I think I will do it after match one. So we have more people here instead of right right away, right?
That's better. I can do it now. It's probably better to do it later though.
What's up, Poi? What'd you say? Missed you, my sub, when I subbed you? Oh, you missed
my sub when I subbed you. I'm sorry. Poi, think of the tier one, then. Thank you. You said you
did it before the matches. I understand what I said, but it just doesn't make sense. What I said
doesn't really make sense because you want the most eyes on it when we do the opening.
See or no, like I have the bucks right beside me.
Carbon, they need the tier one then.
Sorry.
I think Hunter has an ego.
You saw him in rank just now. Guys, you guys take it too serious.
son yes take that stuff too serious he doesn't see he hasn't you go like any
other player but he's definitely learned from a lot of the stuff he fucked up on
back in two years ago they improve they change they fix everything that was
problem is with the internet I you guys refuse to give other people second
chances on anything no nice thank you to your one
You're gonna have $500 on cloud nine if we will if we win I'll sub the half
Do you think we'll win you don't have to sub the half brother? I do however think C9
C9 do win this game
I have to have faith that cloud nine can at least beat envy here because envy seems to be
Like they are convincing to me neither is cloud nine to be fair. It's a very even matchup, but I do like whose favorites
Yeah, I mean cloud nine our favorites
for most people as well.
If C9 loses this, I mean, this is just their season's over.
That's it. Let's put it that way.
I haven't subbed at all. I want to try once you're subbed.
Did you get a gifted?
Give me your prediction for the Haramble at Arsenal, Athletica.
I'm trying not to even think about arsenal games right now because this next game, which is in three days now
Is going to determine whether we win the win the Premier League or not and that scares me. It's like a it's like a final
Captain underpants thing of the prime
What does NRG need to fix and why is the answer adding Phoenix slash double duelist
I'm sure they'll try it. I think they also need to add elements of quick play, maybe,
that we haven't quite seen from them. They're also probably one of the best defaulting teams
in the region, so I don't blame them for playing the way they play, because they play percentages,
which is good. Like, it's not bad or anything. It's just, I don't think they have enough
aggression. It's the same problem I have with Fnatic. It's consistent the way that they play,
but sometimes readable. That's what it feels like. Salvich, thank you for the prime. Thank you,
thank you, thank you, man. Would you have Oxi remain on Cloud9 forever if it meant Arsenal winning
at all. Yeah.
Is that fucked?
The people not betting not realized that the only reason
the flowers.
Whereas the only reason C9 one last time was even one you
chill yo.
C9 if you look at player for player for player are good
players. All right. And Jordan is getting the hang of IGLing
a lot of the things he was calling I liked.
Yes. Last last game.
Actually, I didn't like Hayden all that much.
They just need some form, man, some belief in themselves.
Oh, chat, there's a, I have an announcement coming out, but I can't give you any hints
on it, which is fucked.
But I need to tell you that.
Can you let mods know? Yeah, I can let mods know. Yeah, do me a favor mods. Can we make
like a discord channel for just the mods and then just invite me in it? So I could just
if I want to get a message across to all of you, then yeah, I'm down. Okay, okay. Let's
that you see that and I'll tell you guys yo it's fucked
you are a father no I am not a father
no no no this one you guys are never gonna believe this announcement you're like even if I told
I told you guys I think I'm trolling, so.
Is the house finally ready? No, trust me.
That announcement will be made immediately on the spot.
Just as pregnant, look bro, maybe I am.
I'll see you in a minute.
I think the best time to do the unboxing is either after map one or the game one because
that's when it's keep your ship you know what I mean I want to get most eyes on it it makes
no sense for me to do it right away when the stream starts so I will let people like you
know trickle in and we'll do that.
What are you unboxing? The new in-zone products. Like a brand new.
That they have sent me.
And I think you guys are going to fuck with these ones.
Here are the coach of Cloud9, I mean, you expressed frustration about the game, your team, on post-media after last week.
What have we done to course correct for this week?
I mean, we played the match on a Sunday, and we have a match on a Friday.
So we've only had three-screen days, so it's just about getting our confidence back.
I don't want to say last day last week was a bad day because I hate that shoes, but okay
It's a horrific day, but so hopefully today's gonna be a good day. You know, I believe have a good day. I
Believe as well
Yo, yo, thank you for the 14 months and you
Thank you to see
Anemic, thank you for the prime
And of course
Like just be this verse
Take advantage of this thank you
That's the
Every single time we talk about oxy he's really stop hating on cloud nine. I've had enough something different
I don't think oxy was able to do as much last week. He was alongside not shady
Only getting five and as possible as possible second in his team
He doesn't need to the second is going to be a man, but for oxy you have penny on the other side
Who is playing that chamber? He's not going to find the openings every single time
Raps came to my rappers
Plays that we've talked about not really into anything like the sign rappers suck anyway, but I'm not even really that into
Yeah, I mean I'm mainly into baseball at the moment and football
I was on the neon. He did a lot of that same playoff still we got a lot
And he was just running into sight on pearl and not getting what's the difference between artists and Amy's not much
Read Ethan's tweet I already saw it
The thing is I don't even blame Ethan for thinking the way he does like for him
It's unfathomable that somebody acts out of conduct
especially when it comes to like what you say and how you like present yourself professionally because
he was
At 16 he at the age of 16 when he first when I first teamed up with him
He was more mature than most players I've played with like he wouldn't do anything wrong
He would listen to any and everything that the
Like and in the coaching staff said the IGL said
The way he conducted himself at a very young age
Most people don't even do in their adult life
so for him like
It does it's unfathomable why someone would get banned for something like this, right?
Because he would just never he's not even capable of it
So it makes sense.
Who are you talking about? I'm talking about Ethan reacting to the Kains Arabian.
I'm sure it's something positive so whatever will happen congrats mate thank you.
It should be another week. You guys will know in a week.
full xd thingy to the prime and banned it
you think 12 months is too long, I already discussed this
12 months is not too long had he been warned prior
in fact he got off easy is my like absurd take but i'm gonna tell you the truth
if something you've been told not to do something and you repeatedly do it
not saying that's what happened
I'm just assuming, then you're fucked.
They did a good job of playing around Demon 1, but for Envy, now it's like they're trying
to force Demon 1 into this world.
SWBY, thank you for the time.
And, uh, my fissure.
Different personalities on this team.
I don't think Kayn got any warnings.
Zyptonic, okay, let me just explain something to you.
Okay, just let's use our brains for like one second.
Maybe like five seconds.
All right, to give you a hypothetical,
do you think that Riot just instabanned him after one offense?
Do you actually think that that's what happened?
Because I refuse to believe that, just using my brain.
Yeah, I just have to assume based off. I don't know logic, I guess my own brain logic that
there had to have been prior warnings given. But yeah, you could be right to, I actually
don't know where the double deal is wasn't there and he was still forcing that your because
Is that good and who's getting are we watching together on you realize this? No, we're not watching together
It is such a massive different extra has
I don't watch any
And the next
That he has played in those it's only 63 rounds. That's it. It's just a slight
Okay
I don't know. Okay. I don't know. Maybe because sick isn't a player. So there was no formal
investigation into his behavior from Riot itself is what?
Best guess.
You've seen a lot last year, right, especially last week. What are your thoughts on the current
state of the agent? Is he playable?
ranked 100% low playing your in ranked but it matches it's a lot different in the future this stage
or even stage two can we expect to see you on your at any time it's hard to say honestly it's not
really my decision but who knows anything could happen anything could happen but he's technically
an inactive player on sense roster all right we'll talk I don't think he has any affiliation
with that nose period or any other side selection we got a 1v1 duo this one's gonna be between penny
and Rossi, but Merno, let's talk about what Eggster said in that interview just second to go to Elizabeth there because yeah, it sounded like, uh, you know, it's not the situation he wanted to be in.
Yeah, I think he can definitely tell that he's trying to own identity in that. And I'm just going to speak of that.
And me, Gula, David and Tia, you know what I want my chat to be like? I'm not saying I'm trying to like micromanage you guys because I love the way my chat is already,
But when someone makes a mistake, for example that guy
Literally straight up just said he thinks sick is part of the lineup, right?
Instead of shitting on him
Sometimes we can just be nice and be like now. I know what you're talking about
But actually that's not true. What VLR is saying. You know what I mean? Let's just like
Let the guy learn you know what I mean
Now we're good. Okay. Well, I tried
The whole time they were recording this, we were literally hearing everything he was saying, it was just great.
Oh my god, bro, we're wishing that.
I like that he reacts every time.
I love it.
But when chat is done, you shit on them, honestly, it's a very hypocritical statement I just made,
and I thought about it as I was talking.
Like, I do shit on you guys a lot, but I also do have moments where I'm, like, teaching as well.
I think there's gotta be a balance. Does that make sense?
Like, I don't always shit on you guys.
First of five.
Oh, clean. Rossi gets the win.
Come on, come on, come on.
All right, so Rossi gets the dub and that will give Envy.
You have the right, you can have the right message, but not the right messenger.
Yeah, I mean, look, this, the pressure's on for all these players.
Raphael, thank you for the fire.
It may not feel like it because the season kind of just started, but it's kind of where the stakes are right now.
right now. If Sam joined C9, would you join C9 as coach? No. If Sam ever joined Cloud9
and its current state, you could always assume that Cloud9 Haiti has one month left of actually
existing as an order. Because all the money is gone.
First of all, I think people are underwriting a little bit of what Lao did to get that win
against Envy.
Also, I think Envy, I know that there's a lot of personality out there.
I saw an interesting video posted by FlyQuest.
There was an interesting debate over whether close streaming and eSports events could be
good as a whole.
And I think that is something that...
You want to win me, though?
Because I'm curious.
That goes against Cloud9.
Things get really messy, so I think, you know, Kessner...
Why didn't you just think that I could win?
I didn't talk about kids that even want. Oh, okay
So you're saying Sam is
Or they talk about that I mean yeah, Sam is is playing on another team again until he makes
It's either a godlike team similar to his old energy team
I think c9 they do a really good job of adapting and knowing where they got wrong and I saw in your earlier
You didn't work this like he out for whatever he wants to check
They're back in shape. Yeah, it was a yelling
Yo, listen, I'm gonna warn you the same way I warn anybody else proys if this is a troll link you will be banned
It was easy to wonder if good boy
2021 was going to be the peak of League of Legends World's viewership.
That year, League World set a new record with over 4 million peak viewers and over 174
million hours watched.
Viewership dropped substantially in 2022, although that could be blamed on the event
being held in Mexico and losing a lot of Asian fan watch time due to how early games were
for the many, many League fans in that region.
But after viewership remained stagnant for Worlds 2023, which was held in Seoul, it was
time to ask the question, was that a peak League would ever reach again?
The answer, as 2024 showed us, was a resounding no.
Worlds hit a new viewership peak in 2024 and it just barely missed that peak again in 2025
by a mere 10%.
The key to that rebound were co-streamers like Cajal, who altogether accounted for nearly
half of the watch hours for Worlds 2024.
And this isn't just how it worked for Worlds.
In 2024, co-streamers accounted for huge chunks of the viewership share of games in Riot's
five main regional circuits, that's LCK, LEC, CBL, LPL, and LCSNA, ranging from 32.3%
of LCK viewership to 70.9% of CBL viewership.
So the overall number of people watching League Streams is going up, pretty substantially
compared to 3 years ago.
It's pretty easy to then make a conclusion from this data that content creators are saving
League of Legends.
But if you look beyond the surface, you'll see that the answer might just be the opposite.
What's that?
Riot began integrating co-streaming into its eSports broadcast with Valorant in 2021
and expanded it to League in 2023.
This was a time where tons of cash was flowing into eSports from various sources like Venture
Capital and Cryptocurrency companies.
In an attempt to keep showing revenue growth and keep-
Batch is starting, bro. This is an interesting video, man. No, it's not.
Venture Capital interested. Many teams started paying and overpaying for content creators to
try to keep that line going up. A ton of investments from Venture Capital and other significant outside
sources of eSports funding were predicated on not just big numbers at events like League Worlds,
but constantly increasing numbers. Riot was willing to give up some control over the content of the
broadcast to the co-streamers in order to reach their audiences, portions of which either had
little desire to watch the mainstream or wouldn't have even known about it at all. That was a fine
approach in the short term, but as we've seen, venture capital money can dry up fast, and then
the teams were left holding onto an empty bag. This is a big reason why teams like 100 Thieves
and FaZe have struggled in recent years. It's also a big reason why the main product of League
of Legends Esports, the official broadcasts of the games, has declined in quality in recent years.
If you're a viewer, you might not necessarily care about the economic health of orgs, and really you-
Wait, what?
I'm a built-in of the prime. The sponsors are leaving teams because content creators are taking...
um, the viewership?
Is the claim?
Is that supposed to be Kane?
You shouldn't.
That's not your problem.
There is a more important question to be asked, though, when that's relevant for the C-suite
and fans alike.
Content creators, personal sponsors, and esports ligates, I don't know.
Co-streamers and content creators are bumping up the numbers, but are they actually adding
value?
Are they creating more fans of League of Legends or Valorant or whatever game they're streaming?
Or are they just creating more fans of their own streams?
The crux of the problem is this.
Riot's broadcasts are necessarily much more buttoned up in
question where it's like kind of wild that we're still having this conversation yeah the major patch
came out so it did throw a lot of even was yet a lot of these teams are still in this scrappy
yeah perspective i think that i think the meta changes the biggest reason for a little bit of
their struggles and also they have a lot of flexible players and so does md for c9 so flexible
that it makes sense for them to be able to rotate through these but oxy back on the neon and like
Like you said, Zepha on the side.
This was one of the players that,
when we were talking about the meta change,
we were like, it's not gonna work, it's not gonna work.
Zepha's so bad, he's so bad.
He was dropping 30s on Skye before the buff.
And I like that composition as well.
I like the buys and play too.
I mean, interesting double duelist though.
Demon one on the jet, Dan, your thoughts.
I really like his 8-way double duelist on Breeze last week.
And even though they didn't win it,
this is what they should be playing.
It's still gonna be like a baby jack
because he saw us raise we're going in for him,
Let's see.
Wow, that's scary.
Yeah, that is very scary.
That's going to be very fun to watch.
Let's see how this all unfolds and get into our first map of the weekend.
Let's have everybody pass this.
You know them.
You'll love them.
Here's Mimi and Ender.
Thank you very much, Goldenboy.
We're going to dive into Envy versus Cloud9.
Two teams here that suffered losses back in Week 1.
Chatting even one chance at MVP.
Let's see, let's see.
Let's see, been a minute since we saw this guy.
It's... it's certainly a hero.
Eight years? Thank you, little bro.
Point was, non-competitors only two-person numbers,
coming in and out, usually bringing in strong diehard audiences,
that I heard all these
interesting compositional match here
going for that vice on cloud nine which is so good
and I think that's like a lot of
threads to follow to get to one conclusion
maybe though, maybe there's a somewhat of a point
okay!
both Nulets down!
let's go oxy!
trying to walk down mid on him
OK, now overstack towards A. Unfortunately, that is the wrong call.
Nope, it's actually might be the right call.
And he's going to die there.
He killed him.
Oh, there's Subway B.
a free plan
Flow
And eggs are supposed to go from here now they finally hear the spikes been planted on the other side of the map
Damn, I just realized you have a big app for it. All right. He's down. See what you look like bitch. I was already left in
Talking looks here. I'm the biggest struggles last week for for cloud nine was their team fighting for me when they were getting
When they were holding sites against flood retakes
Have you ever...
No, wait, what?
He ain't wrong, no, he's not.
He's not.
FLOWLESS!
They're bad.
X are really...
XERRY DOOTS, you're a dude, little one.
Eddie, come on.
Mimi, you know, you talk about them winning out and you don't think I see what you're doing, but also we see Penny getting to activate on the lurks too, which is going to be critical here, I think, on split.
That is clean, too. That is clean.
Just much better shooting from Oxy and either player able to find him there.
And this is a kind of composition for Envy that lives or dies on fights like that.
And if you can't survive the prelude to how those tools are going to go, it's a bit of a worrying sign.
Yeah, because you talk about it compositionally, right?
I don't feel real
That felt like someone who's bet against his team but had to cheer for the camera
I know he has it. I'm just saying that's what it looked like
Bunkering down five players over on the A site is again C9. I think the solution this map so far has just been to break apart mid
Absolutely, and welcome to 2026 Valorant guys. We're picking neon. We're abusing the judge
Anything is a problem. He's got that sound and seeing nothing here on beat sound production another easy point for cloud nine
That's a quiet approach. I would have seen I'm doing get on the side. There's a spike
Could I hear anything? I don't know again that they're on the long side of the world
Clean rounds of this time for sure flawless farm up some orbs here
This is sick. I mean disgusting or freaks
And a sprick as knit
Wow, incredibly impressive. It's very, you see teams actually hear that outside of a bitch, but without buying anything just classics, I respect it.
Well, it's because we haven't seen Raisin' so long, right? And you need that damaging utility with the vulnerability of the Viper.
Don't worry guys, I'm gonna throw my Goryflash at the ground while we're replaying this, okay?
Oh yeah. I mean, this is a big tower play.
Now, rightfully classic shots, those are just some flavor.
No, why'd the fist bumps after kill me?
I like the fist bumps at the end. Good job, guys, we did it.
Yeah, like what?
What?
To be main, to build, SkyA alone.
Okay, and they're doing AD fault.
Perfect.
Oxy get across no damage though.
Free ARAM control that they fold back.
So far, so good.
They've made four players play A on C9 right now.
Oh no, why are they re-going A?
I thought this was like a fake ARAM control into a mid control.
They're going back into A.
Ah, they played themselves.
Except the popping of the ace
Oh my god, oh my god, Penny. Penny, good, good. Penny!
I need Penny to stay like closer to C spawn in this situation, when his team cleanly takes the A bomb site.
And not where he stuck.
Now Flash train guide the rest of Andy back into the site.
Still a judge in their path.
Doesn't matter for a lawsuit.
Oh my god, he's raked all day for this.
And now popping onto the spike goes for half.
Is he just going to hold it?
Is he just going to stick it down to the wire?
No.
Zepa steals it right on back.
He's actually back.
Incredible Red Book lecture, Zepa,
to close out C9's bonus.
And that one was looking good for Andy, but we need to stick.
No need to punish.
They can't find it.
That's such risk.
They've been looking for years.
Yeah, I didn't really like this from Penny positionally,
but huge play from Zephyr here.
Can't find you on the scoreboard.
Oh boy, we've got ourselves the gamers Jordan. What is enough? I don't you agree
A sheriff
And for cloud nine two losing all four of their pistol rounds back in week one now
When their pistol win the bonus and go back to that mid control that was working on those low-by-rounds
I like this guy also having good eyes.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's just not gonna cut it buddy.
Oh, oh my god. This might be an early pause.
Besides that, they gave Zepa a big clutch and Oxy a good start.
Wait, what?
It should still be a secured round here. They have flank as well. They have nothing to worry about.
And these guys don't have rifles.
45 seconds cool wait and see if they can get a freebie. Yeah, they're waiting for Vic to get a smoke reset
I think for heaven because the spike is out in the open if Zepa and oxy are on fire
It's just there's just no way man
Nice
I mean could have been cleaner, but it's all good. I'm not going to enjoy it. I'm being into fun
Yeah, I saw it from them got real scary at the end there. What a nice timing to find with that double headshot out of the classic
To zoom out on the Toronto, I think Cloud9's approach to this one, but they're doing a lot of 1-3-1,
showing not early with the Neon to pressure, and then fall back and wait for the reply.
How dirty, we got it done!
He's a really good approach.
Gun round, baby, let's go.
Brother, you had your gun round.
You got 1v3 by Zeffa.
When they hear pressure in one part of the map, going for big, active, re-clear stick together,
where they saw that.
And I think Cloud9's approach is all about baiting out these big players early, and finding that weak side.
Okay, heavy A ramp all down. This paper X is doing this. The triple swing A ramp.
That's big! That's big! That's the commitment I'm talking about here.
Oh, Aggie. Oh, Aggie. Oh, Aggie.
Got him.
Somehow get some stats now still gonna be some shots to trade him back down
No chance for him either
Was the buy round from Envy instantly taken apart
You see how much the neon the mid player can't die
I mean if you have three people a the mid players entire job here is to play very
Buried I probably hear passive angles since there's to be only something like play as passive as possible
You cannot get stuck there and then get run down. They just can't out never happen
When there is a neon as a big mistake that internal timing and you saw how much oxy destroyed him back to get the opener
Cuz on the yore you'd have to wait for that time for the teleporter
Yeah, and it's just a telegraph, right? You hear that, you see a flash, something like that
Neon, no, you just make the play
Well, do you want to consider-
I mean, it's just a pause at this point
They're just gonna pause, there's just no way
This is bad.
That is a fucking nice play from Oxido. Good job by Zayac as well.
And then jumping around, make sure he's been doing extra. Just going one for one. W plays.
No glades, actually W plays.
See what I mean guys, I'm telling you, you gotta have some faith in Cloud9.
I know what they're gonna say, it's envy bro.
That's so great.
That catches the agent sort of re-enters the agent pool, especially on a guy like Zepha
who has literally been playing this guy for five years now.
All of them, every year that this guy is playing.
Every year, yeah.
I'm pretty sure.
When I looked at these men, I'm missing.
Okay.
Neon's crew.
Question.
Do you still think Arsenal is going to win the Premier League?
I don't even want to talk about it.
Every sign for me was saying this.
I'll say this.
It's the first time in the entire season that I've had actual doubts.
They have one of the best Sky players in our league.
They have Oxy.
Why do you guys laugh?
What's funny about that?
Someone said we're gonna get a quadruple all right? Quadruple of second places.
Michael Scott, thanks for the comment.
The end thing in the prime.
news with the lost bonus and blades from this time zero one is all but guaranteed to get an
off in his hands next time it's gonna be late but that will be a faster wow 2079 days not since
2020 the envy and c9 i mean envy wasn't even in franchising of course that's that is absurd
to this fast v hit first time we get a look like that and keznit is on site with the judge
already gives up his position extra i'll come back to that wait trying to tear what the fuck i
I didn't even blink, I literally looked to my right for a second.
What?
He's sending potato things from.
Excerpt form? Let me see.
I mean, what are we doing going through a smoke drop?
Do we literally have Skye? Don't watch this.
What the fuck was this strat?
Red for the drop comes in, Kessnitz making a lot of noise on site, so I think a lot of
Cloud9 players are more worried about that than the flood out from Heaven.
That news for Cloud9 is their momentum is at least momentarily off it.
Full mid control?
Oh boy.
Wait, have we read this?
Wait, we read this.
We know they're having it.
Why do we know they're having it?
heavy armor's under that wait even if they walk down in here there the timing
won't work from what we're gonna hit it a lot of light armors but maybe not the
payoff in around like this for C9
what was that why is it so loud?
oh god oh god oh god oh found him I mean to pop him you're completely alone
Oh brother
You know what I've had enough pushing the put him on race
And be taking their time last time rushed into this a retake
To get past his scope
They have been destroyed by cloud nine. I mean, okay, okay, let's look I get the concept about playing heavy mid
Why is the sky playing a bomb site committed the only two if you are playing for middle and the whole plan is to big flank
Why is this guy solo a committed? These are basic rules that must be followed in dollar
Basic there you guys know this. I'm spitting everywhere. You know
Let's go boys!
I'm not used to get a spray used to when you were playing with the Yoru every map and you had flashes
and you didn't have to worry about that with a comp like this it gets difficult.
You can't do...
These are basic rules that must be followed. If you can't even do that, right?
It doesn't matter if you're missing your shots, I'm never gonna give you shit for that.
If you're just missing but you're like over stacked or something, at least your thought process is there.
I don't get that stuff.
This round, C9 are taking their time and making sure that no point business is going down into mid.
It's basic. It is. It's so basic.
Like, think about it. If you're a Vod reviewing, I have to meet this as he go round anyway.
If you're a Vod reviewing and your team is walking down mid and then you see your sky is playing slant,
like, at least four players on the team, these four players in mid are asking the sky,
what are you even doing here? Guaranteed in order to kill.
Put those paint shells, their backside is a bit of a conundrum right now, for C9.
Host, thank you to uh, two months ago.
Still not convinced that Kassnet has left the space, fine.
Can you get me on Envy or no?
GMB at this point I think you can get yourself on Envy.
Just send in an application, you'll be just fine.
They can still approach before they can do anything here on B.
You don't need me.
But none of these weapons can actually get picked up.
And again, limited tools to actually break into the site.
Kassnet already ripped the showstopper.
not long for this one also would you never hear the end of it yeah I mean it's
just obvious though it's like obvious from ranks
fucking playing on a team it's obvious from rank
any early challenges to that Envy squad takes things up to one
the way oxy's playing this neon is diabolical if you watch his entry that
round he has a judge he goes into a smoke and he's swapping to a shorty second
We're always double poke at the end here, there it is.
Didn't get a kill in this round.
It may be whimsical, but it's also just so strong with those shotguns.
Can do right now.
10 and 5 for him.
6 round deficit for Envy.
I think C9 might just like their chances on a B rip here.
Nilsus has that skill garden ready to go.
No, boy.
They're gonna be halted.
Okay, we're gonna pop B.
of the
the sky played a perfect case played a perfect time to die for free
on the fast lane too there's players in front of the enemy just lost
and he is so fucking lost it's blowing my mind
and c9 get two kills for nothing
hard to say what md is going to do from here seekers have already been thrown
down all right someone miracle the round for md here
he's the sepa into the corner now deem who want to pop him to have a ride
that corner player dealt with pressure onto the spike
Wow, just full miracle. Full miracle in the individual skill one in that round.
The decision to fight B main should be way quicker. There's no way that she gets split on.
The Vipers should not be getting split on that easy.
No shot.
They did barely win 8 rounds too, so there's Brooke if they lose this one.
And the half is just good, like full gone at that point.
Game is just gone.
They have free mid control again.
They're gonna get free mid control.
I've noticed in a lot of these rounds Poppin is using very early utility
A flash, a dog, gone with 20 seconds in the round
At least they're kind of trying to Viper mid here
They have good utility Viper ult or Viper molotov and Nate raising in
Ends up meaning that they're, you know, usually getting another skyflash
Oh boy. Alright, X-tier. Good luck. Good Nate though
Big kill. Huge!
Honestly, I'm getting too there to play. Very good.
He was completely essentially doing by himself.
Michael, they're gonna pro.
Should be a Cloud9 round, but who knows what these teams.
into the smoke poppin chooses not to use the flash there it goes penny is still
alive wait about a ball up and lossy comes down for the kill they have to
know that's a see-through live so little time left on the clock demon one
needs to try and get that one to half does he have the time for it I'm not
sure it's gonna be down to the water for demon one fuck is ticking and he has it
Oh my god, he is saving them. He is saving them so dearly.
How has Cloud9 lost that? That was literally the game-winning round there for Cloud9.
They win that round, they actually just win them that.
And now Eddy has a chance.
bro you're a s**t what the f**k
demon one, step it up here
in these last couple of rounds
that's gonna bring us to a cloud nine time out
after winning the first five rounds in the row
and we have started to put something together here on the defense
yeah, the initial read was to go for a lot of these early
fair enough I guess, but let's do it just
it's not like they're tactically doing anything wrong
they're just not closing out the post
Twice they had like a 5v3 disc with and they lost the post plan at the end of the game, but this game should be 9-1 right now.
Grown ass men drinking out of a mug.
3 on 3 of these last two rounds exactly thank you from penny perhaps something
like that could activate have another element while the figures just be saying
anything I know the soul for C9 is gonna be it's not gonna be meeting that a main
aggression with a brawl like envy have been going for round after round and said
maybe back to that one three one yeah I like to see it I think he's using his
Rossi don't get caught again, he did a good job not dying, had oxy burn him down though,
I feel like he might have died again.
Yeah this is the problem, Envy gives up so much of them now.
No, but you're already have full control Jordan is just fucking your team on entries
She's got a chill a little bit for sure. They kill that poppin though
Penny this is obviously you know it
Fully committing back into vents
Yeah, I'm not really a fan of this calling. I think you have to pause in that 4v5.
Oxy shouldn't be dying, it just pause.
You have a clone in 4v5, and you have most of the map. The opponent has to make the next move.
You must pause.
I still like that early approach from Cloud9, I'd like to see them mirror that again with
going into this mid space.
Rash shoot, thinking of the front.
Don't ask, I've actually not minded Cloud9's calling this game except for that round, that
from C9 in particular, we're all C.
Having used all of his gas there to get across
the C9 into Heaven.
Kazna was waiting for it, but it doesn't matter.
He saw two, man.
He saw two.
Oxy now, lightning has come in.
He saw two, there's two A, there's two B, there's two B.
Someone take this two B, go away.
The options, they're going all the way around the world,
they're going back.
W, man.
Fenderside spawn, what a round from C9.
Popping C2 heard it both a judge at hand,
and without C9 going into Heaven,
There's not anything he can do from this position.
He's having the Seekers. A chance for a one-on-one against Oxy.
Oh, this is madness.
Judge me, Judge.
That round's just over.
The doctor knows he's under a lot of pressure.
Even if I have nine campers for him.
