Take a step, take a step, take a step 23:50.860 --> 23:51.860 Cause I've been back 23:51.860 --> 23:53.860 Oh, just like that 23:53.860 --> 23:56.860 Maybe you can crank up that too fast 23:56.860 --> 23:59.860 Oh, oh, just like that 23:59.860 --> 24:01.860 I see it up in my future 24:01.860 --> 24:05.860 Oh, oh, I know what I think you can go 24:05.860 --> 24:08.860 New dark house outside my, my mouth is my soul 24:08.860 --> 24:10.860 It's lovely, it's fishy, and sometimes it's gone 24:10.860 --> 24:13.860 No way, now watch me get this phone 25:13.860 --> 25:15.860 I 25:43.860 --> 25:45.860 I 26:13.860 --> 26:38.180 And of course, who's going to qualify in the top 13 spots going on over to the summerland. 26:38.180 --> 26:42.660 Also breaking news in case you didn't see the updates to the summit. 26:42.660 --> 26:47.100 Go check out fncom on socials and there's a lot to break down on that and we would love 26:47.100 --> 26:50.740 to take time to do that but we have six games ahead of us today. 26:50.740 --> 26:54.180 There's still so much story to be told in the right here in the right now. 26:54.180 --> 27:00.700 I don't bring in Kelly link and vivid friends day two obviously big announcement comes out 27:00.700 --> 27:05.420 but right now we're looking at a close race and of course if we're going to start 27:05.420 --> 27:08.820 us anything it's it will be four nights crazy things will happen players will win 27:08.820 --> 27:11.740 We lose, we lose, we lose, game players will rise and fall. 27:11.740 --> 27:14.520 And we have six games to determine it all, Kelly. 27:14.520 --> 27:15.360 Ooh, man. 27:15.360 --> 27:19.000 I mean, we've just wrapped up EU, and it's so exciting over there. 27:19.000 --> 27:22.480 Sky and scroll walk away as our winners from major number 27:22.480 --> 27:23.280 1 for EU. 27:23.280 --> 27:26.360 And then obviously over at OCD, four crazy things 27:26.360 --> 27:29.960 happening, Alex being the first ever seven times winner 27:29.960 --> 27:33.320 for the FCS finals, also getting seven-victor royals. 27:33.320 --> 27:35.220 I mean, those are the other regions, though. 27:35.220 --> 27:37.500 But we are here for GA Central. 27:37.500 --> 27:42.300 anything like what we got to see from yesterday is that we are in all some 27:42.300 --> 27:48.060 crazy. Oh yeah NA will definitely deliver and yeah you mentioned that right EU 27:48.060 --> 27:51.380 kind of popping off earlier today it was so funny for me to sit there and watch 27:51.380 --> 27:54.980 you because you're kind of reminded that hey listen yeah we've got this race 27:54.980 --> 27:57.940 that's going on at the top every single game matters for those guys because 27:57.940 --> 28:02.260 they're so close at the top but then decisions made by those type of players 28:02.260 --> 28:05.420 those top of the leaderboard players like pushing somebody who's in like 28:05.420 --> 28:09.580 20 second plays, two spots away from qualifying to the land. 28:09.580 --> 28:11.380 There's just so much at stake here. 28:11.380 --> 28:13.820 And we got to keep reminding ourselves that, yeah, 28:13.820 --> 28:16.020 we are looking to crown an FNCS champion, 28:16.020 --> 28:18.020 but we're also looking at some of these players 28:18.020 --> 28:19.820 and making it to the land. 28:19.820 --> 28:21.620 Oh, man. Oh, man. Let's take a look. 28:21.620 --> 28:23.980 We have a little graphic here for the players 28:23.980 --> 28:26.620 who have already qualified on through to the summit. 28:26.620 --> 28:28.220 They take a nice little look now. 28:28.220 --> 28:31.020 Obviously, some of the regions are all done, right? 28:31.020 --> 28:32.220 They've got themselves wrapped up, 28:32.220 --> 28:39.000 But we still need to see how things unfold for ourselves again as Kelly pointed out sky-scroll congratulations over in 28:39.420 --> 28:40.540 EU 28:40.540 --> 28:44.340 NAC Brazil still waiting to happen, right? 28:44.340 --> 28:49.600 Like especially NA West lots of big names and stories to conclude 28:50.460 --> 28:54.220 Well guys obviously we only have so much time before the game start 28:54.220 --> 28:58.660 Why don't we get into it? Why don't we start off with this lobby list, right? We are the leaderboard rather 28:58.660 --> 29:01.420 their top 13 is what we're targeting. 29:01.420 --> 29:04.820 If we want to hit the summit right now, 29:04.820 --> 29:09.180 QK and Khan at 1.97 are in that top 13, right? 29:09.180 --> 29:11.180 And even if I look at just one more placement, 29:11.180 --> 29:13.660 Kamaz and Sphinx only a point ahead. 29:13.660 --> 29:15.660 So you know, Kelly, coming into today, 29:15.660 --> 29:18.780 a lot of these players either have to just put it all on the line 29:18.780 --> 29:20.620 and hold on to this top 13, 29:20.620 --> 29:22.140 or if you're outside that top 13, 29:22.140 --> 29:25.100 you really need to do everything you can to break through. 29:25.100 --> 29:31.900 I mean QK and Khan in our final game from day number one was a great example to show just how crazy 29:31.900 --> 29:38.380 things can shift in a single game. They were gone from our stage two for our standings and to get 29:38.380 --> 29:44.140 that final victory royale up that they rocked them up to that coveted 13 spot because that is where 29:44.140 --> 29:48.860 the doodle-dorff tickets are earned but of course we still have six more games to go and there's 29:48.860 --> 29:54.140 still some big names outside of that range vivid and anything can change when it comes to Fortnite. 29:54.140 --> 30:14.140 the second page is scary. It will be interesting to keep tabs on this to kind of see how this is going throughout the day. Obviously, we know how yesterday went towards the top of the standings. One point separated first and second place and who better than a current bolt and cold and rapid to go ahead and fill those spots up now. 30:14.140 --> 30:19.940 They just had an incredible run yesterday, both of these teams, and it was all about consistency. 30:19.940 --> 30:24.220 And obviously, you know, we're in this new little bit of competitive 4-0 where storm 30:24.220 --> 30:27.580 charges change and all these players are going to have to keep adjusting their strategies 30:27.580 --> 30:28.580 and everything like that. 30:28.580 --> 30:31.860 But what made it possible for these two teams to be all the way towards the top 30:31.860 --> 30:36.420 of the leaderboard was how consistently they were able to make it into the end game. 30:36.420 --> 30:39.740 And as we know exactly how that starts, it's going to start with some of the damage 30:39.740 --> 30:40.740 down. 30:40.740 --> 30:41.740 That's right, man. 30:41.740 --> 30:43.740 Let's take a look at some of these numbers. 30:43.740 --> 30:45.580 So we took a look at these, we were like, 30:45.580 --> 30:47.900 wait, hold on, you said how much damage? 30:47.900 --> 30:50.620 But yeah, I mean, as we compare the two duos, 30:50.620 --> 30:52.740 I think what's interesting is when we look at zones 30:52.740 --> 30:54.380 one to seven, eight point of bolts, 30:54.380 --> 30:55.780 they have more damage, right? 30:55.780 --> 30:59.180 But Kelly, when we flip on over to those later zones, 30:59.180 --> 31:00.380 it actually flips again, right? 31:00.380 --> 31:03.180 Bold and rapid now have more damage. 31:03.180 --> 31:04.940 Well, it's definitely indicative of their style, 31:04.940 --> 31:06.860 eight point of bolts, like to rotate early, 31:06.860 --> 31:09.540 establish themselves so they can get storm surge tags, 31:09.540 --> 31:12.300 whereas bold and rapid are definitely end game players 31:12.300 --> 31:14.420 destroying that mid and low ground. 31:14.420 --> 31:15.820 It is what they are known for. 31:15.820 --> 31:18.420 But Acron Bolt definitely has a different play style. 31:18.420 --> 31:20.940 If we can see it right there, first and foremost, 31:20.940 --> 31:22.420 zone one through seven Acron Bolts 31:22.420 --> 31:25.860 have more damage dealt than in the moving zones of the game. 31:25.860 --> 31:26.740 Like, that's crazy. 31:26.740 --> 31:28.580 Usually, you know, you're box to box with people. 31:28.580 --> 31:29.900 You're doing all that shock and damage. 31:29.900 --> 31:31.500 But what kicks it off is Acron Bolts 31:31.500 --> 31:33.340 are laying all the way on the north side of the map. 31:33.340 --> 31:35.020 They have access to a launch pad. 31:35.020 --> 31:37.340 They're, of course, going to combine the effects of a miss 31:37.340 --> 31:39.220 and an overdrive grenade to make sure 31:39.220 --> 31:42.220 they can fly as high as they possibly can. 31:42.220 --> 31:45.880 What this allows them to do is even though they're landing all the way on the north side of the map, 31:45.880 --> 31:53.220 they can kind of fly all the way across the map and still secure themselves a very good position inside of the zone. 31:53.220 --> 31:57.420 What this kind of allows them to do is base up, just deal all the damage that they need to do, 31:57.420 --> 32:01.620 like we saw in Zones 1-7, it's an incredible amount of damage that they are able to do. 32:01.620 --> 32:05.520 But because they're so safe, because they're able to land in those high priority spots, 32:05.520 --> 32:07.120 they don't really take any damage. 32:07.120 --> 32:08.920 And with the way that the new storm surge works, 32:08.920 --> 32:11.280 they're able to consistently make it through every single one 32:11.280 --> 32:12.120 of these end games. 32:12.120 --> 32:13.720 And that's why they're towards the top of the leaderboard 32:13.720 --> 32:15.440 right now. 32:15.440 --> 32:16.480 It's so crazy. 32:16.480 --> 32:18.080 We got to look at the other side then, right? 32:18.080 --> 32:19.120 We talk about the current bulls. 32:19.120 --> 32:20.720 We talk about cold and rapid. 32:20.720 --> 32:24.600 I think it's insane that we are coming in a single points 32:24.600 --> 32:25.100 difference. 32:25.100 --> 32:27.400 But for these guys, they're landing middle of the map, 32:27.400 --> 32:27.680 right? 32:27.680 --> 32:28.960 So talk to me about their strategy. 32:28.960 --> 32:31.560 What has led to them being so successful? 32:31.560 --> 32:33.560 I mean, it's cold, right? 32:33.560 --> 32:35.320 I think you just put that name right there 32:35.320 --> 32:37.600 and that everyone can see the pathway to success. 32:37.600 --> 32:40.880 When he is locked in, he really locks in. 32:40.880 --> 32:43.680 And cold and rapid have really shown themselves 32:43.680 --> 32:46.840 of kind of being able to just handle this mid-ground. 32:46.840 --> 32:48.840 They have the center of the map with 1,000, 32:48.840 --> 32:51.920 and they have these easy rotations in it. 32:51.920 --> 32:53.440 Yeah, it's gonna be a similar strategy 32:53.440 --> 32:54.800 to what Acron and Bolts are doing. 32:54.800 --> 32:55.640 A little bit different, right? 32:55.640 --> 32:57.280 Because they're not gonna be utilizing a launchpad, 32:57.280 --> 32:59.520 but because they do land center of the map, 32:59.520 --> 33:02.000 they're usually pretty close to all of the zones, right? 33:02.000 --> 33:04.240 They can kind of just walk over, face up, 33:04.240 --> 33:07.460 And again, from there on out, it's pretty much just the same thing. 33:07.460 --> 33:08.620 You've got this tall tower. 33:08.620 --> 33:10.360 You don't really take damage while you're in it, 33:10.360 --> 33:12.060 but you're in one of these high priority spots 33:12.060 --> 33:14.120 where a lot of teams are going to be rotating by. 33:14.120 --> 33:17.120 So you can get all the damage dealt that you need to 33:17.120 --> 33:18.180 and wrap it in cold. 33:18.180 --> 33:19.340 They're focused on one thing, 33:19.340 --> 33:21.580 and that's going to be getting cold to the end game finished. 33:21.580 --> 33:23.680 Day number one with the most eliminations. 33:23.680 --> 33:25.200 Guy was absolutely popping off. 33:25.200 --> 33:26.380 If it wasn't for that game, 33:26.380 --> 33:30.260 six little fumble between them and Venom and Curve, man, 33:30.260 --> 33:32.520 I think they would have a big lead right now. 33:32.520 --> 33:35.680 Oh man, it's a time for redemption, right? 33:35.680 --> 33:37.840 Day two will bring new things. 33:37.840 --> 33:40.200 A lot of players have taken time to just bottom review, 33:40.200 --> 33:42.160 take a step back, refresh themselves. 33:42.160 --> 33:44.080 And now we're thinking in six brand new games, 33:44.080 --> 33:45.520 anything can happen. 33:45.520 --> 33:46.800 Now before we continue the conversation, 33:46.800 --> 33:48.240 why don't we go meet up with our casters, 33:48.240 --> 33:50.080 Jacob B.R.s, MDF. 33:50.080 --> 33:50.920 Say hello. 33:52.300 --> 33:54.840 Well, today is gonna be a great day for sure, monster. 33:54.840 --> 33:57.200 We crowned FNCS champion, 33:57.200 --> 33:59.420 but as well as some of our duos are playing, 33:59.420 --> 34:02.100 I need to point out the individual factors 34:02.100 --> 34:03.580 that are going down in some of these games, 34:03.580 --> 34:06.180 these solo impact points that some of these guys 34:06.180 --> 34:07.260 are clutching up. 34:07.260 --> 34:10.260 We talk about the one point differential in first place. 34:10.260 --> 34:11.900 Well, look at that man on top of the list, 34:11.900 --> 34:15.060 Bolts, 88 solo impact points. 34:15.060 --> 34:18.100 You also got Curve and Peterbot, who are also in the top 10, 34:18.100 --> 34:20.980 OZ and Viv, who are also neck and neck on that meter board. 34:20.980 --> 34:24.220 So I'm even wondering when things don't go your way, 34:24.220 --> 34:26.180 you got to fill the plans out the window, 34:26.180 --> 34:28.020 how will these solos perform? 34:28.020 --> 34:29.180 Yeah, what's incredible about this 34:29.180 --> 34:31.540 is Bolts is the only one of all those players 34:31.540 --> 34:35.940 show there that is currently obviously in first place coming into day two. And what's 34:35.940 --> 34:42.820 more interesting is this is again a notorious duo that when Acorn comes back on day two style 34:42.820 --> 34:47.540 finals format he's usually better than we've ever seen him before. So he's still doing 34:47.540 --> 34:52.580 what he normally does. He had a relatively underperforming day one but Boltz is just 34:52.580 --> 34:57.860 going crazy really putting the team on his back really playing exceptional Fortnite 34:57.860 --> 35:00.560 And the highlights speak for itself there, Jacob. 35:00.560 --> 35:03.620 Yeah, and this is that was only day one action so far. 35:03.620 --> 35:07.220 Peterbot kind of at the bottom of that top five list, 50 points. 35:07.220 --> 35:09.940 And he's the one that kind of made those exciting clutches 35:09.940 --> 35:12.100 popular in the past couple of seasons. 35:12.100 --> 35:13.140 Will that change? 35:13.140 --> 35:13.980 I don't know. 35:13.980 --> 35:16.660 We still got six games to find out, Zeke, Kelly, and Vivid. 35:16.660 --> 35:18.980 What do you guys think? 35:18.980 --> 35:20.620 Jacob, you know, I love that you bring up 35:20.620 --> 35:21.860 their solo impact points, right? 35:21.860 --> 35:23.540 We think about if we, you know, 35:23.540 --> 35:25.340 pass our minds back to yesterday, game six. 35:25.340 --> 35:27.220 For a moment, I thought, is this a solo competition? 35:27.220 --> 35:30.820 because it's just every high-profile duo are all solos, right? 35:30.820 --> 35:33.180 And they come in to game number six, 35:33.180 --> 35:35.820 and they put on such a show. 35:35.820 --> 35:37.180 But we'll have to see, right? 35:37.180 --> 35:40.020 Like I said right before, with a brand new day, 35:40.020 --> 35:41.540 anything can happen, 35:41.540 --> 35:43.060 and we're excited to see what these players 35:43.060 --> 35:44.660 have prepared for us, 35:44.660 --> 35:46.340 because again, top 13, 35:46.340 --> 35:48.900 and we're also playing for an Axe of Champions. 35:48.900 --> 35:49.980 Now as we continue this conversation, 35:49.980 --> 35:52.180 why don't we talk about some of the players? 35:52.180 --> 35:54.500 We are excited to see visual and braids 35:54.500 --> 35:56.180 immediately comes to mind. 35:56.180 --> 36:00.140 fourth place currently with 311 points. 36:00.140 --> 36:02.620 Talk to me about these guys in the lens of life. 36:02.620 --> 36:05.260 What do you think they prepared coming in for day number two? 36:05.260 --> 36:09.380 I mean, for visuals and braids, I think they're just gonna, 36:09.380 --> 36:10.740 this is such a silly thing to say, 36:10.740 --> 36:13.220 but I think they're just playing standard Fortnite 36:13.220 --> 36:14.460 to the best. 36:14.460 --> 36:15.820 Bruce Lee once said, 36:15.820 --> 36:18.660 I don't hear the man that's done a thousand kicks one time. 36:18.660 --> 36:21.380 I hear the man that's done one kick a thousand times. 36:21.380 --> 36:23.140 And I feel like visuals and braids 36:23.140 --> 36:26.780 play the same game over and over and over again. 36:26.780 --> 36:28.860 They kind of have a little bit of a passive early game 36:28.860 --> 36:30.580 that they make sure to get a few tack. 36:30.580 --> 36:32.980 They go into the end game with just a little bit 36:32.980 --> 36:35.860 above storm damage, but they make sure to always enter 36:35.860 --> 36:38.660 the good, smart engagement, and then they disengage 36:38.660 --> 36:41.140 when they need to, and then they have a ton of heals 36:41.140 --> 36:43.740 because they didn't enter these early and mid engagements 36:43.740 --> 36:45.060 so that they're able to survive 36:45.060 --> 36:46.740 and make it all the way to the end. 36:46.740 --> 36:48.100 And although they're not able to grab 36:48.100 --> 36:50.260 a ton of eliminations, they are still able 36:50.260 --> 36:52.260 to get those placement points, but this right here 36:52.260 --> 36:54.340 is the number that I wanted to talk about, 36:54.340 --> 36:59.220 that they have played 10 consecutive FNCS finals together, 36:59.220 --> 37:02.420 more than any other team that we have in our region, 37:02.420 --> 37:03.460 and that would be hard press 37:03.460 --> 37:05.900 to find any other duo in the world. 37:05.900 --> 37:09.380 However, vivid, fun fact, the only other duo 37:09.380 --> 37:12.380 that has been on an FNCS finals together 37:12.380 --> 37:15.220 for 10 FNCS finals is you and me. 37:18.100 --> 37:20.220 That was really, I was really wondering 37:20.220 --> 37:27.220 What team that could have made 37:27.220 --> 37:29.220 it in? We have been here for a 37:29.220 --> 37:31.220 long time. Shout out to my duo 37:31.220 --> 37:32.220 partner here, Kelly. And of 37:32.220 --> 37:34.220 course, Zeke always keeping us 37:34.220 --> 37:35.220 on our toes. Man, I didn't know 37:35.220 --> 37:36.220 what I was going to say after 37:36.220 --> 37:38.220 that one. Visual brains fourth 37:38.220 --> 37:40.220 place on the lead. We're right 37:40.220 --> 37:41.220 now 28 points behind the first 37:41.220 --> 37:42.220 place. And I got to tell you 37:42.220 --> 37:43.220 K. I'm happy that you kind of 37:43.220 --> 37:44.220 broke it down because we 37:44.220 --> 37:45.220 talked about all the chaos 37:45.220 --> 37:46.220 kind of kind of me into the 37:46.220 --> 37:47.220 season with all the new 37:47.220 --> 37:48.220 duos. The fact that these 37:48.220 --> 37:49.220 guys have stuck together and 37:49.220 --> 37:56.220 out. And I gotta tell you, I'm looking at their match history over here and their last game yesterday was a 46 place with zero elimination. 37:56.220 --> 38:02.100 They got zero points that game. If they had a good game like they did in all the other games, it'd be in first place right now. 38:03.780 --> 38:09.460 For now, I hope you see that what what me and Vivid see all the time going to be threat of the broadcast is that Kelly is a menace. 38:09.460 --> 38:15.780 OK, what are we talking about? One last do it's hobby and I'm managed, you know, they're currently in fifth place, right? 38:15.780 --> 38:21.740 270 points but again what can we expect from these guys right a brand new day 38:21.740 --> 38:26.020 new strategy time to vaude review what are we thinking well you say the word 38:26.020 --> 38:30.020 new and that immediately makes me think of how this team formed and it's such a 38:30.020 --> 38:33.380 beautiful story to be written in conjunction with visuals and greats 38:33.380 --> 38:37.460 the diminished is the third of that trio that we saw them compete all last 38:37.460 --> 38:41.580 year together and we know that hobby was officially played with three throughout 38:41.580 --> 38:47.020 a four major one dropping literally the week that major one was starting. So to see Bobby and 38:47.020 --> 38:53.020 Aminish form together and be this new duo with that juxtaposition, but juxtaposition of visuals 38:53.020 --> 38:58.780 and braids being this long lasting duo and to see them still doing well playing to what their 38:58.780 --> 39:03.500 advantage is and once again that is just making sure that they are making it to the end game 39:03.500 --> 39:08.540 and I know that sounds silly vivid but when it comes to the FNCS sometimes that's the most 39:08.540 --> 39:09.820 It's the fourth thing. 39:09.820 --> 39:10.940 Does it sound silly at all? 39:10.940 --> 39:13.780 Consistency is key when it comes down to Fortnite. 39:13.780 --> 39:14.980 And right now these guys, 39:14.980 --> 39:18.020 they have an average time alive of 20 plus minutes. 39:18.020 --> 39:19.260 So they're kind of consistently making 39:19.260 --> 39:20.660 to those later stages of the game. 39:20.660 --> 39:22.780 A couple of fumbles I did see when I was kind of looking 39:22.780 --> 39:23.860 at some of our top teams 39:23.860 --> 39:26.780 and how many times they've been struck by storm surge. 39:26.780 --> 39:28.380 Unfortunately for Javi and Aminish, 39:28.380 --> 39:29.220 they were kind of up there. 39:29.220 --> 39:31.020 I think they each took like 20, 39:31.020 --> 39:32.020 around like 20 each, 39:32.020 --> 39:33.180 where some of our other top teams, 39:33.180 --> 39:34.380 I saw visuals and braids, 39:34.380 --> 39:36.180 zero times for both of those guys, 39:36.180 --> 39:37.420 acre and bolts, zero time. 39:37.420 --> 39:39.900 So, Albina managed just a couple of fumbles 39:39.900 --> 39:42.060 when the concerns storm surge, 39:42.060 --> 39:43.500 but if they could fix that, man, 39:43.500 --> 39:45.380 they could make a run for that top three, 39:45.380 --> 39:47.060 top two, they could win it too. 39:48.660 --> 39:50.700 Another duo we actually didn't talk about 39:50.700 --> 39:51.740 is currently in third place. 39:51.740 --> 39:54.700 Ages and Ritual, 331 points, Kelly. 39:54.700 --> 39:58.180 That's only eight points behind Acorn and Boltz. 39:58.180 --> 40:01.740 I mean, come on, we're gonna make this happen, right? 40:01.740 --> 40:03.180 Yeah, it's ages and Rituals. 40:03.180 --> 40:04.460 They already got a big group royale. 40:04.460 --> 40:06.060 They already got a second place. 40:06.060 --> 40:08.340 There's a few games where they're making it to the very end, 40:08.340 --> 40:10.100 and they're just not being able to stick together 40:10.100 --> 40:11.580 and survive to the very final moment. 40:11.580 --> 40:12.700 We'll talk about that. 40:12.700 --> 40:16.060 21st and 17th place game that we saw from yesterday, 40:16.060 --> 40:18.180 butagers and rituals are definitely where they can teach. 40:18.180 --> 40:19.020 It's crazy. 40:19.020 --> 40:21.380 Looking at this later board, literally any of our top eight 40:21.380 --> 40:23.220 could make some crazy plays today, David, 40:23.220 --> 40:25.180 and jump into that first place spot. 40:25.180 --> 40:26.340 I'm happy that you mentioned Toppy. 40:26.340 --> 40:27.420 What about Top seven? 40:27.420 --> 40:29.860 I see Klicks and Higgs sitting in seventh place right now. 40:29.860 --> 40:31.420 They started yesterday so hard. 40:31.420 --> 40:33.220 It looked like they were gonna run away 40:33.220 --> 40:34.100 with the competition. 40:34.100 --> 40:36.540 They're high again. It was so clean. 40:36.540 --> 40:38.780 I want to see them return to form today. 40:38.780 --> 40:41.580 Have a good six games and see where they end up. 40:41.580 --> 40:43.500 Good game. Will the rivalry continue, right? 40:43.500 --> 40:45.940 They're right behind Peter Bodd and Pollo, right? 40:45.940 --> 40:48.140 Only six points behind them. 40:48.140 --> 40:51.700 So there's just so much that can happen today. 40:51.700 --> 40:53.780 Six games to determine it all. 40:53.780 --> 40:56.620 Fortnite fan, we hope you are as excited as we are, 40:56.620 --> 40:59.380 but that being said, game seven is ready. 40:59.380 --> 41:00.500 Let's kick off the competition. 41:00.500 --> 41:01.900 Gassers, over to you. 41:01.900 --> 41:07.100 you know, coming into today monster, I'm looking at the leaderboard trying to get a 41:07.100 --> 41:11.300 feel of who actually has a chance to win. I went in my head all the way down to 8th 41:11.300 --> 41:14.620 place, Reed and Cooper, then I thought Cole and Madden, they're playing well, then to 41:14.620 --> 41:18.900 incur, they know how to take over games, threads and beer, they have been performing 41:18.900 --> 41:22.660 phenomenally. So when I come in today, I'm like, who do you really think can pull 41:22.660 --> 41:26.820 off the win? And that's the thing, you know, we have these teams that are notoriously 41:26.820 --> 41:31.540 better on day two, but then again, anything can happen. You see that breakaway performance. 41:31.540 --> 41:36.660 teams just get a little lucky. Some players just outperform play above and beyond their 41:36.660 --> 41:41.460 usual selves like we saw with bolts yesterday really taking it far here. So Jacob, I mean, 41:41.460 --> 41:46.100 I'm with you. I do think obviously if you're in the 300 point range, you got a great shot. 41:46.100 --> 41:52.580 You got to prove it first. 41:52.580 --> 41:58.900 Throughout day number one monster, we've seen big games over a hundred point games almost 41:58.900 --> 42:02.340 Every single one by at least one of those teams so I kind of agree with you 42:02.580 --> 42:05.820 It'd be crazy to think a lot of these teams can't catch up 42:05.820 --> 42:10.540 But with a day break in between a chance to bot review fix some of these mistakes 42:10.980 --> 42:16.700 You got a new chance at life the dragon pre on Jack and then they're still going head-to-head after split drop 42:16.700 --> 42:22.220 It is gonna be a 50-50 instead of trying to take two different sides and then getting tagged up down to 26 HP 42:22.220 --> 42:25.940 Jack as well they get the first stop on the dragon. He can't clean it up though 42:25.940 --> 42:31.940 He just falls short of that mark. Now it's gonna be up to end pen to try to push in when he gets taken down as well 42:31.940 --> 42:35.940 Creon really clutching up. Yeah, this is just on back and forth, you know 42:35.940 --> 42:39.540 Each team having their individual moments essentially, but 42:39.780 --> 42:45.540 Creon and a dragon in the end are gonna win and they go right into Electro and then he exposed himself 42:45.540 --> 42:49.340 And no, you know, they're gonna push here, especially after seeing the shield crack 42:49.340 --> 42:54.540 There's no reason not to and not only that don't forget Electro was playing really good yesterday 42:54.540 --> 42:58.060 I mean, they even got the best of them, knowing Earth at some point. 42:58.060 --> 43:00.460 So this is not a team that you could just push over. 43:00.460 --> 43:03.660 Yeah, I'm going to talk about adjustments from day one to day two. 43:03.660 --> 43:05.900 I'm sure one of those teams, they landed up here. 43:05.900 --> 43:06.980 They landed up Battlewood. 43:06.980 --> 43:08.260 They came back up here. 43:08.260 --> 43:10.500 So already you can see the feeling to start their day. 43:10.500 --> 43:12.500 We're going to do better off towards the top. 43:12.500 --> 43:14.020 Let these two teams fight it out. 43:14.020 --> 43:17.020 And let's try to crash as a third party and clean it up. 43:17.020 --> 43:18.140 Paper and Rezzi. 43:18.140 --> 43:19.340 A few struggles yesterday. 43:19.340 --> 43:22.140 Paper going down to a little bit of fall damage in the off-spawn fights. 43:22.140 --> 43:27.860 But one thing I've learned about paper over the last two years is he's someone I feel like you could never count out 43:27.860 --> 43:31.940 No matter how bleak it looks he's somebody that usually ends up inside of the bubble 43:32.180 --> 43:38.040 Yeah, he finds his way man when there's a will there's definitely a way in paper is a vet that's been around the block 43:38.660 --> 43:40.320 quite some time 43:40.320 --> 43:46.340 And all their teams I want to you know see a little bit more from today is obviously Venos team in the end game 43:46.340 --> 43:51.620 We saw how much of an explosive early game they had finding all those extra eliminations 43:51.860 --> 43:55.360 Rotating into teams like these that are lurking on the outskirts 43:56.240 --> 44:01.820 Coming in with a routine fight right now is the first for Neo noisy have zipped the down right now void 44:02.460 --> 44:05.460 Just playing roll around here trying to stay in the game right now 44:05.460 --> 44:08.540 They might have given a little too much space to work with here 44:08.540 --> 44:14.540 Being a 1v1 is a very interesting position. 44:14.540 --> 44:18.540 I truly don't want to let him get that red sod, but it's kind of hard. 44:18.540 --> 44:20.540 You almost need yourself open to getting tagged up. 44:20.540 --> 44:24.540 Once you play a little bit too aggressive, the third parties are all around on this side. 44:24.540 --> 44:26.540 He always can be up to clean up that first knock. 44:26.540 --> 44:28.540 The other nation side quickly goes in, gets the materials. 44:28.540 --> 44:34.540 That could be the difference maker in him surviving and going down to Nio is looking to impress him this fight. 44:34.540 --> 44:38.740 Definitely like what I'm seeing right now, but you know, the end of the day, 44:38.740 --> 44:43.340 Neo gets a little opportunity to back off and it's good for him to do that. 44:43.340 --> 44:48.840 You know, they understand the general area dynamic is that there are other duos here as well, right? 44:48.840 --> 44:52.940 This is no surprise to them at least, obviously. 44:52.940 --> 44:55.840 Given yesterday, they had all types of third parties show up. 44:55.840 --> 44:59.840 Tyler and Chance on the other side seem to be doing things a little differently here. 44:59.840 --> 45:04.880 From Battlewood they know that team is towards the south that's gonna be 45:04.880 --> 45:09.200 slipped into a pronto they're lurking up on one just a little cheeky shot not much 45:09.200 --> 45:12.440 confidence they realize they have the numbers advantage they're trying to take it 45:12.440 --> 45:16.340 while they can and instantly get that first knock on the slips without even 45:16.340 --> 45:20.000 taking too much damage monster that's one thing we always point out in 45:20.000 --> 45:23.560 moments like this it's great to get the elimination but how much damage did you 45:23.560 --> 45:27.240 take back because of surge threats veer winning their off-spawn fight as 45:27.240 --> 45:30.360 but you got to be careful, Vier was down to a sliver of HP. 45:30.360 --> 45:32.240 You know, talked about that damage exchange. 45:32.240 --> 45:34.000 That's not the kind of position you want to be in 45:34.000 --> 45:35.400 when you're finishing it up. 45:35.400 --> 45:40.000 A lot of it obviously gets it right back to the opponents. 45:40.000 --> 45:44.280 Such a different dynamic the way Serge plays out. 45:44.280 --> 45:46.400 Chance and Tyler doing a good job right here, though, 45:46.400 --> 45:49.280 pushing down Toronto, Toronto, missing those important shots 45:49.280 --> 45:51.280 that are at least going to buy him a little bit of room. 45:51.280 --> 45:53.480 Gets one kind of fire off, but in the end, 45:53.480 --> 45:54.920 Tyler chance to find themselves 45:54.920 --> 45:56.720 with a clean elimination here. 45:56.720 --> 46:01.700 and Jacob a lot of players are now officially eliminated this game 46:01.700 --> 46:07.200 we're down to just 76 or so you see even Peterbott there recognizing that they 46:07.200 --> 46:11.280 have to play for a big big game right now you know Peterbott someone that 46:11.280 --> 46:15.080 yesterday towards the tail and I did last two or three games seemed to be 46:15.080 --> 46:18.720 playing really aggressive in the early game. Yeah I think you kind of realized 46:18.720 --> 46:22.880 especially with a lot of these teams like Snagg, Peterbott, Boyle and even saw 46:22.880 --> 46:27.480 Acorn and Bolts in some instances, where they were either on the line of storm surge 46:27.480 --> 46:31.680 barely ahead or in some instances below that actual damage threshold, so sometimes 46:31.680 --> 46:35.400 you're gonna have to think differently and probably pull out one of your tricks. 46:35.400 --> 46:38.640 We know Peterbot can get aggressive and flip that switch in a moment's notice, 46:38.640 --> 46:41.960 but I think a lot of players are feeling that same way, whether they're 46:41.960 --> 46:44.720 contested or not. I think Kelly was one of the ones that spoke about the 46:44.720 --> 46:48.720 point differential in eliminations from a 1-point format, a 3-point format. 46:48.720 --> 46:51.120 This is four points for elimination. 46:51.120 --> 46:52.240 We've opened down yesterday. 46:52.240 --> 46:54.840 The very last major that we had in NA Central 46:54.840 --> 46:56.920 was decided by three points. 46:56.920 --> 46:58.120 That's one elimination. 46:58.120 --> 47:00.560 Honestly, that's two placings difference 47:00.560 --> 47:03.160 to winning the actual FNCS. 47:03.160 --> 47:05.320 Yeah, we saw like there was a moment yesterday 47:05.320 --> 47:06.880 when Klicks was going for that victory. 47:06.880 --> 47:09.920 Yeah, that they knew and he knew he had to risk it all. 47:09.920 --> 47:11.960 And he was willing to go into the storm 47:11.960 --> 47:14.720 just to try to secure those extra limitations. 47:14.720 --> 47:17.240 He knows better than anyone how close things 47:17.240 --> 47:19.240 You can get towards the end. 47:19.240 --> 47:22.240 You want to put it all on the table for G-Monster and Magma though, you see there. 47:22.240 --> 47:25.240 We have officially been exposed here. 47:25.240 --> 47:31.240 Yeah, that breaks all the bills. Get you a little bit of shield, but it doesn't really help when we're already full of shield. 47:31.240 --> 47:34.240 G-Monster is trying to go ahead and move in and help out Magma. 47:34.240 --> 47:39.240 Even he takes a big shot, takes the base, and that goes one attack from the other side. 47:39.240 --> 47:42.240 Once he's there, still trying to put pressure, playing a little bit more careful. 47:42.240 --> 47:46.080 It doesn't have shield to easily get one shot of here instead of using it 47:46.080 --> 47:49.960 He's just trying to put down pressure with that go but now the bagma and G money have healed up 47:49.960 --> 47:52.320 It might be a wise decision to finally pop those yields 47:53.640 --> 47:58.360 Eventually that wave will burst through this area and break all the bills if you're ready for it 47:58.360 --> 48:01.840 Plenty with a cheeky angle landing some good shots on the G money yet again 48:01.840 --> 48:06.440 This is such a cost-serf over by year with 20 a neck goes to having a huge advantage 48:06.440 --> 48:13.880 Great angles however they've already gone through two of their flowberry miss so big investment so far this has to come to a 48:14.600 --> 48:18.940 screeching halt here soon or it's not gonna be looking good for anyone involved in this 48:19.600 --> 48:21.360 fight right now 48:21.360 --> 48:24.720 G money jumps back over get some of those extra deals and 48:25.360 --> 48:27.360 They're trying to find the exit strategy 48:28.200 --> 48:30.200 It's not every day you see fights going down 48:30.200 --> 48:37.100 Underneath in these tunnels where there's kind of the two ways in and out that you kind of work through the news 48:37.100 --> 48:38.600 They want exit 48:38.600 --> 48:42.880 So we'll see if that fight does continue on either teams do try to disengage now 48:42.880 --> 48:47.060 But about the oil this time around I know you talked about that one elimination 48:47.060 --> 48:51.040 This is my teams are getting more and more comfortable rotating towards really short 48:51.120 --> 48:56.220 Maybe I feel count for yesterday one of the big focal points of their strategy was building that massive search 48:56.220 --> 49:00.620 tower just outside towards the gas station. The teams are maybe saying, hey, we can go in, 49:00.620 --> 49:05.100 sneak some, maybe try to get out. But a different change of pace for Peter Bottenpoio. They're 49:05.100 --> 49:09.580 actually going in, looting up the entire POI. So for CDZ and Raven, this might be a chance for 49:09.580 --> 49:15.180 them to lurk or get caught off guard. Yeah, definitely. Or you can think about how aggressive 49:15.180 --> 49:18.700 they were playing. They were actually leaving their PO out to try to fight other teams. So 49:19.660 --> 49:23.420 for CDZ and Raven, maybe some of their strategy revealed to them like, 49:23.420 --> 49:26.260 We can kind of come around, they might not even be here. 49:26.260 --> 49:28.900 Clearly not the case here in the end of the 1. 