easier from a third

06:26:12.080 --> 06:26:15.800
you know third eye perspective or from after the series if you're like obviously we should

06:26:15.800 --> 06:26:16.800
have banned this instead.

06:26:16.800 --> 06:26:20.600
Nature's Prophet was too broken but sometimes you get mixed up and you ban the wrong heroes

06:26:20.600 --> 06:26:25.480
in the moment and I think considering those and really making sure is this really integral

06:26:25.480 --> 06:26:29.320
to their draft. Is this what binds them together is such an important thing.

06:26:29.320 --> 06:26:33.220
Vision are looking at their final ban here and what's being left in the pool from game

06:26:33.220 --> 06:26:38.000
number one is that Wyvern. It's also the Earth Spirit and the Coddle. And now it feels

06:26:38.000 --> 06:26:41.080
like you're in a tricky situation because at least two of those are getting through

06:26:41.080 --> 06:26:43.880
along again with maybe that Ember.

06:26:43.880 --> 06:26:46.960
I mean I think that you have a lot of things to consider here right. If you ban

06:26:46.960 --> 06:26:50.840
the Slark then Spirit picks Ember. Are you happy to play Earth Spirit into Ember?

06:26:50.840 --> 06:26:54.620
We've seen Coddle out of success in that matchup specifically. Winter Wyvern has been

06:26:54.620 --> 06:26:59.500
Spirits go to first pick, I feel like in every single game that we've seen them play, when it's there, they always go for it.

06:26:59.500 --> 06:27:03.100
So it's it's a tricky situation. You have to kind of look at the matchup

06:27:03.100 --> 06:27:05.300
So you get and what kind of trade you want to make here?

06:27:06.700 --> 06:27:12.600
They definitely could go for a spirit trade. They've left Earth Spirit a hero that's been very very dominant Laurel's very capable of

06:27:13.220 --> 06:27:14.780
Ember is a classic response

06:27:14.780 --> 06:27:16.700
It's not really a lane counter anymore

06:27:16.700 --> 06:27:21.260
But in the game you buy Vessel and you buy Mage Slayer and you can negate some of his fighting with your own fighting

06:27:21.260 --> 06:27:23.140
So they could be saying hey, you take one spirit

06:27:23.140 --> 06:27:27.140
We take the other the spirit declines the trade and says you told cook so hard last game

06:27:27.140 --> 06:27:29.580
We're just running it back because we don't think you have answers. I

06:27:30.740 --> 06:27:32.740
Wonder it may think that

06:27:32.980 --> 06:27:36.540
notice hero pool suffers very hard against the shadow fiend because

06:27:36.940 --> 06:27:40.300
There is always a potential the dark seer coming out to counter at the SF

06:27:40.620 --> 06:27:45.860
But maybe they think that that's very easy to deal with with any kind of the spell any enchantress any lardo

06:27:45.860 --> 06:27:51.480
I think the Dark Syrians SF matchup is very much of a laning or not so much of a laning matchup

06:27:51.480 --> 06:27:53.300
And I feel like the way that team spirit are playing right now

06:27:53.300 --> 06:27:57.000
I feel like if they can guarantee that they have side lane pressure from the torres SF

06:27:57.000 --> 06:28:00.820
They're just gonna go for the SF looking at the matchup scene like nothing really pressures us

06:28:00.820 --> 06:28:05.000
They might be counters us down the line like we saw them earlier today on the TV themselves

06:28:05.000 --> 06:28:08.060
So there are ways to deal with it, but they just want to get that pressure early on

06:28:08.060 --> 06:28:12.540
We don't want to delay snowball and team vision go forward the earth spirit

06:28:12.540 --> 06:28:17.180
It's a very solid response. There's nothing wrong with this at all and to be honest

06:28:17.180 --> 06:28:19.820
I already like this opener more for vision than I did last game

06:28:20.460 --> 06:28:24.500
This Earth Spirit hero it's just so good against all the turrets because you have a way to gap close

06:28:24.500 --> 06:28:25.820
And so you get on top of the shadow fiend

06:28:25.820 --> 06:28:30.340
You may can start running and the whole advantage turrets have is they can hit you while you run into them

06:28:30.340 --> 06:28:33.140
So if you close that gap immediately and you just roll on top of them

06:28:33.140 --> 06:28:38.180
Well, now suddenly he's running away and that's those are valuable seconds that he's not hitting you and dealing DPS

06:28:38.180 --> 06:28:42.860
Yeah, on the flip side of that is Urspirit, we've seen him kind of struggle when he rolls

06:28:42.860 --> 06:28:45.020
in and there's a turret hitting him.

06:28:45.020 --> 06:28:49.020
If he misses his initial stun and he doesn't have backup, you're getting 5 shotted by the

06:28:49.020 --> 06:28:50.020
Shadow Fiend.

06:28:50.020 --> 06:28:53.940
So a lot of it is execution based at later stages of the game too.

06:28:53.940 --> 06:28:55.100
And Darkseer does get taken out.

06:28:55.100 --> 06:28:58.540
I think once the Urspirit shows you can't let Darkseer through, it just creates too

06:28:58.540 --> 06:29:00.060
strong of a combination.

06:29:00.060 --> 06:29:01.540
Yeah, absolutely agree.

06:29:01.540 --> 06:29:05.700
I think, you know, if you have the opportunity to ban heroes, of course you should ban

06:29:05.700 --> 06:29:07.540
the heroes, a counter you're down the line, right?

06:29:07.540 --> 06:29:09.500
you don't need to give away the possible best matchups

06:29:09.500 --> 06:29:10.740
for your opponents.

06:29:10.740 --> 06:29:12.740
So, good ban from Spirit here.

06:29:12.740 --> 06:29:14.420
I'm trying to think, because we've talked about

06:29:14.420 --> 06:29:16.060
how important the support has been in this matchup,

06:29:16.060 --> 06:29:16.900
and I think there you go.

06:29:16.900 --> 06:29:17.900
The Coddles out.

06:29:17.900 --> 06:29:19.780
This was a hero that pairs very well with the Ember

06:29:19.780 --> 06:29:21.420
and the Earth Spirit, any sort of spirit really.

06:29:21.420 --> 06:29:22.660
Coddles happy to play with.

06:29:22.660 --> 06:29:25.100
And 9-Class has proven to find opportunities

06:29:25.100 --> 06:29:26.100
to make moves to this hero

06:29:26.100 --> 06:29:29.540
that no other player has done at this tournament.

06:29:29.540 --> 06:29:31.940
Yeah, it's very impressive.

06:29:31.940 --> 06:29:34.460
I think also, the man on camera,

06:29:34.460 --> 06:29:35.620
he has been so impressive.

06:29:35.620 --> 06:29:37.620
the fact that there's a clockwork first-phase ban.

06:29:37.620 --> 06:29:39.920
I hear that no one else really cares about that much,

06:29:39.920 --> 06:29:43.320
but he is so terrifying with the accuracy of these cogs

06:29:43.320 --> 06:29:45.020
that they have to first-phase ban it every game.

06:29:45.020 --> 06:29:46.220
That's so much value.

06:29:46.220 --> 06:29:47.520
That's why you're getting the Shadow Femes

06:29:47.520 --> 06:29:49.520
because he's so proficient at that clockwork.

06:29:49.520 --> 06:29:51.520
These things add up like crazy.

06:29:51.520 --> 06:29:52.720
We're always good too.

06:29:52.720 --> 06:29:53.720
I do think you have to account

06:29:53.720 --> 06:29:55.520
for a potential Ember still on vision,

06:29:55.520 --> 06:29:57.620
like maybe an Enchantress for Decalus or something

06:29:57.620 --> 06:29:59.020
because it's still in the pool.

06:29:59.020 --> 06:30:01.420
We know Laurel's going to play it.

06:30:01.420 --> 06:30:02.320
Yep, there you go.

06:30:02.320 --> 06:30:03.220
What's it called, Mero?

06:30:03.220 --> 06:30:08.500
spells for the Flame Guard and the Mid Pressure. I do wonder though, if you're getting run-up non-stop

06:30:08.500 --> 06:30:12.340
by Enchantress as an Ember Spirit, what do you need from your support squim?

06:30:13.140 --> 06:30:17.860
I think you want pressure elsewhere. Enchantress, the biggest thing about the Zero is if she's free

06:30:17.860 --> 06:30:21.220
to attack. She doesn't actually have any spells, and so it takes her a little bit of time to get

06:30:21.220 --> 06:30:25.300
the creep, to walk there, to get the right angle, to wait for Enchant to come off cooldown,

06:30:25.300 --> 06:30:28.980
so you can slow with the creep. There's a lot of prerequisites that sort of have to be met,

06:30:28.980 --> 06:30:31.780
and if there's a ton of fighting and there's gate ganking and all these things,

06:30:31.780 --> 06:30:36.420
the pressure in the side lanes, well she doesn't have the time and the freedom to go mid and make moves there.

06:30:36.420 --> 06:30:40.420
So I think you're kind of like your team, can y'all put some pressure elsewhere? Let me like do my thing here.

06:30:40.420 --> 06:30:45.220
And I think that is spirit somehow, right? Like they want to have that side lane pressure to prevent you from going mid,

06:30:45.220 --> 06:30:51.060
to prevent you from pushing this, uh, Laurel potential ember spirit. We haven't even seen it yet,

06:30:51.060 --> 06:30:52.580
but of course we have to consider it here.

06:30:54.260 --> 06:31:01.140
I love this, them moving the priority up on the Slotter because we sort of get banned out in the final phases of bans.

06:31:01.140 --> 06:31:05.060
And I know that they will go in for more of a different trajectory when it came to Spirit,

06:31:05.060 --> 06:31:09.820
but to be able to have it so freely right now, I'm like, I'm excited to see what it's

06:31:09.820 --> 06:31:11.660
going to bring to Grand Final.

06:31:11.660 --> 06:31:12.660
That's really cool.

06:31:12.660 --> 06:31:17.660
I mean, I love the combo of Amplify Damage with SF, but outside of that, Slardar was

06:31:17.660 --> 06:31:21.140
kind of a lane counter to Earth Spirit for a while last month, and people gave up

06:31:21.140 --> 06:31:22.140
on it.

06:31:22.140 --> 06:31:26.220
I think another nice dynamic with Slardar is Lina, who's very popular in this patch,

06:31:26.220 --> 06:31:29.220
has been shown to be countered by Slardar the last couple of days.

06:31:29.220 --> 06:31:30.220
Yeah.

06:31:30.220 --> 06:31:34.700
You're producing options, right? You pick Sardar, you know they're not going to pick any Linus from this point onward.

06:31:34.700 --> 06:31:39.260
Also, I think what Spirit does is really cool here, because they have the flex on the Sardar, right, between the mid and the offlane.

06:31:39.260 --> 06:31:43.500
But because they already see the mid laner, they know that they guarantee you have one good lane for the Sardar.

06:31:43.500 --> 06:31:47.020
Even if there comes the hardest counter pick of all time on the safe lane,

06:31:47.020 --> 06:31:52.300
you guarantee you can put the Sardar in a nice position, but they could still put it on the offlane if you don't address it.

06:31:52.300 --> 06:31:58.220
So now Vision has to address the Sardar and the offlane, so that, or you're going to just end up playing in the mid.

06:31:58.220 --> 06:32:00.920
It's a really cool job here from Spirit. I love what they're doing.

06:32:00.920 --> 06:32:06.220
Do you think Enchantress is enough versus an offline Slaughter because you can just spell Sprint and maybe go for the Kill Combo?

06:32:06.220 --> 06:32:11.520
I think it's a decent hero, but the thing with Enchantress is she doesn't really do anything except auto-attack.

06:32:11.520 --> 06:32:14.620
Slaughter has really high armor, so he tanks that pretty decent.

06:32:15.620 --> 06:32:19.120
It's also kind of a cool situation in that vision.

06:32:19.120 --> 06:32:22.120
Whenever you see Slaughter SF, you want to pick the high armor carries.

06:32:22.120 --> 06:32:23.420
You want Phantom Lance or Terror Blade.

06:32:23.420 --> 06:32:25.720
You want Illusion Bros that can outscale the Shadowfiend,

06:32:25.720 --> 06:32:34.280
But it's tricky to actually pick it on 16-17 on the Underlord Rubik's Pots because you're going to get counterpicked by the Offland because of that slaughter flex.

06:32:34.280 --> 06:32:41.860
And so because he can go on either lane, if you pick that carry there, well, suddenly a bunch of magic damage is getting slapped down right after, and you don't have as good of a matchup anymore.

06:32:41.860 --> 06:32:46.060
And so as it goes to the last pick, they have the option to ban the Terror Blades and the Phantom Lancers.

06:32:46.060 --> 06:32:51.720
These heroes that counter the Shadow Fiend, which sort of goes more into just a very nice order of things from Spirit.

06:32:55.720 --> 06:33:01.400
We're going to be waiting not too much longer for what Spirit are deciding for themselves

06:33:01.400 --> 06:33:02.400
and is that Undying?

06:33:02.400 --> 06:33:06.280
And again it still keeps a lot of things open for themselves because we know how strong

06:33:06.280 --> 06:33:11.000
of a lane an SF and Undying can be together, but we also just saw in game number one collapse

06:33:11.000 --> 06:33:13.840
won't shy away from picking up that Undying too.

06:33:13.840 --> 06:33:16.080
Yeah, there's absolutely the potential for co-ops to play it.

06:33:16.080 --> 06:33:20.120
I mean we touched upon it earlier in the tournament, but this Undying has some purpose from

06:33:20.120 --> 06:33:23.800
playing as Earth Spirit where if Earth Spirit rolls in and nowadays Earth Spirit

06:33:23.800 --> 06:33:26.860
tend to have a very low level roll, max out the other two spells.

06:33:26.860 --> 06:33:30.760
A Nine can slow you, drop a Tombstone, and you just can't get out of that fight.

06:33:30.760 --> 06:33:32.820
And all the Spirit Heroes, they love to kite.

06:33:32.820 --> 06:33:33.820
You don't like getting slow.

06:33:33.820 --> 06:33:35.820
They don't like being rooted down into one place.

06:33:35.820 --> 06:33:36.820
Yeah.

06:33:36.820 --> 06:33:40.340
And these are two of some of the highest strength gain Heroes in Dota, in Earth Spirit

06:33:40.340 --> 06:33:41.340
and Underlord.

06:33:41.340 --> 06:33:45.460
And an Offline in Dying is a very strong counter pick, as he scales.

06:33:45.460 --> 06:33:46.460
Yeah.

06:33:46.460 --> 06:33:50.020
Keeping the Flanks, Flags potential open, it's very, very nice.

06:33:50.020 --> 06:33:53.000
And Mira mentioned it earlier, but Earth Spirit rolling in,

06:33:53.000 --> 06:33:55.400
Spirit loves to conceptually counter pick you.

06:33:55.400 --> 06:33:57.000
Well, now you want to roll on the shadow of him,

06:33:57.000 --> 06:33:58.200
well, you're going to get amplified,

06:33:58.200 --> 06:33:59.860
Derg's dying is going to hit you,

06:33:59.860 --> 06:34:01.700
and now you're going to get completely exploded

06:34:01.700 --> 06:34:03.700
by the physical damage, and so they've turned

06:34:03.700 --> 06:34:06.100
what you thought was a counter, back to countering yourself.

06:34:06.100 --> 06:34:07.880
And they're flipping that script

06:34:07.880 --> 06:34:10.340
and changing the way the matchup dynamics work

06:34:10.340 --> 06:34:12.380
and proving that matchups are not one-dimensional.

06:34:12.380 --> 06:34:14.340
They're based on all the other heroes at play.

06:34:14.340 --> 06:34:17.280
It's such a cool concept.

06:34:17.280 --> 06:34:19.080
Yeah, I mean, this is what Spirit does, right?

06:34:19.080 --> 06:34:23.900
They always look at how to conceptually be what you're doing. They also take out the TV. It's a great matchup against yes

06:34:23.900 --> 06:34:28.420
We saw them run this exact same matchup earlier today. So I'd like to position that they're in

06:34:28.420 --> 06:34:32.480
I feel like when I think of Earth Spirit and how he deals damage. It's by being tanky

06:34:32.480 --> 06:34:35.440
It's by staying alive letting that magnetize run it takes time

06:34:35.440 --> 06:34:41.820
But when you don't have time to do that something this hero isn't that super high magic damage hero that we've seen throughout the rest of the tournament

06:34:41.820 --> 06:34:49.300
What's another carry that spirit might be looking at taking out then that also fits a similar sort of play style or

06:34:49.500 --> 06:34:53.700
Item timing that TV does I mean you're looking for something with a lot of armor

06:34:53.700 --> 06:35:00.240
You want heroes that naturally by agility or by ACs by like something that has a lot of natural armor

06:35:01.340 --> 06:35:06.780
Yeah, we saw the Luna from Yennex earlier here yesterday, and I think that could definitely be something they look towards

06:35:06.780 --> 06:35:13.460
It's it's some here like that. It's a traditional agile carry that I mean I love that for them provision now that they get

06:35:13.860 --> 06:35:16.820
Titanic to play what he wants to play he gets to play the heroes

06:35:16.820 --> 06:35:20.300
He's practiced for his entire career the anime protagonist hero

06:35:20.300 --> 06:35:25.940
That's what's a Tanaq is best at and if they've set him up for that compared to last game where he's playing the complete opposite

06:35:25.940 --> 06:35:29.260
A lot of his go-to's are kind of uncomfortable in this position though

06:35:29.260 --> 06:35:32.920
I mean, I think the only one that looks decent is the tumblr is awesome

06:35:32.920 --> 06:35:35.580
But we did say we did see her lose to slaughter yesterday

06:35:36.780 --> 06:35:41.040
yeah I mean the tiny bound I think makes a lot of sense right it's just his

06:35:41.040 --> 06:35:45.620
ultimate gives him straight armor it it's a tricky position to be a carrier I

06:35:45.620 --> 06:35:50.420
think I'm trying to think of good options to be honest the TA I personally only

06:35:50.420 --> 06:35:53.340
really liked it when we saw it against the centaur the other day it was like it

06:35:53.340 --> 06:35:56.460
had clear purpose it's gonna destroy its lane it's gonna abuse the minus

06:35:56.460 --> 06:36:01.260
armor here against Florida potentially I feel like that is a draw-ish lane it's

06:36:01.260 --> 06:36:02.920
It's not like a super dominant one.

06:36:06.420 --> 06:36:09.720
See the full lane now, have a little bit more information.

06:36:09.720 --> 06:36:12.200
It's a strong lane, it's not a lane that's easy

06:36:12.200 --> 06:36:14.580
to pick super hard carries into,

06:36:14.580 --> 06:36:16.900
and I think that may be a little bit of sort of a pre-countering.

06:36:16.900 --> 06:36:17.940
We're picking the axe heroes,

06:36:17.940 --> 06:36:19.400
gonna blink blade and they'll call you.

06:36:19.400 --> 06:36:21.400
So if you pick these traditional agile heroes

06:36:21.400 --> 06:36:23.100
that are low HP, high armor wall,

06:36:23.100 --> 06:36:24.520
the axe is gonna be super good against that.

06:36:24.520 --> 06:36:26.100
So it's a nice sort of preemptive.

06:36:26.100 --> 06:36:27.200
We know what you want,

06:36:27.200 --> 06:36:28.820
and we're gonna make that a little bit more uncomfortable

06:36:28.820 --> 06:36:29.660
for you.

06:36:29.660 --> 06:36:35.660
And things like life stealer get solved by the slaughter that came early in Spiritstaff, and Mapochka is kind of cooking today.

06:36:35.660 --> 06:36:43.660
Yep, and like any sort of TA routes against Axe are super scary, because you won't shut yourself from that blade mail, so they deny that potential too.

06:36:43.660 --> 06:36:50.660
I think you can choose to just play Temple on vision instead if you feel that you may fall trapped till lane counters or matchup counters,

06:36:50.660 --> 06:36:55.660
because you still do have the Temple of Earth Spirit. You have this Enchantress that's going to be running around taking towers.

06:36:55.660 --> 06:37:00.540
You have the Underlord who can connect on any kind of plays you make. Maybe go for a Luna.

06:37:00.540 --> 06:37:05.620
I mean to be honest I like Luna. I was thinking about Lone Druid for a bit and then I looked at Spirits heroes and I'm like

06:37:05.620 --> 06:37:11.080
Okay, absolutely do not pick Lone Druid into this because there's so many ways to be able to spare.

06:37:11.080 --> 06:37:15.040
The bear won't be tanky and to be honest I like the Luna. While some pulled it off

06:37:15.040 --> 06:37:18.220
They look pretty good and it buys the right items. It has a lot of armor

06:37:18.220 --> 06:37:22.020
It even has damage reduction that it provides for itself. So it's a pretty cool pick here

06:37:22.020 --> 06:37:26.860
Yeah, you want some you want to build the damage to you've got a lot of guys who sit behind you your tanky

06:37:27.620 --> 06:37:29.540
this is

06:37:29.540 --> 06:37:31.140
risky

06:37:31.140 --> 06:37:37.340
Historically lifestealer is pretty bad against slaughter because when you press rage then he amplify damages you and try to bean shreds you

06:37:37.340 --> 06:37:40.180
You need to run into the fight and while it does have a good lane

06:37:40.180 --> 06:37:43.860
I think and to get ahead of early you need to be quite farmed so you can actually get to the manta

06:37:43.860 --> 06:37:47.540
Get to the AC eventually and then the matchups can turn a little yeah

06:37:47.540 --> 06:37:51.540
And we've mentioned how this Earth Spirit needs to stay alive in order to be able to deal with damage.

06:37:51.540 --> 06:37:55.540
Life Stealer is one of the few carries that can actually amplify his mid hero in that way.

06:37:55.540 --> 06:38:01.540
So I think Vision are trying to then once again answer concepts, not focusing so much on individual hero matchups,

06:38:01.540 --> 06:38:04.540
but try to look at what does our drafts actually need to be able to win this game.

06:38:04.540 --> 06:38:07.540
We need to keep our Earth Spirit alive, we need to get value out of Magnetize,

06:38:07.540 --> 06:38:10.540
and we need to make sure that Satanic is on a good lane and he's playing the game from ahead.

06:38:10.540 --> 06:38:16.540
In situations like this, this is where I look towards Enchantress as the X-Factor hero,

06:38:16.540 --> 06:38:22.140
You need to win your early game. This is where the callus needs to put it upon himself to take the towers to rotate to go

06:38:22.140 --> 06:38:26.640
To that mid lane do a couple of smokes try to win as many lanes as possible go through the gate

06:38:26.940 --> 06:38:28.620
It's a collapse

06:38:28.620 --> 06:38:32.220
Undying by the way, which does mean our axis position five

06:38:32.900 --> 06:38:37.700
Okay, so they flip the script that is it's so it's so on the fly

06:38:37.700 --> 06:38:39.780
And I think it's really awesome from Rue

06:38:39.780 --> 06:38:44.580
But I wonder if he'll be able to pull off not because I don't think he's capable because acts five is just not particularly

06:38:44.580 --> 06:38:48.020
particularly good generally, and you're saying, Ru, you're going to have a much worse game,

06:38:48.020 --> 06:38:51.180
and Colossus is going to have a better game. They're trading. One of them has worse, and

06:38:51.180 --> 06:38:52.180
now the other one has better.

06:38:52.180 --> 06:38:55.860
Yeah, so forget what I said about Satanic having a good lane, right? They're deciding

06:38:55.860 --> 06:38:59.420
like, we're not going to let that happen. And Spirit are prioritizing the things that

06:38:59.420 --> 06:39:02.580
they think are more important, right? They think Satanic being shut down is

06:39:02.580 --> 06:39:06.440
more important than Ru having the best lane possible or like the most comfortable

06:39:06.440 --> 06:39:08.780
hero possible. So they just believe in a skill.

06:39:08.780 --> 06:39:13.300
What about it makes it so that a life stealer is having a more difficult lane?

06:39:13.300 --> 06:39:17.200
I mean to be honest you're just getting decayed your strength hero and so every time he presses his first file

06:39:17.200 --> 06:39:21.460
You're losing for damage you're losing for damage and that just keeps happening and you're getting out traded

06:39:21.460 --> 06:39:25.500
And it's it's an eight damage differential swing right on dying is getting four and you're losing four

06:39:25.500 --> 06:39:29.460
And so you keep getting out CS and that keeps mounting over time and it becomes a big problem

06:39:29.660 --> 06:39:34.860
Theory the losing the damage you're getting pushed out of lane is essentially how we are going to see satanic play this yeah

06:39:34.860 --> 06:39:35.960
Pick your poison

06:39:35.960 --> 06:39:37.960
You're just gonna get outlasted

06:39:37.960 --> 06:39:44.440
I do want to comment that the 5 Axe I think will have a good lane too because really Underlord aren't going to bother him so much

06:39:44.440 --> 06:39:48.960
He's just going to press Thought-O-Hunger as he's going to press Races. It's not that difficult of a swing either

06:39:49.600 --> 06:39:53.000
Yeah, I mean the lane is really strong and I think that's where he's going to be comfortable

06:39:53.000 --> 06:39:55.120
The question more comes in like in the mid game

06:39:55.120 --> 06:39:57.240
He's been crucial in making moves, right?

06:39:57.240 --> 06:39:59.200
Does he know how to find those options with Axe?

06:39:59.200 --> 06:40:02.400
There's sometimes seeing those things can be tricky if you're not really comfortable on a hero

06:40:02.560 --> 06:40:05.040
But to be honest, I think from Spears' perspective

06:40:05.040 --> 06:40:10.160
This kind of switch it shows that they're like really thinking about the game and it's really impressive to see them do it

06:40:10.160 --> 06:40:15.200
Well, we've loved getting to see that little switcher right at the end there seeing the axe going to position five

06:40:15.200 --> 06:40:18.680
Let's get a couple more details about it because you know me as the poshka standing by

06:40:19.640 --> 06:40:27.320
That's exactly what was on my mind. Miposhka seems like quite the last second pivot support axe. What was the idea?

06:40:27.320 --> 06:40:33.320
The idea was that we picked Undyne and Axe, so we can track them between both roles.

06:40:33.320 --> 06:40:41.320
For example, they picked Axe, and we just decided that Undyne would be much better at flying off against the Steeler and the Ench.

06:40:41.320 --> 06:40:47.320
But Axe is still just under, so the thing is, anyway, he will be useful.

06:40:47.320 --> 06:40:55.320
Anyway, he will buy, he will get his Brink, anyway, he will stun the Heroes, I mean, Agar, and he will do his impact anyway.

06:40:55.320 --> 06:40:57.820
But the neck will just heal them later.

06:40:57.820 --> 06:41:00.820
So you definitely planned this out quite a bit, and I'm wondering,

06:41:00.820 --> 06:41:04.320
you are now on a seven-game win streak right now at TI.

06:41:04.320 --> 06:41:06.820
Obviously from players, I hear what a hot streak feels like.

06:41:06.820 --> 06:41:08.320
You know, your clicks feel better.

06:41:08.320 --> 06:41:09.820
You always know where the enemy is.

06:41:09.820 --> 06:41:14.820
But as a drafter, do you also feel like, oh man, I feel hot right now?

06:41:17.320 --> 06:41:19.820
Maybe in that grand final, I would say yes,

06:41:19.820 --> 06:41:27.340
Because I feel like also support from my players, like they believe in my ideas sometimes, like they trust me.

06:41:27.340 --> 06:41:32.860
For example, we let her spirit in us, but we choose to pick other things that was my idea

06:41:32.860 --> 06:41:42.060
and just wants to play very tempo and just kill them until he gets his act, for example.

06:41:42.060 --> 06:41:47.900
Because we can see how he'll go, but they believe in me, I believe in my teammates.

06:41:47.900 --> 06:41:51.340
Did you just, uh, cast the very good synergy?

06:41:51.340 --> 06:41:51.840
No.

06:41:51.840 --> 06:41:53.800
And the harmony is working out great, Maposhka.

06:41:53.800 --> 06:41:57.300
Good luck in game number two as we send it to our casters.

06:41:57.300 --> 06:41:58.740
Game two, some ladies and gentlemen

06:41:58.740 --> 06:42:01.100
here between Team Vision and Team Spirit.

06:42:01.100 --> 06:42:02.380
Before we get into breaking down

06:42:02.380 --> 06:42:03.980
what's going on and what we're going to see,

06:42:03.980 --> 06:42:06.020
I believe we actually have some quick words from no one

06:42:06.020 --> 06:42:06.620
in the booth.

06:42:06.620 --> 06:42:08.020
Let's see what he had to say.

06:42:08.020 --> 06:42:08.520
Beep.

06:42:08.520 --> 06:42:09.020
Beep.

06:42:09.020 --> 06:42:09.520
Beep.

06:42:09.520 --> 06:42:10.020
Beep.

06:42:10.020 --> 06:42:10.520
Beep.

06:42:10.520 --> 06:42:11.020
Beep.

06:42:11.020 --> 06:42:11.520
Beep.

06:42:11.520 --> 06:42:12.020
Beep.

06:42:12.020 --> 06:42:12.520
Beep.

06:42:12.520 --> 06:42:13.020
Beep.

06:42:13.020 --> 06:42:13.520
Beep.

06:42:13.520 --> 06:42:14.020
Beep.

06:42:14.020 --> 06:42:14.520
Beep.

06:42:14.520 --> 06:42:15.020
Beep.

06:42:15.020 --> 06:42:15.520
Beep.

06:42:15.520 --> 06:42:16.020
Beep.

06:42:16.020 --> 06:42:16.520
Beep.

06:42:16.520 --> 06:42:17.020
Beep.

06:42:17.020 --> 06:42:17.520
Beep.

06:42:17.520 --> 06:42:23.360
There we go. Good luck indeed. I mean as we saw you know they know themselves right team vision and according to puppy

06:42:23.360 --> 06:42:28.800
This is where you got to try the different stuff team vision tried the different stopping game one didn't want to hope for them

06:42:28.840 --> 06:42:33.560
So indeed no one's like well spirit. You could try something a bit different put him real on this position five

06:42:33.560 --> 06:42:34.920
Let's see if it works for you

06:42:34.920 --> 06:42:38.560
I mean spirit tried something different last game to the disruptor and it was

06:42:39.480 --> 06:42:44.320
I was shocked that it's the first disruptor when we did see it start playing out versus amber versus IO

06:42:44.320 --> 06:42:50.280
It did seem like yeah, that's maybe that's what it was like. I just replace them a different every game could be the case

06:42:50.280 --> 06:42:53.880
I understand that you know this pivot very very appropriate in the game

06:42:53.880 --> 06:42:57.680
They saw how good of a game collapse also had on that last one as soon as they see that life stealer pick

06:42:57.680 --> 06:43:04.320
It can be annoying for satanic. You're already starting to see that damage differential life stealers damage early isn't really so high in particular

06:43:04.320 --> 06:43:07.720
Just because you have very good attack speed that builds in that you can't get these extra last hits

06:43:07.880 --> 06:43:10.040
But yeah, you're just gonna constantly get the case fam

06:43:10.040 --> 06:43:13.640
You're gonna get hit also from the hood week can be a bit annoying in the laning phase

06:43:13.640 --> 06:43:18.200
So from what I see from Spirit is they're really looking to dominate these lanes, but I think overall

06:43:18.560 --> 06:43:24.440
Vision's approach is much better this game. Oh, then game one. Infinite. No doubt about it. This game

06:43:24.440 --> 06:43:26.880
We should get to see some back and forth. Oh, yeah

06:43:26.880 --> 06:43:30.400
Should get to see Satanic be much more in his element

06:43:30.400 --> 06:43:36.720
Sure, as you say and as we open the panel there are many ways that the life stealer can be pressured and can suffer in this game

06:43:36.880 --> 06:43:40.120
But he's not a carrier satanic on the life stealer

06:43:40.120 --> 06:43:43.840
It's gonna be super comfortable and even if they do bring in this challenge

06:43:43.840 --> 06:43:49.380
He's gonna be able to rise up and meet it when he's on something like the life stealer exact and the axe pivot right to talk about it

06:43:49.380 --> 06:43:56.120
I'm Mira mentioned it there this axe lane playing versus rubik you can trade pretty decently rubik doesn't really have that highest damage in

06:43:56.120 --> 06:44:01.440
particular in the laning phase you get hungered axe has crazy high HP regen decent armoured and trade with you so you

06:44:01.440 --> 06:44:07.840
Can be that protective force for a shadow feed and you provide the catch later on that the team is gonna watch a BKB piercing disabled

06:44:07.840 --> 06:44:11.800
They have multiple of them to deal with the life stealer ready. We see nine class starting to pull some waves

06:44:11.800 --> 06:44:16.920
We play versus shadow beam with underlord. It's a very difficult lane to be able to pressure your Torah mid lane

06:44:17.320 --> 06:44:19.560
Pretty even so far in fact dead even

06:44:20.200 --> 06:44:23.880
Well, let's see how satanic deals with when the levels start coming out down here

06:44:23.880 --> 06:44:28.480
Because this does not feel like an easy lane for him to just really last it can potential just get first

06:44:29.040 --> 06:44:34.920
Especially not when collapse is gonna absolutely be in the zone after his game one undying performance

06:44:34.920 --> 06:44:38.640
And I love that he did this. It's a it's a usual thing we see on the hoodwinks

06:44:38.640 --> 06:44:41.240
But some players that straight away from it lately. It's just buying a blight stone

06:44:41.520 --> 06:44:46.920
I mean orbit lights are in front of a chance, but it's very strong. This is something like life-sealer. You're very low armor

06:44:46.920 --> 06:44:49.960
It's very annoying to deal with this constant harassment and collapse the damage is high

06:44:49.960 --> 06:44:54.280
If you get a couple right click to the blight stone, it's gonna be crazy how much he actually deals to business

06:44:54.280 --> 06:44:58.760
No, I actually got easy to say counting to step up to the creep way meets and every time he's having to use this raise

06:44:58.760 --> 06:45:01.840
To just not get caught by these bush wax from not me

06:45:01.840 --> 06:45:06.740
So it could be that case. Well sure it's not a side lane ember when he's just struggling to get that full recovery

06:45:06.740 --> 06:45:11.400
But it's gonna be a Toro with absolute free farm to a bit of a slow down satanic again

06:45:12.320 --> 06:45:16.620
Trying to prevent a dive here with the tombstone satanic will turn to try and take it out

06:45:16.620 --> 06:45:20.120
But a little bit of solar peel comes out at the tombstone and satanic

06:45:24.260 --> 06:45:28.640
It's a big creep wave though punishing collapse with it. It's not easy on too many creeps

06:45:28.640 --> 06:45:33.120
You can easily walk this one off. I mean already showing that with this aggression spirit

06:45:33.120 --> 06:45:35.040
They're ready to punish satanic early

06:45:35.040 --> 06:45:38.980
They don't want him to have a free game at all and talking about the life stealer as well too

06:45:38.980 --> 06:45:43.540
They went for this last pick but by no means is this a free life stealer game by any means right?

06:45:43.540 --> 06:45:48.120
They're playing into the corrosive haze from the slaughter the minus armor that comes up from the shadow theme the axe

06:45:48.120 --> 06:45:53.280
That has the call versus it and a difficult lane as we're seeing so already see the approach from spirit to shut things down

06:45:53.280 --> 06:45:57.900
No one though he's gonna be that one to watch his earth spirit has been phenomenal in these games

06:45:58.400 --> 06:46:03.320
Absolutely can punish these side lanes if he's off to a good start and he is off to the start until counter pick matchup

06:46:04.240 --> 06:46:11.500
He's got to be careful. He tried to start right from the side here, but collapsing on me just turned towards him. He's dead blood grenades on him

06:46:13.080 --> 06:46:16.480
Actually, okay, not me should have kept the connection. They should get him with a decay

06:46:16.480 --> 06:46:19.240
They do so another kill here for the fuel off lane

06:46:19.240 --> 06:46:23.640
on team spirit these two are owning they're not being so many of these games

06:46:23.640 --> 06:46:28.080
which is incredible for this team for the newer pickups now

06:46:28.080 --> 06:46:33.000
they've been on the edge there here against no one will have to step back

06:46:33.000 --> 06:46:36.200
here once you've got the South Bruce coming in with a rotation oh this is

06:46:36.200 --> 06:46:39.040
clever I mean the battle hunger slow things down they've been able to prime

06:46:39.040 --> 06:46:43.160
the bash into the crush that'll do it they bring down no one in the rotation

06:46:43.160 --> 06:46:46.360
I'm also gonna try and turn up and get for a return the calls gonna fire

06:46:46.360 --> 06:46:55.000
They have a bit of extra safety going on up to survive the tower, but that's to maybe just set up the lull to get a second kill here in the middle of the same time down the corner.

06:46:55.000 --> 06:46:57.000
They've just killed St. Tannick again!

06:46:57.000 --> 06:47:02.200
They're breaking the game all and the movement that they're doing is forcing these reactions from vision that they're not used to having to do.

06:47:02.200 --> 06:47:06.000
They probably want to have their usual gameplay where they're like, okay Enchantress is able to get a creep.

06:47:06.000 --> 06:47:10.200
I'm able to swing toward the mid lane, play around this timing. This is so fast you're scurrying.

06:47:10.200 --> 06:47:12.680
So early and of course top lane, yetoro.

06:47:12.680 --> 06:47:13.680
Re-farm.

06:47:13.680 --> 06:47:15.080
It's happening again for him.

06:47:15.080 --> 06:47:15.580
It is.

06:47:15.580 --> 06:47:27.100
And in a situation where this came out very early in the draft fold, the question is, did vision, can you see at least what vision did try and do to adapt and say, hey, we cannot let the SF, Yatoro, get as free as a game as he did in game one?

06:47:27.100 --> 06:47:28.820
Like, do you see an idea here?

06:47:28.820 --> 06:47:30.900
I see them having damage mitigation at the least, right?

06:47:30.900 --> 06:47:43.140
The Underlord plus the Rubik, just the Fade Fall, plus the Atrophy aura that comes into play in mid-game teamfights, can be very strong, and they have a gap closer that comes in from the Earth Spirit, but if he falls too far behind this Earth Spirit panel was talking about it too.

06:47:43.140 --> 06:47:47.960
If he rolls in, you're going to have level 1 roll very early into undying SF Slaughter and stunts.

06:47:47.960 --> 06:47:51.300
It's not an easy game for him to just roll in and get out if he does get committed in.

06:47:52.660 --> 06:47:53.300
Max call.

06:47:54.140 --> 06:47:55.500
All people to bring down noticed.

06:47:55.740 --> 06:47:57.740
Falling in the way from the wave.

06:47:58.260 --> 06:48:03.100
Making sure that Yatoro continues to get all the space in the world in his safe lane.

06:48:04.900 --> 06:48:06.400
Amazing stunts that they're having here.

06:48:08.100 --> 06:48:09.340
He collapse at this point.

06:48:09.340 --> 06:48:11.180
It's done to that 7 minute mark too.

06:48:11.180 --> 06:48:16.380
So even if he does die down here, he will be able to respawn instantly and continue that pressure onto Zotanic as well.

06:48:16.380 --> 06:48:19.080
And they'll have to bring a lot of resources to kill him too, even if they want to.

06:48:20.480 --> 06:48:24.580
Trying to poke onto Collapsus, they have the creep from the Enchantress, but he's still healthy.

06:48:26.080 --> 06:48:27.980
Zotanic's damage just continues to get limited.

06:48:27.980 --> 06:48:30.680
Every single time these decays come out, minus 8 this time.

06:48:31.580 --> 06:48:35.280
Yatoro, with the similar rotation that he did in the last game, they are reading it.

06:48:35.280 --> 06:48:40.680
They do get the scan, Spirit bringing even more reinforcements to potentially look for a tower push here,

06:48:40.680 --> 06:48:42.680
and 4 satanic jungle.

06:48:43.960 --> 06:48:47.240
I'm not gonna wanna step anywhere near the lane whilst he's aware that this

06:48:47.880 --> 06:48:51.000
lane was looked towards. Spirit know that they know though and will

06:48:51.800 --> 06:48:56.120
return you to our back up to the top lane. The nice thing I will say first satanic in this game though

06:48:56.200 --> 06:49:01.000
Even before he has radiance. He kind of can't turn up sure not in like a very aggressive way

06:49:01.000 --> 06:49:03.960
But play leads to this and fast to protect his earth spirit

06:49:04.120 --> 06:49:08.280
Could be the small move that they could look for if they start to fall behind. Then Laurel

06:49:08.280 --> 06:49:09.880
Lost his vision on the rotation.

06:49:09.880 --> 06:49:11.380
TP's coming in as well from Spirit.

06:49:11.380 --> 06:49:13.580
No one trying to stand his ground out with the Magna type damage.

06:49:13.580 --> 06:49:14.980
But backup's coming in. No one's...

06:49:14.980 --> 06:49:15.480
He's there!

06:49:15.480 --> 06:49:17.980
Loads and kills off! Loads should die!

06:49:17.980 --> 06:49:18.980
And that's it there!

06:49:18.980 --> 06:49:20.780
One of the two of them coming in collapsed.

06:49:20.780 --> 06:49:22.980
Tarzan takes out nine cards.

06:49:22.980 --> 06:49:24.380
He's in that corner back off.

06:49:24.380 --> 06:49:26.180
The Tombstone's down. They can't handle it.

06:49:27.380 --> 06:49:29.280
Something I didn't really look at either about the game is,

06:49:29.280 --> 06:49:31.880
they don't really have the best ways to hit this Tombstone.

06:49:31.880 --> 06:49:33.980
Life Stealer doesn't want to rage and commit for it.

06:49:33.980 --> 06:49:35.480
There's double supports that are ranged,

06:49:35.480 --> 06:49:37.880
but not the greatest ones to be able to go for it here.

06:49:37.880 --> 06:49:41.560
to pause, he'll be able to finish it up here at the least if that plus 125.

06:49:43.160 --> 06:49:47.960
But collapsed, in spirit you can see the way they're playing, very active on the map, looking to respond to the moves.

06:49:48.680 --> 06:49:50.520
Top, they're going to be a tour.

06:49:50.520 --> 06:49:55.480
Connected, he's got back up from not made, just went there, onto no one, not made.

06:49:56.040 --> 06:49:59.480
They need to set up onto him, heavy damage, heavily acorn shot, he's dead!

06:49:59.480 --> 06:50:00.520
The amplify, what the-

06:50:00.520 --> 06:50:03.320
That is a very, very painful death for no one.

06:50:03.320 --> 06:50:09.320
Turning up to the top, immediately getting destroyed on top of notice, getting dove taken out.

06:50:09.320 --> 06:50:14.320
These are so, so painful. These early deaths here on these cause fogged.

06:50:14.320 --> 06:50:19.320
Not me is owning. Look at the damage from the acorn shot with the orb of light with the amplify.

06:50:19.320 --> 06:50:23.320
Earth Spirit just comes in and dies immediately put at negative armor.

06:50:23.320 --> 06:50:30.320
These are incredible moves to Earth Spirit and teams have talked about the best way to deal with Earth Spirit currently in this meta is shut down as early game.

06:50:30.320 --> 06:50:32.020
The hero has a lot about that momentum.

06:50:32.020 --> 06:50:37.420
Yes, he has absurd scaling, but if you slow down the vessel timing, this hero can fall off pretty quickly.

06:50:38.020 --> 06:50:41.220
With how much damage he can put out versus these tanky heroes too, which they do have.

06:50:41.220 --> 06:50:43.920
They have a Slardar, they have the Undying, Laurel.

06:50:44.720 --> 06:50:45.920
Having a hell of a game this time.

06:50:45.920 --> 06:50:50.120
Last game, he did struggle a little bit in the mid-game on the Slark, although his team was owning.

06:50:50.120 --> 06:50:53.820
This one, Laurel, is performing incredible here versus that Earth Fairy.

06:50:55.720 --> 06:50:57.620
3K lead at first 10 minutes.

06:50:57.620 --> 06:51:00.620
They've got their work cut out for them yet again here, Vision.

06:51:00.620 --> 06:51:01.620
And Laurel.

06:51:01.620 --> 06:51:03.620
All uneasy spots to play from here.

06:51:03.620 --> 06:51:07.620
And overall, Laurel, the captain keep mentioning the type of game for this Slaughter.

06:51:07.620 --> 06:51:11.620
The fact that he's having such a good opener, he's very good versus all three of these cores.

06:51:11.620 --> 06:51:13.620
Underlord, it goes a bit of both ways.

06:51:13.620 --> 06:51:17.620
It's not good to pit and the firestorm is, but perhaps...

06:51:17.620 --> 06:51:19.620
Remember the bloody bloke, Sons of DeKalis?

06:51:19.620 --> 06:51:20.620
He's getting slowed down here.

06:51:20.620 --> 06:51:23.620
I'm buying time for Laurel to close in, DeKalis, he's gone.

06:51:23.620 --> 06:51:27.460
No one come up the cap to play will be a roll for get the Sun and sit on to collapse

06:51:27.460 --> 06:51:31.860
So he left here with sorry doesn't matter. They'll still kill him. They ditch him completely

06:51:31.860 --> 06:51:36.300
They don't lose anybody else any back to life. She's the surge immediately is gonna be able to rejoin the phrase

06:51:36.300 --> 06:51:40.660
So they cut their losses instantly and now potentially gonna go for another reroof here

06:51:41.220 --> 06:51:45.540
Not me and rude. I'm gonna prepare for no one returns in the mid as an innovation not me

06:51:46.500 --> 06:51:48.980
No one's not careful here. He could get caught

06:51:48.980 --> 06:51:54.900
I'm gonna see the callers come in just so that there is some sort of back-up to know what these levels on the supports of spirit

06:51:54.900 --> 06:51:56.900
They're both level six already

06:51:59.180 --> 06:52:05.840
High burst potential here so much damage amplification the Slardar the undying as we're seeing come into play

06:52:05.840 --> 06:52:07.840
They have to be very careful how they set up for these moves

06:52:08.900 --> 06:52:13.780
Night class, let's see what he's able to steal. That's a really good one. It's gonna be able to find the crush

06:52:13.780 --> 06:52:17.220
I just don't want to fully come out on Zalal. No, not just yet.

06:52:17.220 --> 06:52:19.780
Not me still getting some pretty valuable information.

06:52:19.780 --> 06:52:22.980
This is reminiscent of the last game, Yatoro, in the enemy triangle.

06:52:22.980 --> 06:52:25.380
Farming ancients already at this point, life-sealer,

06:52:25.380 --> 06:52:28.020
not in a position to be able to do anything like that.

06:52:28.020 --> 06:52:30.020
But the important thing for Satanic is though,

06:52:30.020 --> 06:52:32.020
he hasn't been pushed out of his lane at least.

06:52:32.020 --> 06:52:34.020
He's in force to just jungle right now.

06:52:34.020 --> 06:52:35.380
He's top three net worth.

06:52:35.380 --> 06:52:37.780
Last game, he was already by far the bottom of the course,

06:52:37.780 --> 06:52:40.180
so a much better start for him, all things considered.

06:52:40.180 --> 06:52:45.180
I don't know his name has much greater chance to carry this time, no one.

06:52:46.180 --> 06:52:47.180
Not me.

06:52:47.180 --> 06:52:49.180
I tried to make a bit of a go for this.

06:52:49.180 --> 06:52:50.180
Oop, D&E.

06:52:50.180 --> 06:52:52.180
He's going down surely from down to the college.

06:52:52.180 --> 06:52:53.180
We'll take him out.

06:52:53.180 --> 06:52:56.180
So, tried to go for a bit of a cheeky move there against no one.

06:52:56.180 --> 06:53:00.180
Does not have enough burst on his own to take out the Esper.

06:53:00.180 --> 06:53:02.180
Tried for a solo kill there onto him, so not me.

06:53:02.180 --> 06:53:03.180
Good himself.

06:53:05.180 --> 06:53:07.180
Super deep aggressive words as we do see.

06:53:07.180 --> 06:53:08.180
Not me, I think both of them.

06:53:08.180 --> 06:53:13.100
Both of them, Aru was placing one of them around the triangle, secondary one as we do see there, placed from Naught Me.

06:53:13.100 --> 06:53:16.340
So they're gonna get a lot of read of movement to where the Earth Spirit is going.

06:53:16.340 --> 06:53:18.340
So we'll see if no one can get the next connections.

06:53:19.340 --> 06:53:21.340
Carl, Blink already finished up.

06:53:22.540 --> 06:53:25.940
Very early timing. Treads soldering, Blink from the mid lane already.

06:53:25.940 --> 06:53:29.940
Science half-down towards the bottom lane. Naught Me's from the cat for the bush back on the 9th class.

06:53:29.940 --> 06:53:32.940
Crociapains is there. The right clicks come through into the crush.

06:53:33.820 --> 06:53:35.340
There's no balling right now.

06:53:35.340 --> 06:53:39.740
With this blink dagger also vision has to be very prepared how they bring the numbers

06:53:39.820 --> 06:53:43.100
They have good ways to bring numbers though with the earth spirit with that underlord

06:53:43.100 --> 06:53:48.220
They can look to match it but have to be careful how many kills they hemorrhage versus this Laurel blink at this point

06:53:48.220 --> 06:53:50.220
It's so fast that he's been able to find it

06:53:51.460 --> 06:53:55.340
Brew now at this point also he's playing the 5x he got away with it completely

06:53:55.820 --> 06:54:01.020
Now able to just sit back get some jungle creeps to got a build toward that blink dagger and your Toro now

06:54:01.020 --> 06:54:03.020
They're looking to push satanic off of that lane

06:54:05.340 --> 06:54:09.120
Zatani won't have any interest in showing his face at least not until the

06:54:09.660 --> 06:54:13.700
Gradients is done. He's making decent timing on it considering everything that's going down around him

06:54:13.700 --> 06:54:15.380
They're gonna try for another move here

06:54:15.380 --> 06:54:20.300
They're attempting to get no one into something here, but he has to be careful

06:54:20.340 --> 06:54:24.020
He can't just die if he rolls in again versus all of this amplification

06:54:24.020 --> 06:54:28.020
I've already taken the tower and but it looks a bit spirit. They're already backing away

06:54:28.700 --> 06:54:34.260
With the roll forward, but they did through the gate. Well, couldn't get the courier either

06:54:34.260 --> 06:54:38.420
They're trying to get the finish off onto it just again.

06:54:38.420 --> 06:54:39.900
One step ahead, Spirit.

06:54:39.900 --> 06:54:40.940
Reading the movement.

06:54:40.940 --> 06:54:41.780
Now the career will die.

06:54:45.460 --> 06:54:47.740
No one really trying to get involved in a move,

06:54:47.740 --> 06:54:49.900
trying to get himself into a better position.

06:54:49.900 --> 06:54:51.300
This is one of the rough first starts

06:54:51.300 --> 06:54:52.700
I think we've seen for Earth, Spirit.

06:54:52.700 --> 06:54:54.380
He's falling behind them.

06:54:54.380 --> 06:54:56.300
The record's been pretty flawless so far

06:54:56.300 --> 06:54:57.420
from no one on his Earth, Spirit.

06:54:57.420 --> 06:54:58.020
It really has.

06:54:58.020 --> 06:54:59.980
This game, he's having a tough opening.

06:54:59.980 --> 06:55:01.740
There's so much ways to kill him.

06:55:01.740 --> 06:55:03.580
There's so much damage that they're building up.

06:55:03.580 --> 06:55:07.420
And again, the aggressive wards, they've put the same ward they had around the triangle before,

06:55:07.420 --> 06:55:10.180
just really limiting the moves that Vision can make.

06:55:10.180 --> 06:55:13.480
Maybe feeling the pressure, losing track of the timing, it's 14 minutes in.

06:55:13.480 --> 06:55:15.380
We're gonna see Spirit get both of those wisdoms.

06:55:15.380 --> 06:55:16.780
Oh wow, that's a big deal, Drew.

06:55:16.780 --> 06:55:18.380
He'll just walk in and sneak it.

06:55:20.780 --> 06:55:23.580
Moves aren't connecting, Spirit meeting them perfectly.

06:55:23.580 --> 06:55:26.380
Level 8 now on the supports, not me.

06:55:26.380 --> 06:55:29.380
Almost the same level as some of the cores on the side of Vision with this type of start.

06:55:33.580 --> 06:55:37.920
Collapse deviating the build this time around is going to go for the Lotus first rather than going for the Octorane

06:55:37.920 --> 06:55:41.060
Very good Lotus game when you're playing versus the magnetized versus the silence

06:55:41.060 --> 06:55:46.260
He will be able to get these saves off potentially in the same build at least in terms of skill build maxing this whole rip

06:55:46.260 --> 06:55:48.260
It's gonna have that extra sustain

06:55:48.260 --> 06:55:52.960
Probably gonna play as that semi pseudo support, but also, you know, we saw much he was able to do even with that

06:55:52.960 --> 06:55:54.960
Anyway as a carry

06:55:55.160 --> 06:56:01.340
And Yatoro's timings he is having that clear separation 2800 over satanic his Manta coming out soon

06:56:01.340 --> 06:56:03.740
but Stannick, close to the radius.

06:56:03.740 --> 06:56:05.140
He is. It's...

06:56:05.140 --> 06:56:09.140
Yeah, infinitely better game than the game on the Diambus Spirit.

06:56:09.140 --> 06:56:09.940
Still low.

06:56:09.940 --> 06:56:13.940
At least for him, but for no one if he's having a much rougher one this time around.

06:56:13.940 --> 06:56:16.740
He actually is, honestly. It even compares the IO from the game.

06:56:16.740 --> 06:56:22.540
This one's actually feeling tough over the fact that he's already died four times here on the Earth Spirit.

06:56:22.540 --> 06:56:24.740
They're seemingly having all the answers for it.

06:56:24.740 --> 06:56:26.340
Just the undying, plus the starter.

06:56:26.340 --> 06:56:29.940
I feel like such great responses versus Zero, because he goes in and just dies.

06:56:29.940 --> 06:56:31.940
So much damage, they have so much control.

06:56:31.940 --> 06:56:34.940
Tower now, can vision protect this one here?

06:56:35.940 --> 06:56:36.940
Don't think so.

06:56:39.940 --> 06:56:41.940
He'll have the Radiance.

06:56:41.940 --> 06:56:44.940
Okay, see what he can do when he turns up to fight with it.

06:56:44.940 --> 06:56:45.940
It's he being over.

06:56:47.940 --> 06:56:51.940
Maybe see if they can do something with the Radiance timing, but Spirit, they're already away.

06:56:52.940 --> 06:56:53.940
No one...

06:56:53.940 --> 06:56:57.940
Even though he died, one thing that he does gain from it, that he does get a Spirit Vessel Charge.

06:56:57.940 --> 06:57:02.760
Charged sure it's not that big of a positive, but it's something slight so they're gonna look for a move here to connect

06:57:02.760 --> 06:57:05.580
I don't think they can just let spirit do whatever they want in this game

06:57:05.580 --> 06:57:10.620
I actually see the notice even running in the smoke. He buys the shark huge if they can get your Torah

06:57:11.420 --> 06:57:13.920
Something that it took them a long time to do in game one

06:57:15.580 --> 06:57:16.940
They're just gonna be off the mark

06:57:16.940 --> 06:57:21.260
They didn't like read this position that he was in in your Torah. Look at the line found

06:57:21.260 --> 06:57:24.060
I look at the line drawn. That's your Torah reading the move

06:57:24.060 --> 06:57:27.980
He knows exactly where they are not going to get the connection. No one will at least get an arcane rune

06:57:27.980 --> 06:57:31.380
But can just continue to get slowed down not finding connections

06:57:32.020 --> 06:57:36.940
Oh and bruise about to have a black dagger on the axe and they're getting crazy farm on the support some crazy levels

06:57:38.060 --> 06:57:44.220
That makes it pretty hard for you to play this lifestealer freely can still just get caught inside of these multiple BKB peers and disables

06:57:48.340 --> 06:57:51.760
So notice we do see a lot of these underlords do this buying that sharp

06:57:51.760 --> 06:57:54.440
But I was surprised he's running in with them with the smoke in there.

06:57:54.840 --> 06:57:56.240
Well, he's got the blink up.

06:57:56.240 --> 06:57:58.040
He gets it before the blood grenade.

06:57:58.760 --> 06:58:00.040
Nicely done, Laurel.

06:58:02.360 --> 06:58:03.400
I'll catch them.

06:58:03.400 --> 06:58:04.840
Still gonna try, no one.

06:58:05.240 --> 06:58:06.760
Rolls forward, they'll look to collapse.

06:58:06.760 --> 06:58:09.320
Forget it with the side, the smoke just comes through with the fiend's gate.

06:58:09.320 --> 06:58:10.560
They'll take the undying out.

06:58:10.560 --> 06:58:12.080
Takes the full five of the note.

06:58:15.360 --> 06:58:18.240
A needed move at this point to react in this type of manner.

06:58:18.240 --> 06:58:20.080
They won't be able to get Laurel though, unfortunately,

06:58:20.080 --> 06:58:23.420
because he does get that blink up before the blood grenade hits.

06:58:23.420 --> 06:58:25.540
Vru now, that blink, it is done.

06:58:25.540 --> 06:58:28.200
So much easier for Spirit to make these moves around the map.

06:58:28.200 --> 06:58:31.960
The vision, you said, Satanic, it's eyes on him.

06:58:31.960 --> 06:58:34.200
With this Radiant, it's gonna go for the armlet.

06:58:34.200 --> 06:58:35.500
Plenty versus all this minus armor,

06:58:35.500 --> 06:58:36.720
and he's like, dude, just a great fight,

06:58:36.720 --> 06:58:38.840
build part of the force.

06:58:38.840 --> 06:58:40.280
See how much he could do.

06:58:40.280 --> 06:58:41.320
I mean, that's the difference.

06:58:41.320 --> 06:58:43.440
Last game, it was like, well,

06:58:43.440 --> 06:58:45.040
probably not gonna be able to carry the game

06:58:45.040 --> 06:58:47.280
as numbers, but this game, there is a chance.

06:58:47.280 --> 06:58:49.680
There's absolutely a chance that Satanic can carry this.

06:58:49.680 --> 06:58:51.000
It's still incredibly hard.

06:58:51.000 --> 06:58:53.120
They're going to get the jump with the crush.

06:58:53.120 --> 06:58:54.640
They're going to put the damage.

06:58:54.640 --> 06:58:55.640
Now, it's going to fall.

06:58:55.640 --> 06:58:57.080
Now, the Kinesis, but Ruz waiting with the blink call.

06:58:57.080 --> 06:58:58.360
Get the lock down on the Satanic.

06:58:58.360 --> 06:59:00.200
Satanic trying to run over to the safety.

06:59:00.200 --> 06:59:02.600
Nine class will be able to jump in it with the infest,

06:59:02.600 --> 06:59:04.120
but the chase is going to continue.

06:59:04.120 --> 06:59:04.960
They're surrounded.

06:59:04.960 --> 06:59:06.200
They're going to blink up in a second.

06:59:06.200 --> 06:59:08.360
They'll get the cruiser face on towards nine class.

06:59:08.360 --> 06:59:09.840
Nine class is gone.

06:59:09.840 --> 06:59:11.480
Laurel, Blaken, two, one.

06:59:11.480 --> 06:59:13.240
It's the second there's Ruz with the jump.

06:59:13.240 --> 06:59:14.400
Get the blink call.

06:59:14.400 --> 06:59:15.880
Dragging Satanic back.

06:59:15.880 --> 06:59:18.200
Lyle jump said, bushwhites there to lock him up.

06:59:18.200 --> 06:59:19.000
No one's here.

06:59:19.000 --> 06:59:21.400
Unintentionally to help out Big Connector.

06:59:21.400 --> 06:59:25.000
He'll get the double with the help of Notice, but no one still dies.

06:59:25.000 --> 06:59:29.200
And Lael and Gatorra, they can continue the chase over to Notice.

06:59:29.200 --> 06:59:30.600
Notice tries to turn.

06:59:30.600 --> 06:59:34.000
The bash comes in, the Neutrals do hold Gatorra back momentarily,

06:59:34.000 --> 06:59:37.600
but the bushback but Luffy still reaches forward, sets up for the raise.

06:59:37.600 --> 06:59:39.000
Notice falls.

06:59:39.000 --> 06:59:43.200
They're able to at least bring a fair few of Spirit down with them, Vision,

06:59:43.200 --> 06:59:46.400
but still losing all three cores themselves

06:59:46.400 --> 06:59:49.840
and not being able to do anything about Yatoro.

06:59:49.840 --> 06:59:54.680
Couldn't protect Zatenik, but the best trade they've gotten this game so far, this series in fact,

06:59:54.680 --> 06:59:57.000
getting these extra kills, no one getting the connection,

06:59:57.000 --> 07:00:00.000
the Radiance damage did start to build up, but oh, just a...

07:00:00.000 --> 07:00:04.160
Zoro! Just a class time! An amp damage spawns right outside the pit.

07:00:04.160 --> 07:00:06.680
Gonna be able to commit for this Roche to scan, we'll connect.

07:00:06.680 --> 07:00:07.480
They're a little scared.

07:00:07.480 --> 07:00:11.400
Well, not scared necessarily, maybe just looking to see if they can find a kill before they go for the Roche.

07:00:11.400 --> 07:00:12.920
Zatenik?

07:00:12.920 --> 07:00:15.160
Careful, he acts as in position for the call.

07:00:15.160 --> 07:00:16.200
He gets it!

07:00:16.200 --> 07:00:20.360
10 seconds of blowing through, he's got the setup into the boost flag, six Panic, he's got again!

07:00:20.360 --> 07:00:21.880
This amp damage!

07:00:21.880 --> 07:00:25.960
The Atoroh with the arm damage, a couple of right clicks, the uphill miss!

07:00:25.960 --> 07:00:30.200
The Zemada still gets the job done, double kill for Atoroh!

07:00:30.200 --> 07:00:33.960
Even Gabin on Spirit's side here, Spotted, amp damage spawning down here.

07:00:33.960 --> 07:00:35.800
They're going to be able to commit for the Roche.

07:00:35.800 --> 07:00:40.120
Laurel has a medallion too, but he got with his Tier 2 neutral, level 2 for Rochevay's,

07:00:40.120 --> 07:00:47.120
Good for us. Back to back. That's the panic. The last big like stealer. He's having a much better entry for this game.

07:00:47.120 --> 07:00:51.120
Still having those four deaths. They have a lot of answers for him.

07:00:54.120 --> 07:00:59.120
A difficult one yet again here for vision in this ground finals game.

07:00:59.120 --> 07:01:01.120
But better than last time.

07:01:01.120 --> 07:01:02.120
It is, but...

07:01:02.120 --> 07:01:06.120
It's a few ways to enter these fights, but yeah, Yatoro, he is 4k ahead.

07:01:06.120 --> 07:01:18.120
I mean, if they don't manage to turn this game and we go to game three, surely there's something that they can do to ensure that Yatoro is just not getting these sort of starts two times back-to-back here on his SF.

07:01:18.120 --> 07:01:20.120
He's making this grand finals look easy so far.

07:01:20.120 --> 07:01:24.120
He is, and collapsed now, but he's starting to try to get into no one's head as long as no one rolls top.

07:01:24.120 --> 07:01:25.120
The rune spawns bottom.

07:01:25.120 --> 07:01:28.120
He's not going to be fortunate for him to collapse a little bit of shield rune.

07:01:28.120 --> 07:01:33.120
And with this minus armor, he can actually just go for an immediate tormenter, super efficient when it's a little too.

07:01:33.120 --> 07:01:36.800
He gets it on not me one of the better shards that you can get

07:01:39.960 --> 07:01:44.020
And for the slightest of vision they don't really have these BKB piercing disables

07:01:44.020 --> 07:01:46.960
They have much harder ways to start fights and force fights

07:01:46.960 --> 07:01:49.720
It's really has to be around no one and as we've seen multiple times

07:01:50.000 --> 07:01:53.060
He has to be careful because once he's committed in those fights

07:01:53.200 --> 07:01:56.400
He dies and just so fast to all this physical damage

07:01:58.140 --> 07:02:00.140
Hard for them to make these moves aggressively

07:02:03.120 --> 07:02:05.120
I mean, they want to try and eat.

07:02:05.120 --> 07:02:08.120
Helping the push. They get the set up here with the felons. The two of them.

07:02:08.120 --> 07:02:09.120
This is a good connection.

07:02:09.120 --> 07:02:12.120
Okay, can they bring him down quickly the once they catch?

07:02:12.120 --> 07:02:13.120
The age is gone.

07:02:13.120 --> 07:02:16.120
Oh, this is a huge catch. Nightclash gets the sharpshooter still too.

07:02:16.120 --> 07:02:18.120
They're trying to bring back up over to help him out.

07:02:18.120 --> 07:02:20.120
They look for the red grim, but they're stunned from the center.

07:02:20.120 --> 07:02:21.120
Or is there to put a stop to it?

07:02:21.120 --> 07:02:22.120
The turtle's going down.

07:02:22.120 --> 07:02:25.120
Take it out! Oh, against the kill!

07:02:25.120 --> 07:02:27.120
Rue, he'll TP out of there.

07:02:27.120 --> 07:02:28.120
A vision.

07:02:28.120 --> 07:02:34.080
Finally, being able to take out Yatora in a situation where he had that aegis, a rare

07:02:34.080 --> 07:02:38.280
sort of misstep from Yatora where he may have just felt that he was a bit further ahead

07:02:38.280 --> 07:02:39.280
than he is.

07:02:39.280 --> 07:02:42.080
You know, he's incredibly far ahead, but not that far ahead enough, that he could just

07:02:42.080 --> 07:02:44.480
step up with the aegis without a team behind him.

07:02:44.480 --> 07:02:46.600
Vision, they'll punish that any day of the week.

07:02:46.600 --> 07:02:49.600
The last game when they did this type of move, they had collapse with them.

07:02:49.600 --> 07:02:52.160
This time, not having collapse, absolutely crucial.

07:02:52.160 --> 07:02:53.840
They see that on the side of vision.

07:02:53.840 --> 07:02:55.960
They bring all five heroes with the team's game.

07:02:55.960 --> 07:02:57.080
Nice move from notice.

07:02:57.080 --> 07:03:00.360
year for him to get involved this game so not having the initiation from the

07:03:00.360 --> 07:03:03.360
Earth spirit this time but having the ads on the Underlord actually making the

07:03:03.360 --> 07:03:04.800
difference so good timing for them.

07:03:04.800 --> 07:03:08.000
So a little bit of a slowdown there from Vision, well needed as well.

07:03:08.000 --> 07:03:12.280
If Spirit were allowed to continue to pick up objectives with that Aegis this

07:03:12.280 --> 07:03:17.480
game would have fallen into an incredibly dire position but hope's here now for Vision.

07:03:17.480 --> 07:03:21.480
Oh, Regen has been fouled. Shark Shitter will connect.

07:03:21.480 --> 07:03:22.480
One.

07:03:22.480 --> 07:03:27.480
He's around to make it a little less appealing for Spirit to commit for to Khaalys.

07:03:27.480 --> 07:03:29.480
Trying to get him out of here won't happen.

07:03:29.480 --> 07:03:30.480
There's all this goes down.

07:03:30.480 --> 07:03:31.480
Oh, the way.

07:03:31.480 --> 07:03:33.480
He'll also get the cool ones and eyeglasses.

07:03:33.480 --> 07:03:35.480
Well, at the battle hunger, they should be able to pick up both supports.

07:03:35.480 --> 07:03:36.480
He'll try and lift himself away.

07:03:36.480 --> 07:03:38.480
Blows him with a blank double kill.

07:03:38.480 --> 07:03:39.480
The Yatora.

07:03:39.480 --> 07:03:40.480
Speed from Spirit.

07:03:40.480 --> 07:03:41.480
No magnetize available.

07:03:41.480 --> 07:03:42.480
No underlord gate.

07:03:42.480 --> 07:03:43.480
They immediately burn at them.

07:03:43.480 --> 07:03:46.480
We'll be able to catch those two supports, but not quirkings.

07:03:46.480 --> 07:03:48.680
Instant smoke though, they do want to find another one.

07:03:50.360 --> 07:03:51.920
Tannic, showing himself up top.

07:03:51.920 --> 07:03:54.520
Armlet is done, gonna go for that, Manta.

07:03:54.520 --> 07:03:56.400
I like the build, big pre-stand at this game.

07:03:56.400 --> 07:03:57.920
Going for the Armlet, Manta, AC,

07:03:57.920 --> 07:03:59.240
playing versus this physical damage,

07:03:59.240 --> 07:04:01.400
wants a way to dispell that Corosaphase too.

07:04:01.400 --> 07:04:03.400
All makes sense from Tannic.

07:04:03.400 --> 07:04:06.560
Can they connect with this squad rotation?

07:04:06.560 --> 07:04:09.160
Even if these two do, won't be the easiest of kills.

07:04:09.160 --> 07:04:11.240
No, they probably want him to borrow to be in there

07:04:11.240 --> 07:04:12.760
if they want to go for a triangle play,

07:04:12.760 --> 07:04:15.000
so it looks like it's not gonna be the case.

07:04:15.000 --> 07:04:22.000
The 9th class, I like that he buys the shard this game, knows that he needs to be the save for Satanic, or for no one to bail them out of a potential bad scenario.

07:04:23.000 --> 07:04:24.000
I like it quite a lot.

07:04:26.000 --> 07:04:35.000
No one starting to recover. Has a way to protect himself now too, does have a plate mail, so will be able to potentially survive versus that high burst. They're getting aggressive again.

07:04:36.000 --> 07:04:38.000
Ulti's at the ready, they've got Queensgate.

07:04:40.000 --> 07:04:42.000
See who no one can find.

07:04:42.000 --> 07:04:48.000
Really big slowdown that they were able to do until Yutoro once. Can they find another poor kill?

07:04:48.000 --> 07:04:57.000
Yutoro this time does need a BKB this game. Not going to do it before the Shadowblade, but the next item after that will be that BKB versus the Magnetize and the Underlord.

07:04:57.000 --> 07:05:01.000
So they do have windows if they get on top of him at the moment, they will kill him.

07:05:01.000 --> 07:05:04.000
How's Collapse doing with his build?

07:05:04.000 --> 07:05:11.000
Okay, still the Slotis going for that Octurain, then the eventual Blink Shard for the save, but this time also Collapse being slowed down himself.

07:05:11.000 --> 07:05:16.000
Not having that same insane performance as he did on the Undying last time.

07:05:16.000 --> 07:05:18.000
It's happened slow down.

07:05:21.000 --> 07:05:23.000
Won't get any kills with that move.

07:05:23.000 --> 07:05:26.000
They do manage to secure tier 1 tower.

07:05:26.000 --> 07:05:28.000
They get a rune as well too for no one.

07:05:28.000 --> 07:05:30.000
So he's going to have the amp damage because this is the next fight.

07:05:30.000 --> 07:05:31.000
And almost a Sheeva's too.

07:05:31.000 --> 07:05:36.000
So things starting to come more and more together for the side of vision to take these fights versus Spirit.

07:05:36.000 --> 07:05:37.000
Spirit.

07:05:38.000 --> 07:05:40.000
I just want to call this.

07:05:40.000 --> 07:05:45.500
One in the river. Has got no one by his side if no one wants to fight, but same for three of them.

07:05:45.500 --> 07:05:49.500
They're gonna try, but VKB's up, but no one's running for this.

07:05:49.500 --> 07:05:53.000
They've got the call-up towards it, while coming up with the right clicks into the cross.

07:05:53.000 --> 07:05:55.500
The same's there, though, nine-plus, every track, no one back at the diagram.

07:05:55.500 --> 07:05:59.000
Lowell's still on top of it, though. No one will fall. There's no need.

07:05:59.000 --> 07:06:03.000
Get the double. They're looking to collapse, but notice he doesn't have enough damage on his own.

07:06:03.000 --> 07:06:06.000
He's going to kill this and die, and Yatoro can turn over to a notice.

07:06:06.000 --> 07:06:11.740
Rujan's back in will die for that play and may have just set up for Yatora to finish the kill

07:06:11.740 --> 07:06:14.240
No, another Tatek needs to say does it matter?

07:06:14.240 --> 07:06:15.240
No, he's there

07:06:15.240 --> 07:06:19.240
And with the wrap round gets the triple with the finisher and now he looks over on Night Class

07:06:19.240 --> 07:06:22.240
Falls fall from Yatora, they take out another

07:06:22.240 --> 07:06:25.240
Tatek is going to drive out, but he's surrounded by-

07:06:25.240 --> 07:06:26.240
3-D1

07:06:26.240 --> 07:06:27.240
He's got to run

07:06:27.240 --> 07:06:29.240
Picard has come in with the heals

07:06:29.240 --> 07:06:31.240
Under the tier 2 they'll hit with the sharpshooter

07:06:31.240 --> 07:06:34.740
He's tempting to dive this, get a few more right clicks in onto these charters

07:06:34.740 --> 07:06:36.920
Tracey's up to the high ground.

07:06:36.920 --> 07:06:38.900
Should be fine.

07:06:38.900 --> 07:06:41.460
Trades coming in, a couple of decent failouts,

07:06:41.460 --> 07:06:44.140
attempting to save no one, but still gets chased forward.

07:06:44.140 --> 07:06:45.740
They have the lift, they have the infest,

07:06:45.740 --> 07:06:47.220
but the chase forward's there.

07:06:47.220 --> 07:06:48.180
Not me.

07:06:48.180 --> 07:06:49.820
What a catch from this hoodwink.

07:06:49.820 --> 07:06:51.620
It's level 16.

07:06:51.620 --> 07:06:53.260
He's higher level than all the cores.

07:06:53.260 --> 07:06:54.700
Like almost all the cores.

07:06:54.700 --> 07:06:56.180
What is going on?

07:06:56.180 --> 07:06:57.660
This hoodwink.

07:06:57.660 --> 07:06:59.980
He was just in perfect position each and every time

07:06:59.980 --> 07:07:03.460
there, to react to 1-9 plus 1-2-2.

07:07:03.460 --> 07:07:06.420
Looking to line it up for him again here, they have the retwee, I'm a tricky.

07:07:06.420 --> 07:07:07.620
That's the ragehold.

07:07:07.620 --> 07:07:10.580
Gonna try and turn to the wall, not me, not me, and the tree's discurring.

07:07:10.580 --> 07:07:13.780
He's about to finish, so he has to stop backing away.

07:07:13.780 --> 07:07:17.700
I mean, it's level 16, he has 25 armor.

07:07:17.700 --> 07:07:20.660
Good luck hitting it with the lifestealer, it's getting redirected to the trees.

07:07:20.660 --> 07:07:22.020
Super tanky as well.

07:07:23.060 --> 07:07:26.580
Not that he can play aggressively there, Gatoro with the shadow blade, looking for more.

07:07:26.580 --> 07:07:29.060
You're the cool, but again, nine plus two and a bitch trying to bail,

07:07:29.060 --> 07:07:30.340
it's caused out each and every time.

07:07:30.340 --> 07:07:31.340
And the Ghost Sector.

07:07:31.340 --> 07:07:34.840
Keep him safe for now, but it's going to come to a finish, Lars in with a crush.

07:07:34.840 --> 07:07:36.340
That's going to be notice gone.

07:07:36.340 --> 07:07:37.840
Lars considering diving for more hairs.

07:07:37.840 --> 07:07:40.840
He pops the BKB, turns the attention over towards 9th class.

07:07:40.840 --> 07:07:41.840
The bash is there.

07:07:41.840 --> 07:07:42.840
Into the crush.

07:07:42.840 --> 07:07:43.840
That's 9th class.

07:07:43.840 --> 07:07:44.840
Going to fight back.

07:07:44.840 --> 07:07:45.840
He's coming in here from notice.

07:07:45.840 --> 07:07:46.840
Look at this back attack.

07:07:46.840 --> 07:07:47.840
Look at this attack.

07:07:47.840 --> 07:07:48.840
Fight back with a chance.

07:07:48.840 --> 07:07:50.840
The Magnetite damage, he's put between all of them.

07:07:50.840 --> 07:07:51.840
He's bringing Spirit down.

07:07:51.840 --> 07:07:52.840
They've lost 3 of them.

07:07:52.840 --> 07:07:54.840
Yutaro gets the Red Ribbon to push them back.

07:07:54.840 --> 07:07:56.340
Turns to Walter Giles.

07:07:56.340 --> 07:07:57.840
Hopefully enough to kill the Entrantress.

07:07:57.840 --> 07:07:59.840
No one knows he has to push forward.

07:07:59.840 --> 07:08:01.840
They have to try and put it to Toro now!

07:08:01.840 --> 07:08:03.840
It does! It's wearing off towards him!

07:08:03.840 --> 07:08:05.840
The roll fought, they're trapping in the pit!

07:08:05.840 --> 07:08:09.840
Toro, they've got any more detection out of these don't!

07:08:09.840 --> 07:08:11.840
Toro should be fine!

07:08:11.840 --> 07:08:13.840
They used all of them, I believe the double dust already popped,

07:08:13.840 --> 07:08:15.840
and they noticed, and the support they already used,

07:08:15.840 --> 07:08:16.840
that it started to wear off.

07:08:16.840 --> 07:08:17.840
What a connection!

07:08:17.840 --> 07:08:20.840
It is a buyback from Notice, so it's expensive,

07:08:20.840 --> 07:08:22.840
but look at that magnetized damage!

07:08:22.840 --> 07:08:24.840
He clipped onto absolutely the whole team!

07:08:25.840 --> 07:08:27.840
Some good connections, some good kills.

07:08:27.840 --> 07:08:33.360
It was a buyback having to be used to be able to fight back there, but at this point probably pretty worth it

07:08:33.360 --> 07:08:39.140
I think yeah, you'll take anything the sororist stops spirit from building up that never seems even more

07:08:39.920 --> 07:08:43.480
It's gonna mean the vision are closer and closer to buying time

07:08:43.640 --> 07:08:46.740
Let's see Tannick to get to the point where you can carry this game as the live stealer

07:08:47.000 --> 07:08:49.760
This game they do have some great scaling in that last game

07:08:49.760 --> 07:08:52.280
You can see they don't have that scaling spirit

07:08:52.280 --> 07:08:55.600
Of course also has some pretty scaling themselves too with all this

07:08:55.600 --> 07:08:59.600
excessive damage that they can amplify.

07:08:59.600 --> 07:09:03.600
But a good strike back there, vision.

07:09:03.600 --> 07:09:10.600
Getting satanic in a position now where he's got Manta, he's got the hyperstone, getting closer and closer toward these extra armor items for the team.

07:09:10.600 --> 07:09:17.600
And definitely seeing the damage amplification on the side of Spirit, but there's all this indication on the side of vision from the underlord in Rubik.

07:09:17.600 --> 07:09:20.600
Very, very dead here in the river.

07:09:20.600 --> 07:09:22.900
They're looking to snowball with these kills.

07:09:22.900 --> 07:09:23.800
It's alright.

07:09:23.800 --> 07:09:25.900
Ready to hit hard here with the Silver Edge.

07:09:31.400 --> 07:09:33.400
Blinded anyone around the tower, Static.

07:09:33.400 --> 07:09:33.900
Oh.

07:09:34.700 --> 07:09:36.900
They've got a rage-off, but still heavy damage through it.

07:09:36.900 --> 07:09:38.700
Like Vector Dodge off the call,

07:09:38.700 --> 07:09:40.400
allows it to get the effect off.

07:09:40.400 --> 07:09:42.700
He'll still get put by the bush like another big Vector,

07:09:42.700 --> 07:09:44.700
so it's a time to be giving up for a while.

07:09:44.700 --> 07:09:45.800
They're going to step just by,

07:09:45.800 --> 07:09:47.400
some protection is for no one to notice,

07:09:47.400 --> 07:09:49.400
but not enough to keep no one alive.

