F
Really?
Still F?
Oh we're back? Okay, perfect.
Why is everyone freaking the fuck out?
Hey, calm down guys.
Calm the fuck down.
What do you think about Furia? They're very good. They like heavy abuse Wele, but they
do it in a really good, like, really impressive way. They're, this, the scaling is very good.
the clip? What do you mean? You guys miss that? He just said it doesn't look like they trust each other.
It's all he said. But sure.
That's it. And before that it was just like Verdi and Kalenzin having like a little argument because Verdi is like, you guys aren't running in with me. It feels like I'm getting baited.
Like you guys are not, you're not swinging with me talking to Kalenzin. Kalenzin was like, bro, I was doing this, I was doing that or something.
That's why I wasn't swinging with you. And it was just like tension, you know? This is a lot of tension.
Just shit happens.
Yeah, it sucks to lose, man.
That's just how it is when you lose every single team.
To some degree, right?
That the teams that are the teams that lose will have moments like that throughout the
year.
That's just how it is.
It's just most of it.
If not all of it, you guys won't see in documentaries and stuff or whatever clips.
rare that you'll like or ex will post that stuff. Azure. Thank you to tier one, man. Thanks for two
months and blown. Thank you. No one can top T1 dog. That's what I mean, but every team that loses
will have that is what I'm telling you. Every single team that has like every team is built to win,
right like most teams are unless it's like an obvious like sentinels kind of rebuild year
every single team is built to win but even the rebuild your teams everyone is trying to win
and when you lose as badly as loud lost
there's going to be tension no matter what like if there isn't something's wrong like there has
has to be tension. So yeah, I think it's very normal like I've seen way worse. I'm not like
surprised how important those are as well. I think we also have to hear from the fanatic
camp of things because this was looking a little bit of a whoa so well let's check in
with their coach confession as well. Do you think after a map it's a good idea to talk
about a previous map and you're still in game last time you played you had trouble on the
a tech side with the sage cop can we expect the change today in short yes that's it you'll
have to wait until the second map to find out um I don't think it's good to go for a map one to
map two like in between maps you go outside right so after map one ends you got a bad map one whatever
I don't think it's good to like, I don't know, there's no way to have the most productive conversation
other than to just talk about the next map. The only way you're going to have a productive like
time out there in between maps is talking about the next map. So yeah, I think talking about the
map previous, you can talk about certain things like concepts like Verdi said, hey, I just don't
feel like we're like running in together. I feel like people are baiting. I feel like I'm alone out
there. Those are generalized statements. That's, yeah, yes, he's talking about the last map,
but it's so generalized that it's okay to kind of say just to the team like, hey, this is how I'm
feeling and I want us to play more together. And I think that's fine. But obviously it also
matters how you say it and how he said it was like pretty obviously he's like very upset.
Eddie for us, we're actually going to be seeing Rukzik play the Viper, which honestly, I'm not mad about money.
I don't know how you feel about it.
No, it's Viper. The thing that strikes me here is, so should one, Yoru.
Like, that's the strange thing here. When you've got both Rukzik and Hero, Hero on Sofa as well, like,
something throws a little bit off with the roster. We expect Hero and Rukzik, and those are the players that we keep talking about,
and maybe kind of put on that more reserved slot into this composition.
And then on the other side, Vikash on Jet! Okay?
You sound very happy, very excited.
Uh, why is that? Okay, I mean, Alfa...
Alfa, Alfa, Viper is kind of playing into the whole, like, Alfa being on this more reserved, sentimental answer.
Sorry, but because I'm Jett.
Yeah, I... Not the KO. The Jett.
I mean...
Do you want to talk about it, Mini?
I don't know. I don't know. He's not a player that I consider as a second-
No, I think this is fine. He has played Jett in the past, I think back to like his Challengers days he was playing.
So two years ago.
Yeah, I mean, before he joined Jett, I mean.
On a team with Alphier, and Alphier has to play Viper, Alphie is human right now.
He's like a golfing Viper.
Maybe you can ask him that.
We've got two other Judas in my team, and I've got to play Viper.
Ask him, I will be.
Yeah.
He won't be happy.
There we go, that's one of the questions that we'll discuss later.
But they will see, there's some eyes around Viper's this game, and so she will, honestly,
because they're taking up slots here, for what could be other players in the team.
Alright, well I guess we're going to have to wait and see how this competition is going to play out,
but at least you know, Fanatic's coach keeping his promise.
It is going to be a little different, a little surprising, no sage here,
but we're ready to head into our second map of the series.
Breeze coming up next with Mitch and Tom.
This is a 2-0, mark my words.
Thank you very much, yes.
I'm also extremely dry right now, man.
Third, Fnatic winning out the first pick. It's a bad sign, Tom, after we got out of the first half.
But now B had a hell of a resurgence. Do you think they have any tanks to beat Fnatic here on the pitch?
I feel like they just try to have a laugh when they step outside rather than sitting on what happened.
We see teams able to bounce back easier, but outside talk has very little to do with what ends up happening.
I don't think it's that serious.
Personally, because I've seen worse, I've seen good convo's, bad convo's, I've been a part of good convo's, mid-mash, bad convo's, whatever.
I think most players, especially the experienced ones, are able to forget and just move on, and then move on to bad too.
But you might be right. Psychologically, maybe it's easier to have a fun conversation outside and just breathe.
of things and so she went an agraral except yeah I love just talking about the
next map a chamber like gang instead of harping on the past face I think it's
gonna be hard to deal with but it's not always easy to do that because emotions
are still involved you know you're a robot we are might be the most
sometimes people have to like and then the same what they're thinking or else
that this is gonna fucking eat at them it's weird well yeah I mean yeah the
The comp you're saying the combo fanatic side is weird that the choice of who's playing. Yes, exactly
Cuz the competition itself. I think the most people will be like, well, I mean it seems like it could work
I don't see glaring. I see players like believe maps punch balls
Like this strange and I think we haven't seen
Badman difficult to find players that are that comfortable to to
Emotional game brother in between maps like solid flexes like that are usually like maximum one protein
I don't I don't see it feels like it would make sense the other way around but there has to be something
whether it's in scrims or
Maybe even a hunger. Maybe the cash is like
Oh on T6 then that have a heavy rookie team. What will the players gain by building experience?
What specific skills will they be able to gain through experience?
Um
I guess the main one is just getting used to the stage and getting used to the atmosphere that they're playing in
instead of like at the beginning when a lot of players that are rookies will kind of get overwhelmed by it, not overwhelmed, but they'll feel
a type of way that's different from how they would be playing at home, which could be really good for them or really bad depending on what kind of player you are
They would also gain the ability to communicate the way they do at home and have more of a voice over time.
Instead of just being quiet, because there's times when you play the game since they're rookie.
It's much easier when you have the experience on stage with a team.
You'll be able to gain that voice on the team as well.
And jet was that guy's most played agent of
Outside of that just comforts and vcs career. So again, it's the main one has that hunger of put me on jet
Let me show you what I can do. It's not about the complex. It's the doubt that he can play about in the mouth
Yeah, exactly, which I doubt that of most people you take back them. No do list
No wolf gang you're fucking dumb
big boots to fill
Fnatic attacks I'd start hero has embedded himself in elbow and they do not know
Wow
Double top look at wow
That's right hero
They look even a little bit aware of how but his impact why it's not going anywhere
Fnatic
We shot for sure and no ground really to speak of traded out for those losses
This one's going to be a difficult fight back, an opportunity, but sociable not going to
overplay his hand, especially when they've got Rooksick locked in on the other side.
Austin goes window.
He's going to walk about again, an opportunity, but the shot's just not connecting.
I mean, it's pretty good how they're playing this.
The crashes.
Wow, they've split them up.
Wow, Austin.
Austin's up and coming on the clock.
Austin, you're a bit of a time for crashes, and there you go.
There you go. There you go. Got there in the end and then he goes back a man. This is winnable
It's a Rooksik though. He's nice
It's winnable. I'm telling you this is winnable
That's a problem Navi you're closing in like it's not winnable
It's Rooksik with a phenomenal shot
Wow! Nice shot
And the Taliyah nicely done
Now they find themselves the pistol under their feet
Thank you to the rain man. Appreciate it
Welcome people's the rookies usually get funnel vision on stage
And look at the game only from one perspective
It's more that they don't talk about
They don't try to communicate what they think should happen. That's usually the biggest like rookie mistake is
Stay too quiet in situations where they can just speak up and say like hey
I think I know what to do here
Um and contributed to like the mid-round or whatever
But like overtime players get better at that
Exploration from them John
Yeah, kayak almost got a kill somehow. That's a decent bit of damage done, but no weapons on the floor for now be just yet
And even if there was one as long as Shows close enough by to pick it up, although he is on the B side
They don't want to be the reason they lose the run, yeah, they don't want to take responsibility
exactly.
But when you're an experienced player, it doesn't matter if you're a caller, dualist,
in the shooter, it doesn't matter.
You're always going to call.
Because you already passed that point.
Like, worrying about whether, like, oh, like, my call will lose this or what, or whatever.
I think the
Most excited me going in is how social was gonna be on that defensive sniper. I think that he is
Incredible at this sort of role
It's one of the sort of almost extra pressures that have put onto someone like feel it when you kind of look at social
Won't go if I put him on feel his roles does he do a better job because at times this guy has just
Our modest problems very good. You just said what he's doing which is ideal what you want from the bill is
Why you have him on this agent?
He's just having to do this to tell us his like, players where he's playing and what he needs from them.
And that's basically the two things you want from a Urduous.
Playing at the back of the piece!
Aw, geez.
That's down though. They could get bonus here.
Big kill.
A very valuable pick for Fnatic. Remember, there's a red alpha.
also got it. Ah, the fanatic special is stocking for it. Ah, yeah, you're dead also. You're
dead. Nice shot. 30.
HV gets both.
Fuck it, just give me a third map then.
I'm down.
I'm still in the final of the Carbocup, it's big, yeah I know.
People were making fun of how they were celebrating.
And I'm like, oh my goodness, I love these tiers.
The fact that both of those early fights are going in the direction of that deadly duo
Not a great sign
How the hell are celebrating your shamelessly begging those fuck themselves
Chelsea fucking dog shit ass team who gives a fuck I wish she fucking took off a shirt and started running around the stadium
Ended up losing the map because of it this time they have at least started off with a pick-on to sociable
the
rest of the plan is to have the right to the fact that there's already a case of him to the focus on the game, it's an e-
They're looking for that fight. Drawing right at you.
It's a 5v3. 5v2.
They're rotating in, crossing by this angle.
It shouts currently on.
Oh my god, this is terrorism.
They get full eco.
And that should be an easy cleanup for Bozer.
They get full eco.
Flawless?
Lawless.
Lawless?
The rifle's being recovered across the board.
This is far from an easy recovery on the round.
Two, three.
Oh, not the loudest stuff.
We're trying to play the final, city.
Young Gunner, they're either for admin.
the same on the defense as well freeing up kayak to be a little bit more
you see our trophies are we still living in the past
I like that
very aggressive early star out from feeling a tough one take
that's like annoying as fuck what he just did that guy
they keep pushing on that though I mean look at the position Rooks it's gone for
low key hard to clear it's like re-clear all of this if you're a fanatic takes a
lot of time thankfully for them they don't give a fuck about the time let's walk
there for a moment because the angle is being held by sociable. So he goes back but now
sociable is the one that has to hold back control. He's already sent his decoy out and
it was broken. Now he goes walking forward. They don't expect that. What would they? A
frankly foolish move a lot of the time from sociable but that's exactly why it works.
We saw it in the last map with the sky flashes. He's very good with timing.
really switched the game. He's on both. That's fine. So 32, even if he kind of threw.
Ourself's last view. Guys, what are the results of this year? Can we talk about that or not?
year right now right now in the present. What's happening?
I shot my boaster okay back to even footing. A smoke off. Oh another player spot.
Are we not going to talk about what's happening right now?
It's only Ruxik who's unknown but he's wrapping around.
Player standing.
An alpha finding that shot to 1v1 after the pick.
You need to see something that isn't over yet?
No reveal.
Brav.
Alpha here.
Reelating for the jump up.
An execution.
Is your team going to win the league?
That's my question to you.
Catching back up now. It was a thrifty round followed by this. They're just one away
Frustrating I you get these early advantages. I think social definitely was a bit too greedy. It is the reason you put him on
This role is because you want him to get aggressive you want him to take space, but oh my god
They actually lost
Come on, me here!
Ah, ha ha!
You're picking it again!
Wait, Navi lost the surround.
The difference is, while in warm-ups through those teams, honestly, like, Navi were sat down there, locked in, tech-checked, making sure everything's working.
Fanatic, I think they went through, like, the Spotify top 100.
They were singing away.
Alright, one by one. Let's go.
Earlier on, the Vibe's all the time.
Just die one by one and we'll fucking end.
Cardinals of the score. For now, it's serving them well. Climbing back into this game.
One away from Navi, and an opening pick with sociable punished on that mid aggression.
It's Navi they're left with.
Really the...
Ball in their court.
I have a question, Chah. Why the American streamers don't pay attention to their mobs?
High-paw, Crescent.
to secure being used. Very grassy position already, but Becatch is going to be taken up by Filu,
a good flower to make that a little bit easier and hero caught on the cross.
I mean, Navi should be a 5-1. This isn't just disgusting.
Reason or rhyme to attempt this.
Especially with economy so poor for Navi at this stage.
Much more direct approach from Fnatic. And these are the sort of rounds that I feel like I enjoy.
You have these slow, almost captivating rounds for Fnatic that can cause them issues at times,
but when they throw that spanner in, the faster paced round, a lot of teams get caught off guard.
And, well, with the Hunter's Fury...
I think Vikas was originally on a Duelist character.
Like, he was a Duelist player, sorry.
So, he can easily play it.
I'm not sure why they made this swap, though.
I assume because Alphage just doesn't want to play Jugg.
Like, he's a Viper, he can play Viper better?
I don't know as the first probably because being more comfortable in that he came through then alpha would be makes the back side feel
As well as on a bit of the terror of the game
I think hero was there as well the huger's fury of his own
So the alpha doesn't like this or Yoru, I don't think
Weren't able to get anything from it
Or maybe he just this is like her fur
Because around well, it doesn't get much better than having three players ready to spread out the new list
You know I'm in yeah all that resulted in was yeah, there were more defenders there
But there were more bodies when the exec was done
Fnatic still finding favor
now looking for the lead
on a
very patchy by
That's the only rifle they have yeah shot connected by rick's it those is there should be five one, bro
That's sad Navi lost that room house aggression punished immediately in three one row net being thrown out by fanatic is them well to
You've got yourself a neon yoru, the expectation is you're gonna have aggression, you're gonna consistently try and push and pressure the map and I think it's too early around us.
You see Navi? Well I would like to see Navi put up a fight, which they did on split kind of.
They've been back to a banter and catching somebody in the rescue position.
I think it's 2-0, I don't care if it's 2-0 or 2-1, to be honest. I think Navi is gonna lose anyway.
rotation as you said it's coming because of that
I shot bro
there are so many thrifties that was your B platter by the way
they now rotated in so many thrifties but space taken by God's spot for alpha
easily a win around now this close either way somehow fanatic when this
round as well for navi they came in with weaknesses but a stack towards a and a
neon rotate on the other side and basically the entire squad was here
How are these ads running in mid-run? I don't get it. I actually don't understand.
Wow, they perfectly dodge Alpha. Actually, perfectly. By accident.
Wow, that's unlucky for Alpha, am I sure?
They saw him?
At CT spawn, they like find him?
Or window.
Aww, like he has to like let them pass.
He took a fucking fight?
This is kind of what we wanted to see from this guy you would have flaked them all right now
But it was the only rifle they had bit of a risky early stance pushing up like you just showed here
The fact that the only rifle they pass behind him or under
you would have killed multiple
Because of a delay from snake bite when the exit came in
The second third kills went to the B site player
Who had ran sprinted all the way back around again the benefits of having your a long side
You did exactly what I just said in this not the only benefits
Can't do anything to watch the game here, right?
What the fuck? What the fuck?
Crumbling across the border now be really nice execute
Bro all three down at the same time as we completely different areas not even trade
It's it being able to hold the line on this piece. I've seen it a lot with vipers
I honestly don't know how you hold this bebop site when they have ults
I actually don't know how you do it because everything here gets hit by util
You get you could potentially get hit by util here. You can't play here
everything just gets run run down
that kills so much cooler if he survives this because then it's they've
actually translated to not pin it yeah that's the one he misses okay crazy
round from feeling one the exits that's definitely peaked my interest but for
fanatic around we instill secure you have to be aggressive we're back to equal
Yeah, like elbow, right? I feel like you have to flank elbow like a lot.
The lead from that B, they're not happy to see it slip away twice, so the timeout is going to be called.
Yeah.
4-4.
The thing is, I look at this half, and I look at obviously Fnatic.
They really struggled when it came to the attack, but it is a different looking comp.
People are looking at Jep to try and help themselves.
The reality of it so far is that Felu has been on a tear.
And then that was the main criticism when this roster was built. Obviously, we didn't know how shall was going to be as an IGL
We knew the sort of three Turkish players. We knew the RUXIC here and sociable were going to be good
We've seen it all the way through last year both here in RUXIC, especially having incredibly high peaks
This was watching these are the stats. We were looking for anybody wondering. I just have no faith in Navi
So I'm not locked in shut down right now. They throw too many rounds three and again
specifically on split
that they are currently competitive in this map
I thought it's a very different looking story because my question now goes
I was feeling last night so I turned on the heater
wait wait, Rick sent up the top of the board even shut down quite a few times on B
and I think that if you have B.L.U. firing I need to see the rest of the squad up there with him
I think that's a very fair call
you're never lost in for EMEA you are a hater
three that's not the moment and he's almost got the same kills as tangible here
That is cat which I'm just never locked in for these games when I know what the result is gonna be or I'm very confident
So unless the result somehow is different
Or it looks like it's gonna be different. I think that it makes me more interested
The situation for now be feel who has been underperforming last week was awful and it's bounce back
Was a stop breaking party bad. Yeah, you guys underestimate this guy
Now be still
You shoot me for the second time, but for that it yet to gain it
This could be where that all changes of a bee again. They're popping be again
Genuinely never changes so aggressive, but not been forced off this time by the back of sight
You're all my bro. Oh, wow wait alpha died out for you a big early pick the bike was on the other side gone out of the round and
finding
Opportunity for back out for that opportunity has faded
with the spikes still able to go the other way I wouldn't be surprised if it
does can kayak get out of here though his gatecrash is fading and it is gone
hey what's the take this fight they know they got rid of the drone thanks to
crash he's spamming hero ends you pop that out I shot come on these are not
afraid to take these flights ever before today I know who my money would be on in
that fight but feel who right now he is on fire and fanatic again it seems
Let's say duo.
How far do you feel our snow will reach in the UCL final?
Or UCL? The competition?
Probably 70s and then lose.
Probably similar in last year.
Is the backrush flex?
You never saw him on initiative?
On initiative?
had the expectation that you're gonna have these slow
you're gonna have patience they just run into that
aggressive B execute once again
did he not play Viper before?
I thought the Vekash was gonna be able to find you
the outside of split
what does he play out of this?
Jett, no?
I feel like sociable has been very hit and miss
but the rounds where he's managed to find the openers
it's just so irritating
it was so close
is it ass-season maybe you played Jett then?
I'm thinking of yeah, and they just couldn't get the pit gone. I guess he's just maximum flexed everything inside as well
It's all that they needed a five to four score line for Navi
Great start to their defensive side at decline fanatics come back into this
There are sent yeah, I'll season. Okay the leadership status and
of a couple more rounds to play for
Victor like that kind of like this from much fanatic that they're trying to pressure elbow kayak and from Navi for holding it
Silo's spot.
Wow, the gash is in the middle of the open.
Oh my god.
Oh, shit.
