you
I mean I think for me it's all about the individual
Oh is that off of the haven that's so nice dude
On the same side for Zeta, I think when you're the underdogs like this I want to see them guess rock
I want to see them be aggressive, really not like DRX settlement in the game
We do have the map Vito coming out, Zeta in vision picking Haven now
But DRX is the map we've not seen from them yet
So how do you feel about this for Zeta?
Um, for Zeta it's going to go into the unknown here
So I'm just going to be...
Dude I forgot the YouTube chat
that one and then for the find it's good that we just spoke about the find and then we see the split
as well for the third so that's everything that we just talked about we'll hopefully see some of that
where TRX definitely thought that there was some weakness from Zeta from my POV I'm looking at it
oh they had some good macro but they were not winning rounds right so they're looking at that
and thinking there's something to exploit and then split being the decided both teams feel like
they're kind of comfortable to go on to split it makes sense for Zeta. America starts today yeah
Yeah, America starts two hours earlier today.
Yeah, I mean, I think this week will be very good for DRX.
It's just a little bit more of an unknown.
Yeah, we get less sleep, man.
But honestly, we got some okay sleep last night.
Big question mark for me, but I think...
I think I am a little faster than Byron.
Yeah, I think he gets himself into the game.
DRX will be good.
Yeah, he seems to be at a bit of an axis point for DRX also.
Because coming in as a new guy, of course,
you have Bane as a new IGL,
but as a new guy, you get to add that new flavor into this team, all right?
Hey, I'm all for lots of flavors here today
I mean if you have Zeta taking on DRX in our first match of the day
So let's send it to the stage to kick off today's matches more elimination matches to come
Let's find out who is going home and who's staying okay?
Set up
more yay. Thank you so much for the tier one and
Robbie Robbie BK good see Robbie. Thank you for the tier one as well man. I hope you don't write
of
five
it definitely had worse. Is that run this one? Yeah I think this is a step too much
for Zeta, but it will at least be a good match to kind of gauge where they're at.
If they get a map, that'd be pretty good. In my head this is a DRX 2 now though, we'll see.
They normally just get aim-difts. Well, let's say that. Some maps they just get aim-difts.
Um, took a little bit of a lot of time with those two builds.
You believe the mini? I mean that's your first mistake, hun.
The first mistake I've done. Uh, leggings from the K1, pre-send the 23 mums. Thank you for that.
There's a good time to strike, it's probably now.
But of course, this is a kickoff stage and this is DRX.
They've taken this before.
I'm pretty sure Mako's like, we've done this before.
We can do this again.
This DRX has gone from the main integration before.
But something that's never changed
is that they're always one of the top teams of the Civic.
Yeah, DRX coming into today is the favorites.
They have no doubt about that.
Good bitch wearing the wingman hat.
He's got the wingman thing, it's done.
He's channeling that chop.
Yeah, it's done, bro.
Yeah, it's a whole new jersey.
Yes.
I thought it was a new jacket thing.
I think it is. It's like you always have an iconic blue and it's a kind of like a blue.
Next later, thanks for watching the full mom's fun. Thank you, thank you.
No, you're welcome.
You're kind of just associated.
New jerseys, yeah, they're kind of nice.
You have high energy from both of these teams and I see like all smiles as well from Mako.
I read by the way that Mako is like trying to be a little bit more reactive.
Paper X colors, yes. Paper X colors, but I think that's something he's trying to improve.
A little more chill and up than some of your paper X jerseys.
Stand up and be out of the way.
Oh, that is going to be a milestone in Pacific if we actually see Mako standing up and actually, like, you know, say something to the other team.
Can you just imagine?
Oh, I'd love that. I would love that so much.
Yeah, we just saw our map beta once again.
We will be starting off on Haven, but DRX isn't entirely unknown yet to play it.
Here in kickoff, we just spoke about the variety of styles this team has showed.
So it is a really big question.
You know, Termi was, has always been a fantastic coach held in very high regard.
and in my mind they wouldn't kick off last year because they figured out Teo before anyone else
he has good reads on the meta so i really am curious what way it is
it's in puffins and icens yeah there's um there's quite a few down south to be so
sometimes the perfect amount of cook but at the moment the one thing i do have a little bit of a
feeling for DRX that this game has a little bit more pressure for them and i feel like there's a
little bit more expectation going in into this game for them where they're expected to go much
deeper in this tournament where Zeta can have a little bit more of a free feeling in terms of just
go out there and give it to DRX. Go give your best performance here and then just take that
confidence from my team secret right now. No, you're absolutely right because DRX as we mentioned
they're the defending kickoff champions. They want to make sure that they step onto that stage and
they're at least making it to Santiago or lifting that trophy but DRX with the free kick.
Talking about
They're bringing up double initiates a breach tail breach is not an agent
We really see any more here for civic in my mind
Certainly one of the weakest with this solo jewelist way late nothing
For some a control I think the beat for the a control and the first thing that I thought is just kind of similar to that
This concept fanatic used to play
It is a very curious what they've got cooked up for this because it's a very very old-school approach with that breach
It will be all about setting up Hyunmin with this kind of powerful util
Poolset really, but we don't see this anymore. I'm very curious if they throughout you know
Practically gets a breach recently to be honest
Well, maybe they do to remember if there was this complex a little bit
probably, well, I don't know if it's coach, but it's probably a mini purely because of
Boster, I would say. The problem is that EMEA defined most of the meta for the first
two years. So it's hard to know who made what. Like we stole, even the iSports comp that
everyone used for like three years. We stole that from a scrim. Oh, Spanish team? I don't
know if it was Giants or one. But it's a little different. But Buster definitely has
like every majority of the time on the meta this is probably the last one for one.
They've kicked that file.
Ah, that's it.
Thanks so much for the T1.
I'll see you in the next video.
Bye bye.
That's it, thanks so much for the tier 1, I'll see you in the next tier 2 months.
Why does paperfinnit look like a bonbon though then?
Not on really, he's got a card again on it.
pretty good for DRX.
And that is usually what we do come to expect from DRX.
But it's a little bit of a waffle yourself.
OK, yeah.
If you get more involved in the hunt.
One kind of changing piece for them,
but Flashback ends up being a pretty critical one for them.
Hermes, so fighting is budding and has been a thing.
What's more for this squad than we
might have anticipated coming next season.
So how about versus me?
We're about to find out.
You hear that music?
It means it's time to go ahead and get the game underway.
High pressure, I agree with what the desk was saying DRX very much have the owners on them
They have the expectations on them to be the one to come out on comes around to the table one
Thanks so much for the time. I'm sure all day the shoulders
Pratt and surprise us and pull off one monster of an upset and what an upset it would be
All time only taking three map wins over
DRX just the one that series victory all the way back at masters Reykjavik in
2022
So to win here on this stage pursue deeper into this kickoff gauntlet
And eliminate DRX from kickoff in the process
What a statement that would be for this Japanese org as we are pulling out all the stops here down on stage
And Saturday evening as we jump into the action on Haven
Yeah, this is how it's been a long time since they've even played in 2024, I guess, and
it is going to be quite interesting.
And we've started to see improvements from Zeta.
Well, that doesn't help.
It's a high pistol win rate.
Zetran defends DRX on attack.
I guess the B-Sports as well, looking pretty good on this map, it was 13-11.
That was off of the early info camera.
And this trip means that he's going to move soon.
So because of this, you would imagine the reaction is approaching.
Have you heard of retake?
It's pretty hard to answer this, to be honest.
You see how the flank is us you can't go forward for this length of showing
Oh, they want to win the toggle that one here shut up. Yeah
Right again idea of what exactly is going on in the post plan
But they know that there hasn't been a deep pursuit out because that trip is still set up at the connector entrance
Save the recon or no one shoots the recon
I go you'll find one Mako dazed up
up, creates a backup one for one, swings back in, finds himself a second, a sugar zero,
and CLs, into the mix of the fight, that's freeing going to be under some pressure, but
jumping out from the head of the window, Fermi's now arriving up on top of the top, and down
the other two, and you're actually finding a big pistol.
Yeah, this is a tough one here for Zeta, they try something with a little bit of tricky
in terms of giving up space that normally just gonna leave a site wide open like that
Um
First I turn my side home with the prime. Thank you so much mate. Thanks, thank you
Thanks so much for doing that bro. Thank you
Deep football as well. Deep
this time
in the YouTube chat, thanks so much mate
so share your YouTube membership
ok, we got 3 people that can go down in this one
it's a little long in terms of the bonus
or the antique one
should be fun
Rather aggressive
Just be a wait real question is is
How I'm sitting on the right want to get do they want to try to take some guns away?
Zeta's gonna push the issue
Struck down she was zero able to find one
They very quickly try to pile the weight back in towards this site
Lock up out in the long look at the trying to hold the line
But it could be bring up close and personal to be able to find two smoke now blooming
Saying go down along against the smoke
Well, it's a little scary.
Um, good news is they keep everything we've done.
No, they haven't had the chance to win this.
It's elimination? Yeah, lower bracket, man.
all those stuns available, the saturate, the concauses, the special livers, all these
things are there.
Okay, big barons.
They really make the chokes rather difficult to get to, so timings like that.
Then they have a Marshal.
Probably pretty important here for Zeta Division if they're going to play retake to get ahead
of the curve.
This time they're just leaving XD on an island, man.
Okay, lose A control, instant reaction, push down middle with double jewelers.
You got a fast TP that's on the site if they can get that early info. Yeah, it does take it three person four person
the site
Five steps inside joining in alongside him
Didn't prefer to smoke they should win the NAD spots out one. Oh steady the spray
swaps over the weaponry
Very, very nice, at least.
Dude, fast reactions.
Very fast reactions.
I'm wondering if they have a reed, to be honest.
Do they just like to 5 mana all the time?
This is a heavy overroading.
Obviously they find info from the scythe around the map.
We saw it at the end of last year as well where he really started to pick up the bragging pace
And that was very needed because I think again the arcs has a pretty good feel for
How these sites are gonna be left open
This mid pushes them much faster, and it's very aggressive hunter's fury out from xdl
There's something here as the clone
Termes eventually just gonna be flushed out as sugar zero comes up and over the top
They like how I mean they're insanely proactive right now
Take in here by DRX
Double Jolies, you gotta be.
This is to do...nice!
Okay, Freeing does have a little thing to do, isn't it?
That's the same.
Let's try that a little better.
Yeah, I'm not gonna think he's offside because of the ult.
because of the ult. Yeah, they thought they'd double it up to what's left.
They can just set up into those post plan angles. You don't even check the box either
I mean, you're actually be fine
We'll be changing either way you're a rifle purchased eco with a vandal
Genji looked about a little bit of though
But
reveal came to come through freeing
It's been all the port crap
By absolute Aaron. Yep. Yep. No reason to swing the box. Let's go ahead spamming through it
Hills quickly gonna be coming through except to try to make this one flawless and they shall
Having absolute compulsion. What's the sneak up? Um, it's really thousands. Then money gets out of control in this show
with the saturate with the salvos
Making sure that you don't give anything extra up over
What are all the America's games, have a look.
100 Thieves, EG? How would that for 100 Thieves?
Oh, EG though might be able to do some damage up yesterday.
I would say 100 Thieves. I think Lev beats C9, but it'll be really close.
I could be that could be and then
Energy
Yeah, that's probably the one that I'm
At least confident about but I said at the beginning we're gonna win three games in low brackets
Well originally I said they were gonna make a run the whole way
From my absol
I'm in yeah, I mean soon
Just nothing you can do here
I miss the first game
a little bit more resistance onto the site
You're not being dressed for the jokes. I mean, this is so scary for Zeta because of this comp the way that this utile
And come flying at you and you know, you're afraid of getting dashed on and saturated
You're afraid of getting stun lined up in one way or another the salvos are going to push you off angles
It comes in gets the info
Lot that you have to consider here as Zeta. I think you might want to
Yeah, no you need to
Looks like that's a bit of a break for you. Yeah, I don't think some toll
now
I should really gotten to see
That could come through. Yeah
Is it convergent paths with the rolling thunder?
Oh, slow everybody, knock them into the air, and they're just absolutely sure.
All over the prime, thank you.
You can find us in the combo yet, and it could come through.
You combine it with the Armageddon and just wipe the whole team out?
Could happen.
Absolutely.
A lot of things Rosetta considered with this time-out call, because it is very stacked
on the other side when it comes down to the ults available.
Yeah.
It's just pretty concerning. I mean you've left side open and every time DRX has figured out what it is
They got the early game sense read and we're just punishing that time after time
So I think you got to talk about maybe yeah
I do he's saying I think they're I think they have big issues and
Well early the comp the comps in the real stuff is an issue for sure
You need a little bit better coordination on the retakes dude. I think that's what's going on
You know, you've seen some of their ideas where they want to fight for space, they want to get aggressive early, but they've chosen wrong, and DRX has just sidestepped it every time, so you've got to find ways to make them respect the extremities of the map here.
I reckon it feels pretty overwhelming to be in the team right now.
So otherwise, DRX is just going to push long C or push long A, whichever one they don't meet resistance at, they're just going to go that way.
At least they've got a long time left.
It's not a trap in regards to that too, like thinking about, okay, we're going to fake that we're giving up this space, but then you're gambling.
uh dude this is a hog so Hodron's going to up throw a timeout
just too many I'll say you would imagine
main map cause absolutely wrecked them I look at the mini map and I'm just like oh
actually that's her hey pretty fast there's only two for the choke they might be able to own this
and
top to one three
Mako? I mean he's got so much money
he could start searching
could start searching realistically she shouldn't just because of this
as soon as I saw this I felt really good the whole part of him just go for it
guys buddy so annoying so annoying to play against especially you're all on
defense you know you don't have a lot of ability to do anything about it and
that's why you want to get ahead of it that's why okay you get one here is
absolutely kind of lose another rifle oh oh curious to see what the health was at
the end of that one leaves to breathe that side relief that small silver lining
the operator does get retained look at Maka's POV here
yeah that's it's Mako definitely feeling it yeah that's
was mentioned here get see him stand up yeah I would like to see that I mean
just once in my life you know I might not have long black
scope shots self-drone dash at the ready rolling thunder gonna lead the charge
I was gonna say this guy, this guy gets a fast kill, it's kind of insane, he did very
good to hold onto and not use his TP, he uses it to get an understanding of how important
the round is for DRX, just all the ulti's on this one, it's in the torso on the pistol,
heavy behind sub over towards heaven saviours recon. So they've been practicing on that.
Right, every time I get like a little bit of belief from, I get like a little bit of belief and then
Anyway, it just looks like a pretty big comp difference right now
DRX is so much more comfortable
You just don't have a lot of tools to really do much about this as they did a vision on top of a really sharp shooting
Look at the retake entry this gonna be going well that quick peek for Mako
Maybe it goes a different way
Yeah
Makos he's feeling it. Here we go again really snappy awesome down to Niko
Yeah, I mean even though you dodged bulls
Maybe he's near no interest round we'll see
Much in play. There's an attention girl from sugar zero as you go got slotted into cubby
I don't think they have any idea about this one whatsoever
Yeah, no, it felt it felt like a different
Plus you're out plenty of utile for it more about if it is a consideration
But it looks they're not even gonna try to push into this site
Maybe suspecting that there's going to be a stack around the IGL of Zayna.
Yeah, the fact that there's that little bit of movement there from Sugar Zero...
There's no one using Sage here?
What's your first thought when you looked at this?
Um, Sage isn't good in Haven.
Absolutely.
There's too many gaps.
Marshall, gotta hit some headies.
Chest shot.
Kevin.
Also, chest shot, but...
A slightly bigger gun.
just a bit
just a little bit
drone's not going to see anything so
just kind of play this out
get into your post plants
kind of starting to get the read you're going to see it too from the camera
thirty seven
gonna try to go for potentially this four player rapid
well here we go again
push bind
no pressure coming up from the other side to the map and still are going to be
noted by this brand
is there no Viper in bind?
it's not as bad as you would think
Like his team's stone.
I don't understand that often.
The Fring's actually having none of them.
Yeah, this does like a speedrun man.
Give him another fire on Jorley.
The problem with, um, it's not, well, maybe there's a bit of a problem.
It feels like when you're an underdog team like this, and maybe a team that it feels
like you're gonna, maybe they'll get traded out, but in Jorles you wouldn't say the majority
of the time DRX are gonna win, kind of want a comp that has good ult speeds of snowball.
Right, then you get that big round you can all you can push him down to an equal then you're kind of getting you know when I say that around
is what to
Just not a good old comp, really
Like these two can't do much. This is situational. Well, this is situational
This isn't the best one
Defense of them retaken
Now it's good because of this but...
We'll fade away.
Ooh, lovely shots man.
We'll fade away for Miko.
Trying to make it go this.
Macho's just hopping on the box here on site.
Is it all now?
Balls to Bane.
Zeta.
Best chance to try to find themselves second round win after Shaka
and we pop the overdrive is out.
Held to hop.
Bane trying to get the transfer but won't be able to get far.
Either kill Zeta.
Go ahead and get themselves a second round win.
Yeah, this is this is an eco round and I mean that in terms of the player not the economy
He really turns this one around. It's a couple great shots with the fade away
It's a beautiful entry, but not great TP placement there for Absol on top of missing the opening op shot
Had a chance in these two shots probably make that shot you would think the majority of the time, but
Rock goes like oh my feet my feet
Yeah. Now they actually can't leave the Cypher retake because of the combo. Oh, like there's
the combo, but they're pushing behind at the same time. All goes out, they dodged and they're
all... she's had a mouse block, but he still got the kill.
there on the old revealed spot
the plan here in the open cell has a paranoia
maybe the TP up and a half
correct in this round yeah I mean this is this kind of the what fanatic do every
time they have a so-called instance of all over towards here and just send it
throw this drone here next day out
You're out where these players went. They're just being so cautious.
Now for the push out, Paco.
Very, very nice.
On the flank, we'll be able to find the timing.
Maybe a full.
It's a down third round, winning out for Zeta. First consecutive wins.
Make sure that they recover everything that they can to defuse.
That's the first round where they've gone for these aggressive pushes
and it's finally worked, where they're able to get a player into position
to do damage into the back lines of DRX. You can see the setup there from XDL with the
Util really really nice Hunter Fury combo in there too just everything in the kitchen sink
at A lobby they connect with a lot of it. From what we're seeing here they probably not
just have to use pistols. They'd have to win a pistol into a gun or a bow.
I'm impressed with that, because I have so much belief in this game.
plan because they are of course a big TV man, hey Mako, Mako from heaven, normally people
would change that when they're getting wrecked like this, so far yeah, just getting hit
by Util all the time, all into all.
vision to try to run this back.
Reminder that even is their map pick.
I'm back now, come on man.
This is one of your better ones though.
Woo!
Yeah, the gunman...
Lookin' pretty good!
Yeah, I'm not be wearing the wingman hat on stage, but uh...
Walked out with it.
And he's showing that...
Shocking, strong form that we...
Not the witness from the last year's kickoff.
We helped lead this team to a trophy.
Yeah, when he's at his DRG get away with playing rain on a bus
It's a mix of
Really give teams that they're playing against and the math life a lot easier. It's a
Essentially, it's just a sight spam
I mean
It's double pop flash sender by out please win. Yes
It's looking pretty good.
Oof.
Yeah, I mean we saw the statistics 600 something days since the last time.
Oh yeah, thank you so much man. Appreciate the gift dude. Thank you, thank you.
I have been on twice as long since that wind all the way back in 2022.
I'm memory.
They're not getting away a bit though, they're 0 and 3?
Oh, okay.
They're spotted.
They're eye-losing.
They're coming through though, off the blind.
I guess that's their theory.
the site they found on sites where to map even the
sites
must win pistol for that 10 HP
camera spots all four
to try to get in here. Do a little reconnaissance, not force. Use this, Dins.
Oh, my catcher off here.
There's a pop flash. Yeah, it's going to be Sugar Zero to collect a kill. Nice.
Little three-player crunch back in the garage.
Gotta give it to them. They always come up with ideas, man. They're always doing something.
...to pull extremities up this sea site.
Well, those Sugar Zero, maybe take it down on Absol.
It's a trade. Hermes is caught. Bane finding Watt.
That's right around the back from Gecko's hut.
Nice. Very, very nice.
great plan, great puns, that's trick c control, he mechos just even if he was ready for it
I'm not sure what's going on with the tank.
Yeah, maybe he's not super used to it, because we've seen a couple of eco-fraggers that are
like, early ready for this.
I'm at one point and check numbers.
Here we go again.
Nobody favorite to get close. I mean he's going to see quite a lot of spawns here.
Let's dig in the smoking time.
Oh, oh, oh, we handed him a gun.
You guys want a gun for the retake? Here you go.
They all pay off site, but they cut the smokes.
but they killed the smokes
oh that was scary but
red cat
i mean they
they've been told
the players have been told
that they have to come up with guns
they're playing double drillers
they gotta be proactive
and
If that's like a big thing that they're focusing on, you shouldn't go this heavy, let's be honest.
You should never be sliding in, but it is like a... I mean yeah, it is red card.
I'm trying to defend him, but it's a red card man, he can't be sliding in like this.
I don't mind the fight here, you can't, you can't slide in.
It is a red card.
I'll see spamming right now.
Oh my guys.
Mountable.
Haha, yeah, come on, use this one.
Yeah, nice.
never in doubt
next up is snow boy
eco and makes sure that the sova gets
an all been napalm
or a kill on napalm
much quicker flank, trigger zero, 14, 13 and 11, a really nice map there, great flash
from Apsol, catches Hermes, he just can't do anything about that, whoo, okay, sure why
not, yeah they're fast lane, just actually tees up freeing, clear line of fire, man oh
man a bonus yeah it's a bonus maybe this attack side is just you get some
belief now you definitely get some belief a little bit more cautious here is
DRX you gotta watch for those alerts
quiet across the board now rolling for Bane but quite a bit you're
remotely comfortable investing that into the round granted you do have more
It's in the sheriff's potential for damage here. Yeah, I like the bandits in this
scenario, okay, so
Stop running at the money
Rolling thunder sent through cuts across intercepting shota and sugar zero me on the push into the site now this bike is stranded
I
Had that's brutal so the money to fight it out
I mean you absolutely need to
Three weapons upgraded though
Smoke through sugar syrup on the porch gonna get for one shot. They hit the transfer. Hey six bullets
band on the other side of
That smoke swing out
It's pushed against me program. Why do they hold in and can see cuz?
well when the intercross it seems like there might be danger Mako just steps
up to the plate with the sheriff the only one that you're excited around like
it whoo I mean it's obviously lovely shot he's like oh I'll just kill that guy
and now I'll kill you so good I mean Mako is just John Wick
He's trying but the position is right.
He was there.
Just go at Loco one at a time.
Don't do the action movie tropes.
Throw everything you have at this man.
And that again might be kind of, I think some of these struggles of eco in his decision making.
He just lines out there and then you have the other players you have absolutely.
I'm following up behind that where he doesn't hesitate like that
Influenced, I can do it today, yeah
You might lose eco, you know, to Hermes who's behind Mako or something
But that's okay because you should be able to get those trades
And that's what you're looking for on that attack side
You need to get those trades at the very least
I do like the jerseys though, not gonna lie
Yes!
C.R.X.Turk.
That's a little change up.
I think I got a little drink that matches that color scheme, but I can't actually think
of one.
Me neither.
I think if you mix the red and blue slushies, I'm 7-11.
Yeah, that is actually, that's the way to play, I mean you gotta mix all the colors.
Back to the C spam.
The real knowers.
Just put a little bit of everything in there.
I
Think we call it a suicide
In a different name in Jersey, I think it was something it was way more stupid like
Locker on there's a pressure here
That's back you go pushing and you will find what buckle gets full blinded with this
Spray spray is fine. It's what I'm ready for sugar to go to being right in on top of him
The thing that will be there for the trade back is coming to the fade-away of all fade-aways.
And that will just be paying for the bottle's spread out.
So let that sit.
Yeah, push him down to an eco.
The eco himself does have ult, so maybe it's a heavy armor.
You're so ready for this.
You know, you could see that.
Maybe they want to save for a combo.
There's some hope there for Zed at this site.
it would be honestly with a scoreline out there
just the lower by on this
Yeah, serve all into a neon or would be good.
They might as well have just like fully forced.
They're going to put all into it.
They might as well have just fully sent it.
And he find the four K to finish it.
Next to yellows.
Been instrumental.
He's been a monster for Zeta in their last several series.
Even then, it has solid start to this one for the squad, but it feels like a bridge too
far as Hedman will just go piling forward, diving in on top.
Alright, six.
Shorty will gun him down at TRX at the map point.
Yeah, they just didn't...
Like it should be Sovo into Neonult, really.
Like if they're dodging it, that's the calic combo.
Like, no, sovo or Neonult will win you out, around.
No one on site is surviving that, but should be drones, good enough to aim for the other.
Like even on top of it, if you really wanted to aim for it to make sure you serve old scourge, you could do the, you could do the Omen ult as well.
If you have enough aim for it to make sure that you just win that round, they do one, not the other.
Should have saved it for this round.
It is getting out and it's like it's angels for sure, but closely followed to that is
it's so hard for Echo to find like a sweet spot I think, like when he should and shouldn't be aggressive
because he is, he is good, like he's definitely good and he's probably the one up of the team that
It's aimed at the least and can actually aim at other teams and players, but every round
he wins, I feel like he loses them around as well.
They gotta try, they'll always be rounds that he'll lose.
They gotta try not to even out and just have more rounds that he wins, especially the eco
ones man.
The eco on the deadly
Doing the Dambi thing is hot. I mean doing it if you watch Dambi
he's he's he's I mean he's just very impressive but he'll always have like a
pretty good limit or if he's overextending the whole team over it
Swings in the law go down at the same time as Mako on the peak back
Yeah, three pass and a stack over towards him
Spike now on the floor and Absalom showed the half to make it happen in a 2v5
They want the map to keep going but Hermes says absolutely not finds the dink through the wall for Mako
to clean off while his final round is DRX
Strict concisely here on our opener of Haven Zayda's map hit
Yeah, it looked a little shaky, maybe this wasn't what
XQQ and company thought they were going to be facing from DRX in terms of the agent composition, but now this is DRX and they are so well thought out.
This was pretty clean from the most part.
Yeah, this was always going to be a hot one.
Really nice rounds here there from Zedah, but overall, you know, players like Mako and Yundan, Vayne as well had a phenomenal map, really just taking over the server at times.
Just hitting some great multi-kill rounds, great utils.
So, the way they control the space on A in particular here, so frustrating on that defender side for Zeta.
