We're going to prove that this weekend. 09:43.620 --> 09:46.060 We're the best in the world when it comes to chemistry-wise. 09:46.060 --> 09:47.500 I'm happy for the moment when it comes to talking. 09:47.500 --> 09:49.220 We could stay with the same person sometimes. 09:49.220 --> 09:50.160 Winning! 09:51.940 --> 09:55.500 Lifting the trophy on stage is like dreaming a whole career. 09:55.500 --> 09:57.700 I'm not intimidated by stance growl... 09:57.700 --> 09:59.220 We're from close to winning a man. 09:59.220 --> 10:01.060 A few times now and I think this can be the one. 10:01.060 --> 10:03.180 We're one of the best fighting teams in this tournament. 10:03.180 --> 10:04.500 And we are here to win. 10:04.500 --> 10:07.140 We're not an exhibition mind, I think, but we must have the individual. 10:07.140 --> 10:09.620 We came close in a lot of major tournaments. 10:09.620 --> 10:11.820 It's finally time to just take the title home. 10:12.980 --> 10:14.860 The world's watching all we need to do now. 10:14.860 --> 10:17.380 So once again, we're the greatest when it comes to dance. 10:20.700 --> 10:22.860 Every year the throne room opens. 10:22.860 --> 10:26.940 The location may change, but the goal remains the same. 10:26.940 --> 10:30.980 Some of these players have weathered more storms than others on their way to this moment, 10:30.980 --> 10:35.100 but the only thing that matters now are the next 12 games. 10:35.100 --> 10:38.260 Antwerp, are you ready to crowd some new kings?

12:00.820 --> 12:03.300 International stage, so many players from around the world. 12:03.300 --> 12:07.380 I mean, has there been a moment for you guys that it's been like, man, this moment, this 12:07.380 --> 12:08.980 is what global is all about. 12:08.980 --> 12:12.060 Oh, the global is all about, I mean, the games haven't even started. 12:12.060 --> 12:15.180 I feel like we can't have that moment just yet, but listen, for me, it's all about 12:15.180 --> 12:16.180 the solo clutches. 12:16.180 --> 12:18.460 Obviously I'm a little biased here in North America. 12:18.460 --> 12:21.660 That summit land where we got to see the polo solo run. 12:21.660 --> 12:24.100 I would love to see that again, Levin. 12:24.100 --> 12:26.180 I hope we get lots of solo coaches, absolutely. 12:26.180 --> 12:29.220 I think, honestly, he's just chatting to the players 12:29.220 --> 12:30.900 and the leader, you know. 12:30.900 --> 12:32.540 You get to see a lot of these, you know, 12:32.540 --> 12:34.100 we've got a lot of young talent 12:34.100 --> 12:36.060 that has come through this year in Fortnite 12:36.060 --> 12:37.140 and getting to meet a lot of them, 12:37.140 --> 12:38.500 getting to speak to a lot of them, 12:38.500 --> 12:41.220 seeing just how down to earth and humble these kids are. 12:41.220 --> 12:42.060 It makes it so hard. 12:42.060 --> 12:43.740 You want to support all of them, you know what I mean? 12:43.740 --> 12:45.900 But you can only see one winner. 12:45.900 --> 12:48.780 But yeah, I think that's what's been the most special thing for me. 12:48.780 --> 12:49.380 I love that. 12:49.380 --> 12:53.660 Well, guys, obviously I'd love to quickly touch on the fact 12:53.660 --> 12:57.260 that though we are coming to end here with the global championship, 12:57.260 --> 13:02.100 today's the last day to vote for the Battle Royale format of next year. 13:02.100 --> 13:03.580 Hop in right now. 13:03.580 --> 13:04.980 Legends landing. 13:04.980 --> 13:06.300 Fortnite fans, do you want duos? 13:06.300 --> 13:08.100 Do you want trios? 13:08.100 --> 13:09.220 You let us know. 13:09.220 --> 13:10.660 Today is the final vote. 13:10.660 --> 13:14.220 I can tell you right now, we are just under 400,000 votes. 13:14.220 --> 13:20.340 jump in. Can we break 500,000? That would be the craziest thing ever. Please do us a 13:20.340 --> 13:24.900 favorite jump in a boat. Okay, let's focus back in on the competition. Obviously, let's 13:24.900 --> 13:27.620 kind of kick things off easy. Let's kind of start with some of the things we have to 13:27.620 --> 13:34.860 touch on, like the prize pool, right? $400,000 to do the walks away in first place. 13:34.860 --> 13:40.060 That is life changing money, huge amounts of money. Anyone that is competing here 13:40.060 --> 13:44.100 today is going to be walking away with something, but beyond the $400,000 for 13:44.100 --> 13:48.060 first place, 11 for me, it is the disparity between first and second place 13:48.060 --> 13:52.660 and we have seen how close these lands can be. We can see how even a single 13:52.660 --> 13:58.060 elimination can separate first and second, $160,000 on the line. Every 13:58.060 --> 14:01.780 little point matters. Every little point matters and regardless of where you 14:01.780 --> 14:04.540 are on the leaderboard, right, you want to make sure you're leaving 14:04.540 --> 14:07.420 with as much longer as possible, right? You don't want to leave any money 14:07.420 --> 14:09.420 you're going to get a lot of 14:09.420 --> 14:11.420 money on the table. Don't 14:11.420 --> 14:13.420 leave any self pride on the 14:13.420 --> 14:15.420 table, right? You want to give 14:15.420 --> 14:17.420 you as much out of it as you 14:17.420 --> 14:19.420 can. Yeah, and of course can't 14:19.420 --> 14:21.420 forget that trophy this year. 14:21.420 --> 14:23.420 They decided not to let me near 14:23.420 --> 14:25.420 the trophy. I don't know who found 14:25.420 --> 14:27.420 that footage of me wearing the 14:27.420 --> 14:28.420 crown. That was don't know 14:28.420 --> 14:29.420 anything about that, but still 14:29.420 --> 14:30.420 obviously the prize money 14:30.420 --> 14:31.420 spent task but have that 14:31.420 --> 14:32.420 trophy on the man to be like 14:32.420 --> 14:34.420 I'm a global champion would be 14:34.420 --> 14:35.420 pretty cool. You know, Kelly 14:35.420 --> 14:36.420 as well wanted to highlight 14:36.420 --> 14:40.420 points for elimination. Oh yeah and we definitely have some WQ teams here that 14:40.420 --> 14:43.620 can easily get double-digit eliminations and also want to point out 14:43.620 --> 14:48.460 that you have to make it to the top 25 teams to even be able to get any placement points 14:48.460 --> 14:51.580 and obviously we have teams that kind of prioritize placement or prioritize 14:51.580 --> 14:54.900 eliminations but in reality you need to do a little bit of both. 14:54.900 --> 14:59.340 Well, after you know age old game we've watched it in grand school and that's over the years many 14:59.340 --> 15:03.500 a time you see how important it is to have those elimination heavy players but 15:03.500 --> 15:05.280 regardless, just get the points on the board. 15:05.280 --> 15:07.280 However you do it, get the points on the board. 15:07.280 --> 15:08.120 That's all that matters. 15:08.120 --> 15:09.220 This is that time, right? 15:09.220 --> 15:10.720 We'd love to also take a look at some of the players. 15:10.720 --> 15:13.720 We'll be seeing compete here today. 15:13.720 --> 15:16.560 Man, stacked is a word we tend to use a lot, 15:16.560 --> 15:20.120 but man, look at even just this first stage, Kelly. 15:20.120 --> 15:23.040 I mean, we have Seido Monsi, Kringin, Lusha. 15:23.040 --> 15:24.120 We got so many different. 15:24.120 --> 15:25.920 Pablo Ingo, Peter Bob, Roy Reed, Cooper, 15:25.920 --> 15:27.480 everyone that you could think of, 15:27.480 --> 15:29.520 all of the biggest names from around the world 15:29.520 --> 15:31.360 have made sure that they want everyone 15:31.360 --> 15:32.480 to be screening their name. 15:32.480 --> 15:35.560 They want to make sure that they are the top team here. 15:35.560 --> 15:38.440 Yeah, I mean, we don't have the flags on the screen, 15:38.440 --> 15:40.640 but the regional representation players 15:40.640 --> 15:43.040 from so many different nations, so many different corners 15:43.040 --> 15:45.600 of the world competing on this stage. 15:45.600 --> 15:47.160 It's been a pleasure to watch a lot of them 15:47.160 --> 15:49.360 on their home regions over the course of the year, 15:49.360 --> 15:52.080 but seeing them stack up against some of the other top dogs. 15:52.080 --> 15:53.800 Sometimes you look at a player in your region, 15:53.800 --> 15:55.400 you think, yeah, he's pretty all right. 15:55.400 --> 15:58.040 Steps on the global stage, he gets one punch 15:58.040 --> 15:59.800 by somebody else from another region. 15:59.800 --> 16:00.880 I hold on a minute. 16:00.880 --> 16:02.680 I've got to re-calibrate my thinking here. 16:02.680 --> 16:05.000 So we're going to learn a lot about these players today. 16:05.000 --> 16:06.360 You've got me so excited. 16:06.360 --> 16:07.840 But obviously with so many players, 16:07.840 --> 16:10.000 we've got to maybe ask the question, 16:10.000 --> 16:10.920 do we have predictions, right? 16:10.920 --> 16:13.560 Who do we think could walk away in the top five? 16:13.560 --> 16:15.440 Kelly, would love to come to you first. 16:15.440 --> 16:17.160 This was somehow the easiest 16:17.160 --> 16:19.040 and one of the hardest decisions I've had to make. 16:19.040 --> 16:20.880 I think for top five it was definitely easy. 16:20.880 --> 16:22.120 I got Shark and Peony, Malibu, 16:22.120 --> 16:24.120 Kaviko, Vino, and Agers, Pixie, Swizzie, 16:24.120 --> 16:26.200 and why in cringe was the final decision 16:26.200 --> 16:28.200 I made for my top five? 16:28.200 --> 16:30.320 But I mean, for me as an NA representative, 16:30.320 --> 16:34.560 it feels a little rough to have only one duo here representing NA and even that 16:34.560 --> 16:38.400 that's an asterisk to it because Fano is a part of that duo but Levin I think we 16:38.400 --> 16:41.840 actually share a similar top five. I'm surprised I thought it'd be a bit more 16:41.840 --> 16:45.280 regional pride from you here Kelly but I think honestly when you look at how 16:45.280 --> 16:48.600 things are shaping up a lot of the EU boys are looking good we have a lot in 16:48.600 --> 16:52.440 common I think the big thing that we have in common is our winner Sharkin 16:52.440 --> 16:56.160 Tini. I think most people in the building today are predicting Sharkin Tini 16:56.160 --> 16:57.880 to be that team to win. 16:57.880 --> 16:58.920 They are the favorite. 16:58.920 --> 17:01.440 It's crazy how much they are the favorite 17:01.440 --> 17:02.600 when you factor in the fact that 17:02.600 --> 17:04.600 none of these players have ever won an FMCS. 17:04.600 --> 17:06.760 Charlie's playing at his first global championship 17:06.760 --> 17:08.520 and somehow walks into the door 17:08.520 --> 17:10.320 as the overwhelming favorite to win. 17:10.320 --> 17:12.680 It just goes to show how impressive he's been this year. 17:12.680 --> 17:14.400 And how beautiful would that story be 17:14.400 --> 17:15.640 with the start of this season 17:15.640 --> 17:17.480 where they're contested at Golden Grove 17:17.480 --> 17:18.440 and then they go and fight. 17:18.440 --> 17:19.520 Chappan, Flixty-Fort. 17:19.520 --> 17:21.280 It goes down to a 10-8, 17:21.280 --> 17:23.080 but they do able to claim their spot 17:23.080 --> 17:25.800 and they have so much respect from other players 17:25.800 --> 17:28.880 that no one even thinks to even try and land on them at Golden Grove. 17:28.880 --> 17:35.380 I mean obviously I love that call out but I've noticed another duo up on that top five, Viko Malibuca. 17:35.380 --> 17:39.080 Could we see the first treble? Is it that time? 17:39.080 --> 17:43.140 I mean if anyone's gonna do it you've got to think it's them. 17:43.140 --> 17:48.800 It is astounding to me how these guys have won both the FNCS Lens we've had this year 17:48.800 --> 17:52.220 and still come in almost like somewhat of an unbelievable right where like 17:52.220 --> 17:59.720 They don't have that many people to make them to out, like, win the whole thing, but they have shown us that even when they aren't the favorite to win, they can go and get the job done. 17:59.720 --> 18:05.720 And that's what matters. The LAN experience these guys have is unmatched, right? Nobody is one as many LANs as these two guys. 18:05.720 --> 18:18.020 And to speak on that, actually, no team in here. There has been five LANs since the Invitational for the FNCS, and the only duo here where both players have been to every single one is this team right here. 18:18.020 --> 18:22.480 Oh my gosh, I mean guys, if they work or win, right? 18:22.480 --> 18:26.480 Remember they went to Summit one Summit, went to EWC one that if we won here. 18:26.480 --> 18:29.320 This makes them the greatest of all time, right Levin, that's it. 18:29.320 --> 18:32.080 I mean it puts them up there in terms of the accolades, right? 18:32.080 --> 18:33.480 It'd be hard to argue. 18:33.480 --> 18:36.920 I think the key thing for these guys is they're not going to be playing the game 18:36.920 --> 18:39.080 we've seen them play this season, right? 18:39.080 --> 18:42.420 When you watch them in EU a lot this season, they land at the east of Nifty Lodge 18:42.420 --> 18:45.380 and they love to WK the West team. 18:45.380 --> 18:49.300 here at the global championships, Higgs and Curve are the team landing on the West. 18:49.300 --> 18:51.700 You're not going to just be able to run down Higgs and Curve. 18:51.700 --> 18:54.020 Those two are very, very good fighters. 18:54.020 --> 18:56.100 And so whatever Viko and Mani got kicked up today, 18:56.100 --> 18:58.500 it's going to be different from what we've got to watch this season. 18:59.060 --> 19:01.220 I love that. Well, hey, listen, guess what? 19:01.220 --> 19:04.340 Obviously being on land allows us to tap directly into the players. 19:04.340 --> 19:06.180 Frank, you're standing by with them right now. 19:06.900 --> 19:09.460 Thank you very much. Malibuco, I want to ask you first. 19:09.460 --> 19:13.140 There's been some up-and-down results recently. 19:13.140 --> 19:16.180 20 of for example in major two you came back fighting in that last chance 19:16.180 --> 19:20.660 qualifier what do you put that down to? We didn't really prepare the grand finals 19:20.660 --> 19:23.900 so it doesn't really matter for us all the other events that you prepare for we won 19:23.900 --> 19:28.940 or got like top five at least so it's going to be the same as well. And so how 19:28.940 --> 19:32.060 do you manage to lock in so successfully online because you could do the 19:32.060 --> 19:35.700 treble today? I mean you know we just we just don't care you know we're 19:35.700 --> 19:39.220 always like pulling this humble natural on gimmick even though we care 19:39.220 --> 19:45.140 I mean, what we do to prepare is, like, you know, we sleep well, we eat well, and then 19:45.140 --> 19:48.820 we just do what we do at home, you know, we just have our fun, and that helps us lock 19:48.820 --> 19:49.820 in. 19:49.820 --> 19:50.820 I'm not going to lie, Vika. 19:50.820 --> 19:53.460 I think you might be the least nonchalant person I've ever met. 19:53.460 --> 19:56.660 Malibu, on the other hand, are you able to keep your call out there? 19:56.660 --> 19:57.660 Uh, yeah. 19:57.660 --> 19:58.660 Yeah, I will. 19:58.660 --> 20:00.740 And that comes so naturally. 20:00.740 --> 20:04.340 What do you say to Vika when you need to calm him down? 20:04.340 --> 20:05.340 Uh... 20:05.340 --> 20:07.340 Why are you laughing? 20:07.340 --> 20:09.580 You can't repeat what he usually says, that's fine. 20:09.580 --> 20:13.420 Okay, well I think that's given us all the insight we need to know about that situation, 20:13.420 --> 20:15.500 but let's talk about Lifty Lodge. 20:15.500 --> 20:19.020 You're no stranger to heading west and keying your opponents, 20:19.020 --> 20:22.620 but now we're in an international land going up against Higgs and Kerb in that position. 20:22.620 --> 20:25.020 Are you gonna give them some peace and leave them alone? 20:25.020 --> 20:28.940 Oh, we'll see what happens, you know, maybe, can't delete, you know? 20:28.940 --> 20:30.860 Well, like, maybe something happens, maybe something doesn't. 20:31.500 --> 20:33.820 I don't think anything's gonna happen at Malavika. 20:33.820 --> 20:36.060 I can't leak as well, but can't leak anything. 20:36.060 --> 20:40.300 Okay, well, we'll just have to see what happens when you guys bought the butter bus. Let's head back to the desk 20:41.400 --> 20:44.020 Thank you so much for that Frankie. You know, it's interesting 20:44.020 --> 20:48.260 I always like to try and look at Vico in these types of moments, right? Because again, this is Lansing 20:48.260 --> 20:53.000 We can see them we can see what he's thinking Vico is playing the very calculated Vico right now 20:53.000 --> 20:55.800 It's not always on stage and I see him kind of dancing after the game 20:55.800 --> 20:58.540 Even if he's last place on my okay, that's the Vico that I know 20:59.060 --> 21:01.060 I'll be real guys. I 21:01.180 --> 21:05.540 Don't listen to no players in the intermise. I think all the players lie. They laugh. They lie 21:06.060 --> 21:07.420 They deceive. 21:07.420 --> 21:10.900 I think clearly there is a question mark for them, right? 21:10.900 --> 21:13.020 Because I think it comes down to, you know, 21:13.020 --> 21:14.380 on the question of are they going to WQ? 21:14.380 --> 21:16.060 Are they going to try fight Higgs and Kerl? 21:16.060 --> 21:16.940 They might not have the choice. 21:16.940 --> 21:18.140 They might get to a point in the tournament 21:18.140 --> 21:19.580 where like things aren't going that well. 21:19.580 --> 21:21.580 We just need to make something happen. 21:21.580 --> 21:22.540 We'll have to see, we'll have to see. 21:22.540 --> 21:24.540 Let's talk about some other players though. 21:24.540 --> 21:27.900 We got I like Swizzy and Pixie here. 21:27.900 --> 21:30.020 A global champion already. 21:30.020 --> 21:32.980 Maybe looking to bring a second title. 21:32.980 --> 21:34.620 You can already hear the crowd. 21:34.620 --> 21:37.740 I mean, Kelly, if this could happen, this would be legendary. 21:37.740 --> 21:41.460 I mean, not just to be a global champion, but also to get second place as well. 21:41.460 --> 21:45.380 Swizzy has been, Swizzy and Pixie have just been performing so incredibly well. 21:45.380 --> 21:48.140 But at the start of this year, it was a little bit of a different story. 21:48.140 --> 21:51.260 Starting off a little rough major one, they got 16th place. 21:51.260 --> 21:55.820 But turning that into major two, third place, such a huge change there, Levin. 21:55.820 --> 21:57.740 But obviously there was a pretty big change. 21:57.740 --> 22:00.620 So yeah, of course we got to talk about when they joined forces at the start of the year. 22:00.620 --> 22:02.340 And we all thought, yeah, they're gonna win everything. 22:02.340 --> 22:03.500 It's gonna be over. 22:03.500 --> 22:05.300 Swizz, he picked up the IGN in Mantle, 22:05.300 --> 22:06.900 which we thought would be natural for him 22:06.900 --> 22:10.340 because he'd been successful in that role in the past. 22:10.340 --> 22:11.420 It didn't quite work out. 22:11.420 --> 22:13.340 They made the switch to Pixie IGN, 22:13.340 --> 22:15.860 Pixie IGN for the first time in his career, 22:15.860 --> 22:17.180 but everything seems to be clicking. 22:17.180 --> 22:18.940 They started the year pretty poorly. 22:18.940 --> 22:21.180 Now, all of a sudden going into the World Championships, 22:21.180 --> 22:22.660 they looked like one of the better teams 22:22.660 --> 22:24.180 with a better chance of winning. 22:24.180 --> 22:26.220 And one of the dialogues we had at the start of this year 22:26.220 --> 22:28.380 when we switched from Trio to Duos was, 22:28.380 --> 22:30.060 how are these roles really gonna play out? 22:30.060 --> 22:31.860 Obviously, we have the IGL, we have the Fraggar, 22:31.860 --> 22:33.700 But as the seasons kind of developed, 22:33.700 --> 22:35.420 we kind of got into this mindset 22:35.420 --> 22:37.220 where maybe both players need to be fraggers. 22:37.220 --> 22:38.860 And then I know some people were talking about, 22:38.860 --> 22:39.900 no, you need two IGLs. 22:39.900 --> 22:42.100 Well, both of these guys can be IGLs 22:42.100 --> 22:43.500 and they can be fraggers. 22:43.500 --> 22:45.060 And I think that they are able to encompass 22:45.060 --> 22:46.900 any kind of situation that they run into. 22:46.900 --> 22:49.060 And frequently we see in these end games, 22:49.060 --> 22:51.340 these guys go down to a solo situation. 22:51.340 --> 22:53.420 And I think either of them can handle that. 22:53.420 --> 22:55.460 Look, it's good to see Swizzie in a role 22:55.460 --> 22:57.860 where he can be that fragger sitting the top, right? 22:57.860 --> 22:59.820 At Global's last year, a lot of people thought he was 22:59.820 --> 23:02.220 the MVP while playing in that way. 23:02.220 --> 23:03.500 I'm looking forward to seeing what these guys 23:03.500 --> 23:04.700 click up here from Bowell. 23:04.700 --> 23:05.900 Okay, all right, I like that. 23:05.900 --> 23:07.300 Let's talk about another duo here 23:07.300 --> 23:09.500 that was actually not on your top five, Led, 23:09.500 --> 23:11.820 but it was on Kelly, Cringe and Twi. 23:11.820 --> 23:12.660 Why? 23:12.660 --> 23:13.500 And then we'll come to you, Levin, 23:13.500 --> 23:14.740 to maybe say why you didn't. 23:14.740 --> 23:16.980 Well, I mean, look at all the Div Cups that they've had. 23:16.980 --> 23:18.500 They got ninth place in the first one. 23:18.500 --> 23:20.500 And then in the last three Div Cups, 23:20.500 --> 23:23.620 they have placed top four and even winning one of them. 23:23.620 --> 23:25.700 They have been one of the most consistent teams 23:25.700 --> 23:26.740 that we have seen. 23:26.740 --> 23:28.100 And more importantly, 23:28.100 --> 23:32.580 are one of the best low ground teams in EU and we know that we don't really get 23:32.580 --> 23:35.540 to see them that much to dominate in the low ground because they're typically 23:35.540 --> 23:39.820 going up against Sky and Skrull who also love the low ground but Sky and Skrull are 23:39.820 --> 23:43.700 triple contested we might not see them at the end game every single time but 23:43.700 --> 23:47.660 you know that cringe and fly are gonna take advantage of that. Yeah these two I'm 23:47.660 --> 23:50.940 so happy you put them on your list Kelly because honestly I didn't want to 23:50.940 --> 23:55.820 put them on a jinx. I want to see UK Fortnite on top and I think these 23:55.820 --> 24:01.740 to be the team to do it. When you look at how they performed in major two, they were so, so 24:01.740 --> 24:05.580 impressive on that first day. We thought they were going to be going head to head for the whole 24:05.580 --> 24:10.620 championship on day two. They slipped through their fingers. Again, it was a very new experience for 24:10.620 --> 24:14.940 them to be in that type of position. They felt that pain. They felt that sorrow. They felt what 24:14.940 --> 24:19.660 it feels like to lose a deaf and see as to watch it slip through your fingers. I'm hoping 24:19.660 --> 24:23.660 that experience today is enough to motivate and give them the confidence to keep fighting 24:23.660 --> 24:25.940 in the process of all 12 games. 24:25.940 --> 24:27.340 Listen, listen, I, you know, 24:27.340 --> 24:29.020 they got this kind of northeastern split. 24:29.020 --> 24:31.140 The only concern that I have for Quentin 24:31.140 --> 24:32.740 twice who's going to be landing next to them. 24:32.740 --> 24:34.940 Of course that's arc and canada. 24:34.940 --> 24:37.220 And if there's one player that you don't want to run into 24:37.220 --> 24:39.940 in the early mid game, it's gotta be canada, man. 24:39.940 --> 24:44.620 Yeah, I have bad flashbacks to canada and agents 24:44.620 --> 24:46.940 contestant Thomas and Malibuco many years ago 24:46.940 --> 24:47.780 right at global. 24:47.780 --> 24:51.180 So canada is a proven great off-spawn player. 24:51.180 --> 24:52.100 Okay, all right. 24:52.100 --> 24:55.940 Well, guess what? We've got Frankie standing by right now with pretty twi. 24:55.940 --> 24:57.940 What are they thinking right now? 24:57.940 --> 25:02.260 I could ask them that and I'm going to ask them to answer some of my questions 25:02.260 --> 25:05.100 about what's going to be happening at Larte landing. 25:05.100 --> 25:06.660 Currently, it's looking like you're uncontested. 25:06.660 --> 25:08.700 Are you confident that's remaining the case? 25:08.700 --> 25:10.020 Oh, yeah. I think we're on call. 25:10.020 --> 25:12.780 I think we've got a good chance to win and, yeah. 25:12.780 --> 25:16.780 Do you have any concerns about Ark and Canada playing you a visit? 25:16.780 --> 25:18.980 No. I think we're good. I think they're scared of us. 25:18.980 --> 25:20.220 I think we're good off the wall. 25:20.220 --> 25:23.020 And why do you think people are so scared of you right now, Twy? 25:23.020 --> 25:27.900 I mean, I'm first on every kinch, that every time I play, I play to kill. 25:27.900 --> 25:31.020 And yet, people seem to underrate you. 25:31.020 --> 25:34.100 I mean, I wouldn't say so anymore for going into this weekend. 25:34.100 --> 25:37.100 Yeah, definitely, they don't think we're going to win, but we'll prove them wrong. 25:37.100 --> 25:40.500 I wonder if that's anything to do with what happened on day two of major two, 25:40.500 --> 25:44.740 because you were sailing through day one, so what happened on day two? 25:44.740 --> 25:47.620 Day two, we got caught by a couple more teams, so it was a bit harder. 25:47.620 --> 25:52.260 But we eventually found ourselves doing it again, so we'll just have to adapt and... 25:53.260 --> 25:55.700 And how confident are you in your off-sport abilities? 25:55.700 --> 26:00.860 Because we don't really know exactly what's going to happen when we go into game one. 26:00.860 --> 26:05.620 There are always rumours flying around that people are dropping where we don't expect them to. 26:06.180 --> 26:10.060 So for you, how do you prep for a situation that you're not expecting? 26:10.580 --> 26:11.700 I mean, we just take how it comes. 26:11.700 --> 26:15.820 Like, every game we just have to adapt and play differently and see what happens. 26:15.820 --> 26:18.540 And tell me now about adapting to the low ground in your end games. 26:18.540 --> 26:23.260 I mean, the Div Cup results have shown that you do phenomenally well on the low ground. 26:23.260 --> 26:25.620 Doing a bit of Sky and Skrull action there. 26:25.620 --> 26:27.500 Why is that something that's so comfortable for you 26:27.500 --> 26:29.540 when so many other teams are fighting for hype? 26:29.540 --> 26:32.540 Well, low ground is easier and it's easier to get kills as well. 26:32.540 --> 26:36.140 So we play for eliminations because we're not as good as all these smart low ground players. 26:36.140 --> 26:38.620 But as long as we get the kills to match it up, it's all good. 26:38.620 --> 26:42.740 But do you think, though, that a low ground team can actually win the global championship? 26:42.740 --> 26:44.740 Yeah, 100%. Sky and Skrull should have won the last one 26:44.740 --> 26:46.020 and we plan on wearing this one. 26:46.020 --> 26:48.180 OK, well, let's see what these guys can get done 26:48.180 --> 26:49.620 from the low Grand Zeke. 26:49.620 --> 26:51.620 Ha-ha-ha. 26:51.620 --> 26:52.900 I love it. I love it. 26:52.900 --> 26:54.980 That's what I want to hear from my boys, you know what I'm saying? 26:54.980 --> 26:57.740 They know their strengths, they want to play to it. 26:57.740 --> 26:59.580 Look, I knew Ty was special 26:59.580 --> 27:01.820 when he was qualified for Grand Finals with Jalen. 27:01.820 --> 27:04.340 Shout out to my brother Jalen wherever he is in 2026. 27:04.340 --> 27:05.620 He's been about for a while. 27:05.620 --> 27:07.900 Cringes especially over the past year. 27:07.900 --> 27:10.180 Any solo competition that there was, 27:10.180 --> 27:11.820 you'd see his name up there in the standings. 27:11.820 --> 27:14.420 He's been proven he's a top player. 27:14.420 --> 27:19.180 I've seen them so confident, going into their first globals here together. I'm very optimistic. 27:19.180 --> 27:23.880 I love that. Okay, let's talk about another duo, Kami and Hari. 27:23.880 --> 27:30.740 Kind of like a little bit of underdog. Is it sleeper? I don't know where that is, but often underrated, Levin? 27:30.740 --> 27:34.580 Yeah, unfortunately, I think it's always just a bit of a boring pick. 27:34.580 --> 27:38.060 I mean, you know what to expect from Kami on these stages. 27:38.060 --> 27:40.580 Historically, he's just been one of the better players. 27:40.580 --> 27:43.940 He's able to pull results out of nowhere, even when people aren't predicting him. 27:43.940 --> 27:47.260 You look at last year in shrills, how well they were able to do. 27:47.260 --> 27:49.420 And I think what's amazing about these two 27:49.420 --> 27:53.100 is yes, we know they're more than no elimination team, right? 27:53.100 --> 27:54.780 They're not a team that's going to be, you know, 27:54.780 --> 27:56.500 fragging W key in everybody. 27:56.500 --> 27:59.300 But if they need something, Hari. 27:59.300 --> 28:01.380 Hari has a bit of a something that I think 28:01.380 --> 28:02.460 goes a bit underrated. 28:02.460 --> 28:05.340 I think he's one of the smarter fraggers out there. 28:05.340 --> 28:07.220 One of the players who doesn't make too many mistakes 28:07.220 --> 28:08.020 in the end game. 28:08.020 --> 28:10.420 Hari I think is going to be a big key to their success 28:10.420 --> 28:10.900 today. 28:10.900 --> 28:13.820 And that is going to be so important in today. 28:13.820 --> 28:19.180 tomorrow's games because Ari and Kami are surrounded by some of the craziest fighters that you could 28:19.180 --> 28:24.780 potentially go up against. You got Cole, Arc, Josh, French, Venno, Pixie that are all literally 28:24.780 --> 28:28.780 neighboring their drop spot. If anyone needs to be smart about the fights that they're taking 28:28.780 --> 28:33.660 while their rotations are going on, it's this duo right here. I mean, dude, I just feel like 28:33.660 --> 28:37.580 anytime I see Kami's face, I'm like, dude, that guy's going to win something. Something's 28:37.580 --> 28:43.420 just gonna happen, but you know, Lev to come back to it, obviously he has experience. Yeah. 28:43.420 --> 28:47.580 And we saw how heavy those points are over on eliminations. 28:48.340 --> 28:51.180 Could they find that group to find those eliminations? 28:51.180 --> 28:52.820 Is that all just on the back of Hari? 28:53.460 --> 28:55.460 No, I think it's just up the back of consistency. 28:55.460 --> 28:58.340 This is a team who, you know, they're making almost every endgame, right? 28:58.340 --> 29:01.620 I think the only thing that really I think is a weakness for them 29:01.620 --> 29:06.580 is that there's certain zone pools where their game plan just can't work, right? 29:06.580 --> 29:08.620 They're going to have to figure something out there. 29:08.620 --> 29:12.020 But some decent zones across the 12 games and they're just to me, 29:12.020 --> 29:19.060 I like that listen listen I want to give some other regions some love 29:19.060 --> 29:23.500 okay we gotta why don't we come back to a smaller region is there a duo from a 29:23.500 --> 29:28.180 small region both you guys are excited to see Lev what about you smaller you 29:28.180 --> 29:32.460 know we can't let me cancel his best colors the smaller region let's go 29:32.460 --> 29:37.980 canada right you know let's play you know I mean the canada is an easy 29:37.980 --> 29:43.020 choice a bit of a cop out for me I know. But plenty of experience has done well on this stage. 29:43.020 --> 29:48.060 I'm looking at his teammate though. I'm looking at Ark. The last time we saw Canada on an FNCS 29:48.060 --> 29:52.540 stage obviously he was playing with Victor V and he was the best NA player at EWC in the reload right? 29:52.540 --> 29:56.780 Yeah. This time around I think he's got the chance to do it again with Ark by his side. 29:56.780 --> 30:00.460 Shout to Ark. Ark obviously had a bit of an up and down year. He looked incredible last year 30:00.460 --> 30:04.300 at Globals. We thought it was going to be the year of Ark. He's going to dominate. Spent 30:04.300 --> 30:07.900 half the year playing with Lacey, shout to Lacey every year, but I don't think he was 30:07.900 --> 30:12.100 learning too much playing with Lacey. Back with Kanata, top experienced player, I think 30:12.100 --> 30:13.100 he's going to do him some good. 30:13.100 --> 30:17.060 You say Kanata was the best performing NA player in EWC. He was also one of the best 30:17.060 --> 30:21.300 performing NA players at the last lovels in the season. So yeah, man, everyone kind 30:21.300 --> 30:24.740 of, you know, because he's no longer 31 out of 31. I don't know, Kanata's washed 30:24.740 --> 30:28.620 now, man. Kanata can still easily come out as the top NA player here. 30:28.620 --> 30:31.740 They go. Okay. What about you, Kelly? Do you have a smaller region deal you'd 30:31.740 --> 30:32.740 like to highlight? 30:32.740 --> 30:34.540 Can I highlight all the regions? 30:34.540 --> 30:35.300 Well, no. 30:35.300 --> 30:36.900 How much time do I have? 30:36.900 --> 30:38.340 Production? 30:38.340 --> 30:38.860 30 seconds. 30:38.860 --> 30:39.620 80 seconds. 30:39.620 --> 30:40.120 Perfect. 30:40.120 --> 30:40.620 11. 30:40.620 --> 30:41.120 What? 30:41.120 --> 30:41.580 You hold on to this. 30:41.580 --> 30:42.820 Around the world in 80 seconds, 30:42.820 --> 30:44.380 let's start the timer production. 30:44.380 --> 30:45.780 So let's start off with Asia. 30:45.780 --> 30:47.340 Obviously, we all know Coyota and Yuma. 30:47.340 --> 30:49.300 Coyota called the Peterbot of Asia. 30:49.300 --> 30:51.540 But more recently, all eyes have been on Minipio 30:51.540 --> 30:54.060 and Kuklu, especially after the performance at EWC, 30:54.060 --> 30:56.540 where we saw them win a game during the group stages. 30:56.540 --> 30:59.500 Now, we got to talk about a region that is down and under. 30:59.500 --> 31:00.420 That's right, everyone. 31:00.420 --> 31:01.300 Brazil. 31:01.300 --> 31:02.340 Now, they're down to fight. 31:02.340 --> 31:03.860 and they are underestimated. 31:03.860 --> 31:06.100 It's all been about Lula and Romero for me though. 31:06.100 --> 31:08.020 They are the new Argentinian kings 31:08.020 --> 31:10.620 of the Brazilian region that encompasses all of South America. 31:10.620 --> 31:12.860 But also we have to focus on GRX and Brandu 31:12.860 --> 31:14.900 and they were able to take down the likes of King and Phaesar 31:14.900 --> 31:17.260 and Knight and Gon in the last chance major. 31:17.260 --> 31:19.540 Now obviously we've got to talk about my favorite region, 31:19.540 --> 31:21.020 my home region, N.A. West. 31:21.020 --> 31:22.660 Freak up the likes of Epic Whale and Pump, 31:22.660 --> 31:24.620 Arc and Canada or at least I thought we'd be working 31:24.620 --> 31:26.300 40 seconds Kelly. 31:26.300 --> 31:27.620 Because we have Phoenix and Brecho 31:27.620 --> 31:30.420 and they have been looking pretty dang good in N.A. West 31:30.420 --> 31:42.420 the last last dip cuff they got first place almost 200 points over second place now out of OCE we have three teams to talk about but the one team that I do need to talk about is resigns and tinkia and it's pretty obvious to see why because they had such 31:42.420 --> 31:56.420 a good performance at the summit land they were able to put a game in the EU powerhouses and speaking about performing well at land well guys we have to talk about Salvatore representing the Middle East region with his player Mchari but of course we're going to focus on Salvatore 31:56.420 --> 31:59.500 because he had such a great performance during the reload release series finals. 31:59.500 --> 32:03.940 He was taking height, kicking games, and now looking to take that momentum here at the global stage. 32:07.140 --> 32:10.540 Ladies and gentlemen, Kelly Lee face of the watch, Kelly Lee! 32:10.860 --> 32:13.300 Around the world in 80 seconds! 32:13.620 --> 32:15.340 Oh my gosh! 32:15.340 --> 32:16.700 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. 32:18.220 --> 32:21.340 You know, we need a moment to catch our breath. 32:21.340 --> 32:24.540 Why don't we go catch up with Minivider and see what he's up to? 32:24.540 --> 32:28.340 I mean, you know, we need to 32:28.340 --> 32:29.540 talk about you this weekend, 32:29.540 --> 32:30.540 but I want to talk about you 32:30.540 --> 32:32.540 sort of historically you are 32:32.540 --> 32:33.540 the most experienced player in 32:33.540 --> 32:34.540 this lobby. Nobody has more 32:34.540 --> 32:35.540 experience than you. I want to 32:35.540 --> 32:36.540 take a look at some of these 32:36.540 --> 32:37.540 stats. First thing before we 32:37.540 --> 32:38.540 get into that, what's the 32:38.540 --> 32:39.540 secret about looking good 32:39.540 --> 32:43.540 info is a little like, little 32:43.540 --> 32:45.540 I got the little jarline. It's 32:45.540 --> 32:47.540 always about the line. So let's 32:47.540 --> 32:49.540 take a look at the right side. 32:49.540 --> 32:50.540 So let's take a look at the 32:50.540 --> 32:51.540 right side. Let's take a 32:51.540 --> 32:53.540 look at the right side. Let's 32:53.540 --> 32:58.860 the right side 30 out 31 FNCS finals. What is the secret to longevity in 32:58.860 --> 33:02.420 fortnight as well? I think the longevity I think it's mentality right like you 33:02.420 --> 33:05.780 want to know how you're thinking you want to make sure you're the best player 33:05.780 --> 33:09.020 you want to make sure that nothing's getting in your way right you might have 33:09.020 --> 33:11.840 a bad game you might have a bad tournament but don't let that beat you 33:11.840 --> 33:14.900 down you know you got to get back up you got to think you're gonna do it and 33:14.900 --> 33:18.420 you're gonna let it happen. Where's the wisdom motivation? I love this look at 33:18.420 --> 33:22.460 this first FNCS final way back 29 scene chapter 1 season so long ago. So long ago. 33:22.460 --> 33:24.460 I mean, I don't know if I've 33:24.460 --> 33:25.460 ever been in a game where you 33:25.460 --> 33:26.460 have to be the best fighter in 33:26.460 --> 33:28.460 the world. You remember it? Yes. 33:28.460 --> 33:30.460 I actually like it was yesterday. 33:30.460 --> 33:32.460 I love you. You would see 33:32.460 --> 33:34.460 for the gap, right? But still 33:34.460 --> 33:36.460 even last year at global 33:36.460 --> 33:38.460 championships. Yeah, 20 25. 33:38.460 --> 33:39.460 Your best land placement was 33:39.460 --> 33:40.460 fit. How do you still do it 33:40.460 --> 33:42.460 now at this level in what like 33:42.460 --> 33:44.460 seven years later? I mean, to 33:44.460 --> 33:46.460 be honest, like it's about 33:46.460 --> 33:47.460 understanding the game. A lot 33:47.460 --> 33:49.460 of people focus on mechanics 33:49.460 --> 33:51.460 aim trying to become the best 33:51.460 --> 34:13.460 being the smartest player. It's so important. Yeah, I mean, that's why you two time fncs champ. Now let's take a look at this weekend, how things are panning out. We're taking a little look sort of at the drop spot situation. Of course, you guys are landing up towards the sort of northwest of this area. First of all, how do you think this reality is rain of spawn is going to play out near to here? Dude, I have no clue. All I know is I talked to Peter. He's like, I'm just playing like sky and 34:13.460 --> 34:15.460 the game. And the game was 34:15.460 --> 34:16.460 really really really really 34:16.460 --> 34:17.460 interesting. And so the 34:17.460 --> 34:18.460 team is really really 34:18.460 --> 34:19.460 interesting. The sky and 34:19.460 --> 34:20.460 scroll was saying that they 34:20.460 --> 34:22.460 were going to just 50 50 and 34:22.460 --> 34:23.460 then salad tour like he might 34:23.460 --> 34:24.460 have a little sneaky clean up 34:24.460 --> 34:25.460 or they might just three way 34:25.460 --> 34:27.460 split it and just play for 34:27.460 --> 34:28.460 like loot on the outside or 34:28.460 --> 34:29.460 going for like lurks on 34:29.460 --> 34:30.460 other teams. Yeah, now the 34:30.460 --> 34:31.460 team next door. So you 34:31.460 --> 34:32.460 cringe and fly. We know 34:32.460 --> 34:33.460 they like to sort of play 34:33.460 --> 34:34.460 this area. We just spoke to 34:34.460 --> 34:35.460 cringe and fly. They 34:35.460 --> 34:37.460 reckon that you are 34:37.460 --> 34:39.460 scared of King. That is 34:39.460 --> 34:40.460 so crazy. They said that 34:40.460 --> 34:41.460 because we just played a 34:41.460 --> 34:42.460 rehearsal game and we were 34:42.460 --> 34:45.700 to hear what I have to say because he was so scared that he didn't know he 34:45.700 --> 34:50.500 wanted to know what I was doing so bad you hear that cringe and why the fight 34:50.500 --> 34:53.340 thing was from canada right here thank you so much for doing this as well 34:53.340 --> 34:57.700 canada can't wait to see you perform today sir now let's get back to the desk 34:57.700 --> 35:01.580 thank you so much minivan minor and shout out to canada thank you so much 35:01.580 --> 35:05.860 for your time here before the competition man you know obviously I'd 35:05.860 --> 35:09.460 love to hear from canada and all of his insight but I can't lie I was 35:09.460 --> 35:16.020 just looking at that drop app and I'm just thinking what are we doing here? We're in a triple contested 35:16.020 --> 35:23.540 situation. Peter, Bob, Pollo, Sky and Skrull and of course Salvatore there as well. Friends, talk us 35:23.540 --> 35:27.220 through this. What are we going to be seeing? I mean, listen, Raleigh's rain is one of the best 35:27.220 --> 35:31.300 POIs. So it makes sense that we would have a lot of our top teams try to go for that POI and 35:31.300 --> 35:34.740 obviously with them being different regions, they haven't had to face each other. But I 35:34.740 --> 35:39.060 think there was a little bit of an expectation that maybe one out of these three duos would 35:39.060 --> 35:44.120 believe, especially once we did get here to global championships where there was a bit of a discussion, even kind of 35:44.380 --> 35:54.020 watching Sky and Sprawl kind of follow Peter Bot and Sharia and Salvatore around, you would think that one of them would drop, but Levin, I have doubts, I'm wondering if we're going to see all three teams fight here. 35:54.060 --> 36:05.740 Yeah, look, I've heard from some people, some of my inside sources discussing that and Sharia and Salvatore may leave. And I think they're so good as players that hopefully they realize that what is better off for them to leave, right? 36:05.740 --> 36:06.940 and go contest some of them. 36:06.940 --> 36:09.380 They had a better chance in the weekend that way. 36:09.380 --> 36:11.860 And then, you know, contested Skyon scrolled Pete and boy. 36:11.860 --> 36:14.860 I think it's so rough because I think you look at both those teams 36:14.860 --> 36:17.700 and they've been two of the key protagonists in fortnight 36:17.700 --> 36:18.940 across their regions, right? 36:18.940 --> 36:21.460 Skyon scores being the team that has dominated EU, 36:21.460 --> 36:23.180 winning both majors there. 36:23.180 --> 36:25.620 Pete and boy, of course, just the main characters of fortnight. 36:25.620 --> 36:28.060 You've got the greatest players of all time there. 36:28.060 --> 36:30.460 We want to see these guys full throttle, 36:30.460 --> 36:33.180 playing at their best, getting the opportunity to play 12 games out. 36:33.180 --> 36:35.340 And there's a word that we use a lot with Pollo and Peterbot. 36:35.340 --> 36:36.380 and that is conditioning. 36:36.380 --> 36:38.620 And obviously it was a little bit more during chapter five, 36:38.620 --> 36:40.660 but they have been able to condition the lobby 36:40.660 --> 36:42.060 to kind of just force and bully 36:42.060 --> 36:43.340 and do anything that they want, 36:43.340 --> 36:44.900 whatever POI they want, they get. 36:44.900 --> 36:45.740 If they want to take height, 36:45.740 --> 36:47.060 no one's gonna even look for it. 36:47.060 --> 36:49.260 But something's kind of changed, obviously. 36:49.260 --> 36:51.100 Their major performances hasn't been that great. 36:51.100 --> 36:53.460 We did get to see a great performance out of the summit land, 36:53.460 --> 36:56.420 but that kind of intimidation factor 36:56.420 --> 36:57.380 is no longer there. 36:57.380 --> 36:58.300 And sky and sprawl, 36:58.300 --> 36:59.420 they're not gonna be intimidated 36:59.420 --> 37:01.500 by Peterbaugh and Boyle. 37:01.500 --> 37:02.340 I'm so nervous. 37:02.340 --> 37:03.180 I can't even lie. 37:03.180 --> 37:08.840 Obviously I hope this doesn't stay triple contested, but I guess game one will reveal all for us now 37:09.340 --> 37:14.960 Obviously, I would like to ask you both a for a do it specifically that maybe has something to prove being here on land 37:15.540 --> 37:18.020 Kelly I don't trust you right now. So I'm gonna come to Levin first 37:18.280 --> 37:21.560 Levin, what's it to you feel like maybe has something to prove? 37:21.560 --> 37:25.400 Well, that was a mistake because I'm actually gonna steal from Kenny and I want to buy more than one 37:25.400 --> 37:32.320 Well, if I told it to my whole region, I mean, I'm just tired of you any people all of you any people that sit there and tell me 37:32.320 --> 37:38.300 Yeah, and it's the best region based on what I mean if we look at the last land winners, right the last five man winners 37:38.440 --> 37:41.760 Vika Malabuca, Swizzing Creasy Mustache obviously at Global Zasha 37:41.760 --> 37:46.560 We're lucky we didn't actually include EWC that land because that one would have made it look even worse 37:47.080 --> 37:50.480 Back in the day when you'd argue with any fans you would say yeah 37:50.720 --> 37:56.520 EWC was like the whole top five just one NA duo happened to win the whole event and I had to just hear that 37:56.520 --> 37:58.440 I had to take that to say you know what at least you guys won the event 37:58.440 --> 38:00.740 Yeah, we dominated the rest of me the book, but you've got the win 38:10.120 --> 38:16.040 Kelly listen, I know you have the power to fight passion against his passion, but I have to bring in a ringer 38:16.120 --> 38:23.160 Okay, I've got to bring in someone else that has just as much passion is living to K.