Nice try.
Good job.
Rebae, the honest touch there.
Oh, man.
He's really feeling it right now, and they didn't instant react. It's another fucked
They instantly reacted mid doors
Maybe they go for the trade and win
That's so she will gone still to rain
Shown trying to move away to the back of the site has the support of
Rooksic and Rooksic's done well because walking with knife out no expect
That's kind of hard to read out to be fair to the cause
The attack are gonna try and double back but they're going into the back of the moment almost lines
This guy is the greatest.
He looks to get out of there out for you with 20 seconds
He needs to just run it straight towards Filou's holding the angle
Even trying to bait the shot but Filou does not miss a different man
Yo, 6 on defense on this map is very good
And any 1 else is bonus
Yeah, 18 to 3
What an insane performance
The fact that this is a 6-4 scoreline, by the way, is ridiculous when he's putting up these kind of serves.
Looking good with the off as well. So many shots.
That landed for a hand there in the past couple of rounds.
But A, Dean, it might be one of the best starts that we've seen.
And for it to be Filiou again, considering, now from Hindo, I mean, just generally here at kickoff.
I think he's passed on to you for sure, right?
Filiou has been awful so far. So this is a much needed confidence boost.
I would say long this way. Other than that, he was average.
Oh god, oh, okay. Hey kill. He's gone. You shoot him through the wall over or
I know that's got a lot of them
scrim feel it
Potential feeling
My what a kill monster what a kill
Hello.
Okay, 2v2, big 2v2 here.
If Na'Vi can win even once, one more round on defense?
Wait, it's the duo chat. Fuck brashies. Fuck brashies.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, terrorism, baby.
Holding onto light, most of the guys just a little more distance, and he lands a shot, but the trade is there.
Let him kick free just...
It's gonna be the sovers facing off.
The doppelgangers against each other with only one standing in the end.
Austin's perfectly up late, I'm not, these guys are fucking annoying.
He was just the time against him, but he'll still land the immediate headshot.
Austin's kidding though, you know me, like I'm your guy.
Time, a little bit longer, but there should be enough of it for the defuse.
I guess that's a little bit of karma for Crash, he's, I mean, he had some crazy clutches in the previous map and had to go the other way eventually.
Okay, this is gonna get weird now. 7-4 defense huh? Maybe even 8-4?
Not bad, don't switch though, don't switch. These are my guys.
End of the day. I just wanted not to be having a chance guys, I just wanted not to be having a chance.
That's why I said yes.
The coach is having a rough time on this attack so he's got to get very aggressive defense
on.
To deal with these duels we're doing.
He's very obviously split.
Oh my god, he cannot catch a break.
They cannot catch a break.
Double fan with Vandal there.
So does as well
Oh good tag
Good ults
Nah, no way right? No way? Like actually god rounds needed here
On a site or above
He's gonna cross out of the pit looking to the side
He's fighting for the office holding
A4, alright bro
If Navi somehow can't close it
An A4 defense route
Or defense stuff
Like surely they can get 5 on attack
live on attack.
It is so, so good for defense.
So good.
The big comparison to last year that we have big flexibility
because so she's the guy who can take any role which is hard to perform.
Let's say or you need to look at experience.
I agree that it's more defense-sided than previously, but I don't think it's like
Super defense-sided now. I think it's very like even but I would still say it's slightly favors attack just a little bit
But that's also dependent on how much mid-control you have
So if you never have mid and you're just popping A and B
Then obviously it becomes slightly even like slash defense-sided
Even then though it's attack sided because you almost always have post plants at least at B and at a
Happy thing in the five months
For preferred jet or neon here, I would say
for
Splits neon is better a split and B split neon is better than jet. I
Think it's dependent on what do lists like what?
What your duelist wants to do, like what his routing would be, and what AT&T is more comfortable
on.
You can both work to transform my discipline into official games, but I think we shouldn't
have problems with that because again everyone already has some kind of experience on stages.
When you get close play around, A feels more awkward.
I feel like you have more space on a close play as a tag.
I don't see any issues which might happen.
the new box in the back of sight wingman world well wingman world well what
have a break have a kit cat wingman world while wanting a well one break
what's up welcome back folks eight to four is the score now this is gonna be
I refuse to believe they don't close this
England won a well-earned break
And so as we come into this top
For fanatic a slow first half, but how this is their chance
It's their chance to prove that
They've got what it takes 13 days as IGL. Yeah, that is a lot, isn't it?
Yeah, yeah
That's so risky now
Genuinely risky because defenders have any angles on you and the angled yellow box
While still being protected from K.
You think that helps defense more?
I feel like it makes no difference if you split or APOP because they are not getting free shots on you
If you use if you have a crack walls and smokes
It's just a span battle at that point and you get bombed out.
Oh wow. Oh wow.
Wait, they just got owned.
What is this dog shit traffic trend?
A flawless.
Wow.
That was extremely poor fighting.
Everyone fought alone.
No chance to train anyone for any of the players.
No, no, no. I'm telling you, I was just...
No.
bringing in the jet into the mix and also the Yara for that little bit of like
escapism rather than having I think it was the Sage in last time which okay
that adds a lot of delay on the defense so you can have the slows are still
fantastic at the walk and also second off angles but I do think that this is
where I think Percy Kayak can thrive a little more get that operator in hand
get up in face still teleport out of there as he's doing right now thanks
very much for the example and also then like what we can see from Vekka just
a similar thing on the other side of the map so I think that they're still gonna be deadly on
the defensive side and I think we'll be foolish to get too far ahead of ourselves and say like oh
this is done we lose 12 and 5 EAs for me without a doubt yeah it's the beginning of the second half
and still well some promise no right find a pick on back side numbers back to you know right
still weaponry advantage for the defensive side patience as well coming out of crashes
Alphaholding his own crashes plans that flight control and feel and hero now to hold that back
as they're shot brother. Good shots good shots okay if that bonus them then I feel a little weird
but if not we can win with real life here this next round the not me I think would the same
there really will be no losses because feel is still feeling it
There's only the the marshal that was gone and I guess if they're not planning to keep into the next round anyway
There's no point just dropping it somewhere
Yeah, I know people don't play sensei on grease that isn't chamber. Okay, just like that
They can play off-hand hold a side solo chambers very good no matter what chambers good on corrode chambers fucking good on mind
Chambers good everywhere because the player never has to take any you to let
All you have to do is go for your fight. The only thing is once you do keep me out
Oh, you are fully relying on your teammates to throw the perfect utility because you have nothing.
We set some eyes to each one of you till he's at shankist.
That can't be Jordan, that's actually not right at all.
would be challenged in regulation. Alphier and Zeus, they both own it.
And I have the cash moving towards the doors. He's heard them, though. He knows that they're on
the move, but this shot all proves to be easy to start with. Decoy catches him fully though.
Okay, thankfully they traded. Okay, we lost. We had the dummy. Coming up behind them now,
needing that sociables essentially trapped in a corner. The team tries to float out to help them.
Shal?
Oh, yeah.
Socibly?
Oh, yeah.
Too alive.
Okay, I believe.
I believe, what around for me?
Yeah, dude.
I, I, it, it did, it did start with him saying he could play anything though, right?
I think he just left a different one
Booster has to get one
He's passing at that angle
Any ults, any ults, any ults, ults, ults, ults, ults, you have your roll
You're a neon double elbow
Oh boy
Fogul is spiting good
your role here is huge
do now
oh we're dry peaking, okay
I wish
when teams have this ult
they would just run a set strat
or a fake strat or something
a lot more than they do
It just sucks for you, though.
What a kill. What a kill.
There is no rotate.
These two are stuck alone, Ebi.
Oh, this timing Kayak takes the trade, though, by hero.
This isn't the game. Oh, what a kill.
He really keeps walking up.
firmly into fanatics court safe to say that he is feeling it right now fights
why is everyone fighting alone that's given hero an opportunity
wow not the ideal retake weapons but they get faced by Navi and both Navi
players win their fights 10 to 6 maybe a little bit over aggressive in that
retake from fanatic event they all comes tumbling down yeah I mean look at the
This you have to, right?
He's trying to trade to the big 4v4.
And then, the neon guys.
Everyone's just 1v1ing in the open.
That's not normal for Fnatic.
I play Fnatic play closer to the top NA teams.
And they don't do shit like that.
They're usually very good about double peaking every angle.
Like with numbers.
And having like, some more controlled retakes.
three very much on the horizon
That's why NA is going to watch an anti-valorant
Parambol?
Let's go NAVI, close this bitch out
Chicken 2-0
I
Predictions for chance this year. Honestly, I don't have any exactly the one I feel like we are making a prediction this early in the year
Literally just so like makes no sense
Riding in the corner is just perfect
He has been spotted by sociable
It's the best region you ain't gonna you guys gonna say bias, but it's America's man
It's just America's bruh
So for now V1 B5 bucky retake on B. I mean, it's a big
Thing you guys gonna say bias to like
Why the fuck do I have bias towards America's why would I have that I'm not quite sure
Watch all the region. You know, at least I watch three regions make around but also removing it all done
I've seen a bad. I've seen America's good and bad
There's a great time for the Indian to come in and put them in a position where
have that little bit of a
economic boost to fall back on
This is where the defense I truly believe that America's seems are better balance and like
better contenders for master's events then EMEA and ATK at the moment
because we got the top three right? we got the top three however I agree GT was
going to come back right they still have KeterGrid for like high tournament
Placing is completely surrounded nowhere left. We got a hundred these who's gotta be good this year
Post I think they actually almost baited out
Yeah, because showing some signs of him for like being impressive they be in the GQ
I think because they did as soon as you get into doors like okay
He's gonna come through and obviously you can clear out this space for your guy coming through doors
This space for the guys coming out through Maine. It's huge
I actually you see fanatic back off you see them set up their gate crashes to fall back
You see them not take those early fights waiting for that point of initiation
You're part of that I'm not expecting the player looking the wrong way to win and then they just managed to take it like I feel a crash
You should have been dead there
They would be able to hold on to the gun
Vecca is not activated because he was on that other side of the map and while 12 to 6 a map choice that isn't really showing as to why
Anandaka gonna take a time out
All right, I feel like
Which is the richest organ any an awful lot here to stem for Val?
I think it's a lot more than just a plot. Oh rich is rich is rich is. Oh, yeah
Get the tourniquet energy or sentinels six rounds in a row needed to fight back into this one
Oh
I mean
I don't know I actually don't know this year
Who the riches is
That they were running last time as well might be our by far fun. Have her what makes you say that I'm about to say
Especially because I like how do you know that three and eight?
This is gonna sound kind of stupid, but I prefer fanatics calm by like them moving away just based off the players
They have so there's a speculation or you know some shit. I don't know jet as that double dive
But it's 12 six just the betting sponsor those three lose having
possibly the best game we've seen from him.
MBR got investors, so does every other word.
I think you really have to give him a leg up.
They received a mid-thousand upper-eight figure investment last June.
He was calling that big.
I'm not going to lost my fist wall, but it's definitely showing eight figures.
That's insane.
And it was in a team where I said, like, he's a piece of a puzzle, not needing to be the
Social already
The path is set the dimensional drift
Clearing our angles now Boester has been a little bit cheeky a little bit sneaky trying to find a way to get the opener
He's now got quite a few players. I mean I don't think you'd energy. I'll have a lot of money
Instead now
Wow, they got cleaned on their map by the way, like they actually cleaned.
GG, gentlemen.
I don't know about this fanatic team, man.
I don't know about this whole like scaling up shit.
Oh
No, why does it don't know you know what I mean like when I watch it like when I watch
Americas and I see like hundred thieves and my BRG to energy rip when I watch them play
There's it there's
Most of what they do make sense to me I understand why they're doing what they're doing
When I watch this region, it's really like a pack
very very like big individual performances from players but very little like tactically like
advanced stuff happening. Yeah, Furia as well. Am I tripping like tell me if I'm tripping just
tell me if you disagree. There's times like there's times I'll see like a
crazy call right and I'm like cool there's okay also this game isn't just
like an insane call every round I understand that you have to default
etc etc etc but just the way that some of these rounds build up to and where
they how they end it feels more chaotic than it does for like America's
America's feels more like one team does something another team responds with the correct thing and then the other team tries to counter what they did and
It's like back and forth this feels more chaotic and I feel like chaos doesn't look as appealing
When you're like thinking of like strategy
Like you're these teams are ending up ending up in too many more way more chaotic situations than America's teams do
I
Pro so I don't see what you see but you see what I'm saying when I say
Like the chaos is different in America's than it is here
But I'm not trying to be biasing. I don't give a fuck who's the better better region. I don't care
It just genuinely feels like an EMEA and and a pack are
extremely talented
individually
But the teamwork doesn't seem to be quite there
In comparison to America's yet and that's now that's not to say it won't happen
Like later on that's just not the case right now for me
Teamwork is there but the strategic refinement isn't yeah, sure you put it that way
And then also the fundamentals of like double-peaking triple-peaking places
Okay, let me give you guys an example of something EMEA
I feel like doesn't do often that I should I think they should consistently do
But it was a very basic thing for pros, but it may be advanced for like other like players
When you lose a part of the map
You want to regain another part of the map, but you want to do that together
together. EMEA often doesn't do this. APAC often doesn't do this. America's always does
it. Like when you lose a part of the map you were initially trying to hold and then you
lose it, the standard very basic pro concept is to just go and re-clear another part of
map. If you lose mid, you go clear aim main. If you lose mid on split, or sorry, if especially in
the mid round, you don't want to fight like the whole site by yourself all the time. You can if
you want to, if you have a setup, but more often than not, you want to re-clear areas. And I feel
like America's does that better than these teams do. I know that's generalized, so I'll try to give
examples when I see them. because americas are good at invading territories. okay.
yeah exactly herein. they over fight a lot. they fight alone a lot. I don't know.
that's not even to say it's bad. because they will get better at it. but i do think that's a
Pretty important thing, you know.
America's truly is more appealing to watch at the moment because of the strategy and like
Teams being more like that guy said refined in their strategy.
I think we're a bit underwhelmed with that composition. I think that's fair.
No, I'm not underwhelmed by composition. I think the composition's really good.
Oh, sorry. What I meant by was like who was on what age in that competition.
I think honestly it's not just who were playing what.
It was he went by even three for first bloods and then it up seven and fifteen
Navi however looking incredibly
Fanatics map big wish
You know considering how that first map went
I don't know if this is necessarily what I was expecting
But the way that they came out swinging with their composition and the fact that every single player was so comfortable playing the role that they were supposed to
Was incredible. Yeah, I think sociable being on the order was one of the main ones that we highlighted going into your fair themes to watch peresian BBL
He's dominated like this and then last week he went minus 20 watching from Philippines. Hello, man
You're having a good day when he's on that day
Day and I like I guess for going forward from your mods are also arsenal fans. There's like a very high variance in futile play right now
But yeah, you know
America's good, but how many events did America's won in the past few years?
Yeah, I mean 300 plus one feelers and saying but putting up against the cash is performance
Just you know the number there are not really looking that nice
And I think many kind of touched on it in the age to events is not bad at all
Why are we seeing the cash on the jet when they have a player like alpha?
This is something that we've already asked you champs all throughout kickoff so far is why are they not just making use of the
fact that they have alpha there and in saying that wait does look great
2024 was
Like 2025 was I think it's like an interesting. Yeah, okay. So last two years it's two, but yeah, you're at 700
That isn't supposed to put up the numbers or you'd rather yes, yes, yes
It's not I think that sorry I was confusing 2024 chance with 2020
You didn't have the same
Like it has the impact despite not being on a jet
But I think to me the bigger point really is just the way that finacica are approaching these double-distance compositions
I think I'll split they they traditionally usually have it down
But on these other maps, it just feels like they're wandering around the map a little bit, getting picked apart,
and it doesn't really feel like they're playing double shooters correctly on some of these situations.
I actually have praised the Navi, like I think that their defaults on this map are...
JV Gaming, thank you, this year won.
Like they were doing an elbow default very quickly at the start of the round.
Well, you'd be watching Team Seeker vs Zedah, I would rather rip my fucking eyeballs out of my eye sockets,
in parallel, than I should have you.
Yeah, I think they've praised the Navi, they kind of, I think they understood the map a little bit better in that series.
And I still got question marks over Fanatic's double jewelist approach when they're playing with us though.
Yeah, then we're headed to buy next and then in the map that we haven't actually seen yet from the side of Fanatic.
So are we expecting a similar approach when it comes to their composition in regards to like being the double duelist?
Yeah, you can definitely play double jewelist on this map.
I think quite a lot of teams have played it so far.
They're out kickoff and there's nothing wrong with it.
But again, it goes back to do we see Alpha on the jewelist?
Do we see him on the Viper?
Do we see Vikash on the Viper?
Like this is the kind of question we're asking.
No. Okay, never mind. I thought that Fnatic were going to play tail because they were playing it a lot last year,
but they could have gone to double flip it. And now we're seeing Alphorn Ray. So I'm going to be honest with you.
I think this is probably one of the strongest, if not strongest compositions of the map, and seeing Alphor
get to play as a jurist again makes me...
Ah yeah, that's a big smile on your face. So that's what we like to see.
I don't want to flip it to Navi's composition here, Billy, in terms of what we can expect from there.
Is that a thing so that they do have the tail on there?
Yeah, I mean, this is the composition that they've run on bind all throughout kickoff so far.
I think for them, they need to go into this map, learning the mistakes that they had against
Gentlemates specifically, because that was a rough one for them.
Yeah, I think Fidu in particular was having a rough time on that bind last time against Gentlemates.
So like honestly, that Fidu after year head to head is kind of interesting here.
Because Fidu came off of such a hot game, can he continue that lament?
Yeah, I have to agree. I think as well, when we're looking at this, how is that, you know,
Wife or head to head gonna be I think Vakash being back on this agent is gonna look so much better for him
Especially considering the performance that you just had on the jet and would you go still would you still go be on the heretics game on a
cent
100%
Obvious ass
So I'm unfortunately I just prefer for nice composition they got tape on Navi can
I sat that a little bit and any time I see it I'll form a raise.
Is that the reason why you prefer the composition?
No, no, I think the composition itself, as we saw last year,
your raise was just dominating globals and I think that it is just wrong.
I think I'll go the opposite side then, so I can be on the other side of that.
I think that if you have Hero, Rooksik and Sociable, the firepower that they bring,
if they can continue to have a good performance today, I think it outclasses them.
okay well we have a disagreement here on the desk but maybe the casters can have an agreement over
the air alpha it's 100% win rate on raise this year map of this series with bachon tops where comes
bianji disagreements on the desk you'll love to see that i just want to know if me and mini have a
problem i mean he was looking at me real weird while i was coming up the stairs there i know what
that was about but navi and fanatic three maps i think we deserve that we always talk about the
Boser versus angel. Okay, it's a family business. Why not watch the Chris?
Failing business
Same system, but new pieces to the puzzle
Shows certainly has a gap in terms of experience was a 13 days against over 2000 as an IGL, but
Trading maps and not even look better on their map
Well, we'll watch it back tomorrow
This is a good game to watch, if it's a bad game to watch
You're a roost
First is, double initiator.
Alright, me personally, I've always liked in the double initiator.
But again, I still favor Fanatic because of talent.
Too talented.
Unless somehow Alpha and Kayak both suck this game somehow.
Although in the rifle rounds there'll be a lot of information even just off of the bots they can send through on felu and hero
Don't quite a feature here, but we do see sociable still has that you learn for a reclare
I'm so gonna be kept to actually fight one or a
Imagine it will be sent for information although that information. They're gonna fake it fake ETP
It's beautiful from fanatic
It is beautiful how long they take and how it works every time exactly how they want
Yeah, I was gonna say it's genuinely almost annoying to watch
They could just wait yeah, we might as well throw your one out you get it for free at the next round, but oh
Goodness, okay heroes go
Some damage, but I'm really they're gonna fight stuff for more players need to be dropped
It won't be a flawless. They still like are correctly holding for the right
They're just losing their fights on reason one to zero for a fanatic and a very strong start
to the pistol, at least.