49:28.900 --> 49:31.860 Virtual Agers can quite catch a lurk onto visual embrace. 49:31.860 --> 49:35.020 That would have been a massive elimination right there. 49:35.020 --> 49:37.900 One that would have surely shaken up the leaderboards. 49:37.900 --> 49:41.460 Even that bow team's are neck and neck right now. 49:41.460 --> 49:43.460 Visual embrace, getting lucky enough here, 49:43.460 --> 49:46.300 and don't let their guard down. 49:46.300 --> 49:47.500 Yeah, this is the end. 49:47.500 --> 49:49.500 The blessing and the curse for visual embrace, though, 49:49.500 --> 49:51.900 is because in the last game of the day yesterday, 49:51.900 --> 49:55.740 they went down to a team lurking on this exact spot. 49:55.740 --> 49:59.440 Visual braids for the most part since they land just outside of Dark Dominion on this 49:59.440 --> 50:01.160 split drop and there's mountains. 50:01.160 --> 50:04.200 And then on top of that monster at center zone, how much better can it get? 50:04.200 --> 50:08.780 They usually stay here for the first four to five zones depending on where it pulls 50:08.780 --> 50:12.400 and consistently gets damaged because no matter where the zone goes, north, south, 50:12.400 --> 50:14.900 east, or west, the chances are very, very high. 50:14.900 --> 50:19.000 Teams will have to rotate around visual braids in order to get inside of the 50:19.000 --> 50:20.000 zone. 50:20.000 --> 50:24.520 Just make it a huge focal point of their strategy. So if you guys watched review yesterday coming in today 50:24.520 --> 50:26.880 You can kind of see that in terms of visual upgrades 50:26.880 --> 50:29.160 Maybe you can try to plant around it the acorn and bolts 50:29.680 --> 50:35.520 You'll be fit breaking down their rotation from the backside of their PLI that long launch pad that they mixed 50:35.800 --> 50:38.800 Utility and another instance of that as they put to get to the 50:40.000 --> 50:43.720 One of two teams that had a near perfect day for the most part 50:43.720 --> 50:48.720 Not really dropping on rounds, but uh-oh, Huckabelle team is falling short right now. 50:48.720 --> 50:50.720 You have three fallen here. 50:50.720 --> 50:54.720 Off from a team in the distance, Muzzins Finks recognize the danger immediately after the 50:54.720 --> 50:59.720 Flauvering mist comes down and in they go to get the finish up right there. 50:59.720 --> 51:03.720 It does seem like they are now rewarded with all that extra loot. 51:03.720 --> 51:09.720 Cooper rotates right into CDC Raven, puts down some good pressure onto Raven there. 51:09.720 --> 51:14.380 Do they recognize there could be just the solo here on the other side of the wall? 51:14.380 --> 51:21.100 That is the question here. I think Cooper knows that he's a big danger here, so off he goes and it's just continuously getting worse 51:21.100 --> 51:27.180 Look at where he's rotating into Peterbot and Boyo and they're one team for certain if they know you're a solo 51:27.180 --> 51:33.100 Especially isolated like this. They're gonna go they see Cooper trying to rotate in big damage coming out from the boat 51:33.100 --> 51:37.100 The bum Cooper backed up against the wall. They continuously tried to create in just one of those shots 51:37.100 --> 51:40.800 He needs to breathe through the build in order to connect, in order to get that elimination. 51:40.800 --> 51:43.900 But Cooper is lifted, moving in and outside of these builds, dropped the fizz, 51:43.900 --> 51:45.900 is able to get minimal amount of shield. 51:45.900 --> 51:50.100 At least they have to help him survive this onslaught, at least for an extra couple of seconds here. 51:50.100 --> 51:52.600 But Peterbottenpoio continuously on the look again. 51:52.600 --> 51:56.400 They know this player, Cooper, is a solo, so they're not going to stop it. 51:56.400 --> 51:58.400 So they said pure that elimination. 51:58.400 --> 52:02.600 Four more points for Peterbottenpoio in a game that's looking very, very accelerated. 52:02.600 --> 52:05.600 Gifted. Gifted that time around as well. 52:05.600 --> 52:10.080 just landing right on them as they were trying to finalize their metal reserves for the 52:10.720 --> 52:15.120 mid game here. Meanwhile, look at this, Venom in curve. No Elums just yet. This is definitely a 52:15.120 --> 52:21.680 huge surprise to us as we've seen them be overly consistent when it comes to Elums in the early game. 52:23.600 --> 52:27.200 What does Venom gonna do? Is he gonna chop this down? Like I'm curious at this point. 52:27.840 --> 52:31.840 It's much easier to chop than some of the metal and brick faces that we're seeing. He's going 52:31.840 --> 52:36.400 for it doesn't look like a beaver king got the signal yet after they're dropping down 52:36.400 --> 52:40.080 this is it's actually Venom yeah this was actually Venom's maze so maybe they had an 52:40.080 --> 52:44.800 inkling he was gonna lurk on over not sure if they got the audios or not but it would 52:44.800 --> 52:51.040 survive a potential disaster there is Venom just scurries away reunites back curve already 52:51.040 --> 52:55.280 has his base set up at one of the main buildings north side of the battlewood boulevard but 52:55.280 --> 52:59.760 you see where the zone is actually pulling so you see why Venom and Curve are taking 52:59.760 --> 53:03.120 at a different mountain or a different approach to this game than usually every other. 53:03.120 --> 53:08.760 It's definitely interesting here, almost edited the whole base down, just have to break the 53:08.760 --> 53:09.760 extra piece of wood here. 53:09.760 --> 53:12.760 We're working out though in the end. 53:12.760 --> 53:17.440 Brett's beer on the other side, there's two Elans here, have them set up and it's 53:17.440 --> 53:19.120 a bit of a different end game for us, right? 53:19.120 --> 53:21.920 We have riptides in the zone right now. 53:21.920 --> 53:25.600 See how this ends up playing out. 53:25.600 --> 53:30.760 All the zones that came this way pretty much Klicks and Higgs performed absurdly well. 53:32.260 --> 53:37.320 See if they can continue to pick up the pace here and propel themselves back into a top three position. 53:37.320 --> 53:44.760 Cold and Rapid on the other side were the team that was finding all those eliminations in the end game, right? 53:44.760 --> 53:50.040 The amount of success Cold and Rapid managed to string together when it came to end game eliminations. 53:50.040 --> 53:56.760 Clearly showed understanding Jacob given that he had just an insane amount of points based off the Elim's alone 53:57.080 --> 54:03.800 Yeah, in five games much that 30 eliminations with their worst game being a seventh place 54:04.360 --> 54:09.240 Unfortunately that last game of the day. They got one elimination. They went down in 26 place 54:09.240 --> 54:12.560 So outside of placement points all they got is those Elim's 54:13.400 --> 54:18.760 Acorn and bolts who've been consistent all of day one to get that one point lead with a victory Royale 54:18.760 --> 54:20.760 See how things continue to shake out. 54:20.760 --> 54:22.760 Javi and a Minish here, sitting on the leaderboard. 54:22.760 --> 54:24.760 Fifth place going into this game. 54:24.760 --> 54:26.760 And this is where there's a little bit more of a gap. 54:26.760 --> 54:29.760 Everybody in the top four has 311 points or more. 54:29.760 --> 54:34.760 Javi and a Minish are sitting at 270 points on the overall tournament. 54:34.760 --> 54:37.760 You can see 15th place with four eliminations. 54:37.760 --> 54:40.760 What's going to be their starting game and each and every one about better. 54:43.760 --> 54:45.760 Minish Javi here on the move. 54:45.760 --> 54:46.760 Playing the outside. 54:46.760 --> 54:53.480 I kind of like this right using this storm to tank here and go for the north side definitely is a strat now 54:53.480 --> 54:56.160 This is team that didn't tank storm early right today 54:56.160 --> 55:01.920 Actually have the luxury Jacob here to take a little bit of storm right other teams will find themselves more and the storm sickness 55:02.080 --> 55:08.920 Kind of danger zone, but where they are zone is right into them now, and you have relatively strong positioning here 55:09.920 --> 55:14.080 On that mountain so you can easily pull off of that mountain, but if you're up there 55:14.080 --> 55:18.620 You can shockwave off, you can go ahead and take high or just simply use the running shockwave for a couple of distance. 55:18.620 --> 55:24.120 Fit zone, going into 6, so it is going to be a 2-tick of damage if you're inside of the storm. 55:24.120 --> 55:27.400 You can change it to a 5 in about 20 seconds when it does close. 55:27.400 --> 55:31.560 But you're seeing why a lot of these teams are staggering themselves so long into the storm. 55:31.560 --> 55:36.820 They have extra white HP heals and they just want to dodge all the chaos of this mid game. 55:36.820 --> 55:41.360 Particularly, you will take damage from other players trying to rotate in. 55:41.360 --> 55:48.840 Visual and brave, they spot out max, they spot out mobbings in the distance, you see them kind of building and butt rotating parallel, they actually don't take too much damage. 55:48.840 --> 55:54.400 Bucky and Xen, though, they're in the fray in the mix, you see them either targeting up and down below that damage threshold. 55:54.400 --> 56:01.520 As the dust settles, they're gonna fall below, but Xen once again takes some damage, 103, and he gets a good shot coming up from Bucky on the power. 56:01.520 --> 56:06.280 Fact of fact, to get the elimination as well, that sends them flying up that dorm, search lead board. 56:06.280 --> 56:10.680 That was crazy. Big performance, big opportunity there for Bucky to keep his team in the game now. 56:10.680 --> 56:14.600 They went from danger territory to well above and safe now. 56:14.600 --> 56:16.840 They just have to survive the onslaught and look at this. 56:16.840 --> 56:20.040 They eliminated that team long before they can even get situated 56:20.040 --> 56:23.960 and start digging into the heels that they were pretty much saving up here in the reserves. 56:23.960 --> 56:27.960 But Ritual, it is not looking good for him right now as he is down and out. 56:27.960 --> 56:29.480 This is all up to Agers now. 56:29.480 --> 56:31.240 He's putting his team on the back here. 56:31.240 --> 56:33.080 It picks up a little bit of the loot that was left over, 56:33.080 --> 56:34.840 but couldn't quite get the extra heal here. 56:34.840 --> 56:39.840 We'll see if he ends up having time to double back now as the zone is pushing there, there it is. 56:39.840 --> 56:42.840 And luckily for him, I mean, the pressure eases up. 56:42.840 --> 56:47.840 Now, we are in the endgame, right? So, Agers is positioned just well enough with shockwaves, 56:47.840 --> 56:50.840 all the extra mats and heels here to actually clutch this out 56:50.840 --> 56:53.840 and turn this still into a positive sum game for them. 56:53.840 --> 56:56.840 Yeah, it's 264 above the damage threshold. 56:56.840 --> 56:59.840 That can teeter-totter, but ten more of the dome goes. 56:59.840 --> 57:02.840 Easy try to go ahead and grab shots on the players rotating through the sky. 57:02.840 --> 57:07.280 It's not the only solo there, you see Salt and some others on that side of the map. 57:07.280 --> 57:12.740 Probably easing the tension though, since they're all soloed, the games are getting pressed on hard to be very, very slim. 57:12.740 --> 57:19.200 As opposed to this side of the map where you have Peterbot play on a few other duos positioned 600 above the damaged threshold. 57:19.200 --> 57:24.180 And you're seeing almost a different approach to start the games yesterday, to start the games today. 57:24.180 --> 57:28.440 Yesterday they were elevated pretty high up in most of these end games, going from zone to zone. 57:28.440 --> 57:31.360 this time around they're gonna start at the low ground and probably elevate 57:31.360 --> 57:36.600 themselves with each and every passing zone. Gonna have to definitely find some 57:36.600 --> 57:40.520 new positioning not sure if I've ever seen Udvah and all you'll be so passively 57:40.520 --> 57:47.120 tucked in the low ground on the backside of zone here. Look at this, the zone's gonna pull far into way. 57:47.120 --> 57:50.360 Now again they have that natural terrain to play off of here so they're 57:50.360 --> 57:54.160 gonna get a lot of value for their shockwaves. Real catch is if opponents 57:54.160 --> 57:59.280 start to base up sooner rather than later and get pretty much a bit of that high ground they will 58:00.000 --> 58:05.760 be able to be opened up to a bunch of fire, threats and deer find themselves below the 58:05.760 --> 58:09.440 serves they're actually trying to out survive this waiting for the moving zone here as opposed to 58:09.440 --> 58:13.360 taking for a fight right now so is the team that's going to be fishing for damage here on the 58:13.360 --> 58:19.920 moving storm? Yeah, 126 below even with that contested off spawn fight you got to imagine 58:19.920 --> 58:23.660 Since it is off spawn, 100 HP if they took damage, 58:23.660 --> 58:26.800 they saw some spears down to a sliver of HP at one point to start the game. 58:26.800 --> 58:28.960 So, just because you're contested, 58:28.960 --> 58:31.980 just because you win doesn't mean it's all joy at the end of the day. 58:31.980 --> 58:35.080 Like duo right doesn't look like their first attempt is going to be down-fielder, 58:35.080 --> 58:37.680 but 17 players need to go down. 58:37.680 --> 58:39.780 They're just on that line. 45 damage. 58:39.780 --> 58:43.620 The spot skidler and his duo above are trying to get one of those shots to bleed through. 58:43.620 --> 58:47.480 They have the Thunderburst with consistent pressure, but no luck on their side. 58:47.480 --> 58:49.200 60 below taking damage. 58:49.200 --> 58:52.780 They have no extra heels monster in this moment. They are going to jump above 58:53.720 --> 58:57.200 It's not going to be a thing but they need to persist and try to put down the pressure 58:57.200 --> 59:00.760 It's just because they're ahead here doesn't mean they're gonna be ahead in the next zone 59:01.400 --> 59:03.680 Peter Bob Boyer though continues to do what they do 59:03.680 --> 59:07.280 He said that they were looking uncharacteristically position on the backside of zone 59:07.280 --> 59:09.880 You can see it's ending up playing out in their favor 59:09.880 --> 59:13.960 They find it Elon here and then they rotate in smoothly right afterwards 59:13.960 --> 59:19.180 But when you start looking up towards height when you start looking at who's trying to position for the big win once again? 59:19.180 --> 59:25.180 here, it's Klicks and Higgs. I love that they're trying to take on this identity as a high ground 59:25.180 --> 59:30.540 team and one that's willing to put everything on the line doing it. Yep, you don't know, you've seen 59:30.540 --> 59:35.900 so many instances yesterday with team after team after team sending it for that high ground trying 59:35.900 --> 59:40.780 to fight. Agers was one of them but it's not going to be one of them in this game 77 below the 59:40.780 --> 59:45.180 damage threshold by himself tries to sneak a shot in on the jargon and Corillian doesn't 59:45.180 --> 59:51.180 find any luck there. He needs to be persistent because he is out of yield. 165 HP. He can only take 59:51.180 --> 59:56.780 about eight ticks of his zone total. Even if he was full health, those ticks are being a huge 59:56.780 --> 01:00:01.500 difference. Make sure you're forcing him to try to make a play here. 145 is going to be able to make 01:00:01.500 --> 01:00:05.580 an above on that last one because the shock wave up somebody else and out of his turn to try to 01:00:05.580 --> 01:00:10.060 shock wave any. He takes that same amount of damage. The blessing here though monster for 01:00:10.060 --> 01:00:13.820 him is Storm surge just deactivated. That's right. We are inside that top 40 from the 01:00:13.820 --> 01:00:26.020 The high ground though, Klicks and Higgs doing exactly what they do best, already finding several sets of elimination, little extra damage onto what look to be curving Higgs there, but while we look away, Zen tries to come up here. 01:00:26.020 --> 01:00:35.120 This is of course Bucky and Zen trying to make a play for Hyatt, but Klicks and Higgs shut it down and they remain successfully in control here at the moment now. 01:00:35.120 --> 01:00:39.120 Do keep in mind, they committed very early here and they didn't have Max material. 01:00:39.120 --> 01:00:44.720 All that they're trying to do right now is show that they are willing to dominate Hyde here and play for the win. 01:00:45.600 --> 01:00:50.960 Yeah Higgs finally getting that elimination getting cleaned up for Buzzy. Look towards the back side of the zone trying to find the move. 01:00:50.960 --> 01:00:57.920 Instead he finds Tyler Chance. Not sure if they see Peter Bottenpoil either. They're going to shockwave to the front. Not just yet going for Hyde. 01:00:57.920 --> 01:01:03.680 We still got a few more zones. That's the possibility but if we look at their material counts they might have to get an elimination first. 01:01:03.680 --> 01:01:05.000 Muzzles need to be above. 01:01:05.000 --> 01:01:07.480 Acorn and Boltz down below in the mud. 01:01:07.480 --> 01:01:09.840 Find themselves two more eliminations here. 01:01:09.840 --> 01:01:12.080 Acorn not getting one, so no sight for Gramps. 01:01:12.080 --> 01:01:13.640 We have to be a lot into the zone. 01:01:13.640 --> 01:01:15.680 Not a lot on the Chug-Chug either, 01:01:15.680 --> 01:01:18.400 so a dangerous position here for Acorn to be in. 01:01:18.400 --> 01:01:20.040 And there's opponents in the storm as well. 01:01:20.040 --> 01:01:23.160 Boltz is someone left behind here trapped in the build. 01:01:23.160 --> 01:01:25.680 Meanwhile, Cold and Rapidoe, a single elan, 01:01:25.680 --> 01:01:27.400 but this is where we've seen them do best. 01:01:27.400 --> 01:01:29.240 I won't count Cold out any further 01:01:29.240 --> 01:01:30.400 as I've done that once before 01:01:30.400 --> 01:01:35.280 I mean the mistake by saying so Venom curve on the other side have four eliminations 01:01:35.280 --> 01:01:40.440 Fresh we're coming in here. This is what we wanted to see from Venom and curve yesterday 01:01:40.440 --> 01:01:44.860 Just couldn't quite figure out their end game and find their footing 01:01:44.860 --> 01:01:48.000 But now here we are seeing a stronger than ever venom 01:01:48.280 --> 01:01:53.840 And they have almost maxed out materials compared to everybody else here Bob Boyle running out trying to get into the box 01:01:53.840 --> 01:01:59.400 They don't find any opportunities there so they just continue on get into the front side of the zone chug chug 01:01:59.400 --> 01:02:09.400 Higgs being forced out of the zone, it's Salt and a Duff, a whole new team entering into the mix, ready to make day number two count here. 01:02:09.400 --> 01:02:17.400 They already have those three eliminations, they're looking up, making sure nobody else is up there. They don't see anybody, so they immediately set their eyes back to down low. 01:02:17.400 --> 01:02:24.400 And that was the distraction. That was the mistake. Flying from outside of the zone, Curve and Beto are now our new teams on high ground. 01:02:24.400 --> 01:02:27.400 curve and Beto are now our new teams on high ground. 01:02:27.400 --> 01:02:30.400 Excellent execution as well from practice 01:02:30.400 --> 01:02:31.400 to putting it into play here. 01:02:31.400 --> 01:02:33.400 Curve and Beto have the high ground here. 01:02:33.400 --> 01:02:34.400 No heels though, so we'll keep an eye on them. 01:02:34.400 --> 01:02:37.400 Oyo is down and now Peterbott left to clutch us up by himself. 01:02:37.400 --> 01:02:39.400 He makes it right into the top 10. 01:02:39.400 --> 01:02:41.400 It's a little bit of HP there, but unfortunately 01:02:41.400 --> 01:02:42.400 we'll fall just short. 01:02:42.400 --> 01:02:45.400 Now curve and Beto assessing the situation here. 01:02:45.400 --> 01:02:46.400 They have matched the play with. 01:02:46.400 --> 01:02:48.400 They have the height and the distance from the rest 01:02:48.400 --> 01:02:50.400 of the opponents, but can they put the pressure down? 01:02:50.400 --> 01:02:53.400 Yeah, coming into this game, intense plays on the lead 01:02:53.400 --> 01:02:54.700 on the lead of board. 01:02:54.700 --> 01:02:55.800 That's where they have hoped. 01:02:55.800 --> 01:02:57.200 And one thing we were both questioning 01:02:57.200 --> 01:03:00.000 is what is going wrong in their mid to end games. 01:03:00.000 --> 01:03:01.500 Because if they can make it there, 01:03:01.500 --> 01:03:02.800 they can make the plays happen. 01:03:02.800 --> 01:03:04.440 And they're showing it here early in game number one. 01:03:04.440 --> 01:03:06.200 Cold and Rapid get pushed. 01:03:06.200 --> 01:03:07.240 Poe goes down. 01:03:07.240 --> 01:03:08.560 A sacrifice for Rapid. 01:03:08.560 --> 01:03:10.360 He gets the heal, and he's trying to get out. 01:03:10.360 --> 01:03:12.240 Wagers goes down to Muzz and Speaks. 01:03:12.240 --> 01:03:14.880 This is just chaos ensuing on the low ground. 01:03:14.880 --> 01:03:17.000 And for Muzz and Speaks, they might be the only duo 01:03:17.000 --> 01:03:19.640 left alive down below, because Rapid goes out. 01:03:19.640 --> 01:03:20.920 Alo goes down. 01:03:20.920 --> 01:03:23.700 They have full control of the bottom side of the map. 01:03:23.700 --> 01:03:25.260 Now they can just get a little bit of material 01:03:25.260 --> 01:03:26.500 off one of these refreshes. 01:03:26.500 --> 01:03:28.220 They'll be in huge shape here. 01:03:28.220 --> 01:03:29.860 It's actually fight for the win right now. 01:03:29.860 --> 01:03:32.220 There it is, the most important elan. 01:03:32.220 --> 01:03:34.700 Venom and Curve are really down and out. 01:03:34.700 --> 01:03:36.380 They're pretty much down bad here. 01:03:36.380 --> 01:03:39.220 This is gonna come down to all of Hector's seat. 01:03:39.220 --> 01:03:41.540 See Venom just trying to use the audio visual. 01:03:41.540 --> 01:03:45.700 The mythic pump takes down Sphinx, gets the siphon, 01:03:45.700 --> 01:03:47.900 or at least he's trying to keep himself alive, 01:03:47.900 --> 01:03:51.500 playing disruptor against Maz, Curve, and Beto. 01:03:51.500 --> 01:03:55.380 Start day number one, game seven on fire. 01:03:55.380 --> 01:03:58.300 And Beto is that guy, he's the guy that we knew 01:03:58.300 --> 01:04:00.420 that coming into a second day, 01:04:00.420 --> 01:04:02.500 he's gonna tweak the game plan, 01:04:02.500 --> 01:04:04.420 he's gonna make sure he's gonna be able 01:04:04.420 --> 01:04:05.900 to perform here, Jacob. 01:04:05.900 --> 01:04:07.620 And they did just that. 01:04:07.620 --> 01:04:09.300 Let a win for them right there 01:04:09.300 --> 01:04:12.060 to go and wrap up the first game here on the second day. 01:04:12.060 --> 01:04:15.260 Game seven, Z is now officially wraps. 01:04:15.260 --> 01:04:25.260 I can't believe this guy's eye. 01:04:25.260 --> 01:04:27.260 I thought to myself game one has 01:04:27.260 --> 01:04:29.260 to start strong right like the 01:04:29.260 --> 01:04:31.260 game one of six today has to 01:04:31.260 --> 01:04:33.260 start strong and curve in the 01:04:33.260 --> 01:04:36.260 Venom get a nine Elim victory 01:04:36.260 --> 01:04:39.260 Royale Kelly 01:04:39.260 --> 01:04:43.820 Oh, yeah, Kelly, I'm loving it. 01:04:43.820 --> 01:04:45.420 Yes, you are, but they are. 01:04:45.420 --> 01:04:47.060 And I think that there was a lot of us wondering 01:04:47.060 --> 01:04:49.380 if they were losing it after day number one, 01:04:49.380 --> 01:04:50.940 ending the day off in 10th place, 01:04:50.940 --> 01:04:53.340 which, you know, reasonably isn't that bad of a position. 01:04:53.340 --> 01:04:54.420 But when it's curve and then oh, 01:04:54.420 --> 01:04:56.740 we were kind of expecting them to be in the top five 01:04:56.740 --> 01:04:58.140 after day number one. 01:04:58.140 --> 01:05:00.780 But if they continue to play like this vivid, 01:05:00.780 --> 01:05:02.740 they're able to run that mid game 01:05:02.740 --> 01:05:05.260 and then wait for that opportune moment to steal height 01:05:05.260 --> 01:05:07.220 just like they did in game number seven. 01:05:07.220 --> 01:05:12.220 Then I can imagine we'll be seeing Curve and Venno climbing up that leaderboard as the day goes on. 01:05:12.220 --> 01:05:18.220 I mean Venno coming over to NA, he was one of those players that people were kind of expecting to see up on the high ground 01:05:18.220 --> 01:05:24.220 and that conversation kind of fizzled out. It felt like kind of coming into these grand finals, clicked an eggs, beat a bottom player. 01:05:24.220 --> 01:05:27.220 It was the two main contenders that everybody was kind of talking about. 01:05:27.220 --> 01:05:34.220 And it feels like finally in game number seven, we get to see exactly why those initial thoughts of Venno looking to control the high ground 01:05:34.220 --> 01:05:39.260 the higher gun were even a thing to begin with and I gotta tell you this is very very scary for 01:05:39.260 --> 01:05:43.980 this grand finals and everybody that was above Venno and Curve at the start of today because 01:05:43.980 --> 01:05:50.940 yesterday and day number one they did not have any singular game but they got better than 10th 01:05:50.940 --> 01:05:56.460 place this was their first time jumping into the single digits of placements and they win it 01:05:56.460 --> 01:06:00.860 and they look disgusted I mean that shot right there from Venno you guys couldn't see me my 01:06:00.860 --> 01:06:06.940 Jull was literally as far down as it possibly could go it looks like he's in form right now 01:06:07.500 --> 01:06:09.020 duo's looking good 01:06:09.020 --> 01:06:14.140 They made it to the end game all the way and they were on the higher ground. I don't know. I'm scared 01:06:15.020 --> 01:06:20.940 Oh my gosh. This is why sometimes we talk about like day two teams right day two take out back even stronger 01:06:21.580 --> 01:06:29.020 Has venno been set free is he off the leash is he going crazy? Oh wow, okay, okay 01:06:29.020 --> 01:06:32.600 Don't worry, we still have five games left to go. 01:06:32.600 --> 01:06:36.140 We're going to take a short break, but when we come out, come back, you know we have to 01:06:36.140 --> 01:06:39.940 take a look at those savings because there's been some changes. 01:06:39.940 --> 01:06:40.940 We'll see you in just a minute. 01:07:59.020 --> 01:08:01.020 Oh 01:08:29.020 --> 01:08:31.020 I'm just... 01:08:31.020 --> 01:08:33.020 I'm gonna hit you. 01:08:33.020 --> 01:08:35.020 I'm gonna get my... 01:08:35.020 --> 01:08:37.020 I'm gonna get my... 01:08:37.020 --> 01:08:39.020 I'm gonna get my... 01:08:39.020 --> 01:08:41.020 I'm gonna get my... 01:08:41.020 --> 01:08:43.020 Wait, it's your mistake. 01:08:43.020 --> 01:08:45.020 I'm good! 01:08:45.020 --> 01:08:47.020 I'm good! 01:08:47.020 --> 01:08:49.020 Oh, my God! 01:08:49.020 --> 01:08:51.020 I'm good! 01:08:51.020 --> 01:08:54.020 And I don't know how to feel about it! 01:08:54.020 --> 01:08:56.020 You're not used to losing. 01:08:56.020 --> 01:08:58.020 Going beaten? 01:08:58.020 --> 01:09:01.020 These players are just so locked in. 01:09:01.020 --> 01:09:04.020 Could it be the milk? 01:09:04.020 --> 01:09:06.020 Mm-hmm. 01:09:06.020 --> 01:09:08.020 Pfft. 01:09:08.020 --> 01:09:10.020 Aah! 01:09:10.020 --> 01:09:13.020 Aah! 01:09:13.020 --> 01:09:15.020 It's okay. 01:09:15.020 --> 01:09:17.020 Aah! 01:09:17.020 --> 01:09:19.020 Aah! 01:09:19.020 --> 01:09:21.020 Stay there. 01:09:28.020 --> 01:09:48.020 game one of the day. Seven 01:09:48.020 --> 01:09:50.020 overall goes over to curve and 01:09:50.020 --> 01:09:52.020 Venom not in the he limb 01:09:52.020 --> 01:09:55.020 victory roll out now I mentioned 01:09:55.020 --> 01:09:56.680 before the break. 01:09:56.680 --> 01:09:59.160 These standings are gonna shift. 01:09:59.160 --> 01:10:00.400 Kelly called out, yeah, 01:10:00.400 --> 01:10:02.200 Curvin' Venil were in the top 10. 01:10:02.200 --> 01:10:03.440 You know, that's kind of crazy. 01:10:03.440 --> 01:10:07.040 But you know, Kelly, it just takes one game of Fortnite 01:10:07.040 --> 01:10:09.520 to kind of change everything around. 01:10:09.520 --> 01:10:11.280 And of course, wouldn't you know it, 01:10:11.280 --> 01:10:12.800 Curvin' Venil have actually jumped up 01:10:12.800 --> 01:10:15.080 from that 10th place. 01:10:15.080 --> 01:10:17.560 327 points, I guess, Kelly, 01:10:17.560 --> 01:10:18.920 without spoiling it. 01:10:18.920 --> 01:10:19.880 Where do you think they landed? 01:10:19.880 --> 01:10:21.960 I'm gonna answer for you, top five! 01:10:21.960 --> 01:10:28.680 that's just what we were talking about and you can see that calling from sundown for many 01:10:28.680 --> 01:10:32.640 years ago, the chupaning is happening right now from first to fifth place, we have around 01:10:32.640 --> 01:10:38.760 a 71 point difference and we know that 71 points easily gained in a single game vivid. 01:10:38.760 --> 01:10:42.600 So to see Curve and Venom who are at the bottom of this list and page number one, jump 01:10:42.600 --> 01:10:47.460 up all the way. I feel like not only inspires me, but also inspires the rest of the lobby 01:10:47.460 --> 01:10:51.680 to do the same. Yeah, huge for them to go ahead and do this and come into today, 01:10:51.680 --> 01:10:58.960 I kind of already talked about how many points they are behind right now coming into the day after the first six games on day number one 01:10:59.200 --> 01:11:02.600 Irvin Venom when they were sitting in 10th place and corner up and we're sitting in first 01:11:04.200 --> 01:11:09.640 113 points was the difference between Venom curve and first place after day number one like how you mentioned 01:11:09.640 --> 01:11:15.920 They're now 71 points behind which means that they closed the gap that game by 42 points 01:11:15.920 --> 01:11:21.760 So technically speaking if we were to run that exact game number seven back two more times 01:11:22.600 --> 01:11:25.100 Curvin Venno would be in first place right now 01:11:25.100 --> 01:11:30.680 And it thinks possible these standings are a lot closer than it currently may seem and Zeke 01:11:30.720 --> 01:11:36.460 Can we just talk about this elimination column? How in the heck are these guys leading right now? 01:11:36.460 --> 01:11:38.460 They have 40 eliminations 01:11:38.580 --> 01:11:42.620 They are getting active vivid. That is what's crazy, right? 01:11:42.620 --> 01:11:48.780 The overall placement they have may not be the craziest right, but I mean when you have four 01:11:49.620 --> 01:11:55.620 40 eliminations 40 they have an average placement of 17, but it doesn't matter right 01:11:55.620 --> 01:11:58.860 This is what that difference maker was that additional point from elives 01:11:58.860 --> 01:12:03.580 But guys also just look at this leaderboard right look at the little numbers right next to their placement right 01:12:03.580 --> 01:12:07.020 We see bold and rapid a corner bulls they swap places 01:12:07.020 --> 01:12:11.480 but everyone else besides Beno and Curve have not moved. 01:12:11.480 --> 01:12:14.360 Right, that top six, right before they jumped in here, 01:12:14.360 --> 01:12:16.920 are all pushing forward together. 01:12:16.920 --> 01:12:18.760 It's so insane. 01:12:18.760 --> 01:12:21.360 I mean, even looking like Peterbott and Pollo 01:12:21.360 --> 01:12:23.860 and Klicks and Higgs, and now we also have to look 01:12:23.860 --> 01:12:26.560 at Javi in a minute because Klicks and Higgs 01:12:26.560 --> 01:12:28.900 are now tied with them points-wise, 01:12:28.900 --> 01:12:32.340 but Peterbott and Pollo are only 10 points ahead of them. 01:12:32.340 --> 01:12:35.140 I just can't believe how close all of this 01:12:35.140 --> 01:12:40.700 has become after a single game Kelly. Yeah, and I mean, we're taking a quick 01:12:40.700 --> 01:12:43.700 look at Peterbot and Paulio right now and that looked actually like that 01:12:43.700 --> 01:12:48.180 could have been a very successful game for them. However, Peter was a solo 01:12:48.180 --> 01:12:51.820 player towards the end right there and did go down, I believe, in ninth place. 01:12:51.820 --> 01:12:54.220 There was a moment in that game though where it looked like they were 01:12:54.220 --> 01:12:56.860 taking a peek up onto height. They saw that it was clicks and higgs and 01:12:56.860 --> 01:12:59.780 for sure I thought they were gonna go and steal for height again, but it 01:12:59.780 --> 01:13:02.380 didn't look like it went that way for them to did it. However, it does 01:13:02.380 --> 01:13:05.580 seems like they're already starting to change up their strategy just a little bit 01:13:05.580 --> 01:13:09.020 from what we saw from day number one. So I can expect some more changes as well 01:13:09.020 --> 01:13:09.820 as the day goes on. 01:13:09.820 --> 01:13:14.380 I saw a little bit more aggressive plays out of them. I mean we're kind of used to 01:13:14.380 --> 01:13:17.460 that and past season did look like they were going for a couple of extra fights. 01:13:17.460 --> 01:13:21.540 But once again we jump over them when they're in the end game and they just 01:13:21.540 --> 01:13:24.940 have nothing you know no builds to kind of work with. Not sure what's 01:13:24.940 --> 01:13:27.940 happening on some of those rotates to where they have to invest so much 01:13:27.940 --> 01:13:31.580 stuff but we have not been able to see Peter Barton play would be healthy 01:13:31.580 --> 01:13:35.020 enough in the endgame to kind of push for any of these victory royals. 01:13:36.060 --> 01:13:39.820 You know, and that's, it's tough because this is just the first game of the day. 01:13:39.820 --> 01:13:42.700 We have five more, but we also can't really skip a beat. 01:13:42.700 --> 01:13:43.260 Can we move it? 01:13:43.260 --> 01:13:49.260 Like we need to make sure now more than ever, we are minimizing those little mistakes or whatever. 01:13:49.260 --> 01:13:51.100 Like again, look at the top of the leaderboard, right? 01:13:51.100 --> 01:13:54.780 We came in, Acorn and Boltz was one point ahead because of this last game. 01:13:54.780 --> 01:13:58.620 Acorn and Boltz fell in 12th place with only two Elans. 01:13:58.620 --> 01:14:02.860 You look up, hold and wrap it, a fourth place with three. 01:14:02.860 --> 01:14:07.340 This is gonna come down to this over like the next five games, right Kelly? 01:14:07.340 --> 01:14:12.540 A single mistake. Everybody is taking steps farther and farther up the leaderboard. 01:14:12.540 --> 01:14:16.540 The single mistake will suddenly shift everything and enough of those chains 01:14:16.540 --> 01:14:20.620 together, suddenly the point thresholds are gonna see that patented 01:14:20.620 --> 01:14:22.220 shoofening like Sutton down called out. 01:14:23.260 --> 01:14:26.700 Well, you say these single mistakes and I think in a reflection of that is 01:14:26.700 --> 01:14:28.420 is that you can't just have these teams 01:14:28.420 --> 01:14:30.180 that are kind of playing a little passively 01:14:30.180 --> 01:14:31.260 by the placements. 01:14:31.260 --> 01:14:33.100 Maybe they get a hand full of elimination. 01:14:33.100 --> 01:14:34.940 You need these teams that are able to pull out 01:14:34.940 --> 01:14:36.340 these pop-off games. 01:14:36.340 --> 01:14:38.180 And that is why Cold and Rapid, 01:14:38.180 --> 01:14:40.380 although they might not be having these wins 01:14:40.380 --> 01:14:43.300 that all these other teams in our top five are having, 01:14:43.300 --> 01:14:45.900 they did have that 11 elimination second place. 01:14:45.900 --> 01:14:48.020 So these pop-off games are now what's gonna be 01:14:48.020 --> 01:14:50.660 separating our top from the rest of the lobby. 