And he's choosing to separate on the opposite sides of the map.
But this time, Penny was ready for the flank.
And the rest of C9 are not going to be pushed out of here either.
Oxy for three.
And C9 can be brought to the map.
It's so bothersome to me watching this every day.
A bout of heroics make it doable for Envy.
But have no doubt this is a half the cloud nine was formerly in control of a piece of little bonus ring
It's some good calling throughout
sets them in an excellent position
Big a fantastic start out of honestly, but decent recovery from the menu to like every pixel win this game now
I'm not gonna easily ended this
10 to half minimum they should add even one has saved them
Professional than somebody's personal stream.
For a long time, these more professional broadcasts were the only options fans had to watch events
like Worlds.
This meant that Riot and its official broadcasters were almost 100% responsible for creating
and disseminating the storylines of Professional League of Legends.
And for a long time, they did a great job.
Part of the reason why there was so much hype for Worlds is that Riot's broadcast team
was able to construct compelling storylines that could give people reasons to watch even
if they hadn't spent the whole year following the circuits.
But now, that responsibility has been spread out to the co-streamers as well.
And while their personalities are able to draw in some fans who are turned off by the
more corporate style of broadcasting on the mainstream, that doesn't necessarily come
without a cost.
Hi, my name is Nick. Nice to meet you. And my hot take is that I think content creation is
responsible for the demise of legal legends in North America. The first part, not in content
creators control, but the monetary difference in value between content creation versus being
professional as you just mentioned. And the second thing is I think the narrative has transitioned
from being in solely in control of the right production team, which has always done a fantastic
job of creating narratives. And now it's in the hands of content creators. Now more than ever,
especially when it comes to LTA content. A lot of the narrative around it is very negative and toxic.
I guess my point is when you look at the co-streamers in general and you see like what Caterl's doing
and Caterl's doing a great job in terms of I watched the game where it was two bottom teams
in the LEC playing against each other and just highlighting the good positive plays the teams
are making regardless of the overall standings and ring teams of the teams versus like what
Dom does where I saw he posted a video saying the title of the video was 15 years of competitive
of League of Legends equals this and he just spent 80% of the time flaming,
shop firebell in, and even pause for poor play. It's hard to build a brand, especially as a player
and to me it's really negating.
To show out, Demon One has been afforded a Sheriff and Light Armor in this fifth round.
See what he could do on the attack side. He's gonna be solo.
Okay. That's a nice typical path you're gonna see.
That's actually a really good fucking set hit.
I feel like MbLoki deserved this round.
How is this paranoia that insane though?
Heaven dashed from Jett with a paranoia A Heaven?
Into the vents guys?
I have not seen that.
Oh my god, he almost hit it.
That's actually a very cool shot.
I think there was a world he wins that
Even still demon one delivered when they needed
I feel like that flash timing was a little off because even one could have just died so that first guy hit a shot
before the
He moved out of the way, he's gonna go out of the way.
No he's just, I'll be sure.
I'll be sure.
But it is that Sheriff to get the kill.
They saw Envy.
Exter!
They died to their Molly Molly's last time.
C9 going down a little bit.
Good, great fucking hole.
Cloud9 could have just buried them here and they did it.
And now they have to deal with this.
And now they're gonna get their back comes.
Come back down and be clean it up and they managed to that's so sad
Even ones like feeling it too. It's just round fuck this game
Is the fact that we had demon one subbing in for oxy back during kickoff
We did now he's playing against C9 and they're playing against double duelist and oxy neck and neck in the leaderboard
Going into a close second half. I do wonder what C9 would have been like if they had both of them at a time
What would have been interesting you see cloud nine used to be normal and just show playoffs now
It's just
Talented duelists in this server as you say and bring me control
They hit the brakes for control doc clears all events demon would get there doesn't gets events for free
This much map control at 120 is insane without doing anything proactive
Like right now if you're cloud nine you have to repush be made clear towards a heaven you have to repush a
Or you just gamble stack B because you have vies holding A but then sky has to get in to site and hold with
So much space just so much space it did you tell us half decent how do I just lose as said
C9 have a little
One to set up to walk down B main
Interrupted the timings. It was already inside of the smoke
I'm absolutely sick to my stomach just no pro activity guys they have shitty guns we
don't need to be proactive they're attack side bro they're gonna run you down if you
don't get any sort of activity going
committing to the re-hit. I think we saw them rushing who had a lot of plays in their last match they played.
Sinan, this is big implications. You went from at one point a second. Your dark horse is looking malnourished.
Now the deficit only being one.
That is alarming, especially considering that so much of that success from Sinan was right at the start of the game, right?
They were in this same position when they won the question. Okay, this is another basic rule, by the way.
But if you lose all of mid in the first 10 seconds of the round, like you lose this space,
you lose vents, you lose vents control, period.
And you have no eyes here.
Your standard play should be playing aggressively here and finding the lurker or playing deep
in bomb sites, deep.
If you don't want to get proactive, fine.
But at least play deep far angles to take advantage of your long range rifles.
You know what I mean?
At least then you're giving yourself a chance at good trading.
Nah, it's just over now. They just lose.
Unless Oxy has some different...
Another gear
This is where they choose to get proactive on these kinds of rounds
I think you'll take it on an Inca rounds Victor said base
That's very
Aggression they don't actually have much presence on the rest of them. I don't do it
Popping playing can say yeah, it's a weird round for both teams because neither of them have any control over mid whatsoever
So I did the Zels's have a hero rifle C9 or worried about you're so weird
So they fully give up a heaven and said bunker down two players on each site to try and fight through it somehow
The issue is even with bad guns
The longer they let this tick I start to get slightly worried about getting into the bike
Thank you. Yeah, there's a wall. There's a thorns. There's a flash
not to mention a bucky right here on the opposite side random and Rossy's gone
fully through a I mean I doubt what I actually can't even tell alive somehow
now he's been taken out forcing the hit into the vise this is why Jordan not
a hero rifle he's a god hero is what he is disgusting throw up in the green
lantern the hero rifle and you'll put that ring on brother that I have just
witness you were saying even if you think you have sight why are you walking
through my this is even at a chance to get the kill regardless
you hate to see it let's go baby going back in blond
I don't know what's going on there but see that happens to fun after around like
that I suppose and now demon one back off the op for attack well anyone challenge him in mid
doesn't seem to be the case free being in control which is fine as long as you have a
kid ready and the powers ready for the hit they've got a show stop which they do they have four
people being I mean keep selling it because I'm feeling the same tilt they probably are
working that round buys retake a as you should be in this situation dog sees absolutely nothing
Up mid, Demon 1 reconsiders his life choices. Why did I buy this up? There's no one actually-
Oh, the X-Finger 2-1?
C9 are playing like cowards just playing behind their utility.
Where's the fight? Look how far back C9 are playing all the way around the map.
Oh my god, W read C9. W read-
It's literally your round to lose. You read it, perfect.
Even if there's only three here.
You can call it a default.
Neon stun, Viper molly, paranoia. This result is fucked.
And even if you spend a minute with no info, you're still hitting a site with no info.
You're coming into three players and you're going to rip an Omenholt rocket into it as well.
We'll see what Kaznick can find. That's one.
That's big.
But Kenny is there on the other side.
Oh my God, you can't have this.
Still not simple. Four Envy.
Nice.
Demon one picked up a rifle now.
Look at the sight.
In sheen.
Four.
But he wants to look at the right sheen.
Vick on three.
That's a game.
On four.
Untouchable.
Come and get him.
Excellent anchoring from Vick back sight there.
single-handedly closes out the round.
They broke right? I think they broke.
Mark-type of hold.
back to back envy are gonna be talking about how they can probably play these early rounds with
all this because oxy decides if he wants to take a stroll through aiming into a bombsite and not call
his team back early aggressive plays freezing and then re-fighting you can think about that is like
fast-taking a heaven you know fast-taking up mix something like that you freeze for the
real aggression and then you wait it's what they did on the pistol round it's the pistol round or
they pinched they have it and the bonus that has been green in front hanging out in vents for forever
that's always a good look no more site hits into the vice please let's let's let's load things not
slow things down without what did what can be done one day by himself here and then freeze to bring
this back now there's a few more problems abound than how you play the round sure you just don't
have the money in your bank account unfortunately for an envy hot take they can be part of a
a championship winning team? I mean it's not really odd to anyone. Like, you know what I mean.
Like, he's talented enough obviously, but this is unfortunately not the world we live in.
Where he's on the championship level team right now.
Interesting choice. Oxy also has an outlaw in hand.
It looks like a fake B heaven dive out from N.V. There's a paranoia sent up there too. Now
Double-facing the line. No way. No way. Nice work from Kessnet.
There's rifles.
There nearly could be a thing to get them back in the game.
Yo, if you got that second kill.
The classic is one kill, and Sina are kind of going out this one by one.
Oh my god, they're so low, though.
Poppin's one HP, bro.
Zeppa now into the site.
And notice, I mean, this is a disaster from Sina and Kessnet.
Torred open.
Oh my god, they just got Eco, yo.
Now Selsis finds himself facing down three members.
Cool B rush.
Two are low, but the secret is confirmed as position, you just stack up together, it'll
be tough for him to win this.
And see how Envy have taken two players up into B Heaven as well, great positions to
work from.
Well not just one, but Ross is good for it.
Oh my god, how many chances are you gonna get to just put this game away and then throw
it away?
Yeah, and now you have to look to see.
I mean that's a nice ass shot from Pez, isn't it?
Rout should have still, I feel like, been secured.
Just because they had 2B having it.
Or was it only one?
Yeah.
I think part of it too, with that first fight that went down, is
Oxy has a misread on how Envy are buying armor.
Envy actually forced two rifles from other teammates so their duelists could buy heavy armor.
So oxy it's a shot, but it's not a kill. No, that's a big difference. Okay
This is very good. Now we leave we leave someone on an aggressive line or just play full retake on it
I like this as well very aggressively in me on over rotates back to be you put enough pressure at a main
Very very good setup. I'm very good. He gets to as well
And he finds a couple and now with neither tool is available from envy. Where do you go from here?
It's so tough to get any space.
I mean Jordan is never going to die in this situation I don't think.
Big Sky else as well.
I would have liked for him to wait a bit before throwing the ult.
But yeah, they get B-Made off of it so it's fine.
Sky's going back towards A.
They're pretty far away from each other though.
Jordan does die here.
and we-
Ah, he's playing on with no one helping.
You never know so that vices
Let's just get distracted with the mini game on this gun
30 seconds left this seems eerily familiar
I do like the choice to walk heaven, but there's a wall here
So we all have to get the timing through last time we failed it this time together nicely done
Flash up into heaven, but keep your eyes on Zelsis back site
Talk to the corner now look in the right direction. I'm gonna
Spuses was my garden I'm gonna lose mine are all out of sorts
It is a mess on this A site But oxygen Zepa still have a chance they work forward together
And we have no control
whatsoever trying to walk out the three of them together
I mean you cannot work this you absolutely can't throw this if you're gonna place
Have a second player with you if you're you should just be playing we take Jordan should be fully out of this bomb site
This was looking at my to her be Oman old and you just wait on the reason I think he was trying to turn a flash
I want to see back where that flash actually went because his teammate flashed at the same time
He Zepa just said he's watching that sticking the old in backside. Maybe thinking support was more on the way or there
Would be no one's guarding the planter. I don't know. Yeah, that case Eric
the teammates I oh my it's breaking my brain thinking something Mimi yes I just
want to see this again see if we can grab that for you yeah and we though again
winning out these improbable rounds here it is
I mean I couldn't even see it now. Oh it's a teammate flashed and he's trying to turn.
And there you go. Yeah they're even thorned. Okay I understand a little bit there were thorns on the spike.
Oh my God.
What happened to the listeners? Let's just not.
Let's just not.
Could we take that here?
Let's do one more of these there.
Oh my God.
should have control over this A site no smoking to heaven just yet there's an angle for zelsus to look for
maybe even just a steel garden try and activate quickly back into this site just didn't do anything
c9 just found themselves in a two on three position this time have to get through an orb have to get
through the viper's pit as well they don't have any tools just too smally to try and flush someone
That'll be a help, hold the chicken very low, but he needs more.
A first kill out from Penny, and he holds on to the lines, he's a player to pop on through
and it's one on one.
Penny has delivered, four Zelsis, he's facing the wrong direction, and Rossi has time, Rossi
for three and we're all tied up.
Cloud9 full-scented on that A fight and despite Oxy's hero, it's taking down both doors.
The trait here was just better from the other side.
See him get caught on this slide through and then top it.
Like, C9 has good ideas. I'll say that. They have good ideas. They just can't close around.
It's all this. They can't close arounds. They don't know what to do in the middle of the round.
And this second half has been so weird.
BOOOOOOOM! Let's gooooo!
It was Envy and Affirm Control, a blunder of a round opens the door.
I don't expect the stakes like leaving you're in a 4v3 or in a 4v3 in your advantage.
Just trying to play on the bomb site.
I see why he played on, because they had Omenult to rotate fast, and he has Vyze Util to delay
the hit, so the Omen is able to ult.
It's just...
They should've been winning this round, and they lost.
Envy is actually getting the pick.
EZWIN Cloud9 is trying to make a play.
Either that or it's just Envy's kind of chaotic late rounds
where they're failing.
Well, C9, they're still gonna keep putting Oxy on this A side for now.
Oxy helped them.
Look at Ekster, though. What a recovery, huh?
From last week.
Maybe some ideas to play around with.
You gotta get it to him.
He's recovered well, individually.
Envy is just gonna be a half buy from them.
Putting together what they can giving Envy a chance to take the lead for the first time all game
Both anchor players just playing super passive is the little by round
You don't want to get caught up by like a trap play which is how many times
Envy pressures mid then goes back into five minute
That might not be the world
I guess they're still missing is which sky flash outside a main didn't hit so they're
Guaranteeing it's going to be now, but it's not pressure in mid. I think they've got to have an idea
That's enough for them to make a read definitely
And it's a good one so far as that but just has a bulldog on screens and even now he's given up the angle
So again this
Well, at least the sky is retake, finally, and they're just playing the regular 5v5 retake.
This neon judge could be a problem if they exec this well.
I mean, he did what he could.
Yeah, she just did what he could.
But still, Rossi.
A problem for Cloud.
Rossi, chill.
Rossi, you're so active.
Are you out of your skull?
Brother?
Trying to catch the timing, I think, with Poppin swinging onto the line.
And now things get a little bit more uncomfortable.
Rocket popped.
So much riding on this round of nezzat.
Has to deliver.
Has to find it.
And he will.
Envy, take the lead.
It has been a story of heroes for Envy.
They're two superstars. The new additions this year, and even one in Kessnet have stepped up.
This time, Kessnet with this Red Bull clutch. I thought this reflight towards ramp was gonna be
anti-brain big. Oxy getting those two picks and then Rossi making this decision and I disagree with
the reswing. None of that matters though. Kessnet plays that so masterfully around the sign.
Right back into it. C9 now feeling the pressure truly for the first time.
The only thing going for Cloud9 here is that NB can grow harder.
He's playing a little more isolated toward this A side.
Can call in some reinforcements with Penny.
When this wall goes down, it is trouble.
Flash through and Poppins alone on the wrong side of the Vise wall.
Spotted now as the rest of the team filters in.
What is this exact? What the fuck are you even trying to do?
Explain to me what they're trying to accomplish here.
enemy. I mean.
But now every angle is being held and he teleports right into the waiting arms of Zelsis.
But if you're planning on taking A heaven control, why don't you just execute what's
full utils? If you know that's what you want, why are you going one by one? Yes, the sky
gets stuck. Sure. After that point though, after the sky dies.
And it's another beast of eternity before they head forward.
It's so difficult to deal with, and their teammates are flying off each other well.
Envy, she gets torn apart in heaven.
They still have another bot.
This is so gross.
They still have another chance to push to Notch Point.
C9 might have some ideas to fight over B-Main.
This is a new look.
Vic teleporting into the corner, and Envy are somewhat wary of that area of the map.
There's standard ground. No ult for C9 here. Again, free mid control. Are we going to do anything?
Okay, we're getting aggressive in B main, I see. That's really good. I like this a lot from
Vic, W. Great play. Fantastic play. Now, Neon can over rotate A. Hello? Why do we have 3B?
It is envy so much, it needs two on A and very likely
How are these two hooking up this whole day, man?
It's a two best choice to stall, can they hold firm?
Taking ones into the side already
Slow down for the time being
Good flash, the team 1 can't capitalize
Here he comes and he is out of justice!
Who is this guy?
Tears down three in the blink of an eye
Spike left bare
I don't understand anything anymore
And we are ignoring it that view is else's first excerpt so they have done is with 25 seconds left
There they are extra has stepped up in week two to give his team a chance
Three on two now
Kesson post forward. He wants this fight. I mean three is insane from Jordan
I just teammate if they can't win in this round the I mean he should get a raise
Jordan should get a race to make up for this round loss
I want to see, let's just not even judge, let's see the scaling that took place for
Jordan to get to leave there.
a site where there is no rotator they are literally double stuck in the A bomb site full advantage
for md if half of the exec is good let's see is any flash is there any we have anything any kind
of flashbang for this angle of ball is hard where is all of the utility in the one spot they can be
B.
Way to claim the credit, Penny.
OK.
Trying to take that one away from Zelsis.
Zelsis is just the man locking down
to these late rounds, always wanting to down the site.
But now, trying to challenge Bro T,
it's quick and a this time around.
Kesnit, he's just Google-stomping on the site.
Oh, my god.
Zeppel's going to do it by himself.
He's doing it by himself.
He's doing it by himself.
He's the, oh, my god, Jordan.
Take us home, buddy.
into the fray.
Zels is close.
This is the first time I've watched the game
and felt like both teams deserve to lose.
Thirteen-eleven for them.
But Cloud9 deserved to win it more.
They had too many chances to win this.
But at the end of the day,
it matters how you recover.
It matters how you step up.
Holy fuck, Jordan came up clutch at the end there.
Andy got a decent amount of entries on the top side as well.
He delivers for Cloud9.
And I'll map up in this series.
Oh, they won their map.
Tech defensive holes were just brilliant on that side and it really started with that B site anchor
First blood advice man all the momentum from envy it was him to stop the gas player them up player them up for me
Jordan for sure save them. He wouldn't be safe. What a weird match though bonus rounds one for both teams
This is a 71 lead at a time for cloud nine
Why are Envy execs like this?
Envy is the kind of team where on the initial, the step one of the exec, aka the actual pop
where they go through the Viper wall, or like if they pop their B main, if they don't instantly
get the kills, they get confused on what Util needs to be thrown for step two and three.
Like it seems like if step one, there's nobody there, they get confused.
you think this gameplay has been good that map or no like genuinely I'm asking
right you were talking about EMEA to any mistakis this is mistaki central
Now every round there's like an average of two to three mistakes by either team.
I literally said after this map ended Sam I was like both, this is the first time I felt
like both teams deserve to lose.
Just get rid of this map and then play the next two.
Vio two.
Just play the best of two.
It's insane Cloud9 couldn't close that out earlier by the way.
That they even let me get back into the game.
That should have been clean cloud nine win.
That's not updating for some reason.
All right.
After this game ends, we're going to do the unboxing.
Unless you want me to do it now, you let me know right now chat.
You want to do it now? Or no?
Now?
Okay, no problem. No problem.
Uh...
Y'all ready for this?
Alright.
Let's go.
Okay, so we are now apparently just fanatic fans.
A little tote bag if I may.
This is just...
Wait, why can't you guys see anything?
What are you talking about?
This is nice, no?
W?
A tote bag if I may?
Got it cool.
Crashies, Planks, chill bro.
Wait till you see the next thing. Y'all ready?
BANG!
I have to be a fanatic now. I have no choice.
I have no choice.
Nice or no chat.
I think that's sexiest fuck. The colorway is really nice. IMO. I like that a lot. So
that's, and this is new merch by the way. Next, bang! We got the in-zone earbuds. No
more using anything else. These are the ones I'm taking to the gym. The colorway is just
orange. Yeah, but I like it. Does this not look clean, though? Does this mouse not look
clean? Like you wouldn't use this? I would. So this is where we will be wearing to the
gym from now on. Yeah, I still go to the gym. Yeah, it matches my phone literally. And then
ready? This is the one I'm most excited for.
Look at this sexy ass thing.
Bang!
The lightest goddamn headset on the market, you hear me?
If I put this shit on right now, it wouldn't even know it's in my head, it's on my head.
Tell me Sony isn't good at for this, they just sent me this, out of the blue.
it now bro it's I'm gonna have tech problems I literally can't I know I'm
gonna take forever to set it up my wires are gonna be all screwed up and we're
gonna have tech issues you begged for it I did not beg for it they literally sent
it should we just do a giveaway chat should I give it away and then last but
not least more fanatic merch
bang
That's the mousepad design.
Wait.
You all see it?
That's clean, no?
Tell me that's not clean, like actually.
You guys can say hashtag, add all you want.
Can I have it? No.
Don't be crazy. It's mine. It's mine.
Okay, be honest what out of all of this would you naturally use no questions asked
The mouse, huh, okay low key for me, I think my favorite is the headset
That's clean no
God damn
Now, come on, son.
Let me stop real quick.
That is nasty, bro!
So small? It's literally the exact same size as my current mousepad.
Maybe it looks small on camera. It's not small.
The regular size mousepad.
That looks like crashies.
Do you think this is Austin? Do you think this is Volkvoster or is this Austin?
Let me move the camera.
That's nice. Okay, let me put the... let me...
Let's start using this one.
Let's just use this. Let's get used to it a little bit.
That's easy. Missed my first sub. Sorry, Spooky. Thank you for this sub. I appreciate it. Thanks for the zero.
Alright, that's it! That's it. My favorite is that I said I will be using all of this tomorrow.
Uh, tonight. Is there any packs tonight? We're gonna go tonight.
W don't know. Shout out to Nzone. Shout out to Sony. I appreciate you guys. Thank you.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. For the W merch.
I want to do a giveaway. You gotta figure out how though. We actually have to figure out how. You guys deserve it then.
I'm not trying to scan anybody. I'm not trying to scan a single person. I'm just telling you how it is. I'm just trying to do a giveaway. I just don't know how to do it best.
package that's for me I think they did a good job but I do want to do it get away
saying that they have some switch for this the new sony and the stuff I did I
thought that that first snap was gonna go now I'm thinking maybe envy have a
little bit more tricks up their sleeves they're cooking they're cooking
they're cooking maybe right this company is so good they just said they should
I just said it to me woke up one day it's the packages arrived
that if you're an envy fan and you are on pins and needles,
hey, maybe you can breathe a little sigh
really frown, getting ready for a cold bottle, what?
I swear to God, I didn't.
Okay, let's watch this.
Oh, that's awkward.
In any effort by these players,
regardless of how good they are,
did try to make a brand
when there's so much negativity revolving around them.
This was part of a one versus 20 event we held with LS,
a strategic consultant and lead content creator
with FlyQuest, discussing the problems
with North American League of Legends.
Was Nick's hot take really that hot, though?
The problem isn't just the tone of the broadcast
or the fact that there's a competing narrative.
It's good that there are competing broadcasts
with the mainstream.
In theory, that should be an incentive for Riot
to produce high-quality broadcasts
to ensure that people want to tune in.
Instead, what has happened is the fact that Riot
can rely on big viewership numbers from co-streams
that's incentivized them to become stagnant
with regards to the quality of the main broadcast.
The problem also isn't the fact that tons of money,
millions of dollars in some cases were poured into these creator deals.
Players are not the only people who make an eSports community tick.
You have to be able to reach people and investing in creators who can take the
game's storylines and make something that brings them into the fold is hugely
important to building a bigger future for the game.
But that wasn't necessarily what was happening with creator deals in eSports,
especially in the early 2020s.
My name is Kelsey Remmage.
I am the senior marketing manager here at FlyQuest.
And before this, I was a talent agent in the eSports scene for about five years.
When eSports was kind of at its peak, there was a time where it was very popular to have
content creators signed to the eSports org to not only bring in followers, but increase
engagement, interaction with new fans, especially from that content creators community, trying
to integrate them over to the org's fans.
seems to be. Another excellent
Jay, Eggster is not on Vito, he looked really uncomfortable on that role and I think the
Phoenix is good on this map, I think the Phoenix is close to the Yoru and it brings back flashes
which they didn't have in their last comp so very happy with these changes for Envy and
now hoping for something a little stronger than their last profile, shall we? Yeah, they
are going to be starting out on the defensive side and what I'm really curious about is
Well, on defense, that's where Demon 1 is obviously going to be thriving on the chamber.
But because C9 had some experience playing with him directly on this map,
how much are they going to be able to read around where he wants to play specifically
once that operator comes into play?
Are we okay?
Someone's excited!
Someone's excited! I love it!
Are you not excited?
I'm excited. I just, you know, I hope that wasn't one of our players.
Okay, good, good, good. I am excited. So here we go.
They've got a death wall for C9 to start towards A main.
As Envy was looking to trap play in mid, off the chamber.
Well, Poppin is a little bit left to his own devices here.
Slyther's back towards Secret.
C9 have taken their time for now.
Envy ready to pop on out from the smoke.
There's that first Phoenix Flash, then Zelsa's packing.
But Oxy again to strike first.
Oxy for a couple now, just rinses through this Envy lineup.
And now down to a one-on-three for Rafa, I'll stream her. Sorry.
I see a timing with the drone is there in his face, and the setup is very strong for C9.
Two different angles to swing off the player on site.
Well, he knows where Penny is at least. Don't know if that's going to help him.
Was the exit good? Exit must have been good, right?
That's a decent enough start, but immediately the counter flash, and C9 take a back-to-back opening pistol.
Yeah, real nice from them
Oxy, another big pistol
Whoever loses this game is essentially just done for the season. There's no recovery
Team dead
We're on still waiting, thank you for the series
C9 continue to play in these post plans. I think that was an angle where envy were getting in to some round wins that even
They're down in numbers. Oh boy
It's just such a good counter
That's just that clean you got two orbs, that's his job your imagination is a week
That's pretty good, that's true
Hey, do we get in our allotted? Wow Phoenix has so few orcs.
Are you scared of Penny Vies? I get it.
I just fulfilled the allotment. There we go.
I promise not to say that again.
Catch me if you can. Thanks for the 10 gifted.
Thank you. Should I pull a stand?
Whoa, you just gifted me 10.
Suits, where right now?
Thank you for the 10, bro. I appreciate it.
I mean the problem is no matter how much of a lead Cloud9 can get here, I do not trust
They have not earned my trust because they simply in the mid-round find a way
to
Lose one by one rounds
The peak one by one somehow still
Breaking this chamber trip will be a priority and we haven't won a game since they dropped inspire is that actual fact
There's no way that's back. It was just here. It's just cat focus their attention. So it's gotta be cat
Now other things have noticed poppin did go ahead and get the round three Odin. That's holding down the line over on a
Actually down into be long
That's great space to take especially right when they played two games. Oh, I thought I played a little bit more
Oh, yeah, that makes that makes sense actually, so is this the third game
He's playing today! He is playing today!
I saw him playing Phoenix in Rek yesterday as well, on this map.
I
Think bad with envy the order to do inspire now or have nothing to do with that
Has that old online now and C9 go back into that a showing
Have some bodies here if they wanted to fight but take their time
Careful for demon one let's go chambers
This time he plays in front of it
The balls. Oh my god. Oh my god
They kill on Vic though. He has so much space by himself
And they know that majority of cloud 9 is in a name so it's likely gonna be an A exactly one lurker
Actually, they don't know that because this guy seems like not aware of that
I also like to see them wasting no time but they killed the lurker so I'm confused. Do they think vise is lurking D?
Using the rounds you get it. You want to be refreshing that as much as possible
Get two three of those in a half probably. All right, this is if you're getting three, that's good
It's just not winnable. If you're doing really good, there's a world you can even get more can't say that unless they go street
It ain't stick kill disaster
Which this astra would never fight for anything cuz they're going in
And he's just face up one of these lines
That's gonna be against round is delivered
They have wouldn't need to wait there mid-running beat chapter mid-running beat. Oh my god, Cobb nine to 15 seconds
It's a
Perfect play here, though. They will get bummed down, but Rossi won't die for free
Taking his time
Spike planted a good angle for Rossi. No one to shut him out of the chain league all played
Well played from Rassi.
Clearly well played.
Really well played.
Why play in the open? Because I think they thought that Rassi had an area.
Or he's backhauled but then that plant makes Rossi if he's backhauled white sword
You know, so the plant wasn't not that idea was fun Rossi just outplayed them
now but it would be a very early time out sent in by Emmy
not enough money to really play into this next round but clearly he has some
ideas now at dealing with what they just got face down with him.
Oh he did die from Heaven. Did he get spanned though or was he just like in the open like his leg was showing or something?
I think they were trying to hide from Heaven.
Well they might have one more rifle round out of demon one it's gonna start being off-city once he gets
I thought it was by Pillar, like, like...
Maybe I'm trippin'.
It looked like they were trying to play it for Pillar.
Like, on to Pillar.
He was Pillar, but he got spammed, right? I still think that's understandable at the end, so...
He wasn't trying to...
He was trying to bait out a backhaul peek.
What makes this composition so tough to play against?