Yeah, of course, a lot of stakes on the line here.
Loser of this game going up to face the winner
of Heretics or KC.
I'd expect them to be favorites either way.
And obviously the winner,
works every time they just lost the last map,
or it's one map.
They'll be looking for a spot in the middle,
find a perfect spot.
You want me to overreact to a one map
and centralize their whole gameplay?
And probably setting the social control stress
that a lot of bracket gets scarier and scarier.
Most of the time, they're consistently able
get the pushes that they are looking for. If they get outshot then those pushes, that
doesn't mean the strategic side of it wasn't a good. You dumb block. You understand now?
If they miss their shots and they're fully ready for their opponent, there's not strategically
anything wrong with what they're doing. They're missing. That's it.
Bitch ass.
That's it.
Bitch ass.
It's not rage baiting. This guy's just an idiot.
I fucking hate idiots.
No, you know who I hate? Confident fucking idiots. That's what sucks.
you go off history but the Connor Moranze of the world any boaster squad
a map where but I think if you look at any Viper line-ups we know where they
came from
and the A site well I will say the only risk is if they catch crashes that was
about it they do have a nice flank coming in and maybe a nasty
Okay, interestingly weird round.
Ah, they're good.
They're fine.
I thought they were going to lose this round somehow.
I saw all those kills.
Not a chance these two things.
Good round for Navi, no good damage.
Why is there no streaming? I don't think he streams the Indian or it's rare.
I think many players can get impatient when playing Fnatic. It's not just playing Fnatic.
They get impatient in general. Like the lower the time is, the more tense the round gets.
And then if they start losing players on their team, they also lose that information.
Players on opposite ends of the map want to regain the information somewhere in order to over stack.
But Fnatic are always, always, always ready for that.
Like always they've been from their whole game plan is based around defaulting on every map
And it's crazy how often it works at least strategically
Office is just taking a top spot didn't go all the way to truck and it's a good thing
You can see the hero and rucksack were holding that waiting for him to pop in and give a pick away
No smokes from Buster though. Ripple TP into the sky. Does he have power?
See like right here, they didn't jump out of hookup, they fully slowed down, insert one at 40 seconds, and then go back.
Jowl's head is clean off and the double fake for Fnatic has worked wonderfully.
Yeah, still yet to get to the side.
30 seconds left.
There's such deep control.
Again, they've got an extra salvo to try and buy them a little bit of extra time.
But I feel like this is something that, you know, Fnatic, they're going off time, and
they're not running it as low as maybe in the past.
There's a chance that they're special delivery, because they're never a kill, but instead,
it's out for you once again.
There's a reason we wanted him on the jewel list, on the raise, we know what he can do.
It's done well
Seems like he was maybe expecting someone a little bit closer the flash has given the game away
I know exactly where he stands holding the angle bear mine now low alpha is he could be spammed out of the box
of the cross
Fucking try and get around for kinetic fall in this round like right there. They could have easily
TP'd and then just jumped out hookah
But they gave themselves more options that were viable in the round by keeping a lurker towards A and thankfully Kayak got the kill
but even if he'd kayak doesn't get the kill they're able to pivot to B still and
They don't like rush decisions. They'll
Make a play off of something that happens
Keep map control maintain it but also keep all their options available on the round
It's just very separated like they are extremely separated in their defaults, but I don't know
It's just always good. It always works for them. It's great. I'm up to it's a great time for their veto is moving through this tournament
The breeze is the mess that people have to be worried about. Yeah, but
Yeah, that's all it's gonna amount to
Yeah, we need we need to see them warm up into this game. I think the again like for Navi
I think staying in the middle bracket is more. Yeah the second they start moving the death after TPing
Like they don't jump out of hookah that's guys just calling. I think it's a snake. I don't know what's going on
They're not here yet
They haven't jumped out yet, and then the rotators just running back and forth not knowing what to do
I made it quite fun, and then those guys that a feel the need to get info
I feel like that's a man
They do this push and pull every map in every fucking game since the beginning of
fucking time
Alpha sorry, no kayak
How do you counter that?
You have to essentially jiggle like that guy's shower that died to cut or to alpha needs to fucking jiggle just full jiggle
And nobody commit any fights, but the thing is you can't also
So they always do that perfectly. You're eventually gonna end up giving up a dumbtie
The best thing you can do is double peek things you want to clear. That's it. Like keep the fundamentals good
It also doesn't help that he loom isn't starting the game fucking eight and one but he did last map
Like obviously fanatic are capable of getting
something that's like do list it if that happens that no matter what strats they
run do you like fate or sky more time it won't erase it no I think is the eye I
think the eyes really good when you're scaling into bomb size extra thing for
You play with the Shuda and then two prowlers, which is better than one dog.
So I've trade those two good pieces of Util for one flash or two flashes, especially if
I have a Yoru already.
I already sky and Yoru at that point.
But I still prefer double initiator to like Wondulis as opposed to double Julis.
site will lose his life to that cash as well and although the time started to get a little low
things started a little dangerous yeah when i watched the game i just learned what the current
meta is it's not about who could start with but the fact is um how do i explain this
when i'm watching and analyzing games especially when i'm really locked in so like really important
games. I just feel like in this current moment I understand the meta of what
teams are trying to do and how they are trying to play it whether it's Double
Duelist or Double Initiator. I'm yelling I've always just been good at. This is very easy to do.
The hard part is like analyzing the actual meta in that moment and how you
maneuver like what kind of cops see people run and what kind of how they play the map in a very
macro way. But actual IGL is still the concepts stay the same because the maps haven't changed.
The only time I would need to help IGL or like I've watched these games to learn how to IGL
is if the map changed completely or a new map came out.
It's now a bit more of a problem with no credits as well like the fact that this is the investment
This is the one that you put all your eggs into the basket for and your opponents have so many get out of jail free cards
What has been the biggest meta shifts in your hand?
For Navi this has to be clean clinical play honestly pretty recent
But like the devil do this the last couple years of this like just the perma devil do this
Where it was a dominant eleven three I think we see way more double do this than we ever will
I think we'll consistently see way more double-dullists going forward than anything else.
Cause you're strong and we'll consistently be strong.
Then they just get a second duelist. People just prefer that, especially with the talent they have on the rosters.
Most teams have like two players that are insane duelists.
I want to use all of them, maybe not, but at the same time, if they do, it's one thing
that's sort of round the notch, speaking of aggression, already, Bulu taking that early
fight towards the TP hasn't found anything that has got a lot of experience, has got
space, but that's where you're going through the TP for that, in a sense, we can just...
Teams can still do double controller, double boost, and one initiator.
...you're thinking about at least one or two, and there it is, they've spotted the both
out.
Wow, he's done though. I think he's just dead here.
Wow, he did a really good job.
Kayak did a really, really good job getting those suitcases for Alphalus.
Wow.
We'll have a easy start to this map that they have no choice but to run for the hills by those start on attack
Did get one thing wrong? I said he'd find the info and then I unfortunately said that alpha would get the pic
Yes, it's
Apologize I was wrong. They then did use the Viper's pit for post but there was a set of our soul make the use to do
So finals he has more faith in your team than you. It's not fake
It's just kind of faith. I guess fine. It's fine. Well, we're gonna let it slip
I was just cos we're in four competitions and I think we're gonna falter in one big one.
Goods, Fnatic, pull off, no Delos comps with their playstyle. Yes.
Yes, they can. They actually can.
Fucking remember how they played as Sents?
They're old as fnatic comps.
a chance
That isn't a cutback to the pause that one's just now. Yeah, so yeah clearly
Scribbling down don't group up against the show so they'd better no because cops have a lot more to do with the map like
what your map theory is and
the most efficient way to take
Not control in that map in your opinion
That could be better with due lists that could be better with initiators or senties whatever you want
Another post plan do you have to use the result here just has to
But all
Boaster to versus for boasters wing it back side watch
Yeah, great connection and Molly gonna be sent to the wrap around and you got a second
Oh my god
I'm in time
Are you serious?
I might even get him away out with a snake bite in hand. He can make this very dangerous indeed
He goes marching forward snake bite landed run sick
The Molly miss
Keep pushing forward
Hit that guy
Oh my god
Most of it gets too
This is a heroic gameplay from him
That's nice
It went up top!
That's so much better than I thought it was!
Six zero, yeah, wrap it up.
No momentum, just nothing.
You don't? Come on!
I didn't know.
You can't play this game, this is why we don't have...
I hope all the Viper on this map isn't at the White Oaks.
That all makes sense.
Jesus, you gotta be so mad if you lose a round like that.
For now, I mean, they probably won't realize how ridiculous that is.
They saw it from his POV.
Just buy more tax either a defense of an attack in my opinion because defense you have to be extremely proactive like Hayden for example
Defense is all about proactivity and
Reclearing places that you lost in order to make fights easier for yourself
While getting extra info for your team and over stacking sites based off of it though
so
Naturally defense takes better teamwork better team cohesion
um better you tell attack is just naturally easier
sorry what was that what was that vikash say that
as well as the expert after you i'm very
What's the most annoying map to call on?
Split.
I like it.
I hate split.
I really didn't like calling on split, I'll be honest.
I just didn't feel like I had any option sometimes.
Or sometimes I just felt like I was too easily read.
Because mid can just be so hard to take.
And if I'm like a mid control kind of person, where I need the middle of the map in order to be able to push and pull,
and that's not always going to be the case on Split.
Sometimes it's just, they just hold it down.
Like I try to call off percentages.
And my highest percentage calling is based off of mid control because
They have the least info out of anywhere else on the map.
That's a... nah, I lost one set, Colin.
Finally. Finally on the board.
You have to lie to me, yeah.
12-5 Woosh defense you dicks!
There have been times where my teammates have been like, wait, John trust me and then they'll call somebody.
There have been times. And yeah, of course I do. Like, what am I gonna say no?
It's only if I know they are wrong. I'll say no. And that's so rare.
Well, not a fact guys has anything to say about it. This is nasty
They just lost the round of their responses to fully freeze and wait that smoke's going to fade pretty soon
He gets to
That's pretty unreal
That is extremely unreal. All right. Well, tonight has been just gonna hold. They're gonna hold the whole round
Raises next to die
in no man's land looking for a pick and that is the same, surely it's the same.
I had 2v4 when they have a post-pump brimmo.
Alright.
Okay, yeah.
That's not a free salvo.
Yeah, you're gonna...
Oh, wow.
That's what you...
Now he's running away.
4 seconds.
Bobby IGL's Clueless?
That wasn't even a bad play.
They walked out together.
They skyflashed through the orbs.
That's his favorite number.
Or the smoke.
There we go.
And this guy just managed to get a 2k.
You're really on a terror today.
What do you do?
Good by no means we're just throwing you in I haven't heard him give one of these pieces of it
No, you know, they're the whole day. These are old leeks. He's completely by himself. Come on man. Oh your game
You're gonna stare me like that at the top of the stairs. Come on. What's happening? Seven to one. We're some chatter
Hold on it could still be the court. Let's hold on
Oh bots I see well, what do you want to do mods?
I mean look anything could have happened time I think could have happened I literally hold
it you're probably right you are right about that like the same time like it's better for
like she just looks away
really yeah wait no more jet wait what that doesn't make okay i think i agree
with you like the sky flashes and he's second and then brim is first and
keeps his gun out the whole time so doesn't have to be worried about pulling
out gun yeah that that's very small but very
important there. So yes, I agree.
Is the flexibility of Yoru where you can just be in two sites at once for over one minute?
To most of her defense? Yes. Yes, and it's, I think it's brain dead that you're just able
to do that because it takes away from the skill of having reads to begin with. You don't need to
have reads when you're Yoru. You literally just TP back and forth. It's a joke. At least with Neon,
yes, you run faster, but at least you could still be farther and miss a timing. But Yoru,
you never miss a timing. You're always at whatever site they hit. I think that's stupid.
I think TP timer should be lower. That's it
Performing round-to-round and yet they have completely fallen apart on by I saw that's missing you up. I like it
Going back to like alpha on the jeweless. It's just been disgusting back has been playing incredibly well and
Kayak is also the tenant for it's not like there's been any slackers
Shou brimble but these guys have brim and your your role.
What? Wow. Missed.
Nice try Rookzik, nice try, nice try. Good girl.
Austin got two?
He's gone in to try and help and has ended up as part of the deficit now sociable this fight versus Alfie
I'm doing everything he needs to do
I'm running I'm running I've got balls to just get out of there hold the site
Molly until that Molly blooms was sociable
No flashes left to fight his way out the dog sent through instead, but it's already good Molly again
The snake bite used to buy some time to flank up by hero.
He's low now.
He's found one.
I've died.
Phenatic Delta surrounded on all sides, potentially.
But the guy should pick an angle and fucks.
Rikaz?
One, two, three.
Really good back here.
We're not peeking.
Take your time, brothers.
Bang.
Feel who fires the rocket just before.
If Navi can get four and pistol, we can talk about it.
Now if you have a round why'd you mean Sentinel over skin initiator?
When they all win I think it's because I was already a centi player at the end
That was the main reason at the beginning and then we also have crashes for initiator
We I would only be
Only when we play double initiator when I go seven
Initiators that played before I played they and Kail on Haven
I do think that anything less is just going to be a bridge too far
Aim for an epistel. It's certainly the game. I've been KO. I've been faith. I've been split guy
Even a recency two out of three the last rounds now be starting to look a bit better. It looked like
I've been briefed. Yeah, but
Reach split I'll reach on frat are on fracture. Yeah, I think I won't point out play breach on
Perl as well. No, Killjoy Perl always, or Viper.
Wow.
Yeah, I prefer initiator for sure.
I prefer initiator because I like to get the info myself as opposed to teammates feeding it to me.
I also feel like the anchor position, I am extremely limited in how I call.
At the end of this one to close like the micro management is harder when I'm said when I'm a centi. Yeah, I'd be thank you for the five
It's it again. I don't want the fighting to be bad. Generally, it's a compliment sandwich
You get the criticism in the middle. Yeah, she gave them a compliment just before and
Would you be a good soba? I don't want to learn those lineups. I'm no fucking Jesus Christ. Give me a break
Personally, I've learned boaster for getting shot through this work. Yeah around the spam do better
one round left to play for the Viper's pit and the showstopper available
FeeLoo almost taking crashes out of the round right away the off doesn't get
fired I don't expect to see too many risks being taken by Fnatic unless they
involve out here going in first with a big old rocket on the shoulder no way
they've cleared back corner the back edge got a double kill that's crazy you
think your ideas were stuck in it that aren't you what even though it wasn't a
mistake last time they checked the first success when they got a new player that
depends what do you think an outdated idea is give me an example of something
so you saw that was outdated firepower weaponry banner thank you to tier one
15 months I don't think so
maybe a game of chicken for Fielu yes don't worry about his back when his
execute comes through but he's got two teammates close by to cover him
So no tail, that's it, right?
The no tail one?
That's the main argument, is the no tail.
Wow.
Unlucky.
He did just run in there with an off didn't he?
They're still too alive though.
There's a risk. There's a big risk.
Maybe thought the Viper was planting, but
a risk hasn't paid off.
Sociable.
Round the edge.
Still has a flash to play with a pot flash in here
and Crash is gone. It would leave a 1 HP player
on the other side. The power goes...
Well played.
He's all the gunner now. Crash is just behind both of them.
Well played, awesome. Perfectly played.
Chow is chasing shadows.
He's looking for the man lurking in the dark.
He's trying to find an opponent.
the money
it's gonna be revealed if he waits any longer
and then the one HP will cover the home
and then in the clutch who would doubt them
it's gotta be said Tom
mistakes to remain there
some slight mistakes before Fnatic capitalized
he got every single one after a close series
we have gotten 9 to 3
after 9 explosives
you
You
Know what thoughts do you want on that they're literally playing three spawn so they can instant rotate to whatever site is hit
has to be one that goes their way so she will always surviving in the corner so they can flood
they won't know
he should have seen that he was caught most
that the C's should have caught him so they should know that he's in this corner
in fact the couple are coming up
make that a third Alphea was well aware
that was the round winning kill unless
hero and Rooksik that time is ticking so desperately far
somebody needs to get on the line they need to get on it now
they just need another time
the deadly duo strikes again in the post plan
And now we have their much needed pistol round. Yeah, I mean this was essential for their fight back
We said in an 8 4 half the pistol could really get the back into the view of the spike already
I think I was you tell me there's no conversation. No more. Maybe like a missile so they couldn't see that pistol under your belt
And probably very much did in the end again the fact that alpha found that pic
I thought it was all over but watch it. There's so well in short and a span from my promoli
Okay, there you go.
It's like, wasn't that far away from being diffused
and he was running low on ammo,
but just about found his mark
for the third or fourth time through that smoke in the end?
Oh!
Well, that's quite a response.
That's fast for like smokes to die.
I'm sure if it's anything worth fighting for,
either way, Fnatic won't go for it.
No.
I would assume, based on them having three rifles,
that it was a pistol.
You would think about it.
Okay, Rooksic walks him short against the cars.
I'm not sure it was.
I've seen fade A, alright everyone's just gonna die one by one here, waste of a round.
Austin, you're Roberto, nice try, look at that orb bruh, kidding it's gone.
They can now freely go in another direction. They might not want to know
Nine five need bonus leave it nine five need bonus dolls decoy through make him think he's coming for the TP
I mean, you know, you're against the Yoru, but
It could work. What do you think about teams running astra instead of brim?
I think they're running astra instead of brim
Yeah, they're the step pattern. I mean in general on
If you're trying to consistently run Astro, that means on attack side you want a permalurk,
so you have options, again it's all about options.
So you have the option to pivot back to the other bomb site in case your initial one doesn't work out.
You have more options on the post plant, aka heavy flank.
And you consistently have a lurker that's holding your flank, so you never get flanked.
And on defense side, you have Astra in comparison to Brim, so you do global smokes. That's it.
But you throw away the Molly. You don't have an extra Molly. That's it.
You don't have a Molly, but you have stars and you can play any site you want.
As far as fun. That's it.
There's just a difference in playstyle and what you're looking to do in the round. Or in that map.
If you want to play by the specific way with Astral, you can do it just as officially as you can with Bram.
Just your playstyle has to change slightly.
Navi will get this bonus for sure.
Let's see.
Let's see what we have here.
What have really fast rotation is this a feed Viper here your baby roast they got a tp
Really good position by the college that he can't die
Okay, well awesome you kids die like that a lot of
Okay, oh okay, I'm gonna shit myself.
Chat, not only did Kayak with and he killed Kayak, he turned and then killed another guy
spawned by the way.
takes over yeah I got it very politely asked for a replay of every single one
of those kills that was nuts and for feeling yo chat do you feel like these
Harvard changes do anything I saw the Harvard changes recently I feel like
he's still as I think about last year I don't think he impressed me massively as
a duelist I took roster to impress on but now he's just dog know certainly today
and up against Fanatic of all teams he is pulling out a lifetime because no
Cascades and it is keeping Navi alive keeping them in this in 9-6. That was something that was really interesting
Like the cascades were just too nice
He said about like you might watch players who have decent stats in games like in officials
And when watching Velo, he saw him play very very well in their practices. Disagree, I think he's strong
Well, I know if I get the cock and the sack, I'll see and I was like that is not the way
I feel like most people would look at it. You will look at a guy who does
Disgust decently all the time. Disgust?
I'd rather have that guy and try and make him better.
We're back.
And see the potential.
Let's get really high, Chubb.
All of us.
That's the thing with someone like Angel.
If anybody was going to be able to get someone to fulfill
that potential, it's the guy who has more leadership experience,
at least from the IGO role, than anyone else in this game.
Like, that's a fact.
I mean, like, honestly, considering he retired from play
this year, he has to be one of the most experienced FPS players.