Yep, I mean clearly DRX, yep, getting caught off guard at times by some of the page changes from Zeta Division, but once they started pining that foot in when they came in...
This was a fast map, I mean there are no ways this is in Pacific now.
...and just kind of let the energy right out of themself.
Bane the bouncer with that breach, very much able to stop them from getting access into the sights of most of the twists and turns, but Mako is as Mako does. He's just an absolute Goliath on the stage.
Never really feels like it's in doubt with Mako. He's always seemingly there to put up some big numbers for DRX no matter the occasion.
Yeah, half the stuff. Yeah, the snowball was so sure on the attack.
zero aggressive TPs that are time to catch the opponent from their time retake
space or clear space during an execute or during a recap. I think to win when the aim
is like this high they have to do it in both halves as well.
Haven done it out of the way buying now the last best.
Okay I'll be back in a little bit.
We'll come back after a break for now.
Over the 80.
Well we may have raised our eyebrows at the breach tail but DRX have shown that no
No matter what, these players can still perform.
We had amazing performances and it looks like DRX is on form today.
Yeah, I mean, I think if you want to go off meta, this is what you need to do.
This is a well-drilled composition.
They really understood how to play it and save the division,
could not figure out how to react to it.
I think this is something that's very, very important at the top level of Valorant,
is if you've kind of never played against someone before or it's been a very long time,
it's incredibly hard to adapt in the game to solve all those problems.
And that's very much what it looked like to me. Zeta could not find the answers against this style that they probably don't see in the late year.
Yeah, it's been definitely been a while, the beach coming out.
I definitely think going off meta here and coming in with a good game plan definitely gets you a map win at least at kickoff.
When you come in with something a little bit fresh, a little bit, maybe a blast to the past with a little bit of a sprinkle of new things here.
I quite like the RX, they kind of get a little bit more simple. They're playing the beach.
I do think that if they play this comp a lot, then it's going to get a little bit more difficult to play.
The breach does become a little bit more predictable, but Haven's always been a good place for the breach to shine.
So, I quite like how they played it, especially I think the Black side have good ideas in terms of how they're just taking the A,
they go take the A with the breach and the tail, it's really easy for them to take in their execs.
Of course, when they have ultimates, it's so much easier with the Omen flash, with the Faranoi coming in as well.
and then on anti-eco's they just go and get some more, right?
As long as you have these ultimates, and if you can string these round together,
keep the anti-eco's clean, you're always going to have ultimates for gun rounds,
and then it's such a hard game for Zeta to play, they're going to have to contest them
more than what they did, and not sit on site as what they did.
So I think Zeta's adaptations weren't good enough either though.
Yeah, once you have that rotation going, it's going to be pretty hard to stop DRX,
and I think that Zeta, yeah, they were absolutely caught off guard,
And we were talking about how Zeta, they needed that firepower they needed to perform.
And as we were saying earlier, it takes them a little bit of time to get to warm up.
I feel like they did heat up a little too late in those last rounds.
It was just unfortunate, I think, for Zeta, because I think they could have gotten a few more rounds against DRX.
But as we saw DRX, they came really, really prepared.
Yeah, I mean, it's this first half where they really ran away with it.
We want to talk a bit more about this kind of combination.
So, I think this is an incredibly well disciplined and thought out composition.
We can see how they're taking along there with the Breedstone, the Taioh missiles,
able to kind of lock that area down very very easily.
And I think that's obviously so important on Haven, right?
Yeah, it's something that if you do play the Breedstone there, you can.
If there is a part of the map that you really want to take,
you can pretty much take it without anything that defenders can do if you really want to go.
And then you can set up your way there nicely to be able to go in.
The one thing that's going to be always scary for the Welle is to be able to go in and have a spot that's safe for him to go in.
So you need to make sure that you're throwing all this util and for him because he doesn't want to refract back after you throw all of the util and no one else is going in.
That's where Mako also comes in. And if you get back this and the timing is really nice, the cage also goes up and helps him a little bit.
And then you can just see assist nation coming through for them. Again, it's going to be him going in and then Mako is really important that he's keeping it to the side.
Yeah, and then we see, you know, we spoke a little bit before about the powerful ultimates,
the whale ultimates, in combination with the tail ultimates, really just hard denies that area,
and then they swap it over to B, they stop rushing into B, they have those set execs here,
and you can just see how very deliberate the game plan is to be chaining these old combinations
together, and it just becomes nearly impossible to stay on these sides, which I think Zeta did
for a little bit too long, I think you have to try and find ways to bail out that utility because
so hard. If you stand where you're gonna get hit by all this YouTube you just don't have a chance to fight.
Yeah I think it did. DRX has really uh kept the ball rolling and it just made Zeta hesitate so much.
They suddenly didn't know what to do. They were second guessing themselves also. You saw it took
so long for them to get onto the side and maybe like we just wait a little bit too long. So I hope
that Zeta can you know bounce back from that as we head into our second map. I think it's gonna be
quite difficult knowing that DRX is in this kind of form and I feel like they weren't even really
pushed to the brink in that map. It was like no sweat for DRX.
It is very hard for Zeta to be fair. If you can't get the operator out because you're getting snowballed
and the snowball is also meaning DRX is just chaining alks together and we said before the map
even started there has some really good alks to get into site so now because they have alks
they're winning rounds and because you don't have the opi you can pick them off before they can use
it and now you're on eco the whole time so someone needs to save for the operator and if someone's
not saving for the operator or the operator's not getting valued then you just end up saving
the operator if he's not on the right side or something right so for Zeta yeah
it's pretty tough to be honest this one I think there's definitely some things
where they could have played the macro a little bit better, aggro a little bit more
or maybe go second timing let the RX take first with their stun and then the
salvos and then second timing they go with the flash and the neon maybe going in
you always stand the chance of getting hindered by the Wele right but you need
to do something and you can't just sit on the site they did try to go onto the
flank, right, for the flank retake, but if they're using all of the ults and they still
have the paranoia or aftershock and all of that left, then it's quite a harsh retake as well.
Yeah, it's so tough. I mean, we sort of tried different things, but if you've not had good
practice against a composition like this, it's very difficult to find those answers
in the moment, because you just can't see everything that's going on, you don't have
perfect information across the map, and that means that right now, they are down 0 and 1
in this series one map away from going home from this kickoff and now we move
across to their opponent's map pick off-bind yeah going into find now a
little bit more familiar I guess for both teams but again the DRX they've been
they've been feeling a little cheeky lately with these changes and prompts it
makes me wonder if we're going to see the same thing that they brought out you
know the usual raise your that they like to run over here or if maybe they're
gonna try something else because suddenly I'm not quite sure with your ex
Yeah, so we've seen that same composition from the tournament twice on this map, but they did lose their last buying game to T1, so, you know, I wouldn't be against the swap, I mean, I think if they do want to change, we know that Bane can play Skye, Skye is a very natural fit on buying, I think that would be a different approach that they could take if they want to standardize across to this double initiator style, but part of me feels like because they've picked this map and they did be barrel on it before, I think they might just stick with what they know a little bit and just start to run more basic.
kind of standard setups and just let their players shine.
You think that maybe like the change of the split comp and everything and then now
on to Haven might be, it might be a bit too much.
Yeah, like to change your competition it takes a lot of work.
Yeah. So you don't normally see teams change multiple maps week to week and
especially in a tight format like this, you know, maybe you have a buy week or
something then you can get away with it but in these fast tournaments you don't
see too many changes because then it's hard for all these changes to be
very well drilled and very effective. So you know, I did think that their Haven
It looked very good, very smart, so if they have the players that are able to adapt fast,
change style very quickly, who knows, maybe they'll go for it.
Maybe we'll see Double and Show.
And it's a lower bracket match as well.
This is a high pressure matchup that we're seeing right now.
This could be Zedas last map here on the kickoff stage, so it is still a very, very high stakes
matchup.
And I think that DRX, yeah, they might want to play it safe this time around, but I don't
know, going into this one, I think DRX being tricky to take confidence.
Yeah, I mean, absolutely.
This is their map pick.
they know what they have to do is close this up. Ah, wow, okay, very different
composition here from DRX. They have made a change. They're bringing out the
Kaio. We saw this from Paper Rex yesterday. We saw the first deal yesterday, right?
Now we're going to see the second one, Pacific. Yeah, pairing that up with the
Kaio as well on the map. Solo jewelist, Wele. Once again, for Hyunmin, this is a
radically different approach to the map from what we've seen from them before.
It's the same again for Zeta Deficient, running, that Wei Lei and the Raze, but again with DRX and these changes, I really wasn't expecting that we would see yet another different composition.
I wonder how long they've been sad on this. Are they just bringing us out now they're in the lower bracket? I really have no idea.
This is lots of changes we can read for them, but we did see how well they piloted by Double Initiate the last time, so look for more of those really slick utility combos.
But I'm loving I want to see how it is. Let's see if Zedah Division can make a comeback or if this new
DRX comp once again, we'll take them off guard
We're gonna pass it over to our casters paper bin and Achilles
I'd be the last
Thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you
Jumping to find DRX as the desperate highlighting once again changing things up in a pretty big way
I think I like this look for DRX. I think I like this double initiator into the
whaley and the utile combos are there for days.
The double initiator? And the counter is hung on board of it at the moment but...
And so I think more of that and even the KO in there, you know, doesn't have the stun
like the breach but as the flash has the project, it's catching up a little with you,
I was talking about players and stuff, but they actually build nice pistol strat though.
Ah, sick pistol strat.
I like that a lot.
If he went for the salvo originally, oh my god, it would have been nuts.
Who would have pushed through and then he could have stunned them.
Oh, they got no idea he's out.
Hey, nice.
My guys are going to take back a site.
He's one of them pistols.
I think the coaches at DRX are going to be a little annoyed.
They came up with a really nice pistol here.
Double take TP, EK, flash over the top, then you go back and they've had two TP's, so
their most likely reaction is to go fast over towards V
and then they actually have numbers over towards here
and then they got a combo over towards Longly
it's kind of messed up a little bit
we did say Fizzetta to win
it can't used to be pistol
and then win even the third or the fourth round
probably on both halves
good stuff
looking good on their attacker side pistols even when they are going into the
strong side of the rx here
you know good
the blast packs there to break open the angle for the follow-up player
moving forward with the ideal road ahead for sun
they need to find
their definitive read on the map
i don't want to see another push in towards uh...
i mean they'll just call it their identity
they don't have an identity right now
he's going to have a vandal this time
I think between the two likes the, oh my god, oh, okay.
Mako one at the orb, not gonna get it.
No damage.
Fix the rolls, I mean, that's a big part of it.
Just come away with that free kill.
Kojak with the prime, thank you, thank you.
Appreciate the 36 months.
What the hell, Kojak?
Another tap there from freeing.
That's all I'm necessary.
I'm being hurt.
Okay, freeing, going to fall.
Hermes, all the way out of showers,
might be able to find a time to fall.
Appreciate you, thank you.
to read that they were going for. They didn't have the right pieces. If you look at double
jewelers at the moment, if you bring a hot one, you gotta have a fearless sending, a
fearless sending, Jesus. That's right. Oh, bane bade so heavy has been, um, like every
double duelist right now you could go across all the teams and you could go
space maker second duelist you can work out who is who the Sentinels know who's
meant to be
who but
doesn't look great
In your opinion, how did you use the GFM off the absolute banger breeze?
I'll be honest man, I was thinking GFM was better.
They looked so good on the last two months.
Having GFM with one of the best splits at the moment.
same thing kind of happened on Haven right where they dropped an extra gun and
still came through and got the bonus so who knows
oh this is a little weird would have helped getting hit by that knife to be honest
smoke in, sky flush over towards B
but then the knife instead goes in clears the pressure
it can keep three strong, they kind of had already
committed to heading over towards A if they got hit by that knife
Maybe, maybe could have got that guy now.
It's very nice to have the arc to the moment, Screee, but over towards B to keep the 3 here.
Hey guys, it's the...
Oh dude, KO jump, right click, that's so strong.
Nice shot.
I'll just say America's entertaining man. It was really fun
I was gonna say swing over to the B, but I'm just gonna try to re-clear through the
ramp.
Snaps on for the headshot, takes out Brang and now it is down to Bane.
Fucked away.
So, uh, wait, 15 seconds remaining.
Gonna go scally forward and XTL!
Get the red wall clutch!
Why would you have a push here?
You're clutching into the corner and you used to plant.
It's a weird choice, man.
It's a weird choice.
Okay, well he said.
Wow!
and he needs to plant. It's a weird choice man. It's a weird choice. Okay, well he said
to them to win this they got a win pistol bonus. They're still in a bonus.
I can't understand the things decision making man. I normally don't question 1v1s.
this one right here this one you cannot let this die
He's trying to take a timing
Guess he's missed the next round here ahead of his argument will be a miss my shot
I have to call the time out because
Xtl has shown that he is so very capable
It won't be free he is really starting to
Become the superstar for Zeta. I'm not trying to be hyperbolic, but it feels like outside of DfM
He is the hope of Japanese valor. Yeah
Yeah, until you get to the tier two scene, there's a few players I might have got there, but yeah, yeah, yeah, for tier one, absolutely.
Is there a point out that information is going to be gained there? I think it's at least three players tagged.
Quite a different formation this time.
Yeah, I saw him a little out here. Nice, dude.
the
around when
no opportunities
for the exact come through on the site show the pushes forward
even draws down to get him and then everything
30 seconds left
giving them no quarter here
this is a brilliant from Zana division
boring a catastrophic disaster this is going to be a 4-0 start for them
there you could get some really nice alts in the cycle in the next round you're
gonna have to converge and pass macos to away from an orbital strike so if he
gets an orbit plants the spike
a tremendously difficult post plant eco it's an eye on the maco there but whoa
wow maco is ready for that he was pre-firing that
a really good chance to make sure you do as much damage as possible here get those extra
orbs for yourselves right here this is I mean Zed has been much better on the attacker side
this year if you go and look at their stats for kickoff it's pretty heavily favored on
attacker side on most of the maps they play TP crunch play nobody home yeah like these
little like these little ideas they got this time Zed is just death balling right down
They're um, they're doing some good stuff with these two
KO into the way
Oh no boys, not all your roads. I didn't get the plant down but it got a little space over towards B
This is a big one B1
If that player has a legit kill for Maka, I wouldn't be mad on that.
They kept one over towards A, so they had his backup option, and now he's here so early they might not expect it.
And if he gets a kill, he gets his ult.
magic
Did they do enough damage to
Maybe
Big round they could use both out in this one
They got to keep it going, they got two ults on this one, there's two people for direct
combat that lose this one.
That's Bancow and so far is nice, it's fast man.
The thing is it looks, this guy thinks he's in an off angle but it's like, it's such a,
something really like the whole thing of off-angle you're trying to mess up people with their swing
right either they're swinging too wider than I'll swing enough so you get a heads up
this there's like pretty because of how far away this is it's basically the same angle as this
gonna go like little closer
it's not lucky
cool
well that's nice
that's good dude, that's insanely uh
free use of a care or considering that a Razor is popular for you to wait for the
voice line on this.
Yeah, and fight the smoke over towards side as well. Hard to plant, no info.
What do they do?
investment on the null command the orbital strike back over towards those
down to freeing and then they again leave an insight so they can go back if they
need to take some down show stop for now holes off or is a nice nice
a little bit longer for it but yeah you can touch it I mean
hold me close tears them apart the third kill form is Hermes frantically back
pedals out towards safety is how you do it two people that come by now this is
beautiful mid-rounding this is exactly what you want to see from Zeta put a
little pressure at one point they're doing so good having inserts and
having backup options like even here like even on this right and then you
Pressuring over towards A, we've got the one that's taking space over towards B, you can call them back cause you've got the TP's, fast rotates.
But at the same time, even then, even though they're taking the TP's, they still have the one here, just in case it gets really bad over towards B, they fast rotate so that they can then TP back.
Like they just non-stop have options, and then the ones on the side are just...
I mean, the ones on the side and the one with the group is just making the call.
You shouldn't and you have eco who's been slowly lurking around be hasn't seen anything
Maybe they're gonna do a bundle over a tank man
Exactly what you need is a
Little bit of a odd round the one before but that one was super good. That is some great macro stuff
We'll say in terms of the negatives though we need KOP from DX
It looked like Zeta wanted to actually try and get it out of them at the fake
fake
where they sent
But it didn't even need to get out of there.
We're going to have to be a good agent in this matter.
Just better agents, man.
Even the Viper's pit isn't going to feel comfortable at all with the convergent pants and a orbital strike.
Got to be real careful here about grouping up his Zeta.
So there's a big combo there between those two alts, even if you're not in a planned position.
You're caught in a choke or something.
But swing a eco round here in the favor of DRX.
But patience is the name of the game early.
I'm not going to buy down just as the classic.
A couple of timing shots attempted there from Hermes.
Short.
Once again, Salvo denying that trailblazer from getting any information.
This is nice from Sessa.
So, now sticking with the 5 man, because you know they're not going to ever rotate.
Might just be how they want to handle the eco's anyway also.
Dude, is that what jawless are doing great man?
through
Realistically, what do you do? Try find something that's wrapped through elbow
It's some bandit bangers
all you got in the sheriff you can draw the attention maybe come in and get some angle to try to play through but ultimately this is looking like it's gonna be Hermes trying to find something which he does
and then potentially that's the spike
it's getting ready to come in but shut down that late langer is able to find Hyunbin so even so
it's very well read from Zed divisions
what do you think about the current map for?
I mean it's not too bad I'm so glad Icebox is in here
I don't like a base obviously.
I haven't even done wonders with Breeze.
I appreciate the three mums, thank you for doing that, thank you for making it.
Okay, is that it now?
Just 5 mine groups on.
And speeding up is all I found out.
Oh, that's a combo I brought this to out and out is.
Okay.
I'm not going to win it.
Push to the corner, spray and pray blind.
Kermy is going to find one, but sugar is zero.
He's in around dice.
I'm saying they're going to win it, but damage is the one.
He's in with a shout, but the spike is still dropped in front of Hyunmin.
But close quarters with the operator.
He's the pickup.
The swoop in.
He's not going to win.
Showtime!
He's just playing back!
There's no way.
Now a 2v2 in this round could very well be a 2v5 into 2v2
My love to get a kill before you mine
Thinking the full process with the comp
at all
You lose two players to that double alt combo fine, and then you fire back and you get that other pivotal alt out of their hands
huge
Alex I'm a lose the Vipers kid
Not the most important all there's nothing you can do
But but the fact that you get those three key alts out of the axis hands are not able to put them into good cycles
gives you a great chance if you can keep up this good read this good macro play good
identification of where players are and how to use your util better you've got a
kind of a scuffed by here
good again I would stay rest often I'm like yeah mom they're doing nice stuff
they get the op out there obviously they have to know they have enough money for
the ops they flash fake over towards a like they're setting him up actually I
I mean, this might work, they might walk into that, I'm pretty sure they can upshot us.
They drive peek this, right?
They shouldn't, but...
Okay, nice.
Yeah, I mean...
This is more just the RX being good.
hold the amount of this site, spike in hand, one away, go, be able to get the ult online,
pretty much no matter what, but you spend the money and actually, he had Shota, not worse
for wear, should be able to piece something together into the next round, but something
to think about here.
I just thought for a second he might just TP and gamble it, but he's just gonna go wrapping
around
guaranteed that conversion pass in the next round
and then you're one away with sugar zero in Abyssal so you can
yeah I mean it looks good here
gonna get to save right
the third classic
Progressive fight in the showers, something like that in control at the ult online.
Yeah, do that too.
DRX, slight window, back into this, still three rounds separating.
Long way to go to make this contentious.
Yeah, the economy was a little weird, that's why he decided to go, it's not quite enough money.
Wouldn't mind seeing a timeout here from Zedah.
Based on XQQ's tendencies, we aren't going to get one. He's been pretty conservative, we'll say, with those time-outs.
They've been like, charming.
Yeah.
I think you give it one more.
Then I'll pump the brakes.
Fight after ready.
Trailblazer is going to be sent.
There's the up and over, saturating to the corner, he's not getting to catch, but we'll find the kill, Hermes.
Should have just backed away from that one, but challenge is in, lose is in, life is in.
Nice dude, I just think of a time they come back to the full ones.
Yeah, they give themselves an option again.
I can take it off, the woman will nuke that flanker.
There goes your option, but at the same time it kind of makes it easy to make an option.
Flash out the full face, prepare for pain.
Absolutely screwed to the open.
I thought his timing was going to be good here.
If this guy had jumped up to heaven there, that's a pure timing for sure.
This guy needed to make some heaven jumping up.
Um, Mythic, thanks so much for the prime, I appreciate that.
Gen G, GE game?
I have GE, but I'm like crazy confident with it.
looked a lot better
but i still think from what i've seen, gt should be winning that
they're looking good, i mean dude, 7 on this thing
So they're on attack and they still have incredible ult, and they should be getting one more head to show up.
They're like giant X has been disappointing on Hustling's point.
They lost their two best maps, which is, I mean we spoke about on Platch had a little bit of a dirt.
So they might not perform well, just because the losing your two best maps is big.
But, yeah, they probably didn't put emphasis on how big it was, because if you look at every
best of three that they played, especially at champs, it either involved those two maps
or at least one, and that was always the maps that they won.
But they would always win a cent or a sunset or both.
You take them out, honestly, they would always lose to other maps.
Up and over the top goes Absol
Oh, correct. They got a lot of space
He's not going to be able to fire off that rock if it's still at space game for Zayda
DRX could be playing full retake
Spain's still waiting for a potential work on that B site. They had seen from the show to the round before
I've got your trail
Available though Hermes, buying their little readjustment, but to be able to find a shot next to the L taken down
Prim, Paul, Prim, Molly, they got to go fast
They're gonna go faster than this, right?
they were way too slow on this. Way too slow on that. Very nice one. Dude, they're having
this snowboard well, but they're making good decisions.
It's yum yum time
But sugar zero it just takes so long to get into this retake
Super zero has the Molly and the alt and he buys time and he plays it to perfection
Crunch spotted. Yeah, same thing like the TP flash over towards well washroom spawn
And if they try and fast react cares in a position to be the
Very afraid. That's from Zeta. They're expecting something a little different in this case, but half by we'll call it push out
Yeah, I like that
Whenever they can scrape together
I mean Moco's glass cannon here, so
That's actually probably the most terrifying part of this round
I'm really bad at it out, taking on the double push right now.
Double push at the 55 second mark when you're never grouping up.
Oh, they don't get it.
Oh my god, they got traded for that.
Yeah, it's a big whiff at the beginning there.
The movement wrecks him, the movement really wrecks him.
this B site so it's a free pivot a free plant for zeta just check out around
elbow just walk out he might do but he go for the push flush against the wall
the show top gives him the bad news away nine
that's a long rotate for hermes to try to work his way across
and then operating alone here for the moment those of this one and two but
show to have reposition those potential position of new players swings in finds the first
oh snap one for xdl and he has suddenly two to one eco
needed to clutch it out but young men he's taking in his own hands at 3k just three 1v1s
with this absolutely on and they have no idea where this guy is so they're like scared to play
off each other. They could maybe play a bit better back side. Still though, if you offered
them 8 at the beginning here, they're taking that. Yeah, that should have been off my contact
He's running.
great push, the gunman is still topping the charge regardless, can I leak here a bit if
there a man would leak?
Can you watch party with someone, um, maybe, at least if you go to masters we'll watch
party with people.
Well I'm going to have a strict role though man, the talk has to be about the game.
It can get out of control.
now with how good that attacker side looked how did the protocols look a
couple really good mid rounding rounds they can keep it up food talk yeah
it's up in this double initiator stuff that I haven't looked so so good
join me yeah this we get having we'll just do a thing where we just rotate
people like three people each time like me and two of us each time that day
This is pretty fun
You know a step above
Then clean for the most part for Zeta division with some of the mid-round and that we've been seeing
Let's say they continue on this defender side
So go for a triple walk down short
He's done incredible this is a dash out joins his team now on that's you does
They're going to be able to take control of Blanking, but planted.
Was anybody other than XTL dying?
That's the kind of question. Does Jamblin take a risk and get some up control?
My guys are ready to push through both sides of the smoke.
He peeked over towards the spawn. Nothing going to be seen there, so DRX can be pretty confident.
That's going to be put up through main and hookah.
They showed the one side. Flash going out, but on the re-swing, Mako going to be taking down.
That was pistol. They're doing it. What's he doing?
I imagine they did it on the last map as well.
The flash, yeah, the flash wasn't great.
that was kind of rolling through my brain there as that round went on is that
Soto is doing a great job with some of the lurks and some of his timings
finding that extra open space for Zeta in this round he's getting it done with
the firepower too big double kill there will help the Elbin
Bane throws a great flash sets himself up but there's just too many bodies
and he's got the M I directed him to go
yeah he says it's good it's good it has been very good for Zeta on this map so
Okay, don't get e-codes.
Oh, they're not going to get e-codes.
Everyone's buying three heavy armors.
That should do it, but the eco farm a gun.
My guy does not want to get e-codes, but both of the smokes are down, so you can use
beat a dub.
Oh, boys.
Okay, he confirmed a gun, got three, and he only lost one. Not bad.
blast facts exactly what they needed to to get out to safety put that marshal to
good use gonna take one shot just keep spamming it get the reset on the nades
throw that absolutely stellar stuff that he's gonna be getting really close to a
showstopper three away already flying in that regard
being a couple away from the null command saw the shoulder pushing before
the smoke's blue odd uncommon mistake there from mockup
I mean that guy's gonna be ripping the tie off by the end of this map and say to take it
You see it tied around his head
Dancing on the stool. I love that
Give it to me
And it's a timeout call for Zeta
I don't think they've used one. No they haven't. This is interesting. Maybe they
just have some set play they thought up while they were sitting there and
they're like what if we do this? That's a timeout. I mean I don't mind it. Obviously
We've seen some bad timeouts in kickoff and school wise it's a little worrying but
Like there's two rounds here and if they win either of them they win them out
So we're worried wasn't gonna be addressed that maybe they missed
In the comms or something like that definitely
Yeah, I mean just looks like
The other three on the other side, I think it's a showers crunch.
They were going to, but then they got wrecked by the knife.
Yeah.
I think those dashes are just going to be burned.
Yeah, they got hit by a knife over the showers.
They didn't want to do it.
I think they thought there might have been like none of us here quite a lot.
Pressure in the showers, and you could catch them back.
Or maybe it's a little down to a deep brim of smoke or raisin.
Nobody home.