Well, like, you got to spam from Heaven.
Just to make intentional choices about what space you're actually fighting for
and knowing what you're giving up is really tough.
I don't think that's terrible.
That's the balance. C9 will have to strike here.
Okay, heavy mid for C9 now.
There's just a bunch of stingers in Heavens.
Half by.
And a lucky four oxy this time.
Working quickly.
I mean, Demon 1 is just taking so much space.
Last round he had all those mids.
You're going all the way.
This round he has all of A name.
Poppins like, really?
I don't know about that one
Yeah, and T. I spoke so they get it on and so it comes to a screeching halt no neon
No gas no speed no way to really advance forward
Especially with that's a drone being sent out from the wall
And it doesn't quite have the juice to spot these two players feeling in right behind it
You're perfectly happy to play mid this way when you have rifles
Oh my god, look at this read though. They just know it's me. Wait, they're second guessing?
The player should be fine though here. Unless X-Resee instead does.
Yeah.
Okay.
Okay.
The challenge from Vic finally delivers something for Cloud9, but in three rounds he and we have lost to two players
Brutal stuff they are cooking them right now
Looking confident in the fights reacting really well to where C9 is going
This one was a bit cold just trying to get a human kill with the shotgun
Late run entering is nice for Remdi
find a lot more discipline in this map not giving these fights in the mid-round
once they have any advantage so this is now the round that the time out once
focused on how do they find positions they haven't explored B yet okay tail
for pressuring a main while they walk B oh no they're making it was B
taking noise a main and B main at the same time see how C9D construct this round
chamber still has all of a main so this is a problem already
they have to find a way to push him back here
for this round to be like at all balance
or a little bit in favor of c9
if chambers never gets pushed back here
these guys can just rotate however they want
3v5 that's such a big kill though damn I wish they'd just explode it off that
You can chamber it back off. It's a good call
Just see the not committed peaks not committed enough
I don't know
Now into a two on four
One now a chance at this round, but he died there team seconds left
I'm not sure how quick can Zelsus get over there less than 10 seconds now
It is going to be down to the wife
There is any pressure on the site. He's too slow. He took out his gun
And lost the way you're taking out your gun there. There's no way you have to just be hop around
going down you thought there might have been a chance but not to be at the end of
the day seen I only strayed through with one gun I mean the round is probably
still lost to be fair to them but yeah rating not giving anything in the mid
round you heard that calm check-in so she's saying wait they might repush they
killed the Astra Street and did it insta rush me that's a little insane to me
considering they saw the double art setup there's likely one guy aiming on
that kind of setup. So if you kill the Astro down street why not just insta rush the...
You have enough intel I feel.
I'd say it's not. It's not. They had enough info to make the decision that there's 3A.
Very obviously 3A in that setup.
Excerpt, a big problem in backhaul has somehow escaped to the time being.
Stuck inside of the site, but there's another guy there.
They have to, there's someone's in the smoke right?
They have to.
They must.
I'm waiting for his moment.
Forced back onto his shorty.
I'm going to fight it!
I got to get up all the way down to the top.
Fall down fast.
They used everything.
They shot, they used everything in this round.
I'm going to hold you on sight.
And he now went to a pop-in.
Lay down some fire.
Big round, big round went reals.
It is all over the place and I can't hold it.
Oh my god.
That's a lot!
Oh my god.
That's the cast!
Oh my god!
Oh my god, that many ults to lose!
Who do you think of the Prime?
No, that is an unacceptable round boss. That is it. That is sad
C9 yet to find the answer
They used everything to try to win that rounds and lost, you know at least feigning presence over towards a but
Maybe the fast rounds just
Could be an idea so early
Spam
These shoes you're pretty likely to get a spike blend, but the retake with this comp is pretty good having neon having phoenix
You have a lot of tools to really pressure and because demon one is always on a forward line
Viselurk mid astra holding D 3a main push every round to remain in control this round though is this really good though
They're gonna push demon one back. Hopefully doesn't get a kill in that process
I'm not going to be so simple for C9. Okay, W
He doesn't even take the fight knowing very good so far from top 9. Probably the best round they played
They have B main push control. They have all of the middle
Envy now high low hold and they add in a
Again, they're so willing to leave a sole player on an extremity
I would like for them to do an a split which they are but it's more of like an a exec with double their power
And it's a good one to the utility is tough to deal with missiles take your time
one. Penny spots one.
Because it's really good trade and more players behind him from
Andy, they've got a wall and are you good with 30 seconds?
See nine tried to plant just on the other side. They get it
down, but at what cost?
Eggster you lose signs to now running it back for another. It'll
be demon one to capitalize and Zepa in a brutal spot. Look at
Long way to what a lucky charm it a sixth on the board for Envy
I'm so impressed that Envy win that brawl after the cosmic divide came up their players ended up a bit separated
It's one solo towards art ahead of the wall and Kesnick clank forward in this smoke. He's after catching him there
Despite that though
That was extra getting too well extra on lot of off angle for two
Back into the site is on point
Yeah.
Let's go!
Let's go!
Rossi getting vocal down there on the stage as C9 will call their second timeout of the
half.
More time for Rossi and C9 both to talk to their teams.
Yeah.
Rossi, I don't know how well this comes here on the broadcast, but he is the loudest guy
in the room right now.
He is yelling and has a lot of energy.
I mean, this is the same story, the same old story with the loud nine as last game, last
It's just advantages and then when they have disadvantages they find their way into the round because fucking envy
Both teams just are so good at giving up their advantages. It's like genuine like high-level expertise on giving up advantages
But that's such a thing
No one does it like these two teams
Just let it happen well
I don't know what you do here if you're in me cuz you call the timeout
And then your team lost four more rounds in a row.
And this time, it's an RG Incredible, thank you for the 10 minutes.
Oh my god.
Losing out to the re-taker, these guys.
Say swear he just gave them the tap.
They've never been successful.
Say fucking swear right now.
I mean, the guy's 4 and 6, it's not like he's taking over, but that's just because he's
been sitting on the X-Nummini, providing map pressure every single round.
Yeah.
And with C9, do those freezes.
And be in the last round just flying over.
RG Incredible, thank you so much.
Appreciate it.
Thank you.
Ready to come in and test these sight hits every time I
Do like the idea of just hitting into that chamber trying to run him over within the yard and see if you can get that pick early
It's so scary the majority force in hands round nine our first time so fucking hot in here
Real enough in his hands, let's see
Deals with the drone first now oxy sliding forward
Oh my Dino is gone!
Oh my god!
Alright.
I have a call for cloud 9, alright?
Okay.
Do you, when all else fails on Pearl, I'm gonna mute because the round's over, you start with mid-control, okay, you pressure art a little bit, then as soon as you know there's no like mid aggression from the defense side, then you do a street control, a full street exec, so smoke bottom street or halfway street, and full take this area called fish, okay, you take this connector area,
Once you have this, you can literally run a B-split or an A-split.
It's literally like having vents slash mailroom on-split, this area right here.
You take this, the whole map is yours to do whatever you wish.
That's it.
You have one lurker A, or B, and you have one lurker A. Passive, okay?
And that's it.
That's all you need to do.
You can have vise in part of the default, and you just have a wall at A main right here,
or here.
And you just default mid pressure art a little bit then just do street control
Are they gonna find them we give me a fight they did what happened they all passed away
sad that they passed well it might happen again he's passed away
and that's enough for Sina right here no thank you we'll leave that last round
was it was enough
actually trying to he pulled back into art a little bit
Sina they're making a lot of noise very early into the round but
Does Cloudman have a Street Default, do you think?
Foxy's down on 8 HPs, Elsa's already out of it.
Every time C9 takes base, they don't actually have presence elsewhere on the map.
So the way that Envy rotates is they just encircle that area
and take them apart.
I feel like C9 is never actually giving threats of a push on the other side throughout this game.
It's hard too when there's threats of Alps and whatnot.
Yeah.
And a lot of times I can make your lurker slow down or less confident to step out into the open
That's why this comp is so tough to deal with the permutations
What do you mean they did it? They did not do it
You saw I think it was round three they had him solo peeking mid
But it was a trap play with the Phoenix behind ready to flash
Did it?
Sometimes he will actually be alone, but stop to know
Little peek of him after Moxie
And from given one to instantly snapping away
I mean he can only do so much right?
get the spike down. Hey, I'm just fucking over, bro. Just move on to Mapuri at this point.
Maybe on Hayden, we'll be able to mid-round.
Okay, just do Street Default for the last two rounds. That's all I ask.
Pressure back, Art. Make sure there's no mid-fight. Street Default. Take fish.
After that, I don't care what they do. Actually, I don't. I don't even care if they lose the round.
It feels like a different team than the one I watched last week when they were on curl.
I mean, to be fair, it is the most different cost you could get.
Yes, but it is so much better.
The valued exter is getting on this beat.
I feel like I'm not asking for too much.
They tried it, but lost one in the process.
You weren't watching.
That's unrealistic.
I'm watching every round.
On the neon as well.
Maybe it's having a great time.
How could they have lost one in the process?
I wish I could hit that time out, but maybe I don't.
Besides the bonus round, if you're talking about the bonus round,
That was terribly executed in Fish
where they got killed 3 times
because we didn't buy an extra
I got a cap
Oh my god, they died
Oh my god, it's perfect
I lost, he's dead
He's gonna be here in just a matter of seconds and he is one kill in and out
Highway bandit. It's big. This eggster is sent packing big. No other ults
This is a cloud nine round all day
Not comfortably planted yet oxy for three
Oh
Seen like waiting arms cloud nine finally you got you good actually my oxy there man take a round
It's feeling like game one again where one team comes out to a huge lead is in dominant control of the map
And then it's a couple rounds of growths. It's we finally killed even one on the TV
It's oxy getting this beautiful by the way entry on the slide
And now suddenly there's a chance if they ate for win a pistol this game is far from over
They need this round as well any ults. Yeah neon ult astral wall
That last round started by shutting down demon one. Yeah. Well, he finally, you know an op on the survey and think
Oh, it's gonna be chamber, right? No, my sova has it
Lovely. Okay. Big clerk a or sorry. I'm good. Everyone else. Amen. Just like that. Hey, really see nice. You have no trouble sitting this site
Now we'll see about that. Oh
They're not they're not even leaving one person aiming or they are they're leaving by the main thing. They're art split that orb
I'm down. Just got an ultimate
Yeah, I'll see a penny and big now what there's on the board
So a main there's a decent map control honestly they pressured a main they pressured mid now
They're gonna pressure be main and they're gonna are a lot or a exact
I'm down an idea
Terrible at all. It's exactly what's seen. I'm not great. Not terrible
I know because it likes to quickly rotate off that presence like right now and he has no idea just a drone in
where, I'm going to score
access there to the best
science you and saw there's no
one down the long he does not
play a passive anchor at all
the fours and the is now
motion to bring three players
on to almost four
this is so slow
this could be ugly
less than 30 seconds on the clock
as they're trying to take some
time to take your time you have
to take your time getting down
very good exact go in and they have some room to play with behind this wall and be
waiting for a moment to slide on through that'll be Kessler first
hey that's how you execute a bomb site
who cares if they have floor there
first time one of those steam fights has gone the way of cloud nine and now Rossi
this job has been to hold B to play these late retakes
the
C9 not allowing him a chance
to look at the head of the U-S of the
Happy!
Such similar scenarios where we get here in both games.
Credit to Cloud9 for piecing these rounds together.
Take us home, Francis, for this one.
Zepa gives them a round. Is it enough for a comeback? We'll find out after this.
I feel like C9's only winning on hero plays as long as they are able to win.
That was genuinely a good exit. I was saying it the whole way through.
They waited for their art players, didn't panic.
Because of the counter util they knew MV was ready for this hit
But they waited for their art players came in together
Waited for their like flood resaic didn't come they got the bomb down and then just played the post plan correctly
Even if they had lost that round I would have said club man played it well
genuinely
bounce a boing boing boing boing
Was you ever accepted desk job? I mean I would but at the same time I think I'd only do it
one time just to feel it out see how it feels but it's likely I would probably just be too blunt
about certain things and I don't know if people would be okay with that like I don't know how
much they would limit me. I'm just saying what I want to say. Which team has impressed
you more between these two? The most impressive team to me right now in America is Asfurea
by far. But between these two, um, I was really impressed with the aspect this.
By all accounts Mimi, the big switch up in composition has paid off for them on the defensive
side. Now they need to see that carry through to attack into C9. And these comps also very good
on attack. It's overwhelming to hold the site against the Phoenix and the Neon. They have great
tools to fight early first she was disappointed you more cloud nine a little bit for sure
they should have closed out split years ago go for this neon phoenix they're making like very like
for how badly envious playing cloud I should have destroyed them on split this map is slightly
different and he's playing good they're rotating well chamber also has control of most of the map
most rounds
3b main control given astros fully they're fully gambling right now
But they are ready to over rotate a or b
Phoenix is fighting all these close corridors with the Flash. Street, art, can be very good angles for you.
Oh my, look how much space he's taken.
Now what? Now that that wall is gone and A is vulnerable, what do you do?
Okay, they draw a B main for info, but they're not fighting B main.
It's a good work from Rossi to shoot it down only reveals one player on this side
This wall being down should make cloud nine over sack a but it's not they know it's gonna be
I don't know how three players here to receive but the exegy power of this calm just off the dog dying
It's tough to hold against 30 seconds ago and we don't have too much left to work with if they want to break out of here
any chance for collab 9 to fight through.
Brand nearly went wrong for Envy.
They didn't have a second flash on the Phoenix,
so breaking the crossfire.
As they scale through the smoke,
awesome some problems.
Wow, that's just a brand-new go right there.
Yeah, on that.
They're seeing the scale back site.
They even won aggression and resins
in this piss-around as well.
So C9, even with three players stacked over there,
couldn't find the right...
I was like 9 and 10. I feel like even one down so many like big kills.
Like round winning kills.
Yeah, I mean they can just do whatever they want this round.
And they can do whatever they want this round.
getting picked up they just got a not over complicated they're chill and they
know there's no B push they know there's no a main push and they have all
the fish sometimes be the difference maker any call is good here once you
have this control clearly they don't want this one to slip away no they're
trying to sniff out a potential game with it contacted through and be rewarded
with a pretty easy a site peeing all the spots where C9 could be hiding if the
stack was on this side of the map because at this point you've seen and heard
nothing we've got to assume that one of these sites is gonna be firmly held by
C9 and then we have guessed correctly this time around oh listen all these
footsteps Rossi has complete he's about to actually farm control
wait what oh they're dying to bomb C9 something tells me they'll just wait
here let the spike take him in 30 or so seconds yeah you about I'd say with
with the time between rounds you've got 45 seconds to go grab a snack people okay
but you prefer watching alone because it'd be low key content if you watch the
it's gonna say if you like eco frags too you can stick around and that's
exactly what envy are gonna give us 10 to 4 now the lead yeah with that full
buy everyone on armor it actually means you're gonna be down to a couple
pistols likely on this round doesn't matter too much in the end we have 10
4 in a great position chalk thingy this is the round the absolute must release
their mouth to call on on the pistol it was all about envy they took every bit
of space they wanted a solo Phoenix 6b walking back in the street chamber
taking art I want to see a cod line that is more proactive at punishing those
kinds of place maybe a scent I love a scent but it's probably annoying it's
annoying to call on a little bit waiting and probably icebox actually right back
for that space immediately they give up the orb a set in icebox i feel like a lot of a lot of
things are out of my control weird things happen a lot more often oxy stunned up it hasn't been
cleared just yet he's still alive now taken out as end to go two for two in amane well five sunset
dude defense it was defense sunset to accelerate into the site because i hate that act to keep saying
themselves it has been able to get himself in there and get a kill through the smoke on top of it
That was he done that
Now a drone to as he steps back supports his teammates that closes in
The challenge and the shot connects out of
serious
Are you actually just not embarrassed quite honestly that could just be the game
It is the game demon one has been a beast today
I miss her an absolutely no exception. SuperZoosh pretty good on that main fight when you're Envy.
Just look at that reset. It's another here at the end to close.
It's so good, bro. He's just so good.
C9 know they got a force up. Everyone on Envy.
Like playing Waldo. It's good to see at least.
Maybe another chance to run.
Haven, I feel like there's going to be a banger map though for Decider.
Maybe you've steered clear from them this time around though.
The only thing that worked for Cloud9 when they last played Haven was the C rush.
And even that didn't work because they lost the 5v3 post plan.
Then you move up into street, X are just another drone I suppose this round is.
No one's going to get in a fair fight because it was right behind it.
It's sliding through everything
Did you get that all written down Mimi?
Yeah, I've got it. Okay. A lot of it was just Rossi. He is so vocal with this team. Yeah, but I think that the screaming is the secret sauce
You think so? Yeah. Yeah, that's what I think so. I feel so good. Come on guys, come on guys, just screaming at the end of the round
A little bit of chaos, but he did play this so nicely
Excellent entries out of that neon
We got you covered don't even worry about it
full blind and yet anything just yell other shit force their way in a PG once to PG now
it is started to fucking attack these guys man you're up all four to start attacking
them yeah I realized maybe not the best choice of word for buddy yeah well maybe this is
around the finish is it okay yeah I mean that would be running away
good setup for a fainting day the rest of these players were worried about a
flank coming back through they contact back through into mid did you attack
them at 12-5 okay this has to end here and some precious resources it was too
too long ago so let it go, guys.
Like, is it gonna be in my tombstone, 12-5?
And now there's thorns on top of it, too. This isn't looking good, is it? Down to 15 seconds and you're gonna need some kills
We're gonna need them quickly and it's not gonna happen when they're split up on opposite ends of the wall
What's that? It's Cloud9 is capable of actually doing that.
We're gonna go into round 18 here, Mimi. Yeah. Here we go. Just type it.
I do remember that round you were talking about. This feels a lot like it.
Actual drones, man. Actual drones.
Okay, that's that's show they can afford to wait out the clock on six more rounds. Yeah, I'm hoping they don't find
Actually, you know, it's crazy. Is I genuinely believe this comeback is possible
Just run it down to the wire
Anyway, that was a rough round
I mean not having any map presence towards the eye
I would have liked to see them leave an in bed on a and be willing to pivot back towards there after the
RG incredible, thank you for a 12 kisses on top of the 10 you already get
I'll give it twice in one day live afterwards. Okay. Thank you
By the way 10 seconds in and where our envy all the way through mid with this
unsupported
My word stepping very weird of you
their own deaths. Eggster gets two kills. That's about what we were boys. And Eggster
really has been a bright point, especially here on Pearl. Three on five retake now.
This should be it for Envy. They've great positions. Okay, it's not possible. They still
have utility. This is not possible. Stuns into backside. Oxy's been dealt with. Just get
rid of Pearl. I just fucking banned this map, bro. These guys are so unimpressive on this
It's sad.
Lyingness.
Clean.
I actually think Hayden is going to be a banger, though. Truly.
Did he actually reveal Regina himself? Yeah, I mean, he's playing great. He's genuinely playing great.
He played well on Omen, well enough.
And then he played well on Phoenix. I don't know what he's going to be playing on Hayden, though.
Any guesses?
Influences to look at all the players have no I think this time you should get all of those keys
And I'd honestly love to see them play something similar
Thank you from it because see you nine are going to have to make some tackle one enjoyer
Thank you so much
You did oh my god
Why so many gifters? Thank you, buddy.
You did get 20. You actually did. And I missed the first time because I'm a dog shit shooter.
I'm sorry. Conceal thinking of the time.
Why do you retweet that? You guys should be like, no, you're great, man.
Let's just watch this video. Just watch this video. This video is also just shitting on us.
And a lot of orgs really didn't utilize content creators to what they had their potential to be.
Maybe it was more, you know, we're signing them.
We do, they get a five-gifted.
We're signing them because they have a million followers,
not knowing where those come from.
No more gifted guys, please, seriously.
Followers came from, what those followers really gravitate towards.
And so, just because you signed the biggest content creator in the world doesn't mean
that you're going to get the return that you intend for, especially for the amount
of money that Orgz were paying for these creators.
It just turned into something where, you know, you'd get an offer for half a million
dollars for a three-year deal, for example, and the guideline...
Sign me up!
Signs of what the deal is going to be was very loose.
It was like, stream for us, throw branding on your stream, and then obviously your fans
are going to come over and be Team XYZ's fans because you have that branding up.
When in reality, most of those fans didn't translate over, and then when the Crompton
creator left the org, so did all the fans. So what, you just wasted half a million dollars
on something that you could have utilized better?
That certainly does not have to be the case with Con-
She looks pissed.
Is this like a personal experience?
Ten creator esports deals. Look no further than Sentinels and Tarik, one of the most
popular co-streamers in the Valorant space. Tarik brings the perspective of a former
CS pro and is genuinely invested in both his team and the game. It's the kind of arrangement
that benefits everybody in the space. Fans of Tarik are very likely to become fans of
Valorant as a result and vice versa. It's a symbiotic relationship. In that one versus 20,
Nick was debating with LS, who both co-streams our League of Legends games and works as a strategic
consultant for our League team. LS made some important points in favor of the co-streaming system.
My view is, we knew that even in 2020 that the average viewer of LCS at the time, LTA now,
was over the age of 21. And we know this because one Riot had the data, and then two,
Bud Light was the sponsor. Now everyone is going to be 27-28. People just don't want to tune in to watch
kids much younger than them play video games anymore. People don't want to tune into the same
repetitive matches being played, which is why I pushed against or pushed for Fearless, Iron Man,
etc. I think there's a lot more that's going on that doesn't have to do with co-streaming.
I think if you remove all the- Well, okay, here's my question, okay? You got- Maybe
somebody can answer it because I'm a little confused. So a lot of the viewership that would
would be going to the main channel is going towards
co-streamers, I understand that.
But viewership is still viewership towards the game,
so why would sponsors be backing out of being a part
of the game that has high viewership,
if viewership is increasing?
They don't make money, what do you mean they don't make money?
Sponsors of individual teams aren't making enough money
They would sponsor the streamer instead no yeah, just sponsor the streamer at that point
it. The costumers right now in the world, it does not mean that everything returns
to the broadcast, like a fraction would return. So the teams are inherently losing value.
Does co streamers exist?
So say if co streamers didn't exist and the main channel had all the viewership, how does
that help the teams more?
I don't get that.
That's just, that's nothing to do with anything.
Like I feel like those two just don't relate to each other.
Adrien, thank you for the five gifts, man.
Thank you.
It helps Riot, not the teams.
Wouldn't higher viewership also help Riot in general?
Like, the teams were never helped in the first place.
Almost every team was in the negatives
or breaking even anyway in eSports.
It's always been the case.
That has nothing to do with co-streamers, I feel.
Not even trying to defend myself or anything.
I'm just being objective, I feel.
You legit all tabbed during the break sponsor segment so the sponsors aren't getting their
screen time?
What?
How is this an argument?
If they made a deal with co streamers they would get that you know what I mean that has
nothing to do with this.
Like the okay say I am just give me a company I'm Walmart and I decide to sponsor team envy
okay I don't think I'm relying on co streaming numbers or even worrying about co streaming
numbers for that sponsorship like that has nothing to it doesn't relate at all
Like I feel like co streamers existing or not existing and we are still losing money on that
Or gaining money from the sponsor, but then the sponsor feels like what's the point?
Like I don't know how anyone makes money in the sport in eSports. I don't other than riot just paying them directly like I partner teams I'm saying
Unless you have a heavily marketable team that's also performing well, you will make
a good enough money to be able to maybe break even or be above even.
For example, teams like Sentinels, I don't doubt that they've made a good amount of money
because they've always had marketable rosters and they've done pretty well in the game,
like really well in the game.
So sure, but outside of that, most teams I feel like are breaking even or just losing
money.
That to me has not much to do with co-streamers.
That's just always been the case.
Is what I'm saying.
When it comes to co-streaming, the genie is out of the bottle and he's not going back
in there.
You can confirm LS's claim that audience numbers would drop by going to pretty much
any Reddit thread talking about co-streams.
Fans will say that they have no interest in watching games unless they're cast by somebody
like K-dral. But the reality is that the current economics just aren't working for anybody
other than a few huge creators. They aren't working for Riot. Can you explain why?
They aren't working for teams and they aren't working for the players, especially those
outside of the tier one system. Hell, they aren't even really working for most creators
who aren't named K-dral. Here's Team Liquid's coach Spawn at another 1v20 debate liquid
held. But my gut feeling is that the 100,000 people that watched K-dral used to watch the
main broadcast and now don't watch the main broadcast which is terrible for
sponsorship. All K-dral does is screech over every single ad role being played
like I don't even know how Riot is monetizing this shit anymore and he
used to be on the... So Riot makes less money because more of the viewership is
going towards K-dral and therefore Riot doesn't have enough money to pay their
partner teams. Is that what it is? Is that their relation there?
More money to streamers, less money to Riot, means less money inherently to who Riot is
paying which is the Orcs to be in their franchise system.
Broadcast and left the Broadcast because Co-Stringing was more popular.
You're literally proving my point that we are missing the STA talent of the Riot Game
broadcast because it's better to be the coach.
Well fuck, just be better then!
I think that we're in a situation now where Riot have to make it in that positive because
otherwise the ecosystem is absolutely cooked but I think that even if you ask the people
at Riot if they could put Pandora back in the box, majority of people are putting that
box closed instantly.
That's not really how Pandora's box works, like she was never in the box, she opened
it you know.
You know what? Never mind. Spawn is right that we need to make a world where co-streaming and content creators can continue to thrive within and alongside these analogies.
But how do we build it?
The creator system is dying. There are a couple creators who are long-lasting and are doing the work, but those creators are making pieces of content that are new and people haven't seen before.
You don't see the same React creators persisting today. A lot of them have died out, have moved on to different projects,
But, you know, we see people like Grim who have been in the space for a very long time, ever since, you know,
calling you out. Yeah, like I used to make, you know, you guys are right.
I used to like, Chad, I used to make like, guide videos and like, fuck, I used to grind back in the day.
Used to play Valorant, like all day.
And now, I've changed.
I
Literally changed a big thing
I'm looking to improve between maps is how they're pushing demon one off lines in the mid-round
I think that far too often he was allowed to sit on an extremity
Which give free rotation to Kessit to be wherever he wanted on the map as fast as possible
Those are the focuses but it is the same comp. They just face it is a map
I don't know, man, this is so fucking boring if you're not playing for anything, dude.
I have no desire or chance of going back into tier one.
Why would I need to play ranked to improve my game?
And I dare you to say for fun.
Throwing down the fast lane, but it's all a ruse as the rest of the team steps in mid
But envy of two players in mid trying to get this catch it happens at every single point on the map
Cutting down cloud nine. What was cloud nine?
And taken down
In that kill too, we had an astra star
We had a Phoenix mall like it's just madness that he had to deal with
I think the decision-making here from demon one is excellent
I didn't understand still I watched the replay I still don't understand what what
How they started the round
They're not only cold here together it's still then they have the backstab at the end
Neon fake a long rest rush beam also they're gonna do like a B pop off of him making was a okay
Tough way for things to start for c9. Yeah, after the blowout
And it might get even tougher
This is a judge and it has been past
About five seconds there don't get bonus here. I'm gonna start. We'll just go watch the video gun in like two minutes. I
Respect that. Yeah, you know just run it down get it over with oh and I guess it is probably gonna have
He's old for the boat. That's not concerning at all. Yes for any of those counting
Poppin is wondering when his team is gonna ask him to show up
No desk no kills no assist like he just live in his life his little so the life on Haven thrown the dart down a lobby
That's not been where C9 have attacked. He's thank you. That's your one
I'm facing these compic sales at fighting out of garage with the Phoenix flash the chamber you get free contact
I didn't break a turret though.
That turret needs to be broken.
C-pop!
Flotman is known to lose these kinds of rounds.
Later you take Envy, you know this.
Oh my god, that's funny.
Oh god.
Oh god.
They're attention.
It's that kill?
No trade?
How is that even happening?
That's where you're at.
Envy have taken the C site and C9 are running through the garage with the bomb to get out
and Poppin is still waiting for them on the pivot into B. It is an execution.
Your Cloud9 is fucking-
The reaction time is from Envy there.
And I'm not talking about the flicks.
I'm talking about the positioning.
We're so good.
There's absolutely no fear at fast flooding.
Look at these from Kessnik.
These teammates are pressured in garage.
He's immediately sliding into a smoke, giving them the chance to refight.
And if the pivot comes through, Envy is ready again.
Yeah, I'm...
You could see from Vixen...
Do they not realize that their season is on the line here?
Their entire next three months is on the line on this game.
Because we're not playing like it.
There's no chance there.
And Lucky for Poppin, he got on the board.
comes in he's the guy that's shutting down that hit into the site so a second
bonus round taken away here
if i roughed on it it doesn't matter when eggster's there to back him up
yeah those two players walking together i mean the son of this is awesome
he'll be able to get through if he dies
oxy
head round over through the start he just gets through
How's this even possible that'll make it pretty they're getting played with
Vic recovers the phantom, but at the cost of his position
If you get to kill he has the old does he escape?
I have to win this round all the way over onto the A side
He has a chance now. He has to win here
We'll be here quite quickly
Vic reposition short short. He's looking the wrong way the wrong way. It's so fast out of poppin
showing up in the right position back to back rounds to catch C9 in transition.