I also picked an A to you 39:42.320 --> 39:44.400 God it don't feel like I should pick someone else 39:44.400 --> 39:47.800 But this isn't a team that needs to prove because they're doing poorly 39:47.800 --> 39:52.400 In fact, I think that they're doing so well that I want them to prove the haters and the doubters wrong 39:52.400 --> 39:54.960 And it's going to be clicks and rapid. 39:54.960 --> 39:57.040 Listen, I know I talk about them a lot, 39:57.040 --> 39:59.000 but for this season, this is the best 39:59.000 --> 40:00.880 that I have ever seen clicks. 40:00.880 --> 40:02.840 Look, we start with major one, 40:02.840 --> 40:04.160 where Rapids playing with Colton. 40:04.160 --> 40:05.960 He has such a good performance. 40:05.960 --> 40:08.360 And then major two clicks and rapid join together. 40:08.360 --> 40:10.600 And it's a big question mark on how they're gonna do. 40:10.600 --> 40:12.440 And it kind of seems that they're floundering. 40:12.440 --> 40:14.280 The edgy flows just aren't there. 40:14.280 --> 40:16.200 But then we get into this new season 40:16.200 --> 40:17.920 and there is just something different 40:17.920 --> 40:19.440 about clicks, his mentality, 40:19.440 --> 40:21.760 the focus of what he's prioritizing 40:21.760 --> 40:23.360 for this global championship. 40:23.360 --> 40:25.400 I just think more now than ever, 40:25.400 --> 40:28.520 they have so much to prove to all the doubters here. 40:28.520 --> 40:29.360 Absolutely. 40:29.360 --> 40:31.080 We're gonna need the Clicks fans to rise. 40:31.080 --> 40:31.920 To rise up. 40:31.920 --> 40:33.240 To rise this whole weekend. 40:33.240 --> 40:34.280 They're gonna need it. 40:34.280 --> 40:35.920 It's kind of funny because, yeah, 40:35.920 --> 40:38.440 things actually shaping up really nicely for them. 40:38.440 --> 40:39.960 Yet, it doesn't actually feel like 40:39.960 --> 40:41.120 there's as much pressure. 40:41.120 --> 40:41.960 Right, I feel like in the past, 40:41.960 --> 40:43.360 maybe there's been a bit more hyper 40:43.360 --> 40:44.960 on Clicks going into the Globals. 40:44.960 --> 40:45.800 Yeah. 40:45.800 --> 40:48.280 It makes you look set up to be very successful. 40:48.280 --> 40:50.120 I think we know what to expect out of Clicks 40:50.120 --> 40:50.960 more or less. 40:50.960 --> 40:52.760 I've seen him on the stage so many times. 40:52.760 --> 40:55.360 I'm looking at Rapid as a difference maker here. 40:55.360 --> 40:56.360 Let's talk about it. 40:56.360 --> 40:59.160 EWC, reloading these series finals. 40:59.160 --> 41:00.520 It didn't go too well for Rapid. 41:00.520 --> 41:01.880 He was playing with colds. 41:01.880 --> 41:03.120 I love colds, that's my brother, 41:03.120 --> 41:05.360 but he kind of threw Rapid under the bus a little bit. 41:05.360 --> 41:08.280 You know, Rapid stocks were kind of looking at it. 41:08.280 --> 41:09.120 He has a lot to prove. 41:09.120 --> 41:10.760 I think if I'm Rapid coming into this event, 41:10.760 --> 41:12.080 I'm like, no, no, no, I need to show people. 41:12.080 --> 41:12.920 I'm not a dad. 41:12.920 --> 41:15.240 You know, whatever other brothers are trying to tell you, 41:15.240 --> 41:16.080 I'm not a dad. 41:16.080 --> 41:16.920 I'm that guy. 41:16.920 --> 41:18.960 And he has a history of success on this stage. 41:18.960 --> 41:20.040 You look at last year. 41:20.040 --> 41:21.440 He was playing with Canado and Bolts, 41:21.440 --> 41:23.120 they were bossing it right, the winning games. 41:23.120 --> 41:25.960 I think he has shown that he can perform on the stage. 41:25.960 --> 41:28.400 I'm hoping Rapid can bring his A game 41:28.400 --> 41:29.960 and lead Clicks to victory. 41:29.960 --> 41:31.920 Interesting, we talked a bit about Rapid, 41:31.920 --> 41:34.080 but I kind of wanted to go back to Clicks, obviously, 41:34.080 --> 41:36.520 kind of in these types of circumstances. 41:36.520 --> 41:38.720 Clicks has sometimes been known 41:38.720 --> 41:41.740 to kind of crumble under the type of pressure. 41:41.740 --> 41:44.160 This is the biggest stage, right? 41:44.160 --> 41:46.480 How do we expect him to do? 41:46.480 --> 41:49.000 I, again, just by watching his streams recently, 41:49.000 --> 41:54.520 or say his lack of streams actually has been that prioritization where maybe you know he's 41:54.520 --> 41:58.520 a content creator and a pro player, but he wants to focus on the global championship. 41:58.520 --> 42:02.920 He's not caring about kind of his content right now because he wants to prove everyone. 42:02.920 --> 42:07.920 And so, I don't know, for me, Klick, I know he's like a very emotional player when we 42:07.920 --> 42:11.600 saw him play with Venno, who was a bit of a harsher IGL. 42:11.600 --> 42:14.320 And then we saw him play with Higgs where the two of them were kind of crashed 42:14.320 --> 42:15.320 out together. 42:15.320 --> 42:18.320 I think that there is just a new maturity in Klick right now, especially playing with 42:18.320 --> 42:21.660 something like rapid where that crash out just isn't going to be as likely. 42:22.660 --> 42:23.060 What do you think? 42:23.060 --> 42:23.740 Love, what do you think? 42:23.740 --> 42:25.780 No, the reality is I got a lot of love for clicks. 42:25.780 --> 42:29.360 I think to do what he's done at the highest level performing while also doing 42:29.360 --> 42:32.620 content at the highest level for as long as he has nobody else considered 42:32.620 --> 42:36.220 done that. The reality is, is people want to see clicks get a job done. 42:36.220 --> 42:38.860 Finally, we've been waiting for some time. 42:38.860 --> 42:39.980 It's a bit overdue. 42:39.980 --> 42:44.220 I'm hoping he surprises us today with one of his best performances yet. 42:44.460 --> 42:46.520 Yeah. And of course, and obviously we're not trying to be hyper critical, 42:46.520 --> 42:49.400 But this is the biggest stage in the world right in terms of Fortnite. 42:49.400 --> 42:52.120 So we have to be critical in those moments. 42:52.120 --> 42:54.160 But this is it to I mean, look, it's clicks. 42:54.160 --> 42:56.280 Clicks fans rise up big time here. 42:56.280 --> 42:58.240 He needs y'all this weekend. 42:58.240 --> 43:00.600 We're getting closer to kicking off the competition. 43:00.600 --> 43:04.000 I mean, obviously being in this crowd, hearing them all or there's so 43:04.000 --> 43:05.640 many different components as well. 43:05.640 --> 43:08.960 We've got streamers up here, co streamers who are all doing their thing. 43:08.960 --> 43:10.440 Having a great time up there. 43:10.440 --> 43:11.800 We could see some of them. 43:11.800 --> 43:12.720 They're getting excited. 43:12.720 --> 43:15.520 How are you guys feeling now that we're kind of in it? 43:15.520 --> 43:18.400 I am so ready. And this is still just day number one. 43:18.400 --> 43:21.120 We honestly don't even know where all these teams are going to be landing. 43:21.120 --> 43:23.480 So much can change the way that these players have been rotating. 43:23.480 --> 43:27.160 I mean, just the way that a Fortnite had been evolving to playing in Storm. 43:27.160 --> 43:29.160 Are we going to see a lot of these teams play in Storm? 43:29.160 --> 43:32.000 The way that we've had so many changes to Storm's third. 43:32.000 --> 43:35.000 How are these players going to now adapt to that in this kind of setting? 43:35.440 --> 43:36.480 We can't predict anything. 43:36.480 --> 43:39.120 We can talk all day and yack up here and say, oh, this is going to happen. 43:39.560 --> 43:40.120 You don't know. 43:40.120 --> 43:43.040 The only thing you can predict in Fortnite is that it is unpredictable. 43:43.040 --> 43:45.560 The reality is, this game one is only a teaser, right? 43:45.560 --> 43:49.440 We've been speaking for the years how things switch up after game one, right? 43:49.440 --> 43:52.480 Somebody might decide, actually, though, you know, we're gonna land here. 43:52.480 --> 43:54.480 Let's go to our backup option. Let's switch things on. 43:54.480 --> 43:56.480 Let's rotate this way. Let's fight this team. 43:56.480 --> 43:58.960 It just gets crazier and crazier and crazier. 43:58.960 --> 44:00.560 We obviously learn a lot about these players. 44:00.560 --> 44:04.200 We learn a lot about how much this crowd loves certain players, which I'm on. 44:04.200 --> 44:05.800 And the players don't like as well, you know? 44:05.800 --> 44:07.800 There's not a bit of a balance to that, you know? 44:07.800 --> 44:09.400 You know, you love someone, you hate somebody else. 44:09.400 --> 44:15.720 I think we'll learn a lot about about globals and the state of competitive this weekend. Yeah, and of course can't forget 44:15.720 --> 44:18.200 It is a two-day format, right? So after these six games 44:18.200 --> 44:23.800 We'll have the players have tonight to kind of go back bottom view and maybe make some changes going into tomorrow 44:24.000 --> 44:28.880 So man, I'm excited. I'm so hyped. This is our favorite time of the year 44:28.880 --> 44:32.480 But for now, why don't we go hang out with Frankie see what she's got for us? 44:32.480 --> 44:40.480 Thank you so much, Zeke. Now, remember, everyone, there's just 12 games here before we crown a global champion. 44:40.480 --> 44:44.480 There's no upper or lower bracket. There's no second chances here. 44:44.480 --> 44:50.480 So, Antwerp, all of these players need to know that you're behind them. 44:50.480 --> 44:52.480 Are you ready to meet some players? 44:55.480 --> 44:58.480 Now, my friends on the desk where we're talking about North America, 44:58.480 --> 45:02.640 America but we've got so many other regions who you're about to meet on this 45:02.640 --> 45:07.800 day so please one more time and make some noise! 45:14.280 --> 45:24.080 Back to back majors make them kings of the EU but can Sky Ants growl take the throne with the whole world watching! 45:24.080 --> 45:41.280 They will get lost in the spotlight, lost the hands they owe for fighting the blue minted 45:41.280 --> 45:42.280 champions. 45:42.280 --> 46:04.280 It's not going to make an impact on the biggest stage Fortnite has to offer. 46:04.280 --> 46:28.640 It's King and Prey's aggression and fire powers the name of the game, and they look 46:28.640 --> 46:30.640 run through the competition. 46:34.640 --> 46:36.640 Get left for Mack and the Gitter! 46:36.640 --> 46:38.640 No matter the loving difficulty, 46:38.640 --> 46:41.640 these guys are sure to show up and show out. 46:44.640 --> 46:47.640 They've run it all year for this moment, 46:47.640 --> 46:49.640 but the end missed you all year 46:49.640 --> 46:51.640 and they're ready to put it all on the line. 46:51.640 --> 47:17.640 Sky and Skrull, we need to talk about reality's reign. Peter Bottenboyo, Mshari, and Salvatore. 47:17.640 --> 47:20.040 We know that they're planning on dropping there too. 47:20.040 --> 47:21.480 Why aren't you moving? 47:22.760 --> 47:24.200 We've been there since day one. 47:24.200 --> 47:27.240 We were the first team that marked and then it's hard to land on us. 47:27.240 --> 47:30.120 So we didn't really have a joint, jokes. 47:30.120 --> 47:33.320 And how does that impact the way that you plan for this game, Sky? 47:34.440 --> 47:36.440 I mean, if we've been working on it for weeks, 47:36.440 --> 47:37.720 what are we going to do when we're planned, 47:37.720 --> 47:38.920 what are we going to do when we win? 47:39.640 --> 47:41.880 And yeah, we'll just see how it goes. 47:41.880 --> 47:44.520 And for all this training, do you think that you are 47:44.520 --> 47:46.520 one of the best off-soul players here? 47:46.520 --> 47:50.520 Yeah, I think for sure we're the best soul form team here in Riga. 47:50.520 --> 47:54.520 Well, we're going to see if all that teamwork and practice has paid off. 47:54.520 --> 47:57.520 But right now let's head over to Levin with Darm and Dimas. 47:57.520 --> 48:02.520 Thank you very much, Frankie.

I believe you, because you're two hard workers. 48:24.520 --> 48:29.520 Obviously, it looks like you're contested right now.

I love to see that. Yeah, I mean it's great 01:11:05.220 --> 01:11:08.760 I look at because example right people was like a scrappy little kid 01:11:08.760 --> 01:11:11.600 You know, you so yeah, you know, you know, it's always like a two-year-old 01:11:11.600 --> 01:11:13.600 Revvin up and he just keeps going 01:11:13.600 --> 01:11:18.360 And now he's a 19-year-old. He's had all the success, but you still see that kid in him. 01:11:18.360 --> 01:11:20.200 He still loves to have fun on that stage, right? 01:11:20.200 --> 01:11:22.600 And I want to see a lot of these players have fun. 01:11:22.600 --> 01:11:26.360 Again, you sort of see people in between, and you see them trying to keep themselves calm, 01:11:26.360 --> 01:11:28.600 keep themselves locked into the moment. 01:11:28.600 --> 01:11:32.920 But the one thing we can all know for certain is, Fortnite is such a reactive game. 01:11:32.920 --> 01:11:33.400 Right. 01:11:33.400 --> 01:11:37.240 And the reason why sometimes you ask these players questions about, like, what's planned? 01:11:37.240 --> 01:11:39.800 Well, most of the time, a lot of them, though, it doesn't matter what's planned. 01:11:39.800 --> 01:11:44.600 I just got to figure things out in the moment as they go as they come into our play. 01:11:44.600 --> 01:11:46.280 So it's it's not easy out there. 01:11:46.280 --> 01:11:49.400 There's also a lot of teams out there that have kind of teased a little bit that they 01:11:49.400 --> 01:11:51.160 have some strategies in their back pocket. 01:11:51.160 --> 01:11:55.640 And there has also been some dialogue on if we've seen some of our teams kind of sandbagging. 01:11:55.640 --> 01:11:58.520 I don't know if that's been the case in EU, but in North America, we've been 01:11:58.520 --> 01:12:02.200 not kind of questioning how if the ages and been on the last dip was kind of just 01:12:02.200 --> 01:12:04.520 going really aggressive, what are they trying to hide there? 01:12:04.520 --> 01:12:08.600 And then of course, we got to talk about Cooper and re landing mid doing such a good 01:12:08.600 --> 01:12:13.400 job and then week one and then for some reason just not performing that we saw them do in week one 01:12:13.400 --> 01:12:18.040 maybe again holding some strategies in their back pocket not wanting to expose too much 01:12:18.040 --> 01:12:22.200 yeah there's almost like this like snapshot we have right now right like and it's kind of like 01:12:22.200 --> 01:12:27.880 the initial plan that we as on the outside it's like hey yeah this is what everyone's planning 01:12:27.880 --> 01:12:32.440 to do it's like hey okay cool but is that what's actually gonna happen in game number one could 01:12:32.440 --> 01:12:36.680 we see Levin touch on it earlier literally anything can happen game two because he's 01:12:36.680 --> 01:12:41.080 something game one game two game three could be completely different like this is the biggest stage 01:12:41.080 --> 01:12:46.760 and when you're trying to earn a title of global champion you can't just kind of do what you've 01:12:46.760 --> 01:12:52.280 been doing maybe some can't but not everyone can. No it's inherent to fortnite in itself where you 01:12:52.280 --> 01:12:56.200 have these changing zones you need to be able to be adaptable and that is something that our 01:12:56.200 --> 01:13:00.600 players have shown time and time again that they have to adapt not just in a tournament 01:13:00.600 --> 01:13:04.200 but throughout the seasons the game will change and the dime will have completely new 01:13:04.200 --> 01:13:06.300 of a couple of weeks right 01:13:06.300 --> 01:13:07.300 before the tournament. 01:13:07.300 --> 01:13:08.400 These players have constantly 01:13:08.400 --> 01:13:10.100 been on the toes of having to 01:13:10.100 --> 01:13:11.600 adapt on the fly. 01:13:11.600 --> 01:13:12.700 And a lot of these teams right 01:13:12.700 --> 01:13:14.000 here are so smart and so 01:13:14.000 --> 01:13:15.500 mechanical, but they also have 01:13:15.500 --> 01:13:16.500 their coaches. 01:13:16.500 --> 01:13:17.500 We've seen a lot of coach 01:13:17.500 --> 01:13:18.500 pushups and everything. 01:13:18.500 --> 01:13:19.500 And you know, those coaches 01:13:19.500 --> 01:13:20.500 are watching right now, and 01:13:20.500 --> 01:13:21.500 they're going to be 01:13:21.500 --> 01:13:22.500 ball reviewing from day one to 01:13:22.500 --> 01:13:23.500 day two. 01:13:23.500 --> 01:13:24.500 It could be a completely 01:13:24.500 --> 01:13:25.500 different story on what 01:13:25.500 --> 01:13:26.500 strategies these players are 01:13:26.500 --> 01:13:27.500 bringing to the table. 01:13:27.500 --> 01:13:30.500 So I just got so locked in 01:13:30.500 --> 01:13:31.500 watching the players there 01:13:31.500 --> 01:13:33.500 just seem to see, you know, 01:13:33.500 --> 01:13:36.260 you know, I'm trying to micro analyze any sort of facial 01:13:38.260 --> 01:13:43.140 It's good to see I just smiling, you know, I think obviously these big questions about his ability to perform 01:13:43.140 --> 01:13:47.200 You know consistently in the biggest moments is playing with a young playing console 01:13:47.200 --> 01:13:50.460 I think that's the thing that we have a lot of questions for these players 01:13:51.380 --> 01:13:57.240 We'll see who comes up with some answers. That's right. Well fortnight fam. I am getting word 01:13:57.240 --> 01:14:01.240 It is almost that time to jump aboard the Battle Bus. 01:14:01.240 --> 01:14:03.240 This is just day number one. 01:14:03.240 --> 01:14:05.240 We have six games ahead of us. 01:14:05.240 --> 01:14:07.240 What do these players have planned? 01:14:07.240 --> 01:14:09.240 It's time to find out. 01:14:09.240 --> 01:14:12.240 Let's go beat up with your casters right now. 01:14:12.240 --> 01:14:14.240 Thank you so much, Zeke. 01:14:14.240 --> 01:14:16.240 This has been an exciting time. 01:14:16.240 --> 01:14:18.240 We're not even here yet at game one, 01:14:18.240 --> 01:14:20.240 but teams from around the world 01:14:20.240 --> 01:14:23.240 spent all year long just to make it to this stage, 01:14:23.240 --> 01:14:25.240 and it's not even done yet. 01:14:25.240 --> 01:14:27.200 Yeah, and one of the toughest things, too, to recognize 01:14:27.200 --> 01:14:28.720 is just everything that's been going down 01:14:28.720 --> 01:14:30.560 inside of the practice room environment. 01:14:30.560 --> 01:14:33.440 Also, we've seen the players have the opportunities 01:14:33.440 --> 01:14:35.400 to kind of interact with each other in person, 01:14:35.400 --> 01:14:37.120 whether it's your duo or not. 01:14:37.120 --> 01:14:38.920 There's always that bit of mind games being played, 01:14:38.920 --> 01:14:41.760 and now we get to see how it all unfolds here in game one. 01:14:41.760 --> 01:14:43.760 Yeah, you mentioned in practice. 01:14:43.760 --> 01:15:03.800 Here it is, reality rain, the most talked about off spawn fight that we have seen in 01:15:03.800 --> 01:15:06.200 such a long time. 01:15:06.200 --> 01:15:10.840 And that's saying some big things because we have some contested fights all around 01:15:10.840 --> 01:15:11.840 the map. 01:15:11.840 --> 01:15:16.560 some drops that players are hoping to split with one another to try to make it to that end game. 01:15:16.560 --> 01:15:21.840 And it's when you get to that end game taco where all the points matter. I mean you get close your 01:15:21.840 --> 01:15:27.040 eyes and throw some darts at the map and I'm sure you're bound to see something you're taking 01:15:27.040 --> 01:15:32.560 place. All of these many mid map contestations are also going to be so problematic for teams 01:15:32.560 --> 01:15:36.960 that are located a little bit more towards that central position. But for right here right now 01:15:36.960 --> 01:15:41.440 We've got to see whether or not that 50-50 actually comes to fruition. 01:15:41.440 --> 01:15:44.720 And who's actually going to be able to make the most of it, but Mshari, I mean, 01:15:44.720 --> 01:15:48.480 trouble already brewing, doesn't even really get the chance to touch down. 01:15:48.480 --> 01:15:51.200 Too many players posing a threat from a distance. 01:15:51.200 --> 01:15:52.160 Yeah, you gotta imagine that. 01:15:52.160 --> 01:15:54.320 Could have been, that could have been Reid, that could have been Cooper. 01:15:54.320 --> 01:15:56.720 They were the ones gliding past that drop spot. 01:15:56.720 --> 01:16:00.400 And it kind of alleviates the pressure of this triple contested fight. 01:16:00.400 --> 01:16:03.360 And it all really depends if they saw it actually happen in the feed. 01:16:03.360 --> 01:16:06.560 You can see it in the minimap, the top left, that revive. 01:16:06.560 --> 01:16:12.120 them. Shari is going to get back into this game. But now they're off to such a slow start 01:16:12.120 --> 01:16:16.560 compared to the rest of the players at their POI. And they're not just any player. This 01:16:16.560 --> 01:16:20.320 is Peter bottom. This is Skye and Skrull. These are some of the best players in their 01:16:20.320 --> 01:16:25.280 region. And essentially Skye, Skrull, they seem to be making the most of the current 01:16:25.280 --> 01:16:30.080 situation. Pete, Koyle though having the opportunity to reunite. So a little bit 01:16:30.080 --> 01:16:33.360 of a swing and a miss there. It seemed as though Skye and Skrull were hoping to 01:16:33.360 --> 01:16:38.440 isolate Peterbot initially, but with the way he's managed to kind of finagle his way out of that last position 01:16:39.040 --> 01:16:42.440 Things are going to sort of simmer out Pete Boyo going to have to 01:16:43.240 --> 01:16:49.680 Recalibrate how they actually want to approach this yeah, and this is kind of something we saw in game two of those practice games yesterday 01:16:49.680 --> 01:16:55.160 Just practice doesn't mean much but Peterbot and Boyo taking a different approach the disengage but fight happening all 01:16:55.720 --> 01:17:01.400 Around the star view where and now are able to take down Gino all of the gates and already 01:17:01.400 --> 01:17:04.040 It's not looking good for Pablo. 01:17:04.040 --> 01:17:07.440 We got two different triple contested fights here, 01:17:07.440 --> 01:17:09.920 and both of them have impacts right out of the game. 01:17:09.920 --> 01:17:12.840 Deja vu right now for Pablo and Chino 01:17:12.840 --> 01:17:15.320 and just dealing with the triple contested POI. 01:17:15.320 --> 01:17:18.160 They have the same situation back during Summit. 01:17:18.160 --> 01:17:21.480 They are very familiarized with what that's going to be like, 01:17:21.480 --> 01:17:23.360 but it's another beast entirely 01:17:23.360 --> 01:17:24.960 when you're actually in the thick of it. 01:17:24.960 --> 01:17:27.400 Still only game one of 12, Jacob, 01:17:27.400 --> 01:17:29.120 and knowing that it's a two-day format, 01:17:29.120 --> 01:17:32.560 You just need to make sure that you can lock in for the rest of these matches. 01:17:32.560 --> 01:17:36.320 Fika Malibuka though, just a walk in the park, they don't really have anything pressing them just yet. 01:17:36.320 --> 01:17:39.840 Pete and Poyo on the other hand though, they want to get active with Jule and Tidy. 01:17:39.840 --> 01:17:43.600 Yeah, they left so early out of reality rain, you know, they're just hunting for loot. 01:17:43.600 --> 01:17:48.240 I think it was Lebanon, maybe it was Kelly, they're breaking it down trying to talk about what they expect to see. 01:17:48.240 --> 01:17:51.600 This right here was one of those possibilities. 01:17:51.600 --> 01:17:54.400 Maybe you can get a little bit more aggressive at the end of the day. 01:17:54.400 --> 01:18:01.000 day two actually fight it out, but Peter Barton Poyle are looking to give themselves a good start to the entire tournament 01:18:01.000 --> 01:18:06.060 But they're going ahead and pushing to a jewel and tidy we're already at they already looted up the top of that mountain 01:18:06.060 --> 01:18:09.380 And I'm trying to do the same thing for themselves finish up their loadout 01:18:09.380 --> 01:18:12.020 You could see missing item slots low on materials 01:18:12.020 --> 01:18:18.080 So this is obviously not the start they were hoping for it's definitely put jewel and tidy into an awkward position because we already saw it there 01:18:18.080 --> 01:18:23.360 Tidy scouting out the facts I is scary not too far away, and if they go just a little bit too close 01:18:23.720 --> 01:18:25.280 That could be the end of it 01:18:25.280 --> 01:18:29.880 They'll get sandwiched between two really solid fighting do us but for came in hurry 01:18:30.440 --> 01:18:32.240 just trying to 01:18:32.240 --> 01:18:39.080 Make sure that they have everything that they need a hurry holding it down currently inside of their surge base a little bit 01:18:39.080 --> 01:18:43.480 That mountainside control is also going to make it rather difficult for Josh any yam 01:18:43.480 --> 01:18:48.000 So to kind of navigate where they're currently fixated because you don't want to get tagged up 01:18:48.000 --> 01:18:49.460 You don't want to give away free search. 01:18:49.460 --> 01:18:50.760 Yeah, it's just one of those things, 01:18:50.760 --> 01:18:53.160 especially with those massive changes that 01:18:53.160 --> 01:18:55.560 came to the start of this year. 01:18:55.560 --> 01:18:58.360 It's damage dealt minus damage taken, 01:18:58.360 --> 01:19:00.720 kind of get to your overall net search. 01:19:00.720 --> 01:19:02.680 So this is why you typically have 01:19:02.680 --> 01:19:04.760 seen team major after major. 01:19:04.760 --> 01:19:08.280 Kind of be welcome to stay in the storm, get those yields. 01:19:08.280 --> 01:19:10.600 And it kind of eliminates the possibility of them 01:19:10.600 --> 01:19:12.080 taking surprise damage. 01:19:12.080 --> 01:19:13.600 But we go for clicks of rapid, 01:19:13.600 --> 01:19:17.120 kind of uncontested on their split to teeny and sharp. 01:19:17.120 --> 01:19:18.760 This is their POI. 01:19:18.760 --> 01:19:21.040 It's Shadow and Virgo that need to watch out 01:19:21.040 --> 01:19:23.360 because they're walking in the enemy territory. 01:19:23.360 --> 01:19:26.480 But Shadow sparks out Teenie, fires the first shot, 01:19:26.480 --> 01:19:28.040 and now it's all gonna break loose. 01:19:28.040 --> 01:19:32.440 That trigger discipline by Teenie ends up biting him back. 01:19:32.440 --> 01:19:36.480 Virgo and Shadow now ready to completely defend 01:19:36.480 --> 01:19:38.120 everything that Teenie and Shark 01:19:38.120 --> 01:19:41.280 had just invested so much time to set up. 01:19:41.280 --> 01:19:42.760 We don't even know whether or not 01:19:42.760 --> 01:19:44.480 they even feel all that positive 01:19:44.480 --> 01:19:45.840 because that material load up, 01:19:45.840 --> 01:19:47.800 Not the strongest there from Teenie and Shark. 01:19:47.800 --> 01:19:50.800 They were clearly anticipating getting that opening shot. 01:19:50.800 --> 01:19:53.640 And since that opportunity has just fizzled on out of Teenie, 01:19:53.640 --> 01:19:56.280 Shark recognizing it might just be better to get out of dodge. 01:19:56.280 --> 01:19:58.920 Yeah, you can even see the kind of lack of mobility. 01:19:58.920 --> 01:20:02.240 Yes, he does have the Sonic, but he used the Shark waves. 01:20:02.240 --> 01:20:05.240 And you see Shark has nothing in his inventory. 01:20:05.240 --> 01:20:06.320 So they might feel pressured. 01:20:06.320 --> 01:20:08.320 Hey, you're coming over to the off territory. 01:20:08.320 --> 01:20:11.120 This is the team that not only knows but loves to fight 01:20:11.120 --> 01:20:14.480 as well, but on the flip side for NA, Shadow and Virgo. 01:20:14.480 --> 01:20:18.640 Remember when they qualified to the global stage, they were fighting. 01:20:18.640 --> 01:20:22.040 They were not only first on the leaderboard to punch their ticket to the Summit Finals, 01:20:22.040 --> 01:20:24.240 but they eventually won a game as well. 01:20:24.240 --> 01:20:26.680 So now they're not a team that's just gonna get pushed over easy. 01:20:27.960 --> 01:20:30.920 Smart though by Virgo and Shadow. 01:20:30.920 --> 01:20:33.280 They're the ones currently extending the invitation, 01:20:33.280 --> 01:20:38.920 trying to force Tini and Shark to actually get up close and comfortable 01:20:38.920 --> 01:20:41.000 because Virgo and Shadow, they got the vending. 01:20:41.000 --> 01:20:43.320 Right now they have the luxury of waiting things out. 01:20:43.320 --> 01:20:44.040 They can stall. 01:20:44.040 --> 01:20:47.480 Portio Pete also caught in a bit of their own mix-up here. 01:20:47.480 --> 01:20:49.040 Both incredibly injured. 01:20:49.040 --> 01:20:51.440 Portio might have an opportunity here to play 01:20:51.440 --> 01:20:53.720 and restore some of that shield, but with Pete having 01:20:53.720 --> 01:20:56.160 to take that defensive, metric, tidy tool, 01:20:56.160 --> 01:20:57.920 they're already looking to press inwards. 01:20:57.920 --> 01:21:00.400 Yeah, it's just a scary fight, but all it takes 01:21:00.400 --> 01:21:03.440 is one shot like that from Pete to try to turn the tables. 01:21:03.440 --> 01:21:06.440 Now he has tidy on the back, but trying to push him back. 01:21:06.440 --> 01:21:08.040 Julie's there as well. 01:21:08.040 --> 01:21:09.520 And now he's just getting detected 01:21:09.520 --> 01:21:11.760 because Peter Bok found the opening of Portio, 01:21:11.760 --> 01:21:14.280 The third party! Ziya takes it down! 01:21:14.280 --> 01:21:17.080 Now it's a 1v1 in this close quarters combat. 01:21:17.080 --> 01:21:19.640 Third party is also closing in! 01:21:19.640 --> 01:21:21.800 And Ziya's in scary, more than content 01:21:21.800 --> 01:21:23.800 to take their sweet time with it. 01:21:23.800 --> 01:21:25.880 They're forcing Pete's hand here. 01:21:25.880 --> 01:21:27.760 Jewel trying to see the complaint for the relic, 01:21:27.760 --> 01:21:29.920 but it's not going to be an option just yet. 01:21:29.920 --> 01:21:31.440 Pete's still pressing. 01:21:31.440 --> 01:21:33.440 Now we're gonna get the ultimate cleanup 01:21:33.440 --> 01:21:35.320 because he knows sooner or later 01:21:35.320 --> 01:21:37.880 the Spaniards are going to get even more directly involved 01:21:37.880 --> 01:21:39.720 but Pete's still doing what he can 01:21:39.720 --> 01:21:43.560 to try and put himself in the best possible position here for a recovery match. 01:21:43.560 --> 01:21:47.860 Now, you know, it's eventually, you know, it's just kind of going for the revive yet again. 01:21:47.860 --> 01:21:49.320 That's exactly what he's trying to attempt. 01:21:49.320 --> 01:21:50.320 But, yeah, he's right. 01:21:50.320 --> 01:21:54.620 To me, the gage, he's playing aggressive, but he trades off a massive shot, 01:21:54.620 --> 01:21:57.660 where it's not too much to worry for Peterbot actually staying alive. 01:21:57.660 --> 01:22:01.820 You see the three medkits, one being used, but he has no extra shield. 01:22:01.820 --> 01:22:04.700 And you got to hope on the other side they have some sort of HP, 01:22:04.700 --> 01:22:08.320 because as soon as the revive started, Choco, he goes right back to it. 01:22:08.320 --> 01:22:14.320 a hundred plus dammit, the first elimination, and he's got to back to keep him in the game! 01:22:14.320 --> 01:22:19.200 And that is the kind of catalyst that someone like Peterbot desperately needed, 01:22:19.200 --> 01:22:23.600 because flashback season, think about what's happened whenever Pete has gone down 01:22:23.600 --> 01:22:28.320 in these opening matches of a LAN environment. It doesn't usually end well for that day, 01:22:28.320 --> 01:22:33.120 Jacob, so desperately needing that one. Now we'll have to wait and see whether or not 01:22:33.120 --> 01:22:35.120 and then they're going to be 01:22:35.120 --> 01:22:37.120 able to get to the top. 01:22:37.120 --> 01:22:38.120 They're going to be able to 01:22:38.120 --> 01:22:39.120 get to the top. 01:22:39.120 --> 01:22:40.120 Not boy is going to eventually 01:22:40.120 --> 01:22:42.120 reboot and how they fare from 01:22:42.120 --> 01:22:43.120 there, but. 01:22:43.120 --> 01:22:45.120 Other teams like ages and 01:22:45.120 --> 01:22:46.120 Venno. 01:22:46.120 --> 01:22:48.120 Getting the opportunity here 01:22:48.120 --> 01:22:50.120 to sort of foster rock. 01:22:50.120 --> 01:22:51.120 Engage whether or not they're 01:22:51.120 --> 01:22:52.120 able to establish enough 01:22:52.120 --> 01:22:53.120 surge against the likes of 01:22:53.120 --> 01:22:54.120 pixie and Swizzing. 01:22:54.120 --> 01:22:56.120 Yeah, you can see early on in 01:22:56.120 --> 01:22:57.120 the mini map. 01:22:57.120 --> 01:22:58.120 You see at the top left or 01:22:58.120 --> 01:22:59.120 the top right. 01:22:59.120 --> 01:23:00.120 I should say that little 01:23:00.120 --> 01:23:01.120 line. 01:23:01.120 --> 01:23:02.120 That's the zone. 01:23:02.120 --> 01:23:07.000 So Venno and Rangers know teams will have to rotate in and around this location. 01:23:07.000 --> 01:23:11.280 So as long as they keep themselves healthy, take themselves away from getting work, they 01:23:11.280 --> 01:23:13.480 should be okay. 01:23:13.480 --> 01:23:15.800 And right now Venno's kind of doing what he does best. 01:23:15.800 --> 01:23:20.120 He's kind of lurking around the map, trying to grab some extra heals, reform those materials 01:23:20.120 --> 01:23:22.200 so that way he can bring it back to that tower. 01:23:22.200 --> 01:23:25.200 So eventually Taco, when they do have to move, they have everything that they 01:23:25.200 --> 01:23:26.200 need. 01:23:26.200 --> 01:23:28.920 It's just so funny though when you think about how Swizzy and Pixie specifically 01:23:28.920 --> 01:23:33.920 tried to play for getting full claims to all the battlewoods throughout those 01:23:33.920 --> 01:23:38.440 online majors and yet here at the global championship recognizing the fact that 01:23:38.440 --> 01:23:42.880 Venno Agers just incredibly strong competitors maybe a split is in our best 01:23:42.880 --> 01:23:47.920 interest but for a team like cold and ritual who are trying to just make 01:23:47.920 --> 01:23:50.480 their way forward these are gonna be a little bit more complicated but Venno 01:23:50.480 --> 01:23:54.280 managing to pull up with a nice elimination there on to Slepsey and 01:23:54.280 --> 01:23:57.280 that's what I put him in the driver's seat against wagers now. Yeah he put in 01:23:57.280 --> 01:24:00.820 work with that learn to get that elimination and now he's just continuing to 01:24:00.820 --> 01:24:04.600 press forward on the wagers and it might seem like he's all alone but 01:24:04.600 --> 01:24:09.080 ages closing that gap realizing maybe this fight more important that we made 01:24:09.080 --> 01:24:12.880 things storm surge will impact our games not only today but throughout the 01:24:12.880 --> 01:24:16.120 weekend so you gotta stay ahead of the pervert right now they're doing more 01:24:16.120 --> 01:24:20.040 than just that waiters almost getting full boxed up multiple times these 01:24:20.040 --> 01:24:23.560 quickly moving through these builds trying to stay alive but it doesn't look 01:24:23.560 --> 01:24:26.180 like ages of Venom aren't going to give up on this play. 01:24:26.180 --> 01:24:28.840 Wagers fighting back, big shot to land on Venom, 01:24:28.840 --> 01:24:30.320 but it's just not enough. 01:24:30.320 --> 01:24:32.960 There's just only so many places that Wagers 01:24:32.960 --> 01:24:34.320 could actually try to escape to. 01:24:34.320 --> 01:24:37.640 Just a great cut off there fromagers and Venom, 01:24:37.640 --> 01:24:41.040 just refusing to budge, taking every single opportunity 01:24:41.040 --> 01:24:43.760 to get that surge established very early on. 01:24:43.760 --> 01:24:45.560 Sharp teeny, though. 01:24:45.560 --> 01:24:47.680 Even after that, early hiccup, 01:24:47.680 --> 01:24:49.600 now trying to see if they can duke it out 01:24:49.600 --> 01:24:51.520 against the likes of the Argentinians. 01:24:51.520 --> 01:24:55.420 Romero and Lewa in a bit of a pickle here too over by Wonkyland. 01:24:55.420 --> 01:24:58.480 They don't have a whole lot of time left to work with here. 01:24:58.480 --> 01:25:02.480 They don't want to find themselves also getting caught out by third party circumstances. 01:25:02.480 --> 01:25:04.600 And for Romero, you might not have a choice. 01:25:04.600 --> 01:25:06.840 Shark and Teeny gonna close this one out. 01:25:06.840 --> 01:25:10.600 And I think Shark, Teeny, Lewa, and Merah are kind of feeling that side effect. 01:25:10.600 --> 01:25:14.200 If when you're the best on your region, most teams don't mess with you. 01:25:14.200 --> 01:25:17.520 You're kind of playing a whole different game than you and you might feel here 01:25:17.520 --> 01:25:20.800 in the global championship where less and less teams are scared. 01:25:20.800 --> 01:25:22.120 Even M. Shari Salvatore. 01:25:22.120 --> 01:25:23.560 We saw him go down early. 01:25:23.560 --> 01:25:26.000 Salvatore getting M. Shari back into the game 01:25:26.000 --> 01:25:27.240 and they're just disengaging. 01:25:27.240 --> 01:25:28.800 I don't think they want to fight this team. 01:25:28.800 --> 01:25:30.720 They probably saw on the feed who it was 01:25:30.720 --> 01:25:32.920 and now they just want to go on with their game. 01:25:32.920 --> 01:25:36.040 It's extremely common to see Shark and Tini 01:25:36.040 --> 01:25:38.600 opting to play early storm. 01:25:38.600 --> 01:25:41.320 They always like to try and capitalize on teams 01:25:41.320 --> 01:25:44.040 retreating back, looking for those reboot opportunities 01:25:44.040 --> 01:25:46.000 and from a place like Wonky, 01:25:46.000 --> 01:25:48.440 bound to be a decent influx of players 01:25:48.440 --> 01:25:50.440 that are just a little bit more injured 01:25:50.440 --> 01:25:54.480 but Serge still not looking the best year for Shark and Tini. 01:25:54.480 --> 01:25:58.160 They are definitely going to need a little bit more damage 01:25:58.160 --> 01:26:01.120 if they want to have a much better setup for the end game. 01:26:01.120 --> 01:26:02.920 Yeah, you gotta imagine what their damage would be like 01:26:02.920 --> 01:26:06.600 if Shadow and Virgo didn't lurk around Golden Grove 01:26:06.600 --> 01:26:08.320 to kind of hit that first monster shop 01:26:08.320 --> 01:26:10.440 that kind of opened up that whole scenario 01:26:10.440 --> 01:26:11.640 on that side of the map. 01:26:11.640 --> 01:26:12.960 They already rotated ahead, 01:26:12.960 --> 01:26:15.600 but Tini is already putting that range of work, 01:26:15.600 --> 01:26:18.080 getting some damage on the Shadow and Virgo themselves, 01:26:18.080 --> 01:26:20.580 trying to just get as comfortable as possible. 01:26:20.580 --> 01:26:22.040 He knows where he's at now. 01:26:22.040 --> 01:26:24.440 Isn't enough to survive the entirety of the game, 01:26:24.440 --> 01:26:27.420 but he's just taking it one step at a time. 01:26:27.420 --> 01:26:29.120 Oh, we're getting a chance to look back 01:26:29.120 --> 01:26:30.720 into what Pete and Poyo have been up to, 01:26:30.720 --> 01:26:33.200 and it just seems like disaster continues 01:26:33.200 --> 01:26:35.420 to strike at every opportunity. 01:26:35.420 --> 01:26:39.440 Saez and Scary had just sort of been trailing Pete and Poyo 01:26:39.440 --> 01:26:42.720 this entire time, ever since they initially scouted out 01:26:42.720 --> 01:26:44.720 the fact that Tidy and Dual found themselves 01:26:44.720 --> 01:26:46.720 in that sandwich positioning. 01:26:46.720 --> 01:26:53.340 Zaya is scary. Just fully understanding the type of advantages that could possibly work with here, but you never know. 01:26:53.340 --> 01:26:59.180 Things could 180 at a moment's notice and people are not exactly the type to let you get away with things. 01:26:59.180 --> 01:27:03.260 Yeah, especially there in a moment like that when you kind of hit some big shots with Ranger. 01:27:03.260 --> 01:27:05.920 Sometimes it's a giant green light to go. 01:27:05.920 --> 01:27:08.260 Swizzy and Pixie go from the battle with. 01:27:08.260 --> 01:27:10.540 We were going to talk about Venom and Ager staying here. 01:27:10.540 --> 01:27:13.400 The zone is suiting them. Pixie and Swizzy doing the same thing. 01:27:13.400 --> 01:27:18.400 221 above the damage threshold and continuing to increase from there. 01:27:18.400 --> 01:27:20.300 But you can see kind of their game plan. 01:27:20.300 --> 01:27:22.600 They're just not trying to one shock into zone. 01:27:22.600 --> 01:27:23.700 They're taking their time. 01:27:23.700 --> 01:27:27.900 They're re-boxing up because they know trying to play this perfect is going to be impossible. 01:27:27.900 --> 01:27:29.700 They're just trying to break it down into steps. 01:27:29.700 --> 01:27:33.000 Heads up play though from Swizzy and Pixie. 01:27:33.000 --> 01:27:38.800 They saw that Meadow and Agers were clearly preoccupied with trying to get tags onto those northern teams 01:27:38.800 --> 01:27:40.900 that are sort of trickling down that mountain span. 01:27:40.900 --> 01:27:45.740 I've made it a much easier for them really only having to deal with pink and rora 01:27:46.700 --> 01:27:51.180 Just a little bit of separation between these two duos, but pink rora 01:27:51.540 --> 01:27:55.580 Maybe even looking to spice things up a bit here if they find themselves in an engagement 01:27:55.740 --> 01:28:01.200 You have to imagine it might also be a play of desperation because how much surge that they really manage 01:28:01.380 --> 01:28:04.900 Sort of build up for themselves while they were waiting on the outskirts of battle woods 01:28:04.900 --> 01:28:05.700 Yeah, and it's just tough 01:28:05.700 --> 01:28:10.180 I even saw Higgs and Curve in the distance starting to set up inside of the zone, so when 01:28:10.180 --> 01:28:13.820 you start to get towards that congested edge, that's when you start to rethink a lot of the 01:28:13.820 --> 01:28:14.820 scenarios. 01:28:14.820 --> 01:28:19.660 Darman Demers though 227, you're seeing them happy to float around in the zone, but it's 01:28:19.660 --> 01:28:20.660 for now. 01:28:20.660 --> 01:28:23.340 They are taking two ticks of damage per second. 01:28:23.340 --> 01:28:26.980 They stay out here, and if they're out here in the next zone, it will tick for 01:28:26.980 --> 01:28:27.980 five. 01:28:27.980 --> 01:28:30.380 So it's not what I wish on any of my enemies. 01:28:30.380 --> 01:28:33.380 On that same note though, we've seen so many teams, even throughout that the 01:28:33.380 --> 01:28:38.500 traditional comes most recent ladies trying to tank up some of those early ticks off the 01:28:38.500 --> 01:28:44.540 ice arm and well, if you have the heels for it it makes total sense, but for a duo like 01:28:44.540 --> 01:28:51.260 me and Boyo, they have really just been struggling from start to finish that early delay on 01:28:51.260 --> 01:28:56.740 their overall game strategy has now put them in such an awkward position and Boyo, he 01:28:56.740 --> 01:29:01.340 might not even be able to make it into the next zone. Pete's already been not 01:29:01.340 --> 01:29:03.540 just too much damage to handle. 01:29:03.540 --> 01:29:06.820 That is one of the most selfless things 01:29:06.820 --> 01:29:10.060 I have seen at a global championship. 01:29:10.060 --> 01:29:12.780 Peterbock, Pollo, reading the situation. 01:29:12.780 --> 01:29:15.620 We are not going to be able to survive together 01:29:15.620 --> 01:29:17.900 with the amount of heals that we have. 01:29:17.900 --> 01:29:20.540 Peterbock dropping everything for Pollo. 01:29:20.540 --> 01:29:22.100 I said this at the Summitland. 01:29:22.100 --> 01:29:25.820 Pollo is the new crown king, but he is making it work, 01:29:25.820 --> 01:29:28.180 but he has such little heals left. 01:29:28.180 --> 01:29:29.900 The pain involved here, Jacob. 01:29:29.900 --> 01:29:35.060 They didn't actually see him on that last rotate. 01:29:35.060 --> 01:29:39.800 So Ponyo will just narrowly skirt by, but he still has to make it, 01:29:39.800 --> 01:29:44.300 break into that edge of zone and hope that no one is going to be a flexible on the way. 01:29:44.300 --> 01:29:47.540 But the moment that he touches down, easily cleaned up. 01:29:47.540 --> 01:29:49.660 Just too little to work with. 01:29:49.660 --> 01:29:53.940 So Darman, DMS, Rapid Flicks, now trying to dictate who's going to actually get 01:29:53.940 --> 01:29:54.780 the leverage here. 01:29:54.780 --> 01:29:57.820 Yeah, and then you start to think of your sky and scroll, 01:29:57.820 --> 01:30:00.300 your triple contested competition, 01:30:00.300 --> 01:30:03.980 start to have some troubles early in it, game number one. 01:30:03.980 --> 01:30:05.980 That's gonna start to boost the confidence a little bit, 01:30:05.980 --> 01:30:08.100 but you still have to exit here in the end game. 01:30:08.100 --> 01:30:13.100 You see Teenie already down 152 below the damn threshold. 01:30:13.380 --> 01:30:15.340 Sharp falls as well. 01:30:15.340 --> 01:30:18.380 That is a very rare sight. 01:30:18.380 --> 01:30:21.700 Two incredibly strong fan favorites 01:30:21.700 --> 01:30:24.380 already taken out before placement points 01:30:24.380 --> 01:30:26.180 really even begin to factor in. 01:30:26.180 --> 01:30:29.260 Elimination is going to be what carries over for most of them. 01:30:29.260 --> 01:30:32.540 But obviously, Jacob, nothing ever goes to plan 01:30:32.540 --> 01:30:34.020 when it comes to that land environment. 01:30:34.020 --> 01:30:36.500 Malguka alluded to it, but now Clicks and Rapid, 01:30:36.500 --> 01:30:38.100 they're still trying to see if they can manifest 01:30:38.100 --> 01:30:39.780 a big performance here in game one. 01:30:39.780 --> 01:30:42.220 Yeah, you can see they still need some search, 01:30:42.220 --> 01:30:43.660 couple more damage points here. 01:30:43.660 --> 01:30:46.180 Not necessarily a ton, but if you're gonna take shots 01:30:46.180 --> 01:30:47.980 like that, it's definitely gonna give you 01:30:47.980 --> 01:30:50.420 deeper and deeper into the hole. 01:30:50.420 --> 01:30:51.940 And that's why you see Clicks was looking out, 01:30:51.940 --> 01:30:53.980 A4 and trying to go for a cheeky little shot. 01:30:53.980 --> 01:30:59.660 something players like to do to sneak up, but now Storm Search is activated. Every 7 seconds, 25 damage. 01:30:59.660 --> 01:31:05.580 He has only one bandage in his inventory, so he needs to go. They need to figure out where they're 01:31:05.580 --> 01:31:10.060 gonna fight this fight at, otherwise it's gonna be lights out. But what makes you get a move on? 01:31:10.060 --> 01:31:14.700 They don't have any mobility to work with. They are bores to just try and fight their way 01:31:14.700 --> 01:31:19.500 through this one. Maybe Higgs, Curve, but Klicks just all ready to beat and knock, 01:31:19.500 --> 01:31:22.840 and that's going to be easy peasy wipeout. 01:31:22.840 --> 01:31:26.600 Now, Rapid, let's to see if there's any form of recovery, 01:31:26.600 --> 01:31:28.360 something he can salvage. 01:31:28.360 --> 01:31:29.920 We know exactly what he's capable of, 01:31:29.920 --> 01:31:32.960 but this is a grim loadout and a dire situation. 01:31:32.960 --> 01:31:35.400 Yeah, the only silver lining I have for Rapid right now 01:31:35.400 --> 01:31:37.560 is for the next couple of seconds or so. 01:31:37.560 --> 01:31:39.240 The storm surge will deactivate. 01:31:39.240 --> 01:31:40.560 We'll move into the next zone. 01:31:40.560 --> 01:31:41.880 Then it will turn on again. 01:31:41.880 --> 01:31:44.800 So for Rapid, you've bogged yourself some time here. 01:31:44.800 --> 01:31:47.360 But what are you going to do with that time 01:31:47.360 --> 01:31:49.120 as you see him looking off in the distance, 01:31:49.120 --> 01:31:52.640 seen the boat scuffle breaking down but everybody's essentially full built no 01:31:52.640 --> 01:31:57.880 shots can sneak their way through and then I want to age is also trying to 01:31:57.880 --> 01:32:03.480 avoid the problems of focus from the rest of the lobby but do a decent job so 01:32:03.480 --> 01:32:06.780 far coming that way forward and now they're gonna get a little bit tapped up 01:32:06.780 --> 01:32:10.760 here is better starting to fall incredibly low does have a chump just 01:32:10.760 --> 01:32:15.880 still to work with and for overdrive but it doesn't matter ages watches on as 01:32:15.880 --> 01:32:21.260 As his duo gets taken out, now trying to see whether or not he can be able to survive himself, 01:32:21.260 --> 01:32:24.900 these material counts are just falling at such a rapid rate. 01:32:24.900 --> 01:32:29.400 Yeah, it's just even worse. He's 54, below the damage threshold. 01:32:29.400 --> 01:32:34.500 Of course, only one player needs to go down, storm surge will deactivate for the rest of this game. 01:32:34.500 --> 01:32:39.780 So right now, playing kind of either for the most part, doesn't want to take any unnecessary things. 01:32:39.780 --> 01:32:44.180 Wrapping it on the other side, though, down to 34 HP, two build. 01:32:44.180 --> 01:32:46.840 He is praying for a miracle. 01:32:46.840 --> 01:32:48.720 Well, hey, make it worse. 01:32:48.720 --> 01:32:49.220 Stop it. 01:32:49.220 --> 01:32:50.880 The bush buddy doesn't get the chance. 01:32:50.880 --> 01:32:55.080 Ionzo and Josh, they're just not going to let that one slide by. 01:32:55.080 --> 01:32:58.880 Ager's still trying to make a solo sort of come up here. 01:32:58.880 --> 01:33:02.840 But for Curve and Higgs, currently holding down the high ground 01:33:02.840 --> 01:33:06.560 and doing a great job at ensuring that nobody else being 01:33:06.560 --> 01:33:09.120 a little bit of a late straggler into that back side of zone 01:33:09.120 --> 01:33:10.760 is going to have an easy time about it. 01:33:10.760 --> 01:33:15.640 phrase lost so much of his HP there already as a solo to Higgs knows that 01:33:15.640 --> 01:33:20.600 this is a very uncomfortable spot to be in for everyone underneath them and 01:33:20.600 --> 01:33:22.120 they're just trying to control the flow of traffic. 01:33:22.120 --> 01:33:25.400 Yeah, the only thing they really have to watch out for is anybody trying to sneak 01:33:25.400 --> 01:33:28.600 me trying to shockwave up and they go ahead and move to the front side of the 01:33:28.600 --> 01:33:30.600 zone making sure to reinforce their position. 01:33:30.600 --> 01:33:33.320 Viko Malibuka sky and straw. 01:33:33.320 --> 01:33:35.240 There goes their first elimination. 01:33:35.240 --> 01:33:38.200 Troll is going to go down but Viko did take a big shot. 01:33:38.200 --> 01:33:42.260 can't help but notice how messy this mid-ground territory is starting to become. 01:33:42.260 --> 01:33:46.660 The Green Hill zone just so problematic with some of these elevation shifts, 01:33:46.660 --> 01:33:50.420 but Malibuca and Viko still managing to stay side by side. 01:33:50.420 --> 01:33:52.540 They've done a great job at following each other, 01:33:52.540 --> 01:33:54.460 but even taking over that front-side zone, 01:33:54.460 --> 01:33:55.540 they're going to have to start looking back. 01:33:55.540 --> 01:33:56.940 They need a refresh. 01:33:56.940 --> 01:33:58.860 Yep, Hicks curve still up above. 01:33:58.860 --> 01:34:01.260 Nobody has tried to contest them yet. 01:34:01.260 --> 01:34:02.580 So re-jumping around. 01:34:02.580 --> 01:34:04.700 Josh get elimination along with the Amzo. 01:34:04.700 --> 01:34:07.020 Viko getting another one onto Gondo. 01:34:07.020 --> 01:34:11.140 The second one of the game, sometimes it's not the shield, not the eliminations, Taco. 01:34:11.140 --> 01:34:13.060 It's what you get from those eliminations. 01:34:13.060 --> 01:34:16.780 It's just how many players are still managing to barely survive here in the end of it. 01:34:16.780 --> 01:34:19.860 Swizzy cut off there by Pico, but only momentarily. 01:34:19.860 --> 01:34:22.820 We'll get an opportunity to try and read a line with Pixie. 01:34:22.820 --> 01:34:24.100 Now it's all about cringe. 01:34:24.100 --> 01:34:25.820 Volko, Pico spotted them out. 01:34:25.820 --> 01:34:30.980 He has control, but he doesn't want to take a cross shot at them just yet. 01:34:30.980 --> 01:34:33.980 We're gonna actually look, play a little bit more patiently, but 01:34:33.980 --> 01:34:37.220 Have you to break through a lot of these pre-existing tarps? 01:34:37.220 --> 01:34:38.820 It's going to pose some threats now 01:34:38.820 --> 01:34:40.700 because they've lost a little bit of that frontside control. 01:34:40.700 --> 01:34:43.500 And again, nobody's even given a chance to look up. 01:34:43.500 --> 01:34:45.780 Hicks and Herb, anybody, anytime somebody, 01:34:45.780 --> 01:34:47.020 and it's one of those boxes, 01:34:47.020 --> 01:34:49.300 anytime they see somebody build something fresh, 01:34:49.300 --> 01:34:50.980 they're immediately pressuring down. 01:34:50.980 --> 01:34:52.900 They don't even give them a singular second 01:34:52.900 --> 01:34:55.340 to start to look up, and it's from Mac and Roar. 01:34:55.340 --> 01:34:57.940 You see the plenty pressure on the candy, Ari, Gar, and Beeman. 01:34:57.940 --> 01:35:01.300 Everybody now, it's just being suffocated down below, 01:35:01.300 --> 01:35:02.900 and even in the back side of the zone, 01:35:02.900 --> 01:35:04.340 where you see Pink going down. 01:35:04.340 --> 01:35:05.820 That's exactly what Vika needed, though. 01:35:05.820 --> 01:35:08.860 That cycle material to every little bit counts at this stage. 01:35:08.860 --> 01:35:12.220 Underneath, though, Malabuca going to be wiped out here. 01:35:12.220 --> 01:35:15.460 Vika now opting to just play the chug jug for what remains. 01:35:15.460 --> 01:35:18.300 Open to the place, drag the team which is compiled for him instead. 01:35:18.300 --> 01:35:20.580 But now the pressure of the lobby is starting to fold in. 01:35:20.580 --> 01:35:22.300 High ground looking directly at him. 01:35:22.300 --> 01:35:24.220 He'll be forced to drop right around the corner. 01:35:24.220 --> 01:35:25.900 But it's too little too late. 01:35:25.900 --> 01:35:27.220 Tries to go for the elimination. 01:35:27.220 --> 01:35:29.580 The cheeky play just does not work. 01:35:29.580 --> 01:35:32.300 Everybody down below is certainly going through it. 01:35:32.300 --> 01:35:34.700 But even Demish right now, oh my god, 01:35:34.700 --> 01:35:36.460 I'll even know where we're from, 01:35:36.460 --> 01:35:39.620 but it doesn't matter because he's right back to the lobby 01:35:39.620 --> 01:35:41.820 and that's exactly what you need if you're Demish. 01:35:41.820 --> 01:35:43.460 It's only Scythe and Mabstokko, 01:35:43.460 --> 01:35:44.780 but it's better than nothing. 01:35:44.780 --> 01:35:46.260 But will it be enough? 01:35:46.260 --> 01:35:49.500 Is that going to be the spark of life right now 01:35:49.500 --> 01:35:50.340 for Demish? 01:35:50.340 --> 01:35:51.860 And no, Hari, Kami, 01:35:51.860 --> 01:35:54.020 immediately shutting that one down, 01:35:54.020 --> 01:35:56.420 but this right here is where Kami and Hari 01:35:56.420 --> 01:35:57.700 can begin to thrive. 01:35:57.700 --> 01:35:58.900 We know what they're capable of 01:35:58.900 --> 01:36:00.500 in a land environment and for heads, 01:36:00.500 --> 01:36:08.500 They've had the high ground largely uncontested, but it all depends on whether or not Hari and Cami could continue controlling what's happening underneath. 01:36:08.500 --> 01:36:13.500 They've got to have some of the most eliminations in this game as fast as much as gets ran through by Brazil. 01:36:13.500 --> 01:36:16.500 Seven eliminations though for Cami and Hari. 01:36:16.500 --> 01:36:18.500 Make it eight, eleven, nine! 01:36:18.500 --> 01:36:24.500 Eliminations already almost in the double digits as they smoothly walk into the top three. 01:36:24.500 --> 01:36:25.500 3. 01:36:25.500 --> 01:36:30.500 Harry is hitting his own level of flow state right now as Harry, Cammie, beginning to just 01:36:30.500 --> 01:36:32.300 dropping layer by layer. 01:36:32.300 --> 01:36:36.500 Eventually, they'll force the high ground to potentially come right to where they want 01:36:36.500 --> 01:36:37.500 him. 01:36:37.500 --> 01:36:40.500 But Cammie and Harry, they're looking up, they're also looking underneath. 01:36:40.500 --> 01:36:42.500 They're trying to make sure they don't get caught in the middle. 01:36:42.500 --> 01:36:47.500 They were in the middle of that sandwich, and they get a bite taken out of them by 01:36:47.500 --> 01:36:48.500 the Gwendolyn. 01:36:48.500 --> 01:36:51.500 Not as bare as well, but y'all forgot about Higgs and Curd. 01:36:51.500 --> 01:36:54.660 This is EU versus Brazil versus NA! 01:36:54.660 --> 01:36:58.660 NA6 is going in the track and see if they can get it won! 01:36:58.660 --> 01:37:01.660 The first strike has landed! 01:37:01.660 --> 01:37:06.660 I know Bob McGurr got to be going for raising somewhere in this audience. 01:37:06.660 --> 01:37:08.660 Big smiles all around. 01:37:08.660 --> 01:37:14.660 Because curve and Higgs finding this first victory royale, it's definitely a statement. 01:37:14.660 --> 01:37:16.660 I'm not gonna lie, boys. 01:37:16.660 --> 01:37:17.660 What's that? 01:37:17.660 --> 01:37:18.660 It's easy to look at. 01:37:18.660 --> 01:37:19.660 It sure is. 01:37:19.660 --> 01:37:21.540 It sure was. 01:37:21.540 --> 01:37:24.700 Why would no one contest your high ground? 01:37:24.700 --> 01:37:26.380 I literally said on first moving, 01:37:26.380 --> 01:37:27.660 I said the whole lobby's nervous. 01:37:27.660 --> 01:37:29.100 We're just going to win the game on high ground. 01:37:29.100 --> 01:37:30.300 Do you think they're going to continue 01:37:30.300 --> 01:37:33.660 to be nervous after seeing you play like that? 01:37:33.660 --> 01:37:36.820 No, I think the nerves will start going away for everyone. 01:37:36.820 --> 01:37:38.940 And what about the nurse that you know, Higgs? 01:37:38.940 --> 01:37:41.140 Now you've got a victory royale on your belt. 01:37:41.140 --> 01:37:42.740 Yeah, I mean, I feel good. 01:37:42.740 --> 01:37:45.940 You know, first win on land in five years or four years. 01:37:45.940 --> 01:37:47.860 So yeah, it's nice. 01:37:47.860 --> 01:37:50.740 Let's see if this momentum can continue. 01:37:50.740 --> 01:37:53.700 For Yuka, you're just a LAN natural. 01:37:53.700 --> 01:37:55.420 Do you think you're also the best controller player 01:37:55.420 --> 01:37:56.740 in the world right now?