07:09:49.400 --> 07:09:50.960
No one will fall!

07:09:50.960 --> 07:09:55.400
They try so hard to protect Zatanic, but Spirit, they know exactly where he is.

07:09:55.400 --> 07:10:00.160
And no one, even though he's got Sheebas and Go-Septar, still vulnerable.

07:10:00.160 --> 07:10:01.640
There's so much mixed damage.

07:10:01.640 --> 07:10:05.800
I mean, it was a very cute attempt to try and survive there with the man to dodge at the call,

07:10:05.800 --> 07:10:09.200
but still not enough to get away from Spirit.

07:10:09.200 --> 07:10:11.800
It's insane how aggressive they're playing, Owen.

07:10:11.800 --> 07:10:14.200
It's 29 minutes, 29 kills.

07:10:14.200 --> 07:10:17.000
They are not playing a farming series by any means.

07:10:17.000 --> 07:10:21.500
They want to put this pressure on as much as possible on the vision, force them to play reactive.

07:10:21.500 --> 07:10:26.500
That's exactly what it is, right? A reactive game from vision, which usually it's them on the aggression.

07:10:26.500 --> 07:10:30.000
Nope, it just continues to get caught. Seven deaths now for this Earth Spirit.

07:10:32.500 --> 07:10:34.500
Bringing in the mid wave and the bottom wave.

07:10:34.500 --> 07:10:39.000
And it's for me, it's for Yatoro. Still only the one death. It's very impressive in this game.

07:10:39.000 --> 07:10:41.500
Having a lot of magical damage to go through him.

07:10:41.500 --> 07:10:46.900
Looks like he is going to go back for that DKB potentially here too, which is going to protect a lot versus the control.

07:10:47.400 --> 07:10:49.400
And he's going to be pretty much invincible with DKB.

07:10:49.400 --> 07:10:50.100
He is.

07:10:54.900 --> 07:10:55.800
Pinching forward.

07:10:55.800 --> 07:10:58.900
Double Shiva's being picked up here, so they have committed onto these.

07:10:58.900 --> 07:11:00.800
I mean, they want an Iming. They want to go over this.

07:11:00.800 --> 07:11:04.400
Yeah, they want to win these next fights before that DKB comes out from the S.O.

07:11:04.400 --> 07:11:04.900
Vision?

07:11:07.300 --> 07:11:08.800
Time to try with a smart move.

07:11:08.800 --> 07:11:10.800
I'll catch it.

07:11:10.800 --> 07:11:13.800
Clean catch to start this one. Not a lot of room to do.

07:11:13.800 --> 07:11:14.800
Catch all Solich.

07:11:14.800 --> 07:11:17.800
We'll prefer another one on to not make some tanics on top of him.

07:11:17.800 --> 07:11:19.800
Alright, they'll get the chase down.

07:11:19.800 --> 07:11:20.800
Put him in the pit.

07:11:20.800 --> 07:11:22.800
They'll get the two supports.

07:11:22.800 --> 07:11:26.800
I think it's the first aggressive move that we see vision actually able to connect with.

07:11:26.800 --> 07:11:28.800
It is just the two supports again.

07:11:28.800 --> 07:11:29.800
But surrounded good timing.

07:11:29.800 --> 07:11:31.800
20 seconds until Roche is going to be smawning.

07:11:31.800 --> 07:11:33.800
And they didn't commit the magnetize.

07:11:33.800 --> 07:11:36.800
They did use fiends gate, but they have magnetize for the upcoming fight.

07:11:36.800 --> 07:11:40.080
They're gonna buy gem as well looking to constrict some of that vision

07:11:40.080 --> 07:11:46.240
He's gonna have the hit here with the celebrate the carless not stumbling any sort of charts there

07:11:46.520 --> 07:11:49.360
Not me with a buyback coming. I mean, they know what's coming up

07:11:49.360 --> 07:11:53.420
Oh, yeah, they do not want to let vision get that opportunity. Oh and not the also

07:11:53.600 --> 07:11:56.920
He has a greater healing looks something to always watch in these fights

07:11:56.920 --> 07:12:01.640
We did see a crazy one the other day from Lauren offered with that enigma play these lotuses can be

07:12:01.960 --> 07:12:04.080
Pretty massive in this game. Look how much he can heal

07:12:04.080 --> 07:12:10.320
right 1400 kill that he's going to be able to apply onto somebody plus the Sauras they have

07:12:14.160 --> 07:12:18.000
doesn't end up getting them anything here but they were afraid of the potential Rochefly here

07:12:19.680 --> 07:12:23.760
getting big pickups i mean lal he's pretty much got the snarl applied done

07:12:23.760 --> 07:12:27.040
he can get that relic sent over and they did commit for the double ghost scepters

07:12:27.040 --> 07:12:30.720
plus the Shiva so those ghost scepters aren't going to be as good in these next upcoming

07:12:30.720 --> 07:12:36.480
builds either. No BKBs for vision just yet. Quite vulnerable versus the disables.

07:12:39.040 --> 07:12:43.520
Probably yeah, Kralos gonna come up for underlord BKB for no one eventually at some point.

07:12:43.520 --> 07:12:48.000
Keeping this game, it's stuck at 6k. Spirit looking to blow it open here. His vision gonna

07:12:48.000 --> 07:12:52.240
be prepared for the move. It looks like they are right now, no one. In prime position to

07:12:52.240 --> 07:12:57.200
break the smoke, he is feeding it. Okay, put the scan, no other visions up there.

07:12:57.200 --> 07:12:59.200
Maybe for a different angle

07:12:59.200 --> 07:13:03.200
Maybe seeing if they can catch St. Sannick a little split from the rest of the team

07:13:03.200 --> 07:13:05.200
I mean they know they're up on this high ground

07:13:05.200 --> 07:13:06.200
Okay

07:13:06.200 --> 07:13:09.200
He's gonna roll in first with the Sheavers

07:13:09.200 --> 07:13:10.200
Not three

07:13:10.200 --> 07:13:12.200
Another fighter take that ghost to the field

07:13:12.200 --> 07:13:13.200
The fiend's gate comes in now

07:13:13.200 --> 07:13:16.200
The turns would not be able to jump up the sharp shoot with a fuller pitch there

07:13:16.200 --> 07:13:18.200
Two of us don't save by something a little bit of time

07:13:18.200 --> 07:13:19.200
But they'll take the dreamstone out

07:13:19.200 --> 07:13:20.200
Kill the hookwing cock

07:13:20.200 --> 07:13:22.200
That's 90 seconds now, hoodling

07:13:22.200 --> 07:13:25.200
That's a pretty massive kill that they find here

07:13:25.200 --> 07:13:27.800
They're going to chase for more, Gatoro.

07:13:27.800 --> 07:13:30.200
Try for a few car lists.

07:13:30.200 --> 07:13:32.800
I'm not getting nearly enough hits off.

07:13:32.800 --> 07:13:34.400
Gatoro going more greed.

07:13:34.400 --> 07:13:35.400
I like it.

07:13:35.400 --> 07:13:36.400
He's going MKB.

07:13:36.400 --> 07:13:40.000
It's a very Gatoro style, trying to stall out that BKB as long as possible.

07:13:40.000 --> 07:13:41.500
See if this can punish that.

07:13:41.500 --> 07:13:42.500
No one.

07:13:42.500 --> 07:13:44.000
He's ready to try and look for luck.

07:13:44.000 --> 07:13:45.200
The silence is on through the lot.

07:13:45.200 --> 07:13:48.560
They're still up the BKB, ready to press if he gets pressured so it's not an easy

07:13:48.560 --> 07:13:49.760
hero to chase for.

07:13:49.760 --> 07:13:53.000
They have this 5v4 advantage at the moment.

07:13:53.000 --> 07:13:58.000
They're looking forward to getting more catches. Take some of these words out as well too at the jam.

07:14:00.000 --> 07:14:03.000
Fighting back nicely here, vision. Gonna start that Roche.

07:14:04.000 --> 07:14:11.000
They have the stolen Corrosive Haze. Oh, and this could catch Spirit off guard with the pace that this is gonna be able to kill it.

07:14:12.000 --> 07:14:15.000
The Spirit's gonna make a move quick if they wanna try and stop this, and they are gonna be fast with it. The smoke's there.

07:14:16.000 --> 07:14:19.000
It's only four of them. They do have the MKB though, so heavy hits from the enemy.

07:14:19.000 --> 07:14:22.000
Yeah, they're still pretty strong within the 4v5, but they leave their half.

07:14:22.000 --> 07:14:26.160
They're going to give up Fredwell, but no one either the court with the telekinesis and their nightclubs trying to save them.

07:14:26.160 --> 07:14:28.660
They're going to have to decide if they would not be able to keep up with the life no one could.

07:14:28.660 --> 07:14:29.460
It's World.

07:14:29.460 --> 07:14:31.460
It's the fight by Sid's, that's the children watching.

07:14:31.460 --> 07:14:31.960
He's back.

07:14:31.960 --> 07:14:33.960
They're barred down into somewhere, he's out for the 90s.

07:14:33.960 --> 07:14:35.960
Sid's only back down with the fight for now.

07:14:35.960 --> 07:14:40.960
Back to the rhythm, no one's put up the fight, they're compacted, helps to bring down Laugh, helps to make that collapse.

07:14:40.960 --> 07:14:41.960
They're going off.

07:14:41.960 --> 07:14:42.960
Go on through.

07:14:42.960 --> 07:14:47.260
Knife class will end the zombies for the Jews, they're killing, but it doesn't matter.

07:14:47.260 --> 07:14:50.620
Vision, they take the fight, we'll move into the roast.

07:14:50.620 --> 07:14:52.900
This ages is that they're doing it Owen

07:14:53.660 --> 07:14:57.660
Showing that they can have a fighting chance in this series bringing it to your Toro

07:14:57.660 --> 07:15:02.700
You're talking for the greedy play as soon as he gets gone on top of I mean is at risk. Yeah

07:15:02.700 --> 07:15:09.280
I mean, I love you know for going the BKB to get the big part hitting items, but that is one of those moments where

07:15:09.760 --> 07:15:13.920
Yeah, yeah, the teammates probably picking the lack of BKB

07:15:13.920 --> 07:15:20.240
as Dean Gatoro gets completely surrounded and it was so quick with that play right no

07:15:20.240 --> 07:15:24.440
one immediately buying back saying hey guys they're gonna throw everything on me you'll

07:15:24.440 --> 07:15:29.440
see it here the buyback there is no delay as soon as he goes down back in he knows this

07:15:29.440 --> 07:15:31.720
fight is there for vision to take.

07:15:31.720 --> 07:15:35.400
And Gatoro's just stuck inside that fiends gate he really can't move has to just try

07:15:35.400 --> 07:15:36.760
to stand his ground.

07:15:36.760 --> 07:15:40.880
They'll give no one the ages since he did use that buyback before I think Stokanik

07:15:40.880 --> 07:15:45.680
is starting to feel like he's in a state where he doesn't need that second life either. He has the AC,

07:15:45.680 --> 07:15:48.560
each people is starting to build up also from all these fee snacks.

07:15:51.040 --> 07:15:57.280
Vision now. Here we go with a clear advantage in this game. Finally getting some real good control

07:15:57.280 --> 07:16:03.200
in this matchup after a very tough game one and a rough kind of first 30 minutes but now

07:16:03.200 --> 07:16:07.840
with that play setting the score even on the net worth and getting that kill right not me

07:16:07.840 --> 07:16:12.480
using the buyback earlier dying it causes this type of chain effect that comes in

07:16:12.480 --> 07:16:15.880
here for vision and maybe trying to get another kill Yatoro they're gonna find him

07:16:15.880 --> 07:16:19.680
we'll be able to play if they do find real one

07:16:22.320 --> 07:16:28.080
big rules from vision how much do they want to go for agonims nearly done on

07:16:28.080 --> 07:16:33.040
satanic 500 going he's got the point booster one of the three mansters versus

07:16:33.040 --> 07:16:35.880
these turret heroes just jumping inside of them it gives you both of the

07:16:35.880 --> 07:16:40.440
different lives essentially on this life stealer to play with getting aggressive

07:16:40.440 --> 07:16:44.580
again Titanic start to beat on these towers for spirit they'll get it up

07:16:44.580 --> 07:16:47.960
momentum they will now it does feel like though you're gonna might need that

07:16:47.960 --> 07:16:51.120
VKB for that next fight I think so I don't know if he's gonna want to turn

07:16:51.120 --> 07:16:56.160
up to feed has to before that VKB's done now maybe he just goes for the

07:16:56.160 --> 07:17:00.280
satanic because he's packing some items like that's some slots where you

07:17:00.280 --> 07:17:02.760
got to put it in it's just gonna replace the mask of madness with the

07:17:02.760 --> 07:17:05.200
BKB, we'll have to see what the choice is from Yatoro.

07:17:09.000 --> 07:17:10.600
Right strike back here from Vision.

07:17:11.000 --> 07:17:13.340
Now having a jamper themselves through Kallus also.

07:17:13.660 --> 07:17:15.340
Getting close to a BKB himself.

07:17:15.600 --> 07:17:17.440
Can't write off the enchantress' scaling.

07:17:17.700 --> 07:17:19.060
Does have this hurricane pike.

07:17:19.060 --> 07:17:20.740
His damage is going to start to build up.

07:17:25.240 --> 07:17:28.140
Such an important moment for Vision to be able to find this connection.

07:17:28.900 --> 07:17:30.940
A hex soon to be picked up also for notice.

07:17:30.940 --> 07:17:32.740
So they're going to have these chain disables.

07:17:32.760 --> 07:17:34.760
Versus the Shadowfiend

07:17:35.440 --> 07:17:40.480
Go for your Torah every single time. They seem in the fight. He is probably came in number one

07:17:40.800 --> 07:17:44.720
Laurel has been able to sneak himself out because he does have that BKP, but as we said your Torah

07:17:44.720 --> 07:17:46.720
He is stuck in the fights

07:17:48.520 --> 07:17:53.760
Anemies items they aren't quickly flaring in like you said that axe is done the basher started to get queued up next

07:17:55.960 --> 07:17:58.080
Only the victory around the mid

07:17:58.080 --> 07:18:04.960
He's trying to jump away but they're ready to drop the fiends gate. Lock him down here.

07:18:04.960 --> 07:18:10.840
No one's missing a spell at all. Everything's landing. Not me. He cannot. This gate notes

07:18:10.840 --> 07:18:16.600
is surely there. The A-core shot coming in. Satanic, ready to help finish the job.

07:18:16.600 --> 07:18:24.240
After 70 again. A long time here to not have the full five man up on spirit.

07:18:24.240 --> 07:18:27.120
Just on even footing, you're seeing how much stronger vision is. Sure, there's no

07:18:27.120 --> 07:18:30.300
gold leafy you can feel much stronger their line up is now at this point and

07:18:30.300 --> 07:18:35.400
having this ages to gonna start beating on high ground with the banner

07:18:35.400 --> 07:18:40.400
Itoro has the Ogre or the Nitro Hammer picked up here so you can see he does

07:18:40.400 --> 07:18:44.960
need this DKB for that next upcoming fight. A Hexo is picked up so he could

07:18:44.960 --> 07:18:49.080
get chain stun before he gets it off as well. I'm sorry Tanya, he was just taking the barrage.

07:18:49.080 --> 07:18:53.080
Closing the question to them, how do you push them off?

07:18:54.080 --> 07:18:58.080
Now he's still dead for 35 seconds, they need their entire squad.

07:19:00.080 --> 07:19:03.080
I just have to sit back and watch this MiBRAX fall.

07:19:04.080 --> 07:19:08.080
Vision, get away with the objective, no interruption.

07:19:08.080 --> 07:19:12.080
Very good connections, Yitoro, BKB's done, he sells the Mask of Madness,

07:19:12.080 --> 07:19:14.080
doesn't have that life steal to stand his ground,

07:19:14.080 --> 07:19:18.080
but he has the magic resistance versus this heavy disable that's coming in.

07:19:19.080 --> 07:19:24.740
I love that window in 30 seconds where the Aegis expires if they want to try and strike

07:19:24.740 --> 07:19:25.740
then.

07:19:25.740 --> 07:19:27.060
I think that's probably the biggest move they could do, right?

07:19:27.060 --> 07:19:30.660
You smoke, you look for the Urspher, and if you kill him, you're going to have a massive

07:19:30.660 --> 07:19:34.940
number advantage since he's not going to have that buyback to reach on into the fight.

07:19:34.940 --> 07:19:43.420
Initiations still going to be crucial for both sides.

07:19:43.420 --> 07:19:44.420
Flaps also now.

07:19:44.420 --> 07:19:45.820
Switching the build again, right?

07:19:45.820 --> 07:19:51.320
Now he's got an agonist in this game, so looking to build up in the longer teamfights, in particular with these decays.

07:19:54.820 --> 07:19:57.320
Mission, catch again, I'm ready with the setup.

07:19:57.320 --> 07:20:00.820
He looks towards the wall, forced to BKB out in the middle, he will get the call for it.

07:20:00.820 --> 07:20:04.320
Only on tonight's loss, they'll try to take back very quickly, but down to Miotorra.

07:20:04.320 --> 07:20:09.320
Hext is onto Miotorra, Static turns towards the SF, Miotorra put the man to back away.

07:20:09.320 --> 07:20:14.820
Now Triton turns down to the ground, the infest comes in to try and save through Carlos, allows to Carlos to get the BKB up,

07:20:44.820 --> 07:20:49.820
He just didn't die from Satanics. He didn't try to continue the chase, but I'll come to you with the Christ.

07:20:49.820 --> 07:20:52.820
Now we're going to have to be so careful. They bought back for this. Yatoro?

07:20:52.820 --> 07:20:55.820
Yatoro? Yatoro? Yatoro?

07:20:55.820 --> 07:20:59.820
They're still alive! They take down the four of them! All of them just left the line!

07:20:59.820 --> 07:21:01.820
Holy crap!

07:21:01.820 --> 07:21:03.820
What is this outplay?

07:21:03.820 --> 07:21:08.820
A save play is for the spirit coming up with the five-nights in Yatoro,

07:21:08.820 --> 07:21:12.820
driving back up to the fight on barely even 10% HP.

07:21:12.820 --> 07:21:16.320
I think he gets saved from a soul rip in the midst of things.

07:21:16.320 --> 07:21:17.660
I don't know how he survived.

07:21:17.660 --> 07:21:19.900
It's just dancing on the fray of the fight.

07:21:19.900 --> 07:21:22.500
What a play from Yatoro, and the buyback from his team.

07:21:22.500 --> 07:21:23.700
Oh, he pushed it to the limit.

07:21:23.700 --> 07:21:24.500
Yes, there, Yatoro.

07:21:24.500 --> 07:21:25.540
And it pays off.

07:21:25.540 --> 07:21:28.300
And confidence from the team to be joined collapsed.

07:21:28.300 --> 07:21:29.580
His collapse is just building up

07:21:29.580 --> 07:21:31.260
that strength of the decays.

07:21:31.260 --> 07:21:32.460
And this is insane outplay.

07:21:32.460 --> 07:21:36.100
Yatoro literally played with, what, 10% of the fight?

07:21:36.100 --> 07:21:37.260
And even less.

07:21:37.260 --> 07:21:37.780
For what?

07:21:37.780 --> 07:21:38.980
For 50% of the fight is what?

07:21:38.980 --> 07:21:40.100
You're watching this fight.

07:21:40.100 --> 07:21:40.740
This is insane.

07:21:40.740 --> 07:21:46.740
All eyes on Yatoro of how he's playing on the outskirts and allowing his tanky force to give him that information

07:21:46.740 --> 07:21:52.240
I mean after that he trusts so much and his teammates here even at the start with Lyle and Rue going down

07:21:52.240 --> 07:21:58.740
Lyle and Rue with these buybacks say hey the fight is not over we're getting back in there and Yatoro he says

07:21:58.740 --> 07:22:02.740
Okay, he's ready to turn continue the fight he does not run

07:22:02.740 --> 07:22:04.740
We'll see you here

07:22:04.740 --> 07:22:06.740
Absolutely insane

07:22:06.740 --> 07:22:07.740
Look at him just standing his ground

07:22:07.740 --> 07:22:14.740
I think this is SoulRip, right? It saves him here? It is. So the last second SoulRip at the last.

07:22:14.740 --> 07:22:21.740
At the same time the damage was coming in. Absolutely. And Yutaro says, right, if you save me like that, I've got to save the state of the game.

07:22:21.740 --> 07:22:32.740
Ready to find the angle to get back in. Very much knowing that Lala and Rui are going to be able to live long enough to provide Yutaro the chance to get the damage out and allow Spirit to find the team wipe.

07:22:32.740 --> 07:22:35.660
There's a reason these two teams are in the grand finals.

07:22:35.660 --> 07:22:37.300
You're seeing the display from them.

07:22:37.300 --> 07:22:38.300
And you have to feel it.

07:22:38.300 --> 07:22:39.740
I mean, Satanic's like, you've got to be kidding me.

07:22:39.740 --> 07:22:40.580
How is he alive?

07:22:40.580 --> 07:22:41.500
It's not what can you do.

07:22:41.500 --> 07:22:42.000
What can you do?

07:22:42.000 --> 07:22:44.180
That's a what can you do kind of situation.

07:22:44.180 --> 07:22:45.220
Yutaro's doing this.

07:22:45.220 --> 07:22:47.380
Unbelievable stuff.

07:22:47.380 --> 07:22:48.980
Satanic now finished up for Yutaro.

07:22:48.980 --> 07:22:51.540
So he does have that secondary life elapsed.

07:22:51.540 --> 07:22:55.860
Surviving that whole fight, too, has the BKB.

07:22:55.860 --> 07:22:59.460
That was, I could rewatch that replay 15 times,

07:22:59.460 --> 07:23:02.140
because what an absurd team fight.

07:23:02.140 --> 07:23:05.740
from both sides in particular, but my god, the Toro.

07:23:05.740 --> 07:23:07.420
Yeah, and those are the kind of moves

07:23:07.420 --> 07:23:10.580
you've got to be making as a carry to win an international.

07:23:10.580 --> 07:23:12.140
Truly knows they shit's all right.

07:23:12.140 --> 07:23:14.020
Absolutely Owen.

07:23:14.020 --> 07:23:16.940
Number 26 now for a backup to this 4K lead.

07:23:20.300 --> 07:23:22.220
That's a bit interesting too.

07:23:22.220 --> 07:23:24.300
Don't see that one get picked up too often.

07:23:24.300 --> 07:23:25.980
Doesn't take the shadow raise applies a tax.

07:23:25.980 --> 07:23:27.260
I don't mind it.

07:23:27.260 --> 07:23:30.660
And I'll tell you why, because that little bit of a change

07:23:30.660 --> 07:23:32.460
can sort of catch you off guard.

07:23:32.460 --> 07:23:34.700
When you're trying to kind of hold back on the rate

07:23:34.700 --> 07:23:36.540
and the infest, it might surprise you.

07:23:36.540 --> 07:23:38.900
That little bit of a difference on the requiem timing,

07:23:38.900 --> 07:23:40.740
it could trip up even the best of carries.

07:23:40.740 --> 07:23:42.620
I don't think I've seen anybody take this talent

07:23:42.620 --> 07:23:44.460
if it's kind of the other one as a carry.

07:23:44.460 --> 07:23:45.940
And these then sort of moments again

07:23:45.940 --> 07:23:47.820
in the international grand finals

07:23:47.820 --> 07:23:49.660
to do stuff that's gonna be just that

07:23:49.660 --> 07:23:51.900
little bit of a difference in feel and vibe

07:23:51.900 --> 07:23:54.540
that catches the enemy cause off guard.

07:23:54.540 --> 07:23:56.020
This is such an amazing game.

07:23:56.020 --> 07:23:58.420
Best game of the tournament so far here for me.

07:23:58.420 --> 07:24:00.340
40 minutes in, super even.

07:24:00.340 --> 07:24:07.200
Both teams absolutely with a chance as much as that fight was phenomenal for your Toro did obviously mean that they had to use

07:24:07.200 --> 07:24:08.340
It was a lot of buybacks

07:24:08.340 --> 07:24:13.820
It was this can be punished by vision a buyback feel like it's gonna be the name of the game this one right

07:24:13.820 --> 07:24:17.140
Earth spirit did use the last buyback ends of winning the fight this time

07:24:17.140 --> 07:24:19.720
It's bear it with the buyback so could see it go the other way again

07:24:19.720 --> 07:24:23.860
That's the right afterwards as impressive as it is to win the team fight in that fashion

07:24:23.860 --> 07:24:26.020
It's not the way you always want to do it right

07:24:26.020 --> 07:24:32.980
The plan is never to sort of let you carry get so it's sort of as close to death the edge of death as the situation with that viitoria

07:24:32.980 --> 07:24:34.980
That's not always plan a

07:24:35.220 --> 07:24:42.840
And now also next time round if they're able to push him over the edge that little bit more the outcome could be vastly different

07:24:43.740 --> 07:24:50.180
Level 25 starting to get hit life stealer level 25 under lord shadow team and the slaughter and the undying

07:24:50.180 --> 07:24:55.080
So three level 25 cores on the side of spirit so much money on Stankins. He's got pretty much 5k gold

07:24:56.020 --> 07:24:59.620
Because he has to eat the aggonyms and he's still considering what he wants to do if he wants to.

07:24:59.620 --> 07:25:02.020
Or a damage or a fast one. They're gonna see a Toro and he's panicking.

07:25:02.020 --> 07:25:03.020
They're trying to get him straight over the wall.

07:25:03.020 --> 07:25:05.020
He's down, but keep it going. He's on the call. Hasn't been in control here.

07:25:05.020 --> 07:25:07.020
On towards Satanic. A head-tabbing Toro.

07:25:07.020 --> 07:25:08.020
He's trying to push. Panic?

07:25:08.020 --> 07:25:09.020
He's trying to set the Toro.

07:25:09.020 --> 07:25:11.020
But Satanic's bringing the Toro down.

07:25:11.020 --> 07:25:12.020
Oh my God! It's down!

07:25:12.020 --> 07:25:13.020
It's down! It's Toro's down.

07:25:13.020 --> 07:25:16.020
This time, Satanic reigns to breathe.

07:25:16.020 --> 07:25:17.020
Ready to go over the wall.

07:25:17.020 --> 07:25:19.020
Galactus tries to defeat Demi TPL.

07:25:19.020 --> 07:25:20.020
The damage is turned.

07:25:20.020 --> 07:25:21.020
It's turned.

07:25:21.020 --> 07:25:23.020
They try to get the double.

07:25:23.020 --> 07:25:25.900
Oh, and just like that, might be able to push toward the base.

07:25:25.900 --> 07:25:28.940
The Undying Response does have the Ceaseless Thirds available,

07:25:28.940 --> 07:25:31.020
but no Yatoro for 80 seconds.

07:25:31.020 --> 07:25:32.940
I mean, it's always going to be the difference, make a right.

07:25:32.940 --> 07:25:35.740
If they could kill Yatoro at the start of the fight,

07:25:35.740 --> 07:25:36.220
that's a huge difference.

07:25:36.220 --> 07:25:39.260
A much different outcome to these team fights.

07:25:39.260 --> 07:25:41.580
And ninth class now, I think this is the third time

07:25:41.580 --> 07:25:44.060
I've seen him be able to steal Corosapaze.

07:25:44.060 --> 07:25:47.100
So that extra physical damage, it makes the difference.

07:25:47.100 --> 07:25:48.300
Not me, my try for a steal.

07:25:49.340 --> 07:25:51.180
You don't get the chance, they were ready for it.

07:25:53.020 --> 07:26:00.500
They had to outplay pretty hard in that last fight on Spirit with the buybacks, but now truly seeing Satanic able to stand his ground

07:26:00.620 --> 07:26:04.260
He's able to just stick on top of that shadow feed has the damage

07:26:07.580 --> 07:26:14.740
That's a big ages to refresh your shard as well in nine class honestly do not steal another spell keep that corrosive

07:26:14.740 --> 07:26:16.660
Pays it's probably the best one you can get this game

07:26:16.660 --> 07:26:20.940
Yeah, cuz if they get that sort of situation where they can just surround the SF

07:26:20.940 --> 07:26:25.100
That skips just gonna make that situation so much more easier. They will kill him so quickly

07:26:25.420 --> 07:26:27.980
With how much say Danik has ready to take him down

07:26:27.980 --> 07:26:32.300
Especially when he's going for obviously with this Daedalus next he wants to make sure that he pops rage

07:26:32.300 --> 07:26:34.820
He's this SF and your Torah is just dead

07:26:34.820 --> 07:26:39.500
You know, there's no gonna be situation where your Torah can stand and trade back against the life stealer with a Daedalus

07:26:39.500 --> 07:26:40.980
That also was a fight with spirit

07:26:40.980 --> 07:26:45.140
As you said the triple four level 25s not busy with the triple four 25s now

07:26:45.140 --> 07:26:47.660
No one does have that magnetized available for himself

07:26:47.660 --> 07:26:49.660
Static.

07:26:49.660 --> 07:26:53.160
Two seconds till tutorial respawns. They will respect it. They'll start packing away.

07:26:53.160 --> 07:26:54.160
True.

07:26:54.160 --> 07:26:55.660
We find some sort of grab.

07:26:55.660 --> 07:26:57.660
I see them. Great work, Racy.

07:26:57.660 --> 07:27:01.160
Shari's creeping the blink out, but Lali's caught out on the low ground. Has to put the beat.

07:27:01.160 --> 07:27:03.160
He turns, everyone's in a low. But no one gets the beat.

07:27:03.160 --> 07:27:06.160
He'll be able to substitute for a pump. He gets the napkin and no one's gone.

07:27:06.160 --> 07:27:07.660
He gets the core control on the watch.

07:27:07.660 --> 07:27:09.660
Static. Static. Plus the banter.

07:27:09.660 --> 07:27:12.160
Who's considering diving for more? We'll hold back.

07:27:12.160 --> 07:27:14.160
They don't want to chase on high ground. There's this tombstone.

07:27:14.160 --> 07:27:16.160
Still a bit dangerous.

07:27:16.160 --> 07:27:17.120
And for one.

07:27:17.120 --> 07:27:17.620
Flaps.

07:27:17.620 --> 07:27:19.920
It's a 4 at 9,200 HP.

07:27:19.920 --> 07:27:20.840
That's a lot of health.

07:27:20.840 --> 07:27:22.320
They have so much percent damage now.

07:27:22.320 --> 07:27:25.120
I mean, collapse is what he wants to still kind of go for now.

07:27:25.120 --> 07:27:26.680
Chasing them down.

07:27:26.680 --> 07:27:28.040
Nick.

07:27:28.040 --> 07:27:30.640
Also the BKB on the Carlos.

07:27:30.640 --> 07:27:31.320
Not me.

07:27:31.320 --> 07:27:32.520
He tries to get the grab on the satanic,

07:27:32.520 --> 07:27:33.640
but the satanic's ready to turn.

07:27:33.640 --> 07:27:35.240
Straight away, he went back on the fall.

07:27:35.240 --> 07:27:36.400
He'll invest over the wall.

07:27:36.400 --> 07:27:37.440
It's not me, it's not me.

07:27:37.440 --> 07:27:38.280
He's gone.

07:27:38.280 --> 07:27:40.080
The satanic he closed the gap on the yatora yatora.

07:27:40.080 --> 07:27:41.600
He has to separate himself from the silver.

07:27:41.600 --> 07:27:42.320
He tries to turn.

07:27:42.320 --> 07:27:43.120
The path may go.

07:27:43.120 --> 07:27:44.320
He went on towards the life stealer.

07:27:44.320 --> 07:27:45.920
He killed off Night Class.

07:27:45.920 --> 07:27:48.680
Notice though, he's ready to have the goal, Ro!

07:27:48.680 --> 07:27:54.360
God damn, get the goal out of the open, but they take the Aegis out of the hands of Satanic, they breeze down, notice!

07:27:54.860 --> 07:27:57.260
Can they deal with Satanic a second time though?

07:27:57.260 --> 07:28:02.220
Nine-class, ready to reach back in to help out, so Satanic can bring Collapse down.

07:28:02.220 --> 07:28:06.620
They may have got the Aegis, but again, Satanic comes out on top.

07:28:07.000 --> 07:28:11.000
Buybacks after buybacks after buybacks, they've got the numbers to go for it here.

07:28:11.000 --> 07:28:12.660
Collapse is actually going to go for it himself.

07:28:12.660 --> 07:28:14.260
I mean, isn't going to buy back and force them into it.

07:28:14.260 --> 07:28:18.260
They could do big damage. There's three heroes dead on Spirit without the buyback.

07:28:19.760 --> 07:28:21.760
Hitting forward with the catapults.

07:28:21.760 --> 07:28:24.760
They won't be able to retrieve that gem. It does get picked up from the courier.

07:28:24.760 --> 07:28:26.760
So they want to try and push for the third set.

07:28:27.760 --> 07:28:31.260
They don't know that the buyback... Okay, the buyback's actually back up.

07:28:31.260 --> 07:28:33.260
Here, four. Rue on the axe.

07:28:33.260 --> 07:28:34.260
Okay.

07:28:34.260 --> 07:28:36.260
But no buyback.

07:28:36.260 --> 07:28:37.260
On low.

07:28:37.260 --> 07:28:41.760
Go back up. Get the data list finished. Take the outpost. Take the second cure to consider their options.

07:28:41.760 --> 07:28:43.260
They can look for the aggressive play.

07:28:43.260 --> 07:28:48.460
No one is respawning. Might just look for the jump onto Yotaro. He's got BKB at the ready.

07:28:48.460 --> 07:28:49.860
I'm gonna do after control.

07:28:49.860 --> 07:28:54.360
Love this Daveness Pickup. Not something you always see as an item of choice for the Life Stealer.

07:28:54.360 --> 07:28:57.160
But in this matchup, in this game, it's the perfect pick up.

07:28:57.160 --> 07:29:00.660
He was debating which one he wants, but he wants to just be able to rip through Yotaro.

07:29:00.660 --> 07:29:04.660
Because Yotaro doesn't have butterflies, so he can't just go for this hard right click damage item.

07:29:05.660 --> 07:29:07.660
Yotaro is starting to think about going for that butterfly.

07:29:07.660 --> 07:29:08.760
I mean, that's the thing. He sees that.

07:29:08.760 --> 07:29:13.760
There's going to be this window where ideally Vision wants to bring the fight to Yatora before the butterflies online.

07:29:13.760 --> 07:29:17.260
When that gets picked up, things get a little more complicated again.

07:29:17.260 --> 07:29:22.760
I feel like Vision has a window right now when this underlord respawns to potentially just go for the mega creeps.

07:29:22.760 --> 07:29:27.760
I mean for sure, they know that Spirit's buyback situation is going to be in shambles.

07:29:27.760 --> 07:29:32.760
Nobody really having the buyback available on Spirit. Yeah, Yatora, he's going to spend up.

07:29:32.760 --> 07:29:38.920
Gastu needs every little bit as we can see they need to outplay in these teamfights on the side of Spirit

07:29:39.520 --> 07:29:46.320
And maybe that signing will be the difference, mate. Sure. There's the Daenus there, but Yatoru has got the butterfly to respond

07:29:46.320 --> 07:29:50.520
He's got that evasion. Let's see if he sees it. He's now also good to see the lights here

07:29:50.520 --> 07:29:57.840
I mean that maybe himself too. He has the luxury to switch up his build, Satanic and he's sitting with 5.6k gold in the bank still

07:29:57.840 --> 07:30:01.160
Okay, so can make alterations smoking up spirit

07:30:01.160 --> 07:30:05.200
They're probably trying to catch vision off guard before this is five-man unit revision

07:30:05.240 --> 07:30:07.840
They're running as five even with no one noticed

07:30:07.840 --> 07:30:13.000
I love that he's joining him with this because he has the hex he has that it's disabled to potentially just blow up the door

07:30:14.040 --> 07:30:16.060
And we just have to be aware spirit

07:30:16.600 --> 07:30:19.800
zero buybacks at their availability at the moment

07:30:21.000 --> 07:30:27.800
No one a bloodstone a cheese multiple lives a refresher now for the underlord the fight is going to be so

07:30:27.840 --> 07:30:30.760
So far tonight, they're gonna be long and messy.

07:30:30.760 --> 07:30:32.840
There's gonna be so many of these pits.

07:30:32.840 --> 07:30:33.840
No one.

07:30:33.840 --> 07:30:34.840
Gonna try and check out the situation.

07:30:34.840 --> 07:30:37.840
Now we'll turn straight with the cross because if that missed the call comes in.

07:30:37.840 --> 07:30:39.840
Yatoro bringing no one down, let it take it out.

07:30:39.840 --> 07:30:43.840
He'll jump forward, looking more slow, but he has to start backing away as the range

07:30:43.840 --> 07:30:44.840
comes to an end.

07:30:44.840 --> 07:30:46.840
Yatoro slides forward, wants to chase vision out of the base.

07:30:46.840 --> 07:30:48.840
The goal is set to keep notice, protected.

07:30:48.840 --> 07:30:52.840
He'll jump forward, over with nine blasts, bushwhack to lock down the rubik.

07:30:52.840 --> 07:30:54.840
He'll try and lift himself away.

07:30:54.840 --> 07:30:58.840
continue to chase, nine glass out, arrest the vision, they're out of it.

07:30:58.840 --> 07:31:03.840
Spirit is so good at recognizing how they can fight and no one not giving respect to the damage.

07:31:03.840 --> 07:31:06.840
I think he thought, because, oh I have been fast, I have cheese, I have bloodstone,

07:31:06.840 --> 07:31:08.840
I have enough to be able to take through all this.

07:31:08.840 --> 07:31:11.840
No you do not my friend, the damage from Yatoro is there.

07:31:11.840 --> 07:31:14.840
I mean you maybe underestimate the fact that Yatoro has this butterfly

07:31:14.840 --> 07:31:17.840
and the damage has to stepped up that much more with that pickup.

07:31:17.840 --> 07:31:20.840
The fact that he spent up, you know, for going the buyback gold

07:31:20.840 --> 07:31:23.840
so that he could have this next big pickup for the defense.

07:31:23.840 --> 07:31:30.840
Look how much damage she did, right? 5600 from the saddle feed in just a four second window.

07:31:30.840 --> 07:31:34.840
A lot of DPS on.

07:31:34.840 --> 07:31:39.840
Continue to deliver, 50 minutes in, just a 7k lead for the side of vision.

07:31:39.840 --> 07:31:45.840
Spirit showing they can fight even without the buybacks in that fight.

07:31:45.840 --> 07:31:47.840
They want to go for more.

07:31:47.840 --> 07:31:49.840
Full minute without 9 class.

07:31:49.840 --> 07:31:50.800
Talk to you Toro.

07:31:52.720 --> 07:31:55.720
I mean if a hero does show they can't talk to him.

07:31:55.720 --> 07:31:58.920
Satanic, a little bit harder to grab, but the other heroes for sure.

07:31:58.920 --> 07:32:00.240
And you do see Satanic.

07:32:00.240 --> 07:32:02.040
He queues up the MkB, immediately.

07:32:02.040 --> 07:32:03.240
It's going to be needed.

07:32:04.240 --> 07:32:05.360
And what's going to be?

07:32:05.360 --> 07:32:07.120
What? Arm out for the MkB?

07:32:08.800 --> 07:32:09.640
Absolutely.

07:32:09.640 --> 07:32:10.800
That's the answer at least.

07:32:10.800 --> 07:32:12.920
Ah well, let's try to play with our faves boots or is that?

07:32:12.920 --> 07:32:14.280
No, you need to do it in no way.

07:32:14.280 --> 07:32:14.800
Yeah.

07:32:17.320 --> 07:32:18.040
And this game.

07:32:18.040 --> 07:32:23.040
So close here. Both teams playing so beautiful.

07:32:26.040 --> 07:32:31.040
Execution, absolutely everything here at this point. As you saw, Gukala did turn to pick up some of these Aeon discs.

07:32:31.040 --> 07:32:36.040
But there's always the answer. We've seen this nullifier from Laurel a couple of times now. Really tripping them up.

07:32:36.040 --> 07:32:43.040
That's why you didn't see no one selling that Ghostsefter. It's been some time recently, of course, but, yeah, they have the answer for these Ghostsefters in quite a few moments.

07:32:43.040 --> 07:32:50.040
I think they'll just go for a quick little tormentor here on the side of Spirit.

07:32:50.040 --> 07:32:53.040
This slide needs to go on its...

07:32:53.040 --> 07:32:55.040
Alright. Pretty decent one.

07:32:55.040 --> 07:32:58.040
And on a bad one.

07:32:58.040 --> 07:33:00.040
Hanging on to the greedy Stilford Roo.

07:33:00.040 --> 07:33:02.040
Looking to still get that increased greater healing lotuses.

07:33:02.040 --> 07:33:04.040
How many of these do we have across the board here?

07:33:04.040 --> 07:33:06.040
It's just... okay it's two.

07:33:06.040 --> 07:33:09.040
So Spirit, have these extra heals to pump into your Toro vision,

07:33:09.040 --> 07:33:12.040
not having those lotuses at the moment.

07:33:13.040 --> 07:33:16.800
And damage bottom. Oh and ooooh that's a big one.

07:33:16.800 --> 07:33:22.320
And they still have the bottle right so they can ensure that they hold it for the prime

07:33:22.320 --> 07:33:24.320
moment in the fight. No one's going to keep it.

07:33:24.320 --> 07:33:27.920
No one's, okay. He won't sift right. I wonder if maybe they would have given it to Satanic

07:33:27.920 --> 07:33:31.600
but I'll give you the case. No one of course has this Ursprit. Still does a crazy amount

07:33:31.600 --> 07:33:34.560
of damage. As long as he doesn't die at start of fight. So he needs to be a little

07:33:34.560 --> 07:33:40.480
bit more careful how he just rolls in. Either that or Knight class has to be there for

07:33:40.480 --> 07:33:42.320
for the lift bailout if he does roll for that one.

07:33:42.320 --> 07:33:43.280
Because that is the thing, right?

07:33:43.280 --> 07:33:45.840
No one, he does have to be the one that initiates.

07:33:45.840 --> 07:33:49.000
Nobody else is really gonna be going in first out of the line.

07:33:49.000 --> 07:33:51.000
They can use this just to fiends get to give vision,

07:33:51.000 --> 07:33:53.000
to give the information, that's the key thing.

07:33:53.000 --> 07:33:54.600
So for me, no one in that last one,

07:33:54.600 --> 07:33:56.360
you kind of just yoloed without vision.

07:33:56.360 --> 07:33:57.680
I think next one, you throw the fiends

07:33:57.680 --> 07:33:59.200
get at least to get some information,

07:33:59.200 --> 07:34:00.440
and then you can maybe pick and choose

07:34:00.440 --> 07:34:02.560
if you do want to roll in.

07:34:02.560 --> 07:34:04.040
As you see, they have the damage one.

07:34:04.040 --> 07:34:05.600
They will blow him up in one shot.

07:34:05.600 --> 07:34:06.680
We will just play call him.

07:34:06.680 --> 07:34:09.000
Laura will just parosa basic.

07:34:09.000 --> 07:34:11.000
I don't know what Sphere is now. It is the gate.

07:34:11.000 --> 07:34:13.000
He's trying to start things off. Collapse.

07:34:13.000 --> 07:34:15.000
Lot of damage building up. Look at the corner of the side.

07:34:15.000 --> 07:34:17.000
Me too.

07:34:17.000 --> 07:34:20.000
Katora is seeing if there's going to be an angle to get in on this to try and help collapse out.

07:34:20.000 --> 07:34:22.000
They're trying to wrap around, but collapse. He's already gone.

07:34:22.000 --> 07:34:24.000
Satanic takes him out very quickly.

07:34:24.000 --> 07:34:26.000
He's got Cecil's Third though. He did use Buyback before,

07:34:26.000 --> 07:34:28.000
but he can't rejoin it to the fray with these boots travel.

07:34:28.000 --> 07:34:32.000
Box two in fact. It's okay. TP right into the middle of the gate.

07:34:32.000 --> 07:34:34.000
TST. He probably tells his team,

07:34:34.000 --> 07:34:36.000
guys don't help me. I know I don't have Buyback,

07:34:36.000 --> 07:34:38.000
but I've got the Cecil's Thirds built in.

07:34:38.000 --> 07:34:44.000
Roshan is back on both teams. Take this down very quickly.

07:34:46.000 --> 07:34:48.000
Oh, a big steal actually. Didn't notice this one.

07:34:48.000 --> 07:34:50.000
9th class has the Tombstone with the Shard.

07:34:50.000 --> 07:34:53.000
So even he can bail out and move in different ways.

07:34:53.000 --> 07:34:55.000
Now he can lift, pull them out. Tombstone protect.

07:34:55.000 --> 07:34:58.000
No one is well tuned for these scenarios.

07:34:59.000 --> 07:35:04.000
Vision, they're gonna try and see if they can get a grab outside on the map.

07:35:04.000 --> 07:35:07.160
map kind of blocking that they're doing the road should potentially get a catch

07:35:07.160 --> 07:35:11.840
on top of the word the palace stepping forward trying to protect his ward

07:35:11.840 --> 07:35:16.240
we'll get it up and they're gonna top the tombstone here very aggressive just

07:35:16.240 --> 07:35:19.240
sort of hold this area and make it that much more difficult for spirits

07:35:19.240 --> 07:35:25.040
to try and get anywhere near to the road yes we'll start the roast

07:35:25.320 --> 07:35:31.480
we're gonna look for a wraparound plate to get over here it's dangerous

07:35:31.480 --> 07:35:38.840
The try, bottom to strong rune and arcane rune, not me, in a very impressive position

07:35:38.840 --> 07:35:39.840
to give some information.

07:35:39.840 --> 07:35:42.080
He's super deep but he's kinda getting away with it.

07:35:42.080 --> 07:35:46.120
I like that play from notice, tanks the sharpshooter just so they don't see how low that roaches

07:35:46.120 --> 07:35:47.120
even.

07:35:47.120 --> 07:35:48.120
And now satanic.

07:35:48.120 --> 07:35:53.760
Let's get this Aegis, has the nullifier himself as well, he'll just stick onto some

07:35:53.760 --> 07:35:55.920
of these pesky targets.

07:35:55.920 --> 07:36:00.520
These go-sectors won't be as strong now at this point.

07:36:00.520 --> 07:36:05.200
Hang on to a lot of gold here. He has not really increased too much in the last few moments

07:36:05.200 --> 07:36:09.560
I mean, what is the item he's can see he's thinking about I saw him cute like two different things, so

07:36:11.960 --> 07:36:16.200
What thorn can catch them off guard here, maybe he does just do some type of armor item

07:36:16.560 --> 07:36:18.560
See what the option is gonna be for Laurel

07:36:18.920 --> 07:36:23.320
Because he's gonna he's been just been an axe he can be billifier for 30 minutes

07:36:24.040 --> 07:36:26.040
He came in

07:36:26.040 --> 07:36:28.840
I mean, just look great.

07:36:28.840 --> 07:36:30.840
Now, Blink, same.

07:36:33.840 --> 07:36:37.840
Ages for four minutes, vision looking to hunt.

07:36:37.840 --> 07:36:42.040
Spirit, looking to just avoid and just play for the high ground team.

07:36:42.040 --> 07:36:43.840
They have to protect this last set of racks.

07:36:43.840 --> 07:36:46.340
They don't want to get caught outside by any means in the fight.

07:36:46.340 --> 07:36:48.840
Very close to having all their buybacks back online.

07:36:48.840 --> 07:36:50.040
How long?

07:36:50.040 --> 07:36:51.340
Not pretty much happy.

07:36:51.340 --> 07:36:54.340
Yeah, now 300 gold left for the last, if you can't find that.

07:36:54.340 --> 07:36:58.340
Just need one kill on the fighter, a couple of these creeps that are coming into the base.

07:36:58.340 --> 07:37:05.340
Go watch out for those, because we've been seeing so far this game. Both teams very ready to come in with buybacks to throw extra lives into the action.

07:37:05.340 --> 07:37:11.340
Refresher shard, it is on no one now, so it does have insane amounts of magnetize if you can keep it spreading, it will last forever.

07:37:11.340 --> 07:37:13.340
See what they can do with the push-up vision.

07:37:16.340 --> 07:37:19.340
Racks, slowly but surely starting to fall.

07:37:19.340 --> 07:37:23.340
All this pops the BKB himself, and we'll get, we'll have to deal with that nullifier so far.

07:37:23.340 --> 07:37:25.340
Just trying to see what he can force out of Spirit.

07:37:25.340 --> 07:37:27.340
Holdings are dropping me. He's doing a decent amount here.

07:37:27.340 --> 07:37:30.340
It's going to get caught by the call, but the two stone saves will be there.

07:37:30.340 --> 07:37:32.340
Magical ties are starting to spread.

07:37:32.340 --> 07:37:35.340
And they have to start backing off. I mean, the Carlos has pretty much just taken these racks down on his own.

07:37:35.340 --> 07:37:37.340
They're going to get the backers.

07:37:37.340 --> 07:37:40.340
They can't get him off the racks that the Barracks have taken.

07:37:40.340 --> 07:37:43.340
A mega creep out here. 14 vision.

07:37:43.340 --> 07:37:46.340
Super clever way to go for the push. Not so ecstatic at all.

07:37:46.340 --> 07:37:48.340
Just, okay, you want to go for the Carlos and go for it.

07:37:48.340 --> 07:37:50.340
Because it's a hard call to make right now.

07:37:50.340 --> 07:37:52.340
You don't want to over commit onto the enchantress,

07:37:52.340 --> 07:37:56.180
the same giant that's the enchantress taking your birds I like this much better

07:37:56.180 --> 07:37:59.460
right instead of knowing to see all over all again play it slow you don't need

07:37:59.460 --> 07:38:03.740
the force too hard there spirit let's see if they come back from megas we saw

07:38:03.740 --> 07:38:07.500
one it's part of it that I think that's the only time it was done right and I

07:38:07.500 --> 07:38:10.340
wanted I was in a long time I was talking backstage they were actually

07:38:10.340 --> 07:38:14.060
saying in multiple ti's we have not seen many mega creep come back so spirit

07:38:14.060 --> 07:38:17.260
can do this in this type of way especially especially nowadays when it

07:38:17.260 --> 07:38:20.900
seems harder than ever oh yeah hydro breath now started get picked up to

07:38:20.900 --> 07:38:23.820
Toro looking for that extra bit of damage to go through these taking course

07:38:25.980 --> 07:38:33.220
25s across the board even the support started to get it. We're getting towards these later stages all in three minutes until tier five neutrals

07:38:34.900 --> 07:38:38.260
This is still has ages for two minutes. They want to take advantage of it

07:38:40.780 --> 07:38:42.380
Night class

07:38:42.380 --> 07:38:45.340
Hang on to this tombstone. That's an evil with the mega creeps

07:38:45.340 --> 07:38:49.340
It's going to be hard to sort of push this game over the edge.

07:38:49.340 --> 07:38:51.340
It was able to buy back to the spirit, have available.

07:38:51.340 --> 07:38:53.340
Lol, he can't be in a run.

07:38:53.340 --> 07:38:55.340
They've put their hands on the Colossus.

07:38:55.340 --> 07:38:56.340
Colossus, he died.

07:38:56.340 --> 07:38:57.340
Brick could do.

07:38:57.340 --> 07:38:58.340
He'll be able to get to the tombstone.

07:38:58.340 --> 07:39:00.340
Satan is going to have to use the rage though to take the tombstone out.

07:39:00.340 --> 07:39:01.340
We'll succeed.

07:39:01.340 --> 07:39:02.340
Brick Colossus out of the fight.

07:39:02.340 --> 07:39:03.340
They've got Colossus.

07:39:03.340 --> 07:39:04.340
They did lose to Colossus in return.

07:39:04.340 --> 07:39:05.340
And it lifted out.

07:39:05.340 --> 07:39:07.340
One pass to able to take him away to safety.

07:39:07.340 --> 07:39:08.340
Magnetize is building up.

07:39:08.340 --> 07:39:09.340
He's keeping it going.

07:39:09.340 --> 07:39:12.340
Yatora is getting very, very low here off to the side.

07:39:12.340 --> 07:39:16.340
They'll heal him up and provide him with the Lotus. He'll heal back up with the Satanic.

07:39:16.340 --> 07:39:20.340
Pieback did have to come out here though from collapse to try and continue this hole.

07:39:20.340 --> 07:39:23.340
So back up and reset. They're happy with that.

07:39:23.340 --> 07:39:28.340
Kind of magnetized plus the mega creeps were literally killing Yatorov.

07:39:30.340 --> 07:39:36.340
Each and every Pieback that they can get out is a step closer to being able to close this game to up vision.

07:39:36.340 --> 07:39:39.460
Oh, he lost a little bit away his career there, a bit of bolt.

07:39:41.940 --> 07:39:43.460
One minute left on Aegis.

07:39:44.340 --> 07:39:48.500
He said, yeah, Bi-Backs have been the name of the game, so the lab's not having it.

07:39:48.500 --> 07:39:50.740
He will, fortunately, though, 30 seconds.

07:39:50.740 --> 07:39:54.100
He does have Cecil's third, so he has that kind of built-in Bi-Back for himself.

07:39:54.100 --> 07:39:55.460
That's a rough one there for Lall, though.

07:39:55.460 --> 07:39:58.180
Spending up all the heart and losing the courier

07:39:58.180 --> 07:40:02.900
so won't even get the benefit of taking this risk to put the Bi-Back to the side.

07:40:02.900 --> 07:40:03.940
He lost his heart.

07:40:03.940 --> 07:40:05.540
It's gone. The courier sniped.

07:40:05.540 --> 07:40:07.540
That's three minutes without it.

07:40:09.340 --> 07:40:11.340
That was in the toilet, really sad.

07:40:14.740 --> 07:40:18.740
I'm looking the saddest 59 inventory, but you're looking it without that career, of course.

07:40:20.740 --> 07:40:23.940
Lines being drawn, satanic tank, let the lades force in.

07:40:23.940 --> 07:40:26.240
We've got 50 seconds until tier 5 neutrals.

07:40:26.240 --> 07:40:29.440
They could set up for a potential gank to fight one of the Spirit Heroes

07:40:29.440 --> 07:40:31.140
when they are looking for those neutrals as well.

07:40:31.140 --> 07:40:33.140
Since they do have the fiends game,

07:40:33.140 --> 07:40:35.140
a lot of global potential.

07:40:35.140 --> 07:40:41.220
and the buybacks. It's something to keep looking at here. They're going to have so many numbers on the side and vision.

07:40:42.580 --> 07:40:44.980
Still not in too much of a rush vision. They can take this

07:40:46.100 --> 07:40:48.100
bit of the game pretty safely.

07:40:48.420 --> 07:40:54.580
They don't have to jump high ground anytime soon. Just finish this next round of items. This will now force the Tannick.

07:40:54.580 --> 07:40:56.580
He is six-slotted.

07:40:57.900 --> 07:41:01.300
Getting harder and harder for Yatora to play as part in his teamfights.

07:41:01.300 --> 07:41:06.820
He's done a great job up until this point, but against the mega creeps and against the items now

07:41:07.420 --> 07:41:13.320
They're online for satanic the matchup's not easy to play because he's all the damage well for visit

07:41:13.320 --> 07:41:17.900
There's a lot of fixed damage coming a collapse. They get the setup roll forward straight away. They're in on a collapse

07:41:17.900 --> 07:41:23.340
He's out five back still on cooldown. He's the third. Okay, so he's got this final life really

07:41:23.860 --> 07:41:25.100
Toro

07:41:25.100 --> 07:41:28.340
Looking for an angle to catch nine class but the concept is there

07:41:31.300 --> 07:41:47.300
They're trying to take fights on their own terms on Spirit Vision, they're trying to take fights on their own terms as well too with the patience as they're taking, stepping back 60 minutes, let's see what they find.

07:41:47.300 --> 07:41:55.300
One minute until the heart is available again for Lyle, and we've got to keep ours on your tour, it's got a lot of money.

07:41:55.300 --> 07:42:00.300
So just sort of a question of how he's going to shift up the build.

07:42:00.300 --> 07:42:01.300
See them?

07:42:01.300 --> 07:42:02.300
What?

07:42:02.300 --> 07:42:03.300
They're chasing them outside in base.

07:42:03.300 --> 07:42:04.300
They get the call of war.

07:42:04.300 --> 07:42:05.300
They have the damage though.

07:42:05.300 --> 07:42:07.300
They're going to try and focus on first B.

07:42:07.300 --> 07:42:09.300
This keeps him safe for years to be getting it.

07:42:09.300 --> 07:42:10.300
All the way to the left.

07:42:10.300 --> 07:42:11.300
They're on top of him.

07:42:11.300 --> 07:42:12.300
The heals though.

07:42:12.300 --> 07:42:14.300
Yatora backs up to bring in full HB.

07:42:14.300 --> 07:42:18.300
This time, Yatora wins the battle against Saitani.

07:42:18.300 --> 07:42:19.300
It gets done.

07:42:19.300 --> 07:42:20.300
The base, the creeps.

07:42:20.300 --> 07:42:21.300
The creeps are doing it.

07:42:21.300 --> 07:42:22.300
They go back to the front.

07:42:22.300 --> 07:42:23.300
They might just do it.

07:42:23.300 --> 07:42:24.300
The TP back to the hold.

07:42:24.300 --> 07:42:32.300
They'll get the creeps off the base in time, they'll kill up to Kales, but my goodness, that was a little bit too close for comfort, that's all.

07:42:32.300 --> 07:42:35.300
The Ancient pulling incredibly long.

07:42:35.300 --> 07:42:40.300
Oh, and they used the flip as well too, there can just be a position where they just buy back and all in for it.

07:42:40.300 --> 07:42:43.300
We'll see if they do something in line with that.

07:42:43.300 --> 07:42:47.300
Anybody got a Crimson Guard on the side of Spirit, they need one desperately right now.

07:42:47.300 --> 07:42:49.300
They're gonna have to make that purchase.

07:42:49.300 --> 07:42:50.300
On me?

07:42:50.300 --> 07:42:51.300
On bottom.

07:42:51.300 --> 07:42:59.640
Over the call, they've got enough to burst through in 9-class though, he's been noticed by his side here, we'll get the lift up, through.

07:42:59.640 --> 07:43:03.040
Can he finish 9-class off the battle? I'm just stacking up, he will!

07:43:03.740 --> 07:43:04.940
Grape you're picked up here.

07:43:04.940 --> 07:43:08.780
It's absolutely required, there's the Crimson for collapse.

07:43:08.780 --> 07:43:14.740
Okay, they've got some of these tools, but look at them waiting, they can just fiendscape in and just haul in.

07:43:14.740 --> 07:43:16.140
They really could.

07:43:16.840 --> 07:43:19.040
And I think they might just fiend so...

07:43:19.040 --> 07:43:20.640
What am I? Damage to Toro.

07:43:20.640 --> 07:43:22.000
But is it enough?

07:43:22.000 --> 07:43:23.240
This game is absolutely insane.

07:43:23.240 --> 07:43:25.360
Tan, Spirit really turned this around.

07:43:25.360 --> 07:43:26.960
That's been mega creeped.

07:43:26.960 --> 07:43:30.360
Their A should fall down to nearly 10% of his HP.

07:43:30.360 --> 07:43:33.080
No fortification left for Spirit.

07:43:33.080 --> 07:43:34.520
Who's got the Crimson? It's collapsed too.

07:43:34.520 --> 07:43:36.160
So it's a very strong Crimson guard.

07:43:36.160 --> 07:43:39.000
If he pops the flesh golem, he pops the Crimson,

07:43:39.000 --> 07:43:40.800
it's going to block almost all the damage

07:43:40.800 --> 07:43:42.320
that they're going to be able to dish through it.

07:43:42.320 --> 07:43:44.720
Crimson also purchased from Notice.

07:43:44.720 --> 07:43:46.080
Both teams.

07:43:46.080 --> 07:43:47.440
And on the plus side for Spirit,

07:43:47.440 --> 07:43:51.840
It's only really Satanic that can tear through the ancient.

07:43:51.840 --> 07:43:53.840
Nobody else is taking too crazy or...

07:43:53.840 --> 07:43:55.240
Sure, that's true.

07:43:55.240 --> 07:43:58.040
So if they keep tracking, keep hold of the lifestealer,

07:43:58.040 --> 07:44:00.840
they'll have a chance at keeping their ancient alive.

07:44:00.840 --> 07:44:01.640
Oh my God.

07:44:01.640 --> 07:44:05.440
It is gonna start healing, so it looks like they can't just fully all in for it here just yet.

07:44:05.440 --> 07:44:06.840
Rue is also looking at the positioning.

07:44:06.840 --> 07:44:09.840
Rue is like, okay, I'm the BKB Pearson call.

07:44:09.840 --> 07:44:12.040
I'm the answer if they do try to go for it here.

07:44:12.040 --> 07:44:14.640
Collapses the answer to protect your Toro.

07:44:14.640 --> 07:44:18.800
Swift blink, Divide Rapier, Stygian Desolator with the Audacious.

07:44:18.800 --> 07:44:20.640
Oh my goodness, my God.

07:44:20.640 --> 07:44:21.840
I gotta stand back up.

07:44:21.840 --> 07:44:24.720
I mean, these heroes, something we're gonna die and eat, like, two, three hits.

07:44:24.720 --> 07:44:25.840
Yeah, I gotta stand back up.

07:44:25.840 --> 07:44:28.240
Like, yeah, you gotta watch out for the Toros moves.

07:44:28.240 --> 07:44:29.920
Level 30's been hit as well, too.

07:44:29.920 --> 07:44:32.320
I mean, if they get their way out of the situation

07:44:32.320 --> 07:44:34.080
in the Grand Finals of the International,

07:44:34.080 --> 07:44:35.360
this is gonna be insane.

07:44:35.360 --> 07:44:39.280
Frontier Spirit, it still looks like they're absolutely against all the odds there.

07:44:39.280 --> 07:44:42.240
Because Vision, they must feel so close

07:44:42.240 --> 07:44:44.240
to being able to get this game to victory.

07:44:44.240 --> 07:44:48.800
Two minutes left on the glyph. The lines are drawn. All the lanes started to get forced in.

07:44:48.800 --> 07:44:49.360
There we go.

07:44:50.240 --> 07:44:54.320
Vision ready to put an end to this game too.

07:44:54.320 --> 07:44:57.920
Ken Small makes not me trying to shove out the waves. Mike got caught.

07:44:57.920 --> 07:44:58.400
He is.

07:44:58.400 --> 07:44:59.600
They've got him in the hex.

07:44:59.600 --> 07:45:02.160
And he does not. Oh he does. He has to go for buyback.

07:45:02.160 --> 07:45:02.800
So not me.

07:45:03.440 --> 07:45:04.800
We'll be ready to return.

07:45:04.800 --> 07:45:06.320
Pins have gone in. Backdoor is gone.

07:45:06.320 --> 07:45:06.800
And here it is.

07:45:06.800 --> 07:45:08.960
They're getting the gate on towards Slava.

07:45:08.960 --> 07:45:11.280
They get the lift up and force out the BKB.

07:45:11.280 --> 07:45:12.880
Nitorin ready to present himself.

07:45:12.880 --> 07:45:13.520
Turns up.

07:45:14.240 --> 07:45:17.640
Active Ties. They're going here by no one. Big damage.

07:45:17.640 --> 07:45:19.540
Also, no one to have to roll away.

07:45:19.540 --> 07:45:20.840
Active Ties spreading.

07:45:20.840 --> 07:45:22.340
The escape. I mean, Vision's approaching.

07:45:22.340 --> 07:45:23.840
Hit, Tori's getting very low. He's going to put the BKB.

07:45:23.840 --> 07:45:25.840
He has to heal up on the back of the creeps.

07:45:25.840 --> 07:45:27.440
He's had to use that pretty early.

07:45:27.440 --> 07:45:29.840
So he's heading ready to now close it on towards him.

07:45:29.840 --> 07:45:31.840
The pit dropped down onto the wall.

07:45:31.840 --> 07:45:34.640
Yotaro, roll ball for no one. Yotaro caught it.

07:45:34.640 --> 07:45:36.440
That's done. He's done.

07:45:36.440 --> 07:45:38.140
This game, look at the VR.

07:45:38.140 --> 07:45:40.440
Reaction from A6 Bones.

07:45:40.440 --> 07:45:42.540
Vision's close-up game two.

07:45:42.540 --> 07:45:45.580
It's one to one here in the graph file!

07:45:45.580 --> 07:45:47.580
My god, what a game two!

07:45:47.580 --> 07:45:50.080
Oh, and we've got three more games potentially!

07:45:50.080 --> 07:45:54.380
What a step up from Vision, very much showing the game one!

07:45:54.380 --> 07:45:56.080
It was just a draft, this game.

07:45:56.080 --> 07:45:57.580
What the hell is this strategy?

07:45:57.580 --> 07:46:00.580
This game two, they turn up, they come to play.

07:46:00.580 --> 07:46:03.380
Shaw at the start, we see Spirit popping up again.

07:46:03.380 --> 07:46:05.980
Yatora is SF, looking to get out of control.

07:46:05.980 --> 07:46:09.180
And still a very impressive KDA, but it doesn't matter.

07:46:09.180 --> 07:46:14.460
team vision with the itemization with the plays this time around and the recovery no one was having

07:46:14.460 --> 07:46:19.420
a very slow start on his airspirit but at the end he had to be the one to go in heaven notice very

07:46:19.420 --> 07:46:23.820
much making the calls of when to start the fight and they chose the right times they made the

07:46:23.820 --> 07:46:29.420
right progression they get the win it's one to one here with team vision taking game two

07:46:31.500 --> 07:46:37.340
everything was so perfect for vision it all ended up coming together for themselves and we

07:46:37.340 --> 07:46:39.340
the game. I'm so impressed

07:46:39.340 --> 07:46:41.340
with how they were able to

07:46:41.340 --> 07:46:43.340
keep their composer, especially

07:46:43.340 --> 07:46:44.340
when it comes to pushing high

07:46:44.340 --> 07:46:45.340
ground. When you get into this

07:46:45.340 --> 07:46:46.340
position, you're pushing it. You're

07:46:46.340 --> 07:46:47.340
at the advantage and you think

07:46:47.340 --> 07:46:48.340
it should be easy, but at the

07:46:48.340 --> 07:46:50.340
end of the day it isn't and too

07:46:50.340 --> 07:46:52.340
many times at once if you go

07:46:52.340 --> 07:46:54.340
all in that game slips out of

07:46:54.340 --> 07:46:56.340
your hand. So massive props to

07:46:56.340 --> 07:46:58.340
vision how they tackle that.

07:46:58.340 --> 07:47:00.340
So I'm going to go ahead and

07:47:00.340 --> 07:47:01.340
I'm going to go ahead and

07:47:01.340 --> 07:47:03.340
I'm going to go ahead and I'm

07:47:03.340 --> 07:47:04.340
going to go ahead and I'm

07:47:04.340 --> 07:47:05.340
going to go ahead and I'm

07:47:05.340 --> 07:47:06.340
going to go ahead and I'm

07:47:06.340 --> 07:47:10.380
they tackled that. Yeah Spirit just got a little bit cocky and it only takes a

07:47:10.380 --> 07:47:14.140
couple of fights before Earth Spirit's inevitability kicks in. He starts getting

07:47:14.140 --> 07:47:17.780
the levels up to 25. It's nearer and nearer and once it arrives you've got some

07:47:17.780 --> 07:47:21.340
big problems that you do not have answers for. The lifestealer as well,

07:47:21.340 --> 07:47:24.980
right? I mean he did get countered online pretty hard and it was a very

07:47:24.980 --> 07:47:29.180
difficult start for Satanic but as this game progressed it looked like it

07:47:29.180 --> 07:47:32.180
was impossible to fight into this. I mean this fight here was so beautiful

07:47:32.180 --> 07:47:35.620
because Team Spirit created a situation out of nowhere

07:47:35.620 --> 07:47:39.700
essentially, but this is where it started to look really good for team vision. This is where

07:47:39.700 --> 07:47:43.860
it started even though they lost this fight, where I started to think, oh wow, I don't know how Dyer's

07:47:43.860 --> 07:47:48.580
gonna win this. I mean, if it takes all of this for you to win a team fight, you know the situation

07:47:48.580 --> 07:47:53.460
isn't really great because there's only so many times you can have, you know, the aetoro greatest

07:47:53.460 --> 07:47:57.220
player in the world probably do these things. There's only so many times he's going to be

07:47:57.220 --> 07:48:01.460
able to do it in a team fight. But honestly, like, I think what's really cool here, and

07:48:01.460 --> 07:48:04.660
we talked about earlier in this tournament, but the resilience that they show, right,

07:48:04.660 --> 07:48:09.300
They're getting countered in lanes. They're playing up against all this pressure, but they're just biting their time

07:48:09.300 --> 07:48:15.780
They're trying to contest whatever moments they can find whatever small opening they can see and eventually team vision managed to find like

07:48:16.060 --> 07:48:22.000
Just enough of these like trades in these early game fights where the game drags on and spirit can't close the game out

07:48:22.000 --> 07:48:27.000
And that allows them to have a pathway back into the game once a panic finally finishes up all the items that he needs

07:48:27.600 --> 07:48:33.760
Noticed on that underlord to me was the absolute standout this tournament. I'm not just this tournament with this game

07:48:33.760 --> 07:48:37.980
I mean those circles of death that he was drop dropping in the late game with the refresher

07:48:37.980 --> 07:48:42.600
It felt like there was no way to navigate the way that team spirit one that beautiful fight in the triangle

07:48:42.600 --> 07:48:45.420
They can't do that when the ground is essentially denied from them

07:48:45.420 --> 07:48:51.540
He wouldn't allow them to roam around and look for openings and that percentage-based damage was really cooking as the game progressed

07:48:51.540 --> 07:48:53.760
He helped his composure. He found openings

07:48:53.760 --> 07:48:59.780
He got that triple kill in the bot lane when spirit overextended and he to me was the rock for team vision

07:48:59.780 --> 07:49:05.160
Yeah, I mean they made a very specific choice whenever they swap this axe to five and I'm dying to offline

07:49:05.160 --> 07:49:07.120
You're saying hey our scaling is gonna be a little bit worse

07:49:07.120 --> 07:49:09.140
We've got a lot of heroes to clump up in one spot

07:49:09.140 --> 07:49:14.820
We've got one shadow feet who's gonna deal all the damage and you can see is more and more time passes that there is risk

07:49:14.820 --> 07:49:17.540
Involved in that you try to temple them. You've got a little sloppy

07:49:17.540 --> 07:49:22.700
I think the key word Mira said earlier is trades you're taking trading three for three two for two four for four

07:49:22.700 --> 07:49:25.020
This is not good for you. You need to win quickly

07:49:25.020 --> 07:49:28.700
You don't want to be swapping resources back and forth vision the more gold

07:49:28.700 --> 07:49:32.300
to get the harder it gets for

07:49:32.300 --> 07:49:33.000
you and that is the

07:49:33.000 --> 07:49:34.300
environment they want to

07:49:34.300 --> 07:49:36.300
play in. At the end of the

07:49:36.300 --> 07:49:37.900
day, there was another level

07:49:37.900 --> 07:49:39.500
from vision coming out. They're

07:49:39.500 --> 07:49:40.700
always able to stand the

07:49:40.700 --> 07:49:42.100
bleeding in this game. Those

07:49:42.100 --> 07:49:43.700
trades you guys mentioned, but

07:49:43.700 --> 07:49:44.900
when it came to being able to

07:49:44.900 --> 07:49:46.100
take mega creeps, that's the

07:49:46.100 --> 07:49:47.500
part for me. This sort of

07:49:47.500 --> 07:49:49.100
stands out above the rest

07:49:49.100 --> 07:49:50.700
because pushing high ground has

07:49:50.700 --> 07:49:52.300
always been a big conversation.

07:49:52.300 --> 07:49:53.700
How do you do it in modern

07:49:53.700 --> 07:49:54.900
Dota and how do you do it

07:49:54.900 --> 07:49:56.300
comfortably, and it wasn't

07:49:56.300 --> 07:49:57.500
really comfortable for vision.

07:49:57.500 --> 07:50:01.240
Spirit and it feels like they've all in and now it's a make or break

07:50:01.340 --> 07:50:04.540
They end up getting mega creeps because it's to call us they put it the front line

07:50:04.540 --> 07:50:11.960
This enchantress which ends up being such a late game monster insane here and you wonder and how do you start dealing with and why?

07:50:11.960 --> 07:50:16.120
Are we sort of looking more towards her and how to call us later almost seamlessly?

07:50:16.120 --> 07:50:21.280
I mean to be honest they have pretty decent answers like when the entrance amped and set hitter a few times

07:50:21.280 --> 07:50:25.020
She just exploded but luckily my class is stolen a tombstone

07:50:25.020 --> 07:50:29.020
And when the tombstones next to her she's sitting next to the tombstone every time a stuff comes up to hit her

07:50:29.020 --> 07:50:33.140
She has the potential of just hiding the tombstone and that's not to be scared of any sort of counter initiation

07:50:33.140 --> 07:50:36.180
Right Rubik link list any sort of roll in with an infested nakes

07:50:36.180 --> 07:50:38.460
It's super scared to stand there and try to hit the tomb down

07:50:38.460 --> 07:50:43.940
So this steel honestly is what's secured on the mega creep so huge props to mine cost as well for securing the high ground

07:50:43.980 --> 07:50:44.460
Yeah

07:50:44.460 --> 07:50:50.100
It shows a lot of in the moment presence of mine to be like we're not going to siege them the typical way our carry is not

07:50:50.100 --> 07:50:50.900
Going to hit the high ground

07:50:50.900 --> 07:50:52.760
That's not an intuitive thing to do.

07:50:52.760 --> 07:50:55.260
And so to me, it says they've recovered completely from game one.

07:50:55.260 --> 07:50:56.540
The nerves are gone.

07:50:56.700 --> 07:50:59.200
I think especially at the start of this game, you see a little bit of that

07:50:59.200 --> 07:51:02.260
shaking is still, but as more time passes, they start to win fights.

07:51:02.260 --> 07:51:04.460
I think they regain that confidence, that belief in themselves.

07:51:04.640 --> 07:51:06.700
They remember what got us here in the first place.

07:51:06.860 --> 07:51:08.900
And that is incredible individual skill.

07:51:08.960 --> 07:51:10.460
It's excellence from all their players.

07:51:10.460 --> 07:51:11.900
And they show that and they bring it back.

07:51:12.040 --> 07:51:15.040
I think that is a very hard to especially against a team that is as

07:51:15.040 --> 07:51:16.540
terrifying as Team Spirit is.

07:51:16.900 --> 07:51:20.000
And yeah, ultimately vision were able to do that for themselves.

07:51:20.000 --> 07:51:26.600
We see the run up that you know vision has been throughout the upper bracket here and they really take it to spirit

07:51:26.600 --> 07:51:29.120
But the only game wasn't necessarily that easy again

07:51:29.120 --> 07:51:31.220
We talk about it spirit getting their hands on this lot

07:51:31.220 --> 07:51:36.680
It was incredibly impactful throughout that ti run to and this time around it didn't really feel like it was much different

07:51:36.680 --> 07:51:39.020
But I'm just gonna give us some more information on how that happened

07:51:40.480 --> 07:51:44.080
Thank you now yeah, Laura had a bat a lot of bad matchups today

07:51:44.080 --> 07:51:47.340
Almost every single game that he played he had to play losing matchups

07:51:47.340 --> 07:51:50.740
which made his lane tough, but in this game he had an incredible performance here.

07:51:50.740 --> 07:51:54.080
I love how he went for this trade here leading up to the gank that was coming.

07:51:54.080 --> 07:51:59.260
He pops his salve knowing that the gank is about to happen and he's gonna run into this fight low HP,

07:51:59.260 --> 07:52:01.300
but knowing that no one has no mana.

07:52:01.300 --> 07:52:04.180
So when Rue ends up rotating here and they go for this pressure,

07:52:04.180 --> 07:52:08.500
he's gonna get a full healing salve under the threat of enemy heroes, which is crazy.

07:52:08.500 --> 07:52:12.060
And this TP by Nank class, which was fantastic, but unfortunately for him,

07:52:12.060 --> 07:52:16.380
he barely killed the axe and he ends up giving Laurel a double kill as a result.

07:52:16.380 --> 07:52:21.980
So long a surround with this game a little bit. No pun intended as these teepees at the top lane sprinting all the way towards no

07:52:21.980 --> 07:52:25.940
And now he lowers the armor here of no one and what happens next is not me

07:52:25.940 --> 07:52:30.740
He's gonna shoot his acorn that's gonna bounce a bunch of times doing a ton of physical damage to no one

07:52:30.740 --> 07:52:37.100
So despite after getting killed in the lane for no one his next immediate rotation was shut down by Laurel as well

07:52:37.100 --> 07:52:43.800
Due to this great rotation now gets blink dagger. He goes to gank the safe lane very easy ultimate blink crush is tons of

07:52:43.800 --> 07:52:45.680
physical damage against these supports.

07:52:45.680 --> 07:52:46.840
They've really got to worry about this.

07:52:46.840 --> 07:52:48.720
And the next couple of minutes was them basically

07:52:48.720 --> 07:52:50.080
just controlling the map,

07:52:50.080 --> 07:52:51.640
not letting their puns get much done.

07:52:51.640 --> 07:52:53.840
So what Earth Spirit does is he uses his spells

07:52:53.840 --> 07:52:55.960
to clear the creep wave, but immediately afterwards,

07:52:55.960 --> 07:52:58.560
their Slardar on top of him, stunning him,

07:52:58.560 --> 07:52:59.760
and having huge movements here,

07:52:59.760 --> 07:53:02.360
which means very, very easy for him to block the roll here.

07:53:02.360 --> 07:53:05.280
Laurel just absolutely demolished the mid game.

07:53:05.280 --> 07:53:07.000
He gave a lot of control for his team

07:53:07.000 --> 07:53:09.200
and that allowed the Shadowfiend who had tons of net worth

07:53:09.200 --> 07:53:11.500
to just stay on top for such a long time in this game.

07:53:11.500 --> 07:53:13.400
So excellent early game for Team Spirit,

07:53:13.400 --> 07:53:16.240
but in the end they didn't win by enough.

07:53:16.240 --> 07:53:18.360
Thank you, Purge, breaking it all down.

07:53:18.360 --> 07:53:21.520
And I love this so much because it really, again,

07:53:21.520 --> 07:53:23.480
emphasizes just what vision we're

07:53:23.480 --> 07:53:25.120
able to do for themselves.

07:53:25.120 --> 07:53:27.080
Not only get a foot back into this game,

07:53:27.080 --> 07:53:28.720
but to close it out, to become victorious

07:53:28.720 --> 07:53:30.320
after you see what the slaughter is,

07:53:30.320 --> 07:53:33.960
what this new sense of a hero can really push you to

07:53:33.960 --> 07:53:35.800
and the limits that you're tested between.

07:53:35.800 --> 07:53:37.400
And it also gives that little bit of advantage

07:53:37.400 --> 07:53:39.520
when it comes to a draft because often,

07:53:39.520 --> 07:53:41.080
teens would be worried about a slaughter.

07:53:41.080 --> 07:53:42.480
They've had to focus on banning it.

07:53:42.480 --> 07:53:47.880
And despite Slardar getting up to a fantastic start that Pudge showed us there, they were still able to beat it.

07:53:47.880 --> 07:53:51.280
And now you feel a little less worried about having it banned and a little bit more confident.

07:53:51.280 --> 07:53:53.380
And if you guys want to run it, by all means.

07:53:53.380 --> 07:53:56.880
Yeah, I think that's such a massive part of how these series go.