And that hope that was there for just a moment plucked away.
Nice try for Vic.
It's tough to read that Poppin is going to be in that position.
Early on I think he takes that lift on me a little too early.
His teammates haven't actually provided that much pressure on the other side.
As soon as he falls, Cloud9 feel like they have to accelerate that play.
straight into the meat grinder so finally rifles first four rounds this
game it was a blitz it was fast here's your chance if you're C9 to reset and
try to handle some control that can of course I can't help but then this is the
only chance either team has of getting a window split when does he use it cuz
again it's just gonna be off the rip yeah cuz out of garage is demon one so
Are you kidding me, man?
Are you kidding me, man?
Are you joking?
Meanwhile, Demon 1...
still recoverable.
Nah, he's clear.
He's not.
Because while there always is, the understanding how to play the map has been there but Zepa
tried two more kills.
He has to win.
And he knows who the guy is, but that's where he plays.
He's noisy.
Zepa is primed and ready.
And in Kesnit's eyes he could be anywhere now.
What do you mean?
He chooses the close fight.
He chooses and comes up with nothing.
Kesmit is unstoppable and Envy have their fifth.
The rumors of Ranker's death may have been overstated.
Hell yeah, they're fighting you at the beginning of the round.
They're running at you after that.
They're almost throwing a 3v1, and they're hitting the nicest shot possible to win it.
I mean, this is the Envy they got promised to us when they ascended, and sure.
It's with different players.
It's with different agents.
But this is them delivering on that conceit.
This is joy sapped out of the C9 camp after a 13 five map two and now a five
oh start to the decider map here.
And we talked about it before the series began.
Uh, what are those guys?
So how about like sports channels need to buy rights to stream a game?
the costumers maybe need to pay a small cut over fees to be able to stream the
game that way right gets their money and the streamers make money to other
gaming or being overall popularity because of the streamers no I don't
like that G2 and MIVR to go in this group for both of these teams I don't
think either of them would be would be favored in those matchups say this is
important for playoffs I think is really an understatement I know that I see
It's always been the team that are the groups I get every year coming from your novel story has been choking in
I have that thought too when they were explaining that it's never been losing here. It's never been losing early
The first time they backslid in years, and it doesn't happen sure and it is still early days, right?
But when there's only five weeks early days, so they're still catch up on you
You'll find days. Who's not that early after all attacks on your down five is your own man
So all I guess just go back to your see hits that's all you guys could do
Mid-rounding is just out of the question. I mean he has you by the balls turn in their homework in the third half yet
Maybe this will be the difference of around Zepa has hunters fury in the back pocket
It's so interesting to me that demon one is playing the chamber so often now and it's basically never often 13.0
Will be an eye-opener brother. They have a third eye
What do you mean eye-opener all three eyes are wide open. They cannot believe what they're trying to see.
Another entry. Another entry because they're with...
Thankfully I sure threw a little bit there.
Okay they have these for free. No real resaic detail yet.
Oh that's big. That's big turnip.
Okay, big for him. That's big.
Okay, big info here.
Unlusable, someone say.
Especially because of where Zepa is.
Oh my god, he had to use the ult.
We're nervous.
Oh, he was around. Zepa just goes around for free.
Finds himself in exactly the right position.
And doubtful that Rossi has much of a chance at all here outside of playing for the exit, which he can't even find!
Through the roaches of Zelsis, C9 get themselves on the board.
Really nice from Zelsis.
And he's gotten away with murder so far this game, being able to fast rotate and flood into sites without much utility.
Well, the ult at its job that delayed the retake, which allows up and against your free post, so whatever.
Can't even hate it on it too much.
They're 5-0 down, whatever.
Streamers means more eyes on them than negotiate with sponsorships.
Yeah, I mean, that's the part that's really confusing.
It's mainly because the main Riot channel, the VCT channel, when big matches are going on,
They don't get as many viewers and that's where all the sponsors want their
Labels and stuff to be so what they could do is make
A little bit more challenging. I don't know how like coach ringers and help right back in there's a trap like with the flash
Coming back into this is a huge
Try to go for the double face
Zelsus not much
Why are you still yapping about this motherfucker because it's interesting
C9 it's great that you have the a sci-fi guys your spike is in mid right now
You're gonna have to go all the way back to a cell window
The question is can celsus get the backstab?
Choose not to go to be instead finding this player on see but still the spike is there. How they're gonna god
There's tiles, but even then he's mowed down through them
It's on you again, Joe this the sprint down over towards C and he should be able to plant this spike
But it is not comfortable by any means eggs are still as flashes tools, but it's elses it's gonna come down as elses once again
Instead and be choose not to go to garage
Going all the way down. Maybe a corner on the cash streamer stream with the official sponsors
Yeah, I mean that's one way to do it oxy holding because we are watching a Vct
Program low too. You need perfection. You should be representing those sponsors as well. It makes sense
That's the first
Off to a crisp start if they want that to be if they want to if they want to if they want there to be a console
I mean it's gonna be the best one not a bad idea
I'll do a three there into the rounds
Just an absolutely mental round that again C9 have to get a little creative and they actually managed to win this round
It's a three on five win that Jordan is bringing them back single-handedly bringing them back
Two rounds in a row he's had max impact kills swing back in and die
the difference here is again capitalizing on that chaos you saw the
getting this killing sea was so big
from oxy on the other side towards a yep this time they saw them overfighting
they took the space they needed and they were rewarded see nine never get the sea
site without zelsis finding that time
and so for the first time you already have the sponsors on screen while you
watch sometimes I also have to watch another video or something so maybe
somebody in the chat said like you do all tabs so like sponsors don't get the
viewing time or whatever but I can like enforce it I guess if it's like an
important thing for them or they are losing money or something.
5-9 don't scale off of pushing him off of the line, it's that they work back towards mid.
Have to take this one in steps.
Yeah, JBM, like that.
Envy really moving around on the map right now, a little bit in transition with only
one player over here on C, it's Kesnick.
C-split, but it's a little disjointed.
And what can he do?
He has stuck out in the open and he is left-hanging.
Are they gonna try to flood still without without the site
Set up. Oh my god. They are poppins is the machine
Yeah, right. What drugs is that goes in one after another?
It falls apart
So XE finds himself with four kills into the round
And here's for a little bit more dive and dash around but shut out of it eggs don't give him a chance
trying to play the spoiler now well played extra see switches over to the
Phantom and carries it on out I'd like to see him die here get an orb man that's
rude yeah he's Phoenix that's a person
kills you better unbelievable yeah how about how about we look at we we have we
dream bigger meaning okay dream for a kill not the death or make a dream for
If you guys see that's good, okay good enough for me
Okay, maybe you have to dream bigger right if you doubt him if you if you set those
Excavations come back here really exceed them still it's outside though. They need at least six rounds
This round I think is easy what was missing from C9 in that one
And I'm not talking about the 4k from oxy instead. I think the crux is it is step one push demon one off the line
and stop to wait for Envy to overload him.
They're so proactive at running around the map off any pressure.
They're so willing to give you fights
that if you push their extremity information away,
you wait for them to make that mistake
and then you make your informed decision.
But if streamers get more views than Riot
and the brands know it,
they would rather sponsor the streamer
than the Riot themselves,
which lowers the money for Riot.
I mean, that hasn't been the case yet.
at least
Not to the extent that it might be for like League of Legends or something
Carter on this map to not leave gaps than it was on Pearl
One chamber trip on Pearl is basically a quarter of your information. Yeah dealt with on this map
There's so many more angles you can contact up through and find those gaps as enemies big time rotating and especially as soon as demon
One ever gives up that forward line, which the round started with he got forced off of a main
That sort of sent in zone also is a direct partner of right before
Unclear as where C9 would be now in the of time not a good example
They've got every ultimate under the Sun except for demon ones now try to use that to get the ball rolling again
The fights were the key early game
Just give them that happen right?
rageband people streaming their game don't give him ideas bro
what have we got oh jeez right out of the envy timeout as well
when this round they're cooking when this round they're cooking money too
you know what don't worry about playing the slow map don't worry about finding the gaps
finding the most obvious save in the world
happy to see it two big rounds from oxy the 4k on the nc eco the opener on this
one as well
No, I have a perfect compromise to play here make it so I don't know
I'm just watching the main broadcast like
Show the sponsors and you're waiting for some always
If there's a sponsor second or slide over to see if I'm a little banner to put on our stream
And I guess hold on to their ultimate give it a go again in the next round
We're all watching the same thing. I think that's actually pretty
That's the easiest
Yeah, playing against a team that has so many tools at their desk. It's true
Like if we don't have the mainstream and we're not allowed to do this
That's true. I mean all the sponsors are already here, man. So what are we talking about, man?
We're fine, thank you for the problem.
I barely saw that, not going to lie until you guys said top right, I didn't see it either.
So the question from Envy is, how do you combat this when they're finding a gatch of play more forward than control over the map and have less confusion?
That's what C9's intentions are.
Or do you just make sure every line is held down?
Right now, it looks like they're duelists want to fight up into mid, that's a fast lane and a hunter's fury gate on full, on sentry!
And the backup is there too, beautiful work from Envy!
respect to Envy then. They re-aggress after losing the aggressive round.
I got to respect it.
Get Oxy down to 19 HP.
There's only a matter of time before he's out of the equation.
You ask these silly questions like, is Envy gonna play slow?
Are they gonna do something different? No. It was a hypothetical, Mimi.
Okay, they're just gonna run it down and they look their best when they're doing so.
Second time they've run a place similar to this one, and the second time it's been effective.
Xergeting 2 is kind of insane though.
Like this should be traded instantly.
I don't even know if you should get one there.
Do these casters hate each other?
My brain?
Okay, no offense to any of the castings because this happens a lot, but my brain just teams
it out so I don't know what they're hearing them say.
trying to escape as he calls in for some support.
Now the Hunter's Fury is coming out of the C9 camp.
That's one out from Zepha.
No tactic following.
Oh god, oh god.
They're aware though.
They're aware.
Zepha's got him.
All the way through a short.
And C9 are looking the wrong direction.
Two players were holding him a penny.
It's out of the open.
Good god, man.
Egg sir just takes care of him with ease.
What do you even say to that?
It's the second round in a row.
I mean, Zepha did have it for like a second, then they let it go, and then the Viper took a spot, but we're holding it long, I don't know.
No qualms, I guess.
This is a very well played round from even one to fall back there, and then just 2v2 these guys?
They never expected extra there, they thought it was a free fucking trade.
Well, it's not that fast to look at this map is all momentum attack defense means nothing to say that
But the entire video game uses to every map despite playing champion. You know what I respect it
Okay, all right demon one just gonna do that right he can't run he's still the best
He still just has the greatest brawling within 15 seconds, how long is this cannot drive him
Can't be long at all. He's got this unfortunate position now
The shark circling over under one
Okay, it's over one. Oh my god. Inspired is just eating right now. No. No. No. Don't go one by one
How are they winning? Spike is still in mid-wind. No, I'm not gonna lose this bad
It's just not possible and thankfully Kesnit will put that final cherry on top.
So the third, eight, four, half of the series, this time, just all about Envy's aggression.
This was just, I mean, just sitting in my...
This is too clean, man.
Second.
Think about it, he put down Oxy as that.
He wasn't the first guy to die, Oxy was the second guy to die there, which means Oxy potentially had a chance to shoot.
Even Oxy wasn't fast enough to trade that.
That's enough to trade that.
I heard he plays ADS around here, he does.
He is a special player.
His team's up 8-4, let's see how this series ends.
Defying legacy, thank you for finding me.
Yeah boy Dre, right employee, why you guys keep saying that?
Is he here?
Thank you the problem
Inspire saying anything he's here, right wait you'd be making fun of me
Says something if you're fun not targeting
I'm fucking full vibe and bro fucking tired
Said I'm mad about if you're winning it bro, I've legit been smiling this whole time. Don't need to smile
can't show that you're mad you good or no I'm good I'm having a blast bro
he might have really called this exact comp go back in the vibe before the
series started and go back I love it's so this exact comp for them to play you're
clearly upset if anything I take my pride and I'm winning then they probably
do this is my idea bro and Kaz was it bro Kaz was in the chat when I said that
you're clear upset what the fuck are you talking about I believe in smiling on a
But flying together as a duo
Seriously, I think I'm giving my new hobby feels good to watch Envy play like Envy
So one double to lose to fight together to set the tempo
Well, we've been waiting for are you ready for a little bit more? Yeah, cuz we've got a whole half
I'm looking forward to potentially a whole half. We'll see we'll see how Envy ish
They can play this one. I don't know that's a word
Envy ish
With the properties of envy they walk calmly into garage. I know it's not really to you. I trust me
I'm used to it
Fordok has it going up in a window. I like that and the Sun to penny dodging out from that
Oh, Penny try to track him. You just can't do it
Poor ankles. Oh my god his ankles and his neck to snap the whiplash. There's just no fast rotator
There's no flood attempts. Oh
It's just over here.
So, uh, you better run into that seat so I can leave or beat him on the challenge, which they know is how it is to me.
If anyone can do it, it's Envy.
Rossi now.
Good awareness from Zepha though.
Taking his time.
When's that challenge gonna come in?
This pistol wrap could justify him to half-voxy, can find his way in.
Oh my god, Zepha.
Rossi's low key played this perfect.
Aim's the one on two.
These players have full HP.
He has the pull.
Zepa holds for Zelsis, that was clean! Excellent work from the C9 duo!
That was good, that was good, that was good, that was good, that was very good from Zepa.
But I was very well executed from them and secures the rounds.
It was really good, I should have been a free hit after this.
How the fuck had Envy managed to lose this round?
With this much map control and site control.
This was weird though, extra body at a timing to fight,
but I would have much rather seen them just hold back on site
instead of trying to make another play when they're already up a man.
I wonder how loud the comms were in that moment.
I can imagine Envy screaming and shouting getting ready for that fight a
Little bit go go go. I don't know how to say your name. Oh my god
Thank you except this time oxy with the outlaw down a win
I mean, it's not Owen.
The only thing in the front.
It's Owen, Irish name.
Actually!
Oh my god.
Oh no.
Thank you.
That's not good to know.
Oh, god.
Sorry.
Sorry.
Oh my god
You guys all know that
It's a C9 very much back in this game now a gap of only two
I don't know any Irish people
Well, the same thing happened to the other one here.
He has the exact same thing in garage, so...
Right, right, is Irish, actually?
English.
Well?
Like, is he from Ireland?
side. So oxy fighting against the current this round. He's Irish actually. He doesn't
have the accent. He has a full English accent. It's kind of wild. He used to play for the
Irish national team. Really. I did not know that were either. Am I fake for that? He popped
ready for it
This is a cancel for sure. This is a hard cancel from Envy
Rossi's is not any space in A though, because this is just a B pop. They do have that chamber chip at B
So they know there's no one push C
And then they walk A. It's a beautiful call
This is all up to Oxy. Oxy has to get this kill and get out
Yeah, but neither did they take any damage either so oh shit outlaw still they've chosen correctly
hands still wait the re-popping deal I'm confused hit into sent to utility previous in the series
five garage different story they're heading into one ball here garage the turret is there for some
extra layers of information time is going to be the role what is that me doing
they will have some ideas to get to site but Sina and art actually stopping them all things
considered Vic's trying to come in but it's a little bit late what are you gonna do it's all
over the place from cloud nine caught between two separate ideas we actually hold this do we
wait and play with the group and they are punished for it there was a real chance for c9 there with
the alarm bot with the stall off the molly there was a moment where they could have rotated in and
it looked like they wanted to play retake but i thought he was just gonna run in and then tp the
back block so his teammate has space to run in that's what i thought was good i think that's
that's what he was trying to do actually don't even know what he was trying to do
he just had to didn't you Oxy takes down extra and some chip on the back
exit any exits potentially the exit there's gonna be absolutely nothing
get my turn whatsoever and he goes watch this to be fair feels good even in
the round lost but that one really I think both on this field hold and on seed
there were serious winning chances from C9 they just couldn't capitalize on it.
Yeah they just ended up just being a little off the equation.
The best play there would have just been to pick down the OD and suppress us.
Almond flash so you blind the close guy and then just TP the backflip.
I'll see you ask for that trust.
So if the close guy just rushes you because he's like near-sighted, still can't see you
and then you get to kill one of them.
Good chance.
But at the very least you delay for your teammates to run in with you
There's insta paranoia into a backplot TP and he would have probably lived there is envy going to fraud
Oh, he was tagged by fucking dart. Oh, true
Then I think he's cooked either way committal just yet for the same time true true playing fairly reserved
No one taking a forward line just a drone into a lobby that sees a whole bunch of nothing. Yeah. Thank you to the zero
I think they got it. Yeah. No, they didn't have to win this round, but I have to win this round. There's one. It's like a must win.
So Viper Neon ready to flood be the second it's popped on. So have an omen playing a much else happening. Oh, God, Jordan, you have to hold this. You have to hold this, brother. I know it's a hard ask.
You're completely by yourself. This is a 5v5 retake.
What is happening? What are they confused about? Do they think Cloud9 is for sure going to be aggressive here?
Are they really running the same dog shit garage truck?
There's a snake bite and there's a viper wall that's fake garage split into a see-hit or to be hit is absolutely critical
Right now Penny getting confused a little bit. He gets pulled back to garage. It's not attention drawn
To be another nobody be fighters gonna continue and be confused them. I don't know how
Now considering stepping forward into cloud
I know it's the self stunned!
It's the lord!
Oh my god, how many errors in one round?
C9 stayed unpunished for the time being
and now Auxi gets right back into that fight
just stepping up when it matters for
Ken, he finds the A self-test
We'll take it!
But from zero to hero, C9 takes the round
Self-stun into a 4k
Masterclass from Auxi
You know that, she met that sarcastically
Really nice counter utility from his team
Just look how many of these players were blind as he brawls back in.
It's an actual jester move out of box.
You messed up and still managed to do this.
I think you have to.
I mean, this is really a good move from him, but I mean...
Sure.
You know?
A neutral journalist always shows both sides.
As Bob Ross famously said, that was just a happy little accident.
Okay.
What's insane is if they just get the bomb down and play off like any normal team would in that scenario,
Envy just win this game.
not love the way Envy called that attack round.
If they literally just get the bomb down,
and instead of trying to go A-link,
they just play out of the bomb site, they just win the game.
But they try to do too much.
They can't go LB though, what do you mean, why not?
Nobody was behind them.
They had garage pressure.
They got it for B, they planted the bomb.
There is a staff that can fight through it, but I just think they've accomplished it as a lot of characters that really thrive at playing the extremities solo
She wanted to fight I think both Phoenix and chamber you can let them just do their thing
Maybe you put a little you tell early to get that my team or one in bedding towards when you get the bomb down a beat acrimony with
Zero counter you tell them playing more rounds where they're giving it's literally nine out of ten times you just play off
You just win no matter what off your own you till
You just wind off them trying to PTA the entire
Short do the same thing and now and he's given C9 away back in the same desire right now though
They're considering their options in the by category
so force up from kesnitz and
Something from eggster. Yeah, I'd like to
Would like to maybe see him be given a gun if you plan to stop this round
Especially when he has the run it back available. So guaranteed C-split here. Maybe chamber will or cub B
They do it but no pressure a I guess they do this smoke that's about it
This is a zero pressure
It's fine because they could have walked downstairs
He can also have that turd on a
Interesting and is basically never touched a in this attack out neon see vipers. We get over here Molly garage
He has to kill him, he has to kill him, and if all of C9 come through these choke points,
I mean, set up for Hilo now.
See how the spike comes down.
Shot from him, the transfer poppin' is elite.
And it's given Demon one a chance to win this round.
Under the open, sitting and waiting,
Demon one will take him down.
What a beautiful round out here.
Let's get out of here.
You sit down.
Disgusting, one HP in the Hilo,
perfectly sprays down two in CT.
And it starts like this.
Escalation.
Knocked down the 29, a classic kill.
Gets the rifle.
This place is so, so well.
Is that a win again?
Thank you for the five Gets it, brother.
Thank you so much.
And Amy will take a tie-down off that one.
They're seen on anchors again,
got flustered in the pace of the fighting,
had kills isolated.
Now Penny has to get the kill there.
That is not.
It's usually a bit of speed in this series
where Cloud9 get their feet out under them
and then there's a round like that.
There is no one, I mean, come on, Cloud9.
This is just not...
a little bit is I thought just sad it's not even bad it's just sad it's sad it's sad because it's
sad. What was like holding that second half the defense half together from C9 was their site
anchoring yeah right zelsis walking it down the rest of the team like they worked down numbers three
on fives two on fours etc. as far as you think you're proud and it's just over it's over now it's over
it's over now and these are on attack side 10-7 up I don't even know Cloud9 has any money to work
work with. Ships is done. Not even think I've seen it all. I'm not see hands yet. Ships is done.
I mean, the team is... Whoever this is is out. Like I said, it's over. Your season is done.
No offense like I don't understand that it's like I'm just trying to win all of this eight teams around in a real
Whoever loses is out with Phoenix ult
You are kind of expecting a fast surround from Envy. Thank you. Thank you
I wonder what it looks like from C9 though because Envy haven't done a lot in a lobby
just turns into getting oxy or someone on the forward line and then
Shifting back to play heavy on the other side. Keep your eyes on C long by the way
Penny all the way up in his pit with the judge in hand.
Oh dear.
Run it back through garage to pull some attention off mid.
Mind you, but now Penny is getting wrapped around on.
The run it back runs out of time and that's going to be taken down with the Molly.
My God, that was so clean.
The other Luis on Wipers, Penny steps right back into this reposition.
And the one way here as well, meanwhile, Kesnick is rinsing them in the back side.
It'll be a fight between Kassnet and Penny.
But look at this spike, it is on the other side of this pit.
How did Kassnet get through?
The madness.
Oxy-1 just sprinted all the way through A to find that one.
I think you almost have to go back around the world to try and recover this.
Oh my god, look at Kassnet.
Look at Kassnet back in spot, he really is.
We are fully traded sides of the map.
Alright, it's still 40 seconds.
He's literally going the whole way back.
40 seconds?
I mean, they just have to get the kills here.
There's no...
There's no denying us lands.
It's just where he gets the kills.
Oh, okay.
Well secured. Holy shit. I need to see how Kensington goes for a kill.
Oh, wow.
Oh, my gosh, bro.
Literally a 1v3 in the middle of the round.
I promise to them for almost bringing this round back.
There should have been a clean round.
I'm fine.
I'm fine.
I'm fine.
Until he did that.
They can still win there.
They can still win, shot.
They can literally still win.
Doubling the kill.
Jordan needs two kills this round, and he's secure the next round with the kills royal.
I'm out here so long.
Bank account yet.
So, waiting on the tax refunds to come in.
And then we do have themselves a B site for now.
Now, let's see how much money matters.
It's fine.
Nobody's dead.
But quite a few of these, he goes one.
Ah, poppin'.
Oh, Demon 1 just got killed.
Out of nowhere.
Nice.
Nice.
Nice.
That was a classic.
Okay, Rossy, why not?
You want to play?
You want to play?
Let's play.
and demon one has ripped to the old oh no oh god Vic might need to get a flash
big TV telephone up on top he's through the smoke no it's a disaster couldn't
find the angle and now demon one is holding the other a thrifty win just
Stolen out of nowhere from Envy
Let's wrap it up again. How many times this game
Have thrifties been the difference
And credit to demon what the shots he has your work
Can we just put oxy B at the start of the round teleport and he's over rotates wherever they go
Can we just do that?
Not a great
Vic, Vic top B site, this would be fine.
Just get that entry before they exec.
That's like the third time they've gotten B for free.
High flash for fun, as Envy shows something a little bit different, barreling down A short,
very long rather.
But C9 do have a more reserved stack behind all this sent to utility.
Oh my god.
We need a Fist 3A, this 2A.
Surely Envy cancelled, surely Envy don't throw this.
Wait, this guy just walks in first.
There's a turret in their way.
They're re-hitting.
There's three walkies.
No jump spot, nothing.
Foxy dies here if this guy beats him.
There's no shame.
to pick up the spike and go for the plant.
Any considering trying to get back in here, but
if you were to go for it, it's all on his own.
Only now has Vic joined him side by side.
It's just game. It's just game.
You want to fight it!
And the wall too. No chance is taken.
Difficult to get back in.
I mean, Paranoia maybe they're on the wall.
Going 5-0 down on attack side.
Like the results the end I don't know if it accomplished anything and now they're trying to go for a talk
But he doesn't trust the TP. He doesn't trust it after the last round in with a
He is trying to run out of here
Shaky as envy move up to series point
It's done. It's actually there's just out of it. They're out of it. There's nothing because it's a good fucking player
There's no way you're missing that
It's just they're out of it
What is that
They're now a
Roundaway from the way. There's no beliefs brutal slow it down like that guys. Yeah, I'm not a lip reader, but I'm pretty sure that was
Something like that. Yeah
Yeah, well see now I'm gonna have to work with absolute
What does this mean for C9? That question has actually never had more weight than it does now. I actually don't know what they do.
Nothing works for this organization. Nothing.
Something always goes wrong.
It's gonna be their best chance.
The vitality of the best you might have is two guardians.
Oh, Vinny.
They don't have a single real rifle at their disposal.
The weakness is A.
Wow.
It's cool calling to see for Menv to find this A side
a couple rounds in a row.
So wait into the game too.
Yeah, after basically ignoring it
for all of the start of this half.
And anticipating, they're not gonna double stack binders
sent to you till two rounds in a row.
That'd be ridiculous.
Plus C9 in fire.
Does he even join?
What is this, basically done?
Who do you get rid of?
Henny midi?
Into this retake can't even get on to the spike bill for the half
Not simple just yet, but I like penny spot up in heaven
Bringing them down
This is a formality at this point to the lot of chances
Unmanaged to pull it together
And this is around where they had a pretty rough buy coming in way with guardians with the stinger
Getting away with the way to and that kill is so pivotal reading the reef line
He's gonna come for that box down
Shutting it down and have some hope even earlier. They dismantled my house
They were ripped into shreds with the way they played some of these rounds and punish that killjoy
Specifically that attack side. I'm not even worried about this team. We're doing his best
He says at least try to hold B a little bit. Just for a bit for D.O.D.
Bigger off CD at all times. This is good. I'm a good setup
If that's gonna be a cast
Someone has to be B for this entry and then just TP away. Interesting purchase. We're seeing demon. Why'd he go first?
Tiki's backside, Paranoia's, that's it.
Basically the first time in the series.
Oh, they have Neon and Omen V.
I love that. I love that adaptation.
He's not going to get a huge amount of value with the weapon.
Yeah.
He didn't have a ton of money to spare, so it could just be he wants the heavy.
That said, Envy putting that work in to clear away the utility.
Pressuring Garage a little bit, making sure it's not free and controlled.
C9 are keeping it fluid in how their Killjoy is setting up.
I'm not gonna know is this chamber doesn't actually get broken. I really like that. Why are we does we take a because demon one is working?
This a side slowly he calls the team back into him
See nine are just choosing to play full-on retake on a which is a big gamble
The difference is if this time they don't have all it's only that Omen alt for a reposition
I mean you take this retake all that easy
Yeah, and not a whole lot of utility in terms of bleaching back in.
Paranoia and a stun gonna be your best options.
And an Odin to hold the line, no refline coming.
This is going to be difficult.
First shock.
Lands down onto Poppin.
Second goes awry.
Alright, here we go.
Neon stun, Paranoia, silver dart.
And the drone in.
C9 are taking their time.
They're flushing out, making sure there was no lurker coming down.
down, but everything in this series is riding on this retake for Cloud9, at risk of falling
down 0-2 in the standings, and it might just come to 4. Penny, into the smoke, everyone's
being revealed, it's Mayhem, it's Madness on the side, but it's C9 coming up on top.
Demon1 delivers, dodging out, but the smoke blocking his vision, he has to activate, now
Now he has sent you quickly! Oh my god, he's done it!
He has delivered! Demon won! Out of nowhere!
Takes away C9's hope with a red book clutch.
I just don't have words, bro.
An absolutely incredible moment for Demon 1 to deliver.
They saw his promise when he played against him when he was wearing that Cloud9 jersey.
but now on the other side of this battle so much better than every player on the
server
whole three bullets on that one
and he got it
why am I lost to close out of game even one
yeah that's it that's it I've lost uh let's take it for a problem
Move the jet there when...
Move up to one body in the sand...
That's done. They're done.
No dark horse. They're not even a horse anymore.
Not even a pony at this point.
Just over. This is done.
Not even a point. Holy shit.
Brawl.
Can you explain why? Well, you see, if you look at Cloud9's recent results, they are
0 and 2. Lev, sure, they should lose 2. Lev's been playing really well. Envy was the one
mid to bad, like below average team in their group. They have now lost that game and they
will have MIBR still and they still have G2. At best case scenario, they will go 1 and
Which is not required is not enough to qualify
Well loud I'm saying cloud 9 still has a chance of beating loud player for player, you know if like
But I'm being realistic. They could beat them
But they have so much aggression they're so
Unpredictable in the way they play and they're just so confident with every single player
They're a tough team to deal with.
No, they're not making playoffs any more.
