WEBVTT

00:00.000 --> 00:02.000
I

00:30.000 --> 00:32.000
We need each other

00:34.000 --> 00:36.000
That's what we need each other

00:39.000 --> 00:41.000
That's what we need each other

00:43.000 --> 00:45.000
That's what we need each other

00:47.000 --> 00:49.000
If you fall at first

00:50.000 --> 00:52.000
And don't know where you are

00:52.000 --> 00:54.000
You feel the danger

00:55.000 --> 00:57.000
Closer than your heart

00:57.000 --> 00:59.000
When the weight is getting heavy

00:59.000 --> 01:05.000
The future is unsteady Close your eyes, close your eyes

01:05.000 --> 01:14.000
Think about all the dreams you keep inside Think about all the ones you love

01:14.000 --> 01:24.000
I know there's been a fight in my gun I know that we could go in the dark

01:24.000 --> 01:28.160
When the parts are closing, we lose it

01:28.160 --> 01:30.520
Oh, I need it

01:30.520 --> 01:32.840
I need it

01:32.840 --> 01:37.400
When the time is coming, we'll go

01:37.400 --> 01:39.760
Oh, yeah, I need it

01:39.760 --> 01:41.200
I need it

01:41.200 --> 01:43.800
That's when we need it, chapter

01:43.800 --> 01:48.320
That's when we need it, chapter

01:48.320 --> 01:53.040
That's when we need it, chapter

03:23.040 --> 03:28.040
Daydream, a bike you call me lovely

03:28.040 --> 03:32.040
Got a sweet tail boot

03:32.040 --> 03:35.040
Who gonna get the sugar from you?

03:35.040 --> 03:38.040
When they say I'm on a shigure

03:38.040 --> 03:42.040
I take it as a compliment

03:42.040 --> 03:46.040
Money you show me

03:46.040 --> 03:49.040
I can be a weapon

04:53.040 --> 04:57.040
I'm taking you to come to bed

04:57.040 --> 05:01.040
When they say I'm gonna shake your heart

05:01.040 --> 05:04.040
I'm taking you to come to bed

05:04.040 --> 05:08.040
When they say you should go home

05:08.040 --> 05:11.040
I can be your weapon

06:53.040 --> 06:55.040
I

07:53.040 --> 08:22.840
Oh boy, ladies and gentlemen, we've all been waiting and now

08:22.840 --> 08:28.340
Now it's time for the World Championships here in Fort Worth, Texas, where at what some

08:28.340 --> 08:33.080
would call the Monkey Moon Arena, aka Dickies, and a whole week of rock league action is

08:33.080 --> 08:37.600
about to begin with 20 teams vying for that single crown at the end.

08:37.600 --> 08:42.520
And a chunk, of course, at that $1.2 million price pool.

08:42.520 --> 08:46.520
Welcome in, I'm Leaf, and if you've watched Rock League before, you know what I'm about

08:46.520 --> 08:47.520
to do.

08:47.520 --> 08:50.720
I'm down here getting a vibe check with all the coaches and the players throughout

08:50.720 --> 08:52.600
the entire weekend.

08:52.600 --> 08:55.000
And this entire week is something special.

08:55.000 --> 09:01.520
We've got our threes, we've got our ones, but this week, we've got twos as well.

09:01.520 --> 09:03.120
And I think we all know who's going to win that.

09:03.120 --> 09:06.760
But my job here right now is done, we've got a lot to get through, so let's send you off

09:06.760 --> 09:09.280
to the other guys and start the World Championships.

09:09.280 --> 09:15.080
We're probably, I think, one of the best teams in North America.

09:15.080 --> 09:19.560
As long as we go and do it super confident and we're not looking down on any of our

09:19.560 --> 09:21.720
opponents, I think that's what matters the most.

09:21.720 --> 09:24.760
The feeling after qualifying was the best feeling ever.

09:24.760 --> 09:26.320
We have nothing to lose.

09:26.320 --> 09:29.040
Just give it all and be confident all the time

09:29.040 --> 09:31.680
so we can do a lot of work here.

09:31.680 --> 09:34.720
For me, the Worlds, one of the biggest that there is,

09:34.720 --> 09:37.960
both in the Rocket and any sport,

09:37.960 --> 09:40.960
it doesn't depend on the confidence that we have built

09:40.960 --> 09:44.360
in the training days before the competition.

09:44.360 --> 09:45.480
I've been to a lot of worlds.

09:45.480 --> 09:46.560
I've won worlds.

09:46.560 --> 09:48.040
I haven't lost passion at all.

09:48.040 --> 09:50.120
I don't care about peeking or hitting cliffs.

09:50.120 --> 09:52.360
I just want to be like the support of teammate.

09:52.360 --> 09:54.480
I just want us to show that we can win.

09:54.480 --> 09:58.600
Last time was my first OLCS LAN victory ever.

09:58.600 --> 10:00.800
This time I'm even more used to it

10:00.800 --> 10:02.480
and more dangerous than ever.

10:02.480 --> 10:05.440
I think this whole championship is,

10:05.440 --> 10:06.400
how things is to win.

10:06.400 --> 10:09.240
I mean every professional player wants to be a world champion.

10:09.240 --> 10:12.160
I think that all I can prove that nothing is impossible.

10:12.160 --> 10:14.760
Everyone here like has the chance of winning.

10:14.760 --> 10:16.520
If there's one thing I want to prove out of the world

10:16.520 --> 10:19.560
is that the win against NRG wasn't just a fluke.

10:19.560 --> 10:20.920
You got to dream big, you know?

10:20.920 --> 10:23.480
I mean, full-time shoot means a lot.

10:23.480 --> 10:26.800
You got to put everything aside that you did wrong

10:26.800 --> 10:28.640
some of the season, during the season,

10:28.640 --> 10:31.120
and you're just going to put your best for full-time.

11:19.560 --> 11:44.480
Rocket League fans around the world, welcome to Fort Worth Texas for the 2026 Rocket League

11:44.480 --> 11:48.560
world championship. We are here for the biggest week of the

11:48.560 --> 11:51.720
Rocket League year. So much competition of the course of

11:51.720 --> 11:55.080
the last 365 days. Fun fact from a friend in my discord crew

11:55.080 --> 11:58.680
March out with you 729 days, 16 hours and 19 minutes since

11:58.680 --> 12:02.360
BDS held the trophy in this building. We are six days away

12:02.400 --> 12:04.720
from having another team place that trophy. BDS not here.

12:04.760 --> 12:06.920
So we'll be a different team this time. It's gonna be fun.

12:06.920 --> 12:08.640
We have the greatest players in the world, the greatest

12:08.640 --> 12:11.160
teams in the world and the greatest talent in the world

12:11.160 --> 12:19.440
here. Hey, you're here too. I am here. Oh, God, guys, come on. We can look at the room

12:19.440 --> 12:25.480
teammates earlier. How are you doing? Great man. Listen, it's an honor to be here once

12:25.480 --> 12:28.360
again. Third World Championship here. I think he's bringing up monkey moves come out on

12:28.360 --> 12:31.680
top two times on the road by Tom. Listen, he's trying to make it back to another World

12:31.680 --> 12:35.840
Championship grand final, but a lot of competition here is going to be good. I said, I said

12:35.840 --> 12:39.320
BDS isn't in the building, but monkey means in the building, exotics in the building,

12:39.320 --> 12:41.120
Jollies in the building, Seiko's in the building,

12:41.120 --> 12:42.040
Excher's in the building.

12:42.040 --> 12:44.600
We got so many world people that have won the trophy

12:44.600 --> 12:47.120
in this building here trying to compete to do it again.

12:47.120 --> 12:49.920
It's gonna be a fantastic week of Rocket League.

12:49.920 --> 12:51.160
If you're just now joining us,

12:51.160 --> 12:53.120
you did pick genuinely the best time

12:53.120 --> 12:54.240
to start watching Rocket League,

12:54.240 --> 12:56.320
but it's been a long road to get here, folks.

12:56.320 --> 12:58.200
All the way back, November 14th,

12:58.200 --> 12:59.660
we started this season off.

12:59.660 --> 13:02.280
We had the kickoff weekend in Copenhagen.

13:02.280 --> 13:03.280
That was fantastic.

13:03.280 --> 13:04.400
Fun that game.

13:04.400 --> 13:06.840
You're up an extra spot at this tournament.

13:06.840 --> 13:09.040
You'll see that on our list of teams

13:09.040 --> 13:11.800
a little bit later on, but we went to Boston.

13:11.800 --> 13:13.840
We went to Paris Gibbs that we've,

13:13.840 --> 13:15.640
who are the world trying to find

13:15.640 --> 13:16.800
who are the best at Rockland?

13:16.800 --> 13:17.640
Oh, absolutely.

13:17.640 --> 13:19.400
And we have the mates come out of nowhere

13:19.400 --> 13:20.600
to win the Boston Major.

13:20.600 --> 13:22.240
Three of these players, all three of them

13:22.240 --> 13:24.880
have never been to a grand finals before

13:24.880 --> 13:27.680
and they show up and put on the best offensive performance

13:27.680 --> 13:28.840
in the history of a final.

13:28.840 --> 13:31.640
Nass led the charge and the gentle mates

13:31.640 --> 13:33.520
were crown champions in Boston.

13:33.520 --> 13:35.000
Yeah, basically it took it in turns to Pete,

13:35.000 --> 13:36.000
which was quite exciting.

13:36.000 --> 13:41.200
and Oskie really making sure that he pulled his team all the way there, then Nass obviously in that grand final

13:41.200 --> 13:47.600
with the arching system all the way throughout and then in Paris, the French got it done on home soil.

13:47.600 --> 13:55.500
The blue wall were absolutely erupting in the L'Annefense arena and you know having finally that trophy lifted in front of a home crowd.

13:55.500 --> 14:02.400
It must have been an incredible moment for those boys but still obviously this one is the one that properly got their eyes set on.

14:02.400 --> 14:09.040
They are defending major champions and they have never looked better coming into a world championship.

14:09.040 --> 14:14.640
Can Karmicor get it done again? A little bit of a hiccup there in off RLCS tournaments in between.

14:14.640 --> 14:19.600
Harrison now but still you expect them to be back in form and there's more teams than ever before

14:19.600 --> 14:24.400
here competing for the title of world champion. Coming from all over the globe from Sub-Saharan

14:24.400 --> 14:29.280
Africa, from the Middle East, North Africa, from OCE, from APAC, North America send in

14:29.280 --> 14:35.400
five teams here. Just don't be Europe's got six. Oh, baby. Oh, baby. And they've won everything

14:35.400 --> 14:41.120
so far. They want to kick off. That's why they have six here. They won both majors. Yeah,

14:41.120 --> 14:45.200
they're going for the full sweep. Yeah. And I mean, it's nice to see a huge breadth of

14:45.200 --> 14:49.160
teams are here for Nina as well. They've got three teams in the world championship.

14:49.160 --> 14:52.920
Two of them are competing through our planes that we're going to be doing it today. Parking

14:52.920 --> 14:57.000
is being one of them. But I think for you, there's a lot of thanks to be O2 call

14:57.000 --> 15:03.920
You mentioned that kickoff land that they got Man City spot earlier on the previous majors and now Matthew Tapper

15:03.920 --> 15:06.280
They were then able to come through in this six spot as well

15:06.280 --> 15:11.000
But lots of very strong teams all there costable and everyone of these teams has a reason they are here

15:11.000 --> 15:16.720
They have won so much to get to this spot to have a chance to be crowned world champion

15:16.720 --> 15:22.680
And it's been a long road the road for some teams a little bit longer than others though the play in brackets

15:22.680 --> 15:25.800
somebody just said that we will play this entire bracket today for all these

15:25.800 --> 15:29.200
teams. Some of them some of their tournaments end here on Tuesday.

15:29.880 --> 15:35.040
This can be a brutal bracket. That bottom four is roughly at Falcons and foot

15:35.280 --> 15:39.720
who have looked fantastic. RAD sports and TSM down there as well. TSM they just

15:39.720 --> 15:42.640
beat NRG. So then they got bottom four is really tough.

15:42.680 --> 15:46.320
It's what the next two series basically. So I mean they get a big

15:46.320 --> 15:49.200
win against NRG but questions remain for them. You just got to peak at

15:49.200 --> 15:51.840
the right time that they also looked better in Paris than they've ever

15:51.840 --> 15:57.080
looked before. So is this the time for TSM? We'll find out today as we move forward. But

15:57.080 --> 16:01.360
it's been a it's been a long, a long road to get here for four of the teams in that

16:01.360 --> 16:06.280
plan bracket. They almost didn't make as they deployed to our last chance qualifiers. Let's

16:06.280 --> 16:09.720
let's talk about the goal. Just let me start off the day here from South America, a bit

16:09.720 --> 16:14.480
of a surprise. A roster that was formed for the L. C. Q. They picked up their third

16:14.480 --> 16:19.800
player there in May right after the conclusion of the open number six. They've been

16:19.800 --> 16:43.800
prepared for this LCQ since May. And these guys were not favorites. B.S. Plus were the favorites to win this tournament and they met in the upper round as well. B.S. Plus won that four to zero. But when it matters most in the finals when the nerves are in all time high, it's Trufino who was on a different squad throughout the season who was supposed to make every major. He failed but he picked it up at the perfect time here.

16:43.800 --> 16:46.600
It's been like a leftover squad, I think, or at least they're kind of thinking,

16:46.600 --> 16:48.680
okay, we could not get it done as a regular season.

16:48.680 --> 16:50.920
Let's see what we can do when it comes to LCKQ.

16:50.920 --> 16:53.800
A pretty neat thing we've added here for the RLCS this season.

16:53.800 --> 16:56.920
And I mean, I believe in that previous video that we saw,

16:56.920 --> 17:01.080
that Saturday night, their last LAN was once 22-23.

17:01.080 --> 17:02.360
It was back-inducing.

17:02.360 --> 17:06.040
They've not been to a LAN in such a long time.

17:06.040 --> 17:07.720
But they have World Championship experience something.

17:07.720 --> 17:09.720
That's what they've got a really green on right here.

17:09.720 --> 17:12.920
If you start this playing tournament because, I mean, they have the experience.

17:12.920 --> 17:16.360
even going against BS, but BS plus doesn't have to all that world championship experience.

17:16.360 --> 17:20.120
When it got to a game seven, back against the ball, who would have used to make the plays happen?

17:20.120 --> 17:20.960
This is when the moments happen.

17:20.960 --> 17:24.680
Gryffina pops it up high, and then after that, just another goal coming right through the net.

17:25.400 --> 17:30.600
And that's off, man. It's so big for Gryffina. He was like, he was on Furia, then he got kicked,

17:30.600 --> 17:35.080
went to Team Secret. They were supposed to be great. They weren't, but he finds a new team

17:35.080 --> 17:36.760
at the right time to make it here.

17:36.760 --> 17:39.960
Now we talked about the Falcons being here in the bracket. They are the number two seed

17:39.960 --> 17:42.200
out of mean that they did not have to play in those qualifiers.

17:42.200 --> 17:45.120
But the fact that they weren't the dominant force in the region

17:45.120 --> 17:47.320
speaks to just how strong this region is becoming.

17:47.320 --> 17:49.760
Let's talk about the Middle East, North African last chance

17:49.760 --> 17:52.760
qualifiers with R8 Esports secure the third spot.

17:52.760 --> 17:55.520
Yeah, when you have Falcons and twisted mines in your region,

17:55.520 --> 17:56.920
it's very likely you're not going to make it.

17:56.920 --> 17:59.080
But R8 Esports had a fantastic year.

17:59.080 --> 18:01.880
They made it to the Paris Major over Falcons

18:01.880 --> 18:04.680
by beating them multiple times in that split.

18:04.680 --> 18:06.000
Didn't get enough points, though,

18:06.000 --> 18:07.360
so they had to go through the LCK.

18:07.360 --> 18:10.080
They were favorites, usually favorites.

18:10.080 --> 18:12.440
They don't win this, but 2-thirds of this roster

18:12.440 --> 18:14.800
won the mean LCKQ last year,

18:14.800 --> 18:17.080
so they do it again here with that experience.

18:17.080 --> 18:18.440
Then the question for RA is,

18:18.440 --> 18:20.040
can they do what they've done online

18:20.040 --> 18:21.840
against the Falcons in particular,

18:21.840 --> 18:23.640
and then actually have that translate to LAN

18:23.640 --> 18:24.680
that they've not been able to,

18:24.680 --> 18:26.600
even though they have a little winning record

18:26.600 --> 18:28.720
against Falcons until it comes to online tournaments,

18:28.720 --> 18:29.800
when it comes to LAN,

18:29.800 --> 18:31.520
they really cannot get it over the line.

18:31.520 --> 18:33.200
And I'd love to see that really good fruition

18:33.200 --> 18:35.480
and the World Championship on the biggest stake.

18:35.480 --> 18:38.280
Last year, two of the players on this team, Abul and Ghazi,

18:38.280 --> 18:40.880
were here as the last chance qualifier from the Middle East

18:40.880 --> 18:42.020
under Rocky Sports.

18:42.020 --> 18:44.200
They have doubled up on that success.

18:44.200 --> 18:46.860
They have been joined here by Muhammad, Land of Rookie

18:46.860 --> 18:49.040
Worlds, championship rookie here.

18:49.040 --> 18:50.360
We'll see if they can get it done.

18:50.360 --> 18:52.280
The last time we saw R&D players at EWC,

18:52.280 --> 18:54.080
they had lost game seven at Carmine Corp.

18:54.080 --> 18:55.520
So they have a good loss on the left.

18:55.520 --> 18:56.880
It was almost like we were sweep two.

18:56.880 --> 18:59.160
Those guys were so close to reverse sweeping

18:59.160 --> 19:00.600
the blue wall there, folks.

19:00.600 --> 19:02.560
North America, we've got five teams,

19:02.560 --> 19:04.200
lots of exciting names to talk about.

19:04.200 --> 19:10.920
And one team that honestly, if they'd formed maybe a little bit earlier in the season Gibbs wouldn't have had to play through this lcq foot has been a right hot at the end of

19:11.360 --> 19:14.760
Yeah, absolutely. I think most people have them as the na4 seed

19:14.760 --> 19:19.760
But because they were a brand new roster sprain split they went to the Paris major didn't get enough points

19:19.840 --> 19:25.080
So they had to play the lcq and again last year none of the favorites won any lcqs

19:25.080 --> 19:30.400
But two of them won this time one of those games is foot everyone expected them to win this and they came out

19:30.400 --> 19:32.080
And we're incredibly dominant for an awesome

19:32.080 --> 19:36.880
And I think also you can look at the numbers as much as you want, but when it comes to an easily

19:36.880 --> 19:42.240
rootable ball team, I think put on near the top of that list. I think everybody wants to see these

19:42.240 --> 19:46.800
players doing well. Justin recently winning the first such award for the breakout player,

19:46.800 --> 19:53.360
he's an incredible year. Come back there. Come back player. He broke it a long time. You can

19:53.360 --> 19:57.600
see what foot I've been able to do, and yes it would have been nice to do them early in the

19:57.600 --> 20:01.600
season, but a lot of time again after all of these LCK teams to really get that.

20:01.600 --> 20:06.320
And not only that, they played another LCK, the EWC LCK with a lot more teams in it,

20:06.320 --> 20:10.160
and they won that as well, so they know how to win these smaller tournaments,

20:10.160 --> 20:12.720
where the big names are not there. They were in the group with Carmecourt

20:12.720 --> 20:15.360
and Vitality in pairs too. Everyone was like, man, that's a rough group.

20:15.360 --> 20:18.640
They took both those teams to game five. Didn't get quite the win of those,

20:18.640 --> 20:22.400
but still the impressive run from them. We'll get to see them here a little

20:22.400 --> 20:25.680
bit later on today. Last but not least, the sixth team from Europe,

20:25.680 --> 20:29.480
You know just the rich keep getting richer out here. The Europeans are already so good

20:29.480 --> 20:31.580
They got six chances don't win it here

20:31.580 --> 20:37.000
But got talking about how big of a surprise it was for my day etapa to be the team that came out of that call for those

20:37.000 --> 20:42.080
Paul for the head K-Dop pork a ball for the head of team with Eugene and rise and then Valer here also with a crispy

20:42.080 --> 20:49.120
Grally talk roster. They're all looking good and somehow it's atomic Dorito and AJG from Argentina to come out on top

20:49.120 --> 20:54.720
Yeah, we say that you know the rich get richer but AJG has got as much role to play in this a South American player

20:54.720 --> 21:01.200
And I believe that one of the first times we've seen a South American player go to Europe for a path through and then be

21:01.440 --> 21:05.460
Successful at that and I think that when you look towards here something in Dorito duo

21:05.460 --> 21:10.940
They've done this before and having a different third on their side that has been phenomenal

21:10.940 --> 21:16.080
And it's you know coming back up the level that we have seen them come to before is he really exciting

21:16.080 --> 21:18.340
They're a very exciting unique team. I feel yeah

21:18.340 --> 21:22.080
They absolutely Pete at the perfect time now can they do it again?

21:22.080 --> 21:28.700
Big that is the big question. Everyone knows that Europe has depth, but this is digging deep into the Europe on depth field

21:28.780 --> 21:32.660
So was this a one-off or was this team actually a real deal?

21:32.660 --> 21:36.960
I mean that can score against anybody. The big question for them is how is the defense gonna hold up when they go

21:36.960 --> 21:39.840
They just teams that are a little bit better than the last player right now.

21:39.840 --> 21:43.520
We go to get the thousands of someone of that level and you stop that from scoring.

21:43.520 --> 21:45.520
About the tosses, we have a really quick shout out to

21:45.920 --> 21:50.200
Tox especially unfortunately couldn't make it to a line. He got so close again

21:50.200 --> 21:54.000
But he did manage to get the win over a FIFA E. So he's got that feeling

21:54.000 --> 21:59.600
I hope that's gonna keep igniting him to eventually get to an RLCS land we believe in your talks. Well, we'll see we'll see

21:59.600 --> 22:01.600
I'm confident we'll see him again

22:01.680 --> 22:06.440
Their money top, but they do have a new on the bracket of life side of things here in the playing

22:06.440 --> 22:09.760
So we'll see if they can make it happen folks. It's been a fantastic year

22:09.760 --> 22:12.680
We've had 1v1 2v2 and 3v3 for the first time

22:12.680 --> 22:18.480
We have all three game modes in the Rockley championship series and we see spectacular moments throughout the entire time

22:18.480 --> 22:25.940
Let's wrap it up books. These are the top 10 plays of the regular season of the 2026 RLCS shout out to the RLE sports reddit

22:25.940 --> 22:29.480
They helped me compile this list and there were so many good plays that I decided to do it

22:29.480 --> 22:32.520
Just one 2v2 1 1 2 1 in all major plays after that

22:33.080 --> 22:37.440
With the most dominant tournament in RLCS history 2v2 Zenonato

22:37.480 --> 22:41.280
This is a 4-0 stop in the grand finals overtime winner

22:41.480 --> 22:46.480
That's what I was for folks unbelievable in the corner and then fancies it yet again

22:46.480 --> 22:51.040
It's gonna be the one to one versus a resist gets a tripplery

22:52.120 --> 22:59.560
Sinks it with only two seconds remaining at every angle that's that place from it's immediately a gold scoring opportunity

23:00.480 --> 23:04.020
Proof, listen, that's great all twos and once local to our CS

23:04.020 --> 23:08.760
But let's get back to the breading corner. Let's get back to the 3v3. This is all major players here on out y'all now

23:08.760 --> 23:10.760
That's reason I fight against my

23:10.760 --> 23:13.760
Looking like a no-one man, Shokin, that's exactly what he is.

23:13.760 --> 23:15.760
The Boston Major MVP going against Vitality,

23:15.760 --> 23:16.760
going off the ceiling.

23:16.760 --> 23:18.760
Here's the reason, as it has XO, it doesn't matter.

23:18.760 --> 23:20.760
I'm going to try to swat him. You're not stopping that one.

23:20.760 --> 23:23.760
And let's keep it at the Boston Major where Vitality broke the curse

23:23.760 --> 23:26.760
against K-Corpion and a lot of that is due to Zen.

23:26.760 --> 23:29.760
The pre-flip shot here to the far post.

23:29.760 --> 23:32.760
Vitality finally takes down K-Corp for the first time

23:32.760 --> 23:33.760
and it feels like 20 years.

23:33.760 --> 23:35.760
And it's a lot due to Zen.

23:35.760 --> 23:37.760
Look at this pass. Look at that pre-flip.

23:37.760 --> 23:38.760
Perfect touch.

23:38.760 --> 23:44.260
Perfectly placed and received by Townsby Peaks. Let's see a player peek against them.

23:44.260 --> 23:48.760
Just in with a lovely reception into a recent Bubs exotic. Still not done.

23:48.760 --> 23:54.760
Ends up tapping Zin on the goal on the double bump against two of the best defenders that you will come up against.

23:54.760 --> 23:58.760
Immediately gives away to a teammate as well. Night play across the board.

23:58.760 --> 24:00.760
Listen, once again I'm talking with Nascis about to pull something off.

24:00.760 --> 24:02.760
You know why? They had a lot of plays this year.

24:02.760 --> 24:05.760
Grand finals, Boston first goal to open it up. Nascis brings on with that.

24:05.760 --> 24:33.760
And then we got Kaycork, they had a miserable online split for the Paris Nager, but they show up against the Mates in the upper bracket to seal the deal at 0 on the clock, but Tiro with the catch and the flick top left corner and we all know what happened after that, they went on to dominate and win the whole thing.

24:33.760 --> 24:39.720
It's not often that you look at monkey moon and think he's gonna be the most mechanical player in a lobby and yet in this series

24:39.720 --> 24:44.400
He was against the mace the side corner skin boss back to new boat

24:44.400 --> 24:49.920
He sent it to him initially a little cheeky bit a tech attacker right back into the danger zone

24:49.920 --> 24:55.400
No, no sixer. Oh, listen. I come at the number two is one of the best plays of the season and your is just those of the

24:55.400 --> 24:58.400
Fido guess who see our he's working. He's waiting bouncing off the ceiling

24:59.600 --> 25:03.640
There's something in the water in Boston or maybe it was just something to freeze it could be all stuck there

25:03.640 --> 25:09.280
But everybody was popping off yours with those up on zero so quick as in our G these most out of the atomic

25:09.280 --> 25:13.000
Dusty zero slanted in and we'll keep it at the boss the major for the final play

25:13.000 --> 25:15.960
And I think I'm just a little hungry and Oscar was team. He's gonna go up here

25:16.160 --> 25:18.640
He's gonna get the job into the pancake

25:20.680 --> 25:26.380
This is champions field semi-final versus Falcons and he gets the job

25:26.380 --> 25:35.040
I mean when you think about it there was a blizzard so it makes sense everybody had the ice

25:35.040 --> 25:38.520
Boston. I like that. This one guys. It's gonna be a

25:38.520 --> 25:41.600
costume. I know that's why I saw your guys. Congratulations.

25:41.600 --> 25:43.700
I appreciate you guys not being like, oh, there's a girl's

25:43.700 --> 25:47.720
pun. No, I like that. That's why you paint. Thank you. No,

25:47.720 --> 25:52.480
keep saying. Yeah, yeah. Not time for a compliment. Enough of

25:52.480 --> 25:54.920
the compliments. Let's talk to you about how this tournament

25:54.920 --> 25:57.000
is going to work because there's three stages to the

25:57.000 --> 25:58.680
tournament. We have the play in that we showed you

25:58.680 --> 26:00.720
earlier. We're gonna show it to you again here really,

26:00.720 --> 26:03.120
really quickly. And then after that, we'll talk about

26:03.120 --> 26:19.120
about the group stage. Then we'll talk about the plan bragging new math rotation as well. Here are a few maps that are making their world championship debut. Shout outs to sovereign heights future garden night is in the rotation there map and manfield dusk for map number one bit.

26:19.120 --> 26:28.120
I know that's a different type of map. I kind of see him in a way. I was going to say I've seen the theme of it starts in dusk. And then you guys back up a little.

26:28.120 --> 26:30.660
I mean, the big thing is, no DMH for the first time

26:30.660 --> 26:32.900
in a world championship, that's going to be different.

26:32.900 --> 26:33.840
That's a different tale.

26:33.840 --> 26:36.680
But it also shows that we really do have truly seven maps

26:36.680 --> 26:39.100
that we always put in rotation, mix them all in,

26:39.100 --> 26:40.640
and then it's let bygones be bound.

26:40.640 --> 26:42.880
Yeah, but those little gold knees at the end,

26:42.880 --> 26:44.160
those are the two most important maps.

26:44.160 --> 26:45.920
Neo Tokyo and Champions Field,

26:45.920 --> 26:47.360
those were the big moments.

26:47.360 --> 26:50.040
Yeah, the iconic moments of the good or bad.

26:50.040 --> 26:51.840
Neo Tokyo's seen plenty in Champions Field

26:51.840 --> 26:52.680
right at the end.

26:52.680 --> 26:54.880
You need to have those big, loud announcers

26:54.880 --> 26:56.680
letting you know who lifts the trophy.

26:56.680 --> 26:57.640
That's going to be a big one, folks.

26:57.640 --> 27:00.520
All right, we want to play those maps throughout the entirety of today.

27:00.520 --> 27:04.280
Well, we want to play the first, uh, first three in the back two, I believe.

27:04.280 --> 27:06.040
Because we're playing best of fives here in the playing.

27:06.040 --> 27:07.520
Correct. No, New York, Tokyo.

27:07.920 --> 27:09.160
No, New York, Tokyo.

27:09.160 --> 27:10.080
The first two.

27:10.080 --> 27:11.280
I see.

27:11.280 --> 27:11.680
Okay.

27:11.680 --> 27:12.040
Okay.

27:12.440 --> 27:13.400
Here's the plan bracket.

27:13.400 --> 27:16.680
If you make it out of this bracket, it's the top four teams, the two teams

27:16.680 --> 27:18.720
from the top side, two teams from the bottom side.

27:18.720 --> 27:21.360
That puts you into pool number three.

27:21.360 --> 27:21.800
Gibbs.

27:21.800 --> 27:22.760
Oh, yeah.

27:22.760 --> 27:24.040
What is the pool number?

27:24.040 --> 27:25.120
We're talking pools.

27:25.120 --> 27:26.280
We don't know what the groups are.

27:26.280 --> 27:30.920
yet for the main event, the only thing we know are the top four seeds are locked into their groups.

27:30.920 --> 27:35.640
You see it on the board there, K Corp just minds energy and the mates will be in those groups.

27:35.640 --> 27:40.520
After that, it comes down to we don't want that many regional matchups in groups.

27:40.520 --> 27:46.600
Okay. So depending on who comes out of the LCQ, we'll determine how these teams go into these other pools.

27:46.600 --> 27:51.800
But everyone is pool one and seed five through eight basically. Pool two is then nine through 12.

27:51.800 --> 27:55.320
Pool three are the four winners from here. So the bottom four seeds.

27:55.320 --> 27:58.320
So they will all be in one of these groups.

27:58.320 --> 27:59.960
We just don't know where yet.

27:59.960 --> 28:02.280
And the reason for that is, say like energy,

28:02.280 --> 28:05.680
like if two North American teams come out of the South C.Q.,

28:05.680 --> 28:06.680
we have five total.

28:06.680 --> 28:09.040
That means one of the groups will have to have

28:09.040 --> 28:10.400
two North American teams.

28:10.400 --> 28:12.040
So then energy, there is a possibility

28:12.040 --> 28:14.200
that space station will be in their group.

28:14.200 --> 28:16.360
But if only one team comes out,

28:16.360 --> 28:18.480
space station cannot be an energy's group

28:18.480 --> 28:20.400
because we don't want regional matchups.

28:20.400 --> 28:22.240
So that's kind of how it goes down.

28:22.240 --> 28:25.160
We will know the groups at the end of today, though.

28:25.160 --> 28:32.320
So, okay, everyone will know so the first determiner is seeding the second term with the qualifier of as long as you're not

28:32.320 --> 28:36.280
The same region space. Yeah, okay. Okay. That sounds like fun. It's a world championship

28:36.280 --> 28:39.280
We want more international matchups. I like pools. I like swimming. So I'm up for this

28:43.120 --> 28:47.440
That's fine every time I look at Wave 2 his eyes kind of glaze over when I talk about how I'm at

28:47.440 --> 28:52.760
I'm pain. I'm pain is much attention. That was a bad student. So I mean, I was listening

28:52.760 --> 28:55.260
and when I really need to think about something,

28:55.260 --> 28:57.760
I'm just going to look at you and get to know them.

28:57.760 --> 28:58.760
That's awesome.

28:58.760 --> 28:59.760
That's awesome.

28:59.760 --> 29:00.760
Let's be honest.

29:00.760 --> 29:01.960
Of all the formats we've ever run,

29:01.960 --> 29:03.960
this is by far not the most complicated.

29:03.960 --> 29:06.060
So I'm excited to show you guys those groups

29:06.060 --> 29:07.360
at the end of today.

29:07.360 --> 29:08.760
Once we have those groups set,

29:08.760 --> 29:10.760
that will set us up for our playoffs,

29:10.760 --> 29:13.360
which will be played on Saturday and Sunday, folks.

29:13.360 --> 29:15.560
If you are the top seed out of your group,

29:15.560 --> 29:17.660
you go through to the upper bracket.

29:17.660 --> 29:19.560
You have two lives in this playoffs.

29:19.560 --> 29:21.360
If you are the second seed and the third seed out

29:21.360 --> 29:23.220
of your groups go to the lower side of the bracket.

29:23.220 --> 29:25.280
Only one life remaining in the tournament.

29:25.280 --> 29:26.960
If you're the bottom seed, you are eliminated

29:26.960 --> 29:28.680
from the 2026 Rockland World Championship.

29:28.680 --> 29:31.200
Yeah, that one seed is incredibly important.

29:31.200 --> 29:34.880
You have two lives to have a chance to make it to the top four.

29:34.880 --> 29:37.360
But if you don't finish first, you then

29:37.360 --> 29:40.640
have to win three matches in a row to get to top four.

29:40.640 --> 29:45.080
So it is a drastic difference from first to everyone else

29:45.080 --> 29:46.080
in your group.

29:46.080 --> 29:47.280
Just the same for the money.

29:47.280 --> 29:52.880
You look at the first place in this 300,000 dollars for first place.

29:52.880 --> 29:57.360
If you take that, you take home a tidy 100 grand, and you get 2,000 each.

29:57.360 --> 30:00.600
Even if you don't score a single goal, you just show up, plug your controller in,

30:00.600 --> 30:03.480
and then go home at the end of today, ultimately.

30:03.480 --> 30:07.920
So, all across the board, a lot of these players will be very happy with the amount of money that they've got.

30:07.920 --> 30:10.720
But, Wave, I wish they could earn a bit more.

30:10.720 --> 30:12.440
You wish that this prize pool could be bigger?

30:12.440 --> 30:14.320
I... I... I... Ideally.

30:14.320 --> 30:14.800
Yes? Yeah?

30:14.800 --> 30:16.560
I wish that it would be more...

30:16.560 --> 30:18.600
I agree with you. I wish it could be bigger. And you know what?

30:18.900 --> 30:22.740
It can be bigger. Thanks to you, the lovely people in the Rockley community,

30:22.900 --> 30:27.540
the world championship bundles in the shop now by that bundle.

30:27.540 --> 30:31.140
100% of net profits goes to this dry school.

30:31.280 --> 30:35.240
100% all of it going straight to the teams to increase the price.

30:35.240 --> 30:37.420
Cool. And check out the things you get. Check out these wheels.

30:37.420 --> 30:41.080
Check out the stick out. It also has a boost and a goal explosion gives

30:41.480 --> 30:44.920
very solid. And there's percentage breakdowns for player accolades as well.

30:44.920 --> 30:48.200
So if you perform better than you get a little bit more of that pot,

30:48.240 --> 30:51.920
there will be MVPs as well that we give out for finals MVP,

30:51.920 --> 30:54.960
for tournament MVP, and then for breakthrough player.

30:55.120 --> 30:57.760
So a lot on the line throughout the weekend.

30:57.960 --> 30:58.960
It's so generous.

30:59.080 --> 31:01.040
I know that that that decals got free speed in it.

31:01.040 --> 31:01.960
I'm pretty confident.

31:01.960 --> 31:04.240
Pretty sure you drive a little bit faster, a little bit more accurate

31:04.240 --> 31:04.920
if you use the decal.

31:04.920 --> 31:06.920
Just saying, not, not allegedly not official.

31:06.960 --> 31:10.280
That's just my, my personal anecdotal experience with that decal.

31:10.320 --> 31:12.520
Okay, folks, if you want to contribute to the prize pool,

31:12.520 --> 31:15.680
One of the best things you can do for our tournament here.

31:15.680 --> 31:19.080
Okay, we have a few things remaining to do

31:19.080 --> 31:20.280
before we get into the match.

31:20.280 --> 31:22.040
Mainly to talk about the brackets

31:22.040 --> 31:24.280
and how things are going to work on this stream.

31:24.280 --> 31:26.040
We have two different streams happening.

31:26.040 --> 31:28.640
There's also some watch parties going on.

31:28.640 --> 31:30.880
Just pretty fun for everybody involved.

31:30.880 --> 31:34.320
And speaking of which, if you want to be at the event

31:34.320 --> 31:35.840
here, but you couldn't make it,

31:35.840 --> 31:37.960
AMC Theaters is going to be having

31:37.960 --> 31:40.080
the World Championship running this week.

31:40.080 --> 31:46.440
Stand the QR code find a theater near you. You could be in a building with rocket league fans cheering on the world championship

31:46.440 --> 31:50.300
And there's not many times when you go to a movie theater and you're allowed to be loud

31:51.140 --> 31:54.320
You're in enchanted for your team. So that would be a lot of fun

31:54.320 --> 31:56.800
I would see a lot of pictures of people in their jerseys

31:56.800 --> 32:00.840
They meet up with other analogy fans, whatever it is. I'd be so cool to see on socials

32:00.840 --> 32:02.840
Well, and you scripted this whole thing. So it's basically a movie

32:02.840 --> 32:03.340
Exactly

32:03.340 --> 32:04.340
Yeah, for sure

32:04.340 --> 32:05.340
But we don't tell anyone that

32:05.340 --> 32:08.340
We literally told them that every single of them. I don't know what he's talking about

32:08.340 --> 32:11.440
Alright, now let's talk about the two broadcasts that are going to be happening here folks

32:11.440 --> 32:15.980
We are going to have two streams happening to alternate stream at twitch.tv slash RLE sports

32:15.980 --> 32:19.940
We'll be covering four matches today kicking things off with five fears versus about the etapa

32:19.940 --> 32:22.760
I'll have already supports and TSM as well

32:22.760 --> 32:26.860
Make sure you got both broadcasts. We want to catch all the action. I think it's the first three days

32:26.940 --> 32:31.020
I believe you have these things going on here on the mainstream. Hi. Hello

32:31.020 --> 32:34.280
You hear my sound my voice you are in the right place for these matches

32:34.280 --> 32:37.280
and we will have the remainder of the bracket after the first four matches.

32:37.280 --> 32:40.520
All the matches for our play in today will be on the mainstream

32:40.520 --> 32:42.680
and we will complete that play in bracket here today.

32:42.680 --> 32:43.600
We'll see Falcons vs.

32:43.600 --> 32:47.120
Footy Sports in a little bit, but to kick things off, the gorgeous

32:47.120 --> 32:50.240
coming out of the South American region going up against

32:50.240 --> 32:50.880
Vertus Bros.

32:50.880 --> 32:53.640
The NA four versus the South American LCK team.

32:53.640 --> 32:57.440
We were talking about the South Americans here, all Brazilian,

32:57.760 --> 32:58.520
all excited to be here.

32:58.520 --> 33:01.560
All have played at the World Championship before, but it's been a while,

33:01.600 --> 33:02.600
especially for two.

33:02.600 --> 33:06.200
Yeah, I think that, you know, there's a lot of experience that can come through from

33:06.760 --> 33:13.200
the GoJs in particular, but VP, they've been such an exciting team coming into this entire tournament throughout the season.

33:13.200 --> 33:18.160
So far, I think Wavy has been a massive breakthrough player, but I feel like he's really coming into his own.

33:18.360 --> 33:20.240
He's doing really well across that content as well.

33:20.240 --> 33:22.040
It really feels like it's been his year.

33:22.040 --> 33:27.320
So hopefully they don't end up stumbling when it comes to actually being able to compete at the World Championship.

33:28.560 --> 33:29.800
It's going to be a juicy matchup.

33:29.800 --> 33:36.360
It's very hard to tell who's gonna take it. Both teams have been hot like at different times and let's see who peaks today

33:36.480 --> 33:42.600
They have earned the opportunity of kicking off the 2026 Rockley World Championship. Let's meet the good things

33:45.640 --> 33:51.760
The roads to come here to the World Championship was tough for us. We were not the favorites

33:52.880 --> 33:55.000
We were confident coming into it

33:56.120 --> 33:58.280
My last lamb was in Leon

33:58.280 --> 34:06.760
Bams, that is my other teammate, his last LAN was Dusseldorf, then 23 and Knight, my other

34:06.760 --> 34:11.080
teammate last LAN was Dusseldorf, then 23 too.

34:11.080 --> 34:15.960
We have the experience and we are confident that we can do a lot of work here.

34:15.960 --> 34:20.920
The pressure playing insecure is much bigger than playing original, because if you lose

34:20.920 --> 34:25.240
your season is over, we've trapped a lot in these two maps.

34:25.240 --> 34:30.000
Like the cough dance and the mantle I think was the key for us to qualify

34:30.600 --> 34:36.520
Prodifying third was the best thing possible. The team is trying to prove that the region is good again

34:36.920 --> 34:42.560
For myself. I want to prove that I have the level still so I want to show everyone that I still have

34:46.000 --> 34:49.640
Well, we can't get enough of them let's keep talking to Truffinio here from the coaches

34:49.960 --> 34:52.600
Dude you look so excited. You can smile in this whole time

34:52.600 --> 34:56.900
Yeah, I'm so excited to be back two majors without coming to the land. So

34:57.560 --> 35:00.580
Being back in the world championship. It's a pleasure

35:01.020 --> 35:06.260
It's got to do just feel any like nerve-racking at all like you know having to go through the plans because obviously you guys have a

35:06.260 --> 35:09.780
Lot more matches to play than some of the other teams. I think it's fun

35:09.780 --> 35:17.080
I think for us is good to have this like momentum because like they are two years without going to a land

35:17.080 --> 35:19.080
And I'm one here. So playing

35:19.080 --> 35:24.080
The games is good for us again. Momentum. A lot of extra practice in there. Now I want to talk about the new

35:24.080 --> 35:29.080
because just for a second here. What did you say it meant to get? Mustache. Mustache. Where did that come from?

35:29.080 --> 35:35.080
I don't know. They created it. I'm just joined the party. Okay. Well, I'm kind of disappointed. You guys don't have like nice long

35:35.080 --> 35:41.080
curly mustache. Only they both have it. You got to hurry up by the MMI, right?

35:41.080 --> 35:46.080
Yeah. By the time you get to the grand finals on Championship Sunday. Yeah, I might need to.

35:46.080 --> 35:50.820
I love it. Hey, we'll talk about your teammates here. I mean, what did you see in these guys bring them together?

35:50.820 --> 35:55.500
Obviously, you guys have connected really well and you're feeling good coming into it. What was it about these two?

35:55.500 --> 35:59.760
I think they are two players that have such a great experience in the game. So

36:00.360 --> 36:02.360
LCK is a nerve-wracking

36:02.680 --> 36:05.900
Matches to play in so you need to have this experience to

36:06.160 --> 36:11.720
Try it and do your best. So I think that's why I chose them because they are two of my friends

36:11.720 --> 36:15.000
They and they have a good experience in the game. That's awesome man

36:15.000 --> 36:18.900
I love your energy, but I'm gonna let you go get back to you got a mashup play in a second here

36:18.900 --> 36:21.160
In the meantime, we're gonna take a look at your opponents. I

36:22.400 --> 36:27.940
Think our year from the start we started out very strong. We just formed as a team as redacted

36:28.000 --> 36:33.100
We're probably I think one of the best teams in North America. We unfortunately had a

36:33.840 --> 36:37.480
Kind of bit of fall down after split two now going into worlds

36:37.480 --> 36:41.500
We feel the best we've ever felt after all our practice and everything we've done as a team

36:41.500 --> 36:43.500
So we're really excited

36:43.500 --> 36:48.340
We knew, no matter what, actually this time's going to come and we're going to have to be

36:48.340 --> 36:52.820
the best we can be because Worlds is everything at the end of the season.

36:52.820 --> 36:57.220
My dream has always been to play in front of a crowd and to be some leading memory.

36:57.220 --> 36:59.540
Also, I haven't played in front of an LCS crowd yet.

36:59.540 --> 37:03.900
That's our main first goal, but after we get that we want to obviously make it into

37:03.900 --> 37:07.100
as far as we can go.

37:07.100 --> 37:12.220
What it means to me, I think it's definitely by far the most important tournament of the

37:12.220 --> 37:13.220
year.

37:13.220 --> 37:16.340
like this is everything, like this is what you want to get to.

37:16.340 --> 37:21.180
Well, I'm looking to prove that we're still just as good as split one, if not better.

37:21.180 --> 37:25.580
I definitely think we're the best bit of a band, which need to prove it on the stage.

37:25.580 --> 37:28.340
On the other side, Curtis Pro here, I'm talking to Coach Memory.

37:28.340 --> 37:30.180
Man, it's good to see you again.

37:30.180 --> 37:32.180
You know, I just thought you'd be new smiles on the faces.

37:32.180 --> 37:34.460
You guys have a little more locked in right now, though.

37:34.460 --> 37:37.060
Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're just getting locked trying to get ready for the match.

37:37.060 --> 37:39.060
We're feeling good, but I gotta stay in it.

37:39.060 --> 37:41.660
Yeah, I asked him about the longer matches as well.

37:41.660 --> 37:43.900
When it comes to play-ins, how are you guys viewing that?

37:43.900 --> 37:45.700
You use it as like for practice.

37:45.700 --> 37:48.100
You guys feel like you're nervous that there's more chances

37:48.100 --> 37:49.540
maybe to get knocked out?

37:49.540 --> 37:51.980
I think it's honestly kind of an advantage if you can win.

37:51.980 --> 37:53.260
Obviously, it's a lot harder because you

37:53.260 --> 37:54.420
have to go through more teams.

37:54.420 --> 37:56.620
But if you end up doing that, which we are hoping that we

37:56.620 --> 37:58.460
will, then I think you're honestly more

37:58.460 --> 38:00.740
warm than the teams that are in the actual main event.

38:00.740 --> 38:01.140
Right.

38:01.140 --> 38:03.020
Well, can you quickly, as we run through your players here,

38:03.020 --> 38:04.540
talk to me in the down the row,

38:04.540 --> 38:06.460
wavey two-piece talk.

38:06.460 --> 38:09.020
This squad, they've always seemed to connect so well

38:09.020 --> 38:12.300
together. Has it been easy to get them ready for Worlds?

38:12.300 --> 38:13.060
No, I don't think so.

38:13.060 --> 38:14.980
I mean, it's no surprise too that I would say

38:14.980 --> 38:17.340
we had a rough second split.

38:17.340 --> 38:19.220
And since then, we've been working very, very hard.

38:19.220 --> 38:20.660
All the players really want it, and they really

38:20.660 --> 38:22.140
want to do all this for us.

38:22.140 --> 38:23.340
But I think that we're ready.

38:23.340 --> 38:23.820
Yeah, no.

38:23.820 --> 38:26.420
I mean, again, I can't keep too much bias,

38:26.420 --> 38:28.220
but I'm rooting for you guys.

38:28.220 --> 38:30.700
But all in all, I mean, is there

38:30.700 --> 38:32.300
a player on the field that was soon laid?

38:32.300 --> 38:33.500
And he kind of takes charge of things.

38:33.500 --> 38:35.780
Do you get tense and keep some, you know,

38:35.780 --> 38:37.460
I guess, collected in the match

38:37.460 --> 38:38.620
when you can't talk to them?

38:38.620 --> 38:42.220
I think they all do it at different points. Honestly, they're all kind of responsible for a certain part of the game.

38:42.620 --> 38:45.820
So it really just depends how it's going. Sometimes it's me, sometimes I'm getting in there together.

38:46.220 --> 38:48.020
Yeah, it just depends. It depends on how the match is going.

38:48.220 --> 38:52.420
And it's fairly go. I heard just a moment ago, I think it was talk, saying in his interview that

38:52.820 --> 38:56.020
one of the main goals is to play in front of an audience.

38:56.220 --> 39:00.620
Is that really like the main goal and nothing less than making audience would be acceptable for you guys?

39:00.820 --> 39:02.220
Well, the goal is to win. Always.

39:02.420 --> 39:03.620
To win worlds, obviously.

39:03.820 --> 39:08.020
But I think past that, yeah, we really want to make it through play and we think that we're better than a lot of the teams here.

39:08.020 --> 39:08.980
Obviously, everyone's good.

39:08.980 --> 39:10.420
It is worlds at the end of the day.

39:10.420 --> 39:11.980
But we think that we're ready.

39:11.980 --> 39:13.260
And yeah, if we could play in front of the crowd,

39:13.260 --> 39:14.980
I think that would be like step one for us.

39:14.980 --> 39:16.420
OK, well, I'm excited, man.

39:16.420 --> 39:17.860
I'm going to not take any more time.

39:17.860 --> 39:19.060
Let you get back to your players.

39:19.060 --> 39:20.060
This match is important.

39:20.060 --> 39:20.660
Good luck in it.

39:20.660 --> 39:22.620
Thank you very much.

39:22.620 --> 39:25.300
It was meaningful to me to hear memory when asked

39:25.300 --> 39:26.860
what seems like almost a kind of a throwaway question.

39:26.860 --> 39:29.100
Like, was it hard to get your team ready to go to say,

39:29.100 --> 39:30.420
yes, yes.

39:30.420 --> 39:33.180
And I think it speaks to just how monumental of an effort

39:33.180 --> 39:34.900
it is for any team at any stage

39:34.900 --> 39:37.100
to make it to this level of a competition.

39:37.100 --> 39:39.920
Yeah, I think a torpedo made a good point as well of like the planes.

39:39.920 --> 39:45.860
What a good chance for a warmer, a brilliant like way that you can actually get into the competition really by the way through.

39:45.980 --> 39:46.520
It's brutal.

39:46.520 --> 39:54.100
It's cutthroat, but it's a really nice chance to be able to just practice a little bit in the environment before that you really run into all the big dogs.

39:54.140 --> 40:00.180
And then if you do make it out of planes, if you get that one upset in groups, that could be the difference from being like top of your group or not.

40:00.180 --> 40:05.220
So like, I think these teams are using this as like, yeah, sure, we're playing teams, but we're here.

40:05.220 --> 40:11.220
It does not matter and if we win this, then the sky is the limit like at this point.

40:11.220 --> 40:13.900
Both these teams have aspirations for a lot.

40:13.900 --> 40:15.940
They both have dreams to move forward.

40:15.940 --> 40:20.180
I think VP may be the favorite on paper for a lot of people, but the most experienced

40:20.180 --> 40:23.940
person at this level of competition is drew on the other side.

40:23.940 --> 40:27.980
So let us know who you think is going to win the progressive fan vote and we'll

40:27.980 --> 40:28.980
make our picks up here.

40:28.980 --> 40:30.980
Stumpy first prediction of 2026 worlds.

40:30.980 --> 40:31.980
Who you got?

40:31.980 --> 40:32.980
I'm not wrong.

40:32.980 --> 40:37.340
I will say for me, the Virtus.pro, I've just got the edge here.

40:37.340 --> 40:40.940
I think that in particular, they're on a bit more of that upswing.

40:40.940 --> 40:44.260
I've really enjoyed seeing what Wavy can do throughout the Bumbley Bones as well.

40:44.260 --> 40:45.560
He was really excited to watch.

40:45.560 --> 40:49.980
Obviously couldn't get that done there, but for me, it's going to be the Virtus.pro for sure.

40:50.540 --> 40:51.700
I'm also going to go Virtus.pro.

40:51.700 --> 40:53.820
I think they went to the EWCLCQ.

40:53.820 --> 40:56.820
They didn't make it out of that tournament, but they beat a lot of good teams throughout.

40:57.140 --> 40:57.980
They beat Man City.

40:57.980 --> 41:00.180
They beat BS Plus as well.

41:00.180 --> 41:04.180
So I think they got a lot of experience there to take into this world championship.

41:04.180 --> 41:05.940
And I think they're ready. I'm going to be thinking.

41:05.940 --> 41:08.180
Well, I was going to say it was an experienced version of the new age skill,

41:08.180 --> 41:10.180
but Gibbs just said they got a lot of experience.

41:10.180 --> 41:12.100
I was the big one anyway. So give me a verdict, bro.

41:12.100 --> 41:14.740
I do think that they are the better team here at the moment.

41:14.740 --> 41:16.740
I do think that they can take down into the final squad.

41:16.740 --> 41:18.500
We're going to start off with a desk sweep here.

41:18.500 --> 41:20.340
I also have VP on this one.

41:20.340 --> 41:23.140
Dr. Rufi on the other side gives me some a moment of pause there.

41:23.140 --> 41:24.100
But I know that night in Bems,

41:24.100 --> 41:26.900
it's been three years since they played at the world championship.

41:26.900 --> 41:29.460
But again, if he's seen this as a warm up,

41:29.460 --> 41:34.580
He's gonna be given that mentality that his players as well still the secret weapon on this field is tough a world

41:34.780 --> 41:37.940
Rookie will he show up in the way? We saw him playing for the year

41:37.940 --> 41:41.460
I want to see it happen folks the coin first pick of the tournament

41:41.460 --> 41:44.260
We got Brazil on this side because the goons don't have a don't have a logo

41:44.780 --> 41:49.140
And they're all Brazilian players and it come up for Virtus Pro on this one folks

41:49.140 --> 41:53.340
So I can lean sweep on the death. That's usually a curse in RLCS standards

41:54.700 --> 41:57.740
We'll see what they can do they obviously didn't have great numbers

41:57.740 --> 42:03.540
They lost to BS plus in that upper bracket where they lost 4-0, but let's not forget that that lcq

42:03.900 --> 42:07.540
Was played at two different times the final day was played weeks later

42:07.580 --> 42:12.500
So goges they lost 4-0 then they had weeks prep to get ready for them again

42:12.500 --> 42:16.880
What happens they beat them on champions field they make it through that bracket now

42:16.880 --> 42:19.620
They have had all like all this prep time for the world championship

42:19.860 --> 42:25.440
Did they prep enough like they can definitely pull the upside part of the difference here to me as well as the fact that obviously

42:25.440 --> 42:31.000
obviously, you got the go Jays as an LCQ team. They had to pay the LCQ. VP didn't need to.

42:31.000 --> 42:35.160
They got through off the back of their own points. They burned that fourth spot for North

42:35.160 --> 42:39.240
America. North America as a collective just couldn't get another spot for the main event

42:39.240 --> 42:42.760
in that number four seed. So, fortunate for them they couldn't do it, but VP, they didn't

42:42.760 --> 42:44.160
need to do all that LCQ nonsense.

42:44.160 --> 42:47.000
I think this match is maybe a little bit closer to the best predictions made at

42:47.000 --> 42:49.640
look here. They are the favorites, but they're not that big of a favorites. Folks

42:49.640 --> 42:53.000
that can already hear that the B3 matches have begun. Make sure you've got the

42:53.000 --> 42:54.800
alternate stream pulled up as well.

42:54.800 --> 43:01.800
The best week of the Rocket League year kicks off with sending four teams home in this play in a New World Contest

43:01.800 --> 43:04.800
in South America versus North America here on the mainstream.

43:04.800 --> 43:06.800
Get up and get loud. It's game day.

43:08.800 --> 43:11.800
It's my favorite week of the year.

43:11.800 --> 43:15.800
The World Championship play-ins about to get underway.

43:15.800 --> 43:26.800
The hardest pro, taking the field here against Bogoges, James, got a lot of experience, land experience on the Bogoges team, the hardest pro, recent land experience, and what?

43:26.800 --> 43:29.800
To see a comeback if you're on this team.

43:29.800 --> 43:33.800
Great start here for VP.

43:33.800 --> 43:42.800
What that, you see that attention to loss backwards, great to GPs, two-piece and beautiful 50, setting up the shot for talk.

43:42.800 --> 43:47.500
It cannot have a better start for Virtus. Pro wonderfully done

43:48.060 --> 43:54.600
You talk somebody if you watch North American regionals you are very familiar with and had a whole segment

43:55.040 --> 43:57.040
Where we just have a top five

43:57.640 --> 44:04.600
And it's a beautiful shot here because he's unable to find a safe. I'll kick off again right to talk and it is

44:05.240 --> 44:07.540
an early episode of the talk show

44:07.540 --> 44:14.840
We saw that quite a bit at the beginning of the year when this team was under the name redacted

44:15.280 --> 44:21.520
Looking for that sponsor where they were unsponsored. They looked like maybe the best team in North America

44:22.160 --> 44:28.040
You can heard talk mentioning that in his interview backsliding a bit in the second split

44:29.280 --> 44:35.640
Well when this squad was firing on all cylinders derby they were a formidable force

44:35.640 --> 44:41.280
And you're seeing a great start here. You can understand why the desk was so one-sided on the pigs

44:42.360 --> 44:45.740
Waving in two-piece most slouches on this roster

44:46.520 --> 44:49.440
No more experience than talking they picked up talk

44:49.920 --> 44:55.400
They were expecting to get those similar results that they had that kickoff weekend more top fours in their future

44:55.400 --> 44:58.080
But turned out to be a difficult road for them

44:58.520 --> 45:00.360
near side bends

45:00.360 --> 45:03.840
And the coach is trying to get something going they got it down with it go straight to them

45:03.840 --> 45:05.840
I haven't played that in a long time.

45:05.840 --> 45:07.840
The shot placement has got to be better than that.

45:07.840 --> 45:09.840
That was a great opportunity.

45:09.840 --> 45:11.840
Could have been a goal there.

45:11.840 --> 45:15.840
Fourth to go, Jays, but they come away empty handed.

45:15.840 --> 45:19.840
See if they get punished on the other end.

45:19.840 --> 45:23.840
Dems used a lot of moves just to get that ball out.

45:23.840 --> 45:25.840
No midfield move spawning for him.

45:25.840 --> 45:27.840
Wavy avoids that bump.

45:27.840 --> 45:29.840
Dems, good patience.

45:29.840 --> 45:31.840
Four of them spawns for him.

45:31.840 --> 45:36.720
and he gets the play ball didn't get the reset they didn't know it felt

45:36.720 --> 45:42.640
Truffino nice 50 but doesn't matter defense for vertus bro stands firm and

45:42.640 --> 45:46.760
waiting to get another clear he's just gonna go for a 50 put 50s of it

45:46.760 --> 45:51.120
working out quite well for vertus bro

45:51.960 --> 45:58.480
two-piece shut down there by Truffino

45:58.480 --> 46:01.480
So much for the good of these needs to step up.

46:01.480 --> 46:02.480
They've already had a chance.

46:02.480 --> 46:05.480
They can't let this one get too far out of hand.

46:05.480 --> 46:09.480
Only best of fives on these plans.

46:11.480 --> 46:12.480
Does feel tight.

46:12.480 --> 46:16.480
Trafini on the other end is going to try to cut off two-piece.

46:16.480 --> 46:17.480
Got the bump as well.

46:17.480 --> 46:18.480
No one wanted to commit.

46:18.480 --> 46:20.480
They saw two-piece was in danger.

46:20.480 --> 46:22.480
And you're up to nothing.

46:22.480 --> 46:23.480
They decided to play safe.

46:23.480 --> 46:25.480
Oh, that's not a lot of boosts.

46:25.480 --> 46:30.480
He wasn't going to get a follow up on either way because he gets the catch down field with a 50 but nobody's there.

46:30.480 --> 46:32.480
The ball just can break back the wavy.

46:32.480 --> 46:36.480
No play, the first throw up all over the GoJs right now.

46:36.480 --> 46:37.480
It's two-piece.

46:37.480 --> 46:39.480
They'll let that ball come the whole way back.

46:39.480 --> 46:41.480
GoJs happily take the challenge.

46:41.480 --> 46:44.480
Ben's trying to get something set up, but every time I'm looking at Boost,

46:44.480 --> 46:48.480
on the GoJs side, James, it's empty whenever they're on the ball.

46:48.480 --> 46:50.480
That's what I was going to say, they're just struggling to get that Boost.

46:50.480 --> 46:53.480
That can't even make contact on that ball.

46:53.480 --> 46:59.480
Benz not going to be able to do lunch there. Couldn't even get the second touch because he's on empty Truffino on empty as well.

47:00.480 --> 47:05.480
I finally having possession with boost but that shut down quickly. However, this is still a dangerous attack.

47:05.480 --> 47:08.480
He's fine. Back to Truffino and that shot is interrupted.

47:08.480 --> 47:12.480
It's a good idea though. That's the biggest threat that the players have had on that so far.

47:12.480 --> 47:19.480
Outside of the missed opportunity from Benz, that's a fast down field talk with the hat-trick.

47:19.480 --> 47:24.480
Just start game number one, Virtus.pro. Continue to fight.

47:24.480 --> 47:26.480
An actual little tip there from Wavy.

47:26.480 --> 47:30.480
Tok didn't have much boost, but still a perfect slot.

47:30.480 --> 47:33.480
That is tough to do. We don't have anything in the tank.

47:33.480 --> 47:37.480
Still hit the mark. Great start for Tok.

47:37.480 --> 47:43.480
Tok, a player that, you know, if you've been following N.A. for quite some time,

47:43.480 --> 47:45.480
he was on your radar.

47:45.480 --> 47:50.040
And you're going to wonder if he'd ever really, you know, be able to reach that elite player level

47:50.680 --> 47:55.400
on the international stage and he is showing up right now in this first game.

47:56.520 --> 48:01.080
Trofino had an opportunity earlier, maybe it made two great saves in the net.

48:03.320 --> 48:08.680
Goj's just too long to get anything going. Whenever something does, it ends very quickly.

48:09.400 --> 48:12.040
This is exactly what Virtus.Pro wanted to do.

48:12.040 --> 48:16.040
You know, Gojace, there is a lot of experience on this roster.

48:16.040 --> 48:19.040
It's not a team that you can sleep for.

48:19.040 --> 48:22.040
The Verzbrough want to prove that they absolutely belong

48:22.040 --> 48:25.040
and that that kickoff weekend wasn't a fluke of their ability.

48:25.040 --> 48:28.040
They need to take care of business and do it convincingly here.

48:28.040 --> 48:30.040
Game 1 is up to the task.

48:30.040 --> 48:33.040
Oh, he got past that!

48:33.040 --> 48:35.040
Wait, we gotta see Top POV on this.

48:35.040 --> 48:36.040
We'll get it.

48:36.040 --> 48:39.040
Top threatens the double.

48:39.040 --> 48:43.040
The end of the backboard cleans up his own rebound.

48:43.040 --> 48:46.040
This game has been all talk.

48:46.040 --> 48:49.040
The epitome of the talk show.

48:49.040 --> 48:52.040
Front row seats. Enjoy it.

48:52.040 --> 48:56.040
Absolutely. Welcome to the World Championship.

48:56.040 --> 49:00.040
The play-in, at least, for talk.

49:00.040 --> 49:04.040
What a way to start the owner of all four goals.

49:04.040 --> 49:07.040
And certainly the talk of the field is,

49:07.040 --> 49:09.440
This one comes across, bends, no boosts.

49:10.640 --> 49:13.840
That's going to be something that the Gojes are going to have to figure out.

49:14.640 --> 49:16.440
How do they protect their own corners?

49:16.840 --> 49:19.840
How do they make sure they have resources when they actually move down the field?

49:20.340 --> 49:21.640
They're not winning those canisters.

49:21.640 --> 49:25.440
Curtis Pro doing a great job managing the field

49:26.340 --> 49:28.940
and keeping those resources at a minimum for the Gojes.

49:29.140 --> 49:31.840
We've only had really two or three opportunities on the net

49:32.140 --> 49:34.540
that Trefino tries to get something here at the end of regulation.

49:34.540 --> 49:41.040
And I think just looking back at the best opportunity that we go to his head was that shot from Benz

49:41.540 --> 49:46.220
Ended up shooting it right at two piece who was in that needed better placement than that you saw

49:46.380 --> 49:50.220
What kind of placement talk can pull off when he's got no boost

49:50.980 --> 49:52.980
talk really but also

49:53.620 --> 49:55.420
credit to

49:55.420 --> 49:59.340
Memory for preparing the team right off kickoff

49:59.900 --> 50:02.700
Perfect kickoff strat leads to a goal

50:02.700 --> 50:10.420
You know they had two goals that were a direct result of their kickoff strats that were executed perfectly

50:11.740 --> 50:14.300
Very good performance from Virtus Pro

50:14.820 --> 50:21.500
Who have shown up in game one talk is looking brilliant yet two peas on the back line made that you know

50:21.500 --> 50:26.700
Maybe that there's the biggest save of the game. It was shot again right out of easy print the handle

50:26.700 --> 50:30.900
But two peas you don't need me to tell you how good he is on defense

50:30.900 --> 50:34.620
But all-round, great stuff from VP.

50:34.620 --> 50:35.620
Absolutely.

50:35.620 --> 50:39.060
Getting it done, maybe had those good saves, like you said.

50:39.060 --> 50:45.220
Talk, still finding a way to score electrifying goals, and that leaves a lot of questions

50:45.220 --> 50:47.220
on the other end for the gogis.

50:47.220 --> 50:52.020
Now, Trefina on this team, formerly of Furia, actually ends up getting kicked off of

50:52.020 --> 50:57.780
Furia and finds a way to qualify for the play-ins with this roster with, again,

50:57.780 --> 51:00.300
Two players, Benz and Knight that have land experience.

51:00.300 --> 51:02.060
Knight is even getting a top four,

51:02.060 --> 51:03.820
which was the whole way back in 2022

51:03.820 --> 51:04.940
with the Rotterdam major.

51:04.940 --> 51:05.780
Oh, yeah.

51:05.780 --> 51:08.140
And the Gen G win.

51:08.140 --> 51:10.900
The win against Gen G and then they lost to Royston

51:10.900 --> 51:11.740
in the semifinals.

51:11.740 --> 51:14.300
Well, Gen G winning that one in Rotterdam is what I meant.

51:14.300 --> 51:15.460
That was crazy.

51:15.460 --> 51:16.300
Oh, yeah, and the Gen G winning.

51:16.300 --> 51:19.060
Crazy split.

51:19.060 --> 51:19.900
But you're right.

51:19.900 --> 51:22.820
That's a lot of experience here for the GOJs,

51:22.820 --> 51:25.060
but I think, and Jeremy, you're the one

51:25.060 --> 51:29.580
to set me straight, but Sam has not been able to reach the heights they have to pass.

51:29.580 --> 51:35.580
There was a moment where Furia was maybe the most tight team outside of NA and EU, and

51:35.580 --> 51:36.580
now he's juicy.

51:36.580 --> 51:38.580
Finally, the first goal for the GOJs.

51:38.580 --> 51:41.580
That was the one to get it.

51:41.580 --> 51:46.580
Very nice challenge for Knight, and a much needed goal here.

51:46.580 --> 51:47.580
Finally on the board.

51:47.580 --> 51:50.580
Finally on the board, it's Benz and Knight.

51:50.580 --> 51:53.080
Knight, excuse me, Benz, his last land.

51:53.080 --> 51:55.600
Mr. Phoenix pointed out in the free game

51:55.600 --> 51:58.800
was in Dusseldorf three years ago.

51:58.800 --> 52:01.200
And you talk about South America, the struggles

52:01.200 --> 52:04.560
that they've had where it's just been with the task of fury

52:04.560 --> 52:06.960
of kind of carry South America on their back.

52:06.960 --> 52:08.720
You have MIBR with Razeball coming back

52:08.720 --> 52:11.040
to South America now.

52:11.040 --> 52:12.440
I've got to go on a game on that side.

52:12.440 --> 52:13.880
Like that.

52:13.880 --> 52:15.320
Made it Brazil on the cost of getting

52:15.320 --> 52:16.400
some really solid results.

52:16.400 --> 52:18.760
But yeah, like I would say before,

52:18.760 --> 52:22.920
it seems like Sam in a position where they're really

52:22.920 --> 52:28.680
needed to prove they're worth it oh it's talk again talk that's been the only goal

52:28.680 --> 52:33.520
scorer for Verdes Brode he's been doing so much look at this control flipping

52:33.520 --> 52:40.260
into the ball the ball still parking the wall talk deep to possession does so

52:40.260 --> 52:44.680
much work all on his own incredible stuff from talk there was a slight

52:44.680 --> 52:47.840
confusion about what was happening there on the dojo's end to figure out

52:47.840 --> 52:54.860
The key thought his teammate on the corner was going to get that challenge, but Tog just absolutely destroyed him on it

52:54.860 --> 52:58.500
because Ben's left to go get corner boost, so he wasn't gonna be able to play defense.

52:58.500 --> 53:02.620
They were wholly relying on Tog getting challenged in the corner there, and he made them look silly.

53:03.120 --> 53:07.620
Yeah, to be able to get the touch pass, but also control the ball.

53:09.300 --> 53:11.300
That is not easy to do.

53:12.180 --> 53:14.180
That one dangerous.

53:14.180 --> 53:16.980
He's got caught again, just don't have the resources to catch that one.

53:16.980 --> 53:19.140
That's a good boost to get there, look at him.

53:19.140 --> 53:21.140
Trefino, nothing, nice.

53:21.140 --> 53:23.140
Oh, he missed it.

53:23.140 --> 53:27.900
I mean, even if he tries to go get that corner, even if he gets it, he's going to be too far out of position.

53:27.900 --> 53:29.900
He wouldn't be able to boost and get back.

53:29.900 --> 53:32.900
But you saw that, you know, he was creeping over there.

53:32.900 --> 53:34.900
He's got no boost, Watson, so bad.

53:34.900 --> 53:37.400
But then, out of position for that fall.

53:37.400 --> 53:41.400
He starts feeling the frustration when you're on...

53:41.400 --> 53:46.280
When you're going on minute seven or being unable to do anything and being starved constantly

53:46.280 --> 53:50.980
You're just trying to get to the ball and get it cleared out. The Goja is clearly feeling the stress right now

53:52.400 --> 53:55.320
First row freewheeling right now up high here comes talk again

53:55.320 --> 53:57.400
No blues, but it drops right back to wavy

53:58.720 --> 54:00.720
top shelf perfect placement

54:01.800 --> 54:08.800
Yeah, maybe doesn't even let it bounce it's it's tough when a ball hasn't bounced yet to get that right amount of

54:08.800 --> 54:14.800
I'll fight on the ball to be able to judge that so perfectly to get it by the defense. That was well done by wavy

54:15.240 --> 54:17.240
Not a give me by any means

54:20.120 --> 54:21.320
Gorge's

54:21.320 --> 54:25.980
They get the ball off the kickoff Ben's missed it. He's got a follow it and he just can't put it in

54:25.980 --> 54:29.280
That's two opportunities now in both games from Ben's

54:29.600 --> 54:34.200
It's his job to score that goal and it's not been that easy

54:34.720 --> 54:37.840
That was the easiest one so far for the door J's they couldn't convert

54:38.800 --> 54:43.760
If you know with some space here had to lose as well and for a flick pass, but that's intercepted by talk

54:44.120 --> 54:47.820
He blasted it off his own backboard against help clear downfield by way B

54:49.240 --> 54:51.580
That's again, how much boost let's get help

54:52.680 --> 54:57.440
You know being contested all up watch out for talk talk off the ceiling

55:00.640 --> 55:08.040
Talk we just might have to give up another top five segment here after the play-ins off the ceiling catches it on the reset

55:08.800 --> 55:11.200
It just drops it in the bucket!