Let's get serious. 01:41:59.380 --> 01:42:01.380 Have some shame, Zeke. 01:42:01.380 --> 01:42:04.380 I will give it to you. I'm a big fan of Higgs and Curve. 01:42:04.380 --> 01:42:06.380 I think Curve is an absolute star. 01:42:06.380 --> 01:42:09.380 Higgs is one of my favorite characters we've seen. 01:42:09.380 --> 01:42:12.180 I was talking to Vivi in the back and we were saying, 01:42:12.180 --> 01:42:14.660 when you're looking at NA's best chances here of a win, 01:42:14.660 --> 01:42:16.820 you're obviously looking at vendor ages and battlewards, 01:42:16.820 --> 01:42:18.780 but then you're looking at straight at Hicks and Curves. 01:42:18.780 --> 01:42:22.100 You have to have the ability here in this first game. 01:42:22.100 --> 01:42:23.740 They played it so well, Kelly. 01:42:23.740 --> 01:42:26.740 The thing I loved about them is they did exactly what 01:42:26.740 --> 01:42:27.940 you need to do in first games. 01:42:27.940 --> 01:42:29.980 Game one in almost every tournament I feel like, 01:42:29.980 --> 01:42:32.420 any big tournament, people don't look up at height. 01:42:32.420 --> 01:42:33.740 You play for height early, 01:42:33.740 --> 01:42:35.460 you're gonna be able to hold it. 01:42:35.460 --> 01:42:37.340 And you can hear from that interview that Hicks and Curves 01:42:37.340 --> 01:42:39.340 They had that tower. They had 01:42:39.340 --> 01:42:41.340 it on top of this plateau that 01:42:41.340 --> 01:42:42.340 just gave them so much awareness 01:42:42.340 --> 01:42:43.340 and they were smack dab in this 01:42:43.340 --> 01:42:45.340 thinner zone six so that once 01:42:45.340 --> 01:42:46.340 it did start rotating, they were 01:42:46.340 --> 01:42:47.340 able to kind of just follow 01:42:47.340 --> 01:42:48.340 that along and Green Hill Zone 01:42:48.340 --> 01:42:49.340 kind of play back and forth. 01:42:49.340 --> 01:42:51.340 They were a little lucky with 01:42:51.340 --> 01:42:53.340 some of the rotate, but there 01:42:53.340 --> 01:42:55.340 is just such verticality in 01:42:55.340 --> 01:42:57.340 Green Hill Zone that they were 01:42:57.340 --> 01:42:58.340 literally able to just bring 01:42:58.340 --> 01:42:59.340 each of these plateaus together. 01:42:59.340 --> 01:43:01.340 But there really wasn't an 01:43:01.340 --> 01:43:02.340 opportunity for these low ground 01:43:02.340 --> 01:43:04.860 to just bring heat of these plateaus together. 01:43:04.860 --> 01:43:06.340 But there really wasn't an opportunity 01:43:06.340 --> 01:43:09.340 for these low ground teams to kind of chop. 01:43:09.340 --> 01:43:12.340 They were up there for so long. 01:43:12.340 --> 01:43:14.100 And you know what I love the most about this 01:43:14.100 --> 01:43:16.380 is we actually caught up with Papa Kerr. 01:43:16.380 --> 01:43:17.540 He's actually here. 01:43:17.540 --> 01:43:18.460 This is Kerr's dad. 01:43:18.460 --> 01:43:20.260 He's here with his brother. 01:43:20.260 --> 01:43:22.260 And Papa Kerr was saying, hey, Mama Kerr 01:43:22.260 --> 01:43:23.100 had to stay home. 01:43:23.100 --> 01:43:24.740 So shout out to you, Mama Kerr. 01:43:24.740 --> 01:43:26.340 I'm sure when you saw this moment, 01:43:26.340 --> 01:43:27.180 you were taken. 01:43:27.180 --> 01:43:29.260 That's my beautiful little boy. 01:43:29.260 --> 01:43:31.380 But man, to see them come coming with. 01:43:31.380 --> 01:43:33.900 How you reaction or yours, man? 01:43:33.900 --> 01:43:35.780 That was my reaction. 01:43:35.780 --> 01:43:39.620 What a fantastic moment for Higgs and Curve, though, again. 01:43:39.620 --> 01:43:42.140 But remember that 11's right. 01:43:42.140 --> 01:43:43.300 That was just game one. 01:43:43.300 --> 01:43:44.940 That's just kind of the feeler game. 01:43:44.940 --> 01:43:46.420 Let's take a look at our leaderboard 01:43:46.420 --> 01:43:48.940 to kind of see how things are going. 01:43:48.940 --> 01:43:51.620 Remember, can't forget four points per elimination, 01:43:51.620 --> 01:43:54.540 but at the top, as it stands, Curve and Higgs 01:43:54.540 --> 01:43:55.660 right there in first place. 01:43:55.660 --> 01:44:00.100 But Cammy are 11 to game. 01:44:00.100 --> 01:44:03.300 What is an elephant doing in Ohio? 01:44:03.300 --> 01:44:06.020 I mean, this might be the only time we've seen you 01:44:06.020 --> 01:44:09.260 coming in high with the most limbs in the lobby. 01:44:09.260 --> 01:44:10.980 It's Marvin in it while we can. 01:44:10.980 --> 01:44:12.860 Harvey was popping off. 01:44:12.860 --> 01:44:13.860 Oh my goodness. 01:44:13.860 --> 01:44:15.580 He had seven legs, Wolfian. 01:44:15.580 --> 01:44:16.700 They were feeling anywhere. 01:44:16.700 --> 01:44:18.740 Electric, that's the exact type of first game. 01:44:18.740 --> 01:44:20.180 You want to see those two have it. 01:44:20.180 --> 01:44:21.340 Yeah, I was writing down notes. 01:44:21.340 --> 01:44:23.300 I was like, OK, six, seven, eight, nine, 01:44:23.300 --> 01:44:24.540 all of them, but you just call it a play. 01:44:24.540 --> 01:44:25.700 And they were running that mid-ground, 01:44:25.700 --> 01:44:27.460 and that meant to me with the smart play. 01:44:27.460 --> 01:44:29.380 Because they're obviously going to be able to steal fight. 01:44:29.380 --> 01:44:33.220 low ground just had so many teams fighting each other that they weren't really going to be able to do that. 01:44:33.220 --> 01:44:36.660 So, love to see that play from them and hopefully they can do it in game number two as well. 01:44:36.660 --> 01:44:39.620 So many high-profile duos. Gotta talk also to Darman, Dimas. 01:44:40.260 --> 01:44:46.660 Dimas put a situation where you've got to solo clutch. These types of situations are so difficult. 01:44:46.660 --> 01:44:52.420 Then you add on the layer of, hey, we're at global, this is a land, you've got the crowd going crazy, 01:44:52.420 --> 01:44:55.700 and still, even through all that, managed to clutch up. 01:44:55.700 --> 01:44:59.540 What I loved about this play from Demish is that at one point he just was in shambles. 01:44:59.540 --> 01:45:04.820 And when you don't have skills and you don't have mobility, you're loadout, well you might as well pick up every gun that you find in the game. 01:45:04.820 --> 01:45:07.700 At one point he had four different guns in his loadout. 01:45:07.700 --> 01:45:14.820 And that was definitely allowing him, I'm sorry, in Demetri's loadout, that was allowing him to be able to kind of get more and more eliminations as a solo player at this point. 01:45:14.820 --> 01:45:19.940 To be able to get four or five eliminations is so pivotal in being able to raise you up in the leaderboard. 01:45:19.940 --> 01:45:25.860 That's a beauty of this duo. Both of these two have the ability to have plays and end games just like this one. 01:45:25.860 --> 01:45:30.820 Demons, you know, we know how much of a fantastic solo player he is and so when he gets to these moments, 01:45:30.820 --> 01:45:33.940 he is in the face, he's able to stay in the moment, knows what he needs to do. 01:45:34.820 --> 01:45:39.940 Look, it's looking good for the polls so far after game one. They're clearly impressed and we want to see everyone else step out as well. 01:45:39.940 --> 01:45:45.220 I think we're concerned to be a little bit friends. We got to look at like Peterbop, Pollo, Sky and Skrull, Viko Malibuka. 01:45:45.220 --> 01:45:50.100 I think of all of the three, Viko Mali, they did the best, right, kind of finding themselves a top 10. 01:45:50.100 --> 01:45:56.260 But for Peter Bonham Pollo, it's sky and scroll, very tough first games. 01:45:56.760 --> 01:46:00.420 It was a little rough. I mean, even just as hard to get alone was a little bit shaky. 01:46:00.420 --> 01:46:04.180 It seemed like there was actually, it was such a far Western bus path 01:46:04.180 --> 01:46:06.540 that a lot of those Eastern POIs really struggled. 01:46:06.540 --> 01:46:09.500 We actually saw one of those players go down really early. 01:46:09.500 --> 01:46:11.980 I think it was Nshari. They were able to bring him back up. 01:46:11.980 --> 01:46:16.340 But it did seem like they were kind of able to separate their P.O.I. a little bit. 01:46:16.340 --> 01:46:19.060 But the real struggle was after they left their P.O.I. 01:46:19.060 --> 01:46:24.100 Peter Von Hoyle stayed just a little too long in Storm and ran into the likes of Gary and Staya. 01:46:24.100 --> 01:46:28.540 Then unfortunately at some point you just can't keep fighting in Storm and using up all your heels. 01:46:28.540 --> 01:46:34.420 Yeah, I think what concerns me is I think we all sort of thought in the ideal situation 01:46:34.420 --> 01:46:38.940 they're both going to be able to somehow survive off-Sport and then get to play games out, right? 01:46:38.940 --> 01:46:43.940 We saw that scenario in that first game and it didn't quite look so good for I've lived in and so 01:46:44.220 --> 01:46:47.100 Something else is gonna have to click something else is gonna have to shift 01:46:47.540 --> 01:46:51.980 Very messy games from both and that's not what you're using at least in the sky and small sense 01:46:51.980 --> 01:46:55.660 Yeah, we used to see them have a lot cleaner games. We sort of running down there low 01:46:56.500 --> 01:47:00.780 Still lots more for that to be played though. So I'm not panicking yet. Yeah, I think of course 01:47:01.620 --> 01:47:05.620 Sharkate TV as well man at 39 plays from the duo again 01:47:05.620 --> 01:47:13.780 I don't want to freak out too much it is just game number one out of 12 right so we do have a lot of games like you're 01:47:14.420 --> 01:47:17.540 Mentioning here. I also want to highlight Mac and big wet up my gosh 01:47:17.780 --> 01:47:19.380 Let's go beyond man 01:47:19.380 --> 01:47:24.260 I literally talked about almost every single small region team and I somehow didn't talk about them even though 01:47:24.260 --> 01:47:29.220 They have been one of the best in the region and you know it just makes me think about how leaven every time we talk about 01:47:29.460 --> 01:47:33.620 Smaller region teams and we bring up Brazil. He's like stop saying that they are a smaller region team 01:47:33.620 --> 01:47:38.060 They are not and obviously every time we get to see a Brazilian team come to land 01:47:38.060 --> 01:47:43.400 They always come out with a win against some of the biggest names to receive back in to where handle this 01:47:43.580 --> 01:47:46.700 Crazy in game for game number one is exactly what we need 01:47:53.420 --> 01:48:00.100 Vibes are just so high both of them feeling so confident. They know people are sleeping in them because their situation 01:48:00.100 --> 01:48:02.100 Let's be real. It's not ideal, right? 01:48:02.100 --> 01:48:04.100 Triple contested in that first game. 01:48:04.100 --> 01:48:05.100 They make quick work of it. 01:48:05.100 --> 01:48:07.100 Again, the talent in this lobby, 01:48:07.100 --> 01:48:09.100 the talent in some of these other regions, 01:48:09.100 --> 01:48:11.100 it's absolutely there. 01:48:11.100 --> 01:48:13.100 It's the platform, the opportunity to showcase that. 01:48:13.100 --> 01:48:15.100 Let's not kid ourselves. 01:48:15.100 --> 01:48:17.100 Are they going to get the chance to play out all 12 games 01:48:17.100 --> 01:48:18.100 in that same manner? 01:48:18.100 --> 01:48:19.100 Probably not. 01:48:19.100 --> 01:48:20.100 But if, when they do survive, 01:48:20.100 --> 01:48:22.100 they can keep having games like that. 01:48:22.100 --> 01:48:24.100 Look, we might be seeing another visiting team 01:48:24.100 --> 01:48:25.100 in that top 10, 01:48:25.100 --> 01:48:27.100 and these two definitely would deserve it. 01:48:27.100 --> 01:48:28.100 I love that, guys. 01:48:28.100 --> 01:48:30.800 We also wanted to highlight Swizzy and Pixie for you. 01:48:30.800 --> 01:48:31.800 It's crazy. 01:48:31.800 --> 01:48:34.700 We just, anytime, I'm like, oh, maybe that's not enough. 01:48:34.700 --> 01:48:36.000 Like, we've talked about a bunch of things. 01:48:36.000 --> 01:48:37.500 No, Zeke, there's 50 to us here. 01:48:37.500 --> 01:48:40.600 All worthy of mentioning to see them again. 01:48:40.600 --> 01:48:42.700 And again, I wonder, I have to remind myself, even. 01:48:42.700 --> 01:48:46.400 This is just the context of just game number one. 01:48:46.400 --> 01:48:48.400 I'd love to maybe shift perspective a little bit. 01:48:48.400 --> 01:48:50.300 After this first game, what are you guys 01:48:50.300 --> 01:48:51.900 maybe seeing out of game number one 01:48:51.900 --> 01:48:55.100 that could potentially change moving forward? 01:48:55.100 --> 01:49:01.420 I think seeing how many teams that were trying to tank Storm just get of the littering, right? 01:49:01.420 --> 01:49:10.260 Shout out to my brother Rhys, I'm using the crowd here somewhere, that brother's done video after video after video about just how much people try to play Storm. 01:49:10.260 --> 01:49:15.060 I think everybody knows that's going to keep you successful in a lot of the different seasons and matters we've had this year. 01:49:15.060 --> 01:49:21.020 In that first game, so many of our top teams trying to tank, trying to rotate late into the half-nile zones. 01:49:21.020 --> 01:49:26.020 It just was not working, it wasn't clicking a lot of them, it really struggled in there. 01:49:26.020 --> 01:49:29.020 It's really interesting because Shark and Teenie, who at the start of the season, 01:49:29.020 --> 01:49:32.020 wasn't necessarily painting Storm as the weeks have developed, have been doing it more and more, 01:49:32.020 --> 01:49:35.020 and I just feel like I haven't seen success from them when they do that. 01:49:35.020 --> 01:49:39.020 But obviously, you can tank Storm and you can get these great Dead Side Rotates 01:49:39.020 --> 01:49:43.020 if no one else is doing it, but if half the lobby is staying in Storm 01:49:43.020 --> 01:49:47.020 and trying to get these Dead Side Rotates, it's no longer a Dead Side Rotate. 01:49:47.020 --> 01:49:52.140 with a poyote actually when he was trying to rotate in right he tries to rotate in he's hiding in the bush 01:49:52.140 --> 01:49:57.340 he wanted to keep flapping to the side of the zone but then i drop in guns or come passing he's actually 01:49:57.340 --> 01:50:00.860 can't grow that way but then he has to wrap back around he's in the storm because he wants to be 01:50:00.860 --> 01:50:05.660 where nobody ends up wrapping down into more congestion it's like it is really going to be tough 01:50:05.660 --> 01:50:10.300 like you say kenny when so many more players are trying to do it we'll see how that ebbs and 01:50:10.300 --> 01:50:14.380 flows right because now a lot of those guys might go oh actually we don't want to do that again 01:50:14.380 --> 01:50:17.820 next game and it actually doesn't become free so if you all the people thought they're in it 01:50:17.820 --> 01:50:22.940 it's a bit easier so you know it's always a tough one to pull with some of these big game rotates 01:50:22.940 --> 01:50:29.100 I wanted to also touch on fifth place racks and Janice oh my gosh guys like we could sit here and 01:50:29.100 --> 01:50:35.420 talk about duos forever but again how was game number one for them and maybe similar type question 01:50:35.420 --> 01:50:40.860 what were you seeing I was just saying when that camera pans over I'm expecting some MA noise 01:50:40.860 --> 01:50:42.860 You finally does come through 01:50:42.940 --> 01:50:46.020 The reality of these two is that I think very slept on 01:50:46.260 --> 01:50:52.860 This is a problem with you being as deep as it is as far as I'm so many good teams is that a team like Rex and Janice can 01:50:52.860 --> 01:50:57.460 Almost go under the radar because they might be considered like the Mike tempest team in EU 01:50:57.460 --> 01:51:03.660 But that just don't means they're very good team and Janice has so much experience on this day 01:51:03.660 --> 01:51:06.380 That's books and early in the week, and he looked at me as I love a man 01:51:06.380 --> 01:51:08.380 I think it's a good idea. 01:51:08.380 --> 01:51:09.380 I think it's a good idea. 01:51:09.380 --> 01:51:10.380 It's a good idea. 01:51:10.380 --> 01:51:11.380 It's good to be back. 01:51:11.380 --> 01:51:12.380 People are writing me off. 01:51:12.380 --> 01:51:13.380 I'm done. 01:51:13.380 --> 01:51:14.380 I'm back on the stage. 01:51:14.380 --> 01:51:16.380 And so hopefully using that and 01:51:16.380 --> 01:51:17.380 all the talent that racks has. 01:51:17.380 --> 01:51:19.380 I mean, that kid is, he's going 01:51:19.380 --> 01:51:20.380 places. 01:51:20.380 --> 01:51:21.380 So really looking forward to 01:51:21.380 --> 01:51:22.380 seeing what they do this 01:51:22.380 --> 01:51:23.380 weekend. 01:51:23.380 --> 01:51:24.380 Yeah, just to build on that. 01:51:24.380 --> 01:51:25.380 Obviously I come from the 01:51:25.380 --> 01:51:26.380 North American region, but I 01:51:26.380 --> 01:51:27.380 have been seeing and watching 01:51:27.380 --> 01:51:28.380 Janice play for so long. 01:51:28.380 --> 01:51:29.380 But rax is definitely a newer 01:51:29.380 --> 01:51:30.380 player for me. 01:51:30.380 --> 01:51:31.380 So to see him do so well is 01:51:31.380 --> 01:51:32.380 exactly what we need for 01:51:32.380 --> 01:51:33.380 game number one, but I'm 01:51:33.380 --> 01:51:34.380 ready for the next game. 01:51:34.380 --> 01:51:35.380 That's right. 01:51:35.380 --> 01:51:42.460 game number two. It's always so crucial though getting off to a hot start here in 01:51:42.460 --> 01:51:46.620 day one Jacob because all these teams know sure you might have 12 matches told 01:51:46.620 --> 01:51:49.820 to work with but there's only six split across both of these days of 01:51:49.820 --> 01:51:53.380 competition so we've seen a little bit of pop-offs and for some of our duos 01:51:53.380 --> 01:51:56.860 that didn't get off to the best spot well let's see if they can make up for 01:51:56.860 --> 01:51:59.740 it here in game two. 01:52:05.380 --> 01:52:18.540 I know this fight right here didn't necessarily go down the way anybody really thought it would 01:52:18.540 --> 01:52:22.780 but a whole different bus path means a whole different game plan. 01:52:22.780 --> 01:52:25.140 We saw M. Shari get knocked right out of the gauge. 01:52:25.140 --> 01:52:30.180 Peterbott, Koyos, Skye, and Skroll take two different sides and eventually both disengage 01:52:30.180 --> 01:52:31.180 out. 01:52:31.180 --> 01:52:33.320 Honestly, we might have called this an off-spot fight, 01:52:33.320 --> 01:52:35.540 but in game one, it's anything but that. 01:52:35.540 --> 01:52:38.420 Look at Pete go, one of the first to actually touch 01:52:38.420 --> 01:52:41.020 put on the ground, already picking up Shaka and trying 01:52:41.020 --> 01:52:44.180 to see if he can get an angle onto Sky or a scroll. 01:52:44.180 --> 01:52:47.360 But the moment might have been lost in just a couple 01:52:47.360 --> 01:52:48.340 seconds here. 01:52:48.340 --> 01:52:51.220 Instead, falling back, slurp truck claim. 01:52:51.220 --> 01:52:52.820 Sky scroll though, now trying to look 01:52:52.820 --> 01:52:54.260 and see if they can go on the offensive. 01:52:54.260 --> 01:52:55.740 And you can never factor out how 01:52:55.740 --> 01:52:56.980 the release is getting up to here. 01:52:56.980 --> 01:52:59.260 Yeah, and this is really putting a wrench in the Peter 01:52:59.260 --> 01:53:08.260 They also plan on the south side and just like that last game, they didn't necessarily spend a ton of time looting up the reality rain. 01:53:08.260 --> 01:53:14.260 They went back towards that backbound where we see Tidy and Jewel kind of focusing up their position at. 01:53:14.260 --> 01:53:16.260 And that's exactly what you're seeing here. 01:53:16.260 --> 01:53:22.260 But if you notice, look at their loadout. Just like last game, they have little to nothing to even take a fight. 01:53:22.260 --> 01:53:26.220 They fight, but hey, action elsewhere on the map this time. 01:53:26.220 --> 01:53:29.540 It's going to go in the favor though of Gino and Pablo. 01:53:29.540 --> 01:53:32.540 And that's a little back to back cleanup to shut down Brazil, 01:53:32.540 --> 01:53:33.660 Mac of the Yeta. 01:53:33.660 --> 01:53:36.780 Gonna have to wait and see what happens next in game three. 01:53:36.780 --> 01:53:40.180 Because for right now, it's all about Gino, Pablo, 01:53:40.180 --> 01:53:41.860 other teams elsewhere too. 01:53:41.860 --> 01:53:46.460 Clicks, Rapid, the pace sort of being a little bit more 01:53:46.460 --> 01:53:48.100 passive, but these are the early matches. 01:53:48.100 --> 01:53:49.700 This is what we expect. 01:53:49.700 --> 01:53:55.140 outside of the zone post clicks and rapping. They've garnered a lot of respect for this drop spot. 01:53:55.140 --> 01:54:00.580 They get the whole actual sanctuary, the side as well. You got 27 and Kyle there on the side, 01:54:00.580 --> 01:54:04.740 but they're actually showing clicks and rapping a lot of respect. Maybe that'll change at the 01:54:04.740 --> 01:54:08.580 end of the day, maybe going into game two depending on where you're at on the leaderboard. 01:54:08.580 --> 01:54:11.940 But for clicks and rapping, you really got to take advantage of the amount of freedom you're 01:54:11.940 --> 01:54:16.340 given. I was a really big fan of that quick flash over of the leaderboard though. Seeing 01:54:16.340 --> 01:54:22.340 They were in that third place position after their game one performance because of the successful off-spot. 01:54:22.340 --> 01:54:29.340 So now, can a team like Gino and Pablo also translate that early success into a solid end game finish? 01:54:29.340 --> 01:54:32.340 Because they're going to have to if they want to keep up with the competition. 01:54:32.340 --> 01:54:39.340 And seeing all around, Sharkantini free for now, but with no shadow and Virgo go up that beachside on the Eastern. 01:54:39.340 --> 01:54:44.740 Vico Malibuca still uncontested at the Vico of course they have the game one 01:54:44.740 --> 01:54:49.140 winners of Higgs and Kerb just towards their West and he heard Higgs and Kerb hey 01:54:49.140 --> 01:54:53.020 if they contest us if they try to push us might as well go to LiftyLogic so 01:54:53.020 --> 01:54:57.540 so I don't think Vico Malibuca wanna poke the bear just yet. It's just so hilarious 01:54:57.540 --> 01:55:01.740 because if you ask Kerb anytime throughout the practice room days how 01:55:01.740 --> 01:55:04.820 do you think you're gonna do this weekend? Ah it's cooked! We got Vico Malibuca 01:55:04.820 --> 01:55:07.580 they're right there two-time wearing champions and you know it's just 01:55:07.580 --> 01:55:09.480 like Leven said on the desk earlier during that pre-show. 01:55:09.480 --> 01:55:13.260 You can never believe a single thing these pros say, 01:55:13.260 --> 01:55:15.700 because they've all got their own little schemes 01:55:15.700 --> 01:55:19.140 that they're trying to abide to and sort of map out 01:55:19.140 --> 01:55:22.540 as the day progresses for Curve and Higgs. 01:55:22.540 --> 01:55:25.900 They've got to be a very big target currently 01:55:25.900 --> 01:55:27.020 for the rest of this lobby. 01:55:27.020 --> 01:55:28.540 Yeah, I think it's one of those things 01:55:28.540 --> 01:55:31.700 so where there's so many superstars on at A, 01:55:31.700 --> 01:55:33.820 it's kind of easy to forget about some players 01:55:33.820 --> 01:55:36.100 in some cases, but for Higgs and Curve, 01:55:36.100 --> 01:55:38.500 They've already put themselves on the map in game one. 01:55:38.500 --> 01:55:40.580 And honestly, look at how these positions have changed 01:55:40.580 --> 01:55:41.580 just a little bit. 01:55:41.580 --> 01:55:44.780 Peter Bottenpoie have taken the top side of that mountain 01:55:44.780 --> 01:55:47.540 in back to back games, kind of first in tidy and jewel, 01:55:47.540 --> 01:55:49.260 off of that position. 01:55:49.260 --> 01:55:51.780 And hopefully this time around, instead of just kind of keying 01:55:51.780 --> 01:55:53.660 straight for a fight to try to get that loot, 01:55:53.660 --> 01:55:55.940 maybe they kind of accumulate that surge, 01:55:55.940 --> 01:55:57.940 kind of make the rest of their game easier 01:55:57.940 --> 01:55:58.940 with the start here. 01:55:58.940 --> 01:56:00.500 If Mshari and Salva just weren't 01:56:00.500 --> 01:56:02.540 towards that north side of reality's reign, 01:56:02.540 --> 01:56:04.340 this would be so much less awkward, though, 01:56:04.340 --> 01:56:08.980 for Pete and Poyo because they could potentially wrap around the POI after prioritizing the 01:56:08.980 --> 01:56:09.980 slurp truck. 01:56:09.980 --> 01:56:14.340 Instead, Tidy, Jewel, trying to take advantage, trying to get early surge tags. 01:56:14.340 --> 01:56:19.380 They've already awarded a little bit of that map presence out of Pete and Poyo in that last 01:56:19.380 --> 01:56:20.380 lot. 01:56:20.380 --> 01:56:23.380 He put them into a really, really tough situation where they spent the entire game 01:56:23.380 --> 01:56:27.700 just trying to make up the lost time at the start of it all. 01:56:27.700 --> 01:56:30.820 And then you have other teams like Plakes Frappin, you know, a little bit more 01:56:30.820 --> 01:56:32.620 So we're doing a little bit more quiet to the notion, 01:56:32.620 --> 01:56:35.580 but Gallaght 27, keeping them on their toes. 01:56:35.580 --> 01:56:36.980 Yeah, even hitting a couple of shots. 01:56:36.980 --> 01:56:38.620 It was breaking the shield to wrap it. 01:56:38.620 --> 01:56:42.340 And those little interactions early on in the game 01:56:42.340 --> 01:56:45.180 is kind of what causes a little bit of the avalanche effect. 01:56:45.180 --> 01:56:47.380 If you do get that max ball, you're not really 01:56:47.380 --> 01:56:49.900 able to recover the damage for Serbs. 01:56:49.900 --> 01:56:52.740 Agers and Venno, though, kind of doing what they do best. 01:56:52.740 --> 01:56:54.660 They do land on the north side of the battlefield. 01:56:54.660 --> 01:56:56.100 But just like you saw in game one, 01:56:56.100 --> 01:56:58.380 Venno is not scared to look around, 01:56:58.380 --> 01:57:01.660 whether going for loot, going for damage, or just straight eliminations, 01:57:01.660 --> 01:57:03.660 he's a driving force for this duo. 01:57:04.540 --> 01:57:06.540 Already got their surge base set up. 01:57:06.540 --> 01:57:10.140 Likely just going to continue trying to play through it as Tidy and Jewel. 01:57:10.140 --> 01:57:14.140 Continuing the harp upon Peter, but and for you. 01:57:15.100 --> 01:57:18.300 Not only that, but also just trying to scope out the entire area. 01:57:18.300 --> 01:57:21.660 Fully wary of the fact that might be other teams starting to trickle in. 01:57:21.660 --> 01:57:25.660 Darn Dinesh, not too far away and Tidy and Jewel. 01:57:25.660 --> 01:57:33.660 They are really causing a decent amount of disruption here and kingling and craze also discovering that there are teams already 01:57:33.660 --> 01:57:38.900 Boxed up on their own going to come short and even though Peter bottom player are kind of pushing them off that mountain 01:57:38.900 --> 01:57:41.280 It's not before they actually get all their loops 01:57:41.280 --> 01:57:46.660 Peter bottom player are only getting the mountain where tidy and you are still able to collect everything that they need in terms of 01:57:46.660 --> 01:57:48.660 Loadout, so is he pixie? 01:57:48.660 --> 01:57:52.260 Lately able to kind of rotate away from their initial drop spot 01:57:52.260 --> 01:57:59.300 And I think teams are going to start to learn more and more yes kind of staying in zone has worked so well so far 01:57:59.420 --> 01:58:06.020 But what I'm seeing is if you make it and kind of position yourself in sort of the zone very very early on whether you hold 01:58:06.020 --> 01:58:10.020 Forward not it might be worth the sacrifice of sky scroll take down our guy 01:58:10.020 --> 01:58:16.060 Do I saw it in the feed and now we see it for his hand. I was just our coping and nobody was gonna catch him just 01:58:16.580 --> 01:58:17.940 sitting out 01:58:17.940 --> 01:58:23.740 Almost looked like he wanted that let's play for himself, but yes guys girl not really wants to fold that easily 01:58:25.220 --> 01:58:27.220 Acorn bolts 01:58:27.820 --> 01:58:30.660 Really trying to rain things back in 01:58:33.020 --> 01:58:37.740 Definitely recognizing the fact that there are still some leftovers here at reality's rain 01:58:37.740 --> 01:58:39.900 But this is also a really big turn 01:58:39.900 --> 01:58:43.180 And I think in general for Acorn Jacob because that land reputation 01:58:43.180 --> 01:58:47.940 reputation. They've taken some hits lately and we know exactly how poking of a player 01:58:47.940 --> 01:58:52.420 he really is. The guy is a mastermind when it comes to IVL and he's such an experienced 01:58:52.420 --> 01:58:57.660 bet and yet the LAN results just haven't really translated that success we've seen from him 01:58:57.660 --> 01:58:58.660 online. 01:58:58.660 --> 01:59:02.660 Yes, especially since we know they are the NA major two champs. We know they could 01:59:02.660 --> 01:59:06.020 pack a punch. They just need to be able to pull it together. I think this could 01:59:06.020 --> 01:59:10.100 be the perfect lobby for them to start gaining some traction. Peter Bottenfoil, 01:59:10.100 --> 01:59:16.180 enough disengaged out of realities rain early on and now they find themselves back into that 01:59:16.180 --> 01:59:21.060 POI this time around they'll talk about what do we see four five six teams there now just like 01:59:21.060 --> 01:59:25.220 some of those practice games but it's a little bit more passive teams are realizing how late in 01:59:25.220 --> 01:59:28.900 the game we're actually getting more towards that mid game so we have to be a little bit more 01:59:28.900 --> 01:59:35.300 careful but man talk about Viko and Malibu really going the distance currently trying to get 01:59:35.300 --> 01:59:40.820 the full dead side wrap around and the Analses already kind of touched on it. We are very likely 01:59:40.820 --> 01:59:45.460 going to see teams trying to commit to tanking up some of these early storm takes even going as far 01:59:45.460 --> 01:59:50.340 as to invest into that five tick territory but if you have the heels for it and if you know that 01:59:50.340 --> 01:59:55.540 there's a bending along your directional rotation that makes it all the easier and feasible to 01:59:55.540 --> 01:59:59.300 come by. Yeah especially if you have those uncontested drop spots the amount of gold 01:59:59.300 --> 02:00:02.820 you're able to get kind of hit almost every vending machine on the way. 02:00:02.820 --> 02:00:07.620 Kamihari 88 points, the most eliminations in game one. 02:00:07.620 --> 02:00:12.420 They're only one point shy of Higgs and Curve as of now and it's a team that honestly if they're down 02:00:12.420 --> 02:00:15.940 they know how to come back so if they're in it they probably know how to take a lead here 02:00:15.940 --> 02:00:19.140 so I'll be looking out for them. The rest of game one is Chap and Flixie. 02:00:19.140 --> 02:00:24.020 End up in a box-to-box scenario here against M. Shari and Salvatore and you can kind of see 02:00:24.020 --> 02:00:28.100 they do lack some shields and in my head they're taking a long time to heal up 02:00:28.100 --> 02:00:31.780 So now I'm starting to ask the question, Taco, do they even have extra shields? 02:00:31.780 --> 02:00:34.180 It doesn't seem like it, but even if they do, 02:00:34.180 --> 02:00:38.020 Chad Flix, he's still being rather cautious with the approach, 02:00:38.020 --> 02:00:42.980 largely due to the fact that they only sit 46 above on the search threshold. 02:00:42.980 --> 02:00:47.700 If they have even the slightest misstep, that could put them in a very difficult position 02:00:47.700 --> 02:00:52.340 because you don't want to fall under search, especially not when there's so much of a lobby 02:00:52.340 --> 02:00:56.820 kind of contesting in the same POI, it's just going to make you an open target. 02:00:56.820 --> 02:01:01.140 because Boyle, Peterbott, a team that is struggling with their surge already. 02:01:01.140 --> 02:01:06.700 Those consistent ticks forcing them into a very impulsive decision here. 02:01:06.700 --> 02:01:09.700 They don't care who it is. They're jumping into a box. They're getting ready to fight. 02:01:09.700 --> 02:01:11.260 Yeah, but they're building up too high. 02:01:11.260 --> 02:01:14.940 They're getting a lot of attention from the lobby, both up below, side to side. 02:01:14.940 --> 02:01:17.260 Chap and Flixie, they turn the tables around. 02:01:17.260 --> 02:01:19.140 It was Pete and Boyle looking to push them, 02:01:19.140 --> 02:01:21.300 and now they're pushing back. 02:01:21.300 --> 02:01:26.300 Peterbott has fallen again here to Chap and Flixie this time around. 02:01:26.300 --> 02:01:38.300 And there's only so much left for Pollo to do, really caught in the thick of it, just sitting idly by hoping that Salva and Shari can continue to beat a little bit more of a preoccupation. 02:01:38.300 --> 02:01:46.300 Jack Flixy though, obviously aware of the fact that they've already got one piece to buy here and they're just looking to collect. 02:01:46.300 --> 02:01:48.300 Pollo cannot afford to move. 02:01:48.300 --> 02:01:50.860 Nebby's officially on a pause. 02:01:50.860 --> 02:01:53.860 As we know, they were already down below the damage threshold. 02:01:53.860 --> 02:01:55.900 Peterbots have even more damage. 02:01:55.900 --> 02:01:58.180 So when this next storm surge does pause, 02:01:58.180 --> 02:02:00.940 I got to imagine how far below they're actually going to be. 02:02:00.940 --> 02:02:04.980 And you can see 30 HP, 25 shields, nothing 02:02:04.980 --> 02:02:07.100 to get that back up to tip top shape. 02:02:07.100 --> 02:02:09.900 So he's lurking right now against Mshari and Salvatore 02:02:09.900 --> 02:02:11.820 waiting for them to make a mistake. 02:02:11.820 --> 02:02:13.020 But we know the secret. 02:02:13.020 --> 02:02:14.940 He's not going to get much, even 02:02:14.940 --> 02:02:17.220 if he takes down both of those guys. 02:02:17.220 --> 02:02:23.340 The problem right now is, even if he gets Emshari or Salva, you still have Chap and Flixy 02:02:23.340 --> 02:02:24.500 right there. 02:02:24.500 --> 02:02:30.180 You have to hope that Chap and Flixy are content to an extent with that last elimination refresh 02:02:30.180 --> 02:02:34.660 off onto P that they got enough surge damage, that they feel as though they'd rather just 02:02:34.660 --> 02:02:39.820 spend their time prioritizing the rotate, but they don't have to leave any time soon 02:02:39.820 --> 02:02:42.700 and that's the biggest problem right now for Puyo. 02:02:42.700 --> 02:02:45.860 He has just been stuck all of this time, 02:02:45.860 --> 02:02:49.900 ticking by, leaving him even further and further out. 02:02:52.180 --> 02:02:55.740 And you see, M.Sharian Salvatore kind of rotating around. 02:02:55.740 --> 02:02:57.420 This is kind of these little opportunities 02:02:57.420 --> 02:02:59.420 that Poyo is kind of looking for. 02:02:59.420 --> 02:03:02.260 Somebody to kind of get hungry for some loot, farm up, 02:03:02.260 --> 02:03:05.140 try to find a safe haven, but then they run into him. 02:03:05.140 --> 02:03:07.780 But M.Sharian Salvatore, they've landed at this drop 02:03:07.780 --> 02:03:08.620 from the start. 02:03:08.620 --> 02:03:10.940 They probably know teams are already positioned over there, 02:03:10.940 --> 02:03:15.100 especially Chap and Flixy, so they're not really wanting to go in that direction. 02:03:15.100 --> 02:03:18.620 But they are moving closer and closer to prize and months while already position up. 02:03:18.620 --> 02:03:21.380 You see in the distance, acorn and bolts in their tower, and 02:03:21.380 --> 02:03:23.580 even cringe and twire getting closer and closer. 02:03:23.580 --> 02:03:29.220 It's like every corner of reality's reign has just got a team based up somewhere. 02:03:29.220 --> 02:03:33.500 Even if Foyo manages to survive the threat that's looming right now with 02:03:33.500 --> 02:03:36.300 Chap and Flixy, it might not matter because after the fact, 02:03:36.300 --> 02:03:40.700 there's just several other strong contenders left trying to take him out. 02:03:40.700 --> 02:03:46.420 Janice and Rax though it's got to feel great getting off to a top five star from that first lobby 02:03:46.420 --> 02:03:53.980 But Janice obviously he's been here so many times before he knows just what kind of a marathon is involved with this two-day format 02:03:53.980 --> 02:04:00.820 And Rax though you really just have to respect how heavily the gentle mates are showing up for him big time here 02:04:00.820 --> 02:04:05.380 Yeah, and they got a lot of time here coming in these chop-chops who are in five above the damage threshold 02:04:05.380 --> 02:04:16.380 There are going to be some teams in their path, but as long as they're very very careful and kind of aware where teams are positioned around the Green Hill zone, they shouldn't be okay, but I did see in the feed talk. 02:04:16.380 --> 02:04:26.380 Oh, Pollo has been taken down. So another game with Peter Bottenpollo going down relatively early, not just in the game, but compared to the rest of the players at their POI. 02:04:26.380 --> 02:04:29.380 Well, you called in. We'll get a chance to actually review it. 02:04:29.380 --> 02:04:33.380 it, boy oh, only one over God, just gonna get the chance to use it. 02:04:33.380 --> 02:04:38.020 Pablo and Chino immediately collapsing the shots from afar. 02:04:38.020 --> 02:04:44.020 He never even really had a fighting chance there, but other teams definitely still looking 02:04:44.020 --> 02:04:45.860 to try and play things out. 02:04:45.860 --> 02:04:50.060 And Shari and Salva, they've at least had the opportunity to rebuild some of their 02:04:50.060 --> 02:04:56.180 shield issues, but with only one damage above and Ryze-Maz on the other side of 02:04:56.180 --> 02:04:57.700 their wall. 02:04:57.700 --> 02:05:00.740 This is extremely problematic right now. 02:05:00.740 --> 02:05:03.380 And for Ryzen Muzz, you just have to expect 02:05:03.380 --> 02:05:06.140 that they really understand that they have 02:05:06.140 --> 02:05:08.140 the control space right now. 02:05:08.140 --> 02:05:11.260 And especially since they know they're 261 above the damage 02:05:11.260 --> 02:05:12.980 threshold, you don't necessarily 02:05:12.980 --> 02:05:15.820 hear that storm surge is affecting another player, 02:05:15.820 --> 02:05:18.580 but you will hear those shields crack. 02:05:18.580 --> 02:05:21.180 And that's going to be a huge giveaway if any team starts 02:05:21.180 --> 02:05:23.700 to position themselves closer and closer to not only Muzz 02:05:23.700 --> 02:05:26.740 and Ryzen but any team that may be above that damage 02:05:26.740 --> 02:05:29.740 threshold and the zone is even pushing them away. So they're just waiting for 02:05:29.740 --> 02:05:33.220 that last possible moment possibly zone on their back to use that shot way but 02:05:33.220 --> 02:05:40.180 another team talk of swizzy pixie 64 below. And it's just like not that much 02:05:40.180 --> 02:05:44.700 damage when you really think about it but it's just so complicated to find 02:05:44.700 --> 02:05:49.460 that damage in a set lobby of this caliber. Pixie and Swizzy they're 02:05:49.460 --> 02:05:53.700 hoping to try and build up some shots here but they don't want overexposed 02:05:53.700 --> 02:05:59.780 themselves. They're both just so weak that if they get beamed, they're just gone. They are eliminated 02:05:59.780 --> 02:06:05.780 and it's going to be even worse still because Pixie immediately removed from the lobby here. 02:06:05.780 --> 02:06:11.540 Just too much damage starting to factor in. Swizzing no kills in sight. Serves might get it done. 02:06:11.540 --> 02:06:17.220 Yeah, I only has two more. Take seven seconds. He gets above the damage threshold but instantly 02:06:17.220 --> 02:06:19.660 and falls further below. 02:06:19.660 --> 02:06:22.180 Taco, this is really going to show 02:06:22.180 --> 02:06:25.260 how tough this lobby actually is. 02:06:25.260 --> 02:06:27.660 Even if you find yourself in a comfortable spot 02:06:27.660 --> 02:06:30.020 in toward zone, if you're above the damage threshold, 02:06:30.020 --> 02:06:31.980 it almost doesn't matter. 02:06:31.980 --> 02:06:33.220 It's almost like you just have to treat 02:06:33.220 --> 02:06:35.180 every single lobby as if it's the first one 02:06:35.180 --> 02:06:38.940 because things are fluctuating so quickly 02:06:38.940 --> 02:06:41.540 for everyone that's involved right now. 02:06:41.540 --> 02:06:43.660 Tini and Shark though, still hoping to have 02:06:43.660 --> 02:06:44.900 a slightly better performance 02:06:44.900 --> 02:06:48.100 than what went down in that last match up. 02:06:48.100 --> 02:06:50.780 The Lurks, definitely not panning out in their favor, 02:06:50.780 --> 02:06:53.860 but they might be able to chase down Skye's scroll. 02:06:53.860 --> 02:06:55.900 Realistically, it's all about maintaining 02:06:55.900 --> 02:06:58.700 that little bit of elevation, 02:06:58.700 --> 02:07:01.340 trying to utilize it to their advantage. 02:07:01.340 --> 02:07:03.500 Next overdrive, you send them. 02:07:03.500 --> 02:07:05.820 They get deeper into the edge of the zone, 02:07:05.820 --> 02:07:08.380 but for A's gingling, it's Skye's scroll. 02:07:08.380 --> 02:07:10.900 Fortunately for Teenie and Shark, Skrull, 02:07:10.900 --> 02:07:12.540 caught dealing with YRX and Randu, 02:07:12.540 --> 02:07:14.780 so they'll get their chance to move in. 02:07:14.780 --> 02:07:16.480 Yeah, you can kind of see about the idea. 02:07:16.480 --> 02:07:17.880 Teenian Shark, we're going to have to scroll. 02:07:17.880 --> 02:07:19.920 They were the ones who not on the practice field, 02:07:19.920 --> 02:07:22.780 but landed a ton of damage on the way on over. 02:07:22.780 --> 02:07:24.400 Teenie finally gets the elimination. 02:07:24.400 --> 02:07:27.400 Fina for King, who actually went down in the zone. 02:07:27.400 --> 02:07:31.200 This five take actually causing players a few nightmares here, 02:07:31.200 --> 02:07:32.680 at least more than they would expect. 02:07:32.680 --> 02:07:34.960 The Shark Teenie rotating in side by side. 02:07:34.960 --> 02:07:36.320 You see Skye and Skrull. 02:07:36.320 --> 02:07:38.480 And even if they don't found a comfortable spot yet, 02:07:38.480 --> 02:07:40.280 you see how crowded and congested 02:07:40.280 --> 02:07:41.560 the zone is actually getting. 02:07:41.560 --> 02:07:43.400 Yeah, Skye and Skrull, Shark Teenie. 02:07:43.400 --> 02:07:44.960 They're not really interested in what he has. 02:07:44.960 --> 02:07:45.800 Yes, he had to fake it. 02:07:45.800 --> 02:07:46.460 Avoid it. 02:07:46.460 --> 02:07:50.040 Alavuca, though, liked to himself, 02:07:50.040 --> 02:07:54.080 trying to even see if he can avoid becoming the focal point 02:07:54.080 --> 02:07:56.400 as this lobby fresher. 02:07:56.400 --> 02:07:58.240 He's got a little bit of space carved out here. 02:07:58.240 --> 02:08:01.520 He's at least elevated enough to avoid some of the congestion 02:08:01.520 --> 02:08:02.640 that's going to start cooling. 02:08:02.640 --> 02:08:04.600 But when you're making your move inwards 02:08:04.600 --> 02:08:05.920 from that backside of the zone, 02:08:05.920 --> 02:08:08.280 other teams are bound to recognize the fact 02:08:08.280 --> 02:08:11.640 that you're going as a lone man. 02:08:11.640 --> 02:08:16.640 It does have a decent amount of materials, but it's a max pull. 02:08:16.640 --> 02:08:18.640 One blessing comes with another curse. 02:08:18.640 --> 02:08:20.640 Being a solo, this one's going to be hard. 02:08:20.640 --> 02:08:23.640 You see Muzz towards the top, getting eliminated by Syed. 02:08:23.640 --> 02:08:25.640 We saw Ryze go down in the feed early on. 02:08:25.640 --> 02:08:30.640 Higgs without perps, so our game one winners already have their backs up against the wall. 02:08:30.640 --> 02:08:33.640 And Taco would still just take one point different from us. 02:08:33.640 --> 02:08:36.640 Higgs, a bad peek all the way across the map. 02:08:36.640 --> 02:08:38.640 And now Storm Surge is active. 02:08:38.640 --> 02:08:40.640 When it rains, it definitely pours. 02:08:40.640 --> 02:08:45.640 He is just hoping that he can even make it out. 02:08:45.640 --> 02:08:48.640 The way things are starting to shape up here though, Jacob, 02:08:48.640 --> 02:08:51.640 he is working against the clock, 02:08:51.640 --> 02:08:54.640 running directly into where Ari and Gammy are at. 02:08:54.640 --> 02:08:56.640 Gets a decent shot on the fault of them, 02:08:56.640 --> 02:08:58.640 but still sitting by the low 02:08:58.640 --> 02:09:00.640 and that surge is continuing, taking away at him. 02:09:00.640 --> 02:09:02.640 They're going to restore enough shield, 02:09:02.640 --> 02:09:04.640 but Ari and Gammy take a little bit of revenge here 02:09:04.640 --> 02:09:07.640 as the rest of the lobby also looks back at Higgs. 02:09:07.640 --> 02:09:11.720 At least, at least they have that game one victory. 02:09:11.720 --> 02:09:14.440 So first place might get taken from them, 02:09:14.440 --> 02:09:16.640 but they shouldn't far too far down the lead 02:09:16.640 --> 02:09:19.280 before the Sky and Skull find a key elimination here 02:09:19.280 --> 02:09:20.120 on the tidy. 02:09:20.120 --> 02:09:21.480 That's their second one of the game, 02:09:21.480 --> 02:09:22.920 but they get a full chunk. 02:09:22.920 --> 02:09:26.320 You gotta imagine all the maps that Skull just got here, 02:09:26.320 --> 02:09:28.480 and they're above the damage threshold. 02:09:28.480 --> 02:09:31.080 It's top 24 placement points will start to come in, 02:09:31.080 --> 02:09:32.280 and they're gonna get even greater 02:09:32.280 --> 02:09:33.760 with every team that falls. 02:09:33.760 --> 02:09:35.480 They're gonna need to split some of that material soon 02:09:35.480 --> 02:09:39.560 Enough though, just a really quick look back. 02:09:39.560 --> 02:09:43.280 Now Skye and Skull were able to establish their last refresh, 02:09:43.280 --> 02:09:48.360 but the way the lobby is continuing to just pull 02:09:48.360 --> 02:09:50.120 further and further away. 02:09:50.120 --> 02:09:53.240 These zones are not making it easy for anyone. 02:09:53.240 --> 02:09:56.960 Yeah, luckily though, it's not too many various elevation 02:09:56.960 --> 02:09:59.000 chains if you are going to the shore side. 02:09:59.000 --> 02:10:00.880 There is going to be some water in the mix, 02:10:00.880 --> 02:10:03.800 but it's not too drastic that you can't fight your way out 02:10:03.800 --> 02:10:07.160 of it is Kami Hari officially take that first place spot. 02:10:07.160 --> 02:10:08.760 Sky and scroll still looking good. 02:10:08.760 --> 02:10:11.760 Honestly, much better than we saw not too long ago, 02:10:11.760 --> 02:10:14.400 where they were missing huge chunks of HP and shield. 02:10:14.400 --> 02:10:15.880 Now, the biggest thing you gotta worry about 02:10:15.880 --> 02:10:17.200 is the materials. 02:10:17.200 --> 02:10:19.640 Do they have enough to continue basically full tarp 02:10:19.640 --> 02:10:21.080 and get to the front side of zone 02:10:21.080 --> 02:10:23.760 as high ground goes through a whole other team? 02:10:23.760 --> 02:10:25.960 It's Klix in rapid, if you look up. 02:10:25.960 --> 02:10:28.000 It's not the first time we've seen Klix in rapid 02:10:28.000 --> 02:10:29.480 try to establish hype, 02:10:29.480 --> 02:10:31.000 but now the question is whether or not 02:10:31.000 --> 02:10:32.560 they'll be able to hold it down, 02:10:32.560 --> 02:10:35.080 Making their way over towards frontside, looking back, 02:10:35.080 --> 02:10:37.320 trying to see if they can get a little bit of pressure, 02:10:37.320 --> 02:10:41.680 application, prevent the lobby from challenging them just yet. 02:10:41.680 --> 02:10:43.680 And Klicks with a big shot there, 02:10:43.680 --> 02:10:45.240 gonna get a knock on to Venom. 02:10:45.240 --> 02:10:48.080 Ager's also eliminated. 02:10:48.080 --> 02:10:50.200 Those little peace stops just buying them 02:10:50.200 --> 02:10:52.040 so much more time here on High Ground. 02:10:52.040 --> 02:10:54.120 You know, it was Basie, I know he was trolling. 02:10:54.120 --> 02:10:56.920 He said, game three win, Klicks in rapid. 02:10:56.920 --> 02:10:59.880 He might have been a profit for the actual tournament. 02:10:59.880 --> 02:11:02.160 Six elimination so far. 02:11:02.160 --> 02:11:07.320 They're on high ground, and it doesn't look like too many teams have an opportunity to look up. 02:11:07.320 --> 02:11:09.400 There's no recycled builds down below. 02:11:09.400 --> 02:11:12.040 They was feeling the pain from Maros already out. 02:11:12.040 --> 02:11:14.280 You can thank Sky and Skrull for that one. 02:11:14.280 --> 02:11:20.480 Sky, Skrull, trying to deal with 80 fast goal down this low ground position. 02:11:20.480 --> 02:11:24.200 When Elevator just one layer up above that ultimate long, 02:11:24.200 --> 02:11:30.080 trying to still see whether or not they'd be able to pick apart anybody else that looks a little bit worse from where here, 02:11:30.080 --> 02:11:32.080 but they have gotten an opportunity to heal, 02:11:32.080 --> 02:11:35.120 clicks, wrap, and manage to connect to the building's overhead. 02:11:35.120 --> 02:11:36.800 That's going to buy them so much time 02:11:36.800 --> 02:11:37.620 when taking the material. 02:11:37.620 --> 02:11:41.360 Bananas, rats, still fucking still moving forward. 02:11:41.360 --> 02:11:43.640 Yeah, it's kind of full-tarping over. 02:11:43.640 --> 02:11:45.640 Literally not taking any chances here. 02:11:45.640 --> 02:11:47.840 And that's why you see him kind of popping out the window, 02:11:47.840 --> 02:11:49.800 realizing you can't build a wall there. 02:11:49.800 --> 02:11:52.520 Better safe than sorry as he tries to lurk back. 02:11:52.520 --> 02:11:54.360 Try to reform as much as possible. 02:11:54.360 --> 02:11:55.640 He is inside of the building. 02:11:55.640 --> 02:11:57.200 Toyota humor in there as well. 02:11:57.200 --> 02:11:58.800 And Cryptid is moving by. 02:11:58.800 --> 02:12:01.040 This is becoming more and more of a dangerous situation. 02:12:01.040 --> 02:12:04.160 But I'm getting real nervous right now for Klicks and Rapid 02:12:04.160 --> 02:12:07.680 because teams were definitely posturing to try and overtake 02:12:07.680 --> 02:12:08.160 high. 02:12:08.160 --> 02:12:10.240 Toyota eliminates Rapid. 02:12:10.240 --> 02:12:13.400 You are still up above Klicks forced to drop. 02:12:13.400 --> 02:12:15.400 He won't be able to reestablish in short. 02:12:15.400 --> 02:12:17.560 Tini, they've spotted out the fact 02:12:17.560 --> 02:12:21.040 that there is a big scuffle taking place on that high ground. 02:12:21.040 --> 02:12:22.680 They're also looking to make their move. 02:12:22.680 --> 02:12:24.680 And now Klicks has a solo. 02:12:24.680 --> 02:12:27.000 Zero materials to his name. 02:12:27.000 --> 02:12:34.000 The force to just lie in wait almost gets Teenie in the mix up here, but Teenie returning fire immediately! 02:12:34.000 --> 02:12:35.000 Big elimination there! 02:12:35.000 --> 02:12:38.000 Just the sliver of HP is all he needed to take him down. 02:12:38.000 --> 02:12:42.000 But I thought it was good as soon as Teenie gets that elimination he goes down to Yuma. 02:12:42.000 --> 02:12:46.000 Toyota and Yuma are taking over this game. 02:12:46.000 --> 02:12:51.000 They are taking apart pieces of some of our Titan team we expected to see today. 02:12:51.000 --> 02:12:53.000 But Sky and Skrull are still up into the putt. 02:12:53.000 --> 02:12:57.000 The trend is there, but he has played hide and seek only for so long. 02:12:57.000 --> 02:12:58.500 They find Pablo instead. 02:12:58.500 --> 02:12:59.300 That's six. 02:12:59.300 --> 02:13:02.300 He's having a shit up this game as they move into the top three. 02:13:02.300 --> 02:13:03.800 But just look at the movement. 02:13:03.800 --> 02:13:05.800 Skrull is going every which direction. 02:13:05.800 --> 02:13:08.500 Raxian is already been sure which way to turn. 02:13:08.500 --> 02:13:10.800 Raxian is now seeing if they can close in. 02:13:10.800 --> 02:13:13.100 Skyscroll is still matching up all of them back, 02:13:13.100 --> 02:13:15.000 where Raxian doesn't have any built. 02:13:15.000 --> 02:13:17.500 Trying to farm some form of mats off of the tree here, 02:13:17.500 --> 02:13:19.200 but Raxia is understanding. 02:13:19.200 --> 02:13:20.600 Now he's got a little other response. 02:13:20.600 --> 02:13:24.920 I won't matter though, but I'm here to watch for threat, and skies grow up breaking through. 02:13:24.920 --> 02:13:29.560 It's Koyota and Yuma though, they're the most healthy in this situation. 02:13:29.560 --> 02:13:34.520 Remember the heartbreak at EWC, they win the game, they don't qualify, 02:13:34.520 --> 02:13:40.280 and this is a new chapter for them to be one situation against one of EU's best teams. 02:13:40.280 --> 02:13:44.680 And they make it through easy 10 eliminations for the win. 02:13:44.680 --> 02:13:49.320 Look, if you're just gonna ask Yuma and Koyota to put on an aim course, 02:13:49.320 --> 02:13:52.440 They're going to deliver on it every single time. 02:13:52.440 --> 02:13:57.480 A clean close here in Game 2 to ensure that Asia gets their mark 02:13:57.480 --> 02:14:00.040 on the 20-26 global championship. 02:14:05.880 --> 02:14:09.320 Toyota in Europe, please stand up. 02:14:09.320 --> 02:14:12.360 Let the crowd here in Antwerp see you. 02:14:12.360 --> 02:14:15.880 First of all, Toyota, where did you guys know 02:14:15.880 --> 02:14:19.880 I know it was the right time to challenge Klicks and Rapid for heights. 02:14:19.880 --> 02:14:24.520 When did you know you were going to challenge Rapido? 02:14:24.520 --> 02:14:25.920 When we were fighting. 02:14:25.920 --> 02:14:27.480 Of course, it was a good thing. 02:14:27.480 --> 02:14:33.080 But I thought I could do it directly from the top. 02:14:33.080 --> 02:14:36.120 And I was strong, so I went to the high ground. 02:14:36.120 --> 02:14:39.720 We saw them fighting after we used the shotgun. 02:14:39.720 --> 02:14:41.720 We saw that, OK, there's maybe a good chance now. 02:14:41.720 --> 02:14:44.280 We felt very confident about attacking them at this moment. 02:14:44.280 --> 02:14:47.080 And it was such a great move to make. 02:14:47.080 --> 02:14:54.080 If you saw a 702-odd actor scared in Game 1, Yuma, how did you act without fear? 02:14:54.080 --> 02:14:57.960 I think it was a very scary moment. 02:14:57.960 --> 02:15:02.080 How did you overcome this fear? 02:15:02.080 --> 02:15:04.840 Did you decide that? 02:15:04.840 --> 02:15:07.000 Well, playing is a real game. 02:15:07.000 --> 02:15:08.320 It's like playing a game. 02:15:08.320 --> 02:15:12.640 If you feel like you're playing, you can play tonight. 02:15:12.640 --> 02:15:16.480 Yeah, we did basically what we do during training, 02:15:16.480 --> 02:15:17.880 during scrims, and we decided, yeah, 02:15:17.880 --> 02:15:20.680 you know what?

