It's been a star, call me crazy on the ocean
Oh, set the fire for my funeral
Take your eyes, I got it
See by your door, you got the way
See behind you, don't know what I've gone through
See what it was, stay inside my skin
Oh, you ain't said what you said, girl
It's been a few days since I could feel
Call me crazy on the ocean
Oh, set the fire for my funeral
Yeah, it's like a back and forth scene, but a chance for a dead stage.
Look at the chains, I'm trying to go and check, but I don't know if I'm a nerd.
Could a gentle cuddle be trying to highly tell his feelings?
I wanna find all the pieces of my position better.
All of these broken promise is better, so forever.
Selling lies, I've been everything I've been trying to do.
It's out of these other minds, guys, it's out of love.
It's a big time, I need a thought.
I've never felt that I was blocking your way
It's a lot of crazy information
I'll test them for my funeral
Take it easy, I'll show it to everybody
You've got this
Take it easy, I don't know what I'm going through
It's a feeling nice to take inside of my shoes
Hope you guys come back to that world
Living on this night
You're a party crazy, I'm so losey, I'm just a formative roll
Watching the time fade away into the day
Shit fuckers, I'm a way back
I sell myself, it's a trap
Don't glow up, don't give in
Trust me, then you won't ever win
All the lies, all the loves, all the pain
They don't know
I say to them, I got everybody
Don't know what I've got to get us
We need to get out, we don't know what I'm going through
They wouldn't last, they'd get sad, I'm not feeling
I'll get all the sets back in some room
I'm living my good life with you
I'm crazy, I'm crazy how you do
I'll chase up for my funeral
I'll be crazy, I'm too rich and I'll just go for a new role
I'm cold, feels pointless, my glass is half full, always said don't suffer no fools,
Servants, they dream
A bite you call me lovely
Girl, speak to me
I'm gonna get the sugar from you
When they say I'm a shigun
I take it as a compliment
Why don't you shut up?
I can be your weapon
It's so bad
You should know
I'm on and on
To what a bad
When they say
I don't shake your mind
I take it as a compliment
Oh my baby
You should know
I can be your weapon
I'm sitting, you're sitting, don't get high, don't get high
Cause that's what I'm creating, baby girl
She told me that I'm living
If it wasn't for me, it's not
It was my affair
When you're waiting for me, it's not
You said you were so made for you
Doctors and friends and family
When it's time to leave
There was only one thing that must be
Cause so good I became nasty
Nasty
You never thought of something new
I
Take it like a bone, fall in any motion, center of the stage
Open that well, be right here
I'll kill him
You gotta help me out, help me out
I'll have to go six times a day
Here it is championship Sunday of the European Open number four.
Hopefully you guys have been joining us since Friday's broadcast because there's been some ups,
there's been some downs, but all around.
It's been entertainment Saturday has brought us back to a bit of normalcy.
When it came to the bracket, maybe that'll change today.
And welcome in. I'm Leif and with me, Shogun, Johnny and Cole on the desk today.
today. Cool. I feel like we got back to normal. We saw the matches that were supposed to go
4-0, go 4-0. Yeah, a little bit. I think there was chances for the underdogs to get some damage done,
but they just couldn't quite do it. And it's nice to see you leveling out a little bit. We had a
slightly awkward Friday, but Saturday was a bit more normal. And now we can have the big boys
come up against each other. Do you two agree, or do you like the chaos that we were seeing Friday?
So typical Europe is the alpha. Oh, we could be wild of it. We can have some crazy finals that no one's ever seen.
And actually, yeah, Vitality, LIPKC, all very much back in form.
Yeah, I like the chaos. I'm here for it, but it's gonna, it's, you know, it's like a slow cooker.
You've got to wait to see the benefit of the chaos right now.
We're thinking, okay, what does this mean? Well, we're finding that in regional turn three for this
for everything. Yeah, well, I
want my rocket league air
fried. Okay. That's what I
want. I want it now. I can't
tell you why I agree, but I
still agree. Okay. Well, hey,
we are in case you didn't know
where we're at. We're on our
journey right now towards
Paris and we'd like you guys
to join us if you can. If
you're in the region, if you're
about the region, I know a lot
of people aren't but still go.
It's going to be fantastic. If
you want to grab a ticket, you
haven't yet QR code is right
there. Go back, pause it or
just go into that link and
and grab your tickets.
But I want to get a visual on screen right now
to help support what we've just been talking about.
Take a look at the bracket, where we're at right now.
Because again, Friday was chaotic.
Look at the teams that we got in here, Johnny.
I mean, half these teams, I bet you some people,
they don't pay close enough attention,
would have no idea who they are.
Yeah, you're going to need to really pay attention,
of course, with all the team, you know,
bubble teams who get changed to their name
and inventing new words to put in their team names.
Spellings.
I don't believe you when you when you don't follow any of these are some of these teams, but yeah, most notably admitted today K.Carp very disappointing loss there to Manchester City was a great series eventually they showed up and they made it into a close one but yeah, I'm sure everybody was open low key for that vitality against K.Carp in the semis which should no longer happen.
you. Yeah, I think a couple
other notable, uh, Mrs here in
case you again, you're just
joining for the championship
Sunday. You might be looking
and say, Hey, where this couple
teams missing? Uh, Shogan,
Jeff LeMates, uh, GK where they
had. Yeah, gentlemen to maybe a
little bit more acceptable
because they play as Casey, uh,
to not make it. So they're out
in 9 12. But for GK, I mean,
they had sort of a lovely run
even from the love bracket that
they did not make it. So both
to try and get themselves into those top five spots.
And both of them will be looking at teams like Calming Crop
from the kickoff line, who's going, oh, thank goodness,
you got us that extra spot, because this could have been really bad.
Yeah, that's definitely going to help, especially for these teams
that we saw call yesterday, like Inner Circle,
that didn't quite get where they wanted to be against teams like Vitality.
They were close enough, yeah.
I think that Inner Circle, I said on yesterday that my frustration with them
was as the series went on, they seemed to regress
rather than get used to the pace of it.
But you can sort of see why, you know, you're playing the best of seven,
it's four games, the absolute maximum of your capability.
In hindsight, you can sort of see why there's moments like that,
where all three of them are going for the same goal.
But I just hope they have followed that and learned from it,
because there's so much they're going to pick up.
Yeah, again, this is a big level of experience for them.
They're in a good position.
Having GK in general, it's not making it out.
Well, especially the GK one helps overall in the season two for teams like this.
but it really did show us Johnny that a team like Vitality,
they're one of the big dogs for this.
Oh yeah, they're consistent in the moment
and that's something they haven't been for a long time.
So it's good to see that.
Yeah, their skill especially.
It just shows that the difference in composure
between the two players Sarthel were jumping all over the place.
They were panicking in defense, a lot of vitality
showing them how it's done.
And oftentimes that's it.
That's the awareness, right?
When you get a Vesta 7, you have the better team.
Notice those habits and exploit them.
that's encapsulated in that shot perfectly right there.
But of course, we're talking about some of the other teams
that are expected to be at the top in Ninjas and Pajamas.
I'll go back to you, Cole, for this one here.
Ninjas and Pajamas, one of those teams
that we expected to be in those top lines.
Yeah, it was comfortable enough for Ninjas and Pajamas.
I mean, they won the first game 4-0,
and you're thinking about this could be a long series
for Syringes, but to be fair to Syringes,
they battled back, they got that second game,
they won there over time, and it's always nice
to see these other dogs get
themselves at least one game.
This was a key moment for them
as a G G found the Rito.
But I think that Nick Shogan,
you said yourself earlier, I
think that they're starting to
look more like the start of the
season version of themselves.
Yeah, I think yesterday wasn't
their best performance.
I think they sort of got tried
into a very, very messy start
of Rocket League.
Uh, against synergy, so they're
going to be happy to just have
that refresh and then go again
today.
But for ninja pajamas, I mean,
they've had the most yet they're
doing their best.
They're going to be happy to
have that refresh and then go
again today.
But for ninja pajamas, I mean,
they've had the most yet they're
they're doing their job tournament so far. And it's not necessarily somebody to say about all iterations of a NIP. So this is new for them. This is calm. It's comfortable. I don't think the Ninja
pajamas fans are all that used to it. I mean, I've worked with into the pajamas extensively and they're definitely not used to it. It's also not part of the bottom of NIP. So I expect something crazy today.
the first game out of these
two series that the underdog
was able to even just get a
game off of one of them because
then we moved in our next
series and there were none from
cloud eSport as they face down
car mean corp. Now KC started
off a bit rough Johnny on that
Friday. But I feel like this
happens over and over again but
they show up on the weekend.
Yes. Well you can't jump to
conclusions if you're going to
jump to the end of the week
Yeah, it's why you can't jump to conclusions if a team is still in the tournament. It's obviously disappointing for KC to go to the lower bracket, but it doesn't matter as long as they can make the run. And they are making the run. They were extremely comfortable yesterday in their lower bracket run one.
And we're expecting more of the same today against Inter's circle, especially the vitality of Swatton.
You can't see them thinking, well, we should do that as well.
The vitality of the week, we could do it better.
But yeah, you can't count the team out if they're still in the tournament, which person they are.
I think of all the matches that we watched yesterday, this was probably the biggest battering.
You know, not just the amount of goals that were scored, but the general play on the pitch.
Cloudy Sport could barely get the ball in the coming quarter for last round.
the best we can say, Leith, is the every single game,
proud to get themselves a goal, you know,
which is something to take forwards for them.
But, yeah, Casey, well done.
Yeah, I mean, you're definitely Grassman Astros
at that point too.
You're saying, we're looking at this 4-0,
you said it yourself, it was a bit of a beating,
you saw some of those plays, the tier was back,
on is prime, he was looking good.
So I guess, yeah, sure, you can look at,
hey, we got some goals, but I'm gonna want
a little bit more than that next time they come around
to a brand by the way that was my favorite moment yesterday because he
faced doing it was just off the top of time on base like right they've got to use
this they're gonna take this moment make this their own sort of base in history
and they can see that the one second is like oh I love it I love it I have watched
that clip I think it's on the top of the subreddit right now I've watched that
clip about 10 to 15 times the timing is just so brilliant this is perfect
super fun hopefully get mom you say hopefully get fun moments like that
I'm sure we don't want that because the game play is lacking a little bit here, but I'm going to see that moment happen again, that's for sure.
In terms of matches though, we did have one that we knew would go the distance, and by Golly, didn't go the distance, Shogun.
We looked towards Man City and KDOP Corp. Stealing the name of KDC, it seems, has helped a lot.
Oh my goodness, Seiko was unbelievable yesterday in this series. He was everywhere, and on the topic on KDC,
I don't think he's ever lost
here. I don't know where he has
been. He's been robbing us of
performances for the last year
plus. Where is this guy been? I
want this guy on my screen more
often, Johnny. Look at that.
They were just outstanding for
them and also, you know, money
went along to come back that had
been taking this one all the way
to game seven after Manchester
City went up 3-1, Manchester City
completely in control with the
middle of the series, mostly
he's not just a good player,
but he's also a key place kind
of at crown particular. I think
HP was a bit quiet, but he
showed up late made the final
goal, which won the series for
Manchester City. So you know, I
think HP gets because he does
play third for this evening. He
does sometimes get left on an
island. He gets a bit too much.
I think if the blame when
things don't go right for them,
a lot of positives here at the Manchester City as well. Obviously, the fact they made it through
is the positive, but the way they did it. You know, they went to a Game 7, they've been known
as being a team that maybe can crumble or maybe can get unlucky in those key moments.
Happened a couple of times in the last minutes. The fact that this time's shown them going straight
to winning one, huge for them and their new team. Yeah, statistically, they have been diabolical
in Game 5s and Game 7s. Yesterday, I do believe it was the first one that they've actually won.
How was it, 5s as well? I knew 7s. I didn't know they also had a Game 5. Yeah, 5s was also pretty
you're up. It's it's a round
in one of our chats somewhere.
Exactly what it was for them.
But yeah, I mean, obviously,
they've got that win now.
They've got that off their back
and they're still in this
tournament and they're putting
away as of this moment from
those teams that want to make
that top five.
I think this is the key thing
to look at here is the fact
that GK out aren't getting
any more points right now in
Man City.
Kent, you know, like they're
close to taking over that that
fifth spot now and tier B not
that's not far behind. And
honestly, when it comes to the
overall season, you look at
KDOT Corp in the inner circle,
teams like this Johnny, they
reasonably could, depending on
performances, sneak into there as
well. Yeah, if you make Paris,
you're getting points in Paris
potentially as well. And that
means that you can get even more
grinding the season. So G care
far from safe. They didn't pick up
anything off of this event. Well,
and the split points and that's going to prevent them from making Paris, unless they really get a deep run in the next regional.
Hey, well, let's keep some of these highlights moving on here. You know what we like to do. It's a top five place presented by Progressive.
Why don't we hop into it and show again? Why don't you kick us off?
It's good to start off with Vaterra. Did not have the best day on Friday, but yesterday he had a mission to go and get accomplished.
Yeah, let's pull back in the game.
It wasn't all bad for an inner circle yesterday.
Yes, they got swept, but they've had some clips in every single match
they've played this one promotion added to the list
with the beautiful preset, just fighting the gap there
between vitalities defenders.
And yeah, you're going to need to look out for these guys today.
They are mechanical, they're looking to make a comeback.
And here is Akro, when his team needed the most off the backboard.
Bang!
Just under the crossbar.
That is clean.
Backboard is covered cool.
I'll use more of the backboards, and I'll put my team up.
You know, I'm gonna do something that we don't normally do on EUR or CS.
I'm gonna call out T-Base, because yesterday when I was casting him,
he said he was like, oh, I see way too many Flip reset double taps.
OK. No such thing. No such thing.
Give me a hundred more.
Like every single one. I know, I know, I know, I love him.
He, yeah, no, that was clean.
I mean, especially if they're clean like that.
No, I'll take them all day.
I mean, that was just precise.
You look at a corner of the car, beautifully placed.
No, I'll take those all day every day.
That's for sure.
But hey, we do have to move on.
We can't look at those all day as much as we want to.
And just glance around, actually,
at other regions that are playing right now.
We did want to get you caught up as South America is going
to be playing later after the broadcast.
So figured why not give you a quick glance at the SAM
bracket here and what you can expect later on.
I don't know about you guys, any anticipation of what that Grand Finals is probably going to look like?
It's probably Fiora MIBR, isn't it? I mean, they're the top two in the region, 40 points and 40 points.
They're both exactly next to each other, so they're the teams to beat right now.
Has anyone really got a shot taken down for our review?
I don't think so. I don't think it's a secret if they've not had a good record against MIBR.
The one win that secret they get,
there's no other season was against Furia.
So MIBR are the favorites there.
You're kind of playing dodge-fury a lot of the time
when you're trying to make finals in Sam,
but this time MIBR and secret most likely
gonna need to aren't it by beating the other one
in the semi-finals.
Yeah, well, I see support for both teams
for MIBR and Furia.
So yeah, I'll make sure you guys stick around
and check that out after the European broadcast later.
But going on right now, I think they might be
in the middle of a series.
like very well. Yeah. Yeah.
over an eight not not TSM by
the way. So TSM the expected
to make the final of the team
who have been dominating in a
back they would they did play
of course in Boston. Kevin
Catalan thinks they lost to
North Star Gaming in the
semifinal just a moment ago.
So yeah, a chance for Kino
trope and North Star to put
themselves way in front.
And yeah, I was expecting it
expecting it to be Keto Trope, but we're not hearing any final result yet.
It's 1-1 with 50 seconds left in Game 7.
Alright, show us your eyes on this match.
I'll keep an eye on that.
You asked me a question, the odds will be, yeah, sure.
I'm busy watching Rocket, again, understandable.
That's for sure, but yeah, this was the match here that happened.
Again, you look at it in case anyone forgot.
Catalyst Kevin Sphinx, this is the team that's expected to win in that region,
But it was a North Star that took him down.
But these are players that we're unfamiliar with on the other side here.
Cool.
I mean, the Lunar Pangoli Taha, we've seen them all around before.
Yeah, I mean, there's a lot of players that are sort of able to make their career
in various regions of Lunar Taha and Pang and doing that at the moment.
So yeah, Milf Stark, credit to them, credit to them for
putting up against the big dogs who do them all.
Okay, let's, before we get into serious business and championship Sunday here,
let's have a little bit of fun.
Figured I haven't done a War You Watching in a while.
This is a little game.
I like to play to see how much you are watching.
Is it actually?
Yeah, this is a good thing is we're going to work together.
You guys have decided before.
Hey, let's let's combine our brains.
Sorry, I mean, oh, yeah.
Do we have a result?
Yeah, that's fine.
Look at me.
Oversight update.
Nine seconds in.
Oh, yeah.
All right.
Yeah, I'm watching.
I'm paying attention.
OK, they're in it now.
I love it.
I'm glad they timed out.
Let's let me get my questions here.
I gotta sort of run out of here there.
So I'm gonna ask three questions here.
You guys are gonna give me a total of,
well, hopefully three answers.
You're working together.
So figure out what it is.
I'm gonna see if you guys were going attention yesterday.
So why don't we just get into it?
I'm gonna ask you a question.
Chat play along if you want to.
Let's start off with the first one here.
How many spins did Stizzy get on his chair after winning?
Oh wow, okay.
Oh, wait, wait, wait.
How many spins?
Is this it?
Oh, I did not notice this one.
So I'm gonna-
You got up on his chair.
Yeah chamber this
If threes reasonable, I'm gonna offer for one more than reasonable to make you yeah
You're still gonna be closer than chat there
Okay, let's see what our answer was let's count it together
Let's get it on screen. How many spins did Stizzy get on his chair after winning yesterday?
So we see the push off
That was a pull-up performance from Stizzy. All right, we expected more. All right, come on come on Stizzy better spin this time
Yeah, yeah
All right, let's move on to the next one chat. You were you guys were way off of that one. Let's see. Okay next question
How many straw hats made an appearance on yesterday's show? I
Just remember the one just for those two wasn't it? Okay. I just remember the one and reference
one to a shogan I
It's not gonna be anybody from back home, but maybe KC maybe
The case of use cameras yesterday because Casey have that as part of their branding stuff
does someone have there's someone of like a straw hat in a profile picture somewhere that we're
I mean Johnny use a lot of straw man's in arguments, but that's not quite how I do like straw man
that seems like you just used the straw.
Anyway, that's a winner.
You guys are gonna lock it on.
I have to agree.
You guys are the one.
Locking it on one.
Chatting closed agreements.
We're getting one, two.
People really don't want to get too far ahead.
Because we obviously saw the one.
But let's take a look.
Let's count it together.
Was the answer one?
And in fact, was one.
Alright, now cut it.
Now cut it.
Oh, hey.
Yeah.
What is well?
I didn't see that one.
OK.
Good spot.
It's a straw hat day.
That's how it is.
How do you spot that yourself, Liefa?
Was that production help?
I did.
Nope.
I scoured through the footage.
Very good.
Scoured through the footage.
So the answer is just two to everything.
Yeah.
Two to everything.
To where the question is.
Well, pre-upto.
Pre-upto.
You're pre-jumping two on the next slide.
OK.
Okay. Okay. Well, my question is how many colored mics appeared on the broadcast from players and coaches not including black and gray since they're
If you guys want to pre-jump the two then can you what the colors were for bonus points? I was so
Orange, baby. I feel like there's one orange
Yeah, orange, orange, good shot. I like that
So it depends actually, isn't it VP over in America?
It's like the LED red monstrosity
that would annoy me so much,
constantly having that in my peripheral.
Oh, the wiggly one with the light.
Yeah.
Oh yeah, yeah.
Yeah, not for me.
So what do we lay down on?
We've got a little account of Copper Blue.
Blue, definitely.
And then what do you go with?
I've got orange.
I'm shooting.
Blue and orange, nice blue orange.
chat chat is a similar page here they are very high numbers are not locking on
the two let's see what the answer is seven colors out there let's jump in
we've got a red close close close we've got a blue call good call and that's
The final answer is Q, good job.
You're pretty good.
Let's go.
I threw all the orange though.
It was close Shogun, you're in the right realm.
I am, we got the actual question right.
I hope it's the last place that we missed out on one of them.
You know what, I liked your performance guys.
The pre-jump all the two at the end there, phenomenal.
Good stuff.
Okay, well I think it's all the finalest.
We gotta do something quick because the kickoff is coming real fast here.
you want to do a quick early prediction here,
chat again, get involved,
thanks for playing along there too,
but get involved in this one as well.
We're gonna quickly see who we think is going to be going
to the Paris Major.
So if we pull up the points,
we can get an idea of what teams are here,
where they're at.
What are our expected ones?
I feel like Shogun, there's a couple of you,
we can just throw probably on the board.
Yeah, I'm gonna say the three teams,
and if anybody here wants to just shout at me,
just go, no, not a chance.
Then get out of the way now,
because otherwise we're gonna have to be
the final two spots.
I'm just turning up everywhere.
NIP, Vitality, and Casey are the three.
We just sort of say, yeah, they're making it,
and then we can hike over the final two spots.
Okay, let's argue.
Well, I mean, is it an argument?
I mean, I want to throw up general mates as one of those spots.
Yeah, they'll get back.
I find it interesting that you've gone general mates
before Manchester City.
Manchester City will get in.
I think the State Court of Industry is looking good.
So like I said, he's a good, a good five.
Okay. I think we all just said gentlemen.
Yes. Are we all agreed on the man?
I don't really going to be this.
I don't know. I can't.
That's why I was going to say I'm in my own life.
I really can see, because Joe mates this entire season,
it's not like this hasn't been coming.
They keep doing weird stuff in their Swiss brackets
and wrecking any sort of seating
that we've got going into the actual tournament.
So is there really no hope for GK?
Like, are you guys doing this?
Did you get it?
There's so far back already.
So they're starting with a massive disadvantage and you know the other teams like they're playing quite well
Well, so that's the other issue they've got is they're really gonna they're gonna need to do an exceptional job
In one of the next two events and really solid in the other one minimum and they probably need somebody else to stumble
I mean, well, but Jeff gentleman, it's only as I think one more point than them
That's gentleman. So like that's not the team. I don't think I mean you could say they're trying to say gentleman spot
But yeah, I think gentleman's
the next team up then would it
would it be GK are we are we do
we just immediately go now be
talks talks to now get 6th.
That's always the lazy option.
Well, that kid.
I mean, I think it's okay.
So yeah, this was everyone goes
all that'd be really fun.
They've actually done it.
Oh, okay.
Either way.
No, it's like that for a while
last year.
Every single one of these teams
is is thanking Casey every
single day that that extra spot
the game is coming up in about
five minutes time. So let's
get some of this homework out
of the way. Guys, reminder, if
you want to take a different
perspective of the field, you
can do that over on twitch.TV
slash R. L. E. Sports. You take
a look at the crowd cam. You
can see all the rotations are
going. Maybe where some of those
boosts are happening off camera.
Just so you can know exactly
those finer details. You can
see the game is coming up in
Exactly those finer details and then also keep the mainstream up so you can see you know
Exactly if someone got a flip reset and what kind of angle they got attached to get that that nice shot on that
With Easter approaching you could be an egg in the crowd
That's true. You could role play
I like it. I love it. Good call a call
keep it out here though because we have a
Price will look at 18 points for first place. That's gonna be huge
We just take a look at where teams are in terms of their their run towards Paris again
These points also count towards overall for the season to so that'll be the critical column that people are looking at
Here's the bracket one more time in case you need to remind it ever but more importantly is the schedule
When is your favorite team playing?
We're gonna know the order right now Casey inner circles up first man city synergy after that
And then we got to determine who's gonna be playing by playing these first couple matches here
Best of sevens across the board championship Sunday. It's here guys lock in five
five, fast as sevens to go.
Carmine Court and Inner Circle are going to start us off.
Inner Circle trying to prove that the underdogs still got it,
but the wall of KC is going to be standing in that their way.
The Blue Wall Johnny is an inevitability for Sunday.
Yep, this is the, well, I was going to say this is the big test.
They're already halfway through their test, I guess.
This new Inner Circle squad, they failed the first part of the test yesterday,
but the second part of the test is today.
I want to move the question away from, do they have a chance of winning?
And it's not because I really don't want to make it sound as if we're just completely getting the night all ready.
But we've got to start small. Do they get a game? Do they get one game?
I'm going to go yes against Casey.
I'm going to say yes. They're in the lower bracket now. So Casey, even Casey will be feeling a little bit of pressure.
I think we saw enough from them against Vitality yesterday. They were getting goals on a lead.
they were taking leads or at least they were equalizing. They forced an overtime as well.
I think if you could do that against Vitality, you can get a game against Carmeen Corp. And I
just think that this time, as opposed to yesterday's show, even it was brand new to them,
being in these best of sevens, I've got that little bit of experience and I've got to get them
over the line in one of them. You've got such a happy upbeat mood there in the YouTube. You
brought me in like, I'm going to go, yeah, let's go. Tell me down. That's fine. All right, let's go.
game off this one. So ever,
um, the casey are going to
look at anything vitality can
do. I can do better. All
vitality only one every single
game by one. Okay, but what if
I won every single game by four
and that's just the mentality
that team like Casey has. I
think this is too much for
this. This is an absolutely
brutal draw. But it's how
they've got by playing so good
on the Friday. Yeah, this is
This is tough chat.
All right, do we feel like you,
I don't know, maybe even just vote for a game right now.
Get a progressive game vote.
Yeah, let's do that.
Let us know if they get a game.
Give us an over 50% if they get a game.
I say no, I don't think they get a game.
I think it's a sweep.
Go on, guys.
Give the game.
They're worthy of the game.
How are you thinking about it?
Is the one, Cole, or just the game?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, one game.
It's gonna be one game.
And then the rest will be smashings.
And certainly the final game will be like a 16 or KC.
Do you know what I mean?
If that makes sense?
I've come around to inner circle just a little bit because I've finally gone on to some of our documents that we use
I've clicked ignore all on the misspelling of circle and suddenly
The red squiggle of doom I think they get overtime now actually
Okay, that's something
I'll give him specifically game two over time and then every other game. Yeah, Casey in regulation. I
I don't see it unreasonable that they take a game, but I'm kind of on the train that they don't get it here
I feel like Casey has been on a linear
Scale right now getting better throughout the weekend, which I mean we expect from them and I just feel like
inner circles probably
Dylan a position
inner circles probably still in a position where they're going to overthink things. They're still in
this. They're playing one of the best teams. They have something to prove here. And I feel
like that's going to get a little bit ahead of them. So I'd have to say Casey probably best.
Well, there's currently 1.2 million channel points on inner circle getting a series with
so again, that seems pretty like it.
That's a decent odds there, because we've got 90 million on KC.
The odds are not terrible, but yeah, I mean, it's K's carving cart.
They look like they're really on form.
They're in great form now that we've made it into the playoffs,
maybe not so much in the group stage and the Swiss stage.
They can maybe topple, but this is Champ Sunday.
Surely KC are just going to be way too much for this new squad
who got swept yesterday, which is not going to be wonderful.
would like to remind people of is that yesterday against
mentality in a circle started off pretty well, you know, by
the end of it, they were really struggling. I'd say I'd say
golf's in particular in that final game from what I could see
when casting, he looked a little bit lost. As long as I don't
get lost, as long as they keep themselves themselves and avoid
those triple commits, which much easier than done against
calming court from before yesterday, a calming courts
game. But yeah, I don't know, I just got a feeling. I've just
got a feeling for this one.
Keep themselves to themselves, AK, just run away from the ball
the whole time and just run away from atto.
I mean, it sounds like, uh, and I would never have doubted this that we flip an entire blue desk care.
Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah.
You ain't that cool.
I think it's just undeniable that the KC has to be the favorites coming into this.
You look at the channel points too.
I bet you will see it with the chat prediction in just a second here.
I did ask for an over 50% if we think we'll take even just a game.
So I wonder if chat even is on that train right now.
So I wonder if chat even is is on that train right now. You guys think or maybe but it does feel iffy
And overall this is going to be if they can do it a great proving point for inner circle
Shogun, I guess I
Guess for these team like do we is this a team that if they're gonna get sweet or swept
Do we even expect to see them in a top 8 in the future?
Well, that's a bit difficult part isn't it because they do need more of these
You know they are now in running an incantation for those power spots. So
Yeah, I mean, they've got to go and try and do this again, but unfortunately, I guess on who they're running into.
Well, it's my experience at this point, but I think this is just a difference in class.
I mean, that's really, I mean, just not who to run into now, but both times.
I mean, you go on a fatality and decay course.
I joined out of a bracket.
Yeah, that's what's here on the road to Friday.
That's pretty rough, but hey, yeah, you're right.
At this point, if you want to be the best, you got to win.
Chat, not enough faith to even take a game here.
We'll find out what happens in a best of seven.
It's elimination down here and not lower brackets elimination all day as we look for a champion here in the open
It's number four for the European region k-corp inner circle. Who's it gonna be?
And though in the wake of
The regional discourse there could not have been a better person to open up you open number four
And of course, you're my man, yourself.
And I talk to myself, I think I am.
The throw has been caught in a way.
Tyler Bates on the mic here with Cole, Man-Filled Knight.
Game one, brought to you by Progressive.
Let's get into it.
That was beautiful, and it was like with Wave Punk himself
after that, teammates.
I loved it. Thank you very much.
I'm going to introduce the pre-show.
And now we are here.
I've backed in a circle to get themselves a game
after what we saw yesterday.
Am I crazy, teammates?
You said that on that. You said they get a game.
Yeah, I said that.
How do you get a game cap?
That's a fair point.
I think I saw enough promotion in particular.
He's a game winner. He's a gold scorer.
And then we're getting goals.
And then we're getting some bugs.
Scores was intercepting as they get to the tower.
You get a little bit luckiest.
It's minimum four games here.
You get lucky in one of them.
Okay.
You're lucky in one of them.
So I take $1 by side.
Well, I think it's going to take a little more than luck.
Insane that, though.
You saw this case, he scored yesterday.
going what they do constant constant pressure at toe demos and they hear you
mention the at toe demos on the free show on the desk I did I did I said they
have to run away from it that's right that's something inner circle has to
deal with but I hope you're seeing the series just against KC
for the Cinege I was a session late like KC I'm not looking at the bracket
but even might have been or no it's cloudy he's probably cloudy
And what seemed to be successful for a little bit, was the infield passing the horizontal
leg, you like, you can tell that the cloud, if it's inner circle squad can utilize that,
try to take more cloud and you can score a bit well, they might have a chance.
Well let's see, so far this game is looking very different to the cloud e-sport game that
we saw yesterday, and that can't be called by having all the balls for themselves and
all of the pressure, okay, so you're actually having to do a little bit of defending in the
They're defending in the first 90 seconds here as force wheels around this one of them to get the ball into the sense
It's not really particularly penetrate penetrative possession right now for them
But there's something here that I'm seeing so far face. This is in a circular in this guy
Yeah, I do like that like the pace of the moment of the map
Right now they haven't let KC just do what they do
But we expect to see how he's passing off the pressure. They're forcing you back in your own back there
We haven't seen that just yet
Honestly, so far Inner Circle's done a great job and I actually like this little fall in promotion.
Speaking of that, just the solo place to catch right here by Gauss gives it some of the chance.
Forces out two from KC. Inner Circle now looking bad on Rip.
Here, a readable flick there from Gauss. That against Miss T makes way out.
That's a good double grip because Motion's able to skim that one into the quarter.
Great start here from Inner Circle. Very impressed.
The juicer's coming forward now. KC will find their way into this series.
Inner Circle has played the most of this opening bout of oppression that they've had.
Serious tries to take out motion, can't do it, and motion sweeps up very well as well.