Instead try to
Okay, Zetra at the moment hold on to long
Did you use all this guy you tell me go proactive with bodies? Oh man, look at this team, bro. Look at them go
But now you get this triple pushout as well from Zeta garnering so much information
50 second marker, you know, they're gonna make a decision and group up as well
You take the risk they have a Jolot with three or they get a fast flank with three
Boy, he's doing to do this on the side
I would have made a beta pressure on the site so they don't expect the push behind I don't like the I don't like the pinch
If they get pressure here, they struggle to plant, time gets low.
This becomes so much more valuable in my opinion.
I'm so good to kill, it gets us all.
Oh, what a shot bro.
Now together!
Nice, dude!
The snowball and double pistol, double bonus.
in the plan and that's they don't count for the fact that Hermes couldn't slip the net between
the showers push out and where they were coming in through short that kill was the one
he was absent on haven but the Zed is success so far you're on by he's absolved himself that's
for sure come on you you kind of you kind of did it too yeah
the way just for time step preventions now absolute the peak out Mako is just
left on an island spike is now straight out the front is drx and clearly lost at
the damn plot what are we doing
was what coming up
that's a data
yeah i mean the body team secret on the board
but what actually happened is
this guy got hit by the boom bottom the other guy shot it so
that should be
got him for the two still have
he's got the backup
I'm gonna wonder why there's four there, but it makes sounds of two on short and then east-exact.
Look at them going around the hall there, it's more convincing than the first map.
at least delay it. I don't know what's going on this round. I mean despite the Mapo's hands just
sending it. This gets cut down. It's not that bad dude. The penalties are big.
I can look between the two maps and this has been a
basically for everyone on DRX. Okay we've got eight goals at it.
At one point they're just going to get so many odds that Nikonzo has great odds that they just win.
and the timing of that flash is nice
flashed in this round is so nice
try to make a goal of this, but it's gonna have to be, you know, be seven more rounds
after this one.
The walk out, and no, good God!
You cannot open the door for this guy!
So one's rolling, okay, a bit of a doggy map, some ways end up falling, no chance to start
the heroics.
Laka will find his first kill and God knows how long.
Write it on your screens, Coastrainer, seven more chances.
I thought that knife was gonna be...
Why is he dumbin'?
I was like, oh no.
I'll make it look this way.
Hey, look at this.
Look who's here.
Bane's just trolling him.
I will say this is the way out, Frank.
No, because he set up a corner.
Good, you till to get onto the side.
I'll make it look this way.
I
Will say that's good flash. He said it
Good you till to get out of the site everything there. This okay
Everyone's one away from their own
Oh, they did this last time the deep smoke with the dash on the repeat absolute. It's a nice try
that shows up or once again not going to be a concern it might be a
couple of rounds away the Olin
swing over to the other side like assume that DRX will make a quick rotate
trying to get a read on the tendency here is sugar zero but the news for him
is so far DRX hasn't pulled the trigger on a re-hit they're holding tight
because they're worried about some kind of follow-through from Zeta
It's gonna be a bang to come back here, it has potential, I agree it has potential.
The big old round is gonna be really fun.
elimination
Seems like already Zeta just rotating fanning out a bit to go for the saves
Directs gonna be allowed to get a little bit closer. So halfway to overtime six more rounds to go
Hey for sure, and I think now is Zeta you start setting up some delayed traps
Don't hide players in that corner and by the teleporter it be long. It's a little bit different
We'll keep putting some pressure at the longs, that's okay, don't need those full aggressive
pushouts.
DRX has got the reed on it, isn't going to work right now, DRX doing a great job starting
to identify what has been working for Zeta, what they need to do, you're going to have
great ults, just great ults to close this map out for Zeta, should have a really good
look at it.
TP just around the corner, but DRX doesn't even want to try to fiddle with this, I mean, you've got two players, the ones that were there in showers, both one charge away from having their ults online.
That would be catastrophic.
Less than ideal.
We'll have to cut out for them here, but...
What do you think of this team? You as coach, FNS Sassy, Ten, Som and Yay.
Mate, that team is not hungry enough, bro.
No, he's not hungry enough. I'm not sure I'm not sure the team's got what it takes
Give me that team. Yeah, this is what I was four years ago. Oh, yeah
That team now
Yeah, I'm not sure about that
Seems a little awkward for Mako smoke sugar zero has got I'm thinking
That feels like I'm gonna try to put some pressure at that position
I don't want to see anybody overstepped here from Zeta. Take it slow.
Trumpers are not seeing anybody outside of showers, and with a flash confirmation...
I can be any better for the Erics to be honest. Flash hit him at the farthest point possible.
You know, here around the corner. On an island.
I'm blowing up.
I'm also going to be scouted out.
Satcher, I'm in so many things just...
Oh, it's the big round. Oh boy, here we go.
The Virgin Path's going to be safe, but the fact has to be taken.
Oh no.
Oh, they're saving on this.
Dude, as soon as the first all goes in, you know it's going to be absolute chaos.
See how
Charges away it will just be holding this formation
I'm gonna be going
Hunting here
shouldn't
See a freeing wants to go hunting he is loaded he is flush with cash
Exploration mission you also love to get an arm again on mine true that
Suck it, we'll just be a slow creep from him over towards the market.
Okay, a little nervous for them.
Maybe I won't, so they get two of their main ults back.
Three-way angle that you have to try to clear out.
Find the first, and Shota will be able to sit him down, so...
All the same, furring one charge away from having the ult online, Shota gets the pit now available.
I know that if something of Zarex comes to regret, you'll have to wait and see.
I just panigaled here from eco.
under pressure to make matters worse as young man had his own response EDG in the
lower final we stable throw that back it could be pretty good um it could be a
pretty good best of five so I don't find what they did there I just think
ego panicked a little too much in that moment probably doesn't need to throw the
all
Or if that was the plan like if you had that as a follow-up to his aggressive forward position
to get that showstopper
To prepare double Joe the sir initiative to add the fed double Joe's on every match for women
The one that wraps outside of market
Then fine then that's out that that would have been beautiful, but they didn't so it took too long for that showstopper to get
Thought through to be there. It's the best region to watch you watching it right now
few little kind of tweaks they look so good on the attack side, but these defender sides continue to plague them
to be finding consistency
being able to play some follow through plans with some good protocols
still costing them a lot of rounds
ok we're doing a slow countdown
five
eco
So attempt here to Rifty from Zeta, they can pull it off.
Two sheriffs, a Shorty, Stinger, and the Vandal carried over.
See how it avoids damage.
Jason sent out a single PCU till yet.
That's got DRX kind of scratching their heads a bit.
What is this?
When's the flash going to come out here to reconfirm presence?
I mean, that goes in the hits too, but they're getting it all out of them.
they haven't got through the choke yet. It is those.
Up and over the top, spotting out a lot, but showing them from down below, finds the kill,
the shrink of the bane, only gonna be good for the one kill as he goes, has the shorting
out, Hermes falls to the wayside and is all on freeing. The Seeker certainly has the
zero, profiting a grip and bring the map to its conclusion.
They are pushing us the distance here in our first series of the day.
pistol double bonus you should be winning it but there's good stuff on the back of it as well.
couple times they played it one of the best maps I almost thought Zato it's
gonna pick split coming into today if it was left open I mean gotta save it for
that finisher
was this going 15-7?
old reliable for them to close out series during their run back over
Masters Reykjavik four years ago but great step up in performance here from
Absolute yes come in insistent, but probably the worst map we've seen from laco easily all year, but
That's a you can even go back in further than that. This was a rare poor performance from him
CS from that brimstone
otherwise
So well suited till the data had just a great game plan and everyone was hit their shots
Yeah, amazing!
And I'm just going to let them both team share.
Yeah, I'd probably share that as well to be honest with you.
We're going to a map 3.
Zeta manages to come back 30 to 7.
You see the score line.
Zeta, like Achillea said, you can always rely on them when it comes to these high pressure maps.
to actually dig deep and manage a scrape together after a round of a business-fully
steady-filling momentum. And they were actually holding back DRX, especially on their attacks.
Yeah, I mean, this was a big step up in level in my mind from Zeta Division. They looked
much cleaner. I thought the synergy was really nice. And also, we said before this series,
we need to see individual firepower. And I felt like they came alive a lot more as
individuals in this game. They were going toe-to-toe with DRX, winning the fights more
often than not, DRX, you know, they tried to change that composition, something that you know, they caught Zeta off in map 1, but map 2 Zeta seemed very, very ready and very well adapted to this style.
Yes, how you need to play against the KO, I think they showed good discipline, I agree with paper thin as well, that Zeta did do well to not get caught off by the early KO flashes that was coming in with the Wele, the way they're always looking for a kill there from DRX and Hewnman.
But unfortunately, every time when they chose certain boys on the map to try and look for an early kill, there was just no one there from Zeta.
And then after that, Zeta did pretty well to slow it down at the start, make sure you're not going one man down, and then hitting the right side.
I think overall, Zeta do have really good synergy between their two duelists when sending it into the side.
I think that's one of their biggest strengths, and that's something that we're going to look at at Smith especially.
because the pathing and their spacing between the two of them I think is actually pretty well rehearsed and
Is a big reason of why they get good success going into size. Yeah
We heard from eco in in the post match interview of the previous match right girl that eco actually wanted to step up from the
Initiator he wanted that dualist role and he knew that he had to work well with Absol in order to do this kind of double dualist setup
And he feels like they have been you know improving steadily and we're seeing it here because
Because, again, in their first matchup against FullSense, you didn't quite see any of this
kind of synergy that we're seeing now against DRX.
So I'm really happy with this data roster that they're managing to actually pick things
up.
And this might be an elimination match, but, I mean, lower bracket runs, this is what
they do to players.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, I think it's a huge sum of confidence, right?
I was kind of worried after that, Matt Bond.
I felt like they got dealt with hundredly, and I was kind of worried they would just
roll over into this series.
Once again, they've shown great resilience, great bounce back, now they've taken that map of DRX,
DRX's own map pick, and we moved towards Split, you know, we broke down DRX to Split a little bit,
and I think it's been hit and miss, as Paper then said, you know, Split for Zephyr Division,
they look good on that recently, so I think they'll be feeling very good about this now.
And I think on the side of Zeta, we were talking a lot about the Double Dualist,
I think Absol was one of those Dualists that we really had a lot of attention on,
And he's been really delivering in these past few matches for Zedah.
Yeah, I mean, we had to see him step up after a very poor, incredibly bad from him.
And now he turns it around on his head. I love it when players are able to do this,
especially those duellist players, because if you have a bad map, you can't let it get to you.
You still have to be the tip of that spear. You still have to be the one finding that impact,
and he did that hit today.
Yeah, we're going to have to see even more from him on Split with his double duellist.
We're talking about how nicely they go off each other.
it's going to be him and Eiko having to get into this site and create a lot of chaos. The two of
them actually with the flashes and the entry they do really well. So Abso, I'm gonna look at you to
continue. We don't want to see map one repeat itself. We want to see more of map two if you're
a Zeta fan right now. But I love what you get to learn about this player. The fact that you have
a map one that looks like that and a map to that's so different and even in the middle of the round
you see sometimes how sure Zeta are down by numbers but Abso actually keeps his like keeps his
metal and keeps his wits about him and he's able to turn around so many of them.
I mean I think playing the jewelist is actually a mentally quite a tough role.
Oftentimes you know if the meta isn't great for jewelers you'll just kind of
sent in to die sometimes so I think you can see it where oftentimes they might
have a bad map and it can kind of get to them a little bit but the great jewelers
are the ones that don't let that affect them. They don't understand they have a
job to do and it's not always about them it's about making the space it's about
doing these other things and then when you're able to get the ball rolling in
those other little parts that are important for the role then you start
dragging on top of that so I think that's an in very very impressive match
two performance from him. Well he's going back to the Yoru again and the Yoru was
the one that he had the spinker on for the first one so hopefully that
doesn't stay in his mind too much and he can take the conference from the race
game he just had. The one thing that I do mention that I like how the two of them
entry together is I did see sometimes Absol on the Yoru who was a little bit
too fast to TP so he would send his TP through and Iqo would run in with the Neon
And then jump jump jump because it's usually the neon that's creating space for the yoru to be able to safely TP
Yeah, that would work out of the way around sometimes where the yoru would put his TP he gate crashes. He comes out
The defender is looking at him and then he goes to one of kills. There's not enough chaos. It still works, right?
You still get the entry, but you preferably want both of them to survive. Yeah, it's not exactly how you would want it to
Yeah, there was a couple of moments on split like that, but in general, I think their timing is pretty good
So absolutely we're looking at you once again to pick it up on the yoru
Yeah, and especially with what Ego said that they were working on
I don't think we're gonna see a mistakes like that like very minor mistakes like that as we had into this split now over to the side of
DRX this split was you know caught our attention because they they they recently changed their comp and
I I highly doubt we said this earlier that I highly doubt we're gonna see another composition from a DRX
But this I highly highly doubt that we're gonna see another change
Yeah, I mean, I think I'm swapping to that double initiator right it's the sky tail. I mean, I think it fits the map
It's very very natural. So I'd be kind of surprised to see them move off that once again
I kind of hope that we do see that double initiator. I don't want them to go back to double duelist here
It seems to now be a very common thing
It looks like they're standardizing all the way across their map pool and also I think it can play very well
Into double duelist if you pilot it effectively. So it wouldn't make much sense to go double duelist
I think they can stay with that sky tail and it'd be very impactful here.
They just have to sort of drill some things down, define some things to make sure that they're not kind of doubling up in those areas.
That makes sense. Also, Fring really likes the tail, so it makes sense.
I think also they can make these changes with the double initiator.
If Bane feels really comfortable in slotting in whichever initiator Termi asks him or whatever initiator they choose,
whether it is the breach or whether it is the tail that was on Vine, right?
If he's comfortable to just play whichever initiator, then the rest of the guys are kind of playing Comfort, right?
So human is just playing some more well, right? Which is nothing too weird and Mako is playing Smoker, which he always does
Yeah, right. So the rest of the guys are playing comfort roles
So as long as Bane's willing to kind of flex whichever initiator it is, it's not too crazy
I mean you might want your players to be very very comfortable and in their prime because this is a map that will eliminate it
Either Zeta or DRX. We're seeing our Asian cogs right now. We're seeing a Breach Tango instead.
That's definitely the one we have to highlight here, we saw them play Skytail, now it's a
swap to the Breach, so they're trading off information here, Breach doesn't get you
information the same way Sky does, but it does get you that massive kind of power to
take those spaces and sync up well with the way like which is really what they're going
to be looking for here, very very similar to their Haven, expect these big big set piece
rounds where they're able to hit the sites fast.
I think it is a little bit, it needs to be a little bit more set and more pre-coordinated
and the sky, the sky you can just kind of wing it a little bit, flash out of the smokes really nicely.
This one, if there's a smoke in front of you, it's kind of hard.
Yeah.
Right, so Zeita need to make sure that they're playing behind the smokes,
and they can potentially play on site if they can make this waylay reflect back
and survive the initial util that goes in.
That's going to be really important, but first off for DRX,
we're going to have to see how are they going to play this breach on the defense side.
That's right, double initiator once again for DRX,
send uh yum-yum on the waylay so you like more changes once again and for zeta it's something
tried and tested we're going to see who takes this one and who gets eliminated from k-pop
and passes over to kassar, helios and paper thin another change up here from drx really leaning
into this breached hail with the waylay breached hail shades of cheats of total composition here on
split
Yeah, we've got a big map right here that's a starting out on a tank
year X under fence
Preach tail in 2026
here they go
oh man he had no idea there's a TP past that
it feels big oh i got a double back assight
Maca has an incredible...
Big double!
Oh, here's a more...
Ah, bruh, it's impossible to...
They don't run at him.
It's gonna say, it's impossible to win now with him holding and he starts running at him.
He scares the hell out of me.
Am I right in saying it's a 4...
A 4-1 in the Bistro.
I think so.
Awesome. Down to the eco again. That's making sure they buy so heavy that they're not going to get eco's into this one.
into this one. You would imagine. They lose a B control that's about it.
Oh, what a timing there.
The top-sins ought to be low.
That's nuts.
He has completely slipped the net, but Hermes does check back in.
A critical find.
Oh, someone's gotta send it.
There we go.
They absolutely need to get some of the light back into this one,
as they try to pull all the drifty buffets.
It's gonna be struck down, Mako.
the box eco should do the flush amount just to spot get some damage we'll back away
Mako dies the bring stun a pain in the loop see well it's gonna be a little a
little bit of damage done but still did you try to hold on to my zanis the
guy's bailing out of his stun and he just takes him down just when you update
honestly Mako might have called for that stun he might have been just like just
on me bro and he's calling for help it's calling for you to but the way the
decks actually does this you know deal with the lurk from show top and then
they're able to stall just enough to get their players to be able to flood the
site so they give themselves a decent opportunity you know again the superior
firepower for zeta prevails but one thing I really want to see so okay for the
snowball to continue they're gonna get one out of the next two
We have a little bit of damage done. I guess if they lose this one.
Will they have any ore into that round to help them? Maybe?
With what I'm seeing, I'm not even confident they would use it on that round though.
Oh, it's a big pick.
Okay, Luzma control.
Not in reaction, just kind of at the same time, they drone over towards A to get Info,
so with that they heavily know they're towards B, so we can see it's right, they confirm
the one over towards B, they'll keep the three for the whole round basically.
out early this would be good for drx coming find the pick
all big play knows this guy wouldn't have had the MTP
are they gonna do it oh my god they're gonna do it they're actually gonna do it
they've worked it out they put it together
he smoked here oh god he they think he's they think he's close they may
nice dude and they had the inside over towards B heaven so they got one on the
rotate it's happening again man 2v4 kind of a
must win for DRX
It's like with Hyunmin, as far forward as he is, as confident as he is, he tries to
play it out, but he's a giant price, just a smidge away from being able to find Shota,
but now he's going to be on the back foot of Shota, we'll find him.
Even, he was going to save as well, he got some gun upgrades on this as well.
Another pistol into a bonus, so it's four pistols at the moment, the pistols are four
one, the dude they've got three, three out of the four bonuses.
the refract out you get the good mid-rounding on this good mid-rounding
and again just like buying that inside of it towards heaven and then you can just
quick over towards a at worst it's too over there
they are gonna be burning the hub to the ground if Santa close out the series
they want four bonuses they want all the money
style yeah
I'll call the time out okay
Are you right they want four pistols and every single bonus
This on Haven, some Binds, I mean he might have had something in the comms that he didn't
like, he might be telling them a bit of direction of like how to keep the snowball going, like
How close are they to ult right now? Yeah, they need an ult for the next buy rounds
They could definitely focus on this probably the most likely this one's like
It's a good all but it's not
Winning you getting you into a site
Yeah, I reckon he's telling him how to he's guiding him on snowballing. Maybe a little reminder
Now let's get the good info, instant reaction, push over towards middle, now the question
is do they feel comfy if they go re-clear this, promise they met too.
Wow, he whiffed on the prowler and got stunned, that was shocking.
floor and I'm jumping every corner of my knife out. Just hoping this guy kills me.
Wallace for Zeta, but hey, I'm still good paranoia
So if the paranoia hits absolutely, keep it up top and he goes great. I mean just little things that they're doing are
Extremely well-drilled right now. Maybe it's maybe it's me many's calling in the time out
But he's he's abroad and the connection and get the kill to drop down to make sure you can have the high or lower
There is nice as well
Yeah, let's get that guy up to DSL, though.
Okay, another big round in terms of the money.
Dude, I'm looking at the minimap right now.
They got a 1-3-1, and they want his insta-sight hit.
Yeah, it can't get much better than this.
It can't get much better than this.
Alexi elimination
Can Zeta just catching DRX completely off guard with these change-ups
XEL gets a kill he gets his ult
Jog gets good info too. Do they react a bit different as if they're two here?
Surely my viper starts getting closer
Needs to wait for DRX to fully commit
So the gambara.
Oh, it's so fast from him, it's so fast from Akra.
Oh, it's nice from Bane.
Ah, it's unlucky bro, it's unlucky.
It's really nice from Bane, and that common Bane did so, so well.
It is so, so well on this. Ah, he just got caught back on the same.
As it plans to then, no heaven control, they were scared they were going to fast-flood out.
like better alt in a lot of ways for jerks, especially if they want to play retake
I can see a little bit more of what we saw earlier
from Zedah. Jesus. That's a lot for that.
I have a triple wombo comm on 9 loss corners
if they lose this, you get an understanding of the rounds there, to put it all into it, they have a free site
I did this guy has no backup for 3 years, no, okay, I couldn't see the TP on the minimap
I was like, what's he gonna do?
It's a big kill, dudes.
Yeah, that's a save. That is a save right there.
One-nine loss bonus.
Freeing gets a thousand for surviving.
That's a gun.
That's about it.
And then on top of that, they can get the fade all in this one.
You know it's a low buy, you can let the fade at least get close, maybe one off.
Might keep it going for a little bit.
Deep in back site, there's one kind of by pillar and one in garage like they are
Giving giving no opportunities for Zeta to collect more than maybe one if they do go for those wombo combos chance for short
The freeing to use this party and give him the pit
Nothing retained
Given over to Zeta
Around when and all it really cost them was just a dimensional trip which now absolute playing gonna build up another one very quickly in a half
I
Shit and that was p限 out on the entry with the player up top it was her knees on the viper
they were double-checking
The gun on the floor, that's greedy
Well, they're in trouble man that corner. I saw there in trouble
they're really being diligent and really understanding their situation so now is as
DRX this might be I think a call to get aggressive to find your opportunity to use
those alts in an effective situation where you're going to catch a couple players at a main or
something just got brushed nothing carried over I'm sure the pie is going to look like here but
It's not going to be a great one by any means.
So do you try to invest those ultimates into this round?
Do you try to pull off a thrifty or a half by win?
Or is this widely just a call?
So a minor game plan, maybe get aggressive on this eco attempt and then
something wider for the next purchase.
It's hard to see, but it feels like save division.
It's just have the upper hand outside of that haven.
and even then we started to see them start to come alive
God look at that
that's like a second round eco
they got nothing behind this
got two shares one bandit
so it looked like it was just a minor change in where the
agents were
kind of holding
a little bit of space, but I mean, I don't think that's the answer is this, like Fade's
getting an all-plan 1 kill is probably the ideal, at least the Fade with the plant at
the bare minimum on this.
Sugar Zero should be scared of like a bucky close, really.
It's free heaven control, and Sugar Zero wants this bot no one over towards site should not be crossing this lane.
Not scared to pop the ult against the eco's, wanna keep it clean, keep the money good.
Yeah, that's a gun, but it's good info also, and the Fade get any kills there.
Yeah, they start to work out that they're saving, the money's so good, go on mate, go
Go get him.
Niiiice else.
at least they should be
eco just making sure there's no ninja defuse
he's the neon, you can hang out a bit longer than the others
okay a lot harder for Zed to win rounds about some of these ults
they should lose a couple here just purely because of ults
smoke in case there's a player in there you know
unless they got some kind of sicko and an ult strapped
this case and then the immediately pop pop of the overdrive here to get the crunch out of the players that's again
It's just so well drilled. It's so well thought out and everybody's doing the right things at the right time
Not giving any opportunities to grx capitalizing
Zero seven one. It's the viper over towards middle
Performance from the previous map carrying over bring however with some spam is trying to start the engine a bit
Things rolling once again as mock-up push out
It takes a little while but eventually he's able to find his first kill in the game.
Yeah, I wasn't convincing.
I wasn't convincing.
You might be very much fully focused on the forces outside of A.
Well, now you're left with some bad options as Zeta just winning or losing out on some of those
training trades has put you in a...
It'd be a little rough if they didn't manage to get many of the olds out of them.
If you look into my olds out of this round though, you can fight through, get a couple more kills.
Oh, there's one.
the least important of three of the four well the other one is mako's it's less important
yeah i know that's fine
looks like it's just gonna be gather up in the vent
why don't you just try to overwhelm this
we're just gonna go for a three player push
power check if the spot safe fight is going to be laid but spray from eco
i'm gonna find the kill hermy survives critically that now routes them around the garage
20 seconds if they can trade the low-hp
oh not even a trade needed that's a much up
all of them
I mean, it's every round
Sounds like a way thing to say but it's a really good loss
Would have been as catastrophic as you possibly get an around win
It's hard to imagine that in around you lose it goes much better than that. Yeah, this is
Just madness
Again, great lead of the utility there, kind of suspecting the position.
Everybody, I mean I love the way that, as soon as the noise is being made over and being made with the footsteps of these guys.
You want to keep the snowball going. They got to win this round. 1-9 lost on us on the cards again.
I think it's just with the way those ults start getting later, the Armageddon should have been the checkmate, but you still get the compurgent pats on top of it.
It's just a bit of panic.
Go away from Fadal.
PRX.
Shake it up in a way that...
They contact.
Quite some time.
I mean, it's sites weak, but...
On the back of that, gets one, gets out.
See how it's going to be left on the floor.
Yeah, and that was like the main guy.
Yeah, dude.
Doing a great job starting to control this A-Ram.
I think the snob will stop soon and we get some normal rounds.
a nice set play there. Stunned into saturate. The fuel's run out yet. Come across the hill.
Oh, that drone's gonna catch. So now we can lean this strong side as DRX, which don't
have heaven control, so that mid pivot is still there. You could swing all the way up
into B. If they so choose, all these players are on site. Just open that DRX. Yeah, there's
no time on this one. They would have to pivot over towards B and then...
Oh, okay. Step one.
Mino over 12 spawns.
What a weird round. Ah, surely not.
The Vipero, you guys give me a spam down. How many Phantoms I got?
I got all Phantoms.
What?
How?
Dude, how's my dad got double at school in here?
And then they push out of the hole and get two.
I mean, they've done it, bro.
It's worth two.
so so well
all that kill is
sugar zero
great idea is to get the right signs
all leaked out so they scared of the right signs
his opponent first, Mako
he receives the counter paranoia
he knows a lecture, they did something before they got spawned
look at the eco again every single time
like the worst eco ever, two bandits, one...
two
They're doing it. It just rips them a limb from limb
Fight planted
Those early heroics that window of opportunity that feels like maca was just afforded his team
Very quickly get slammed shut the dRx's fingers are caught in it
ouch
Freeing do any more damage
Killed a go
Yeah, very nice kind of you ever wanted an example of like
Snowballing in Valorant. This is the best half ever
You're on split zero momentum in something out to those of you who are watching right now and miss the pre-show from yesterday
they talked with the Japanese casters they had an interview with our analyst
desk in the Japanese casters and they asked who is the player in Japan that
everybody's talking about that isn't done
absolutely the one that
Japan think has the most actual if you're actually need to get the last two
they have to get for her
if it's simple on this one, we're doing combo, it's near-all, I wish they would use the near-move
a little more in some of these.
