you
and
Oh, we don't
I love them
I'm not gonna feed you these two team-free scrims, I mean, yeah, but...
Yeah, I get it.
I've been there, I've been there going to, last night, but...
Um, risksy, I would try and balance it, and I would join a team.
You gotta join a team fast, mom.
Like the fastest way to learn.
it's gonna end the game. Com already did around the world and he put it on his shoulders!
Com getting to revenge on Luke's show. Man did that play get so much value.
Definitely felt good. Felt like rolling back.
Just getting a team that's playing competitions
or is on VLR somewhere and then people start to notice that way.
Now I'm getting more confidence going into all my clutches.
It's something everyone will have to look out for and we'll see if I can play mind games with
I think EG are pretty good. They have a lot of issues though. I feel like they try to play two structures. They're like too rigid.
And I think that's pretty bad for them. Pustle really hammer like very loose and free. We do what we want a lot of times.
Two structure than rigid. Honestly, I can get a ball to that.
Dude, that's funny. Each of the individuals keeps saying this.
Like, if I play better, we win.
If there's a chance team will pop off and go crazy? I mean, if there's a good chance of that.
EG, this is a really, really...
Have they fully said, um...
Get out of here!
Oh god, there's so much echo.
Have they confirmed, like, what role he's playing yet?
This is the biggest sport EG!
Today, they are a lost-er-ditch.
He's had questions about this.
He's a firepower, about how well they can put it together to deal with some weird pieces.
And I think they've looked good in the whole program.
That one's a keep-drying. Is that a mean thing?
But now they have to execute against a team that is going to be so chaotic,
so fire power heavy and who they've already lost it and mission number two
find demon one mission number one kill demon one
don't go to demon one avoid at all cause yeah that's that's the hidden third root
but that was a little tougher to do
it seems like there is a clear game plan at least in place
alright and their opponents for today fairly last minute changes of course with
a core roster of our ascension team so they might have to bank a lot on comfort
And then there were two two members
In the speedrun of the teams
The last time we saw our roster move this crazy this unexpected was when demon won
This time remember they they made it a drop
Like oh, that's a crazy move. Why would you get rid of PCJ? And then he was like the best thing ever for EG
This is another move that is coming in the middle of very weird circumstance
And we have to see if they actually can make it all
Roadbinds
I mean the good thing about this for demon man is
Feel like I mean obviously I have a bit of a strap but the MV are very
hitting it on the fly do a lot of stuff and so the practice would maybe not as
matter on this team as much as it would another team like the only thing I can
make up if that one chatter was true and telling the truth he's on control
which I didn't know if I'm on board with that was where the series was
I will personally just let him loose on the chamber.
Yeah, I think he is.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure he's an Astra right now.
them up and I'm like okay you're going to do that for us today. Take us home now. Yeah.
Confite them, do them. That's the way to do it. Exactly. Yeah, I can't beat them by them.
It's crazy. I mean he played Smoker on
Dealing 1 chamber.
Tram, your arm.
Loltis.
In 2023.
I did a lowest in after as well.
Or the Kessitnion. I actually like him on that roll too.
Yeah, and coming in from EG, let's see if they run the same comp.
Exact same comp that they ran last time.
That didn't work out.
He was Astra and Split as well. Yeah, that's right.
Pretty much every time that Jogamo played a race.
But will it be enough to kind of clear out every spot
He's playing with smokes on lab at the end, yeah, that isn't the best show I've known.
I'm not feeling about this. I don't know man. Doesn't feel like a crazy upgrade if they're
mixing along the roles. I thought they would just play him on hard carry. But I mean he's
He's not going to be banned.
I just don't think he'll be as impactful as he was on the C9 stand-in.
God, it keeps like freezing, man. What is this?
against and what's upon a time for you right like the foodie of today back in
with Rossi exactly
Rossi but Rossi also switches into a role going into the centi you have to
also underline for EG though they keep the same cop but they are
switching roles okay I'm gonna be playing this way leave for the team okay
EG on the fence envy with demon one on attack no stranger to that yoru we have
Ok, I was fragging on it. So can we expect the same from this Envy taking space already?
As EG do the same long and it looks like they are going to put their foot down here just from art right away and sign off on it
Double Molly's too, so that's no alarm about a middle. This is why your place so passively for EG
Ears ringing
There, that's so annoying
A little bit of help from the team there as he was very...
Nah bruh, I like so much what's going on
nice job holding the defensive side as nv continues to push forward but it's not enough it's falling flat
indigestine hit the 3k
each he was ready for that let me switch him on set all across the map again if there were
expecting for nv just to continue to be aggressive in the post plan they help
all across the map again if there were expecting for nv just to continue to be aggressive in the
post plan they help our lines I'm on YouTube now but some reason that was
lagging and this one isn't fast forwarded a little bit
I'm gonna trust up at EG on where they got a little pistol
Oh, sure, I'll keep using three kills.
I hope there's no lag anymore.
I want to say, we excite, honestly, they rotate here so fast, you're able to take the TP.
They might actually be using the Yoru like a Yoru.
We will flame them a little bit for not having a good macro.
Just look pretty good.
this works, peasant with the Guardian is able to go back and forth. Gonna keep focused on those guns in sight.
It's Andy with the Prime, thank you so much bro, thank you, thank you for that.
Hey, very very nice, I mean a little costly, but good two guns. Andy again, thank you so much for
doing that bro, thank you, thank you.
their micro against loud last week and it looked excellent in that series. Now they
want to see if we're going to be able to continue this against a team like Envy. Again, they
learned from their opening kickoff game against this very team where that aggression from
Envy kind of took over for them. For Envy's win over EG. But now so far so good. I love
how we scaled back towards that map, playing the buddy system on that retake, despite this
being an anti-landmine, I'll be doable for Envy's side because it was a very nice game
I definitely can't make too much sense of this one child, I'm not gonna lie to you.
They saved two guns, next bonus round I got a sheriff's ball, or maybe thrown over, and
and come full by as an old man, so I guess one of them is meant to trice their life.
Pretty weird buy.
He's an IGO, yeah?
I mean he can do what he wants.
It's
Oh, it's torn apart by the Superman bandit and calm does make that Odin sing
And be getting a little bit of ground in sight
And they are gonna use all the time in the world on each side to walk this one back in so they can have the right hit from every side
It looks like the glass I mean they got separate
They got all the good utile and ocean they got all the utile
They kind of want the guy who's flanking to be with the group
They aren't even considering this flank, by the way.
Nice shot.
They're very slow in this.
They're still into a bonus.
The Oden buy pays off.
react on yeah e.g. coming back and once you realize that's why he buys the order
my day yeah in case he's avoiding it did you see him at all
the audio is low sure should be high enough
individual positions though she's gave so many 1vx's and bigger e.g. to Rijie
e.g. have shown now a is closed b is closed it's gonna take more than some
sounds good now as he starts shouting yeah you can hear that one
celebrate because he gets to farm the eco's
they play for the turret as well, makes it easy, he wants to attack someone
taking a bit of damage in the same moment and that damage is finalized by
Plot is good at least but they're looking fairly strong for eG for the retake at least this time around it looks like
They want to try to push forward street little side kill their health had a look break the crosshair
But bow was able to get one it still means Envy is trying to be active on this eG
Define the rest of the members an extra looks like he might get cracked on this one
He goes to hide a singer a bucky. He's got an arsenal back there
But does he have the answer for everyone?
Yeah, it's unlucky.
Did Zing grab another one?
Dude, what a, uh, what a...
Mark, probably one of the best updates in this game was taking away Pingz.
Yeah, how hard that is with Pingz.
Pingz there, they went out.
...on the side of Demon 1, yet he still stays in and tries for a shot before he tepees out and makes it out safely.
If he actually died though, that's an outlaw left in the post plan, which would have been dangerous there for EG.
Yeah.
But thankfully here despite the damage being done for MV side on this half-buy
You're still flowing with a lot of money for EG.
Oh!
Those are the truth.
What a shot from D1.
Yeah, he had some lovely shots in this round.
Dude, he still has that sheriff.
Please, please, remember to bring him on fracture.
How do I say that one?
No sheriff shots on the lower side.
It is going to be a tie-knock.
Thank you so much, dude.
Thank you, thank you.
Lactose as well.
The prime also.
Thank you so much as well.
Who said the prime usage?
E2, thank you so much.
Absolutely.
mentioned in so many interviews in the past it's like hey i don't mind whatever team i play with
i'll make it work and whatever agent i need to play i'll make it work he makes it work here
because he brings into the firepower but then now it comes down to the preparation of stun and
his assistant coach on how do you build around now the synergy with that yes you have that firepower
but if you don't have that util that really helps out the team into these moments of chaos that's
where the opponents can really take over these things even once an envy now yeah even one played
in that week to
change the way
to be
to build things up
and hopefully it'll shine for that side for Envy this time around here but
I mean it's a big ass right now
I have the neon
the way they on this map
looks like
as well as they might change duelists around
change the set and all
who knows
really should box things up
Disappointment bill for not seeing a chamber like I like the video that has chambers face
Again, I need you to be
Selfless
If I play a neon I want the neon to be willing to go
See that's not the aim
for EG. So you have to R and E's out on the pulse clan.
Dude waiting for the flash to come when the flash never came in.
No time to enter flashing just couldn't trade him at all.
Uh, no berries, thank you so much for the 10 months as well Ranna, thank you for doing
that.
No smokes?
Yeah, they got a wall.
Supplement playing safe in the back goes for a bit of a smoke. It's a kill through three
Somehow poppin takes a pie to the face past his teammates. Oh my oh dude. No way. What up? Whoa?
He's wrecking everyone and he's saving the scene at the same time
and they are lost and this one is very nice dude you gotta give me that
you gotta give me that replay man, how's he hit that?
he's in and this guy normally is like the op carry
the clean rifle runs
one plays a chamber he plays a brim sorenastra brim sorenastra is gonna be
with the team where he's gonna have to play pulse plans but when he's playing a
chamber he's more like a rotational pick-off type of player while you need
learners that's what was one of the key components to Envy's working around the
map forcing rotates and he'll come back into a different site it was because of
inspires works now you're giving it to Rossi who's also very good in that role
or Jolis will send it the most. It's a name. You have to slide in. You get a wall, that's it.
Alright. Confirmed entry with the dimensional drift. They can seed bow on the back side.
Let's say we'll put this right on point. Easy kill. Yeah, really just going back to basics here
and using one ult to complement the other. Still push. They have a reaction for the UTIL
Very nice protocol here from the side of envy to stop it
But is it gonna be too much chaos for me G is the rest of Envy is just ready down the firing line of secret
Bring that on this one is when you got more angles like the way they're just not gonna work
You're playing weak for EG on the east side with bow's utile if he died set up
Yeah, it's really good
Back to say information of what could happen here and just get in the whole bottom of this question marks angle. It was artistic
But there's just so much space that Envy could take here in the polls plan
So they all group up towards the end. They all least try to congregate into one section that they could retake for EG
But Envy just had great counter-util on the post plan because dude damage here is big
Even the arm even taken off the arm as good as well the few off the chin a demon one there, but he still gets the kid
It means that this is a really important round especially my advice so they get one back
See where they can take the money see where they can take the gameplay
We've kind of had the death ball strategy from Envy here
and these past few rounds so they can keep their forces together.
Definitely took a Hail Mary for that round, right?
Yeah.
This is nice from Ekstra.
He's constantly pinging the floor.
He knows where to shoot the fast one,
and then he hits the fast one, and then he can disturb the rest.
Like I said, big runs.
Probably want to see these ults into it, at least,
at least demon ones ult.
drone for one bad for the defender, it normally favors the attack, I would say sometimes
comp wise you'd be okay with a 1v1 on defense, depending on your comp.
And some heat take out in this game that's the thing, it's not like, not as straightforward
as the end.
a jewel is for a smurfs on certain maps I'll take that close astral though oh boy are we
gonna have to do the uh are we gonna have to explain that again
love those shucks on this one they'll draw you off the kill drill they gotta respect
this one they do just get the plon in but that guy's the only one
get extra out we TP'd out it just got there so you go to him after all that's
pure chaos they have no idea when they cut this fight you could at least get a
half way but they have a way to look at the YouTube dashing through
now looking for my most the most baller in the round of ever seen they are arms
reach apart here as the fire starts coming through and EG finds a few kills
for themselves isn't another one trade down long kill they're not putting the
They're not getting the swings that they need here. It's all up to Gigi now. Operator there,
Pete's gonna come out, but it's not gonna be enough time. All the smoke's out.
Dude, MV held strong here, man. And the comms must've been pretty good.
But it's what comms must've been pretty good on this one.
Yeah, I feel like Rossi maybe took control of it.
Yeah, double molly, right? And could've seen them off this way.
The delay was so long, yeah.
So had Ashless at the end.
Yeah.
I just kind of felt like false pressure.
You know, you are coming back into the side, but you're not.
Demon Glazer!
Demon one Glazer.
He never misses a...
Never misses a Demon one game.
Thank you so much, bro.
I appreciate that.
Yeah, I can do this.
Have your on eG side as they have this lower body. Okay, thank you so much for doing that
Thank you times. Oh lovely little combo. It looks a little low though. That's right. It was so nice
But I got the rest of the team trade back. I don't feel like I'm watching this effect
Do you look at this or is this chaos?
Back to get a kill and there are
I keep an eye on Rossi, but it does not mean Rossi's not going for it. We're still trying to gain space
So figure stuff out while the plant goes down. It should go really late. Here's the running of the kill drone
I'm not sure.
Yeah, well, she did a good job of not actually showing to that as well.
Oh, my.
They love these shots.
I meant the game looks so easy right then.
There's all pre-am.
the dimensional draft and they snuffed that I'm not even sure you have to move his mouth
on both of those channels. We were talking about EG7, I think we have a little bit of
that. My shirt would just have a turn left without you know flicking towards our right
sides are really clear both extremities. Kessit found that perfect timing. You take
down calm, mountaineer open. And then the crossfire to bring immense value to the parts
here. Alka that alert coming out here from Rossi. There you go, you see how that was
keyboard aimer sick
Why did he tiny for the euro was behind him
Great coverage
the fight with the chaos against Envy which was something that they also wanted to explore
going into Loud, going into that close fight. It's about to be cleaned up here by Stunner
after his calls. Because that's what? Three plants in a row since a timeout? Three of
them won by the side of Envy.
See where they go from this. It does seem to kind of allow Okianos kind of extremity
control and deny him going down in the same situation, but still Digi being hard on these
lines going for the operator being the main focus of kind of the defense you
could keep it relatively simple again demon one attack
so we'll see if okay you can get himself going here looks like he might be backed
up by the drone this time through an art
well dude he might like this they give him a lot of freedom and he's allowed to
buy attack off try to find some value again with the um
i thought he was gonna move up a lot more where he found some value with the
phantom before but he'll stay posted at four bit as you hear the drone you're
you're re-cleared towards arc for EG, there's a little bit of a stalemate but the ult comes
up right away for Excerpt to find the early information, and it would make a lot better
if you put a few rosé in there but not too many.
It's nice watching MD man, after watching EMEA, just simple, simple calls dude, just
let's go pick up the orb while ult site, we hit the site.
EMEA, we're just trying to play like, oh we're two, like we're one away from an orb, they're
I'm going to be fighting it. Let's go through the middle, then fake it, then go back and get the orb.
Bro, just pick up an orb.
Get an orb.
Nice. Look how easy that is.
just to send EG for a loop.
And Team In One had an op in the back, by the way, on Main.
Still up, and still Team In One.
It's going to be a save for EG as they cruise out to the left side of the map here.
And Envy, this was a 5-1 game.
It's not going to be a 5-4 game.
Correct.
Yeah, again, after that time up from Envy,
and they started having these ult cycles coming on their side too,
they were able to take full advantage of it.
Even cancelling out the big ult round that EG had before on that lockdown
and Astra cosmic divide on that B site.
So that means now for Envy they're they're definitely on the driver's seat for this half
Now I like to see EG maybe try to change things a little bit more now when it comes out of these chaotic rounds
Because again, you will see EMEA teams not ban
Pal, Santiago
The problem is EMEA teams will think they're good at it because they're being other EMEA teams on Pal
I mean they'll be like oh, we can play this map and then they'll play the map and get worked
We'll have D1, she's devastated in the war. Let's go.
As D1 just sits back and sips a mojito in a vein for that round.
But you saw how that changed towards that fight on that pit, instead of the piss round of course.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like we said, fall some down to nature.
Stop the save done.
And EG gets all their angles broken trying to fight back into the A site pit.
Now it's a big round that EG could maybe take into their advantage because they have this whaley ult.
It's actually Okinawa is using the mini-off with the Guardian looking down the line aggressively actually for info
Which allows now EG to focus a little bit more on the crossbar into getting information on middle
That's patience now
Thanks, there's probably not going unless he has some utile. They're waiting for each other here to make a move
I'm laughing that just I swing in these showing a lot of pressure in the beginning of the rounds before now
It's gonna be very patient to make people second gasp. It's actually gonna happen. I'm lucky
Flash is coming through shots going a little wayward for a moment there
But it is gonna be Envy trying to push through our here. You're gonna have to make a decision
Not enough to stop EG's defense
I thought O2 was gonna run down there as he only had the accordion inside that smoke
He makes it work
It was going for a few rounds but EG stopped the bleeding there.
You see the practice coming in for EG.
As they looked that they were going to align themselves to even one,
and they just came back and said,
wait guys, we have to think about the fundamentals.
3-2-1 a wide swing, and then finally they break across our placement,
and we even flat-alive our old'em.
And that definitely surprised Envy when they tried to double run through that smoke.
Nice reposition coming out from Okeanos.
That was the one against McHale.
the kill man they're getting good values with with the bandits in the pistols
remember to come in at the beginning of that half all the way towards that back
to that B site
hahahaha
taste of your own medicine right
six to four here two one ounce
look at them go
this half could go either way with the buys coming through
and EG keeps that up
and V maybe just keeping it simple again
not all the way from two or something that's gonna get Astro into the same round
they did earlier right worked earlier the comms are pretty good they won the
round in the after plan with less to go up against yeah
did you lost him on top of this I'll do that's a double whether he's hardly been
on that left side actually towards the screen the box has been back off so
always switching it up as the site it comes in cause a divide for safety but
how safe is the question come already getting one swings through the walls
to be found very quick there just not stopping EG biting down on this Kaisen
because we're divided right away yeah maybe a little bit too readable there
from EG I'm old yeah I was questioning here and you running down from that plant
especially when they lost their player but it's popping trying to go for that
plan you already had behind the series he was probably probably gonna be the one
that could save the round for envy but instead they go through their tried and
through their play style. They tap the selected horse players to come out. They're counting on their aim.
They tried to win these rounds, but YouTube continues to be too good for EG. They back themselves up into these fights.
I'm feeling like it's Christmas.
He's getting over there.
Where are we going? Looks like it's happening fast. They've slowed it down a few times and now they're gonna hit the go button.
Cruising right through. Get to see what he's gonna try to get in the face.
I'm so glad that you made it on the right side. Look how fun this is.
They lose a round because it's too obvious. You know what? Let's do it again, dude. Show
me a look. Surely this is why people send it, right?
I got so much respect for that.
Great.
This first half of Evil Geniuses vs. Envy.
in your 18s here, T-Mobile, for a better deal today.
There's a good half a value to watch, I may have as well pretty fast though, right?
It wasn't too bad, 23 minutes, 22 minutes.
Maybe that is fast. I think it's just because we just came off the back of watching EMEA as well.
Who are my picks for today? I went for Envy and who else did I say RVer would win this?
I'm not a Sen Believer man, I'm not a Sen Believer, I'm a Lev Believer for like, maybe
one game after this, or one more game, are you a sub buff Believer, I mean if the sub
is playing chamber I'd be fully believing this would take a lot of better time for him to have like
full impact
but John QT's been bangin recently yeah that's made that's and it's still been moving
I would see that there's more of a worrying sign, it's impossible for him to keep up that form.
Very good team and one staying after this.
In MV? No, he's like actually on the team and this isn't a stand-in.
called that timeout and at the end of round number eight yet it could convert the other one too but
uh you fedora thanks much for the time i appreciate the full moments thank you thank you for that
looks to be answered this time around is where about to witness the second half unfold envy five
players individually could definitely win these rounds okay i'm just gonna start off and already
shut down two demon one says you can have a play at it and they're gonna try to actually protect this
i thought supermen and the rest of the team were going in but it's gonna fizzle out for now
A creep going into the site here for EG as they try to keep things a little quiet until the drone
But they still have quite a bit of control over here. They just have to figure out what's going on in art
The peak the double swing there if I was able to help clean that trade up
They're still going they're still going it doesn't look like they're gonna slow down at all a jump in coming from rossy
He's gonna throw his aim off for a moment
Okay, maybe a quick
I don't know why you assume his main standpoint goes away on Astro, he's an amazing aimer.
Alright, let's compare the stats when he's at the end of this game and see what happens.
I promise you it won't be paused.