07:53:56.880 --> 07:53:59.880
It's not just the actual strength of the heroes, but how they feel.

07:53:59.880 --> 07:54:03.380
Are you scared of Slardar? When they pick it, how does that make you feel?

07:54:03.380 --> 07:54:06.280
These are genuinely really important aspects of the game.

07:54:06.280 --> 07:54:09.680
Because now, like you said, when they pick Slardar, they feel like we have answers for it.

07:54:09.680 --> 07:54:15.220
We know the scaling is not very good or this or that the other there are so many factors that play into these drafts and

07:54:15.460 --> 07:54:18.820
Each time you get a win like this it instills a lot of confidence in you

07:54:18.820 --> 07:54:24.140
I think also in regards to the draft this underlord has to have shifted up in priority

07:54:24.140 --> 07:54:25.500
And this is a hero team spirit

07:54:25.500 --> 07:54:30.200
We're also running but the way that notice made it look as a means to hold out the game to later

07:54:30.200 --> 07:54:33.820
Denied deny team fights just by just throwing those pits out over and over again

07:54:33.820 --> 07:54:36.920
This is the hero to look at in my opinion for the next game. Yeah

07:54:36.920 --> 07:54:43.560
I mean you mentioned earlier. He was absolutely a rock for them. I think what's really fascinating though is like when we're looking at this draft

07:54:43.600 --> 07:54:47.720
It's really hard to see a good carry thing like we don't really we can't identify

07:54:47.760 --> 07:54:50.640
What is the hero to slot in here traditionally?

07:54:50.640 --> 07:54:56.640
Nakes is not a very good hero against slaughter and SF but due to the items that he buys he goes for Manta

07:54:56.640 --> 07:55:00.480
He goes for AC he goes for radiance he buys armlet all these items are giving him armor

07:55:00.480 --> 07:55:03.720
It's giving him evasion. He's just tanking up and he's buying all the right items

07:55:03.720 --> 07:55:08.760
And I feel like recognizing that in the draft and going for a hero that's traditionally not good matchup

07:55:08.840 --> 07:55:13.680
But because he buys the right items he becomes that is really really cool. Yeah, it's a it's a great point

07:55:13.680 --> 07:55:16.920
And I think it's a testament to how in Dota sometimes you're almost

07:55:17.440 --> 07:55:22.960
Picking items then you are picking a hero like you look at a draft and you know you need certain items a classic

07:55:23.240 --> 07:55:24.880
Example is like you see their heroes

07:55:24.880 --> 07:55:29.280
You know you need a pipe and so you pick pipe you pick any hero that can buy it naturally in his item bill

07:55:29.280 --> 07:55:31.880
And I think I totally agree. I think that's sort of what they did this game

07:55:31.880 --> 07:55:39.480
and it's ingenious and creative and it's just speaks to how high level these two teams are that have the awareness of that

07:55:39.480 --> 07:55:42.920
They're not just looking at the matchups on terms of a here-to-here basis

07:55:42.920 --> 07:55:47.920
But understanding that items can fix those problems. It's it's it's very good. Yeah, it's a statement to say we're gonna

07:55:48.560 --> 07:55:54.640
Choose a weaker lane and win later on in the game because life so absolutely had the scaling that game

07:55:54.640 --> 07:55:58.680
But that early game was really rough and while teams fear did end up losing it

07:55:58.680 --> 07:56:04.160
I think they have to account for the way that the supports rotated and connected to Laurel the way that the pressure was ongoing on

07:56:04.160 --> 07:56:08.920
No, and this is two games in a row. He's had four people in his lane like minute eight

07:56:09.280 --> 07:56:13.120
Yeah, I think for both sides of this game has like a lot of conversation efforts

07:56:13.120 --> 07:56:16.640
I don't think you walk away as vision thinking like oh, this is great. Let's just keep doing this

07:56:16.640 --> 07:56:21.740
I hope he ran out for 20 minutes and just getting absolutely slammed them will hopefully say that it will carry us eventually

07:56:21.740 --> 07:56:25.960
So from their side, there's that conversation to be had how do we like secure up our early game?

07:56:25.960 --> 07:56:29.420
I think for spirit because they're able to play so many different styles of Dota

07:56:29.420 --> 07:56:33.420
It also is a question of do we want to continue with this like absolute ramp up

07:56:33.420 --> 07:56:38.000
Do we want to keep trying to like overload them with so many plays that happening at once that they cannot?

07:56:38.480 --> 07:56:42.900
Play or do we try to fall back on a bit more scaling ourselves? Yeah, sorry

07:56:42.900 --> 07:56:47.640
I think that's I tend to believe it should be somewhere in the middle like I think for spirit

07:56:47.640 --> 07:56:50.680
You don't want to go full into pressure mode because I think that's what this game is

07:56:50.680 --> 07:56:51.720
They're full into pressure

07:56:51.720 --> 07:56:56.720
They're all committed on you play early game temple and the late game is very bad for them once the items come out

07:56:56.720 --> 07:56:58.720
I think something in between still good lanes

07:56:58.720 --> 07:57:05.040
But better scaling so that you have at least a chance if there are some trades and things aren't totally clean because a maculate

07:57:05.040 --> 07:57:07.760
Gameplay in a TI finals is just somewhat unreasonable

07:57:08.520 --> 07:57:10.520
Absolutely. I do think the pressure

07:57:11.400 --> 07:57:15.640
Thing is very important though because the only times that team vision have dropped games

07:57:15.720 --> 07:57:19.440
This entire TI is too heavy pressure and heavy temple lineup

07:57:19.440 --> 07:57:26.280
So I think that identification is correct and you can just iron out like you said pick some more scaling pick some

07:57:26.280 --> 07:57:32.940
Maybe take away something like an underlord that can allow them to hold the game out for longer with tower defenses and with team fights

07:57:33.200 --> 07:57:35.920
If I was looking for nominal provision there by the way

07:57:35.920 --> 07:57:42.320
We saw a brief glimpse of them before they're about to walk back out on stage and a lot of smiles a lot of jovial energy

07:57:42.320 --> 07:57:45.480
And I feel like often what we got to witness in game number two

07:57:45.480 --> 07:57:49.640
It's very similar for us and everyone else at home and to put it into a

07:57:50.240 --> 07:57:56.480
Time frame that people can understand is that this is the second longest brand finals game

07:57:56.480 --> 07:57:59.720
We've had at a TI. It's also the second highest in kills

07:57:59.720 --> 07:58:03.040
The only one that's beat it was a game for between LBD and OG

07:58:03.040 --> 07:58:09.000
Like that is the privilege in which we're getting to witness between the high caliber teams and how closely matched with vision

07:58:09.000 --> 07:58:11.120
And spirit are today. That's so cool

07:58:11.120 --> 07:58:17.200
We were screaming in the green room when the team fights were happening. Yeah, that game four is also probably the single most iconic

07:58:17.200 --> 07:58:20.600
Ti game and so for this to be just just below it

07:58:20.600 --> 07:58:25.400
I think is is a testament to the caliber like you said and I'm just so excited to see the continued

07:58:25.800 --> 07:58:28.360
Adaptation you also mentioned how they looked backstage

07:58:28.360 --> 07:58:32.600
And I think it's a really important aspect of these long series that you don't get too excited

07:58:32.600 --> 07:58:35.240
You don't get too amped up or two sort of in your own boat

07:58:35.240 --> 07:58:36.680
But like yeah, we did so good this game

07:58:36.680 --> 07:58:39.360
We own them this easy because it's not you did win this game

07:58:39.360 --> 07:58:43.520
But like Aiden said, you do not run them over. This is not some dynamic complete beat down

07:58:43.520 --> 07:58:46.040
You came back and you want to you played a good game

07:58:46.040 --> 07:58:51.000
But you need to you know reel it in and understand that this is we still got a long way to go

07:58:51.520 --> 07:58:56.640
Yeah, and I think honestly this is where the upper bracket advantage also might start kicking in now

07:58:56.640 --> 07:58:59.560
Spirit is on their third game of the day or fourth game of the day. Sorry

07:59:00.000 --> 07:59:01.520
whereas for

07:59:01.520 --> 07:59:07.600
Vision you're just on your second and eventually the longer this final goes the more that drain is gonna come in and it is a factor to

07:59:07.600 --> 07:59:08.800
keep in mind.

07:59:08.800 --> 07:59:11.680
I do think that Spirit feel good after that game though.

07:59:11.680 --> 07:59:14.400
Like it feels bad to lose after a start like that,

07:59:14.400 --> 07:59:16.880
but at some point in this game,

07:59:16.880 --> 07:59:19.120
the Dota Plus probability came up

07:59:19.120 --> 07:59:21.040
and Team Vision were only 5k ahead.

07:59:21.040 --> 07:59:23.600
There were no racks taken and it was 95 to 5.

07:59:23.600 --> 07:59:25.680
And if you can make a game competitive,

07:59:25.680 --> 07:59:28.480
when Dota Plus is saying in 95% of the time,

07:59:28.480 --> 07:59:31.840
those heroes on Radiant will outscale those heroes on Dier

07:59:31.840 --> 07:59:33.200
and it was taken that far,

07:59:33.200 --> 07:59:35.760
I think they can take away exceptional play from it as well.

07:59:35.760 --> 07:59:37.880
It's not like they're like, oh, we messed up guys.

07:59:37.880 --> 07:59:39.260
Maybe there are one or two moments

07:59:39.260 --> 07:59:41.260
but that really wasn't the end all in the end.

07:59:41.260 --> 07:59:44.660
I think we were also seeing the spirit buyback usage, right?

07:59:44.660 --> 07:59:47.080
That was another thing that we've always praised this team for.

07:59:47.080 --> 07:59:50.120
The late games that they're able to play, the buyback usage.

07:59:50.120 --> 07:59:51.020
And we saw it.

07:59:51.020 --> 07:59:53.320
They know the moments in which you have to buy back

07:59:53.320 --> 07:59:56.220
to be able to keep this game competitive, to push it further

07:59:56.220 --> 07:59:57.760
and to try and drag it out a little bit more.

07:59:57.760 --> 07:59:59.620
Give yourself any amount of breathing room

07:59:59.620 --> 08:00:01.620
in space that you possibly can get in this game.

08:00:01.620 --> 08:00:03.220
Yeah, I think this is actually kind of cool

08:00:03.220 --> 08:00:05.900
because Spirit, in both these two games,

08:00:05.900 --> 08:00:08.060
they remind me a little bit of TI 9 OG.

08:00:08.060 --> 08:00:09.620
They're bringing that pressure play style.

08:00:09.620 --> 08:00:11.300
They're bringing the tempo,

08:00:11.300 --> 08:00:13.420
and something that they used to do very econently

08:00:13.420 --> 08:00:15.300
was buyback really early on into the game.

08:00:15.300 --> 08:00:18.180
You buyback to secure that you don't lose your pressure.

08:00:18.180 --> 08:00:20.060
You don't let off that early fight,

08:00:20.060 --> 08:00:22.060
and then try to save your buyback to be clutched later.

08:00:22.060 --> 08:00:24.060
You rather use it quite aggressively

08:00:24.060 --> 08:00:25.900
to make sure that the pressure stays on your side.

08:00:25.900 --> 08:00:27.180
You can keep the tempo rolling,

08:00:27.180 --> 08:00:29.340
and you don't ever let up and let the game

08:00:29.340 --> 08:00:31.140
flip back in your opponent's direction.

08:00:31.140 --> 08:00:37.300
I think winning lanes in a TI setting is also like it can be a very sort of damning feeling for the other team

08:00:37.300 --> 08:00:40.820
But oh we're falling behind and it can weigh on you and be kind of spooky in a sense

08:00:40.820 --> 08:00:45.700
It maybe takes you out a little bit more than it would in a normal series where I know that these feelings are loose

08:00:45.700 --> 08:00:47.220
You die a couple times when it's fine

08:00:47.220 --> 08:00:52.660
If you lose lanes in a TI grand final suddenly it feels like things are crumbling and it's harder to push back

08:00:52.660 --> 08:00:57.900
I think the teams are way more susceptible to crumbling which is why we see a lot of three zeros in TI finals

08:00:57.900 --> 08:01:02.180
You lose a couple of lanes. You lose one game suddenly. You're just mush and the other team walks over you

08:01:02.180 --> 08:01:03.660
I mean I can speak to that

08:01:03.660 --> 08:01:09.860
I feel like the feeling when you're falling behind the timer just starts taking slower and slower and slower and you have so

08:01:09.860 --> 08:01:13.020
Much more time to just get into your own head and think about like oh

08:01:13.020 --> 08:01:16.960
I should have done that differently in the lane and obviously you should not be thinking about these things at all

08:01:16.960 --> 08:01:20.700
Because you can't go back in time and change it the one thing you can do is like try to think forward

08:01:20.700 --> 08:01:23.260
But it's so easy that that happens when you're falling behind

08:01:23.260 --> 08:01:27.980
Obviously, it's up to each individual to have that in mind and to push themselves to not

08:01:27.980 --> 08:01:33.060
fall into that. But does it help if you have a strong presence, if you have a strong person

08:01:33.060 --> 08:01:38.580
that's willing to almost be that hope in the team that goes, it's okay, we're getting

08:01:38.580 --> 08:01:41.980
trades. It's okay. They're not invading this part of the map. Do you almost need

08:01:41.980 --> 08:01:45.540
someone to be that silver lining at more pivotal times?

08:01:45.540 --> 08:01:48.220
It can definitely be useful. I think some players, you know, they just don't get

08:01:48.220 --> 08:01:51.820
into their own heads. You've gotten this far so many times that you've learned

08:01:51.820 --> 08:01:55.900
skill you've developed it. Other times it's really helpful to hear it from someone else.

08:01:55.900 --> 08:02:00.540
I would imagine in the Spirit Booth, like having Collapsed to be like, I'm going to carry this game.

08:02:00.540 --> 08:02:05.900
I remember actually quite iconically at TI 9, the practice rooms are all on the same floor.

08:02:05.900 --> 08:02:09.660
And as you finish your game, there's other games going on inside of the practice rooms,

08:02:09.660 --> 08:02:14.620
walking by the old team Liquid Room. And I'm just hearing Miracle yell at the top of his lungs,

08:02:14.620 --> 08:02:18.060
like, don't worry about this, I'll carry this game guys, just buy me five more minutes,

08:02:18.060 --> 08:02:21.740
I'll carry this game and having something like that it inspires confidence

08:02:21.740 --> 08:02:28.660
That is so cool because I can I can't imagine a better player for team vision than no one to take that role upon himself, too

08:02:28.660 --> 08:02:33.780
I hope they're in there in their boots building up that energy because they have a whole nother game to get into

08:02:35.500 --> 08:02:44.700
Team vision versus team spirit grand finals game three

08:02:48.060 --> 08:02:52.860
Game number three for our grand final where we've seen a one a piece right now

08:02:52.860 --> 08:02:57.420
Both time spirit have gotten off to a strong number strong the start for themselves

08:02:57.420 --> 08:03:01.300
And so having first pick again for the side of vision here

08:03:01.300 --> 08:03:02.820
Just like we had in game number one

08:03:02.820 --> 08:03:06.940
Are they gonna fall into that trap of trying to call spirits bluff again?

08:03:06.940 --> 08:03:09.060
They did that with the ember spirit this time around

08:03:09.060 --> 08:03:13.740
I feel like there could be a little bit of back and forth or toying not necessarily with that here

08:03:13.740 --> 08:03:19.040
I think they didn't want to steal SF actually. I think that's the hero that they're focused on with the dark seer band

08:03:19.040 --> 08:03:23.500
And that's a cool concept because the first two games where we're talking about Ember spirit

08:03:23.500 --> 08:03:26.380
But now they're like with shadow theme does the actual problem guys

08:03:27.260 --> 08:03:29.140
Yeah, it's a it's a cool adjustment

08:03:29.140 --> 08:03:35.300
And it's another testament to how these finals shift and change over time priorities move and I do like the spirit

08:03:35.300 --> 08:03:38.980
Bandera spirit. I think this hero is just too stupid and they gave it a try

08:03:38.980 --> 08:03:44.020
They need to experiment it in sense saying can we beat even this hero and they'd lose and like okay?

08:03:44.020 --> 08:03:46.420
That's fine. We can ban it. We had you sort of space here

08:03:46.420 --> 08:03:48.480
We decided that this band is sort of free

08:03:48.480 --> 08:03:51.500
So let's see if we can get an extra free one in there and beat this hero

08:03:51.620 --> 08:03:57.900
Yep, absolutely. We have however seen team spirit beat Shadowfiend today, right? They did it earlier today

08:03:57.940 --> 08:04:02.100
They're at that in that game did it with a terrible blade. I think here. They're realizing that I

08:04:02.420 --> 08:04:03.780
Didn't have to pick a TV now

08:04:03.780 --> 08:04:07.380
Which we absolutely don't want to do because then it's going to be playing as a ton of counters

08:04:07.380 --> 08:04:09.540
So or it's going to get banned out

08:04:09.540 --> 08:04:13.900
So we might as well pick a carry that we actually want or here that we actually want that we know can match up well against

08:04:13.900 --> 08:04:16.180
Yes, that isn't the TV but it can be picked early

08:04:16.180 --> 08:04:22.620
I do think that they place a lot of importance in the nature's profit against the shadow fiend matchup because when they opened the game number

08:04:22.620 --> 08:04:27.140
Two with that SF one of the bands was the nature's profit and whilst at the time I looked at it

08:04:27.140 --> 08:04:30.020
I thought it was just maybe taking it away from satanic

08:04:30.020 --> 08:04:35.620
I actually think it's deeper than that they really do believe in that carry to carry matchup being favorable the nature's profit now

08:04:35.620 --> 08:04:41.500
Yeah, it's another ranged hero that sort of gives you the similar turret thing of you have heroes that can go in and now you stand and hit

08:04:41.500 --> 08:04:45.620
But it's got the extra a lot of added wrinkle that it should profit is a very fast hero

08:04:45.620 --> 08:04:48.620
And he's very good against these ranged heroes that need a little bit of time to get online

08:04:48.620 --> 08:04:53.920
So not only does he have the ability to stand and fight you but he can tip you on your early take your tower and add the

08:04:53.920 --> 08:04:56.520
Momentum on top of the scaling and so I agree

08:04:56.520 --> 08:05:00.780
I think it is a sort of game read counter that they believe in and I think it makes sense

08:05:00.780 --> 08:05:05.580
It's also here. I would say if you just look at these two heroes objectively you put them in a demo lobby

08:05:05.580 --> 08:05:09.780
You let them hate each other to death SF will always win right so you're looking for spirit

08:05:09.780 --> 08:05:10.860
How do we amplify this?

08:05:10.860 --> 08:05:14.980
How do we amplify it either through gold by buying like getting him ahead with these quick moves?

08:05:14.980 --> 08:05:20.780
I've been talks about or what heroes we've paired up with in order for him to be able to outscale the SF because something is going to be needed

08:05:22.060 --> 08:05:27.140
This apart bands would have fit the bill that you're talking about like clock hook and undying heroes that can get on top of us

08:05:27.140 --> 08:05:32.260
I've died him with things like tombstone that enables nature's profit another hero that comes to mind is tusk

08:05:32.340 --> 08:05:35.300
But he did fall off a little bit during this tea

08:05:38.180 --> 08:05:40.180
So I was also really confused the

08:05:41.060 --> 08:05:43.740
Like arena screens were showing

08:05:44.580 --> 08:05:48.100
NTS and I think it was maybe X number I missed it very briefly

08:05:48.100 --> 08:05:52.660
But a lot of Chinese superstars in the crowd getting amongst the grand finals hype as well

08:05:52.660 --> 08:05:56.780
I mean if it's if it's happening you've got to watch it. It's the biggest though the event of the year

08:05:56.780 --> 08:06:01.580
It's it's so incredibly special and I think especially like those players have when you've been in the finals

08:06:01.580 --> 08:06:04.860
It has that extra layer of meaning because you put yourself in their shoes

08:06:04.860 --> 08:06:11.180
You know what it's like and I think anyone who's had something so important to them big and something that you're really your emotions are

08:06:11.180 --> 08:06:14.300
Tied to knows what it's like to watch something that holds so much gravity

08:06:14.980 --> 08:06:20.680
Yeah, absolutely, but back to the draft. They banned you on the Lord. They take Mira's advice here

08:06:20.680 --> 08:06:24.820
I mean that this hero just seems like it provides too many things it provides late game damage

08:06:24.820 --> 08:06:30.660
It provides so much crowd control and it's like there's no other offlaner quite like it at the moment that it is so stable

08:06:31.180 --> 08:06:34.940
Really, it seems like it as long as you pick it together with rubik and you don't get rubik yourself

08:06:34.940 --> 08:06:37.740
You're almost always gonna have a game regardless of how poor your lane is

08:06:37.740 --> 08:06:41.180
It's gonna have a way back into the game and it always has high impact just to its bells

08:06:42.140 --> 08:06:44.400
Yeah, it's it's it's a great realization

08:06:44.400 --> 08:06:47.940
I think it was definitely a problem for the last game and they sort of go back to the strategy

08:06:47.940 --> 08:06:51.300
They took in game one which is you know nine class doesn't have too many heroes

08:06:51.300 --> 08:06:53.020
He's been flying he's been leaning on the will a lot

08:06:53.020 --> 08:06:55.200
We had good success with it. We're gonna take the willow again

08:06:56.260 --> 08:07:02.020
And so long as ember is still in the pool this to call us and chantress will keep coming out. There are moments last came

08:07:02.020 --> 08:07:03.780
I thought he clutched really hard

08:07:03.780 --> 08:07:10.440
There was this one fight where he got a last second stomp with his centaur creep that killed Gatoro that started the cascading effect

08:07:10.440 --> 08:07:13.060
I mean, this is one of his most comfortable heroes

08:07:13.060 --> 08:07:17.560
I think back to when the colors first popped up on the proceed it was playing a lot of enchantress

08:07:17.560 --> 08:07:21.880
Yeah, this was his go-to guy. Why is it that we don't see many enchantress's?

08:07:21.880 --> 08:07:23.880
these days.

08:07:23.880 --> 08:07:27.880
I'm actually not sure. I mean, usually what ends up happening is that other heroes that get out,

08:07:27.880 --> 08:07:31.880
but if you look at the bands here, most of the really popular position 5 heroes are banned out.

08:07:31.880 --> 08:07:35.880
So that leaves, like, you take away the S tier, and now you enter the A tier, where Enchantress

08:07:35.880 --> 08:07:40.880
obviously sits somewhere in that range. It gets outscaled, like, outshined by the other heroes,

08:07:40.880 --> 08:07:44.880
but when you take them away, something enters a very good hero. And you also talk about the Ember Thread,

08:07:44.880 --> 08:07:48.880
and when there is, like, this dynamics going on in the final, it kind of shifts your priorities,

08:07:48.880 --> 08:07:54.580
priorities and it takes end from an A tier hero to an S tier hero because it blocks off the other S tier hero and the Embers

08:07:56.440 --> 08:08:02.540
There's also a sort of interesting dynamic going on that because the Slark has proven to be just unbeatable for Emberspirit

08:08:02.540 --> 08:08:05.680
Now it shifted to where our first pick having the last pick in that second phase

08:08:05.680 --> 08:08:08.760
You have the advantage because Team Spirit can't pick Emberspirit here

08:08:08.760 --> 08:08:10.820
Even if they wanted to because you will get responded with Slark

08:08:10.820 --> 08:08:14.580
And so now Team Vision gets the choice if we want Emberspirit on the last pick of the second phase

08:08:14.580 --> 08:08:17.800
We can just take it and it's already a great-looking Embers game Ember game provision

08:08:17.800 --> 08:08:24.000
I think it's absolutely genius like they picked this enchantress they try to cut off any possible angles and spirit pick it early on

08:08:24.160 --> 08:08:28.480
They still have the threat of start open so spirit can't pick it now and then on 18

08:08:29.080 --> 08:08:32.200
Our recipe referred to which is this last pick of the second phase

08:08:32.320 --> 08:08:36.200
You can secure that ember spirit for yourself if you want to following it up with the start fan

08:08:36.200 --> 08:08:40.660
Maybe even a huskar band if you're scared of that probably not but you can cover your hero

08:08:40.660 --> 08:08:48.500
The Clusk to me is very good because I think you need some way to prevent this nature profit

08:08:48.500 --> 08:08:52.180
from getting bursted by Slaughter Shadowfiend. They're presenting this problem similarly to

08:08:52.180 --> 08:08:56.020
last game where it's all ex-physical damage. Azure profit can buy a Manta, but you've

08:08:56.020 --> 08:08:59.700
got multiple other tools to turn it around. Because Vision's game plan is Slaughter,

08:08:59.700 --> 08:09:02.420
jump-sane, you burst. Okay, now you've got call turnaround. You've got snowball

08:09:02.420 --> 08:09:07.220
turnaround. To me, this is a very calculated and geared to what Vision has response

08:09:07.220 --> 08:09:11.060
that we want a way to turn this around. Our Nature Prophet is the core of our draft and like you

08:09:11.060 --> 08:09:14.980
said we need some sort of steroid, something to change the man fighting dynamic of these two heroes

08:09:14.980 --> 08:09:19.860
and we feel like this is what it is. For sure I also think the Tusk was being talked about when

08:09:19.860 --> 08:09:25.300
the Nature Prophet came out because if the clock didn't, it was then given to Team Spirit by

08:09:25.300 --> 08:09:28.980
Vision there really aren't any art types that substitute for it except the Tusk. You need

08:09:28.980 --> 08:09:32.500
something that can dive the shadow fiend. You need to be able to just bring pressure to

08:09:32.500 --> 08:09:36.660
him whenever it's possible and Nature's Prophet is a hero that can connect to any Tusk setup.

08:09:37.220 --> 08:09:42.220
Yeah, so think about if you look at Vision's draft, and you think about how do these heroes come together.

08:09:42.220 --> 08:09:44.220
There's a lot of amplification going on, right?

08:09:44.220 --> 08:09:52.220
There's Satanic on his FF, SF, who self-amplifies by having his lasting presence, which provides minus armor on everyone.

08:09:52.220 --> 08:09:58.220
You get Sardar adding to that, you have Pango adding to that, and then on top of that, Enchanters could take a wolf creep,

08:09:58.220 --> 08:10:02.220
and suddenly you're providing additional attack damage to everybody in the area.

08:10:02.220 --> 08:10:06.220
So this is kind of like the idea that they're going with, is that nothing is going to be unkillable.

08:10:06.220 --> 08:10:11.100
unkillable no matter how much armor you stack up you're never stacking up enough armor to get past this

08:10:11.460 --> 08:10:17.360
Yeah, I also think this pangler pick is actually better than the ember would have been because it gives you an opportunity to break

08:10:17.540 --> 08:10:20.940
Spirit's response to your jump so slaughter jumps initially now

08:10:20.940 --> 08:10:25.100
You've got a pangler who could jump the back line roll around and make this tusk and acts as like hell

08:10:25.100 --> 08:10:28.780
So it's not easy for them to just blink in compared to ember who until you get an axe

08:10:28.780 --> 08:10:30.020
Which is much later down the line

08:10:30.020 --> 08:10:34.020
It's not as easy to disrupt the back line and so vision realizing that and saying okay

08:10:34.020 --> 08:10:36.520
We see what you're doing here, and this is our response to that

08:10:36.520 --> 08:10:39.720
I think this is a very calculated and thought-out back and forth here

08:10:39.720 --> 08:10:45.140
Not just a we see we have an insta pick the number one don't above counter thing in a way that dynamic

08:10:45.240 --> 08:10:50.220
Confunction the same way for a team spirit right where there are double jump heroes and team vision like you mentioned

08:10:50.220 --> 08:10:55.980
But also two jump heroes and axe and tusk the issue with getting the two jump heroes on spirit right now to that

08:10:56.360 --> 08:10:59.740
Moment is up there lanes do seem a little bit harder like you've got this axe

08:10:59.740 --> 08:11:03.980
who's going to be going up against the SF, the Tusk who is probably just going to be pulling waves

08:11:03.980 --> 08:11:07.340
because there's really not that much you can do after that and the Blink Daggers are going to be

08:11:07.340 --> 08:11:11.260
delayed because of that whereas Pango, he doesn't really need a Blink Dagger, he's just got the

08:11:11.260 --> 08:11:14.940
rolling thunder and Slardar, he's got the sprint as well, like they have more gap closed

08:11:14.940 --> 08:11:20.220
naturally early on than Team Spirit. Yeah, it's definitely true. They may consider swapping lane

08:11:20.220 --> 08:11:24.380
supports, putting Tusk in the safe lane to help with that a little bit or altering things,

08:11:24.380 --> 08:11:28.460
and Team Spirit is a team that's very good at recognizing potential problems in the early

08:11:28.460 --> 08:11:31.580
game and swapping things around, getting creative, moving their heroes on a way to

08:11:31.580 --> 08:11:35.500
combine and get kills so that they're enabled to reach their mid game and laning timings.

08:11:35.500 --> 08:11:39.180
Yeah, I would like that a lot. And then you can just send Tusk through the gate to dive the SF

08:11:39.180 --> 08:11:43.580
after Willow sets up with a brown bull or something. Yeah, exactly. I mean, for Spirit's side,

08:11:43.580 --> 08:11:47.580
what they got going for themselves here, right? It's a lot of early game pressure again. If

08:11:47.580 --> 08:11:51.020
you think about it, Axe has a slow, Willow has a root. There's a lot of ways to slow

08:11:51.020 --> 08:11:54.380
down the SF to allow for the Nature's Prophet to TP in. Or like Mira said,

08:11:54.380 --> 08:11:58.860
half-toss connect from the gate which also sets up for the nature's profit. So for spirit it's all

08:11:58.860 --> 08:12:02.620
about pressure, it's all about tempo, it's all about how do we connect our heroes, how do we outnumber

08:12:02.620 --> 08:12:07.020
them. And I think what's cool here for vision is they're saying we like our draft, our heroes are

08:12:07.020 --> 08:12:10.700
good, we just need to come online right? So how do you prevent them from coming online? Well you

08:12:10.700 --> 08:12:14.860
destroy the pangomid, you send them into the abyss as Quinn would say, and they ban the

08:12:14.860 --> 08:12:19.660
two heroes I can do that. They ban the snapfire, they ban the monkey king, and they're trying

08:12:19.660 --> 08:12:23.660
to secure themselves a good laning phase because even if this ember comes out which traditionally

08:12:23.660 --> 08:12:26.240
This lane goes pretty good against Pango, it's not that punishing.

08:12:26.240 --> 08:12:27.240
Yep.

08:12:27.240 --> 08:12:31.240
It's very true and also because they have the slaughter asset, they have this minus armor.

08:12:31.240 --> 08:12:34.480
Some of the heroes that we've also traditionally seen against a Pango or something like a Huskar

08:12:34.480 --> 08:12:38.060
or Alina, you don't really want these heroes because yes, you may win the lane, but five

08:12:38.060 --> 08:12:41.580
minutes later you really wish you were another hero and it's also not particularly

08:12:41.580 --> 08:12:44.060
Laurel's favorite type of that's a Marci.

08:12:44.060 --> 08:12:49.020
We're seven of you Quinn, I'm very proud to have you on this battle.

08:12:49.020 --> 08:12:51.500
I mean this is actually one of Nine Class's favorite heroes.

08:12:51.500 --> 08:12:54.560
We see very often recently is you know Mira said he's been qualified

08:12:54.560 --> 08:13:00.400
But I think it it is a pretty cool pairing with slower because you can just jump on top of nature's profit

08:13:00.400 --> 08:13:04.460
And you just slam him together you question and Marcy punches him in the head and you take it through this guy

08:13:04.460 --> 08:13:11.020
I mean you're seeing it the only person who does like it is on the side of vision and it's zero picks their event

08:13:11.020 --> 08:13:15.740
So again, this is one of these things that folds back similar to when we saw this rough to come out for the side of spirit

08:13:15.740 --> 08:13:16.460
I love this

08:13:16.460 --> 08:13:20.120
This is the creativity that you need to be bringing into a grand finals

08:13:20.120 --> 08:13:27.280
This changes the dynamic of the spirit safe lane in a very big way because before whether you were laning against the slaughter or the pango flex

08:13:27.280 --> 08:13:29.040
Your natures profit was gonna have a good time

08:13:29.040 --> 08:13:35.140
You know he was just gonna be right-clicking them free farming you bring in Marcy and all of a sudden starter becomes a killer threat

08:13:35.140 --> 08:13:36.860
He's not just a hero that you can beat up

08:13:36.860 --> 08:13:39.400
He will be on top of you the second you have level 2 rebound

08:13:39.400 --> 08:13:43.140
There's not that much you can do on natures profit when you get connected on yeah

08:13:43.140 --> 08:13:46.820
I mean luckily for that I think now the test has to be in that same thing right the idea then is like

08:13:46.820 --> 08:13:52.220
You're gonna have to use that snowball to dodge that stun and that way try to like battle out the lane, but it absolutely is

08:13:54.220 --> 08:13:56.420
Oh my wow TV didn't get bad

08:13:57.140 --> 08:14:03.320
Yeah, so they just fully did not expect law to be playing the nature's profit and now they've got an incredible TV game

08:14:03.320 --> 08:14:06.460
You talk about minus armor. Well TV is the king of armor

08:14:06.460 --> 08:14:09.840
He has like 10 armor level one and it only goes up from there with the items

08:14:09.840 --> 08:14:15.680
buys, so a lot of your strategy, the way focusing down one hero with right clicks, has been nerfed

08:14:15.680 --> 08:14:21.360
pretty hard. I just assumed TB was banned. Like, I just didn't even think about the existence of this

08:14:21.360 --> 08:14:26.560
hero. It's honestly an amazing thing because if you take a look at Team Vision's draft, they have

08:14:26.560 --> 08:14:32.240
essentially no magic damage. And the way you usually beat TB is by happy magic damage. So this

08:14:32.240 --> 08:14:36.240
is a very good Terrowed game. Laurel and Naceous Prophet, however, for me is a little bit of

08:14:36.240 --> 08:14:39.680
of an unknown. I haven't really seen him play that much. I wouldn't say it's like a

08:14:39.680 --> 08:14:43.440
he's a typical nature's profit guy. But the things that we talked about earlier on, they

08:14:43.440 --> 08:14:47.520
still exist. The draft can still do the same things and maybe even faster with nature's profit

08:14:47.520 --> 08:14:51.200
from the mid lane because he gets like level six a bit faster. You can connect a little bit more.

08:14:51.200 --> 08:14:55.760
He's not as concerned about his own game. So see really cool things happening for both sides.

08:14:55.760 --> 08:14:59.680
I think Laurel is the type of player that will do what you need him to do. And team vision

08:14:59.680 --> 08:15:04.160
have learned that today with the Slark pick after the Ember that they didn't really think

08:15:04.160 --> 08:15:07.360
that he would do with this matrix profit flex that I caught of guard of this terrible

08:15:07.360 --> 08:15:08.920
It this is really cool to me

08:15:08.920 --> 08:15:15.280
And I think team spirit have absolutely secured the scaling in this game. Yeah, the shoes on the other foot last game vision

08:15:15.280 --> 08:15:20.520
Could able to just chill and fall on and I think this game spirit if secured that with also the also the potential to play the lanes

08:15:20.520 --> 08:15:24.840
Well, and so I think it's been a great punch back from a post good in this game. This is this is a master class

08:15:25.720 --> 08:15:28.240
Yeah, I probably would have said before this last big TV

08:15:28.240 --> 08:15:31.680
I really like the vision draft and I would have put it maybe like

08:15:31.680 --> 08:15:39.540
65 to 35 but after that I think it's a lot closer to 50. I love hearing a good 50-50 split on a draw more importantly

08:15:39.540 --> 08:15:43.960
I love hearing from our coaches that terrible late had us in a little bit of a head scratch

08:15:43.960 --> 08:15:47.520
Is to how it got let through but I wonder exactly how puppy felt when he saw her come out

08:15:48.560 --> 08:15:54.780
Thank you so much. Yes, I am here the king himself mr. Puppy such a pleasure to see you here on the main stage again

08:15:54.860 --> 08:15:58.840
Let's talk a little bit about this. You have let nine class out of his cage

08:15:58.840 --> 08:16:03.240
He is playing the meme heroes again. Where did this Marcy come from?

08:16:03.240 --> 08:16:06.720
How do you have the balls to pick a hero like this on the main stage of TI?

08:16:07.240 --> 08:16:10.240
9th class is a lot of balls. That's all I can say.

08:16:11.240 --> 08:16:14.240
Fantastic. What's his idea of yours? It was his idea.

08:16:15.120 --> 08:16:19.600
Completely approve of it. Okay. Okay. I was about to say maybe you were distancing yourself from that

08:16:19.600 --> 08:16:23.880
But no you fully support. Whose idea was it to let the terribly through?

08:16:25.200 --> 08:16:27.200
They already had Furion and

08:16:27.200 --> 08:16:31.560
And we basically guessed that they're going to swap this fury on somewhere, they're going

08:16:31.560 --> 08:16:33.440
to just lose their team fights everywhere.

08:16:33.440 --> 08:16:34.840
So we're not afraid.

08:16:34.840 --> 08:16:36.440
Okay, not afraid.

08:16:36.440 --> 08:16:40.800
It was actually pretty interesting to see a team be able to strike some blood, can

08:16:40.800 --> 08:16:41.800
she guys, right?

08:16:41.800 --> 08:16:45.600
Were you surprised with how those games went so far?

08:16:45.600 --> 08:16:46.600
Not necessarily.

08:16:46.600 --> 08:16:48.440
I think they won the drafts two games in a row.

08:16:48.440 --> 08:16:49.760
This time I think we have the edge.

08:16:49.760 --> 08:16:51.480
Okay, that's what I like to see.

08:16:51.480 --> 08:16:56.000
Now, last question here, you know, are they ever going to get another one,

08:16:56.000 --> 08:17:00.400
friend or is this the end of their ride? Is it going to be the full reversal sweep?

08:17:01.440 --> 08:17:06.240
I hope so. All right, thank you so much puppy. An absolute pleasure to see you again on the stage.

08:17:06.800 --> 08:17:12.800
Throw it to our casters to get ready for this game. Game three time ladies and gentlemen in the

08:17:12.800 --> 08:17:18.480
Grand Finals with the International 2026 team vision against Team Spirit, the Pigs Hog. We continue

08:17:18.480 --> 08:17:23.920
to get some exciting stuff. Marcy being thrown into the mix. Another new hero for this

08:17:23.920 --> 08:17:28.400
international and I tell you what, one that I kind of like, I think the series got a lot of potential

08:17:28.400 --> 08:17:32.560
and of course especially when it's in the hands of nine class. And when you've got something like a

08:17:32.560 --> 08:17:36.240
super hard carry to play around right, sure you don't use that sidekick, you don't notice the

08:17:36.240 --> 08:17:41.600
bodyguard as much as it once was, but it still can be a very strong tool for something like

08:17:41.600 --> 08:17:46.240
a shadow theme. These turret heroes, even though we don't see Marcy, definitely can see some type

08:17:46.240 --> 08:17:50.560
of potential from it. And what you make of the switch up, obviously as puppy talked about

08:17:50.560 --> 08:17:56.220
They weren't too fast about banning the Terrablade because they considered, well, if they do go for this spirit

08:17:56.220 --> 08:17:57.240
We have overwhelming teamfight

08:17:57.240 --> 08:18:01.740
It's going to be this nature's profit mid and that might leave some openings that Vision can punish

08:18:01.740 --> 08:18:03.440
Do you think they can or do you think it

08:18:04.180 --> 08:18:08.900
The fact that there is a Terrablade and it is a very good Terrablade game might fight them back

08:18:08.900 --> 08:18:13.860
It could, it definitely could, but Vision also very strong at being able to play versus these type of drafts

08:18:13.860 --> 08:18:16.740
And just knowing when to just always take the teamfight advantage

08:18:16.740 --> 08:18:19.920
I've seen them so many times in this tournament having teamfight advantage

08:18:19.920 --> 08:18:25.380
So let's see if that position for them is going to be working for them while for spirit much more scaling drafts

08:18:25.380 --> 08:18:27.200
Right looking for the MP to get that scaling

08:18:27.200 --> 08:18:32.260
I'm curious to see how active Laurel is going to be if he's going to TP to safe lane because I could see him make those moves

08:18:32.260 --> 08:18:37.000
Right you want to punish satanic. You don't want this nature's profit to have a free time and the lane overall

08:18:37.400 --> 08:18:39.400
It should be good

08:18:39.880 --> 08:18:44.800
So I want to see I want to see a play pretty aggressive on this nature's profit TPing in shut down satanic

08:18:44.800 --> 08:18:49.280
even potentially going for the TP plays on the safe lane if they do overextend onto Yatoro.

08:18:49.280 --> 08:18:51.320
That's what it would have to be.

08:18:51.320 --> 08:18:55.720
If they do try to go for these kills onto Yatoro, it's going to have to be out of these overextensions.

08:18:55.720 --> 08:18:58.440
And we're seeing the lane switch-ups, right?

08:18:58.440 --> 08:19:01.880
Instead of having the Marci with the Slardar, since it's a terribly down there now, they've

08:19:01.880 --> 08:19:05.640
put the Marci up top with the Shadow Fiend into strong pairing as well to be able to

08:19:05.640 --> 08:19:06.640
pick up the kill.

08:19:06.640 --> 08:19:09.000
And they've done this a couple of times, right, vision on their run here at the

08:19:09.000 --> 08:19:10.440
International between the supports.

08:19:10.440 --> 08:19:14.040
They have that flexibility and I think last time they made that switch-up, it

08:19:14.040 --> 08:19:15.040
It went pretty well for them.

08:19:15.040 --> 08:19:18.040
It did, and it's a lot because they end up leaving notice alone.

08:19:18.040 --> 08:19:21.040
DuKaulis gets that level 3, and he starts sandwiching on the mid-wave.

08:19:21.040 --> 08:19:24.040
And Maro, right, makes his profit playing versus Pango.

08:19:24.040 --> 08:19:27.040
You're definitely... you definitely can be dope.

08:19:27.040 --> 08:19:28.040
Not made.

08:19:28.040 --> 08:19:30.040
Praise comes in.

08:19:30.040 --> 08:19:31.040
He's healing.

08:19:31.040 --> 08:19:32.040
He's healing.

08:19:32.040 --> 08:19:34.040
He should be alright.

08:19:34.040 --> 08:19:36.040
I mean, can Nynclas get in range from the dispose?

08:19:36.040 --> 08:19:37.040
He's past there.

08:19:37.040 --> 08:19:38.040
The tree plant.

08:19:38.040 --> 08:19:41.040
He can't quite grab him.

08:19:41.040 --> 08:19:42.040
Can't see him.

08:19:42.040 --> 08:19:44.040
Nice play there from not me.

08:19:44.040 --> 08:19:49.040
Now able to beat back onto him, even though there's that movement speed advantage from the Marci, not me with the little branch play.

08:19:49.040 --> 08:19:53.040
Actually is able to distance himself a knife there. Nice.

08:19:53.040 --> 08:19:57.040
Now look forward to seeing, of course, what Satanic is ready to do on the SF. Last two games.

08:19:57.040 --> 08:19:59.040
He's been watching Yatora play the hero.

08:19:59.040 --> 08:20:05.040
Sure, Yatora didn't win last game, but still individually, he had a pretty good game on the SF.

08:20:05.040 --> 08:20:10.040
Satanic is ready to try and see if he can replicate that on his own Shadowfiend performance.

08:20:12.040 --> 08:20:16.560
Spirit having some pretty explosive starts to the game, particularly in that last game.

08:20:16.560 --> 08:20:18.060
They have that lead.

08:20:18.060 --> 08:20:25.060
They didn't end up dying a couple times, so that bottom plate from Yotaro hurt quite a lot when he died with the Aegis the first time, and then the second one around the Roche.

08:20:26.800 --> 08:20:28.560
Again, it delays though, Spirit.

08:20:28.560 --> 08:20:30.060
Looking to dominate though.

08:20:31.340 --> 08:20:32.340
Won him.

08:20:33.260 --> 08:20:35.460
Trying to make him move once and notice, but...

08:20:35.460 --> 08:20:41.680
It's difficult to do at least until they sort of see a chance where Yotaro is going to be

08:20:41.680 --> 08:20:44.060
happy to pop the meta and try and force to kill.

08:20:44.060 --> 08:20:46.020
Yotaro just buys the boots very early.

08:20:46.020 --> 08:20:47.620
He knows he's not really at threat down here.

08:20:47.620 --> 08:20:51.420
So it is going to be a free farm again for Yotaro, but this time it does feel like Satanics

08:20:51.420 --> 08:20:53.260
in a better position to get the free farm as well.

08:20:53.260 --> 08:20:56.940
So we're going to free farm carries versus each other, depending on what Laura wants

08:20:56.940 --> 08:20:57.940
to do.

08:20:57.940 --> 08:20:58.940
I'm still just going to look at the nature's profit.

08:20:58.940 --> 08:21:00.780
Are they actually going to use the TP to pressure?

08:21:00.780 --> 08:21:03.780
Are they just going to wait for the level six with the wrath of nature to go for

08:21:03.780 --> 08:21:04.780
these kills early on?

08:21:04.780 --> 08:21:07.320
Let's see what the choice is going to be from Laurel.

08:21:07.320 --> 08:21:10.080
Bit denies he's been able to get so far here.

08:21:10.080 --> 08:21:12.640
Seven in comparison to the one just with the pango.

08:21:12.640 --> 08:21:17.600
That's a terrible pick, right?

08:21:17.600 --> 08:21:20.900
This insane amount of armour he's going to have in the game.

08:21:20.900 --> 08:21:23.680
Absolutely going to be an element because as the panel touched on, looking at the

08:21:23.680 --> 08:21:27.300
magical damage, it's Shadowfiend raises in Requiem.

08:21:27.300 --> 08:21:28.820
That is literally it pretty much.

08:21:28.820 --> 08:21:31.500
So it's going to be really interesting to see if they can actually bring him

08:21:31.500 --> 08:21:34.300
down versus all that plus armour he has noticed.

08:21:34.300 --> 08:21:35.300
No more connection.

08:21:35.300 --> 08:21:37.300
Alright, he's gonna put the met up.

08:21:37.300 --> 08:21:40.300
Third to try and bully him, but he needs the sprints up.

08:21:40.300 --> 08:21:41.300
I don't know how many further control.

08:21:41.300 --> 08:21:43.300
Wait, did that just happen?

08:21:43.300 --> 08:21:46.300
Borrowed the night of Water Room with his trees, and no one bottled it.

08:21:46.300 --> 08:21:47.300
The thing happened.

08:21:47.300 --> 08:21:48.300
Oh, it did happen.

08:21:48.300 --> 08:21:50.300
It does happen on the same fix sometimes.

08:21:50.300 --> 08:21:51.300
Night class.

08:21:51.300 --> 08:21:53.300
Doesn't have breaks for the rebound.

08:21:53.300 --> 08:21:54.300
Get on the call.

08:21:54.300 --> 08:21:55.300
Now do it.

08:21:55.300 --> 08:21:57.300
First blood coming in for not me.

08:21:57.300 --> 08:22:01.300
It's actually a big deal that no one was able to get the refill, even though it was killed.

08:22:01.300 --> 08:22:05.920
You can literally see it if you pop up with the chat wheel there or the chat thing there the night water ruin it

08:22:05.920 --> 08:22:09.780
But bottled at the same time there were a frame perfect rain perfect rain perfect

08:22:10.180 --> 08:22:15.120
And it matters because you get something a lot is going to be able to continue being healthy in the matchup versus the nature's profit

08:22:15.120 --> 08:22:17.120
It keeps securing these last days

08:22:18.600 --> 08:22:24.360
So top lane for spirit you definitely see them have easier ways to get aggressive versus vision well bottom

08:22:24.580 --> 08:22:29.600
It's going to be to call us making movements around with that level three that we've seen so already seen him shift towards the mid lane

08:22:29.600 --> 08:22:34.400
Rue is anticipating it, reading the movements, looking for the ward, won't quite find it though,

08:22:34.400 --> 08:22:36.400
so if you place one, come again for the callus.

08:22:38.400 --> 08:22:41.600
So now you just, I guess it's Rue, you just follow the intangress, right?

08:22:41.600 --> 08:22:46.400
Leave the tariff, I'll give this 1v1 matchup, try and get a bit of a setup there, but not quite

08:22:46.400 --> 08:22:50.720
ever get the dispose to pull up on the rebound, collapse quick for the call to interrupt the

08:22:50.720 --> 08:22:53.440
combo, 9 class was trying to use to set up for the raises.

08:22:54.960 --> 08:22:58.320
9 class does have the level 2 rebound now, you actually usable,

08:22:58.320 --> 08:23:00.640
The first level of rebound is very hard to use.

08:23:01.520 --> 08:23:02.880
Callus will bind him.

08:23:02.880 --> 08:23:05.680
Go on the river! This is not where you expect Yatoro to be!

08:23:07.120 --> 08:23:08.800
That is a heads-up move!

08:23:09.280 --> 08:23:11.520
Rue just stalking to Callus as anticipated.

08:23:11.520 --> 08:23:14.000
He knows they've seen this play before from them,

08:23:14.000 --> 08:23:16.080
so they're reading it pretty beautifully.

08:23:18.000 --> 08:23:21.360
C.S. though, the fact that they are leaving the bottom lane.

08:23:21.360 --> 08:23:23.600
Notice is now just starting to get that free farm,

08:23:23.600 --> 08:23:25.280
even though he is versus that terrible lane.

08:23:26.240 --> 08:23:27.280
Remains for vision.

08:23:28.320 --> 08:23:30.320
Get messy, yes

08:23:30.720 --> 08:23:34.880
All in all very close star very close too much of a difference there

08:23:35.760 --> 08:23:38.460
You know it don't nobody getting pressured out of the lane

08:23:39.440 --> 08:23:44.200
Rule will get the airfield in my boss. Did he get the grab on a collapse that's up for the razors

08:23:44.200 --> 08:23:47.860
Drives tonight the tower to get the kill but I've got something to do the other finish the job

08:23:48.560 --> 08:23:54.360
Dying and now the rotation that of the roll for over one satanic starts off the mark though a satanic will live

08:23:54.360 --> 08:23:59.720
the willow already has ash lead and shield that actually saves collect I was

08:23:59.720 --> 08:24:03.560
clicking on it who the hell has this neutral item already it's the willow

08:24:03.560 --> 08:24:08.160
the barrier actually seems collapsed there I'm pretty sure that was pretty

08:24:08.160 --> 08:24:10.280
crazy you can't calculate for that on the side of vision

08:24:10.280 --> 08:24:16.080
that's a good dive but responded accordingly they're from spirit again

08:24:16.080 --> 08:24:22.600
nine class might try for roux it's hard though with the snowball will always

08:24:22.600 --> 08:24:28.120
be able to disrupt the combo that Nincast will try and catch him with. They want to dive Laurel here.

08:24:28.760 --> 08:24:33.400
No one doesn't have the roll up but does have the 3-3, does have the skill points for the damage.

08:24:33.400 --> 08:24:38.120
I need to apply some pressure here under the tower. Laurel can drag the wave though with this train safely.

08:24:40.680 --> 08:24:45.480
Hefty stacks being made, Owen. Vision definitely has potential to walk in and go for some type

08:24:45.480 --> 08:24:51.880
of steal plays as well too. And a rare time that I've seen this too, so it's a mechanic

08:24:51.880 --> 08:24:57.000
that I haven't seen many other teams abusing some time the stacks with the wrath of nature we talked about it a lot

08:24:57.000 --> 08:25:02.360
I think those I mean it builds up the damage of the old us very effectively like last ti or I think there's the ti before that we

08:25:02.360 --> 08:25:05.320
Saw teams abusing this this wrath of nature offer these neutrals

08:25:05.320 --> 08:25:08.840
It means it effectively does max damage on all the rest of the bounces all over the map

08:25:08.840 --> 08:25:13.240
So they have to calculate that in on the side of vision if they do scout those stacks

08:25:13.240 --> 08:25:15.240
I don't know if they did see them just yet

08:25:15.240 --> 08:25:19.720
But it's a lot of extra burst damage that could catch some of these heroes off guard so cool to point that out

08:25:19.720 --> 08:25:24.180
Seeing the item build Q from Laurel right now too, it's just the drums so he's

08:25:24.180 --> 08:25:28.620
looking to be aggressive early on is what that tells me. Not your usual pick up

08:25:28.620 --> 08:25:31.780
from these latest profits. I mean that should allow him to well turn up and

08:25:31.780 --> 08:25:35.220
ensure that Yatora can kind of take these early objectives. Yeah and he can kill

08:25:35.220 --> 08:25:37.540
buildings pretty quickly too, right? Just being able to beat on them with the

08:25:37.540 --> 08:25:40.220
trance with the drum.

08:25:40.220 --> 08:25:43.740
Cool itemization if he does those.

08:25:43.740 --> 08:25:47.660
The Coloss is gonna now go into that triangle, gonna start scouting these

08:25:47.660 --> 08:25:52.300
stacks out stealing some of the creeps as well. So we'll limit some of that farm. Will he get out for it?

08:25:53.340 --> 08:25:56.300
He's coming in from low. He's ready to block him off with the sprout.

08:25:58.380 --> 08:26:02.060
Going to get in front of him with the trees. Trying to get some body block sets up for that big hit

08:26:02.060 --> 08:26:07.100
from the nature's wrath. We'll succeed. I'm happy to see the team doing this. I think I talked to

08:26:07.100 --> 08:26:10.300
like five of the players during this tournament. I was like, how come nobody's doing this

08:26:10.300 --> 08:26:14.620
stacking thing with wrath of nature anymore? So happy to see that Spirit is in preparation

08:26:14.620 --> 08:26:19.820
with that. Collapse, 9th class trying to prevent him to get the cheeky out. He's got the rebound.

08:26:19.820 --> 08:26:25.420
No one's coming in to help. Look at the cool off Collapse. The rolling thunder's there. Collapse

08:26:25.420 --> 08:26:29.420
is going to try and juke it. He's beating, but there's only so much he can dance around.

08:26:29.420 --> 08:26:33.900
As the colors comes in with the slow Collapse, he's going to run down the river. He's actually

08:26:33.900 --> 08:26:36.700
running back to that. He gets the dog. Why are you kidding?

08:26:36.700 --> 08:27:05.700
He's a great space, my friend. I will show up and push this tower here. Vision. Still farming very well, but five quick toasters very tutorial. Turning up to these very early fights. I am these jukes. The river movement speed absolutely coming into play there. Also having the stone fenders satchel with the movement speed as well does come into play, of course.

08:27:05.700 --> 08:27:11.540
As we saw last game from Yatoro, you know, Team Spirit's cause, they know when to run back in.

08:27:11.540 --> 08:27:16.040
Doesn't matter how low they are, they see an opportunity to get something, they'll get back in on the action.

08:27:18.040 --> 08:27:22.560
Bison though, I mean, yes, they brought four heroes up there, but not moving with notice, which is the important one.

08:27:22.560 --> 08:27:28.040
Notice as I guys, I'm having a very free lane, and we do have to talk about how important notice was in that last game.

08:27:28.040 --> 08:27:34.040
Besides just the Pitch being absolutely insane, the damage mitigation he provided in that last game was huge.

08:27:34.040 --> 08:27:38.920
This game is not damage mitigation, but it's damage amplification and it's the blink dagger, right?

08:27:38.920 --> 08:27:44.920
It's that initiation tool for the team that he's gonna have very early, which is really good versus four of the heroes.

08:27:44.920 --> 08:27:50.840
Sure versus the TV, not as great because he's got that high armor, but first the rest of them, they can be very strong to close that gap in first though.

08:27:52.520 --> 08:27:56.840
Staying very even on the gold despite the early kills that Spirit of Finding.

08:27:56.840 --> 08:28:00.820
The Tannick in this game though, absolute free-fuck.

08:28:00.820 --> 08:28:03.420
At least the DMC was feeling a bit more of that pressure.

08:28:03.420 --> 08:28:07.360
He made an amazing recovery on the Life-Skiller.

08:28:07.360 --> 08:28:11.360
Now we've been sort of seeing the timings of the DSF versus the Terriblade kind of match

08:28:11.360 --> 08:28:12.360
up in these games.

08:28:12.360 --> 08:28:16.560
In these games, in overall games, I'm not sure, but with these games, Spirit and

08:28:16.560 --> 08:28:19.440
versus Deficient, they're going to show up to be one of these fights.

08:28:19.440 --> 08:28:21.160
They just love to play very aggressive.

08:28:21.160 --> 08:28:24.880
So I imagine when I see both of them turn up, more than anticipated than other

08:28:24.880 --> 08:28:25.880
ones do.

08:28:25.880 --> 08:28:29.840
He's just gonna go normal build. I thought maybe we'll see some type of pivot from him

08:28:29.840 --> 08:28:32.520
But not gonna be the case some of the players that see them go for this

08:28:32.520 --> 08:28:36.040
Yasha Kayapult when he's playing versus something like TP, but he wants to Manta

08:28:36.560 --> 08:28:41.360
Once that that disc welters the reflection eventually wants to be able to Manta dodge versus the axe early on too

08:28:42.520 --> 08:28:44.520
No mate

08:28:45.040 --> 08:28:50.680
If the shadow realm off got the fear we'll be able to stop further raises is gonna try for the TP out

08:28:50.680 --> 08:28:52.520
But that's not the way to put a stop to it

08:28:52.520 --> 08:28:57.000
I've not made we'll get taken down there by a further raise from satanic

08:28:58.280 --> 08:29:00.280
I

08:29:00.840 --> 08:29:05.200
Wonder what night class is gonna do overall with this build. Is there anything different nowadays? I don't even

08:29:05.600 --> 08:29:07.600
I think you got greedy

08:29:07.760 --> 08:29:12.760
Cholo if you go like phase something maybe go blink back or phase boosts a BKB

08:29:13.040 --> 08:29:16.700
Crystal of table us faster. That's what I want to see. No one

08:29:16.700 --> 08:29:20.700
Gold connection, Wilhelm Gatoro, nice shards to protect, with a jump over.

08:29:20.700 --> 08:29:23.700
Still gonna be able to jump in, as notice coming from the crush.

08:29:23.700 --> 08:29:25.700
They have to be careful, potential sungler will get it off,

08:29:25.700 --> 08:29:28.700
but he's surrounded by the whole team. The snowball save comes into play.

08:29:28.700 --> 08:29:31.700
Rolled up to the high ground for the stun, into the right wing of the stack.

08:29:31.700 --> 08:29:33.700
They tied against the double kill.

08:29:33.700 --> 08:29:38.700
Oh, vision, they've got a really good position right now to play this aggression with this blink.

08:29:38.700 --> 08:29:39.700
Oh, yeah.

08:29:39.700 --> 08:29:40.700
Early on, notice.

08:29:40.700 --> 08:29:42.700
You said it both carries looking to turn up.

08:29:42.700 --> 08:29:45.700
Vision there as a whole. They have the stuns.

08:29:45.700 --> 08:29:47.420
They have to set up the requiem.

08:29:47.420 --> 08:29:49.140
He's going to win that trade every single time

08:29:49.140 --> 08:29:50.500
around these early moments.

08:29:50.500 --> 08:29:51.820
This big game, it does feel like it's

08:29:51.820 --> 08:29:53.780
going to be quite hard for Spirit, in particular,

08:29:53.780 --> 08:29:55.820
since they're playing versus this heavy teamfight.

08:29:55.820 --> 08:29:57.580
And this Slaughter with this early blink.

08:29:57.580 --> 08:29:59.980
Laurel, he's not going to really want to turn up too much.

08:29:59.980 --> 08:30:02.260
He's going to go more greedy around, go for the maelstrom,

08:30:02.260 --> 08:30:03.900
go for the scaling potential eventually.

08:30:03.900 --> 08:30:05.500
But that does mean the window is

08:30:05.500 --> 08:30:07.940
going to be open for vision to shut down Yotaro.

08:30:07.940 --> 08:30:08.700
Look for the axe.

08:30:08.700 --> 08:30:12.340
Look for these kills to set the pace in this game.

08:30:12.340 --> 08:30:14.900
And that's the thing where they've got so much gap

08:30:14.900 --> 08:30:21.900
Closed. The Slardar, the Panga, the Marcy. They're gonna look to get straight on top of Spirit each and every time in these teamfights.

08:30:24.440 --> 08:30:30.440
I think he's just gonna... Okay, good. He does. I was figuring he does this on the Marcy. You just go blink because you're the save. You're like the tusk.

08:30:30.640 --> 08:30:36.480
Yes, they go on the Shadow Fiend. You end up rebounding them and pulling them out. So I think this is the best option for a 9-class to go for in this game.

08:30:38.200 --> 08:30:40.200
Panic. The trap is coming for him.

08:30:40.200 --> 08:30:43.200
He's looking pretty dead-ass!

08:30:43.200 --> 08:30:46.200
Quite far out on the top lane!

08:30:46.200 --> 08:30:48.200
I'm happy to see Longinus.

08:30:48.200 --> 08:30:51.200
I don't really want to see him play too passive on this Nature's Prophet.

08:30:51.200 --> 08:30:55.200
Even if he's going this Maelstrom build, I want to see him turned up to these early fights.

08:30:55.200 --> 08:30:58.200
Sure, not the last one, because it was a pretty horrible position before I fight.

08:30:58.200 --> 08:31:01.200
I want to see him play pretty aggressive on this Nature's Prophet.

08:31:04.200 --> 08:31:06.200
He's done for no one.

08:31:06.200 --> 08:31:08.200
They want to strike back on this top side.

08:31:08.200 --> 08:31:11.880
this top side. I mean they know that Spirit just made this play up here on the top lane.

08:31:11.880 --> 08:31:16.520
They're gonna see if anyone's left around. Will be not me!

08:31:16.520 --> 08:31:18.520
We did it.

08:31:19.480 --> 08:31:23.320
So, and we'll go for more. We'll find the connection onto anybody else here but we'll be able to sleep

08:31:23.320 --> 08:31:26.520
towards the main. To potentially for the rune as well too. 10 seconds till it will

08:31:26.520 --> 08:31:30.520
spawn. See if no one gets lucky for it.

08:31:31.080 --> 08:31:35.080
If there's these 5v5 engagements, right? Vision. Have the clear advantage in the

08:31:35.080 --> 08:31:39.200
If they can somehow split it up though in spirit, that's the key to their success right?

08:31:39.200 --> 08:31:43.320
All about the split push, force and vision to react and taking the fight to the numbers.

08:31:43.320 --> 08:31:48.080
I think at the least spirit then I'm gonna want to fight until the collapse has this blink that right right now.

08:31:48.080 --> 08:31:50.920
That's the next timing that spirit are gonna try and find.

08:31:53.960 --> 08:31:59.900
Well, and your tour I'm very happy to hit the creature, I think that they're gonna let these tier ones go.

08:32:05.080 --> 08:32:09.880
Kala's getting a fair bit again, just like that last time that he played the Enchantress,

08:32:09.880 --> 08:32:13.600
just being annoying with the creeps, pushing them down the lanes, forcing someone to respond

08:32:13.600 --> 08:32:14.600
to it.

08:32:14.600 --> 08:32:16.200
He scaled pretty well that last game on the edge.

08:32:16.200 --> 08:32:20.040
He was very annoying with how much damage he was doing, even onto some of these cores.

08:32:20.040 --> 08:32:25.600
That was Collapses' Blink looking, so FaZe, Blade Mail, he's even gone for the Soul

08:32:25.600 --> 08:32:26.600
Ring, gone greedy.

08:32:26.600 --> 08:32:29.520
Gonna take a bit of time to have that Blink, so the window for Vision to make

08:32:29.520 --> 08:32:33.840
these aggressive moves is definitely there with notice tapping the Blink first.

08:32:33.840 --> 08:32:36.840
I'm not afraid to fly around there. Collapses. Got to be careful.

08:32:36.840 --> 08:32:38.840
Wallace.

08:32:38.840 --> 08:32:40.840
He could poke him.

08:32:40.840 --> 08:32:41.840
And Night Blast is closing in.

08:32:41.840 --> 08:32:42.840
He might reach.

08:32:42.840 --> 08:32:44.840
Collapses far enough away to survive.

08:32:44.840 --> 08:32:46.840
Because he grew off to the side, though. He's in trouble.

08:32:46.840 --> 08:32:48.840
He'll get the shots out and try and block him off.

08:32:48.840 --> 08:32:50.840
He'll have a snowball to buy a bit more time,

08:32:50.840 --> 08:32:52.840
but with the four of them chasing him out,

08:32:52.840 --> 08:32:54.840
no way out of this for root.

08:32:55.840 --> 08:32:58.840
It's going to be so much overwhelming physical damage in this game.

08:32:58.840 --> 08:33:00.840
Even though there is this Tera Blade,

08:33:00.840 --> 08:33:02.840
it's good for him to have this armor.

08:33:02.840 --> 08:33:07.000
but the rest of his heroes are definitely going to be struggling at that front couple disconnects

08:33:08.040 --> 08:33:10.040
happen here

08:33:10.920 --> 08:33:15.640
Mid-game team fights eyes on the slaughter eyes on the pango see what spirit wants to do

08:33:16.200 --> 08:33:18.200
Oh, okay, so they don't see

08:33:19.160 --> 08:33:22.760
Uh-oh, well, they're invisible a quick turn off and on again should fix that

08:33:23.000 --> 08:33:25.960
It's a pretty important game to see those shards too when you're playing with pango

08:33:26.280 --> 08:33:29.400
Does that shard can trip up the rolling thunder pretty hard in the mid game

08:33:29.400 --> 08:33:33.400
I don't know if the offspouts you definitely want to see but...

08:33:33.400 --> 08:33:37.400
Well, not only the Aubrey Connect does fix that.

08:33:37.400 --> 08:33:41.400
Hopefully things should be set.

08:33:41.400 --> 08:33:45.400
Find out in the next team fight.

08:33:45.400 --> 08:33:49.400
Both carries

08:33:49.400 --> 08:33:53.400
very close in the network. This game, the Satanics SF

08:33:53.400 --> 08:33:57.400
Yatoro's Terrablade, very close on both the levels

08:33:57.400 --> 08:34:06.520
gold. And it does feel like a bit of a different style that we're seeing from the last two games,

08:34:06.520 --> 08:34:10.760
right? Last games we had so many kills coming at the play. I feel like this one might have a bit

08:34:10.760 --> 08:34:14.680
more farming, especially from Spirit, like you're mentioning. They want to go for that hard scale,

08:34:14.680 --> 08:34:18.440
but Vision, I do believe they're going to play pretty oppressive. Look to just close the map,

08:34:18.440 --> 08:34:24.040
restrict the tier ones, limit the tower blade from finding places to farm. Much easier ways

08:34:24.040 --> 08:34:28.600
to execute these immediate jumps at this point with the start on the pangolin this start as he said

08:34:29.240 --> 08:34:33.080
dies on collapse to get that blink dagger to be able to turn the fights at this point start

08:34:38.840 --> 08:34:43.000
vision see how much action they can continue to bring before

08:34:43.000 --> 08:34:47.640
collapse is allowed to get that pick up because it is a very good blade mail game playing

08:34:47.640 --> 08:34:51.720
versus the shadow feed there is the save from the marsy but it's not the same exact as the

08:34:51.720 --> 08:34:58.400
You just have that invulnerability during it. You're still gonna be on the map being able to get hit when you do get rebounded and pushed away

08:35:02.160 --> 08:35:06.960
I'm happy to see these new heroes though so many different ones we're now seeing in this grand finals

08:35:07.400 --> 08:35:10.040
See if the idea this time ends up working around for my class

08:35:12.120 --> 08:35:16.960
And as always there's a lot to ask when we do see these new heroes. What why is no one else playing mossy?

08:35:16.960 --> 08:35:18.680
Well, what is the risk with this here?

08:35:18.680 --> 08:35:23.320
It's not in the best stable and it really isn't it doesn't really have too much team fight

08:35:23.320 --> 08:35:28.300
There's other heroes that are just better in replication of these saves and all that. This is just a ninth-class special

08:35:28.680 --> 08:35:32.800
And why is that what what about this hero suits nine classes playstyle as a sport?

08:35:32.840 --> 08:35:37.000
It's just odd it can scale and and also I mean in particular for this game, right?

08:35:37.000 --> 08:35:39.120
It's a gap closer when they were seeing the natures profit

08:35:39.120 --> 08:35:42.880
They wanted that gap close to be able to bring the slaughter in even though the lanes have ended up being switched up

08:35:42.880 --> 08:35:47.360
It still has that same potential to gap close get on top of something that doesn't like to get on top

08:35:48.680 --> 08:35:55.560
But as you see, some of these heroes can be even underrated.

08:35:55.560 --> 08:35:58.720
We saw that disruptor absolutely owned in the game.

08:35:58.720 --> 08:36:00.220
Could be some similar things.

08:36:00.220 --> 08:36:03.920
If he just gets a rebound save in some of these moves, it could be absolutely everything.

08:36:03.920 --> 08:36:08.760
And I don't know what last game as well, the pivot for the support axe from Ruth, that

08:36:08.760 --> 08:36:09.760
nearly worked out.

08:36:09.760 --> 08:36:14.840
So innovation, definitely the name of the game here in this Grand Finals.

08:36:14.840 --> 08:36:19.940
Vision, in all this downtime they are farming a bit harder here even though we're talking about Spirit they're happy to

08:36:19.940 --> 08:36:23.500
They're content to hit some of these creeps. It's Vision getting more out of the map at the moment

08:36:24.220 --> 08:36:29.540
So then with this blink dagger and blade mail done on collapse. Do you want to see Spirit try for a play?

08:36:29.540 --> 08:36:31.100
Yeah, absolutely

08:36:31.100 --> 08:36:34.020
They almost have blink on Rue as well too. So they do get a kill

08:36:34.020 --> 08:36:35.980
They'll have double blink daggers to go through these fights

08:36:35.980 --> 08:36:40.100
So right now let's see if Vision is prepared for the move. Night class has to hug Satanic

08:36:40.100 --> 08:36:42.100
See what he can get.

08:36:42.100 --> 08:36:43.100
See Tanya's gonna show.

08:36:43.100 --> 08:36:45.600
He's got the backup set up behind him.

08:36:45.600 --> 08:36:46.600
They're beating this move.

08:36:46.600 --> 08:36:48.100
Bit of a bait.

08:36:48.100 --> 08:36:50.100
Two spirit fall for this.

08:36:50.100 --> 08:36:51.100
Not me.

08:36:51.100 --> 08:36:52.100
Doesn't look like they will.

08:36:52.100 --> 08:36:54.100
He's been spotted out to the side.

08:36:54.100 --> 08:36:56.100
Waiting around the room to get a haste.

08:36:56.100 --> 08:36:57.600
They won't jump in on this.

08:36:57.600 --> 08:36:59.600
They know the vision is setting up for some sort of counter-plan.

08:36:59.600 --> 08:37:00.600
Not me.

08:37:00.600 --> 08:37:02.100
Wait for the tumblass toy.

08:37:02.100 --> 08:37:03.100
What the?

08:37:03.100 --> 08:37:04.100
See?

08:37:04.100 --> 08:37:06.600
Bit see him coming so they did have a moment to build the presser there.

08:37:06.600 --> 08:37:08.100
But still dodging it away.

08:37:08.100 --> 08:37:13.700
Notice now also has the shard, so very big damage potential for the side of Vision in these next upcoming fights.

08:37:15.900 --> 08:37:17.700
Still easier for them to take the fights.

08:37:19.500 --> 08:37:24.300
Spirit won't hemorrhage anything though, they don't fall for the bait play that Vision was setting up.

08:37:24.300 --> 08:37:29.000
But they'll maybe finish off this tower with the Illusion, Illusions vs. Illusions.

08:37:30.300 --> 08:37:31.200
Potenix wins.

08:37:31.400 --> 08:37:31.900
Tower.

08:37:32.500 --> 08:37:34.400
Nanklos, can you get the deny?

08:37:34.600 --> 08:37:36.600
Eh, eh, not quite, not.

08:37:36.600 --> 08:37:37.640
Preach will finish the job.

08:37:37.640 --> 08:37:39.140
I'm not quite able to connect.

08:37:39.140 --> 08:37:43.240
The blink dagger done for the tossed blink is still far away for 9th class.

08:37:43.960 --> 08:37:48.520
So now Spirit, much easier access to look for fights themselves as well, two versus vision.

08:37:48.520 --> 08:37:52.440
But the team fight, still difficult when they have the numbers on the side of vision.

08:37:52.440 --> 08:37:54.360
Spirit wants to pop a target first.

08:37:56.920 --> 08:37:59.160
Through these quiet moments.

08:38:00.200 --> 08:38:04.920
You see Satanic farming just a little bit quicker than Yatsura in this down time.

08:38:04.920 --> 08:38:06.920
I like watching, look at Nifus.

08:38:06.920 --> 08:38:08.920
He's just hugging him.

08:38:08.920 --> 08:38:10.920
Not moving from the side of Satanic,

08:38:10.920 --> 08:38:12.920
because if there's a move that comes out,

08:38:12.920 --> 08:38:14.920
he can bail him out of it with this rebound.

08:38:14.920 --> 08:38:16.920
He's starting to get points in the bodyguard as well too,

08:38:16.920 --> 08:38:19.920
so the extra bonus that Satanic's going to have.

08:38:19.920 --> 08:38:21.920
And it is the most likely move, right?

08:38:21.920 --> 08:38:24.920
Spirit, disappear off the map, go for some sort of smoke play.

08:38:24.920 --> 08:38:27.920
You know that that top target, it's going to be Satanic.

08:38:27.920 --> 08:38:28.920
100%.

08:38:28.920 --> 08:38:31.920
This bodyguard, I'm going to watch to see how much it can do in this game too,

08:38:31.920 --> 08:38:33.920
because Satanic, unlike Itoro, doesn't know the master madness,

08:38:33.920 --> 08:38:38.920
So he will have that life steal coming from the Marcy in the fights. See how much that actually matters.

08:38:39.920 --> 08:38:44.920
Here we go, Spirit, ready to attempt another smite. Both teams keep the fight though.

08:38:46.920 --> 08:38:52.920
Vision, so far been very prepared for these sort of plays. And no one has a full agonist for this next fight too.

08:38:52.920 --> 08:38:54.920
He might be big priority number one.

08:38:54.920 --> 08:38:55.920
Number one.

08:38:58.920 --> 08:39:00.920
It's the questions. Do they kill him in a call?

08:39:00.920 --> 08:39:01.920
You can notice.

08:39:01.920 --> 08:39:03.920
Line with the call and the blade mail up.

08:39:03.920 --> 08:39:06.920
If the punch, the snowball, the controls, it doesn't cut him a little early,

08:39:06.920 --> 08:39:09.920
but it doesn't matter. The damage enough to help bring him down.

08:39:09.920 --> 08:39:10.920
Now what?

08:39:10.920 --> 08:39:12.920
Dr. Brawl, he's done stuff.

08:39:12.920 --> 08:39:14.920
Bound his way over to watch the turret.

08:39:14.920 --> 08:39:16.920
The turret does not have mana for a potential sundar.

08:39:16.920 --> 08:39:19.920
Doesn't matter though. Vision, they still hold back away from the terribly.

08:39:19.920 --> 08:39:21.920
So they'll offer it for no one to go for the full commitment,

08:39:21.920 --> 08:39:23.920
but it's an arcade rune, so we'll just be able to Brawl,

08:39:23.920 --> 08:39:27.260
self out. Nice kill there from Spirit finding the angle onto the Slardar there.

08:39:27.260 --> 08:39:32.840
Closing the gap on the gold. This is how they want to take the fight. They don't

08:39:32.840 --> 08:39:35.460
want to take head-on team fights. They want to kill one target first and then

08:39:35.460 --> 08:39:41.280
potentially look for the catch afterwards. Notice being slowed down.

08:39:41.280 --> 08:39:44.280
collapse now, hide network with that slardar

08:39:55.280 --> 08:39:56.280
panic

08:39:56.280 --> 08:40:00.280
upon the top side, my class can hear your buddy, and he's there

08:40:00.280 --> 08:40:02.280
I use a ways that

08:40:03.280 --> 08:40:07.280
and both sides in this game, having some clear BKB piercing disables of course

08:40:07.280 --> 08:40:09.280
something we always do like to see

08:40:09.280 --> 08:40:14.020
Lockdown some of these target's hard. We won't probably see PKBs coming out from the cores in this game though

08:40:14.440 --> 08:40:18.120
Satanic and your Toro likely to just skip from the two way later stages again

08:40:19.280 --> 08:40:22.160
There's a lot that goes through it. Look at this room

08:40:23.280 --> 08:40:29.680
Right next to the but nine class is ready to say non-class sword. He's going to get the dispose brain into the crush jump from notice

08:40:30.800 --> 08:40:36.820
Just catching a glimpse of him as he tries to get out of get the blink off, but with no TP

08:40:36.820 --> 08:40:39.820
He proved very, very dead.

08:40:40.820 --> 08:40:42.820
He peaked to the mid lane through the fight as well.

08:40:42.820 --> 08:40:45.820
Carlos has got the chase down on a not me.

08:40:45.820 --> 08:40:47.820
Down around 40 being used.

08:40:47.820 --> 08:40:50.820
Chris Brown will stop Carlos. Carlos is going to come up with a call.

08:40:50.820 --> 08:40:54.820
Has to jump on towards the pango. The fear comes out as well, but Nyclas takes it back to the side.

08:40:54.820 --> 08:40:58.820
No, he's going in the river. Not the place that you want to be as a nature of profit.

08:40:58.820 --> 08:41:02.820
Down there on the low ground. They just turn, kill off the mid instead.

08:41:02.820 --> 08:41:06.060
instead there's an ambitious move from spirit to go up for the play oh my god

08:41:06.060 --> 08:41:09.120
collapse almost gets caught there from the distiller spaces is going to go

08:41:09.120 --> 08:41:12.580
straight for the roast they have so much minus armor likely to be able to bring it

08:41:12.580 --> 08:41:16.320
down in time 30 seconds still till MP met us still on a medicine coming back up

08:41:16.320 --> 08:41:20.520
it's very they're not in the area for this they can't fight right now and let's

08:41:20.520 --> 08:41:24.120
have to let these objectives fall to vision what puppy was talking about you

08:41:24.120 --> 08:41:28.080
know that heavy team fight and bang is that this is as if Harrison and Laurel's playing mistakes is

08:41:28.080 --> 08:41:30.080
And especially when he's cool like that.

08:41:30.080 --> 08:41:33.080
He's being way too aggressive in the river as well too.

08:41:33.080 --> 08:41:36.080
Trying to get that catch onto this kill.

08:41:36.080 --> 08:41:39.080
Now Satanic has an Aegis to play with and out.

08:41:39.080 --> 08:41:42.080
Even more so where they have that teamfight advantage.

08:41:42.080 --> 08:41:45.080
Where they have the second life on him.

08:41:45.080 --> 08:41:48.080
Good one to get very, very involved.

08:41:48.080 --> 08:41:51.080
I think this Marci is actually going to come in really cool.

08:41:51.080 --> 08:41:52.080
I like the Marci.

08:41:52.080 --> 08:41:53.080
I like it quite a bit.