55:11.200 --> 55:15.500
Oh yeah, I mean, I'd be smiling too if I was TalksT-Babe.

55:15.500 --> 55:17.940
He's in shock like that.

55:17.940 --> 55:20.200
Wavey all grins.

55:20.200 --> 55:26.880
At this point, for VP, it's just past the ball to talk.

55:26.880 --> 55:27.800
That's been effective.

55:27.800 --> 55:30.960
He'll find a way.

55:30.960 --> 55:36.160
A good start as this one comes downfield again.

55:36.160 --> 55:39.200
And you talk about the rest of the field and the playings, James.

55:39.920 --> 55:41.520
And there's one team in particular,

55:42.440 --> 55:44.520
probably going to be pretty difficult for anyone to get by.

55:44.920 --> 55:50.200
Falcons will have Falcons foot after this match for no doubt.

55:50.200 --> 55:51.680
Many people waiting for that one.

55:52.080 --> 55:56.160
Well, Vert is pro, really making a statement right now as to why

55:56.520 --> 56:00.000
they might be a potential threat moving on that double tap.

56:01.320 --> 56:02.680
Talking almost do no wrong.

56:02.680 --> 56:04.680
Now you can't score the wide angle double there.

56:04.680 --> 56:29.780
I like the idea though going for the fake trying to let Truffinio take that shot came close

56:29.780 --> 56:36.780
But I hear you Jeremy, this VP team looking like a real threat to make it through the uppers

56:36.780 --> 56:40.780
right now on a collision course with Mate Toppup.

56:40.780 --> 56:45.780
John, not going to get back to the ball.

56:45.780 --> 56:49.780
Ben's leaving it, but Knight has no boost.

56:49.780 --> 56:52.780
The Rugglesborough had to respect it. They didn't know how much they had.

56:52.780 --> 56:54.780
Still they get the ball back, talk off the ceiling.

56:54.780 --> 56:56.780
You're going to look at it this time.

56:56.780 --> 57:01.780
Benz was able to get that touch off the backboard because you saw Tuck had it lined up.

57:02.780 --> 57:03.780
Now two-piece.

57:04.780 --> 57:05.780
The ball back down.

57:05.780 --> 57:07.780
Benz will go again.

57:07.780 --> 57:09.780
Has to use everything for a 50.

57:10.780 --> 57:12.780
Trefino waiting for a moment to strike.

57:12.780 --> 57:15.780
Back into the corner. They stole the corner boost as well.

57:15.780 --> 57:16.780
Two-piece.

57:16.780 --> 57:18.780
Wins enough of the 50s. It goes lateral.

57:18.780 --> 57:20.780
It will go straight back tonight.

57:20.780 --> 57:23.780
The Gorgias are effectively out of time here down three.

57:23.780 --> 57:29.780
They'll score once every 10 seconds at this point and they can get it downfield, but they can't shoot it on target.

57:33.780 --> 57:34.780
Right.

57:35.780 --> 57:36.780
Trying to get one through the road.

57:37.780 --> 57:44.780
Mr. Koday's, this one feels over. This series is not the one that they were hoping for.

57:44.780 --> 57:48.780
Vertice Pro, Dominant Games, two-piece, to die.

57:48.780 --> 57:53.220
And he's on a collision course with Montaignee Toppo.

57:53.220 --> 57:54.980
We saw him right hand side of the screen.

57:54.980 --> 57:57.860
They're currently up 2-0 against five fears.

57:57.860 --> 57:59.940
The expected result coming through there.

57:59.940 --> 58:03.580
And the expected result just may be coming in through here

58:03.580 --> 58:05.500
as the ball touches the ground.

58:05.500 --> 58:09.180
But Gojax down 0-2, still looking for the first game win.

58:09.180 --> 58:14.900
Yeah, this is such a solid start for Verdes Pro.

58:14.900 --> 58:17.020
You'll wonder if they handed in him.

58:17.020 --> 58:19.060
We knew that at the start of the year,

58:19.060 --> 58:21.780
they were a force to be reckoned with,

58:21.780 --> 58:24.580
cooled off after getting picked up by Virtus.Pro.

58:25.740 --> 58:29.460
But from what they did earlier in the year,

58:29.460 --> 58:31.420
the levels that they were playing at,

58:31.420 --> 58:33.780
they were competitors to win

58:33.780 --> 58:35.500
North American regional events.

58:36.940 --> 58:39.700
You know, you felt like if this team kept improving,

58:39.700 --> 58:41.820
they could be a serious contender

58:41.820 --> 58:43.020
on the international stage.

58:43.020 --> 58:44.500
And we're seeing right now

58:44.500 --> 58:46.780
that they are head and shoulders above.

58:46.780 --> 58:55.540
We go just right now. This is a dominating performance for VP, but most notably, in my opinion, for talk, talk has been insane.

58:55.540 --> 59:03.400
Off the ceiling, flip reset. Goal of the series could possibly be goal of the day.

59:03.400 --> 59:07.940
I feel like his recovery off the backboard to dish it after his double tackle.

59:07.940 --> 59:10.060
That was good. That was good.

59:10.060 --> 59:15.420
But to me, when you just beat the whole defense, they don't even get a hand on it.

59:15.420 --> 59:18.980
Yeah, that's a little sweeter than picking up your own rebound.

59:18.980 --> 59:24.220
But that it does not diminish the play because I agree with you,

59:24.220 --> 59:26.340
Jorvi talk has been jaw dropping.

59:26.940 --> 59:29.700
He has been the best player on the field by far.

59:29.820 --> 59:35.100
The eye test holding true because as we'll use their timeout,

59:35.340 --> 59:39.740
which we added to best of fives this season, give themselves an extra 60

59:39.740 --> 59:43.300
seconds to figure out how in the world they're supposed to stop talk.

59:43.300 --> 59:48.940
They were able to get a little more possession, probably when the game was already out of hands,

59:48.940 --> 59:56.680
Vardis Perot up 4-1, but we saw how many times on defense talk, he had that goal where he

59:56.680 --> 01:00:01.680
got that pop up along the side wall, ran it around to tip it in, that was one where you

01:00:01.680 --> 01:00:05.560
had a hard commit, two players commit in the corner for Bogoges, expecting them to get

01:00:05.560 --> 01:00:09.600
the 50, and then the one where Knight, he turned around, missed the corner boost,

01:00:09.600 --> 01:00:14.760
You say he probably would make out to the guy. I think he bailed out right before that second and first man again

01:00:14.880 --> 01:00:18.940
Both going up and acting as if they're gonna get that 50

01:00:18.940 --> 01:00:23.040
They're trying to play aggressive. Nobody seems like second man doesn't really seem to be

01:00:23.520 --> 01:00:28.520
Accounting for support on these 50s. They have to adjust the way they're approaching their rotation on defense

01:00:28.880 --> 01:00:30.880
Maybe it helps to get more boost. I don't know

01:00:31.240 --> 01:00:36.720
They got a lot of work to do to stop talking company here for this problem one game away from a three game sweep

01:00:36.720 --> 01:00:43.720
Another back right does find its way over to talk with. Talk with the demo.

01:00:43.720 --> 01:00:48.720
Should we go and just flip the script on that kickoff?

01:00:48.720 --> 01:00:54.720
Gravino even if he's been corner past the 10th with that shot right back at him.

01:00:54.720 --> 01:00:58.720
Gravino will find the corner boost and there's a demo on the back line.

01:00:58.720 --> 01:01:01.720
This could be a goal and it should be a goal!

01:01:01.720 --> 01:01:02.760
YAAH KABAAAA!!!

01:01:02.760 --> 01:01:03.460
AH! AH! AH!

01:01:03.460 --> 01:01:04.340
Got bumped off!

01:01:04.340 --> 01:01:06.780
Respawn, that was so smart!

01:01:06.780 --> 01:01:08.340
Couldn't get to the ball in time,

01:01:08.340 --> 01:01:10.420
but you could take out the shooter.

01:01:10.420 --> 01:01:12.760
And theee Gorsos are the only worst enemy there.

01:01:12.760 --> 01:01:14.020
The bump doesn't even matter

01:01:14.020 --> 01:01:15.940
if Trufino just hits it on target!

01:01:15.940 --> 01:01:18.960
It was such a good demo on the back line as well.

01:01:18.960 --> 01:01:20.320
And you're right.

01:01:20.320 --> 01:01:22.800
Trufino wasn't the easiest read,

01:01:22.800 --> 01:01:23.960
but certainly,

01:01:23.960 --> 01:01:26.740
Scorval could have got that on target.

01:01:26.740 --> 01:01:28.820
Probably wasn't expecting that bump either,

01:01:28.820 --> 01:01:31.600
that was so smart and well executed.

01:01:31.600 --> 01:01:35.600
Vertus Pearl can't do no wrong right now.

01:01:35.600 --> 01:01:39.600
If they get control of the ball, no double tap.

01:01:39.600 --> 01:01:41.600
All of Vertus Pearl waiting for a two-point section.

01:01:41.600 --> 01:01:44.600
He might just know he's going to score this.

01:01:44.600 --> 01:01:48.600
Drops it, sets it up, and it's off the bar.

01:01:48.600 --> 01:01:50.600
Wavy will try again.

01:01:50.600 --> 01:01:54.600
Holding is flipped forever to get it to talk and wavy.

01:01:54.600 --> 01:01:57.600
Just dangling, but carried in front of a net.

01:01:57.600 --> 01:01:59.600
A smothering pressure. Good option here.

01:01:59.600 --> 01:02:00.760
gets the reset.

01:02:00.760 --> 01:02:04.600
They used his flip and you could see the panic

01:02:04.600 --> 01:02:06.560
in every member of the GoJs.

01:02:06.560 --> 01:02:08.080
They were trying to get up to him

01:02:08.080 --> 01:02:09.280
and they knew he had the reset.

01:02:09.280 --> 01:02:10.800
They saw that he had it.

01:02:10.800 --> 01:02:11.960
They were trying to deny the goal

01:02:11.960 --> 01:02:14.720
but maybe able to just get that rebound

01:02:14.720 --> 01:02:17.040
in a perfect spot for Tark the clean up.

01:02:17.040 --> 01:02:19.720
It's crazy because when you flip into the ball

01:02:19.720 --> 01:02:21.480
you're trying to add power to the ball.

01:02:21.480 --> 01:02:23.240
But maybe he's still trying to finesse it.

01:02:23.240 --> 01:02:24.160
He uses the reset.

01:02:24.160 --> 01:02:25.160
He still flips into the ball

01:02:25.160 --> 01:02:26.640
but he gets finesse on the flip.

01:02:26.640 --> 01:02:27.960
I mean it was just excellent work.

01:02:27.960 --> 01:02:31.400
He's going off from talk here at it perfectly.

01:02:31.400 --> 01:02:32.900
Why not?

01:02:32.900 --> 01:02:36.900
Why not throw a dunk onto the pile?

01:02:36.900 --> 01:02:39.900
Dog might be right up there, Benz.

01:02:39.900 --> 01:02:41.300
Going to want that one back.

01:02:41.300 --> 01:02:44.140
That's got to sting.

01:02:44.140 --> 01:02:47.540
It's got to suck knowing that your opponent can see the future.

01:02:47.540 --> 01:02:51.900
I mean, it just feels like you can do no wrong at this point.

01:02:51.900 --> 01:02:55.660
Talk and just reading the game at the binary level.

01:02:55.660 --> 01:03:01.100
But finally we see the gogis get one.

01:03:01.100 --> 01:03:03.020
They haven't scored very much.

01:03:03.020 --> 01:03:03.980
This one's big moment.

01:03:03.980 --> 01:03:07.660
They're a really nice bump on top.

01:03:07.660 --> 01:03:10.620
Finally a bit for it for the gogis.

01:03:10.620 --> 01:03:13.660
Only scoring one goal total in the series up to this point.

01:03:13.660 --> 01:03:18.540
I have now doubled that to two total goals.

01:03:18.540 --> 01:03:21.100
See if they can tie things up.

01:03:21.100 --> 01:03:22.380
A little bit of spark or flash,

01:03:22.380 --> 01:03:24.140
but they gave up the ball again.

01:03:24.140 --> 01:03:28.300
and you cannot give talk free shots on net.

01:03:28.300 --> 01:03:31.100
Not with what he's been doing to you all series long,

01:03:31.100 --> 01:03:32.460
and that's a gimmick.

01:03:32.460 --> 01:03:34.620
Another hat trick for Tuck.

01:03:34.620 --> 01:03:39.740
Tuck blasting that one 80 miles an hour top shelf.

01:03:43.580 --> 01:03:45.820
The Gojays just have no answers.

01:03:48.540 --> 01:03:52.460
Bens will try for the hit down field by some time.

01:03:52.460 --> 01:03:57.980
Trifino and Knight both have four counters. Knight safe ball into the corner, Trifino.

01:03:59.260 --> 01:04:02.860
I had trouble getting back to that read. Knight comes back around to it.

01:04:03.660 --> 01:04:08.860
Actually flipped off the 50. That doesn't work out though. Wavy just almost dishes it himself.

01:04:08.860 --> 01:04:12.460
Double commit from Bevro just as well. Trifino has to build him out. We'll buy him a little bit of time.

01:04:12.460 --> 01:04:24.460
Benz. No boosts. Wavy. From the corner. Tried for the recent.

01:04:24.460 --> 01:04:29.460
Going for it. And that shows you how good they're feeling.

01:04:29.460 --> 01:04:37.460
Two-piece. We'll leave that for Toc on the dribble. Toc the bigs. The 50. Unstoppable.

01:04:37.460 --> 01:04:41.460
Toc adds another goal to his tally.

01:04:41.460 --> 01:04:43.460
I don't think you can do against him right now.

01:04:43.460 --> 01:04:49.200
Reed Strophenio Knight playing in case Tok pushes it to the far side of the post.

01:04:49.200 --> 01:04:53.000
It goes back side, Knight can't recover.

01:04:53.000 --> 01:04:56.460
And Tok is just unbeatable right now.

01:04:56.460 --> 01:05:01.080
If Tok is on your fantasy team, you are in game well.

01:05:04.680 --> 01:05:05.680
It's 4-1 again.

01:05:05.680 --> 01:05:06.680
That happened quick.

01:05:06.680 --> 01:05:14.720
The Goj, the Goj has not really what they were hoping for, not over for them in this

01:05:14.720 --> 01:05:17.080
plane, so there's a double elimination bracket.

01:05:17.080 --> 01:05:20.240
They will have another chance to reset.

01:05:20.240 --> 01:05:23.960
Well, Virtus.pro really smacked them in the mouth this series.

01:05:23.960 --> 01:05:26.400
Not quite out of the woods yet, Virtus.pro.

01:05:26.400 --> 01:05:32.600
They've just got to take care of business for one plus minutes, but talk the story

01:05:32.600 --> 01:05:34.960
of the first series of the day.

01:05:34.960 --> 01:05:41.960
back to that form. We know he could take over lobbies as Matte Itapas take down five

01:05:41.960 --> 01:05:47.760
fears three nothing and they will advance to the upper centers. Yeah I mean you felt

01:05:47.760 --> 01:05:55.480
like that was the likely scenario. Now I'm curious can talk keep this level of

01:05:55.480 --> 01:06:04.400
gameplay against a team the caliber of Matte Itapa. How does VP stack up against

01:06:04.400 --> 01:06:06.400
That's the LCQ team out of Europe.

01:06:08.400 --> 01:06:11.400
Right now, they have been looking very good, Jor-Bee.

01:06:11.400 --> 01:06:16.400
I think the thing I really like, especially with two-piece,

01:06:16.400 --> 01:06:19.400
two-piece usually conducting a couple of fakes.

01:06:19.400 --> 01:06:22.400
You saw a lot of really good team play.

01:06:22.400 --> 01:06:27.400
There's clearly been a lot of focus for Virtus.Pro on field management

01:06:27.400 --> 01:06:30.400
and a little more on chemistry and obviously letting talk be talked,

01:06:30.400 --> 01:06:32.400
but it wasn't all talk.

01:06:32.400 --> 01:06:37.400
It was a lot of time though, it was all replaced.

01:06:37.400 --> 01:06:40.400
It was not all talk, but it was a lot of talk.

01:06:40.400 --> 01:06:42.400
It was a lot of talk.

01:06:42.400 --> 01:06:46.400
You know what I'm saying, the filet mignon is definitely talk.

01:06:46.400 --> 01:06:48.400
There were some bad things on the side.

01:06:48.400 --> 01:06:51.400
That's exactly what it was all talk.

01:06:51.400 --> 01:06:53.400
That one goes in.

01:06:53.400 --> 01:06:55.400
We got 24 seconds.

01:06:55.400 --> 01:07:00.400
And Bologna is going to need something off the kickoff here to buy himself a chance.

01:07:00.400 --> 01:07:05.820
Doing a chance here, but it will require some magic off kickoff

01:07:07.120 --> 01:07:12.160
This pro has had the the edge in the kickoff department in this matchup

01:07:12.960 --> 01:07:14.680
there's

01:07:14.680 --> 01:07:16.680
almost

01:07:16.760 --> 01:07:21.600
Almost a goal, but regardless that's a lot of time going to be wasted off the clock by British pro

01:07:22.640 --> 01:07:24.140
And they need to go now

01:07:24.140 --> 01:07:30.100
One of the least five seconds we could fake and the shot was not good enough

01:07:30.100 --> 01:07:34.500
If that was a part of the story here from a goal today's against bird is pro

01:07:35.200 --> 01:07:42.380
Well, it might not have been reading it, but first pro and talk take care of business easy done

01:07:43.220 --> 01:07:45.760
Bring nothing on to the upper 70s. Yeah for

01:07:46.220 --> 01:07:51.580
Goals each game for bird is pro. They were light enough to scoreboard especially talk talk

01:07:51.580 --> 01:08:13.580
I think if you are Virtus Pro, you could not hope for a much better start, they start out on kickoff, very strong, getting some early goals, but then taking that series into his own hands, that was unreal from him.

01:08:13.580 --> 01:08:16.940
I mean, you could fill a top five goals

01:08:16.940 --> 01:08:19.420
if they're just top plays from that series.

01:08:19.420 --> 01:08:21.300
My favorite one, certainly though,

01:08:21.300 --> 01:08:25.180
off the ceiling, catching it into a flip reset,

01:08:25.180 --> 01:08:27.300
slotting it past the defense.

01:08:27.300 --> 01:08:28.900
But I mean, he had to dunk as well

01:08:28.900 --> 01:08:31.740
or predicted where Benz was gonna hit it.

01:08:31.740 --> 01:08:36.740
He had that rebound recovery goal as well.

01:08:38.060 --> 01:08:39.500
So many good moments in.

01:08:39.500 --> 01:08:41.620
For Bogoges, this is a tough loss.

01:08:41.620 --> 01:08:45.820
I mean what they scored two goals or three goals throughout the entire series

01:08:46.700 --> 01:08:51.160
Really struggled. They are gonna have to go back to the drawing board. Absolutely

01:08:51.160 --> 01:08:57.240
But vertus brawl standing tall at the very start of the day what great tone-setters for the world championship play-ins

01:08:57.520 --> 01:09:01.340
I'm curious what they're gonna say here in the post game interview. They had to be up for settings

01:09:01.340 --> 01:09:03.340
Let's go down with leaf and talk to the boys

01:09:05.980 --> 01:09:10.800
And I'm down with vertus brawl wave you congratulations first win of worlds this year, man

01:09:10.800 --> 01:09:16.880
I'm excited. I'm super happy that we started off with such a clean series our prepper screams been going super well

01:09:16.880 --> 01:09:19.840
And I'm excited that we're able to show some of that here in our first match

01:09:19.840 --> 01:09:22.000
I don't know the other series is going now

01:09:22.360 --> 01:09:27.240
We're putting this yeah, the I don't know the other one was 3L. I believe it is done

01:09:27.240 --> 01:09:31.660
Okay, it was maybe the one yeah, but I didn't look at the bracket house. I've come over and talk to you guys

01:09:32.200 --> 01:09:37.160
Focus right now because that was a great series. I mean, how many close it talks for like 8,000 or something

01:09:37.160 --> 01:09:39.620
Yeah, maybe a couple billion here and taker.

01:09:39.620 --> 01:09:40.620
Yeah.

01:09:40.620 --> 01:09:41.620
That was a good series.

01:09:41.620 --> 01:09:43.200
I mean, I think Jorvie said it just before.

01:09:43.200 --> 01:09:45.080
I'm wondering if you agree with the assessment.

01:09:45.080 --> 01:09:47.320
He said, easy job.

01:09:47.320 --> 01:09:50.000
And did you power level were you guys at?

01:09:50.000 --> 01:09:51.720
I don't want to be like overconfident

01:09:51.720 --> 01:09:53.080
or have like too big of an ego,

01:09:53.080 --> 01:09:56.280
but I would say that was a pretty easy series for us

01:09:56.280 --> 01:09:57.160
considering like.

01:09:57.160 --> 01:09:58.000
Expectations.

01:09:58.000 --> 01:09:59.320
Yeah, we expected them.

01:09:59.320 --> 01:10:00.520
We expected like honestly,

01:10:00.520 --> 01:10:03.200
like that to be a pretty like hard series

01:10:03.200 --> 01:10:04.040
to get adjusted.

01:10:04.040 --> 01:10:04.880
Those were first series of worlds.

01:10:04.880 --> 01:10:06.680
You're not gonna like some chaotic stuff

01:10:06.680 --> 01:10:10.360
just gonna happen it's guaranteed so honestly for us to go through that again

01:10:10.360 --> 01:10:14.240
comfortably I don't want to sound like I'm a huge ego but you're gonna go to go

01:10:14.240 --> 01:10:18.240
through that series comfortably talk with clip farming super big confidence

01:10:18.240 --> 01:10:21.600
boost to us especially going into our next series against who's most likely

01:10:21.600 --> 01:10:24.640
made it up yeah well I mean it because you were going in with the

01:10:24.640 --> 01:10:27.360
expectations of like you're talking about the two hours that you're

01:10:27.360 --> 01:10:30.120
feeling I was having right now and so you're you're expecting something maybe

01:10:30.120 --> 01:10:32.960
to push you a little bit more do you like that it was a kind of a cruise

01:10:32.960 --> 01:10:36.120
you guys like it shows where you're at or would you like something to push

01:10:36.120 --> 01:10:42.120
a little bit harder. I mean, I'm not complaining about a 3-0 here or there, but I do expect our next

01:10:42.120 --> 01:10:46.600
opponent to go as a lot more of a competition. Right. I mean, so I guess my question before

01:10:46.600 --> 01:10:50.920
letting you go is, how do you guys carry that over? I mean, obviously it feels good. You've got that

01:10:50.920 --> 01:10:54.760
adrenaline going right now. You're like, hey, good start to worlds, but you want to keep that

01:10:54.760 --> 01:10:59.640
up going into your next matchup. So how do you stop that fall off that death of the energy?

01:10:59.640 --> 01:11:03.320
I mean, memory is literally telling me right before I hopped on the interview, don't say too

01:11:03.320 --> 01:11:07.800
much, but I will say this. We have a lot of confidence, especially with that last year.

01:11:07.800 --> 01:11:13.320
It's very easy for you to get like over to like go too far in a way. Like if you lose your footing

01:11:13.320 --> 01:11:17.880
because you're too confident, you just keep running. So we make it really clear that we have to stick

01:11:17.880 --> 01:11:22.280
to our game plan before every match, regardless of if we're extremely confident, stick to the

01:11:22.280 --> 01:11:28.040
game plan, obviously be confident. But yeah, I like your confidence, man. I love the energy

01:11:28.040 --> 01:11:31.880
guys are bringing and hopefully that carries through in the next ones. Congratulations on that

01:11:31.880 --> 01:11:36.500
first win there and we have so much more Rocket League to get you is just the

01:11:36.500 --> 01:11:39.400
beginning of the world so please stay tuned on the other side of the break

01:11:39.400 --> 01:11:41.400
We're Great Rocket League.

01:12:09.400 --> 01:12:11.400
Keith, I want to try and experiment.

01:12:11.400 --> 01:12:12.400
All right.

01:12:12.400 --> 01:12:13.400
To help you un-become your parents,

01:12:13.400 --> 01:12:15.400
I want you to try a game called Rocket League.

01:12:15.400 --> 01:12:18.400
Ooh, is it a puzzle like my crossword?

01:12:18.400 --> 01:12:20.400
No, picture soccer.

01:12:20.400 --> 01:12:21.400
Okay.

01:12:21.400 --> 01:12:22.400
With a car.

01:12:22.400 --> 01:12:24.400
What, do I hang my feet outside the window?

01:12:24.400 --> 01:12:26.400
No, not your car.

01:12:26.400 --> 01:12:27.400
But you said think of...

01:12:27.400 --> 01:12:28.400
It's a video game.

01:12:28.400 --> 01:12:30.400
Oh, okay, I get it.

01:12:30.400 --> 01:12:31.400
Where's the cartridge?

01:12:31.400 --> 01:12:32.400
No, it's an online thing.

01:12:32.400 --> 01:12:33.400
Is there a joystick?

01:12:33.400 --> 01:12:34.400
Not like the ones you're thinking of.

01:12:34.400 --> 01:12:36.400
But I need to get some quarters, right?

01:12:36.400 --> 01:12:37.400
No.

01:12:37.400 --> 01:12:38.400
I gotta blow in the cartridge.

01:12:38.400 --> 01:12:41.440
Again, like no cartridge, but you'll need a username.

01:12:41.440 --> 01:12:42.280
Username, huh?

01:12:42.280 --> 01:12:45.560
How about Keith underscore 9914?

01:12:45.560 --> 01:12:46.880
The bathroom coat?

01:12:46.880 --> 01:12:50.160
That's the only number I can kind of remember easily, so.

01:12:50.160 --> 01:12:54.120
At Sargento, we believe your breaks deserve balanced breaks.

01:12:54.120 --> 01:12:56.360
Taste over 70 years of family commitment

01:12:56.360 --> 01:12:59.120
to high quality cheese and other delicious ingredients

01:12:59.120 --> 01:13:00.080
in every bite.

01:13:00.080 --> 01:13:02.480
You have our word on it, you have our name on it.

01:13:02.480 --> 01:13:03.440
Sargento.

01:13:03.440 --> 01:13:04.960
A promise you can taste.

01:13:04.960 --> 01:13:32.640
Every day, Michelin innovates to move the world forward on the road, and far beyond.

01:13:32.640 --> 01:13:34.640
Michelin motion for life

01:13:35.140 --> 01:13:38.600
If the Sun seems bigger when you're in Fort Worth

01:13:39.320 --> 01:13:41.320
So does the opportunity

01:13:42.200 --> 01:13:45.460
It's got lots of things you never dreamed it had

01:13:46.160 --> 01:13:48.720
the old and the new together in a

01:13:49.800 --> 01:13:51.800
unexpected plan

01:13:52.560 --> 01:13:57.460
You can do just about anything you set your mind to

01:14:27.460 --> 01:14:29.460
I

01:15:27.460 --> 01:15:37.460
I wrote that.

01:15:37.460 --> 01:15:49.460
Not America, your time is now.

01:15:49.460 --> 01:15:53.740
Five NA teams, four points qualifiers and foot esports as the region's last chance

01:15:53.740 --> 01:15:57.740
qualifiers, go into an NA LAN with the three players who won it for the region last year,

01:15:57.740 --> 01:16:01.340
still very much together, but can they hold onto their trophy?

01:16:01.340 --> 01:16:06.660
NRG's win last year was followed by a respectable top four of the Boston Major this year, but

01:16:06.660 --> 01:16:09.060
since then, ugh, it's been rough.

01:16:23.740 --> 01:16:39.820
With respect to TSM, losing to the APAC team was a serious low for the World Champs.

01:16:39.820 --> 01:16:45.700
But that was EWC, this is Worlds, and maybe an extremely friendly home crowd is precisely

01:16:45.700 --> 01:16:50.480
what Daniel, Beast Mode, and two-time Dickies Arena silver medalist Atomic need to bring

01:16:50.480 --> 01:16:54.160
back the good times, as long as he doesn't face Monkey Moon in the final.

01:16:54.160 --> 01:16:58.340
But it feels like forever since you've seen Wavey, Two Piece and Torque strutting their

01:16:58.340 --> 01:17:01.220
stuff on the big stage, you're not far off.

01:17:01.220 --> 01:17:06.840
Top 6 in NA Open 6 back in April was their last RLCS run out as a trio, as this online

01:17:06.840 --> 01:17:11.460
MRG loss condemned them to fifth in the region, below the cutoff point for the

01:17:11.460 --> 01:17:13.540
Paris Major and Esports World Cup.

01:17:13.540 --> 01:17:18.460
But wait a second, this was a team that finished top four second second in NA Split

01:17:18.460 --> 01:17:21.460
underestimate them at your peril.

01:17:21.460 --> 01:17:26.460
It's almost tradition at this point for Beast Mode, Daniel and Atomic to be North America's best team.

01:17:26.460 --> 01:17:29.460
But in the last few months, something has shifted.

01:17:29.460 --> 01:17:31.460
First, Space Station won NA Open 4.

01:17:31.460 --> 01:17:33.460
Then Rebellion won NA Open 5.

01:17:33.460 --> 01:17:36.460
Then NRG won NA Open 6, that doesn't suit our narrative.

01:17:36.460 --> 01:17:41.460
But then, both teams finished ahead of NRG in both the Paris Major and Esports World Cup.

01:17:41.460 --> 01:17:43.460
Narrative restored, I rest my case.

01:17:43.460 --> 01:17:50.140
SSG's second place at EWC, including a fiery game 7 against Rebellion in the quarterfinals,

01:17:50.140 --> 01:17:52.140
puts them at the top as it stands.

01:17:52.140 --> 01:17:55.660
But as you may have mentioned, a world championship does funny things to teams.

01:17:55.660 --> 01:17:58.660
We'll have to see how North America set up to the pressure this time around.

01:18:13.460 --> 01:18:15.460
I

01:18:43.460 --> 01:18:45.460
It's new wonderland

01:18:45.460 --> 01:18:46.460
Oh, man

01:18:46.460 --> 01:18:48.460
I have to get out of there

01:18:48.460 --> 01:18:50.460
Who can put on me, but

01:18:50.460 --> 01:18:52.460
This kind of chemistry

01:18:52.460 --> 01:18:54.460
Has no wonderland

01:18:54.460 --> 01:18:57.460
I'm running out of time

01:18:57.460 --> 01:18:59.460
I'm almost locked in white

01:18:59.460 --> 01:19:03.460
How come my life's seeking a color?

01:19:03.460 --> 01:19:06.460
What's the fuck you're looking at?

01:19:06.460 --> 01:19:08.460
You get through my mind

01:19:08.460 --> 01:19:12.460
How come my life's seeking a color?

01:19:42.460 --> 01:19:52.460
So far gone, I've got a bit graduated by a symmetry.

01:19:52.460 --> 01:20:02.460
Feels like before now, I was so clean off of me.

01:20:02.460 --> 01:20:07.460
Thought that I had figured it out, never felt depresionately.

01:20:07.460 --> 01:20:10.860
The direction of me, look at this sensitivity

01:20:10.860 --> 01:20:13.960
Pass me by the bridge, look back

01:20:13.960 --> 01:20:16.060
I have figured it out, look then

01:20:16.060 --> 01:20:18.300
Could get through to me, look at this

01:20:18.300 --> 01:20:21.660
Kind of chemistry, pass me by the bridge

01:20:22.660 --> 01:20:26.760
But in our own day, I was looking right

01:20:26.760 --> 01:20:30.760
How come I'm not seeing any color

01:20:31.260 --> 01:20:33.560
Lost in the dark, you're looking

01:20:33.560 --> 01:20:55.800
The

01:20:55.800 --> 01:21:00.720
2026 Rocket League World Championship starts off with dominant performances on both the

01:21:00.720 --> 01:21:03.820
the mainstream and the alternate stream with both of our teams,

01:21:03.820 --> 01:21:07.080
Mada Ethapa and Virtus.Pro, getting their wins in three.

01:21:07.080 --> 01:21:09.280
Yeah, Drew, Phinear said he wanted to warm up.

01:21:09.280 --> 01:21:11.840
Maybe you should have warmed up before the game.

01:21:11.840 --> 01:21:13.040
Maybe that would help end up.

01:21:13.040 --> 01:21:15.080
But Virtus.Pro looks fantastic.

01:21:15.080 --> 01:21:17.840
I thought T.O.L.K. looked like Split One T.O.L.K. again.

01:21:17.840 --> 01:21:20.280
Like if there was a breakout performance of this year,

01:21:20.280 --> 01:21:21.680
T.O.L.K. would be on that list.

01:21:21.680 --> 01:21:23.480
And he looked amazing in the match.

01:21:23.480 --> 01:21:26.040
If he keeps that up, Virtus.Pro could go for it.

01:21:26.040 --> 01:21:29.400
I mean, I think to kind of, I don't know,

01:21:29.400 --> 01:21:33.440
Give a give a bone to dr. Ufi here warm-ups is the time when you look bad

01:21:33.440 --> 01:21:37.200
He's saying like hey for a world championship. You're gonna have some early matches

01:21:37.200 --> 01:21:38.760
You're gonna have to kind of get your feet under you

01:21:38.760 --> 01:21:41.760
What a great way Peter feet on and they're not eliminated from this tournament yet

01:21:41.760 --> 01:21:45.340
They will have a match later on today. They are not eliminated. I have to bounce back quickly though

01:21:45.340 --> 01:21:48.800
Virtus. Pro showed them levels, but good as they have the experience. They have the talent

01:21:48.800 --> 01:21:51.560
They have to put it all together and they have to do it very very soon

01:21:51.560 --> 01:21:52.680
They will have to do it pretty soon

01:21:52.680 --> 01:21:57.800
I mean it was it was some spectacular gameplay though from beginning to end I think they went up 4-0 in game number one

01:21:57.800 --> 01:22:03.240
Virtus.pro for one in game two. They also pretty done like five seconds in in game one as well like VP

01:22:03.240 --> 01:22:07.320
They managed to when it you took a headset stuff like right. Let's go back to the green all this cool

01:22:07.320 --> 01:22:08.840
We had the shouting right behind us

01:22:08.840 --> 01:22:12.800
So they started as they meant to go on and three are very decisive to kick the day off

01:22:12.800 --> 01:22:14.400
I mean as we take a look at some of the highlights here

01:22:14.400 --> 01:22:18.920
We were talking about talking how good he was was there was any other notable players notable moments from this series

01:22:18.920 --> 01:22:23.600
For as we're learning about this world championship rosters. It was just a full team effort by VP

01:22:23.600 --> 01:22:29.540
I don't think like talk with a great double tap there, but it's just like they have full control this entire time game

01:22:29.540 --> 01:22:31.540
Three took a little bit to get going

01:22:31.900 --> 01:22:37.720
But besides that like VP just look incredibly comfortable out there. I mean there is comic opposed talkers

01:22:37.720 --> 01:22:40.240
We're coming in the series everything a highlight. He's on top of the ball

01:22:40.240 --> 01:22:45.920
He's going and it's exactly what you're talking about. Yes when the season began talk was taken over on redacted

01:22:45.920 --> 01:22:51.200
That's what I'm having that great great major and in this after that kind of like a lot

01:22:51.200 --> 01:22:53.180
There's like VP kind of fade into the background.

01:22:53.180 --> 01:22:55.100
What kind of took their place in the top 14

01:22:55.100 --> 01:22:57.140
run on the America, but if he's playing like this,

01:22:57.140 --> 01:22:59.280
I don't think they're going up against the Godes.

01:22:59.280 --> 01:23:00.620
But they play at this type of level.

01:23:00.620 --> 01:23:02.680
It's on the end of the night like, yes,

01:23:02.680 --> 01:23:05.420
they can beat anybody and they know that too.

01:23:05.420 --> 01:23:06.860
Although we'll have a match against Mother Etha

01:23:06.860 --> 01:23:09.120
but coming up a little bit later on today.

01:23:09.120 --> 01:23:10.660
We have more matches to go through,

01:23:10.660 --> 01:23:12.800
but there's also something in this for you folks.

01:23:12.800 --> 01:23:16.000
The drop rush is back here on Twitch and on TikTok.

01:23:16.000 --> 01:23:18.300
Now through the 20th year on Twitch

01:23:18.300 --> 01:23:19.800
and through the 28th on TikTok,

01:23:19.800 --> 01:23:25.240
You can earn rewards just by watching RLCS esports special rewards on championship Sunday

01:23:25.240 --> 01:23:28.160
So make sure you've got it pulled up for at least four hours a day

01:23:28.160 --> 01:23:31.020
If you want to get those drops every single day, especially our championship Sunday

01:23:31.020 --> 01:23:36.000
We got some fun inverted titanium white variants of the items you can get make sure you get those items

01:23:36.000 --> 01:23:37.800
So we've gotten for two of our matches

01:23:37.800 --> 01:23:42.360
We've got two more to go on the ultimate stream and four five more five more to go

01:23:42.360 --> 01:23:45.480
Excuse me three more to go in the open stream five more to go here on the stream

01:23:45.480 --> 01:23:47.560
I know it works over here as you can see money at that

01:23:47.560 --> 01:23:50.600
and Virgins probably will play against each other in that upper semi-final.

01:23:50.600 --> 01:23:53.560
Whoever wins that goes through to the groups.

01:23:53.560 --> 01:23:55.920
The loser will drop down to the lower semi-finals.

01:23:55.920 --> 01:23:58.000
They turn themselves two opportunities to make it through the groups.

01:23:58.000 --> 01:24:01.160
Yeah, so now we're going down to the brutal part of that quadrant

01:24:01.160 --> 01:24:04.600
where we're talking about all four of these teams have made waves throughout this year.

01:24:04.600 --> 01:24:08.160
So we'll see how it pans out, but we'll see how the all through the sheen later on.

01:24:08.160 --> 01:24:09.280
Five years in the grow days.

01:24:09.280 --> 01:24:11.240
So we'll see how that one pans out.

01:24:11.240 --> 01:24:12.640
The loser will be going home.

01:24:12.640 --> 01:24:15.920
The winner will still have a chance on the a-stream later on in the day.

01:24:15.920 --> 01:24:30.920
On our mainstream, we have Monty Toppin versus Pro coming up after the conclusion of our next match, the one everyone's eyes were drawn to the moment the playing bracket was solidified here, but he sports with Justin returning back to the World Championship taking on the Falcons.

01:24:30.920 --> 01:24:44.920
Exactly. And then the moment it happened, they're like, whoa, this is a big matchup. But then two months later, Falcons came out and EWC and they performed and a lot of question marks were answered by Falcons then, but I see WC now back at all CS and foot has been looking really solid.

01:24:44.920 --> 01:24:47.160
But not only that, we saw what Drowley like.

01:24:47.160 --> 01:24:47.880
He did an interview.

01:24:47.880 --> 01:24:49.720
He was like, we would have swept our old selves.

01:24:49.720 --> 01:24:52.480
We have figured out how to play Rocket League.

01:24:52.480 --> 01:24:56.280
And it showed they were so dominant throughout that EWC.

01:24:56.280 --> 01:24:59.280
They 4-0ed KC, 4-0ed Space Station.

01:24:59.280 --> 01:25:00.120
Now they get foot.

01:25:00.120 --> 01:25:00.400
Yeah.

01:25:00.400 --> 01:25:01.560
And I think that ultimately, when

01:25:01.560 --> 01:25:03.360
you look at how Falcons played at EWC,

01:25:03.360 --> 01:25:04.720
they were completely faultless.

01:25:04.720 --> 01:25:06.000
I think that a footlegged needs to be

01:25:06.000 --> 01:25:08.840
up a really good performance to make a dent in the Falcons.

01:25:08.840 --> 01:25:10.800
They looked unstoppable on their day.

01:25:10.800 --> 01:25:12.280
They've won the most recent LAN.

01:25:12.280 --> 01:25:16.000
And we've talked a lot about Monkey Moon returning to Dickey's arena.

01:25:16.000 --> 01:25:18.040
Last time we held a trophy on this stage,

01:25:18.040 --> 01:25:20.040
Jirali was there as well.

01:25:20.040 --> 01:25:21.880
And he's returned to defend that title.

01:25:24.760 --> 01:25:28.000
Boston Major was pretty good overall.

01:25:28.000 --> 01:25:29.200
Almost made the grand final.

01:25:29.200 --> 01:25:30.480
We were one go away.

01:25:30.480 --> 01:25:33.160
And then split two, we didn't make the major.

01:25:33.160 --> 01:25:37.080
So obviously that's the lowest low in my entire career.

01:25:37.080 --> 01:25:41.400
And then right after that, we bounced back and won EWC quite easily.

01:25:41.400 --> 01:25:45.720
the expression highs and lows sums it up perfectly.

01:25:45.720 --> 01:25:49.080
As always, we're going to have to be the best teams in the world,

01:25:49.080 --> 01:25:50.680
which isn't always easy.

01:25:50.680 --> 01:25:53.720
I think this time I'll be even more prepared than I was last time.

01:25:53.720 --> 01:25:57.520
Last time was my first RLCS LAN victory ever.

01:25:57.520 --> 01:25:59.720
This time I'm even more used to it

01:25:59.720 --> 01:26:01.880
and more dangerous than ever.

01:26:01.880 --> 01:26:06.360
If I win this one, I'll be one of the three

01:26:06.360 --> 01:26:08.360
the greatest Rocket League players of all time

01:26:08.360 --> 01:26:10.720
in terms of achievements.

01:26:10.720 --> 01:26:14.120
That would mean a lot to see Falcons win this

01:26:14.120 --> 01:26:17.160
because it's the greatest achievement in Rocket League.

01:26:17.160 --> 01:26:20.240
This World Championship is Falcons 2-1.

01:26:23.120 --> 01:26:25.400
You guys know this logo and this team,

01:26:25.400 --> 01:26:27.560
the Falcons, I'm here with coach Darum.

01:26:27.560 --> 01:26:30.560
Man, it is an interesting position

01:26:30.560 --> 01:26:31.720
for the Falcons to be in.

01:26:31.720 --> 01:26:33.520
Usually guys are on the top,

01:26:33.520 --> 01:26:35.200
but now you're playing through the play-ins.

01:26:35.200 --> 01:26:40.000
Does that change the dynamic for you guys at all and how you prepare?

01:26:40.000 --> 01:26:47.480
Of course, being in the plane, it's not the spot that we were like to be from the first

01:26:47.480 --> 01:26:48.480
of the season.

01:26:48.480 --> 01:26:54.520
But because of our struggles earlier, we are here and we have to earn our spot in

01:26:54.520 --> 01:26:55.520
the World Championship.

01:26:55.520 --> 01:26:56.520
That's good.

01:26:56.520 --> 01:26:59.960
I mean, all the teams that are at Worlds deserve to be at Worlds.

01:26:59.960 --> 01:27:03.840
But looking at the planes, you guys are definitely, in my opinion, and many others,

01:27:03.840 --> 01:27:04.840
one of the strongest teams.

01:27:04.840 --> 01:27:07.080
Are you guys concerned about the play-ins?

01:27:07.080 --> 01:27:10.840
Did you have to change anything against the teams you're in?

01:27:10.840 --> 01:27:13.840
Or does it feel like it should be easy for you guys to clear?

01:27:13.840 --> 01:27:17.840
It's not going to be easy. We have really tough teams.

01:27:17.840 --> 01:27:21.840
Against us today is not really easy.

01:27:21.840 --> 01:27:27.840
So we just have to stick to our basics, our play style, and keep the confidence high.

01:27:27.840 --> 01:27:31.840
No, that's fair. And that's all your job. You have to keep them together.

01:27:31.840 --> 01:27:36.720
How is the confidence right now? Obviously Wade just mentioned or someone who's mentioned on desk that you know

01:27:36.960 --> 01:27:40.480
Jolly, you know last time was here raising a trophy. There's a long journey

01:27:40.800 --> 01:27:44.880
Has the confidence been tough given that they're in play-ins or do they feel good?

01:27:45.200 --> 01:27:51.440
No, they feel good, especially after running the adbc everyone feeling confident. That's good. Hey, that's that's good to hear man

01:27:51.520 --> 01:27:56.160
Any any words right now obviously because falcons fans are always going to be strong and and look it out there

01:27:56.400 --> 01:28:01.280
Um, how any words for like the falcons fans watching you guys have to go through the play-ins and

01:28:01.280 --> 01:28:02.560
and have this dip.

01:28:02.560 --> 01:28:03.960
Falcon fans are the best.

01:28:03.960 --> 01:28:07.400
Man, I want to thank them for all the support.

01:28:07.400 --> 01:28:10.080
And I want to tell them we're going to do our best

01:28:10.080 --> 01:28:12.040
to bring the trophy home.

01:28:12.040 --> 01:28:13.640
Hey, well, we'll see if you guys can do that.

01:28:13.640 --> 01:28:15.600
But it starts in the play-ins for now,

01:28:15.600 --> 01:28:17.200
though, we've got to take out your opponents

01:28:17.200 --> 01:28:18.560
across the field here.

01:28:23.560 --> 01:28:25.280
Foot's years so far is very interesting,

01:28:25.280 --> 01:28:28.000
considering we restarted the season with zero points.

01:28:28.000 --> 01:28:29.760
The foot team was built for LCKU.

01:28:29.760 --> 01:28:31.080
We didn't have that much pressure.

01:28:31.080 --> 01:28:33.280
Besides maybe a few couple teams that, you know,

01:28:33.280 --> 01:28:35.760
maybe the Gen Gs and stuff that could maybe sneak in

01:28:35.760 --> 01:28:37.520
like a game or two here and there.

01:28:37.520 --> 01:28:39.200
So it's definitely a little scary for sure.

01:28:39.200 --> 01:28:40.240
But we had nothing but confidence.

01:28:40.240 --> 01:28:42.920
We know the abilities we all have individually as players

01:28:42.920 --> 01:28:44.560
and as a team and how good we can be.

01:28:44.560 --> 01:28:47.560
So we just went in there confident and it clearly shows.

01:28:48.480 --> 01:28:50.000
I think coming to this world,

01:28:50.000 --> 01:28:52.600
I want to do very well considering the past events

01:28:52.600 --> 01:28:54.000
haven't been too good,

01:28:54.000 --> 01:28:56.080
but we've shown that we have fight in us.

01:28:56.080 --> 01:28:57.960
We've been showing very good scrims

01:28:57.960 --> 01:28:59.200
against the top, top teams.

01:28:59.200 --> 01:29:00.320
I've been to a lot of worlds.

01:29:00.320 --> 01:29:01.400
I've won Worlds.

01:29:01.400 --> 01:29:02.760
I haven't lost a passion at all.

01:29:02.760 --> 01:29:05.680
I definitely am, I would say, a veteran in these situations.

01:29:05.680 --> 01:29:07.880
So I know kind of how to handle it.

01:29:07.880 --> 01:29:09.840
So I feel like on stage and when it matters,

01:29:09.840 --> 01:29:11.760
I could be the leader for Cheez & Chronic.

01:29:11.760 --> 01:29:14.400
And Chronic himself knows as well, because he's won majors.

01:29:14.400 --> 01:29:15.600
So I'm just hoping to get out of play-in

01:29:15.600 --> 01:29:18.520
and I think whoever we play first out of the play-in,

01:29:18.520 --> 01:29:19.760
I think we can confidently beat him

01:29:19.760 --> 01:29:21.080
and hopefully top eight.

01:29:21.080 --> 01:29:23.120
And then we'll just keep going from there.

01:29:26.320 --> 01:29:28.760
Well, I am now across the field on the other side here

01:29:28.760 --> 01:29:34.480
with a foot and Adam Begat, the coach, back in the squad, you know, I always love chat

01:29:34.480 --> 01:29:37.880
with you, you always have a good positive vibe to you. Have you been able to translate

01:29:37.880 --> 01:29:41.200
that with the squad? Are they also emanating that positivity right now?

01:29:41.200 --> 01:29:46.200
Yeah, absolutely. I think that the squad's a very happy right now to be here. Obviously,

01:29:46.200 --> 01:29:49.720
I think the matchups that we have in front of us might be more difficult than we anticipated

01:29:49.720 --> 01:29:54.440
initially. Overall, we're all really happy, excited to have the opportunity. Kronik

01:29:54.440 --> 01:29:58.520
is qualified for every LAN since he started being a pro player. It's just in seventh

01:29:58.520 --> 01:30:01.240
of all championship, so we're all really happy.

01:30:01.240 --> 01:30:04.200
Yeah, I did mention, I looked across there,

01:30:04.200 --> 01:30:05.320
that's the Falcons over there.

01:30:05.320 --> 01:30:06.160
Yeah, that's the Falcons.

01:30:06.160 --> 01:30:07.440
Well, what was the talks, I guess,

01:30:07.440 --> 01:30:09.760
going into this matchup with the squad?

01:30:09.760 --> 01:30:11.960
You know, was it a, we'll see what we can do?

01:30:11.960 --> 01:30:13.160
Is there is a, no, we'll do it?

01:30:13.160 --> 01:30:15.200
Like, what's the reality in the talks

01:30:15.200 --> 01:30:16.960
when you go into a tough matchup like this?

01:30:16.960 --> 01:30:18.320
Yeah, I think our entire season

01:30:18.320 --> 01:30:19.640
has been riddled with difficult matches.

01:30:19.640 --> 01:30:22.240
I mean, we had twisted Vitality KC in a group

01:30:22.240 --> 01:30:24.960
and then making it through the WCLC we played,

01:30:24.960 --> 01:30:26.480
twisted in the upper shop in the lower.

01:30:26.480 --> 01:30:28.480
So we've always had difficult matches.

01:30:28.480 --> 01:30:30.160
I wouldn't say we're approaching it any differently.

01:30:30.160 --> 01:30:32.760
I mean, in all the series that we have played against the top teams,

01:30:32.760 --> 01:30:33.960
it has been close.

01:30:33.960 --> 01:30:35.360
And I know that we are all capable,

01:30:35.360 --> 01:30:36.680
and we know we're capable.

01:30:36.680 --> 01:30:40.120
So there's no change in mindset, not just because it's Falcons.

01:30:40.120 --> 01:30:40.620
That's fair.

01:30:40.620 --> 01:30:43.000
And speaking of change, a lot of teams

01:30:43.000 --> 01:30:46.160
will probably want to come into a world with some consistency.

01:30:46.160 --> 01:30:48.720
But do you take the opportunity with these plans

01:30:48.720 --> 01:30:51.080
to give them the second life that's there or the extra games

01:30:51.080 --> 01:30:52.440
you play to try something new,

01:30:52.440 --> 01:30:54.480
or do you try to avoid that risk?

01:30:54.480 --> 01:30:55.840
I think we have a good thing going.

01:30:55.840 --> 01:30:57.920
I don't think we felt the need to try something new.

01:30:57.920 --> 01:31:02.560
Outgames have been pretty close against the top and I don't think it's the time right now to change it up

01:31:03.120 --> 01:31:07.120
Obviously we've had an issue with closing things out and I'm winning once you're close to the finish line

01:31:07.360 --> 01:31:10.160
But in the past two months, I think we have done a really good job of fixing that

01:31:10.320 --> 01:31:13.440
Hey, well, this is a real big test to you guys and I hope it goes well for you

01:31:13.600 --> 01:31:16.880
But we'll see falcons you on the other side. Good luck in your matchup. Thank you boss

01:31:19.120 --> 01:31:23.600
With this matchup so many different angles we get approached from I want to start with talking about

01:31:23.600 --> 01:31:27.360
foot here and some of the things that Justin said in that little video piece.

01:31:27.360 --> 01:31:29.520
He said that the team was built for the LCKQ.

01:31:29.520 --> 01:31:33.280
He said that this was an expectation for them to have to go through that qualifier

01:31:33.280 --> 01:31:34.820
to make it to this point, which makes sense.

01:31:34.820 --> 01:31:38.240
It gives me talking about the fact that this team was built after the Boston

01:31:38.240 --> 01:31:40.080
Major and had to sacrifice those points.

01:31:40.080 --> 01:31:44.040
Oh, absolutely. They built it like we're very likely no matter what we do

01:31:44.040 --> 01:31:46.680
for that power split, we're going to have to go through the LCKQ.

01:31:46.680 --> 01:31:50.360
We have to be good enough and our nerves have to be there to do it.

01:31:50.360 --> 01:31:53.480
Not only did they do that, then they go to EWC LCKQ.

01:31:53.480 --> 01:31:55.600
They also win that tournament as well.

01:31:55.600 --> 01:31:59.880
So these guys know how to win when everyone is fighting,

01:31:59.880 --> 01:32:02.240
but when they get to the next tier,

01:32:02.240 --> 01:32:03.560
it's always been a little difficult.

01:32:03.560 --> 01:32:05.360
They've come so close.

01:32:05.360 --> 01:32:06.640
We talked about it earlier.

01:32:06.640 --> 01:32:09.560
KC and Vitality in Paris, they went 3-2, 3-2.

01:32:09.560 --> 01:32:11.680
Lost on Champions Field both times.

01:32:11.680 --> 01:32:14.160
Back in EWC, they made it to that main event.

01:32:14.160 --> 01:32:15.920
They lost to Twisted Minds 3-1.

01:32:15.920 --> 01:32:18.320
They lost to Rebellion 4-3.

01:32:18.320 --> 01:32:21.440
They lost on Champions Field three times against these teams.

01:32:21.440 --> 01:32:23.320
They know they're right there.

01:32:23.320 --> 01:32:26.400
They just need that one extra thing to push them above.

01:32:26.400 --> 01:32:29.200
I mean, the fact that they were built for LCQs,

01:32:29.200 --> 01:32:32.240
we've seen them now in two LCQs, win those events,

01:32:32.240 --> 01:32:34.080
means according to them, everything's going according to plan.

01:32:34.080 --> 01:32:37.040
But the problem with being built for an LCQ is what comes next.

01:32:37.040 --> 01:32:39.320
And so far, we have not seen them take that next step,

01:32:39.320 --> 01:32:41.160
which leads me to the second thing I saw, Stubbe,

01:32:41.160 --> 01:32:43.520
that was surprising and notable to me that Justin said,

01:32:43.520 --> 01:32:46.760
was that he's so experienced at this event in particular.

01:32:46.760 --> 01:32:49.080
You heard his coach say that his seventh world championship

01:32:49.080 --> 01:32:50.360
and that he's ready to step up

01:32:50.360 --> 01:32:52.360
and be the leader for Cheese and Chronic,

01:32:52.360 --> 01:32:54.560
which is not a role, not a characteristic.

01:32:54.560 --> 01:32:56.400
When I think about Justin as a player,

01:32:56.400 --> 01:32:58.760
I think about him as the pop-off guy that the leader,

01:32:58.760 --> 01:33:01.200
the team captain's having to bolster up emotionally

01:33:01.200 --> 01:33:02.760
so that that player can be on fire.

01:33:02.760 --> 01:33:05.280
He's saying he's ready to pick up that leadership mantle,

01:33:05.280 --> 01:33:07.400
which is a surprising new chapter for Justin.

01:33:07.400 --> 01:33:09.080
Which I also really liked when he was saying,

01:33:09.080 --> 01:33:11.680
you know, I'm not trying to be this flashy player.

01:33:11.680 --> 01:33:14.240
I'm not trying to be all of this on the field.

01:33:14.240 --> 01:33:16.520
That's so opposite to what we all are

01:33:16.520 --> 01:33:17.920
through Justin with being.

01:33:17.920 --> 01:33:19.960
And it's really interesting to see how a player

01:33:19.960 --> 01:33:21.640
can develop throughout their career.

01:33:21.640 --> 01:33:24.360
They're saying about how well they do through our LCQs

01:33:24.360 --> 01:33:28.600
and the fact that Kronik has been to every land that he can qualify for since being a pro player.

01:33:28.600 --> 01:33:32.280
Fortunately for him, there have been issues once they reached the big dogs.

01:33:32.280 --> 01:33:35.240
During the RLCS 25 season, it was 56.

01:33:35.240 --> 01:33:39.800
That was the last really good result, a certain kickoff weekend, we could have a lot smaller.

01:33:39.800 --> 01:33:43.480
Otherwise, it's been 13th to 16th or 9th to 12th.

01:33:43.480 --> 01:33:47.080
It has been disappointing for Kronik unfortunately

01:33:47.080 --> 01:33:48.840
and trying to get him back in that swing,

01:33:48.840 --> 01:33:56.040
I think is something that mentally is going to be tough, but what a great time to be doing it. They did so well through the LCQs

01:33:56.040 --> 01:33:57.640
They must have a lot of belief in them

01:33:57.640 --> 01:34:04.840
But they need to look at this as its own tournament and then continue how they play into when they do play the big dogs

01:34:04.840 --> 01:34:11.560
Of which by the way falcons are because is one of them and their foot had to get the LCQ for

01:34:12.560 --> 01:34:14.560
Falcons won and they absolutely

01:34:14.560 --> 01:34:21.080
absolutely obliterated every opponent in their way. Falcons were the perfect team about a

01:34:21.080 --> 01:34:26.200
month and a half, two months ago, whatever it was. And I really do struggle to see what

01:34:26.200 --> 01:34:30.740
Falcons are going to be doing so rapidly differently that means that foot are going to be able

01:34:30.740 --> 01:34:32.240
to really make a big dent in them.

01:34:32.240 --> 01:34:35.040
I kind of want to, like, just while we have a second here, while the players are getting

01:34:35.040 --> 01:34:37.520
ready, let's talk about Falcons. Let's talk about Mina. Let's talk about this

01:34:37.520 --> 01:34:40.600
roster. In general, base, I feel like everybody's been looking at me like, oh, Falcons

01:34:40.600 --> 01:34:45.980
kind of fell off. But did they? They placed top four in Boston. Yeah. And then their region

01:34:45.980 --> 01:34:50.300
has just stepped up. We had with two teams and stallions and R8 that have come to play

01:34:50.300 --> 01:34:55.960
and have shown their ability to play at multiple events now. And then they are the LWC winners.

01:34:55.960 --> 01:35:00.840
Is this team actually struggling right now? I wouldn't necessarily quantify as struggling.

01:35:00.840 --> 01:35:04.280
I was just saying it's different when we showed all the players across to see the

01:35:04.280 --> 01:35:08.880
twins, their best RCS worlds finish was second. That was last year. They had

01:35:08.880 --> 01:35:11.720
They brought in Drolley for these type of reasons.

01:35:11.720 --> 01:35:16.960
You know why his best RCS world's finish is first and also his best EWC finish was first

01:35:16.960 --> 01:35:20.680
and at this point, that's the big question mark for Falcons.

01:35:20.680 --> 01:35:21.680
You made these changes.

01:35:21.680 --> 01:35:27.720
You made the TRK for Drolley switch for two reasons, EWC and RCS world championship.

01:35:27.720 --> 01:35:28.720
You got one.

01:35:28.720 --> 01:35:29.720
None.

01:35:29.720 --> 01:35:30.720
Now you're trying to get the second one.

01:35:30.720 --> 01:35:31.840
And not only that, we talked about Falcons.

01:35:31.840 --> 01:35:33.160
It's been a disappointing year.

01:35:33.160 --> 01:35:34.320
Not internationally.

01:35:34.320 --> 01:35:37.640
The only reason why they weren't at Paris was because of RA.

01:35:37.640 --> 01:35:40.720
So R8 is the only team that would take them down.

01:35:40.720 --> 01:35:43.440
And then, but when they go to international events,

01:35:43.440 --> 01:35:44.560
like we talked about Boston Major,

01:35:44.560 --> 01:35:47.280
what the game went all the way to Champions field,

01:35:47.280 --> 01:35:48.240
lost to the Mates.

01:35:48.240 --> 01:35:50.160
So they could easily won that tournament as well.

01:35:50.160 --> 01:35:51.680
Speaking of which, though,

01:35:51.680 --> 01:35:54.600
R8 currently playing on the alternate stream,

01:35:54.600 --> 01:35:56.200
dropped game one to TSM.

01:35:56.200 --> 01:35:59.800
TSM 1-0 in that first match on the alternate stream,

01:35:59.800 --> 01:36:01.040
push.tv.search.reports.

01:36:01.040 --> 01:36:02.920
Make sure you have it up so you can check it out.

01:36:02.920 --> 01:36:04.000
How much is it depth?

01:36:04.000 --> 01:36:05.880
How much is TSM popping off right now?

01:36:05.880 --> 01:36:06.960
Oh, I love that we get a key

01:36:06.960 --> 01:36:08.240
Continue to ask these questions.

01:36:08.240 --> 01:36:10.040
I mean, yeah, that's the big question mark

01:36:10.040 --> 01:36:10.880
about Mina in general.

01:36:10.880 --> 01:36:12.840
Because Falcons, I mean, you have

01:36:12.840 --> 01:36:15.200
such a chemistry on the old team at TRK and the twins.

01:36:15.200 --> 01:36:16.800
And that's what you were trying to replicate.

01:36:16.800 --> 01:36:18.360
You had to build something new, I think,

01:36:18.360 --> 01:36:19.480
with Drowley and the twins.

01:36:19.480 --> 01:36:20.240
And that took time.

01:36:20.240 --> 01:36:21.600
And then Drowley talking about it

01:36:21.600 --> 01:36:23.880
saying, we would sweep our old selves.

01:36:23.880 --> 01:36:24.640
That means something.

01:36:24.640 --> 01:36:25.680
The way he's talking about it is,

01:36:25.680 --> 01:36:26.840
we just simply want that level.

01:36:26.840 --> 01:36:28.000
We had all the pieces.

01:36:28.000 --> 01:36:30.760
But we hadn't put the puzzle together just yet.

01:36:30.760 --> 01:36:31.680
Now they're in sync.

01:36:31.680 --> 01:36:32.760
And now they're looking really great.

01:36:32.760 --> 01:36:33.800
And it's going to be a big test, too.

01:36:33.800 --> 01:36:34.800
But I'm going to get some push squad.

01:36:34.800 --> 01:36:36.640
It's nice as well to kind of hold up the mirror full.

01:36:36.960 --> 01:36:40.800
last season, especially when

01:36:40.800 --> 01:36:41.960
you look towards Charlie on the

01:36:41.960 --> 01:36:43.800
previous BDS roster where BDS

01:36:43.800 --> 01:36:44.960
last season have quite

01:36:44.960 --> 01:36:45.960
disappointing start of the year.

01:36:45.960 --> 01:36:47.400
They were having issues and

01:36:47.400 --> 01:36:48.960
then they went through and then

01:36:48.960 --> 01:36:50.400
obviously, Charlie with that BDS

01:36:50.400 --> 01:36:52.000
team, one EWC and then they

01:36:52.000 --> 01:36:53.400
managed to all two years go

01:36:53.400 --> 01:36:54.400
rather than managed to take

01:36:54.400 --> 01:36:55.600
down the world championship.

01:36:55.600 --> 01:36:57.040
They did that back to the back

01:36:57.040 --> 01:36:58.840
to back and then you've got

01:36:58.840 --> 01:37:00.040
it this year trying to enjoy

01:37:00.040 --> 01:37:01.040
new team that has a little

01:37:01.040 --> 01:37:02.040
bit of disappointing start

01:37:02.040 --> 01:37:03.040
and then don't make ages,

01:37:03.040 --> 01:37:05.040
which is crazy and then they

01:37:05.040 --> 01:37:06.040
would need to be C and now

01:37:06.040 --> 01:37:13.640
that you can draw between. So past Charlie and now I want to point out one note here though gives because I think a lot of people are looking at EWC.

01:37:13.640 --> 01:37:18.440
They're looking at Falcons winning, especially winning that final four. Oh, they were so, so strong at WC.

01:37:18.440 --> 01:37:23.540
I think a lot of people with a lot of recency bias will look at the falcons say they're the clear favorites to win the World Championship.

01:37:23.540 --> 01:37:32.440
And yet they are overlooking the fact that the road to that championship that grand finals match is longer for the Falcons than it is for every other favorite in this tournament.

01:37:32.440 --> 01:37:33.940
None of them have to play today.

01:37:33.940 --> 01:37:37.300
Yeah, which has never happened before that are sort of a favorite plane in the playing

01:37:37.300 --> 01:37:42.020
I don't think that hurts them yet because I think they make it through this plane that rather easily

01:37:42.500 --> 01:37:46.420
But no matter what group they get that group is now the group of death

01:37:46.900 --> 01:37:50.340
Because they're going to be the fourth best team in terms of power seeds, you know

01:37:50.580 --> 01:37:53.940
So falcons are going to have a brutal group if they do make it out

01:37:54.020 --> 01:37:56.500
So it is going to be a hard road for them

01:37:56.900 --> 01:38:01.140
But because of how dominant they were at the university not only 4 0 versus spaces in the final

01:38:01.140 --> 01:38:05.500
They also had the top quadrant where all four teams probably the top four in the world

01:38:05.580 --> 01:38:09.500
They came out of that they took down twist of minds that they for okay corp as well

01:38:09.500 --> 01:38:11.020
No, which is a huge accomplishment

01:38:11.020 --> 01:38:15.780
They're gonna be playing into the group of death which at that point their tournament starts the same as everybody else's

01:38:15.780 --> 01:38:18.260
But they have to play just an entire extra day here baits

01:38:18.260 --> 01:38:21.580
I feel like you probably have the most experience on this desk that would maybe be able to speak to this

01:38:21.580 --> 01:38:23.580
How much does playing a

01:38:23.900 --> 01:38:29.540
Versus all right playing a five-day tournament factor into your overall tournament viability. I'm such a hater man

01:38:29.540 --> 01:38:32.420
and stuff. You know, my bad. You're only about 16. Hey, I

01:38:32.420 --> 01:38:34.380
know what I mean. Stay with us. I also want to show much.

01:38:34.380 --> 01:38:36.180
We're on the same level of second. Oh, that's not what

01:38:36.180 --> 01:38:38.060
you're saying. Wait up. Never mind. I'm gonna stop right

01:38:38.060 --> 01:38:40.060
there. I will say that six days was five days. I'm

01:38:40.060 --> 01:38:42.580
thinking about it. Don't do that. Yeah. Not not this

01:38:42.580 --> 01:38:44.340
level. I don't think it's because it's the plan. It's

01:38:44.340 --> 01:38:46.220
just different level. We're not going to get the energy

01:38:46.220 --> 01:38:47.540
or it's how they call my right here. You're not

01:38:47.540 --> 01:38:49.780
gonna have a strenuous day technically in a way. This

01:38:49.780 --> 01:38:52.020
might be Falcon's toughest competition of the day and

01:38:52.020 --> 01:38:53.420
they could potentially sweep it. It might just be a

01:38:53.420 --> 01:38:55.740
blend and then they get really focused and locked in for

01:38:55.740 --> 01:38:58.580
the Wednesday, aka the World Championship main event.

01:38:58.580 --> 01:38:59.980
So I think they'll be just fine honestly.

01:38:59.980 --> 01:39:02.580
I don't really think there's going to be any fatigue for any of these squads.

01:39:02.580 --> 01:39:04.580
You think there's any chance it turns into momentum for them?

01:39:04.580 --> 01:39:06.580
Momentum? I don't think it's really going to affect the momentum.

01:39:06.580 --> 01:39:09.580
I'll be honest. I just think they kind of expect to come in here.

01:39:09.580 --> 01:39:12.580
If I'm Falcons, I expect to come in. I expect to get the job done.

01:39:12.580 --> 01:39:14.580
And I expect to really start focusing in on the big dog event,

01:39:14.580 --> 01:39:16.580
which is going to be whatever group they end up in tomorrow.

01:39:16.580 --> 01:39:18.580
Folks, let us know who you think is going to win

01:39:18.580 --> 01:39:20.580
and Beressa Fambo will make our picks on the desk.

01:39:20.580 --> 01:39:22.580
Stumpy, you got to write the first time around.

01:39:22.580 --> 01:39:24.580
We all got it right. Congratulations, Chad.

01:39:24.580 --> 01:39:26.580
If you picked, let's throw that first match here.

01:39:26.580 --> 01:39:34.340
here. So who you got here? Falcons. Wow. I think that it would be a very, very large upset if Falcons

01:39:34.340 --> 01:39:38.820
ended up losing this one. And then they've got a lot of experience, etc. Blah, blah, blah, Falcons.

01:39:38.820 --> 01:39:43.620
I mean, the fanboy Falcons are my favorite team and they will even better than last year at this

01:39:43.620 --> 01:39:48.740
point. I'm going Falcons. Okay. Has he always been Falcons? I think he's picked Falcons a lot.

01:39:50.900 --> 01:39:54.100
My heart really wants to go afoot. God, I think they've had some great

01:39:54.100 --> 01:39:59.240
stories throughout the season, but my mind, my brain says to go with them Falcons.

01:39:59.240 --> 01:40:00.480
So I'm gonna pick Falcons right here.

01:40:00.480 --> 01:40:01.840
I think it might go game five.

01:40:01.840 --> 01:40:02.600
I like that.

01:40:02.600 --> 01:40:05.820
I would love to see it go to game five, but there is a clear favor that EWC

01:40:05.820 --> 01:40:07.080
champs are in the building.

01:40:07.080 --> 01:40:08.920
I've got Falcons there as well, folks.

01:40:08.920 --> 01:40:10.280
How does the coin feel about it?

01:40:10.280 --> 01:40:12.640
Put on one side Falcons on the other end of the air and

01:40:12.640 --> 01:40:16.760
it's gonna come up for Falcons a clean sweep twice in a row here on the desk.

01:40:16.760 --> 01:40:18.120
Will we be correct yet again?

01:40:18.120 --> 01:40:22.600
Or do we start off the shenanigans of the world championship on match number two?

01:40:22.600 --> 01:40:23.560
It would be fun.

01:40:23.560 --> 01:40:24.520
It will be fun.

01:40:24.520 --> 01:40:27.520
This will be the time you watch Falcons match one,

01:40:27.520 --> 01:40:32.280
maybe they come out a little cold and see what they can do.

01:40:32.280 --> 01:40:33.600
Because they're going to have confidence.

01:40:33.600 --> 01:40:35.240
They're going to be going into it,

01:40:35.240 --> 01:40:37.600
the old energy style, laughing while they're scoring.

01:40:37.600 --> 01:40:40.400
So that is what foot is going to try and do here to Falcons.

01:40:40.400 --> 01:40:41.880
They know they're massive underdogs.

01:40:41.880 --> 01:40:46.160
I do feel like there is a weird mindset difference

01:40:46.160 --> 01:40:49.040
between these two, like the mindset of how seriously

01:40:49.040 --> 01:40:50.600
these two teams are approaching this matchup.

01:40:50.600 --> 01:40:51.920
One to say, hey, let's just have fun.

01:40:51.920 --> 01:40:52.440
Let's do that.

01:40:52.440 --> 01:40:58.880
We must win this match. We offer no mercy and wildly I think it is the correct decision for both teams

01:40:58.880 --> 01:41:03.240
They are in the correct mentality for each other have they been able to line up or it were to find out your folks

01:41:03.880 --> 01:41:09.560
52% says Falcons that tells you how many people want to see Justin Kronik and cheese pull this one off

01:41:09.560 --> 01:41:12.180
Can they do it here folks on match number two?