I
Guys
For Envy's end they're just trying to maximize as much as they can into their eco so that they could get these also base at
Poppins already halfway towards his on the hunter's fury
but EG is starting to run away with these rounds.
Pushing the eyes of Digizine right now as they get dimensional drip back online ASAP,
but still right side of the map they're working back on the defensive side.
So thinking Envy's going to get a little weird here on their lower by,
a little bit of the anti-ego purpose for EG moving in here slowly.
Turning every stone though.
Yeah.
Double swing to bring the torch behind a drone too.
Confirms an open site for them to take I don't know if Rossi will try to go for a time
He only has a classic to work with and now it's just fine exits try to go for
Dynaspike don't give these orbs up on the side of the
KJR, sorry, halfway, so that means for me
You're gonna have to switch weapons here, maybe try to pick up the a pistol from Superman or Bal and start having
Okinaw's chasing for these kills and spawn. I like that. Looks like they might trade over here
No, they're actually just getting out trading positions
So still Least going for the effective person to push calm
Starts off there and the rest of envy
I think you're gonna try to deny some orbs here as we just get the spike to go off a nice job by EG to roll through these ones
I think one of the things that pained them in pro going forward there you go
You got the trade finally
One thing to pay them was they played a little too safe on these rounds where they had buys
And they kind of get one team in and under their skin actual not this not this time
actual that it is going for another
share
that's a lot to show her he's got now
this map so far yeah
so getting value of the the credits
that he spends for the abilities here
for that so but he's also been very
close to halfway to his
to his stake with his prom
I mean it's a great dude that
DJ Zincon really excel in this
CG like in the system right now
like he should be saying great
He is having a grand old time today.
Alright, 10 and a half.
Because it does make Eco Pharma.
It's got a fearless, like it's the most perfect jewelry.
Just laying down the lot today.
It just needs a little bit more.
They actually had better macro on this one, so how do they get enough?
I was gonna say they need better setups, they're like absolutely designated for the yarn.
Let's all find them converted into a round for EG in that first half.
That's incredible.
So think about him right now with this Outlaw.
I feel like Okianos is a guy that could literally just have a pretty bad score and still give
it a try and just make the space and be happy.
I'm actually feeling great about this one.
works whole Rossi with the angle Rossi with a sliver forces off that so he
doesn't play anything too silly and the team can get back with him knowledge of
Rossi's position gives him some damage now you gotta watch coming around the
flank
push inside extra doesn't fall prey to it that time with the shorty and even
what's good for two from around the outside now it's just digizine and
Superman getting back in from me and it is gonna be a task that's one shot
That's two of my shots.
Damn, my Naira TG's have shown crazy.
21 to 6.
Yeah, outlaws, man.
If the outlaws didn't get knocked off to this year,
I don't know what to say.
We're ready to see him take over every single game we watch.
Oh, that second shot is not even well.
half the fuse at the start so they find the perfect timing as the smoke dissipates and it's outlaw
classics and the long-range catching players off guard one by one what a conversion out from the
evil geniuses i think that's a big point where we see that it comes down to the team who's kind
of in that veteran locked in status two team and he's up giving it for a long time though most
people are sitting down like as rossy said before three seconds later until poppin kind of confirms
Increase the quality mate, what do you want for me covering each other hitting our shots?
There's no real method in this other than we are aimers
We're good and we'll get in there when the call is ready and matter-wise when you're looking at how that ground unfolded though
It was so an orthodox in terms that Envy playstyle to get so much face to the beginning
But the fact that EG was able to crawl down for a split into the A site and still set alarm by you
I'm better quality crushes mate. I'm maxed out
So much information in the pulse plan to win for eG side and then envy well they use their brute force you till they
They set these aggressive fights on site
And then they force the eG players to really
Fall from a couple of the mistakes until you have this hero round coming up from the eG and Superman
So if you wasn't the worst of rounds coming up or envy when how they wanted to flood reading towards the end
They just got very very unlucky of not protecting each other when they're trying to get that diffuse
Where that's planted towards that
is the kill a joint matter on this map? I mean, yeah, mostly just double info, right?
info info. Four jokes. Imagine this, imagine four jokes without a double info, that's
sentinel. Right, you literally have to go one, one, one, one. Only one of these can
be strong. You can get rough. So if you can have like info info, then you can have some
strong and you can react, then it starts becoming a thing. Like Haven.
Ooh, good trade man. This should fall off, I like that.
Let's stick with the course test.
And now players to really move around that map and that was something that star was mentioned before
They haven't been too strong of finding mid round plays especially when they're still aggressive to get their early space
So they kind of feel like they're off on an island
Plugging the unknown that allows our opponents to really close out these rounds. So having EG on the attack with
We kind of got to get some info on the sides, right?
There's probably a finish from Kassna at one point, maybe.
will that actually get demon right?
see how demon one plays this smoke here
gonna go ahead and smoke it out
so they feel uncomfortable taking that back
side of sight
but they're just jumping through it shorty
fearless
our e.g. right now with the numbers they're able to
put out to the sightseeing
but that's gonna draw out the tunnel and
keep getting kills
trading out guns there
that's the real reason you pay the care of jane
charge this poppin' algorithm
It's gonna be the rest of the team needing to help him
Comes gonna have to dance that one church great crossfire on our cleaned up one
Waiting to pick another double here from the side of superman
And he cannot get it Rossi gets to with a bulldog and the diffuse comes through for Envy
Timeout value up again
That was a big play
It's faster, yeah, better quality, faster, and I'm going to watch China tomorrow, not a chance.
If China look good, okay, if China look good at the first Masters, we'll start considering it.
And when I say China, I mean, I need all three teams to be good.
If one of these teams is not good, it's not happening.
Got it.
If one team is good, I know Gila is going to be good.
lives are still there at least yeah but if the other two are decent then especially when
you're not buying they go up definitely vibe up after what i saw last year they have to earn it man
not a chance so i watched that win round they they win the round here guardians and anaries
still not out of the frying pan yeah for envy and easier just looking to go very quick towards
They're finding great value out of his clone, they shoot it out, he flashes on top of that, get some kills while he's storming back with the team, that was something that was mentioned at the desk where they wanted to see this Mr. Surge is a ploppin'
The first team to go to San Diego, yeah but man I'm just gonna watch playoffs there, dude it's not, like I know in theory it should be good for them, I'll wait until Masters
Even his TP that he forced himself away from was not even far away, so he's always there in that fight
Mini-off shot.
Feeling good.
No, Eggster has previously talked about kind of getting hit by the fog of war in a game.
It's like, man, I know what to do all the time when I'm playing online, but in the server, sometimes
it escapes me and it seems like he's got that cleaned up in these chaotic situations.
Will this miss?
Oh.
No fight. They hold their tongue. Oh, I thought...
I eat crow on that. They don't hold their tongue. They go straight for the fight.
And now it fizzles out for a moment. Look at the differences from TPs from X-rays while he stays in the site
Well, did he see was always when they were right there too many? Can they double pick up at the same time? That's kind of cool
EG though on an eco so we're again just trying to maximize as much as they can go as he can rather going to the next round
But this is also a scoreline that could potentially haunt EG
They had this matchup. They had this map against Sentinels in the past. They had a strong lead too
It was an 11-7 half or scoreline rather until Semmels came back and won it 13-11
9g was also on the attack side in that moment or in that in that map in the series
Maybe get an orb here for Superman. I mean you're gonna be going guns. You can't go shy
They do so at least you get cosmic divide out of this to four alts to come out of next round if none are used here
And Envy still can clean up, setting up their ults too, it can get locked on online if they find one more for Rossi.
So Envy in a very good position to keep stringing these together.
I think it's important that we see them be able to be down in such a way of 5-1, but still have the knowledge and the wherewithal on how to come back in that situation.
I said they have to make some noise here. They have to die in this one.
Staying alive to spy out time towards the end, the econ won't be there.
Okay, did you go a lot of orcs?
Two flogs.
Did that up against a lot of orcs?
He's one away from the overdrive now and you just mentioned before, Rossi is one away from his too.
So going into this round here, it would be a huge chaotic round two coming up.
We might have nine orcs for this round yet.
yet. Surely we see something. Have more faith in them now. More faith in the Americans using
that old sense in them.
coming through. Seems like they have the idea, continue to see, in playing at that fundamental
level and putting a few tricks in there, Demon 1 doesn't seem to be having any trouble slotting
in right now with the way they want to play.
I'm still quite surprised though on this Potter timeout. I feel like it's a little bit too early, they still have four hours of
time.
Criminal
Maybe they're prepping ahead for the
I mean they were still looking pretty decent from from the pistol to the bonus round that they converted that they could still trust into comms calls
Going to this round here and then maybe pause once you start getting like 11 8 or 11 9 potentially for envy here
You see where the old balance is gonna. It's gonna go
Yeah
I'll provide the Phoenix
Phoenix
I mean yeah in two weeks time, it's not that bad
To think how will be a strong some people saying having a little bit of a general
20 seconds smoke so five second cooldown and you can put a show on that is good
Sure good every single retake you have that smoke up. That's nice
Master of none scenarios here. It's a much 625 sale now. I promise you that's really nice
Anything that ought to be some and also info initiators pretty much
To find at the moment or like you're kind of running one. You have a smoke
You like if one info and info is huge and it goes through walls. I
Was gonna be good
It's only gonna be on no, so I was gonna say no one's gonna follow him, but they're trying to get a kill or is the play from Rossi
Well, you know everything
Insta kill go back for now, but lockdown's gonna hit and this is just gonna be absolute chaos from Eggster either side of the wall played here
Kessna's just gonna wait to see if anybody comes through just outside the lockdown playing inside his
The plays from oceanos don't come through onto Rossi. Just yeah here
And bow they've asked from him before can he do it this time?
Which I don't want swings it almost gets the second one has the time
It's not same that would have been insane, but it's once again extra singing out for envy
Do I actually actually stay on believable hair and now forcing this is really on
Like a chicken with his head cut off and you know what the chicken almost won
They were running ice on Haver because Autumn said his interview that he was feeling a while ago, and he wanted to run a Chinese agent.
Autumn's crazy though man. The only thing that I really want to hear from Autumn is, he says that Phoenix counts his tail.
You know the T1 documentary? That's the one thing I never been able to answer for.
It's Phoenix Count's tail.
Until this day, I can't work it out.
That was good tail as well. That was like busted tail.
you've already gotten all of envy exactly they have the alarm but the big
gap in the house is free to the south when you down the jump that's where you
even made that you're just gonna be just gonna be 10 HP and they're gonna see a
Molly on the floor you know what you're doing up and over and trust me I thought
of everything well at least I think I thought about it
popping here e.g. trying their hand to stop the bleeding stop this hemorrhaging
that's happening right now and they lose calm right off the bat so they're
They're gonna have to search the site themselves, the angles are covered by team and watch, and he is just next!
And after these rounds of Valorant coming through on the defensive side, we've talked about it.
Individual plays from a lot of these players across the board, they can make this a very tough game against CG.
Beautiful people should know the answer with Molly yourself.
We have these five amazing players across the board that can fight these timings.
I don't know how he does it, but he does the thing again.
Okay, so far away from Orbs, Amy survived the big Orbs rounds, and EG is not getting at Orbs for a while.
Amy is not stopping it, it doesn't look like he resisted to stop or anything in here.
No, we're not even really in Orb fight, they just want the space and give EG a hard time.
Instant reaction on this, he already takes the TP, got two of them to the site.
Cycles that e.g are desperately trying to get it back on their side take the TP
I trade a lot of utility on both ends though and each year just like this might be
Just go with this right?
I deterred that was watching mid the whole time that never
Never got broken. It allows for them to now know that there's a weak site towards B
Did they're so far away?
Drone in, full team.
What am I missing? Astral on this one so they would just take out the towards side
They're just trying to suppress at this point because they're kind of waiting out to see if back calls clean
They still haven't cleared back call
One minute on the clock and the rest of envy is now about to stand post here. Here are the site
There are decisions to go in cosmic divide comes through
Here's the slide in Casnet. Oh my gosh. Just shocking
Eggster
Superman trying to play the smoke trying to play a little sketchy and they already know
It's so fast. They did not give him a chance to set up there
NBR just cleaning up real fast blood after the other. Oh, that's a fire
Finish right there. Crazy. Thanks for has been popping off for sure. I mean, wow on that second half
But right over here. This is where we're seeing those
Little bit of those things coming up. You see me melting down free playing to win not playing off each other in there
One view one be one just through the conflict divide. Nobody there to help out
and calm unfortunately gets caught with people in hand knowing that's you know
your low HP onto kids that you're trying to get a shock dart kill instead of
getting gut out takes an error and via one round away of time things up in okay
they can plan ahead the chance on their side just gonna get come up all good
economy for eG okianos with get comma all over the death got this with a desk
you got this for the next round so they're saying grouped up nothing to
stop you up to 12 gun run what can be an answer for eG at this point oh yeah
they need old sman or what's going on
i mean getting on to science and uh...
the pulse plans for the retakes i think it's a similar storyline for both of
these teams where they're looking very strong this retakes
just if they can get there
this is good though breaking the alarm button middle
from the jazine
now they start creating these question marks are weakening up the site look at
the rotate that comes out instantly from poppin with this
odin
Alright, and then it comes to obvious yeah, just run down the clock down play your numbers
Why not on me up? This is very very smart for envy
Change of pace as well
As you're trying to find like we were talking about how it gets difficult for them to find info in the
Sometimes it's meant to be
Headshot walking backwards
150 HP for all of envy across the board no way even on that little fight to good Lord
Yeah, contact play denied for that rifle round, or at least a hero rifle for Okeanos.
We just talked about the dreadful scoreline for EG that comes back creeping at him.
And this is what I'm talking about here. You don't have the time out from Potter anymore to
try to calm them down and be like, oh crap, is it gonna happen again? I'm gonna lose this
lead that we built up against our opponents. 11 to 11.
Oh
Use the drone
Already on this round looking for a way to get in the site
They still have oceanos to dash in and do some trickery, but there's hardly any follow. It's gonna take a
a big play to make this happen you need some heroics it's up to bow here with
the space that he's just gotten that's one okie in okie down the rest of the
rest of the day the same for EG this is a lot this is a lot in the row
and he's just gonna be tying out here for E or envy to find him this is wild
from envy right now you said they were gonna be a lot stronger with the way
they could play how they could lock things down just being to finally get the
defense and be answers and spades to people don't struggle because that's all across the
board for the firing value on a defense and that's the individual prowess of this team
of this roster.
Do you know what operator R, Eggster, Outlaw, like they're having some fun enjoying at least
comfort fun you know what I mean they're not trying to troll right now that's the other
thing we're talking about.
Just all over the prime pressure to 27 months.
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
That's another pain point that EG will have to face going into the series.
Okay, pressure over towards the sides.
They take the Info on the other side as well.
T1's allowed to do what he wants. Picks up the off backup gun back aside.
Everyone's got the backup gun. Go next to one. There's one behind him as well. He's got four guns to choose from.
RENGINAL DRIFT REVEALS ALL, THE JIG IS UP HERE AND THE REST OF THEM SIGHT TO MAKE THEIR WAY IN THE TRUTH
GASMETS AWESOME BROUGHT, THAT IS BALLS FROM HIM BY LONGER
STRAIN UP ALL GESSENTED INTO THE CORNER
GOTTA GET A TAP ON THE SPIKE
SOMETHING TO PLAY FOR HIS LIFE
JUST WANTS TO MAKE SURE HERE THAT THEY GUARANTE THE ROUND FOR EG
IT'S AN OT
IT'S CREEPING EVER SO CLOSE HERE AND LOOKS LIKE EG'S GONNA TIP US OUT OF REGULATION
Oh, what that old a few shots come comes in here. Here we go
That's it. It was easy once the lockdown go over time recently. No, I'm stuck
Oh the comm shot to bring us to OT that final kill 12 to 12
That's the same thing where I was looking out for attack. That should not have happened in case of eG
This was their game to lose in
Envy took that seriously
Came down to that one of those rounds again where almost for Envy where you showed aggression
You caught some players off guard so many times and for the last round your playing as safe as possible
You're trying to force your opponents to make a mistake, but comms opener with a hunter's fury and then the cost of the buy
Available for the attack was everything for them
To continue to delay and win off time
Guaranteed especially now after that kill has a lock down. Yeah, we're looking after the attack runs
But would want any other way a rematch between eG and Envy a match that goes into overtime to start the series
and this elimination game.
Oh, well Keanu's 8th and oh, he's still outside.
Beautiful shot on the Kazan, they really bold misses.
And now we're seeing Okeanos fire up a little bit
at the beginning of the round.
Hiding, drawing that kind of towards secret.
So yeah, you're gonna get seen by the drone,
but the rest of the team is unknown.
Fijizine's already teethied across too,
and he's playing with the Phantom,
so they are looking to just play off each other and fight.
Little taps.
Oh, thanks, they're good.
Great sprays back and forth knowing the locations knowing the angles they need to trade at a swing off the target
He calls the timing catches poppin half you till out
Come on that's great. Come with the Ode and we know
And now the 2v4 pitted versus demon one and Rossy
You just scared they're just waiting for the smoke to disappear
That's a full nebula. So they got time to work here a little bit of an anchor for themselves to play on the outside
got that bubble to work around
oh he sucks them
just to the last beautiful job by demon one to get the gravity well
but it's covered in too many high lows
that's just the way it goes
evil geniuses get up the first O.T.
dude
the riv is on a roll man
the riv is on a roll
he's like wait I can say all of this and they're not gonna fire me
that's awesome
I'll do it all in two rounds
And using his own smoke as an extra obstacle to hopefully get a second one, but it wasn't enough and EG are finally back in the lead.
I'm sick.
Digizine up and excited. Two players with 24 over there on EG.
We're gonna get a timeout here.
This is a hack of a game.
Do you see him in the scoreboard comparable against each other? Who's fragging? Who's up there? It's everybody.
Everybody and it is taking the full team on both evil geniuses and Envy side to make this O.T. work
I think this time out. I think it's called by by EG actually so Potter calls it to try to close this out not on Envy
Try to bring this into a double overtime so looks like for Stunna and Groove for Envy
They're still comfortable with their game plan knowing how strong they were on the defensive side for EG
I think the call here you got to slow things down
I think going into the quick find the early information where the lock could be and try to react off that has caught them with their pants down
Often with how aggressive kids it has been
I think at this point you you need to show a little bit of a envy look
Maybe stay back towards that spawn see if anybody's gonna push aggressively then you could really go into the late drone
Mid-rounding calls that you can do here for EG side to have more bodies on to the site when you're finally finding because they
Hey, well, if you say I'm looking for the attack round.
What's the thing she has the solution?
Are they going to do just fast reactions to hear the sound, or are they going to push?
Oh, they're waiting for them to push. Dude, she might have cracked it.
He's cracked it.
First one dismissed, second one goes in, and now we're going to be in the op.
He's got the answer.
It just looks like everybody wasn't even ready for that fight.
What an awkward round to start this one off.
And they push back, it's great to spawn to check and see if anybody actually has the answer.
That Kekil could have been huge though towards that street because with that
frag it comes down to a 2v2 that they could retake the spike here for EG and
yeah bringing the hopefully favors back on our side but envy after that timeout
I love the aggression coming out of the media did stay towards that spawn but
they didn't get caught still by a recon flash I got so much on the side
the saturate is too slow but bow a kill to the plant gets him a lockdown he has
full kit to work with as well in the pulse plant three-parts and pushing the
smart or the saturate on the floor then lost with 3v3
We don't. Easy from Poppin. They get the play.
Furious.
Yeah, EGC just stunned at the end there, you know, looking at fear and headlight situation
as Envy just snapped. And that's, I think, one of the ways they're the best. We've always
known that a team on defense still feels like they're on offense at times.
Now, this is a great timeout. I mean, it should be a timeout. I saw two guys just lean back
before winning the three points.
One fancy flash. Oh, God, that was amazing.
Too late on that slow the saturated from all the Anos and
But now this last time out of overtime for Envy side to just to try to close it out again
I think this is a perfect call for him for for Envy's side
We know how strong they were on defense. They were swelling here on their attack to you
And when when he got this time out at the first half, he got so much
Value out of their pulse plants. I think it was like three in a row
I'm doing much more though. Nah, that was perfect, cool.
That was perfect, cool. Had one anti-fash, set right close.
Maybe one had to be further to take the original five.
It was basically that.
What's the best way? Okie first, Digi first.
What do you find? Digi on that B line.
He's actually done really good at pushing up, trying to get into the B lobby.
Okiano is kind of messing around with Avain.
By the way, D.B.1 has been a silent killer as well.
We've been talking about like the explosion...
The flash, yeah, the flash was good.
D.B.1 had some highlight reels, but towards the end...
I think Zipper probably has the best flash, he's out of any orn.
I say probably, he does.
And he's been switching around. He's got his guard.
His faithful guardian to the Phantom plays, to the Operator rounds.
We even saw him with the OP 1 round to drop it for a Phantom next to stay in line with the team.
It's working out.