08:41:53.080 --> 08:41:55.080
We've seen, you know, not obviously at this international,

08:41:55.080 --> 08:41:59.880
but many times before in the past nine class show us some fantastic stuff with his mossy

08:42:00.120 --> 08:42:02.840
It's it might not be the most crazy flashy stuff where he's you know

08:42:02.840 --> 08:42:05.240
His coddle where he's popping off taking over the game

08:42:05.400 --> 08:42:09.480
But he's going to make satanic look that much better in the game with the body guards with the three bounce saves

08:42:09.640 --> 08:42:14.920
And he's about to have that blink dagger. So matching the blink all through his timing not by not by too bad touch

08:42:19.880 --> 08:42:23.320
Butterfly for satanic also in this game going to be a big pickup

08:42:23.320 --> 08:42:30.600
And the the reason I mentioned in the Marseille more so as well besides just that rebound the bodyguard when it's something like an SF

08:42:30.600 --> 08:42:36.020
Is playing versus axe was this blade mail that bodyguard that life steal absolutely will come into play

08:42:36.040 --> 08:42:42.120
He went down during cool. Maybe if lull and Yatoro are around, but if they don't oppose to

08:42:42.640 --> 08:42:46.120
Punching into him Satanic will very likely survive through the jump

08:42:46.120 --> 08:42:57.080
We saw a similar push that Spirit was doing in the last game, but they didn't have their

08:42:57.080 --> 08:43:00.780
full squad with the Shadow Fiend, so Vision looking to apply this pressure with all the

08:43:00.780 --> 08:43:02.540
assistance as well.

08:43:02.540 --> 08:43:07.700
Spirit, looks like they're not even going to try to go for the reaction, anticipating

08:43:07.700 --> 08:43:10.220
that everybody on Vision is set up at the moment here.

08:43:10.220 --> 08:43:15.300
I can only know right now that the decision to fight is going to be pretty much down

08:43:15.300 --> 08:43:17.300
to the calls that Yatora makes.

08:43:17.300 --> 08:43:19.300
Yatora is not ready to go.

08:43:19.300 --> 08:43:21.300
They do not want to turn up.

08:43:21.300 --> 08:43:23.300
Yeah, very specific conditions to look for those fights.

08:43:23.300 --> 08:43:27.300
Rue has the snowball at the blink.

08:43:27.300 --> 08:43:30.300
But he is here, so he's all exactly where he is.

08:43:30.300 --> 08:43:33.300
And notice is going to be able to continue the chase down in the river.

08:43:33.300 --> 08:43:36.300
Shards will block him off, but he gets around.

08:43:36.300 --> 08:43:39.300
Rue will have blink again in a few seconds.

08:43:39.300 --> 08:43:40.300
The jump's already there.

08:43:40.300 --> 08:43:41.300
Back on line from notice.

08:43:41.300 --> 08:43:43.300
They do manage to beat 9 class in a group.

08:43:43.300 --> 08:43:44.260
How's your life?

08:43:44.260 --> 08:43:45.100
I'm Rue Lips.

08:43:45.100 --> 08:43:45.600
What?

08:43:45.600 --> 08:43:46.540
They couldn't kill him.

08:43:46.540 --> 08:43:48.140
I'm Rue actually having the backup coming over

08:43:48.140 --> 08:43:49.260
ready to join him.

08:43:49.260 --> 08:43:51.580
Those are some beautiful individual plays coming in

08:43:51.580 --> 08:43:53.140
from Rue just stalling out notice.

08:43:53.140 --> 08:43:55.020
I thought he was going to die for sure there.

08:43:55.020 --> 08:43:57.740
Nine class ends up being the catch.

08:43:57.740 --> 08:43:59.180
Toro turns up and gets a kill.

08:43:59.180 --> 08:44:02.100
Quick little man of play for him.

08:44:02.100 --> 08:44:05.380
Butterfly now finished up for Satanic.

08:44:05.380 --> 08:44:06.660
This is a very strong timing.

08:44:06.660 --> 08:44:08.620
I mean, having that in this matchup, you know,

08:44:08.620 --> 08:44:10.660
your Toro is not really going to be

08:44:10.660 --> 08:44:14.420
to fit any sort of true strike into his build any time of the time. He's gonna have to hope

08:44:14.420 --> 08:44:18.100
for that serrated ship in particular around that tier 3 neutral if he can't get the RNG

08:44:18.100 --> 08:44:23.820
for it. Ah, Sakenic is super deep right now. He's got the jump on Nightclash, so the backup

08:44:23.820 --> 08:44:26.860
is gone for Saitanik, who does of course still have Saitanik, so he'll have two

08:44:26.860 --> 08:44:30.940
lights to play with. Notice him with a blink crush onto Laos, slide forward for

08:44:30.940 --> 08:44:35.620
Saitanik, Laos dying again immediately at the front of these fights. He is just

08:44:35.620 --> 08:44:41.020
So, so squishy! It seems like it's impossible for him to play these teamfights.

08:44:41.020 --> 08:44:43.220
He turns up, he dies immediately, fuck!

08:44:43.220 --> 08:44:48.020
Laurel could end up being a pretty big liability for the team if he just doesn't continue to get this scale.

08:44:48.020 --> 08:44:50.820
It shows up multiple times and just dies in an instant.

08:44:50.820 --> 08:44:55.020
Yatoro's meta was ending, so maybe a bit of a mis-free there that they should go in or not.

08:44:55.020 --> 08:44:58.620
Yatoro was like, I'm getting out immediately after getting a kill, because the meta's wearing down.

08:44:58.620 --> 08:45:01.420
I mean, what do you sort of do as the Nates of Prophet in these sort of situations?

08:45:01.420 --> 08:45:03.020
You just not turn up to the fight?

08:45:03.020 --> 08:45:07.700
I see he's queuing up like five different items to try to think how he can fix this.

08:45:07.700 --> 08:45:09.860
He's a BGB? Nope, that's not going to help me.

08:45:09.860 --> 08:45:12.740
Now still we get physical, but he does need it because there's so much control.

08:45:12.740 --> 08:45:15.220
So it's tough to itemize for this NP.

08:45:15.220 --> 08:45:18.820
So far as we've seen some of these leaders, when they're playing versus all this lightest armor,

08:45:18.820 --> 08:45:20.860
big push coming in from vision.

08:45:20.860 --> 08:45:22.380
They're seeing a window to be able to get around.

08:45:22.380 --> 08:45:25.020
I mean, they're so strong around this butterfly timing of the Static.

08:45:25.020 --> 08:45:26.020
It's phenomenal.

08:45:26.020 --> 08:45:27.780
And there's no matter the call. We'll come out.

08:45:27.780 --> 08:45:29.380
But notice, he's up in the crush on the two of them.

08:45:29.380 --> 08:45:32.260
Catch the tutorial, tutorial, puts the mantra and backs on for no one.

08:45:32.260 --> 08:45:34.580
He's ready to roll in deep with the rolling thunder.

08:45:35.220 --> 08:45:37.700
Collapse, BKB him back away.

08:45:37.940 --> 08:45:39.340
And it's 50 seconds still.

08:45:39.340 --> 08:45:41.300
Toro stepping back up onto the car list.

08:45:41.300 --> 08:45:44.940
They get the enchantress, Rue, trying to see if he can catch more from this.

08:45:45.180 --> 08:45:48.500
Toro, the surround, Satanic, that's going to be Satanic, get the one.

08:45:48.500 --> 08:45:52.220
Not he's gone, no, no, she's getting to the BKB, house just litter away.

08:45:52.340 --> 08:45:53.820
Can they keep Satanic safe?

08:45:53.820 --> 08:45:56.540
Satanic will go for the right wheel into the TP.

08:45:56.540 --> 08:45:57.740
They want to get out of this vision.

08:45:57.740 --> 08:45:59.380
and they don't want to stick around anymore.

08:45:59.380 --> 08:46:01.900
The catch notice, he's not going to get the chance for the TP.

08:46:01.900 --> 08:46:04.380
The dun comes through from Collapse Spirit.

08:46:04.380 --> 08:46:05.420
Now push back.

08:46:05.420 --> 08:46:07.740
The meta comes right back up during the fight there.

08:46:07.740 --> 08:46:09.980
He's got the Scotty also, so your Toro,

08:46:09.980 --> 08:46:11.500
he is incredibly tanky.

08:46:11.500 --> 08:46:13.380
You can see the S steps like, OK, I'd butterfly,

08:46:13.380 --> 08:46:14.460
but hits him once or twice.

08:46:14.460 --> 08:46:17.780
He's like, wait a minute, this TP is insanely strong.

08:46:17.780 --> 08:46:19.900
Vision tried to find a winner to go for this push here,

08:46:19.900 --> 08:46:21.540
but they get counteractive from the buyback

08:46:21.540 --> 08:46:25.300
from not being very quickly there.

08:46:25.300 --> 08:46:31.380
And Spirit's draft, sure, for Laurel, could be some difficulty, but they do scale extremely hard to scale.

08:46:31.380 --> 08:46:33.500
The greed can absolutely pay off.

08:46:35.060 --> 08:46:40.380
Vision really wanted to get some type of Rax advantage there with this Aegis usage, not quite able to just yet there.

08:46:40.940 --> 08:46:42.860
And I quite like this as well, if Laurel goes for it.

08:46:42.860 --> 08:46:46.380
Relative to the early Ags pick up, we don't really see this.

08:46:46.380 --> 08:46:51.900
I want to say now, of all the Nature Prophet games, obviously a lot of the times it's carrying, searching, much less likely to see something like an Ags pick up.

08:46:51.900 --> 08:46:54.940
But even when it's in the mid, we don't get the agonimus being picked up.

08:46:54.940 --> 08:46:58.280
There was a time when... Who was it? It was Liquid, I think, when they had Xyre?

08:46:58.280 --> 08:47:01.220
I remember he was buying this a lot and you're just playing that...

08:47:01.220 --> 08:47:06.100
You're the anti-carry, right? Because you apply this AoE disarm onto multiple different heroes, and...

08:47:06.100 --> 08:47:11.260
As we mentioned for Vision, it's all physical damage. If they're all disarmed, there ain't no damage.

08:47:11.260 --> 08:47:15.300
So, a pretty cool approach is if he does pivot toward that way. Cool.

08:47:15.300 --> 08:47:19.920
And I think Spirit knows, right? If they can just keep this game going, they're gonna have that crazy scaling.

08:47:19.920 --> 08:47:25.160
Yeah, they believe in you, you're toward to carry this one and allow it to be the backup carry.

08:47:26.440 --> 08:47:29.120
Vision, looking to continue this pressure here.

08:47:29.720 --> 08:47:35.280
Level 19 on Satanic, still standing strong with his butterfly, very close to having the full Satanic himself.

08:47:40.960 --> 08:47:48.560
In 2k lead at the moment for Vision, I anticipate that they wanted to get a bit more out of this mid game with their teamfight advantage.

08:47:49.920 --> 08:47:56.240
Well, of course, lots of potential for them to also continue with this scale, as no one

08:47:56.240 --> 08:47:57.240
can continue as well.

08:47:57.240 --> 08:47:58.240
Simply for notice, Olympic Agonyms.

08:47:58.240 --> 08:48:06.280
I think we're truly in for a treat this game as well, too.

08:48:06.280 --> 08:48:10.480
These teams just on such even footing, matching each other's movements.

08:48:10.480 --> 08:48:14.920
Sure, this one, not 29 kills at the 29-minute mark that we did see last time from one

08:48:14.920 --> 08:48:18.920
but still very impressive little macro plays that both teams are doing.

08:48:21.920 --> 08:48:23.920
And in terms of timings, in a minute.

08:48:23.920 --> 08:48:25.920
No one.

08:48:25.920 --> 08:48:27.920
Don't get bru hair.

08:48:31.920 --> 08:48:32.920
In terms of timings, you were saying?

08:48:32.920 --> 08:48:34.920
If you're vision, what are you waiting for next?

08:48:34.920 --> 08:48:36.920
Is it sort of the case of just waiting for next?

08:48:36.920 --> 08:48:39.920
Roshan, are you able to still try and force a fight before the roast?

08:48:39.920 --> 08:48:42.920
I think you take any fight you can take, but you want to fight around that roast,

08:48:42.920 --> 08:48:45.600
on that Roche especially too. You just have to be very aware of the positioning.

08:48:45.600 --> 08:48:50.060
Collapsed now does have the BKB as well too. It's eyes on Yatoro right? If you can catch

08:48:50.060 --> 08:48:54.440
Yatoro and kill him at the start of the fights, Spirit's entire fight just completely disappears.

08:48:54.440 --> 08:48:58.200
So that's the main thing for Vision I would say. It's just dealing with Yatoro.

08:48:58.200 --> 08:49:02.120
Yatoro now, cool, actually goes for the BKB this game. I thought he would do it

08:49:02.120 --> 08:49:05.080
last game a little earlier too. He went for the MKB, he went for the Greed. I'm

08:49:05.080 --> 08:49:08.440
glad he didn't go that greedy this game.

08:49:08.440 --> 08:49:11.800
These two iron timings are going to give them a pretty good chance to fight. So

08:49:11.800 --> 08:49:14.880
We see the AGS now done on LAL.

08:49:15.200 --> 08:49:17.200
Oh, they're very strong right now in Zatani.

08:49:18.840 --> 08:49:20.840
He's in the danger territory right now, Jorah.

08:49:21.760 --> 08:49:23.520
Gonna be ready to start going for him with the Mets.

08:49:23.520 --> 08:49:25.600
They do have the rebound to take him out to the side.

08:49:25.600 --> 08:49:27.840
There's the AGS wrapped in H coming in with the entangle catch.

08:49:27.840 --> 08:49:29.240
Two of them all. Takes out Nightglass.

08:49:29.240 --> 08:49:31.640
Collapse! He can really come in with a VKB and the play-bound is caught.

08:49:31.640 --> 08:49:33.640
Zatani! Zatani got him down!

08:49:33.640 --> 08:49:35.640
And the Taurant breaks in the damage.

08:49:35.640 --> 08:49:36.800
They're ready to try for more.

08:49:36.800 --> 08:49:39.960
Punch up on the Notes controlling through the VKB.

08:49:39.960 --> 08:49:41.960
They'll still be able to slither away.

08:49:41.960 --> 08:49:46.960
But at defensive BKB, you're seeing Spirit ready to fight Yatoro standing strong.

08:49:46.960 --> 08:49:52.960
And then just a little bit of a trip up. The axe breath of nature just holding for him only momentarily,

08:49:52.960 --> 08:49:57.960
but enough to sort of allow collapse to continue to close in and have that chance to get the jump call

08:49:57.960 --> 08:50:01.960
to lock down Satanic and allow Yatoro to bring him down.

08:50:01.960 --> 08:50:04.960
Satanic now, even though it doesn't feel great in this step of game because there's things to go through

08:50:04.960 --> 08:50:06.960
and he does have to go for BKB as well.

08:50:06.960 --> 08:50:12.000
the control is going to start to be problematic. Spirit starting to gain quite a bit of control in this game.

08:50:12.000 --> 08:50:18.000
Nitoro did get the serrated chip, of course, too, so he is be able to bypass that butterfly occasionally.

08:50:18.000 --> 08:50:23.500
Absolutely see it coming into play there. And Night Classic really get bailable away the first time with the rebound.

08:50:23.500 --> 08:50:26.000
He ends up dying and they still can chase forward for it.

08:50:28.000 --> 08:50:31.000
Atcrasher feels like it's building up quickly here on position.

08:50:31.000 --> 08:50:35.000
In these last few moments, Spirit gaining hefty momentum.

08:50:35.000 --> 08:50:40.000
Yeah, I mean, I think it really is from those two time and getting the the BKP at this point in the bill theater

08:50:40.200 --> 08:50:45.260
Having this acronyms on loves nature profit. It sort of allows them to play to a timing the vision

08:50:45.260 --> 08:50:49.640
I don't know if they're necessarily prepared. No, I don't think you anticipate this build on the nature's profit by any means

08:50:49.640 --> 08:50:51.640
I it's something quite rare to see

08:50:52.160 --> 08:50:56.920
Let's go carry strong in this game versus the literal all physical damage draft of vision

08:50:57.280 --> 08:51:01.180
There's a very good answer versus now and just super disruptive in these team fights

08:51:01.180 --> 08:51:05.220
They made it through that hard moment of the lack of teamfight now the wrath of base. That's true

08:51:05.220 --> 08:51:09.860
That is a team that is the team fight. They were missing they've managed to find it here with this bill from law

08:51:09.980 --> 08:51:15.700
Now Quinn was meant to have multiple times now on the panel sometimes its items that are the important things for a lot of these

08:51:15.700 --> 08:51:19.920
Heroes to change the dynamic of how they play. That's exactly what this agonist does for MP

08:51:20.500 --> 08:51:25.180
He has a really strong talent at 22 that most don't take to most of them since they're playing carry

08:51:25.180 --> 08:51:28.900
They take the sprout damage, but in this game can absolutely just go for the wrath

08:51:28.900 --> 08:51:33.220
It's a 60 second pool and if you want to be really cool you go for the refresher octane bill

08:51:33.220 --> 08:51:35.220
We'll see if he's cool enough law

08:51:35.820 --> 08:51:40.580
Eventually, he'll be able to get it all. We'll get a free refresher. That's that that is true. Okay, so vision

08:51:40.580 --> 08:51:43.900
I think they have to fight. I don't think you can sit back at this point

08:51:43.980 --> 08:51:48.880
Let's bear play their game. They have a full AC on the slaughter notice to change the build but it's into this age

08:51:48.880 --> 08:51:50.880
It is it's not easy a

08:51:51.580 --> 08:51:54.780
Vision they're not afraid of a challenge the smoke comes in vision

08:51:54.780 --> 08:51:58.420
Looking for the wrap and the good eyes on collapse. It would be a huge jump to take the axe out

08:51:58.420 --> 08:52:01.740
You can get some pretty good calls and there's the initiation. We'll get the BKB off

08:52:02.060 --> 08:52:06.460
If you can get away from the rest of the chase of vision, Yatora ready to hold the high ground, put the better

08:52:06.460 --> 08:52:09.540
They turn towards him and fear will push back Satanic for now

08:52:09.740 --> 08:52:13.420
Yatora tried to bring down the Enchanters first through Carlos

08:52:13.420 --> 08:52:17.220
He will slowly but surely go down off to the side, not be dealt with

08:52:17.220 --> 08:52:20.020
Another wrap and it comes in, looking down the team

08:52:20.020 --> 08:52:23.100
Yatora steps up over to one, saying Tatek, but no, he's just sitting in the back.

08:52:23.100 --> 08:52:27.100
The Christ, he's stuck there, doesn't matter, Yatora still goes down for once.

08:52:27.100 --> 08:52:30.480
The collapse jumps in with a dunk, and he's ready to look for more.

08:52:30.480 --> 08:52:33.220
Pushing up to the high ground, Snowball saved by Tatek.

08:52:33.220 --> 08:52:36.300
Yatora is surrounded, saying Tatek is caught in the trees.

08:52:36.300 --> 08:52:39.020
But after back away, the scratch, the win's there.

08:52:39.020 --> 08:52:40.820
So Yatora is stepped away from the fight.

08:52:40.820 --> 08:52:42.820
He knows the fight now, it's over.

08:52:42.820 --> 08:52:45.660
They've got to run, they'll go for the TP, they'll get away.

08:52:45.660 --> 08:52:48.900
Vision, they survive through it and they're able to push him to spirit

08:52:48.900 --> 08:52:50.240
and take the team fight.

08:52:50.240 --> 08:52:51.600
They keep Satanic alive.

08:52:51.600 --> 08:52:52.700
It's all these little things.

08:52:52.700 --> 08:52:55.440
The bodyguard lifestyle with the Satanic as well, too.

08:52:55.440 --> 08:52:56.940
Everything coming into play there.

08:52:56.940 --> 08:53:00.080
They're able to distance him away from Yatoro.

08:53:00.080 --> 08:53:02.180
Spirit, they had the positional advantage there

08:53:02.180 --> 08:53:02.780
for a second there.

08:53:02.780 --> 08:53:03.740
They had the high ground.

08:53:03.740 --> 08:53:05.600
The rolling thunder was already expended.

08:53:05.600 --> 08:53:06.940
He was able to keep whaling on them,

08:53:06.940 --> 08:53:08.640
but they get the distancing there.

08:53:08.640 --> 08:53:12.640
That was beautiful execution from Vision.

08:53:12.640 --> 08:53:13.800
Watch this. Watch how they bail out.

08:53:13.800 --> 08:53:14.880
It's all about Satanic, right?

08:53:14.880 --> 08:53:16.040
So throw all the buffs on him.

08:53:16.040 --> 08:53:18.480
Watch nine class sitting on the sidelines,

08:53:18.480 --> 08:53:22.280
waiting for the moves to get that save when it looks scary for satanic for a

08:53:22.280 --> 08:53:25.440
second and I'll ask you doing the work and honestly the fact that vision where

08:53:25.440 --> 08:53:28.800
split as they were here it kind of works their favor because spirit you

08:53:28.800 --> 08:53:31.680
could sort of tell they didn't really know where to go for your torque he

08:53:31.680 --> 08:53:35.080
actually used a fair bit of time at the start to bring down the enchantress

08:53:35.080 --> 08:53:38.200
about the time he turns up to try and take down the rest of them they've

08:53:38.200 --> 08:53:42.000
got enough firepower and survivability to turn take the fight in their

08:53:42.000 --> 08:53:45.640
favor and your Tory can feel it here he's like guys we can't do this I've

08:53:45.640 --> 08:53:52.660
Gotta get out of this one. Oh, this is such absurdly high-skilled though that's a panic full MKB now to have to answer for the eventual butterfly

08:53:52.660 --> 08:53:56.160
I guess I eventually a total has the butterfly. He's got an MPB as it comes out

08:53:56.160 --> 08:53:59.140
That's huge that's it for satanic and they got the gen there right as well

08:53:59.140 --> 08:54:02.960
He did and I think it was actually so I missed all their apologies now

08:54:02.960 --> 08:54:05.880
I saw the replay he didn't actually end up getting the save from nine class

08:54:05.880 --> 08:54:10.160
I think it was due Collis's four snap that ended getting that positioning for satanic or it was his four

08:54:10.160 --> 08:54:13.340
One of the two I didn't see which one it was smoke up

08:54:13.880 --> 08:54:17.340
Ready to go again. I'm a vision. They're like if we can do that into an aegis

08:54:17.340 --> 08:54:19.540
Imagine what we can do into without an aegis

08:54:19.540 --> 08:54:25.620
Into an aegis and into a high ground positioning that Spirit had to they're gonna feel very strong after that last play vision

08:54:27.100 --> 08:54:30.600
Ready to go again. We're getting treated with such beautiful

08:54:33.100 --> 08:54:38.000
Less than just a 3k lead here at this point both teams battling it duking it out

08:54:40.160 --> 08:54:43.480
And as you said, Gatoro, he is the key to watch.

08:54:43.480 --> 08:54:45.880
He is everything for the side of spirit in this game.

08:54:45.880 --> 08:54:49.640
Meta is back up there, looking for the angle.

08:54:49.640 --> 08:54:51.640
That's it, showing in the mid.

08:54:51.640 --> 08:54:52.640
Crush.

08:54:52.640 --> 08:54:53.640
All right.

08:54:53.640 --> 08:54:56.640
We're going to see the cars.

08:54:56.640 --> 08:55:01.720
But to quickly take down the edge, the vision want to do anything without their

08:55:01.720 --> 08:55:02.720
enchantress.

08:55:02.720 --> 08:55:03.720
It doesn't look like it.

08:55:03.720 --> 08:55:06.320
They respect the fact that that pick-off's made.

08:55:06.320 --> 08:55:08.520
They weren't trying to fight all of you five.

08:55:08.520 --> 08:55:12.580
They didn't have to spend anything either on the side of Spirit to get that kill.

08:55:12.580 --> 08:55:14.080
They've got everything at the ready.

08:55:14.080 --> 08:55:15.080
Didn't even use the matter.

08:55:15.080 --> 08:55:17.080
Just used the Demon's Seal to close the gap.

08:55:17.080 --> 08:55:18.080
What's this, who?

08:55:18.080 --> 08:55:20.320
This is the concern as well for both sides.

08:55:20.320 --> 08:55:24.040
If you lose a team fight, the enemy, as long as they're carries up, I'm going to be

08:55:24.040 --> 08:55:25.040
able to push so fast.

08:55:25.040 --> 08:55:26.040
Yes.

08:55:26.040 --> 08:55:27.040
They killed these buildings in sync.

08:55:27.040 --> 08:55:29.040
Some of the fastest pushing items I think we're going to see.

08:55:29.040 --> 08:55:32.440
Listen, as you said too, having this double jab, they're able to take that one

08:55:32.440 --> 08:55:33.440
away.

08:55:33.440 --> 08:55:38.040
It's going to be big for the next upcoming movements in terms of map control.

08:55:38.040 --> 08:55:44.400
neck and neck again this game. And to pivot to, we did see right from our

08:55:44.400 --> 08:55:48.280
notice, going for this AC in this last teamfight, you absolutely could feel that

08:55:48.280 --> 08:55:52.080
overwhelming physical, even though it was at the airblade, with 50 armor, you

08:55:52.080 --> 08:55:55.480
started to see those right flicks coming from the SM. And I'm sort of going the

08:55:55.480 --> 08:55:58.560
other way as well, it was taking a long time for you to try to bring anyone down

08:55:58.560 --> 08:56:04.320
despite how far he is. So once that now Hydra's breath is complete, it's, you

08:56:04.320 --> 08:56:07.600
know, that's gonna help out a lot. It's on the way out on the chorea. The

08:56:07.600 --> 08:56:09.940
a good step up to the damage output, obviously, all right?

08:56:09.940 --> 08:56:12.960
And I mean, I could have said this now for 35 minutes,

08:56:12.960 --> 08:56:15.440
but what I was talking about, this isn't pretty much being

08:56:15.440 --> 08:56:15.940
all the time.

08:56:15.940 --> 08:56:16.900
Oh, no, it's just, so is Spirit.

08:56:16.900 --> 08:56:18.080
How you found Lyle?

08:56:18.080 --> 08:56:21.000
Well, we'll try and push it back and catch him in the Sprout.

08:56:21.000 --> 08:56:21.500
What is this?

08:56:21.500 --> 08:56:23.300
He's going to be careful, feels that Lyle might have

08:56:23.300 --> 08:56:23.800
backups.

08:56:23.800 --> 08:56:25.720
He doesn't want to try and push to finish the kill.

08:56:25.720 --> 08:56:26.640
Send inside Spirit.

08:56:26.640 --> 08:56:28.120
They'll look to see if they can catch the rest of Vision,

08:56:28.120 --> 08:56:29.860
split up, and no, he's already in with the jump

08:56:29.860 --> 08:56:30.520
on towards them.

08:56:30.520 --> 08:56:32.040
Commits him with the rolling thunder.

08:56:32.040 --> 08:56:33.320
They're going to find the Dark Willow.

08:56:33.320 --> 08:56:34.720
They've got the Yul's control on to Collapse.

08:56:34.720 --> 08:56:38.280
He has to put the VKB and step back.

08:56:38.280 --> 08:56:40.840
Toro, the wrap around Yutaro, here with the better monsters.

08:56:40.840 --> 08:56:43.340
Static, Static, Static tries to force away.

08:56:43.340 --> 08:56:45.920
He'll get the rep promotion for the VKBs after Yutaro.

08:56:45.920 --> 08:56:50.020
Static, he's thrown back by Nyclash, Nyclash, getting him out of there.

08:56:50.020 --> 08:56:50.820
He's back!

08:56:50.820 --> 08:56:52.780
Finally, let's fly through.

08:56:52.780 --> 08:56:54.620
Static will fall.

08:56:54.620 --> 08:56:56.620
How did Yutaro get that positioning?

08:56:56.620 --> 08:56:57.580
That was insane.

08:56:57.580 --> 08:57:01.420
Has the Hydro breath for the flight too, so it just grips the shadow.

08:57:01.420 --> 08:57:03.020
And they were so quick to make that move.

08:57:03.020 --> 08:57:06.140
They saw sort of that play that Nocchus went for down bottom onto LL,

08:57:06.140 --> 08:57:08.140
and they were like, well, we could go on them in the mid,

08:57:08.140 --> 08:57:11.020
try and force the chaos, and they succeed in doing so.

08:57:11.020 --> 08:57:13.740
At this point, there's no SF for a full minute.

08:57:13.740 --> 08:57:14.860
Are they going to close the game?

08:57:14.860 --> 08:57:15.820
They're going to go to your force.

08:57:15.820 --> 08:57:16.620
They're going to feel it.

08:57:16.620 --> 08:57:17.500
The clip was popped.

08:57:17.500 --> 08:57:19.660
They're going to pick up for the MKB, spend the money.

08:57:19.660 --> 08:57:21.500
He does not have the money for buyback.

08:57:21.500 --> 08:57:24.860
Yatoro knows that this is the opportunity to do serious damage

08:57:24.860 --> 08:57:26.540
and maybe even threaten the game.

08:57:27.020 --> 08:57:28.460
Oh, and they might be able to close it out.

08:57:28.460 --> 08:57:29.180
It's 50 seconds.

08:57:29.180 --> 08:57:30.380
And they say they've done it so fast.

08:57:30.380 --> 08:57:31.580
Nocchus, he's in for the cross.

08:57:31.580 --> 08:57:39.580
It's a big collapse, don't get in the cool connection to Nocice, Nocice turns towards Yatora, but he's gotta be careful, they hit son, the raft goes through, the route's there, Nocice is gone!

08:57:40.580 --> 08:57:44.580
Oh my god, I mean, Yatoro, how does he find that angle to get on top of them there?

08:57:44.580 --> 08:57:48.580
Nocice is gonna have to buy back, okay. Zero fours aren't dropping, oh one.

08:57:48.580 --> 08:57:52.580
A good angle here, but the Romington, they catch you by the middle of the carry, jump into the crush, that's Lall gone.

08:57:52.580 --> 08:57:53.580
Okay, they chase for more.

08:57:53.580 --> 08:57:56.580
Lall does have a buy back if he wants to make a crazy move.

08:57:56.580 --> 08:57:57.580
Yatora?

08:57:57.580 --> 08:57:58.580
That's still good.

08:57:58.580 --> 08:58:02.580
He's going to take him out of the 9th class and no one is going to try and jump forward to chase him towards him.

08:58:02.580 --> 08:58:04.580
They are coming down, because they collapsed!

08:58:04.580 --> 08:58:06.580
That's not going to happen! That's 9th class out!

08:58:06.580 --> 08:58:10.580
He keeps low and Yatoro say...

08:58:10.580 --> 08:58:12.580
Yatoro, he wants to go back in on this.

08:58:12.580 --> 08:58:14.580
He's looking towards no one, but the bash comes in for notice.

08:58:14.580 --> 08:58:16.580
Yatoro trying to stab his ground against the slardar.

08:58:16.580 --> 08:58:17.580
He's fighting!

08:58:17.580 --> 08:58:18.580
He's going to trade the bash in there!

08:58:18.580 --> 08:58:19.580
Yatoro and Lens!

08:58:19.580 --> 08:58:20.580
The uppercut!

08:58:20.580 --> 08:58:21.580
And the suffer!

08:58:21.580 --> 08:58:23.580
And he jumped back no matter!

08:58:23.580 --> 08:58:25.580
He's back up for the HP.

08:58:25.580 --> 08:58:27.780
B, the guy's still trying to pick him away.

08:58:27.780 --> 08:58:29.420
Blue, he's gonna be the sacrifice.

08:58:29.420 --> 08:58:30.700
Leave the toss behind.

08:58:30.700 --> 08:58:32.420
Get your taro blade out of there.

08:58:32.420 --> 08:58:34.860
Oh my god, he literally just got the manor.

08:58:34.860 --> 08:58:37.580
He was sitting at 25, just picks it up to that 15,

08:58:37.580 --> 08:58:40.700
gets the sundown as a losing, it saves him.

08:58:40.700 --> 08:58:42.580
Oh my goodness, they get double cheer for us.

08:58:42.580 --> 08:58:44.780
They'll get the rain tracks, not the melee,

08:58:44.780 --> 08:58:46.300
but forcing heavy buybacks.

08:58:46.300 --> 08:58:48.220
He didn't know it as well, expending his Laurel.

08:58:48.220 --> 08:58:49.460
Two big core buybacks.

08:58:49.460 --> 08:58:51.140
Laurel did buyback in it to make sure

08:58:51.140 --> 08:58:52.500
that he could protect his buddy.

08:58:52.500 --> 08:58:53.700
So that was used there,

08:58:53.700 --> 08:58:56.360
but a big hit spirit blowing open the game.

08:58:58.860 --> 08:59:00.340
And you can watch Sotanic in the fight,

08:59:00.340 --> 08:59:02.260
but we'll wait for this one again afterwards actually,

08:59:02.260 --> 08:59:03.100
chase forward.

08:59:05.220 --> 08:59:08.700
Just able to bail Yatoro out.

08:59:09.620 --> 08:59:11.540
Maybe if they got that Yatoro kill,

08:59:11.540 --> 08:59:13.480
things would have looked to be in a bit of a

08:59:13.480 --> 08:59:14.980
smoother spot off the defense,

08:59:14.980 --> 08:59:17.820
but not getting the terror blades as desperately

08:59:17.820 --> 08:59:19.780
as they tried, collapse, keeping him safe

08:59:19.780 --> 08:59:21.660
from that initial jump from nine-class.

08:59:21.660 --> 08:59:23.380
And at this point, even though notice

08:59:23.380 --> 08:59:29.120
get some top of him. Yatoro is so far. He's got so much armor. It's so hard to notice the finish of the job.

08:59:29.120 --> 08:59:33.220
And as you say, getting just enough air to get that Sunday playoff.

08:59:33.220 --> 08:59:35.960
It was literally, look at this. He just, he was the toggle to spend.

08:59:35.960 --> 08:59:36.680
He needed it.

08:59:36.680 --> 08:59:38.720
Yep. The Tread switch did it.

08:59:39.060 --> 08:59:40.400
I think he had no bet anyway without it.

08:59:40.400 --> 08:59:42.400
But it was still cool to see that he goes for the play.

08:59:42.400 --> 08:59:44.760
But he's anticipating these type of moves.

08:59:44.900 --> 08:59:48.040
I amassed it from Spirit. Yatoro now level 25.

08:59:48.360 --> 08:59:52.280
It's hard for Satanic. It's hard for SF in general to fight versus a TV.

08:59:52.280 --> 08:59:54.700
Without BKB, he's just getting, he can't lifesteal.

08:59:54.700 --> 08:59:57.160
They're gonna be ready to jump again, Satanic might not be ready for this.

08:59:57.660 --> 08:59:58.160
Collapse.

08:59:58.160 --> 08:59:58.660
It's quick.

08:59:58.660 --> 09:00:01.360
Oh, he's having a slide away from the range of the call.

09:00:01.360 --> 09:00:04.860
I mean, Satanic needs more help with these fights though, because he can't lifesteal.

09:00:05.300 --> 09:00:09.000
You're getting hit from the Scotty, you cannot turn and lifesteal with your Satanic.

09:00:09.600 --> 09:00:11.700
It's also getting robbed, of course, from the Kralas, but...

09:00:12.700 --> 09:00:15.580
My goodness, Spirit, looking to potentially close this down.

09:00:15.580 --> 09:00:16.540
I'm gonna go in again.

09:00:16.540 --> 09:00:17.700
Looking for another fight.

09:00:17.700 --> 09:00:21.200
They know that the buyback situation, it's not in a great spot for vision.

09:00:21.200 --> 09:00:28.200
They can find a big catch. They can put an end to this game spirit. No one.

09:00:28.200 --> 09:00:31.200
Careful.

09:00:32.200 --> 09:00:36.200
Such tense moments. These next moments of vision are everything.

09:00:36.200 --> 09:00:38.200
Collapsed.

09:00:38.200 --> 09:00:41.200
I give this a praise. That's a no one.

09:00:41.200 --> 09:00:45.200
But those quick reactions.

09:00:45.200 --> 09:00:48.200
What an absolutely insane game so far here.

09:00:48.200 --> 09:00:51.780
I mean, so in these teamfights, what do you do if you're vision?

09:00:51.780 --> 09:00:55.880
Is it sort of just a case then for Satanic to sort of, if he sees the metamorphosis come

09:00:55.880 --> 09:00:58.000
out, you have to just get out completely?

09:00:58.000 --> 09:01:01.520
Can you actually fight into your Torah when he has the metamorphosis up?

09:01:01.520 --> 09:01:02.760
It's hard to say exactly.

09:01:02.760 --> 09:01:06.200
This TB is something, it's a force to be reckoned with.

09:01:06.200 --> 09:01:07.780
They don't really have the best answers.

09:01:07.780 --> 09:01:09.440
Even the kiting factor isn't there.

09:01:09.440 --> 09:01:11.440
Satanic, the matchup in general, right?

09:01:11.440 --> 09:01:15.040
TB versus SF, it's heavily favored for TB once it starts getting to these points

09:01:15.040 --> 09:01:16.560
because he just has that range advantage.

09:01:16.560 --> 09:01:18.560
So I guess it's all-inning, right?

09:01:18.560 --> 09:01:22.480
They have to close the gap and fully all-in for Yatoro, and just somehow try to bring

09:01:22.480 --> 09:01:24.760
him down to that, but it's easier said than done.

09:01:24.760 --> 09:01:28.120
Especially now that his levels are starting to come in for him.

09:01:28.120 --> 09:01:30.760
He's got extra saving tools with the Satanic himself.

09:01:30.760 --> 09:01:34.560
And the Yatoro might just be able to get himself another Aegis here, ready for the

09:01:34.560 --> 09:01:35.560
push.

09:01:35.560 --> 09:01:38.120
The third Roshan is going to be that Refresher's Shard.

09:01:38.120 --> 09:01:40.040
On top of that, and always too, right?

09:01:40.040 --> 09:01:42.240
Yatoro, he can light steal in the fights.

09:01:42.240 --> 09:01:44.000
He can't be able to stand his ground.

09:01:44.000 --> 09:01:48.480
isn't that mitigation in the same type of factor. He also has a hard save with the toss

09:01:48.480 --> 09:01:53.280
potentially. He also has a blast too. Multiple different ways for it after bailing out now at

09:01:53.280 --> 09:01:58.480
this point. Together, chance of course, with the way the draft played out, you know,

09:01:58.480 --> 09:02:03.600
SF's taken early. They get to think through the whole draft, what carry to carry matchup

09:02:03.600 --> 09:02:07.520
they want to play with. And you know, if anyone's going to be the master of the SF and know

09:02:07.520 --> 09:02:12.000
exactly what the SF's going to be playing into, it's going to be Yatoro. And as we're seeing

09:02:12.000 --> 09:02:16.240
that matchup. Get to that point now this game. The sort of weakness that might have been there,

09:02:16.240 --> 09:02:20.240
because they had to make this pivot, put the nature's profit mid, and go for this greedy

09:02:20.240 --> 09:02:22.240
route, they've gotten completely through that.

09:02:22.240 --> 09:02:25.760
Yeah. I mean, the itemization for Laurel is genius, right? Just the agonies who don't

09:02:25.760 --> 09:02:30.000
see it as much anymore. It is absolutely making that difference to protect whole targets in place.

09:02:31.280 --> 09:02:34.240
If you had gone just straight right click build, right? They could have lost these mid-game

09:02:34.240 --> 09:02:37.360
teamfights super hard. The game could have just completely collapsed for them there. So

09:02:37.360 --> 09:02:39.860
So, it's gonna be everything for them.

09:02:39.860 --> 09:02:43.860
Talking about Aghanem's, what's the item Aghanem's picked up for Yatora?

09:02:43.860 --> 09:02:44.860
That's a blessing.

09:02:44.860 --> 09:02:48.260
It is the full blessing, so he started at use immediately, he's ready to go all in.

09:02:48.260 --> 09:02:53.060
Has that Aegis, of course, so Second Life is there and knows that there's gonna be

09:02:53.060 --> 09:02:56.940
the time, they're going to want to do something within the next two minutes or so, whilst

09:02:56.940 --> 09:02:59.580
these three buybacks are still unavailable for vision.

09:02:59.580 --> 09:03:02.500
It's just hard to see how they kill Yatora at this point, even through the one

09:03:02.500 --> 09:03:04.180
life as we saw in that top fight.

09:03:04.180 --> 09:03:09.600
have so many ways to protect even have that cheese of course too for the next

09:03:09.600 --> 09:03:14.740
fight that he can just really pass it over to him as well just another very

09:03:14.740 --> 09:03:19.660
very low death game for your tour only dying the once he has played this game

09:03:19.660 --> 09:03:22.740
absolutely flawless pretty much the series as well right even in the loss

09:03:22.740 --> 09:03:28.740
had a very impressive scoreline on his shadow being vision you can tell

09:03:28.740 --> 09:03:31.420
they're feeling that pressure now satanic has yet to really grown the

09:03:31.420 --> 09:03:43.080
next item. One failed defense away from losing the game. Spirit, your pivot and adaptation

09:03:43.080 --> 09:03:47.040
in this game has been beautiful to watch. Vision has taken some good fights but now

09:03:47.040 --> 09:03:53.940
this is our time to take this fight. Who's gonna be the one to go first? Get rid of the

09:03:53.940 --> 09:03:58.340
banner. Titanic's gotta be careful when your throw starts to get his hands on him

09:03:58.340 --> 09:04:01.860
like this. I heard him. A lot of damage, bringing down some half-baked people. So you know what,

09:04:01.860 --> 09:04:05.660
trying to get the backbite, but the BKB's out for collapse, get the call as well, on

09:04:05.660 --> 09:04:09.500
towards notice. Notice he's out to BKB, but the punch-up's down. Yatoro bringing in the

09:04:09.500 --> 09:04:14.340
damage, notice, trapped by the charge, notice, he's gone. Five acts still on call down

09:04:14.340 --> 09:04:18.020
for a minute and a half. It's just so hard for them to execute the fight. They roll

09:04:18.020 --> 09:04:21.620
in, they try anything there, but they just can't collapse. It's just too fast.

09:04:21.620 --> 09:04:26.340
I mean, who is gonna touch Yatoro? Who's gonna go for the jump? Nobody can get

09:04:26.340 --> 09:04:30.100
any way close to him right now as he's taken away the rest of the base.

09:04:30.100 --> 09:04:33.180
So that's where we get the call, there'll be the rebound to try and fail no one out of this.

09:04:33.180 --> 09:04:37.100
But he still tries back in, they're catching him off to the side.

09:04:37.100 --> 09:04:41.580
No one's there also without the flyback. It's so much need is called.

09:04:41.580 --> 09:04:44.420
Team Spirit take game three.

09:04:44.420 --> 09:04:47.700
That fight is big, where Yatoro gets this angle.

09:04:47.700 --> 09:04:50.740
They know that notice is going through this play on bottom

09:04:50.740 --> 09:04:53.540
and he just sandwiches on top of Sophanic.

09:04:53.540 --> 09:04:59.140
So Tandy couldn't attack. I think these last two fights he just has to spend the entire time trying to run away from this

09:04:59.140 --> 09:05:04.940
Terriblade, and he just can't. That's this matchup. It gets to this point. You can't get close to him. You can't get away from him.

09:05:04.940 --> 09:05:06.940
You're getting ripped to shreds, Yatoro.

09:05:07.340 --> 09:05:13.620
Absolutely beast performance from him. I mean wait wait wait, I have to hear right concerns about the fact that the Terriblade was left in the draft

09:05:14.180 --> 09:05:19.220
Vision, they felt that if it was gonna come in and the switch up had to happen with the nature pocket going mid

09:05:19.220 --> 09:05:22.820
that they'd have to, the counts, that they'd have to advantage in the teamfights,

09:05:22.820 --> 09:05:24.380
they just couldn't find enough of them.

09:05:24.380 --> 09:05:28.980
The game stagnates, it slowed down and Spirit are able to close it up.

09:05:28.980 --> 09:05:32.940
2-1 right now in this Grand Finals here at the International for Spirit.

09:05:34.220 --> 09:05:39.540
It is exactly what Loll was talking about in one of his winners interviews yesterday,

09:05:39.540 --> 09:05:42.940
where he said, we can play a late game, we can play it fast,

09:05:42.940 --> 09:05:46.420
we can play essentially whatever we want to be able to draw to themselves.

09:05:46.420 --> 09:05:50.320
and this time around, it really

09:05:50.320 --> 09:05:51.420
shows because we favored them

09:05:51.420 --> 09:05:53.320
each and every game into the

09:05:53.320 --> 09:05:54.320
laning phase and out of it.

09:05:54.320 --> 09:05:55.320
But this time around, it felt

09:05:55.320 --> 09:05:56.320
like, well, they're gonna have

09:05:56.320 --> 09:05:57.320
more of a competition at the

09:05:57.320 --> 09:05:58.320
end of the day when they very

09:05:58.320 --> 09:06:00.320
clearly live up to that and

09:06:00.320 --> 09:06:02.320
surpass it. Yeah, I think this

09:06:02.320 --> 09:06:04.320
is more what traditional spirit

09:06:04.320 --> 09:06:05.320
compared to I think the past

09:06:05.320 --> 09:06:06.320
couple of games like you said

09:06:06.320 --> 09:06:07.320
have been very much about

09:06:07.320 --> 09:06:08.320
early temple about winning

09:06:08.320 --> 09:06:09.320
lanes, a very different look

09:06:09.320 --> 09:06:10.320
that's more suited to the new

09:06:10.320 --> 09:06:12.320
supports. But this game was

09:06:12.320 --> 09:06:13.320
classic spirit. They've got

09:06:13.320 --> 09:06:14.320
the late game. They know

09:06:14.320 --> 09:06:15.320
they've got the lake and

09:06:15.320 --> 09:06:21.280
They're fighting. They're taking incredibly clutch fights and outplaying people and just buying their time because the clock is ticking vision

09:06:21.280 --> 09:06:23.400
Can hear it in their ear, but they can't do anything about it

09:06:24.320 --> 09:06:26.540
They're just amazing to watch at TI

09:06:26.540 --> 09:06:32.800
I mean their ability to recognize what they need to do to win games has been so consistent throughout the years that this time around

09:06:32.800 --> 09:06:36.320
It feels like they have the play to back up the vision in their mind in this game

09:06:36.320 --> 09:06:39.400
It was just about which carry could hit other people for longer

09:06:39.400 --> 09:06:43.640
Which team could enable the other carry to hit people for longer and team spirit?

09:06:43.640 --> 09:06:48.440
were able to isolate satanic in so many of these fights get the correct jump and make it so that

09:06:48.440 --> 09:06:53.560
he couldn't stand his ground as us often trunk into team spirit and eventually the game gets to

09:06:53.560 --> 09:06:58.680
the point where we see when it was making the final push on the high ground he is just standing there

09:06:58.680 --> 09:07:03.000
and sf is hitting him and each rebar isn't moving because all the damage on team vision

09:07:03.000 --> 09:07:08.200
side is physical and he just doesn't take physical damage it's one of tv's best traits

09:07:08.200 --> 09:07:12.920
has incredible armor and they abuse it to its full extent in the series i mean this is

09:07:12.920 --> 09:07:16.120
that moment that you're talking about where it feels like it may be spirit

09:07:16.120 --> 09:07:19.480
have overstepped a little bit by going straight for that throne which is a call

09:07:19.480 --> 09:07:23.160
I love to see I feel like it's incredibly bold especially in the grand finals

09:07:23.160 --> 09:07:27.000
and TV's just standing there he does not care at all whatever this slot is

09:07:27.000 --> 09:07:31.880
this year in 15 times it took 10 damage like it's generous yeah in fact like the

09:07:31.880 --> 09:07:35.240
the heroes like game is just it's completely psychotic in games like this

09:07:35.240 --> 09:07:39.720
and I think vision it's a weakness that it seems spirit are exposing that

09:07:39.720 --> 09:07:42.560
vision they don't like it when the enemy team has the late game they

09:07:42.560 --> 09:07:46.260
They are not doing well enough in lanes against Spirit compared to how they are against other

09:07:46.260 --> 09:07:47.260
teams.

09:07:47.260 --> 09:07:50.520
Spirit is surviving that early game, they're getting off to a decent upstart, the vision

09:07:50.520 --> 09:07:53.640
can't run them over, and then if Spirit's chilling with the late game then we've got

09:07:53.640 --> 09:07:54.640
some big problems.

09:07:54.640 --> 09:07:57.240
I also feel like Puppy talks about like the team fight superiority that they're going

09:07:57.240 --> 09:07:58.640
to have as the game progresses.

09:07:58.640 --> 09:08:00.760
But they borrow itemized around it, right?

09:08:00.760 --> 09:08:03.960
He bought the Agonyms on the Nature's Profit, it gives you this huge AoE of root

09:08:03.960 --> 09:08:05.560
on everything that the ulti hits.

09:08:05.560 --> 09:08:09.640
And it's just smart decisions like this that, you know, when Spirit are doing well,

09:08:09.640 --> 09:08:10.880
you can see why.

09:08:10.880 --> 09:08:14.320
They can overcome what they're lacking with their drafts through items.

09:08:14.320 --> 09:08:18.440
They're finding ways to make things come together even when they don't have those natural

09:08:18.440 --> 09:08:20.960
tools in the hero.

09:08:20.960 --> 09:08:26.240
I'm still just so impressed with what was happening in the carry to carry matchup because

09:08:26.240 --> 09:08:29.960
we love to see what your Toro can bring in a TI finals.

09:08:29.960 --> 09:08:33.600
Psyk Tannik, it's his first time and he has been the shining light time and time

09:08:33.600 --> 09:08:36.040
again in every game full of vision.

09:08:36.040 --> 09:08:39.080
This time around they wanted to put the same faith in there and for the earlier part

09:08:39.080 --> 09:08:40.760
of it, it really was that narrative.

09:08:40.760 --> 09:08:42.160
it really was that story.

09:08:42.160 --> 09:08:44.400
And so just getting essentially this free,

09:08:44.400 --> 09:08:46.560
terrible late game and getting to have your tour

09:08:46.560 --> 09:08:48.880
on something so comfortable,

09:08:48.880 --> 09:08:51.320
blows my mind as to how he performs.

09:08:51.320 --> 09:08:52.880
I mean, I forgot the heroes in the pool,

09:08:52.880 --> 09:08:54.800
but I think even more importantly now,

09:08:54.800 --> 09:08:57.680
Spirit has a huge edge mentally over Team Vision.

09:08:57.680 --> 09:09:00.080
Because Team Vision, they even ran over in game one,

09:09:00.080 --> 09:09:01.920
they'd almost got ran over in game two,

09:09:01.920 --> 09:09:04.080
and now they got carry match up in the last pick.

09:09:04.080 --> 09:09:05.760
So when you go into that last pick,

09:09:05.760 --> 09:09:07.280
the amount of options that you have to consider,

09:09:07.280 --> 09:09:09.360
because I think up until the TV,

09:09:09.360 --> 09:09:12.360
Spirit were the ones that have to play tempo spirit were the ones that have to play fast

09:09:12.360 --> 09:09:16.160
But with the TV they completely fit the draft and they put themselves in a late game position

09:09:16.160 --> 09:09:18.860
And there's a lot of heroes they need to consider now for your bands

09:09:19.040 --> 09:09:20.800
Hey, it's always been exceptional

09:09:20.800 --> 09:09:23.840
But we can see not me be pulled up on the graphic right now

09:09:23.840 --> 09:09:29.200
And he played a really great game too that high ground defense that team spirit had versus team vision when they got that

09:09:29.200 --> 09:09:35.000
Ages and they were trying to pressure really early on there's a three-man curse crown that they lost to if they were

09:09:35.000 --> 09:09:40.000
to disengage with the Marcy

09:09:40.000 --> 09:09:41.000
rebound, but a lot of this game

09:09:41.000 --> 09:09:43.000
also just added up to the

09:09:43.000 --> 09:09:45.000
spirits on support. The

09:09:45.000 --> 09:09:46.000
supports on spirit being able

09:09:46.000 --> 09:09:48.000
to control team vision. Whereas

09:09:48.000 --> 09:09:49.000
if you look at team vision

09:09:49.000 --> 09:09:50.000
supports between an

09:09:50.000 --> 09:09:51.000
enchantress and Marcy, there

09:09:51.000 --> 09:09:52.000
really isn't that much

09:09:52.000 --> 09:09:53.000
controls. There was less

09:09:53.000 --> 09:09:55.000
maneuverability to work around

09:09:55.000 --> 09:09:56.000
in the team fights. There

09:09:56.000 --> 09:09:57.000
was less consistency in the

09:09:57.000 --> 09:09:59.000
high ground fishes. I fully

09:09:59.000 --> 09:10:00.000
agree with that. Her puppy

09:10:00.000 --> 09:10:01.000
mentioned in the coach

09:10:01.000 --> 09:10:02.000
interview after game two that

09:10:02.000 --> 09:10:03.000
he thinks they're out

09:10:03.000 --> 09:10:04.000
drafted in game one and two

09:10:04.000 --> 09:10:06.000
I think the Poshka is dancing

09:10:06.000 --> 09:10:08.000
circles around them and I think

09:10:08.000 --> 09:10:10.000
that is a big reason why the

09:10:10.000 --> 09:10:12.000
series has felt like spirit is

09:10:12.000 --> 09:10:14.000
dominating and vision did win the

09:10:14.000 --> 09:10:16.000
game too. But overall it felt

09:10:16.000 --> 09:10:18.000
spirit side and I think a lot of

09:10:18.000 --> 09:10:20.000
that is due to the prep is due to

09:10:20.000 --> 09:10:22.000
the situations they're setting

09:10:22.000 --> 09:10:24.000
themselves up in. They've got

09:10:24.000 --> 09:10:26.000
comfort. They've got late game

09:10:26.000 --> 09:10:28.000
and it just feels like it's

09:10:28.000 --> 09:10:30.000
games that spirit is very happy

09:10:30.000 --> 09:10:32.000
with. There were moments of

09:10:32.000 --> 09:10:35.680
to come out in the grand finals, see what you think is going to be on paper a fantastic

09:10:35.680 --> 09:10:39.760
matchup and pick an uncontested hero here. Almost works out for them. There are a lot

09:10:39.760 --> 09:10:43.440
of clutch plays from the Marci style. I mean, it is a line-class hero, but I think Puppy

09:10:43.440 --> 09:10:46.960
didn't want to say it, but almost all of his heroes are banned out. When I looked at the

09:10:46.960 --> 09:10:51.520
bands, there was a hoodwink, and hoodwink is not traditionally a hero that he plays.

09:10:51.520 --> 09:10:55.520
So I feel like he didn't want to go for that. He rather wanted the comfort. It's a TI

09:10:55.520 --> 09:10:59.200
final pressure. He felt like, I want to play something I know how to play. And it also,

09:10:59.200 --> 09:11:02.640
and added to their concept right of adding damage to the SF it gives him

09:11:03.440 --> 09:11:07.200
More tools we were seeing the the uncontested here is here

09:11:07.200 --> 09:11:10.000
And you know we had two more on it when we started the day

09:11:10.080 --> 09:11:16.800
But both the disruptor and the mazzi now being picked up it always feels like they're all free game right now when you could pick anything for yourself

09:11:17.200 --> 09:11:21.920
Yeah, when you get into that zone that ti zone of creativity, you're just you're looking for what makes sense right now

09:11:22.000 --> 09:11:25.920
You don't care about the meta ti grand finals is its own meta you throw everything else out the window

09:11:25.920 --> 09:11:28.720
It's trash we have what we have now and that's all that matters

09:11:29.200 --> 09:11:32.320
And on the topic of the Marcy, she was dodged.

09:11:32.320 --> 09:11:36.040
Like there was this idea that they wanted to Marcy Slardar and bully the enemy carry,

09:11:36.040 --> 09:11:39.960
but they ended up dodging that matchup because of the task protection.

09:11:39.960 --> 09:11:42.000
So they just read into it on Team Spirit.

09:11:42.000 --> 09:11:43.920
I love it. The reading is there.

09:11:43.920 --> 09:11:46.160
The balance is there and dropped as well.

09:11:46.160 --> 09:11:48.880
But TI just keeps giving whether it's new heroes

09:11:49.000 --> 09:11:53.400
or whether it's special content pieces coming out for a home crowd here in Shanghai.

09:11:59.200 --> 09:12:01.200
I'm here to help you!

09:12:01.200 --> 09:12:03.200
I'm here to help you!

09:12:03.200 --> 09:12:05.200
I'm here to help you!

09:12:05.200 --> 09:12:07.200
I'm here to help you!

09:12:07.200 --> 09:12:09.200
I'm here to help you!

09:12:09.200 --> 09:12:11.200
I'm here to help you!

09:12:11.200 --> 09:12:13.200
I've been suffering for so long.

09:12:13.200 --> 09:12:15.200
I've finally found you.

09:12:15.200 --> 09:12:17.200
You have the best talent and skill.

09:12:17.200 --> 09:12:19.200
The one who can make money in the world.

09:12:19.200 --> 09:12:21.200
I've finally found you.

09:12:21.200 --> 09:12:23.200
Enough! Stop talking!

09:12:23.200 --> 09:12:25.200
I'm here to help you!

09:12:25.200 --> 09:12:28.320
I'll give you a nice picture of my life.

09:12:29.320 --> 09:12:32.000
And I will show you the real life of that man.

09:12:32.000 --> 09:12:33.600
He is the most mature,

09:12:33.600 --> 09:12:34.760
the most passionate,

09:12:34.760 --> 09:12:35.600
the most brilliant,

09:12:35.600 --> 09:12:37.000
the one who always trains,

09:12:37.000 --> 09:12:38.040
the one who always stays in the same team,

09:12:38.040 --> 09:12:39.440
always communicates with you.

09:12:39.440 --> 09:12:40.720
So, you are my man.

09:12:40.720 --> 09:12:41.720
I'm your man.

09:12:41.720 --> 09:12:42.920
I will teach you a lesson today.

09:12:42.920 --> 09:12:43.960
I will be your leader.

09:12:43.960 --> 09:12:45.120
I will be your leader.

09:12:45.120 --> 09:12:46.800
I will be your leader.

09:12:50.560 --> 09:12:52.280
I will be your leader.

09:12:52.280 --> 09:12:53.720
I will be your leader.

09:12:53.720 --> 09:12:55.720
You think I'm a strict master?

09:12:55.720 --> 09:12:58.720
Then you don't know what you're going to face next.

09:12:58.720 --> 09:13:01.720
I've already finished cutting your pitiful frame.

09:13:01.720 --> 09:13:02.720
Give me another round of applause.

09:13:02.720 --> 09:13:06.720
I'm going to win with 30 points!

09:13:07.720 --> 09:13:10.720
I'm going to be a great swimmer,

09:13:10.720 --> 09:13:13.720
but I can only teach you how to make money.

09:13:13.720 --> 09:13:15.720
You have to be a great swimmer.

09:13:15.720 --> 09:13:17.720
You have to be a strong swimmer.

09:13:17.720 --> 09:13:19.720
You have to be a great swimmer.

09:13:19.720 --> 09:13:21.720
You have to be a great swimmer.

09:13:21.720 --> 09:13:24.720
You have to become a strong person to achieve everything.

09:13:24.720 --> 09:13:28.720
For this, you must enter the Taoist world.

09:13:28.720 --> 09:13:31.720
The way of the world is endless.

09:13:31.720 --> 09:13:35.720
You have to learn to fight for the pain.

09:13:35.720 --> 09:13:37.720
My first master is very strict.

09:13:37.720 --> 09:13:41.720
He taught me how to make a sword, how to make money.

09:13:41.720 --> 09:13:44.720
But this is just the beginning of my journey.

09:13:44.720 --> 09:13:48.720
I am now ready to meet my second master.

09:13:51.720 --> 09:13:56.520
Master Yi-Wai, thank you for teaching me so much.

09:13:57.520 --> 09:13:59.320
Of course, you're welcome.

09:13:59.920 --> 09:14:02.720
The enemy down there will not resist you.

09:14:03.720 --> 09:14:04.920
Black is alive.

09:14:09.920 --> 09:14:13.720
Master Yi-Wai, I've been training with you for a while.

09:14:13.720 --> 09:14:16.120
It's time to accept some tests.

09:14:18.120 --> 09:14:19.320
No, no, no.

09:14:19.320 --> 09:14:22.320
It's not the right time yet.

09:14:23.320 --> 09:14:24.320
The earthquake.

09:14:30.320 --> 09:14:34.320
Master Yi, I've been training with you for more than 20 days.

09:14:34.320 --> 09:14:37.320
When can we open the door of this misunderstanding?

09:14:41.320 --> 09:14:44.320
No, you still have a lot of things to choose from.

09:14:44.320 --> 09:14:49.320
You can go back to the snow, and then you can remove your armor and use wine.

09:14:49.320 --> 09:14:52.320
There are a lot of things to learn from these lines.

09:14:58.320 --> 09:14:59.320
Stop!

09:15:00.320 --> 09:15:04.320
The most horrible thing in the world after this door is that it is powerless.

09:15:04.320 --> 09:15:08.320
It is equal to knowing how to face it, and how to face the biggest pain in the world.

09:15:08.320 --> 09:15:10.320
The biggest pain in the world?

09:15:10.320 --> 09:15:13.320
Do you really think you are ready?

09:15:14.320 --> 09:15:16.320
I'm ready

09:15:16.320 --> 09:15:18.320
Let's face it

09:15:18.320 --> 09:15:20.320
It's a pain in the ass

09:15:25.320 --> 09:15:26.320
That's...

09:15:30.320 --> 09:15:32.320
His head...

09:15:32.320 --> 09:15:34.320
It's so crazy

09:15:34.320 --> 09:15:36.320
What do you mean?

09:15:38.320 --> 09:15:40.320
Be careful, my disciple

09:15:40.320 --> 09:15:43.320
Every time you attack, he will be stunned

09:15:43.320 --> 09:15:46.820
But if you can counterattack like this, your power will increase at any time.

09:15:48.320 --> 09:15:50.320
If you can stand it, he will keep sending you.

09:15:50.820 --> 09:15:52.820
Maybe you can still fight with him.

09:15:53.320 --> 09:15:55.320
I said I lost, how many times did he say I asked you?

09:16:07.820 --> 09:16:09.820
I will fight with him face to face, Tian Ge.

09:16:09.820 --> 09:16:12.820
But when he can't reach you anymore, you can take the next challenge.

09:16:13.320 --> 09:16:20.320
This is why Momomo and my brother always go to other teams.

09:16:20.320 --> 09:16:22.320
What do you mean?

09:16:24.320 --> 09:16:27.320
But he never told you.

09:16:30.320 --> 09:16:33.320
And he will never fight you.

09:16:43.320 --> 09:16:46.320
My second masters are a bit strange.

09:16:46.320 --> 09:16:49.320
But they taught me how to fight against enemies with spirit.

09:16:49.320 --> 09:16:52.320
Next, I will visit my third master

09:16:52.320 --> 09:16:55.320
and make my body stronger.

09:16:59.320 --> 09:17:01.320
Take this board as a unit.

09:17:01.320 --> 09:17:03.320
Hurry up and give it to me.

09:17:07.320 --> 09:17:09.320
Yes, master.

09:17:09.320 --> 09:17:11.320
Call me Brother Chao.

09:17:11.320 --> 09:17:13.320
再加一块呗!

09:17:17.320 --> 09:17:21.320
说实话,你硬腿这个一塔没什么用!

09:17:24.320 --> 09:17:27.320
她说的是真的吗?超哥大师!

09:17:27.320 --> 09:17:31.320
再说一次,我的名字叫陆瑶!

09:17:31.320 --> 09:17:33.320
再加一块!

09:17:35.320 --> 09:17:39.320
你这个臭玩意的一塔你把我打钱有病了吗?

09:17:39.320 --> 09:17:41.320
Don't bother him. He has a problem.

09:17:41.320 --> 09:17:43.320
And you are too weak.

09:17:43.320 --> 09:17:45.320
If you want to become stronger,

09:17:45.320 --> 09:17:47.320
you should wake up early every day.

09:17:47.320 --> 09:17:49.320
You need to be more handsome.

09:17:49.320 --> 09:17:51.320
Handsome?

09:17:51.320 --> 09:17:55.320
What is the use of the sun?

09:17:55.320 --> 09:17:57.320
When the sun is out, the sun can be charged.

09:17:57.320 --> 09:17:59.320
Or you are a plant person

09:17:59.320 --> 09:18:01.320
or some grasshopper.

09:18:01.320 --> 09:18:03.320
You can use it together.

09:18:03.320 --> 09:18:05.320
You are practicing and practicing.

09:18:05.320 --> 09:18:07.320
You are working hard.

09:18:07.320 --> 09:18:10.320
You can wait for me to say what the sun means, can't you?

09:18:12.320 --> 09:18:14.320
Are you and the sun very familiar?

09:18:15.320 --> 09:18:18.320
Have you ever been to the sun? Or have you friends there?

09:18:19.320 --> 09:18:21.320
What the hell are you talking about?

09:18:24.320 --> 09:18:26.320
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but...

09:18:26.320 --> 09:18:28.320
It's true, I'm not sick.

09:18:29.320 --> 09:18:31.320
But I'm really proud of you.

09:18:32.320 --> 09:18:34.320
You really learned something.

09:18:34.320 --> 09:18:35.320
What is this?

09:18:35.320 --> 09:18:36.320
What is this?

09:18:36.320 --> 09:18:37.320
What is this?

09:18:37.320 --> 09:18:38.320
What is this?

09:18:38.320 --> 09:18:39.320
What is this?

09:18:39.320 --> 09:18:40.320
What is this?

09:18:40.320 --> 09:18:41.320
I think it's better...

09:18:50.320 --> 09:18:53.320
Now, I think I'm finally ready

09:18:53.320 --> 09:18:56.320
to defeat that scum

09:18:56.320 --> 09:18:57.320
Stop!

09:18:59.320 --> 09:19:01.320
If you want to enter the secret room of the world

09:19:01.320 --> 09:19:03.320
you must choose the right key

09:19:04.320 --> 09:19:06.320
We don't need to talk about this now, okay?

09:19:06.320 --> 09:19:08.320
I'm just...

09:19:13.320 --> 09:19:16.320
I'm Tiange, and I'm here to hold the ceremony.

09:19:16.320 --> 09:19:18.320
I'm a master of the art.

09:19:18.320 --> 09:19:20.320
I'm here to see the ceremony.

09:19:34.320 --> 09:19:37.320
To me? No, no, that's...

09:19:41.320 --> 09:19:43.320
Hey, Amidus!

09:19:53.320 --> 09:19:55.320
Hey, Amidus!

09:19:55.320 --> 09:19:58.320
I've seen your face!

09:19:58.320 --> 09:20:01.680
Ha ha ha ha ha ha

09:20:03.360 --> 09:20:05.840
You are so good

09:20:06.560 --> 09:20:10.960
Um would you rather do this in english?

09:20:12.240 --> 09:20:13.920
I can't hear your English

09:20:16.960 --> 09:20:18.160
Ha ha ha ha ha

09:20:19.440 --> 09:20:20.800
Why are you here?

09:20:22.000 --> 09:20:26.480
Oh this is a long and sad story

09:20:28.320 --> 09:20:33.320
Why no one brought me to the top of the world?

09:20:39.320 --> 09:20:41.320
What is this?

09:20:45.320 --> 09:20:46.320
No!

09:20:46.320 --> 09:20:54.320
This...this...this...this...this...this...this...this is my story.

09:20:54.320 --> 09:20:59.320
You're not stupid, are you?

09:21:03.320 --> 09:21:05.320
Burnin's sword, Aury's magic chain,

09:21:05.320 --> 09:21:07.320
and the determination of the two brothers,

09:21:07.320 --> 09:21:10.320
all of these are all for this moment,

09:21:10.320 --> 09:21:12.320
Master AMI.

09:21:12.320 --> 09:21:14.320
It's time.

09:21:19.320 --> 09:21:21.320
Brother Tian, you're ready.

09:21:51.320 --> 09:21:55.640
enjoyable moment every year, where we get to see the creative boost that comes out in

09:21:55.640 --> 09:22:01.240
skydive, getting the absolute list, long list of legends, and multiple training there just for

09:22:01.240 --> 09:22:05.800
herald four like the rest of us. Yeah, I'm not sure I understood all the references, but I still

09:22:05.800 --> 09:22:10.760
enjoyed it mightily. My goodness. It's also cool to get to see all the Chinese pros and

09:22:10.760 --> 09:22:14.120
people in the scene from like, I don't know, it's been such a long time we've been in Dota,

09:22:14.120 --> 09:22:18.120
so to get to see burning and all these legends is very, very cool.

09:22:18.120 --> 09:22:24.760
And hearing the crowd respond to all the cameos was incredible. They were so loud, especially for slacks.

09:22:24.760 --> 09:22:27.080
You know, I mean, the master of all masters.

09:22:27.080 --> 09:22:31.400
No, that was a great content piece. I had a blast watching it. It was really, really nice.

09:22:31.400 --> 09:22:37.080
It's always really fun. It feels like it really does do a service to everyone that's given so much of their lives,

09:22:37.080 --> 09:22:42.840
so much of their times, giving us like such notable plays as well, specifically from our Chinese noticing.

09:22:42.840 --> 09:22:47.880
So I love it. Thank you guys so much again for putting in all of that effort for making what it was,

09:22:47.880 --> 09:22:49.680
is such a fun content PC.

09:22:49.680 --> 09:22:52.280
But at the end of the day, the one reason a lot of us

09:22:52.280 --> 09:22:54.520
are still tuning in is the grand finals.

09:22:54.520 --> 09:22:56.720
We still have not decided who is going

09:22:56.720 --> 09:22:59.000
to be lifting that Aegis right now.

09:22:59.000 --> 09:23:01.280
Spirit of two games in this one,

09:23:01.280 --> 09:23:03.840
it is vision with one game for themselves.

09:23:03.840 --> 09:23:05.640
And when you look towards it, it

09:23:05.640 --> 09:23:07.280
is only one more game spirit need

09:23:07.280 --> 09:23:11.040
until we have two, three times TI champions, a two-time TI

09:23:11.040 --> 09:23:12.880
champion in LAL as well.

09:23:12.880 --> 09:23:15.600
And a first time TI attendee lifting the Aegis and not me.

09:23:15.600 --> 09:23:20.120
like it's crazy to think you will one game away from getting to achieve all of that together in the five minute

09:23:20.760 --> 09:23:23.800
Yeah, I think you need to be careful that that pressure doesn't affect you

09:23:23.800 --> 09:23:29.400
I think this team is as good at not doing that as anyone is staying strong and focusing on the gameplay at hand

09:23:29.400 --> 09:23:33.200
But the closer you get I think the more of a temptation it becomes as a classic

09:23:33.360 --> 09:23:37.960
Coral line of don't think about winning and I think there is truth in that that you want to stay focused on

09:23:37.960 --> 09:23:43.880
Actually playing the game not on the result that happens if you do because while that's cool and all that is not relevant right now

09:23:43.880 --> 09:23:49.720
Because it's not a reality. Yeah, it's zero zero, right? You start over the game just fresh nothing

09:23:49.720 --> 09:23:53.240
The water doesn't care there to the end stop, right? It's not gonna be more forgiving to you

09:23:53.240 --> 09:23:56.520
Or it's not gonna make you deal more damage. None of your heroes change

09:23:56.520 --> 09:24:01.280
It's all starting over from scratch and an equal opportunity for both teams here really

09:24:01.600 --> 09:24:03.640
We're looking at the number of TI appearances

09:24:03.640 --> 09:24:09.000
And it's so fun to get to look at the numbers and then kind of put it into a percentage into a different sort of

09:24:09.000 --> 09:24:15.800
perspective. If spirit were to win on here, it would be a 50% win rate at TI for Yatoro,

09:24:15.800 --> 09:24:20.320
Maposhka, and collapse. That's crazy. They've attended six. This one being their six, and

09:24:20.320 --> 09:24:23.880
to win three of them would be wild.

09:24:23.880 --> 09:24:27.800
That's insane. That's like, because the TI is a team spirit, didn't win. They got knocked

09:24:27.800 --> 09:24:31.800
out early. It really feels like the story with this team has been, if you don't knock

09:24:31.800 --> 09:24:35.920
them out early, they're going to evolve and develop into this Pokemon that no

09:24:35.920 --> 09:24:39.760
No one can defeat, you know, just like Dove went on her journey and not talk to me.

09:24:39.760 --> 09:24:42.880
To become the master of all masters is what's happening here.

09:24:42.880 --> 09:24:46.140
But it's not like Vision are going to go down without a fight though in CD.

09:24:46.140 --> 09:24:48.640
We saw them really bounce back in game number two.

09:24:48.640 --> 09:24:49.640
That's the hope.

09:24:49.640 --> 09:24:53.640
I'm hoping they're holding on to that, knowing that they can stick it to spirit if it

09:24:53.640 --> 09:24:54.640
gets that late game.

09:24:54.640 --> 09:24:55.640
Absolutely.

09:24:55.640 --> 09:24:57.720
And I think they've proved it time and time again throughout the event.

09:24:57.720 --> 09:24:59.360
All their matches have been two-once.

09:24:59.360 --> 09:25:01.920
That means you've been put in these positions before where you're only one game away

09:25:01.920 --> 09:25:04.360
from losing the series and you have to clutch it out.

09:25:04.360 --> 09:25:07.940
So they know that it's not a position they're not familiar with, they're very familiar with

09:25:07.940 --> 09:25:08.940
it.

09:25:08.940 --> 09:25:09.940
And I think they are just like Spirit.

09:25:09.940 --> 09:25:12.820
They're a team that learns a lot from the draft, they can improve with every game that

09:25:12.820 --> 09:25:13.940
they play.

09:25:13.940 --> 09:25:17.700
And to be honest, the story of this series so far seems to be like you want to make

09:25:17.700 --> 09:25:19.220
sure you have the end game win condition.

09:25:19.220 --> 09:25:20.220
Yeah.

09:25:20.220 --> 09:25:21.940
And they also haven't had that for those three games.

09:25:21.940 --> 09:25:25.340
And so while they may be down and they seem like Spirit has been doing better throughout

09:25:25.340 --> 09:25:27.820
the series, it's not that distant.

09:25:27.820 --> 09:25:30.660
Like that's the thing about these games is you can be losing and can't even feel

09:25:30.660 --> 09:25:34.560
it's a little thominant. When

09:25:34.560 --> 09:25:35.160
you go back and you watch the

09:25:35.160 --> 09:25:36.560
replay you look at the draft.

09:25:36.560 --> 09:25:38.160
It's such small things change

09:25:38.160 --> 09:25:39.560
that give you such a big

09:25:39.560 --> 09:25:41.160
advantage and you've had a bigger

09:25:41.160 --> 09:25:42.560
gap now right between games

09:25:42.560 --> 09:25:43.960
three or between games to three

09:25:43.960 --> 09:25:45.360
and four three and four. Sorry

09:25:45.360 --> 09:25:46.560
there is a longer break. And so

09:25:46.560 --> 09:25:47.760
that means you have more time

09:25:47.760 --> 09:25:48.960
to think about things more time

09:25:48.960 --> 09:25:50.560
to reset a little bit to process

09:25:50.560 --> 09:25:51.760
how you want to change your

09:25:51.760 --> 09:25:52.960
draft and come in stronger. And

09:25:52.960 --> 09:25:54.560
so I think that break helps the

09:25:54.560 --> 09:25:55.560
team that's down a little

09:25:55.560 --> 09:25:56.560
bit because you get to process

09:25:56.560 --> 09:25:57.560
things and figure a little bit

09:25:57.560 --> 09:25:58.560
more out. I know this is

09:25:58.560 --> 09:26:00.560
such a weird question to ask,

09:26:00.560 --> 09:26:02.000
you get that elongated break.

09:26:02.000 --> 09:26:03.400
What is the process of it?

09:26:03.400 --> 09:26:05.600
Because I'm also aware that these guys have been going at it

09:26:05.600 --> 09:26:08.920
for hours, and I know that recovering is one aspect of it.

09:26:08.920 --> 09:26:11.120
But are you out there caffeinating more?

09:26:11.120 --> 09:26:12.080
Are you eating?

09:26:12.080 --> 09:26:13.720
Like, what are the other ways in which you're

09:26:13.720 --> 09:26:16.000
trying to utilize the fact that you have a longer break

09:26:16.000 --> 09:26:18.600
instead of just talking about the dodo?

09:26:18.600 --> 09:26:20.960
I think a lot of it depends on person to person, I think.

09:26:20.960 --> 09:26:22.400
Because some people would need to work on the draft.

09:26:22.400 --> 09:26:23.440
But that's not everyone.

09:26:23.440 --> 09:26:25.040
It's not something you want too many cooks in the kitchen.

09:26:25.040 --> 09:26:25.960
You want just enough.

09:26:25.960 --> 09:26:27.960
And so I think some people are leaning back in their chair.

09:26:27.960 --> 09:26:28.960
You have a little bit of food.

09:26:28.960 --> 09:26:32.080
just chilling and sort of, and you eat a little bit and you wait for the next game.

09:26:32.080 --> 09:26:35.360
And I think some people are going the other route, they're drinking coffee,

09:26:35.360 --> 09:26:37.880
they're drinking whatever caffeine they need, and they're focusing on the draft

09:26:37.880 --> 09:26:38.680
and doing the hard work.

09:26:38.680 --> 09:26:41.560
And so I think the leadership roles, maybe the no one and the puppy,

09:26:41.560 --> 09:26:42.600
they're taking the hard road.

09:26:42.600 --> 09:26:46.360
If we need to fix problems and work on things and you should tanics

09:26:46.360 --> 09:26:49.400
and you notice your newer players there, I'm going to steal myself.

09:26:49.400 --> 09:26:51.640
I'm going to play as well as I can for the upcoming game.

09:26:52.480 --> 09:26:57.080
I do think that a pep talk needs to happen though for vision,

09:26:57.080 --> 09:27:00.400
especially for their supports, because something that I wanted to talk about was,

09:27:00.400 --> 09:27:04.760
I do think the supports, the duos are getting dipped this game, even in that game too.

09:27:04.760 --> 09:27:11.240
I feel like in all three games, Team Spirit supports have been moving to the mid lane and outpacing vision supports.

09:27:11.240 --> 09:27:15.080
They've been clutching the late game, they've been able to do more with what they have than team vision.

09:27:15.080 --> 09:27:19.600
And when I look at this, I don't really see the issues with the cores and how they've been playing.

09:27:19.600 --> 09:27:26.000
It's more so how the supports are enabling them and team vision are a little bit lackluster today compared to Rulin not me.

09:27:26.000 --> 09:27:29.280
I mean, it applies to the hero pools and the drafts, right?

09:27:29.280 --> 09:27:33.200
We saw in this game three, Spirit, Spans are all over 9 class.

09:27:33.200 --> 09:27:37.040
None of the heroes that he really, like, wants to play are given to him.

09:27:37.040 --> 09:27:38.720
He's forced to play the smart C.

09:27:38.720 --> 09:27:40.160
I know Poppy said they wanted to do it.

09:27:40.160 --> 09:27:42.320
It's a cool idea. I could definitely see it work.

09:27:42.320 --> 09:27:43.600
There's potential for it.

09:27:43.600 --> 09:27:45.840
And I think, honestly, any other hero than the TB,

09:27:45.840 --> 09:27:48.160
they probably put it with the Star-Ardard, like you said, Mira.

09:27:48.160 --> 09:27:49.600
And then they try to run over that lane,

09:27:49.600 --> 09:27:53.120
but once TB comes out, it's just, this isn't possible anymore.