Yeah.
And he is.
20 years.
Yeah, 20 years.
I mean, most people that have been in eSports
that long are now like Orgoners or something
in the background.
Like, you know, people that were around in those early days,
they don't, they sticking around is one thing,
but sticking around as a player.
Yeah.
You know, coaches, managers, sure, yeah, whatever,
but as a player is ridiculous.
Even doing it as a coach is cool.
Yeah, it's tough.
It's tough.
He's running all the time, eventually.
And this guy has stayed relevant as well.
He hasn't just played.
He hasn't been paycheck stealing on a roster.
He's been building.
He's been fostering you.
Who's paycheck stealing?
I'm making some decent runs.
Oh, so I was shot by him.
What are my favorite interviews we ever got to do?
OK, I'm not going to lie.
This has been a rough game for him.
It was almost like a cage flight.
It's genuinely rough.
Verbally.
I loved it.
But yeah, I know you have him as a coach sitting there.
I mean, it's, you can only imagine.
You last year, whatever, rocked him.
Who cares?
My money, no.
That ceiling can be.
Amen.
You guys can't blame me. I told them at the beginning of here. I don't want to play they forced me to
Okay
They're not that far away from taking this series and progressing on in this middle bracket rucksack
This is an under the series. Yeah, it's getting on
Wait
You tell me
Well, not forced, but I signed a contract. It's not forced, but they didn't let me leave when I specifically asked you.
Well, you watch it back tomorrow. I'm not seeing secret though.
back but you have to bear in mind I think last time they I gotta get some
love how do I know who gets it I just want to say thank you don't worry
thanks flying the Aggie
it was the double flank where they gave up both sides of it they got pushed on
both sides of it and both players that push both sides okay no you go we have
to look in chat this is a big round big rounds going forward
Okay, they have a
Similar set up crashy shower and then the college backside a and these as our triple B
Similar setup on another key route
Oh God
No, like a while now watch out. It's interesting by for all by the way
Yeah, okay, they're interesting by anyone three. Oh cuz the orbs site. Wait. No, I'm gonna mind that's the time to the work
Please don't lose this do not lose this
I can't be the play do not lose this kayak has alt as well. It could be the anti-gives, right?
Heroes of kryptonite. I'll handle this. Here we go. He's about to handle it through clearing out all those space spotted sociable already
That's one bad missile brimble right second player. I mean, they need to play the game. It's all great Molly extra smoke, okay?
Oh my god
Oh
I'll caught the fuse yet
Valuable time as a key
I caught the fuse
I need to get on that spike
Wait they're double short
A little bit more time for themselves
Force those fights
I'm going to kill this
I'm going to have to kill this
They threw it by the way
They didn't throw but
Navi did a really good job on that close point
I should have known from that flash
4 now be win this go to players down when it's really hard to times get lost in a post plan being to a 3d
And letting them down the bomb go down too easily
Come on
Starting to slip away from fanatic. We saw the same thing versus BBL
hot start to a map
Gave them some space gave them a little way back in I
I don't know that it's the taxides have been good me defense side's been terrorism pure
terrorism at the races popping off individually having the same clutch but see
you later okay goodbye rucksack sleep well little too aggressive there going
back for a little bit more okay feel a little too aggressive here to be honest
to go for the same fight well risky it's bold fuck me but it has worked out no
fuck me I need to get rid of Alfie was the man with a guardian I'm sure that
Wait, he heard the prowler, he should stay, stay bro.
Okay, he's gonna go get bomb.
Tay is gonna take over short. Nope, he's not. They're pushing short.
Oh my god, what do I feel like this motherfucker is gonna get timinged?
Oh, W, W, what an action.
Just a good player.
It's just a good player doing good things for his team.
He's a good guy.
Fnatic falling there. It was a guaranteed equalization.
K.O. Alt for sure. This people also have Ray's Alt. Are you close?
The fight comes into the round. I was worried that we sure wrote the stats at the beginning about how we're going to win.
You're in a bit quieter. This map, he has been...
Oh my god, we're doing a hookup pop.
Oh my god, they're doing a hookup pop with this Alt.
One of the maps, so it's hard to also have insane stats when your entry just picks up everything.
Razalds! Wait.
I think they were trying to bait that all too.
They were trying to bait that all too, honestly not a bad play from either team. I didn't mind what Rixxley did there.
That's a little bad.
I didn't mind that. It's just good Razald. Fuck.
there. Gate crash. If the pressure was then to come back through. Ultimate. Obviously dissipated.
Chows want to win. I don't think it was like a call to hit go through hookah.
They just wanted to all tap hookah for pressure. With Kayak ready and waiting to
Oh, wow.
He hit the shot.
Gresh is...
Andy lives.
That's just too good.
Too good.
Yeah.
This should be...
Bang.
Oh no.
Clean man.
Neatly in a bow.
And the question now for Fnatic is will they lose anybody?
Very clean.
Convincing performance Kayak wants those orbs.
He's hungry, running it down with the AWP and a third in this round for him.
Wait.
An in-zone flawless as well.
Wait.
He did an ult?
I thought he ulted, no?
So consider as well that it was a 5v3 the previous round
It should have been the second round Kayak almost individually won them of course the show self
100 of damage so all right that operator for kayak has already been
This hodge on Viper ults, that becomes very annoying if you ult short.
Stop with the goddamn ads, that's what I'm doing, I'm running ads right now.
Yep, I did that.
Yes.
But now that that's being pulled back
Abandoning the A site
Making a move towards being normally you see this game crash for the rotation, right?
But here it's a passive fallback. So it means that
Plus water thing is fine the B site to help out and they don't have any real info on B either
What can we do? I imagine we might even see them attempt their retake
Oh my, I can't believe Bozer is taking this fight like this.
Okay, he's off.
He could have gotten easily spammed there.
Oh god.
He lived!
Big trade here by Na'Vi.
Really big.
Okay, they're dead.
They lose.
Wow, what a hit by Navi. What a hit by Navi. Chat. Now that, okay, if a team hits that
well on you, there's nothing you can do to hold the site, which is why, fundamentally,
you either play for hookah or you play for long. Okay, going forward, in your, like,
in your rankings.
Yeah, no problem, no problem, it's very easy.
You lose one and you jump into Huca.
Loose Luca, you jumped a Viper Wall up his wall, then you skyflashed through wall. Take long.
To deliver this level of performance, because it's not if I get hit with an execute in a race
I think I'm just saying if you're trying to be on the team, this is how you do it
Not just for Rick, it's general advice in the previous round and
Their catchers now use this pit towards a that's why you see this
early stack of players
I like this though, social is game the seekers, which has a counter as bowed as good as it gets.
I wonder if that goes back to the contractual company?
Okay, so nobody there doing the same thing, passive, very passive, not fighting for long, not fighting for hookah.
Very passive. This unfortunately gives these guys too little information, they're guessing it's B right now.
And they're playing B because it's Viper ult.
I don't think there should be too much of a challenge there for a while, 50 seconds on the clock.
I have an idea of sure the willingness to play this a little bit slower, but not quite to the degree that Fnatic has
The push now coming in, but Khyak finds the open here
That's a good trade, very good trade, because I don't know if he has to kill him
That's the reason, completely that he's trying to play this, but fuck this, I'm not holding it with you
We'll try to make this more costly for Na'Vi, but the late playbox it can shut him down
And here he was there, with the TP giving away the Q
And honestly, I'm surprised I don't see a save already, but they're gonna go for this a 2v4 now a 2v3
Kayaks up could get them
Perfect place
Third of this and Navi's lead as a result. It's fun because we we've got the talk about
This fanatic roster with that cash coming in here. I'm in a great game
You do have to kind of look to the other side and go well
There is the one who got away the one who you let go the one who is standing in for your squad
And has now headed over to Navi and might be the one was a nice very right
I don't like that low bracket hero is cooking
25 and a and that's the thing in that round. He's running through utility
He's running into players. He's running to a crossfire and he's taking two while doing well
I doubt it's not me. So I'm happy to be wrong
They're 25 and 8? 25 and 8?
You know.
Yeah, exactly.
Sure.
Now, Schall better suck this guy dry after this game.
Pull the pants though.
Pull them down.
This is the squad that is famous for comebacks, and they almost all want to come back.
They got destroyed on Breeze, and now another big lead, albeit it wasn't 11-3 at least,
But the 9-3 without that leg up without the pistol here in this half and we're seeing
Is that how you treat a Jake?
I'm not gonna talk about that. This is
A different look
Now I'll be showing that's mental resilience. That's a yay star if you use buddy
Talked about the
The fact that this was a path that they were gonna go down building up their new IGL
Bring in Philo from a squad of
nothing like failures in the past turning him into a duelist the people of
fear he's done that today they might be able to pull off a crazy comeback
versus the comeback Kings of course they're trying to change it up a little bit
they're trying to change it up a little bit they really want this entry on Shao
they saw Shao they tried running him down
given them something but now Vee were aware they kept the control
and I fall them back a playing patient especially after the pause and already
decent info let's just believe these guys reading everything anything over hero
once again toppling a magician this time fanatic with so many weaknesses already
losing a player as well and the show stopper to fall back on honestly they
need to get rid of that in this round otherwise Navi have two chances to close
this out with a big old coming in right off
this game can steal the life from fanatics grasp this series this head to
shower needs to stay alive for sure throw smoke stay alive don't lurk late
the labor
This Navi Ross is
Completely different time. Oh, I just want a shot the only reason really really work
over 600 days ago
Bang now he steps into the coach slot and it seems to be
Really good player very thorough one round away
Unless poster has the round of his life like this. I don't think it's back walking in a
A 2-1 victory over Fnatic from changing the partnership record
From 5 to 1 5 to 2. Hey, it's it's not much. That's still quite a gap in favor of Fnatic
But it will start this year off
We're flying colors what happens to you and tested now V
I'll tell you the three the version of the matter matters the most is always the most recent one
Watch Game 2, what is she saying? The same shit?
I can't believe Navi came back.
I don't understand where we're at and then she just says something about the game she doesn't understand.
It's fun.
Eeeeeee, he's walkthrough, he's walkthrough, he's timing.
Nice, nice shigel though.
Nice shigel boaster, would give you that.
Kayak going for extra information, but he's going to hero, hero, hero!
Oh, he's aware.
Kay, both teams being very thorough. I like that.
Hero just took himself away from danger.
See again, just... I like that Alpha is playing for Hookah.
If they lose it, easily the fight from Wat can go up,
or brim can just smoke long or molly long
to get alpha out
aww this Kayak late repositioning
surely he kills the shower guy
yeah
free ball plant though
and it's not a free ball plant
very good spam
and we got flank
oh my god clean round for nami
Alright, let's go for that.
Beautiful.
I shot.
Okay.
I like the aggression from Kayak there.
tried to get aggressive showers
kind of want to see a hookup pop
they're doing it
are they doing it?
Hi, man. Excuse me.
Wow!
I think that I see how I know what's happening here.
Oh wait, this is bad.
Kayak has to have gone around.
No! No!
No!
I'm a sinner!
Wait.
Oh no!
I'm a sinner!
Wait.
This is going to get this guy and then he sucks.
These guys are terrible post-climates.
No, this eyes just going to for sure feel it.
Social bless.
Available that cash will be the first point of contact. He's never mind
He's on the God spot never mind is the steps him getting out one their own
But that time has been ticking wait, Heather
They need to tell them defaults only just making it to the site
They were waiting for the bypass screen hoping that that could give them a little bit of a break to spare
Wait, you have to has a man. It's a deny
It's like they're just trying to get out of the way, but it has been stopped
They need to get back on it. They need to do it
They did it! What?
Oh my god, why is most of them peak?
Why did we both have to peek with the flash?
Two overtime!
Oh my gosh!
So long, we came into this game talking about how much fanatic Electro run the clock down.
We meant about the attack side.
No, not about the defense, Rick Ticks.
They came back in there though with full toxins.
The wall goes up and it's a problem.
Wait, the flash...
The sky flashed himself.
for a moment!
Let's go!
This guy flashed himself!
Navi, we're just about to send the history books straight and instead run to OT!
Oh my god!
A man let go.
A man without face, but Becash had full faith in Crashies to hold the line.
And boy did he hold the line.
Navi, they had that victory in the palm of their hand.
Wait, they're rushing them.
Oh, because you gotta chill with the dogs.
I mean, that...
Hey!
They have all of these.
They have.
They have the entire fucking map?
Corners that you need to clear that often will you focus your sight so far back?
But that just brings them back to a
So he wants more back out with another alpha puts them into the lead
and here it is
but
a nade online with that second kill and that means even more delay even more
Shows almost gone down to it
And then the salvos come in and then the cat already has trinity 13!
They have battled back to the leader now they can take it home!
I can't believe Navi has thrown this away.
I actually feel bad.
I cannot believe it.
Mid round adaptation to switch up to the back of the site.
As you said, I'm sure Navi came into that going, we've got the element of surprise.
That's unreal. That we are in this position right now.
Hero is 29 and 11.
I mean,
What it looked insane if you got to go
Social business aware
Oh my god, the devil from Shriezy aware
He was aware I mean to be fair he was aware
That's good dude, just good shots by Tadec.
Oh, the legend.
Oh, cold guys, hi, hi, I'm behind the mic.
for a few seconds.
BAM!
In the pulse of the IV, it doesn't go quiet just yet.
Boaster.
I think this would be a play to remember.
A play that would haunt angels' nightmares
as he watches from the couch.
Even with the first so much more needed,
another will get a little strike on the way.
And the Azzamalli, but it's in the wrong spot indeed.
No smokes is quite the issue.
Got a shot to the head locks in another O.T. This game ain't done yet
How the heart attacks continue
No one able to take damn long-ass game finishing below
And the fact is that they won this round off a millimeter of a problem. That was it just the tiniest one step margins
And that's hero winning the round and it's also the worst player that you could have missed the guy who's 31 and 11
right now the guy who is he's making his money he made a dent I would say last
year the last year he was playing incredibly well but we were mostly
talking about Rooksic as the guy
has taken that mantle what a legend a chance for the coaches to talk once
again a tactical break that this is crazy it could make all the difference
as worth mentioning as well for alpha you're sat there looking at the
absolutely humble you're gonna make it break some more records today well he
sat watching hero and much less OTs than he did it approach of that 33 kill
record he's two away the way he's playing he might just smash that record
dude today alpha's gonna watch his own record get broken against him that's
tough well if you're he's plus 13th on the first bus I thought I thought wow the
series record
Okay, that's the I was thinking I'm sure I'm sure sociable has had more
Historically kickoff this year this year kill leader or a kill max K max as it's called
It's Alphanzus from the same map from the Corode 1816 if I'm not mistaken
There's a hell of a long game, but here we are heroes to away from
Pushing up sorry, sorry sorry sorry
Shit, thank you for something
Appreciate it. There's a tier three as well. Thank you, Rusty man. I've had their fair share of all the times. I appreciate you
Only sorry
Could have seen on radar
the guy. Oh what a kill though. What an important kill. What an important kill by Shav. Honestly
guys listen to be fair whatever the result I feel like Navi deserved to kind of win now.
or no. Like they should have already won. And at 1311. Like when they had their fucking
chances to grow 9-3 up. Like just give it to Navi at this point. Like get a hero specifically.
Like hero deserves it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly correct, correct. Hero deserves it. Yes,
but also in terms of some of the players on that other side today gifted over
now be you know now we're going to see that why you got to say that these teams
will hit that lower bracket after a close-fought match after opportunities
taken and we'll have to march through the teams that come up to beat them
not gonna be an easy task to make it all the way to the end and only have one
opportunity this is a middle bracket to Navi this is another attempt to cause
they've struggled to do that thus far
moments away less than a second away in regulation wow this is okay they're
fighting for showers they're trying to fight for showers time is ticking down
So fight for shower, fight for short. They're trying to fight the hero though.
One of the worst men!
Did they TP?
They get TP?
Now they lost one?
TP down! They got it!
Wait, they're planting!
Heroes alone! They planted!
Welcome to my world!
with either and he's gonna wrap all the way back through the spawn I mean this
is a win no to strike for Fnatic. Awesome, what a kill. Because the 1 stands strong and I look at
how deep it goes as well. Okay, it's hero and root sick guys. If they don't win now, it's over.
These are their two best players. They're going to have to challenge him and they have to deal
with Ruxik limited vision barely any health they hurt the shot though at least they might
And that's rocks it down a chance for fanatic to carry on. It's
Yet it's so close every time it's that duo again. Yes, the same two players
The re-took the last time. Oh, yeah, it is. It's literally the same two guys
It's a possible scenario, walking through a flight, but the car's in Austin's other side, and still come out of our life!
Maybe, we always talk about crashes, but I'm looking at that kind of crashes, that's potentially the duo you have to fear the most.
I can't believe it, Blyat.
Well, Navi, I know that we've lost this sugar-worthy one.
Slipping through their fingers.
That's gonna eat away at you.
Phenomenal reveal by crashes as well. If that doesn't land this game plays out
Now now I don't even know who deserves this. I feel like my team should just take the young go to lowers
the loud vacanage to find it and
the duo of
Kekash like okay sure growing one
One of those rounds is fine as this but throwing two close-out rounds is crazy in the same way
Oh my god, man, why are they rotated I mean, I think the post plan was fine
Because he had biker ult.
He wanted an ult, he had to bomb down and ult in a really good spot.
I think it was fine.
Oh my god, rooster.
It's a free bomb plant though.
Oh, it's a god spot.
Kayak gets a free gas kill.
Legit free kill.
Wait.
here waiting his strikes is just a moment
oh no
social advantages to drop it
oh no
alpha
but yes
send out someone
the molly left to play with their remosors
good if using clack flea
it's gonna be diffused
fired out thankfully
that buys a precious time
oh molly not your molly sorry
that way diffuse crashies
he's got his work cut out for
three bodyguards defending
as the defuse goes through
ass
and then
another chance
to close out this series
to beat their rivals from day one of Valorant, let alone, and we're going back to party
parrots when it comes to Angel, but in partnership a record that is stacked against Na'Vi, maybe
about to change. Yeah, that's a lot of babies with how this game has gone. Nice, good shit.
Wonderful retake. Even with all that post plan utility, every single fight is a 1v1 in that
But their last post plant was incredible. They flipped the entire site. They happened to be in CT spawn
15 to 14
one retake with two seconds to spare through a viper's pit, the one before that with 0.9
they've been cutting it close but each time they've managed to bring backgrounds and kai
at clock
oh you're just dead, he's just dead, as soon as he dies he's dead
he was caught by sociable
he could flash and maybe get out
Never mind. The opera has to kill it.
Holy shit.
Is this a fake? No, this is an actual hit.
Yeah, he did his job. It's fine.
Oh, it's over, right? This round's over for sure.
Nice kill on the cause
Both teams are out of strats at this point. There's playing
kill off Becash and I don't even think he's gonna get that thumb nope in fact
Becash will put him down 15 15 maybe going into a deficit each time but
nobody just can't close out this game this is a good game yeah give us some
more OTs in this for now be at least it's a good game so close and after
I can't believe here I missed this.
I can't compete with that punishment being a bit unforgiving but...
Yeah bro, yeah bro, I'm sorry bro.
A number of rounds they've been so close to connecting that...
C9 vs. NVDA versions, no dead ass though.
Like you actually dead ass.
Back to square footing, yet again...
Thing is though, definitely like obviously better players.
the better and the same old story and a very very slow approach for that exact
reason both teams being very cautious about giving away that opening pick but
the problem is when you do that you got to kind of telegraph where you're going
or where you're looking for those picks with utility like here we see the
prowler put through on bathroom and then an immediate focus on the
once they make noise over there hopefully Philo pushes up gets a bit
curious in bathroom it can be dropped by kayak okay so fanatic heard that these
guys were cleared short so fanatic is gonna go short I mean they know because
they know that Navi has survived over rotated beat based off the info false
info might now fade as in crashes is pressuring be more to keep 3d
work six now spotted them looking to cross right Austin is just gonna die here
they're doing correct
um brother
brother
okay, down again
leaving just sociable standing, Fnatic might be about to have their first chance at victory
unless sociable can pull off a miracle. The first comes easy but the next is tougher.