And as you talk about Ops, it's actually not being picked up by D.D.Z.E.M. in this overtime.
No glass cannon
They're trying to play the beaten switch for both duelists. They've been hip-to-hip
I'm in the past on this bat when Oki was playing on this Yoru
There's still keep that scene
Over on this side and that was almost a nice surprise off the egg sir, but yeah now we cancel things out and then we now has the
Next step that they have to take now into the mid-round
Rokey's gonna have to cover towards street after that play but the play is going towards art for Envy
Running into the bot here a bunch of you kill in sight
Thank you. You're gonna let this play out. Yeah, they've alerted to more than one person
Dark goes up
Can't get a spray on the old man. He has to say you're gonna regret it
Oh knees and the team's still gonna try to plant here a little bit of a fake plant to get that Odin spray out and identify
where the exact location is. Digizine sees a lot more people than he wants to and plays his life
very safe to keep the pressure on. Here comes the drone in, they're gonna start using this
utility. The HP's, the HP's. The dust settles, a bit of silence in the fight right now.
Because nobody's really sure where to look, because he's going to be a little awkward and bow
fines, then pull up the positive, and Okiano finds a plus two, and now it's going to be the turn of
I'm not sure about a sweep or late on a sweep as well
The dodge shot? No, he's showing off man
tremendous value
Comes like
All right
Bowles close to dropping 30 on the killjoy start off another round here
Can envy bring it back for another OT
You see how it's quiet across the board.
That's what we were talking about before too, but instead of staying back towards spawn, they're just trying to keep good out for EG.
See if anybody's going to peek in the very first place, because they have been a little bit individualistic for Indy.
When it comes down to the first Bloods that they're attempting, look at their positions.
Demon1's already up there solo.
So they're popping to watch towards Art.
All right, do a start to you see how aggressive you love to play the space and that's the
Ready for the one time text there. You may be another
But just a drone the situation is they start to drone
Here we go
Shot over the shoulder extra there this tells the fake and look yeah, they're gonna insert to try to sell even more
That's a good check by poppin even better by the side of evil geniuses to correct the situation now
They can work a bit of the map since they can see everywhere. Yes
Okay, they're trying to sell the pressure over towards A, there's a pull to Neonah,
a pull to Neonah, but this guy hears it, with the spikes to us to commence, they can't
know the two on site, 20 seconds, that is scary.
Dude, the spike is now solo, much more than they pick on the right, oh Rossi, how have
you done that?
Oh Rossi!
What the hell?
Rossi!
My guy had like 5 kills last time I checked. How's he even 15?
Oh he's sick bro.
He steps up him over time. He's just secretly just getting kills all the time.
He was actually having like a really quiet game. He's popping off.
Oh mate.
No, they're not actually locked down.
Good sick round.
Oh yeah, that's nice.
And we're going again.
to force Kensnake to look for a different spot to take here, but it comes down to Okie.
They're going to get pretty low, they're going to get that hole in the front.
Also, because of the pressure over towards middle right now in the front here,
Kanna can't even rotate too heavy there.
The swallowing shift went over there.
They're so scared of a like thing.
There is Khan, shut down.
So games of the Bangor is made, they call this delivering.
It really is. So outside of EMEA it is delivering.
Yeah.
in the pool. For Envy, you have to put Dm1 on that jamer. He's still putting up numbers
on his ass for that, so. But overall, UG is looking really good into these over times.
Back in 4-3-go, but they're still back at map point.
Oh, the C9 energy, they traded defensive sides too, until they started trading attack sides
and over time it just seems like teams cannot get a grip on what the whole fundamentals
the game was going for. They love that defensive side for both right now. We'll see if Envy
can get there strong so we go to 1515 yeah it's in halloween we're tapping and
just leaving yeah I beg for a bag your pulse killing me who could be the one
lurking if there's still gonna be a lurk after congrats on the win this means
for me it's yeah I was gonna say maybe some sort of find me off again and just
explode as a team yeah a little a little on the side man those defaults on the
sides. It could be pretty cool. It could be pretty cool man. Easy. It's a couple with
just two extra defaults. Not too much chip damage actually. Still holding. Smoke clearing
is actually real scary knowing there's operators in the game right now. This swing's gonna
have to be fast. Smoke goes down once again. Incredible stun time. And there's still 25
seconds left of the round. This one goes through a pressure cooker. Not your favorite. Dude
This is a really good run for IG, surely.
Why did Kestin go in? Is the Shucks not going to kill him?
Oh, there you are.
Sick guy, Sick map for DG. Sick map.
For sub this is fun
that quick huddle right usually it's like all right we'll talk in the back but you're right just
quick little touches that they know they need to work on a game that was very much in evil genius
his favorite there and we'll be something they can look at for why it turned around so fast but
it's something that eg has been plagued by they seem to write the ship here but it can't rear its
head anymore this this series it seems yeah and that's just basic and he always has little starts
on first map when it comes down to series. They always bounce back to the second map and it's very cold and they pull together to get to Envy, so this game is still anybody's in the series.
We'll be coming back for Corode after the break. Don't go anywhere. It's Evil Geniuses versus Envy here, VCT Americas.
of
the
30 to 17. I mean it kind of was the DG for sure. Dude look at the fast kill there.
One of the side by side of the demon one.
They're like it doesn't...
Anyway, you guys are going full of it.
Which do they play if I was?
I mean that all the side by side that I need is this possibly but
It's it guys it's a pointless thing man. He just it's not going to be the same as it's a completely different role
The the team play role instead of a carry role, so he did great on that
But it won't be to the same levels as the chambers. That's not a thing. Um, okay, I'll be back a little bit
Yeah, apparently so, of course.
Directly been asked this a million times which team you hyped for across all regions, any
team among the SEA Masters.
The most fun team to watch at the moment is Nongshim.
them at the moment. I really like watching Gentlemates and VBL as well. Girls are fun.
MIBR is pretty fun at the moment, just because of the pure double-drill skill. I like the
chaotic teams man. It's such a good method to be chaotic in.
Echoes, Adam Echoes, thank you so much man, appreciate the 18 months, thank you to Prime
Bro, thank you for that. Good to see you. Adam we were looking at a game today where
we got 13-1'd. You were top fraggin though, that makes you feel any better.
I'm pushing forward to get to the top guard.
You off guard!
I'm back on a little bit.
No way! Right back in their favor.
Direct to the top of Exeter.
He's wide open. Pop him though. Taking over.
He's unfinished. Hungry for that final kill.
and we'll see you in a minute.
Hey guys, I'm here with Coach
Potter after an insane map where
it was so back and forth. We
didn't know what way it was
going to be closed. Now going
to the second and third. Those
are maps that you lost last time
against envy. What is it going
to take for you to carry the
momentum of this map and to
know for us I guess I got to say the positive thing is is we got it out of
the way in map one you know the last time we met them up the doubts and the
paranoia started kind of creeping in for us and it really deflated our
confidence but coming into this one we already got it out of the way in map one
so map two and three we're ready all right this is like
but it's so real for that oh my god the 5v3 that Rossi gets the ace crazy yeah
that one was gifted but hey you know what we're here now they're up to one zero and they just
have to win one more map in order to stay alive here in the lower bracket let's talk about how
they got it done of course a big part of EG's victory here even though they played it very close
in the end was them winning the pistols was them winning the bonuses yeah i mean this game looks
like it was going to be a 13-4 yeah at some point because again like you said they converted
on both it was off to an amazing start from evil genius and i think especially uh in these early
rounds now had huge impact for them to take it up in the end.
No we didn't, and looking like hindsight, they really needed to win those first three
rounds on the second half there in order to bring this into overtime eventually.
A game that really, we didn't think we're gonna go, or I didn't think it was going to
go this far, but you know, Envy did have a little bit of that comeback.
It just wasn't enough.
But EEG looked so clean, especially Digizin and Oak, because Digizin was taking so much
aggression on that defensive half, and I think that ties into what Potter was saying with
the comments.
that from them this match. Yeah, I think a few individuals that really are
highly worth here as well are bow and digits and you just mentioned digits and
bow drop 30 there as well. Like that duelist duo looks really clean when
they're on. It was really good and bow also just like you remember the first
game he played actually versus mv2 was his veto going absolutely nuclear. He does
the same thing here on the killjoy of all things and whether it was on those
pistol rounds having huge impact or late round moments as well. Him and Dijit
in with the backbone of the CGT.
Yeah, I felt like he was really good at kind of playing more back on the end,
going into that retake, or even kind of flooding towards that G site.
I really liked EGV here and the amount of utility that they had to delay it there.
Bowell also had so many of these rounds where he had like a shorty in his back
fucking, he's getting a ton of kills.
Like he was kind of just the pistol expert throughout this game.
And it's funny when you look at like the the the score lines here between everyone,
because the map almost felt like a 2v2.
Yeah, D1 stepping into this roster, Envy looking phenomenal and also Eggster stepping up, I think, pretty consistently throughout this game to keep it so competitive.
Yeah, there's a lot of aggression, a lot of gunfighting happening here and that's clearly, of course, a strength that we know Envy has and that we're leaning heavily into this one, Emily.
Yeah, they were starting to kind of win around just by doing that. You know, EG and Envy were kind of just brawling in a main.
We saw them do that towards dugout and that's where Envy started to find their success.
as soon as he started playing a little bit more back kind of playing a little bit
slower is where they kind of were able to close it out there now of course we
only see what we have on screen but our very dear Mimi she got the inside scoop
from any Mimi what did you hear in that first map yeah much like how I've been
hiding in the corner listening to you guys I was doing the same to Envy
throughout the start of this map the big elephant in the room is of course a
dean and one coming into this roster and if you were thinking about his
performance on cloud nine, having a lot of ideas in the pre-round, putting himself in positions
where he's telling his team what he needed. I think we had some of that here from demon one as well,
but the big difference is that he was playing on the Astra and he was joining into a team that
already has a lot more voices and a lot more players that have preset ideas going in. So I
think in some ways, well, he still called out tendencies and what he felt in some of these
pre-rounds this is a bit of a step back for demon one and still trying to find
those places to get his word in. Getting the word in though that was really the
name of the game for Envy. This is a team with a lot of players with strong
opinions. A lot of players who are very strong individually and have reeds of
where they want to be to thrive and the make or break for Envy is navigating
those situations correctly and defining what call they're committing to in time
to properly set it up, especially when they're having two micro at times, utility from players
like Demon 1 or even other members of the team because so much is on the fly. They've had to
really balance defining the chaos and the mix wasn't there in the first half, but it improved in
the second to make it close to find out if that's enough going into Corode as we check in with Envy's coach.
I have our map to you. I'm here with Coach Stoner and I want to ask you, MV has been
a difficult conversation in social media for the past few days. Can you tell us and give
us a little bit of insight on what this past week has been for you guys?
I mean, it's been a busy week. We had to make a change, so we made our change and we're
trying to implement Maxi. He's doing a great job.
All right, best of luck.
You're into the point.
to the point we are now heading of course to their own map pick of Corode and
that they won last time 13 games together yes we expect to see the same
today I mean what we'll have to see because the roles get funky and the
thing that interests me the most listening to your report there Mimi is
that how different it was for demon one stepping in here and I want to know how
much of that is necessarily him on a new team versus the role he was actually
playing because like back with cloud nine for example he was allowed to play the
chambered I think if he's allowed to have that free reign again to call what he wants to
do around the corner the game that he told you might be getting kicked to the umpig
yeah this might be that game honestly I thought it was uh I thought it was jambies fast game
I imagine if they put him on a chamber I think the wind is definitely on the right time
having some of those other players your Rossi's your poppins take a bit of a step back and ask him
what do you need to succeed because I really see getting him on one of those roles and letting
him succeed the way he did on cloud 9 as a priority to win this map too.
Absolutely now Riven Vans will be back with map 2 co-road right after the short break so don't go anywhere.
Yeah, that sounds a lot right.
was paper x problem versus t1 they cleaned up they cleaned up their pile
actually had a very good power probably went to spend most of their time but she
should too nailed her on breeze they just what's a nice way of saying through
that you guys would be allowed to say in chat they messed up a 1v3 into a 1v2
That was close
So they're gonna come in hungry here for the second one on
Who do you think is gonna win my one okay?
All right
We just talked about them the first map where DM1, you know, he's not the type of person that would play like a Vypher type of lurk, especially when you're looking at the last time you played on Icebox, you never really lurk on Icebox.
He's more anchored than last time.
Yeah, so we'll have to see if that's similar to looks.
No chamber again, uh oh. See nine coaches here, he's not happy.
A little bit of that roll swap coming in here for Envy.
Yeah, it's going to be interesting.
MxVII, thank you so much.
MZ, right?
MZ.
Thank you so much.
Any coach, did you have a role with all things on e-codes?
We're e-codes, we're only allowed to use it if it's advantageous or it's like a close run.
Pretty much against it.
It has to be obvious that you guys are in the other stages of this.
Against Ekos, you can pretty much use... you can use ult against Ekos as long as it's like your mind's really low.
Just 5 rounds is usually a good simple plan.
But on Ekos, they converted 100% of their main advantage.
They did really rather use ult against Ekos than anything else.
and it teaches turnarounds within the rounded itself. So if you're seeing Envy score first
bloods down on their attack side, you could probably see Envy go with a very strong second
map on their end of the year.
Inspire looks so deflated. Course man, mate. He just got removed from his tier one team
that he's been doing for a while. It's actually devastating for him. EG on defense, Envy on
attack.
Mid, and they weren't even ready for it. EG still trying to rotate and figure out if that
was real or if that was the fake but the spike's being planted just about 20 seconds into the round.
When did the scene start? I was just getting a chance to see if we
Poppin actually bought Util for Kessnid. I was like somebody told EG it started right?
This is crazy. All the trades just a classic to go straight from heaven. They're allowing the
the angles to be open here. Here's the retake a bit of protocol with the utility used for now
Now the detection and the flashes
Okay, very very nice
It's kind of the name of the game towards the end of the world
That's a crazy pistol run, honestly
Yeah, so we'll dash up there
Barely any utility help out
And casted just lines in open open open
It's time for a lot of confidence
You come out with full force, I mean you're catching your opponents off guard
You'll take it for sure
EG was not ready for that
No, and they were ready to almost take it slow too
On anything on the back half of this round
But 100 miles an hour was the name of the game
You had another round to the tally of the 100% conversion. We have a men advantage against EG
Mm-hmm guys, what is this place now an Aries on the attack side poppin is trying to find something he drove on the gun
But yeah expected me to go from sort sort of a great thing
So all of them staying back after into the spawn
Through I have besides the insert right here from Eggster
almost gets out nice nice clean up there that's a big pick up it's a very big pick up we'll
catch up run for a little bit after they actually shot two as the map goes on and now evie nv
rather makes her way through that link safe for now cason it's ready to show something
and get out of there so the team can finish the process and they're getting a little
close snap all stay now paranoia delay eg is setting up well but they're not under
the skin of nv yet
big play from okyana so they consider it
they're afraid of this lurk so they have to plant deep in the site at all
why are they looking to stay in my shop?
I mean, you'd say you considered it but
no matter if it's going to be right below the pistol
still uses the sidearm effectively for two there
at the right entrance to A
and now they just wait this one out
and only losing one?
no, they've lost two more
Superman has something to say about it
has the outlaw ready and almost gets online
for another shot here come with a sheriff two quick shots one already a
body to demon and that's enough but Rossy clean it up
nice job they do take quite a bit of damage there
33 guns into the bone so you have to get that kill on to Exeter you've already
gotten a weapon and so much max base the only gap that they have is in the middle but you gamble stack
right with the instant roti from common to the east like I think going into two
Beautiful shot from Superman on 2 vs 4 here right here. There was just a little bit of a reactive one too many peaks
They didn't really allow calm to really move up
You're trying to hopefully waste some bullets on your opponent's and calm finds the surprise attack as you're reloading
But he stopped the bleeding for Envy. It's fairly expensive
That's her buying is still quite good going into their bonus
They split A site here to work the right side towards the elbow easy take for Envy. They want to go fast on this bonus round
and get away from any of the quick pressure.
I'm out, DJZ finds a kill, another one from back side,
a third one, a fourth one.
DJZ, go to the A-Series, got your time, pop it.
Instacrouch, DJ, time to easy, the Instacrouch brain.
He's calmly too tough in everyone when Instacrouch does.
You would look like EG were caught a little bit
for the A-Side, there was some good values,
I saw some tatters on the ground,
So information was there for Envy, but as he tried to scale back up, he didn't see the client, so I had to do this as it's here.
Oh my god!
The hook!
Look at him!
He's so disappointed!
This is too easy!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Yeah, it's true, he did whiff a little bit up, poppin' towards the end when the other shots looked fairly clean.
You're definitely going to take any new rounds so far for EG to not allow Envy to snowball any of these rounds.
Rifle for Digizine again
But a team stopped in the G2 stinger force after losing. It's just that all the things
Sing enough also, but I don't really
Quickly seeing a ping there. Everybody's about to get out safe
Oh calm caught mid spray down the Odin by a quick swing
Superman's already elbow high low kind of peak
and he gets cleared
these things fizzle out for now
and they're like it's a no don't goof
oh my god
no he went for me and his mate was coming on this round
but it looks like things could go
EG's way, Dizzy's in, being a problem in sight here
we're looking for kills from Okiana
he's last, he's last
I don't even have ultimates
I couldn't even have ultimates
it's my shots
2-4 loss bonus
They should be mobile buying again that playing just to the standards you see a dimensional trip come through the site
There should be some players flowing through your corner run some utile around the information that you see
from the jazine
Right here, and then you catch them off guard with these aggressive angles
Thankfully here another big flank. Okie. Honest has been doing that on pro and doing it again this time around on
Cabral, it's a nice little two-piece
Ties up the game and breaks the income for envy one more time
killback and easy go again I was gonna say into that defensive mode but it's
still a kill mode did you see finds one well then picked up spike will go down
do you know one has a stinger to work with but up against four players
Kept it at half HP
Oh dear one kill back all that outlaw still going crazy for did the zene and they
Stopped the round off over here when it's a five
So
for a game if he did well
Honestly, it was incredible
The problem is now he needs something on the line every single game
Yeah, I think out of six rounds maybe five of them was a start
Otherwise he just goes auto by that
starts missing everything
into their crosshairs bow backs up realizes this is danger chooses the
right side to back up on
ooh Cedric can't follow up on that the great clean up here by the team event
using it
what is drawn from superman
he slopes in for a 3k
oh my gosh and it's cleaned up with the 4
in sight
big destruction as well
it ain't a bird or a plane it's a snake
Superman as is Viper dropping down on the double
No, yeah, such a nice
Bows coming through that was still very nice. I mean even if the flashes didn't get valued you have to stay towards that back of that hut
We just talked about it there
Don't always have to play these split retakes on the side of EG.
You're trying to catch them off the offense.
He's in such a good pickup, bro.
He's the hype, man.
You played that defense.
You walked down onto loud on the even.
Yeah.
You did your rifle well.
You can all plow.
How the course corrected their defensive side.
Long corrode, and it's beautiful, man.
Such nice things from Superman.
After their loss to Sentinels the next week they win,
they asked Superman in the interview,
it was like, what was the things you
needed to fix in that loss?
He said you know what? I noticed I had a lot of little mistake little mistakes
And I'm considered a rock of the team so if the rock is crumbling the rest of the team came perform
So it was really on himself that he he took that to bring his play back up
Make sure those mistakes weren't there and you get these kind of plays in the end
Crazy stuff from Superman number 113 and one of them around into farming
You put the one shot and the rest of the team isn't having any trouble fragging as the site
Is it weird to pick up Demo 1 and not play Chamber?
It's a great question.
Personally, yeah.
Is it going to take longer for Envy to reach full potential and like do this in terms of different smoke?
Or like main smokes?
Yeah, it's going to take an alarm.
A lot more than going into it.
chamber would have been pretty fast man just tell me where you want to like he
just tells it on where they want to go and they can just get back to a stuff
around it just give him like six seven no not why do I say that one six to eight
that ups and you can just choose
they're going with the regular parlor hit, fashion, oh the target at a position from Superman is unreal to understand that situation
Did you see there already to assist Albo chat when one of the numbers are
Is this the whole year with his guardian? We'll see what kind of damage is it just stuck forever
Just give me flashbacks into there match up on a bis before where superman saw the euro clone
Turn around and still shot the euro
He saw Xer run into Ivy and he got flashed and died and this time around he knows which to choose and
Punish his Xer right away, but the flake out the Ketnet was nice
I mean it wasn't yeah the strongest of Bison or Andy, but you're right
Did I say it mate? I'm on my fifth best of three of the day
It's a whole game that revolves around numbers whether it's kills rounds straps
It's impossible
Oh, I like this for me, G. They know they have a couple of ults, so they want to go active on them.
I still don't think the call is bad, even though they got absolutely stopped.
I wouldn't need to see the execution again.
It should have probably not, but I think the call is good.
to bring it to 5-3 potentially and again we're right back in there we're 5-1
should your Omen flash not always be from here?
you're right despite EG looking very good in this defensive side
in the original was it not Omen flash
that was...