Okay, it's a lovely shutdown from Mako here.
Yeah, they need more of those.
Yeah, an attempt at a change of pace here, but there's no utile that's well enough time or place.
The haunt is so quickly downplayed.
So they can definitely use the neon a little better.
We've seen that.
Was it Haven as well?
So it's like this combo with the other ults.
Like neon ult with some of these ults is insane.
Neon ult with Fade ult.
Insane neon ult with the silver ult.
I think it was on Haven.
Like they would win these rounds.
the
Once again, HDRX off-guard, as Zeta's been able to do so many rounds over so far.
Full to the closed.
And if Mako goes for a jump peek, he won't land on the angle anymore.
And so what's titled in for him, he almost certainly would have been able to collect his head.
Yeah, you're worried there as well that Mako's gonna scale into that smoke and cause problems for you?
There was exchange coming ready for the swing. We'll be able to find shut up
Critical advantage here is
City to get this back and forth of the omens outside of garage not bad again
Paranoise exchange and he spots the breach back side has to be cleared out absolute the same time as the dimensional drift
It has the overdrive, but we'll get sacked down
Incredibly well did the backside of these
advantage
It's narrow margin for commitment, but eventually he's able to find it that kill xdl now
Slowed up the hinder about to expire
Twink the corner finds the headshot
He was low HP a little bit faster almost
I think I'm gonna struggle it there a on attack
I mean direct to me happy because I should get something to work with here
Should be so so happy with this
Yeah, and it's been here who hits a great shot first different one
The X cannot let them win a pistol.
When the team's not used Sentinels on Split at the moment.
Dude, I don't know what to say.
They've only surrendered the first pistol of the series
Split at the moment, like the main reason is just because over here
Right, because you have the Viper
Right, a lot of the time this was creating passive pressure
Without the Viper, that's probably what you would take away for a 17-metron as your time
Like you don't have any vision block here, so then someone can just hold watching this angle the whole time
time that people used to play Cypher, but Cypher got so nuts, where I used to be cage-cage
to great pressure. It's not as good as the walk, you can only do it like once, but Cypher's
pretty, I'm not saying dead, but no trips are dead. That's just not really what you
have to do, and most people play double control, it's because the Viper is better on attack,
and then double, Jullist is so strong right now, so you just do both together. You want
You're at the moment.
Uh, Jorgamo, hello mate.
Thank you so much, Jorgamo. I appreciate that. Thank you, thank you.
Well, you have a game today, right?
6pm. Okay, you're gonna go sleep.
Right, bro. Have a good sleep, man.
Thanks for the ride, dude.
back in those days had tail been in the mix but right um okay Raiders with third
map lower lower bracket so whoever whoever loses is out
and Zeta at 8-4 up and they keep winning pistols and the next round pistols at the
for the ace at the moment completely wide open absolute the first one to arrive
that makes it doable
you see the plant for heaven at one point so they should be on top of the fact that
when they take a site they're gonna take heaven
yeah he saw the plant
I'm on top of this are they
forward in the heaven
He uses his smoke to get out. Yeah, I'm not sure you can win this
The guy having to win this all the time
Yeah, there's not much you can do about that. They either had to hold one here for the reaction once they see the plan or save the smoke
and then win in a fight.
Really nicely done there.
This will be the first time we actually see them not snowball into a half there.
And they gotta play with that momentum.
Jumping up onto the Forsaken box.
I want some Melbourne to stay players there.
Here, the URTP.
Should be thinking B all the way here.
Here's that triple high low again.
Yeah, but I mean this is good for DRX right? The passing and getting the M4 on the science.
Just a ghost upgrade in terms of the guns. Good plan for heaven if they want to go run
the world. So what, good damage.
that are uh, sacrifice this, that run.
What do you think happened to Navi?
Maybe a little predictable with some of this, some of their calling style.
Um, they struggled with mid-rounding.
Honestly, my main...
I mean, my main thing in watching them is, I think we're in such an outlaw meta.
and that they're too free to by-lie on the force and they don't want to use our
law and maybe I'm focusing on that because of the
because of the quality of the new Bintfee
The cycle in towards screens the site for now open for the taking of the triple push through the sewers for Zed division
Looking to try to get a massive backstab and Hermes
With the quality said when he was
He said when he was with
on the floor now you go in absolute positions own have to retreat bonus
conversion to come through for DRX is there a medicine kind of stuff that is
doing to a bonus just being so diligent on that they're back to Zeta's plans from
to Valorant I'm gonna work by him this is a shade of what we were seeing on
Haven there from Zeta quick push up mid I just want to see them go back to a
a little bit more default, I don't find being a little bit aggressive on the extremities.
These mid pushes just seem to be pretty well figured out.
Nevermind, okay, it was just about to have that fight in spawn.
Both will be able to go their separate ways.
Just being able to even find the one kill on that flank.
Fantastic work from Hermes.
Rate lead from DRX.
You just watched the send game, dude.
The way the fashion that they went out is I was pretty sure they were gonna lose
But the fashion that they went out was just so much more devastating for them
Like giving them back belief and then taking it away, there's nothing worse
You didn't watch it you should watch the second you should watch it like maybe the end of the second
If you don't have much time, you can probably just do like last 5-6 rounds.
Well, this is reinforcing more towards the A side of the map.
Got that extra gun in place.
This is going to be a meat grinder in mid.
Well, now ultimate, as we try to go for the drone clear,
he could just be struck down, shoot the flushed out,
and get him in able to find two.
Yeah, and it looks like they might be able to keep this clean.
This is going to be a lot of money.
Three thousand is kind of due to a little bit of damage, right?
We're a gun.
Oh, that's a nice X-Act though, did the timing and that was good.
Time's a little low.
Oh, poor.
Okay, now we're going to lock in.
X-Act's a must win run for them.
No.
the best one to give you all.
Do you think they need to change roster?
Send? Nah, I think they're fine.
If opportunity came about and they could get like a...
an obvious upgrade then yeah, but I think if it's not an obvious upgrade you just
give them a go at just actually having time of knowing what the matter is.
and had a bad read on the matter or it didn't suit their double-jewelry style
I think I would and understand if I was the coach personally I would believe in it and
just stick with stage one same team and then just make sure it makes sense
Yeah, just H1.
You can get this one.
Give us all a position.
It's also like a longer term project.
Last one though.
Hope that you can at least force another round.
But they're definitely out of all of the...
If you watch all the teams...
Have a watch, China.
If you look at Double Jewelist,
they've probably played Double Jewelist the worst.
So it's gonna come down to some of that
good defender side mid-rounding,
some good individual decision-making.
I watched I'm trying to think of a team to play once in my hand
It got a lot better at the end
Like the the identity of the two jewelers is is not there man. They need that they need that fearless game
Well, it's incredible
incredible fate ever
If you have like Nongshim maybe the best reader to moan on double jawless at least their own style like they need
they need the identity of the two jawless. Be better. I watch them and I don't know
whose role is to send it.
it doesn't help that one of them is a
tell to me if one of them is a tell to
then he can't be the
sender and
that's what she was at the first two
three games
you know what's going on
spots to should know they're going ropes
should I'd like to see a
shift quick shift from soto over towards
beaver
weren't able to fully confirm
so sugar zero's gotta go big 30 seconds left
it's one of a spike and a one a shot from young men
finding sugar zero on the jiggle peak
okay it comes down to the b-main to her
oh mate you could uh wow let's kill for a bane is having some impact right now
i should have been able to swing that maybe fine too
it's bottom to one it's there spring still tucked in the mail just around the back of
the site be mean one point
with the
spider error is that a very much spiraling out of here
the charge the whole time but I didn't even look I was I was looking
at me and I'm thinking this was a normal joy at a child
time
we actually pushed into be mean with a judge
and they never push be mean back magic for Zeta
Yeah, I don't know what she can do then.
Big Joel, yeah, Big Joel is just trying to jiggle peak with a judge.
Actually, nothing he can do.
What do you think about heretics after the Navi game?
In heretics, well, if you look at them in a very similar spot to what you're talking about Sen, where it didn't look like the double drill, like they were one of the worst double drillists.
But now it looks like they've worked it out.
Yeah, yeah, if you lose, you'll drill there that easily without even getting the pair in the way out, that's...
Then comeback on Neon is the play, man.
That goes on very quickly for Zedah.
I think they're gonna...
Now you're able to pull off a couple of...
The question is, is it too late for kickoff?
I could absolutely use one here.
I thought it was, but honestly, after watching them...
It was yesterday, right?
after watching him yesterday
I think they might have a good go for it
comeback has been a lot better, but it's also like his role makes sense now
so much better comfort for him
and they have been trying to lean into his comfort a little bit
Oh, this one comes like a pretty dope round, man.
Okay, they're fully believing it.
It is a low buy.
They've got three guns into this one.
Fade all goes over towards mid hits too.
50 seconds on this one.
They did just kind of clear over towards A, so they keep the heavy leaner 3 on B.
Good info.
Two still.
Nice shot.
Braw.
This smoke, man, was nice.
Good info, two still, nice shot, brah, this smog man was nice, the smog at the tops of
the guy peeking could spot feet.
They're good though bro.
Is there a gun to pick up heaven?
Oh, great shot.
Great shots.
And the big win for DRX here is they got the fatal item.
Yeah, that was such a nice move.
sent to use as a class
you're playing Marvel Rivals, nah, it looked pretty fun though
but I reckon I'd get bored within a week when it's one of those games
to drop
All that has to be cleared out and it is young men
speak through
What a weird round three get over towards sign your tps actually on this guy's head
They're losing numbers now, Xl is going to be struck down eco, fighting back for one.
They're going to be done, this is Epsol!
Signed, sealed, delivered, first class mail directly to Bings Dorms.
The wheels are playing, what's the purpose of this?
That's the first time I've done that.
That did result in ground winds and the results in a strong path passing more.
The best example to send Riot, I think, is like why this game maybe needs some changes.
The momentum...
Yeah, I mean they're done.
The momentum snowball of double economy is too much, man.
We gotta change something.
What changes need is...
They've even gotta change the way that like loss bonus and stuff is done.
like the insta reset in cs you like go down one instead of it being a full reset
you could copy the cs thing or you gotta handle the orcs so um no or orc for a plant or diffuse
i think you have to do one or the other i don't know if there's like another option
it creates upset so it's good to watch yeah it does though that's
I mean, that's the thing, that's why they might never change it, because it means that everyone has a chance, and that's why Barla's laws are a thing, right?
70-30%, you always give the team 30% because they can do this.
Ah, that's a sick round for them.
He's actually falling here in habit, his frames are flying too, but Muggle on the reposition, top flat, dancing around eventually, will be eliminated, Ziko finds him with a right-
He's got the best chance, and he actually is going to get there relatively fast.
He just has no idea.
We're going to do a play at the moment
TFT and
If I'm gonna play an FPS I'll play CS man. It's just
Faster faster to get five stacks. I don't really enjoy playing like a 5v5 shooters
With randomness everyone's mentally
Not great. I don't want to gamble that I'd rather get people that I know aren't
Mentally struggling
I'm five second Valorant's just dead man it takes five minutes to get a game
It's pointless
Okay four
Those are the best chances
Where Zed on the other side of the map were the ones fighting back after losing the player too early
Now it's DRX's turn
Give it it right back to him
It takes ten minutes the most mate last time we five stacked it was 20 minutes minimum
We had a 32 minute like after the 32 minutes I was on my own site
Yep, and then and then when you do get a game it's like a rainist's math as well
is like this is the point all the stream sniping
stillsnt not a good one its not a good experience
hit bloom into bed come hit diving board and ult's a plenty available to DRX aside
as freeing draws burst blood what could be the last round here eco gonna be struck down
the merchant path set and they're about to expire sugar zero finding a timer
Haha, big timing.
Big timing.
Is there a...
late resurgence?
Okay, I mean it's gonna be
incredibly hard
but they got some relief.
Dude, look at it.
Oof.
I'm gonna lose mine
I've been mined
I can't think of another way to go with the fight
My fight in mine? Yeah
What? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm gonna lose the fight
I couldn't think of another fight
Idiot
I'm right there with you though
Oh my god
that 10 and 10 and 10 so the Sota exchange dinks with phantom's but uh I already that
last round is wild see here no they're crossing you know they're going up it's
gonna be on the Sota now you don't have in spaces oh no my guy the tunnel vision
What?
But no, he messed up his movement.
And then he got tagged and then slowed him down.
And he didn't TP.
There you are.
Oh, there it is.
You gotta give it to DRX though.
snowballed incredibly well back, and it really did.
I mean, I've been a bangly game, and it's the best example of a game I can ever get of just snowballing in this game.
It's my man's word.
Teller come back there on Split. What an attacking side they strung together.
Only dropping one round. Puns in a row there. Completely snowballing that match out of control.
And it was some nice return to form after a struggle for players like Mako Bane at a great Split.
Youngman as well continued to just be so solid throughout that entire series from the get-go from
map one it's up and freeing to um but a big round of applause yeah they look
better than i thought yeah i mean i don't know if only it's gonna give them some
relief as well
going out early doors in this tournament it's not in last place it's not in that
you know 12th 11th position they definitely had me believe them
a much more contentious series here than we could have anticipated we're starting
to see the interworking team we're starting to see
A return to form a form found as absolute back-to-back
Fantastic maps for him overall. Yes, still some mistakes the team need for to right in front of fame things like that
That can be tuned up and now they have a good amount of time to do so
We will see them again in stage one
But if this is an indicator for what we can come to expect
I'm hoping to see continued growth of hoping to see that continued improvement because this is a zeta
That I can really start to believe in and leave it
Okay, I will be
Watch the interview and then I will be back
China no, I'm not gonna watch China. I'm only watching China if they do well at Masters first Masters
Well done free congratulations on today's win now
Right off the bat, I want to ask you about the comp change. Double initiator, solo duelist, Wei-Lay.
What did you guys start prepping for this comp and this change? Because you guys played new comps all across 3 maps.
It's not easy to change the combination. When did you start preparing for the match?
I think we prepared for the match after the last match.
We thought it would be hard if we used the original combination.
But we needed a bit of a metaphorical pick.
For Anax coming into this week, so we tried to pick some more meta picks and work with it with our new comps.
Well, you mentioned how you try to make it easier by going with some mainstream meta picks.
But when you kind of take a look at it, double duelist and high tempo seems to be the mainstream meta at the moment.
But it looks like you guys kind of stayed away from that, decided to slow things down for a bit.
What is the plan? Why the comp change specifically?
What are the changes in the combination?
First of all, the defense is...
It's because I have a lot of sleep.
The most aggressive thing is the combination.
The bridge tower and the waylay that requires a lot of damage.
That's why I think it's good.
Then I think this combination is much more comfortable to play and it fits well.
I think it fits well for DRX.
Well, when it comes to defense, we're just like, yeah, we know what to do on stage, we're experienced, you're on your own, try to defend the site the best you can.
When it comes to attack, Breach Teho is super aggressive and it also creates an easier way for Wei Lei to enter the site and create space.
So for us, I feel like this kind of comp fits DRX style more and we're feeling pretty comfortable with it.
Now, next up will be FullSense. How do you think RedCop, the double initiator, will do against a team like FullSense?
Well, in the last series, Hyunmin on the neon really didn't get a chance to focus on his
aim and shoot.
But with this new comp, I feel like he's more comfortable and gives him more chance to
frag.
So I think we would do really, really well against full sense with the recent changes
that we've made.
Thank you, Fering and best of luck against full sense.
Yeah, it's not happening for a bit, surely.
I think full-sense will be favourites, and I think no matter what, even though PaveRex haven't been playing great, they're still favourites there.
Yeah, the chance of us getting into pretty slim.
The cut has worked out there now.
Okay, I'll be back in a little bit.
We have a Genji against G.E.
We do have a lot of strong opponents for them to get into the side.
And we have a joining us on the desk. We have a special guest.
We have Yum Yum from DRX. Hello Yanmen.
Welcome to the desk and congratulations on that win.
First up you're wearing the wingman, Dini. Is this you channel?
We were thinking it's you channeling your champs form.
I guess my teammates just said give us good luck.
That's why I just started wearing it.
Well I think they're absolutely right, it did give you good luck.
I wanted to ask first because Freeing mentioned that you know this was previously in your
previous comps that you weren't able to like frag out as much, so does that mean that like
this is like for you to feel more comfortable?
I guess overall as a team we wanted some change, so we like for every map we were thinking
of what agents to use and this is the comp that we came with and I think we're doing
pretty well.
What are your thoughts with the...
You know, you're playing the Wele and a lot of teams don't like playing the Wele as solo.
Yeah.
Do you feel like you consciously need to think,
I need to make sure I don't refract too easily, because a lot of utils going in for you, right?
And then you're going in, make sure, if you're going to go back, then all of it's for a waste.
And then of course Mako is also more aggressive, teeping in with you.
Is that something that you consciously need to think about?
Yeah, definitely, because I try to use my teleport less as possible.
Yeah, so like when we are playing Yoru Reili, I was mostly going in and
Supporting my Yoru, but as for solo Reili, I think I can't really go back as much or else it's like you need to be so greedy
Yeah, so I try to stay in as long as possible and if I really can't stay I just teleport back
But we save some skills like in case I have to teleport back so we can like push for the second time
So I think
It's definitely working out well. I want to ask you about the next match against FullSense.
We just heard Freeing say that he thinks you guys match up much better against them now with these changes.
How do you feel about that matchup?
I think he says whoever shoots better, that means they have nothing much.
It's going to be quite the match to watch.
Now, I wanted to go back to us, because Zeta had a bit of that lead.
So, when did you feel the comeback happening? Was it because you guys managed to switch on attack or how did that feel?
We were just saying as a team, let's just win one pistol round and I think we'll be able to come back and we were able to win the attack side pistol and I think that helped us a lot.
There was, step by step. And because DRX is making all of these different comps in different maps, I was wondering how you are adjusting to, you know, needing to absorb all of this new information?
How quickly are you adapting?
Yeah, so all these comps we are playing we have played before
Like with different comps and we're just like mashing them together
So I don't think it's much of a like a hassle to remember and like start playing together
I think it's more of like repetition. I guess. Yeah, just remembering little bits here and there
Yeah, that makes sense. We had to tell me on the desk
Last week the week before yeah, and he said that with the kind of changes bringing Hermes into the team
That he felt like they were still kind of some teeth and problems look at trying to get the synergy together
Now you guys are kind of starting to win some games a little bit more and it's looking
But up for you guys do you think that that synergy is really coming online now?
I think today's win was very big for us. Yeah, I think as our second win
I think we just keep on playing how we do when we win and I think we'll be able to win a lot more
Yeah, it's that remembering the feeling of winning and really really getting it back now
Now Hyunmin, last but not least, we sent you off.
This is the lower bracket.
So how does the team feel about this lower bracket run?
It's high stakes indeed, but do you guys think you can make it out?
Yeah, so during champs as well, we were at the lower bracket, and I think we were just
on the mindset of having fun, and that helped us a lot, so we're just here to do the same.
Yeah, good vibes, good vibes, make it out.
So Hyunmin, thank you so much.
I wanted to ask one more thing.
On BIME, were you getting frustrated on defense side when they would keep throwing flashes
U.S. trip keep trying to go for something aggro early yeah is any frustration there
because I feel like every time they would give you a flash and you guys would be
either like belong showers whatever and it was just never anyone there I guess
with our old comp is Yoru really on buyin Yoru was on TPing and like getting
the flashes and info but with our comp right now we don't have a Yoru that like
can TP that much so I think I'm doing the role of Yoru and getting like the
first info i guess but if they're not there i just really teleport back and then i guess yeah
we're like getting it's got a shot yeah it's a little bit frustrating you guys do get a little
bit unlucky because of course you guys also pick that map yeah so of course it's going it's going
well in practice so unfortunately um that's just the name of the game yes yeah yeah it's it's all
it's all the adjustment also and then i guess a luck of the draw and who you're playing at that
time so Hyunmin thank you so so much and congratulations on the win we look forward to
your next match. Thank you. Alright that was a yum yum for DRX and we hope to
happen back on the desk here once again but it's interesting to see what goes
behind all of these changes on DRX because they're looking like one of the
more interesting teams to discuss because they're changing up so much and
this is still something that's a work in progress. We're gonna see a lot more
synergy, we're gonna see a lot more I guess you know how these comps really
play into the style of DRX as well, because as Youngman mentioned, he is also adapting.
He's also changing because he's so used to the double duels.
Yeah, it's a new DRX.
We need to accept that there's going to be changes, and there's going to be,
they're maybe not going to look the same as what they did last year,
even though they did finish off the year really well,
but you need to understand that this is new and there's going to be growing pains,
and we need to get on some fun.
I think the big thing for me is, especially if they want to play these Brutes comps,
I want to see how they look the next time we see them,
them because when you play these kind of brute things it's great in that moment
team struggle to adapt but generally when you have a lot of tape on these kind of
compositions they start to lose their power it starts with a little bit more
readable so I'm very curious what we see from them next they're gonna count as
that we see them the opponent's mind yeah yeah and you guys keep re-egrating
that it's such a predictable you know agent so how is this gonna change then
once we start getting the reps in so we'll find out that's gonna be a very
interesting story to watch but for now we move over to our next match it's gonna
be Genji versus GE and this is going to be a banger I think we're gonna have
another long day and you're gonna experience like what we experienced the
past few days here because this is Genji on the lower bracket earlier of course
we saw Genji not quite looking like the Genji of old but now that they're in the
lower bracket I think they've unlocked something yeah I mean they started very
slow into this tournament there's no doubt about it they didn't look like that
old cells but slowly slowly they started to find their form close loss against T1
found them in the slower brackets and now I felt like they can start picking up
steam you know that win against barrel was very very big for them
close OTs back and forth but the level looked much better for the team. I think
they're very much in a similar boat to DRX or I mean the change of IGL there's
been changes that have been made right? Lucky has been doing the calling Ziggs
has come in and he's looked really good on some of the maps and some of the other
maps he's been a little bit lackluster. Texture has been texture revolt. Maybe he's not reached that
highs of prime texture, but he's been pretty solid so far. So it's exactly what Genji needs.
So I think it's very similar to BRX. Genji needs a little bit more time and with even more time
they're going to get better and more solid, but have they had enough time to beat GE today?
Because that's another team that's also, they look hot out of the gates.
right and then oh yeah had some losses and now there's some question marks yeah
it's been the inverse for me exactly you see how you have Gen G like maybe
starting out on the wrong foot now they're looking like that you know
they're on their way back to being their old selves and G started out strong and
then now you feel like they're kind of stumbling a little bit with some small
errors so you kind of feel like maybe G got over excited or maybe just got you
know just that got that verse I guess but when we talk about Gen G of course
We need to talk about how big their playbook is in all of their strategies, especially when it comes to using their ults.
Yeah, so far I think their ult uses in general has been really good.
They have a lot of ultimates when they do change them together.
It's sometimes for me is when Gen.G don't have it necessarily, like they don't have the strict plan,
and they're just trying to mid-run a little bit more, then it's a little bit more awkward.
But you can see times like this when they have a Yoru ult and Astro ult and they give a little bit of a coming.
They do it on quite a couple of maps. They definitely went into the server and just make sure they get a couple.
The retakes have been really good when it's planned out and the set X6 on the attack side have been really good when it's planned out and they can practice it for the server.
Yeah, I mean, I think it really unlocks that extra level for a team. If you want to be competing to go to international, you have to understand your old cycles.
You have to have, you have quite many combinations that you play for. Like a Phoenix comp, it's like you're getting that online as fast as you can.
Understanding your win conditions is what sets you apart from the pack and that's something Gen.G have always managed to do very very well so it's a key point of all of them, right?
You want a snowball, you get the right ults online and then you win more and more.
You need to make sure the execution is good as well, with Gen.G in the past they've done well as two, right?
When you do have those ults, you worked really hard to get all those ult points, right?
If you can have Orbs, you're getting kills desk to get it and now you need to make sure that you've practiced it well in the server
that when you do run your alt rounds, right, that you're taking into consideration what also they have
and that your execution is clean, the timing needs to be clean, right? You need to make sure that you
were in the server, dry running and making sure that those timings are pinpointed. And that's
when Genji are in those situations, when they have two ultimates that are combining, like for
example the Astral Alt and the Yoru Alt, then I think they look really good sometimes. Early
Sova Alt looks good, right? But sometimes when they need to do it on the fly and it's mid-rounding,
Then I still have some question marks over luck, yeah, for now.
It's a little bit of a, almost like a reactionary thing rather than something that was pre-planned, right?
And especially at this, at this point in the competition, you're assuming everybody can drag,
and what sets you apart, of course, is that kind of synergy.
What could also set you apart is, of course, your individual performance,
and Ash, I feel like he's a bit of an unsung hero here on Gen.G.
I mean, I think, for me, it's, I want to see more from this guy.
I think we know how great he can be, and I think in the past he has been that guy for Gen.G.
or when he was on that initiator though. This year he's moved across, he's on to this
smoke troll, and for me he's very much still finding his footing. He's probably the biggest
question mark I have on Gen.G, where if he steps up he really can be that hero, but I
haven't seen enough of it yet.
He actually frags on the Astro a little bit heavier than the Omen, which is quite interesting.
A lot of times the Omen is a little bit more aggressive. And his Astro-util at times have
been questionable especially the first couple of games has been a couple of
missed Astro pulls and everything there but so far he's been fragging pretty
well but for now I think he needs to up his fragging on the Omen he needs to get
in there he needs to get in and behind zinks and texture and be able to be the
third guy in and trade off. Yeah exactly. What do you think it is in the playstyle of
like you know as an Astra versus an Omen that might maybe make him hesitate? I mean
they're very different after much more defensive much more supportive Omen you
You want to be power-noying, teeping in, you want to be aggressive, you're kind of a trader,
you're part of that path a little bit more.
So it's very different in style and he just seems a little bit more comfortable when he's
playing that's a multiple.
But both are so different to a Sova, right?
For a Sova or a Fei to all of a sudden move over to, yes it's the same role in terms of
controller, Astro and Omen, but those are completely different just as you explained.
So then to go over from a guy that is finding information and speaking a lot and now all
of a sudden you're an anchor for the team, right?
It's very different. For the Omen, you're aggressive, you're basically like a second or a tertiary duelist, and then for the Astral, you're anchor a lot at the time, and you need to be giving stars at the right places and everything, so it's quite a big adjustment for him, and I understand why there's some growing pains, maybe, and some learning curve for him.
But as a player that is individually skilled as him, he's brought Genji to frag, and that's what he needs to do if they have Lucky on the demo.