A shot?
That cashed down as well. The player above surely he doesn't expect an alpha yet will make sure
this Turkish brother gets no further.
You're next.
Now Fnatic have a chance to close.
will they falter at this hurdle I mean it's been a back-and-forth affair
attacking rounds the fans of shot really saw it normally when we get to this point
it's like well both teams are really good on the defense first you go and
attack that's the team that wins this been back and forth and there has been no
predictability to this is we move into yet another round number 30 to and this
Shit, it's by the end now.
If this goes 16-16, I'm not quite sure.
That was a two clean up around her fanatic.
This is what we talk about.
We talk of rivalries, a cult classic.
The fanatic could look to end.
Wait, they still kept to it.
There's still two B.
Over there in second B, young Booster.
Two for two.
Three alive. Plenty of time for the post plant.
Oh my gosh, you're playing him. They're right.
They're right.
Oh, snacked a little head.
Oh, they think there's a lurker. They think someone lurked in.
The trade.
Hero.
And the hero to save me now.
Grish Grish Grish!
Noooooooo!
Jesus!
What a shot!
I need that slow down!
I need slow down!
He did not just do that to him!
That was nasty!
Lucky!
That's perfect sensitivity control, man.
What does it look like in the bottom bracket?
Okay, wait, so it's going to be Chromatic versus Vitality likely, right?
series I have to say oh that final shot from crash he's that winded me time
actually Joey took the wind out of my nose I was a nice ass shot I will not
get out that was a banger ass shot what's your beats per minute how fast is
the heart racing from nine three up oh yeah this is definitely the worst game
trials ever happened like guaranteed you couldn't get anything going in any of
the maps. Just unlucky.
Insane from here though. Insane from, look at this crowd. Plus 13.
on forward a wonderful start to the show we're less even crazier is he played
into the next matchups the weird agents to get these skills because that was
definitely a match to be watching today how are you feeling after that one how's
your heart rate going now I'm gonna be shaking with stress you but yeah
Actually a good game
Again, they come back we come back and it's a good match. I didn't it was a good match very entertaining
I haven't heard David is he lost in 2016 or we show up against C1
Do you find yourselves like in these positions where you try to rage bit, buddy
And then you kind of lose it and you bring it back
What's the mental and the comps like for the whole team when it's kind of like this yoyoing effect on the maps?
I mean
There is no yoyo. I guess like we just like keep the head up
we don't give up and we just like give everything even if it's like the round is closed big stressful
We ending the round at 10 second maybe and now we just like don't give up. So let's talk about you on breeze because
I don't even answer that's the question you on breeze on the jet you guys go for a more of an aggressive composition
How was it to have your jet here in tier one? Are we gonna see it again?
I have no clue if we're gonna see it again, but this is my first realist on VCT and
I'm not fully happy about my drill is on the first game, but
Still good. We have some rep to the world review and we will see
I mean then the next match that you have it's either gonna be
But for sure those to be those two v2s within the decal twice and in the last one be one
X Fnatic in Vitality, so I will save Vitality for the boys and yeah, just Vitality.
There really is a chance for you to prove yourself there.
Yes, sir.
Alright, well thank you so much for your time, congratulations once again.
Thank you so much.
We're gonna be heading over to break and we'll be back to dissect this down and with our
second matchup of today, Vitality against Jax. So stay tuned.
Do the two people still run Carpenter Viber online?
No.
This shot bro, BANG!
That was nasty.
Are you ready for GX or Vitality?
Vitality.
You only got 10 adds, that's it?
That's too little, brother.
This part, this is crazy by the way. Where is it? Wait, where the fuck is it? Not refreshed.
This is crazy stat line. I don't remember seeing 17 and 4 before. Actually I think I've
seen something similar to this. This is also crazy. This is crazy. This is crazy. This
is crazy. But not super crazy. It's not like end of the world crazy. But Shao for sure
It's crazy because he never has like bad games like that
No, yeah, he actually canceled hero out like hard
That's okay, they still have one more life
Honestly, Navi have no one but to blame but the missiles but themselves
The round out like long be the 2v2 at long be they have a post plant
They lose it so it lose the game or to tie the game
They would have won it right there. Two game-winning post-plants and they lose both.
That's unacceptable. You cannot lose both.
How do you think it is being a fanatic fan?
Um, I mean, it's a pretty reliable team to be a fan of, but at the same time, they also are not playing their best right now.
because as they say they are scaling up, so whenever that reaches its peak then we'll see.
It's a hard attack every game, yeah, I mean, come on, bro.
They, they, for that I kind of have every chance to win.
They got to have a better defense side.
defense side they figured it out like really really late but they do need to
fight for things more like showers slash short a hookah or long these are
fundamental things that they need to keep in mind I think this was the round I
didn't understand what the fuck they were doing because they played sorry I
think it was here it was here here both rounds they played 2a3b everyone
passive and just ate the exec let them have the post plant for free what do you
think is gonna happen afterwards just gonna win the post or the retake they
are winning but it's the way they're winning it's stressful yeah who do you
have qualifying from EMEA BBL I don't know man one of okay
BBL giant X
No BBL vitality and giant X
No
BBL vitality and Navi because they'll bring it back team like when I get some trophies and stuff
Actually, well trophies channel mates
Keep coming you guys think general mates keep that that that these performances up
you really think so this guy mini is just gonna keep farming I don't know bro I
just know BBL I don't know my answer is I don't know I know BBL that's it when
the team is low energy I just do I don't care either you're talking about being
able to close maps out without having your opponent make comebacks I mean you
haven't really had a chance to go back and watch the game but from being in that
position. What do you think the biggest issues are right now?
I think biggest issue when you get come back, everyone's getting
stressed and stress makes you more mistakes. Like normally we
don't do these things on Prax, but when it comes to the
official then when we're getting stressed, we just do the
peaks. We don't do it or when we weave. Sometimes we shouldn't
weave normally like we don't weave in 10 of 10, but we just
weave an official because we have stress.
Well, stress there. I mean, Mini had a very, very big question
about Breeze specifically, he was really sad when he didn't see you on a certain age in there.
Yeah, I thought you'd be on... you were on stage before, and then we all knew that you probably
wouldn't be on stage today, and I was like, how far to put on chat on chamber? And then we're like,
wait, they're playing chat, they're playing your room, but Alpha's not there, what are your thoughts?
I think this is interview with Minan. It wasn't my decision to play Viper.
And I can't speak or I'll get in trouble
Introduce your cats to each other and just got another kitten
Behind the door at first you can put like a fence like a net netting
In your doorway and then keep them separated but let them see each other and smell each other
Yeah, I think that's the main reason
A door of x thinking about the maps that you had won on raise versus the maps that you'd won on other
Yes, so you're you're for slowly introduce them one for let them sniff each other
from underneath the
Room, but what you're saying is that this morning?
Three or four days I think is general and then you can test them like in the same room see how they are if they're still hissing you just
Try again, but not for now because
We don't have time right now, but if you separate them again and again and again until they start kissing at each other
We might do that
But for now I'm just gonna keep it because I think as window fix they put a temporary fix in this morning very self-aware
So right now it's not I like that
I mean
Like the upcoming matches because of course they will like fully fix it in the next couple days
It happened in the past as well
You now have either vitality or GX that you're gonna be going up against
I mean both of these rosters have also shown promise
promise are you worried do you think do you have it's taking like 30 business days you're telling me
my favorite is giants because vitality is playing with someone who is standing
into sandara comes thanks and giant things didn't change any roster like from last year i think
they are they are better opponent but i mean i would like to play versus frantic academy as well
Wow
Let's see I mean that's the next mushroom that we have coming up you're talking about GX and having time together
Do you think that's something that you guys would also have benefited from like more time on your end?
Hopefully good
Even many said he was impressed we just work
Yeah, but until they make it to like for the rounds. I'm not gonna have anything I'm proud and watch this thing
I wonder games. I have no opinion and we have a key kept now
We can have a bit of an chill out. Yeah, and you can watch this game as well and you know see how that's going
Well, I want to say thank you so much for sitting down with us and having a little bit of a chat because we also have to
Talk about the next game and you said you think GX is gonna win
So guys I wanna have your perspective on start with you Billy in regards to the vitality GX matchup
Well, who do I think is gonna win? No, we're going straight. Yeah, I think GX is what's up
I think Vitality have a lot to prove right? I think that they need to bounce back from those super team hype
And I think giant X are starting to build up a bit of momentum now. So I think yeah in my opinion
It's it's gonna be a big
So yeah, I think as well when we think back to some of the members
Especially when you think back to the champs run that BBL East
Yes, literally yeah
Perfect there on this team, but they won't a grudge match brewing here. I think potentially I think that's a perfect set up
See, I knew you'll be able to handle that question
Thank you, Billy, but the grudge matches really what we're gonna be talking about here
And we've already touched upon both of these rosters over the last couple of weeks talk about their strengths their weaknesses
But I feel like this really at this point is the ultimate test for both of them
Yeah, exactly how many times have we seen RQ do the same thing lower bracket that they were able to deep up once they have
regionally had a little bit of push I've seen them have good results that's the
first time I've watched with my eyeballs then play that day in general is the
day of the teams that we so yes if they can maintain that place out and play
that well they will win like they have but they don't they've now got footage
to kind of come away and improve week on week and I think we have seen that a
little bit from fanatic and now it's time for these teams to basically the same
like vitality last week yeah a lot of water view let's talk about the ball
What are you doing for a living except for streaming?
Well, I'm sitting here streaming 8-10 hours of Wash Parties.
What else do I have in the day that I would be doing?
I assume when he says for a living, he means like for work?
I think by the time you go into a base, you're a bit mentally boomed and I think that some of the players specifically Darka has really struggled individually when it got to her base as well.
Like a nice McDonald's shift? Like nighttime? Maybe?
It feels like he's still trying a bit too hard to be super aggressive in moments where he doesn't need to be.
Like he's not like 2021 anymore where he literally needs to carry his team.
And some of the tendencies where he's a little bit too aggressive works very well.
Stream operators because I know how much that is and I know that you guys are stream sniping me and trying to take my loot
I think it's time. It's my fucking loot and it's staying mine
Yeah, I think as well in general when we're looking at dirt just specifically last week was not the strongest of performances
And we highlighted him as more of like the spearhead in terms of success at five or excuse
I literally watch a lot of people in our game stream sniped every day of the people with less years than I would have
And they have like so much to give and the question that for me is
Without like 10 pointing out individuals what really we're just insecure because of how bad you are
Okay, I was told us how bad you are it's okay
we came in with a really good game plan and
I think that BBR is aggression they couldn't
That well on Haven and I'm gonna came to a base. Honestly, they picked like vitality picked the best
Oh god the bottom back this upside was seeing it looks a little bit peculiar to me
They looked very well intentioned, but to me it didn't seem to be the correct read on the map like they were
Blurred, thank you everyone.
... and the middle setups against the team that you know are probably just gonna rush into you when Xtrem is
And so I'm very curious to see about that going forward and the Vito, the Vito didn't seem to get that much value
And then Wale didn't seem to get much value and seems like Dirk has comfort
So a lot of questions on that at this point.
Okay, and we actually have an interview as well with Dirk already in terms of like
Where these bots come from?
Last week against VBL, so we'll catch up with him and see what he thought about it.
Your guess is as good as mine, then.
I don't know.
Durka, welcome.
A very important matchup today as you're finding yourself in this middle bracket.
I know we're like looking at the matchups for the entertaining,
but we gotta do the interview, right?
So walk me through last week specifically with Fyzel.
Think of the prime.
What happened?
I think that's holiday bucket.
I have to read for that holiday.
We all played really well.
I think like we had two good matches, like against Orphan Liquid.
I feel like we did kind of like a lot of mistakes still, but we didn't pay as much attention to it because we won and we were feeling confident.
But I think we were kind of like just exposed it a little bit and then it was just easy to see like what's actually going wrong and then fix it and kind of like shift focus on that.
And I think for this week's preparation we like I got really excited because I feel like we actually fixed a lot of problems.
So now it's like really excited to get into this match now.
this much. That's really good to hear. So it's kind of like that wake up call that you
needed to make sure that you're looking at some of these smaller mistakes. You're talking
about preparation and it makes you very excited for this week. Anything that you focused on
individually that you think will make the biggest difference.
Just just kind of like, I don't know how to say it, keeping distance.
Or your modern day every both.
I thought about a peek sometimes and started to basically do this, but I think just playing more with teammates, giving that energy and just kind of like having fun, but doing it all together, I think is like the most important, of course every team says it, but for me just like, again, getting excited because we work together.
I thought these mistakes mostly from lack of team cam
Yeah, but most most teams problems are that as well lack of team cam
Lack of good comms like very efficient comms in situations like double peaking
Retake utility all those things a little excited and you overpeat
How are you making sure that that translates from scrims to the server because a lot of times
Teams will say like yeah, we focus on this in scrims, but then the issue sometimes is like that this connect
What are you guys focusing on? Are you a bungy leader? I literally just talk so much shit to those skins when I killed them
I think that I literally just when they're down crawling. I'm just walking behind them
I don't need to do anything extra. That's one. But I think for me, it's also just
Again playing with teammates and knowing like I feel like when you get like humbled by someone
I mean an official kind of thing like oh, maybe I should not do that more and
And then you just much peanut sometimes kind of like know what mistakes not to make anymore
I think we just had to be talked through the team and just like
Everyone kind of like locked in
Is ready to play and especially me I think I had a good week for myself. What is going on in chat?
All right, I'm looking forward to seeing that on the server. Thank you so much for your time. Good luck with your much today
They're gonna be heading over to you guys
All right a lot of hype and a lot of expectation setting here coming out from the side of Thurka
Hey Bobcats, do you have?
I've done a lot of things, he's like 12.
I think he's eventually also aware from some of the mistakes that have been made.
10, 12?
Really, if anything, this is promising.
Oh, fucking no.
Yeah, I think so. I think as well, we need to like remember that this is a new roster
that's been put together for VitalA. They are playing with the stand-in as well when it comes to unfake.
So yeah, I think give them a try.
Bobcats, are you ready?
Having the upset is better now.
Depends. Depends where you're going.
I like the way he reflected on all of that. It seems...
The kind of response you will get from someone who has experienced this, there,
Like not panicking about last week
Is our fun solo? Yeah, cuz you have free kits so you can learn the game
I said, it's very very new friendly in that
You just keep free kidding to learn the map learn the guns talks that there cuz professionalism
You don't like lose anything professional in general from the side of vitality because coming through and saying like yeah
We won the first two maps and we got overconfident and didn't really look at the small little mistakes because we got away with it
And this was the wake-up call that they needed so great for them that they are in that middle bracket and not in that lower
Bracket because they still have a little bit more of that. Yeah, you can also be extremely friendly
Which I'm just not I kill everyone
Actually, that's not true like if I if someone has the jump on me and they run up behind me and they go
Hey, I think the raider will be or whatever and I'll turn around
And I won't shoot them like if they if they had the jump on me and didn't shoot me and they're friendly
I won't shoot them. That's the only time
100% every single day
That applies for the pro players. Do I fake friendly? Never
That's a broad shot
From the side of vitality a lot of promise coming into today, and then I want to flip it
I look at I've actually been asked if I'm friendly and I just say no
And then they stop talking I killed them and they still get upset. Why are you even asking them? Okay?
Why are you asking from friendly if you're not okay with the answer no?
I think realistically for me, I have this weird kind of narrative about a team that doesn't make changes that I rarely see them
continue to progress in a linear fashion. I did that. I think the giant
Extracting clearly PvP team snuck up on them. They sounded panic and we just
Extracted them. Now the game is too fun guys. Everyone should try it at least once.
If you're gonna wait somehow Sam convinced the in my entire group of friends that the game was bad
And I just blows me away
Somehow they all believed him and they are they all like it this version of the team
Well, sorry in 2026 GX
There are instances now where flickers playing a lot more bite and our it doesn't have that is a bad game though
There's a difference between it being a bad game and you being bad at it flickers playing very well
There's a difference between those two you get that right
I think so I think coming into the you can get better we saw giant x playing a lot of double in a share that have kind of been their
Identity I had said coming into 2026. I want to see flick this by more of that by first
So I think if ara can continue to have a good performance without having your mod got it right
Let's lock in for what?
The next time up is a really good sign for this giant X roster and it is the perfect first extraction shooter
It really is like it's just fast-paced
No, the no the gameplay loop just got boring. It's
A 3D game with brain that's be good out and it was we progress through the better games
I don't know. What do you mean? What do you mean a gameplay loop?
What are you? What else do you want from that game an extraction shooter? What are you looking for?
In that sense, you're kind of disagreeing with what alpha mentioned earlier where I'm actually curious
Like more content? Like what?
Yeah, what do you do when you get ballerins?
I lost interest in Arc Raiders when I stopped playing for a week and I felt like I was
so, so behind compared to others that I couldn't catch up. Dude, if you ever feel like you're
behind in that game just freak it you will eventually have a run where you will just be up
just freak it that's the point you don't lose anything and you gain you only gain
you either gain experience and you learn if you die and if you if you if you get out great
I love Arc Raiders, I'm genuinely a loot goblin so it never gets old exactly, me too.
But it's also satisfying just killing people and taking their shit and hearing them just
fucking spam slurs man.
I love it. Golden, thank you for the prime, bro. And, uh, adronisius, adronisius? Thank you for the 20 months, man. Appreciate it.
Nah, bro. When they get upset, I get so happy.
Like, there are some guys that are upset that are just, like, really men, and I feel bad for those guys.
But, like, the people that insta-start slurring, I get so happy.
I keep them alive for a little bit longer, let them fucking squirre.
Sometimes I even lie and say, do you want to get res and just lie and like give them some semblance of hope.
It's so fun.
Fuck these guys, man.
Yeah, it's a crazy thing to see that you can state your Prime and IGL because we've seen a lot of times where players step into the IGLing rule and kind of fall off.
So for them to continue this hot streak, that's really important.
But again, also, I want to kind of such a plan expectations when it comes to mechanical expectations.
Can expect sure from map videos if we're expecting something new today because we've seen some changes coming through at least composition wise
Can you fucking true art? I know I will get changed by you guys. I know I will
There's literally a timer at the top of my screw. I think like obviously when you're pet from free street
You're thinking of your map though in terms of composition changes. That's annoying. I don't want to get signed
I want to enjoy playing the game my life
I don't want to sit there and have to worry that my chatters will just be in my game
I can't lie I would snipe you. I understand. I would snipe you. If I was like, I expect you're a stripper, I watch. I would snipe you too. I get it.
Sniping in Arc Raider specifically, there's three different spawn points. It's so easy to do.
to do. It's actually like impossible to not suck. It's so easy. Yeah, it has to hide
screen for a while though. Why I'm doing ignoring delay top?
What do you call that?
They say you're bad, I carry you. Whatever you do in your life, buddy.
Whatever you do, I'm better at you.
You're guaranteed.
He doesn't like to stream delay. Yeah, what the fuck?
Oh, you guys are gonna put delay on that thing, you know.