01:41:13.400 --> 01:41:17.320
An incredible way to start things off. We've had sweeps so far

01:41:17.320 --> 01:41:22.320
are hopefully the champions feel here in match number two Falcons versus foot for match number two

01:41:22.320 --> 01:41:25.320
World Champion

01:41:26.320 --> 01:41:31.320
We do not award the world championship to the most consistent team of the year

01:41:31.320 --> 01:41:35.320
We award it to the team that peaks at the right time

01:41:35.320 --> 01:41:40.320
And so often Johnny Boy does that end up being the winning team

01:41:40.320 --> 01:41:41.320
We saw that two years ago

01:41:41.320 --> 01:41:43.320
We might see it again two years later

01:41:43.320 --> 01:41:45.320
Game one brought to you by progressive

01:41:45.320 --> 01:41:51.440
Progressive. Yeah, so last year as well, and he describes very much every world championship in the open era there

01:41:51.440 --> 01:41:55.720
We've had many teams that the start of the season at the best team and end there

01:41:55.720 --> 01:42:01.920
Maybe BDS became back in but even they had a massive blend and also a lot of roster change. Yeah. Yeah

01:42:03.080 --> 01:42:06.920
It's never been twice in a row. It's so hard to win two lands in a row

01:42:07.440 --> 01:42:12.120
With how Valence at home, but apparently we've got in the process now

01:42:12.120 --> 01:42:20.720
But I think that we've read a good summary of them from the players themselves, very honest

01:42:20.720 --> 01:42:24.160
with their own assessment of where they are in the scene.

01:42:24.160 --> 01:42:28.960
They've got potential, they've shown signs that they can take games and be competitive

01:42:28.960 --> 01:42:29.960
against just about anyone.

01:42:29.960 --> 01:42:32.760
And they expect them to do that against Vulcans here.

01:42:32.760 --> 01:42:36.800
But this is a tough draw for them, and it's the worst possible draw against the

01:42:36.800 --> 01:42:37.800
UWC champs.

01:42:37.800 --> 01:42:40.240
He's already got the reset, he's going to go into the fight right?

01:42:41.240 --> 01:42:44.320
Cronik infield, Justin, how brave is he to feel by diving in on that one?

01:42:44.320 --> 01:42:47.400
Not great enough, that is what we want to get through, I don't know if that's even a better position.

01:42:47.960 --> 01:42:50.640
Drowley doesn't get the reset, instead leaves it for his teammate.

01:42:50.640 --> 01:42:53.200
Good possible sense for Cronik, that should be safe for now.

01:42:54.760 --> 01:42:59.840
If a foots, I mean, they've just always had to try and climb to that next level.

01:43:00.480 --> 01:43:03.800
Think if you just change the naming of this part of the tournament, as said,

01:43:03.800 --> 01:43:07.800
Okay, it's another last chance qualifier. They might actually be 5,000 this one.

01:43:07.800 --> 01:43:11.800
With that wins, it's the last set before the World's Elbow Pay chance here for Chronic.

01:43:11.800 --> 01:43:13.800
Double tap, no descendants in for 1-0.

01:43:13.800 --> 01:43:14.800
He takes it!

01:43:14.800 --> 01:43:15.800
But...

01:43:16.800 --> 01:43:19.800
Decisive, they didn't force this attack at all. They were so patient.

01:43:20.800 --> 01:43:21.800
With the build-up,

01:43:21.800 --> 01:43:24.800
Anklers couldn't get the save on the overhead.

01:43:24.800 --> 01:43:25.800
One-0 to the underdogs.

01:43:25.800 --> 01:43:28.800
It was a very rare occasion while I got to stab those boosts, so there's a running lot of them.

01:43:28.800 --> 01:43:32.800
Falcons had nobody back for it. Everyone on the goal line...

01:43:32.800 --> 01:43:36.760
I play like price can see that just go okay I'm going up there and you're not

01:43:36.760 --> 01:43:41.820
gonna be able to reach me. Kill us. Just try to test cheese. Who believes that

01:43:41.820 --> 01:43:46.720
for just in great touch. More and more devils are coming through.

01:43:46.720 --> 01:43:51.600
This could get me just way a little bit. Not the best option cheese. Actually it's a fantastic pass.

01:43:51.600 --> 01:43:55.800
Just it. Lovely. It's just me so fast at the moment I've got it.

01:43:55.800 --> 01:43:58.480
and I'm not waiting for invitation.

01:43:58.480 --> 01:43:59.600
Yeah, perfect.

01:43:59.600 --> 01:44:01.600
Flickle so far.

01:44:01.600 --> 01:44:02.800
Hardly put.

01:44:02.800 --> 01:44:05.000
Any wheel drunk in the midfield.

01:44:05.000 --> 01:44:07.000
Just seemed to defend exceptionally well,

01:44:07.000 --> 01:44:09.400
and they put the stronger part of the game as their defense,

01:44:09.400 --> 01:44:11.200
so this could be tough for Vulcans to come back.

01:44:11.200 --> 01:44:12.400
It's almost two.

01:44:12.400 --> 01:44:14.600
Justin threatened with a reset.

01:44:14.600 --> 01:44:17.000
Vulcans have also shorted up on their defensive weaknesses

01:44:17.000 --> 01:44:19.800
that were previously widely known.

01:44:19.800 --> 01:44:21.600
Drally on the roster.

01:44:21.600 --> 01:44:23.600
Barnhardt is a score off.

01:44:23.600 --> 01:44:24.600
F***ing...

01:44:24.600 --> 01:44:26.600
I mean, ass there in the middle of the first half!

01:44:26.600 --> 01:44:27.600
That's gonna be 2-0!

01:44:27.600 --> 01:44:28.600
Jeez!

01:44:28.600 --> 01:44:30.600
Genshin's felt his absiton!

01:44:30.600 --> 01:44:32.600
And they've been warned about this!

01:44:32.600 --> 01:44:35.600
Well, this passing play is not the first time

01:44:35.600 --> 01:44:37.600
that Foot have gone for this!

01:44:37.600 --> 01:44:39.600
2-0!

01:44:39.600 --> 01:44:40.600
And I've got to say, Drain,

01:44:40.600 --> 01:44:43.600
the way Foot are challenging for each other,

01:44:43.600 --> 01:44:44.600
there is always just...

01:44:44.600 --> 01:44:46.600
I'm gonna lose the 50,

01:44:46.600 --> 01:44:49.600
but I'm gonna make your life so much easier afterwards!

01:44:49.600 --> 01:44:51.600
Okay, this is where I fake kickoff Foot.

01:44:51.600 --> 01:44:55.600
I'm just sitting on the ball, air-gibberish, it was drally.

01:44:55.600 --> 01:45:02.600
Vulcans completely come out of position as foot passed the ball out of defence.

01:45:02.600 --> 01:45:04.600
They've done so well, widening each other in the pitch,

01:45:04.600 --> 01:45:07.600
and like you said, losing 50 backboards each other.

01:45:07.600 --> 01:45:11.600
I was really impressed by some of his back passes at East Boys World Cup,

01:45:11.600 --> 01:45:14.600
but, you know, they went last, they went to the back,

01:45:14.600 --> 01:45:16.600
but it was against Shopify, it twisted my,

01:45:16.600 --> 01:45:19.600
and said, they're looking at the door for looking for a third.

01:45:19.600 --> 01:45:22.100
Vulcan's a bit completely outplayed for three minutes.

01:45:22.900 --> 01:45:26.100
I do not care about all the recent results, uh...

01:45:27.600 --> 01:45:30.600
Don't be arguing, yeah, we've both won tournaments at EWC.

01:45:30.900 --> 01:45:32.600
Yours might paint a little bit more of that.

01:45:34.100 --> 01:45:36.100
Still wet and difficult to work.

01:45:36.100 --> 01:45:38.100
Still beat stallions in my grand final.

01:45:38.600 --> 01:45:40.600
Now Cronik, the Palace is just on.

01:45:40.600 --> 01:45:41.100
Oh...

01:45:41.100 --> 01:45:44.100
Didn't like how on too much though, it gives a little bit too much of the ball.

01:45:44.600 --> 01:45:45.600
That was a killer's.

01:45:46.100 --> 01:45:46.600
Lovely.

01:45:46.600 --> 01:45:47.100
It's just good.

01:45:47.100 --> 01:45:49.820
You should always lose it, just straight to an enemy team mate.

01:45:49.820 --> 01:45:52.620
They did such a good job moving about laterally foot,

01:45:52.620 --> 01:45:55.820
switching the play left to right with 50-50s as passes.

01:45:56.540 --> 01:46:00.700
They've got options in both directions in a lot of these transition attempts.

01:46:00.700 --> 01:46:02.700
The pumpkins are having a hard time.

01:46:02.700 --> 01:46:07.420
Keep it footboxed in, they can't seem to pressure them for an extended period.

01:46:07.420 --> 01:46:09.900
They're going to keep that confidence up there because

01:46:09.900 --> 01:46:13.580
if it ever goes wrong, it can be very easy to stop the shell up again.

01:46:13.580 --> 01:46:18.580
not allows him to be in position to be passed to.

01:46:18.580 --> 01:46:22.580
But a remaining cop for that has Justin swipes away the opportunity.

01:46:22.580 --> 01:46:28.580
2-0, I-1, I stand corrected and just don't remain at left.

01:46:28.580 --> 01:46:32.580
It was an extended period of pressure, the first one that Coppins have had.

01:46:32.580 --> 01:46:38.580
Justin, although he easily downed the initial chance, he didn't get back to the ball and that was key there.

01:46:38.580 --> 01:46:41.580
He probably thought it wasn't in a strikeable position.

01:46:41.580 --> 01:46:45.580
Jiralli makes him well aware of the opposite.

01:46:45.580 --> 01:46:46.580
That could be super hard.

01:46:46.580 --> 01:46:48.580
It's Ryus 50's that low that's gone wide.

01:46:48.580 --> 01:46:49.580
Cheese gets down on it.

01:46:49.580 --> 01:46:52.580
Justin has to control this again, but he loses it.

01:46:52.580 --> 01:46:54.580
Oh, Justin's really struggling in that corner.

01:46:54.580 --> 01:46:55.580
I don't want to stop.

01:46:55.580 --> 01:46:59.580
But Justin's got to stop being, I want to say, lazy Rocket League in that corner.

01:46:59.580 --> 01:47:00.580
He's popping it out.

01:47:00.580 --> 01:47:02.580
He's not falling.

01:47:02.580 --> 01:47:05.580
And it's always got his team core twice in a row.

01:47:05.580 --> 01:47:06.580
Stuck in the corner.

01:47:06.580 --> 01:47:07.580
Pounces out.

01:47:07.580 --> 01:47:09.580
Ryus hasn't got the boost to go for this.

01:47:09.580 --> 01:47:10.580
Cheese does.

01:47:10.580 --> 01:47:14.380
He's going to watch some sort of fear now, but no, he's going to him.

01:47:14.380 --> 01:47:16.380
He goes to the backboard, but Ross will cover.

01:47:16.380 --> 01:47:20.380
Just 30 seconds left for Fertz to hang on.

01:47:20.380 --> 01:47:22.380
Gun ball in a good position here.

01:47:22.380 --> 01:47:25.380
See, just tried to make it to the finish line.

01:47:25.380 --> 01:47:27.380
He's got a great force there by Cheese.

01:47:27.380 --> 01:47:29.380
Justin should have this, and he does.

01:47:29.380 --> 01:47:31.380
Ross, booseless at the halfway line.

01:47:31.380 --> 01:47:33.380
Unable to get back in, it might be three.

01:47:33.380 --> 01:47:34.380
It is!

01:47:34.380 --> 01:47:35.380
Adjusted!

01:47:35.380 --> 01:47:37.380
He'll tell me go light.

01:47:37.380 --> 01:47:42.380
But it just died, you know if you're watching, you have to try and send something.

01:47:43.380 --> 01:47:45.380
Nobody back, having close.

01:47:46.380 --> 01:47:49.380
The comfort, the cushion, back in their hands.

01:47:50.380 --> 01:47:52.380
Vulcans are gonna have to do something off the kickoff.

01:47:53.380 --> 01:47:57.380
And it's written about the barrier of the kickoffs, in my opinion, so far.

01:47:58.380 --> 01:48:00.380
This isn't gonna go Vulcans' way either.

01:48:00.380 --> 01:48:03.380
Already, Upsets coming through the play-in.

01:48:03.380 --> 01:48:13.380
The DSM taking game 1 against Arley, but taking game 1 against Valkyrie, the meta teams, the favourites to make it through, both struggling early on.

01:48:15.380 --> 01:48:18.380
What a performance from PUT Esports.

01:48:19.380 --> 01:48:32.380
Again, I think it's just all in the way that they are trusting one another right now. The only goal they conceded, yes, it was often extended bit of pressure, but it was silly from Justin to give it away like that.

01:48:32.380 --> 01:48:36.820
the other. They've not actually

01:48:36.820 --> 01:48:37.820
shown any other weaknesses. No,

01:48:37.820 --> 01:48:39.820
just looking just again. Just

01:48:39.820 --> 01:48:41.820
don't do that again and we're

01:48:41.820 --> 01:48:43.820
okay. Yeah, but they didn't

01:48:43.820 --> 01:48:45.820
really make many mistakes.

01:48:45.820 --> 01:48:47.820
Falcons were extremely consistent.

01:48:47.820 --> 01:48:49.820
They were very solid at EWC, the

01:48:49.820 --> 01:48:51.820
event that they won, especially

01:48:51.820 --> 01:48:53.820
when it got to champ Sunday

01:48:53.820 --> 01:48:55.820
shot every single time we get

01:48:55.820 --> 01:48:57.820
here is gonna be 50 that goes

01:48:57.820 --> 01:48:59.820
straight back and then that's

01:48:59.820 --> 01:49:01.820
the key play because Justin

01:49:01.820 --> 01:49:06.820
the game. The game is going to

01:49:06.820 --> 01:49:07.820
be a very, very, very, very

01:49:07.820 --> 01:49:09.820
important. The Falcons story,

01:49:09.820 --> 01:49:10.820
but Falcons were caught out on

01:49:10.820 --> 01:49:11.820
transition to country title

01:49:11.820 --> 01:49:12.820
to escape. What passing play

01:49:12.820 --> 01:49:15.820
one chased down from Justin

01:49:15.820 --> 01:49:17.820
three once a. And it is all

01:49:17.820 --> 01:49:18.820
best vibes. It's been like this

01:49:18.820 --> 01:49:19.820
can happen very, very quickly.

01:49:19.820 --> 01:49:20.820
I understand that people say,

01:49:20.820 --> 01:49:21.820
Oh, luckily can be very

01:49:21.820 --> 01:49:23.820
reactionary sport. It's 15

01:49:23.820 --> 01:49:25.820
minutes to lose. That's it

01:49:25.820 --> 01:49:26.820
when you get some of this

01:49:26.820 --> 01:49:27.820
and it could be an awful. I

01:49:27.820 --> 01:49:29.820
mean, losers of this round.

01:49:29.820 --> 01:49:30.820
Play against each other and

01:49:30.820 --> 01:49:39.820
But let's say this timeline continues and we have an R8 Falcons, the first round elimination match.

01:49:39.820 --> 01:49:44.820
I think that's a nightmare match for Falcons to be honest because they've had tricky times against R8.

01:49:44.820 --> 01:49:49.820
They've been growing online, they've been slowly improving, they've been on event.

01:49:49.820 --> 01:49:53.820
One of the youngest teams in the world, but well played by Justin.

01:49:53.820 --> 01:49:55.820
Got my favorite player, Gazi.

01:49:55.820 --> 01:50:00.820
Focus needs to try to look out for those foot-counter attacks.

01:50:00.820 --> 01:50:04.820
That's mostly what caught them in the first game.

01:50:04.820 --> 01:50:06.820
The ambivalents stand against this foot.

01:50:06.820 --> 01:50:08.820
They light up, they cover rotation for each other really well.

01:50:08.820 --> 01:50:10.820
They challenge really well.

01:50:10.820 --> 01:50:13.820
They back-pass, they pass out defence to a very high level.

01:50:13.820 --> 01:50:17.820
And you know, they're just not as bad as the results were suggested.

01:50:17.820 --> 01:50:19.820
They're actually a really good team.

01:50:19.820 --> 01:50:21.820
They're trying to get me to play their playing right now.

01:50:21.820 --> 01:50:23.820
A lot of that Copenhagen gents makes team.

01:50:23.820 --> 01:50:30.060
Ah, one out of them. Just always wait for one another, just in his loitering back there.

01:50:30.060 --> 01:50:35.580
As I came there, right, maybe that time like it's not as much to worry about the heart.

01:50:36.940 --> 01:50:40.540
That was an interesting example there by the loiterers, does manage to get the ball towards thralley.

01:50:41.900 --> 01:50:46.060
And like I said, the best of five just beats this such an important game too.

01:50:46.060 --> 01:50:50.540
As foot again, look for that lateral movement, and see, advance to the ball.

01:50:50.540 --> 01:50:56.500
Well kids are in a pretty deep position here. Doesn't look like they're confident leaving their goal area

01:50:57.140 --> 01:50:59.340
That's what a couple of counterattacks in game what'll do

01:50:59.340 --> 01:51:05.860
They help his lineup down there afraid to push more a great demo again by foot who can see it's only about the better team in the matchup

01:51:05.860 --> 01:51:10.420
They're gonna drop the block. Drops down is a really good job there from the defender. Relax

01:51:10.980 --> 01:51:12.740
Pumped it away

01:51:12.740 --> 01:51:17.740
Drop down pass yet again. That was just straight to draw. Okay, chronic, maybe a little bit too half-mazzards

01:51:17.740 --> 01:51:23.740
And now, it's all with Gs. That's well, what's the follow?

01:51:23.740 --> 01:51:26.740
I'm able to, can this done very well with this?

01:51:27.740 --> 01:51:33.740
Just to straight back in, and Gs once again have dealt with the problem.

01:51:33.740 --> 01:51:36.740
Rally! Shot a lot of that, and has he fired it again?

01:51:36.740 --> 01:51:39.740
Yes he has! Just the outpace!

01:51:39.740 --> 01:51:42.740
Well, just inside. Two minutes gone.

01:51:42.740 --> 01:51:47.740
So Raleigh beats Jeezy a bunch of clears, quick to follow as well.

01:51:47.740 --> 01:51:49.740
That was speed from Vulcans.

01:51:49.740 --> 01:51:52.740
He'll consider himself some more mechanical team in the matchup.

01:51:52.740 --> 01:51:56.740
He'll consider himself some more mechanical team in just about any matchup.

01:51:56.740 --> 01:51:57.740
That was quick though.

01:51:57.740 --> 01:51:58.740
I think the pause barely moved.

01:51:58.740 --> 01:51:59.740
There's Bison in the center circle.

01:51:59.740 --> 01:52:01.740
Here comes Justin. Good 50 by him.

01:52:01.740 --> 01:52:02.740
Oh Jesus, Bruce. Let's get up for this.

01:52:02.740 --> 01:52:04.740
Her last bid to Raleigh.

01:52:04.740 --> 01:52:06.740
Good jump shot down there by Jeezy.

01:52:06.740 --> 01:52:07.740
Stayed in the play.

01:52:07.740 --> 01:52:10.740
He's completely zero for a moment.

01:52:10.740 --> 01:52:13.540
I was going to try and find a way to get this one somewhat dangerous.

01:52:13.540 --> 01:52:16.940
I'm trying to just play around with everybody, really picked up his level.

01:52:18.940 --> 01:52:22.540
If he's just going to start adribing this, I don't think that's a bad idea at all.

01:52:23.940 --> 01:52:25.940
It's not going to have to find its way in, jeez.

01:52:26.240 --> 01:52:27.240
I'm trying to get the follow.

01:52:27.940 --> 01:52:30.740
It's fine, but fuck, it's not going to have to chase this right now.

01:52:30.740 --> 01:52:32.740
It's going to make them really difficult to break down.

01:52:33.940 --> 01:52:35.740
Instead of fucking with the lead dodge,

01:52:35.740 --> 01:52:39.340
I can't get the outplay to relax this side to trolley.

01:52:39.340 --> 01:52:43.420
This is very similar to the previous goal to save in the touch and then use it

01:52:43.420 --> 01:52:46.360
It's getting the ball fast defender big mess of my cheese

01:52:46.360 --> 01:52:51.460
Probably the first big mess you've seen from foot in the matchup and it's cost them another goal

01:52:51.700 --> 01:52:54.020
We'll see now what that does to their confidence

01:52:54.540 --> 01:52:56.700
So they now know those mistakes are there

01:52:57.340 --> 01:53:01.860
Now does that play that's been a lawyer and start thinking maybe need to start heading back a bit quicker

01:53:03.140 --> 01:53:05.140
Nothing would be the right decision

01:53:05.140 --> 01:53:15.140
And now he's doing stuff like that.

01:53:15.140 --> 01:53:17.140
How can you not try and follow him?

01:53:17.140 --> 01:53:19.140
This is what it brought him in.

01:53:19.140 --> 01:53:20.140
He's going wrong.

01:53:20.140 --> 01:53:21.140
We all want to draw him.

01:53:21.140 --> 01:53:23.140
And now everybody's stepping up.

01:53:23.140 --> 01:53:26.140
And so far, the first half of the plan,

01:53:26.140 --> 01:53:28.140
the EWC islands to the trophy cabinet,

01:53:28.140 --> 01:53:30.140
just lacking the world championship.

01:53:30.140 --> 01:53:32.140
Already had a major from last season.

01:53:32.140 --> 01:53:36.740
last season, Falkins with TRK on the roster had them, they've already got a VP, they've

01:53:36.740 --> 01:53:42.980
got close to no collection for the art. I think they have a lot of respect for food in this

01:53:42.980 --> 01:53:46.180
matchup, it's clear by the way Falkins are playing this, they are not just trying to

01:53:46.180 --> 01:53:50.420
dust fruit to everyone, they're picking their battles and that makes sense because

01:53:50.420 --> 01:53:54.860
Footer are a very well-respected team in the pro scene, they've not had the

01:53:54.860 --> 01:54:00.060
LAN wins or the series wins on LAN I should say, so you feel a lot with that but

01:54:00.060 --> 01:54:04.060
Everybody respects them, they know that this is a team and you have to take it seriously.

01:54:04.060 --> 01:54:09.060
Game 1 going to Fert is not, it might be due to Falcons underestimating the Falcons though,

01:54:09.060 --> 01:54:11.060
that they're in for a long series here.

01:54:11.060 --> 01:54:14.060
This has been a big adjustment here for Falcons.

01:54:16.060 --> 01:54:21.060
Just, you know, playing the ball up high, a lot more, allowing the challenge to come in good for the out-flight.

01:54:21.060 --> 01:54:27.060
It's also, it doesn't make any ego to a lot of broccoli players, where the victory you want to be is faster than yours.

01:54:27.060 --> 01:54:37.060
Yeah, as we're not at that moment, but we are all mechanical, and Charlie, especially, is lethal right now, and he's got the setup for the loss.

01:54:37.060 --> 01:54:43.060
Well, they're all in the square sheet now, Falcon's starting to heat up here, but have not been able to match them.

01:54:43.060 --> 01:54:53.060
It's not the end of the world, of course, but this is still a serious score that they would take if you gave them a 1-1.

01:54:53.060 --> 01:54:55.060
We're talking about that as if I want it.

01:54:55.060 --> 01:54:57.060
I mean, can't do something here.

01:54:57.060 --> 01:54:58.060
They've got some cheeky kick all over.

01:54:58.060 --> 01:54:59.060
I mean, you've got the second corner.

01:54:59.060 --> 01:55:01.060
They need to get one pretty quick though.

01:55:01.060 --> 01:55:03.060
They're gonna need to take a risk and score.

01:55:03.060 --> 01:55:04.060
Oh, it's not looking good here though.

01:55:04.060 --> 01:55:06.060
Well, it's just going one again.

01:55:06.060 --> 01:55:07.060
Into the backward rematch.

01:55:07.060 --> 01:55:08.060
In fact, with a hundred boosts.

01:55:08.060 --> 01:55:09.060
Handoff from third.

01:55:09.060 --> 01:55:10.060
No good.

01:55:11.060 --> 01:55:13.060
Yeah, these edgerolls I'm not liking actually, in first.

01:55:14.060 --> 01:55:15.060
Wow.

01:55:15.060 --> 01:55:16.060
But this game's a bad touch.

01:55:16.060 --> 01:55:17.060
Okay.

01:55:17.060 --> 01:55:18.060
There's been an awful lot on the get-the-ball,

01:55:18.060 --> 01:55:20.060
but technically edgeroll will get in the reset.

01:55:20.060 --> 01:55:22.060
I would like look to start taking those 15s.

01:55:22.060 --> 01:55:27.060
They're trying to outplay too often when there's two defenders back in the park and time stand there.

01:55:27.060 --> 01:55:30.060
There's a different situation you can't really afford to waste any time.

01:55:30.060 --> 01:55:33.060
There's more of a general observation.

01:55:34.060 --> 01:55:35.060
Nice.

01:55:36.060 --> 01:55:38.060
This could be launch.

01:55:39.060 --> 01:55:41.060
That's a f***ing pop-off somewhere.

01:55:42.060 --> 01:55:43.060
They don't-

01:55:43.060 --> 01:55:46.060
They will have realized, I'm sure.

01:55:46.060 --> 01:55:48.060
They look like they were talking amongst themselves.

01:55:48.060 --> 01:55:56.060
They've already started their effective timeout. They know this game's over.

01:55:56.060 --> 01:55:59.060
They all know that Vulcans are just trying to go for the outplay.

01:55:59.060 --> 01:56:03.060
Vulcans haven't really been relying on resets to get the ball past foot in this game.

01:56:03.060 --> 01:56:10.060
So foot diving in exactly where the ball is on challenges has allowed Vulcans to put the ball over their heads.

01:56:10.060 --> 01:56:12.060
Multiple clenches, so we'll last do that as we saw.

01:56:12.060 --> 01:56:15.980
we saw. And D'Rally do the same thing. And even at the end, they were the double-tet relashes,

01:56:15.980 --> 01:56:20.820
goes high. So, they'll know, and they should know, Falcons are going quite high on all of

01:56:20.820 --> 01:56:24.300
their outplay attempts. So, they've got to do the same thing in defense now, but need

01:56:24.300 --> 01:56:28.300
to go a bit higher on the challenges. But if Falcons predict that adjustment from foot,

01:56:28.300 --> 01:56:31.740
they might start going for the recess, they might start going for the fakes, they

01:56:31.740 --> 01:56:35.780
might like, say, go for aerial fifties. So, really interesting game three coming up.

01:56:35.780 --> 01:56:41.100
Who's going to be smarter out of the two teams currently? You look at some highlights.

01:56:41.100 --> 01:56:43.220
The horrible bit here is what the Flut is.

01:56:43.220 --> 01:56:45.180
What was maybe their best thing

01:56:45.180 --> 01:56:47.220
and their best attribute in Game 1

01:56:47.220 --> 01:56:49.460
was what cost them here in Game 2.

01:56:49.460 --> 01:56:51.180
Because like you said, Falcons adapted to it.

01:56:51.180 --> 01:56:54.580
Riley really did a good job of adapting to it.

01:56:54.580 --> 01:56:56.060
He's given that first goal.

01:56:57.020 --> 01:56:58.860
What I'm curious about here, Joy,

01:56:58.860 --> 01:57:01.980
is given the goals that we did see from Flut in Game 1,

01:57:02.860 --> 01:57:04.940
their ability to chase a game.

01:57:04.940 --> 01:57:06.100
Yeah, they were very good

01:57:06.100 --> 01:57:08.700
when they could bring the pressure towards them.

01:57:08.700 --> 01:57:10.460
If they go down by one,

01:57:10.460 --> 01:57:14.140
I've got a lot of questions about whether or not this team can do something about that.

01:57:14.140 --> 01:57:19.540
I think both teams, like I said, I think they're both stronger on the defensive end, even though

01:57:19.540 --> 01:57:24.180
Tholkens have got some very good offense as well, they're one of the best in the world.

01:57:24.180 --> 01:57:28.340
I think their defense is what's stolen the show in the EWC win.

01:57:28.340 --> 01:57:34.180
They're very good at preserving a lead, even 1-0 leads if you salt any types in their

01:57:34.180 --> 01:57:36.180
series against KC in particular.

01:57:36.180 --> 01:57:38.900
But the foot are the same, if the foot can get in front, I think that brings

01:57:38.900 --> 01:57:43.700
best to have them as well so getting the first goal in this match up it's always important to

01:57:43.700 --> 01:57:50.020
rock blue but it's especially important here. Killers, here's the back pass over to Rewas,

01:57:50.020 --> 01:57:54.500
sends it along, looking for a reset that's what it's going to be threading the needle.

01:57:55.940 --> 01:58:00.020
Alright, pass one, probably just going to try and take his time to the awkward to get my bounce.

01:58:00.820 --> 01:58:05.220
I've been having to see a teammate Justin because I'm sure that it's going to need to just be

01:58:05.220 --> 01:58:08.420
I mean, God is gently over into the corner.

01:58:08.420 --> 01:58:09.640
Thunder Goats wall is my net.

01:58:09.640 --> 01:58:10.800
Please don't go to wall with my net.

01:58:10.800 --> 01:58:11.640
Oh, no!

01:58:11.640 --> 01:58:13.240
Thunder Goats wall is my net.

01:58:13.240 --> 01:58:16.400
Yes, cheese, sure to see this one coming.

01:58:16.400 --> 01:58:19.960
That bounce is just so easy for an attacker,

01:58:19.960 --> 01:58:21.000
like you're asked to go for.

01:58:21.000 --> 01:58:22.880
Cheese, he didn't slid out that much,

01:58:22.880 --> 01:58:27.240
but he slid out just enough to leave the ball open.

01:58:27.240 --> 01:58:29.320
Big dunk, and then go for Falcons.

01:58:29.320 --> 01:58:30.960
You've got to see that coming.

01:58:30.960 --> 01:58:32.360
If you're hitting the ball,

01:58:32.360 --> 01:58:33.720
any kind of strikeable position,

01:58:33.720 --> 01:58:37.720
And all of these are going to be on that, just like they were for their only goalie game plan.

01:58:37.720 --> 01:58:41.720
Yeah, that corner is a problem starting right now, but it's very strange, yes.

01:58:41.720 --> 01:58:44.720
So we have a flying edge here, from last.

01:58:44.720 --> 01:58:47.720
Reset gate, gets the block.

01:58:47.720 --> 01:58:49.720
Crawling on his way in to try and take over.

01:58:49.720 --> 01:58:52.720
Incapacitable, not quite.

01:58:52.720 --> 01:58:54.720
They're on their way back.

01:58:54.720 --> 01:58:55.720
Cheese.

01:58:55.720 --> 01:58:57.720
Oh, I'm going to show the last scuffer of everybody.

01:58:57.720 --> 01:58:59.720
Drawing up the easiest shot.

01:58:59.720 --> 01:59:00.720
Because then, recovery.

01:59:00.720 --> 01:59:02.720
From last, I wasn't trying to finish you off.

01:59:02.720 --> 01:59:10.720
Well it just got to the inside. The response save from Gronik was just not for the underlings.

01:59:10.720 --> 01:59:15.720
Yeah Justin needed to do the same thing. He had to turn off the spot and go straight for the goal.

01:59:15.720 --> 01:59:18.720
He was hoping that that save from Gronik would go a little bit higher.

01:59:18.720 --> 01:59:22.720
So he would have taken the boost to make it back to the goal.

01:59:22.720 --> 01:59:27.720
Do some defending but it's all bulkies now. The momentum is absolutely shifted.

01:59:27.720 --> 01:59:30.720
And this is what good players are worried about.

01:59:30.720 --> 01:59:32.720
It goes in a row for Vulcans.

01:59:34.020 --> 01:59:35.020
Raleigh.

01:59:35.020 --> 01:59:37.520
To the last good catch.

01:59:37.520 --> 01:59:38.320
Doesn't kill us.

01:59:38.320 --> 01:59:39.020
Available.

01:59:39.020 --> 01:59:40.020
Goes to the edge of the map.

01:59:40.020 --> 01:59:41.520
Oh my goodness!

01:59:41.520 --> 01:59:44.720
Our Vulcan's offense has really leveled up

01:59:44.720 --> 01:59:46.520
in the last seven minutes.

01:59:47.520 --> 01:59:50.120
What is no longer available right now, Johnny?

01:59:50.120 --> 01:59:52.020
When was the last time we saw that passing play

01:59:52.020 --> 01:59:53.220
out of defense and fun?

01:59:53.220 --> 01:59:55.020
It is not there anymore.

01:59:55.020 --> 01:59:57.020
Well, yeah, they're panicking a little bit.

01:59:57.020 --> 01:59:59.520
They're not taking their time with their touches.

01:59:59.520 --> 02:00:04.240
just like they started the series and you know so well fighting each other in defense

02:00:04.960 --> 02:00:09.920
any team falcons in falcons are not falling for it look how deep they're sitting because they

02:00:09.920 --> 02:00:16.880
go away whenever foot got the ball that's a long better oh it was happy to see that one

02:00:16.880 --> 02:00:27.120
well okay so that was a rifle this is exactly as we expected the team that goes ahead

02:00:27.120 --> 02:00:33.120
He's able to run on the score, both teams very good, very effective.

02:00:33.120 --> 02:00:37.120
Letting the opponent come to them and then using the space on transition.

02:00:37.120 --> 02:00:39.120
That was a bullet out of the shot from Drowley.

02:00:39.120 --> 02:00:42.120
Thorie now put in big trouble.

02:00:42.120 --> 02:00:45.120
It's looking like it's just going to be another one of those series where they've played well.

02:00:45.120 --> 02:00:47.120
They look like a world-class team.

02:00:47.120 --> 02:00:53.120
They're able to take games, but ultimately they lose to one of the sort of the favourites at Falcons.

02:00:53.120 --> 02:00:55.120
They're just running up a score.

02:00:55.120 --> 02:00:57.120
It's looking like Falcons of old.

02:00:57.120 --> 02:01:00.120
It's the Hope, the Genshin, and FUT Esports.

02:01:00.120 --> 02:01:02.120
They provided a lot of hope in Game 1.

02:01:02.120 --> 02:01:04.120
Now they need a lot of answers.

02:01:04.120 --> 02:01:07.120
This is consistent. This is a problem.

02:01:07.120 --> 02:01:10.120
And with FUT Esports,

02:01:10.120 --> 02:01:13.120
they try to edge-dribble out of there outside of the field.

02:01:13.120 --> 02:01:17.120
And I just, I don't like that as a strategy

02:01:17.120 --> 02:01:19.120
against Falcons of old.

02:01:19.120 --> 02:01:21.120
Oh, my God!

02:01:21.120 --> 02:01:22.320
Oh, oh my goodness!

02:01:22.320 --> 02:01:23.820
Just did that, bro!

02:01:25.080 --> 02:01:27.420
How did he, how did he put that hit from here?

02:01:27.420 --> 02:01:28.620
What the hell?

02:01:28.620 --> 02:01:29.820
I like the ceiling!

02:01:29.820 --> 02:01:31.820
He just gets over it and drops it down.

02:01:31.820 --> 02:01:34.920
I mean, Valkyrie said no idea he's about to try to shoot that.

02:01:35.620 --> 02:01:37.020
I'll take it back entirely!

02:01:37.020 --> 02:01:38.320
And you will all you want, mate!

02:01:38.320 --> 02:01:39.320
What the hell?

02:01:40.420 --> 02:01:41.620
Oh, jeez, I'm shot!

02:01:42.620 --> 02:01:45.120
There's shot type of bits that work with me, and they've got another chance.

02:01:45.120 --> 02:01:46.820
Dronik, he's past one.

02:01:46.820 --> 02:01:48.620
Oh, Charlie's got control of the 100 boost note.

02:01:48.620 --> 02:01:54.620
Bulkers are not going to make this easy. They're not going to get put any easy looks through.

02:01:54.620 --> 02:01:58.620
If you're going to score them a just in this thing, you didn't sit fair enough, that's all right.

02:01:58.620 --> 02:02:04.620
We'll let them have that one, but we'll see if we can get anything off of that momentum that Justin's just given them.

02:02:04.620 --> 02:02:06.620
Tron is just on it the entire way.

02:02:07.620 --> 02:02:10.620
Justin, back pass. He's really like that. Geez.

02:02:10.620 --> 02:02:14.620
Up on the corner. Crop is going to bridge out and challenge you for each other right now.

02:02:14.620 --> 02:02:16.420
Ooh, lovely.

02:02:16.420 --> 02:02:17.980
It's cool off ball.

02:02:17.980 --> 02:02:20.740
That's where our killer's up, so early on the free jump.

02:02:20.740 --> 02:02:22.220
There's Justin, just get up there.

02:02:22.220 --> 02:02:23.660
It's available, it's right there,

02:02:23.660 --> 02:02:25.100
and it's not quick enough.

02:02:25.100 --> 02:02:26.540
That's where the band of players,

02:02:26.540 --> 02:02:28.340
Justin couldn't really see where the players was.

02:02:28.340 --> 02:02:29.980
The players is hiding behind the ball,

02:02:29.980 --> 02:02:32.020
just shadowing in the air.

02:02:33.140 --> 02:02:35.220
And this is the most dire little shadow defense

02:02:35.220 --> 02:02:36.060
I don't want to know.

02:02:36.060 --> 02:02:38.460
Oh yeah, these guys are, they're shadowing in the air

02:02:38.460 --> 02:02:39.660
just as much as they're going now.

02:02:39.660 --> 02:02:42.540
It's crazy to think of,

02:02:42.540 --> 02:02:43.980
back in the start of Justin's career,

02:02:43.980 --> 02:02:46.140
That wasn't really a thing.

02:02:46.140 --> 02:02:47.420
I was wondering what Johnny's saying.

02:02:47.420 --> 02:02:49.820
He's like, not only is your car hidden behind the wall,

02:02:49.820 --> 02:02:51.700
so is your name tag.

02:02:51.700 --> 02:02:52.940
And that just makes it so different.

02:02:52.940 --> 02:02:57.420
So long players play off the name tag.

02:02:57.420 --> 02:02:59.060
And corner.

02:02:59.060 --> 02:03:01.820
Jeez, with an immediate miss, if I don't like the corner,

02:03:01.820 --> 02:03:03.060
I come first.

02:03:03.060 --> 02:03:05.020
That is a problem area.

02:03:05.020 --> 02:03:07.620
One minute remaining.

02:03:07.620 --> 02:03:09.820
But it's something they needed soon.

02:03:09.820 --> 02:03:13.260
He's in a fighting touch just in order to accept.

02:03:13.260 --> 02:03:15.260
doesn't get there in time.

02:03:15.260 --> 02:03:19.260
25 seconds and every play like this.

02:03:19.260 --> 02:03:21.260
Oh wow.

02:03:21.260 --> 02:03:23.260
Oh my goodness, they're still going for it.

02:03:23.260 --> 02:03:25.260
No goal.

02:03:25.260 --> 02:03:27.260
What a play-out loss.

02:03:27.260 --> 02:03:31.260
Yeah, they're great if they're from Falcons with the aerial pitch attacks.

02:03:31.260 --> 02:03:34.260
And it looks like it is going to be more than enough,

02:03:34.260 --> 02:03:38.260
but conceded far too many early.

02:03:38.260 --> 02:03:42.260
Still in this, but it seems like they're hanging up by a threat here.

02:03:42.260 --> 02:03:48.660
Two dominant wins in a row for the 20-in favourites and EWC champions.

02:03:48.660 --> 02:03:50.660
We look forward to this.

02:03:50.660 --> 02:03:52.660
Oh, he's got the set-free.

02:03:52.660 --> 02:03:54.660
That's 10 seconds remaining.

02:03:54.660 --> 02:03:56.660
Let's see if you can add some style to this.

02:03:56.660 --> 02:03:59.660
No boost available here for Ronny.

02:03:59.660 --> 02:04:02.660
Now, two dominant victories.

02:04:02.660 --> 02:04:06.660
The T-Sports need some answers.

02:04:06.660 --> 02:04:07.660
They need them soon.

02:04:07.660 --> 02:04:09.660
Because as good as that goal was, Johnny,

02:04:09.660 --> 02:04:11.660
the big question we always ask in these situations

02:04:11.660 --> 02:04:15.060
is, is that something you can keep replicating?

02:04:15.060 --> 02:04:16.060
Yeah.

02:04:16.060 --> 02:04:17.060
I hope not.

02:04:17.060 --> 02:04:21.500
Otherwise, the skill level is way too high.

02:04:21.500 --> 02:04:23.820
It's just about staying calm and defense for a bit.

02:04:23.820 --> 02:04:27.700
I think if we go all the way back to the first goal in the game, she's rushed his touch

02:04:27.700 --> 02:04:31.100
towards his back corner, the ball bounces off the wall, and then he doesn't get

02:04:31.100 --> 02:04:32.100
back to it in time.

02:04:32.100 --> 02:04:35.100
I think if he just plays that touch to the back corner a bit more carefully, gets

02:04:35.100 --> 02:04:39.500
the ball rolling up the wall, he can easily get behind that 50 at NSA's location.

02:04:39.500 --> 02:04:44.620
Because he's rushed that top's there the balls kicked up and then he doesn't get a full side of it for last

02:04:44.700 --> 02:04:50.160
He's into it, but it's all going back. I think to that touch to those sorts of partners

02:04:50.160 --> 02:04:56.060
Not necessarily the ball play that's just a you know a symptom of the the actual problem here

02:04:56.060 --> 02:05:00.220
It's a good jumping to our they're not controlling the ball in defense like the word before

02:05:01.100 --> 02:05:04.020
Justin the goal in the tournament contender on day one

02:05:04.980 --> 02:05:06.980
All right that one down make sure you remember it

02:05:06.980 --> 02:05:14.500
We do have time-outs here in the best of 5s, very reasonably new, and we get into this

02:05:14.500 --> 02:05:21.580
and I don't get, I'm just going to have to really put something together here, because

02:05:21.580 --> 02:05:25.780
it does look like the levels have started to be established, and one of them is a

02:05:25.780 --> 02:05:28.380
CQ winner, other one is a tournament winner.

02:05:28.380 --> 02:05:35.100
Yeah, it's been a foot story for Paris Major, EWC as well, and now here at the World's

02:05:35.100 --> 02:05:40.540
play in. They were competitive against Vitality, they were competitive against KC, Twisted Minds,

02:05:40.540 --> 02:05:46.460
Shop and Fire Rebellion. They have great runs online in North America. They're clearly that,

02:05:46.460 --> 02:05:51.980
you know, top of the b-tier level. Looks like a quick nap there for...

02:05:52.860 --> 02:05:55.500
They haven't been here for a while, right, so they're not going to be yet left.

02:05:55.500 --> 02:05:57.660
It's actually not. It's actually close to Kevin.

02:05:57.660 --> 02:06:17.660
I mean, this is also the horrible bit of their seeding. And this is what they get in a lot of times they go into is when you are the lowest seed coming in from your region, you're going to get horror matchups. And because of the way tournaments work, you kind of don't get to progress beyond that until you get a victory in one of those horror matchups.

02:06:17.660 --> 02:06:22.900
On that until you get a victory in one of those horror matches, the good news is, this isn't everything.

02:06:22.900 --> 02:06:25.460
You don't lose this end, you're out, and I'll say that they are going to lose this end,

02:06:25.460 --> 02:06:27.460
I'm just trying to put to give the entire tournament.

02:06:27.460 --> 02:06:31.460
It also means that they haven't got to worry about playing Falcons again.

02:06:31.460 --> 02:06:36.160
Yeah, basically what you're seeing from Foot, do they still have a very good shot of getting through regardless of the result here?

02:06:36.160 --> 02:06:38.660
Oh yeah, I think Foot qualified.

02:06:38.660 --> 02:06:41.860
I think they'll have to go through lords the way this is going.

02:06:41.860 --> 02:06:44.460
But I do think they'll qualify to Worlds.

02:06:44.460 --> 02:06:46.660
Let's see, what do they have left in attack?

02:06:46.660 --> 02:06:47.860
Did we get game 5?

02:06:47.860 --> 02:06:48.360
Wow!

02:06:48.360 --> 02:06:51.860
Just then we absolutely agree.

02:06:51.860 --> 02:06:53.660
He scored the only goal last game,

02:06:53.660 --> 02:06:56.360
and he's open to scoring this game as well.

02:06:56.360 --> 02:06:58.560
The Hawkins, they're backing up,

02:06:58.560 --> 02:07:02.060
but they're scared of the legend, the veteran.

02:07:02.060 --> 02:07:07.960
Farmer rookie of the year, almost nine years ago, still at high level.

02:07:07.960 --> 02:07:12.860
Listen, there is one thing that has been a consistent for 9-8.

02:07:12.860 --> 02:07:14.360
Something like that here is destroyed.

02:07:14.360 --> 02:07:15.960
Does get a number 1-8.

02:07:15.960 --> 02:07:21.960
This is sort of a horrible bit right now, you can't go get anything going, you're just going, yeah, yeah, I've got both, I've got the boost, I'm just going to score.

02:07:21.960 --> 02:07:24.960
Yeah, fuck, it's getting on the curve there with the kickoff.

02:07:24.960 --> 02:07:30.960
It's, uh, predicted that we're going to go for the back corner, probably I can see.

02:07:30.960 --> 02:07:35.960
I clattered it with the opposite, uh, contact to the ball.

02:07:35.960 --> 02:07:39.960
That's one thing you can do about adjusting the kickoffs as this went off.

02:07:39.960 --> 02:07:42.960
This game one was a bit of a horror show, now on the kickoffs.

02:07:42.960 --> 02:07:48.160
I mean, it's just something that overgrows the series goes on teams come in with the initial strats

02:07:48.160 --> 02:07:54.200
and then the adaptation begins, that's why they start to see teams switch things up, but this could be another one

02:07:54.200 --> 02:08:01.520
She's back or shot some point, good play by relaxing defense, Justin's respected and though he's sitting deep and he manages to take the ball away from free

02:08:01.520 --> 02:08:06.520
Just gonna pop one on target, but we'll see the results of that goal as Khaleer's got fun

02:08:06.520 --> 02:08:08.520
Well, I know she's a meanie, but for the player,

02:08:08.520 --> 02:08:10.520
Johnny Clark, very similar idea as Chronic.

02:08:10.520 --> 02:08:11.520
Oh, wow.

02:08:11.520 --> 02:08:12.520
Can't do anything!

02:08:12.520 --> 02:08:15.520
Getting Castle harassed and backs.

02:08:15.520 --> 02:08:16.520
Yeah, she's not.

02:08:16.520 --> 02:08:20.520
He was going to be the one disrupting physical in it,

02:08:20.520 --> 02:08:21.520
but actually it's Chronic,

02:08:21.520 --> 02:08:24.520
and each time he's getting boxed out in the play,

02:08:24.520 --> 02:08:27.520
Falk is rolling full steam ahead,

02:08:27.520 --> 02:08:30.520
and for the first time in the series,

02:08:30.520 --> 02:08:32.520
they've managed to come back from the deficit.

02:08:32.520 --> 02:08:34.520
That's every team that's opened the score.

02:08:34.520 --> 02:08:36.520
Up with the score, it gets eventually 1.

02:08:37.260 --> 02:08:39.260
Well, it's a good thing to re-establish control.

02:08:39.260 --> 02:08:39.760
Oh, yeah.

02:08:39.760 --> 02:08:41.260
Well, we're gonna see what he can do again.

02:08:41.260 --> 02:08:42.260
And he's gonna do the whole way.

02:08:42.260 --> 02:08:42.760
He wants...

02:08:42.760 --> 02:08:44.260
Right to go!

02:08:44.260 --> 02:08:46.260
And he probably just got the...

02:08:46.260 --> 02:08:48.260
The hint for that a little bit too late.

02:08:48.260 --> 02:08:50.260
There he has it on his jump.

02:08:50.260 --> 02:08:51.260
Oh, he's out of bounds.

02:08:51.260 --> 02:08:53.260
He's just gonna power long.

02:08:53.260 --> 02:08:54.260
Just in.

02:08:54.260 --> 02:08:56.260
Way down.

02:08:56.260 --> 02:08:58.260
And he's very horrible trying to catch the one

02:08:58.260 --> 02:09:01.260
on the backboard when the ball is already heading down again.

02:09:01.260 --> 02:09:05.180
What's going on, man?

02:09:05.180 --> 02:09:06.680
What's going on?

02:09:06.680 --> 02:09:07.920
How brave are they going to be?

02:09:07.920 --> 02:09:09.520
That's all good for everybody.

02:09:09.520 --> 02:09:12.200
All is slowed up, jeez.

02:09:12.200 --> 02:09:14.920
Grouping himself for the time being, needs to get in the center.

02:09:14.920 --> 02:09:16.800
Roast straight up, Justin.

02:09:16.800 --> 02:09:18.280
Goes back to the ceiling.

02:09:18.280 --> 02:09:19.280
Can he get there in time?

02:09:19.280 --> 02:09:20.280
No, he can't.

02:09:20.280 --> 02:09:21.280
Roast full second.

02:09:21.280 --> 02:09:22.880
Yeah, great challenge for Roast, dude.

02:09:22.880 --> 02:09:25.560
Cut to self, Justin, early when he's been close to the goal.

02:09:25.560 --> 02:09:27.800
He's been scoring.

02:09:27.800 --> 02:09:35.720
still elevate to this game with every match shift and for me he's been the outstanding player for

02:09:35.720 --> 02:09:40.360
foot for a while now. Oh that's going to make it, go on and get there, Jiralli makes it 3-1.

02:09:41.960 --> 02:09:47.720
His clear's faking the high challenge, we spoke about that earlier on. Game two,

02:09:47.720 --> 02:09:53.000
Falkens went for high outweighs again and again but it started to challenge a little bit higher

02:09:53.000 --> 02:09:58.760
air in the air and Volkens have, as we feared for foot, seen that gobbled, started to adjust.

02:09:58.760 --> 02:10:03.400
So they kick off the bottom. Justin, heavy first touch. Wanted to back down for a teammate.

02:10:05.160 --> 02:10:10.440
And the Valkyries have improved their transition game so much from getting on the ward.

02:10:11.800 --> 02:10:15.720
Running good angles, Justin. Every single touch is always a pop. You know what his first

02:10:15.720 --> 02:10:20.280
touch is gonna be. It's the other ones that you need to worry about. Back out,

02:10:20.280 --> 02:10:22.280
Relax plenty of time

02:10:22.280 --> 02:10:24.280
Shots! Oh, we had killers to go for it!

02:10:24.280 --> 02:10:27.280
And you wanted killers to try and pre-jump him!

02:10:27.280 --> 02:10:29.280
Didn't happen

02:10:29.280 --> 02:10:31.280
Still with two gold league cheese

02:10:31.280 --> 02:10:32.280
What's the player?

02:10:32.280 --> 02:10:35.280
Now he just got on the trolley nine with a quite wide

02:10:36.280 --> 02:10:40.280
Good news, TSM took our rate to game five

02:10:40.280 --> 02:10:43.280
Our rate were able to get the job done there

02:10:43.280 --> 02:10:47.280
TSM continuing to have a season full of surprises

02:10:47.280 --> 02:10:50.040
It's always great to see them performing well.

02:10:50.040 --> 02:10:53.560
Remember that the loser of this match will play against CSF next.

02:10:53.560 --> 02:10:58.040
CSF who were able to beat the world champions at UWC.

02:10:58.040 --> 02:11:00.120
A lot of teams have been underestimated.

02:11:00.120 --> 02:11:01.880
That could be first next opponent again.

02:11:01.880 --> 02:11:04.280
A high challenge outplayed.

02:11:04.280 --> 02:11:05.520
Falcons are just too good.

02:11:05.520 --> 02:11:07.400
Yeah.

02:11:07.400 --> 02:11:08.920
That's really impressive.

02:11:08.920 --> 02:11:12.120
And Falcons just how quickly they are spotting things.

02:11:12.120 --> 02:11:15.080
I'm just like, we are going to go after the same thing

02:11:15.080 --> 02:11:17.240
over and over and over again.

02:11:17.240 --> 02:11:18.200
I'm going to keep scoring.

02:11:18.200 --> 02:11:20.600
And now it goes we back here in game four.

02:11:20.600 --> 02:11:22.880
But look, the exact same for Futs last player.

02:11:22.880 --> 02:11:26.120
I'm chasing back and being unable to make it.

02:11:26.120 --> 02:11:27.200
Yeah.

02:11:27.200 --> 02:11:28.840
Everything in Rockleague is a mind game.

02:11:28.840 --> 02:11:31.120
You can see that mostly, of course, with 1v1.

02:11:31.120 --> 02:11:33.920
And Lesnar sent twoes, but even in 3s,

02:11:33.920 --> 02:11:34.960
everything's a mind game.

02:11:34.960 --> 02:11:35.960
Is that going to be 1-5?

02:11:35.960 --> 02:11:36.640
No.

02:11:36.640 --> 02:11:38.400
Kalleers denies it.

02:11:38.400 --> 02:11:41.120
The challenge game from Futs started well.

02:11:41.120 --> 02:11:44.920
Falcons made the necessary switch to start out playing.

02:11:44.920 --> 02:11:51.420
And then they stay one step ahead of Fooks, attempts to counter them and really with that disadvantage

02:11:51.420 --> 02:11:58.720
there's no way you're going to beat Vulcans, you need to be winning at least the mental battle or the strategy battle

02:11:58.720 --> 02:12:03.720
I don't think you're going to beat them when it comes to mechanics, but with it on that, of course people then

02:12:03.720 --> 02:12:09.720
just weren't able to stay at one step ahead of Vulcans, they were completely ran away with it

02:12:09.720 --> 02:12:14.520
So if it's just another ugly body and then there's gonna be another one, great 50 back,

02:12:14.520 --> 02:12:16.520
players tapped it and it's 5-1.

02:12:19.220 --> 02:12:24.220
It's the sort of score line I think that doesn't quite do justice to what's applying.

02:12:24.220 --> 02:12:28.220
They have been going for it, it's only they've sat back and just accepted their fate.

02:12:28.220 --> 02:12:30.220
It's the fact that they aren't setting back.

02:12:30.220 --> 02:12:35.220
Yeah, the reason why this has gone run up is because they're just counterattacking so, so cleanly.

02:12:35.220 --> 02:12:38.220
That's probably just gonna try and find something.

02:12:38.220 --> 02:12:40.220
Everyone's looking a little bit silly.

02:12:40.220 --> 02:12:42.220
That killer's got plenty of time on the ball.

02:12:42.220 --> 02:12:45.220
Maybe he wants to turn high like three set gains.

02:12:45.220 --> 02:12:48.220
Two players required trying to keep that one out.

02:12:48.220 --> 02:12:51.220
As Gras didn't miss that 100.

02:12:51.220 --> 02:12:53.220
He's not gonna mind that too much though.

02:12:53.220 --> 02:12:55.220
Gorgias arrives on his hoods.

02:12:55.220 --> 02:12:57.220
It's brutal. It's absolutely brutal.

02:12:57.220 --> 02:13:00.220
So while they should be finished, they have to get their heads high here.

02:13:00.220 --> 02:13:03.220
Get the jigs out. They don't need to worry too much about this.

02:13:03.220 --> 02:13:11.220
It's not the result they wanted, at least they would have wanted, it's some closer games.

02:13:11.220 --> 02:13:15.220
It's both of what happened pretty ugly from a foot's perspective.

02:13:15.220 --> 02:13:21.220
But now they go to the lords and the run continues, their chance is to qualify.

02:13:21.220 --> 02:13:28.220
Although they've only got one more to go and make it through lords, this is their only life they can throw away.

02:13:28.220 --> 02:13:30.620
So they're going to do a lot of meaner matchup.

02:13:30.620 --> 02:13:32.220
So qualify for the main event.

02:13:32.220 --> 02:13:35.820
R8 Vulcans is a story matchup for the season.

02:13:35.820 --> 02:13:38.020
R8 have had Vulcans number online.

02:13:38.020 --> 02:13:40.820
Vulcans have had R8's number online.

02:13:40.820 --> 02:13:43.820
That's going to be Vulcans next up.

02:13:43.820 --> 02:13:45.020
Nice qualify, remember.

02:13:45.020 --> 02:13:49.020
They've got two opportunities, but will not be eliminated.

02:13:49.020 --> 02:13:51.620
But they've got TSM who, from the sales of it,

02:13:51.620 --> 02:13:53.820
are certainly not able to show that.

02:13:53.820 --> 02:13:54.620
Oh, yeah.

02:13:54.620 --> 02:13:57.020
That is going to be a head of a match to launch.

02:13:57.020 --> 02:13:58.460
They've got to be careful. They really do.

02:13:58.460 --> 02:14:02.780
I mean, NRG lost to TSM. TSM, they've worked.

02:14:02.780 --> 02:14:06.260
They've got to scare Shopify Rebellion in Paris as well.

02:14:06.260 --> 02:14:09.020
So, I've got to lock in for their lower bracket match.

02:14:09.020 --> 02:14:10.620
They've got to just re-game.

02:14:10.620 --> 02:14:12.860
That's fine. You've lost to Falkus.

02:14:12.860 --> 02:14:14.460
It's no big deal.

02:14:14.460 --> 02:14:16.140
That's going to be a problem for another day.

02:14:16.140 --> 02:14:18.300
Today, their job is to make it out of the play-in.

02:14:18.300 --> 02:14:20.460
And they're going to need to do it through Loars.

02:14:20.460 --> 02:14:22.660
Falkus, they're looking scary credit to them.

02:14:22.660 --> 02:14:25.700
They've shown up. They've taken that EWC form.

02:14:25.700 --> 02:14:28.060
and they are continuing to roll with that event.

02:14:28.060 --> 02:14:28.660
Simple justice.

02:14:28.660 --> 02:14:30.340
See you right there, we got that.

02:14:30.340 --> 02:14:32.620
But we know justice is not going to be the end there.

02:14:32.620 --> 02:14:35.620
That's it though, as well, it's booted up on him.

02:14:35.620 --> 02:14:38.340
Congratulations to Falcons.

02:14:38.340 --> 02:14:39.300
This is for Flutey Sports.

02:14:39.300 --> 02:14:41.340
It is all about just regrouping.

02:14:41.340 --> 02:14:44.380
Going next is a brutal day that we've got

02:14:44.380 --> 02:14:47.260
because the entire playing is played in one day.

02:14:47.260 --> 02:14:48.180
So you've got to bounce back.

02:14:48.180 --> 02:14:49.580
We've already seen from this team,

02:14:49.580 --> 02:14:51.580
you know, even during that LCK,

02:14:51.580 --> 02:14:54.060
but they managed to get through for EWC.

02:14:54.060 --> 02:14:56.460
They lost a few times in that tournament.

02:14:56.460 --> 02:14:59.020
The last place, what's Stallions wants to help me with the name,

02:14:59.020 --> 02:15:01.660
because it's on the C and I've got the rest of it.

02:15:01.660 --> 02:15:02.220
Criminals.

02:15:02.220 --> 02:15:05.740
Criminals, that's a crime, but I was hooked off there.

02:15:05.740 --> 02:15:07.660
I think foot make, they're around now.

02:15:07.660 --> 02:15:08.780
They're going to need to beat TSM,

02:15:08.780 --> 02:15:12.140
and they're going to need to beat the loser of Matta Icapha and VP.

02:15:12.140 --> 02:15:13.820
I'm predicting that's going to be Matta Icapha.

02:15:13.820 --> 02:15:17.660
I think they're going to need to go through the European LCQ winners.

02:15:17.660 --> 02:15:19.100
But that's something foot have already done.

02:15:19.100 --> 02:15:21.300
They've already beaten that team in the EWC LCQ.

02:15:21.300 --> 02:15:25.300
I think Fitt's run ahead of it is actually very winnable for them.

02:15:25.300 --> 02:15:29.300
He's got to regain from a tough beating and against the Falcons.

02:15:29.300 --> 02:15:31.300
Still, some pilots are dusted along the way.

02:15:31.300 --> 02:15:34.300
Yeah, we saw the hardline for them. We saw the peak for them in this game.

02:15:34.300 --> 02:15:39.300
But after that, it was all Falcons as expected and predicted.

02:15:39.300 --> 02:15:42.300
They are marching on and they're now over.

02:15:42.300 --> 02:15:44.300
Wibbley is stuck by their victory.

02:15:45.300 --> 02:15:48.300
Well, as predicted, for most people is accurate here.

02:15:48.300 --> 02:15:52.620
here to whom is back with me now again bit of a challenge and you said it

02:15:52.620 --> 02:15:56.500
before but is it good team and they proved it there by being able to take

02:15:56.500 --> 02:16:00.980
some games up there yeah they started really well and we didn't start the way

02:16:00.980 --> 02:16:06.900
we wanted but I'm very proud with the way we bounce back so in in a match like

02:16:06.900 --> 02:16:10.300
that when you said you don't start the way you want who takes control to

02:16:10.300 --> 02:16:14.460
get you where you want is it you do you step in between a game or do one of

02:16:14.460 --> 02:16:21.460
players step up. It's a team work. Me and all the boys, everyone says what he thinks.

02:16:21.460 --> 02:16:27.780
And we lock in. That's not a lot of time for everyone to say what they want to say in between

02:16:27.780 --> 02:16:33.340
a game. How do you make sure the communication is concise and straightforward? Yeah, for

02:16:33.340 --> 02:16:40.380
sure. During the game, I'm in charge of the combat. So if I speak between games,

02:16:40.380 --> 02:16:47.580
the boys listen and I give them a time to say what they think right okay well I

02:16:47.580 --> 02:16:51.240
mean now looking at where you guys ended up by the end of this matchup do you

02:16:51.240 --> 02:16:56.360
feel like this is full stride or do you feel like okay a little bit more to get

02:16:56.360 --> 02:17:04.200
where we want little we have a bit better a little bit more yeah a little

02:17:04.200 --> 02:17:08.520
that's that's fair now I guess before I let you go just thoughts to the to

02:17:08.520 --> 02:17:11.520
the rest of the play-ins teams.

02:17:11.520 --> 02:17:14.120
Are you worried about the next match-ups coming up here?

02:17:14.120 --> 02:17:17.640
Do you think this is, okay, we'll clear two groups?

02:17:17.640 --> 02:17:19.560
Everyone is here, it's competitive.

02:17:19.560 --> 02:17:22.960
He wants to qualify, nobody's really easy.

02:17:22.960 --> 02:17:24.480
Okay, pardon me, you know what, that's a good point.

02:17:24.480 --> 02:17:25.320
No one's really easy.

02:17:25.320 --> 02:17:26.880
Well, I'm gonna get back to the team

02:17:26.880 --> 02:17:28.240
and make sure you're in a good spot here.

02:17:28.240 --> 02:17:30.680
Thank you so much again, congratulations on the win.

02:17:30.680 --> 02:17:32.960
And as you said, there's so many teams here buying

02:17:32.960 --> 02:17:36.040
to be the best, so much more rock at League two go.

02:17:36.040 --> 02:17:37.720
And I gotta say it again, stay tuned

02:17:37.720 --> 02:17:40.320
on the other side of the break, with some great rocket leg.

02:17:40.320 --> 02:17:47.820
Because I can't change it, what you're wasting.

02:17:47.820 --> 02:17:52.820
Now the check case is falling right to the ground.

02:17:52.820 --> 02:18:03.020
OK, the plumber is fixing that burst pipe.

02:18:03.020 --> 02:18:04.120
It should be all set.

02:18:04.120 --> 02:18:06.020
Good thing you're protected 24-7 with your home

02:18:06.020 --> 02:18:07.620
and auto bundle from Progressive.

02:18:07.620 --> 02:18:11.100
Oh, I'm sorry. I'm just trying to figure out the right caption to post about this.

02:18:11.100 --> 02:18:13.780
Maybe something like, I have protection, just need a lifeguard.

02:18:13.780 --> 02:18:15.980
What about that emoji with a shocked face?

02:18:15.980 --> 02:18:17.980
Or maybe flooded with emotion.

02:18:17.980 --> 02:18:21.020
That's too much. Try, uh, Tuesdays are crazy.

02:18:21.020 --> 02:18:24.740
You know, technically, you don't have to post everything that happens online.

02:18:26.740 --> 02:18:31.140
I totally believe you. Life is meaningless with that affirmation, am I right?

02:19:37.620 --> 02:19:39.620
Milk can help you grow!

02:19:39.620 --> 02:19:41.620
Milk can help you grow!

02:19:43.620 --> 02:19:47.620
Milk can't prevent your ride from blasting into space!

02:19:47.620 --> 02:20:08.620
He has a chance to kill it, he goes for the ceiling, he's got the race, he's gonna get

02:20:08.620 --> 02:20:21.820
The 2026 RLCS season is coming to an end.

02:20:21.820 --> 02:20:28.060
But fear not, for we still have three world championships to look forward to.

02:20:28.060 --> 02:20:33.560
2v2 and 1v1 will be amazing, but for now, let's see how our good ol' 3v3 teams made

02:20:33.560 --> 02:20:35.060
it here.

02:20:35.060 --> 02:20:42.060
Shock horror! Last year a European team didn't win Worlds. Here are the 16s trying to change that this year.

02:20:42.060 --> 02:20:44.060
Wait, EU has 16s?

02:20:44.060 --> 02:20:47.060
Mattia Tapper reached Fort Worth in Europe's last chance event.

02:20:47.060 --> 02:20:52.060
But of the regular qualifiers, Manchester City best have calming call from the Christmas card list.

02:20:52.060 --> 02:20:59.060
The extra EU spot Casey earned by winning the kickoff land back in December 25 has now got City to two lands!

02:20:59.060 --> 02:21:00.060
Cheers guys!

02:21:00.060 --> 02:21:06.900
Guys, it's been a crow brought in Seiko after missing out on the Boston Major to his GK team, and it's been a master stroke.

02:21:07.220 --> 02:21:12.980
After top five EU in split two, they finished top six at the Paris Major, winning their group along the way.

02:21:13.460 --> 02:21:16.100
A similar start here would do very nicely indeed.

02:21:16.620 --> 02:21:23.900
Jorias, Oli and CRR have been a top eight-ish land team all year, but in August's eSports World Cup, something clicked.

02:21:23.900 --> 02:21:26.900
Sierra gets a double, Jory is better alone today with a bar.

02:21:26.900 --> 02:21:29.900
That's it, Sierra!

02:21:29.900 --> 02:21:32.900
Third place in Paris at EWC, not the major,

02:21:32.900 --> 02:21:34.900
netted Nip a meaty 100k prize.

02:21:34.900 --> 02:21:37.900
But can they go even better at an RLCS LAN

02:21:37.900 --> 02:21:39.900
and win it all from fourth seed?

02:21:39.900 --> 02:21:42.900
Well, just ask the org they knocked out in the quarters,

02:21:42.900 --> 02:21:44.900
or a player they beat in the third place playoff,

02:21:44.900 --> 02:21:47.900
they'll tell you it's very much possible.

02:21:47.900 --> 02:21:50.900
First off, French teams are still really good.

02:21:50.900 --> 02:21:53.900
They need to tough see each other in the center ball that's coming through.

02:21:53.900 --> 02:21:54.900
You know what I'm saying?

02:21:56.900 --> 02:22:00.900
But at EWC, France's powerhouses all took some serious beatings.

02:22:00.900 --> 02:22:06.900
They see, ironically, losing track of the one guy they played with the most is on the kickoff.

02:22:06.900 --> 02:22:08.900
And instead they just run into their own grave.

02:22:08.900 --> 02:22:10.900
There might be a fourth goal coming here.

02:22:10.900 --> 02:22:12.900
Alexander Goldgoals!

02:22:12.900 --> 02:22:14.900
Welton and EWC are very different things,

02:22:14.900 --> 02:22:20.180
thinks that dirt years ago fellow Frenchy monkey moon taught us gold in one can springboard

02:22:20.180 --> 02:22:25.420
huge success in another. Vitality, calming corp and gentle mates arrived here wounded.

02:22:25.420 --> 02:22:28.540
Will they buck the trend to claim the one everyone wants?

02:22:28.540 --> 02:22:32.780
Europe is still dangerous, but the region's top teams need to reverse some poor form and

02:22:32.780 --> 02:22:33.340
quickly.

02:22:44.900 --> 02:22:51.900
My glass has fallen, always said don't suffer no fools, serpents,

02:23:14.900 --> 02:23:16.900
Daydream

02:23:16.900 --> 02:23:19.900
A bite you call me lovely

02:23:19.900 --> 02:23:22.900
Girl, speak to me

02:23:22.900 --> 02:23:25.900
I'm gonna get the sugar from you

02:23:25.900 --> 02:23:29.900
When they say I'm a machine girl

02:23:29.900 --> 02:23:32.900
I take it as a compliment

02:23:32.900 --> 02:23:36.900
I want you to shut up

02:23:36.900 --> 02:23:39.900
I can be your weapon

02:25:14.900 --> 02:25:16.900
You

02:25:33.460 --> 02:25:37.540
Round one of the upper bracket for the play-in has concluded at RLCS

02:25:38.060 --> 02:25:44.620
2026 World Championship here Falcons and foot went to game four all right and TSM went to game five champions

02:25:44.620 --> 02:25:49.360
field already here as we've kicked off the best week of the rocket league year.

02:25:49.360 --> 02:25:53.760
Ultimately though Falcons do get work done after game number one exciting stuff

02:25:53.760 --> 02:25:57.880
there from Fletch, but 6-1 in game four, a bit more expected here James.

02:25:57.880 --> 02:26:02.320
Yeah you know I think for a moment we were believing but then what the fuck?

02:26:02.320 --> 02:26:07.220
Yeah that's one of the things I think Fletch did exactly what they had to do in game one obviously.

02:26:07.220 --> 02:26:11.020
They had to come out strong, that was their only chance and they just had a home.

02:26:11.020 --> 02:26:13.720
The Falcons just never woke up and that did not happen.

02:26:13.720 --> 02:26:17.320
games two through four. We're just pure domination that the

02:26:17.320 --> 02:26:20.000
greatest team on his name broccoli history of running up the

02:26:20.000 --> 02:26:23.240
score. I mean, you heard from chronic early on cheese. They

02:26:23.240 --> 02:26:25.920
came out with passion. They play a great first game. It had

02:26:25.920 --> 02:26:28.720
focus on the road. So we like, okay, but it's here. They

02:26:28.720 --> 02:26:31.360
could play against them. But it really just happened on any

02:26:31.360 --> 02:26:34.720
team. But it's going again. And we see this quite a bit

02:26:34.720 --> 02:26:37.560
from footwear. You know, they always seem to beat the

02:26:37.560 --> 02:26:39.560
teams below them. But once they get to that next

02:26:39.560 --> 02:26:42.160
caliber of competition, they just cannot find a way to get

02:26:42.160 --> 02:26:43.140
for that hurdle wall.

02:26:43.140 --> 02:26:45.500
Thalcans are a team of that caliber.

02:26:45.500 --> 02:26:48.300
These guys, they just won the eSports World Cup.

02:26:48.300 --> 02:26:51.420
Yes, they missed Paris, but I've been saying this

02:26:51.420 --> 02:26:52.860
since the very beginning.

02:26:52.860 --> 02:26:55.220
If they come back with the World Cup,

02:26:55.220 --> 02:26:57.740
with the World Championship, that's

02:26:57.740 --> 02:26:59.860
probably did what he was brought here to do.