09:27:53.120 --> 09:27:58.720
And that's just I think draft-wise fear has been solving that they've making it hard for the sports to have that info

09:27:59.720 --> 09:28:03.680
I think another big like factor that comes into it is these games for us

09:28:03.680 --> 09:28:09.460
You just have to stay mentally strong that to me was the biggest thing out playing at I final is it's such a mental test

09:28:10.200 --> 09:28:13.940
It's just different than every other series and all your hopes and dreams are so close

09:28:13.940 --> 09:28:17.740
Especially now that you've gotten deeper into the series being able to just focus on the dough

09:28:17.740 --> 09:28:21.580
it and push all those things aside is one of the hardest things I've ever had to do and so I feel for

09:28:21.580 --> 09:28:25.740
these players and I look and see how they come into the booths and how the game starts and trying to

09:28:25.740 --> 09:28:31.020
feel how they feel because it is I think honestly it's harder than the Dota itself is the mentality

09:28:31.020 --> 09:28:35.020
that goes into it and being strong and fortifying yourself to actually be able to play the game to

09:28:35.020 --> 09:28:39.020
the fullest of your ability. Yeah I do think that's where team spirit shines with that mental

09:28:39.020 --> 09:28:43.340
fortification but just to address the graphic that came on the screen they had the same kill

09:28:43.340 --> 09:28:48.700
participation in nine class of not me. And what Ada mentioned about the draft is very true because

09:28:48.700 --> 09:28:52.940
if your willow has like three man curse crowns and one terrorize in a team fight in your Marcy,

09:28:52.940 --> 09:28:57.580
all she can do is rebound. There's not that much you can do. The support duos and their heroes

09:28:57.580 --> 09:29:00.460
have looked like they don't have enough. I mean, at some point you can break

09:29:00.460 --> 09:29:04.460
the order down simply to the more control we have, the easier the late game will be.

09:29:05.180 --> 09:29:09.180
You could just look towards fixing the angles of control. Maybe enchantress should be benched

09:29:09.180 --> 09:29:13.020
for the next game. Perhaps. I mean, I think the idea with the Marcy here was just like,

09:29:13.020 --> 09:29:19.940
like we're gonna bail out our carry right but bailing someone out when he's in a losing matchup and he doesn't win by surviving is the issue

09:29:19.940 --> 09:29:26.020
That really is like where it's just like you know spirit are their geniuses and there's a reason they're here

09:29:26.020 --> 09:29:28.760
And it's also impressive that they can do that with this phone thing

09:29:29.060 --> 09:29:33.580
Yeah, I feel like when you're doing the Marcy and you that is the pivotal part for her

09:29:33.580 --> 09:29:38.100
That's the world that she wants to play you're almost saying we don't actually really want to team fight

09:29:38.100 --> 09:29:41.000
We might poke and we might try and all in but at the end of the day

09:29:41.000 --> 09:29:46.740
That isn't really out and mo with what we're going for you. Yeah, it's it's tough and you just have to

09:29:47.400 --> 09:29:52.700
You kind of you either have to pick a path and do your own thing and just pick your own heroes and say spirits gonna counter us

09:29:52.700 --> 09:29:54.560
And that's okay. We believe in our heroes a whole lot

09:29:54.560 --> 09:29:57.100
That's one path and the other route if you try to play spirits game

09:29:57.100 --> 09:30:00.180
You see you're gonna counter our strategy on a you know higher level

09:30:00.180 --> 09:30:01.320
We're gonna try to do the same thing

09:30:01.320 --> 09:30:05.580
And I think you have to kind of pick a path because in some ways I think they're dilly-dallying between the two

09:30:05.580 --> 09:30:08.700
Sometimes they're picking their own stuff and sometimes they're trying to overwatch encounter

09:30:08.700 --> 09:30:12.560
And if you're getting a bit outplayed at spirits game, and they're not quite fully committing to the other way

09:30:13.080 --> 09:30:13.580
Yeah

09:30:13.580 --> 09:30:18.420
I mean what you mentioned there in regards to the previous game like they opened up with a shadow fiend

09:30:18.420 --> 09:30:21.940
They wanted to build up the shadow fiend to be this critical point in the game where

09:30:22.500 --> 09:30:27.360
Satanic just stands there and chunks that everybody so they enable him with an app damage and a mercy sidekick

09:30:27.380 --> 09:30:32.940
But at some point it really wasn't working out to actually get him to play the game ended with the tourist

09:30:32.940 --> 09:30:38.240
terrible at having 55,000 hero damage and Satanic's Asaf having 20,000 hero damage. He just was

09:30:38.240 --> 09:30:42.680
not able to stand there and hit. So maybe it's because they didn't fully commit to the

09:30:42.680 --> 09:30:47.060
idea of building up a turret and Asaf, maybe the Pango plus Sardar together made it redundant

09:30:47.060 --> 09:30:48.560
and we needed one more enabler.

09:30:48.560 --> 09:30:52.180
I do think there's even more credit that goes the way of Spirit and Maposhka is because

09:30:52.180 --> 09:30:56.760
they first picked the Nature's Prophet and they go in thinking that this is going

09:30:56.760 --> 09:31:02.060
to be a Yatora, Nature's Prophet, right? They're not really calling this a lull is

09:31:02.060 --> 09:31:07.740
go to be comfortable playing and even if they do then they're willing to call that bluff and it is almost an exact replica of

09:31:07.740 --> 09:31:11.420
What happened in game one where they're trying to call the bluff again on loss here a pool

09:31:11.420 --> 09:31:14.860
He doesn't play that slot and even if we do we'll try and dodge the matchup

09:31:14.860 --> 09:31:20.220
He doesn't play nature's profit. Well, he does there are seven competitive games for him

09:31:20.220 --> 09:31:23.420
And whilst the win rate before this game wasn't necessarily positive

09:31:23.500 --> 09:31:28.340
He's still comfortable enough to do it and I feel like you can't keep resting on the laurels that you're going to call

09:31:28.340 --> 09:31:33.380
the blot of Law's hero pool anymore. I think if you go back to the draft even like they end up last

09:31:33.380 --> 09:31:37.300
banning Monkey King. Like Monkey King isn't really a hero that we've seen much and I feel like when

09:31:37.300 --> 09:31:41.540
I was looking at the draft I feel like they felt so good about the first four heroes, matchups,

09:31:41.540 --> 09:31:45.620
into the other four that they didn't really think about is there anything that could in

09:31:45.620 --> 09:31:50.340
any possible way stomp our draft in the end because if you remove Terribley from Spirit there

09:31:50.340 --> 09:31:54.420
I don't know what they pick. I feel like no matter what they pick they're going to be

09:31:54.420 --> 09:31:58.420
playing like a temple style, they're going to have to try to like ramp up this game.

09:31:58.420 --> 09:32:02.100
And I think Satanic is a person that is much more comfortable when he's the person being

09:32:02.100 --> 09:32:06.020
templeed on rather than when they have to be the ones setting the temple.

09:32:06.020 --> 09:32:09.300
Yeah. I mean, they're built in pubs. These players are playing so many of these games where

09:32:09.300 --> 09:32:12.340
everyone's running at them. They see Satanic or your tours and lobbying and they charge at them.

09:32:12.340 --> 09:32:16.580
You built this incredible skill set of dodging ganks of surviving, of getting farmed anyway.

09:32:16.580 --> 09:32:19.700
And the flip side is just not something that really gets built to the same degree,

09:32:19.700 --> 09:32:22.340
especially when you're a young player who's only been playing competitively

09:32:22.340 --> 09:32:27.500
for two to three years you want to put him in the strong suit where he's been molded and formed and let him do the things that he's so

09:32:27.780 --> 09:32:30.460
Ridiculously insanely good at that's gotten him all the way to this finals

09:32:31.940 --> 09:32:34.980
I'm just looking at the fact that spirit once again

09:32:34.980 --> 09:32:41.340
They sacrifice some part of the hair to the Dota gods and it feels like right now the tides aren't turning against them when it comes to

09:32:41.340 --> 09:32:44.500
Favorability because they have had that advantage now

09:32:44.500 --> 09:32:51.200
You guys have coined it in all three drops vision off looking necessarily like the team that they have in the upper bracket

09:32:51.200 --> 09:32:53.280
where they haven't dropped a single series,

09:32:53.280 --> 09:32:56.240
where they took that part into the grand finals here

09:32:56.240 --> 09:32:57.440
because they're one team down,

09:32:57.440 --> 09:32:59.320
and whilst they take to the stage again,

09:32:59.320 --> 09:33:00.640
there is that seat of doubt.

09:33:00.640 --> 09:33:03.280
This could be your final game of TI 15.

09:33:03.280 --> 09:33:05.480
This could be it that makes or breaks you.

09:33:06.440 --> 09:33:08.320
Yeah, there's a feeling as you walk onto the stage,

09:33:08.320 --> 09:33:11.000
if you're looking at the crowd and trying to savor it,

09:33:11.000 --> 09:33:14.600
but also focusing that mix of relishing the moment,

09:33:14.600 --> 09:33:16.160
but also you need to win.

09:33:16.160 --> 09:33:17.880
Your life is on the line here.

09:33:17.880 --> 09:33:19.560
Provision and spirit is one giveaway

09:33:19.560 --> 09:33:21.840
from being the undisputed goats.

09:33:21.840 --> 09:33:24.680
Yeah, it's so close, you know?

09:33:24.680 --> 09:33:26.880
I think for them, they've been compared to OG

09:33:26.880 --> 09:33:29.400
for all these years, you know, two TI ones each.

09:33:29.400 --> 09:33:30.760
It was truly better.

09:33:30.760 --> 09:33:33.000
And today, they have the chance to finally end

09:33:33.000 --> 09:33:34.400
all discussion.

09:33:34.400 --> 09:33:36.040
There's no discussion after this.

09:33:36.040 --> 09:33:38.560
If they get the three-peat, it's over.

09:33:38.560 --> 09:33:40.520
And Quinn, you've been in a position

09:33:40.520 --> 09:33:42.800
where you're like one game from elimination

09:33:42.800 --> 09:33:44.840
out of TI Grand Finals against Team Spirit.

09:33:44.840 --> 09:33:47.040
Like, how do you steal yourselves

09:33:47.040 --> 09:33:49.560
against the force that they are.

09:33:49.560 --> 09:33:53.400
I think so much has to do with, like, honesty with each other.

09:33:53.400 --> 09:33:55.760
I think a lot of times, at least for us, pressure can get to you

09:33:55.760 --> 09:33:58.360
and people can start to feel bad, and you can feel that

09:33:58.360 --> 09:34:01.240
in their communication, their atmosphere, and it bleeds into everyone else.

09:34:01.240 --> 09:34:04.600
It becomes sort of this fog in the air that you can't quite see through.

09:34:04.600 --> 09:34:07.720
And so I think, having an honest conversation,

09:34:07.720 --> 09:34:09.560
people who are anxious talking about that,

09:34:09.560 --> 09:34:11.480
and you get to the human side of it and you realize that,

09:34:11.480 --> 09:34:14.680
hey, this is a privilege, it's a very hard thing, we're all together,

09:34:14.680 --> 09:34:19.680
And we're just going to be pushed through it and do the best that we can.

09:34:19.680 --> 09:34:25.240
We're seeing here both collapse and you tore the potential three time is the fact that

09:34:25.240 --> 09:34:26.680
they're one game away.

09:34:26.680 --> 09:34:30.720
And when you look at them, I mean more now than ever before, but I feel like I can't

09:34:30.720 --> 09:34:31.720
read them.

09:34:31.720 --> 09:34:32.920
I cannot read them at all.

09:34:32.920 --> 09:34:37.760
They already have two of these TI rings to themselves to add a third would be insane

09:34:37.760 --> 09:34:39.720
and all three as a player.

09:34:39.720 --> 09:34:40.720
No one's done that.

09:34:40.720 --> 09:34:42.720
Three rings as a player.

09:34:42.720 --> 09:34:43.960
I mean, it's a crazy achievement.

09:34:43.960 --> 09:34:46.120
I'm sad to see that they both have a full head of hair

09:34:46.120 --> 09:34:47.720
walking around and I was hoping

09:34:47.720 --> 09:34:50.080
somebody would have shaved their head before coming out.

09:34:50.080 --> 09:34:51.360
But they're locked in.

09:34:51.360 --> 09:34:52.320
Yeah, they're locked in.

09:34:52.320 --> 09:34:54.560
They're locked into the point where they don't need to sacrifice

09:34:54.560 --> 09:34:55.640
their own hair.

09:34:55.640 --> 09:34:57.640
It's just time to get rid of Nomi's beard, you know?

09:34:57.640 --> 09:34:58.600
He's the newbie.

09:34:58.600 --> 09:35:00.080
They're gonna get him the TI wins

09:35:00.080 --> 09:35:02.280
so long as he's able to give up.

09:35:02.280 --> 09:35:04.120
It's crazy to think we have 14

09:35:04.120 --> 09:35:05.800
of those beautiful pieces of jewelry

09:35:05.800 --> 09:35:08.240
that commemorate every year

09:35:08.240 --> 09:35:10.680
that we've gotten to see a team take to that stage

09:35:10.680 --> 09:35:12.160
to win a grand finals

09:35:12.160 --> 09:35:16.160
to eventually the dreams of

09:35:16.160 --> 09:35:18.160
lifting an ages. That spot is

09:35:18.160 --> 09:35:20.160
just waiting for them ready to

09:35:20.160 --> 09:35:22.160
be ready to be etched in. Their

09:35:22.160 --> 09:35:23.160
name is already in game twice

09:35:23.160 --> 09:35:24.160
when you hover over the Vegas

09:35:24.160 --> 09:35:25.160
they're close to having their

09:35:25.160 --> 09:35:26.160
name a third time. You're

09:35:26.160 --> 09:35:27.160
barely going to be able to play

09:35:27.160 --> 09:35:28.160
the game without seeing their

09:35:28.160 --> 09:35:30.160
names everywhere at this point.

09:35:30.160 --> 09:35:32.160
So synonymous with Dota in the

09:35:32.160 --> 09:35:34.160
past six years, and I think.

09:35:34.160 --> 09:35:36.160
It's it is just such an iconic

09:35:36.160 --> 09:35:38.160
series and the history of those

09:35:38.160 --> 09:35:39.160
players. The fact that puppy

09:35:39.160 --> 09:35:41.160
one is first and now at the

09:35:41.160 --> 09:35:44.680
the potential to win it again. Part of why Dota is so great is such a rich history and

09:35:44.680 --> 09:35:47.900
so many players that have been around for so long and makes all these series mean just

09:35:47.900 --> 09:35:48.900
that much more.

09:35:48.900 --> 09:35:54.500
Yeah, I just find it so poetic if Team Spirit are able to do this. It's because Mapushka

09:35:54.500 --> 09:35:58.740
came back to the team as a coach. It really did feel like when they didn't have him

09:35:58.740 --> 09:36:03.380
earlier in this year, they were lacking something very deep. His ideas in Dota really

09:36:03.380 --> 09:36:07.440
are why Team Spirit became what they are. He's the one who influenced Claps and

09:36:07.440 --> 09:36:13.000
Toro and turn them into the players that they are he's the one who influenced satanic satanic when he played on the

09:36:13.000 --> 09:36:14.240
Stint stint on Tuesday

09:36:14.240 --> 09:36:19.520
It was the poshka who took the guiding role and talked him about their ideas and now he's come as a coach

09:36:19.600 --> 09:36:24.520
He lost the best of three or two days ago to puppy a lot of it was due to getting out drafted by puppy

09:36:24.520 --> 09:36:29.920
But he prepared really hard. He's been showing up today, and he's been absolutely frying him to be honest

09:36:30.160 --> 09:36:33.080
Yeah, I mean there this is all about the strategies

09:36:33.080 --> 09:36:35.560
I think both teams honestly when you look at the gameplay

09:36:35.560 --> 09:36:40.720
They are playing well. All the players deserve to be here. They're playing at a level that, you know, it is

09:36:41.200 --> 09:36:44.320
Well, you have to be able to play out in order to be in a TI Grand Finals

09:36:44.320 --> 09:36:46.720
But ultimately when the teams are so closely matched

09:36:46.720 --> 09:36:51.280
It's going to come down to who has those slight advantages through the graph who has the slightly easier

09:36:51.280 --> 09:36:56.840
Graph to execute and who has more opportunities to do things in the games and who have more opportunities to win the games

09:36:56.840 --> 09:36:59.560
And I think right now Impostor is giving that to his team

09:36:59.760 --> 09:37:05.360
There's still full belief though that puppy is able to take this extended break between a game three

09:37:05.560 --> 09:37:11.320
of four work out that maybe they're playing too much into what spirit wants for themselves playing

09:37:11.320 --> 09:37:16.760
their game lost themselves a little bit because it's not over. You have this game and you still

09:37:16.760 --> 09:37:23.240
have satanic on your team satanic stood in for team spirit when yotara wanted to take a break. He

09:37:23.240 --> 09:37:27.720
ends up joining vision. They hit top three last year. They at least bested this year with a

09:37:27.720 --> 09:37:32.200
guaranteed top two, but they want to take it that one step further and you want to be able

09:37:32.200 --> 09:37:36.200
to push into a game number five to show that this Prince and King battle isn't as

09:37:36.200 --> 09:37:38.840
straightforward as everyone wants to chalk it up today.

09:37:38.840 --> 09:37:41.880
Yeah this is not over yet. Vision have something to say

09:37:41.880 --> 09:37:45.320
and they get a chance to prove it here. They bounce back once before, they bounce

09:37:45.320 --> 09:37:47.880
back in every series they've played to get here.

09:37:47.880 --> 09:37:51.640
If anyone can do it, it's them. Their players are incredible and they have

09:37:51.640 --> 09:37:54.520
all the tools. Man I wish we would just stop talking.

09:37:54.520 --> 09:37:57.800
So casters, please give us game and we can just

09:37:57.800 --> 09:38:01.960
go watch some good Dota. Please not. I promise you the grand finals

09:38:01.960 --> 09:38:05.500
is continuing as a lot rides on game number four.

09:38:07.500 --> 09:38:17.500
Team Vision versus Team Spirit Grand Finals, game four.

09:38:19.500 --> 09:38:22.500
The lobby start button at least has been pressed.

09:38:22.500 --> 09:38:27.460
The game start is still to be decided as we want to see what five heroes these guys

09:38:27.460 --> 09:38:28.960
are going to pick for themselves.

09:38:28.960 --> 09:38:35.280
10. We will have an out matchup because game for we said it before and we'll say it again. It is a make or break

09:38:35.280 --> 09:38:41.400
If you call us asked for the rematch of the prince and the king and you've got to wonder what exactly are they gonna plan for themselves here?

09:38:41.400 --> 09:38:47.600
Is it going to be another carry to carry matchup where you want to be able to put all of your eggs into the satanic basket?

09:38:47.600 --> 09:38:53.440
We'll be seeing more emphasis placed on the support right now a tree and protect that doc will have found you on a nature's

09:38:53.440 --> 09:38:55.440
profit and shadow 3 taken out

09:38:55.920 --> 09:39:00.480
That's interesting the shadow team was super heavily prioritized at both teams getting first pick the last two games

09:39:00.480 --> 09:39:04.040
And now spirit is first pick and they ban it out. So clearly they have another path

09:39:04.040 --> 09:39:06.560
They don't want to mess around with these SF lines anymore

09:39:06.560 --> 09:39:11.160
They want to find something new a new avenue to go down. Yeah, I mean, it's gonna be a different game, right?

09:39:11.160 --> 09:39:16.480
They've changed basically the hero that's been so defining for this entire series in the SF

09:39:16.560 --> 09:39:18.840
It was what made the game one happen

09:39:18.840 --> 09:39:21.200
It's what made game two happen and it's also a big game three happen

09:39:21.200 --> 09:39:23.200
So we have a completely new draft in front of us.

09:39:23.200 --> 09:39:26.200
We see Lone Druid is finally banned out by Vision this time around.

09:39:26.200 --> 09:39:30.200
It's been a hero that I feel like both teams have kind of drafted around this entire time.

09:39:30.200 --> 09:39:36.200
We haven't seen him pop up, but the threat of him has been influencing every single pick that's we've seen in the previous games.

09:39:36.200 --> 09:39:39.200
Yeah, and I think that was a really strong read by Puppy to ban the Lone Druid,

09:39:39.200 --> 09:39:43.200
because what other hero could justify banning a Stephanie in first pick?

09:39:43.200 --> 09:39:48.200
It is the Lone Druid, and you don't want to play against these SF plus Slardar matchups again versus him.

09:39:48.200 --> 09:39:52.440
versus him. Poppy is like, nah, we see you, we're not doing it. And they end up banning

09:39:52.440 --> 09:39:54.400
Urspirit at the end.

09:39:54.400 --> 09:39:57.200
Another big difference in this draft is that all the supports are in. We've been seeing

09:39:57.200 --> 09:40:00.480
all the supports getting banned out in all the previous games. Spirit in this position

09:40:00.480 --> 09:40:05.640
have been prioritizing Winter Wyvern a lot in previous games. And for Vision, we have

09:40:05.640 --> 09:40:08.640
the potential of an Ember coming out into a Slark ban. So there's a lot of these

09:40:08.640 --> 09:40:11.560
things that are going on right now and the conversations are surrounding these

09:40:11.560 --> 09:40:14.840
heroes and how we can counter them down the line if they do come out.

09:40:14.840 --> 09:40:18.260
There's also Bane that's been getting consistently banned that's been lept through

09:40:19.040 --> 09:40:24.400
Same thing with the Coddle provision. So I honestly like this adaptation provision saying we're bang support support

09:40:24.400 --> 09:40:27.440
It wasn't working. Okay, give them their sucks. Whatever will ban the cores instead

09:40:27.440 --> 09:40:32.680
I think there's a cool change up and force is a different angle that maybe spirit has less preparation for

09:40:34.020 --> 09:40:39.720
Again also an IO angle that this hero has emerged as one of the heroes of TI and

09:40:39.720 --> 09:40:44.480
And when you have the Winter Wyvern on your team, you could be preparing for it as well

09:40:44.480 --> 09:40:46.080
as a soft counter to the iron.

09:40:46.080 --> 09:40:47.480
Yeah, you're absolutely right.

09:40:47.480 --> 09:40:52.120
I mean, I think, even in the first game, when Vision played I.O., I feel like they never

09:40:52.120 --> 09:40:54.720
really got to play the hero.

09:40:54.720 --> 09:40:57.120
So it's something that they might still look for down the line.

09:40:57.120 --> 09:40:58.560
I think it's absolutely a threat.

09:40:58.560 --> 09:41:01.280
Wyvern is good against it, but it's such a strong hero that you're going to need

09:41:01.280 --> 09:41:03.560
more than that.

09:41:03.560 --> 09:41:06.600
We talked about a couple of times that Nine Class has been really heavily focused

09:41:06.600 --> 09:41:07.600
in the bands.

09:41:07.600 --> 09:41:12.240
This is also a good adaptation, saying he's been playing Hoodwing and Morrissey, and some

09:41:12.240 --> 09:41:14.400
heroes are a little bit less ideal for him.

09:41:14.400 --> 09:41:16.700
And so we're saying we're just going to give him a hero that's not only great against

09:41:16.700 --> 09:41:21.560
Winter Wyvern, but is just a super comfort hero for him and Vision have had a lot of

09:41:21.560 --> 09:41:22.560
success with.

09:41:22.560 --> 09:41:26.600
It opens up for a lot of combinations that Vision are really comfortable with, with

09:41:26.600 --> 09:41:28.800
the Cottle, like the Ember Spirit and the Pango.

09:41:28.800 --> 09:41:32.920
The Ember gets taken out, and I wonder if they care enough or are threatened enough

09:41:32.920 --> 09:41:35.600
by the Pango to address it or to just let it through.

09:41:35.600 --> 09:41:40.640
I mean it remains to be seen Wyvern I think is a pretty decent hero against pango in some ways because you can kind of

09:41:40.640 --> 09:41:46.940
Juke him out over hills you can play over cliffs you also have the curse if you manage to curse a strong turret hero to the pango it

09:41:46.940 --> 09:41:48.960
Sometimes almost immediately kills him

09:41:48.960 --> 09:41:51.640
So there is some counter play there with the Wyvern

09:41:51.800 --> 09:41:56.660
But I don't think it's again. It's not enough to dissuade you from picking pango if it's good against the rest of the heroes

09:41:57.300 --> 09:42:01.040
Yeah, definitely definitely still an option all the things you said are very true. I

09:42:01.040 --> 09:42:05.320
I think it's with Kotal, generally you want spell casting nids, right?

09:42:05.320 --> 09:42:09.320
You want to enable some hero that abuses the mana so you can farm faster

09:42:09.320 --> 09:42:11.220
and you can fight more, have more uptime on the map.

09:42:11.220 --> 09:42:13.880
That's one of Kotal's biggest strengths, is it allows your cores,

09:42:13.880 --> 09:42:16.600
especially your mid-hero, because subs just tend to play with the mid-hero.

09:42:16.600 --> 09:42:19.160
That means they can stay on the map, which gives you more attacks,

09:42:19.160 --> 09:42:23.020
allows you to defend more places because resources are such a huge part of the early game.

09:42:23.020 --> 09:42:27.220
I think that's absolutely one part of it, and the other part of Kotal's gameplay is the healing.

09:42:27.220 --> 09:42:30.720
And this is probably what has made Kotal into one of the strongest modern

09:42:30.720 --> 09:42:36.520
supports is that it heals and healing works really well with any sorts of damage reduction or if you're really tanky if you're

09:42:36.520 --> 09:42:40.160
You die too quickly the heels won't come in call it takes quite a while to wind up the heels

09:42:40.160 --> 09:42:45.040
So you want to make sure you have a tanky enough draft to where you can survive the initial round of spells from your opponents for the

09:42:45.040 --> 09:42:48.800
Heal to thank you. Yeah, very true and healing lineups are so problematic because

09:42:50.000 --> 09:42:53.760
Fires in Earth spirit and Ember spirits from the mid lane are already taken out

09:42:53.760 --> 09:43:00.000
The other ones that buy a vessel like what spirit aren't that good in the meta and anti-heal heroes like ancient operation are super

09:43:00.000 --> 09:43:06.440
So when you're playing against it is very pesty and you kind of solve it through insane damage from your carry

09:43:06.440 --> 09:43:11.260
And heroes like that like terribly banned out and Kez countered by dooms can't be picked here

09:43:12.520 --> 09:43:13.600
Yeah, it's a nice setup

09:43:13.600 --> 09:43:16.480
But that vision of her light on this doom previously in the tournament too also

09:43:16.760 --> 09:43:19.480
Doom against all of these like throughout history

09:43:19.920 --> 09:43:24.520
Super star players like we got miracles, you know, yatoro obviously when they get doomed

09:43:24.520 --> 09:43:25.680
They're not the same player

09:43:25.680 --> 09:43:28.860
They don't get to click buttons and it doesn't matter how good you are if you're stunned

09:43:28.860 --> 09:43:34.380
or if you're doomed and you're not allowed to press buttons, nobody, nobody, nobody how

09:43:34.380 --> 09:43:35.980
skilled you are to play the game.

09:43:35.980 --> 09:43:37.380
You'll sense ourselves it, right?

09:43:37.380 --> 09:43:38.900
Sampitaway from the doom.

09:43:38.900 --> 09:43:42.980
Also, not me, his clock has been left in the pool.

09:43:42.980 --> 09:43:45.940
He hasn't gotten his hands on this here yet.

09:43:45.940 --> 09:43:48.780
I'm curious to see if they go for a double melee off lane.

09:43:48.780 --> 09:43:52.660
It's not something that either team has really been favoring so far in this finals.

09:43:52.660 --> 09:43:53.660
People want strong lanes.

09:43:53.660 --> 09:43:56.820
They want to come in and fight you and contest the early game and not give

09:43:56.820 --> 09:43:58.620
you what you want and play a slower game.

09:43:58.620 --> 09:44:02.340
you want to start off on the right foot. So it is, it won't, you know,

09:44:02.340 --> 09:44:05.020
sacrifice a little bit of the early game if they go for the claw force here,

09:44:05.040 --> 09:44:07.820
but we've seen how much not he can do on the hero. Yeah. Okay.

09:44:07.980 --> 09:44:10.420
They just think he's just too good. Just give it to him.

09:44:10.820 --> 09:44:11.780
He's a bad guy.

09:44:11.940 --> 09:44:14.580
There was still that chance though that sentil plays mid.

09:44:14.580 --> 09:44:17.340
I'm not saying it's something that spirit necessarily love and center is

09:44:17.340 --> 09:44:19.020
such an archetype of a collapse here,

09:44:19.060 --> 09:44:22.580
but there is still that we don't want to fall into the trap of calling spirits

09:44:22.580 --> 09:44:25.140
bluff either about Loll's hero pool at this point in TI.

09:44:25.300 --> 09:44:27.740
I'm going to call your trap. And I think you've been talking too much to

09:44:27.740 --> 09:44:34.840
Falcons. Oh my god. I really hope you don't get a sun permit. I didn't say it was good. I'm just saying. Yeah. I mean

09:44:34.840 --> 09:44:40.600
It's a possibility. Absolutely. And you know that has been the ammo for this series, right? They keep tricking us and

09:44:41.560 --> 09:44:46.220
Vision into thinking this is what they're doing with their draft and in the last big they flop it all up

09:44:46.220 --> 09:44:48.220
So it is obviously a possibility

09:44:49.740 --> 09:44:51.740
In cities beneath at 1%

09:44:52.160 --> 09:44:55.760
Yeah, I think I'm like the Dota plus meter right now. Yeah, very far to life

09:44:55.760 --> 09:45:00.760
Yeah, it's a very fair suggestion because that's been the story of the series.

09:45:00.760 --> 09:45:05.760
But the reason why it works so well on Falcons is because Malarion likes to do it.

09:45:05.760 --> 09:45:11.760
I don't think Laurel is willing to do anything, but would he be willing to do this for his team?

09:45:11.760 --> 09:45:13.760
It is so boring.

09:45:13.760 --> 09:45:16.760
I mean, I feel like at this point we can't count him out,

09:45:16.760 --> 09:45:18.760
but I would think it's a collapse center.

09:45:18.760 --> 09:45:20.760
It's one of his signature heroes. He loves to play it.

09:45:20.760 --> 09:45:24.760
Vision also seemed to think that way because he decided to pick the lifestealer.

09:45:24.760 --> 09:45:29.960
There's quite a high commitment here once you pick it it needs to have a good lane if it doesn't the hero just seems useless

09:45:30.040 --> 09:45:35.580
So they think it is to they commit to this lane matchup and it is obviously pretty strong matchup for life

09:45:37.440 --> 09:45:41.980
Okay, and with this it seems like they are somewhat committed to it being

09:45:42.800 --> 09:45:44.800
Central offline I think

09:45:45.000 --> 09:45:48.520
I also think since our mid just doesn't scale the super wall against lifestealer

09:45:48.520 --> 09:45:51.720
So they're okay playing the lane and this is the lane where satanic will have complete free farm

09:45:51.720 --> 09:45:55.460
We've seen a couple of games now where spirit's got a lot of pressure on vision safe lane

09:45:55.460 --> 09:45:58.900
It's a tennis does not have the freest game that he would you know hope for and so in this game

09:45:58.900 --> 09:46:02.620
He will have that great start and ta also has a pretty good lane

09:46:02.620 --> 09:46:05.420
I think he gets doom it's a classic counter because even if you do him

09:46:05.420 --> 09:46:09.620
He just blink away because it goes on a refraction and then you haven't cancelled his blink yet

09:46:09.620 --> 09:46:14.340
So I think both carries are set up for good games, which you know, maybe we get the epic anime fight

09:46:14.340 --> 09:46:15.840
That's what I'm hoping for

09:46:15.840 --> 09:46:28.840
I do think that TA is a higher execution carry than lifestealer though, because she's been nerfed a lot on the lane, so she can't oppress the enemy offlaner the way that she used to, so the enemy offlaner will have more net worth than there are.

09:46:28.840 --> 09:46:36.840
And eventually, even if you can blink out, you get doomed, so it gets really hard to play in that late game, especially when doomed gets a lot of congregations of the deep with the Shiva's Guard.

09:46:36.840 --> 09:46:39.840
At that point, that hero is so absurd.

09:46:39.840 --> 09:46:42.880
Yeah, I always feel like once Doom gets to Sheva's eyes, the game is over.

09:46:42.880 --> 09:46:45.880
I've been saying it time and time again on the panel, but we never get to see it.

09:46:46.380 --> 09:46:49.180
But it is an incredibly strong end game timing.

09:46:49.940 --> 09:46:52.780
I will say TA against Caudal has quite a lot of things going for her.

09:46:53.020 --> 09:46:55.140
She's one of the heroes that can't get blasted in the lane.

09:46:55.140 --> 09:46:58.380
You just press refraction the moment you see the horses run towards you.

09:46:58.760 --> 09:47:01.060
It's quite a strong matchup in that regard.

09:47:01.060 --> 09:47:04.240
They have this pressure set up with a Winter Wyvern that can provide sustain

09:47:04.500 --> 09:47:06.700
to outlast any sort of damage that Doom can do to her.

09:47:06.700 --> 09:47:11.600
So, I quite like the Leaning Master for Spirit, and we've talked about it in the previous games,

09:47:11.600 --> 09:47:15.700
but this Leaning Pressure for them has been really important in order for them to win these games.

09:47:15.700 --> 09:47:17.700
So, for that regard, I really like the team.

09:47:17.700 --> 09:47:23.700
Yeah, she serves a purpose within the draft that we talked about earlier too, with healing lineups and how they're hard to break through.

09:47:23.700 --> 09:47:30.200
She is one of the high burst damage carries that can kill somebody before the Caudal Blast keeps coming out and keep piling up.

09:47:30.200 --> 09:47:36.600
I do worry about if she isn't playing Temple. If Spirit are on the back foot this game, I don't have that much faith in my hero.

09:47:36.600 --> 09:47:40.200
But if they can win the lanes like they have been the last few games, it should be fine.

09:47:40.200 --> 09:47:44.000
I do see one weakness of vision heroes that they lack.

09:47:44.000 --> 09:47:52.000
Like playmakers really, Doom is quite farming, Life Stealer is quite farming, and both their supports are heroes that want to sit behind another core who's making moves and cast spells.

09:47:52.000 --> 09:48:03.000
And so, as of now, Spirit kind of knows the archetype of mid hero they want, and that can make me mean that you can pick a hero that makes that pick very uncomfortable, or hard to lane, or bad for any number of reasons.

09:48:03.000 --> 09:48:08.520
And it also means that once again, T will have a super free game because there's no way she can really die in this game

09:48:09.120 --> 09:48:11.280
Barring some, you know, last-piction add-ins

09:48:12.760 --> 09:48:16.080
And I still am hanged over team vision

09:48:17.320 --> 09:48:20.920
The only counter would be the winter wyvern, but they need that puddle combination

09:48:20.920 --> 09:48:23.520
They need something that can play with more on his aggression

09:48:23.520 --> 09:48:28.480
I think leaving it is fair though from spirit because that actually begins clockwork is actually quite bad

09:48:28.480 --> 09:48:33.420
When he presses roll you just press cogs and it's very hard to see or even if you've got you know some

09:48:34.060 --> 09:48:35.860
Serious driver's license

09:48:35.860 --> 09:48:39.520
And on top of that TA when you're rolling in she can meld you and just keep

09:48:40.020 --> 09:48:42.820
Blasting you as she's sort of a traditional turret

09:48:42.820 --> 09:48:46.580
So it's not the easiest pangler game, but the coddle helps with some of those problems

09:48:46.580 --> 09:48:50.340
I mean the other deterrent is live and right you have the triple melee core lineup

09:48:50.340 --> 09:48:55.620
So the height is highly likely if you're playing pangler you're gonna have heroes post you that potentially you get cursed with you

09:48:55.620 --> 09:48:59.620
Is the White Spirit pickable for Vizon, Clint?

09:48:59.620 --> 09:49:06.620
It depends on the mid-hero. Up to supports, yes, absolutely. Netherrealm has very much lockdown, really.

09:49:06.620 --> 09:49:10.620
So, if you kind of dart in and out, you get on top of the Winter Wyvern, and you're very hard to pin down.

09:49:10.620 --> 09:49:14.620
It is just not a very good hero right now. We've seen it picked before.

09:49:14.620 --> 09:49:18.620
Lornav played it once during the main stage, and it did not look super great.

09:49:18.620 --> 09:49:22.620
And so, it's got to be a pretty perfect game for the hero, I think, to pull it out.

09:49:22.620 --> 09:49:29.960
It's a brave hero into doom.

09:49:29.960 --> 09:49:32.240
This hero can absolutely ruin your day.

09:49:32.240 --> 09:49:36.160
You generally a storm, like of course you can keep zipping around all the time and you'll

09:49:36.160 --> 09:49:38.980
never get doomed, but that drains your mana really quickly.

09:49:38.980 --> 09:49:41.980
And this hero actually relies on auto-attacking a lot more than people realize.

09:49:41.980 --> 09:49:45.480
You kind of want to sit in the place, hit a bit, use the zip to chase someone down.

09:49:45.480 --> 09:49:48.720
You don't really want to use it to just stay invulnerable the entire time.

09:49:48.720 --> 09:49:50.960
And you can explain this a lot better than I can.

09:49:50.960 --> 09:49:54.920
No, it's absolutely true and I think it's a very underrated part of Stormstorm, for all

09:49:54.920 --> 09:49:58.700
intents and purposes it's just a right click hero and the zip is a way of getting close

09:49:58.700 --> 09:50:00.400
and getting far away from people.

09:50:00.400 --> 09:50:04.680
So if you can't stand there and hit, that means you don't actually do any damage because

09:50:04.680 --> 09:50:08.760
just flying around doesn't, you don't just do it and you cast one static rammin, okay

09:50:08.760 --> 09:50:10.000
it's a 300 damage move.

09:50:10.000 --> 09:50:13.120
That's not enough for a core contribution in a fight.

09:50:13.120 --> 09:50:17.760
It is still in a way denying vision, being able to have a good coddle combo from

09:50:17.760 --> 09:50:19.320
the mid in that Storm Spirit.

09:50:19.320 --> 09:50:23.320
You don't have an infinite amount of ban, so leaving it in, picking it up for yourself,

09:50:23.320 --> 09:50:27.840
even if it does feel scary playing it into Doom, it at least makes Vision have to think

09:50:27.840 --> 09:50:31.720
a bit more and then talk with the Sand King lost pick.

09:50:31.720 --> 09:50:36.800
Yeah, the Sand King is just solving the issue of now you have a Storm Spirit, we don't

09:50:36.800 --> 09:50:39.360
have enough stuns, how do we deal with the Storm Spirit?

09:50:39.360 --> 09:50:42.200
And nothing really was left in the pool aside from the Sand King.

09:50:42.200 --> 09:50:45.480
Yeah, and I mean it's not the Falcon's influence that we talked about earlier,

09:50:45.480 --> 09:50:48.080
but we definitely see the reference on this final, right?

09:50:48.080 --> 09:50:50.440
The Sand King mid comes out, Meldrinn special.

09:50:50.440 --> 09:50:52.360
I do remember no one, you know,

09:50:52.360 --> 09:50:53.920
they obviously played top three at last TI.

09:50:53.920 --> 09:50:55.560
Last TI was a lot about these Sand Kings

09:50:55.560 --> 09:50:57.480
and Earthshakers and this archetype of hero mid.

09:50:57.480 --> 09:50:59.360
So he's definitely played this before.

09:50:59.360 --> 09:51:01.400
He knows how the hero works.

09:51:01.400 --> 09:51:03.600
He's like, oh God, mid, Sand King again?

09:51:03.600 --> 09:51:06.280
That's why I have to witness this.

09:51:06.280 --> 09:51:08.640
There will be a lot of trying to draw the mid lane

09:51:08.640 --> 09:51:09.560
and playing off stacks.

09:51:09.560 --> 09:51:11.200
That's so much about what this hero is about.

09:51:11.200 --> 09:51:12.240
If he doesn't pressure you,

09:51:12.240 --> 09:51:13.560
that's very hard to pressure him.

09:51:13.560 --> 09:51:15.680
And so attacking vision's triangle,

09:51:15.680 --> 09:51:35.680
I think it's a good job of pulling it back. And it's a game that I think they should be very happy with. Honestly, I think the draft is is the best so far and that's super easy to share.

09:51:35.680 --> 09:51:39.680
is the best so far and it's not super easy for Spirit.

09:51:39.680 --> 09:51:41.680
When you talk about, sorry, very quickly,

09:51:41.680 --> 09:51:43.680
you're talking about invading that tribe trying to take stacks,

09:51:43.680 --> 09:51:46.680
which hero on the side of Spirit is going to utilize that the best

09:51:46.680 --> 09:51:48.680
and you're hoping it's going to be able to take advantage of it.

09:51:48.680 --> 09:51:50.680
Probably anybody but Centaur.

09:51:50.680 --> 09:51:53.680
If you're doing wall and lanes, just charge and get in there.

09:51:53.680 --> 09:51:56.680
Yeah, I mean this top lane I think is going to determine a lot.

09:51:56.680 --> 09:51:58.680
Whether how does TA match up into Doomgoes,

09:51:58.680 --> 09:52:02.680
I think will determine whether they can actually invade a triangle or not.

09:52:02.680 --> 09:52:04.680
And if they're able to do that, they're set up in a great position

09:52:04.680 --> 09:52:07.260
position and if they're not able to do it out, I think it's quite tricky to

09:52:07.260 --> 09:52:08.260
listen to the end.

09:52:08.260 --> 09:52:13.820
I think it's very important for vision supports to be able to enable no one

09:52:13.820 --> 09:52:17.260
sanking and play with them because team spirit sports have been running mid and

09:52:17.260 --> 09:52:21.660
playing with Laurel for the last few games and if they can get some combos

09:52:21.660 --> 09:52:25.220
going with the impale into Marana Aero this game will be a lot more even than

09:52:25.220 --> 09:52:26.220
the last one.

09:52:26.220 --> 09:52:29.020
So there's more faith then in the earlier part of what vision have for

09:52:29.020 --> 09:52:31.740
themselves but then the question is because Spirit have already coined that

09:52:31.740 --> 09:52:35.080
They can play every type of game, every playstyle needed.

09:52:35.080 --> 09:52:37.520
Is that late game also still incredibly favorable

09:52:37.520 --> 09:52:39.080
if vision just want to sit back and farm?

09:52:39.080 --> 09:52:42.040
I think vision has a much stronger scaling in this game

09:52:42.040 --> 09:52:43.320
than they had in any other game.

09:52:43.320 --> 09:52:44.160
Oh, wow.

09:52:44.160 --> 09:52:45.640
Yeah, I totally agree.

09:52:45.640 --> 09:52:48.440
All right, that is a lot of props to vision

09:52:48.440 --> 09:52:51.480
and being able to take advantage of that longer break there.

09:52:51.480 --> 09:52:53.840
But we are instead going to be talking to Spirits Coach

09:52:53.840 --> 09:52:56.160
if Maposhka is standing by with slacks.

09:52:56.160 --> 09:52:56.680
Thank you so much.

09:52:56.680 --> 09:53:00.080
Yes, here with Maposhka, one more game,

09:53:00.080 --> 09:53:03.680
One more game to be one of the most legendary Dota players of all time.

09:53:04.240 --> 09:53:06.360
I just want to talk to you about how you're feeling right now, man.

09:53:06.560 --> 09:53:07.360
We're going into it.

09:53:08.960 --> 09:53:09.720
A bit nervous.

09:53:11.000 --> 09:53:12.640
A bit nervous? You, the goat?

09:53:13.080 --> 09:53:18.720
Well, of course, of course, it's like I'm excited for one more game, as you said.

09:53:19.080 --> 09:53:22.240
And I can't believe in our draft, I see an idea.

09:53:23.720 --> 09:53:25.760
And I'm sure that we can win this game.

09:53:25.760 --> 09:53:33.260
So that's why I'm nervous, because they also might win, they also have some good idea in their life, so you'll see.

09:53:33.260 --> 09:53:37.560
You made the best team win, man. I did want to ask you about being a leader in your region.

09:53:37.560 --> 09:53:42.360
You've trained up so many incredible talents, especially when Satanic was starting off.

09:53:42.360 --> 09:53:47.260
I know that you had a big relationship with him. You raised him up from the ground.

09:53:47.260 --> 09:53:48.760
Do you regret that? Is that a...

09:53:48.760 --> 09:53:50.360
Yeah, yeah, it's true, it's true.

09:53:50.360 --> 09:53:51.560
Do you regret that at all?

09:53:51.560 --> 09:53:52.560
What?

09:53:52.560 --> 09:53:55.260
Regret? Making Satanic good?

09:53:55.260 --> 09:53:57.260
I don't know what these regrets are.

09:53:58.460 --> 09:54:00.660
Well, I'm sure there are no regrets going in this series.

09:54:00.660 --> 09:54:04.660
Thank you so much and incredible to have you here and we will get into that game.

09:54:06.560 --> 09:54:08.660
Here we go. Game four time, ladies and gentlemen.

09:54:08.660 --> 09:54:11.060
Here the grand finals of the International 2026.

09:54:11.060 --> 09:54:13.260
Spirit versus vision and the draft.

09:54:13.260 --> 09:54:15.660
They continue to excite fogs right up until the end.

09:54:15.960 --> 09:54:19.160
We're getting maybe a couple of minutes that we have seen,

09:54:19.360 --> 09:54:23.760
but something that I didn't necessarily expect to see in this sort of situation here from these two teams.

09:54:23.760 --> 09:54:27.600
Loro, bring in the storm, and then this pick-and-response, no one.

09:54:27.600 --> 09:54:29.360
He's coming in with his mid-sign cake.

09:54:29.360 --> 09:54:31.840
Very interesting approaches coming out from both sides.

09:54:31.840 --> 09:54:34.480
Lots of iconic heroes the teams do like to play with.

09:54:34.480 --> 09:54:36.480
Loro, his storm is one of his best.

09:54:36.480 --> 09:54:38.960
The TA, we don't see that many people playing it,

09:54:38.960 --> 09:54:41.280
but Gatoro, it's another iconic one for him.

09:54:41.280 --> 09:54:43.040
And talking about some of these supports,

09:54:43.040 --> 09:54:44.400
we have to mention them.

09:54:44.400 --> 09:54:46.800
Nine-class, this time playing his Caudal,

09:54:46.800 --> 09:54:48.720
we did mention what he could try to do

09:54:48.720 --> 09:54:49.920
on the Marseille man last game,

09:54:49.920 --> 09:54:51.920
but started to feel the weaknesses of it.

09:54:51.920 --> 09:54:57.200
His Coddle is absolutely amazing, and in it not me, playing his absolutely legendary Coddler,

09:54:57.200 --> 09:55:00.560
he has been a game breaker for so many of different teams.

09:55:00.560 --> 09:55:03.920
He's just been able to do so much with this hero that so many other players haven't

09:55:03.920 --> 09:55:06.880
after some of these nerfs. So my big eyes are in those two players.

09:55:06.880 --> 09:55:10.800
Yes, the cores end up doing so much of these games, but my eyes are on the four positions.

09:55:10.800 --> 09:55:15.520
So now, I mean, all in all, what did these two drafts sort of say to you in terms of how

09:55:15.520 --> 09:55:20.480
the teams wanted to play? Are we seeing for Amvision do something that they've already

09:55:20.480 --> 09:55:23.840
done so far this grand finals or is one of these teams switching it up a bit

09:55:23.840 --> 09:55:27.440
more than the other relative to what they've played so far. It's different drafts

09:55:27.440 --> 09:55:30.920
but you can see some different styles as both teams being like we're gonna have the

09:55:30.920 --> 09:55:33.800
late game, no we're gonna have the late game but then you look this time with

09:55:33.800 --> 09:55:38.920
this San King last pick it does seem like a fantastic answer to be able to get to this late game scaling

09:55:38.920 --> 09:55:41.900
because they will have this chainstone that can come out, they have a coddle that's

09:55:41.900 --> 09:55:45.620
synergized with it and if he can get these big connections with his Effies

09:55:45.620 --> 09:55:48.960
it's gonna be able to bypass the wider and saves bypass the potential

09:55:48.960 --> 09:55:51.200
that Cent are protecting some of these heroes too,

09:55:51.200 --> 09:55:52.920
because it is that much overwhelming damage.

09:55:52.920 --> 09:55:54.400
So I quite like this pick.

09:55:54.400 --> 09:55:56.200
I'm not sure if it's gonna fully end up working out,

09:55:56.200 --> 09:55:59.000
but I do like the idea that I see behind the safety.

09:56:00.200 --> 09:56:01.560
You can pull it to see what no one's gonna be able

09:56:01.560 --> 09:56:02.400
to be doing it.

09:56:02.400 --> 09:56:05.440
He is a fantastic playmaker from the mid.

09:56:05.440 --> 09:56:08.200
Something a little different from him personally

09:56:08.200 --> 09:56:10.640
in response to what we've had from him

09:56:10.640 --> 09:56:12.640
elsewise on the mid hero.

09:56:12.640 --> 09:56:15.280
Bottom, Arrow will connect onto collapse,

09:56:15.280 --> 09:56:16.680
tend to try to trade.

09:56:16.680 --> 09:56:18.760
Back and forth play, this is this double melee

09:56:18.760 --> 09:56:24.640
the strength hero. Double strength as well too. We'll see what St. Tannen can do. Had a

09:56:24.640 --> 09:56:29.320
very solid life stealer showing up here in this ground finals. He set up for success in

09:56:29.320 --> 09:56:33.160
this lane, right? He should be able to farm pretty consistent down here unless not he does

09:56:33.160 --> 09:56:36.760
some type of crazy cog play, which we can't write that off of course, the amount of nuts

09:56:36.760 --> 09:56:40.400
he really is on this hero. Spirits look very good in their lanes though. Across

09:56:40.400 --> 09:56:44.320
the board every single one of their games. They're able to secure the free farm especially

09:56:44.320 --> 09:56:47.720
for your Toro and every single one of those. This looks at one of those where he is

09:56:47.720 --> 09:56:53.320
He's gonna get away with that free-farm. Play versus Doom and a Coddle. Refraction, incredible versus the Coddle Blast.

09:56:53.320 --> 09:56:56.820
And then just the Malph versus that Doom. Every time he walks in he needs a Malphit.

09:56:58.020 --> 09:57:00.420
I mean, how old are the heroes that we have?

09:57:00.420 --> 09:57:02.820
Which one would you say you sort of have the...

09:57:02.820 --> 09:57:07.220
Not necessarily the doubts, but the sort of question mark about that might have a tough game?

09:57:08.020 --> 09:57:10.020
From what we've learned so far, this international.

09:57:11.020 --> 09:57:16.920
I would say it would be the storm from what we see, but the lack of stunning control could take a lot of the time.

09:57:16.920 --> 09:57:21.960
It should be a good stone. Yeah, but I feel like we have felt that in some of the other times. We've seen still

09:57:22.720 --> 09:57:24.680
It hasn't always gone great for the hero

09:57:24.680 --> 09:57:29.200
We'll see how much help he gets because like the panel was talking about something that spirits them pretty much every single one of their games

09:57:29.200 --> 09:57:31.600
Even if Laurel does struggle they help him online

09:57:31.640 --> 09:57:35.120
They'll send the double supports that people to ensure that he gets off to a good start

09:57:35.440 --> 09:57:39.160
And yeah, I'm looking forward to see what Laurel can do with piercing back lines finding the coddle

09:57:39.160 --> 09:57:42.920
I think we have similar type of strategy from both of the midlaners where one yes

09:57:42.920 --> 09:57:45.440
He's a right-clicking core that's going to be scaling that's the score skirt

09:57:45.440 --> 09:57:48.720
While the same king, he does the same type of thing when he jumps the backline.

09:57:48.720 --> 09:57:50.920
Climbs the Wyvern, the storm jumps the Coddle.

09:57:50.920 --> 09:57:54.040
So, this interesting dynamic between the two that has similarities.

09:57:54.040 --> 09:57:56.600
And we're seeing this already at this point, 9th class.

09:57:56.600 --> 09:58:00.940
They're not playing to win that top lane, of course, since it is this Coddle plus Doom versus TA Wyvern.

09:58:00.940 --> 09:58:02.280
The TA Wyvern has a clear advantage.

09:58:02.280 --> 09:58:03.640
He's gonna play the stacking game.

09:58:03.640 --> 09:58:06.940
So, already getting those built up, it's gonna be fantastic for no one.

09:58:06.940 --> 09:58:10.440
He's gonna do well in the lane, and then he's gonna go to the back up and get those stacks as well.

09:58:10.440 --> 09:58:13.940
So, very important for them to have that, for this nice mid-game timing.

09:58:13.940 --> 09:58:17.940
Vision, they did secure themselves with quite a lot of teamfight this time around too.

09:58:18.940 --> 09:58:25.940
Last time round, obviously the importance of how the carry matchup played out between these Terriblades and SF.

09:58:25.940 --> 09:58:31.940
This time round, with the lifestealer and the TA, how the sort of the timings come into play there.

09:58:32.940 --> 09:58:37.940
Quite different styles. I haven't seen this matchup as much nowadays with the agonimus and the lifestealer where you can jump inside the TA.

09:58:37.940 --> 09:58:42.580
jump inside of the TA, but in the past for some time, TA just accelerates that one faster

09:58:42.580 --> 09:58:45.740
because you get the death zone, you're the one that's setting the pace of the game, you're

09:58:45.740 --> 09:58:48.780
getting roll shot and you're playing with a big advantage over something like Life Stealer,

09:58:48.780 --> 09:58:52.180
so curious to see how it's going to end up going down.

09:58:52.180 --> 09:58:56.060
The mana bird is starting to kick in, not me, soon as he gets the level 2 cards,

09:58:56.060 --> 09:58:59.820
he ends up just winning lanes that aren't supposed to win a lot of time, so Collapse,

09:58:59.820 --> 09:59:03.180
he's getting a lot out of the lane versus the lights, but sometimes we have seen

09:59:03.180 --> 09:59:06.460
these lights there to be able to pull lead.

09:59:06.460 --> 09:59:10.240
at least as the live still you know it's at least a carry that doesn't care too much

09:59:10.240 --> 09:59:14.060
it's annoying getting his mana burned but still able to lane still able to

09:59:14.060 --> 09:59:18.100
sustain despite the fact that he's having all his mana being taken away by

09:59:18.100 --> 09:59:21.360
this pesky clockwork oh absolutely and looking forward to see what

09:59:21.360 --> 09:59:24.460
do callus is gonna do how's that mid rotation gonna look he's gonna be able

09:59:24.460 --> 09:59:27.060
to get the connection with the chain stun for the sanking to get the kill

09:59:27.060 --> 09:59:29.820
on the storm that's how they have to kill the storm that's really their

09:59:29.820 --> 09:59:33.580
only stun combo so they have to get it perfectly connected

09:59:33.580 --> 09:59:36.580
I looked towards in the flip of six online.

09:59:36.580 --> 09:59:38.580
Not a lot that can be done with these two.

09:59:38.580 --> 09:59:40.580
Chakra will be there, so no one will have the mana.

09:59:40.580 --> 09:59:43.580
They'll have another stun potentially clearing out the wave.

09:59:43.580 --> 09:59:47.580
So this wave is going to shove into Laurel, which might secure no one to run as well too.

09:59:49.580 --> 09:59:52.580
Double rotation from the supports. This time it's vision with the earlier run.

09:59:52.580 --> 09:59:53.580
These two supports in no one. Action!

09:59:53.580 --> 09:59:55.580
Is that you're ready to go aggressive one and not me?

09:59:55.580 --> 09:59:57.580
Had the first drag into the arrow, not me?

09:59:57.580 --> 09:59:59.580
We'll drop down the cogs. Try and get out of this.

09:59:59.580 --> 10:00:00.580
Actually, perspective.

10:00:00.580 --> 10:00:06.500
Unable to find that extra connection can't go for the leap place through the Cogs double D-Wards for Ducales

10:00:06.920 --> 10:00:10.780
Reading where these odds are placed from not me. That's two of them. He's been able to grab

10:00:10.780 --> 10:00:12.940
It's a lot of experience you get this early in the game

10:00:14.060 --> 10:00:16.400
In the minute of a 10-ton to Lala's a lot of first

10:00:17.900 --> 10:00:23.100
Still always gonna be quite a tough kill to find in the early stages

10:00:25.180 --> 10:00:27.740
That's a big deal that Ducales gets this double office work

10:00:27.740 --> 10:00:31.540
He's gonna be very high level on Marana. This is a decent damage dealing support too

10:00:31.540 --> 10:00:35.980
If you do get off to a good start and he is crucial for this game to have that change son first of the storm

10:00:35.980 --> 10:00:40.620
I mean and that's gonna keep this area of the map so safe for satanic right in a game as well where

10:00:40.860 --> 10:00:47.120
It's not gonna be the easiest to gank this live stealer right through trying to get aggressive here to steal the wisdom

10:00:47.420 --> 10:00:49.420
for the seven-minute play

10:00:50.540 --> 10:00:53.440
Should be able to hold the car itself this Dean notice

10:00:53.440 --> 10:00:56.540
Finishing off through, we'll see them all drive for the play.

10:00:56.540 --> 10:00:58.040
Satanic coming in with the bridge.

10:00:58.040 --> 10:00:59.640
Arrow off to collapse, look at the Houston.

10:00:59.640 --> 10:01:01.440
But the 4-6 is there, onto Satanic.

10:01:01.440 --> 10:01:03.040
But no one, he's here to help out.

10:01:03.040 --> 10:01:04.540
Lowell has to zip away.

10:01:04.540 --> 10:01:06.540
Corkz pushing back onto Wozda Kales.

10:01:06.540 --> 10:01:08.440
We'll take him down.

10:01:08.440 --> 10:01:11.440
No one, claim the Shrine of Wisdom.

10:01:11.440 --> 10:01:12.740
Fiverr movement there from no one.

10:01:12.740 --> 10:01:13.940
They'll be able to gain the double,

10:01:13.940 --> 10:01:16.340
and they also get the first blood for Doom.

10:01:16.340 --> 10:01:18.440
Which, I mean, you wouldn't really expect in this game

10:01:18.440 --> 10:01:19.840
in the lane that he's been put up against,

10:01:19.840 --> 10:01:22.240
but because he finds the Wyvern on the side alone,

10:01:22.240 --> 10:01:24.240
This Doom is now level 6.

10:01:25.520 --> 10:01:27.920
Very big deal for Bizarre to have this type of start into the game.

10:01:27.920 --> 10:01:29.280
The Lifestealer is free farming,

10:01:29.280 --> 10:01:32.320
Sanke's off to a good start with stacks to go back to,

10:01:32.320 --> 10:01:35.280
and Doom now at this point overperforming to what maybe he could have had.

10:01:35.280 --> 10:01:38.240
Having able to make those plays on both sides of the map at the same time,

10:01:38.240 --> 10:01:39.440
has 7 minutes in.

10:01:39.440 --> 10:01:41.440
I really like that move from no one.

10:01:41.440 --> 10:01:44.720
And Sanke took the similar thing of the Monkey King of the old days

10:01:44.720 --> 10:01:47.200
where you just go to that shrine.

10:01:47.200 --> 10:01:48.160
How are you going to contest him?

10:01:48.160 --> 10:01:50.560
That sandstone gets popped down, it's way too much damage.

10:01:50.560 --> 10:01:51.060
Me?

10:01:51.060 --> 10:01:51.560
Medic?

10:01:52.560 --> 10:01:53.560
I'll fight everybody at the cork.

10:01:53.560 --> 10:01:55.560
Come on, Trim, at least the first one.

10:01:55.560 --> 10:01:57.560
What if they've even been close to threatening him there?

10:01:57.560 --> 10:01:59.560
If they've got the two connections, he's super low.

10:01:59.560 --> 10:02:01.560
He might still be a jeopardy here.

10:02:01.560 --> 10:02:03.560
Nottby is trying to close the gap, but Zatanic, he beats the movement,

10:02:03.560 --> 10:02:05.560
will be able to distance himself away.

10:02:05.560 --> 10:02:06.560
Oh, will he?

10:02:06.560 --> 10:02:07.560
I mean, Nottby is stalking.

10:02:07.560 --> 10:02:09.560
He's trying to just be a big greedy here, Zatanic.

10:02:11.560 --> 10:02:13.560
Hogs, can you line him up?

10:02:13.560 --> 10:02:14.560
Wire one.

10:02:14.560 --> 10:02:15.560
Whoop.

10:02:15.560 --> 10:02:16.560
Whoop.

10:02:16.560 --> 10:02:17.560
Whoop.

10:02:17.560 --> 10:02:18.560
Whoop.

10:02:18.560 --> 10:02:20.720
But get the second for the battery, so...

10:02:20.720 --> 10:02:23.440
Oh, it's coming! Oh, my God! I don't know why I can't get it!

10:02:23.440 --> 10:02:27.360
Static lives a good effort there from not me.

10:02:27.360 --> 10:02:29.040
Static ready with the Dodges.

10:02:29.040 --> 10:02:31.760
Static's had practice versus this minigame. Quite a life here.

10:02:31.760 --> 10:02:33.840
Rude. Rotation's coming in from notice.

10:02:33.840 --> 10:02:36.720
He's ready to swing across from the top lane.

10:02:36.720 --> 10:02:39.520
Rude looking pretty dead here, caught in the sandstorm.

10:02:39.520 --> 10:02:40.960
This is going to be a very fun scene.

10:02:40.960 --> 10:02:43.040
I mean, they're building up the kills here early vision.

10:02:43.040 --> 10:02:45.120
And they're going to be able to keep this coming in right.

10:02:45.120 --> 10:02:47.440
We're going to expect a lot of fast plays from no one.

10:02:47.440 --> 10:02:51.880
obviously going for this blink dagger rush it's gonna be such a fast pace that

10:02:51.880 --> 10:02:54.520
he gets it because of those stacks he was able to just go back and clear he

10:02:54.520 --> 10:02:59.800
finishes them super quick because he has this good entry into the game 4 4 0 he

10:02:59.800 --> 10:03:02.360
can wait to go for the epicenter afterwards to look for the place once

10:03:02.360 --> 10:03:05.400
he's got the blink dagger just a question of whether or not Lyle's

10:03:05.400 --> 10:03:08.400
gonna be able to keep up with the tempo on the storm spirit a hero that in

10:03:08.400 --> 10:03:12.080
some of these mid-match ups it just failed to be able to do as much as the

10:03:12.080 --> 10:03:15.720
enemy hero and hard for Laurel right to set up games on these side lanes

10:03:15.720 --> 10:03:19.500
He's playing into the life stealer. It's just not an easy way to go for these type of plays

10:03:19.500 --> 10:03:21.520
You can't just go through that lane gank him very easy

10:03:21.520 --> 10:03:24.960
He's got the built-in rage. He's also level six. So he's got the invest out too

10:03:24.960 --> 10:03:28.960
So yes, I saw Laurel how he's going to react to this type of start here from the same king

10:03:29.880 --> 10:03:36.120
Make and damage for him. Mal. He's gonna jump in. He does not have a lot of mana the Arakans in LoL's deck

10:03:37.680 --> 10:03:40.920
He cannot make moves like that a very

10:03:40.920 --> 10:03:44.400
aggressive play zipping into the river even if they didn't catch him in the

10:03:44.400 --> 10:03:47.160
stunts I don't know if he would have had enough mana to break away from them

10:03:47.160 --> 10:03:51.480
that was a move gone horribly wrong there for Loll these storms have had

10:03:51.480 --> 10:03:54.360
trouble in this tournament we've seen it time and time again no one now you've

10:03:54.360 --> 10:03:58.360
been able to invade they see a triple stack they actually I don't know if they

10:03:58.360 --> 10:04:01.240
saw it he pulled the cap away as they did right they do see that that's

10:04:01.240 --> 10:04:05.840
gonna be quite juicy here the vision no one at this point he's gonna have

10:04:05.840 --> 10:04:08.760
the blink dagger at one of the record timings that we do see he's

10:04:08.760 --> 10:04:16.040
crushing it here. A very very nice pick it looks to be so far. Dicast will get brought down here.

10:04:16.680 --> 10:04:20.680
But yeah the early blink dagger could lead to a very early kill onto Yatoro as well too because

10:04:20.680 --> 10:04:24.360
we are seeing Yatoro that pacing is there like we're talking about. Think about the TA

10:04:24.360 --> 10:04:28.440
comparison to the left killer you do farm that much faster so you just have that built-in

10:04:28.440 --> 10:04:32.440
cleave essentially from your side blades to just jungle with them. But the fact that the

10:04:32.440 --> 10:04:35.720
Sankin's gonna have a blink dagger so early he could just go to that lane throw the

10:04:35.720 --> 10:04:40.200
the epicenter with the sandstorm. Super effective tool versus that refraction early. He's got

10:04:40.200 --> 10:04:44.720
it done already Owen. Pressure, praise you Tommy. Definitely going to be on for Yatoro

10:04:44.720 --> 10:04:49.400
in this game. That's the thing Rafa. Spirit, I feel like they've got to put everything

10:04:49.400 --> 10:04:53.960
in to just protecting Yatoro, making sure that he can stay on top of the net worth

10:04:53.960 --> 10:04:57.320
because the offensive sort of moves against the live stealer, that option just doesn't

10:04:57.320 --> 10:05:00.840
seem to be there with the heroes they have. So they have to prioritize just making

10:05:00.840 --> 10:05:04.720
sure that Yatoro can stay ahead. That's how much not me can do. He does have

10:05:04.720 --> 10:05:07.520
the level three cards now. A lot of times when I've seen him get level three

10:05:07.520 --> 10:05:10.840
cards and level four times, he dictates and he breaks a lot of moves that a team

10:05:10.840 --> 10:05:14.240
wants to do as well too. Let's see if that's gonna be the case, but no one

10:05:14.240 --> 10:05:16.320
driving up the epi.

10:05:16.320 --> 10:05:22.400
Very calm, the map has the team spirit. Tons of pressure applied on tomorrow.

10:05:22.400 --> 10:05:26.080
They do have to stampede in order to bail out versus some of these moves that

10:05:26.080 --> 10:05:29.240
the panel was talking about. Some limited stuns and control that can be

10:05:29.240 --> 10:05:33.200
there for vision, but stampede right now on cooldown. No one with this type

10:05:33.200 --> 10:05:35.720
We start to the damage might be enough with just one time

10:05:38.640 --> 10:05:44.360
And shock as we have to say to right there is an always be the refresh to so they can't get that secondary stuff pretty soon afterwards

10:05:44.960 --> 10:05:47.240
This tower dropping no one

10:05:48.160 --> 10:05:51.520
threatening and with the FSM circuit sees a chance to jump

10:05:52.640 --> 10:05:54.640
So dangerous for Laurel to show

10:05:56.200 --> 10:06:01.880
The revenue up every single time he steps up just a bit far. They will just move it for

10:06:03.200 --> 10:06:10.200
Nami will be there to deter them, try to protect at least a bit here, it's only level 5 though, you can also send it, no one can, he's ready to go.

10:06:10.200 --> 10:06:16.200
Now after Gorda breaks to try and protect Nami but still a lot of magical damage coming out and it sets up for the arrow to connect.

10:06:16.200 --> 10:06:19.200
No, no one the manner tries to turn it was open enough, but it's not.

10:06:19.200 --> 10:06:26.200
Nami's there to use the cards to give space for lobster back away from no one and allow Yutora to move in and take no one down.

10:06:26.200 --> 10:06:32.200
He's got the vessel finished up, yet she could not get a vessel stacked from the hit, that was weird, that's the one I'm happy with.

10:06:32.200 --> 10:06:38.640
We're in full move there from Yatora.

10:06:38.640 --> 10:06:41.480
He's gonna, I don't afford to let Loll go down that.

10:06:41.480 --> 10:06:43.560
He's gonna be the key to watch as he does have that big advantage.

10:06:43.560 --> 10:06:47.440
If we set the pacing from TA compared to Life Stealer, he can turn up a lot easier.

10:06:47.440 --> 10:06:49.800
Life Stealer, when he's got the Radiance, Tana can do a lot more.

10:06:49.800 --> 10:06:54.200
But looking at the level of disparity too, they're giving Yatora all the XP as well.

10:06:54.200 --> 10:06:55.200
He's about to be leveled.

10:06:55.200 --> 10:06:57.440
Wow, it's only 13 minutes in.

10:06:57.440 --> 10:07:02.840
Notice, he's gonna go for that drum shard build that we do like to save, eating those

10:07:02.840 --> 10:07:07.080
ancients continue to get that farm, hoping for a black dragon so we can get that extra

10:07:07.080 --> 10:07:08.080
farm.

10:07:08.080 --> 10:07:12.960
Looking to punish him with his speedy, very odd to set up under the storm.

10:07:12.960 --> 10:07:16.960
And I think the next time for no one, probably gonna try to save this epicenter for a court

10:07:16.960 --> 10:07:20.080
kill, because sure, he got the clockwork but ends up paying with his life.

10:07:20.080 --> 10:07:23.740
Smoke move from Vision, might catch Spirit off guard.

10:07:24.240 --> 10:07:25.240
Hey, white Yatora.

10:07:28.440 --> 10:07:29.240
I'm lost.

10:07:29.240 --> 10:07:30.240
Hey, white Nectar too.

10:07:30.240 --> 10:07:32.280
Get him there with the bar strike on to the boat with an hour connection energy.

10:07:32.280 --> 10:07:36.080
Sorry, did not the refraction up already, so bit of protection in the stat piece there.

10:07:36.080 --> 10:07:37.080
Get him away.

10:07:37.080 --> 10:07:41.080
Four checks over the board, no one's left, moves in, but he's completely out of mana.

10:07:41.080 --> 10:07:42.440
No one trying to step away.

10:07:42.440 --> 10:07:45.240
Notice, gets in, drops the dude down onto Yatora,

10:07:45.240 --> 10:07:46.840
it's a car that's jumping over the extra bar.

10:07:46.840 --> 10:07:50.280
Shitora will take out, he's gonna try and bring those kills with him.

10:07:50.280 --> 10:07:53.720
Won't manage to get to Kallus to die alongside him.

10:07:53.720 --> 10:07:56.220
But that is Shitora gone. Vision.

10:07:56.220 --> 10:07:59.820
Bringing in the aggression around that top tier one, they get away with it.

10:07:59.820 --> 10:08:02.560
Really nice double stun. It looked close for a second though

10:08:02.560 --> 10:08:04.800
because he did get the refraction off before the initial stun

10:08:04.800 --> 10:08:06.700
and actually blocked a fair bit of that damage there.

10:08:06.700 --> 10:08:08.760
But good persistence from Vision.

10:08:08.760 --> 10:08:11.760
Slow down the TA, allow the life students to catch back up.

10:08:11.760 --> 10:08:21.220
Saitanic. Very, very close to having that Radiance timing and that will allow him to

10:08:21.220 --> 10:08:24.660
start closing the gap in farm between him and Yatora.

10:08:24.660 --> 10:08:28.740
And he can show up to fights. He's got methods of delivery, right? He's got this Sand King.

10:08:28.740 --> 10:08:34.260
He can jump inside. He can invest. He can be that gap closes well, Gris of the GA.

10:08:34.260 --> 10:08:37.460
Laurel, standard build. He's going to be going down for this switchblade, but he

10:08:37.460 --> 10:08:40.460
is bottom of the course already. He's in a rough spot, and I'll be sad. Multiple

10:08:40.460 --> 10:08:47.260
We've seen this before a very difficult hero to make work right now

10:08:47.980 --> 10:08:49.980
Well, it's got a tough time ahead

10:08:51.540 --> 10:08:53.040
Nice

10:08:53.040 --> 10:08:55.040
It's gonna be able to grab in with the hookshot

10:08:55.300 --> 10:08:59.180
Cogs connect nine fast go down. No one's gonna jump in and try and take through out in return

10:08:59.700 --> 10:09:04.820
No one eating cogs as well to what often that bird tried back up in a second over the cell again

10:09:04.820 --> 10:09:06.820
Who used it to get away from them?

10:09:06.820 --> 10:09:10.980
3K lead at the moment here for vision, great moves around the map and a lot to

10:09:10.980 --> 10:09:14.180
call us watching his movements and the levels that he has this early on this

10:09:14.180 --> 10:09:17.820
Marana level 8 already so he's got the good follow-up level 2 arrow that

10:09:17.820 --> 10:09:20.980
extra stun extra burst and just max star storm you're seeing the damage

10:09:20.980 --> 10:09:25.660
coming in from him. Spirit trying to react the cold embrace is not gonna be a

10:09:25.660 --> 10:09:29.540
save this game so many so much magic damage they have that goes through

10:09:29.540 --> 10:09:33.780
and in fact it's gonna set up for some of these arrows potentially too.

10:09:33.780 --> 10:09:36.000
Notice, you didn't get the RNG.

10:09:36.000 --> 10:09:37.000
Well, I say RNG.

10:09:37.000 --> 10:09:39.000
You're going to find the dragon most of the situations anyway.

10:09:39.000 --> 10:09:40.000
He's got the drums.

10:09:40.000 --> 10:09:41.000
He's got the shard.

10:09:41.000 --> 10:09:44.280
He's got this built-in cleave-down to increase the farm, and it's really nice to have this

10:09:44.280 --> 10:09:48.080
fireball as well, too, versus the refraction, and to just farm from the side.

10:09:48.080 --> 10:09:50.000
You don't have to show yourself in these lanes.

10:09:50.000 --> 10:09:53.440
So vision is the advantage at the moment here.

10:09:53.440 --> 10:09:56.200
I mean, your Toro, how involved does he want to be now?

10:09:56.200 --> 10:09:57.200
He has to be.

10:09:57.200 --> 10:09:58.200
He has to be online.

10:09:58.200 --> 10:09:59.520
We're going to see him fight.

10:09:59.520 --> 10:10:00.520
Yep.

10:10:00.520 --> 10:10:01.520
Has to be involved.

10:10:01.520 --> 10:10:03.520
I don't think they want to keep falling behind here at this point.

10:10:03.520 --> 10:10:05.520
He is the strongest hero for his team on the map.

10:10:06.720 --> 10:10:10.320
And he does have ways to bail himself out, with the blink dagger now, with the refraction.

10:10:10.320 --> 10:10:13.820
Even if he gets caught by the doom initially, he can refract and blink down beforehand.

10:10:14.520 --> 10:10:16.520
And they've got Stan Pete to bail for now, too.

10:10:18.320 --> 10:10:21.120
Right now, Vision looking to be in a very comfortable spot in this game.

10:10:21.120 --> 10:10:22.320
And there's the panel top two.

10:10:22.320 --> 10:10:25.020
They have a great scaling draft this time around as well.

10:10:25.320 --> 10:10:27.020
Yeah, I mean, you can just look at the network, right?

10:10:27.020 --> 10:10:31.020
All three of their cores absolutely on track to get that scaling going.

10:10:31.020 --> 10:10:33.020
They're very happy with this opening.

10:10:33.020 --> 10:10:34.640
Looking for the play, no one.

10:10:34.640 --> 10:10:39.320
Looking for Wunderdust, still able to break the distance over the wards, not me with the borough strike plink.

10:10:40.100 --> 10:10:41.100
Shot away.

10:10:41.980 --> 10:10:43.480
All alone to actually lift.

10:10:43.480 --> 10:10:47.240
They don't want to chase any further here for the Clockwork, happy just pushing them off the tower.

10:10:47.240 --> 10:10:52.320
With the rotation actually from Jokalis and Seatanic also joining here for this push.

10:10:52.320 --> 10:10:53.920
They should be able to bring this tier one down.

10:10:53.920 --> 10:10:55.120
Now Radiation's down to none.

10:10:55.120 --> 10:10:56.220
Oh, I'm trying to burn mana.

10:10:56.220 --> 10:11:01.020
They're going to see if they can try and find one of these supports, but Root able to fly over to the low ground.

10:11:01.020 --> 10:11:04.620
TP attempt here from not me will not succeed, Satanic!

10:11:05.020 --> 10:11:08.720
As the damage to finish him off, and I seep this tier one tower push going.

10:11:08.720 --> 10:11:10.720
I'm sure Satanic's sitting there like, you know what?

10:11:10.720 --> 10:11:12.820
You can burn my mana, but I've got a caudal.

10:11:12.820 --> 10:11:15.520
So whatever, immediately comes right back afterwards.

10:11:16.020 --> 10:11:17.520
They can get this pressure going.

10:11:18.920 --> 10:11:22.220
Map feels like it's going to be a bit dangerous here for Spirit in these next few moments.

10:11:22.220 --> 10:11:25.720
A lot easier ways that I'm seeing Fishin able to set up these aggressive plays.

10:11:25.720 --> 10:11:29.120
While for the side of Spirit, I'm hot around Laurel, and as you've seen it,

10:11:29.120 --> 10:11:33.120
I don't know how much competitive he really wants to get, because you can't just die and he stuns super easy.

10:11:34.120 --> 10:11:40.120
Early days, but yeah, that 4k gold lead does bloom over the heads of Team Spirit.

10:11:41.120 --> 10:11:48.120
And Tora, talking at Worstill on the TA, he is going to have to do quite a lot this game.

10:11:50.120 --> 10:11:54.120
But she just noticed, well, of course, if you said her having this great game notice especially,

10:11:54.120 --> 10:11:57.380
especially I think this is the key one for me to look at because he was

10:11:57.380 --> 10:12:00.760
counterpicked in the lane and the fact that he's the top net worth for the team

10:12:00.760 --> 10:12:04.400
is a pretty big deal. This boom is going to be very relevant in the game and how

10:12:04.400 --> 10:12:08.960
tanky he can be in the front line too. He's able to get to the Sheeva's, I don't

10:12:08.960 --> 10:12:12.400
know if they're gonna have some limited damage for him.

10:12:12.400 --> 10:12:15.920
I think so much of Toro is going to be able to do and will of course have to

10:12:15.920 --> 10:12:20.200
get this BKB first before he gets the big damage items online. Absolutely

10:12:20.200 --> 10:12:22.960
needed this game versus the same thing. If he doesn't go pretty much, yeah, this

10:12:22.960 --> 10:12:27.960
Because BKB is the next item, he won't just continue to die every second time.

10:12:27.960 --> 10:12:32.560
Vision, having a very nice mix damage, multiple keep different cores that are having this

10:12:32.560 --> 10:12:35.560
good game.

10:12:35.560 --> 10:12:36.560
Panic Armlet, it's done.

10:12:36.560 --> 10:12:42.440
Starting to invade the Triangles while now preventing that extra farm from collapsing.

10:12:42.440 --> 10:12:45.760
Collapsed, being a bit quiet this game, he has a sent arm so it is much more of

10:12:45.760 --> 10:12:47.360
that farmy hero we know.

10:12:47.360 --> 10:12:50.400
Gonna go down that heart build.

10:12:50.400 --> 10:12:57.400
It does mean that the lightsaber is going to have a very nice target to feast off on.

10:12:57.400 --> 10:13:01.960
Valar is still going to be a bit of time until we see him be able to really make the moves

10:13:01.960 --> 10:13:02.960
in these teamfights.

10:13:02.960 --> 10:13:06.600
He's got a lot of catching up to do, out of their protective, right?

10:13:06.600 --> 10:13:07.600
That's the biggest thing.

10:13:07.600 --> 10:13:10.400
Can't just die to the burst damage that comes out with just one of these stuns

10:13:10.400 --> 10:13:13.400
from the side of vision.

10:13:13.400 --> 10:13:14.400
That's the agonims.

10:13:14.400 --> 10:13:17.920
It's the agonims already finished for no one.

10:13:17.920 --> 10:13:18.920
Dangerous moments for Spirit.

10:13:18.920 --> 10:13:21.520
Yeah, the team fight's pretty terrifying around this tanking.

10:13:22.400 --> 10:13:23.180
Not me.

10:13:23.180 --> 10:13:25.580
They're just gonna end up walking into an epicenter.

10:13:26.460 --> 10:13:29.680
Hook shot away, but, Satanic, looks to be there to finish him off.

10:13:29.680 --> 10:13:30.960
Maybe this is how people save them.

10:13:30.960 --> 10:13:34.920
Notice he's gonna try and jump forward with the fire laid down on the ground.

10:13:34.920 --> 10:13:36.120
Not me, we'll burn.