30 second delay even 15 second delay is annoying when I'm watching I guess for
arc it would be fine I barely be looking at chat if I'm playing arc so I could
do delay vitality against GX this is our middle bracket here VCT
we already touched upon a little bit in regards to whether or not we are
expecting some changes in the map pool but it is going to be abyss breeze and
Haven abyss from GX also
Also guys, I have literally been down to play art on stream
But Sam and Ryan dodge
If they are down I will play with them end up losing
I don't have a duo or trio to play art
Giant X play that hand and I think as well when we think about this is that kind of composition that giant X was playing that bridge
Oh, I don't know how we felt about it. So we're gonna always ask for you. No, he doesn't
No, nobody
All right, is this in shooting right now, I really like the way they pray freeze and it really suits them with the
Yeah, not something we've seen from GX either and then kind of not right our final map and that is going to be
Haven Haven would like her thoughts on this one Billy. I mean, it's a pretty standard map
It's been in a pool since literally day one. So both of these rosters should feel very comfortable. Yeah, I have to agree
I think as well though, like this is a little bit of a sore spot for vitality considering that they lost against BBL last week
too not to be a complete dumpster on vitality
But the fact that they get two maps in here that they lost is not ideal
So yeah, I want to see the lessons that they would have learned from that. I think that's really important. It's just like
BBL looks fantastic and it's a very good game to go away from and learn what kind of mistakes
they're making.
And what did BBL really punish in terms of-
I think separate is good.
It seems like an IVRG is an energy and Zen, and Zen he said, it's not Zen and like that's
not the most braindead thing ever.
That's right buddy.
Work on it.
Azurka has already highlighted whereas for GFS out of things, just another day in the
office.
What's the time of your placement now?
It's almost 3pm.
But we didn't even get to see it that much because-
After this, it is the gym time.
So I'm hoping that we get a third tier and get a team with that Vita with that.
Wukong was really fun to play, did.
Just like questions of the...
Expedition 33 was really fun and that's it.
Right now we're gonna play on.
We're gonna win a League Stratz for...
I never knew that, that I did not see that one coming.
But I want to bring it back now to our first map, first events of the competition.
We're gonna have a BIS.
When we're looking at it from the JNX perspective, already such a fun how excellent it is.
For Vitality, not so much against BBL, so do we think there are going to be any competition...
It's trying to work to visit
Not at this time
A specific reason you don't play ball anymore. I've explained this like a thousand times the game is literally so fucking boring
You know, it's funny. I feel like most people that are in my stream don't even play Val
But I could be wrong about that. We should do a poll
Yeah, I think the way they head-to-head is really interesting for both teams here
I think from on the beat oh as well kind of left a lot to be desired when we saw them play
They used to play and they don't anymore because there's nothing to play for that this time round
I think I'd already kind of touched on the breach in Tejo on the other side as well and how that's gonna
Think about it. What is there to play for in now or it?
It feels more like an attack comp, but at the same time, they don't have the soap.
So the operator, once Vitality goes to that defense, I think it's going to be really important against Giant X.
Yeah, I'm not sure that we get the defense of Giant X in Kingdom.
Any time I've ever played Valorant, it's for a specific goal.
When I've played ranked, it's because there was nothing else to stream,
and that was like our main game, and me and Sam were planning on competing.
So you want to like, stay solid at the game, right?
But once you retire from the game that you competed in,
it going back to it and playing feels pointless.
Literally just pointless. Open the game.
It's just like, OK, what am I doing this for?
Think about it.
Take their cause word is gospel.
You have the most stupid viewer I've ever seen.
No fun on you.
I respect you, but your viewer are just incredible stupid.
Yeah, I don't know. I don't see why not I think for me like as well
I I'd already highlighted the kind of whaley had to have how much value of both of these pairs gonna get out
Well, I think ara has been you know, why are you guys retweeting you guys are those years
And I think Darko is one of the kind of higher performing players on the operator and kickoff so far
Yeah, we also can ask our casters what they think of these compositions, especially because there's no
Why are you sunbathing? It's nice, bruh.
How much Cairo loves his KO, so how's the Cairo? Let us know what you...
You're gonna let us talk to us about... You're gonna let us talk about us that way.
I mean, I feel like you guys can defend yourselves. I'm just kind of mediating this conversation.
I'm just letting you guys know what he said.
I just love KO, but there's no KO here to talk about, so we'll talk about other stuff instead.
We'll talk about how as a... This is a very important matchup, because you look at GX,
Look at Vitality and it's a lot of history here.
There absolutely is.
Both of these teams were dropped to the lower bracket
by our team.
Do you get tired of answering the same questions every day?
Sometimes.
Different stages in the tournament.
GX coming up.
Sometimes, yes.
The big win against the Heretics team
that they failed to beat in the past.
Depends on the questions.
Some I understand.
Setback on the VCT stage.
How do they respond?
Two of the maps which were in the same pool
as that game in front of them today?
Oh yeah, Arsenal to Wembley, of course, bro.
Alright, we got a game.
A B.S., awesome pick.
What do you have, one in a series? A Vitality.
A close 2-0 though.
I'm a go Vitality because I have to root for them.
My brain kind of tells me it's going to be GX, but I'm not 100% sure.
I'm a blow by heart today though, by Tali 2-0.
Close 2-0. Close.
Yeah, you better fucking run, buddy.
That's yumpy, you're fucking fighting, yumpy.
Let's see how we play this post-point.
Awesome. We are playing the most common angles.
Never mind, you have to keep it up.
He deals with them handguns
And he lives
He's dead
I both removed at the cost of his own life
An advantage for vitality
And one which they wrong with
Oh my god
What a start
Get on the kill list
What a start
You're big
On what was a brilliant pistol from the beast
Yeah, it was a fantastic way to get things kicked off
Very clean vitality
I got that safe way on
Let's all do no problems
And coming back in GX just did not anticipate
the disrespect that vitality showed them you've got to consider that what happened
with chronicle and fanatic pretty bad fallout we have in the region pretty bad fallout um
every player wanted to keep him but then he started beefing with each and every player
one at a time because he wanted to leave that badly winless again eventually just
in the last stage of the previous year of course means a lot for the i don't know it wasn't like
that don't punch anybody in this side which would deny their first global event right at the gate
in that lower final. He just sort of like
there is history here in spreading rumors on the team.
OK, there's a conversation about last year,
but a conversation to be had about this year as well.
Me and you at Great Lenses,
everyone else joined in the conversation about whether this GX team
will be the gatekeeper side and whether they're going to be the ones
that qualify vitality super.
Wow, is that how you just full read the stack off the one take at a Santiago spot,
Oh boy, GionX is kind of ahead though. They're all gonna be here. No, don't get ECOED. Don't get ECOED.
Nooooo!
Nice.
Fair five.
Vitality getting through this with little to no
Yeah, they're right
Spakes still not done
But time getting more
The body's been seen
And I mean, then keeping snorkeling
Nice, nice, nice, nice
Great
Is they double up the roam code
Really strong start for Vitality
And with
This is GX mappest
Standing as well
This bonus is gonna be looking
20 strong
Let's get eight
I'm gonna ask for eight
Now that I won this all
I'm gonna give him an opportunity to kick on
And not got any good
It's great to see Durka
Back in form
Yeah, there are eco kills
You hate this caster a lot
Just tuned out the casters
At what point in this season will Vitality be the actual team that depends on their progress buddy
position from Ara, the refractor looks as if it is just going to expire.
Also depends how many games they get to play, the more games they get to play the better
they'll be.
It's the first time and makes West Side know of it.
Yep, having to respect the utility put as well.
Vitality immediately fell this B, so GX need to be careful.
Really strong insert here from Yampi as well, it's just a question of where Vitality want
to go later into the round.
Set on this be execution or is it just a fake through the drone?
It's looking like a B split. Yeah, I was worried a minute for
Oh
What alert this is though
On top and vitality on top
And profit making sure gx know it
So without
God, man, that's gonna be a 4-0 start here and that will be vitality up to three
Howl said in the pregame
Before the bbl game that it would be won by whoever was in the highest
Sider comes in from March 4th
So next not after this one all guns blazing
Do you think BBL will go undefeated?
I do.
I think they'll be convinced.
I don't know if they'll win like 3-0, but I think they'll win.
Do you even see anything?
Yeah.
Honestly.
Oh.
I mean, that seems to be the storyline for the past three rounds and I don't want to see like it's very early on right
But there is some worry you are so wrong
Okay
Retake but vitality
Wanted to set up. I mean if you're vitality right and your coach pal who like
Yeah, I know Melissa has long many times, especially in the mornings, you gotta like, stretch and vibrate while you're stretching, you know what I mean? That's a good stretch.
Great, they even primed it.
Will you play Ark with Tarik on stream? Yeah, of course. I'll be down.
I'm down to run 3 kids with Tarik. Fuck it.
take a they may struggle to react with yas lower saying that it's just the
three bodies here for now seems a fightality not product of no no no that's
what's on the last time down med if you remember all the way into the pistol room
but so many rounds ago all five of GX group together to train have you ever
made up a chat just if you want to answer something already I'm waiting but
Oh, actually, I had a joke one time. It was like very obviously sarcastic.
Okay, please do not make a please, please, Chronicle, please.
All reliable Chronicle.
Nevermind. We lost.
Yes!
It's beautiful. Didn't even see the Prophet playing.
Okay, that's super convincing but 4-0, 4-0
Is it greedy for me to ask for 10 rounds or something?
that he can buy a little bit more time with the gravity well but GX get good value from
the one rifle they were able to hold on to here through our uh and uh cool what will
be considered a pretty early time out by their standards.
You asked for 12 no, 12 is crazy.
That last round you can see them trying to retake his 5 overall I'm thinking to myself
do you know what this is the best chance they've had but still vitality are coming out on top
Just because a whole whale drilled the earth
Head to head that we can take a look at 12 of the sea breaches away
with the context of last year as well is both yumpy and cloud the games highlighted from yumpy's time on bbl
Cloud of course kept with the rest of this gx roster as they were on your face
It's fun dude
both the former
current mib are probably when this uh
uh is QQ
It'd be closer than people think though. I think people think vitality is like mid
Yeah, they're pretty fucking good
Yeah, he almost had like a great year as a whole would as I feel as if for cloud
It was a strong split to and the question that will be asking of giant X
I think is was that a one-hit wonder split or are we actually gonna see them now in
2026 kickoff and actually start to be a top contender for the region
Yeah, I think it's also a question of solving the issue at the root cause the change of system
Yeah, the players in that right really on the GX side. I mean the Sun's like right there
The highest ADR that too run they would see one player
Real max
How he factors into this round where vitality are set up for a quick be pop
All five always been good for it would be our my guest
I'm really under pressure push that
good your rule then
What a shotcrawl.
Yo!
Wait, maybe I can last for 12 rounds.
Ranveer, think of the problem.
Raven here, think of the problem.
Ranveer, I called you.
Turn to your Indian guy.
They just had Chronicles cross here so Sonic they even try to see
Absolutely not and why should you you want to keep something for the next round?
I'll be vitality up to five
I have to say they're getting clean. What an ult that was the nice shot by Chronicles well
I felt like it was the difference between seeing cypher at such a high level with credit
R is even getting no impacts didn't give him one free kill
There was sort of a passing grade I suppose but here on the attack side and with
the game and we're going to
get to the next time. It's
about the use of the all. Um
it's played to perfection
really liked how aggressive he
wanted to get there. And GX
just with no answers coming
off the back of their time out.
It's going to be an awkward
buy. For them to say the least
to see if they can rebound
early, but that vitality
street continues. It does with
that being straight after the
giant next time out is worrying
of thinking about the really ultimate and the Amina trap.
Alright.
But there's no one coming as we...
Good.
This is something that Vitality have to be receptive of.
You know, in the BBL games at times, it felt like they were getting run over by some of that aggression.
Hey, no proc here.
No proc.
They are patient, knowing that there are rifles to resist.
And with three players looking towards the end...
Yeah, they came in today. That's why the blondes are all the way up because they were working on it
But it's only a temporary fix until they can come back in a couple days and then fully fix it
They have to replace the window though
So it looks to be a beast split and GX have an idea about this being all the way up
That's how the roster is kind of insane. Yeah, they are. They actually are
That's where Vitality began to take the timing. Yeah, it's our as early as position
It just depends, this whole year just depends on who hits their peek.
And well, like, obviously that would be the, that would be ending the best team.
But it's just so many, like, candidates for that, this year.
How's the weather there?
Oh, I don't know.
How is this so clean?
I don't understand, they just kill whole black players.
It's a comprehensive start
Yeah, I'm not gonna lie. This is looking like vitality super steam at its best
Really nice calling from Yampi
My dumb ass for saying GX. I think you're just a dumb ass in general
That's all right, that's a conversation for another dish. That's not really even my problem
We really see GX going disrupt what vitality want to do because for the most part GX have been really passive and allowed vitality to default and take the space that they want to.
GX wins it all, yep. He just keeps going.
I'm used to expect from a team that's fundamentally sound as GX.
Alright, well at this point Vitality, sorry GX has to get aggressive. Like I'm going rounds.
They must start getting aggressive.
aggressive maps here and that's just going to let these guys play you process
hello same to be said for GX and their game against heritage
haven wait am I in discord bro get the fuck out of here
I'm alive!
He'll live a little longer!
Oh, look at that!
Yeah, it's just a bow, but it's...
Road just joined the bot!
And right now, it's really...
I'm setting the shots for GX!
He goes, hello!
Like a lost puppy!
Everyone, everyone wait hello? Wait how many did you guys say hello back?
When you guys heard hello, how many of you said hello back?
We actually see Giant X trying to...
Oh my god we're actually gonna see Giant X go for a second time out because we're gonna have to see them change up the place like you are.
You are brain dead, buddy
What are you gonna do?
You have to get aggressive at this point you have just reached all or sorry you have breached you have
On the same tail you must get aggressive. You're not chamber and we lay pretty aggressive
Two times in one half, what choice do they really have bro? 7-0 down
This might be a 12-0
11-1
built, Shoji, I mean, having what, one year and a kickoff under your build?
100 different from you, I think, 13 years as a controller.
What do you want?
Yeah, look, there's a lot of players, I think, in the league that have only joined in just
the last year or so, as rookies that have already surpassed that, um, sociable, Kayak,
of course, a couple that spring to mind immediately.
Yeah, but they're on the front lanes.
This guy's meant to be played on the back lanes.
And I have to say the improvements to his astra as well of course have only helped support
I had money.
Here's the big all important round for giant X the change in setup
Features our as operator as a focal point a little bit of a fake B bomb site while Chronicle
holds middle throw everything they can at vitality going B
Dirk is coming back as well
I guess they fully re-exact?
That's how they're thinking here, Bond is now going A
Okay, Dirk is going to fake E, but it's all in the dark
It's certainly served vitality well so far as an hour, and thus find the opening page.
And then we put this lot to this hourglass to find the clear of V-Site, which has been fully vacated by vitality.
But just doesn't know where to look.
Yeah, it seems a vitality are complete.
You got caught off guard, better take.
And the cause we've deviate end.
This is up to Cloud.
And an easy pause plan.
Cloud knows his steps can't be her, though, so maybe there is a nifty reposition to be made here.
And they're in main, Gigi, round over, and the ults, Durkan still has his ults.
And these guys don't have Astral Wall anymore, and they don't have Rageal, yeah, round over.
Wow, they take back there to give the opportunity to fucking bodies to shoot at.
To GX both now they're nasty and still not around pretty late fake
Vitality shows what shows the improvements right? What way to do come out eight rounds flawless
It's absolutely sensational stuff right there at that point where anything will work. They can call anything at all
I mean they have drone they're gonna push this guy back anyway.
I would really like this chamber to start like getting aggressive aiming, getting aggressive
middle.
Alright I feel like this getting aggressive down B, you have to, you just have to.
You need to get this entry, get out, overstack.
I guess that's why I wanted to do that.
They wanted to leave an FD, so you never want to be shown a scene.
So the drone comes behind there.
Just a quick recall of the smoke has flickless on a string
I can't say the same
All right reposition or miss backline with a rifle in hand problems now for vitality
Look at this, and then Ara just gets no impact from this.
And now they're going to don't peek this as well.
Jump peeking, of course.
I mean, they're just too good right now.
Those are the little things that, like, right there,
those are the small things where you have to, like, recognize
and make a mid-round call instantly
where all all the players understand what it means
Like one word should be able to mean like get aggressive spawn or like flip the site is like something people say
Because you assume that because this guy has the space and it's an eco around you're most likely getting flanked by multiple players
So then you push this and then also the jump peeking which is also another protocol
And you'd be surprised how many times seems don't do it considering it's so common to do
something. Absolutely. Like Taliyah just steamrolling right now. Yeah, I mean we've seen Ana take
main space as well, right supported by some utility, but for the most part like I've not
seen like a full board. What's insane is this is an extra magic. Vitality of constantly
being taken like get Ana set up deep somewhere. This may just be the opportunity to do it.
to be the case whether it's 10 rounds late or not if it can really end up in the next
round it might be something Aragetsu chance, it's just a warning post it's just a good
utile, good flash, look how easily he's getting fucking bullied bro, Stoke cannot make that
operator walk, it's necessary uncharacteristic of him, yes bro fucking bot man up man, I
I like that missile though. W.
I like this. I really like this. If he dies doing this.
It's fine.
It's fine. He's baiting on a lot of you too.
can't be tp'd on...
oh my god he can't catch a break dude
they're so carousel, okay finally a mistake
of course
bruh
They want to play a rest and thoughtfully treated
Every tackle will get the last
Brav
Double digits for vitality
End the first half
And against a team which we said were so clean at setting their priorities
Whether they were playing for a take
Whether they wanted to hold the site
It's just so few and far between
Not up to standard
Another ult
Gone with no return
and minimal rounds left to make an impact on this defensive half so
ultimate is well I mean that hunter's fury can be used in any which way in
deck close to it's own and the old it does not look in this role for the
defense and that's the big thing I thought I was really asking for 10
perfect game space in the ultimates so like maybe I asked for too few map
control and that's another thing to talk about that this way they pick yeah you
did say that you could have asked for 12 fanatic player or Durka a former one
just talking about you know you've got to dive in sometimes too much momentum
nice how he knows everything they're doing is correct they have no second
guessing chronicle men does land the transfer very quickly resetting his
7HP though.
This is big. Chamber and Astro are B and Breach.
This is huge.
But Vitality looks to be moving A.
No.
Aww.
This is nice.
This is very nice from GX.
The info they finally get.
There but it is impossible to lose right on a where all eyes are on the dualist
Yeah, that's my up starting to get a little bit claustrophobic
And it's up to our on seven points of how do you usually come back from this?
I don't know. That's cloud nine bullets already been shot
But there's a little bit to lay through this stunt
Does need to go down and go down fast
I would say can the shots and so is yampey
Wait
Just a bow wait close wait
I mean, you know to clutch a lot is three
What's through the cognitive aid? Oh my god?
I have to see this opposite number the opposite pool
Again, how's it wait? They actually lost versus three and yet they cannot convert the differences this time
It feels like they start to do some of the right things. It's a positive start from our oh wow
That's the second guy, yeah. Wow. Oh my, deleted. Actually deleted. The shots on fake hit this round.
11-0 on the opponents in that pick. If that's not demoralizing, I don't know what it is.
really send away through meds and have shown the strengths and how what dangers they can pose
towards the GX defense. Do you think Syl will replace Unfaith? Um, depends on how their results
look this tournament. And me and all players, it's essentially a trial whether somehow I feel
like this is the best, honestly, probably he will get replaced because Sylar was supposed to be the
main fit. Unfaith is like technically a ringer that's just like helping team out. So yeah,
In that situation, but if like on fake end of disease Godlike player, then I don't know
Oh my god, he's aware. He's actually aware. He's actually aware
Remaining of giant exit after trying to die. Sorry on three and a double up from the please give me this third
Oh, here. Give me the 12 of his team. You can see vitality tapping the space hoping something comes ill we and then that's something
It's gonna be out of no drop at all at least gets to trade out keeping the numbers
Chronicles in there. He's too good
Too good
Vitality with a quick snap of the baby. Oh, it's too good. It's too good 12 zero
half from vitality nearly perfect from profit even just one death on the kill sheet was not too much
to ask for it really wasn't now for gx to turn things around we'll see how much they can do after
this yikes man that is just that is that is just that's just a yikes sorry 18 and five
Chronicle. Okay, bro. You do that. Yeah, I mean, fuck. What can you do? This is just
I guess this is a bad defense comp. I don't know. Thing is, I know GX are good. I'll tell
you, this is just this kind of map. It doesn't matter what the level of the opponent's are.