We already know Lucky is not the heaviest of fragger, but if he's going to be your IGL that's going to be your mastermind IGL
That's going to be coordinating everyone because that's what he's brought in to do to throw the support of you though
Ash needs to be fragging as well, right?
You cannot have two guys in the server that is saying to the other three
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I think they're going to be pushed to that limit today because they're up against G
Yeah, and we know G they're actually like they almost have this brashness towards them like with their play style
They're unafraid of actually going in there that you almost have to feel like the coaching staff is actually holding a lot of their players back and saying whoa
Whoa, whoa slow down here because these guys are very very eager and eager to pack
I mean, this is a team that are gonna be very disappointed that they're in that lower bracket their middle bracket game against Dfm
I mean, I think they feel like they should have won that they sort of that series so strong
Partman had literally the best map ever and then after that things sort of fall away for this team
DFM come back with that reverse sweep and now they find themselves one step away from elimination. Yeah, it's gonna be
I want to see what kind of form a global East first will be in to Jay because they they as we mentioned
They did start off strong and then suddenly it's been a little bit rocky and we're not exactly sure what's what they're on
I want to see I want to get global East first that was starting out from like the black very first match with that kind of energy
But I do think that like play for example like autumn has been steadily improving throughout GE's matches
Yeah, even though they did lose their last series Batman of course dropping that ACS record in the first map
Yeah, absolutely insane. So I like for them right they can take that confidence from that one the other guy
Oh, then was actually getting a lot of those first skills, right?
We said earlier on even when they were winning. We wanted to see a little bit more from all
Yeah, right and we needed to see more from his euro especially with the operator
He can use the operator, but he needs to use it at a higher ceiling
But he needs to get more of those impact frags on run rounds and that's exactly what he's doing
He was doing really well with those first skills
So that's going to be something that he's going to have to do against Gen.G today because it's going to be important
You try and take down texture try and take down zinks before they get into the site
Yeah, there's a double-do this can't just jump into your site. Autumn's gonna be important
Yeah, I mean I think he's the guy who stepped to the most in that last match
I mean, obviously Pat had the insane, insane Breeze map, but he also was consistent the whole way throughout the series.
And I felt like he always got his job done.
He's playing this yoru, and you know, a lot of times now, there's something to leave him on solo Julius yoru,
here and there, or even then, he's having to just be kind of the hard scope player, basically.
He's on this up a lot, he's on the outlaw a lot when, you know, the player against that anti-eco,
But he's getting his job done. I think he is one player that we can really expect a lot of in this market today
Yeah, and we talk a lot about you know all the players on a G even a lot of a Pac-Man and you know him breaking records and stuff
Udu-tan with the Vito-tan and Javi as well when we look at Crystal though
Of course a lot of you know what G is able to accomplish is because Crystal here
He is able to set up the team for that. Yeah, he's been pretty decent for me on the silver
But for me still on the fade he's both of them played five times so far
And we need to see a little bit of a higher performance on the fade
For now he's sending his utl I have to say is not bad at all
He's sending sending good utl and every time we hear the comms you can hear he's very active
Right, he's very much talking like a secondary IGL and he's giving a lot of information as your info initiator should right but
We need to see a little bit more fragging from him similar to we were talking about Zeta XDLL
We needed to see a little bit more. We were talking about these intro initiators
fragging and showing once again that it is possible we see Kushi is at the top
doing the exact same thing so it is possible. Yes it's not the easiest role
to frag on but it's possible and we need to see Crystal do it. Yeah but if you're
able to do it it'll lock that next level realistically. If your info in it
starts frying people in the server you can go as far as you want. Globally like
the top teams in the world they have these fantastic
Recon players and it really does make a world difference. Yeah, and we highlighted the players that we want to see more of so
That's really interesting. Of course, we have lock-in Ash on the side of Gen G
We have Crystal as well on the side of GE going into our map beat us
But we're seeing Breeze up first followed by a miss and then a haven
This is gonna be really interesting going into Breeze for these two teams
Yeah, I mean Gen G choosing to pick it not at all scared of Batman. They don't seem to be fazed
What records G coming back with an abyss pick and we'll be ending here on Haven if it goes to this
That's how very curious about Haven. I'd love to love to see this map because I want to know if G come out with that
Skies over again. I hope not
But I'm interested in this this video it is it is interesting that it is really they're not they're not scared of Batman
I wonder if they're just thinking it was very much a Pathman show and maybe the team
Wasn't that impressive? Yeah, I'm kind of wondering if they picked up on any tales like when I was watching G
Flavories, I felt like they had some great set pieces. You see two different smokes
So there's three for places they all who can TP but maybe Genji have a read
We have to wait and see maybe well texture did say that like you know
The Genji is basically approaching G just like any other team
And I think that's the safest way you have to approach any match.
And this match, they also have to approach it with a very, very calm mind.
They can't let the pressure of the lower bracket get to them.
Because this is still an elimination match.
Who is going home? Is it going to be Gen.G or is it going to be Global Esports?
We find out as we send it to the stage once more.
of
The maps are done, Breeze Abyss, Haven, Breeze to start us off, GE pick Breeze, and GE pick
Breeze.
I mean they both have a good Breeze, right?
and Gen G is taking on GE. If you saw that fight that Gen G had to put up against Varyl earlier this week
Oh, you know that Gen G is ready to make this lower bracket run. They just eliminated
some physics. No, it hasn't been that. I haven't seen it for a while, man. This is a good new game.
There was a lot of fire fights in that previous game. There was a lot of chaos today. Maybe a little bit less chaos in GE.
We're just going to try and be a little bit methodical.
We're gonna go to Breeze first,
where they did look really good.
They actually got E.C.O. twice on their attack side
and they still managed to get 8 rounds.
I don't know. I think maybe a little bit more chaos would be perfect for this matchup.
I can't believe they did.
They're up against Global E.C.O. and there is something, something, about the Global E.C.O.
Everybody knows it.
Yes, GE hasn't had a lot of success in the last couple of times.
It feels different with record-breaking performances from players. It really does feel like taking down former Masters winners could be a possibility
Yeah, I mean this is a roster with a lot of expectation both externally and from within the team
This is not a team that thought that they would see themselves down in this lower bracket
They see themselves at Masters Santiago, but they're out of lives out of chances
They have to win out from here
It progresses every week
We want to see big step-ups from these players. We want to see them execute play that clean Valorant that they're known for
And just then they might pick up some speed to take them all the way to Master Satya
I really want to see more handshakes. I really want to see everybody on G get their own separate handshake
I mean you see Udothron having a little bit of his like cross needs to look away because of admitting that he's like the best Vito
I think but I think everybody needs a handshake as cool as Pats
I'm happy to see just one handshake. There's no way you should be practicing handshake
Preparing handshakes
And I think that like if you look at Gen.G's form in their previous match
You know that they can actually feel that this team is coming together. Their latest addition Zinx actually had an amazing match
And I think that this was the warm-up that Zinx was waiting for. Absolutely. He was the guy in that series against Varl
He stepped up in a major way. We got to hear from him afterwards. He settled in more. This game has to be really close, Varl.
more and more confident I think it's a good chance to G go map down though. Gen G is confused
because Miss Gen G is our team that's gonna roll over and it's not a team that's gonna throw away
those rounds in the same way that we've seen before. Yeah he likes to get active he really he's not
scared to go for a lot of aggro plays even if he does go down he's gonna take the risk again
I really like that about him with with GD they're gonna have their hands full with texture and and
Zinx going after him. Ozzy Ozzy Ozzy. I love it. I love that that became the
battle cry of GD. I think we just had to have that in there. But now looking at
our compositions we are seeing Yuditan on a veto that's becoming quite the
signature for Globally. Yeah I mean this kind of thing we would expect across the board.
Obviously last time we saw this for Globally Sports, Popman on that omen had
the most insane game we've seen but I think across the board this is a strong map for them
everybody's on these comfort roles so I think we would expect great things here
they are gonna start on the attack side though we sometimes have a couple of question marks
oh it's pretty mixed more g-believers than genji
wait i'm actually surprised i thought it was i'm a little bit surprised
wow okay i thought this was gonna be a lot closer than than
than that and even on the viewership side okay all right a lot of GE believers
here and could you blame them away being the favorites against Gen G I am not
sure we see enough of that.
And guess this match started over to favorites it and Akilius.
Are we overing GE? Maybe.
Thank you very much.
A lot of believers.
I've shown some good stuff.
For this prediction.
I'm winning the prediction battle right now.
He did take a punt in the last one, he went for Zeta, and for a bit, I thought you were a bad guy!
He didn't really do that.
But this is very much, I think, a toss up in my mind.
It's just going to be, you know, is JTG going to be able to build a momentum, playing it back and back much,
if we can see from them when they had gone on their runs to go, you know, to then be able to go on to win
the first international trophy for the region, or is it going to be a good point?
Yeah, man, it's been too long.
It's been too long.
Like that's a GE. He just wanted to have a little bit of success now.
Like at least the playoffs, man. At least give him some playoffs.
A couple of wins that maybe he thought they weren't going to get.
I mean the secret side of doing that be I'll be in front
Okay, okay, it was who's down to one performance do I do comes again g on attack Genji on defense
No, not really, but if he's even having a smidgen of that same it's a little bit longer in
traffic.
Got double sheriff on this.
That's true.
And Gen.G does look shaky at times.
It looks like sometimes the firepower will be even more.
And TP back over towards A3 passing there.
Get better and better.
Quick with the smokes.
TP in.
So the jumps are from outside.
TP in.
The double.
Ah, it's a nice idea though.
They did though, they wanted to go all the way through
Ooh, Misha
He kind of got the door about the same
Ah, it's a Masha
Delivering a kill brings it into a 2v1, but your verse is crystal
The clutch demon spot out should have seen that his team his teammate
Be watching the UI there swing it headshot to ash
down
This clutch demon and the lock you a valor as they play a little bit
Whoa, nice clutch from him.
Is this a 2v4 at its peak? I think so.
Then they kill spawn.
The shot was okay.
They got a lot of racks. I would do different smokes, personally.
That's a monstrous one that takes an early wind out of the sails of Genji
This thing's gonna be kicking himself nothing over that angle one or none
Should have never been caught by autumn in that position
Began which autumn getting caught by a stray shot through the box down to 70 well they got two ecohounds
Decoy have you let a bloom?
Three players in the opposite side of this one, so we'll just make a TP exit now
Now you've got four players ready to attack in the B-Site, where for the moment is only
Ash by himself.
Set the planabula, jumps up onto the half wall, sees the TP, collects one, drops back
down, trying to play elusively, but quickly can't get over well at the end of the corner
though.
The damage is actually pretty...
But I could definitely lose this.
I'm going to be both cagged up.
Oh, gosh.
Oh
It's all the statistic earlier talking about the thrifties but with both of these quads what they've been able to pull off
One a piece to draw into the Marshall car
30 seconds
I'm gonna take back a sound.
Three guns to pick up, which ones do they get?
Might want to jiggle them.
There we go.
So, one Marshal, two rifles, right?
for GE not quite ready yeah that's so so much I mean actually incredible behind
the smoke and then it kind of look like they weren't ready for the yoru even though they
go faster than shell texture your com thanks with those sheriffs destructive we're caught off a lot
on what you're looking for and GE just could never clear that site they were stuck pinned behind the wall
That cost them dearly there, but nothing else, especially the texture of pushing as aggressively
as he is.
Oh my god, look at the body shots though, you got two more now.
As well as an immense amount of damage across the Utiton and Autumn.
Where is Locke?
I mean, he's spamming all the way from bridge.
I was just like, where did he get that kill?
Just spam it in there.
Great protocols.
Slows down the opportunity to them to make the goal of this, especially his texture.
We'll put this all down on the floor.
Snappy shot.
Mr. 4K could be online nice and early here.
There's autumn with 18.
We'd have to hit a pelter with this bandit.
Stressing back, cutting across into shop door.
National the other side.
Caps it. Swings it. I'm holding it for now. I'm trying to play somebody in. Looks like
Lockia wanted to try to take this one for himself, give that hunter's fury online and
shout.
Very, very clean. I mean, money's incredible, especially for the two that picked up the main
guns in the round before.
Okay, great stuff here by Texture. Maybe you could say a little lucky to not die here.
Dash out, the snake bite in, follow up, just tapping away there with the Phantom at range.
It's a great one, that third one's real nice.
Autumn with the Bandit.
Yeah, halfway to the Hunter's Fury for Lockia.
So far so good for Gen.G.
Big important round obviously, they lose as they go to Eco, got crystal of his ult.
They really got some kind of plan for this.
Ooh, no recon shoes and...
We just bailed?
I mean, they got a trade, it's not ideal if I went down there.
You're not winning out by locking him out.
Barely paid for what is that!
Oh, God.
That was tough.
Two kills out of nowhere.
Say hello to the Lockia Valorant.
He will get himself a three-piece.
He made that one look insanely easy.
Jeez.
They knew he was there.
They were ready, and he just outplayed him.
he had me talking about him struggling aimless
give me the slo-mo
great start
the extra layer that you're not anticipating
oh my god it's incredible
it's the dink that you shift down to your ton of money
it's such an insane to be fair
dink don't money
hahahahahaha
what is happening
What is ding dong money?
No.
Maybe it's some Korean game show or comedy show.
It's very funny is what it is.
Throwing out able to get the car down.
Big TV for the 7th of autumn.
Still going to get caught.
No never mind.
He actually had committed to it.
Zinx just hasn't dead.
You had a time with one before the shorty.
Thanks for the outlock, yeah.
It's probably worth a nearby in Patman.
A close-on-the-half wall able to fire the shots and Crystal can't get a full-fast enough to get a nice spike drop to mention a drift theater.
Thanks.
Yeah, let's wait before I say anything.
Suddenly, global eSports are back into the round.
Like a back-site.
I'm scurring vision.
It's like they may be considering a pivot across, but they knew the position of Karan.
Yeah, I mean, someone else in the plane had to play out of the sidelines of Tech Group.
I'm interested in the GE super heavy defense comp, right?
We got a solo, the solo you're, I get that in theory,
they have two people that can entry as well in terms of like
getting past the choke with the double TP.
This is definitely interesting that they choose attack
knowing that they're probably going to average like four,
maybe a good half five rounds.
So they know that they want to do the comeback basically,
is what I'm saying, instead of like a good start.
There's also a bit of a, I don't know how many people believe in this, I'm at least a believer.
We still like starting on, we still like starting on the tank.
Just because it's, like aim wise you warm up a lot faster, because you're always trading.
It doesn't matter if you whiff too much on the tank, because normally your teammates are going to trade you out.
you out if you live on the fence you can like lose the site lose all around that's
like a theory behind it sometimes as well dependent players agree
yeah they kind of stole around here though
no that's a good win for them he got so many ults on this as well
I got that, backside, backside!
Cool.
The bait.
Texture on the flank.
Oh my god, so close.
Oh, bro, the spin to win again.
It's always the spin to win.
That was so close.
Who won the diffuse?
It's always spin to win, man.
It's always so good from that DIV.
It's the replay that I love the most, man.
Yeah, it's a little gunning that's definitely a couple of these rounds they could have won.
But also, maybe they shouldn't have won the last round.
The yoru ult here? Yeah, you would think that they would just combo, right? Yoru ult
into server ult wins them that, and it's a perfect map for it as well. It's like the
perfect distance from B window to back of B site. If you watch teams at the moment,
if they have these two ult, they'll just go over towards B, just because it's actually
so, so strong. You're like, perfect distance for your ult for anyone back of site, they're
not going to dodge it, you get the good info with the yoru.
Or, worst case the yoru is going to be able to kill the person dodging your yoru.
So they definitely mess up pretty early there with these two.
Like these two is a combo, especially on this map, man, I'm telling you.
This is getting a kill.
Obviously you'd be in there.
aware of that after that timeout you know he's gonna want to get that in his hands
as quickly as the economy feels comfortable so big investment here for
Gen G you drown for global e-sports swing the economy they've got an off of
their own with autumn pushed way up mid very least do you want to the shot goes
wide some of these ultimates out of Gen G
Oh, shit.
Did he stop going to the doors?
No, he's actually aiming, man. He really is.
He is dialed in.
So it's turned to halls.
You want to fight it!
Classic combo again. TP into the corner. They should know about this.
They probably have the exact same strat.
strass
It's really rough a G. It's the whole old cycle they didn't get anything for
No, I mean they're just not reading the map well here at all
Not getting much value on a utility just losing players
You're off to you invest it in
I just...
Not sure. I mean, skirting along that cosmon body, using that having an entry through it to get into the site,
but then to not pay attention to that potential, just wrap around through the... the... the... the...
the fender spawn clearly thinks it's just a little fragile here.
Yeah.
Ooh, he times the recon. Oh, that's not a good default recon, surely.
I get that it scans down here, though, but...
If the recon doesn't scan here you would imagine they're on top that this can happen
Okay, I'm never gonna find out not of this round
Gengius in such a six spot right now
But so many oats money's really good up against the eco can get better solid crossfire middle
I'm ready, so we have a borderlock, he's gonna be struck down by the Zanks, plays in right behind, two kills bound and kept in the pop-up, and they may answer right on Zinks' crosshand.
Three kills for the Yoru, maybe a little bit more. As he arrives on the scene, Texture dialed in once to take these kills away from him for sure.
Any mail with a laugh?
Yeah, I mean...
No haste for you.
for you three thousand three thousand four only one three buy they didn't use
too much you tell on this one the way that they control everything things is
improving he's definitely getting confidence last time yeah last two games
has been great
their own after the smoke comes through and then they the whole time that whole
round zinc slid in behind the cannon the pillar in this can get wet
oh my god oh I could have been so
texture oh here we go here we go mr. 4k online
What's more, no ace, not in this round!
Dude, it's hard, man.
It's hard for Teemo to come out.
It's so hard for Teemo because he has his team working against him as well.
They actually don't want him to get the ace.
Normally teams are enabling people to get the ace, man.
Everyone else is just swinging on this team to make sure he doesn't get it.
He just looks like a defeated man. He's like, I just can't get it.
So much pain. You would have gone and just passed a kidney stone.
Oh, Karan does it once again.
That's so good.
Oh, good lord.
The best part is the whole crowd knows that they're all laughing.
Oh yeah.
He's the butt of the jump here.
I like the little jump that's coming from.
texture watching this exit halls finds another up-draft action the sides look
it's back under fire
and now with no scope
on the bottom
tall crystal is ash
and just drifted across we'll counter straight back out of the smoke
finds crystal and it's a flawless as Chenji
get up eight to two
ah look at these two though
double-dullice just to have to be in the scope is way too fast forget it feels
like anything that global e-sports tries oh and that's so smooth to gets the kill
and nosy's in trouble goes right for the T.P. wait I thought for sure
So fast!
TP close, they can hear it, so they think they're going over towards here.
They do their short default.
They do their short default and they wanted to split over towards A, but now they go to the Viper hole, so they're going to go 5 door.
I mean, the setup is... I don't understand this TP. I guess they missed something?
I think he really missed his TP, yeah. He's super committed.
One HP.
Yeah!
Man, it's my guy been on AIM Labs for just the past two days, what's going on?
Why is he insta-mowing everyone?
making quick work of this breeze they're just so good every little change they
make zinc's in another great tucked in position that minor reposition yep so
little bit step by man
I
Know yeah, that's what I was laughing at he is it actually was that so good on a comedy show
Oh, yeah, it's just
Unbelievably hilarious. I mean, I think without a doubt. He's the most entertaining player in Valor. Yeah
Sure for sure for sure. I wouldn't I wouldn't even say it's close
We had people that were like
unintentionally entertaining in game like angel red guard probably to the spring to mind
but
Textures a bit of both
Oh, that'd be over.
Yep.
This is absolutely over.
Boaster?
Ooh, Boaster's a good one.
Oh, who's actually the more entertaining?
Check forward.
We probably have to say Boaster, man.
You might have, yeah, you guys might have swayed me.
As Lockia, it'd be overwhelmed.
Singed into the back was able to find one,
but Cosmodevide keeps the plant protected.
In fact, it's going to be repositioned.
You want to fight it!
As he's kind of using that Cosmodevide against them,
now setting up their own here, our global esports.
looking for that nine and three half
it's all this counter work by autumn
yeah ultimates around right?
oh what?
what is that click?
that is unbelievable
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh ohoho
I mean they're not gonna win the round but
eh yep
I gotta see it
this is gonna look absolutely nuts
is like a jumpscare
normal speed and slumber
that crystal can do sure
what? what? no! that is illegal!
That is up there. That is up there is one of the craziest shots I've ever seen.
It's definitely up there man. It might be it.
That's the craziest flick I've ever seen.
Yeah, I think it might be the craziest I've seen man.
Haste? Yeah, haste on split?
You're right, that's what it reminded me of. It was pretty much exactly the same.
I think it was more impressive, man, somehow. You'd have to put him side by side.
Yeah, we killed the guy Vence. I think this was harder, man.
It's unreal. I mean, again, this, like I've said, I...
We'll stand by the best breeze team on the planet, I think, and you're seeing why.
but that right there it's just
What do you do?
You die, you're a simple guy
Zinx has been blessed by your power
Join me, you've got further to go my friend
Well, I'm...
I think he had his, you know, had long hair, got a shave because of the build
Let's see if anything crazy happens on the pistol
Yeah, I know, but he could go further, you know
Cut it off
Yeah, just shave it all off
That's what I mean.
I want the cold to paper thin the probes.
That's right.
Man, that was.
We're the same person, though, but that was true.
Pistol rounds at the moment.
Wait, I was about to automatically give him a pistol
because I saw the score, but actually.
It was true.
Right, Piaf.
Setups here.
I'm going to Util, spread across the map.
TP to the other side.
4-1 stack.
Just patting it on his own in his A, but saw how good he could be.
four-person stack over towards B
They doing the thing and they doing the GE thing
Where you hear some sound over towards a you trying to turn them with the sound of the veto stuff that you push them into a stack
Yeah, this is something this is some interesting veto theory and I think it uh
Yeah against like a slow play team
It might work quite a few times
Giants were doing this on their haven. Not that anyone was close enough to hear it, but their theory is like...
They're going to play retake over towards A, but they popped this early once they hear any kind of sound.
And then you think that obviously with smokes, people are holding behind the smokes.
They delay them so much that they might be likely to cancel and go into your stack.
You know, and Autumn will be able to put them down.
So five round gap now is global.
Both pistols under their belt, but I have to remind everybody
that, well, they want it, and then they immediately lost.
And Gen G went on a massive win streak.
Yeah.
So I like the idea there from Gen G
to throw the toxic screen way late
to try to pull some rotations.
It just, believe it or not, kind of happens too fast, actually.
They start pressuring towards B, and maybe somebody
somebody out of place a little bit too far forward coming up the choke and saw
it was able to call the patients back to know on the test though what he was
able to see don't get any good
suspect
deal
it's buying out at least two players up close
close to lead the march hole trying to draw that one in but there could be hat man holding a line for three with the pull dog
with it crystal showing that he still has that reliability it's like the CS
dust to door clip talking he come well well that's the one you're thinking of
comms again but I was like somebody shot at it in human reactions that was a
classic yeah it was a classic so slow going here is it's just gonna be a
quick little exit take that every day dropping back Zinx you love that
give me that paranoia for a TP hell yeah well you the time the hell was that
skin I just saw. What is this bro? That is ugly as hell.
mid cleared it now they know about the presence in elbow no one forward texture
swinging out non-anticipating two players to be here so now they need to try to
flex them out but it continues to cost them dearly
auto pushing board ash widely pinned in at holes
autumn finds his and now it is only lock your left standing
skirting across the back of the route and i believe the spot was there so you
know just gonna be rushing forward towards main to try to intercept and
shut them down it sounds nice
lock it maybe thinking that he had slipped the net a little bit here but
global e-sports
dialed in on this
yeah it does sound kind of nice
not sure I could look at it though
we're starting to build up their own massive win streak to run this back
like the other variant of this skin
it might just be the color man
Yeah, I swear it wasn't this color I just saw earlier. Why does it keep changing?
You can change colors.
The inspector in it changes.
It'll be complicated in the comms and maybe even more so on the side of Gen G. So first time I'll call from coach solo
Yeah, I'm very curious. I can't yeah, I don't like the bright one. It's with like a a dog
I could be right for a start if texture goes out swings, but there's two people there
Yeah
the pool deployed on that attack as soon as texture had gotten dropped and got
that info probably over committed it's only what happens sure sometimes if it
smells like a trap it very well could be given all that free space that I like
the stone version yeah I think I would like it if it was in a different color
to be honest here especially with that veto in play it's just way too much for
me agent to give you grief it's giving a lot of teams grief this year he's been
very
Reliant on it
Times it's not a stellar speaking of you. We get a really long tech pause
Honestly with what's going on in America's maybe we do that at one point bunch of sheriffs
I want to have me skins are in this game that I don't know about
There's probably loads that are on the screen that I just missed because I'm looking at the minimap
to try to scale in this position and then pushing forward towards three players trying to bait the
angle. That's a rewrap actually commutaton so now we don't have that and that's the pressure.
Oh he's so tempted. He's so tempted. Ooh wide. Good wide spin. Thought he had it but
there's a little bit wider and Autumn clicks the kill.
Nice little maneuver by Autumn. It's exactly what Genji wanted. Just a better outplay.
with the drone checking into elbow and seeing nothing
bottom gonna begin his rotation back across to reinforce the A side of the map
I'll be dialed in on the angle
be stand on the clear there but it's gonna be the call from Gen G
they'll be thinking that they've drawn enough attention towards
some time to go for the rotate but he's still gonna reckon with uh recomba
On the entryway to the B site as well as Crystal in the back
No, it's not outside. What?
Okay, well they got the info for it. Really do it behind them as they're pushing out
Bring up a shot and grab the orbit's 12 seconds remaining around Crystal
Just open it up with a spray in the main and Ziggs can take it out
Committed to
Omen
Hopping up onto the wall. They're pretty good to get out of there
to the veto counter wise enough you know you're able to start spraying angles
you're down to play right there you start throwing everything he's got in
front of that choke knows they gotta make a move they gotta make it quick
because of the time very very clean
I know it's a show one because we're in Pacific.
She did also say it was going to be six maps today so, you know, you're a fan of that.
It's looking good.
given the teams we have on stage and given how contentious the first series was
I am kind of leaning into that one looks like it was just
the end of the innards here
hopefully should have everything set and ready to go
on Swabamalek it's a pit stop
yeah it's you know who knows
Usually usually here. It's just someone's ear buds or something or a little little off. Yeah, and it doesn't take long
They just change in is in under a minute
Well that in EMEA or Americas is taking 10 minutes
the other regions I
I don't know
It was so fast man, it's efficient this time into that fight felt a little too coin flippy walking into that
situation
Clear some space door approached by zinks
Players right there if they could get a collapse here a pattern could be in real trouble
Mate
Okay
Southerl oh went back
He went back he was like almost out of there and then he went back great
All the lovely shots
The second one is smooth
the
Oh, they got an O out of him, extra.