They're not being rushed here by Casey.
They are not at all.
They are starting to get pressured right here, Casey.
Boots grab right there from the tirade.
Golfs just float and get the ball out.
Once again, I'm liking how I'm seeing out of golf.
Just controlling the blade, keeping the ball tight,
giving it to him opportunities right there.
Most actually had some space, especially to the left-hand side
where he could have done something with that.
And he's got to be careful, though, because simple, sloppy, lazy shots at neck.
Nick, when Casey's not in position, it's the counter-text.
Yeah, but that 50 from Juicy was a little bit off, but Metira was bad, but I'm not sure that's what Juicy intended.
What was that one up for Carmine Corp? But the later this game goes on, the longer it remains at nil nil,
the more of a chance the Inner Circle will have to Nick one.
Let's see though, here comes Atto, he's got the ceiling play.
He tries to set himself up, Gawse is reading that one, and once again,
Inner Circle are reading everything Casey are offering so far.
Sure are, and they're doing a pretty good job at it, looking so far to stats.
Well, don't look at that's too much.
They only have one shot, but it feels like they have more than one.
What?
How is it five shots to one?
I don't know.
And they feel like they're doing better.
They have a shot on right there from that.
But Tiro comes in looking for a double-tuck.
And he didn't know he can't.
No, he can't.
And all I heard was from the free-shot.
Well, you called me out.
You'd like to see the reset double.
So I still don't like seeing him as much as I am now.
And sometimes he's got to be like Juicy yesterday.
Slam one into the net.
And that's what Casey's really good at.
Look at that, look at that, that'll slap me on Q, that's what you gotta do.
This is absolutely right on this occasion, motion's touched, wasn't I feeling, waiting on the boost hoping it would spawn, it didn't happen.
That's no sense this chance, slaps that one into the center, could it have been saved by VORCE?
We'll have to have a look later, but it is 1-0 coming, Corp, and again, as you say, statistically they've dominated, that's not what I've seen.
I haven't seen that either. It was quite shocking when in the little tap, but on the keyboard right here, the shot was at such disparity between the two squads.
That was more so like it was midfield battle where Inner Circle was getting the chances, but ever since the goal happened for KC, now you're starting to see the squads.
The Vati demo on the back end, happily gets a touch, makes Force have the work.
Lucky for Force, they've been forced into the boost.
A shared hit in a circle a little bit of time, good lead them up, but no follow right there, Goss.
Miss touch, Ato looking for a touch as well.
Shot on target force near the meeting.
In a circle of a wave, they pick up some boost in the last 20 seconds or so.
Finally it's happened, so this could be their chance to approach towards Blue territory.
There's a bump there in the center.
Force misses in motion, as they're completely stranded up against Betzira, does enough to get the ball away.
20 seconds left, this one's to the left.
It's gonna last for just a moment here, Cole.
Worst pops right back out by now.
It should be Juicy's ball.
Whenever he gives a second before he really gets out.
Ooh!
They were from motion on material.
I left them on Ato.
Two depth for KC.
What is in the circle?
How's nothing?
Juicy does the work.
Gets it all the way back into the Orange half.
Orange corner, I should even say.
And now, only three seconds left.
They're gonna have to really work against the score.
Juicy closing away yet again.
Worst keeps the ball up, but what the hell is the ground in it does?
I think I'm right.
Yeah, five seconds left. What?
Yeah, that one absolutely flew by.
Can't be cool looking pretty chill about everything.
But I think they will know as well as we do
that that game wasn't as comfortable
as some people were expecting.
They were like, I'm down and shot.
I'm mind blown by this.
Apparently this was 11 shots to one.
Did you see an 11 shots to one game there?
Because I did not.
But towards the back, you know, I said last two minutes.
It felt that way, but I don't believe it.
And whenever I mentioned it, I was struggling to open up the tab.
Yeah.
But whenever I got the tab up and I looked at the shots, I was quite shocked at that
for the halfway point.
At the other point, KC at five, and the circle had one, and they hadn't shot another one,
I guess I would have rested again.
But the point is, it didn't feel that way, which is quite surprising because...
What?
Yeah, what were you gonna say?
I was gonna say that if in a circle can make it feel surprising for stats to be that weighted
against them throughout this
series, they'll have done well.
Because, statistically, that's a
sort of game that we could have
expected. Do you know what I mean?
Calming Crop to be dominating in
a circle, but I think the motion
had chance. I think the divorce
made one or two wrong decisions
at key moments. But there
definitely were opportunities for
in a circle to get themselves not
necessarily scoring opportunities,
but certainly decision-making
opportunities that if they, you
know, go for a bump instead of a
50-50 or vice versa, maybe
something could have fallen from
them. So lots of positives to take
What's the tip to take for the circle?
Yeah, I agree.
There's a couple other customers they could make in terms
of when they do have the ball.
I do like how they have that double demo,
but they've got to be clean.
They can't let Juicy get the big clear on the back
and bring it all the way back to the corner.
You took out two.
The 50 has to be great in that moment to give yourself
the chance to score against KC.
You've done 80% of the work, but you've
got to finish it off with the last 20.
Otherwise, it all goes away.
So a little bit rushed, a little bit
sloppy in key moments in the circle.
KC to their credit, they did what had to be done, they got their 1-0 win.
Quite the anything Vitality can do, we can do better than the desk predicted.
There's plenty of time for that to happen. It was yesterday in their series where
the Tira, in game 2 where the Tira scored a hat trick in the opening, I think,
70 seconds or something like that, so it'd be spur to life here on within 10th and again.
But it's not as duty going to the ceiling, motion's already pre-jumped that one well.
force against that so get something on it
there's a middle and then he follows through as well as an odd pass but it's
here a good play from horse doing a lot with zero boots that was absolutely
lovely right touch them back to the upper block don't think he was gonna come
out he played it pretty decently to product not immediately want to try to
bring him back out to the me horse there is no any flu all the way down stop the
Casey attack to look like it was wrong let's again a minute in 10 seconds in
and it's not being KC dominance so far.
Motion gets onto his own backboard.
Juicy's up against him.
Juicy was hoping they'd be at this, but not quite.
Now, Motion gets a great pinch.
Can't get any boost after it.
He's a little prompt, he's a little touch,
just like, I'm getting some jabs in.
Calving Corp.
Still yet to concede.
Here we go.
That's looking like it might change.
His force went to the ceiling.
Not a lot of threat right there.
The build up was great.
Got body to defend her like you wanted,
but the power on the shot, it's gotta be more.
It's too easy for him to tear on the back wall right there.
He's going to save that every single time.
Ooh, nice play from Motion there for a second.
It looked like Boss was going to be left isolated
against Calming Crop with full boost,
but there was plenty of work done there
before the Bull got to the final defender.
In a circle, a defending well for each other,
and winning support of these 50s.
Motion does it again.
How's this one going to pull?
Another juicy clear.
This is a guy who's going to fall.
They got it.
They got to watch the juicy clears.
They get it, they move,
and then Jucius comes right through
and just slaps it all the way back into that orange corner.
Oh, here comes Vati, potential here, reset.
See, doesn't like to reset though.
Oh my god, there's nobody, okay.
You know, cast the curse.
Cast the curse, and it's not a great clearance there from Vols to be fair.
Vols should have done back serve, but Tira pretty much gave the Vols straight to it.
And then Vols pretty much gave the Vols straight back while taking himself out of the goal.
Not great defending there in the end.
Yeah, Vols did that and in golfs, he needs a map though.
grow up the field with zero moves. He didn't worry about it. It's not it's not gonna cut it.
How did I say that? Three set doubles number three, but there it is!
Slap touch is gonna come from the top. It's all right now, Cole.
Absolutely love it. Motion up quick as well. New look goes, was getting that dunk of
Viterra and getting the second touch as well. And as you said, Bates, slam it down. Nothing
wrong with it. Quick action rocket league there. Then the circle. Two get there, requires
with a magazine strike to kick up Ato.
Ato has this one cleanly as the player with the score for him in motion.
Good defending, and has the composure as well.
Oh, he's gone from the goal.
Oh, huge cover!
Force!
Can he get this one?
Force Ato! He can!
And it is in!
Two-one in a circle!
Opportunistic play right here from Gauss.
Just goes all the way up.
That's so much faith in his team.
Ato's buzzing as the child voice reads it.
Simple 40, simple 45 degree angle flick.
Right over the top, into the net.
Before Batty can get back as well.
Look at her circle, they scored two!
Scored two and taken two shots as well.
And in a circle, so 100% up for now, Juicy.
He's trying to get Kami caught back into this one. Who expected this?
He'll give you a clue, he's ginger.
Atom gets it forward, force up against him.
That's a great look from Korps there, but Tira will be able to get this touch motion on the side.
Tira gets a lovely couple of touches, but force has pulled boost.
In a circle, it's hitting the pace of play at the moment.
Exactly, trying real solid games right here and they're also matching KC and the physical side of the game.
Got a couple demos to their name.
One beat himself, go with another one coming from up.
Doing what KC does, just taking out the help.
Attles that third man up lead.
Logs came and got that demo as well.
So, inner circle, making the necessary adjustments.
Mucking up the game, playing physical against KC.
He's going to give you a chance to compete.
Juicy's up. Juicy looking the most likely so far for coming called the most composed as well.
I forget these 50-50s it seems to be in a certain some sort of danger.
Let me infield.
Pasta Tera has to go on dogs.
Lovely decision man from Ato.
Oh shit, it's just beautiful boars.
I don't know what he's doing right there.
He's set into the corner.
It's a poor touch.
It's a give away of a touch.
Ato just sees him says don't worry just keep flopping off the ball with me.
Slide it right to the middle.
Ato, Pasta Tera, the dynamic duo talked about him yesterday when they had two greatest
This is often been in step-winder series.
That one's much more simple, much more clean.
It doesn't matter enough, because in a circle call,
can you take the lead again?
Yeah, Motion just pups it forwards, chases it down,
and Bors with no wonder,
Dunk, he's been questionable defensively in game number two,
but in attack, he's done some work.
His second goal of the game,
Motion has almost 600 points.
And once again, in a circle, have a slender lead now,
with 80 seconds or so left,
Time is going to speed right up, er, we're going to go so slowly for them, should I say.
I don't mean we're going to have to rush themselves, but Tira tries to make a mistake half the motion over the juicy.
Atto's chasing back, we'll get this one. Time still comes for another KC, but that's going to change fast.
Two demos for KC right there, Atto gives one, Juicy gets another, but he tries to bring it all the way down to fill.
Can he fit this wall on board?
Oh, well done.
He almost does it all by himself.
Yeah, no, but that was well done for motion. He had to dodge Bors, and then get the touch of outscoring the own goal.
God, I have to do so much work and manage to do so.
Force will try to swipe Casey out the way on the floor.
Force loses that one.
Juicy is going all the way around.
Tries to get the bottom of motion, isn't able to do so.
So Force gets the touch.
Atoy forces it up.
Casey will know now that time is rapidly decreasing.
Juicy in the corner.
Atoy in front of him.
No one to plop, no one to demo.
Juicy takes it slow.
Still showing composure, can't be caught.
In the circle able to see this one away, Bates.
It makes to be the same, Voxy off the wall quickly to Atom, forces out a touch of motion.
Atom no blue, so he's got a retreat.
It's Inner Circle just a little bit of space, Juicy off the ceiling.
Right-hand side should have faked a different material, he does.
Soft touch down to Atom, but unfortunately it doesn't go his way.
Voxy stays with Atom, trading some golfs.
Two second left, Juicy on the side, Woff, drops it back down.
Tensily nobody.
Fall hits, Inner Circle takes game two and style.
And that's how you respond after game number one.
Yeah, they do, baby.
In a circle, get themselves a game.
They love to see it.
Yeah, I said they get a game.
Oh, you picked up a game.
Yeah, not to win the series.
OK, OK, OK.
But I mean, you know, who knows.
Stranger things have happened.
They'll be up there with the strangest things that have happened.
In a circle, what's a knock, can I mean, call power?
Anyway, remains to be seen.
I think what we can say, guys, is we have a series.
We have a series.
That was the best part.
Now now it's best five one a piece next one to get three and I just do it like we're intercircle them right there
They have the good ideas in the game number one
That's why we talked about it was just so surprising at the stats just so lopsided because in a circle
They would bring the ball right trying to keep possession forcing out forcing KC to have to respect what they're doing
Ultimately that game in enough slipping away
They only lost by one but the shot total got it's great disparity this game
They've had some demos on the rotation back even up optimistic demos before they even have the ball
Gosh, this went hunting so early in the play
He's gave his team the one people wanted and ultimately I think that was forced right there went right by at so good ideas
Good execution. That's what it takes. Hey, don't start up. He's also about the ultimate team man as well
I mean, he's not getting as many points as he has been motion
He got I probably been told now that he was way ahead of his teammates score-wise
but it's Gorsuch's opening up a lot of these avenues for his team.
He is the player who is playing in front of the ball,
always using it, taking a bunch of the demos.
The circle.
He needs to enjoy themselves here,
he needs to have some fun in this low-ranking quarter-final.
And they keep the going, Gorsuch's coming in,
and it's an early lead.
But in a circle, I'll tell you what, in case you lose this one,
it's the tactical time-out, surely.
It's the tactical time-out.
I agree, because the defense right here is off-watching.
I don't know where Juicy was jumping at.
You just kind of jump with no momentum, no speed.
Cardinals in a Rockley. You don't do that. The person with the ball is just gonna go around you
Left by Tina terrible position. He's gonna get 50 and force does exactly what he's supposed to do
Here's the child force him out
And the ball just gracefully goes into the back of the neck in a circle playing well
Tommy go how to wrangle this one back is beginning to get away from them East momentum wise
It's not left in the series. Don't be panicking just yet, but there's something thinking hmm
He's in the circle, he's got something about him.
He has something about themselves.
Retirah tries to bounce that one in.
It's a lovely idea.
Good save between two of the battlers.
He's almost there.
Off gets it in the corner.
And it's 1-1 just like that.
They better score right here.
I was a little disappointed.
I don't know if I'm going to score.
Retirah jumped so early.
Juicy just played it so well.
Isolated worse, I think, and then,
threw it off the back wall.
Hey, Batty, clean hit.
Batty came in a little hot.
And the Apto had to do the work.
All three of them, Casey, don't get it going.
One-one apiece.
And now, in the circle, we're going to have to do
They've been doing it again, scoring from Casey Dunn's.
He got one, Mr. Nudge and Batera.
And then a circle,
if people played up first,
they'd have scored from Kickoff.
That one had it gone in.
I think that would have been the third kickoff goal
they would have got.
Of course, it's causing us all trouble yet again.
50-50's a look inside for him.
Juicy leaves that one for Atta.
Atta has no boost, so Juicy sits behind
just in case anything pops above him
so we can go up and swipe that ball away.
He has to use the aerial.
This course misses in the corner,
causes a little bit of confusion fit in a circle
and more double connects.
So we're starting to see that bad habit from yesterday
right by Fermisuckle.
They're getting away with it at the moment.
Sometimes, you know what I say,
both of us are a good sign.
That means everybody's confident
they want to go for the ball.
Sometimes they end up going in the wrong way,
but listen,
sometimes they end up having to have
a MEC World Champion,
double commitment call.
We can't, we can't,
we can't look too, too much into it.
As long as we're staying composed,
we're long enough to where they can stay alive.
That's all that matters.
Golf's just again,
I'm loving this from Golf.
He's keep washing it up,
set it up,
he's really controlling the pace,
getting the demos,
and bringing the ball down too. Just slowing it down when he needs to look at right here to go keep it nice and tight.
Force for Terran to take the challenge. Here right by him as well. Look for a bump too.
Motion double! He was going to reset double! You did it!
Your team, he was down and finished!
Ah! It's just lovely playing until the reset double gets popped out.
There's a difference between these elite teams. They've all got great mechanics.
Every single one of the players on this pitch, but it's that decision making you're right.
The motion was following up, Vorc just had to leave it for him.
The Vorc saw the ball and thought, I'm going to hit the ball, I'm going to prove that I can.
Anyway, play moves on, 1-1 now, Gorbs in the corner, tease up Vorc, Vorc 1 touch,
Batira's onto that one quickly, Carl Minkov trying to up the pace someone.
That's a lovely touch from Gorbs.
He's beginning to come into this series now, after playing, uh,
a little bit more offensively up to then, but then in the corner, Carl Minkov do so much from so little.
And that's the difference.
Back up and coming right there.
Double commit came back on. You're talking about it.
And a double commit, it was silly.
Whoever went for that ball with golf's golf,
he just had to let golf get to 50.
Let the teammate back in the 1-2 against KC,
and he'll come back cornered, ball coming at you.
It's the near-possible position of being, probably
the worst position to be in defense in Rock League.
AC can see it right there, and then they
have to ult me and end up scoring off of him.
And circle making the same mistake.
Very cool.
Building ourselves up.
into this series doing what they have to do they've got the city finals in their
sights a while away from that though material is that gonna be a pre-goal
for him yes it is
I thought he was gonna try to read her again miss it would have been
comfortable put that on the top to it look like he thought better I think
midway through. I think Friday for Tira. That's going for the redirect man.
Carmichael overall, we're getting to pull away here and we're seeing what we saw yesterday where
the fatigue I guess in a circle begins to show and some open defending comes in. There's also,
you know, because Carmichael was definitely improving too, but of course now we're chasing
down Tira. Monster, Stammer gets his own backboard force, goes high, Tira can go for this one with
22 boost wisely way such awareness from the tear a catch this blicks motion back the calming up now
Hating how fast this what is playing?
Yeah, I think it is the mental thing they played so well so far
But that's what it takes in order to get the case you gotta be locked in the whole entire match
There's some time left here though 1 30 left decent opportunity for boxy redos we does right by him
Ocean does get a touch, Goff's misses, no!
Off the post, Juicy falls, it's all hit.
4-1 KC.
The circle is pouring away again, number 3.
Yeah, they've brutally wrestled back the momentum to this game in this series.
Remember that it was in a circle that actually took the lead in this one.
And since then, Calving, Corbyn, they've not even changed anything.
You know, they've had the confidence and the will to just continue doing what you're doing.
You're in a circle, they're having a bit of a moment, that's okay.
pay, you might concede a game in a best of seven, keep on going. You will get those opportunities
and now Calmingcorp are reaping those rewards, but it could be a chance now for an Assurant.
They can't go soon. This game isn't quite dead just yet, but it's increasingly difficult. I think
as well, maybe if Calmingcorp were made once a week, it's just focusing a little bit more on their
50-50s. Every 50 they get in there, they're slowing in, they're allowing it a circle to be those,
you know, those speeds to brush at the ball, to snatch a ball, and Calmingcorp are just waiting,
holding the bombs like the then counter attacking when the chance comes
or a arms win I like that and also doing free jump passes this lovely hole
at all comes in a little too high body action three jumps juicy pass right there
it went too far ahead so he just adjusts midair that was nice right the atto
after this came a little too high looking at this game though pretty much
done it's done yeah done it sealed up nothing more really talk about a juicy
gets another one. Yeah, the next situation. I believe we've spoken to apparently Jack.
I don't know if he'll post with me. I can't remember if it's like in an official interview
or if it was in pieces content. I just can't remember. He said that when his team are sort
of, you know, one of those games where you go five nil down or whatever, it's over and
then it's 45 seconds left. Apparently Jack and his team, they like to continue through
half-com. They don't relax, they don't sit back, they don't think, okay, this one's over.
Let's, you know, save our energy. They keep it going. They keep their foot on the pedal.
Wait, where do you land with that mix?
Oh, shoot, I'll tell you how I'm not, I would not be hard coming.
I'm often not making shit.
Sure, sure, you can find a piece of it.
You know, like, what you'd expect what you'd like to do.
Exactly, we ever got heat.
That extent where we got down 5141 again.
Yeah, I mean, mentally, I'm already moving on to the next game.
I might talk to my team and say, you know, what do you want to do?
We want to try now. We want to go with where we have to work with in this game
Kind of use it away as a pseudo time out. Mm-hmm. Take an extra time out. We did have time out zero back
They let you get the general you get the general presence. Yeah, yeah
I mean this game the game is just a lot of losses and wallets. There's not much I can do here
Especially if it's just over ball
flow game and I can feel it
That's why I'm thinking about I'm gonna circle and think about my mom or two that I had
It was motion or was it force that reset double base?
Oh yeah, it was force who go in front of motion.
Yeah, I got some moment where I'm talking,
you have a good chemistry.
Yo, I'm coming up on that play.
I don't need you going for that.
Go for a bump or something, keep it simple, keep it clean.
Hey, see, they didn't necessarily have that much offense.
I know they scored five.
And five is a lot, but they weren't really
doing that via their usual way, offensive pressure.
They're more so doing it because the circle is just committing so hard.
And in case he is taking advantage to your credit, you brought up out of
case he's focusing more on 50 50s and seeing to be that they focus on 50 50s,
slowing it down in circles.
And then has to adjust to what case he's doing.
And that's why I think.
The grid.
Yeah, I'm with you there as well.
Yeah.
What a game is about that.
I've been thinking go next, but this is when you've had up to step right back up.
Because now we are next.
I mean pop will be hoping they expecting that they're able to build upon what they just
You know we're able to put their opponents to the sword and I'll try and go one step further even of themselves
But a brand new game is a brand new opportunity
So let's see if they see are able to do that or for the circle to drag them right back down with this one
It could be that lovely effort part of that one to force nice idea. Love to see that for course
Yeah, I really do like what I've seen out of doctor for us in the set once again
He's keeping tight, it feels to me it is.
If what he's on the ball is getting by one,
got it by two right there from Kate against KC, so.
Boss of the moment gets another demo,
got a chase juicy force in the jump as well.
Get a lot of value from Boss, but his team is after him.
They have to help him out a little bit.
Mochi's got to be effective when he gets the rock.
And so does force.
He also has a fast ball,
he's got enough boost to wrangle something out.
And I want to say that a little bit awkward,
he doesn't land great,
but catch the demo at the end of it.
Now of course, lovely effort, and that recounts what's going to dunk on Atto, sort of does it.
Excuse our wide into the corner, and another bump comes in.
Barl KC, every time they land anywhere near the ball, they're being at the very least nudged or nibbled away.
Nice quick towards motion. Oh, that was hard, he couldn't quite get the redirects.
The ideas are all there, once again, just control the pace, pass it by.
There's a bad pop up finder.
Oh yeah, that was a bad pop up finder right here.
That one, bad one indeed, he didn't want to give Atto that much pace.
I didn't realize Borscht had no boost. Borscht had to follow the gauze popping and Ato just does the rest.
All the way back down to the ground goal. Beautiful.
Yeah, a little motion. Nice one comes into it. Ato immediately says thanks.
In the in-game quick chat.
Motion pops out on 2-0. Could be really difficult putting a circle to come back from.
This could be too hard. It is. Ato out the double.
I mean, they're kick-offs are just divine. They always get so much pressure. Ato gets an awful demo.
Up the mid, left boost and then comes in and messes out to the bottom left corner.
Instantly off the kickoff and that's what you kind of worry about against Karmine Corp.
They just win it all three phases of the game.
Offense, defense and then kickoff.
Best of sense, wherever you want to freeze and token the coin.
I don't know what I'm saying, I don't know what I'm talking about.
You don't know what I mean.
Yeah, we know you mean, we know you mean.
I'll tell you as well, I believe.
I'm gonna put my stacks hat on right now. I believe that's seven interrupted for calming court
Hey interrupted for calming court, I would say
First time he's a bit of a bit of a shooter. They have a procession for KC
Check what is that for you?
The phrase I'm thinking something. I just cannot think of it. It's not coming to what's the phrase tell me. I might miss this
What what's the phrase?
token the praise coin token I don't know is what you call it a phrase the
coin a phrase that way yeah yeah yeah that's that's what I'm looking for then
thank you sir that's all I'm looking for that's a lock down in for a second in
the meantime great to chat as well I see some people in chat actually answering
your question so that's not good that is high-level trick theory as well I
appreciate that chat thank you
three now and a calming call now looking supremely comfortable as we expect
That'll be even subconsciously starting to turn an eye towards potential semi-finals.
I noticed earlier there could be a potential finals with team vitality, obviously jumping forward a long way.
It's on my board.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll still have to go back through Ninja the Pojamas first to get that off the tier with me.
50% that was that? You gotta love that, yeah?
Nope, nope, nope, nope, no flipper sub right there.
It's just got no clinical old-school Rockley.
This is straight up...
Oh, sorry, okay.
You just go for a clean double nice and quick.
You get the job done.
That's just clinical rock, Lee. You don't have time to adjust.
If you want for a reset double right there, there's potential.
That the opponent has time to get up and read that and stay,
put Bop off the back wall right above the crossbar.
Little reset month, month in promotion.
Had a lot of power, but to know Vail when this game number four
is just not going the way in a circle is one to go.
Yeah, it's becoming a little bit disastrous now for an Escal.
I mean, in the last game, when they were 5-1 down for 20 seconds, I'd be on team Go next,
whereas now, 4-0 down with 2-5 in left, you have to stay completely locked in.
Even if you're thinking, okay, we're not winning this one, you do not want to be embarrassed.
They're still game 5 to come after this.
You don't want to come into that conceiving, you know, 6 or 7 or 8, which could very well happen here.
So, stay locked in in a circle.
Whereas, coming from the ground, I really break their spirit, and that's what coming called pretty much do best.
Yeah, and the pressure is starting to really go in favor of KC now.
A lot more high aerial plays from KC Seattle coming up basically.
All the way close to the ceiling to try to drill that right beneath the cork.
Right inside the goal, Fasi and R5050, the demos have also came through the sweep throughs.
In a circle, the office of pressure that they did have, even at the beginning of this game, is dissipated.
Fasi up the ceiling, looking right down at Tone Tone.
It's just simply too much.
coming off proving in so many ways too good fit in a circle right now
Stunning from Vittira and Atto, what I love as well
I mean it's easy enough when you're born a lot but what I love as well is that Atto had full faith
that Vittira was going to make it through there was no worry about what if Vittira messes up his setup
he just won't, so I will be there because he is going to get his ceiling reset it will be perfect
almost a chance
through the circle I'm not quite able to do it
was that it?
There it is! Oh that is!
Charlie!
Hey!
There we go.
I think I had a crazy save about 10 seconds prior to this.
And this one almost went bad.
What was the post to post?
That was almost bad.
Listen, they got a consolation goal.
Why can't you call a consolation just yet?
54 seconds.
See what they can do off the kickoff right here.
Well, I mean, yeah, you can certainly build momentum, right?
And that could have an effect.
game number five if they get maybe one goal more and get the last two goals in this game so you're
still fighting for something here even though you're going to be through and out of the series
even though it's looking like you know your opponents and steps up to that next level but maybe you
can't reach game is over but you can still get yourself some goals you know so keep on going in
a circle tell me what will be well aware of this they will know the the core aspects of momentum
in a series of rock and lees let me try to make sure this doesn't happen um in a circle and there
whether it's weeks that you'd make for them,
like it's the big part coming called getting better.
But that doesn't mean that in a circle, can't react.
It is hard.
It's hard.
I mean, I think they got to really have to capitalize
on their chances when they get the ball by one
or even two of KC, they have those.
If they've had them in every single game,
maybe not as much a game number three,
but even up again, this game,
had multiple chances only on,
where as in a circle, in the corner timeout right here.
But they had multiple chances where Goss got the ball
by one or two and just nothing came out of it.
And then you only get so many of those against KC, man.
So you can't capitalize off of those.
KC, they're gonna get there, nine million.
And eventually they're gonna end up scoring five goals again.
And I don't know what five goals is.
Yes, a big A, it certainly did, it certainly did.
I mean, there were only nine shots in that game.
And that one felt dominant.
So the fact that game one, I keep popping back on this,
was an 11 to one shot ratio. I'm sort of quite sure what happened there. But yeah,
Innocent will have taken the tactical time out. I know. I know. Crazy, right?
Crazy. So we'll see how that goes. I've got to be talking to these two. And I think that,
again, the key thing I'm thinking of in a circle is to avoid these double and triple
commits. I also put a little bit like they get. I got the sense that they're giving
up somewhat. Their challenge has got a little bit lazy. You know, they weren't thinking
too much. One of the goals that can't be caught got this course coming in for a 50-50 aimed at his own goal
that ended up being, I would say, an own goal. You know, that's not a sort of decision you make
if you're mill-mill at the start of the series. So I do think they need a hard emotional reset.
Yep, they need a lock in. I see the coach handing the man to, he's doing a lot of yapping.
Love him. You know? Yeah, under the money we've hung out. He's very cool. He's, I mean, he's,
this is actually him talking not very much. I'm surprised at how little he's speaking.
I'm not sure what he's saying is valuable to his inner circle boys and I think I think what they need a little bit is a cheerleader because they'll be aware that you know chat is watching that there are have many thousands of people watching this right now as well and you can feel quite lonely in that regard right so being able to listen to him
to his inner circle boys and I think I think what they need a little bit is a cheerleader because they'll be aware that you know chat is watching that there
Have many thousands of people watching this right now as well, and you can feel quite lonely in that regard
Right so being able to listen to him and just sort of reset yourselves turn to your teammates and believe in each other will definitely help them
Yeah, I believe it will and maybe perhaps they could potentially slowed under game even more
They've been really aggressive and that has not worked out for them. So maybe they should
Reverse and try to deal with the KC pressure. I know that sounds a little crazy
But at this point down 3-1 not much to lose
As we're going on the map number five at Park Day by Rhee
Of course, we're on the road to Paris and this will be a major
Upset if somehow some way in her circle can one the next three games starts with this
And they win the next three take out KC
The road to Paris we get the water for the real market for a lot of these great organizations
I see a thing here to do it could call it a Paris major upset if you wanted to you know
if you were if you were that way inclined but it's a decent start here now for it a
circle of their pressure but juicy as a bunch of the bull tries to force that one
in and does as well and just when I say decent start
oh that was wrong it was where where is motion motion what is this rotation you see it with the ball
I think you can question all of them in that you can question the infield parts when there were
three coming cool defenders you can question gobs getting boost my left
and motions rotation as well so all three of them can look at themselves and
think okay let's do better next time we're very kind
you're a very kind man called that's why you did the big books
i'm calling out all of them you're already calling out what i'm three times
as big as you listen i get that technically just
correct motion that motion back on the ball
right here trying to make something happen inner circle they have to see the
first switch that's a little lazy from them close talk about all three a little
lazy but they do have opportunity very big whip from KT golf who looks for a demo
motion kind of expected way gives it by a juicy right here
but turn it down to be equal to whatever single time still some pressure right
here from inner circle starting to get a little bit of office of football maybe a
fake right here from motion leaving it for golf that's a course season coming
Josie, blaring out for Spatiero coming in hot!
In the circle, they're starting to really play with some pace.
Yeah, they are. I think they're playing a faster pace than they're used to in a comfortable way.
There's a few thumbs coming in, they're landing awkwardly, but it's sort of working.
They're trying to make this game and this series scrappy, and every now and then they take control of the ball,
like Gorsuch just there, and it can lock out the ballroom.
Ocean, he starts in that five-quarter on two productive, but he will be able to get himself some boost
some boost and the ball on the backboard. He thought I'd go for the Diaz, but the Tyra says no,
I'm not gonna have to. That's as far as Gorfs. So in a circle for the last 20 seconds or so,
have that control of this ball. Great win there from Gorfs as well. Good pace from him.
But Tyra from to then out of his own goal. And all of a sudden, Gorfs is isolated up against
the Tyra. Gorfs can't do anything. It's 2-0. But Tyra just knows exactly where to put that ball.