This is no man's not making playoffs.
I already said this at the start of the game.
Whoever loses this match, loses their chance at qualifying playoffs.
Not a chance of recovery.
You have G2 and MIBL.
The playstack.
Yeah, it really was.
In a tough position as you look ahead towards the rest of the standings,
But what matters today is envy and this game just gets me excited for the rest of what this team has to deliver
I want to see more maps more comps and I think it's wrong
The amount of like 3k is demon one God where it's just like instantaneous almost just in a flick absolutely brilliant
But for us, that's gonna be it. You reckon they'll make it to London. Okay. I was wrong guys. I gotta pick a new team. I
Gotta pick a new team to have faith in
A new dark horse.
Stop saying Sentinels!
It's not possible!
You
Crew I fine fair enough we go with crew I'm down Sadaki
I'm down
I'm down for Karoo.
Bro switched up like that.
Listen, fuckface.
Cloud9 doesn't have a chance. I have to switch up.
I'm in a position where there is literally no chance.
Not a 1% chance. It's 0.
So there's not even a point in like pretending Cloud9 can make it anymore.
That's it. This was their chance.
They had to beat Envy.
Envy still has Lev, G2, MIBR.
They have to win two of their next three games.
Eh, they could, could they win one and get away with that?
I mean, NB's out too, let's be honest.
Unless, even one just hard carries them.
There's just no way.
Who's so good at your...
Even one after would have to go plus 30 at least in one of those games.
...wicking things out and scrims, finding different age comms that work for you guys.
Has it been frustrating at all or has it been kind of a new adventure for all of you?
I mean, in scrims, like, we have really good results.
It was just, I think, first game is always a little rough.
Like, when you're playing a new agent for Egg,
We wouldn't have put him on the agents if he wasn't doing good. That's just fucking so it's just stupid. So, you know, like
Yeah, that's really yeah nice to get about the client. That's annoying. He was doing really good. Yeah, I feel you
I feel you. That's annoying. That's the only reason we lost to be honest that I was calling bad to be honest
Well, he stepped up today. My last question for you is you'll be facing leviathan next
How do you think kind of the envy way is gonna or how will the envy way take over leviathan in next week's match?
I mean, we ran there. We ran their cops in the two maps we won. So let's just see who does it better
All right, well guys, thank you so much. I'm gonna get up for Rossi, but stay right there because we have Fiora here versus EG.
Rossi's looking good though. He's looking like bigger. They're doing better.
Envy kind of fit the dark horse if they didn't fall over Slav. Yeah, me, but they did. So here we are.
I mean realistically both Envy and Cloud9 should be not making it considering okay
We've only seen Leve play once so we can't get too carried away, but they did play exceptionally well, so
Envy still has to beat Leve. They're not beating G2 and
They're not beating in my VR. This is it. This is their game to win
That's it and even if they win Leve and then lose these two. There's still a good chance. They don't make it
so I mean
This group has already decided, in my opinion, but Cloud9 for sure can't make it anymore.
That's it.
That's just raps for them.
They would, like you would have to see a completely different team fielded for Cloud9 to qualify.
Like this is never going to happen.
You don't have enough time to adjust.
Louie, thank you for the 10 gifted men.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.
I appreciate you, man.
Thanks very much, thanks.
I don't know what combat I can do, I'm gonna be honest.
This seems like a, it's just the same problems over and over again, it's sad, it's just
sad to see.
Who's winning this one?
Let's go with EG, shall we?
Should I just keep doubting Furia?
I'm actually just curious, what are the odds?
Not as bad as Secret versus PaperX Chat.
I don't know if you guys were here for yesterday's matches.
Team Secret was a 14 to 1 underdog.
I have never seen that.
Fatal thing of the prime.
14 to one is insane.
On VLR, it was literally 14 on Team Secret.
They almost took second map, we don't talk about that though, it's all good.
What is this guy saying, demon one isn't good?
These are the kinds of supporters that piss me off the most, because they make the rest
of us look bad.
You know what I mean?
They're bringing it down for the rest of us.
It's actually fucked.
Did you see Fallen is retiring, actually?
Jeez.
Hopefully they do something cool for him, his retirement.
He is an absolute legend.
are you sure I go for the pacific games yes if if I am I don't really care for this one
But this one I want to watch, this won't be a good game.
Who do you think wins? Global eSports, I think wins, but I...
He only wins just him, so I don't know.
We'll see. I actually don't know who wins this. I'm gonna have to say Global for now, and then this one, I do who cares.
In that team, he's a really consistent blueless and he pretty much knows how to play with the
scopes.
Oh yeah, Frostburst's tourney, I forgot.
Honestly, after this last 100 thieves and just seeing on what we can improve on and
what we can change for this match against Verion, I mean they were looking like a solid
team in kickoff.
Now we have to watch it.
Now we have to watch it.
Overall, it's not going to be an easy match because they're your team, but I think we
should be fine.
You got fudia taking on evil geniuses here golden boy back once again, we get drive we
have Athena you're about to what happened last game.
Oh, I don't know what happened, I'm pretty sure I predicted envy as well so what I think
Yeah, she was the C9 pig.
I didn't know that would happen.
Oh, silly Dryad.
You just, oh, what a...
Okay, you were right, you were right, dammit.
We'll talk about it later.
Now, of course, last week...
I got more faith that Big E is still alive.
Wait, I just want an unlocked Superman.
I feel like if Superman is unlocked, it changes out a lot.
That's my line.
Yeah, right?
That really felt like it at times, man.
There were a lot of things to take away from this game, I think more important than what was going to be the level of play that we were going to get out of Fudia, especially after what happened in Santiago.
But since then, I mean really this was just absolutely beautiful for them.
In Santiago they play, Paper X, they play BBL and they didn't really look very good so we had our questions on what was going to happen, especially going into...
I think G2 versus NRG is going to be closer to this.
...Bagels?
If there was ever a loot fucking warm tank that actually could hold...
the toast plans ice cold take that's it right there making it seem like they had
some gaps in the map when you took your vlog you promised okay I thought it
would be really sorry and it hasn't been and that's on me because I lied but I
actually thought it would be as well so I didn't mean to lie it was an unintentional
lie it's completely on the same page every call that's being made every
strat every playbook idea everyone has it ingrained into them I can watch a pack
Yes, we are back and then watch the video again
You can see that everyone is talking and communicating and listening to each other
Which is one of the biggest things that I feel like here's time to struggle with
Specifically when it comes to chaotic rounds of furia, they don't have a problem
They have that one person speaking their mind arts and we've heard them a lot talking and being that alpha and making sure that everyone is
Doing what they can we saw in the post plants on their retakes their mid rounds everything has just been so phenomenal by furia
I'm struggling to find fault and then look there are a lot of questions people have right they're wondering is is this fury was that when
Fury of playing up to the temple we expect them to or we hope for them to the energy may be slowing down a little bit
There was one individual who had the same fault. Let's hear what he had to say
And I'm telling I'm telling you guys rewatch this game and then tell me energy played that they played that
Say that to me like they're playing the map badly
they're not rotating well, tell me that.
They didn't.
They did not play that.
They played honestly above average
and Fiora were just really that good.
This is why I'm saying Fiora,
I think is clearly the most impressive team I've seen.
This split, like it's not close.
He's probably watching right now, so, hola, hello,
hey buddy, good to see you.
Yeah, some great perspectives on that though,
that I think is worth talking about real fast
before we go to the interview,
Because, you know, yeah, you could look at that and be like,
ah, energy slipped up.
All that 1310, oh, energy could have gotten that.
But when you look at it, and then you look at the game,
Fury were just playing exquisite valor.
They were always one step ahead, it felt like.
And that's what made the difference,
because energy, they had great ideas
on how they wanted to retake, how they wanted to flood.
But even with Ultimans knowing what Ultimans were available
for this entire area.
But then Fury, I please it one step ahead.
Maybe they could use it.
I am true, thanks for your one, man.
Happy birthday.
I think you have unlocked them though with someone pro,
For example, that was exactly what happened and I mean, it's so hard to predict. Yeah
So hard to predict and period does such a good job at finding the
One round where you on split had walked all the way through a haven and made it behind the deep players
Do you consider furious talent or tactical base games?
Finding those thoughts. They knew that the deadlock had to have something I mean, it's both
They're tactical and they have talent.
They clip you?
Send me the clip right now, St. Ives.
Be a good mod.
What could they have possibly clipped?
What do you guys all about?
I think you know you run the match back, it could be, you know, a tradeout, right?
Each time because they're both so freaking good, but Fury have shown.
and
the
Fiora playing up to the temple we expect them to or we hope for them to the energy maybe slowing down a little bit
There was one individual who had the same thought
When I was glazing Fiora
And I'm telling you guys rewatch this game and then tell me energy played back
They played that say that to me like they're playing the map badly. They're not rotating. Well, tell me that facts
Was that wrong? They didn't they did not play bad. They say I'm sure it's not the same story
I swear to God.
I swear to- Wait!
Stop!
It's not the same shirt!
I do not- Don't get this twisted!
It's not on Christ!
I-
Ha-ha-ha!
I could see where you're coming from,
and you're not gonna put this on me right now.
You can clearly see that this is a cotton shirt,
and this clearly is not a cotton- Why would it be shiny?
Huh?
Why would it be- This is a gym shirt.
Why would it be shiny?
Look at it, it's shining.
You're stupid.
Which is why I'm saying Fury, I think is clearly the most impressive team I've seen.
Like it's not close.
He's probably watching right now, so...
Hola, hola, hey buddy, good to see you.
Uh, yeah, some great perspectives on that though, that I think is worth talking about real fast
before we go to the interview.
Because, you know, yeah, you could look at that and be like,
ah, energy slipped up.
All that 13-10, oh, energy could have gotten that.
But when you look at it, and then you look at the game, Fury,
were just playing exquisite Valorant. They were always once of a head it felt like and that's what
made the difference in this energy they had. Shit, put me on desk. Put me on the goddamn desk.
I tell you. I told you.
This choke hold on Long Age the whole time on their defensive side and EG just couldn't do
anything about it. They were constantly getting through Cape. They couldn't clear space and they
couldn't make pressure on the other side of the map in order to delay. But if there is one thing I
I know is that Potter is so good at fixing if you wear a different shirt, maybe
Especially when it comes to think I'm about to bring that shirt out. It's pissing me off a little bit
She's so good at building those later layer
So I think that this is something that the team can definitely come back from with their upwards for that tree matter of executing
Right, and it's gonna be very difficult against a fury of that
It looks like they are showing no signs of slowing down from their dominant run at kickoff
But I'm just sure it's over to our 1v1 showdown for some side selection goodness
To the back wall anew going up against the assistant coach of EG. It's Bob and let's see how this one works out
Alright, Koala's gonna be on the KO foe be on the fade
trying to get to my control in there oh god how long did that go on for I'm still
thinking about how quality so last week that he was going to play a lot more
passive. Yeah, he was talking about it for like a whole minute. Yeah, dude, three oh no way.
Wait a second. I mean, at this point, right, it would have to be no, no shot was embodied.
Kuala, can we talk about it?
This can be a stress, you know, like, yeah, like ruin their...
I'm all the way in the hallway and I chatted with them for a little bit.
I feel like I might have done this.
I swear it's gonna be a big start.
Dude, why would you...
Okay, we're back.
Alright, we don't have donuts, we got breadsticks.
Is it a comeback?
Could it be?
Not good.
Donuts and breadsticks.
You don't know about donuts and breadsticks?
Come on!
Zero's a donut, but you get a one.
Because you're wearing it.
No.
It's not the same, bro.
I'm telling you, it's not the same.
Whatever, no.
It doesn't matter because he doesn't get there.
Oh, Bob defeats Kuala New.
He's just in coach and makes up the win over the start to it.
It happens, yeah.
Amazing.
Sometimes things like that, it all.
Keeping the stereotypes alive.
That's cool.
So EG is going to be getting that first one.
You know what?
It doesn't even matter.
I'm not even fucking sure about that.
Any advantage you can get coming into this matchup
against Furia is going to be a big deal.
to show to fans. Thank you for the tier one off. I bet and I think it just doesn't matter.
I think we talked a lot about how they struggled on their attack side on on that haven so maybe
this might be a step in the right direction where they can start on the side that they've worked
really hard on fixing and we know that they love to go back and not server love to kind of review
and make sure that everything is good and so for EG it's gonna be kind of cool kind of gonna be kind
of interesting to see what they come up with to keep honor on a lot of that aggression. Yeah but I
They're gonna need a lot of plans there cuz I feel like Dan furious a type of team
But even when you shut down one of their plans
They're so capable of being able to have something else in the back burner so that they can lean on for that next round
So you shut down one idea then there's another right behind it
They're really quick to react and that is something that we saw in last series
But I really like the maps that we're looking at Haven pearl lotus
Actually to sort this up. They're really strong maps for this
Easy starting this map of Haven last week on Evil Geniuses and it was a map that they get to start attack on Haven
They didn't have a lot of control on that A side. It was very weak. They only had clown. It was their best map in that series
C9 to it and it was red. It was rough. It was so difficult to play around it
And again, you you understand how they want to play where they want to get a little more repressive on the other
on the electricity, but it's still just something that
Let me clarify something here real quick. Let me just make sure I clarify this before it's too late to clarify it
This is not the same shirt number one and number two and most importantly
They were asked before I started supporting them
There's no oh after oh like for this is the curse like I get what they're trying to do here. This is not on me
Like, what are we talking about here?
How dare you?
I don't like this weird, like, like, what is it called?
This like, curse thing you guys are doing.
Oh yeah, the jinx monster, the jinx deity.
Like, yo, that's, yo, I support PaperX and we've come second place, we've come first
place at Toronto, and like third place or fourth place at Champs, what are we on about?
The fury versus energy performance. I agree. It was just yeah
This is the first time you're coming into a game
Fuck you mean they are massive favorites
And I think that's kind of true all year even when they went in their first game up against the crew sub roster come on
Oh, yeah, no, I don't know about this. You're actually I need Superman. They could actually lose this game
I know DJ's in is all reliable. He's always gonna show up
But I need okianos and I need supermen is definitely changed
Our fury has been gaining more and more and more respect and this is the first game where they are massively favored to win momentum building
There's any signs of resistance gonna be firmly stopped in his tracks
They just take a little pause here as well waiting to see if there's gonna be a response from Nervin Ardizim
What did I just say?
It's amazing that they get some in through that A lobby area.
And now it's just about closing out.
I think this is one of the big things we've got to pay attention to in this game, Brad.
Can EG close out advantages when they're up?
The game the other day was not ideal for that one, but this round today won, ended up losing
the follow-up anti-Ecos consistently.
Just need to hold onto these advantages once they get into the spot, but this one looks
pretty set in stone, I have to say.
Good post plan so far.
If anything, DG's in, we'll die.
Crossfire from hell.
Oh, what a stun. It's just sensational behavior.
Superman, Andy, he's then locked in. Okay.
Just need one other guy. Ok, I know.
But no worries, he'll get some Ecos.
He still has a stun. Didn't know he'd use it.
He's going to set it to free.
Well, they earned it, but...
Got the kills to free.
He is that guy. He is that guy.
up in his hands on defense you know that you can rely on it.
You guys, you're looking too good, you know what I mean?
To step up and outrank you.
Otherworldly good.
Surely the countdown is coming soon.
It just turns up and suddenly drops 30 in here.
But they're inconsistent the rest of the squad in terms of when they give you those performances.
My god, do they need them today?
Hold on, this is a stack of bodies smoking a wall to hide you from the time.
What's going on here?
I've seen this one.
It's cheeky.
It's shaky.
Cheeky little bugger.
We take that.
We take that.
Beautiful round.
Okay, we win bonus here.
It's the start of something special.
It's some strategy around that in core thing in the prep or something like this
Put a damage on this bonus round and then they could stop with the squeeze
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, Superman's actually locked him a little bit now
Superman's a little off there right now like he's looking like he's
He's him right now. Like I know it's only two rounds. I want to get carried away, but
I'm sensing something
It's like a sixth sense
So I'm thinking of the prep
I'll see those, all slow to begin, NG, not really posturing anywhere, just looking for times where I've seen a few of them will react, but they're going to take the first step forward, stealing up the orb over the doors.
I'm just holding for any type of aggression, some weird shit.
If it was going to be something fast on a bonus, would they break our turret, or have we not placed it?
Three players ready to defend the fight over towards A-Long.
Tripping?
We'll play Retake B. Now that it's not a fast round round, I know that.
Oh no, turret's behind.
You see the defendants spread out a little bit more, and Koala knew Pig's at this middle of the map.
Okay, we have turret holding garage. We have Alarm Bot A, kill to a T spawn Shillen. We
pressure garage and then go B. I love this so far. No blades. Yup, I love this as well
because now they have to worry about garage. Love that. This is good, man.
Can we cause a bit of a-
It's finally a bit of a delay, we break the turret, it's all good, they're not flooding,
we get bomb down for free.
But the chip damage occurs, you should be able to score in one hell of a timing to take,
no, his head's clean off the shoulders, jumps running around, this is an aggressive play
by EG, we're gonna take it once and for all, but hold on, bit of miscommunication.
What are we doing right now?
Call new, surely should have been spotted, but he's the one-
We planted.
We do-
I'm just gonna end up, we'll look to stem the bleeding, make sure-
Oh my god.
Oh my god, we're playing like this.
I'll put over-
Cog has ult as well.
We won the round, bonus round.
Bonus round, why do you like this from EG?
They put themselves in a great position
I am the god damn hunter
Okay, round should still be over
It's too good, guys
They didn't even have a person, one guy alive
That was a well worked round
Okay, I don't care if you're EG hitter, whatever
Whatever it just in case that you wait for the aggression. They take it carefully and then they just pressure garage
That or the connector to see link or in say the garage or
Now they have to worry about garage as they're retaking the adult times to extract himself and common bow
Just play the world safe around post funds. Absolutely lock up that being round. That is lovely
Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Exactly to plan and Superman six and one to disrupt that plan.
Speaking my language now a little bit. I think that's really you have to do that against
CG. You can't allow them to run on the map. You've got them. I think if you're a fury,
I believe that you're the better team and start trying to look to contest them early.
You mean one in six? Two stars to beginning these rounds, but it's been working for you.
You are all just failures in this game, alright?
Like, yeah, I failed my last year, and you guys have been failing.
You little silver fox.
I'm asking for a bit of a clearance, the drone's gonna be committed there, just in case somebody
has slipped into any sort of gaps in deep in there.
The gingerman?
I'm gonna wanna touch short particularly though in this round.
You know the furrier economy is great, so that's a danger area and you don't have drone
to go and clear it.
I'm immortal 3 bud.
But slow in terms of how he takes this spot
Just a free as kill I love the way we're working these equal rounds to taking our time
This paranoid is gonna be beautiful for Mokiana so I could just tell oh my god, we're canceling
Wow look at us go
Look at us go there overthinking chat we took so long they over thought it and now they left the it's not
Koala noob's got a rifle on the other side of the map, should be fairly easy for EG to convert here
20 seconds, Hudson slipped in, he's in the shorts for now, we've been in an hour all the time
I mean, he gets one and done, that's okay
There's a job, 12 seconds remaining, time can't get him away
Okay, he's traded, he's traded as well, no problem, the other two roaches are relatively far
Not a flood, take smoke here, the round is over, just like that
Where's Koala doing this, why's Koala there?
It's not like DG knew like we did look at the minute I feel like you'd rock DG's chain pretty hard
I'm pretty sure GMD's and if I put that chain on it would be like putting leaves weights on
And my ass would just fall over on one side or the other and I'm furious up in the hands of Alan
This is around my fury and need to get on the board DG. You're put the time to speed up and around like this. They've been playing slow going
So these rounds that would take towards that a lobby area
a little bit of a pressure no problem okay we triple peak long look at the amount of
pressure that's already been put they're convinced they have to keep two people away unless they
a little bit of a garage peak off this any noise that's been happening okay we
don't put any pressure in the middle which I don't like and that lane does have off
here but look at allem he's on such a passive line with his ops and that
alarm bot might make us walk up it's like a bait alarm bot smart from arts
in it feels like it's certainly a similar game plan oh my god are we gonna
really drone garage here chat oh my god we are at 47 seconds we're joining
garage after keeping a control for as long as this to bait a retake from
them yeah with a fake teleport as well pulls koala new all I mean we went
They're in the run.
Big paranoia? He has to get out or not?
Okay, he chose death.
D.C.
Good kill, good kill here.
Alright, he's at 6-3.
Not nerf in a 1v2, Snape bite, rebounds and pushes superman into the very uncomfortable territory.
But all of this is a kill. Never killed Clay, 3-in-a-round for him.
A big round for EG.
A fantastic one. They have just kept this momentum going off the back of a successful pistol constantly.
And they're doing the same things again. This is a lead into the A side.
Weak on Dark finds so much value from Comm as well, never broken.
And this is Ian's neon alts. Overwhelmed.
I'm really struggling to see from Furious perspective where this excellent team with so many fast, reactive protocols has disappeared to.
I thought you said you liked Furious. I did, yes. I'm no problem with Furious.
I just like to see upsets. And this is a clear upset. That's a brewing. It's a brewing upset.
Nothing at all like yeah, I mean you've got to have some level of play when the noise is cut and there's 30 seconds of silence
There has to be some
Information gained around the map. He's what I thought club nine would be I said it
You could at least at least last five rounds your year coaching booth sure unable to make it for the game today because he's
recovering from some I think minor surgery
So instead give me no stepping in yeah
might have a bit of an influence in moments like this you're down 0 5
your team actually does need a big strategic adjustment to how they're
approaching the game now just two stagnant oh yeah who is like that massive
fury that's what's called the time up you have an imposter and you know you know
what's love in our midst is it coming out of this the zine is picking up an
operator yeah and you're expecting you to give the press probably watching
I think they were aggressive in some areas of the map.
And there's zines just looking to punish.
French fries or Belgian fries?
What the fuck is a Belgian fry?
Knocked down as well in terms of weaponry.
Not going to be working much in this round at all.
If you're looking to try and change anything,
you'll be looking towards the next round.
What is this?
It's all going right for them as well.
It was the attack side of their haven, I think, as well, that really struggled.
Did it match the other day?
I'm going to take a BG, I do think it's slower controlling pace, where they're trying to
shut down aggression early on, and be quiet in terms of where on the other hand they're
all good.
This round, it's pretty similar to the anti-eco they played before, they cannot allow the clock
to run down to 30 seconds and then be walking into Buc-ees.
So I have no preference here.
all the way giving EG a lot of credit for how the planet attacks you.
You might need to step the pace up a little bit on this round.
I'm a little bit concerned with the time. It's been left in the tail end of some of the
rounds. Like I would like thicker fries if I'm eating a steak. Thinner fries if I'm eating
like a burger. I don't know. Whistle past his nose.
Oh he sucked it in his breath.
And here. Yeah this is- Is there a poking isn't it with the attack side off? This is the danger I
think. 45. The attack side off should be great in the next round but I am worried about the clock here.
Yeah, there's no gamble stack from fury it
But there's buckies everywhere is it lurking around a corner? It's dangerous here. Where are they ending?
I don't know don't all the planets
So we disappointed here, but it is only Allen with a pistol. Yeah, they might find the right spot possibly
Rebounding the connection that he needed
It's all the words of loaded in EU. Yeah, happy to apply
Free kill!
Get the spawn down for free, Bow.
Kill Bow.
Nice.
Oh my god, he's gonna continue going forward.
Yeah, you know the rush here!
Oh no, he didn't.
Guys?
Round over.
And they use Sovault.
Round over, and they fucking use Sovault.
Huge.
But they are getting it done, and you've got to take a step backwards
Nobody thought eG is 6-0 up to begin this now absolute perfection for you for yourself
Speak for yourself. So I said dismantling fury. Yes, they've gotten nailed by moments
they are
taking this to the very edge on the ATE goes but I mean general this approach the attack side is working perfectly
Now we have to see if fury is adjustment. Oh, she'll come closer here. Come closer. Oh, holy shit
because this this is where they took the attack time out to try to adjust things
Victor is not breaking it W mid-round aggression
Kayleen is getting very aggressive towards A we have no pressure on that
unfortunately we'll be popping again are we it's all quiet early though for EG
very similar kind of ideas and again that more passive look from Furia this
time though getting in front of the smoke over towards bricks is a bit of a
difference let's listen into eG
I'm gonna smoke, ready?
One, two, three
Nice, man
Nice
Daring C
40 second fake
Alright, let's try going towards A
Come on, come on, we're going fast
Let's do it, do it, do it, do it
I'll come into your...
Go triple long, push, come on
Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, get to the corner
Go close, go for close
Nice
I'm shocking for your learn, bud
I'm smoking, have it in five, smoke, have it in five
I'm...
I'm on the backside, I'm on the backside
On your backside Douglas
right together right right right right right right right right here on the left side guys
right here on the right side guys
I tried
big
10 seconds left
I see
left left left
I see I see I see I see
maybe a little bit of an overcooked but I mean they
they take the right boss side
they call it Superman Unkin, all of their
they come back to come back to come back to come back to come back to them
they take the right boss side to be fair
this is the first round though that Fury have been able to make it work
I think massive credit actually to Alec.
I didn't see that enormous strategic adjustment
that I'm looking for, but instead, Alec alone on the A site
because of that fake that you heard from Ali.
Yeah, we now did a really good job of delaying after
as well as then getting instantrated.
If Alec gets instantrated, 100% pure you win.
Oh, my God, I'm done it!
Oh!
Yeah, pure you finally get one on the board.
Yeah.
I don't mind the attack calling though from Conn.
No, I like, I'm not clear, to be honest.
That was good calling. He's definitely manipulating rotation as well. He's picking the right bombsite.
I will always respect that.
What's our read here? Problem is they have killjoilts.
So they can play retake A and there is no consequence because we don't have Sovault.
So this is a big issue. Viper ult C, so C is hard and if we hit A, they just retake with Killjoy.
I would like for us to go B to A link here. We win, we go B to A.
Then they can't kill Joy.
Here we go.
just realized he's just been down there for you know 40 seconds yeah he keeps
just walked out of school for free it's very strange the way that fury are
approaching this after we go they've killed real good deal at last what do
you mean to have a lot of retail though so looking to play fully offside
and that's been survived this is already in the prime position for it there he is
prime ready waiting in his place I mean we're planting wall though right we're
playing through the right spot why are we planting here we should be planting
right here
That's a big kill by SuperMendo.
The Sova ult is massive for first contact on, first defuse, first stab.
Will, no one has to peek so far first.
No way.
Oh sure.
I mean, Koala can't get to.
It's a good retake.
The city plants good retention. Yes, my dog shit plant out of the site and they had people holding every angle
I mean a player up to what heaven a player on that short box
The only thing that they hadn't done was create some level of the diffuse pressure
And then once they did that you see how much the positioning
Advantage is favorite towards people like co-op and actually like gave us the big big
It gets chance of winning this round even with the shitty alts or city plants protocol actually from fury on the
because he got the entry early.
I don't mind the time out.
You don't want this half something alas.
You need at least eight rounds.
And...
Thank you.
Damn, gamers got horrible postures, eh?
pressure we're going in the opposite direction
this is the perfect opportunity for potter to call
alright now start following this opportunity
now throw in the fast hit that isn't a fake
recrediting fury i think is one
when you're playing against nrg for getting one step ahead
with the nrg timeouts
always trying to predict what plan they're going to be coming up with next
trying to get ahead of it by one layer
fixing your posture now won't undo the last
60 years of damage
Let's see what the adjustment here is, heavy a control.
Hilo is annoying off the turret.
That seems beautiful. That is actually sick for a period of time.
That is well played.
Double peek off turret, Hilo.
It's fucking good timing.
This is not the superman, this is just not the superman.
The lurk can be here.
We're not pressuring A at all.
Thank you.
Nice, he didn't die.
They have both taken the time, I'm ranting.
for an infreery player I mean the deep space by Alan surely is gonna help it get the stack of it all day
I mean the plane just for the 4v3 nerve does have a viper molly which is kind of annoying
but the shots aren't here so you get bombed out for free
Superman is back
this is well played by EG man this is what's winnable
Aline gets... Oh my god, I couldn't tell before dying though.
The big.
You heard it, you heard it, you heard it.
That's right.
where I think a lot of teams would be trying to flood off to A or deny A and instead they're playing for A retaken.
To be fair to their credit, they're actually playing it really nicely.
Nice shot man.
This round I thought Superman might have had the opener too.
He's having a game.
Yeah.
12 and 5 currently alongside Dijizine.
He was the player that we were saying.
Thank you Dijizine.
He has to step up if EG won win conditions but I think a lot of this has been carried by Koms calling as well
and just a better macro approach to Haven so far.
Fuck man, then EG need 8. EG need 8.
Viper killed Royce, C, Omen B.
Super standard, now he has AWP for short.
I'm actually surprised he didn't put walk down short and take that angle.
I guess the Viper wall is fucks him.
This might be one of those opportunities though to have what looks like a safe split.
But now again they're faking the opposite direction to the Soviet utilities.
Free B Bonsai chat. Free B Bonsai.
I'll just stay some breathing, when it's just out into the open, and it's flying sport!