10:13:36.120 --> 10:13:38.260
You can see the posturing from Spirit, though.

10:13:38.260 --> 10:13:40.380
As soon as they see the tanking, we can't really fight.

10:13:40.380 --> 10:13:43.320
Epi was used now, they're seeing. Notice triple a bit deep.

10:13:43.320 --> 10:13:44.720
Look at me trying to punish him.

10:13:44.720 --> 10:13:45.220
Huh?

10:13:46.060 --> 10:13:46.820
I'm able to.

10:13:46.820 --> 10:13:48.220
I'm trying to see if he can get some sort of catch-up.

10:13:48.220 --> 10:13:51.900
And thinking about going for Notes, tower rune.

10:13:52.900 --> 10:13:54.220
So people will take it away.

10:13:54.220 --> 10:13:57.420
They won't want to do that now with the amplified damage rune on the doom.

10:13:57.940 --> 10:14:00.060
Anything Notes might be ready to just jump back in on them.

10:14:00.060 --> 10:14:01.980
He's got the blink up, dooms up the ready.

10:14:02.220 --> 10:14:03.740
Play it safe first, stick to the triangle.

10:14:03.740 --> 10:14:05.540
They don't want to force anything too much, AirVision.

10:14:05.540 --> 10:14:07.900
They know that they're starting to build

10:14:07.900 --> 10:14:10.860
his comfortable lead across the board on all three calls.

10:14:10.860 --> 10:14:12.860
And getting all three towers very early too.

10:14:12.860 --> 10:14:13.820
Which is all important.

10:14:13.820 --> 10:14:16.020
You're playing versus a Tia, you're able to limit the map,

10:14:16.020 --> 10:14:17.900
constrict where she can farm.

10:14:17.900 --> 10:14:21.980
and take away her ancients as well too. So Tannick, he just keeps walking into the triangle,

10:14:21.980 --> 10:14:24.780
stealing that farm, not letting the TI get to that area as well.

10:14:24.780 --> 10:14:27.180
Who could do anything about it? Not much.

10:14:27.180 --> 10:14:32.540
Only Yatora really can threaten this life stealer. The rest of Spirit, they just have to sort of watch

10:14:32.540 --> 10:14:36.940
whilst he gets this free farm, Tannick. So for Spirit, I guess the timing is going to be that

10:14:36.940 --> 10:14:41.340
BKB from Yatora and potentially just looking for that force fight, or maybe forcing an objective

10:14:41.340 --> 10:14:45.260
because they do take these objectives very fast, either that Tormentor or the Roche.

10:14:45.260 --> 10:14:47.020
Roche of course more important for these teams.

10:14:47.900 --> 10:14:53.500
Flaps now, does have heart, very tanky, but as I said, there is percent damage in this

10:14:53.500 --> 10:14:54.500
game.

10:14:54.500 --> 10:14:57.540
The infertile blade is going to be very effective versus that heart, same thing for the lifestealer

10:14:57.540 --> 10:14:58.540
with the beast.

10:14:58.540 --> 10:15:04.420
And again, they'll get tried, so well, not me, tries to hook shot away, but does not

10:15:04.420 --> 10:15:05.920
make a successful connection.

10:15:05.920 --> 10:15:10.540
He'll go for the TP out, they're ready to put a stop to that, not me, dead again.

10:15:10.540 --> 10:15:13.940
Same time, no one, I'm pretty deep for this, the draw is going to lift the

10:15:13.940 --> 10:15:16.740
fight back, we'll kill the ward off.

10:15:16.740 --> 10:15:20.660
massive kill, Laurel. Finally able to find him.

10:15:20.660 --> 10:15:27.540
Out of sight, Toro. Joining in, they're looking to pressure Satanic a bit here. Sorry, I just

10:15:27.540 --> 10:15:31.260
want to start again. He's going to be in fast if he builds pressure. Got the moonlight

10:15:31.260 --> 10:15:35.900
as well to be able to reset. He'll be fine. No, it won't. He has to get caught. It's

10:15:35.900 --> 10:15:39.140
a massive killer able to fight Nantun there to slow down some of that momentum that

10:15:39.140 --> 10:15:42.860
vision is building. Still in a very comfortable spot though, we're seeing that storm

10:15:42.860 --> 10:15:53.060
trouble. It's just how do you catch back up as a storm because it seems like that's

10:15:53.060 --> 10:15:55.700
something that so many teams have struggled with when they end up in this

10:15:55.700 --> 10:16:01.980
position with their storm and bomb at the core network. Good question Owen. Not the shield rune,

10:16:01.980 --> 10:16:07.980
this could protect it for that next up coming fight, that little extra barrier vision though.

10:16:07.980 --> 10:16:11.280
Blink on notice, BKB as well.

10:16:11.280 --> 10:16:13.980
We might be ready to make an aggressive jump here.

10:16:13.980 --> 10:16:16.380
Notice is having an insane game, Owen.

10:16:16.380 --> 10:16:18.580
Top two net worth still at this point.

10:16:22.580 --> 10:16:24.080
They're gonna go for it. Straight in.

10:16:24.080 --> 10:16:26.580
Forestrike into the arrow is all that's needed.

10:16:26.580 --> 10:16:29.380
Slau continues to suffer.

10:16:29.380 --> 10:16:32.380
Not means gonna get Dove here up to the tier three by Static.

10:16:32.380 --> 10:16:34.580
He'll tick out to the burn damage.

10:16:34.580 --> 10:16:38.100
Seeing the struggles here for Spirit, they're starting to get blink daggers.

10:16:38.100 --> 10:16:42.500
Okay, Collapse does have it picked up here, but limited ways for them to make these moves,

10:16:42.500 --> 10:16:46.580
limited ways for them to respond, BKB is done for Yotaro, when they've got the five

10:16:46.580 --> 10:16:49.940
end up, you could look to see them go for this type of fight again.

10:16:49.940 --> 10:16:52.740
The team fight advantage from Vision is very apparent.

10:16:52.740 --> 10:16:55.300
There's so many ways to focus Yotaro right.

10:16:55.300 --> 10:16:59.940
When all of this network for Team Spirit is kind of being focused on their TA,

10:17:00.900 --> 10:17:03.540
you know, notice is going to be going for every single time in these fights.

10:17:03.540 --> 10:17:12.540
If they can just take Yatora out of the fights, it's going to be quite some time until Team Spirit have some sort of team fight to match that of Team Vision in these teams.

10:17:12.540 --> 10:17:16.540
And Yatora, talking about him, they make this go on in here.

10:17:16.540 --> 10:17:23.540
They get the jump, and with that, the stampede is there! He's got the PKB, so we'll be able to get away from the notice.

10:17:23.540 --> 10:17:26.540
He's going to try to change, but after the tier 2s, a bit too much.

10:17:26.540 --> 10:17:30.540
The notice will have to back off, he's peeking, he comes to an end, he'll get punished.

10:17:30.540 --> 10:17:38.540
Spirit, no! They have to be there to allow Yatora to get out and to have a chance of finding a big kill in return, and they get it.

10:17:38.540 --> 10:17:44.540
And that's the biggest move so far here for Spirit. That's two massive ultimates used. Yatora lives. They give force something here.

10:17:44.540 --> 10:17:50.540
Do they have the opportunity to go through this rush? We'll see. The positioning isn't great for them because it is on the top side right now.

10:17:50.540 --> 10:17:54.540
So it does feel like Vision will have some time to be able to react to this, giving it ultis back up.

10:17:54.540 --> 10:17:59.540
Because this is of course one of the classic counters to the boom right. If you have that stampede at the red end, one of the best.

10:17:59.540 --> 10:18:03.980
one of the best. Yatsura is going to be able to run because it talks in the draft right about the lack of control.

10:18:03.980 --> 10:18:09.440
It's pretty much the Sanky. If you're not hitting the Boris Strike into the arrow, you're going to be able to run with the Stampede.

10:18:12.780 --> 10:18:17.980
I'll go for Toro Mentor. I'll go for the easier one since it's in a more favorable position for the Mentor moments.

10:18:19.740 --> 10:18:21.500
Yatsura level 19.

10:18:21.500 --> 10:18:28.460
Keeping it a decent pace, but Satanic is hot behind his trail. And the end of his asian is the same as last time from the Life Stealer.

10:18:28.460 --> 10:18:31.900
He can just go for Manton, go for AC, so Slaver's to that by Disarbor.

10:18:31.900 --> 10:18:33.820
It's a natural build up for Sotanik.

10:18:33.820 --> 10:18:35.580
He is very far forward right now.

10:18:35.580 --> 10:18:37.020
He might have looked to set up for him.

10:18:37.020 --> 10:18:43.420
I mean obviously he feels that he has ways out of this with rage, infest, immediate rage there as Collap tries to get the jump in on him.

10:18:43.420 --> 10:18:45.660
And Saka hit his Watt too, so have a rage and go out.

10:18:45.660 --> 10:18:46.620
He needs to be fine.

10:18:46.620 --> 10:18:48.140
Yes, Rage at the mug going with the infest.

10:18:48.140 --> 10:18:49.260
He'll zoom out of there.

10:18:49.260 --> 10:18:50.060
Collap chases.

10:18:50.060 --> 10:18:54.140
He's thinking about chasing, but it's such a hard kill to go for.

10:18:54.140 --> 10:18:57.500
Especially when he's on the retreat, there's going to be time for backup to be around.

10:18:57.500 --> 10:18:59.500
You just cannot commit for this kill.

10:19:00.080 --> 10:19:02.320
I'm gonna be coming back up in 20 seconds.

10:19:02.320 --> 10:19:04.800
Epi is back and at the ready here for no one.

10:19:05.300 --> 10:19:07.300
Gonna look for a fight again, no one.

10:19:07.300 --> 10:19:08.300
Not me.

10:19:08.740 --> 10:19:09.740
How's this?

10:19:09.740 --> 10:19:11.740
I'm gonna try and make quick one, cut the clock.

10:19:11.740 --> 10:19:12.740
Nice block.

10:19:14.540 --> 10:19:15.740
Back to business.

10:19:15.740 --> 10:19:17.740
Don't find the kill-in for the TA earlier,

10:19:17.740 --> 10:19:20.740
but still looking to get very aggressive here with these timings.

10:19:27.500 --> 10:19:29.500
It's back on.

10:19:29.500 --> 10:19:30.840
No, it's just out of the doom.

10:19:30.840 --> 10:19:32.840
Sheer 2 default, they're ready for no one.

10:19:32.840 --> 10:19:35.480
And it gave them to squawk up and clean that one out.

10:19:35.480 --> 10:19:38.080
Gonna have the plate belt or the hyperstone for the next fight.

10:19:38.080 --> 10:19:40.080
Oh, they set up on top, Faro.

10:19:40.080 --> 10:19:42.580
They can't go for some panic here.

10:19:42.580 --> 10:19:44.580
Such a tricky kill to execute.

10:19:44.580 --> 10:19:47.080
For the majority of this game, it's gonna be that case.

10:19:47.080 --> 10:19:51.080
Until they do have a hard, either a silence or a hard stun onto him.

10:19:51.080 --> 10:19:55.080
The hex, it's gonna be difficult for them to bring down this lifestealer in most situations.

10:19:55.080 --> 10:20:02.240
Almost just requires Saitanic to over-commit and dive a bit too deep, but those sort of mistakes he doesn't really make

10:20:03.800 --> 10:20:06.880
Notice, plate mount not picked up for him, so a lot safer

10:20:09.720 --> 10:20:11.920
We'll just lead at that 5 to 6k

10:20:13.960 --> 10:20:15.960
Clear it

10:20:16.120 --> 10:20:18.120
We're in the area around this roche

10:20:19.120 --> 10:20:22.960
Oh, well, gonna start committing for that MKB, maybe, so that radiance

10:20:25.080 --> 10:20:31.840
That is one of the things that might be achievable even when they're behind right around your

10:20:31.840 --> 10:20:36.360
Tauros TA they could try and find an option to sneak into the Rose Shrine and take it

10:20:36.360 --> 10:20:37.360
down.

10:20:37.360 --> 10:20:38.360
Absolutely.

10:20:38.360 --> 10:20:42.000
They have good ways to bail heroes out you know if these connections that aren't

10:20:42.000 --> 10:20:46.000
perfect inside of this is that stand to be able to do it.

10:20:46.000 --> 10:20:47.000
Could be just key.

10:20:47.000 --> 10:20:53.720
How's the Sheva's looking from the boom getting pretty close to having that one

10:20:53.720 --> 10:20:54.720
finished as well.

10:20:54.720 --> 10:20:58.800
he doubles shippers again since both this mid and this off later are so good at having it for the side of vision

10:20:59.520 --> 10:21:02.440
I mean they know as well as long as they can keep their armor up and

10:21:03.280 --> 10:21:06.240
Eliminate the threat of Yatoro kind of two shot three shotting them

10:21:06.320 --> 10:21:09.840
They're gonna fare pretty well in the fights for the majority of this game

10:21:10.400 --> 10:21:15.800
Laurel is making a decent recovery though, Owen. I've seen a lot of these other storms is completely faltered at this point

10:21:15.800 --> 10:21:21.880
He's getting close to having the BKB himself only a couple thousand behind that sinking so his scaling is continuing

10:21:21.880 --> 10:21:24.880
And in these teamfights, what's Lyle's job going to sort of be here?

10:21:24.880 --> 10:21:28.080
Who's he looking for to commit with under the cover of the BKB

10:21:28.080 --> 10:21:30.280
and just try and disrupt the teamfight playoff?

10:21:30.280 --> 10:21:33.280
I want to say it's the Coddle that he wants to jump, but it's not easy actually.

10:21:33.280 --> 10:21:35.380
I'm looking at the itemization here from 9th class.

10:21:35.380 --> 10:21:37.880
He's been quietly farming on the side here.

10:21:37.880 --> 10:21:39.180
He is not an easy grab.

10:21:39.180 --> 10:21:40.980
Ghostseptor, Force, Holy Locket.

10:21:40.980 --> 10:21:43.280
It's going to be difficult for Laurel to focus fire that one.

10:21:43.280 --> 10:21:44.380
So we'll have to see.

10:21:44.380 --> 10:21:46.280
I mean, Laurel might play more of a defensive route

10:21:46.280 --> 10:21:49.080
where he just plays where, wait for vision to over commit

10:21:49.080 --> 10:21:50.580
and then you're just defending your Toro.

10:21:50.580 --> 10:21:51.680
I want to see what he does there.

10:21:54.980 --> 10:22:02.980
Yatora, the farm continues to fly in very close to having a full MKB on top of the BKB, so he's going to hit hard!

10:22:02.980 --> 10:22:03.780
Yatora.

10:22:03.780 --> 10:22:08.580
He is, but it is a lot of pressure on him and it's versus that too.

10:22:08.580 --> 10:22:10.980
So in some of these fights, he can't just get erased.

10:22:10.980 --> 10:22:14.180
He's not super careful, and if they don't just use everything to bail them out.

10:22:14.180 --> 10:22:21.140
pretty clear advantage and as we were mentioning earlier they're scaling it is very strong this game

10:22:24.340 --> 10:22:29.540
Alamps trying to do his best to keep up with the cause he's farming well he's not too far behind and

10:22:30.420 --> 10:22:36.100
he is going to be very very tanky and can obviously go for this agonist pick up just to try and put

10:22:36.100 --> 10:22:42.340
everything into keeping yatora alive throughout these team fights and ideally allowing yatora to

10:22:42.340 --> 10:22:47.840
Go for the more aggressive items after MKB and indeed trying to get this dragon lance upgraded next into the Hydra's breath

10:22:47.840 --> 10:22:49.840
They need Jatorra to do all of the damage

10:22:53.600 --> 10:22:58.760
It's interesting to pick up because I think what it is is he's trying to save the slot as well to right because he doesn't want pipe

10:22:59.360 --> 10:23:02.680
Because he just wants all that hard damage versus this triple taking part

10:23:02.680 --> 10:23:06.400
He needs to deal the majority of it for his team. Yeah, I mean I can get it

10:23:06.400 --> 10:23:09.920
It's just gonna be much more value right in terms of just having damage on the TA

10:23:09.920 --> 10:23:14.840
You could pretty much rely on Rue and not me to pick up the four staffs. They're both queuing them up

10:23:14.840 --> 10:23:17.760
So you're gonna have that positioning coming in from your support

10:23:17.760 --> 10:23:21.760
She can trust in them and as the carry you can afford to go all in on the offensive build

10:23:22.160 --> 10:23:24.700
Night class they set up for the kill here not me

10:23:25.520 --> 10:23:27.520
Let's get right on top of him

10:23:27.680 --> 10:23:31.780
Go step is there, but the nice hits on the side. I mean he's making work for it

10:23:32.360 --> 10:23:35.580
Backups coming in and notice he's ready to jump over to not me

10:23:35.580 --> 10:23:38.420
I think that class is gonna be a massive issue this game

10:23:38.420 --> 10:23:44.180
He's super far and jumping him and getting him in the back lines. It just seems very difficult for this team

10:23:44.820 --> 10:23:49.740
He's able to get to the point where he has a hex to that's where Laurel and Gatoro are in jeopardy

10:23:49.740 --> 10:23:54.500
Because we said the catch provision a little lacking. I mean that's a hex. Yeah, that's and he's well on the way

10:23:54.500 --> 10:23:58.260
He's very he's got plenty of undergoal ready to start building towards that hex

10:23:59.060 --> 10:24:02.540
That pickups gonna be a nightmare for spirit to deal with yeah

10:24:02.540 --> 10:24:05.300
I'm feeling some scare for spirit in these next five ten minutes or so

10:24:05.300 --> 10:24:10.260
Let's see what they can't get around a Toro with this empty timing. BKB also finished for Laurel

10:24:15.580 --> 10:24:17.580
Sometimes they found a pick off

10:24:19.580 --> 10:24:22.340
The one he's thinking about making a jump

10:24:22.340 --> 10:24:25.020
I mean him and no just could take someone out of the fight pretty easily

10:24:25.380 --> 10:24:29.420
Hard to do though if they don't make the jump on to collapse when the Stampede's up as we've seen before

10:24:29.420 --> 10:24:33.980
They also don't want to mess up the move here because if they do mess up a big team fight ultimate

10:24:33.980 --> 10:24:43.980
It could just be Roshan's spirit, so they do have to be very connected when they do get that connection from no one to have the arrow follow-up and without the maraud, I don't think I'll go for it.

10:24:47.980 --> 10:24:49.980
Very tense moments here in this game.

10:24:49.980 --> 10:24:58.780
I feel like the maximum deaths you can really have in this game is a 2 max 3 because otherwise

10:24:58.780 --> 10:25:02.580
this life tier is just going to be able to catch up, outpace, and just have that nice

10:25:02.580 --> 10:25:03.580
matchup or similar.

10:25:03.580 --> 10:25:04.780
They have all this gap closed.

10:25:04.780 --> 10:25:06.580
Vision, AC is done.

10:25:06.580 --> 10:25:10.780
Extra little small armor items also for no one.

10:25:10.780 --> 10:25:16.660
How's my class' attacks getting closer and closer?

10:25:16.660 --> 10:25:20.820
Gatoro, how's he getting toward that axe?

10:25:20.820 --> 10:25:22.820
He's getting close.

10:25:22.820 --> 10:25:24.660
All of our protecting Gatoro.

10:25:24.660 --> 10:25:27.580
Yeah, collapse once he has that.

10:25:27.580 --> 10:25:30.140
As long as he's not getting jumped, and honestly for the most part he probably won't

10:25:30.140 --> 10:25:31.540
be unless they sort of...

10:25:31.540 --> 10:25:36.300
Because they don't really have easy ways to find and sort of control the sense or

10:25:36.300 --> 10:25:37.300
right at the start of a teamfight.

10:25:37.300 --> 10:25:40.220
Collapse, he's always going to be able to press Stampede in these teamfights.

10:25:40.220 --> 10:25:44.720
He could die to the overall AoE damage that comes in and sometimes have a very big hit,

10:25:44.720 --> 10:25:48.920
but he is very tanky currently at this point, so it might be difficult for them to spring

10:25:48.920 --> 10:25:53.420
right through it, but they do have percent damage on it, so that infertably, it'll build

10:25:53.420 --> 10:25:54.420
up very quickly.

10:25:54.420 --> 10:25:57.260
I mean maybe that's the thing, is that actually who notices is going to be looking for the

10:25:57.260 --> 10:26:00.520
most in these fights since this Doom, are you trying to jump the center to stop those

10:26:00.520 --> 10:26:02.520
sort of saves coming in with the Edge Stampede?

10:26:02.520 --> 10:26:05.620
I think it'll save the Doom probably for the one you're recording, but just hitting

10:26:05.620 --> 10:26:07.120
the other one is going to be very successful.

10:26:07.120 --> 10:26:08.840
Rosh? It's dropping.

10:26:08.840 --> 10:26:11.760
I mean, they used the stampede aggressively.

10:26:11.760 --> 10:26:14.760
Hook shot him from not me.

10:26:14.760 --> 10:26:16.640
So indeed, they'll be able to finish that Rosh.

10:26:16.640 --> 10:26:18.840
Team Spirit not able to make any sort of jump in to the pit.

10:26:18.840 --> 10:26:21.560
Not me gets caught outside if it's a vision.

10:26:21.560 --> 10:26:22.240
They'll get a kill.

10:26:22.240 --> 10:26:22.920
They'll get the Rosh.

10:26:22.920 --> 10:26:25.000
They'll put the Aegis ready to play for the next five

10:26:25.000 --> 10:26:26.080
minutes on Satanic.

10:26:26.080 --> 10:26:28.080
And you deny the Rosh away from a TA,

10:26:28.080 --> 10:26:30.400
a hero that wants to play with that Aegis advantage

10:26:30.400 --> 10:26:32.680
in this type of matchup.

10:26:32.680 --> 10:26:34.480
Very heads up move from vision.

10:26:34.480 --> 10:26:37.080
They're running straight towards the tour.

10:26:37.080 --> 10:26:42.200
way. This feels like a hard one for your Toro to carry. It's not the similar one

10:26:42.200 --> 10:26:45.560
where he's just terribly this super late game carry that has the edge over the

10:26:45.560 --> 10:26:49.120
opposing carry. The life stealer matchup when he's uneven footed. It's not. It's

10:26:49.120 --> 10:26:51.840
very good. You want to be quite ahead on the TA when you're playing in this

10:26:51.840 --> 10:26:57.160
matchup. Very, very difficult times here for your Toro. Yeah. Satanic has

10:26:57.160 --> 10:27:01.120
fully caught up. Not dying at all in this game. Having that lame freedom as

10:27:01.120 --> 10:27:04.160
Well, jump forward, notice.

10:27:05.840 --> 10:27:08.040
Roof. It's not going to be getting away from this.

10:27:08.040 --> 10:27:09.240
Very good.

10:27:10.640 --> 10:27:13.920
Vision. Super easy for them to make these pick offs.

10:27:14.920 --> 10:27:16.680
Both supports gone.

10:27:17.880 --> 10:27:20.640
Nobody can really come anywhere close to vision right now.

10:27:20.760 --> 10:27:24.000
This might be the roughest game we've seen from the clockwork, from that beat.

10:27:24.000 --> 10:27:27.080
He's got 10 deaths, but it's my connection with the Syrah.

10:27:27.080 --> 10:27:29.080
He's going to try and jump in. No one was thinking about going back in

10:27:29.080 --> 10:27:31.080
on this with the epicent, so he won't for now.

10:27:31.120 --> 10:27:32.600
to last backs off of the axe.

10:27:34.200 --> 10:27:36.280
Oh, that's forcing the lane is as well.

10:27:36.760 --> 10:27:38.560
They've got so much time to apply this pressure here,

10:27:38.560 --> 10:27:40.040
vision with the three minutes of ages.

10:27:40.720 --> 10:27:43.400
Onto the tier three top, look at the fortification out of spirit.

10:27:44.680 --> 10:27:47.840
9th class, the hex, it's 80 pulled away.

10:27:48.320 --> 10:27:49.240
I don't know if they're gonna...

10:27:49.240 --> 10:27:51.880
I mean, they do, they see the items that he has, so they can't...

10:27:51.880 --> 10:27:53.720
Sure, but it's gonna be brutal.

10:27:53.720 --> 10:27:55.800
What do you do against this hex on the call?

10:27:55.800 --> 10:27:59.040
9th class, he's always gonna find a way to catch it.

10:27:59.040 --> 10:28:06.140
My people just pop some of these heroes before they get the vkb off potentially no one will be able to find an amp damage as well

10:28:06.540 --> 10:28:08.540
She visits a power up in this form

10:28:08.660 --> 10:28:13.340
They're gonna try and do something to it's into the ages. It's a risk, but they feel desperate right now

10:28:13.340 --> 10:28:15.020
It's got the axe from collapse

10:28:15.020 --> 10:28:20.540
So eyes on him to get that workhorse onto yatoro if he does get focused on two at the same time team visions

10:28:20.540 --> 10:28:22.460
They've got the moonlight up

10:28:22.460 --> 10:28:24.460
Sneaking around the map themselves

10:28:24.460 --> 10:28:26.760
Coming up to the high ground here, Static.

10:28:26.760 --> 10:28:34.460
Well sure, so Spirit have a decent amount of information, but can they actually fight this despite the gold deficit that they're out?

10:28:34.460 --> 10:28:36.460
Can they access the backlight? They did see Nightmast.

10:28:36.460 --> 10:28:37.460
They get light on on him.

10:28:37.460 --> 10:28:39.460
Can they try to get the jump and throw it away? They look to wall.

10:28:39.460 --> 10:28:42.460
Nightmast, see if they can take that. The cars comes out, looking the three of them down.

10:28:42.460 --> 10:28:43.460
Now they get the BKB off.

10:28:43.460 --> 10:28:45.460
Nightmast, he's healed up by the infest.

10:28:45.460 --> 10:28:47.460
Static keeps the call alive.

10:28:47.460 --> 10:28:50.460
Vision, they won't lose anyone to that attempt there from Spirit.

10:28:50.460 --> 10:28:52.460
Now Static, he's on your Toro.

10:28:52.460 --> 10:28:55.900
Toro under there. He sort of helped to get him out of the stamp. He's already been used.

10:28:56.400 --> 10:29:01.060
Prime rum, but the BKB is about to come to an end. They've got a force here for Vru to try and save Yotaro.

10:29:01.060 --> 10:29:05.100
Static's going to still chase on Noa. He catches up here in the river with T'Kales.

10:29:05.100 --> 10:29:09.560
The workhorse is there. Collapsed under the team too, but Static is going to dive on Slaude.

10:29:09.560 --> 10:29:14.440
Collapsed will go for the TPL. Gets out just in time before Noa just comes in with the tendrils.

10:29:14.440 --> 10:29:18.760
They try for a desperate move. They find the back line, but there's so much healing.

10:29:18.760 --> 10:29:23.760
gets the infest off onto him, they get the extra bailout as well too when he gets the holy locket.

10:29:23.760 --> 10:29:29.260
Look at that heel. I mean it's one of those situations right where you want to kill the cockle

10:29:29.260 --> 10:29:34.260
but at the same time it's just so, so hard to take nine claws out at the start of the fight

10:29:34.260 --> 10:29:35.760
even if you get in the jump on him.

10:29:37.260 --> 10:29:39.760
DKB was used there from Laurel and Gatoro.

10:29:39.760 --> 10:29:43.260
They don't have it for the defense now, still an A to S on Zatanic onto this high ground.

10:29:43.260 --> 10:29:44.760
And they push him back.

10:29:45.760 --> 10:29:46.760
The tier three is gone.

10:29:48.760 --> 10:29:49.880
She can no purr.

10:29:49.880 --> 10:29:50.380
Lapt.

10:29:50.380 --> 10:29:51.680
Gonna try and see what he can find on the side.

10:29:51.680 --> 10:29:52.960
Because the ball takes on the one satanic.

10:29:52.960 --> 10:29:54.180
The damage coming in for your Toro.

10:29:54.180 --> 10:29:55.560
It's gonna be fine.

10:29:55.560 --> 10:29:56.680
Gets in with the infest.

10:29:56.680 --> 10:29:58.120
They do catch up with the Sun on the way out though.

10:29:58.120 --> 10:29:58.440
That's it.

10:29:58.440 --> 10:29:59.960
Got the once.

10:29:59.960 --> 10:30:00.680
Spirit.

10:30:00.680 --> 10:30:03.440
Can they set up to take him down a second time?

10:30:03.440 --> 10:30:04.400
Hook shots there.

10:30:04.400 --> 10:30:05.200
Into the damage.

10:30:05.200 --> 10:30:06.280
They bring him down low.

10:30:06.280 --> 10:30:08.160
He's gonna put the bat to running away with the ball out.

10:30:08.160 --> 10:30:09.080
But they've got him.

10:30:09.080 --> 10:30:10.640
They take out satanic.

10:30:10.640 --> 10:30:11.400
And they chase for more.

10:30:11.400 --> 10:30:13.440
They need to try and find more from the spirit.

10:30:13.440 --> 10:30:15.400
An opportunity presents itself.

10:30:15.400 --> 10:30:16.800
They cannot let it slip away.

10:30:16.800 --> 10:30:17.720
Zip for for a mile.

10:30:17.720 --> 10:30:18.480
Look at the nine class.

10:30:18.480 --> 10:30:23.480
If it goes, Scepter doesn't matter! Hustov! Forteck! They've got the control! They'll take the cartels down!

10:30:23.980 --> 10:30:30.980
Oh, they punished some of this greed from Satanic. He felt like he was unkillable, but his team started to split away. He didn't have all that backup.

10:30:31.980 --> 10:30:33.980
Great opportunity seized there from Spirit.

10:30:35.480 --> 10:30:38.480
Big defense there. They lose to tier three, but the Barracks...

10:30:39.480 --> 10:30:40.480
They'll be protected.

10:30:40.980 --> 10:30:43.480
Spirit having a chance now to play out onto the map.

10:30:43.480 --> 10:30:48.580
Good window is more 50 seconds almost there without nine class or satanic in play

10:30:49.180 --> 10:30:51.180
Hit the high ground a bit

10:30:51.940 --> 10:30:54.660
Taurus that's it. I mean it's it's hard hard

10:30:55.900 --> 10:30:57.900
See how much very can do

10:30:57.900 --> 10:30:59.260
Mr. Tier 3

10:30:59.260 --> 10:31:01.260
They're able to take the same maybe even more

10:31:01.300 --> 10:31:07.180
That was an insane moment for spirit 2 because now you're seeing your Toro potentially is gonna have that item advantage versus the life

10:31:07.180 --> 10:31:09.180
Seer to build the big beat on him to

10:31:09.180 --> 10:31:14.180
Power dropping. Connection on the side.

10:31:14.180 --> 10:31:17.180
They're gonna be able to catch the Carlos outside of the base.

10:31:17.180 --> 10:31:19.180
Another one here for Spirit.

10:31:19.180 --> 10:31:23.180
Carl is getting the connections here with the Vortex as 6-2 and 4 now.

10:31:23.180 --> 10:31:30.180
Despite the deficit that he's at, I mean, he's still at a point where he's got more farm than no one on the stanking now.

10:31:30.180 --> 10:31:32.180
And he's making more play. They'll get the guy onto your tour.

10:31:32.180 --> 10:31:34.180
Collapse! He's getting with the saves.

10:31:34.180 --> 10:31:38.180
They'll bounce for the Torreirao and we'll be able to take him away from the dude.

10:31:38.180 --> 10:31:41.780
They bought back up to Cowlitz as well to Spirits into the disengaged.

10:31:41.780 --> 10:31:45.280
It's a full retreat. Everybody's getting out alive on Spirit.

10:31:45.280 --> 10:31:48.780
Oh, the spellcasting from Spirit. Absolutely beautiful.

10:31:51.280 --> 10:31:55.280
Winter's cursed at disengaged. They know what primary target number one is.

10:31:55.280 --> 10:31:57.580
It's a Toro. Just make sure that he's protected.

10:31:57.580 --> 10:31:59.580
And he could potentially still do it in this game.

10:32:01.080 --> 10:32:03.780
Swift Link getting pretty close. He's got that money.

10:32:03.780 --> 10:32:07.080
Yep, he's got that 3500 advantage. He's got that Slyther now with his mechanic.

10:32:07.080 --> 10:32:09.080
Do you spend up the Swiftlink or do you hope for bye-bye?

10:32:09.860 --> 10:32:11.060
I think he's buying. I don't think you-

10:32:11.060 --> 10:32:11.560
Alright.

10:32:11.560 --> 10:32:13.260
I don't think this is a game where you can hold that you're gold.

10:32:13.260 --> 10:32:15.180
I think you want to be playing with that advantage

10:32:15.180 --> 10:32:16.680
before it's immediately.

10:32:16.680 --> 10:32:19.380
I mean, I like getting just full trust in collapse

10:32:19.380 --> 10:32:21.060
to be there with these saves.

10:32:21.060 --> 10:32:23.560
Keep Yatora protected at all costs.

10:32:24.180 --> 10:32:26.680
They slowed down quite a lot of that momentum from Vision.

10:32:26.680 --> 10:32:29.880
Even though they were able to deny that Aegis away from the side of the TA,

10:32:29.880 --> 10:32:31.980
they end up denying the Aegis away from Sekandak

10:32:31.980 --> 10:32:33.980
from him getting too much out of it afterwards.

10:32:35.780 --> 10:32:36.280
Spirit.

10:32:36.280 --> 10:32:40.780
Level 25 now has been hit. This 25 talent is pretty busted over too.

10:32:40.780 --> 10:32:44.280
Any game is winnable when you do have this talent this early.

10:32:44.280 --> 10:32:47.280
That melted bash. Quick trips at Tannick on Asim.

10:32:47.280 --> 10:32:51.780
They absolutely can. Suddenly, the rage is not enough to keep you safe.

10:32:51.780 --> 10:32:54.280
And you do not always have to get that quick jump in with the infest.

10:32:54.280 --> 10:32:56.280
If that bit of an interrupt comes in through the bash.

10:32:56.280 --> 10:33:00.280
Marvel conjures Catalyst now for him to his skill, it is easy to be safe.

10:33:00.280 --> 10:33:02.280
Find no one here out in the map.

10:33:02.280 --> 10:33:03.480
Oh, that'll be...

10:33:03.480 --> 10:33:05.280
Here's my back to the mid, but they're gonna see him!

10:33:05.280 --> 10:33:09.280
Not me! Everybody get over the hook, close your down and put the big, big, big try and get away from this with the barrage strike!

10:33:09.280 --> 10:33:11.280
Because, in there, the hold him in position, your tourist!

10:33:11.280 --> 10:33:12.780
Close again, a point, and he'll be able to step in!

10:33:12.780 --> 10:33:13.780
He's got no one!

10:33:13.780 --> 10:33:15.080
Victory, no one down!

10:33:15.080 --> 10:33:21.280
He's gonna get dropped on to the ball skill, I'll take him there, on the tour, he's been surrounded by some kind of evasion, so try and get over the big, big, big!

10:33:21.280 --> 10:33:24.780
Oh, he will follow the vision to take your tourist out this time!

10:33:24.780 --> 10:33:25.480
And the doom?

10:33:25.480 --> 10:33:27.780
He's gonna continue to run, he's gonna take pretty low.

10:33:27.780 --> 10:33:29.780
I think he's dead!

10:33:29.780 --> 10:33:32.180
Oh, the last team gets him!

10:33:32.180 --> 10:33:37.860
notice you had said before do you actually do this I think you actually do

10:33:37.860 --> 10:33:41.700
do the centaur seeing that position there tutorial is very aggressively

10:33:41.700 --> 10:33:45.140
fostered they do the center he can't bail him out but he overextended I mean

10:33:45.140 --> 10:33:48.020
absolutely right you take him away from the fight and suddenly your Torah is

10:33:48.020 --> 10:33:52.980
left vulnerable and again spent up for the swift play it's 70 seconds no

10:33:52.980 --> 10:33:57.260
yet or here for the hold vision they might not have no one but they have

10:33:57.260 --> 10:34:01.040
the damage here with satanic at the front to try and take a lot away

10:34:01.040 --> 10:34:05.160
from spirit they chase so far for that kill they do get punished this time the

10:34:05.160 --> 10:34:10.760
racks that exposed in the mid racks don't for sure tier twos are already

10:34:10.760 --> 10:34:14.520
completely gone to the other lanes are open as well for vision they're gonna

10:34:14.520 --> 10:34:17.320
stick around at least until the TA does start to come back if they have 40

10:34:17.320 --> 10:34:21.260
seconds without these two cores and we get just without Gatoro they have no

10:34:21.260 --> 10:34:26.440
when near enough damage to threaten satanic at all as this life stealer up

10:34:26.440 --> 10:34:29.080
to the top lane

10:34:31.040 --> 10:34:37.680
30 seconds still. Now Yatora, the one back in play is ready to TP over to join the rest of the team.

10:34:37.680 --> 10:34:42.000
Now it's just, he's able to jump, they get the catch on enough, he's in trouble, another fire thrown down on towards him.

10:34:42.000 --> 10:34:48.160
He'll try to get away, Korn and Brace had a force, separated from Satanic, but Satanic, he wants to keep pushing for the kill.

10:34:48.160 --> 10:34:55.600
Samantha tanks on the battery assault, he might like to die it, the damage of the illusions, they'll get him back to the fountain.

10:34:55.600 --> 10:35:00.400
But Vision just pushing Spirit away from the backs, they'll respect the fact that Yatora is coming back into action though.

10:35:00.400 --> 10:35:03.360
they won't overstay their welcome vision now fall back

10:35:06.400 --> 10:35:12.060
Titanic pressing forward here with that life stealer now back in that even net worth has this item as well to coming out for him

10:35:12.520 --> 10:35:16.640
We'll see it again that last take literally the last one and it over kills him by

10:35:17.440 --> 10:35:20.980
Four damage if I'm not mistaken there. So stick for 66 per take

10:35:22.480 --> 10:35:25.760
Vision potentially looking to close it out if they get a big catch here

10:35:25.760 --> 10:35:32.200
I mean, they know very likely right from that last play that buyback is not an option for Yatoro

10:35:32.200 --> 10:35:34.120
And he's still five hundred dollars short of it

10:35:34.120 --> 10:35:38.540
So they they know there's a high likelihood that because he spent up and didn't have the buyback for that defense

10:35:38.540 --> 10:35:43.280
That he's still in this situation where they kill Yatoro the game is gonna be over and we're gonna be going to a game five

10:35:43.280 --> 10:35:45.200
Goro has a link it's to build the block

10:35:45.200 --> 10:35:49.560
Notice them, make a jump, they find Nobby first, same time to Carlos trying to look towards the back like this

10:35:49.560 --> 10:35:51.160
Surrounding it's alright, but there's the save.

10:35:51.160 --> 10:35:53.160
Galax comes in, he's going to get him out of here.

10:35:53.160 --> 10:35:55.560
The Curses will hold back no one to notice.

10:35:55.560 --> 10:35:58.960
They'll take it to a backup to the safe, give the high ground.

10:35:58.960 --> 10:36:02.960
Nice side-blades there, I don't think no one did use the BKD during the War Curse.

10:36:02.960 --> 10:36:05.160
War Curse, and can't that she attacked during it this time?

10:36:05.160 --> 10:36:08.160
It has to just run away, so...

10:36:08.160 --> 10:36:09.760
It's a defensive bailout from Spirit.

10:36:09.760 --> 10:36:12.560
They can't get any type of aggressive potential out of it there.

10:36:12.560 --> 10:36:13.760
And there's still a Duma bill.

10:36:13.760 --> 10:36:16.960
Lotus does have it at the ready.

10:36:16.960 --> 10:36:18.160
Are they trying to strike again?

10:36:18.160 --> 10:36:24.000
I like this for no one to goes for the basher after the sheba's that extra bit of control that could potentially clip the ta

10:36:24.120 --> 10:36:28.440
Or even the centaur right like when he's trying to bail him out if I hit him with a bash he gets lucky

10:36:32.320 --> 10:36:35.320
All eyes on your Toro and Collapse

10:36:36.400 --> 10:36:37.400
Retour of?

10:36:37.400 --> 10:36:41.760
Collapse is gonna go into Grecibel and Otsi. Otsi sets forth to catch him with the Hoosome who'll get the big heavy of Otsi

10:36:41.760 --> 10:36:45.600
She's gonna run. They tried to try to get up to the linkers and then Gordemprez keeps Lalsay

10:36:45.600 --> 10:36:50.760
He'll be fine for now. Static is going to push on the wall, Kitoro, and Kitoro getting forced back to safety.

10:36:50.760 --> 10:36:56.060
He'll be able to get up with a blink, but collapse. He'll suffer for this, ticking down to the doom.

10:36:56.220 --> 10:37:03.840
He's gone for 80, and Static, he knows without the sentor to be around to save anyone, he can get back on the aggression.

10:37:04.440 --> 10:37:08.160
Laurel has no BKV. Sorry, Kitoro has no BKV for 22nd. Oh, forced aggression.

10:37:08.160 --> 10:37:10.160
Head to the ball. Static, he's stepping up.

10:37:10.160 --> 10:37:12.560
No one gives him the first shot to the bottom, but they take it off.

10:37:12.560 --> 10:37:14.560
Got the smoke control on the Yatoro!

10:37:14.560 --> 10:37:18.960
He's got the Flyback Gold available here, we'll use it straight away, Yatoro!

10:37:18.960 --> 10:37:21.760
But Vizion's there taking the sound, one bug on his side of the face.

10:37:21.760 --> 10:37:26.560
No look to say daddy, but he's able to back up, continue the push onto the barracks.

10:37:26.560 --> 10:37:29.560
Spirit the first try and hold here with just the two of them.

10:37:31.160 --> 10:37:31.860
Vizion.

10:37:31.860 --> 10:37:34.560
2v5 with an AP center available.

10:37:34.560 --> 10:37:36.560
They're ready to go for the mega creeps.

10:37:37.160 --> 10:37:38.560
No one, he's ready to go for the kill.

10:37:38.560 --> 10:37:41.360
He's challenging me up the AP center, he's in with the jump, they get the opening on the wall slot.

10:37:41.360 --> 10:37:44.200
They've got the lock down low, the fall!

10:37:44.200 --> 10:37:46.560
He's out of the buyback, they're on to the team

10:37:46.560 --> 10:37:47.960
for us here, Vision.

10:37:47.960 --> 10:37:50.000
Oh, I think we're blessing that game five.

10:37:50.000 --> 10:37:51.600
I think we might be.

10:37:51.600 --> 10:37:53.120
And the team falls are going down,

10:37:53.120 --> 10:37:56.000
DeTorre's gonna try one final stand here on his own,

10:37:56.000 --> 10:37:58.720
but the entirety of his team has gone.

10:37:58.720 --> 10:38:00.840
The four strikes there, catching him off the beat,

10:38:00.840 --> 10:38:03.400
they'll be into the hour, Gigi is called!

10:38:03.400 --> 10:38:06.000
We're going to a game five here

10:38:06.000 --> 10:38:08.400
in this international grand finals,

10:38:08.400 --> 10:38:14.160
There's a team vision coming with some beautiful moves here in this game 4.

10:38:14.160 --> 10:38:17.320
And my goodness, it was just too much for Spirit.

10:38:17.320 --> 10:38:22.320
Spirit, we saw them coming with a pretty good strike back around these saves from Collapse,

10:38:22.320 --> 10:38:24.400
but you saw the adaptation from Vision.

10:38:24.400 --> 10:38:26.840
Suddenly, Collapse is priority in these fights.

10:38:26.840 --> 10:38:28.440
It jumped up 10-fold.

10:38:28.440 --> 10:38:30.840
Get rid of the sento, stop them getting these saves,

10:38:30.840 --> 10:38:33.840
and with that, they're able to take them down and force the game 5-fold.

10:38:33.840 --> 10:38:36.280
They're forcing reactions from Spirit over and over again.

10:38:36.280 --> 10:38:40.200
for spirit. It's just it's too much for them to deal with bailing your Toro out. Even though

10:38:40.200 --> 10:38:44.160
Laurel, we mentioned he was making some of this recovery, but you can see the world of

10:38:44.160 --> 10:38:48.080
difference in comparison of him in the Sanking. No one, he's just a deterrent. He's forcing

10:38:48.080 --> 10:38:52.520
a lot of reactions while the other two cores, their hard carry, noticed what a hell of a

10:38:52.520 --> 10:38:56.000
game from him on this Doom, starting it out with the first blood somehow and then

10:38:56.000 --> 10:38:57.000
ending 9-1-11.

10:38:57.000 --> 10:38:58.000
He played ridiculously.

10:38:58.000 --> 10:38:59.000
Amazing.

10:38:59.000 --> 10:39:02.760
Ridiculous stuff across the board there from Team Vision. We are seeing an absolutely

10:39:02.760 --> 10:39:09.240
beautiful display of Dota here in the Grand Finals and we're getting a game five two to two now between vision and spirit

10:39:10.320 --> 10:39:17.040
You cannot ask for anything more than that a game number five between spirit and vision

10:39:17.040 --> 10:39:23.400
We talked about how evenly matched these two teams were but it felt like so often spirit had the advantage and drop

10:39:23.640 --> 10:39:28.520
Finally that break that elongated break there vision were able to take advantage of it

10:39:28.520 --> 10:39:33.440
They came back and this drop we love we could see it every player was playing something

10:39:33.440 --> 10:39:37.500
They felt comfortable with something that they were able to get ahead with and honestly

10:39:37.500 --> 10:39:42.440
They never really stopped. Yeah, this is this is perfection vision played incredibly the draft

10:39:42.440 --> 10:39:44.440
they fixed the problems like you said and

10:39:44.440 --> 10:39:50.240
This was honestly swung the other way where it never really looked that close spirit had some clutch fights here and there

10:39:50.240 --> 10:39:54.100
But to the entirety of the game pretty much borrowing those one moment where satanic dies

10:39:54.100 --> 10:39:56.100
I think vision were in the driver seat

10:39:56.100 --> 10:40:05.100
And the big difference maker for me in this game was no one playing a lane where he wasn't getting run up consistently by multiple heroes from Team Spirit early on.

10:40:05.100 --> 10:40:11.100
We had nine class honest, Caudal and Decalis and Marana, they were playing around that mid lane, they pressured that power early on,

10:40:11.100 --> 10:40:18.100
kicked Floral out and they always had that kill threat, that kill combo available to them that made that early game so difficult for Team Spirit.

10:40:18.100 --> 10:40:21.100
Yeah, I absolutely agree. And on top of that they had nine class on Caudal.

10:40:21.100 --> 10:40:26.060
I feel like this was the first game that we really got to see nine class show like how good of a player

10:40:26.060 --> 10:40:28.020
He is you have to set up the other game for them

10:40:28.020 --> 10:40:32.320
He set up the stacks and triangle that then enabled the sand king. He got to get to enable the doom

10:40:32.320 --> 10:40:35.020
I mean, I think notice had an amazing showing on this doom

10:40:35.020 --> 10:40:37.340
I feel like in both the games where he had a game

10:40:37.340 --> 10:40:42.140
He has a hero that he can shine on he shows that there is no offline this in the series

10:40:42.140 --> 10:40:44.500
And I don't often get to say that one collapses in the game

10:40:44.500 --> 10:40:48.580
Yeah, it's it's crazy how much he has stepped up and how much all of these young players

10:40:48.580 --> 10:40:52.900
They're just so much playing so much confidence and pizzazz in the hardest and most stressful

10:40:52.900 --> 10:40:54.460
series of their lives.

10:40:54.460 --> 10:40:58.660
It is truly incredible and vision of I don't know if they took that break and they made

10:40:58.660 --> 10:40:59.660
gold of it.

10:40:59.660 --> 10:41:00.660
I think it's very easy to squander that.

10:41:00.660 --> 10:41:02.540
I should talk about things that doesn't matter.

10:41:02.540 --> 10:41:04.620
But clearly they went back and they talked with purpose.

10:41:04.620 --> 10:41:09.460
They spent that time well and they look like a whole new refurbished team.

10:41:09.460 --> 10:41:10.460
They look phenomenal.

10:41:10.460 --> 10:41:13.620
You're bringing up the notice doom here and it shouldn't be any surprise of what

10:41:13.620 --> 10:41:15.100
he's able to do on it.

10:41:15.100 --> 10:41:19.000
He has won now five games at this international with Doom.

10:41:19.000 --> 10:41:23.560
If he gets his hands on it, he is going to be able to take it to the safe lane.

10:41:23.560 --> 10:41:27.760
They're going to be able to take it to the carry here, and that's exactly what Yatora

10:41:27.760 --> 10:41:29.560
felt coming up against the Nerdist Doom.

10:41:29.560 --> 10:41:33.440
Now, when you think about it, a lot of the issues that Team Vision were having earlier

10:41:33.440 --> 10:41:37.920
in the series kind of chalked down to scaling and going to the late game.

10:41:37.920 --> 10:41:40.720
And Doom as a hero naturally solves that.

10:41:40.720 --> 10:41:46.200
Not only is he naturally solving the scaling, but an anti-carry hero vs. Yatoro at TI, it

10:41:46.200 --> 10:41:48.080
makes a lot of sense.

10:41:48.080 --> 10:41:51.960
There was always the failsafe of this doom-dooming, the TA the longer the game went.

10:41:51.960 --> 10:41:56.040
The fights were not easy to take for Team Spirit, and notice to such a standout in the

10:41:56.040 --> 10:42:00.360
Sunspot, we forgot about his doom, because he had so many other heroes who was playing

10:42:00.360 --> 10:42:01.360
the series.

10:42:01.360 --> 10:42:04.520
Yeah, and I feel like when you look at the draft from Vision, they are now on

10:42:04.520 --> 10:42:05.520
the sides of the map.

10:42:05.520 --> 10:42:06.520
They have all the synergies.

10:42:06.520 --> 10:42:07.520
You can see how the heroes come together.

10:42:07.520 --> 10:42:11.560
And I feel like for Spirit, they've been relying on this concept of like, amping up our guy.

10:42:11.560 --> 10:42:16.640
If we have a TA, it's not just TA, it's TA with a bunch of steroids that are making him even stronger.

10:42:16.640 --> 10:42:20.200
And in this game, there just really wasn't much. Like, TA doesn't like to get saved.

10:42:20.200 --> 10:42:22.360
It's not a hero that wants to get frozen by Wyvern.

10:42:22.360 --> 10:42:25.680
It's not a hero that really, like, he wants to get his damage out.

10:42:25.680 --> 10:42:29.080
He wants people to be held in place in front of him to just one-shot them when he clicks them one time.

10:42:29.080 --> 10:42:30.120
And they don't have it this game.

10:42:30.120 --> 10:42:32.760
I could see it pairing well when the Centaur cock came out, right?

10:42:32.760 --> 10:42:37.400
You're able to get a lot of that damage still out whilst not having to take any damage.

10:42:37.400 --> 10:42:43.160
But the downside to that is even the doom is a great carry counter. He's also a really good

10:42:43.160 --> 10:42:48.840
centaur counter. It's okay. Centaur runs in wanting to try and get into a close range for your carry

10:42:48.840 --> 10:42:52.840
to do that damage. Well, you just doom him instead and then what's going to end up happening? That

10:42:52.840 --> 10:42:56.600
carry is going to kind of be left in the middle of where centaur's taking him.

10:42:56.600 --> 10:43:00.360
Yeah. It's a testament how so many matchups and doda are two-sided. Centaur is typically

10:43:00.360 --> 10:43:03.400
considered a counter to do because you press stampede and you run away from the doom. But

10:43:03.400 --> 10:43:07.000
then suddenly, what if you do the centaur or what if you abuse infernal blade more

10:43:07.000 --> 10:43:08.560
and you play the fights a little bit longer

10:43:08.560 --> 10:43:11.160
or you have enough disables in the San King and the Marana era

10:43:11.160 --> 10:43:12.500
so that even if they press Stampede,

10:43:12.500 --> 10:43:14.320
well, they're stunned, who cares if they're fast?

10:43:14.320 --> 10:43:16.400
I think these things, they all add up,

10:43:16.400 --> 10:43:17.600
they had great answers.

10:43:17.600 --> 10:43:19.640
And I think if you look at the past games before this,

10:43:19.640 --> 10:43:21.360
Spirit Supports were a huge reason

10:43:21.360 --> 10:43:22.680
why they were winning so easily.

10:43:22.680 --> 10:43:24.200
And this game, they were completely shut down.

10:43:24.200 --> 10:43:25.560
There was minimal impact from Nami.

10:43:25.560 --> 10:43:27.300
He was chain feeding on Clockwork

10:43:27.300 --> 10:43:28.360
because there's no way he can kill,

10:43:28.360 --> 10:43:30.160
there's no way he can really do anything.

10:43:30.160 --> 10:43:32.600
And a lot of that would tie into Laurel

10:43:32.600 --> 10:43:33.720
and the hero he's playing

10:43:33.720 --> 10:43:35.920
and what kind of pressure can come off of the hero.

10:43:35.920 --> 10:43:42.080
And I do think that team vision and puppy cooked about last King that last pick sound King because it's a hero

10:43:42.080 --> 10:43:44.140
We haven't seen no one play this entire tournament

10:43:44.140 --> 10:43:46.120
He used to play it a lot last year

10:43:46.120 --> 10:43:50.160
But again the crickets from this hero and then we see the storm spirit

10:43:50.160 --> 10:43:53.380
This was honestly the perfect pick in this scenario

10:43:53.380 --> 10:43:58.880
They lacked funds they picked the hero that provided that a hero that can shut down storm and make it so that Laurel

10:43:58.880 --> 10:44:02.800
Could not do anything I find it kind of funny because I remember seeing Laurel in the booth

10:44:02.800 --> 10:44:06.040
He's like going through the papers looking at like what does no one play?

10:44:06.120 --> 10:44:08.680
What is it? What can you play here that can mess with my storm game?

10:44:08.680 --> 10:44:13.800
And I'm sure there wasn't any sanking on those papers, you know this this hero hasn't really seen the light of day this tournament

10:44:13.800 --> 10:44:16.960
So really clutch we seem a lot of like first-time appearances for heroes

10:44:16.960 --> 10:44:18.220
I don't know if that was it but

10:44:18.220 --> 10:44:22.360
Sanking hasn't been picked much and it's cool to see these coaches and these teams

10:44:22.360 --> 10:44:27.120
They go deep into their bag and they find the right hero for the right moment rather than just taking to the meta

10:44:27.520 --> 10:44:32.320
There is the inverse of that right? Well, we're seeing the wyvern coming out from spirit

10:44:32.320 --> 10:44:36.800
it is first base banned against him time and time and time again. And if it's not, they were very

10:44:36.800 --> 10:44:41.440
gladly pick it up. But seeing the impact that it had this time around mirror in the earlier game

10:44:41.440 --> 10:44:46.000
and what we could have, you know, we see what they see, but also that it wasn't necessarily

10:44:46.000 --> 10:44:51.280
enough for them to turn the tides. Absolutely. I mean, for me, I look at when he was a hero

10:44:51.280 --> 10:44:56.320
that emerged in the meta specifically to solve loan druid. That's really how it happened. And

10:44:56.320 --> 10:45:00.320
while he did have a lot of good moments in this game without specifically countering anything,

10:45:00.320 --> 10:45:05.600
I think in the clip that we're watching here, he's going to save Laurel from dying a very gruesome death

10:45:05.600 --> 10:45:10.960
and enabling him to, you know, get a little bit of a getaway from no one who's been bullying him

10:45:10.960 --> 10:45:15.360
for the most of this early game. With that being said, I do think Winter Wyvern, the purpose

10:45:15.360 --> 10:45:20.480
did not need to happen in this game because Lone Druid was banned out by Team Vision anyway.

10:45:20.480 --> 10:45:24.000
So if you're trading the Keeper of the Light and giving it to 9-class,

10:45:24.000 --> 10:45:27.840
taking the Wyvern for yourself without the threat of Lone Druid existing anyway,

10:45:27.840 --> 10:45:30.960
What else does it do for you? It just was not enough.

10:45:30.960 --> 10:45:33.120
Yeah. I think it's a great point.

10:45:33.120 --> 10:45:36.120
And I think that's why you want all your heroes to have purpose

10:45:36.120 --> 10:45:38.120
because it affects the heroes later in the draft.

10:45:38.120 --> 10:45:40.560
If you first pick this hero and now they've got a great response with it,

10:45:40.560 --> 10:45:41.560
well, you've had a bad trade.

10:45:41.560 --> 10:45:44.560
And what Aiden said before about how Tia isn't really like Winner Wyvern,

10:45:44.560 --> 10:45:48.040
well, now when it comes later on and you want to pick Tia because it's a good Tia game,

10:45:48.040 --> 10:45:50.080
well, that means it hurts your Winner Wyverns game.

10:45:50.080 --> 10:45:53.520
And so these things tend to build up that if you've had a bad pick,

10:45:53.520 --> 10:45:56.120
it will affect your later picks and either make them worse

10:45:56.120 --> 10:45:59.640
or it will hurt the first heroes game because you're picking something that's good against their heroes,

10:45:59.640 --> 10:46:03.480
not good with yours. You're split between that choice of good versus them or good with us,

10:46:03.480 --> 10:46:06.680
and you want something in between that does both. I think that's what Vision's draft does.

10:46:06.680 --> 10:46:08.920
It's good with their heroes and good against the enemy heroes.

10:46:09.640 --> 10:46:13.320
Yeah, I absolutely agree. I also feel like every time you pick a hero like you guys both

10:46:13.320 --> 10:46:16.440
mentioned, you have to keep in mind that you're also opening a door for your opponent.

10:46:16.440 --> 10:46:21.320
And in this case, Caudal is probably the most comfortable for. It's probably the best hero

10:46:21.320 --> 10:46:27.480
against Winter Wyvern, just as a 4-5 matchup. And you have to consider that. You have to

10:46:27.480 --> 10:46:31.080
get value out of your first pick despite those two things. If you're giving those two things away,

10:46:31.080 --> 10:46:35.320
what are you getting in return? And in this game, Rue plays an amazing Wyvern. Curses are

10:46:35.320 --> 10:46:41.400
on point, but it doesn't lead too much. I could see, you know, vision coming back into this,

10:46:41.400 --> 10:46:45.720
really prioritizing the supports no matter what. I know that our bands ended up leading

10:46:45.720 --> 10:46:49.560
that way, but that was one of our biggest takeaways in what had been developing over the

10:46:49.560 --> 10:46:53.360
the first three games initially

10:46:53.360 --> 10:46:55.360
was nine classes pool in a way is

10:46:55.360 --> 10:46:57.360
shrinking and shrinking and he's

10:46:57.360 --> 10:46:59.360
kind of pushing to things that

10:46:59.360 --> 10:47:01.360
he knows how to play, but they're

10:47:01.360 --> 10:47:03.360
not really in the meta. They're

10:47:03.360 --> 10:47:05.360
not necessarily things that are

10:47:05.360 --> 10:47:07.360
comfortable. Even if it is

10:47:07.360 --> 10:47:09.360
something he knows how to play,

10:47:09.360 --> 10:47:11.360
so I just love switching it up and

10:47:11.360 --> 10:47:13.360
immediately taking it as soon as

10:47:13.360 --> 10:47:15.360
it was available and not even

10:47:15.360 --> 10:47:17.360
trying to call the bluff of

10:47:17.360 --> 10:47:21.880
Keeper of the Light, Hoodwick, they've only been banned or picked up by your opposition.

10:47:21.880 --> 10:47:27.880
He's a different beast on his pool of heroes and we saw the difference here, Quinn.

10:47:27.880 --> 10:47:32.360
Yeah, we definitely did. I think that is him as a player, right? He's had a small hero

10:47:32.360 --> 10:47:36.280
pool for his entire career. He plays two or three heroes per tournament and he's expanded

10:47:36.280 --> 10:47:40.160
that to his credit. He is not the same player that he was, but I think whenever you're

10:47:40.160 --> 10:47:44.120
in the most stressful situations, you tend to go back to who you are as a core of

10:47:44.120 --> 10:47:47.520
of a player. You're not going to play these extremities that are the new branches you've

10:47:47.520 --> 10:47:52.280
grafted onto your heckin' root here. You're going to go back to what you know best. You

10:47:52.280 --> 10:47:54.640
have the most games on. You're going to play your techies. You're going to play your

10:47:54.640 --> 10:47:57.840
coddles, the heroes that you have the most games on because you want to be comfortable.

10:47:57.840 --> 10:48:01.560
You want to feel calm and chill in these games because there's so much stress. There's

10:48:01.560 --> 10:48:06.280
so many external pressures. You don't need internal pressure on top of that.

10:48:06.280 --> 10:48:11.320
On top of that, I think the one-two punch, being able to exist for Team Vision

10:48:11.320 --> 10:48:30.320
makes a huge difference because I talked about the supports getting dived, but largely it was due to draft and when you have a hero like Morona playing with a hero like Sand King, it's different because we've had no one in a hero where he's getting run out consistently and he's losing the match up to Laurel, and then his supports are enchantress and mercy or something from line class.

10:48:30.320 --> 10:48:33.440
There are no means for the three of them to pose a threat on the map

10:48:33.440 --> 10:48:34.940
But in this game

10:48:34.940 --> 10:48:39.760
No one and the supports were a huge threat and they were moving around and we saw them for a large portion of the game

10:48:40.000 --> 10:48:45.780
Running into the triangle running into the camps making it so that TA can't sit and pick up net worth in that top lane

10:48:45.800 --> 10:48:50.000
Yeah, absolutely. I mean this is this was visions game. I think every other game

10:48:50.000 --> 10:48:52.000
it's been defined by SF and

10:48:52.000 --> 10:48:57.160
Spirit were better when it comes to an SF game. I think like that's objectively stated in the series and

10:48:58.120 --> 10:49:00.120
SF should probably not see the light of day

10:49:00.320 --> 10:49:04.940
anymore. I would be surprised if vision like gold the hero because I think if it's out, it

10:49:04.940 --> 10:49:08.340
seems like they have a much better grasp of how to set up the draft in a way that benefits

10:49:08.340 --> 10:49:09.340
them.

10:49:09.340 --> 10:49:14.340
I feel like we can't overstate just how exhausted Spirit are probably feeling at this point.

10:49:14.340 --> 10:49:19.160
You hit this massive adrenaline high coming out onto the stage. There was one before

10:49:19.160 --> 10:49:22.780
that one as well where they go on from the lower bracket and you win it and you're

10:49:22.780 --> 10:49:27.060
feeling so good. You too owe that. But now you're looking at a game number five.

10:49:27.060 --> 10:49:29.060
They've been playing since 10 AM.

10:49:29.060 --> 10:49:32.780
It's 10 hours now that they've been playing for themselves.

10:49:32.780 --> 10:49:35.180
And I really wonder how are you going to go the distance?

10:49:35.180 --> 10:49:37.220
How are you going to look towards a game number five

10:49:37.220 --> 10:49:39.380
and ensure that you're still putting everything you possibly

10:49:39.380 --> 10:49:42.220
can get into it because of how much is on the line right now?

10:49:42.220 --> 10:49:43.980
It is one game only.

10:49:43.980 --> 10:49:46.380
And it decides everything that you've built up

10:49:46.380 --> 10:49:48.820
over the last two weeks of TI 15.

10:49:48.820 --> 10:49:51.060
Not to mention that, but you just were one game away.

10:49:51.060 --> 10:49:52.300
And if you get a little ahead of yourself

10:49:52.300 --> 10:49:53.740
and you feel you hear my push guys, right?

10:49:53.740 --> 10:49:54.980
It is one game away.

10:49:54.980 --> 10:49:57.280
I think you'd even feel the nerves in his communication.

10:49:57.280 --> 10:49:59.720
And so you can only imagine what it feels like for the players.

10:49:59.720 --> 10:50:03.040
And you lose that you had a safety blanket and now your safety blanket is gone.

10:50:03.180 --> 10:50:05.740
You're both one game from losing one game from winning.

10:50:05.880 --> 10:50:09.040
And I think that is, I know it's a very cold place to be.

10:50:09.040 --> 10:50:11.220
It's stressful. It's you're out of the open.

10:50:11.320 --> 10:50:12.220
There's nothing protecting you.

10:50:12.220 --> 10:50:15.940
And I think for both teams, it's just it's so much pressure.

10:50:15.940 --> 10:50:18.080
They're so close to their dream and so close to failure.

10:50:18.080 --> 10:50:19.720
It's I don't know. It's a nice edge.

10:50:19.720 --> 10:50:22.940
It's also the coolest game that you could possibly have a TI right.

10:50:22.940 --> 10:50:29.980
Yeah, this is truly the maximum amount of pressure for both teams every single moment every single play that you make

10:50:30.100 --> 10:50:33.260
Could be that winning moment and it goes both ways

10:50:33.740 --> 10:50:38.540
Everybody has that in the back of their minds. There's nobody that's thinking to themselves like oh, that's just another problem

10:50:38.540 --> 10:50:44.180
I'm saying at home playing, you know now everything is on the line. I feel like this is truly what TI is all about

10:50:44.380 --> 10:50:48.660
It's about that high stakes high pressure the prestige all that coming together

10:50:48.660 --> 10:50:51.580
And now we get to see that pressure for both teams equally. Yeah

10:50:51.580 --> 10:50:57.580
It's people who have put a decade of their lives or longer into something and now this may not just be the most important part of

10:50:57.580 --> 10:51:01.500
Your Dota career, but to them it may feel like the most important part of the last decade of their lives

10:51:01.500 --> 10:51:07.020
It's not even 20 years old. It's half of his life. Maybe his entire life. This is the most pivotal moment

10:51:07.020 --> 10:51:10.980
That is there's so much gravity. There's so much importance for all of these players

10:51:10.980 --> 10:51:12.860
It's such a huge portion of their life

10:51:12.860 --> 10:51:17.100
They've dedicated to this and it's all culminating in one crucial moment

10:51:17.100 --> 10:51:22.140
There's no other avenue you get to take you don't get to rest on the laurels that it's a best of five

10:51:22.140 --> 10:51:23.540
There'll be more chances

10:51:23.540 --> 10:51:29.460
There's a lower bracket that we can come up through it is all or nothing when it comes to a game number five

10:51:29.580 --> 10:51:34.300
This is the last time they will walk out onto the stage in Shanghai the last opportunity

10:51:34.300 --> 10:51:40.380
They will get to be able to reach for that ages to lift it in celebration instead of staring at it from a distance

10:51:40.380 --> 10:51:43.620
And I could not imagine for the life of me how you

10:51:43.620 --> 10:51:47.580
you reset to yourself and you have to almost put yourself in the mind frame

10:51:47.580 --> 10:51:51.940
that there's more there's more out there and it isn't everything even though at

10:51:51.940 --> 10:51:56.380
the end of the day there is a lot towards it I think the best team will be the

10:51:56.380 --> 10:52:00.820
team to do it now it's just as easy as that in this game five this is where the

10:52:00.820 --> 10:52:05.260
champion is crowned whoever is better here will win and both of these teams

10:52:05.260 --> 10:52:09.820
have played their hearts out. We're just gonna have to wait and see.

10:52:09.820 --> 10:52:13.860
I mean, it's like, you know,

10:52:13.860 --> 10:52:15.860
it's like, you know, feeling in

10:52:15.860 --> 10:52:17.900
the arena. It's electric.

10:52:17.900 --> 10:52:18.900
Everybody knows this is an

10:52:18.900 --> 10:52:19.900
iconic series. This is one of

10:52:19.900 --> 10:52:20.900
these memorable moments that

10:52:20.900 --> 10:52:22.900
will go on and go to history.

10:52:22.900 --> 10:52:23.900
We get to be here alive,

10:52:23.900 --> 10:52:25.900
appreciating that soaking in

10:52:25.900 --> 10:52:26.900
what is an incredible game

10:52:26.900 --> 10:52:27.900
played by the best players in

10:52:27.900 --> 10:52:30.900
the world in the most tense

10:52:30.900 --> 10:52:31.900
moment of their careers. Spirit

10:52:31.900 --> 10:52:33.900
have seen a game number five

10:52:33.900 --> 10:52:35.900
on a bread final, though

10:52:35.900 --> 10:52:37.900
they've been out the other

10:52:37.900 --> 10:52:38.900
side and walking towards the

10:52:38.900 --> 10:52:45.140
They're saying we could be the people that stuff them stuff that 100% win streak that spirit have in ti grand finals

10:52:45.220 --> 10:52:48.300
I mean last time they did it they set up a trapping game five for the draft

10:52:48.300 --> 10:52:52.060
They managed to get their hands on that Magnus and you know the rest is history, right?

10:52:52.060 --> 10:52:54.420
So it's probably gonna look something similar again

10:52:54.420 --> 10:52:58.180
I think they've been trying to trap vision into playing their draft game all day today

10:52:58.180 --> 10:53:02.020
And if they managed to do it successfully, I think all you put easy game on their hands

10:53:02.020 --> 10:53:05.860
Yeah, it can't be understated how much of this series

10:53:05.860 --> 10:53:12.180
How much of this grand finals is a coach the coach matchup as well? All of these players have played elite incredible Dota

10:53:12.420 --> 10:53:19.820
Every single one of them has had moments in the series that were just the reason that the game changer the reason why their team could do it

10:53:19.820 --> 10:53:22.820
It's gonna be a matter of these traps that you're talking about

10:53:22.820 --> 10:53:27.020
But also what the coaches talked about in terms of pop in terms of motivation

10:53:27.460 --> 10:53:32.940
Can they even trap we talked about how in the post good this puppy in the draft in the first three puppy came back

10:53:32.940 --> 10:53:37.940
swinging in this last one and it's just going to be a battle of the brains now.

10:53:37.940 --> 10:53:41.740
And you can see puppy on the on the camera before they walk out on stage

10:53:41.740 --> 10:53:45.140
to him giving a speech to his players and all of them looking at him intently

10:53:45.140 --> 10:53:48.180
they're fully focused and believing everywhere he says and I think that's

10:53:48.180 --> 10:53:50.900
the kind of leadership you want you people who are buying in and they said

10:53:50.900 --> 10:53:53.780
whatever this guy's saying I'm fully on board what he picks for me we're

10:53:53.780 --> 10:53:56.340
gonna play the fullest of our ability and you're a team you're a

10:53:56.340 --> 10:54:00.460
succinct what your unit your one fist you're not five fingers. Yep

10:54:00.460 --> 10:54:07.100
Absolutely. Also, I can see on my screen that the coin flip has happened and Team Spirit has won it.

10:54:07.100 --> 10:54:11.020
Yeah, Team Spirit called heads and they get heads there.

10:54:11.020 --> 10:54:15.740
Now they have to decide what they want to do for themselves because for a game number four,

10:54:15.740 --> 10:54:21.980
they ended up picking, wanting that first pick. It didn't end up playing out in their favor.

10:54:21.980 --> 10:54:26.460
And so, again, I know all this preparation has already happened for them. They already know

10:54:26.460 --> 10:54:31.020
what they want but they're sitting there thinking about it and it is going to be first pick that they choose

10:54:31.820 --> 10:54:34.500
It seems to be the preferred choice throughout this tournament, right?

10:54:34.500 --> 10:54:34.680
Yeah

10:54:34.680 --> 10:54:39.740
It seems like a lot of teams prefer the first pick the cool thing with first pick is that you get to build your draft you kind of

10:54:40.740 --> 10:54:43.820
On first pick you are the one that's setting the pace you're the one that's saying okay

10:54:43.820 --> 10:54:49.220
These are the matchups that we're getting a lot of the times these teams are so good that they know that if I pick

10:54:49.220 --> 10:54:52.060
Library and you're gonna pick color they know this is coming

10:54:52.060 --> 10:54:55.060
So when you run first pick you kind of it's like playing white in chess

10:54:55.060 --> 10:55:00.520
You're making the first move they have to respond to you and that's the choice you want to be in right?

10:55:00.520 --> 10:55:03.460
You want to be in a driver's seat going into the sas game you want to feel like you're in control

10:55:03.460 --> 10:55:09.940
You want to feel like you're the one that determines how this final draft goes that was one of our criticisms though all of game number four

10:55:09.940 --> 10:55:12.420
Is that they open with the wyvern on the side of spirit?

10:55:12.420 --> 10:55:19.740
But don't actually build around it because what they end up pivoting that draft towards doesn't utilize it that ta you guys talked

10:55:19.740 --> 10:55:23.700
About time time again where ultimately didn't necessarily feel like they're on the same page

10:55:23.700 --> 10:55:29.700
It's not going to be a repeat for game five, but it does have that little bit of how will they open again?

10:55:29.700 --> 10:55:36.020
If the bands were to go the same way, how will they want to alter or adjust things to ensure that they could still have that advantage with first pick?

10:55:36.740 --> 10:55:40.500
Absolutely. I mean the Wyvern to me is still a very valuable hero,

10:55:40.500 --> 10:55:47.300
but the biggest purpose it serves this TI is that it pre-addresses laundry it and it pre-addresses nature's profit.

10:55:47.300 --> 10:55:50.980
And in that game four both of those heroes were banned in the first phase.

10:55:50.980 --> 10:55:57.140
They didn't even exist within the draft. So you took a hero that becomes very generic in that sense

10:55:57.140 --> 10:56:02.220
If it isn't aiding your draft and if you're just gonna open with a hero a clock opener for support

10:56:02.220 --> 10:56:04.440
Would have been easier to build her on the thumb that way Vernon

10:56:04.440 --> 10:56:08.820
I don't think we'll be seeing it in this game unless that loan druid is not banned

10:56:09.740 --> 10:56:13.740
Yeah, I would be inclined to agree and I think the bands will probably also be different

10:56:13.740 --> 10:56:17.220
I think Spear has learned from this they learned. I mean obviously they know this trade wasn't good

10:56:17.220 --> 10:56:21.920
They could definitely feel that in game and I'm sure Moposhka sees it and so they'll be looking for a different trade

10:56:21.920 --> 10:56:27.220
I have no idea what here will be. I think it's part of what makes this final so interesting is that it's not been super predictable

10:56:27.220 --> 10:56:32.060
What's been picked? It's not a meta where everyone agrees on the order that you pick things and it's the same trades every game

10:56:32.060 --> 10:56:33.860
It's very different trades. It's a lot of thought

10:56:33.860 --> 10:56:38.780
It's a very creative final with a lot of expression of sort of deeper here pools and historical

10:56:38.900 --> 10:56:43.900
Understandings of Dota mashups and so I think it's honestly hard to tell and we're just gonna have to wait and see what these great

10:56:43.900 --> 10:56:45.020
Dota minds cook up

10:56:45.020 --> 10:56:49.060
They've been able to utilize the breaks between games time and time again

10:56:49.060 --> 10:56:51.700
They've always been able to put on a show for us

10:56:51.700 --> 10:56:56.460
But right now it's down to the final last game and our final draft

10:56:59.300 --> 10:57:08.460
Team vision versus team spirit grand finals game five

10:57:08.460 --> 10:57:15.460
to see exactly what these two

10:57:15.460 --> 10:57:18.460
teams are going to build for

10:57:18.460 --> 10:57:20.460
themselves. In either a draft

10:57:20.460 --> 10:57:22.460
and an execution that will

10:57:22.460 --> 10:57:24.460
result in lifting the ages or

10:57:24.460 --> 10:57:26.460
one that walks away with

10:57:26.460 --> 10:57:28.460
disappointment and looking at

10:57:28.460 --> 10:57:29.460
this one spirit. We've already

10:57:29.460 --> 10:57:31.460
talked about has the first

10:57:31.460 --> 10:57:32.460
pick in the bands for

10:57:32.460 --> 10:57:34.460
themselves. It's a run back

10:57:34.460 --> 10:57:36.460
away from the last two

10:57:36.460 --> 10:57:40.500
the bands for themselves. It's a run back of bounty hunters and nature's profit at the

10:57:40.500 --> 10:57:45.100
moment with this time around it is vision going through the tree and the Shadow Fiend

10:57:45.100 --> 10:57:49.160
band. Yeah, it's a little different this time because Team Spirit had first pick in game

10:57:49.160 --> 10:57:53.460
four and they banned their own Shadow Fiend. This time around vision are the ones that

10:57:53.460 --> 10:57:58.300
banned the SF. So it makes it that they can choose their pick of the litter here

10:57:58.300 --> 10:58:03.460
between the Earth Spirit, between the Lone Druid and the Dark Blue, I believe.

10:58:04.140 --> 10:58:08.640
Yeah, this is and they're using reserve time on it. They're gonna band it. I really like this

10:58:08.640 --> 10:58:14.200
I think now the key thing for spirit is you want to pick something that doesn't open you up to keep for the light either

10:58:14.200 --> 10:58:16.740
I don't think they'll take it themselves. It's not super good for spear

10:58:16.740 --> 10:58:19.260
But you want something that is solid is fortified

10:58:19.260 --> 10:58:25.220
It doesn't have an immediate easy response because I think that is most like who a vision is looking at on the second pick

10:58:25.860 --> 10:58:30.720
Yeah, I mean I think it all I would even extend as further to say it like you probably want to pick something that

10:58:30.720 --> 10:58:32.720
the suede's keeper of the light.

10:58:32.720 --> 10:58:34.440
So I don't think they play it themselves.

10:58:34.440 --> 10:58:35.720
I don't think I've seen them play it.

10:58:35.720 --> 10:58:36.560
I don't think so.

10:58:36.560 --> 10:58:38.960
So I think vision right now, they're probably thinking,

10:58:38.960 --> 10:58:41.720
okay, we got our cuddle if we get the chance.

10:58:41.720 --> 10:58:43.720
Yeah, but also Earth Spirit, right?

10:58:43.720 --> 10:58:48.080
I mean, no one is undefeated with Earth Spirit, this TI.

10:58:48.080 --> 10:58:50.320
Like teams have let it through a couple of times

10:58:50.320 --> 10:58:52.280
and it just, it doesn't work out.

10:58:52.280 --> 10:58:54.480
Like our, our spirit really trying to call

10:58:54.480 --> 10:58:57.280
on Earth Spirit plus here at a game five.

10:58:57.280 --> 10:58:59.200
I don't think it's calling it plus so much as

10:58:59.200 --> 10:59:02.300
They found success when 9 class hasn't had his hero, right?

10:59:02.300 --> 10:59:06.100
And I think that is why even potentially they might take their caudal over it.

10:59:06.100 --> 10:59:08.100
Oh, they ban it themselves. Okay, interesting.

10:59:09.000 --> 10:59:13.000
So then I wonder what it's going to be that prevents caudal in some way.

10:59:13.000 --> 10:59:15.400
Or that maybe that just doesn't care about caudal.

10:59:15.400 --> 10:59:18.100
Maybe doesn't prevent it, but it's fine playing against it.

10:59:18.100 --> 10:59:20.200
Because to me that is crucial.

10:59:20.200 --> 10:59:21.900
Nothing is coming to me as super apparent.

10:59:21.900 --> 10:59:24.500
It's been a big hero in this series that prevents caudal

10:59:24.500 --> 10:59:26.500
or is really good against caudal, so...

10:59:26.500 --> 10:59:30.540
This is honestly one of the best heroes you can play against Kotal.

10:59:30.540 --> 10:59:35.140
It is an old-school counter to Kotal because you beat him in lane, you hit so much harder than he does.

10:59:35.140 --> 10:59:42.940
You're fast, you can match him when you're on stack camps, you can sleep him, you can kind of stop Kotal from being Kotal in the early versions of the game.

10:59:42.940 --> 10:59:45.460
Another drawback to Kotal is that he doesn't have a stun.

10:59:45.460 --> 10:59:49.580
9-class has been buying Hex, but it takes about 30 minutes or so before that comes out.

10:59:49.580 --> 10:59:51.980
So you get a free fiend's grip for the majority of the game.