And it's 02:21:42.860 --> 02:21:43.660 fun. Everybody coming into 02:21:43.760 --> 02:21:44.260 this competition expected 02:21:44.360 --> 02:21:46.160 sky and both you have to 02:21:46.260 --> 02:21:47.460 fight the likes of Peter 02:21:47.560 --> 02:21:48.060 Bond play. Oswald. We've seen 02:21:48.160 --> 02:21:48.660 what Peter Bond player is 02:21:48.760 --> 02:21:49.500 doing. Oswald. They're not 02:21:49.600 --> 02:21:50.460 actually running at 02:21:50.560 --> 02:21:51.060 Sky's. Well, they're not 02:21:51.160 --> 02:21:52.560 actually taking that flight 02:21:52.660 --> 02:21:53.560 to a skying school that's 02:21:53.660 --> 02:21:55.060 going to be able to make it 02:21:55.160 --> 02:21:55.600 on small. It's a team you 02:21:55.700 --> 02:21:56.500 can almost guarantee to be in 02:21:56.600 --> 02:21:59.940 every single end game if 02:22:00.040 --> 02:22:01.800 that space the case. And I 02:22:01.900 --> 02:22:02.540 feel like if anybody at 02:22:02.640 --> 02:22:03.540 home kind of had this 02:22:03.640 --> 02:22:04.580 insight into this 02:22:04.680 --> 02:22:05.280 competition, they would have 02:22:05.280 --> 02:22:11.920 I'm just gonna get to play out all 12 games. How could you not put them? Yeah with how they have played this year 02:22:11.920 --> 02:22:18.560 I'm sure sky and scroll fans will be jumping for joy with just how that game looked and if that's a sign of things to come 02:22:18.600 --> 02:22:22.740 These guys might be lifting that trophy at the end of the 12th game. Dude, you got to think about it, right? 02:22:22.740 --> 02:22:27.200 They missed out on winning by just one game in the final game of the tournament 02:22:27.200 --> 02:22:31.800 And that just has to have lit that that fuel that fire back in summit, right? 02:22:31.800 --> 02:22:36.440 Like to see them in high spirit to see them doing well after that again. No, so good to praise 02:22:36.440 --> 02:22:37.600 There was just two games 02:22:37.600 --> 02:22:42.920 I didn't want to go back to the old leaderboard though to continue kind of breaking down what we did have or what we've been 02:22:42.920 --> 02:22:46.800 Seeing out of just game number two as we bring that back up 02:22:46.800 --> 02:22:49.280 Let's get all these names that are continuing to shift 02:22:49.280 --> 02:22:56.160 I mean look we saw a curve and Hakes win game at number one, but then had you know again a rocky game 02:22:56.160 --> 02:23:00.000 You know the it's kind of what you talked about left the like ebb and flow of the game 02:23:00.000 --> 02:23:07.640 But we got to go top. Let's talk about Janice and Rax suddenly finding themselves at the top of the leaderboard 02:23:08.160 --> 02:23:13.040 You can start to hear the fans they they've chosen. They've got their favorite duo 02:23:13.040 --> 02:23:16.760 I want to talk about yeah, that's the back like why are they actually in first place obviously? 02:23:16.760 --> 02:23:19.560 It's only been two games. It's been pretty self-explanatory like oh, yeah, dog 02:23:19.560 --> 02:23:21.120 But if they're in first place, they're obviously doing well 02:23:21.120 --> 02:23:25.760 But they're currently the only team that actually made it into the top 10 and both of those first two games 02:23:25.760 --> 02:23:33.000 There's of course, why they're sitting up there in that first place, but that just kind of speaks to how tough this competition has already showed itself to be 02:23:33.400 --> 02:23:39.320 All other 49 teams have not been able to kind of showcase that consistency like Anna's and Rack them 02:23:39.320 --> 02:23:43.160 And that's what makes it weird about coming to an event like this something because obviously the competition 02:23:43.160 --> 02:23:47.080 It just rises so much that all of these teams are going to find it very very difficult to be 02:23:47.320 --> 02:23:49.520 Consisted in all of their games for those games 02:23:49.520 --> 02:23:52.280 We can make it to the end game you have to make the most out of them 02:23:52.280 --> 02:23:56.280 because in reality you're not going to be able to make it to every single end game in a competition like this. 02:23:56.280 --> 02:24:01.000 Yeah, great first two games for Italian Fortnite and other CDMA fans in French for an hour. 02:24:01.000 --> 02:24:02.400 Juntun will join with that one. 02:24:02.400 --> 02:24:08.200 Look, when you're a player who's running his racks, he's had as much hype as he's had this year, right? 02:24:08.200 --> 02:24:12.000 A lot of people were very critical at the start of the year as far as some of the decisions he made, 02:24:12.000 --> 02:24:13.600 as far as who he was playing with, right? 02:24:13.600 --> 02:24:16.560 He was chopping and changing quite a lot with his duo partners, 02:24:16.560 --> 02:24:20.160 he's landed with Yannis, and to be performing like this even in the first two games, 02:24:20.160 --> 02:24:24.720 The reaction, when they went down from Yanis, was what I was really happy about. 02:24:24.720 --> 02:24:28.160 The way he was so excited, infu-daping, looking at him like, 02:24:28.160 --> 02:24:32.960 this is your moment, man, you're playing amazing, very excited about these two right now. 02:24:32.960 --> 02:24:37.440 Oh man, so many more names to discuss. Let's go to Klicks and Rapid. 02:24:37.440 --> 02:24:44.160 Man, they had height up in eighth zone and, you know, as much as I love Klicks and Venno, 02:24:44.160 --> 02:24:47.760 Klicks did get a little bit of a shutdown onto Venno in that last game, 02:24:47.760 --> 02:24:52.640 But then it ultimately was Criota and Yuma who pushed them out of that high ground and went on to win the game 02:24:52.640 --> 02:24:59.400 But kind of what you're talking about that you can't really expect to play every single game to its length 02:24:59.400 --> 02:25:04.760 So to see them kind of make it deep into the game find those eliminations we're starting to build up on that consistency 02:25:04.760 --> 02:25:09.800 Yeah, I mean a great strategy complex rapid obviously secure and hide at any point in the game means you did something right 02:25:09.800 --> 02:25:11.640 It's just all about defending it here for them 02:25:11.640 --> 02:25:13.640 If they were able to actually go ahead and fend off 02:25:13.640 --> 02:25:15.280 while I took for Yoda and Yuma, 02:25:15.280 --> 02:25:17.120 then they probably would have been the ones 02:25:17.120 --> 02:25:18.640 that actually ended up winning this game. 02:25:18.640 --> 02:25:20.240 But even so, even though they didn't win the game, 02:25:20.240 --> 02:25:21.400 I mean, look how well they did, right? 02:25:21.400 --> 02:25:22.600 The eliminations are there for them. 02:25:22.600 --> 02:25:24.600 The placement was obviously there for them as well. 02:25:24.600 --> 02:25:25.760 There's a little bit of a misstep 02:25:25.760 --> 02:25:28.120 in actually going to go ahead and defending that higher ground 02:25:28.120 --> 02:25:29.200 was pretty much their demise, 02:25:29.200 --> 02:25:30.840 but still a great game number two. 02:25:30.840 --> 02:25:32.440 They play every single game out like that. 02:25:32.440 --> 02:25:33.440 We're gonna top five. 02:25:34.440 --> 02:25:38.320 I mean, again, speaking of people with lots of fans, 02:25:38.320 --> 02:25:39.800 Kriks obviously is one of them. 02:25:39.800 --> 02:25:42.760 They will be very ecstatic with what we're seeing. 02:25:42.760 --> 02:25:43.920 The signs are there. 02:25:43.920 --> 02:25:46.200 Again, when we're talking about some of the best in the teams, 02:25:46.200 --> 02:25:49.080 the people who have the best chance of doing something, 02:25:49.080 --> 02:25:50.240 you have to look and pick some up 02:25:50.240 --> 02:25:53.080 as moving their way into that category. 02:25:53.080 --> 02:25:54.920 And that was, again, just game number two, right? 02:25:54.920 --> 02:25:56.560 Now we're kind of getting into the point. 02:25:56.560 --> 02:25:58.200 We're about to go into game number three. 02:25:58.200 --> 02:26:00.840 We've had these kind of two failure games. 02:26:00.840 --> 02:26:02.600 Now it's really time to bring everything up, 02:26:02.600 --> 02:26:04.920 because we're starting to hit the halfway point. 02:26:04.920 --> 02:26:06.920 We cannot be making these types of mistakes. 02:26:06.920 --> 02:26:11.680 But with that being said, I hear game number three is ready. 02:26:11.680 --> 02:26:13.440 So it's gone over to your casters. 02:26:14.800 --> 02:26:16.760 I gotta agree right there with Sieg Taco. 02:26:16.760 --> 02:26:18.480 You can't be making these kind of mistakes 02:26:18.480 --> 02:26:20.080 for the rest of the tournament. 02:26:20.080 --> 02:26:22.600 Maybe you could have one more kind of feeler game out 02:26:22.600 --> 02:26:23.560 for game three here, 02:26:23.560 --> 02:26:26.840 because then we're 25% of the way through this tournament. 02:26:26.840 --> 02:26:28.760 You gotta realize it's more of a marathon 02:26:28.760 --> 02:26:29.840 instead of a foot race. 02:26:29.840 --> 02:26:31.440 And there goes the next game. 02:26:31.440 --> 02:26:32.680 Tie up those laces. 02:26:32.680 --> 02:26:33.800 Let's get going. 02:26:36.920 --> 02:26:53.160 The thing that's catching me off here though Jacob is you guys are saying mistakes. I think 02:26:53.160 --> 02:26:58.040 that this is just the rest of the lobby not only playing catch-up for what's been taking 02:26:58.040 --> 02:27:03.240 place throughout the course of this year but also just forcing unnatural responses. 02:27:03.240 --> 02:27:05.640 Again, players have been harping on the fact 02:27:05.640 --> 02:27:08.280 that they weren't sure what to actually expect 02:27:08.280 --> 02:27:11.760 inside of the practice room until the day actually arrived. 02:27:11.760 --> 02:27:15.160 And here on day one, things have certainly not gone away 02:27:15.160 --> 02:27:18.080 that he or Boyle would have initially intended. 02:27:18.080 --> 02:27:20.080 Yeah, they feel like they're one of the only teams 02:27:20.080 --> 02:27:22.040 out of this round that's not necessarily 02:27:22.040 --> 02:27:23.440 getting the chance to play. 02:27:23.440 --> 02:27:25.680 We've seen Sky and Skrull 116 points 02:27:25.680 --> 02:27:27.200 make more than just an end game. 02:27:27.200 --> 02:27:29.720 And Shari's salvator, even in that last game 02:27:29.720 --> 02:27:31.280 where we saw they had nothing 02:27:31.280 --> 02:27:32.640 and then we kind of tuned back in with them, 02:27:32.640 --> 02:27:35.080 and they had something, so it's just interesting now, 02:27:35.080 --> 02:27:37.680 but you see Skye and Skrull, this is the same loop half 02:27:37.680 --> 02:27:39.520 that Peter, Pop, and Foyo have been taking 02:27:39.520 --> 02:27:40.920 the two previous games. 02:27:40.920 --> 02:27:43.200 They have stolen away the opportunity 02:27:43.200 --> 02:27:46.040 to move around reality-train from Skye and Skrull, 02:27:46.040 --> 02:27:47.280 but they're much quicker to the punch. 02:27:47.280 --> 02:27:49.360 They're already up on the top of that mountain. 02:27:49.360 --> 02:27:51.960 A little bit of a flip of the script here, if you will, 02:27:51.960 --> 02:27:54.560 but look at where Tidy is at. 02:27:54.560 --> 02:27:57.840 That has been the constant thorn in the side 02:27:57.840 --> 02:27:59.360 for Pete and Foyo. 02:27:59.360 --> 02:28:01.080 Every single time that they've opted to try 02:28:01.080 --> 02:28:05.680 go for this hillside. They have had to deal with the likes of tidy and jewel. 02:28:06.080 --> 02:28:09.880 Except this time, tidy, he doesn't seem like he's all that set up. 02:28:10.320 --> 02:28:14.320 He's still waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike and whether or 02:28:14.320 --> 02:28:18.360 not he's actually able to land the shot. That is going to be the ultimate 02:28:18.360 --> 02:28:22.000 difference maker. But this is clearly going to be a bit of a time sink here. 02:28:22.000 --> 02:28:26.160 Tidy is waiting for that chance. Yeah, the biggest difference right now 02:28:26.280 --> 02:28:29.920 when Peter bottom poyo pushed on over. It was a little bit later on second 02:28:29.920 --> 02:28:35.760 still it's late around the game but you see the stone sanctum fight still going down Brazil won it 02:28:35.760 --> 02:28:41.920 in game number one Gino Pablo one game two and they already solidified another elimination but even 02:28:41.920 --> 02:28:47.680 that is triple contested but as I was saying Skye and Skrull they actually landed at the mountain 02:28:47.680 --> 02:28:52.960 almost directly trying to take away Lu from Tadeon Jules and hey winning those immediate 50 50s 02:28:52.960 --> 02:28:56.720 if anything is still going to be a huge swing of confidence. 02:28:57.520 --> 02:29:00.000 Quick glimpse of chop-chop like your P.O.Y. 02:29:00.000 --> 02:29:03.720 Yannis and Rats obviously having a lot of success early on. 02:29:04.400 --> 02:29:06.560 The day one, but Leo on Romero. 02:29:07.400 --> 02:29:10.240 A little bit tied up here with Huddy and Fishy. 02:29:10.840 --> 02:29:14.680 A couple of rumors whether or not Leo on Romero would actually stick to it. 02:29:14.920 --> 02:29:17.480 Contesting Wonky Lanner if this was going to be a clean split 02:29:17.480 --> 02:29:19.320 or if they were going to go somewhere else entirely. 02:29:19.320 --> 02:29:23.480 All of those options still up in the air, but at least we're right now. 02:29:23.480 --> 02:29:27.400 Vlamato and Lewa seem very intent on forcing that engagement. 02:29:27.400 --> 02:29:30.760 Yeah, depending on the first two games, sometimes you feel like you might not have 02:29:30.760 --> 02:29:31.760 no other play. 02:29:31.760 --> 02:29:34.840 Maybe you feel like you were giving it up a little bit too easy, and so they're 02:29:34.840 --> 02:29:37.760 trying to turn the tide up that whole scenario. 02:29:37.760 --> 02:29:40.960 You don't respect earned, not given, so you gotta make sure to fight for every 02:29:40.960 --> 02:29:41.960 inch. 02:29:41.960 --> 02:29:45.400 And if you can't see in the feed, Romero is gonna go down at Wampyland, and so 02:29:45.400 --> 02:29:46.400 is Lewa. 02:29:46.400 --> 02:29:49.240 But Viko and Malibuca HQ encrypted. 02:29:49.240 --> 02:29:51.040 This is something I kind of expect to see, 02:29:51.040 --> 02:29:53.160 especially since going into the tournament, 02:29:53.160 --> 02:29:54.520 HQ and encrypted thought they were going 02:29:54.520 --> 02:29:55.800 to be contested through and through. 02:29:55.800 --> 02:29:57.760 And this is what Viko and Malibuca need. 02:29:57.760 --> 02:29:59.840 They have had constant issues of trying 02:29:59.840 --> 02:30:01.960 to contend with those surge roles 02:30:01.960 --> 02:30:03.120 as the Mastavellas. 02:30:03.120 --> 02:30:07.640 Malibuca beating HQ currently and Viko just waiting 02:30:07.640 --> 02:30:10.280 for the chance to collapse here. 02:30:10.280 --> 02:30:13.000 HQ and encrypted just continuing 02:30:13.000 --> 02:30:15.800 to find themselves getting stumped lower and lower 02:30:15.800 --> 02:30:20.600 inside of their own belts here but Albuquerque and Vico still trying to 02:30:20.600 --> 02:30:23.840 proceed with a little air of caution here they don't want to throw away the 02:30:23.840 --> 02:30:28.000 advantage yeah especially since they do have that first elimination already 02:30:28.000 --> 02:30:32.240 solidified they're dropping down lower and lower just trying to make sure that 02:30:32.240 --> 02:30:35.820 all of these covers are going to be checked at least a little bit and I 02:30:35.820 --> 02:30:42.160 talked about the fight up on this side of the map where Carol actually went up for the fight and that's what it led to an eventual demise 02:30:42.160 --> 02:30:45.920 down for those they will take the fight against fishy and we just 02:30:45.920 --> 02:30:49.840 chuck right on top get both of those limitations back to back 02:30:49.840 --> 02:30:55.520 here with the president won't be bad for themselves whoa okay buddy I mean hey 02:30:55.520 --> 02:31:00.160 whatever whatever feels best I guess in the heat of the moment clearly things 02:31:00.160 --> 02:31:06.040 have started to get a little bit aggressive over by wonky land but now 02:31:06.040 --> 02:31:09.200 how do you fishy they still need to convert it into some solid points 02:31:09.200 --> 02:31:14.800 Good placement. They'll have a little bit more time, but that also all depends on what's happening with the rest of the lobby. 02:31:14.800 --> 02:31:20.000 How many times have we seen teams kind of retreating towards those outskirts of the map, looking to play for reboots? 02:31:20.000 --> 02:31:23.500 And that little bit, if you're not completely set up for it, could work against you. 02:31:23.500 --> 02:31:27.400 Those teams could then capitalize and try to find the refresh on you instead. 02:31:29.000 --> 02:31:32.300 Moving on over. We're seeing the north. We're seeing the mid map. 02:31:32.300 --> 02:31:35.500 Now we see the full southern over towards Clustered Coast. 02:31:35.500 --> 02:31:40.620 three teams here as of now and you kind of seen them hunkered over towards the hotels. The good 02:31:40.620 --> 02:31:47.180 elevation that is over at this POI but it also houses that vault. I'm wondering if Coyota and 02:31:47.180 --> 02:31:50.540 Juma were able to get that in the first couple games because you could see why maybe they were 02:31:50.540 --> 02:31:55.580 able to pack a punch and win that second game and teams are also disengaging away so you 02:31:55.580 --> 02:32:00.700 got to imagine they have it kind of confirmed for themselves. For Juma and Coyota I think what 02:32:00.700 --> 02:32:10.140 What I really want to see is them not stray away though from those aggressive instances just because they had such a big swing of points in that secondary matchup. 02:32:10.780 --> 02:32:21.220 Clicks and rapid on the other hand, clearly a couple of issues surfacing at the start of game three clicks will be able to go for the reboot play. 02:32:21.220 --> 02:32:26.900 And then it'll just be up to him and rapid to see how they actually want to venture forward, but 02:32:27.500 --> 02:32:33.480 At least for right now coast is clear doesn't seem like it's gonna be too many problems for rapid get back into this one 02:32:33.980 --> 02:32:39.220 So I just need to see my whole theory that I'm crafting right now all depends on like what loo 02:32:39.340 --> 02:32:43.340 Rapid was able to find and I don't see him healing shield getting a full load out 02:32:43.340 --> 02:32:46.080 I thought they were going for one of those cheeky strategies to 02:32:46.080 --> 02:32:48.200 to reset their storm surge, 02:32:48.200 --> 02:32:50.280 or maybe rapid was just simply taken down, 02:32:50.280 --> 02:32:51.600 but now he's back into the game. 02:32:51.600 --> 02:32:55.320 Kamihari rotating out 104 points. 02:32:55.320 --> 02:32:57.640 At one point or another, during that last game, 02:32:57.640 --> 02:33:00.320 they did take control of that first place spot, 02:33:00.320 --> 02:33:02.320 but they eventually went down and kind of giving up. 02:33:02.320 --> 02:33:04.760 But you're taking, seeing them take a slower approach 02:33:04.760 --> 02:33:05.760 towards this game. 02:33:05.760 --> 02:33:08.240 They're going up and around that wonky land 02:33:08.240 --> 02:33:09.920 to try to land towards the north side, 02:33:09.920 --> 02:33:10.760 where you can kind of see 02:33:10.760 --> 02:33:12.760 there's not too many teams currently at. 02:33:12.760 --> 02:33:14.200 They're fully aware of the fact 02:33:14.200 --> 02:33:20.880 They'll be having to contend with Viko and Malibuka eventually though if they continue this path and even in that last lobby 02:33:20.880 --> 02:33:25.500 Something I thought was very interesting was the way that Hari even though he's based up inside of the zone 02:33:25.500 --> 02:33:29.240 Was still looking towards that north side position almost as if he was anticipating 02:33:29.360 --> 02:33:33.200 Viko and Malibuka to show up somewhere eventually on that northern side 02:33:33.200 --> 02:33:39.960 So both of those teams very likely taking pages out of each other's books. The strategies are going to continue to build up here though 02:33:39.960 --> 02:33:42.960 and for the home zone and Josh. 02:33:42.960 --> 02:33:45.960 A little bit more quiet on the day start things off, 02:33:45.960 --> 02:33:48.960 but hasn't been the worst hasn't been the best yet either. 02:33:48.960 --> 02:33:51.960 Yeah, and you gotta imagine, you know, coming into major two, 02:33:51.960 --> 02:33:54.960 they were another one of those teams that kind of went up against 02:33:54.960 --> 02:33:59.960 Reid Cooper, the off-spawn battle almost days before the major. 02:33:59.960 --> 02:34:02.960 They've lost it and kind of had to pick a POI out of nowhere 02:34:02.960 --> 02:34:06.960 and actually ended up playing very, very well all things considered. 02:34:06.960 --> 02:34:12.900 Here they got more but defined drop spot zones kind of floating in that way and we currently see them in the top 10 02:34:12.980 --> 02:34:18.320 So I'm interested to see how they continue to perform over on that side of things as Yuma coyote 02:34:18.320 --> 02:34:21.580 You still see them looping around not leaving clustercoast just yet 02:34:21.580 --> 02:34:29.360 And I just wondered has anybody actually been able to gain access to that fault because the duck key does spawn in very 02:34:29.640 --> 02:34:35.480 Different spots on the map one of them being over on that but we're Saydo and mom's he were just at you see 02:34:35.480 --> 02:34:38.840 It's not in their inventory, so maybe Yuma and Coyote have got a chance at it. 02:34:39.840 --> 02:34:46.440 One thing's for sure though, Yuma and Coyote are definitely kind of forcing Sato and Monzy out of the POI, 02:34:46.440 --> 02:34:50.880 not really giving them a chance. The proper loot up the area, Virgo and Shadow though. 02:34:51.680 --> 02:34:55.880 They're only going to get aggressive with what remains over by Wonkyland. 02:34:57.680 --> 02:35:01.880 Providing to make sure that they don't get caught off guard here by Odie and Fishy, 02:35:01.880 --> 02:35:04.080 but we'll make good use of them machines. 02:35:05.480 --> 02:35:08.920 It's kind of been the strategy so far for Shadow and Virgo. 02:35:08.920 --> 02:35:11.080 Even before coming in, when they were practicing 02:35:11.080 --> 02:35:12.680 for the Global Championship, they kind of 02:35:12.680 --> 02:35:15.320 go up that sideline in toward Golden Grove. 02:35:15.320 --> 02:35:17.320 We saw early on, were they able to actually 02:35:17.320 --> 02:35:19.040 go against Shark and Teeny. 02:35:19.040 --> 02:35:21.120 Even Team actually going down, but Shadow and Virgo 02:35:21.120 --> 02:35:23.920 actually winning the exchange due to damage. 02:35:23.920 --> 02:35:26.280 And interesting enough, they kind of take that same path 02:35:26.280 --> 02:35:27.960 here in this same game. 02:35:27.960 --> 02:35:30.440 Not necessarily be lighting it to the zone. 02:35:30.440 --> 02:35:32.520 And out on Ark Beezer, they've had some trouble 02:35:32.520 --> 02:35:34.400 so far in this game. 02:35:34.400 --> 02:35:38.120 fringe twine and depending on the bus path so many other teams because they do 02:35:38.120 --> 02:35:41.920 land near that mountain side so if any team wants to lift their way they could 02:35:41.920 --> 02:35:45.600 get some cheeky damage possibly the down like we've seen so far just tough for 02:35:45.600 --> 02:35:48.880 cannot add arc when they know then that search base just above them is 02:35:48.880 --> 02:35:53.840 swizzy and pixie and not only that but teeny shark also continuing to 02:35:53.840 --> 02:35:59.000 monitor the horizon from inside of the storm they are just posing such a 02:35:59.000 --> 02:36:02.600 big threat and it's that extra layer of complication to for teams that are 02:36:02.600 --> 02:36:05.120 trying to opt for those dead side rotations. 02:36:05.120 --> 02:36:07.240 Teenie's always going to do his homework. 02:36:07.240 --> 02:36:10.080 He is a mastermind of the cutoff method. 02:36:10.080 --> 02:36:12.120 He's practically perfected it. 02:36:12.120 --> 02:36:15.280 And when you're so notorious for that type of strategy, 02:36:15.280 --> 02:36:17.040 it just causes a lot of paranoia 02:36:17.040 --> 02:36:18.600 for anybody that's trying to venture 02:36:18.600 --> 02:36:20.240 through those dead side positions. 02:36:21.840 --> 02:36:25.680 Definitely a mental game that's gotta stay composed. 02:36:25.680 --> 02:36:27.800 Hey, this zone almost looking similar 02:36:27.800 --> 02:36:28.880 towards that game one. 02:36:28.880 --> 02:36:30.480 It did move a little bit more towards the south. 02:36:30.480 --> 02:36:33.380 of battle was at the North Green Hill zone inside. 02:36:33.380 --> 02:36:35.420 And then obviously that mid map split 02:36:35.420 --> 02:36:39.060 or reek and Cooper kind of currently housed to themselves. 02:36:39.060 --> 02:36:41.220 So even though there are some drastic pulls 02:36:41.220 --> 02:36:43.100 that we've seen so far, a zone right here 02:36:43.100 --> 02:36:44.660 relatively center is giving everybody 02:36:44.660 --> 02:36:47.940 as equal opportunity as a game can give a team. 02:36:47.940 --> 02:36:50.460 But a halfway point of day one here, 02:36:50.460 --> 02:36:53.620 pixie, swizzy, obviously a little bit too early 02:36:53.620 --> 02:36:55.660 of a departure from that last lobby. 02:36:55.660 --> 02:36:58.380 And they are looking to make up for that last time 02:36:58.380 --> 02:37:02.180 almost immediately with so many teams kind of 02:37:02.180 --> 02:37:03.740 cornering around battle woods, 02:37:03.740 --> 02:37:05.820 things could be complicated. 02:37:05.820 --> 02:37:08.300 Of course, problems also brewing right now. 02:37:09.260 --> 02:37:11.340 Or if she went out and designs Team Goodwill, 02:37:11.340 --> 02:37:13.500 seemingly with the better end of things right now 02:37:13.500 --> 02:37:16.620 against Farron and Volko, but never know. 02:37:16.620 --> 02:37:19.580 One good shot, could be the difference. 02:37:19.580 --> 02:37:21.900 Hey, this year between the Summit, 02:37:21.900 --> 02:37:25.340 major two-land and even EWC. 02:37:25.340 --> 02:37:29.300 OCE man has been packing more and more of those haymakers 02:37:29.300 --> 02:37:31.260 resigning Tika, even winning a game 02:37:31.260 --> 02:37:32.220 in some of the biggest moments. 02:37:32.220 --> 02:37:35.220 They just need to figure out a way to replicate that here. 02:37:35.220 --> 02:37:37.580 But this might not necessarily be the moment, Taco. 02:37:37.580 --> 02:37:39.860 There's two teams directly fighting in that box. 02:37:39.860 --> 02:37:41.340 There's another team towards the south. 02:37:41.340 --> 02:37:42.860 There's another team towards the north. 02:37:42.860 --> 02:37:46.180 And then every bone pump, there's another team up there. 02:37:46.180 --> 02:37:48.540 So anybody that's kind of planning to smooth sail 02:37:48.540 --> 02:37:50.620 by overstaying their welcome in the zone 02:37:50.620 --> 02:37:52.020 might have another thing coming. 02:37:52.020 --> 02:37:53.940 Bell and Xynox were really hoping 02:37:53.940 --> 02:37:55.740 that they could get a surprise alert 02:37:55.740 --> 02:37:57.060 onto one of these two teams. 02:37:57.060 --> 02:38:00.300 Instead, they're just getting tagged away piece by piece 02:38:00.300 --> 02:38:02.060 from the search itself. 02:38:02.060 --> 02:38:03.940 And with so many eyes on you, 02:38:03.940 --> 02:38:07.140 it's only a matter of time before Bella and Cyanautz's hand 02:38:07.140 --> 02:38:10.540 is forced into a very awkward box fight here. 02:38:10.540 --> 02:38:11.860 Either that or they're gonna find themselves 02:38:11.860 --> 02:38:14.620 getting eliminated by the search itself. 02:38:14.620 --> 02:38:16.100 And for Skye's scroll, 02:38:16.100 --> 02:38:17.980 they just wanna keep that momentum 02:38:17.980 --> 02:38:19.700 after what took place in the last lobby. 02:38:19.700 --> 02:38:21.900 Yeah, you can see it's taking their time, 02:38:21.900 --> 02:38:22.740 being careful. 02:38:22.740 --> 02:38:24.360 They want access to that mending machine. 02:38:24.360 --> 02:38:27.420 Not getting greedy and kind of over pushing forward, 02:38:27.420 --> 02:38:28.900 even grabbing some extra shots. 02:38:28.900 --> 02:38:30.500 But this is where you can see they're just 02:38:30.500 --> 02:38:31.700 running low on gold. 02:38:31.700 --> 02:38:33.420 So this might be their last pit stop 02:38:33.420 --> 02:38:34.620 to one of these mending machines, 02:38:34.620 --> 02:38:36.780 unless they find themselves at the elimination, 02:38:36.780 --> 02:38:38.820 or maybe more surprises around the map. 02:38:38.820 --> 02:38:40.140 A resigns, Tinka. 02:38:40.140 --> 02:38:41.580 Storm surges on Taco. 02:38:41.580 --> 02:38:44.580 They find themselves over 100 below that damage threshold. 02:38:44.580 --> 02:38:46.620 They essentially need a full elimination here 02:38:46.620 --> 02:38:47.980 without taking damage. 02:38:47.980 --> 02:38:50.180 But there goes a big surprise there by resigns. 02:38:50.180 --> 02:38:52.740 He gets pushed back a little bit along with their search. 02:38:52.740 --> 02:38:55.020 Well, the way this is started on Volko, Jacob, 02:38:55.020 --> 02:38:57.860 and it's almost seem like there won't actually be any winners here. 02:38:57.860 --> 02:39:01.820 Fatten Volko, sure, they might be the last to outstanding technically speaking, 02:39:01.820 --> 02:39:06.900 but there are just so many other teams already boxed and paced up around them 02:39:06.900 --> 02:39:09.500 that it's going to be very difficult for them to leave the area. 02:39:09.500 --> 02:39:13.580 And Velo immediately taking advantage of the situation, 02:39:13.580 --> 02:39:18.460 resides and Tinka eliminated by two separate teams. 02:39:18.460 --> 02:39:21.460 Granted, Velo, the Leaf is currently a solo. 02:39:21.460 --> 02:39:23.060 Yeah, but now they know everybody is here. 02:39:23.060 --> 02:39:25.300 They know that there's players above, 02:39:25.300 --> 02:39:26.700 there's players below, 02:39:26.700 --> 02:39:29.540 so even though you may have eliminated one team, 02:39:29.540 --> 02:39:31.780 but there's another one definitely going to be there. 02:39:31.780 --> 02:39:33.300 They're trying to disengage on out. 02:39:33.300 --> 02:39:34.820 You can kind of see that they're separated, 02:39:34.820 --> 02:39:37.140 but just like you were saying, both of them are weak. 02:39:37.140 --> 02:39:38.340 And now on top of that, 02:39:38.340 --> 02:39:40.500 they're taking active storm surge. 02:39:40.500 --> 02:39:42.380 Zynox is gonna go down. 02:39:42.380 --> 02:39:43.820 And if he takes one of these ticks, 02:39:43.820 --> 02:39:45.020 he's gonna go out. 02:39:45.020 --> 02:39:46.820 Velo is now on the clock. 02:39:46.820 --> 02:39:48.580 Must in second seconds remain. 02:39:48.580 --> 02:39:52.140 He needs 122 damage, and I think he knows what's good. 02:39:52.140 --> 02:39:55.100 Sometimes he's just gotta face the facts. 02:39:55.100 --> 02:39:56.500 The fighting was a solo earlier on, 02:39:56.500 --> 02:39:59.540 but it doesn't make a difference at this stage. 02:39:59.540 --> 02:40:04.140 Too many problems, creating an impossible situation 02:40:04.140 --> 02:40:05.980 for them to crawl their way out of, 02:40:05.980 --> 02:40:08.180 to prevent both of their journey keeps going, 02:40:08.180 --> 02:40:12.660 but Gammy, Tori, certain difficulties continue 02:40:12.660 --> 02:40:16.100 to rise up for so many of these teams. 02:40:16.100 --> 02:40:19.580 Again, not very many opportunities. 02:40:19.580 --> 02:40:22.060 You have to always proceed with Gaussian 02:40:22.060 --> 02:40:24.260 because it's just so easy for teams 02:40:24.260 --> 02:40:25.820 that are a little bit quicker to the punch, 02:40:25.820 --> 02:40:28.500 to look back, spray, get that additional damage 02:40:28.500 --> 02:40:30.180 and just put you even deeper into the hole. 02:40:30.180 --> 02:40:32.700 Yeah, they got a whole different ball game. 02:40:32.700 --> 02:40:34.020 Instead of in the first couple of games, 02:40:34.020 --> 02:40:35.780 teams rotating into them, 02:40:35.780 --> 02:40:38.260 they now have to rotate into others. 02:40:38.260 --> 02:40:40.780 And you see them 39 below the damage threshold. 02:40:40.780 --> 02:40:42.220 Opens up to try to get shots, 02:40:42.220 --> 02:40:43.700 but instantly has to heal. 02:40:43.700 --> 02:40:45.380 He doesn't have time to go ahead 02:40:45.380 --> 02:40:49.220 for shots or at least not just yet and they even have the zone on their back. 02:40:49.220 --> 02:40:53.300 This is gonna go from a two tick to a five tick and they are really feeling the pain. 02:40:53.300 --> 02:40:56.500 Kami at least goes down to himself so he's not gonna give up any 02:40:56.500 --> 02:40:59.460 elimination points but Storm surge is still active. 02:40:59.460 --> 02:41:02.100 Hari is just down to bandages and timing. 02:41:02.100 --> 02:41:05.140 I know the math taco is not on his side. 02:41:05.140 --> 02:41:10.500 Hari is doing everything in his power to fight against the inevitable but 02:41:10.500 --> 02:41:13.860 whether it's another team or whether it's the surge itself. 02:41:13.860 --> 02:41:21.060 Fahri is losing all of his options and sure enough will be eliminated on the bright side 02:41:21.060 --> 02:41:27.060 though they have had a rather solid day so far but every single one of these teams know 02:41:27.060 --> 02:41:31.700 especially the experienced veterans that you're going to need at least four solid lobbies 02:41:31.700 --> 02:41:34.660 to remain inside of that top ten position for day two. 02:41:34.660 --> 02:41:38.780 Yeah and you can kind of see the frustration on his face and also just shows the passion 02:41:38.780 --> 02:41:41.220 and how bad they really want this win. 02:41:41.220 --> 02:41:43.420 Rax and Yannis rotating in. 02:41:43.420 --> 02:41:45.660 40 above the damage threshold. 02:41:45.660 --> 02:41:48.100 It's not much, Taco, but at this stage in the game, 02:41:48.100 --> 02:41:49.740 it's better than being below. 02:41:49.740 --> 02:41:52.140 As Peterbot and Pollo below the damage, 02:41:52.140 --> 02:41:53.660 he goes down to search. 02:41:53.660 --> 02:41:57.260 Didn't even get to, oh, it gets down to search as well. 02:41:57.260 --> 02:42:00.140 Peterbot and Pollo, it's already been three games. 02:42:00.140 --> 02:42:03.500 Eventually, Taco, that switch has to flip. 02:42:03.500 --> 02:42:07.100 And it's just so hard too to shake that off mentally. 02:42:07.100 --> 02:42:11.220 When you are me, Peterbot and Poyo, all of the hype, 02:42:11.220 --> 02:42:14.980 everything that's been building up to this global's championship, 02:42:14.980 --> 02:42:17.140 Pete Poyo, they're not gonna run from a fight. 02:42:17.140 --> 02:42:21.060 And yet, it's looking like they can't even pick their own at this stage. 02:42:21.060 --> 02:42:23.900 Tough situation to find yourself in. 02:42:23.900 --> 02:42:26.740 219, what am I supposed to do? 02:42:26.740 --> 02:42:30.220 Now, this is a tough situation to find yourself in. 02:42:30.220 --> 02:42:32.860 Two essentially empty chug chugs. 02:42:32.860 --> 02:42:34.820 You're not gonna be able to outheal Stormsurf 02:42:34.820 --> 02:42:36.620 with 19 players needing to go down. 02:42:36.620 --> 02:42:43.120 Especially what looks like Tom is trying to push his way in and other teams in the distance to end that run 02:42:43.120 --> 02:42:45.260 They're gonna get taken out but King is there as well 02:42:45.260 --> 02:42:50.600 Praise is there as well. This side of the map is actually getting congested and they might be fine for that pile of loot 02:42:50.600 --> 02:42:53.740 They saw just fall but look at sky and scroll 02:42:53.940 --> 02:43:00.420 Currently sitting in that second place position on the leaderboard and with first place having just been eliminated 02:43:00.420 --> 02:43:04.580 This is a perfect opportunity for them to try and play 02:43:04.580 --> 02:43:09.460 captains of this lobby and they can overtake at the halfway point of the 02:43:09.460 --> 02:43:14.420 day that confidence swing is going to be immeasurable but still other Titans to 02:43:14.420 --> 02:43:18.140 contend with can never forget about what shark and teeny are starting to build up 02:43:18.140 --> 02:43:22.540 to. Yeah feeling a deja vu you might be correct stone sanctum is where the zone 02:43:22.540 --> 02:43:26.380 is moving around this game as well it's relatively towards the center of the 02:43:26.380 --> 02:43:30.980 map it's just a journey to get here as any PO goes down flixie but a lot of 02:43:30.980 --> 02:43:34.340 damage coming out from shark that's obviously gonna alleviate storm surge 02:43:34.340 --> 02:43:36.340 something that it's going to get less and less 02:43:36.340 --> 02:43:38.340 prevalent as the game does go on. 02:43:38.340 --> 02:43:42.340 Once 40 players are remaining in the lobby, it turns off all together. 02:43:42.340 --> 02:43:46.340 But they're just building that cushion, so it's less and less for them to worry about. 02:43:46.340 --> 02:43:49.340 Pretty brutal situation now though for Pablo and Gino. 02:43:49.340 --> 02:43:50.340 Pablo, I don't even think you realize it. 02:43:50.340 --> 02:43:53.340 It was his toes that were getting tagged up there by a shark. 02:43:53.340 --> 02:43:56.340 And now, those moments that they have to take to pause and yield, 02:43:56.340 --> 02:43:59.340 it's opportunities that are slipping away from them. 02:43:59.340 --> 02:44:01.980 Rest the lobby, getting in to a much better position. 02:44:01.980 --> 02:44:04.500 Skye's sprawled, immediately making sure 02:44:04.500 --> 02:44:06.300 that they navigate towards that front side. 02:44:06.300 --> 02:44:08.780 But Kalabuka as a solo Jacob, 02:44:08.780 --> 02:44:11.780 this is a very difficult position to try and contend with. 02:44:11.780 --> 02:44:13.780 Only eight builds remain. 02:44:13.780 --> 02:44:16.420 He is trying to pour some sort of breathe fresh. 02:44:16.420 --> 02:44:18.020 Looking back has a little bit of leverage 02:44:18.020 --> 02:44:20.020 with positioning, but it's a healthy duo 02:44:20.020 --> 02:44:21.820 just behind him in every well and fault. 02:44:21.820 --> 02:44:23.900 Yeah, especially with only one shockwave left. 02:44:23.900 --> 02:44:26.620 He talks about the lack of material and shields. 02:44:26.620 --> 02:44:31.460 Malibuca really needs a miracle here to continue going in this game. 02:44:31.460 --> 02:44:33.660 Because even if you shock with it to the front side of the zone, 02:44:33.660 --> 02:44:36.180 he barely has enough builds to make a singular box. 02:44:36.180 --> 02:44:37.440 And you kind of see on the other side, 02:44:37.440 --> 02:44:40.460 clicks and rapid below the damage threshold. 02:44:40.460 --> 02:44:43.340 Before this game, they were inside of the top 10, 02:44:43.340 --> 02:44:47.620 and they're both going to fall around 23rd or so plays. 02:44:47.620 --> 02:44:49.660 That one is definitely going to hurt. 02:44:49.660 --> 02:44:50.900 It's just slim pickings. 02:44:50.900 --> 02:44:55.020 There are very little opportunities to actually try and recover 02:44:55.020 --> 02:45:01.580 you fall behind. Nebs and Nathan though, trying to seize this opportunity here, want to make 02:45:01.580 --> 02:45:07.020 sure that they capitalize on that front side almost immediately, but now La Bucca, 13 HP 02:45:07.020 --> 02:45:10.820 is all that remains. It is refresh or bust for him. 02:45:10.820 --> 02:45:15.260 Remember I said he couldn't even build a full box and you're seeing a ear forced to 02:45:15.260 --> 02:45:19.260 basically hide in his cone. Most of it is protected by him. Where he's waiting for 02:45:19.260 --> 02:45:23.820 the zone to catch up. Waiting to see if there's anybody in a similar situation 02:45:23.820 --> 02:45:29.660 And I don't think there's too many there are other solos but 13 HP zero build 02:45:29.660 --> 02:45:33.480 This gotta be the most drastic situation in the lobby and don't be fooled right now 02:45:33.480 --> 02:45:37.620 We are looking at a different sort of dynamic all together darn Dmish 02:45:38.180 --> 02:45:45.860 Incredibly healthy, but will it stay that way can they manage to keep themselves intact as they begin new make their way forward 02:45:47.860 --> 02:45:51.940 Closing in backside of the zone needs one shot to connect 02:45:51.940 --> 02:45:54.860 CCRX, buddy, walk at the chance, 02:45:54.860 --> 02:45:57.960 chap immediately picking him off as he slides on. 02:45:57.960 --> 02:46:01.380 Yeah, tough run, but they're still at least getting some points for it. 02:46:01.380 --> 02:46:04.580 Same with Toyota and Yuma after winning that last game. 02:46:04.580 --> 02:46:09.340 But we got a new team on high ground, catching fire with all of my thirst. 02:46:09.340 --> 02:46:12.380 And he goes down. 02:46:12.380 --> 02:46:15.020 Now it's no simple himself, but that's okay. 02:46:15.020 --> 02:46:18.140 We've seen what kind of firepower these guys possess. 02:46:18.140 --> 02:46:19.700 He's trying to hide the body in. 02:46:19.700 --> 02:46:24.160 Nathan Nathan actually go down Dharma Demons crossed the party even though he can't get the rebound 02:46:24.160 --> 02:46:26.160 He's going to get some of that Lou 02:46:26.360 --> 02:46:28.040 Will it make a difference? 02:46:28.040 --> 02:46:33.700 No, sirs still stuck inside of all that congestion now having a battle his way through it 02:46:33.700 --> 02:46:39.100 GRX and Randy though they've managed to make something with the high ground temporarily after that last shot 02:46:39.100 --> 02:46:45.720 But Skrull underneath it all back side the zone immediately trying to catapult themselves forward Skrull already in position 02:46:45.720 --> 02:46:48.120 Already looking out, but they just don't have any build. 02:46:48.120 --> 02:46:50.620 Cald and Ritual might get taken out for it, 02:46:50.620 --> 02:46:52.820 but all they need to do is look back for one second. 02:46:52.820 --> 02:46:55.220 Skrull, they're just so incredibly weak, 02:46:55.220 --> 02:46:57.920 but Cald and Ritual, they're not able to dish it back 02:46:57.920 --> 02:46:58.920 just in time. 02:46:58.920 --> 02:47:01.920 Pablo bailing them out with that Elimanta scroll. 02:47:01.920 --> 02:47:04.420 Ritual and Cald barely escaping. 02:47:04.420 --> 02:47:06.120 Probably at all or nothing plays. 02:47:06.120 --> 02:47:08.120 They find multiple eliminations here, 02:47:08.120 --> 02:47:10.720 but finally Cald goes down, he meets his match. 02:47:10.720 --> 02:47:14.420 Ritual still up for 5 HP, one build left. 02:47:14.420 --> 02:47:17.940 You think you got something out of the Chug Chug, but that one is down on E. 02:47:17.940 --> 02:47:19.700 Hope finally does get cleaned up. 02:47:19.700 --> 02:47:25.140 Top 10 scenario, Taco Ritual's one of six players making five running around as solos. 02:47:25.140 --> 02:47:29.300 And damage-riding in DEMO science is gonna get that siphon, but at what cause? 02:47:29.300 --> 02:47:33.700 Only to a C-Left in that Chug Chug, it is not the lifeline he was hoping for. 02:47:33.700 --> 02:47:39.700 Acorn still, as a solo, trying to see whether or not he can actually find a scenario 02:47:39.700 --> 02:47:45.060 elimination. He needs anything to work with the Irving. Darm, Demis, they have just been eating up 02:47:45.060 --> 02:47:49.300 everyone in these middle layers, taking full advantage of their opportunities. 02:47:49.300 --> 02:47:53.140 Yeah, they've been picking up the elimination, but they haven't been able to reap the reward 02:47:53.140 --> 02:47:58.020 in terms of loot just yet. And then another chase begins, and another elimination. It's 02:47:58.020 --> 02:48:02.420 going to be secure. Demis, this time, able to grab the build. It might be the bare minimum, 02:48:02.420 --> 02:48:06.580 but it's keeping the mouthy. High ground beginning to focus down. Oh, my God! 02:48:06.580 --> 02:48:08.580 Xe just got deleted! 02:48:08.580 --> 02:48:12.580 Darvin' Demich are looking unstoppable currently cringed! 02:48:12.580 --> 02:48:14.580 Why?