Ah man, that is end of it. And the Tyra won't be won, but it should never have been that easy for him.
No.
Gors got the ball past.
Motion was too far up and rotated back to the left mid-boost when he should have been
waiting for the Gors to beat and then fall for a shot to back where it was clean, about
to do a jump.
And then it just leads to Batirgin, the 50-50 on motion and at that point all the way off
of the pressure.
The inner circle had to generate off of that, it would have been a good chance.
It just went away and once again, you get a PC to 1v1, it's not where you want to be.
I think coming called predictive this onslaught they they predicted that in a circle with a China the pace and their
Country it perfectly. They just wait a minute. I don't know them to the ball. However, you do start to touch it
I'm not it's in a circle right back in it
Sure does right here boys have been playing pretty good again the ball right by the defense juicy died zero boost
That's the case the aggression those you can't say it's uncharacteristic
And boys just gets the better of them this time
Right at the halfway mark of the game in a circle
have to lead a casey to have an opportunity right here and I'm good play from
goss let's see what motion has off the ceiling looking for one more material
washers of the whole way through says I'm not going to suck right now to bring
a lot with Sarah boost as well that's trying to sell us the full the whole
point's motion what's going to go to has to finish it's too safe it's too
central I'm coming called can counter boss does have the foot that bottom left
So I believe that was Borser winning Chase for the demo.
Oh, that's how he's got to get some contact as well.
The ideas are in a circle.
They're there.
The execution has to be that much better.
And when I say that much, I'm not meaning that much.
It's just a little bit.
But they got a point to the Tarah Drupals.
How is this going to happen?
This is deja vu.
The Tarah Drupals right down the pike.
It is bouncing right off the way.
They will play for Tarah.
It was juicy clearing the way forward as well.
got a huge general in that far corner and suddenly Vitero had a clear path between himself and the goal
They think so much more simple thing
There's a lot of work to do and that's 3-1 and will that be in a circles flight snuff?
Will they get one more goal for themselves?
Not quite so to say but I guess the blick reset nearly gets it in the goal makes the saves
That was absolutely disgusting right there for Vitero. Pretty good that's how I just knew he was going to get the reset as well
Left didn't have as much power as he wanted.
Good idea right here for Man of the Circle.
Back with Golf, but Atto just reads it the whole way through.
Choose to get some demo.
Slows down the Inner Circle pressure.
Atto gets a demo on Force. Now it's just going to be two.
Golf keeps the ball in, but Vaterra...
He's already scored twice off in Triple.
He's looking for another one. This time, tops it by motion.
Looking for the E-bar on Golf.
Isn't there, Atto?
That was an incredible play out there for the Vaterra Bumble.
Dang, get the save, and he does just well.
In the Man of the Left, Cole.
In a circle down by two.
Yeah, Carmen Corp can see that semi-finals against Ninjas and Pajamas in front of them.
He's going to make sure they don't do anything silly for this last 50 seconds.
In a circle to their credit, have played better in this game than they did in the last.
They've not thrown it all away, and they've kept on fighting to the finish line,
but Carmen Corp are still looking to have just a little bit too much for the Vatera in particular.
Seize up, Juicy!
And Vatera has been the difference.
He is so good. Yeah, I mean, he is the difference. He is the difference.
No, nobody can question that, it's just the way, he's just so composed.
I mean, here's the material that's been approved, this is going on here, fuck.
Yeah, it was from Kasey, wasn't it? So that was 2022?
Yeah, but they started, they were playing at 2020 more, so I'm going to count it as year five.
Yeah, well four and a half, four and a half, really late 2021.
Here's the difference in this play, used to be a defensive specialist, and now
he's just controlling the pace, he's just a captain, it really, it really is captain
in the France, in my estimation,
and it's great plays all around.
Throws it up to Juicy right here.
It looks like Casey's got a yet again.
Come on, we've got another W.
Fair circles credit, though, Cole.
I do think, oh, they might have lost 4-1,
but they had a lot of good chances in my estimation.
They have a lot of good tape to go look at.
Couple opportunities where they really
could have just been more clinical in utilize
for another little bit better.
The cry is more and more in this game, especially in the RubbleHunter series, really giving themselves a chance.
But of course, when you go up against KC, it is his win, it is his win, it's not coming from him.
So, the activity really there, I think there's many positives there in a certain take from this one,
but ultimately, when you're up against Karmine Corp, you better not miss when you have those opportunities,
and you better not overcommit, and Karmine Corp realized that there are going to be overcommits here,
there are going to be mistakes here, they didn't have to play up to their very best KC.
They've got themselves to another semi-finals and that gets them lower bracket monkey off their back as well because from here on in
Everybody only has one line Casey now on even footing looking to win yet another
EU open
It's not the hard way that they have managed to do so in a circle. They have to have positives from it
They don't take the passes from it. Um, like I said, like the table look at don't know when we're going for you
I can't hear you
Okay, cool. I mean, I'm not having anything either. So we can we just carry on chatting for now
Call me called looking like a potential team that could win we've got about 25 seconds
When the terminal force yeah, I mean, that's never a question. They just have to be consistent
And I do think that Adam would sort of game the tour especially slowing the game down the phone case
It is getting there a five
Zipperly respect well
Well, let's see if they'll be able to keep on building it
and put themselves into a semi-final routine
by a quick ninja pajama server.
For then, gonna be Synergy versus Manchester City.
Oh, now this guy's going that way.
Now I'm getting the lay of the land.
Valets can be a big test for a young homeowner
turning into their parents.
There's an overflow lot somewhere in the vicinity.
If the garage is full, they go to the auxiliary.
He said if the garage is full, they go to the overflow line.
I heard him.
I was right here.
Let's just stand quietly.
I bet you guys have driven some great cars, huh?
Progressive can't protect you from becoming your parents.
But we can protect your home and auto when you bundle with us.
I think you might have brought the wrong car.
We had the red convertible.
My
Welcome back in the rocking league
Championship series as we had it back to a bit of normalcy. Unfortunately inner circle could not shut down
the game. And I'm glad you
know, they're going to be
going to the K Corp. Cole is
right though. They got a game,
but the inevitability is the
blue wall and they're heading
towards the grand finals. I'm
leave. We have base and Cole
with me now, Cole. Moment of
glow here because you did call,
I believe. A game for for
inner circle. They just had
something about them. You know,
they just felt right. They're
in a circle. We're going to
get something sadly. Similarly
to yesterday against scene
vitality. They sort of went up
here. They're a bruised. The
that we didn't saw the day of this week.
Yeah, I think that's a teammates.
We want good games on championship Sunday.
We want to see these teams doing well,
but it is also nice to be like,
ah, okay, K-Corp's still there.
Yeah, I mean, yeah.
I'm starting to really question the European depth
that I always hear about.
Not saying that the players aren't bad.
Maybe these other teams are just that great.
North America last week, it was a lot of game service.
It's a lot of excitement.
Maybe that's not the best Rock League,
but the game, the matches do go to distance.
go to distance. Insane though, I do think the Ender Circle, they played pretty solid.
They had great ideas. They had great moments. They had to clean up a couple things, especially
on the rotational side of the ball, where people like motion need to come back down
the, down the, the boost pad, the small pad line better than the big boost. Simple, simple
errors like that. They really come across them, but KC though, that's too great. They move
on yet again. Top four again. And Sierra looking for yet another win. Again, it's just what
Yeah, I think that, um, coming up realize those mistakes were happening, you know, they
they sense those errors and they they punish them pretty ruthlessly. That was aside from,
you know, that the moments of mechanical quality, that was the main difference between the two
of them. Can't be caught. Oh, for some reason, they're rotating. Why? Let's just shoot. You
know, it's here, but oh, they over committed there and now I've got a chance to flick it.
I'll do it straight away. You know, so combining punishment with those instincts of what to do
and when the tear in particular, the key difference between those two teams.
the blue wall moving on forward as expected here inner circle. We'll have to try again
in the next open, which again, I think this was a great performance for them. You start
hitting these these big dogs at this point in the bracket. So kind of expected maybe
to get around here. And I think they still have to be to be happy with what they showed
us here today. But we do have to continue on. We have a few more matches to get to four.
In fact, three, before we get to the grand final,
so let's start talking about the next one here.
Synergy is facing down Manchester City.
Man City, I think, is the big talks right now.
It's bringing Seiko in at T-Bates.
He's been in a star right now.
He's been looking so good.
I mean, he looked good on GK, and that's
what gave everybody a head scratch.
Why'd they let him go?
It couldn't have been on the field level played
that dictated why Seiko would let go for whatever reason.
But he did.
And now, the simple Seiko trade has happened.
GK is crashing her head trying to figure out what we got new going on open number five
Man said he's still here. They've been playing pretty well the whole entire squad honestly
And it's on the synergy squad who call you me on the cash yesterday were taught my word replacements
1717 1717
Yeah, exactly, and then suddenly you threw and you're in this top
Six but that only gets harder only gets more difficult and that is that is where they're right now watching the frame going
Okay, I think
I'll let you have your moment.
He's a young cat.
Y'all can participate in that, but once again, I'm not doing it.
I'm never saying the number that comes after six.
I said it in the last cast, annoyingly.
Yeah, yeah. That's why Twitch chat also very much noticed.
That's why I quickly added ore after to make it less of a translation understand.
But, yeah, no one's wearing a very striped T-manchester city topic fan of that one.
I like the way Man City play
rock. I think that now they've
got, as I said in the pre show
that that sort of habit of
losing in deciding series of
their back. They finally won
one. They know what it feels to
do, so they know they can do so
that will steer them in really
good stead. I think that
actually probably firm
favorites here, but there's
definitely a chance if the
synergy to take this one, some
of the teams that synergy of
beaten so far, you know they
beat calming Corp on Friday in
but that shows they've got something about them and that was a game for the overtime as well.
Well Chad, we need to know. Cole said that Man City should be the firm favorites here.
Progressive fan votes up. Let us know if they are. If that's what you guys are thinking.
We'll tell you that up in just a moment here because I will have to decide. I guess firm is,
I guess that is the word, not like definitive, but like it's it's strongly there.
I'd say firms in that 70%, I'd still agree with that too.
Because I feel like this squad's looking so good, we just talked about sick, oh great they're looking.
For Synergy, this is probably one of their best chances to be able to get into the semifinals,
considering some of the other rosters, feeling right now.
But T-Bits, do you feel like this is a firm favorite for Man City?
100%.
Okay, not even 60, not even 70, 100%.
Oh, is Farm 100%?
Yeah, it's 100% like the majesty with this one because that would be crazy leaf. He's saying it's a hundred percent firm
60% I get it
It's one of those
Bates is going man city, how about you go?
I'm going man cities. Oh, yeah, my my upset radar isn't going up right now. So I'll go man. See I'll say 40
Yeah, I'm believing in this. I think they won the man city won the roster trade
That's for sure when it came to, I'm hoping,
I really hope to see GK bounce back.
I want to see that squad do good.
We, I know it's definitely do good,
but right now, Seiko's the story,
and I think Man City's the story.
I think this is a semi-final for them.
Vitality obviously gonna be a hard matchup.
I think maybe that's where they'll meet their match,
but right now, I think over a team like Synergy,
they should have the answer.
And it's a firm favorite from Chad.
So for arm 60%.
Yeah, 68, let's keep it at 60.
No, OK.
That's good.
No.
Chat.
Whatever.
Tell them both for someone else, please.
Well done, Chat.
Let's get into the game.
You win here, OK?
Let's get into it.
We've got the match ready.
Man City and Synergy.
Leaving the desk speechless right now
as we go into another best of seven elimination.
Who's going to be facing down team Vitality?
Who cares?
They want to win this one right now.
Let's get into some rockery.
So Vitality, wait in the wings in that semi-final.
But who is going to be the magic city powering through with a MVP weekend so far from Seiko,
but they've got the unexpected synergy.
Having not met them in an event, I'm now through to champion Sunday Johnny, Game 1 brought
to you by Progressive.
Yeah, this is the big one.
This is how you can confirm that you are on the inside.
Looking at all those less fortunate teams who are not qualified for the major, at least
provisionally qualified as the top five on in Europe, but this is such a good opportunity for both these teams
You think that when you run into a top six match that you're facing against a team of gentle mates or
Another team that's coming off of a major. No this time two teams looking to make the major for the first time
But they go looking to go back to back individually
Really is a massive opportunity for both of these teams where they have avoided
it the the sort of the big sharks of the region yeah only matters if you can go and get the points
as Torino is going to leave it and the person who's trying to save the ball for has been demoed
this orientation back there from Seiko Ryze got a bit of time agey he has a potential passing
option but Ryze got the ceiling reset and can't get himself back down to block acrobe
yes i think i heard T-Base asking you yesterday when he was he didn't like Ryze did he
I don't know, it's like the...
None of us do, I don't think.
Yeah, what are you guys in chat thinking about?
Ryke and Rixie, we want to know what you think.
To write up there, we're casting the long view on between Rebsi and Rezzy.
That was fantastic, really enjoyed that one. Thanks for that, by the way, Johnny.
It's almost dull there as we did see the bump off the ball being detected by Synergy.
Even the resetting I lost it high as much that he takes turns killing the backports
and trying to get a piece of the ball like he does.
This is a good start for Synergy and that Doritos almost fits on through.
It's off the crossbar but yeah, the first half of this game is going away with Synergy.
Ooh, that's not very good at all. HG's on his way in.
But yeah, Manchester City have not found their own way to the other side of the field.
This kind of happened, you see, for moments against Kedop Corp.
Manchester City started that series off, it was all offence,
and then once Kedop Corp sort of gave each other some room,
the story was very, very different.
HB to Seiko, Seiko, Kenny had another highlight real play.
No, not this time around.
That's very well done there for him,
as soon as he didn't panic, realised they had some space.
Welcome to the field.
And what a team this, you know what a resurgence this could be for this team.
If they are able to keep this up, that's a good save across to be quick to react to that one.
Synergy continues to put the pressure on.
They really have to put a ton of pressure on this team as it both flashes across the field.
Oh my goodness!
The candles are just pouring in as to reel.
Takes away another one.
He's sweeping across the box looking for more.
It's almost like it's a new year already.
This fireworks all over the fields.
Right now nothing to celebrate for either team zero goals. All those explosions are good.
You want the gold explosion. AGG, bit of time. Size the power of all on. Over to Edgeby,
Manchester City. Looking to try and change momentum. I'll be too lefty-fair with those
challenges in the future as Seiko, first time shot. I was going to be just fine, deal with
it. Had a nice back pass. I'll give him that one. That's certainly better than some of
that we have seen over the past 24 hours.
That one's a bit more dangerous.
And then we're going to get away with it.
Yep, we have one backposter,
a macro that works well,
and then another one to reach,
and then it doesn't work well.
Beals look of our teammate
on the near post, well there.
There was none to be fired,
and that's that he opened the score in.
It's only their third shot in the game there.
There's over three minutes gone.
Synergy about seven.
No goes to show for it.
and now Akro, looking to go coast to coast. Reset, just decides to pop it, looking for the plier.
So Akro's got a bit of time, he's had a pre-jumping ride. Not for the first time we've seen Ry doing this recently.
He does love to just go for the full sense.
Brito looking to put right the earlier mistake.
Oh, there's HNG past one, Akro's up next. Can he find the in-go? Yes he can! It's Seiko! What a rotation!
That's really the danger.
And welcome there by Seiko.
AJD was making the whole squads for a moment there.
50th field dribble.
And here comes Seiko from this.
He's got a lot of boost work with here.
He's bumped off the ball and that gives it back to AJG.
Very interesting to see.
AJD's continued world tour.
Seiko's been around a bunch of regions now, of course.
Most of his success coming in the South America and North America.
Can he add Europe to that list?
Yeah, I was good watching him yesterday playing up against CRR who has been doing the same thing
over the past few years
Alright get to Dusted
Missed attempt for the pinch doesn't quite work here's Manchester City after
Weathering the early storm have looked a lot more comfortable past Torrito tried to fake the first play now
He's downfield potential passing option great cover rotation from macro. I guess to start again 30 seconds on the board
And I could have got some time
Acro, looking for HB.
Let's come back in towards Acro.
Back towards it to get Seiko involved,
but he's beaten to the punch as well.
This is good stuff out with Matse.
He's close out of the game, but the dust comes through.
Acro commits from second-man position.
Seiko, alone in the back, briefly does well
to get some part of the ball blocked
and the same does arrive in time.
The rotation's staying strong for Matse.
That's going to be a long birth.
is ready and waiting for it.
Awkward, it's difficult, he's done well.
Off the backboard, Dorito palms it to Rai.
Scoring it for the skim, gets a little bit on it.
AJ, Edgeby's on his way.
Just wants the 50, gets the 50, and the manches the city.
Take a 1-0 game, one victory.
That's a game that they kind of stole for the first half,
but then second half, they really did take over.
I think I mentioned the man that he scored there.
We only had the three shots synergy at that point in the game at seven for the rest of the game synergy only put up one more shot and was that?
It was a pretty close try at the end there where they had Seiko in an awkward position to try to do both on pass.
But synergy, not clinical at the start of the game, Man City were able to get one goal off of a Dorito mistake.
I do think it was mostly a three to mistake, but it's teammates buying him China double-committed positionally
to not be
Ready to follow up. What wasn't the worst touch of the world?
No, it's just a miscommunication. I feel one thing else. Okay, that's the you've got the wall come on
You don't know exactly what's behind you. You say backboard that that is a large area
Backboard could possibly be but Manchester City, which seems to be their norm
the game. It's just a
big match. It's just a
staining it. You know, game
three or four is where they
really start to usually cause
their own problems. So, I guess
they get to kill Corboo.
They did their own good stuff
to make it more difficult for
them. But my city just do have
this reputation of it's going
well until it isn't.
They were going great yesterday before the fate come back that Vitality attempted, K.DocCorp, they managed to get that in game 7.
Synergy could easily do the same thing. I think these teams are all kind of around about the same level if they can perform up to the expected level that we are used to seeing from these guys.
that means that synergy season
has been far for anything but
consistent down the. It's
been consistently bad, I suppose,
but this is their peak by a mile
there in terms of results, and
they'd love to go one step
further. Take off the pressure
from the next. It makes you still
have more to do when you finish
in the top six. You have to
fight off the other team who
finished in the top six. You
would be tied currently or a
city you came in as a paper so they didn't see it looked like the paper
yeah this also just puts you so far away as well from the chasing act you know we're looking
for a mate we've got two points we're looking towards gk we've got one you get this uh i believe
you come out of this tournament with a very least of eight points so that's a six point
different at least that's it a lot of rounds uh you'd have to play with so victory here would be
massive for both teams. Oh yes that's awkward. Oh he didn't believe he went for the block,
didn't believe that we were on the cards. It was actually good for Akron to cover that but
the other miss obviously was advantageous given the fact that it wasn't red. Here you come,
take your little place to work with. Gets them all over the top of the first challenge. Second one
does blind though here come synergy again off what defensive play by Akra
Leonard should tell from the bottom synergy up and really physical in both
games with the demos here's a little bump start coming in I'd say seem to be
ready for now lots of demos no goals to speak of just yet Seiko or you know we
can do it still got a flip I believe it he does it's all good for everybody
AJG, looking to try and counterattack.
So number two obvious, I'd like to see them try and take some 50s in those positions
because the outplay can go on for nine times out of 10.
Match sits on the other hand.
Happy to just fake the first opportunity now to Rito.
Off the demo, that's straight into the path off Seiko.
He's been dancing around everybody.
The reset straight into the path.
The challenge that went quite a while ago.
Acro sealing double blocked, close to sealing height. Synergy deflects multiple attempts from
Manchester City to pass the ball. Doritos on AJG briefly I'm sure about who's ball it was.
Doritos takes over. Seiko with the reset gandies. Played so unpredictably Seiko again getting
an opportunity for his team but Doritos unfortunately lands on it and advances wide. Now unfortunately
giving the ball backwards. Seiko into the middle by HP and that growth are both there for it.
It seems like they both had all the time in the world to wait and see what was going to happen.
There's somewhere that ball has gone across about something good tested.
Yeah, 3-2's got all the time. He's not got any of the boost however.
Sort of made a fiatical attempt towards the ball, but...
No contact. Seiko now trying to make it two. Two goals only. The amount goes so far.
How many of us have our first kiss? Manchester City. Just covering these opportunities very well.
Demo. At cross by himself. Choosing to go early so that way he's not demo-watching.
Yeah, back corner that one for Eta. That's not a nice spot.
Oh my, there's so many demos coming in at both ends.
Seiko with a chance, he does get it on target, but slowly.
Dorito clears it.
Only half clear though, the ball's still in the danger area,
and it's Seiko circling around, he's been making so many angles,
worked for his team, so many opportunities.
HB sitting deep on this one, doesn't want to commit too early.
Synergy are trying to put together a mid-air passing play.
The bump does land, but the ball's off target.
Seiko takes his time with the clear.
Manchester City just not panicking in those spots so many times that they have
realized that they've got some time to work with. I might get this. H.A.G.
We're gonna try and get it back down, back to the corner. Now we did see yesterday
actually it's Caleb Corp. Manchester City, do you have a bit of an occasional, you know,
going for the ground outplay and getting dunked? Alpha 54 especially, getting a lot
of those that resulting goals. They want to attack again.
So why is it going to leave it?
AJG will be the passing option.
They go early, they don't go nearly early enough.
Yes, it's not quite enough for Synergy.
You know, they're really getting very close with their
Inquibble knock passes.
All the ones have attempted having a try.
And this is going to be difficult to stop.
HP muscles in through.
There is pressure off the ball, and plenty of pressure on
the ball for a minute.
Yeah, I mean, three to immediately realize, oh, that's a
lot of cars over here.
And very few of them are actually on my team.
2-0, Synergy, with a Dorito,
that is kind of just doing everything at the moment.
If you have a look at this cobalt real quick,
482 points for Dorito, 64 for AJG, 58 for Rye.
I'll make that 60, 70 for AJG,
touches the ball, 72, he's touched the ball
another four times, he's said.
He is racking up the points now.
Yeah, AJG's got five saves, his team in total has five saves.
So you can do the math there.
He's gonna need to get another one.
He does. Make it double save your mental for Doritos.
He's got all the saves.
He's stealing all the points.
He's not leaving any for anyone else.
He's playing greets.
He's got seven saves.
He's got all seven.
Oh, HG, he's just reached the 100 mark.
30 seconds left here.
We need a goal.
They need something soon, because right now,
It's more likely a perfect sweep than it is to be any sort of real mounted challenge here from Syndergy.
We've got their best opportunity of the season for a big result.
And as we have Brazil the saves! 3 to 1, 3 to 7, Ryze got 1.
That's a... yeah, just no EGG needs to pick one up. We're not going to be able to win this one, it seems.
Unless, hold on, EGG's getting at the end of this one.
I would not be surprised to see a type right here from Synergy. You remain scoreless, two games in a row, 0-1, 0-2.
I can't let this one run away too much farther.
I know they're not attacking right now, I've got a few seconds, I can go for an outplay.
some's got a change the demos are landing that's the annoyance right now because they're landing and they don't mean anything
Yeah, they uh, I think the game plan is pretty clear from synergy. They want to be physical
They're trying for lots of demos. They're trying for a lots of variable but passes
but
Although they're getting close. I think they do need to do something else as well
They may be going for a few too many
Irritable Bump passes and it's very obvious to Manchester City
You know that's going to be the game plot
They've done a great job Manchester City have had
Honestly a very impressive defensive performance
Stopping Irritable Bump passes is very difficult
In fact it's often called the unsuppable play
If you Irritable Bump and your teammates up already
The defence have to commit to in perfect coordination
But yeah that's it, your show now is done
And it's up to synergy to trace something else
Did not cool time out. Yeah, that's how they're just they've seen zero goals in last 10 days and four, you know what?
Three they lost one they'll do us to know I think at least three nails here
Then say you know what guys we should probably call a time out. Oh, we are the step sweet
I think we can call that one.
We'll find out.
Manchester City looking comfortable right now.
Looking like they'll be their spot in the semi-finals against Team Vitality.
And now maybe the question about Manchester City is not necessarily about are they in these spots as...
Oh my goodness!
Acru, what a stop!
Make a defense get the man to say, here's the edge for the other way to the reset.
That was a good stop.
And so, the ball comes back, I say, Akuro, hold on.
Oh!
Off target, Akuro!
He had more of the goal to aim at than I think he realized.
Tried to go exactly far post.
Misses.
And the recovery said knock-up through inside.
That was just going to be a goal if it was in the inside of the post.
HGG realizes it's not really anything else on this, say, Co.
Trends of half a right.
First man challenges have certainly been an upside here
4 synergy. Second man though, that took a long time to come through. HBG off the wall.
Just gets the 50. HBG. That's when you know you got your third man rotation correct,
because usually those just go in. Oh, that's a back pass. HBG gets to the end of it.
The midair challenge did not work out well there. 4 synergy. Their burst has been stolen.
HBG is trying to keep the play as active as possible. That's just saying you're going for fast
Recycles the players try to keep their opponents as low as possible on the boost totals
HHG's the only one who's got any
It looks like being absolute, the man said he advanced down for now
They've got out for a second or so, aggro off to the side ceiling
Because of HB, doesn't need HB
Dorito gets rivet, adds another save to the tally
HHG looking for that first come, not going to get it
They get it, and Riot was already moving his way out of the rotation, just sell for the 100 boost steal.
Seiko, why didn't that punish them for that? Half the game now gone.
They're gonna pass out, and Edby's still just getting heat checks on occasion.
Hey, are you awake here? Where? You're gonna be needed.
And this is still scoreless, first synergy, and you know, I didn't know I expected that.
I thought they could definitely do something in offense, something against this Man City team.
We were a bit far from flawless this weekend, but so far the defense for Man City has been spectacular.
They've been softening absolutely everything. They've been frustrating synergy here.
Now gone, 13 minutes without a goal, lots of 50s back from Man City, landed in the lap of awaiting players.
Can you cut across?
Is HB just making sure that he doesn't get demoed?
The position here for Synergy.
I can take.
Immediately followed by Akra.
Pre-chumped from HB.
Straight into Rito. Nice passing play from them.
Let's just...
Where's that next step?
This might be it.
The whiff is a big boom, but...
HB's just fine.
Even when the mistakes come through,
nothing working out for Synergy.
still no no we're running out of time in this game and this is favorite for
men's you know they've been in the team who have prevailed in these circumstances
before and I do like the look of where they're playing the game just a little
bit more on circles team bump dead feet this is you get back there mate this is
my ball to go for it hasn't really done anything too bad for the men's that he
defense. Now the ball going mid just ends up being a given way of possession. Final
minute still no goals in game three. Burrito looking for some bumps. Just yeah where's
all of this? Manchester City every time they're in defense can just slow the game down. They
can't this time. As Akro not for the first time this game caught into action does very
well off the demo. Edgebeats. Although is it up? Gets bummed and Akro again for the
The third time! Keeps us at nil now!
Some phenomenal stops.
Great saves, great reeds in the overheads as well.
From Akro.
Sekiro going the other way, he's got no boost.
Now, he's got nobody's positions quite a lot where he's got no boost.
Just trying to use his nameplate aura to make a mistake.
Come through for the defense.
10 seconds to go.
Sekiro muscles it forward.
Akro's up for this.
He shoots low! Oh, it's perfect!
Bounce is underneath him where he jumped.
But we're just six seconds to go, they're taking the lead.
Yeah, right moves forward after the demo.
I realize it's far too late.
That third man isn't there anymore.
1-0, four goals overall to Manchester City.
And Synergy need their first in the next six seconds.
That's not the way to do it.
2-0.
Synergy have got the biggest mountain to climb.
And not for the first time this season, Johnny.
Manchester are going to game 4 looking for a perfect sleep.
A great read there.
Seiko saw the fake kickoff coming,
chips it to the backboard, scores the rebounds.
And will there be a consolation goal?
Can they get four and three games?
It's still in the lock, but nobody's on the right side of it.
I mean, surely they call a timeout,
not yet, it's a timeout synergy.
So I guess that answers the question.
How many games in a row does synergy have to
Be able to score before they call a tight night.
It turns out it's three top two as we thought it was expected.
Three games, no goals, tight night.
Now, I don't want to keep harping
on a very particular matchup that happened this season.
However, the last time we saw Manchester City,
three games to nothing up,
having not conceded a single goal, they lost that series.
They lost, yeah.
It's no, so maybe they can't happen twice if the Jets just cannot.
Surely not, the teams learned from that, they're going to say Coen the roster now,
there is, just not going to allow that to happen, but I mean, yeah Synergy have just like so flat,
their offense hasn't been good enough, simply, not sure if we're doing a credit to their defensive
part of that though, because I think they started off this year defending Airdrieble Bumps really,
really well and that probably through synergy a little bit they must have expected to get some goals
from some of the players that they created but I don't think synergy adapted quickly enough
and now even when they are getting chances it's just great saves from man city edge being the
start of the game accurate the end of the game it's just solid defense and synergy have not been
able to find a way through and seiko's too is using all of his boost downfield to make sure that he
can't possibly be blamed for third man. Smart.
By the way, so do you know something, Shogun?
I don't know anything. So tell me.
Did you know? No.
Raimon is is rise, a.k.a.
Rick's real name.
But I know I didn't know that.
I didn't know that.
I've learned a lot of these recently.
I've been trying to figure out what the X is in Yann's name.
Because I don't know. I don't know if that was.
I don't know. I don't know that's correct.
Yeah, and why an ex so I know like yann is his name and then yeah
The next two are also part of his actual name. I don't know what the last one is
I know if that's from
From his name, but yeah, I didn't know that so there you go. That's why I guess that's why
Should you should we get a petition for the rename to this is full name? It's powerful
American opens so
So, why not? It's the era of first name Rocket League.
Here we go. Synergy trying to emulate, trying to repeat what nobody did before them.
That's come back from three games down, scoreless against my city at win.
But let's just start small. We need to see first of all, just get a goal, because we haven't scored one.
Hit over three games.
I'm pretty honest, we have big performance here, this really could be the once a season
opportunity for Zinigy and it's slipping through their fingers, it's not going to slip
in through their fingers, they've got to catch it, it's already on the sweat down to the ground,
whoa!
They came from Edgeby, that's unlucky that's the one, that was not going in.
That's one real tech there from Edgeby, here he is looking for the double tap, oh he's
hit it too low, didn't have the right first touch, couldn't get back down to the ball
in time.
and shoots it into the ground, but HB's looking lively in game 4.
Max City are looking to just get this Sinnerty Squad out of the way with this.
Finish them off. Don't even give them any hope of a comeback.
Inside. Oh, HB's got a bit of time. That's ridiculous power from the position he was in.
3-2 didn't really have any chance of responding. Wow.
Wow.
Now, yeah, Seiko, I don't think I've seen Seiko play this calm.
I've seen him peak, but the fact that just the little things, well, just the foundational
rock-a-league, I don't think I've seen him beat this strong in every position.
Yeah, you just made that interval pass look silly.
Usually you're thinking, you know, okay, the other things you're interval passing, a 50-50
is great here.
No, Seiko just takes it all.
He's taking them all here.
Oh, the bike is.
Well, it's sneaky by Seiko by AJG.
Well, it's sneaky by Zeko, but he's still got it.
Yeah, I don't think he's doing that at nil-nil in this series, Zeko.
Ah, tried for it, just didn't quite have the angle.
It's a little bit easier when the ball is more dead onto the goal.
Oh, there's HG. Oh, we have the shooting angle and it's wiped out!
My goodness, nobody's signaled at the T-junction.
Even took it out from it, Zeko takes his time, goes under one,
He's almost got turned right! Spares them the blushes!