Oh, that's what he said, if a show saw him.
Yeah, just go safe.
You did so much.
Got the astral out of him, extra co on top.
breaking across the two halves ended up being a five-round a win streak after the
six-hour tech balls APAC decided to hide the best industry tech bags you can get
got the dimensional drift one of those yeah maybe right on an attacker's side
you're able to get that to get you around and maybe not the way you
anticipated it it wasn't just like off of raw info exactly you lose that player
He's still got a main control here, but if you're able to break through mid, Ziggs flash is nice, the second shot is nicer.
He has been really, really good lately. He's starting to really pick up the pace for Gen.G since joining this good roster.
You don't have a recon initiator, you should have a senti, an info senti. I mean, yeah, that's pretty valid.
There's probably maps you could get away with it, but I wouldn't want to play like that.
I think that's a pretty good set role.
Oh, he just... are they on top of the recon?
Oh, it's still like in the period of just owning everyone.
They just think their UTile is good.
Lucky, a 1HP.
the rest of global just now arriving lock at the same time it's knocked down to
one HP now with Ashen 47 hit into the smoke whoa that's fast split where do you
go from here
across the nebula through the double doors they're gonna try to maybe pivot
this into being
just the time but yeah it's gonna start making some noise have that been heard seems like
no but as the drone goes through and sees nothing oh Lockia he's got to be so much
from this position the question is probably even going to this is answers no I don't want
approaching from fast there's insanely winnable especially they all come from the same direction
obviously they don't know that now he's smoked off Lockia definitely has too
Yeah, it's a nice try.
If he has to go to the T-Mars to get one here.
one here. Yeah, I mean this is just Vito or Pallium really is. I'm also good on the
Sang from GD, right? Big rounds.
Can, um...
Push him back towards Anika.
Yeah, this is...
Uh...
You heard Frost?
Yep.
And, well...
Yeah, this was something I was worried about with the new map design.
Oh, the angle here, but we haven't seen it, so I thought it wasn't broken.
It didn't look that bad just now.
But it's definitely something to worry about.
I thought that was the guy that tapped the sign.
It's an impressive retake really with all that on.
Whoever this was, was it Patman?
I can't remember, but the fact that he didn't show or use any U2,
it did credit so much passive pressure for this guy back to sign.
the poster I mean I had shot so yeah the money not the worst thing in the
round way
man oh this is neck and neck G needs to find some kind of response tough
situation a lot of this is coming down to aim duals are just you know the
defender side is like a must win for Gen G sure those trades are cleaning
really afford another eco in this one
they got good orcs but they don't really combo
everyone at the moment on attack
legit just goes for
this wall tp here
yeah
Well, you should know this is happening, man.
Might be too obvious.
Do they add like a...
...split into it?
I'm looking at Crystal, and he is in...
...I mean, he'll probably go here, but...
...this ult could wreck everyone.
Yeah, here we go.
TP goes into the corner.
Oh, this is nice man, it hit the TP. The TP didn't get best, they can't exit.
They did too much for 20 seconds when you know the X second.
Very, very nice. This is a really nice setup for GE, they know this is happening for sure.
and this is a Vito Valley, what's out about it?
sapped all the util on this exec, they're trying to do the combo with the wall
I mean they had to pass it in place to use the servo as well, like they read this while
yeah, the interceptor popped everything
and
I'm at yeah we'll do um
we'll do one
we'll do one at the end of um
half maybe
half of the next map
I'm the only thing that ever worked was the dimensional drift through mid other than that
Every little maneuver they've tried has been accounted for and I think some of that definitely
Comes down to the veto utility at times other times. It just comes down to sharp shooting good trading
That's what you need on breeze. This is a shooter's map. This is the map where a lot of it can come down to
You know gunfire and things like that. You're not gonna be afforded necessarily as many opportunities to do like
the
great reactors son yeah and they hear a lot there
just let him get sired and use the sub-gita he definitely shouldn't commit here
oh crystal I'm sure you can get away with that
ah they should be fine man these shocks will do so much
It did not do anything, mother, eh?
Haha, not a lot.
Very, very nice.
common this is since crystal gets out of there it's like relatively easy.
Utility called down up there really shows who experienced the non-experienced IGLs
it's um not even sure if it's that it's just like sometimes sometimes at the
moment you're not gonna be able to do a perfect default and have good util to do
like a good site here so a lot of times you got to take a risk on one of those
wherever it's like less util on the site or whether it's not like as perfect
map control default you would want so I actually think like the the teams that
are better at set xx and just essentially like fearless callers who are just like
yeah this will do let's just go they seem to do the best
I think probably boo and poster like the best example to support what I'm saying
like they're struggling a little bit or at least they did the beginning because it's
such a different calling style at the moment with less util. Having more util at xx seems
to be a safer option. Yeah, yeah, for sure. But essentially that's not what they were
going for at the beginning, right? They were trying to go for just better defaults and
and then didn't have as much.
Um...
Okay, now though.
Now this is the round.
Yeah, that's a great round from Karan.
He's been uh, feeling a lot of pressure
Big round brother money's kind of low
Get into the comms with just two seconds they fast accept
It's nice from Gen.G. Just waiting for a reaction.
G.E.
Probably...
Especially in like these structured, drilled teams, the man disadvantage has to go proactive.
They're meant to go proactive to try.
information to either stack or catch people off or get map control and then you can, it's
just meant to feel the reaction is, it's the best odds. They just hold the whole time and
then they group up so they can trade. I mean this is 12 man, I don't understand how G.U.
would be able to win this. Or, I mean maybe if they, they might not clear bottom middle.
It's so risky to go clear that angle.
Is the stars trekking?
No.
Okay.
Yeah, I missed the window, it's unlucky.
If I still A, they've got a gamble a little bit, man.
3D2 still with a pit here in their base, you know, finds another, Lockia gonna be taken down to the K now, setting in as Petman!
They'll go find Zinx to K down to 1, just swinging around here at the time, he's long enough to kill you, we'll be able to find you.
Solid efforts making it costly, but Genji and I are going to be the first to change my point.
Woo hoo hoo hoo, man.
GE's giving them everything they can handle. Gen.G is punching right back now.
See that one more round.
Great stuff on that swing. He'll take down two.
A little bit better, you til.
Gen.G, aloha. I think two from GE can buy heavy armor.
That's one, but that's okay.
It's gotta mention Khan, pretty frustrated the other day after Gen.G's win.
I'm sorry from G, dude, actually loads of them get that behind me, what do they skip on?
Maybe there's a drop that I missed, dude they missed quite a bit, he's got his trip down
as well, dude honestly they got a wave out of Biden I thought, there's only this, maybe
there's a drop, this trip is legit by the way, we talked about this with the chamber
trip, very nice trip, don't hear it until you're pretty much committed into a potential
crossfire and the same time it's hidden from anyone that kind of gets close it
works a little bit better with the chambertrips obviously because it's hidden anyway
I'm in drop to have a lot of money yeah it makes them
dude I was looking at thinking like surely these guys are sober
Astral but it's kind of a fake because I got two of the
towards here so they're trying to make space off of it. This guy finds the trips, oh he
smokes him. This guy had to smoke. Yeah, they had to smoke. There you go, you gotta kill
everyone. Wait, you're going back to A? That's a really good call man. It's a really good
cool from Gen.G. Even with that killman they are so far away. Dude, do I get here? Oh what
a strong pause. Because this guy in spawn he has his ult right off the plant.
You find some like your dad and zinc's an ash now to try to hold this
Just lingering within the smoke, you know, what line through the line
So I'm very aware double sure you kill has the 4k just send it in over time. Just looking at the smoke
Where would I play?
close crowd behind the smoke, that is impressive dudes
this is gonna look so nuts on this
it's gonna look so nuts from his POV
to the right of the rope. Just get a backstabber to lock you, push out.
Man.
Yeah.
Sign up over the top and lock you up, giving it a cursory glance.
That's insane.
Now that is actually insane in the gameplay.
What are you doing?
I'm high rolling the buckshot there.
That's incredibly smart.
That was a ton of frustration from Solo.
This makes a lot of sense go glass cannon for texture. It's a real sore spot for GE
Back to the attackers side again. Yeah, once again
Let's walk down into mid
Phone out from behind
Push the issue look at where these fights are
for one
Man inside top mid
These three need to group up and pick a site where this is going on. Otherwise the tool for nothing.
Get in four, even though he takes a ding.
and then spike runs back oh man we're really we're really trying to mind game
this at the same time this cross map recon I'm pretty sure it was this it's
just cleared all the whole line so I can stay strong over towards A
they know exactly where I did it from but I think that was
of
the
Actually, almost teammates had a close.
Nice shot, man.
Very, very nice.
Very nice, man.
Jinx has looked great past two days, he really has.
Getting, he's getting good man, he's getting comfy.
Such a nice shot on bridge.
I'll do it, I don't think the replay is gonna catch it.
It's gonna be a chance for ChenGi.
The recoil is so good.
step ahead so aggressive at times it works so well for this gen g team
especially here right now play he's been aggressive with space
challenging the opponents judo has been answering back
big fast drill the middle really far forward
see there's so many numbers there
pace forward you can continue to persevere
there's now a two v four to try to bring this map to its end but it's looking
like it's gonna be reset city on OT. Great read from Bobby.
Not gonna make it happen, so unless the Lockia Valorant has something to say.
Yeah, that's a clean one. Four-pass and five in the middle.
Second, yeah we do. Gen G did just play a twenty-teen OT versus
barrel two days ago
certainly get the reps in great flash out that crunch play timing there very
nice for global e-sports
3k for autumn
keepin it going two players with 30 kills
no ton and six
light up the scoreboard
two one two split
Rest of push from Pat, man
Well, you're out
Coming up textures way push out of the smoke just left
It's a new cost
Sure attention tied over towards Elba the same round for him. It's caught up in the open and global eSports now with a very good chance
To gain the lead and map point to themselves
That was huge
He went a little bit quiet for a bit, now he's hit his poppin'.
that early kill the only one the global can find crazy that man advantage you
take the op-up yeah I mean tech just got a fan from here as well just out in the
open no just try to jump into smoking it just takes them all down simple as that
There's no better response there from the GE coaching staff as well, but you don't usually see Solo get quite that fired up.
He really wants to take this breeze. He knows how crucial this map is, probably in this series.
Going over to Abyss, a map that Global Esports very good on, very comfortable on,
Another map where the veto really gives you fits. A lot of this though is just
Utoton giving you fits. He's just feeling it today.
There he is, just a force to be reckoned with. 32, 19, and 0.
An agent that can see the future.
Mate, how are they meant to implement that?
He's autumn.
He's walking back into his elbow, but if he takes it down, and Utoton this time cannot be their savior.
Two kills for texture to start it off
Hattman the next closest
Available the global pushing for trying to build this space just on the opposite side
Man goes down here, right? Does he read it at all? They are shoulder to shoulder now shifting away
Drone through and somehow not getting that spot power spam could be coming out, but it's a good paranoia sent through
Wow moment flushed takes out
I think around from texture
yeah the coaches
which is coming with the hero timeout
close map though close close map
yeah I mean there's gonna be loads of rounds of G
you're gonna look back at for sure like a dude I think
the main rounds are stick out for me the G the two all rounds on attack as well
at a whole motorcycle without getting any rounds.
Not bad though, Gimgir are good, um, Gimgir are good breeze.
They're very good breeze, one of the best, if not their best.
The anti-eco also. Yeah man, there's actually like three rounds within the fast what? Six?
Yeah, half of the rounds at the beginning of this game is, I messed up three times.
session though I think she might be a little bit of a charlatan you know
but this man kind of had a bit of an effort because this is just Gen G's
yeah this shot was
and even like that no but we get ready to go to abyss it's an old timer
they've shown it several times they look incredibly proficient on it
Gen G, just the ones that kind of got bodied by VFM.
It's a 13-in-8 score line, but if I'm taking the win or so,
I need to see improvements for Gen G.
They want this to be a Q with 0, fast to pair.
Otherwise, the police force...
I mean, this is one of the bats' V2 maps.
This is like that.
You know, Todd could be looking at a third and final map,
but for now, we'll send it back up to the analyst desk.
OK, I'll be back in a little bit.
Yep, I think our Oracle Gen Lee was correct.
We may be going into a full 6 mapper today because that overtime spells out these teams
really really wanting to win this.
Unfortunately for Global Esports they lose this with 13 rounds and Gen G taking 15.
This was pretty intense especially when it came down to those last few rounds.
Man that was a crazy game.
You had people flying on both sides.
It was always going to be tough for them starting off on that attacker side.
Their defender side is really where they look good.
That's where they truly dominated DfM.
So they just had to hang on in that first half.
They got three rounds and you start to think, is that enough?
Then they make the comeback, take it to overtime just to fall to Gen G.
That's a killer for global e-sports.
A pretty good performance from GE though.
We thought it was Jover after that first half.
We thought it was over and then it did show why this composition looks so good on the defense side.
It looked really good in the defense side in the previous matches as well, that's where the strength was.
For Gen.G actually interestingly, last time I thought that their attack side was the better half for them and their defense needed some work.
And this time the defense of course with our MVP from Gen.G with Ziggs and Texture putting up huge first kills, huge openers.
It's just the two of them raid bosses on the defense side.
But then on the attack side, it seemed like they were not exactly sure what to do with Amito.
Yeah, I think that's the big thing is even if they're attack aside look good in the past. It was not against this competition
It wasn't against you the time who was absolutely cooking them once again on this beat. I mean, he's that's his signature at this point
He's looking right. Yeah, no, absolutely. We knew that the beat of time would come out
It's becoming the signature for global eSports at this point and the signature for you to turn as well
But of course there were a lot to I guess question on the side of global eSports
I mean we were you know
There is a lot of discussion on the single dualist for example and how autumn performed.
Yeah, sometimes it really is hard. If you're trying to play the single dualist, you can see if they do go, they pick up the OP to see if they can get entry for themselves, they're going to default around the map.
But the problem is, if your operator goes down and everyone else just starts walking in and trying to see if they can get into a site.
We'll see soon, we're finding information here, we're going to pick up the AMAIN for Gen.G.
But the moment, if your OP does go down, in order which is going to happen just here,
now, what do you do with these?
You're stuck. You really are stuck because now you don't have that burst to get through onto the site.
You're kind of missing, you don't have the flashes in the same way.
And when your composition is built around Astra Omen, it's about taking slow control of the map.
You're very, you know, being able to scale up over time, but you don't have that initial burst,
especially for trying to get into a site with a viper who can just put that all
but Molly down things like that you really are going to struggle to get
these rounds up we saw that play out obviously they defend the site much much
stronger but when you're only getting three attack rounds that's including a
pistol by the way you do put yourself in a massive deficit I was going to
surprise you can choose to start that attack aside yeah it is you're gonna
sometimes you're gonna have to I think they could give themselves a couple of
more rounds in that attack site right that is the thing that's the risk you're
running if you're running the solo yoru right if you can give yourself four five
right five you're good enough if you can get a pistol even if you don't get a
pistol you can get four yeah or a pistol and you can get five right you're
feeling so good if you're frost I mean just think back to it they wouldn't
have pistol then lost round two they win that round two it's a different game
entirely so you know it's a game of interest it's you know those small small
margins that we went in and lose it and we saw that play out here in map one yeah
Especially with a scoreline like that. It was 15 to 30. Can you just imagine if they managed to get those early rounds?
Perhaps this wouldn't have been as close as it was and ultimately it came down to Gen.G.
Individual performances across the board as well. Oh my gosh, Zinx is awake.
Just look at how well his tan works with texture.
This guy, since last game, is looking at a different person.
He showed up in an absolutely crazy way. Him and Texture, especially in this first half, is what got Gen.G so many rounds.
Ultimately, it's what got them across the line-in. Overtime, whole team struggling to win an attack round.
Texture's the one that walks in, gets a double entry. I thought he was gonna get the ace here.
Crazy move from Karon to Snipe this, couldn't believe it.
Or they definitely lose the game if you get the ace.
For sure.
So Karon, the silent MVP, I think of this one.
I also really like that we see two very different styles of defense.
Yes.
You can see the Gen.G with the double duelist is all about getting the OP and the Yoru in unpredictable positions.
That shop, by the way, crazy!
DIRTY!
There's no way he meant to do that.
That one could do that.
He's a lucky boy.
He is an extremely lucky boy.
But I do like the style differences, right?
Being unpredictable, being in different spots, we saw Ziggs also at the double doors.
Being unpredictable of where he is and trying to catch the kind of GE off-guard.
Because he don't want to give GE pickups.
Yeah, but you want to force them to try and execute, so you are taking a risk if you're going a little bit more forward.
And that's when we see Texture and Ziggs how important it is if they're taking the risk of going forward and looking for those first plots,
you can't give it away because if you're going to give this GE team, which is what Barrel did right at the start,
if you give them those first plots, they're going to have an easy time with their solo duelists and they're just going to walk in because they're always going to be men up.
Yeah, and of course we have to also give some flowers to Yuditan who was frying on the side of GE
I really really do think that Yuditan here
He is like he has one of those players on the side of GE that in case the other players are not performing at all
He can actually just close around and when so many won the excess
Yeah, I mean he played so well
He was obviously the key reason for the defender side where they saw crawling away back into the game
I still think teams are having a lot of trouble dealing with this veto
He's able to be in a lot of unexpected positions to cross the map
He has a different set of utile than you're used to screwing against and I think he was him that really put a stop to
GMG there, so he's got to be kind of kicking himself. I mean, it's hard. You get 32 kills lose the map
It's hard not to be like guys come on. Yeah, I know he played his heart out for sure
But that's not the end of the series. Of course. We are going into a map to we are going into a base
What can they expect from this?
Yeah, I mean, so on the side of GE, we've seen them play Abyss twice.
They've won it twice, and they're playing exactly the same composition that we just saw from the first map.
So expect Moveditan, and expect Orton to try and get himself a little bit more active into the game.
And I will say, have he had a very difficult map won, not good from him,
but when we've seen him play Abyss in the past, he's been very strong.
They'll be starting off on that defender side, so look for Havie to be anchoring B and do exceptional there.
He's really shown great proficiency on that.
Oh, Gen.G, if I have it correct, they did play against DFM and they lost on Abyss, right?
But then they did play against the Vito in that one when they lost, so I'm thinking,
because they lost against the Vito, they went into that Vod and they made sure they did the research on how to play against the Vito.
Because I do think UDETOWN was really good on Breeze, where he was moving around all the time,
even being unpredictable of where he's setting up, right?
So, for Abyss, I'm sure they had to do their homework, and that's what they lost against last time.
Yeah, absolutely. I definitely agree.
I don't think we're going to see any changes coming out from Global Esports here,
and we're not. This is exactly the composition we've come to expect from them.
So watch out for Utitan on that veto.
And same thing for Gen.G. They're not going to change up anything,
I believe, on their composition from last time as well.
We're going to see the same thing coming through for them.
Yeah, so I think Karon on that veto, he's going to go toe to toe with Utitan.
Now it's gonna be a high powered matchup. This is gonna be a crazy day. Global e-sports are gonna be upset that they're down zero to one here
They got to fight their way back into this shot. How does the veto stuff interact with each other?
There's intercepted from them take down another interceptor
elimination matches getting to them for Gen G all they need to do is pull this out
I'm pretty sure the 17 months first one to pop wins
Once again, this could be the wild wild west again
map for global e-sports they choose whether they make a strut back or if this belongs to gen g
they're going into abyss over to our casters paper bin and akilius
map to now with gen g out in front how much preparation
we're on the land nice i'd be respect this abyss should have seen it coming back coast
you'll buy a map
veto should have seen the veto coming in the hands of utoton
on the tank. Two months to two years? Shower that is nuts man. I'm good too fast bro. I
appreciate your job man. The four sheriffs, the Lev special.
that run back to take it into overtime to nearly be able to close out the map
something that Genji is going to be looking to avoid but
now global very much not the
not the west side there. Leve has like an 80% win rate
at the moment with pistols. They buy 4 sheriffs all the time
Genji will honestly be
fast believers of double sheriffs
Nice bro.
Tmv was nice, I believe her, not disbelieve her.
I'm not going to lie. You must hide me.
I'm going to give him the plant and put him half way to the dimensional drift.
That shot, mate, this would be really...
He's on for it! And Crystal will deny him!
It's a nice second shot.
At this point, he's going to be doing it on purpose, surely.
I'm just a force to be reckoned with with that chair.
How's he hit all of these for that?
Here we go again.
I believe it again
Well full five players back here in the main pick up the all lots of me did this they picked up the opening
We jumped off. So this is nice from Gen. G
They're learning a little bit. So I say a little bit
It's going through here quite a lot. They looked at the demo of G. I'm pretty sure this is the team
I'm thinking of last time g5 passing over towards here to pick up the all they jumped off the map
Gen G on this one. They see the smoke and they go super aggro
To make sure they actually can catch them and then they get the orbs
actually been an extra layer to this as well because I think last time maybe they also
popped Frost flashed through this, I think they've lost pistols three times maybe.
I could also be confusing it with other teammates.
I wonder if that interceptor there to catch a flash that might not bother them.
Definitely could be thinking of Varo. Either way, it's online.
No matter what Genji did, good to make sure they could get us all online.
in the headshot, Chris Alhover trying to hold his own.
No, boss man.
Take your gun and on him, spam the way at a back sight.
That's the kill.
So fast and concise, you're RGNG, but with the two casualties it looks like
holding this force in the front, try and play this one out.
And a Dave Snowborne.
Your way over to this A side of the map, drone, to check, won't go deep enough to spot them.
For the moment, no one watching tower, I don't lock you.
We'll turn the sights back there, but it's going to be car on T1 point.
the
Making here for global e-sports. Yeah, I do I mean it just came down to autumn
Okay, Patman gets caught out there trying to hold the line
Kind of set up a bit of a crossfire
And autumn gets those ping reveals and thinks he's got a chance and can't get anything to really go
And I don't know when you're down to just hobby and
And the last player there I
Don't know if you should go for it, you know what I mean
I think maybe you're just better off saving those guns, but
It's looking for redemption gorgeous one from him
Eventually we'll get killed off so a bit of an overstep
Two to two
This is a big boom for global to pull off a thrifty
Yeah, you don't
All you have to do is get one, really.
He finds one.
You could also just stay alive.
Scary, scary round for Gen G.
Beautiful time.
Maybe we can get one here.
Oh, that's good damage then.
Shot on the Karan, but swooping forward, lock ya.
Done great.
Right across there.
It's taking down.
The overwhelm eventually comes in as Karan gets himself
in the back site.
Build found, plant.
In the hands of Ash.
Karan, I mean, one away from having the evolution,
but wouldn't do too many favors in this round.
It's gonna push forward at heaven. They're gonna look to just try to double crunch in
Works a treat for one but Khan does get traded
Bop of the gun swing in the corner ash very much as best in this position
the bike and wins it
Close to the trip deep but not close enough gen g still up four to zero
And it looks like the timer's gonna continue to bleed down. So no flash on this. He was wired. He's just gonna run away quite yet
really individual battle at times in this
scooping out shoot who are patients there to make sure that you know surrounded
at least give up another one to attack somebody else on the cross
4-0 couple Alts in play autumn has an operator in his moment there
Oh they're both shooting. They get pretty good info man.
But the most seems they might have been tempted to head over towards the site and stuff.
They head to middle and they're thinking because they got rid of the fast initial recon but
they wanted to re-clear it with the drone.
They're so adamant that they want to create mid pressure this round.
He's actually just like ruled as a...
...namely, you tell him.
Ooh, game is 2 now.
Damn, are they doing it?
Sounds like they're doing it.
The top of the spine.
Oh, it's incredible timing.
Can he hit the shot?
Yes, he can.
Good redemption for earlier for sure.
Super important round. 3 people, 1-9 loss bonus on the cards and then they have to use these
ult's.
Zenginon got a good understanding of the big round term.
Not that they've been the best with ult's recently.
the only angle I can really be taken there to try to prevent that defuse it's okay you got a whole
bunch of ults here is global e-sports you got a lot of options on how you want to play this round
and they want to play aggressive i also got a weak economy for jen jane oh my god so costly
that looks so good with uh x-ray off
I don't know what's going on, Batman just beating him into death.
It's a shot, whips on the omen, and it hits the operator.
Man, that's just one of those days.
That just sucks.
It does suck.
Yeah, I mean it's one of those.
I'm not sure he's a tilter though, I don't think he's a tilter.
He could be, right.
I don't think there's much luck involved often, but...
Yeah, Aussie, Aussie, Aussie, ow, ow, ow.
Yeah, they're just on top of each other.
GE have never needed Udo more in this round.
This is essentially worth two.
Okay.
Okay
Oh
That's some impact right there
That is some impact right there.
Listen, look over towards the side of Gen.G as well, two full loss bonus.
That's an eco as well, I say eco to me, pretty good low buy but...
on them, but shuttle lucky it was pretty sick and straight up just pre-fire, no timing.
Ah, that's a...
It's an impressive run.
across the back, I'm applying it to the top, not quite got three past them, and I got the
all on top. Oh man, look at them go. Look how much that one round changes everything
by the way. Absolutely destroys Gen Jean. It feels like that early momentum that seemed
that they had is very much being taken away from them. Oh, we're about to be one round
away from tying it up. That saturate comes in a bit late there, so Patton's able to find
one of the follow-up
a lot of times teams might play that
one and done for a yoru to just
literally be that, just to TP out
and they take their prize but
GE
sends a lot into it
just Fury, Patman
works an absolute treat
just with a stinger
it's a cut segment
probably just gonna die
both on these HP's
what is this dude
so there's no escape man
wait I missed this
I was hearing all those donations coming in
I think he's got it
very very nice
why did I mention it bro I've been imagining 5 years
and
police boards start to find that momentum in putting
this is
so well set up
smoke there as well
Nova pulse hits the player behind the box
so he's running out like oh god
what have I got myself into
but an eco for Gen G so
I'm looking
at the end of the world at all
why did you say it sometimes you just get a test
sometimes you get a stress test
months
little more check
just saying the word is crazy
money
would it be a 2-9 loss bonus?