Game number three, GRX and Brando. 02:54:44.220 --> 02:54:46.220 I mean, I think we're starting to pick up on something 02:54:46.220 --> 02:54:47.380 for these winning teams. 02:54:47.380 --> 02:54:49.220 It's going to be, of course, all about the higher ground 02:54:49.220 --> 02:54:51.820 so far over the course of these three games. 02:54:51.820 --> 02:54:54.420 Low elimination is kind of leading into those final couple 02:54:54.420 --> 02:54:55.060 of zones. 02:54:55.060 --> 02:54:56.540 But once we actually get there, that's 02:54:56.540 --> 02:54:58.740 when these teams start to pick them up. 02:54:58.740 --> 02:55:00.220 What is going on, Gus? 02:55:00.220 --> 02:55:02.180 But what is actually going on in these games? 02:55:02.180 --> 02:55:02.820 Talk to me. 02:55:02.820 --> 02:55:03.580 Talk to me. 02:55:03.580 --> 02:55:05.420 There's a lot of teams who I was expecting 02:55:05.420 --> 02:55:07.980 to just handle these moments on what 02:55:07.980 --> 02:55:10.220 but as far as just being made consistent. 02:55:10.220 --> 02:55:13.620 You've got three games, three different regional winners. 02:55:13.620 --> 02:55:16.940 I mean, props to these two, right? 02:55:16.940 --> 02:55:18.900 Because the passion is there. 02:55:18.900 --> 02:55:21.060 They capture the opportunity, well, and I think 02:55:21.060 --> 02:55:22.980 that's what these games have been about, right? 02:55:22.980 --> 02:55:25.140 It's quite messy, there's a lot going on. 02:55:25.140 --> 02:55:27.180 You find yourself in the right situation. 02:55:27.180 --> 02:55:28.140 You make the right play, 02:55:28.140 --> 02:55:30.260 and then you have a chance to win the game. 02:55:30.260 --> 02:55:31.100 And then you have a chance 02:55:31.100 --> 02:55:32.460 to really move yourself up into the stand-ins. 02:55:32.460 --> 02:55:34.860 Look how much he's moved 24 places 02:55:34.860 --> 02:55:37.100 into the top 10 now. 02:55:37.100 --> 02:55:41.620 Yeah, today, oh man, can I say one thing before Z can vivid speak? 02:55:41.620 --> 02:55:43.340 Ah, I know one thing. 02:55:43.340 --> 02:55:44.820 I'm just gonna say one thing, guys. 02:55:44.820 --> 02:55:46.300 Yeah, you know, somebody beat him. 02:55:46.300 --> 02:55:47.900 Please do not mute me. 02:55:47.900 --> 02:55:50.340 This is a very fascinating leaderboard. 02:55:50.340 --> 02:55:50.660 Yep. 02:55:50.660 --> 02:55:53.380 There are no NA players. 02:55:53.380 --> 02:55:55.540 Not even like NA center, like not even West. 02:55:55.540 --> 02:55:59.500 Like, there's just no NA to be found. 02:55:59.500 --> 02:56:02.580 Guys, is it too late to just rip up my predictions 02:56:02.580 --> 02:56:03.460 and just start again? 02:56:03.460 --> 02:56:06.180 Because I can't believe I even put any NA teams in there. 02:56:06.180 --> 02:56:10.180 how these games are going. I'm trying to give you the benefit of doubt. 02:56:10.180 --> 02:56:15.180 I don't know if the math right, we're going to need a double-cycle leaderboard or so. 02:56:15.180 --> 02:56:20.180 You know what I mean? I don't know. It's tough. It's tough. Higgs and Kern currently in 12th place. 02:56:20.180 --> 02:56:24.180 We'll come back to them. Anyway, why don't we focus on some cool stuff? 02:56:24.180 --> 02:56:27.180 That's our Dartmouth game-ish first place currently. 02:56:27.180 --> 02:56:31.180 What is interesting about that again, off the back of a Demis solo clutch? 02:56:31.180 --> 02:56:34.540 Again, I feel like, boys, this is going to be very critical, 02:56:34.540 --> 02:56:36.460 especially here at the Global Championship. 02:56:36.460 --> 02:56:39.460 The solo clutch factor from these duels, right? 02:56:39.460 --> 02:56:40.580 They, I believe it was you who said, 02:56:40.580 --> 02:56:43.020 you can't expect to play every roundout, 02:56:43.020 --> 02:56:44.740 or every came out the same, right? 02:56:44.740 --> 02:56:47.340 So really adapting to a situation, going, 02:56:47.340 --> 02:56:49.380 hey, back's against the wall. 02:56:49.380 --> 02:56:51.260 You need to clutch right now. 02:56:51.260 --> 02:56:53.100 This isn't a major, this isn't a last chance. 02:56:53.100 --> 02:56:55.460 This isn't a Global Championship, playing for a title. 02:56:55.460 --> 02:56:56.300 It's kind of funny. 02:56:56.300 --> 02:56:58.740 I was talking to Levin and Mini 02:56:58.740 --> 02:57:00.580 prior to the day even starting today. 02:57:00.580 --> 02:57:05.420 And I was like, what have Garmin Demish kind of been doing throughout this year? 02:57:05.420 --> 02:57:06.620 Like, where have they been? 02:57:06.620 --> 02:57:10.020 And all of a sudden, here we are, the halfway point. 02:57:10.020 --> 02:57:11.340 Here, absolutely crushing it. 02:57:11.340 --> 02:57:14.300 And really, a majority of the points on the back of that game right there, 02:57:14.300 --> 02:57:15.300 what did they finish this game at? 02:57:15.300 --> 02:57:17.340 Was it like 12 eliminations? 02:57:17.340 --> 02:57:20.420 Absolutely stomped their way to the mid-ground. 02:57:20.420 --> 02:57:23.660 I think the key thing when you look at how this game played out is, 02:57:23.660 --> 02:57:25.900 you know, obviously, Demish ends up as a solo. 02:57:25.900 --> 02:57:27.980 But as to what they did when they were a duo, 02:57:27.980 --> 02:57:29.980 Yeah, this is the chaos. 02:57:29.980 --> 02:57:31.660 These guys, five in the chaos. 02:57:31.660 --> 02:57:32.620 They love it. 02:57:32.620 --> 02:57:34.340 Both of them have the ability to just get 02:57:34.340 --> 02:57:36.060 raggy when people are on their edits. 02:57:36.060 --> 02:57:38.220 Quick little edit, bang, one pump. 02:57:38.220 --> 02:57:39.620 That's what they're all about. 02:57:39.620 --> 02:57:42.220 And again, in a lobby where a lot of people 02:57:42.220 --> 02:57:43.820 are struggling to find consistency, 02:57:43.820 --> 02:57:48.180 these two clearly have some excellent rhythm right now. 02:57:48.180 --> 02:57:50.020 20 eliminations. 02:57:50.020 --> 02:57:51.580 Guys, we got to bring up the fact 02:57:51.580 --> 02:57:53.740 that eliminations are worth four points, right? 02:57:53.740 --> 02:57:56.180 Like, obviously we can try and play four of those placement, 02:57:56.180 --> 02:58:00.020 But this is why they're way up there on the standings, right? 02:58:00.020 --> 02:58:04.380 20 eliminations in a lobby like this is crazy. 02:58:04.380 --> 02:58:08.020 I'd love to take it back to the middle board to continue kind of breaking down what we're seeing. 02:58:08.020 --> 02:58:09.780 Because again, we are at the halfway point. 02:58:09.780 --> 02:58:12.660 The players now have time to kind of take a step back, 02:58:12.660 --> 02:58:15.860 reassess, short break, and then right back into the action. 02:58:15.860 --> 02:58:19.860 Sky and Skrull is well currently in second place. 02:58:19.860 --> 02:58:22.060 Have really picked up steam. 02:58:22.060 --> 02:58:24.700 Remember that first game wasn't that strong, 02:58:24.700 --> 02:58:26.660 But now we are firing back. 02:58:26.660 --> 02:58:28.740 We have to say, look, and, you know, 02:58:28.740 --> 02:58:30.860 they can't forget tomorrow six more games, 02:58:30.860 --> 02:58:34.900 but we're trying to end day one in a really strong 02:58:34.900 --> 02:58:36.300 and favorable position. 02:58:36.300 --> 02:58:37.220 Yeah, 100%. 02:58:37.220 --> 02:58:39.340 I would say this is another 12th place from Sky and Skull. 02:58:39.340 --> 02:58:39.940 They got 12th. 02:58:39.940 --> 02:58:41.060 First game, they got 12th. 02:58:41.060 --> 02:58:42.620 Third game, that second game was obviously 02:58:42.620 --> 02:58:45.460 where we saw them kind of perform the absolute best. 02:58:45.460 --> 02:58:47.420 But I would say for the rest of the competition, 02:58:47.420 --> 02:58:48.940 when we do actually take a look at that leaderboard, 02:58:48.940 --> 02:58:50.700 where I think the spread right now is 80 points 02:58:50.700 --> 02:58:52.420 from first to 10th place. 02:58:52.420 --> 02:58:53.820 I feel like a lot of these teams have actually 02:58:53.820 --> 02:59:06.700 had the opportunity in some of these games to kind of extend that lead to the fact that like sky and roll have gotten to 12 places, even though they made it to the end game and all three games so far, like, realistically, they can be on much higher points. 02:59:06.700 --> 02:59:12.060 And right now the competition is still being kept like close enough to where I still feel like you can't count anybody out. 02:59:12.060 --> 02:59:16.020 I'd love to go into replays real quick and just look at what they're looting, right? 02:59:16.020 --> 02:59:23.660 Because in one of those games there, we sort of saw the early game situation with the three teams at ready, and they sort of ran out of POI with that. 02:59:23.660 --> 02:59:25.660 you know, clearly, I'm a seeming 02:59:25.660 --> 02:59:27.660 not working with much, but they're 02:59:27.660 --> 02:59:29.660 making so much out of it. And to 02:59:29.660 --> 02:59:31.660 anybody that wants a close 02:59:31.660 --> 02:59:33.660 competition, you're going to have 02:59:33.660 --> 02:59:35.660 to hope these guys again have 02:59:35.660 --> 02:59:37.660 somewhat fall off because you allow 02:59:37.660 --> 02:59:39.660 these guys to get rhythm. They do 02:59:39.660 --> 02:59:41.660 not look back. They are so good at 02:59:41.660 --> 02:59:43.660 just keeping the games churning. 02:59:43.660 --> 02:59:45.660 I like that. Well, hey, guess what? 02:59:45.660 --> 02:59:47.660 Now at the happy point, we have a beat here 02:59:47.660 --> 02:59:49.660 to talk to Darm and Dmish. 02:59:49.660 --> 02:59:51.660 Frankie, what do we got? Well, 02:59:51.660 --> 02:59:57.300 Givet said it on the desk. Boys, where has this version of Darman Dimas been all year? 02:59:57.780 --> 03:00:02.820 I mean, like, before all the cups in the season and all this season before, 03:00:02.820 --> 03:00:07.140 like, we tried to hide some things that we did today, you know? 03:00:07.140 --> 03:00:09.780 But we have to keep our clear mind anyway. 03:00:10.220 --> 03:00:13.660 So, talk to me then about bringing things out into the open 03:00:13.660 --> 03:00:16.020 and showing the world what you can do. 03:00:16.020 --> 03:00:20.140 Are you worried now that people have seen what you've got and they might be coming for you? 03:00:20.140 --> 03:00:21.980 No, not really. I got it. 03:00:21.980 --> 03:00:28.060 So tell me then about that last game, second place, 12 eliminations. 03:00:28.060 --> 03:00:31.420 Absolutely insane. What was it like for you guys on Coms? 03:00:31.420 --> 03:00:34.380 On Coms? I was just screaming my lungs out, you know? 03:00:34.380 --> 03:00:38.300 I just, like, my throat is, like, so sore right now, so, yeah. 03:00:38.300 --> 03:00:42.220 Does that not panic you, Demos, when your captain is screaming? 03:00:42.220 --> 03:00:45.580 No, I mean, I was like every five seconds, I was like that, that, that. 03:00:45.580 --> 03:00:48.780 Like, actually, like five seconds, you know? 03:00:48.780 --> 03:00:56.780 I'm so sorry to cut you off. You said every single second just shy of the microphone because I pulled it away because I am so excited for these guys. 03:00:56.780 --> 03:01:02.780 It's part of the game plan. Come towards me, dumb. It's part of the game plan. Simply run towards the chaos in the endgame. 03:01:02.780 --> 03:01:03.780 Sorry? 03:01:03.780 --> 03:01:07.780 Do you intentionally see the chaos occurring and run towards it? 03:01:07.780 --> 03:01:13.780 Sometimes. It depends on the situation. But yeah, when there is chaos, there's us probably in it. 03:01:13.780 --> 03:01:17.620 And when there's a chaos, they'll be causing even more of it. 03:01:17.620 --> 03:01:19.860 Congratulations on being number one on the leaderboard. 03:01:19.860 --> 03:01:21.460 Dama Dima, so let's see if you can keep it up. 03:01:21.460 --> 03:01:22.860 And let's head back to the desk. 03:01:25.260 --> 03:01:26.660 Charm is such a funny guy. 03:01:26.660 --> 03:01:30.180 Yeah, he's so funny. 03:01:30.180 --> 03:01:32.660 You know, shout out to them again. 03:01:32.660 --> 03:01:35.940 Currently in first place, we do have three more games to go. 03:01:35.940 --> 03:01:37.300 And then we'll kind of wrap things up 03:01:37.300 --> 03:01:40.180 as our prepared for tomorrow's six games. 03:01:40.180 --> 03:01:41.900 I'd like to continue the conversation, though, 03:01:41.900 --> 03:01:45.460 of that kind of top five situation. 03:01:45.460 --> 03:01:48.220 We did see something interesting in that last game. 03:01:48.220 --> 03:01:50.380 Janice and Rax, we saw them originally 03:01:50.380 --> 03:01:51.620 in that first-place spot. 03:01:51.620 --> 03:01:55.020 They fell 36th place in this last game 03:01:55.020 --> 03:01:56.700 with only one elimination. 03:01:56.700 --> 03:01:58.460 Now, you know, sure, they got them so something, 03:01:58.460 --> 03:02:02.740 but guys, 36th place, that's tough. 03:02:03.820 --> 03:02:06.380 The ping-pong back and forth in these early games 03:02:06.380 --> 03:02:07.380 of a competition like this, 03:02:07.380 --> 03:02:08.780 maybe we've kind of talked about it already, 03:02:08.780 --> 03:02:10.860 but the consistency is just super, super hard 03:02:10.860 --> 03:02:12.700 to kind of find for any of these teams. 03:02:12.700 --> 03:02:13.900 So over the course of the first like, 03:02:13.900 --> 03:02:15.940 I really, you could say the whole day, number one, 03:02:15.940 --> 03:02:18.140 we're going to see this leaderboard just change so much. 03:02:18.140 --> 03:02:19.980 And then these teams are actually going to kind of find 03:02:19.980 --> 03:02:21.260 their footing when they figure out 03:02:21.260 --> 03:02:22.540 where everybody's actually laying in, 03:02:22.540 --> 03:02:25.020 what looting paths all these teams have actually kind of 03:02:25.020 --> 03:02:26.580 decided on, and then they can play around it. 03:02:26.580 --> 03:02:28.220 And then we'll probably start to see 03:02:28.220 --> 03:02:29.340 the consistency tomorrow. 03:02:29.340 --> 03:02:30.740 But today's just going to be all about finding 03:02:30.740 --> 03:02:32.260 as many points as you possibly can 03:02:32.260 --> 03:02:34.220 and pick up on as much knowledge 03:02:34.220 --> 03:02:35.340 as you actually can as well, 03:02:35.340 --> 03:02:36.660 with all the teams laying around you. 03:02:36.660 --> 03:02:38.060 Yeah, you have to get a feel for the lobby. 03:02:38.060 --> 03:02:39.100 You have to get a feel for the lobby. 03:02:39.100 --> 03:02:41.700 have to figure out where the opportunities are, right? 03:02:41.700 --> 03:02:45.500 I think instantly we saw game one, 03:02:45.500 --> 03:02:48.300 the map didn't quite look like how we thought it was gonna look. 03:02:48.300 --> 03:02:49.140 Yeah. 03:02:49.140 --> 03:02:49.980 Right? 03:02:49.980 --> 03:02:50.820 There were a lot of teams who, 03:02:50.820 --> 03:02:51.660 we thought they were gonna be contested, 03:02:51.660 --> 03:02:53.460 ended up splitting their spots, right? 03:02:53.460 --> 03:02:54.780 Okay, all of a sudden now, 03:02:54.780 --> 03:02:57.340 this team's not fighting, that we thought is fighting. 03:02:57.340 --> 03:02:59.300 Hmm, we thought I was gonna be a surge opportunity 03:02:59.300 --> 03:03:01.380 for us to go in and get some tags on that fight. 03:03:01.380 --> 03:03:02.220 It's not a fight. 03:03:02.220 --> 03:03:03.340 Where do we go for surge now, right? 03:03:03.340 --> 03:03:05.260 You're trying to figure out what's happening around us 03:03:05.260 --> 03:03:06.700 that we can capitalize on. 03:03:06.700 --> 03:03:07.540 And like you said, 03:03:07.540 --> 03:03:16.240 Again, in this half-time break, there's gonna be people in the back, on the computers, in the replays, straight, just figuring out what is happening around the map that we can capitalize on. 03:03:16.240 --> 03:03:24.540 Yeah, it's gonna be a quote-unquote break, right? Because I can almost guarantee you, they're not actually gonna be taking a break, they're not gonna be working hard, right, jumping on and seeing what they can actually improve on. 03:03:24.540 --> 03:03:35.540 You have to, man. Yeah, it's so strange, right? Like, there's a certain way, I almost feel like I expect some of these games to go, and then we hit LAN, it's like, some of the best teams are slow on surge. 03:03:35.540 --> 03:03:41.980 like a surge of all things like how crazy these situations can be. Can you guys maybe 03:03:41.980 --> 03:03:45.160 speak a little bit to that? You know, what are the, what were some of the expectations 03:03:45.160 --> 03:03:48.180 for any duo you had coming in that haven't quite been met? 03:03:48.180 --> 03:03:51.260 Well, I'll tell you what, I mean, Higgs and the Curves, they came out of the, out of 03:03:51.260 --> 03:03:54.500 the game swinging, right? Like I was like, oh my gosh, yes. We've got a team here 03:03:54.500 --> 03:03:57.660 ready to play all 12 games. It's going to be absolutely fantastic. And the kind 03:03:57.660 --> 03:04:01.540 of back that up even take a look at the staff, right? How much damage they took 03:04:01.540 --> 03:04:05.940 game number one. I mean Higgs took like 37 damage of course the whole entirety of 03:04:05.940 --> 03:04:09.060 game number one and then Herbal the other side of things took like 38 like they 03:04:09.060 --> 03:04:12.260 both got hit like a single time that whole game I was like oh my gosh they have 03:04:12.260 --> 03:04:15.860 Serge figured out this is awesome and they got zero points over the next two 03:04:15.860 --> 03:04:19.380 games. Game number two and three and honestly they went down to Serge each 03:04:19.380 --> 03:04:21.940 one of those games as well so it's like you had to figure out fill well in game 03:04:21.940 --> 03:04:24.660 number one and then it's just so completely different for games two and 03:04:24.660 --> 03:04:28.580 three. I'm surprised you're asking me about expectations. My expectation was 03:04:28.580 --> 03:04:31.580 was that halftime break was going to start and Vivint would have his cape ready. 03:04:32.580 --> 03:04:35.380 I was ready to have it on. I was ready to have it on. 03:04:36.180 --> 03:04:37.980 I thought on though. It's not. 03:04:37.980 --> 03:04:40.420 It's fine. We still have half. 03:04:40.420 --> 03:04:42.580 We have three more games to go. Everything's going to be fine. 03:04:42.580 --> 03:04:43.780 Everything's going to be fine. 03:04:43.780 --> 03:04:45.820 I want to also kind of double back really fast. 03:04:45.820 --> 03:04:47.820 Sky and Skrull wanted to highlight them. 03:04:48.460 --> 03:04:51.420 This is a duo we believe could go all the way, right? 03:04:51.420 --> 03:04:55.580 Just again, missing out on Summit in that final game. 03:04:55.580 --> 03:04:57.780 We even saw that highlight not the long ago of the duo, 03:04:57.780 --> 03:05:02.260 kind of trying to make it as far as they can. I'm so curious to see what they may be learning 03:05:02.260 --> 03:05:07.940 at this and during this time. I would love to see Frankie or somebody have a chat with 03:05:07.940 --> 03:05:14.020 them. In the leader, right? I had a couple conversations with them. And genuinely, I don't 03:05:14.020 --> 03:05:18.620 think they were lying to me. I think they genuinely didn't really expect much out of 03:05:18.620 --> 03:05:22.500 this weekend. Like it just gave the vibe of like, eh, whatever happens happens. Well, 03:05:22.500 --> 03:05:25.900 you called her, you summoned her. So Frankie is standing by right now. Frankie, why 03:05:25.900 --> 03:05:27.820 Why don't you find out how the duo's doing? 03:05:27.820 --> 03:05:31.020 Yeah, I think the duo's doing great so far. 03:05:31.020 --> 03:05:33.100 How are you feeling, Sky? 03:05:33.100 --> 03:05:34.540 Better than expected. 03:05:34.540 --> 03:05:35.660 Yeah, so tell me about that. 03:05:35.660 --> 03:05:38.220 Did you not expect to be second on the leaderboard 03:05:38.220 --> 03:05:39.700 after three games? 03:05:39.700 --> 03:05:40.340 Not at all. 03:05:40.340 --> 03:05:42.580 I mean, we had, like, we're travel guys. 03:05:42.580 --> 03:05:44.820 Like, no, we didn't think we'd be here. 03:05:44.820 --> 03:05:46.500 And there must have been such a hard decision 03:05:46.500 --> 03:05:49.260 to make for you guys deciding to stay at Realty's 03:05:49.260 --> 03:05:52.420 or in how are you finding it so far? 03:05:52.420 --> 03:05:54.540 I mean, we're just residing to a game plan. 03:05:54.540 --> 03:05:57.180 That's what we're best at, so yeah, that's how we do good. 03:05:57.180 --> 03:05:59.220 So talk to me then about game three. 03:05:59.220 --> 03:06:01.860 The loop path switched things up. 03:06:01.860 --> 03:06:04.460 Why did you call that decision? 03:06:04.460 --> 03:06:08.820 We saw Pete on right side, which is where we usually went. 03:06:08.820 --> 03:06:11.660 So I just took like a quick decision and tapped it. 03:06:11.660 --> 03:06:14.180 And yeah, I decided to go the other way. 03:06:14.180 --> 03:06:15.780 So a key part of the game plan potentially 03:06:15.780 --> 03:06:18.980 is avoiding a flight off spawn against Peter Bottom Boyo. 03:06:18.980 --> 03:06:20.660 Not that it's to avoid, more just 03:06:20.660 --> 03:06:22.380 like the three teams in the few eyes. 03:06:22.380 --> 03:06:24.060 So if we take a flight, then the other team 03:06:24.060 --> 03:06:29.100 going to come. You definitely don't want that third party and so far making all 03:06:29.100 --> 03:06:33.540 three end games what do you need to do though to get that victory Roy Allen to 03:06:33.540 --> 03:06:38.420 try and place second or first as we just saw you do in game two. I mean we 03:06:38.420 --> 03:06:42.220 started out just feeling the lobby and from now on we're just gonna play how 03:06:42.220 --> 03:06:47.020 we do normally. Is the fact that eliminations are worth four points on 03:06:47.020 --> 03:06:53.180 your mind? Not really. But for you guys you're very consistent you're 03:06:53.180 --> 03:06:57.720 making the end games, but if you don't get the eliminations you need, are you worried 03:06:57.720 --> 03:06:59.560 about being able to stay at the top? 03:06:59.560 --> 03:07:03.440 Not at all. We're only three games in and I'm not worried about the last night. 03:07:03.440 --> 03:07:07.640 Okay, well I'm not worried about you guys at all after seeing the first three games, 03:07:07.640 --> 03:07:11.440 so let's see if you can stay consistent. Let's head back to the desk. 03:07:11.440 --> 03:07:18.440 Okay, alright, a nice little tip check from the duo. Man, we'll have to see, man. 03:07:18.440 --> 03:07:22.800 I'm so curious to see what they kind of take away from this break. But first, 03:07:22.800 --> 03:07:27.440 you a four-knife M out there.

So like I was like yeah man it's happening there's time but yeah none of the 03:15:59.760 --> 03:16:04.240 people I was expecting were the ones up there. I mean a lot of them are plausible. I mean if you 03:16:04.240 --> 03:16:08.160 ask me here does Rax have the ability to be up there leading and dragging. I'd say yeah 03:16:08.160 --> 03:16:12.800 absolutely right and he's obviously showed it. Sky I think is a big surprise.

That's 03:16:26.120 --> 03:16:27.120 always super, super difficult to 03:16:27.120 --> 03:16:28.120 do being found in the top five 03:16:28.120 --> 03:16:29.120 as individuals, but they're 03:16:29.120 --> 03:16:30.120 obviously doing super, super 03:16:30.120 --> 03:16:31.120 good. Yeah, but just the lack 03:16:31.120 --> 03:16:32.120 of like the teams that we are 03:16:32.120 --> 03:16:34.120 used to seeing find so many 03:16:34.120 --> 03:16:35.120 eliminations. Obviously like 03:16:35.120 --> 03:16:37.120 sure you kind of expect to kind 03:16:37.120 --> 03:16:38.120 of find his way up there, not 03:16:38.120 --> 03:16:40.120 up there necessarily yet. But 03:16:40.120 --> 03:16:41.120 that there's nine games up the 03:16:41.120 --> 03:16:42.120 plane. We know how good some 03:16:42.120 --> 03:16:43.120 of these players can be. I 03:16:43.120 --> 03:16:44.120 wouldn't be surprised if we do 03:16:44.120 --> 03:16:46.120 end the competition with some 03:16:46.120 --> 03:16:47.120 of those names in that 03:16:47.120 --> 03:16:48.760 And that's on five. 03:16:48.760 --> 03:16:50.400 Okay, okay, I like that. 03:16:50.400 --> 03:16:51.400 Guys, we're here. 03:16:51.400 --> 03:16:53.600 We're only three minutes out before getting ready 03:16:53.600 --> 03:16:55.720 to jump back into the battle bus. 03:16:55.720 --> 03:16:58.360 Let's remind ourselves with the old leaderboard, 03:16:58.360 --> 03:17:00.080 where are we at? 03:17:00.080 --> 03:17:02.000 Where do things stand? 03:17:02.000 --> 03:17:03.800 Well, what we do know is that Darman Demetra 03:17:03.800 --> 03:17:06.320 currently in that number one spot. 03:17:06.320 --> 03:17:08.040 Sky and Skrull were right behind them 03:17:08.040 --> 03:17:10.680 with Janison racks not that far behind, 03:17:10.680 --> 03:17:13.120 but boys, the competition is still very close. 03:17:13.120 --> 03:17:16.000 We saw what one game can do for any duo. 03:17:16.000 --> 03:17:18.120 I'm looking at Suzy and Pixie in fourth. 03:17:18.120 --> 03:17:19.080 Yeah. Of course. 03:17:19.080 --> 03:17:21.520 Again, I think the first three games of this competition, 03:17:21.520 --> 03:17:24.000 a lot of the teams we were expecting and predicting 03:17:24.000 --> 03:17:26.800 to be contenders to win, haven't quite been there. 03:17:26.800 --> 03:17:31.800 The one team that were considered big contenders was Suzy, 03:17:31.840 --> 03:17:32.960 was Pixie. 03:17:32.960 --> 03:17:34.760 They are the ones that look closest at least 03:17:34.760 --> 03:17:36.480 to delivering on that right now. 03:17:36.480 --> 03:17:39.240 A big third game there to move them up in the standings. 03:17:39.240 --> 03:17:41.920 Again, a team who I think is definitely finding the momentum, 03:17:41.920 --> 03:17:43.200 finding the rhythm in the Soviet, 03:17:43.200 --> 03:17:46.200 It's a scary, scary prospect for everybody else. 03:17:46.200 --> 03:17:48.200 Yeah, I mean, it's still fine other way towards the top of the leaderboard, 03:17:48.200 --> 03:17:52.200 but I think we have to get to kind of see the full potential of this duo. 03:17:52.200 --> 03:17:54.200 So, you guys kind of open the home. 03:17:54.200 --> 03:17:57.200 And it's just, they were about to be in a good position, 03:17:57.200 --> 03:18:00.200 and Swizzy kind of just get picked out of the sky there, 03:18:00.200 --> 03:18:03.200 but Pixie, solo clutch still makes it worth it. 03:18:03.200 --> 03:18:08.200 And that is just a prime example of just the minor details in Fortnite. 03:18:08.200 --> 03:18:10.200 Just him getting his head buffed there on the rotation, 03:18:10.200 --> 03:18:13.800 rotation having to spend that extra bit of time gets eliminated. 03:18:13.800 --> 03:18:14.100 Yeah. 03:18:14.100 --> 03:18:17.500 It's like you cannot afford to make mistakes in this lobby. 03:18:17.500 --> 03:18:21.500 These two are two players I don't expect to see making many more mistakes. 03:18:21.500 --> 03:18:25.600 And I think getting them out of the way in the first couple of games is obviously a good thing. 03:18:25.600 --> 03:18:26.400 Yeah, absolutely. 03:18:26.400 --> 03:18:28.700 Boys, three games left to go. 03:18:28.700 --> 03:18:29.800 We've had this time. 03:18:29.800 --> 03:18:30.200 Right. 03:18:30.200 --> 03:18:31.600 What are you guys anticipating?

03:18:50.440 --> 03:18:51.920 Like how our teams actually start to perform 03:18:51.920 --> 03:18:53.240 because even in like interviews, right? 03:18:53.240 --> 03:18:54.760 Sky and Skrull was like, yeah, the first three games 03:18:54.760 --> 03:18:55.920 we're kind of just like feeling it out. 03:18:55.920 --> 03:18:57.080 Now we kind of know what's happening. 03:18:57.080 --> 03:18:57.960 Have a little bit of break through 03:18:57.960 --> 03:18:59.560 where we can kind of discuss what we need to do 03:18:59.560 --> 03:19:01.400 and what we could potentially do. 03:19:01.400 --> 03:19:02.360 These teams have had the time. 03:19:02.360 --> 03:19:03.880 They've had those three kind of warm up games. 03:19:03.880 --> 03:19:05.880 They have the half time to kind of go ahead and compare. 03:19:05.880 --> 03:19:07.240 They know what they know. 03:19:07.240 --> 03:19:10.840 Now these games are going to start to meet a lot for me personally. 03:19:10.840 --> 03:19:13.240 Yeah, you took the words right in my mouth. 03:19:13.240 --> 03:19:17.240 Literally what I was going to say is, in the next three games, we are going to figure out 03:19:17.240 --> 03:19:20.840 who is actually going to be competing to win the Global Championships. 03:19:20.840 --> 03:19:24.240 I think this is where we start to see who is going to establish themselves to believe 03:19:24.240 --> 03:19:26.840 in the board, who are going to be the major threats. 03:19:26.840 --> 03:19:30.640 I'm not going to be here at the end of the day on the desk, but a stats request for 03:19:30.640 --> 03:19:34.040 when you guys are at the end of the desk, that I'll be very interested to see. 03:19:34.040 --> 03:19:37.740 I would love to know what the 03:19:37.740 --> 03:19:39.540 knowest position after day one. 03:19:39.540 --> 03:19:41.040 Somebody has come from to then 03:19:41.040 --> 03:19:42.040 win Globus right? 03:19:42.040 --> 03:19:43.540 That's really because again, 03:19:43.540 --> 03:19:45.040 as we get to game six, that's 03:19:45.040 --> 03:19:46.040 where we're really going to start 03:19:46.040 --> 03:19:47.540 to see like you actually has a 03:19:47.540 --> 03:19:49.040 chance of winning and historically 03:19:49.040 --> 03:19:50.040 where is that come from? 03:19:50.040 --> 03:19:52.040 Because yeah, you can't let these 03:19:52.040 --> 03:19:53.540 three games, whatever happened in 03:19:53.540 --> 03:19:54.540 those first three, put it 03:19:54.540 --> 03:19:55.540 beside you have to start to 03:19:55.540 --> 03:19:56.540 step up now. 03:19:56.540 --> 03:19:59.040 That's so crazy to think about, 03:19:59.040 --> 03:20:00.040 man. 03:20:00.040 --> 03:20:01.040 But yeah, I mean, again, 03:20:01.040 --> 03:20:02.040 obviously we can see your talk 03:20:02.040 --> 03:20:03.540 and I think so many people back 03:20:03.540 --> 03:20:05.380 people back at home, even fans here. 03:20:05.380 --> 03:20:06.220 Look at these players. 03:20:06.220 --> 03:20:07.660 They are the best players in the world, 03:20:07.660 --> 03:20:09.540 but how are these players feeling? 03:20:09.540 --> 03:20:10.380 How did they wake up? 03:20:10.380 --> 03:20:11.420 Do they feel okay? 03:20:11.420 --> 03:20:13.740 Are they, you know, under these lights 03:20:13.740 --> 03:20:15.140 and they're starting to break? 03:20:15.140 --> 03:20:17.700 Even if they are duo in a good place mentally, 03:20:17.700 --> 03:20:20.180 did someone accidentally say something crazy? 03:20:20.180 --> 03:20:21.900 Is my mouse just a little heavier 03:20:21.900 --> 03:20:22.740 than the one back at home? 03:20:22.740 --> 03:20:27.740 There's so many factors that go into this event, 03:20:28.180 --> 03:20:29.340 right, this type of citrus. 03:20:29.340 --> 03:20:31.240 I mean, Viv, you're a pro. 03:20:31.240 --> 03:20:32.360 You've gone through this before. 03:20:32.360 --> 03:20:36.200 you know what that's like. Yeah. I mean this and I was always very, very picky when it came 03:20:36.200 --> 03:20:40.200 down to the setups that any ever felt different at all. I was so uncomfortable. Like it really 03:20:40.200 --> 03:20:44.280 did. Does take you quite some time to actually get used to it. That being said, I mean I was 03:20:44.280 --> 03:20:47.400 pretty new to the game at that point because obviously I played when the game just kind 03:20:47.400 --> 03:20:50.280 of like kicked off and everything like that. But most of these players up there on the 03:20:50.280 --> 03:20:53.800 stage have kind of been exposed to this type of environment. In fact, there've been 03:20:53.800 --> 03:20:58.040 more lands this year. They've had the opportunity to be exposed to newer environments 03:20:58.040 --> 03:21:01.400 time and time again. So in my opinion, they should be used to it at this point, 03:21:01.400 --> 03:21:03.400 you know, you know, you're 03:21:03.400 --> 03:21:05.400 not going to be able to do 03:21:05.400 --> 03:21:06.400 that. You're not going to be 03:21:06.400 --> 03:21:07.400 able to do that. But hey, you 03:21:07.400 --> 03:21:08.400 never know. Yeah, of course, 03:21:08.400 --> 03:21:09.400 there's a couple of little 03:21:09.400 --> 03:21:10.400 is going to be a hand forward 03:21:10.400 --> 03:21:11.400 in our game of players who 03:21:11.400 --> 03:21:12.400 are new ones in this 03:21:12.400 --> 03:21:13.400 environment. We haven't had 03:21:13.400 --> 03:21:14.400 as many reps, but for the 03:21:14.400 --> 03:21:16.400 most part, a lot of the 03:21:16.400 --> 03:21:17.400 big hitters per se. They've 03:21:17.400 --> 03:21:18.400 been on the stage before 03:21:18.400 --> 03:21:19.400 they've been experiences. They 03:21:19.400 --> 03:21:20.400 should be used to those 03:21:20.400 --> 03:21:21.400 adjustments. You know, I 03:21:21.400 --> 03:21:22.400 was even joking around with 03:21:22.400 --> 03:21:23.400 some of the players like 03:21:23.400 --> 03:21:24.400 does it feel weird playing 03:21:24.400 --> 03:21:25.400 their shoes on when you're 03:21:25.400 --> 03:21:26.400 on the stage versus when 03:21:26.400 --> 03:21:27.400 you're not at home, and 03:21:27.400 --> 03:21:28.400 it's like a lot of them 03:21:28.400 --> 03:21:29.400 like not. I'm just getting 03:21:29.400 --> 03:21:30.400 used to, you know, so 03:21:30.400 --> 03:21:34.560 for the moment. Um, and so again, I don't want to see them type of excuses. I'm only here. 03:21:34.560 --> 03:21:38.400 You aren't comfortable with this word. The right height. You've been it. I think right 03:21:38.400 --> 03:21:41.440 now when I played, I just took my shoes off. Yeah. I was I was gonna say that took them 03:21:41.440 --> 03:21:45.120 off. Okay. So if you win the tournament, right, and you've got to walk up to lift the trophy, 03:21:45.120 --> 03:21:48.000 you're gonna like quickly slip the shoes on. Oh, you're just gonna put them on. 03:21:48.000 --> 03:21:53.760 Yeah, you got time. Right. Yeah, I just, I just won the competition. Just give me a moment 03:21:53.760 --> 03:21:57.920 to slip the old shoes on. Probably my worst habit when I've played professionally. I used to 03:21:57.920 --> 03:22:02.960 sit in my chair crisscross applesauce oh my feet didn't even touch the ground i like had to take my shoes off when i was 03:22:02.960 --> 03:22:07.200 well final band it's you know i don't quite do the same thing 03:22:08.960 --> 03:22:13.840 yeah dude maybe if you send like the throne of or like the FNC players are sitting in that might work 03:22:13.840 --> 03:22:18.720 yeah we can get to one of those i'll talk to someone make that happen for you uh well guess what fans 03:22:18.720 --> 03:22:23.520 mini miner had a chance he was walking around the venue getting the perspective from the fans on site 03:22:23.520 --> 03:22:24.480 Let's check this out. 03:22:25.360 --> 03:22:28.160 I'm here in the concourse and I wanted to ask some fans here 03:22:28.160 --> 03:22:31.440 who they think is going to take home the title at the end of the weekend. 03:22:31.440 --> 03:22:33.280 I'm here with Rudolf, a lot of you guys might recognise him. 03:22:33.280 --> 03:22:34.320 Who do you think is going to win? 03:22:34.320 --> 03:22:36.960 Honestly, I feel like Higgs and Curve are a really good chance. 03:22:36.960 --> 03:22:38.160 Clicks might have been holding back a bit. 03:22:38.160 --> 03:22:40.320 This might be his time to really prove it to everyone. 03:22:40.320 --> 03:22:41.120 I'm here with... 03:22:41.120 --> 03:22:41.840 Keanu. 03:22:41.840 --> 03:22:42.320 And? 03:22:42.320 --> 03:22:42.880 Finn. 03:22:42.880 --> 03:22:44.960 I want to ask you who you guys think is going to win this weekend. 03:22:44.960 --> 03:22:45.680 Who's taking it all? 03:22:45.680 --> 03:22:47.360 I mainly think it's going to be Shark and Tini. 03:22:47.360 --> 03:22:50.000 They are contested, but I think they got it in the bag, man. 03:22:50.000 --> 03:22:51.280 It's going to be exciting. What about you? 03:22:51.280 --> 03:22:54.960 Yeah, I really like clicks and, uh, and reppin. 03:22:54.960 --> 03:22:58.480 One of the XB42 boys. Who do you think's gonna win this weekend? 03:22:58.480 --> 03:23:00.400 Quick, quick, come on! 03:23:00.400 --> 03:23:01.920 Let's go! 03:23:01.920 --> 03:23:03.120 That's right. 03:23:03.120 --> 03:23:07.120 Thank you for that, hooded miner. Oh my gosh. 03:23:07.120 --> 03:23:09.200 Shark and Teenie was brought up, boys. 03:23:09.200 --> 03:23:10.960 Shark and Teenie was brought up. 03:23:10.960 --> 03:23:13.520 The ones that we thought would walk away, 03:23:13.520 --> 03:23:16.640 potentially winning this whole thing, have yet to show up. 03:23:16.640 --> 03:23:19.120 Is this the time, Levin? With three games left to go, 03:23:19.120 --> 03:23:20.320 anything can happen. 03:23:20.320 --> 03:23:31.320 I hope so for the sake of my own prediction selfish, but again, I'm not going to have to change. I do want to quickly point out next before you two boys because I've picked up Suzy and Pixie. 03:23:31.320 --> 03:23:40.320 Pringentower behind the point. Yeah, and so I came out and said, we're here to win no mucking about this weekend. Yeah, gotta be looking forward to it as well. 03:23:40.320 --> 03:23:45.040 as well. But I mean, even still, you kind of hear the predictions, we've seen all the predictions from 03:23:45.040 --> 03:23:48.320 obviously some of the big names in the scene. I don't think anybody kind of had dormant 03:23:48.320 --> 03:23:52.640 damage towards the top of, you know, winning the whole event for global championship. And I think 03:23:52.640 --> 03:23:56.000 that's kind of the sentiment going into this global championship is that's the predictions 03:23:56.000 --> 03:24:00.000 in general. I've just been very, very difficult to actually establish and be like, yeah, 03:24:00.000 --> 03:24:06.000 I am confident in this list, which obviously is great for us in a viewing perspective because 03:24:06.000 --> 03:24:09.040 really, that just means we're going to get some great 49 and it's probably going to be very, 03:24:09.040 --> 03:24:14.600 very very close when you get down to the end. Take a look at the second page though, maybe we see Curb and Higgs. 03:24:14.600 --> 03:24:20.040 I mentioned it in zero points since you know game number one, Rapid and Clicks also kind of in that area. 03:24:20.040 --> 03:24:26.800 Shark and Tini, 84 points for them as well. Acorn and Boltsman, it looks like the NA boys are kind of just hanging out in this general area around 80 points. 03:24:28.360 --> 03:24:34.960 No, Levin, stop! Cameraman, do not go to Levin immediately. Do not cut to a close-up. Do not worry about it. 03:24:34.960 --> 03:24:37.960 Don't you stop stop production? 03:24:39.760 --> 03:24:44.600 I'm even gonna say that I'm just gonna leave the boat man.