02:26:59.860 --> 02:27:00.260
Oh, absolutely.

02:27:00.260 --> 02:27:02.300
And that's what he did two years ago with BDS,

02:27:02.300 --> 02:27:03.540
and they're showing up here.

02:27:03.540 --> 02:27:06.860
The last three games, 14 goals to two.

02:27:06.860 --> 02:27:07.420
Sure.

02:27:07.420 --> 02:27:08.900
Yeah, Thalcans woke up a little bit late,

02:27:08.900 --> 02:27:10.140
but it does not matter.

02:27:10.140 --> 02:27:13.620
They come out and they play their games two through four.

02:27:13.620 --> 02:27:15.660
As long as they didn't wake up by game four,

02:27:15.660 --> 02:27:18.360
they were fine and they looked so incredibly good.

02:27:18.360 --> 02:27:20.740
There's one to score against you every single time.

02:27:20.740 --> 02:27:21.580
How many shots did they have?

02:27:21.580 --> 02:27:22.740
Did they show it?

02:27:22.740 --> 02:27:23.580
They didn't know it doesn't.

02:27:23.580 --> 02:27:24.820
Now I'm still paying real attention.

02:27:24.820 --> 02:27:25.660
Can we get that graphic?

02:27:25.660 --> 02:27:27.180
I want to know if anybody really truly

02:27:27.180 --> 02:27:28.900
never reaches nine to eight shots

02:27:28.900 --> 02:27:30.260
in all of this these days.

02:27:30.260 --> 02:27:32.140
You see the percent of time spent ahead.

02:27:32.140 --> 02:27:34.140
Falcons 58% of the time.

02:27:34.140 --> 02:27:35.220
That's simply too much over come.

02:27:35.220 --> 02:27:37.420
And really quick Falcons at 33 shots.

02:27:37.420 --> 02:27:39.500
They shot 45% in that series.

02:27:39.500 --> 02:27:42.300
Other shots were making cat in the through.

02:27:42.300 --> 02:27:47.500
They are now into an upper bracket match against their regional rival, RAP Sports.

02:27:47.500 --> 02:27:50.900
This is a grand final we saw many times regionally over the course of the season.

02:27:50.900 --> 02:27:53.900
This time it'll be for a spot in the groups of the World Championship.

02:27:53.900 --> 02:27:55.800
And the loser drops down and has a second life as well.

02:27:55.800 --> 02:27:59.500
So they have earned themselves some fantastic Google Room here.

02:27:59.500 --> 02:28:02.400
All right, we'll take on Falcons a little bit later on today.

02:28:02.400 --> 02:28:04.500
And now begins elimination.

02:28:04.500 --> 02:28:07.300
Elimination is on day one of the World Championship here.

02:28:07.300 --> 02:28:10.700
over there on the alternate stream, but by taking care of five years versus the

02:28:10.700 --> 02:28:15.340
Galgians, we will also believe have TSM versus foot esports. Those will be the

02:28:15.340 --> 02:28:19.180
final two matches of the alternate stream here for the Tuesday broadcast of the

02:28:19.180 --> 02:28:21.940
World Championship. Meanwhile on our broadcast will be covering the rest of

02:28:21.940 --> 02:28:25.360
the matches. So we'll see RAD sports and team Falcons a little bit later on

02:28:25.360 --> 02:28:28.420
and then we will see those final two qualification matches from the lower

02:28:28.420 --> 02:28:32.020
bracket. But to kick things off for right now, let's get two teams that

02:28:32.020 --> 02:28:34.380
have already seen on the stage and who have yet to drop a game,

02:28:34.380 --> 02:28:38.620
Virtus Pro on one side, Mata Itapa on the other side,

02:28:38.620 --> 02:28:39.860
both went 3-0 in round 1.

02:28:39.860 --> 02:28:43.020
Yeah, and I will say, you know, there's no disrespect to

02:28:43.020 --> 02:28:45.500
Five Fears, but SSA continues to struggle at the

02:28:45.500 --> 02:28:47.380
World Championship, picking up games.

02:28:47.380 --> 02:28:51.580
Meanwhile, you know, for Big OJs, they're a real contender.

02:28:51.580 --> 02:28:54.260
You know, we've seen, like all those players play on

02:28:54.260 --> 02:28:56.700
land, but Truffinio on Fury are the kings of South

02:28:56.700 --> 02:28:58.100
America for a long time.

02:28:58.100 --> 02:29:00.260
Obviously no longer on that team, but this was not a

02:29:00.260 --> 02:29:01.980
gimme for Virtus Pro.

02:29:01.980 --> 02:29:06.580
But in that series, Virtus.Pro was monitored specifically.

02:29:06.580 --> 02:29:08.820
Talk, it was the talk show.

02:29:08.820 --> 02:29:11.300
If you tuned into that series, it was the talk show

02:29:11.300 --> 02:29:13.340
from kickoff to series end.

02:29:14.500 --> 02:29:16.780
We'll see both these teams here on the field once again.

02:29:16.780 --> 02:29:18.340
Let's meet, Lothar and Tom.

02:29:21.940 --> 02:29:23.580
The team formed at the beginning.

02:29:23.580 --> 02:29:26.500
We were with Doritos playing in the regionals in Europe.

02:29:26.500 --> 02:29:30.260
And then we decided to change our third.

02:29:30.260 --> 02:29:36.060
And we decided that we should be with Atomic at the third and the harmony as a coach.

02:29:36.060 --> 02:29:39.260
And there we can qualify in the H&M.

02:29:42.760 --> 02:29:50.260
And the truth is that we didn't get too complicated, I see the end, but it wasn't very complicated, right?

02:29:50.260 --> 02:29:54.260
It was a moment that I think we're going to have in our memories.

02:29:54.260 --> 02:29:57.260
Because in the end it was very stressful.

02:29:57.260 --> 02:30:04.260
It was like a book, to be honest, that I will never forget.

02:30:05.260 --> 02:30:08.260
And I think we are where we started from the beginning,

02:30:08.260 --> 02:30:11.260
knowing that when we were little we didn't specify for a long time.

02:30:11.260 --> 02:30:15.260
For me, we should have been here for a long time.

02:30:17.260 --> 02:30:20.260
For me, the Worlds are the biggest thing there is,

02:30:20.260 --> 02:30:23.260
both in the Rocket and in any sport.

02:30:23.260 --> 02:30:31.260
It's a place that anyone wants to reach and want to win, especially, but they only get the best.

02:30:31.260 --> 02:30:36.260
And that's what makes being here so important.

02:30:36.260 --> 02:30:41.260
It doesn't matter to us, they haven't lost as many chances as they did in the World Cup.

02:30:41.260 --> 02:30:44.260
And we're going to show the world.

02:30:53.260 --> 02:30:56.700
I was asking you before how you're feeling, I was always asking about 5-10, you already

02:30:56.700 --> 02:30:58.620
stopped the bets and a little bit nervous.

02:30:58.620 --> 02:31:03.740
I mean, yeah, of course, when you're at this stage, you cannot afford to lose, so you're

02:31:03.740 --> 02:31:07.420
kind of nervous always, that's a good thing though, because that means that you care about

02:31:07.420 --> 02:31:08.420
it.

02:31:08.420 --> 02:31:09.420
But overall, good.

02:31:09.420 --> 02:31:13.860
I think the team felt good last year and we are feeling pretty good.

02:31:13.860 --> 02:31:20.620
I have to ask again, we're joking about all the names in the, with Astromic, Akronik,

02:31:20.620 --> 02:31:22.620
Akronik, Atomic, Harmonic.

02:31:22.620 --> 02:31:24.620
Did you guys get confused at all?

02:31:24.620 --> 02:31:27.620
Yeah, I mean, sometimes it happens.

02:31:27.620 --> 02:31:29.620
It's a funny mistake, right?

02:31:29.620 --> 02:31:32.620
You know, the names are close to each other.

02:31:32.620 --> 02:31:34.620
Who are they calling again?

02:31:34.620 --> 02:31:37.620
Yeah, it sometimes happens, but it would be crazy.

02:31:37.620 --> 02:31:39.620
If all of us made a team...

02:31:39.620 --> 02:31:41.620
I want to see that happen one day.

02:31:41.620 --> 02:31:44.620
The casters will hate you, but...

02:31:44.620 --> 02:31:47.620
Anyway, it's talking about the squad now in the matchup coming up here.

02:31:47.620 --> 02:31:49.620
You're nervous. How are the players feeling?

02:31:49.620 --> 02:31:51.620
Because obviously that matters going into your matchup.

02:31:51.620 --> 02:31:54.620
I feel like the players are feeling confident.

02:31:54.620 --> 02:31:59.620
We had to face Verdez Pro in the LCKQ of EWCR.

02:31:59.620 --> 02:32:04.620
We lost that one, but it's okay. We have to win the important one, which is this one.

02:32:04.620 --> 02:32:10.620
And yeah, I think the series, even though the score was 3-0, it was really close.

02:32:10.620 --> 02:32:12.620
We couldn't score when it mattered.

02:32:12.620 --> 02:32:16.620
But yeah, I'm feeling confident and I'm sure the players are feeling confident as well.

02:32:16.620 --> 02:32:23.620
Did you watch that series back to see what specifically would work against them or did you try to avoid them?

02:32:23.620 --> 02:32:29.620
Yeah, we've watched the series a couple of times now and we also saw how they played in the first series today.

02:32:29.620 --> 02:32:31.620
So it's kind of similar.

02:32:31.620 --> 02:32:38.620
And yeah, I think if we do the thing that we have been practicing to counter them then...

02:32:38.620 --> 02:32:39.620
I'm excited about that.

02:32:39.620 --> 02:32:42.620
Okay, I'm excited to see what that thing might be here. Good luck in your matchup.

02:32:42.620 --> 02:32:45.620
We have to go take a look at your opponents on the other side now.

02:32:45.620 --> 02:32:46.620
Thank you.

02:32:46.620 --> 02:32:50.060
I think our year from the start we started out very strong.

02:32:50.060 --> 02:32:52.420
We just formed as a team, as Redacted.

02:32:52.420 --> 02:32:56.020
We're probably, I think, one of the best teams in North America.

02:32:56.020 --> 02:33:00.420
We unfortunately had a kind of bit of fall down after split two.

02:33:00.420 --> 02:33:04.220
Now going into Worlds, we feel the best we've ever felt after all our practice

02:33:04.220 --> 02:33:07.420
and everything we've done as a team, so we're really excited.

02:33:07.420 --> 02:33:10.820
We know no matter what, eventually this time is going to come

02:33:10.820 --> 02:33:13.220
and we're going to have to be the best we can be

02:33:13.220 --> 02:33:16.940
his worlds is everything at the end of the season.

02:33:16.940 --> 02:33:21.540
My dream has always been to play in front of a crowd and two-piece away in memory.

02:33:21.540 --> 02:33:23.580
Also, I haven't played in front of an LCS crowd yet.

02:33:23.580 --> 02:33:29.320
That's our main first goal, but after we get that we want to obviously make it into as

02:33:29.320 --> 02:33:31.320
far as we can go.

02:33:31.320 --> 02:33:36.180
What it means to me, I think it's definitely by far the most important tournament of

02:33:36.180 --> 02:33:37.180
the year.

02:33:37.180 --> 02:33:40.060
I mean, this is everything, like this is what you want to get to.

02:33:40.060 --> 02:33:45.380
Well, I'm looking to prove that we're still just as good a split one, if not better.

02:33:45.380 --> 02:33:50.220
I definitely think we're the best group that we need to prove it on the stage.

02:33:50.220 --> 02:33:53.020
We were just kind of alluding to the squad in their side, and we're here again with a

02:33:53.020 --> 02:33:55.900
memory from VP.

02:33:55.900 --> 02:33:57.300
We talked earlier today.

02:33:57.300 --> 02:34:00.780
I talked to Wavey after the match instead of a little easy.

02:34:00.780 --> 02:34:02.380
He was happy for that, actually.

02:34:02.380 --> 02:34:04.940
For you as a coach, do you feel like it is better, though, for your players to

02:34:04.940 --> 02:34:07.860
maybe be pushed a little bit coming into future matches?

02:34:07.860 --> 02:34:12.500
Yeah, I mean I think we were pushed a little bit in that series. We just did exactly what we wanted to yeah

02:34:12.500 --> 02:34:16.800
I think they were still a good team. We just played well. So what's the what's the game plan between them to?

02:34:17.180 --> 02:34:19.420
You know I asked him how he maintains energy

02:34:19.420 --> 02:34:23.500
But for you as a coach you try to like actually not say much because you don't want to get in their heads too much

02:34:23.500 --> 02:34:25.700
Like what was your go-to in between?

02:34:25.700 --> 02:34:28.740
Yeah, I mean most of the preparation for games like this happens way earlier

02:34:28.740 --> 02:34:32.440
Sure, I think you know after like the first match a lot of it is just like it's rehash a little bit

02:34:32.440 --> 02:34:36.620
Make sure we're we're warm, but we know what to do. We talked about a long time ago

02:34:36.620 --> 02:34:41.500
Yeah, no, that's that's really good now looking at your opponents across from you deal they three out in their matchup

02:34:41.740 --> 02:34:46.140
But they're in the other plane five years. How do you feel that maybe I?

02:34:46.940 --> 02:34:50.540
Guess sets up what's about to be across from you guys on the field here

02:34:50.540 --> 02:34:53.580
Do you feel like this is going to be something that will cause trouble now?

02:34:53.580 --> 02:34:57.100
Or do you feel like you're gonna cruise like you did before that's for this match specifically? Yeah

02:34:57.140 --> 02:35:01.660
Yeah, I mean, I think they're a good team. I think that again, we're here to win

02:35:01.660 --> 02:35:05.420
It doesn't really matter who we play and I think you're able to do that against any team as long as we

02:35:05.420 --> 02:35:07.220
We do what we talked about.

02:35:07.220 --> 02:35:09.180
I think players are already good.

02:35:09.180 --> 02:35:12.060
And here's the cheeky little try that I know will be a no.

02:35:12.060 --> 02:35:15.100
But what was it that you talked about?

02:35:15.100 --> 02:35:16.860
We talked about hitting the ball, playing rock.

02:35:16.860 --> 02:35:17.360
I love it.

02:35:17.360 --> 02:35:18.420
I'm going to boost that kind of stuff.

02:35:18.420 --> 02:35:19.020
I love it.

02:35:19.020 --> 02:35:19.980
That's my favorite stuff.

02:35:19.980 --> 02:35:20.940
Best game playing out there.

02:35:20.940 --> 02:35:23.060
Hey, memory, thank you so much again for chatting

02:35:23.060 --> 02:35:24.100
and good luck in your matchup.

02:35:24.100 --> 02:35:25.300
Thank you.

02:35:25.300 --> 02:35:26.580
10 years for coaches to realize

02:35:26.580 --> 02:35:27.740
they can just say something there.

02:35:27.740 --> 02:35:29.140
They don't have to say, oh, I can't tell you.

02:35:29.140 --> 02:35:29.900
They can just say, oh, we're

02:35:29.900 --> 02:35:31.220
probably going to hit the ball hard.

02:35:31.220 --> 02:35:32.020
Ash on accuracy.

02:35:32.020 --> 02:35:33.940
That's what every other coach in every other sport does.

02:35:33.940 --> 02:35:34.460
Congratulations.

02:35:34.460 --> 02:35:37.660
He's probably not lying either. They probably were talking about boost and

02:35:41.940 --> 02:35:47.060
Okay on the other side we heard them talking about you know that they've specifically developed a counter

02:35:47.060 --> 02:35:53.180
This is a rematch from the EWC last chance qualifier where money you thought us did get beaten by a vertus pro

02:35:53.180 --> 02:35:56.900
They've studied that match. They studied the match earlier. They said that they've got a counter here

02:35:56.900 --> 02:36:03.220
Give me what counters vertus pro so I was looking back through the numbers and the AJG kind of

02:36:03.220 --> 02:36:08.500
We'll see if it will change because when they played five years AJG was the first man

02:36:08.500 --> 02:36:14.160
He was moving up the most he was spending most his time in the offensive third about 25 percent of the time

02:36:14.580 --> 02:36:21.000
Normally like in his career. He's been a defensive third. Okay, and when they played last time back in the EWCL CQ

02:36:21.660 --> 02:36:26.580
He was the most back. So he was only on the offensive there about 18 percent at a time

02:36:26.580 --> 02:36:30.020
So maybe they're trying AGG upfield more,

02:36:30.020 --> 02:36:32.740
call some chaos, and they're changing up their rotations.

02:36:32.740 --> 02:36:34.020
We'll see if that pans off here.

02:36:34.020 --> 02:36:35.740
Maybe that was only for five years.

02:36:35.740 --> 02:36:36.580
We'll have to see.

02:36:36.580 --> 02:36:37.700
Keep an eye on AGG.

02:36:37.700 --> 02:36:39.220
Is he upfield more often there?

02:36:39.220 --> 02:36:41.300
Let us know who you think is going to win

02:36:41.300 --> 02:36:42.700
in the progressive fan vote.

02:36:42.700 --> 02:36:44.100
Sounds like the B-stream match.

02:36:44.100 --> 02:36:45.380
The alternate stream has already begun,

02:36:45.380 --> 02:36:47.020
so make sure you've got that stream pulled up as well.

02:36:47.020 --> 02:36:48.380
James, what do you got?

02:36:48.380 --> 02:36:51.060
You know, Europe's traditionally been the stronger region,

02:36:51.060 --> 02:36:52.380
especially at the World Championship,

02:36:52.380 --> 02:36:54.580
but VP was so good last game.

02:36:54.580 --> 02:36:59.740
specifically talk if talk can play. Yeah, even half as good as he played last

02:36:59.740 --> 02:37:03.860
series. I think VB takes it. So give me VP. In the history of Rocket League, I've

02:37:03.860 --> 02:37:07.700
always said that there's just more depth in Europe. Europe has always been the

02:37:07.700 --> 02:37:12.180
depth region. I think the EWCLCQ has changed my mind. I feel like North

02:37:12.180 --> 02:37:16.660
America really has the depth now. I feel like VP is one of those teams that

02:37:16.660 --> 02:37:21.060
can definitely win this one. I'm going VP. I like the way Guss is talking so

02:37:21.060 --> 02:37:25.860
far as well. It's like, oh, no, it's trying to say a lot of good things. I kind of want

02:37:25.860 --> 02:37:29.700
to hear any VP as well. Talk to the best player. Three people from VP here. Look, I do think

02:37:29.700 --> 02:37:33.460
it's pretty close. I do think this is an upset pick, but I've talked about it with my stream

02:37:33.460 --> 02:37:36.980
weeks ago when I was looking at these two teams and I felt like I really liked what

02:37:36.980 --> 02:37:41.580
I saw from money that was in that you lcq and we saw a trend over the last two tournaments

02:37:41.580 --> 02:37:46.180
of teams that had that lost to a team at one tournament beating that team. The next

02:37:46.180 --> 02:37:49.260
tournament, I think that they've got a chip on their shoulder specifically against

02:37:49.260 --> 02:37:50.820
Virtus Pro where Virtus Pro might be like,

02:37:50.820 --> 02:37:52.100
oh, we've got these guys we've been before.

02:37:52.100 --> 02:37:53.460
We don't need to study them.

02:37:53.460 --> 02:37:55.380
Give me Mother Ethapa, folks.

02:37:55.380 --> 02:37:56.300
How do we feel about it?

02:37:56.300 --> 02:37:57.140
They don't have a logo,

02:37:57.140 --> 02:37:58.700
so they've got the RLCS logo on one side,

02:37:58.700 --> 02:38:00.180
Virtus Pro on the other.

02:38:00.180 --> 02:38:03.380
For the coin, it's gonna go Mother Ethapa over here for me.

02:38:03.380 --> 02:38:05.020
Let's go, split desk.

02:38:05.020 --> 02:38:06.540
Split desk, man.

02:38:06.540 --> 02:38:07.660
That guy's gotta end up being wrong,

02:38:07.660 --> 02:38:09.020
and that's just not this guy.

02:38:09.020 --> 02:38:10.340
That's not this guy.

02:38:10.340 --> 02:38:12.420
87%, 87%.

02:38:12.420 --> 02:38:13.260
I'm calling this an upset.

02:38:13.260 --> 02:38:14.220
I'm calling it an upset here,

02:38:14.220 --> 02:38:15.540
but can they make it happen?

02:38:15.540 --> 02:38:16.900
Can they prove me wrong?

02:38:16.900 --> 02:38:17.820
Talkin' the boys.

02:38:17.820 --> 02:38:21.660
going at it again here. Second time playing already at the world

02:38:21.660 --> 02:38:24.360
championship. And this one for all the marvels win here straight

02:38:24.360 --> 02:38:27.220
through to the group stage tomorrow. So it's money you

02:38:27.220 --> 02:38:30.060
thought versus bird is pro for spot in the group.

02:38:34.540 --> 02:38:38.300
One match away from qualifying for the world

02:38:38.300 --> 02:38:42.700
championship. Not they thought us versus bird is pro. It was

02:38:42.700 --> 02:38:45.640
the talk show earlier on and a three oh as well for my

02:38:45.640 --> 02:38:47.640
The top was against five beers

02:38:47.840 --> 02:38:53.080
Virtus Pro on one to prove to the rest of the world that they belong with the best of the best and VP

02:38:53.080 --> 02:38:57.120
They've already had a decent run through the EWC

02:38:57.880 --> 02:39:01.120
Play into that last chance qualified. They couldn't get it down there

02:39:01.320 --> 02:39:08.300
And they've got that third place and I think the VP they're gonna feel on our first mattress a lot easier than they would have

02:39:08.600 --> 02:39:13.940
Anticipated so she's seeing if nothing at that by getting up against five beers early on to a quick reset from the top

02:39:13.940 --> 02:39:21.220
drops it down into the box. Pretty lazily having it as far as Dorito. It's gonna be interesting to see

02:39:21.220 --> 02:39:29.620
as ever how such a unique team ends up playing. AJG with NYT really is so interesting to me.

02:39:29.620 --> 02:39:35.460
Yeah, I mean AJG is a world traveler when it comes to the RLCS. Qualified for lands

02:39:35.460 --> 02:39:40.740
in at least three different regions, North America, South America and of course now

02:39:40.740 --> 02:39:43.780
Coming over from Europe with the renal atomic

02:39:45.500 --> 02:39:49.340
Long experience in European rocket league talk

02:39:50.700 --> 02:39:57.740
His world's debut at least at the plane with the mark to get a shot at the group stage, you know two-piece even didn't really have to

02:39:58.380 --> 02:40:00.920
But pick up pick up his control in that last series

02:40:00.920 --> 02:40:06.260
So we haven't really seen the full power of what this VPC was capable of as two pieces come across

02:40:06.260 --> 02:40:09.940
I think available in net there and might be that person would get the clue.

02:40:09.940 --> 02:40:14.260
I mean I believe that in that last series as well, two-piece Ashley didn't get a single goal.

02:40:14.260 --> 02:40:20.260
It actually came down to all 12 of them, were either tall to all wavy,

02:40:20.260 --> 02:40:23.260
and the tall had like 55% shooter percentage.

02:40:23.260 --> 02:40:25.260
He was on fire.

02:40:25.260 --> 02:40:28.260
So far, a little bit quiet as explained, he was early on in that series,

02:40:28.260 --> 02:40:33.260
was a quick look from the return, he goes as far as a terrific ceiling tall has gone.

02:40:33.260 --> 02:40:36.260
What a view this is looking like from that headlamp.

02:40:37.260 --> 02:40:40.260
Good catch there from AJG, but they've lost the ball.

02:40:40.260 --> 02:40:42.260
Dorito back over.

02:40:42.260 --> 02:40:45.260
Talmick was hoping to get a play there.

02:40:45.260 --> 02:40:47.260
Tog just drilling the 50.

02:40:47.260 --> 02:40:50.260
Neither team really getting the better of the other.

02:40:50.260 --> 02:40:54.260
The VP been lurking on that blue net

02:40:54.260 --> 02:40:57.260
and it seemed real quality opportunity yet.

02:40:57.260 --> 02:40:59.260
Tog runs into his own grave.

02:40:59.260 --> 02:41:04.680
Tomic will take control, neutral hop, stabilizing, pop, reset up, and nice job from two-piece.

02:41:04.680 --> 02:41:06.180
Get on top of that.

02:41:06.180 --> 02:41:11.980
First in mid-start, it's so far, a Tomek though, into a 2v1 as Dorito tries to go for the

02:41:11.980 --> 02:41:13.480
buck from the back line.

02:41:13.480 --> 02:41:18.940
Not a crush on it, so far they will be incisive and the victory of whoever ends up coming

02:41:18.940 --> 02:41:19.940
out on top here.

02:41:19.940 --> 02:41:23.500
Tomek, there's it, not as far as he would have wanted us to have thought of dying

02:41:23.500 --> 02:41:27.580
himself in the way, but without anybody joining him, Wavey takes to the skies

02:41:27.580 --> 02:41:32.580
and gives the ball over towards Dorito with a double tap chance for Atomic!

02:41:32.580 --> 02:41:35.580
Crossbar early doors and again!

02:41:36.580 --> 02:41:38.580
Double whammy on the crossbar.

02:41:38.580 --> 02:41:41.580
As we get Atomic, Debra going to let that double tap back.

02:41:41.580 --> 02:41:43.580
He can't shovel the ball back out to AJG.

02:41:44.580 --> 02:41:48.580
As Tom comes across, that was a big opportunity for Mande Toplus.

02:41:49.580 --> 02:41:51.580
VP struggling to get a handle on the ball though.

02:41:51.580 --> 02:41:55.580
Atomic just sends it and waved it with an excellent controlling touch.

02:41:55.580 --> 02:42:01.020
Touch puts it over AJG and gets the follow-up 50 but right to atomic drive for the soft catch

02:42:01.800 --> 02:42:05.380
Third man getting demoed on the furnace pro Dorito comes across

02:42:06.380 --> 02:42:07.900
Diving stop

02:42:07.900 --> 02:42:12.320
AJG the great position just find yourself exactly where the ball is unfortunately for him

02:42:12.320 --> 02:42:14.740
It was about point one seconds too late

02:42:15.180 --> 02:42:21.220
Be clear from him yet. They get the catch in the midfield two-piece for burst of all over towards tall

02:42:21.220 --> 02:42:27.020
The good is, on the other stream, I managed to take game number one versus five beers,

02:42:27.020 --> 02:42:34.220
and on this side it's going to be a long clear, all the way down the other end, as Atomic breaks the deadline.

02:42:34.220 --> 02:42:37.220
Atomic no longer has to think about missing that double tap earlier.

02:42:37.220 --> 02:42:41.220
He gets a pitch back the whole way to the other side.

02:42:41.220 --> 02:42:45.220
Most rock and lead goal ever right there.

02:42:45.220 --> 02:42:49.220
After all and nothing for the first three and a half minutes,

02:42:49.220 --> 02:42:53.960
Of course a pitch on your own back wall just goes straight into the net. Yeah, I'm not a tapas. We'll take it

02:42:53.960 --> 02:43:01.780
That's the one that you need to sometimes intelligent just think I don't challenge that because I've angled awkwardly and it will go back into my own half

02:43:02.620 --> 02:43:07.420
Kind of a horrible situation to try and defend. It's not a great touch though in the midfield by VP

02:43:07.860 --> 02:43:09.340
Just a wavy

02:43:09.340 --> 02:43:15.220
Slashes the crossbar little bent and nobody follows up as full of VP end up retreating if you are inside

02:43:15.220 --> 02:43:17.220
It was a good shot from waving

02:43:17.220 --> 02:43:21.220
We've seen exactly on target on the bar, but the net was well covered.

02:43:21.220 --> 02:43:25.220
Here's a hide one for two, he was up early for it, off the ceiling, trying to dive for it again.

02:43:25.220 --> 02:43:30.220
No boost. Atomic is the clear out. Second man was going somewhere for VP.

02:43:30.220 --> 02:43:34.220
Tark, last line of defense, comes out into space.

02:43:34.220 --> 02:43:38.220
Wavy gets there in time, you can feel the panic settling in.

02:43:38.220 --> 02:43:43.220
Four-vert is throw, AJG slaps it, and it slaps right back to the midfield line.

02:43:43.220 --> 02:43:46.220
Wavy, quick pass, quick shot, denied by Dorita.

02:43:46.220 --> 02:43:50.980
Every nice in-game play there from VP, adding a new angle to their arsenal.

02:43:51.980 --> 02:43:56.220
With my defense area towards Torque, they've got 30 seconds to make something happen.

02:43:56.220 --> 02:44:02.220
Because the man who's been at the centre of all of the offense attempts to air drum up, doesn't get it particularly far.

02:44:02.220 --> 02:44:06.420
Straight to the scene, and two-piece up again, and two-do commit from Mathe Tapa.

02:44:07.420 --> 02:44:12.420
Mclare from there, does lead into the final 10 seconds, ball is in VP's court.

02:44:12.420 --> 02:44:31.420
Dark, having to shove a couple of my DT attackers, now Wavy down the field, weak reset, still through AJG, they got to keep the ball up, off the side wall, talk, bumps AJG, shocked from Wavy's way wide, and it drops to the ground, not DT, taking game number one.

02:44:31.420 --> 02:44:35.620
And I thought that the warmup for VP would have been superior.

02:44:35.620 --> 02:44:39.220
Playing as Bigode, so 5'5", that is a better team ultimately.

02:44:39.220 --> 02:44:44.620
And despite both sides free owing, I think the VP's free owing is a higher quality one.

02:44:44.620 --> 02:44:47.020
And yeah, Matej, that's how I come out.

02:44:47.020 --> 02:44:51.420
In game number one, managed to just sneak one past.

02:44:51.420 --> 02:44:57.220
A low scoring game, different to what VP used to so far in this competition, even though it is early doors.

02:44:57.220 --> 02:45:00.220
Oh, and Tomic almost had it early there too.

02:45:00.220 --> 02:45:02.220
He was like, oh.

02:45:02.220 --> 02:45:04.220
Instead of it being the talk show, talk got shut down.

02:45:04.220 --> 02:45:08.220
He didn't really have any space or any time to do anything with the ball,

02:45:08.220 --> 02:45:12.220
which is kind of the European classic whenever North American players

02:45:12.220 --> 02:45:15.220
end up playing against these European teams.

02:45:15.220 --> 02:45:16.220
This is the depth match, right?

02:45:16.220 --> 02:45:19.220
The proof of depth between both regions.

02:45:19.220 --> 02:45:22.220
Well, Sean, you're not going to have a lot of space against these three.

02:45:22.220 --> 02:45:23.220
Yeah.

02:45:23.220 --> 02:45:25.220
I think that when it comes to VP as well,

02:45:25.220 --> 02:45:30.980
What they've done so well, I've loved seeing from them, is how they're using all of their experience of the game modes.

02:45:30.980 --> 02:45:33.680
Wavy in particular, he's a very good 1v1 player.

02:45:33.680 --> 02:45:37.560
The way that he controls himself on the ball so frequently,

02:45:37.560 --> 02:45:41.940
Mateo Tapai have not let him have that space that normally he would be used to a little bit more.

02:45:41.940 --> 02:45:44.940
And I think being brushed down just means that, yeah, he doesn't have that time.

02:45:44.940 --> 02:45:48.220
He gets these lovely touches, but then there's a man immediately diving on him.

02:45:48.220 --> 02:45:52.220
And now Speed is something that I think these European teams, South American,

02:45:52.220 --> 02:45:55.300
I've been able to re-bring it to the front end.

02:45:55.300 --> 02:45:58.700
How many seasons have you played in Europe before you're an honorary European?

02:45:58.700 --> 02:46:01.620
Oh, give it half.

02:46:01.620 --> 02:46:04.460
I don't know, give it half a season and I'll kill you a European.

02:46:04.460 --> 02:46:05.660
Very fine by me.

02:46:05.660 --> 02:46:06.740
That doesn't take much.

02:46:06.740 --> 02:46:07.740
Doesn't take much.

02:46:08.940 --> 02:46:09.940
Virtus.Pro.

02:46:11.300 --> 02:46:14.580
I'm gonna try to prove what Gibbs was saying on the desk,

02:46:14.580 --> 02:46:15.980
which is North America down.

02:46:15.980 --> 02:46:17.820
Oh, great save to start.

02:46:17.820 --> 02:46:21.140
I don't know how in the world he bounces that off the crossbar now.

02:46:21.140 --> 02:46:26.060
That's an incredible stuff as a wavy finds talk, but no play there

02:46:26.060 --> 02:46:29.500
I think ladies initial touch you wanted something with momentum didn't get it

02:46:30.460 --> 02:46:35.480
But it is marty toffas bring in some early heat to this vertus pro defense

02:46:37.020 --> 02:46:39.860
I mean it was a great sign for material cover

02:46:41.020 --> 02:46:47.180
Opportunities for them already arising in the team pretty not actually having anything going their way particularly

02:46:47.180 --> 02:46:49.900
Here, creature for the mid-field for two-piece,

02:46:49.900 --> 02:46:50.980
going to be shutting down Marito.

02:46:50.980 --> 02:46:52.260
But nobody's to follow up.

02:46:52.260 --> 02:46:55.460
We saw that before when he's got a couple of passes mid-field

02:46:55.460 --> 02:46:57.780
and they just didn't have that third man, I guess,

02:46:57.780 --> 02:47:01.740
believing in their second man to make the pass happen.

02:47:01.740 --> 02:47:02.900
Close down space again.

02:47:02.900 --> 02:47:08.820
Mathias Atomic, stealing to AJG, trying to thread the needle.

02:47:08.820 --> 02:47:11.260
Dorito diving across, talk, just beats him,

02:47:11.260 --> 02:47:15.460
and gives Virtus.Pro a little bit of breathing room.

02:47:15.460 --> 02:47:17.060
A.J.G. daring in the challenge.

02:47:17.060 --> 02:47:18.980
Wavy gets there quickly on the follow-up.

02:47:18.980 --> 02:47:19.820
Atomic there to meet him.

02:47:19.820 --> 02:47:21.100
Wavy thinks underneath.

02:47:21.100 --> 02:47:23.700
T.O.K. picking this one up off the corner.

02:47:23.700 --> 02:47:25.300
He's got no boost left.

02:47:25.300 --> 02:47:26.700
Two-piece has to wait.

02:47:26.700 --> 02:47:28.260
Wavy coming in to support.

02:47:28.260 --> 02:47:29.300
T.O.K. right behind him,

02:47:29.300 --> 02:47:30.900
but they have to concede the midfield

02:47:30.900 --> 02:47:32.100
right back to the corner.

02:47:34.500 --> 02:47:37.180
A.J.G. jumping forever and over there.

02:47:37.180 --> 02:47:38.460
T.O.K. holding the reset.

02:47:38.460 --> 02:47:40.100
Wait, N.A.S. holding it again.

02:47:40.100 --> 02:47:41.940
And the two-piece!

02:47:42.940 --> 02:47:44.460
First power by Woy.

02:47:44.460 --> 02:47:46.780
Shemate and Kappi just didn't know when to bite.

02:47:46.780 --> 02:47:49.380
Torped held them, they're so close to each other

02:47:49.380 --> 02:47:51.300
that as soon as both dive in,

02:47:51.300 --> 02:47:55.180
2P's from the blind spot can barrel it out

02:47:55.180 --> 02:47:59.180
versus Pro, their first goal over after seven minutes

02:47:59.180 --> 02:48:02.380
and they've not been able to score in so far.

02:48:02.380 --> 02:48:05.740
That's a brilliant opportunity for VP.

02:48:05.740 --> 02:48:08.420
And it's been one goal to sign in this series so far.

02:48:08.420 --> 02:48:09.700
One, just above the crossbar,

02:48:09.700 --> 02:48:12.980
dropped down, 2P straight to Wavy on target.

02:48:12.980 --> 02:48:16.580
accepted by the defender atomic could save from atomic

02:48:17.140 --> 02:48:20.340
Dp a little bit of energy after that call and the demo

02:48:20.900 --> 02:48:25.660
for atomic ball rolling away and everyone else was still playing catch-up just couldn't take advantage of the demo

02:48:26.340 --> 02:48:27.460
wavy

02:48:27.460 --> 02:48:31.060
Right back the other way gets fucked off the play AJG get fucked out of the way

02:48:31.380 --> 02:48:36.100
Atomic is there and talk saw it immediately didn't over commit atomic throwing it over the edge

02:48:36.900 --> 02:48:42.180
Go ahead bump attempts from both teams on this series as AJG comes across

02:48:42.980 --> 02:48:47.380
Trying to fight for possession in the midfield, maybe trying to beat Atomic to the play.

02:48:47.380 --> 02:48:51.980
He finds his way back to talk, VP's slow, we're moving their way down the field with two-piece on the wing.

02:48:51.980 --> 02:48:54.980
Having to stretch into the sides, here's what we're going for.

02:48:56.980 --> 02:49:00.980
The late goal in the other series in the alternate streak in 30 seconds left.

02:49:00.980 --> 02:49:04.980
Pagode has only just taken a lead with a lovely double tap from Daphine here.

02:49:04.980 --> 02:49:07.980
Make sure you've got both open and all of your drops.

02:49:07.980 --> 02:49:11.980
Make sure you can deck out your car with all of the best looking items in the game.

02:49:11.980 --> 02:49:14.740
The two minutes here, but they have to tap up.

02:49:14.740 --> 02:49:18.420
In one pass, Dorito to Atomic, that fabled duo.

02:49:18.420 --> 02:49:20.200
H&G, the last man following up,

02:49:20.200 --> 02:49:23.340
and Dorito breaking a rule one in the backcourt.

02:49:23.340 --> 02:49:25.820
Understandable, you're trying to play into

02:49:25.820 --> 02:49:28.380
the group stage of a world championship.

02:49:28.380 --> 02:49:29.660
Maybe they got the extra life,

02:49:29.660 --> 02:49:32.140
maybe you could afford it up for Black, if you won.

02:49:32.140 --> 02:49:33.820
At this time, top.

02:49:33.820 --> 02:49:37.260
Downfield, double tap, no good.

02:49:38.620 --> 02:49:40.220
And no booster, Atomic can't follow that.

02:49:40.220 --> 02:49:42.960
That has to lead in the ball to HHG and Dorito.

02:49:42.960 --> 02:49:46.140
He's too rich for my blood, then it's up shying away.

02:49:47.300 --> 02:49:51.300
90 seconds Dorito is on a murdering spree.

02:49:51.300 --> 02:49:54.060
Dorito, many seconds.

02:49:55.820 --> 02:49:58.000
They look at the clear, he'd be holding on the lead

02:49:58.000 --> 02:50:01.380
despite Dorito going into rage mode.

02:50:01.380 --> 02:50:04.380
Here's HHG, stays on the ball.

02:50:05.860 --> 02:50:08.780
Dorito and Dorito were locking heads there,

02:50:08.780 --> 02:50:10.780
Demo's

02:50:10.820 --> 02:50:14.380
Whips out to the side might be top are trying to get back downfield top of the bubble

02:50:14.380 --> 02:50:16.220
Lady of the Winston just gets the 50

02:50:16.220 --> 02:50:24.380
Bell shot denied by two piece and still surviving just underneath a minute two piece wants some insurance double tap two piece

02:50:26.460 --> 02:50:29.940
Two touches two piece one goal

02:50:31.020 --> 02:50:37.500
And that's gonna be the second the Virtus Pro a lovely play just kisses the crossbar

02:50:38.780 --> 02:50:44.740
And VP under a minute now, getting their second, and it's looking great for them.

02:50:44.740 --> 02:50:49.060
A two piece, picks up the controller in this series and hits an absolute banger.

02:50:49.060 --> 02:50:52.460
Now it goes for another one, but the dunk goes that wide.

02:50:52.460 --> 02:50:57.020
Duck slips this out to the midfield, back the way, he vs Pro.

02:50:57.020 --> 02:51:01.220
Completely different energy from game number one, Tuck.

02:51:01.220 --> 02:51:04.700
He started it with a beautiful assist.

02:51:04.700 --> 02:51:07.780
Now it goes up high and VP just might add a third to their total,

02:51:07.780 --> 02:51:09.780
Nobody was ready for that bump

02:51:10.180 --> 02:51:14.100
Two-piece will help cover the clear and actually maybe create something

02:51:14.860 --> 02:51:18.980
Fucking towards to read up interesting choice. It's wavy. No done for him

02:51:19.860 --> 02:51:24.460
They're talking a very slow shot. I think it's realizing if I just put that much momentum on it

02:51:24.460 --> 02:51:30.460
Hey, they're poor can't bounce that far back out and I'm wasting three seconds of the property gets into positions like this

02:51:31.140 --> 02:51:33.140
Game two is done

02:51:33.140 --> 02:51:35.140
So walls as well

02:51:35.140 --> 02:51:39.140
VP2 nearly the game and never the possible.

02:51:39.140 --> 02:51:43.140
You know, we talked about talk kind of being the centerpiece of this team.

02:51:43.140 --> 02:51:48.140
We're usually seeing him score insane goals when he is peeking, but I think what I love the most

02:51:48.140 --> 02:51:52.140
is watching him enable his team to be great.

02:51:52.140 --> 02:51:57.140
That play that he had to open the scoring for VP, the only goal they had going into the final minute

02:51:57.140 --> 02:52:00.140
you love seeing that from talk. They're gonna be successful.

02:52:00.140 --> 02:52:03.140
That's what you want to see. You want to see them be able to play in different ways.

02:52:03.140 --> 02:52:05.980
It shouldn't have to be the top show every single time.

02:52:05.980 --> 02:52:09.060
He's got to be able to facilitate as much as he can just take over a game.

02:52:09.060 --> 02:52:15.860
I mean, this goal was holding it, double faking it, and opening it up for Two Piece, who came alive in this game.

02:52:16.580 --> 02:52:21.940
If they won Two Piece in the first series against Bogodes, he went completely scoreless.

02:52:21.940 --> 02:52:24.900
Didn't get anything on the board this time around.

02:52:24.900 --> 02:52:27.860
He does manage to have a really fantastic impact.

02:52:27.860 --> 02:52:31.580
And he just shows exactly what they've got going for them.

02:52:31.580 --> 02:52:36.500
They are able to have a multifaceted approach to any given game, any given scenario.

02:52:36.500 --> 02:52:40.700
And Matei Itapa never much hoping that that was the outlier game.

02:52:40.700 --> 02:52:44.540
Because I think Matei Itapa in the first one maybe felt like,

02:52:44.540 --> 02:52:47.220
OK, we've squished by there, let's try and do that again.

02:52:47.220 --> 02:52:49.620
But VP came out with a real vengeance in the second.

02:52:50.620 --> 02:52:52.020
They were able to get things done.

02:52:52.020 --> 02:52:55.500
But I mean, Matei Itapa, despite being unable to score in that game,

02:52:55.500 --> 02:52:58.500
They were creating a lot of havoc in the midfield.

02:52:58.500 --> 02:53:02.500
It's a Rijo spawn camping, getting a double demo in the same player.

02:53:02.500 --> 02:53:04.500
And then getting a couple other demos later,

02:53:04.500 --> 02:53:06.500
and they were getting bumps downfield.

02:53:06.500 --> 02:53:07.500
AJG was going for it.

02:53:07.500 --> 02:53:11.500
And AJG, and Gibbs talked about this on the desk as well,

02:53:11.500 --> 02:53:13.500
jump in more of a frontman role.

02:53:13.500 --> 02:53:19.500
A guy who's usually used to sitting back and finishing off whatever his teammates developed.

02:53:19.500 --> 02:53:24.500
He is sitting downfield a little bit more to try to create space and opportunities for his teams.

02:53:24.500 --> 02:53:29.500
for his teams. Still good ideas for Mati and Tapas.

02:53:29.500 --> 02:53:33.500
I think the issue is, even with all those demos that Rito got, it didn't lead to a goal.

02:53:33.500 --> 02:53:38.500
I think it barely led to a chance, to be honest. This time no, Tomek finds the Rito

02:53:38.500 --> 02:53:43.500
crossbar to commit to it and Tupi's great clear away to leave it a lot of that pressure.

02:53:43.500 --> 02:53:48.500
He's still away, the unsuccessful. They can't carry off with this attack.

02:53:48.500 --> 02:53:53.500
And even the boot teams still are suffering with above number one 2G's goal.

02:53:53.500 --> 02:53:59.500
The fact that you've got a couple of chances you need to commit your next man closer to it.

02:53:59.500 --> 02:54:01.500
And it now will be a real difference maker.

02:54:01.500 --> 02:54:04.500
Whoever can really be brave with their plays coming forward.

02:54:04.500 --> 02:54:09.500
He peers just faster right now too. They're getting cleaner touches.

02:54:09.500 --> 02:54:14.500
These 50s aren't the best for Montee Toppo, but they finally get downfield.

02:54:14.500 --> 02:54:24.500
Get a boost steal, Dorito helps AJG, makes it a 50, to Dorito looking wide, and Atomic opting not to no pocket, no boost.

02:54:24.500 --> 02:54:31.500
That might have been an opportunity for Atomic to just rip it. He decided instead to concede it, that would AJG stuck with no boost.

02:54:31.500 --> 02:54:33.500
What a demo from Atomic making up for it.

02:54:33.500 --> 02:54:37.500
This is a brilliant demo. Definitely a ghosting opportunity there.

02:54:37.500 --> 02:54:43.740
And I'm jumping nips in right at the death, the 100 second run-up pass, so again!

02:54:43.740 --> 02:54:48.220
Maybe just that big, big man that I've wanted to exist in the midfield,

02:54:48.220 --> 02:54:51.260
that they're sitting at the little bit too still.

02:54:51.260 --> 02:54:55.420
They're getting to that position a bit too early, they are not right on cue.

02:54:55.420 --> 02:55:00.460
And it means that the choreography for the NYTs, you'll be able to smash them off the pitch.

02:55:00.460 --> 02:55:06.460
OK, AJG won the demo there, and it was off of a really good pass from the 82.

02:55:07.460 --> 02:55:10.460
You're right, gotta keep their camels on the swivel.

02:55:12.460 --> 02:55:14.460
Try to find ways to create these opportunities with pace,

02:55:14.460 --> 02:55:18.460
because Mati Itapa are hunting, whether it be for the ball or for a car,

02:55:18.460 --> 02:55:22.460
double tap, trying to squeal, and two-piece will get around it.

02:55:22.460 --> 02:55:27.460
AJG challenging, no boost, no one can go.

02:55:27.460 --> 02:55:32.140
Dorito is playing deep beyond the midfield line. Atomic on the far side. Now Tupi is going wide.

02:55:32.140 --> 02:55:36.140
Sets it up in front of the box and it's cleared right back into the lead.

02:55:36.140 --> 02:55:39.620
That's such a silly dive in from D.P.

02:55:39.620 --> 02:55:42.380
He was the last man. Tupi's great pass central.

02:55:42.380 --> 02:55:46.780
Tork dives in but he knows Wavy has just gone to the top left boost.

02:55:46.780 --> 02:55:50.740
He's not going to get back in time. Tork should never have gone there.

02:55:50.740 --> 02:55:55.140
He was third man and it's completely dived in. A massive error.

02:55:55.140 --> 02:55:57.600
Gizmate, tempo the lead.

02:55:57.600 --> 02:56:00.640
Definitely can't let your earlier confidence you've built up

02:56:00.640 --> 02:56:05.140
cause you to take a risk you can't afford to take.

02:56:05.140 --> 02:56:07.440
To their credit, you're only down one.

02:56:07.440 --> 02:56:09.980
You're going to take a risk at any point.

02:56:09.980 --> 02:56:12.240
As will be then, AJG flips it around.

02:56:16.480 --> 02:56:19.320
We'll talk about what gets you far in the world

02:56:19.320 --> 02:56:23.260
championship, especially when we've seen the action of a team

02:56:23.260 --> 02:56:30.020
like Falcons today. Discipline is of the utmost importance and to maintain it throughout

02:56:30.020 --> 02:56:35.980
the course of a series. Any single mistake could cost you an entire series. Way to go.

02:56:35.980 --> 02:56:41.100
Back pass on the respawn and AJG tracks right with the Mataetapa doing what VP did to that

02:56:41.100 --> 02:56:42.900
last game holding on to this corner goal lead.

02:56:42.900 --> 02:56:46.980
And I think a big part of that discipline is knowing that you will get a chance later

02:56:46.980 --> 02:56:51.100
on to score. Trusting that you have the ability to not that, oh my god this

02:56:51.100 --> 02:56:53.560
This is our one chance, we have to take it now.

02:56:53.560 --> 02:56:56.100
Again, never should have gone.

02:56:56.100 --> 02:57:01.040
But they beside all of them commit, and this time it worked.

02:57:01.040 --> 02:57:03.360
Brilliant pass from Tocque.

02:57:03.360 --> 02:57:06.320
Everyone's thinking shot, they were even diving for the 50,

02:57:06.320 --> 02:57:07.820
but there was no way he was going to get there.

02:57:07.820 --> 02:57:09.400
And Atomic knew he was dead.

02:57:09.400 --> 02:57:11.080
He knew either way, if Tocque shoots this,

02:57:11.080 --> 02:57:13.120
I'm gonna have to make an incredible scene.

02:57:13.120 --> 02:57:14.680
If he passes it, I'm dead.

02:57:14.680 --> 02:57:17.000
Well, Tocque passed it, and Atomic died.

02:57:17.880 --> 02:57:18.840
And the Virtus Pro,

02:57:18.840 --> 02:57:20.840
get the time go

02:57:22.840 --> 02:57:25.720
He said you know can't always rely

02:57:29.240 --> 02:57:33.480
I'm being the faster player the faster team got to pick those moments

02:57:34.440 --> 02:57:37.080
Talk again showing the brain on that play

02:57:37.800 --> 02:57:40.680
As he gets shoved around the side wall and

02:57:41.160 --> 02:57:46.440
We are in the final minute as VP looked to try to steal this game away

02:57:46.440 --> 02:57:51.440
I think at the top of our holding this lead, right up until we got to that final

02:57:51.440 --> 02:57:57.160
minimum. In this final minute is mostly the goal already falling in the previous

02:57:57.160 --> 02:58:01.360
game. Great demo from Thor. He used it at an angle to get it and it's a close touch.

02:58:01.360 --> 02:58:06.800
A pitch at 10. You see two-piece Geary up for it. The time of popping it

02:58:06.800 --> 02:58:09.640
towards the side will let me pre-jump from way below. He's a lot of boost

02:58:09.640 --> 02:58:13.920
there and he now has to follow down the other side. It's kind of insane to

02:58:13.920 --> 02:58:15.440
Jump floor honestly, good.

02:58:15.440 --> 02:58:16.520
I respect it.

02:58:16.520 --> 02:58:19.920
It's two-piece, gets the pinch straight down.

02:58:19.920 --> 02:58:22.240
Wavy gets a T650 out in the space,

02:58:22.240 --> 02:58:24.000
AJG getting to the better of it.

02:58:24.000 --> 02:58:27.000
Wavy gets the boost steal, holding the ball.

02:58:27.000 --> 02:58:28.640
AJG right there with him.

02:58:29.760 --> 02:58:33.200
Well, two-piece, missed the ball, got the boost.

02:58:33.200 --> 02:58:34.040
Could have been a free chance.

02:58:34.040 --> 02:58:36.280
It's still like a chance, he flips off the ball.

02:58:36.280 --> 02:58:38.680
Wavy's still there, racing back down field.

02:58:38.680 --> 02:58:41.920
Explosions everywhere, I can barely see.

02:58:41.920 --> 02:58:42.960
And the regulation!

02:58:43.720 --> 02:58:44.960
And somehow we're going 0-2.

02:58:44.960 --> 02:58:50.800
My goodness, he ended that regular time with a brief intermission for a transformer's moving.

02:58:52.120 --> 02:58:59.120
First five seconds in, he's floored towards Wabian, another 50-he's midfield, two-piece, but another double save from AJG.

02:58:59.320 --> 02:59:00.520
He's not there to have a save.

02:59:02.200 --> 02:59:05.000
AJG was floating there, Torino missed the corner boost.

02:59:06.000 --> 02:59:09.640
Tonk just swings one at AJG, gets the midfield.

02:59:10.320 --> 02:59:11.880
Atomic, not a ton in the tank.

02:59:11.920 --> 02:59:16.160
I come straight back, 2P's makes the touch, allowing a boon for Wavy.

02:59:16.160 --> 02:59:19.040
Talks, stealing the corner boons, but counter coming from Dorito.

02:59:19.040 --> 02:59:21.200
Another clear out.

02:59:21.200 --> 02:59:24.560
4VP and they'll get out of dodge quickly.

02:59:24.560 --> 02:59:27.200
As Dorito up in the air, free touch off the ceiling.

02:59:27.200 --> 02:59:29.680
Dorito trying to stretch across and it's just no play.

02:59:29.680 --> 02:59:31.680
Atomic makes the 50, back to AJG.

02:59:31.680 --> 02:59:33.200
They run into each other.

02:59:33.200 --> 02:59:36.880
Talks gets a little bit of time to think about this

02:59:36.880 --> 02:59:39.760
and gets the 50 back as slowing it down.

02:59:39.760 --> 02:59:43.920
two-piece. Get off the ceiling, but Maté top all racing four.

02:59:43.920 --> 02:59:46.720
The charge is just not good enough. Tom didn't even have to leave the ground.

02:59:46.720 --> 02:59:49.360
Close chance there. Nice little redirect opportunity.

02:59:50.320 --> 02:59:55.120
Torg wants to get the same musty that Atomic did earlier on in this series.

02:59:55.120 --> 02:59:59.920
A miss from Atomic, well from Dorito. Makes his defense all good as

02:59:59.920 --> 03:00:03.440
Maté has to have a boost. He's going to be gradually depleting and he's

03:00:03.440 --> 03:00:10.360
Discussing soon as VP find themselves near enough of 300 boosts a big offensive push will be

03:00:10.760 --> 03:00:12.760
RJ talk to two days

03:00:13.520 --> 03:00:16.560
It's still waiting to save away

03:00:17.440 --> 03:00:19.440
I'm surprised it got through

03:00:19.640 --> 03:00:21.640
Turned into a chance for VP

03:00:21.720 --> 03:00:25.240
It's a demo but talk still has to fall with a deathly fight

03:00:25.240 --> 03:00:27.240
Oh ho ho ho ho ho

03:00:28.720 --> 03:00:32.040
That was disgusting Lord Proph talk

03:01:02.040 --> 03:01:05.320
They pick up one. That's crazy the alternate stream

03:01:05.320 --> 03:01:10.680
You need to be keeping an eye on what is going on over there over half the game played to the gorgeous struggling

03:01:10.880 --> 03:01:13.160
Yeah, and this it was a game number four

03:01:14.040 --> 03:01:17.840
Go to five if I can't keep it up, but here on the main stream

03:01:18.320 --> 03:01:22.760
Virtus Pro what a lovely couple of guys they have that passing play is

03:01:22.760 --> 03:01:47.760
It's like a prime app Jack Flick back in his proper 1v1 days where he crisps, yeah he just goes and it's in, it's in your neck. I'm so good at Flicks that it will just end up in your neck.

03:01:47.760 --> 03:01:51.920
a bad game for Mati Tapas. You just, you know, tip your cap to that, you know, fine talk.

03:01:51.920 --> 03:01:56.240
You could have that one. They're still in this series. They call time out. Mati Tapas,

03:01:57.280 --> 03:02:01.600
they say, well, they got to figure things out. But there's just GG go next on that flick.

03:02:01.600 --> 03:02:06.000
Because I thought they played well in that game. They had the lead. They held it for a little

03:02:06.000 --> 03:02:12.960
bit. And like you said, beautiful passing play from talk. And then talk again on the flick.

03:02:12.960 --> 03:02:18.280
the man will not will not let this go easy he wants that world championship debut

03:02:18.280 --> 03:02:23.840
proper not just the playing if you get a little bit further on obviously it's

03:02:23.840 --> 03:02:27.840
through these stages there is a crowd awaiting you later in the tournament

03:02:27.840 --> 03:02:33.080
you heard that's what VP were really after they want to see the crowd but

03:02:33.080 --> 03:02:37.440
want to see the crowd all of our teams do and North America there are two of

03:02:37.440 --> 03:02:42.240
your teams sitting in the play-ins and there's a lot of North American

03:02:42.240 --> 03:02:48.600
I know we're filling up Dickies Arena. This is our third time here. Every time is a dream when we get to see all of you

03:02:48.600 --> 03:02:51.000
What a chat of course if you are going to be coming to Dickies Arena

03:02:51.480 --> 03:02:58.240
Two if you aren't be wish you were and three if you're watching in an AMC theater near you and four if you just want to be included

03:02:58.320 --> 03:03:01.520
Yeah, that's nice. That's a lot of numbers. Yeah. Good luck. I

03:03:04.000 --> 03:03:08.760
You're capable I believe in you like you my Tapa also capable

03:03:08.760 --> 03:03:15.100
I'm trying to force this into a game five, but Verna's pro, they wanted to prove that

03:03:15.100 --> 03:03:18.860
the kickoff plan was not a fluke.

03:03:18.860 --> 03:03:24.180
Here comes Wavy down the field, an extra touch on top of it.

03:03:24.180 --> 03:03:27.820
I thought they were moving so well together down the pitch.

03:03:27.820 --> 03:03:32.260
A lot of the short work, a lot of the demo work, a lot of the hard work.

03:03:32.260 --> 03:03:38.100
Todd gets the goal here, but all set up by two-piece.

03:03:38.100 --> 03:03:42.260
playing from two pieces well I think Matt has happened thinking he's playing the ball here he's

03:03:42.260 --> 03:03:48.020
going to try and tap it on further and in the last second uh-oh he's going straight for the defender

03:03:49.060 --> 03:03:56.100
dog fighting in the skies removes one as VP game oh my goodness from the ceiling another chance

03:03:57.300 --> 03:04:02.500
it's like wrestling immediately in game four only playing from the ropes

03:04:03.940 --> 03:04:07.140
maybe we'll get the corner I think he was expecting a demo there because he took a little

03:04:07.140 --> 03:04:12.180
bit of time to go for that ball. I wouldn't be feeling scared of the demos. There's another one.

03:04:13.220 --> 03:04:19.620
Dorito, nice soft catch. Somehow that 50 goes straight in between the rotation. AJG forced to

03:04:19.620 --> 03:04:26.420
the side wall. Wavy again. Actually loses the touch.

03:04:29.620 --> 03:04:34.740
Talk. It's all of this on the 50. Wavy trying to take advantage of it by hitting a bump.

03:04:34.740 --> 03:04:39.740
What is pro attack? Slowly dying out here. It gets cleared out back to their half.

03:04:39.740 --> 03:04:44.740
There's been quite a boost discrepancy from the eye test at the moment of

03:04:44.740 --> 03:04:50.740
to VP and Mateo Atapa. VP have been winning that in the previous game especially.

03:04:50.740 --> 03:04:53.740
It really fell on Mateo Atapa. It's like how close it was.

03:04:53.740 --> 03:04:59.740
Just a little bit later to boost. They were starved down to 30 frequently.

03:04:59.740 --> 03:05:03.740
Keep an eye on what VP have got in the tank across this game because that's what allows them

03:05:03.740 --> 03:05:07.140
allows that high-flight fast-paced accurate gameplay.

03:05:10.460 --> 03:05:13.960
HNG, back over to Dorito.

03:05:13.960 --> 03:05:17.260
Dorito again, neutral hop down.

03:05:17.260 --> 03:05:21.020
Just can't get a 50 that actually puts VP under threat.

03:05:21.020 --> 03:05:22.540
Tauk slows it down again.

03:05:22.540 --> 03:05:25.180
Atomic, they want to recover.

03:05:25.180 --> 03:05:27.180
VP actually gave him the space to get through.

03:05:27.180 --> 03:05:28.260
It turns into a chance.

03:05:28.260 --> 03:05:31.740
Now, Wavy shuts them down.

03:05:31.740 --> 03:05:35.020
Great 50 from Torch, sweet zip line, he's in the roof of this car.

03:05:35.660 --> 03:05:37.820
Gonna boost Steen in the back as well.

03:05:38.820 --> 03:05:40.260
It falls now towards the toilet.

03:05:40.260 --> 03:05:43.140
Gosh, I do think he picked it up instead of the VP player.

03:05:43.580 --> 03:05:46.220
Pass the centre, Dreat it, doesn't this place gonna carry on?

03:05:46.220 --> 03:05:48.700
Put the pressure on AJG this time.

03:05:48.700 --> 03:05:52.580
It's his game and it's turn to go for demos on VP's back line.

03:05:52.580 --> 03:05:57.220
But can it pay off unlike how it hasn't in this series so far?

03:05:58.740 --> 03:06:00.060
Catch from two-piece.

03:06:00.060 --> 03:06:08.060
Trying to set up a 50 top, didn't wind the feed back towards two bees, but he looks for the extra touch.

03:06:08.060 --> 03:06:13.060
Wavey will cut them off, bumping AJG, kind of into position.

03:06:13.060 --> 03:06:20.060
Zero to demo talk, Kit, Mathe, top of down, field, looking for some kind of play.

03:06:20.060 --> 03:06:22.060
Wavey's been avoiding every single bump attempt.

03:06:22.060 --> 03:06:28.780
to Washington especially off ball they are going for a lot and he's getting the

03:06:28.780 --> 03:06:33.820
better of the two times than not a lot of contested balls and that one even two

03:06:33.820 --> 03:06:38.140
feet gets on top of it it would have been a chance to do that stuff

03:06:38.140 --> 03:06:42.900
yeah guess the way a little bit I would have joined it personally it wouldn't

03:06:42.900 --> 03:06:46.620
be an RCF world this for any land and we didn't complain about not

03:06:46.620 --> 03:06:49.820
That point in the ball. Flicks off far too far.

03:06:49.820 --> 03:06:51.820
Nice chance for an NJG, however.

03:06:53.320 --> 03:06:58.320
It's VP. They are holding on, but it does seem like there is a goal in the making.

03:06:59.320 --> 03:07:02.320
On the other side, pass out again, two-piece to recede.

03:07:02.320 --> 03:07:05.820
And they'll happily burn a couple of seconds, especially when they're on the attack.

03:07:05.820 --> 03:07:08.320
That's an open net. Open enough!

03:07:09.320 --> 03:07:11.320
Underneath was definitely open.

03:07:11.320 --> 03:07:20.320
The ball not placed well. Also weak. That could have been insurance for VP. Chance for Montaigne Topper to get on the board.

03:07:20.320 --> 03:07:23.320
Trying to force the issue here and force the game to fly.

03:07:23.320 --> 03:07:31.320
VP sitting on the backboard. AJG trying to squeeze, but they're not getting the bounces they want.

03:07:31.320 --> 03:07:35.320
They're taking too long to get back to the follow-ups. AJG another catch.

03:07:35.320 --> 03:07:40.200
20 boost and just not the metallic tries to squeeze he gets fucked down to play

03:07:40.200 --> 03:07:45.480
HHG boosting towards it. He doesn't get anything. Atomic he's next up 50 just

03:07:45.480 --> 03:07:49.720
keeps it locked into this corner VP wasting time happy to play in the

03:07:49.720 --> 03:07:53.840
orange corner for as long as Mati double walk two and they get another clear.

03:07:53.840 --> 03:08:00.400
It's a lot harder to score from those corner positions all three though do go for this ball final 30 a reset from Torch

03:08:00.400 --> 03:08:05.040
it's against Sinai by Dorito but a boost stolen and a matter of news makes this

03:08:05.040 --> 03:08:08.040
He'll be even harder for Matanetapa.

03:08:08.040 --> 03:08:10.040
That'll be clear.

03:08:10.040 --> 03:08:12.040
They're not playing on the blue half as often,

03:08:12.040 --> 03:08:14.040
but they're also not commanding anything in the orange half.

03:08:14.040 --> 03:08:16.040
And then the only thing is they're doing, that's a huge win.

03:08:16.040 --> 03:08:18.040
Tuck, 14 moves.

03:08:18.040 --> 03:08:19.040
He's got a hit on Tuck.

03:08:19.040 --> 03:08:20.040
Tuck just pops this up.

03:08:20.040 --> 03:08:22.040
Tuck is in trouble right now.

03:08:22.040 --> 03:08:25.040
No chance. Now, counter maybe, but Wavy stops it.

03:08:25.040 --> 03:08:27.040
Get pulled. Tuck in the air.

03:08:27.040 --> 03:08:28.040
Let's hit Tuck.

03:08:28.040 --> 03:08:31.040
And Atomic can't get anything going.

03:08:31.040 --> 03:08:34.040
Furnace Probe holding lead.

03:08:34.040 --> 03:08:40.360
Tork trying to drop it down, and Verna's Pro is qualified for the World Championship proper.

03:08:42.600 --> 03:08:49.480
Tork's first time of asking, making it into the top 16. It's going to be the best result

03:08:49.480 --> 03:08:56.200
the two pieces have had at a world championship as well and wavy alongside them. They are going

03:08:56.200 --> 03:09:00.760
to ideally for them and a lot of their North American fans are going to make a dent when

03:09:00.760 --> 03:09:02.860
that we see who they're in a group with.

03:09:02.860 --> 03:09:06.140
I'm really excited for North America in this tournament.

03:09:06.140 --> 03:09:08.100
Obviously we'll see if NRG can bounce back

03:09:08.100 --> 03:09:09.900
that we want a bit of a down time.

03:09:09.900 --> 03:09:12.660
The rebellion are always gonna be in it for entertainment.

03:09:12.660 --> 03:09:15.540
It's entertainment no matter what the result is for them.

03:09:15.540 --> 03:09:17.620
Space station, their recent results

03:09:17.620 --> 03:09:19.820
and how they're looking exciting to see

03:09:19.820 --> 03:09:20.660
how they will do now.

03:09:20.660 --> 03:09:23.900
Vertus Pro joining them as well.

03:09:23.900 --> 03:09:27.020
It's very exciting time to be a North American fan.

03:09:27.020 --> 03:09:28.700
And who knows, one of these teams

03:09:28.700 --> 03:09:29.660
might be able to go deep.

03:09:29.660 --> 03:09:34.140
Virtus.pro certainly with talk, but it wasn't just talking this time, was it?

03:09:34.140 --> 03:09:36.900
Wavy and two-piece getting a lot done.

03:09:36.900 --> 03:09:40.020
And Wavy as a, just as a facilitator in general.

03:09:40.020 --> 03:09:45.580
You don't get the points for facilitating for your team a lot of the time unless it's an assist.

03:09:45.580 --> 03:09:52.460
But man, being able to avoid bumps, being able to stop momentum, being able to create opportunity is great.

03:09:52.460 --> 03:09:55.020
Let's go down with the interview with Virtus.pro.

03:09:55.020 --> 03:10:01.260
Virtus.pro qualifies through for the world championships proper and I've got two

03:10:01.260 --> 03:10:04.860
pieces now with me. I was saying that's got to feel good and he says it feels

03:10:04.860 --> 03:10:11.820
great. Of course, yeah. I've never made it. Well actually, the group save was in Boston, I guess.

03:10:11.820 --> 03:10:15.980
But now it's like, yeah, I can add a group so I feel much better. Yeah, like it was like a

03:10:15.980 --> 03:10:21.500
weight just came off you? Yeah, 100%. Yeah, because like I guess we heard earlier from

03:10:21.500 --> 03:10:26.740
From talking like a pre-recorded interview, but you saying what like his goal was like to get to the audience days

03:10:26.820 --> 03:10:29.780
For you yourself though, did you have like different personal goals?

03:10:29.780 --> 03:10:32.020
Like what did you want out of this besides obviously resume?

03:10:32.300 --> 03:10:37.300
Yeah, no first first goal is definitely crowd and then second wedding. That's right. Yeah

03:10:37.740 --> 03:10:41.780
Yeah, so so I mean like there's still I guess a little bit of weight on you if you're saying

03:10:41.780 --> 03:10:44.420
Okay, we're still got groups get through we're not at crowds yet

03:10:45.060 --> 03:10:48.860
But I imagine you're still gonna try to rebel in the fact you've made groups now

03:10:48.860 --> 03:10:54.840
Yeah, 100% honestly I was more nervous for plans and I probably will be for groups yeah because plans is like

03:10:55.220 --> 03:11:00.740
We feel like we're better than the teams that were in our path. Yeah. Yeah pressure almost. Well, you're right

03:11:04.820 --> 03:11:09.980
That's good, okay, that's good because I I always wondered and I was talking to a couple of them in the lobby

03:11:09.980 --> 03:11:11.980
They'll tell a lot of the game. I was saying I

03:11:12.180 --> 03:11:17.600
You know, do you feel more nervous coming into the planes because you're like you're not quite there yet?

03:11:17.600 --> 03:11:21.240
Some of the guys were saying they treat it like it's still worlds, but what was your mind saying?

03:11:21.240 --> 03:11:23.900
Because it sounds like you weren't quite treating it like you were there yet.

03:11:24.400 --> 03:11:31.000
Yeah, I mean in a way like we said before we're playing like we can't underestimate any of the teams for sure because I mean they

03:11:31.000 --> 03:11:33.320
They're world sure. Yeah. Yeah, but it's like

03:11:33.920 --> 03:11:37.960
We feel like we should have already been in groups. So the fact that we're in play-ins. It was like

03:11:38.600 --> 03:11:43.520
If we lose we're not playing well that good that kind of thing. Yeah, so it's like, you know

03:11:43.520 --> 03:11:45.360
Well, you didn't lose yet.

03:11:45.360 --> 03:11:47.360
You guys are on a good run right now.

03:11:47.360 --> 03:11:49.640
I want you to talk to me about your teammates right now,

03:11:49.640 --> 03:11:51.440
because all three of you are looking so good.

03:11:51.440 --> 03:11:52.940
You're synergizing so well.

03:11:52.940 --> 03:11:55.000
Tocque is an absolute monster up there.

03:11:55.000 --> 03:11:58.280
And I flick that he got earlier.

03:11:58.280 --> 03:12:01.000
What's comms like whenever someone scores,

03:12:01.000 --> 03:12:02.200
you guys make a good play?

03:12:02.200 --> 03:12:03.200
Are you trying to keep it chill,

03:12:03.200 --> 03:12:05.480
or do you guys just get really into supporting each other?

03:12:05.480 --> 03:12:07.320
What's the comms like?

03:12:07.320 --> 03:12:09.640
I think I'm the one that keeps it chill.

03:12:09.640 --> 03:12:12.800
I think they're more like wavy-zive one.

03:12:12.800 --> 03:12:14.740
talks kind of too, but he'll,

03:12:14.740 --> 03:12:16.300
I'm usually the one that keeps it like,

03:12:16.300 --> 03:12:17.140
you check.

03:12:17.140 --> 03:12:17.980
You gotta keep him centered, right?

03:12:17.980 --> 03:12:18.820
Yeah.

03:12:18.820 --> 03:12:20.820
And well, I'm gonna let you go celebrate with the team, man,

03:12:20.820 --> 03:12:22.420
cause that's great to get that weight off there.

03:12:22.420 --> 03:12:24.140
Congratulations on that win.

03:12:24.140 --> 03:12:26.660
And hopefully those wins keep on going forward here,

03:12:26.660 --> 03:12:28.340
as we do have more on it.

03:12:28.340 --> 03:12:30.900
Day number one, the play-ins continue on here

03:12:30.900 --> 03:12:32.500
at the RLCS World Championship.

03:12:32.500 --> 03:12:33.700
So please stay tuned.