Now he spares them the leads!
Seiko is faking a ton, and that wouldn't work that time.
Seiko's getting fakie, but now they're gonna need to,
I think, play them all a little bit more,
because although these mind games work,
it's sometimes not resulting in goals just yet.
Once again though, it's the same story.
It's just no serious chances to score for Synergy, here's one then.
Surely.
There it is, it scores!
They've done it!
And it's a Dorito, slow-roll approach into a great shot.
Akro just completely sits down.
I think he's expecting that to actually boost on Dorito.
So Dorito having no option but to slow play, just destroys Akro,
who's posting a plenty of points in the first half of this game.
And there will be no perfect sweep.
Now, we stop focusing on other words, like game one,
then maybe reverse sweep.
And then, ah, who else from there?
Anything can happen.
Hey, well, it was just one of those situations where
Zerita would not have the boost,
maybe favorite of Ears entry, the other way.
Oh, good defense, that synergy now.
It's the image for straight investors,
say something at the last possible second
with all fights, Zerita really died over his dirt.
It was just able to get there inside.
Seiko's still on the wrist away though, now he's going to try and keep this in the middle.
Not the time she was looking for, it turns into somewhat of a backflash for Edgeby though.
Seiko taking his time, not that that's really much of a sentence in this series.
Acro on his leg.
Good challenge there from Ryuu, who has been the standout performer in this game.
Multiple clutch saves.
Just over the top though, that was a little bit risky from the defense as Edgeby forces the move.
Frito on the chase, just over a minute left here in game number four.
Edgeby powers it along, Saker has caught an awful lot of work to do.
Ceiling reset and Frito had to get rid of it.
And they knew something was coming in the backboard there to Ryo.
And the whole backboard covered.
Now, I crooked that seed field.
Saco had some more space for the wall play.
Here, Dibble says, far away as he can, but still the Ceiling challenge lines.
Synergy are giving Man City a taste of their own medicine.
3-0 now on the way. Oh my goodness, what a challenge from Ancro!
Still set at 26 points. I feel like he deserved at least 10 more for that.
Seiko, go wide.
3-0, nice to be out there and Edwin's got to take a little bit of time.
Let me set up the outplay. Brice sends first time around.
30 seconds. One goal to the better.
Oh well. Still far from the start and Ryzen an awkward spot.
No, no real follow-up there from Manchester City.
Yeah, it looked like Dorito got pumped back into
outplaying his teammate there, by saying he'll be there.
Now, here comes Zachary. He doesn't have a boost to get the last upset he wants it.
Final few seconds of the game, Edgeby getting involved.
Doritos goes side though. Oh, it's Spikes middle awkwardly.
IGG has to be careful. He is very careful.
Dicks of all. Billy under control.
Dorito just wants a 15. I want to keep that ball low,
but I already just reached the wall in time.
Doritos scoops it out, gets another 15.
it still stays alive.
AJG on the way.
It's the biggest goal to hit.
And Synergy have found it.
They've got a game. They've got a goal.
They've got a chance.
Well, you know, we said let's start small
and see if we can score a goal
and see if Synergy can get one goal.
They've done it and it's enough. One goal is all they needed.
In what has been
a series of
bind margins,
Synergy have closed down one of them
take it away. The first stop match is just these match points. Yeah, not really much
going on in that game for Mancey. They weren't able to do too much in defense because really
they didn't have to. And then the one time they had to make it a defensive stop, they couldn't.
And yeah, go like saves for synergy this time. See if you missed the story in the series,
it's go like saves for someone. Mostly Mancey, no synergy. Stealing the show.
Can anybody remind me what car Acro had because he's just left the lobby.
I'm curious what the placebo is.
Is it a new decal or is it going to be a new car entirely?
He did not have the best game there.
I think he posted 40 points across five minutes.
It was about 60.
It surely wasn't 40.
I think it was 40.
Really?
I knew it was at some point.
Yeah, not really much going on there.
Yeah, just couldn't really get involved.
But nobody for Man City.
I mean, they're still firmly in control of this one.
And even though Synergy had taken a game,
it wasn't like Synergy showed us anything in that game
that makes me think Man City should be at telewarning.
Unless, you know, a second game for Synergy
would be scary for Man City to go up against.
Yeah, the flashbacks would be happening at that point.
Yeah.
Well, Seiko wasn't there for that.
He doesn't know what that's like.
3 turn from this way, just get dusted to it, GG, pig old, 180 turn, and I've got a lot of time.
I think this seems really to make any use of low 50s, I'd say that's right, finally does.
It's dropping down awfully, 3 turn, oh what a pass, what a strike, what a goal!
What is happening with the most controlled series ever?
And then all of a sudden Synergy are synergizing in offense.
I mean, great plate to read with the pass and the bump.
He did everything there.
And now they're up by one again.
Of the wall.
Akro can keep going.
Is he going to go for the player?
Yes, he does, but he gets bumped into the ball.
That's the one risk of that play.
You've got to get some separation between your car and the ball.
As HGG is looking for Seiko, that bump in play is so much more efficient when you're doing it on a goalkeeper on the line
than as soon as you haven't done it in the midfield.
Number 50. First time shot, Ryze could be just fine.
Yeah, I'd like that defensive play there by Seiko just a moment ago.
Near the bump, let's come in so he dies into the net, does a circle and comes back out from that near-closed area.
Very difficult to demo a player with a used approach.
Seiko, should I get well?
Can't quite get the push from the ball he was after.
Burrito, takes out, trying to open the power shots.
Good challenges though from Akro, the ride might have been a first time shot, HB was not in a very good position.
Sort of psyched himself out.
90 seconds down here.
One goal to the better, the same scores we had last time.
AJG's gonna look for his opportunity, straightens the path for HB, gets his second block.
Second block, Akro-Karpov, the adumpt wasn't really tested.
H&G's changing HB here, HB staying alive.
Just long enough to get one clear on the ball, now he's taking it again.
Okay, might say you have to do something here.
This is now turning into their long stretch without scoring.
H&G's put one over the top. Akro's able to get back in time.
What has happened to that Man City offense?
the offense so here's some more of it.
Seiko on the ball, Akro off the field,
saves, Landon in the goal line, the story continues.
It's goal line saves for somebody,
and now there's somebody synoning.
My goodness, Dario said I got seven saves,
can someone help me in defense?
And Reiss said, absolutely, sure I can.
The last two games, he has been unbeatable on that goal line.
Now moves on in, let me try and answer the offensively.
Akro, all the way downfield, Dario's got a bit of time.
Acro just slams him over into the ceiling, Seiko, pass one,
gonna look for the block shot and Rai has it covered.
Tereo, he might get the necessary stuff as well.
They're all in the board when it comes to saves, NJJ's got two also.
Tereo has to be careful here, that is phenomenal stuff.
And he takes control, gets behind the ball, oh nice pass, Seiko,
and B, top shell, and for the first time in the series,
both teams have scored in the same game.
I didn't think we would see the day. What a pass.
And Edgeby taking absolutely no prisoners.
Powers the ball under the crossbar.
We're in unfamiliar territory now, everybody.
This could go anywhere.
Like this.
It is right up at Edgeby with the reset.
Low 50 midair.
It only goes to Derita though.
Back road doesn't want to cause too much chaos here.
It's like the ball hits off them and go backwards.
Oh my god, here comes the ball.
They didn't even believe in it.
You didn't even believe it.
I was sure it was going to go in.
Oh, man, I really thought he was going to go there.
That's something they were doing so well in the group stage.
It's having a second man trusting each other
to get the ball middle.
He didn't even know how to play.
I was just trying to make up for it,
because that was the gimme.
Too low a boost for everybody.
Seiko gets past the first challenge.
Very low boost for everybody, AGG! He's got to get something on it!
Does exactly that, Akro tries to recycle the play, but is strengthened by the Rito, who I don't think he's ever cared if he's on low boosts.
AGG, the goal scorer. Over to Akro. That's not all that testing.
AGG, they have Rita's aim for instance, they're going to take it by himself. That's a bit dangerous though. Passing play out and much required competition.
Convertation.
The AGGs play some good defense.
I think they really are a skewing poke,
team skewing more towards defense today.
Showing that it might indeed, as expected,
be nervous given the circumstances,
the opportunity that both teams have
to seize its all-four spot.
And still have a chance to go even deeper in the start of it.
Will it be Man City?
Oh, it will!
The defense can make saves in those positions.
What on earth happened here?
Hey Genji, I think you just got pushed away a little bit from your earlier bumper temps.
And it was just enough!
I mean, he must have not known that it was going to be a single part before he knew.
He was already crept too far forward.
That is a disaster.
In what has been a game full of spectacular saves, a series full of defensive masterclasses.
We have had a horrific plunder that could end it all.
Of the wall, zero boost for Rice, who's gonna leave it for Dorito over for HNG.
Unchallenged, that's asking a lot for himself, and he couldn't quite do it.
Looking for little bugs, HB avoids the first one, and there's nobody on that side of the field,
there's nobody in the goal, and there's no one to stop Manch as a City from making it to the semi-finals.
Yeah, that's game. One second, not enough time, even if Synergy completely left the ball.
for a rather man city left the ball let synergy shoot it the game would end so it is gonna end
in the worst way possible man city advance for one but wow you thought the series is going to be
remembered if it was remembered for the defense being good at both ends but the last play that
that decides it all is a complete whip.
Even if, even if he was in the wrong position, of course,
he didn't realize it was gonna be his fault.
Even then, though, he should have had to save.
It looked simple, easily, for a player in this caliber.
That's shame, shame to see that be the deciding factor.
Nothing said, man, Sissy, they don't care.
They don't care.
And they're gonna run into the semi-final
and see if they can go even further.
And with that as well,
they have now overtaken GKE Sports
for the overall season by one point.
So they're in the main running for Paris,
they're now in the main running for Worlds.
They are looking fantastic.
After the break, we've got clubbing corp
against Ninjas and Pajamas.
Hey, the plumber's fixing that burst pipe.
It should be all set.
Good thing you protected 24-7
with your home and auto bundle from Progressive.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I'm just trying to figure out
the right caption to post about this.
Maybe something like,
I have protection, just need a lifeguard.
What about that emoji with a shocked face?
Or maybe flooded with emotion.
That's too much.
I'm trying to, Tuesdays are crazy.
You know, technically, you don't have to post everything that happens online.
I don't believe you. Life is meaningless with that appellation, am I right?
Every day, Michelin innovates to move the world forward on the road and far beyond.
Michelin, motion for life.
because this was an elimination and it was Manchester City pulling out over synergy and
a kind of quick chat about it. We got Noah coach from Manchester City on, on the line
here. Noah, congratulations on the one you look exhausted after that. Like, like you're
okay.
You did it. You were just like, you're just maybe that's the word I'm looking for.
Yeah. Maybe a bit, a bit more relief. I mean, obviously I didn't say this, but maybe a bit
a few flashbacks to the Novo
series after going for a perfect
suit. Then Ben is the next one.
But we we saw out this time. I
mean, that's sort of the
difference that you know, a
player like Seiko can make on
your team with the game seven
yesterday as well. So yeah, I'm
just happy to kind of get it done
and get it done in five rather
than it going to seven and
having to come into carry on
playing. Yeah, well, coming into
this, I mean, you'll look at the
context of the season so far
and then coming into this
weekend, did the player
expectations change a little
expectations changed a little bit when they saw, okay, Seiko's working. The team is working.
We're looking good right now. Did you see any like shifts in the players, maybe mood
or attitude after they started playing and looking good?
I think he just, I mean, he's a winner, right? So he just brings that energy to the team.
And I've definitely noticed the background energy of kind of, and even myself have improved
and sort of bounced well off of that. Yeah, I mean, we just, we've just gotten better
mentally I think I think and he's thought it in really well with with how we want to play so it's kind of been again
I don't want to speak too soon about it, but it's it's been you know, relatively simple so far
Yeah, hey, well, it's definitely not gonna be simple going forward. No, we look at the next opponent still
It gets only harder and harder a shape each of Sunday goes on
But I want to pull up the points real quick if we got them just to mention
I'm sure you're you're well aware to looking at the season overall, you know
GK not in this way. You guys have passed them now. Um, is that something you've like kind
of clicked in like, Oh wait, we're in, we're in the running now. We're doing this. Yeah.
Um, it's a good feeling, especially because they were the major and we weren't. So it's
nice to kind of, you know, not need that extra tournament to catch up. But with a team like
EK, it's, it's a one off performance. I don't see, I don't see this happening again. I mean,
last week they got top 12 and then got a second. So they're not out of the major race yet.
We're not rying any team off.
We're just kind of looking at ourselves.
Obviously it's great that we've kind of capitalized
on this opportunity, but we need to keep on rolling,
keep on capitalizing because, you know,
we could just slip up and, you know,
they can jump right back up the standings.
Can I, obviously, you're looking for a win
against Team Vitality.
That's, it's no question, that's an obvious answer here.
But, I mean, like, can the players
and you guys still walk away happy
with maybe a certain level of result.
Like, okay, it's got to go to game seven or
if we can take a few games or whatever it is.
Is there like a minimum that you guys
could walk away happy with?
I mean, a loss is a loss at the end of the day.
I just want to play confident.
I want us to kind of play our style
and just see how it goes really.
I'm confident that we can win.
Obviously we took them to five in groups.
and I think that overtime could have gone either way.
So, I mean, I don't really have much expectation for where
I'm just going to go in, try and, you know,
hype the boys up, get them confident,
and, again, we'll just take it game by game,
see where it goes from there.
Well, it sounds like you guys have a working system right now.
You're all learning new things,
and it's showing on the field.
So, I just got to say one more time, congratulations,
and hopefully that can carry through
you guys in the rest of this tournament.
Thank you very much.
There is a no again I had but they realize and I feel like I saw the relief
I think that was the word I was looking for but can't one more down
We're gonna keep moving forward here, but they do have to keep looking up though
They can't relax yet because team vitality guys is waiting for them out for this
Listen ain't no relief until you until you make Paris. So I don't think he's gonna be
Nestle ass comfortable as you think he's gonna think you should be a leaf
He's got a lot of work to do.
I'll tell you this, if they do well in this next set,
going against a Vitality rematch from Friday,
if they can close the deal, make it to the grand final,
potentially win that one.
They'll be in a great spot.
I think right now, with Team Vitality in front of them,
they, I think that's probably something
they're probably going to be excited for now.
I mean, give me a fact that they can win a show,
they're going to match against synergy like this,
like, you know, overly confident.
They should be happy going on that show.
I mean, I think you'd be very
happy because they've solved,
you know, got rid of those
demons. We've already overspoken
that length about Nova. We've
also spoken about their inability
to win game fives and game
sevens. They've done both of
those throughout this week. So
they don't have to worry about
that anymore. They've also pretty
much, you know, fully cemented
themselves as, all right, it's
not a top three is a top four.
We are that fourth team. It's
they don't have to look behind
them anymore. This is all about
what can they gain from this
position and they can start
punching up. I want to ask you
we're going to move on to the
next teams here. We just
talked to Noah and he said
that yeah, like GK is good.
They're going to be back like
this is a one off thing for
that for that squad. Looking at
man city. Okay, maybe this will
be good answer then looking at
Man City and GK where where are
we going to maybe like? Are we
power ranking one above the
other now? Obviously one still
here in the other's not or do
we feel like maybe she'll be
there on the same plate where
we mean for GK they've had one
top six this season and that was
This isn't the out of having this is the worst than usual, but they need another one those big performances at this point
And it's gonna have to be you know second door or maybe even a first cuz you know
Johnny's right there as well and it could be a case of all right top four is is kind of locked off
Who's getting that final spot?
base you falling off on gk2 or
Am I falling off a gk? No
Yeah
They're not going to need more of that, mate.
Then we're going to do a lot more of that.
They're going to get top 20, one-way parry,
but the jury's still out.
There's no verdict.
There's no verdict here yet.
I don't know.
The jury's mumbling, mate.
They're convening.
They're not to deliberate in the back.
No, get them out.
Get them back out.
Get them back out of here.
Got a more case to present.
Get them back out of here.
Yeah, well, they'll have to try and get a little bay here,
because, again, we're moving on to a different match here.
We got only three more best of sevens ago in this open man city is moving on of course against vitality later
But right now it's car main court the blue wall
Looking down the eyes of ninjas in pajamas. Of course the blue wall generally comes into a series looking like favorites
They've been slow to start but powering up over the weekend fates now ninjas and pajamas are here doing what they do making the top
Four but now a real challenge stands in front of them. Yep
Ever since we got to the main event, this will be the second time that KC's played a squad that was represented at the Major.
They played General Mates back in a little bracket semi-final on Friday.
One down on the end game, number five after that. It's been a little bit of an easier role for KC.
Now going against the NIP squad, he's been playing well man. I mean they haven't played necessarily
anybody too great, no major teams just yet. So this is NIP's big step for them too, and I think
I think looking at the NIP squad, we were just talking about the points and GK not being here.
Gentleman's not being here as well. We didn't talk about that.
But for NIP, I think this match-up means more to them than to KC.
Getting to the grand final, getting those 12 guaranteed points with the potential for 18
is a big deal when we're talking about the overall road to Paris.
Yeah, talking about NIP's run so fast. They beat Caligaris, they beat K-Drop-Corp, and they beat Inner Circle.
you're going to get a lot more
difficult. You're going to
get a lot more difficult. All
of those you would turn around
say, Yeah, you really should be
winning those ones. That's
awesome. Not necessarily been
the case for all the teams this
week. So going and getting the
job done that you're supposed to
do a kind of give that too too
much. But this is where things
get a lot more difficult. A
coming up. Okay. Oh my goodness.
It's already going to start
fraying off. Did have that
shock loss against synergy over
on Friday, but ever since
then, they are on the war path
games with four or five goals and I'd be on the next team in the process. Yeah. I mean
I don't anyone that's here deserves to be here. But I also want to say that not just
as a for ninjas and pajamas a proven point to get to the grand finals. I mean it's to
show that our our wins are not like fake wins. We got these wins. We're going to do it again
against K court like that. If if they fail miserably here then you might look at the run
Maybe like, okay, do we talk about them?
Maybe, you know, me trying to put them in higher up in that top eight power ranking was a bad call.
This is a big, a big proven point on that in, in, in my opinion too.
Not that they care about our opinions, but maybe they care about chat's opinion.
What do you guys say for the progressive fan vote?
Hashtag KC, hashtag NIP.
Okay, I'm going right now.
Can you just in pajamas do this?
Can they get to the grand finals or is KC an inevitability?
I'm, uh, I know where I'm leaning on this still, even though shocker though.
I think it's a good match up here.
Was that bait?
Shocker.
I honestly still didn't even hear you.
My parlours were going off,
or my ears are dead.
You know, get it out of here
over with you guys and call.
I want to get you two in a 2v2 team
and just seeing if you can even get a kickoff going together.
That would be fantastic.
I can't leave not hearing anything.
Did you hear me? I said shocker.
Oh, shocker. Okay, okay, okay.
What, why are you saying shocker?
I'm picking KC.
Why are you saying that's the obvious one?
It's like
Casey I'm gonna Casey. Oh, you pick it TV. I'll be picking Carmine corpus. Well, yeah, it's simply too good
But you were just saying I think already know where I'm going everybody in the world knows we're going late
And there's no you know because you're not gonna go against cake or you're not going against the blue water
I guess I'm plenty of time you can't even use this as one of the examples of me picking up a you know
Because you got to pick the blue wall. You got to pick the blue wall chat. What do you do? What are you doing chat?
I showed he's small so it's a pick aside, but we're all the same side your way you
Crossed each other, so I thought I'd get my head out of the way if you vote
Yeah, no, this is fire. This is this is one that that has to be a
a pick here. I mean you expect KC and the Grand Finals, they're just so solid.
They're looking better and better. Vittura has been heating up throughout this entire
tournament so far so I expect that to continue on here. Ninjas and Pajamas are
going to see a real challenge now and I just don't think they'll be able to overcome it.
We'll find out in this next Festa 7. Someone's going to the Grand Finals.
Is Ninjas and Pajamas going to be able to prove they can do it? They can take down
the big guys or is Casey gonna make there another time.
It's single and the big boys play as carding card to build again.
And this time NIP on the other side.
But what kind of energy are we going to get in game one?
I think it was going to tell us what kind of energy we're in
store for for the whole series game one brought to you by Progressive.
Let's find out.
Yeah, I agree with you that Johnny.
And in the fact that coming before he played today, that looks good today.
Vincent pajamas coming into this one call they'll have to very quickly get used to the pace of calming cool
But then these teams that have played before these are a matchup that we've experienced
And we're also having Vincent pajamas Johnny having a little bit of a surges looking at themselves again in recent days and weeks. Oh
Well, just a gentle ceiling pitch there from juicy test to the waters
Let's see
His Jari is looking with the aerial max. That was pretty good, but no more work needed to see our consult the
Pre-telegraph pass from CRR to holy the ones that said oh, there's he's not got the touchy ones in there. It's all
So, you know early doors
NIP
I'm looking they're looking okay
Now they're going keep it stick when if you look at the results, but they have been a bit iffy for me this season
I don't trust them personally gonna be a trust in cold
So far, this is a more trustworthy looking performance.
Yeah, that was a big discussion that we had yesterday.
Was it the pre-share or was it before one of the matches?
Can't quite remember.
We were saying, do you trust this Ningsun Pajamas squad?
And I think I trust him, me inconsistent and always will,
as only puts him on his trademark 50-50s to get Ningsun Pajamas back on the line.
Earlier plays had huge upsurge in his results over the last, probably a year or so now.
now. He's turned from a sort of regular top 16 player into a real quality semi-final finalist.
Perhaps even further as well. Jorrius, Advertiser again onto the centre, it falls too early,
gets through the double tap, they go high, but so far I'd say that it's been into the
jammers that have had more looks on goal. Definitely, I think they've been, they've been
putting some good shots forward, some good ideas. They will be going to actually score an
No, they will with all your play like that. What a shot that is.
I was thinking you might try and hand this one off for the Narrow Nibblebump.
We've seen a lot of those today, but he just goes for the reset.
What were they up to, Jussie?
That's it, right? And gets it left.
The angles that he comes in up there were fantastic from Oli.
He's done a little bit of boost as well.
I don't think he had 100 on the tank at the start. I think he was at about 80.
And still managed to get it from end to end with the angled reset.
So, very impressive there from the Dutchman.
And into the pajamas, get a deserved lead in game one.
I was saying, you know, they're coming into this one called compared to Karmine Corp, you would not know that from the opening couple of minutes
Yeah, they look they look more than fine
Casey have been did a pretty good job getting bloodies by the ball and defense when he did
Nice car rotation there from Charlie is CRR follows up this touch quickly as well
And here comes Oli look for this second goal the game flicks into the crossbar
CRR pull-up is good and it's 2-0 NIP
Yeah, what a start, misses from into the pyjamas utter dominance Karmine Corp, barely laying a glove, that's over gets
Oh, flick right over him and CRR was following us only.
The difference maker between the two teams.
Isn't it big Dutchman, Oli?
He's getting the 50-50s.
He's showing the mechs.
And he's also teeing up his teammates.
I'd say normally CRR is the defining factor for me
for injured in the pyjamas.
If his bumps work, if his chasing works,
but right now it's the only show.
I took a chase out, there goes a bump, and CRR,
the player I was mentioning, does get the save.
Yeah, he was good.
A bit of an educational moment as well there for Oli.
If you're going to miss a flick in twos or threes,
you want to hedge high.
you want to miss it high you want to miss the flicker mess up by looking at too low
because precisely the fact you've got teammate oh oh I see that there that's
into the crossbar again Sierra all right to the post Bob does a lot now
Vaterra going one be one the other way but he's not able to get past Jory this is
good for plenty of experience of course defending one be one positions in his
career yeah I mean yes but Vaterra had all the pace there he had the ball
completely under his spell that was a really tough moment for him somebody of
the quality of the juries and he made them look very simple and that is partly credit
to him and partly maybe a bit of a slide towards Vitero who should have done better there but
Carmichael will keep on coming they had taken some joy from that chance having the ball
on one of their roofs and the chance I should do something with it as Vitero tries to have
this teammate but quite happily again for Carmichael. Pato gets the pinch, they see needing
something soon Johnny it's beginning to look like it's just not going to be their game.
Yeah it's been all these games really you said earlier he's one of the most improved players
over the past couple of years. I absolutely agree with that. I think his rise has been amazing to
watch. You usually expect it to be a young player coming out of the corner. Oh, that's the wrong
way CRR. He was trying to get back in half, but it's actually helps Carbinko.
Oh, so unfortunate, but when you're speeding, it's the ball from the hangar. It's one of those
things that can happen. We need own goal stats. We do need somebody to track those happy routes.
We need some traction to point
so some cases as well. Oh, the
kickoff strap. Everybody picked
initially Casey with one serious
act that accordingly. That is
amazing. Juicy gets the demo as
well. What a decision for the
Terran to go to the one two of
Ato after that chaos. They
really under their control.
You can see the kickoff goal. It doesn't get much worse than that.
Here comes the arrow there. He fires it right back.
Well, that's going to make you feel a bit better about the own goal earlier.
This time, it's never going to kick off right.
Casey, we're trying to back right that.
But, um, NIP have murdered them.
When you murder the kickoff, they very often stay central
for the close shooting player.
Fair play, Ninja the Pajama. So easy to tilt and wilt
after conceding those two goals.
They did not do so.
William Vitira. Vitira gets a clean touch, but C.R.R. is there again.
He's starting to get a lot more involved now, is this, Maniac?
Jorias waits on the side.
Only 110 points for Haley. He's been fairly quiet.
Vitira into the centre, and Charles Lough for KC to equalise yet again.
They've already got two goals back, and they get the third.
Vitira goes for the bumps.
Got to be that huge boost steal. It's the real chance for KC.
C.R.R. has to get the touch. Doesn't. Vitira catches.
What does he do with it? It doesn't matter, because only...
descends from the heaven and slaps it for the side.
And so, Juicy comes in.
And he's like, can he get the ball?
No, he can't!
And somehow KC too will get home.
On Juicy, Tyton is arrival so well on the challenge,
but he could actually score the ball
and tip it away from that one.
Still worked out as part of a fake and an eventual goal
for KC by explosive kickoff strats.
Half resulted in quick goals in several occasions.
This time it is just going to be that great possession
for Karmicorps.
After goals, goals, goals in game one,
This has got a 10 minute overtime all over it, but we'll see.
Still 30 seconds away from that happening.
Well, either team will be able to steal that opportunity away from all of us.
There's only, he goes high.
More great 50-50 play from him for Tira who waits.
I think Ray wants to put this ball.
He's got his eyes on that boost, but has to go around it.
Eventually does get bumped near it.
I don't think he got it in the end.
I know he did, so he's pretty good there for boost.
That's all in front of him.
Tira goes high.
A few seconds away from the overtime.
Only gets the catch.
Juicy to the side.
It looks, Johnny, that we are going to have the nervy OT for game one.
Or are we? But let's see here, we're going to watch it all forward.
Oh, no, it's open the other way!
NIP have your shot! And it's 4-3, NIP!
The counterattack in the demo!
The great white snipes and clutches victory from the jaws of defeat.
Just what it seemed like KC had done enough to drag NIP into an overtime mire.
I don't think you can believe his luck there.
It's like, why is this free?
You know what? Score it.
Question it later.
Well, it deserved win, particularly for early this game.
But good stuff from NAD at the end there.
Counterattack goal in 0 seconds of the clock.
Karmicorp thought they were the ones who were pushing for their goal.
And they did not see the devil coming.
But yeah, goal one win for only 737 points.
And I think you might even play better than that
that because he had the solo play to keep things off with the foot free set.
He had to flick to set up the second goal and just so active.
We always play like this. This game looks world-class.
It's just so strong, isn't it? He's so solid, is only.
And then, I think that's the big difference that he's got over the last year.
He's earned those mechanics as well to really be a difference maker at this top level, you know,
to get a goal like the one he scored against.
I mean court is is very good and he's just he wasn't exactly what to do with the pool and Joe is
What's it gonna miss this one? And we might have a slight delay into game two. We'll see might be a few seconds late
But yeah, coming up the best post they could make is that they stayed in that first game
But ninja in pajamas deserved winners from it
absolutely and yeah only with that touch at the end to
To get the open net for Darius that was off from all these interceptions
So he's he's killed Casey's attack and he's passed about the joys of the same touch see or I think it was we've got the demo
So everybody involved in that last play really good stuff from them
Got a look out for the case you kick off so they did have some nice kickoffs in that game
We saw the the demo and the passing play
NIP did counter with one of the road though. It's a more subtle one
It sometimes looks like something's gone wrong, but it's a it's a counter strategy when Casey tried to get them all to go
their teammate in the back corner by losing the kickoff on purpose. If NIP can get a mirror to
touch, exactly the same touch on the other side, the ball doesn't move and you get the close to
possession. There's all sorts of strats and ideas at play here every time they go. The only set piece
in Rocket League, this one does full neutral but Inzlitha Jullis-Polway in the end. Seahawks huge
boost deal and Nipah got a real chance in this series of building on that opening game momentum.
any sign that they were going to be called coming into this one completely disappeared after a few
seconds and that's a bit it's up there from carly cool but they have I suppose they're
initially here on the bidding table and this is the nip we're hoping for oh vittira oh my goodness
so i'm the double tap in from a tight angle i thought that the goalie was going to match him
to this one but sorry is didn't actually have time to get up to it this vittira drills at it
I was an even better goal than I realized at the time.
One of those ones that the slow motion replay was a great service to,
to really show us the angles that Mathira just played with there,
and the creativity to even go for that wonderful stuff there.
The Frenchman, Mathira now has got the taste of blood.
He goes for more, juicy. Forget Solio, he stops on in the air.
CRO with that's over side him, and Calving Court,
you know, already a big step up from this game,
even though they made that two-goal comeback from last game to this game.
Yeah, it was a necessary pace from Matty as well, as it will be here, he doesn't get the stuff she's looking for, or the following touch, but I still will!
And it's cleared towards Juicy. Again, the speed that Vitero got that first touch in the backboard actually counter-joyous when it bounced into the near post position.
He thought he was going to have a chance of intercepting it, but got wrong to anticipate the power Vitero was coming at him with.
Juicy keeps it low to himself and CRR is the next player to be able to hit that
plateau, goes for something similar to what Matira went for earlier, that
bouncing follow-through but isn't quite able to connect, does though keep some
pressure for his team, Jury is. This is far as he can, Atto catches KC ability
of a real head of steam here in game two.
Boys, gonna be a second goal for Matira, he beats the third man dive.
Matira starting to take over, it was all he's game one, but now Matira
But this possesses the NIP attack, and dusts all these approach.
No one from NIP has got more than 100 points so far.
They've really struggled to get hold of the ball
and do anything with it when they do get it.
It's looking like one of those games where KC get the head of steam
and just keep on pressing forward and become slightly unplayable.
But into the Champions, they've got plenty of time to change up.
That Demo from Jorrius could be the beginning of that,
as he takes out Atoe, but it's another gone clear there
from Karmine Corp.
Finns of the Champions has been called for
cool heads here, they're sitting in this game.
And there's still a lot of time to work with
and they're still playing a very good series overall.
It's the NIP that we're excited to watch
when we saw what they could do early in the season.
We were hoping we'd see more of that,
see more of it again at some point.
We are now getting treated to it.
Will it be enough against the mighty Karmine Corp?
Woken up and they're not happy about that
first game one, going against them.
could complete their comeback as they were part of way to getting.
And there we are, part way through, exactly halfway through the game.
Silver goals for NIP.
Yeah, barely any shots for Iivety, really. Two shots for Vittira.