01:14:51.580 --> 01:14:52.500 Cold and Rapid, man. 01:14:52.500 --> 01:14:53.820 They continue to be consistent. 01:14:53.820 --> 01:14:55.580 They're trying to pull away. 01:14:55.580 --> 01:14:57.740 a couple of teams are on the hunt, 01:14:57.740 --> 01:14:59.580 five more games to do it. 01:14:59.580 --> 01:15:02.340 Oh man, let's get right back into a game. 01:15:02.340 --> 01:15:04.660 Eight is ready, so casters, take it away. 01:15:06.580 --> 01:15:09.140 Monster, they're talking about five games left. 01:15:09.140 --> 01:15:11.420 It almost feels like that's a lot of time. 01:15:11.420 --> 01:15:14.500 You and I both know these games will go quick. 01:15:14.500 --> 01:15:16.420 We already seen accelerated game one 01:15:16.420 --> 01:15:18.220 in terms of eliminations. 01:15:18.220 --> 01:15:20.860 Yeah, definitely that game one started off so fast. 01:15:20.860 --> 01:15:23.340 We looked up, 76 players were eliminated 01:15:23.340 --> 01:15:25.100 or left in the lobby. 01:15:25.100 --> 01:15:27.100 There was no first kind of surge warning 01:15:27.100 --> 01:15:29.500 that we're really used to seeing with AD+, 01:15:29.500 --> 01:15:31.700 so we just kind of jumped into the mid game 01:15:31.700 --> 01:15:33.180 and things were so different. 01:15:33.180 --> 01:15:36.220 The dynamic, you can tell, is already shifting, 01:15:36.220 --> 01:15:38.500 you know, to something new in the air here 01:15:38.500 --> 01:15:40.300 and our top team just starting to break away. 01:15:40.300 --> 01:15:42.920 So let's just go on the battle bus one more time. 01:15:48.180 --> 01:15:51.620 Standing's are just getting so much closer 01:15:51.620 --> 01:15:53.740 than ever before and you can even look down 01:15:53.740 --> 01:15:59.560 That qualification spot into the top 13 that is as stacked as the race at the top with leaderboard 01:15:59.560 --> 01:16:04.320 So have our eyes peeled up both the top and those qualifications funds throughout the day 01:16:04.320 --> 01:16:08.160 But curve and then oh when I was kind of looking at some of those stats 01:16:08.160 --> 01:16:14.160 There are five the top five players in damage curve and Venno are two of those five players 01:16:14.160 --> 01:16:18.560 Both of these guys are firing all cylinders and this is when we were going into the heat sponsor 01:16:18.560 --> 01:16:22.880 I'll talk about the naked but this team obviously the accolades aren't there on curve 01:16:22.880 --> 01:16:27.960 but it reminds me so much of that 3D and Venom duo that dominated EU for so long. 01:16:27.960 --> 01:16:33.040 Yeah, I could definitely see it and you know, we called it out at several different points last time. 01:16:33.040 --> 01:16:39.760 Game 1, Kermin, Venom's ability to ambush multiple teams of different vending machines was honestly commendable 01:16:39.760 --> 01:16:43.720 and then we tuned in like 8, 3, 4 and they have like 7 ELIMS in the early game. 01:16:43.720 --> 01:16:50.440 So clearly they have figured that part out and if today it's all in games with Venom and Kerv, 01:16:50.440 --> 01:16:53.220 I mean all they've been doing all season long is practicing 01:16:53.840 --> 01:16:57.160 Psycho and Freight in dominating right and in late 01:16:57.160 --> 01:17:01.680 This is the third time now then it'll basically makes ending two of which he went for high ground 01:17:01.680 --> 01:17:05.580 So he's showing us if he's got a shot at it, they're gonna take it 01:17:06.440 --> 01:17:09.940 Seen so many teams are the kind of a merge and their game plan set in stone 01:17:09.940 --> 01:17:12.940 These quick off spawn fights really proved to kind of be the difference 01:17:12.940 --> 01:17:15.280 They're taking Mafia against Jack and N-Pen already 01:17:15.360 --> 01:17:18.000 One of the nations being cleaned up by N-Pen 01:17:18.000 --> 01:17:21.840 Mafia is going to be the one going down but they kind of switch up their drop spot a little bit. 01:17:21.840 --> 01:17:26.240 It's not too far away from the split drop towards the left but they're actually cool committing to 01:17:26.240 --> 01:17:31.360 the south side of Bridget Fortress this time around. Not sure if it's a bus path change or an 01:17:31.360 --> 01:17:36.240 overall game plan adjustment but for Jack and N-Pen that might be the difference maker but 01:17:36.240 --> 01:17:40.720 you got to be careful because you got Minnish on the other side, you got Oason and Scare on 01:17:40.720 --> 01:17:44.880 the north side so it's not going to be as free as it seems. There's a lot going on here 01:17:44.880 --> 01:17:51.880 Definitely, they're kind of in the mix here now. They do have, like you said, that early healer here, so the single player left in the duo 01:17:51.880 --> 01:17:57.140 just gotten out trying to buy his time here. Seems like he finally finds an opportunity to jump back in the mix. 01:17:57.140 --> 01:17:58.640 Jack has to come through the rescue. 01:17:59.240 --> 01:18:05.680 And he's getting way in. There it is, but oh my gosh! What a shot by the tick here! 01:18:06.800 --> 01:18:11.960 And this is, this is what, you know, this is what happens at the highest level of play, right Jacob? 01:18:11.960 --> 01:18:13.800 Like, anything can happen. 01:18:13.800 --> 01:18:17.040 Pros do have their moments where they end up clutching up. 01:18:17.040 --> 01:18:20.680 And although he does get full finish here, 01:18:20.680 --> 01:18:21.560 it doesn't matter. 01:18:21.560 --> 01:18:24.160 N-Pen is now in a much worse position. 01:18:24.160 --> 01:18:25.560 Yeah, N-Pen is just hoping. 01:18:25.560 --> 01:18:27.640 Hoping that O's Siv and Scare get bored. 01:18:27.640 --> 01:18:28.840 They don't look for him. 01:18:28.840 --> 01:18:30.360 And you can kind of see in the feed 01:18:30.360 --> 01:18:32.360 that N-Pen did not get eliminated. 01:18:32.360 --> 01:18:34.120 But in comes Dragon and Freon. 01:18:34.120 --> 01:18:36.440 This might be a blessing for N-Pen to try to get out. 01:18:36.440 --> 01:18:37.960 He does have the zipline, though. 01:18:37.960 --> 01:18:39.560 Leaves you open to take a shot. 01:18:39.560 --> 01:18:41.520 Cree on Dragon, not slowing down. 01:18:41.520 --> 01:18:45.200 Big shot on Ozy to push him back into the box. 01:18:45.200 --> 01:18:46.680 They have to try to find a way out. 01:18:46.680 --> 01:18:47.960 Cree on there on the other side. 01:18:47.960 --> 01:18:49.280 They even get the roof, Dragon, 01:18:49.280 --> 01:18:51.360 and pull a brush on this fight. 01:18:51.360 --> 01:18:52.440 It gets Ozy to scare. 01:18:52.440 --> 01:18:53.800 They already get the first dock. 01:18:53.800 --> 01:18:55.480 Cree on with the other angle. 01:18:55.480 --> 01:18:58.120 They get a pull on White. 01:18:58.120 --> 01:18:59.600 They play that perfectly as well. 01:18:59.600 --> 01:19:01.080 Even that weakened wall there, 01:19:01.080 --> 01:19:03.360 Wild Dragon distracted from the high ground 01:19:03.360 --> 01:19:05.560 and then takes it at the prime time there. 01:19:05.560 --> 01:19:07.120 The timing just couldn't have been better. 01:19:07.120 --> 01:19:10.000 looks terrorist trap, caught with his pickaxe out. 01:19:10.000 --> 01:19:11.880 Just not much you can do here. 01:19:11.880 --> 01:19:15.600 Meanwhile, Falcons, Peterbot and Boyo back at it. 01:19:15.600 --> 01:19:17.720 This time up to Chris and Drew. 01:19:18.840 --> 01:19:20.400 We've seen this fight happen before. 01:19:20.400 --> 01:19:23.160 The last time Chris and Drew were left, 01:19:23.160 --> 01:19:25.120 almost inch channels chased across 01:19:25.120 --> 01:19:26.600 a big section of the map. 01:19:26.600 --> 01:19:28.960 And it seemed pretty similar when the zone was 01:19:28.960 --> 01:19:32.200 kind of keeping squiggly in play. 01:19:32.200 --> 01:19:34.000 They essentially went for the battle. 01:19:34.000 --> 01:19:41.040 I think Peterbombo's early on are willing to take some of these risks because Peterbot 01:19:41.040 --> 01:19:43.440 takes a big shot course to back up. 01:19:43.440 --> 01:19:46.880 They didn't necessarily win the trades here when it comes to Serds because they're going 01:19:46.880 --> 01:19:50.920 to have to go back on over to Squibby where in essence they do have almost infinite yields 01:19:50.920 --> 01:19:53.080 that do spawn up over towards that rip. 01:19:53.080 --> 01:19:56.560 But Riptide saw threats in beer. 01:19:56.560 --> 01:19:58.680 Win the fight in that last game. 01:19:58.680 --> 01:19:59.680 Beer almost going down. 01:19:59.680 --> 01:20:03.920 You can see it kind of led into them being affected by storm surge, but 01:20:04.320 --> 01:20:09.520 Mako and Planks, a team that qualified out of frigid fortress with a victory royale 01:20:09.520 --> 01:20:11.520 And just changing up their drop spot here again today 01:20:11.680 --> 01:20:16.960 And that's sometimes what you have to do from day one to day two. You hit the bot. You forgot what changes you can make 01:20:18.000 --> 01:20:24.800 Threats and veered successful in the last game this time Threats is left to play this one out by himself at least here at the start 01:20:24.800 --> 01:20:30.200 And once again though Jacob I'm looking at that overall player count 78 remaining so 01:20:30.920 --> 01:20:37.120 It seems like the early day jitters are out the window here and now here's back to curve and Venom playing 01:20:37.680 --> 01:20:43.180 Similar to the last time it made sense why there was that big wooden basis. It's just that early game strategy 01:20:44.200 --> 01:20:46.200 Committing here to play for a search tower 01:20:46.200 --> 01:20:54.080 We're going to give up all the loot to Curve right now, you know Curve is kind of I wouldn't 01:20:54.080 --> 01:20:57.640 say the mastermind by any means, but he's the main guy, the main source of their early 01:20:57.640 --> 01:21:01.920 game damage, trying to get Surge, you see them break and open the tops of buildings and 01:21:01.920 --> 01:21:05.760 that way nobody can safely lurk nearby and and I think that's one thing for certain 01:21:05.760 --> 01:21:09.720 because we saw Venno try to make that attempt in that last game, lurk back towards 01:21:09.720 --> 01:21:14.400 a Surge base that was momentarily stolen and I just wonder if that's why you 01:21:14.400 --> 01:21:17.800 You see a lot of these search bases, monster, metal, brick. 01:21:17.800 --> 01:21:21.240 Rental and Curve for the most part, they built it in wood. 01:21:21.240 --> 01:21:22.680 Yeah, they know it's temporary. 01:21:22.680 --> 01:21:25.520 They don't want to track too much attention. 01:21:25.520 --> 01:21:28.680 And maybe when it's wood, it kind of signals to other people, 01:21:28.680 --> 01:21:30.880 no one's going to be based up in wood, right? 01:21:30.880 --> 01:21:33.040 Surely not. 01:21:33.040 --> 01:21:34.200 So a part of the strategy. 01:21:34.200 --> 01:21:35.160 Mine games I play here. 01:21:35.160 --> 01:21:37.520 HQ been cryptid due to everybody up there. 01:21:37.520 --> 01:21:43.040 So from solo now, back to the lobby there. 01:21:43.040 --> 01:21:46.520 A little update here, holding rapid. 01:21:51.320 --> 01:21:56.360 Our threat's going down, though, and we're in that huge boss, you know, coming into this game alone. 01:21:56.360 --> 01:21:57.680 They're in a leavened place. 01:21:57.680 --> 01:22:02.560 They're 20 points ahead of the line 13th place for that summit land spot. 01:22:03.720 --> 01:22:07.840 So they're going to have to really hope the rest of the competition doesn't fare as well in this game, 01:22:07.840 --> 01:22:11.560 kind of giving them a couple of chances to close out the day before more games left for them. 01:22:11.560 --> 01:22:19.000 Five over all including this one for cold and rapids kind of business as usual set up center map over at dark dominion 01:22:19.240 --> 01:22:22.160 Cold was able to get the mythic chaos reloader 01:22:22.160 --> 01:22:26.540 And you can see all sorts of goodies that they have multiple pizzas medkits 01:22:26.840 --> 01:22:32.560 So they can honestly stay here just like they normally do rotate late and just kind of have that search that yeah 01:22:32.560 --> 01:22:39.640 At least four or so games yesterday. I think whenever we tuned in essentially they had a mythic shotgun or AR or otherwise 01:22:39.640 --> 01:22:43.920 So they have had a fair amount of success and a little bit of luck 01:22:44.920 --> 01:22:46.240 running their 01:22:46.240 --> 01:22:48.000 Loadout situation 01:22:48.000 --> 01:22:50.000 Molten acorn in a fight against 01:22:50.800 --> 01:22:55.180 It's a bit of a messy when you see other teams, but they're influence into the mix here 01:22:55.480 --> 01:22:59.080 They're on their ammo into the bucket if you will 01:23:00.040 --> 01:23:02.040 Electro man just sneak out the side though 01:23:03.000 --> 01:23:05.680 Put some stuff in between those firing shots 01:23:09.640 --> 01:23:21.120 They don't want to overstay their welcome here shockwave outside of range for acorn and 01:23:21.120 --> 01:23:25.600 bulls, so they end up in the range of Poland that possibly performing well so far on day 01:23:25.600 --> 01:23:26.600 number one. 01:23:26.600 --> 01:23:30.680 It's like that ultra looking to get aggressive here, making for some early surge or elimination 01:23:30.680 --> 01:23:35.520 depending on what they're looking for, they want to try to fly up that leaderboard. 01:23:35.520 --> 01:23:38.560 There are four teams directly in this location, 01:23:38.560 --> 01:23:40.240 8-point and bolts all the way towards the north, 01:23:40.240 --> 01:23:42.000 and a couple teams stacked up in between. 01:23:42.000 --> 01:23:44.680 All of that information, 01:23:44.680 --> 01:23:46.120 did the past couple of shock waves, 01:23:46.120 --> 01:23:47.640 and I do think they're making the right decision. 01:23:47.640 --> 01:23:49.360 Focus on getting into zone, 01:23:49.360 --> 01:23:51.000 instead of staying on a stack range. 01:23:51.000 --> 01:23:52.560 Especially if they're loadouts. 01:23:52.560 --> 01:23:54.320 Yeah, they don't have nothing. 01:23:55.320 --> 01:23:56.840 A couple of fished up floppers already, 01:23:56.840 --> 01:23:58.400 they're gonna have to get their material count back. 01:23:58.400 --> 01:23:59.440 But you saw there, 01:23:59.440 --> 01:24:01.840 they thought they were spotted out, 01:24:01.840 --> 01:24:03.360 that's why they based up, 01:24:03.360 --> 01:24:05.000 almost defensively out the gate, 01:24:05.000 --> 01:24:06.220 which gave a lecture to the signal. 01:24:06.220 --> 01:24:07.780 Yeah, wait a second. 01:24:07.780 --> 01:24:09.400 These dudes are hiding from us. 01:24:09.400 --> 01:24:11.840 Maybe we should take this fight. 01:24:11.840 --> 01:24:12.680 Things that he's out though. 01:24:12.680 --> 01:24:14.120 Peterbot and Pollo back at it right now, 01:24:14.120 --> 01:24:16.120 finding CDZ and Raven here. 01:24:16.120 --> 01:24:17.960 It's like the worst nightmare for CDZ and Raven. 01:24:17.960 --> 01:24:20.120 You know, we gave them a lot of grace yesterday 01:24:20.120 --> 01:24:22.720 as we watched them continue to improve game to game, 01:24:22.720 --> 01:24:24.960 but whatever they're doing right now, 01:24:24.960 --> 01:24:27.440 they're ending up in the war path with Peterbot and Pollo. 01:24:27.440 --> 01:24:28.840 I don't like it. 01:24:28.840 --> 01:24:30.300 I'm sure they don't either. 01:24:31.640 --> 01:24:34.080 Hey, they almost got the down onto Pollo. 01:24:34.080 --> 01:24:35.720 That's an immediate non-factor. 01:24:35.720 --> 01:24:37.280 He does get that elimination. 01:24:37.280 --> 01:24:38.240 It almost makes you wonder, 01:24:38.240 --> 01:24:40.440 is he just integrated and rotated in towards Swibly 01:24:40.440 --> 01:24:41.280 in that last game? 01:24:41.280 --> 01:24:43.640 They did not fight Peterbot and Foyle. 01:24:43.640 --> 01:24:44.600 So they're probably thinking like, 01:24:44.600 --> 01:24:46.440 Peterbot and Foyle, they're not going to be here. 01:24:46.440 --> 01:24:47.760 They're going to rotate on out. 01:24:47.760 --> 01:24:51.280 This time a whole different plan for Pete and Foyle. 01:24:51.280 --> 01:24:52.760 They stay around Swibly short. 01:24:52.760 --> 01:24:54.560 They spot out, the team rotates in, 01:24:54.560 --> 01:24:56.560 and they just fight for those elimination. 01:24:56.560 --> 01:24:59.320 Eight more points for them 01:24:59.320 --> 01:25:01.560 as they continue to rise up that meter board. 01:25:01.560 --> 01:25:04.040 They closed the gap already with game number one. 01:25:04.040 --> 01:25:10.600 And they're already close to the gap again depending on how many eliminations that curve and bento have been able to get so far 01:25:10.600 --> 01:25:15.000 This game started with a 13 point lead between fifth and sixth place. Well, they've already cut it down to five 01:25:15.720 --> 01:25:21.040 Put some pigs want to do that as well. I mean clearly the number one problem with their entire 01:25:22.320 --> 01:25:24.840 Situation right now so they need way more eliminations 01:25:24.840 --> 01:25:28.840 They came into this with roughly 15 or so if you look at all the teams on the top 10 01:25:28.840 --> 01:25:32.840 And they are definitely towards the bottom, the Elim activity. 01:25:32.840 --> 01:25:35.840 Their placement points are exceptional, you know. 01:25:37.840 --> 01:25:39.840 And I mean, they even do have those two wins. 01:25:39.840 --> 01:25:41.840 Like, let's not forget that, right? 01:25:41.840 --> 01:25:43.840 That's super impressive all in all. 01:25:45.840 --> 01:25:48.840 For a moment yesterday, I had me believing the Plex Higgs, 01:25:48.840 --> 01:25:50.840 first time FNCS champions. 01:25:50.840 --> 01:25:52.840 It's good to be able to channel that. 01:25:52.840 --> 01:25:54.840 They're not going to get high elimination games. 01:25:54.840 --> 01:25:56.840 They really start picking up consistent placements. 01:25:56.840 --> 01:26:02.480 It's inside of the top five is ages and ritual uncontested at Sandy's trip for the most part. This is one of those people 01:26:02.480 --> 01:26:04.480 Why we don't see very very many teams 01:26:04.960 --> 01:26:07.160 Rotate in and around. I think they know how aggressive 01:26:07.680 --> 01:26:13.720 Ritual ages and how long they actually stay at this POI to protect that many machine get some early surge 01:26:14.040 --> 01:26:19.760 And avoid rotating around so they don't take any free damage to some of these other teams rotate late the next couple of 01:26:19.760 --> 01:26:25.480 Zones, but for hobby and a minish they've already made it priority to rotate in towards the zone not too far away 01:26:25.480 --> 01:26:28.920 If you look at the main map, those little blue arrows, yep, that's visuals, that's braids. 01:26:28.920 --> 01:26:32.920 Kind of taking a page out of their playbook, elevate themselves on a mountain in the center 01:26:32.920 --> 01:26:35.560 of zone and hopefully teams make mistakes rotating by. 01:26:35.560 --> 01:26:37.320 Yeah, their strategy hasn't changed. 01:26:37.320 --> 01:26:41.040 I mean, even last game was not too bad and they could have just pushed it a little bit 01:26:41.040 --> 01:26:42.040 further. 01:26:42.040 --> 01:26:47.200 They'd be sitting still inside a third, but 16th is still an end game, you know, 01:26:47.200 --> 01:26:48.200 overall. 01:26:48.200 --> 01:26:52.640 However, the big points have to really add up if you break into the top 10, 01:26:52.640 --> 01:26:54.040 Most of that top five. 01:26:56.440 --> 01:26:57.500 I'm in Sphinx here. 01:26:57.500 --> 01:26:58.720 Don't see Sphinx. 01:26:58.720 --> 01:27:01.320 Yeah, looks like he must have been caught 01:27:01.320 --> 01:27:02.720 in some of the action here. 01:27:04.040 --> 01:27:06.120 Look, Jacob, we were talking about how fast, you know, 01:27:06.120 --> 01:27:08.000 the first like two zones have played out, 01:27:08.000 --> 01:27:09.840 and then from then till now, 01:27:09.840 --> 01:27:11.760 it's almost as if no one's been eliminated. 01:27:11.760 --> 01:27:13.960 We're still at that 76th player mark. 01:27:15.440 --> 01:27:16.480 That's almost the feeling of 01:27:16.480 --> 01:27:18.880 somebody's contested drop to the surrounding lands 01:27:18.880 --> 01:27:19.960 with a little bit of freedom 01:27:19.960 --> 01:27:21.640 because everybody has that time limit 01:27:21.640 --> 01:27:26.400 They have to drop they have to get their move they have to mad up. They have to grab their resources 01:27:26.400 --> 01:27:32.480 So maybe that's the little window of opportunities some of these teams are going ahead and taking for their 01:27:35.520 --> 01:27:37.520 Way out here 01:27:37.520 --> 01:27:41.320 He's going to be the name of the game if you're looking to make up with some of those points 01:27:41.320 --> 01:27:46.440 You've seen Venom and Curve already doing it we've seen Peter bot come online with doing it in instances 01:27:46.440 --> 01:27:49.500 We talked about some of the solo punch in fact points monster 01:27:49.500 --> 01:27:51.900 Agers wasn't necessarily on that list 01:27:51.900 --> 01:27:55.680 But if we would have kept the list going for these last couple of games added on top of that 01:27:55.680 --> 01:27:59.140 Agers did move I believe into the top five of solo punch players 01:28:00.500 --> 01:28:05.600 This is a great kind of position to start catching up how about visual and bridge is a journey right look at this 01:28:05.640 --> 01:28:11.200 The zone's pulling south and it's actually favorable for them because they have some distance from the edge 01:28:11.200 --> 01:28:16.900 And they can see all of these potential opportunities of teams that have to move long before them 01:28:16.900 --> 01:28:20.040 So they have their clear pathway to success to overdrive out 01:28:20.360 --> 01:28:24.960 And then they have teams all in the distance here to kind of pick a part in the process meanwhile though clicks 01:28:25.120 --> 01:28:29.440 It's actually a world of trouble why in the world when he ended up out of dark dominion 01:28:29.440 --> 01:28:33.100 Wolves just have to figure that one out here in a second these lost clicks in the process 01:28:33.880 --> 01:28:35.880 Higgs 01:28:35.880 --> 01:28:41.280 big part of their game plan here and you can see it almost looks like they might have been rotating underneath not sure 01:28:41.640 --> 01:28:46.120 Why rapid and cold could be down there, but you can see why they're getting aggressive 01:28:46.120 --> 01:28:48.120 There's me 01:28:48.360 --> 01:28:53.080 Above the damage threshold makes actually push it right back in. Let's go on the offensive 01:28:53.400 --> 01:28:58.760 I'm not sure if this is the plan right now or just to simply try to push them back for the free reboot card either 01:28:58.760 --> 01:29:01.280 Way a great play coming out from clicks 01:29:01.280 --> 01:29:08.520 probably knowing that cold was weak a lot of HP missing and he's actually going to be able to steal away a pizza out of 01:29:09.020 --> 01:29:11.020 the hand of mold and a rapid 01:29:11.020 --> 01:29:17.280 It's just a matter of folding rapid rotating out clicks probably checking to make sure and now everybody is out of dark dominion 01:29:17.280 --> 01:29:20.660 So even though in this moment monster, it looks like disaster strikes 01:29:21.120 --> 01:29:25.040 They're gonna have a breath of fresh air and time to breathe if you can get that reboot off 01:29:25.040 --> 01:29:31.680 The only thing I can think of it if we will have to go to a replays to find out he had to have been fighting for Higgs his reboot card 01:29:31.680 --> 01:29:36.000 Right. There's no way he's just gonna go challenge a team like that 01:29:36.000 --> 01:29:38.840 I think like not for no reason at least not as a solo 01:29:39.640 --> 01:29:44.200 In the end though, it plays off. He ends up doing exactly what he needs to do and he comes out ahead 01:29:44.200 --> 01:29:48.800 You know the extra pizza boxes definitely gonna be a huge one for them, especially given that they're in the zone right now. 01:29:48.800 --> 01:29:54.400 Peterbot Puyo though, in a bit of a standoff right now, and they have the zone, okay, this is actually perfect. 01:29:54.400 --> 01:30:00.900 800 damage above, material count not exactly maxed out however though, they have everything else going for it. 01:30:02.200 --> 01:30:07.400 They're all T-next home, who flexes his light on the other side, trying to put down pressure. 01:30:07.400 --> 01:30:14.200 Possibly fours Peterbot and Puyo back, but we're gonna have some time here in a moment as they drop down a whole another layer. 01:30:14.200 --> 01:30:17.480 a five tick zone and we tune into Reed right now. 01:30:17.480 --> 01:30:18.920 No Cooper in sight. 01:30:18.920 --> 01:30:20.240 Up to burn through his materials. 01:30:20.240 --> 01:30:23.160 Multiple teams looks like they spotted him out as a solo. 01:30:23.160 --> 01:30:24.600 Send some fire his way, 01:30:24.600 --> 01:30:26.120 trying to put down pressure with his own. 01:30:26.120 --> 01:30:29.320 Max will get again away from Reed. 01:30:29.320 --> 01:30:30.800 Try to see if he's gonna actually try to go 01:30:30.800 --> 01:30:33.040 for the revive here with very little materials 01:30:33.040 --> 01:30:34.240 or play it out as a solo. 01:30:34.240 --> 01:30:35.960 I think he has no other choice 01:30:35.960 --> 01:30:37.880 but to play this one out as a solo. 01:30:37.880 --> 01:30:40.680 It's not enough time to get the revive open 01:30:40.680 --> 01:30:41.800 and we'll end up going down. 01:30:41.800 --> 01:30:44.360 So read, a lot of pressure on your shoulders here 01:30:44.360 --> 01:30:45.520 to finish this game. 01:30:45.520 --> 01:30:47.520 Parch on Bolts and Acorn as well here. 01:30:47.520 --> 01:30:49.120 The mode is surged. 01:30:49.120 --> 01:30:51.920 We were highlighting the fact that seems like Acorn and Bolts 01:30:51.920 --> 01:30:54.440 didn't have problems with the Storm surge at all, 01:30:54.440 --> 01:30:56.040 at least doing damage to them. 01:30:56.040 --> 01:30:58.400 And then we come in now and already that's not 01:30:58.400 --> 01:31:00.280 the same story here at all. 01:31:00.280 --> 01:31:01.360 Acorn, so much pressure here. 01:31:01.360 --> 01:31:03.000 Doesn't even have time to go and heal. 01:31:03.000 --> 01:31:04.640 But Bolts comes in to back him up here. 01:31:04.640 --> 01:31:06.520 This is onto paper. 01:31:06.520 --> 01:31:07.960 This is really gonna come down to whether or not 01:31:07.960 --> 01:31:09.720 Bolts can buy his teammate a little bit of time. 01:31:09.720 --> 01:31:10.560 He's done it so far. 01:31:10.560 --> 01:31:14.440 He finds paper there, and paper goes rolling the way off 01:31:14.440 --> 01:31:17.480 to decide, Rezzy now, and I want to get to Acorn, Acorn. 01:31:17.480 --> 01:31:19.120 You got to fend for yourself, son. 01:31:19.120 --> 01:31:20.000 This is gonna be tough. 01:31:20.000 --> 01:31:21.080 Rezzy's trying to hold it down. 01:31:21.080 --> 01:31:22.280 Acorn, no! 01:31:22.280 --> 01:31:24.440 The big Acorn is here! 01:31:24.440 --> 01:31:28.120 And he does what he needs to do to stay in the game. 01:31:29.920 --> 01:31:31.200 Both have to shoot him! 01:31:31.200 --> 01:31:33.080 Oh my gosh! 01:31:35.160 --> 01:31:39.560 My, I can't believe that zero of a vent. 01:31:39.560 --> 01:31:42.600 A corner Boltz forced to fight the shockwave away. 01:31:42.600 --> 01:31:45.040 Boltz tries to make a row with play, 01:31:46.240 --> 01:31:48.960 but just gets cut a little too short. 01:31:48.960 --> 01:31:50.880 This one, this game right here 01:31:50.880 --> 01:31:52.520 in terms of a leaderboard monster, 01:31:52.520 --> 01:31:55.520 they are going to feel for sure outside of Elim. 01:31:55.520 --> 01:31:57.560 Those are the only points they got. 01:31:57.560 --> 01:32:00.200 See, Prasky going down around 29, 30th place. 01:32:00.200 --> 01:32:02.400 No points for that effort. 01:32:02.400 --> 01:32:03.960 Peterbot and Boyo, those surviving a little bit 01:32:03.960 --> 01:32:06.080 of an onslaught, not only able to get elimination, 01:32:06.080 --> 01:32:07.560 but a little bit of cleanup, 01:32:07.560 --> 01:32:09.600 some actually for them to perk with. 01:32:09.600 --> 01:32:12.240 It's something I think cold and rapid need. 01:32:12.240 --> 01:32:14.520 We saw them getting chased by clicks underneath 01:32:14.520 --> 01:32:15.960 trying to get revenge for Higgs. 01:32:15.960 --> 01:32:17.400 You can see what that has done 01:32:17.400 --> 01:32:18.960 to their position in this game. 01:32:18.960 --> 01:32:21.080 Barely three above the damage threshold. 01:32:21.080 --> 01:32:23.520 Cold with a huge chunk of shield missing. 01:32:23.520 --> 01:32:24.840 It's put them so far back. 01:32:25.920 --> 01:32:28.120 I'm just thinking like cold and rapid 01:32:28.120 --> 01:32:30.600 have a chance to break so far ahead of the competition. 01:32:30.600 --> 01:32:32.360 It's gonna be a huge problem for the whistle-out 01:32:32.360 --> 01:32:33.440 right now. 01:32:33.440 --> 01:32:35.440 If they have a big end game right here. 01:32:37.560 --> 01:32:39.560 No one's played perfect though. 01:32:40.780 --> 01:32:46.080 I feel for him here just taking damage from storm taking damage from storm surge 01:32:46.440 --> 01:32:53.680 No extra HP is 9-3 below. It's deactivated for a moment and oh my god only 01:32:54.480 --> 01:32:56.480 moment he needs 01:32:56.920 --> 01:33:01.120 Literally if it was still actually active monster, he would have been ticked down for sure 01:33:01.120 --> 01:33:05.480 But Reed making a play four more points in this game two teams need to go down 01:33:05.480 --> 01:33:10.400 And he's gonna start getting rewarded with placement points. Hey, man, he's back like he never left right here 01:33:10.400 --> 01:33:15.880 It's got two big pots as well to bounce back in the game pressure on Briggs and visuals from the side here 01:33:15.880 --> 01:33:19.500 These are his walls too. You can get in and make some pretty dirty plays here 01:33:19.920 --> 01:33:25.120 But talk about a way to claw your way out of the grave for a second visuals and braids up 01:33:25.120 --> 01:33:28.200 Look at what happened here just shortly before they made that roadside 01:33:28.200 --> 01:33:34.280 They actually find an elimination there an important one as well at 3 HP the siphon is what's gonna keep them in the game 01:33:34.280 --> 01:33:39.340 Remaining competitive. I saw the while we were hopping around clicks actually eliminated too 01:33:39.340 --> 01:33:43.480 So we have some pretty big top 10 teams now fully out the game 01:33:43.480 --> 01:33:47.020 This is gonna shake up everything as we know it to stay below though 01:33:47.520 --> 01:33:51.480 Visuals braids in a little moment to breathe, but it's not gonna last very long 01:33:53.800 --> 01:33:57.380 See braids have some extra shield allowing him to take the tick 01:33:57.380 --> 01:34:01.840 I'm not sure he's gonna be able to find the damage especially in his own like this curve in Venom 01:34:01.840 --> 01:34:10.220 So shockwave from the back side of the zone to contest the high ground. Nobody's really making themselves known as the team above the rest 01:34:10.220 --> 01:34:14.620 They're not necessarily ready for eight zone. Sometimes we say it's a little bit too early 01:34:14.620 --> 01:34:20.920 I think everybody has that same sense in the back of their mind saving the material saving the shockwave make a play for it 01:34:20.920 --> 01:34:23.600 Maybe in the next couple of zones, but for now ages of ritual 01:34:23.600 --> 01:34:27.860 Looking at what's in front of them. That's let's see. That's wages. We've put down damage trying to spray through the box 01:34:27.860 --> 01:34:31.180 A couple of those are gonna connect, but not enough to give them the green light to go 01:34:31.840 --> 01:34:33.400 Yeah, it's one thing about the way Clicks and Hicks play, 01:34:33.400 --> 01:34:35.040 that they play these single towers 01:34:35.040 --> 01:34:37.040 and not really over commit with the tarps. 01:34:37.040 --> 01:34:39.000 And I would love to see teams do that, 01:34:39.000 --> 01:34:40.920 because high ground is completely free right now. 01:34:40.920 --> 01:34:42.920 Even Grituals and Agers are looking up like, 01:34:42.920 --> 01:34:44.080 wait a second, bro. 01:34:44.080 --> 01:34:47.040 No one's up here, and you saw them kind of break off for it. 01:34:47.040 --> 01:34:48.400 Braids on the other side, though. 01:34:48.400 --> 01:34:50.200 Just popping off right here, 01:34:50.200 --> 01:34:52.680 playing the edge of zone, gets a little siphon going. 01:34:52.680 --> 01:34:54.040 And now, look, you look up. 01:34:54.040 --> 01:34:55.480 Agers finally secures it. 01:34:55.480 --> 01:34:56.560 Beautiful, I'm going to come in. 01:34:56.560 --> 01:34:58.960 They were just waiting for someone to build the foundation. 01:34:58.960 --> 01:35:01.600 And now they come in to try to take the investment 01:35:01.600 --> 01:35:03.720 away from them and then it actually works off. 01:35:03.720 --> 01:35:06.360 Yeah, massive damage on the Agers, on the Bridge. 01:35:06.360 --> 01:35:07.720 Well, force them away, but you still 01:35:07.720 --> 01:35:10.840 got to be careful for Kurt Beno, full HP, front-side of zone. 01:35:10.840 --> 01:35:12.600 Agers gets left by himself, talked 01:35:12.600 --> 01:35:14.640 by him moving possibly into the top five, 01:35:14.640 --> 01:35:17.160 and turns to solo impact points in this game. 01:35:17.160 --> 01:35:19.520 And this is another chance for him to do just that. 01:35:19.520 --> 01:35:21.760 There's a bunch of points in terms of placement 01:35:21.760 --> 01:35:22.840 still left on the board. 01:35:22.840 --> 01:35:25.040 Four points per elimination if you can clean those up. 01:35:25.040 --> 01:35:26.440 But yes, to watch out, the Peterbott 01:35:26.440 --> 01:35:28.240 and Foyo, not only they have the high ground, 01:35:28.240 --> 01:35:29.440 they notice him at second high, 01:35:29.440 --> 01:35:30.680 put down a little bit of pressure, 01:35:30.680 --> 01:35:34.680 forcing them down to hold another layer that set their focus on to 20 a deco and 12. 01:35:34.680 --> 01:35:38.180 They're building up step by step, taking a lot of the focus from Peterbot and Foyle. 01:35:38.180 --> 01:35:41.680 Holdin' Robin may not have won a game this weekend, but they've been playing low ground very well. 01:35:41.680 --> 01:35:45.180 But look at this, as I'm about to celebrate their key positioning, 01:35:45.180 --> 01:35:48.180 they get rolled up on from behind, meanwhile, curve. 01:35:48.180 --> 01:35:52.180 Venom doing the same thing they did before, play deep side of storm, 01:35:52.180 --> 01:35:58.180 come bouncing way on in with the flowberry miss that just support them here for the high ground safe. 01:35:58.180 --> 01:36:00.180 Venos have to be careful.

You could hear our casters talking about it 01:39:45.280 --> 01:39:46.120 They don't want to drop down 01:39:46.120 --> 01:39:50.540 They don't want to give them that chance so that gives you that kind of understanding that they know and perfect 01:39:50.540 --> 01:39:53.460 We're aware of the position that Tyler was in 01:39:53.460 --> 01:39:56.560 Look at this even in these moments he didn't have any build 01:39:56.560 --> 01:39:58.060 Right there look at that 01:39:58.060 --> 01:40:03.340 Right there vivid is what made the difference. We tuned in. He was at 11 01:40:03.660 --> 01:40:08.140 So did he have one build and skip ahead one elimination 01:40:08.140 --> 01:40:17.340 When's the last time you saw anybody in any competition with triple digit builds in the final zone of the game? 01:40:17.340 --> 01:40:18.540 And I mean listen 01:40:18.540 --> 01:40:21.860 I wanted Venom and Kurt to go ahead and win this game because the surgeons up the leaderboard 01:40:21.860 --> 01:40:23.620 Yeah, that would have helped them just that much more 01:40:23.620 --> 01:40:29.100 But as soon as I saw a hundred plus materials hundred plus builds on Tyler 01:40:29.100 --> 01:40:31.460 I was like this one he's gonna be an absolute 01:40:31.460 --> 01:40:32.760 absolute 01:40:32.760 --> 01:40:38.960 Castle the takedown and he absolutely proved it don't defend with that because even with the odds stacked against some look at down to 01:40:38.960 --> 01:40:46.080 Three HP it was close. It was man. I cannot believe how much day two is delivering 01:40:46.960 --> 01:40:53.020 280 points and now we are looking to cement ourselves in that top 13 shout-offs 01:40:53.380 --> 01:40:57.540 The Tyler and chance. Okay, we're gonna go to a break. Let me return again 01:40:57.540 --> 01:41:00.660 We've got to take a look at these standings how are things developing? 01:41:01.460 --> 01:41:03.460 More after this crack.