10:59:51.980 --> 10:59:57.080
It also decides from Ember's spirit and a lot of no one's other hero pulls Pango as well.

10:59:57.080 --> 11:00:02.380
Bane solves for this. This is why this hero has just been so up there and a grand priority for a lot of teams.

11:00:02.460 --> 11:00:09.240
You literally read my mind because I was gonna ask how does this answer or potential just bringing out an Ember's spirit and planning a slug?

11:00:09.240 --> 11:00:12.720
And we don't even look towards that. It's straight up an invoker.

11:00:12.720 --> 11:00:18.580
I think this this plays indirectly we all are saying about the Pango and the spirits, right? Those heroes that just run into Bane

11:00:18.580 --> 11:00:22.620
They're typically not that good. You want something as further range that can cancel the grip right off the bat

11:00:22.620 --> 11:00:25.540
Right grip has been answered now for the majority of the early game. It's

11:00:27.660 --> 11:00:31.940
So I think I think it's a very cool pick it's a very it's a clutch pick that just says hey

11:00:31.940 --> 11:00:34.900
This is good against Bane you pick the hero we're picking here with it's good against that

11:00:34.900 --> 11:00:38.420
I think that really works vision in the last game and while it's a different hero

11:00:38.420 --> 11:00:41.940
I think not jamming the coddle into a situation. It would be bad and is very smart

11:00:42.660 --> 11:00:48.540
But now this invoker is out mid this can be punished like Laurel does play pango and pango versus

11:00:48.580 --> 11:00:53.300
Invoker Mid is one of the rougher notch-ups for Invoker. It just tempos very hard and by having

11:00:53.300 --> 11:00:58.340
Bane on Team Spirit, they can secure it for themselves with no fear. I absolutely agree that

11:00:58.340 --> 11:01:03.060
the Invo's grading is Bane, but I fear for how the rest of the draft builds, and that's where

11:01:03.060 --> 11:01:07.780
your point about the pango comes in. I feel like building around this Bane has a lot less

11:01:07.780 --> 11:01:11.700
vulnerabilities. The Invoker is a lot more exposed and there's a lot more potential angles

11:01:11.700 --> 11:01:16.420
for Spirit to try to exploit here. And heroes like Pangolier, other heroes that might cause

11:01:16.420 --> 11:01:19.460
positions for Invoker because he's quite a defining hero from the mid lane.

11:01:19.460 --> 11:01:21.740
He's not one of those heroes that moves around and makes a lot of moves.

11:01:21.740 --> 11:01:25.980
You know what kind of heroes he needs. He needs some sort of stuns. He needs Sunstrike setups.

11:01:25.980 --> 11:01:30.100
The Quasarix angle for the hero doesn't exist right now, so it's very one-dimension.

11:01:30.100 --> 11:01:36.500
He gets run out very easily as well. So for example, if something like a Bane plus Marana come out from Team Spirit,

11:01:36.500 --> 11:01:39.500
Invoker can't defend himself very well against them.

11:01:40.300 --> 11:01:44.300
You can see Spirit also, they don't care about the Cottle. It may have owned last game,

11:01:44.300 --> 11:01:49.060
But this is this is different circumstances. They bend the dark willow instead saying you want to call it again brother take it

11:01:49.060 --> 11:01:51.060
We've got answers this game

11:01:51.060 --> 11:01:54.100
Yeah, it's just high-level drafting going on right now, right?

11:01:54.100 --> 11:01:57.300
So vision they need to try to secure up this in boker's game

11:01:57.300 --> 11:02:02.780
They need to try to build around him make sure that he can actually be that they encounter as the game progresses and actually scale

11:02:02.780 --> 11:02:07.860
Into the game and not just be countered into oblivion by the time the fifth pick comes out from team spirit

11:02:08.100 --> 11:02:12.940
Yeah, a big way you do that is getting strong lanes and getting some melee hero or some tanky hero

11:02:12.940 --> 11:02:17.820
that can sort of play in front and give invoker space because there's aggression coming towards mid as soon as you pick invoker

11:02:17.820 --> 11:02:19.460
There's a big spotlight on them mid lane

11:02:19.460 --> 11:02:22.220
They want to pressure you they want to run you over because you're vulnerable early

11:02:22.220 --> 11:02:28.180
And so revision having something that protects the area that can fend off the bane whether they be vision or clutch plays or something

11:02:28.180 --> 11:02:31.020
To pick up the nightmare anything really there's a lot of potential answers

11:02:31.020 --> 11:02:36.180
But you want to fortify this guy completely agree go shout out happy birthday to everyone born today

11:02:36.460 --> 11:02:40.940
Guy in the arena celebrating his birthday celebrating a game five between spirit and vision

11:02:40.940 --> 11:02:42.940
I don't know if you could be any more blessed really

11:02:43.780 --> 11:02:45.380
It's a great birthday

11:02:45.380 --> 11:02:50.660
And this is a great year versus Bane it does all those things and it's a very classic response

11:02:51.140 --> 11:02:56.340
Yeah, the zero is really good against Bane. It's also a nine-class hero. I will say he doesn't really play it that often

11:02:56.340 --> 11:02:57.700
But I think he plays it extremely well

11:02:57.700 --> 11:03:02.920
He's one of those people that when you give him something like this that has like some sort of clutch plays some sort of like

11:03:03.540 --> 11:03:07.460
Can do some weird stuff usually find the impact and it was a big fan of buying a shard

11:03:07.460 --> 11:03:10.980
And also lifting is the allies out of danger. And here's the pango mirror

11:03:11.240 --> 11:03:14.740
Yeah, I mean, that's a great landing against invoker. It has a free bkb

11:03:14.740 --> 11:03:19.960
Like I feel like free bkb and dota is so conceptually broken. That's what I've seen life stealer this series as well

11:03:19.960 --> 11:03:22.580
I do want to comment that with them not that this derivative is out

11:03:22.580 --> 11:03:27.860
I hear that kind of got forgotten about last game was the underlord that popped off in game 2

11:03:27.860 --> 11:03:31.020
Like our spirit in a position where they have to pick it here

11:03:31.020 --> 11:03:36.340
Or they just give it to vision because underlord would fit so many bills to set up for this invoker cataclysm later on

11:03:36.340 --> 11:03:42.380
It's so scary to pick into Rubik because this firestorm gets amped up. It feels so much damage

11:03:42.380 --> 11:03:45.360
It cuts through you so quickly you go from being this tanky blob

11:03:45.900 --> 11:03:50.480
To just being butter. Yeah, you just have to deal with it then you have to give them the underlord

11:03:51.060 --> 11:03:56.380
That is I'm not gonna lie. It's a very scary prospect. I think it gives you incredible scaling

11:03:56.380 --> 11:04:01.620
It gives you real ease of execution where you can sit back and farm and the spirit doesn't run at you that eventually

11:04:01.620 --> 11:04:06.860
This Bane, this Pangalore, these are heroes that need to commit to fights in some way and I think Spirit with the Murana

11:04:06.860 --> 11:04:10.140
It's exactly what you mentioned, Merah, but it's very focused on aggression

11:04:10.140 --> 11:04:13.060
And if there's an Underlord coming, these are heroes that don't like being held down

11:04:13.060 --> 11:04:19.460
They don't deal well with roots, they play well off mobility and there is a potential serious scaling problem

11:04:19.460 --> 11:04:20.220
Mm-hmm

11:04:20.220 --> 11:04:25.900
This is how heroes can become problems, but then another problem is posed with the Doom in that last game

11:04:25.900 --> 11:04:31.460
Then Doom shifts up in priority and the Underlord that was banned was forgotten about and it's just so much

11:04:31.460 --> 11:04:33.540
which isn't happening in this TI Grand Finals.

11:04:33.540 --> 11:04:35.660
It's wild to keep up with.

11:04:35.660 --> 11:04:36.420
Yeah, absolutely.

11:04:36.420 --> 11:04:37.540
I mean, this Undalord, I agree.

11:04:37.540 --> 11:04:38.620
It poses a lot of issues.

11:04:38.620 --> 11:04:40.100
It's creating us a pangolier.

11:04:40.100 --> 11:04:42.260
You get that global root that can set up for spells.

11:04:42.260 --> 11:04:44.300
They can set up for any sort of lift play for Mubak.

11:04:44.300 --> 11:04:46.900
Pango does have a shard that kind of protects them

11:04:46.900 --> 11:04:47.820
against it.

11:04:47.820 --> 11:04:49.740
And Undalord is yet another hero

11:04:49.740 --> 11:04:52.100
that does not have a stun to cancel the fiend spirit.

11:04:52.100 --> 11:04:54.060
So if they go for that, that's

11:04:54.060 --> 11:04:56.860
something that you have to keep in mind.

11:04:56.860 --> 11:04:58.940
Yeah.

11:04:58.940 --> 11:05:05.640
Yatora will also have the pick to counter that, so we'll be able to merely respond, and they're not going to go for it.

11:05:05.640 --> 11:05:11.240
Axe into Bane is a little surprising to me. It's something you would typically consider as a pretty good response to Axe,

11:05:11.240 --> 11:05:16.540
because when he calls a guy you just sleep him and have a save, so I don't know what you think, but I was a bit surprised.

11:05:16.540 --> 11:05:20.840
I am as well. I feel like the Underlord looked a lot more difficult to address within the draft,

11:05:20.840 --> 11:05:24.440
but it seems like Vision wanted to build around there in Voker.

11:05:24.440 --> 11:05:31.000
While Underlord would have solved a lot of issues in the game, they looked at it as we have an invoker in our first phase.

11:05:31.000 --> 11:05:33.000
Do we have enough setup for it?

11:05:33.000 --> 11:05:36.120
Let's just go for Axe, the greatest setup for invoker in all of Dota.

11:05:36.120 --> 11:05:38.120
Yeah, it's also a little bit more of a pressure laner.

11:05:38.120 --> 11:05:39.080
Next to void.

11:05:39.080 --> 11:05:43.080
Yeah, I mean, pressure is a bit more on lane, right? Underlord kind of likes to draw out lanes.

11:05:43.080 --> 11:05:45.960
He doesn't really play so aggressively. He tends to firestorm out the lanes,

11:05:45.960 --> 11:05:49.400
and that would open up a lot of doors for your Toro to just kind of pick anything you want.

11:05:49.400 --> 11:05:52.680
With Axe, you have to be quite mindful of picking ranged carries.

11:05:52.680 --> 11:05:57.480
They tend to kill themselves quite easily on blade nails. So a lot of those heroes are now scary if you're toward the pink

11:06:00.160 --> 11:06:05.560
Axe is not the eat me. There's there's the lifestealer, which is I think it's a pretty good decent game for it

11:06:05.560 --> 11:06:08.620
But it's not something you tore particularly likes. It's not in his realize

11:06:08.620 --> 11:06:11.960
I think satanic is much more comfortable and appreciates the hero a lot more

11:06:12.960 --> 11:06:17.400
Classic you tour heroes when I see invoker. I think something like the faceless void, but I don't know

11:06:17.400 --> 11:06:20.720
I mean, I would love to see but I don't know if it's good enough

11:06:22.680 --> 11:06:28.680
Just because it's free BKB. We talked about it with Tango. You've got another free BKB, you counter Invoker.

11:06:28.680 --> 11:06:34.680
Again, Vision are saying with this axe pick that Invoker is the centerpiece of their draft and they want to build around it

11:06:34.680 --> 11:06:39.680
and Spirit choose to conceptually counter that with a hero that is not truly so good against Invoker.

11:06:39.680 --> 11:06:47.680
Yeah, I think right now looking at Vision's tools, they can stun the lifestealer with the axe, but what next?

11:06:47.680 --> 11:06:51.660
There needs to be some big physical damage coming out here from safe honey

11:06:51.660 --> 11:06:55.740
It is absolutely what he's capable of but they need to find a way to kill this life stealer

11:06:55.740 --> 11:06:56.820
This hero has won

11:06:56.820 --> 11:07:02.140
I believe every single game that we've seen him in the span final and I think he's been quite a big problem in all the games

11:07:02.140 --> 11:07:03.980
I've been seeing the span final to

11:07:03.980 --> 11:07:10.260
Yeah, and these are very important bands spirit needs to think about what gives them the scaling they think boy does

11:07:10.260 --> 11:07:12.260
I think that's a great band it would have been

11:07:12.260 --> 11:07:16.540
Terrifying to play against as the scale comes out because I think you don't want to be on a big timer

11:07:16.540 --> 11:07:20.940
I don't think Spirit is on one right now, but things are subject to change in these last two picks and

11:07:21.640 --> 11:07:24.100
With grand finals with everything on the line

11:07:24.100 --> 11:07:26.300
You don't want to have that clock ticking in your ear

11:07:26.300 --> 11:07:30.420
They saying go go go go go you want to be able to chill and play the game at your pace

11:07:30.420 --> 11:07:33.420
I mean we saw a perfect example of just that in game three, right?

11:07:33.420 --> 11:07:38.100
Like the last pick of the draft we think Spirit has to play for pressure DB comes out

11:07:38.100 --> 11:07:41.560
It completely flips the script and these heroes obviously exist, right?

11:07:41.560 --> 11:07:44.580
So I love that the void gets banned out this hero, you know

11:07:44.580 --> 11:07:47.700
You could say, oh, you can just run it over it's slow. They have way too many slow heroes

11:07:47.700 --> 11:07:50.660
But it's grand finals of TI. It's a completely different beast

11:07:50.700 --> 11:07:57.100
You don't want to be in a position where you guarantee blues if the game reaches a certain point of time. Yeah, it's it's just too scary

11:07:57.100 --> 11:08:01.260
It's too scary. It's too risky and it forces too heavy a burden of execution

11:08:01.260 --> 11:08:05.700
I genuinely think both teams are gunning so hard for we just need to be able to scale

11:08:05.700 --> 11:08:07.700
We need things that are just good game matchups

11:08:08.020 --> 11:08:12.700
Because it's just too stressful to play a game like this in a game 5 where you have to run them over

11:08:14.580 --> 11:08:21.340
And there's a TV. It's the other beast that eventually just starts feeling infinite physical damage both banned out

11:08:21.340 --> 11:08:23.940
It's also one of Satanic's absolute favorite heroes

11:08:23.940 --> 11:08:30.100
And I think if Satanic could choose to play his favorite hero in his last game of TI that probably would have been TV

11:08:32.760 --> 11:08:38.380
Yeah another hero I think of when I think of Satanic classic heroes as the morphing not a great hero traditionally

11:08:38.380 --> 11:08:41.240
But it does have a good match with against lifestealer. That's a good point. Yeah

11:08:41.240 --> 11:08:49.240
He likes a lot of cards too, and he is playing against Vayne which can be very difficult for him, but he does have a Rubik covering for him, I think it's good.

11:08:49.240 --> 11:08:55.240
So the big portion of their draft is just designed around like hey, how do we make Vayne not have high impact, right?

11:08:55.240 --> 11:08:59.240
So I feel like if you're Satanic here, you have to trust your team to take care of that Vayne for you.

11:08:59.240 --> 11:09:04.240
Because that's what you've covered, you've got Rubik, you've got Invoker, you've got Podwin, you've got a lot of stuns.

11:09:04.240 --> 11:09:08.240
Hopefully the Vayne is not a factor in whatever he decides to pick here, because his team will cover it.

11:09:08.240 --> 11:09:13.040
cover it. A split on the last phase bands are taking a centaur and a puck out of the pool from

11:09:13.040 --> 11:09:18.480
the side of vision. Not really knowing if this pango is still 100% in that mid lane full lull

11:09:18.480 --> 11:09:22.720
despite the success he's had so far at TI on it, or if they're willing to shift it to claps,

11:09:22.720 --> 11:09:27.840
if a better mid lane would have presented itself. Yeah, it's smart. I think the puck

11:09:27.840 --> 11:09:30.720
could have been pretty good here, despite the hero not having a great track record this

11:09:30.720 --> 11:09:34.160
tournament. And now Spirit's got to decide where they're putting it.

11:09:34.160 --> 11:09:36.160
it.

11:09:36.160 --> 11:09:38.160
There are some heroes you can sign to do.

11:09:38.160 --> 11:09:41.160
Just some blank pick heroes that are comfortable,

11:09:41.160 --> 11:09:43.160
like Underlord or Tide or something.

11:09:43.160 --> 11:09:45.160
Darkseer for Teamfight.

11:09:46.160 --> 11:09:48.160
Okay.

11:09:48.160 --> 11:09:50.160
So this is pretty good,

11:09:50.160 --> 11:09:53.160
but this is a hero that is also susceptible to the

11:09:53.160 --> 11:09:56.160
encounter pick traditionally. There are some responses

11:09:56.160 --> 11:09:59.160
like this Sven that we've seen have a lot of success

11:09:59.160 --> 11:10:00.160
against the Darkseer.

11:10:00.160 --> 11:10:03.160
It's a good Sven game. It makes a lot of sense for

11:10:03.160 --> 11:10:08.680
heroes, Invoker loves playing with Sven, Sven loves getting Alakardied, and it's honestly

11:10:08.680 --> 11:10:11.920
a pretty decent matchup against Lifestealer, or it can be, but they have this time the

11:10:11.920 --> 11:10:15.720
steroids on their side, right? You have the Invoker that's going to amp up whatever carry

11:10:15.720 --> 11:10:19.880
they pick. I kind of like it. It makes a lot of sense to me.

11:10:19.880 --> 11:10:26.000
Yeah, and it also dissuades from Sam Pestey, Keel, or Naga Siren coming out at the very

11:10:26.000 --> 11:10:30.320
end. You have to always account for this type of hero out of game 5, and Darkseer

11:10:30.320 --> 11:10:31.320
gives a solution.

11:10:31.320 --> 11:10:34.500
Yeah, Darkseid definitely covers the illusion heroes.

11:10:34.500 --> 11:10:37.620
Usually you attempt to want to pick some sort of strength carry core into Darkseid.

11:10:37.620 --> 11:10:41.320
All the agility heroes give Darkseid a pretty good illusion for him to use.

11:10:41.320 --> 11:10:42.320
Wow!

11:10:42.320 --> 11:10:43.320
Bro!

11:10:43.320 --> 11:10:44.320
You can't be doing this!

11:10:44.320 --> 11:10:47.320
Did you see what happened last year?

11:10:47.320 --> 11:10:48.320
Yesterday!

11:10:48.320 --> 11:10:49.320
Whoa!

11:10:49.320 --> 11:10:51.320
That item doesn't exist anymore.

11:10:51.320 --> 11:10:53.320
That neutral item is gone.

11:10:53.320 --> 11:10:54.320
That's true.

11:10:54.320 --> 11:11:00.320
I cannot believe we are seeing a Juggernaut in a Game 5 here in Shanghai.

11:11:00.320 --> 11:11:04.320
This is a crazy pick from Vision and from Satanic!

11:11:04.320 --> 11:11:09.320
Like it's a good lane against Darkseer, you outheal with your healing ward, all of the pressure.

11:11:09.320 --> 11:11:17.320
Every time you say I can understand what Juggernaut does here, the hero tends to have a bad history in elimination games at TI.

11:11:17.320 --> 11:11:22.320
But Mira, you did say one of the most broken concepts in Dota is having a free BKB.

11:11:22.320 --> 11:11:28.320
And all the free BKB heroes are in this grand final, game 5 of TI 53.

11:11:28.320 --> 11:11:36.320
I don't know. I mean you're playing against Spain. I think there's a lot on Ruvik's shoulders to cover against the Spain and make it so that Saekhannik can play the game.

11:11:36.320 --> 11:11:43.320
D'Arganaut as a hero has very good scaling. They're going to have the Alacrity plus Omni Slash combo versus the Lifestealer.

11:11:43.320 --> 11:11:49.320
You know, it does fuck to get Omni Slash, but the scaling is there absolutely for Team Spirit too.

11:11:49.320 --> 11:11:57.320
I don't know. Yesterday we saw that with Boom Boys. I was like, I kind of am with it. It's a weird hero, but it's an elimination game, Quinn.

11:11:57.320 --> 11:12:02.840
It's not just elimination. It's where your hopes and dreams are shattered or made. This is it's literally the culmination

11:12:02.840 --> 11:12:06.960
It's the end of the entire tournament. It's game five the most exciting place you can ever be for the tournament

11:12:07.080 --> 11:12:10.060
You picked jargonot, but hey, you've got to stick to some kind of guns. I

11:12:11.200 --> 11:12:14.560
Don't know if I can put full faith in a juggernaut

11:12:14.560 --> 11:12:20.460
But I can put full faith in the entertainment that we will get to see we talked about it

11:12:20.460 --> 11:12:23.180
And saying you do you really want to be putting yourself on a time?

11:12:23.180 --> 11:12:29.860
whether that's to finish early or stall the game out late and I feel like there is that potential issue for vision for this game 5 I

11:12:30.220 --> 11:12:33.260
Mean I honestly think I don't know which team scales better

11:12:34.060 --> 11:12:38.540
How am I supposed to decide when with the last time we saw a juggernaut in like full glory?

11:12:38.540 --> 11:12:43.260
I don't know. I honestly don't know what the Serious timings are. I've only ever seen it lose lately. I

11:12:43.780 --> 11:12:45.780
Don't know. I don't know not

11:12:46.300 --> 11:12:52.060
Satanic players before you have attempted this they've tried this they've fallen on their faces

11:12:52.060 --> 11:12:54.060
will you be the one to break the

11:12:54.060 --> 11:12:56.060
juggernaut cruise at TI will you show

11:12:56.060 --> 11:12:58.060
us what this hero is made of?

11:12:58.060 --> 11:13:02.060
Oh my goodness dude oh my goodness you can

11:13:02.060 --> 11:13:06.060
feel it the energy in the air going into this match

11:13:06.060 --> 11:13:08.060
I'm just excited to watch it's literally the

11:13:08.060 --> 11:13:11.060
peak of the game. I want you guys before we do

11:13:11.060 --> 11:13:14.060
get to something special tell me vision or spirit

11:13:14.060 --> 11:13:16.060
who will be the team standing out there lifting

11:13:16.060 --> 11:13:19.060
that Aegis with now both drops playing out

11:13:19.060 --> 11:13:28.180
Spirit, I think so too, but you know it's faith and jug no I never have faith

11:13:28.180 --> 11:13:33.620
and jug but I have faith in satanic and his play style in senior all I see it's

11:13:33.620 --> 11:13:36.620
This is closer to 50, as I can see, but I go spirit.

11:13:49.620 --> 11:13:52.620
Ladies and gentlemen, you know this man well.

11:13:52.620 --> 11:13:55.620
One of the most iconic players in the world.

11:13:55.620 --> 11:13:57.620
Going for his third Aegis.

11:13:57.620 --> 11:13:58.620
Get it up!

11:13:58.620 --> 11:14:01.620
Verma Posca!

11:14:03.620 --> 11:14:10.620
Today you face Muffy my friend. Any words to say to the coach?

11:14:10.620 --> 11:14:15.620
I'm not going to say something bad to definitely you see him.

11:14:15.620 --> 11:14:18.620
That's a big boy!

11:14:18.620 --> 11:14:25.620
Of course. So I just wish good luck. I think both teams got the comfort of the arts.

11:14:25.620 --> 11:14:31.620
So the team will show who is the really best team in the world now.

11:14:31.620 --> 11:14:33.620
Absolutely.

11:14:33.620 --> 11:14:35.620
Thank you. I can't say anything to Puppey.

11:14:35.620 --> 11:14:36.620
You can see how much he has done.

11:14:36.620 --> 11:14:39.620
But I think both teams have got what they wanted.

11:14:39.620 --> 11:14:42.620
Let's see who is the winner.

11:14:43.620 --> 11:14:46.620
From the international one till now,

11:14:46.620 --> 11:14:50.620
there is no one more associated with TI than this man.

11:14:50.620 --> 11:14:54.620
Give it up for Puppey!

11:14:54.620 --> 11:15:07.620
The time for prep is over. The time for picks is over. Now the game is on the players. Anything to say to Apocha?

11:15:07.620 --> 11:15:19.620
Thanks for not beating us right away. Game 5 is pretty good. Thanks to them. We got game 5. He has done a really good job with his team.

11:15:19.620 --> 11:15:23.620
All the best of luck to both teams. Hope it's a great order.

11:15:36.620 --> 11:15:39.620
And one of the most legendary moments in TI history.

11:15:39.620 --> 11:15:46.620
Can I please have both coaches shake some hands? Let's see it!

11:15:46.620 --> 11:15:48.620
Yeah, baby!

11:15:48.620 --> 11:15:50.620
Yeah, baby!

11:15:50.620 --> 11:15:52.620
Final five minutes.

11:15:52.620 --> 11:15:54.620
Two seconds to go.

11:15:58.620 --> 11:16:03.620
Here we go in the game five time here at the international here in Shanghai.

11:16:03.620 --> 11:16:05.620
And there's a juggernaut.

11:16:05.620 --> 11:16:07.620
Game five again.

11:16:07.620 --> 11:16:11.620
What's going on? I can't wait to see what Satanic's going to have in store for us this game.

11:16:11.620 --> 11:16:13.620
An interesting pick.

11:16:13.620 --> 11:16:16.900
pick it was always gonna be the question what the calorie selection was gonna be

11:16:16.900 --> 11:16:20.260
coming towards the end of the draft a satanic making the call to bring the

11:16:20.260 --> 11:16:23.740
juggernaut top lane we've already had the first blood go down here in favor of

11:16:23.740 --> 11:16:28.260
team vision 9 class look he's gonna live in your Toro he might be in trouble

11:16:28.260 --> 11:16:36.100
getting chased down here with the battle hunger upon him notice is likely

11:16:36.100 --> 11:16:40.140
gonna happen he will what a play all right couple of kills already start this

11:16:40.140 --> 11:16:45.060
game of the vision, but fuck talk to me bringing the juggernaut out here especially in front of this crowd

11:16:45.060 --> 11:16:49.740
They're gonna have some painful memories about this job. They sure will but this is you look at the draft

11:16:49.740 --> 11:16:53.060
Yeah, you can kind of see the idea the concept behind it, right?

11:16:53.060 --> 11:16:58.740
They're looking for this immunity this year that has that built-in BKB like the panel was talking about and playing versus pango in

11:16:58.740 --> 11:17:01.940
general right you rolling thunder in you can just get on me slash

11:17:01.940 --> 11:17:06.660
It's a theory that teams have wanted to try versus this pango multiple different times on paper

11:17:06.700 --> 11:17:08.940
We'll have to see what satanic can do for it

11:17:08.940 --> 11:17:13.860
It's incredible. I mean, I cannot believe we get a job in game five and back to back finals

11:17:13.860 --> 11:17:17.180
That's absolutely at sea. I that is absolutely amazing

11:17:17.180 --> 11:17:20.160
And as I say, it's just gonna be a pleasure to see what Satanic can do with it

11:17:20.160 --> 11:17:24.460
It's just such a different style of carry to anything else for seeing right

11:17:24.460 --> 11:17:28.900
Who else are you picking to farm a battle fury in 2026 for nobody?

11:17:29.340 --> 11:17:33.940
Then early nobody we're not seeing any battle through is building big thought because the timing of it can be pretty difficult

11:17:33.940 --> 11:17:35.900
But the lane he saw his lane matchup

11:17:35.900 --> 11:17:39.660
It isn't a double melee type of Darkseer, Ion Show Pressure Lane, and even if it was,

11:17:39.660 --> 11:17:43.400
Junk is pretty good versus that with the Healing Ward, you have wasted to gait it with the Spin.

11:17:43.400 --> 11:17:44.900
This is super interesting, Owen.

11:17:44.900 --> 11:17:48.800
And the matchup, the Junk versus the Life Stealer, see how that one ends up going as well, too,

11:17:48.800 --> 11:17:52.100
because times have changed for a while in the old school days, just like,

11:17:52.100 --> 11:17:53.900
oh, you army slash the Life Stealer, and you die.

11:17:53.900 --> 11:17:54.900
Yeah, that's right.

11:17:54.900 --> 11:17:56.500
That isn't really the case anymore.

11:17:56.500 --> 11:17:59.400
He has Waste to play around it with his infest, jumping in and out,

11:17:59.400 --> 11:18:01.200
even being tanky enough to stand through.

11:18:01.200 --> 11:18:05.100
We'll have to see how these lanes do go, because right now, Yatoro is fueling this pressure in this lane.

11:18:05.100 --> 11:18:08.300
This top lane, 9th class in notice, they're doing a fantastic job.

11:18:08.300 --> 11:18:12.700
Collapse also, he is killed the pressure on the opposing side too, so the lanes at the moment

11:18:12.700 --> 11:18:14.700
looking very good for the side of vision.

11:18:14.700 --> 11:18:16.700
They might be able to chase him down here, Collapse.

11:18:16.700 --> 11:18:19.700
Couple of hits, he's gone!

11:18:19.700 --> 11:18:25.200
Already! Team vision up, three kills here, across the lanes.

11:18:25.200 --> 11:18:29.700
And Saitanik also a very hot start. Top of the CS right now here is the safe lane jump.

11:18:29.700 --> 11:18:34.000
I love when we see these type of crazy high execution, high damage type of lineups.

11:18:34.000 --> 11:18:37.440
We have an infoker in game 5 as well too. We have to mention for no one

11:18:37.520 --> 11:18:43.020
Some teams have been deterred away from picking this hero because of this counter pick pango matchup in the mid game

11:18:43.020 --> 11:18:46.780
But no one at least in the laning phase. He's holding his own very nicely here

11:18:46.860 --> 11:18:49.080
19-9 to the 22-9 in the mid game

11:18:49.080 --> 11:18:53.260
It starts to be a bit problematic because you just get rolled on and it can be hard to just survive

11:18:53.320 --> 11:18:54.940
But they do have ways to protect him

11:18:54.940 --> 11:18:58.720
I think that's with nine class when he gets the shard can go for this potential save

11:18:58.720 --> 11:19:03.700
So we're absolutely in for a treat on this. You have some pretty insane Rubik plays earlier

11:19:03.700 --> 11:19:08.020
to keep the cores alive throughout the chaos that was being brought on to them.

11:19:08.020 --> 11:19:12.420
And I specifically wanted to mention Nine Class because we did say at the start of that last game,

11:19:12.420 --> 11:19:14.740
there could be a difference between the position fours.

11:19:14.740 --> 11:19:20.100
Not me had one of the quietest clockwork games ever and Nine Class went absolutely ham on the coddle.

11:19:20.100 --> 11:19:24.580
So see if he can do something similar on the Rubik this game because he has some very good spells to steal.

11:19:25.780 --> 11:19:28.820
As the fiends grip, he has the saves that he can do with the shard as well too.

11:19:28.820 --> 11:19:31.380
You can steal some of the pango spells. Great options.

11:19:31.380 --> 11:19:37.060
lanes starting to get broken a bit here and talking about the last pick for

11:19:37.060 --> 11:19:40.100
vision you know over on the side of spirit their last pick going for the

11:19:40.100 --> 11:19:44.180
darks here for collapse seems like a good game for it yeah before the jog of

11:19:44.180 --> 11:19:46.460
course is gonna be a decent counterfeit but I think what they were looking at

11:19:46.460 --> 11:19:49.500
is they're gonna have to pick an edge carry so this wall is gonna be quite

11:19:49.500 --> 11:19:53.300
effective in overall game stage so some strikes gonna connect on to and they

11:19:53.300 --> 11:19:56.060
got the bushwack as well as the colors no one step up night class

11:19:56.060 --> 11:20:00.600
bulls die so they get the trade here between the supports and it's both

11:20:00.600 --> 11:20:04.740
mid so I'm entirely drawn away from that mid lane. Nice sun strikes coming in.

11:20:04.740 --> 11:20:08.880
Time and time again no one is finding these connections. Laurel has hit the 6th.

11:20:08.880 --> 11:20:12.280
She was gonna get this power run but they're gonna be ready for me. Both

11:20:12.280 --> 11:20:15.440
supports probably gonna TP to the mid lane to ensure that they do this 3v3

11:20:15.440 --> 11:20:18.600
instant TP from the both of them. They know how important this rune time it

11:20:18.600 --> 11:20:24.120
can be. Bro, get the sleep. They don't set up, they don't really have the angle

11:20:24.120 --> 11:20:27.920
though for me to connect the arrow here so it'll be fine but why can't

11:20:27.920 --> 11:20:30.920
and returns from the left of Carlos to step up, take that in, Vizrin, away.

11:20:31.920 --> 11:20:33.920
Tries for a random soundtrack there, a nice try.

11:20:33.920 --> 11:20:38.920
This sympathy, they're coming between the Rubik and the Hun, we're using their stunts at the same exact timing there.

11:20:38.920 --> 11:20:40.920
And they are keeping Lowell low.

11:20:40.920 --> 11:20:42.920
All's gonna have to be cautious.

11:20:42.920 --> 11:20:43.920
And a little bit.

11:20:43.920 --> 11:20:44.920
And the nice thing for this Invoker,

11:20:44.920 --> 11:20:47.920
Bottom, after Carlos, he's ever wrapped across back towards the bottom lane,

11:20:47.920 --> 11:20:48.920
get the bush back connected.

11:20:48.920 --> 11:20:49.920
That's it.

11:20:49.920 --> 11:20:51.920
Take on Jor, he kills Collapsus, he's left alone.

11:20:51.920 --> 11:20:55.920
Oh, Carlos is having a beautiful turn to this game as well too.

11:20:55.920 --> 11:21:00.120
There's multiple different catches. He gets the first blood at the start, and he's continued to shut down the last.

11:21:00.120 --> 11:21:04.320
So, the nice thing about the Invoker of this game, even though he's into the pangolk and the laning phase,

11:21:04.320 --> 11:21:05.620
he can always block his arrows.

11:21:05.620 --> 11:21:08.620
And he's always going to have this force spirit to be able to go through into our arrows.

11:21:08.620 --> 11:21:09.620
Night class.

11:21:10.120 --> 11:21:12.120
Now, don't find him over the rotation.

11:21:12.120 --> 11:21:15.820
Won't be able to dodge that swashbuckle coming in at the end there from LAL.

11:21:16.320 --> 11:21:19.320
Not only to get some kills themselves, Spirit, but without a doubt.

11:21:19.320 --> 11:21:22.120
You know, this bottom lane, late Tannick, he could not be happier.

11:21:22.120 --> 11:21:24.320
having a beautiful start to the lane.

11:21:24.320 --> 11:21:26.840
He's going to feel very safe now with the Ring of Health online.

11:21:26.840 --> 11:21:28.560
And now that he's got the level six,

11:21:28.560 --> 11:21:30.880
that extra sort of chance to threaten a kill,

11:21:30.880 --> 11:21:32.480
it becomes a little more complicated

11:21:32.480 --> 11:21:34.680
if Collapse wants to come down here and far.

11:21:36.480 --> 11:21:38.120
Level six done.

11:21:38.120 --> 11:21:40.080
Healing War down, back up the fold.

11:21:40.080 --> 11:21:41.400
He's chilling.

11:21:41.400 --> 11:21:42.960
This is going to be a good timing for the battle.

11:21:42.960 --> 11:21:44.560
And it is. A very good timing.

11:21:44.560 --> 11:21:47.080
And he isn't playing into a blade mail counter.

11:21:47.080 --> 11:21:48.360
A lot of times when I've seen these dugs,

11:21:48.360 --> 11:21:49.440
he ends up playing into a blade

11:21:49.440 --> 11:21:52.000
or something that's devastating in most situations.

11:21:52.000 --> 11:21:55.780
He has to watch out for the theme script in particular, but that's the biggest threat this game for him.

11:21:55.780 --> 11:22:01.420
Yeah, I think that the overall most annoying thing for the Jug is just Spirit's ability to tank up right.

11:22:01.420 --> 11:22:07.460
If it's a live stealer, this Darkseid gets to a point where the Omni Slashes isn't just not going to be doing much at all,

11:22:07.460 --> 11:22:12.300
it's going to feel kind of awkward because, again, we have to sort of go back to the fact that there is a reason, right,

11:22:12.300 --> 11:22:13.980
while we just don't see a lot of Jugs.

11:22:13.980 --> 11:22:16.900
Yeah, but the Tannix does like it, so we'll have to see what he can do with it.

11:22:16.900 --> 11:22:21.020
Spirit with an aggressive move here knowing the stacks are coming out here from nine class because they have this axe

11:22:21.020 --> 11:22:22.520
Laurel is gonna take away

11:22:22.520 --> 11:22:25.860
Probably the entirety of here with the next wash almost gets all of it

11:22:25.860 --> 11:22:28.980
So notice we'll be able to get that grab the notice a minute power root not me

11:22:29.460 --> 11:22:31.020
Nice to step over

11:22:31.020 --> 11:22:35.580
Be able to leap up to the high ground have to be careful there the three of them were ready to look towards him

11:22:35.820 --> 11:22:40.420
That's like a route sleeps a fourth spirit to prevent it from getting the kill on to the rune there

11:22:40.420 --> 11:22:42.580
So Laurel will have a reach in for the next move

11:22:42.580 --> 11:22:46.840
Yatoro was feeling some pressure at the start of the latent phase. Now that's

11:22:46.840 --> 11:22:49.580
been broken, but he will have a differential between him and the jug.

11:22:49.580 --> 11:22:54.100
I'm curious to see which one far faster, the life stealer radiance or a jug with the battle fury.

11:22:54.100 --> 11:22:57.580
I feel like he might be the jug. Might be the jug. But how quick he's gonna get this battle fury,

11:22:57.580 --> 11:23:01.220
Satanic? I think he might just be able to get ahead of Yatoro and stay ahead of it.

11:23:01.220 --> 11:23:04.420
We'll see. Which has been very important in this series. It's been the competition

11:23:04.420 --> 11:23:08.420
between the carries of who thinks they can outscale the other. We'll see who's

11:23:08.420 --> 11:23:10.720
What's right in this one is that the lifestealer is the jug.

11:23:11.420 --> 11:23:12.220
That's truly safe.

11:23:12.220 --> 11:23:14.420
So the Darkseer, we've seen a lot in this tournament.

11:23:14.420 --> 11:23:16.220
We start not in the finals, of course, but

11:23:16.720 --> 11:23:20.720
the power of this hero is pretty strong when you get into the teamfights in particular.

11:23:20.720 --> 11:23:24.120
A lot of these games have been revolved around these teamfight successes.

11:23:24.120 --> 11:23:27.820
So, see what happens when Collax gets in with these iron shells on the pango

11:23:27.820 --> 11:23:29.820
when he gets his dominator in some of these auras.

11:23:30.320 --> 11:23:31.020
If he goes away.

11:23:31.520 --> 11:23:33.120
I'm talking about the old playing selection.

11:23:33.420 --> 11:23:36.020
Were you surprised about going for the axe here for no sister?

11:23:36.020 --> 11:23:36.520
Do you see what I'm saying?

11:23:36.520 --> 11:23:37.020
No.

11:23:37.020 --> 11:23:39.100
They're going to get the set up into the call, into the sunscreen,

11:23:39.100 --> 11:23:41.180
got in the dunk, talking about a lot of notice.

11:23:41.180 --> 11:23:42.660
He's able to take the Toro down.

11:23:42.660 --> 11:23:45.340
But yeah, this axe pick, going for instead of the underlaw,

11:23:45.340 --> 11:23:46.980
which the panel felt might have also

11:23:46.980 --> 11:23:48.340
been a good pick in this situation.

11:23:48.340 --> 11:23:49.820
They want the BKB piercing disable.

11:23:49.820 --> 11:23:50.220
OK.

11:23:50.220 --> 11:23:50.940
Number one, right?

11:23:50.940 --> 11:23:53.340
I think that's where we're starting to see you need to have,

11:23:53.340 --> 11:23:56.220
at least one, maybe even two in multiple of these lineups.

11:23:56.220 --> 11:23:57.780
Because if you don't, they end up

11:23:57.780 --> 11:24:00.340
having this opportunity to just rage TP out, spin TP out,

11:24:00.340 --> 11:24:03.180
et cetera, or BKB TP out depending on which hero it is.

11:24:03.180 --> 11:24:05.100
So I like this pick quite a lot here.

11:24:05.100 --> 11:24:09.140
notice he has been amazing for this team when he gets off to a good start for

11:24:09.140 --> 11:24:12.940
vision he puts a lot of pressure on the map so right away two kills already in

11:24:12.940 --> 11:24:17.140
that lane that's really solid

11:24:17.140 --> 11:24:20.940
telekinesis into the cold snap he's taking heavy damage it definitely fast comes in he's gone

11:24:20.940 --> 11:24:25.220
he supports the callus again breaking every single time around this mid it's

11:24:25.220 --> 11:24:28.460
such a dangerous area at the map vision they always bring the numbers

11:24:28.460 --> 11:24:31.620
they'll get the nightmare set up into the hour and return air spirit trying to

11:24:31.620 --> 11:24:34.820
take down jacalus and they will get him but they still have to be careful

11:24:34.820 --> 11:24:40.060
Because notice, he's swung round over to the mid as well, and they can't push for anything more here, Spirit.

11:24:40.060 --> 11:24:43.360
I love how we see both teams just the speed that they're looking to play at.

11:24:43.360 --> 11:24:46.660
Both can play super fast, both can play these slow paces.

11:24:46.660 --> 11:24:52.760
I like even notice the swinging over, sure he doesn't do anything, but just getting the potential to get involved with his team.

11:24:53.560 --> 11:24:58.620
And these two carries? Who plays better in a fast-paced situation? The Jug or the Life Stealer?

11:24:59.360 --> 11:25:02.620
Just on paper, I would say the Life Stealer, but who knows nowadays.

11:25:02.620 --> 11:25:06.020
Let's see what Santana can do with this kind of start because this battle fury is gonna come out

11:25:06.020 --> 11:25:11.100
Yeah, pretty much now it pretty much done so ten minutes also battle fury here from Satanic on top of the treads

11:25:11.100 --> 11:25:13.900
And they've slowed down your Toro now twice so that battle theory

11:25:13.900 --> 11:25:19.140
He is absolutely gonna have that faster farm pace in comparison than your Toro and do have to look at the buff ups

11:25:19.140 --> 11:25:23.140
Right. Yes, let's see what he's gonna have the lucky shot procs that are gonna give him the same armory

11:25:23.140 --> 11:25:24.020
He's gonna have the iron shell

11:25:24.020 --> 11:25:27.700
But this job is gonna have a lack ready in a lot of these fights and a lack ready with all these flash

11:25:27.740 --> 11:25:29.740
It's pretty terrifying if he does get a connection

11:25:32.620 --> 11:25:36.620
Good opener here right now for vision. A 1k lead for them.

11:25:37.620 --> 11:25:40.620
The palace also potentially finding this creep too.

11:25:41.620 --> 11:25:46.620
Extra money for him, so kills the dominator creep off the Darkseer off plus 100 for the hoodwink.

11:25:47.620 --> 11:25:50.620
And yeah, look at that pace of timing. Level 9 as well.

11:25:51.620 --> 11:25:52.620
He's gonna farm so quickly.

11:25:52.620 --> 11:25:55.620
And they've got stacks already prepped for him, if I'm not mistaken.

11:25:55.620 --> 11:25:57.620
At least a couple of them all over the place.

11:25:57.620 --> 11:26:02.620
They're going to catch him again in the mid-court though.

11:26:02.620 --> 11:26:09.620
He's going to be more careful a couple of times now, but between 9th glass and no one, they just have a 100 to 0 to him.

11:26:09.620 --> 11:26:12.620
It's a scary part of the map for the pango right now.

11:26:12.620 --> 11:26:14.620
Laro, he's getting hurt pretty bad.

11:26:14.620 --> 11:26:16.620
These supports from vision, they're breaking him quite a bit here.

11:26:16.620 --> 11:26:23.620
Usually we see Spirit be the ones to make that move around Laro to get him back in, but these first 12 minutes, they're making the moves to enable no one.

11:26:23.620 --> 11:26:28.960
Net worth, he's now surpassed that pago and he's got this meteor hammer so he's going to go to little disadvantage nicely.

11:26:28.960 --> 11:26:36.800
I mean, again, not many looks to bore us the room but a massive burst comes through there, the Sun Strike and the Sharp Shooter at the same time takes not many out

11:26:36.800 --> 11:26:41.240
and ensures that vision is going to be able to secure that amplified damage ring pick up here for no one.

11:26:41.240 --> 11:26:47.760
Spirit, they'll bring Lowell and collapse back over to at least take down the Carlos in return but again, here in their spirit they're getting supports,

11:26:47.760 --> 11:26:50.640
overall vision coming out consistently in these trades.

11:26:50.640 --> 11:26:54.420
Some outplays coming out from supports right now on the side of vision in comparison to Spirit.

11:26:54.420 --> 11:26:57.940
See how they want to look to get together now? Rude does have fiend's grip available.

11:26:57.940 --> 11:27:02.020
See if they do want to look to punish the jug with Titanic, they're already in a safe position.

11:27:02.020 --> 11:27:05.420
They want to get a tower. They want to have easier access into this jungle at this point.

11:27:06.640 --> 11:27:10.580
We noticed he's going to have a blink pretty soon though, so they definitely need to accelerate

11:27:10.580 --> 11:27:12.500
the fact that they go for this, because notice,

11:27:12.500 --> 11:27:16.020
with a blink, this game can go for solo kills without blade milk because he's got Sunstrike.

11:27:16.020 --> 11:27:20.540
He can blink, he can blink call, and then the Sunstrike follow-up might just be enough in a lot of situations.

11:27:20.540 --> 11:27:26.840
And now no one, Biederhammer finished, he's actually finished off the whole tower with the two, and he's smoking, he's getting involved.

11:27:26.840 --> 11:27:30.640
I mean, Rune Law, we're on the hunt, but vision, they're ready to turn and hunt them every time.

11:27:30.980 --> 11:27:40.600
Tornado into the Sun Strike down, onto walls, the Bano try with Rift, but Nitecloth have a wraparound, finish him off there with the help of D'Gonis, and indeed get that steal, Lawl.

11:27:40.600 --> 11:27:46.440
He's gonna jump back into Gryffindor with a shield crash, bring in Noah Dell over to Swashbrook, and the backcube down onto the two, and get the two kills.

11:27:46.440 --> 11:27:49.640
He's going to try and stab his ground with a Fiat script at the start, but he will not succeed!

11:27:49.640 --> 11:27:51.740
Collapse! Getting the triple kill!

11:27:51.740 --> 11:27:54.840
Sigtanik, he chased Collapse down.

11:27:54.840 --> 11:27:57.040
Collapse is sort of teasing him around with Sigtanik.

11:27:57.040 --> 11:27:59.840
I am sure he's going to start to build up, Sigtanik.

11:27:59.840 --> 11:28:04.440
With the Omnisnash already used, Sigtanik doesn't really have anything left in the tank to threaten Collapse.

11:28:04.440 --> 11:28:06.140
But what a turn-up there for Collapse.

11:28:06.140 --> 11:28:09.240
Gets him bolted in the action, picks up a triple kill.

11:28:09.240 --> 11:28:12.340
Night class, when he stole the Fiat script at the start, he didn't have mana.

11:28:12.340 --> 11:28:14.940
He's actually asking a team, and he's like, somebody give me something.

11:28:14.940 --> 11:28:18.260
I believe someone passed him a Lotus, but it was too late at that point.

11:28:18.260 --> 11:28:21.900
The Darkseer comes in and gets the cleanup of Big Connection for collapse.

11:28:21.900 --> 11:28:23.180
Top Network for his team now.

11:28:23.180 --> 11:28:24.100
And just pretty quickly.

11:28:24.100 --> 11:28:26.540
Awareness there from Spirit to commit for that play

11:28:26.540 --> 11:28:30.540
after pretty much the entirety of the combo was dropped down onto the bane.

11:28:30.540 --> 11:28:32.500
You know, Rue takes it all at the start.

11:28:32.500 --> 11:28:33.620
Yeah.

11:28:33.620 --> 11:28:34.460
Vision?

11:28:34.460 --> 11:28:35.380
Blink is done.

11:28:35.380 --> 11:28:37.540
They're looking to get aggressive here.

11:28:37.540 --> 11:28:39.620
As you said, the Sunstrike connection is ready.

11:28:39.620 --> 11:28:42.460
Probably be enough if he just catches anybody.

11:28:42.460 --> 11:28:44.900
A call, a Sun Strike and a Fade Park should do it.

11:28:46.620 --> 11:28:50.220
And there we have it. They get the call, pushback, Sun Strike into a dunk.

11:28:50.820 --> 11:28:54.220
Notice ready to start, just kind of leading the plays.

11:28:54.220 --> 11:28:56.980
He is going to be everywhere looking for action.

11:28:56.980 --> 11:28:58.980
He will not be slowing down any time soon.

11:28:59.540 --> 11:29:02.460
And it's that big forward here. They get the sleep out of the two colors.

11:29:02.460 --> 11:29:04.180
It's their follow-up. They're going to use the ball.

11:29:04.980 --> 11:29:07.940
There's going to be any help. Notice, watching from the low ground here.

11:29:07.940 --> 11:29:09.620
Long of night class is going to get the call.

11:29:09.620 --> 11:29:11.580
He jumps the backline, fights the bait,

11:29:11.580 --> 11:29:14.020
Sunstrike in, roos out.

11:29:14.020 --> 11:29:16.420
Notice, they're start backing away,

11:29:16.420 --> 11:29:18.660
but indeed there is no threat to the life

11:29:18.660 --> 11:29:19.740
of this axe right now.

11:29:19.740 --> 11:29:23.620
They struggle to tackle the beef of this map.

11:29:23.620 --> 11:29:26.100
Hisians early game, pretty beautiful so far here.

11:29:26.100 --> 11:29:28.100
The axe, as we said, noticed when he gets

11:29:28.100 --> 11:29:30.460
these type of games, he ends up running the show

11:29:30.460 --> 11:29:31.580
pretty effectively.

11:29:31.580 --> 11:29:32.660
Four and zero now for him.

11:29:32.660 --> 11:29:34.700
He's got the connection to look for all these skills.

11:29:34.700 --> 11:29:35.540
They've got eye on so slowly.

11:29:35.540 --> 11:29:36.900
I mean, that's such a lovely steal, right?

11:29:36.900 --> 11:29:38.820
When you're playing Disaggressive with the axe.

11:29:38.820 --> 11:29:42.020
If you keep the shell onto him, I mean, already he was getting kills in these calls.

11:29:42.020 --> 11:29:48.220
Now with a stolen iron shell being applied to him, he's pretty much guaranteed to get kills very quickly after the initial job.

11:29:48.220 --> 11:29:52.420
Spirit, reading this move, bringing the numbers, collapse in the area level 12.

11:29:52.420 --> 11:29:57.220
Yeah, no chance of playing careful. Very much sense is that that sort of presence of the pan goes a little bit of a bait.

11:29:57.220 --> 11:30:02.320
They've got a ward on the side there. I believe they saw the Darkseer running in for a second, so we'll be able to back away.

11:30:02.320 --> 11:30:05.420
But still putting the press rod, they're going to scout the stacks as well.

11:30:05.420 --> 11:30:07.620
They can steal these very quickly here just with iron shell.

11:30:07.620 --> 11:30:12.620
On the flip side, you see the aggression coming out from Spirit. They're looking for no one.

11:30:12.620 --> 11:30:13.620
He's able to distance himself.

11:30:13.620 --> 11:30:14.620
Sneaky arrow!

11:30:14.620 --> 11:30:17.620
That's a very nice arrow there for not me.

11:30:17.620 --> 11:30:21.620
The one that no one was not prepared for at all was maybe looking elsewhere for Sun Strikes.

11:30:21.620 --> 11:30:24.620
Absolutely. And he did the animation cancel too.

11:30:24.620 --> 11:30:28.620
There's ways that you can do it as these marauders. If you leap and you throw it instantly in these type of ways,

11:30:28.620 --> 11:30:31.620
you can actually get that canceled animation. What a play.

11:30:34.620 --> 11:30:36.620
So did I go to the next room?

11:30:36.620 --> 11:30:40.260
How's the Radiance? The Radiance is done and Yatoro now has access into these

11:30:40.260 --> 11:30:44.740
ancients as well too so catching back up here towards that jugs the 1400 behind

11:30:44.740 --> 11:30:47.900
Well me attempting to get some info here under the cover of the Moonlight Shadow

11:30:47.900 --> 11:30:50.220
Don't see him

11:30:50.220 --> 11:30:52.220
Yatoro getting involved wrapping behind

11:30:52.220 --> 11:30:55.980
Ready looks off to War's notice but notice is already away nine glass

11:30:55.980 --> 11:30:57.980
He'll be left with that here

11:30:57.980 --> 11:30:58.980
Falling roll

11:30:58.980 --> 11:30:59.980
What is that?

11:31:01.980 --> 11:31:02.980
Spirit?

11:31:02.980 --> 11:31:03.980
They're accelerating

11:31:03.980 --> 11:31:04.980
They should be able to match

11:31:04.980 --> 11:31:07.900
take away this tier one here with your tour I swing it over the net. Oh that is

11:31:07.900 --> 11:31:12.940
interesting 16 minutes in a jam has been purchased up for Decolas. That's one of the

11:31:12.940 --> 11:31:16.540
other ones you've seen throughout the entire team this TI. I think I see a lot

11:31:16.540 --> 11:31:20.780
purchase pre-20 minutes but it's 16 very early so they're really looking to

11:31:20.780 --> 11:31:23.740
control this triangle area they're feeling like Spirit does have a lot of

11:31:23.740 --> 11:31:26.980
vision on the map and they're not wrong. And they're ready to go for action.

11:31:26.980 --> 11:31:30.900
As I said I think we're gonna pretty much see this just back to back for

11:31:30.900 --> 11:31:37.820
Oh, yeah, just every single opportunity running its spirit trying to set up these place. They want to play it fast here vision

11:31:38.820 --> 11:31:40.820
Notice this that's though

11:31:40.820 --> 11:31:48.360
But his eyes on the brew will make the jump Sunstrike said your story thinks about trying to help with the potential and best

11:31:48.360 --> 11:31:51.280
But can't quite get close enough in time has to save himself

11:31:52.260 --> 11:31:57.080
We're getting given such a good game five year back and forth kill the lead was going for vision

11:31:57.080 --> 11:32:07.720
That's an easy omnislash there. Leap won't save you, not me. He's gone a freebie, handed to Satanic as he is continuing to have a beautiful time on this bottom side of the map.

11:32:07.720 --> 11:32:19.860
2-0-2, blow this farm. You really could not ask for more. And this is going to be the real test right for the Juggernaut. We don't see it a lot, but he's having this good of a start. Surely this has got to bode well for him.

11:32:19.860 --> 11:32:25.940
Surely there is going to be tankiness that has to deal with right the dark seer the wall can be annoying because it can't eat a lot of these

11:32:25.940 --> 11:32:27.140
Omni slash hits as well

11:32:27.140 --> 11:32:30.740
I mean, I think that's why he's going for the aggression right we're seeing with the build battle fury

11:32:30.820 --> 11:32:35.020
Manta and then straight for the MKB wants to ensure that when he does come in with the omni slash

11:32:35.700 --> 11:32:41.220
He's killing these units killing these heroes and the blink right afterwards right so you can keep the stacks without the blade form works

11:32:41.220 --> 11:32:46.020
Right you blink you keep blade form with the omni slash before using it very powerful very potent

11:32:46.020 --> 11:32:51.020
This has to be careful. Can get unlucky with the bounces if there is a Dominator, there's going to be wall illusions.

11:32:52.020 --> 11:32:58.020
They're looking to try to punish here, so Spirit trying to get aggressive here, they've got the Blink on Laurel, they've got Fiend's Grip at the ready.

11:33:01.020 --> 11:33:06.020
If they find the Coloss, that would be a massive pickup because he has to get that gem.

11:33:07.020 --> 11:33:12.020
He's going to show class, let's get a bit of a setup on to Collapse, Laurel. Remember the rolling thunder, 9 class?

11:33:12.020 --> 11:33:16.480
9th class gonna try and juke everything that they're throwing at him. Just just leave him

11:33:16.480 --> 11:33:19.180
I think you call us to say hi. There's no way I'm joining you man

11:33:19.180 --> 11:33:23.000
I've got the gem absolutely not especially when there's four heroes showing up for that play from spirit

11:33:23.000 --> 11:33:26.560
It do cause even being extra careful. I mean he last he passed the gem over the courier

11:33:26.560 --> 11:33:31.500
Okay, he's gonna continue to chase so indeed the carless why you know whilst he might die

11:33:32.220 --> 11:33:37.420
We're able to make sure that that gem does not switch hands into spirits a big break

11:33:37.420 --> 11:33:41.900
Look it's on the south side all the way off the map. He's taking that gem all the way back to the base

11:33:41.900 --> 11:33:46.860
So very smart from Duke Carlos to not lose it that would have been devastating if he did get all the fed

11:33:47.500 --> 11:33:51.500
Spirit still making this move will manage to take the tier one tower away. So at least

11:33:52.140 --> 11:33:57.580
Making progress in limiting areas of map that the jugs going to be able to farm notice gets a call

11:33:57.980 --> 11:34:02.620
It's going to be another pick up there that satanic is able to get involved in so short

11:34:02.620 --> 11:34:06.140
They lose the tower but satanic's game just continues to flourish

11:34:06.140 --> 11:34:11.300
And this is an interesting pivot because we don't see this as accelerated in most games.

11:34:11.300 --> 11:34:13.140
No one's going for the BKB himself.

11:34:13.140 --> 11:34:16.180
Since he's playing into that pango, since he's playing to a lot of this magic damage in

11:34:16.180 --> 11:34:20.140
teamfights, he wants to be able to actually have his body in the fights at times.

11:34:20.140 --> 11:34:23.980
Can still be dangerous for the invoker at times, but this is a cool approach because

11:34:23.980 --> 11:34:27.620
you do need BKBs as we're seeing teamfights is everything in this Grand Finals.

11:34:27.620 --> 11:34:30.860
And I like to change up what you're going to see from Yotara as well, right?

11:34:30.860 --> 11:34:33.700
He is queuing up the S and Y, so I mean we don't always see the carries pick

11:34:33.700 --> 11:34:36.100
up, but in this game for us Axe, you need the beef in it.

11:34:36.100 --> 11:34:43.620
against the cold against potential on these sessions as well yet Toro needs to be as tanky as possible to survive through those sort of offensive plays

11:34:43.620 --> 11:34:47.500
Old school item build that we used to see a lot versus this accident. You see these matchups

11:34:50.100 --> 11:34:52.100
Terms of that farm speed though asked

11:34:52.620 --> 11:34:57.140
predicted it is going to be tough for you Toro to keep up with this juggernaut

11:34:57.780 --> 11:35:02.620
Especially just due to the fact that satanic is getting involved in action a two zero three

11:35:02.620 --> 11:35:08.200
to sort of what's been brought down to this bottom lane and at this point I mean

11:35:08.200 --> 11:35:11.560
the spirit how do you look at identifying and dealing with this juggernaut

11:35:11.560 --> 11:35:15.160
what's the move you are going to look to make or at this point can you not really

11:35:15.160 --> 11:35:17.980
do you have to look elsewhere to try and get that lead back in your favor are

11:35:17.980 --> 11:35:20.980
you still can you fiend script right shirts up right now but that's going to

11:35:20.980 --> 11:35:24.200
be the big one so it's eyes on nine class to get the saves nine class so

11:35:24.200 --> 11:35:27.080
this is cool I was wondering which one he's gonna go for if it's gonna be

11:35:27.080 --> 11:35:30.040
the blink or the shard so the blink allows it to close the gap versus

11:35:30.040 --> 11:35:34.240
to Bane and stop the fiend. The shard would allow him to flip and move someone out of position

11:35:34.240 --> 11:35:38.000
but the grip will continue so he goes through the blink instead for the most aggressive

11:35:38.000 --> 11:35:41.240
type of play. And it's not only the fiend's grip, right? If he gets rolling thunder there

11:35:41.240 --> 11:35:45.920
is other spells that he can go for as well too. Pretty excellent stales for him. I've

11:35:45.920 --> 11:35:48.760
actually grabbed this game. I'd really like the fact that he went for the blink

11:35:48.760 --> 11:35:55.000
this game. He gets rolling thunder too, just insane amount of control and it's

11:35:55.000 --> 11:35:58.200
really just about that positioning to stop the fiend's grip. So Spirit, looking

11:35:58.200 --> 11:36:03.160
to get aggressive again they do want to slow down satanics progression here

11:36:03.400 --> 11:36:10.400
he's huge kill if they can find him but satanics in a pretty safe location very

11:36:10.400 --> 11:36:14.040
close to the MKB and that's when the move comes becomes quite scary right if

11:36:14.040 --> 11:36:17.560
you don't get the grab you don't kill him if he gets an omni slasher off you

11:36:17.560 --> 11:36:21.280
know 20 or so minutes in with an MKB on top of the man's a battle theory that

11:36:21.280 --> 11:36:24.240
omni slash is gonna hunt it's gonna kill most of targets maybe not your

11:36:24.240 --> 11:36:27.040
Toro because he is this tanky at the moment but the rest of them perhaps

11:36:27.040 --> 11:36:30.080
So it will be Severs picked up, Nightclas.

11:36:30.080 --> 11:36:32.640
Navi's with him in the trees.

11:36:32.640 --> 11:36:33.760
Not a bad grabber tool.

11:36:33.760 --> 11:36:35.440
Taking Nightclas out of the action

11:36:35.440 --> 11:36:38.880
means that there's less likely of sort of these next 30 seconds

11:36:38.880 --> 11:36:42.760
where Fission's going to be running at Spirit.

11:36:42.760 --> 11:36:45.600
Spirit's ease of execution feels a little easier right now.

11:36:45.600 --> 11:36:47.360
With the teamfight that comes in from the Darkseer,

11:36:47.360 --> 11:36:48.560
a lot of the teamfight, it's going

11:36:48.560 --> 11:36:51.160
to be reliant on notice to no one at this point in the game.

11:36:51.160 --> 11:36:53.160
So we'll see if they can get this connection.

11:36:53.160 --> 11:36:55.160
Notice? Look at Arrowed.

11:37:04.160 --> 11:37:09.160
They're trying to poke the BKB, but he doesn't use it. He has Heal and War to build the reset.

11:37:09.160 --> 11:37:14.160
Might look to strike back here. Spirit backing up, resetting, continuing this farm.

11:37:15.160 --> 11:37:19.160
This is exactly what you want for a grand final zone. Back and neck.

11:37:19.160 --> 11:37:21.820
And, I mean does Satanic want to get involved in this play?

11:37:22.920 --> 11:37:24.760
He does have level 18, it's a big omni-

11:37:24.760 --> 11:37:25.860
I would imagine so.

11:37:27.060 --> 11:37:32.260
If they can get the jump themselves vision and allow Satanic to just step up, get that ult off,

11:37:32.260 --> 11:37:35.160
as long as he doesn't get too unlucky with the bounces,

11:37:35.160 --> 11:37:38.460
there's a potential for him to do a lot of damage at the moment.

11:37:38.460 --> 11:37:42.660
So it looks like, I mean maybe they do this type of play where they put Satanic in a risky position

11:37:42.660 --> 11:37:44.060
and be like, oh yeah, go for him here.

11:37:44.060 --> 11:37:47.360
And then that's where 9th class can go for the blink, cancel of the fiend,

11:37:47.360 --> 11:37:52.320
get the potential steal and turn it around because if he gets fiends grip 2 right versus yatoro

11:37:52.320 --> 11:37:58.000
it's one of the best spells of control that he can get. It would be pretty massive if he can't get that one here.

11:38:01.120 --> 11:38:04.400
Four spirits pushing out one lane, dominator pushing out another.

11:38:04.400 --> 11:38:06.880
Neither team gonna run into each other for these next few moments.

11:38:07.920 --> 11:38:12.560
Collapse by the shard, blink for teamfight, going back for the lotus.

11:38:12.560 --> 11:38:15.680
More and more answers they are looking for to do with that omni slash of course.

11:38:17.360 --> 11:38:19.360
Laurel, just gonna go for the agonims.

11:38:20.360 --> 11:38:21.360
Standard kill for him.

11:38:29.360 --> 11:38:33.360
Getting closer and closer, not be if he's able to find this Eul's in these next few moments too.

11:38:33.360 --> 11:38:37.360
Can be very annoying for notice. He has DKB, but if you don't use it immediately,

11:38:37.360 --> 11:38:39.360
it's gonna stop your initiation in a lot of these moves.

11:38:39.360 --> 11:38:49.640
I think that's pretty good information with these Moonlight Shadows. It sort of allows

11:38:49.640 --> 11:38:55.000
them to breathe a sigh of relief every time he's sort of able to get eyes on Lotus, knowing

11:38:55.000 --> 11:39:00.000
that that axe is not currently smoked up himself trying to make moves against Spirit.

11:39:00.000 --> 11:39:03.000
Yeah, that's nice. He saw both of them there, so knows that they aren't making aggressive

11:39:03.000 --> 11:39:06.720
moves at the moment here. 9-class very close to having this Shard down finished

11:39:06.720 --> 11:39:11.200
up as well after the blink dagger, so we'll have multiple ways to potentially save.

11:39:11.200 --> 11:39:15.880
No one buys the shard as well too, so starting to play with that cross farm to push these

11:39:15.880 --> 11:39:19.640
waves up, they gave him the jammer, so feeling protected, so he doesn't, he knows if there's

11:39:19.640 --> 11:39:22.040
any of these sentries placed down for him to play aggressively.

11:39:22.040 --> 11:39:28.760
I think for a connection here, they have a kind of triple BKB timing on the side of

11:39:28.760 --> 11:39:34.560
vision right now with Nautist, and Voker, and the built-in one on Satanic for a

11:39:34.560 --> 11:39:35.560
catch.

11:39:35.560 --> 11:39:42.920
in the trees. He's stepping up. He's inching very far forward. Doesn't quite come under vision.

11:39:45.000 --> 11:39:48.840
Spirit, they're waiting for their next timing. The Agadims is almost done for Laurel.

11:39:50.520 --> 11:39:54.280
And I think Yatoru, I think he might not want to show up honestly until he kind of has these

11:39:54.280 --> 11:39:59.160
next couple of items done. I see at least. Yes, I see. Honestly, maybe even the acts. It's just

11:40:00.120 --> 11:40:04.440
it's just a question of when his timing is going to hit a point where he's ready to tackle

11:40:04.440 --> 11:40:05.440
with a jug.

11:40:05.440 --> 11:40:07.640
Notice is spending a lot of time moving around.

11:40:07.640 --> 11:40:11.120
He is 6-0 in this game, but he is spending a lot of time just moving.

11:40:11.120 --> 11:40:12.680
You're starting to see that differential in gold.

11:40:12.680 --> 11:40:15.080
He's got the Dominator farming for him, but look at that Darkseer.

11:40:15.080 --> 11:40:17.080
He is starting to pull ahead massively.

11:40:17.080 --> 11:40:20.960
He's going to be able to farm that Lotus Orb, so I feel like Spirit, they're getting

11:40:20.960 --> 11:40:24.840
away with some nice greed and some extra answers to view with the jug and to view

11:40:24.840 --> 11:40:32.000
with the damage that comes out from vision.

11:40:32.000 --> 11:40:33.000
They're just sitting back farming.

11:40:33.000 --> 11:40:35.000
As he said, waiting for that next timing.

11:40:35.880 --> 11:40:37.880
I think, yeah, your Toro wants time.

11:40:39.600 --> 11:40:44.080
Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if he's not on the AC, the AGs, and the NKB before I fight.

11:40:44.880 --> 11:40:45.880
That's what I'm going on.

11:40:45.880 --> 11:40:47.880
It is! I think it'll show up before that.

11:40:48.880 --> 11:40:50.880
We'll see, yeah, those creeps could be tensing.

11:40:50.880 --> 11:40:52.280
They can't. Got to get that money.

11:40:52.680 --> 11:40:54.680
AC and the AGs in particular, for sure.

11:40:55.640 --> 11:40:56.720
Could be a nice one to wait for.

11:40:56.720 --> 11:40:58.720
Vru, halfway toward the agonims.

11:40:58.720 --> 11:41:01.800
So, is gonna potentially be able to get to that point where he has this AGs

11:41:01.800 --> 11:41:03.800
means because it can be very annoying to deal with.

11:41:07.300 --> 11:41:10.700
It's a lift, it'll cancel one, but good luck covering for the other two.

11:41:10.700 --> 11:41:12.900
You have to get a tornado connection potentially.

11:41:12.900 --> 11:41:14.900
It can be hard to deal with at times.

11:41:15.900 --> 11:41:18.400
Just a question as well, we're on game five here,

11:41:18.400 --> 11:41:20.600
of the Grand Finals of the International.

11:41:20.600 --> 11:41:22.800
Both teams have been pretty good so far in the series

11:41:22.800 --> 11:41:24.700
at making constant aggressive plays.

11:41:24.700 --> 11:41:27.300
Now that we're here in the game five,

11:41:27.300 --> 11:41:29.100
do you think we are going to see both teams

11:41:29.100 --> 11:41:33.980
lean on that the more sort of safer passive style like are they really going to be able to keep this pressure up

11:41:34.780 --> 11:41:37.900
at this point of the tournament? I don't think so both teams have been playing super aggressive

11:41:37.900 --> 11:41:41.340
they're keeping it up I think we're going to see them keep it up there we go and I wonder which team

11:41:41.340 --> 11:41:46.060
which team is thinking about do we outscale I think spirit might be along that line that

11:41:46.060 --> 11:41:49.900
they think that they do outscale I think they might feel that right the jug is just

11:41:49.900 --> 11:41:53.980
a bit of a limited hero what he can do at times and on the slash at the end of the day you

11:41:53.980 --> 11:41:58.780
are kind of trusting in the rng or they know where satanic is gets the blink away

11:41:58.780 --> 11:42:05.140
It was such a huge catch, but indeed a step ahead, they will not manage to close the gap and find the grip.

11:42:08.180 --> 11:42:12.380
And X-Farm continues to have that separation of 3k lead over the Life Stealer.

11:42:13.680 --> 11:42:17.780
It's gonna potentially be able to get this butterfly before there's any realms of that MKB.

11:42:17.780 --> 11:42:21.180
Might have to slot it in before the aggadims on the Life Stealer.

11:42:22.780 --> 11:42:25.080
Yeah, I'll be interested to know what he's gonna have to.

11:42:25.080 --> 11:42:28.180
Yeah, because as you say, for the match, you want it for the iTunes, but at the same time...

11:42:28.780 --> 11:42:33.260
The axe does so much, and just being able to avoid what the dog wants to do to you.

11:42:33.260 --> 11:42:36.380
Sure, you're not going to be able to necessarily cop through that butterfly,

11:42:36.380 --> 11:42:38.380
but you're going to have a pretty high chance of surviving.

11:42:38.860 --> 11:42:41.660
And the fact also, have to point this out, he is going butterfly.

11:42:41.660 --> 11:42:44.020
He's got some pretty good items for a Darkseer wall.

11:42:44.300 --> 11:42:47.660
That wall illusion is going to be pretty scary if they don't address it early on in the fights.

11:42:48.260 --> 11:42:50.540
No one? Looking for Rue.

11:42:50.540 --> 11:42:51.660
He's got backup coming in.

11:42:54.060 --> 11:42:55.740
Do Spirit want to send anything over here?

11:42:55.740 --> 11:43:02.020
Toro is looking to come across to the fight arrow to get the arrow connected on to nine class tutorial

11:43:02.020 --> 11:43:06.460
Be able to quickly take out the roofing notice if you get the cool one for route. What's that one?

11:43:08.420 --> 11:43:10.420
Yes, you've done it

11:43:10.420 --> 11:43:11.920
Sorry, he's done it

11:43:11.920 --> 11:43:15.820
You can chase down a bit fight the laps and even wore it out to ask how to quickly punch it

11:43:15.820 --> 11:43:19.940
They get the connects it up all the time does it go back to get the obvious that put the about the illusory

11:43:19.940 --> 11:43:27.140
This is the struggle with the oddness that sometimes the bouts just don't hit right.

11:43:27.140 --> 11:43:30.140
Lyle survives and collapsed with the body force.

11:43:30.140 --> 11:43:31.940
He's trying to see if they can do something about no one.

11:43:31.940 --> 11:43:32.940
He has to go and swap the legs.

11:43:32.940 --> 11:43:34.440
He's got a BKB to survive.

11:43:35.740 --> 11:43:37.140
Oh man, the moments.

11:43:37.640 --> 11:43:41.540
One of the reasons why Jart can sometimes be a bit of a risk boss.

11:43:41.540 --> 11:43:45.440
You press the old and the old just don't hit the way you wanted to hit.

11:43:45.440 --> 11:43:47.240
And they have multiple ways to do that as well too.

11:43:47.240 --> 11:43:52.120
with the Dominator crew from collapse with the wall they have two different ways to disengage and break that

11:43:52.920 --> 11:43:58.280
50 seconds that's gonna allow you to close that gap in memory. It is indeed, yeah straight up in the wall at the Roche pit

11:43:59.640 --> 11:44:01.480
Well, this

11:44:01.480 --> 11:44:03.480
It's gonna get set up on it by not me

11:44:04.280 --> 11:44:08.280
What the mark there? Still no collapse, definitely Jason with the sheath of scab, we'll get him up on the cliff

11:44:09.000 --> 11:44:12.040
He's gonna be caught up there, we'll turn and get the push back onto the two of them

11:44:12.280 --> 11:44:16.920
But he will not be getting down alive as the Carlos killed off on the cliff

11:44:17.240 --> 11:44:24.240
Spirit getting a lot of momentum now at this point, getting the Aegis as well, 2 for good overall.

11:44:24.240 --> 11:44:29.240
And have to point out some other things out, right? Besides the top Omni Slash, having this massive deficit,

11:44:29.240 --> 11:44:34.240
Life Sealer as a hero, as the game progresses further and further, they're getting killed, they're getting creep kills.

11:44:34.240 --> 11:44:38.240
His HP is going up massively. He has 400, I mean that's the biggest HP as well.

11:44:38.240 --> 11:44:43.240
As I said, especially with this build, the Omni, the SMY, the AC, Yatora is tanking up perfectly.

11:44:43.240 --> 11:44:48.040
So honestly, even if you do get fortunate with the only slash bounces, you might live.

11:44:48.040 --> 11:44:50.180
You're not guaranteed to kill him.

11:44:50.180 --> 11:44:52.640
This life stealer is going to survive.

11:44:52.640 --> 11:44:56.960
And I have more and more armor, more and more answers to with the Lotus, with the Shiba's

11:44:56.960 --> 11:45:00.400
reducing some of this damage too.

11:45:00.400 --> 11:45:01.560
Feeling concerned here, Vision.

11:45:01.560 --> 11:45:04.720
Have to get some extra connections, have to look for something with Lotus.

11:45:04.720 --> 11:45:06.080
He's been trying, as he said.

11:45:06.080 --> 11:45:09.960
He's seven and zero on this axe, but it feels like it's been a quiet last 10

11:45:09.960 --> 11:45:12.280
minutes of him finding some of these big four kills.

11:45:12.280 --> 11:45:17.280
Spirit just playing around it, just playing for the farm, playing to get Yatora to this position.

11:45:19.280 --> 11:45:23.280
Drew, he said, the agonist is very close for him as well too for that extra follow up.

11:45:23.280 --> 11:45:24.280
One.

11:45:26.280 --> 11:45:29.280
In the line class, stepping up on this top lane.

11:45:29.280 --> 11:45:32.280
Those two, they cannot set up onto Yatora.

11:45:32.280 --> 11:45:36.280
Trying to go for Yatora has to have this axe around here for no justin.

11:45:36.280 --> 11:45:40.280
Even then, with the tank, with the tank as he is,

11:45:40.280 --> 11:45:44.120
They're very unlikely to kill him in a call, and especially twice.

11:45:44.120 --> 11:45:50.560
There's three minutes of ages on Yatoro and it's going to be interesting to see what vision do about these moments.

11:45:50.560 --> 11:45:54.800
They need the hacks, it feels like. Invoker in particular, no one, he needs to get this finished up.

11:45:54.800 --> 11:45:57.920
They need that extra bit of control to just burst these targets down.

11:45:58.920 --> 11:46:00.120
He does have it finished.

11:46:00.920 --> 11:46:01.640
Okay.

11:46:02.760 --> 11:46:04.120
Not the center here, no one.

11:46:04.120 --> 11:46:09.120
They're going to try and chase on 4 at the same time, collapsed.

11:46:09.120 --> 11:46:11.620
Running down to Carlos, he tries to bounce away with a shot,

11:46:11.620 --> 11:46:14.120
but he's caught beneath the cliff.

11:46:14.120 --> 11:46:17.620
They always get a catch at the same time, it feels like, on the side of spirit.

11:46:17.620 --> 11:46:20.120
Baster now, picked up for Laurel 2.

11:46:20.120 --> 11:46:22.120
Mr. Titanic, he wants to try and look for a fight.

11:46:22.120 --> 11:46:24.120
He's got this plane, has to butterfly.

11:46:24.120 --> 11:46:25.620
Omni Slash is back up.

11:46:25.620 --> 11:46:28.620
He's got to get a big connection, and they have to do a tutorial twice still.

11:46:28.620 --> 11:46:32.120
It's 3 minutes still on this Aegis, so it's not an easy option to go for.

11:46:32.120 --> 11:46:35.540
9 class wants better steals here at this point. Yes, sir

11:46:35.540 --> 11:46:40.240
It's not a bad one to be honest with you to be able to close that gap or even distance a life for some of his course

11:46:42.800 --> 11:46:46.020
Over the top of the man something strong as he

11:46:47.200 --> 11:46:49.200
He's around the stands here. It's our

11:46:49.600 --> 11:46:55.440
It does feel like a later and later it goes this life stealer is going to be more and more problematic for the damage

11:46:55.440 --> 11:47:00.520
I think so it's really just the job who's going to be dealing that damage for him as the game does continue to progress

11:47:00.520 --> 11:47:09.520
No one, almost level 20, so almost has that 20 challenge for the Chaos Meteors, but he's been quiet this game too, just some sun strikes, you don't like two for him.

11:47:09.520 --> 11:47:21.520
I mean, they do have a massive sort of combo to throw down on the life stealer, right? If they get this call, end of the Invoker combo, inter-Satanic getting in with a big ultimate, big Omni Slash, obviously they have to watch out for the bang.

11:47:21.520 --> 11:47:22.520
They have to watch out for the sleep saver.

11:47:22.520 --> 11:47:25.100
He's gonna be there to disrupt that sort of play.

11:47:25.100 --> 11:47:27.120
So at the same time once they go for this,

11:47:27.120 --> 11:47:29.560
they're gonna look towards the supports, right?

11:47:29.560 --> 11:47:31.080
They're gonna try and find the pain,

11:47:31.080 --> 11:47:32.680
take them out to start the fight, collapse.

11:47:32.680 --> 11:47:34.680
And it's found, he understands the protection

11:47:34.680 --> 11:47:36.120
from a lot of the odyssey opponents.

11:47:36.120 --> 11:47:36.960
And collapse.

11:47:36.960 --> 11:47:38.120
And that's allowed to survive.

11:47:38.120 --> 11:47:40.840
He gets the surge, he'll push like it's still there, though.

11:47:40.840 --> 11:47:42.800
He's got to get up to the rock for this, collapse.

11:47:42.800 --> 11:47:45.760
He does stick up, the battle hunger finishes him off.

11:47:45.760 --> 11:47:47.480
See, they get away on the side of this.

11:47:47.480 --> 11:47:49.560
Back onto the tier two, they should be fine.

11:47:49.560 --> 11:47:51.360
They take three hits, they get the claw.

11:47:51.360 --> 11:47:52.360
but they bring him down.

11:47:54.040 --> 11:47:55.640
Collapse now gone for a minute.

11:47:56.600 --> 11:47:57.640
Well, this item is Asian.