And that's all the calming Corp of Hat, three on the other side for NIP.
So not dominance in that sense.
Oh, wow.
It's not going to look more likely, especially with plays like that again
from Vittira pinching it down for Atto.
It wasn't quite a goal, but we're stretching on the names of the Champions defence.
So Atto will put this boost as well past CRR.
So CRR has to get himself back as quick as he can
because Joros has left him slightly stranded there.
Zero boost for CRR, but CRR decides to fake against him.
CRR can find no lead.
So once more, he needs to have a job
of showing good composure,
but can't be equal to proving you need a bit more
than that against them.
Yeah, they covered it mid really well.
These cuts of rotation from KSC,
stapling the counter attacks that NIP are attempting
and now Atto's going through,
masterfully puts them all in with the arrow
and the dodge at the end of it.
Oh, lovely touch. Beautiful stuff there from Atto.
Linking one touch for the next,
making this Ninja and Majama's offense
a very average there of those few plays.
You have a shake on the cams there from the tier.
Just getting yourself as much in the game
as you can possibly be.
Kami Koopa getting to look scary again.
The Minn Temples being kind to them.
They've got some really nice wins
and some good amount of goals here
in the last couple of days that we've seen on this map.
It seems to be a game too, as when Pacey really wake up.
Yeah, they are playing their game.
Not many teams historically have been able to stop Garvey Park from playing their game their way for the past three or four years.
It's been so long since they've been a team that does dictate the speed of playing.
Yeah, actual Vatira and, you know, it's fair of the poor with KC and now with extra Juicy joined in the ranks.
I mean, they're just very good at dictating where the game's going to be played and it's often in the other teams half.
As it continues to be, so Vatira gets himself into another blip reset, air dribble, almost
over the top of the IP again, they may are struggling so much with KC.
Sierra tries to get a dunk, it's not quite going to happen.
Wow.
Sierra licking all the play, like, these guys play Vatira a lot, right?
They're going to be thinking, okay, so Vatira, something's good to look, the group's going
to happen, but I get the sense that Vatira is surprising even then the way he's playing
in the second game.
Yeah, it's good, very fast to every ball, chance to play for NIP, but that's tonight
by Juicy.
We needed that one if they were going to get a realistic comeback at the end of the game.
You know, the times really get aeration of them.
Oh, actually a chance though.
So that's us there to save it.
And now really we are past the point where comeback is reasonably possible.
Not a good touch again, but Sierra complete supreme control.
Stand to the other end.
It's going to be a simple win for Carmine Corp in game number two.
Or Dominant, the ninja in the jumps was in game one.
One goal at the end would give Nip something to take into game three, but not quite to be, unless Jury is...
...the decision perfectly here now. It's going to be looking like it's going to be 3-0.
KC in game number two. What a performance, particularly from Vatera.
Yeah, absolutely. Take over in offense.
That's a... yeah, KC looking like KC.
That's always a scary thing to see in a jump Sunday in Europe.
So, with Karmigord looking like they're playing their game...
There haven't really been many teams that certainly you can match them and the other
favorite
Potentially to win this weekend mentality are the I think the team of the worst record against carbicorps
One carbicorps play like carbicorps, so they won't be too happy about seeing this joy is it would too happy there either
He also looks like he's empty. Don't have a hardware store in his bed
On the facecam I might get another look at it at some point
But yeah, they need to stop Karmicorps from having their way.
Just tinkering. That's what Jorah's been doing.
And I think the Ninja Lumberjumps get to tinker with their playstyle ideas here in this series going forward to game three.
Because game two got away with them pretty fast.
And a series can go away from you against Karmicorps just as quickly as we do head to map number three.
And hopefully this is where the series starts to set it out.
We've seen one team perform really well in mid. I mean Casey had a few moments
But in general it was much better than we saw Casey dominate game two
Yeah, you reach the double pig joyous these two players going
But he could just I think they turned away a bit too early
They made that a bit readable in my opinion
Yeah, you're sending two players like this is either a double kickoff a double kickoff or a fake like it was
And yeah, you just can't hit your ball against all of that.
And it's fine.
So, good read by Jorias and one meal already.
Yeah, basically a head start there, Fingering Pajamas.
And they make the most of it.
Juicy, he's up in the air and he's to get involved in this one.
He gets the focus of overall.
Great way to get involved.
It's C.R.R. and Jorias.
C.R.R. actually cools off Jorias.
C.R.R. is a little bit quiet over the last couple of games.
I expect him to be at the forefront of everything good
and bad at Fingering Pajamas do,
but I haven't noticed him too much so far.
Let's say that gets a lovely pre-jump there, and the Tyra misses again, the Tyra's a really awkward start here.
Was missing from that initial kickoff and then being just guavitable float past him for God number two.
Yeah, he expected a hardy ceiling hit, didn't think that was going to come back close without getting the hardpods.
Does miss read it completely, and despite Aptus attempting to go like her likes,
can she do trail by the second?
I thought for a second I could see a while, but Sierra puts out the ceiling and gets a
second touch.
It could have been three if he does something incredible there, but not quite to be in that
case he do have some pressure on their own, Juicy is keeping this one to the centre.
The pass is loose.
I only could do something with it with no boost after it steams in.
I asked a question from Matere.
Yeah, no brilliant you were to do that.
It almost goes top ends, but it wouldn't have been, I think, if the goalkeeper's thought
about how it got in.
It wasn't a bad idea by Ato.
So, always be careful when you're running through the demo, and the ball is in a position where no goal is light enough.
Well it's similar to after the CRR game one, is it?
Yeah, the rival angle is the key. The goalie being present, of course, made it a bit safer.
As it is, it remains as we did have in game one, at 2-0 lead to Ninja Ninja Charmers.
Casey to get back though a couple of games ago. Let's see if they can do the same this time the CRR sends it long
Oli's behind it fix that game that boosted us
Jurias and only both 100 boosts, so they should be following this one pulls off CRR
Really good boost control right now for names of the Germans. They seem to have all of them fully tanked
Jurias waits for juicy to put this one along and steals the boost there
So juicy will be able to do too much either and CRR
Majority's getting each other's way a little bit.
Ato is the winning recipient.
And they get some boost here as well.
So Ato's starting to make some forays.
He's been using the pajamas half.
But so far, they're not looking like they're struggling
too much of what they see offering in game three.
And that's a great aerial challenge for Majority
is stopping Ato.
Oh, there.
Now the demo from Oli leaves it open for CRR.
It's NIV in game three.
The response is here for all to see.
Well done.
Good decision there to go for a demo.
I've always loved to see a goalkeeper clean taken out.
They can be dribbled the easiest thing in Rocket League,
just hold down R2,
and the ball will end up in the back of the net.
The swing series continues, Johnny.
I said I hope this would be the one
where both teams perform really up to standards,
but they continue to be wrestling about the pendulum
is flowing from left to right.
Wow!
12, zero hits in the crossbar.
Facing a danger of collapsing in game three.
Yeah, probably should have been for there,
as the defense were completely unprepared for the shot that was coming towards them.
C.R.R.S. is parked in enemy territory here, he's behind Karmicarp lines.
Now, did you see that?
Usually Karmicarp have defensive line way up in the halfway line, but N.I.P.F. is extremely
comfortable here with the goal lead that accumulated.
They're not sitting back and parking the bus, they are fighting for the midfield.
Oh, shot by Metir, though. That is too easy.
N.A.P.
Actually causing some chaos at their own.
Yeah, that's what's from Jorrius. It really wasn't necessary.
Now, whilst another Metir is linger, you don't want to do anything
against the ball towards him or any of the KC players.
And suddenly you think two gold difference, two minutes.
There's loads of time, especially if there's nothing from this kickoff.
Ato fakes it past Jorrius after the kickoff,
tries to get the dunk into the centre and does.
CRR, in a little bit of trouble, no momentum.
It's almost 3-2 straight off the bat.
and only gets an all-important touch.
Now, can an IP continue to hold off
because this league will disappear quickly otherwise?
They're coming, Carpenter. As good as anyone.
And, uh, season these opportunities
when they come along.
Brilliant cut rotation by Ahto.
Jory is a CRR, completely double-committed, for no reason.
And it's in their net again.
And they're falling apart.
Yeah, that's really poor.
They've had such a good game.
And then CRR, that's what I was saying
at the start of the series, Johnny.
He should be at the centre. Everything's good and bad.
Ninja, the Pajamas do. That was part of it.
I don't know if it's his fault or Jorrius' but even so,
an outrageous battle commit.
Casey, right back in this one.
But yeah, either one of them can go there.
They've just got to both not draw the same tag.
Anyone can go, but not both of these.
Now, it's a long minute and 20 seconds
that Karmicorp have got to work with.
In what should have been a pretty routine blowout for NIP,
Depends on what is of cost them
One inch out if you'd say the case you're favorite in this game right now from here will momentum one minute and five seconds left
They are still down by a goal but they're looking like it's gonna be there's unless they can't break through maybe Casey have over committed
Just get the ball back at so and to end you also get the reset can't quite do it about
So everybody to get the reset gets past two of them then juicy almost gets the double demo nearly there
I don't try to keep the attack going
Well, then I'd be a stabilise.
Just got to try to make it more clear who's going when,
and they should be just fine.
This is where their best work all came.
In the offensive half.
But here, I'm going to go light save.
On joyous shot.
Now, Juicy, likewise.
But NIP are swarming.
They're doing to KC what KC do to everyone.
Yeah, they've done really well after surviving that orc
with 20 seconds or so.
This is what they need to do.
Keep the pressure, keep the attacks going.
attacks going the best form of defense against Kami Corpus definitely offense
Juicy wants to read CRR, CRR dances past him with only as far as Metira
who gets a couple of touches as well, wants to bump Jury's out the way, gets to the ceiling
Adler's following up, Jury a huge touch, Juicy maybe with one more chance
Metira off the only con clear and maybe that's the moment Ningzid and Pajamas
retake their lead in this series, the ball is gonna fall as far as Juicy
CRR blocks him continuing to defend from the ball and Metira is allowing Juicy
Hurry up, mate! Don't linger!
Eventually, the game does end, and everyone who said 1-inch shot is silly, because obviously, Nick had the 1-goal lead.
That would have been so sick if they kept the ball up and got a goal there.
From a team bump, a team pull shot, I don't think I've ever seen that being used effectively before.
Yeah, what a crazy series this is. We had the most defensive series of the day before this, where two teams are scared to lose.
And now we've just got two teams slugging it out and there's mistakes happening at both ends.
I think that is kind of as a result of the series being such a high-risk one.
Yeah, no, no, right there. They expect that big bites when they're game at him.
But yeah, both teams are playing so loosely, I should say, that they're kind of making the other team rush their touches.
I think. Oh, wow. Yeah, I think
definitely when they're trying
to play the pace that they're
playing, you know, I mean, would
you have said so with one minute
34 seconds left when when
coming call get that second
goal? What percentage chance
you think they had of winning
that game because I put that
close to 50 50 for calming
call with that much momentum. I
think I agree as much as it
sounds like fancy. I think 50
50 is pretty good because you've
got the two goal momentum, but
mistakes from NIP you're wondering are you gonna get another mistake from NIP in
the final 90 seconds it is possible but yeah yeah when you're looking back at
that double commit it's a standout one we've got to think about because that's
all about game plan you've good you've just got to know who's job it is is this
the third man gonna go oh look at this lovely finish Jory is actually peeling
away from the ball at the perfect time here yeah it also comes from NIP that's
that's where they lead to be poxa.
Jorah's done so much time there as well.
I think that Vincent Pajama's knew that KC or Blue Star,
so Jorah's could take his time,
put it into a dangerous area,
and there only the start of game one was able to put it away.
And it's another great start from Vincent Pajama.
So any worries that KC had all momentum from that last game,
even though they lost it,
probably alleviated on Utopia Colosseum,
on my favorite maps.
So he again goes high, he's working right up against.
CRR is almost able to get that shooting angle,
but only is this a constant thaw in KC Cybers series.
He's been right place right time a lot of the time,
and when Oli is getting on the right side of the ball,
he is such a dangerous player, and sometimes,
he just like, his NMP teammates can,
down the wrong side of the ball,
making the fault for touches,
not been the case today as Oli gets one,
saying, Jory is floating in the air,
lands in front of the other one.
The fall off shot came in,
maybe just a touch too quickly,
story is that falling to the ground yet. I mean all of that came though from
another CRR double commit. Again a dirt bit was his fault or his teammates but
he was involved. Ato back towards Matira, lovely one two, not the first time this series has won one.
It's a phenomenal team play. Matira dodging all these bumps up to Ato, back down and yeah
you're not stopping that one. Fantastic stuff on the cart. The double commits
are noticeable. I think they've just got to have a good idea in those tech
situations where maybe you don't even have time to communicate? Who's who is going?
Is are we going for each other or are we just like third-man challenge? Like you
need to just know what the plan is and stick to it in those situations where
you don't have time to tell your third man what to do.
If anyone is wondering why sometimes teams come together that you think will be
amazing and take over the world and they don't that is why because those
decisions do take time to create and it always works with every single
I'm playing a map of Halkin, which I was there from Juicy only, it was high.
They were going to get this boost as well, I thought it was not going for it, but I wasn't able to do so.
A big demo from Batira on only, should put a little bit of space here for Carmichael.
And then so I can get Juicy, Juicy has a reset, or is set as far as only, and the game has gone into a bit more neutral territory now.
And I think after that goal from Carmichael before, that will suit Nynns and Pajama slightly better.
I think they can turn the screw whenever they want, KC meanwhile, they're going to keep on trying to put them down.
Well, if the world of RLCS continues to have regions being turned upside down and top teams getting toppled,
it would continue to, you would expect NIP to be the victors then, you know, that's been the trend for the past couple of weekends.
Space Station winning NA, you got Minas, top two, falling in the semi-finals, news today of Apex, and the BTSM losing in semis.
No, gentlemen, the major champions already at KC, down, but not out yet.
That's the thing when you're at the top, everyone's trying to get you and learning how to beat your CRR.
Guess it passed a couple of them, it's slightly janky, but it almost worked for him.
A credit to him when he had no boots at all, but Tira's hoping that boost will spawn and does it.
So he's going to be reduced to going for bumps and demos.
CRR had got back in the meantime. Atto shoots, nice effort, only at the near post.
Sometimes some good work here from into the pajamas, but Casey slowly but surely while
he's been chatting, we're getting back on top of him.
Oh, juicy!
Takes out Atto, right when Atto was about to strike.
Atto's tough one.
Casey trying to play closely together, they're trying to get the pressure on, trying to get
the attack to follow as quickly as possible.
But in doing so, they've got in each other's way.
Both teams have fallen prey on that because they are willing to play very closely together
on the pitch.
There it is. Keeps the attack going for Bingsu and Pajamas and gets the bump on Ato as well as Oli of Atira trades.
Sierra was hoping that ball would fall towards him.
That's to word the angle and get it high.
And Fiora does word the angle, gets the bench and it's almost brilliant.
Juicy a save at the top. What an effort from Nip.
And here comes Ato the other way. It's up 3-2-3.
Ato doesn't get it. I can't believe it.
Usually that's what I'm asking for Ato.
Well this time though, Neathart almost causes the magic for themselves to get away with
on down the other end, Jarius.
He's sitting forward, wants to get this dunk, can't do it, Juicy, he goes high.
Too much more with it, so CRR is able to find Ole, he goes for double himself, Tera good
save, good read here from Tera.
This great series here for both teams, so Jarius and the reset could get really much behind
it when he tried to fling it on target, Ole with 50-50s in the back corner.
CRR's heavy committed here, Satoria's in off to be careful.
He is with the base challenge.
Just buying time for his units to come back.
Whoa!
That's a short lap there off there.
Nearly.
He got an IP of trouble this week.
Might want to do a little bit more than that next time.
Yeah, that was a bit nutulot there from Oli.
He got away with it.
You know, the team behind him, I don't think Pami caught
a quite expecting Oli to quite roll out with Red Carpet
the way that he did with 15 seconds left now.
CRR flicks it past Matira.
but Tera all he can do is watch juicy doesn't clean work in the corner
he said he's gonna be great today as well
Oh but they're only getting started on the way in!
It's Ato and the 50-50 master himself now!
And this is why you can't flip into the ball and you put his back corner
you just cannot be doing that
it's why the meta of losing 50 slowly is developed because if you flip
you have just pitched the ball and you're on net
2 seconds left, can Ninjalum Pyjamas make up for it or will this series continue to go neck and neck for Tyra?
He's high, Oli up against Tyra, but Tyra has to get the gold, it's not going to matter.
Carmine caught Winnie and I would say Oli's chief ability, the main thing that he brings into a team is brilliant 50-50s.
But that Johnny, as you were describing, was not a brilliant 50-50.
Yeah, that wasn't what they needed at the end there, I mean, you really are seeing the
rise all around the world of losing 50s on purpose, but the key part of that is controlling
the 50 while you lose it.
You don't want to add a ton of power by flipping towards them all.
And this is actually just state boosting towards them all, you didn't actually have
a flip.
You just stop the coolest thing you can do when you're conceding and when you score as well when you hit it from your own
It's like yeah, that's going in sometimes you look silly when it doesn't but coolness points definitely that I
Just love how animated joy is is he really does?
He just wears a sartre in a sleeve the balls going in and he's double face famine as it's on its way
Such a native player watch we'll find honor off the pitch, but
let's hear the
Are they un-tilted? Can they un-tilt themselves?
Oh, Casey already knocking the door of the game by.
Would you suggest an attack to the time out there after conceding that goal?
I know it's 2-2, but that's a shot.
I think no, because, you know, Zoria is an NIP, they're a very emotional team,
but they're going to be fighting, so they've got LBP, the mental coach.
That is what he brings the team as the coach,
And I'm sure he's gonna have them leveled out and prepared for game five
Here we go then in game five
And even 35 seconds or so, but I suppose boot seal might change that material is just a shoe and he does and it was from that boost deal
Joy is
You didn't get a touch. She was looking for there wanted to lob it into the corner
And get back to it
As is it just bounces in from a tear up
Yeah, it's good leave though, KC realized that they were going to have a free shot.
Oof, NAP really needs to stabilize here.
Jeroz has touched, won't be able to help them do that, but the Tira clears long atto, it's
just a shooting chance, it is a shooting chance!
Oh my!
KC continuing to fill momentum.
The Tira just smashes it forward atto, the outlet option is already up there and NAP
We cannot even get close to it under its retin.
Yeah, they're starting to concede with nobody in net, which is a bit worrying for NIP.
Nobody back for the last game.
Revis game, nobody back for the first two goals in this game either.
Let's get back there by Jory.
You see how he's got control, he's done well there.
Stay away from the danger.
I mean that would be a very fun goal where you go into your own goal, you go up and sort
of push it above it.
Then you team up, read RX, then you get an aerial bump, and then you go for another bump.
That would have been a real fun one. Couldn't quite do it.
So well played to calming off and defending it in the end.
That's the idea there from CRR, but...
...inspirational German's had to go back to the drawing board.
The last time Erica put goals down, they ended up conceding a third.
It was well and truly game over.
But it's the same as last time. There's plenty of game left.
You might be able to wrangle something back, but they had to get themselves on the scoreboard.
Otherwise KC, they will just keep on scoring, and they will keep on fooling you,
and your heads could really drop Vatira.
But maybe he could have gone for a clean shot
instead of going for a double.
Only push that one out wide, but it's only as far as Atto,
and we're seeing that infamous KC squeeze.
Have nice thoughts here by CRR.
The follow-up is Carmen Corpself.
Joy is a nice pass, if you'll tell me.
An NIP on the board.
That one just made it, and Joy has had to boom the pass
to avoid Atto.
In doing so, he made it a bit of a stretch
for Oli to reach for the free play.
Yeah, fair enough to be fair. I thought only it almost messed up the shot, but the ball was a long way in front of him.
He had to speed up into it to reach it, so fair enough only.
And that does it again.
Getting into the Pichamas back into this one, so can they be able to pull him into it this time?
Can they do so? Can they use it?
Juicy, he's curious, then gets a second touch as well, pops it high.
Sierra has to do something with this ball with the hazard, he had no boost, believe him so.
You've got to touch it, Johnny.
It was Safi, got completely stuck underneath the ball there.
Just barely misses it. He's probably expecting the attacker to arrive a bit sooner than they did as well
So he didn't take his time and go for a lord point of contact to try to get out there and match
What do you expect it to be a faster follow-up?
Yeah, he couldn't stay with the ball though without the boost. They would have been needed in the crossbarc
Up to the rescue of NIP. I think all he knew that was off target though. So good awareness my head
See our goes as far as can it.
And this is the back for this time.
The chariot's only sock at each other's way.
And Matira's waiting for that moment to come forward
to one more would surely kill this game.
That's those already up, because of course he is,
because Matira's up as well with these two.
It's not as like synchronized swimming or something
in the way that they don't know where the other one is
going to go high, but didn't quite lead to a goal this time.
Still two minutes left.
I mean, this game has gone relatively slowly.
There's been four goals.
I thought I were at the end of it,
but there's still so much time left in it.
here and another good read in the attempted in dual pass. Intercepts it. Slaps it long now.
It all comes back up to him. What kind of soft touch didn't really get any.
So yeah the KC guys, I think they double commit pretty well. What I mean by that is they go at
different angles. They cover different options. When they do double commit, they're landing with
momentum. They're going into different positions. They're not double committing in the same
both in the same place and hindering each other's recoveries by doing so.
Oh, but Sierra almost squeezes that one in, that would have been game over,
but instead it can come forward. Sierra gets in, again on the, on the tones I'm only,
not quite where he wants the ball slightly in front of him, making him stretch.
And he thinks, well, going for this one, but Ato's going to come in clean,
can Sierra get onto this one? Oh, no he can't, and that is pure shooting skills from the Belgian.
Yeah, so what's more just fighting in the time to run out to the midfield is
hit them all really hard. It's got getting away from NIP now they really had
such a good position in the series up to one in game who's very much in that third
game as well but all of a sudden I mean you give kick for one chance and it all
all of a sudden started to peak as well. He's in a very solid series that so
usually we're screaming his name loudly when he's scoring amazing goals. We enjoy watching
fundamental action as well. I mean again I asked you a slightly loaded question at the start of
this game of should MIT have taken a tactical time out after the tilter of the last game? And I
think that now I'm prepared to say yes I think they should have taken a tactical time out after the last game.
I don't hate it though, sometimes we work very critical of the lack of time in some situations,
but I think that with the experience that they've got, should be able to regain from losses like the one they had.
That's an opportunity, and not our rubbish-type goal either.
This is definitely winnable still, it's Jarius, gets up quick and leased gears it, which was actually a necessary one.
But they need a kickoff possession at least here in the thing.
Well, it might save them a second as well.
If the second was going to tick over before the ball went in,
that steal could be really important come the end of this game.
But as we know, the kickoff strats both teams have got.
Casey had it safely in the far corner.
Ole, it's a touch there.
Lovely play from Ole.
Can you get this next one to link the play?
Not quite.
So Ole's going to Sierra.
He must again.
Something on it.
I love Sierra, honestly.
You can get anything from Sierra.
That was also another just...
It's only 50-50 in the back corner.
was flying across the midfield.
When all he's about to do is make some 50 the ball,
and that gives his back corner run.
Get somebody in the net.
The ball just kept flying back at you.
So you're always going to stop free jumping every time
only goes for a 50 in the corner.
When all he comes, he's centering it.
What you need to understand is he means go to net.
I reject immediately.
Somebody get back.
Well, there is a tactical timeout,
I think as much as anything else, it's momentum reset for it than a momentum blocker for Carmine Corp because
these are pajamas. Have the game better have the place style.
Certainly so to be able to be coming caught. They were keeping the pressure earlier. They were keeping the ball in the
coming Corp half the last couple of games. That's not really happened. And it's all been in my opinion as we
identified Johnny from that moment, but only moment a couple of games ago on the
intensified Johnny from that moment, that only moment, a couple of games ago when he took the
economy in. So, I think this one is as much of a mental reset as anything else.
Yeah, they've absolutely got the peek ability, and I think it just seems like such a, I mean,
the way they're playing must be so stressful to play. They create so much chaos and it's
very often at their own expense in the last couple of games. Jorias seems to be literally
tearing his hair out right now. Try to get some kind of strategy going. But yeah, you
couldn't really see it there for his elbow. It looks like he might have packed for a boot
cap or something. I think he's got some... Is that a keyboard back there? What has he
got on his bed? Maybe he's changing to KDM. At least he's made his bed, unlike Oli.
So that's something. They make the bed matter. Seems to be better.
You're a make the bedder. A team make the bed.
Yeah, so I have read that you're not meant to make the bed straight away.
There's some reason that you need to let it air out.
Really?
Yeah, after a little while, you then make the bed and then it's like a reset for your mind
without making it in the journey, is what I've read.
Yeah, I think it's supposed to be like starting your day with a little wind,
you know, you can just make your bed and then at least, okay,
even if the rest of the day goes wrong, at least we did that bit right.
You could feel like a professional human for a minute.
Start on the right foot.
something that I've read but yeah so uh I'm hoping that we could come into into this one here on on the otoquio where some amazing
moments in rocket leak history of course have happened and we are might not sound relevant but imagine it only
like shows up next event with a maid bed and just plays the cleanest rocket leavers
a dozen fiftieth of all in some bed just doesn't do that for the flawless day I mean we might be
be honest I'm in here and I'd be if you're listening you get all your
matches bad you could have done it in the timer they had the time that would be
a play sorry I'll be getting a speaking I have to I forgot to do
get some mix event in the timer that would be class right there see that
we're getting to wait for next event to see if we'll get the time I bet making
Oh, the final! If they get it.
Oh, what a final. Hold on.
If they do pull out in the final, that would be a relief.
Well, they've got to get that first.
They've got to get that first.
That involved winning two games in a row against the Carme Inc.
But they're really beginning to step up
at the version of themselves that won the kickoff line
a couple of months ago.
But they hit Mauer doing what they do.
CRR, best and worst of NIP. I love him.
Look at that, just driving challenge, gets the bump and then the shot on target as well.
That's lovely, you don't need to go for the ball in the back corner, you just drive by.
Big challenge, look for bumps, look for demos.
And if you keep ball count on you might even have a shot.
And it was from the only 50-50 as well, so that was the antithesis, the goal they conceded a few ago.
CRR now staring down the tier of a tier of a three, well it's going to throw itself, but only takes him out.
Jury is pushing someone to the side and CRR has boost as well.
So these pajamas begin to encroach upon the Karmine corp goal line.
That's great play from Atto.
No boost, so look how far he's got that ball.
You see, Juroff headed down with the ceiling interception.
Fight for the mid-boost.
One there by, all here against Vittira, who's now running away to look for...
...boost, some yellow pastures I guess, he finds at the back corner.
This is exactly what NIP needed. They're not making any mistakes, they're just putting
NKZ on the back of it, just ever so slightly. Oh no, big mess for Willie! That's no one
that needs, that's not what we needed, we're just trying to compliment him and then making
mistakes like that one.
And if you get away with it, this could be tricky, but Sierra out in front of him, but
Here it goes, the back-born at Jorias saves the day.
CRR and Fist, maybe CRR on comfort.
He wasn't certain.
Jorias made sure.
That was a great number to defend against Jorias.
That was a great double commitment
because you recovered in anyway.
Yeah, you know, even if your teammate does get the shots,
you're likely to back wall boost and momentum.
So I love that from Jorias.
He's covered in the chance of a miss.
CRR didn't have any stories to see that, of course.
KC can knock.
So CRR jumping, just to put KC off, perhaps.
Maybe he thought he could get a touch in the ball, but he wasn't far off.
Jorri isn't at home.
That's great to get off the jersey and he can't quite get the save.
He doesn't have the boost.
And KC, opportunistically, make it 1-1.
Jorri, as he tried to bring it down, it's such a hard skill.
It looks a lot easier than it is to bring the ball down in Rocker League.
And he just got on the wrong side of it there,
trying to low-fix to keep them on the back corner
and kicks out mid for KC to tie the game.
in the game. CRR's going to win this kickoff, Bo and Jerry is, that's the booted plantage
too, wants to get past a couple of them, that's a, to force him wide, but at least
there to, maybe complete the job here for Mings and Fajardo, that's still safe despite
that golden calming call, the nip having better here on the Otochia, and they don't seem to
be too affected by the fact that KC scored last, CRR sent it as far as he can, juicy,
leads for Vatero, what can Vatero conjure up to change that? He wants to get a couple
of box, does so nearly get to one, and that was going to fall anywhere, he was in slow
motion in front of the net goal, but during this time he's able to get away.
Over to your 50s, he's gone straight to Oli.
Oh, yes he can! Oli makes it 2-1, and we had a 50-1 end going wrong for NAB.
No, it's perfect, CRR. That's such a good job to steer that one back.
Never mind, lovely second touch, that is from Oli because it's so easy to
beat the opponent and get it above the goal, but he knew the goal itself was clear.
If he can just gently glide it past that man, it's going to be a finish.
That was a beautiful play from him, and now his team have the lead.
Almost considered from the kick-off didn't happen, only.
Can he get another one of those low-boost pit resets that changed the angle? Not quite.
Sierra diving in there, Jari is up against Juicy, trying to keep coming, caught Pen back.
Sierra doing a wide rotation, and we'll come his way. It does, and there's another good piece of his from only.
Sierra.
They didn't think he had an extra touch coming at them, but he does.
CRR doesn't go on the wall, he just cuts in field and Juicy misses.
Vitero pushed up, he thought Juicy was getting at least a 50-50 there,
but a total mess gives CRR another goal.
Yeah, any touch there from Juicy and they're okay.
Vitero did not bank on the total win.
Anyway, Vitero coming in from the kickoff.
Joris has to get it, and he does.
Juicy's coming in, must be free-to, but it's not.
And then Oli is able to block out Atto for now.
CRR boosless.
Chorias has got 12.
He's not used boost for about 20 seconds
because he is hoarding that 12
because he knows at some point he may well need it.
That's fantastic defense of NIP there.
As Chorias makes a little launch,
saves CRR against Goldstein again.
And now Oli's chasing Atto away from the play.
The goal line saves from NIP.
I mean, CRR can play some great defense in this exchange.
Chorias likewise.
Minutes ago though, they've got to keep scrambling.
Yeah, Jarius didn't use that match with 12 boosts in the end to get that goal line saved, and it keeps his team two goals to the good.
Juicy has Metira to his left. Can he get them all down to him? Or can he go solo instead?
Oh, he can only get it as far as Jarius. Jarius does get an important touch, not for the first time.
At around the corner, only huge 50. As far as Metira though, no one in the centre right now for calming call.
They're trying to keep their power dry, hold their nerve, not rush into things. Juicy underneath it, but Jarius is able to get it higher.
Keep that ball off, and it takes away that precious few more seconds.
Pre-jump from Oli, I mean everybody's just trying to win the race to the ball here.
NIP are looking pretty good overall. Oh!
What happened to Sierra? He just drifted out of position.
Metir has made him jump. He must have thought Metir was chasing him from behind.
He's driven forward there. He must have thought Oli was behind him.
And that wasn't the case. It was actually just an open net and just like that case here back in it.
And KC do have the kickoff strats to score here in 25 seconds, that's how fakes it for Juicy.
It's not going to be a decent one for Nick, no it's not at all because Matira has control but his touch was loose.
Goes back out too Juicy.
But at that awkward moment earlier, it seems to have recovered somewhat as Matira to Denon only.
Sierra goes off, this could be Gaze, can't do too much to miss and doesn't and that should be Gaze 7 confirmed.
This time CRR, he dodged it up in the back corner, that's when the defensive rotation is slow from KC.