03:12:33.700 --> 03:13:01.860
I want to try and experiment all right to help you unbecome your parents. I want you to try a game called Rocket League

03:13:01.860 --> 03:13:04.800
Ooh, is it a puzzle like my crossword?

03:13:04.800 --> 03:13:06.540
No, picture soccer.

03:13:06.540 --> 03:13:07.340
Okay.

03:13:07.340 --> 03:13:08.840
With a car.

03:13:08.840 --> 03:13:11.140
What, do I hang my feet outside the window?

03:13:11.140 --> 03:13:12.440
No, not your car.

03:13:12.440 --> 03:13:13.500
But you said, think of it.

03:13:13.500 --> 03:13:14.500
It's a video game.

03:13:14.500 --> 03:13:16.140
Oh, okay, I get it.

03:13:16.140 --> 03:13:17.240
Where's the cartridge?

03:13:17.240 --> 03:13:18.580
No, it's an online thing.

03:13:18.580 --> 03:13:19.580
Is there a joystick?

03:13:19.580 --> 03:13:21.080
Not like the ones you're thinking of.

03:13:21.080 --> 03:13:22.420
But I need to get some quarters, right?

03:13:22.420 --> 03:13:23.080
I know.

03:13:23.080 --> 03:13:24.380
I gotta blow in the cartridge.

03:13:24.380 --> 03:13:27.360
Again, like no cartridge, but you'll need a username.

03:13:27.360 --> 03:13:28.180
Username, huh?

03:13:28.180 --> 03:13:31.520
How about Keith underscore 9-9-1-4?

03:13:31.520 --> 03:13:32.840
The bathroom coat?

03:13:32.840 --> 03:13:36.320
That's the only number I can kind of remember easily, so.

03:13:36.320 --> 03:13:40.240
At Sargento, we believe your breaks deserve balanced breaks.

03:13:40.240 --> 03:13:42.480
Taste over 70 years of family commitment

03:13:42.480 --> 03:13:45.240
to high quality cheese and other delicious ingredients

03:13:45.240 --> 03:13:46.240
in every bite.

03:13:46.240 --> 03:13:47.520
You have our word on it.

03:13:47.520 --> 03:13:48.640
You have our name on it.

03:13:48.640 --> 03:13:50.920
Sargento, a promise you can taste.

03:13:55.920 --> 03:13:57.280
Go home, man.

03:13:57.280 --> 03:13:58.080
Cause you're moving.

03:13:58.080 --> 03:13:59.600
I'm on it, but you should get to move.

03:13:59.600 --> 03:14:01.480
So I'm making my go home, man.

03:14:01.480 --> 03:14:18.920
Every day, Michelin innovates to move the world forward on the road and far beyond.

03:14:18.920 --> 03:14:21.920
Michelin, motion for life.

03:14:21.920 --> 03:14:27.800
If the sun seems bigger when you're in Fort Worth, so does the opportunity.

03:14:27.800 --> 03:14:32.800
It's got lots of things you've never dreamed it had.

03:14:32.800 --> 03:14:39.280
The old and the new together in an unexpected blend.

03:14:39.280 --> 03:14:47.480
You can do just about anything you set your mind to.

03:14:47.480 --> 03:14:49.400
Fort Worth, Texas.

03:14:49.400 --> 03:14:51.400
The Unexpected City.

03:14:51.400 --> 03:15:08.920
The other chance is to kill it, he goes to the ceiling, he's got the reset, he's gonna

03:16:08.920 --> 03:16:34.920
I

03:16:34.920 --> 03:16:38.920
Teams from around the world have qualified for the RLCS 2026 World Championship,

03:16:38.920 --> 03:16:44.840
and this year, for the first time, a non-EU-NA region may well be top of our power rankings.

03:16:45.640 --> 03:16:49.560
Nina's headline will inevitably be Monkey Moon going for the Dickies Arena 3 Pete,

03:16:49.560 --> 03:16:54.120
and second place in the Paris Major, before losing to the eventual winners at EWC,

03:16:54.120 --> 03:16:57.320
suggests Ole'Evon is cooking something spicier per head of Worlds.

03:16:57.320 --> 03:17:00.200
Monkey Moon caught up to himself, scared him to death!

03:17:00.200 --> 03:17:06.360
Tell that to the Falcons, the team who did win EWC.

03:17:06.360 --> 03:17:11.360
While Twisted Minds are first seed, Falcons are Rocket League's most informed powerhouse.

03:17:11.360 --> 03:17:15.600
Their move to bring in Monkey Noon's world champ teammate has finally clicked, just at

03:17:15.600 --> 03:17:16.600
the right time.

03:17:16.600 --> 03:17:21.360
But tell that to R8, the team who stopped Falcons qualifying for the Paris Major.

03:17:21.360 --> 03:17:25.480
Sure, Falcons made light work of them on LAN, but Mena's last chance qualifiers

03:17:25.480 --> 03:17:28.080
are a team who've had the best of Falcons throughout the season.

03:17:28.080 --> 03:17:33.440
now they have LAN experience. All in all, this is a region every team they will be afraid of.

03:17:34.320 --> 03:17:39.040
South America's main headline is that Furia are not the region's number one team.

03:17:39.040 --> 03:17:44.400
Between them, Furia and number one seed made in Brazil have won five of Sam's six opens.

03:17:44.400 --> 03:17:49.200
Overall, they're separated by a massive two points. Oh my goodness, look at the difference.

03:17:49.200 --> 03:17:55.600
While offline, MIBR's top 12 at both majors is more consistent than Furia's top 16, top eight.

03:17:55.600 --> 03:18:00.880
In truth, this hasn't been South America's best season on the world stage, except for beating the reigning world champs.

03:18:00.880 --> 03:18:04.880
But these are experienced LAN players capable of beating anyone having an off day.

03:18:04.880 --> 03:18:09.280
Chuck Knight, Benz and former Fury and Drafino in the mix as their last chance qualifiers,

03:18:09.280 --> 03:18:12.320
and no one will be underestimating the Sand teams in Fort Worth.

03:18:13.120 --> 03:18:15.760
Oceania sure does love its tiebreakers.

03:18:15.760 --> 03:18:20.160
This summer round, after being unsplittable all season and making one major each,

03:18:20.160 --> 03:18:24.720
two teams' chances of glory came down to a single best of seven to make Worlds.

03:18:24.720 --> 03:18:27.360
CJ CJ, money informal, take it away.

03:18:27.360 --> 03:18:30.880
Does he get that last touch with Fever's there, but then head boosts as well right behind?

03:18:30.880 --> 03:18:34.240
In fact, it's a fake to be head, and that's how they retake the lead.

03:18:34.240 --> 03:18:37.840
I guess, he's a cross banana head, huge preach, I could see fine too.

03:18:37.840 --> 03:18:40.800
He is! Oh, what a jump from a banana head!

03:18:40.800 --> 03:18:45.280
After last year's top six wild turrets, Wildcard are back to try and match,

03:18:45.280 --> 03:18:47.200
or even outdo that accomplishment.

03:18:48.080 --> 03:18:52.640
Kevin, Catalyst, and Stinks have utterly dominated APAC all season,

03:18:52.640 --> 03:18:55.040
winning five of the region's six opens.

03:18:55.040 --> 03:18:56.320
Although they'd come close,

03:18:56.320 --> 03:18:59.280
what they hadn't done this season was claim an international win,

03:18:59.280 --> 03:19:02.080
until the e-sports world cup rolled around.

03:19:02.080 --> 03:19:04.080
I love that. It's starting for TSM.

03:19:04.080 --> 03:19:05.680
Catalan's gonna get another eight!

03:19:05.680 --> 03:19:06.640
Okay, got it.

03:19:06.640 --> 03:19:08.080
Six fine trunks find Kevin.

03:19:08.080 --> 03:19:09.440
He does go high with it.

03:19:09.440 --> 03:19:10.560
Kevin fancies it.

03:19:10.560 --> 03:19:12.160
I want to go!

03:19:12.160 --> 03:19:13.520
Daniel tries to get the way.

03:19:13.520 --> 03:19:14.480
TSM back.

03:19:14.480 --> 03:19:16.560
He wants the pass, turns around.

03:19:16.560 --> 03:19:17.680
Daniel!

03:19:18.800 --> 03:19:20.400
The upset of the tournament!

03:19:20.400 --> 03:19:26.160
APAC's TSM are pre-jump kings who fear no one, while arguably keeping a bit too much humility.

03:19:31.280 --> 03:19:34.720
When all lose, TSM will be everyone's second team in Fort Worth.

03:19:34.720 --> 03:19:38.560
They start their tournament with a match versus meanest, dangerous third seed, R8.

03:19:39.600 --> 03:19:43.120
No region has gained more from the two-thirds rule than Sub-Saharan Africa.

03:19:43.120 --> 03:19:47.280
Local Snowy and Guns join Spaniard Tekos in theirs and fight theas,

03:19:47.280 --> 03:19:51.760
3rd RLCS LAN this season, their realistic target, take at least one game,

03:19:51.760 --> 03:19:55.120
something they haven't quite managed to do in any offline event this season.

03:19:55.120 --> 03:20:03.200
That's enough from us, it's time to find out who takes the RLCS 2026 World Championship.

03:20:17.280 --> 03:20:38.240
I live my feet off the ground, like gravity take me up, as beautiful as it's been, it's

03:20:38.240 --> 03:20:41.240
Time for me to go

03:20:41.240 --> 03:20:44.240
I want to say the way

03:20:44.240 --> 03:20:47.240
I want to feel the way

03:20:47.240 --> 03:20:51.240
Thisness in my soul

03:20:51.240 --> 03:20:55.240
I've got to go all the way

03:20:55.240 --> 03:20:58.240
To eternity

03:20:58.240 --> 03:21:01.240
I will run all the way

03:21:01.240 --> 03:21:04.240
To see you

03:21:04.240 --> 03:21:06.240
I've got to go

03:21:06.240 --> 03:21:08.240
The world

03:21:08.240 --> 03:21:10.240
The time has made

03:21:10.240 --> 03:21:12.240
Survival

03:21:14.240 --> 03:21:16.240
Seen

03:21:16.240 --> 03:21:18.240
The God

03:21:34.240 --> 03:21:47.640
A close upper bracket match, but North America gets the job done again, and Vertus Bro have

03:21:47.640 --> 03:21:52.440
punched their ticket to the group stage of the 2026 Rocket League World Championship.

03:21:52.440 --> 03:21:57.240
We're going to continue things on with an interregional battle between Falcons and

03:21:57.240 --> 03:21:58.240
the Mates.

03:21:58.240 --> 03:22:02.080
My thought was as a drop down to play the winner of Flut vs TSM, they are getting

03:22:02.080 --> 03:22:04.640
We're going to play that match right now on the alternate stream

03:22:04.640 --> 03:22:06.040
to assess you, because ROD supports.

03:22:06.040 --> 03:22:08.440
Make sure you got it pulled up if you haven't already, folks.

03:22:08.440 --> 03:22:11.120
But we'll make a money top of that match there, kids.

03:22:11.120 --> 03:22:13.240
I thought it was a great match for North America, though.

03:22:13.240 --> 03:22:15.640
I will say that because of the depth.

03:22:15.640 --> 03:22:17.920
We always talk about Europe has always been the deeper region.

03:22:17.920 --> 03:22:21.280
But lately, EWC, we saw in North America kind of pop off.

03:22:21.280 --> 03:22:23.720
VP does it again here with a big win.

03:22:23.720 --> 03:22:25.600
And it was a lot of clutch goals, I thought.

03:22:25.600 --> 03:22:28.160
So money top up, I think they played them close.

03:22:28.160 --> 03:22:30.800
VP, though, just when they needed to score

03:22:30.800 --> 03:22:32.800
And they needed to make a highlight goal.

03:22:32.800 --> 03:22:33.440
They got it.

03:22:33.440 --> 03:22:36.200
So they really came out and just won this match.

03:22:36.200 --> 03:22:36.720
Better team.

03:22:36.720 --> 03:22:37.440
Better team.

03:22:37.440 --> 03:22:39.120
They're the better players.

03:22:39.120 --> 03:22:41.080
I think Talki is the best player in that match in particular.

03:22:41.080 --> 03:22:42.480
I mean, he showed how we needed to.

03:22:42.480 --> 03:22:44.440
And then two please had a couple of big moments as well.

03:22:44.440 --> 03:22:45.880
Yeah, yeah, yeah, huge goal.

03:22:45.880 --> 03:22:46.920
Yeah, for a bit of tempo.

03:22:46.920 --> 03:22:48.080
Two fees, two feet.

03:22:48.080 --> 03:22:49.120
That's what you call it.

03:22:49.120 --> 03:22:50.120
He did.

03:22:50.120 --> 03:22:51.600
But we were talking about this team

03:22:51.600 --> 03:22:53.360
this way at the beginning of the season.

03:22:53.360 --> 03:22:55.400
And then there's just been so many coming up.

03:22:55.400 --> 03:22:57.320
Had you thought they were the best players in the pitch

03:22:57.320 --> 03:22:59.080
here, Joey, but then they weren't for so much of the season.

03:22:59.080 --> 03:23:02.520
It's so good to see them here in the play-ins getting back to that redacted.

03:23:02.520 --> 03:23:09.440
Yeah, and it does go to show that the struggles that VP have had in the second split online,

03:23:09.440 --> 03:23:14.440
it's not because they fell off massively, they maybe slowed down a little bit.

03:23:14.440 --> 03:23:19.080
This goal from 2kies is absolutely ridiculous, that's one of the best goals you're going to see alternative.

03:23:19.080 --> 03:23:24.320
And it's such an important moment in the series as well, but I don't think they fell off a lot.

03:23:24.320 --> 03:23:26.160
It was just footsteps up and took their spot.

03:23:26.160 --> 03:23:29.480
So VP are still looking really consistent.

03:23:29.480 --> 03:23:32.680
I'm really happy that they could do it at the Worlds play-ins.

03:23:32.680 --> 03:23:34.560
We saw first wavy into these last year.

03:23:34.560 --> 03:23:36.720
Really disappointed Worlds play-ins.

03:23:36.720 --> 03:23:37.720
But nothing made it through.

03:23:37.720 --> 03:23:39.200
I mean, that's sometimes how to cook your problems.

03:23:39.200 --> 03:23:40.680
I mean, you gotta have a little bit of experience

03:23:40.680 --> 03:23:41.760
your first time around.

03:23:41.760 --> 03:23:43.120
Yeah, talk to see what you're doing.

03:23:43.120 --> 03:23:43.960
Everything's in time.

03:23:43.960 --> 03:23:44.800
OT game three.

03:23:44.800 --> 03:23:46.160
Click on the YouTube broadcast.

03:23:46.160 --> 03:23:46.760
Raise it in.

03:23:46.760 --> 03:23:47.440
That's what we need to do.

03:23:47.440 --> 03:23:48.920
You saw a frustration though from Atami.

03:23:48.920 --> 03:23:51.040
That's the frustration of a player that knows

03:23:51.040 --> 03:23:52.360
they could beat this team.

03:23:52.360 --> 03:23:53.520
They felt like they were in it.

03:23:53.520 --> 03:23:54.720
They felt like it was right there.

03:23:54.720 --> 03:23:58.800
Just didn't quite execute in the matches when they needed them there.

03:23:58.800 --> 03:24:01.720
And they're now in the lower bracket on their tournament life.

03:24:01.720 --> 03:24:04.520
Yeah, very defensive series from both teams.

03:24:04.520 --> 03:24:07.120
Obviously it was 1.25 goals to 0.5.

03:24:07.120 --> 03:24:09.640
But then it just comes down to who can get that highlight?

03:24:09.640 --> 03:24:11.840
Who can get the ball just over the line?

03:24:11.840 --> 03:24:14.600
And we saw that from two-piece and tall throughout that match.

03:24:14.600 --> 03:24:16.560
The bracket continues with our first team

03:24:16.560 --> 03:24:18.920
through five years also on the other stream.

03:24:18.920 --> 03:24:21.680
They get a win, their first land game

03:24:21.680 --> 03:24:25.200
win of the season across any major land here,

03:24:25.200 --> 03:24:27.520
but that is the end of their tournament.

03:24:27.520 --> 03:24:28.960
Thank you for playing at the 2020

03:24:28.960 --> 03:24:29.960
6 World Championships.

03:24:29.960 --> 03:24:32.120
TSM versus foot is getting ready on the other side,

03:24:32.120 --> 03:24:35.600
but Virtus.Pro has qualified through that upper bracket.

03:24:35.600 --> 03:24:38.440
Monita will have one more chance down there in the bottom.

03:24:38.440 --> 03:24:40.880
They'll be one of our last matches of the day.

03:24:40.880 --> 03:24:42.680
Finals being the final matches of the day.

03:24:42.680 --> 03:24:44.920
We're going into the final one of the alternate stream.

03:24:44.920 --> 03:24:45.760
TSM versus foot.

03:24:45.760 --> 03:24:46.720
Esports are getting ready to go.

03:24:46.720 --> 03:24:48.080
I see them here in front of me.

03:24:48.080 --> 03:24:49.280
Getting ready to play that match.

03:24:49.280 --> 03:24:50.920
So that'll be a very, very important game.

03:24:50.920 --> 03:24:57.800
Honestly, Johnny, no idea who to say who's the favorite in that one foot looking kind of strong, but we just saw TSM take right to game five

03:24:57.800 --> 03:25:01.880
I surely got I think foot will win that TSM or you know an awesome team

03:25:01.880 --> 03:25:07.680
I love watching the play. I love the way they play but foot are a legitimate, you know, very legitimate team

03:25:07.680 --> 03:25:10.200
I think they can take games off any mobility seen that against Falcons

03:25:10.200 --> 03:25:16.200
So I think it's a bit too big of a task for TSM who needed to go through that uppers against R8

03:25:16.200 --> 03:25:22.000
They did to be fairly nearly did it, but yeah, I got through there over here on the main stream

03:25:22.000 --> 03:25:28.720
We have money E papa taking on the winner of that other match and then let's get into our next match here a fun

03:25:29.240 --> 03:25:32.600
Regional battle that has been played many times here Gibbs

03:25:32.920 --> 03:25:35.960
All right taking on Falcons again in twenty-four years. Yeah

03:25:35.960 --> 03:25:37.960
We talked about the Falcons are tournament favorites

03:25:37.960 --> 03:25:42.880
But the only teams they could not beat throughout the Paris split was twisted mines and RA esports

03:25:42.880 --> 03:25:44.840
already these four to beat them twice.

03:25:44.840 --> 03:25:46.880
They beat him in open five four to three,

03:25:46.880 --> 03:25:50.060
then they also beat him four to one back in open four

03:25:50.060 --> 03:25:52.840
to take that spot away for the Paris major.

03:25:52.840 --> 03:25:55.600
The problem is when they play on land,

03:25:55.600 --> 03:25:58.320
it's a different team for both sides.

03:25:58.320 --> 03:25:59.920
R8 kind of crumbled under the pressure

03:25:59.920 --> 03:26:02.120
and Falcons, they rise up.

03:26:02.120 --> 03:26:04.480
I like Falcons, they've shown that experience

03:26:04.480 --> 03:26:06.320
and the way that they just played against

03:26:06.320 --> 03:26:08.480
has been feeling extremely confident

03:26:08.480 --> 03:26:10.760
for this match up here against R8 today.

03:26:10.760 --> 03:26:14.640
Abdullah and Ghazi returning as LCK champions here for Mina.

03:26:14.640 --> 03:26:17.440
They have picked up the world's rookie, Mohamed,

03:26:17.440 --> 03:26:20.040
and they're looking to make it further this time around.

03:26:27.120 --> 03:26:32.240
I would describe the 2026 season as the dark horse season

03:26:32.240 --> 03:26:34.360
because nobody thought that we would do something.

03:26:34.360 --> 03:26:36.240
We didn't do great at the Paris Major,

03:26:36.240 --> 03:26:39.320
but like we got experience from it.

03:26:39.320 --> 03:26:42.600
We learned that we can be at the big stage, we can do our best.

03:26:42.600 --> 03:26:45.600
The World Championship is the biggest tournament

03:26:45.600 --> 03:26:49.080
because I mean every professional player wants to be a World Champion

03:26:49.080 --> 03:26:50.720
and like it means everything.

03:26:50.720 --> 03:26:54.160
Like that's everything I'm aiming for as a player.

03:26:54.160 --> 03:26:56.320
I'm proud to represent the MENA region.

03:26:56.320 --> 03:26:58.760
I want to earn a very good place

03:26:58.760 --> 03:27:00.720
because the MENA deserves it

03:27:00.720 --> 03:27:02.280
and the MENA players are so good.

03:27:02.280 --> 03:27:05.960
Our team, they give me energy that's like they want to win.

03:27:05.960 --> 03:27:07.760
They motivate me so much that I want to win.

03:27:07.760 --> 03:27:10.640
I want to win like their energy in the game and their comps.

03:27:10.640 --> 03:27:12.360
I'm so lucky to have them in my team.

03:27:12.360 --> 03:27:15.040
I think that our rights will prove that nothing is impossible.

03:27:20.560 --> 03:27:22.920
A lot of confidence coming out there from RA.

03:27:22.920 --> 03:27:24.720
Let's see if that confidence continues.

03:27:24.720 --> 03:27:26.640
Avadoula with me right now.

03:27:26.640 --> 03:27:29.720
You sound very confident in your matchup,

03:27:29.720 --> 03:27:31.480
but I guess whoever you face,

03:27:31.480 --> 03:27:33.160
Falcons on the other side though,

03:27:33.160 --> 03:27:34.360
not going to be easy.

03:27:34.360 --> 03:27:36.320
Are you still confident?

03:27:36.320 --> 03:27:40.720
Yeah, we're confident Falcons are not an easy team. Everybody knows that they are a big team.

03:27:40.720 --> 03:27:43.720
They're one of the strongest. They just won AWC.

03:27:43.720 --> 03:27:46.720
But we'll do everything we can to win it.

03:27:46.720 --> 03:27:51.720
Yeah, okay. Well, I want to go back to the plans earlier you played TSM.

03:27:51.720 --> 03:27:58.720
And that went to game 5. Did that make you guys worried or were you surprised that TSM brought you to game 5?

03:27:58.720 --> 03:28:02.720
I mean TSM is a very good team. We didn't start that series very well.

03:28:02.720 --> 03:28:05.720
Like we lost the series ended 3-2.

03:28:05.720 --> 03:28:09.080
But, like, the one gave us confidence that we can beat Falcons.

03:28:09.080 --> 03:28:14.520
That's great. So, in between with your teammates, what do you talk about after a match like TSM,

03:28:14.520 --> 03:28:17.400
and then going against Falcons? It's a very different pace.

03:28:17.400 --> 03:28:21.320
It's a different pace, but we know Falcons very well from the regionals,

03:28:21.320 --> 03:28:24.920
and we know what we can do, and we'll do everything we can to win this game.

03:28:24.920 --> 03:28:28.840
So the question I'm going to ask you, do you think you can do it? Do you got this one?

03:28:28.840 --> 03:28:30.040
Yeah, I'm very confident.

03:28:30.040 --> 03:28:33.160
I love to hear that confidence. Keep that up in the field, Abdullah.

03:28:33.160 --> 03:28:35.520
So thank you so much for chatting and good luck.

03:28:35.520 --> 03:28:38.040
Let's go take a look at the Falcons.

03:28:38.040 --> 03:28:41.240
Boston Major was pretty good overall.

03:28:41.240 --> 03:28:42.480
Almost made the grand final.

03:28:42.480 --> 03:28:43.760
We were one goal away.

03:28:43.760 --> 03:28:46.480
And then, you know, split two, we didn't make the majors.

03:28:46.480 --> 03:28:48.920
So obviously that's like the lowest level

03:28:48.920 --> 03:28:50.320
in my entire career.

03:28:50.320 --> 03:28:51.680
And then right after that, we bounced back

03:28:51.680 --> 03:28:54.680
and won EWC quite easily.

03:28:54.680 --> 03:28:58.960
The expression highs and lows sums up perfectly.

03:28:58.960 --> 03:29:01.200
As always, we're going to have to beat the best

03:29:01.200 --> 03:29:06.560
in the world which isn't always easy. I think this time I'll be even more prepared than I was last

03:29:06.560 --> 03:29:13.520
time. Last time was my first LCS LAN victory ever. This time I'm even more used to it and more

03:29:13.520 --> 03:29:20.880
dangerous than ever. If I win this one I'll be one of the three greatest Rocket League players of

03:29:20.880 --> 03:29:27.680
all time in terms of achievements. I would mean a lot to see Falcons win this because it's the

03:29:27.680 --> 03:29:33.680
It's the greatest achievement in the world championship is Falcons 2-1.

03:29:35.680 --> 03:29:40.680
The Falcons on the other side here and I'm hanging out again with the whom we're getting a lot of time together.

03:29:40.680 --> 03:29:41.680
This is fun.

03:29:42.680 --> 03:29:48.680
Of course, R8 on the other side of the field, a familiar matchup, a team that you know.

03:29:48.680 --> 03:29:52.680
Did that give you confidence to be able to see them or did it make you more worried?

03:29:52.680 --> 03:29:53.680
worried.

03:29:53.680 --> 03:30:02.040
R8 is a really big team that we struggled against for the whole season, it's not an easy game.

03:30:02.040 --> 03:30:07.920
We are confident because lately we were dominating against them, so we are confident.

03:30:07.920 --> 03:30:12.120
That's good, and they are also confident though, so this will be a good matchup I think.

03:30:12.120 --> 03:30:17.680
For you guys when you struggle against a team like R8 in the season, do you study them

03:30:17.680 --> 03:30:21.720
specifically or do you try to just work on your own stuff?

03:30:21.720 --> 03:30:29.720
It is a little bit of both, working our stuff, and what are they doing that makes us struggle?

03:30:29.720 --> 03:30:31.720
So it's both of them.

03:30:31.720 --> 03:30:34.720
And by the sounds of it, by the end of the season, you kind of have that figured out?

03:30:34.720 --> 03:30:38.720
Are you worried maybe they got a secret weapon that they're going to come at you guys with?

03:30:38.720 --> 03:30:42.720
Of course, they might change everything, so we are ready for everything.

03:30:42.720 --> 03:30:47.720
Yeah, okay, I mean I guess for the team as a coach, do you have a certain speech

03:30:47.720 --> 03:30:52.360
speech or a certain thing you like to say, what is that last thing you say to the team

03:30:52.360 --> 03:30:55.160
before they go into the matchup and play?

03:30:55.160 --> 03:31:00.040
I like, in Arabic, and I probably understand this, it's called chilling.

03:31:00.040 --> 03:31:05.640
Chilling, I like it. Relax and calm. I like that, that's good, that's a good philosophy.

03:31:05.640 --> 03:31:08.840
Hey, well go tell that to your team right now, so you can get ready for your matchup.

03:31:08.840 --> 03:31:10.920
Thank you so much, and maybe we'll see you again later.

03:31:10.920 --> 03:31:12.760
Thank you.

03:31:12.760 --> 03:31:16.280
So is Drolley big chilling right now, or is he feeling okay?

03:31:16.280 --> 03:31:20.120
Seems sleepy. Is he asleep? Yeah, he's big chili. Yeah, calm for sure

03:31:23.760 --> 03:31:29.120
Come on, let's go. I mean again, we know what the Falcons it can do doesn't matter what their postures are

03:31:29.120 --> 03:31:32.760
We know what we need that didn't he in the match against foot mid-series

03:31:32.760 --> 03:31:35.560
Yeah, during the time out he just took a nap, which is very impressive

03:31:35.560 --> 03:31:37.900
So I'm interested to see if that's gonna work out for him

03:31:37.900 --> 03:31:42.520
I'm also very interested to know who the other two players are that Drally's referring to when he says winning

03:31:42.520 --> 03:31:44.020
We're all to put in top three all time

03:31:44.020 --> 03:31:48.060
We assume a monkey-menace to be one of them, but I don't know who you're talking about

03:31:49.560 --> 03:31:55.680
Probably wins this for turbo. I thought it's turbo. I thought if you include turbo you go include K-dup of ice Marcia

03:31:55.680 --> 03:31:58.240
So maybe it's here. I think it's very similar

03:32:00.160 --> 03:32:04.860
K-dup K-dup stop more of everything else everything else I've received word that

03:32:05.260 --> 03:32:12.360
Maybe not feeling particularly well. Okay, but who knows flu games are a thing that seems to be common across sports and eSports here

03:32:12.360 --> 03:32:18.200
I don't know that it necessarily lessens the threat of how good of a player he is and I mean Johnny

03:32:18.200 --> 03:32:22.340
It like speculate with me here for just a second like I bet the back at the beginning of the year when this was one of the

03:32:22.340 --> 03:32:27.360
First roster changes was made a falcon's drop here. Can you pick up drawly one of the most aggressive moves?

03:32:27.360 --> 03:32:30.400
We've seen like in the history of RLCS roster moves

03:32:31.040 --> 03:32:33.420
Having seen how the seasons panned out now, right?

03:32:33.640 --> 03:32:36.880
Not as not the results necessarily you thought they'd have in the middle of the season

03:32:36.880 --> 03:32:39.600
But coming up as EWC champions one of the strongest teams coming in here

03:32:39.600 --> 03:32:42.600
would you, if you were to go back, would you make the change?

03:32:42.600 --> 03:32:50.600
I, well, it hindsight is 20-20, of course, but I think yes because it has seemingly fixed a lot of the issues it had.

03:32:50.600 --> 03:32:56.600
Falcons always had issues with the defense side of the ball, and that's not something that happens anymore.

03:32:56.600 --> 03:32:58.600
They looked really good defensively with Raleigh.

03:32:58.600 --> 03:33:02.600
And the TRK, of course, during Twisted Minds, he's elevated the offense, but the defense is against the lacking.

03:33:02.600 --> 03:33:07.600
So I think yes, overall, also seems to have weakened KC briefly.

03:33:07.600 --> 03:33:14.600
So like overall, yes true. Yeah, maybe the weekend enemy just lateral move for you. I work on your favor there

03:33:14.600 --> 03:33:19.080
You know chat let us know who you think is gonna win the press of fan vote Johnny who you got I've got falcons

03:33:19.080 --> 03:33:24.040
Like I said, I'm confident because of what we saw from them against foot whereas R8 struggling with TSM

03:33:24.040 --> 03:33:28.000
Doesn't look like they've got their best form today. Yeah falcons are my tournament favorites

03:33:28.000 --> 03:33:32.000
I haven't won in this entire thing. The only way to do that is fighting a short day for drawly so he can get some rest

03:33:32.000 --> 03:33:34.120
So I'm going Falcons as well.

03:33:34.120 --> 03:33:37.280
R8 hasn't been in Falcons since April of this year.

03:33:37.280 --> 03:33:39.240
And the last three matches that they played against each other,

03:33:39.240 --> 03:33:40.440
Falcons have been in every single time.

03:33:40.440 --> 03:33:42.480
Falcons will be in for a fourth time in a row by a year.

03:33:42.480 --> 03:33:43.440
Falcons all day, baby.

03:33:43.440 --> 03:33:45.200
Drolley was feeling the same way earlier,

03:33:45.200 --> 03:33:47.160
and he looked very strong in that matchup as well.

03:33:47.160 --> 03:33:48.360
I've got the Falcons.

03:33:48.360 --> 03:33:50.280
How does the coin feel about the Falcons on one side?

03:33:50.280 --> 03:33:51.760
R8 on the other end of the air.

03:33:51.760 --> 03:33:53.360
He's going to come up for R8 on this one.

03:33:53.360 --> 03:33:55.320
The coin picking the underdog.

03:33:55.320 --> 03:33:57.920
Coins now had a good day when it's going to get fast so far.

03:33:57.920 --> 03:33:58.640
By the way, bye.

03:33:58.640 --> 03:33:59.200
Yeah, you have it.

03:33:59.200 --> 03:33:59.960
You have it again.

03:33:59.960 --> 03:34:00.480
I missed one.

03:34:00.480 --> 03:34:02.200
Hey man, get perfect.

03:34:02.200 --> 03:34:03.020
Can we get a kid?

03:34:03.020 --> 03:34:03.800
You're there all are you

03:34:03.800 --> 03:34:04.560
perfect so far to John?

03:34:04.560 --> 03:34:05.000
Yeah, of course.

03:34:05.000 --> 03:34:05.680
OK, thank you.

03:34:05.680 --> 03:34:06.360
Come on over here.

03:34:06.360 --> 03:34:07.600
Let's give you give me a little bit.

03:34:07.600 --> 03:34:08.440
Yeah, I had a little hit.

03:34:08.440 --> 03:34:09.160
I was looking.

03:34:09.160 --> 03:34:09.600
I was looking.

03:34:09.600 --> 03:34:10.280
I was looking.

03:34:10.280 --> 03:34:10.680
I was looking.

03:34:10.680 --> 03:34:11.080
I was looking.

03:34:11.080 --> 03:34:12.040
I was looking.

03:34:12.040 --> 03:34:13.400
And a doctor over there.

03:34:13.400 --> 03:34:14.440
And a true true.

03:34:14.440 --> 03:34:16.000
I mean, they gave me a lot of reasons to doubt.

03:34:16.000 --> 03:34:17.520
Of course, the season was really good to see him

03:34:17.520 --> 03:34:18.480
bouncing back so far.

03:34:18.480 --> 03:34:21.120
I would love to see that team continue to pop off here.

03:34:21.120 --> 03:34:23.480
Malcolm's very they were popular in chat earlier.

03:34:23.480 --> 03:34:25.720
I think they're a big reason why the fans have been up

03:34:25.720 --> 03:34:27.640
and Adam and chat and they're going to continue to be a

03:34:27.640 --> 03:34:31.320
favorites here this rate this battle went back and forth during the regular

03:34:31.320 --> 03:34:35.960
season but lately the birds been flying higher falcons on one side r8 on the

03:34:35.960 --> 03:34:40.240
other and a spot in the groups on the line only one team can continue from

03:34:40.240 --> 03:34:45.720
this match the other battle later on today falcons versus r8 and the RLCS

03:34:45.720 --> 03:34:53.240
world championship so it's a regional matchup to try and qualify for the

03:34:53.240 --> 03:34:56.360
main event both these teams have got two opportunities lose this and you

03:34:56.360 --> 03:35:00.320
remain in the tournament that as we have heard very recently Falcons have been

03:35:00.320 --> 03:35:04.700
the dominant team in this rivalry. Game one brought you back progressive. Let's get

03:35:04.700 --> 03:35:08.780
into it Jay. Now they have as of late chugging, but if you remember back heading

03:35:08.780 --> 03:35:14.060
into the Paris Major, R8 got the better of team Falcons. Two times in a row team

03:35:14.060 --> 03:35:18.420
Falcons didn't even show up in Paris. So I think that is going to help the

03:35:18.420 --> 03:35:22.580
confidence for R8 knowing that they do have what it takes to take down team

03:35:22.580 --> 03:35:24.580
Falcons is actually at a best of five.

03:35:24.580 --> 03:35:28.580
I think I've been in an incredibly good team as you guys can turn around for this.

03:35:29.580 --> 03:35:32.580
From the online split. I think there's been a lot of questions about that there,

03:35:32.580 --> 03:35:34.580
but to translate that into the live event.

03:35:34.580 --> 03:35:37.580
Paris was not a fantastic show from them.

03:35:37.580 --> 03:35:40.580
EWC they were out pretty early on as well.

03:35:41.580 --> 03:35:43.580
Just need to be able to translate that.

03:35:43.580 --> 03:35:46.580
It can be difficult. Oh wow, power clear.

03:35:46.580 --> 03:35:48.580
And this is something that football will tell you all about.

03:35:48.580 --> 03:35:54.380
Now, the Falcons counterattack is unbelievably difficult to try and deal with.

03:35:54.380 --> 03:35:58.580
I mean, every player from Team Falcons is very difficult to deal with.

03:35:58.580 --> 03:36:04.080
I think for R8, their big challenge has been doing what they've been able to do online,

03:36:04.080 --> 03:36:07.380
on land, when the stage lights are on.

03:36:07.380 --> 03:36:12.780
So, we're starting to see that the more and more experience could be on the precipice

03:36:12.780 --> 03:36:16.380
of a breakout performance, but, oh man, that's a good one.

03:36:16.380 --> 03:36:18.780
I can't say about that, but I'm just like a really bad shot.

03:36:18.780 --> 03:36:21.500
And Abdullah wants some of the challenger.

03:36:21.500 --> 03:36:23.500
Killers not going to give many of it.

03:36:23.500 --> 03:36:25.500
Come on mate.

03:36:25.500 --> 03:36:27.500
Just early.

03:36:27.500 --> 03:36:31.500
Dangerous to show your hand early if you're going to go for those just-pure spawns.

03:36:31.500 --> 03:36:33.500
It's happened to always take a low of 15.

03:36:33.500 --> 03:36:37.500
Oh wait, and that's somehow pinged one of its way back into position.

03:36:37.500 --> 03:36:39.500
Gazi's low of boost. Has he got the set?

03:36:39.500 --> 03:36:43.500
Abdullah thinks better than diving in again for a while.

03:36:43.500 --> 03:36:47.500
Just shut down that play. Press load things down.

03:36:47.500 --> 03:36:51.500
Thomas, not much movement will get a pass attempted over to the middle.

03:36:51.500 --> 03:36:59.500
So far, Shogun, we've seen both these teams well matched, but T-Fuckins do have that slight edge here on possession.

03:36:59.500 --> 03:37:03.500
And there's the bucket temp well done by Mahomet.

03:37:03.500 --> 03:37:05.500
And Mahomet's trying to break away against the 15.

03:37:05.500 --> 03:37:09.500
Garzi, first time shots. That's not going to trouble killers too much.

03:37:09.500 --> 03:37:14.340
This might, though, that's very awkward, but see all of our aims stuck in the

03:37:14.340 --> 03:37:19.300
other side of the field. I need to be a little bit happier to just go for that and

03:37:19.300 --> 03:37:22.740
this is actually a good chance, Gazi. A little bit late, you don't really want to be

03:37:22.740 --> 03:37:26.580
catching those on their way back down. Makes the air dribble that much more

03:37:26.580 --> 03:37:29.940
difficult. But it did allow a team to get that boost, try to move up field,

03:37:29.940 --> 03:37:35.340
get some position. It's the same spot every time, Falcons.

03:37:35.340 --> 03:37:39.380
19 Falcons knocking on the door here.

03:37:39.380 --> 03:37:43.060
Adola so many times has been there to close the door.

03:37:43.060 --> 03:37:45.460
Trucking down those attacks.

03:37:45.460 --> 03:37:46.820
Adola is tough to read.

03:37:46.820 --> 03:37:48.340
Fingals are really nicely even.

03:37:48.340 --> 03:37:51.340
He's able to stay behind that ball to get the 50.

03:37:51.340 --> 03:37:54.340
Defensively both teams playing so well right now.

03:37:54.340 --> 03:37:56.340
Oh!

03:37:56.340 --> 03:37:58.340
Oh, we won't give out it.

03:37:58.340 --> 03:38:01.340
Don't jump early.

03:38:01.340 --> 03:38:03.340
We can put on a big side.

03:38:03.340 --> 03:38:05.340
We can play over on a siren

03:38:07.140 --> 03:38:12.900
Stick it right on to your monitor people do it anyway against the last oh, and they still concede

03:38:13.580 --> 03:38:15.580
Get a mean of pause. Do you get me to pause?

03:38:17.980 --> 03:38:19.980
So we'll figure out what's going on there

03:38:21.740 --> 03:38:24.060
Yeah, yeah, also, we'll see if the goal stand it seemed

03:38:25.300 --> 03:38:26.460
like

03:38:26.460 --> 03:38:31.820
It would Raleigh. Okay. That's good news file. Yes good news for Falcons does appear to be drawly

03:38:31.820 --> 03:38:36.260
You're trolley, and you're ill, how bad is it gonna be where you're just like,

03:38:36.260 --> 03:38:40.860
okay I do need to fix this, but you do kind of just want to get off the stage as quickly as possible?

03:38:40.860 --> 03:38:46.820
Well, you know, I don't know, because maybe he's locked in, maybe he lives for it, maybe this helps him to live a little bit better.

03:38:46.820 --> 03:38:49.820
I can't tell you if he was locked in or completely locked out.

03:38:49.820 --> 03:38:53.820
But I want to talk a little bit about that Roa school that we just saw.

03:38:53.820 --> 03:39:02.660
Abdullah has been doing such a good job of shutting down those attacks, but on that play he's a little late to the play

03:39:02.660 --> 03:39:06.020
Rwass showing like he could go for that flip reset and

03:39:06.340 --> 03:39:11.340
Abdullah is trying to cover both angles Rwass so smart so good in those 1v1 moments

03:39:11.340 --> 03:39:17.740
You know he shows the flip reset height instead just goes for that low 50 classic low 50 one of the highest percentage plays in the game

03:39:17.940 --> 03:39:23.500
It's not the most beautiful, but it works, but it works. Yep. One of them gets you a trophy

03:39:23.820 --> 03:39:26.260
the other one gets you a top play.

03:39:26.260 --> 03:39:28.060
I know which one I would rather.

03:39:28.060 --> 03:39:30.260
Yeah, I go into the point about Abdullah.

03:39:30.260 --> 03:39:31.420
I do like his positioning,

03:39:31.420 --> 03:39:33.460
but his positioning is good for snapshots.

03:39:33.460 --> 03:39:34.300
The way Falcons have been playing,

03:39:34.300 --> 03:39:35.740
that a lot of them have just been,

03:39:35.740 --> 03:39:36.460
we've got the ball in the midfield,

03:39:36.460 --> 03:39:37.340
we're gonna set the shot first time.

03:39:37.340 --> 03:39:38.540
Abdullah is a great spot for that,

03:39:38.540 --> 03:39:39.940
because he's quite deep.

03:39:39.940 --> 03:39:41.460
For those plays though,

03:39:41.460 --> 03:39:43.580
you give Rahwas time, he's already up in the air.

03:39:43.580 --> 03:39:45.300
You know, Abdullah has been on the goal line

03:39:45.300 --> 03:39:46.140
for all of these plays.

03:39:46.140 --> 03:39:47.420
The problem is you've got an air-tripling

03:39:47.420 --> 03:39:48.580
Rahwas against you.

03:39:48.580 --> 03:39:50.460
The last thing you need is,

03:39:50.460 --> 03:39:53.060
I have to win this 50,

03:39:53.060 --> 03:39:54.280
All the bull is in my net.

03:39:54.280 --> 03:39:54.520
Yeah.

03:39:54.520 --> 03:39:57.120
And the closer that you are to your own net,

03:39:57.120 --> 03:39:59.840
the worse it is for you as a defender.

03:39:59.840 --> 03:40:00.680
You want to be getting out.

03:40:00.680 --> 03:40:02.840
You don't want to be challenging the ball in the goal line.

03:40:02.840 --> 03:40:04.840
Because if you even make the slightest mistake,

03:40:04.840 --> 03:40:07.040
that 50 goes backwards, you're going to get scored on.

03:40:07.040 --> 03:40:11.080
So I think it was just great continued pressure

03:40:11.080 --> 03:40:13.480
from team Falcons not cracking

03:40:13.480 --> 03:40:15.160
under the pressure that they've

03:40:15.160 --> 03:40:17.680
been facing, which is a little more limited.

03:40:17.680 --> 03:40:19.280
We've seen team Falcons with the majority

03:40:19.280 --> 03:40:20.480
of the possession in this game.

03:40:20.480 --> 03:40:26.080
Looks like this team Falcons squad does have the edge so far, but it's very early in this matchup.

03:40:26.080 --> 03:40:33.480
Team Falcons though, you know that they are surging in confidence after that huge e-sports World Cup win that they just had.

03:40:33.480 --> 03:40:37.480
Even though they didn't make Paris, I think that win has reinvigorated this team.

03:40:37.480 --> 03:40:41.480
By the way, if we have any further pauses, the way you're going to be able to tell back the players,

03:40:41.480 --> 03:40:45.480
as we do get first on shot, we're not going to be able to go back in, is just watch for it while it's camera.

03:40:45.480 --> 03:40:47.480
The moment he starts leaning forward, that's probably a good...

03:40:47.480 --> 03:40:48.480
Hell.

03:40:48.480 --> 03:40:57.480
So 1-0, yeah, you could be right by the EWC, because we saw it two years ago as well, when it was, uh, BDS, all season for the most part.

03:40:57.480 --> 03:41:07.480
Really? Yeah, I'm not kidding. Why an EWC? I think that was the year that they had lost to pioneers, and got knocked out, and that made me the greatest upset.

03:41:07.480 --> 03:41:13.480
Okay, okay, okay. That BDS. That. Which one won over here?

03:41:13.480 --> 03:41:17.480
Yeah, I'm pretty good. The one with trolley.

03:41:17.480 --> 03:41:19.480
Oh, he's, uh...

03:41:19.480 --> 03:41:24.480
I'm sure the accomplishers that he's got, you wouldn't think that trolley's career has been as sure as it has been.

03:41:24.480 --> 03:41:29.480
First one's of the same time as Nas, Nas took a little bit longer to really find his footing in the pro scene,

03:41:29.480 --> 03:41:31.480
but you can see that he's very recently.

03:41:31.480 --> 03:41:36.480
Two Moroccans still competing over who can win the most trophies.

03:41:36.480 --> 03:41:55.480
But an interesting comment there, somebody, if Drolley does get interviewed and he says top three, you know, which other players does he play for, but three, two, would love to know that because I think Drolley making a very strong case for greatest of all time with how difficult things are and the eSports World Cup wins that he's had.

03:41:55.480 --> 03:41:59.480
Orino, the only move he ends is that he wins it.

03:41:59.480 --> 03:42:03.480
One minute left here, one goal still to difference.

03:42:03.480 --> 03:42:05.480
I'm doing that, the new track shakes that, drops down.

03:42:05.480 --> 03:42:07.480
Fake from Gandhi, he's got the tip right in one run.

03:42:07.480 --> 03:42:09.480
Judge Lima, put the habit!

03:42:09.480 --> 03:42:12.480
Well that ball was still in a tight frame.

03:42:12.480 --> 03:42:16.480
Everybody wants to reset, are they going to punish them? No quite.

03:42:16.480 --> 03:42:21.480
It was the right play call, it was just a shot, needed to be there just a second sooner.

03:42:21.480 --> 03:42:29.840
I don't think anybody could believe that he has the gall to just stay right still against the falcons.

03:42:29.840 --> 03:42:32.760
It was a long fake set up, that was a very long time.

03:42:32.760 --> 03:42:35.240
They're still trying to go for the blockbites, I've done this so far back.

03:42:35.240 --> 03:42:37.600
That is a heck of a 50.

03:42:37.600 --> 03:42:40.440
I've done this for a man positioning, it's incredibly deep.

03:42:40.440 --> 03:42:42.960
They're going to have to try and sense something though, they have run out of time here.

03:42:45.960 --> 03:42:46.960
I see.

03:42:46.960 --> 03:42:49.960
50, that's nice for them up there on the chase.

03:42:49.960 --> 03:42:52.960
Try and shut down the options in field.

03:42:52.960 --> 03:42:54.960
From the right, saves!

03:42:54.960 --> 03:42:58.960
Huge save on the last play of the game.

03:42:58.960 --> 03:43:01.960
Team Falcons closing it out.

03:43:01.960 --> 03:43:05.960
And that's what I would love to see on the highlight reel.

03:43:05.960 --> 03:43:06.960
We're in the replay package.

03:43:06.960 --> 03:43:08.960
That was a close call.

03:43:08.960 --> 03:43:09.960
The demo was there.

03:43:09.960 --> 03:43:12.960
It looked like the ball was in a dangerous spot.

03:43:12.960 --> 03:43:14.960
But man, clutch defense.

03:43:14.960 --> 03:43:17.960
Closing things out for Team Falcons.

03:43:17.960 --> 03:43:20.320
second-naked game, majority of the time, keep up it's...

03:43:20.320 --> 03:43:23.400
It always seemed like they had the initiative, but...

03:43:23.400 --> 03:43:28.640
R8 were right there, nipping on their heels that whole time.

03:43:28.640 --> 03:43:31.160
Yeah, certainly, I think it was a very slow start.

03:43:31.160 --> 03:43:33.680
You can definitely tell these teams are familiar with each other,

03:43:33.680 --> 03:43:36.760
because a lot of respect going into the potential plays,

03:43:36.760 --> 03:43:39.200
but yeah, here's the one who you've got to avoid.

03:43:39.200 --> 03:43:41.720
Rolasse, their drill, he's not going to complicate it.

03:43:41.720 --> 03:43:43.400
He knows the right place.

03:43:43.400 --> 03:43:45.160
Here's this final play here, Rolasse.

03:43:45.160 --> 03:43:50.760
Sneaks up, gets on the back wall, and then you know the tunnel vision was there for RA.

03:43:50.760 --> 03:43:56.360
The ball is sitting there at 0 seconds. Tunnel vision kicks in, Roas is banking on that,

03:43:56.360 --> 03:43:58.760
dives through to shut down that angle.

03:43:58.760 --> 03:44:01.960
He was able to get in that win, but it was not an easy win.

03:44:01.960 --> 03:44:03.360
They're not routine talkers by any means.

03:44:03.360 --> 03:44:10.160
If anything, actually, you can see, RA had a very good advantage in the latter half of that game on the challenges.

03:44:10.160 --> 03:44:15.880
They were delaying it a lot more, they were losing it into their own teammates in good positions.

03:44:15.880 --> 03:44:19.200
I think I just, I want to just keep high enough that I was positioning right now.

03:44:19.200 --> 03:44:22.600
Does he stay deep or does he, you know, take a few more risks?

03:44:22.600 --> 03:44:27.920
There's quite a few occasions where I'm like, we need somebody up here as we last look to try and do it yet again.

03:44:27.920 --> 03:44:30.160
And he had the double, yes, he countered, that was on his way.

03:44:30.160 --> 03:44:33.040
Has he got any support around? He's got Charlie left to try and get through.

03:44:33.040 --> 03:44:35.640
And yeah, that is one step too far.

03:44:35.640 --> 03:44:43.320
But you're right Shogun because on that big kickoff plate, they were playing a little bit tighter, a little more aggressive.

03:44:43.320 --> 03:44:45.880
X-Shark comes out one second sooner, I think they're scoring.

03:44:46.520 --> 03:44:48.680
He has a lot of wait-and-see, I feel.

03:44:48.680 --> 03:44:53.160
Oh, alright, and usually wait-and-see against Falcon Beans, wait-and-see the ball in your net.

03:44:54.600 --> 03:44:57.160
As they do the demo, can they get another buff around here?

03:44:57.160 --> 03:45:01.400
Double's on his way! Looks to go for a shot off, but no cringe today.

03:45:01.400 --> 03:45:09.240
Very good help there from Killers getting back just in time, but we have seen a lot of demos connecting for RA even last game

03:45:09.720 --> 03:45:14.880
In the midfield and in their attacking half. Well, it's very good demos

03:45:15.680 --> 03:45:17.000
simply

03:45:17.000 --> 03:45:19.000
Opening up opportunities

03:45:19.000 --> 03:45:21.000
So just

03:45:21.960 --> 03:45:24.880
So on those two players on the back wall zero boost between them

03:45:26.000 --> 03:45:30.880
Almost zero communication, but I just call teammate off at the right time for the reset

03:45:31.400 --> 03:45:35.160
Killis is at no boost in front of him, he's still got rid of it. Now he's picked up the 100.

03:45:35.160 --> 03:45:39.560
Look to the passing play, Abdullah. Straight into the path. Over the last first time shot from here.

03:45:39.560 --> 03:45:42.120
Just looking to try and make it awkward, realizing he didn't have any support.

03:45:46.680 --> 03:45:54.040
Like you can see though, from RA, many of the demos, you saw that call-off as well.

03:45:54.600 --> 03:46:00.840
It seems like the comms working out. Abdullah going for gold then, but it seems like every time!

03:46:00.840 --> 03:46:05.720
It's a long boost! Die! For the same! It's somehow Team Falcon to make the same!

03:46:05.720 --> 03:46:08.600
Yeah, alright, I'm gonna have to just be brave on one of these and say,

03:46:08.600 --> 03:46:12.040
Okay, if I believe you've got this outplay, I will be there!

03:46:12.600 --> 03:46:17.480
Right now, they're getting them, and probably just send their next person up to try and get rid of it.

03:46:17.480 --> 03:46:19.000
Is there really no charges at any point?

03:46:19.960 --> 03:46:22.120
What? They're kind of late, and...

03:46:22.120 --> 03:46:24.680
Alright, uh, I'm against a lot of defense right now,

03:46:24.680 --> 03:46:27.880
so he gets full and a voice being demoed after this particular one of the boosts.

03:46:27.880 --> 03:46:31.880
I saw Paul, Mohammed against Travi, who's the fast one?

03:46:31.880 --> 03:46:33.880
Here's Mohammed, how's he going to reset?

03:46:33.880 --> 03:46:35.880
No, it just gets away from him.

03:46:35.880 --> 03:46:37.880
Still, all right.

03:46:37.880 --> 03:46:40.880
Starting to get chance after chance, another tip.

03:46:42.880 --> 03:46:44.880
If they can't capitalize on this,

03:46:44.880 --> 03:46:46.880
I think that might be the wind out of their sails.

03:46:46.880 --> 03:46:48.880
They're going to have to figure something out.

03:46:48.880 --> 03:46:50.880
Maybe a fake shot or a changeup.

03:46:50.880 --> 03:46:53.880
Because when you've got players diving in on low boost,

03:46:53.880 --> 03:46:55.880
that's what you want, is the off-speed shot,

03:46:55.880 --> 03:47:01.440
to fly by. The Deep Falkents have been flying in for these saves. Yeah, Falkents don't give

03:47:01.440 --> 03:47:07.440
up for any. It took Justin scoring top ten plays to get anything past them in the Lanna.

03:47:07.440 --> 03:47:13.940
Ah, what a storm! What does it take? They're on the verge that they still don't care. The

03:47:13.940 --> 03:47:21.280
defense is rock solid. Unreal stuff from Deep Falkents. Stacking the backboard, stacking

03:47:21.280 --> 03:47:26.320
the goal line. It doesn't matter how much move they have or though it seems, just finding

03:47:26.320 --> 03:47:28.160
ways to get stop after stop.

03:47:28.160 --> 03:47:35.160
Yes, it's impressive to get a stop. It's the way they recover from it. They stay relevant.

03:47:35.160 --> 03:47:40.280
You, I, anyone else, we get the same. Okay, we'll be back in about 30 seconds.

03:47:40.280 --> 03:47:45.280
Valken's just bland and already ready for a second stop.

03:47:45.280 --> 03:47:48.800
Jiralli on the pop, with no support, so it's going to be hit by himself.

03:47:48.800 --> 03:47:51.440
Once alone, 50, 30, four of us.

03:47:51.440 --> 03:47:53.840
Who just puts off, I think you realize he gets done for that.

03:47:53.840 --> 03:47:56.800
He's in a lot of trouble.

03:47:56.800 --> 03:47:59.040
Good speed from Jiralli again at the midfield.

03:47:59.040 --> 03:48:00.800
Mid moves picked up, he's going to go for a bump.

03:48:00.800 --> 03:48:02.480
Trying to take out the defender.

03:48:02.480 --> 03:48:04.000
You can see things awkward for Ghazi.

03:48:04.000 --> 03:48:07.200
The 50, also contesting.

03:48:07.200 --> 03:48:12.080
And there, ball down, is Jiralli with the shot.

03:48:12.080 --> 03:48:17.680
And team Falcons, they've been playing defense all game, but they get just a sliver.

03:48:17.680 --> 03:48:19.680
And they work their way through.

03:48:19.680 --> 03:48:26.080
We saw at the start of that replay, it's the exact same way they are picking our way apart.

03:48:26.080 --> 03:48:31.080
Just go air dribble, get the 50, and watch the panic.

03:48:31.080 --> 03:48:34.080
Mohamed, looks to try to drop that down.

03:48:34.080 --> 03:48:36.080
I'm still not on the way. They realize they're running out of time here.

03:48:36.080 --> 03:48:39.080
They still have not put the goal past Falcons.

03:48:39.080 --> 03:48:43.080
Matt needs to change sometimes and his drive is an argument of the floor. The floor was winning.

03:48:45.080 --> 03:48:48.080
Right now their argument with the scoreboard is pretty one-sided.

03:48:50.080 --> 03:48:54.080
Just one goal. Last game, one goal. This game for Team Falcons.

03:48:56.080 --> 03:49:04.080
I hope so, yes. Yeah, R8, they've done enough to at least earn one. However, we did see a team buff there.

03:49:04.080 --> 03:49:09.080
He has that again on the goal line by Drolley who has plenty of boost and gets to beat there.

03:49:09.080 --> 03:49:12.080
Zilla, we're gonna try and fight away.

03:49:12.080 --> 03:49:14.080
Out, lovely fage.

03:49:14.080 --> 03:49:17.080
Getting some success with that. How much further can they go?

03:49:17.080 --> 03:49:19.080
Oh my goodness, it was off target!

03:49:19.080 --> 03:49:22.080
The last one's gonna make sure of it anyway. 20 seconds.

03:49:24.080 --> 03:49:27.080
Off the bounce. Look at that Reef from Drolley.

03:49:27.080 --> 03:49:28.080
That'd be enough up.

03:49:28.080 --> 03:49:29.080
Double.

03:49:29.080 --> 03:49:30.080
And it's...

03:49:30.080 --> 03:49:32.080
Reef from Killers!

03:49:32.080 --> 03:49:37.080
That's just brutal, R.A. sent everything, but try too fast.

03:49:37.080 --> 03:49:41.080
Manabit's got zero in the tank, they've got zero on the board.

03:49:42.080 --> 03:49:46.080
And they are out of time here to really do anything about a two-go lead,

03:49:46.080 --> 03:49:49.080
unless they have got something unbelievable off the kickoff.

03:49:49.080 --> 03:49:51.080
And you see Falcons have actually covered that.

03:49:51.080 --> 03:49:54.080
No ballboard cheating, we don't want to remove an open defense,

03:49:54.080 --> 03:49:56.080
there's just double grab boost.

03:49:57.080 --> 03:49:59.080
Team Falcons, defense.

03:49:59.080 --> 03:50:02.540
They're showing you how hard they are to beat.

03:50:02.540 --> 03:50:08.460
I mean you had so many quality chances for RA, they landed bumps, opened up some shooting

03:50:08.460 --> 03:50:15.660
lanes, but it always seems like someone is there, even if it's 0 boost someone is there

03:50:15.660 --> 03:50:19.300
and they're fully committing, like they are fully committing to this line, you've got

03:50:19.300 --> 03:50:23.380
no boost, you've got to maintain your speed as best as possible, your trajectory is

03:50:23.380 --> 03:50:28.180
predictable if your opponents are watching you, but Team Falcons, they're

03:50:28.180 --> 03:50:34.260
swarming and R8 has not been able to find an answer to this goal line defense from Team Falcons.

03:50:34.260 --> 03:50:41.380
I mean we usually see, you know, whenever we've got zero goals across 10 minutes of Rocket League.

03:50:41.380 --> 03:50:46.100
Okay, cool, go look and go, we're gonna have two shots. They're not just only taking two shots,

03:50:46.100 --> 03:50:50.420
all right, I have a good quality chance is they're creating possession. You said they

03:50:50.420 --> 03:50:57.420
probably had more opportunities throughout that game. It doesn't matter. They still can't get the ball across the line.

03:50:57.420 --> 03:51:03.420
And then on the flip side, you've got team Falcons who, you're given an inch, they take a mile.

03:51:03.420 --> 03:51:08.420
That's horrible, but imagine being a goal down against this team. You know you've got to go,

03:51:08.420 --> 03:51:12.420
but you also know, oh, if I just lose this at all, this is in my net.

03:51:12.420 --> 03:51:16.420
And they're already a little bit hesitant, as you saw in those first game, Shogun,

03:51:16.420 --> 03:51:19.460
The positioning far back in if you were a little bit too far back

03:51:19.460 --> 03:51:24.760
You got draw Lee who will turn on anything and he's so fast and we saw that happen on that second goal for killers

03:51:24.760 --> 03:51:30.660
He cuts beats by two car links the the challenging player and then boom double tap in your neck

03:51:30.660 --> 03:51:33.740
Dr. Lee is too ill to second-guess anything he's doing today

03:51:34.020 --> 03:51:40.260
It might be a great flow state. He's just seeing the ball going for it. You guys can figure out around me

03:51:41.020 --> 03:51:43.020
The timeout is good

03:51:43.020 --> 03:51:45.820
Yeah, Charlie, that was a great freeze frame there.

03:51:45.820 --> 03:51:47.980
I'm actually usually Charlie's getting in at the moment.

03:51:47.980 --> 03:51:49.420
I have no idea.

03:51:49.420 --> 03:51:50.660
He's playing fantastic.

03:51:50.660 --> 03:51:54.860
He played so well earlier on as well, especially for esports.

03:51:54.860 --> 03:51:57.540
He looked so good in Game 1 against Falcons.

03:51:57.540 --> 03:52:00.940
Falcons really had nothing for them for a good six minutes of that.

03:52:00.940 --> 03:52:02.620
And then, Charlie dribble.

03:52:02.620 --> 03:52:07.020
Okay, yeah, we're just going to take this team all the way through.

03:52:07.020 --> 03:52:10.380
That's why they got them over here, because Falcons have won events.

03:52:10.380 --> 03:52:11.500
They've been to a lot of finals.

03:52:11.500 --> 03:52:13.060
They went to a Worlds finals.

03:52:13.060 --> 03:52:14.660
They need a winner.

03:52:14.660 --> 03:52:18.460
I mean, and they got second in that Worlds.

03:52:18.460 --> 03:52:20.260
They made it to the finals, came up short.

03:52:20.260 --> 03:52:22.460
They brought in Drolley for one reason,

03:52:22.460 --> 03:52:24.620
and it's to get over that hurdle.

03:52:24.620 --> 03:52:26.820
It is to get those wins.

03:52:26.820 --> 03:52:30.500
And, you know, this is the stage that has been set.

03:52:30.500 --> 03:52:33.700
This is the stage where everyone who's a Team Falcon's fan

03:52:33.700 --> 03:52:37.060
is looking at Drolley to see if he will be able to deliver.

03:52:37.060 --> 03:52:40.660
It's ridiculous how quickly narratives can change.

03:52:40.660 --> 03:52:47.020
Two months ago, this would have gone down by a lot of people that I saw online saying this was the worst changes ever.

03:52:47.020 --> 03:52:50.060
It's not that anymore, but Mohamed's got one.

03:52:50.060 --> 03:52:53.660
So the perfect swing's off the ball. Let's worry about the first one now.

03:52:53.660 --> 03:53:00.940
Well, it's what the other works. It only had 10 minutes where R8 is not able to score 10 seconds in to game three.

03:53:00.940 --> 03:53:03.780
They get one. You saw the trail of that ball was orange.

03:53:03.780 --> 03:53:07.460
The challenge was going to ride there four team Falcons.

03:53:07.460 --> 03:53:09.460
A good punish there for Mohamed.

03:53:09.460 --> 03:53:15.460
And a little bit of weight off their shoulders now that they can at least avoid the perfect sweep.

03:53:15.460 --> 03:53:19.460
The more likely the thing ever is R.A.S. scoring six goals.

03:53:19.460 --> 03:53:22.460
He seems to walk that way.

03:53:22.460 --> 03:53:28.460
More demos, they've been connecting on those demos all day long and the possession's been there.

03:53:28.460 --> 03:53:30.460
So maybe this could be a turning point for R.A.

03:53:30.460 --> 03:53:32.460
Yep, well that was very purposeful.

03:53:32.460 --> 03:53:35.460
What's the fuck out of Garza? You passed the bomb on it.

03:53:35.460 --> 03:53:38.460
Some skinny straights, the pump of Charlie Garza, he's like that bomb.

03:53:38.460 --> 03:53:42.460
Yeah, I know you're going to hit me, I'm going to hit you first.

03:53:44.460 --> 03:53:49.460
Wait, Russ, over there. He's only got the chance. He looks for the hookshot and he hits the crossbar.

03:53:49.460 --> 03:53:51.460
That was tough, the ball was bouncing on it.

03:53:51.460 --> 03:53:57.460
Knew he had to place it just a bit high on the shot.

03:53:57.460 --> 03:54:04.960
But that is one opportunity that if somehow T5 can lose this one, right look back to that chance and think maybe it could have gone differently

03:54:04.960 --> 03:54:09.300
I'm just saying that, well, we've got a kind of map position, the hookshot, oh that's it every single time

03:54:11.220 --> 03:54:14.260
Gela's low boost, Scythe's not worth trying to follow that

03:54:15.220 --> 03:54:19.220
Gali wants to try and go coast to coast, but he has to go west up there in supports

03:54:19.220 --> 03:54:21.220
Definitely required after that 50

03:54:22.580 --> 03:54:24.580
You see

03:54:27.460 --> 03:54:34.840
So he, Rwass, he's going for a ground pitch, disguises it, delays it, and it completely

03:54:34.840 --> 03:54:39.140
surprises Gazi because alongside you see the ground pitch players try to use the

03:54:39.140 --> 03:54:43.220
nose of their car down into the ground but Rwass, maybe they were thinking he was

03:54:43.220 --> 03:54:48.100
gonna go for a 50 on that, so you saw the big challenge but no he was going for a pitch.

03:54:48.100 --> 03:54:51.300
And I thought I was made a big mistake there and these guys, he's trying to get rid of it.

03:54:51.300 --> 03:54:57.260
Yeah, like for a watch scored earlier on trying to set up that 15 well already just scared of it

03:54:57.820 --> 03:55:02.860
I'm way from us without that son of five over 50 me. I'll take a 50 against the ground yourself

03:55:06.860 --> 03:55:09.620
Wow, that was not a goal you see every day

03:55:13.740 --> 03:55:15.740
A bit of time twice

03:55:15.740 --> 03:55:19.740
Now he's gonna in and out on his opponent's net as it does on his way.

03:55:19.740 --> 03:55:21.740
Good 15 out by Trutronin!

03:55:21.740 --> 03:55:23.740
Mohamed on the phone!

03:55:23.740 --> 03:55:24.740
Mohamed!

03:55:24.740 --> 03:55:27.740
Only goal scorer so far for R8.

03:55:27.740 --> 03:55:30.740
Young Kuwaiti.

03:55:30.740 --> 03:55:32.740
Nicely time flipped there.

03:55:32.740 --> 03:55:34.740
That one is gonna get secured.

03:55:34.740 --> 03:55:36.740
And R8 back on top.

03:55:36.740 --> 03:55:38.740
We've not seen nearly enough of that Mare.

03:55:38.740 --> 03:55:41.740
They've had good wins on those plays.

03:55:41.740 --> 03:55:44.740
There's never somebody to follow it.

03:55:44.740 --> 03:55:50.740
And if you two down in a series like this, suddenly you'll start doing things that you don't usually do.

03:55:50.740 --> 03:55:53.740
Killers must unlock now. Dullo takes the 50 early.

03:55:53.740 --> 03:55:55.740
Really? Is that 100 ping out the window?

03:55:55.740 --> 03:55:59.740
Does he want to try and go by himself? Is anyone going to be able to stop him here?

03:55:59.740 --> 03:56:00.740
Here comes Killers.

03:56:00.740 --> 03:56:03.740
Alright, Dullo. Great recovery from him. Just drops three down.

03:56:03.740 --> 03:56:05.740
Right in front of a challenge.

03:56:06.740 --> 03:56:07.740
I'm on it. I'm trying to...

03:56:07.740 --> 03:56:10.740
Whoa! It's up giving the ball away!

03:56:10.740 --> 03:56:17.740
Well, the big side was there and he said I'm passing to Abdullah.

03:56:17.740 --> 03:56:22.740
And you saw there was no chance Abdullah was going to get there.

03:56:22.740 --> 03:56:24.740
No, absolutely not.

03:56:24.740 --> 03:56:28.740
That's very much just going off muscle memory.

03:56:28.740 --> 03:56:32.740
You know you want to pass there but just did not spot the danger.

03:56:32.740 --> 03:56:36.740
And R8 have been their own worst enemies at times.

03:56:36.740 --> 03:56:41.740
And it's got a lot of players trying to deal with it.

03:56:41.740 --> 03:56:43.740
I don't think that's the worst outcome there, Barak,

03:56:43.740 --> 03:56:45.740
because it's not really much you're creating in the initial position.

03:56:45.740 --> 03:56:49.740
Good demo! Good ball! What a goal!

03:56:49.740 --> 03:56:52.740
And that's a hard trick from Mohamed.

03:56:52.740 --> 03:56:57.740
The demos have been connecting all series long.

03:56:57.740 --> 03:57:02.740
This time it finally results in a goal here for R8.

03:57:02.740 --> 03:57:06.740
And you know what? You have to give respect to R8.

03:57:06.740 --> 03:57:08.740
T Falcons keep leveling the score.

03:57:08.740 --> 03:57:10.740
R8 keep getting back in the lead.

03:57:10.740 --> 03:57:13.740
Yes, gonna be one of those frustrating ones if R8 do lose this,

03:57:13.740 --> 03:57:14.740
because they'll think,

03:57:14.740 --> 03:57:16.740
R8, we figured it out, because we figured out two lanes.

03:57:17.740 --> 03:57:18.740
Oh, that's popped up.

03:57:18.740 --> 03:57:19.740
I thought it was gonna get something good here.

03:57:19.740 --> 03:57:20.740
Straight up.

03:57:20.740 --> 03:57:22.740
But, Jolly, no on there!

03:57:22.740 --> 03:57:23.740
R8 run!

03:57:23.740 --> 03:57:26.740
And T Falcons will not let them escape.

03:57:26.740 --> 03:57:28.740
Jolly had to take a very quick shot here.

03:57:28.740 --> 03:57:30.740
Saw the Hobbit on the backboard.

03:57:30.740 --> 03:57:39.740
We need to keep it low as well, but you see Mohamed also backflipping well placed, well executed shot from Drolley.

03:57:39.740 --> 03:57:45.740
And team Falcons are making this so difficult, but we do see a kickoff strategy come up from Maury.

03:57:45.740 --> 03:57:50.740
He's already got three goals. He's going to need a four. He's going to need somebody to put something in.

03:57:50.740 --> 03:57:57.740
Minute 14. Falcons just waiting. They do not dive in, but anything other than something no they can win.

03:57:57.740 --> 03:58:00.920
win ceiling doesn't matter what's already there guys he looks for the side

03:58:00.920 --> 03:58:04.860
skin you're going to speak to those a defender that really messes with positioning

03:58:04.860 --> 03:58:12.460
as Abdullah who's there they tried for it but not quite zero boost for everyone

03:58:12.460 --> 03:58:17.020
on team falcons they got nothing moving two killers every spot off the

03:58:17.020 --> 03:58:23.500
demo somehow team falcons don't concede all right breathing down team

03:58:23.500 --> 03:58:32.500
Gazi again looks for the skim, a bit better this time but no real power and it tries taking forever to get back to his side of the field.

03:58:32.500 --> 03:58:38.500
I've got the double, faked out, kill us on the way, leaves it for Tirani, Gazi should be fine.

03:58:38.500 --> 03:58:45.500
But they're just pushing it straight back into Falcons here. Now it's outfield for us. Straight over to Gazi.

03:58:45.500 --> 03:58:47.500
I'm not gonna try to get one.