It's just this kind of map on attack slash defense like on attack.
It's just dominant on defense.
People are just playing like scared rabbits because there's just nowhere to go nowhere
to play.
Just job saving the crime.
Like I know GX is good too.
And I know this isn't like it's obviously bad because it's 12 zero right looks horrible.
This map is so attack sided, especially if you can clean up the bonus, it is disgusting.
You can go Ato up in a blink of an eye.
The opponent has to be super risky while being proactive because every B push, A push, mid
push it's all extremely attack sided if they're holding for it you die if you're defense so all
those are attack favored bites so your pro activity only hurts so but if you play passive
the opponent's post plants are strong too so there is no good answer on this on defense
Not the best start to the series. There's a different gx to what the one that we see note. I just let you know at that point
Wow, they're actually going to 13 of them and got a double kill. Yeah, Ara has no safety to go
One of the last time I saw a 13 note chat, so it's looking like this is a very real possibility now
GX wanting to fight fire with fire, but they might just be consumed by the flames which kill them
Wow
The Giants are crushed under the front of our towering in the opening map, a humiliating
way to go on their own pick no less, but we will have to see if things could possibly
get any better and they can reset heading into the rest of this series, Kyro.
Absolutely fucking destroyed though.
It just sucks that it's their map pick dude.
That's the only thing I'd be tilted about.
Like we just lost 13 on our map pick, like what?
Kind of bad.
next map is Breeze. Damn. Every day that I don't see Haven, I miss it. Every day that
I don't see Ascent, I miss it.
What are you doing to make sure you get the exact same performance?
Every day I don't see Lotus, I miss it.
Alright, well thank you so much. I'm going to let you go. That's it for myself over here.
We're going to go to a break, and we'll be back with the second map of the series.
What was that?
No way guys, actually.
A set is like the people's map, no?
A set is like actually the people's map alongside Haven and Bind.
buy people I've seen people hate on vines a lot cuz there's no mid on vines which is annoying
you
I think it's a good idea to go back to the beginning of the game and see what we can do with it.
When I say mid control, I shouldn't have said mid control. I do like maps that have a middle, for sure.
and I prioritize those as like a personal favorite. However, I think Fracture the way it's built,
it allows for a lot less randomness and you have to be extremely, extremely disciplined in your
default. Or it's very easy to die. Which I like. I think it forces you to have to be good at
holding specific points. Your execs have to be really good. Your post plans have to be really
good everything on fracture is very very slow paced early but very fast paced mid to late round
because you have to be very quick on rotates since bomb sites are so far away from each other so
i like that a lot i think that's fun to me at least like in terms of being able to outplay the
opponent and then vice versa as well like them being able to outplay me we were trying to figure
out like you have to have a really really you have to have like four defaults on that map
Actually, you literally have to have like four different defaults to make it work.
They just know exactly where Giant X are playing, they know exactly what they're doing, and they know how to manipulate them up.
That was a combination of both.
Yeah, I definitely think it was a combination of both, but you could tell that Vitality went super hard on the prep here.
Yeah, and that's also what we want to see, but they'll also kind of over-expect.
I think it's different Vitality, so I'm really great from them.
From Jax's side of things, unfortunately, this is not the first, you know, to the English.
Oh, the road.
Not the greatest position to be in, but let's say in the positives because we're trying to be very falsely today looking at Profec specifically because he was 18-1
His first death was on like Brown's bow.
I'm not feeling as if he's boring to watch. I can understand that.
I can understand that.
Oh my god, he's gonna go the whole lap and just not have a death.
Imagine.
The way he was playing was just so, so well and I think-
Not as boring as that of this-
doesn't always get the powers that he deserves.
You can see here, he set that BCC EME, KD, Abrex.
another 13 no no way bro no way there's another 13 zero yeah I mean 26 zero
would be lucky everybody out there because this was I don't even know what
would happen even greater was a sideline to be where I think I'm just
better okay you go King exactly what he did but also make me laugh when you were
like how are you gonna do this in the next month and he was bait like all just
perfect but concise to the point sticking to fundamentals exactly what we wanted to see
yeah just shit on but another player that was really doing great was chronicle i think
i mean we can't go without actually praising this player as well yeah i felt like chron last
week had a decent performance yeah chronicles disgusting because it's just like you just expect
that from like this weekend we can't he's gonna be this kind of player for them can you rank
Split as sent in Bind. I think Split's the best of the three.
Find as sent in Bind.
Bind? I don't know. I feel like it's two one-dimensional.
If I'm being honest. Again, there's two little options on how you can play besides the TPs.
Like, you could just TP around back and forth.
If you use the TPs perfectly, you probably have a really good map.
where as a set doesn't really have a gimmick like that so I would probably put
a set last in that category actually split behind the set but I personally love
a set like I miss playing it because I had epic matches on that map
We haven't seen you play Breeze yet, this kickoff. What can we expect from you guys on it?
I think you can wait five minutes and you will see.
We will see.
That's it.
I mean, five minutes.
Is this time still considered Halledeecon 7? Yeah.
That's right, that's right.
For sure.
You just saying that about both coach confessions.
You know what?
Well, I feel like I'm obligated to give.
You know a little bit of insider information like something to like
great joke
Did give a very good answer about something wrong? Yes
But the sun or all today not looking
What do you
The general game plan
I'm going over the first five rounds as well. A lot of coaches like to do
This is what we're going to do for the first five rounds based off the anti-shouting. I've done after that
It's up to the caller or timeouts. Be right back
So I wonder if they do lean back into that kind of double initiator identity that we've seen from giant x
I think that that could potentially work out from them here and west side. I would like to see on the viper rather than the chamber
I think okay. Well, that's exactly what you're getting Billy. Yeah
I think to see grubby on the omen as well as interesting
I know that many and I've kind of been discussing the viper omen the viper astro type situation
I think for this kind of composition it works
Well, they'll be able to fight for that a main space very heavily with this omen and jet and hopefully be able to set our up on the
I think both comps here looking very comfortable, and I don't see a breach this time
So you see it yet?
I'll be honest. I don't like it that much
But I think a breach as a second Jordus is absolutely fine and for someone like Dirk who's just very comfortable on it
I think it makes a lot of sense. Giant necks they're going back to that our afflicted, you know
KO plus entry Jordus approach and I think that sets them up really nicely
But I do think by totally have looked pretty decent on those map when we've seen them
and I think that might have been a reason why Giant Axe haven't played this map, you know?
But because we haven't seen it at all, it means that they have been able to study my telegram.
Yeah, I think at this point as well, to highlight here, the fact that there is no tape from GX
is going to really push Yampi and his IGL into the forefront in terms of whether or not he'll be able to call in these rounds when the prep isn't already there.
Definitely, because we've praised so heavily, Tim Vaital is preparation on that first map.
It really is up to Yampi to step up his IGL to be able to get the reads against Giant Axe.
Giant X. I think when you're going up against two initiators though, it is easier to kind
of get that information pretty quickly. So yeah, I think for Vitaly, as much as they
have two wins on this map so far, it was against Alph and it was against Team Liquid, so I
don't want to read too much into those wins. I still think that Giant X have the opportunity
to be able to bounce back into this map and potentially have put a job on Vitaly.
Yeah, and I think there's going to be a lot of out of this map, I think. Just the jet
on this map, he's gonna be by himself on that fuel list.
Get the operator out, hopefully,
which we know he's very good at on defense sites.
Yeah, well, we don't have to ponder any longer
because once again, we are ready to head
into our second map of today, Breeze with Hazan Cairo,
who seemed to be giving us the quickest gains in kickoff.
It would certainly seem that way.
You could throw all you knew about this GX team
in the previous map out of the window.
Heading into Breeze, there is nothing on record
for the time being.
So I think that's what it's all about. It's consistent theme of going back to basics
Taking it one step at a time as they hop all out of that first one
That's Luna
Hoping will be a change
No one especially on breeze playing jet whaley. I do the same thing with the stunts from whaley jet ashes in
Because people are far there on breeze
Whereas on corrode people are closer because the bomb site is smaller could be troubled considering that GX have never played this map and
and kick off yet you read they are tier one they're 25 months lower bracket
appreciate it above their heads the smallest of changing direction in kickoff can cause a big
change in destination with a stacked field this game against vitality all right so far it's 13
no the pistol round is a great way to start jumpy jumpy jumpy sorry side on a just chronicle left
hanging in mid. I mean Vitality started the last map on the attack and they
start less one once again. They look to try and brute force the way through the
site but they are taking the team. They let themselves think about the approach and...
Wait! A to B!
No, they're cooking too much.
They're wrapping their way back through I suppose. I'm being able to get the better of
control in the end. Bring it back to even footing four on four and GX
want to fight this
Wow they walk back to after vitality
Interesting routing
Oh god this train's huge but ours playing well
Dirk, Dirk, Dirk, so Dirk gets the spake down, which say no to take up the clutch, he's in the chip, Dirk doesn't take his opportunity, but one versus one and it could be very much better to consider the way it's done, doesn't have a lot of bullets left.
Oh my ma, I'm done man.
On top!
And Jadion X will get the faster into the series.
Yeah, that's one way to put it.
Steely nerves from west side, holds the line and breaks the ice for GX.
Huge confidence boost.
No, I don't think any good.
I mean, even in this round you can see some of the issues in trying to play together,
this double door peek, not working out.
I'm getting the better of the individuals in the end, sometimes that's all you need.
All bullets by the result was left. They are not there to know even that
No, I'm just rooting for my mom
As it stands yeah, not anymore jumpy did come out with the highest headshot percentage after the last map
Yeah, well, I think a lot changed after
Yeah, he popped the statistics should hopefully rewrite themselves, but we'll say these equals are very good long breeze
But the spam not quite working out and very doable on breeze very
Next to have control of the other one
Vitality, I think they're trying to get both orbs while they are been maxing hella
Both orbs is greedy dude. But forwards that GX currently have
Very passive perimeter currently being held, but
Clouds drone gives Aaron opportunity for a look in right on your hair mod because he is
Why else would I call him that?
Suspect, that I'm worried about, flakless, ready to spree down and the spam this time will
be much better than that of the sheriff, foolhole.
Holy fucking Insta panic.
This guy just shit himself.
Three bodies here.
We'd expect him to actually have everything that he should need to talk about.
He's got one foot and fucking lost his mind.
here though they're yet to call any big rotation to have the bodies in place to
deal with this though and cloud is already found out cloud g
yampi goes down beautiful they're gonna get a nice and cool mean anti-go
yeah to the slaughter there is little to be said of this one drop down for both
teams honestly these guys about both orbs a little bit if you get 13 out do
Do you get scared? Yes, if they get 13 of them back, you're saying? Or just 13 nodes?
If you get 13 nodes, you just think like, yeah, we're horrible. Like, we, we, it's fine.
Just move on to the next round, there's nothing to talk about.
The harder you get, the less there is to talk about, because you just go, okay, like, obviously
we didn't play our game. It's easier to get destroyed than lose 13-11.
potentially or sure it's only yampi on the mental at least but he's just one
off that out now yampi yampi yampi
oh for vitality holy fuck that was close
not quite connecting although very very close and yampi does he escape he does
he does he escapes in the forever box and it's gonna double down brilliant
from our landing that second kill after finding yampi
It's the only target in striking distance for the outlaw.
Well, um...
That's not good.
But just a minute left to play with.
If Cron can find Flickless here on the hard clear, then...
Maybe it would be way back in if it's a brilliant adjustment from Cron in the end.
Yeah, I know.
I'm still a guy in B, though.
Cron, you're cronix, you're cronix, you're cronix.
You're cronistically a grubby on pie.
Come on, Timothy.
The cat-crun went out the drill to the chest and taped.
So no vitality.
I bet homeless in terms of whether they get their spake to go,
because I mean GX are well-stocked either side of the map really running dry on info as to
Where say where they can lay their hat what they can do
Profec walking into trouble and west side
yourself an upgrade as well. Not really liking this
Really not a fan of what's happening in the valley
Back into mid he goes
Oh, nice shot.
I bet that's going to get better off him.
All right, good save.
It's just him versus the clock right now.
As Vaitati will look to reset.
Please look at the strongest back there.
It's like, at Santiago, the best team at the moment.
Which one do I still think is America's best team?
I'm not going to say it's BBL.
I'm going to fuck.
Because you're seeing some of the mistakes being made here.
In terms of like, yamping, maybe not having a TP set up,
I'm feeling confident to take these duels.
Yeah, they definitely thought they could just at least get those kills for free.
I don't mind it because there's both duels trying to fight there.
I don't mind that confidence from Vitality.
It's not really over or underestimating. They were doing an AD fault.
campaign so far as well having won those first couple matches and now coming into those off the
back of a defeat. Like it gets things started though exactly as you'd hope as the one rifle bearer.
Why are you so confident that VBL will keep their form but it makes well?
Bias? I like the way VBL play more.
And that's what I'm gonna tell you. Honestly I'm not confident that either will keep their form.
Considering there is a lot of bodies I did to fight through that knife
Question is the vitality maybe want to invest this year or do they have bigger plans for it at this point in time?
I mean, yeah, still a pack of four pistols
Not a moment the deck would be the one to get the bleak storm online, you know get something else a little bit more
Yeah, I mean like that's the question right like oh, this is a great pick up for him
Might the best thank you for this year one more six months appreciate you
The left side, a little hot under the collar now as Vitality have made the punches in the
top of left.
They're double peeking together.
I like that.
It stands the orb doing the heavy lifting on the main side of the push and Grubby has
already wrapped back around.
This is the behind of Munchy.
Catches our interest for just a moment, but still all eyes on Grubby as the closer here.
Vitality don't have time, they don't have space.
One enemy remaining.
And if Fliklas doesn't finish it off first, the cloud will instead.
He's just been flanking for the last 30 seconds.
Poor Grubinio.
Doesn't get a single kill for that flank.
Are we serious?
Sure, thank you for the fun.
And...
She's an actress.
Thank you for the fun.
Did I pause earlier?
the big component for this one would be yampi's dimensional drift
from the other side of the server flaklus has a null command to respond and energy go out really
you'd be able to freeze being such a big map and if they're out too then i don't go fuck whoever
else you can find on that here and what the timing looks like it's a nice to set up our for this
early peek like that.
Fosthame bought and finally an entry.
They got their entry and they killed Aura.
Okay, your ult should be good as well.
Okay.
Wait, Grubidia didn't even turn with that noise.
Alright, Khaleen, I guess.
GX best to take what they have to the reserves. Yeah, as Vitality look like they will be getting on the board here
If you find any rotates and with that being not undiscovered
That's fair. It is pretty far. Vitality can use that again and for the rounds if they wanted
But overall operate or saved
Vitality happy to be back to winning the weasel, but Kent and I west side
That seed and he's actually come away with two and I can't afford to lose that many guns
Next one which is most concerned
Actually, you guys guys all good. He's popping the next round anyway
And when you look at the credits on those bottom three players on the why is artists considered the best Valor player of all time?
He has the best resume
Just taking things one step at a time
same as should be on the minds of the GX players as they have given
themselves a foothold to really dig into now in this game and ours are not quite
seeing itself as a component of that just yet but a real facilitator for the
macro yeah I mean that's no like I guess I don't want to be too harsh on
other just yet cuz you make like build into this one job but I guess another
The first thing we've seen on
Why am I getting so tired?
This is the first thing that Vitality actually won her own
And I think the story on both sides of this
I think it's so fucking boring chat
Someone's telling me right now
This game is form versus
Is it because it was 13-0 and now I just know who's going to win?
Yeah, Ara has been slightly more informed
I guess just for the last game's sake
Yeah, what up Jimmy?
I'm perturbed by the situation here
Blades are out
What?
What do you want?
Vitality searching towards B but
Judgment clouded by those fumes
seems if they may be forced to try and head towards the east side where the
spake was not even watching but Jimmy's contracted the Envy still hasn't watched
a single Envy game. Explained that to me.
You're not available to be used to clear it out.
You can see it's been the same default from Vitality, GX been pretty happy to give them orb control.
Albeit concessions in terms of a fight back thereafter.
I'm surprised they've kept three people where the Viperalta is, I guess so, but as I'm a quick
I wrote it.
He's gonna be too late.
Nice shot.
That's the second time that we've seen a player
from a high position get to kill the entry.
And it seems as if the operator,
I was gonna get the mic.
Wow, Chronicle, wow.
And he's got his own VypLs pet now
with a spike and save it.
Chrono is the gold standard.
Another beating heartbeat of this Vitality post plan.
Jax looking to give it a go,
but they need to kill quickly.
Yeah, and it's Deca,
main that'll look to try and identify. He protects the pit from the out save but it's not a
putting on a try and challenge and certainly not now. And it's praying Dirk, he wants to
hunt down the last remaining. This is where save looks to escape. It's been successful so far.
The west side is off in exactly that direction. Dirk are already circling in blood in the water.
The realness because it's both sides of the chronicles the greatest every time they try and execute end to it vitality
They're getting caught and undone by someone and a vertical position, which is a vertical position
You get to the very thing you should start to consider it. Maybe. Oh, maybe who knows?
I can't do it
Or is it or?
Hmm.
His op is still online for GX though.
I'm just trying to speak like him, it's actually hard.
That accent is like, literally impossible.
Round vertical.
Not quite a swing yet, in terms of the finance.
But Vitality are keeping them honest here.
And Unfaith still holding on to the Hunter's Fury.
Could just be looking...
The game is so boring, I mean, actually, the game is not that boring right now. This map's good.
How are they able to skill this far deep into the bomb site with nothing being thrown at them?
What the fuck? Dirk has done his own side-quests!
Bro went on his own mission!
Dirk!
Where did it go?
Dirk!
pops in
knock them on thrown to the fire but it's yamping
it just scorches them alive sends them packing
and with that vitality drives that third round home
the way they're condyed literally looks like he's leaving
start looks to be faltering and they have to be
commited pass through rome's
fae plus pet the rome previous to the last point
Oh, they're still...
YUMBAY!
Beautiful.
Who's the best player based on resume?
Ethan.
Two chance!
the other hand just trying to keep that steady curve of improvement when you look at their placements
you know why resume because the resume includes all your prior experiences even also dominated
in counter strike top 20 player counter strikes sorry even when coaching staff what's been brought
in from bbl and it matches like these where if you can show a little bit of tenacity i don't know
Absolutely, you're on the right track. Yeah, it feels like that last year's vitality was like the galacticals
You could see the potential
Scream them
The best way and now when we look at you know anything about what's going to be counter strike or no
I'm not
Renowned
But like a completely different system and I guess it really comes from all the way up the top to the to the last player
in the back. We're talking about my one pups. Alchemy. We're talking about my one pups.
We're balanced and with some spice in there for sure. I know for a fact everyone in chat
at some point has copied the screen settings. Yes or no? Trophy. Either in CS or in battle.
Yes or no? Tell me now. One comes your way. In CS. In CS? The land city of Valorant, perhaps.
Come on really this round. We're not shocked see we're not shocked
Has moved on to a blight stop
It's flickers the ball
Here. Oh my god. You guys are only Valgas, right? Okay, so who's the main person you sense you copy and like settings
You guys name guy from double toes, but GX now
Oh
Always are typing exclamation marks settings in his shot
Taisa's chat is just exclamation marks everywhere
I mean those holes those gaps that vitality can now start to really try and punch through so they group up
And they go to a main you're a meanie was I mean
Why would you copy settings?
10 ES settings, that's nice.
That was a good one.
Drops or Twists is good.
They pin it to every student, people still ask, yeah.