They were really pushing for the equaliser here and they did not land the necessary demo on CRR that would have made that play for possible.
Nice spot shot attempt there from Karmin Corp, but they said they'll make any difference.
Things with pajamas will have done enough to force a game 7 against Karmin Corp.
Call me in court who still have a tactical time out and do take their tactical time out. You might as well
Though free momentum for you coming into the seventh one bit
For what interesting series that either team has dominated game to game
We've only had one I'd say where both teams are completely even and I wonder if that'll be the same in in the seventh
Yeah, very interesting series right back before series and IP who are extremely momentum based team
and he's really, um, thriving in this circumstance.
Great job by them.
They were able to steady the ship.
CRR opening the scoring with a lovely fake challenge in the back corner.
And then a 50 back to only who does the rest.
I mean, that was a phenomenal goal by him.
And it wasn't done though.
Juicy's miss gives CRR another one.
That was a miss play from Juicy in, you know, no uncertain terms.
to get a touch on the ball there, and he did not, and Vatira could not read that happening.
It's interesting because it's been a really fun series to cast on it. I hope for you guys
watching on to watch and be part of, but it's not been the highest quality. There have been
errors, there have been the occasional whiffs. To me, if either team can just play a clean
8 out of 10 game, they should have this, but that's so much easier said than done on Champions
What both teams are, they're accepting the challenge of trying to read every play just
a split second before it happens, trying to race to every ball.
Karmicorp will feel like they are the more mechanical team, they'll feel like they are
the faster team, but I'm sure NIP would say the same thing.
When you've got two teams who fancy the chances at reading the play just a bit earlier than
your opponents and winning the races to the ball that they're necessary at this level,
But yeah, you're going to get a game where with some more likely to happen, players are
pushing themselves to the limit.
Mis-touches are likely to happen because, again, players are trying to be that little
bit faster.
They might probably wouldn't do this against other competition, but it shows the respect
they've got for one another.
But they are pushing to that limit and trying to eke out any advances they can.
What everyone loves there is everybody's favorite map, the decider, calming corp versus
Ninjas in pyjamas and what has been an incredibly swingy series will all come down to the next five minutes
Plus we're assuming that these teams are both going to make Paris the way they're playing at the moment
But you do not say no to a grand final the chance to win in the case of calming court yet another
EU open they'll have to get through nip first
Can you never know I mean top four is not that much of a points lead so they really do need this one
to feel very comfortable about Paris and let's see who can start off the
stronger the two teams look out in particular for the challenges from NIP
earlier in the series they were double committing on a few of those and it cost
them dearly they've cleaned up their act and started to synergize to a far higher
level in the business end of the series only is done by Mitterra and Atto
it's funny a boost to player Mitterra was hoping a boost would spawn underneath him
and that one almost bounces away and right quite short.
And they touch as that happened.
The ball was pinballing in front of the Ninsen and Pajama's goal.
And for them, it didn't lead to a goal,
but it still might as Ato goes high and CRR has to get this read.
It's Karmicorp pressing early.
Pitch, center ball by Juicy does get hard cleared by a ready goalkeeper.
And that's CRR, there by Kourtney, looking for the ball for the goalies.
And he's able to follow up as CRR does the darty work off the ball,
Swams at him, and keeps Petira grounded just long enough early to get there.
Yeah, that's what Sierra does best, and there was a huge response from CRR as well on the facecamps.
Really raw after that one went in.
He's trying to keep his composure over the next four minutes, because one goal won't mean too much in this game, I'm sure.
As Petira goes to the back, it won't be able to make any angle. Actually he got too much angle, incredibly, but it remains 1-0.
That's crazy that he's missed it by hitting it too far down of all places.
Zero's back corner challenge game has been a big difference maker in both this game and the last.
And he's not challenging the ball necessarily, he's just driving it to the post back corner, faking challenges, driving past looking for demos.
But it's really done a number on KC who are expecting the ball to be the play. It's not.
The damn most of his materials, the last ditch saved, keeps the scurrilite at 1-1, or 1-0 sorry.
Great chance here for Oli to find CRR, I think it was, Oli's underneath this one, but at least still boosts.
Jerry's arrives late.
So there's a slightly awkward angle here, all he can do is get some height on the ball, but he knows he's going to go towards Oli,
so he needs material to help him out, and he does.
Hey, so he seems to have set off the ship for now.
Oli and Jerry are still here. Wow, that's gone some way, that's gone some distance.
Nearly in, but out of nothing, a shooting chance there for Ninja Limp pajamas.
That's nicely done again by CRR.
Fitted the ball back to Jorias.
The T-Rex does so well though
to control the following play.
Once again, the willingness to KC
to send multiple players to the ball
is plain to see, but it's not
resulting in goal scoring opportunities for now.
Wiley Thommark racing out onto that ball,
but realised that he probably would have got done.
Jorias will take this boost, it's not the T-Rex getting it.
Farming called for him to get into wide the way back up,
but one touch from only changing all that.
all that Sierra on the left wing he'd love to take out Ato but can't quite do so so instead he has to
put a little bit later and he's turned this time goes to the back wall, Matteiro is waiting for it
limiting Nip to as few shots as possible five for Nip, three for calming Corp so Nip have the stats
and so far Nip have the goal lead as well. Yeah play for a game so far, Joy is looking for
a goalie in the middle he only fights Matteiro though Matteiro's got the ball under control but
But he's lifted it too high, and that was going to be an error to a bubble-tank.
He wants to really put the ball in a threatening position, he sort of cleared it with that double-jump pop.
CRR first time on out towards Jorias. Love how he'll be able to pass.
Azo shoots big save from Jorias!
Not for the first time, he's the last man on the goal line, and he times approach perfectly.
And now CRR can't quite get this second touch.
Huge stop. They're going to need more of those. They get across the finish line.
That only got no materialist miscovered by Ato who was there just in case
And now some space for material to work. He decides to take it to the side wall sure he is
Easily able to get up and stop that one
Back to juicy to have a go. He's passed one. Can he get past two? Yes, he can and now here goes material
That's those in the center as well. When will these two?
Put this spell upon the ball
Juicy in the corner hoping an infield pass will show up
to put it to safety and again, Oli's back.
How has he kept out any of those?
Never mind all of them.
30 seconds left.
Yucca BNIP again, had two in the backball read.
But don't get it back, Astoria's.
Oli's now eight shoots.
If he can get a goal that would cap off
an incredible performance, but it won't matter too much.
Unless Carl Meencourt can get the equalizer.
15 seconds left.
Juicy wants to get it into the middle.
Doesn't do so.
Oli again gets the read.
Then he gets it past Matira.
Can he see it?
No, no, no, what the f-
CRR on card!
Never gonna make it to the Grand Finals!
Carbinko will be out!
And Oli has just taken over the game, saves on one end,
leaves the counterattack to the other.
And even though he said the post-miffle was technically an open net,
it doesn't matter, because CRR's there to finish it.
And that is game, NIP are gonna eliminate Garmin Gark in seven.
And they do it by winning the last two games.
EU's wide open, RLCS is wide open right now, globally.
Predictions are in shambles,
and NIP might be the team to be.
Oh, what a thrilling series that was.
I'm beaming at the moment after witnessing that one.
Carmencote looked like they were showing off their quality.
You know, he said they'll go back themselves
to have the mechanical edge, and they did.
but nip dug so deep in order to win that one.
And that the man of a match only, I mean, yes.
You've earned that only, you've earned the right to do that.
But you still got a point over the forward two.
He's under it, it's a never-baked bet,
and I'm not the one to take this.
That's true, but he was wrong.
Absolutely fine, hey, messy bed matters,
absolutely fine, really.
Are we doing the same one?
Talk about that every day.
When the series is done and we head off,
I'm gonna go and mess my bed off, you know what I mean?
Like that is really the messer.
I mean, it starts to do a magnate in goal.
Every ball was just hitting him.
It didn't matter where KC shot them all.
Oli was there.
There was one shot, though, the Karmine Karmine.
Absolutely should have scored.
I forget who it was who had the opportunity.
CRR did a great job to create the opening goal.
But yeah, Oli had practically no boost.
That save is outrageous.
This one, he shouldn't be affected.
That is basically an open net.
If that's done by some left, it's, yeah.
It should be, it should be a goal in the matter of course,
but only Thugwell, of course, to save it.
But Cargacarth, they let themselves die in there,
and they're eliminated.
And we still got one more,
or for one more setting final to come.
After the break, you know, kind of want to miss it.
Oh, now this guy's going that way.
Now I'm getting the lay of the land.
Valets can be a big test
for a young homeowner turning into their parents.
There's an overflow lot somewhere in their vicinity.
If the garage is full, they go to the auxiliary.
Instead of on the garage is full,
they go to the overflow.
I heard him out right here.
Let's just stand quietly.
But I bet you guys have driven some great cars, huh?
Progressive can't protect you from becoming your parents.
But we can protect your home and auto when you bubble with us.
I think you might have brought the wrong car.
We had the red convertible.
Ha ha ha.
I
I'm the one who's gonna die in hell
What a shame
Once you get lost, that's it
I'm the one who's gonna die
What do I need to see?
What is my way?
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I'm just trying to get out of here
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I'm just trying to get out of here
I'm just trying to get you
I'm just thinking of anything
I'm falling apart
Feels like I'm giving too much in value
This record's broken, I'm just trying to move my feet again
I can't even live in my bus bed
Cause I'm not the only thing
You'll be my dream to be
And I fell for the truth
But I'm sleeping all the same
And I'm not the only thing
So nobody here to see
We're all just hiding things
I
Welcome back to the Rocket League Championship Series.
We continue on with one team now in the Grand Finals and it's not Carmine Corp.
It's Ninjas in a Pajamas.
to the surprise of all the predictions out there.
They managed to claw on through in a game at seven
and talk about that series.
We've got Jorias with me now.
I saw some reactions that didn't look happy before,
but now you look like you're smiling.
Of course, you're in the grand finals.
Congratulations.
Yeah, thank you.
Yeah, definitely.
I mean, we had that little pinch, pinch go
at three seconds left, I think in game five it was,
or game four, as I don't think a lot of people will be happy when you, when you, when you concede
that goal with three seconds left. So there's definitely some field. Yeah.
I picked it up well, I guess. Yeah. At the end of the day, you guys, you pulled on Thoreau,
I want to talk about the journey leading up to this, because I feel, and I feel like you'll
give me a candid answer with this as well. You know, everyone that makes it to the bracket
deserves to be here. But do you feel like your run was a little less challenging than maybe
something you guys are used to in a tournament like this?
Oh, 100%.
I saw the Mickey run bracket allegations in mine.
And I think they're completely right.
We've had a very easy road to top four.
But then hopefully we get those Mickey bracket allegations
out the window now with this trailer against Casey.
Yeah.
Well, and I was saying that right before the match, too,
that it's not just for the season overall.
You guys want to get into the grand finals.
It's a proving point for this run.
I like to show, okay, now that you've got a real opponent,
can you take them down?
Were you a little bit nervous being like,
hey, we haven't had a full practice against the team
of this caliber coming into this matchup?
I mean, I wouldn't say nervous, more excited
because contrary to last split,
we actually kind of got like a playstyle right now.
Last split, we were like,
are we trying to make each other feel good?
And right now we actually have something set in stone.
So I wanted to showcase that
and see if it will work in tournament.
I was very confident in it.
But it's nice to see like we got a good thing going right now.
We're working towards a good thing.
Just started, but it's already great wind to start off on.
Yeah, I mean, you know, you're the person that gives me some of the best answers.
But I'm assuming it's still going to be, I can't tell you.
But what do you what do you've been working on?
What's the thing?
I I I I might might have to give you a little worse answer than that.
That's that's confidential.
Yeah, that's fair.
I expected a PR answer on that one.
But I guess just looking at the region overall,
you know, we see gentlemates and GK not making this through.
EU region, we've been talking about it all weekend.
Is it depth or inconsistency?
You know, what causes these things to happen with teams?
I mean, credit to what creditors do.
I think, especially in a circle team,
they looked insane and synergy put up quite a fight,
but I'll have to give it to inconsistency right now.
Fair enough. Yeah, I'd debate to like to hear that.
But hey, you guys are at the Grand Finals right now.
You've got a system it sounds like.
And honestly, I'm excited to see that continue
to the Grand Finals.
I'm going to let you go take a break.
Talk with the team.
Make sure you got it locked in.
Congratulations, Jorias.
I'm the Grand Finals.
Thank you.
Hey, you like to hear it.
Feeling good is great.
But having a system, guys, is even better.
I agree.
Yeah, every team needs a system.
And they've clearly got one that's working now.
If you could take that KC, even an inconsistent KC history is like to point out there.
Yeah, they look organized, especially compared to last split.
The NIP, they look good.
I like what I've seen from them. I'm starting to trust them a little bit more.
They'll earn it one day for you, Johnny.
A few more wins against Karmic Cup and a few more solid Game 7 performances.
And I'm sure you'll have them.
I can see as the ball rolls slowly into the net.
I can see why you do not trust them at times.
But that's why I love the guys I was saying.
I trust them to give us those moments.
And I'll always love them for that.
It seems that no matter what team,
knit the org, introduce, they will have those moments.
And that's part of the fun.
I asked one thing I love about Jor-Ace as well,
is you're going to get real emotions out of him.
It's not always just a straight base the whole way through.
You get real human moments like that.
And that's what it is.
That's what makes this game exciting, too,
is some of those inconsistent moments.
Oh, man.
every every time I see that missed opportunity. I can't believe case he didn't score it
after he scored that kid elected for Juicy and Juicy easily scores that I just can't believe they've missed up on that chance
You gotta give so much credit though to Oli. I mean he basically gambled. He said I predict the ball is going this way. He went for it
I think it reminds me a little bit of, was it Ryze a few years ago when he spawned before we could see where we were spawning
and he was already holding a certain direction. If it was wrong, it got the wrong way. It was a joy, was it?
Yeah, it's true.
It wasn't that one, but I think he turned the wrong way.
He did turn the wrong way, but his reaction was so...
He turned the wrong way.
So it was for like a millisecond, he had turned the right way.
Oh, so his reaction was so fast.
His brain is just so fast.
Yeah.
Got it.
Fair enough.
Anyway, it was sitting the way he commenced.
Was it?
Was it a rise?
Yeah, it was a rise, yeah.
Either way, yeah.
No, that was a pure reaction time, but it feels so instinctual sometimes.
But here's the bracket, as we do have one grand finalist team now, Ninjas in pajamas,
much to, again, I guess a surprise.
We knew it would be a good series, but everyone went with K-Corp on that one and they are
no longer, no longer in this.
That means we have one more best of seven before getting to those grand finals.
And you can see the two teams, it's going to be team Vitality, Expected.
On the other side though, a hot and ready Manchester City coming in with Seiko Cole,
who's just brought a whole new life to this team.
He's excellent, isn't he?
I'm glad that we heard in the interview earlier, Man City sort of making the allegory to what
happened at the kickoff or the pre-kickoff in Copenhagen when they were 3-0 up against
Novo and ended up losing 4-3. It was starting to look a little bit like that against K-DOT,
not quite as extreme, but that sense that when momentum goes against this team, they
can fold and they can flop, but they managed to win out Johnny on Champions field will
be absolutely massive for them as a trio of Seiko now as well.
Yeah, for sure the the
Man City org can be very happy with how this is turned out because obviously they didn't instigate the change that has now resulted
The sake of being in the roster, but yeah
It looks like they've had the biggest benefit off that because if the team lacked experience and lacked consistency
Seiko seems to seem seems to be bringing that and he definitely knows as a former world champion how to
Finish the season strong and that's what they're looking to do here
You see the progressive fan vote is live now. We can start tallying up your votes
I'm going to go back to the
game. I'm going to go back to
the game. Hashtag MCFC for
Manchester City. Hashtag VIT for
Vitality. This one I feels might
be a little bit closer. Obviously
get the fan favorites of
Vitality. Got down on the squad.
You're going to have some
guaranteed but for that, but I
feel like there's got to be kind
of a renewed love here for
Manchester City. I mean, it's a
strong brand behind it as well.
And for people cold, they just
game five overtime as well.
So anybody who who's just
started watching over the last
couple of days in this Friday,
by the way, we have Friday
shows back on the main
broadcast. So make sure you're
tuning in every Friday. Well
worth watching more of a relaxed
vibe. I love it. I love watching
those. Um, yeah, for anyone who
is thinking that this won't be
simple for team vitality. I know
it's best to five. Now is the
best of seven. I know that it
was in the upper bracket. Now a
semi final is all different, but
it's still the same six players
and we know these man city
players will call the game
and we're going to have to
take a look at the game.
We know these man city players will cause team vitality some issues.
Well, I'm not sure it depends.
I mean, they did in the group stage, but I don't know.
Today, we haven't seen vitality at all, of course, but I think I say you look nervous earlier on.
They didn't look like they're willing to commit as much to the offense as they usually do.
So I want to see more.
I think Seiko is very, very aggressive.
Honestly, Acro looking more aggressive, but they're going to need Acro to be his best version of himself.
if they're going to have a chance here.
I mean, it makes sense to you.
Seiko's the one with experience against players like this.
Like, he's been through this so many times before.
He's faced down these opponents.
So I expect that same kind of thing here and now.
The question is, do we think that's enough?
Is Seiko enough for a grand finalist here
over a squad like Vitality?
You know, I got to say no.
I think, you know, I also thought K-Corp was the right pick.
but I think Vitality call has to be the right picker.
I think so. I think Vitality are continuing to look like
a supreme force in EU at the moment.
They're getting more and more comfortable.
So yeah, I think I'll take this one.
Maybe four, one or something like that.
Yeah, Vitality, of course.
I think they should win this one pretty comfortably
if they play to the expected level.
But we haven't seen them today.
So every day of the new day, maybe they have an update.
They've been pretty consistent recently.
They also have to back him.
The immense need to be more aggressive than they were in their 4-1 matchup if they want to make this difficult for Vitality.
Just quickly, what is a comfortable win for Team Vitality here too?
4-0, 4-1, I'd say. Or just, you know, maybe they could win Game 5-6 with lots of goals or something.
Yeah, 4-1, 4-1 are better, they should be looking for it.
All right, chat thinks as well we find out who goes and joins ninjas and pajamas in the grand finals right now as we have team vitality
They seem it down Manchester City a rematch that Manchester City is gonna want to win to prove that they belong with the top dogs
Find out now they hold the ground against team vitality
So the ninjas and pajamas to a way in the grand finals with the vitality is locked shins go back to back
since their Boston outing, but for Manchester City a chance at the first-ever grand finals for the
org after their previous best result of a top four. Born to be by Progressive is game number one.
Debates, let's get the fuck. Let's get the World Show going in. Very excited here by Taube looking
to make another grand finals set it back to back. Kind of the major of course met by Taube
organization they have not won a regional proper whatever you want to call it hold on wait a second since
2024 spring we've
nice to see you say go already starting off turning it right a bit but yes uh
I'll tell you recent history regarding former victories last year looking the best lost that
last three grand finals say go I was not what an event since Copenhagen back in 2020
24 where he won with the gentlemates so certainly I don't think that's turning up
And oh what a good pump that is enough. I'm chased down
I'm the best first person here. There's actually going to take over
I'm sure it's gonna take over right here very very excited. I think we're talking about say come audio cut out for a second
Sorry, you did there. You did the classic you uh
Replugging your controller and then your speed decided not that's the one that you want for now
Yeah, I think that's what happened. There's some point there
That's a pretty sick round of Copenhagen 2024.
What was it, 2023?
Honestly, my years are all bad at this point.
I can't tell half the time.
There's East on the way. Just wants the 50.
I've got a very good tournament so far from him.
And then, I'm going to take control at least for now.
Back forwards.
Back row. Take it back over.
Very low scoring games earlier on between Manchester City and Synergy.
Synergy, well, they're going to be really special here.
What a strike from Zen.
I mean, it's just so talented.
What the end of Octane, by the way, this weekend,
but just got a new friend.
I know way back in the day, Abjack's going to say,
he always played Octane.
If you watch the video over the Abjack, we'll hype him up.
He was.
Then he hopped on the Fennec, won a world championship
of course.
We haven't seen him on Octane that much in his professional
career on and so far this weekend.
That's a snipe.
I think that we really only get those types of accuracy
with Octane.
And then the fitting does just this.
A nice little silver flip.
Ah, my exotic.
Yeah, great.
50 just to trample that straight into the fabric.
So I think I say, Co,
why don't you try a fake challenge?
There were also a lot of fake challenges earlier on
from Manchester City.
I don't think they're gonna get away with that nearly as much.
You can see, like, a lot of fatality.
You would just see the fake challenge and just say,
okay, well, at least we can get that block kick off.
I'm walking out too great.
Seiko's low boost, so difficult to create too much in here.
And Exotic's aware of it.
We're set, gained.
Manchester City.
They have to find something here.
They had moments of time, especially this season,
where they can go 10, 12 minutes without really finding
their form.
They're not going to have that luxury in the series.
No, they're not.
The last time these two teams played and game number one,
Vitality actually ended up scoring seven goals.
So they're going to want to keep this type of game
playing a little bit closer.
They as a man city don't want the game to get to a ride.
Let the games they won by Vitality,
They thought it was zero goals and maybe one goal, and other than that,
when Vitality got the victory, it was a high scoring affair.
That's how it's defense, much improved recently.
And there you get to see a few weird ones for a period of time.
This one certainly is a bit of a pressure.
But they very early moved the jump and not gonna get any reward for it.
Two goals still for the better, Zen just clears.
That's a chance for Vitality just to reposition.
I trust they need two teams play as well because we got the Seiko edition on Man City.
I do believe that it provides them structure.
So, well needed structure for this Man City squad.
In place of Temple.
Temple's more exciting, more dynamic in my estimation, but Seiko's just been so solid
for his whole entire career.
So, just having him on the squad really gives Edgeby space to work his acro, just a consistent
man right behind him knows I can go up and make play.
I think that's really kind of really led them all the way to this top four at the moment.
Also maybe a little bit of a personal stake on this match-up.
Then we've watched Manchester City eliminate K-LapCorp earlier on.
The two players, as they did go and win that match-up.
Oh, you're so right about that.
Maybe you're going to get yourself some revenge right there, as Zen's on the way.
Flix passed one and Seiko will get rid of it.
Not the only through line that we've got in this, Eva, Exotic and Seiko.
Zaco, both World Championship winners with Monkey Moon.
Let me throw this around.
Who is gonna come out top here,
get themselves to those grand finals?
There are a lot of World Championships on here.
You know, I'm not used to watching.
Errolisa, whoa, one, I'm not used to being in the booth.
Two, when I'm in the booth, I'm not used
to having so many World Championships
on the same field as this.
That's the privilege of watching European Rock League.
As we shot right here, oh!
That's the type of accuracy that you need to have.
He's gonna try to beat this fatality squad and now the man with the plan.
Oh, reset, that's one kill. Back up. I was gonna call someone else.
Great play by him so far in Zen.
I mean, shotgun view. Approximately 30 second mark.
Not much difference, Sidney.
Yeah, they had to make something of that previous chance on that.
You're not gonna get too many more of them as Zen.
Just look at plays with the low 50.
They're quite well counted. Chance to break away at least momentarily.
Very close to it, Stizzy, just over the top.
Almost got a block shot instead.
It's cleared out at least for now.
There's the fucking corner.
Zen's got the brace, and he's put my talenty out of reach.
That's real nice.
It's just simple from Zen.
Seiko rushes it, Stizzy kind of force the touch,
but Seiko definitely have more time right there.
At least play a 50 or something on those type of lines.
Zen, you saw him earlier in the game on the left-hand side.
Slot top right, that one just quickly off the side wall,
to the bottom left.
Octane clinic, clinical.
Zen, two goals to his name, 600 plus points in game number one.
The Vitality, probably a shutout as well.
If they can just finish off this game,
Acro says he doesn't want this quarter ball.
Three goals to nil.
End game one for a T-Vitality against Man City.
Yeah, I respect that from Acro.
But we're not winning this one.
Send us next.
Don't even go actually, Mattis.
Oh, wow.
That's a dominant Zen on 700.
Oh, he's got 764 points.
Look at that.
He just had 664.
He must have been that saved by the aim.
Must have had an epic save or something else.
He definitely just had 664.
He just steals 20 points from everybody at the very end.
What, the Zintax?
The Zintax.
I mean, he's just so good, man.
It's just what he does.
He's just so consistent.
And for this man, Chess of City squad,
I'll have to play a little bit better
and go into game number two.
I don't think they played bad, but it was just a couple
moments right here where Zin just
that opportunity to strike it
and he did hit it was right
now. Yeah, I just think that
city are going to be a lot
better with this second man
positioning right now vitality
are playing as if they are
expecting to get to the ball
next. My city happier to maybe
not dive in on those challenges
and I think that the car for to
do that against vitality who
will just be comfortable
playing offense. They're not
going to make that many
mistakes. Maybe the old
vitality maybe even the
vitality of two months ago
might have been given up for
freebies like that. But this
vitality the vitality that we
the number one team across EU and North America despite not having won an actual event.
Well well well well well.
Let's pump the brakes on the wheel collectively because the team that I would have had a number
one the Johnny boy of course was going to thumb down.
We collectively, we rate democracy, teammates thinks that Vitality is the best team across
Europe and North America.
Well, I'll tell you this, two Grand Finals back-to-back, they will be the most consistent team.
The major champions, they're nowhere near to Grand Final.
It's certainly been a difficult task for a lot of the top teams as of late.
Not the NRG last week.
Not able to stop the storm, that was Space Station Gaming, the return of Skrivels.
Now over in Europe, the major champions.
Charmix might be making it to the weekend.
Seika, not the best touch from him.
Change the path of Akro.
I don't think I've seen him above 20 boosts for the fast majority of the weekend.
Oh, what a stop, Seiko!
Oh, it's a double save!
Seiko, the magician on the goal line!
Way not done, just jet though, Shogun.
Double commit out of Manchester City, Stacey pops it up.
Right play just about two inches too close right there.
Should have expected a clear, would have been able to score.
Stacey got a little grease in.
Once again, back there in the corner edge,
because he bumps him out and opens up the door for Akron,
just throw it all the way down the field
and just give Man City some breathing room.
Sanko looking for Exotic's card, doesn't quite get it.
Now Exotic is downfield.
Good 50, brings in Zen, who's gonna have time, he's got boost, he's got ball.
He doesn't have anything else, because Akro goes to meet him.
So does he pinch as long?
Every time he ever reach me.
Sets himself up to go for the outplay.
Just instantly went from Exotic, good pace though for Makro.
Manchester City.
After the initial scare, at least doing better on the early challenges,
That was so, so lazy from Xen.
Harder for Xen to get away with that again.
That's almost dunked into the net.
Yeah, those are the moments for Man City
where he just wanted to capitalize though.
Xen's going for a reset right in front of his own.
Nate, he's getting in.
They're toeing him up, score for Xen.
If I tell him it goes right back down, Xen gets the ball again.
Nobody puts a hand up.
It's way too late for Man 3.
And at that point, it's just too much to deal with.
Stacey capitalizes right there.
And Shulken, I mean, Man City right.
about 20 seconds prior they had a chance then gave it to him and he's let it go
right. Having Zendalong is less than 12 in that second air triple attempt. No uh
nothing too fancy not gonna get the happy feet just just get rid of this
and play as quickly as possible. So he keeps trying to go for the the squishy save.
Hey, so the one that he got earlier on has I could go anywhere. Akra is
further in position and called in. He might need it again and there's these maybe
Give me opportunities, man, he's the city of Kodastar converting some.
That's the nerves right there. He knows he's playing Vitality. He knows he's in the semifinals.
And I have to assume we're playing ranked or maybe even not the same quality opponent.
Acro scores that every single time. He was right in front of him.
He's talked too much on it.
And I'm missing out.
At the wall, no opportunity for Seiko. Stizzy is up to me and him.
Just far too quick. First man challenge, getting a lot of success here.
for vitality. Here's the boss, Akro wanted it for something really bad, but now on the counterattack.
Zen lets it bounce, goes walls, tries to sit up, HV can't get to it, Akro has to.
HV now. Have to find some way out, Zen's going to be the target man downfield. Can't find
Zac as kind instead, get them out. Nobody else, that player is going to be so in trouble,
Ziko can't get off on it! Too much. And it's into the path of Stizzy.
It's just too much. Zen takes ballcam off right here.
Hunts the demo, gets one.
This leaves Seiko back alone.
entry's got to give him some help right there.
I don't know how though.
Maybe get him out with a little bit of moves or something.
Just to get, just to get Seiko a little bit of a chance.
Man, it's all, all stars one Zen.
He's the catalyst on that play.
She's had so much faith and exotic.
Just know, let me take out one.
Force out the 1v1.
Instead, he's going to come and collect it.
He's the garbage man at the moment.
Two goals to his name.
But yeah, he doesn't have to do too much though.
Yeah, but he's arriving for the shift at the moment, he's doing his job.
That's right.
Having?
I like the word that you said there, that you trust it.
I don't think that's a word that you can use to describe Vitality a lot at the time.
Sometimes they can sort of, you know, not necessarily believe that they're going shove-as-backs.
This is the most safe I've seen from a Vitality team, to have each other covered for a misplay
play an out-flight or just to play as quickly as possible to help Manchester City have had
no answers so far in the semifinal.
Yeah, it's his lazy touches like that from Seiko.
He got a fortunate demo while hungry and that's what I know for you, mid to get that.
But then the ball just kind of escapes him and it's the perfect hit for Xanax.
Oh, he comes in quickly.
And by Tyler, there's really love in this play at the moment.
It looks like the game plan, get the ball into the corner, slow it down, that's the
my place super tight it is a soon have faith that trust in your teammate that
the boss could have scored out right in front of you some might be there to
follow put that into the perfect softening and place a contend with as
acrobat a bad position for him so he could couple get bumped does very well
just gets rid of it at least for now but 30 seconds there we go that's gonna be
dropped down just nothing and it's not even about the mansion city aren't
scoring in these positions, they're not even really testing Vitality's defense.
Yeah, you're 100% correct.
Akko right there, he gets it by one pops it off the back,
but he's kind of dropped that down to his teammate.
Vitality got two in that, ten seconds left.
And the Man City can't get touched in as long,
it doesn't look like they're going to be able to.
They're still going to be held scoreless two games in a row.
Five goals total to Vitality in the first two games.
Zero to Man City.
It is not looking good so far, Shogun.
I said we got to start on this.
It does sometimes take Man City 10, 12 minutes of very, very dry Rocket League.
It's happened to them again.
Harvest has to come for them at some point.
Right now, they are staring down the barrel of a very good tournament result.
But it's not a great one.
It's not the one that they want to have that announces them.
That top tier of European Rocket League.
We know teams like Jarmades, we know teams like Casey, we, you know, no, no, no, no,
they're back in our minds that my talent, you can win an event, Manchester City.
They want to add themselves to those names.
It's not happening right now, Hans.
I mean, when you start here for Manchester City, what's got to change first?
I, I, they have to utilize each other.
High five, I say this every single time.
When these teams, they're at this grade at this level, everybody in Super Town, they're
You're talking about 2400, 2500, 2600 MMR.
I think Zenz even hit 2700 for him, and maybe not,
so maybe a couple of people hit 27, I think.
So everybody can do everything.
So it's just the little details in the game.
Even in that one moment, with about a minute left,
Acro got by, got by when he popped the ball off the wall.
You have two in that for Vitality.
If nobody's going for the demo, he's
got to drop that down.
That's a simple shot.
It's never going to work.
Zenz has got to catch the ball, like he did,
and bring the ball all the way back down the field.