03:58:47.500 --> 03:58:49.500
I'll not play the knots.

03:58:49.500 --> 03:58:51.500
And Strolley's got quite a bit of time to work with.

03:58:51.500 --> 03:58:53.500
Straight to Abdullah.

03:58:53.500 --> 03:58:54.500
Yes.

03:58:54.500 --> 03:58:56.500
He's not just passing it between each other right there.

03:58:56.500 --> 03:58:58.500
It's worked out just fine.

03:58:58.500 --> 03:59:00.500
It's on time and it's in!

03:59:00.500 --> 03:59:01.500
Oh man!

03:59:01.500 --> 03:59:03.500
Strolley was trying to rotate back

03:59:03.500 --> 03:59:05.500
with the boom ball back and forth.

03:59:05.500 --> 03:59:07.500
Final results and the golfer R8 killer

03:59:07.500 --> 03:59:10.500
is getting dunked on by Ghazi.

03:59:10.500 --> 03:59:13.500
And now it's huge.

03:59:13.500 --> 03:59:15.500
Use that dunk!

03:59:15.500 --> 03:59:18.000
In a key moment, got to do more.

03:59:18.000 --> 03:59:21.500
I think your killers stay behind that ball anywhere,

03:59:21.500 --> 03:59:25.000
but towards your own net on that one.

03:59:25.000 --> 03:59:26.500
In RA, hold on.

03:59:26.500 --> 03:59:29.500
Surely the fourth time of having a lead

03:59:29.500 --> 03:59:31.500
is the time they can keep it.

03:59:31.500 --> 03:59:33.000
Killers goes long.

03:59:33.000 --> 03:59:35.000
Abdullah wants the catch.

03:59:35.000 --> 03:59:36.500
It just has to be a 50 afterwards.

03:59:36.500 --> 03:59:39.500
Realize it pretty quick that he pulled that one down.

03:59:39.500 --> 03:59:42.500
All the infield grew us 30 up, and so was the defender.

03:59:42.500 --> 03:59:44.740
This is a game of pre-jumps right now.

03:59:44.740 --> 03:59:46.080
Who can get there earlier?

03:59:46.080 --> 03:59:49.780
Killers played around 400 boosts all the way back to their side of the field.

03:59:49.780 --> 03:59:52.420
What will be their last floor in this?

03:59:52.420 --> 03:59:55.080
Jiralli to the corner, once in that field.

03:59:55.080 --> 04:00:00.020
Silver was, who needs it to drop the killers who can't get there in time.

04:00:00.020 --> 04:00:05.620
It was the right play call at 0 seconds, but the player just not there in time.

04:00:05.620 --> 04:00:12.020
Thing was Killers trying to come in for the shot, just a step too slow, couldn't get there.

04:00:12.020 --> 04:00:17.700
And all right pick up their first game winning man. It was a battle the back and forth on this one

04:00:18.260 --> 04:00:20.260
Muhammad scoring a hat trick

04:00:21.140 --> 04:00:25.620
The demos connecting they finally break through this team Hopkins defense

04:00:25.620 --> 04:00:30.420
And now you have to worry a little bit shall get if you're team talking because even in the first two games

04:00:30.420 --> 04:00:35.940
All right had a decent amount of possession that decent amount of opportunities this time. They've been able to

04:00:36.180 --> 04:00:40.300
To overcome a pretty challenging game with you know

04:00:40.300 --> 04:00:45.300
Making some mistakes, passing the ball away, giving up some easy ones, but they still battle back.

04:00:45.300 --> 04:00:46.800
Time and time again to get this win.

04:00:46.800 --> 04:00:50.300
I mean the big difference is that they want having to chase this game.

04:00:50.300 --> 04:00:55.300
The moment you give up a goal and you're a one-goal down against Falcons, it's a completely different ball game.

04:00:55.300 --> 04:01:00.300
Just they sit on that lead, they know you've got to try fresh forwards, they know the opportunity is going to come.

04:01:00.300 --> 04:01:04.800
But this time around, we've got to see a more open game of Rocket League.

04:01:04.800 --> 04:01:09.300
And if there's anything that meaner Rocket League does well, it's an open game.

04:01:09.300 --> 04:01:11.300
We're going for the 50s, we're going for the out plays.

04:01:11.300 --> 04:01:15.140
That was a very entertaining game overall.

04:01:15.140 --> 04:01:17.260
However, I don't know how much we're starting this like,

04:01:17.260 --> 04:01:19.540
okay guys, can I not have scored a hat-trick

04:01:19.540 --> 04:01:21.140
for every single game here?

04:01:21.140 --> 04:01:23.820
Maybe we can just keep a lead?

04:01:23.820 --> 04:01:25.260
That would be great.

04:01:25.260 --> 04:01:27.340
And the other thing is, is I wonder if RA

04:01:27.340 --> 04:01:29.300
will continue to have as much success

04:01:29.300 --> 04:01:31.980
as they had on the demos.

04:01:31.980 --> 04:01:34.060
Team thought it's tough team to pin down.

04:01:34.060 --> 04:01:36.340
It does feel like they like start every game

04:01:36.340 --> 04:01:42.500
on them and then they forget of either reminder on occasion as we do ourselves into game number

04:01:42.500 --> 04:01:50.340
four maybe champions field is awaiting maybe and then just in case it's all down to all right

04:01:50.340 --> 04:01:55.300
in the moment lovely thought they needed that the perfect well the way that is on way up for

04:01:55.300 --> 04:02:01.220
Roulas Roulas not only has to get that save but he's having the dock of a player barreling in

04:02:01.220 --> 04:02:08.220
try to target it. Very big save early by Rwaz.

04:02:08.220 --> 04:02:12.220
See Rwaz on that and just say, oh here we go, it's my back corner.

04:02:12.220 --> 04:02:15.220
Oh, I'll try again later. This one's clearly not happening as

04:02:15.220 --> 04:02:18.220
he was going to say he called that as a back pass.

04:02:18.220 --> 04:02:22.220
That's risky as that one was. Nice outplay there.

04:02:22.220 --> 04:02:26.220
Alright, great job here at the transition game.

04:02:26.220 --> 04:02:29.220
Getting the ball out there so it's out of the field.

04:02:29.220 --> 04:02:30.220
Damn it.

04:02:30.220 --> 04:02:31.220
Let's push.

04:02:31.220 --> 04:02:32.220
Your killers gets ripped.

04:02:32.220 --> 04:02:35.220
The last not fast enough power since you get set up.

04:02:35.220 --> 04:02:36.220
Ground pinch attempt in two place.

04:02:36.220 --> 04:02:37.220
Went down.

04:02:37.220 --> 04:02:40.220
So now you're going to try and scramble back killers on the ball against Mahabit.

04:02:40.220 --> 04:02:41.220
He's the last one back hit.

04:02:41.220 --> 04:02:43.220
I think killers just took that little bit too quickly.

04:02:43.220 --> 04:02:47.220
What they did, managed to see us a boost on the way.

04:02:47.220 --> 04:02:52.220
This is a good position for Team Falcons to be in.

04:02:52.220 --> 04:02:54.220
Still on the attack killers.

04:02:54.220 --> 04:02:55.220
Trying to go towards net.

04:02:55.220 --> 04:02:56.220
There's the shot.

04:02:56.220 --> 04:02:57.220
It's high up the back.

04:02:57.220 --> 04:03:01.860
double commit again. You can see R8 not feeling comfortable right now.

04:03:01.860 --> 04:03:07.200
The R8 work absolutely sucks. Somebody was following him. Nine times out of ten, they

04:03:07.200 --> 04:03:11.740
probably be right, Bahamut. Needs to catch what he does! What a start!

04:03:11.740 --> 04:03:16.940
Oh, Bahamut scoring. Hatricks last game making massive saves this game.

04:03:16.940 --> 04:03:21.020
Dusk is demoed, this attack is still going for Team Falcons.

04:03:21.020 --> 04:03:24.780
And how do you get out? They're gonna need a 50. They're gonna need something because

04:03:24.780 --> 04:03:28.240
That boost is not around straight back into the path of Falcons.

04:03:28.240 --> 04:03:30.440
Wave after wave of offense.

04:03:30.440 --> 04:03:32.940
It has been two minutes of it.

04:03:32.940 --> 04:03:34.940
Still, R8 are holding on.

04:03:34.940 --> 04:03:36.940
He's just getting, there's going to be a matter of time.

04:03:36.940 --> 04:03:38.440
Here's R, Rwass.

04:03:38.440 --> 04:03:40.440
Now, Gazi, up to the slow boost.

04:03:40.440 --> 04:03:43.440
Stressed a leader for a teammate, but I think R8 will take this.

04:03:43.440 --> 04:03:45.440
Just a moment to breathe.

04:03:46.940 --> 04:03:48.940
Now, good 50 up the ceiling as well.

04:03:48.940 --> 04:03:50.940
Rwass has to boot it down field.

04:03:50.940 --> 04:03:53.440
And you can see everyone boosted up from R8.

04:03:53.440 --> 04:03:56.640
They survived that onslaught from Team Falcons.

04:03:57.640 --> 04:03:59.040
Let's try and get block.

04:03:59.040 --> 04:04:01.040
That's free for everybody.

04:04:01.040 --> 04:04:04.040
Guys, he just didn't get the call that he was going to try and hit it a second time.

04:04:06.440 --> 04:04:07.440
Nice play.

04:04:07.440 --> 04:04:08.840
Alex got options.

04:04:08.840 --> 04:04:11.040
Oh, that's all good for every bomber.

04:04:11.040 --> 04:04:12.240
Charlie, great read.

04:04:12.240 --> 04:04:13.240
Got there early.

04:04:13.240 --> 04:04:15.040
And then he goes for the follow.

04:04:15.840 --> 04:04:17.840
So annoying if you're RA.

04:04:18.640 --> 04:04:21.240
Trying to deal with that as Abdullah's looking for the outplay.

04:04:21.240 --> 04:04:23.920
He's called for a loss he's dead to deal with.

04:04:24.760 --> 04:04:26.960
Now that was really well done from Drolley.

04:04:28.520 --> 04:04:31.200
Impact plays on low boost, gets them at boost as well.

04:04:31.200 --> 04:04:34.800
They're gonna try to find their way out of their own half right now.

04:04:35.400 --> 04:04:36.720
Plenty of boost on Bahamut.

04:04:36.720 --> 04:04:38.160
Gonna let this roll up the wall.

04:04:39.240 --> 04:04:41.240
Bahamut's been so good on the attack.

04:04:42.040 --> 04:04:45.240
It's a piece of that one as well, but Drolley still stand with the ball.

04:04:46.520 --> 04:04:47.160
R8.

04:04:47.480 --> 04:04:49.080
Alright, to get some space.

04:04:49.080 --> 04:04:54.080
That one almost got a boost around here, can't really do anything with that.

04:04:54.080 --> 04:04:59.080
100 seconds left on the clock, zero goal scored across both teams.

04:04:59.080 --> 04:05:02.080
Back board, oh what a touch man, don't realize it now.

04:05:02.080 --> 04:05:05.080
That might be open, God damn.

04:05:05.080 --> 04:05:07.080
Kazi just did not need that touch.

04:05:07.080 --> 04:05:11.080
Would have been a much better position for Mohamed, another whiff, that's rare.

04:05:11.080 --> 04:05:13.080
This is what it was for a while.

04:05:13.080 --> 04:05:18.520
And for the edge of a bump, the side-back just touched you late.

04:05:18.520 --> 04:05:21.720
Over a minute left now, still no goals.

04:05:21.720 --> 04:05:26.760
Lots of bumps attempt, as that's going to drop nicely, but

04:05:26.760 --> 04:05:29.480
Alas didn't have to boost to do anything with it.

04:05:29.480 --> 04:05:31.720
Trying to go up high, Bahamut wants the cross.

04:05:31.720 --> 04:05:33.560
He's almost got them, but Alas stick around.

04:05:33.560 --> 04:05:35.640
Here's to the back, Alas, you lost twice.

04:05:35.640 --> 04:05:38.520
Alas get another touch on that ball.

04:05:38.520 --> 04:05:41.960
Alas stepping up on defense,

04:05:41.960 --> 04:05:50.200
once more for Team Falcons. If we are still scorelets in this final minute. Back down.

04:05:50.200 --> 04:05:55.720
I'm done. A couple of dashes over on the wall. He's made his way through. Can't get the bump.

04:05:57.800 --> 04:06:02.280
Roas. All he looks for the low 50 yet again. That wasn't quite work.

04:06:03.000 --> 04:06:06.280
Alright, they've got somebody trying to harass Killers back there who does a state.

04:06:08.280 --> 04:06:11.080
Now Killers, the other thing he's talking about that. This thing is going to go for the

04:06:11.080 --> 04:06:14.040
the center, but how many need some help here with that amount of boost? Oh, he doesn't need

04:06:14.040 --> 04:06:15.120
to be spying.

04:06:15.120 --> 04:06:21.120
How did that look? No one. We caught. Just there in time. Falcons looking at them all threatening,

04:06:21.120 --> 04:06:23.120
but now they have gone for defense.

04:06:23.120 --> 04:06:28.120
He's off of Dullwood. He jumped from a reverse position. Now, Trolley, light shot towards

04:06:28.120 --> 04:06:33.120
net. He's trying to break up the defense. Last second opportunity here for Team Falcons.

04:06:33.120 --> 04:06:40.920
It's kept alive. Trolley going towards goal. It'll hit the ground. A zero

04:06:40.920 --> 04:06:46.600
0 overtime a chance for team Falcons to qualify for the main event.

04:06:46.600 --> 04:06:51.800
Rwas takes the shot as the number was out to the boost instead.

04:06:53.800 --> 04:06:58.760
Very heavy touch there from Mahmed. Rwas got such a great ability I think him and

04:06:58.760 --> 04:07:02.200
Draleigh have done the best job of like always following their own touches.

04:07:03.320 --> 04:07:04.520
As that's on the backboard.

04:07:05.720 --> 04:07:08.520
Yeah all right cool Draleigh you just go and do that all right.

04:07:08.520 --> 04:07:09.520
Right.

04:07:09.520 --> 04:07:10.520
Time to clear away.

04:07:10.520 --> 04:07:11.520
Mohamed in the corner.

04:07:11.520 --> 04:07:13.520
What can he create in this position?

04:07:13.520 --> 04:07:14.520
Come on, I think he was expecting.

04:07:14.520 --> 04:07:16.520
This is a big opportunity.

04:07:16.520 --> 04:07:18.520
Well, Drani's still there.

04:07:18.520 --> 04:07:20.520
He's stolen as well.

04:07:20.520 --> 04:07:22.520
This is looking grim for Team Falcons.

04:07:22.520 --> 04:07:25.520
Killers using up all his boost for that touch,

04:07:25.520 --> 04:07:28.520
but it's still being pressed towards net.

04:07:28.520 --> 04:07:30.520
He wants to leave it, but...

04:07:30.520 --> 04:07:31.520
All right, decides to set up again.

04:07:31.520 --> 04:07:33.520
Killers is looking for Killers in the backside of the field.

04:07:33.520 --> 04:07:34.520
Hey, I've got it!

04:07:34.520 --> 04:07:35.520
Killers again!

04:07:35.520 --> 04:07:37.520
2v1, what does he care?

04:07:37.520 --> 04:07:44.520
The Zero Boost dies and come through clutch for Team Falcons so many times.

04:07:44.520 --> 04:07:46.520
Exercise, Bump.

04:07:46.520 --> 04:07:48.520
Muhammad almost bounces the ball. Good demo.

04:07:48.520 --> 04:07:50.520
The loss is out. Kill us.

04:07:50.520 --> 04:07:52.520
Dump it again!

04:07:52.520 --> 04:07:57.520
Welcome to the main event, Team Falcons.

04:07:57.520 --> 04:08:00.520
They get past their regional rivals once more.

04:08:00.520 --> 04:08:08.320
more R8 an inspiring comeback attempt by team Falcons powered through and I think

04:08:08.320 --> 04:08:14.880
for me the theme of that series for team Falcons was defense yeah all the games

04:08:14.880 --> 04:08:19.720
they won their defense world it was remarkable the amount of safe that

04:08:19.720 --> 04:08:26.840
they were making on zero boost so three to one all right we'll be looking at

04:08:26.840 --> 04:08:34.600
seriously just going well we've got we figured this out just far too late they gave up those first two games with good opportunities

04:08:35.560 --> 04:08:40.200
But the team we saw for the first 10 minutes and the team we saw for the last I want to say 12

04:08:40.520 --> 04:08:47.320
We're very very different squad are a key to lock in on what they had in the latter of that from the rest of this

04:08:47.320 --> 04:08:49.680
Time because they're not out. They've got that low bracket

04:08:50.240 --> 04:08:54.880
But it's not the result they're after two thousand so the QWC champions do much on

04:08:54.880 --> 04:09:01.140
They certainly do, they qualify for the main event. R8 will be moving down to play Vigojus

04:09:01.140 --> 04:09:07.020
for a spot in the main event and after this series, I mean I would put R8 as the favorite.

04:09:07.020 --> 04:09:12.300
They very easily could have won this series against Team 9 on the second best team in

04:09:12.300 --> 04:09:18.220
this play. But we have got ourselves our first team from over here. Falcons are moving

04:09:18.220 --> 04:09:22.900
on. Let's go and speak to them.

04:09:22.900 --> 04:09:28.500
The Falcons have made it through, and I'm here with my best friend again, one more time

04:09:28.500 --> 04:09:31.100
and you guys can finally get away from me.

04:09:31.100 --> 04:09:36.100
I have to ask him that, it was obviously a tough ending to it, and we did find out, you

04:09:36.100 --> 04:09:37.540
know, Drolley's a little under the weather.

04:09:37.540 --> 04:09:43.100
Do you have to adjust the other two's playstyle maybe to compensate for a player that might

04:09:43.100 --> 04:09:44.100
not be feeling as well?

04:09:44.100 --> 04:09:46.420
We'll just stick to our basics.

04:09:46.420 --> 04:09:51.100
With time, he will get the momentum and he will be able to.

04:09:51.100 --> 04:09:53.540
Do you just tell him, just get through it.

04:09:53.540 --> 04:09:56.460
Yeah, he just play normally and...

04:09:56.460 --> 04:09:59.660
What a beast, that takes a lot of energy to do, very hard.

04:09:59.660 --> 04:10:04.220
Now, looking at the fact you guys have just qualified, congratulations.

04:10:04.220 --> 04:10:06.060
Is there a weight that comes off of you?

04:10:06.060 --> 04:10:11.540
I was talking to Two Piece earlier and he said it felt so good to just make groups.

04:10:11.540 --> 04:10:12.540
Same for you?

04:10:12.540 --> 04:10:13.540
Yeah, same for us.

04:10:13.540 --> 04:10:15.340
This is what we came for.

04:10:15.340 --> 04:10:17.100
We came for the World Championship.

04:10:17.100 --> 04:10:22.980
The Blins, it's disappointing for us to be in this position, but after we finished this

04:10:22.980 --> 04:10:27.380
phase, now we are ready to go.

04:10:27.380 --> 04:10:31.260
And just one last word before we go, talk about your opponents R8, obviously gave you

04:10:31.260 --> 04:10:32.940
some trouble at the end there.

04:10:32.940 --> 04:10:35.020
Talk to me about your opponents because they look good too.

04:10:35.020 --> 04:10:36.980
Yeah, they play really insane.

04:10:36.980 --> 04:10:39.660
I hope they do well in the level bracket.

04:10:39.660 --> 04:10:42.820
They are an insane team.

04:10:42.820 --> 04:10:45.140
Hopefully they get through with us.

04:10:45.140 --> 04:10:46.140
Exactly.

04:10:46.140 --> 04:10:46.980
You made it through.

04:10:46.980 --> 04:10:47.780
That's all that matters.

04:10:47.780 --> 04:10:48.620
Congratulations.

04:10:48.620 --> 04:10:49.120
Thank you.

04:10:49.120 --> 04:10:50.540
Go celebrate with the team.

04:10:50.540 --> 04:10:51.740
We're going to head it off here, though,

04:10:51.740 --> 04:10:53.620
because we've got two more to go.

04:10:53.620 --> 04:10:55.260
We're almost done for day number one here

04:10:55.260 --> 04:10:56.860
at the Rocket League World Championships.

04:10:56.860 --> 04:10:58.140
I hope you're having fun.

04:10:58.140 --> 04:10:59.540
We'll see you in just a few.

04:10:59.540 --> 04:11:00.540
Thank you.

04:11:00.540 --> 04:11:01.540
Good stuff.

04:11:01.540 --> 04:11:02.540
See you next year.

04:11:02.540 --> 04:11:07.540
Change, change, won't you please stand?

04:11:08.540 --> 04:11:11.540
Now that your gaze is more on the ground.

04:11:22.540 --> 04:11:24.540
Okay, the plumber is fixing that burst pipe.

04:11:24.540 --> 04:11:25.540
It should be all set.

04:11:25.540 --> 04:11:28.540
Good thing you protected 24-7 with your home and auto bundle from Progressive.

04:11:28.540 --> 04:11:31.540
Oh, I'm sorry. I'm just trying to figure out the right caption to post about these.

04:11:31.540 --> 04:11:32.800
post about this.

04:11:32.800 --> 04:11:34.600
Maybe something like, I have protection,

04:11:34.600 --> 04:11:35.500
just need a lifeguard.

04:11:35.500 --> 04:11:37.700
What about that emergency with a shocked face?

04:11:37.700 --> 04:11:39.740
Or maybe flooded with emotion.

04:11:39.740 --> 04:11:40.620
That's too much.

04:11:40.620 --> 04:11:42.740
Try, uh, Tuesdays are crazy.

04:11:42.740 --> 04:11:44.820
You know, technically, you don't have to post everything

04:11:44.820 --> 04:11:45.820
that happens online.

04:11:45.820 --> 04:11:49.620
I totally believe you.

04:11:49.620 --> 04:11:52.620
Life is meaningless without affirmation, am I right?

04:13:22.620 --> 04:13:44.620
Welcome to the end of the fight.

04:14:14.620 --> 04:14:41.620
Welcome to the end of the fight.

04:21:11.620 --> 04:21:40.320
It was close until it wasn't, over time on Utopia you're going to get sealed by a fantastic

04:21:40.320 --> 04:21:43.760
shop and killers and the Falcons are through to the group stage.

04:21:43.760 --> 04:21:46.080
20-26, Rocket League World Series.

04:21:46.080 --> 04:21:48.920
And 12 teams that are in the main event are very upset right now.

04:21:48.920 --> 04:21:51.720
The Falcons have made it through, they were really open.

04:21:51.720 --> 04:21:53.080
They wouldn't have to worry about them

04:21:53.080 --> 04:21:55.720
and we'll find out what group they get later on today.

04:21:55.720 --> 04:21:56.920
It'll be exciting once we get there.

04:21:56.920 --> 04:21:58.600
We've got two more matches to get through,

04:21:58.600 --> 04:22:00.720
two more teams to send home, only one spot

04:22:00.720 --> 04:22:02.560
and two spots left, two spots left here.

04:22:02.560 --> 04:22:04.640
We'll be sending one team home and one team through

04:22:04.640 --> 04:22:06.160
with each of these matches.

04:22:06.160 --> 04:22:09.160
Yeah, and I think that it's gonna be interesting to see

04:22:09.160 --> 04:22:13.120
If Mena can end up getting another team through, if R8 can get it done,

04:22:13.120 --> 04:22:16.800
I think the fact that they lost to Falcons is unfortunately their trend.

04:22:16.800 --> 04:22:20.160
Whenever they end up facing them online, so not too surprised there.

04:22:20.160 --> 04:22:23.880
But it's going to be a tough match, I think, for Bogode to try and get it over at R8.

04:22:23.880 --> 04:22:25.440
They still look really strong.

04:22:28.960 --> 04:22:30.640
I mean, these two teams, in particular, I mean...

04:22:30.640 --> 04:22:31.640
I got to talk about it.

04:22:31.640 --> 04:22:35.280
Obviously, we've lost to them in about one, two, three, four months.

04:22:35.280 --> 04:22:38.720
It's been a long time, and they've just progressively

04:22:38.720 --> 04:22:41.360
got him better. R8 though, they didn't have a fudger's

04:22:41.360 --> 04:22:44.560
chance, they had a moment. My Alton and Kroger are just too

04:22:44.560 --> 04:22:46.800
consistent at the moment and she's thought over them.

04:22:46.800 --> 04:22:49.600
But I did like what I saw out of R8, at least the final two

04:22:49.600 --> 04:22:51.600
games. I felt like it took a little bit while to get going,

04:22:51.600 --> 04:22:54.320
but they had a lot of scoring opportunities, but Falcon's

04:22:54.320 --> 04:22:57.120
defense is top tier in the world. And they found ways in

04:22:57.120 --> 04:23:01.440
2v1 situations to get out of jail. And except for this

04:23:01.440 --> 04:23:05.360
game where the scoring is crazy, but R8 kind of finally

04:23:05.360 --> 04:23:07.760
woke up towards the end of the series, which is a good

04:23:07.760 --> 04:23:10.240
good time for them to try and make it out of this play.

04:23:10.240 --> 04:23:12.840
I mean, of course, the Falcons are off ceiling,

04:23:12.840 --> 04:23:15.240
top right corner, man, overtime to finish the series off.

04:23:15.240 --> 04:23:17.120
That shows that you're playing at a high level.

04:23:17.120 --> 04:23:19.360
10% of the time spent ahead, both of these two teams,

04:23:19.360 --> 04:23:20.800
basically deadlocked off of the demos.

04:23:20.800 --> 04:23:22.280
Ari has more of that possession.

04:23:22.280 --> 04:23:26.520
50-50, defending 50-50, 1%-1%, a very close series.

04:23:26.520 --> 04:23:28.280
It's a little margin of error, made all the difference

04:23:28.280 --> 04:23:30.920
for Falcons, and they move on, but Ari are still here.

04:23:30.920 --> 04:23:32.000
All right, Ari are still here.

04:23:32.000 --> 04:23:32.880
The Falcons are through.

04:23:32.880 --> 04:23:34.440
They can close it out for the day,

04:23:34.440 --> 04:23:37.200
but Ari will have a match in those lower bracket

04:23:37.200 --> 04:23:48.200
We've got one NA team through, one MENA team through Stumpy, we now have, it's looking like there's a really good chance we're going to get both MENA teams and both NA teams out of our playing.

04:23:48.200 --> 04:23:54.200
Yeah, there's still a chance for us to get one of each, which would be very cool. That would be very exciting.

04:23:54.200 --> 04:23:55.200
I think it's going to happen.

04:23:55.200 --> 04:24:00.200
But I think it would be cool if it did. I mean, you know, anything can happen, especially when the pressure gets on.

04:24:00.200 --> 04:24:05.200
We've heard so many players talk about how important different worlds is here, and this is one of those moments.

04:24:05.200 --> 04:24:08.480
And really quick, I just want to mention TSM, they're out of the World Championship.

04:24:08.480 --> 04:24:10.920
They were a team that was really fun to watch all year.

04:24:10.920 --> 04:24:14.400
I felt like they were so close to leveling up to that next tier,

04:24:14.400 --> 04:24:17.360
they just barely couldn't get over that hump, but they were a fun team to watch.

04:24:17.360 --> 04:24:20.640
Yeah, but I think also they've had such market improvement

04:24:20.640 --> 04:24:23.320
between every single event, most in particular,

04:24:23.320 --> 04:24:27.440
A-WC when they managed to take down NRG, an incredible achievement for that side.

04:24:27.440 --> 04:24:30.760
So, looking forward to seeing what TSM can do in the next season as well,

04:24:30.760 --> 04:24:33.440
because, like you say, they're now down for 26th.

04:24:33.440 --> 04:24:37.660
It usually is that we see the kind of one pop-off event and the next one's like oh, they didn't quite go well

04:24:37.660 --> 04:24:42.340
This is now three events in a row that they've been competitive at exciting CTSM play in the future of

04:24:42.860 --> 04:24:47.780
Now let's talk about the remaining matches on the streams if you've been enjoying the alternate stream too bad

04:24:47.780 --> 04:24:49.060
It's all over that's all done for the day

04:24:49.060 --> 04:24:53.440
We will see more of it at another time the mainstream here though two matches left to go

04:24:53.440 --> 04:24:57.340
I'm not at the top of versus foot e-sports gonna be our next match here on the mainstream here

04:24:57.340 --> 04:25:00.140
We go money top again face off against another North American team

04:25:00.140 --> 04:25:04.820
It's European depth versus North American depth which one will come out on top last time and they want it

04:25:04.820 --> 04:25:06.820
But money top has got two chances that

04:25:07.580 --> 04:25:10.300
And they have two chances, but then you had two chances because Bp

04:25:10.300 --> 04:25:12.140
They lost too many WC they couldn't get the job done

04:25:12.140 --> 04:25:15.780
They don't have a game plan for and it ultimately did not come out in their favor

04:25:15.780 --> 04:25:21.220
Now they're gonna be going up against a foot squad that over the last about six months or so has been playing consistently

04:25:21.420 --> 04:25:26.380
Better than Bp. Yeah, very one. They're also first thing lost today has been to Falcons who have just qualified

04:25:26.380 --> 04:25:31.180
That's a loss that we kind of all expected them to take by our predictions at the start of the day

04:25:31.180 --> 04:25:34.260
And since then they went over a tier 7 that still looks good

04:25:35.180 --> 04:25:41.220
Compared to Mateo Tapa that I went through five years again thinking that was gonna happen. That's that's almost

04:25:42.420 --> 04:25:48.100
Written in already and then they looked I think alright there's VP, but I wasn't particularly impressed by them

04:25:48.100 --> 04:25:52.060
I think there's still a lot of room for them to grow into and I think there's a little bit of a worry

04:25:52.420 --> 04:25:56.060
Especially when they go up against foot who are pretty much at level pegging with VP

04:25:56.060 --> 04:26:03.900
A few teams have been on the stage a few times so far today, but one can only one can continue one will be going home

04:26:04.060 --> 04:26:06.060
Let's talk to Marty Topper again

04:26:09.140 --> 04:26:12.140
The team formed at the beginning we are with Dorito

04:26:12.740 --> 04:26:17.300
when the regionals in Europe and then we decided to change our third

04:26:17.540 --> 04:26:24.300
and we decided that we should be with Atomic at the third and the harmony as a coach and there

04:26:24.300 --> 04:26:27.300
And we were able to qualify for the H&M.

04:26:30.300 --> 04:26:37.300
And the truth is that we didn't get too complicated, except for the final, but it wasn't very complicated, of course.

04:26:38.300 --> 04:26:45.300
It was a moment that I think we're going to have in our memories, because in the final it was very stressful, it was 27,

04:26:46.300 --> 04:26:51.300
and it was like a relief to qualify for the H&M because it wasn't going to make me forget much.

04:26:51.300 --> 04:26:56.300
And I think we are getting closer to the beginning,

04:26:56.300 --> 04:26:59.300
beyond what Candelito and I have explained for a long time.

04:26:59.300 --> 04:27:03.300
For me, we should be here for a long time.

04:27:05.300 --> 04:27:08.300
For me, the Worlds are the biggest thing there is,

04:27:08.300 --> 04:27:11.300
both in the Rocket and in any sport.

04:27:11.300 --> 04:27:16.300
It's a place where anyone wants to reach and win, especially.

04:27:16.300 --> 04:27:19.300
But only the best come.

04:27:19.300 --> 04:27:24.300
And that's what makes it important to be here.

04:27:24.300 --> 04:27:29.300
It doesn't matter if they don't trust us as much as they do here in the world.

04:27:29.300 --> 04:27:32.300
And we're going to show them everything.

04:27:49.300 --> 04:27:50.860
bring into this next one?

04:27:50.860 --> 04:27:56.020
Yeah, I mean, I don't think the strategy was bad.

04:27:56.020 --> 04:27:58.380
It was just the mental what she's not there.

04:27:58.380 --> 04:27:59.180
Really?

04:27:59.180 --> 04:28:01.420
Yeah, we won first game, one nail,

04:28:01.420 --> 04:28:04.580
and then the second one just went their way.

04:28:04.580 --> 04:28:08.180
And yeah, from there, moving forward was just every time

04:28:08.180 --> 04:28:09.340
it works.

04:28:09.340 --> 04:28:11.220
Yeah, so I mean, I guess speaking on the mental,

04:28:11.220 --> 04:28:13.620
I feel like sometimes that's a harder thing as a coach

04:28:13.620 --> 04:28:14.460
to deal with, right?

04:28:14.460 --> 04:28:16.660
Because if it's like, oh, you made this mistake here.

04:28:16.660 --> 04:28:18.820
Just fix this a little bit.

04:28:18.820 --> 04:28:20.620
That's an easy thing to point out.

04:28:20.620 --> 04:28:22.780
When it comes to mental, do you find that harder

04:28:22.780 --> 04:28:24.620
or do you find it easy to be able to get them back

04:28:24.620 --> 04:28:27.220
in the right spirits and know how to handle it?

04:28:27.220 --> 04:28:30.220
I mean, yeah, it's definitely way worse to handle

04:28:30.220 --> 04:28:31.540
than just gameplay.

04:28:31.540 --> 04:28:32.380
Right.

04:28:32.380 --> 04:28:33.860
Yeah, because like at the end of the day,

04:28:33.860 --> 04:28:35.900
everyone can see when somebody misses the ball

04:28:35.900 --> 04:28:37.020
or just doesn't miss the ball.

04:28:37.020 --> 04:28:39.740
But working with mental, it's hard.

04:28:39.740 --> 04:28:43.460
Not as hard with these guys, especially they are old.

04:28:43.460 --> 04:28:46.820
Yeah, they're old, but we're back here.

04:28:46.820 --> 04:28:52.540
But yeah, I think it's definitely way worse to work with that than just gameplay work.

04:28:52.540 --> 04:28:55.500
Well, I guess how is it coming into this?

04:28:55.500 --> 04:28:56.220
How is the mental?

04:28:56.220 --> 04:29:00.020
Are you guys now feeling confident that, OK, we're going to qualify?

04:29:00.020 --> 04:29:04.620
Yeah, we've been talking ever since we lost.

04:29:04.620 --> 04:29:07.020
We went to the practice room, we were talking and stuff.

04:29:07.020 --> 04:29:11.380
And yeah, we came to the conclusion that at the end of the day,

04:29:11.380 --> 04:29:14.020
we are all going into the same direction, right?

04:29:14.020 --> 04:29:15.540
And hopefully not all at once.

04:29:15.540 --> 04:29:16.380
That's exactly it.

04:29:16.380 --> 04:29:17.260
Exactly.

04:29:17.260 --> 04:29:20.220
And if we go separate directions, it's just not going to work.

04:29:20.220 --> 04:29:22.060
So like, we're just going all the way.

04:29:22.060 --> 04:29:24.020
You know, hey, hopefully it works there.

04:29:24.020 --> 04:29:26.140
And the metal is strong because it's do or die.

04:29:26.140 --> 04:29:28.420
Good luck in the matchup there, I'm on it with the squad.

04:29:28.420 --> 04:29:30.220
Now, of course, we have to take a look at their opponents

04:29:30.220 --> 04:29:32.420
on their other side and see how they're feeling.

04:29:37.420 --> 04:29:39.140
Foot's years so far is very interesting,

04:29:39.140 --> 04:29:41.860
considering we restarted the season with zero points.

04:29:41.860 --> 04:29:43.620
The foot team was built for LCKU.

04:29:43.620 --> 04:29:44.940
We didn't have that much pressure.

04:29:44.940 --> 04:29:47.100
Besides maybe a few couple teams that, you know,

04:29:47.100 --> 04:29:49.580
maybe like the Gen Gs and stuff that could maybe sneak in

04:29:49.580 --> 04:29:51.380
at like a game or two here and there.

04:29:51.380 --> 04:29:53.020
So it's definitely a little scary for sure.

04:29:53.020 --> 04:29:54.100
But we had nothing but confidence.

04:29:54.100 --> 04:29:56.780
We know the abilities we all have individually as players

04:29:56.780 --> 04:29:58.380
and as a team and how good we can be.

04:29:58.380 --> 04:30:01.180
So we just went in there confident and it clearly shows.

04:30:02.340 --> 04:30:03.860
I think coming to this world,

04:30:03.860 --> 04:30:06.460
I want to do very well considering the past events

04:30:06.460 --> 04:30:07.860
haven't been too good,

04:30:07.860 --> 04:30:09.900
but we've shown that we have fight in us.

04:30:09.900 --> 04:30:11.820
We've been showing very good scrims

04:30:11.820 --> 04:30:13.060
against the top, top teams.

04:30:13.060 --> 04:30:15.220
I've been to a lot of worlds, I've won worlds.

04:30:15.220 --> 04:30:16.620
I haven't lost a passion at all.

04:30:16.620 --> 04:30:19.580
I definitely am, I would say, a veteran in these situations.

04:30:19.580 --> 04:30:21.740
So I know kind of how to handle it.

04:30:21.740 --> 04:30:23.700
So I feel like on stage and when it matters,

04:30:23.700 --> 04:30:25.620
I could be the leader for Cheese and Chronic.

04:30:25.620 --> 04:30:28.260
And Chronic himself knows as well, because he's won majors.

04:30:28.260 --> 04:30:29.500
So I'm just hoping we get out of play-in

04:30:29.500 --> 04:30:32.380
and I think whoever we play first out of the play-in,

04:30:32.380 --> 04:30:33.620
I think we can confidently beat him

04:30:33.620 --> 04:30:36.420
and hopefully top it, and then we'll just keep going from there.

04:30:40.500 --> 04:30:42.740
We just saw them on the B-stream now, on the mainstream,

04:30:42.740 --> 04:30:48.660
I'm here with Adam Begat once again, you know, you guys just came off another match there a win

04:30:49.220 --> 04:30:52.500
Maybe a bit of whiplash from the previous match before that

04:30:53.020 --> 04:30:57.300
Did you guys feel that that kind of tug-and-pull there between the two matches? Yeah

04:30:57.300 --> 04:31:01.300
I mean in going from Falcons to TSM is obviously a big shift, but

04:31:01.940 --> 04:31:07.260
TSM, I mean we saw what they did at EWC they got a lot of energy and we've given them scrims in the past as well

04:31:07.260 --> 04:31:11.180
They're not a team to mess around with they absolutely deserve to be here

04:31:11.180 --> 04:31:14.780
and you know while it was easier than Falcons it was still difficult.

04:31:14.780 --> 04:31:19.500
Yeah absolutely now coming into this one I feel like it's not going to get easier as well.

04:31:19.500 --> 04:31:23.100
This qualification you know these guys are going to be coming at you with everything they have

04:31:23.100 --> 04:31:29.580
because it's new or die. Do you guys have a plan for things? Do you get scrappy and you have to

04:31:29.580 --> 04:31:33.020
readjust because they're playing maybe different than you expected?

04:31:33.020 --> 04:31:36.700
Yeah I think in everything that we've played we've had like a wake-up call

04:31:36.700 --> 04:31:38.660
a loss that was pretty bad.

04:31:38.660 --> 04:31:40.860
This line, it was Falcons and we spoke about it

04:31:40.860 --> 04:31:43.620
and now we have new things that we're gonna adjust to.

04:31:43.620 --> 04:31:45.740
Obviously, line is the criticalizer.

04:31:45.740 --> 04:31:47.420
Everyone kinda comes out of the level,

04:31:47.420 --> 04:31:49.860
so it's difficult to execute on ideas perfectly,

04:31:49.860 --> 04:31:51.140
so depending on how the day goes,

04:31:51.140 --> 04:31:53.420
we adjust, modify, and now we're executing.

04:31:53.420 --> 04:31:55.060
Right, and I asked him as well

04:31:55.060 --> 04:31:58.420
and I wanna get a yes from you.

04:31:58.420 --> 04:31:59.740
Are you guys feeling confident?

04:31:59.740 --> 04:32:01.220
This is a win and a qualification.

04:32:01.220 --> 04:32:02.060
Absolutely.

04:32:02.060 --> 04:32:02.900
Okay, good.

04:32:02.900 --> 04:32:03.740
That's what I was looking for there.

04:32:03.740 --> 04:32:05.300
Adam, thank you so much.

04:32:05.300 --> 04:32:08.460
Good luck in this match up here, and maybe we'll talk to you later on.

04:32:08.460 --> 04:32:10.060
Awesome. Thank you.

04:32:10.060 --> 04:32:13.740
Confidence from both squads who have had the longest days so far.

04:32:13.740 --> 04:32:19.740
The only teams that have to play three matches here on opening Tuesday.

04:32:19.740 --> 04:32:22.820
This match in the next following one, these squads that locked in,

04:32:23.140 --> 04:32:26.620
and I think that there's a case to be made for both of them in the

04:32:26.620 --> 04:32:28.620
performance they've had, but how do you tap this?

04:32:28.620 --> 04:32:31.260
They're only win so far today, Stumpy. It has been against five years.

04:32:31.260 --> 04:32:40.260
Yeah, I mean, it's gonna be such so annoying to both these things to be all excited to come to worlds as a brutal day.

04:32:40.260 --> 04:32:44.260
You've done all your screaming, you've got your boo, you've been hanging out with your team for the last week,

04:32:44.260 --> 04:32:50.260
and then it comes down to a single day. And if you do end up getting knocked out, which ultimately 14 needs to,

04:32:50.260 --> 04:32:55.260
it's gonna feel like a bit of a wasted journey. It's really hard, I think, mentally to be able to, I think,

04:32:55.260 --> 04:32:59.420
I think lock in and really be able to, I mean basically you can be disagreeing here.

04:32:59.420 --> 04:33:03.900
I think if I was competitor I find it really hard to lock in and think oh my god I've tried

04:33:03.900 --> 04:33:05.340
to push away all that pressure.

04:33:05.340 --> 04:33:07.980
I mean you try to push her out of pressure but that's what you signed up for.

04:33:07.980 --> 04:33:09.500
That's what you live for man.

04:33:09.500 --> 04:33:10.540
You live for these moments.

04:33:10.540 --> 04:33:11.980
Maybe I'm just a scared listener.

04:33:11.980 --> 04:33:13.020
You prepare for this moment.

04:33:13.020 --> 04:33:17.020
You knew coming into the plan that you were gonna have one day to prove yourself

04:33:17.020 --> 04:33:17.820
to make the main event.

04:33:17.820 --> 04:33:19.180
You know what you signed up for.

04:33:19.180 --> 04:33:21.900
You probably knew that you probably end up in this match right here in particular.

04:33:21.900 --> 04:33:24.300
You've been preparing for this match for months on in.

04:33:24.300 --> 04:33:26.200
Now it's time to go out and blow it up.

04:33:26.200 --> 04:33:30.120
And here's the thing, Mali Atafa, I hated their last match.

04:33:30.120 --> 04:33:32.640
Planting against VP, it was just a defensive battle.

04:33:32.640 --> 04:33:34.360
I talked about AJG, he might be moving up.

04:33:34.360 --> 04:33:34.860
He didn't.

04:33:34.860 --> 04:33:36.720
He was like, he was just playing back again,

04:33:36.720 --> 04:33:37.600
playing like oneself.

04:33:37.600 --> 04:33:42.600
They put in two goals on 30 shots, less than 7% shooting.

04:33:42.600 --> 04:33:43.960
That is not going to get it done.

04:33:43.960 --> 04:33:45.640
They have to fix that quickly.

04:33:45.640 --> 04:33:48.120
The problem is you have to do it in the same day,

04:33:48.120 --> 04:33:49.040
within hours.

04:33:49.040 --> 04:33:50.400
So you see if they can fix it.

04:33:50.400 --> 04:33:53.560
But at the same time, you look at foot,

04:33:53.560 --> 04:33:59.680
They have tough match against Falcons, but those last three games Falcons absolutely destroyed them as a 14 goals to two

04:33:59.800 --> 04:34:04.600
So they have to find a way to play clean defense. That was two man. I was two matches ago

04:34:04.600 --> 04:34:05.760
They just got off

04:34:05.760 --> 04:34:10.360
They just beat TSM in four games Justin had a worldly goal in that one

04:34:10.360 --> 04:34:13.400
It feels like they're gonna have some momentum coming into this here

04:34:13.400 --> 04:34:17.400
They're gonna feel red hot and all you thought was been sitting back there having to think about that loss

04:34:17.560 --> 04:34:20.000
Well, I will say that for the defense is a little questionable

04:34:20.000 --> 04:34:25.500
TSM match and last I'm thinking six five or something like that and if I was also scored a lot to and one thing

04:34:25.500 --> 04:34:29.280
I'm not a toddler they score a lot of goals. Well chat. Let's know who you think is gonna win

04:34:29.280 --> 04:34:32.000
I'll make the predictions up here on the desk Stumpy you got

04:34:32.720 --> 04:34:33.920
um, I

04:34:33.920 --> 04:34:39.200
Don't really back my European compatriots here. I'm not particularly impressed with the vibe today. Come on over here

04:34:39.200 --> 04:34:43.720
Yeah, I've not I've not been very impressed with them. I said earlier on I didn't love that series first Bp

04:34:43.720 --> 04:34:48.600
I'd be being that and I just managed to get it done. So yeah for here. I've got foot. They've been more exciting

04:34:48.600 --> 04:34:51.240
that being, I think, better on the front foot, on the back foot.

04:34:51.240 --> 04:34:53.660
Overall, they're just their best team on the day.

04:34:53.660 --> 04:34:54.740
It's a high pressure match.

04:34:54.740 --> 04:34:56.700
You got to go with a world champion, Justin.

04:34:56.700 --> 04:34:59.220
You have to go with a major winner in chronic.

04:34:59.220 --> 04:34:59.940
So I'm going for it.

04:34:59.940 --> 04:35:00.900
I'm going three up.

04:35:00.900 --> 04:35:02.780
This is a good thing today.

04:35:02.780 --> 04:35:04.660
I want to say that my body top of those.

04:35:04.660 --> 04:35:05.300
They're a good team.

04:35:05.300 --> 04:35:06.780
But I do think it's a little bit better,

04:35:06.780 --> 04:35:08.700
especially coming in there in better form.

04:35:08.700 --> 04:35:09.580
Give me foot Eastports.

04:35:09.580 --> 04:35:10.460
Probably about three weeks.

04:35:10.460 --> 04:35:11.700
I'll let you know a secret,

04:35:11.700 --> 04:35:12.820
but he says a lot of good things

04:35:12.820 --> 04:35:13.820
for the last decade.

04:35:13.820 --> 04:35:15.100
He's pretty smart.

04:35:15.100 --> 04:35:17.180
I also have foot Eastports on this one, folks.

04:35:17.180 --> 04:35:18.420
How does the point feel about it?

04:35:18.420 --> 04:35:22.120
We got money topic here with the blue. We got put on the other side into the air. And

04:35:22.120 --> 04:35:26.420
is it a couple of foot to sweep so far have been a good thing, a good omen that the predictions

04:35:26.420 --> 04:35:32.080
have been correct. A small data pool so far. But you know, sure, we'll see what goes again.

04:35:32.080 --> 04:35:36.900
We talked about foot. They won the EWC, L CQ and VP. They took out money top. They'd

04:35:36.900 --> 04:35:41.380
lay in that tournament. Money top was there, but they failed to qualify. So head to head.

04:35:41.380 --> 04:35:45.220
You have to go with foot, but it's a high pressure match. Anything can happen. I

04:35:45.220 --> 04:35:49.320
I mean, we heard Justin in the little video piece saying that this team was built for the LCQ.

04:35:49.320 --> 04:35:49.820
Five percent.

04:35:49.820 --> 04:35:53.420
Made it up, but also built for the LCQ, and put together a little bit.

04:35:53.420 --> 04:35:55.720
Yes, but literally built for the LCQ.

04:35:55.720 --> 04:35:58.020
After Payor, I said, all right, let's put together a team.

04:35:58.020 --> 04:35:59.420
And they've made it to the same spot.

04:35:59.420 --> 04:36:01.820
Only one can continue.

04:36:01.820 --> 04:36:06.220
I'm curious, I'm curious if Europe has woken up, and no, not.

04:36:06.220 --> 04:36:07.020
I think they have.

04:36:07.020 --> 04:36:10.520
I think actually they probably have, and this is just our just a little while.

04:36:10.520 --> 04:36:11.620
I think it might have been.

04:36:11.620 --> 04:36:12.820
They might have gone.

04:36:12.820 --> 04:36:14.020
They might have gone.

04:36:14.020 --> 04:36:15.120
About 12 hours.

04:36:15.120 --> 04:36:17.960
Justin Jee's probably also very popular players here have been all season.

04:36:17.960 --> 04:36:22.120
Can they continue to the good vibes get to play in the group stage folks?

04:36:22.440 --> 04:36:26.280
Only two spots remaining in tomorrow's competition.

04:36:26.280 --> 04:36:29.560
Europe versus North America and a tail is all this time.

04:36:29.560 --> 04:36:31.160
Marietta versus play.

04:36:35.160 --> 04:36:37.320
Things getting scary here in the lower bracket.

04:36:37.320 --> 04:36:40.400
You're one match away from qualifying for the World Championship,

04:36:40.720 --> 04:36:43.680
but you're also one match away from being eliminated.

04:36:43.680 --> 04:36:46.680
Mati Tampo versus Butch trying to get in.

04:36:47.680 --> 04:36:53.680
This is it. One more chance. Butch already got some momentum in the lower bracket.

04:36:53.680 --> 04:36:55.680
Hold Desk right in him. I'm picking him as well.

04:36:55.680 --> 04:37:00.680
I expected him to make a lower bracket run after losing some bulk. It was a tough loss.

04:37:00.680 --> 04:37:05.680
These guys have been extremely consistent in the last half of the season.

04:37:05.680 --> 04:37:10.680
If that TSM matches anything to look at, it might be scary.

04:37:10.680 --> 04:37:17.320
as Dorito and company are trying to get things going and okay in the start of that

04:37:17.320 --> 04:37:23.560
Virtus Pro match but slowly lost control of the match really tried to emphasize

04:37:23.560 --> 04:37:29.080
the physical game see what they go for. I'm already it was foot threatening she's

04:37:29.080 --> 04:37:31.440
going to turn tail quickly he does get to the touch.

04:37:31.440 --> 04:37:36.200
Oh they've got to be careful moving back to their corner against Vulcans

04:37:36.200 --> 04:37:43.200
We did a little bit of ultra-treaty control of all the defense at times, but we were able to punch all over them.

04:37:43.200 --> 04:37:47.200
Now I don't think we're going to be up against as much pressure in this series.

04:37:47.200 --> 04:37:53.200
They tapped our solid squad, but the one sort of a comparison to go up against your teammates,

04:37:53.200 --> 04:37:55.200
he's course broke that latch as well.

04:37:55.200 --> 04:38:00.200
But what not, now he tapped our fourth, and they weren't close to taking down any of the top three.

04:38:00.200 --> 04:38:06.760
3. Oh, that's all posted out. It's all clear. It starts a strong early good one.

04:38:08.440 --> 04:38:14.280
Quickly again, AJG with no boosts and almost slipped it in. Opened it up for Cheese and

04:38:14.280 --> 04:38:23.960
put it on the score. The mental game highlighted by Matthew Tapas coach as the weak point in their

04:38:23.960 --> 04:38:30.440
They're probably lost, it's being tested early here by foot who have made sure to yell as

04:38:30.440 --> 04:38:37.280
lengthy as possible, maybe sneak some celebrations through the noise-castling headsets, and tilt

04:38:37.280 --> 04:38:39.720
the Spaniards and AJG as well.

04:38:39.720 --> 04:38:44.240
There's been on a bit of a world tour, AJG, very successful player in multiple regions

04:38:44.240 --> 04:38:46.800
now in NA, Sam, and Europe.

04:38:46.800 --> 04:38:50.840
Qualified for RLCS lands as a member of each of those regions as well.

04:38:50.840 --> 04:38:54.120
is definitely World Traveler in the RLCS.

04:38:54.120 --> 04:38:56.680
It is an impressive resume for sure.

04:38:56.680 --> 04:38:59.240
Actually qualifying for the Groups partner,

04:38:59.240 --> 04:39:00.920
getting to the foot of the next task.

04:39:00.920 --> 04:39:02.680
And it's proved to be troublesome so far

04:39:02.680 --> 04:39:04.280
in the opening two minutes.

04:39:04.280 --> 04:39:06.720
Almost zero offense to Speedkill.

04:39:06.720 --> 04:39:09.800
They get a free 50 back in the middle of a great shot.

04:39:09.800 --> 04:39:11.560
The tie rings up.

04:39:11.560 --> 04:39:15.360
Good speed by Hazel, but he needs to be the guide

04:39:15.360 --> 04:39:16.320
for this team.

04:39:16.320 --> 04:39:19.880
He's had a series of the pastries really taking over.

04:39:19.880 --> 04:39:27.400
Got a lot of help there from AJG, all putting the goal for him by taking the goalkeeper out.

04:39:27.400 --> 04:39:29.400
And that's really the match I've been looking for.

04:39:29.400 --> 04:39:35.960
You've got a player to watch on Mathew Tafeut would be Atomic and I think it's Justin for

04:39:35.960 --> 04:39:38.680
foot and he's been outstanding for this team.

04:39:38.680 --> 04:39:42.720
And already today he's been playing some of his best rugby.

04:39:42.720 --> 04:39:45.120
He's some dunk there from Jeeze Justin.

04:39:45.120 --> 04:39:49.920
It's up from behind, adding a little bit more power than he was hoping for.

04:39:49.920 --> 04:39:52.200
Not to any top low, will keep things even.

04:39:52.200 --> 04:39:53.880
Geez.

04:39:53.880 --> 04:39:57.280
Sweeps the ball quickly, 50 right back in front of the midfield.

04:39:57.280 --> 04:39:58.800
Burrito cuts in front.

04:39:58.800 --> 04:40:00.200
Ball comes out for free, though.

04:40:00.200 --> 04:40:03.920
Put off the ceiling, and it bounces off the car as Atomic is retreating.

04:40:03.920 --> 04:40:05.400
Yeah, it's only Pete Justin to the ball there.

04:40:05.400 --> 04:40:09.160
Justin actually skipped it backwards, so he tried to get a reset double.

04:40:09.160 --> 04:40:10.720
I'm sure Justin was landing a reset double,

04:40:10.720 --> 04:40:12.480
had it on the third time he's entered.

04:40:12.480 --> 04:40:13.320
He's been on points today,

04:40:13.320 --> 04:40:14.560
where she's been punted to the ball.

04:40:14.560 --> 04:40:17.560
It's actually a fast play for a foot.

04:40:18.560 --> 04:40:19.900
That's what he's happened to.

04:40:19.900 --> 04:40:21.900
It's when we equalize that they feel pressure

04:40:21.900 --> 04:40:23.660
the foot had on them early on.

04:40:23.660 --> 04:40:25.700
Oh, big outplay to here from front.

04:40:25.700 --> 04:40:27.700
Way over A.J.G.'s reading.

04:40:27.700 --> 04:40:29.500
No boost for Atomic, he's having to watch that

04:40:29.500 --> 04:40:31.280
go out to the corner.

04:40:31.280 --> 04:40:32.780
Justin got to a quick reaction.

04:40:32.780 --> 04:40:35.180
First of the ball, free pass to the top of the ball.

04:40:35.180 --> 04:40:37.420
That foot take the lead.

04:40:37.420 --> 04:40:38.620
It's a two quick, Justin,

04:40:38.620 --> 04:40:40.580
free flip, arms involved here.

04:40:40.580 --> 04:40:42.720
Getting onto the ball a little bit quicker

04:40:42.720 --> 04:40:44.720
in the defender.

04:40:44.720 --> 04:40:46.720
Chronic attacking in the near post.

04:40:46.720 --> 04:40:48.720
That's the kind of face that you've got to have in each other.

04:40:48.720 --> 04:40:50.720
You've got to follow up quickly at this level.

04:40:50.720 --> 04:40:52.720
Chronic did exactly that.

04:40:54.720 --> 04:40:58.720
Just when it looked like Mati and Toppo were starting to get somewhere,

04:40:58.720 --> 04:41:02.720
you talk about them finally equalizing that big build pressure

04:41:02.720 --> 04:41:04.720
and even getting some favorable bumps.

04:41:04.720 --> 04:41:07.720
Things turned to disaster really quick.

04:41:07.720 --> 04:41:09.720
It's one down field.

04:41:09.720 --> 04:41:11.720
Another good challenge to stop a quick counter attack.

04:41:11.720 --> 04:41:17.160
to attack. JJG still tries to throw bumps, just not connecting on at the time, and AJG

04:41:17.160 --> 04:41:23.240
you know he calls and gets a very neat and quick. Both teams actually stretch a pretty

04:41:23.240 --> 04:41:34.680
thin there for a while. No goals either way. Still, not one goal at a time since Paul

04:41:34.680 --> 04:41:41.800
of it. He's made a name for himself with his defensive ability, restraining some of the best

04:41:41.800 --> 04:41:47.640
teams in the world. All right, live events throughout this calendar year, especially when

04:41:47.640 --> 04:41:52.280
they can get it from Justin Pickett, everybody. Good defense on the goal in there for Matthew

04:41:52.280 --> 04:41:58.840
E. Kappa. It's almost a repeat of what talk did to them in their game versus Virtus.pro

04:41:58.840 --> 04:42:01.480
It's time. It works in their favor.

04:42:01.480 --> 04:42:03.720
AJG reads that touch perfectly is.

04:42:03.720 --> 04:42:04.720
Jeez, misses the ball.

04:42:04.720 --> 04:42:06.720
He quickly gets there in time.

04:42:06.720 --> 04:42:07.880
I don't think he had a chance.

04:42:07.880 --> 04:42:08.880
That's all.

04:42:08.880 --> 04:42:09.880
McHannam beat clean.

04:42:09.880 --> 04:42:12.880
And Masi is hop-up on the game time door.

04:42:12.880 --> 04:42:13.880
Yeah, AJG.

04:42:13.880 --> 04:42:16.880
Just ran, just it.

04:42:16.880 --> 04:42:17.880
Hit a heavy first touch.

04:42:17.880 --> 04:42:18.880
Got intercepted.

04:42:18.880 --> 04:42:22.880
And then, all of a sudden, it's a tight game.

04:42:22.880 --> 04:42:23.880
And that was against the run of play.

04:42:23.880 --> 04:42:26.880
They put up at the advantage for the majority of the game.

04:42:26.880 --> 04:42:30.560
But two key moments for Atomic, just a bit quick to the punch.

04:42:30.560 --> 04:42:33.560
Score twice.

04:42:33.560 --> 04:42:37.040
AJG plays that challenge in the ceiling.

04:42:37.040 --> 04:42:38.200
A great idea.

04:42:38.200 --> 04:42:41.520
Atomic, you saw almost find a way to sneak it in before you

04:42:41.520 --> 04:42:42.880
get the clear.

04:42:42.880 --> 04:42:45.080
Alamand downfield, going for the double tap.

04:42:45.080 --> 04:42:48.240
Chronic is defended by AJG, cutting the space.

04:42:48.240 --> 04:42:49.720
Dorito has no boost.

04:42:49.720 --> 04:42:51.160
Atomic also very low on boost.

04:42:51.160 --> 04:42:52.520
Don't go for it.

04:42:52.520 --> 04:42:54.440
Now, pushing foot out of the way.

04:42:54.440 --> 04:42:55.960
Chronic has to buy a little bit of time,

04:42:55.960 --> 04:42:59.960
He was given the space for it. AJG thinks he's going to go, but Paak has no poops.

04:42:59.960 --> 04:43:01.960
He has about 20. He's not going to push it.

04:43:02.960 --> 04:43:03.960
The foot.

04:43:03.960 --> 04:43:07.960
Well, keep things tied up for now, but AJG quickly up the side while passing.

04:43:07.960 --> 04:43:08.960
To the show.

04:43:08.960 --> 04:43:09.960
Paak denied.

04:43:09.960 --> 04:43:11.960
In the way was Kromek.

04:43:11.960 --> 04:43:14.960
And we found seconds. He wants to play ball, but it's cleared away.

04:43:14.960 --> 04:43:17.960
Got to be careful because here comes the Kromek.

04:43:17.960 --> 04:43:18.960
Paak got pulled up.

04:43:18.960 --> 04:43:27.960
Adjusted Grounds it for overtime, now it's head to head stop, Bum Deeds had chances, hit the 0-second sequence, great kick off by foot.

04:43:27.960 --> 04:43:33.960
Cheese gets down on the left, Doritos up early, looks like Dresden's not sure what he's done for Bullen for about a second.

04:43:33.960 --> 04:43:37.960
He's been trying to slow them all down in defense, just to not take over.

04:43:37.960 --> 04:43:48.960
Justin got another reset and somehow got it on the corner I think. That was interesting, by the way, on the corner, nobody can come in.

04:43:48.960 --> 04:43:52.960
Justin has to get bailed out and he will. Chronic, they're bailed out.

04:43:52.960 --> 04:43:57.960
Yeah Justin, didn't get the first step to one, didn't know if Chronic was there to help him out.

04:43:57.960 --> 04:44:00.960
He dropped on two. Don't look at it eventually.

04:44:00.960 --> 04:44:02.960
Obviously cheese

04:44:02.960 --> 04:44:06.960
Okay, first teammate in the middle, Atlan buffed once already, he's done really well so he's on that one

04:44:08.960 --> 04:44:14.960
They're stretching white bar into the pitch, well here's the whole way to safe, off the post by Gronik

04:44:15.960 --> 04:44:20.960
I think the first, you know, they're really pushing to get goals, more than we used to see from them

04:44:20.960 --> 04:44:24.960
And it's worrying me, because Marti's that quicko transition

04:44:24.960 --> 04:44:28.960
I've come straight out for cheese, went straight to the dirt.

04:44:28.960 --> 04:44:30.960
Chronic has Justin behind him.

04:44:30.960 --> 04:44:32.960
Actually, cheese is going to turn.

04:44:32.960 --> 04:44:34.960
We'll get a chance at it, Justin, next up.

04:44:34.960 --> 04:44:36.960
Tomic will go up high.

04:44:36.960 --> 04:44:40.960
It has been Masi Itaba, really denying anything.

04:44:40.960 --> 04:44:42.960
Put him tried.

04:44:42.960 --> 04:44:43.960
This one comes out, slips around.

04:44:43.960 --> 04:44:44.960
That could have been an oh-goal.

04:44:44.960 --> 04:44:47.960
Could have been a lot of things that slipped right by Justin, though,

04:44:47.960 --> 04:44:49.960
and foot will get the clear.

04:44:49.960 --> 04:44:50.960
This is good pressure.

04:44:50.960 --> 04:44:52.960
Matti, definitely gets it right back in.

04:44:52.960 --> 04:44:53.800
He's fine.

04:44:53.800 --> 04:44:56.760
Chronic trying to control the back corner, but again, he's lost it.

04:44:56.760 --> 04:44:58.440
That's been a bit of a problem for Pitt today,

04:44:58.440 --> 04:45:02.080
where they just lose control with a heavy touch.

04:45:02.080 --> 04:45:06.200
Had a key moment, presented opportunity to their opponents.

04:45:06.200 --> 04:45:08.280
Can't feel like they're going to get away with that for too long.

04:45:08.280 --> 04:45:11.200
Lossy Toppa keeps sending it.

04:45:11.200 --> 04:45:14.520
Justin off the ceiling, and wow, he gets the 50.

04:45:14.520 --> 04:45:18.200
Now for a charge around, and a free throw!

04:45:18.200 --> 04:45:19.920
Foot take, game one!

04:45:19.920 --> 04:45:23.720
And it's an absolute tilter for Matai Tapa.

04:45:23.720 --> 04:45:27.280
What a play by Justin, who continues to impress

04:45:27.280 --> 04:45:31.640
in what has been an outrageously impressive year for him.

04:45:31.640 --> 04:45:34.040
Big tank dunk, he assisted the second goal as well,

04:45:34.040 --> 04:45:36.200
but he's the difference-naked.

04:45:36.200 --> 04:45:40.360
He's the guy who's surprising Matai Tapa.

04:45:40.360 --> 04:45:42.360
And he's creating goalscoring opportunities

04:45:42.360 --> 04:45:43.360
for foot and cronics.

04:45:43.360 --> 04:45:44.360
He could have missed that one.

04:45:44.360 --> 04:45:47.760
He had a long time to think about it, probably too much.

04:45:47.760 --> 04:45:49.360
That's one you're really scared about.

04:45:49.360 --> 04:45:50.480
You take a breath, right?

04:45:50.480 --> 04:45:52.480
Yeah, it's a bit easier when you just have to go for the ball,

04:45:52.480 --> 04:45:55.080
but you can make sure to hand it in.

04:45:57.720 --> 04:46:02.040
So close calls as well, Atomic had a very solid game,

04:46:02.040 --> 04:46:05.600
had a chance at the end to take the lead,

04:46:05.600 --> 04:46:08.080
and Chronic came in at the last second to make the save.

04:46:08.080 --> 04:46:10.360
Here right there, Atomic just clean-beat and cheese

04:46:10.360 --> 04:46:12.840
on the play.

04:46:12.840 --> 04:46:14.560
And then at the end, the demo for Justin,

04:46:14.560 --> 04:46:17.600
don't see on that replay, but critical to giving Chronic

04:46:17.600 --> 04:46:20.880
that open net try and foot.

04:46:20.880 --> 04:46:22.720
Now everybody kind of looking at them

04:46:22.720 --> 04:46:26.040
and Falcons, I think, the most in this play-in.

04:46:26.040 --> 04:46:28.640
And right now, these foot fans are probably

04:46:28.640 --> 04:46:29.920
stressing a little bit right now.

04:46:29.920 --> 04:46:32.120
It's not been the easiest go for them in the lower bracket.

04:46:32.120 --> 04:46:33.880
Yeah, of course, especially being down in the lower.

04:46:33.880 --> 04:46:35.840
So you only got this one last chance.

04:46:35.840 --> 04:46:37.360
But Matthew, that bullet was stressed.

04:46:37.360 --> 04:46:39.240
I think, you know, I'm not a body language expert.

04:46:39.240 --> 04:46:41.280
Don't play it to me, but we do love to analyze.

04:46:41.280 --> 04:46:43.280
There's a lot of looking to the stars going on.

04:46:43.280 --> 04:46:45.160
Physical tilt at the end of that game

04:46:45.160 --> 04:46:46.320
from the top, making the middle.

04:46:46.320 --> 04:46:53.280
You know frustrating for them because they've already lost earlier on today to VP now they're down against foot and

04:46:53.960 --> 04:46:57.140
You know, I think we talk up the reach of rivalry more than the players do

04:46:57.140 --> 04:47:04.040
But this is definitely something that they will want to prove to themselves. They've been second best to VP

04:47:04.360 --> 04:47:08.600
But for quite some time now, you know, you see flashless football world's playing

04:47:09.560 --> 04:47:11.560
And again more strudels

04:47:13.720 --> 04:47:15.720
See what they can get done now

04:47:16.320 --> 04:47:18.320
And they were able to respond twice

04:47:20.560 --> 04:47:23.560
Tomic a big factor in those as Dorito

04:47:24.060 --> 04:47:27.840
Make sure he gets that midfield boos these 50s go straight out

04:47:30.480 --> 04:47:37.140
Target with Doritos there to knock it away. Oh fair play. What a save that was from Dorito Justin nailed the reset double

04:47:37.800 --> 04:47:42.100
He really went for that as well full power didn't hit the exact you're seeing anyway

04:47:42.100 --> 04:47:47.100
They're picking up where they left off, they're placing the radar off the league at the moment.

04:47:47.100 --> 04:47:50.100
Justin forcing high-cheese with a double-tap of defense.

04:47:50.100 --> 04:47:52.100
He can play that one safely.

04:47:52.100 --> 04:47:54.100
That's going to be the key. I keep talking to my teammates.

04:47:54.100 --> 04:47:57.100
They're really to get trolled about in those defensive plays.

04:47:57.100 --> 04:47:59.100
It's been a bit of an issue for them at times.

04:47:59.100 --> 04:48:01.100
There, they're going to be with it.

04:48:02.100 --> 04:48:06.100
Masi Tomek and a double-tap Dorino finds the net!

04:48:06.100 --> 04:48:08.100
And Masi Tomek with the first lead of the series.

04:48:08.100 --> 04:48:15.100
The cronix just didn't get control again, same idea, hitting the ball into the corner.

04:48:15.100 --> 04:48:18.100
Here it comes, right back with interest.

04:48:18.100 --> 04:48:19.100
It's a retail.

04:48:19.100 --> 04:48:22.100
Let's say it was a nice double tap.

04:48:22.100 --> 04:48:26.100
We improved our series as we thought we might.

04:48:26.100 --> 04:48:33.100
I'd like to put chances for coming back to a little bit more than what they tap up.

04:48:33.100 --> 04:48:35.100
Wow, that was...

04:48:35.100 --> 04:48:37.700
Hey Justin, what is going on with you, man?

04:48:37.700 --> 04:48:38.540
He's hitting.

04:48:38.540 --> 04:48:39.540
He's got crazy stuff right now.

04:48:39.540 --> 04:48:40.540
He's got Ford again.

04:48:40.540 --> 04:48:42.220
Ford can't play on target.

04:48:42.220 --> 04:48:43.220
Chronic.

04:48:43.220 --> 04:48:45.780
He just freaks it off the phone just to get back.

04:48:45.780 --> 04:48:48.580
And somehow just wins all that ball against AJG.

04:48:48.580 --> 04:48:49.780
But he's got no clues.

04:48:49.780 --> 04:48:50.780
He can't play ball.

04:48:50.780 --> 04:48:52.820
Final minute, Justin nearly scored.

04:48:52.820 --> 04:48:54.220
Goal of the tournament again.

04:48:54.220 --> 04:48:57.380
He's already in the contention for that.

04:48:57.380 --> 04:48:59.140
But that missed the easier chance afterwards.

04:48:59.140 --> 04:49:02.620
At least it looked easier as the ball came back across to.

04:49:02.620 --> 04:49:04.340
Chronic creeped the post for point-like range.

04:49:04.340 --> 04:49:07.340
They're dead chases, and so, Seagull, out of this stuff, right?

04:49:08.340 --> 04:49:10.340
I think the goal is coming eventually.

04:49:10.340 --> 04:49:11.340
Sometimes they can't hold on,

04:49:11.340 --> 04:49:13.340
cause they avoid your C-Dig in the meantime.

04:49:13.340 --> 04:49:16.340
He looks dead in the water there in the box.

04:49:16.340 --> 04:49:18.340
Somehow gets the save.

04:49:18.340 --> 04:49:20.340
Justin is going for the 50th.

04:49:20.340 --> 04:49:22.340
A lot of them got from so far back.

04:49:22.340 --> 04:49:23.340
They're still winning it.

04:49:23.340 --> 04:49:24.340
AJG though, right in the spot.

04:49:24.340 --> 04:49:26.340
Atomic gets a demo.

04:49:26.340 --> 04:49:27.340
Opens up another chance.

04:49:27.340 --> 04:49:28.340
Off the box!

04:49:28.340 --> 04:49:29.340
What a god!

04:49:29.340 --> 04:49:31.340
AJG to nothing!

04:49:31.340 --> 04:49:34.180
It's passing from AJG and Atomic.

04:49:34.180 --> 04:49:36.460
Atomic has just done demo in his office.

04:49:36.460 --> 04:49:40.340
Actually gets the pass back to AJG in reverse.

04:49:40.340 --> 04:49:42.460
But here it's coming, but they couldn't stop it anyway.