It's my birthday and I get blessed with great fortnight action 03:27:31.380 --> 03:27:34.700 And honestly, I got to give huge shout out to spy in scroll 03:27:34.700 --> 03:27:39.740 We all looked at that triple contested fight and said nah all those teams are done cut up 03:27:39.740 --> 03:27:44.340 Nobody really guessed them into the top ten and they have changed things up game four is ready 03:27:44.340 --> 03:27:46.340 Can they continue the jump in? 03:27:53.860 --> 03:28:05.700 I mean, Jacob, you're talking about the general public not expecting this for Skye and Skrull. 03:28:05.700 --> 03:28:11.260 I mean, Skye and Skrull themselves had zero idea that this was actually going to go down. 03:28:11.260 --> 03:28:17.860 But obviously, there are going to be more complications involved at that BOI, Reality's 03:28:17.860 --> 03:28:18.860 Rain. 03:28:18.860 --> 03:28:20.700 It's just not an easy spot to work with. 03:28:20.700 --> 03:28:25.020 I mean, we are seeing heavy hitters like Pete Hoyle, shortworked out the course of today. 03:28:25.020 --> 03:28:27.740 Mshari and Salva equally similar footing. 03:28:27.740 --> 03:28:37.180 They just haven't really been able to find that sort of presence that can really measure up to the performance that Sky and Squirrel have delivered so far today. 03:28:37.180 --> 03:28:45.940 But obviously, Jacob, we want to ensure that everyone is on equal footing for these opening stances after the halfway mark. 03:28:45.940 --> 03:28:47.540 and it almost makes you wonder, you know, 03:28:47.540 --> 03:28:49.260 depending on how far you're able to drop 03:28:49.260 --> 03:28:50.820 into a situation like that. 03:28:50.820 --> 03:28:52.300 If you're stone saying them, 03:28:52.300 --> 03:28:53.980 which also has acorn and bolts, 03:28:53.980 --> 03:28:55.180 even though we haven't really seen them 03:28:55.180 --> 03:28:56.380 in the off-spawn fights, 03:28:56.380 --> 03:28:57.580 but you also have realities, 03:28:57.580 --> 03:29:00.140 rain and any other contested drops for that matter. 03:29:00.140 --> 03:29:02.380 If the tournament hasn't been going your way, 03:29:02.380 --> 03:29:04.000 I think this is the halfway point 03:29:04.000 --> 03:29:05.500 to try something different. 03:29:05.500 --> 03:29:07.940 You don't have to do anything drastically different 03:29:07.940 --> 03:29:10.780 by any means, but you cannot continue 03:29:10.780 --> 03:29:13.580 in the same trend with the way things are going, 03:29:13.580 --> 03:29:15.300 how they're going, especially if you're a little bit 03:29:15.300 --> 03:29:20.300 you would have expected obviously if your sky and scroll you don't want anything to change. 03:29:20.300 --> 03:29:24.300 You're getting the better of the mix. We saw them kind of take the south side of realities 03:29:24.300 --> 03:29:29.300 rain in a couple games. We also saw them kind of disengage entirely towards that south mountain 03:29:29.300 --> 03:29:33.300 showing that hey no matter what happens they're ready to turn the page and figure it out. 03:29:33.300 --> 03:29:39.300 And look don't get me wrong. Obviously I'm going to be excited when I see you doing their thing. 03:29:39.300 --> 03:29:44.300 Also seeing the representation from a lot of our international regions has been very impressive 03:29:44.300 --> 03:29:46.200 that there is a special someone 03:29:46.200 --> 03:29:47.800 here in this audience today that 03:29:47.800 --> 03:29:49.760 was incredibly loud throughout the 03:29:49.760 --> 03:29:51.860 course of this week inside of that 03:29:51.860 --> 03:29:53.540 practice room area and Jacob you 03:29:53.540 --> 03:29:55.240 should already know exactly who I'm 03:29:55.240 --> 03:29:56.800 alluding to it's a big brother 03:29:56.800 --> 03:29:59.720 himself facts and I need him to keep 03:29:59.720 --> 03:30:02.000 getting loud because this is almost 03:30:02.000 --> 03:30:03.320 starting to be like salt in the wound. 03:30:03.320 --> 03:30:05.720 I look over 11 I see him making 03:30:05.720 --> 03:30:08.120 these faces the satisfaction that 03:30:08.120 --> 03:30:10.920 shared between us but we love seeing 03:30:10.920 --> 03:30:12.440 a good fight get put up at the same 03:30:12.440 --> 03:30:19.480 time. And so for NA specifically, we need to see that kind of motivation. I don't I don't 03:30:19.480 --> 03:30:24.900 care what it takes from facts. Lacey Ron, whoever is necessary, but get loud, make them 03:30:24.900 --> 03:30:30.300 proud like it showcase that you are still having signs of life out of that region. Yeah, 03:30:30.300 --> 03:30:34.260 and honestly, whether you watch sports or eSports, you kind of know the phrasing 03:30:34.260 --> 03:30:38.940 any given Sunday, anything can happen at any moment, which is why you play the 03:30:38.940 --> 03:30:43.740 games out and we really need to see that from Peter botten poyo we have seen tremendous 03:30:43.740 --> 03:30:48.540 comebacks from them and other teams that are also in this lobby when things have looked 03:30:48.540 --> 03:30:54.220 pretty kind of look at ages in Venno during their major one victory are to say ages are 03:30:54.220 --> 03:30:58.420 to say Venno and curve excuse me there during their major one actual victory they were 03:30:58.420 --> 03:31:03.820 behind they weren't in contention necessarily for that first place spot but they came back 03:31:03.820 --> 03:31:08.080 they change up the strategy they got plenty more eliminations they handle their storm 03:31:08.080 --> 03:31:12.080 and so we've seen teams kind of laid down a little bit of a blueprint. 03:31:12.080 --> 03:31:14.080 Yes, a much drastically different game of the past, 03:31:14.080 --> 03:31:16.080 especially with the changes to storm surge, 03:31:16.080 --> 03:31:18.080 but I still think anything is possible 03:31:18.080 --> 03:31:20.080 and Skynescroll has proven that to be true. 03:31:20.080 --> 03:31:22.080 Without a doubt, and not only that, 03:31:22.080 --> 03:31:26.080 but I mean even continuing that topic of just the NA presence 03:31:26.080 --> 03:31:29.080 and seeing them really step into the limelight here, 03:31:29.080 --> 03:31:32.080 I think more specifically there's been so much emphasis 03:31:32.080 --> 03:31:34.080 on the whole Peterbott-Hoyo narrative, 03:31:34.080 --> 03:31:36.080 but you have to remember, 03:31:36.080 --> 03:31:43.080 We have so many heavy hitters from NA representing at the global championship, Acorn and Bolts. 03:31:43.080 --> 03:31:46.080 They're always going to come to the forefront of my mind. 03:31:46.080 --> 03:31:53.080 I think that those two specifically, when they really find their rhythm, they're a very scary team to actually try and shut down. 03:31:53.080 --> 03:31:57.080 We know just how impeccable the performances have been from the online nature. 03:31:57.080 --> 03:32:02.080 And to see that carryover into the LAN environment would just be a perfect send-off on day one. 03:32:02.080 --> 03:32:05.080 But these teams, they're going to need to start finding that catalyst soon enough. 03:32:05.080 --> 03:32:08.620 enough we have seen a little bit of a notion from it out of the likes of clicks 03:32:08.620 --> 03:32:12.640 and rapid even but it's not easy the competition is that stiff here today 03:32:12.640 --> 03:32:17.240 yeah definitely is you're honestly seeing big names honestly in all regions kind 03:32:17.240 --> 03:32:20.640 of hitting a little speed bumps but you also seeing big names in those same 03:32:20.640 --> 03:32:25.600 regions we saw randu grx get a win so far coyota and yuma and that was the 03:32:25.600 --> 03:32:28.640 biggest one for me considering what happened in the past but the game is 03:32:28.640 --> 03:32:32.160 ready so let's give it a go 03:32:35.080 --> 03:32:52.720 of a speed bump, but these teams have all had a brief opportunity to sit and review, pick 03:32:52.720 --> 03:32:57.860 the brains of the coaches that are present to see what kind of new strategies you can 03:32:57.860 --> 03:32:58.860 muster up. 03:32:58.860 --> 03:33:03.120 But biggest takeaway from me during one of those halftime interviews was what Sky and 03:33:03.120 --> 03:33:11.120 scroll had initially landed on. We are freestyling. That word just speaks monuments to today because 03:33:11.120 --> 03:33:16.440 there has been no premeditated plan I think that has actually come to fruition the whole 03:33:16.440 --> 03:33:17.440 way through. 03:33:17.440 --> 03:33:20.800 Yep, and kind of seeing another one of our contested fights throughout the day, the Stone 03:33:20.800 --> 03:33:25.320 Sancton, and it's been essentially days two teams here, Max into the first one going 03:33:25.320 --> 03:33:29.960 down, Jinu gets the drop spot and gets the opening elimination for him and Paava, 03:33:29.960 --> 03:33:31.240 But they got to be careful. 03:33:31.240 --> 03:33:32.360 You draw this one out. 03:33:32.360 --> 03:33:34.600 Acorn and Bolts, my ear, what's going on? 03:33:34.600 --> 03:33:35.960 They are separated from now. 03:33:35.960 --> 03:33:37.920 That's probably Acorn and Bolts strategy. 03:33:37.920 --> 03:33:39.640 Lude up, take the fight later. 03:33:39.640 --> 03:33:41.320 But DeGroire is going to be by himself. 03:33:41.320 --> 03:33:42.480 And he has no extra shield. 03:33:42.480 --> 03:33:45.800 So this is going to be one tough hill to kind of conquer. 03:33:45.800 --> 03:33:48.200 He's got to nail the perfect shot. 03:33:48.200 --> 03:33:50.120 And more importantly still, he might not even 03:33:50.120 --> 03:33:51.840 be looking for a shot, period. 03:33:51.840 --> 03:33:54.680 He might just be hoping that he can actually 03:33:54.680 --> 03:33:56.640 just scurry out of the vicinity. 03:33:56.640 --> 03:33:58.440 He doesn't want to find himself 03:33:58.440 --> 03:34:00.000 getting fully eliminated. 03:34:00.000 --> 03:34:03.000 That would just spend this offspots so favorably 03:34:03.000 --> 03:34:07.440 towards Chino and Pablo, despite such a strong start in game 03:34:07.440 --> 03:34:11.920 one, the Etta map just struggling to repeat it. 03:34:11.920 --> 03:34:15.200 All right there, Chino did not see that one coming. 03:34:15.200 --> 03:34:18.120 Does have it down to a 1v1 in an HP lead, 03:34:18.120 --> 03:34:20.920 but it's the numbers game that's working against them. 03:34:20.920 --> 03:34:23.960 Rangers going to hit, kind of tag him up just a little bit 03:34:23.960 --> 03:34:24.320 more. 03:34:24.320 --> 03:34:26.360 And yes, he does grab the reboot card, 03:34:26.360 --> 03:34:29.440 But where is he gonna go to actually make it matter? 03:34:29.440 --> 03:34:31.560 Because Pablo's still closing in on the distance. 03:34:31.560 --> 03:34:33.600 You gotta understand that Gino is as well. 03:34:33.600 --> 03:34:35.880 They're taking two different approaches to this fight, 03:34:35.880 --> 03:34:38.240 but they're still being very, very calculated. 03:34:38.240 --> 03:34:40.200 Running straight in, W King, 03:34:40.200 --> 03:34:41.320 they're just trying to take their time 03:34:41.320 --> 03:34:42.920 and make sure they secure the elimination 03:34:42.920 --> 03:34:44.280 without taking too much damage. 03:34:44.280 --> 03:34:46.800 You have to be calculated in these types of scenarios 03:34:46.800 --> 03:34:49.200 and Gino, I'm not gonna miss a beat here. 03:34:49.200 --> 03:34:52.320 The Etta has been shut down effectively. 03:34:52.320 --> 03:34:55.040 They will have control of the POI 03:34:55.040 --> 03:34:57.280 and lead Brazil back to the drawing board. 03:34:57.280 --> 03:35:00.480 But Bolts, Acorn, they might have sniffed out 03:35:00.480 --> 03:35:04.800 that little bit of a delay, that slight hiccup in the game plan. 03:35:04.800 --> 03:35:07.480 And we're talking about delays. 03:35:07.480 --> 03:35:09.120 Oh, yes, Thomas. 03:35:09.120 --> 03:35:10.640 They are quick. 03:35:10.640 --> 03:35:11.640 Whoa, whoa, whoa. 03:35:11.640 --> 03:35:14.080 You notice something right there, though, right? 03:35:14.080 --> 03:35:18.200 Focus and Thomas going against Shadow and Virgo. 03:35:18.200 --> 03:35:21.320 Remember, Shadow and Virgo is a team that has marked 03:35:21.320 --> 03:35:23.600 the far eastern side of the map. 03:35:23.600 --> 03:35:25.240 So they're already changing things up. 03:35:25.240 --> 03:35:27.720 Human Coyote over at Cluster Coast. 03:35:27.720 --> 03:35:29.960 They've been winning this more times than not. 03:35:29.960 --> 03:35:33.120 And here goes another example of that. 03:35:33.120 --> 03:35:36.680 This is the team from Asia inside of the top 10. 03:35:36.680 --> 03:35:40.120 One of only two non-EU teams even inside of the top 10. 03:35:40.120 --> 03:35:42.640 Hey, a tough break there, the four little Frenchies. 03:35:42.640 --> 03:35:45.040 But still, a couple of these left 03:35:45.040 --> 03:35:47.680 to look for a recovery point. 03:35:47.680 --> 03:35:49.240 Bigger take away still though. 03:35:49.240 --> 03:35:50.200 We see Sky and Sparrow. 03:35:50.200 --> 03:35:53.320 We saw Salva and Shari briefly. 03:35:53.320 --> 03:35:55.360 But Skye's fault, they don't have eliminations. 03:35:55.360 --> 03:35:59.840 Pete Pollo don't appear to be anywhere near reality rank 03:35:59.840 --> 03:36:02.040 currently, and that leads meatably, Jego, 03:36:02.040 --> 03:36:04.240 that they either steered off rather rapidly 03:36:04.240 --> 03:36:06.080 like we have seen them do in previous lobbies, 03:36:06.080 --> 03:36:09.120 or they decide to pull the dice on a different strategy 03:36:09.120 --> 03:36:09.760 altogether. 03:36:09.760 --> 03:36:11.840 Yeah, seeing both Skye and Skrull really just 03:36:11.840 --> 03:36:13.720 played comfortably whatever's tossed at them. 03:36:13.720 --> 03:36:15.640 And then you kind of see Darman and Demis here. 03:36:15.640 --> 03:36:17.240 Both of these teams, Skye and Skrull, 03:36:17.240 --> 03:36:19.920 Darman and Demis are two leaders in terms 03:36:19.920 --> 03:36:21.840 of overall damage. 03:36:21.840 --> 03:36:24.420 They're one, or say two of three teams, 03:36:24.420 --> 03:36:25.940 over 3,000 altogether. 03:36:25.940 --> 03:36:29.600 Darned Deemers 35, 100, Skynes Squall 3400, 03:36:29.600 --> 03:36:31.760 even out of that triple contested drop. 03:36:31.760 --> 03:36:33.320 Darned Deemers, just like you said, 03:36:33.320 --> 03:36:34.880 what's kind of opening the gap 03:36:34.880 --> 03:36:36.440 between them and some of the other teams 03:36:36.440 --> 03:36:38.440 is just the pure elimination. 03:36:38.440 --> 03:36:42.080 They have 20 eliminations so far in this game. 03:36:42.080 --> 03:36:43.120 And you've got to think, Taco, 03:36:43.120 --> 03:36:46.680 the next highest team is Rocks and Yanis, which won. 03:36:46.680 --> 03:36:49.000 An elimination points being worth four of keys. 03:36:49.000 --> 03:36:52.040 Well, it's not exactly the prioritization 03:36:52.040 --> 03:36:53.120 from so many of these teams. 03:36:53.120 --> 03:36:55.120 Obviously, they're all gonna be hunting out 03:36:55.120 --> 03:36:58.240 for peak placement, but it's still four points, Jacob. 03:36:58.240 --> 03:36:59.600 It builds up fast. 03:36:59.600 --> 03:37:03.460 And one thing that has been very occurring 03:37:03.460 --> 03:37:05.000 throughout each of these online majors 03:37:05.000 --> 03:37:07.720 for throughout all of these lands 03:37:07.720 --> 03:37:09.800 is that you need big elimination counts 03:37:09.800 --> 03:37:12.440 to really build up leads that give you that buffer zone. 03:37:12.440 --> 03:37:14.480 And for Pete Coyle, well, 03:37:14.480 --> 03:37:16.080 looks like they wanted to pay Shark and Tini 03:37:16.080 --> 03:37:17.240 a little bit of a visit here, 03:37:17.240 --> 03:37:20.560 but hasn't exactly edited them anything just yet. 03:37:20.560 --> 03:37:22.000 You asked the question yourself, 03:37:22.000 --> 03:37:25.040 where in the world is Pete and Poyo? 03:37:25.040 --> 03:37:27.160 We see him kind of rotating towards the east 03:37:27.160 --> 03:37:29.680 his time around, just outside of Golden Grove, 03:37:29.680 --> 03:37:30.720 Sharkatini as well. 03:37:30.720 --> 03:37:32.560 That's what we saw in that last game, 03:37:32.560 --> 03:37:34.960 that massive surge tower that they built, 03:37:34.960 --> 03:37:37.160 trying to help accumulate that surge. 03:37:37.160 --> 03:37:39.880 So even though these two teams aren't necessarily 03:37:39.880 --> 03:37:41.840 going to fight, you gotta go ahead 03:37:41.840 --> 03:37:43.240 and give Pete and Poyo a little bit of credit 03:37:43.240 --> 03:37:44.280 for trying to change things up 03:37:44.280 --> 03:37:46.280 and take control of their own destiny. 03:37:46.280 --> 03:37:48.760 They say change things up, but Shark and Teenie, 03:37:48.760 --> 03:37:50.440 they seem like they were expecting that. 03:37:50.440 --> 03:37:55.240 They've been free plotting how to avoid it all day long. 03:37:55.240 --> 03:37:58.160 And they're able to measure up no problem, 03:37:58.160 --> 03:38:00.920 start things off here in game four. 03:38:00.920 --> 03:38:04.000 Have to attest a little bit of that towards Coach Queezy. 03:38:04.000 --> 03:38:06.600 Sometimes it helps to have that pro experience, 03:38:06.600 --> 03:38:08.680 that insight and Teenie in them, 03:38:08.680 --> 03:38:10.280 what the revisits see what happens next. 03:38:10.280 --> 03:38:12.480 But Venom and Agers, they want to take a bite 03:38:12.480 --> 03:38:13.960 out of Rex and Yannis. 03:38:13.960 --> 03:38:19.880 Will this lurk work? Venno, the patent pending situation here. 03:38:19.880 --> 03:38:24.520 He's done it, tournament after tournament, almost year after year at this point in time. 03:38:24.520 --> 03:38:31.120 You see her in the crowd, just going crazy right now and they have absolutely no clue. 03:38:31.120 --> 03:38:36.160 He already rotated past, they're trying to look and figure it out, but the chop is in. 03:38:36.160 --> 03:38:39.160 Brax at least saves himself, not before taking a little bit of damage. 03:38:39.160 --> 03:38:41.600 Yannis as well, the chop is in. 03:38:41.600 --> 03:38:43.700 Venno and Agers have gotten a good amount of damage 03:38:43.700 --> 03:38:45.240 and it even looks like they're trying to approach 03:38:45.240 --> 03:38:47.240 the situation from two different angles. 03:38:47.240 --> 03:38:48.840 But they've got to win their ones 03:38:48.840 --> 03:38:51.200 if they're going to try and collapse that swiftly. 03:38:51.200 --> 03:38:55.120 And Venno, Agers, that took a very split apart. 03:38:55.120 --> 03:38:57.240 Rax and Yannis have at least staked them off 03:38:57.240 --> 03:39:00.040 for the time being and you've got to be so cautious 03:39:00.040 --> 03:39:03.240 with how you step next because Swizzy, Pixie, 03:39:03.240 --> 03:39:06.440 always going to be a background factor here. 03:39:06.440 --> 03:39:09.400 And Venno, just lurking about one more time 03:39:09.400 --> 03:39:10.720 going to apply a little bit of pressure now 03:39:10.720 --> 03:39:14.120 against Yanis, but even with those opening shots, 03:39:14.120 --> 03:39:17.840 it hasn't actually invaded them just yet. 03:39:17.840 --> 03:39:19.040 Yeah, neither team. 03:39:19.040 --> 03:39:20.320 Kind of really getting the benefit. 03:39:20.320 --> 03:39:23.960 Yanis-Rax, honestly, surviving there is a plus for Venno. 03:39:23.960 --> 03:39:26.240 Adrian, they had a good amount of damage onto Rax, 03:39:26.240 --> 03:39:28.520 but then eventually they did take it back. 03:39:28.520 --> 03:39:31.760 So you've got to wonder how much damage overall 03:39:31.760 --> 03:39:33.840 did they kind of net in that situation 03:39:33.840 --> 03:39:35.080 as Venno-Ager's go back. 03:39:35.080 --> 03:39:36.840 Over towards that vending machine, 03:39:36.840 --> 03:39:38.920 see Rax-Yanis kind of reposition. 03:39:38.920 --> 03:39:40.800 They used so many mats for that first tower. 03:39:40.800 --> 03:39:42.600 I'm going to go for it again here. 03:39:42.600 --> 03:39:45.280 It is very active right now, though. 03:39:45.280 --> 03:39:49.200 Over by Walkie Land, Slepsie, Wagers. 03:39:49.200 --> 03:39:52.480 Now trying to throw their names into the mix. 03:39:52.480 --> 03:39:55.160 Slepsie, Wagers. 03:39:55.160 --> 03:39:57.720 Not sure if they were initially trying to go to the tone 03:39:57.720 --> 03:39:59.960 without Ian Fishy, or if it was Leo and Romero 03:39:59.960 --> 03:40:01.080 that they ran into first. 03:40:01.080 --> 03:40:04.720 But either way, at third 40 presents, 03:40:04.720 --> 03:40:07.280 still not netting them anything more than maybe 03:40:07.280 --> 03:40:08.680 a little bit of additional surge damage. 03:40:08.680 --> 03:40:12.440 They might have even intervened with a full elimination sequence there, 03:40:12.440 --> 03:40:14.840 because Layla didn't see Romero anywhere in sight. 03:40:14.840 --> 03:40:17.840 Yeah, luckily for him, though, you can kind of see both of them kind of 03:40:17.840 --> 03:40:19.520 relatively distracted by one another. 03:40:19.520 --> 03:40:21.680 I can continue to kind of move towards the outskirts and 03:40:21.680 --> 03:40:25.240 potentially get the reboot back in the game. 03:40:25.240 --> 03:40:28.640 To continue to watch all teams around the map, Shark and Teenie. 03:40:28.640 --> 03:40:33.040 I felt like so many teams, you know, fantasies, thanks to 11, 03:40:33.040 --> 03:40:35.640 so many teams' predictions on social media, 03:40:35.640 --> 03:40:39.600 had short and teeny near or on the top of that list. 03:40:39.600 --> 03:40:42.960 So to see a mere 84 points, not necessarily drastic, 03:40:42.960 --> 03:40:45.480 you got to imagine them in a desperate situation, 03:40:45.480 --> 03:40:48.640 but I think everybody thought they would be much further 03:40:48.640 --> 03:40:52.040 up the leaderboard, much more kind of taking over the game 03:40:52.040 --> 03:40:53.160 and confident overall. 03:40:53.160 --> 03:40:55.640 What makes them so threatening is 03:40:55.640 --> 03:40:58.480 that they can have that pop-off performance. 03:40:58.480 --> 03:41:01.760 When you see them size up with those double elimination 03:41:01.760 --> 03:41:05.160 victory royals just like that, 03:41:05.160 --> 03:41:08.560 It changes things up so swiftly on the leaderboard. 03:41:08.560 --> 03:41:13.160 So even if they're sitting a little bit closer to the top, 03:41:13.160 --> 03:41:16.440 it's so easy for them to overcome that 03:41:16.440 --> 03:41:19.200 with one solid performance. 03:41:19.200 --> 03:41:23.640 And Josh Yamzo still hanging out over by Battle Woods, 03:41:23.640 --> 03:41:26.240 but nothing is safe here currently. 03:41:26.240 --> 03:41:30.560 So many other teams also just kind of prowling. 03:41:30.560 --> 03:41:33.360 Yeah, we already saw Feno kind of move in and around 03:41:33.360 --> 03:41:34.240 this location. 03:41:34.240 --> 03:41:38.540 That moves so quickly through the battlewoods each and every side. 03:41:38.540 --> 03:41:40.400 That's why you see him being a little bit more careful. 03:41:40.400 --> 03:41:41.880 Sia, scary. 03:41:41.880 --> 03:41:43.880 You can kind of see them not necessarily just working 03:41:43.880 --> 03:41:45.120 for damage possible. 03:41:45.120 --> 03:41:46.920 The elimination here on this side of the map 03:41:46.920 --> 03:41:48.820 is that mending machine. 03:41:48.820 --> 03:41:51.880 You can kind of see the force flashes full chug chug in scary. 03:41:51.880 --> 03:41:53.440 You want to kind of buy med kits 03:41:53.440 --> 03:41:55.440 and kind of stay in the zone that much longer. 03:41:55.440 --> 03:41:57.960 But on the other side of that is going to be Peterbot 03:41:57.960 --> 03:42:01.000 and Puyo, where we kind of seen a drastic change 03:42:01.000 --> 03:42:03.440 in this game going towards the eastern side of the map. 03:42:03.440 --> 03:42:06.600 But honestly, at this stage in the game, it might have worked out. 03:42:06.600 --> 03:42:09.520 They have a much better loadout than three of the games we've seen so far. 03:42:09.720 --> 03:42:10.720 Heat and Pollo. 03:42:10.760 --> 03:42:14.520 They are boxed up and they look like they want to stick around for quite some time. 03:42:14.520 --> 03:42:18.280 They're hoping to try and play interceptors to anybody that might be 03:42:18.280 --> 03:42:20.760 looking to hit those machines, get a little bit of additional 03:42:20.760 --> 03:42:24.600 heals, buy some time inside of taking those early storm ticks. 03:42:25.320 --> 03:42:26.520 They can prevent that. 03:42:26.520 --> 03:42:29.840 That might be the perfect opportunity for them to swing things back into their 03:42:29.840 --> 03:42:32.920 favor because very similarly, Sharkantini, Pollo. 03:42:32.920 --> 03:42:35.180 We know exactly what they're capable of. 03:42:35.180 --> 03:42:37.380 They can always have that huge game 03:42:37.380 --> 03:42:39.060 to just turn things back in their favor. 03:42:39.060 --> 03:42:41.800 Yeah, especially if they feel like they have nothing to lose here. 03:42:41.800 --> 03:42:46.060 Janus, Rax rotating back over towards the chop shop. 03:42:46.060 --> 03:42:47.660 It is going to be a one tick zone for now. 03:42:47.660 --> 03:42:51.260 Once we get to the fifth, that's when it is going to start to ramp up just a little bit. 03:42:51.260 --> 03:42:53.620 Kind of become painful by the sixth. 03:42:53.620 --> 03:42:56.900 Rax goes in, gets the first drop on the Saizers from up above. 03:42:56.900 --> 03:42:58.820 Maybe a little help from the storm on top of that. 03:42:58.820 --> 03:43:01.540 The saw feed, he takes another big shot. 03:43:01.540 --> 03:43:05.940 Brax feeding that one up, not only getting the loop of the siphon, so he doesn't have to use the medkit, 03:43:05.940 --> 03:43:12.940 and now they find themselves literally out of the way of every third-party potential in a 2v1 situation. 03:43:12.940 --> 03:43:16.640 Tick, tick, tick, clock is ticking here for Salty. 03:43:16.640 --> 03:43:18.440 Big shot there, though. 03:43:18.440 --> 03:43:20.440 Yanada has dropped incredibly low. 03:43:20.440 --> 03:43:27.540 Unfortunately for him, though, Brax finding healthy, and Brax looking to just continue bearing down on where Salty is at, 03:43:27.540 --> 03:43:31.440 not really giving him the chance to try and close in. 03:43:31.440 --> 03:43:35.840 Yanis already finding up to you to heal up with Rax taking the offensive front now. 03:43:35.840 --> 03:43:39.640 Sobi's still just dancing around inside the garage here. 03:43:39.640 --> 03:43:44.940 If they take too long, other teams might decide to intervene and Yanis has actually been dropped. 03:43:44.940 --> 03:43:48.340 Sobi, just like that, has now floored it. 03:43:48.340 --> 03:43:54.440 The initial intentions here even with Rax closing things out, the damage has already been done in HQ. 03:43:54.440 --> 03:43:57.240 So nearby, might be able to take Rax out for it. 03:43:57.240 --> 03:44:01.000 And, luckily for Rax, he was trying to pop that big pot, instantly cancels out, 03:44:01.000 --> 03:44:03.000 he makes it to play over towards the reboot fan. 03:44:03.000 --> 03:44:07.640 Earlier in this game, encrypted did get taken down, which is HQ's teammate. 03:44:07.640 --> 03:44:10.880 These guys already know the last chance global qualifier. 03:44:10.880 --> 03:44:14.960 They earned their right to be here, but they realize it's not going to come easy. 03:44:14.960 --> 03:44:16.920 Actually playing in a lobby just like this, 03:44:16.920 --> 03:44:19.480 luckily for him, he is above the damage threshold. 03:44:19.480 --> 03:44:20.320 Rax is not. 03:44:20.320 --> 03:44:24.000 So, Rax is honestly getting blessed with an opportunity to fight this year. 03:44:24.000 --> 03:44:29.000 You say, bless, but this looks like more of an issue than not HQ 03:44:29.000 --> 03:44:33.800 understanding the fact that this is a player that's clearly pressed for time. 03:44:33.800 --> 03:44:36.500 Rax, everybody hits, and Big Shot's going to land. 03:44:36.500 --> 03:44:40.800 Only 61 damage separates Rax from being above that sort of threshold. 03:44:40.800 --> 03:44:43.300 Just narrowly avoiding falling and even himself. 03:44:43.300 --> 03:44:46.800 HQ now still looking to try and apply some additional pressure here, 03:44:46.800 --> 03:44:49.100 but Rax, he's better to get the job done. 03:44:49.100 --> 03:44:51.500 Gannis has made it back into the lobby. 03:44:51.500 --> 03:44:54.940 And you can kind of see the surge lightning up just a little bit with her turn out. 03:44:54.940 --> 03:44:59.980 Yan is kind of resets for him, but it's still above for HQ and below on the other side. 03:44:59.980 --> 03:45:01.740 So he just needs to survive. 03:45:01.740 --> 03:45:04.060 I don't know if HQ has the information. 03:45:04.060 --> 03:45:06.940 He's probably not here in this form, sir, to actually take him down. 03:45:06.940 --> 03:45:12.060 But if he just stays alive long enough, he could probably hit a one pump to take him down. 03:45:12.060 --> 03:45:13.660 Yan is already disengaging. 03:45:13.660 --> 03:45:15.180 So this is essentially a 1v1. 03:45:15.180 --> 03:45:20.660 and Rax versus HQ and Rax is now taking out the serve of 95. 03:45:20.660 --> 03:45:22.260 Big shot from above. 03:45:22.260 --> 03:45:25.060 He pushes down on the HQ again. 03:45:25.060 --> 03:45:29.780 He is playing with so much freedom here as he gets the elimination. 03:45:29.780 --> 03:45:31.900 Lights out onto Rax. 03:45:31.900 --> 03:45:35.060 Sure enough, those kinds of shots. 03:45:35.060 --> 03:45:37.780 He couldn't afford to miss the rookie just 03:45:37.780 --> 03:45:40.180 delivering in the heat of the moment. 03:45:40.180 --> 03:45:44.180 And that is going to buy every single second there for himself 03:45:44.180 --> 03:45:47.060 and Yanis to try and look for a recovery point. 03:45:49.060 --> 03:45:52.300 Kind of seeing that, again, I mentioned that they're so isolated. 03:45:52.300 --> 03:45:54.300 They are so far away. 03:45:54.300 --> 03:45:56.540 So, Rax, Yanis, we'll get back in the game. 03:45:56.540 --> 03:45:58.980 But look where Venno and Agnes are actually at. 03:45:58.980 --> 03:46:02.060 They're center map, and they're not even at the zone yet. 03:46:02.060 --> 03:46:04.100 They got a max pull. 03:46:04.100 --> 03:46:05.700 It's going to be tough for not only them, 03:46:05.700 --> 03:46:08.460 but everybody else to try to rotate in. 03:46:08.460 --> 03:46:10.740 You can see how congested it actually is. 03:46:10.740 --> 03:46:13.540 So it's not going to come without its sacrifices. 03:46:13.540 --> 03:46:18.360 may need to take damage all along the way, unless you want to go ahead and try to wait 03:46:18.360 --> 03:46:20.880 as long as possible into the five tip, which I don't recommend. 03:46:21.880 --> 03:46:28.560 All the managers found some additional tags there on to Phasma and Crusades. No one really 03:46:28.560 --> 03:46:33.320 willing to risk it just yet, but they're gonna have to get a move on eventually and 03:46:33.320 --> 03:46:38.440 they are open to taking up. They can't to start off with they know that they put 03:46:38.440 --> 03:46:41.560 fast on Crusades and a little bit of an awkward spot getting those initial damage 03:46:41.560 --> 03:46:44.280 tags in, but a thorn has fallen. 03:46:44.280 --> 03:46:47.740 It's all of the bolts now, and he's just got so many different 03:46:47.740 --> 03:46:49.240 directions to look as a solo. 03:46:49.240 --> 03:46:50.640 It's a lot to keep track of. 03:46:50.640 --> 03:46:52.040 Yeah, it's busting years. 03:46:52.040 --> 03:46:53.240 Two tick into five. 03:46:53.240 --> 03:46:54.680 So yes, it is going to hurt the HP, 03:46:54.680 --> 03:46:57.760 but he was above the damage thresholds. 03:46:57.760 --> 03:47:01.600 And look plentiful, but instantly falls 164. 03:47:01.600 --> 03:47:03.600 That's what essentially took down a thorn, 03:47:03.600 --> 03:47:06.160 and that is what looking like it's going to hurt both. 03:47:06.160 --> 03:47:07.920 But he immediately finds Yamzo and Josh 03:47:07.920 --> 03:47:09.280 and goes for the fight. 03:47:09.280 --> 03:47:12.360 That is a must fight for Bolts. 03:47:12.360 --> 03:47:15.640 This is big though for Skye and Skrull. 03:47:15.640 --> 03:47:17.280 For not only trying to play catch up 03:47:17.280 --> 03:47:20.640 for the first place position, but darn Dynish. 03:47:20.640 --> 03:47:21.960 At least for looking last off, 03:47:21.960 --> 03:47:23.320 a little bit under the rest of year. 03:47:23.320 --> 03:47:27.240 Skye and Skrull will find that elimination onto Bolts. 03:47:27.240 --> 03:47:28.120 Some big opening shots, 03:47:28.120 --> 03:47:29.960 but it's still just barely keeping them 03:47:29.960 --> 03:47:31.400 above the serve threshold. 03:47:31.400 --> 03:47:32.800 I'm gonna go for some personal, 03:47:32.800 --> 03:47:36.000 and unfortunately, despite their best efforts, 03:47:36.000 --> 03:47:38.800 Braxton Yanis not able to make it out 03:47:40.000 --> 03:47:46.080 Yeah, falling outside of the placement points at least they were able to get those elimination and it's not a zero point game 03:47:46.560 --> 03:47:51.640 So you can kind of keep progressing here as you see sky and scroll matter that triple contested fight 03:47:51.640 --> 03:47:56.720 And they are playing it perfect or as perfect as one can in a situation like that 03:47:56.720 --> 03:48:01.560 I was kind of giving credit to even Darwin Demish here, but Demish is now stuck by himself still 03:48:01.560 --> 03:48:08.560 He's no compete above the damage threshold and he's increasing that even more 120 right before he rotates in 03:48:08.560 --> 03:48:14.560 because he knows just like anybody else, if you gotta rotate that far especially with a shot, it is gonna come with a tone brisk 03:48:14.560 --> 03:48:17.560 and he is playing this rotation perfect to not take a single scratch. 03:48:17.560 --> 03:48:26.560 Hey, Demish needed that, but looking in now, sky and scroll, they're never gonna get the chance to get even make it into the next zone 03:48:26.560 --> 03:48:32.320 immediately picked off by the lobby focus as part of the dangers involved when 03:48:32.320 --> 03:48:36.500 you are tanking up some of those early stormtakes you're opening into a poor 03:48:36.500 --> 03:48:40.780 position but other teams already based up already looking back ready to shut you 03:48:40.780 --> 03:48:46.940 down a spizzy big seat they are so neck-and-neck with cringe and twi on the 03:48:46.940 --> 03:48:51.980 leaderboard this could be the gap between who decides coming out of 03:48:51.980 --> 03:48:55.300 this box fight yeah I want to say Garmin Dean is though overall kind of 03:48:55.300 --> 03:48:59.220 looking at that leaderboard kind of see second place, third place already out. 03:48:59.220 --> 03:49:02.900 There's about a 52 point gap between first and fourth. 03:49:02.900 --> 03:49:06.060 But remember, Darman Deems, they're stuck as a solo, 03:49:06.060 --> 03:49:08.500 one of them already eliminated out of this lobby. 03:49:08.500 --> 03:49:12.900 So we really have our eyes on the team like Swizzy and Pixie at 132 points 03:49:12.900 --> 03:49:14.980 to try and close the gap. 03:49:14.980 --> 03:49:17.940 Place two points haven't even set in, so this is just the elimination 03:49:17.940 --> 03:49:19.300 credit all around the lobby. 03:49:19.300 --> 03:49:24.220 And it doesn't help when you see Pixie just beating away at Pink and Roura. 03:49:24.220 --> 03:49:34.220 I believe they got credit for at least that ULM onto Pink Ruror taken out by other teams elsewhere, but Pablo, Gino, that offspun. 03:49:34.220 --> 03:49:40.220 This is the moment that they can look to continue trying to convert that into some solid placement points. 03:49:40.220 --> 03:49:47.220 Creeping their way off the leaderboard, still definitely fighting it out for those top 10 positionings. 03:49:47.220 --> 03:49:50.700 Yeah, you kind of see below the damage threshold, 03:49:50.700 --> 03:49:53.780 they find rise and mud trying to rotate, lay in. 03:49:53.780 --> 03:49:57.260 They do get the elimination, but most importantly, that surge. 03:49:57.260 --> 03:50:01.340 But we look on high ground, it's Klicks and Rapid. 03:50:01.340 --> 03:50:05.220 We have seen a similar situation in some of our earlier games. 03:50:05.220 --> 03:50:07.620 And honestly, Taco, it was Coyota and Yuma 03:50:07.620 --> 03:50:08.980 that they needed to watch out for. 03:50:08.980 --> 03:50:11.380 Yuma and Coyota are in the feed already taken down, 03:50:11.380 --> 03:50:13.380 Gino, so you know they're at least busy. 03:50:13.380 --> 03:50:15.540 Yeah, but at the same time, Klicks, Rapid, 03:50:15.540 --> 03:50:16.980 we know they like to play for hype, 03:50:16.980 --> 03:50:19.660 but there are so many other heavy hitters in this lobby 03:50:19.660 --> 03:50:21.700 with the same sort of mentality. 03:50:21.700 --> 03:50:23.780 That's the one thing that makes me nervous 03:50:23.780 --> 03:50:25.200 seeing this high ground position 03:50:25.200 --> 03:50:26.900 currently out of the flicks and rapid. 03:50:26.900 --> 03:50:28.620 You have to be very proactive 03:50:28.620 --> 03:50:31.580 with controlling the flow of the lobby suppressing teams 03:50:31.580 --> 03:50:34.260 from having the ability to try and challenge you on height. 03:50:34.260 --> 03:50:37.100 And for Yuma, Koyota, this was the moment. 03:50:37.100 --> 03:50:39.180 Chino and Pablo are actually gonna be 03:50:39.180 --> 03:50:41.580 at the forefront of that pressure from those two. 03:50:41.580 --> 03:50:44.060 You got me scratching, kind of wiping my eye. 03:50:44.060 --> 03:50:45.540 Did I see that right? 03:50:45.540 --> 03:50:49.900 1,400 damage above the threshold. 03:50:49.900 --> 03:50:52.020 I don't know what these guys ate today, 03:50:52.020 --> 03:50:55.020 but they have came to play. 03:50:55.020 --> 03:50:57.460 That's one thing they don't have to worry about here 03:50:57.460 --> 03:50:59.100 is Pombo has to worry about a lot. 03:50:59.100 --> 03:51:00.380 He is by himself. 03:51:00.380 --> 03:51:03.020 And remember, Taco, that 50 plus point gap 03:51:03.020 --> 03:51:06.140 is him that has to try to close it. 03:51:06.140 --> 03:51:08.500 But look at the teams that are separating first 03:51:08.500 --> 03:51:11.220 through 15, even though big take down. 03:51:11.220 --> 03:51:13.020 Onto the focus, the high ground 03:51:13.020 --> 03:51:18.180 already gone for a really big shake-up here. Sharp and Teenie clearly in the 03:51:18.180 --> 03:51:22.700 advantageous spot. Tom is forced to drop as a solo. Won't be able to continue the 03:51:22.700 --> 03:51:26.020 conversation just yet. Still, he could look to play spoiler later on. Yeah, we 03:51:26.020 --> 03:51:30.460 definitely can. Clicks rapid. You got so many teams kind of moving up. Sharp and 03:51:30.460 --> 03:51:34.420 Teenie even conceding that one. Ray had to play by Teenie though. Looked like 03:51:34.420 --> 03:51:37.940 he was gonna at least try to save. Sharp for a moment, but Zone pulled so 03:51:37.940 --> 03:51:42.460 far away. And now we have our fourth different team here on high ground in 03:51:42.460 --> 03:51:47.500 In this game, Viko and Malabuca, the team that's looking for a back-to-back-to-backland 03:51:47.500 --> 03:51:48.500 wins. 03:51:48.500 --> 03:51:52.420 And Malabuca, Viko, they have needed this performance, Shinga. 03:51:52.420 --> 03:51:58.300 They have had a bit of a shaky time, but if they can deliver in this secondary half 03:51:58.300 --> 03:52:03.220 of the day, set themselves up in the best place possible to enter day two here, nice 03:52:03.220 --> 03:52:08.060 chop, but a good reconnect almost immediately out of Viko and Malabuca, they are refusing 03:52:08.060 --> 03:52:09.820 to budge from this high ground position. 03:52:09.820 --> 03:52:13.140 And then it's Coyote and Yuma that are feeding the nuisance out of them all. 03:52:13.140 --> 03:52:16.660 They topple down, clicks and wrap it in their game ring to go for high ground. 03:52:16.660 --> 03:52:21.860 So it seems like maybe coming into this one, Asia is looking to take that top spot. 03:52:21.860 --> 03:52:24.140 Not just the leaderboard, but the high ground as well. 03:52:24.140 --> 03:52:28.260 Peter Popton, Coyote, the first time today, we're actually seeing them in this end game. 03:52:28.260 --> 03:52:32.780 And it's bringing life to not only them, but Pete Nation all around along with Coyote. 03:52:32.780 --> 03:52:35.260 They find elimination, a little bit of blue. 03:52:35.260 --> 03:52:38.060 It may not be a time, but at least it's something for them to work with. 03:52:38.060 --> 03:52:40.420 Belly's benefit from the damage the fishy had done. 03:52:40.420 --> 03:52:42.060 They needed every bit of material. 03:52:42.060 --> 03:52:43.540 They could factor in years. 03:52:43.540 --> 03:52:47.460 Now, Peterbot looking to try and carry them forward. 03:52:47.460 --> 03:52:50.660 Every little bit of placement is making a big difference 03:52:50.660 --> 03:52:52.580 in their scorecard here today. 03:52:52.580 --> 03:52:54.660 But can Pete do it yet again? 03:52:54.660 --> 03:52:56.940 You see him time and time, delivering 03:52:56.940 --> 03:52:58.140 in these crucial moments. 03:52:58.140 --> 03:53:00.460 How do you just won't get the chance, the lobby pressure, 03:53:00.460 --> 03:53:02.580 too steep to deal with, and now Cole 03:53:02.580 --> 03:53:04.860 trying to take the reins here, solo position. 03:53:04.860 --> 03:53:05.860 Yeah, that's the first time. 03:53:05.860 --> 03:53:08.140 really staying cold in the endgame as well. 03:53:08.140 --> 03:53:11.940 Finally at a fast woken up, a Peterbock does go down, 03:53:11.940 --> 03:53:14.180 brand new GRS, one of our game winners, 03:53:14.180 --> 03:53:16.060 following as well the chat by himself. 03:53:16.060 --> 03:53:17.740 He has two different men kits, 03:53:17.740 --> 03:53:19.500 more than half left on the chug jug, 03:53:19.500 --> 03:53:21.860 the mythic AR that is burning through the box 03:53:21.860 --> 03:53:23.460 on the cold, but he fights back, 03:53:23.460 --> 03:53:25.300 getting into back down just a little bit, 03:53:25.300 --> 03:53:27.260 but cold and forced outside of the zone, 03:53:27.260 --> 03:53:28.540 and so he goes back in, 03:53:28.540 --> 03:53:30.300 tries to get the elimination on the clicks, 03:53:30.300 --> 03:53:31.340 but falls short. 03:53:31.340 --> 03:53:33.580 A tip of short, and they pick three every time, 03:53:33.580 --> 03:53:35.220 for Yoda and Yuva. 03:53:35.220 --> 03:53:39.980 These guys are looking unstoppable, girly, Coyota with another onto Ozone. 03:53:39.980 --> 03:53:42.680 Six eliminations already, 10 in total. 03:53:42.680 --> 03:53:44.840 They have already factored in. 03:53:44.840 --> 03:53:47.800 Big placements here, but can they bring down Biko and Malibuca? 03:53:47.800 --> 03:53:49.920 We might have a new first place team after this. 03:53:49.920 --> 03:53:52.800 Coyota and Yuma firing shots, trading back and forth. 03:53:52.800 --> 03:53:54.440 Then I put the bones down, though. 03:53:54.440 --> 03:53:59.840 Coyota and Yuma, it goes down to a 41, 10 HP, and a 3. 03:53:59.840 --> 03:54:03.440 Coyota and Yuma, they're first team this weekend. 03:54:03.440 --> 03:54:06.400 It's about two degree lawyers! 03:54:06.400 --> 03:54:07.640 What is happening?

I mean listen 03:59:41.680 --> 03:59:46.360 Koyota definitely put himself on the map as far as lands concerned years ago we 03:59:46.360 --> 03:59:50.920 saw him popping off all the way back I think in like 2024 maybe 2023 but to 03:59:50.920 --> 03:59:56.280 see him still do that. I think it's not so much of a surprise, but to get two wins, 03:59:56.280 --> 04:00:01.080 Mini Miner, I mean, that is absolutely incredible. They obviously have had a pretty good year so far 04:00:01.080 --> 04:00:05.240 in the region as well. Absolutely fantastic. We're all celebrating first Asia win here at 04:00:05.240 --> 04:00:09.720 FNCS Global Championships. Let me go ahead and do it again. Hang on a sec. That translator is 04:00:09.720 --> 04:00:14.520 working overtime today. This is fantastic gameplay from these guys. Fantastic ways that 04:00:14.520 --> 04:00:18.200 are actually fragging out here as well. A lot of times when you think about smaller regions, 04:00:18.200 --> 04:00:20.240 You also think about a little bit more passive gameplay. 04:00:20.240 --> 04:00:24.360 You don't see them as teams that are going to be pretty forces to be reckoned with in the lobby, 04:00:24.360 --> 04:00:29.040 but this is a team that completely flips the script on that particular engagement 04:00:29.040 --> 04:00:32.200 and that particular game right there because we just saw them actually frag out, Kelly. 04:00:32.200 --> 04:00:33.960 This mid-ground play is so smart. 04:00:33.960 --> 04:00:36.840 You can see how low they're consistently with those builds 04:00:36.840 --> 04:00:38.360 because they're kind of running that mid-ground, 04:00:38.360 --> 04:00:40.440 but they're able to get so many refreshments back-to-back 04:00:40.440 --> 04:00:42.040 that it doesn't matter if they don't have any build 04:00:42.040 --> 04:00:43.720 because they're just going to get it again. 04:00:43.720 --> 04:00:45.160 Coyote here with a final moment. 04:00:45.160 --> 04:00:48.600 going up against Vigo, one of the best players in the world. 04:00:48.600 --> 04:00:50.520 You know that they're working on that high, 04:00:50.520 --> 04:00:52.360 and they're continuing this momentum 04:00:52.360 --> 04:00:54.280 out for the rest of the weekend. 04:00:54.280 --> 04:00:56.440 And you can see that, their hypes, they're excited. 04:00:56.440 --> 04:00:57.720 First time winning on land. 04:00:57.720 --> 04:00:59.480 A lot of that adrenaline can really get to you, 04:00:59.480 --> 04:01:02.360 but the way that Coyote played that final little moment 04:01:02.360 --> 04:01:05.240 right there against Vigo just oozes confidence, 04:01:05.240 --> 04:01:09.080 oozes that, just ability to keep calm under pressure. 04:01:09.080 --> 04:01:12.440 And that's so, so valuable on this stage, 04:01:12.440 --> 04:01:14.600 because that can carry you through the games. 04:01:14.600 --> 04:01:18.240 that little bits and little 04:01:18.240 --> 04:01:19.280 hints of momentum can be really 04:01:19.280 --> 04:01:19.880 good. If you can keep that 04:01:19.880 --> 04:01:21.280 consistency and that calmness 04:01:21.280 --> 04:01:22.680 throughout the whole day, you're 04:01:22.680 --> 04:01:23.680 looking really good. I mean, 04:01:23.680 --> 04:01:24.680 even at the start of the day, 04:01:24.680 --> 04:01:25.680 they look like they were 04:01:25.680 --> 04:01:26.480 having fun. They were having 04:01:26.480 --> 04:01:27.080 hype when we were doing these 04:01:27.080 --> 04:01:28.880 player walkouts. Everyone's so 04:01:28.880 --> 04:01:30.480 serious of what's smiling and 04:01:30.480 --> 04:01:31.960 waving and everything. And now 04:01:31.960 --> 04:01:33.320 you kind of wonder maybe just 04:01:33.320 --> 04:01:34.920 coming into that with like 04:01:34.920 --> 04:01:36.160 that mentality coming into land 04:01:36.160 --> 04:01:37.160 just be like, you have to 04:01:37.160 --> 04:01:38.160 see your place in fortnight 04:01:38.160 --> 04:01:39.560 and that is all you have to 04:01:39.560 --> 04:01:40.760 worry about. I mean, it 04:01:40.760 --> 04:01:42.200 seems to be working out for 04:01:42.200 --> 04:01:44.200 them so far. Oh my gosh. 04:01:44.200 --> 04:01:57.200 I think we have to celebrate with them at some point when we get back on camera. Kelly. I think it only makes the most sense that we do the dance that I'm going to do it. They give me the camera and they cut to the ISO shot. I'm going to do that dance. 04:01:57.200 --> 04:02:08.200 Okay. Hold on. Way production. Get ready. Give me that camera right there. That camera right there. Boom. Yes. Yes. They won. That's right. Koyote Yuma. That's for you. Love you guys. 04:02:08.200 --> 04:02:18.920 Shoutouts to the duo again the first time we've seen a victory royale on from Asia in a land setting let alone two let alone a 12 elimination 04:02:19.560 --> 04:02:22.820 What an incredible moment for fortnight now obviously in the last game 04:02:22.820 --> 04:02:28.960 We did see them go up against Viko and Malibuca a duo who's trying to hit the treble 04:02:28.960 --> 04:02:33.240 Which means they get a third land with oh my gosh, I can see yeah 04:02:33.240 --> 04:02:34.640 Yeah, who's he looking at? 04:02:34.640 --> 04:02:37.320 And what's crazy is that's the Vico I'm used to seeing, 04:02:37.320 --> 04:02:40.320 Mini Miner, that's the very animated Vico. 04:02:40.320 --> 04:02:41.760 And that's a scary Vico as well. 04:02:41.760 --> 04:02:43.600 When he's vibing, I was speaking to him a lot 04:02:43.600 --> 04:02:44.680 when we were at the summit as well, 04:02:44.680 --> 04:02:46.160 and he was saying in between games, 04:02:46.160 --> 04:02:47.280 and when he's in these sort of moments 04:02:47.280 --> 04:02:48.680 where maybe things aren't going his way, 04:02:48.680 --> 04:02:50.240 he likes to sing, he likes to dance, 04:02:50.240 --> 04:02:51.680 he likes to stay calm in that way, 04:02:51.680 --> 04:02:53.480 he likes to sort of exude all of that energy 04:02:53.480 --> 04:02:55.200 before he actually gets into the game. 04:02:55.200 --> 04:02:56.800 And when he's chilling, when he's happy, 04:02:56.800 --> 04:02:59.560 when he's vibing, he is next level. 04:02:59.560 --> 04:03:01.160 Pretty unfortunate right there though, Kelly. 04:03:01.160 --> 04:03:05.720 I think it was an unfortunate overdrive, but I think Malibu got sent into the storm which 04:03:05.720 --> 04:03:10.360 pulls them a few issues then getting back together very unlike them because we're used 04:03:10.360 --> 04:03:13.800 to seeing them so cohesive, but they can still build off of that as well. 04:03:13.800 --> 04:03:18.200 I will say though, finally someone kind of able to bully and steal height away. 04:03:18.200 --> 04:03:21.000 I feel like that we've seen in the first three games that once a team is kind of 04:03:21.000 --> 04:03:23.400 able to claim height, they're just kind of sticking up there. 04:03:23.400 --> 04:03:26.800 Not too many people looking up, Klicks and Rapid did a great height take there 04:03:26.800 --> 04:03:30.480 and a little bit of early height take like we know that they love to do. 04:03:30.480 --> 04:03:35.120 I do want to give credit Viko Malibu a very clean height steal and also credit to Klitz and Rapid 04:03:35.120 --> 04:03:39.840 They were able to disengage pretty well, too. I love that. I mean look again Viko Malibu good 04:03:39.840 --> 04:03:47.420 They're trying to get a third hand win to make it a treble and what I love is this is coming off of the back of that break 04:03:47.420 --> 04:03:53.520 They've had time to kind of go what were those first three games like how can we come back stronger in the latter half of this and 04:03:53.880 --> 04:03:57.600 We also have six games tomorrow. So this could be the trajectory 04:03:57.600 --> 04:04:00.300 the reset we needed for the duo. 04:04:00.300 --> 04:04:01.500 And that could easily be it. 04:04:01.500 --> 04:04:03.200 And I mean, we've already seen them kind of, 04:04:03.200 --> 04:04:04.460 I don't want to say necessarily struggle, 04:04:04.460 --> 04:04:06.600 but Higgs and Curve obviously had a really good game one, 04:04:06.600 --> 04:04:07.800 and that is the team that we thought, 04:04:07.800 --> 04:04:09.040 oh, is this the team that's going to be going up 04:04:09.040 --> 04:04:10.200 against Viko and Malibuca? 04:04:10.200 --> 04:04:12.280 And they didn't necessarily have a great game one. 04:04:12.280 --> 04:04:13.640 So you got to wonder, was there necessarily 04:04:13.640 --> 04:04:14.800 an interaction there that kind of 04:04:14.800 --> 04:04:16.320 threw a wrench into their plans? 04:04:16.320 --> 04:04:17.780 And how were they able to recover? 04:04:17.780 --> 04:04:19.080 Because it does, like you're saying, 04:04:19.080 --> 04:04:20.020 we've seen the steamroll, 04:04:20.020 --> 04:04:21.920 we're seeing the Viko and Malibuca that we all know. 04:04:21.920 --> 04:04:24.120 Well, remember at Summit, they didn't actually win a game. 04:04:24.120 --> 04:04:26.480 They were that team that was consistently making end games. 04:04:26.480 --> 04:04:30.080 a lot of people going into the summit weren't like, oh yeah, this is definitely the sure fire team to win. 04:04:30.080 --> 04:04:33.880 They just kept keeping consistent games and that's all they need to do this weekend as well. 04:04:34.880 --> 04:04:39.280 I, uh, yeah, dude, at the moment, we like, if we had, if this happened to get for Vika Malbuka, 04:04:39.280 --> 04:04:41.880 let me cut the Vika and we just see one of these, right? 04:04:41.880 --> 04:04:46.580 I'm doing one of these and now he kind of just looking like, uh, it's my duo, you know, that's how I know. 04:04:46.580 --> 04:04:51.580 Okay, we're on, we're live, we're ready to crush some more duos. 04:04:51.580 --> 04:04:54.880 Oh my gosh, I am just so excited. 04:04:54.880 --> 04:04:56.880 But guys, I'm getting word. 04:04:56.880 --> 04:04:58.460 I want to talk more, but game is ready. 04:04:58.460 --> 04:05:01.960 We're jumping right back into the action. 04:05:01.960 --> 04:05:04.640 Look, we're checking out the leaderboard. 04:05:04.640 --> 04:05:07.520 First place, Yuma and Coyota. 04:05:07.520 --> 04:05:10.440 Second place, Darm and Demish. 04:05:10.440 --> 04:05:12.360 You know who coaches those two teams? 