They're now 27 points behind first place 01:45:22.540 --> 01:45:26.820 and that elim column it just keeps getting crazier as you can talk about it. It was at 40 now 01:45:26.820 --> 01:45:35.100 it's at 49. I am just shocked you know like I something that Kelly said at the start 01:45:35.100 --> 01:45:39.380 of like yesterday right we kind of like we're hinting at this extra point right 01:45:39.380 --> 01:45:44.420 And again, it's like, one point really doesn't sound like a lot, but when you put it in the 01:45:44.420 --> 01:45:48.060 hands of like a Kervin Venom, who want to get aggressive, they want to get in these 01:45:48.060 --> 01:45:53.940 bots, they want to take these fights, I mean, look at how it's paying off, we have, just 01:45:53.940 --> 01:46:00.860 after two games, we started the day, Kelly, in ten, we are now second! 01:46:00.860 --> 01:46:04.300 And it's not even like they're just kind of running on the low ground getting these 01:46:04.300 --> 01:46:07.460 eliminations, no, they're also making sure that they're stealing high, checking 01:46:07.460 --> 01:46:12.100 high ground making sure that they're taking away other opportunities from other teams so it's not 01:46:12.100 --> 01:46:16.580 again what are they doing right but what are they taking away from everyone else and curve and then 01:46:16.580 --> 01:46:21.380 we're doing a great job with those sneaky height steals that we love to see a corn do and to see 01:46:21.380 --> 01:46:26.180 them use that strategy to be able to even just punish height obviously coming into this final 01:46:26.180 --> 01:46:31.300 moment the 1v2 against chance or against Tyler probably not the position that Benna wanted to 01:46:31.300 --> 01:46:36.100 be in right now but regardless of that they are pushing themselves up the leaderboard right 01:46:36.100 --> 01:46:37.160 right now. And, you know, 01:46:37.160 --> 01:46:38.560 I'm looking at EU the most 01:46:38.560 --> 01:46:39.900 eliminations we saw out of a 01:46:39.900 --> 01:46:41.260 team coming from Europe with 01:46:41.260 --> 01:46:43.080 Sky and Scroll with 57 01:46:43.080 --> 01:46:45.080 elimination and looking to see 01:46:45.080 --> 01:46:47.680 49 for Curve and Venno and 01:46:47.680 --> 01:46:49.080 considering the game or the 01:46:49.080 --> 01:46:50.120 day that they had yesterday 01:46:50.120 --> 01:46:51.040 to the day that they're 01:46:51.040 --> 01:46:52.840 having today, I wonder if 01:46:52.840 --> 01:46:53.920 they're going to end up with 01:46:53.920 --> 01:46:55.420 more Elimps than them. 01:46:57.360 --> 01:46:58.720 See, what a weird lobby that 01:46:58.720 --> 01:46:59.880 was to with like the high 01:46:59.880 --> 01:47:00.520 girl, like at one point 01:47:00.520 --> 01:47:02.260 there was like nobody up there 01:47:02.260 --> 01:47:03.200 and all of a sudden, you know, 01:47:03.200 --> 01:47:04.360 Peter bottom player kind of 01:47:04.360 --> 01:47:05.560 going for it. And then when 01:47:05.560 --> 01:47:11.560 and then I went for it. It was nobody up there as well. Like Peter bottom boy. I had to cook the fall down and did that huge 01:47:11.920 --> 01:47:15.560 Overdrive grenade again, right where they're all the way up in the sky. I was looking up. I was like, oh my gosh 01:47:15.560 --> 01:47:21.840 Look at that a bird. It's a plane. No, it's the plane that brought Venom over from you to NA all the way up there, man 01:47:21.840 --> 01:47:25.000 That's that's how high they're getting for some of these height retakes 01:47:25.000 --> 01:47:30.280 I mean it's incredible game seven game eight and what the exact same way they took I had the exact same time and 01:47:30.400 --> 01:47:34.200 Like I mentioned man game seven they look like a different duo game eight 01:47:34.200 --> 01:47:38.480 They repeated it four more games side. These guys look like they're gonna win this thing. Oh 01:47:39.160 --> 01:47:43.040 Man guys, we can't forget that right cold and rapid. Look at them up there right now 01:47:43.040 --> 01:47:45.800 Of course not a ton of points ahead 01:47:45.800 --> 01:47:53.400 But what strikes me as crazy as cold and rapid this last game they hit a 10th place with four Elan 01:47:53.400 --> 01:47:55.400 They have only had one game 01:47:56.240 --> 01:48:03.080 Outside of the top 10 only one game and that was that 26 and one that we called it quote-unquote mistake, right? 01:48:03.080 --> 01:48:04.580 like the little, the blunder 01:48:04.580 --> 01:48:05.780 that kind of cost them all 01:48:05.780 --> 01:48:07.180 of these additional points. 01:48:07.180 --> 01:48:08.480 But even in these situations 01:48:08.480 --> 01:48:09.480 where they're fighting themselves 01:48:09.480 --> 01:48:11.280 in shambles situations, 01:48:11.280 --> 01:48:13.580 we're still pulling off 10th places, 01:48:13.580 --> 01:48:15.980 top 10 with four elims. 01:48:15.980 --> 01:48:17.760 That's scary stuff, Kelly. 01:48:17.760 --> 01:48:18.960 Yeah, and that is exactly 01:48:18.960 --> 01:48:21.120 what Cold and Rapid are doing so well 01:48:21.120 --> 01:48:22.320 is that even though they're not, 01:48:22.320 --> 01:48:24.480 like even if they don't get their pop-off game, 01:48:24.480 --> 01:48:25.320 they're still making sure 01:48:25.320 --> 01:48:26.160 that they at least make it 01:48:26.160 --> 01:48:27.160 to the very final moment 01:48:27.160 --> 01:48:28.520 to get those placement points. 01:48:28.520 --> 01:48:30.320 And then when they do have everything right, 01:48:30.320 --> 01:48:31.920 that's when they pull off the pop-off game. 01:48:31.920 --> 01:48:35.100 So I'd love to see another game like that coming out of them. 01:48:35.100 --> 01:48:35.760 Hold on, Rapin. 01:48:35.760 --> 01:48:37.760 They keep trying to build some sort of a lead, 01:48:37.760 --> 01:48:40.080 but teams, they just keep keeping themselves close. 01:48:40.080 --> 01:48:42.400 They're like, what the heck, where did Curve and Beto come from? 01:48:42.400 --> 01:48:43.280 I thought we were fine. 01:48:43.280 --> 01:48:45.640 Red Acre and Bulls are doing a little bit worse today. 01:48:45.640 --> 01:48:47.040 Oh, man, these guys got to be sweating, 01:48:47.040 --> 01:48:48.560 but they're cool, com-collected. 01:48:48.560 --> 01:48:49.520 We're games left to go. 01:48:49.520 --> 01:48:51.240 Hopefully they can hold on. 01:48:51.240 --> 01:48:53.440 Oh, man, game number nine. 01:48:53.440 --> 01:48:57.640 Only four left before we conclude the grand finals. 01:48:57.640 --> 01:48:59.840 Castors, we're going to send it your way 01:48:59.840 --> 01:49:01.200 to prepare us for game number nine. 01:49:04.080 --> 01:49:07.120 Well, as you guys had a little moment to breathe and relax 01:49:07.120 --> 01:49:08.680 there, one thing's for certain, Jacob. 01:49:08.680 --> 01:49:12.520 Two games can change so much of the dynamic right now. 01:49:12.520 --> 01:49:16.640 Kerman, Beno proving that every team that is due for a pop-off 01:49:16.640 --> 01:49:17.560 will have it. 01:49:17.560 --> 01:49:20.120 But to go back to back like that, it's so impressive. 01:49:20.120 --> 01:49:21.480 It's definitely going to be tough. 01:49:21.480 --> 01:49:23.560 But one thing that I've learned from Fortnite, 01:49:23.560 --> 01:49:25.440 I've heard from Fortnite over the years, 01:49:25.440 --> 01:49:27.240 high ground, they might win games. 01:49:27.240 --> 01:49:29.880 but low ground tends to win championships. 01:49:29.880 --> 01:49:33.320 And I'm not sure we've seen cold and rapid on high ground 01:49:33.320 --> 01:49:35.160 once throughout this week. 01:49:35.160 --> 01:49:36.960 And I'm not sure how much that would change, 01:49:36.960 --> 01:49:38.320 but the next game is ready. 01:49:38.320 --> 01:49:39.880 So let's jump right into the action. 01:49:45.240 --> 01:49:49.520 The major one finals game nine begins here and now. 01:49:49.520 --> 01:49:50.520 You're just tuning in. 01:49:50.520 --> 01:49:52.360 You've missed quite the weekend. 01:49:52.360 --> 01:49:55.320 The ups, the downs, the emotional roller coaster 01:49:55.320 --> 01:49:59.960 We have been going through is all coming to an end here soon. 01:49:59.960 --> 01:50:01.760 Just four games ahead of us now, Jacob, 01:50:01.760 --> 01:50:04.400 as we're getting into the deep end, the deep water 01:50:04.400 --> 01:50:06.280 of this Fortnite competition and Curve Invento 01:50:06.280 --> 01:50:08.760 just proven to us that, hey, yesterday, 01:50:08.760 --> 01:50:10.840 they clearly had everything on lock. 01:50:10.840 --> 01:50:14.040 Things just didn't quite line up for them in the end game. 01:50:14.040 --> 01:50:17.360 But today, it is starting to click. 01:50:17.360 --> 01:50:18.440 Tyler Enchant, right? 01:50:18.440 --> 01:50:21.080 This is a team that's had a lot to deal with as well. 01:50:21.080 --> 01:50:22.880 But Tyler popping off right now, 01:50:22.880 --> 01:50:24.320 really getting his money's worth. 01:50:24.320 --> 01:50:26.960 And don't forget, they haven't been perfect either, 01:50:26.960 --> 01:50:29.120 but they found themselves inside the top 10 01:50:29.120 --> 01:50:30.920 off of that monstrous performance. 01:50:32.080 --> 01:50:34.600 Big moments here, kind of closing out the day, 01:50:34.600 --> 01:50:35.600 four games left. 01:50:35.600 --> 01:50:37.640 Might seem like a lot, but it definitely isn't threats 01:50:37.640 --> 01:50:39.500 and fear, probably, of feeling it. 01:50:39.500 --> 01:50:42.560 In that last game, they were inside of that top 13 bubble. 01:50:42.560 --> 01:50:45.120 They went down relatively early 01:50:45.120 --> 01:50:48.240 and fell all the way down to 15th place 01:50:48.240 --> 01:50:50.840 because of these off-spawn contested fights. 01:50:50.840 --> 01:50:53.120 So with Langston Mako, you can see they're trying 01:50:53.120 --> 01:50:56.560 to make a last ditch effort towards the top of the leaderboard, the threats and 01:50:56.560 --> 01:51:00.640 veers there right there. So we talk about mind games. What does that do to a team 01:51:00.640 --> 01:51:03.600 like threats and there? Do you play aggressive? Do you try to go ahead and 01:51:03.600 --> 01:51:07.000 disengage split the drop? There's a lot of decisions to be made. That's a 01:51:07.000 --> 01:51:10.840 bear. There's not a lot of time to make those. And last game, we survived for 01:51:10.840 --> 01:51:15.400 five minutes. Five minutes means they fell in 41st place. They were on 01:51:15.400 --> 01:51:21.000 track to remain in qualification range, of course, for that land spot, the 01:51:21.000 --> 01:51:27.320 prestigious land spots that are available and now they slip down to 15. So that 20 point gap that 01:51:27.320 --> 01:51:32.040 you talked about, I mean that was given in Mensum. Now it's an uphill battle for them to find their 01:51:32.040 --> 01:51:37.880 way back into the race while you'll eat a box on the other side. You know, we're trying to figure 01:51:37.880 --> 01:51:43.720 out what's going on with this team here. They've had overall, you just look at overall performances 01:51:43.720 --> 01:51:49.800 pretty good. However, the best of the best, right? Those that are up at the very top 01:51:49.800 --> 01:51:54.680 are just outpacing them by a significant margin as far as overall consistency. 01:51:54.680 --> 01:52:01.000 So will Peterbot and Foyo get their moment to finally win a game is the question. 01:52:02.440 --> 01:52:06.120 Especially, you know, you kind of look at some of these teams at the top of leaderboard and 01:52:06.120 --> 01:52:09.640 and their overall match history and you kind of look at it from from anybody else. You're 01:52:09.640 --> 01:52:13.480 like, man, that's a good match history for the teams like Peterbot and Foyo, 01:52:13.480 --> 01:52:17.320 the teams like this Clicks and Eggs. When you start off the first three games for Clicks 01:52:17.320 --> 01:52:22.320 with victory Royals. It kind of sets the tone and the pages for the rest of the tournament, 01:52:22.320 --> 01:52:25.320 but then things don't necessarily go your way. 01:52:25.320 --> 01:52:29.320 One of the best POIs, they got four games left. I think anything is possible, 01:52:29.320 --> 01:52:32.320 especially since the last couple of games to start today. 01:52:32.320 --> 01:52:35.320 They have their head on straight. They're still staying to their plant, 01:52:35.320 --> 01:52:37.320 going for high ground when they can. 01:52:37.320 --> 01:52:40.320 It's just unfortunate that more and more teams are ready to make the risk 01:52:40.320 --> 01:52:42.320 with everything on the line today. 01:52:42.320 --> 01:52:44.320 For me, I still can't be the only one who's wondering 01:52:44.320 --> 01:52:48.820 Why in the world today end up at the dark dominion against golden rapid? 01:52:48.820 --> 01:52:53.320 We are clearly playing that's cut above the rest of the competition right now 01:52:53.320 --> 01:52:58.620 So we'll keep eyes on this. This is obviously one of the stronger draw spot teams tend to rotate into for metal 01:52:59.640 --> 01:53:02.220 Let's give this little highlight here some action 01:53:02.520 --> 01:53:08.600 Noisy and Mio just holding down the sanctuary once again finding this little lurk play there 01:53:08.600 --> 01:53:15.340 Meanwhile Tyler and Chan survived the Boulevard looks like Curve and Venno have not decided to push down south towards his team 01:53:15.340 --> 01:53:19.980 And instead they end up disengaging it out. We're just southern edge of the map 01:53:23.220 --> 01:53:25.880 This is something we saw Tyler and Chan's doing that last game 01:53:25.880 --> 01:53:30.320 They landed the south side of battle would time that can be a little contested 01:53:30.320 --> 01:53:34.880 So they immediately go towards the south and try to cut off the loop half of any of these teams 01:53:34.880 --> 01:53:37.960 that are on this portion of the map. 01:53:37.960 --> 01:53:39.640 Gonna be plenty of opportunity 01:53:39.640 --> 01:53:41.160 depending on what your timing is, 01:53:41.160 --> 01:53:42.360 but it seems like Tyler and Chance 01:53:42.360 --> 01:53:44.280 barely missed their window. 01:53:44.280 --> 01:53:45.400 Players gonna go ahead and rotate 01:53:45.400 --> 01:53:47.320 around 4-3, Aviv and Kingo. 01:53:47.320 --> 01:53:49.760 Another team, Aviv, you're talking about solo clutch 01:53:49.760 --> 01:53:51.040 and big impact point. 01:53:51.040 --> 01:53:53.720 Aviv was one of those players on the top of the leaderboard 01:53:53.720 --> 01:53:54.840 and then you take into a fact 01:53:54.840 --> 01:53:58.000 like the eval finals right before FNC has started. 01:53:58.000 --> 01:54:00.800 They're really the only team to win two different games 01:54:00.800 --> 01:54:02.000 so they have the blueprint. 01:54:02.000 --> 01:54:04.760 Just unfortunately, we haven't seen the success 01:54:04.760 --> 01:54:08.000 that we'd hope for from a team like this 01:54:08.000 --> 01:54:11.080 and seeing if they can really bounce back in today's tournament i think there's 01:54:11.080 --> 01:54:15.160 plenty of time and opportunity there at a hundred and seventy four points though 01:54:15.160 --> 01:54:18.160 about eighty points down away from that top thirteen window 01:54:18.160 --> 01:54:21.920 yeah it looks like every other game they're making somewhat of a semblance 01:54:21.920 --> 01:54:24.360 towards the end game but not quite 01:54:24.360 --> 01:54:27.240 being able to push the boulder pass 01:54:27.240 --> 01:54:28.800 peak of the mountain there 01:54:28.800 --> 01:54:30.400 get that momentum going but 01:54:30.400 --> 01:54:48.960 I think they might just go for a straight chop, but magma's dropping down low, so he's 01:54:48.960 --> 01:54:52.520 probably going to wait for the window to open, and he goes ahead and disengages out, G-Muddy 01:54:52.520 --> 01:54:56.600 gets spotted out on the other side, don't take your pick at this point, this Vettel 01:54:56.600 --> 01:55:01.240 The curve are ready to go all in boxes up one slides into the box on the back 01:55:01.560 --> 01:55:04.880 Now they're gonna go ahead and take down G money a quick two 01:55:05.680 --> 01:55:08.440 Elimination's Venom and curve. They're not slowing down 01:55:09.240 --> 01:55:13.200 And I've worked with Venom enough times to know exactly where his stall process there, right? 01:55:13.200 --> 01:55:16.440 Put the pressure down in the other one if the other one's gonna get risky 01:55:16.440 --> 01:55:21.380 He plays the switch reverse card lanes on a box to month before he even recognizes 01:55:21.380 --> 01:55:23.380 He's actually the one that's the target 01:55:23.380 --> 01:55:27.380 Venno is just playing different right now. 01:55:27.380 --> 01:55:30.620 And again, this is no different than what we saw yesterday. 01:55:30.620 --> 01:55:34.540 They have been overly successful in the early game. 01:55:34.540 --> 01:55:38.060 And now that they're finding the end game kind of formula, 01:55:38.060 --> 01:55:40.300 right, the solution to their problems, 01:55:40.300 --> 01:55:43.620 that's why they've been able to close this gap so fast. 01:55:46.620 --> 01:55:48.620 Not sure how many teams can really take them on 01:55:48.620 --> 01:55:50.860 head to head with the way they're playing so far. 01:55:50.860 --> 01:55:53.140 So you maybe have to catch them on a rotation. 01:55:53.140 --> 01:55:59.220 We get a lobby focus, but Bolton acorn talked about their strategy vivid broke down that long launch pad towards the back 01:55:59.220 --> 01:56:03.940 They combine both the fizz and the shockwave for easy rotations just like this 01:56:03.940 --> 01:56:07.740 We jump on board Cree on dragon third party to fight to start the game yesterday 01:56:08.060 --> 01:56:09.460 Recon Cooper as well 01:56:09.460 --> 01:56:14.420 We're talking about threats and fear falling outside of the bubble reading Cooper are surely close to that same situation 01:56:14.660 --> 01:56:17.020 Not sure how people went down in that last game 01:56:17.020 --> 01:56:21.860 But we saw read by himself in some of those later zones struggling to get out alive 01:56:21.860 --> 01:56:27.400 So this is gonna be a little bit of a makeup game little bit of redemption. It kind of build that confidence back up 01:56:29.420 --> 01:56:34.820 Back in exchange there a few times. So just giving away some of that damage that they're of course hard-earning 01:56:37.940 --> 01:56:41.840 People was lost like we mentioned really early last round right so there is some 01:56:42.460 --> 01:56:44.460 It's more work to be 01:56:44.540 --> 01:56:47.980 Desired here like impressing them already at two evens and look at this 01:56:47.980 --> 01:56:51.200 It's just gonna sneak up on another player here look in the box 01:56:51.860 --> 01:56:58.860 Cleaning things up here, Visual's brains finds himself under some serious pressure here. 01:56:58.860 --> 01:57:04.860 Now as I mentioned, normally by now, they're already situated in a monster search base. 01:57:04.860 --> 01:57:06.860 I haven't quite gotten to do that just yet. 01:57:06.860 --> 01:57:09.860 You can see he is cap metal though. 01:57:09.860 --> 01:57:13.860 You know, I'll back on over the rituals of leaders here, what's happening now? 01:57:13.860 --> 01:57:16.860 I'm not sure if they heard the noise from Blake and Preston. 01:57:16.860 --> 01:57:20.860 Maybe a reboot, not sure, but they see Preston by himself. 01:57:20.860 --> 01:57:24.620 himself. I mean, look at the mini map. I don't see Blake anywhere inside. That'll map easy. 01:57:24.620 --> 01:57:29.180 They're gone or outside of the lobby, so pressed in on a clock inside of the zone. It's only 01:57:29.180 --> 01:57:33.100 going to be a one-take here, but they are tracing him down. He gets the patch up, which is 01:57:33.100 --> 01:57:37.860 huge. Back-to-back 50 HP being regenerated. No time to pop the shield, though. So you 01:57:37.860 --> 01:57:41.180 find yourself a good amount of time. And they're longer to stay in the zone. If 01:57:41.180 --> 01:57:45.220 Age and Ritual don't feel up, they could be one shot away, but they sneak the 01:57:45.220 --> 01:57:49.180 shot through in yet again. And the numbers advantage work in their favor. Age and 01:57:49.180 --> 01:57:53.860 solidified their second elimination year my only question monitor is how much 01:57:53.860 --> 01:57:58.860 damage they took overall chasing out the town. Definitely wasn't the cleanest fight. 01:57:58.860 --> 01:58:03.420 S.G. Dlser, it's Acorn and Boltz right now on the edge of storm here. 01:58:03.420 --> 01:58:08.020 Dlser, S.G. looking to rotate out right now, little bit of a bell though. 01:58:08.020 --> 01:58:12.420 Seems like there might be a duo here watching this little table. It's actually 01:58:12.420 --> 01:58:16.340 Raven and CDZ who have a bit of a choke point here down in the low ground. 01:58:16.340 --> 01:58:21.100 8 corner bolts hold strong they want to maintain position here in the bush 01:58:21.100 --> 01:58:25.940 CDC had no idea they were there there it is they get a couple of tacks 01:58:25.940 --> 01:58:28.780 there you go 01:58:28.780 --> 01:58:32.300 good rotation here break corner bolts putting them much ahead of the curve 01:58:32.300 --> 01:58:34.820 but one thing I noticed kind of looking at that leaderboard got cold and 01:58:34.820 --> 01:58:39.220 rapping first then I would curve in second place which are thinking both 01:58:39.220 --> 01:58:45.500 big teams right but remember the reason why Venno came from EU to play on NA 01:58:45.500 --> 01:58:49.940 in the first place. It was to play with Cold. They had a bunch of lackluster 01:58:49.940 --> 01:58:54.580 performances which caused them to split different ways. At one point you saw the 01:58:54.580 --> 01:58:57.860 Peterbotton-Poyle split up, Venom was gonna play with Peter, but then he went 01:58:57.860 --> 01:59:02.500 with Curve. Cold was like, ah, I'm going with Rapid. They already qualified for the 01:59:02.500 --> 01:59:05.580 reload Elite Series finals, so they already had that chemistry. I think 01:59:05.580 --> 01:59:08.780 the community saw that one coming from a mile away. So it's interesting to 01:59:08.780 --> 01:59:12.940 see two teammates who broke up now fighting for first and second place 01:59:12.940 --> 01:59:13.940 on the leaderboard. 01:59:13.940 --> 01:59:16.460 That's right, the Minish has that land experience as well, right? 01:59:16.460 --> 01:59:20.900 So bringing something totally new to this game here, and if they continue to continue 01:59:20.900 --> 01:59:25.860 to do what they're doing and stay on track to make it to land, that's going to pay off 01:59:25.860 --> 01:59:28.860 for sure. 01:59:28.860 --> 01:59:36.140 Think about this position here from Bucky and Zen, underneath the bases of Noise 01:59:36.140 --> 01:59:40.700 and Leo. 01:59:40.700 --> 01:59:44.220 I like it to not take too much damage or too much focus. 01:59:44.220 --> 01:59:45.820 Kind of makes it a little bit easier to rotate 01:59:45.820 --> 01:59:48.620 without shockwaving a high distance away to take damage. 01:59:49.740 --> 01:59:52.860 But they're not gonna get as much opportunity to get served. 01:59:52.860 --> 01:59:54.940 Team above is gonna get first strike at that. 01:59:54.940 --> 01:59:57.460 And by the time they can even open up their walls 01:59:57.460 --> 01:59:59.660 and try to get their own shots to connect. 02:00:10.700 --> 02:00:18.140 You see the zone not too far away from dark dominion at the current time cold and rapid 02:00:18.140 --> 02:00:22.820 position up above and honestly there's no real reason for cold and rapid to stray away 02:00:22.820 --> 02:00:27.780 from their strategy you know you don't fix what isn't broken if their worst placing is 02:00:27.780 --> 02:00:33.460 going to be a 26 and kind of an outlier game and after that it's a 10th place honestly 02:00:33.460 --> 02:00:38.540 it'd be a crazy to switch things up for no reason I'm just starting to think you 02:00:38.540 --> 02:00:43.360 Now, should we be upset if Venom flies in from EU and then wins an FNCS here in NA? 02:00:43.360 --> 02:00:46.160 You know, now we got to start like asking these types of questions here. 02:00:46.160 --> 02:00:47.880 I don't know how to feel about it. 02:00:48.600 --> 02:00:50.800 It's getting pretty contentious up at the top. 02:00:53.320 --> 02:00:59.080 He's definitely going to help his case, and you know how he feels about the comparison for EU2 and A. 02:00:59.080 --> 02:01:04.000 And he's just right there, honestly, less than 20 points away at this current time. 02:01:04.000 --> 02:01:06.500 Closing the gap as the game does go on. 02:01:07.300 --> 02:01:11.760 See reten cooper on the distance trying to make up for that last game 02:01:13.980 --> 02:01:16.860 You see them kind of waiting biting their time and this is where a lot of teams 02:01:16.860 --> 02:01:21.160 You know if you look at the strategy from clicks and Higgs and you're asking the question how did Higgs go down? 02:01:21.300 --> 02:01:26.940 You almost imagine a situation like this coming in using the wonky wheel and a lot of these teams just like you know 02:01:27.060 --> 02:01:31.540 Reeten cooper cold and rapid our position high up in their surge tower bases 02:01:31.540 --> 02:01:34.220 So you're not going to be out of render distance as you think 02:01:34.220 --> 02:01:38.060 Yeah, they got eyes on the foxes, right? 02:01:38.060 --> 02:01:40.240 I really kind of called this before. 02:01:40.240 --> 02:01:45.780 Teams that are positioned up in these bases do tend to wait things out and try to look 02:01:45.780 --> 02:01:50.500 for opportunity for those that are going to rotate past. 02:01:50.500 --> 02:01:53.680 Damn, this is game number nine. 02:01:53.680 --> 02:01:59.360 12, two-day format here, always keeping us on our toes as things are starting to 02:01:59.360 --> 02:02:00.360 heat up. 02:02:00.360 --> 02:02:03.520 The 50-50 zone's going to pop, and it's coming up this way. 02:02:03.520 --> 02:02:05.460 You know, this is kind of risky, right? 02:02:05.460 --> 02:02:07.780 You know, Jake, when we talk about teams that 02:02:07.780 --> 02:02:09.700 kind of play deep into the storm right here 02:02:09.700 --> 02:02:10.940 and then the zone pulls your way 02:02:10.940 --> 02:02:12.620 and you just stay here, right? 02:02:12.620 --> 02:02:15.060 You kind of tank all of this storm. 02:02:15.060 --> 02:02:16.980 Now, what you're doing is you're opening yourself up 02:02:16.980 --> 02:02:18.900 to potential sickness, but also, 02:02:18.900 --> 02:02:21.260 obviously it's gonna cost you a lot of heals. 02:02:21.260 --> 02:02:22.900 Yeah, a lot of the resources, 02:02:22.900 --> 02:02:24.500 that's kind of the give and take of a game like this. 02:02:24.500 --> 02:02:26.340 You talk about a similar scenario 02:02:26.340 --> 02:02:28.460 when somebody is getting struck down 02:02:28.460 --> 02:02:30.620 by storm surge, do you outheal it? 02:02:30.620 --> 02:02:32.580 Do you try to get eliminations? 02:02:32.580 --> 02:02:34.220 So hopefully with their position here, 02:02:34.220 --> 02:02:36.220 they do both zone, Reed and Cooper, 02:02:36.220 --> 02:02:37.580 they're gonna go through their splashes, 02:02:37.580 --> 02:02:40.700 maybe some pizzas to try to maintain their position. 02:02:40.700 --> 02:02:42.420 Not only on high ground, 02:02:42.420 --> 02:02:43.420 on the north side of the map, 02:02:43.420 --> 02:02:44.260 where it's gonna open up, 02:02:44.260 --> 02:02:46.180 it's gonna be a little bit slower to travel through. 02:02:46.180 --> 02:02:49.340 Muds and Sphinx Storm Serves does activate 175 02:02:49.340 --> 02:02:51.060 above the damage threshold. 02:02:51.060 --> 02:02:52.140 You're seeing they're only peeking 02:02:52.140 --> 02:02:54.820 for small opportunities to their level with the ground. 02:02:54.820 --> 02:02:56.860 So they're not gonna get as much information 02:02:56.860 --> 02:02:58.660 from all the teams rotating in. 02:02:58.660 --> 02:02:59.500 Confused for a second, 02:02:59.500 --> 02:03:01.260 look like something literally fell out the sky. 02:03:01.260 --> 02:03:04.300 Like do we have an in-game event happening right now? What was that? 02:03:05.740 --> 02:03:08.380 Spinks of muzz just kind of hanging out right now 02:03:08.380 --> 02:03:12.700 I like the spot that they're in you know 150 above not too bad not exactly safe 02:03:13.340 --> 02:03:15.340 However, it can go either way 02:03:15.980 --> 02:03:18.380 See curve then out now. We've already 02:03:19.260 --> 02:03:21.900 Found themselves pretty content right they find their elimination 02:03:21.900 --> 02:03:27.500 They get the the big cleanup here and they haven't quite left and just took the surge base and have turned it into their own strategy 02:03:27.500 --> 02:03:30.140 and now the zone is continuing to pull this way. 02:03:30.140 --> 02:03:33.140 I'm going to have to shockwave out here shortly, here it goes. 02:03:33.140 --> 02:03:37.140 I don't want to have to team, but someone's waiting for them to make that move. 02:03:37.140 --> 02:03:40.140 A little bit of damage on the curve, but then on those untouched. 02:03:40.140 --> 02:03:45.700 Yeah, those are the risks versus the reward that I kind of look at in situations where 02:03:45.700 --> 02:03:47.140 you're shockwaving off a pipe. 02:03:47.140 --> 02:03:51.860 You have a good bird's eye view when you're able to kind of be up here, monster, 02:03:51.860 --> 02:03:55.620 but once you shockwave down, you kind of leave yourself open to taking the shots 02:03:55.620 --> 02:03:59.400 Just like you saw there, but they were very very proactive in the early game 02:03:59.400 --> 02:04:04.680 They're able to pad that cushion when it comes to storm surge, so they can't take minimal damage just like that 02:04:04.840 --> 02:04:09.920 I see clicks and Higgs still rotating in from wonky land a little bit of slower rotation than others 02:04:09.920 --> 02:04:14.320 They're taking a lot of the focus and this is what happens when you fall behind with the rest of the pack 02:04:16.960 --> 02:04:19.920 I was wondering if we're gonna do a little update on clicks and Higgs here 02:04:21.200 --> 02:04:22.400 performance 02:04:22.400 --> 02:04:25.800 Definitely coming up short from what we expected 02:04:27.200 --> 02:04:30.080 Parts live up to that hot start look at this though sleep 02:04:30.640 --> 02:04:33.320 And waiters there tries to go up and over 02:04:33.760 --> 02:04:37.420 They get caught in the process also find themselves below the search 02:04:37.420 --> 02:04:43.080 So there's just all types of problems here to deal with me. Well, I don't think school again is that they get the refresh that they need 02:04:43.120 --> 02:04:44.600 They might 02:04:44.600 --> 02:04:51.480 Might even build into the zone here with a monstrous metal base if they wanted to I was gonna say they obviously have enough 02:04:51.480 --> 02:04:53.480 Master do so 02:04:54.440 --> 02:04:57.800 Let's take a look at it. It's Venom next there Jake 02:04:58.600 --> 02:05:04.320 Just big damage not sure what Slepsie was thinking, but I saw 500 below the damage threshold 02:05:04.320 --> 02:05:09.080 He's probably charged trying to drop on anybody with a surprise attack tries to get the one pump 02:05:09.080 --> 02:05:13.400 But I did see you know the teammate just kind of go down right behind paper who is looking 02:05:13.760 --> 02:05:19.660 Not even in that direction probably after the elimination got cleaned up the loop kind of made itself 02:05:19.660 --> 02:05:21.700 No paper looks around. Oh, what is this? 02:05:21.700 --> 02:05:23.940 Kind of gets rewarded there, cold and rapid. 02:05:23.940 --> 02:05:27.500 See them continuously staying on these mid layers. 02:05:27.500 --> 02:05:28.980 They don't want to have a target on their back, 02:05:28.980 --> 02:05:31.060 going for high ground, especially since they're already 02:05:31.060 --> 02:05:32.060 in first place. 02:05:32.060 --> 02:05:35.540 They don't have to change up anything here, 313 damage 02:05:35.540 --> 02:05:37.620 above the threshold, just waiting for the next zone 02:05:37.620 --> 02:05:39.700 to pull in more than half of the lobby. 02:05:39.700 --> 02:05:42.020 Just got a max pull over towards Humboldt. 02:05:42.020 --> 02:05:50.980 We have it, things are about to start hitting them real quick here now for approaching the 02:05:50.980 --> 02:05:53.180 final moments of game number 9. 02:05:53.180 --> 02:05:59.980 Endgame is on, Sturm Swords is here, and Clicks and Higgs are 150 below right now. 02:05:59.980 --> 02:06:05.460 Still plenty of room of damage to be had here, so they have to play aggressive into 02:06:05.460 --> 02:06:06.460 the box to go. 02:06:06.460 --> 02:06:08.460 Higgs gets a monster shot, Clicks into the box. 02:06:08.460 --> 02:06:11.180 Wow, Clicks does what he needs to, but no. 02:06:11.180 --> 02:06:13.620 and rituals are here to clean it up. 02:06:13.620 --> 02:06:16.620 And they take out some of that close, 02:06:16.620 --> 02:06:19.620 close competition there in clicks and Higgs, 02:06:19.620 --> 02:06:21.940 and the runway is starting to open up now. 02:06:21.940 --> 02:06:24.620 Meanwhile, Curvin' Venom, Clear as day, 02:06:24.620 --> 02:06:26.260 Blue skies for the team over here. 02:06:26.260 --> 02:06:29.580 They have high ground, it's max material once again. 02:06:29.580 --> 02:06:31.820 This just doesn't get better for them. 02:06:31.820 --> 02:06:34.900 Yeah, I'm not sure if these were all of their bases 02:06:34.900 --> 02:06:38.180 or not, but essentially shockwaving from base to base 02:06:38.180 --> 02:06:39.860 to base in the last couple of zones 02:06:39.860 --> 02:06:42.620 to make sure they maintain their presence up above. 02:06:42.620 --> 02:06:45.380 You see him walk all that extra blue building out where not 02:06:45.380 --> 02:06:47.140 necessarily to hold the tarp just to get 02:06:47.140 --> 02:06:48.380 their edge inside of the zone. 02:06:48.380 --> 02:06:50.420 Peterbot and Pollo fill in the same struggle 02:06:50.420 --> 02:06:53.100 for a moment, one below the damage threshold. 02:06:53.100 --> 02:06:55.780 They could be dropping themselves back up 89 above. 02:06:55.780 --> 02:06:57.380 Pollo looking towards the backside of zone 02:06:57.380 --> 02:06:58.700 trying to get some easy damage. 02:06:58.700 --> 02:07:00.900 Peterbot on the hunt for some of his own. 02:07:00.900 --> 02:07:04.060 Almost writes out more than he could chew in that moment. 02:07:04.060 --> 02:07:05.820 But either way, Pollo's able to clean up at least 02:07:05.820 --> 02:07:07.740 one elimination and continue to build up 02:07:07.740 --> 02:07:08.780 on that storm surge. 02:07:08.780 --> 02:07:11.540 Only three players need to go down before it deactivates, 02:07:11.540 --> 02:07:14.940 but as they get elimination, so do cold and rapid. 02:07:14.940 --> 02:07:18.220 There goes another one for cold and into his total. 02:07:18.220 --> 02:07:19.060 It's crazy, man. 02:07:19.060 --> 02:07:21.020 The amount of elimination they manage to find 02:07:21.020 --> 02:07:23.100 in the endgame is so impressive. 02:07:23.100 --> 02:07:24.580 And they're in the lead, mind you, right? 02:07:24.580 --> 02:07:27.180 So this is really gonna give them that run 02:07:27.180 --> 02:07:28.300 to run away with it. 02:07:29.500 --> 02:07:31.220 We start looking at players like rapid, 02:07:31.220 --> 02:07:33.020 we start looking at players like curved. 02:07:33.020 --> 02:07:36.960 Having an FNCS championship under your belt is one thing, 02:07:36.960 --> 02:07:40.380 but having it on NA just hits a little different too. 02:07:40.380 --> 02:07:42.520 So for some, they're looking to unify the belts. 02:07:42.520 --> 02:07:45.880 For others, they're trying to put this stamp on their name. 02:07:45.880 --> 02:07:49.720 And for folks like Herb, talk about really showcase 02:07:49.720 --> 02:07:51.800 in one of the greats now of the new era. 02:07:52.760 --> 02:07:54.120 First, you gotta do it. 02:07:54.120 --> 02:07:56.520 Rapid and cold, continue to play the strat. 02:07:56.520 --> 02:07:58.040 The one for low ground, front side here. 02:07:58.040 --> 02:08:00.320 Now, this time they do have low material counts, 02:08:00.320 --> 02:08:02.760 so they will need a big refresh. 02:08:02.760 --> 02:08:06.080 Honestly, didn't worry me just one bit. 02:08:06.080 --> 02:08:07.040 finds one though. 02:08:07.040 --> 02:08:09.200 They have eight eliminations already, 02:08:09.200 --> 02:08:11.200 continuing the pressure on the lobby. 02:08:11.200 --> 02:08:14.000 Absolute destruction here on NA. 02:08:14.000 --> 02:08:15.160 And really have to take note, 02:08:15.160 --> 02:08:17.280 if Beto finds himself in first place 02:08:17.280 --> 02:08:18.640 when the tournament is over, 02:08:18.640 --> 02:08:23.200 he will be a new two region champion EU and NA Central, 02:08:23.200 --> 02:08:25.120 R&B two of the hardest regions 02:08:25.120 --> 02:08:26.800 to win a championship on. 02:08:26.800 --> 02:08:29.640 But he's still got a quarter of the tournament left to play. 02:08:29.640 --> 02:08:32.240 Tyler, forced by himself, loses chance. 02:08:32.240 --> 02:08:34.280 Backside and Zoni's getting pressured by Jack. 02:08:34.280 --> 02:08:35.600 N-Pen and a few other teams. 02:08:35.600 --> 02:08:38.640 Everybody forced to rotate in finds a fizz trying to take advantage of that 02:08:38.640 --> 02:08:41.320 But he runs into Peterbock foil on the other side of the wall 02:08:41.320 --> 02:08:45.080 Let me for him looks like Peterbock foil have their hands full so they don't even look back 02:08:45.080 --> 02:08:49.920 But I'll be tuned back in the cold. He's by himself. No extra healed. Don't build 02:08:49.920 --> 02:08:54.880 This is what the entire lobby needs to have a chance and they're only in top 20 right now 02:08:54.880 --> 02:09:01.120 Like barely holding on here for cold to fall the runway really starts to become available now for everyone else 02:09:01.120 --> 02:09:04.000 So look at this, Venom, lost in the process, 02:09:04.000 --> 02:09:06.280 Curve forced to play high ground by himself. 02:09:06.280 --> 02:09:09.760 Meanwhile, Acorn and Bolts find a two set elimination now low, 02:09:09.760 --> 02:09:11.280 and then we jump right into Boyle, 02:09:11.280 --> 02:09:13.120 who also has a refresh of their own, 02:09:13.120 --> 02:09:16.920 and everyone is clawing back into this competition now. 02:09:16.920 --> 02:09:19.400 Yeah, with first place, Kyle, we got Curve by himself. 