Saturay
it was not this the whole time
to dodge the Omen flash and you go into the Saturay
I thought that's what it's meant to be
I thought this was meant to be low but for the rest of the team
they can actually go for these types of fights
and he recognizes that it's been quite a long-toward spawn so they want to
clear it as a team and
will keep fall further than the life
whether the coaches in america is not having assistant coach now they will do
and they just uh... they just hit him at the back
they start to stack that money and it can be a problem
and he's buying so much please stop
that doesn't mean he needs out he should have money to come back here and buy it
but it was really
no you don't double dash in and then do it
So it actually took quite a bit here from Rossi to make it get double close with the, that is.
Missing that recall too.
That's not great.
I walked in at least to just try to get one.
Still low, pre-barrier, cool wise, pretty good execution wasn't there.
He's heard cycling so much, for envy on the attack.
Aw, comes out with a plus-dive.
Alex, thank you so much.
Did you zine?
Okay.
This planet hores this A site, the fake TP.
Make it a thing that it went all the way back towards spawn look at how it pulls two players back here
They're looking
On the little adventure is this is gonna be digizine taking front sight now to see how that site was spread
How does this creep in gives them a little spike site or a little entrance into the site to?
Really cool pit, and we're gonna just split the pits as well. They don't actually cross
Interesting
Everybody having their own line of scrimmage pretty much. Who's gonna visit who first? That's the question. Oh, yeah, they have to go in the search
Poppin is sitting right on the edge. Actually, he's kind of been in a little crux between both of them
That's kind of crazy. Nobody's found him yet. He's gonna encroach back into their own calm on top trying to make it work
He actually took down the vice-coach in senior work in their favor calm is there to get a kill with supermen
Poppins looking left and right trying to find the right angle with there's just too many ways to swing the hospital
Oh, I missed it. Ah, I missed it. Had to hit it.
I did so well, yeah. It was incredible.
Perfect, so much.
some good shots came through and some good trades but it came down to the clutch bird
through there
this is the time we missed the shot
that's doing a good spot there please
what a chaotic round to happen on
it's like honestly if anything in these last two rounds uh has been indicated from envy it's that
their disrespect has got them a little bit of an advantage on what's happened in the firepots
Gingerbread 2k with a prime, appreciate the two mumps Steve, thank you for that.
They won't have the dimensional drift anymore. It has made things a little easier
So you have to note that for what's an Envy's been doing
I do have poppins all though to make sure they can just swipe a site and see where those trails lead them
The play was still very nice for Envy. I just saw that ATP
From Rossi out towards B main. You can't really hear the audio so then it allows for you to pop into a weak site
The thing is though is that EG despite Superman showing some rounds where he could drop down and surprise three players
much money to go if he's around. I'm first of the half on this.
Well, yeah. It's a nice timeout because they've got a good score and they should really get
top seven
get this is a ford snake bite just to get
did you see that this line
truck jump spot tp but did you see was just out the open and that the
crosshair placed easily for a headshot too fast
just too fast
who is she's all over the map omni present did you see another off shot is
gonna show himself now at the a side
as they already have a push coming down and reclaiming the space outside of a
for each
To make sure nobody's gonna be
Gonna say and he might get really good timing on this does he expect the corner on the right? Oh
You know, I'm just gonna throw right it's a little ways away from everyone
Even is that
Oh
And yeah, it's a really nice shot
Round of evil geniuses easy shots great crosshair placement and shutting down Envy as they search the map out EG's turn to get a
Flawless and a perfect round of that
It's all digits in not getting getting zero damage all the odd kills and spitting me off angle
I was gonna say like when just before this kill happened right on to Kesson because it found a pocket
to creep out towards the alien can make a difference, but
I think what got good value as well for the off there from
Did you see the health that he made?
Remember, we were talking about the constant condition that came out from NB?
Yeah, I did. Jeff, Jeff, thanks so much man. 15 months. Appreciate that, Jeff. Thank you.
Did you see anybody there trying to spot me on B in the first place?
But as they started winning some health, I think I missed that also man.
I think I missed that also man. Thank you so much.
Did you see anybody there trying to spot me on B in the first place?
Or are the B site start rather? And EG were kind of ready for that one.
So they just wanted to post up the up there thinking that you know what,
You might try to walk contact players or something like that and you got tremendous value out of that read
It's gonna be a what who's bench now not already might get it done
It's much easier so they can clear that right quick from calm and envy is looking to at least
Put some noise on this side of the map
Gonna get
Convergence past. Yeah
Okay, you guys gonna do this one right?
The hero kickstrap play.
Contact.
Who's my guy that capitalizes off of this?
The set plays, of course, barriers, and the idea...
The rounds that they're getting picked to do them is perfect.
The actual execution of them.
I don't know what they, um...
Who's meant to play off of this?
and he's limping around you'll see him too someone gets the flank kill as well
and low HP players on the site now for envy demon ones the only one that's a
bit healthy in this situation the catch force to move because he's orbed out by
the order wall and now he just ends kind of taking over man because he's done so
and
oh my gosh
you can't ask for any more from the e.g. players right now they are just giving
me the worst time
still finding gap and look at the respect look at superman roti all the way
backwards middle
and even digizine the 3k is sitting under the crosshair of demon 1s
17 to 5
and it's make it look easy a 7th round now
17-5, 17-5. Everyone else. Not too many kills on this.
What a beginning disaster class. And indeed he's in the clean up.
me if DJ lives in there he has been so the majority of the smokes and he's
trying to enter doesn't go too far in the peak extra here is the TP back
parallel for virgins fake on the right side a lot going on from envy here team
wide really good fake on this taking a lot of fun in the place did I watch it
enough of them but if there's like they don't see here probably enough
Oh, hello. Yeah, we're pretty well on this one and you face the first rate boss number one here though
Fast rate boss is down. There's the second one
Somehow the trade is always there. What positioning by eG to be right on the anchor of each other
And yeah, calm nose. It's like they planted the we weren't there. They're gonna push for space
And yeah, it's covered beautiful X fire there between calm and bow as the angle was approached
and Rossy sees one almost gets a second
oh he's really nice, I mean what a lovely off man
from then on
uh BG, he gets a nice one for the two most
man, appreciate the time, thank you
thank you
yeah
but he's not quite long here
All right, we are gonna be throwing it down for an interview with this half being over
Let's head over to dry add
I'm here with Furia's Nerve ahead and enjoying a little bit of the games as well. Nerve, I want to ask you, this MV team is a squad that you played last year when you were playing in town. Do you think you're going to win?
and you even won against a few of them.
How do you see them right now?
And what do you think are the strengths and weaknesses
in this matchup that they have against you?
Well, first off, the team is a little bit different.
We have three or four different players now.
Regardless of the changes, I think they're an insane team.
And somehow, like, they keep bringing
more mechanically gifted players.
And I just think this team is so mechanically gifted.
And on any given day, they can now name any team.
And I have to ask you, we are very excited
win for your matchup against MIVR and I just want to know is here at going on the run?
100% 100% I think everyone has us as an underdog we've won three matches and people still have us
as an underdog I forgot the odds but they're pretty crazy everyone has they might be our
winning by far but this is this is period year and my last question for you and this game between
EEG and NV who do you have winning? I have EEG I think EEG are looking really good right now
I
Think Superman's playing instead right now. I traveled with EG in the offseason and I tell everyone
I think Superman is most underrated player this guy is so good and I love Superman
Thank you so much
Don't see us on thank you
Absolutely crushing in these games having heaven drop plays where he just waterfalls onto a team's head eight
16 and 6 right now. That's a good life for the Capewires.
Yeah, 18 and 6, Digizine at 18 and 5.
So when you have something that's an opener in Digizine with the op,
and then somebody that anchors up and...
There's 1st and 6th chaos between Superman and Digizine.
Allow ZG to have the fall...
...and get into their attack sign.
But there are only four behind. That's kind of insane.
I think ZGNMB now has his team in his side.
I mean, this is insane.
Is there an advantage?
They get base, right?
Yeah, they're good!
It has been the story.
So, you'll have to be clean here, but the underlining thing is you have to notice now unfortunately Eggster has been shut down on the attack.
As soon as I heard the ass there, I was really wondering where he was going with this.
We're going for the loosest cast he's ever heard.
One of those silent jumps was not silent, so Rossi's force moved off his initial line there, smoked that anyways.
called the mid push and now shut them full a kill on both sides to have any
idea little bit of utile used here that insert of digizine is very nice seems
they seem aware though the left right crossfire going on the smoke leaks out
but they need the rest of the team I'm not saying he should prefer because
obviously it's born sighted waiting for that peak they kind of set up to look at
a link there and see if anybody would peak they're just a firing squad outside
the site and they just carry on down into it what a slow down there and freeze the
round by e.g.
slow the demon one has to clear every single angle it might just be too many we ask for
the first one but like that comes like now run away we're all gonna get together outside
the site and play safe here especially in two of them are one shot able now by demon
one. I don't even know if Dart's up soon. They're just playing it very, very safe.
Release for the pick, the peek, and the quick touch on Spike. Oh, Superman again! A 3k there!
I mean, incredible job. Even in low HP, sturdy on the pistol round, and another one for evil geniuses.
I love the little combo at the start at middle. Calm, gaunt, value. I think it was a drone that
you got the tag on and then because the bandit shot Alex first place in the
appreciate you don't want to break the news during the thing so I'll let you do
oh why is it always me
he has to finish with my VFL wants to go to Trent lines yep
speak to which my VFL has nerve and artisans so I don't know what they're
Damn, VFL getting the official broadcast shoutout.
They really didn't even made it, man.
EG to take so that's one orb taken they haven't heard anything towards aiming yet
good damage done by Kanzit to start though that chatter was traveling and they're they're ready
to end A here he takes the orb but then digi walks away and comes back to see if there's somebody
else on the line to kind of trick them and then despite this being an eco round for envy but we
talked about here the mid round how do you find information for envy sign when stunner was talking
about it with Pedro Romero you're looking over here there's a minute left but everybody really
You just realized you're VFL you have in spy?
Wait, I think you get D-Memema in the Tilebox.
Oh, they may be...
Honestly, they may be missed their, uh, their chance on this, but I think the MFF is a good...
but it is not going to be going down that's kind of insane
where's the right clicks going though this is this is his head
i got like the house now it's so unlucky
So you saw it, you're just trying extra just praying that the jump spot randomness the RNG of the classic is gonna hit that one single bullet
To take him down
Man, did it look so good. Astana wins that dude Astana good jump that only left like an email. That's hitting that
15 rounds 22 for digizine 21 for superman
Yeah, holy these guys are cooking and this is such an uphill battle for poppin and you're trying to think here
Maybe in the comms will Rossi start stepping up who to help out for these calls because they have no time
I'll flip so as I can be it's gonna send it through this mid-smart
All right, so fast in this flank behind it's a great help from the phone
It seems like they're gonna have no idea about the flank behind you till it what a way around this one is
You'd imagine these two get so much value
No way, no bullets hit!
And he's dodged the brawl?
He's dodging every now and then!
The devil went beyond the box!
He's still alive!
Okay, I was gonna lose my mind, bro.
Okay, well, maybe they're destined to win. What is going on there? They're actually destined to win this game. There's nothing. There's nothing envy could do.
But calm stay alive. I love those again being very
The pause is sick those survives the thing here at this position was quite nice
And then the fact that it's ever went too far as well just it was so close
I
Look at them and they force into it. They got the lion arms. They're all wrecked
They are making this look so tough and he came in with some changes to see if it would be the right choice here
And I know it'll play after kickoff
But it does not seem like they were able to get the pieces in order for this series and EG is punishing for it
And we needed some answers, but EG keeps making that test difficult. Yes an instant kill and in the 140 onto Kesnet
They dropped two players in the process orb now being picked up drone is still available too
So right now EG could continue to play a clean round to get the lead info
Probably spot even one in the site. Yeah, just saw it
I flashed it's gonna be a good kill by Ekster and it looks like they're able to thwart the take so far and
Regie stopped in their tracks
8 HP trying to play his life
And 10 on Kesson on the rotate
Yeah, go ahead buddy
For this one they go for a fake plant to see if they can pull anything out actually planting in a little bit better of a spot as well
under that Viper orb
I'm the fake TP's on them.
The fake TP's absolutely on them.
27 to 6.
I just smoked, scorn, he fakes the TP.
Ok bro, you should heal, it's the kill to me bro
Come on, Bao, Bao is going through it on stage right now
Please
I'll never want to remember this series even if it is a W
Push forward, Okianos
Hardly ever on that quick aggressive play
But they're still trying to find a little bit through it
Because Envy probably isn't expecting it
The Huntress Fury did his thing, followed up, throws Envy for a loop to start round 17
As things calm down though, it's still the EG with the player advantage
Okay, I know this did get heavily punished in the first place when Envy knew potentially about the type of
Map space you're trying to get at the very beginning with a double dash so they instantly go for some util right in that pocket
Now e.g. We're just gonna wait
I think they're understanding to that Envy will have to try to find some information in the mid-round
But as they lose pop in the first place
Well, this is gonna be very difficult with no prowlers and haunts. Yeah
Everything becomes a personal check. You are the turret you are the sentry
And that's why EG staying as a group going for instant trades. I think this is a perfect fall right now for EG in the mid-round
Wall goes up
Cruising through here Ross. He looks to get a peek actually as it drops. Maybe an upper-hand
As you expect the second one he's looking for it. He was looking for it kill for Envy
He checks again. Oh
Wow
Absolutely on this guy
Well, HP is doable. Casnit, mate. I'm not thinking we're doing that, but sure.
Yeah, cause I'm confidence up the hill and shot him right off the shore as well.
happen there all I saw was four players instantly dropping on the kill feed that was that was
a superman play by who was the judge there I was extra yeah yeah you gotta give him
some time man change of a play you gotta give him some time
I mean Superman might just take me in space here, right?
Right, yeah, I was playing first. I was looking at the minimap like, well, maybe not.
you stole someone that hits the lines and you're selling this fake on a B site to start
keeping them guessing he has to consider there might have been a timing too
digizine now going to the other site they see a orb
no wind through the saturate he only has sheriff
he's just going to piss in the stuff in the crowd man often
and digizine buys them through the middle
looking to put envy to bed it is only gonna be rossi coming through spawn now with the bulldog
standing inside here for the side of evil geniuses and did he still even
covering the flank so the team can watch spawn it's just a push out Ross he
tries to get in very nice and Sammy dominant on this one is waving him
goodbye you in a month and a half
again another eg day where they find revenge a math one corolla were they
were dominated by the 100% conversions on advantages on the side of Envy. But now, today, when it matters most, they eliminate Envy, who has made such a big change and Demon 1 joining the roster again, adding so much firepower.
The design is having fun. I mean bro, look at this game he just had.
I love the sound so don't get me afforded it.
Back to the VCT stage the rest of the team as well playing absolutely amazing superman
We had a side-by-side path an example of how to use
Pucky's demon one and how to not use demon one. Yeah, it does feel a little weird to get him in and just go
Let's put him on control though, and you're probably the most dominant chambermatter since chambermatter
It's a choice, but with the choice it will take time to get good.
DG's in 58-25.
10-5 for fast kills.
Dude, look at Superman with fast kills, 8-1 as well, brother.
2-10 ADR.
Pretty insane.
Freezing in June with a tier one, and put the 33 months. Thank you.
Clinically today
Man, it was hard to pressure Digizine in this one. What a match for him
Oh, he was he closer to drop him 30 did he drop 30? That's the question an envy a run where they started hot
Decided to make sure he had a nice space
Lulie bringing the fire once they're able to capitalize on everything what's in that school too is that eG will now face again
ThunderD's going into the whole rackets and that is an energy that has also found a resurgence into a rebuild
going into 2026. So I think this upcoming game between those two games.
Did we get that tomorrow because of the three games?
And as we move on to those games, it does mean we have to say goodbye to
Ed Vief, who came in from the Ascension Tournament firing on all cylinders,
hit some rocks because they couldn't bring the core.
And it seems like they're still trying to figure some things out,
but not a team to be taken lightly still. Definitely.
Some big question, some big check mark story that you could actually
Solidify for this team is one of course the fire power to you have demon one. It's very hard to not say okay
Well, you have demon one there. They're definitely gonna do good
It's no it just comes down to the mackerel to find their identity right now as well for the sudden envy and it looked good in the
Stage one. All right. Well, let's set it down to dry add on the stage for the Verizon post match interview with calm
Thank you guys so much can't hear for come I think if they win against envy come come on come on
I bet you didn't know you were in a phase 3-1-1 today.
That was a vast minute change.
How does he feel, not only to Flagan as your ex-teammate,
but also to get revenge for that first match he had?
All of it feels really awesome.
I respect Max a lot.
He's literally one of my favorite teammates I've ever had.
And he deserves all the praise.
He deserves to be on the BCT stage,
so I'm really happy he was able to do that.
And yeah, it's always good to give revenge.
I didn't like how that first one, it almost happened again.
again on map one but yeah I'm super happy and we just have to keep building on this.
And I want to talk about the calling that you've had we always know that you've been
always very vocal in different teams but now as the IGL what is it like to IGL this team especially
you know having a DGC for example that is learning English and having a mix of players that maybe
uh knackwash thank you so much for the right to think that. I mean it's definitely a lot of
play and I think it's definitely a lot of work I have to put in but also at the same exact time
The guys make it super easy. I'm so happy to be playing with these guys and as you see
I'm so happy to see Doug activated 30 and seven that last map
I mean, it's insane. This is stuff that we've been showing in scrims
I think eventually you will see it in Santiago
There's one matches just ahead of you it's hundred beef give me your thoughts and hundred thieves and why you're winning against them
Um, I mean they definitely have a specific play style, but I think it'll be a 2-0 for us. No worries
It's just simple like that. Thank you so much. Come this is everything that we have for the post match interview
We're gonna send it to a break and when we come back. We have sent emails against Levi
Okay, yeah
We have we get send buses live we've got to we've been waiting for this all day
coming together to create a series of products for esports for the biggest stages.
Yeah, we're back on the map.
I
I was very happy because I was able to show all of that in the World Cup, etc.
and lights from John G.T.
That is a second of the series, by the way,
one on each map.
I think we complement each other well
and just making sure we do well in these matches.
I don't have any game players
in the specific that I want to face.
Because no, my style of playing
is not based on the other.
It's not based on me and my team.
And the preparation that one has
in the day-to-day helps a lot.
So if we do things right between us,
there's no need to play.
Yeah, being a low bracket isn't the best feeling, you know, it sucks, because you know you're
winning one more life, so one more mistake.
We're going to release stuff up in these crucial moments and make sure every time we play it counts.
Welcome back to VCT America's kickoff.
Zoe here back on the desk with Mimi, Ender and Emily.
We just got to witness EG taking out Envy.
Their kickoff journey came to an end.
day of course there were plenty of highlight worthy moments in the last three weeks but they have
to go back to the drawing board um they're not going to be from the outside looking in.
Yeah that they will it's tough to have to watch on for Santiago especially with Kesley on the team
but that's how it is and there's another elimination match coming up. There is indeed so let's talk
about it let's talk about those two teams. Leviathan I want to start with here because week one and
two that they can get to play with their full roster right they came in with a sub which is always
was a difficult kind of, you know, place to be in.
Now, Neon became eligible and immediately
they started winning.
So the math is nothing.
No, I know.
I mean, hey, he's back and so it was like a thought.
Neon was absolutely on fire.
I mean, in his debut goes 13 in first kills
to two first deaths.
Absolutely destroys crew.
It was the thing of you to watch.
Yeah, that was very impressive.
but the team as a whole just felt a lot stronger
when watching them, right?
I felt like the thing that stood out to me for them
was their team chemistry.
They were doing so well at fighting together,
but it felt like something was missing.
And when we saw Neon come back in, I realized,
oh, they weren't just doing a one-for-one sub with PXS.
No, they were literally playing around PXS,
changing their comps, changing their roles.
And now that we see them back on their comfort picks
and playing into their game plans
that they originally wanted to come in with, with Neon,
it feels great.
I think it answered a lot of the questions that we thought were going to be easy to answer,
right?
Easy on as incredible as he was in Tier 2 individually.
Yes, is Spike going to play to his peak form when the team's roles get fixed?
Yes.
And can they win dominantly against a sub roster?
Also a yes.
But to me, I still think that because of how dominant that game was, because of how reliance
on individual performances that game was, that was not yet the test of how good love
is as a team and how deep they can go.
That was just the the the order of can they shoot good?
Absolutely.
Yeah, we've seen Neil on the beat the the teams down in ascension and
challengers before right?
But now I think I want to see him up against a legit team that's all here and
here to play.
It was just so impressive that he came in with so much confidence.
Like no fear going in.
He had aura already on that stage and he slot a right in.
Like this did not look like his first time on the VCT stage.
No, there's are not getting to it all.
I was honestly a little bit skeptical
with how much everyone specifically dried I wanna shout out.
I watched you was hyping up Neon.