Think it a plant they're probably false
Yeah, the
Trip a middle really
Most teams won't jump this unless it's like
Be honest ashore rounds
If you watch a demo and no one ever drops over towards here, I'm pretty sure you can go through this default all the time
It's mounting on hobby shoulders. Yeah, so this trip I didn't know how long it's gonna be up for and like how many runs
They're gonna use it in a row, but reinforcement. You're going to get is a gate crash available from autumn very very nice
Do you know this one for one with the one leaving so they can ask for a week now gonna be set up
Swing in Tommy. You'll find the first great shutdown
Pat man, don't do it. Yeah, it's over. Join in
Here's the plant going down and the luck on middle
off the top of the box asked the same time trying to go walk abouts on this flank
ring waiting hearing these rotations coming through
this is going to be used for the lockout lock game it's a very early under scary but he's
as bound one how they're going to be taken down zinx now flushed out of back site
TP forward from patman quickly dispatch and not hold his own as yurtan continues to push up
Yeah, and this guy's just gonna stick it and he's gonna tank that, uh, yeah man.
The, um, the Vito, or at least on defense, seems to always have good impact.
This probably helps that Udy's sick at aiming.
It breaks the brain, yeah, it's still just, still just not enough reps as well.
It messes up, it messes up so much of your stuff.
They got the pond down so Genji could go for a force if they wanted to.
big ults into it. Couldn't get anything out of it.
Coaches.
Can the Vita disable the astrocyte? He can sit in the middle of it with the ult, and
it won't affect it, but his intercept doesn't do anything for it.
Want to continue this momentum in solo? He's hoping that he can give some of these fans
of Gen G a win, keep their Santiago Hopes alive, of course.
Whoever loses here is they're done
A man just comes into the channel first message Patman nothing else
It has been just you know tooth and nail fighting all the teams not one
be eliminated early
Depends the brakes as autumn
Before checking towards window no one playing up towards that position
VIP wavy
Gate crash over a connector
Can you see the gun barrel?
I'm coming through almost too risky for autumn
Oh Jesus
Just went down into the into the this you know, they heard the call the void. It's been reading Nietzsche
And our battery I guess crystals not gonna be spotting out too much
Again hobby all alone at a site, but this time they don't have the even hidden with the old to rethink one
I'm going to throw an ult at it to try to buy a little bit of time, so back to site.
They're a tower to try to peel back some of the pressure, jump out while he's done.
It is damage suffered by a safe down to 45, Sam taking lock, you're so very low, and this
is allowing for global e-sports to get everybody in position and try to go for a flood retake.
to try to flush them off of this one is they're gonna try to run him down
forward
we'll be scary though scary scary rounds i'm in gen g with the low by coming out
on top yeah we just said the retake might be harder by any of the oats on this
the interceptor stopped down like a retake either right under their noses
right it was like an hb yeah that's true
The ult to heal? Did it make a difference?
I mean, I don't...
Not in this game, Spurs.
Confident boost? That's true.
Get that confidence.
I have that one bullet train totally makes sense to me especially with how close the score lines are
Zinks one away from a
Divide
There's my sense of the jewelist this is becoming a catastrophe for Gen G
One fight back across the opposite side of the map the A site open for the taking but the spike still down on the floor
Confident? I mean the confidence of the ult still got in the opposite side.
Got some confidence on every team and that's two lovely shots on top of this though.
It's a full buy around, he's just walked to them and out, aimed everyone.
for it but this one's just a timing play right as that sova utils getting
released ashes and in a position to back them up so you don't get very nice
chance that is crispy yeah you don't can isolate those first two fights those
for the wide swing even now into a lot of just individual big plays closing
A beautiful flash there from Autumn to set himself up.
It's a couple different players and you can make a real meal Gen G there.
But this round there's a key difference here for global eSports.
Get to it maybe after Ashes.
We got to go film it!
Don't try to do something. At least get one closer to the Cosmic Divide.
Yeah, that's not the death get some old next round.
peel back and see what he can do pretty decent on the cash or yeah as you can say
when to do that to start hunting be careful with it
I'm gonna give too much away that's cool for next round
the bow fairly low on HP alongside Patman
weapon scooped up here for ash just tuck away and hold on to it sometimes it's
is going to be the call shots out we'll just ultimately cover the spandal and
carry it forward into the next round so it spiggles with a tier one pressure just
three months thank you so much thank you thank me yeah so a little bit of a
macro change for me I don't see them making any changes I would like them to
just embrace the demo on chamber passing me but I think they can make a
work with him on smokes I don't think the ceiling will be as high personally as well
but we'll just take it a little longer to actually get good you got a new job
Why is the first comment I read after that what's a jump
versions paths that open inside the crystal that tiny little angle you
want to find a headshot on the zinx and things are quickly falling apart for
gen g texture fighting back for one two v1 v4 very nice
global east seven seven to five here in the opening half from this defender side
looking at damn cleanings remember the gen g this is a nice defense comp though
for Gen.G.
You ready for rounds in a row to start this half?
Since then.
Well, I'll fix him a problem.
Yeah, that makes...
Very heavily in favor of global e-sports to say the least.
It's a lovely, uh...
Up the way they approach this round,
they can prove their pro, they get the early read,
and they're able to spread the map,
come from all the different angles,
just make it a nightmare for Gen.G
to try to defend this post-plan.
Oh.
Hello, Fred.
Time a little bit jump scare there, but I have time now coming through I have to talk about
Two to one
G able to find their first pistol at the start of this map. You can find it again now for this second half
Maybe this neck and neck and back for a long wins
As they're back and forth. It's been it's been straight. It's back and forth streets. Yes, maybe that'll continue
That's a hard one.
Um, lows maybe?
I think lows has been really impressive.
From there.
Low rock?
I think I need too much about the rock.
So, I wasn't like...
I wasn't as much shock-valued, I guess.
Timotino.
Ooh, Timotino's a good shout.
Sinks, Sinks is getting out there.
So, how much are they going to have that cleaned up?
You know, same comp, same ideas, are they going to be able to find a little bit more
value here?
Try to close this out in two, are we going to be getting haven?
That's a big question.
This is, this is in fact a green light week for them.
Once recorded.
Oh, that's true.
I didn't even take that into account when I made my prep today.
I should have.
I did and I said, I have well patterns.
Probably, you know, found a break at some point.
Man, this is so deep here, but already underneath.
They're going to expect that extra layer.
I think they saw Karan, but they're still not looking to try to play into that angle either,
so it's just going to be a full rewrap from Global across the side.
Yeah, but there's enough pressure over towards middle.
They used the trip down towards mid to see if they re-clear.
Well, I'm going to Sheriff for Lockia.
They know for sure sites are weak.
Interceptor parts
Yeah, I need one chef
Yeah, no trip behind
the G E trying to get info with numbers
It's still no plan on this one. Tap of the plant fall past and swing back the site. The problem is now they're in the box
They could turn the box. They got no space
Sheriff's man straight into the cosmic form his car on
Find the one
Three more to go
I said I was trying this.
Yeah, it is 3-1, you're right.
Yeah, I mean at least I understand that they have to take some of the spawn.
cost them a bit but actually just double down on a good reaction find the perfect moment to
strike right as the astros trying to lay down like the idea of the top of the spike full
person swing at the back as well it's really nice two two on the pistols nah eco eco don't
and we graze it, depending on who's on the pistol.
Is GE scavin' good?
We still didn't play Haven against Zetcher, and I don't think it was their actual comp.
conventional? Yeah, they pretty much always have.
He likes a off-matter comp.
We potentially have a lot of ability to stall this up a little bit.
We're taking interceptor, flocking.
Yeah, how much of a guy's gonna hit this, but the second wave.
The second wave is triple TP.
The last.
Winning up the fight versus Lockia.
Todd's still fighting, but we'll be able to find some damage.
Miner that on the Patman before getting taken down.
And there is their sinks of the push able to find the kill
It's been to a player advantage, but Genji can't afford any more losses
Right of the road
Three gen armor working its magic here for hobby
Get him as healthy as can be and now there's lashes left to drop out of this one to their demise and all like
Oh no.
That's devastating, man.
I felt like they had just not enough bullets.
Something that was pretty cool here, though.
From GE, like, second wave.
The first wave was them going in.
Right, they got completely stomped.
Especially with the veto, you tell.
Then veto, you tell, runs out, second wave.
TPs double TP.
Or kind of triple TP into the smokes.
I think the Ormone may have been TP.
They are even close to being able to help out
He's just trying to do it. He can why is no one picking deadlock? It's just lucky
I just not a good agent at the moment laps a little too quickly
So you're hoping that with all that you till at the front of the site from the veto that you're gonna be able to slow that up a
Little bit more, but no fear from global eSports there
Two Buckeys
Karnam did push pretty far forward though, sitting in a smoke.
Benji.
For a player to maybe try to get there without checking you.
Even though they win it, they go for the eco.
So, in these kind of rounds, it's not like 100% what is the right choice on this, for sure.
Some people are believers that you should be eco-ing, some people are believers that you should just force buy anyway,
especially as you would like make them eco if like this can definitely backfire
if they do no damage here then it's completely backfire
the a spotting nothing the walk down from zinx right into the sight lens of
your time what makes me so better than deadlock
really a comparison
smoke's blooming on the site did it with the different things
just kidding outdone by autumn it's riding on top of him in that
can't even pull the trigger on that shotgun crazy
Yeah, I'm not, I think this is gonna backfire.
It's not really like, they didn't do much damage.
Trying to play off of each other, but still gonna be minor damage found in the tank.
Man, autumn.
Watching from the opposite side of this exit.
Should just be the clean up coming through, his ash tagged low.
It's a concuss.
It's likely just gonna get spammed down.
He throws back around the corner, once again trying to peek all the time.
Yeah, and the problem with this is as well, people are, oh, not a good example.
People are very good at like making sure they can min-max and get these Alts online as well so everyone that needs the Alts can go hunt
So it was gonna be a good example of Alts and things to go
Did this backfire the Genji
Five people surviving one armoury by three Alts now online and they can tank a loss
Flanks or lurks from that position to
This kind of really breaks things open in this round and then lock is just all alone
Was hoping to maybe
This
Dude, it's it's viable on a piece by piece the round falls apart everything, but
Maybe pal solo sentee I wouldn't do back up would say that's to you flash in a
We've seen people do it, just because you can fight, eh?
I would say there's a rule on the maps where you need to kill Joy or Syphon normally, like double Info normally, the Sage won't kill it.
Take a little bit of space here
Pretty good timing on this they should know about this trip though they do it all the time so
He does actually go for this
He's I mean he's gonna get success from this
Yeah, they just go to delay on site a little bit
So the textures should probably try get out of there no TP available. He's stuck
crystal, mid ulti, auto, last one standing, gets the second, and becomes a flank.
I'm uncertain if it was Zinx by himself, losing track, if the players are at swap of the weapon.
Lotus Vito, yeah honestly, Vito's best map might be Lotus, just purely because A fight,
trips are a little annoying but again we seem to make a one. People used to play
chamber so one trip fairies same thing.
Haha so lucky. Yeah dude that's devastating peek in the corner and see
in the spike go up like that.
Yeah, this looked a little like demo.
Demo watch power.
They watched their overgames, they looked to where the trip was.
Looked to where the trip was over towards here. They know there's a sober ult
So most likely gonna see a sober in whatever site they hit at the back
So they go in the path and then they can just go to whichever
actively
Saturate over towards main to try to slow but
Straight flash again
Big 1v2 man.
This is Adonashile, now finds himself in a 1v2 but we have seen this already in this series, Crystal.
So feared in the clutch.
The jiggle out, eats a bit of damage.
On the reposition now, Lockia on the flag.
This fight's still not yet in hand.
Boy, it's the first shock.
Lockia's got it covered from behind, Gen G.
2 in a row that they had to do after doing the save round
Bosses G, Danton Eco, killed them, come by
Yeah, he's got some nice flashes
is likely yours just felt like it kind of looks like they're gonna put an
astral into this
from from GE
something now getting popped Karam using the nebulas getting himself
situated up over the side I still double TP man
pushing for you on top of ash damage gonna be suffered in autumn
able to find texture now we're cut out for him finds his second six gets
Another
Collecting the weapon just back peddling out with that and the spike hunter steering not gonna be finding a tag
It's it out now that's that Phantom in hand
Marshall for you to Tom
Be a headshot for the instant kill
That barrel however spotted
Oh my god.
Nice shots.
Lovely round from them.
Dude, Patman's Parfing is so nice.
Smoke up towards here, TP's on here, and then smoke at the back as well.
It's looking like Split B basically.
Hopefully it's on the replay here.
Ah, they missed the...
They missed the play.
quick! Still finds a couple on site! This is exactly what the doctor ordered. He's on!
He's been on this entire session. Yep.
Are you ready?
You're still ready?
They're low by, they're low by, just fast. I'm gonna check to be main first, yes.
They're up in position.
They're flashed out.
Can you pick up my top?
One more, one more, one more!
Immediately, Mobile Esports spotted themselves advantages in the round as they looked to take this up the map point.
Their advantage in hand locked it just with a stinger as they're spammed out from behind the box,
forced into the open, and forced at six feet under.
so cock is it up this is now car on having to do it all cross cut over the
back side the base for the timing of the recon that's nice they continue to push
lock you yields off some of that pressure through the wall no matter what
the two in the TV fall here is incredible they nearly line up
Oh, that was such a nice try.
Uh, Gen.G, no money on this one.
Gonna...
Gonna be pretty off the line.
They're just spamming. Spamming to be safe.
bring into action there were just more guns bearing down on that position
it's a good guess by global e-sports global e-sports is time out as well
so why are why are timeouts like this today I think it's just uh why is he
done this did he not watch try to just get around win get the map over with what
what what happened recently in the coaching meta that this is now how we
time out. A lack of trust. Losing. It is the lower bracket. Getting to this point and then choking.
I think is what's kind of causing it here. I mean, I don't hate this one. Maybe they just
have a set play that they want to call. I mean, that could just be it. Why not? It's also going to
to be about maybe he seems something that they like to do with the low binds
maybe where they like to put judges maybe now the judge is like thereby isn't
great man maybe try to put player up towards the vents could be something
about this as well where they like to lean could also just be reminding them
guys it's gonna be so easy bro you have an actual combo if you can take a main
get this is the servo
yeah here we go it's gonna get the servo in time to combo
guys?
oh no!
it was meant to be so easy
I'm not like this
I'm in the replay with others
So overall, I think he's too close that it's just insanely easy to dodge.
They did rush it a little bit. They're trying to make sure that the Yorra ult clears here so they don't have to use any utility.
But if you were going to use that as your combo anyway, then you should be chilling out and using the drone.
Like, you don't... Like, it's cold and you can check the front of this, but if that's the combo that wins you,
you should be take over towards here, get the drone, go far back somewhere in this square, then ult the site.
Then it's a lot harder to dodge.
Yeah, kinda rushed it a little bit.
Maybe get to see on the POV. It looks so easy to dodge here.
Delayed for so long.
You have to hit the one button, just to cut away the worst part of the game.
That was the last bit, I really missed the beginning of it as well.
So you missed the first two.
I did too!
I don't know what happened there.
Yeah, that was way too rushed, man.
It was way too rushed, they tried to finish it so fast.
They missed everything. It was up to you, no Yuto.
Gen G kind of apt to because of the bunny guardian in there for heaven. Yeah, no smoke heaven
Gen G could win this
Like a real go of it. Yeah
Should be able to get at least one away come in Gen G for stacking over towards be it's been nonstop sight
It's on being heard the drone now coming through like here the guillotine away
I think he tried to... you know the smoke here, I think he tried to go off the map and TP into the smoke.
You can have the rest of the team make some noise around backside form
Voodoo gets the kill, he gets his own. Textures are just being around truly.
He finds the burst, gets the transfer onto the second. This is El-Habib with the judgement sound.
Oh man, let's do the countdown bro, let's do the countdown cause G.E. has got lots more money.
Dude show me the Patman B.O.V. He's missed his TP into the smoke.
a painful one no other way to put it maybe he saw on the mini-map that the guy was
in a smoke or something that's where the comms came from because he because he
was spamming from here
here's some of the weapons should know that it's gonna be the sheriff's
shots as they are just carrying up the shreds here in mid crystal however
You're the fine three footage be this man with a sheriff
He is on for the ace
Gets his all the plan will give him a hunter's fury and ask you still a ways away
Pays close because he's most likely to be playing off site. Oh, man
That's such a nice try man such a nice try merely
I wasn't ready for him that close as always still WPing.
How long is he going to break the fuses there?
Oh he's actually just letting him just level up.
do in this next one it's a free time out here yeah chat amongst yourselves get the fuse and
I think a bit to let global e-sports stew on that one I think it is for sure salt into
the wound perhaps man crystal you can never count them out can they ever really bet against
I gotta show me these shunts.
Just spamming it.
Looked like an Overwatch crap.
My last go there.
look at the holes as well it's gonna get chaotic
I mean Gen G must be like guys they are going B
if not had success here if had success here
it's too obvious surely
dude a fake on B into the A is a legit
strat for this because you would imagine
I don't think the one person drone is enough though. I will say that but
The idea and self should work really heavy
They made a plan before you made a plan 50 seconds, you know when they're grouping up
He gets in far
They kind of popped all the oats though they try to enable they try to pop all the oats to enable the servo and they didn't get anything for it
50 seconds
Dude the lack of middle is
Yeah, he's looking for a dimension for falling off the map 15 seconds
Melting car a dead texture gone. Ash has fallen and just like that
It's looking like a close but no cigars scenario. It's like yeah
seeing Batman
Maybe it was just a sense
But his senses may have just betrayed him
Very nice
Very game for them okay, we're going last five haven
They made cross sweat on that, trying to see him walking away, shaking his head, he's
still shaking his head.
And there's a...
So in theory there's a fake board out there, I guess.
With their Haven, there's no way they play the DE play that Haven comp again.
You wouldn't imagine they play a different comp, but...
With what they play, they probably play the V-Solder.
As far as he was going to be able to come out on top, I surely do not know.
What was the comp that they played?
Find out.
Is it the chamber one or?
Is it played against Zestor, right?
He had something like...
Is it an old school comp?
Yeah, it was.
I mean, they played this.
Last time against Zestor, they played Astro Jet.
This guy is so vachimba.
I think this is false info.
I think they play their real comp now.
Cross loves the double comp.
going into overtime, and now we have this score for Abyss, 13-11 in favour of GE this time,
and we're going to be three.
Okay, Jack, back in a little bit.
I thought Genji had that on that last round, couldn't believe Global Esports got that one
across the line.
They avoided the overtime, and now they've taken it all the way to my free.
Genji gotta be kicking themselves right now.
Absolutely insane series for both of these teams.
This is exactly what we wanted.
So close, so back and forth.
They're all ends here on Haven.
It's a pretty annoying round to end if you're thinking right now because right now I think
they're walking off the stage and you're talking, wait, wait, someone said they were going A
and then we went over towards A but they were going B and there was no time left to rupe,
you know?
I think that's happening right now so if you're solo you need to be calming everyone
down and make sure okay let's forget about all of that because you can't be going frantic
into Haven even though G do you have something interesting if they're gonna play that same
I'm not a I'm not a believer right now. I don't think they'll be running that again.
We gotta wait and see. We'll bring that up later. That's something to discuss all together.
But before that, of course, looking back at this map, we saw Karen performing very, very well on the beat-o.
And my mayor, Javi, showing up here on the Astra.
But there were a lot of moments up from each individual player.
So like that 4k from Crystal, which he almost won. Oh, you almost had it. Yeah.
Oh my gosh, so you could really see how much each of these players are really coming online and really being pushed in the series
Yeah, I mean having loves this map. You can just tell the way he plays
He's so comfortable here really not surprised to see him have a massive performance
Karen on either side showing the uter talus and the only guy I hear who complained me so really putting in his own work there
So very very impressive. I love how back and forth this series
I really feel like all ten players in the server have the capability to just take over
over, turn the game on its head and flip it for their side, it's going to be a crazy crazy
map 3 realistically, but I think even in this map there was some kind of wild moment, there's
so much really. So wild, so wild, I actually like you know it's those moments that stand out to me
in those maps and we were like oh okay this round is over and then wait, hold on, somebody turns
it around and on the side of GE there are so many rounds like that but I think this also goes to
show how this team is maturing as as the tournament goes on. Yeah definitely I think if there's a
It's a team that's supposed to be comfortable to play against this GenG combo.
It has to be GE, GE has been playing this and they've been playing to their strength as well.
GE understand that sometimes they can be on the side and UDT was that guy to play on the side
and then other times it was the retake, right? How we see here.
They really understood there's time so they have to get off the side, respect that double duelist going in
and then we just play to our win condition and we play to the retake.
Yeah, this is GE on attack. It's hard for them to attack with their composition
when you see Pat do the double TP, gets you off the site.
It's the stingers that get the job done.
On the attacker side, with this composition,
you kinda have to steal those rounds.
They stole this round, they stole that last round.
Like, that's what you need.
You need players who can make those moments happen,
and they had that come alive here, one of this.
Yeah, and not to mention that there are also some moments
that, you know, you could tell that the players
were pretty frazzled, because that last round,
at least Pat made up for that missed TP that he had, right?
But it definitely shows the nerves that are in play here, because those are mistakes that do come out.
And those are the little holes that Genji can actually poke, but Genji also have those tiny little mistakes that they're making too.
Yeah, I mean, from up where we are on the balcony, we can hear both pairs of these coaches.
They are shouting so loud, it's crazy.
We hear one from that corner and then the other corner, we actually do hear them.
It does get really loud in here, we have the players on stage as well.
But of course with amazing performances despite what you thought. I mean like he's such a good player
We have so many highlights from him over here
Why this kind of energy exists in this series? I mean he's the guy for me so far
I think he's really stepping up the most on this global e-sports roster
You see it's these individual rounds where he's really he's getting the one he's gonna be I could even say it
He is the one getting the win across the line. He's by far doing the most
individually, even if he isn't at the top of that score.
Yeah, he had so many very important frags for the team and as I mentioned earlier, I think he's been doing so well,
it doesn't matter which map he's playing the Vito on, he's really unpredictable in terms of when he's on the side,
when they're playing offside and it makes it really hard for Genji and for other teams to kind of figure out
where's this Vito playing, what they're playing for retake, is he playing onside because he's really good at the moment
They're taking care of the Oru. The Oru tries to TP in, but then his interceptor takes the flash, or some of the Utils just missing, the Recon may be missing because of the interceptor, and Utitans, right? They're waiting for Zings, they're waiting for Texture, right?
So killing one of those entries is so huge, and sometimes you can get out, or he just gets as many as he can.
Like it's so hard to play into this reader, because you script up these executes, everything's planned so that all areas are covered, then all of a sudden this interceptor is sniping out key pieces of Util,
and it creates gaps, and I think Yuditan is understanding that so well.
Look at the heads on right now.
Oh my goodness.
I didn't even see that when you were on kill.
Oh! That's good.
Wow!
That is disgusting.
Oh, he's definitely showing the Korean team say this is what you missed out on.
Yeah, oh yeah.
You could have had me as Vito on your team, but he is definitely leading the way with
global esports.
Now, moving on to our final map of the night.
It is going to be Haven.
We have a lot of fushing marks here for the side of GE.
I mean, I think the composition is obviously a mess.
He's obviously about to stand up and give a sermon here.
But, Genji, they're going back to Jettiori, which I think suits them incredibly well.
But obviously, G.E., last time we saw them play this, it was a Sky Sova composition.
It was kind of incredibly off-meta, and it felt like...
There's no other way to describe it, then. It doesn't feel like the best fit for them.
Um...
Yeah, Sky Sova chamber, and with the jet I just don't see the stopping power, and they had a hard time.
Hard time stopping Zeta unfortunately. I really didn't enjoy watching that one just because I can't see myself ever playing that comp.
Convincing myself that we can win with that comp.
Even when we saw it, they had chamber, right? As the sentinel. And that's good in some ways you have that operator potential, but you lose the ability to kind of hard hold onto these sites like you do with the more traditional sentinel.
You do have double drone though, which is kind of nice for your defense side in terms of information
So if the attack is glad this is a close game
I prefer when hopes and dreams are on the line of the line
You want to see people get ultimately crashed
If you default onto the A side and you don't leave anyone inserted a sky dog or
Sova drone could re clear that area really fast, right? But the issue is what I have
Okay, so you can re clear the area with one of your drones either the sky sky dog or the sova drone, right?
For you to do a lot of times I do a 3-3 split at the moment or you have a yoru that can
The only days I can go gym is Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday at the moment as well.
Sometimes he can TP and get off the line and move faster, but the jet is a little bit harder for him to kind of do that fast rotate so sometimes you're going to have to end up using a drone to get your up onto the line which is another way to use it right you can fast,
We clear information and then make sure that the jet can get through a smoke or something like sky flat
So there's way to play the defense side the issue I have
If the other team is hitting it down seed or hitting it straight at a how are you stopping anything?
If your chambers not fracking or if your jets not getting fracked with the operator
I think you have an issue. I mean I think it put so much pressure on the initiators to find this perfect information
Otherwise, you just can't move
I said
I mean it's kind of similar to what they did. It's just a chain of veto death.
It's a weird comp man. It's not good on defense, which is weird because you've got a veto.
He hasn't proactive
over to your casters, Payperson and Akilius.
So now all down to this, the best of one.
I mean, sure. They have to gamble a little bit.
Square off against DRX, which one?
You sat back at home watching the rest of the action here.
All right, let's see it.
GE, GE start an attack.
It should be the better, it should be the better side of this comp.
It's a weird pump. It can work on the fence if you're super proactive.
It's been shown in EMEA to be pretty good on the fence if you're smart.
Dude, everyone's going for the Sheriff.
The Sheriff's wallbangs. They're lucky, especially.
While they try to repeat the same pistol they did before.
Speaking of pistols, 3-1 at the moment.
over lock it with the shop it's gonna be autumn instead pushing forward over that
T-Connector get king zinx plays malphite skyflash and autumn's you will find a second the frenzy
bringing true here for it damage dealt by ash but there's the deals from
pat men team player zuda will fall and karn can't find luck with that
he got too excited he's here in the pistol started running and it's so look at him
We need the one to get away from him.
One more. I don't want him to be trying to pass 80 more in texture.
This is such a pivotal pistol.
Getting this attacker side, getting the ball rolling here.
It's going to be so important for global eSports.
This is definitely going to be the side of the map that both teams really want to do their damage on.
This is very crucial and Autumn plays it so so well with that frenzy.
over to pat see if they can just give him this ace there's ever a time for Mr.
4k to appear would be now that's gonna be a second round man good start you can
get that Jett or early for the bonus it's a nice it's a nice of all you can
obviously snowball in terms of winning the round but also means you don't have to
buy a gun so you can get good also all of the better one
this one's been there for today and feels like right now the Korean teams overall
are just quietly sucking pistols outside of Nongshin. Yeah, kind of weird how that works sometimes.