02:09:19.400 --> 02:09:21.600 We got Agus Rich with Acorn and Bolts, 02:09:21.600 --> 02:09:23.080 even Peterbot and Boyle, 02:09:23.080 --> 02:09:26.120 that all could be our first place team after this game, 02:09:26.120 --> 02:09:28.080 and they're ready to make it so. 02:09:28.080 --> 02:09:30.480 Big Elim up towards the top. 02:09:30.480 --> 02:09:33.560 Peterbot and Pollo, they send it up towards height. 02:09:33.560 --> 02:09:35.160 Give themselves a huge advantage. 02:09:35.160 --> 02:09:37.520 And another four points for those eliminations, 02:09:37.520 --> 02:09:39.640 even more with the placement as it comes in. 02:09:39.640 --> 02:09:41.280 But down below the counter part, 02:09:41.280 --> 02:09:43.200 Adres and Ritual still running wild. 02:09:43.200 --> 02:09:44.640 Five eliminations of their own. 02:09:44.640 --> 02:09:46.040 They have pizza, they have splash, 02:09:46.040 --> 02:09:47.760 they have materials on top. 02:09:47.760 --> 02:09:51.120 They don't even necessarily need a lead of elimination. 02:09:51.120 --> 02:09:53.320 You line it up, they will knock it down. 02:09:53.320 --> 02:09:55.280 Bolts and Acorn here, four eliminations, 02:09:55.280 --> 02:09:56.120 now on the low ground. 02:09:56.120 --> 02:09:57.600 Peterbot and Pollo, we already know how, 02:09:57.600 --> 02:10:00.380 solidified their high ground position. 02:10:00.380 --> 02:10:02.620 Bolz just continuing to do what he does best. 02:10:02.620 --> 02:10:04.060 That's a monstrous refresh, 02:10:04.060 --> 02:10:05.380 and he picks up everything here. 02:10:05.380 --> 02:10:06.860 Gets the Chug Jug as well. 02:10:06.860 --> 02:10:10.980 He's just living off the Siphon, but no Acorn. 02:10:10.980 --> 02:10:13.140 Gets caught there by Javi and a Minish. 02:10:13.140 --> 02:10:15.380 Tyler's still holding on here as well. 02:10:15.380 --> 02:10:18.580 Somehow finds his way into top five. 02:10:18.580 --> 02:10:21.140 When we last checked in, it was 20th place, 02:10:21.140 --> 02:10:23.020 and Tyler is just clutching up, 02:10:23.020 --> 02:10:25.100 showing us how badly he wants it. 02:10:25.100 --> 02:10:26.220 Bolz, you know the world ground though. 02:10:26.220 --> 02:10:28.680 Javi in a minute here, pull 2-0 versus, of course, 02:10:28.680 --> 02:10:30.360 Peterbot, while your pressure from the top, 02:10:30.360 --> 02:10:31.920 it's not looking too good here. 02:10:31.920 --> 02:10:33.920 Yeah, well, it's just getting fresh from all angles. 02:10:33.920 --> 02:10:36.360 Both of the duo sandwich and eat him alive, 02:10:36.360 --> 02:10:38.160 but there comes the drop down coming in. 02:10:38.160 --> 02:10:40.800 Peterbot realizing it's going over recycle builds, 02:10:40.800 --> 02:10:42.280 they can maintain their present, 02:10:42.280 --> 02:10:44.040 but a blessing for them is the same blessing 02:10:44.040 --> 02:10:44.880 from down below. 02:10:44.880 --> 02:10:47.880 Javi in a minute are able to utilize that same scenario, 02:10:47.880 --> 02:10:50.320 and rightfully so, look at their material count once, 02:10:50.320 --> 02:10:53.400 so they were almost out of mats altogether. 02:10:53.400 --> 02:10:54.560 And if Peterbot knows what to do here, 02:10:54.560 --> 02:10:57.680 He's just got to keep that relentless pressure coming down. 02:10:57.680 --> 02:10:58.880 Hopefully he can pull for the win. 02:10:58.880 --> 02:11:01.000 But Javi comes up, finds a little cheeky angle 02:11:01.000 --> 02:11:02.760 from the side there, but he's got no mass. 02:11:02.760 --> 02:11:04.760 Peterbot also punished two. 02:11:04.760 --> 02:11:06.480 Aminus has got nothing, but Boya is coming down 02:11:06.480 --> 02:11:07.640 to finish the job. 02:11:07.640 --> 02:11:10.240 Peterbot's already got the full conclusion there, 02:11:10.240 --> 02:11:13.600 and now Jacob, it's just looking like a 2v1. 02:11:13.600 --> 02:11:17.000 Yeah, basically Javi's living on borrowed time there. 02:11:17.000 --> 02:11:18.520 He might know it as well. 02:11:18.520 --> 02:11:21.840 No extra material, zone pulling on over. 02:11:21.840 --> 02:11:23.400 Yes, he can farm up a little bit, 02:11:23.400 --> 02:11:28.000 Double Thunder burst up above the mythic AR. They're gonna melt through those bills 02:11:28.000 --> 02:11:31.920 And that's why you see layer by layer Peter button poyo dropping down 02:11:31.920 --> 02:11:38.800 They just don't want to take any big risk here because they know this one is definitely in the bag nine elimination so far and if they're 02:11:38.800 --> 02:11:42.160 Able to clean this one up get that elimination on the hobby 02:11:42.160 --> 02:11:49.880 This could be a double digit elimination victory for a owl they catch fire at the right time Peter button poyo on top 02:11:49.880 --> 02:11:54.600 You know they were due for a win. It totally kept Sam we're looking at their performances 02:11:54.600 --> 02:12:01.160 We're seeing make these any game, but the biggest question that was remaining was when are they gonna get that victory out? 02:12:01.160 --> 02:12:07.120 You know what they couldn't have done it in a better time and add a better game right when you have cold and rapid there 02:12:07.120 --> 02:12:13.600 Take a fallen early to that right there is gonna conclude game number nine now Peter bottom boy. You'll see to finally done 02:12:13.600 --> 02:12:18.600 It's happening. It's happening. 02:12:18.600 --> 02:12:21.600 Peter, my boy. Oh, okay. Okay. 02:12:21.600 --> 02:12:24.600 It's no Kelly. It's happening. 02:12:24.600 --> 02:12:25.600 We knew it was going to happen. 02:12:25.600 --> 02:12:28.600 We didn't know when we knew we didn't know why or how, 02:12:28.600 --> 02:12:30.600 but it's happening right now. 02:12:30.600 --> 02:12:33.600 Three games left to go game number nine. 02:12:33.600 --> 02:12:35.600 They finally decide, you know what, Zeke, 02:12:35.600 --> 02:12:37.600 you know what, we've been quiet. 02:12:37.600 --> 02:12:39.600 We've been under the radar. 02:12:39.600 --> 02:12:41.600 We've been consistent, but on the DL, 02:12:41.600 --> 02:12:42.600 you know what, Zeke, 02:12:42.600 --> 02:12:45.600 We're going to perfectly overdrive all the way up in the height. 02:12:45.600 --> 02:12:47.600 We're going to shut that down, take it over. 02:12:47.600 --> 02:12:49.600 And you know what, Zeke, we're going to get ourselves a victory royale. 02:12:49.600 --> 02:12:50.600 Kelly, they're doing it. 02:12:50.600 --> 02:12:51.600 It's happening. 02:12:51.600 --> 02:12:52.600 It's happening. 02:12:52.600 --> 02:12:55.600 You know, they say that there's two inevitabilities in life. 02:12:55.600 --> 02:12:56.600 Death and death. 02:12:59.600 --> 02:13:01.600 We're in the final games. 02:13:01.600 --> 02:13:02.600 It is just inevitable. 02:13:02.600 --> 02:13:04.600 Hereby, employ you. 02:13:04.600 --> 02:13:06.600 You see them do it time and time again. 02:13:06.600 --> 02:13:07.600 There it is. 02:13:07.600 --> 02:13:08.600 Popped up time and time again. 02:13:08.600 --> 02:13:09.600 They're lost. 02:13:09.600 --> 02:13:10.600 Over. 02:13:10.600 --> 02:13:11.600 Theaterbots done. 02:13:11.600 --> 02:13:15.800 And then they wrap up day one, always still in the content by the way. 02:13:15.800 --> 02:13:22.600 But day two is where they come, show how they do it time and time again. 02:13:22.600 --> 02:13:29.240 Peterbot doing this crazy height steal to go onto a curve who was a solo four guy 02:13:29.240 --> 02:13:32.720 had no chance when you have Peterbot and Poyle flying up the sky. 02:13:33.720 --> 02:13:36.920 I mean, you know, there's kind of a conversation amongst us saying, yeah, 02:13:36.920 --> 02:13:40.520 you know, they've been pretty quiet this grant and they really have been. 02:13:40.520 --> 02:13:42.160 I mean, their best place up was a fifth place. 02:13:42.160 --> 02:13:44.360 We're used to seeing these guys just win games, 02:13:44.360 --> 02:13:47.680 take higher ground convincingly and just has not happened. 02:13:47.680 --> 02:13:50.480 But that being said, they kept themselves in contention, right? 02:13:50.480 --> 02:13:51.800 Even though they weren't having these pop-up games, 02:13:51.800 --> 02:13:53.640 even they weren't having those performances 02:13:53.640 --> 02:13:55.400 that we're used to seeing out of them. 02:13:55.400 --> 02:13:57.440 They were still in like sixth place going into that game, 02:13:57.440 --> 02:13:59.200 right? Just close enough to the first place 02:13:59.200 --> 02:14:01.680 where it's like, okay, technically it's possible 02:14:01.680 --> 02:14:03.520 for them to kind of catch back up. 02:14:03.520 --> 02:14:05.000 You know, there's still, there's like, 02:14:05.000 --> 02:14:07.520 they're just always flying around, always buzzing around. 02:14:07.520 --> 02:14:09.200 And then it happens, they win the game. 02:14:09.200 --> 02:14:13.760 It's like we literally brought it to fruition by speaking it into existence. 02:14:13.760 --> 02:14:15.200 These guys are back. 02:14:15.520 --> 02:14:18.360 They win the game and I saw how many points they have. 02:14:18.360 --> 02:14:20.440 I can't wait to see the leaderboard after we come back. 02:14:21.240 --> 02:14:22.520 Oh, vivid. 02:14:22.720 --> 02:14:25.360 You stole what I was going to say. 02:14:25.360 --> 02:14:28.400 Four hundred and eighty five points. 02:14:29.000 --> 02:14:32.720 We knew going into that cold and rapid had four forty six. 02:14:33.360 --> 02:14:34.360 But where did they end? 02:14:34.360 --> 02:14:36.160 Have they overtaken the number one spot? 02:14:36.160 --> 02:14:38.800 Let's find out after this short break. 02:14:38.900 --> 02:14:40.260 Don't you go anywhere. 02:14:40.360 --> 02:14:41.660 We'll see you right after this. 02:16:41.660 --> 02:16:44.660 Wait, get you on the plate. 02:16:44.660 --> 02:16:47.660 Oh, my God! 02:16:52.660 --> 02:16:54.660 And I don't know how to feel about it. 02:16:54.660 --> 02:16:57.660 You're not used to losing. Getting beaten? 02:16:57.660 --> 02:17:02.660 Not like this! These players are just so locked in. 02:17:02.660 --> 02:17:04.660 Could it be the milk? 02:17:04.660 --> 02:17:06.660 Mm-hmm. 02:17:06.660 --> 02:17:07.160 Pfft. 02:17:09.660 --> 02:17:11.660 Aaaaaaahhh! 02:17:11.660 --> 02:17:13.660 Aaaaaaahhh! 02:17:15.660 --> 02:17:16.660 It's okay. 02:17:18.660 --> 02:17:20.660 Aaaaaahhh! 02:17:20.660 --> 02:17:22.660 Stay there. 02:17:36.660 --> 02:17:50.500 Welcome back, my family, Ethan. Game number nine. Eat a bob polly to the side. You know 02:17:50.500 --> 02:17:55.300 what, Z? It's time to get active. We're going to get ourselves a little victory out with 02:17:55.300 --> 02:18:05.060 10 points. They end that game with 485 points. Kelly, of course. Of course it happens like 02:18:05.060 --> 02:18:10.740 this. I know I let you write the script for this major. Um, and man, oh man, of course, 02:18:10.740 --> 02:18:16.220 of course, with three games left to go, we get a VR out of Peterbott and Pollo. Now, 02:18:16.220 --> 02:18:20.380 now of all times, Kelly, now. This is when they always do it. They always like to build 02:18:20.380 --> 02:18:23.820 a little bit of a story because we always go into every major thinking that Peterbott 02:18:23.820 --> 02:18:27.620 and Pollo are going to run away with it. That's just boring writing, Zeke. 02:18:27.620 --> 02:18:31.340 So instead they make everyone sweat a little bit. They have a little bit of a struggle 02:18:31.340 --> 02:18:37.260 through day one and then it's day two in the second half of day two where they really start to show 02:18:37.260 --> 02:18:43.420 everyone why they are the demons of North American Central Peterbott and Pollo. Now with just a six 02:18:43.420 --> 02:18:49.660 point lead over curve and then oh but more importantly vivid I'm looking at cold and rapid 02:18:49.660 --> 02:18:55.420 dropping down but again that drop is not that far. All of these teams are close enough I mean 02:18:55.420 --> 02:18:59.900 30 points separates first and fifth place but I mean Peterbott and Pollo it may have taken 02:18:59.900 --> 02:19:03.740 nine games for them to finally go ahead and take that throw up there in the number one spot on the 02:19:03.740 --> 02:19:09.900 leaderboard. But from an individualistic standpoint, Peterbot is still playing like we're used to him 02:19:09.900 --> 02:19:15.020 seeing like I'm looking at the damage out over the course of these nine games. He's currently at 8,300. 02:19:15.020 --> 02:19:21.260 In second place right now is actually Aizures with 7,300. So Peterbot's a thousand damaged 02:19:21.260 --> 02:19:25.180 out ahead and that's exactly what we were kind of used to seeing. Sure, he's getting beat out 02:19:25.180 --> 02:19:26.860 out right now by the likes of, you know, 02:19:26.860 --> 02:19:29.580 Eager's, Curve, Venno in the Elimps category, 02:19:29.580 --> 02:19:31.020 but he's still up there with those guys, 02:19:31.020 --> 02:19:33.380 top four, the individual Elimps. 02:19:33.380 --> 02:19:34.940 These guys are doing good all of a sudden. 02:19:34.940 --> 02:19:38.540 Finally they get that win and now they're at the top. 02:19:38.540 --> 02:19:40.140 I just can't believe it. 02:19:40.140 --> 02:19:44.220 I, it's like, I just, the story is what it's gonna be. 02:19:44.220 --> 02:19:46.740 And of course, right now is when Peter Bonapoi 02:19:46.740 --> 02:19:48.020 would decide to pull out a win 02:19:48.020 --> 02:19:49.860 and take over the number one spot. 02:19:49.860 --> 02:19:52.540 Well, let's start to look at this, this top three, right? 02:19:52.540 --> 02:19:54.420 Kerb and Benno. 02:19:54.420 --> 02:19:58.420 We see them in this last game get a 12 with eight Elins, 02:19:58.420 --> 02:19:59.260 right? 02:19:59.260 --> 02:20:01.180 And it's funny because Levin joins our call 02:20:01.180 --> 02:20:02.700 and he's like, ah man, that's crazy. 02:20:02.700 --> 02:20:03.540 That's not a guy. 02:20:03.540 --> 02:20:04.940 Where's that guy from? 02:20:04.940 --> 02:20:05.860 He's from NA, right? 02:20:05.860 --> 02:20:07.500 We're just like, okay, buddy. 02:20:07.500 --> 02:20:09.140 Okay, Levy-Poo. 02:20:09.140 --> 02:20:12.140 Oh man, these guys are going crazy. 02:20:12.140 --> 02:20:14.740 57 elimination, Kelly. 02:20:14.740 --> 02:20:16.620 You called out a number not that long ago 02:20:16.620 --> 02:20:19.220 on the over on EU, what their record was. 02:20:19.220 --> 02:20:20.340 We're right there. 02:20:20.340 --> 02:20:21.540 We're right there with three late games. 02:20:21.540 --> 02:20:22.540 Let's go! 02:20:22.540 --> 02:20:23.540 That is great. 02:20:23.540 --> 02:20:27.780 And we can imagine that if a little misstep happened over here with Venno, if that misstep 02:20:27.780 --> 02:20:32.940 did not happen, that they would probably even have more limitations if not win that game. 02:20:32.940 --> 02:20:35.100 But unfortunately, Venno did go down to this. 02:20:35.100 --> 02:20:36.100 Oh! 02:20:36.100 --> 02:20:37.100 Right here. 02:20:37.100 --> 02:20:41.660 Uh, however, her was able to hold the high ground for just a little bit, but once 02:20:41.660 --> 02:20:45.100 some of the other teams noticed that her was a solo on high ground, obviously it 02:20:45.100 --> 02:20:46.100 was going to be stolen. 02:20:46.100 --> 02:20:52.580 But regardless, still having that many eliminations is going to keep them up in our leaderboard. 02:20:52.580 --> 02:20:54.660 We're going to ignore that, okay? 02:20:54.660 --> 02:21:00.820 Let me poo his wild, by the way, Zeke, but I mean, yeah, the standings are just going 02:21:00.820 --> 02:21:01.820 absolutely crazy. 02:21:01.820 --> 02:21:05.920 It would be a lot different right there if, I know, did not get bumped off of the high 02:21:05.920 --> 02:21:06.920 ground. 02:21:06.920 --> 02:21:09.820 He's going to be kicking himself for that one, but close on their heels, man. 02:21:09.820 --> 02:21:12.780 You know, I talked about this first through fifth place, only separated right now by 02:21:12.780 --> 02:21:16.380 30 points, cold and rapid for the first time. 02:21:16.380 --> 02:21:19.660 We kind of see them slip out of that top two spots. 02:21:19.660 --> 02:21:23.500 It's been a while since we have not seen them towards the top. 02:21:23.500 --> 02:21:25.660 Rough little go for them in that game right there. 02:21:25.660 --> 02:21:27.180 But still, here's the crazy thing. 02:21:27.180 --> 02:21:29.980 All five of these teams going into the last three games, 02:21:29.980 --> 02:21:32.220 any one of them could win it. 02:21:32.220 --> 02:21:34.380 Yeah, I mean, even looking eight years in ritual, right? 02:21:34.380 --> 02:21:37.420 467, right behind cold rapid, a single point. 02:21:37.420 --> 02:21:40.420 Even Acorn and Boltz, 455. 02:21:40.420 --> 02:21:44.580 and Acre and Bolts get a third place 5 E-Limps in that game. 02:21:44.580 --> 02:21:48.140 Right? Like, this is absolutely going to come down to the wire right now. 02:21:48.620 --> 02:21:51.700 There is no clear in that way like, hey, you know, 02:21:51.700 --> 02:21:54.900 this team is ahead by our point, they're just flying. 02:21:54.900 --> 02:21:58.860 It's like every team right now on NA in this Top 10 is shining, right? 02:21:58.860 --> 02:22:01.100 For different reasons and at different times. 02:22:01.460 --> 02:22:05.460 So I'm almost wondering, like, now that all of these trios are duo, excuse me, 02:22:05.460 --> 02:22:08.100 the Top 5 are firing on all cylinders, 02:22:08.340 --> 02:22:09.780 where do we go from here, Kelly? 02:22:09.780 --> 02:22:14.780 with three games left. I mean 02:22:14.780 --> 02:22:15.780 for a corner in Bolts, I think 02:22:15.780 --> 02:22:17.780 that today for the start of the 02:22:17.780 --> 02:22:18.780 two weeks, it was a little bit 02:22:18.780 --> 02:22:19.780 rough. We saw them only place 02:22:19.780 --> 02:22:21.780 out of 11th yesterday and then 02:22:21.780 --> 02:22:22.780 today starting it off getting a 02:22:22.780 --> 02:22:24.780 12th and then a 32nd place. And 02:22:24.780 --> 02:22:25.780 we actually saw them for the 02:22:25.780 --> 02:22:26.780 first time getting storm 02:22:26.780 --> 02:22:27.780 damage, which we didn't take 02:22:27.780 --> 02:22:29.780 out all for day one. So 02:22:29.780 --> 02:22:30.780 obviously having these tiny 02:22:30.780 --> 02:22:31.780 changes that we've already 02:22:31.780 --> 02:22:32.780 seen them make and now 02:22:32.780 --> 02:22:33.780 seeing them back in the 02:22:33.780 --> 02:22:34.780 leaderboard vivid. That's 02:22:34.780 --> 02:22:35.780 what I want to see out of 02:22:35.780 --> 02:22:36.780 a corner in Bolts. Yeah, 02:22:36.780 --> 02:22:37.780 we'd love to see them kind 02:22:37.780 --> 02:22:38.780 of make some sort of 02:22:38.780 --> 02:22:43.820 time to talk. I'm excited. I want to get back into the games. Oh man. Jacob here, 02:22:43.820 --> 02:22:48.300 MDF. We got a competition on our hands, boys. Take it away. Bring the hype. 02:22:50.060 --> 02:22:54.860 We definitely do. And I mean, we have the best jobs in the world. We have to sit here and watch 02:22:54.860 --> 02:23:00.940 this go down in real time. Y'all see it in about three minutes delay, Jacob, but my gosh, 02:23:00.940 --> 02:23:06.940 it is so good right now. Now, it's definitely been exciting for sure. Our last three FNCS 02:23:06.940 --> 02:23:10.700 this major's before this. We're decided by four or less 02:23:10.700 --> 02:23:13.900 eliminations. Yeah, the point is a little bit more spread than 02:23:13.900 --> 02:23:17.020 that. But the way this one is edging out to people got another 02:23:17.020 --> 02:23:19.900 photo finish on our hands. I'm strapped up ready to go. I'm 02:23:19.900 --> 02:23:22.620 literally at the edge of my seat right now. Yeah, that's right. 02:23:22.620 --> 02:23:24.540 You know, my attention is really starting to shift 02:23:24.540 --> 02:23:28.220 towards that top six. We are looking at a 50 point 02:23:28.220 --> 02:23:30.940 difference between six in first place. Javi and 02:23:30.940 --> 02:23:33.500 Adminish, one of the most underrated teams now are 02:23:33.500 --> 02:23:36.460 somehow finding themselves in the conversation for a 02:23:36.460 --> 02:23:40.300 championship run and no one is playing perfect so far. 02:23:40.300 --> 02:23:41.980 But I hear the battle, boss. 02:23:41.980 --> 02:23:43.760 So let's see it one more time. 02:23:48.620 --> 02:23:51.220 Three games left, monster. 02:23:51.220 --> 02:23:54.260 Just three games remaining in this tournament. 02:23:54.260 --> 02:23:57.220 And already for the last three games that we've seen, 02:23:57.220 --> 02:24:00.540 we've seen that leaderboard shuffle up so much 02:24:00.540 --> 02:24:02.580 from Golden Rapid being in first, 02:24:02.580 --> 02:24:04.140 Curve and Benno having a chance 02:24:04.140 --> 02:24:07.440 that now Peterbot and Boyo being on top. 02:24:07.440 --> 02:24:09.700 And even that race at the bottom for the bubble, 02:24:09.700 --> 02:24:14.000 the top 13, two points separate, going to Dusseldorf 02:24:14.000 --> 02:24:17.080 and having to go and try one more time. 02:24:17.080 --> 02:24:18.160 Yeah, it's so crazy, man. 02:24:18.160 --> 02:24:19.720 Teams like Klicks and Higgs now 02:24:19.720 --> 02:24:21.120 are suddenly finding themselves 02:24:21.120 --> 02:24:24.320 in a whole different type of scenario, right? 02:24:24.320 --> 02:24:27.560 Where they have to fight for being in the top 13 02:24:27.560 --> 02:24:29.760 at this point, trying to get the championship. 02:24:29.760 --> 02:24:32.800 Wayne is starting to be pushed out of the question. 02:24:32.800 --> 02:24:35.660 Curve and Venom though, switching up their strategy of this. 02:24:35.660 --> 02:24:38.800 I'm gonna go a little bit more aggressively to the north side, 02:24:38.800 --> 02:24:42.460 trying to see if there was something here to be... 02:24:42.460 --> 02:24:45.240 Or there, but look at this, finds Lil' Lamo. 02:24:45.240 --> 02:24:47.240 You happy about that one? 02:24:47.240 --> 02:24:50.560 Was Curve contested, or did he get those out of the sky? 02:24:50.560 --> 02:24:52.240 That's just my biggest question. 02:24:52.240 --> 02:24:53.080 I don't know. 02:24:53.080 --> 02:24:55.640 Either way, it's just a testament of whether it's 02:24:55.640 --> 02:24:58.400 the beginning, middle, or end of these games. 02:24:58.400 --> 02:25:00.360 I don't know what they ate for breakfast, 02:25:00.360 --> 02:25:02.360 but I need to order me two of those 02:25:02.360 --> 02:25:04.620 because they are just firing on all cylinders. 02:25:04.620 --> 02:25:09.080 QK, contract, they had such a great moment 02:25:09.080 --> 02:25:10.960 to end the day yesterday. 02:25:10.960 --> 02:25:14.400 Most of us didn't even know where he came from. 02:25:14.400 --> 02:25:16.280 That first place, eight elimination, 02:25:16.280 --> 02:25:18.120 that burst of them inside of the bubble. 02:25:18.120 --> 02:25:21.400 Today, however, hasn't necessarily been going their way, 02:25:21.400 --> 02:25:23.800 but they are still so close to contention. 02:25:23.800 --> 02:25:25.760 They just need to close out strong. 02:25:25.760 --> 02:25:28.560 You know, what I'm thinking about is Venom and Curve. 02:25:28.560 --> 02:25:30.720 Venom's probably telling Curve like, bro, 02:25:30.720 --> 02:25:34.160 on the lookout to not be surprised if you don't pull your lens you know because 02:25:34.160 --> 02:25:39.200 they're drop keys technically big enough and if you know Venom he's got that main 02:25:39.200 --> 02:25:45.000 character energy right so does Peterbot like Peterbot the way he treats clicks in 02:25:45.000 --> 02:25:49.840 a finals or any other rivalry that's neck-to-neck he will definitely land on 02:25:49.840 --> 02:25:54.120 someone like Venom as well just because the storyline would be so exciting to 02:25:54.120 --> 02:26:00.240 watch and they're all that close right 20 Neco just trying to go ahead and 02:26:00.240 --> 02:26:05.360 get out of a bad spot both of them kind of separated like Lex got a good opportunity here 02:26:05.360 --> 02:26:09.280 took too long to go ahead and execute on that chance so they're going to be forced to disengage 02:26:09.280 --> 02:26:14.800 us next week on 20th trying to push them back further and further and that's the thing about 02:26:14.800 --> 02:26:19.440 these split drops to air if you don't go ahead and get those eliminations on the contested drop 02:26:19.440 --> 02:26:23.120 it makes fighting that move that much harder and after a blanks go ahead pressing on the 02:26:23.120 --> 02:26:28.400 musk outside of the riptides we have a good 2v1 opportunity here continuously trading shop 02:26:28.400 --> 02:26:30.020 Must not going down without a fight. 02:26:30.020 --> 02:26:31.700 Another chance there is Levin. 02:26:31.700 --> 02:26:34.300 Author, big tag, 26 HP. 02:26:34.300 --> 02:26:37.100 Even the knock on the blanks, he has a chance to 2v1. 02:26:37.100 --> 02:26:39.260 In comes Liquid, his duo fondly arrived. 02:26:39.260 --> 02:26:42.540 They clean up that elimination that the party does not stop here. 02:26:42.540 --> 02:26:45.380 Threads and Veer, who are once inside of the bubble, 02:26:45.380 --> 02:26:49.060 fell out or ready to make up for those mistakes early on. 02:26:49.060 --> 02:26:50.740 They have the fizz, they have the shockwave. 02:26:50.740 --> 02:26:53.740 They're trying to close the gap and figure out exactly where he went. 02:26:53.740 --> 02:26:55.900 He heard the noise onto Mako, so they're just going to drop down 02:26:55.900 --> 02:26:57.620 and try to clean up his email. 02:26:57.620 --> 02:26:59.740 They're doing a great job chasing them down right now. 02:26:59.740 --> 02:27:01.620 Beers got some sights here. 02:27:01.620 --> 02:27:04.660 Thorets got control of the coast as well. 02:27:04.660 --> 02:27:06.100 Should be another tag. 02:27:06.100 --> 02:27:08.020 And, fortunately, they don't quite find it, 02:27:08.020 --> 02:27:09.980 but this is still great damage, 02:27:09.980 --> 02:27:11.780 and they want these points right there. 02:27:11.780 --> 02:27:14.780 Again, found themselves in the top 10 02:27:14.780 --> 02:27:18.780 and then fell within around that 15-place range 02:27:18.780 --> 02:27:19.620 after slipping out. 02:27:19.620 --> 02:27:22.460 So, Beer and Thorets still have some big, big games 02:27:22.460 --> 02:27:23.300 to be out here. 02:27:23.300 --> 02:27:28.300 Just getting more and more crowded over here towards the riptives though. 02:27:28.300 --> 02:27:32.300 Got Nick and Skinnycat moving on over. 02:27:32.300 --> 02:27:35.300 Threads and Veer kind of gave up positioning, chasing for that Elim. 02:27:35.300 --> 02:27:38.300 Then you have Mus and Liquid on the other side of riptives. 02:27:38.300 --> 02:27:42.300 Even though they were able to get the one couple of eliminations there, 02:27:42.300 --> 02:27:45.300 I don't think they advanced that position. All two left takes and clicks. 02:27:45.300 --> 02:27:48.300 They get the legendary drop this time out of Wonkyland. 02:27:48.300 --> 02:27:52.300 Better chance at those rare chests, more gold. 02:27:52.300 --> 02:27:56.860 And already at their POI, they almost get maxed to mats at that mini-game. 02:27:56.860 --> 02:28:00.580 They have the wonky wheels, so they have everything they need in terms of finding success. 02:28:00.580 --> 02:28:03.220 And early on, obviously, it is only the first zone. 02:28:03.220 --> 02:28:06.020 It seems like it is moving on over the western side of the map. 02:28:09.740 --> 02:28:13.180 Last time we saw them pull a zone like this, though, they did win the game, right? 02:28:13.180 --> 02:28:16.500 If it came this way, put some pigs, 02:28:16.500 --> 02:28:21.180 calling on some Kinects here to try to pick something big happen at this point. 02:28:22.300 --> 02:28:29.300 Cold and Rapid. Have you gotten that feeling of deja vu at all? 02:28:29.300 --> 02:28:34.620 I can agree. They're not changing up their strategy. They don't even go underneath Dark 02:28:34.620 --> 02:28:39.740 Dominion unless they have to. It kind of builds up towards the top. Now he doesn't have to 02:28:39.740 --> 02:28:45.140 aim with those shotguns. He's going to be the primary source of finding their surge. 02:28:45.140 --> 02:28:49.540 Rapid the big brain. The IGL of this team so far has been rotating them very, 02:28:49.540 --> 02:28:54.160 very well in the good portion of the games but the last two I think those those 02:28:54.160 --> 02:28:58.520 are the ones that hurt the most 10-place four elimination 17-place with one 02:28:58.520 --> 02:29:03.360 eliminations kind of giving up that top spot on the leaderboard 02:29:05.360 --> 02:29:13.540 the other side here a quiet rotate for them right now but close to this dark 02:29:13.540 --> 02:29:20.780 the minions. I have a curious strategy here is the coming moments. They've almost continued 02:29:20.780 --> 02:29:26.820 to position themselves around some of that. Competition up on the standings. Acorn and 02:29:26.820 --> 02:29:30.180 Bolt on the other side. Bolt is very situated right now. 02:29:30.180 --> 02:29:39.540 Yeah, I think he looks down towards Wonkyland, but you can kind of see that big base over 02:29:39.540 --> 02:29:44.260 towards the fairsville, it's fully blocked off for that direction so no easy peeks from there. 02:29:44.260 --> 02:29:47.940 Pass the look elsewhere, over towards Glottane landing though where power and pen to make 02:29:47.940 --> 02:29:53.220 their selves known. After Reek and Cooper drop spot, back on Orbert towards that launch pad, 02:29:53.220 --> 02:29:56.820 typically where the primary source of rotation goes through, Cooper down below, tries to 02:29:56.820 --> 02:30:01.220 look for a cheeky shot onto power, but here Reek's back one momentarily, pressure continues 02:30:01.220 --> 02:30:04.660 to fly his way, but Reek was able to find an opening onto power, getting the shield 02:30:04.660 --> 02:30:08.500 on just like that but it took us so much damage from the storm itself yeah they 02:30:08.500 --> 02:30:11.540 have to go in the same box heal up with those flashes because they were one 02:30:11.540 --> 02:30:16.100 shot away from going down you know separate them from the top of the main spot 02:30:16.100 --> 02:30:21.220 right now you cannot afford to fall here we think we could do enough to push 02:30:21.220 --> 02:30:25.900 this team off but at what cost you saw them again healing up a bunch so we 02:30:25.900 --> 02:30:29.620 can't even tell if they're actually out positive after this exchange right 02:30:29.620 --> 02:30:35.860 They don't want to get us, they have to go for free. 02:30:35.860 --> 02:30:40.420 They get the good damage on the power, they shockwave, they fizz, they close the distance 02:30:40.420 --> 02:30:41.420 and now they get the knock. 02:30:41.420 --> 02:30:45.540 Instead of cleaning up instantly, they know they're going to take damage from the storm, 02:30:45.540 --> 02:30:48.060 let the siphon do its thing, Rete's going to go on the chase. 02:30:48.060 --> 02:30:51.260 He's trying to run away and he's just trying to follow suit. 02:30:51.260 --> 02:30:54.300 Only thing is, he only has one shockwave left, so yep, he's going to have to use 02:30:54.300 --> 02:30:57.220 the fizz to really make that shockwave worth it. 02:30:57.220 --> 02:31:01.380 up on top of that mountain. That's gonna give them a huge bird's eye view to try to figure out where 02:31:01.380 --> 02:31:05.540 Pentel actually ran to. Spots the builds in the distance, safe landing into the water. 02:31:05.540 --> 02:31:09.700 He is so far away from Cooper now that gives Pentel a 1v1 if you can just figure out it 02:31:09.700 --> 02:31:14.500 actually is a 1v1. There's no way he's off. He's already going right back to the bodies 02:31:14.500 --> 02:31:20.900 thinking if they came together. Cooper's here waiting to catch him. More big damage here. 02:31:20.900 --> 02:31:25.300 Now this is sort of an extract. It seems to be other duos here in the area that are just 02:31:25.300 --> 02:31:26.900 I'm just going to stick into the usual mode, 02:31:26.900 --> 02:31:29.140 just going to be careful, but there it is. 02:31:29.140 --> 02:31:30.300 Finally, they clean things up here, 02:31:30.300 --> 02:31:31.260 the latte landing. 02:31:32.140 --> 02:31:34.700 Be a great two-piece elimination for them, 02:31:34.700 --> 02:31:36.380 giving them that little bit of cushion 02:31:36.380 --> 02:31:37.780 that they were looking for here. 02:31:37.780 --> 02:31:41.180 They're not quite safe again inside the top 13 just yet, 02:31:41.180 --> 02:31:45.260 but they are there now after the eight points paper 02:31:45.260 --> 02:31:46.100 in there. 02:31:46.100 --> 02:31:47.140 You know, all visual and braids. 02:31:47.140 --> 02:31:47.980 What is this? 02:31:47.980 --> 02:31:50.260 This is a completely different strap. 02:31:50.260 --> 02:31:56.260 here we got me shaking my head scratching it trying to wonder what right 02:31:56.260 --> 02:31:59.860 wrong typically we see in the team like this spread out on these mountain ranges 02:31:59.860 --> 02:32:02.940 that you see there in the mini map and that's how they get a lot of their 02:32:02.940 --> 02:32:06.980 serves this time around maybe try to wait for somebody to lurk in late find 02:32:06.980 --> 02:32:11.220 something hopefully they make a mistake timing if it doesn't work out though 02:32:11.220 --> 02:32:14.980 might put them behind the rest of the curve is QK and con find themselves 02:32:14.980 --> 02:32:18.140 elimination over here towards painted bombs instead of going on a wild 02:32:18.140 --> 02:32:23.680 Goose chase though. They're gonna let that solo player run away. Maybe they could turn back and get the elimination later 02:32:23.680 --> 02:32:27.440 We know we're gonna go for reboot eventually, but for QK and Khan man 02:32:27.440 --> 02:32:32.300 This is gonna be a good start to the game get that damage early and once you got that storm surge damage early 02:32:32.300 --> 02:32:37.000 It kind of opens up flexibility be able to focus on the rotation instead of just getting damage 02:32:39.740 --> 02:32:41.600 Yeah talk about those eliminations too 02:32:41.600 --> 02:32:46.340 I'm gonna be keeping close eyes on visuals and breeds too because like you said that is such a 02:32:46.340 --> 02:32:50.020 massive risk for them to take here waiting inside the base hoping to ambush 02:32:50.020 --> 02:32:53.960 someone and then you look at the map look at how much these stints there is 02:32:53.960 --> 02:33:00.380 between other players it and from here looking at it might not pay off we'll 02:33:00.380 --> 02:33:04.540 just have to see Peterbott boy are they'll back to the same trusty strategy 02:33:04.540 --> 02:33:09.660 keeping this huge surge tower this just seems to work out a lot better for 02:33:09.660 --> 02:33:13.660 them and then pushing things that they spent a weekend on the way 02:33:13.660 --> 02:33:17.540 There's an aiders one of the tree down here at the Dark Dominion, so we saw them rotate past this. 02:33:17.940 --> 02:33:21.500 Didn't go around to actually contest full to wrap the course. 02:33:23.140 --> 02:33:25.500 Shots coming in from Peterbot's duo at top. 02:33:29.860 --> 02:33:32.260 Yeah, they spotted that one out quick. Saw the surge phase. 02:33:32.500 --> 02:33:38.020 Saw the window open. Unlike some of the other surf faces where there is no top on their face, 02:33:38.300 --> 02:33:42.820 you can kind of, you know, crouch, uncrouch, peek over, not really give yourself away. 02:33:42.820 --> 02:33:48.380 But Peterbot built it in a way to where it's impossible to get shockwaved on for free 02:33:48.380 --> 02:33:52.180 So usually we always talk about Peterbot and foil hunting teams down 02:33:52.180 --> 02:33:57.740 I'm getting in the back of my head. Maybe they're prepared if worse comes to worse that happens to them 02:33:57.740 --> 02:34:00.580 They are the team to beat after eight games so far 02:34:01.260 --> 02:34:04.760 I should say nine games for here in game 10. Let's see if that lead goes away 02:34:05.940 --> 02:34:10.140 Muzz and Sphinx over towards Humble Hills zone moving on over towards squibbley short 02:34:10.140 --> 02:34:13.640 You talked about last time Clicks and Higgs had his own move over in this favor 02:34:13.640 --> 02:34:15.940 I think everybody here on this side of the map 02:34:15.940 --> 02:34:20.460 It's just been gifted a little bit of opportunity which includes Muzz and Sphinx who's currently position 8th on the leaderboard 02:34:20.740 --> 02:34:24.540 I'm really good today too second place in that first game 12th in the Nintendo 02:34:25.700 --> 02:34:27.700 lot of in-game 02:34:27.700 --> 02:34:29.700 appearances so far for Muzz and Sphinx 02:34:31.180 --> 02:34:33.180 Bucky and Zen 02:34:34.020 --> 02:34:36.020 Pace right now great opportunity 02:34:36.020 --> 02:34:43.020 The zone is going to be coming in shortly so I'm going to make quick work of this team 02:34:43.020 --> 02:34:51.060 here and get going themselves. 02:34:51.060 --> 02:34:55.220 You know watching this sometimes is going to have a lot of patience because there's a 02:34:55.220 --> 02:34:58.740 lot of moments to where you typically would think I got to rotate the zone, I don't want 02:34:58.740 --> 02:35:01.980 to take the damage, I want to beat other teams there but sometimes it's just more 02:35:01.980 --> 02:35:06.860 beneficial. First you'd be off the white HP heals to go ahead and survive through your 02:35:06.860 --> 02:35:11.300 time, let the storm do its thing, force other players at their hands depending on what situation 02:35:11.300 --> 02:35:16.300 they're in. You have a little bit more control of your games, curve and bento. A different 02:35:16.300 --> 02:35:19.900 approach already, you know in the last couple of games you see them very very early on 02:35:19.900 --> 02:35:23.340 trying to be the team on the high ground and really condition the rest of the lobby. 02:35:23.340 --> 02:35:28.460 This time around just like we saw visuals and raids taking a whole different approach. 02:35:28.460 --> 02:35:32.460 and just minimizing the risk of them actually getting eliminated. 