I'm like, surely one person can't come in
and just dominate and kind of fix a roster?
And Neon kind of did.
Like Neon was performing,
getting those first clubs like you said,
especially all that secondary bullets,
which normally is kind of like the cleanup crew.
No, he was in there getting as much action
and action as their Neon.
Yeah, I think the way they built around him
was really nice enabling him to like be the first one
to activate in a lot of rounds
so that the rest of the team could play the control style
go bomb kids. Yeah, and when we talked to the team the last two weeks, I did say, like, you know, like, we're not playing in our roles, like, it just, the team isn't complete. And now they felt like a whole team again with Neon back in the mix. Let's hear what coach owner had to say earlier today to Ryan.
I'm here with coach owner ahead of their match against Sentinels. And I want to ask you about the growth that the team has had so far. You were the coach of the players in Latin back today. Now we get to call icons.
So, what is new generation?
Tell me, what is the balance of refinement for player development and, you know, letting
them run it down and sometimes also just pulling back and making sure that these bases are
looking good.
Yeah, this group of young men, it's not like in 2021 or 2022 that we were starting, you
know.
This group had a lot of personal development, a lot of work that they did before me.
They knew that they want to be professional players since they were like 14 or 15.
So it's easy for me, you know, they are very young, but they are very professional.
So they make my life easy.
Sounds good.
Good luck today.
He spoke a little bit like a proud dad.
They were like, how much can grow out of it now we're all here together.
But I think it does mean a lot to owner to find success with this roster.
The last time he was a coach in America, he was coaching a Levy aton that he's most
remembered for saving every round and messing up some of their macro and not quite living
up to the potential that that team had at the time.
So now with a second shot after more than a year away, he has this opportunity with some
of the best talent that South America has to offer to actually show that he can coach
a team to success and kind of make up for the mistakes of the past.
Yeah, now, of course, it's unfortunate that, you know, showing them and now a bit later into the kickoff now they're finding themselves at the brink of elimination and sort of sentinels and quite frankly, like these are two teams that historically have stronger starts in a kickoff.
Yeah, I mean, this is a team that, you know, came into 2024 to go on to win Masters Madrid, right? Even last year they come out as the second team from America's even after losing a star in 10.
So I think it's interesting to see that Sentinels
have been able to find success in previous years,
even after losing stars like Tens,
like Saucy being able to rebuild
around one or two missing pieces.
But this year with the whole rebrand, it's looking rougher.
No, it is, but I think one key thing
in why their rebuilds are so successful in the past,
or right off the start, they were successful,
is because they kind of had plug-in play players.
They had players that were already established, right?
There was no question on their strengths
and like their value that they would bring to the team.
Whereas this year is a little bit more developmental, right?
They're kind of aiming for that future success
rather than the immediate,
bringing up two players from tier two,
swapping your IGL to a different person, right?
Like if there's a lot of changes here,
that's just looking for positive things to happen
in the future.
It's a long run.
Still, if you can't make it happen and kick off,
you have more than like two months basically
where you're just sitting back
and having to practice and prepare for stage one.
And especially for Levy-Iton,
Missing the the first masters in a in a Latin American country. That would be a big disappointment for them
I mean the last time these teams played against each other you had tens second saucy
Ostfoss and calm just think about the amount of trophies between those players now
Reset back to kind of starting from zero and seeing which
Developmental project is actually further along. I'm sure both teams don't want to find themselves into position now last year
we are and for more on Sentinels new roster and the kickoff struggles with diet, sit and diet,
dry it, sitting down. Nailed it. Absolutely. Hey guys, I'm here with coach Kaplan ahead of your
match against Love. This is a high pressure situation, but it's not the first time that you've
been here, whether it was Grand Finals or another elimination. So for today, how does this kind of
pressure compare to other pressure that we had in the past and with this specific roster as well?
Yeah, I think pressure is always a tool. There's always a lot of it on Sentinels.
It's important to me as a coach to use it, right? Pressure helps us stress test our
issues, stress test our systems the way our roster works, and we're definitely
getting put through that right now. I think the difference right now is that in
the past a lot of the time it was just about playing under pressure and getting
comfortable with that. Right now it's obviously still about that, but it's also
a very competitive region this year. We're right at the start of the year and I
And I think our team has a little more growth that we need to go through compared to previous
years.
So we're really trying to use that pressure during the scrim weeks.
Just double down, be very deliberate, and make sure that shows up in the scrims or in
the matches.
Which is something that you mentioned as well, where you were focusing on making improvements
every single day.
And that was the goal for the team.
So how do you balance those small improvements and make sure that the players are constantly
applying them, even in a situation like this one?
Yeah, I think that during a scrim week, we're definitely going to be deliberate and work on a few target things.
And we just need to all be bought in that when we go into the match, we don't need to be the perfect team to win these matches.
We don't need to be incredible at 20 things.
Working on those things we've been working on in scrims, making sure we're still doing them in matches under pressure, that's enough to win.
And I think as long as we understand that, we stay focused on it and it still shows up.
Makes sense. Best of luck.
Thank you.
It's a great insight there from coach Kaplan.
Yeah, it's a different approach.
All right, I love it.
So this year, more developmental, they're bringing up those two different players, and
so far, the results are mixed.
Yeah, I really like how he pointed out, he doesn't want to focus on being great at 20
different things, especially having basically a brand new roster.
You want to focus on the fundamentals and build up from there.
Here's the question I want to ask of going into today.
After seeing their losses early on in this tournament to go down to this lower bracket,
they're going to make a shift in the direction of the team.
If you were one of the nerds staring at Narrate's tracker
over the last minute, you'll have noticed he was playing,
or excuse me, Redux rather, he was playing a ton of that
way, which has led to thought as to whether Narrate might be
swapped off that primary duelist role after his
under performances to start this off.
And I think that is one of the big things to look at as we
get set for this game.
Yeah, I mean, it's no surprise that Narrate's been under a lot
pressure I think after swapping back onto the rule something he did back when he
was across the pond in EMEA for a little bit but on wearing that sentels jersey
it's been a very different situation for him. What are you guys asking right now?
Come back in the first few questions I'll do to find mashed potatoes or fries or heads or
tails if I sell them all. Um, fries and tails why not. Um, carrodes bind the best.
back-to-back Karoad but then we did a bind and then we have a base ten pick
Karoad. Oh, chamber Raylion.
I still feel like there was a little bit more cooking that they needed to have there especially in their game plan going into that.
Yeah you got a little spoiler there seeing that chamber quite possibly here for Neon on one side but I think so much of this for
Sentinels is you can't just rely on John QT again.
You must envy EG and take-aways.
My main take-away is EG-wise.
Obviously, they're doing a lot better.
I would say that EG is in...
It's just heavy carry, should be in play more.
They actually look pretty together.
And they fixed a bit of their macro of Euro as well.
Made a lot more sense when I watched it on the fence.
And Envy's just going to take some time on it.
If they're playing Demon 1 on Smokes,
going to take some time for it to get to Snotter as if I can play as the Chamber would have been.
So, Redux goes on to Waleigh, Narek goes on to the Neon, but we're both playing double,
I'm a double jewelist who's the sender and who's the straggler.
Because in theory they're both the space makers.
What?
Because in this space maker agency I'm on the way.
Might just be a bit of comfort as well.
Let's see.
The double dive here should be pretty good though.
Paperoni Tony, thank you so much.
I appreciate that.
actually thank you for the five gets it I appreciate you do thank you for
done it
feeling awake enough to stand dude if you if you put it in I'll do it man
or was in college wait or or why college with the tier one thanks for the two
months thank you thank you appreciate that
with a left hand player and coach who are looking for that opportunity to play in front of that crowd
in Santiago.
Yeah, I'm interested to see how they make it.
Get to Santiago, play in front of that home crowd on the opposite side.
You're talking about Send's history, success at kickoff over the past 10 years.
Oh yeah, Kaz and me. I don't want people to be doing it.
Put out pie.
I'd rather be sitting.
He's got the past member remaining. Yeah, he's at the standard for the fans and the amount
of pressure, honestly, that they're applying to this team.
Right, Levon Defense, Zen on the tank.
Neon on the chain back with the...
Whoa!
Nice shot, bro.
He had a good start for the, uh...
Good start for the Neon, huh?
Well...
It's my fellow Zoe.
Yeah, Neon last time was great, man.
I mean, Neon's gonna be great every game.
So good.
And that's also my fads. Can't say anything about the game, they're just into the dying.
We keep on testing it.
Jon definitely hits this first shot.
John definitely will hit one shot.
Sure man, no spam on that.
Insanity.
Stop spamming all, spamming all of them pissed around, that is actually what I'll behave you to write.
the way picking up this Neon I think you really want to see that if you're a
full send fan and even Leve have the best pistol record out of any team right
now I'm pretty sure if my memory is good which is not it's 15 out of 17
pistols I can't be right to come up here and I ignore that John in the peak
individual form I think we've ever seen him in the history of Valorant but they're
We don't talk about the anti-correct.
Delbert King's hunting for narrate here. Look at some high space now. Yeah Cortesio on his way
Just a classic for Cortesio
Narrates have a win that fight out on his own and so it falls to Sato to get in here and dig the spike out
But it's gonna be surrounded on three sides with narrate
Surely rattling the case you get is a very nice one
So we didn't talk about the anti because the pistol and records still intact looks really good
on
I'll back here
Kind of walking into this game be America's for that
We've got neon who hits the ground running last week and has an insane performance plays a lot of Yuri
He goes to 62 ACS for the series 3921 for the 13 and to first kill first step
Then there's married who in an interview with sage Jacqueline basically says don't throw me out
Yeah, I still got a lot to show a lot to give and in that conversation
He kind of says that I'm an intuitive player. I like to play intuitively
I don't want to be too structured about my approach
But that means if I come into a game feeling off
Or I'm just not locked in and yeah, they are involved alone the tech bubbles
I really need to be in a good headspace
I really need to get up to a good start and then he referenced obviously what he was able to do last year
You know in stage two right towards the middle part of the year
He said it's sick during champions and he definitely struggled his gameplay struggled there
But he wants to remind everybody what he was having to demonstrate on that sent those roster and he thinks he can access that here
But a moment too soon. This is the lower bracket
They've lost six out of 17 rounds after winning the pistols
Is not great watching him on wayla, but that's honestly not as bad as I thought that's obviously not a very record
you weren't seeing
Dash is in where he's getting caught at times. I'm questioning is this a part of the game plan going wrong
Regardless I just want to remove any
Possible negatives from running double check. I just switching him to yeah, but I thought they've only played 17
I was even takes me saying it six out of 15
In terms of what was and when you started seeing rumors of him moving up to the league
It was because of him playing neon crushing challenges seems alone during the neon meta
And then making his way to k-corp eventually back here, right? But this is certainly a comfort room. Okay. I just think that's exactly what he needs
Some early moments of passing stack over towards here as we can see
you, at least where they're brought in. They don't have to act sec. They'll eco-farm them,
run the scout out, get a bit of resistance, so maybe we start exploring another science.
If a coach subs in, like you had Bonka subbing in, who would be calling? It would still be
and Bunker maybe would help sometimes.
They wouldn't have played for someone, but they just need to focus on Crosse.
You also don't want to change like whatever's working.
You'd be mad to do that.
Oh, just above.
above. That's how he has three shorty kills, he's reloaded. Oh my god. He was going for
the shorty ace. Insane man.
this is going to be on this way like
compared to what we've gotten from Sen
running the agents so far.
Now, honestly though, all those kills,
it doesn't even end up bad because Sen
when the eco is around, he's still super strong.
But it does get Sato very close to the convergent path.
He's just one more way, blows one away from the nightfall
because of all the kills he got,
that four piece on the pistol they won.
So we can definitely see those ults
coming to play late into this round.
They feel like they hit them, but also regardless of the hormonal, they commit or create pressure.
We also won away from a fade.
It's pretty nice.
Pressure over towards B, they kind of clear it with the fade, and then join into triple
face over towards middle.
They don't see anything over towards middle, so they lean over towards the animal.
Consume takeover at any given moment. Here's an area in with a relay pole.
Visual Sato, yeah, he's set to get out.
Okay, but that gives space. There's a bit of a use of it.
Sato taking down through that dark cover. There, I have to spray it in his direction.
Yeah, the refractive, get him all the way out the way.
Inside the smoke, John 2T is hiding.
Or rather, that was King Paranoia.
The very individual from that one, this one.
That is a great spot. That is a light play.
I would also say that I like the calling from Sen here.
It's very simple, but it's like, this is what he should really be doing with Double Jolest.
with a paranoia you have no idea if someone is just gonna be stood to the left and where do you go
it's not like you're popping out with a tail flash or something that's gonna fly to everyone so
it's probably gonna be based on a misconception you probably doesn't think that marite is
sitting up on that off angle or could be yet he's playing neil
levi the moment have lost six out of 13 and six out of 14 anti-eco's nearly half
On the back of that right. It was just a real disjointed effort there from left to try and hold that site
There was no activation point where everyone suddenly did something at once
There's a flood on the spike tap like something along those lines. It just fell apart piece by piece the
Domino's falling and there it's got the alt into this round
couple of alts for send maybe a pit if they get that spike down
Let have a meager investment into this. It's been so varied. I even be the need to open
Really trying to mix up their approach here
And the ones controlling P main so they're content with trying to fight over me
Will there be a little on the tree to flash
Lay on this on the kind of mr. Mark on this
Little rough for that looking pretty good for Sam really consistently
God is he has no reason to take it along good fight with me on the probably felt like you had the better
And that's actually just dominate you if you say that quarter they're getting hit by a saturate and a relay bolt at the same time
The saturate is really better defining. I think make you know punishing to play those corners
Me send can keep this go in the company also they got
Lovely set playing 16. That's huge. What a beautiful play
Did you know just to answer that there's no window of opportunity to retaliate
He'd take notes. Yeah, that's the easiest thing to fix though
We got little heads up
His reaction to our neons has looked astonishing so far in kick-up like quantum computing level
astonishing.
He just doesn't miss these held angles.
You've got to force him up.
What is this Viper?
Why is that happening then?
That's right.
It's a little so random sometimes.
I'm playing a hell of a lot of Vipers and the team has gotten their full roster.
Okay, could be convincing around a lot of money on this one.
I wonder if they just go back to going fast really.
into the league he is very flexible and he does not play again haunt over tops
oh my i mean crazy double dash paranoia is excellent
everything about that left leg work across the map
you need that guys you're gonna do that guys
incident reaction there from neon okay two round game
everyone's money is unbelievable get a couple of virons before i know that's the eco depending
on what goes on. Yeah, this makes sense from San, right? It's got picked up from an
alt, just go back to this 5 person grouping, head over towards the site. I'll be
thus a retaker, just over one. Keep it nice and simple with the alt. Leves were fully
on top of this. You're never going to think this is 3, Elvo.
Ooh, maybe.
The Fatal goes in, you guys should stop sending it.
Guys, the Fatal hit everyone, you gotta speed up.
Okay, now they're locked in.
Very, very nice, and he's back to back around with everyone surviving.
let's retake of a VIP game we got a game you can just feel the walls closing in
um Alex you should for sure be doing that yeah not a lot of options for a
send you should have the keyboard though i guess i'm just gonna die to spam i
don't even think that ended up happening really look at that from spike the
adjustment to the right is nasty why we've seen the trim set before that is a
three why Alex what's your what's your crouching game
The number of their all the heavy rounds over the last couple of weeks have been pretty underwhelming
Yeah, I think that has been a pain point in their gameplay. They're just unable to press forward
Control okay put your keyboard straight and try press control loads
Look at your little finger and then tilt your keyboard and then look at your little finger. This is way better for you
I'm sure we're coming out now right dancing amongst
The arcs of electricity is gonna be spike to fall
Kings playing back on the side this time though not into elbow
for a levy attack they will have sato up from the sattray but it sleep past
now it's gonna take king down that's the control you till gone but it isn't
right that sato is able to go one for one he does eventually have to retreat though
pinged up blinded as well by that paranoia that's a nasty spike
they do that's gonna be crucial kaiju stepping up on this ground of left players they go through
this dark cover cross they're staring at maybe a fade i could help her
How on earth, how on earth does my guy get two kills running through the smoke when two
people are looking at the smoke from the scene?
He's led the youngest team in BCT for sure, must be.
when Mary accelerates we've seen even Kings on that all day
this neon is outpacing this defensive use so that was another one where nary gets ahead of the
saturate and is then able to kill King it's that same angle that he called King off in a few
rounds ago when King just dry swings his own smoke up to paranoia maybe not then yeah King might be
Kings 24 maybe maybe one of the Turkish teams in the EMEA is younger
You're getting the wall coming out from Nere. There's just too much obscuring any reasonable angle that could be taken by an offer though.
Maybe this round will be the moment unless you just got forced away by the drone.
It's not the drone, it's the YouTube. That's been every round. It's the pace behind the drone that makes it impossible for the other team to re-post up on angles.
These two look deadly. They do this all the time.
Actually, they have three different variations, all basically the same thing.
They definitely got to change up their arms, struts a little bit even though they've changed up their arm and play.
They're a pretty big pick really, it's like the main ult to help them retake this.
now just to get through the dark cover, so if a tool for a post plant removed, is a live attempt to maneuver their way here for the 4 on 3
not the best ult comp, the 3 orbs that are like situational really
the crossfire is set up here
St. Viper quarter to use, relevant
they still had his Viper up and the bow control is in play, I think it's pretty impressive
Oh, that's nice. Teva in the choke point, so it clears over towards here, but the Odin
ready to spam it, just sees the trial so he can just spam it. Oh, look at this guy with
the Odin, man. Rok would be proud.
The last few matches, but let the entire wise to it. That's a nice retake
They really just the police sends numbers piece by piece isolation on Cortezia first and they move on
Figure out where Kairis. He's spending Alex make money out of blows
Even if he gets that kill looks like he was actually swarmed after the fact
And I mean just as I was talking about neon struggling to get anything done with the off because of send just
There's average player ages 19.2, are you going to do the maths?
Orly.
I think there are only two teams that can compete without a BBL and S.H.O.L.F.
I think Rose is a little older.
I think that I probably heard the trademark there as well.
Now this has been the prescribed location for it.
It doesn't feel like it wants to run up and get slowed.
Sato very weak is getting out of mid back to spawn.
So SEM do have the opportunity to walk up here without danger.
Though, of course, they don't know that.
They don't know that the link is just for the taking.
As they're working into this, a split, three players from led.
Ready to hold this site again.
It's quite spotted out.
Here's to give the space up there.
Hope to still let a little bit more.
Vyp is pinned on A. That's where you think Semi going to land.
That's pretty good assumption to make. Redux can't get ahead of the saturate.
A lot of space has been cleaved.
They might keep the Viper out of your full-
Ooh, that's unlucky.
That's not part of the map now. Not under the leds control anymore.
Could pick up on his king. He's found three in the pit.
He's out of the game.
Ooh, lovely shot skin.
This guy is in trouble.
Nothing but trouble.
Spike Luce, Colt Pazia has to recover and he's about to get backstabbed if he's not 10.
What a lovely, lovely round, man.
Enables heavily by the Viper.
Yeah, this team, the left team has so much potential. So much potential.
feel for the tempo I think once they got their money kind of stabilized a little
do you think that again send their best their best chances or their best rounds
have just been what they're doing right now just set xx just pick a sign just go
for it
just hit the gas back in I mean not all five players are here they still have two
in medisify thank you so much for the five months man I appreciate the plan dude
I feel like every round you're just saying different names of love players like you did
well.
Impressive.
I really like what he does.
He's got a great fade.
5-2 much.
They're undoing on a couple of these execs. We've seen it on both sites now
Look what was in the position as the attack?
What's the company guys stuck in Maine by saying five is too much. No way you're gonna be able to win that out
So caught you looking at it like I'm gonna get me held. I
More chance all five players for sending be main no ulcer right now. I'm super convinced
They're getting in the besides quickly as I can but we look be fast enough now right is well in trench
and there's a smoke that keeps Leviton's reinforcements still in top here.
Can Sen do anything to actually fight forward, to actually take the space they couldn't on
that last round so they can get six for the half ends.
This is nice man, right?
I want to see more of that.
They have three players fighting right into elbow, smoke down, they can take head and
control.
They realize the errors that they made in that last round.
Alright, that's going to be the action there, back towards that B area.
Oh, dangerous.
Leon's able to avoid being taken down, but he's in a weird spot.
Doesn't have anyone to play off of.
There's the dash across, it's getting...
I'm heavy here over the Walthard Arch area.
Sato's trying to get in.
Well, after you fought five, there's nothing sure the six is.
Get the drops!
There's Sato once more, drops down.
Hard to hear, but Kairi's had three.
So far, the king's on the deep use.
He's got an answer.
Leon, missing the shot, doesn't do quite enough damage.
And then brawl of the storm, and obviously 6 was never going to happen.
And it's going to be 5, there's always going to be my end of that sentence.
Incredible comeback though, let's be honest.
Um, Alex, who do I think? Realistically, by the end of the year?