11:47:57.640 --> 11:47:59.000
Well, that's really clever, right?

11:47:59.000 --> 11:47:59.760
He's going to this end.

11:47:59.760 --> 11:48:01.360
He almost survives all of it there.

11:48:01.360 --> 11:48:02.440
Smoke up vision.

11:48:02.440 --> 11:48:05.280
Looking to take advantage of perhaps that Aegis timing out.

11:48:05.280 --> 11:48:06.200
It's still 77.

11:48:06.200 --> 11:48:07.320
I mean, they have to go.

11:48:07.320 --> 11:48:09.000
Now, the fact that there is no darks here,

11:48:09.000 --> 11:48:10.360
they've got the numbers advantage.

11:48:10.360 --> 11:48:11.640
Sure, they don't have the ult,

11:48:11.640 --> 11:48:14.040
but even so, if they're able to get some sort of lockdown

11:48:14.040 --> 11:48:15.120
and St. Tank's able to blink in,

11:48:15.120 --> 11:48:16.080
come in with the right clicks,

11:48:16.080 --> 11:48:17.480
he still does a lot of damage

11:48:17.480 --> 11:48:19.200
without relying on the Omni Sash alone.

11:48:19.200 --> 11:48:20.720
And they know there's no rolling thunder as well too,

11:48:20.720 --> 11:48:25.220
so they feel like they have that teamfight advantage at the moment, even without that Chandra Nautzgut.

11:48:25.720 --> 11:48:30.220
Axe, BKB is on cooldown though, so has to be careful how far forward he goes.

11:48:30.720 --> 11:48:33.720
Taurak, he's responding soon, 20 seconds.

11:48:33.720 --> 11:48:37.220
Everyone should be other than Taurak. They don't want to try and take the slide, Sheila, down twice.

11:48:37.720 --> 11:48:39.720
Seeing the backline, they've got a work down.

11:48:39.720 --> 11:48:43.720
I'm constantly looking at him, but they're going to have to get the vacuum here with the stolen vacuum onto the two of them, sets up for the call.

11:48:43.720 --> 11:48:45.220
The bird through roof.

11:48:45.220 --> 11:48:48.720
Taurak, he's ready to look for the counter play, jumps in aggressively with the infest.

11:48:48.720 --> 11:48:50.100
It's a Satanic!

11:48:50.100 --> 11:48:53.840
Satanic will lay down the healing wall, but he immediately swipes that away from him!

11:48:53.840 --> 11:48:55.340
Nine Class gets the blink off!

11:48:55.340 --> 11:48:57.340
They will manage to escape vision.

11:48:57.340 --> 11:48:58.540
A quick retreat.

11:48:58.540 --> 11:49:00.540
Almost two kills they're able to grab there.

11:49:00.540 --> 11:49:04.040
The vacuum catches the tune, but the quick leap from the Marana ends up protecting him.

11:49:04.040 --> 11:49:06.440
And in the Festeal now, that he does have so...

11:49:06.440 --> 11:49:08.940
A further save that Nine Class can potentially do here.

11:49:08.940 --> 11:49:10.940
And that could come in pretty clutch.

11:49:10.940 --> 11:49:11.820
It definitely can.

11:49:11.820 --> 11:49:17.120
Just sort of have that extra sort of health to allow Satanic to maybe live through some sort of jump that Spirit get onto him

11:49:17.120 --> 11:49:20.940
Buy him time to turn get the ults off. I'm gonna have it back up in 10 seconds

11:49:20.940 --> 11:49:25.580
It'll put the jug it went from 2k to 3200. That's a massive amount

11:49:26.140 --> 11:49:30.220
He does need some HP it does feel like can get first pretty quickly in these fights at panic

11:49:30.740 --> 11:49:32.740
All aggression with this build

11:49:35.300 --> 11:49:37.300
It's alright

11:49:37.300 --> 11:49:40.820
Ready to make the moves here off the back of larl and no rules there

11:49:40.820 --> 11:49:42.580
They get the catch underneath the tier 2 shower

11:49:42.580 --> 11:49:46.660
They'll be able to take him out before the backup arrives, but backup is on the way larl

11:49:46.660 --> 11:49:48.140
Thank you

11:49:48.140 --> 11:49:50.540
Ready to lead guitar into the action

11:49:51.060 --> 11:49:54.020
This might cancel off guard here infest is already been used

11:49:54.260 --> 11:49:59.180
They have put the only such that from from satanic a ready to get Torah to call us fixed

11:49:59.180 --> 11:50:03.540
He knows this is coming. He actually throws it the stiller in the back lines. He's expecting a rapper out here. It looks like

11:50:05.540 --> 11:50:08.180
Looking forward here perhaps to break the small borrow

11:50:09.900 --> 11:50:13.860
Thinking about committing but into the triangle a bit scary without the five men

11:50:13.860 --> 11:50:19.860
Mission? How much longer do they want to stick around here as the Banes responding? They're

11:50:19.860 --> 11:50:27.140
still going to look for more, notice? Yet to die on this axe, godlike for him by the way.

11:50:27.140 --> 11:50:32.940
Pretty been doing everything you can so far. Stagnated for a slight moment in that

11:50:32.940 --> 11:50:41.060
earlier stages, but immediately afterwards, find these dreamcatches. So close on the

11:50:41.060 --> 11:50:43.060
I don't know if it's here.

11:50:43.060 --> 11:50:46.700
Jugg continued to keep slightly ahead, only slight this time though.

11:50:46.700 --> 11:50:48.780
I mean that's the thing, the Toros catching up.

11:50:48.780 --> 11:50:53.220
And I think when the difference is only slight, it does mean that your Toro is feeling pretty

11:50:53.220 --> 11:50:54.980
comfortable in this matchup.

11:50:54.980 --> 11:50:59.020
Ready to start working into that MKB.

11:50:59.020 --> 11:51:00.020
Life stealer.

11:51:00.020 --> 11:51:03.460
It's going to be a very difficult one for the Jugg to cut down.

11:51:03.460 --> 11:51:06.460
As you say nowadays, with the agonims, with the way you can play, with the

11:51:06.460 --> 11:51:10.060
infest, it's a lot harder for the Jugg to win in this matchup.

11:51:10.060 --> 11:51:14.560
He's gonna sell his phase boots. He's gonna have the MK timing. They're gonna smoke and look for a fight now on the side of spirit.

11:51:15.860 --> 11:51:19.260
Perhaps looking to catch vision off guard. The damage that's gonna be from this lifestealer.

11:51:19.760 --> 11:51:24.560
It could just kill the juggernaut if he's not caught. If he's not just gonna have a save in particular from one of his allies.

11:51:25.060 --> 11:51:28.360
I mean, Knight class, he still has the infest. So, eyes on Knight class to protect this jug.

11:51:29.560 --> 11:51:34.560
He has to do a lot. Not only just sort of come in with the infest play, but also try and get one of these big steels in the fight.

11:51:34.560 --> 11:51:40.860
or even stop this Bane right because the Bane the fiends with the agonins it is there

11:51:40.860 --> 11:51:42.860
I believe they did see it as well

11:51:42.860 --> 11:51:44.260
Swift blink is picked up

11:51:44.260 --> 11:51:47.100
and that's you Swift blink on top of the play form

11:51:47.100 --> 11:51:50.620
getting in there making the clean jump getting the ults off

11:51:50.620 --> 11:51:55.100
it will hit hard if this jug is huge if he's a lacqueried as well too right if he

11:51:55.100 --> 11:51:58.580
sees the target it might just insta kill before the save can come out even versus

11:51:58.580 --> 11:51:59.580
a tanky lifestealer

11:51:59.580 --> 11:52:03.100
but it's about getting that jump and trying to find it in a fashion that spirit and

11:52:03.100 --> 11:52:04.260
not able to disrupt it

11:52:04.260 --> 11:52:15.760
So, I mean, you know, we know that the neutral item that broke the jug doesn't exist anymore, but Profit Pendulum is also a pretty good one versus all these flags, so we'll have to see if that comes into play, because Laurel has it, and it's Laurel.

11:52:15.760 --> 11:52:18.760
The two ones that they want to burst have a way to mitigate that damage.

11:52:18.760 --> 11:52:20.760
I mean, they're both so incredibly tanky.

11:52:23.760 --> 11:52:25.760
Looking for a fight themselves.

11:52:26.760 --> 11:52:27.760
Vision.

11:52:27.760 --> 11:52:31.360
Oh word, in class, unload, just up off the river, still low.

11:52:31.360 --> 11:52:32.860
Rowan tries to use in the tree line.

11:52:32.860 --> 11:52:35.360
Rolling Thunder at the ready, they'll look to chase down the mid.

11:52:35.360 --> 11:52:37.860
If they can get their hands on those, they'll get the call.

11:52:37.860 --> 11:52:38.860
Perfected!

11:52:38.860 --> 11:52:41.360
Not gonna do what they wanted to do there, but they can stay ten.

11:52:41.360 --> 11:52:42.360
It's gonna back up with a play.

11:52:42.360 --> 11:52:43.360
Rip the grips there!

11:52:43.360 --> 11:52:44.360
They're locking it up!

11:52:44.360 --> 11:52:45.360
Get down!

11:52:45.360 --> 11:52:46.360
Come on!

11:52:46.360 --> 11:52:47.360
Despect the call!

11:52:47.360 --> 11:52:48.360
Ben, for 90 seconds!

11:52:48.360 --> 11:52:49.860
Ben's ready to dive on!

11:52:49.860 --> 11:52:50.860
Come on!

11:52:50.860 --> 11:52:51.860
Nice last pull, he's under the tower!

11:52:51.860 --> 11:52:53.360
No one tries to hold his awfully!

11:52:53.360 --> 11:52:55.360
He's completely surrounded!

11:52:55.360 --> 11:52:56.860
He's dead!

11:52:56.860 --> 11:53:01.500
Oh my god, oh it collapsed! You thought stir the Lotus as he hopped out!

11:53:01.500 --> 11:53:06.700
He's gone straight with that, and he's still cleaning up, collapsed, he's not finished his job yet,

11:53:06.700 --> 11:53:10.220
he's looking over to notice, ready to chase down the axe.

11:53:10.780 --> 11:53:12.620
How did he notice to get it out of this one?

11:53:12.620 --> 11:53:14.780
He's got vacuum as well too, he's got notice.

11:53:14.780 --> 11:53:16.540
Collapsed playing with his moves!

11:53:16.540 --> 11:53:22.620
Alright, collapsed is playing out of his mind in this game as clutch as possible.

11:53:22.620 --> 11:53:30.820
He really is and I just fit the game five grand finals joke for I'm getting some similar vibes as we've seen in the past

11:53:30.820 --> 11:53:34.380
I'm sure all the few viewers are to the fans as well in the stands

11:53:35.200 --> 11:53:38.340
Seeing the reminiscing thing that we saw from on a last year

11:53:39.340 --> 11:53:43.300
We'll see again. It was so quick that he got that lotus on to him just straight in

11:53:44.020 --> 11:53:49.260
They want to try and turn and fight. It was a split. I mean he got it like split second

11:53:49.260 --> 11:53:55.640
It really was holy crap collapse and then the beanscript the hard counter versus that job no way to stop it so fast

11:53:57.560 --> 11:54:02.540
For now he is all of their damage really satanic with him gone at the start of any fight

11:54:02.540 --> 11:54:08.520
And it only it's a small goal lead, but it feels like a very commanding move that spirit was able to hit where you can

11:54:08.520 --> 11:54:11.520
See the pressure satanic. He started to feel it absolutely

11:54:11.520 --> 11:54:15.340
I mean in the carry to carry matchup you can just tell that your Torah right now

11:54:15.340 --> 11:54:20.620
He is so comfortable so confident. He knows the matchup. He's not afraid of a juggernaut

11:54:20.620 --> 11:54:24.420
He knows exactly where he used to be with his eye in progression

11:54:24.420 --> 11:54:29.640
And right now this life stealer at a point where it's so hard for the jug to take him down

11:54:30.380 --> 11:54:34.220
Who do you obviously like with all this armor that they have to Lotus on Laurel?

11:54:34.220 --> 11:54:37.500
Do they just have so many different ways to protect each other so much armor?

11:54:37.840 --> 11:54:41.200
If the armor on some of these heroes it feels like for just the jogging pitch

11:54:41.200 --> 11:54:46.660
Yeah, no one so difficult for satanic. He can't get this connection. He can't get the damage either this invoker

11:54:46.660 --> 11:54:51.440
We've seen it falter in these later stages of this tournament. No one is having a tough time in this mid game

11:54:54.240 --> 11:54:58.020
Roche now the option it's our all will get tossed in the pit from the Roche

11:55:00.000 --> 11:55:03.940
They're gonna quickly bring this down the roar will dissolve them for a second and we'll get scouted

11:55:07.400 --> 11:55:09.640
We even want to fight over here dangerous

11:55:11.200 --> 11:55:16.200
They've got to sit back, let this go the way of spirit, this rush.

11:55:19.200 --> 11:55:23.200
You can do an itemize, right? What do you do for vision to counter this?

11:55:23.200 --> 11:55:33.200
Looking for the Lankan's and Jug. I mean, this is the thing right as a Jug is why it feels like you need so many items to make this hero work, but you've only got six slots like the rest of them.

11:55:33.200 --> 11:55:37.360
And there are counters versus him. There's multiple different ones now with these low disorbs

11:55:37.700 --> 11:55:41.160
Even if potentially they have just like ghost scepters, right? Because he doesn't even have a nullifier

11:55:41.160 --> 11:55:44.520
I mean they didn't even have a ghost scepter. They could just eat the whole omnislash as well too.

11:55:44.520 --> 11:55:48.960
He just eats so much. He wants to leak his fury, wants a nullifier, wants a BKB

11:55:48.960 --> 11:55:54.240
And then at that point he probably wants more damage as well. So many things that Satanic has got to try and address

11:55:54.880 --> 11:56:00.880
In so little time and under immense pressure here against the lead the spirit currently have here in this game five.

11:56:00.880 --> 11:56:06.760
Flaps just keeps dunking new items out too. He has a hex. He has 7,000 gold after these fights too.

11:56:08.120 --> 11:56:14.740
Treating themselves to an agonimus on the Murana now, level 18 spirit with this Aegis gold toward the high ground. Four minutes left on it.

11:56:19.040 --> 11:56:23.600
Okay, they've got a nullifier at the least here. So the axe now has at least the answer versus the A on disc.

11:56:23.600 --> 11:56:25.960
And I think Flaps needs to be a higher priority target for them.

11:56:25.960 --> 11:56:31.180
Although these modices are gonna be problematic, I mean, Claps have been running sort of literal

11:56:31.180 --> 11:56:33.680
circles around them in these team fights, sir.

11:56:33.680 --> 11:56:35.840
There's you.

11:56:35.840 --> 11:56:37.840
Setting up so much.

11:56:37.840 --> 11:56:40.680
And he still hasn't decided what item he does want to go for yet.

11:56:40.680 --> 11:56:44.080
He's been killing up Wind Waker, a couple different ones as well, to Claps, thinking

11:56:44.080 --> 11:56:45.080
about it still.

11:56:45.080 --> 11:56:49.160
I mean, Wind Waker could be another one that just really throws another issue the

11:56:49.160 --> 11:56:51.160
way Joth wants to play.

11:56:51.160 --> 11:56:54.040
He's in, ready for the dive, they have to catch no one, they've been put

11:56:54.040 --> 11:56:56.720
They've nipped up the nine glass and an infest to keep no one safe.

11:56:56.720 --> 11:56:58.720
They had to put the BKB here, no one.

11:56:58.720 --> 11:57:00.720
Turn, the hex out onto Yotara.

11:57:00.720 --> 11:57:03.720
Zyntany jumping in doesn't want to commit with the Omni Slash, though.

11:57:04.360 --> 11:57:07.640
If the Omni Slash is there, he could get put into a dangerous spot and get killed,

11:57:07.640 --> 11:57:09.640
so he knows how careful he needs to be.

11:57:11.120 --> 11:57:13.440
Nine glass. We'll get nailed by the arrow.

11:57:13.440 --> 11:57:14.440
It'll be okay.

11:57:17.680 --> 11:57:18.320
Spirip.

11:57:19.200 --> 11:57:22.880
Don't need to sort of make the jump too aggressive, leave for the high ground.

11:57:22.880 --> 11:57:25.380
There's still many minutes there with the Aegis on Yatora.

11:57:25.380 --> 11:57:29.880
I think they're starting to feel that power that they have to as the game progresses to this point.

11:57:29.880 --> 11:57:32.680
There's much easier ways for them to jump and take these fights.

11:57:32.680 --> 11:57:37.580
It's very difficult to see how vision took this 40-chest kind of angle, how they have to execute the fight.

11:57:37.580 --> 11:57:40.380
They have to get a successful Omni Slash, or the fight's just over.

11:57:40.380 --> 11:57:43.680
But as we said, there's so many different angles, so many different answers.

11:57:46.180 --> 11:57:48.880
And Yatora, on top of just hanging up with the armor, right?

11:57:48.880 --> 11:57:51.300
The longer and longer it goes, just watch that HP pull.

11:57:51.300 --> 11:57:53.400
623 now, max HP.

11:57:57.200 --> 11:57:57.900
That's alright.

11:57:58.600 --> 11:58:00.200
Ready to finish up the tier three.

11:58:02.600 --> 11:58:04.300
Now, are they gonna push him back?

11:58:05.300 --> 11:58:06.000
Come on.

11:58:06.900 --> 11:58:08.280
The hex into the meatball.

11:58:08.480 --> 11:58:09.280
Not enough.

11:58:10.080 --> 11:58:11.340
Somebody wasted the fail of Al.

11:58:11.340 --> 11:58:15.080
Take some decent damage running along the meteor, but has to infest the protection is there.

11:58:15.080 --> 11:58:17.140
I mean, Lyle could be ready to jump straight back in with him.

11:58:17.140 --> 11:58:21.140
They get this creep wave, push forward, conspiracy and opportunity, they might just dive again.

11:58:21.140 --> 11:58:28.140
No one's BKB, back on cooldown in 5 seconds with the A on this, down for 30, can get caught and killed, has to put very careful.

11:58:33.140 --> 11:58:35.140
Back onto the barrage, now it's this wall.

11:58:35.140 --> 11:58:42.140
Get the call, the other dragon in, decently deep, but again, the damage to threaten him, even the walls just doesn't seem to be there for him.

11:58:42.140 --> 11:58:46.140
He gets instantly lotus as well too, so you can tell Statenix, I can't army slash him, what am I supposed to do?

11:58:47.140 --> 11:58:55.140
Spirit. Ages still for 90 seconds. They're backing up looking to maximize on the map, get some of that extra farm. Not me looking for the level 20.

11:58:55.140 --> 11:58:59.140
Getting is getting close to that. It's a lot more burst damage. They'll be able to get from that as well.

11:59:01.140 --> 11:59:08.140
See a fission. Do they want to go for some type of sneaky play outside? It feels like it feels almost necessary to catch spirit off guard now at this point.

11:59:08.140 --> 11:59:11.140
A head on fight feels so difficult for the side of vision.

11:59:11.140 --> 11:59:14.140
Full of Bissell on Yuzora. Oh God.

11:59:14.140 --> 11:59:20.420
on. They keep getting these massive items. They've collapsed the side of 21st to go for

11:59:20.420 --> 11:59:23.860
yet. Okay, he gets a BKB and then he buys it and he's going for the overwhelming blink

11:59:23.860 --> 11:59:28.740
as well afterwards. So, good luck getting that nullifier on him now since he has a BKB.

11:59:28.740 --> 11:59:32.140
Kanked it, dispelled that Aeon disk either, so looking for more answers. Yeah, they're

11:59:32.140 --> 11:59:35.140
answering pretty much everything we do see that vision is trying to answer their answers

11:59:35.140 --> 11:59:38.180
with. And especially when you're ahead and you

11:59:38.180 --> 11:59:41.820
go for this sort of overwhelming blink, Sheba's guard build, it's just so good

11:59:41.820 --> 11:59:44.980
at jumping in and forcing out these early reactions, right?

11:59:44.980 --> 11:59:47.780
Making the enemy team feel that they have to press these BKBs

11:59:47.780 --> 11:59:50.080
before they're able to sort of start the fight on their own accord.

11:59:50.080 --> 11:59:52.780
And it's going to mitigate the majority of the damage

11:59:52.780 --> 11:59:55.320
that can come out from the Jug 2, which is most of the damage

11:59:55.320 --> 11:59:57.380
that we've been seeing in this one.

11:59:57.380 --> 12:00:00.540
Maybe a bit extreme, but maybe you've got to be thinking

12:00:00.540 --> 12:00:01.680
about a rapier on this Jug.

12:00:01.680 --> 12:00:04.580
Just to go for that blink-on-the-stash play,

12:00:04.580 --> 12:00:07.220
hope that it connects, hope that you get the bounces,

12:00:07.220 --> 12:00:09.720
because without something that extreme fog,

12:00:09.720 --> 12:00:11.280
I don't think they're doing the damage.

12:00:11.280 --> 12:00:12.900
It does feel like it's a life-threatening.

12:00:12.900 --> 12:00:18.000
If he goes for it right now, that would be the craziest inventory I've ever seen.

12:00:18.000 --> 12:00:20.620
He does go for that type of build, but it might be necessary.

12:00:20.620 --> 12:00:25.800
He could be thinking about it as a save for the moment, being he has Lincoln's Nullifier, PKB queued up.

12:00:25.800 --> 12:00:29.140
Another PKB pierced in disable, and you're tore out. The Abyssal has been picked up.

12:00:29.140 --> 12:00:30.800
He's starting to disassemble items here.

12:00:33.140 --> 12:00:36.420
That SNY that he had disassembled, now he has Casual Yasha.

12:00:36.420 --> 12:00:41.420
It's going to be selling the Talisman and he will be going for that crit and an M damage on the bottom side.

12:00:42.720 --> 12:00:45.420
Rosh. Still some time until it's going to be respawning.

12:00:45.420 --> 12:00:47.620
You're going to play careful spirit and they'll be waiting for the next Rosh.

12:00:47.620 --> 12:00:54.720
The question is, can Team Vision get out and try for a play here in these moments before Rosh is back up?

12:00:54.720 --> 12:00:56.920
They look to try here with the smoke.

12:00:56.920 --> 12:01:02.720
They have to. They have Wind Waker now, so Dukalis does have a hard save versus the Fiends Grip as well too.

12:01:02.720 --> 12:01:06.720
They don't have to rely on some, you know, clearing the illusions, getting a wild grip as well, too.

12:01:06.720 --> 12:01:09.720
They do have a way to stop it at the least, but he has to be alive for that.

12:01:14.220 --> 12:01:17.220
That smoke at the moment doesn't look like it's going to connect.

12:01:17.220 --> 12:01:17.720
Navi.

12:01:19.520 --> 12:01:21.220
Playing on the front lines here.

12:01:21.220 --> 12:01:23.720
Level 20's hit. He does have that extra burst damage now.

12:01:23.720 --> 12:01:25.220
Vision, they're already heading back.

12:01:25.220 --> 12:01:29.220
They could not find a chance to make a jump happen here.

12:01:29.220 --> 12:01:30.420
Noticed is not the...

12:01:30.420 --> 12:01:35.060
He's very deep. He's very far forward. He has some vision to play around here. He's getting pinged immediately.

12:01:35.060 --> 12:01:37.780
So it does seem like they are aware of his positioning at the moment.

12:01:41.220 --> 12:01:47.020
Scaling kills get continues to grow for spirit and provision. It has stagnated how much they are getting increased satanic.

12:01:47.020 --> 12:01:50.420
He's trying to think of what to buy. He's doing up the BKB. He doesn't need that.

12:01:50.420 --> 12:01:57.620
I don't mind the BKB. The BKB at least allows him to jump in and sort of not have to immediately panic with a blade fury on an omnistash right.

12:01:57.620 --> 12:02:03.020
should give them a bit of a window to jump in and just get some regular right clicks off and wait out sort of these

12:02:03.020 --> 12:02:05.860
Loathe assist before he goes to be on the side still risky

12:02:05.860 --> 12:02:11.620
Of course very likely that there's a kind of enough physical damage coming out from your Torah to sort of tackle him in the one-by-one

12:02:11.620 --> 12:02:16.060
When they're just right clicking each other and they have disables through a to write the abyssal the fiends grip

12:02:16.060 --> 12:02:19.380
I believe the bash are also on laurus and he's about to have abyssal as well too

12:02:19.380 --> 12:02:22.940
So multiple different ways if he does gold say any vision. They need this to go

12:02:22.940 --> 12:02:26.780
Wow, see what they can connect with no one. He has a lot of items

12:02:26.780 --> 12:02:31.300
It just hasn't been we have been able to see that damage that come out from because they just have the answers for in the kills

12:02:31.300 --> 12:02:32.940
Like they have to save

12:02:32.940 --> 12:02:37.660
If your Toro is able to find any sort of window to get the rage off to get the invest off

12:02:37.780 --> 12:02:43.420
Feels like the fight's pretty much gonna be over. They have to fully combo him down and it's so so difficult

12:02:44.860 --> 12:02:46.860
Execution much harder for vision

12:02:46.860 --> 12:02:52.860
He's still debating which build he wants to go for here.

12:02:52.860 --> 12:02:55.860
Refresher is the next one that he is thinking about.

12:02:55.860 --> 12:02:58.860
Always a good hero to have it.

12:02:58.860 --> 12:03:01.860
So, level 25 for Laurel.

12:03:01.860 --> 12:03:04.860
Lapsus hit that 25.

12:03:04.860 --> 12:03:07.860
And AoE Surge.

12:03:07.860 --> 12:03:10.860
They can zoom in and out of the fights and close up the gaps

12:03:10.860 --> 12:03:13.860
versus something like the Invoker, which he hates having.

12:03:13.860 --> 12:03:15.860
They're gonna go for it! They're gonna try!

12:03:15.860 --> 12:03:17.520
It's going to be the ninth and a five-sum-time.

12:03:17.520 --> 12:03:19.480
Beechbill comes out controlling the axe.

12:03:19.480 --> 12:03:22.680
They turn it, jumps in, he's looking at his two-foot behind the turret.

12:03:22.680 --> 12:03:25.920
They'll fight the chance to bring down the lifestealer.

12:03:25.920 --> 12:03:27.800
And now, Vision, they can try and clean up more.

12:03:27.800 --> 12:03:28.900
Notby's going to jump away.

12:03:28.900 --> 12:03:30.320
Stay turning hot, they're chasing him in the blink.

12:03:30.320 --> 12:03:34.360
He'll be held back by the ULVS, but the further grab there for Nightglass.

12:03:34.360 --> 12:03:36.560
Telekinesis onto Notby.

12:03:36.560 --> 12:03:38.120
To Carlos, they turn it to Nightglass.

12:03:38.120 --> 12:03:40.880
Jason falls, the stolen leaps are on the rubick.

12:03:40.880 --> 12:03:42.160
Notby's gone.

12:03:42.160 --> 12:03:45.160
Vision, they find exactly what they need.

12:03:45.160 --> 12:03:50.160
A fight gone wrong there, and this Grand Finals may have truly slipped away from them,

12:03:50.160 --> 12:03:55.160
but they get the grab, they get the catch, and they're able to bring down Yatoro!

12:03:55.160 --> 12:04:02.160
Perfect execution of Chainstun. Literally perfect. I believe the lift catches him toward the end of things there,

12:04:02.160 --> 12:04:05.160
and he gets brought down beautifully done, because we did see the sleep,

12:04:05.160 --> 12:04:09.160
but it's a fraction of things that it actually ends up stopping there,

12:04:09.160 --> 12:04:11.160
and they can't prevent the rest of the damage coming through.

12:04:11.160 --> 12:04:14.160
And talk to Push, that was crazy execution from Vision.

12:04:15.160 --> 12:04:23.160
45 seconds now, Itoro is dead. He felt like he couldn't die, but they will be able to prove that wrong on vision and Roche, it is funny.

12:04:24.160 --> 12:04:27.160
Might be able to back up and go for it here with the damage they didn't panic at.

12:04:27.160 --> 12:04:29.160
They're trying to set the get squad kills out of the bed, Satanic.

12:04:30.160 --> 12:04:31.160
Jumping in.

12:04:33.160 --> 12:04:38.160
That was, I can't believe they get that kill with the team all around him as well too, 20 seconds.

12:04:38.160 --> 12:04:42.160
We can try to feel Nietzsche on the play here, but he gets caught by the vacuum immediately forced.

12:04:42.160 --> 12:04:44.880
The eon is out of him.

12:04:44.880 --> 12:04:46.520
That was very risky there from no one.

12:04:46.520 --> 12:04:49.760
He gets his aeon disk popped, so for the next fight he won't have that ready.

12:04:49.760 --> 12:04:56.680
They might be able to kill it in time, but they take it down so quickly.

12:04:56.680 --> 12:04:59.080
I think they've got this roast easily.

12:04:59.080 --> 12:05:02.240
They are not going to be able to get anywhere close to this.

12:05:02.240 --> 12:05:04.920
This roast dies so quickly here with the unpa-fight damage.

12:05:04.920 --> 12:05:08.360
On satanic, Aegis is going to be there in his hands for the next fight.

12:05:08.360 --> 12:05:13.360
coming back with an absolutely fighting charm says off the back of that tier 2 defense.

12:05:13.360 --> 12:05:17.360
That was absolutely insane. Able to find the connection where he wasn't lotus finally

12:05:17.360 --> 12:05:19.360
and now the potential two army slashes. They're there.

12:05:19.360 --> 12:05:21.360
Maybe he will be able to find these angles as well.

12:05:21.360 --> 12:05:23.360
Spirit looking for the fight.

12:05:23.360 --> 12:05:26.360
We don't want vision to be able to set up with that again.

12:05:32.360 --> 12:05:35.360
Looks longer on the amp damage and we'll be going down.

12:05:38.360 --> 12:05:44.360
Timeless bubble, for the invoker, long disables that he can put out here.

12:05:47.360 --> 12:05:50.360
Bringing in both the mids and the bottom lane here, vision.

12:05:50.360 --> 12:05:52.360
Just with that kill, it went from 1.

12:05:52.360 --> 12:05:57.360
I thought it was an 83 down to the 58%, so I'm massive when they're able to swing into here.

12:05:57.360 --> 12:06:00.360
Having this Aegis now for a Satanic, it's got this second life.

12:06:03.360 --> 12:06:06.360
Such a difficult move to execute.

12:06:06.360 --> 12:06:09.440
They do it here. Can they do it again?

12:06:09.440 --> 12:06:13.440
Much harder when it comes to making that plague

12:06:13.440 --> 12:06:16.840
into the hands, into the base of Spirit themselves.

12:06:16.840 --> 12:06:20.880
Borrow immediately gets loaded stuff. They're anticipating that they're still

12:06:20.880 --> 12:06:21.760
standing out there.

12:06:21.760 --> 12:06:24.400
The banner all the way in the back lines for these creeps.

12:06:24.400 --> 12:06:27.800
These creeps are gonna do some luck here.

12:06:27.800 --> 12:06:31.840
With your Lactrity too. Surge

12:06:31.840 --> 12:06:34.840
to go for the banner. He will just take it away.

12:06:34.840 --> 12:07:00.200
I mean, you're not wrong, especially when you've kind of already got like eight items,

12:07:00.200 --> 12:07:01.200
eight slots built.

12:07:01.200 --> 12:07:05.200
He wants that next one to be able to stand and just right click first of that lifestealer.

12:07:05.200 --> 12:07:06.600
Show him down with the bashes.

12:07:06.600 --> 12:07:08.200
I mean, makes sense, right? But...

12:07:08.200 --> 12:07:11.400
Let's see if that works. He did go for the nullifier in between to deal with these Aeon discs,

12:07:11.400 --> 12:07:13.700
to deal with some of these other annoying items.

12:07:13.700 --> 12:07:15.700
Moonlight out from Spirit.

12:07:15.700 --> 12:07:17.800
Heading out, trying to sneak forward.

12:07:17.800 --> 12:07:19.200
Laps.

12:07:19.200 --> 12:07:20.900
Get the call, now punch him in. Look at the call.

12:07:20.900 --> 12:07:22.900
Pick up the damage! It was the only slash! Come back!

12:07:22.900 --> 12:07:23.900
And behind him, gone!

12:07:23.900 --> 12:07:25.400
Couldn't have the BKB in his inventory.

12:07:25.400 --> 12:07:28.200
They still want to fight, you throw a gets in, takes down 9-class.

12:07:28.200 --> 12:07:32.600
Lowe with the roll forward, looks to one, stays tight, he's got the blade theory, they'll turn for no one instead.

12:07:32.600 --> 12:07:35.720
He's got the angle to keep him for the draw, allowing the throw to close on full.

12:07:35.720 --> 12:07:39.320
He's there, Nose is just back over the grip, stay low till one Nose is down.

12:07:39.320 --> 12:07:43.640
The radio doesn't even want to know, pushes the bag, stays tight, he's called by the abyssal.

12:07:43.640 --> 12:07:47.000
He'll turn, try it out right, the grip is still going!

12:07:47.000 --> 12:07:51.640
But the back keeps going, and for the stop to it, no one finding a toy, he's still full!

12:07:51.640 --> 12:07:55.640
And stays tight, he's running for no one, full for the refresh, and I know all these sides,

12:07:55.640 --> 12:07:57.640
It's being taken by the illusions.

12:07:57.640 --> 12:08:00.140
But played down off to the side after it collapsed.

12:08:00.140 --> 12:08:03.140
Will chase out those who will be focused by Lyle.

12:08:03.140 --> 12:08:05.640
They've taken the ages out of his hands here on St Tannick.

12:08:05.640 --> 12:08:07.640
Byback coming in from both of them.

12:08:07.640 --> 12:08:09.140
The three of them collapsed through the door.

12:08:09.140 --> 12:08:10.640
They want to go for round two.

12:08:10.640 --> 12:08:12.640
St Tannick is trying to play through and run.

12:08:12.640 --> 12:08:14.640
They play to get a catch in.

12:08:14.640 --> 12:08:15.140
Lyle?

12:08:15.140 --> 12:08:16.640
Make it out while chasing.

12:08:16.640 --> 12:08:18.640
Oh, regardless.

12:08:18.640 --> 12:08:20.640
They get found in the tree line.

12:08:20.640 --> 12:08:24.140
But he may have just drawn their attention away long enough

12:08:24.140 --> 12:08:30.460
to allow satanic to run. Look at all these buybacks. The stolen grip for a second gets

12:08:30.460 --> 12:08:34.380
hampered. The secondary omnicellas I think ended up bouncing only onto the Galoozons on the

12:08:34.380 --> 12:08:38.620
roll illusions but still look at the buybacks. What that extra chaos in the fight where they just

12:08:38.620 --> 12:08:43.980
weren't able to even with the buybacks find an opportunity to lock down satanic and get that

12:08:43.980 --> 12:08:48.940
crucial kill. Satanic survives, continues to sit on an absolute mountain of wealth there.

12:08:48.940 --> 12:08:52.860
9k gold on the Dugganore. He has got many options. And they're gonna go from here.

12:08:52.860 --> 12:08:53.820
Here, they split catchable.

12:08:53.820 --> 12:08:54.780
The barricade's going off.

12:08:54.780 --> 12:08:55.280
Lack of equity.

12:08:55.280 --> 12:08:56.620
But there's the jump forward, Static.

12:08:56.620 --> 12:08:57.420
The day's been fast.

12:08:57.420 --> 12:08:57.920
Look at that.

12:08:57.920 --> 12:08:59.860
The infest will fire up in a safety.

12:08:59.860 --> 12:09:01.320
The rest of the team's trying to get over the help

12:09:01.320 --> 12:09:05.100
panel at the initial to hold back Static and run.

12:09:05.100 --> 12:09:08.180
The laps should be able to be there with his presence.

12:09:08.180 --> 12:09:09.180
The key to Toro's safe.

12:09:09.180 --> 12:09:10.500
I mean, they may be even thinking about trying

12:09:10.500 --> 12:09:11.820
to turn back over the wall to Jonx.

12:09:11.820 --> 12:09:14.420
Static heals up back to full with the healing wall.

12:09:14.420 --> 12:09:15.780
My god, that was so scary there.

12:09:15.780 --> 12:09:16.900
If he does have omnicytes, they

12:09:16.900 --> 12:09:17.620
can go for the kill.

12:09:17.620 --> 12:09:19.620
But you're Toro, knowing that they don't just

12:09:19.620 --> 12:09:21.060
get that infest, he does survive.

12:09:21.060 --> 12:09:22.620
But if Briskie comes in, I mean,

12:09:22.620 --> 12:09:27.140
Are they really gonna try and stay on the offensive was they don't have three buybacks

12:09:27.140 --> 12:09:32.420
And it's gonna be pretty crazy six minutes here where they have to be so so careful

12:09:32.860 --> 12:09:37.500
They're seeing though that tutorial isn't as safe as he anticipated that he was from earlier

12:09:37.500 --> 12:09:40.340
These jumps from vision is catching them off guard a couple times here

12:09:40.860 --> 12:09:42.860
to be off guard to

12:09:44.860 --> 12:09:46.500
Looking for more windbreaker pickups

12:09:46.500 --> 12:09:51.500
But as he said there is that nullifier that he did pick up this is seemed like the clutch answer for the side of vision

12:09:51.500 --> 12:09:56.920
Titanic having this one now going through this abyssal and stamp his ground. They're spoken. They're looking for this

12:09:56.920 --> 12:10:01.660
They have a win condition they really do or oh if they kill your Torah that the game's over

12:10:02.580 --> 12:10:05.860
Very very likely so without the light stealer for two minutes

12:10:05.860 --> 12:10:11.820
That should be enough time for team vision to close this one up so your Torah has to be protected here at all costs

12:10:11.980 --> 12:10:16.140
By spirit they can't be like gonna get caught. Not me. He's found

12:10:16.140 --> 12:10:21.620
We have the most great boss builds. I think I've ever seen on these carries

12:10:21.620 --> 12:10:27.100
There's both completely six slotted. Yeah, you tore it with what 5k HP over the arm that turns on

12:10:27.100 --> 12:10:29.680
Thanks to the fact that he's picked up the satanic on top of it

12:10:29.700 --> 12:10:31.700
He's just looking to tank up

12:10:31.860 --> 12:10:36.300
Has to survive through these calls if he does get caught by the jumps of notice

12:10:36.300 --> 12:10:41.820
Which is very likely with how well notices has been playing he has been finding these jumps has been and no one

12:10:42.140 --> 12:10:45.780
Can get these connections this long hex they will die during it

12:10:46.140 --> 12:10:52.140
Eyes on the save, the Bane of Sleeps, the Little Sleep, the Lotus Orbs, could be everything to protect Spirit.

12:10:53.140 --> 12:10:57.140
They're in such a risky position, but this is what we love to see from Spirit.

12:10:57.140 --> 12:11:02.140
Even when they're in these sort of spots where they don't have buybacks, they are not afraid to take these risks.

12:11:02.140 --> 12:11:07.140
They know that you have to try for these sort of risky moves if you want to claim the Aegis of Champions.

12:11:07.140 --> 12:11:14.880
Pretty much even on the net worth there coming up to 57 minutes here in a game

12:11:14.880 --> 12:11:19.740
five we were asking who's gonna think that they have that greater late game I

12:11:19.740 --> 12:11:23.880
think we're seeing that both of them have that great late game not really

12:11:23.880 --> 12:11:27.160
clear exclusive in advantage for even one at this point they're all about the

12:11:27.160 --> 12:11:30.560
playing right now all about the play all about the catch eyes on noticed both

12:11:30.560 --> 12:11:33.680
teams have the tools

12:11:33.680 --> 12:11:40.500
I do see the BKB getting swapped back in, so Collaps not able to play with the refresh

12:11:40.500 --> 12:11:42.660
Rashard in his inventory, absolutely necessary.

12:11:42.660 --> 12:11:44.660
He needs to be able to protect the Nova Fireball.

12:11:44.660 --> 12:11:47.660
They're gonna catch on the walls here outside of the base wall!

12:11:47.660 --> 12:11:48.660
He's got five.

12:11:48.660 --> 12:11:49.660
I mean, Spirit!

12:11:49.660 --> 12:11:50.660
They're gonna try running into this.

12:11:50.660 --> 12:11:51.660
They're looking to say, Tadic!

12:11:51.660 --> 12:11:52.660
The tour is gonna jump and aggressive over the walls in here with the Impest.

12:11:52.660 --> 12:11:53.660
The wall gets dropped down into the base wall!

12:11:53.660 --> 12:11:54.660
Tadic!

12:11:54.660 --> 12:11:55.660
He's gonna freeze for now!

12:11:55.660 --> 12:11:59.660
Every time the pistol drops down, they hear out the bomb!

12:11:59.660 --> 12:12:00.660
Spirit!

12:12:00.660 --> 12:12:01.660
Oh, my God!

12:12:02.660 --> 12:12:03.660
Spirit!

12:12:03.660 --> 12:12:04.660
Oh, he's the aggressive here.

12:12:04.660 --> 12:12:06.660
Despite the fact that he's not survived,

12:12:06.660 --> 12:12:08.660
they're ready to try and fight.

12:12:08.660 --> 12:12:09.660
It looks like he knows he's the peak,

12:12:09.660 --> 12:12:11.660
they'll be only going to buy him moments here

12:12:11.660 --> 12:12:14.660
before they inevitably bring him down.

12:12:14.660 --> 12:12:15.660
Yatoro knows it.

12:12:15.660 --> 12:12:16.660
If they don't jump me,

12:12:16.660 --> 12:12:18.660
I'm going to kill every single one of them.

12:12:18.660 --> 12:12:20.660
So, Laurel, he buys back immediately,

12:12:20.660 --> 12:12:21.660
back the other way we go.

12:12:21.660 --> 12:12:24.660
Again, just doing this in this situation.

12:12:24.660 --> 12:12:26.660
This is absolutely peak team spirit.

12:12:26.660 --> 12:12:28.660
Here in the grand finals,

12:12:28.660 --> 12:12:29.660
coming up to 60 minutes in,

12:12:29.660 --> 12:12:37.140
They never play scared, they never play scared and now they're in a spot where despite the fact that they're buybacks from Cuda

12:12:37.140 --> 12:12:40.280
They might just be able to force these crucial buybacks out from vision

12:12:40.420 --> 12:12:43.380
No one has a full refresher picked up here for the move

12:12:43.900 --> 12:12:45.900
Now what's damage you can do on the full?

12:12:45.900 --> 12:12:49.700
And when did the buybacks come out? Do the buybacks come out? What's the move here from vision?

12:12:50.940 --> 12:12:52.940
See

12:12:53.380 --> 12:12:55.540
Tomorrow playing it safe going for the push here

12:12:55.540 --> 12:12:59.700
I mean, do you buy back or do you let these two sets of racks go?

12:12:59.700 --> 12:13:01.700
Could you still have a tier two down on the bottom lane?

12:13:01.700 --> 12:13:03.300
Do you just stack for two sets of racks?

12:13:03.300 --> 12:13:04.300
I think you might.

12:13:04.300 --> 12:13:07.700
Unless they overextend on the side of Spirit, you see a position where you can go for this

12:13:07.700 --> 12:13:08.700
kill on this lifesteal.

12:13:08.700 --> 12:13:09.700
You might win.

12:13:09.700 --> 12:13:14.340
So you must see Spirit try and push for them.

12:13:14.340 --> 12:13:17.060
Take the mid racks and indeed they'll move over towards the top.

12:13:17.060 --> 12:13:18.060
20 seconds.

12:13:18.060 --> 12:13:19.060
Now at this point you do not want to buy back.

12:13:19.060 --> 12:13:20.060
The hacks will come out.

12:13:20.060 --> 12:13:21.060
But he's not saved.

12:13:21.060 --> 12:13:23.660
It's a top call to make here.

12:13:23.660 --> 12:13:30.260
It feels like the lesser of the evils ready here for Team Vision, they have to hold back on the buyback.

12:13:30.260 --> 12:13:34.960
They don't actually end up losing the full set top, so a little bit of a bonus from them there in that sense.

12:13:34.960 --> 12:13:41.660
But overall, Spirit strike back, able to do heavy damage here, taking out the full set mid, taking out the rain tracks top.

12:13:41.660 --> 12:13:45.660
But at the least for Team Vision, they don't have those big buybacks forced down.

12:13:45.660 --> 12:13:47.260
They keep their call.

12:13:47.260 --> 12:13:50.160
Two minutes left till Spirit has their buybacks back at the ready.

12:13:50.160 --> 12:13:54.600
Spamming the Moonlight Shadow for positioning, seeing the pick up here from Notice, I love this.

12:13:54.600 --> 12:13:59.320
This could be a game-winning refresher, if he gets a double call, trying to find Yatora on the angle,

12:13:59.320 --> 12:14:01.920
could be everything for the team. They can follow up.

12:14:02.520 --> 12:14:05.920
There is going to be saves, we are seeing the Wind Waker now picked up for not being,

12:14:05.920 --> 12:14:10.400
but does have that potential to also get the save, even if there is a nullifier,

12:14:10.400 --> 12:14:15.080
since it's going to be a Raged Lifestealer, so there's a lot of layers in these T-pikes to look out for.

12:14:15.080 --> 12:14:19.080
Satanic, wants to move shard, wants the box to be able to play on the map, and...

12:14:19.080 --> 12:14:21.080
Yeah, still? Not the agonies!

12:14:21.080 --> 12:14:22.080
Not the agonies, they hate it.

12:14:22.080 --> 12:14:23.080
They don't like it!

12:14:23.080 --> 12:14:25.080
Nope, they hate it. Don't know why, but they hate it.

12:14:27.080 --> 12:14:31.080
It is a short-awakening clash, of course, so maybe he's just feeling like it's not going to make the difference anyway.

12:14:36.080 --> 12:14:37.080
60 minutes.

12:14:37.080 --> 12:14:39.080
See what we get on the neutrals.

12:14:40.080 --> 12:14:43.080
A little bit of a breather here for both teams.

12:14:43.080 --> 12:14:48.120
They're gonna have back hit the neutrals pretty safely near the team quick to make an aggressive play

12:14:48.920 --> 12:14:53.100
And so just wait out those final minutes where the buybacks are gonna be back online

12:14:53.100 --> 12:14:55.520
It's only gonna be lals that's gonna be on that longer cooldown

12:14:55.560 --> 12:14:59.660
This these neutrals can make the difference always to right if you just get that audacious

12:14:59.660 --> 12:15:03.660
If you do get that crazy damage item, it could just kill these targets in one of these stuns

12:15:05.180 --> 12:15:06.980
Bobbles

12:15:06.980 --> 12:15:08.980
They're bobbling

12:15:08.980 --> 12:15:16.500
Collapsed was hanging on to the greedy tier 3 for a very long time there. He had to bobble at the ready

12:15:16.500 --> 12:15:18.740
He picks up the first bobble so he'll be able to bobble

12:15:19.300 --> 12:15:23.820
Secondary one which is upgraded immediately at that 60 minutes. Yatoro, he gets the deso

12:15:23.820 --> 12:15:27.860
Well, he's gonna be hitting hard and look at his HP. Oh, and he gets the evolved one as well

12:15:27.860 --> 12:15:32.660
So he's 6k HP, 40 armor the thingy, 46 armor they need to get through

12:15:32.660 --> 12:15:39.140
I'm with the Stygian he might just I mean how does it sort of go if these two get in a situation where they're

12:15:39.300 --> 12:15:42.940
What do we go? Oh, he's just gonna probably bubble again on the juggernaut with

12:15:44.220 --> 12:15:46.660
Audacious bubble. I think audacious is gonna feel pretty nice, right?

12:15:46.660 --> 12:15:51.620
It'd be the case. A lot of attacks be a lot of a match of deck damage that really boosts up your output. Okay spirit

12:15:52.820 --> 12:15:57.760
Looking to hit again buybacks are coming back up for them. They have their Toros at the ready. I

12:15:57.760 --> 12:16:02.440
I should switch it so he goes to the roof shadow prison there on a satanic

12:16:02.440 --> 12:16:06.720
Okay, I'm able to push out a little bit with those illusions maybe able to play

12:16:07.240 --> 12:16:09.800
Into the heads of spirit try and catch them out beat them out

12:16:10.520 --> 12:16:16.120
That is what a lot of these players do is but I mean your Torah and satanic the most notorious ones for doing these mantas and losing plays to

12:16:16.120 --> 12:16:18.120
Bait things smoke-on-smoke action

12:16:18.440 --> 12:16:21.320
They will they fall for these plays from satanic bro. She's up

12:16:22.120 --> 12:16:25.200
I'll be pushing out the waves with this arrow with this star storm

12:16:25.200 --> 12:16:30.580
both teams pretty much getting the buybacks back online look at the debt

12:16:30.580 --> 12:16:35.960
scouting a lot here it's an illusion so debate the Rift Shadow Prism falls for

12:16:35.960 --> 12:16:38.240
it once

12:16:42.720 --> 12:16:47.180
all the buybacks coming back up as we are saying Laurel the one the big one that

12:16:47.180 --> 12:16:50.540
doesn't have it for the side of spirit he's probably gonna be playing more

12:16:50.540 --> 12:16:54.140
to the back lines in this next step of the fight.

12:16:54.140 --> 12:16:56.340
It could be important because around this sort of fight,

12:16:56.340 --> 12:16:59.440
around the Roshan, both teams are going to want to use those by-bites.

12:16:59.440 --> 12:17:00.540
Yeah.

12:17:00.540 --> 12:17:01.740
Wait a second.

12:17:01.740 --> 12:17:03.440
Who's got the smoke still left too, Spirit?

12:17:03.440 --> 12:17:04.340
They still have one.

12:17:04.340 --> 12:17:06.340
Do they have one left on the side of Vision?

12:17:06.340 --> 12:17:07.540
I'm not seeing one.

12:17:07.540 --> 12:17:10.940
Can they find some sort of angle to approach Vision here that surprises them?

12:17:10.940 --> 12:17:12.240
That collapse.

12:17:12.240 --> 12:17:14.340
He hasn't really been able to fight a massive vacuum,

12:17:14.340 --> 12:17:17.140
but if he does find an angle for it too, the fight could just be decided.

12:17:17.140 --> 12:17:19.140
Especially with the refresher.

12:17:19.140 --> 12:17:22.580
Spirit on the approach. No one's gonna jump the Hydra. No one's gonna turn through.

12:17:22.580 --> 12:17:24.580
They're going to head to Taurus. He's gonna look towards the enemy.

12:17:24.580 --> 12:17:26.580
And they're gonna get lifted back up to no ground.

12:17:26.580 --> 12:17:29.080
On the Hydra, the stuns there, the bash it on towards the ocean.

12:17:29.080 --> 12:17:31.080
They're probably on the side of the Yatora guy.

12:17:31.080 --> 12:17:33.080
He's gonna fall to the sleeper.

12:17:33.080 --> 12:17:35.080
What's the Yatora? They stay in the back.

12:17:35.080 --> 12:17:37.080
They try to block the Yatora.

12:17:37.080 --> 12:17:39.080
They fly back to the front of those steps before they go.

12:17:39.080 --> 12:17:42.080
Allow Cytanic to escape the punches of Yatoras.

12:17:42.080 --> 12:17:44.080
But Cytanic is shot from behind.

12:17:44.080 --> 12:17:46.080
Cytanic is now.

12:17:46.080 --> 12:17:49.520
But they're back, they're going to have to continue to come out here from vision. No surprise back.

12:17:49.520 --> 12:17:51.640
St. Tannick's still holding on to it. No one, no one.

12:17:51.640 --> 12:17:53.640
One for the pressure, St. Tannick's got the shot down.

12:17:53.640 --> 12:17:57.120
So they roll up there, as they're standing on the line.

12:17:57.120 --> 12:18:00.480
He pulled back to the St. Tannick, they have to save the guitar.

12:18:00.480 --> 12:18:05.680
Close again, get the back. St. Tannick's falling off, they're here to go and try to give him a life.

12:18:05.680 --> 12:18:10.080
Push back there, allows space for St. Tannick to get back to the St. Tannick, the base.

12:18:10.080 --> 12:18:15.320
Regardless, they'll try to get out with the win-win, they'll go get the blink off, he'll live.

12:18:15.320 --> 12:18:19.080
No one's to guard from the front line. Steps up, crosses, heads to goal, up the last.

12:18:19.080 --> 12:18:21.320
They're trying to go to the infestation, the biggest goal!

12:18:21.320 --> 12:18:22.920
And the breakout, no one!

12:18:22.920 --> 12:18:26.520
So everybody's down, you can take down, before I play it through the list!

12:18:27.240 --> 12:18:28.360
Who get back from the fountain?

12:18:28.360 --> 12:18:29.640
But don't, the fountain!

12:18:29.640 --> 12:18:30.200
He did!

12:18:30.200 --> 12:18:32.360
Get inside the fountain!

12:18:32.360 --> 12:18:33.480
Oh, and they've done it!

12:18:33.480 --> 12:18:34.440
I think they have!

12:18:35.160 --> 12:18:36.760
The three cores are gone!

12:18:36.760 --> 12:18:39.320
The inspiration onto the tearful...

12:18:39.320 --> 12:18:39.960
Gigi!

12:18:39.960 --> 12:18:41.240
Gigi's gone!

12:18:41.240 --> 12:18:43.800
The inspiration has gone in again!

12:18:43.800 --> 12:18:47.800
I can now move over big, the three-times!

12:18:47.800 --> 12:18:50.800
They've done it! They have solidified!

12:18:50.800 --> 12:18:53.800
These guys are the absolute maniacs of Dota!

12:18:53.800 --> 12:18:55.800
The Blacks and Yutaro!

12:18:55.800 --> 12:18:58.800
They keep their cool in the toughest moments!

12:18:58.800 --> 12:19:04.800
These grand finals, it is where they absolutely revel in the action team spirit!

12:19:04.800 --> 12:19:08.800
Oh my god, what an unbelievable series, not me!

12:19:08.800 --> 12:19:12.800
His first TI appearance, and he wins it!

12:19:12.800 --> 12:19:13.800
Holy, holy, holy.

12:19:13.800 --> 12:19:17.800
The last dive for him and rose a second time for Lyle

12:19:17.800 --> 12:19:21.800
and a third time for Collapse at Jatoro.

12:19:21.800 --> 12:19:25.800
Incredible things there in Shanghai.

12:19:25.800 --> 12:19:27.800
Team spirit.

12:19:27.800 --> 12:19:30.800
This game five, I mean, vision, they stepped it up.

12:19:30.800 --> 12:19:34.800
They had to, they pushed it the distance 64 minutes in.

12:19:34.800 --> 12:19:38.800
They took a risk as we've seen both teams do throughout the drafts

12:19:38.800 --> 12:19:39.800
of this Grand Finals.

12:19:39.800 --> 12:19:42.620
The jump doesn't pay off but my goodness!

12:19:42.620 --> 12:19:45.220
Zigtanik gets it is absolutely fast!

12:19:45.220 --> 12:19:47.720
Don't let him collapse, pick it up first it looks like.

12:19:47.720 --> 12:19:49.720
But that's a very, very, very time!

12:19:53.100 --> 12:19:55.460
What a game! What a round-final!

12:19:55.460 --> 12:20:02.220
Ladies and gentlemen, the winners of the International Quick-Winning Stage 10 for Spareway!

12:20:39.800 --> 12:21:09.720
Ladies and Gentlemen, after being pushed to the absolute limit in a five game series,

12:21:09.720 --> 12:21:16.720
series we are ready to crown the champions of TI 15!

12:21:16.720 --> 12:21:31.720
For the first time in Dota history, a team flames three agencies!

12:22:01.720 --> 12:22:13.920
Team spirit, fight all the way through lower bracket, now you're here, you lift the ages.

12:22:13.920 --> 12:22:21.800
Not me, I gotta ask you, you gave your hair to the god of Dota, Dota God, he gave you

12:22:21.800 --> 12:22:22.800
the championship.

12:22:22.800 --> 12:22:29.120
Do you wanna say anything to your fans, your family, anyone who's been watching

12:22:29.120 --> 12:22:35.120
your games. If you want you can speak Russian, you can speak Russian.

12:22:35.120 --> 12:22:42.120
Thank you very much for being the first to hear my mom. She supported me very well.

12:22:45.120 --> 12:22:49.120
And the fans who supported us, you are great.

12:22:52.120 --> 12:22:54.120
Come here, come here, please.

12:22:54.120 --> 12:22:58.120
Please come here, this is your moment. This is the moment to lose to you.

12:22:59.120 --> 12:23:04.120
Now, this is your first stages.

12:23:04.120 --> 12:23:08.120
Just have to be special. What is going through your mind right now?

12:23:08.120 --> 12:23:10.120
This is the first time you've been invited to the championship.

12:23:10.120 --> 12:23:13.120
This is a special moment. What are you feeling now?

12:23:13.120 --> 12:23:16.120
I don't know. It feels like I'm in a dream.

12:23:16.120 --> 12:23:19.120
It feels like I'm still in this game.

12:23:19.120 --> 12:23:23.120
In this best of best, best of five.

12:23:23.120 --> 12:23:26.120
So I don't know. Unbelievable.

12:23:26.120 --> 12:23:31.120
I don't know what to say, but I'm still in the game, and this BL stage is crazy.

12:23:31.120 --> 12:23:33.120
Everything is so hard to believe.

12:23:40.120 --> 12:23:42.120
Three gods.

12:23:42.120 --> 12:23:48.120
When you first won the TI, did you ever think that this journey would be so exciting?

12:23:48.120 --> 12:23:50.120
Three ages.

12:23:50.120 --> 12:23:54.120
Well, when the first time you lifted up these ages,

12:23:54.120 --> 12:23:58.120
Did you ever imagine the journey would be so incredible?

12:23:59.120 --> 12:24:02.120
Yes, I hope I'm going to win 4 or 5.

12:24:06.120 --> 12:24:10.120
And I want to say I have 55% percent in.

12:24:10.120 --> 12:24:14.120
I thought, can you give me purple light with drawranger please?

12:24:14.120 --> 12:24:16.120
Drawranger?

12:24:17.120 --> 12:24:19.120
Please, I lost all my negatives.

12:24:19.120 --> 12:24:29.120
I didn't make the right prediction, but can you give me the black Dwarf's equipment?

12:24:29.120 --> 12:24:34.120
Really, that's what you're thinking right now in your mind after you lifted the Aegis.

12:24:34.120 --> 12:24:38.120
This is what you're thinking right now in your mind. You just got a new idea.

12:24:38.120 --> 12:24:40.120
Okay, okay.

12:24:42.120 --> 12:24:47.120
Now, please. Now, come here.

12:24:49.120 --> 12:25:00.920
Now there's people questioning you, if you win once, if you down it twice, what's going

12:25:00.920 --> 12:25:01.920
through your mind right now?

12:25:01.920 --> 12:25:12.920
You feel good, amazing games, they perform really well, this last fight was amazing,

12:25:12.920 --> 12:25:21.920
like screaming, destroy everything, like when they try to case their own fountain, so it's good to play Dota, and win Dota.

12:25:42.920 --> 12:25:50.920
How are the fans? You and Yatoro are the only two players that have won three TI's.

12:25:50.920 --> 12:25:55.920
How does it feel to be the best Offlaner in the world?

12:25:55.920 --> 12:25:57.920
Wonderful feeling.

12:25:57.920 --> 12:26:06.920
Can you say any other words you want to give to the fans to people who support you here in the arena, back home?

12:26:06.920 --> 12:26:13.920
I'm just a little bit shocked right now, to be honest.

12:26:14.920 --> 12:26:18.920
I feel a little bit... I don't know what to say.

12:26:18.920 --> 12:26:22.920
I feel like it's really weird now. Thank you so much. Enjoy your moment.

12:26:25.920 --> 12:26:27.920
We seem to have one more.

12:26:27.920 --> 12:26:30.920
Of course, we can't forget you.

12:26:30.920 --> 12:26:31.920
Coach!

12:26:36.920 --> 12:27:05.920
You have lived ages yourself, now about the player, and now you live ages yourself, now about the player,

12:27:05.920 --> 12:27:10.580
And now you left the ages as a coach with your old teammates with your team

12:27:11.020 --> 12:27:14.320
Do you feel like maybe you just figure out the door to the game?

12:27:15.720 --> 12:27:17.720
Do you need to beat?

12:27:17.720 --> 12:27:19.280
Do you think?

12:27:19.280 --> 12:27:22.200
Do you think you just beat this game?

12:27:23.440 --> 12:27:25.440
Ah, I don't know.

12:27:25.800 --> 12:27:27.800
It's too obvious!

12:27:28.400 --> 12:27:33.920
If you want to do this kind of confidence, that's the confidence we want to hear! Thank you so much, Mikoshka!

12:27:35.920 --> 12:27:43.920
Alright, then, tonight we witness Spirit's third game of the season.

12:27:43.920 --> 12:27:45.920
The third champion is...

12:27:52.920 --> 12:27:56.920
And once again, they've made it to the international tournament.

12:27:56.920 --> 12:28:06.920
Once again waving their legend into the history of the international.

12:28:06.920 --> 12:28:16.920
And all that comes to a close here in Shanghai.

12:28:16.920 --> 12:28:26.920
大家一起 and tonight once again belongs to Team Spirit!

12:28:32.920 --> 12:28:44.920
Congratulations to Team Spirit. Every year a team makes history, but TI 15 is special because this is a legacy that has been created today.

12:28:44.920 --> 12:28:50.720
today, a legacy that no one ever thought would happen in the history of TI.

12:28:50.720 --> 12:28:58.160
We have our two first ever, three TI champions, and Org winning for the third time as well

12:28:58.160 --> 12:28:59.160
for Team Spirit.

12:28:59.160 --> 12:29:05.480
Mabochka doing it as a player, as a coach, and not me to come in as his first ever

12:29:05.480 --> 12:29:08.440
TI appearance and lift that Aegis.

12:29:08.440 --> 12:29:13.040
Rue as well coming back for the second time and getting to have success.

12:29:13.040 --> 12:29:16.400
It really is a fair tale ending for them here on spirit.

12:29:16.400 --> 12:29:20.320
This is the undisputed best team in the history of Dota 2.

12:29:20.320 --> 12:29:21.320
You go, Quinn.

12:29:21.320 --> 12:29:23.560
No, they are there the goats.

12:29:23.560 --> 12:29:24.560
There's no argument.

12:29:24.560 --> 12:29:31.440
Two EWC's, three TI's, a million other tournaments, unbelievable, unfathomable individual skill

12:29:31.440 --> 12:29:34.640
and team cohesion, and Dota ideas that are out of this world.

12:29:34.640 --> 12:29:39.080
They are the best players to ever touch the game by a wide margin.

12:29:39.080 --> 12:29:41.480
Yeah, I'm not a loss for words.

12:29:41.480 --> 12:29:42.680
I'm really happy for them.

12:29:42.680 --> 12:29:48.320
I honestly think as Dota players, we could have no better ambassadors for our game.

12:29:48.320 --> 12:29:52.080
I think they are beyond just being great Dota players, they're also great people,

12:29:52.080 --> 12:29:55.000
they're people you can look up to and you can aspire to become like.

12:29:55.000 --> 12:29:59.000
They're amazing idols for us to have and I'm honestly really happy that it's them,

12:29:59.000 --> 12:30:01.600
that we're the first people to ever reach the three P.

12:30:01.600 --> 12:30:03.720
No one's done it like this team.

12:30:03.720 --> 12:30:07.400
Three TI wins, they are incredible.

12:30:07.400 --> 12:30:12.600
They have a history of just busting out legendary player after legendary player

12:30:12.600 --> 12:30:16.560
bringing in new players, bringing in players who no one heard of before this,

12:30:16.560 --> 12:30:19.200
who was not me before a few months ago.

12:30:19.320 --> 12:30:21.400
And all of a sudden he's lifting the ages.

12:30:21.600 --> 12:30:24.120
Rue, nobody heard of him up until last year when he joined.

12:30:24.120 --> 12:30:26.400
And all of a sudden he's the best position five in the world.

12:30:26.560 --> 12:30:28.920
He absolutely demolished this series.

12:30:28.920 --> 12:30:31.200
And you see coach Moposhka on the screen.

12:30:31.400 --> 12:30:33.160
He is the heart and soul of this team.

12:30:33.160 --> 12:30:36.680
He is everything that Team Spirit has represented over the years.

12:30:36.680 --> 12:30:40.080
Perseverance, resilience, friendship, love.

12:30:40.080 --> 12:30:42.200
It's just such a beautiful story to witness unfold.

12:30:42.200 --> 12:30:48.160
I mean the resilience is so key. You can come in through upper bracket. They've done that before for a win

12:30:48.160 --> 12:30:54.000
But to come in through lower bracket the way that they did to essentially feel like they were powering up 2-0 off the 2-0

12:30:54.000 --> 12:30:57.280
And then again be pushed to the absolute limit

12:30:57.280 --> 12:31:04.320
It was seven games of competitive Dota that these five had to play two different opponents in a single day

12:31:04.320 --> 12:31:10.880
The Bapushka had to drop to this team and I cannot believe just what they're able to do at each and every turn

12:31:10.880 --> 12:31:15.820
It felt like they were one step ahead ready to take team fight off the team fight and that last one

12:31:15.820 --> 12:31:18.160
I don't even know what to make of it

12:31:18.160 --> 12:31:20.800
I would still be living in that booth if I was one of them

12:31:20.800 --> 12:31:24.640
I mean that's sleep the room gets off on that's right. I know we're starts was talking about game

12:31:24.640 --> 12:31:28.680
But I have you can that sleep that he gets off on your Toro. He's like one percent HP

12:31:28.680 --> 12:31:31.600
He comes in with a clutch sleep and that just turns everything around

12:31:32.640 --> 12:31:38.720
I do you know like pain is like so slow and walk your way towards him watching his HP

12:31:38.720 --> 12:31:42.680
just dropping. Just finally get into range. You're not fumbling your ease. You're like

12:31:42.680 --> 12:31:46.480
double-hicking and sleep yourself. You manage to get the nightmare on him. It wins you TI

12:31:46.480 --> 12:31:50.520
and like, yeah, it's honestly amazing. I'm so happy for them.

12:31:50.520 --> 12:31:56.560
It was a magical moment. I mean, Team Spirit, they just have a history of delivering magical

12:31:56.560 --> 12:32:03.360
moments at TI Grand Finals. They have a 100% win rate in TI Grand Finals. They have

12:32:03.360 --> 12:32:08.360
not lost a single one. Three

12:32:08.360 --> 12:32:09.360
for three, baby. Three for three.

12:32:09.360 --> 12:32:11.360
And there is no other team that

12:32:11.360 --> 12:32:13.360
once they reach this point in

12:32:13.360 --> 12:32:15.360
the tournament, no one can stop

12:32:15.360 --> 12:32:16.360
them. They're like a boulder

12:32:16.360 --> 12:32:17.360
that's just getting bigger and

12:32:17.360 --> 12:32:18.360
bigger and they demolish

12:32:18.360 --> 12:32:20.360
everybody in their way. It's

12:32:20.360 --> 12:32:21.360
it's unbelievable. Watching them

12:32:21.360 --> 12:32:24.360
is truly it's a work of art and

12:32:24.360 --> 12:32:26.360
it's what I think a lifetime of

12:32:26.360 --> 12:32:27.360
dedication to this game from

12:32:27.360 --> 12:32:29.360
these players has has achieved.

12:32:29.360 --> 12:32:30.360
This doesn't happen overnight

12:32:30.360 --> 12:32:32.360
and it's not just celebrated

12:32:32.360 --> 12:32:36.920
of the rest of their lives because it is an unbelievable achievement in I think one of

12:32:36.920 --> 12:32:38.840
the hardest and best games ever made.

12:32:38.840 --> 12:32:42.400
It's what what better sector to have such an accomplishment in.

12:32:42.400 --> 12:32:47.760
They've won TI in so many different ways too right that TI 10 was a Cinderella run.

12:32:47.760 --> 12:32:51.200
Nobody knew who they were coming up against when it came to them.

12:32:51.200 --> 12:32:52.400
They just crushed.

12:32:52.400 --> 12:32:53.680
They came from the lower bracket.

12:32:53.680 --> 12:32:56.840
They fought their way to it and they won their second TI win.

12:32:56.840 --> 12:33:00.600
They were the best from the start of the tournament until the very end of this tier

12:33:00.600 --> 12:33:02.120
and this third TI win.

12:33:02.120 --> 12:33:06.160
it wasn't it wasn't sure everyone had them like top four nobody knew if they

12:33:06.160 --> 12:33:10.360
would make it this far there was a big story a big monster a big final boss in

12:33:10.360 --> 12:33:16.160
team vision and they beat them in the most convincing fashion and it was the

12:33:16.160 --> 12:33:19.640
most even game five of the grand finals that I've seen in a long time I

12:33:19.640 --> 12:33:24.160
honestly did not know who would win up until the very end honestly I think

12:33:24.160 --> 12:33:28.200
the 10th place in those bits also didn't know because it felt like we

12:33:28.200 --> 12:33:31.600
were going to be seeing history repeat itself with this jug not being

12:33:31.600 --> 12:33:36.600
to make it work. Not really

12:33:36.600 --> 12:33:37.600
having a game, but my goodness,

12:33:37.600 --> 12:33:39.600
massive props to say, Tannock.

12:33:39.600 --> 12:33:40.600
I know that it's its spirits

12:33:40.600 --> 12:33:42.600
moment, but they really put so

12:33:42.600 --> 12:33:44.600
much out there. You were

12:33:44.600 --> 12:33:46.600
thinking is this is this

12:33:46.600 --> 12:33:47.600
vengeance fit job, but spirit

12:33:47.600 --> 12:33:48.600
at the end of the day have

12:33:48.600 --> 12:33:49.600
answers for everything you

12:33:49.600 --> 12:33:51.600
don't even think about. Yeah

12:33:51.600 --> 12:33:52.600
vision put up an incredible

12:33:52.600 --> 12:33:54.600
fight all five of them, so

12:33:54.600 --> 12:33:55.600
massive props them, even

12:33:55.600 --> 12:33:56.600
though they're not the

12:33:56.600 --> 12:33:58.600
victors, it's it's a side

12:33:58.600 --> 12:33:59.600
of Dota that's a little

12:33:59.600 --> 12:34:00.600
uglier and it's rough, but

12:34:00.600 --> 12:34:02.600
not be doing the

12:34:02.940 --> 12:34:06.980
Doing the Maureen in a bar. He just needs some fluff after a game like that

12:34:06.980 --> 12:34:13.580
And I we have to talk about this guy not me a team spirit have an eye for talent like no other

12:34:13.900 --> 12:34:19.740
Nobody nobody expected him to be this much of a monster when he debuted in that dream league season a few months ago

12:34:19.740 --> 12:34:26.640
He was two stepping around people who's dancing around on his Rubik stealing every single spell single-handedly closing up games

12:34:26.640 --> 12:34:31.120
and people are asking about where did he come from? Where did they find him? And here he is,

12:34:31.120 --> 12:34:37.200
just a few months later, winning TI, listing the ages. Yeah, it's amazing.

12:34:39.840 --> 12:34:45.600
See, that's Adi boy. He'll always support you, help you out when you need it there. But Spirit

12:34:45.600 --> 12:34:50.560
just have a family like no other in themselves. The way that you're talking about that they

12:34:50.560 --> 12:34:55.920
can foster new talent, and it's a true testament to what you're able to do when it comes to

12:34:55.920 --> 12:35:03.120
to an environment back each other up know that when you're down on a game five the energy still bad the belief is still there and at any point

12:35:03.120 --> 12:35:09.080
You can take this and you can be the ones out there like they did today lifting that ages for a third time

12:35:09.760 --> 12:35:16.440
Yeah, it's it's unbelievable. They are they're incredible or get fostering talent. I mean they even discovered

12:35:16.680 --> 12:35:18.760
You're collapsing your Torah you go way back

12:35:18.760 --> 12:35:24.200
But post got honestly had not I mean he was obviously playing before then but did not have a ton of results

12:35:24.200 --> 12:35:25.600
and they create this roster with him.

12:35:25.600 --> 12:35:28.480
He's the one who fosters all these players from the very beginning.

12:35:28.480 --> 12:35:33.040
And I think when you look at players and people who have been such a massive

12:35:33.040 --> 12:35:35.580
impact on the scene, I think the Pochka has to be up there.

12:35:35.580 --> 12:35:38.920
Someone who's not only fostered people, but so incredible himself to have

12:35:39.080 --> 12:35:42.480
two rings as a player and also a ring as a coach on both sides of the game.

12:35:42.480 --> 12:35:44.760
The guy is just an absolute monster.

12:35:44.760 --> 12:35:47.960
I mean, I honestly feel like they would don't win this final without 100 percent.

12:35:47.960 --> 12:35:51.500
They've become a completely different team ever since he's joined as a coach.

12:35:51.720 --> 12:35:52.940
You can see the influence.

12:35:52.940 --> 12:35:58.100
It's really cool about this iteration of Spirit, and my mind is that they can play fast.

12:35:58.100 --> 12:36:01.320
This is their new playstyle, what they found from the new supports and new kids coming in

12:36:01.320 --> 12:36:05.600
and teaching the old players, like, we can play like this, whereas Miposhka then also

12:36:05.600 --> 12:36:09.980
brings a stability and the way to play these long dragged out slower games, and it's

12:36:09.980 --> 12:36:12.600
a completely different beast than the team that won the first PI.

12:36:12.600 --> 12:36:16.380
I think if they can keep this kind of form, they will be a very threatening team

12:36:16.380 --> 12:36:19.140
coming up throughout all the next season as well.

12:36:19.140 --> 12:36:25.300
No one ever underestimates team spirit when it becomes a TI, but this year was so different

12:36:25.300 --> 12:36:26.300
for them.

12:36:26.300 --> 12:36:30.780
All of these roster changes we've alluded to, not a single first place at an event that

12:36:30.780 --> 12:36:33.740
they participated in as well, which is crazy to think about.

12:36:33.740 --> 12:36:37.740
This team has always been able to find success for themselves throughout the season, no matter

12:36:37.740 --> 12:36:38.740
what.

12:36:38.740 --> 12:36:41.700
And then they have to go through qualifiers, and it's still the same question in your

12:36:41.700 --> 12:36:42.700
mind.

12:36:42.700 --> 12:36:45.840
Yes, it's spirit when it comes to TI, but how far can they really go?

12:36:45.840 --> 12:36:50.280
And they prove everyone who ever planted a seed of doubt about them to rest because you've

12:36:50.280 --> 12:36:53.440
lifted this a third time or your first appearance.

12:36:53.440 --> 12:36:54.440
It doesn't matter.

12:36:54.440 --> 12:36:58.120
Spirit have given us everything when it comes to TI history.

12:36:58.120 --> 12:37:01.520
And every single player on that team can be praised tenfold.

12:37:01.520 --> 12:37:08.200
And we have talked about Miposhka, not me, but Collapse and Yatoro, three ages.

12:37:08.200 --> 12:37:13.440
Yatoro is undisputably the best carry in all of Dota history.

12:37:13.440 --> 12:37:14.680
No one's done it like him.

12:37:14.680 --> 12:37:19.240
No one's looked as dominant as he has once he reaches that main stage and he gets on there.

12:37:19.240 --> 12:37:20.680
We were joking about Baldi Toro.

12:37:20.680 --> 12:37:22.080
He didn't need to shave his head.

12:37:22.080 --> 12:37:24.280
He didn't need to sacrifice to the Dota gods.

12:37:24.280 --> 12:37:29.800
He is that guy and Team Vision unfortunately they had to face this monster in him.

12:37:29.800 --> 12:37:30.800
Yeah.

12:37:30.800 --> 12:37:33.720
I think the one word he describes those two players is just clutch.

12:37:33.720 --> 12:37:37.520
So many people you can see them get shaky when the chips are down, but they just

12:37:37.520 --> 12:37:38.760
don't in the same way.

12:37:38.760 --> 12:37:39.760
I don't know what it is.

12:37:39.760 --> 12:37:43.040
I don't know how they're like that, but it's unlike any player I've ever

12:37:43.040 --> 12:37:44.040
seen.

12:37:44.040 --> 12:37:48.200
When the moment is the biggest they play the best and it's such an incredible skill

12:37:48.200 --> 12:37:53.880
That's so rare that you can't help but just admire it because it's I don't know it's it's astounding

12:37:53.880 --> 12:37:58.920
I want to give each of you guys a moment to give me everything that feels right about

12:37:59.360 --> 12:38:04.620
TI 15 how you've enjoyed Shanghai in the last two weeks that have amounted to spirit being our

12:38:05.040 --> 12:38:12.040
Champions for this TI I mean for me personally. I think Shanghai obviously is where I started my own TI journey

12:38:12.040 --> 12:38:17.040
It's amazing to be back. I'm really thankful to be here and would obviously love to come back to China more

12:38:17.040 --> 12:38:22.960
I haven't been here since COVID so it's amazing to be here the Dota at this TI has been very entertaining to watch

12:38:22.960 --> 12:38:27.720
I feel like we had a grand finals that featured everything we got with the cool strategy victories

12:38:27.720 --> 12:38:33.720
We got amazing gameplay victories and towards the end we got an absolute sloth fest of a game five where everybody's just farming

12:38:33.720 --> 12:38:40.240
So I feel like we got it all and I'm you know, thank you to valve for believing in us to this grand final panel

12:38:40.240 --> 12:38:43.600
and thank you to all the players and all the fans for watching and making it so special.

12:38:44.560 --> 12:38:51.520
Dota 2 is such a beautiful game. I mean every TI is a celebration of the community, of the teams,

12:38:51.520 --> 12:38:56.960
of the talent, of all of us just come together and we show how much we love Dota and what it means

12:38:56.960 --> 12:39:02.320
to us and just watching the incredible games aside, being part of it and witnessing it first

12:39:02.320 --> 12:39:08.240
hand is something else entirely and I'm always so happy to be here. Yeah, incredibly grateful

12:39:08.240 --> 12:39:13.440
for all you guys are making this a great experience. Incredibly grateful to all the fans who love this

12:39:13.440 --> 12:39:18.400
game as much as we do, and that's why it exists in the first place. And thank you to Valve for

12:39:18.400 --> 12:39:23.120
creating and maintaining what I think is the best game ever made. And also thank you to production,

12:39:23.120 --> 12:39:26.000
all the people behind the scenes who make this stuff possible. There's so many of them who

12:39:26.000 --> 12:39:30.080
work unbelievably long hours, much longer than us or any of the players. So shout out to them

12:39:30.080 --> 12:39:34.880
for making an event exist that would not exist without them. 15 years of beautiful

12:39:34.880 --> 12:39:37.280
I'm going to give the

12:39:37.280 --> 12:39:39.080
guys here to 15 more massive

12:39:39.080 --> 12:39:40.820
thank you to everyone whether

12:39:40.820 --> 12:39:42.320
you're watching here in Shanghai

12:39:42.320 --> 12:39:43.180
around the world, whether it

12:39:43.180 --> 12:39:45.120
be Australia, North America,

12:39:45.120 --> 12:39:46.680
Europe. We've appreciated you

12:39:46.680 --> 12:39:48.760
joining our journey here and

12:39:48.760 --> 12:39:51.320
it is with a hot full of love

12:39:51.320 --> 12:39:54.120
for Dota that I wish you a

12:39:54.120 --> 12:39:55.060
good night for the last time

12:39:55.060 --> 12:39:59.240
here at TI 15.

12:40:34.880 --> 12:40:44.880
I'm not sure if you can hear me, but I'm not sure if you can hear me, but I'm not sure if you can hear me.

12:43:34.880 --> 12:43:36.880
I

12:44:04.880 --> 12:44:06.880
I