02:35:32.460 --> 02:35:35.460 They do already have two eliminations, do some. 02:35:35.460 --> 02:35:38.460 They're feeling pretty good about their overall damage, 02:35:38.460 --> 02:35:41.460 but as we start talking about the way this zone played out, 02:35:41.460 --> 02:35:43.460 it's going to be clicks and hags. 02:35:43.460 --> 02:35:46.460 You have this monstrous base set up here at the wonky land, 02:35:46.460 --> 02:35:48.460 as the zone has... 02:35:48.460 --> 02:35:50.460 ...stayed them for quite some time here. 02:35:50.460 --> 02:35:53.460 I mean, it's plenty of extra kills to work with as well, 02:35:53.460 --> 02:35:57.460 so he's going to have to pick and choose here what they want to take on the road with them. 02:35:57.460 --> 02:36:07.460 Plenty of time to wait, the zone is pulling towards the south, they have their wonky wheel, 02:36:07.460 --> 02:36:10.780 they have their combination of both the fizz and the shockwave. 02:36:10.780 --> 02:36:15.620 So really dodge a lot of the teams, the earlier portions of that zone, kind of move out of 02:36:15.620 --> 02:36:19.420 render distance, make it easier for them to move in, and you see the zone is kind 02:36:19.420 --> 02:36:24.900 of pulling off the shores of Squibbly over into more of the mainland, and this 02:36:24.900 --> 02:36:28.740 This is where you do have a few different mountain ranges that will be in play. 02:36:28.740 --> 02:36:32.260 It's a rotation, it's being quick, that is of the essence here. 02:36:32.260 --> 02:36:36.180 That's where you see now for all those other players that are waiting to have this zone 02:36:36.180 --> 02:36:37.580 to try to move their way in. 02:36:37.580 --> 02:36:40.300 You're seeing cold and rapid, they're pulling that edge of the zone. 02:36:40.300 --> 02:36:44.420 Instead of straight, going straight in, they know this side of the map is more than 02:36:44.420 --> 02:36:47.660 likely uninhabited by a lot of the players, so they're just going ahead, taking the 02:36:47.660 --> 02:36:49.540 slow approach yet again. 02:36:49.540 --> 02:36:52.660 They don't seem to be in a worry and they don't seem to be desperate to make 02:36:52.660 --> 02:36:53.660 any big plays. 02:36:53.660 --> 02:36:59.660 And they got little bushes to play with as well here. So with the zone coming back, they have a nice little ambush set up there. 02:36:59.660 --> 02:37:01.660 All the teams rotating in. 02:37:01.660 --> 02:37:08.260 Peterbot still finds himself safe in the positioning here. So long as they found their damage, they'll be just fine. 02:37:08.260 --> 02:37:15.060 Ragers and Rich will have it really moved either since rotating their last position here. 02:37:15.060 --> 02:37:21.860 They're only 83 above, so this is a much more precarious situation at the end. 02:37:21.860 --> 02:37:26.100 It might look good. It might look good now with the damage being above the threshold, 02:37:26.100 --> 02:37:28.500 but you know as well as I do the way that some of these games have been going. 02:37:28.500 --> 02:37:32.980 You'll be a pub in one zone, and then instantly fall below in the next. 02:37:33.860 --> 02:37:37.780 We need to get down to a certain minimum of players for each and every one of these zones 02:37:37.780 --> 02:37:43.140 that the team does progress into it. Eventually it does turn off down to 40 players overall, 02:37:43.140 --> 02:37:47.380 so they're really playing tiptoeing with that line when it comes to surge, 02:37:47.380 --> 02:37:53.660 Cold and rapid similar situation, only 143 above, and it's not easy for them to rotate from point A to point B. 02:37:53.660 --> 02:37:56.660 About 30 damage is going to get taken off that surge. 02:37:56.660 --> 02:38:03.300 One thing to note though, they were maxed material coming out of that storm there, so they are in the prime position here. 02:38:03.300 --> 02:38:05.520 Don't let that material count fool you. 02:38:05.520 --> 02:38:11.840 They are getting late into the endgame here, a little bit of storm, full luck here, and you'll be in a great spot to be in. 02:38:11.840 --> 02:38:14.620 Overall though, Peterbot and Playa could seem to be separate of them. 02:38:14.620 --> 02:38:17.180 They have this high ground base. They've had to zone this entire time. 02:38:17.180 --> 02:38:21.140 They're finding a tremendous amount of damage from this advantageous spot. 02:38:21.140 --> 02:38:24.780 And now they get to shockwave out and play into the Dark Dominion. 02:38:24.780 --> 02:38:27.100 So this is actually called a rapid-draw spot. 02:38:27.100 --> 02:38:30.780 And again, normally when you get the draw, obviously, we've seen those teams 02:38:30.780 --> 02:38:35.500 turn these opportunities, if you will, into huge wins, if not better. 02:38:37.860 --> 02:38:42.340 And again, that is to be determined as now we're starting to first end game. 02:38:42.340 --> 02:38:44.740 Then on curve, no pressure so far. 02:38:44.740 --> 02:38:46.140 They've just been sitting on the bending machine, 02:38:46.140 --> 02:38:47.940 trying to see if anyone was willing to come this way. 02:38:47.940 --> 02:38:50.900 Clearly, some people got a little too close to the fire 02:38:50.900 --> 02:38:51.940 and got burned here. 02:38:51.940 --> 02:38:53.860 It's magma in G-Monster. 02:38:53.860 --> 02:38:56.680 This is another Ben-No and curve elimination 02:38:56.680 --> 02:38:57.540 off the same team. 02:38:57.540 --> 02:38:59.220 They just can't catch the first one. 02:38:59.220 --> 02:39:01.020 Yeah, and I know the game's still going on, 02:39:01.020 --> 02:39:03.340 but with those eliminations there, 02:39:03.340 --> 02:39:06.420 they take first place in the tournament. 02:39:06.420 --> 02:39:07.820 Place of points happens so close. 02:39:07.820 --> 02:39:09.380 And it's going to continue to jumble, 02:39:09.380 --> 02:39:12.320 but it goes to show how close the leaderboard actually 02:39:12.320 --> 02:39:16.760 is through and through my my watching a replay of my watching another computer 02:39:16.760 --> 02:39:21.320 bomb player just finding opportunity after opportunity and it's on to beer 02:39:21.320 --> 02:39:26.000 that is going to be a heartbreak right there if threats cannot clutch out some 02:39:26.000 --> 02:39:31.680 good points in this game he has only four points away from that bubble yeah 02:39:31.680 --> 02:39:39.320 they were doing so well after finding those two e-lands and he has to make 02:39:39.320 --> 02:39:45.240 At least 20 or 30 points as you're jumping away. I think I saw Venno find another elimination there too 02:39:45.240 --> 02:39:48.580 So the rotates are clearly looking well. Yep. Here it is. We get some jumping with that 02:39:48.580 --> 02:39:53.680 They're at five elims now Jacob things are just starting to get really pieced together for them 02:39:53.680 --> 02:39:57.640 Take a look here. They find the lobby focus onto Jack. They get the elim credit 02:39:57.640 --> 02:40:00.360 It just can't work any better for them now 02:40:00.960 --> 02:40:05.720 So all that matters here for them is just gonna be key positioning playing for the endgame 02:40:05.720 --> 02:40:07.720 No one's in that base up top either 02:40:07.720 --> 02:40:11.560 Somewhat of a vacant storm surge base from before. 02:40:11.560 --> 02:40:12.400 He's on his mouth back. 02:40:12.400 --> 02:40:14.760 Acorn and Volts are still in this game as well right now. 02:40:14.760 --> 02:40:15.800 Barely holding on to us. 02:40:15.800 --> 02:40:17.400 They found themselves only 20 of all. 02:40:17.400 --> 02:40:19.440 I see clips and haze there in the distance too. 02:40:19.440 --> 02:40:22.960 Meanwhile, Yiderbaugh continuing to find eliminations. 02:40:22.960 --> 02:40:24.600 Yeah, to start the game, Venom and Kerbs, 02:40:24.600 --> 02:40:26.520 two off-spawn Elims, put them in first. 02:40:26.520 --> 02:40:27.720 Yiderbaugh gets Elim. 02:40:27.720 --> 02:40:29.040 They take first back. 02:40:29.040 --> 02:40:31.560 Venom and Kerb get a couple more Elims. 02:40:31.560 --> 02:40:33.000 That pushes them in first. 02:40:33.000 --> 02:40:34.960 And now they take it right back. 02:40:34.960 --> 02:40:36.200 We're literally ping ponging. 02:40:36.200 --> 02:40:39.240 As this game goes on between first and second place, 02:40:39.240 --> 02:40:41.680 we still got cold, rapid, ages and rituals. 02:40:41.680 --> 02:40:43.840 Eight-point impulse, all still in the mix. 02:40:43.840 --> 02:40:45.600 You can't forget about clicks and hicks. 02:40:45.600 --> 02:40:48.280 All it takes is one moment to catch fire 02:40:48.280 --> 02:40:49.680 in these next three games 02:40:49.680 --> 02:40:52.560 to really kind of shut everything up. 02:40:53.400 --> 02:40:55.240 They do have that gold chaos. 02:40:55.240 --> 02:40:56.800 They got the purple APR. 02:40:56.800 --> 02:40:58.280 They got slap pizza. 02:40:58.280 --> 02:40:59.120 They got fizz. 02:40:59.120 --> 02:40:59.960 They got shockwave. 02:40:59.960 --> 02:41:02.120 They got all the resources necessary 02:41:02.120 --> 02:41:03.760 to have a good game here, 02:41:03.760 --> 02:41:05.680 but this zone might play a huge role 02:41:05.680 --> 02:41:06.840 depending on where it goes. 02:41:06.840 --> 02:41:08.120 I see it moving towards the south. 02:41:08.120 --> 02:41:10.760 We're going back in and through Darkville Minion. 02:41:10.760 --> 02:41:12.080 So even though we got those buildings, 02:41:12.080 --> 02:41:12.920 we need to worry about it. 02:41:12.920 --> 02:41:14.960 It's not as drastic as a North Pole 02:41:14.960 --> 02:41:16.360 and all those mountain ranges. 02:41:16.360 --> 02:41:18.920 Jacob, I also saw visual embrace though live as well. 02:41:18.920 --> 02:41:21.880 So it seems like their risky play did pay off there. 02:41:21.880 --> 02:41:23.880 And the bottom right there is still fully healthy. 02:41:23.880 --> 02:41:25.880 Clicks and Higgs often to go for high ground here. 02:41:25.880 --> 02:41:29.160 Once again, this time as early as the eighth, 02:41:29.160 --> 02:41:32.520 so wild teams are playing pretty close to second height. 02:41:32.520 --> 02:41:34.840 This is extremely risky. 02:41:34.840 --> 02:41:41.040 Javi in a ministerial in the game as well, but Klakes with the big Elimons enough there, he doesn't get too risky either, right? 02:41:41.040 --> 02:41:43.040 He allows the move to fall there. 02:41:43.040 --> 02:41:45.240 Comes to back up his teammate Hicks here up top. 02:41:45.240 --> 02:41:48.040 It's Bucky and Zen who are trying to fight for it though. 02:41:48.040 --> 02:41:51.640 Yeah, and this is another reason why I think it's just a little bit too early sometimes in the game. 02:41:51.640 --> 02:41:56.040 Oh, Foyo's down only because of the material, but it's because everybody's sending it up above. 02:41:56.040 --> 02:41:58.840 He sends it to himself. Foyo's down. That is a lot of pressure here. 02:41:58.840 --> 02:42:01.840 On to Peterbott to maintain their position on the leaderboard. 02:42:01.840 --> 02:42:04.280 Quickly peeks up, steals some of that move away. 02:42:04.280 --> 02:42:06.640 Curve and Venom are on the other side, 02:42:06.640 --> 02:42:09.440 literally first in play, staring at each other through the wall. 02:42:09.440 --> 02:42:12.200 I think Peterbot knows that danger's around the corner, 02:42:12.200 --> 02:42:13.080 tries to go up. 02:42:13.080 --> 02:42:14.400 Shockwave of my pick. 02:42:14.400 --> 02:42:16.480 Stop play onto Zen. 02:42:16.480 --> 02:42:19.920 Nobody, nobody does that as a solo. 02:42:19.920 --> 02:42:21.960 He's even backing down Bucky. 02:42:21.960 --> 02:42:23.560 They have the confidence to go up. 02:42:23.560 --> 02:42:24.920 The challenge clicks and Higgs, 02:42:24.920 --> 02:42:28.080 but now it's falling short with Peterbot storming him down. 02:42:28.080 --> 02:42:29.080 Just doesn't get better, you know? 02:42:29.080 --> 02:42:30.640 He's just sticking to the game plan. 02:42:30.640 --> 02:42:35.640 He's like you know what we want to come into these games and play for a high ground. It's what's gonna open up positioning for me 02:42:35.640 --> 02:42:40.240 I'm just gonna go ahead and do that but clicks and hicks of course have the same strategy to 02:42:40.540 --> 02:42:46.880 Your box rise to bill off of course, but it's not gonna be enough clicks has just got his number this time 02:42:47.080 --> 02:42:53.240 This is an opening curve and Benno needed bolt is by himself down below eight Gordon 02:42:54.240 --> 02:43:00.600 Another talk he's sent back to the lobby not only curve and Benno's chance to increase that lead for first 02:43:00.640 --> 02:43:04.660 plays even with cold rapids to live up for clicks and Higgs to play catch up here 02:43:04.660 --> 02:43:08.040 They have the high ground a lot of the teams are already out of their path 02:43:08.040 --> 02:43:13.740 But another one sends it towards the north another team is trying to battle up above for the high ground meanwhile 02:43:13.840 --> 02:43:17.740 Cold and rapid has let all the dust settle you guys can have it up above 02:43:17.740 --> 02:43:23.160 We'll smoothly walk through that finish line. Don't forget hobby and a minish were in sixth place coming into this 02:43:23.160 --> 02:43:25.360 They have a chance to fight for first as well 02:43:25.360 --> 02:43:28.860 And they're trying to just show us that they have life in them as they go up 02:43:28.860 --> 02:43:32.300 but Klicks and Higgs will in a battle it back on over into their head. 02:43:32.300 --> 02:43:34.740 They're really just wrestling for high ground right now, 02:43:34.740 --> 02:43:37.060 and it's cost them so much material. 02:43:37.060 --> 02:43:40.780 Klicks and Higgs have almost given away the win condition at this point 02:43:40.780 --> 02:43:42.700 if they can't catch this refrag. 02:43:42.700 --> 02:43:46.060 Yeah, you see Curve and Venom just waiting in the shadows. 02:43:46.060 --> 02:43:48.460 So, a spur of moment just like this. 02:43:48.460 --> 02:43:50.020 Everything up above is expended, 02:43:50.020 --> 02:43:51.380 but they're actually looking down below 02:43:51.380 --> 02:43:53.380 because the material count, the lack of resources. 02:43:53.380 --> 02:43:56.100 They might have what they need to take the high ground, 02:43:56.100 --> 02:43:57.500 so Klicks and Higgs have to give it up. 02:43:57.500 --> 02:44:02.000 Hoppy in a minute. You set it yourself from top six to start this game. 02:44:02.000 --> 02:44:05.440 This is our chance to increase their positioning, but Venom backs up against the wall. 02:44:05.440 --> 02:44:09.320 Six builds, tries to find his way to the frontside zone while using the bare minimum. 02:44:09.320 --> 02:44:12.120 Curve ends up in a scuffle against Klicks. No builds left. 02:44:12.120 --> 02:44:15.040 He's going to have to reposition and now Klicks is by himself. 02:44:15.040 --> 02:44:17.460 Two HP, a quick peek from Venom. 02:44:17.460 --> 02:44:20.960 He returns back to the scene of the grind to take down his former teammate. 02:44:20.960 --> 02:44:22.700 Unfortunately, he did lose Curve in the process. 02:44:22.700 --> 02:44:25.540 He finds Prommier as a solo, but no nut comes to back him up, 02:44:25.540 --> 02:44:28.300 and then he has to back off here completely. 02:44:28.300 --> 02:44:31.220 Look at this, Venom didn't even get to pick up any of Max either. 02:44:31.220 --> 02:44:32.700 So now he's down to four bills. 02:44:32.700 --> 02:44:34.860 But hey, look, inside the top 10 now, 02:44:34.860 --> 02:44:37.700 still earning points, but you have Colvin Rapid making up 02:44:37.700 --> 02:44:40.060 for time loss, but Venom's still going. 02:44:40.060 --> 02:44:41.820 Down goes Taki too. 02:44:41.820 --> 02:44:44.820 And now he's at nine eliminations here, Jacob. 02:44:44.820 --> 02:44:48.100 This is a legacy at its finest. 02:44:48.100 --> 02:44:50.500 And Venom is really trying to put on, not only for himself, 02:44:50.500 --> 02:44:53.260 not only for Curve with entire EU region, 02:44:53.260 --> 02:44:55.540 and say, hey, look, it could be that easy. 02:44:55.540 --> 02:44:59.060 Cold and rapid though, still a big pain in their side, 02:44:59.060 --> 02:45:00.660 but rapid goes down. 02:45:00.660 --> 02:45:03.220 Muzz and Sphinx drop down from above. 02:45:03.220 --> 02:45:06.140 This is literally chaos at its finest. 02:45:06.140 --> 02:45:07.060 This is crazy. 02:45:07.060 --> 02:45:08.660 The points here being added up, 02:45:08.660 --> 02:45:11.580 meanwhile, Venom's just soaking up placement points 02:45:11.580 --> 02:45:13.820 because the lobby's doing the hard work for him, 02:45:13.820 --> 02:45:16.740 and he goes for the monster shot! 02:45:16.740 --> 02:45:18.500 Onto ritual! 02:45:18.500 --> 02:45:20.460 Oh my gosh! 02:45:20.460 --> 02:45:22.540 Venom just continues to do it. 02:45:22.540 --> 02:45:24.100 Time and time again! 02:45:24.100 --> 02:45:25.980 Don't count him out just yet! 02:45:25.980 --> 02:45:27.180 That's another huge shot. 02:45:27.180 --> 02:45:28.660 The full beardiness drops too. 02:45:28.660 --> 02:45:29.900 Can he get some time to pop it? 02:45:29.900 --> 02:45:31.020 There it is. 02:45:31.020 --> 02:45:32.180 Tries to break out through the top. 02:45:32.180 --> 02:45:33.820 Look at the game since the awareness 02:45:33.820 --> 02:45:35.700 to break out of the dangerous layer. 02:45:35.700 --> 02:45:38.420 Venom is firing on all cylinders right now 02:45:38.420 --> 02:45:40.100 and he is still going. 02:45:40.100 --> 02:45:42.740 I can't believe what we're witnessing, 02:45:42.740 --> 02:45:46.100 Venom is taking over in this end game, 02:45:46.100 --> 02:45:47.740 but he has to be careful. 02:45:47.740 --> 02:45:49.100 The only solo left, 02:45:49.100 --> 02:45:52.180 Oh, I'm finished on the other side. 02:45:52.180 --> 02:45:57.460 And you charge 35, a minute goes down into 2v1 monster. 02:45:57.460 --> 02:45:59.380 How is he still doing it? 02:45:59.380 --> 02:46:01.860 How is he managing to earn these points? 02:46:01.860 --> 02:46:03.540 He's trying to get it back in blood. 02:46:03.540 --> 02:46:06.220 He might actually get this elimination here, too. 02:46:06.220 --> 02:46:08.780 Zip the falls down, voids all weak. 02:46:08.780 --> 02:46:11.140 And he gave us the performance. 02:46:11.140 --> 02:46:14.340 We were looking for their Jacob. 02:46:14.340 --> 02:46:14.980 I had. 02:46:14.980 --> 02:46:15.660 Gosh. 02:46:15.660 --> 02:46:16.940 Oh my gosh, Bonsai. 02:46:16.940 --> 02:46:20.420 I needed a moment to breathe there.

I mean and that is a solo clutch off of curve and 02:52:15.640 --> 02:52:19.960 then oh having a eliminations before curve went down so it wasn't like it was 02:52:19.960 --> 02:52:24.640 just been oh in that game but regardless even with a eliminations having 02:52:24.640 --> 02:52:31.040 curve go down. Vinno was not done yet. He is never done vivid and to see him play that 02:52:31.040 --> 02:52:36.000 I for a second I thought this was game 11 Peterbott solo once again because we've seen 02:52:36.000 --> 02:52:41.600 that in North America but Vinno wants to show that this is not just the NA show. EU is 02:52:41.600 --> 02:52:49.240 here to represent and these eliminations vivid insane. I mean it's like you can't 02:52:49.240 --> 02:52:53.920 miss right now.

I mean he is just switching layers when he needs to. He's using the overdrive 02:53:05.200 --> 02:53:09.120 grenades to fly up and even mid-air opponents are moving. He's still hitting the shots and 02:53:09.920 --> 02:53:14.320 everybody that was watching this must have believed that it was possible for him to win this 1v2, 02:53:14.320 --> 02:53:18.080 right?

There's only 02:56:04.120 --> 02:56:09.560 two games left. We are approaching that point now where it is possible that some of these other 02:56:09.560 --> 02:56:12.840 teams that are in the top five could potentially be thinking about, okay, listen, they're playing 02:56:12.840 --> 02:56:17.560 way too good right now. How do we stop them? I know we kind of, we kind of talk about this 02:56:17.560 --> 02:56:23.640 a lot. We saw it on you earlier, the attempt to potentially stop them early on. Does somebody 02:56:23.640 --> 02:56:31.400 have what it takes to land on Curve and Venno to stop what seems to be unstoppable? Whoa! 02:56:32.680 --> 02:56:39.160 He's speaking something into existence. Kelly, we saw this over in EU and it went a certain way. 02:56:39.160 --> 02:56:42.040 Do you think it's happening? Do you think it's happening in Game 11? No. 02:56:44.040 --> 02:56:45.480 Probably not. Well, we can hope. 02:56:47.560 --> 02:56:52.440 Two games left to go here before we say goodbye. 02:56:52.440 --> 02:56:55.920 I cannot believe what has transpired so far. 02:56:55.920 --> 02:56:57.480 The two games left to go. 02:56:57.480 --> 02:57:00.440 All of these dudes are thinking the same exact thing. 02:57:00.440 --> 02:57:02.360 How do we either get in the top 13 02:57:02.360 --> 02:57:05.640 or fight for that number one spot? 02:57:05.640 --> 02:57:07.360 Castors, it is time. 02:57:07.360 --> 02:57:09.600 Game 11 is ready. 02:57:09.600 --> 02:57:10.440 Take it away. 02:57:12.120 --> 02:57:14.920 Monster, I don't know if Curvin' Venom 02:57:14.920 --> 02:57:16.240 will be contested off-drop, 02:57:16.240 --> 02:57:23.240 I don't think it's going to be a smart play because something you notice first off is when they were the best team in some of these lobbies 02:57:23.240 --> 02:57:26.000 It usually starts in the early game on day one 02:57:26.000 --> 02:57:31.520 It was the mid and end game where they lacked a little bit of preparation, but now that that's solved. I'm not sure 02:57:31.960 --> 02:57:36.720 Yeah, I don't think everyone wants to get sky and scrolled here in game number 11 02:57:36.720 --> 02:57:39.040 So let's see if things are getting hype now 02:57:39.040 --> 02:57:50.040 the game. Now. Two games left 02:57:50.040 --> 02:57:52.040 monster to exciting chances 02:57:52.040 --> 02:57:54.040 for anybody to rise up the 02:57:54.040 --> 02:57:56.040 leaderboards and before this 02:57:56.040 --> 02:57:57.040 moment, we had a very, very 02:57:57.040 --> 02:57:59.040 close tournament six points 02:57:59.040 --> 02:58:01.040 difference, but after curve 02:58:01.040 --> 02:58:03.040 and Venom and Venom is just 02:58:03.040 --> 02:58:06.040 phenomenal solo play. They 02:58:06.040 --> 02:58:08.040 have almost a 50 point gap. 02:58:08.040 --> 02:58:12.480 speak he was actually saying curve was due for the pop-up curve is gonna have 02:58:12.480 --> 02:58:18.540 this moment little did we know the wolf was in sheep's clothing he has been 02:58:18.540 --> 02:58:24.280 playing so crazy it's looking like like young Venom the Venom that we knew to be 02:58:24.280 --> 02:58:27.820 one of the most dangerous fighters when he was up and coming we're just seeing 02:58:27.820 --> 02:58:31.040 them just outperform like a breeze right now and you love to see it too 02:58:31.040 --> 02:58:36.120 because it's well deserved and the competition overall is extremely close 02:58:36.120 --> 02:58:39.120 But okay, Jacob, let's get to some of this action here. 02:58:39.120 --> 02:58:43.520 Paper and Rezzi are still fighting for a qualification spot for themselves. 02:58:43.520 --> 02:58:45.320 That was a great two-piece of them. 02:58:45.320 --> 02:58:46.420 Yeah, it's just unfortunate. 02:58:46.420 --> 02:58:48.520 That side of the map isn't necessarily my favorite, 02:58:48.520 --> 02:58:50.520 whether you're contested, uncontested, 02:58:50.520 --> 02:58:51.820 or simply just win the fight. 02:58:51.820 --> 02:58:53.220 It doesn't make it any easier at all. 02:58:53.220 --> 02:58:54.720 Lake Preston's still on this side of the map. 02:58:54.720 --> 02:58:55.520 Don't get to the tick. 02:58:55.520 --> 02:58:58.420 And Mafia on the south side of the Frigid Fortress. 02:58:58.420 --> 02:58:59.720 Good damage on the Preston, though, 02:58:59.720 --> 02:59:01.720 giving a huge advantage on over to the other side. 02:59:01.720 --> 02:59:04.720 But Mafia, a huge chunk of HP missing as well. 02:59:04.720 --> 02:59:13.220 This is where the Lurks are starting to come in, but the longer you lurk, the longer you fight, those third parties will become a huge factor, and Pen and Jack already making their way on over. 02:59:13.220 --> 02:59:19.220 Yeah, Pen and Jack have been all over these fights here. They've had success, they've had some failures. 02:59:21.220 --> 02:59:26.720 So, as Mafia, I'm looking for a place to protect it. Just trying to get this one out, can you see? 02:59:26.720 --> 02:59:33.720 This is the most important shot though, any little touch there. You could have seized on the tick and it would have been a big up. 02:59:33.720 --> 02:59:40.200 And Preston didn't even see him run past Ryder, so they just seem to be a little out of it here for game number 11. 02:59:40.200 --> 02:59:44.000 And Pen and Jack, not too content with the extra shots they're hitting inside of there. 02:59:44.000 --> 02:59:48.120 I think they learned a lesson last time. They're off to disengage now. 02:59:51.120 --> 02:59:55.440 You still got Skaern, Ocid at the actual Frigid Fortress just towards the north. 02:59:55.440 --> 02:59:59.920 They were the ones that, essentially the last one standing after everything had settled, 02:59:59.920 --> 03:00:01.960 but literally one room away, Preston. 03:00:01.960 --> 03:00:05.800 And like, I have to imagine they know each other are here. 03:00:05.800 --> 03:00:07.400 Even the tick as a solo, 03:00:07.400 --> 03:00:09.240 they only saw one elimination in the feed. 03:00:09.240 --> 03:00:10.560 It's about where is he at. 03:00:10.560 --> 03:00:12.880 And every single person in this scenario monster 03:00:12.880 --> 03:00:16.680 is one shot away from going down or getting eliminated. 03:00:16.680 --> 03:00:18.440 And that's why you see the careful approach, 03:00:18.440 --> 03:00:20.000 but maybe Preston hears something 03:00:20.000 --> 03:00:21.200 on the other side of that wall. 03:00:21.200 --> 03:00:22.960 He's trying to tiptoe, take his time. 03:00:22.960 --> 03:00:25.480 There's a full window open, a clear shot. 03:00:25.480 --> 03:00:27.520 Big double attack from both sides. 03:00:27.520 --> 03:00:28.880 That was actually a smart way 03:00:28.880 --> 03:00:33.360 approach that from Preston and Blake. I'm thinking Preston was looking through the cracks in the brick 03:00:33.360 --> 03:00:39.840 like yep I see an angle bro he's in here let's go for it. It ends up working out squibbly. 03:00:40.400 --> 03:00:44.880 I'll lock it close by through the bottom foil. Let's see if they end up doing a big surge base 03:00:44.880 --> 03:00:51.120 or rotating out early. Try to get a fight for some surge maybe even some points of course. 03:00:52.560 --> 03:00:56.960 All in all though oh they're going back to that strat where they just push 03:00:56.960 --> 03:01:00.640 And honestly, unless you think something 03:01:00.640 --> 03:01:03.800 unordinary is going to happen with Venno going down early and a lack of 03:01:03.800 --> 03:01:07.000 eliminations, one of the big ways to come back is especially for a team like 03:01:07.000 --> 03:01:10.960 Wibbop, the foil is through eliminations here, talk about it yourself, they 03:01:10.960 --> 03:01:14.120 fought this one before against Kristen Drew, they got an elimination, but they've 03:01:14.120 --> 03:01:18.600 also went down or down to low HP, making this search not necessarily worth 03:01:18.600 --> 03:01:22.000 it, there goes another example, they're a hundred damage gone just like 03:01:22.000 --> 03:01:26.080 that, the foil has to stay on the ground, and they're going to 03:01:26.080 --> 03:01:31.300 Boy will have to slow things down trying to heal up a Peterbott for a necklace pressure gets the double-edged sword at the top 03:01:31.300 --> 03:01:39.200 Or she drew to fall down yet another layer, but we've seen this happen a few times throughout the weekend offensive Peterbott and boy 03:01:39.200 --> 03:01:42.380 Oh do disengage, but I'm not sure that's gonna necessarily be the case 03:01:42.380 --> 03:01:46.080 They trade shots again another hundred damage landing on the P 03:01:46.400 --> 03:01:52.740 Yeah, one thing person drew done is played defense very very well like every time we've watched this fight go down 03:01:52.740 --> 03:01:55.500 They actually haven't fully eliminated this team. 03:01:55.500 --> 03:01:58.580 They have managed to defend themselves more than well enough. 03:01:58.580 --> 03:02:01.100 And Peterbot and Boyo say, you know what? 03:02:01.100 --> 03:02:02.100 Yeah, I got it, bro. 03:02:02.100 --> 03:02:04.380 Once again, and they just give it to them, 03:02:04.380 --> 03:02:07.100 because they know too that going back and forth 03:02:07.100 --> 03:02:08.180 is not worth it. 03:02:08.180 --> 03:02:10.180 They wait until they're ahead, and they say, all right, 03:02:10.180 --> 03:02:14.500 we're going to take the serve positive and dip out. 03:02:14.500 --> 03:02:17.340 Time to go take the little victories. 03:02:17.340 --> 03:02:19.180 Hopefully they accumulate into a massive victory 03:02:19.180 --> 03:02:20.700 at the end of the game. 03:02:20.700 --> 03:02:25.420 jump on board threats and beer to start the day off they were inside of that top 13 03:02:25.420 --> 03:02:32.460 they slowly fizzled out but as it stands now 14 plays 264 points 13 place only six 03:02:32.460 --> 03:02:35.380 points away so if they were able to clean up those eliminations they would move 03:02:35.380 --> 03:02:39.380 inside of the bubble as the game does progress one side of the map you can kind 03:02:39.380 --> 03:02:42.500 of see what is on the line for some of these players and they really just 03:02:42.500 --> 03:02:46.300 trying to put it all out there and they leave no regrets left on the table 03:02:46.300 --> 03:02:52.300 Corillian seems to be by himself, not sure where Jarvan's at, possibly eliminated by Qtay, but they break into the same box. 03:02:52.300 --> 03:02:58.300 Qtay almost goes down, but he's able to not only survive, but get the elimination onto Corillian and basically tell him what he really feels. 03:02:58.300 --> 03:03:04.300 Yeah, I was trying to find Corillian on the standings. Definitely is one of those teams on that bubble area. 03:03:04.300 --> 03:03:13.300 They haven't had enough time really focusing on their performances, but either way getting eliminated now in game number 11's and being a massive setback for any team here and now. 03:03:13.300 --> 03:03:15.300 Jumping back to this right here, Peterbot. 03:03:15.300 --> 03:03:18.300 Boy, I don't think we've seen them actually fight Skittles' team at all. 03:03:18.300 --> 03:03:20.300 So Skittles... 03:03:20.300 --> 03:03:23.300 Taught out of position here and into the drop. 03:03:23.300 --> 03:03:25.300 Okay, this is exactly where Peterbot wants to. 03:03:25.300 --> 03:03:29.300 They know they're not going to have teams here, not this early. 03:03:29.300 --> 03:03:34.300 Just like that Skittles rotates out of one problem and into another one. 03:03:34.300 --> 03:03:36.300 That's just a... 03:03:36.300 --> 03:03:39.300 Literally Peterbot and Boyo went from finding Chris and Drew. 03:03:39.300 --> 03:03:41.300 I don't know why they disengaged. 03:03:41.300 --> 03:03:47.060 Christian drew wet one way Peter pop like the other and basically attacked two different players on one team 03:03:47.060 --> 03:03:50.320 Sent them right back to the lobby another heartbreak moment here in game 11 03:03:50.660 --> 03:03:56.260 Basically leaving it all to the 12th and final game for some of these teams have been eliminated early on 03:03:56.660 --> 03:04:03.220 And as you can see 74 players up monster this one looking to move at a little bit of an accelerated fashion than some of the other games 03:04:03.220 --> 03:04:04.820 We've seen so far 03:04:04.820 --> 03:04:13.240 Okay, I did find Carillion and Jargle on the status. They're actually in 13th holding the line with 270 03:04:13.660 --> 03:04:18.100 Points there Jacob now the jump above them is re and Cooper who have a 30 03:04:18.500 --> 03:04:25.280 Point cushion it seems like for 12th, but it is super close from basically that line up and down 03:04:28.460 --> 03:04:33.260 Teams below you probably even some of the teams above just hoping they go down early 03:04:33.260 --> 03:04:40.440 kind of ease the pain, but you can see the big difference here from wrapping cold and some of the other teams wrap it literally buying out the 03:04:40.440 --> 03:04:43.820 Mending machine and then they kind of bring all the heels up towards cold 03:04:43.940 --> 03:04:50.540 So you can kind of watch them kind of leaving scraps essentially for anybody else that tries to rotate through and grab that many machine 03:04:50.540 --> 03:04:54.260 Just jump on board boy. He's like he's getting chased down by a beam 03:04:54.540 --> 03:04:58.580 Now we're near his teammate just yet, but he's trying to use those shockwave to close the distance 03:04:58.580 --> 03:05:01.580 Just look at this points too. 03:05:01.580 --> 03:05:05.580 Overall today, having quite the performance here. 03:05:05.580 --> 03:05:08.580 Obviously after that splash, Victor Real in a fifth place before that, 03:05:08.580 --> 03:05:14.580 they've propelled themselves right into a potential land qualification spot. 03:05:14.580 --> 03:05:17.580 Now they still have a little bit of a ways to go, but if they can continue to play well, 03:05:17.580 --> 03:05:21.580 they will be up towards the top here in the next two rounds. 03:05:21.580 --> 03:05:25.580 Bizzards and braids slipping down the totem pole. 03:05:25.580 --> 03:05:29.280 They were holding at their strong were so long. 03:05:29.280 --> 03:05:32.380 These last few rounds have just been a bit tougher. 03:05:32.380 --> 03:05:40.280 Yeah, they have a bit of a cushion almost almost a hundred point cushion going into the last two games, but most leaves you scratch your head. 03:05:40.280 --> 03:05:46.880 They vastly changed up their strategy from day one going into day two where they were typically set up here for a long time. 03:05:46.880 --> 03:05:52.480 Just getting little tags that adds up to a good amount of surge by the time they rotated towards those moving zones. 03:05:52.480 --> 03:05:54.480 It made it look more free to do what they want. 03:05:55.580 --> 03:06:00.780 more and more teams rotating over even to close the day out yesterday lurking on them getting those 03:06:00.780 --> 03:06:05.980 limitations forcing in the back of visual the braids mind different things to go out they're 03:06:05.980 --> 03:06:10.220 going to go ahead and get that drop early on just at the edge of zone and this could be a blessing 03:06:10.220 --> 03:06:13.580 here with the zone moving towards the north they're already set up on one of these mountains 03:06:13.580 --> 03:06:18.780 and every team south of that line has to rotate either through visuals and braids or to the left 03:06:18.780 --> 03:06:23.340 or the right and this is definitely the better spot to be in and you know this is arguably the 03:06:23.340 --> 03:06:27.980 the best spot to have a monster surge face but they seem to have gone to keeping 03:06:27.980 --> 03:06:33.540 more of a low profile so trying to mix things up and if I had to guess teams 03:06:33.540 --> 03:06:38.540 just changed their rotation strategy right maybe that's why I disagree to 03:06:38.540 --> 03:06:41.580 have it a bit of a harder time whereas yesterday while everyone was caught up 03:06:41.580 --> 03:06:45.980 guard just that worked a little better but to beat about for you they're fighting 03:06:45.980 --> 03:06:49.980 for points here it's this good way towards obviously their domain you're 03:06:49.980 --> 03:06:51.980 They're doing a good job. 03:06:51.980 --> 03:06:54.980 Peterbot's using a couple of resources that are around. 03:06:54.980 --> 03:06:57.980 Taking that spicy fish, getting a little bit of a movement boost 03:06:57.980 --> 03:07:00.980 that can help him try to break into some of these boxes 03:07:00.980 --> 03:07:02.980 to pressure out musk from two different angles. 03:07:02.980 --> 03:07:04.980 One shot can connect from oil. 03:07:04.980 --> 03:07:05.980 Peterbot's still holding it down, 03:07:05.980 --> 03:07:08.980 leading some of those Thunderbirds shot through, 03:07:08.980 --> 03:07:10.980 getting him down to just HP. 03:07:10.980 --> 03:07:12.980 You don't hear, yeah, it might only be a one-tick, 03:07:12.980 --> 03:07:14.980 but it's going to increase the worry, poor musk. 03:07:14.980 --> 03:07:17.980 Liquid tries to go up and make a play onto beer bot, 03:07:17.980 --> 03:07:19.740 but he gets cut short as well. 03:07:19.740 --> 03:07:22.260 He has no choice but to try and disengage. 03:07:22.260 --> 03:07:24.900 He basically gave up any hope of him and his duo 03:07:24.900 --> 03:07:26.980 either taking down Peterbot or surviving. 03:07:26.980 --> 03:07:28.460 So he moves towards the north, 03:07:28.460 --> 03:07:29.780 saying, hey, if you're gonna live at him, 03:07:29.780 --> 03:07:31.100 I probably already have the goal. 03:07:31.100 --> 03:07:33.580 Let's just start working on Plan B. 03:07:33.580 --> 03:07:34.420 Yeah, look at that. 03:07:34.420 --> 03:07:36.060 And little did they know that he actually 03:07:36.060 --> 03:07:37.380 fully dipped on his teammate. 03:07:37.380 --> 03:07:40.220 So he could have stuck around and finished it, 03:07:40.220 --> 03:07:41.660 but not worth the risk. 03:07:41.660 --> 03:07:43.540 Really showing you too that, like, 03:07:43.540 --> 03:07:45.180 Peterbot and Foyle are really trying 03:07:45.180 --> 03:07:46.340 to play for an end game right now. 03:07:46.340 --> 03:07:49.780 They know that the points will come, we just got to keep winning. 03:07:53.540 --> 03:08:00.260 Muzz and Speaks, you know, Muzz, at least, you know, in the last major three in trios, 03:08:00.260 --> 03:08:06.020 qualifying in the last game of the day to make it to Global's much better position. 03:08:06.020 --> 03:08:10.260 Seventh place, 430 points on the leaderboard, just need to be able to close it out strong 03:08:10.260 --> 03:08:15.220 in the last two games. Listen and Alo in the mix as well, just trying to float 03:08:15.220 --> 03:08:20.220 Above one of these teams, they're going to be in 23rd place, 214 points. 03:08:20.220 --> 03:08:24.220 I want to say roughly like 56 points away from getting inside of that bubble. 