Yeah, I'll probably say Fnatic.
this blistering explosive paste it might be bbl
all still look forward to it all fun to get their players going to this
they give me a fun team
I should have said Vatanthi and you're right.
I regret my decision.
It's the year of the come on, I keep forgetting.
you're back after looking at the ages the oldest team is team secret but an average age of 25.8
well guys man
the
Yeah, you can't say that explains a lot.
Give between Sentinels and Leviathan. Two teams on their last legs in the hunt for a spotted master Santiago.
Leviathan, they give a bit of the back-up on a lot of these defense side rounds, but why are they retakes look meticulously constructed and
At half of them they're coming out with only one gun lost. It's like four players standing when the smoke clears
Yeah, you take a look at the timeline right now
Yeah, once we got into the Byron's, they got a bit of money.
Um, Lev, the Kings of Pistols, how do they do on the Pistols?
Nice start.
It might be better for them to lose because they keep getting eco'd.
Just end up not gifting the enemy team extra guns, but that should be the strat man.
from sand but at the moment the position is pretty unwavering
patient here from that right not forging your head for anything
too excessive very quiet from the timing i mean they're gonna check it at one point
it's to the 42nd mark and they choose to just tilt and sign it there's not going to be a dash
under the crack there's my spike going it's going to come down to straight angels as you mentioned
And then also a haunt for blows. Those are the two pieces of Utah as legend.
25 seconds. Smoke goes over towards here.
Phaedai goes in. Phaepa goes out.
Phaedai goes back. He needs to make sure he doesn't walk into the wall like that.
10 seconds. Holy hell, the 25 second fake has worked unbelievably well.
Look how calm they are.
for a loop and now they're playing America's fanatic look at them I think they wanted a chance to
at least trade top maybe you know someone randomly took a peak timing maybe they were always intending
on ending it out this is now the person that was taking over towards B walks the whole way so
they have no idea and then we need to delay okay now they're gonna go fast now one of us put the
fast behind spike that is huge now you're on a clock if you're setting those in more ways than one
guess you're gonna get the defuse but also that Viper is like a good smoke from what I saw
Okay line up.
And it's in hand with this pretty well in the end.
How's he got a double hair?
You gotta give props to John, I think, right?
John, smoke.
Smoke outside, got him a double.
Ah, there you go.
Guy, you just casual little lineup, sticks the spike.
The rest of the same day is not exactly what they need to because of that flank.
There's a lot of push and pull in that round.
They were sweating just because they were taking it so damn long.
Yeah, they were so calm with it.
Bonus coaching style, though. This is funny.
Let me talk to, like, a 3-4 duelist's team.
But they have a coach that really likes the meticulous game plan and conservative saves as well.
as well. Interesting mix. This time a little bit faster. Straight into B but straight out
of B. Good jungle, Recti, no plastics. And just as a shorty, feels like Sato is basically
out of the round at this point. Junko low key beat up as well. Neon trying to work
It must be, um, again, for whoever gets designated, you go home to write and get dialed all the time.
It must be so fun, dude. It looks so fun.
All five guns retain percent to play out. A pure bonus. A real opportunity to take control of the game on defense.
What a bonus bonus, honestly. You got Mary's, that lure obviously not the most well-apportioned weaponry opponent to have a heavy armor, but still...
From what I'm seeing from Mary, it's not flashy. It's really have to be, look.
Okay, no liars, arm is this time. Big buy it.
That's the thing, but they want to...
Oh.
Let's see, let's see what this is up to.
Let me turn one and do an attack.
We got Lark all over towards B.
So you kind of force them to play in this square to get info.
the spike takes so many risks on all their rounds. 50 seconds. In times of map control not too much, a little bit here.
E main control, nothing on middle. 40 seconds. 4 pass and mid push. Prowl goes outside the chamber up.
It might be out of assist here from top.
I mean they've wronged it man.
It's actually fanatic in America.
They're pretty steadfast in their anchoring.
They can find success here against Lev who are just going to be hitting these sites with virtually no time left.
17 seconds they are in.
That's hell of a kill from Neon in mid.
Just a good call from Lev.
It's hard for you to hit this B site.
Send them. Do you have decent amounts of retake potential with this double senti-com?
John has double smokes up still I like this from leather taking a lot of space here but
Redox gets like Joe on the week sato returns to get the rest of the damage you got the
saddle around he's found getting another one this outlaw is getting some value
crop silent Sen have to actually get a foothold on this b-side they're trying to work the
way it's not gonna kill that as well gone and John yeah he really can't get all that
much to support when he has this thing once again bro this guy's not going to be good
They look so calm on the 20 seconds. Dude, I'm sure people in America are used to playing against this.
That's the thing, they aren't. You can say they're taking it slow and stuff, but they're hitting the right sites every single time they're empty.
players that we were expecting to see in the league once he was of age to be here now right?
Try to find down mid, gets in that dark cover fast and...
but they were all the top. Thank you.
Oh that's a really nice shock. That is so so nice.
There's a shock for mid that goes here and then he just spams the wall.
And then he's got a shock for the right side as well, like that's really cool.
He'll go and lose the round, but it's awesome.
Ooooooh!
The floor pop in the Fade-off.
He wants to see if people are close to the nerf he seems to be waiting or not.
nullified for a moment but it's same going for this guy right oh beautiful notches
his third and Redux realizes that that faulted money has finally expired it's
gonna have to get on out of there this guy is unfortunately forced to save with
the off yeah let's do a little money checking right now what is this two
four less bonus right just too much going on it does feel like I mean the
The low buy is going to be nice, but still low buy.
This is really common.
The little shock into that is awesome.
You could do that safer, right?
Ground Spice?
you could definitely do that safe for the one he does
is Sen underperforming? um... depends where your expectations are
I would say it's pretty much where we fought
they lost big players man
I was always going to take some time
is two four case two three case and wins three one-to-one clutches and they lose the game thirteen
i mean i think people will definitely be questioning why they're here based on that now you have to
imagine since then said have been hitting the grindstone on this map and feel super comfortable
here but as of right now lab are putting them in the danger zone it's such a big give it though
of like quote unquote home map for these guys i'll be a good time out though um okay i'm
This is going to be fun. Senko, the timeout, they know they're going insanely slow. They can maybe save a bit of U2, they're not going to get faked late anymore.
So do Lev. Maybe not this round, but do they stop speeding up a little bit? Or maybe they still play it slow, but they hit the site where they actually would originally be faking?
I want to see if Lev changes up more than Senko, to be honest with you.
I already found the gap over towards middle.
Does it look like Redux might get another, at least go at a pick?
Oh, that's a freebie.
Did it against an eco?
Did it actually run into TPA across mid?
Not even a big buy-round?
really fired i mean it's very winnable
yeah it's nice to send it back to the out
Redux should have pretty much heard everything here, here's this over towards here, he knows the chamber is closed, he has a dash up towards heaven
they see the prowler here, they should go roughly where from this
yeah and that all kind of indicates what they do
great job
that's going to go crazy here
it's going to be a flood here out of elbow
of some useful timing nicely done by Ty
really nice from the right
really nice from the right, that's what you need to see the Neon do
Very very nice man. Redux did great as well as his jewel this round.
Ooh, nice shot.
from Cortezia and I feel like I think it's just great
determination you know yeah I mean that is genuinely part of the reason they
brought him in is that just change of personality that probably we should last
year when he became left I seem pretty methodical so they're probably the type
of team to prioritize old get an old send it with the old have a plan around it
Oh
I can just jump peeking
defense sides and they just pushed that little bit too far
it feels like they're doing too much and they're doing it against the slowest team in the world
yeah that is what I'm talking about
yeah it really is
I get it you're playing double duelist but you want to be angry
you want to be angry
they have limited info
but they already got to kill them
and they have a hunter's fury they have ne'er-result
that's an easy combo to get back in for a retake
I guess it's like a replay
a knee-jerk reaction
just so their money's getting lower they would have had to eat but they lose us 3k for everyone
Lev? Yeah dude I was kind of I wasn't expecting them to play like this to be honest
Like honest pretty structured
Now's good. Oh, I guess
Get a kill freeze wait for them to make a play
Just basically like fundamentals like how you meant to play. I just didn't think that he was I
Don't know. He has so many like duelist players. I thought they would like lean into
after
That's not right. Oh, he tries China feel at a time trying to intuit a window to go forward for that information
Hey, you feel like maybe they better off not doing it
But I will note that when Senpai pass me on the map
Let me talk have been rotating into the weak side and forcing Senkotsu into a faster in the academy
And maybe it's more Ken calling as well
I did love 23s. I mean, yeah, maybe there's a bit of that
K cop timeout and left corner. Oh, no, it's not one of these
I said we'll take it
these rounds here. Yeah, they are doing a good job getting entry, specifically Redux
is doing a good job at this all.
We'll point out that John hasn't been or hasn't needed necessarily to, you know, drag
signals kicking and screaming over the finish line here. He's had impact, but it's been
pretty subdued and set a hold on their own, but you're asking for a lot more than that
in a potential elimination match.
It seemed like so far John's games on Initiator are where he goes insane, which he was playing
on snap by the way I mean we didn't really take note of it but you didn't move away from the tail
there's extra control but it's back in main here's the teleport so it definitely thinks that king
that's gonna be some space giving up but redux is reluctant he wants to be close to
into a prowler okay yeah i think it's twice about that one oh it's close though
Yeah, they did a lot of damage on this.
I don't really understand that one.
Keep an eye over towards B.
or anything that is in the intention for sentencing
like this for this wall up over towards b
he's locked over towards b we can then have an all over towards a we're looking
for a mid spikes
back of a right now
full b control
i'm a little lost
spiky is caught in mid
he's looking for elderado
one of the weirdest round this
really lost their bearings in this round also spiked by the way it's just working flanking through mid
Yeah, I feel like Spikeman wasn't vocal enough or they were so focused on what they were doing up towards A.
Great shot, man.
Spike gets a kill, that's all.
Something that becomes an insanely hard retake.
John still has over flash. Did that all coming from spawn?
They got smoke down and melee.
Might just get spammed right?
I think she was spammed. Surely she's spammed that one.
Good plant, fam.
the
four on three but they just play
the
The Convergent Paths were kind of wasting as well from Lev early on.
They were playing the Cypher Retake, but they just did not have the pace there at all to get back in.
They got either way, they're official. That is big for me.
How many first kills have we seen from Sen on the second half that are resulting in 45 losses
when Lev just slowed down the game and take all this free space or find a hill somewhere else on the map?
Do you think there is merit in Sentinels being so ready to get off B, to give up that part of the map?
because I put narrated position when he was where he was pinched
He also did make the decision to push down mid out of link
He didn't need to necessarily go all the way down there
So that is him also choosing to take a more aggressive line
But the general idea there of just Cortezia back it might be smarter to place alone, but it's just news
I mean, yeah, this is this is what every me again. So like well
Maybe every other EMEA game, a lot of battery stuff.
I think if they fair enough software gets a nice little two-piece as well if they don't lose now right it means they can run to be from sport
But they're worried about someone pushing top mid I think in getting getting at them as they're trying to cross
Yeah, that's a potential problem, too
All right, so yeah
Because they want an eco round and all for be a gift when they get their players back as well
The echoes of anything all for crazy than be down. I want to see by quite a bit
still that off in the hands of redux really has turned around a game in the
second half by the way he was like must win around for some it's getting rough
out here so they take a big risk maybe not that too elapsed the longer this
goes on the less John Cena as objecting to his best friends
course still has his mobility abilities. Redux doesn't offer a sound cue in mid-range.
I think so. I feel like, um, I feel like Lev are expecting to send to go aggro again
and try and play in front of their ViP too because it does feel like they're struggling against it a
little. Spike's been changing it up a little bit, but this time he keeps his smoke.
Yeah, virtually. Now they can't be working link. Redux is calming that to his team.
Does Redux hear that action from King?
He definitely hears the jumps, yeah.
And now Lev, who were just patient over towards B.
Wait, does he only keep a smoke which side they're heading?
After Sentinel and Viper pivot towards R.S.
Redux on the line.
Good patience, he could have gone way more aggressive that round, and Ops not to.
And give up mid, though!
And of course, as the armor retreats, Snakebikers sit to lay Lev, and this is the opportune moment for the pit.
It's as hard to get into site here, old level just perceiving this right now, I mean it's
actually worth the deceivers.
Extremely sure on options in order to try and take this round away and looks like they're not going to bother
They're money a bit funny bit awkward only two against five is not odd you want to take time for some vintage
Coroad when things are going wrong just pick up the double Odin and start sparring for the corners of walls
I don't know. I mean Odin's incredible on this map
I'm shooting for a wall involved. We'll see on the replay. I'm sure but
Alright, there it is from Sen.
Double Odin knocking, I mean it's so hard to slow a default against an Odin and a Knapp.
They've learned another Odin on top of that.
Man, that was close.
Yeah, that was close.
Oh!
Odin moment.
Here's the TP across, perhaps?
Yeah, it might have been.
Alright.
16-15 for Narrow, Hazard overdrive now, ready.
Two Odins maintained by Sen.
And honestly, it feels like they've shored up a lot of their issues in that round.
love spending a ton of cash to play into this one even with a tour de force action
but that's the way wow line for neon but neither off makes the connection no
way haha in there move for the baby they jump on the angle only works for over
30 sorry it redux is a little redux sees the jump across realizes live you time
a second guessing this a push down signals might actually have to have their
chips in the right spot they've caught a pretty big rotate yeah there was a full
the aqueous of the B-side John got out of there and is now trying to slowly get back into elbow for some info there was a drone
re-clear from the same towards the other side of the road, so I'm pretty good at the moment of re-clearing what's going on
right pressure over towards mid, insta-re-clear with Redux, pressure over towards A,
re-clear with the drone, yeah I mean they're gonna fake this then go back,
probably mids every single time, they make sure this wall is actually currently in pressure
Have they learned a lesson?
Oh, this guy's selling it so well.
Oh, they're coming back.
They're coming back.
Twenty seconds.
We'll use it to the big up.
One saturate.
Yeah, it's so hard.
They're out of position.
Yeah, it's so hot they're out of position
Well, I'll be my pearl this is you can get all the way over towards that
Yeah, I'm in the tavern as well tavern to spam
Recon, Spike, pinged away, there's two wardens in the game, he's really gonna make sure he doesn't get wall banged down
We'll actually get this down to half, and here comes that right, straight forward, finds his one, and that will be enough!
They look pretty good, you gotta say Neon's play in the out here is a little too much, they kind of got the wing condition done
The two players who were so long that A site made the right decision of holding the space in front of the pit
They I mean neon just goes for a
Yeah, that one's way too much
A few rounds in a row now why?
And then never it makes the right decision of activating that overdrive to get into the
He comes from Caillou as well
That is gonna be a gratifying, validating round
Awesome turnico, oh it's gonna get real close man
From round 15 to 19, four of them being taken by Lev
Because of Sen winning one in a row
up they have a lot of change this one all over towards a now even though it's
honestly been doing so much work over towards being
they basically use their own insight they can just hold jokes
well son of God and more interested in taking the forward space there and they
have to counter the way they stuff I mean it's good to dodge the all-in
they're against my team is so good right now I think they're gonna be able to
fit the script on their normal game plan and actually at cert they're right to
some more of this space
Oh
It feels so weird watching this round, like you know they're all in, gone, to not play
heavy just stall on the jokes for so
where they take chores and aim me yeah
they're getting such a pick early
doing exactly that on a couple of
occasions to live in this game the legion
tends to balance itself one way or another
okay two goes a bit 17 now yeah has a
mental round after picking up that off
crucial kill towards spawn from him he
has really been lighting up send his
They just give them fight scants. They haven't all in, just stop them all in.
Yeah, the game plan's killing me.
As you play retake all the time as well. I mean they didn't mean to play retake, they just got owned by the late play.
Stop for a bagel and a radiated bagel of force for
The wit to see another team looks for comfy with the time going solo
Like fanatic are really good at it heretics are like pretty decent at it. These guys are really comfy as well
You guys could have just done this the whole time.
Just stop that all in and then they can't do anything.
Guys don't want to, but...
I don't know how I'm gonna get in this.
get him but how does he play around this what does it imply does neon think he's crossed
he's still watching that line there it has to maybe a white swing there it's a tie
very nice for Lev let's keep it with the positives it's good for him
yeah don't think the game comes like really great against this comp
they showed like the limpsons of almost killing it
yeah they make the solo rune look good man
The late play was impressive though, the calling from King here was impressive.
5 rounds really.
and Sen really just didn't have the answers for it.
It's the ultimate paradox, it's Levitating full of really aggressive individuals
with aggressive tendencies in a structure that is way more conservative.
They're like the youngest team in the league, you would think they just want to run around and kill everybody.
I don't know what to do about this.
It's an athlete.
It's Emerson's thematic as well, and the thing is they do look better,
like these roles suit them a little more, or at least like these agents make it.
a little bit better for sure, hitting the right on Neon might be a good, a good middle ground.
It just doesn't feel as definitive as like, out of the teams that I want, of like,
Space maker, second Jullus.
I mean, that's not even what lost him though, really. It's the game plan on the fence.
I'm super impressed with Love Hill.
There comes that kind of limited as well and they did so well early on to make sure they
could just walk into the Saints.
They ended up faking, like they have one all-in duelist end up faking with that one all-in
jawless on the other sides and then just walking in with the rest but it only
works because the time is so late like that's sick man
I think tinge can get away with another pain really at the moment yeah for sure
You gotta play to whatever your strengths are, Dior is probably the most important he
says.
Dude, we're seeing people get away with like solo neon if the neon's a bit of a beast.
Overzealous with the Prime, appreciate the 12 bombs.
Any good games from EMU and Pacific?
The Pacific games today were really sick.
Obviously the liquid game today was really fun as well, what was the other email game?
The Navi? Navi game?
Get a little one-sided.
Okay Chaby, back a little bit.
Workout time for this one? 1am?
Yeah, we'll do it. You've absolutely owe me.
I've got mad respect for that. I would be doing the same.
Okay, I'll be back in a little bit.
They get that win of map one at the end and owner something that the community has noticed
is that you guys have a slower approach to the attack side compared to other teams.
What do you think this slow approach that Leve has is successful for you?
The attack the last game was really difficult.
We took a lot of first plus, you know, I think the defense was way better.
We won 7-5 in the different bad wheels, I am Nico.
So we made our life way harder than it should be.
But it was a difficult attack for us.
We didn't play well.
Hopefully we're gonna play better in buying.
I mean, it's looking good so far.
Best of luck.
Welcome back, left-wing live in that first half.
Much of that, of course, are then playing the retake
simulator that you specifically are a massive fan of.
I wouldn't say I'm a massive fan of playing
X-ray and retake simulator,
but I will say it was very effective in this game.
I think it is really a feature of owner's coaching style
that we saw all the way back when he was playing on the,
or coaching for a very previous Leviton roster,
playing a ton of these retakes.
And I think against teams that have great retake protocols
and know how to pick at you and get aggressive,
it can get punished.
But in this game, it looked on point.
I think especially with a lot of the flanks from King,
they looked very well put together on these retakes.
Yeah, what it allows them to do is have that extra time
to set up to get the timing of the flanks
before fully activating, or to make sure your spacing
when you get back in sight is good
by slowing things down and playing together.
It helps you simplify a lot of things
that unless a team is gonna be actively challenging you,
like you're saying, they can find success.
I also feel like they were very aware
with what space they had and what space they didn't
going into those retakes, and never felt like
they were caught off guard by a player
kind of slipping in towards that elbow even saw them keep control of that elbow
making their repakes a lot easier as well yeah I mean if you're looking here at
the breakdown Saddle was such a standout like he just took over this game it's so
incredible to see him like playing this confident thing back on that way they
would get to switch things up for the first two weeks but you see that he's
right in his comfort zone back on this here yeah he looked really great on a
lot of these dive plays he's so good I think if picking the right timings that
when to pull back and when to actually commit to a fight playing the way like
which I think is one of the hardest things to balance right now this round in
particular was just great with the set play into me it was a standout game for
him and it continues to show that everyone on left is so much more
comfortable with the full roster here. Yeah I also think with his saturates they
weren't so much as team focused as we've seen other teams like Country Thieves do
but I think he did a really good job at isolating those fights with that
utility for himself and capitalizing off of it which is what we don't normally see
from Rayleigh's validation.
Yeah, now of course, this was Sentinels, my pick.
And now we're heading over to a bind.
We have seen that Leviathan played this twice already
in kickoff.
They're 50-50 on it so far.
But even in the loss against 100 thieves,
they had a really big comeback on their attack
in the second half.
Yeah, and good to show they have some of that resiliency
in the late round.
The latter half of a game, as you should say.
I think already they're the ones in the driver's seat.
They're not the ones that need to be challenged on that front
Now, as a matter of fact, it's sentinels
that are feeling heaps of pressure now.
Yeah, I do really gotta give props to Daenerys.
I think he did step it up on that knee roll,
and if you do a little bit of a swap to their bind comp,
I think we get to see the same two types.