04:49:42.460 --> 04:49:45.100
It's just too precise by Matai Dapper.

04:49:47.660 --> 04:49:49.620
The Dapper closed calls for Justin.

04:49:49.620 --> 04:49:51.580
They cut away empty handed.

04:49:51.580 --> 04:49:54.220
And now with a two-goal deficit,

04:49:54.220 --> 04:49:57.100
G's with a failed reset.

04:49:57.100 --> 04:50:01.220
Tried for the pump on AJG who's been avoiding it.

04:50:01.220 --> 04:50:02.660
getting back to those 50s.

04:50:02.660 --> 04:50:05.540
Thorita on the carry, atomic.

04:50:05.540 --> 04:50:06.620
Now it's on, excuse me, cheese.

04:50:06.620 --> 04:50:08.420
I'm getting pulled by colors here.

04:50:08.420 --> 04:50:10.700
They do like to cover rotation, and it almost

04:50:10.700 --> 04:50:13.420
looks like they're attempting on those attacks.

04:50:13.420 --> 04:50:15.340
This is something that the football team's doing a lot of

04:50:15.340 --> 04:50:17.140
teams do in the first few days.

04:50:17.140 --> 04:50:20.260
Playing them all while rotating back.

04:50:20.260 --> 04:50:22.180
Yeah, you rest if we hit the towards the back part,

04:50:22.180 --> 04:50:25.180
it will hit it hard towards the back part

04:50:25.180 --> 04:50:28.660
if they see space to do so.

04:50:28.660 --> 04:50:34.660
He wants it now. He's upset he didn't get it earlier.

04:50:34.660 --> 04:50:37.660
It should be on at the end. It's far away.

04:50:37.660 --> 04:50:41.660
They'll do this to get something going pretty soon though.

04:50:41.660 --> 04:50:43.660
Oh no, that should be on.

04:50:43.660 --> 04:50:44.660
It just wins.

04:50:44.660 --> 04:50:45.660
Is it?

04:50:45.660 --> 04:50:47.660
It is. It's just gone through this one. Get in.

04:50:47.660 --> 04:50:49.660
And do get the press call.

04:50:49.660 --> 04:50:52.660
All the simple outplay from cheese.

04:50:52.660 --> 04:50:54.660
The classic sight one to the wall.

04:50:54.660 --> 04:50:56.660
Recover fast in the second man.

04:50:56.660 --> 04:51:03.660
I've been able to hang on, but just a quick roll, double in.

04:51:03.660 --> 04:51:07.660
We talked about not just protecting the ball, just being able to control out.

04:51:07.660 --> 04:51:08.660
Wow!

04:51:08.660 --> 04:51:09.660
And double up!

04:51:09.660 --> 04:51:11.660
Ball game here in game two.

04:51:11.660 --> 04:51:13.660
Oh, look at the faces of Matthew.

04:51:13.660 --> 04:51:14.660
You can't believe it.

04:51:14.660 --> 04:51:18.660
Great kickoff by Footbaking it with the first player.

04:51:18.660 --> 04:51:25.660
Second player comes in behind quickly, dunks the ball towards the player who just made the ball.

04:51:25.660 --> 04:51:28.660
Well, yes, it opened that.

04:51:28.660 --> 04:51:31.660
This time, it's about to start a great demo by Giso.

04:51:31.660 --> 04:51:33.660
Leaving it open for Karate Kuseyosubu,

04:51:33.660 --> 04:51:36.660
since he's advanced into getting to first.

04:51:36.660 --> 04:51:40.660
And Giso, in that TSM series, has had some struggles,

04:51:40.660 --> 04:51:42.660
especially defensively.

04:51:42.660 --> 04:51:45.660
But in this game, in particular, it's really been instrumental

04:51:45.660 --> 04:51:48.660
in getting foot back in the game.

04:51:48.660 --> 04:51:53.660
Justin, with a couple of tries that he couldn't connect on.

04:51:53.660 --> 04:51:57.100
He's kind of in the middle, very stable inside the rotation.

04:51:57.100 --> 04:51:59.580
Slightly getting bumped, recovers.

04:51:59.580 --> 04:52:02.060
Back to the corner, his foot get another clear.

04:52:02.060 --> 04:52:06.620
Matte Atapa want to keep moving, Atomic sizing this one up.

04:52:06.620 --> 04:52:08.460
As AJG will come back in a third of a hand.

04:52:08.460 --> 04:52:11.980
Justin Bump, but Dorito with barely any boost, did not want to come in.

04:52:11.980 --> 04:52:14.300
This one gets set straight back down!

04:52:14.300 --> 04:52:17.180
And it's Dorian answer for Furt.

04:52:17.180 --> 04:52:20.940
Just anything that's going to be Matte Atapa at one end.

04:52:20.940 --> 04:52:22.620
It's hard with the counter attack.

04:52:22.620 --> 04:52:26.620
AJG did not read that bounce, we can see that it was upward

04:52:26.620 --> 04:52:29.420
from the moment it went to the backboard from Cheese.

04:52:29.420 --> 04:52:33.260
It's a tap in and another lead back in frustration from Matt A. Tapper.

04:52:33.260 --> 04:52:35.980
Lots of chair movement.

04:52:35.980 --> 04:52:39.580
They need more ball movement towards the only tap.

04:52:39.580 --> 04:52:41.660
It's Cheese, Mox and away.

04:52:41.660 --> 04:52:44.380
It's there, but AJG is ready this time.

04:52:44.380 --> 04:52:47.260
Gives his corner boost, a still foot looking for another goal.

04:52:47.260 --> 04:52:50.940
Here's AJG, a real high challenging foot defense.

04:52:50.940 --> 04:52:58.540
They're up to the task for now. Atomic pops it up again, not going to get it too high up, was easily challenged by Kronik.

04:52:59.900 --> 04:53:04.860
As he gets him out off the ramp, Johnson gets there, clearly back to Cheese.

04:53:04.860 --> 04:53:09.500
Cheese with the shots up and trying to dive on it. Kronik will come around quickly, there's not a lot of boost.

04:53:09.500 --> 04:53:16.780
For Dorito, he gets pushed on and Cheese will help out for a second, but Maté is up against the goal and we've got a tie game.

04:53:16.780 --> 04:53:18.780
Oh, that's a big miss from foot.

04:53:18.780 --> 04:53:21.780
They were on the home straight, the game.

04:53:21.780 --> 04:53:25.780
Justin might have missed a jump, but it's like he didn't want to there.

04:53:25.780 --> 04:53:27.780
He had a player in front of him and he had to jump over.

04:53:27.780 --> 04:53:29.780
I don't know if that's put him off.

04:53:29.780 --> 04:53:33.780
We've got to see his POV to be sure, but he's blown way too low at that.

04:53:33.780 --> 04:53:34.780
Missed right in the bounce.

04:53:34.780 --> 04:53:38.780
And it's an easy go from that thing he can't put a type of game.

04:53:38.780 --> 04:53:41.780
Oh, the kickoff with the fake AJG.

04:53:41.780 --> 04:53:43.780
Not going to get much out at the top.

04:53:43.780 --> 04:53:45.780
I can't believe he gets another chance at this ball.

04:53:45.780 --> 04:53:47.780
Ball, but he won't get a dunk.

04:53:47.780 --> 04:53:48.900
AJG comes quickly.

04:53:48.900 --> 04:53:50.380
Montaigne's off the tries.

04:53:50.380 --> 04:53:51.700
Kick his lead back.

04:53:51.700 --> 04:53:54.220
Mr. Ball, Justin avoids AJG.

04:53:54.220 --> 04:53:55.380
Gets the save.

04:53:55.380 --> 04:53:56.860
Now, Kwanak has cheese downfield.

04:53:56.860 --> 04:53:57.740
He steals the boost.

04:53:57.740 --> 04:53:59.420
Cheese off the back wall.

04:53:59.420 --> 04:54:02.020
Justin, he's not going to hit it.

04:54:02.020 --> 04:54:03.980
I don't think he liked the angle of the shot there.

04:54:03.980 --> 04:54:06.220
He's just left it.

04:54:06.220 --> 04:54:09.460
For fear of shooting at a goalkeeper, giving the ball away.

04:54:09.460 --> 04:54:12.380
Yeah, Justin's kind of lost his flow for a bit here.

04:54:12.380 --> 04:54:14.740
That thickness in defense is like to more widths.

04:54:14.740 --> 04:54:15.700
Oh, and now he's under the ball.

04:54:15.700 --> 04:54:18.540
There's a no-minds-line that bounces up the backboard heartlessly.

04:54:19.420 --> 04:54:20.940
Yeah, but he just sit back in the game.

04:54:20.940 --> 04:54:22.060
He's been their best player.

04:54:22.060 --> 04:54:25.020
He's been absolutely phenomenal for them.

04:54:25.020 --> 04:54:29.740
But he's had a minute or so there where he's just lost.

04:54:29.740 --> 04:54:31.340
Lost his bearings a little bit

04:54:31.340 --> 04:54:34.780
and then ended up on top of his box over and over again.

04:54:34.780 --> 04:54:35.980
They thought having to survive

04:54:35.980 --> 04:54:38.260
for the first 30 seconds of overtime,

04:54:38.260 --> 04:54:40.780
Dorito gets enough on the reset.

04:54:40.780 --> 04:54:41.780
Barely any moves, Justin.

04:54:41.780 --> 04:54:43.340
Here he goes down the field.

04:54:43.340 --> 04:54:44.740
What's the dunk?

04:54:44.740 --> 04:54:46.060
He does Bump 1.

04:54:46.060 --> 04:54:47.780
Cheese, looking for it.

04:54:47.780 --> 04:54:49.620
Maybe Chronic there, but he loses the ball.

04:54:49.620 --> 04:54:50.620
Didn't have a ton of boost.

04:54:50.620 --> 04:54:51.980
Atomic's got nothing.

04:54:51.980 --> 04:54:54.820
Here's Dorita from A to P.

04:54:54.820 --> 04:54:57.420
Fights one defender out, but can't fight the second.

04:54:57.420 --> 04:54:58.420
Atomic, he's next up.

04:54:58.420 --> 04:54:59.620
He skips away from Chronic.

04:54:59.620 --> 04:55:01.100
Not a ton of boost here.

04:55:01.100 --> 04:55:02.260
Matta, he's top five.

04:55:02.260 --> 04:55:04.220
All length here to do what they want.

04:55:04.220 --> 04:55:05.620
They've got advantage in resources.

04:55:05.620 --> 04:55:06.980
They're winning the 50s.

04:55:06.980 --> 04:55:10.140
They can't quite come up with that quality shot

04:55:10.140 --> 04:55:10.780
opportunity.

04:55:10.780 --> 04:55:12.660
It hasn't materialized just yet,

04:55:12.660 --> 04:55:18.660
AJG's hunting for it, coming down, they're challenging, looking for a way to break through, no chance just yet.

04:55:18.660 --> 04:55:24.260
I like the flow play from Chronic, sweating the balls, sit there, in the back corner,

04:55:24.260 --> 04:55:29.260
rotate, tap a genie, do anything with it, even though they had territory on the page.

04:55:29.260 --> 04:55:34.060
Now, finally, quick to out and back to a midfield, back and forward.

04:55:34.060 --> 04:55:41.060
Critical game here, feels like a much quicker game for the European underdogs in the match.

04:55:41.060 --> 04:55:42.260
Their mental...

04:55:42.260 --> 04:55:43.260
Oh my goodness!

04:55:43.260 --> 04:55:45.860
What?! What?! What?! What?!

04:55:45.860 --> 04:55:47.460
I'm absolutely beaten!

04:55:47.460 --> 04:55:49.260
I don't wanna watch that either!

04:55:49.260 --> 04:55:50.260
What's going on?!

04:55:50.260 --> 04:55:51.660
I don't wanna watch that replay either!

04:55:51.660 --> 04:55:53.860
I don't know what in the world happened!

04:55:53.860 --> 04:55:56.460
I was just expecting the ball to go clear,

04:55:56.460 --> 04:55:58.660
then suddenly the team on goals!

04:55:58.660 --> 04:56:01.260
I got to go for him to touch that!

04:56:01.260 --> 04:56:02.460
What?!

04:56:02.460 --> 04:56:03.460
What are they doing?!

04:56:03.460 --> 04:56:06.860
I don't know, I just gotta get you cheese,

04:56:06.860 --> 04:56:08.860
I just say wrap it up, no, there's no coming back.

04:56:08.860 --> 04:56:10.460
Why are you playing another game after that?

04:56:10.460 --> 04:56:12.900
They've got to be absolutely in the bin mentally.

04:56:12.900 --> 04:56:13.740
That's insane.

04:56:13.740 --> 04:56:16.620
I can't believe what we've just witnessed.

04:56:16.620 --> 04:56:18.860
Honestly, that's the only replay I think I want to watch now

04:56:18.860 --> 04:56:19.420
when we go back.

04:56:19.420 --> 04:56:21.740
I just want to understand how in the world,

04:56:21.740 --> 04:56:23.020
Tirito, he was coming back.

04:56:23.020 --> 04:56:25.380
It was a difficult save to make.

04:56:25.380 --> 04:56:26.740
But you didn't want to just save it.

04:56:26.740 --> 04:56:28.420
You wanted to probably control the ball.

04:56:28.420 --> 04:56:30.980
Put it up and up and on the wall right?

04:56:30.980 --> 04:56:33.860
Into the backward in a way that he can follow up with.

04:56:33.860 --> 04:56:38.180
But it probably looks more awkward for this POV.

04:56:38.180 --> 04:56:40.140
We always have to remind you guys of that.

04:56:40.140 --> 04:56:43.580
But, being said, they had multiple goals at it and they couldn't get it clear.

04:56:43.580 --> 04:56:46.260
That was a nice little 1v2 play there by Cheese.

04:56:47.540 --> 04:56:51.300
And then they kick off right after, sub-foot, coming back in the game.

04:56:52.620 --> 04:56:56.940
Got their noses in front, and then it was Matai Tappa who came back, right here.

04:56:56.940 --> 04:56:58.100
This is unbelievable.

04:56:58.100 --> 04:56:59.460
Yeah, Dorito just takes his time.

04:56:59.460 --> 04:57:01.180
Don't knock it, because if he wants it.

04:57:01.180 --> 04:57:05.620
And then Atomic comes in and swabs it into the net instead of clearing it.

04:57:06.500 --> 04:57:08.260
I mean, that was a cool panic from Atomic.

04:57:08.260 --> 04:57:12.340
he sees that he knows that he like he has to get there and just pay for it.

04:57:12.340 --> 04:57:14.680
Serio has to, I mean, he's got to put that into the crossbar.

04:57:14.680 --> 04:57:17.800
Obviously, he's trying to wait for the ball to come over him so that he can get

04:57:17.800 --> 04:57:19.060
height on it when he flips.

04:57:19.260 --> 04:57:23.320
He doesn't want to just hit it back to the attacking player, but he waits too

04:57:23.320 --> 04:57:25.300
long and doesn't get the contact he wanted.

04:57:25.300 --> 04:57:29.600
He did a thing, a lot of newer players will do, which is the balls directly

04:57:29.600 --> 04:57:32.480
over your head, but your brain says, Oh, boost when you flip, cause then

04:57:32.480 --> 04:57:35.920
it will hit it harder, but you actually boost too far under the ball.

04:57:36.160 --> 04:57:37.520
And you're hitting it backwards now.

04:57:37.520 --> 04:57:40.960
So, a bit of a brain fart there by Dorito.

04:57:40.960 --> 04:57:44.960
Can't believe your luck, but all things being said,

04:57:44.960 --> 04:57:47.920
I think the better team in this 10 minutes that we've seen,

04:57:47.920 --> 04:57:50.840
or 12 minutes we've seen, Mati and Tapu look,

04:57:50.840 --> 04:57:52.640
yeah, they look shaking.

04:57:52.640 --> 04:57:55.200
I mean, before that moment, Mati and Tapu were spending

04:57:55.200 --> 04:57:57.640
how much time and overtime in the Orange half?

04:57:57.640 --> 04:57:59.360
They were dominating the midfield,

04:57:59.360 --> 04:58:01.160
but they couldn't actually generate

04:58:01.160 --> 04:58:02.840
any shots of big nicks.

04:58:02.840 --> 04:58:05.080
Yeah, exactly, like the defense was excellent

04:58:05.080 --> 04:58:06.240
from foot that whole time.

04:58:06.240 --> 04:58:22.240
I think that's been my main criticism of fit today's and giving them all away in defense a bit too much, but that was excellent in overtime slowing the game down, waiting for the backup to come with boost, ideally.

04:58:22.240 --> 04:58:27.240
But wow, I mean, an all-time blunder by Matai Tampa.

04:58:27.240 --> 04:58:40.240
One game separates them from elimination, but one game separates put from the group stage of the world championship.

04:58:40.240 --> 04:58:44.240
Justin has a pop up there.

04:58:44.240 --> 04:58:48.240
Who plays just yet? Dead ball in the corner.

04:58:48.240 --> 04:58:50.240
No boost for Justin. Brought a cut.

04:58:50.240 --> 04:58:53.760
Once the blue steal, he gets it and pops it up for Cheese.

04:58:53.760 --> 04:58:56.680
Whoops, with the whip, he was all in shape for Justin,

04:58:56.680 --> 04:58:58.240
who had an opportunity there.

04:58:58.240 --> 04:59:02.480
Cronik will go in, Cheese will go in, and Funt will score first.

04:59:02.480 --> 04:59:07.680
It just, it's just not what you want to see from Matty Taffa.

04:59:07.680 --> 04:59:11.680
Off the bench, it just looks completely out of sync.

04:59:11.680 --> 04:59:15.480
And for Funt, this is just what, perfectly, you know,

04:59:15.480 --> 04:59:19.280
they started off the tournament with the toughest matchup possible.

04:59:19.280 --> 04:59:23.280
It's actually started at favorites, but what were you getting from it?

04:59:23.280 --> 04:59:31.280
They are comfortably in control, decisively taking down the TV viewers as well by really toughen.

04:59:31.280 --> 04:59:36.280
It definitely says something when you're not necessarily playing at your best and you're still coming away to winners

04:59:36.280 --> 04:59:41.280
and still able to adjust, clean up your play, and get the job done.

04:59:41.280 --> 04:59:46.280
True in that series against TSM and even true here in this series against Matej Davos.

04:59:46.280 --> 04:59:48.940
We've got four more minutes to go through that!

04:59:48.940 --> 04:59:50.940
We almost had a second on them!

04:59:52.940 --> 04:59:56.440
It's all a lick! And it's off the post-it for Chronic!

04:59:56.440 --> 04:59:59.880
It's so tough. I mean, that takes a far absolutely finished.

04:59:59.880 --> 05:00:01.380
This is just...

05:00:01.380 --> 05:00:05.880
The most finished Obscenity 1 qual 2-0-9 to 4 minutes to go.

05:00:05.880 --> 05:00:07.880
They just don't like their heads during the game.

05:00:07.880 --> 05:00:09.880
They've got their heads in their hands.

05:00:09.880 --> 05:00:11.880
But their heads haven't been in the game for a while now.

05:00:11.880 --> 05:00:15.380
Yeah, I think you could probably make a montage of all of Atomic's different reactions

05:00:15.380 --> 05:00:18.660
after every flip goal. He's not been having a good time over there.

05:00:18.660 --> 05:00:22.060
You know, nothing wrong really with having that like a recent emotion.

05:00:22.060 --> 05:00:24.140
As long as you have a lot of practice, it doesn't matter.

05:00:24.140 --> 05:00:25.780
You see Mark Cuban do it all the time.

05:00:25.780 --> 05:00:27.780
He said, you know, the great player of all time.

05:00:27.780 --> 05:00:30.580
Yeah, he's a kid to lean back after every goal.

05:00:30.580 --> 05:00:32.380
But then he locks in again, and he refocuses.

05:00:32.380 --> 05:00:35.780
And that's what Matthew Tampa have been, you know,

05:00:35.780 --> 05:00:38.140
I think falling apart today is they've had those moments

05:00:38.140 --> 05:00:39.420
where something goes wrong.

05:00:39.420 --> 05:00:41.260
They react like something's not wrong.

05:00:41.260 --> 05:00:43.700
And then they play as if they're still thinking about that.

05:00:43.700 --> 05:00:46.800
They can't walk back and again, this consistent problem

05:00:46.800 --> 05:00:51.300
of a foot and by each team are going to completely dominate you

05:00:51.300 --> 05:00:53.300
and do it again and again.

05:00:54.900 --> 05:00:58.200
The foot got to be feeling great after what had to have felt

05:00:58.200 --> 05:00:59.800
like a really tense game for them.

05:01:00.700 --> 05:01:02.200
The series starts going long.

05:01:02.700 --> 05:01:05.400
Mati Taba has a little bit more confidence right now

05:01:05.400 --> 05:01:06.500
with a two-goal lead.

05:01:07.400 --> 05:01:08.700
Two minutes into this game.

05:01:09.100 --> 05:01:11.500
It's going to have to be Mati Taba forcing foot to feel

05:01:11.500 --> 05:01:15.500
anything but good right now as this goes down field double-tap.

05:01:15.500 --> 05:01:18.500
And then that G-spines is too easy.

05:01:18.500 --> 05:01:20.500
Yeah, it's been over.

05:01:20.500 --> 05:01:22.500
It's just the most over.

05:01:22.500 --> 05:01:25.500
I've seen a match before that should be over.

05:01:25.500 --> 05:01:28.500
We're saying we're like flatlining on the it's so over chart.

05:01:28.500 --> 05:01:31.500
We're never going to, we're never going to, we're so back.

05:01:31.500 --> 05:01:33.500
You guys sometimes, you know, you get,

05:01:33.500 --> 05:01:35.500
nearest will be asking why don't we,

05:01:35.500 --> 05:01:37.500
just why to tell them this is a cool series,

05:01:37.500 --> 05:01:39.500
but I've got the chance to get more confident in a series

05:01:39.500 --> 05:01:44.140
it really shouldn't be. I mean, Atomic is a fantastic player to reach to an energy

05:01:44.140 --> 05:01:49.100
of success in multiple regions for a reason. But right now, it's just all going wrong for them.

05:01:49.100 --> 05:01:54.540
I think that their failure is in multiple events now against, well, I'm talking about mainly

05:01:54.540 --> 05:02:03.420
eSports World Cup, last year as well. And now, here today, against VP Foot, even Stallions

05:02:03.420 --> 05:02:07.580
from Mina, you know, it's clearly gotten inside their heads a little bit.

05:02:07.580 --> 05:02:09.580
They could beat European competition.

05:02:09.580 --> 05:02:11.580
I guess that ain't Mina, not so much.

05:02:11.580 --> 05:02:17.820
Oh, Justin finally gets himself a nice little goal in this series.

05:02:17.820 --> 05:02:19.820
That's a beautiful double tap.

05:02:19.820 --> 05:02:21.820
Probably from Justin.

05:02:21.820 --> 05:02:23.820
AKG couldn't get there.

05:02:23.820 --> 05:02:25.820
Zario needed him to get there too.

05:02:25.820 --> 05:02:27.820
Never gonna read that.

05:02:27.820 --> 05:02:29.820
Yeah, I mean, how many times can we say it, this is just GGs.

05:02:29.820 --> 05:02:33.820
It's not going to be easy with that team on goal again too.

05:02:33.820 --> 05:02:36.820
And the words of one of my favorite coaches of all time.

05:02:36.820 --> 05:02:38.820
Never say never, but...

05:02:40.820 --> 05:02:42.820
Two minutes in this game left.

05:02:42.820 --> 05:02:45.820
You know, I think that reminds me of, and I don't want to draw all the attention to,

05:02:45.820 --> 05:02:47.820
oh, Dorito, you know.

05:02:47.820 --> 05:02:52.820
You're going to sacrifice a Dorito in Dusseldorf.

05:02:54.820 --> 05:02:58.820
The topic on that team as well, they're eliminated from wild card.

05:02:58.820 --> 05:03:00.820
Is that the CRR still playing with them?

05:03:00.820 --> 05:03:02.820
I don't think so.

05:03:02.820 --> 05:03:04.820
CRR would put complexity in the game.

05:03:04.820 --> 05:03:08.820
I've said it fully, but these guys, when they're having a bad day, it's a really bad day.

05:03:08.820 --> 05:03:11.820
This is not, of course, a good thing.

05:03:11.820 --> 05:03:19.820
I believe it's not the first time they've just completely hit a wall in the last step before World Finale event.

05:03:19.820 --> 05:03:22.820
They can't seem to recover mentally from it.

05:03:22.820 --> 05:03:25.820
The coach said so, and it looks to be true.

05:03:25.820 --> 05:03:36.820
update the office for not saying it's off but it wasn't too long ago that the story with the officer when we talk about the regional library

05:03:36.820 --> 05:03:46.820
like oh nice pre-jump from AJG but usually it's the European squad the European 5 to 8th seed getting the better of the higher NA seed

05:03:46.820 --> 05:03:49.780
And we're always talking about NA depth questions,

05:03:49.780 --> 05:03:51.520
I mean, granted, there's a lot of, like,

05:03:51.520 --> 05:03:54.120
chronic and just and far from, like,

05:03:54.120 --> 05:03:55.660
as far as the depth argument goes.

05:03:55.660 --> 05:03:58.720
It was a long time, successful North American players,

05:03:58.720 --> 05:04:00.600
but she's definitely, for a long time,

05:04:00.600 --> 05:04:02.200
was all that, come on.

05:04:02.200 --> 05:04:04.240
Joining this squad, but it wasn't just foot, right?

05:04:04.240 --> 05:04:06.160
It was first pro as well, getting the better of them.

05:04:06.160 --> 05:04:10.000
That's absolutely the depth one that,

05:04:10.000 --> 05:04:11.000
no doubt, lots of these times,

05:04:11.000 --> 05:04:12.440
it feels like they had a better chance

05:04:12.440 --> 05:04:15.720
of taking down, which just hasn't been their day

05:04:15.720 --> 05:04:21.260
really struggled to get anything going as even then what's not connected

05:04:21.260 --> 05:04:25.900
nothing here at the end on the attempted comeback but put strong

05:04:25.900 --> 05:04:32.940
performance from them in this series 45 second one it was indeed atomic to

05:04:32.940 --> 05:04:37.660
reach on only that similar struggle at world's wild card to start so you know

05:04:37.660 --> 05:04:41.500
we take only out of the picture but in AJG it's a similar story part of

05:04:41.500 --> 05:04:49.140
they just can't get through the best of the rest and Futs are finally getting that big

05:04:49.140 --> 05:04:50.140
land win.

05:04:50.140 --> 05:04:54.300
I'd say it's probably already a pretty decent land win, it's just interesting to have a

05:04:54.300 --> 05:05:00.020
lot of us respect now as they've put on many impressive performance but Futs have shown

05:05:00.020 --> 05:05:03.220
the science of their capability for a long time.

05:05:03.220 --> 05:05:07.980
It's absolutely brilliant to see them putting it together under the additional pressure

05:05:07.980 --> 05:05:10.980
all the world's play in, and they are going to be advancing.

05:05:10.980 --> 05:05:13.540
Mati Tapa, head and hold.

05:05:13.540 --> 05:05:16.900
And Justin, Kronik and Cheese qualifying

05:05:16.900 --> 05:05:18.860
for the World Championship.

05:05:18.860 --> 05:05:20.740
As soon as this ball touches the ground,

05:05:20.740 --> 05:05:24.860
Flood, move on into the pools.

05:05:24.860 --> 05:05:26.420
What group will they find?

05:05:26.420 --> 05:05:28.700
All I know is that Justin's back officially

05:05:28.700 --> 05:05:29.980
at a World Championship.

05:05:29.980 --> 05:05:32.020
It's just amazing to see, you know,

05:05:32.020 --> 05:05:32.860
they deserve it.

05:05:32.860 --> 05:05:34.700
They seem to have been so consistent.

05:05:34.700 --> 05:05:37.140
I think they, they might be at some sense,

05:05:37.140 --> 05:05:41.500
even in the world, it's just the competition they've gone up against in Paris at EWC.

05:05:41.500 --> 05:05:45.260
It's been tough every single time they're up against serious contenders in every single

05:05:45.260 --> 05:05:50.140
match it seems. Now they get to go against other teams who are in the bubble, look at

05:05:50.140 --> 05:05:55.980
the nation, do look like they're a level above. Futs are closer to Falcons today, and that's

05:05:55.980 --> 05:06:01.060
a tap a word to them. So, credit to foot. I think this really does prove that any

05:06:01.060 --> 05:06:05.460
depth is stronger than it's been at any point in the open era, I'd say.

05:06:05.460 --> 05:06:12.340
Maybe make a case for LA major, but that was a bit of a flash in the plan before and we were we were we were

05:06:12.860 --> 05:06:15.820
Deuced out by the European depth that season

05:06:15.820 --> 05:06:22.380
There's a little crossover between leader before the original NRG's fall off and the new teams that would come up

05:06:22.380 --> 05:06:25.900
There's there's LA majors that one event that looks like you have five teams

05:06:28.460 --> 05:06:30.460
Now any I've got five teams

05:06:30.540 --> 05:06:34.500
Everybody's got to take seriously and that's the first thing we've been able to say that in years

05:06:35.460 --> 05:06:37.460
because it seems like foot, because it seems like VP,

05:06:37.460 --> 05:06:40.460
it seems like PlayStation, and they could not step up

05:06:40.460 --> 05:06:43.460
and join in for our skillar and energy.

05:06:43.460 --> 05:06:46.460
Have you talked enough about set or do you have a different plan?

05:06:46.460 --> 05:06:49.460
Some of the crowd favorites here have made it through,

05:06:49.460 --> 05:06:53.460
and I'm with Justin. A long time, this is seven World Championships for you now.

05:06:53.460 --> 05:06:54.460
You're an old man.

05:06:54.460 --> 05:06:55.460
Oh, don't even bring it up.

05:06:55.460 --> 05:06:58.460
I'm bringing it up. I'm holding it here, so I'm alive.

05:06:58.460 --> 05:07:01.460
Yeah, it's been a while, man. You've been doing this for quite some time now.

05:07:01.460 --> 05:07:03.460
Did you still feel that excitement?

05:07:03.460 --> 05:07:07.740
You wouldn't imagine it of course. I mean with cheese on the team this guy's like as loud

05:07:07.740 --> 05:07:13.260
He has like god-tier energy like yeah, that's insane like he's an atom as well

05:07:13.260 --> 05:07:18.320
Just nice just like yelling super loud like I can't not I have to get how do you not get

05:07:19.660 --> 05:07:25.020
No, it's exciting though. I mean I've talked to some other teams about the plans and then looking at you know

05:07:25.020 --> 05:07:27.780
The groups tomorrow where is the real world starting for you and your mind?

05:07:27.780 --> 05:07:30.980
What was it because I know some teams said they don't feel like they belong here

05:07:30.980 --> 05:07:32.340
Are you in that group as well?

05:07:32.340 --> 05:07:33.340
Yeah.

05:07:33.340 --> 05:07:35.980
I think with how our season started, we took a gamble.

05:07:35.980 --> 05:07:39.380
And I think the team was built for the LCQs to make it to LCQ.

05:07:39.380 --> 05:07:42.300
So we kind of expected it.

05:07:42.300 --> 05:07:44.060
But we were low key dreading it a lot.

05:07:44.060 --> 05:07:47.180
Because we knew we should have been inmate of that, honestly.

05:07:47.180 --> 05:07:48.300
But no, we're really relieved now.

05:07:48.300 --> 05:07:48.940
We're super hyped.

05:07:48.940 --> 05:07:49.980
We're ready to play tomorrow.

05:07:49.980 --> 05:07:51.220
And we're excited.

05:07:51.220 --> 05:07:52.100
Oh, that's so.

05:07:52.100 --> 05:07:53.740
Now, I want to talk about in-game there.

05:07:53.740 --> 05:07:55.700
There were a few strange moments.

05:07:55.700 --> 05:07:57.860
One was, I think, an overtime-owned goal.

05:07:57.860 --> 05:07:58.660
Yeah.

05:07:58.660 --> 05:08:01.700
Where were the comms like for you guys for that?

05:08:01.700 --> 05:08:02.580
I was just like, oh my god.

05:08:02.580 --> 05:08:04.340
And then I was like, oh, like that.

05:08:04.340 --> 05:08:05.620
You feel for them, right?

05:08:05.620 --> 05:08:06.340
You feel the pain.

05:08:06.340 --> 05:08:09.300
That's like an iconic moment, but just in like the opposite

05:08:09.300 --> 05:08:10.300
of the wrong way.

05:08:10.300 --> 05:08:13.220
Yeah, it's going to make a top list for all those other.

05:08:13.220 --> 05:08:14.780
Not the one you've necessarily used.

05:08:14.780 --> 05:08:15.460
I feel so bad.

05:08:15.460 --> 05:08:17.540
That's always just a really bad way to lose.

05:08:17.540 --> 05:08:18.180
Yeah.

05:08:18.180 --> 05:08:19.860
For you guys, though, there's definitely

05:08:19.860 --> 05:08:21.700
just a level of relief.

05:08:21.700 --> 05:08:22.180
Thank you.

05:08:22.180 --> 05:08:24.220
And also how that game started, we were down 2-0.

05:08:24.220 --> 05:08:26.460
So making the comeback as well was just like,

05:08:26.460 --> 05:08:28.060
that was like a big game to steal from them.

05:08:28.060 --> 05:08:29.440
So it works out that happened.

05:08:29.440 --> 05:08:30.280
No, that's dope.

05:08:30.280 --> 05:08:32.080
And again, I'm loving the energy here.

05:08:32.080 --> 05:08:34.280
I put it on my own Twitter.

05:08:34.280 --> 05:08:36.180
I just ask everyone, what's your favorite team?

05:08:36.180 --> 05:08:37.560
Or who do you think is going to win?

05:08:37.560 --> 05:08:39.480
And who's the dark horse that's going to come through here?

05:08:39.480 --> 05:08:41.280
And almost every one of the replies here

05:08:41.280 --> 05:08:44.080
for the dark horse, make it a play-offs,

05:08:44.080 --> 05:08:45.480
or even just winning you guys.

05:08:45.480 --> 05:08:45.980
Really?

05:08:45.980 --> 05:08:48.080
There's a lot of fan support out there for you.

05:08:48.080 --> 05:08:49.560
I appreciate it.

05:08:49.560 --> 05:08:50.560
Yeah, at least not mine.

05:08:50.560 --> 05:08:52.680
Maybe my people are biased.

05:08:52.680 --> 05:08:54.720
But either way, you've made it to groups now.

05:08:54.720 --> 05:08:56.440
Does the game plan change it all for you guys?

05:08:56.440 --> 05:08:57.560
Or is it just kind of like, OK, same thing

05:08:57.560 --> 05:08:59.120
we did today, same thing we do tomorrow.

05:08:59.120 --> 05:09:00.560
I don't think it's really the same thing we did today.

05:09:00.560 --> 05:09:04.000
I think today was a little sloppy, to be honest, on our end.

05:09:04.000 --> 05:09:05.880
I think we're going to hit the drawing board for tonight

05:09:05.880 --> 05:09:07.840
and kind of just, you know, chill, talk about what

05:09:07.840 --> 05:09:09.960
went wrong today and then tomorrow approach it differently.

05:09:09.960 --> 05:09:12.160
But hopefully with the same ideas we had last week

05:09:12.160 --> 05:09:13.240
during boot camp.

05:09:13.240 --> 05:09:15.360
Hey, well, if you keep this up, just one by one,

05:09:15.360 --> 05:09:16.280
you can keep on winning.

05:09:16.280 --> 05:09:17.880
So we'll see how groups goes.

05:09:17.880 --> 05:09:19.000
Congratulations on the win.

05:09:19.000 --> 05:09:20.000
Thank you, Justin.

05:09:20.000 --> 05:09:20.500
Thank you.

05:09:20.500 --> 05:09:21.360
There it is.

05:09:21.360 --> 05:09:23.440
We have one more to go.

05:09:23.440 --> 05:09:25.360
And that will be the end of our play-ins here

05:09:25.360 --> 05:09:27.280
at day one of the Rocket League World Championships.

05:09:27.280 --> 05:09:29.000
please stick around if you've been here this long.

05:09:29.000 --> 05:09:30.340
Don't miss the next one.

05:09:30.340 --> 05:09:33.840
["Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy"]

05:09:53.340 --> 05:09:54.800
Keith, I want to try and experiment.

05:09:54.800 --> 05:09:55.880
All right.

05:09:55.880 --> 05:09:57.240
To help you unbecome your parents,

05:09:57.240 --> 05:09:59.040
I want you to try a game called Rocket League.

05:09:59.040 --> 05:10:01.920
Ooh, is it a puzzle, like my crossword?

05:10:01.920 --> 05:10:03.760
No, picture soccer.

05:10:03.760 --> 05:10:04.480
OK.

05:10:04.480 --> 05:10:06.040
With a car.

05:10:06.040 --> 05:10:08.320
What do I hang my feet outside the window?

05:10:08.320 --> 05:10:09.600
No, not your car.

05:10:09.600 --> 05:10:10.560
But you said think of it.

05:10:10.560 --> 05:10:11.680
It's a video game.

05:10:11.680 --> 05:10:13.280
Oh, OK, I get it.

05:10:13.280 --> 05:10:14.400
Where's the cartridge?

05:10:14.400 --> 05:10:15.760
No, it's an online thing.

05:10:15.760 --> 05:10:16.760
Is there a joystick?

05:10:16.760 --> 05:10:18.240
Not like the ones you're thinking of.

05:10:18.240 --> 05:10:19.600
But I need to get some quarters, right?

05:10:19.600 --> 05:10:20.120
No.

05:10:20.120 --> 05:10:21.520
I got to blow in the cartridge.

05:10:21.520 --> 05:10:24.560
Again, no cartridge, but you'll need a username.

05:10:24.560 --> 05:10:26.480
Username, how about Keith underscore

05:10:26.480 --> 05:10:33.280
9914 the bathroom coat it's the only number I can kind of remember easily so at

05:10:33.280 --> 05:10:38.520
Sargento we believe your breaks deserve balanced breaks taste over 70 years of

05:10:38.520 --> 05:10:42.240
family commitment to high-quality cheese and other delicious ingredients in

05:10:42.240 --> 05:10:47.000

05:10:47.000 --> 05:10:49.720
you can taste

05:10:56.480 --> 05:11:02.480
Don't hold back, galvanized.

05:11:08.480 --> 05:11:14.480
Every day, Michelin innovates to move the world forward on the road and far beyond.

05:11:14.480 --> 05:11:17.480
Michelin, Motion for Life.

05:11:17.480 --> 05:11:24.480
If the sun seems bigger when you're in Fort Worth, so does the opportunity.

05:11:24.480 --> 05:11:29.480
It's got lots of things you never dreamed it had.

05:11:29.480 --> 05:11:35.480
The old and the new together in an unexpected blend.

05:11:35.480 --> 05:11:43.480
You can do just about anything you set your mind to.

05:11:43.480 --> 05:11:48.480
Fort Worth, Texas. The Unexpected City.

05:11:54.480 --> 05:11:56.480
He has a chance to kill him. He goes to the ceiling.

05:11:56.480 --> 05:11:58.480
He's got the reset. Get the gun out of here!

05:12:54.480 --> 05:12:56.480
I

05:13:17.120 --> 05:13:19.120
Write that

05:13:24.480 --> 05:13:26.480
I

05:17:54.480 --> 05:17:59.480
Take it where it's gonna be

05:17:59.480 --> 05:18:05.480
See how I sleep, I'll scream with you again

05:18:05.480 --> 05:18:10.480
I reach for a new place, a new shape of me

05:18:10.480 --> 05:18:20.480
I'm running, I want to call the wind

05:18:20.480 --> 05:18:26.480
I feel the power in my voice, the voice reminds me of me.

05:18:38.480 --> 05:18:44.480
One match remains for the opening day of the 2026 Rocket League World Championship.

05:18:44.480 --> 05:18:48.480
But esports is through. Two North American teams survived the play-ins.

05:18:48.480 --> 05:18:55.200
and it is good again five teams doing to the group stage congratulations to

05:18:55.200 --> 05:18:58.960
North America showing up on the plane well I mean that's not the problem with

05:18:58.960 --> 05:19:01.760
North America we know the levels there for at least this much the level the real

05:19:01.760 --> 05:19:04.360
question mark is can you do it when the main event starts tomorrow

05:19:04.360 --> 05:19:08.040
hey and it's the rainy world champs man

05:19:08.040 --> 05:19:10.720
it's not the rainy world champs I was talking to Johnny earlier you know what he said

05:19:10.720 --> 05:19:12.240
he was talking about the energy of the world champs

05:19:12.240 --> 05:19:19.340
Yeah, you're the rainy world champions and hope the topia remains the most America for now

05:19:19.800 --> 05:19:24.720
But he's not budgeted with your point just stands though that we do generally the beginning of tournaments

05:19:24.720 --> 05:19:27.000
We're all like oh, it is back and then it's

05:19:29.760 --> 05:19:33.120
Team man, they're always there and then what am I mean? I mean here. It's a monkey

05:19:36.120 --> 05:19:41.100
We usually a European team eliminated we were talking about Europe. We got 16 here. Well, it's only five so

05:19:42.240 --> 05:20:01.240
I thought that series was kind of what you think I was waiting for foot to like kind of put the pedal to the metal and I think she's he opened up a little nervous but he scored five goals in a row in that series and that was absolutely she scored four I think was in game two that he scored the opener like in game three and that kind of broke everything over.

05:20:01.240 --> 05:20:06.240
I mean, listen, he was right here, he was balling out, I think Foot has been a really solid team so far.

05:20:06.240 --> 05:20:07.240
They've been a great story.

05:20:07.240 --> 05:20:10.240
Justin, he played well last year, he played even better this year.

05:20:10.240 --> 05:20:15.240
Yeah, I mean, the belief in this team, I mean, they basically threw all their points in the trash,

05:20:15.240 --> 05:20:20.240
had to start from scratch, and they still find their way back to the World Championship main event.

05:20:20.240 --> 05:20:23.240
They won the EWC last chance qualifier.

05:20:23.240 --> 05:20:26.240
This team has been such an incredible team to watch.

05:20:26.240 --> 05:20:32.560
to watch it. If you've been a fan of any broccoli, see Justin do this. I mean, I know you can see that,

05:20:32.560 --> 05:20:37.920
but then Dorito with a big error right there own goals. Give the momentum in games where you see

05:20:37.920 --> 05:20:42.800
just like a cheese. He said, I'll take the free hand. He has to want to give it to me. Yeah,

05:20:42.800 --> 05:20:46.400
she scored four in that game, but one of them was a gift for sure. And then after that,

05:20:46.400 --> 05:20:52.240
they just kept on going and then they were just pushing and a very strong team. They

05:20:52.240 --> 05:20:57.040
They absolutely dominated Mali Atapa going home after a great L. C. Q. Run.

05:20:57.040 --> 05:21:00.160
No one expected them to even be here, but that would go home early.

05:21:00.160 --> 05:21:03.360
They do go home early and already cheese and Justin improved off of last year.

05:21:03.360 --> 05:21:08.280
They played in the play in last year, I believe they did play in last year.

05:21:08.280 --> 05:21:10.320
And they all started playing this year.

05:21:10.320 --> 05:21:11.000
They get better.

05:21:11.000 --> 05:21:12.040
They make it to the main event.

05:21:12.040 --> 05:21:13.200
So big credit to them.

05:21:13.200 --> 05:21:16.160
Mali Atapa, you got work to do going into the off season, trying to figure

05:21:16.160 --> 05:21:19.800
things out, the foot East sports, big testament to them, five and eight teams

05:21:19.800 --> 05:21:21.280
in the main event is going to be good.

05:21:21.280 --> 05:21:24.740
Yeah. And that means in one of those groups, there will be two North American teams.

05:21:24.740 --> 05:21:27.920
So automatically one team is already qualified for the playoffs.

05:21:28.120 --> 05:21:29.920
One NA team. So congrats to NA.

05:21:29.920 --> 05:21:30.920
Yeah. Congratulations.

05:21:30.920 --> 05:21:31.920
Made it all the way through.

05:21:32.680 --> 05:21:33.520
Not at the top of here.

05:21:33.520 --> 05:21:35.060
They're their season end at this point.

05:21:35.060 --> 05:21:38.120
Do we just with what you saw from this roster?

05:21:38.120 --> 05:21:40.960
Obviously it was built for an LCK James, but they showed some heart

05:21:40.960 --> 05:21:42.460
through that LCK. They chose them hard here.

05:21:42.460 --> 05:21:43.840
Do you think this is a team that's going to stick?

05:21:43.840 --> 05:21:46.540
Do you think this is a team that's going to cry in the off seasons?

05:21:46.540 --> 05:21:48.540
Long are never hard to never know.

05:21:48.540 --> 05:21:54.260
But I will say it's been cool seeing AJG, you know, we've seen him so much in South America.

05:21:54.260 --> 05:21:55.980
We've competed in North America.

05:21:55.980 --> 05:21:58.340
Now we've seen him perform really well in Europe.

05:21:58.340 --> 05:22:00.940
So, you know, it's going to be interesting to see where he lands.

05:22:00.940 --> 05:22:04.980
But I think all three of those players, whether they stick or not, they're still going to be stapled in the state.

05:22:04.980 --> 05:22:06.460
I mean, my big thing is AJG.

05:22:06.460 --> 05:22:09.260
I wouldn't mind going back to Sam, where he's from, going back to Argentina

05:22:09.260 --> 05:22:11.780
and then teaming up with some of them Sam players who have kind of been

05:22:11.780 --> 05:22:13.020
Sam's been kind of on the downtrend.

05:22:13.020 --> 05:22:16.900
But back in the day, all CSX, AJG was the first player for the end.

05:22:16.900 --> 05:22:17.900
That was really bringing it back up.

05:22:17.900 --> 05:22:19.500
Wouldn't raise more than like so.

05:22:19.500 --> 05:22:20.540
It might be going back home.

05:22:20.540 --> 05:22:22.340
Might be paying big dividends for that region.

05:22:22.340 --> 05:22:23.740
Story of AJG continues.

05:22:23.740 --> 05:22:26.140
We'll see it evolve next season, folks.

05:22:26.140 --> 05:22:28.260
One match left on the day.

05:22:28.260 --> 05:22:30.980
R8 Esports taking on Bogoges.

05:22:30.980 --> 05:22:34.420
This is MENA 3, South America 3.

05:22:34.420 --> 05:22:36.580
The third team from both those regions coming up

05:22:36.580 --> 05:22:38.380
head to head and on one of them has to go home.

05:22:38.380 --> 05:22:42.140
And I will say, MENA is the new Sam.

05:22:42.140 --> 05:22:43.700
There was a time where Sam was like,

05:22:43.700 --> 05:22:44.740
oh, maybe they're going to do it.

05:22:44.740 --> 05:22:49.840
maybe they'll be this person on in a EU team to win a major with a huge thing.

05:22:49.840 --> 05:22:57.740
Well, Mina kind of stole their thunder and I will say that Mina has continued to improve this region is is a major region now.

05:22:57.740 --> 05:23:03.640
These are all contenders. Even RA, you watch them play against the Falcons who just won the Esports World Cup.

05:23:03.640 --> 05:23:09.940
They were they were hanging in there. They could have won that series had a few possessions gone differently.

05:23:09.940 --> 05:23:14.340
So I think for Sam, if they can take down Mina here,

05:23:14.340 --> 05:23:17.260
this would actually be a huge step forward for Sam,

05:23:17.260 --> 05:23:19.340
who has been on the back slide.

05:23:19.340 --> 05:23:22.780
Mina has become the new hotness here in the RLCS South America

05:23:22.780 --> 05:23:24.300
trying to take that title back.

05:23:32.540 --> 05:23:37.620
I would describe the 2026 season as the dark horse season

05:23:37.620 --> 05:23:39.740
because nobody thought that we would do something.

05:23:39.740 --> 05:23:44.620
We didn't do great at the Paris Major, but we got experience from it.

05:23:44.620 --> 05:23:47.940
We learned that we can be at the big stage, we can do our best.

05:23:47.940 --> 05:23:50.940
The World Championship is the biggest tournament

05:23:50.940 --> 05:23:54.460
because I mean every professional player wants to be a world champion

05:23:54.460 --> 05:23:56.100
and it means everything.

05:23:56.100 --> 05:23:59.500
That's everything I'm aiming for as a player.

05:23:59.500 --> 05:24:01.660
I'm proud to represent the MENA region.

05:24:01.660 --> 05:24:06.060
I want to earn a very good place because the MENA deserves it

05:24:06.060 --> 05:24:07.660
and the MENA players are so good.

05:24:07.660 --> 05:24:11.340
Our team, they give me energy that's like they want to win.

05:24:11.340 --> 05:24:13.140
They motivate me so much that I want to win.

05:24:13.140 --> 05:24:16.020
I want to win like they're energy in the game and their comps

05:24:16.020 --> 05:24:17.740
and so lucky to have them in my team.

05:24:17.740 --> 05:24:20.420
I think that Rite will prove that nothing is impossible.

05:24:25.660 --> 05:24:31.220
Once again, talking with R8 Esports and Abdullah in a qualification spot yet again.

05:24:31.220 --> 05:24:33.580
You guys were there before against Falcons.

05:24:33.580 --> 05:24:35.620
Didn't quite go your way.

05:24:35.620 --> 05:24:39.400
What are your thoughts on that match up and have you learned any lessons coming into this one?

05:24:41.100 --> 05:24:45.780
Falcons match was a bit tough, Falcons played really good and we didn't play our game

05:24:47.020 --> 05:24:53.780
But yeah Falcons were really good at that match. Exactly now. I guess coming off that match. Were you guys

05:24:54.620 --> 05:25:00.260
Worried about anything? Did you feel like something was missing or it was just in that match Falcons had it?

05:25:00.260 --> 05:25:04.660
I mean like we had some things missing but like Falcons were really great

05:25:04.660 --> 05:25:09.140
and they played really well and that's why they won.

05:25:09.140 --> 05:25:13.940
Okay, now here did you guys sit down and work through those missing things?

05:25:13.940 --> 05:25:18.660
Are you confident that now we've got it on lock now or are you trying to still figure it out?

05:25:18.660 --> 05:25:24.420
Yeah, our coach is an extort us our mistakes and we learned from them and now we're gonna win.

05:25:24.420 --> 05:25:28.180
That's okay, we're gonna win. That is a confident statement. I was going to say looking at your

05:25:28.180 --> 05:25:31.940
opponents do you think this is going to be a little bit easier than a Falcons match?

05:25:31.940 --> 05:25:33.660
I mean, no, they're a really good team.

05:25:33.660 --> 05:25:36.100
They won the last qualifier in Sam.

05:25:36.100 --> 05:25:40.220
But we learned from our mistakes, and we will win.

05:25:40.220 --> 05:25:42.460
Sure, he keeps saying, we're going to win.

05:25:42.460 --> 05:25:44.660
We'll have to find out, though, after we take a look at.

05:25:44.660 --> 05:25:47.340
It's a moment.

05:25:47.340 --> 05:25:50.220
The road to come here to the World Championship

05:25:50.220 --> 05:25:51.980
was tough for us.

05:25:51.980 --> 05:25:55.700
We were not the favorites, but we were confident,

05:25:55.700 --> 05:25:57.820
coming into it.

05:25:57.820 --> 05:26:00.900
My last man was in Lyon.

05:26:00.900 --> 05:26:11.900
Thames, that is my other teammate, his last LAN was Dusseldorf, 2023, and Knight, my other teammate last LAN was Dusseldorf, 2023, too.

05:26:11.900 --> 05:26:16.900
We have the experience and we are confident that we can do a lot of work here.

05:26:16.900 --> 05:26:23.900
The pressure playing at CQ is much bigger than playing at Regional, because if you lose, your season is over.

05:26:23.900 --> 05:26:26.980
We've trapped a lot in these two months.

05:26:26.980 --> 05:26:29.220
Like the cough dance and the mantle,

05:26:29.220 --> 05:26:32.020
I think it was the key for us to qualify.

05:26:32.020 --> 05:26:35.020
Qualifying for it was the best feeling possible.

05:26:35.020 --> 05:26:38.620
The team is trying to prove that the region is good again.

05:26:38.620 --> 05:26:41.780
For myself, I want to prove that I have the level skill,

05:26:41.780 --> 05:26:44.300
so I want to show everyone that I still have it.

05:26:48.060 --> 05:26:49.380
Well, let's see what the confidence level is here

05:26:49.380 --> 05:26:50.300
on the other side here.

05:26:50.300 --> 05:26:51.900
I'm back with Truffino again.

05:26:51.900 --> 05:26:53.540
As always, you've got a smile on your face.

05:26:53.540 --> 05:26:55.900
Even though there's a lot of pressure on this,

05:26:55.900 --> 05:26:58.900
it's do or die qualification or not.

05:26:58.900 --> 05:27:01.140
How do you maintain such a good attitude

05:27:01.140 --> 05:27:03.020
in such a high pressure situation?

05:27:03.020 --> 05:27:04.020
I don't know.

05:27:04.020 --> 05:27:05.540
I think I just love to be here.

05:27:05.540 --> 05:27:06.380
Yeah, fair enough.

05:27:06.380 --> 05:27:06.880
Hello.

05:27:06.880 --> 05:27:10.260
I love to play the game, and I love these environments.

05:27:10.260 --> 05:27:13.220
So for me, it's cool to be here, and that's all.

05:27:13.220 --> 05:27:13.980
Yeah.

05:27:13.980 --> 05:27:16.220
Honestly, that's the best attitude to have, really,

05:27:16.220 --> 05:27:18.740
is just enjoy the moment while you're in it.

05:27:18.740 --> 05:27:20.580
But obviously, once you get into the game,

05:27:20.580 --> 05:27:22.580
you're going to have to forget about being here,

05:27:22.580 --> 05:27:28.140
to lock in. For you and for the team, what I guess has been talked about, if you can talk

05:27:28.140 --> 05:27:33.620
a little bit on it, between your last matches and this one, knowing what's on the line here?

05:27:33.620 --> 05:27:39.020
I think we just need to try and control the nerves, because the first match, they were

05:27:39.020 --> 05:27:48.060
lost to VP. We were so nervous, we couldn't do what we trained to do. But against 5

05:27:48.060 --> 05:27:54.580
We managed to do it like not all but we managed to do something at least right yeah

05:27:54.740 --> 05:27:59.540
But we are coming with a confident mindset and trying to keep the nerves

05:28:00.100 --> 05:28:03.780
Low and low low low. Yeah. I mean it's hard

05:28:03.780 --> 05:28:07.820
I you're playing on the first day of world championships. I'd be nervous as well

05:28:07.820 --> 05:28:10.820
Do you feel though that like maybe after five years? Okay?

05:28:10.820 --> 05:28:16.260
Now you you guys have things on lock it's smoothed out now or maybe do you still feel a little bit of the jitters?

05:28:16.260 --> 05:28:21.620
I think we we managed well to to be here. So I think we're fine now

05:28:21.780 --> 05:28:26.460
That's good. I gotta get your last five here because I've talked it up do like his final words work

05:28:26.580 --> 05:28:31.040
We're gonna win and it was very definitive. Do you have anything to say back to that in your own defense?

05:28:31.900 --> 05:28:33.900
Good luck

05:28:34.980 --> 05:28:40.020
Hey, good luck to you there in the match. Let's get this match going. Why don't we know we're talking? Let's get to the games. Oh

05:28:41.140 --> 05:28:45.020
You're gonna win good luck not gonna roll over without a fight here and drew

05:28:45.020 --> 05:28:48.860
I mean, I love what he said there James. He's like, I just love love the game being here

05:28:48.860 --> 05:28:52.060
Yeah, and you could tell just from the way he was caring himself

05:28:53.180 --> 05:28:58.700
Talking to leave he needs it man. And that's something that you do have to appreciate. I think a lot of us here

05:28:58.700 --> 05:29:00.780
you know, we appreciate the love of the game and

05:29:02.220 --> 05:29:07.740
Yeah, and so to see Grafino coming back here doesn't have a sponsor that he's repping

05:29:08.380 --> 05:29:13.260
Playing for the region playing for himself playing for his teammates and he's loving every second of it

05:29:13.260 --> 05:29:14.820
off. It's hard not to be a thing.

05:29:14.820 --> 05:29:16.300
I mean, it is hard not to be a thing.

05:29:16.300 --> 05:29:17.220
You talk about a lovely game.

05:29:17.220 --> 05:29:19.540
We got three old veterans on the desk right here.

05:29:19.540 --> 05:29:20.620
All y'all look the game as well.

05:29:20.620 --> 05:29:21.940
That's what y'all keep doing.

05:29:21.940 --> 05:29:22.740
Doing everything.

05:29:22.740 --> 05:29:23.820
That's what I'm going to keep doing.

05:29:23.820 --> 05:29:26.780
But I mean, looking at the matchup in particular,

05:29:26.780 --> 05:29:27.900
don't mean Sam three.

05:29:27.900 --> 05:29:29.220
Trefino's got a lot of experience,

05:29:29.220 --> 05:29:32.220
but the RA boys, they've been playing really great

05:29:32.220 --> 05:29:33.580
rock league this entire season.

05:29:33.580 --> 05:29:34.300
To have.

05:29:34.300 --> 05:29:35.980
So it's going to be tough.

05:29:35.980 --> 05:29:36.780
It's going to be tough.

05:29:36.780 --> 05:29:37.900
It's going to be tough either way.

05:29:37.900 --> 05:29:39.060
Final prediction of the day, folks.

05:29:39.060 --> 05:29:41.540
Let us know who you've got in the chat, James.

05:29:41.540 --> 05:29:44.660
Bagoges on one side, all right on the other, here you go.

05:29:44.660 --> 05:29:47.380
You know, I will say in that falcon series,

05:29:47.380 --> 05:29:51.100
R8 had a lot that they were doing that look good.

05:29:51.100 --> 05:29:52.300
I don't have to give it to him here.

05:29:52.300 --> 05:29:54.900
I think Mina has been stronger than Sam.

05:29:54.900 --> 05:29:56.060
They're going to prove it again here

05:29:56.060 --> 05:29:57.500
with this matchup, give me R8.

05:29:57.500 --> 05:29:59.140
Yeah, Bagoges, they played five fears.

05:29:59.140 --> 05:30:00.420
They won all three of their games,

05:30:00.420 --> 05:30:02.700
one goal games versus five fears.

05:30:02.700 --> 05:30:03.820
The only one that series three won,

05:30:03.820 --> 05:30:05.980
not as convincing as I was hoping.

05:30:05.980 --> 05:30:07.380
So I think I have to go with R8

05:30:07.380 --> 05:30:09.300
based on game three and four versus falcons.

05:30:09.300 --> 05:30:10.140
It was very good.

05:30:10.140 --> 05:30:13.220
If they continue that, then they should win this year's.

05:30:13.220 --> 05:30:14.320
I mean, I've just been piggybacking off

05:30:14.320 --> 05:30:15.420
and giving the whole entire day.

05:30:15.420 --> 05:30:18.220
I don't have to say he really walks through the home

05:30:18.220 --> 05:30:19.220
back the whole time.

05:30:19.220 --> 05:30:21.620
They're just thinking, all right, there's a better team yet

05:30:21.620 --> 05:30:22.120
again.

05:30:22.120 --> 05:30:23.020
That's how the play is worth.

05:30:23.020 --> 05:30:24.820
The four best teams on the play

05:30:24.820 --> 05:30:26.020
are going to make the main event,

05:30:26.020 --> 05:30:27.500
and all right is one of the four.

05:30:27.500 --> 05:30:28.900
I love the attitude from Drew.

05:30:28.900 --> 05:30:31.700
He's got so much experience, but he didn't grab the mustache.

05:30:31.700 --> 05:30:33.740
Like, come on, the team name, it's a team thing.

05:30:33.740 --> 05:30:35.100
It's obviously, I do think, all right,

05:30:35.100 --> 05:30:36.340
it's going to be the champion here.

05:30:36.340 --> 05:30:37.740
So they're representing Brazil, folks.

05:30:37.740 --> 05:30:39.980
Can the Geologists get it right here?

05:30:39.980 --> 05:30:41.820
And they will get the coins prediction.

05:30:41.820 --> 05:30:43.980
Will they prove it right?

05:30:43.980 --> 05:30:46.460
And will they win it here for the region?

05:30:46.460 --> 05:30:48.980
Three teams from Mina, three teams from South America

05:30:48.980 --> 05:30:50.380
that is on the line here.

05:30:50.380 --> 05:30:50.880
Yep.

05:30:50.880 --> 05:30:52.500
And I think this is the opportunity.

05:30:52.500 --> 05:30:55.300
If Sam wants to prove that they've still got it as a region,

05:30:55.300 --> 05:30:56.620
Truffino still got that level.

05:30:56.620 --> 05:30:59.420
Well, this is a perfect matchup to prove it.

05:30:59.420 --> 05:31:00.540
Yeah, we talk about nerves.

05:31:00.540 --> 05:31:02.060
And we talk about it with Pagoges

05:31:02.060 --> 05:31:03.380
that they were a little nervous.

05:31:03.380 --> 05:31:06.700
If R8 loses that game one, we know R8's not a great land

05:31:06.700 --> 05:31:07.020
team.

05:31:07.020 --> 05:31:07.620
So it is true.

05:31:07.620 --> 05:31:08.120
True.

05:31:08.120 --> 05:31:11.800
True, absolutely. Muhammad Land Rookie or World Championship Rookie here.

05:31:11.800 --> 05:31:13.840
Can he make a difference in this moment?

05:31:13.840 --> 05:31:15.720
This is a win and in match.

05:31:15.720 --> 05:31:19.720
All right, the favorites on the desk as well as the chat of the coaches.

05:31:19.720 --> 05:31:22.520
And they're excited to be on this stage.

05:31:22.520 --> 05:31:25.840
Final match of the opening day of the Rockley World Championship

05:31:25.920 --> 05:31:26.840
comes under the coaches.

05:31:26.840 --> 05:31:28.440
First, R8 is won.

05:31:30.600 --> 05:31:32.520
So only one spot remains.

05:31:32.680 --> 05:31:34.280
Who is just taking it?

05:31:34.280 --> 05:31:35.840
We were about to find out.

05:31:35.840 --> 05:31:37.760
R8 looked incredible earlier on.

05:31:37.760 --> 05:31:40.560
Unfortunately, the red is one of the tournament favourites over in Falcons.

05:31:40.560 --> 05:31:44.040
They've got one fun opportunity, one final chance at this.

05:31:44.040 --> 05:31:45.920
Who is getting on through?

05:31:45.920 --> 05:31:47.920
Game 1 brought to you by Progressive.

05:31:49.440 --> 05:31:54.280
And with R8, they've definitely had, I think, a better look towards

05:31:54.280 --> 05:31:58.120
the quality that we're wanting to expect from these main event teams

05:31:58.120 --> 05:32:01.160
when they get to the World Championship proper.

05:32:01.160 --> 05:32:08.040
They've had a not a very romantic way of playing I don't think. I'm not going to

05:32:08.040 --> 05:32:11.160
particularly excited by what I've seen from them. I think there's a lot more that we

05:32:11.160 --> 05:32:14.480
can see but ultimately this is the last chance they are going to have to do it.

05:32:14.480 --> 05:32:21.160
It's been two different regions hitting in two different directions for quite a while now for

05:32:21.160 --> 05:32:27.200
both Mina and for South America as Mojavez. That's already got one now.

05:32:27.200 --> 05:32:34.200
This is not saying close, they're clear, it was not good enough and then Avvila, he does

05:32:34.200 --> 05:32:38.200
all of the work, just gets tapped home by Mohammed.

05:32:38.200 --> 05:32:44.200
And it's the kind of stuff you'd expect from RA Esports, they are growing up in a region,

05:32:44.200 --> 05:32:49.200
there's been dominated by the Falcons, there has had twisted minds taking down some of

05:32:49.200 --> 05:32:54.200
the tournaments there in the regionals, we look for the Saudi League as well.

05:32:54.200 --> 05:33:00.600
And they have been learning from those kind of teams and sugar the way the RA have really come to there before in this

05:33:01.340 --> 05:33:06.020
Season in particular. It's been so fun to watch to see a region properly expand

05:33:06.680 --> 05:33:08.360
Yeah, all right. I feel like

05:33:08.360 --> 05:33:15.320
It might be a bit too early in the season. There was a period of time where they were the best of me up

05:33:15.800 --> 05:33:18.520
Just the minds found their footing a lot more of this new roster

05:33:18.920 --> 05:33:22.560
Falcons have obviously got themselves back up there. Stallions have been also

05:33:22.560 --> 05:33:25.280
Also, right in the rear view mirrors,

05:33:25.280 --> 05:33:27.840
not a bit of like this tour, remember?

05:33:27.840 --> 05:33:29.760
Definitely a threat.

05:33:29.760 --> 05:33:33.360
Goodies need to try and find something

05:33:33.360 --> 05:33:34.960
to get the momentum on their side

05:33:34.960 --> 05:33:35.920
because he is in best of five

05:33:35.920 --> 05:33:37.200
and we've already seen what somebody does.

05:33:37.200 --> 05:33:39.800
He can go so long as that's off the crossbar.

05:33:42.520 --> 05:33:45.800
You're doing this, currently playing with fire.

05:33:45.800 --> 05:33:47.280
And then the fire generated from them

05:33:47.280 --> 05:33:50.240
and my helmet just removed them from the pitch.

05:33:50.240 --> 05:34:01.240
Pops it up high, the midfield is bent, removed immediately and Poccas Cal did it from RA, a reset round one, quickly waved Ashen, gets the fast centre and a nice slow play.

05:34:01.240 --> 05:34:05.240
The pace of play is being entirely dictated by RA.

05:34:05.240 --> 05:34:09.240
Oh, little work with Abdobe just fine with that.

05:34:09.240 --> 05:34:16.240
Bams drops it down, that's actually worked out very nicely, at least until his car got removed from his possession.

05:34:16.240 --> 05:34:21.840
right pass. Begode's in need to make sure that they're actually a little bit more selective

05:34:21.840 --> 05:34:25.640
although this is what's up quite nicely. Knight's looking for the buff. Oh they've almost got

05:34:25.640 --> 05:34:28.760
everybody but it was just too much blue. No way through.

05:34:28.760 --> 05:34:34.240
Halfway though, that's my helmet now into the corner. Now he just came down by Benny's.

05:34:34.240 --> 05:34:39.040
Speed again. Garth is straight up to meeting him and they're going to need to see Begode

05:34:39.040 --> 05:34:44.480
to try and steal some boosts really to make it hard for them. But Knight can be

05:34:44.480 --> 05:34:47.920
the next one to it as he strikes to draw a level.

05:34:47.920 --> 05:34:50.600
Yeah, that was just too many mistakes on a road mine.

05:34:50.600 --> 05:34:53.600
Abdullah goes off the wall, misses the ball.

05:34:53.600 --> 05:34:55.760
His teammate misses the ball, eventually.

05:34:55.760 --> 05:34:58.760
The teammate at this point is always going to punish him for that.

05:34:58.760 --> 05:35:00.760
Abdullah does have a habit of that.

05:35:00.760 --> 05:35:05.040
He's somebody that likes to use that second jump without flips so early

05:35:05.040 --> 05:35:07.640
that sometimes he sort of sails past them way.

05:35:09.480 --> 05:35:12.680
Yeah, sometimes you have to use the full one and a half second timer.

05:35:12.680 --> 05:35:14.680
He makes you a swan.

05:35:14.680 --> 05:35:16.180
So you're going to go for that.

05:35:16.180 --> 05:35:18.680
He will take the one time before it doesn't work.

05:35:18.680 --> 05:35:19.680
Just to be faster.

05:35:19.680 --> 05:35:22.680
But they're a lovely dodge from getting them.

05:35:22.680 --> 05:35:24.180
Just to clear themselves out of the way.

05:35:24.180 --> 05:35:25.180
The path of danger.

05:35:25.180 --> 05:35:26.180
Trifino.

05:35:26.180 --> 05:35:27.180
Quite deep.

05:35:27.180 --> 05:35:28.180
He's attacking player.

05:35:30.180 --> 05:35:33.680
The boost from both teams has been very stable so far.

05:35:33.680 --> 05:35:35.180
Needs having a big advantage.

05:35:35.180 --> 05:35:37.180
Trifino wanted to rip it on target.

05:35:37.180 --> 05:35:39.680
And I've dropped down straight to nine points.

05:35:39.680 --> 05:35:41.180
And in!

05:35:41.180 --> 05:35:43.180
That is beautiful.

05:35:43.180 --> 05:35:45.180
Mahame tries to catch the ball.

05:35:45.180 --> 05:35:47.180
The video takes it away.

05:35:47.180 --> 05:35:49.180
Comes it tonight.

05:35:49.180 --> 05:35:51.180
Two-one.

05:35:51.180 --> 05:35:53.180
And maybe just maybe.

05:35:53.180 --> 05:35:55.180
We have been looking

05:35:55.180 --> 05:35:57.180
beyond South America.

05:35:57.180 --> 05:35:59.180
It's up to them to continue to prove it.

05:35:59.180 --> 05:36:01.180
South America have had such good resurgence as well.

05:36:01.180 --> 05:36:03.180
In the later half of the season.

05:36:03.180 --> 05:36:05.180
There's obviously the

05:36:05.180 --> 05:36:07.180
Fury of beating NRG.

05:36:07.180 --> 05:36:09.180
Harris.

05:36:09.180 --> 05:36:17.780
Harris, it's nice to see these regions start to have a lot more players that they can rely on for these bigger results.

05:36:17.780 --> 05:36:18.480
Oh, dear.

05:36:18.480 --> 05:36:22.980
He is going to be able to take big advantage of an R8 defensive collapse.

05:36:22.980 --> 05:36:27.780
It's Abdullah again. Just bump straight into the power of Benz.

05:36:27.780 --> 05:36:32.680
Gazi's thinking, you could have given me a little bit of something to work with here.

05:36:33.780 --> 05:36:37.980
Abdullah really has been the standout for all the wrong reasons.

05:36:39.180 --> 05:36:43.060
The Go-Days, they're taking full advantage of that as well.

05:36:43.060 --> 05:36:47.060
And how my plays it very slowly, get Trio completely in.

05:36:47.060 --> 05:36:53.060
It works out sort of fine for now, but it's just a little quite awkward for their defence.

05:36:53.060 --> 05:36:57.060
And with a minute and remaining, a shot on target, from Benz!

05:36:57.060 --> 05:37:01.060
It is four of the Go-Days!

05:37:01.060 --> 05:37:04.060
I didn't see what percentage was for the vote for the chat vote.

05:37:04.060 --> 05:37:06.060
But I'm sure a lot of you let me in, Shogun,

05:37:06.060 --> 05:37:08.700
I'm thinking this might be R-Rates to just win.

05:37:08.700 --> 05:37:11.980
I think R-Rates are playing it like it's theirs just to win.

05:37:11.980 --> 05:37:15.580
Very little respect from the third man positioning.

05:37:15.580 --> 05:37:18.180
Yes, your two goals down, but he's good for it that much.

05:37:18.180 --> 05:37:19.860
That's going to be another one.

05:37:19.860 --> 05:37:22.460
And the Goanets are running away with it.

05:37:22.460 --> 05:37:24.260
How many is that now for them?

05:37:24.260 --> 05:37:25.260
Is that his third?

05:37:25.260 --> 05:37:28.260
His fourth?