That's what the great teams do.
They're not gonna be fazed by you to shoot a right at them.
You have to create, you have to be unpredictable.
You have to utilize one another.
That's how you win.
So that's why I'd be telling that if I'm a no at the moment,
just start utilizing each other, trust one another,
and give yourself a chance.
You'll be scored zero so far, so something's gotta change.
It's not like half chances aren't there for them.
Vitality have not been utterly unharmed
by positions and situations.
But it's just that Manchester City
almost seemed surprised when those chances
fall in their laps.
30 seconds before the timeout is over.
And as you can see, Vitality, I'm not entirely
sure if many of these words spoken
have actually been game related.
There seem to be-
Yeah, they're calm.
Pretty relaxed, all smiles.
Ready to get back to work.
I mean, Heversaxe was a great coach.
Speaking of Copenhagen back in 2024,
He's also coached KC, he's coached, and now he's coached by Tau, and he's coached all three of the big French organizations in Rocket League, so that just shows you, that's a testament to how great of a Rockley mind he is.
Now, coached in Rocket League, the greatest in the game in Zen, trying to bring him back to that level that he wants to be at.
They're looking good so far. Made all the way to the major final in Boston.
Trying to make it to the first EU Open Number 4 final of this road to Paris.
And I already have two games to nail against Man City.
It would be Vitality's first regional Grand Final.
They've made a major Grand Final, they so skip the step here.
But they've only gone as far as a semi-final so far right now. That looks poised to change.
of the play record is they go for another bump no he comes off steady bumps
out say go and all three from my town he just getting involved they should be
creativity right there zed starts it leaves it's busy comes pops it up I
already with the intention that I'm going to get this ball to exotic how do
I put it in a place where exotic can do something with the kind no he's with me
that type of decision-making makes all the difference that's what man city
That's what they should be trying to replicate, trying to duplicate.
That first goal after the timeout really hurts Manchester City.
It's still recoverable, the series is not gone yet.
But it's quickly starting to get that way. They need something, they need a goal.
The exact same as what they did to their opponents in Team Synergy in the previous rounds.
When three games in a row without conceding, are they about to have the same things done to them?
Stizzy, uh-huh. Seiko's on the way. Good block, Akro.
Pops onto the side. What a run from Hatch.
And now he's on the chase.
Just nothing is working out here for Manchester City.
He has an exotic ass a lot from himself.
They've done a lot with the wiggle room. Seiko backboard.
Double hit on a block.
Sorry there. What a car rotation.
That was sensational. Exotic jumped so early for that.
He had already arrowed his car and climbed back,
predicting where Sanko's going to the ball.
It is simply cleared away.
Look dangerous.
It was given 20-21 in point Sanko.
And Hedgby just no nonsense, no perfect sweep here.
Let's get on the move.
Finally, somebody was ready for a play.
Exotic.
Just wanted to try and force the 50,
but couldn't get himself in front of the ball.
Hedgby has got Manchester City on the board.
12 and a half minutes into this semifinal.
But it's a lifeline.
And it's one that they needed because the reverse sweep has been frequent and we've seen plenty of them this season.
Not going to want to have to try and force that for Seiko. Pass one.
Round chase forward. Exotic's going to take as much time as he can possibly take.
Reset. Bounce over the top of that crow.
Edgeby. Oh, it just pumps Exotic into the ball.
He's got a little bit of time and he's going to take an awful lot of time.
Pass to Exotic. Is that going to work? Oh, it's a little bit wide.
The idea is there though, he just got a little bit,
as he recognizes that he doesn't have to rush.
At this level, when everybody's moving so fast,
kinda just get sped up,
but for him to even just know
that he has the time to do what it said,
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Oh, oh, I've been talking about the reset,
that I was about to like it,
but there's some players,
where does the fireball greatness,
it's right here.
Woo hoo hoo!
That's how you score!
It's absolutely ridiculous.
Manchester City, they thought they had something going that way.
And Zen did not have any of it!
It's now up by two!
Manchester City, one step forward,
and then they are thrown back!
That's the momentum shift from Zen.
Manchester City, Edgeby scored about a minute ago.
Zen said, hold on, I'm taking all momentum away.
You're not going to challenge me.
not going to challenge me.
And then run up the kickoff, a beautiful play.
This is a drop down fast right this teammate.
He knows where he's going to be.
And just two goals, the better now, now or a vitality.
A little pop shot there by Akrow.
But it just felt like maybe Man City, maybe
they can't just establish themselves
in this series show, good.
Then the great one happened.
He does what he does.
The difference is that vitality are allowed to slow up.
Manchester City have to go up to play this entire series as fast as possible
Because my talent you are getting into their final third and just hitting the brakes
And it's working
As exotic fakes the initial challenge. I've heard does have some options goes musty that might be what is up boost?
Oh, that's just so unfortunate
Couldn't go himself back about the ball
Like the Zen has got the breakaway just under too much remaining two goals is the difference
And by Tati going back corner barry
back on a barrier in D. I knew I knew it. If I was being on this European broadcast you were trying to say back on a barrier at least once.
I can't! Hold on right there at all! Hold on now!
Well there's backboard Akro. Yeah, with a barrier. It's sort of Akro on this one and he's going to drag his team back into the position to contend for this game.
That's nice. You're right there, Showgun. See what they can do off the kickoff.
Nothing too special. Actually goes right to Edgeby. Here we go. Some pressure from Man City.
Afro giving this team a lifeline. Definitely would have occurred for them to score.
At that point, not just have to be down by two going into a minute. Down by one is way different.
You can completely approach the game differently. Edgeby gets a reset right here, but so far,
So far, Matt said he's definitely played game number 3 better than they have 2 to 1st 2.
I just gotta see if they can eat glass.
Oh, Stizzy's looking to try and outplay everybody, Acro.
Scoops them all out of the nets.
They're not the best follow-up, but nobody really knows how to deal with it.
Like now, Seiko, who has been kept very quiet.
He's been phenomenal for Manchester City throughout his entire tournament,
but throughout their series, hasn't had too much to say.
Besides, Seiko has one, but no lower boost.
It's a very low boost for everybody.
Edby's finally got a little bit.
Ah, I'm not anymore.
Here we go right here.
Away from Zen.
Oh, and there was a fake.
It was a fake.
You weren't exotted to have it.
I caught Edby for Acro.
Acro goes both corners, Stitzy!
The stop gap just refuses to let that ball go past him.
Edby's very low.
Seiko might be a passing option.
It's just a nothing ball there for Macro and they haven't run out of time.
It is all on this final play. It's all on HB, so don't get bumped.
Oh, dear me. Just couldn't do anything about it.
And team vitality are going to have one, two, three, four match points.
Zingers does it all again all the way down on the left-hand side.
No one's going to get the bump. No one wants the bump. How do I get by the ball?
He just does it. Easy tap there for exotic.
And every single time Man City look like they have a chance,
this young man's then just takes away from him.
They're going to be going off the map for right now.
And coming off of game number seven,
I'll just back the more out of this series.
There still is a chance, but they
risked out the run the numbers.
I don't know when the last time we'd
seen a reverse sweep at seven.
They've been successful.
Wait, no.
Ain't no retreat that last week.
Yeah, I'm just like, this is the end of it.
This has been the wait season for it.
I think you know what you did that last weekend.
I can't remember half the time in this game.
We're going to pad out the worst time as well to get asked about the series is after just casting it.
Leif's going to ask you once the sword's done, so what do you think happened in this game?
You know, I actually do not know about that.
Oh, the title we're on the desk?
Yeah, casting to the desk.
Very, very difficult right now for vitality.
I mean, what could possibly be difficult?
This tournament has been an email for them at this point.
Looking good for our Friday looking good yesterday looking fantastic so far today
Then I think I mean we might get them a shower this keeps going because they might be needed at their desk a lot sooner than they're expecting
They'll be ready. They'll be ready. I
Think they're looking pretty good after that Jorius. He was so animated after he went down the series
I think that gave them the energy they needed man. Just said they're gonna need some energy right now. They're better than this
They are not a team
That should be getting swept by Vitality. We saw it on Friday. They went over to game five with Vitality
And he had the chance to win that match. So we noted and they can compete. He just had to go out here and show a championship
Sunday and know
There's different level that these great players bring. Great players such as Xayah, Xayah, etc.
But when you got an entry coming in hot, like that, you always got a chance.
Yes, this is just handed that over to Senko, who decided to go from the most direct route over to his teammates.
I'm going to go for the second one, Akro, it's going to go into his car, chooses instead
to go for the setup.
Seiko can you create anything from that position, no exotic, low boost and also low worries.
Good challenge, Seiko's on very little.
He's got time, ceiling, he's used everything.
And he's got himself over there, but this has been a consistent problem here for Manchester City.
He's getting stuck here, low boost, and they've not been able to find that way out of this position more often than not.
The difference is, in this game though, Shogun, for the first time in our series, they're up.
So we finally get to see Manchester City play with a lead. We haven't got the experience of that at all.
So, so far, I just think it might favor him because Seiko was pretty tough.
That was almost a fail.
That was almost a not top ten moment.
That would have been a sad moment too, if that ball went to back net.
Instead of those Seiko, it's on that great gentleman squad that was really good
at toning the Wengo leads.
I just felt like a lot of Seiko teams are really talented at that.
So, Manchester City might be in the best spot so far.
I don't need exactly that.
They want to at least send this to game five.
We're taking it one step at a time right now.
Zeng, let's get rid of anybby.
Sturzy, he really wants this ceiling flight.
Is he gonna get it?
He comes down awkwardly for absolutely everybody.
Zeng's on the way. He's very low on boosts.
This is now a chance to maybe catch them out.
Sturzy goes back north.
And goes very far away.
Fakes the first challenge.
Tries to make life easier for his teammate,
but it has also given the territory to Vitality.
Oh, there's one bomb and now he's gonna put it behind the goalkeeper.
It was just that simple.
Yeah, I mean, that's just a Xen'Ore right there.
That's the respect.
Edgeby has so much faith that Xen's gonna do something special right here.
Look at him.
He's expecting the mid-pass.
He's expecting Xen to just go quickly.
And Xen doesn't need to do anything.
He doesn't need to do anything at all.
Just wait for Edgeby to make a mistake.
That's exactly what happens.
My Towing is a-tying it up right here.
The leaders did not last long enough and saw them in the last game as well.
Manchester City got one, Vitality did not linger for too long to get something back.
Great play.
Backboard, oh what a strike!
It's good.
Akro off the backboard is just guaranteed.
That's an actually nasty play, Akro, safe home season.
He's just real nice in the sky right there, so fast too.
You don't really see that many double touches like that these days, so people usually are just there to clean that up off the back wall.
There's speed, that much power, and you see there's a delight in Acro. There's two times in the series so far, he's got Exotic trying to match him.
Off the corner, off the post, then tries to follow Exotic back to Stizzy, Stizzy up top.
Then there's their safe away, it's right there to shut the door.
As the series of Utopia starts to speed up, it's Stizzy on the way.
Adelaide made the point of two already this series. Also the number one play coming into today from our top five
Passed an acro, backboard double
Gotta find everybody, he's now needed in defense
Orange backboard, maybe the second place that he would like to be right now
Just thinking show that ball is not in the net, edge B's all towards
Top, he's recovered that so nicely from the position he was in
Acro
Against exotic, now against Zen, fake challenge takes the 100 boost
leaves it for Stizzy, now back to Zen, almost got dumped.
That's how it is, you can't afford to get too hyperactive with the way they play.
If that ball is loose, we're restoring a couple occasions where they've almost had
a dunk goes directly into the net.
It's like a way to fake out the initial hit, nobody falling for it.
He's in up so early right here to meet it.
And just to say, he definitely started to slow down.
He had a little bit of a flurry as Acro gets a demo.
We're a little bit in the midway point this game, but ever since Akron scored that double touch,
the Manchester City they've stabilised, and it's all by Towing now, where are they gonna do?
As we get closer and closer to that minute mark left in the match,
there's gotta be another Zen banger, there's gotta be another exotic follow-up.
What does my Towing have in the bag in order to tie this game up?
This guy gets the far corner, Stizzy, believes it, pulls that
Early challenge in a not-bought time here for Stizzy.
Seiko's trying to catch him.
That is how you make life easy for Edby.
Just go!
And now Edby can't control the ball.
Double commit, though, over in the corner.
Seiko again. There's no one there who's going to commit to it.
But now he's in a bit of danger.
Needs Akra to help out.
And all of that touch, it feels past to Stizzy!
And Go keeps it!
To a one goal lead!
And matches the City have gone away with one!
These people, they all need to start hitting the shooting packs.
I saw in the last series what the case he said.
Stizzy, how the heck is the net that wide open
and you only shoot right down the pipe line?
You got the left post, you got the right post.
Shoot it into the corners.
20 seconds.
Edgebeam does not make contact.
Saker's all the way back.
Akra pops in.
In comes Exotic.
Good 50 win.
Demos as well.
Sands look at the keeper behind them.
And Stizzy will do the rest of it.
His basic and that shot was way more
besides another one.
And Zick, way, way more difficult too.
That's a top left corner.
He doesn't need it, because he's just eradicated
the whole entire Manchester City defense.
Two to a P-Show gun.
14 seconds left in record time.
I think they were trying to play for a back left.
Lost to HB, but didn't quite get it to come off.
So next goal is absolutely necessary now
for Manchester City.
Off the wall.
Well, send go for it.
It's awkward.
It's over to Ashby, back forward, in comes Seiko, who doesn't get there in time, and we've got overtime!
There's Stammer kickoff above these squads.
They didn't want to risk too much right here, Vitality, of course.
This is match point.
Manchester State is trying to extend this series, trying not to get swept.
They did push this series all the way to five, just two days ago.
If you're just two and in, if you didn't watch the RCS Friday stream.
So they're definitely better than this. They're trying to show the world that they are better than this.
And all it takes is one game and just getting stabbed for football, game momentum.
Oh, HB. Oh, there's just no teammate over there, the miscommunication.
Exotic.
There's Seiko over next to him. And again, it's a miscommunication.
I think that's something they want in the ground pitch.
I'm just coming through.
Third man from Manchester City, always in danger of being turned into scrappy.
I've been right there, Acro.
Skipped over the life of his car.
For the passing play, it's been caught in.
Going into the corner.
We've got to create too much from here.
Acro, realized he's not going to win that race.
Zeku's been dusted for plenty of time for Manchester City to control that blow
and control it.
They did not, so vitality can start the setup.
Zeku right here.
Stabilizing his skis.
Nice good pop right.
50 as well.
reason oh no way no way wow acro has to be in a meeting cuz Zim was looking for
another worldie she's on the prowl as well by touty they're starting to
establish themselves in this blue half what can Manchester City do to slow down
HB with exotic crew always just saved for the car very rarely does he seem to
go for the ball drop down Zang up to the air acro has to go HB wait for the
backboard HB now player off the ceiling no real passing options for him so he's
He's going to have to go by himself.
He's almost two minutes into this OT.
Zenz can now go a second shot at this.
How many more of these will Manchester City get away with?
That was his third time.
With plenty of time on the boost and the ball.
He's not even in for anything, because Stizzy's got the brace.
And he's sent Manchester City out of the tournament.
They're stuck on defensive for too long.
Seiko jumps late.
Stizzy comes in so quickly right there.
Makes up for it.
His earlier foreshot.
Who would have wrote from Stizzy?
I want to call him the sanitation engineer for that series because he was always the man who came and cleaned up the mess.
Floored my team by Tauti and they're on a burner right now, Shogun. They're looking so good and they're so poised.
And usually these Zen teams, as of late, it seems like he's been forced to do so much play faster than even he needs to play for this team.
They're so consistent and they're peers and they're looking so good. Zen's comfortable and the team's looking real solid.
that's very impressive. Yeah that is. By far the most confident I have seen Vitality in each other throughout the entire time that this roster has been together and you can say that actually for a lot of Stizzy teams where I think it takes teams a little while to to get used to him but now Vitality looked like they are used to him.
They've got themselves their second Grand Finals in a row.
They lost the last one to generate.
They had one event in an awful long time
and they have lost their last three Grand Finals in a row.
But something, T-Bates,
is going to have to break in that Grand Final
because even if they're going to win one,
Osiris is going to win a regional in South America,
North America and Europe.
Do not want to be missing the Grand Finals.
Hey, the plumber is fixing that burst pipe.
We should be all set.
Good thing you protected 24-7 with your home-in-automundle
from Progressive.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I'm just trying to figure out the right caption
to post about these.
Maybe something like,
I have protection, just need a lifeguard.
What about that emoji with a shocked face?
Or maybe flooded with emotion.
That's too much.
Try, uh, Tuesdays are crazy.
You know, technically, you don't have to post it.
You can't do that.
You know, technically, you don't have to post everything that happens online.
I don't really believe you. Life is meaningless with that affirmation. Am I right?
Every day, Michelin innovates to move the world forward on the road and far beyond.
Michelin, Motion for Life.
I'm gonna shame your heart
I'll take you as a compliment
My mind ain't even shut enough
I can be your weapon
I like when I'm dry
When I feel so engrossed
They say I'm a red flag
Cause they want it so bad
You see now, I'm on and on and on
She's a red flag
When they say I'm a shaker
I take it as a compliment
The
Grand Finals is on it's way.
As we just watched our last semi finals here in the open number four for the European region
that's Manchester City journey has come to an end and team Vitality goes through to play
ninjas and bejamas in just a little bit on a leaf and Shogun and T-Bates joined me for
our last desk here to get hyped up for the grand finals team Vitality ninjas and bejamas
the last match T-Bates T Vitality looking real good.
Yeah, man, they're looking real good.
He talked about it me and shogi did it
Shit, they just there's comfortable shogun right up something what you have it. I mean
Just how consistent and how calm they are. Yeah, where was last time we saw this much follow-up to Zen's place
How many times do we see Zen?
Being willing to be that committed as well to his teammates. It has sort of been a two-way street at times where
He almost doesn't believe that his teammates are going to get in that place
So he's already in the back corner waiting to try and get a save. Is that right now?
I mean exotic's playing some of the best rock league he has in a long time. Stizzy looks like he's really fitting in. Zen
All right, that's all I have to really say for that one
That city were outclassed in this semi-final and there's no shame in that because this vitality is a class above
I mean any deaders on form I think I think Zen might need to stay on the octane. I know he's real good on the finish
I know it's more champion on the finish, but this multiple times let me look at this right here
This is just sensational
I didn't know what worse I put to that when I was on the mic right there
Okay, it's just so good.
Reminded me of the Dando moment
where he just got to challenge the great ones.
And it's a shame, because we're not gonna see Zenz
almost go on this game from the highlights.
Pull off the side there.
Off the side with the reset,
that wasn't going to go top right.
Obviously not, that didn't go right.
So, it is really consistent at the moment.
And they're so close, and they're playing so tight.
And this is the hard team to beat.
Really hard team to beat.
Yeah, I'm liking this because I continue
to be validated in my Zen Goat statement.
They look so great.
Yeah, yeah, Joe, hey, Bates, where are you standing on that?
Zen the goat?
Yeah.
He's got to do a little bit more than that, but OK.
No, no, a lot more than that.
We'll get there, we'll get there.
Here's the points right now, though, on the season, as,
yeah, this really shifts things up.
I mean, you look at Vitality closing in that gap there,
Shoggy.
Yeah, I mean, they're not only closing in that gap,
should they win the grand finals coming up next,
they would then be tied with Gennamades
the top team in Europe. We
would have to have the top
team in Europe. We would have
to have the top team on 59
points each. That would put
Casey down into third, and we
would have one point between
the top three teams in the
region. It is, uh, it's all to
play for right now and seem by
Talisman looking to try to
style himself as the top team
in Europe. I'll be honest. You
know, based off what we just
saw there, I wouldn't be
surprised if that's the case by
good and I know ninjas and pajamas on the other side were also looking good. They got
a system now. I just do wonder how they stand up against this Vitality Bates because I just
feel like there's so much strength behind them.
Well the difference between Vitality and Carmine Corp is in my estimation exotic. The reason
he's so, he's highly touted amongst everybody in Rock League but specifically amongst the
fresh community is that he's a very clinical player. He doesn't do necessarily what the
Zems and Atos and Vateros can do but when he's given opportunities, he's gonna finish them and ninjas and pajamas
They should be taking their lucky stars that for every reason Carmine Corp could not score the ball within the last minute when they have plenty of
Opportunities for my inclination is that if I tell these then those positions, which I mean they run a lot of them against Manchester City
They're gonna be able to finish those moments. So
NIP better be ready. I think they're definitely a little more locked in let's start talking about it right now Shogun
We've got our grand finals to the last best of seven for our championship Sunday only one can walk away a winner ninjas of pajamas and team
Vitality both of these teams. I am not surprised to see here show
No, I mean they have been the standout performers throughout this entire weekend ever since we got start on Friday
We have some wild results going on. Obviously got the GK as your gentle mates
Not necessarily performing up to standards, but NIP vitality through the upper bracket did exactly what they've got to do this entire way
the team. But the other
players are still in the
league. Uh, Jarius looking to
try and add yet another
accolade to his time. But
there is one player on this
Nip team that everyone's got to
be looking at and is CR an
opportunity for three different
regional victories in three
different regions. South
America, North America and
Europe. And of course they're
not going to do it. We're
plan. That was on the line too, but between him and rise, I believe, and it didn't come
to fruition. So see here would be something else. Let us know what you think chat last
progressive fan vote for this weekend is up. I should take an IP or hashtag VIT who's going
to take it here. But yeah, I, I don't know this while they look good and they have a
system now and I'd like to see this a close series. Debates. Do you think that system
they had follows through because, as you mentioned before,
if K-Corps score some of those goals,
we might see a different team here.
Well, yeah, that's just one game, though.
I'm talking about game seven, where K-Corps should have
probably been able to finish a couple of their opportunities.
Regardless, the series still went to game seven,
which means NIP had to still perform
to push a Carmine court ball with that extent
to the point where they started missing some shots.
So NIP, I mean, they've been playing well.
I think they've been playing really consistent, rock league.
I think they are improving.
I believe in an interview earlier with you,
Lee, your ears are talking about how they are implementing
a system now.
Yeah.
And I think that's really good for them.
Yeah, no, absolutely.
I mean, he talked about it before that it was just,
it was kind of vibes.
They're like, we just wanted a good team atmosphere,
which I think is an important foundation to have, of course.
And we've seen a few teams scrap by on vibes before,
but eventually you need something consistent.
You need something that's going to continue to bring you
results of a similar caliber every single tournament
that you enter into.
And I'm glad that they have something for them now.
This is the real test.
This is Grand Final.
This is the most pressure you're gonna get chogan.
This is where that system will crumble if it's going to.
Right now, I think, if they're gonna find a way
to win this though, they've got to deal
with the Vitality First Man challenges.
Manchester City had nothing for it.
Usually when you are challenging First Man,
you're just trying to get the play started
before it's actually overly comfortable.
But for Vitality, especially exotic when he was sent,
they're not just forcing the plate.
are winning the ball out right. That's very very rare especially at this level of the game. So if NIP
do not have the challenge game or cannot outpace that first man challenge,
then that's already the first hurdle going very much against them. So then I'm going to come into
this one as a as the favorite side I don't think but I mean so so much is it going to be you know
Sierra, Mr. Worldwide himself or are we going to see Vitality finally break the curse?
Yes.
Great question.
How about we answer that because it's our turn for predictions now and you know what
Bates?
You seem to know what I'm doing all the time, who am I going for?
Shirley, you're going for NIP now because you've been gassing them up.
You've tried to rank them so high multiple times in the power ranking and we kept saying
no.
We kept denying you and you are being validated so far as we can by having NIP making it always
the grand final.
So Shirley, you would go with NIP.
I would say that could be accurate and I like the logic, but you've also missed me whispering Zen code Zen code this whole weekend long. I gotta go back.
I'm back then. I'm back in the hole.
Change my pink just a spitely. Thanks. Am I really that? Yes, they have it.
Yes, you are. You guys.
I'm going to get that one.
They're all going to go and get it.
And if I tell you to get up there,
four grand finals.
Listener.
Oh, that feels really harsh to say.
Hey, one in a row.
Okay.
Before the road for RLCS grand finals.
Oh, well, no, just that's not going to happen.
Get me by towel.
He looked too consistent.
This is too great at the moment.
He's looked comfortable.
It's going to be a great set.
But at the end of the day,
by Tau, you're on top.
Yeah.
No, either way, I'd love to see that.
Yeah, I'd love to see her make it.
But hey, I just hope we get a good match up here chat really following on that by tally
Let's see what happens grand finals under European open at number four
It's a best of seven only one team can walk away the champion ninjas in pajamas
Look in to do it over team vitality. Let's find out the one final give a rocket lake who wins
to win their first EU open since 2024, but Johnny Boy, as known as the Game 1 brought
you by progressive, Ninjas in pyjamas will not be simple.
Not at all. Ninjas are anything but simple. I don't think they make the game simple for
themselves. Far less their opponents. This is going to be interesting. Will it be CRR,
the three-time regional champion for three different regions? I actually want more regions
that book. It's crazy that Europe's the one that he's still looking for. His original region,
Arzen back on top. I wouldn't mind either. I really don't know which one I want to see more.
I'd love to see them both at some point this close. Well, speaking of Sam, it's nice to be
watching this one and be true mutual because I do not mind who takes one either, so all we can do is
sit back and enjoy hopefully seven games of quick, fire, rocket league. We've already seen some chaos
from the injured in pyjamas. The vitality looking as clean as we see the playing mums.
Even when they got to the Grand Finals before at the Major,
and they're keeping that beautiful gameplay start in the Grand Final here.
The joyous is getting beaten to the punch here, getting dusted by a mile actually, so easy early
goal for exotic. The only danger there is that you get shot really high on the open net, so it
looks like you might look across far awkwardly. However, it did not, so it's going to be vitality
with the early advantage, Jorias getting left all under the back there. He didn't want to
run away and have to do something to defend him.
Well Zen was incredible in that semi-finals of course. Dizzy there makes sort of a mistake
there on the back wall and then he's not exposed away. It could be one of the three of us.
Oh it's CRR. The man going for the unusual trifecta, the first of his kind if you can
get it. Or almost gets the equalising goal there for Ninjas and Pajamas and Jorias keeps
the attack going. It's the minute into this one. Already huge scoring chances and the
goal is a quick fire series. And it's been interesting to see this NIP team in their
nearly built structure that Jory is talking about in the interview. He's then faking.
So I call him again, it's a back and on the goal line. How is he making these saves all day?
He's been in the grand final as well. Incredible that remotely great block read of the fake
from Zed as well. Then he gets another one from there already in the save staff.
That's a shot there for McDoft, he's going to keep the attack going again.
These other jumpers couldn't quite take their own opportunity.
Seems like the decent thing defensively up to now only gets it.
Backflips towards CRR.
I love that idea from early.
USCRR wasn't founded, it's risky and it's scary.
But when the demo comes in, you regret it.
Is he surely?
Oh!
Did he have a playbam?
It worked.
Well, since he didn't know where the defender's going to spawn,
so he's getting gassing here,
And when Jory is doing small to the right side to make the save,
Stizzy just baits him, so really good free plays in there.
Good idea.
By Stizzy at the end.
But it's a good play-ins for my Zalty that recalls the front of his R1 IP.
Could be that one-thread back for R1 IP from the kickoff.
Stizzy goes in.
This is the hero defensively.
Jory is trying to get a swipe on Zed as he was coming out.
And see the mentality.
I mean, they were scoring early goals in their semi-final against Manchester City.
Manchester City never really got a chance to settle.
is looking so far that they are doing the same against Linsen and Pajamas there.
This is something we've been waiting to see for years now.
It's been consistent by Talty ever since they won Worlds.
Years ago, they have not been consistent.
They've made finals.
They've had the occasional weekend really.
Have a good run.
They're fresh off the back of their most successful land in ages.
And now looking to back it off with a regional win,
which would feel incredibly special for these guys.
So many people doubted after the first event didn't go according to plan
But they've just gotten better and better every event this season
I did improve in the hallway. Yes, they have spring in CR all the way to the post. It's got his Jorias and they're refusing to be shaken off
It's interesting that was quite a telegraph didn't go past but no one is ready for it
Those Dizzy and Zen kind of looking at the looking at them all they're not worrying about the mid option
Well, they dealt with the aftermath pretty poorly as well, but it's a double commit.
So yeah, it's a fast mistake, it happened very quickly, but I tell you they're double
commit positionally and then also both diving at the same stage.
Dennis Spultz and the Macklew wants to go into end, only's in front of him, then here
is able to catch the ball and almost flicks it forwards towards the ninja, the child that's
net only once again. It's a big save. A bit more simple and structured, but he said he
had to make it now that his team are within one goal of coming back against Team Vitality.
Something Manchester City were never able to do. Can't feel a couple of goals down.
As he takes this, he's ends behind him, exotic, encroaching forwards as well. Vitality, look,
he's placed one on the front foot. Wanted to build up on the momentum, they've just sent
themselves to win their first grand final in what feels like the FEC effort. They've been
And there are there abouts, you know, the amount of semi-finals Vitality have made, but it seems that every time they make a grand final,
Casey are there waiting for them, not this time.
And even when it's not Casey, they just, they, they always seem to fall at a random hurdle.
But this is a chance for them to put all that behind them.
Oh Vitality, giving up to make a play on the pole, there it is, going to be Stacey's, but he gets demoed, nice demo there by Oli.
Just jumping to cut the corner.
Final minute of game one, Vitality scored two, FFB scored one right after, then we fit a bit of a lull in the middle of this towards the end of this game.
Sierra lets that full roll over it, and into the pyjamas I've still got time to really push things forwards.
He's actually all to your armor corner. Jury is tackled in Zen, clear as long as he doesn't have a boost to make up for that one, but Zen, the next touch.
Oh dear.
He's actually clean for Stizzy, I think, especially with Zen taking out the defender.
And Team Vitality, who most recently lost to Gentleman at the major, are looking at another moment to say mistake again, at least based on game one.
I mean, big mistake there by all of you, as he tries to boom the ball, and he just censures it for Vitality.
the game, but. That was going
to be enough to do the
pajamas. They have to get this
ball into the back of the net
immediately if they're to stand
a chance in game number one,
the vitality will win their
game in a row today.
We must be questioning, you
know, they're coming up against
Manchester City who played
the game in the first half of
the season.
They're going to have to
get the ball into the back of
the net immediately if they're
to stand the chance in game
number one.
The vitality will win their
game in a row today.
Manchester City who played some games recently, they be hot enough in the final day and they
were straight away and they are pushing forwards with that momentum.
Yeah, they're looking good by Talsy, capitalizes some mistakes from NIP and they've just done
enough of the other end as well to make it comfortable, very comfortable game overall.
NIP did have a segment in the middle of the game where they looked like they were starting to get
they're hacked together but they give us a bit too much to do. You have personal, I mean,
it's just not as enjoyable as my old joys, didn't want to do someone be too deep, thanks to
you, he just dives but you had no chance to make it into that. And then the almost respawned genius
save he fixed our joys to guarantee the second goal and then he had only a bit. Good play at one end
and bad play to the other, that's really good to story, I believe.
And then, in general, you can't have the good with that about you.
You have to have both with this team, you have to have both with this roster.
At least getting more consistent, there still are those strange moments within them.
I think all of the Injun and Pyjamas do, they seem to be a team of players on the transition right now
between the sort of tiers of player.
Jorias can flip up between the two as well, but certainly the quality
in this games in the German squad to break through team vitality here as we head over to Forbidden Temple.
Team vitality though, that's five game wins that have rung so far and then their winning games come to play as well.