Well, it all comes crumbling Wow, that's really going to go for a lot and then now it's eight down to be eight for
losing eight in a row after winning four in a row
And even score now between the teams copy anyone sayings before and counter strike. Yeah, buddy
buddy
and
Every single team exists of Tendo vitality of one the preceding road not sense though
I copy muddy sense
But right now we have not seen the the file. That's why you're sure I have done more in 15 years than you will do in four lifetimes
I guarantee you you are useless your parents don't even ever
Yet to really let it rip with breakneck speed
But four players early in a main
He's wandering elsewhere on the map. I just be going around the world as it's darker diving in
I'm just kidding, he's probably killing it.
I know you checked his settings and shit and said, wait, what?
Get right with the first player?
That's a good one to get right in force for like the big, the big two, and Nio, sorry, the big three.
Get right in force, Nio, like the main people, everyone copied.
Is your favorite CS player?
For a while, it was Maudiou.
Uh, and then it exists, and then that's it, and then I started competing against them, so nobody.
Oh, unlucky.
Why is Monty soft then?
Yeah, not only that, you can have a favorite while competing too.
There are so many pills go down for vitality.
You can.
Basically, Max credits as well.
So it doesn't really harm the economy that much either.
And vitality now, five in a row.
Even when we go into the post plan, if you go back,
and I don't know if we'll be able to see in the replay, but...
Who will have a better year of vitality than that?
Right, Cron still had snakebite.
Bro, it's all dependent on the progress of the game.
The progress and improvement they make.
So with Sionara, like, I have no idea.
Like, if that's how it is, that's how it is, as everyone says, then probably Vitality.
But there's so many other things. There's so many other factors.
I feel like Fnatic is consistently reliable.
However, Hot Take, I really think they're not going to play well this year.
Fiskily possible.
And I like all those guys, and I want them to do well,
But I think they're gonna have a struggle a struggle
I guess a year. Well, they swear they struggle a lot. I can't see off this series
You're not rub your eyes the top left is not deceiving you right now if you've just joined
That's time to say did they give Jane X a head start, but the first round
They win something this year, I know
Jane X me I really don't think so
I think when you even just look at the philosophy of pals teams in the past focus BPL
I think for that it was stronger in the first half of the year, but then come back around
and say that's usually how it goes for them anyway
Making the most of that macro
So yeah, they could just keep that pattern growing
Expensive maps is being one of the things that I think they're going to have the first
year they've ever had
Criteria in terms of course, people will coach that micro
If I'm wrong, I'll stay along at the end of the year
Season
headplales stop me and the entry to be is perfect
Say how it is. Do I like you? I like you.
And so a three on three set up, but still cron lurking
Yeah, and he's still gonna sneak bait as well. You think G2 will fall off?
Sharks with a steeply from looks to be on site all alone, but does have the protection of Dekker's op. Yes
Under the microscope. I think they will also have a warrior. Yes
I don't necessarily know if that's like an Andre thing, but I do think they might fall off.
F?
Okay, what about?
And now coming into this year finds himself on
Super team right that's where it's been named as and he's a massive part of that
Second phone
People really think underestimated his value and what he brought to BBL and right now for fighting
They have lost six in a row after being four zero up
And just so consistent
To be fair they're on the tax side
Yeah, and it's hard defense is hard
I'm reborn after that
Blitzing against BBL
off, maybe just being too predictable. Yeah, I do think that they're gonna get
figured out this year. That's the main reason it has nothing to do with the
player's talent on the team. I feel like fanatics and the G2s will get figured
out this year. If I'm wrong, I'll just say I'm wrong. I'm just a random like yes
that I have. It's like my only hot take for the year.
Does NRGBG2? I think so, yeah.
The trades? Three bomb plant? Rotate Taler? Sort of here. Not really? Nope, nevermind.
No one's close enough to have any impact. I think they'll play a main when they're around. GG.
I watched I want Washington a practice year. How's it looking?
In the middle of chaos and at the top. It's also chaos. It's chaos. It's actually chaos
I actually don't know who's gonna qualify ever
Gx players trying to make their way through it is still a free on free here, Kyro
team is taking a we though and the guns don't really
But somehow they make it work
So we're looking at wrong
Uh, how's this close?
Clutch up here is the last two
But have rescued Rayfors
And let's play at Talia to get this diffused
How did they, how's this ground even uh, competitive?
Always comes down to the Y ever
Actually GX, uh, make
Live work of it
Why won't we just play Amy?
How's them to get on the board for the first time in
Uh, the last six
So, just a lot on
Okay, now what?
For uh, Vitality
It's a weird one, right? It catches you by surprise, didn't feel like the tempo of the
rounds that we'd seen. It didn't look like that was going to happen, but it's given GX
a massive opportunity. Let's not undercut that fact. The op is back out for Aura. It's
going to be towards a almost solo here as West Side is…
It's so funny that most of the chatters complain about Nadec or G2 and it's just kickoff.
That is the reasonable take as they will just get better as the year goes on
I think that they will stay similar or the same and what when any any trophies this year
That's my hot take that's just like a hot take based off like they didn't stick to me, you know
Not like any shade towards anyone
the smoke. It's an easy pick up. The disconnect there. The ball is coming out of the like
position as they go from backside. Oh what a big kill. We need one more. One more to
secure it. He tries to hold on. It doesn't anticipate on fake. So Spike recollected and
I have essentially a 2v2. What a miss. What a miss. That's why it's still flanking here.
Oh, never mind.
WHAT?!
Oh, they did it again to him!
He did the same thing to him!
A, on a...
On a...
Same guy!
He literally did that same thing to me.
I was planning and then just insta-kill left side.
And then plan it.
One to pick up the same like similar situation to it
It's a 16 help vitality will finally get there an advantage to the next half an unreal round from unfaithful
Setting up the execution and then finishing it off cleanly vitality keep an advantage on the half
Is it enough to bring it on Chris quality Toronto really?
I heard James Harden went to Cleveland, is that true?
Wingman World, well, Wingman World, well, what?
That is so, that's so random.
Have a break.
Have a kick out.
Are they doing well in the East?
Well, what break?
Let's go.
AD to wait.
Wait, what?
Why?
What's happening?
There aren't the wizards like deadlocks in the league?
What the fuck is going on in life?
They have Trayong and AD, but both injured, I see.
Ah, I got you, I got you, Mudrok. Mudrok. I got you, I got you, I got you.
I want Vitality to lose purely for Yinsu's reaction.
I mean, she's just gonna be sitting there just...
Just not include this as usual. Win or lose.
But Vitality's winning this regardless.
Who do we feel will qualify for EMEA?
I am guaranteeing BBL will.
The other two I actually just don't know.
Similar to APAC, I know PaperX will.
The other two I don't know.
It's too competitive, like in the middle,
where like the middle teams and the top teams
are too close for me to know.
What, why are you guys laughing at PaperX?
One loss, that's why.
I mean good cop bad little sickos
I don't know we'll have to see I definitely think that now moving on to the attack this could look really good for GX
But when you consider the fact that yeah, he or X is all has lost one game already
have the your just the amount of positions that can be
Oh what a paranoia! Wait I haven't seen that yet!
That was low key!
They run down elbow and be made with a paranoia straight!
Straight away, pace change, giant X left scratching their heads
This is getting anti-stranded?
Yeah I mean, I don't think...
What else is there to see?
Yeah, that looks vitality clamped down immediately, Yampi here.
Jump in!
You could have decided, you know what actually I'm going to back up?
No, Flash himself through the smoke, knows that the rest of his team are making their way through Alpo.
Nice boys! Let's go! Come on boys!
Come on boys!
And Junkman is going back to the same position, looking to train.
Maybe recreate the round that they didn't get to do last time
So much emphasis on the boys
Okay
Oh
Nice screen, 9-5
Alright, end this shit, 4 more
Blink and you will miss it, GX sent marching orders from the B site, two rounds consecutive
The question is, will they now start to die, bulge?
We get anything else. This is already much better from darker as well
One and showing how much he's matured. I mean you talk guys relationship with love please
So I'll cast a couple weeks ago
Chronicles having another banger game such high quality is him
and a lot expected of him.
And spread as usual.
Very, very spread from GX.
Eventually, he still has gunna drone A
while these guys progress up.
Up against a pretty good opponent and giant X.
And it's looking like that last match
was just a drop in the point.
And that's why we then come back to the gatekeeper conversation
that we were talking about earlier on the first line as well,
where RGX now may be starting to drop off a little bit.
How much longer could they live towards a lower bracket
potentially?
Questions which we'll answer soon.
This is the buy round.
Well, the first minute or so, doesn't involve too much.
Standard orb towards mid to try and threaten that pressure.
They never pushed back, eh?
I thought they'd push back eight with a KO knife
or a dart, a drone.
Heavy towards the east side of the map.
I mean, that doesn't really matter.
There's this Viper here so, but then I guess so but he's like, oh.
Aw, that's a big info. Now GX has so much space.
Yeah, you did. He tried.
Oh my god.
find the dome on top and with it now being honestly good damage being done though
the reality start to claw things back it's profit looking for more than just
the other side good fight by GX they fall all the right spots together smoke
fades the angles open up and it just feels rough to try and dissect
Well played. Not bad. Nothing they can do. GX fought well together. Triple scale, triple swing. Everything's right.
But the same time you'll take it in towards the next there may be make the attack economy a little bit thin
Vitality completely caught off guard. You can see again that the setup in terms of allowing for those rotations to come
We didn't cause a downfall of team heretics. I don't know if I necessarily liked that fight towards back
Downfall. He just started the year.
Well, it doesn't necessarily need to. Who fell down. What we can see in before the barriers go up here
GX have been very direct very straightforward in terms of how they're playing
Thanks for streaming on YouTube. You're welcome, Yogi
Okay, what a shot okay, I'm fix what a shot and then he puts up the op
Fucking just go for another one
Oh, yeah, look at him look at him this guy smells blood
Oh, you are you're cooked. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm genuinely so sorry.
Oh god, Durka. Really? You're this horny. Okay, they know where both are.
Oh, what a round. What's a round buddy? It's like A bow.
And it's just been great to see this performance from him here as well because I have to say
I was looking back at the stats and actually his second shot was really nice. Actually
that and then the second shot was nice. Everything else is pretty basic.
Where he was in stage two, where he was in game leading as well. So yeah, just having
that freedom definitely helping him out that's real either on prior is still
okay the air saving for half by while they're allowing vitality to get to 11
another B-Pog you're a silver here
towards the mid-tunnel but you would hope they wouldn't try peeking the op.
Oh!
Oh no!
I don't get it, but I'm much better.
Much better.
Definitely looks like...
And they all have an op!
For free.
Giant X round is unfaithful towards the CT portion, but Giant X really infested in this
set and that smoke earmarking a very deep space so the operator picked up for a grubby
and I speak going down.
Yeah, huge tool in post-plan here.
All your mods are horniest stuff?
I know.
through the wall as their company needs to be careful of
our uh you're dead you're just dead they're gonna die
and I shot the shinix look to respond I don't like these
these setups I can't lie how can we make me better? Oh god play
B retake no play like double elbow walk behind them
get it only deviation was uh first line R is two young people
Or not all of the difference at the end of the day you can play after a pick up for GX to
Break this string of plans to open in big. That's a massive room. I mean you can play your controller here
and play
Seven to ten is not that insurmountable and
realistically GX could really change things up. No like
Profit can play on top of this when they're exacting he throws a smoke on himself
One way or some shit
Yeah, you can even have a retake wall you can have like a straight wall cutting everything
It doesn't have to be like you just literally have like
actually
What could be the roam cone and the next one they would be able to wait out the wall though
We're expecting Jnx to win this. Expecting being the keyword.
Sure. Yeah, we can run with that line.
And the headline here in this round for Vitalis, I suppose, would be...
Yeah, I think they need to start putting the wall behind them rounds.
Or maybe Yumpy's bandit, who knows?
So he could steal away an eco here or there,
but it doesn't look like GX are going to give him what he's looking for.
Okay
Honestly good scaling by GX though
So we are within to that expectation mix
Tracking those bandit players man with a really keen
Don't anyone besides that so we just kind of did it I
Geo in the middle of very much enjoying and then players just pick what they want to be
Whatever it's preference for players
be said about that yeah I think always those look good and today and what's the
adjustment okay put jet B on top of the thing was he on top
oh that's big that's big that's human too I was really big while the third one
is chasing shadows like a silver jet or a they've taken away alone vipers walking
Elbow dead
Okay, very very safe by mentality here giving up these not not taking this fight
Woman's gonna smoke a man soon. She'll be resumed then Silva darts and clears everything as well may have to be it would have been better
I don't know
Yeah, it's it's a strange one. It felt like you've been conditioned yourself me not just vitality. I have
The hair care routine again, of course.
All right, surely Durka just kills him here, and the round's over.
Why are they not dashing in? Who are you talking about?
That was last guy. There's a jet still alive.
Dashing in where? Into D?
This is terrible.
Vitality, look, this is a 2v2 on the beloved B site, though.
Durka elevated angle, you can plan a bow.
What do you think is the 4th team besides Premier's Triangle?
100th.
That's 20 seconds for a minute and Arra not feeling too healthy himself.
And Zen.
Thanks for streaming the local old folks, huh?
Yeah, no worries.
Hey, yeah, no worries.
Dumpy.
Hey, be called into question.
Why Tauti's still not with the best of finances?
back in his ability and Jalen think it's your one man this is the most
sad with the melee out and the reds can't take you into your one
so many ults to work with and for a team which is so fundamentally sad
I feel like one of the biggest busy pieces today is just love things in them
so like I don't know that sounds so powerful
off the back of that yeah 100% agree and yeah I think that as you said the
big rounds gonna come through the ultimate
I don't even know if I can name you three orgs let alone three players
really Billy EDG I think that's from Yampy though yeah gets into mid early but GX
haven't really been using exploring this territory as much as you would expect
other than just the viper orb in double doors
um, wolves
are wolves still, they're still wolves, right?
well he has a TP and of course the knife is down from click-lifts
so he'll be able to get out if he needs to
Decker denied any chance of supporting his team mate
so yampy TP's out, the E sage stronger
oh they're out? awesome
the split lock needs to be important
oh, JDG, I knew that one
Oh, what?
Ah, that's a mistake.
Don't be, don't be.
Flooding the feed.
Team mate back up on their feet.
That's perfect. He's smashed in. He just can't finish it off.
I looked like a team flash there for a minute,
but we do settle in a 3 vs 4
in favour of Janky.
And that Viper's picked down.
Oh, she's in by Flinkless.
Aye.
What a thousand-page dock on that one, but fun out.
He's the man advantage for GX the pit up a vitality looking for a way back in
Are you he's right through the smoke the classic would have been enough what a psycho
Round the sides not had the base the maps even though
Unfortunately, it looks like surely but I thought he would this game correct. Yeah, if he even gets a chance to
I think this is their best chance is beating my beer they lose that might be our I think they will lose their next
two games if they face energy
Yeah
does he accidentally like use his most skill and bring on his nace?
surely not
i have absolutely no idea
we'll have to round reveal maybe
let's go back and get a look
no let's get many to get the telestrator
they have a chance pansy
they just don't like
to me i feel like an invested 5 g2 and energy are both going to be there
here you flash
sorry, i'm sorry
things not really going the way that either team would have hoped there
but gx didn't push from the situation
and it has forced the vitality time out here to just try and correct things.
Yeah, I think that's fair enough to be honest.
That last round was just a calamity if we're being real.
I'm stretching.
The nice set up to mid, and you could see that GX...
It's a stretch, bitch.
...smokes and taking their time, but it was that timing through mid
in terms of re-cleaning it with the dimensional drift,
leaving Unfake all alone through to hold double doors,
and then Yampi trying to attempt to bring himself out of the dimensional drift will be a nice head clear as well
He's already won BBL wins all three international's this year. I don't care if anyone can win three international's
That is the Hall of Fame worthy. They gotta make their own. They gotta have an award named after them
From that first map into
three
vitality selection, but one which we are yet to see from our attackers this their debut
flickless fireman or saying does again just trying to be the catalyst for the rest of his team
i've looking to get a mid heavy elbow right off the back of this into elbow making themselves
Yes, it's impossible to get the trade as well as vitality retreat happy with what they've got and giant x
and then he falls back into the ultimate with the Viper.
Oh, he's leaving.
GX is reacting very early, and they don't have a pivot option.
And they do have a pivot option.
This Viper is the key.
He is the key in this round.
Oh, no, they've thrown.
Oh no, GX. GX hit everything!
Oh come on, bro.
How do we lose this round?
to the port of vitality very similar school lane towards not nearly similar
towards that foster so we really need to keep our eyes on a lot of drive keeps
that I don't like that it's actually broken the dirt and knives here as well
they have silver alts not good at all does he pop nice area yes he's going to
for sure Sturck has blades though again he's continuing to roam this
Can I be your mod? No. Get away.
And they are waiting in middle.
One updraft, and everything can change.
Ever mind?
Nothing? Vipers here by himself, awesome.
Great. Chronicle?
Here
Exactly what was required planted
My fist fight party into a retake where you know they have a drone a clone
But how much can you possibly do with that? Yeah? I mean especially when you've got our assembly hand the wall ready to go
Sure
end comes into two versus one from unfake
it's not that different, just keep going
he's known about but he doesn't know where that the fiber of west side is
oh this one
yeah parting gift of a smoke there but that drops
yeah and now the spike being half so unfake takes to the rifle
seeing if that's how we can try and win this
that molly is not good
this is worrying right now but ara comes in at the right time
and evens out the round count
Maybe that artist is casting? Is he casting?
What are you talking about? This guy?
Are you calling this guy artist?
Because trust me, artist sounds a lot worse.
Artists are literally going to be going to the big...
Like no
Easily come back in this one and they have done at 11 to 11. They try to walk on
I'm here to jump in!
RUGE INX!
Vitality finally!
Move on to my point!
As if they weren't even there
Vitality, keep that march forward!
That's a beautiful works.
Jump in.
I wanna hear him scream.
Really? Mute that? Now you're muting. Now you guys are muting. Okay, okay, okay.
I get you.
Dumpy, one away. One kill, you're all the way.
But they're doing the same strat.
Please, unfaithful throw.
FATAL!
Dumpy!
NOOOO!
Three versus two.
Yeah, GX, get their advantage back through the null command,
but my Tati might just have overplayed that one.
Mate, what, the health pools once again, not favoring GX.
That could be a big molly as it poses flickless interviewer.
And today, Kazan's, the wall goes.
You guys know there's a guy here.
You know there's a guy here.
The whole lanes are safe.
The way they say, looking to try to hold on now.
It's on a red, 30, there's no way.
To keep GX and the series,
BUSH IT!
What a team.
What a team. No, I wanted to mess with you.
Now we good.
Let's get the bums down there.
Let's get the real teams up.
and others from a global event last year the exact kind of return to form that you want to see
from a roster of why are you hyper yinye but not for americans was a one way affair and then some
are you good for well to reset into why always complaining why can't we just all sit here and
just be normal that's so hard
Gigi just lost a band on vitality. Every time people bet it's so funny to me. Like I feel
bad but it's pretty funny. Cause they say it so casually. Gigi just lost a band on vitality.
like
I mean, yeah, fuck imagine betting on this and your team gets a zero rounds like think about that
How do you how do I mute you and not the game easy go to the ea mea valorant stream
And you look like a weakness for vitality and that's the big poise to see a map pool looks so much stronger
have to see what they have to say about that and others as we are going to be
heading over to the post plan where yanky and chronicle will be joining us
oh yeah stats sorry in there let's see a chronicle perfect game perfect player
Durka perfect player my mod is back and if we look actually let me see her first
bloods by the way let me make sure you got it all
Eight and look at him go bro
Look at him go
I'm gonna things that I tell you have three eggnogs like they could be balding from Valorant and have reached enlightenment
They reached enlightenment. I mean they just win trophies, right? So that's simple
But here where are we? Oh?

Canyon lie.
That's an insane lineup.
Our insane matchup
The Institute has to watch party for vitality