I think he went like five and two
in first kills and first outs,
which is a huge improvement
for what we've seen when he was on that waylay.
And I think if they do adapt their comp
to what's been fitting them,
especially in this last map,
they could find some sort of success here,
even though it's left map big.
Still, I think with the changes to the composition,
we saw some of the protocols not fully be in place.
And I think one of the keys was talking back
to Love playing so much retake.
I think Sen was really struggling
to find the right fights to take in their post plans,
which I think a team that is more experienced
in the composition and roles that they've been playing
will do a better job at finding those moments.
And I do think that's gonna be key again on bond
if Love do play a similar style.
I do think it's pretty easy though,
if your protocols are out of place,
you're simply flipping back in place.
And then everything is-
Wow, everything's fixed. It seems like a very simple problem Mimi. Okay, this is why we paid
Small things each week, so I just I just figure putting things in their places is a good way to kick it off
You should have been considered coaching. Yeah
For now though, we have to make do with coaches such as Kaplan. Let's see what he had to say ahead of Mark
Thank you guys Kaplan
We're going into a map of Vine that you were second banning in the last couple matches and we haven't gotten the chance to see what can we expect from this map and also what are you expecting from the players on this map?
A nice little surprise strategically for everyone, really excited to show it. Other than that, really happy with everything we're doing. Just want us to play together a little more as those rounds develop and I really believe in the guys showing that here.
Alright, best of luck.
Thank you.
remaining positive. Of course, one foot is out the door already.
That's a lot of pressure to put on the newer players as well.
That issue, but I do like hearing that. You know,
he's coming into this map with a little bit of surprise.
I don't really know what to expect. The last time I heard that,
we saw a double Sentee Komp on her road from Kunjin Thieves.
So, I have hope. I'm excited to see what he has cooking.
Yeah. I'd be happy to see something creative here.
This isn't a map where they're having to scramble.
It is one where you'd hope that they've had some time to put something together,
But it would be a big shift in
expectation if Sen Luce here.
They're always great in kickoffs.
They were the runner up in 25.
They won it in 24.
It's their time to lock it into the roster.
I want to say something.
I know.
I was just like, that's the juicy narrative right there.
It's true.
But this has been a very different year.
Yes.
It's already four Sentinels.
They obviously feeling so much more pressure away.
What's going on here?
Yep.
God.
Oh.
Oh, I actually hate everything.
I hate everything.
And you know what?
You should learn your lesson.
Shopify or Vellion, they were all over the six, seven.
What happened to them at GCC?
They lost.
Yeah, Leviathan just dug their own grave.
Is that the six, seven courage?
Yeah, I'm just saying.
I still don't know what it means.
And I just want to distract from that.
I have so many questions.
So let's just look at something else.
How about we just change the subject all together?
because earlier you had an opportunity to talk to Kaiu about what he brings to the IGL role.
I do think one of the nice rocks is to stay calm.
You know, as an IGL you have to be calm. You have to be level headed.
Especially because if you're like running around everywhere crazy and calming like very hectic,
you know, your team's gonna also see that.
So trying to keep calm and it helps your teammates to be calm as well, especially if their leader is calm.
you know like us going get it jumping kind of be the shoes I was down bad
trip is still kind of vision how to see it through
got them all tuned in like we in the hills hold a lot of views
watch it. What they say what they
say what they say what they
see what they watch it. Hold on a
views for real just like a real
for real. Gotta re up the deal.
We got the master deal.
Matchup being levier time with
high expectations at the start of
this year but coming into this
into this kickoff without all the pieces quite there
however you know me on joins your team you dominate crew you go to win zero
and now you take the mapping of sentinels away from them
you gotta stop believing that you might be on a run
they are inversely in the mental game they're going up against the
sentinels and they're under extreme pressure extreme screaming
they're in a demand perfection out the gate and they haven't been able to live
up to that just great chamber when they're trying to get in coffee this game just have them
makings of a lead win and now the sends back against the wall in danger of elimination if they lose
bind here they need to find that resolve within themselves to actually get there as a team and
frankly i want to see more of the players on this team getting excited like they care to win this
game outside of cortezia like you're watching lead everyone's standing up it feels like they're
Into it in that way. They're hyped up. Where is that? I want to see that from Zen
I'm watching the pressure. I'm watching the pressure. That's what it feels like
Any point in believing in Zen? Sure
I mean they're trying to change stuff up, man. I think they got a little unlucky that Lev came in
Doing what they just did and crows, really
And I do think after the timeout in the second half
It should have got a bit better
We have narrate picking up the chamber. Redux is going to stay on the way.
I think it looks worse than it is right now.
In VCT this year, on this map, it's the pick of Leviathan who looked very solid thus far.
Obviously with that dominant showing over crew, especially in my mind.
And you're talking about the neon debut of being this obvious turning point for the Redux.
It's a Redux chamber. Not just the insertion of him.
Yeah, I can't say I've seen a Redux chamber, but I imagine he began on it.
He comes in first map in VCT for him.
this is actually like a big game for him right now this is him to prove that they could actually
maybe lean on him being chamber on most maps
who's farming with it in the off season yeah imagine he must be good at it
this game we don't know where their own ground is supposed to be. Maybe this we'll get a surprise
and this is it maybe they come out swinging just put the pressure on Lev. John did promise,
I told you Cap on did promise a surprise saying look look for something fun strategic leads
a paraphrase in that interview with Dryad. The composition doesn't seem too crazy it's not too
out there. Got a fun to see in there right here on the chamber. Yeah we were seeing a lot of
Redux playing chamber actually in the off season where he was. For USN the Redux were using an
offseason. Oh, okay. I thought you guys were saying the right word. Okay, we don't live
on defense, we got Sen on attack. It's a defense side of comp, so attack might look a little
rough to be honest with you. Or one pistol though, they picked the right side.
There could be your hotel reports ahead of him, but that is about it.
You're hanging around!
The great trade on this one.
Honestly, Spike's in...
He's done really well to get a kill, considering there's a jump plant.
Two techs, TP.
One pushing behind.
They've already smoked the trip behind as well, so it doesn't really matter as the
chamber's dead.
They're going to bail out some swings with the top of the spike.
Lev will not be giving into that though.
That's a shame, man.
I bet they were wishing the chamber would have stayed alive with that investment.
don't mind not having full information for a time, a time Kaeyu feels safe to stick.
He's just gonna stay alive here, can he get another?
He did it, loving the jumps from the corners right now, he's doing great.
And super slow on this, King has no smoke but obviously got wall to block.
very very nice and every attack round is important because there comes most of the defense
I didn't know I can get a bit of confidence here man he's getting that out well surely
This fight is just sticking around there, ends up getting caught, I think that's a pivotal moment in making that decision to go back and deal with Sato.
And they feel like that's fine, we can give up the space on site, we know we're gonna get on this spike wall, we're back here fighting him.
But we can just pop flash right back through the wall, we're gonna take the fight to them.
Just try to find the middles, I think I mean.
Yeah, three of four occasions from second to last day.
They make the right micro moves there.
Now it's all classics for left fully stacked up towards octagon, sentinels spread across
the map in this.
I did see a fun clip rivshared on uh, putter where you can get the poison orb inside the
satchel hanging up on the left of octagon for a one way smoke.
Oh, five man TP, uh, there it is.
Okay, well here goes the Vashall, his name's taking his hands, there it's able to find
two.
And the rest of us now know it's time to go to the top. They will be on their way there.
Yeah, but let me level take this. Kill, double all.
Closer towards the Seekers.
Hell, maybe even just throw the gun to someone else so we could take some fights with the Ghost or something and try to get some kills.
So it just depends on the situation they find themselves in, how safe it is to actually try to hold them.
They've make the lower bracket run.
Nah, I think they...
They... again, I think they win this. Who do they play after this? Is it 100 fevs?
I think 100 fevs beat them.
I wasn't... when I... when they play C9? Oh, they play C9?
It means they're watching all of them.
They'll be pretty close.
is that
He has had bounce back games. I mean in a big sense in that week one
He had a very not too bad on that they could have a fair amount of that
Match to not Santiago bound not Santiago bound. I don't think I didn't think a hunger fissure look this good
So he is definitely a I think they would be
Doesn't let one bad performance gets through his head
Let's get down to business now as Leviton finally buying in and it's a bonus round for
Send that features a number of vandals.
Pretty decent.
Yeah, with the Bible 2, the Mon round too.
Just having some ghost status.
Oh, okay.
That was...
Did he just run off meat?
Yep, just walks it down short, moves, narrate from the rounds, and so forth.
Okay, well, I just picked her on the map.
Hey, I'm telling you, someone's gotta wake up Prius, bro.
Devon is stinking.
one extra kill will be pretty big john, one extra kill, that's all you need
it's great for last money
alright, so now keo is just
on your he's great at working the map with his teleports not only does he have to aim the
off skill but he's intelligent with his teleport so he feels like he's always in the right spot
when you're watching him took the hit for the outlaw there but everybody at leviton knew they needed
to buy that full armor see it's pretty customary for your first buy route still it's gonna be not
fake clone tp but you're right aware yeah he uh imagined that yeah he did not want to get clipped
there the whole way through bro he is getting absolutely wrecked look at these last two rounds
no he has no chance man he has no chance you'd be so till it
really get on to the spike. On the Molly to follow it up. Yeah, cringe, don't plant here.
Try to go back to being, spike is still entrenched in the site.
Just move just cut noise. Seize to the next plant potentially. Probably doesn't spot out anything,
so maybe Leves think there's a chance. And they just got the fade-eye back up. They don't have any
reason to move realistically. 30 seconds. 30 seconds left. The Sentos have been in place for the
for the most part we're having a refresh of the spokesman to prevent a walk up on kaiyu he is able
to get a plan okay down as he used to that was a season in the end but the follow-up there was a little bit
clean as it was earlier must win door from john big jordan challenge
we almost do post up a little bit his called to see a kaiyu entrance you'll just have to be taken down
to one through the box that's all he's gonna get still live you time have to continue to make the
move they're up on site center just ready to drop this wall and face with multiple players off the
time
There's your smoke
Smoke Molly doesn't put the smoke on the spike and misses the Molly
Lev weren't on the spike honestly, they said I'm winning the Jaws and then lost the three Jaws. Yeah
Yeah
crazy talking king
if you're watching this, I'm on point one bro, I'm on point one
I'm on point one
man
that one here for us
yeah, I guess not
any for us a little bit
alright, so there are going to be four slots of the eco rounds
you do your 10 rounds
that's for the xl, okay
so Sandals with a good style
and everyone is starting to use this res.
The sense.
Was it 1,600 dpi 0.1?
That's way too low, man. I'm sure that...
It's too low for me.
It's the 2023 Deemum 1 sense.
Yeah, I think we'll probably be seeing that
It's safe to say it
I think they would lose to a hundred thieves
We put so many pauses inside his bad boy
He's gonna be at all could buy a third sense of those. I think that's probably something worth touching on here
This next round is gonna only really feature a bucky for redux thus far
alongside a couple of sheriffs. I would also say that you know in a hundred
fees will be EG. Yeah I think so. EG looked way better today though. It's not
like I actually feel like super confident in that. But yeah that's just not even a
part of the playing. Well I expect on this round if he dies he'll probably pick it up
in the next. I mean even if they win and they all live he might just pick it up in
the next because they're filthy rich so I feel like it's inevitable we'll get it
into the next round. Yeah post buy a lot of these Levientown players are sitting
on 3k so I should tell you everything you need to know about that situation
economically and a huge part of that is King walking up and getting three kills
as they go for that A side retake and again like some of the YouTube placement
they have to set was a little off like the snake bite from court to see it was
was short it's too far to the left despite part location was actually a
bit deeper so a couple things to sign up there again you know send maybe some less reps on this map
knowing that they would sort of walk into i think they're permering haven at the moment
well they're setting up we're good to go
so just to touch on king specifically as a player as well since neon has come back
i really like where he's been at
it's limited you have leaf sand is that what you're telling me
he was doing some roll swaps there's a little bit of duelist from him at times
It just never felt like anything was clicking for him in 2025, but now just being back on this
Exactly like him as well. Holy
Surrounded by all this talent feels like he's
Honestly, I'm just I'm just happy it wasn't on the right
Exactly the same as round three exactly the same
the pace on the dash with the dog is just not ideal and feeling like again
tough round of wind anyway you know you're walking into a wall of rifles
now walking into...
he holds us for long enough he might get a freebie
so I'm gonna be stuck guiding like here flash avoid it no info for kai you then
you didn't actually walked up on paralysis all coming to call exactly
there I thought want to be over pretty quickly all the money on this every
single time I'm not even oh yeah dude I meant to stand up for this aside from
I'll stand up now.
I think that's the most significant that occurred, so very clean here for that.
Dude, actually scammed, bro.
That's messed up.
I mean, nope, because they, I mean, the situation in which they don't bite is they just kill
everyone.
Look away, let me tell Stanley.
Okay, but because of the scam, I'll stand up for, is there an interviewer?
If it's a tuner, I'll stand up for the whole interviewer zone.
It's the best I can do.
sprinting that she did this gun nice little combo
nice little combo yeah you can look out for that one
didn't they do that last time I feel like I've seen this already from them
That's sloppy from Sen there. Redux walking through the smoke into the Molly before the flash is coming late.
It's just a miss call.
For now, Sentils again.
Down to players early in the round have to find a way to salvage.
This is one of the previous rounds, the exception of the better weapons at least for the attackers.
Here's some angle campages. Seekers on the site.
At least all narrowed with a chance, but King Baxite able to shoot him in the side.
He's looking dangerous. He's just getting melted, though.
Everyone just gets melted, don't they?
Easy come, easy go! 9-in-1 for the ITL.
Sand are just being relegated to these slow contact rounds
because they're losing players early every single time.
Uh, Ralph, thank you so much, bro. Thank you, thank you.
Oh, my.
They just get their anchors on the right parts.
That's it from the scumbag.
Teleport. They didn't even come down.
I mean, this was just two players able to straight up hold back.
that playing off each other really well we've seen blows actually he plays that
elbow side of that really well we saw that against crew yeah he was he plays it
off angle out in the open he steps out a bit further past the smoke like takes
good timings out of the smoke so all that all right well they have pretty much
one round away from getting max money
little worrying for them yeah it's kind of faking for those since they TP away
hold right back into that B-side, said those are allowed to play the game. Finally.
Well that smoke is going to deny Nerets ability to play much of the game on once. There is an
aggro pick from Sato and jump spot. That's going to be virtually impossible to hit.
Yeah, he's seen enough. I mean King hit it with the Guardian last round, but our last map
it's gonna be a oh wow okay don't be refracted out already
you can't be repeating you got all you got all
you got all how are we getting where is it
dude you just don't expect it because they shouldn't be happening
man that is brutal stuff for Settler they are no closer
to having a part of the world earlier and here comes the pressure
here comes the stall you till feels like Lev might just be dealing them
a slow, painful death blow on this bind that they have been
choking about man
beyond dominant in the first kill game
something
look at the setting here for sandals blows avoids that pressure and seasons
redox in place
oh it's converting past from Sato now no chance to recover there is a total force in play and that deals with king
but he has to go to huge here
full play save between him and the end of the round there's no chance to bomb
disrespect
my guy's 16 HP and he's doing this
4 maybe
again he is absolutely living up to it
he is in demon form today
best player, performing player on road and now
what is this?
he's trying to take the crown from him here but
I thought maybe it's like
ohhh
he's gonna be on the way back
so I'll try to use the path there
or he can just step forward and get another kill
he just insists on remaining and then picks up a more aggressive off angle
and he's like okay well all smiles for owner he's been chilling with live
academy brings a couple players into the league gets himself back in the league
and now he just watches youth soccer team ball out in every single game okay
they're keeping it simple the straight-up sighthead on this one
here's redux take some stuff off the box a bit of a variation of the normal dive
if Sharls can tell you bro it's hard to put on on this one oh they just beat the
Molly though and aren't easy to plon with the plon it gets all double all in us
I mean, yeah, I was gonna say now this surely is they really just wanted to stop and delay the plan
And it's pretty much what they do the whole time
A lot of pressure behind on this now
John, they've got a Molly. Did he just miss the Molly?
Doesn't matter.
Could have been bad, yeah. Could have been bad.
This is kind of interesting though. This is like, I mean they just managed to get the spike down before.
The whole thing that I do here over towards a is just try to stop stop the plant the whole time
And when you kind of do this in Prax as well like say say that Prax go too well
And you you just stop the plant the whole time you need to just make sure that you have additional Prax on
over there like
Actually just let them plant so you can kind of just retake him
It does look like they're usually normally to stop the plants are pretty insane
I'm not saying that, but it has happened because we look pretty good in the retake, but...
Spike has to get bigger.
Ooh, maybe two in a row.
He gets another kill and gets a roll by the way.
This kid's too good, bro. This kid's too good for my liking. He's too good at util, he's too good at aiming.
One more round lost, the economy is straight back to the bin, and it's going to be a while until they get those real power ults back online.
He stayed all in the half, it's round 10.
Redux and Gondi kept one orb.
Probably never going to have them unless one of them gets a bunch of kills.
Around like this, that's looking less and less likely.
By the second.
Now, far be it for Lev to get another first skill.
They love those moves.
And I think, I don't know, you saw Kai there on the way back?
Loves the round the world. Oh, it gives you information. You shouldn't really have access to I don't if he sees pie there
But because of the fight for war
Turn the flash oh first kill there we go for san narrate
Little bit
Takes the challenge again for me with confidence now. I'm sure he is able to dodge away from that saturate
He hasn't really given up the space. You're all actually to spot all five by the way. Look at some of my HPs man
If you might be coming in here young pressuring from the flag as the pit comes in the night ball comes in God
This is impossible to play into me on
Doesn't even get a chance to get
Just there really
small
Sometimes you'd be pretty happy that you got that many outside of them basically all classics and the headhunter from narrate
That means the round up nightfall drift
Okay, they'll take it
Happy? Yeah. No, they should be. It's a good eco. It doesn't feel like it, but it's a good eco.
Jesus.
Oh, so they didn't spot him before that.
It's kind of just been that guy.
And honestly, not by anything wrong, really.
And you see, Gets up, they spend four ultimates on the winning
around.
He's a good medic.
The timeout's scared, man.
You got to tell him it was a good eco.
I probably won't believe you, but actually it is, man.
Three ult's out.
That's huge.
He's usually in his expectations.
That interview with Dryad earlier on,
said he's actually pretty happy with what he's seeing.
I don't know how you can exit kickoff at this stage of things
and maybe maintain that happy feeling or satisfaction.
all of the globals that now has them under this level of oppression, victims of their
own success right now, you want to play out of a timeout, narrate ultimate ops, can this
be their fourth round, after we mentioned they got three ults out of lev so nice fingers.
In no much confidence it's the original setup, pretty sure they're expecting some kind of
aggro off to the uh... attack timeout
so some stall you till for a levy attack, they might actually
yeah they might not get too much for this
there's a little crazy to play this close, normally you don't do this against the um...
ok, unnecessary, just not feeding
normally people don't play so aggro along against the um, where they but
yeah they gotta invest a smoke into that one
really really nice
no looking that good on blind yeah no looking that good on blind
most people when they're heavy going over towards here will
at least when they play against an op they'll talk this
in the half two rounds left they have the loss bonus
try to see if you can get a crazy kill
yeah you gotta smoke this one
they've long out further than neon was actually holding for them for the
odds they got no money man you know uh somewhat of a risk taken there but
so if you lie on this end
really impressed when you just don't miss shots
Well, I'll make you sure that he is everywhere this time. It's an aggressive push up in the showers
It's a different every single round. He really is putting a lot of work into bearing that approach
This
Yeah, I think there's an awareness from spite the highly skilled team man. It's a man of the round really really
I'm no foul with that lost one player acceptable. You just set that casual 14 and four another orbital strike to end the half
Well place teleports. He's in the right place at the right time all the time. Yep
He is asleep around a steam and it signals are grappling with
Swipe of all it's a get-up on short and that rates unlikely to expose himself to me on me a future
He on spot it now
That was just a little too late.
Ooh.
That was fun.
Shots him down
Guys don't lose the round man
Back to back over towards that lambs direction. Spike needs to get busy
Didn't get the yanks, but that has to be enough from there a percent to give four rounds here
Time is ticking spike cloud up to tap the spike steak bites
Difficult to get not getting clanked double face forward
All trying to make that first half a little bit more respectable, but it felt like
Classic Moskvin pistol. King, 14-5.
from redux takes that teleport really fast to rotate back and that gave narrate the timing to
get forward and get those kills to take some of that space because it baited neon away
moment right there is huge and then also just the solo way there yeah man and just
it takes it takes a lot of it takes a lot of work i think to get it going
going. Prime ad reads, yeah go on then, who have we got? We always use TnB at the moment,
I'm glad he called it. Okay chat, if you're watching on Twitch you can go over towards
here, on a full screen you can see if you have a free Prime sub, it's not going to cost
you anything, you don't get any ads, you can rewind. Get a little slugger next to your
name you support the channel you might have forgotten about it and check it you can support
the channel it won't cost you anything no ads for a month
um aturo with the prime thank you so much for the 14 months thank you thank you tana
as well with the prime as well thank you for doing that thank you so much I appreciate
you guys thank you so much for doing that
chamber yeah I mean the chambers a hit on the last one it's so hard to make it's
so hard to make so the way they work on they got it they got to do a couple of
things to make it easier like that long take there you got to invest a go to
invest the brim smoke you got to force them away you have the brim smoke so
it's hard for them to re-clear you're gonna get info that they're re-clear then
you can go over towards the other site. You can have one close to here if they
reclear it then you know that you should be pulling back. They just don't give
themselves good opportunity to do it. It's impressive when I watch 100 fees
do it man. The Matina is so good at it. Especially their long take they should
definitely watch 100 fees. Or do their long take.