03:08:24.220 --> 03:08:27.220 That's definitely going to help in 10-fold. Raven does go down. 03:08:27.220 --> 03:08:29.220 Although I'm already trying to shockwave over, 03:08:29.220 --> 03:08:33.220 CDC realizing the shockwaves are coming in, he's going to try to disengage himself. 03:08:33.220 --> 03:08:36.220 Can't be the hero in this situation that started so fast. 03:08:37.220 --> 03:08:40.220 Unfortunately, a turn of events here for CDC and Raven. 03:08:40.220 --> 03:08:42.220 They find themselves at the bottom of the standings here. 03:08:42.220 --> 03:08:47.940 But hey, all of this is experience gathered and effort learned. 03:08:48.940 --> 03:08:51.240 So, Hager's there finding G-monster in the feed. 03:08:51.240 --> 03:08:54.040 So, Hager's continuing to do what he needs to earn himself some points. 03:08:54.040 --> 03:08:56.580 He's continuing to fight his way back into first. 03:08:57.840 --> 03:08:59.480 It's neck and neck up at the top. 03:08:59.480 --> 03:09:01.440 No teams can make a mistake now. 03:09:01.440 --> 03:09:06.120 If you're acorn and bolts, you're going to need to have those big game wins as well. 03:09:06.120 --> 03:09:07.920 Otherwise, the dream is out. 03:09:07.920 --> 03:09:15.600 Yeah, which is surprising to start this day. We're talking about phenomenal play from bold solo impact 03:09:15.840 --> 03:09:21.740 Him and acorns ability to remain consistent in each and every one of these games 03:09:21.740 --> 03:09:24.240 It's just something went wrong today 03:09:24.600 --> 03:09:26.000 No compared to yesterday 03:09:26.000 --> 03:09:28.000 They had a 32nd place in 19 03:09:28.040 --> 03:09:31.600 They didn't make up for it a moment with a third place with five eliminations 03:09:31.600 --> 03:09:35.480 But now that 98 points away from first place two games left 03:09:35.480 --> 03:09:39.640 They almost have a little bit of control over their destiny. 03:09:39.640 --> 03:09:42.920 They really got to hope for Kurt Beno, H, Ritual, Holden, Rapid, 03:09:42.920 --> 03:09:47.920 whole slew of players to have a much worse performance than they've had so far, 03:09:47.920 --> 03:09:48.920 even on average. 03:09:48.920 --> 03:09:51.840 H is a Ritual rotating back on over towards Sandy Strip, 03:09:51.840 --> 03:09:53.840 another team uncontested drop. 03:09:53.840 --> 03:09:56.480 They really have conditioned a good portion of this lobby 03:09:56.480 --> 03:09:59.480 to stay away from this Mending Machine. 03:09:59.480 --> 03:10:01.920 You know, and I'm just thinking, Javi and Aminish actually jumped up 03:10:01.920 --> 03:10:04.200 a placing point last game as well. 03:10:04.200 --> 03:10:12.400 Their average placement so far in the tournament is 8.6, the best of all the teams right now inside of the top 5. 03:10:13.600 --> 03:10:19.600 That is a pretty impressive stat, just kind of taking a surface glance at it right now. 03:10:19.600 --> 03:10:23.480 Everyone else though, clearly though, has way more elums, that's why they have the... 03:10:25.200 --> 03:10:27.200 ...high of points overall. 03:10:27.200 --> 03:10:32.400 But still, Javi had been explaining exceptional right now, so great time to just start checking in with them. 03:10:32.400 --> 03:10:33.920 What's going well with them? 03:10:33.920 --> 03:10:36.720 Why can they keep making it work here? 03:10:36.720 --> 03:10:39.880 It seems like a project fortress is treating them very well. 03:10:39.880 --> 03:10:42.840 And honestly, an unlikely duo coming into this one, 03:10:42.840 --> 03:10:44.920 you know, at one point it was Riet and Javi 03:10:44.920 --> 03:10:46.880 and Minish with a whole other player. 03:10:46.880 --> 03:10:50.200 And Riet goes ahead and says, hey, Cooper, you want a duo? 03:10:50.200 --> 03:10:52.120 We're not playing as well as we hoped. 03:10:52.120 --> 03:10:53.880 So he goes a separate way. 03:10:53.880 --> 03:10:56.240 Javi and Minish, they formed just in time 03:10:56.240 --> 03:10:58.600 to have a phenomenal performance in play-ins. 03:10:58.600 --> 03:11:00.960 They followed up with a good performance in heats 03:11:00.960 --> 03:11:02.640 and already continuing that trend here 03:11:02.640 --> 03:11:04.720 with a top five position on the leaderboard. 03:11:04.720 --> 03:11:07.920 75 points away, but could be both those players 03:11:07.920 --> 03:11:10.480 first FNCS championship. 03:11:10.480 --> 03:11:12.880 But again, when you look at the leaderboard on the right, 03:11:12.880 --> 03:11:15.840 it's just so close, not only for the actual first place 03:11:15.840 --> 03:11:18.560 on the leaderboard, but for the top 13 overall, 03:11:18.560 --> 03:11:21.360 where you see 13 and 14 plays 03:11:21.360 --> 03:11:23.760 have already been eliminated out of this lobby. 03:11:23.760 --> 03:11:25.800 And honestly, you don't want to look back 03:11:25.800 --> 03:11:27.160 at this moment, monster saying, 03:11:27.160 --> 03:11:29.520 hey, I had the chance and I wasted it. 03:11:29.520 --> 03:11:32.840 Yeah most definitely and I'm actually looking at the standings just for like 03:11:32.840 --> 03:11:36.440 Javi and the Minish's you know placement performances. They actually have two 03:11:36.440 --> 03:11:40.280 second places in there and last game obviously pulled that third so they have 03:11:40.280 --> 03:11:45.840 come close to a win multiple times now. We will be keeping eye on them. 03:11:45.840 --> 03:11:49.420 But with Cold and Rapid here from the Dark Dominion now to this new draw 03:11:49.420 --> 03:11:54.360 spot so far it seems to be playing off relatively well. They have 400 damage 03:11:54.360 --> 03:11:57.440 of all plenty of material and they actually pulls them. 03:11:57.440 --> 03:12:01.120 Okay, this is really good for cold and raptor here. 03:12:01.120 --> 03:12:03.000 They actually need a little bit of luck 03:12:03.000 --> 03:12:04.840 and it seems like it's playing off. 03:12:04.840 --> 03:12:05.800 Yeah, I'm thinking in my head, 03:12:05.800 --> 03:12:07.800 the only thing they're missing is a little bit of high ground, 03:12:07.800 --> 03:12:09.040 but it's cold and rapid. 03:12:09.040 --> 03:12:09.880 When do they ever? 03:12:09.880 --> 03:12:11.800 On the way on the high ground, exactly. 03:12:11.800 --> 03:12:13.000 They get what they want. 03:12:13.000 --> 03:12:14.320 Just like Peter bot employee over. 03:12:14.320 --> 03:12:17.080 And that was pressure throughout the entirety of this game. 03:12:17.080 --> 03:12:18.760 They're almost a thousand above the threshold, 03:12:18.760 --> 03:12:20.120 but you wouldn't think that to be true. 03:12:20.120 --> 03:12:22.640 They only have one elimination so far. 03:12:22.640 --> 03:12:23.920 So they're going for it. 03:12:23.920 --> 03:12:25.560 They're going for these high-eathed games 03:12:25.560 --> 03:12:28.040 just to not finding any success on the actual eliminations 03:12:28.040 --> 03:12:31.160 up until then, where they take down both Jack and N-Pen 03:12:31.160 --> 03:12:33.120 before they got to rotate to the next zone. 03:12:33.120 --> 03:12:35.200 So that's going to replenish a lot of their builds 03:12:35.200 --> 03:12:36.880 that can pick and choose what resource they 03:12:36.880 --> 03:12:38.440 want to take with them before they finally 03:12:38.440 --> 03:12:39.600 make their way on out. 03:12:39.600 --> 03:12:41.360 This is crazy, because they're really 03:12:41.360 --> 03:12:43.000 playing to their strengths right now. 03:12:43.000 --> 03:12:44.280 It was a full-breed miss, so they're 03:12:44.280 --> 03:12:46.200 just going to be shockwaving their way all the way 03:12:46.200 --> 03:12:46.880 into the zone. 03:12:46.880 --> 03:12:48.640 Shoot, they might even end up on some high ground 03:12:48.640 --> 03:12:49.160 here shortly. 03:12:49.160 --> 03:12:50.440 They have to mess the play for it. 03:12:50.440 --> 03:12:52.600 Peterbock gets caught in a spider's trap right there. 03:12:52.600 --> 03:12:57.680 gotta be careful on the other side as we were watching that though we missed what 03:12:57.680 --> 03:13:03.280 was happening over here. Vlex buddy you're looking the wrong way. Venom knocks him 03:13:03.280 --> 03:13:09.080 upside the head and then they get the follow-up in the finish. 03:13:13.000 --> 03:13:17.240 Equipment bolts quickly rotating in towards the zone and they're using that 03:13:17.240 --> 03:13:20.680 as a quick second here to look back seeing anybody that still has the 03:13:20.680 --> 03:13:23.920 a journey to make like Dole's air and Eshu outside of the zone. 03:13:23.920 --> 03:13:25.680 They're just pressuring it. 03:13:25.680 --> 03:13:28.080 Trying to make it harder for them to not only make it in, 03:13:28.080 --> 03:13:29.520 but even if they do, they're not going 03:13:29.520 --> 03:13:30.480 to make it in healthy. 03:13:30.480 --> 03:13:31.760 Another elimination towards the side. 03:13:31.760 --> 03:13:34.000 Slepsi and Wager is able to pick up one. 03:13:34.000 --> 03:13:36.000 They push paper and Rezzi back as Curve. 03:13:36.000 --> 03:13:38.160 Looking like he's trying to approach in that direction. 03:13:38.160 --> 03:13:39.760 You see Venno peeking through the cone, 03:13:39.760 --> 03:13:42.160 gathering vital information for their team. 03:13:42.160 --> 03:13:43.920 You see Venno and Curve are the only team 03:13:43.920 --> 03:13:47.200 who haven't been hit by any surge so far in each 03:13:47.200 --> 03:13:48.920 and every one of these games. 03:13:48.920 --> 03:13:53.480 They're just going to show that that early game presence by Curve and Venno is paying off 10-4. 03:13:53.480 --> 03:13:59.320 It's just been the most aggressive thing, again, been clearly the most successful in the early game. 03:13:59.320 --> 03:14:04.920 This game's a little bit slower for them in the early game, but their mid game is just taking off right now. 03:14:04.920 --> 03:14:11.360 They are in another prime situation to play for high ground here in the end game, and we know what they do well. 03:14:11.360 --> 03:14:16.640 They play it late. They let people get their first, you know, little taste of hype, 03:14:16.640 --> 03:14:22.480 And then they come in and put their influence to the test wrapping in cold though much different strategy for them 03:14:22.960 --> 03:14:26.260 We've seen them play low ground time in time out front side 03:14:27.080 --> 03:14:29.320 Inside you name it. They'll be there 03:14:30.320 --> 03:14:35.120 From the roadtaste though. This is still a difficult terrain to play with right they have to go up and over this mountain 03:14:36.080 --> 03:14:42.000 Peterbot and for you now completely positioned up and then you have clicks and games already based on the opposite side 03:14:42.000 --> 03:14:46.540 Some of the time we've seen teams take it early. 03:14:46.540 --> 03:14:49.500 Clint's and A's were able to hold it early on in day number one, 03:14:49.500 --> 03:14:52.700 but since then, honestly, it's been changing hands. 03:14:52.700 --> 03:14:54.900 They're reaching out to one of these zones here in the endgame. 03:14:54.900 --> 03:14:56.900 They position themselves above Peterbott and Boyle. 03:14:56.900 --> 03:14:59.340 Half the bloodshed read to stagger themselves back. 03:14:59.340 --> 03:15:01.420 Look down, rain fire from above. 03:15:01.420 --> 03:15:03.500 Not necessarily getting eliminations here, 03:15:03.500 --> 03:15:07.380 but they are just perting every single player they connect shots with 03:15:07.380 --> 03:15:08.580 as they rotate on over. 03:15:08.580 --> 03:15:10.180 Curve and Venom position down below. 03:15:10.180 --> 03:15:11.540 Hopkins and Minish towards the side. 03:15:11.540 --> 03:15:16.360 clicks any Higgs seen in previous games them try to go ahead and claim high ground as their own 03:15:16.360 --> 03:15:18.460 They don't necessarily have that luxury up in the cell now 03:15:18.460 --> 03:15:24.540 They pull so in their favor and they immediately build up saying hey if you want high ground come take it from us 03:15:24.660 --> 03:15:31.440 That's crazy, and that's so different than anything else. We've seen from clicks makes they've been building single straight 03:15:31.640 --> 03:15:38.480 Standing towers, but now Higgs is putting up this huge flex right now with a monster's face that I'll incur here 03:15:38.480 --> 03:15:42.160 have no issues fighting their way to the new zone though. 03:15:42.160 --> 03:15:43.480 That was almost a fresh Elim. 03:15:43.480 --> 03:15:45.280 Oh, actually it is an Elim. 03:15:45.280 --> 03:15:49.000 As things catch up there, Venom finds another one. 03:15:49.000 --> 03:15:50.960 He was already in the lead, Jacob, 03:15:50.960 --> 03:15:52.360 with the most amount of Elims, 03:15:52.360 --> 03:15:53.360 and he's continued to do so, 03:15:53.360 --> 03:15:54.720 but look at this, not looking good. 03:15:54.720 --> 03:15:56.680 Boyo's down, Peterbot comes through the clutch up. 03:15:56.680 --> 03:15:59.400 He finds one, can he get the follow-up here? 03:15:59.400 --> 03:16:01.360 He's doing so much damage, 03:16:01.360 --> 03:16:04.200 but he can't quite get the finish, but it's okay. 03:16:04.200 --> 03:16:06.920 He's bought Boyo enough time to get saved here. 03:16:06.920 --> 03:16:11.920 Yeah, and they have the splashes and they're gonna have NC start to use those along the pizza, but the zone is moving in. 03:16:11.920 --> 03:16:14.920 Ten takes of damage, instantly pop with a big pop. 03:16:14.920 --> 03:16:17.920 Really trust in Peterbott, get those splashes out in time. 03:16:17.920 --> 03:16:19.920 You have to be careful though, right above them, clicks and hicks. 03:16:19.920 --> 03:16:22.920 Even in front of the zone, we got Curve and Beto. 03:16:22.920 --> 03:16:24.920 We got Muzz and Spinks as well. 03:16:24.920 --> 03:16:28.920 Honestly, the storylines couldn't do you be any better here in this game, 03:16:28.920 --> 03:16:30.920 because you got first place right now, Curve and Beto. 03:16:30.920 --> 03:16:35.920 Could be the first time a player has won in both EU and NA. 03:16:35.920 --> 03:16:40.920 two of the hard old regions, and they find a big elimination on the Peterbott, 03:16:40.920 --> 03:16:44.120 taking one of the hardest teams out of their path to the finish line. 03:16:44.120 --> 03:16:45.920 Folio's down and out. 03:16:45.920 --> 03:16:52.920 The full elim comes through right there, Jacob, and he gets the finish as well. 03:16:52.920 --> 03:16:54.920 And just like that, they're up in the lead. 03:16:54.920 --> 03:16:59.420 Now Klicks and Higgs though, on high ground, doing exactly what they need to do. 03:16:59.420 --> 03:17:01.920 They have solidified the positioning here. 03:17:01.920 --> 03:17:08.080 He's doing a good job of sacrificing a little bit of HP so that way they can go deep into 03:17:08.080 --> 03:17:12.560 the zone, reconnect on that eye ground, it's going over Fort's bridge and Fortress that 03:17:12.560 --> 03:17:16.080 gives him the luxury to look towards the backside of the zone, seeing players late to shockwave 03:17:16.080 --> 03:17:17.080 in. 03:17:17.080 --> 03:17:21.040 But they think it's all smooth sailing, but Curve and Venom wait for these perfect moments. 03:17:21.040 --> 03:17:24.560 They've elevated themselves step by step and they're waiting until they least expect it, 03:17:24.560 --> 03:17:28.400 but Peter Box still going on his rampage, big down onto Dragon trying to figure out 03:17:28.400 --> 03:17:32.120 But Curve and Venom, they're matching in blow for blow. 03:17:32.120 --> 03:17:34.200 Eight elims now. 03:17:34.200 --> 03:17:36.120 Venom is really starting to heat up here. 03:17:36.120 --> 03:17:38.200 And they're not even interested in jumping down for maps. 03:17:38.200 --> 03:17:38.680 Notice that. 03:17:38.680 --> 03:17:40.480 They want to maintain this positioning. 03:17:40.480 --> 03:17:42.520 And they're still trying to time for high ground here 03:17:42.520 --> 03:17:44.000 and try to play for another win. 03:17:44.000 --> 03:17:46.200 Higgs, though, is the only one up top. 03:17:46.200 --> 03:17:47.520 They send Clicks down low. 03:17:47.520 --> 03:17:50.360 Clicks finds Peterbot, finishes him up. 03:17:50.360 --> 03:17:52.480 Sweeps him under the rug. 03:17:52.480 --> 03:17:54.560 And now Venom and Curve. 03:17:54.560 --> 03:17:56.200 Here comes the setup. 03:17:56.200 --> 03:17:56.960 Off they go. 03:17:56.960 --> 03:17:58.280 Curve's got no maps, though. 03:17:58.280 --> 03:18:02.960 They have to concede to go lower and lower here, and this terrain's not helping. 03:18:02.960 --> 03:18:05.960 Look at all these old builds as things are moving back and forth, 03:18:05.960 --> 03:18:09.760 but Venom, Curve, are still neck-to-neck with Clits and Higgs right here. 03:18:10.040 --> 03:18:13.400 Yeah, Curve and Venom, I feel like they know they don't even necessarily need the high ground. 03:18:13.400 --> 03:18:15.520 They don't even necessarily need the win. 03:18:15.520 --> 03:18:17.200 They just need to remain consistent. 03:18:17.200 --> 03:18:18.360 That slows them down a little bit. 03:18:18.360 --> 03:18:20.040 Big Shot is going to land on the Venom. 03:18:20.040 --> 03:18:22.000 Pressure coming from up above. 03:18:22.000 --> 03:18:24.520 Thank gosh that Curve is there to alleviate some of the pressure, 03:18:24.520 --> 03:18:25.800 holding on to the build. 03:18:25.800 --> 03:18:27.340 But if you blink, you might have missed it. 03:18:27.340 --> 03:18:28.740 Higgs has went down. 03:18:28.740 --> 03:18:30.020 Klitz trying to go for the revive. 03:18:30.020 --> 03:18:34.420 Curve and Venom realize nobody else is up there to contest it. 03:18:34.420 --> 03:18:35.300 They use the fizz. 03:18:35.300 --> 03:18:36.500 They use the shock waves. 03:18:36.500 --> 03:18:38.380 They instantly take away the high ground. 03:18:38.380 --> 03:18:39.860 Six teams left monster. 03:18:39.860 --> 03:18:42.340 And everybody at least has to do it by their side 03:18:42.340 --> 03:18:43.620 unless it's cold. 03:18:43.620 --> 03:18:44.620 He goes down. 03:18:44.620 --> 03:18:46.540 Rapid is now left by himself. 03:18:46.540 --> 03:18:48.500 And he has the awareness to the awareness 03:18:48.500 --> 03:18:49.620 that keeps shooting back at them. 03:18:49.620 --> 03:18:50.620 Venom tries to keep the pressure, 03:18:50.620 --> 03:18:53.100 but the shock waves put Klitz and Higgs up on high ground. 03:18:53.100 --> 03:18:55.100 And they know we don't have enough mats 03:18:55.100 --> 03:18:56.260 to hold this one down. 03:18:56.260 --> 03:18:59.140 Hlixin Higgs managed to have just enough HP though 03:18:59.140 --> 03:19:00.380 to go ahead and heal back in this game, 03:19:00.380 --> 03:19:01.460 but then you have Rapid. 03:19:01.460 --> 03:19:03.660 Look at this, just so low surviving right now 03:19:03.660 --> 03:19:07.540 as a player here in the mid-ground right now. 03:19:07.540 --> 03:19:10.020 Trying to evaluate what he wants to do here, 03:19:10.020 --> 03:19:11.620 but he's got pressure coming in 03:19:11.620 --> 03:19:15.100 from potentially Venom and Curve here on the layer. 03:19:15.100 --> 03:19:17.580 Right behind, he comes and he actually finds Curve. 03:19:17.580 --> 03:19:19.740 It's gonna be Muzz who jumps in 03:19:19.740 --> 03:19:21.220 and they get the full finish. 03:19:21.220 --> 03:19:23.260 Yeah, but still, that's no worries to me. 03:19:23.260 --> 03:19:25.140 Fennos is taking his time to heal up. 03:19:25.140 --> 03:19:27.340 Quickly go ahead and spur his outside of the zone still. 03:19:27.340 --> 03:19:29.100 Almost a full chug chug left. 03:19:29.100 --> 03:19:30.860 The Higgs is quickly on the chase. 03:19:30.860 --> 03:19:32.340 Gets a good amount of damage. 03:19:32.340 --> 03:19:34.300 And so the zone does the rest. 03:19:34.300 --> 03:19:37.260 Clicks and Higgs have finally woken up from their slumber. 03:19:37.260 --> 03:19:40.540 From day one to day two, they finally found their form back. 03:19:40.540 --> 03:19:41.700 Five eliminations here. 03:19:41.700 --> 03:19:43.580 But Rapid is still up, trying to close the gap. 03:19:43.580 --> 03:19:46.860 Pin it down onto Sphinx, separates him from Muzz. 03:19:46.860 --> 03:19:47.980 But you see he has no feelings. 03:19:47.980 --> 03:19:49.500 He probably feels in the back of his mind. 03:19:49.500 --> 03:19:51.100 He has to get this elimination. 03:19:51.100 --> 03:19:56.100 But underneath Braids takes it down gets the elimination and move one step closer to purge 03:19:56.100 --> 03:19:57.100 Oh 03:19:57.100 --> 03:20:01.260 Oh, we say talk about the slumber Bolts in the eight corner were down low now 03:20:01.260 --> 03:20:04.740 They're the sleeping Giants starting to wake up here putting their influence in the mix 03:20:04.740 --> 03:20:08.300 But you have a lot more players to worry about Braids and visuals are here to mess around as well 03:20:08.300 --> 03:20:11.580 They also need the refresh to as they're out of material 03:20:11.580 --> 03:20:17.340 So they're gonna be forced into this fight here whether you like it or not and then of course clicks and hicks have to come down 03:20:17.340 --> 03:20:19.700 down and jump in this battle as well. 03:20:19.700 --> 03:20:21.380 Bolts uses the shockwave to go up. 03:20:21.380 --> 03:20:23.220 Someone gets eliminated in the sky. 03:20:23.220 --> 03:20:24.460 It's actually Klitz. 03:20:24.460 --> 03:20:26.100 He couldn't touch down in time. 03:20:26.100 --> 03:20:28.500 And Bolts and Acorn all of a sudden 03:20:28.500 --> 03:20:30.740 now find themselves in a winning position, 03:20:30.740 --> 03:20:32.700 and the shock goes through. 03:20:32.700 --> 03:20:37.140 And just like that, Bolts manages to do it again here. 03:20:37.140 --> 03:20:41.660 Yeah, Bolts and Acorn pop off in the second to last game 03:20:41.660 --> 03:20:44.260 of the day, becoming the second team to win 03:20:44.260 --> 03:20:46.940 two different games this weekend. 03:20:46.940 --> 03:20:51.500 in a leaderboard monster in a world that is so stacked and closed. 03:20:51.500 --> 03:20:55.540 This one is surely going to move them one step closer to contending for 03:20:55.540 --> 03:20:58.380 another FNCS championship. 03:20:58.380 --> 03:21:00.020 Seek one left game to go. 03:21:00.020 --> 03:21:00.660 Let's do it. 03:21:02.780 --> 03:21:07.300 I keep thinking, man, like I've got a handle on it. 03:21:07.300 --> 03:21:09.300 There's like, you know, Zeke just followed the action. 03:21:09.300 --> 03:21:10.340 It's all cool. 03:21:10.340 --> 03:21:15.260 And no, man, we literally just talked about the top five right before this, 03:21:15.260 --> 03:21:19.360 right. And Acorn and Bolts were that sixth place team. They were the team on the outside 03:21:19.360 --> 03:21:24.340 and they said, Zeke, I'm sorry. Did you forget about us? We can now be in the top five. Why 03:21:24.340 --> 03:21:28.120 did you forget about us? And now they are fighting for our love and affection. I cannot 03:21:28.120 --> 03:21:34.420 believe this game 11 with so many Titanic duos all doing the same thing. They can grow. 03:21:34.420 --> 03:21:39.060 We can do it. This is our chance with two games left. We can fight for an axe. Acorn 03:21:39.060 --> 03:21:42.820 and Bolts say, you know what? We'd like to toss her name in the head. Little 03:21:42.820 --> 03:21:47.820 put on the hat. There you go, Zeke. Go ahead. Shuffle it up. I don't know. I don't know. Kelly, I'm losing it. I'm breaking it out. 03:21:47.820 --> 03:22:00.820 I mean, this really was the game for our teams in that six to 10th place spot. Everyone that was in our top five having some issues that they're going down to a solo situation or going down early, you know, unless you're bent out. 03:22:00.820 --> 03:22:08.820 But this acorn and bolts that were just right outside of that edge making sure that they're just playing the low ground. They're playing what they do best. They don't need to be disruptor. 03:22:08.820 --> 03:22:10.820 They don't need to be getting all these eliminations. 03:22:10.820 --> 03:22:13.320 They just need to make it to the endgame right there. 03:22:13.320 --> 03:22:15.320 And Boltz once again going to a solo, 03:22:15.320 --> 03:22:17.320 improving that he is going to make sure 03:22:17.320 --> 03:22:19.820 that him and Acorn stay at the top of our leaderboard. 03:22:20.820 --> 03:22:22.320 So funny. Game 11 now. 03:22:22.320 --> 03:22:24.820 I mean, we're just watching all the chaos kind of unfold on night. 03:22:24.820 --> 03:22:27.320 Oh my gosh, Peter Botts, Shynohoda, Flix and Higgs, 03:22:27.320 --> 03:22:28.320 they go up for it. 03:22:28.320 --> 03:22:29.820 Manu and Curve, they start to get active. 03:22:29.820 --> 03:22:30.820 All the subs happening. 03:22:30.820 --> 03:22:32.320 Elim, Elim, Elim. 03:22:32.320 --> 03:22:33.820 And then we take a look 03:22:33.820 --> 03:22:35.320 where everybody else is at. 03:22:35.320 --> 03:22:37.320 Acorn and Boltz on the low ground. 03:22:37.320 --> 03:22:45.160 the game. They're going to 03:22:45.160 --> 03:22:47.160 have around 100 100 full 03:22:47.160 --> 03:22:49.160 healthy duo. And they finished 03:22:49.160 --> 03:22:51.960 the game just like that as a 03:22:51.960 --> 03:22:53.560 duo. Incredible stuff for them 03:22:53.560 --> 03:22:55.160 to kind of re enter the 03:22:55.160 --> 03:22:56.760 conversation, not in that game 03:22:56.760 --> 03:22:57.760 specifically because they 03:22:57.760 --> 03:22:58.560 didn't even know they were 03:22:58.560 --> 03:22:59.600 alive in that game. All of 03:22:59.600 --> 03:23:00.160 a sudden, it's like, Oh my 03:23:00.160 --> 03:23:01.800 gosh, they're chilling on the 03:23:01.800 --> 03:23:02.800 low ground. But now I can 03:23:02.800 --> 03:23:04.400 only imagine how close they 03:23:04.400 --> 03:23:06.400 are to keep themselves back 03:23:06.400 --> 03:23:11.400 tiny little corner was the difference maker, 574 points. 03:23:13.000 --> 03:23:16.320 Fortnite fan, we have one game left to go. 03:23:17.160 --> 03:23:18.600 We're gonna go to a break, okay? 03:23:18.600 --> 03:23:20.480 I need a moment to breathe, okay? 03:23:20.480 --> 03:23:22.320 I need a moment to breathe. 03:23:22.320 --> 03:23:24.400 When we come back, we start setting up 03:23:24.400 --> 03:23:27.840 because this is a close run, okay? 03:23:27.840 --> 03:23:30.640 Go find some popcorn, find a drink, use the bathroom. 03:23:30.640 --> 03:23:31.480 We'll be right back, okay? 03:23:31.480 --> 03:23:32.560 We'll be right back. 03:23:32.560 --> 03:23:33.880 We'll be right back. 03:23:33.880 --> 03:23:40.880 This is my world, watch me arrive, watch me arrive 03:24:03.880 --> 03:24:05.880 I 03:25:03.880 --> 03:25:05.880 Oh 03:25:33.880 --> 03:25:35.180 I'm gonna sleep. 03:25:35.180 --> 03:25:36.520 Okay. 03:25:36.520 --> 03:25:37.960 Okay. 03:25:37.960 --> 03:25:38.800 Oh my god. 03:25:38.800 --> 03:25:39.640 Oh my god. 03:25:43.340 --> 03:25:45.520 And I don't know how to feel about it. 03:25:45.520 --> 03:25:48.560 You're not used to losing, getting beaten. 03:25:48.560 --> 03:25:50.240 Not like this. 03:25:50.240 --> 03:25:53.040 These players are just so locked in. 03:25:53.040 --> 03:25:54.120 Could it be the milk? 03:25:55.840 --> 03:25:56.680 Mm-hmm. 03:25:56.680 --> 03:25:58.680 I 03:26:11.200 --> 03:26:13.200 Stay there 03:26:26.680 --> 03:26:44.980 Okay, all right. I'm fine. I'm calm. He's not. He's not everything. Everything is O. A case 03:26:44.980 --> 03:26:49.960 you're joining us. Welcome. This is the FNCS Grand Finals. No big deal. One of the most 03:26:49.960 --> 03:26:55.200 important moments in the FNCS. We have one game left to go. You know, Hey, crazy stuff 03:26:55.200 --> 03:26:59.440 happened in that last game. Acorn and Bolt's got themselves a victory on that last game. 03:26:59.440 --> 03:27:02.960 That's crazy, right? Yeah. Why don't we go and take a look at the standings? Because 03:27:02.960 --> 03:27:12.960 it gets crazier because right now, Curve and Venno are in harsh place with 659 points. 03:27:12.960 --> 03:27:14.560 Oh, oh, oh, oh. 03:27:14.560 --> 03:27:16.000 Kelly! 03:27:16.000 --> 03:27:20.500 They have 78 eliminations, more than a single 03:27:20.500 --> 03:27:23.800 bite of acorn and bolts. 03:27:23.800 --> 03:27:29.680 Venom and Curve have showed today what they do best. 03:27:29.680 --> 03:27:32.280 Those early eliminations going into mid-game, 03:27:32.280 --> 03:27:35.160 making sure that they don't have to worry about storm surge, 03:27:35.160 --> 03:27:36.800 and then controlling the mid-ground, 03:27:36.800 --> 03:27:38.440 either chopping people from above 03:27:38.440 --> 03:27:40.400 or eliminating people down below. 03:27:40.400 --> 03:27:42.920 They do it time and time again. 03:27:42.920 --> 03:27:45.320 And you know what, maybe day one wasn't third day, 03:27:45.320 --> 03:27:47.440 but it's better late than never. 03:27:47.440 --> 03:27:50.760 Then showing everyone why he is not just moving states 03:27:50.760 --> 03:27:52.680 like we see a lot of these players do in North America. 03:27:52.680 --> 03:27:56.580 No, he's moving countries to claim this as his own. 03:27:56.580 --> 03:27:59.680 Manifesting destiny, it's all about America's history. 03:27:59.680 --> 03:28:02.840 And he's showing why Brandon did it first over here. 03:28:02.840 --> 03:28:07.040 Please put an absolute huge exclamation point 03:28:07.040 --> 03:28:11.840 on the fact that these guys were in 10th place 03:28:11.840 --> 03:28:12.680 coming into the day. 03:28:12.680 --> 03:28:20.320 We have played five games and they now have an 85 point lead over second place. 03:28:20.960 --> 03:28:25.760 I don't know what kind of crazy stat or how this is going to look on paper, 03:28:25.760 --> 03:28:30.200 but this has to be one of the most incredible day two performances, day two 03:28:30.200 --> 03:28:33.640 comebacks, whatever you want to call it, that we have ever seen. 03:28:33.640 --> 03:28:38.480 I mean, 78, how in the what's even going on? 03:28:38.480 --> 03:28:41.840 These guys, every single time we watch the game, it's just just a highlight 03:28:41.840 --> 03:28:46.960 real for them, dude, you know, we were talking about it during the break there. 03:28:46.960 --> 03:28:50.280 And it's like, at a certain point, this is going to become mathematically impossible, 03:28:50.280 --> 03:28:55.340 right? Like, at a certain point, we've tuned into them at like the early stages of the 03:28:55.340 --> 03:28:59.060 game and they have four or five or, you know, even three elims, right? 03:28:59.660 --> 03:29:05.180 They just have to do what they've been doing all all day long, and they will walk 03:29:05.180 --> 03:29:07.980 away as the winners. Now, we only have a minute and a half. 03:29:07.980 --> 03:29:11.360 I really quickly just want to flip on over the top 13, right? 03:29:11.840 --> 03:29:15.740 Yes, we are absolutely playing for a first place and an Axe of Champions, right? 03:29:15.740 --> 03:29:20.940 But we also can't forget Top 13 or right now playing for their spot at the Summit. 03:29:20.940 --> 03:29:27.640 298. Do not forget that number. Going into this game, 298 is the current cutoff. 03:29:27.640 --> 03:29:29.840 Seek and Taki are holding that. 03:29:29.840 --> 03:29:31.940 But guys, we have one game left to go. 03:29:31.940 --> 03:29:34.140 Let's like even just look at Scare and Osid, right? 03:29:34.140 --> 03:29:39.240 We saw Scare and Osid pop off earlier on, like not even just a few weeks ago. 03:29:39.240 --> 03:29:41.960 They could try and play for that spot. 03:29:41.960 --> 03:29:43.880 Look at Jardu as well, right? 03:29:43.880 --> 03:29:46.520 Even Zytho, we saw them get a victory out. 03:29:46.520 --> 03:29:48.760 I mean, Kelly, there's so many players. 03:29:48.760 --> 03:29:51.880 This goes down to 20, Kelly, it's possible. 03:29:51.880 --> 03:29:54.280 It's literally like 42 points that separate 13 03:29:54.280 --> 03:29:56.320 from 20th place, and I'm guessing it's even closer 03:29:56.320 --> 03:29:58.440 down below, so we could probably get to page three, 03:29:58.440 --> 03:30:00.240 see teams in our 30th place spot. 03:30:00.240 --> 03:30:01.600 And if they have that pop-off game, 03:30:01.600 --> 03:30:03.360 and we know that there is a possibility 03:30:03.360 --> 03:30:05.320 of some teams just kind of sliding by, 03:30:05.320 --> 03:30:06.440 making it into the top five, 03:30:06.440 --> 03:30:08.280 and just grabbing a handful of eliminations. 03:30:08.280 --> 03:30:14.120 That right there is 90 points and could be the difference maker of going to Düsseldorf or not vivid 03:30:14.120 --> 03:30:21.560 This is what NAC is all about. We have so many big names in the top all the teams that we have been talking about are finally showing up right now 03:30:21.560 --> 03:30:23.560 And this is the final game 03:30:24.360 --> 03:30:29.360 It's crazy. I mean, there's so much stuff going on in that leaderboard so much we could break down 03:30:29.920 --> 03:30:35.000 But there's only one way to find out who's gonna walk away not only champions 03:30:35.000 --> 03:30:41.040 who's gonna get second who's gonna get third who's gonna qualify to the land event and that's just to play the game Z 03:30:42.200 --> 03:30:50.080 vivid the last game of the day right now or knife and lock in every single thing that these players do 03:30:50.600 --> 03:30:58.900 Whether they get an elim or get eliminated. This is it the last game to make the impossible 03:30:59.720 --> 03:31:00.800 possible 03:31:00.800 --> 03:31:04.760 For the last time today MDF Jacob PR. Take it away 03:31:05.000 --> 03:31:14.520 I've never seen so many story lines go down the lead of board so far curve to win his first FNCS champion 03:31:14.520 --> 03:31:21.000 Beno could win two titles on the hardest regions with EU and NA and at his fourth overall a quarter 03:31:21.000 --> 03:31:26.920 win another major one both could be a West and Central champion cold back on top rapid wins 03:31:26.920 --> 03:31:32.120 this first I could keep going all day but it just goes to show the stories are endless today 03:31:32.120 --> 03:31:35.320 This is what makes NA one of the best regions to watch. 03:31:35.320 --> 03:31:38.960 It's what is really the pinnacle of what Fortnite's all about. 03:31:38.960 --> 03:31:43.040 And we, of course, have the privilege of calling all the action here. 03:31:43.040 --> 03:31:44.280 You've been watching it go down. 03:31:44.280 --> 03:31:46.680 Let's see if luck is on their side. 03:31:52.480 --> 03:31:54.280 Coming into a game 12, 03:31:54.280 --> 03:31:57.960 but honestly, the most recent FNCS is almost a year now. 03:31:57.960 --> 03:32:01.160 People always have that same conversation. 03:32:01.160 --> 03:32:04.560 who will land on first place. 03:32:04.560 --> 03:32:07.080 And right now, it looks like we have 03:32:07.080 --> 03:32:09.880 an interesting situation breaking down. 03:32:09.880 --> 03:32:13.480 Peter Bottenpoil looked to contest Kurt and Venno, 03:32:13.480 --> 03:32:16.320 but Kurt and Venno already see that one coming. 03:32:16.320 --> 03:32:18.200 They leave, they go to Squibbley Shores, 03:32:18.200 --> 03:32:21.960 and they get another early game elimination. 03:32:21.960 --> 03:32:23.280 Zeke said it, monster. 03:32:23.280 --> 03:32:26.440 Eventually this will become mathematically impossible 03:32:26.440 --> 03:32:29.080 for anybody outside of Kurt and Venno to win. 03:32:29.080 --> 03:32:29.920 I called it. 03:32:29.920 --> 03:32:31.380 I already knew this was gonna happen. 03:32:31.380 --> 03:32:34.680 I knew that Venom was someone that Peterbot and Foyo, 03:32:34.680 --> 03:32:38.160 like respect at such a competitive level, 03:32:38.160 --> 03:32:39.760 they would be willing to contest them. 03:32:39.760 --> 03:32:42.480 They would be willing to try to throw their tournament off. 03:32:42.480 --> 03:32:45.640 But Venom is one of the smartest players we've ever had 03:32:45.640 --> 03:32:48.000 and he will see it from a mile away. 03:32:48.000 --> 03:32:50.120 So even now, them just mix it up. 03:32:50.120 --> 03:32:51.440 It's just a safety strap. 03:32:51.440 --> 03:32:54.000 It's to say, hey, who wants to battle us? 03:32:54.000 --> 03:32:54.840 Come bring it. 03:32:54.840 --> 03:32:56.200 We're not afraid to mix it up. 03:32:56.200 --> 03:32:57.940 We're not as afraid to stay dynamic 03:32:57.940 --> 03:32:59.040 here in the last game. 03:32:59.920 --> 03:33:01.840 like Peter Bottenpoil going into this game though. 03:33:01.840 --> 03:33:04.200 With that elimination, of course, with Beno and Curve, 03:33:04.200 --> 03:33:08.400 they are 98 points away from an FNCS champion. 03:33:08.400 --> 03:33:10.320 And that's only playing catch up to Curve and Beno. 03:33:10.320 --> 03:33:13.000 They still got so many big names in their path 03:33:13.000 --> 03:33:14.560 as they're looking to take it. 03:33:14.560 --> 03:33:16.720 They probably noticed that Curve and Beno weren't 03:33:16.720 --> 03:33:17.560 at the battle would. 03:33:17.560 --> 03:33:18.560 They immediately turn around. 03:33:18.560 --> 03:33:19.880 They got to handle what's going on. 03:33:19.880 --> 03:33:22.680 Maybe they think this is them, but it's Raven and CDZ, 03:33:22.680 --> 03:33:25.080 a whole other team that gives a huge moment 03:33:25.080 --> 03:33:28.080 here for Curve and Beno to look on over, possibly engage, 03:33:28.080 --> 03:33:32.560 possibly disengaged, the choice is definitely theirs, especially since they've taken it a little bit longer than we told. 03:33:32.560 --> 03:33:39.520 Peterbot lands a shot, the Boyle goes down, Raven is escaping back inside the building, that puts Peterbot at 1v2! 03:33:39.520 --> 03:33:45.680 Oh no, and the finish comes through as well, and that is not the way you want this to start going down right here. 03:33:45.680 --> 03:33:51.280 If you're Peterbot or Boyle, you need so many more points, you cannot afford to be this far behind. 03:33:51.280 --> 03:33:56.680 Peterbot though, in a world of trouble here, playing at enemy builds, he's gonna have to back off, shot through the wall as well. 03:33:56.680 --> 03:34:01.240 This is, of course, Raven and CDZ's one chance to go on and pounce on them. 03:34:01.240 --> 03:34:03.720 Peterbot's back in the next year, fully healthy. 