Now Longtown gets committed, plus case scenario, it's going to take some insane shots indeed.
That needs to be broken, timely indeed. There it is, Fastlane's going to be dropped up here,
as much as you can keep that car composed of your shots.
of your shots. Artisan's got it all locked down. That's really tough for Baal. They're
in a 5v4 when he thinks about putting the lock down here. And then just as he goes for the
ultimate, two more players get dropped. And suddenly, not only are you on an eco round
if you're testing an ult, but you're actually in a disadvantage spot in terms of your play.
That was well played by Ordin. He didn't give them any time they were set up. If this kills
Joy ult, they delay it. It's delayed enough. If it delays Furia enough and no one runs in,
and they just wait it out actually they carry lose this round
it's worth the investment and it turns out to go against you just one round
EG you have to win up the next two rounds
yeah this is the A lobby pressure that was
Vyper ult Neonult
but nobody is home
funnily enough this is the first round EG a group to go fast C
looks like that's what they got their eyes set on
smoke up though and I like this change of pace by the way
5 minutes C usually these guys are defaulting
still trying to opfuscate not just going for a fast hit
Once the smoke drops, I'll go.
There it is.
Ah, it turns down.
Air turn back down.
One moment.
T-Tata's out.
Two delusions for the utility, at least for now.
And now Superman's got the pit.
This should be difficult to retake.
Pildre still should be watching.
But guess what, Fury are not going to be going from that direction.
Okay, full advantage for EG this round.
I'm trying to just watch on EG, just as they're expected Fury.
Bow has flank as well.
He has to get one at least.
One and done I'm happy with.
Nice, you're good.
Nice kill, but Alan's straight there, but again with the trade.
Centenius at that, Slimes at the side, he's making himself a very difficult target to try and pin down here.
He's with that backpicked troll! What a shot!
No he did not.
Oh! Oh, it just keeps going!
Holy fuck.
He's a menace, man.
Right now, he's dominating.
Not slowing down from that momentum of prior.
Four kills, biting his time, waiting it out, that pick's still up.
Finally removing him, but the trade in time.
Well played.
No time is ridiculous
Wow, that was so well played on the retail for fury up at the clock works against them
I gotta be honest. I lost track of that. Yeah, I lost track of the time to there
What a big round from EG to end up recovering there. I'll leave what around Brawams
Magic from the fucking water shot a perfect decision to go for a heavy flat retake the zero people retaking through that here
I think the denial there from Superman Superman get in the shoulder as well from each event
They can win this game. They can win this map at least
One more round one more out of the facts
Fastest fast say they have up here be careful double up a pressure cutting noise waiting it up at this time
There is resistance furia once more
Keep supporting it with just an upgrade onto that angle while the newt is engaging
There's a lot of pieces when he hears all that sound pressure once more paranoia is good
He's a huge kill!
No paranoia on retake!
Lighting fire straight into the back of the site, a hunter's fury to supplement and make sure that they keep them out of the picture once you're on to the top
Oh my god, no paranoia on retake, this is easy, he's round the loose
The plant is down
How do you win a 4v5 retake on a without the paranoia without the smokes?
Very tough
I
Such a good Molly to
It's fine
the hard bow there's exactly what we needed to see for eG it's an amazing
beginning to this match I think a hundred percent of the people are they
don't need anything more it's okay
it was a win-win for you last game last match and yet eG have come out with a
great game plan the players are actually on fire to supermen bow has had some huge
moments those guys nasty A4 is big bro
magic in the venue here today absolutely for eG and now we're gonna send it down
delicious starting by for every day. When this pistol. Thank you so much,
gentlemen. And yes, part of that magic is EG's ChimChim here, who usually with our
friends over at the LCS. You've joined us today on the side of the BCT
America's first off. Welcome. We've seen your watch parties. You love Oki's
trash talking, but now you are here in the building able to hear that
talking. It's amazing. The crowd is very much alive. I feel like we got a lot of
EG fans in here and Pio taking the front.
Yes ma'am.
I also have a little question.
These are y'all's champs?
Wait, what?
Oh, I'll talk to this guy.
We'll get back to that.
Oh my god.
But now that you're here, now that you've seen the game,
can you tell me, can we have anything?
They have to win now.
I don't know if I can see EG too well,
but like, I want to get nitty gritty specific.
Two million, two, what do they got right now?
Six?
Four?
Yes, yes, exactly. And that's exactly about it. But I know you have a little couple goodies over here
We for the for the audience here not a home. I'm so sorry guys
We have some goodies from evil geniuses to throw into the audience. So after you madam. Oh
Oh, yeah, that's it. Oh my goodness gracious. I know GB is usually when giving out free stuff, but here we go
That's a whole jersey. There's a whole jersey
Wait, can I have that? No, no, it's okay. That's fine. Good catch
Madam Ari, what do we have next? She doesn't seem happy to get the jersey and that bothers me a little bit
Guys, you make some noise for ChimChim if you want it, come on
If you want to easily win, you better make some noise for the stuff you're getting from EG
I want to hear you one more time
Thank you
Good talk
Maybe inspire you're gonna get a DM from Cloud9 very soon, brother
They're coming for your job, GB. They're coming for your job, tell you now, man
2-2 was saying are these your champions which it does very many people
fury are undefeated against America's teams yeah they ran through kickoff no
problems gama gama one round at a time a four half EG full control just need the
pistol the side of a calm pistol here obviously zero and two in the playoffs
DGZ, DGZ is a super myth you know paper X and BBL not only America's squads right now
EG look a little better off of star little man
Thank you very much
Sorry, let lemon
Start of this map
Pistol ran into the bonus doesn't get much better than that
I like this I like this from Omen neon right now. I really like our a aggression it
off
Part hasn't it you're right Alan is playing a game now they'd left the spike though complete in spawn
They might be worried that okay, I mean we just don't even know the spike is down here
This is gonna slow things down, but also look at these inserts over towards cnb. Yeah, what is this?
What can we do about this? We don't even know this guy's in the debon site
How much of the map fury have taken you're gonna be thinking to clear this area?
Calm of all people, you don't clear this.
I'm just so greedy.
You're patient. Yeah, it is. It is a bit greedy.
It's like a player there, though.
And he's just trying to speed things up, knowing that the team split up on the map.
It's Fury here, but they find themselves in a winning position now.
Spike planted.
So it could have been a big mistake leaving the spike back there, but,
okay, honest, I don't think quite spotted it.
And then we'll go down the one shot to the chest of this gun here, but...
With the player positions? Yeah!
It's just EU...
Waiting for the right time to try that pistol round to go to where furious is what they needed to get back on track
Even with an 8-4 lead at the half, it's not gonna be plain sailing for EG
All of their success so far has come back
Big individual moments as they got into the sites as well, but it's much harder to
Confuse your opponents on the defense side of haven't yeah, if you're looking to be slow
It's fine. We still have a game now.
You have to react, whereas Kong's calling so far has all been him in control of the game.
Where's Caesar?
Gamble stack here for EG.
To Jazeem, he's prime.
Posted up there with a Marshal.
What's going on?
Oh my god, he gets Maximill info off that.
Yeah, there's nothing to do with that, it's for immediate rotation, EG like, well okay,
they're probably gonna re-reacting air for back to that.
Yeah, I mean, EG might beat them here in the foot race.
Think of it as a move on, I don't think so, I'm not gonna be a che.
That's a little weird now, Chad, it is weird.
Yeah, just a spike has well come down.
No, no, no, no, no.
The build up paranoia is to be a little bit late for the party, so clean up, ordered up
by Furia.
Four players surviving.
Fuck, bro.
Bro the place only buys a marshal in this side smoke comes earlier. I thought it might get a bit
There's a world especially once you upgrade into a judge
Nearly had an opportunity to win the round
Yeah
It should have been seems right before disaster
Yeah, I don't know why there's no smoke here. This should be but whatever
But that's that's the whole point of the one guy with a lot of
You don't care if you drop the marker. It's actually better information. Okay, so the game begins. Let's go. EG knows they can compete
This is the round that EG needs to win though, to keep this advantage.
I do not die to this.
This is fast and loose by all of his training.
I do not die to this.
Yeah, fast garage controls is kind of a problem.
They have a lot of space very early.
You know, yeah.
Okay, we have two people here to be.
Bow is playing passive, Viper is alone at seed with Viper,
with Killjoy helping.
He was using a judge, and I know people are going to discredit him.
The good thing is they have no A space.
But if the quarter of you total surround them,
Paranoia excellent stuff. Oh, yeah, you can get tricky
That's around baby plan is immediately dissuaded
Aggression from a kid after doing very happy to make the plane the situation like a right. They're right brothers
Looking to save a guardian here
guardian no armor into the next round but all good you got the plan down anyway
so it's not like you're worrying about it's beautiful work he could not play
this any better than he did this was the one that EG had to win the only way to
deal with it was coming to him right there please send something fast and
aggressive towards me lock it in lock it in
fury work a little more of the set retake style on their defense yeah not
I think in the prime
By taking an aggressive timing shorter we have three people a
Faking
Yeah
Yeah, I guess
I'll just take the team fight!
Dart, Missed here, Oki is alone.
Whips it around, I think that's a mountain to the keyboard moment.
He's made the noise, dropping off that box too.
Fury, I know there's at least one defender here.
And I double pushed down mid, this is the info play.
EG going for it.
Oh, there's somewhere.
They have to make something happen.
Wait, no kills for Utah watching flank.
No kills for Utah watching flank chat.
Oki, just delayed apparently or something.
No, it's not, EG.
What the fuck?
Oh my god.
Broken immediately.
That's it.
He's been shooting today.
Fire on all cylinders.
Court on the timing though.
Superman will take his head clean off.
He's going to be making a lot more resistance than what I came from.
Nice try.
Nice try.
Almost.
Not almost though.
Good ideas within the 3v5.
I don't mind it.
I think they've been matching orbs.
I think they were just trying to make sure that they won't get squeezed from multiple
Wait, next round, if we save this gun, we can buy and off for DGZ, and then we went out.
Model, thank you for the tier one.
And UAC, thank you for the tier one.
Fine, we can still buy off, we can still buy off, and someone just buy Judge.
You definitely forced by into the next one, but superman's gonna have a bit of an awkward situation
He could pick up a judge, you know, digizine could pick up a judge and
Throw it in the other direction they go for the bucky instead actually
Furious no gonna be up against that
We could defense now
Have you stack of players in the appropriate position?
But there's gonna be a lot on their play here superman and bow looking up holding down and backing away
I'm spotted revealing quite a bit the fucking hand on this could do work superman. We'll see what they can do
Maybe I'm right flooded with like I
I think he's still sitting in front of you. I could take the A later, I'm on my way.
Yeah, yeah, I could have any going. Could have right-close low.
Maybe back-clot.
Please, come. Please, come.
Clean round, man. What a round, Superman.
I told you we needed him.
I just want to point out Superman's orb there.
So, throwing down the orb over towards C, really common play for these Vipers.
The all that he's using covers the whole area that he wants to play look at this
This third kill is insane
That's a very good one side of the smoke
Actual you're around
Oh, what a kill. Bro, he's our best player.
No smokes, Chaff. They have no fucking smokes.
We have not lost a piece of health. They have no smokes.
an insert here while they go to explore the rest of the map over towards the A.
If anyone on EG goes for a little...
Look at how separated they are, they have to miracle this round out of their assholes.
They're pretty well read in that that's going to be...
No, Jesus. Some. Some.
Like a shot of just...
Some.
Yeah, I mean, he's rattling off some communications and the rest of his team.
Seize presence.
Oh my god, big kill here. Don't let him go.
Oh, what a kill! Don't let him pass!
I'm on open line!
Big trade, big trade.
And he's inside that walking in.
This is close-pection.
That's that aggressive re-clear that we were actually looking for from Fury.
Wait, wait, wait, where are you guys going?
30 seconds left.
Okay, we know they're in there, we know they're in there.
But do you really want to throw it in?
Fucking Viper Alt and a 4v...
It's a difficult question.
I dare you, Ken.
Okay, let's plus.
Yeah, not a difficult question for him to answer.
Okay.
Zero hesitation.
But...
It's fun.
We retake out of heaven, we win.
We retake out of heaven.
Obviously, we're going to retake out of heaven.
Drone through that, we take out...
Yeah.
GG.
Nice try.
to really play around this pit.
Up and over the top, that's the Gigi you're going to be running through.
Somebody needs to trade that one out.
And what are you going to do here on this ult?
He drops down, mid-jolate, removes adds in his pit still in their faces,
but Nerv's surely spotted out now.
Then looser that snake pipe.
Surely not long for the ward account.
Please calm.
Dodging and ducking and winning, but finally it's his match.
We win the game.
He puts a stop to it.
Put him down in a fuse, you're going to lock him for that,
and short around as yours.
I think Gigi, you're just feeling hot of the world right now.
They've really got big moments, and the confidence they go for the point to Furia.
I gotta say too, Furia, recently...
Yo, Vowz, by the way, Vowz played this game in comparison to what he was doing in the last time they played Haven.
They look sluggish.
Yeah.
And it's actually EG who are...
He's not throwing his life away, not taking random 1v1s that beat.
Or increasing it with some of these...
You had the first Bloods that Calm and Vow gave up last time they played Defense.
This is like night and day.
Was not expecting this whatsoever.
EG is a team.
Maybe they'd love as well to get off to a very strong start as you see.
Come on, baby.
Come on, baby.
No problem.
Spacey was looking forward.
Doesn't want to be caught out into the open there.
He's only got a judge as well.
A lot of ult's online on the side of Fury, but it's about converting it.
Passes a point when you're already a player down.
play it down come on gonna be looking to commit oh my god we're playing retake on
the sea I like this it takes see it's fine we play heavy be heavy a heavy be
heavy a I like this a lot
tp though committed us info all some information someone break drum oh my god
chat oh my god track oh my god see the gunplay again rifles well trained
You're ready for it now. That's what I'm showing you. There's no instant reaction
Okay, just gonna watch from the wings now, but now look at the see if they can set this one for better pace in motion
The blind is perfect. It leaves it into the disease hands 1v2
Cutting noise slowing it down walking through the motions, but just trying to hunt out where these players could be
I think so the guy back side you could be in trouble
Oh my god!
Nice kill!
Yo he said Kani to the shadow round.
It's a great shutdown in the end for me you.
Another little stutter step throws off the Shizin team.
But man that first shot was beautiful too.
That was a believer.
And each of the two players absolutely won.
One alive, one alive not dead.
Their money's still broke.
Their money's still like really dead.
Here you see the double-edged nature of going for that mid-round aggression though.
Three players on a wall drop.
You know if instead they just offensively stacked B if that was their read they would have crushed that
EG's read was correct. They died you can't blame that read at all. I like that they were getting proactive even in a 5v4
It's not done yet for EG. They're trying to stay out of the round
It's inspiring we'll take five buckys get one kill all of a sudden we have symbols
Please don't let this work. They saw Superman get a clip and they were like I want in if there's any justice in the world
It's gonna work. It's gonna work. It's gonna work.
Tell you this guy.
Why do you think they're gonna delay though?
Yeah, we'll probably be about that.
We're not gonna solo ult here, right?
They have five buccies. They have to jump at this lockdown.
You have to.
They do.
Like you literally can't play retake.
They're trying to hatch some eggs.
Hold on.
Fuck it.
In the corner.
Good stun connects.
This is it. Go on.
Jump on it.
Jump on it!
Oh my god!
That's the video game you are using.
Get on it.
in not even the game we know anymore and again I think this is just for buying
five it's gonna be good investment though actually the lockdown on such a
tricky economical round like this where you know that you do at least they're
gonna be buying some level of this kind of stuff getting it into a sporting
show I mean it's dangerous even in the first place to try to get it into short
but yeah I was in ultimate should secure them a nice round victory here goes to
shows off fury they don't have any breathing room here willing to commit
ults even if they're up against the eco don't blame them this is the haram
era a human here there we go rather than the spike because he needs to get his
lockdown online and so Bow has got the option of playing retake on one of these
sites against fury normally squad maple thank you
but we saw com read into that on the previous half yeah is there a pause
coming in.
These people are locked up for EG.
They are two rounds away from winning the map, but also two rounds away from being a
tight game.
Absolutely.
You're just saying you're not locked up.
Yeah, you're good.
I'm Luke.
In terms of where you want to play Retake, but not all clear-cut.
EU's got an ult at his arm.
Yeah.
No pause.
Careful about that kind of thing.
You don't want to...
Okay, bow.
Killjoy ults.
They have silver ults, unfortunately, so we can't play off it.
at some point you know notes as well fuck we have all we have defense off
yeah but it's done plays out a bit of a back it makes a difference
they've been taking only garage as free as they like the deep alarm well look at
that low key this is very annoying it changes exact like anything you can do
they might not be expecting Alan to be tucked all the way up here if you go for
I'm kind of
Reclining a garage
Okay, Reactive Hotness Area on that one to draw me a new view
Side steps, it's worse for the wear but he's still alive and that's the important element
Yeah, that would have been such a nice pick for EG to get
Yeah
Because it would have allowed him back to the same level as Lockdown
He set up DG's in top A
Why do we have to re-A?
It's about that minimark
Nobody's really clear garage at any point and Alem's got this info
Stack of bodies over towards A
DTP into the back at that side. We lost. We've given them all the information.
Koala noob. That we just lose. Course for the committal.
Very heavy pushdown on the flank as well. Yeah.
So, committing...
Ah, I mean, this garage control they have is cooked, man. This early garage.
But he's stuck, he's stuck, he's stuck, chap.
He gets out!
He's touching and weaving, and he's still there, I guess.
Oh, man. He's gonna take a bite. Bullets.
Oh, my God, I'm just gonna strangle everybody up towards it.
Down to the bottom of the little bit of time and space for all that stuff is good.
This is absolute carnage these players have been put into a bloody blender.
It's such a wild lockdown positioning, man.
But about Ripsy's lockdown from like grass.
Yeah. And it barely does anything.
I mean, I guess it gives you garage control.
I like this, man.
All of the Furia players responded to something quite unusual very well.
Look at this lockdown in the replay.
It just forces the Furia players to get on site and EU gets to lean into what he loves doing most
which is taking these long-range fights with a Vandal.
EG maybe playing a little too cleverly for their own good there at no point going for the garage
Reclear. Damn what broke is the problem man. Which I think is a little egregious. We need another
miracle round I guess. Baron and eco round and this game is going to get tied up. Yeah.
I was hearing this a good seemingly over, right?
They figured out like Ardzin has just done a great job.
They got a lot of confidence from how well they played last split as well, going, or
kickoff, going into Santiago.
They played decent.
Well, actually they lost to PaperX in some way.
I don't know if I like
I think if I had to sum up this haven game so far
and it takes a lot of their mistakes, I don't know
I just played good coaching, good IGL
and then people like Kuala and Ali are just insane
they're stepped up
there's, you know, they're having their moment
all of them honestly, Yves had his moments, Nervz had his moments
are you missing out on playoffs? Yeah, certainly. We have been touched on the bigger picture.
Bradley, they were from the EG.
Look at this is one of the harder matches for us. But Alina's just been the same.
Yeah, that's a victory. I mean, it sets you up so much better for a playoffs run. Couldn't
make all the difference. Making playoffs.
This is such a big kill. You don't understand if you get out here.
kill going his way it's a major first this opens up flank routes as well we
can triple push a here I would love that and then big flight oh my god they're
doing it they're stacking a number of rounds like this for EG you is taking a
bit of a risk here you can hear bow big orb oh boy
furious oh my god that this is seeing the sova didn't make the a guys move at
This is huge
You know you're gonna be stacking somewhere, and it's probably gonna be Cora, but you can't really tell yet
How could easily be jump spotting for the rest of the speaking be
Around here
My god, oh my god, this read is perfect. This is it
Stack of bodies. This is 25 seconds. I find a spike is still down
of my window.
That fake is going to pull everybody back to A.
There's not a lot of time, someone's going to get the spike.
What is the spike? Seconds, that's what I'm saying man.
Time. They've got a bit of space though, Furia.
I'll play.
Surely this is it, they're going to lock this one up entirely.
TTP as well, get some into position.
A flood though with that time pressure.
TG to one's crumbling and melting underneath all of it.
They've got the gun to the right for the job. Barely handled in time, but Furia.
Account for it all.
Jossy XCP in front.
Well played, well played. Well played to...
period.
They figured out...
They just hit the site, they...
led me on hat.
They figured out where the stack wasn't.
last chance to EG really to win this map. Could they get things into overtime if they lose?
Maybe, but their economy is not going to be in a great spot. This round right here,
this is the most important one. EG still has so vaults. That's what's annoying. Oh my god, he's
dead. No. That's way for the swing before we walk down there.
Just fish it out
What a tough position for EG now to be lost the timing the turret
3v4 a Lambo blocks come from making a play
But it's gonna go for something a superman
Hold on could take a time in there out of
They don't have anyone outside either kind of crunched in here position, but they have lost control of main
All three players
Backside is uncomfortable of a B plant. Yeah, my eyes are on superman honestly because he has been the playmaker for EG
I'm committing to the main angle instead. He's gonna be because he killed it before space
Look at this. What a weird postman is really strange. I don't like this run period
Really no
Strikes them down where they stand. It leads into the hands of Superman. He's been good
But I each you know against him now
Yes, I get the consolation prize of a kill on koala new but at the end of the day
It's Buria up to 12
Devastating opening to this round
We said it was the most important one for each if they wanted to try to close things out
And that slide from Alim at the beginning. Oh, he honest was throwing a smoke at the start of the round
So he's actually
Around and Alim's already passed it. Oh, he does what he can. He trades up the next. Oh my god
He had so much momentum, bro
Oh my gosh, why are you 25 and 15? Why are you moving couldn't do anything in that spot?
You're getting great performances out of super and why are you moving?
And yet it's my point for fury. I guess heartbreaking for easy
Look at the money look at the body
I mean it's a scrap together assortment and isn't this one of the things that fury it does best double outlaw and an op on
They're sober to try to put
So hard to win now
That was position is really annoying though. Like this position allows these guys to play doubles see the whole time
Even if they play garage, the rotates don't have to be fast
Which allows these three to play, you know, wherever they want
In this case, I guess that is the change up isn't it the fact that you kill Joe's gonna judge
Now so if I can go towards be after breaking that drone. That was his entire job. We need the century
Huge, huge, use the ult to get out. The fear of the ult gets him out.
Vi'ly 4 com has to be bomb sighting. Vow has all of C. Alarm bot's still not broken in
garage. Furious entire success is based on this garage control which they aren't doing.
Which actually fucked us
Bowie's gonna win this round, surely
It's all EG's to take it
Oh my god, Vipers, it's not so not going to win
Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, free kill
Bowie's gonna be squeezed by these players
He hears the sound, and now takes the shots
Time 30 seconds left
EU under Spheria's even cleared away
Superbun
From the Brinky
Are you gonna try to win the round or what?
Or the reality of a Furia
They're gonna look at this one in dismay
This is going all the way.
What an incredible round to clutch things from the very break for EG.
I thought they'd thrown it away.
8-4 up, 6-0 lead.
And they let Furia get to map point first, but even with a broken bar, they found the moments.
The play from Dizzy Zing, I think, is the biggest difference between these two teams so far.
With that level of I'm gonna go and make a hero play and then turn this around and be aggressive on the defense side and then the patience for 10 points.
Yeah, I'll take the electrocon.
He didn't feed into Lobby Shred afterwards.
No.
And Alan has had a great game so far, but not much of it was based around the defense side often.
And he's gonna pull this out again to look down towards C Long to start the round.
He's 28 and 15 trust man, it's how long you need this guy.
We got a lobby for free basically every time.
Which is what that level stack is.
They have 2A, there's no high load this time around, which we love.
No free kills for QualiNu, gets tagged, we take Zulus for free.
Oh my god, the amount of A pressure we've had is make them play 3A.
This is very good, this is a very good shot, this is very good, well played round so far.
Really good A pressure. Really good A pressure, we've been holding C and we see split, down first C split here.
did they do the same here he has spine this is fine this is fine because we have
alarm on it doesn't matter that they're ending with yes yes yes yes yes yes and
that puts everything on island again we pressure there on his shoulders so back
plant position he's asking his fucking dumb ass ponytail let's go
It's all on Allen. What can he do we overstays?
They could be flinched!
Please please, come come come come come come come!
I fucking cannot stand this shit.
He's lying.
He's sleeping!
He's sleeping!
Revealed!
There's a mana!
It's Dizzy and Ochi.
If we're not sure of their flank, why aren't we taking one of them flanks in the front
of us?
Just don't scream.
Just hold it.
Hold it from the angle.
The box.
The double box.
Tom should be here holding the flank from the double box beside this guy.
Necessary work.
So calm.
I mean, he has been a monster.
It's unreal.
Two players top of the scoreboard for EG.
You've been saying their names a whole, wow, Superman, Dijazine, between them, 56 kills.
Uh-huh.
Yup.
That's ridiculous.
Game five, game five, Kyrie and LeBron.
Oh, they've spun through the wall.
Somebody try and put a bit of a stop and stunt, the fury attack over the woods, eh, lobby?
Well, I knew knocked down to half HP, and he was a player that's been falling early in
some of these rounds.
Was it game six?
Oh, shit.
That was game five and they drop both for drop 40 and game five
This has been a slow map so far for both of these teams
Game five. Okay, you guys don't know shit, bro. Very cautious
Only LeBron dropped 40 in game six
All good this it's all good. You're not there yet stay alive in this map
It's a nice thing from Superman
It'll give time for these a players to come around
around it. I think Enchi will play in the B defense pretty aggressively before. Yeah.
We should be committed to what Fury we're looking for now. I agree with the plan.
First down, no real push by Gallimson to the back of that site.
He lied to the side, he cuts it up, cross that placement.
There's no, they're playing off. Not even high enough.
Free ball time, they're playing off.
They're trying to copy comparison, it's perfectly crossed him up.
Yeah. Absolutely.
Shunt down, it's a shame back and forth.
Too hard, Fury. Too hard, I can, I can really,
I can really back into more passive positions, but these kills are being claimed regardless.
Okay, I get onto that high guard,
it needs to be a trade and it's there,
Digicine, straight on it.
They're stuck guys.
Action here from him, 2v2.
Smokes are still propped up and time
is becoming a bit of a problem here.
It's time to see if they can pull out the next wave
of resistance, Ejido.
It's got it in there, control.
And this needs to be denied,
it's the 3v3 stuck all the way.
Digicine, savior once more for them.
In OT they drag it across the line here,
but it's open in map.
He's still good. He's still good.
Not only is that a major win for EG, his balls are heavier than that fucking chain, man.
He's now at advantages on their opponent's map pick too.
Fury wanted to take this to Haven, and EG outplayed them.
I mean, even in the final moment there, 30 HP on the board and Dijazine still lands.
An enormous kill. Drops 30 overall in those...
What a fucking performance from him and Superman.
I want to see the celebratory moment. I want to see the celebration.
Can I just see the winning moment?
The way they skip it.
Here we go.
Yo!
He is automatic!
Damn!
Fuck that!
He is automatic
Damn stop now
Look at him, bro
Calm 7 kills, his calling was good, attack side, calling was solid, 8-4 half as well.
At least the calling was good, end of the day, that's what matters, it's his job.
Amen, that's a big win, going into Pearl which is EG's map pick by the way.
There is a world chat.
is a world here. If EG win this game, they play Send Next. Oh my god. It could be the
beginning of a run.
I
I
Sanders is 100 thieves
Not this fuck ass song again. You don't like this song. That's unlucky. They max it out
Bro easy can win this game
You lost 40 subs when he turned up the volume?
No he didn't dude.
He's just pushing, he's trying to be made now by Asinah, I don't think he's going to allow for that to happen right away, get some self-safety.
Here are the Coaches of Evil Geniuses, Potter. Now Potter, come to the front, stand right here.
right here because you have just delivered Furia's only fifth map loss in the entire America's like
entire year. What was the method to your madness? Uh, well they helped us out by picking Haven. We
got a lot of good stage practice on it last week and I mean Faw and Douglas were farming. They were
farming. They were having fun. Um, and that's setting us up perfectly from that too. That's
That's looking up to you.
And you heard it there.
Furia drops a map, something that we have not said much
at all this season outside of those losses
they took internationally.
So it goes to show you just how significant
this victory was, but it is only map one.
Of course, EG picks up the victory 14 to 12.
Let's dive into what we saw there.
Because there were a couple of big things to take away.
I mean, we could talk about Superman.
to talk about this isn't I do want to yapp about superman for a minute though
because my guy lived permanently on that seaside of the map never like that
little corner is like a little chair back there yeah a little lounge chair you
know maybe a little bookshelf he set himself up a homo today it's amazing he
has a nice little hut yeah yeah I think that makes sense because I think that's
one of the main reasons for EG's defense being so good was super anchoring on
on that site being able to get so many of those picks
that he required in order to shut it down
for the rest of the team.
It felt so good watching EG on that defense too.
They were so solid with what they wanted to do.
Their rotations were on point,
and a lot of information fit were pretty good.
And those are concerned that we had going into this map.
We said that it would probably go the way of Fyria,
but you see how EG made these adaptations
going into the defense as well.
It was very dominant,
and you are utilizing those pieces
strong last time, but we're not enough to close it out.