They are, they're doing their job now and they have to step up. They have shown that they've got the peak ability today to contend with anyone in the world.
They've already taken down, most of us consider an S tier team in KC. That's out here at that same level so...
The ultimate consistency. Can NAP produce consistency in the grand fight?
CRR is coming forwards, but he's gonna hit the zone goal.
They show he was pinching that one away. Jory's up against Zen here.
He's starting to second game another bet, having a lot of ball control.
Jory's got a chance here that will get soon. It does.
He slams it in! Oh! Oh!
Then he slams onto the crossbar.
He gets by talent to the way they play.
Now you have to pick up less end misses, but that then is covered by Stizzy.
Well, well, well, we have Chorias slamming the crossbar and then Zenn missing the ball.
Goes unpunished with his teammate, covering him, and both teams starting off game 2 a little bit wrong.
You know he's spooked the crossbar as well! What is happening?
We put Magnus in that crossbar, somebody killing him, but Paul is being attracted to it every time it's struck there by ninja and pajamas.
Let's see if they can get the crossbar hat trick.
Jory's the system.
Only Stingham are going for it and does.
Then he gets it to the side, then he gets the bump on the CRR.
Good decision from him.
And he's a 50% exotic.
Team Vitality needs to slow this one down for a second
because they're coming forward again and again.
Only this time tries to go under.
Can't hit the crossbar if you're rolling the ball in.
But sadly for him, it's blocked.
That's a good question.
Do we get the CRR crossbar?
Do we get the trifecta, the full collection
of crossbar challenges?
That was quick succession as well.
We just had two in a matter of seconds, so let's see.
And CRR also losing one new one to the crossbar scene game.
I mean, this is the series of tri-fixes.
CRR is going for those three regional wins,
or three wins in three regions.
Team I've found has given us the last three RLCS Grand Finals
and Flip and Finn in the four.
So, you know, this is threes all over the place.
There's been three letters in Z,
and I'm sorry to say it's true.
3 players in 5 towers, 3 players in NIP, I mean we need to stop this, it's getting out of control, just under 3 minutes to go into 2.
Exhausting, keeps that one forward, still 0-0 in this one, 3 goals in it, looking unlikely in game number 2.
That's one of these players who can change that quickly, CRR, not just out of the way in Zen.
I wasn't expecting that, I think CRR meant to, a little bit awkward, but it worked out okay.
Maybe one or two nerves for the Spaniard.
CRR tries to block out Zen.
Not able to do so, so neither team are really able to string too many touches together.
We had that period of Nims and Vajavas pressure.
Since then, it's been very Eden, but Zen might change that in a heartbeat.
He goes to the side, he goes to the final point, he's going to see how exotic I'm not.
I thought that was going to fall for exotic.
Exotic was open, Sizzly would be right behind him and he could just leave it.
He was thinking that if he fakes that there's no way NID are going to see this one coming.
They're all going to play a lot of nothing and Sizzly will have a tough end.
But wrong this time, it would look like it might have been the smarter ideas to play the ball.
It's healthy looking for tricks in both games so far.
I mean, even the goal they got in the last game, I think it was from Sizzly where Joe Reyes was supporting.
I think he could have just rolled back in honestly in the middle. I do think he would have gone in maybe I'm wrong
But maybe see my town. He's starting to overplay things a little bit
Could be a sign of their confidence the way they're playing
But I'm not so sure sometimes hit the ball towards the back of the net and that's what you need to do
And the ones winning this grand final. So what do I know?
The job has come forwards. Jorrius gets it past there. He's also got to be tracking that one all the way
CRR has a decision to make it as he goes solo. Yes, he does couple touches. Dizzy tease up there
It's a little bit awkward of a brutality, but it works out in the end because Zen stays behind the ball.
They've got barely any boost, but that demo's alleviated some pressure.
Zen just half clears it. Only as far as CRR though, he's flying in front of the multi-clear Jory's path.
As Zen fifties it sideways, they're trying to keep this away from danger.
Can NIP find the balance between pressing with their attack and avoiding overextensions?
only takes control of that one, Jorias going for the ball as well, but only was able to get it quickly, Jorias does have to some food still,
Sierra, the near post, could be slightly awkward here, but that's a great excuse for him, wanted to get that 100 but couldn't do so,
it's as he leaves it towards Zen, and he underneath it, Zen gets lost by one of the Jorias, and again the ball won't go in full of vitality and now, oh!
So he gets the crossbar there, but he follows it through and gets the lead for vitality.
That's what they tried to do last time, but this time it works, it's not, it just leaves it.
And that's another educational moment for you guys watching.
If you're playing threes and you can only count one teammate in front of you, the other one's probably behind you.
So you had an easy tap in, double tap for, a double tap in, I guess, for Stizzy.
And it's just a few things.
Who are these guys that's a tap in?
So those who are watching that, it's like, whoa, check out this goal, that's a corner.
for Stizzy, just easy as, but now with fairly any time left,
NIP, I think they're probably calling Taiba at this rate.
They can't get them either half.
Zen tries to kill it, it doesn't take the risk,
it doesn't happen, and only does have a chance
to keep this ball up.
Stizzy pushes it towards the zone,
got a smartly, great drop shot skills there,
and it's 2-0 team vitality.
Really nicely done, and it's then the creator,
he created the other earlier opportunity
that the exotic didn't take and then he creates the winning goal by taking two players like
the game. Talked about this yesterday, every time he's ended the ball, he just seems like
he gets two players off the opponent's team out of the game, just all by himself. Yeah,
and if you have called a tieback, so two down, they're going to try to steady this series
before it gets completely out of control. Yeah, I mean, it's not like Vitality are blowing
them away, but they just look more likely to score in any given moment. Does that make sense?
It's not dominance in that sense on possession sense or loose sense, but you have to pick
someone who's going to, yeah, that's really, maybe that's the difference. Maybe it's the
mentality I'll take and their chances admit just aren't.
Yeah, they should have scored a couple of times. Jorias had a really good chance at
the bar, only had a good chance to hit the bar as well.
Well, I'd say I didn't in the bar which is yeah, would have been nice to see the full
Collection crossbars there. So that's a bit selfish of him not to hit the bar for content. They lost anyway. Do you know what I mean?
So just hit the bar. I know. Yeah, just hit the bar. Come on
Yeah, you you're saying that you think earlier on in game one
Stizzy big story is just to spite him. You think that you think
I do sometimes fake for no reason, just to see if you can get an extra mental win against the opponents, because, you know, Jorja is in particular a very emotional player, does admit to being tilted often, he might get tilted by that, just knowing, if you're right, it says he could have just scored it.
the game. But we're going to
see. Yeah, I think it's the
most effective and scored is
especially annoying. Um not
that I'm seeing too much tilt
from joys. I think the cross
bars unrelated. Yeah, it did
lead to the crossbar moment. I
mean, it's just done that. That
is truly 300 IQ. But we'll see
as this series goes on. What
version of Jarius we're going to
see here. I think it is again.
It's not saying I think it's a
minor reset here for ninja
had more, but the game plan, relatively speaking, seems to be working, but Team Vitality is just the
one getting the final goals, getting that final touch that's needed. It's crazy that the highest level
of our colleague, 10 years into our LCS existence, the game still comes down to who can afford hitting
the crossbar, and it is all about the fundamentals these days. It's a bit of a kickoff priority.
does lead to possession for Stizzy.
He's going to walk you off the draw, he is reset,
denied by the Dutchman.
And then Zayn is the part of the ball with the bump,
and Stizzy sorts it.
Zayn with a physical play.
Again, the decision of the difference-maker is finishing.
Stizzy turns around, quick cut, picks his spot,
and doesn't mess it up.
Only Andruy is in front of him, and still,
Stizzy was able to break right through.
And team Vitality, they're looking so well oiled for this version of themselves.
And I'd say for many years, even when winning, they've been a bit more haphazard, they've been a bit more awkward.
But this is the cleanest version of team Vitality we've seen for quite some time,
but it's the pajamas that started off in the last kickoff.
Yeah, that was just brilliant to see.
And simple again, it's not about the solo air dribble plays all the time in the last game.
It was Zen's aerial play that led to a goal this time.
It's just a smart play to sit in the ball to the corner, avoid in the challenge, avoid in the dunk,
just playing it into the open space and then making space for your teammate.
It's great to see not just the mechanics but also the strategy coming through for my talent.
They also have the mechanics side. I simply see anyone with bows from team vitality.
That's the same idea again. Their name is playing it into space,
running ahead of the ball looking for the demo.
And there's a player patented out of playing this, they're making space on the pitch for
their teammates. Alright, see Vitality. Zen down to three.
Sealing double on target, of course it is, with Zen at the end of the ball.
Walking towards it's two going the other way.
In support, Sven down on. See, Vitality are really making this difficult for NIP.
Yeah, Nip, Nip of, that has to be said at the ship, but I'm not able to do two more so far.
Apparently not to call him out too much, but only is on 8 points, so do you know what, I won't call him out, that's 4 full cuts it is made.
Fairly impossible to call him out, but it's like if you say but on the end of the sentence, you're going to kill him.
It's not to call him out, but you've got him done exactly that. Why are you putting out your single digit points? That's harsh.
Sorry mate, he's on plan now, so he has got that all important double digit.
Close as he shrugs off a cup well there.
That's a good job getting it all to safety.
This is frustrating for NIPs.
The longer this goes on, the longer it feels like they're just not going to get any mistakes
to play with.
The proper probability that is, they have to go and force an error.
They have to go and outplay.
That's not it.
Only can it really make up his mind about what he wanted to do there.
Ended up not doing a lot of anything.
Now he has 100 boosts again though.
CRR in front of them clearing a path, but it's not decisive enough once again from Oli.
It was such an excellent performance in the semi-finals.
He's definitely trailed off here against Team Vitality. Vitality are reading and giving him slightly more space,
so he can't use those challenges. He can't use those dunks.
He's found another way to break through them. Maybe it's passing.
Almost he's up CRR, but the free jump wasn't quite quick enough, and no boost again.
They've got great territory, but what are they going to do with it?
All they can do is go for a low 50. Oli follows it up with a ballstruct in their corner now.
And we know what happens if Holy goes for that 50 in their corner.
The Vitaliyol playing into the back wall there. The whole team committing to the back wall.
Sissi Nandeplex into the corner. Vitality quite comfortable in defense these days.
This is very different from the KC and IP series where both teams are playing extremely loosely
and just leaving gaps that can be exploited. They're constantly playing at the limit, racing to every ball.
Vitality they're picking their battles. They're actually leaving the ball at times just electing and I be make pointless touches
Then they're challenging when it makes more sense
Send his up against Jorias. He's also just coming in
It's only here. Oh, he landed on the ball after demoing. I saw it
He lost some momentum as he went through Zen with the demo and someone misdirected him into order system.
But the result is a goal for my talentee which should have come one touch sooner.
That's another one I see. I'm like, you know, I'm like, you know, another unnecessary crossfire.
If something gets the flick reset this time, he will be breathing a huge sigh of relief
because that's the sort of moment where the entire series can change.
change. If you miss an open net to go too big, to go too long, and then you don't lose in the game,
it's really tricky to see. Get rid of those crossbar magnets. I made the admins.
This one is of course a very good one. Really nice challenge, but it stores the challenge.
That's about as good as you can get with the challenge game. Yeah, it's all going wrong for
NIP's vitality. They're not making mistakes defensively. They've made a couple of pickups
It's an offense, but it hasn't shaken them at all.
They've just gotten right back to work.
And it doesn't look like they're going to appear comfortable
attacking into this vitality line-up,
who are very, very comfortable behind the ball.
Wow.
I mean, it's interesting because team vitality,
that they're not going hell for Lever here at all.
And I don't think they did the 75ers either.
But in the semifinal, they got three goals, two goals,
four goals, three goals.
So they consistently make the most of every opportunity they
have, and now they're starting to put up a momentum,
and they were seriously tilted down if they won the ball.
It's interesting to see this.
I mean, it's a complete difference
from the Karmicarp series,
both in terms of the results that were headed towards,
but also the way that NIP are being forced to play.
And it seemed like going into the Karmicarp game plan
was fine for NIP.
They were quite happy to play that for a random series
where it's just a constant battle
for every inch of the pitch and Vitality are saying,
you know what, we don't really care if you have that part
of the pitch, it's fine, you can have that,
but it's not gonna do anything for you.
But they're being selective with what they're taking away
from NIP and giving them pointless shots, pointless touches.
It's very different, complete 180
from kind of weak farming from clean order.
What excites me as well for Team Vitality is that
in my opinion, they're not peaking.
Individually, no Team Vitality player is peaking.
It just seems like a well-crafted version of themselves.
It seems that everybody knows what their job is
and their role is on the pitch at any given moment.
And they're winning, that they're winning so, so much.
They're winning so, so comfortably as well.
This is very replicable for Team Vitality in future opens,
and assuming they make it majors and wants.
Yeah, I totally agree with those.
Vitality are not picking this far more in attack.
We've seen some highlights, of course,
But they can definitely, and I'm sure they will play better than this, but right now they don't have to, they're just going through the motions, and it turns out that that's more than enough to take that NFP's new strategy that they've been working on, and Jory has decided intelligently not to share with us during his interview earlier, yet not working against mentality, they're going to need to switch up in this matchup it seems.
They're taking every second they can, they're readying up as is their right names and pyjamas.
This is sort of the new tactical time out.
There is nothing left.
They will need a reverse sweep against Team Vitality that are playing pure rocket league
right now.
They're playing it very, very well.
It's not like NIP are getting main plate all right either.
Like we saw Vitality, it's NRG, the major NRG just go completely faked out by the fact
that they're up against Zen.
They think he's doing more than he actually is.
But that's not what's happening to ZenI-V here.
They just look like their strategy doesn't work.
They're going to need to change something.
Will it be more physicality?
Will it be more team play?
Will it be more solo play?
Will it be maybe just a more measured approach
and sitting more back?
Look at this one.
5,000.
That is perfect.
And that is unreal.
Chicked up one way across to Zen, who nails the shot.
Team Vitality led as always by Zen are starting to believe a team of not one and RLCS have been since May 2024
since then they've lost three Grand Finals and they lost the Flip and Spin Grand Finals
looking like this could finally be the one this could finally be the moment they get back on top of EU and who knows what else
The Insipajama serve this one, but that is a disastrous start for them, Stizzy though.
It's a great talk.
And he's going back to his goal.
Sierra behind him.
Only has 20 flightboots while he did, but he's then removed that and his card from the pitch.
And exotic is dusting all the lit players.
They have to just survive the next 30 seconds.
If one more goal goes in, it's over in my opinion.
This is the necessary, crucial moment of the match.
If there's going to be any sniff of a comeback, it surely has to score the next goal.
They're out muscling them, they're beating them with the physical game.
They're beating them with the regular game as well.
It seems like NIP don't have anything that they can go to.
They do try to demo, they're just missing the key hits on the ball.
They're missing the key hits on the cars.
It's never, you know, they're not landing the shots at the right time,
they're not landing the demos at the right time.
Vitality, on the other hand, they are doing exactly that.
So the only way Nick can take this series, take a game,
is if one of them peeks, if one player steps up individually,
because of the team, they're not looking quite as good as Team Vitality.
The Zen wheels round, wants to make this series up,
one V1 is going to try to get a double, but almost there.
Exhaust is going to keep it going,
Zendr on the corner, Srirara is hyped with no boost yet again.
Two Vitality have all the cards and they are playing them well.
I mean, who would have thought it's Zendr the Octane playing as a Demo Maid that wins
at RLCS Regional. Not the year-long Fennec effort that he was going through,
where he's playing some of the cleanest Rocket League. No, it's the dirty tactic Zend.
I absolutely love it. I'm looking at different aspects of his game, but maybe, although he's pretty good at it, maybe that was the missing part.
But he's still got the mechanics. He goes to the ceiling of Utopia Coliseum.
We've seen this before. I was getting excited for a second. I was about to bust out my Aussie accent.
The Sandysen couldn't quite put that one away. This time it's exotic. I forget slowly.
There he goes OX, this is already up, Nip needs something and they need it soon, but Vitality as well as scoring all the goals, they're defending so well, Zeko has the fucking jury as a ready and put himself in the way.
That's good defence, but that's all NIP have been able to do this game. All they're clear is they're just going straight to Vitality's third man and then an Irrigable is coming back at them.
it's never gonna be easy if you have to play this much on the back foot against
vitality against players like Zen. That's a good demo. That's not what
the ZZ saw coming in and I always go shot but it's straight to Zen. It ends up being a pass to Zen who's on the ceiling.
He's going for it! He passed it! No, no, actually it strikes! Got it! He gets to steal the goal light!
Oh dear. Well played Zen though. Love that. Love me, see you on the tag as well.
I'm like, Zed, no! You've done this before! We don't need to see it again, alright? I'm getting this one.
What a steal! That was last pixel. As the ball was about to cross the line.
This big challenge, there's any... Give this to Zed, he's an easier job.
Just imagine, like...
Kirikin, Kirikin, there's a tiny bit of Zed that's a bit annoyed.
He's just going to tune it up in a grand final, not on an open event in two years.
He's just called that call. He's like, oh, come on! Any problem?
No, I don't think so. Will he hold a grudge and steal Exotic's next good goal? Absolutely, you know who he will.
He's going to be on the go line, waiting for Exotic to hit the clip of his life, just to then take it away from him.
On the side, he has to be only to the ball and does, so there's still danger here from Ninja Limba Jammers, but not over yet.
See, my talent here, I've got to hold out from the victory lap for a little while, but the more Zem gets the ball,
The less likely it is that the into the pajamas will come back into this one exotic wave dashes them to his right
What's to get the booze can't quite do it Jorrius? It's in the way
It says he goes to the ceiling. We're running out of time hit into the pajamas Johnny. They have to get something going very soon
They do but unfortunately for them this is felt as much of a victory lap as the world championship win
You took your Coliseum game where Zen is just in flow state and he could do it every once with the Rocker League ball
and there's nothing that anyone could do about it.
He's completely taken over this game and NAB are rapidly running out of time to go back with it.
Jarius tries to launch something, we're in last row of the nice territory.
Zero with the wave, Dutch hits the side, opposite, I like the idea, but again the clear and something exotic
goes almost all the way back down to the other side.
Nick will have to start again and make it happen now.
It's a good try challenge.
Biting Stacey, XI with a little 50, he does get bumped off the ball.
He's going to think about going up to the ceiling for this one.
Zed brings it down and confarks the win with no more time
remaining for NIP to work with.
So it's going to be another near miss for CRR.
No third regional win for him, NIP, for the second night
in the season.
Finished second place.
And Vitality are back on top.
And look at what it means.
It has been a while for Team Vitality, but they have their moment against.
Bizzy has his moment.
Alongside him, it's been the cleanest EU Open win I can remember in some time.
Normally when a team wins like this, they're scoring brilliant goals,
they're getting ceiling pinches and all sorts,
but there wasn't too much of that from Team Vitality.
They were just a better team.
They've been the better team in the semi-final and now the grand final,
make it look quite easy. Keep me looking smooth. A clean tournament win. And that is something
that Team Vitality will hope they can replicate again and again throughout this season and perhaps
feel. Yeah, they look fantastic. The only question that remains for Vitality is how will they go when
they play against Gensel Mates when they play against Carmen Corp next. But if this series is
anything to go by, I mean, they just bodied the team that eliminated KC7. So that's a big, big
difference. Now granted the play styles were worlds apart. Vitality seemed like they have a much better
game plan against NIP than ArmyCorp did today. But yeah, we still have some questions for Vitality
that we'll hopefully have answered in the future regionals. For now though, they are deserved winners.
We did it in style with the kickoff strat in the beginning and closing out with relative ease at
Yeah, when I say they're not peeking individually, I mean by their standards, because obviously
there's still some beautiful goals, but yeah, that was an excellent EUR for taking the opportunity
and there is still some time to chat with Lee and the gang over on the desk.
Vitality, what about there, Nailee?
Yeah, I mean, I think you know what I think about them, but, you know, what do these guys think about them?
They're looking good.
I don't believe that guy's like me.
I tricked you.
I got you good.
good. It's just a prank, bro. Calm down. We, we, uh, Bates, I think what you say, you know, they
need a, uh, a comfortable win here in it. And that was, uh, that was a comfortable win Bates for
a freaking fight. Oh, it was extremely comfortable. It's just what they do at this point. They're,
they're, they're looking just so solid. It's very few mistakes. Zin just looks comfortable. And when
when he is, he's putting up 600 points a game.
It feels like every single match.
And that's so hard to do at the highest level.
He's not just doing by saving the ball.
He's doing it off the ball as well.
He's so, yes, and he's everywhere.
He's everywhere in the exotic stages.
They're playing their part
and they're doing it at an extremely high level.
It's great when by them first then winning two years.
Two years.
Yeah, it's taking a while.
A long time.
I mean, that is,
the exotics cost so much better as well.
that. I mean, I mean, I mean,
I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean,
there was a lot of people
questioning sort of the decision
was then to stick along with
exotic when people were saying
it's a copy of our options out
there, but exotics really
justified himself over the last
few weeks, especially since
that major he's playing great
Rock League. I mean, and Stizzy.
I don't know if Stizzy knows
what like it's supposed to be
nervous about certain place.
Just goes better work. I got
this. It's fine. I'm gonna turn
that fear they're going to be aggressive they're going to be making your opponents keep up with
with their pace and uh and that's what a player like Sizi does once he he clicked into that flow
and yeah i think you said it too Shogya a good point there is that um is that exotic as well
has been looking phenomenal he's clearly been put in the work here and i guess that's something
that Zen just believed in i mean he said it before he he's likes playing with him uh and it's good
to also have uh i got you like playing with playing good as well so overall Shogya i just it was all
all three players putting in that word.
So I want to get your take on this one, T-Bates.
Is this the frequent thing that we're going to see
from Vitality, or is this a, well, you didn't run into
KC and Gentlemates performance from them.
What should Gage in this one?
To me, I think it's what we're going to see.
They made that Grand Final up to Austin,
they made our way to Grand Final here,
and they won it, and they handled it.
It's not their fault that KC couldn't get the job done.
KC lost it in the NIP squad.
They lost in seven, I touted them dropping game.
And it's not like, you know,
if you got any worse in that moment,
they only played what an hour and a half before that?
It's just that they're looking so consistent.
I mean, look at what they're doing.
They're coming off the field.
Too easily as well.
That ridiculous bet.
They were playing so good this weekend.
And so it's just like, it's just tough.
It's tough to say that they could play worse.
Yeah, they look so good.
Rock solid all around again, all three players.
We're only talking to one right now and it's,
It's, again, what I would say is the goat himself.
It's Zann, man, congratulations.
You look so good out there.
Thank you.
I think he's hooked on Booth.
Yeah.
I mean, Booth was just saying that, too.
He might be switching over to Octane.
He wants to see you on that for some time now.
You think that's it?
That's all it was, like, you see him switch over.
I will see.
Yeah, fair enough.
Hey, I want to talk about that.
All three you guys looking so good out on the field there.
Every single one of you making the right moves.
Was there something in your routine
that you guys maybe changed outside the game
that allowed for this?
Or what's that?
What's that difference maker
that made sure you're all on peak?
Honestly, just we talk a lot between each other.
I think we have a good staff behind us.
Also, after the major, I take vacation
And I didn't take it since four years maybe.
And yeah, it was difficult after the major
because I was stuck in Dubai.
So we didn't scream until since two months, I think.
Two weeks, sorry.
And yeah, no, I've.
And yeah, after I came back and we just grind the game,
even with the boat, it's hard, but we're still grinding.
And yeah, I think it paid off.
I have a good teammate, so I'm super happy right now.
Yeah, I mean, yeah, you're right.
You got good teammates.
You got to be happy.
I mean, you've not just got good teammates around you.
We also see how sort of intertwine
how close your coaches are behind you as well.
What's the vibe and what do they say to you guys,
especially when you guys are playing so well?
They're giving advice or are they just saying,
you're doing good.
Keep going.
It's a secret, I can't tell you, but we have a good staff.
You should build a show.
Yeah.
Let's go try.
Zenn, T-Bates here, one, I got three things for you, man.
One, congratulations on your win, very good, very nice to see you at the top.
Two, your English has gotten really good, man, and then three, my last question would
be how does this team compare your current team, you, Exotics, Dizzy, to your previous
iterations of itality. Y'all look so great out there.
I don't know.
Okay, I mean, listen, you don't have to say anything bad out of
the test for comparisons. I'll switch to question then. How are
you feeling right now?
Relative to other times?
No, I feel really good. I think we have a good work together.
We find the balance.
We still need to work on some mistakes.
But I think we proved that we can be a top team.
And we're going to win again and again.
We just need to produce.
Hey, Bates was just complimenting you on your English.
Bates, how's your French going?
I forget some words in French sometimes.
Oh, yeah.
I do.
We got to see how T-Bates is French is.
No, but my English is not that good again.
I need to work on it.
No, your English is great.
Your English is really good.
You're killing it.
We just got to get T-Bates speaking some French
when we go to Paris.
Hey, I want to give you the stage right now.
Zend, you know, we always do this.
You just won the Open right now.
You're the champion.
So you get to speak to the world.
The stage is yours in French, if you'd like to, as well.
OK, well, I will say in English because I think everyone
can understand.
So, first of all, I'm really happy about my team.
Like we just working hard and hard again all the time.
We do we did a good major and we still scaling, I think.
So I'm really happy and I'm proud of the monster guy.
And yeah, I think thank you for the support, too,
because I never stopped playing the game.
I don't win, I didn't win original since two years, so I'm really happy and thank you for everyone, thank you.
And there it is, round of applause Zen here, big dub on the weekend for Team Vitality, go celebrate with the squad.
Thank you so much and again Zen, congratulations.
Thank you, thank you for the casket.
Yeah, again, just a good, good all-around attitude, I think, from him base, I mean,
you see the energy with the squad, they've got good vibes going on, you got great gameplay
going on, all around it, that's a system that's working.
Yeah, it's working, and I just really, I just really love, I mean, I don't know if they
intend to, it didn't sound like they intended to have a big break, but to me, when the Achilles
Hills, all these teams, especially at this level, is that they don't take breaks.
You come up with a major, I mean, it's technically
season really is like a year-long sprain instead you got to find a way to have that break so
and then they said they couldn't scrimmage for two weeks ago so that's from February about 22nd
and so March about 15th that's about good two and a half three weeks off of playing the game
enjoying your time taking a break and coming back and they look even better you don't have to play
the game all day and in order to be great it's the little breaks in between and it looks so good
right now. I mean, Alpha took
a year and a half off. I mean,
he looked at the edge. I want to
highlight this run as well. 12
and 0 since we hit the Saturday
loose. Oh, yeah, it is games.
This entire main event once
a game ward and they lost two to
Manchester City in the actual
GSL stage. But once we hit the
top eight, this was the top one
team. They were untouchable.
swiss they only dropped one and that yes they were on quite a run it's great
brothers entire tournament I know some people don't like seeing that obviously
in comments throughout the scene I'm like oh this is boring no no no no but
you need to appreciate his greatness because if you can beat all these teams
four on four one that means that you're consistently playing good every single
match and that's why a lot of teams they need to be able to find that magic even
great teams NRG, Falcons, Falcons now even going to Mina where how do you beat
teams 4-0, how you beat them 4-1, get out of the series and show that you're doing
something really great and by telling right now they're doing something really
great. I mean do not drop one and it's been the best of seven it's not easy it's
not easy to do that at all. I want to take a look now we saw some points there
for the uh for the Paris season please. But yeah pull up the season and show it right now.
you know, I'm not sure if
you can get that 59 59 58. Oh
my goodness. It is very, very
tired. The very top of Europe
to put that into perspective as
well. North America at the very
top is 58 for energy. There's
11 point difference between
them and the second best in
Shelf fire rebellion. So
Europe really could just be
anyone's tournament any one
supported over the last two years. So you enjoy this one for as long as it lasts because
it's only going to get more difficult as the season goes along.
And they better pack. They better pack that arena then because it looks like Vitality's
back. So in Pari, I need to see a way bigger section from Vitality. They usually come out
smaller than Gentleman's and Carmen Corp. I don't want to see it. Come out with $5,000.
Show everybody what the bees are doing.
I want to see them actually supporting Vitality. They didn't get enough chances to do that
in Lyon.
I think at the beginning of
this week, it's why I've loved
the Vitality fans, man, because
even when Vitality fell out
sooner than we maybe would have
hoped there, they still they
stuck around. What they did is
they picked some teams that
picked the underdogs and kept
sharing. You know, that wasn't
casey. Yeah, anyone like that.
That's true. But overall, I love
to see it and that and that's
what you're going to get. You
know, out of Paris as well. You
know, it's going to be a good
time and it's going to be a good
time. It's going to be a good
to be a good time and it's going to be phenomenal regardless of what teams are left by those
final days there so you got to join us you got to be the energy was something I I'd
never experienced before like we sold you these lands for so long and they're always
wonderful but when it's in France it's something else I just the basic it's show again like
you got to sit I've never felt anything like that from from an audience before it was next
level just energy isn't it base that's all you want from the audience it's just pure
energy. That is what the French give us. Oh, they give us it all right. They give
us it well. Um, I don't be understanding what they're doing, but it doesn't matter.
In general, I don't really... I'm doing it. I'm having a great time seeing them having
a great time. And that's all that matters. So, Papri, I'm really, it's going to be a
special land. You know, you just got to appreciate the moment. So, you have the ability to go.
You got to get out there, man. You never know how many rocky lands we're always going to
have. So, that's it. Hey, well, we're, we've come to the end of the day here. So, uh, they're
Usually we do a final five, but we have baits on the on you broadcast your shogi
So we got to see if we have we converted him is he still what's going on?
What are the thoughts at the end of the end of the week here?
T-Bates, I mean I don't need to be converted or Shoka in touch stone
I'm already mr. Worldwide in general after listen to the NRG to after they won a world championship
I'm always picking picking who I think is the best from here on now, and I'm just keeping it real simple
It's a great region. I mean you got a lot of good competition at the top um, and it's real fun to see that
There it is. At the end of the day, we got great
Rock League and we're going to have some more next week too.
North America is going to be hitting the field and we got so
much, so many other regions playing Rock League as well.
So please just keep this tab open forever.
Why not?
Thank you guys for joining us for open number four European
or regional.
We'll see you soon.
So that we can't stay.
Caught in the gravity.
I'm gonna send the box to your break.
Can't intoxicate it, baby.
We can start it, start it, yeah.
Caught in the gravity.
I'm gonna send the box to your break.
It's time to change, baby, we can just start it, start it, yeah.
Oh, now this guy's going that way.
Now I'm getting the lay of the lamp.
Now L.A.s can be a big test for a young homeowner turning into their parents.
There's an overflow lot somewhere in the vicinity.
If the garage is full, they go to the auxiliary.
He said if the garage is full, they go to the overflow lot.
I heard him, I was right here.
Let's just stand quietly.
I bet you guys have driven some great cars, huh?
Progressive can't protect you from becoming your parents,
but we can't protect your home in honor when you bottle with us.
I think you might have brought the wrong car.
We had the red convertible.
I
I'm coming down for you
I'm coming down, coming down
But it's time to leave
Then something won't let them speak
I've so come out again, I still, I still
Couldn't ever fall off something new
Ooh, she told me to lie
If you don't mind me for who has my heart for ever?
Looking back at my feelings for what's gone
She's talking to her baby
Talking to her baby now
Talking to her baby
Talking to her baby now
I
You touch the heart of us
Is it something that could be essential?
I'm on an alphabet game
It's something I've lost on my own
I see the winner party
I'm a sensation now
Every time I dream of you, I see