03:34:04.360 --> 03:34:09.320 This is an important shot here, and things are looking pretty south now for him. 03:34:10.040 --> 03:34:13.080 His biggest thing here was Peterbot was able to get the materials from Boyle, 03:34:13.080 --> 03:34:18.520 but Raven lands another monster shot, getting the shield gone out from Peterbot. 03:34:18.520 --> 03:34:20.840 He has the mini still there, but he's running out of builds. 03:34:20.840 --> 03:34:23.720 CDZ and Raven really don't have no materials down below, 03:34:23.720 --> 03:34:26.440 so they can't not fight upwards, so he has to drop down low. 03:34:26.440 --> 03:34:32.160 Peterbot again trying to take the fight to them as CDZ get dropped to this less than 50 HP 03:34:32.160 --> 03:34:38.280 But a third party's coming in monster a third party from the east from Dark Dominion looks to interrupt this play 03:34:39.200 --> 03:34:41.200 I'm sad wouldn't be surprised 03:34:42.480 --> 03:34:46.240 Give it a second here Raven CDD even a little too passive now 03:34:46.240 --> 03:34:53.560 They had an opportunity to finish up this Elon they back off and said rapid and cold show up and they are cleaning up house 03:34:53.560 --> 03:34:59.640 faster than ever they find two quick elins even chewing the down body just to 03:34:59.640 --> 03:35:05.620 show and flex that they're here as well and look at this they are hunting for 03:35:05.620 --> 03:35:13.520 poor Peterbot who's now hiding inside of the factory just unprecedented type of 03:35:13.520 --> 03:35:18.600 endgame right now you never see this level of clash go down here definitely 03:35:18.600 --> 03:35:21.920 not for the likes of Peterbot he's normally the one hunting now he's 03:35:21.920 --> 03:35:26.440 being hunts. And they probably saw on the beat that Pollo did go down so they 03:35:26.440 --> 03:35:30.480 immediately left their drop spot to be line gone over. This is a team that's on 03:35:30.480 --> 03:35:34.960 their tail cold is in third place you see it there Peter Botten Pollo in fourth 03:35:34.960 --> 03:35:38.880 place and really was asking the question is anybody gonna be brave 03:35:38.880 --> 03:35:43.040 enough with the point gap so close you would really risk your spot on the 03:35:43.040 --> 03:35:47.080 leaderboard if you're looking to go on the chase but then no curve they not 03:35:47.080 --> 03:35:50.880 only left their drop spot at battlewood they left their second drop 03:35:50.880 --> 03:35:55.120 fought at squizzly and they're already going on the hunt for these elims they 03:35:55.120 --> 03:36:00.160 don't want to win after game 12 monster they want to win during this game so they 03:36:00.160 --> 03:36:03.760 could take a much needed victory lap well this is crazy you know if you just 03:36:03.760 --> 03:36:08.600 allow them to continue to get elims like this which they have done extremely 03:36:08.600 --> 03:36:13.160 successfully way more successfully than any other team here on the weekend they 03:36:13.160 --> 03:36:18.560 will be too far ahead we would be asking so much of cold and rapid we're 03:36:18.560 --> 03:36:23.560 talking upwards of 10, 15 Elans and a Victor Royale. 03:36:24.520 --> 03:36:25.480 Give this a second now. 03:36:25.480 --> 03:36:29.000 So from one team wipe onto another now, 03:36:29.000 --> 03:36:30.720 dozen Escher cannot fight. 03:36:30.720 --> 03:36:33.840 He fired up Venno in curve here. 03:36:33.840 --> 03:36:36.160 Meanwhile, curve has been live this entire time, 03:36:36.160 --> 03:36:37.000 by the way. 03:36:37.000 --> 03:36:38.760 Do not sleep on him. 03:36:38.760 --> 03:36:42.280 This is again, nothing like we've ever seen before. 03:36:42.280 --> 03:36:44.800 Yeah, especially for mom and Peterbot's dinner. 03:36:44.800 --> 03:36:45.640 Imagine it. 03:36:45.640 --> 03:36:51.040 He is eliminated by cold and rapid Peter bot goes down in fourth place 03:36:51.200 --> 03:36:54.200 Tied with aegers and bridge will only get worse from there 03:36:54.200 --> 03:36:57.160 But then oh takes a big shot, but he is not backing down 03:36:57.440 --> 03:37:02.480 Issue gets eliminated the siphon comes in much needed build get replenished by Beno 03:37:02.480 --> 03:37:08.900 Curve not slow it down trying to alleviate the pressure lands a huge shot on the socier and the elimination one as well 03:37:08.900 --> 03:37:13.240 Five elims monster five eliminations here 03:37:13.240 --> 03:37:18.520 This is domination at its finest in major one on NA central 03:37:18.980 --> 03:37:25.420 Looking so good for them right now wrapping cold right now on the hunt to just trying to figure out what is going on here 03:37:26.380 --> 03:37:29.780 They're already at three elims as well. So rapid and colder playing 03:37:30.140 --> 03:37:36.180 So aggressive to you gotta give them credit right here. We know what the what the task at hand is 03:37:36.180 --> 03:37:40.960 We know what needs to be done and it what it really does feel like the impossible 03:37:40.980 --> 03:37:47.240 It's asking them to pop off right now and go into the upper double digit elimination territory 03:37:47.620 --> 03:37:53.260 And potentially win the game because for them it's about the championship victory 03:37:55.300 --> 03:38:00.140 Brilliant and jar who don't play me a little bit of storm fight right here keeping us busy right now 03:38:00.140 --> 03:38:09.300 now. Essentially two sides of the coin. We're watching the battle for first. Oh, down, down. 03:38:09.300 --> 03:38:15.580 Benno is down, but Curve saved the day. Oh my gosh. Are we witnessing? This is a montage 03:38:15.580 --> 03:38:21.180 performance. I don't want to call it too soon, Monster, but this is beginning to look 03:38:21.180 --> 03:38:25.820 like a victory lap for Curve and Benno. The writing's on the wall. You just have 03:38:25.820 --> 03:38:30.380 have to read it brother. All right. It's when whenever you're ready, just let us know they're 03:38:30.380 --> 03:38:35.940 at six eliminations now. Aquin and bolts, a little cheeky here though, trying to see if 03:38:35.940 --> 03:38:41.100 anyone's willing to kind of sneak on by to find a couple of elims right now. And let's 03:38:41.100 --> 03:38:45.740 just paint the bigger picture. Obviously, Kurt and Venno off to the races right now, 03:38:45.740 --> 03:38:50.700 a 100 point gap separating them from the rest of the competition. And then you 03:38:50.700 --> 03:38:56.260 You have so many other teams trying to fight for a land spot to the global summit. 03:38:56.260 --> 03:38:58.060 It's right around the corner. 03:38:58.060 --> 03:39:00.180 Who is going to be in Germany? 03:39:00.180 --> 03:39:02.900 Only the top 13 will make it. 03:39:02.900 --> 03:39:09.180 As it stands right now, in order for cold and rapid to win the tournament, this is 03:39:09.180 --> 03:39:14.300 as it stands right now, they need Curve and Venom to go down outside of top 25 with 03:39:14.300 --> 03:39:16.620 not a single elimination more. 03:39:16.620 --> 03:39:21.860 And then they need to win the game with 10 or so eliminations in the double digit. 03:39:21.860 --> 03:39:25.620 So it's going to show how much of a runaway this is turning into. 03:39:25.620 --> 03:39:28.740 And that's where you see a lot of lurks going down because it's not only the battle for 03:39:28.740 --> 03:39:29.740 first. 03:39:29.740 --> 03:39:34.220 If you look at Tyler and Chance here, 391 points on the overall leaderboard. 03:39:34.220 --> 03:39:35.740 They're in 10th place. 03:39:35.740 --> 03:39:38.740 If they go down early, they can kiss their summit spot. 03:39:38.740 --> 03:39:39.740 Goodbye. 03:39:39.740 --> 03:39:42.740 Definitely be really close for them. 03:39:42.740 --> 03:39:46.740 They'll be holding on to a thin margin. 03:39:46.740 --> 03:39:49.740 Taki and Zeke on the other side. 03:39:49.740 --> 03:39:52.740 Same can be said for these teams here. 03:39:52.740 --> 03:39:54.740 2-8 points in the number 20. 03:39:54.740 --> 03:39:58.740 So you are seeing moments of greatness here coming out. 03:39:58.740 --> 03:40:02.740 Some of our competitors here on the two-day format. 03:40:02.740 --> 03:40:10.220 It's not going to make a quick clean glide here. 03:40:10.220 --> 03:40:15.060 They're just trying to dodge all the noise down below, having to worry about surge, having 03:40:15.060 --> 03:40:17.220 to worry about others rotating in your path. 03:40:17.220 --> 03:40:21.580 It would be a good plan for a seat in Kentucky here, 13th place, they just need to hold 03:40:21.580 --> 03:40:23.580 on to their current spot on that lead aboard. 03:40:23.580 --> 03:40:27.220 Looks nice though, a moment ago did see them in the feed, they picked up at least 03:40:27.220 --> 03:40:31.460 one more elimination here, they too have a little bit more of a cushion than some 03:40:31.460 --> 03:40:35.380 some of the other counter parts, 430 points in ninth place. 03:40:35.380 --> 03:40:36.980 They just need to make sure to finish strong. 03:40:36.980 --> 03:40:38.620 It's more of a confidence thing than anything else. 03:40:38.620 --> 03:40:39.820 I feel like at this point. 03:40:41.580 --> 03:40:46.100 Yeah, gotta find their move, but you made it this far. 03:40:46.100 --> 03:40:50.940 They had such exceptional moments of greatness, 03:40:50.940 --> 03:40:53.500 but in the end, everything has to come together. 03:40:53.500 --> 03:40:57.460 And then how do you account for having the curves, 03:40:57.460 --> 03:41:01.160 the cold, those types of performances that we've seen. 03:41:03.020 --> 03:41:05.080 Stuffed ass, all things have to come together. 03:41:05.080 --> 03:41:07.020 Cooper and Rito, they're still fighting 03:41:07.020 --> 03:41:09.940 for their qualification seats. 03:41:09.940 --> 03:41:13.380 Not fully safe just yet, not, that's how I feel. 03:41:13.380 --> 03:41:15.620 Let's take a look at the standings here. 03:41:15.620 --> 03:41:18.180 This is gonna put them at 12th place there, Jacob. 03:41:18.180 --> 03:41:20.220 So close. 03:41:20.220 --> 03:41:23.020 Now let's say they have a 22 point gap from 13th, 03:41:23.020 --> 03:41:24.980 which is actually the line. 03:41:24.980 --> 03:41:29.540 And then about a 44 or so fun gap between them and falling outside of the bubble, which 03:41:29.540 --> 03:41:34.220 means anything could be possible if they go down, let's just say, 15th place and anybody 03:41:34.220 --> 03:41:38.180 else kind of is able to secure a top eight or better. 03:41:38.180 --> 03:41:43.420 They can certainly overtake him on the leaderboard, but definitely so many different possibilities 03:41:43.420 --> 03:41:44.980 here as the tournament continues on. 03:41:44.980 --> 03:41:49.980 Brett's been here, a team that started inside of the bubble on the day, shortly fell 03:41:49.980 --> 03:41:51.980 out of it and is trying to work their way back. 03:41:51.980 --> 03:41:58.240 Even King another similarity here 17th place coming into this game, which means those eliminations eight more points 03:41:58.660 --> 03:42:02.120 He's definitely gonna boost them up the leaderboard just a little bit 03:42:02.120 --> 03:42:07.220 I think that almost puts them on the line outside of that bubble around 14th place with those evens 03:42:07.260 --> 03:42:11.560 Yeah, leaving King the last two games in place really well actually making it to end game 03:42:11.560 --> 03:42:17.680 And this time they actually have four total elim so just a monstrous performance so far definitely stepping up 03:42:17.680 --> 03:42:21.120 and doing what they need to when it matters most. 03:42:21.120 --> 03:42:23.080 Anolph and Sol kind of see what's going on here. 03:42:23.080 --> 03:42:25.160 They end up backing off. 03:42:25.160 --> 03:42:27.880 You have Ocin and Scare, another team that's very much 03:42:27.880 --> 03:42:30.480 in the conversation right now. 03:42:30.480 --> 03:42:32.000 Looking at how they've played, you 03:42:32.000 --> 03:42:35.320 have a fourth place as far as their best performance so far 03:42:35.320 --> 03:42:39.640 in last game, roughly 15th for them with a single e-room. 03:42:39.640 --> 03:42:42.360 So not too bad, definitely earning some placement points. 03:42:42.360 --> 03:42:44.480 If they can queue that up, you 03:42:44.480 --> 03:42:51.640 might just be doing enough to jump up and in this is going to be an interesting 03:42:51.640 --> 03:42:56.720 lobby slash end game because if you look at like day one we were getting what 03:42:56.720 --> 03:43:01.800 fourth fourth zone surge sometimes even earlier because I'll stack the lobby is 03:43:01.800 --> 03:43:05.440 to start the day we were getting big zone maybe six zone search there's only 03:43:05.440 --> 03:43:10.080 60 players up there's only three teams left in this lobby right now in the 03:43:10.080 --> 03:43:13.880 fourth zone so it's rather thinned out moving at a much more accelerated 03:43:13.880 --> 03:43:18.680 pace. So you have to be careful on some of these rotations. So instead of being able to 03:43:18.680 --> 03:43:23.480 rotate stacks with a bunch of other teams, hoping they choose them instead of you. Now some of these 03:43:23.480 --> 03:43:27.400 rotations would be a little bit more bare with you and maybe one or two other teams being the 03:43:27.400 --> 03:43:32.360 only one rotating in that direction. I mean, when you have cold, rapid acorn bolts, 03:43:32.360 --> 03:43:37.720 Irvin van El looking for Elins, right? Trying to either push the gap, close the gap. Like 03:43:38.440 --> 03:43:42.360 this is what happens. The lobby will tend to thin out and then everyone else of course 03:43:42.360 --> 03:43:46.200 trying to fight for their qualification spot. 03:43:46.200 --> 03:43:49.240 Look at this, the bento curve inside the storm right now. 03:43:49.240 --> 03:43:51.560 They surely know they've been enough, right? 03:43:51.560 --> 03:43:53.960 So now it's just time to chill out, hang out, 03:43:53.960 --> 03:43:57.720 enjoy the storm for a little bit. 03:43:57.720 --> 03:44:00.440 Here on the beach, they have no reason 03:44:00.440 --> 03:44:04.120 to really put themselves in any danger here. 03:44:04.120 --> 03:44:06.120 I'm done at all, especially with the zone moving on 03:44:06.120 --> 03:44:07.080 over towards the south. 03:44:07.080 --> 03:44:09.880 They know they can essentially ride the shoreline, 03:44:09.880 --> 03:44:11.480 whether they try to make a little shortcut 03:44:11.480 --> 03:44:12.880 and go on top of the mountains. 03:44:12.880 --> 03:44:15.240 They can go all the way towards the south. 03:44:15.240 --> 03:44:16.480 They do got one zone though, 03:44:16.480 --> 03:44:17.780 that they really have to worry about. 03:44:17.780 --> 03:44:19.480 So going from zone four to zone five, 03:44:19.480 --> 03:44:21.080 it moves from a one tick of damage 03:44:21.080 --> 03:44:23.420 into two from zone five to zone six. 03:44:23.420 --> 03:44:26.680 It moves from a five or two tick damage into a five. 03:44:26.680 --> 03:44:29.360 So even though they do have a lot of time on their side, 03:44:29.360 --> 03:44:31.800 they don't want to use all their resources 03:44:31.800 --> 03:44:33.000 just getting into zones. 03:44:33.000 --> 03:44:34.660 So you can kind of see on the map there 03:44:34.660 --> 03:44:35.720 on your left side side, 03:44:35.720 --> 03:44:37.940 that so many other teams are also outside of the zone 03:44:37.940 --> 03:44:39.260 and inside of their path. 03:44:39.260 --> 03:44:40.880 That could certainly cut them off. 03:44:40.880 --> 03:44:42.220 They're definitely been moving really quickly. 03:44:42.220 --> 03:44:43.180 Wagers and Sleeps, you know. 03:44:43.180 --> 03:44:45.720 Look at this, a little bit of a high ground position right here. 03:44:45.720 --> 03:44:48.360 Still, though, no surge warnings in sight. 03:44:48.360 --> 03:44:50.320 This game is moving so fast right now, 03:44:50.320 --> 03:44:52.400 it's a lobby starting to pin out. 03:44:52.400 --> 03:44:54.320 This is a pretty congested north side 03:44:54.320 --> 03:44:58.800 of the Battlewood Boulevard, so kind of a new site for us, 03:44:58.800 --> 03:44:59.840 if you will. 03:44:59.840 --> 03:45:01.200 You're going to have the names that are in play here. 03:45:01.200 --> 03:45:04.400 Jack, N-Pen, Acorn, Boltz on the other side. 03:45:04.400 --> 03:45:07.400 Ocean, Scare, Scare, though, gets fully finished right here. 03:45:07.400 --> 03:45:10.680 One of our bubble teams is out to the hands of Sikantaki. 03:45:10.680 --> 03:45:12.880 This is super important. 03:45:12.880 --> 03:45:15.120 Actually, it was way just from up top. 03:45:15.120 --> 03:45:16.720 It wasn't Seekentalki, but they're 03:45:16.720 --> 03:45:19.880 right next to the collateral damage. 03:45:23.480 --> 03:45:24.480 It's all the same, though. 03:45:24.480 --> 03:45:27.560 Seekentalki, that 13th place scaring Osyd. 03:45:27.560 --> 03:45:30.520 Or I should say just one Osyd by himself. 03:45:30.520 --> 03:45:32.160 It's going to be in 14th place. 03:45:32.160 --> 03:45:34.960 He has a bit up, eight gap, two overcome. 03:45:34.960 --> 03:45:36.080 Anything is possible. 03:45:36.080 --> 03:45:37.200 29 teams still up. 03:45:37.200 --> 03:45:38.680 So four more go down. 03:45:38.680 --> 03:45:40.280 You'll start to get those placement points. 03:45:40.280 --> 03:45:43.440 and they'll cascade in with each and every team that does go down. 03:45:43.840 --> 03:45:46.840 Contracts going to fall and already one less team to worry about here. 03:45:46.840 --> 03:45:48.340 Fifty-five players left in this game. 03:45:48.340 --> 03:45:51.480 So there's only one solo running around and that's going to be OSID. 03:45:54.680 --> 03:45:55.840 That's what you've got to do, though. 03:45:56.080 --> 03:45:58.420 It's really close yet so far now. 03:45:58.420 --> 03:46:03.840 It's all going to come down to, can you earn your way towards the positioning placement points there? 03:46:05.340 --> 03:46:07.160 Still see Rhee and Cooper up in the distance. 03:46:07.160 --> 03:46:09.160 Pagers and Ritual here, sitting pretty. 03:46:10.160 --> 03:46:13.160 Box open, eyes on Acorn and bolts, little did they know. 03:46:17.660 --> 03:46:19.660 Oh, look at the zone there, full snore. 03:46:19.660 --> 03:46:24.160 Okay, so this is gonna be working against the legs of Kurt and Beno, obviously, 03:46:24.160 --> 03:46:26.660 trapping far from the outskirts. 03:46:31.660 --> 03:46:32.660 Trying to get him. 03:46:33.160 --> 03:46:35.660 Not necessarily damage for Surge, as it does turn on. 03:46:35.660 --> 03:46:39.940 14 players do need to go down, but you can see where they stand. 400 above the 03:46:39.940 --> 03:46:42.620 damage threshold. This is the right next to the zone monster. They don't have to do 03:46:42.620 --> 03:46:46.220 much movement at all. Just kind of focus on getting that damage. We'll not receive 03:46:46.220 --> 03:46:50.380 in much. 8 corner bolts. Try to land some shots on the end pin and jack in the 03:46:50.380 --> 03:46:53.540 distance. Inadvertently kind of alleviating some of the pressure. End pin and 03:46:53.540 --> 03:46:58.020 jack could have looked to get aggressive. 8 corner bolts. 132 above the 03:46:58.020 --> 03:47:01.740 damage threshold. They sit in third place on the leaderboard. Amir six 03:47:01.740 --> 03:47:06.940 points out of second. Huge chunk of money differential. I'll talk about bolts. If somehow, 03:47:06.940 --> 03:47:12.460 some way, America can happen. Acorn and bolts keeps the major one magic alive. Bolts will become 03:47:12.460 --> 03:47:18.620 another player on that short list of two region champions. I know Venno is certainly in line to 03:47:18.620 --> 03:47:24.300 become another player on that list in two of the hardest regions in Fortnite and NA Central and 03:47:24.300 --> 03:47:32.740 to you. You're definitely looking to make history here and now reincuper, sitting pretty strong 03:47:32.740 --> 03:47:39.620 right now guys. 340 damage above, safe in the zone, plenty to work with right now. That's 03:47:39.620 --> 03:47:44.860 the type of position you want to see reincuper in if they're going to land. See Kentucky 03:47:44.860 --> 03:47:48.900 on the other side, same can be said for them. So I have a couple of shockers to 03:47:48.900 --> 03:47:53.380 work with, not too many to make it toward end game but hey, enough to at least stay 03:47:53.380 --> 03:47:58.380 in the race here for quite some time, so I'm going to come down to a repressor to see Kentucky 03:47:58.380 --> 03:48:01.740 though, see if they can time the rotate. 03:48:01.740 --> 03:48:06.260 Looking at who's positioned up though, Klicks and Hage trying to end this one with a splash. 03:48:06.260 --> 03:48:09.380 Already you can see them poison up for that high ground here, David. 03:48:09.380 --> 03:48:14.940 Yeah, still no matter what's been going good or bad in some of these games, they're 03:48:14.940 --> 03:48:17.620 just continuously one of the teams that, you know, if they make it this far into 03:48:17.620 --> 03:48:22.060 the game, they're going to contest for that high ground being in a beep just 03:48:22.060 --> 03:48:23.340 outside of that bubble, 03:48:23.340 --> 03:48:25.660 sees two teams with a little bit of a scuffle going on. 03:48:25.660 --> 03:48:27.700 They try to land some shots before they go ahead 03:48:27.700 --> 03:48:29.300 and make their way on over. 03:48:29.300 --> 03:48:30.300 They just try to pressure them 03:48:30.300 --> 03:48:31.660 so that way they don't make any beats, 03:48:31.660 --> 03:48:33.540 makes the rotation that much safer. 03:48:33.540 --> 03:48:35.140 That was reading Cooper in that distance, 03:48:35.140 --> 03:48:37.380 they're 193 above the damage threshold. 03:48:37.380 --> 03:48:39.820 Inside of that qualification ring, 03:48:39.820 --> 03:48:41.420 they just need to be able to hold on here, 03:48:41.420 --> 03:48:42.540 especially more so now 03:48:42.540 --> 03:48:44.940 with Avi and Aminus looking to walk them down. 03:48:44.940 --> 03:48:46.900 The lead close announcer earned some position points here 03:48:46.900 --> 03:48:49.940 as well, 28 teams still standing. 03:48:49.940 --> 03:48:51.820 Curve finds Kindling there in the feet. 03:48:51.820 --> 03:48:54.580 Venno super hit up off the rotate here. 03:48:54.580 --> 03:48:57.820 That brings them up to seven eliminations. 03:48:57.820 --> 03:49:02.140 And Curve finding his moment, finding his footing now. 03:49:02.140 --> 03:49:04.700 These last couple of games, I mean, it's been the Venno show, 03:49:04.700 --> 03:49:07.020 but Curve has stepped up what it mattered most, 03:49:07.020 --> 03:49:08.500 even in this game clutching, 03:49:08.500 --> 03:49:11.780 even after even now, finding the follow up 03:49:11.780 --> 03:49:14.820 in the refresh that they need to succeed here. 03:49:14.820 --> 03:49:16.660 Klixson Higgs though, 03:49:16.660 --> 03:49:18.960 just want to do what they can do best. 03:49:19.940 --> 03:49:28.900 Oh, not the best spot to be in for team in second place below the damage threshold, oops. 03:49:28.900 --> 03:49:32.340 Persistence there is able to lead some shots through underneath that cover. 03:49:32.340 --> 03:49:35.740 Get them above the damage threshold, a mere five, but at least it's something they're 03:49:35.740 --> 03:49:39.940 not taking active surge for 25 damage every seven seconds. 03:49:39.940 --> 03:49:42.740 Play compressed and try to put down some pressure, but only for a short moment. 03:49:42.740 --> 03:49:44.740 The bolt's gonna be able to hold off. 03:49:44.740 --> 03:49:51.020 It is a condo getting this information is going to be final, but buzz gets the down on to clicks 03:49:51.020 --> 03:49:56.260 I see it in the feed speaks even gets the cleanup here high ground changing hands 03:49:56.260 --> 03:50:01.260 But it's not buzzing speaks right now. It looks like a beam. It looks like curved and Venom are all fighting for it 03:50:01.260 --> 03:50:04.680 Yeah, if you look at a curve then I'll come in out of nowhere 03:50:04.680 --> 03:50:09.620 Just trying to time that high ground and up they go meanwhile threats and beer still fighting to stay in the tournament 03:50:09.700 --> 03:50:13.740 Life as well Higgs on the left side clutches up a nice little elan for himself 03:50:13.740 --> 03:50:18.980 That's gonna drop team monsters send them back to lobby.

This is all battles for seats at the LAN event where the story will continue. 03:52:40.020 --> 03:52:43.020 Chargu needs this. Chargu needs this game here. 03:52:43.020 --> 03:52:48.020 They were 15th place, two start at all, and now he's the only solo left in this game. 03:52:48.020 --> 03:52:53.020 The two teams that are left alive, Monster, both of them already have their spots secured. 03:52:53.020 --> 03:52:57.020 So this is everything for Chargu by himself. 03:52:57.020 --> 03:53:01.980 tried the shockwave and he gets tagged up left to right down in third place. 03:53:01.980 --> 03:53:05.900 Did he do enough to qualify for Dusseldorf? 03:53:05.900 --> 03:53:07.740 Well, it's going to be really close for now though. 03:53:07.740 --> 03:53:09.180 The action's on. 03:53:09.180 --> 03:53:11.100 Buds here who finds elimination. 03:53:11.100 --> 03:53:12.300 Rich will get tagged up. 03:53:12.300 --> 03:53:17.180 Big Tom Spinks looking for his moment and he does it in the end. 03:53:17.180 --> 03:53:21.900 And that's going to be a nice, wonderful way to end the FNCS here. 03:53:21.900 --> 03:53:24.460 That was more than just a wonderful way. 03:53:24.460 --> 03:53:30.260 Curve and Benno's complete and utter domination of a region. 03:53:30.260 --> 03:53:34.060 Congratulations for Curve, his first FNCS champion. 03:53:34.060 --> 03:53:39.300 We always remember our first and Benno, probably the most important FNCS title, 03:53:39.300 --> 03:53:41.540 dominating a whole other region. 03:53:41.540 --> 03:53:43.300 Muzz and Spinks win that game. 03:53:43.300 --> 03:53:46.180 But Z, Kelly, and Vivid, we have a new champion. 03:53:47.660 --> 03:53:52.660 Let's go, Muzz!

Sorry. 03:53:54.100 --> 03:53:58.540 Anyway, first off really quickly, MDF, Jacob, thank you guys so much for the cast. 03:53:58.540 --> 03:54:07.500 Fantastic day, as they called out, it is true, Venno and Curve are your champions and NAC, 03:54:07.500 --> 03:54:11.700 a fourth title for Venno and a first four curve. 03:54:11.700 --> 03:54:16.780 I mean, Kelly, Vivid, you know, Vivid called us out right last game. 03:54:16.780 --> 03:54:18.340 They came into the 10th place. 03:54:18.340 --> 03:54:23.060 I think for most people, you probably look at the standings at that point, you're like, 03:54:23.060 --> 03:54:25.000 Okay, yeah, like maybe they're not probably that big of a board. 03:54:25.000 --> 03:54:29.400 Didn't like it end like top five or something, but Kelly, 03:54:29.400 --> 03:54:32.960 Benno turned it on and there was just game after game 03:54:32.960 --> 03:54:35.240 where he's solo clutching, getting, you know, 03:54:35.240 --> 03:54:37.720 at one point a second plate to 11 elims, 03:54:37.720 --> 03:54:39.520 a second plate to like seven elims, 03:54:39.520 --> 03:54:41.520 he's just firing on all cylinders on, 03:54:41.520 --> 03:54:44.160 and no one can stop him, no one. 03:54:44.160 --> 03:54:48.120 And on the back of this carry right now, 03:54:48.120 --> 03:54:51.760 now we're looking at Benno and Curve, 03:54:51.760 --> 03:54:53.760 at the NCS Champions. 03:54:53.760 --> 03:54:56.760 I mean, you're saying no one can stop them, 03:54:56.760 --> 03:54:58.760 but we saw at the start of this game 03:54:58.760 --> 03:55:00.760 that a few players did try to stop the run. 03:55:00.760 --> 03:55:01.760 They tried. 03:55:01.760 --> 03:55:03.760 They tried, and Venno, they tried, but they failed. 03:55:03.760 --> 03:55:05.760 Because Curve and Venno were prepared. 03:55:05.760 --> 03:55:06.760 They were aware. 03:55:06.760 --> 03:55:08.760 Because Venno, he's not just an incredible fragger. 03:55:08.760 --> 03:55:10.760 He's also incredibly smart and aware 03:55:10.760 --> 03:55:11.760 when it comes to Fortnite, 03:55:11.760 --> 03:55:14.760 when it comes to the mindset of other pro players, 03:55:14.760 --> 03:55:16.760 he has them downloaded. 03:55:16.760 --> 03:55:18.760 And so he knows what these players are going to do, 03:55:18.760 --> 03:55:20.760 and he knows exactly how to respond 03:55:20.760 --> 03:55:27.480 how to respond to it. Curve and Venno showing everyone that they deserve this spot. They deserve 03:55:27.480 --> 03:55:32.680 first place and honestly just watching them climb up the leaderboard not necessarily through 03:55:32.680 --> 03:55:38.520 placements of it, but to get Elam after Elam to get so many. I honestly don't even know where 03:55:38.520 --> 03:55:43.240 they are at the end of the day. I'm excited to see our leaderboard. Socials are going crazy. 03:55:43.240 --> 03:55:47.480 Talking about, oh my gosh, Venno has entered a second prime, his third prime, his fourth 03:55:47.480 --> 03:55:52.740 I mean whatever you want to call it the guy is absolutely popping off and I couldn't agree more 03:55:52.740 --> 03:55:58.240 I once regarded Venom as literally the best player in the world and so did a lot of people right? 03:55:58.240 --> 03:56:04.100 This is back at like chapter 3 chapter 4 around that era where I remember VataVue in this guy and being like oh my gosh 03:56:04.100 --> 03:56:10.400 Everything he does is just so perfect and this I don't know what he did between day one and day two 03:56:10.400 --> 03:56:12.800 I don't know how good of sleep that he got 03:56:12.800 --> 03:56:16.840 not overnight, but I got to 03:56:16.840 --> 03:56:16.880 like that. Venom once again 03:56:20.640 --> 03:56:22.680 Venom curve was right there 03:56:22.680 --> 03:56:22.720 statistically speaking, always 03:56:27.520 --> 03:56:27.560 day together just stopped 03:56:34.520 --> 03:56:35.760 I'm sorry, I was just going 03:56:35.800 --> 03:56:37.000 to say that it's crazy to 03:56:37.000 --> 03:56:37.040 weeks ago. This would have 03:56:37.040 --> 03:56:37.060 been a very different stori 03:56:37.060 --> 03:56:41.860 this would have been a very different story because it was going to be Vino and cold for a while and it wasn't until cold 03:56:41.860 --> 03:56:50.380 and they're playing with a rapid that Vino ended up picking curve. So the fact that that is how this came to fruition and then they end up winning the major is just so amazing to me. 03:56:50.380 --> 03:57:02.780 Yeah, I mean, if you're if you're cold, you're thinking, did I make a mistake? Did I make a mistake? But you know what? It is what it is. We were talking with Lev and Lev was saying, you know, man, I'm so happy for Vino, you know, for a moment he 03:57:02.780 --> 03:57:11.180 forgot who he was, but today, today he remembers. Congratulations, Beno and curve FNCS champions. 03:57:11.180 --> 03:57:16.940 We can take a look at those standings because man, they just put on an absolute clinic. Let's 03:57:16.940 --> 03:57:26.380 look at this 727 points ahead of ages and ritual. Man, you know, again, congratulations. 03:57:26.380 --> 03:57:30.260 I do want to highlight this top five though as well. Shout out to ages and ritual acorn 03:57:30.260 --> 03:57:33.020 of bulls cold and rapid and 03:57:33.060 --> 03:57:36.100 who show up in that last g 03:57:36.120 --> 03:57:39.100 into that top five. That's 03:57:39.120 --> 03:57:42.060 out. That's why I'm frieking 03:57:42.100 --> 03:57:43.740 funny too because they've 03:57:43.760 --> 03:57:45.860 hiding in the shadows a li 03:57:45.900 --> 03:57:48.500 necessarily been playing p 03:57:48.540 --> 03:57:51.240 few games where I start t 03:57:51.280 --> 03:57:53.140 just a little bit more. Th 03:57:53.180 --> 03:57:55.040 They're getting eliminatio 03:57:55.080 --> 03:57:56.780 playing what they want to 03:57:56.820 --> 03:57:58.680 didn't really worry about 03:57:58.680 --> 03:58:00.620 didn't worry about making a showing for height. 03:58:00.620 --> 03:58:04.900 No Muzzins, Spinks played what they did best. 03:58:04.900 --> 03:58:06.860 Vivid, this is just the top 10 though. 03:58:06.860 --> 03:58:09.260 We still have a few more teams to look at. 03:58:09.260 --> 03:58:11.540 Absolutely, and that'll be the big question, right? 03:58:11.540 --> 03:58:14.700 Who actually went ahead and clinched up that qualification? 03:58:14.700 --> 03:58:16.380 I mean, Jacob was screaming, he was yelling, 03:58:16.380 --> 03:58:17.900 Jargu needed that game. 03:58:17.900 --> 03:58:20.980 He needed that game for sure. 03:58:20.980 --> 03:58:26.060 Jargu and Carillion, the solo clutch 03:58:26.060 --> 03:58:32.340 to sneak in to top 13 by just two points to knock a seek and talk 03:58:32.340 --> 03:58:36.980 you out to go ahead and qualify for do so. 03:58:36.980 --> 03:58:37.460 Dorff. 03:58:37.460 --> 03:58:39.660 We could also see if they're colon mad and clutch up. 03:58:39.660 --> 03:58:41.900 They were hanging around 10 plays throughout the entirety 03:58:41.900 --> 03:58:42.500 of grand finals. 03:58:42.500 --> 03:58:44.220 It kind of felt like bump down to 12, 03:58:44.220 --> 03:58:45.580 but still qualify in there. 03:58:45.580 --> 03:58:48.380 And then we got Reed and Cooper, who I think 03:58:48.380 --> 03:58:52.420 needed that game as well to go ahead and clinch up 372 points. 03:58:52.420 --> 03:58:53.180 So they did well. 03:58:53.180 --> 03:58:56.960 And there we have it, Zeke that rounds up all of the NA teams 03:58:56.960 --> 03:58:58.820 that are going to be going to Dusseldorf 03:58:58.820 --> 03:59:01.220 from these grand finals. 03:59:01.220 --> 03:59:02.580 And that's why you can't give up, right? 03:59:02.580 --> 03:59:05.620 Babe, that's exactly why in those final moments, 03:59:05.620 --> 03:59:07.780 just think about it, being in that situation, 03:59:07.780 --> 03:59:11.820 it's just you, the last game to make something happen 03:59:11.820 --> 03:59:13.460 and Jark you does. 03:59:13.460 --> 03:59:16.780 Christ. And now he's gonna keep his FNCS dream alive. 03:59:16.780 --> 03:59:18.820 He's gonna be going to the summit. 03:59:18.820 --> 03:59:19.980 Oh my gosh. 03:59:19.980 --> 03:59:24.980 what a fantastic day here in 03:59:24.980 --> 03:59:25.980 and you know, I just want to 03:59:25.980 --> 03:59:26.980 really quickly just double back 03:59:26.980 --> 03:59:27.980 to current then, oh, I think 03:59:27.980 --> 03:59:29.980 probably my favorite part of 03:59:29.980 --> 03:59:31.980 that game, Kelly and vivid was 03:59:31.980 --> 03:59:33.980 the fact that like in that last 03:59:33.980 --> 03:59:35.980 game immediately, then no sniff 03:59:35.980 --> 03:59:36.980 something out. He's like, you 03:59:36.980 --> 03:59:38.980 know what? This lobby is going 03:59:38.980 --> 03:59:39.980 to try and hunt me down. 03:59:39.980 --> 03:59:40.980 They're going to try and stop 03:59:40.980 --> 03:59:42.980 me from winning right here 03:59:42.980 --> 03:59:44.980 right now and then make a 03:59:44.980 --> 03:59:47.980 last second pivot. I mean, 03:59:47.980 --> 03:59:48.980 it feels very appropriate that 03:59:48.980 --> 03:59:55.480 that Venom would be able to sniff out Peter by feeling they kind of have the same mindset when it comes into competitive FNCS. 03:59:55.480 --> 04:00:02.680 But more importantly, I want to talk about the numbers vivid because we already looked at it, but to round things off almost 50 04:00:03.080 --> 04:00:07.080 eliminations just for Venom. I mean, what was it after game 10? 04:00:07.080 --> 04:00:11.380 We took a look at this and Venom was on 37 curve was on 31. 04:00:11.380 --> 04:00:16.480 So it's just still picked up so many eliminations ended the day on 49. 04:00:16.480 --> 04:00:17.760 and had to go ahead and show this 04:00:17.760 --> 04:00:19.840 because there's the individual performance. 04:00:19.840 --> 04:00:22.160 Obviously, Venom, standout player. 04:00:22.160 --> 04:00:25.520 Yeah, usually when we see a duo that has so many eliminations, 04:00:25.520 --> 04:00:27.120 for whatever reason, it's kind of like one-sided. 04:00:27.120 --> 04:00:27.960 You know what I mean? 04:00:27.960 --> 04:00:30.040 One person to do is just finding all the eliminations 04:00:30.040 --> 04:00:31.640 that day, and the other one kind of, you know, 04:00:31.640 --> 04:00:33.440 is a couple of 10, 20 behind or whatever. 04:00:33.440 --> 04:00:35.960 But Curve is literally like right there next to them. 04:00:35.960 --> 04:00:37.640 I mean, on the individual leaderboard, 04:00:37.640 --> 04:00:39.920 first and second place, what an incredible way 04:00:39.920 --> 04:00:41.600 to win an FCS. 04:00:41.600 --> 04:00:43.720 Well, I will say we have been hearing this discourse, 04:00:43.720 --> 04:00:46.040 especially when we shifted from trios to duos 04:00:46.040 --> 04:00:50.040 that the setup, the makeup of a duo is a little different now. 04:00:50.040 --> 04:00:51.700 We don't really need an IGL, a fragger. 04:00:51.700 --> 04:00:54.080 We kind of need two fraggers and two players 04:00:54.080 --> 04:00:56.560 that understand the game at an IGL level. 04:00:56.560 --> 04:00:59.160 And maybe that is Beno and Curve. 04:00:59.160 --> 04:01:00.320 Oh my gosh, yeah. 04:01:00.320 --> 04:01:02.440 And I'd love to see that from Curve, 04:01:02.440 --> 04:01:04.280 because I feel like I can already see now. 04:01:04.280 --> 04:01:05.560 So many players are gonna just be like, 04:01:05.560 --> 04:01:08.000 yeah, you got carried from Beno, but it's like, no. 04:01:08.000 --> 04:01:11.200 No, Curve actually put in work, right? 04:01:11.200 --> 04:01:13.600 They made this happen together. 04:01:13.600 --> 04:01:15.920 And yes, there was times where Beno was solo, 04:01:15.920 --> 04:01:18.840 But Beno having all that experience is like, hey, don't worry, man. 04:01:18.840 --> 04:01:20.920 Like, we're getting this win. 04:01:20.920 --> 04:01:25.520 If we're getting it today, what a phenomenal day of Fortnite. 04:01:25.520 --> 04:01:30.640 We do also have a look at our qualified to the summit list. 04:01:30.640 --> 04:01:31.960 Let's take a look at some of this, right? 04:01:31.960 --> 04:01:34.200 We got to take a peek at this at the very beginning of the show. 04:01:34.200 --> 04:01:40.000 And now we can go ahead and add the names from NAC to that list as well. 04:01:40.000 --> 04:01:44.120 Guys, this is starting to give us a more complete picture of Summit. 04:01:44.120 --> 04:01:48.760 And as I started to just pan across and see some of these things, 04:01:49.440 --> 04:01:53.440 this is just the mini-global, right?