Did you see him that is getting a lot more aggressive of being a lot more
present on that A side and then you also have a superman that is just insane.
Yeah, it's like both sides of the map are pretty much held down on A and on C and
the aggression like you said was so good and I think too that lucky clip that
super hat was kind of insane, but I feel like we should have seen this coming
guys. You know why? Why? Because the assistant coach won the
with scrimmage.
That honestly, man.
Wait a second.
We should have seen it.
We should have seen this coming.
It was in the stars the whole time, right?
No, it is important though to note,
like what we were seeing was just incredible output
from two specific players, right?
Digizin as well as Superman.
And Superman, he typically does pop off on Haven.
It's been a pretty good map for him.
But Digizin, we were waiting to see, you know,
we always thought he's got that output.
He's an incredible slayer in his own right.
But this time around, he was really getting that job done on that hit, Tremity.
It just looked so good, because he was able to get set up a lot more.
You see a lot of what they were certainly with last time is taking space and holding that space,
both on attack and on defense. And here, they fix those issues.
They know that their approach cannot be so passive. It needs to be playing forward.
And utilizing, again, DD's been the player that likes to go in.
Yeah, yeah, and even like the clutches, the amount of clutches that both these players have been in.
has been insane and for Supo we talked a little bit about this just seconds ago but his holds
were insane with all usage made it so annoying to play against when you're on that attacking
site trying to get in and his util uses just in general has been so beneficial for EG being able
to re-take being able to post that. So now if you heard this theory coaches out today how come
come though.
That's his map.
Yeah.
Cause this is literally his bread and butter.
Viper on Haven playing back site on C in a little hut.
He's just so good at it.
Yeah.
Well, the question is, okay, can he maintain that?
Should we?
Oh, should we?
Okay.
For what?
For Jboy, I think it was fine.
It's gonna be tough to do it back to back but it is possible even his talent
This could be an e g2o if they continue not an accident actually wild
But of course it's fury and you can never count out fury and there are a lot of things working against his squad
But let's go ahead and hear what's up with the assistant coach. We got Camino standing by had a map to
Here the assistant coach of fury we give her a well wishes to Shaw who is recovering right now
I want to ask you I just talked to Potter and she said that part of that one was because you chose Haven
Was that part of how you lost that map or was it something else?
I don't feel like we had a good drafts and a good game plan.
I just feel like we joined the server a little bit.
Not so hot like in the victories, like we wasn't having a good time.
So pretty much like in the second half we were able to fix it.
And hopefully in the second map we are just joining in the better shape that we later in this first map.
Best of luck.
Feel better, Sean?
And of course that's right, wishing nothing but a speedy recovery for Coach Shaw.
That being said though, let's go ahead and focus on map 2 and you heard what the assistant
coach there, Fury, was talking about there.
Speak up?
You literally just said they got up to a slow start, that's all.
We had a slow start.
We weren't really getting what we wanted here.
That's fair.
That's all well and good.
But what I was seeing was two players on the EG side that were controlling the game
entirely, no matter what the other side was doing.
That is so important from beginning to end. But yeah, you do see a very slow start for curia
I was a 0-6 where you know, they keep winning rounds and we kept looking at each other
They end up closing it out and overtime and I think this is good to warm up and also to go into the map that is
Miss Vicky's baby should always has coming up was incredible. This is the map that we were talking about curia saying how you're pretty much perfect
Yeah, so I
I mean they picked it right it's insane like I wonder what you do pick this
EG picked Pearl which is wild which is why I'm so confused but I'm wondering if
they've cooked up something because that's how Potter likes to look in the
shadows and just like be creative and pounce I just have this vision of Potter
and what should Ryan just play like I know what you're doing all right well
let's see how this one shakes out EG are better than I am
to zero over Fioria can they close it out or will Fioria manage the force a
little worse trust me have the action commencing in just a little bit Brennan
side you will see on the other side
exactly meco you know it
This is my third time asking, I ask you don't piss me off, I can't lie, you starting to
piss me off.
Did you watch Project Hail Mary Peaks in cinema?
Yes I did.
It's an 8.5 out of 10.
to it and EG up one map in this series against Furia.
This has subverted everybody's expectations,
goes about saying.
Slightly better than the F1.
And in the beginning, this is one of the first games
where Furia have not been the underdogs coming into it.
I wonder if that's played a part of the role.
But for EG, they picked Pearl heading into the second map
against Furia, given what they saw if you're already.
I mean, Furia had no slouches on this map.
Not at all.
They were running over it.
One like a 6.8.
They dominated one of the best teams in the world on Pearl
only last week.
So I know the desk said that it's a little bit confusing
They were sizing maybe potters got some kind of that's you think can return to T1
Yeah, if you full commit yourself not have been at the end of this, but ever here
Like you've eaten a big table. Yeah for sure. He's too talented. Yeah, I would not have been surprised by that
So I think just are you nervous to the arsenal game this weekend? Yes
nervous enough not even want to talk about it
Any more favorite the close out the series that the scoreline would suggest they are
Sorry if I'm shooting, I'm not, I apologize.
Do you think the Odyssey movie will be good?
You know what's funny?
First of all, my expectations are obviously really high,
because this is a first-of-a-movie, but...
I was arguing with my chat the other day,
and they actually think Doom 3 will be better than Odyssey.
Both teams run these slumbered levels.
Yeah, it was a real cautious game from both teams here, but...
Let's get started.
Little rapid star by any means.
Here you're gonna be able to take up control towards B.
Long and fading like this is a full-on hit.
Just so Alim is not leading that charge.
A bit of supplementary util to refract back to safety.
This is a really good fake by them.
Actually, not good enough.
Alim even...
You're gonna get out of the box.
Wait, this is a no.
This is a no.
It confirms it's a fake.
They should have gone way quicker.
Here you should have gone quicker.
Big kill!
Big kill!
More ribs!
I'll kill you!
Slice round winnig kill
Instant response EU is caught once more just trying to follow up on all of it and he strong starts
We said it was necessary for eG. They're looking like they're keeping it going
No, no, no guys guys guys guys guys. Okay, you take it easy
He had against okay, he's gone down, but that's a mistake
Okay, good thing is eG is piled up together can we remand push remand push art remand push art
Can't just sit here with dick in hand expecting one player B
We lost a bit more winnable deep down into Maine
A bit of presence from EG even in not moving anybody just yet, especially considering that fury are really beef that opening
Too late on the genuine a main take of the back of Alums fake
This is now pretty I don't think so strong EG to
the track record for a personal and it's too good
don't see it happening
there you go
it's going to be a pull onto the spike as well to add even more pressure in terms of the time
EG you've got to speed this up get a bit of a move on
already you can see it
not one
time ticking onto that spike moving to more passive positions to pull
it's going to be used as an early kill
Claims and now the squeeze being placed on the island he's gonna try box this way out fighting past it the stick
This rookie has become a phenom in the last couple weeks
What have they been feeding him since Santiago? What the hell was that Allen was a very serviceable
Serviceable player during kickoff. He was not the star of the show
Oh my god, the last couple of weeks he has been
What was this he's got laser accuracy of the classic
Locked in at disbelief in the booth
Believe it because once you land that first-goal skill on the nerve
Yeah
No, no, they're fixed
Marshall in the hands of the Dishwasinian, it is that we could buy a ZG, they ended up losing that round.
Still though.
That's a big fucking stun, by the way.
Okay, honest, come on, you have to make up for last round, you fucked up, you know it.
down entirely
second round out on top of fury
fairly clean
three rifles being able to be saved into that bonus
qualanube two away from getting his phoenix ult on line
not impossible that he could play for it in a pre-plant position but
imagine that most of the time that's going to be used
if it is in this round
that's all good
that's a nice shot from nerf
very clean with the guy
What are you doing? How are pinnure chips?
That's how it's done.
From Miss Vickies.
Well EG have not done the fastest start going here.
Alan's incredible play has left him down 0-2.
But this round, you've got to put it on the board.
When you're the underdog in spots like this, you're a grown-ass A.G.A.
and believing yourself to be able to push things to OT.
I think you've got to just start faster than early.
Yeah.
5A, Okie, come on, Okie, come on, Okie, come on, Okie, come on, Okie.
That is big from you, brother.
Better shot.
We hold on a lot of all these other dudes will be in use to see if they can really come out of power
when they do eventually remove it, shredded by the bullets.
Aiming control, giving up the nez and Koala did now earn top to that precious ultimate.
Yeah.
And a good player actually to give Phoenix all online.
This is now an incredibly wonderful round for Furia.
The run-up back is ready.
How does Artzin want to call this?
All right.
Okay, they cleared Art, which is good.
That's just good.
Fuck, man.
I mean, I don't mind it because Artzin should die here.
All he has is a Guardian.
Fear left.
You obviously know he can be there.
Do I take it out?
Should I hide from the President's quality over here?
Artzin?
Yes.
No awareness.
Come on, man.
No, I think he can be there.
The only thing that's going to be there.
Now, EG, just drift back into this, but play it as advantage.
And this is so tough to win for EG.
Yeah, it's not possible.
Way harder than the pistol retake, either.
Time's going to be good.
EG, got to hit some nice shots.
Tap.
They tap a pull.
Look at these players.
They're raring to go.
Tromp into the business, and then getting involved.
And then one of those shots, it's good.
Like, normal, not good enough.
Too many players who account for too much to deal with there,
and a bonus conversion for Furia,
getting off to a raring start.
Really good setup to be able to feed Koala and move that ultimate before they got in.
And I liked the little twist of going for the fake hit into A,
and then a genuine re-hit.
Furia decided they didn't want to anchor,
they wanted to re-explore just in case.
Furia decided not to go for the re-hit, they were rotating.
We're cooked.
Adizine handles them, yeah
Excuse me
How was that brother?
Four buckys on defense for each
We've seen that round on Haven
It fell to pieces a little bit against the lockdown, but Adizine does not have that one in his back pocket again
He's got the outlaw
He's got the outlaw in his pants
Okay, and they are gonna be paying for it I think
Oh, it's Phil. We're back to
today. Abyssal rain guns are going to be
about about about about. It's on you.
I don't really have a gun to test this.
Yes, sir. Perfect. Yes, good drum.
That's annoying. I was going to be pulling
straight back out of that. So that's information cut away.
But again, 2-2 we've run out of course control, possibly Devine's gonna be committed as well, just to see if he can site this one.
You have to get the skill, free kill.
See you later.
Big kill. Big round one.
I heard you weren't playing right.
Yeah, I do.
Twice I saw Mike 50-50 with it. I mean that's that's a good start
The angles that they're playing and the way the superman's doing it inside the stops as well
Jumps out, but then dips back into the smoke of the jumps. We've got to be that's already told me
Yeah, I do I do want to see in the crisis and just fires back
Thank you some of these angles as well like the one that comes home in back holes
Not come sorry, but thank you
Yeah, but also just incredibly hard to clear it keep this momentum. That's it
We win this round. They're broke. We win this round right here. They are broken shit and we're back to even
Similar with the game plans defense side. It's a tax letter map fury if I'm taking a main control
He just meant perfect positioning. That's right. So one more shot here through this. Yes, sir
Let Rick cross the A site. Alina's one HP. It's all good. Sit up
If it's 18 here Alan is going to be quite low towards the back of the site
Shotgun in the hands just for that judge and there's a way every very good retell though
I like that from super. I love that from super actually. I don't just like it
Oh the timing has been made!
Oh the timing has been made!
In control of the situation
It's good work from there right to pull back here, but the rest run over you ready
Now surely this is not another 1v3 for a Furia player.
Come on, take our time.
I like this.
Ah, see buddy, he's a good player.
What? That from us, man?
Nobody colliding, like you know what I mean? No one's lining up.
Nice conversion in that round from EG.
I definitely thought Combs drone had been timing there.
But he must have caught a tiny glimpse and cancelled it.
Yeah.
Because he got the punish perfectly.
A little bit of overcooking, I should say, from Furia.
I think they're trying to get ahead of the lockdown play
They're just paying the lockdown retakes so they're trying to fight
That next wave of things is just spawned
But they get Haniel
Take that I guess
I'm really surprised Kha'an didn't die here
I thought Haniel would die
I thought the drone, I thought he knew he would know what the guy's close up
Kha'an did though
Could we spot him on the minimap moment?
Dujizin has the op again
Kha'an got his ultimate
Ars is in, killjoy ult, they have Phoenix ult, Neon ult
It's still weird round hard round to win even though it's a low buy
Art split with free aiming control
It's fine fine another side fight retake
It's fine
It's actually fine
into the corner, so I'm saying a prayer I think here.
Well played, Supa.
Actually well played, man.
He's gonna be gone both ways.
Old team are being expended at that rate
of the spirit and trying to leave a path.
And it's gonna be covered up by majority of his players.
No, no, no, you did that.
How the hell did that happen?
It's possible it's an astral form somehow,
but the coverage was there over the shoulder,
and then the left.
He didn't get a gun from Supo?
Free trade?
Just like that, in a good spot, locked down.
So they're gonna be committed.
They feel like they are crashing into the corner
and it gets used when I, besides, drop down
That's just a top tier smoke.
Ah, Okie has to get one brother, I'll be honest.
Any time that Furia increase the tempo, they look like the better team, but when EG can slow things down or if Furia play passively, that's when EG have their wing conditions.
I mean at some point I feel like Furia have got to recognize this, especially when the sideswap and we go to D-Files.
That's a tough round to lose. That was the momentum round right there. And they used both walls. That is sad.
pretty clear communication well to some degree they're very high tempo
communication but yeah a couple of the comms listeners that we saw one of them
was Arnazine that other people just shut up sure yeah that was that was one of the
exceptions but you I mean I need Okie to get out of his own head and start gaining
that yeah I need him to start gaining you're fucking way left just start
gaining yeah go for that one kill in tpy don't try to do too much playing off
each other genuinely I mean there's synergy with each other and how they push
how they, by his normally top notch. And so far the game plan with Urea it doesn't need to change,
it hasn't needed to change, it's been pushed back to EG, they haven't been fighting for
A main control, nothing like that. Just farm up the Orbs. Yeah, I don't know how many Orbs
is added to this point, but it's a lot. I think he's up 2 already and 6 are out. Yeah, they're
now 2 away from the next, so pretty clear game plan. Yeah, it really does feel like EG
missing something fundamental to me around the A main fight in particular.
B is a bit harder to fight now that we don't have Yoru in these team compositions.
Yeah, that's very true.
You could still make it work with the Wailite, but if you're wrong you've ended up burning
a ton of utility early.
But the AMA fight is just standard.
Already current art split.
EG haven't really shown us that.
Unlucky.
Not even in a round like this.
I think Furia expecting an adjustment from the time.
If I'm right-handed it just dies for free.
I'm just gonna be caught.
All good.
Just trying to help out.
It's gonna be cool. Oh good
It's slow down arts and takes all the space it's another free kill
I got in his hands
Shuts it down and cleaves through them with that rifle aim
Even time for a bit of that min-maxing towards the end, and handed off a bleeped quality.
Just got an ult for the next.
Good min-maxing.
Yeah.
Gliding here though.
That wasn't quick enough with the trades.
I'm not a fan of that plan.
No.
Alan.
Someone's now immediately running straight back.
We're like potentially...
He's just not playing with fire right now.
barely lying and scuffling away here but a slight gap in the smoke is all E you need so
up to five rounds they do but up to pretty critical ultimates while they're at it
Fury are taking the lead piece by piece here back to a light around
that's one of those spots by the way where obviously he needs to be peeking a lot further away from the ankle
he knows that they're on a light by his opponents you have to take those fights as far back as you can
to avoid getting directed by the Buckeys and the Judges
This round is about Koala and he was ultimate again.
Nope.
Yeah, certainly. I don't want to see what a justice he'd be making.
We already passed.
A couple of pings over towards A main.
Now there's five seconds left and you do need to buy.
There we go.
Added in an Allen, remember?
Okay.
Guns, winning rounds.
All good.
EG looking to re-fight into A main perhaps?
This setup isn't an unusual one.
They don't have any deep Astro stars or anything, but...
Similar struts.
Fade a low name in. Everyone else, arc splitting.
Fuck.
They have Phoenix ults and they're doing it again.
They have Fade ults as well this time.
This is a big kill.
This is a big kill.
and Russian
at his disposal and the explosion of UT wants to get the hell out of there
Russian, Russian
Rekhort, barely targeting
chopping away the heals but Furia
managed to really just attack
so as they found the ganks, they found the weak points
and they are going to capitalise
Just fucking watch the guy you need
You know he's a low at that spot honestly
I think most players would be caught by that
You got double dualists there that are so easy to gap close
with Digizine and Okiana
somehow you still scuttles around the corner
corner and what a what a decision from fury in this round when it's so
obviously you would be wanting to play around the Phoenix ultimate instead
they contact all the way through our they're really slow giving no noise cues a
really nice mix-up that's completely thrown EG off this was a thing that we
were doing so damn well against energy is that other side of the time out energy
would have an idea of what they wanted to change and they would get one step
ahead they would already prepare for it trying to get ahead of the adjustments
adaptations might be about on C9 asking is a fan yeah you're cooked I know you're
done yeah I told you I was reading for you all the way back pick actually yeah
they need to get this is inactivated to if you can get an operator into his hands
they've had enough in his hands a couple of rounds actually but he just hasn't
been in the right place at the right time that's the difficulty but I think you
really can't be winning with this guy at the bottom of the scoreboard it's just
not going to be a possibility. The EG win conditions as we've seen them so far in this
year off, the EG is going nuts. Have you seen your calendar Oxy? Or you know, occasionally
like a big format on somebody like Bauer or Oki, but in general it's an EG supplement
show. Going for it. With some nice calling. That's what we saw on Haven. The money is really
very strange here for EG but he haven't managed to get a couple of rifles in the plate
throw them towards the box
bit similar to pistol round play here, neon fake on B
as quality once again walks towards art
very similar, I think with that tarot contact they've realised
well they're not going to have anything over towards art
potentially players holding it
yeah it could be in a lot more
tarot contact and they're going to flash
but no one's going to be pushing that deep surely
well ok I'm just thinking about it but he's not quite aggressive enough to walk into the trap
Oh, they're just ready for this mid-retake.
Come on, Okie.
Same exact shot. It's time to have Neon remaining as well.
What?
No, no, no, no.
He gets followed up on beautifully and Koala Noob's Molly is perfect too.
Koala Noob, after he comes out with his ultimates thinking, do I turn around to look at a flank here?
And his team makes a call, no, we're about to commit into a big fight behind this Fade-on.
What do you say, taking Mandarin classes?
Just to make sure I can go to every region.
to find both of those kills.
Colin, it was right behind Red to collect.
You're dying on Molly, brother!
Come on!
Ha ha ha ha!
All right, we have to win.
What the hell's going on over there?
This is a really, really difficult situation for EG,
as the underdogs, they hate being down like this.
Yeah, you do.
You want your initial game plan to work,
like you did on Hangler.
Those are the maps where you have the biggest chance
of winning the game.
Once you guys are out, chances of being able to rally back
against a team that's by all evidence better than you.
I don't know who's-
You write out this year and then building up Phoenix
after Phoenix out.
I just don't see-
He's out at your one every three rounds, you know?
So he's got another one cooking.
I just don't see any hope.
It's a really good spot.
But they've already given themselves a great cushion
to work with.
Every time you fix a mistake, another one pops up.
It does, however, look like we're going to load this.
Like a-
It's like the snake heads of a Hydra, you know what I mean?
Except in the worst way possible.
Gonna pull it back now.
I have a lead in terms of the map.
First one going your way, but you can't let it slip.
Lotus is on the side of who the hell knows.
But for Fury right now-
It's been real though.
Firmly in the driving seat.
Why ending? Thank you for the prime though.
Weak of money as well, let's see the chip.
Element of Fury's game.
I was gonna be throwing the outlaws into the next one miracle time. Oh, this is the koala noob farming round
Yeah, it's gonna be looking to see if you can back him up
I mean if we can get more
I'll find that perfect window opportunity just pass that for our work. They have no lurker
They have no lurker
Okay, yeah, they have to go to be here they have from the people to shake
He's caught into the corner. So there's the molly open over the top
Oh, I'm sure he would have just been burnt through Chris
I'm all out of mists because they have been falling prey through those bucky plays quite a lot. Yeah
Sam thank you. That's your honor. Thank you. Thank you. They meant so much noise over here towards be that EG a very miracle any miracle workers
Things are ending
Very good saturate
To perfection here for EG
Big tag
In the way nervous now big smoke 40 seconds left. He can't leave. That's 40 seconds left guys
The pullback smokes make it feel like he's on the rotate away from on have the read calm have the read calm
Have the read what would you do in this area? That's exactly what he's doing come whatever you would do in this area
Is exactly what this guy is doing. He's also an astro player. You know, he's not coming be brother
He's seconds to make it to the A side. He will have time. Yeah, he's got the time
He's even got the time actually to be able to get the plant down and reposition
Get into an awkward spot if you can isolate well into the falter women won't be one
And this is incredibly winnable for nerve in this position
Why?
Pulls gonna be used there just an attempt to see if again. He's just rich by the time
Okay, well they come right here Cosmic Divide is very
Shoulder the shoulder back to it all superman
It's caught on a fucking iPad.
EG, get him by.
Rounds like this.
Two out of three of the rounds that EG have put on the board are from Thrifty.
So you know, things are not going well, but they are finding their moments to trick Fury
up.
And the idea of just rotating from a certain point, it's really not that strict.
He's killed, and then the first kill, there's no damage.
that stack. I'm scared. Thank God. Thank God Nerv over thought it. He's like, why the
fuck are they spaced so different? Five rounds. You need five here. We get five, we win pistol,
we win bonus, we win first gun, all of a sudden, ten-five. Or ten-sevenths, sorry.
I haven't fought for AMA in one CC.
No, I have not.
Wow, one time is a like trapped react play,
but not at barrier drop.
That's really not resistance at all.
My ultimate's ready.
I think the proud doesn't see any of it.
Look at that.
Free is anything.
They got the red carpet rolled out for Gwala Nuk
to just rack up four rolls and a half.
Yeah, this is unbelievable.
This is just ridiculous.
Pg and the past actually have struggled
with their Phoenix macro.
Look down, hold on.
Splitting, trezzing, signs of life here.
Okay, Oki.
Oki.
It's really on it.
It betrayed it.
Nice.
Just disrupting this one here with the ultimate,
but that's a lockdown.
It's gonna be catching in.
Yes, oh my god.
Oh my god.
You got the last hundred more, buddy.
Couldn't avoid the most.
You just gotta keep running.
Almost nice in a moment.
Picking that perfect opportunity.
And now,
doesn't need to buy the split up the way,
sectioning up the site.
Fast lane again, dividing up the site.
Just really making it awkward, I think.
Bounce, bounce, bounce.
I think if I look here,
you can't even see flat down.
Bounce, bounce.
at our control. This could be pivotal, Lord.
Pen's up on that kill.
He's baiting around, but it's moved, Moans!
Look into the site.
Kuala Lumpur will be in complete control.
Furia are hyper ready for these normal defensive protocols
from teams on Pearl.
The pull that Superman's been going for
is also designed for people in that secret dugout area
to spam off.
I mean.
There's util pressure over towards that area,
and so we should probably go for that.
We suck and it fucks, that was kill.
Kill the way out. Kill the way out, but I can't stop it. Free B.
It's free B.
We're stunning each other, we're...
Alright, we held off, they made at least.
time the problem was broken okay that's the thing if you only do it once in a
half it just becomes so obvious what you're doing now it's on eG to get
active elsewhere if you know that fury have given up that space can you can you
double push over towards art right now are you looking for contact be long
calm just jump spotting hoping that you can spot somebody's play is just a one
the Astra 2 doesn't give away the game just yet the buy by the way is horrible
for this final round of the half, that's the easy one.
We just win now.
I guess.
Yeah, we just win, right?
Especially now.
Why not a bit of airy spawn?
Say after we push spawn, we just win.
Look, tower is primed.
Ready for this one, bow.
Looking for the signal.
Literally, I'm winnable for them.
I'm sitting, it signals it now.
Sends it flying, nerves stepping forward.
I'm winnable.
You're gonna have to respect this one.
Yeah, you can't break it.
I'm not gonna set up Oki-anus for a really nice ult.
There it is.
Bit of time burned, but this is a rapid retake once more, kicking off, and here it is.
Conversion pops. Lay it down.
PUSHES his fury of play as way out towards the back, now that the fuse being stuck, but
I'll aim up again. I'll aim!
It's three kills for him!
That's a very astral form, oh my goodness!
Just barely getting away with it there.
But still, nobody else can use this half-hunt up attack, just like,
PUSH him forward, superman! He's only got a bucky!
And at this point,
Fully ran away from him. Game plan is accounted for, it's Furia.
Up to that knight.
Crazy round. EG's ult, you felt like you should have been able to secure it for them.
But as they rigged it down B long, Alan was playing in that cubby.
Just managed to dodge the ultimate completely. Look at him here. Unaffected.
Bro, what the fuck?
The only guy that isn't all this is my player from one of the best players in the server to going 2 and 12
EG fail to activate that star and go down 9-3
Not much longer now, and I will also take to the skies need to you
No, you will always be a warm just wait and see I mean yo we were so close
We were actually just so close to winning
I mean, what's it looking like here in the stats page?
Yeah, I'm gonna need my boy here for sure.
Attack side at least.
Like, we need to make this a respectable map, at least in respect to like, can't just be
a 13-3.
We gotta win pistol, we gotta sneak in a bonus win.
Gotta make it competitive, this is just sad at this point.
Did we just juice out?
We just used everything on Haven, we have nothing left?
I mean, this is our map pick. That's the bad part 9-3 on our map pick
So they've done a lot of the hard work already, but it's just about keeping it going and so far furia looks like they've woken up a little bit
Yeah, I think he G also coming into pole without the same level of
Yeah, if you're a pro is good, but like surely we have some anti's okay
Let's just see but it was there a taxalite where calm was doing his best work on the calling
See if they're stuck art something out here
Lee
Break towards me at the time it's gonna be going down, but this is a rapid take over isn't it my god
Yeah, he'll try Astro mid.
No way they're gonna retake any, right?
No way, no way, no way.
Let's go baby, let's go baby, we hold that shit.
Astros through fish, beautiful.
I don't know, he's just a god spot.
They kill. Round over.
You know, thank you for the time, man.
This is a start. A start of something very, very special here.
We've been talking at the beginning of Haven as well about them taking their advantages
and running with it, which they did, honestly, successfully.
I think one of the problems was that they didn't find any of their opponents in the
first half.
No.
Still loaning for us?
Just need these.
The only round that you could really call to that is the 3v1.
That was a really rough one for EG.
shit come great stuff you really managed to get 11 points out of the 12 so yeah
you're gonna end up going back when you guys get out so when you're going up
against such a good post-plant team let me guess you think I ran that ad the
buckies the buckies are coming out to play again yeah you're not buying enough
of them no you're on the board the break your economy for the next round yeah
this is a classic mistake
The diligent though, come on baby one round at a time. It's all good. Eager to rush into
all good making sure that they scope out what's going on. They know that fury again
are going to be going for pretty similar game plan. Trying to fight comms calling has been
very good. Very solid. Get those ults online and comms calling style in general is very
slow. Yeah. Trying to control the map as much of it as possible. Late round execs quite
a lot of the time and also a ton of fakes. I mean that's another hallmark of how
Com likes to call.
No sound of life in Fury at all. Just trying to catch that contact.
Broken, drone to follow up and through.
There's the tag there but it does spot out the player but it's just absent shown
presence. It gives away what they really already knew with the Tarabian there.
If they want to go into this one they might be upset. I believe holding
the double-dash at the back side
Wow
Wow
Take our time
Take our time
Take our first
Nice
Nice
He's not alien
No, no, no.
Round one's a round win. Doesn't matter how you do it, it's that you do it.
We need this bonus. We need this bonus badly
Maybe three if they can scrap things together
I would like to pressure art ideally fish control, but I would like to pressure
I'm done and it gives them a chance to be able to tie things a bit more towards level on this attack
Yeah, they've got five man a bulldog in an hour. So
We were just rushing a main fight. Yeah
They have four here.
They literally have four here.
Full control of AMA is there, they're all on top of it as well.
Okay, I kind of threw off their setup which is good, and we didn't rush, so that's nice.
We would have lost had we continued.
Holding for the retake, like we did on pistol rounds, that's fine.
We are hitting it.
I
Lame shotguns gonna have this fucking field day here
Oh my god
Well, in an irretrievable position, hold on, smoke dissipating, you're barely getting back and away, it's a 2v4, of which fury in complete control.
If they can just do damage here though, take guns out of the hands and the 3D rays.
I think they wanted to pop, but yeah, I agreed. You're going for sure. Just to cancel out any kind of like weird variable. Like the shotgun.
Take down a U, perhaps? There's 21HP?
I mean four players survive and they have a clean round not what EG making by twice
Scarry's away keeps the economy healthy. Well, if you played though by fury in terms of their information around the map
I think that's one of the things that they were really struggling with on haven because they weren't going for
Knowing as well
But the problem that you used earlier on fully cleared off
The children utility was telling them that there's nobody laying and nobody be long
They were really happy.