Yeah, and I'm frenzy. A lot of people will tell you they feel like pistols can be a little coin-flippy.
I've never really bought into that. I think there's something to it and great flash set up too from
Patman for the first one. We don't see teams do a CG for that enough. On top of this though,
let's see if it gets to Orb. Okay, Crystal, trying to make sure they give it a servo as
that is possible. On top of that as well, they will say that Gen.G managed to get their
rope as well, so both going for slow roads.
Upgrade of a Goss.
Try to be calm with it.
So realistically I'm just letting autumn go for it. It's a marshal you don't want it anyway
A death just means that you get the ult. In the bonus round you can just have an ult
sides but should be his sky is still meta it's not met there at the moment but
there's definitely a lot of teams that are going for it if they don't play
your
try to go for the punish just the Marshall you don't mind
come on we'll get out there smoke baited him wait my kid towards garage I'll be
able to clear that my peeking mouth so not quite gonna have the blades online
but still plenty of cash ready to go here for autumn this is a extremely
important round right now for Gen G if they can prevent the bonus prevent the
snowball maybe they could put up a pretty respectable defender side here it's
It's really tough, Desk was talking about with this double initiator comp with all that ability to gather information to scale into sites.
Rather tricky.
Laki is going for his favorite spam.
You're hitting some crazy good shots, so...
Let's just have the lineup far.
I think he wants to watch the right, pushing floor.
As well.
I'm going to get caught up and lose a player early.
Oh, a little greedy, to be honest.
He's spamming through what he thinks is a one-way, but then he just has a Guardian,
so he spams him back with the heavy pan.
It's only a heavy pen spam.
Oh, nice shot, mate.
He's actually dashing at them.
It's like 20-21 yumpy first on jet trying to headbutt.
Pistol into a bonus. They're getting good at it.
The shock, yeah, the shock.
To the flash.
The fake flash.
No, I think they need to get a good amount on the attack.
Because again, I don't... Personally, I don't think this is a good comp on defense.
i'm about it now after watching uh... or q abused the heck out of it
back to some sheriffs lock you with a stinger so
wallbang shenanigans not really gonna be in play there
did i say for this i said g but i wasn't like
i wasn't confident in that
it's a great round to try to show some a presence
as globally sports start establishing that conditioning
he got a hit
off-down three but here comes the healing
we're getting a lot of uh... a lot of heals off at the moment
i feel like he should get build diff points for people for that
i'm saying that because he's on my team
but it's so valuable I mean in pistol rounds you know you talk about agents
like sky and chamber and what they can give you there
that's just the anti-eco too
very very valuable protects your body from
they felt like a pretty easy call right? resistance here, resistance here
get over towards the C
who should be farming kills?
Crystal
Okay, didn't let him plant, he's watching the back
No chance, yeah, maybe G could have organized this a little better to increase the chances of snowballing
So what would help a lot for this?
are going to continue to tick down so solo not off time out.
Yeah.
This is another issue here in this Gen G composition
is that the seaside is very, very weak.
It was an adaptation that Tata ended up making against Gen G.
It was a little late maybe, but they ended up making it
and still ended up getting a lot of rounds out of the pool.
He's nearly gone his all.
This is the hard part about this Gen G coming up.
Here we go again.
These are early advantages.
Oh, it's duty actually.
He popped all of them there to 51.
He's still trying to spam this guy.
The same time, Zinx trying to get the wraparound approach will get held back by that chokehold.
Oh, swing out!
Oh, he's sleeping.
The challenge is on that op-line.
Comes away with the kill.
Well, they know because of the position of Zinx.
I can just hold the line here.
Yeah, I mean Tripp goes off behind so he takes the 1v1.
They have so much money that he should just try and do a little bit of damage.
I know he's low HP but even taking an armor is kind of off in my opinion though.
has the head shot.
Gen G, find their first round win.
Yeah, and this time, you know, it's
a little bit of an attempt by Global Esports
to disrespect the Odin's fam.
His current full 70 at the moment?
Yeah, pretty much.
Shut down, site for trip there, catch autumn off guard.
That basically spells doom in the round.
Again, it's all about those early advantages for Gen G.
If they can create those, it's that much harder.
We'll believe sports I've had this for a while
Executes to get the things to go the way they want listen in
Oh
Get out far on
push up pretty aggressively as Yuditan get challenge in the garage
swing through and line the headshot of the enemy
then hit the previous round
he's on the floor and now seasight completely open
the common listening yeah it's cool they don't do it for like too long as well so
and it's never like pre-barrier it's pretty much just fast like 10 seconds
This is awesome. Take fake info that they might be going C, clear the trip.
Paranoia, denying vision. Texture about to go on a peek.
We'll have Autumn out in the open by himself. But now the counter swing back
crossed through Sewers. Texture...
Texture dropped to site though.
Has the backup from the Odin. Swing in, one found, dives immediately pop.
On a crystal, drops down. Into the cloud versus Ash will fall.
Jumps the corner the night going wide tries to get the up back
Crystal finds luck yet and suddenly this round is out of hand for Gen. G
The 1v2 finds the first
You know time on the other side as it very very nice, bro
3k for the veto and five rounds
Oh, that's that's gonna not sit well with Gen. G
They read this round pretty darn well most things considered
That little counterplay from you don't on there was a flash out through those garage doors
And he just presses advantage to see to get caught by a great flash from Patman by the way
Stalls texture out with that blade storm gives them time to get onto the site get their feet planted
He gets a kill to food
That's a good turn out dude. I wonder um, it's a shame Gen.G. I'm gonna go much further in this in this
20 if they do is this I really want to see someone anti
Lackier he stands actually system the same spot every single time on this old and the spams
Like I can't wait for someone to go on the server. Just work out the spam and just open
He's crouched every single time. It would be the easiest
I didn't do it that much last time
Obviously, he couldn't have done it
It's a GE timeout bro. What's going on recently?
I've seen 7-1. I've seen 12-4. Wait, was it 12-4? Is it 12-8? 12-8?
Dude, every single time I think for global
This is actually not a bad timeout because I saw some things
I didn't like some decision-making in the macro game that I wasn't really thrilled with
I mean, in terms of the actual impact of this round, it's a big important round.
Ah, dude, it's an easy call, though.
If you're trying to be too fair, you know when Pacific used to do that thing where it's like,
coach impact after timeouts.
Bruh, if you were trying to get your coach win rate up after a timeout, I'm calling a timeout here as well.
Look at that.
Or Alts, how are you meant to lose this round?
Please use them so we don't we don't tilt sliggy
Never tilt where's this come from
Yeah, I mean it's just way too many else, but it's also just a good reminder
I think the timeout is good. It now falls him down to an ether
Yeah, it's a round that's worth two. He doesn't want to mess it up. Even though he's like, I mean, if he had an experienced IGL, he would back him.
back and make genji prove that they can defend this site
it's just so hard to hold it with this comp
yeah it's tough
just getting the crap kicked out of him
feels like more and more genji
probably will summon like you
he had the cold and he was like I'm having none of that
That's a misclick, is it not?
I mean, the horse is an evolution, and he's just gonna follow up, so...
It's an impressive alt.
Like, it's an impressive alt for a misclick.
I'm impressed with what you did, but... oh, it's a shocker.
This position, TP is in the back, one and done.
There's a lot of guns that get picked up here as well, oh this is a big swing round.
One, two, make them get the Stinger, three, four.
money's incredible now all from that car and water around here
back into this map properly for sure but this is
huge for Gen G not just because of the thrush cam here
because you're able to defend the seaside and car on and out
that's okay if you want to dash out and go indirect
little ambitious car on make some pay
having that early warning system of zinx yes he dies he doesn't get the one
done but gives you that little extra time
operation to be ready for the hit
It gave them the belief. That's the thing though.
Chat, you misclick your Sova ult and tell no one to Sova ult and you just go
guy we're winning this round. That belief just spreads.
Crazy rounds. Without that they lose that round.
but they need to have some packed to background winds especially now that they have the old economy where it is
Yep, anti-jet trips there
Stop the dash and it's tracks
It's all calculated pros don't make mistakes months. We know this nice little setup
We're gonna a little bit info on the sky, but that's important info
That's generally gonna be where
Udaton quickly cross cuts back out in the mid
The news is their money should be okay one person has to take their head
about be trip up front zinks tucked in in the back weakish just got a shirt
everybody else is okay he's gone yeah
you're the time it's just been so damn crisp jump spot already damage gonna be
suffered you know what to do so we're still getting another puzzling round is
The little theft is going to be invested.
Grab Will to try to delay.
Lobbitt on the shock darts.
As the smoke will fall.
Push forward.
Lobby able to apply Karan.
Look for a little bit more. Multi-face out into mid.
It's all now down to Crystal.
The fuse coming.
Try to get the drop out of the window.
Go over it, but Lockia with three.
Yeah, I gotta see the Lockia.
I gotta see the Lockia double.
Did the distraction of dying on the top.
on the top was it just pure time what was going on there just I think he just pushed the wall
and he just sent it for me I think so I just I'm a little curious about the thought process
here for global e-sports behind this cosmic divide trying to push through like that you know
doesn't find oh I saw the lineup yeah one hell of a timing I mean if nothing else Locky has
been known to make bold plays since the beginning of his career we all remember that first master's
the lock your moment on a cent these top dragon is one way from a hunter's fury
this could be a difference maker could get Genji to four which would be really
important for them
you're in the garage paranoia half already now
going back a little bit of body blocking but Ash is a bit off there
lock your with that hunter's fury is able to find a one and take the hit point
damage is so good, that's a big miss though
Oh
Individuals are stepping up steady's it for three if they get five it might be enough man
Genji it all depends on how he plays his comp on defense, but it should have falls
Difference Baker again car on
Nice little fine for auto. Listen mate a bit of noise there jumping out
and I was putting a time on the clock here I was kind of hoping global e-sports might make a go towards long a
Trying to go for the quick pivot trying to get Jenji's last round the fast day
Try and make it look like a fast day, but they walk over towards B
He's just messing around.
This is...
Ah, it's unlucky, man.
Imagine they won that close.
And the idea is pretty good.
The idea is pretty good.
A fake, you smoke here, you flash through it with the TP.
I just don't think they were expecting him to be this close.
Normally the A fake works better in practice, I guess, if you didn't get into the pop.
Especially a nice idea.
They might need a pistol.
Global?
At the moment, I saw giants had a really good defence half of this comp.
We're like a similar comp, I guess.
I don't really know.
had a vital yes I mean this come from G has more info on thrifty back on breeze
from Gen G
they're gonna be able to find another one might just be curtains for this map
before Gen G kickoff asking please win this victory to come in definitely
giving themselves a shot I think anyone who wins today can beat PaperX in a
much? You kind of want to play Payprex at the moment. They're not looking great. It's
easy to recover, they could look great, but at the moment it's not.
Oh, they do their pistol back to them! They did their pistol back to them and actually
got a kill? That's so sick. Oh my god, that's mental warfare.
Nothing.
Genji thinking, oh, don't ever do this.
Hang on their faces.
Lock you up, still able to find one, hobby.
Take it down a back flat, Patman.
Swinging around the site as Utaton is able to find two.
He got a double on the planter through the smoke.
And he's not even aiming at him.
He's aiming for the close guy.
Now, once again, up by three.
Who doesn't do no wrong?
Double dink.
Look at this one.
What the...
I
Five and one ends five and one on pistols
The problem as well, it's like one of the worst to go down because that was their info
of towards C so the longer they're like quiet and don't show, the more chance they could
be anywhere which means they have to go proactive like this free middle.
Damn bro, this gun is so, it's so sick against Niko's.
in this follow-up but still so damn clean okay well that's a cleanup there's not
much going to be lost here Ultimus has the best starts into these halfs
digits somebody peeked out of that smoke and gave it away for Gen G so little too
early. The rest of the team is not flooding fast enough. What is that? One by one.
I mean the gun shoots so fast it's hard to. Very scary. The bonus attempt here for global
esports. It was automatic very quickly storming forward.
Hey bonus rounds, they take aggro. I mean this is nice though, smoke, flash. We're
instead of using our dash to catch the timings off, trying to flash the recon as well, try
to get some scans. This is cool as well, early info over towards C so they don't have to
worry about it yet. So something that Giants did, well, can we talk for a bit? Yeah, something
that Giants did when they played a similar comp that you have on the fence, is they would
leave a site, they would leave a site like they do on B here and just have the interceptor,
They think they're coming in they just pop the smoke pop the interceptor, but they got no one behind
No one's walking through into a site. See it's essentially just like ten seconds of delay eight seconds of delay whatever it is
Which means that you can stack the other sites
And it's looking like you using the same theory
Yeah, pop of the interceptor
Just know that it's gonna delay long enough
They get info that they're over towards mid and then they're in theory and ready to stop over towards b. It's nice theory
20 seconds gonna hit over towards a though
10 seconds three on site
Swing around the box. He's finding one finding to the
Save them one away from the so for all
That is not a convincing round taking their time
map a little bit car and eventually able to find that little bit of extra space you
Shocked the problem is it's like floating in the air man. It's hot. It's hot to know exactly
this kill count's been a really rough go of it for him on this Europe considering how things were
all the way back on breeze so yeah let's talk about this round the lead on times of money
one two come by next one two three four come by next that's a sick flash before it's a nice shot
oh he's looking good bro he had a quiet half his crystal scales aggressively
He's in the right pause.
That's a nice try, man.
That's a nice try, bro.
I thought he was gonna do it.
get nothing for free I thought he was gonna do it lovely a trigger discipline
there as well
yes he absolutely is oh I love that he clears the interceptor too
he's playing a blast
he's playing a high level
that's a double tap
this is filthy
oh it's so close
and that would have been it
that would have been serious
Yep, everything gone for Gen G.
He's got the best.
He's the dink, by the way.
Ashtag to 71.
Gen G just seemingly forgetting that you're
the ones who put his wall bang on display.
He's in need to get chipped away at.
We have some big ults here.
Draw those out as global eSports.
What utility you have left to check on this?
still the dog so the drone so very patient every team did a spam I mean it's looking like a
sensing that gen g is playing a little bit slow a little bit patient save some of that info
utile for the reclears later but this aggressive push-up thinks it's gonna try to sell something
here but he needs to not die there's the dimensional drift autumn dropping down off backplash still
spotting out lock yet man yeah she hear the only gun and they're having none of it
the biggest gun in the round. They get a lot close. This guy is just locking it down.
over, home spotted, just blare witching in the corner, they get a lot close, this guy's
just locking it down, the nice try, every single time you hear doing enough damage
that the money's never grown.
There's still going to be two that come by next.
I'm just gonna trust in the players
Three in a row there
Cheeky little TP attempt shut down have that extra layer there for Gen.G cover the backside really nicely thought out nicely set up
I am so sick, bro
I am just so...
Yeah.
Nice.
Uh oh.
Okay, they got past it though.
They got past over towards the same.
Ah, bro, they're same.
Hold, let's rock.
Trades it back, looks for the third count, find the kill, see it's trying to cross.
He's dropping back, trying to get the wallbang shot, so finish off him and he's side-flipping.
That's gonna be Udo just swarming forward, find the kill.
2v2, shot, start lobbed in.
Evolution now pops, getting the heal, right back up to full.
I'm gonna do a place lock, yeah, playing forward.
smoke now falling ash dead lockia to try to tie it up in a 1v2 looking for the
first finds it but cannot get the second and final honey will survive
who do you think he's refusing to lose break a three-round streak
maintain the lead carried over double digits obtained by the finished the
margins
Absolutely
Blancers I sit there thinking I'm like, you know pop is all good. I mean they're both messed up on me
They play off the Seekers Patman
Just wait there's a lot of your aim stabilizes a lot of saves in this round
Patman did insane
That's right
These days, I don't know whose timeout it's gonna be
It's Genki, so it should be, but you never know.
We'll be left with one piece after this.
Genki, doing well to make it this close.
This is hype? No, this is so hype. Dude, I'm telling you, this format is so good.
Every, like, there was a couple of games that was like, when you got to middle bracket, like the first games in the middle bracket.
bracket sure now it's so good and we get so many of them like legit just scrap
stage one stage two for sure just smaller tournaments you could fit four of
these in we could get four masters you're starting to get out you do four
masters as well the game in terms of free masters one chance we could fit an
LCQ in as well we'd save so much time it would be so sick a really nice job what
could be
the potential of next year
I'm ready to be disappointed
I'm really ready for it
a window peek getting ready to come through six and just a little bit behind on that one
well they know often playing where it's at
that autumn scaling forward it's gonna get a ton of info there's the trip but
timing here if he tries to read it's built up the round a little bit
three people come by next three people come by next he fought over towards med and reaction g
Push down towards C long at that early info
Grown as well Claire's middle guys the only place that could be right now is five garage or outside a
Thank you pick
Oh, dude, so all goes in on this guy and short mind to rush up
They're coming through, Zinx, forwarding here at the connect with the Cosmic Divide, they call in the approach from behind, comes in, the barrel spotted, upshot, wide.
The autumn is good timing, right?
Hey, he wasn't ready for it.
So 1v2, hots broken.
That's what's there. Push out of the smog.
The hotso's corner.
But he's given the angle to Autumn.
Push him down. Push him down to the eco.
And global eSports are two rounds away from eliminating Gen.G.
You can get a good buy though, right?
Two full loss bonus.
Should be an okay low buy.
In particular, sticking Patlin in the nice spot.
That judge will tell you not to move a muscle
until you know that they're committing to this A site.
Autumn winning that battle against Ash.
Absolutely massive, hobby with another nice gravity well with the kill to boot
Great decision there from autumn to pull off to back up its IGL. Oh, they forced wait in that round
Okay, they take the force, two hits of the armors, they miss an updraft and that's it.
Updraft and a flash, so it's not too bad.
Obviously they got Stinger though, Stinger Guardian.
Same thing happens, right?
Some kind of AD thought over towards C reaction to push down.
This C info that they keep on doing is giving them so much value.
Skydog outside A, spot one.
He isn't saying he weak right now.
There's nothing, stop this.
Okay, it's a hard retink. Let's keep an eye on Zovink.
Dude, he's smoking.
Dude, if he killed the Astra, that's a done round by the way.
What should happen is smoke on the spike, tap on the spike, then they go for a garage,
they're all spamming the defuser.
Okay, what actually happened is...
It's not crying.
1-9 lost bonus. Big round from Karin, he's had like 3 events, he's actually had like
3 big solo rounds. Dude, Quyster goes sooo early.
Like, Lockia tells Karaj, you do not stop watching those garage doors until you kill somebody coming out of it.
He was, I was watching him on the minimap. He was dialed in just constantly, like a laser.
I had the same objective as Patman had in the previous round.
You had a bucky.
Yeah, you did that with a bucky.
You kill anything that comes out of it.
Mate, you should be the person sticking the spike then.
Single guardian, the knives.
Global have to try to make this final push up to match point.
What's the eco like?
Yeah it's not great.
Gettin' nice though.
Gettin' nice light armor.
That was pretty much it.
And again, the GECOM has to kinda gamble like this, so they only have one to one trip.
How did they do this?
They smoked the side of the trip, they push all the way through and they don't expect it.
Hey, that was cool.
Moke the trip, four person walk past it.
I mean, they pick up a gun.
If Lakia gets a kill, he gets his ult. Obviously he doesn't want to use it in this round, but...
Texture should just farm them. For one shot.
shot he's having a really nice half as well okay this is the round though maybe a timeout
for this. It's a lot of us. Lacky gets a killstow, gets his ult, might change the rounds.
One, two, three, four, five. All come by next round.
Yeah, I mean they're just... Sets ending it.
I'm in flash on top of this.
Oh, missed the guy backside. Hit the guy short.
Big kill.
Dude, Alton's killed too.
He was just chill.
Planned attempt at a 2v3, the neural depth revealing. Player locations.
This... I think he just misfired that one.
Yeah, I think he might be... missed hand.
Brayford, they're walking on me.
He's dancing around the side. The one tab on the top.
Another tower around?
Papping around the corner, finds the kill.
Now all down to Lachia, the seeker.
Very nice from Patman.
Dude, Ultim did so good back to site, man.
the jet he's broken 30 kills as global e-sports break their way in
absolutely wild scene to great gravity well in short to stall
men's high he's been uh it's not the flashiest but he's been
been great what a shot from bottom hole my good
Oh, bro, he did so good.
This is it. Well, they both had a timeout.
Okay.
Makes no sense.
What did you use that as in?
I was waiting for it.
Little moments here and there, but who knows if Karan's able to claim another, if he's a little more patient behind the box, doesn't challenge Patman's angle, that gives over the Seekers and the Lachias in trouble and these little cascading events, you know, you invest in them.
I'm going to watch China, now we'll raid someone, I need to seek them for America.
and it starts earlier today.
Okay, 2 goes a bit for GE.
Straight up A head again. I mean they're picking the right side. It's insanely weak right now for retake.
They gotta stick over towards site because Astra ult.
You might see two off the site because of Sova ult, dude why are they letting the Sova
plant when he has Sova ult?
Haha, that's so risky, so what now he has to run all the way back, my guys.
The Omen with Omen flash doesn't path on towards Heaven.
Agents are okay.
This is how you play at 10-12.
Well, that's half.
He can tank a shock.
And Supa, though.
Oh, it's a nice recon.
Holy, that scares me so much, bro.
they don't play that well I promise you
no no they all went right?
no no no, I think he was dead
he's dead for sure
also close unbelievable stuff from lockia okay one last go Jen G there are
one away from that oh dude look at this bike it's not good the buy yeah it's
awful it's not great for G it isn't but autumn with that Marshall can make that
sing and crystal with a sheriff deadly at every twist and turn this is far from
over for Gen G, far from a guarantee. You know, a couple shots out or picked up texture, knives
drawn, looking for the headshot, quick little tuck back, you know. Avoiding, getting picked
off in hobby, finds texture through the smoke. What's texture doing? Rhystically.
Falling either way, that is a critical misfire. That is unbelievable.
Drone to mid finds nothing, Patman set up a sewer with that stinger.
It's like a B hit, but Javi's right on the case.
Just holding the angle, none of his stars there.
How finally good to go up at the front of sight.
Even where Crystal's at, Contra's swearing.
Bit of a no-brainer here for him.
Yeah, they just pinged it out, they want to line it up.
This site with the C larks, what do they want to do?
They kind of got two options at the moment.
They stick this and they go for a lark or they tap this, get out of there and try to take space in the scene.
the choke. Yeah, I can't get the O out of them. They're taking the space over towards
C. It's a good call and that's 5 HP. Big deal. Anything to stop the plant? Ah, it's done.
That's fully done. That's fully done. No way.
Damn, what a game this was.
What a game this was.
Nice, dude. GE.
Super close. GE have to reface PaperX.
And either team was gonna come out of this feeling that they could have won if they had lost, but it's gonna be Gen.G in the end.
Absolutely, truly a great series, a beautiful series, both teams showing us some incredible moments, some incredible plays.
The back and forth just absolutely insane.
Yeah, this was a really fun bus, it's real.
This is GE who just barely had a little extra in the tank.
This was a really fun one.
Look at that.
Look at Crystal, man.
Crystal's ready to seep as well.
He's got me tossed into a game decided
and built on so many critical moments,
whether it was hero plays or mistakes from both sides.
The neck and neck, the whole way throughout,
global eSports, however, they hold on at least a little bit
longer.
Dude, this was so good, man.
This was so good.
We should have seen it come consistent.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think we need to get vocal.
I think we need to get vocal, because I really want this format for next year, quite a lot
next year.
I think we need to get vocal.
It's so good bro, this is so good, there's so many good games, it's non-stop good games.
Maybe Weber doesn't have a reason to, but they should give a lot of fans out there a reason in their life to smile, but we'll go ahead and give it a second.
Maybe Weber's gonna fling.
This is a stage where Jen is gonna be standing by for a winners interview. I don't know who the hell she's gonna pick, but I don't think anybody, they're gonna be seeming pretty damn elated.
So let's go ahead and hear from GlobalE Sports.
GE with a well-deserved victory now for today.
We do our yearly tweet. Have we tweeted this year?
And I'm gonna talk to one of them.
I think a Flamethrower is at one point.
Well, congratulations, Yuzo-tan!
Now, I cannot believe that you guys actually managed to close it out,
because for us watching, we were holding our breath, and we almost threw up.
So, what was it like for you playing that match?
Are we outing Leo?
Got 10s?
10s instead of Leo?
The real CEO? You're right.
I'll give it to you.
Okay.
Gen.G, they've always been a tough opponent for us, so we came in well prepared, and I think it really showed in today's match, you know, the hard work and the hours that we crunched in.
So I'm really happy with today's results.
Now, know that, Yudel-chan, that this is the strongest iteration of global esports.
What are some differences and what are some, what are your thoughts on your new team this year?
I think Frost is definitely successful in G2's rebuilding.
What's China, bro? I gotta get back, man.
I gotta get back.
What's the difference between G2 and G1 this year?
I think the team that came in this year was very good at controlling the direction of the game.
I just thought it would be a good result if I just believed in it.
I think Frost is a great coach so honestly just he really has great ideas and great leadership
so I have full trust in him and you know following his guides I think it that leads us to victory
actually. Now I wanted to ask you about Frost and Vito because Frost told me that when he first
asked you to play the Vito you thought it sucked and you were like just let me play the chamber
But now you are Pacific certified veto specialist, one of the world's greatest veto player.
So how has your thoughts on veto changed?
What are your thoughts on this agent now?
Also, what makes a good veto?
And are you kind of concerned that the veto might get countered as we go deeper into the tournament?
Oh, good questions again.
Always ban your questions.
I'm curious about that.
I don't think it's that good yet.
Actually, I don't think people have been able to study about Vito yet.
I'm using it very well until now, but I think it'll be a bit...
I'll frame my next Saturday.
In between the 24 maps of Valorant, we're going to be watching?
Probably not that frame.
It's a pretty stock day.
That's true.
Well, I think I still think veto is not to Chevy kind of viable
But at first I really prefer to the chamber
But honestly when it comes to agents like chamber, it really depends on how you're you're feeling it on the day of the match
So as for veto, I think it's an agent that you can be more consistent on
With the aim and I feel like the teams haven't quite figured out the veto yet
So I'm not too concerned about being countered now
But I think as we go deeper into it, I think people will figure it out and we might need to deal with how
They will counter the veto too. Now lastly next up will be paper X for you last time
It was a very close match could have gone either way
So how confident are you in taking them down in that next rematch?
다음 상대 페이퍼렉스거든요