04:05:12.360 --> 04:05:13.200 Spen. 04:05:13.200 --> 04:05:14.680 He's been cooked yet. 04:05:14.680 --> 04:05:17.160 Let's see what game five has in store for us right now. 04:05:24.880 --> 04:05:36.480 That is one thing that he's cooking up. I don't know if there's ever been somebody 04:05:36.480 --> 04:05:41.320 to coach a team to a first in second place. I could be wrong, but this could be a time 04:05:41.320 --> 04:05:47.200 not only is history made for coaches, but the entire region of Asia as well. And you 04:05:47.200 --> 04:05:52.600 take a flashback. Remember, EWC, the survival stage, they went back to back games to 04:05:52.600 --> 04:05:56.640 end the day and miss out by just a few points. 04:05:56.640 --> 04:05:58.240 That was heartbreak at its finest. 04:05:58.240 --> 04:06:02.240 They come in here and after four games they're in first place. 04:06:02.240 --> 04:06:04.880 But this is where it becomes absolutely critical 04:06:04.880 --> 04:06:07.040 that you don't lose yourself in the moment. 04:06:07.040 --> 04:06:09.880 Right now though, it's all about Pablo and Chino. 04:06:09.880 --> 04:06:13.080 Can they deliver yet another off-squand win? 04:06:13.080 --> 04:06:16.160 Mac D'Yeta looking to try and give a little bit of a punch 04:06:16.160 --> 04:06:18.960 back here, but Chino, Pablo, despite being incredibly weak, 04:06:18.960 --> 04:06:21.800 D'Yeta finding himself in a very similar position. 04:06:21.800 --> 04:06:23.900 He'll opt to play for the Mekki at that point, 04:06:23.900 --> 04:06:25.740 leaving him as an open threat. 04:06:25.740 --> 04:06:27.820 Yeah, this is one of the more drawn out fights 04:06:27.820 --> 04:06:30.140 that we have seen at the Stone Sanctum. 04:06:30.140 --> 04:06:32.980 And we haven't seen it yet with eight corner bolts 04:06:32.980 --> 04:06:34.420 trying to rotate over. 04:06:34.420 --> 04:06:37.460 They take a whole split on the western side of the POI 04:06:37.460 --> 04:06:39.980 and it kind of takes them down far away from the fight. 04:06:39.980 --> 04:06:42.380 But if this one continues to drag out, 04:06:42.380 --> 04:06:43.860 that can give them more than enough time 04:06:43.860 --> 04:06:46.820 to get that full load out and go straight in. 04:06:46.820 --> 04:06:47.980 He's going out of the vehicle though. 04:06:47.980 --> 04:06:50.420 They seem like they are hustling currently over 04:06:50.420 --> 04:06:51.100 at Lifty Lodge. 04:06:51.100 --> 04:06:54.200 They've clearly got intentions to try and get scrappy elsewhere 04:06:54.200 --> 04:06:55.060 on the map. 04:06:55.060 --> 04:06:58.700 That last lobby really lighting a fire underneath them 04:06:58.700 --> 04:07:03.140 to try and see if they can carry through some of this energy 04:07:03.140 --> 04:07:05.900 for a very solid closure to day one. 04:07:05.900 --> 04:07:07.380 And going back to that initial message, 04:07:07.380 --> 04:07:09.580 I'll send a sort of break for life. 04:07:09.580 --> 04:07:11.220 You don't want to lose yourself in the moment 04:07:11.220 --> 04:07:13.060 because you don't want to find yourself 04:07:13.060 --> 04:07:15.340 starting to autopilot the brain thinking about, 04:07:15.340 --> 04:07:16.820 oh my gosh, we're in first place. 04:07:16.820 --> 04:07:19.140 You still have a whole secondary day to work through. 04:07:19.140 --> 04:07:22.220 Yep, agree with that one 100%. 04:07:22.220 --> 04:07:25.820 Can't let your foot off the gas at any one of these moments. 04:07:25.820 --> 04:07:28.060 And this is them at the Cluster Coast, 04:07:28.060 --> 04:07:31.220 and they get one of the legendary POIs as well. 04:07:31.220 --> 04:07:34.020 Up's the chance for you to get one of those rare chests, 04:07:34.020 --> 04:07:36.380 kind of get a little bit more loot out of that. 04:07:36.380 --> 04:07:38.300 You can kind of see they also have the golden apple, 04:07:38.300 --> 04:07:40.340 the birthday cake that is nearby, 04:07:40.340 --> 04:07:42.820 but they also have Sato and Momzie. 04:07:42.820 --> 04:07:45.260 And you gotta wonder who actually has the vault card 04:07:45.260 --> 04:07:48.180 underneath because it could very well be Sato and Momzie. 04:07:48.180 --> 04:07:50.580 Hey, we saw an El Brugandica, though, just moments ago, 04:07:50.580 --> 04:07:51.540 being quick on their feet. 04:07:51.540 --> 04:07:53.420 This is the reason why they wanted 04:07:53.420 --> 04:07:55.820 to get active against the likes of Epic Whale 04:07:55.820 --> 04:07:59.420 and pump a great little early elimination there 04:07:59.420 --> 04:08:01.980 to kind of keep that momentum rolling forward, 04:08:01.980 --> 04:08:05.540 sky scroll, also looking outwards from the outer range. 04:08:05.540 --> 04:08:07.700 Apparently, it seems that it's a clear 1v1. 04:08:07.700 --> 04:08:12.540 And talking about these duo situations, those 50-50s, 04:08:12.540 --> 04:08:16.580 Coyota and Yuma, their success has come exclusively 04:08:16.580 --> 04:08:18.660 at the expense of Monty and Sato. 04:08:18.660 --> 04:08:21.140 Yeah, and immediately going out again. 04:08:21.140 --> 04:08:24.460 They just have like a new whole strategy going into this one. 04:08:24.460 --> 04:08:26.820 They're playing high, getting full aggressive. 04:08:26.820 --> 04:08:29.340 I think they realize their skill is there. 04:08:29.340 --> 04:08:31.220 We've seen Kayota in the practice room 04:08:31.220 --> 04:08:32.900 go up against the best of the best 04:08:32.900 --> 04:08:34.460 and actually come out on top. 04:08:34.460 --> 04:08:36.820 When it comes to VR, I think maybe they played 04:08:36.820 --> 04:08:38.420 a little bit scared in the past, 04:08:38.420 --> 04:08:41.420 but we are seeing a whole new version 04:08:41.420 --> 04:08:43.820 of this team coming out from Asia. 04:08:43.820 --> 04:08:47.160 We call them the under-skidded class for a reason. 04:08:47.160 --> 04:08:50.500 For Monzy and Ceddo, though, respect to these two. 04:08:50.500 --> 04:08:55.100 We're still willing to stick it out no matter how grim things 04:08:55.100 --> 04:08:57.700 might seem after these opening four lobbies. 04:08:57.700 --> 04:08:59.660 The fifth game, that could be the turnaround. 04:08:59.660 --> 04:09:02.540 One good shake-up is all it takes. 04:09:02.540 --> 04:09:05.420 Coyota and Yuma, sure, they might be top of the leaderboard 04:09:05.420 --> 04:09:09.140 right now, but if they get even one early departure, 04:09:09.140 --> 04:09:13.220 that's all the rest of the lobby needs to play catch up. 04:09:13.220 --> 04:09:15.420 I say that might not even necessarily be a problem, 04:09:15.420 --> 04:09:18.660 but as I'm thinking that you see coming in 04:09:18.660 --> 04:09:20.620 from the north side of clustercoast, 04:09:20.620 --> 04:09:23.700 there's a whole another team, Khaled and 27, 04:09:23.700 --> 04:09:26.660 and they're a team that probably has been taking note 04:09:26.660 --> 04:09:28.300 of what's going down at clustercoast, 04:09:28.300 --> 04:09:30.620 they've probably seen the fight ending very, very quickly. 04:09:30.620 --> 04:09:32.100 And then in this game, they realize, 04:09:32.100 --> 04:09:35.380 hey, no eliminations, no knock, perfect time to work, 04:09:35.380 --> 04:09:37.660 and they couch out mom's not a lot of damage though. 04:09:37.660 --> 04:09:39.260 So let's say for mom's, you have to chance 04:09:39.260 --> 04:09:41.860 to try to run away, reach Sado, get boxed, 04:09:41.860 --> 04:09:47.260 Even say though is weak luckily though he does fire shot through the window to slow down them 04:09:47.260 --> 04:09:54.780 But the unpredictability that 27 and Gallant have now brought with them to cluster coast the attempt at the third party 04:09:54.780 --> 04:10:02.220 It's just fizzling out and for you for coyota. They're actually the ones continuing to directly benefit that is unless 04:10:02.740 --> 04:10:08.140 27 and Gallant can begin applying a little bit of steady pressure and bring some shots here and there 04:10:08.140 --> 04:10:12.900 But the surge, I think, is already pretty heavily in Coyota and Yuma's favor. 04:10:12.900 --> 04:10:16.460 They could take this fight, but they might not need to risk it whatsoever. 04:10:16.460 --> 04:10:22.700 They're just gonna kind of let Gallad in 27 dictate the retreat here. 04:10:22.700 --> 04:10:29.100 And for Seino and Momzi, you can't even be relieved because look at where it's left them. 04:10:29.100 --> 04:10:33.900 No materials, having to use up the last bits of their gold on what remains in these machine, 04:10:33.900 --> 04:10:39.900 and it's just so problematic because you still have to deal with Coyota and Yuba eventually. 04:10:39.900 --> 04:10:44.900 Yeah, that's right. Coyota and Yuba disengaged. They found a golden fishing spot as well. 04:10:44.900 --> 04:10:48.900 So that's definitely going to help them out. Peterbot and Coyote, we saw that switch up in the last game, 04:10:48.900 --> 04:10:54.900 whether they left Reality Rain earlier, just didn't land there at all. They're back in this similar position. 04:10:54.900 --> 04:10:59.900 And that last game was the first time we've seen them today make it into the end game. 04:10:59.900 --> 04:11:03.940 of strategy almost remind you of the Peterbott ritual and called triple 04:11:03.940 --> 04:11:07.940 contested global championship of last year they had a comeback in day two but 04:11:07.940 --> 04:11:12.020 it was far too late so I think they're just changing the page here rewriting 04:11:12.020 --> 04:11:15.620 the script saying hey we have to do it today if we want any chance at first but 04:11:15.620 --> 04:11:21.060 with the way that shark and teeny are already set up it just seems like they 04:11:21.060 --> 04:11:25.300 were fully aware of the fact that someone would eventually be trying to 04:11:25.300 --> 04:11:29.300 challenge them early on whether they expected it to be the employer to 04:11:29.300 --> 04:11:47.300 believe that that was the case just off of what was kind of running around in the practice room all week long, but more importantly still, it's just going to measure up everyone's ability to adapt to every single one of these lobbies, because teams are starting to get very experimental on these closing matches of the day. 04:11:47.300 --> 04:11:54.300 Especially ones that may have been on a high early on in the tournament slowly, but surely have start to fall a little bit flat. 04:11:54.300 --> 04:11:55.460 They're still two games. 04:11:55.460 --> 04:11:57.660 That's plenty of time to pick up some points. 04:11:57.660 --> 04:11:59.260 Maybe not necessarily take first, 04:11:59.260 --> 04:12:01.500 close the gap to tomorrow is a brand new day 04:12:01.500 --> 04:12:02.940 and a brand new opportunity, 04:12:02.940 --> 04:12:06.500 but you're essentially three teams locked down here. 04:12:06.500 --> 04:12:07.340 Two and a half, 04:12:07.340 --> 04:12:09.100 because King is gonna be by himself. 04:12:09.100 --> 04:12:10.940 Doesn't have a ton of HP here. 04:12:10.940 --> 04:12:13.060 And he's only 11 above the damage threshold. 04:12:13.060 --> 04:12:14.780 And I think that's where the mental games come in 04:12:14.780 --> 04:12:16.580 for him as a solo. 04:12:16.580 --> 04:12:19.020 Problem though for King is where do you go next? 04:12:19.020 --> 04:12:22.740 A little bit too far to the east. 04:12:22.740 --> 04:12:25.220 It's spotted out, there it is. 04:12:25.220 --> 04:12:27.860 It's just not really a whole lot of little room for him. 04:12:27.860 --> 04:12:30.500 And as a solo, I was trying not to get caught out, 04:12:30.500 --> 04:12:36.140 but Rax and Yannis, they're trying to see whether or not 04:12:36.140 --> 04:12:39.300 they'll be able to bring things back with a bit of ups 04:12:39.300 --> 04:12:40.460 and downs. 04:12:40.460 --> 04:12:43.780 Everyone calm also, sharing a very similar instance, 04:12:43.780 --> 04:12:48.820 especially after we saw that early elimination. 04:12:48.820 --> 04:12:50.900 But if you've got Malibuca, they've already left. 04:12:50.900 --> 04:12:56.900 Again, I gotta imagine the reboot is what drew over Rax and Yanis' attention over towards this side of the map. 04:12:56.900 --> 04:13:00.900 Both teams above the damage threshold here. 04:13:00.900 --> 04:13:05.900 I just don't think Rax and Yanis thought they were gonna run into this much trouble. 04:13:05.900 --> 04:13:09.900 Epic Well and Pump do have a little bit of loot, but you can kinda see them both from the HP. 04:13:09.900 --> 04:13:12.900 The extra HP is what both teams are lacking. 04:13:12.900 --> 04:13:16.900 Even more so for Epic Well and Pump, they lack a ton of materials as well. 04:13:16.900 --> 04:13:40.420 This is absolutely worst case scenario right now for Epic Whale and Pomp and Rex. 04:13:40.420 --> 04:13:44.420 He is just steamrolling his way back over to where Epic Whale is trying to create a 04:13:44.420 --> 04:13:48.580 a little bit of separation. He's gonna at least send Rax and Yannis on a little bit of a chase here, 04:13:48.580 --> 04:13:52.500 but I don't know how long can he reasonably try to delay the two. He didn't have any 04:13:52.500 --> 04:13:58.340 lights last week checked in his inventory, so this is only going to go the way of Rax and Yannis. 04:13:58.340 --> 04:14:02.580 It's just a matter of time before these shots connect and Rax sure enough will seal the deal on that one. 04:14:03.700 --> 04:14:08.340 I'm fortunate for Hedvick and Fon. Kind of getting put on the spin cycle there for a moment. 04:14:08.340 --> 04:14:12.100 Thinking things were looking good. They were above the damage, so I thought, okay, 04:14:12.100 --> 04:14:16.460 They had med kids, bandages, anything I felt like that would have played up just a little 04:14:16.460 --> 04:14:17.460 bit differently. 04:14:17.460 --> 04:14:21.380 But you got to give it up to Yanis and Rags falling below the damage threshold, how weak 04:14:21.380 --> 04:14:22.380 they actually were. 04:14:22.380 --> 04:14:26.660 They continued to fight and they got both of those eliminations all along the way. 04:14:26.660 --> 04:14:29.860 That's what you call kind of picking up the pace, especially what happened last 04:14:29.860 --> 04:14:30.860 game. 04:14:30.860 --> 04:14:35.820 Without a doubt, but very different scenes currently for Dmish and Darm already inside 04:14:35.820 --> 04:14:36.820 of the zone. 04:14:36.820 --> 04:14:42.020 Have a little bit of elevation inside of their base and Darm, Dmish, the ability to 04:14:42.020 --> 04:14:46.660 look out and kind of gauge where the rest of the lobby is going to start trickling in from. 04:14:46.660 --> 04:14:51.860 Acorn and bolts. So looking to see whether or not they can get the better of the exchange. 04:14:52.900 --> 04:15:00.020 Fully wearing. Where's building up elsewhere? Cold and ritual. Actually eliminating sky. 04:15:00.020 --> 04:15:05.860 That is a big blow to a top five meter board. Yeah, especially without well sky and scroll. 04:15:05.860 --> 04:15:09.380 We're doing at what started as a triple contested drop. But honestly, 04:15:09.380 --> 04:15:11.620 I'm not too frightened. 04:15:11.620 --> 04:15:13.700 You know, you cast a heal region. 04:15:13.700 --> 04:15:16.780 Sky and sprawl sometimes just take turns solo-clutching. 04:15:16.780 --> 04:15:19.500 We actually saw it at the last submit land. 04:15:19.500 --> 04:15:22.220 Most of their points came from various different 04:15:22.220 --> 04:15:23.740 solo plays throughout it all. 04:15:23.740 --> 04:15:26.180 So I see sprawl knows how to play this one perfectly, 04:15:26.180 --> 04:15:28.100 especially since it is relatively early. 04:15:28.100 --> 04:15:30.740 Still one ticket damage per second inside of the zone. 04:15:30.740 --> 04:15:32.540 The only real worry I have is the naked. 04:15:32.540 --> 04:15:34.900 You see it, a huge lack of overall materials, 04:15:34.900 --> 04:15:37.220 picking up a chug jug, but there's only 30 on it. 04:15:37.220 --> 04:15:39.260 So he is gonna get Sky back in the game, 04:15:39.260 --> 04:15:41.740 But where is there a boot going to come from is the bigger question. 04:15:41.740 --> 04:15:46.540 And the bigger issue stemming out for me right now is that even if Sprawl is able to get that reboot off, 04:15:46.540 --> 04:15:49.260 how many teams are also looking to take up this frontage? 04:15:49.260 --> 04:15:53.340 How many teams are looking to play for those dead side rotations? 04:15:53.340 --> 04:15:57.900 Do you think that you're heading to an open area and it might start off that way, 04:15:57.900 --> 04:16:00.460 but by the time you actually make it back towards zone, 04:16:01.180 --> 04:16:03.180 teams that are already much healthier, 04:16:03.180 --> 04:16:06.940 if already had success with their Osbum fights or just finding eliminations along the way, 04:16:06.940 --> 04:16:11.940 They could definitely punish guy and scroll after the fact. 04:16:11.940 --> 04:16:14.940 Well, I got to say, at least there's not too many players nearby, 04:16:14.940 --> 04:16:17.940 but then they will and Romero in the distance. 04:16:17.940 --> 04:16:20.940 They're definitely going to hear this reboot about how they assess the situation 04:16:20.940 --> 04:16:24.940 and figure out if they want to kind of move over and get aggressive. 04:16:24.940 --> 04:16:27.940 We're going to get in peaks all around the map, though. 04:16:27.940 --> 04:16:29.940 Clicks of Rapid already set up. 04:16:29.940 --> 04:16:31.940 They're going to kind of walk down that base. 04:16:31.940 --> 04:16:33.940 There is a mending machine underneath, 04:16:33.940 --> 04:16:35.940 so they're not necessarily pressed for time here. 04:16:35.940 --> 04:16:40.260 It's been very impressive intentions out of Clicks and Rapid. 04:16:40.260 --> 04:16:44.700 Two separate lobbies, we have seen them make the attempt to try and lock down the high 04:16:44.700 --> 04:16:52.040 ground, but the lobby just has so many strong duos that are also looking for that same type 04:16:52.040 --> 04:16:58.020 of leverage and that's going to be something for Clicks and Rapid to essentially figure 04:16:58.020 --> 04:17:02.420 out for themselves in the moments that they need to actually close out, prevent 04:17:02.420 --> 04:17:03.620 those duos from trying to challenge them. 04:17:03.620 --> 04:17:05.820 It's just so tough because it's not just one duo. 04:17:05.820 --> 04:17:07.620 we're seeing two or three teams. 04:17:07.620 --> 04:17:10.700 We're going to take a stab at height and it's just how 04:17:10.700 --> 04:17:13.620 will Flitz and Rapid finally overcome that? 04:17:13.620 --> 04:17:14.940 Yeah, it's not just them. 04:17:14.940 --> 04:17:17.500 You've got to worry about overcoming some obstacles here. 04:17:17.500 --> 04:17:18.260 Sky and scroll. 04:17:18.260 --> 04:17:22.180 Sky is back in the game, but instantly gets knocked yet again. 04:17:22.180 --> 04:17:25.540 You kind of see there are 107 below the dam threshold. 04:17:25.540 --> 04:17:27.300 He is going to go for it once more, 04:17:27.300 --> 04:17:29.180 but it doesn't mean it's going to get any easier. 04:17:29.180 --> 04:17:33.020 And you kind of see the nine bandages, 30 on the chug chug, 04:17:33.020 --> 04:17:34.740 another team rotating in. 04:17:34.740 --> 04:17:39.740 but at least that's going to be a solo player and that's Sky and Skrull's only opportunity. 04:17:39.740 --> 04:17:46.740 You have to respect the hustle. You have to respect the grit. Sky doing everything in his power, 04:17:46.740 --> 04:17:51.740 trying to ensure that Skrull can even touch back down, but Fishy immediately looking to move the challenge. 04:17:51.740 --> 04:17:56.740 Both of these players just so incredibly weak, Sky wanting to get the chance before he heal it out, 04:17:56.740 --> 04:18:02.100 it out, search continuing to tick away, scroll 1 HP and a dream and that's going to be short 04:18:02.100 --> 04:18:07.380 and lived entirely. Fishy doesn't profit either. Zero winners out of this circumstance. 04:18:07.380 --> 04:18:13.220 Hey, that's what happens when both teams fighting are below the damage threshold and 04:18:13.220 --> 04:18:17.940 on this end in a no one situation every single time. Then you see Peter Bottenpoil in the 04:18:17.940 --> 04:18:21.860 distance, if they heard or saw any of that, they can at least pick up some food. I don't 04:18:21.860 --> 04:18:26.020 think it's going to be too game changing by any means, but depending on what they got on them, 04:18:26.020 --> 04:18:30.820 for sure. Rax and Yan is still finding that trouble. Honestly, I thought this game would be a 04:18:30.820 --> 04:18:35.460 little bit different with the zone being a little bit closer to the chop shop, but they are almost 04:18:35.460 --> 04:18:40.580 stuck in that same cycle they were in that last game, below the damage threshold, taking damage, 04:18:40.580 --> 04:18:45.300 and now separating. Rax is going to have to dig deep here. It's less about connecting the 04:18:45.300 --> 04:18:49.940 shots and more so about not drawing the attention of a healthier team altogether. 04:18:49.940 --> 04:18:53.940 Fill up, try and fall back so you can get a separate entrance. 04:18:53.940 --> 04:18:56.940 The edge of zone, but Coyota and Yuma. 04:18:56.940 --> 04:18:59.940 This could be disastrous for these two. 04:18:59.940 --> 04:19:02.940 There's only about a 30 point barrier or so between themselves 04:19:02.940 --> 04:19:06.940 and Darm Demesh currently fixated in that second place position. 04:19:06.940 --> 04:19:09.940 They don't want to have a mix up here 04:19:09.940 --> 04:19:11.940 that finds them being eliminated 04:19:11.940 --> 04:19:13.940 before the placement points can even factor in. 04:19:13.940 --> 04:19:15.940 To happen sometimes, 04:19:15.940 --> 04:19:18.940 of course disengage early out of your P.O.Y. 04:19:18.940 --> 04:19:22.220 You're 200-plus below the damage threshold. 04:19:22.220 --> 04:19:25.300 Chomp continues to fire off in your direction, 300. 04:19:25.300 --> 04:19:27.100 He finds Clixin' Rocket on the other side. 04:19:27.100 --> 04:19:30.700 Lanta's shot, but he is so far down and so far gone, 04:19:30.700 --> 04:19:32.460 it doesn't matter. 04:19:32.460 --> 04:19:36.580 He gets eliminated and first place is out of the game. 04:19:36.580 --> 04:19:38.580 But you can only look so many different directions 04:19:38.580 --> 04:19:39.420 at the time, right? 04:19:39.420 --> 04:19:42.500 Not when the whole lobby is beaming you. 04:19:42.500 --> 04:19:44.220 Just stuck between the rock and the hard plays there, 04:19:44.220 --> 04:19:47.380 quite literally, but that's exactly what 04:19:47.380 --> 04:19:54.380 They're not the only ones that are trying to hunt out a little bit of leapfrog action for these leaderboard standings. 04:19:54.380 --> 04:19:55.380 GRX brand new. 04:19:55.380 --> 04:20:03.380 We saw them get a win earlier on in today's competition, but ever since then, things a little bit more quiet than what they would have preferred. 04:20:03.380 --> 04:20:05.380 And now 109 below, 107 below. 04:20:05.380 --> 04:20:08.380 Surge picking away at their life. 04:20:08.380 --> 04:20:11.380 They don't have anything when it comes to shield. 04:20:11.380 --> 04:20:15.380 So they'll have to depend exclusively on finding another refresh altogether. 04:20:15.380 --> 04:20:20.780 Yeah, there's just tunnel vision on the backside of the zone, but look how far they actually have to go. 04:20:20.780 --> 04:20:27.580 And there goes the first knock. There's no HP to come back into this one, and Randu has officially been left by himself, which is unfortunate. 04:20:27.580 --> 04:20:35.180 Look at their materials. If anybody takes down Randu here and finds that treasure trove, it's essentially like opening up a loop llama here, 04:20:35.180 --> 04:20:42.780 but he realizes still being below the damage threshold, he can't take a singular tick of that storm surge damage when it finally does turn on. 04:20:42.780 --> 04:20:46.380 We never get the chance. 04:20:46.380 --> 04:20:52.500 He tried his best, but if Cringe actually makes it to that body loop, he is going to be stacked 04:20:52.500 --> 04:20:57.120 with a 5-5-5, and right now, you're going to look back into what went wrong here for 04:20:57.120 --> 04:21:02.120 Yates and Rax, despite having that little bit of a victory over Epic Welling. 04:21:02.120 --> 04:21:05.400 Pong turns out that that delay was all it takes. 04:21:05.400 --> 04:21:11.640 They were just not able to fully recover their surge damage, and getting shut down. 04:21:11.640 --> 04:21:18.120 such a crucial lobby for day one. It's all going to be banked on to how game six actually pans out. 04:21:18.680 --> 04:21:26.920 All eyes on Darman Demish. Second place. 34 points away from overtaking that first place spot 04:21:26.920 --> 04:21:34.840 and the only team alive inside of the top five. Honestly, if anybody else in the lobby notices 04:21:34.840 --> 04:21:39.320 this, you almost want to try to focus out Darman Demish going to alleviate the pressure, try to 04:21:39.320 --> 04:21:41.320 to catch up, but this is Darman Demish. 04:21:41.320 --> 04:21:44.800 They've been on fire almost all day long so far. 04:21:44.800 --> 04:21:47.520 The problem is, how do you focus on what Darman Demish 04:21:47.520 --> 04:21:50.200 are getting up to when you have your own game plan 04:21:50.200 --> 04:21:52.200 to try and bend her out in your favor? 04:21:52.200 --> 04:21:54.440 Shark Teenie, not gonna get the chance, 04:21:54.440 --> 04:21:58.120 both of them eliminated yet again so much earlier 04:21:58.120 --> 04:22:01.000 than what they were obviously hoping for. 04:22:01.000 --> 04:22:04.560 And with Darman Demish already taking over 04:22:04.560 --> 04:22:08.000 a high ground position, they'll have the benefit 04:22:08.000 --> 04:22:10.500 Sizing up the rest of this lobby, 04:22:10.500 --> 04:22:12.800 we know that they're getting on surge for the time being, 04:22:12.800 --> 04:22:16.600 but can they maintain it as they make their move forward? 04:22:16.600 --> 04:22:17.800 Yeah. 04:22:17.800 --> 04:22:19.300 Nine players need to go down. 04:22:19.300 --> 04:22:22.600 Storm surge will deactivate all together. 04:22:22.600 --> 04:22:24.300 So if you're below that damage threshold, 04:22:24.300 --> 04:22:25.800 almost place a little bit of mine gains. 04:22:25.800 --> 04:22:27.600 Do you want to try to reach above it? 04:22:27.600 --> 04:22:29.100 Simply try to out-heal it. 04:22:29.100 --> 04:22:30.700 And there's the mine gains right now, 04:22:30.700 --> 04:22:32.700 but they have no option but to go for it. 04:22:32.700 --> 04:22:34.400 92, they get above. 04:22:34.400 --> 04:22:35.800 Even without these eliminations, 04:22:35.800 --> 04:22:37.800 that goes to Izzy, that goes to Curve. 04:22:37.800 --> 04:22:40.440 They are the ones also kind of taking part 04:22:40.440 --> 04:22:43.160 and getting a little bit of back reward for their efforts, 04:22:43.160 --> 04:22:44.560 but they only have a little bit of heels 04:22:44.560 --> 04:22:46.120 to pass around between the two 04:22:46.120 --> 04:22:48.040 and even back might be fresh out. 04:22:48.040 --> 04:22:50.640 But it is still wild to think about just how rapidly 04:22:50.640 --> 04:22:52.640 these search thresholds have been shifting. 04:22:52.640 --> 04:22:54.800 Only four more players need to go down before 04:22:54.800 --> 04:22:57.960 it's not even a problem for anyone in this lobby 04:22:57.960 --> 04:22:59.600 to even think about, 04:22:59.600 --> 04:23:01.800 it's subconsciously for Darm Dimesh, 04:23:01.800 --> 04:23:04.720 being very aware of the fact that they are 04:23:04.720 --> 04:23:07.080 the only team we're standing in that top five. 04:23:07.080 --> 04:23:11.180 There are still other players that are looking to try and shake that conversation. 04:23:11.180 --> 04:23:13.180 Not Chino Pablo, certainly one of them. 04:23:13.180 --> 04:23:15.780 Ooh, I think Chino might have Stormsakenus. 04:23:15.780 --> 04:23:18.580 I was seeing him take big chunks of damage. 04:23:18.580 --> 04:23:22.780 Not sure if it's just this late in the zone where he was taking that damage while healing, 04:23:22.780 --> 04:23:24.180 or maybe he's just taking double. 04:23:24.180 --> 04:23:28.280 Stormsakenus essentially doubles what the current storm is actually doing. 04:23:28.280 --> 04:23:31.380 If you're in two tick, it does four damage so long and so far. 04:23:31.380 --> 04:23:35.680 Either way, he makes it inside of the zone just in time for this next rotation to go through. 04:23:35.680 --> 04:23:39.800 You see, Viko and Malibuco, though, relatively healthy versus most of the players we have 04:23:39.800 --> 04:23:44.960 seen in this lobby so far, making sure to elevate themselves above the rest of the competition. 04:23:44.960 --> 04:23:47.920 Such a smart approach, though, from Viko and Malibuco. 04:23:47.920 --> 04:23:52.440 They even opted to tank just a little bit outside, and they immediately capitalized 04:23:52.440 --> 04:23:54.120 for that later rotation. 04:23:54.120 --> 04:23:58.600 They've got a great frontside position, and they might even have the opportunity to 04:23:58.600 --> 04:24:03.240 look towards the high ground because Curve and Higgs, this zone pulling right back 04:24:03.240 --> 04:24:07.020 to where they found that game one success and they're hoping that they can replicate it. 04:24:07.020 --> 04:24:11.140 Yeah, I've seen more and more teams since that game one go up and try to contest that 04:24:11.140 --> 04:24:15.300 high ground. I think that's game or maybe the game before we saw four or five different teams 04:24:15.300 --> 04:24:20.700 up there kind of trading back and forth. They were unfortunately is gonna go down not eliminated 04:24:20.700 --> 04:24:25.460 just yet. You kind of see his HP down below kind of running out. Not sure his teammate could be 04:24:25.460 --> 04:24:29.260 the hero in that situation. But the next team that they really have to worry about 04:24:29.260 --> 04:24:32.940 Swizzy, Pixie, maybe, and Shari, and Salvatore, but Demish does go down. 04:24:32.940 --> 04:24:36.780 He has worries of his own now because Darm is almost out of the builds. 04:24:36.780 --> 04:24:38.940 He has Scythe and Maths left. 04:24:38.940 --> 04:24:40.620 Still, it's Darm. 04:24:40.620 --> 04:24:43.260 We've seen Demish go absolutely ballistic. 04:24:43.260 --> 04:24:47.500 I'm left in a similar position, and Darm definitely trying to put all those 04:24:47.500 --> 04:24:51.500 practices and creatives into actual live practice here. 04:24:52.220 --> 04:24:55.260 He's managed to kind of carve out a little bit of breathing room. 04:24:55.260 --> 04:24:56.700 No one's looking his way just yet. 04:24:56.700 --> 04:25:00.140 the team on high higgs and curve a little bit more fixated. 04:25:00.140 --> 04:25:01.840 Other 2-0s leaning towards that front side. 04:25:01.840 --> 04:25:05.100 Even the back side of zone getting picked apart now as Klitz will fall. 04:25:05.100 --> 04:25:07.700 Doesn't get a chance even to make it into zone and wrap it. 04:25:07.700 --> 04:25:08.700 Sized up for it. 04:25:08.700 --> 04:25:11.260 Yeah, goal and then an O is on a labor surgeon's end of this one. 04:25:11.260 --> 04:25:14.700 I believe before this game started they were inside of the top 10. 04:25:14.700 --> 04:25:16.500 Consistency is key for them. 04:25:16.500 --> 04:25:19.560 Sike, Geno and Pablo every time they make it off spawn, 04:25:19.560 --> 04:25:21.140 they really try to make it count. 04:25:21.140 --> 04:25:22.760 This is another one of those moments. 04:25:22.760 --> 04:25:24.460 Elimination in the back side of zone. 04:25:24.460 --> 04:25:25.600 He tries to hurry up. 04:25:25.600 --> 04:25:32.200 He grabs the 8-bit instead of the chug-chug, so he has to try to beeline his way back, but he runs into problems. 04:25:32.200 --> 04:25:36.200 Frank is going to take him down, but I'm not sure he's going to be able to get out alive either. 04:25:36.200 --> 04:25:40.800 He gets knocked, credit goes to Paolo, and that's a blessing because Siphon will keep him healed up. 04:25:40.800 --> 04:25:46.940 At the same time though, Paolo kind of in no-man's land right now just benefiting solely from the fact that 04:25:46.940 --> 04:25:50.600 Kyrgynyx kind of managed to actually gauge exactly where he's at. 04:25:50.600 --> 04:25:54.200 he'll continue to play the heels from inside of the storm, 04:25:54.200 --> 04:25:56.440 but it's only a matter of time before the sickness takes over. 04:25:56.440 --> 04:25:59.840 Fiko Malibuka, though, big shots onto Pixie. 04:25:59.840 --> 04:26:02.520 Billies have won a new first play team for Yota, 04:26:02.520 --> 04:26:05.000 and Yuma went down 232 points. 04:26:05.000 --> 04:26:08.000 Now Fiko and Malibuka have surpassed that. 04:26:08.000 --> 04:26:10.040 We're talking about the three-beat here. 04:26:10.040 --> 04:26:13.760 And in game five, they can be in the number one spot, 04:26:13.760 --> 04:26:16.200 but they still got to run through Hades and Kurzweil 04:26:16.200 --> 04:26:17.000 on high ground. 04:26:17.000 --> 04:26:19.560 You said it yourself, that feeling of deja vu. 04:26:19.560 --> 04:26:22.600 Nobody really has a chance to look up as we speak. 04:26:22.600 --> 04:26:26.900 Ozone and Golden though really starting to come alive here in Game 5. 04:26:26.900 --> 04:26:30.040 They've done what they can to make use of this lobby. 04:26:30.040 --> 04:26:33.560 But still, Nathan just on his other wall, they chunk out of his AP, 04:26:33.560 --> 04:26:36.440 but not enough to actually bring him down for the count just yet. 04:26:36.440 --> 04:26:39.640 He's going to Alibuka now, tripping their way forward, 04:26:39.640 --> 04:26:41.600 sort of hovering these lower layers, 04:26:41.600 --> 04:26:43.960 trying to see if they can get top on to anybody's floor, 04:26:43.960 --> 04:26:46.960 maybe even look down for themselves, gauge whether or not 04:26:46.960 --> 04:26:49.660 There's going to be a lone player that they can take advantage of. 04:26:49.660 --> 04:26:51.880 A lone player might be Pablo right above. 04:26:51.880 --> 04:26:55.320 There's three different solos running around this game right now. 04:26:55.320 --> 04:26:56.540 Trying to make something happen. 04:26:56.540 --> 04:26:59.200 Pablo is going to be one of those solos. 04:26:59.200 --> 04:27:02.160 He has enough left in the Trub Joe to get four HP and shield. 04:27:02.160 --> 04:27:05.240 But he don't know if he has enough to survive people of Malibuca 04:27:05.240 --> 04:27:07.920 who accidentally slipped just a little bit too far down. 04:27:07.920 --> 04:27:09.880 But they go from one player to another. 04:27:09.880 --> 04:27:11.240 Tidy's going to get pot out. 04:27:11.240 --> 04:27:12.560 Slyzzy could have been next. 04:27:12.560 --> 04:27:14.520 But he steals away the actual elimination. 04:27:14.520 --> 04:27:19.260 against the Siphon, but he doesn't get any of the maps so high ground that it's hard enough for free. 04:27:19.260 --> 04:27:25.700 And Viko Malibuka immediately capitalizing on the fact that they are the lone contenders currently 04:27:25.700 --> 04:27:29.900 towards this frontside position. Viko knows there's gotta be at least one player above us. 04:27:29.900 --> 04:27:34.900 Don't do a quick round over ahead immediately building out some clear space here. 04:27:34.900 --> 04:27:39.260 But Viko Malibuka, nine eliminations already can they make it a 10? 04:27:39.260 --> 04:27:44.020 I don't know if he meant to do that or not, but that was looking nice for a moment from Viko. 04:27:44.020 --> 04:27:47.540 He tries to climb up further and further Higgs and Kurt they get that elimination 04:27:47.540 --> 04:27:51.380 But maybe inadvertently helping the pressure from Viko and Malibuca 04:27:51.380 --> 04:27:56.000 So now it's gonna come down to this 2v2 situation NA versus EU 04:27:56.000 --> 04:28:00.500 Viko and Malibuca are in first place jumping around that's that first shot on the curb 04:28:00.500 --> 04:28:04.740 Even sliding around taking damage back and forth Viko's gonna fall 04:28:04.740 --> 04:28:07.860 Higgs and Kurt have done it yet again 04:28:07.860 --> 04:28:12.340 That brief little moment of Malibuca having to mantle over the ground 04:28:12.340 --> 04:28:16.340 But what choice did he have? No materials left to his name. 04:28:16.340 --> 04:28:19.340 They made the most of the situation at the end of it. 04:28:19.340 --> 04:28:21.340 A 9-point second, but watching Curve and Higgs 04:28:21.340 --> 04:28:25.340 find that game one success yet again. What an impressive feature. 04:28:25.340 --> 04:28:28.340 That was incredibly impressive from these two, 04:28:28.340 --> 04:28:32.340 but Higgs, you seem so calm off to get your second victory, Royale. 04:28:32.340 --> 04:28:33.340 It's only day one. 04:28:33.340 --> 04:28:37.340 I mean, we've seen him make end game and then we'll be there. 04:28:37.340 --> 04:28:40.340 So basically now for you guys, it's about consistency. 04:28:40.340 --> 04:28:45.620 consistency in notes again though that you have high ground for free. Yeah, this 04:28:45.620 --> 04:28:49.620 game was a little bit harder to play to be honest, but it was a good zone for us 04:28:49.620 --> 04:28:56.660 again. What made it harder? People like we're looking up. So people now know to 04:28:56.660 --> 04:29:01.220 watch out for you. I mean a high ground is dominating the winning games at the 04:29:01.220 --> 04:29:04.940 moment. There's only one drug that didn't take height to win. So for you 04:29:04.940 --> 04:29:09.540 now, do you feel like you're North America's best hope? Yeah, we might be. 04:29:09.540 --> 04:29:11.100 I'm going to be honest. 04:29:11.100 --> 04:29:13.300 And how do you like that pressure on your shoulders, 04:29:13.300 --> 04:29:15.180 Kerb? 04:29:15.180 --> 04:29:15.580 I don't know. 04:29:15.580 --> 04:29:17.820 I'm not really feeling pressure at all right now. 04:29:17.820 --> 04:29:19.100 Because you're a diamond? 04:29:19.100 --> 04:29:20.460 Yeah. 04:29:20.460 --> 04:29:21.620 He is absolutely diamond. 04:29:21.620 --> 04:29:24.340 You've got a diamond of an in-game leader as well. 04:29:24.340 --> 04:29:27.260 Higgs, what has it been like for you this year, 04:29:27.260 --> 04:29:30.140 having to form a last minute duo with Kerb, 04:29:30.140 --> 04:29:32.940 going into major two, now having these two VRs? 04:29:32.940 --> 04:29:34.860 Yeah, I mean, feels good. 04:29:34.860 --> 04:29:37.020 Kerb is the best teammate I've ever had. 04:29:37.020 --> 04:29:40.260 So, you know, it's just easy to win when we're in that game. 04:29:40.260 --> 04:29:44.420 Let's see if you can keep taking this smooth road 04:29:44.420 --> 04:29:45.980 all the way to another VR. 04:29:45.980 --> 04:29:47.260 Congratulations, guys. 04:29:47.260 --> 04:29:49.460 Everyone, give it up for Hicks and Curves! 04:29:49.460 --> 04:29:53.460 They vote for you guys at home, so don't go anywhere. 04:30:07.020 --> 04:30:18.660 And I don't know how to feel about it. 04:30:18.660 --> 04:30:20.820 You're not used to losing. 04:30:20.820 --> 04:30:21.820 Getting beaten? 04:30:21.820 --> 04:30:23.420 Not like this. 04:30:23.420 --> 04:30:26.140 These players are just so locked in. 04:30:26.140 --> 04:30:28.140 Could it be the milk? 04:30:28.140 --> 04:30:30.140 Mm-hmm 04:30:44.220 --> 04:30:46.220 Stay there 04:31:28.140 --> 04:31:30.140 Oh 04:32:28.140 --> 04:32:30.140 Oh 04:32:58.140 --> 04:33:20.420 I'm here with PapaCurve, James and Higgs' dad, Pete. 04:33:20.420 --> 04:33:22.380 What was the feelings like after that first game? 04:33:22.380 --> 04:33:23.860 Oh, it was super exciting. 04:33:23.860 --> 04:33:27.980 You know, it was the first win on land for Higgs. 04:33:27.980 --> 04:33:30.540 So it gives pumps to everything. 04:33:30.540 --> 04:33:33.300 And what's it like for you being a parent, 04:33:33.300 --> 04:33:34.820 you know, of a player, a fortnight, 04:33:34.820 --> 04:33:36.420 you know, a professional fortnight player as well? 04:33:36.420 --> 04:33:38.300 What's that like at home? 04:33:38.300 --> 04:33:39.340 We're very supportive. 04:33:39.340 --> 04:33:43.260 The whole family, we definitely like support them 100%. 04:33:43.260 --> 04:33:45.540 And so we're proud of them, very proud of them. 04:33:45.540 --> 04:33:46.580 How do you think they'll bounce back? 04:33:46.580 --> 04:33:48.100 You know them better than anyone. 04:33:48.100 --> 04:33:49.860 I think they'll be okay. 04:33:49.860 --> 04:33:53.020 We just saw them, they're already talking about it. 04:33:53.020 --> 04:33:55.020 They know what they need to do, what they've done wrong, 04:33:55.020 --> 04:33:57.100 and they've been doing this long enough 04:33:57.100 --> 04:33:58.500 where they're going to be okay. 04:33:58.500 --> 04:34:01.060 I think they'll be good, they're talking with each other, 04:34:01.060 --> 04:34:03.140 they're doing good, I think they'll be fine. 04:34:03.140 --> 04:34:04.700 Love it, well thank you so much guys, 04:34:04.700 --> 04:34:05.900 enjoy the rest of the day. 04:34:05.900 --> 04:34:08.340 By the way guys, Curve's the best controller player 04:34:08.340 --> 04:34:09.180 in the world. 04:34:09.180 --> 04:34:11.540 I'm not afraid to say it, but he is. 04:34:12.740 --> 04:34:14.700 I'm in, yeah buddy. 04:34:14.700 --> 04:34:15.820 We've got the best viewer right here, 04:34:15.820 --> 04:34:17.380 we've got the best viewer on the stage as well. 04:34:17.380 --> 04:34:19.260 Enjoy the rest of the day guys, thank you so much, 04:34:19.260 --> 04:34:20.260 and let's hope they bounce back. 04:34:20.260 --> 04:34:21.100 Yeah. 04:34:23.020 --> 04:34:26.620 I don't even know what's going 04:34:26.620 --> 04:34:28.620 on here. I can't even see 04:34:28.620 --> 04:34:30.420 through the darkness, but this 04:34:30.420 --> 04:34:31.620 is a big moment. We saw them get 04:34:31.620 --> 04:34:33.220 a victory out back in game 04:34:33.220 --> 04:34:34.620 wanted. That's many when you went 04:34:34.620 --> 04:34:36.420 by your life. Hey guys, we had 04:34:36.420 --> 04:34:39.020 to talk to you. Now a second 04:34:39.020 --> 04:34:41.020 VR. Yeah, this is great for 04:34:41.020 --> 04:34:42.020 this joy. They had such a great 04:34:42.020 --> 04:34:43.020 start. And that's always the 04:34:43.020 --> 04:34:44.020 big question. Can they then 04:34:44.020 --> 04:34:45.020 continue that? And I really 04:34:45.020 --> 04:34:46.020 like that. Actually what both 04:34:46.020 --> 04:34:48.020 of their dads are actually 04:34:48.020 --> 04:34:49.020 saying. They know that they 04:34:49.020 --> 04:34:51.020 know that they're going to 04:34:51.020 --> 04:34:54.780 dads are actually saying they know that they have the confidence in themselves to 04:34:54.780 --> 04:34:58.060 actually come back they were saying yeah we know what they can do they've been 04:34:58.060 --> 04:35:02.300 here before they've both been on a land stage they will come back and here we 04:35:02.300 --> 04:35:05.540 saw the results of that and even having the confidence and we were sort of 04:35:05.540 --> 04:35:08.620 talking about the support system behind them as well having the confidence in 04:35:08.620 --> 04:35:11.540 these players that they can then take into the game it's gonna do them a 04:35:11.540 --> 04:35:14.380 world of good you can see it right here Kelly for the rest of these games 04:35:14.380 --> 04:35:18.100 today it's gonna be great to see them continue that confidence and for them 04:35:18.100 --> 04:35:22.500 to be able to hold height for this long without barely any mats and barely no 04:35:22.500 --> 04:35:26.180 heels. They knew that they had to kind of play it a little passively, but it takes 04:35:26.180 --> 04:35:29.020 in curve. They're still able to get eliminations on the low ground. 04:35:29.020 --> 04:35:32.540 Unfortunately though they weren't able to drop down and get those mats, but that 04:35:32.540 --> 04:35:36.140 didn't matter. They were able to play that so conservatively and fortunately 04:35:36.140 --> 04:35:40.340 for them that low and mid ground again was just such chaos that no one was 04:35:40.340 --> 04:35:43.860 able to look on high. I'm really impressed with Hakes overall. I 04:35:43.860 --> 04:35:46.020 think of course when he was playing with Clicks, a lot of the spotlight 04:35:46.020 --> 04:35:48.020 team. I mean, it's not like 04:35:48.020 --> 04:35:50.020 it was on clicks, but I think 04:35:50.020 --> 04:35:51.020 it's important to highlight the 04:35:51.020 --> 04:35:52.020 development of Hicks as well. 04:35:52.020 --> 04:35:53.020 The way you've been able to 04:35:53.020 --> 04:35:54.020 lead this team because sort of 04:35:54.020 --> 04:35:55.020 the onus is now on Hicks to 04:35:55.020 --> 04:35:57.020 try and leave a curve in this 04:35:57.020 --> 04:35:59.020 environment. Of course, we have 04:35:59.020 --> 04:36:02.020 seen curve on land before. Uh 04:36:02.020 --> 04:36:03.020 looking quite confused, maybe, 04:36:03.020 --> 04:36:04.020 but he's, uh, yeah, we have 04:36:04.020 --> 04:36:06.020 seen him on land before, and 04:36:06.020 --> 04:36:07.020 I think it's sort of on Hicks 04:36:07.020 --> 04:36:08.020 right now to sort of exude 04:36:08.020 --> 04:36:09.020 that confidence and show that 04:36:09.020 --> 04:36:11.020 this team can stay consistent 04:36:11.020 --> 04:36:12.020 and make this not one or 04:36:12.020 --> 04:36:13.020 two games just having good 04:36:13.020 --> 04:36:14.020 games. It's all about 04:36:14.020 --> 04:36:15.020 having that consistency as 04:36:15.020 --> 04:36:21.500 I got a little word of something. We got to go to the standings. You wouldn't believe me if I told you so 04:36:21.500 --> 04:36:26.900 I'll just let the standings speak for themselves. We have a tiebreaker 04:36:34.260 --> 04:36:40.460 Can we look over at lifty lodge real quick cuz the fact that Viko and Malibu is able to be in second place 04:36:40.460 --> 04:36:44.540 still jumping up six placements there and then, of course, having Curve and Higgs get their second 04:36:44.540 --> 04:36:49.100 victory Royale. Definitely a lot of players might be looking towards that northwest corner of the 04:36:49.100 --> 04:36:55.820 map in day number two. But the thing that stands out even more to me right now is Yuma and Coyota 04:36:55.820 --> 04:37:00.460 are still holding strong in first place after having a really rough game five. 04:37:02.700 --> 04:37:06.140 Yeah, it's tough. It was an ideal for them. And that's that's ultimately what the question 04:37:06.140 --> 04:37:09.980 was for those guys. Of course, they got two wins today. Were they able to keep it up? I 04:37:09.980 --> 04:37:13.580 I think I'm most sort of impressed with this Viko and Malabuco, right? 04:37:13.580 --> 04:37:15.540 We saw them up on high in that last game. 04:37:15.540 --> 04:37:18.540 Things didn't exactly work out, of course, in the game before. 04:37:18.540 --> 04:37:21.300 In this last game right here, we saw them more playing low ground. 04:37:21.300 --> 04:37:23.620 And this is very similar to what we saw at the summit as well. 04:37:23.620 --> 04:37:25.780 And another reason why this team are so good 04:37:25.780 --> 04:37:28.260 is that they have all these options in their arsenal. 04:37:28.260 --> 04:37:29.660 They are capable of playing high. 04:37:29.660 --> 04:37:31.820 We know they take it when the time is right. 04:37:31.820 --> 04:37:33.700 And then when it comes to these low ground layers, 04:37:33.700 --> 04:37:37.220 the way they're able to play off each other is so, so important and effective 04:37:37.220 --> 04:37:39.180 that they just trust each other so much, Kelly. 04:37:39.180 --> 04:37:44.640 and that's why they're always you can see them in the same box looking at the same angle you don't often see them split 04:37:44.640 --> 04:37:46.640 But if they do they do have enough firepower 04:37:46.920 --> 04:37:48.540 Individually to get the job done as well 04:37:48.540 --> 04:37:53.660 And they're so aggressive on this mid ground and they kind of came into the end game there with a ton of mass 04:37:53.660 --> 04:37:55.460 And you would think maybe they're gonna lift a height one 04:37:55.460 --> 04:37:58.940 Yeah, but no they stuck to the mid ground and I think that allows it to even be more 04:37:59.220 --> 04:38:03.580 Aggressive and recover and then finally once they keep that aggression going and they do start to run on the mats 04:38:03.580 --> 04:38:07.740 That's when they're able to get those refreshes and then of course coming down into the final moment here 04:38:07.740 --> 04:38:11.740 a 2v2 and you know that Viko and Malibuca, they are set up for it. 04:38:11.740 --> 04:38:14.380 But when it's Higgs and Curve, two incredible, 04:38:14.380 --> 04:38:17.460 fragging players, there's only so much you can do. 04:38:17.460 --> 04:38:20.700 But regardless of that, Viko and Malib, what they best 04:38:20.700 --> 04:38:23.700 is be consistent and that is what we are seeing here 04:38:23.700 --> 04:38:26.020 once again today. 04:38:26.020 --> 04:38:27.940 Mini, you called it out earlier. 04:38:27.940 --> 04:38:30.020 That's the scary Viko right there. 04:38:30.020 --> 04:38:32.020 That's the scary Viko. 04:38:32.020 --> 04:38:33.700 That's the Viko that has come alive. 04:38:33.700 --> 04:38:35.700 We are now at a tiebreaker. 04:38:35.700 --> 04:38:39.420 I want to talk more about what you want is more games. 04:38:39.420 --> 04:38:42.580 Castors, take it away. 04:38:42.580 --> 04:38:46.980 I know I'm usually the guy that says NA West and Asia this time. 04:38:46.980 --> 04:38:49.940 Coyota and Yuma history could be made. 04:38:49.940 --> 04:38:51.260 They got their two wins. 04:38:51.260 --> 04:38:53.300 They are tied, but they're breaking the tiebreaker 04:38:53.300 --> 04:38:54.060 with those wins. 04:38:54.060 --> 04:38:56.060 Look, right now, I think Coyota and Yuma 04:38:56.060 --> 04:38:58.740 are just glad that Viko Malibuca have taken up 04:38:58.740 --> 04:39:00.740 until now to get things figured out. 04:39:00.740 --> 04:39:03.020 But we still have one more game to go, so game six. 04:39:03.020 --> 04:39:03.540 Let's see. 04:39:05.700 --> 04:39:21.740 the final game of the day. 04:39:21.740 --> 04:39:23.740 Number one. This could be the 04:39:23.740 --> 04:39:25.740 pinnacle moment and a chance to 04:39:25.740 --> 04:39:28.740 break that tie. Vico Malibuca 04:39:28.740 --> 04:39:30.740 back to backland winners 04:39:30.740 --> 04:39:32.740 looking for the three P and 04:39:32.740 --> 04:39:34.740 the Coyota and Yuma a team 04:39:34.740 --> 04:39:40.900 that is looking to make not just their dreams come true, but dreams of an entire region and look it's 04:39:40.900 --> 04:39:47.700 very easy to want to spotlight what top two leaderboards we're getting up to for Fortuno and Pablo. 04:39:47.700 --> 04:39:54.660 One more time running it back here at StoneSaint and Pablo with the opening elimination credit that 04:39:54.660 --> 04:40:00.660 not going to buy them so much time all they need to do is figure out exactly where Mac is as 04:40:00.660 --> 04:40:03.260 they are not looking to risk anything. 04:40:03.260 --> 04:40:06.300 These two want to be fully certain 04:40:06.300 --> 04:40:10.300 that they have total control of the PLI. 04:40:10.300 --> 04:40:13.140 And just like they did in that last game, 04:40:13.140 --> 04:40:14.440 they can go and hunt for him, 04:40:14.440 --> 04:40:15.740 or they could just try to loot up. 04:40:15.740 --> 04:40:18.240 They know he has to be around here somewhere 04:40:18.240 --> 04:40:19.340 while I try to pause. 04:40:19.340 --> 04:40:20.840 There goes that elimination there. 04:40:20.840 --> 04:40:24.640 So he did obviously know he wasn't going for the revive. 04:40:24.640 --> 04:40:26.780 So now they just need to play kind of literally 04:40:26.780 --> 04:40:29.560 the same way they did before Toyota and Yuma 04:40:29.560 --> 04:40:34.840 this time around we saw to draw out Spawn fight in that last game for Yoda and Yuma getting so 04:40:34.840 --> 04:40:40.520 aggressive here and getting the eliminations once more and that's the thing I noticed not just them 04:40:40.520 --> 04:40:45.560 in first place not just them with the two big three royals it's the eliminations I think on 04:40:45.560 --> 04:40:50.680 that first page they have the most eliminations out of any team. And more importantly still they 04:40:50.680 --> 04:40:55.400 needed that to be a very quick off Spawn fight because what happened in the last lobby 04:40:55.400 --> 04:40:58.040 when things took a little bit too long for the dust to settle. 04:40:58.040 --> 04:41:02.200 We saw that third-party intervention and that was just enough of a delay 04:41:02.200 --> 04:41:06.280 to pose a big enough problem for Yuma and Koyota that they found themselves 04:41:06.280 --> 04:41:09.960 with an early departure in game five and now they know 04:41:09.960 --> 04:41:13.960 they have to be absolutely flawless in this six game 04:41:13.960 --> 04:41:18.680 to put themselves in the best possible position for day two because Viko and Malibuka, 04:41:18.680 --> 04:41:23.480 they are taking names and they are writing off every single duo in this lobby. 04:41:23.480 --> 04:41:28.280 with one knock onto the young Josh trying to do what he can still stay standing 04:41:28.280 --> 04:41:31.280 but so much pressure coming in from you. 04:41:31.280 --> 04:41:34.680 They probably see they're trying to go for that Pac-Man ghost. 04:41:34.680 --> 04:41:37.080 Get that one, get a little bit of extra loot. 04:41:37.080 --> 04:41:41.680 Maybe if Josh and Yamzo got it, they could try to go ahead and keep Josh alive 04:41:41.680 --> 04:41:43.880 because it does give you that extra gold. 04:41:43.880 --> 04:41:44.980 Can you see him returning back? 04:41:44.980 --> 04:41:47.480 No, they didn't even get a chance to grab it. 04:41:47.480 --> 04:41:52.780 Chug jug, gold, it spawns a blue or higher rarity weapon as well. 04:41:52.780 --> 04:41:56.220 They got everything they could have asked for out of that situation. 04:41:57.220 --> 04:42:01.420 Completely perfect execution there by Vico and Malibuca. 04:42:01.920 --> 04:42:05.820 And that's only going to add a list of roles for some of these other teams. 