05:37:28.260 --> 05:37:30.740
That's a lovely turnaround from just being here.

05:37:30.740 --> 05:37:32.820
Completely catches the fenders off guard.

05:37:32.820 --> 05:37:34.540
So used to, I think, seeing people take it up

05:37:34.540 --> 05:37:39.380
sidewall. Yeah. Which we need to take full advantage and say, well, you think we're at a sidewall, I'm just going to

05:37:39.380 --> 05:37:45.860
make it hard towards your net, lad. It still works. All this time later. So one minute, four goals. Good luck, women.

05:37:45.860 --> 05:37:51.300
Maybe three. And there immediately is that wall. Almost found it right. Brunegas has got away a bit.

05:37:53.460 --> 05:37:58.380
Or it's shot down again! What is happening? A defense! I mean, one more.

05:37:58.380 --> 05:38:05.740
go days absolutely up to their nation a fantastic offensive push from the go days

05:38:06.540 --> 05:38:10.940
and if there's a club of regards even in right let's recolour to ourselves and boys

05:38:10.940 --> 05:38:17.420
and he actually slams it into the ceiling just a little bit of a first killer against the

05:38:17.420 --> 05:38:20.420
I was wondering if we'd all at last two was going to go down.

05:38:20.420 --> 05:38:25.420
I'm a better man, I won't go there.

05:38:25.420 --> 05:38:26.420
Stumpy Goblin.

05:38:26.420 --> 05:38:27.420
I was playing for it.

05:38:27.420 --> 05:38:28.420
I was playing for it.

05:38:28.420 --> 05:38:30.420
But now we've obviously won for Brazil.

05:38:30.420 --> 05:38:32.420
We've obviously won for Brazil.

05:38:32.420 --> 05:38:34.420
We've obviously won for Brazil.

05:38:34.420 --> 05:38:35.420
Certainly on that wave 4 at...

05:38:35.420 --> 05:38:36.420
Oh, that's good.

05:38:36.420 --> 05:38:37.420
I think the ball goes to Brazil.

05:38:37.420 --> 05:38:38.420
He's going to pitch out like that.

05:38:38.420 --> 05:38:39.420
Oh, that's nice.

05:38:39.420 --> 05:38:41.420
I almost wanted the skin.

05:38:42.420 --> 05:38:43.420
Alright.

05:38:43.420 --> 05:38:46.420
And they've had this issue earlier on against Falcons.

05:38:46.420 --> 05:38:48.820
They did not start well there at all.

05:38:50.380 --> 05:38:53.460
They can't afford to start slowly yet again.

05:38:53.460 --> 05:38:54.980
Damage was done.

05:38:54.980 --> 05:38:55.820
Hulking's Falcons,

05:38:55.820 --> 05:38:58.180
the damage is more than done in game one here

05:38:58.180 --> 05:39:00.740
as we're gonna get anything for it.

05:39:01.740 --> 05:39:03.500
Time to stick to weight.

05:39:03.500 --> 05:39:07.740
And our eights just have been reminded

05:39:07.740 --> 05:39:11.060
that this tournament can be gone in 10 more minutes

05:39:11.060 --> 05:39:12.740
if they don't fix this.

05:39:13.860 --> 05:39:16.140
Yeah, both these teams are completely aware

05:39:16.140 --> 05:39:21.140
how much this series matters.

05:39:21.140 --> 05:39:23.040
One chance to make it through.

05:39:23.040 --> 05:39:24.140
Although this series is over,

05:39:24.140 --> 05:39:25.140
Gryffinia has been saying that

05:39:25.140 --> 05:39:27.140
every time we've seen his VT.

05:39:27.140 --> 05:39:31.140
Yeah, it's so, so difficult.

05:39:31.140 --> 05:39:34.140
We do got ourselves through game number one.

05:39:34.140 --> 05:39:35.140
Three goals for Bens.

05:39:35.140 --> 05:39:38.140
Three goals for Knights.

05:39:38.140 --> 05:39:40.140
Zero goals for Gryffinia.

05:39:40.140 --> 05:39:42.140
Oh, Billy Gryffinia.

05:39:42.140 --> 05:39:43.140
And Bearman as well.

05:39:43.140 --> 05:39:44.140
It was only 40 seconds,

05:39:44.140 --> 05:39:50.300
But then we saw the second half of the game, there's second half team, you know

05:39:51.540 --> 05:39:53.540
In the go-day, so I don't know what the

05:39:54.340 --> 05:39:59.540
What the vibe would be like in the team, but I think a lot of these were pretty much down to them taking full advantage

05:39:59.900 --> 05:40:02.740
Of defense there is tomorrow, right? I do think are a

05:40:03.300 --> 05:40:07.320
Cause the majority of those it was just not a heat check

05:40:07.320 --> 05:40:09.320
it was just like a slow cooker

05:40:09.320 --> 05:40:11.320
check, something like that. Yeah.

05:40:11.320 --> 05:40:13.320
And they just threw the ball into

05:40:13.320 --> 05:40:15.320
the ceiling in front of the path of somebody.

05:40:15.320 --> 05:40:17.320
I don't understand what was going on there.

05:40:17.320 --> 05:40:19.320
All right, I'll be hoping that is not something they're going to replicate.

05:40:19.320 --> 05:40:21.320
But

05:40:21.320 --> 05:40:23.320
we'll talk to each other, got to fix this.

05:40:25.320 --> 05:40:27.320
Wow, R8 looks like

05:40:27.320 --> 05:40:29.320
the team that were coming in as the favourites.

05:40:29.320 --> 05:40:31.320
Yes, a short series as well.

05:40:31.320 --> 05:40:33.320
Best of five, bear in mind, to make it through.

05:40:33.320 --> 05:40:35.320
R8 have had the

05:40:35.320 --> 05:40:40.120
the hard-to-go of things as well. I'm to go through TSM and through Falcons.

05:40:41.960 --> 05:40:45.800
Then the day, if he was in front of you and it's going to be another nearly good start

05:40:46.440 --> 05:40:51.480
for R8, Mohammed trying to give it a go. That's the heat chair. That's not a slow

05:40:51.480 --> 05:40:56.520
good way, anyway. You know every play goes up certain things. I could psycho that.

05:40:57.400 --> 05:40:58.520
You give it up for a good go.

05:40:58.520 --> 05:41:00.520
And that's Drophinio, tries to pass back.

05:41:00.520 --> 05:41:02.520
Just to pass it with the guys in here.

05:41:02.520 --> 05:41:04.520
Doesn't get the one under I don't think.

05:41:04.520 --> 05:41:08.520
And Dulla, straight over to Drophinio.

05:41:08.520 --> 05:41:10.520
Who will not care about his luck, of course, in the last game.

05:41:10.520 --> 05:41:12.520
What's so clever?

05:41:12.520 --> 05:41:15.520
Alright, Neater trying to get something early here, I feel.

05:41:15.520 --> 05:41:18.520
Just a great set of momentum. That is a great cover.

05:41:18.520 --> 05:41:20.520
No one has to expect it.

05:41:20.520 --> 05:41:22.520
Absolutely fantastic.

05:41:22.520 --> 05:41:25.520
And I mean, that's so all to try and defend.

05:41:25.520 --> 05:41:28.860
They've been given a miraculous job of keeping that one out as well.

05:41:29.860 --> 05:41:34.860
We look at the Goles now though, very low on boost and diving at everything they have to.

05:41:34.860 --> 05:41:36.520
They cannot get any space here.

05:41:36.520 --> 05:41:40.360
They might have boosted their guard tap into the middle and they'll seal their fate.

05:41:41.020 --> 05:41:44.260
Now we're on the side, instead it's going to give the Bullsgripper's over to the Goles,

05:41:44.260 --> 05:41:47.760
but Garzy is intercepting at every angle.

05:41:48.160 --> 05:41:51.360
That was on Tyga, I don't think Mahler would have had any way of getting to it.

05:41:52.160 --> 05:41:53.860
Oh, sealing pinch!

05:41:53.860 --> 05:41:59.300
As Knight makes sure that thing would be crossed far anyway, but we don't want to be taking any risks with that.

05:41:59.300 --> 05:42:04.780
As R8 looking for those demos, Slut off finding quite a few of those against Falcons earlier on.

05:42:04.780 --> 05:42:10.300
First of Coast, first touch, not the best ever man, he's got these a lot of boosts just to get that ball back under control.

05:42:11.820 --> 05:42:15.500
One round from Garny, two beaten, three beaten Knight though.

05:42:15.500 --> 05:42:18.500
Just keep it held down in that backline.

05:42:20.500 --> 05:42:23.500
And I have to do them a little bit of gartery, but a test kit around the side of the credo.

05:42:23.500 --> 05:42:26.500
And very much as we go there, they won't score until the second half.

05:42:26.500 --> 05:42:27.500
They're pure like that.

05:42:27.500 --> 05:42:31.500
Abdullah and R8 though, they have got no such concerns.

05:42:31.500 --> 05:42:34.500
They can two minutes, but finally they break the wall.

05:42:34.500 --> 05:42:38.500
They knew that play that he wanted immediately once they rolled up the wall.

05:42:39.500 --> 05:42:43.500
Tap it on, let the arch of the ceiling do the work for you.

05:42:43.500 --> 05:42:46.940
And just make sure your car is following it. One note R8s.

05:42:47.940 --> 05:42:51.980
Just one note R8s to start last time. Nothing surely that can't happen to us yet again.

05:42:52.700 --> 05:42:53.900
How do you think it does though?

05:42:54.300 --> 05:42:55.780
It'd be very funny. Very funny.

05:42:56.780 --> 05:42:58.140
It's a weird entity.

05:42:59.620 --> 05:43:04.260
I'll say it's not going to be a very weird game, a very weird eSports at times.

05:43:05.100 --> 05:43:09.540
As M's gets that out, Knight probably can't shoot from every contrapment sense.

05:43:09.540 --> 05:43:18.540
Cassey realized it, Abdullah backboards. Ben trying to avoid everything but they're not going to go for this and actually have they left us too much time for the video.

05:43:18.540 --> 05:43:21.540
And away went for the outplay. Could have gone for the 15 stares.

05:43:21.540 --> 05:43:33.540
Yeah if he does the 50 there he takes out the last defender and he can get one more shot as Abdullah uses his speed and in the air roll just to get the final devastating touch.

05:43:33.540 --> 05:43:40.140
Just there, right over the top of NICE, Dive in as the last man, used all of his boost.

05:43:40.140 --> 05:43:41.640
2-0 to Arre.

05:43:43.040 --> 05:43:44.640
That is the response.

05:43:46.040 --> 05:43:51.240
Arre and Team Ash struggled to take their online form into events.

05:43:51.240 --> 05:43:55.440
Weren't they at their best in Paris? Weren't they at their best at EWC?

05:43:56.740 --> 05:43:59.840
It has been a frequent thing for them.

05:43:59.840 --> 05:44:05.840
I saw it early on in this tournament where TSM, very very good team is TSM but yeah,

05:44:05.840 --> 05:44:08.840
alright did look like they made a lot of it.

05:44:08.840 --> 05:44:13.840
Struggled early on against Falcons, you know, alright just don't find their fault until they do

05:44:13.840 --> 05:44:16.840
and then it frustrates you because you're like why is this not happening all the time?

05:44:16.840 --> 05:44:19.840
Okay, what a save!

05:44:19.840 --> 05:44:25.840
It's still two of them, it's still two of R8 to get that ball away.

05:44:25.840 --> 05:44:30.580
I don't want something to get rid of it. Everyone's getting but no one's getting demoed

05:44:31.180 --> 05:44:36.540
Bang Abdullah back, but I would love the devil fire that touches took it away from him

05:44:38.740 --> 05:44:43.720
I'm in his chance there trust him. He checked us to take sevens up to the ceiling with him

05:44:45.660 --> 05:44:53.180
There's just now playing for the end of this game one minute 25 seconds to see the close of play to continue this game

05:44:53.180 --> 05:44:58.180
game, goes entirely on his own and beats all three.

05:44:58.180 --> 05:45:00.180
And this is all night.

05:45:00.180 --> 05:45:02.180
Who just went looking for Abdul.

05:45:02.180 --> 05:45:05.180
Abdul has got to go so much earlier than he wants to.

05:45:05.180 --> 05:45:06.180
What's about a position?

05:45:06.180 --> 05:45:09.180
Leaves the bottom left open.

05:45:09.180 --> 05:45:12.180
But Gordyce, they do not go away quietly.

05:45:12.180 --> 05:45:16.180
One goal left to try and get this back for two each.

05:45:16.180 --> 05:45:18.180
For Vigno, can he get this one back out?

05:45:18.180 --> 05:45:19.180
He certainly has.

05:45:19.180 --> 05:45:22.180
If there's one to try and go for another set,

05:45:22.180 --> 05:45:25.580
Reset this entire play and that's why, because...

05:45:26.580 --> 05:45:30.580
...Venice just tried to snatch to keep this one going, as they've lost possession.

05:45:33.080 --> 05:45:36.080
Final 60 seconds, we've seen what the Goadies can do.

05:45:36.480 --> 05:45:39.380
Popped up high, meet my fence.

05:45:39.380 --> 05:45:42.080
There's a big dive in though from two defenders.

05:45:42.380 --> 05:45:45.480
Alright, need to slow it down, they do up to the left.

05:45:45.680 --> 05:45:47.380
Keeps it away for now.

05:45:47.580 --> 05:45:50.080
The coast is chest, should've gone up before that.

05:45:50.080 --> 05:45:51.880
Nice couple of defense from Mohamed.

05:45:52.180 --> 05:45:55.100
40 seconds almost found behind his car

05:45:56.380 --> 05:45:59.220
Up to the old retals right now off the corner

05:46:00.060 --> 05:46:01.560
Play on the backboards

05:46:01.560 --> 05:46:03.560
Benz, oh that's an unbelievable power

05:46:03.560 --> 05:46:05.560
That's even better save

05:46:06.440 --> 05:46:09.440
Really picked some perfect parts and another one to be the defense

05:46:09.440 --> 05:46:12.440
But the defense stays strong

05:46:12.440 --> 05:46:15.440
He pre-champed that one during the replay of the last goal

05:46:15.440 --> 05:46:17.940
And still it was not good enough

05:46:17.940 --> 05:46:24.940
reset. I don't like these reset plays. It's just wasting the possession. Wasting time that they don't have.

05:46:24.940 --> 05:46:29.940
Slays the game down far too much. That one game passes to the gold face. Pinching very clever.

05:46:29.940 --> 05:46:34.940
That's like a senior, 9 weight central. Instead it's Beb's actually going for the 5th.

05:46:34.940 --> 05:46:35.940
Oh wait, wait, wait, wait.

05:46:35.940 --> 05:46:36.940
Hook up, hook up!

05:46:36.940 --> 05:46:39.940
Oh boy, some target into the ground!

05:46:39.940 --> 05:46:46.940
And the R8 in game number 2. It was by the skin of their teeth.

05:46:46.940 --> 05:46:50.840
But they get the game wins and draw us to a 1-1.

05:46:50.840 --> 05:46:53.940
I can tell you right now exactly what the comms were.

05:46:53.940 --> 05:46:54.940
Help me!

05:46:54.940 --> 05:46:57.340
I'm getting bumped. I need someone.

05:46:57.340 --> 05:46:59.940
Make sure this is not going into our net.

05:46:59.940 --> 05:47:00.940
Help!

05:47:01.940 --> 05:47:02.940
How good is that?

05:47:02.940 --> 05:47:07.940
If we could just like put a sticky note on the top of their monitor, it says two and a half minutes left.

05:47:07.940 --> 05:47:10.940
Give it the best team in Sintyre Tottenham.

05:47:10.940 --> 05:47:20.940
Yeah, I do wonder if we can see how good they would be if it was only the last two and a half minutes to counter because they had been so good at least in this series.

05:47:20.940 --> 05:47:28.940
I mean, R8, I think they figured themselves out a bit more in this game. They seemed a bit more like themselves. They were, again, as overwhelmed.

05:47:28.940 --> 05:47:36.940
I will say the defense was still messy. There were still big holes in it. I think they were just covering them with a bit more duct tape than in game number one.

05:47:36.940 --> 05:47:37.940
Well, it works. It works.

05:47:37.940 --> 05:47:38.940
Yeah.

05:47:38.940 --> 05:47:43.940
It's now one a piece. Quick reminder everybody that is joining us a little bit late.

05:47:43.940 --> 05:47:48.940
This is the end of the play-ins. We've already had three teams qualified for our main event.

05:47:48.940 --> 05:47:52.940
That starts tomorrow. Guess what? No real rest for any of these teams.

05:47:52.940 --> 05:47:56.940
This is our last spot between Bogodes and R8.

05:47:56.940 --> 05:48:02.940
Camino get two teams through the play-ins for South America.

05:48:02.940 --> 05:48:07.940
Gonna get a bit of a shot for a solo and send through Bogodes.

05:48:07.940 --> 05:48:09.940
Yeah, I mean NA's already got two through.

05:48:09.940 --> 05:48:12.940
NA's got a good pair of 2P, they're having a brilliant day.

05:48:12.940 --> 05:48:15.940
European team has not made it through.

05:48:16.940 --> 05:48:20.940
So if NA can do that, there's no reason why

05:48:20.940 --> 05:48:23.940
I'm able to do the exact same 2SAP,

05:48:23.940 --> 05:48:25.940
or the 2DL's better going 2M,

05:48:25.940 --> 05:48:27.940
that's what's under there from Mohamed.

05:48:27.940 --> 05:48:31.940
The star thinks stronger, thinks he needs to do the mentality here from R8

05:48:31.940 --> 05:48:34.940
because you know that Vigoda is going to be ramping up.

05:48:34.940 --> 05:48:39.940
Interesting back pass there from Trefino. Full faith in his teammates.

05:48:39.940 --> 05:48:42.940
Oh for everyone right now!

05:48:42.940 --> 05:48:46.940
It's Mohammed. Steams on through. Can't get it into the net.

05:48:46.940 --> 05:48:50.940
I don't know how he's doing a good job, but knowing when to give up...

05:48:50.940 --> 05:48:53.940
The play has all that's left!

05:48:53.940 --> 05:48:55.940
Best! Cool as you like!

05:48:55.940 --> 05:48:58.940
Ah, just get ready for it. No problem!

05:48:58.940 --> 05:49:01.940
I mean, it didn't just like smack that away either.

05:49:01.940 --> 05:49:14.520
If they close Edgewood into the reset, those boots go to the half-way line, completely nullified the offense that R8 was starting to build, and again, lovely play from him, just keeping it as close as he can.

05:49:14.520 --> 05:49:21.200
We're not the end of last game for him slowing it down, or the whole team slowing it down with these resets, but when they work, they work.

05:49:21.200 --> 05:49:25.940
Bams was screaming at the ball to get to him a little bit quicker before the demo heads.

05:49:25.940 --> 05:49:31.240
Bams, are we? I like that idea actually. You can do it to me, I can go and do it to you.

05:49:31.240 --> 05:49:38.240
Abdullah now, straight into Trefino, and how it's going to have Knight on his way. Knight takes the first challenge.

05:49:39.240 --> 05:49:41.240
So, Wandshawe's kind of straight back to R8.

05:49:43.240 --> 05:49:45.240
Series up in the balance.

05:49:45.240 --> 05:49:47.240
Great proven middle again.

05:49:47.240 --> 05:49:49.240
The good is, I've had good opportunities at times.

05:49:49.240 --> 05:49:50.240
Need that 50.

05:49:50.240 --> 05:49:53.240
We've got two players out for this. Should be a free play to Trefino.

05:49:54.240 --> 05:49:57.240
And again, I don't like the reasons because they're always challenged.

05:49:57.240 --> 05:50:02.240
It makes the follow so difficult. It makes something of that, but it could have been easier.

05:50:04.240 --> 05:50:06.240
Easy, he's not going to name it a game, either of these things.

05:50:07.240 --> 05:50:10.240
Maybe to the right of hell right now. Femme's forced a fight forward.

05:50:11.240 --> 05:50:16.240
The point is, uh, active as he essentially could be.

05:50:17.240 --> 05:50:19.240
It's a bit of this game, he's doing the first game as well.

05:50:19.240 --> 05:50:21.080
as well.

05:50:21.080 --> 05:50:23.760
Garcia resets C, they chance to go low with it,

05:50:23.760 --> 05:50:26.440
and Geofenio, he spots the danger

05:50:26.440 --> 05:50:29.840
and just throws himself for a two footed slide tackle.

05:50:29.840 --> 05:50:33.200
He knows he's the one that's got some momentum.

05:50:33.200 --> 05:50:34.160
Players on the goth line,

05:50:34.160 --> 05:50:35.760
this can have really struggled to get to that.

05:50:35.760 --> 05:50:37.000
He can just side throw.

05:50:38.320 --> 05:50:41.520
Great rotation, Knights being hassled by Mohamed.

05:50:41.520 --> 05:50:44.400
Goes for the 50, so well played there from Knights.

05:50:44.400 --> 05:50:46.440
They get sent to going, so you know that little

05:50:46.440 --> 05:50:48.520
ground pitch that the player's doing at the moment.

05:50:48.520 --> 05:50:53.320
you sort of do the little side corner, look down into the ground, he's trying to go for that,

05:50:53.320 --> 05:50:56.280
try to sneak you past the defender to give it that instant speed,

05:50:56.280 --> 05:51:00.120
so that Mohammed is going to be coming down the offensive, the ball

05:51:00.120 --> 05:51:04.600
rings back into the orange side of the pitch and then another demo, just why the target that one

05:51:04.600 --> 05:51:06.760
the bench is away from safety.

05:51:06.760 --> 05:51:08.760
That's very well produced, they had.

05:51:10.920 --> 05:51:15.080
Turns out fake in field, Abdulla wants to try and get that one back while we're in yet again.

05:51:15.080 --> 05:51:17.520
But these Bugs and Demos, one of us gonna land!

05:51:17.520 --> 05:51:18.520
Took off!

05:51:18.520 --> 05:51:20.020
That was not good enough!

05:51:21.020 --> 05:51:25.420
Somehow, the key forgets a hand to it with the tip of his fingers.

05:51:25.920 --> 05:51:30.020
Keeping this game level at 0-0, one and a half minutes to go.

05:51:31.520 --> 05:51:34.320
How much can you play a game like this?

05:51:34.320 --> 05:51:38.820
And not be thinking every single time, this could be my season.

05:51:40.820 --> 05:51:43.120
It changes you at this level.

05:51:43.120 --> 05:51:46.240
It's all about playing as close to your maximum as you can.

05:51:46.240 --> 05:51:49.440
Abdullah wants to set up Bahamir just trying to keep that play going.

05:51:49.440 --> 05:51:53.200
But Knight, over one. Straight back down.

05:51:53.200 --> 05:51:55.760
Dems can have his opportunity. He decides to just go for pure power.

05:51:56.560 --> 05:52:01.920
One minute and the nerves will be settling here as Mahamir.

05:52:01.920 --> 05:52:03.200
No one's challenging him.

05:52:03.200 --> 05:52:05.120
Everyone would have been all over that earlier on.

05:52:06.160 --> 05:52:08.400
I think he's good for Gode. He's had low on boost.

05:52:08.400 --> 05:52:10.560
They've been struggling. They were sitting here about 30 each.

05:52:10.560 --> 05:52:14.880
they can't do a full commit and in the R8 no that Muhammad's going to be there!

05:52:17.280 --> 05:52:24.320
There's R8 that plays and builds me up for a minute. Muhammad just had the read on it.

05:52:25.120 --> 05:52:30.320
I don't think Dems is really going for the intent of playing it. I think he's just trying to show

05:52:30.320 --> 05:52:35.760
we have boost. Don't come diving. Oh no you've actually you can't dive. Yeah Muhammad

05:52:35.760 --> 05:52:37.760
0 a respect for that opportunity

05:52:37.760 --> 05:52:40.200
45 seconds and the devil the next player up

05:52:42.320 --> 05:52:48.620
One chance cause it gets its central nice low again. Angela and the 1v1 does miss this flick unfortunately

05:52:49.400 --> 05:52:52.480
His boost totals though nice the unawar of anything

05:52:53.040 --> 05:52:55.840
Then starts missing the 12s and also awful odds

05:52:56.560 --> 05:53:00.020
High challenge Abdullah to try and put this one away

05:53:00.920 --> 05:53:04.160
20 seconds because it can't afford to be on the outside of the field any longer

05:53:04.160 --> 05:53:08.440
3 years going to try to make sure that doesn't happen, but Garzy removes Nite.

05:53:08.440 --> 05:53:12.640
A quick turn around, that one is wide, and they get boxed!

05:53:12.640 --> 05:53:14.000
Finally!

05:53:14.000 --> 05:53:16.480
Garzy makes it 2.

05:53:16.480 --> 05:53:21.200
And gate 3 will vote Sam and Mina 3.

05:53:21.200 --> 05:53:24.440
They will be going towards the mid-least.

05:53:24.440 --> 05:53:30.080
That demo is so, so, so good!

05:53:30.080 --> 05:53:32.920
Especially when the goalie's already got their flag locked in.

05:53:32.920 --> 05:53:36.920
I'm going to leave it for you. My team. It's clear. Where is my teammate?

05:53:39.280 --> 05:53:41.280
Oh, they're looking at my screen.

05:53:41.280 --> 05:53:42.280
Oh, no.

05:53:42.280 --> 05:53:43.280
Oh, dear.

05:53:43.280 --> 05:53:44.280
My screen opened.

05:53:44.280 --> 05:53:46.280
They're not just gone off the team play.

05:53:46.280 --> 05:53:52.280
So, all right. Five minutes away from joining Falcons in the main event.

05:53:52.280 --> 05:53:58.280
As we said, that would make it a two and two for North America and MENA.

05:53:58.280 --> 05:54:04.200
It has been excellent to watch all of these teams fight it out and to come down to these two

05:54:04.360 --> 05:54:07.200
Though we've had lots of expectations for realistically

05:54:08.600 --> 05:54:14.080
Waiting to see just what they can put forward. They're putting everything on the line season ends

05:54:14.440 --> 05:54:18.320
The go-to if you don't win in the next five minutes

05:54:20.840 --> 05:54:22.840
Everything that has to do to get to this point

05:54:24.360 --> 05:54:26.360
He's a long long season

05:54:26.360 --> 05:54:28.360
I think it's the best of five

05:54:28.360 --> 05:54:34.360
and right now it is all about remembering that money you five minutes away from being eliminated.

05:54:34.360 --> 05:54:36.360
You're ten minutes away from making it.

05:54:36.360 --> 05:54:39.360
That's the joy of these best of fives.

05:54:39.360 --> 05:54:41.360
You're so close to everything.

05:54:41.360 --> 05:54:44.360
It is very much on a knife's edge for every team in this event.

05:54:44.360 --> 05:54:46.360
Yeah, absolutely.

05:54:46.360 --> 05:54:51.360
I don't think on any given day pretty much all of these teams could have made it in some variation.

05:54:51.360 --> 05:54:53.360
You know, Falcons could have been dropped below it by R.A.

05:54:53.360 --> 05:54:55.360
Especially in a best of five.

05:54:55.360 --> 05:55:01.440
the ones that you will watch like the open qualifiers for and just go okay yeah I can see how

05:55:02.320 --> 05:55:06.720
you know it wasn't a very good series for them or this result might have gone against what I would

05:55:06.720 --> 05:55:12.240
expect you can't do that here it's the world championship there's no such thing as oh will

05:55:12.240 --> 05:55:18.320
be better next time what next time next time is next season boys that's them when we're ushering

05:55:18.320 --> 05:55:25.680
in RLCS 27. The good days are, it almost looks dejected at the moment. I kind of want a wider

05:55:25.680 --> 05:55:29.620
shot just to see, hopefully somebody's talking, obviously with a timeout maybe the coach is

05:55:29.620 --> 05:55:37.120
just yapping away. Yapping away. Okay, cut short, fine. Alright, we'll come in. Alright.

05:55:37.120 --> 05:55:43.640
I'm saying, yeah, I'll get another hat-trick. I'll get another one too. I guess I'll

05:55:43.640 --> 05:55:45.120
save it or whatever.

05:55:45.120 --> 05:55:47.120
I'm not sure if I'm going to

05:55:47.120 --> 05:55:50.120
get a goal or something. Alright,

05:55:50.120 --> 05:55:53.120
look, you look stressed. They

05:55:53.120 --> 05:55:54.120
did look at the only person

05:55:54.120 --> 05:55:56.120
who didn't look stressed today. I

05:55:56.120 --> 05:55:59.120
think was a trolley. Oh, I just

05:55:59.120 --> 05:56:01.120
haven't got the energy for

05:56:01.120 --> 05:56:03.120
being stressed. Having a little

05:56:03.120 --> 05:56:05.120
map far way through. Yeah, a

05:56:05.120 --> 05:56:06.120
little bit L, but he'll be

05:56:06.120 --> 05:56:10.120
happy for the earlier time

05:56:10.120 --> 05:56:13.120
off today. Shipping to its

05:56:13.120 --> 05:56:17.520
good to go. You don't be a Coliseum and maybe check it's field. Either way,

05:56:17.520 --> 05:56:19.920
Bagonis have got to win or they're out.

05:56:21.320 --> 05:56:26.320
Next five minutes is absolutely crucial. Garcy immediately wanted to team up

05:56:26.320 --> 05:56:28.920
with his sellers. Try and get a kickoff goal.

05:56:30.920 --> 05:56:34.520
And what can you show? What are you able to put forward?

05:56:35.720 --> 05:56:40.920
Look at Sam. Oh, realistically, because there are errors from RA on defense there.

05:56:40.920 --> 05:56:42.680
Now that hasn't stopped happening!

05:56:42.680 --> 05:56:45.840
Yeah, I'd be looking at most of these guys. I mean, they might though.

05:56:45.840 --> 05:56:47.360
Yeah, cause he check them.

05:56:47.360 --> 05:56:48.760
Just he check them.

05:56:48.760 --> 05:56:51.360
Actually, no, don't do that cause they do well against the cheques.

05:56:53.040 --> 05:56:55.040
Give me a moderate check.

05:56:55.040 --> 05:56:55.760
Look at that.

05:56:55.760 --> 05:56:56.720
Slow, keep going.

05:56:56.720 --> 05:56:57.720
Floor check.

05:56:59.040 --> 05:56:59.840
Yes.

05:56:59.840 --> 05:57:01.160
I'm not just trying to get out.

05:57:01.160 --> 05:57:03.240
This has been a consistent problem though, as my eyes...

05:57:03.240 --> 05:57:04.880
I don't have to do what I'm saying, as me stumpy.

05:57:04.880 --> 05:57:07.120
My eyes are constantly on the boost totals right now.

05:57:07.120 --> 05:57:07.800
There it is.

05:57:07.800 --> 05:57:08.320
Ooh!

05:57:08.320 --> 05:57:09.860
Well, it's been their problem right now.

05:57:09.860 --> 05:57:11.480
Trefiner's got to get back up.

05:57:11.480 --> 05:57:13.160
Doesn't exactly that.

05:57:13.160 --> 05:57:15.800
He's got a lot of boots here for go-tags on defense.

05:57:15.800 --> 05:57:19.440
Garzi in particular, he's a midfield demon.

05:57:19.440 --> 05:57:22.080
He's getting in their way so frequently.

05:57:22.080 --> 05:57:24.520
He's died near across the ceiling.

05:57:24.520 --> 05:57:27.600
Mohamed removed 9th in the equation entirely.

05:57:27.600 --> 05:57:28.920
And now we're starting to see this

05:57:28.920 --> 05:57:32.160
arborist sort of a game really takes shape.

05:57:32.160 --> 05:57:33.000
Trefiner got that one.

05:57:33.000 --> 05:57:35.840
He's going to have to use it all for it.

05:57:37.360 --> 05:57:38.200
Straight back out.

05:57:38.200 --> 05:57:45.800
to Gazi. You saved one, you've got to save another. Alright infill pass, oh they went for the 1-2!

05:57:45.800 --> 05:57:50.600
I didn't have enough communication, but I've still got another chance! That was a sit-up for a while!

05:57:50.600 --> 05:57:55.560
There was one too many, and the shot was on. They're going to give it their go. I don't hate the

05:57:55.560 --> 05:58:04.120
ambition at all. Another attempt, Mohammed! Finally! Guys, respawn please! I need the help!

05:58:04.120 --> 05:58:11.120
The longest three seconds of the go-to lives as Benz has to get a nose to it,

05:58:11.120 --> 05:58:15.880
tips it over the bar and then gets slammed the home eventually.

05:58:15.880 --> 05:58:22.320
R8 is set a couple of times before they take the game advantage.

05:58:22.320 --> 05:58:25.680
I mean, it's an entirely different class at the moment.

05:58:25.680 --> 05:58:28.280
F1 versus F3 and it's not quite because of the skill level.

05:58:28.280 --> 05:58:33.480
It's because of the pace they can play at because what, see, it's got all the boost.

05:58:33.480 --> 05:58:36.280
And look at those totals again, no one's even above 50!

05:58:36.280 --> 05:58:39.200
You go to RA, it's a wealth of them all the time!

05:58:40.200 --> 05:58:41.080
Three minutes!

05:58:41.080 --> 05:58:43.200
The Godes, the Shrens, saved their season!

05:58:44.320 --> 05:58:46.240
Godes, you can flick on DRX.

05:58:47.200 --> 05:58:50.120
Speed up a little bit, get this ball out of their half.

05:58:50.800 --> 05:58:52.840
They've not found the zone for a little while.

05:58:52.840 --> 05:58:57.360
Garthy finds a free jump in my hand and ceiling pass back to Garthy.

05:58:57.360 --> 05:58:58.480
Where's Abdullah?

05:58:58.480 --> 05:58:59.760
With the reset!

05:58:59.760 --> 05:59:00.880
There he is!

05:59:00.880 --> 05:59:06.740
But it's not last the most backhanded compliment right now for the Go-Days, their defense is

05:59:06.740 --> 05:59:10.820
excellent and they don't walk out of goal!

05:59:10.820 --> 05:59:12.320
Another huge save!

05:59:12.320 --> 05:59:14.900
They're just following saver of the season.

05:59:14.900 --> 05:59:19.820
I get it guys, it makes sense, it makes sense to maybe get a job while you're here.

05:59:19.820 --> 05:59:24.980
Jovenius gets a turn, tries to cut rotation, Abdullah knows it as well, just takes the

05:59:24.980 --> 05:59:26.980
50, it's a big win, right?

05:59:26.980 --> 05:59:29.380
Follow it and it saves!

05:59:30.380 --> 05:59:33.180
The fence on target, after that clears it away.

05:59:35.780 --> 05:59:37.480
Garzey's breaking into his own box.

05:59:37.480 --> 05:59:37.980
Oh dear!

05:59:37.980 --> 05:59:38.680
Another one!

05:59:38.680 --> 05:59:39.180
Oh no!

05:59:39.180 --> 05:59:39.680
In!

05:59:39.880 --> 05:59:43.280
Benz gets on the end of it, and that was an all night!

05:59:45.380 --> 05:59:47.180
Garzey tried for the reset,

05:59:47.780 --> 05:59:51.480
and I think he just had eyes on the ball the entire way, didn't understand

05:59:51.980 --> 05:59:55.880
that there was a player coming towards him with evil intent.

05:59:56.180 --> 05:59:56.880
One-one!

05:59:56.980 --> 06:00:00.060
And that came out of nowhere as well.

06:00:00.060 --> 06:00:05.060
Fagode's shot-closal is going to be considerably less than what R8 have put up.

06:00:05.060 --> 06:00:10.060
And yet, they all count for what, no matter how much pressure you've had.

06:00:11.060 --> 06:00:14.060
You've got to keep an eye as well on that R8 third man.

06:00:14.060 --> 06:00:18.060
To make some interesting decisions at times.

06:00:18.060 --> 06:00:22.060
One each. The big news here is Fagode's have not got to try and chase this anymore.

06:00:22.060 --> 06:00:25.060
It's not the panic. Nice pass. Can they get there?

06:00:25.060 --> 06:00:28.860
They can! Begones are not out!

06:00:29.660 --> 06:00:32.460
A seasoned saving goal potentially.

06:00:33.460 --> 06:00:36.660
And it is left to right, good night.

06:00:37.060 --> 06:00:40.860
What a pass to Walthbens. Sinks it bottom left corner.

06:00:41.660 --> 06:00:43.860
Begones not dead.

06:00:44.460 --> 06:00:48.460
Two shots, two goals. How do you like that? Maybe three!

06:00:49.060 --> 06:00:52.260
Talk about the efficiency. Begones are up by two.

06:00:52.260 --> 06:00:56.260
I can't believe how this game has turned around.

06:00:56.260 --> 06:01:01.260
A quick cut in, tonight with an even faster flick afterwards.

06:01:01.260 --> 06:01:04.260
And now they're cleared by two, only 90 seconds.

06:01:04.260 --> 06:01:08.260
And R8 must be thinking, how has this one slipped?

06:01:08.260 --> 06:01:11.260
Oh, wait a minute, wait a minute, it's back down to one!

06:01:14.260 --> 06:01:17.260
A five-goal thriller in the Coliseum.

06:01:17.260 --> 06:01:20.260
Oh, you're not entertained!

06:01:22.260 --> 06:01:28.200
South America versus Mina for that final spot and they're just throwing

06:01:28.200 --> 06:01:33.660
haymakers for good is with more goals and they've got average boost and they're

06:01:33.660 --> 06:01:38.100
still staying in this but how do they now process now they've got one goal lead

06:01:38.100 --> 06:01:43.220
I'll tell you how they approach it as they always do.

06:01:43.220 --> 06:01:51.260
The thing is the way that they're playing doesn't feel that different they are now just completely exploiting R8's defense

06:01:51.260 --> 06:01:55.260
These holds have been there. They continue to gate.

06:01:55.260 --> 06:01:59.260
And there are two goals separating these two teams.

06:01:59.260 --> 06:02:04.260
Gonna be another kickoff into the back corner as Abdullah receives it.

06:02:04.260 --> 06:02:06.260
Mohamed gets the demo on Traffinio.

06:02:06.260 --> 06:02:10.260
What? Now, an R8 gonna do.

06:02:10.260 --> 06:02:15.260
R8 have got to figure out how to get these pops and stop putting them on as time for the go-days.

06:02:15.260 --> 06:02:17.260
Little bit of time, low 50.

06:02:17.260 --> 06:02:20.260
Who's the next one? Abdullah's on the same side, he can't chase it.

06:02:20.260 --> 06:02:27.260
Both teams have got their flaws. Both teams have got unbelievable strengths.

06:02:27.260 --> 06:02:30.260
Looking for another one. Wait, OpG's trying to get here.

06:02:30.260 --> 06:02:32.260
I've done a level 100 turns over the perfect time.

06:02:32.260 --> 06:02:36.260
Looking for players and they know that. They've got to try and get away.

06:02:36.260 --> 06:02:39.260
And oh, that's not all to end up. It's still dangerous.

06:02:39.260 --> 06:02:42.260
But Benz has always, stands tall.

06:02:42.260 --> 06:02:45.260
The Hammond chance pass at 5-1. It is there.

06:02:45.260 --> 06:02:49.260
Clear the way, but yet again, Alther, the only man back to be no chance for a flick.

06:02:49.260 --> 06:02:53.260
Flick is going to be on target, he's declared away by Mohammed.

06:02:53.260 --> 06:02:57.260
Beb's up high, central only 20.

06:02:57.260 --> 06:03:02.260
It becomes new or die and right now the go-desert, do it!

06:03:02.260 --> 06:03:05.260
Infield pass, Ghazi can't get anything for it.

06:03:05.260 --> 06:03:09.260
A dollar straight down the pipe but it's still no good enough.

06:03:09.260 --> 06:03:12.260
Seven, six, champions field.

06:03:12.260 --> 06:03:18.260
Here we come in our final match to decide our final qualifier.

06:03:19.260 --> 06:03:26.540
The Go-Days have turned it on when they needed to.

06:03:26.540 --> 06:03:32.060
In a game shogun, they felt like it was gone, they felt like the boost was not going to be

06:03:32.060 --> 06:03:35.100
there for them, nothing would fall their way.

06:03:35.100 --> 06:03:38.260
And yet they turned it around and they smashed it in the end.

06:03:38.260 --> 06:03:43.580
Yeah, but one thing happened Stumpy, the clock went to 2 minutes and 30 seconds left

06:03:43.580 --> 06:03:44.580
in the game.

06:03:44.580 --> 06:03:48.420
So of course the Go-Days are going to pick it up.

06:03:48.420 --> 06:03:54.300
five champions field just everyone and I want you to just imagine you put hours

06:03:54.300 --> 06:03:58.260
after hours. I saw earlier on this is the most amount of game play going into an

06:03:58.260 --> 06:04:02.060
event for these profiles. They have put in the grinding of this watch. We are

06:04:02.060 --> 06:04:05.940
talking hundreds of thousands of hours for this.

06:04:05.940 --> 06:04:12.100
Bems drops 937. Wow. They put this thousands of hours in. Five minutes.

06:04:12.100 --> 06:04:17.420
That's the important bit right now. That's your season. It's five minutes.

06:04:17.420 --> 06:04:25.500
I think it's going to be up to the coaches to make sure that they're keeping their players

06:04:25.500 --> 06:04:27.980
with their heads on a swivel.

06:04:27.980 --> 06:04:29.460
How would you even go about coaching that?

06:04:29.460 --> 06:04:31.420
Are we seeing what, please, an awful lot?

06:04:31.420 --> 06:04:34.300
I do think I would really cry and run away.

06:04:34.300 --> 06:04:35.420
I can't deal with this pressure.

06:04:35.420 --> 06:04:39.020
Earlier on I was on the desk and I was saying I couldn't do this.

06:04:39.020 --> 06:04:41.020
But my goodness, these players can.

06:04:41.020 --> 06:04:45.300
All right, Esports versus McGonagy's, who makes it through?

06:04:45.300 --> 06:04:50.900
And when it comes to these gamefights, it is all about not making mistakes.

06:04:50.900 --> 06:04:51.660
Backbott!

06:04:51.660 --> 06:04:52.900
Garzi couldn't get there!

06:04:52.900 --> 06:04:53.620
It's off the backbottom!

06:04:53.620 --> 06:04:55.140
Get a good, available follow-up!

06:04:55.140 --> 06:04:57.780
Garzi realizes it, tries to go back for a bury.

06:04:57.780 --> 06:04:58.820
But now he's got nine!

06:04:58.820 --> 06:04:59.780
He's got options!

06:04:59.780 --> 06:05:00.620
He's got trafina!

06:05:00.620 --> 06:05:01.740
He doesn't want it!

06:05:01.740 --> 06:05:05.540
Instead decides to take the ball, but he passes it straight to Abdullah.

06:05:05.540 --> 06:05:08.980
And my immediate thought is, what's gonna happen with the boots in this game?

06:05:08.980 --> 06:05:09.580
Garzi!

06:05:11.380 --> 06:05:13.340
Just left that little bit late, Garzi!

06:05:13.340 --> 06:05:15.660
What a bit full focus, full focus even.

06:05:18.220 --> 06:05:22.100
It's just all about the moment he wants that 50, absolutely nothing, none of it.

06:05:22.860 --> 06:05:25.780
Like a seal with the ball on his hood.

06:05:27.140 --> 06:05:30.580
Just a little bit of a second, there's been utterly electric.

06:05:31.980 --> 06:05:37.780
All the way back, Giovinno tries to take another 50, does get that 50.

06:05:38.780 --> 06:05:42.780
Everything is going to be challenged, no quarter is going to be given.

06:05:43.340 --> 06:05:45.660
Benz is waiting for it. I've got to re-nice that.

06:05:45.660 --> 06:05:47.140
Pops him to the top one.

06:05:47.980 --> 06:05:50.540
No one's gonna wait around that 100.

06:05:52.620 --> 06:05:54.220
No one's trying to run out of play right now.

06:05:54.220 --> 06:05:58.540
Nobody wants to be at all responsible for a mistake.

06:05:59.420 --> 06:06:03.420
When the sheer amount of what in this lobby you have to do,

06:06:03.420 --> 06:06:05.260
you have to get there.

06:06:05.260 --> 06:06:07.420
You have to beat Garzy.

06:06:08.540 --> 06:06:10.220
And I think this is the nerve showing

06:06:10.220 --> 06:06:13.420
because they left that for so long.

06:06:13.420 --> 06:06:17.820
I feel it was sad, the goaler never thought it was relevant to that play.

06:06:17.820 --> 06:06:21.820
All right, I've got one goaler, but the time is going to keep ticking,

06:06:21.820 --> 06:06:24.820
and we know when the Goalers comes into form.

06:06:24.820 --> 06:06:28.620
They've got one minute until the Beast is unleashed.

06:06:28.620 --> 06:06:30.220
The Oat is ready.

06:06:30.220 --> 06:06:33.220
What kind of form can All right get themselves into?

06:06:33.220 --> 06:06:35.820
How many goals can they score before the Goalers...

06:06:35.820 --> 06:06:37.220
RQ!

06:06:37.220 --> 06:06:39.220
They've done it ahead of time!

06:06:40.220 --> 06:06:42.220
Take a look at this pass!

06:06:42.220 --> 06:06:46.220
And I think Abdullah just can't even believe it's over there!

06:06:46.220 --> 06:06:50.220
That's an unbelievable strike!

06:06:50.220 --> 06:06:56.220
The synergy of the Goles comes early in game number five,

06:06:56.220 --> 06:07:00.220
and they manage to sneak one pass.

06:07:00.220 --> 06:07:04.220
And all right there, less time than they thought.

06:07:04.220 --> 06:07:07.220
Or maybe the time is the exact same,

06:07:07.220 --> 06:07:12.860
and the rest of it is just that little bit better. What each? So early as well.

06:07:12.860 --> 06:07:18.020
Abdullah, wants to try and push it into the corner. There's no real opportunity

06:07:18.020 --> 06:07:22.860
available here. Abdullah on the turn. wants to try and get the read, almost had it.

06:07:22.860 --> 06:07:27.500
Knight makes sure to get there. Gazi, Abdullah is considering it, decides to

06:07:27.500 --> 06:07:31.100
get the 100 instead. Muhammad's around. He's got so many passing options.

06:07:31.100 --> 06:07:35.540
He wants to go for the low 50. Almost gets it back out there. So well read by the defense.

06:07:35.540 --> 06:07:38.840
And look at the foostos of Agode's ult, the video's got 100 now.

06:07:39.340 --> 06:07:40.840
The attempts joins the club.

06:07:41.340 --> 06:07:43.840
That 100 club is gonna be too far to swing.

06:07:43.840 --> 06:07:46.340
Oh! My goodness!

06:07:47.140 --> 06:07:49.640
And it's still not good enough.

06:07:50.140 --> 06:07:51.140
What will be?

06:07:51.440 --> 06:07:52.940
Knight goes back, boss!

06:07:52.940 --> 06:07:56.140
They tried to get rid of Garzi's car, but they couldn't try hard enough.

06:07:57.640 --> 06:07:59.740
And the haymakers keep flying.

06:07:59.740 --> 06:08:01.740
The mortars keep landing.

06:08:01.740 --> 06:08:06.620
There's RA in the goalie, they take chucks out of each other on champions field,

06:08:06.620 --> 06:08:09.260
Trafigo, his chance to work it past Mohamed.

06:08:09.260 --> 06:08:12.060
An opportunity as Antelope, their defense,

06:08:12.060 --> 06:08:15.580
then fall a little bit flat, false did, they're not able to get out of their half

06:08:15.580 --> 06:08:17.300
when they had the opportunity to.

06:08:17.300 --> 06:08:20.940
Garzi Ashi from those ball, loads of man, and I love that decision

06:08:20.940 --> 06:08:26.580
because look at where the ball ends up, right in for both days, back third.

06:08:26.580 --> 06:08:28.620
And one of those will set, another demo,

06:08:28.620 --> 06:08:29.620
Benz is out.

06:08:29.620 --> 06:08:33.620
Mohamed, ceiling, low, drop dollar and jump video.

06:08:33.620 --> 06:08:38.620
As we said so many times before, is in the way.

06:08:40.620 --> 06:08:42.620
The chance here, Garzi, off to go for a skim.

06:08:42.620 --> 06:08:45.620
It's going to be a pass, and Mohamed does jump forward.

06:08:45.620 --> 06:08:47.620
Benz stays strong on the back walk.

06:08:47.620 --> 06:08:49.620
Clear the way again by Jephenios,

06:08:49.620 --> 06:08:51.620
up to the loose ninth of the equation.

06:08:52.620 --> 06:08:54.620
Wait, it's going to be a 2-view walk.

06:08:54.620 --> 06:08:56.620
There's an opportunity, even if briefly.

06:08:56.620 --> 06:09:02.620
for those who would know these have to make Fino pass it by Snipe on target but Garthi ain't get it wrong.

06:09:02.620 --> 06:09:04.620
Knight just couldn't get them on the right angle.

06:09:04.620 --> 06:09:10.620
Mahomet with the clear. Who's available? It's Knight, clears, straight to Gravidio.

06:09:10.620 --> 06:09:12.620
Well he passes straight back though, there's just no boost.

06:09:12.620 --> 06:09:14.620
Brilliant drop down though, Garthi to receive.

06:09:14.620 --> 06:09:20.620
Now Ben, they're passing between each other. They need every single touch to be perfect.

06:09:20.620 --> 06:09:31.620
60 seconds, which cali down from hundreds of hours, just 5 minutes, just 60 little seconds for your tournament.

06:09:31.620 --> 06:09:35.620
Bent on the way, once the 50 can't get it to finish his books.

06:09:35.620 --> 06:09:41.620
Chance to compete against the absolute biggest teams in the world and that will not be go past these guys best.

06:09:41.620 --> 06:09:46.620
Woodson and Wanda Garzi, yet again, he stands firm and torn in his way.

06:09:46.620 --> 06:09:54.620
from 9 to 3, no weight and looks, opportunity is best to get a double, but they get Garzy with a save on target, it's 9!

06:09:54.620 --> 06:09:56.620
And it's a 3-bend!

06:09:58.620 --> 06:10:04.620
It was just too much! Garzy's got something! Abdullah couldn't get there!

06:10:04.620 --> 06:10:10.620
And what a time to hit the target! 30 seconds or R.A. will be eliminated.

06:10:10.620 --> 06:10:14.620
South America are not dead yet.

06:10:14.620 --> 06:10:18.620
They stay fighting as Trefino works his magic,

06:10:18.620 --> 06:10:22.620
tries to get another and then plays for any possession that they can.

06:10:22.620 --> 06:10:25.620
Going back on, Darcy, that's all good for everybody.

06:10:25.620 --> 06:10:28.620
Who can read it? Nobody on his team was feeling up to that one.

06:10:28.620 --> 06:10:30.620
Ten seconds left.

06:10:30.620 --> 06:10:34.620
One chance, an opportunity. It may well go flying

06:10:34.620 --> 06:10:37.620
and R8 need anything, something.

06:10:37.620 --> 06:10:45.100
something, the Gondes, they see zero, they see the play-ins, they see their chance of glory to the form of them.

06:10:45.820 --> 06:10:48.020
And only one touch has to happen.

06:10:48.020 --> 06:10:54.140
And as it does, the Gondes throw out our bracket.

06:10:55.140 --> 06:10:58.820
World 2026 starts with a buy.

06:11:03.940 --> 06:11:05.340
The Gondes have done it.

06:11:07.620 --> 06:11:12.620
And it was just a series where you start to believe more and more with every single minute

06:11:12.620 --> 06:11:15.620
that this could very well be on.

06:11:15.620 --> 06:11:18.620
Alright, yes you can.

06:11:18.620 --> 06:11:23.620
It's one of those tournaments, we've had three of them in our old Paris, EWC and now the World Championship

06:11:23.620 --> 06:11:27.620
where you look at them and say, you're absolutely talented.

06:11:27.620 --> 06:11:33.620
You're so, so good and you're not there yet.

06:11:33.620 --> 06:11:39.820
I think yes is the imperative word, if they will be, they will be. They absolutely will be.

06:11:39.820 --> 06:11:44.220
And opportunities like this is what brings these teams to the forefront of everybody.

06:11:44.220 --> 06:11:46.620
And so they're assuming new R8 fans in the chat.

06:11:46.620 --> 06:11:51.620
To be honest, mate, he's what's going to stand. Everyone learns to be a doctor.

06:11:51.620 --> 06:11:54.620
Uzi is in the house, and he is taking patience.

06:11:54.620 --> 06:12:02.420
10 things you don't want to see when you're trying to score a goal and guarantee you right

06:12:02.420 --> 06:12:03.420
up there is Truffinio.

06:12:03.420 --> 06:12:04.420
5 out of 100 boosts.

06:12:04.420 --> 06:12:05.420
Give me 10.

06:12:05.420 --> 06:12:06.420
Give me 10.

06:12:06.420 --> 06:12:07.420
It's still not getting over there.

06:12:07.420 --> 06:12:08.420
They're having somewhere in the way.

06:12:08.420 --> 06:12:09.420
They're going to have a quick sleep before we see them later at first to see what

06:12:09.420 --> 06:12:10.420
they're going to see to leave that.

06:12:10.420 --> 06:12:22.420
We've got some mustaches in group stage now.

06:12:22.420 --> 06:12:24.420
Truffinio congratulations.

06:12:24.420 --> 06:12:27.260
and the exciting end to that series.

06:12:27.260 --> 06:12:29.060
Yeah, it was a tough series.

06:12:29.060 --> 06:12:31.700
They are a pretty good team, that's Mina team,

06:12:31.700 --> 06:12:34.060
so it's kind of hard to play against them.

06:12:34.060 --> 06:12:37.460
Yeah, I mean, at one point I was playing in Mina ranked

06:12:37.460 --> 06:12:39.060
and even just that, it was aggressive.

06:12:39.060 --> 06:12:41.380
I can't even imagine at this level,

06:12:41.380 --> 06:12:42.260
they're always in your face

06:12:42.260 --> 06:12:43.580
and it felt like at the end there even,

06:12:43.580 --> 06:12:45.980
they had a lot of pressure and you guys broke out

06:12:45.980 --> 06:12:47.500
and then you held that momentum

06:12:47.500 --> 06:12:49.220
for the last few moments there.

06:12:49.220 --> 06:12:50.380
Did you realize that that moment,

06:12:50.380 --> 06:12:51.620
oh wait, we've got this,

06:12:51.620 --> 06:12:54.500
like they didn't feel like that was yours in those final moments.

06:12:54.500 --> 06:12:55.700
Yeah, I think so.

06:12:55.700 --> 06:13:01.140
Like we just parked the bus when we scored the goal in the game five.

06:13:01.140 --> 06:13:07.180
So we had the momentum to like they were pretty like sad.

06:13:07.180 --> 06:13:10.620
I think if the goal that we scored like out of nowhere.

06:13:10.940 --> 06:13:15.020
So, yeah, I think we got the momentum there and everything shift.

06:13:15.260 --> 06:13:18.260
Well, I was going to say sometimes you can feel it in the game that it was.

06:13:18.260 --> 06:13:20.500
Was that the moment maybe I guess that you knew you were winning

06:13:20.500 --> 06:13:22.540
or was there somewhere else early in the series

06:13:22.540 --> 06:13:23.700
that you felt confident was there,

06:13:23.700 --> 06:13:25.900
or was it kind of just that final moment?

06:13:25.900 --> 06:13:28.540
Well, I think the since game one,

06:13:28.540 --> 06:13:30.740
that we did like 6-1 against them,

06:13:30.740 --> 06:13:32.420
I think we were pretty confident.

06:13:32.420 --> 06:13:33.260
Right.

06:13:33.260 --> 06:13:34.100
Like they won two games,

06:13:34.100 --> 06:13:37.420
but we were pretty confident in what we were doing.

06:13:37.420 --> 06:13:39.580
So I think like since game one,

06:13:39.580 --> 06:13:41.940
we were, yeah, let's gonna win this.

06:13:41.940 --> 06:13:43.540
Yeah, that was great, man.

06:13:43.540 --> 06:13:45.820
And again, you said, you just love to be here.

06:13:45.820 --> 06:13:48.020
Now you get to be here a little bit longer

06:13:48.020 --> 06:13:49.140
going into the group stages.

06:13:49.140 --> 06:13:51.780
We'll find out what those are later.

06:13:51.780 --> 06:13:53.420
You know, looking at the group stages,

06:13:53.420 --> 06:13:55.420
are there any particular teams that you're actually

06:13:55.420 --> 06:13:57.400
looking forward to maybe hoping having in your group

06:13:57.400 --> 06:13:59.740
and playing just because it'll be fun?

06:14:02.420 --> 06:14:03.380
Maybe all of them?

06:14:03.380 --> 06:14:06.420
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, all the teams are good.

06:14:06.420 --> 06:14:11.100
So every team that we play, it will be a nice match.

06:14:11.100 --> 06:14:11.940
Yeah, that's awesome.

06:14:11.940 --> 06:14:14.700
Now, just at the end of the day here, obviously,

06:14:14.700 --> 06:14:16.220
this was a long day for you guys

06:14:16.220 --> 06:14:17.500
from beginning to the end.

06:14:17.500 --> 06:14:18.940
You must be exhausted.

06:14:18.940 --> 06:14:21.020
Have you gotten better over all the lands

06:14:21.020 --> 06:14:23.060
that you've attended at being able to maintain,

06:14:23.060 --> 06:14:25.620
I guess that energy pool going throughout a day?

06:14:25.620 --> 06:14:27.020
Or are you feeling exhausted?

06:14:27.020 --> 06:14:28.340
No, I'm exhausted.

06:14:28.340 --> 06:14:29.180
He's done it?

06:14:29.180 --> 06:14:30.420
Yeah, I'm exhausted.

06:14:30.420 --> 06:14:31.260
It's tiring.

06:14:31.260 --> 06:14:32.340
Yeah, it is.

06:14:32.340 --> 06:14:38.300
Like, I'm up since 7.30 AM to now playing Rocker League,

06:14:38.300 --> 06:14:42.100
screaming, communication, everything.

06:14:42.100 --> 06:14:43.700
Like, I'm always dying, bro.

06:14:43.700 --> 06:14:44.940
Yeah, this is crazy.

06:14:44.940 --> 06:14:47.140
Well, I don't really want to take much more of your time,

06:14:47.140 --> 06:14:53.000
And I want to let you go rest celebrate with your team. So I'm just gonna say drew in your congratulations

06:14:53.000 --> 06:14:58.440
And I'm happy we'll probably get to talk during groups tomorrow then. Thank you. See you tomorrow guys. That's awesome

06:14:58.440 --> 06:15:03.540
Good stuff. Hey, well, I'm gonna go over the desk because we are done for the day. That was our last matchup in the play-ins

06:15:04.180 --> 06:15:08.220
Wave I thought that was a really good way to maybe end the day so my energy

06:15:08.220 --> 06:15:11.740
I was about as good as I could have possibly gotten. I'm curious if with you

06:15:11.740 --> 06:15:13.920
I didn't tell him I wasn't asking this question

06:15:13.920 --> 06:15:16.360
I'm curious, I think you'll like this question.

06:15:16.360 --> 06:15:18.360
Like, you've interviewed a lot of winners today.

06:15:18.360 --> 06:15:19.360
Yes, I have.

06:15:19.360 --> 06:15:24.400
Has there been like, like an X factor, a through line with those players in those interviews

06:15:24.400 --> 06:15:27.760
where you're like, wow, this is the thing you're noticing that like is making the difference

06:15:27.760 --> 06:15:28.760
right now?

06:15:28.760 --> 06:15:32.040
I mean, well, it's hard because everyone at the end of an interview feels loose and

06:15:32.040 --> 06:15:34.040
happy because the relief of a win is there.

06:15:34.040 --> 06:15:38.040
But yeah, it tended to be the ones that were just kind of loose and happy to be

06:15:38.040 --> 06:15:39.040
here.

06:15:39.040 --> 06:15:40.040
I mean, we saw Justin earlier.

06:15:40.040 --> 06:15:41.040
He felt great to talk to.

06:15:41.040 --> 06:15:50.240
from the very beginning felt like he was just he just decided to play Rocket League. So I think that's the key thing. Have fun when you're playing Rocket League. It's a good time.

06:15:50.240 --> 06:15:54.720
That's it. Have fun with your interview. Rocket League players too. You know what I will. Just for you.

06:15:54.720 --> 06:16:01.680
At least I'll be talking to players all of it. A lot of fun. Thanks. I'm thinking for being here, Gibbs. Yeah. It's like it's the have fun.

06:16:01.680 --> 06:16:06.560
I accepted for you like the Falcons. So you're like we're going to win this whole tournament. We're coming serious and just dominate everyone.

06:16:06.560 --> 06:16:10.480
So it's not necessarily and again everyone's gonna be having fun for a win, but hey Corp

06:16:10.480 --> 06:16:12.320
I feel like a corporate

06:16:12.320 --> 06:16:19.400
Right, you take it pretty serious, but this was the one where I think most the matches went the way we thought throughout the day

06:16:19.560 --> 06:16:22.460
True, but then go days like seven nowhere

06:16:22.640 --> 06:16:27.680
They show up at the right that game one was huge. We were worried. Are you would be nervous?

06:16:27.720 --> 06:16:30.320
They absolutely were leaving that first game. Yeah

06:16:30.880 --> 06:16:36.120
If they did look a little nervous especially got the youngster of doula just a couple times even in game body

06:16:36.120 --> 06:16:38.520
You just look hesitant like you didn't want to make the mistake.

06:16:38.520 --> 06:16:41.120
But when you play like that, when you play too fast,

06:16:41.120 --> 06:16:42.520
the mistake ultimately happens.

06:16:42.520 --> 06:16:45.120
Even in game five, you'll see the clear

06:16:45.120 --> 06:16:46.920
into the redirect by BIMS.

06:16:46.920 --> 06:16:48.320
It shouldn't have happened, I'm telling you,

06:16:48.320 --> 06:16:49.320
he was in two different matches.

06:16:49.320 --> 06:16:51.320
I go shot, not go, ultimately end up going,

06:16:51.320 --> 06:16:53.720
but BIMS had no boost, it should never be a goal.

06:16:53.720 --> 06:16:55.320
And he didn't gain another five as well.

06:16:55.320 --> 06:16:58.320
On the game winning, game series, game clinching goal.

06:16:58.320 --> 06:17:00.320
I'm doing this a little too slow,

06:17:00.320 --> 06:17:02.920
unfortunately for them, but big win for the goal.

06:17:02.920 --> 06:17:05.120
Yeah, and just going back to the bigger picture,

06:17:05.120 --> 06:17:06.460
This is a big win for Sam.

06:17:06.460 --> 06:17:10.560
I think we've got so much time talking about how Mena is the major region.

06:17:10.760 --> 06:17:11.560
Mena is dominant.

06:17:11.560 --> 06:17:13.040
Maybe we should give Mena more spots.

06:17:13.240 --> 06:17:19.340
And then Migojase comes out here as the, you know, the Sam three seed with our

06:17:19.540 --> 06:17:24.880
and Sam has been struggling like this is a really big win for Sam to get over

06:17:24.880 --> 06:17:29.040
Mena and just I think for Trefino as well and his teammates, you know, this

06:17:29.120 --> 06:17:30.560
this is an important one.

06:17:30.560 --> 06:17:31.520
Yes, we're at the plains.

06:17:31.520 --> 06:17:31.760
Yes.

06:17:31.760 --> 06:17:33.280
The main event is whatever we're trying to get to.

06:17:33.280 --> 06:17:38.440
But even here, the play is big, big win for them against a very strong R8.

06:17:38.440 --> 06:17:41.280
I mean, look at the stats, how you lose, all right?

06:17:41.280 --> 06:17:44.920
You got 15 off of the demo, you got 71 big boostpats stolen.

06:17:44.920 --> 06:17:47.680
It's the little moments where you just, you have to play.

06:17:47.680 --> 06:17:50.400
But it was the same story against Team Falcons as well.

06:17:50.400 --> 06:17:51.640
They were landing a lot of demos.

06:17:51.640 --> 06:17:55.680
They just could not figure out how to convert off of that.

06:17:55.680 --> 06:17:58.200
They are eliminated here at the World Championship.

06:17:58.200 --> 06:18:01.000
Three teams from South America still remain.

06:18:01.000 --> 06:18:05.400
We had eight teams in our playing bracket for have been sent home for our through to

06:18:05.400 --> 06:18:07.200
our group stage that begins tomorrow.

06:18:07.200 --> 06:18:09.720
We can look at that bracket how things went again.

06:18:09.720 --> 06:18:13.680
I mean, obviously kind of the biggest I believe that we just had is maybe the close thing

06:18:13.680 --> 06:18:15.360
we had to an upset all day.

06:18:15.360 --> 06:18:17.680
Give so what you're saying things went pretty down the line.

06:18:17.680 --> 06:18:19.800
Was there any other match that really stood out to you that you feel like you've learned

06:18:19.800 --> 06:18:20.800
a lot from?

06:18:20.800 --> 06:18:23.680
I thought like money is hop on like I thought they would play a little bit

06:18:23.680 --> 06:18:25.440
better versus the NA squads.

06:18:25.440 --> 06:18:29.840
I felt like they came in just a bit flat, but credit to the North American boys

06:18:29.840 --> 06:18:31.080
both Redis pro and foot.

06:18:31.080 --> 06:18:33.240
They really look good throughout this.

06:18:33.240 --> 06:18:35.600
Obviously, foot had to play Falcons early on,

06:18:35.600 --> 06:18:38.840
but both those NA squads as your NA4 and NA5

06:18:38.840 --> 06:18:41.720
are gonna be a tough draw when we get to the group stage.

06:18:41.720 --> 06:18:44.000
As we take a look at the contenders here, Bates,

06:18:44.000 --> 06:18:46.000
we started off with so many teams,

06:18:46.000 --> 06:18:47.200
four already sent home.

06:18:47.200 --> 06:18:48.880
The great out logos have been eliminated

06:18:48.880 --> 06:18:50.680
from contention with the World Championship.

06:18:50.680 --> 06:18:53.720
And most of them are for me, Europe.

06:18:53.720 --> 06:18:55.240
They had six teams, they only got five.

06:18:55.240 --> 06:18:56.600
But those two many teams,

06:18:56.600 --> 06:18:58.800
those two many teams now, now it feels a little bit more.

06:18:58.800 --> 06:19:00.600
It is no more around me tomorrow.

06:19:00.600 --> 06:19:02.400
Woo, woo, woo, woo, we got a car.

06:19:02.400 --> 06:19:04.040
Mind you, gentlemen, you get by Tautie.

06:19:04.040 --> 06:19:05.080
You're not PNRG.

06:19:05.080 --> 06:19:06.160
I can just go through the whole list.

06:19:06.160 --> 06:19:07.640
All the big boys come to play tomorrow.

06:19:07.640 --> 06:19:09.920
Monkey Moves, I'm gonna be placed tomorrow on stream.

06:19:09.920 --> 06:19:11.160
Mom, guess he does play tomorrow on stream.

06:19:11.160 --> 06:19:14.760
Unless he plays tomorrow on Dickens Arena for the third time.

06:19:14.760 --> 06:19:15.600
Yeah.

06:19:15.600 --> 06:19:19.000
Trying to become a three-time Dickens Arena world champion.

06:19:19.000 --> 06:19:19.840
They come to play tomorrow.

06:19:19.840 --> 06:19:21.120
And not only that, it's groups.

06:19:21.120 --> 06:19:22.360
Like, you want to win your groups.

06:19:22.360 --> 06:19:24.000
You have two lives for a top four chance.

06:19:24.000 --> 06:19:27.000
If you lose even one match, that's probably done.

06:19:27.000 --> 06:19:28.940
So every single match in this home for you.

06:19:28.940 --> 06:19:29.440
Yeah.

06:19:29.440 --> 06:19:31.740
And I mean, you talk about depth in North America,

06:19:31.740 --> 06:19:34.880
I feel like as a whole, the parity that we've seen,

06:19:34.880 --> 06:19:36.960
there's so many contenders now.

06:19:36.960 --> 06:19:40.080
So many top teams that really have what it takes to win.

06:19:40.080 --> 06:19:41.120
All bets are off.

06:19:41.120 --> 06:19:43.160
We might see some crazy upsets tomorrow.

06:19:43.160 --> 06:19:43.920
We might, folks.

06:19:43.920 --> 06:19:47.080
We will let you know the groups as soon as they are set.

06:19:47.080 --> 06:19:48.640
Check out social media for that,

06:19:48.640 --> 06:19:51.680
as we will be talking about a lot on tomorrow's pre-show.

06:19:51.680 --> 06:19:53.920
So if you want to hear the full breakdown of the groups.

06:19:53.920 --> 06:19:55.240
And if you want to watch the action,

06:19:55.240 --> 06:19:56.680
which is what we all really care about,

06:19:56.680 --> 06:20:01.520
you're tuned in Brighton early tomorrow morning 10 30 a.m. Central is when the

06:20:01.520 --> 06:20:06.960
pre-show starts 11 a.m. is kickoff of that first match. Thank you so much for

06:20:06.960 --> 06:20:10.680
watching the greatest weekend and Rockin Lee has begun well we'll see you

06:20:10.680 --> 06:20:13.520
tomorrow to continue.

06:20:26.680 --> 06:20:28.680
Let's go!

06:20:33.680 --> 06:20:35.680
Let's go!

06:20:50.680 --> 06:20:52.680
Let's go!

06:21:56.680 --> 06:22:00.680
And we can't go so far together

06:22:03.680 --> 06:22:06.680
We are all alone

06:22:07.680 --> 06:22:11.680
And we can't go so far together

06:22:14.680 --> 06:22:17.680
We are all alone

06:22:18.680 --> 06:22:22.680
And we can't go so far together

06:23:22.680 --> 06:23:28.680
We can't go somewhere we can't find

06:23:28.680 --> 06:23:34.680
We are

06:23:34.680 --> 06:23:39.680
We can't go somewhere we can't find

06:24:22.680 --> 06:24:29.680
We are one

06:24:30.680 --> 06:24:34.680
And we can go so far together

06:24:36.680 --> 06:24:40.680
We are one

06:24:41.680 --> 06:24:45.680
And we can go so far together

06:24:52.680 --> 06:24:59.680
I'm sorry, I know it's so, so easy for me to fight as lovers in your eyes, running around

06:25:22.680 --> 06:25:26.680
There's a thousand enemies

06:25:26.680 --> 06:25:30.680
There's a fire that ain't nothing to do

06:25:30.680 --> 06:25:34.680
We're gonna watch them fall

06:25:34.680 --> 06:25:38.680
Because if you need a little while to cry

06:25:38.680 --> 06:25:41.680
I'll be the one you call

06:25:41.680 --> 06:25:45.680
It's alright, it's only human

06:25:45.680 --> 06:25:49.680
When the feeling overcomes

06:25:49.680 --> 06:25:54.680
Look at me like an other girl

06:25:54.680 --> 06:25:56.680
I'll be the one you call

06:25:56.680 --> 06:26:00.680
Ooh, I'm sorry, you're so human

06:26:00.680 --> 06:26:04.680
When I feel I know the right

06:26:04.680 --> 06:26:09.680
Gonna take me to the night

06:26:09.680 --> 06:26:11.680
I'll be the one you call

06:26:11.680 --> 06:26:15.680
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

06:26:15.680 --> 06:26:27.680
I'll be the one you call the water watching fire.

06:26:27.680 --> 06:26:42.680
I'll be the one you call the water watching fire.