Let's send those two Madrid, were they? One at all.
225, similar story, great start to the year.
Thoughts in the NINBIR roster.
NINBIR roster, it's getting us through.
I think I'm gonna win a trophy this year.
All of the year has never been in more doubt.
A brutal first half with a pistol round one,
Shaw conferred it on, and then things got ugly,
and they got ugly fast Wyatt.
It feels, I don't know, poetic, ironic,
something that in this very moment,
It's narrate putting the team on his back lunar is tired with the prime. Thank you so much Luna. Thank you
Don't know but they came from here changes as well with the gifted. Thank you for doing that also me
Thank you so much man across the finish line
Must win pistol and they are running it from sense straight out of who turn it does hang off
Okay, nicely. Oh, right 2v4. Good amount of damage done, but it's himself further than the map
He's definitely expecting live to angle
Very very nice, right? Maybe it's on
Thank you so much for the prime as well. Thank you for the two months and James as well James Tien
Call it for the map free already. Yeah, that's not good ahead of ourselves
It's a much better. It's a much better compound defense
on this attack cycle of your time is that on defense it's so active right neon's always on some part of the map
Brad's incredible with the reminders
the tempo is
the inverse of what you would expect to see
I don't know it feels like we just keep talking about it over and over but it is just so funny that you have
the most cracked out children on this team and you have them playing the most
Disappointed
even the league right now when you watch them oh that's easy for redux
spark walked into that I think uh levitado trying to get this one going pretty quickly
so there was no just crossing under hooker and he's picked off
looking at spot though yeah that's good now levitado at least get a plot so
starting to hang your hat off now they will eventually have to deal with the redux and hooker
I'm taking a 35, we'll make a sweet exit now as the wall is rather permeable to those spectre shots.
Nice and easy round for Sen, left wall field, and we've got the 1st, 1st, 2nd, 5th Classics.
That is exactly what Sen needed to accomplish. Good for Redux to get another one on the board.
at the end of the first half but he really did turn things around once he started playing
defense on Corode.
That's going to be done here.
I mean, really, you're going to need less, I mean, we're going to need multiple Sen players
to get online if you're a Sen fan.
They have been struggling outside of Nara.
Nesquiz gone and got us all of the ages of the top five youngest teams.
5 BBL, Nongshim, A.G. Farrell.
The 5 oldest.
Team Secret, T1, G2, Fnasy, B.T.
Team Secret are like 2 years above everyone else.
Criminals.
deeper moves they can just claim it for free I do think this this play towards
be long for signals is the more compelling part of their setup here
Cortez in there they're next to each other on stage and next to each other over
the telephone you rarely see a double right side
kind of be a nice little bay around take the TP freely they can not check the
Oh, Cortez had an opportunity there to do something nasty.
He was trying to bait, but he got baited.
That's it.
That is, what would you say, poetic, ironic?
Something like that's rough.
So now, Senna's not having any players pulled off of that ace site, though.
They're kind of happy to leave Narad over at B.
We're doing a great job on Corota of just dragging those rotates to the exact wrong site.
deep smokes
you want to take back site?
maybe they see deep smokes
oh that's nice, they caught him, they caught the spike, that's a run done
yeah, that's might be a...
Yeah, it might be some running a little, but this is nice. They were fast on the double TP here to chase
There should be a great spot man, the fans side of the pond.
Yeah, essentially just gave up.
There should be a comfortable spot here, Neon shows himself, Cortez again very quickly makes that adjustment.
Close with the craft band, might want to weapon upgrade if he can get it.
Spike trying to get in close down with his stinger.
Jon is on the hunt and yeah, that Odin for Caillou certainly going to be wrinkling the plan for Levitan.
They might run away a bit, Lev should get a little closer to the ult when they come alive.
Really solid hold there from Cortezia back site
Redux goes one for one bit of delay rest of the rotates come in
Ready for that rush over top
And into this round soon by the way
Two ults to play with so they are
In a good position
No sleep tonight. Hello, we've got a Tino earlier. He'll be fine.
It does, uh... I mean, this is probably going further in my play.
Yeah, I don't know if he hit on this one as well, not bad.
Yeah, there we go.
Remember now you start thinking about first a little bit start thinking about that map number three of this
Creeping at the edge of our periphery
Because leviathan don't have any more business trying to play into this route
Another map by the way two or three in the pool that led just and I haven't played it
Before the series only four different maps
Imagine we are gonna be here for the next 40 seconds they should time out after this is all
They're struggling a lot and they're getting picked off.
I wonder if they have set strats they can lean back on.
It's going to be an eco maybe, I mean instead the two guns do their work,
but they can definitely try and get that where they are online.
We will have...
I mean, it is just a struggle for them right now.
I'm trying to pick a map to go to as a home map.
The pool is...
They put so much work into trying to shore up their Corode.
It feels like...
These were picking it against them.
You know, they end up...
It's not going to have the fees on that map.
Well, EMEA thinks he can.
He can't run this company.
We've spent so much time on trying to shore it up.
Let's make it...
our strong point instead the first outing percentiles and kickoff here on
five is looking good after a really rough first half see what happened to
Kilser so at that same time there was the play down a short with the paths that
then redux opted to not overplay a wise decision they already got the kill
elsewhere and yeah definitely needs a lot of help if they're gonna bring this
one back. Again, they're getting like a couple of rounds from the ults, probably the round
off to next. Then they're going to be really seein'.
much action and overstaying. Redux play a lot of top mid on that map. Really patient despite being
on a duelist, despite I'm sure the temptation to go forward and try and make something happen.
I think Settles realizes how important it is to have stalwart anchoring on the A side. And Redux
has shown so many what he's on. When you think about it, if you practice only five maps, you'd
always have a majority of good maps. Yeah. Don't put himself too much on the line. It should be a
process when you join a team, when you join a team and you have like a week or two weeks
to get to an okay level, it should be Parma Vito and two strong maps, then you get okay
at the others, that's basically how I would always do it, then you're always a map up
with one of these, maybe you can get it for the third map, and then you can hold your
own hand, and then you have like a base you can build off like, you should always have
focus on two months
That should be the process
No way oh my god you dream about this stuff
On the last round, it dealt with Cortezio, and they were running that play, it'd be long.
Exactly, yeah.
The same, the same look, you bet.
Right.
There, he posted up on short.
Again, but this time...
Nice shot.
Yeah, they're looking a little bit like NRG, right?
Tries to go for the Foddercore stuff, and it doesn't work.
Clearly, they start calling, um...
Start calling fast traps.
It looks like Santa pretty much on top of it.
down john at least yeah and even at that it's just blowing out they're going to win it they can
just give this to the whaley right there it is john gets at the heart despite the molly being in
play and saddles be able to finish the job brilliant three rounds in a row if not more
we've got to be feeling themselves now uh completely nice we're mostly there
i come back in christmas sometimes all again he is just repeating exactly a couple of months
as well for the level level
i'm a gay feeling it
give it a remote man man i like it
This angle risky. Yeah, he doesn't fully commit to it
Why is it the fact that let me talk trying to hit the hard and fast and caught to see it was there to help?
Dave's a showman perfect spot. This message. I'm to kill
message on the land. I'm not going to show you a dashing forward to try to catch an airy. They really just have that set up
I can't believe I'm saying this we might be heading off to abyss
I'm not very unlikely in this first half
I'm not sure if I'm blown. He's actually just a walk down right now. It really is
They do have some cheeky little games, but there's deep inside.
We didn't see it on attack, we were questioning.
Why did he say that in a halftime interview, but...
But even outside of the double stacks they've been putting together,
that move from Cortesia being positioned to help out,
now right, in the case of a fast push, that's just really nice.
Ah, yeah, well yeah, if it wasn't for that Molly, it would have been the next one, so...
Molly and Snakefight.
That's a lot to deal with.
It's a King on the Stinger, nothing more.
Nothing like a feeling of your entire team dying while you're on the lurk and then they're all watching you just slowly
That's kind of what narrow was dealing with last week a lot. I
Will say I look towards the ultimate in his next round both teams
I've got to be totally quite a large number of them
And every time I are equipped at least to fight to stay in this game, but boy, you know this change is changed very quickly
Have I watched in the best today's
Yeah, I wish one, man.
I thought I'd die to the guy.
I mean, they should at least get one.
of course gonna pop some of these ultimate
nice and simple from way off the back of it
yeah they want to try and pin for the taxi in the pit right now if they can
haha
they reacted way later it was pretty good
but he just gets caught up
I was trying to get back onto this B side of the map it's gonna be spiked going forward
that was an A that was the lurk player
the action is definitely Q at B for levieta
it's 3 on 4 percent nulz in which I have to get a lot of space back
back trying to work through elbow right now on account of the trailblazers are going forward so
Kyrie at least knows it's relatively safe. They've got elbow, Kyrie's back up in there.
Can he fight against multiple players though? Yeah, here comes an orbital strike.
Oh, I think he was seized as well. He's given just enough room.
He's given with the combos though. Here comes Jon steps up, being quiet.
He's still a sharp fade away. King Notch is free. A costly round for Levitan.
A lot of ultimates, a lot of plays down, but they are going to stay in this game.
He's got some confidence there. He needs to swim off that.
The King just will not give up.
Three chances in this, but do they have no odds?
You just can't repeat this round.
All they just try to circumvent it, play around into sight, and then eventually crunch Cortesia,
where they have blows working up B-long at the same time.
They choose to give up Elbow just to make sure they get a big orbital strike.
King very animated there as well, despite fragging out for...
Yeah, they just don't have the ult to the enemy, should we not run?
They're all with the backup judge.
Ooh.
it easy assembled now i want to be ready for that all fangirling is going to be like down
i'm lucky to be alive dude both of them are kind of lucky the shot was insanely close
and so i was like oh don't lose now boys okay react trying to make a play through the tp and then
all the way back that is bold bold and confident from redux and he's rewarded for it
now let's see if he's settled a little bit now it feels like we're right back to where we started
We did dodge the best today, well almost
One kill, putting the slow off though
It might, might own it for him
I'm hearing all the stage behind me from Leviathan. I'm trying to put it together
You gotta get him out of money so they can go for this
They might get a fade-off for the next round and then there would be low money after
WQT hits right where it hurts fast straight from Cortez King tried to swing off of that
But just gets removed from the server. I believe the sky smokes get him back into the site
Now into the p.m. So fade on low copy answering. That's the little
Vipro with the cub
Don't hate it redux trying to make a bit of a move
What is it here? Looks like he satisfied with some exits good weapon for it
That's for sure try to keep a lead on that leave me time economy
And neon saves the off they don't do it fade all though
Left starting a heat up a little bit when I'm getting scared from the maximum pressure of getting on to close out
Now it's a little harder rounds in a row to get there all by runs can be against the fade all and then
It's gonna be low by
Crazy kill from Sotha.
Man, his aim is just...
He's still to watch it. It's just pretty as crispy.
King of course, I would get so many of these multi-kill rounds. He's up to 21 or 30. And we are approaching
that zone in Valorant
where you're trying to make a comeback that the other team eventually get some ults to play with.
So Lev will have to deal with Seekers and they're gonna have to deal with I think crucially that orbital strike.
We could see a moment from Sen where they do go for the saturate play trying to get back in on the side when they take it.
Orbital strike someone who got those kind of options now.
Senna, I refuse you to move off their line so far.
I mean they don't need to. They know that Leve plays slow.
The thing that I like from Sen at the moment is that I don't really use too much util.
Jon still has two smokes. He can hold onto this for ages.
They want to bait someone from sin into the jump peak get more info you guys have had a positive D4 for
45 seconds
Yeah, they're taking showers control there where they just have the offer gets made this means though that that play up
Hey, this is the sequence is about to reveal what they're doing watch it unless they try right now
Things and slow some more small windows two of the towards side fatal hits no one
to move John out of the way now I can't keep it into a failure John did help him though orbital
strike at the ready let's go on to the spike location it's blows it moves off and there's king
taking down the ensuing chaos now back on top of the steam beacon oh they lined up sprays him down
he's like maybe you have smoke you put that down on the side blows found redux now it's gonna be tough
for sentles to buy out of this one but look how low spike and blows out this is doable
No, not only on HP.
Oh, what's their buy going to be? Like 2-9?
Oh, they're not direct.
They're not direct.
What is that? A couple of light armors. I mean that's it. It's only light armors in the
guardian it's basically a full bang we get no orcs into this round at all that
her maybe all goes a bit on to one go one life
Let's get it in their hands and let one of rip it away
Trip over towards octagon from a narrate and double posted up with Cortezia who is fully tucked
So they want to join you dick this tank around send want to go for another bait play the suffocity is not there
Around the world get back over to the A side
speed up a lot of it
how have these two missed each other?
how have they missed each other?
does he get 2 for the flam?
bros after that, he's thinking about showing
Oh my god
I was so nervous for this bro four chances man four chances for seven oh boys
Yeah, I thought he had his own
was able to get it after the fact it's just cannot believe the timing that
happened on this round
I mean he can't believe it but also he's just thinking whatever gods you might
believe it that it was able to connect that for him with first it both by off and
overtime as well surely they're not you'll like time for their kickoff life
They played the timing? Yeah, dude, that was insane.
I don't even understand how it happens.
Oh.
at the moment the teleport back over the standard set up for me to provide that
pop support on either side of the map shower controls from there as well
so I just have that for free the whole left person is so interesting we can
cross the site now there is a smoke obscurity advanced the whole thing for
leftists to stop them from things the full five on the last king it's a kill
Molly into a saturate they force them into a saturate and then on top you have a
faith and you double dash over here to see the numbers I said earlier that
they maybe hadn't practiced their retakes because their whole comp is made
to stall the plan and then they show this
Nice to watch man. It was actually beautiful.
Oh god.
I'm going to avoid reddit for the next two days.
you till be thrown
if that goes over to a shop and they want to be surely not
Hey, you know there's a stack here. You've been calling great. What does this guy do?
They're gonna make sounds, then Spike goes back. Oh, they are, bro.
They even tricked me with this one, to be honest.
And now the spike is heading over to A to bait the right read wire.
Sato's control shower this entire time.
They're mad at your back center.
But it's my brim faking.
My brim's lacking.
They need smokes on A.
Yeah, like, come on for one.
Caillou has fallen.
We're going to have to get into the side of this place.
Oh, god.
It's going to be short.
12 seconds.
Blush out.
That kill from Sada could be everything.
Reaverx is a little bit too slow to stop the plotter.
And the lurk's so late, they're just
going to delay a little bit.
That's all they have to do.
That's what it just means to not die. That's all you have to do.
Oh, that's not right.
Oh, boy.
Lovely. I had a lovely comeback.
You better give him that lovely comeback.
And we avoided the best today.
Continues his journey status out of there
This leg team are the real deal neon comes in they've got all the talent in the world
But you can't help but feel for a sin
It lost an OT. It's a really bad loss man
They were the ones making a late come like I thought they were gonna lose like I didn't want to see a lot like this
This is like one of my most painful ones the storming back into that second half
Just as they all got belief
They just all got that belief to then get shattered again. Oh my god
We talked about it, but Leviton may well find themselves on a run. They are still alive in this lower bracket
opponent
TBA
They've now advanced across into a matchup against cloud
Nine white. Oh, it's gonna be fun. I played them already. Yeah tomorrow
They played them already, but
Did they play them already?
Yeah, he had a good map.
It's really heavy for the late play really on some, it's the first time they come up against
the late play.
Like C9 with a demo, shouldn't fall for that stuff.
The no demo, the first time you go up against fanatic playstyle, oh my god.
Get these little two-player setups making use of chambers ability to get out and leave an insert player behind on some of these close corners
And it really does work in some important rounds
The leviton a fire on all cylinders John QT doesn't really seem to be in the game today
No, right, honestly for me
Questions for Kaplan. Oh my goodness questions for Kaplan
But it's it's far from enough at the top result here. I think lever it's so modal, right?
When you go on this offense side, look at how they're swallowing the game down pulling sentinels around the map and all
It's, uh, me.
Haha, me.
It's, uh, I mean, there's probably a lot.
Questions for Captain?
Yeah, this is such a devastating loss.
That's words are really nice.
You ask about the role changes?
I mean, the role changes are fine.
was kind of their undoing at points as well they just weren't able to find a
home they kept coming so close i feel like i'm making the heading in the right
direction because they're at least heading in the right direction in my eyes
the bounce back after that first match it must be so important they have so much
expectations it was amazing to see but sadly just not enough for them at this
kickoff and it's the first kickoff in two years i kind of want to know what was
was called in the second timeout. Second timeout on 2-5-7-0. I can't even remember what was
called in the second timeout. Corrone.
that they won those rounds that matter the most.
Neon, felicitaciones por la victoria.
Esta fue una partida en el que forma de que no has perdido
ninguna partida hasta ahora, fue muy peleada.
¿Qué hace que ganese sus momentos más importantes?
A ver, más que nada, nosotros en un momento más difíciles
intentamos tener calma al 100%, porque por más que está
peleada, nosotros sabemos que nosotros ponemos nuestro
propio rindo de juego, así que intentamos siempre hacer
eso, por más que estemos perdiendo o ganando,
He's saying that the main thing that we have in those difficult moments is we just stay calm, we know that we can force our own game no matter what so in those moments we know that we can adapt and just continue playing our own game.
Now for the second question that I have for him is what is it like to be a player
under King, a player that has been a legend and that had an incredible performance today?
What does he have that other teammates maybe in his tier two career didn't have?
Algo que vemos mucho es como se resalta King como Highele, que tiene él como compañero y como Highele
que tal vez otros compañeros que han tenido no han tenido.
He has a lot of experience and the thing is that on top of that he's also a captain inside and outside of the game, so that is what makes the difference.
My last question is, that next match is going to be against Cloud9 and the first time that they played, he was not here, so now, what is he going to take to win against Cloud9?
Who does he think is going to win against Cloud9?
My last question is, that next match is going to be against Cloud9, and the first time that they played, he was not here, so now, what's he going to take to win against Cloud9?
Who does he think is going to be the biggest challenge to beat?
The next match is going to be against Cloud9, but the first time I played against them, you weren't playing.
What do you know about Cloud9? What is your favorite game? And do you think there are any stars in the team that caught your attention?
I don't really pay attention to my opponents, I just focus on myself and what I'm doing,
so I don't really know what to tell you, I'm just going to focus on myself.
This is everything that we have for the interview, Nia, thank you so much, come here once again
for Nia.
He's gonna teach me all the only other things I care about the way.
Thank you.
But that being said, this is everything that we have for the post match interview.
Let's send it back to the desk.
Put that down.
Dude, we get a decent amount of sleep.
Five hours, 20 minutes until Pacific.
That's nice.
Welcome one and all two match points.
Um, okay chat, give me a streamer to rate.
Give me a streamer to rate.
If Rob Moore was in your chat, what advice would you give him?
I would say that at the end, the result doesn't look as bad as it actually was.
You're on the right track, I think they kind of, I think they need to sort out their jewelers
a little bit.
They need to sort out their jewelers a little bit in terms of someone has to be the, one
has to be the selfless jewelers.
But I think they're on the right track with it.
here you guys are going to cook up with a cook that's all i would say an official
ref you mean the result is better than it looks i mean the result is better than
it looks no no no they are you guys ready if the result isn't as bad as it looks
are you guys cooked are you gonna i mean they got too nil'd me
it doesn't look that bad then the progression was good but like honestly
what happened with sen is first of all they changed the lock that's a big thing
i think their first original meta read wasn't great
and then they tried to pivot and then it didn't really work midway through and
then they're like a their last minute pivot here was like in the right direction
I think that the rate can't be the selfless dualist they need to try
set them up with this and I think that's where they were pivoting to at the end
Yeah man, I mean it's just a, it's a bad meta read with the big game and then they're just playing catch-up.
Essentially what's happening with fanatic and heretics, but they tend to run it a little bit faster.
Um, okay Jack, give me a streamer.
He's so lucky.
Kane's playing ranked.
What's his uh, what's his, what's his twitch?
Hot hand.
Oh.
Slow warp.
Is that what it's called?
I don't think so.
It's not an ability.
No, no, no.
I just thought word is not an ability.
Keep on gotwing.
I mean, say, give me any guy.
Okay, yeah.