04:42:05.820 --> 04:42:10.920 The Lockies, Sky, Scroll, doing what they can to try and defend their positioning on the leaderboard. 04:42:11.320 --> 04:42:15.220 And climb back up to a more steady placement. 04:42:15.220 --> 04:42:17.060 But it's just not going to be easy. 04:42:17.060 --> 04:42:19.620 Reality's rain is really starting to heat up here. 04:42:19.620 --> 04:42:21.620 I'm sharing salva 04:42:21.620 --> 04:42:26.840 They're going for it all out effort right now to just take this fight outright. Yeah 04:42:26.840 --> 04:42:33.980 I'm sure in Salvatore is one of those scenes where they might have a little bit of a chip on their shoulder against sky and scroll 04:42:33.980 --> 04:42:38.460 They were the ones kind of getting farmed out of the sky in a game that EWC 04:42:38.460 --> 04:42:43.220 They took that personal and they're not leaving reality great because of a shark and teeny do a little bit of a board play 04:42:43.220 --> 04:42:47.260 the game on with shadow and 04:42:47.260 --> 04:42:48.460 Virgo went over to Golden 04:42:48.460 --> 04:42:50.460 Grove. Teeny and shark get 04:42:50.460 --> 04:42:51.460 their fight back. Not only 04:42:51.460 --> 04:42:52.460 that, but Teeny shark, they 04:42:52.460 --> 04:42:53.460 don't look like they're done. 04:42:53.460 --> 04:42:55.460 Yes. Yeah. I mean, they 04:42:55.460 --> 04:42:59.460 ventured. So rather quickly 04:42:59.460 --> 04:43:00.460 and call it 27, even though 04:43:00.460 --> 04:43:01.460 they're going to send out 04:43:01.460 --> 04:43:02.460 some straight shot here. It's 04:43:02.460 --> 04:43:03.460 not actually going to net 04:43:03.460 --> 04:43:04.460 them anything of benefit. 04:43:04.460 --> 04:43:05.460 Just giving away their 04:43:05.460 --> 04:43:06.460 position. Yuma Coyota 04:43:06.460 --> 04:43:07.460 might be the ones who 04:43:07.460 --> 04:43:08.460 need to keep an open eye 04:43:08.460 --> 04:43:09.460 out because if sharking 04:43:09.460 --> 04:43:13.380 might be the ones who need to keep an open eye out because if shark and teen 04:43:13.380 --> 04:43:18.020 are lurking about nothing is safe. Yeah sometimes first place is fine and dandy 04:43:18.580 --> 04:43:24.340 but at this day and age when it comes to Fortnite first place also puts a target on your back 04:43:24.340 --> 04:43:27.860 and it's not just mbiko and malibu because it might have to worry here for they did get 04:43:27.860 --> 04:43:30.980 aggressive early on with the armadillos taking some shots trying to leave the 04:43:30.980 --> 04:43:36.660 sum to chores but you can kind of see their load out double chugs they got chug splashes 04:43:36.660 --> 04:43:39.660 They got big pause almost maxed out of the materials. 04:43:39.660 --> 04:43:42.260 So they kind of got everything they would need out of some controls. 04:43:42.260 --> 04:43:44.660 So there's no reason to overstay their welcome by any means. 04:43:44.660 --> 04:43:50.160 Yeah, why stick around when you already have the benefit of everything you can need and then some. 04:43:51.460 --> 04:43:53.460 They'll have to be a bit cautious. 04:43:53.460 --> 04:43:55.960 Definitely going to spot out for Indiana, Lucie. 04:43:55.960 --> 04:43:57.460 Top of that hillside. 04:43:57.460 --> 04:43:58.360 It's Mack. 04:43:58.360 --> 04:44:03.860 Now, kidding for his life, hoping that the falls don't actually spot him out. 04:44:04.560 --> 04:44:06.160 Can't move a muscle just yet. 04:44:06.160 --> 04:44:11.200 clicks and rapid though still doing their best to try and maintain a decent 04:44:11.200 --> 04:44:17.680 positioning here in day one it's been rough at times but we have still seen 04:44:17.680 --> 04:44:21.840 those glimpses those opportunities that they've been able to try and create for themselves 04:44:21.840 --> 04:44:27.840 yeah and they're still in contention not too far away from that top spot so they got to make sure 04:44:27.840 --> 04:44:32.720 this game counts and then go in tomorrow and that's something I feel like they could do 04:44:32.720 --> 04:44:40.180 especially at any more matches here team is found him out. Oh no, Demish gets the one 04:44:40.180 --> 04:44:44.700 pump drops him down full box them. There's four more points on their way up that 04:44:44.700 --> 04:44:48.720 leaderboard. I think they might only be eight points shy of tying the first and 04:44:48.720 --> 04:44:52.240 second place teams. It wouldn't surprise me in the slide is for Demish and 04:44:52.240 --> 04:44:56.320 Darren to just continue to go hunting to make up for those leaderboard points 04:44:56.320 --> 04:45:01.120 too. But Pixie, Swizzy, another team sort of hovering around that top five you 04:45:01.120 --> 04:45:02.680 You can see just above them tied. 04:45:02.680 --> 04:45:04.400 It's their exact score. 04:45:04.400 --> 04:45:08.560 Curve and Higgs, thanks to their double victory royals, 04:45:08.560 --> 04:45:13.160 it has put them from keeping NA completely locked out 04:45:13.160 --> 04:45:15.360 of the top five, but Regen definitely 04:45:15.360 --> 04:45:18.000 still a bit on life alert. 04:45:18.000 --> 04:45:20.040 Yeah, you can see points spread here and there, 04:45:20.040 --> 04:45:22.680 starting to kind of open up, six and seven, 04:45:22.680 --> 04:45:24.600 roughly 18 or so points. 04:45:24.600 --> 04:45:27.080 So this game, honestly, is very, very telling 04:45:27.080 --> 04:45:29.000 where you land on the leaderboard. 04:45:29.000 --> 04:45:30.680 If you're looking for a first place finish 04:45:30.680 --> 04:45:36.200 the weekend is over is really going to dictate how you get to play tomorrow. If you're further down 04:45:36.200 --> 04:45:39.880 the leaderboard you may need to get aggressive. Close the gap with elimination points. If you're 04:45:39.880 --> 04:45:44.520 higher up on the leaderboard maybe just switch one or two things up. Yeah but better late than 04:45:44.520 --> 04:45:50.440 never and for Higgs and Curve they might just be able to keep surging forward at this rate. 04:45:51.000 --> 04:45:55.080 It's definitely what they're trying to see if they can continue to spill 04:45:55.080 --> 04:46:01.620 any sort of a gap. Keeping teams locked out and away from them on leaderboard would be the best case scenario. 04:46:01.620 --> 04:46:07.420 But obviously things are hardly ever going to go to plan, especially in a land environment, but for Ozone and Golden, 04:46:07.420 --> 04:46:10.980 these guys have definitely started to come alive here. 04:46:10.980 --> 04:46:17.220 Yeah, and honestly, before kind of flying on over, you know, the last eval cup in NA, they didn't win a game, 04:46:17.220 --> 04:46:24.420 but they were consistently top two, top three. You go to Saturday, they pop off, and now coming into the global championship, 04:46:24.420 --> 04:46:29.380 13 that's not necessarily catching fire like Toyota and Yuma but look at them on 04:46:29.380 --> 04:46:34.820 seventh place 174 points climbing up Pablo and Chino as well we talk about our 04:46:34.820 --> 04:46:38.140 triple contested fights they're the second of those could triple tennis that 04:46:38.140 --> 04:46:41.500 suffice and they're inside of the top ten as well it's really impressive to 04:46:41.500 --> 04:46:45.380 think that Chino and Pablo have essentially gone five one with their 04:46:45.380 --> 04:46:51.340 off-sponsoring here in day one it is going to lead a huge question mark in 04:46:51.340 --> 04:46:53.500 In terms of day two and whether or not that can get 04:46:53.500 --> 04:46:56.620 to actually feel comfortable with trying to pursue 04:46:56.620 --> 04:46:58.300 that kind of off-spot interaction. 04:46:58.300 --> 04:47:01.740 But Kanata, Ark, getting a bit sneaky here. 04:47:01.740 --> 04:47:04.340 Pablo, Chino gonna take some tags along the way. 04:47:04.340 --> 04:47:06.380 Looks like Golden and Ozone are going to profit 04:47:06.380 --> 04:47:07.860 from that initial surge base. 04:47:07.860 --> 04:47:11.220 But freaking Kanata, how long are they willing 04:47:11.220 --> 04:47:13.620 to wait for their opportunity to strike? 04:47:13.620 --> 04:47:15.540 Yeah, you can see Chino and Pampu are kind of putting 04:47:15.540 --> 04:47:16.460 their heads in the basket. 04:47:16.460 --> 04:47:18.820 If it's rotating towards the Eastern side of the map, 04:47:18.820 --> 04:47:20.780 let's just beat every other team there. 04:47:20.780 --> 04:47:23.180 because if we wait until the zone closes, 04:47:23.180 --> 04:47:24.940 the Western and the Southern side 04:47:24.940 --> 04:47:26.500 could very well be stacked up. 04:47:26.500 --> 04:47:28.420 You kind of see there how many teams 04:47:28.420 --> 04:47:30.180 are continuing to rotate in. 04:47:30.180 --> 04:47:32.420 I think there's more teams or just as many teams 04:47:32.420 --> 04:47:35.060 outside of the zone as there is inside. 04:47:35.060 --> 04:47:37.100 I know we got at least three at Guantanet, 04:47:37.100 --> 04:47:39.020 a couple still around reality range, 04:47:39.020 --> 04:47:40.700 a bunch split at the top of the mountain 04:47:40.700 --> 04:47:43.060 that even Guantanet landing all the way towards the North 04:47:43.060 --> 04:47:44.340 has a couple players inside. 04:47:44.340 --> 04:47:46.140 Also a good netting of teams 04:47:46.140 --> 04:47:48.100 still hanging out towards that Southern section 04:47:48.100 --> 04:47:51.640 up the map, tanking up some of those stormtakes early on. 04:47:51.640 --> 04:47:55.680 Malibuca and Viko though, these last two lobbies specifically, 04:47:55.680 --> 04:47:59.140 we have seen them get off to a very quick start. 04:47:59.140 --> 04:48:02.820 They are not spending a lot of time at their initial POI, 04:48:02.820 --> 04:48:06.140 but even with their quick departure out of Lifty, 04:48:06.140 --> 04:48:09.180 still being able to hang around that northern side of the map 04:48:09.180 --> 04:48:12.880 and done such a great job at just following their tracks 04:48:12.880 --> 04:48:14.780 backwards. 04:48:14.780 --> 04:48:17.100 See, Viko, Malibuca, and Cammy have qualified 04:48:17.100 --> 04:48:19.500 for their six FNCS land finals. 04:48:19.500 --> 04:48:23.180 They have never missed one. 04:48:23.180 --> 04:48:26.340 We always talked about Kanata never missing a grand finals 04:48:26.340 --> 04:48:27.500 and you kind of look at lands, 04:48:27.500 --> 04:48:28.700 they're a little bit more prestigious, 04:48:28.700 --> 04:48:30.420 that's gotta be better. 04:48:30.420 --> 04:48:31.780 I think what would be even crazier though 04:48:31.780 --> 04:48:34.500 to think about is if they do manage to repeat 04:48:34.500 --> 04:48:36.540 a third land victory out of the six 04:48:36.540 --> 04:48:40.780 that they have fought for, that's a 50-50 odds 04:48:40.780 --> 04:48:45.380 of beating a land champion, a crazy record 04:48:45.380 --> 04:48:49.060 But they could strike in Fortnite history, but they got to get there first. 04:48:49.060 --> 04:48:51.340 They still got to make it through day number one. 04:48:51.340 --> 04:48:54.660 And they've got to see whether or not they can even overtake Toyota and 04:48:54.660 --> 04:48:55.740 Yuma along the way. 04:48:57.740 --> 04:49:00.700 We call it unorthodox rotation by any means. 04:49:00.700 --> 04:49:04.260 Toyota Yuma, standard gameplay out of coming out of Cluster Coast. 04:49:04.260 --> 04:49:06.180 You know you're gonna stay in the zone. 04:49:06.180 --> 04:49:09.740 A good portion of that early game, but at least when they do make it in, 04:49:09.740 --> 04:49:13.220 I think they're kind of above or at least quicker than a lot of these other 04:49:13.220 --> 04:49:16.020 teams so they should be able to position themselves accordingly. Clicks of 04:49:16.020 --> 04:49:20.180 Rapid though on the other hand might not have that same luxury. You already see 04:49:20.180 --> 04:49:23.700 teams ahead of them at reality rain. You gotta matter how many more up in front 04:49:23.700 --> 04:49:27.060 as well. And I'm not trying to get ahead of things by any means here, but for 04:49:27.060 --> 04:49:32.380 clicks specifically, he is definitely marking off that inch from what happened 04:49:32.380 --> 04:49:37.060 over at land during summit. He's just ensuring that they have best case 04:49:37.060 --> 04:49:41.140 scenario heading into day two. This has been a night and day performance. 04:49:43.220 --> 04:49:52.220 And seeing off in the distance, those two teams, Tide and Jule, Sky and Skrull, they're going to have to kind of rotate past them. 04:49:52.220 --> 04:49:55.220 Maybe not necessarily right through them with Brax and Yee-Hiannis. 04:49:55.220 --> 04:50:01.220 Honestly, pretty impressive, 156 points, and we've seen how the last two games have gone. 04:50:01.220 --> 04:50:05.220 It almost looks like they have full control, and then one misstep kind of cost them at all. 04:50:05.220 --> 04:50:09.220 And obviously Storm served to be in the main focal points of their downfall, 04:50:09.220 --> 04:50:13.860 fall even with getting elimination they're just taking too much damage in those fights they're usually 04:50:13.860 --> 04:50:19.300 below it glad to see a whole switch up in this game it's still early but 218 above is going to give 04:50:19.300 --> 04:50:23.860 you a whole different type of comfort ability to rotate in and around the zone it's just so difficult 04:50:23.860 --> 04:50:28.180 to actually stick to the same strategy when every other duo that has yet to find success on the 04:50:28.180 --> 04:50:34.660 day is immediately going to try and switch things up it's definitely thrown a little bit of a 04:50:34.660 --> 04:50:46.900 problem into the actual strategy for Rax and Yannis, but even with a little bit of a haul throughout that midsection of today's games, if they can finish strong on the day, that would still put them in a great position for day two. 04:50:46.900 --> 04:50:53.900 We're tuning the nebs and Nathan, we see Thomas and folks and they disappear off the map, see 04:50:53.900 --> 04:50:55.900 the three eliminations there. 04:50:55.900 --> 04:50:58.900 So you know what the dust settles, who kind of got the better end of that deal? 04:50:58.900 --> 04:51:02.900 Janice and Rax kind of getting followed by Epic and Pop. 04:51:02.900 --> 04:51:06.900 Whether this is intentional or not could be an opportunity for a get back from Epic 04:51:06.900 --> 04:51:07.900 and Pop. 04:51:07.900 --> 04:51:09.900 We saw what happened in that last game as well. 04:51:09.900 --> 04:51:10.900 Then they just straight over. 04:51:10.900 --> 04:51:12.900 Viko and Malapuca took them down. 04:51:12.900 --> 04:51:15.900 The reboot came in, but Janice and Rax took them down shortly after. 04:51:15.900 --> 04:51:19.500 after and they have to make this decision. They're still above the damage threshold, 04:51:19.500 --> 04:51:23.580 but if they start a fight against Epic, look at the south side of battlewood. There's another 04:51:23.580 --> 04:51:27.420 team there that they might not know about and could get surprised by. Well, Epic and Pomphimore 04:51:27.420 --> 04:51:31.180 have already put a bit of a stinger here onto rax in the Ennis' plan. They clearly add the 04:51:31.180 --> 04:51:35.340 intentions of wrapping around that north side of battlewood, but with Epic and Will getting 04:51:35.340 --> 04:51:40.060 the opportunity to surpass them, that's going to force them to kind of opt for a little 04:51:40.060 --> 04:51:44.140 bit more of a white line approach, and that does put them at the exposure of those teams 04:51:44.140 --> 04:51:46.580 towards the south side, but Nebs, Nathan, 04:51:46.580 --> 04:51:48.540 we knew they were already in the spot of trouble here, 04:51:48.540 --> 04:51:50.980 and Nebs managed to return things around. 04:51:50.980 --> 04:51:53.740 Pay the limitations on to focus and Thomas. 04:51:55.100 --> 04:51:57.180 Nebs really putting it on right now. 04:51:57.180 --> 04:51:59.460 You see the frustration coming in. 04:51:59.460 --> 04:52:01.860 They weren't necessarily in the best spot 04:52:01.860 --> 04:52:02.740 to kind of start with. 04:52:02.740 --> 04:52:05.100 You saw both of them relatively weak, 04:52:05.100 --> 04:52:06.740 but just getting one V2 like that 04:52:06.740 --> 04:52:09.100 got to hurt just a little bit mentally. 04:52:09.100 --> 04:52:10.420 But at least it's the last game of the day. 04:52:10.420 --> 04:52:11.860 That nothing to worry about. 04:52:11.860 --> 04:52:13.660 They can go hit the bots after this 04:52:13.660 --> 04:52:15.700 and come back stronger tomorrow. 04:52:15.700 --> 04:52:17.340 You see Yanis are back game after game. 04:52:17.340 --> 04:52:20.580 They've been progressively getting better each and every time. 04:52:20.580 --> 04:52:23.820 182 above the damage threshold. 04:52:23.820 --> 04:52:26.020 And I think they're taking these learning lessons, 04:52:26.020 --> 04:52:27.940 kind of the mistakes they had in the previous games, 04:52:27.940 --> 04:52:30.500 being below serves too far away from the zone. 04:52:30.500 --> 04:52:32.020 They took it seriously right now. 04:52:32.020 --> 04:52:34.380 They're kind of speeding up their game plan 04:52:34.380 --> 04:52:36.380 like they have before. 04:52:36.380 --> 04:52:37.780 It's a little bit of a scary spot 04:52:37.780 --> 04:52:41.820 to be in though still for Rax and Yanis. 04:52:41.820 --> 04:52:46.140 are still a handful of teams kind of trickling either way 04:52:46.140 --> 04:52:47.620 from where these two are currently at. 04:52:47.620 --> 04:52:50.160 In the moment, they look to exit off 04:52:50.160 --> 04:52:51.380 of taking that Ascender upwards. 04:52:51.380 --> 04:52:55.700 Venno and Agers, of course, with that little bit of elevation 04:52:55.700 --> 04:52:56.940 off the mountain face. 04:52:56.940 --> 04:52:58.300 When you get a couple of good tags in, 04:52:58.300 --> 04:53:00.860 and that immediately sticks racks in Yanis 04:53:00.860 --> 04:53:03.060 to a situation where they're 87 below, 04:53:03.060 --> 04:53:05.460 trying to change that conversation very rapidly, 04:53:05.460 --> 04:53:07.780 though they can take out Venno a little bit of revenge 04:53:07.780 --> 04:53:10.140 here even, and right back to being 34 above, 04:53:10.140 --> 04:53:11.780 but it's still just enough. 04:53:11.780 --> 04:53:17.780 They're doing barely enough. They're literally putting one foot in front of the other here, and this is where it starts to get dangerous. 04:53:17.780 --> 04:53:23.780 They're in a two tick zone that immediately changes to a five tick. They're above the damage threshold, 04:53:23.780 --> 04:53:32.780 but how are they going to make it alive? How D-Clix is in that same scenario, and he's much further away with only two shots and his last med kit being used. 04:53:32.780 --> 04:53:39.860 You want to believe that it could be step by step, but one team making a very quick approach from that same 04:53:40.300 --> 04:53:46.400 Southern section and it's sky and scroll of all teams to be trailing behind clicks right now 04:53:46.700 --> 04:53:48.700 Headed back over to wonky land 04:53:49.860 --> 04:53:51.860 Barely managing to scrape the light 04:53:52.060 --> 04:53:57.980 Engine zone one more tick of storm would have been the end of it, but he's still alive at least for right now 04:53:57.980 --> 04:54:02.980 We're about to witness one of the greatest so little clutches of all time. 04:54:02.980 --> 04:54:03.980 I'm all here for it. 04:54:03.980 --> 04:54:05.980 We'll give him some time to cook up. 04:54:05.980 --> 04:54:08.980 We know Skynexpro, I've gotten their opportunities as well. 04:54:08.980 --> 04:54:10.980 His game has not been friendly to them either, 04:54:10.980 --> 04:54:12.980 or at least they're above the damage threshold. 04:54:12.980 --> 04:54:16.980 Right, we're missing some shock waves and a couple extra heals 04:54:16.980 --> 04:54:18.980 and some materials on top of that. 04:54:18.980 --> 04:54:21.980 But it's better to have that than be eliminated out of the game. 04:54:21.980 --> 04:54:23.980 Especially since it's the last and final one of the day. 04:54:23.980 --> 04:54:25.980 Just such a fickle spot to be in. 04:54:25.980 --> 04:54:28.980 Clicks knowing that they're just hovering inside of that top 10 position 04:54:28.980 --> 04:54:31.980 and as a solo, trying to clutch out placement points, 04:54:31.980 --> 04:54:35.980 not even factoring in yet, and Skye squirreling, 04:54:35.980 --> 04:54:38.980 seemingly having a pretty solid position. 04:54:38.980 --> 04:54:41.980 Largely due to the fact that they've got a decent amount of service to work with, 04:54:41.980 --> 04:54:47.980 but Wonkyland just seemingly causing a lot of problems right now 04:54:47.980 --> 04:54:49.980 for other teams, darn dealers though, 04:54:49.980 --> 04:54:52.140 I can actually beat the target. 04:54:52.140 --> 04:54:55.300 Rick's maybe if he can get a refresh, 04:54:55.300 --> 04:54:57.220 that little bit of siphon will go a long way. 04:54:57.220 --> 04:55:00.460 Yeah, he got the Elan when I'm saying like air quotes here, 04:55:00.460 --> 04:55:01.300 it was a knock. 04:55:01.300 --> 04:55:02.700 So that's why he didn't get the siphon. 04:55:02.700 --> 04:55:05.300 Either Fortnite is celebrating my birthday 04:55:05.300 --> 04:55:06.620 or is it the global championship? 04:55:06.620 --> 04:55:07.900 All jokes there aside, 04:55:07.900 --> 04:55:09.860 if you see how that extra noise 04:55:09.860 --> 04:55:12.260 might be causing a little bit more confusion 04:55:12.260 --> 04:55:14.180 around the rest of the lobby. 04:55:14.180 --> 04:55:15.340 Cause a lot of these players, 04:55:15.340 --> 04:55:17.340 they really utilize the audio. 04:55:17.340 --> 04:55:18.580 So kind of having that in the mix 04:55:18.580 --> 04:55:21.040 kind of might throw a wrench in it just a little bit. 04:55:21.040 --> 04:55:24.300 Hits and curves, little bit of a replay, 235, 04:55:24.300 --> 04:55:26.460 a bad beat with the shark. 04:55:26.460 --> 04:55:28.220 That's going to cause Hits' life. 04:55:28.220 --> 04:55:29.860 And now Curve gets focused out, 04:55:29.860 --> 04:55:31.300 and he's going to fall as well. 04:55:31.300 --> 04:55:34.260 That bounce back was just so brutal. 04:55:34.260 --> 04:55:36.100 Any little bit of collision, 04:55:36.100 --> 04:55:38.740 it's just going to end up in a crash course landing. 04:55:38.740 --> 04:55:42.880 Shark teeny, just away from all of it. 04:55:42.880 --> 04:55:45.820 But Coyota, close enough 04:55:45.820 --> 04:55:48.540 that he could definitely be scouted out 04:55:48.540 --> 04:55:50.020 But he has to do this as a solo, Jacob. 04:55:50.020 --> 04:55:52.820 He has to try and lock down a first place position, 04:55:52.820 --> 04:55:54.580 and then we don't even know what Malibuca and Vika 04:55:54.580 --> 04:55:55.420 have been getting up to. 04:55:55.420 --> 04:55:56.300 I believe. 04:55:56.300 --> 04:55:57.380 I believe. 04:55:57.380 --> 04:55:59.420 There's a whole region watching this at home 04:55:59.420 --> 04:56:00.820 that's believing as well. 04:56:00.820 --> 04:56:03.460 310 split between two chug jugs. 04:56:03.460 --> 04:56:05.220 He has four different shockwaves. 04:56:05.220 --> 04:56:07.820 As long as he doesn't get max pull after max pull, 04:56:07.820 --> 04:56:10.900 this could be doable for Toyota to pick up some points, 04:56:10.900 --> 04:56:12.180 keep this one relatively close. 04:56:12.180 --> 04:56:14.100 We've seen what Klicks has been able to do. 04:56:14.100 --> 04:56:17.700 He saw a sliver of HP earlier on in the same scenario, 04:56:17.700 --> 04:56:20.180 And he's consistently staying above the damage threshold. 04:56:20.180 --> 04:56:22.500 The first right now is he's so far back, 04:56:22.500 --> 04:56:24.700 teams begin to notice and Rax takes him out. 04:56:24.700 --> 04:56:27.220 He just didn't have any other options. 04:56:27.220 --> 04:56:29.460 That was his best bet on trying to make it 04:56:29.460 --> 04:56:32.220 into a safe spot so he can actually look 04:56:32.220 --> 04:56:33.620 for playing the shield motions. 04:56:33.620 --> 04:56:36.540 It's just so unfortunate, but still a decent day. 04:56:36.540 --> 04:56:38.780 We'll see how it holds up for the overall standing. 04:56:38.780 --> 04:56:40.260 Starm, Dmish. 04:56:40.260 --> 04:56:41.900 Now trying to gauge whether or not 04:56:41.900 --> 04:56:45.340 that he even try and head a little bit closer 04:56:45.340 --> 04:56:46.500 towards that high ground territory, 04:56:46.500 --> 04:56:47.620 but it seems like low. 04:56:47.620 --> 04:56:50.580 is the pool folk is currently, they're recognizing the fact 04:56:50.580 --> 04:56:53.660 there are so many teams underneath them just encountering 04:56:53.660 --> 04:56:55.380 their own school problems. 04:56:55.380 --> 04:56:57.340 Yeah, they're trying to pop themselves. 04:56:57.340 --> 04:57:00.380 Saw that pre-edit come in, they went for the opportunity. 04:57:00.380 --> 04:57:03.500 Unfortunately, they left empty handed, but no harm, no foul. 04:57:03.500 --> 04:57:05.220 Didn't take too much damage. 04:57:05.220 --> 04:57:07.500 Kind of see the leader board, Viko Malibuca, 04:57:07.500 --> 04:57:09.580 still tied with Toyota and humor, 04:57:09.580 --> 04:57:11.940 remember Toyota is going to be by himself, 04:57:11.940 --> 04:57:15.180 250 and counting, Darned Demons right there, 04:57:15.180 --> 04:57:18.180 only 16 points away in Pixie and Swigsy, 04:57:18.180 --> 04:57:21.180 not too far away on top of that rotation coming in, 04:57:21.180 --> 04:57:22.900 not necessarily gonna be a far pull, 04:57:22.900 --> 04:57:24.500 but at least it's something that's gonna force 04:57:24.500 --> 04:57:26.020 Viko and Malibuca out of position. 04:57:26.020 --> 04:57:26.860 Viko and Malibuca though, 04:57:26.860 --> 04:57:28.740 they just want that secondary height front side. 04:57:28.740 --> 04:57:30.980 They are going to try and make an attempt 04:57:30.980 --> 04:57:33.020 for the high ground eventually, 04:57:33.020 --> 04:57:34.620 but ultimate height, it almost looked like 04:57:34.620 --> 04:57:37.140 Pete and Foryo might've actually been one tier above 04:57:37.140 --> 04:57:39.340 where we just saw Malibuca and Viko at, 04:57:39.340 --> 04:57:42.220 and this is a crucial moment right now for Spurl, 04:57:42.220 --> 04:57:50.220 Solo yet again trying to hold it down, but Swayze and Pixie are actually going to lead the charge on the ultimate high ground. 04:57:50.220 --> 04:57:56.920 And we saw them fourth place on the overall leader part. Hey, winning here to put them in first to end the day. 04:57:56.920 --> 04:58:02.220 They still have to take down Viko Malibuka, Coyota relatively early, but it's still giving themselves a shot. 04:58:02.220 --> 04:58:05.920 They have all their attention focused right down below Peterpot and Coyote. 04:58:05.920 --> 04:58:09.920 Not sure they got the memo that it's them, but that is their biggest threat at second height. 04:58:09.920 --> 04:58:13.140 Check out Rax and Yannis though making their way up the silver face. 04:58:13.140 --> 04:58:16.700 They've had to use a decent amount of material and Yannis though able to strike. 04:58:16.700 --> 04:58:18.540 Callan has been taken out. 04:58:18.540 --> 04:58:20.220 Rax, Yannis, we end with a refresh. 04:58:20.220 --> 04:58:25.980 Coyona still making his way forward as a solo but playing this far in the back side of the zone. 04:58:25.980 --> 04:58:30.740 It's just going to be so problematic to actually make his way into that next entry point. 04:58:30.740 --> 04:58:33.740 Pete looking up immediately, beaming Swizzy. 04:58:33.740 --> 04:58:34.740 Now off the track. 04:58:34.740 --> 04:58:38.140 Oh, he's making it! Peter Pan does his best! 04:58:38.140 --> 04:58:40.460 Elimination means high ground is open. 04:58:40.460 --> 04:58:44.580 Now you know why they focused them for as long as they have. 04:58:44.580 --> 04:58:47.220 Up until this point, they were the biggest threat. 04:58:47.220 --> 04:58:48.740 But now teams are turning the tables. 04:58:48.740 --> 04:58:52.220 Shark and Teenie are now going to adjust a little bit of tension here. 04:58:52.220 --> 04:58:54.260 They also want that high ground. 04:58:54.260 --> 04:58:58.540 Peterbott, Boyle, Shark and Teenie also need big games here to close out today 04:58:58.540 --> 04:59:01.060 if they have any hope of winning the global championship. 04:59:01.060 --> 04:59:04.260 They're doing their best bad at holding down those scores above them. 04:59:04.260 --> 04:59:06.380 They don't want to allow any kind of weakness 04:59:06.380 --> 04:59:09.720 for piano to play a pickup part, but Boyota has fallen. 04:59:09.720 --> 04:59:13.040 Riddled 270 old already starting to drop 04:59:13.040 --> 04:59:16.180 in that leaderboard stand-in as B and Boya 04:59:16.180 --> 04:59:18.940 now tearing away at these lower layers. 04:59:18.940 --> 04:59:22.220 Welcome, Darm Dinesh, join the conversation. 04:59:22.220 --> 04:59:23.140 Well, I will say Darm, 04:59:23.140 --> 04:59:26.060 because he's been clutching it out here as a solo 04:59:26.060 --> 04:59:29.100 for quite some time inside of the top 12. 04:59:29.100 --> 04:59:30.420 A couple more placement points, 04:59:30.420 --> 04:59:32.020 he will at least get half of them, 04:59:32.020 --> 04:59:33.740 but he has to make his way back. 04:59:33.740 --> 04:59:35.820 Pixie's gonna go down on an O-zone, 04:59:35.820 --> 04:59:37.760 They've got another place, but they go down! 04:59:37.760 --> 04:59:39.360 Gonto takes them out this game! 04:59:39.360 --> 04:59:40.660 It's just so chaotic! 04:59:40.660 --> 04:59:43.300 This could be the big one out of Pete and Poryo! 04:59:43.300 --> 04:59:45.620 First they'll have to survive the Argentinians, though, 04:59:45.620 --> 04:59:48.260 because Lewa and Romero looked like they wanted 04:59:48.260 --> 04:59:50.160 to take a stab now at the high ground. 04:59:50.160 --> 04:59:52.860 But Darm, finally finding a little bit of pocket, 04:59:52.860 --> 04:59:55.900 manages to just escape the pump shot on the end of things, 04:59:55.900 --> 04:59:57.980 but still trapped inside of his own box. 04:59:57.980 --> 04:59:59.740 Looking back, he needs a shot. 04:59:59.740 --> 05:00:01.060 He needs a refresh. 05:00:01.060 --> 05:00:03.460 He needs everything, Jacob, including a miracle. 05:00:03.460 --> 05:00:05.420 We got a punch to sew those down, running around. 05:00:05.420 --> 05:00:07.420 Let's see Pauliogo go down in the feed. 05:00:07.420 --> 05:00:08.620 Bridgeroads getting dropped. 05:00:08.620 --> 05:00:11.700 Fiko, Malibuca still alive side by side as well. 05:00:11.700 --> 05:00:14.140 Yanis and Rats do get eliminated by Romero. 05:00:14.140 --> 05:00:15.700 And they shock wave towards the front. 05:00:15.700 --> 05:00:17.700 They're trying to take advantage of everybody. 05:00:17.700 --> 05:00:19.700 And they're still falling down the side of the mountain. 05:00:19.700 --> 05:00:21.940 Peter Bond has a haymaker shot. 05:00:21.940 --> 05:00:24.580 Almost everybody in this game, Tocco, is soloed. 05:00:24.580 --> 05:00:25.900 How can the team alive? 05:00:25.900 --> 05:00:27.780 Arsora's got one. 05:00:27.780 --> 05:00:30.900 And Twi's going to be the one to put an end to it here. 05:00:30.900 --> 05:00:33.100 Shark and Teenie. 05:00:33.100 --> 05:00:37.100 They've got so many materials to work with, they can take their sweet time. 05:00:37.100 --> 05:00:42.100 Shark and Teenie have been waiting for the moment to start, and they find it in Game 6. 05:00:42.100 --> 05:00:48.100 And you poke the fair, one and two many times, they will start to bite back. 05:00:48.100 --> 05:00:52.100 Shark and Teenie feeling out the lobby most of the day. 05:00:52.100 --> 05:00:56.100 They kept it relatively closed, and now they have closed out day one, 05:00:56.100 --> 05:00:58.100 with a huge gap in the air. 05:00:58.100 --> 05:01:02.980 head that relatively close and now they have closed out day one with a huge 05:01:02.980 --> 05:01:10.700 momentum shift and a victory royale on top. We have been waiting for this moment 05:01:10.700 --> 05:01:16.700 from you two all day. Shark what's it like to wrap up day one with a victory royale? 05:01:16.700 --> 05:01:23.100 It's got to feel great but has it felt bad at any point today, Teenie? 05:01:23.100 --> 05:01:26.100 Oh I mean we're just gonna have to focus on tomorrow, that's it. 05:01:26.100 --> 05:01:28.820 What do you think has been difficult for you guys today? 05:01:29.940 --> 05:01:33.100 Just the difference of the lobby, like, we've got further up, I guess. 05:01:33.580 --> 05:01:38.140 And so, do you feel like you've got enough experience of this lobby now 05:01:38.140 --> 05:01:40.180 to prepare to win tomorrow's shark? 05:01:40.580 --> 05:01:42.060 Yeah, exactly. 05:01:42.580 --> 05:01:44.100 So, what's the plan now? 05:01:44.100 --> 05:01:47.260 What do you do to get the game plan on form for tomorrow? 05:01:47.260 --> 05:01:48.540 Do you go talk to Clesi? 05:01:49.020 --> 05:01:50.020 We're going to see. 05:01:50.020 --> 05:01:51.500 We are going to see. 05:01:52.100 --> 05:01:54.060 Guys, it was worth the wait. 05:01:54.060 --> 05:01:55.700 Congratulations on the victory, Roy. 05:01:55.700 --> 05:01:59.500 Yeah please Antwerp, give it up for Shark and Teeny. 05:01:59.500 --> 05:02:11.980 Alert, alert, this is not a drill, Shark and Teeny, just one game number six of the global 05:02:11.980 --> 05:02:12.980 championship. 05:02:12.980 --> 05:02:18.780 Kelly, I don't know, this is a crazy thing right, it's a two day format, I think if 05:02:18.780 --> 05:02:22.220 this was just a one day format it would be over right, I would be like, I think I 05:02:22.220 --> 05:02:23.220 Yeah! 05:02:23.220 --> 05:02:24.220 That is. 05:02:24.220 --> 05:02:25.220 It's not. 05:02:25.220 --> 05:02:26.220 It's crazy. 05:02:26.220 --> 05:02:29.940 Really quickly before I can let Kelly Lee take over, hey, Fortnite fam, if you want to vote 05:02:29.940 --> 05:02:33.660 for next year's format, I need you to go into legislative landing right now. 05:02:33.660 --> 05:02:36.660 When this show's over, voting concludes! 05:02:36.660 --> 05:02:37.660 Get in! 05:02:37.660 --> 05:02:38.660 Do us a trios! 05:02:38.660 --> 05:02:40.820 You tell us, Kelly Lee, that was a crazy... 05:02:40.820 --> 05:02:44.220 Yeah, no, that was quite crazy. 05:02:44.220 --> 05:02:46.580 Congratulations, of course, to Shark and Deanie. 05:02:46.580 --> 05:02:50.500 Better late than never in that interview gave me so much more confidence. 05:02:50.500 --> 05:02:52.940 He honestly didn't even seem to care about the victory royale. 05:02:52.940 --> 05:02:54.620 He's like, I'm ready for tomorrow. 05:02:54.620 --> 05:02:56.820 We are going to prepare for tomorrow. 05:02:56.820 --> 05:02:58.660 And obviously with Queezy as their coach, 05:02:58.660 --> 05:03:00.740 you know that he's already coming up with some plans, 05:03:00.740 --> 05:03:02.100 coming up with some strategies, 05:03:02.100 --> 05:03:05.100 so that day two looks so much better for this duo. 05:03:05.100 --> 05:03:05.940 That's unlike them. 05:03:05.940 --> 05:03:07.020 They usually really animates it 05:03:07.020 --> 05:03:09.220 and excites it after a win, right, usually? 05:03:09.220 --> 05:03:10.060 No, they're not. 05:03:10.060 --> 05:03:10.900 That's sorry. 05:03:10.900 --> 05:03:11.740 That's the wrong duo. 05:03:11.740 --> 05:03:13.340 I'm pretty excited about these guys though for tomorrow. 05:03:13.340 --> 05:03:14.740 I mean, they're the team 05:03:14.740 --> 05:03:16.780 that so many people had high expectations 05:03:16.780 --> 05:03:18.020 of coming into this lap. 05:03:18.020 --> 05:03:19.620 So many people had high expectations 05:03:19.620 --> 05:03:25.300 them coming into the summit. Same with EWC as well. Always, they have so many high expectations 05:03:25.300 --> 05:03:28.620 on them and it just haven't delivered today. So I'm really intrigued now to see what they 05:03:28.620 --> 05:03:32.820 can do now tomorrow in those six games because they're not necessarily going to have all 05:03:32.820 --> 05:03:36.820 of those expectations on their shoulders. They still will to an extent, but because 05:03:36.820 --> 05:03:41.260 of how they perform today, not to the standard we'd expect, maybe now this sort of performance 05:03:41.260 --> 05:03:44.500 will give them that leapfrog for their tomorrow as well. 05:03:44.500 --> 05:03:47.500 This is what we expect from them though, making sure that they're grabbing great 05:03:47.500 --> 05:03:53.980 eliminated, but doing it at such a good pace that they're kind of able to recover, find their footing again, and then go for another Elim. 05:03:53.980 --> 05:04:02.500 Six Elims onto Tini as well, almost ten eliminations, and of course those 65 points is going to get them a hundred points or nearly that. 05:04:02.500 --> 05:04:09.500 And obviously that is going to shoot them up the leaderboard. We had some big names go down a little early in that game. 05:04:09.500 --> 05:04:15.220 And some other teams, some other teams that we've kind of been waiting for, kind of been expecting doing well. 05:04:15.220 --> 05:04:23.420 Obviously, I gotta talk about that incredible Peter bot jump up into high ground getting the elimination onto swizzing and then stealing height away 05:04:23.420 --> 05:04:26.260 But obviously Lou and Romero then stole height away from them 05:04:26.260 --> 05:04:30.720 Just so many teams that I love to see kind of go for that aggression on the high ground because it's been a 05:04:31.340 --> 05:04:33.660 Relatively relaxed high ground over the last couple games 05:04:34.540 --> 05:04:40.540 Shut us the production for getting those shots there. Yeah, Malibu got brutal stuff, but Valley. It's okay, bro 05:04:40.540 --> 05:04:45.500 It's okay. You have time to kind of take a step back and come back in tomorrow even stronger 05:04:45.740 --> 05:04:48.660 We got to take a look at these standings. You've got to see how things are settled 05:04:48.660 --> 05:04:51.580 So remember we played six games today. This is what we're coming into 05:04:52.540 --> 05:04:53.980 tomorrow 05:04:53.980 --> 05:05:00.100 Malibuca and Vico currently leading the pack first place mini-minor 05:05:00.940 --> 05:05:04.540 We're in trouble. Sorry, baby. Travel, darren, darren. 05:05:04.540 --> 05:05:09.540 Oh, I hope so. I mean, you know just for the law just for the narrative what a story that would be 05:05:09.540 --> 05:05:13.660 But I think those shots you mentioned it just there is that you can really tell him because yes, they're in first place 05:05:13.660 --> 05:05:19.200 Yes, they're a decent chunk ahead of that second place and you can sort of see the different personalities playing out because like yeah 05:05:19.200 --> 05:05:23.540 Let's go for it with first place on the day one shape a hand Malibu could not happy with it at all 05:05:23.540 --> 05:05:25.180 He sort of brings it down a notch 05:05:25.180 --> 05:05:28.780 And I think that level of sort of that balance of excitement 05:05:28.780 --> 05:05:33.100 But also that calmness that this duo have in between the sort of dynamic will help them 05:05:33.580 --> 05:05:36.420 Improved for tomorrow as well because it hasn't been their best day 05:05:36.420 --> 05:05:39.260 of course they haven't been able to find the highs that we'd expect from this is 05:05:39.260 --> 05:05:42.340 what I was talking about right here look at that just a complete just a 05:05:42.340 --> 05:05:46.460 complete difference in the reaction Kelle. Yeah as Mali the IGL to be able to 05:05:46.460 --> 05:05:50.420 kind of run that low ground when he barely had anything and to still do as 05:05:50.420 --> 05:05:54.300 well as he did but I love that I'd love to see that emotion from Alibuka 05:05:54.300 --> 05:05:57.900 because he's not okay with second best third best whatever staying up top he 05:05:57.900 --> 05:06:01.740 wants to make sure that he's doing the best every single time and once 05:06:01.740 --> 05:06:05.820 again Vika Malibuka with zero victory royales but somehow the most 05:06:05.820 --> 05:06:12.040 replacement points out of any team right here just goes to show how important consistency is on this leaderboard. 05:06:12.040 --> 05:06:20.460 It's just passion, right? It's all passion. You'd look at that game and you'd think, wow, in the situation they were in that game, they got a top five. 05:06:20.460 --> 05:06:28.840 That's incredibly impressive. And that's not enough for Malibu. Right? Like, they're both thinking we could get this figure out. 05:06:28.840 --> 05:06:30.920 We could walk away not only global champions, 05:06:30.920 --> 05:06:35.240 but be the first duo that three back to back land wins. 05:06:35.240 --> 05:06:37.600 The pressure is on for them. 05:06:37.600 --> 05:06:40.160 Let's turn attention back to these standings. 05:06:40.160 --> 05:06:43.360 I mean, look at this right behind them as well. 05:06:43.360 --> 05:06:46.800 Yuma and Koyota, we saw the two VRs from them earlier on. 05:06:46.800 --> 05:06:48.200 Kelly, I can't even lie. 05:06:48.200 --> 05:06:49.840 We all were freaking out. 05:06:49.840 --> 05:06:50.800 Oh, 100%. 05:06:50.800 --> 05:06:52.160 The entire audience is freaking out. 05:06:52.160 --> 05:06:55.440 When have we ever seen a smaller region team 05:06:55.440 --> 05:06:57.960 get two victory royals in a single day, 05:06:57.960 --> 05:07:00.560 little victory royale on the global stage. 05:07:00.560 --> 05:07:02.240 Of course we are all freaking out. 05:07:02.240 --> 05:07:04.240 They did unfortunately go down a little early 05:07:04.240 --> 05:07:06.400 and that's why we do see them drop down to third place 05:07:06.400 --> 05:07:07.800 where they've been holding first place 05:07:07.800 --> 05:07:09.320 for quite a long time there. 05:07:09.320 --> 05:07:12.760 But still plenty of opportunities for me though. 05:07:12.760 --> 05:07:14.080 Sorry production, I'm gonna make you go back 05:07:14.080 --> 05:07:16.000 onto that leaderboard because we have to talk 05:07:16.000 --> 05:07:17.880 about Shark and Teenie of course. 05:07:17.880 --> 05:07:21.000 I think 15 placements if I'm not mistaken 05:07:21.000 --> 05:07:23.080 to get into sixth place right now. 05:07:23.080 --> 05:07:26.680 That is insane just how much a game can swing. 05:07:26.680 --> 05:07:28.600 And this isn't like, oh, game two, game three. 05:07:28.600 --> 05:07:30.640 This is halfway through the tournament. 05:07:30.640 --> 05:07:33.160 And this is a scary position for Shark and Sinead to be in, 05:07:33.160 --> 05:07:36.200 because we know what they can do in individual moments. 05:07:36.200 --> 05:07:38.320 We know what they can do in individual games. 05:07:38.320 --> 05:07:39.760 But give them six games tomorrow, 05:07:39.760 --> 05:07:42.120 where they're capable of having many of those end games 05:07:42.120 --> 05:07:43.760 that they've been having today, as well, 05:07:43.760 --> 05:07:45.040 and what we've seen them in the history. 05:07:45.040 --> 05:07:47.320 If they could just replicate what they did there in game six, 05:07:47.320 --> 05:07:48.160 they're on for a winner here. 05:07:48.160 --> 05:07:50.680 Is Golden and Ozone the highest performing 05:07:50.680 --> 05:07:52.400 North American team right now? 05:07:52.400 --> 05:07:53.200 What a time. 05:07:53.200 --> 05:07:54.840 They weren't even playing together 05:07:54.840 --> 05:07:56.440 at the start of this season. 05:07:56.440 --> 05:07:58.440 whatever conversation they needed to have, 05:07:58.440 --> 05:08:00.640 whatever synergy they needed to rework, 05:08:00.640 --> 05:08:02.920 obviously worked so well for them. 05:08:02.920 --> 05:08:04.880 Golden and Ozone, especially towards the end 05:08:04.880 --> 05:08:07.560 the last couple of weeks, have been looking so good 05:08:07.560 --> 05:08:10.000 for them to be folding up NA on their back. 05:08:10.000 --> 05:08:12.960 I don't know if anyone could have predicted that though. 05:08:12.960 --> 05:08:14.360 Yeah, and really quickly, 05:08:14.360 --> 05:08:15.640 I love that we've kind of been highlighting 05:08:15.640 --> 05:08:17.520 all of the little differences and all that, 05:08:17.520 --> 05:08:20.240 but when I do look at even like Shark and Pee, 05:08:20.240 --> 05:08:21.520 just double back really quickly. 05:08:21.520 --> 05:08:23.400 This is the team we all thought 05:08:23.400 --> 05:08:25.200 would go ahead and walk away at the win. 05:08:25.200 --> 05:08:27.160 They're at 2.19, right? 05:08:27.160 --> 05:08:28.800 They're not that far behind 05:08:28.800 --> 05:08:30.560 Diegler-Malibuk in first place, 05:08:30.560 --> 05:08:32.960 which is kind of insane to think 05:08:32.960 --> 05:08:36.320 we come back tomorrow for six games 05:08:36.320 --> 05:08:37.880 where they've had time to ball review 05:08:37.880 --> 05:08:40.080 and come up with a new plan. 05:08:40.080 --> 05:08:41.840 When it comes to Diegler-Malibuk, 05:08:41.840 --> 05:08:43.360 it just amps up the pressure 05:08:43.360 --> 05:08:45.240 because remember, yeah, we talked about it at Summit. 05:08:45.240 --> 05:08:46.320 They didn't get a victory. 05:08:46.320 --> 05:08:47.720 They were a really consistent member. 05:08:47.720 --> 05:08:48.640 That's only eight games. 05:08:48.640 --> 05:08:50.600 They've got another four games on top of that 05:08:50.600 --> 05:08:51.440 for this weekend. 05:08:51.440 --> 05:08:53.040 So it makes it even more difficult 05:08:53.040 --> 05:08:54.400 to play that level of gameplay 05:08:54.400 --> 05:08:57.680 when they can have to do it for so, so long. 05:08:57.680 --> 05:08:59.000 And I was looking there on the leaderboard, 05:08:59.000 --> 05:09:00.280 Swizzy and Pixie, of course, 05:09:00.280 --> 05:09:01.480 they had a decent game right there. 05:09:01.480 --> 05:09:02.320 They're playing higher. 05:09:02.320 --> 05:09:04.000 I thought, yeah, finally, this is the time 05:09:04.000 --> 05:09:06.160 for them to get that win and really show us 05:09:06.160 --> 05:09:07.680 what they can do on this stage. 05:09:07.680 --> 05:09:08.520 But it just crumbled. 05:09:08.520 --> 05:09:09.760 There's a couple of those height teams now 05:09:09.760 --> 05:09:10.680 that aren't doing as well. 05:09:10.680 --> 05:09:13.600 So that could cause them problems up on high as well. 05:09:13.600 --> 05:09:14.640 Crazy tough, crazy tough. 05:09:14.640 --> 05:09:16.040 We gotta do something really special here. 05:09:16.040 --> 05:09:17.720 We gotta take a look at our hot toys, 05:09:17.720 --> 05:09:19.320 hot plays of the day. 05:09:19.320 --> 05:09:21.680 Shout out to our friends over at Hot Toys. 05:09:21.680 --> 05:09:24.000 No surprise, I did also jump the gun. 05:09:24.000 --> 05:09:25.260 We got to talk about Koyota and Yuma. 05:09:25.260 --> 05:09:29.040 Just replay after replay from the duo. 05:09:29.040 --> 05:09:30.640 Just again, so incredible. 05:09:30.640 --> 05:09:33.760 I think it's been such an incredible just first day, 05:09:33.760 --> 05:09:34.600 right guys? 05:09:34.600 --> 05:09:38.720 I can see the variety of play styles of region, 05:09:38.720 --> 05:09:40.800 stepping up, getting victory out. 05:09:40.800 --> 05:09:42.240 Teams we thought would just be like, 05:09:42.240 --> 05:09:43.720 oh yeah, they're going to go ahead and walk away with it. 05:09:43.720 --> 05:09:44.560 Nope. 05:09:44.560 --> 05:09:47.960 I mean, we've got a competition on our hands. 05:09:47.960 --> 05:09:52.120 Yuma and Koyota have just been so good from high ground. 05:09:52.120 --> 05:09:55.560 And fortunately for them, these were definitely some of the games where a lot of other teams 05:09:55.560 --> 05:09:58.960 were kind of just trying to feel out the lobby, sticking to the low and mid ground and going 05:09:58.960 --> 05:10:00.720 for those engagements as well. 05:10:00.720 --> 05:10:04.680 But I do not want that to discredit Coyota and Yuma because they had it so confidently. 05:10:04.680 --> 05:10:08.080 Because they were able to make sure that their high ground was never getting shot, 05:10:08.080 --> 05:10:10.760 but also getting eliminations as well on the high ground. 05:10:10.760 --> 05:10:12.240 That's a laugh up there to me. 05:10:12.240 --> 05:10:15.160 So I was just wondering, anyone knows, this is a K-pop dance. 05:10:15.160 --> 05:10:16.160 This is from a tease. 05:10:16.160 --> 05:10:19.280 I love the fact that Coyota is bringing that to the audience. 05:10:19.280 --> 05:10:21.160 He looks like he's having so much fun. 05:10:21.160 --> 05:10:24.760 Even when they went down early, I think in Game 4, he was still smiling and laughing. 05:10:24.760 --> 05:10:31.160 Exactly. They're going to need all of that energy now for tomorrow, because this completely changes their complexion and the sort of framing for their weekend, 05:10:31.160 --> 05:10:36.760 because I'm sure even themselves weren't expecting them to be on this level at this position currently right now. 05:10:36.760 --> 05:10:38.660 So it sort of changes the framing for tomorrow. 05:10:38.660 --> 05:10:41.460 They were very expected and maybe need a little bit of a comeback come day, too. 05:10:41.460 --> 05:10:47.960 But now they're in a position where they need to hold on to it, which a lot of these smaller region teams is not a position that we find themselves in very often. 05:10:47.960 --> 05:10:50.420 So as much as today was super exciting to see, 05:10:50.420 --> 05:10:52.080 I want to see what they're going to do tomorrow. 05:10:52.080 --> 05:10:53.240 What are they going to bring? 05:10:53.240 --> 05:10:54.840 That's what's crazy, right? 05:10:54.840 --> 05:10:57.520 And I think I was talking to Vivid right before this last game. 05:10:57.520 --> 05:10:59.360 And he was kind of thinking and calling out, like, OK, 05:10:59.360 --> 05:11:02.320 what position in previous LAN environments 05:11:02.320 --> 05:11:05.400 has the winner come out on day two, come back to win? 05:11:05.400 --> 05:11:08.120 He went best for back his third place, right? 05:11:08.120 --> 05:11:12.000 So tomorrow, really anything can go. 05:11:12.000 --> 05:11:14.320 And what's crazier is just think about how many games. 05:11:14.320 --> 05:11:16.280 Like, we were like, oh, the number one team, 05:11:16.280 --> 05:11:17.840 they're in first place, they come to the game. 05:11:17.840 --> 05:11:19.560 all day immediately were eliminated. 05:11:19.560 --> 05:11:23.360 And now the entire landscape, the entire leaderboard shifts. 05:11:23.360 --> 05:11:25.720 You know, I really think that there is actually 05:11:25.720 --> 05:11:27.120 an interesting discussion to be had 05:11:27.120 --> 05:11:30.080 on how smaller region teams are able to easily 05:11:30.080 --> 05:11:32.600 adapt better to a mixed lobby like this. 05:11:32.600 --> 05:11:35.360 In EU, they practice and play the same lobbies 05:11:35.360 --> 05:11:37.320 over and over and over and over again. 05:11:37.320 --> 05:11:38.600 So they're used to, oh, this person's 05:11:38.600 --> 05:11:39.480 going to be rotating this way. 05:11:39.480 --> 05:11:40.720 They're going to be playing like this. 05:11:40.720 --> 05:11:42.280 But by going into a global settings, 05:11:42.280 --> 05:11:44.240 and we heard it from Teenian Shark themselves, 05:11:44.240 --> 05:11:46.720 this is not the lobby that we were expecting. 05:11:46.720 --> 05:11:50.840 So by having these smaller region teams kind of have a bit more of a haphazard 05:11:50.840 --> 05:11:52.280 dip cubs throughout the weeks. 05:11:52.280 --> 05:11:57.000 I think they're kind of able to handle this inconsistency in the lobby so much more. 05:11:57.000 --> 05:12:01.040 And remember historically there hasn't been that much pressure on these smaller region teams as well. 05:12:01.040 --> 05:12:02.720 So they can come into it with a little bit more freedom. 05:12:02.720 --> 05:12:05.560 You look at Shaq and Sini, yes they have that aura about them. 05:12:05.560 --> 05:12:09.680 Yes they try and act calm in interviews but I'm sure they'll be feeling a lot of that pressure now. 05:12:09.680 --> 05:12:12.520 Because remember Shaq, this is only like a third LAN ever. 05:12:12.520 --> 05:12:16.240 Like you know all these expectations must be weighing so heavily on their shoulders. 05:12:16.240 --> 05:12:17.840 and for some of these smaller region teams, 05:12:17.840 --> 05:12:19.840 they don't necessarily have that as of right now, 05:12:19.840 --> 05:12:21.200 maybe in the future that might change. 05:12:21.200 --> 05:12:24.040 But right now, this is a prime opportunity 05:12:24.040 --> 05:12:25.520 for a team like Toyota and Yuma 05:12:25.520 --> 05:12:28.320 to really take tomorrow and really just go for it. 05:12:28.320 --> 05:12:29.160 I love that. 05:12:29.160 --> 05:12:31.600 Such an incredible breakdown from both of you guys. 05:12:31.600 --> 05:12:35.000 Fortnite Fam, that wraps up day number one. 05:12:35.000 --> 05:12:36.560 Now listen to me, Fortnite Fam, 05:12:36.560 --> 05:12:39.040 I'm gonna stall this as long as I can before I say goodbye 05:12:39.040 --> 05:12:40.120 because you still have time to jump 05:12:40.120 --> 05:12:41.080 into Legends Landing right now. 05:12:41.080 --> 05:12:42.640 And you can vote if you want Duos or Shios 05:12:42.640 --> 05:12:44.280 to jump into Legends Landing right now 05:12:44.280 --> 05:12:49.520 and vote, duos or trios as we start to prepare for the goodbye. 05:12:49.520 --> 05:12:51.320 Till tomorrow, we love you. 05:12:51.320 --> 05:12:52.800 I'm going to wait. 05:12:52.800 --> 05:12:53.760 Keep yourself safe. 05:12:53.760 --> 05:12:55.360 No, come back. 05:12:55.360 --> 05:12:56.520 Let's see you in battle, boss. 05:12:56.520 --> 05:12:57.020 Bye. 05:12:57.020 --> 05:12:57.520 Go, boss. 05:12:57.520 --> 05:12:58.020 Go, boss. 05:12:58.020 --> 05:12:58.520 Keep it. 05:12:58.520 --> 05:12:59.020 Keep it.