Okay, B pressure, Killjoy mid after A.
With three and four players?
Yeah. Four players just waiting for his home.
If the hit came through.
Here's that hold of Deepastastar over towards A main.
Prowler.
It's not a full commitment on the fight,
but I think Alan would have wanted to go for that
if he'd been given the chance.
Judging hand.
Yeah, no connection.
Hansen is waiting.
off this turret contact, so cheeky play, we've seen it a few times.
From watching Fury against RG, it looks like Fury is protocol-
Pretty good setup, honestly.
If they don't start rotating B when they hear drones down-
Off the turret, they just double swing.
So how do you hear the drone do that?
What this got with the QA, with the Feeing Slash?
Honestly, it's close to Kuala Lumpur.
And they spot the Alarm Bot.
Really?
Give it up on the idea to trap play.
Now, just seeing if they can-
Okay, we're just- Kill joined in, I guess, and we're just going to be-
push back of course this be this fade-eye is gonna fuck us again our control
amen control Tina thinking it's right juggling from fury to be able to get
some pretty good mid-round information the stack of three players wait on the
turret break is big Tar was taken out this is nice now fury you don't really
know where on the map each year going each you decide the use of time another
be here it is yeah like speed show them towards the top of their place group
company you's gonna be caught into a corner but the wall is a bit of bailout
The rest of his team as well responding in kind
Weird man
It's labor, but he does get the job done
Right from fight straight playing it well though man. Just playing it. Well, no free kills time pressure again
Being a bit of a problem for this eg squads and it kills me in force
the old
I
Will be too much. Well, that's you different area. That won't be what it's easy. They played that site holds so perfect
Positioning a crossfire is coming through for furia
pressure going as well I'll picked out one but couldn't be the playmaker they
needed traded out we needed this kill
I'm gonna be the pivot guy trades out as well to be long comes back in trades out
towards site and EG yeah that's game by looking down the barrel of fury again to
map point we're going to Lotus well three map bar or three yeah three bombsite
maps I mean we won here for comes calling are they actually prefer a
in a difficult spot they come down to the one-by-one
Gets to pick up this all
It's delayed the refight e.g. Look at a jump on the chance if they get to punish online
I just didn't execute that trap properly
Not quite fast things gonna be all the way up in your face with a gender judge
That's what meets them on the other side of it quality. It's going for this. Yeah, he's just sending it
We're not wrong. Okay with the old's running forwards running back
This is getting absolutely down because anything and Calanity's skewered by a single point.
They got it, they got it, they owned us. Quite simple really.
The more Fury you look like, the better team.
Come left with a stinger and it all to do in a 1v5.
This round I don't think had too many chances of going his way.
I call on him and picks it up in the end.
Seven opportunities here for Fury to close things out.
Oh good.
This is why I'm saying that. I wouldn't have been surprised.
It's all good, it's all good, it's all good.
I hope.
Map 3 man, Lotus is weird.
It's all new, Lotus is weird. It's like Haven.
Also depends which side we're starting on. I'll take attack side, start.
Get that early lead.
Yeah, I got it. That's 12-5, yes.
It's causing so much chaos.
not some ideal no you're trying to be quiet
gotta imagine that was an intentional a little bit too sensitive they're on the
mouse eg know that they need to make a play in this position though this is not
just okay we hold around the map and then we create an opportunity to go for an
exit they kind of need to over stay there welcome over push look for a pick
before they commit i think
diligent positions though by fury i mean these positions are too good enough
much no it's like guaranteed one kill before they get traded close quarters
Allen crushed up I guess spotted way yes indeed for the first quick reactions
from okay I was perfect divide now splits it up backside control held down by
EG that flag and come through it is that nice pressure to get themselves into a
4v4 area have been very good in the lead to excel it is nightfall scatters
forwards they kill before dying go back of that koaloo okay honest needs one more
kill
That instant trade that we saw once more
profit divide is through the furia they're looking to see if they can close this map out send it all the way to Lotus
You're gonna move on now forcing the issue for each
Yeah, there was not to step forward up to the mark. That's all right furia
They swiftly handle it and Lotus now. It's gonna be that decider now. They owned us. They owned us
There's no there's no question about it. Hey, but it's a good way to get a lot more with our expectations fury of work
absolutely the better team here from beginning to end on Perl. What EG were cooking with this map pick we never know?
They never got an opportunity to show it because Furia completely wrecked them from beginning to end.
Lotus though? Who knows? Is he going to be more like Haven? Is he going to be more like Perl?
Great question.
He's thinking more like Haven.
I'm sorry Kaiser. Thank you for the prime
You have no sleeper cross first turning so good
Yeah, two three nappers today though W
Yeah, they did fucking owned us all five across the board destroyed us nothing we can do
As that abdo abdos finally awake
Meatball thing of the prime
It's all G end of the day
We need these two performing and we're fine on Lotus both at the same time though
and we'll be just fine on Lotus
will he be in London? likely enough
likely enough
unfortunately
that's okay
stream from home, feel me?
Just saying no while likely, because anything can happen.
Good thing I've seen New Camp on vacation in London, no.
Are you watching APAC? Yeah, I am.
I'm not a hundred percent sure if I'll watch the second game of a pack cuz I truly don't give a shit neither these teams are gonna qualify
but I
Will definitely watch this game. There's no way I won't
That's not arsenal potentially bottling it guys guys, I just don't even want to talk about it. All right. I don't want to discuss arsenal
Let's just see what happens in three days.
Like there's no point in talking about it.
The only thing I can say about Arsenal is the first time in the entire time we've played this year
that I have felt like we can lose.
13-5 with the way of Fioria.
As you can see, Evil Genius is starting to talk
about what they want to do, getting ready for mat three.
Same for Fioria, a position that I'm sure this squad
did not think that they would be in,
but close show you the NBCC Americas.
Any team could be competitive at any point in time.
Of course, Golden Boy here alongside Dryad and Athena.
Let's go ahead and break this all down here
because I think we were coming into this one
very excited about the match.
Atlantica Madrid to show under two over two legs. I think Arsenal are better or will be better
I truly do yeah, but then you shift forward to pearl side show was talking about it
He was like, I don't know if you want to get to ahead of ourselves here
And he was right because you know you were starting to see how this fairy team just knows like this mantle targets on pearl
Yeah, I felt like on Haven what we were watching was two really good teams that have almost near perfect gameplay
No one is over you are high and I'm sorry. Listen pencil
If I still win, you're just never gonna come back here and be like my bad. I was wrong
You have such a good upper hand at these post times this round in particular
putting that killed Joy off down first and making sure to use that time to be aggressive to break the defender killed
Oh, so that they can explain what crisis here you go by walking in a tiger defense
I mean you had ideal world you go by your own
like game plan like what your what you want your game plan needs for example if
you're playing double duelist and your attack is ideally stronger in that
situation then you start attacking. So maps like Split, maps like Haven, maps like Lotus,
you want that attack advantage because defense is simply harder on a lot of the
maps so you want attack on those maps but maps like Pearl, but actually even Pearl
Pearl is a little bit attack-sided.
He actually thinks that he's a bit excited.
I actually think Breeze.
Nah, not Breeze.
But Breeze is attack-sided, slightly.
Pearl is attack-sided slightly.
Haven, Lotus, Split are in my opinion attack-sided.
What am I missing?
everybody else find attack cited strongholding that side or
fracture while there is a tax on it fucking just don't attack
every time they really know how to maximize the value of these
rules not only because you're the one setting the pace on
attack like you're the only you're the one setting the pace on
attack unless the opponent the defense team does a good job of
proactivity around the map to gain info and also remove you
for like the lurkers from the team.
Mentor, they give you the prime.
For example, teams like
like G2, PaperX, Energy,
they are very good at those kinds of protocols.
Like they lose a part of the map,
they regain another part.
Just like without question, they just do it.
Sometimes they'll do it by themselves.
Like for a second, we'll just walk into B main and take it
because he realizes the situation on the map requires
for that to happen.
A lot of the younger teams, a lot of the inexperienced teams, or a lot of the teams with rookies,
you will see that they hesitate like 5 to 10 seconds before they even think about the
concept of regaining space somewhere else on defense.
So it actually makes most maps inherently better on attack.
Attack side, your game plan is to start to finish very simple and straightforward because
you're the one setting the case.
defense you're kind of adapting to what the opponent is doing a lot of the times.
Damn right, 7300 subs, that's fucking go baby.
One thing for EG though, is that this last map was very rough for DG Zin, which is very on
character, to be honest, so it's going to be a Lotus where he really needs to step up because
he really depends on him. How does he do that? How do you think he does that?
Why is Rai not streaming? I really like a few of the things that he was doing.
usually streams in the morning and then goes into EMEA. So probably went to bed after EMEA.
What baseball team do you support? When I watch it, Toronto Bluejuice.
He's streaming for APAC? Yes. Yes, we'll be watching APAC tonight.
Guaranteed at least the first game
Equestreaming VCC is addicted to gambling
I wasn't gonna be the one saying
Are you gonna only World Cup games in Toronto?
Maybe
The Shanks act the same, IRL doesn't stream
Yeah, it's pretty similar
High energy real-growth
It was that buffer that who's better cryo or scuba
Can they do it again can e.g. Actually close the major upset given giving duty
Excuse me their first loss in America's this year. You don't want to miss it. Matt 3 is coming up next
We go need to see a bit of a step up from the EEG side of things here because here
I have put on a statement of map to
EEG is one of the best shots they're gonna have in a long while of trying to get that upset wing to try and set their
Playoff dreams in motion because whatever theory it would be everything to them in this group
They're against some tough competition later and we're seeing standard affair in terms of the agent selection at least on one side of the stage
Yeah, I think this is what the matter is looking like at least in terms of what a lot of it
North American teams are trending towards a solo due list look on this map where you
run viper and device and make it pretty difficult for people to attack in for you.
And it's going to be a mirror composition, pretty simple name I suppose.
So, you know, if you try to clutch the superstitious straws, maybe EG there can win in terms of
mirror comps.
They didn't really seem to have a great idea about how to stop Yuria on the Yuria's attack
side of the world.
Despite the fact there was that map pick and they had some footage to look at.
Chat today is like me, do I just skip?
You've got no idea how they're gonna play these compositions.
I think you can have some rough sense just based on how you would expect these comps to work.
This was in to me adding the deskies right here, highlighted as the player to watch if EG want to do something here.
Whether he's got a rifle in his hand or whether he's gone off,
he needs to be posted in aggressive positions looking to take early fights
and trying to pick off Furia, tax some utility out of them before they go back to his.
I did Dancers. I showed them the other day.
Like two days ago I showed them the shoes.
Ciao.
You guys wanna see them again? I'll show you guys again.
I have to take something.
Come on baby. Okay, I was not locked in to...
I like Lost Faith too quickly. I think that was my problem.
I'm not scared.
I'll show you guys after.
Osami, thank you for the tier one. Thank you.
at that choke point. I have a clip of song for you. He's mocking you there gets tapped,
but this is his position. Oh my God, what a shot. Yeah, Alan immediately just announces
himself to the server.
Take the president's seat. Just side stepping there to start as well. Zero thing to zero
one. Follow up. This is Egido looking for a contact player to own. Reclearance is that
all drops down and on the wiser. They're getting frustrated here that they're looking for a
Nice shot!
Oh, they don't know ArcZen is here though. There's no way to predict a second.
Now we know.
No!
Walk in the water!
Nice round, bro.
with the ghost leaves it all down a superman it was fantastic but this
position it's almost impossible he has to get passed out on his right handle
people on the left too much to deal with too many obstacles here he's gonna play
perfect now we start to score a dive obstacle found but even if it is a
matter good twist and turn just kind of direct attention away now as well you
just stay alive and kick in 61 health I mean the guy still has paranoia we just
Losing up here to know exactly where he is the paranoia could not be more perfect from koala noob
Try a good try good try his presence koala noob is the first one to take all good good round from arts
And we played it. Well, I think it was a good refight on the guy on the viper
According to the insurance policy for good reason because nobody was expecting it. That's just an insane shot
Yeah, you're gonna bottle the league again and also lose the buyer or psg in the finals
Brother you are having another trophy. Let's do the fuck yourself. Are she
To keep that momentum moving from map to looks like it's the case so far
EG
we're getting
Couple of upset birthday rounds here and there, but there's no real investment. This is a zima Pat Marshall
And one hell of a high-low set up over the whole day. That's immediately gonna be broken up from that sound pressure on C
All right, you know what we're gonna watch the game live 1130 a.m
We saw furia get tripped up by now. I'm not actually getting that
I think fury so on top of
Using the weapons in this game. Yeah
One of the big one of the biggest things that they said
Before the season I'm gonna try not looking at chat when I want when I watch though. I'm just gonna like yeah
like an agent better it was a scope because as soon as I look at chat and
someone has scored you guys will be like a minute and a half in the head of me
been having turned out to be correct and some of the spoil
no the medicine to find by the agents yeah in the state of a person we're not
initiating you so it's like and I think he was correct in that assessment but then
all good all good okay go around let's go bonus the bonus round we should be all
it recently we just heard from fury again it's all good be pop ready for this
superman I mean you look at Alan judging his hand again here on a bonus we have a
fast rotate from fade fade me out beautifully and I said the other day it's
it's nonchamased with the way that they set up I don't know please please please
please please go on now
Oh, she puts in terms of resistance, that is.
Oh, yeah, mother, you tell, yeah, it's a paranoia.
The player only shit this game fucking up, blows.
They are very, very good at setting up
Allen with paranoias and seizes.
Those are the big pieces of you, Till.
The colony with the EU seem to just
What do we even do at this point?
We're going to retake C and then open the door.
Then what?
32.
Real guesswork.
OK, EG are going for this one.
I thought for a second moment there,
they were going to be saving.
They're just taking their time setting up for the retake.
open a hesitation
Stopped down open sight lines. So I live it's not a good parlor. There's a main control
I was gonna be trying to push these players way out to the open and this could get a good
This could get deadly and dangerous
Spray away wildly at that, but he's could be shot
That is so nice. I love those post-plant flashes from the vice players so critical awful thing
you these rounds
Getting back in in a 2v2 there
Honestly, that is really tough if you don't have that point be supposed to utility to rely on
Here's one flash to set up. This is a nasty exact style give them that
All played
Not as good you could argue because easier for them to break in the midst of the moment
But in all of that chaos, it's a bonus conclusion.
Oh, he's one away from Vyzlox as well for next round.
We have to win this round.
We have to somehow find a way to win this round.
On pull, they got the plant down in 11 out of 12 rounds,
just as a reminder.
EG could not stop them.
They're peace-keeping a significant portion
of this one as well, because I think EG,
they're comfortable with a slower game,
more cautious game.
That's what Haven was for them.
Yeah, because Fury, they didn't, you know,
they weren't proactive.
Yeah, Fury were playing too passively on Haven.
They've immediately ramped it up at the right times now for these following last two maps.
I'll bring you the game, and you thought about it, you said it!
Some of the best at spotting out which weapons are the best to be using for these jobs.
They're always up to 3 out of all.
So the buddy's alone!
Nice flick.
They're all going to jump in now.
There's a way of weapons.
And there's your zines.
He was a beast on Haven. He's been a beast in general, but you don't win in a 1v4 from this position.
The plant's down for you, you're already steadily looking to see if they can hunt and see what
a weapon is.
Or open wide.
It's so cringe to say, but I think the percentage plays used to toss it off the map.
But you're never going to do that.
I mean, you've got to believe in your ability to do some economic damage or something.
Four rifles.
It's a catastrophic beginning.
Yeah, it really is.
He is
Defensive I'm telling you starting attack is such an advantage
The op of the DG holding C while fury you take a space at root
DTP quali noob
way in there they have a for free now it's a nice play we're always be scared
about this be pop as well which is annoying all of his fate utility opening
the door here what about us to account for but they have eyes all the way from
neon as well just taking a residency of it all day man at level section fury of
poking and somehow eGF find a way to win two in a row see what the sign is from
eG here's the vice you told there at this spot is so good for advice ultimate
So Ardizena's working stuff into
Now looking like yeah, I want to go into the B split. Oh boy. Oh my god. Well, please
Why is it a little day?
We'll make it feel like a B split end of it all day. Not too short. Thank you. We'll end be here
We go, but I mean the spikes trapped in into the
Sit down
What a snap
Did you see the superman?
We've just weigh in they found a slight gap to play off in this whole time
I was considered a shot and maybe I still should be but the plant will go down over all the A side
But he was in the 1v3
Jay can be gifted a tier 1 to Jay can be
Thanks, everything plays positions and here's the prowler
Side stepping it even signs a life silent drop down
From south of pocket playing could be a window here if he's not played in time at a horn player
It's good
Three live together big big big big one round at a time
But they didn't use any of their ults, so this next round is even harder, we need entries before they ult.
Just so good, supermen right here to help them too, perfect.
And then the round winning kill right here.
I'm going to go, bro.
I think criticism of how Fury applied that, they should probably be leading with the Vice
Ultimate, but how does he maybe call in to be a bit greener than the Superveter for Post
Band, something like that?
Greatest player of all time would easily win this match, but he's a surprise.
You guys call, you just say, I'm boinging.
This guy's fucking bouncing heavily.
It's always a danger when a team just completely runs away with the opening few rounds
You don't actually build up the economy at any point to get the operator
So shoot the team up in G where you know, it's gonna be cool today game time
You're not quite a passive line at the moment
There's just staring at a viper wall that's gonna be going up and down in his face
Valon balance, it's actually a critical bounce position here that we're looking at
He gets pushed off the line by a smoke though
So he hasn't actually got very much information about are there bullets?
We have no thorns at B and we don't have the wall at B, we're cooked.
They can just Vice, fake C, make us rotate and then go B, then we just lose.
My god.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, there's shots dead.
Oh my god, they overcooked. They overcooked. They could have just gone C with the Vizal or B with the Vizal. They're trying to run a fake.
No, he didn't. No, he didn't just win this. No, he didn't.
He didn't win this, right?
Coward. Let's go. Two rounds and a red is big.
That internal clock miss by a millisecond the full stick saves the day for EG
Yeah, he's planning for some kind of spawn play something like that, but
EG on the retake knew exactly where he's gone because he took that
Thank God he missed this initial kill man. This is an overcook of a round from yeah, it is it is it is
Too many good alls the vice wall, but the vice ultimate see yeah
The wall doesn't get triggered so you know it's a fake and there's two players will be just waiting to add on to what?
Sideshow is saying if you vise alt fake you need to send the neon with the fake to make it believable
But to be fair Alain did miss
Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, your lock in what matters most.
Flick em, like a booger.
This is the booger flick.
Can you see him?
Oh my God, a clean round shot.
Okay, you're playing it perfect defense over was the ace side, but also you just kind of a beautiful position
I'm gonna get an R ring about whether or not they wanted to commit wait what the fuck
You played perfect, okay, yo, yo, this would go very wrong. I mean everybody lost to the board
Drop to the lay it down now
Plantic to the corner and give you some coverage blind shots. It is illegal to be losing
Come on, free spam, let's go spam, let's go spam, let's go
No, he played it, nice!
Nice skill, that's it
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you
Oh my god, man.
to set him up with a judge and we're gonna win the round off the back of playing post one that round look beautiful
Yeah, and each is such as turning into a good to defense side man. This is turning into a very good defense side
They've recovered somehow they've recovered three rounds in a row with so hard to do but honestly period did low-key fuck up their
Old brown first kills. Yeah follow ups
There's no trade in sight as well. The fewer players are not tight enough right now to instantly respond
is
both our dog ship teams
compared to San right
yeah correct is what you name
mochi TTDS correct
Sentinels is the best and the
greatest in the world
EG are having actually moments
even on the match
dang on
I mean pearl here
they did not really have too
much of a
bone over as they say
the young kids say now it is
in these early rounds at a massive deficit.
But, you know, sometimes the positioning,
even after they get the first kills,
either immediately get traded
or they've given up too much map control,
the plant's already down.
Here though, they're actually putting the squeeze
on the Fury.
They really are.
Honestly, Sen might even be better than PaperX.
There's no might involved.
Thank you, Swappers, for saying that.
Sen would wipe the floor with PaperX.
Are you kidding?
Now trailing just for one round.
EG again with this operator.
So we're rummaging around the map in the hands of Digizine.
But he's not taking any aggro lines of it.
It's always quite...
It is quite passive.
Yeah, it's passive committed into weird angles where you wouldn't expect it.
Alan is there.
He does have a shotgun that Church ready to wait in.
Um...
In through...
To the P!
And he's attracted on a side!
Stunned!
Slight again!
That's definitely not your best.
Yep, trading out though, almost instantly
Oh my god, this guy outside
And the EU, EU
EU's gonna be annoying
I'm not gonna go down to B, surely signals
They're worried about his A presence
Yeah, so they should be
EU's positioning is diabolical
Oh my god, kill him
BITT BOOT
Woohoo!
NERF
Quick on the reactions
Oh my god, please clear NERF
Please, please, EG's an elite team with big clear NERF here
Oh my god, they're dodging it entirely
You can kill post plant
Fury have been immaculate in post plant positions
Again, I thought this advanced a cheat.
Come on, Val.
Come on, Val.
Round one and kill.
Nice, Val.
Kuala Lumpur.
This is the chance to strike there.
But already they don't have to participate in this.
Just dominating, inserting themselves up through heaven.
They're so good at being able to.
I mean, he knows he's in a horrible spot there, Kuala Lumpur.
Yeah.
And so he just throws caution to the wind and goes for a play.
He played well.
And the rest of his team is ready to swing off it.
Yep.
Well played by Kuala.
position after he fails the first time where he essentially just puts his body on the line
for other people to swing on. It's an unexpected play. I mean nobody was ready for the man who
jumps up into heaven. No, that's just Caleb up to side. It's ridiculous. And thus ends the EG
streak that they were on. It's all good, it's all good, it's all good. How did they have more
odds than us again? How's that even possible? It's translated into economic problems. Again,
signature play while the newbie's got that outlaw tracking the money putting the hurts and the squeeze
what the fuck was that so we're not gonna be getting the information we're looking for
and one thing the desk we're talking about that we haven't seen very much of is is digiCin getting
pushed onto aggressive positions in mound or rubble i think he's played one round at rubble
here he's going walkabouts and this is more reminiscent of what they did on A9
they're dodging him entirely but he has so much space we can stack over stack
eggs here he definitely could be the playmaker yeah oh my god oh hell no
how dare they
now grouping up big stack or five of them fuck 30 seconds okay we committed to a
stacking it was the right play it's okay the war is just being triggered
Alan's gonna be separated from a lot of his team like you said I mean EG feel
like it is that fake pressure but we know it's very much real 20 seconds
remaining please not willing to position I don't think to push this back means
that you have to go for a safe plant which is worse for your post plan
That point, but yeah put it on the board
Those two kills that he got with the Guardian though are so precise
That is gorgeous, bro
Getting him
But it's another
So long to get into the seaside
Okay, one of this momentum man
They can't play if they can win this half. We're switching to attack side. They make a big mistake
Actually another anti eco loss fury. I've had so many
Okay, this guy's gonna fake a be hit while they walk out a nice ultimate. Oh my god. Oh my god. We're ready
We're ready for this. Okay. This would be a weird spot
You can see if you can set this one up, oh, Keanu's.
Yeah, this guy's gonna hop right now.
We're gonna play with him, brother.
Nice.
As he goes down, the trade is in sight.
Well played, now.
Well fucking played.
But I have slipped and missed a mark here.
That was a where again, another jiggle.
No, there's a fight.
Take a bow.
It's part of the side step.
They have to pause, I feel like.
They cannot lose this half.
Five to five.
This is good.
It's not bad for EG.
They're finding their way back into rounds, winning important thrifties, challenging Fiora earlier early on.
They're able to get first kills on their side.
It's excellent news that a CGSkull, I thought all the wind had been taken out of sails after that second map, but...
Yeah.
5-5, drawing level and even with Fiora onto the side at...
The only major ultimate...
Big Outlaw here.
...in this round is Arthasene's Steel Guard.
Big Outlaw.
I want to see them trying to get some value out of that all everyone's on half armor. This outlaw can do so much work
to be placed down
Good job, okay getting out
We have no alts to retake this we have no ults to retake this and this guy's stuck on heaven
And they have eyes all
shouldn't be this easy man, shouldn't be this easy for them to just take this
this is there watching from that rubble, the very passive positions, the rest of the fury are locked in
close by controls, the position of arts in it is traded, it's good at that
two of them is there, tap on a switch, they know the time pressure is passing now, they've got to get a bit of a boob over the hero
running rings around them, the clock is out now, they're just jumping the joy
weird in it sure
Rest in heart rate of about ten he's like a
That is a great round for me you he finds his opening kill
Mbp the round for sure
It takes a G so much time to root out the player
And then go back through the door
It's fine. It's fine. Nick is six six house six six is great. I'm considering they got bonus and lost but still six six is amazing
It's a good damage
Tether the doggie
It's a very good play
My god, oh my god superman
Spockets banned
Played here before calm. That's big and again that Odin's palm listen
Oh my gosh, that's waiting way
It's just free. I'm is this is EG
But the entirety a section of the bottom round over nice six six up is fantastic. Honestly spike drop down
Take this any day barely with the start we have limping into the next few engagements
If you even get a chance for right now, but all the angles watched
well done well done same opening of the area as they took really aggressive
space and yet comes Odin Melchus. Look at all of this damage this is after he'd
already hit about 140 damage on the island too and EG is super happy to take that fight
what a great recovery in this half from EG down 0-4 yeah the immense amount of
credit has to be given to them right now because they are firmly back into that
believe in what Territory here,
upset whenever Furia within our sights.
They're making me believe.
Yeah, they certainly are.
We'll see what happens on the other side of this.
Cool, right?
They're comfy.
I don't even know what that.
Which team has looked better on Lotus considering that EG was able to recover and ridiculously
hard start on defense side?
I'm gonna say EG.
But all because Furia fucked up their one ult round.
The main all-round out of completely broken EG's money for the rest of the half.
That's on Fallen announcing his retirement at Rio.
That's pretty awesome, man.
He's going to have an awesome, like, goodbye tour.
Great.
Is that an absurd career?
Bro, when I was coming up in CS 1.6, when I was, like, looking up to him, I was like,
Players, Fallen was one of us, and he ended up playing longer than I did.
You understand how absurd that is?
I was watching this Fallen frag movies as a young kid, and then retired before he did.
It's absurd. It's absurd his longevity is absurd.
He is the LeBron James of CS, genuinely.
well important matches you really don't know the importance of it until you get
towards the end but you gotta imagine a win against fury it makes your odds of
making playoffs much more like any just such a genuinely awesome guy really deep
ice wall baked it out so now they know that the defensive pistol round included
an aggressive be setup by the way it's DG and Superman back at the top of the
scoreboard so whatever wobbles from Pearl not there anymore
Dog shit ass tether. No, no
Up how have they possibly fucked that up
Really slow really controlled on the attack side
Furia at least oh looking for advantage guys take advantage of this calm. Let's go. I need some good calling out of you
See is the correct boss I did it. They stacked the wrong bomb site. Let's go
of course the A site that's a they're rotating guys they're rotating oh my god
cops immediately and they're going back into on Konae
advice you till though you have 20 seconds left the time of the trigger
the war as well as what the thorns is caused for concern now it doesn't have
any use of the playoff ones here though everyone's here guys
with a connection. Backside clear, backside, there's no smoke Heaven.
3 bomb plant.
That was low anyway, it's okay. We got the plant.
Free death.
Koala no paranoia.
Did he kill him?
Show, show, guys, balls are there.
Yeah, he is actually getting set up better than he was on pearl for sure
Here yet
Exactly what EG tried only this time. Oh my god, are they gonna make us put it to see here and then they just overstock see
This is a problem. Oh god. Oh my god
The team is not set up to react on the other side of us if I've ever needed a player to win us this round
It's you which isn't I call upon you how you want that to work
Throw UI, throw your ass out of my pokeball. Go.
Oh my god.
Oh my god, we actually did it.
Oh, we're so low though.
though still in the danger zone
so damn we instantly responding
we actually just lost as you mentioned you
teed it up perfectly the prior damage
has softened up common bow left alone
see if they can piece it together both
these players load is comes down to the
wire comes out of straight shots there
won't be one come he knows you do it
every time. Just 34 HP total across both of these players. This is absolutely
manic, man. I don't even know whether the wall dog is favored in this position.
Yeah, I don't know at all. I mean, listen, Nerv is going to be able to get the tie destroyed
because he is scurrying at us with steps, a thrifty win, and this is where the issue's laid.
I mean, that is diabolical for the EG believers, man. They get the pistol after going 6-6 in the
half and you're thinking they're set up for a lead for success for a potential bonus it is
worse to lose this round than if you had lost the pistol and I think you know huge credit honestly
to the martial value I know that it's Alan who does most of the killing but the martial body
shall damage set it up for it yeah soften up all the opposition and let me listen to
GG in that last week, when a pistol loses a follow-up, you have to convert to your own
and you're gonna be cute to get out, so sad bruh
GG now becomes the hero, you know the buy that they went for where they had one person pick up a martial, one person pick up a sheriff
Well it now means that you have a rifle to work with, but yeah, GG is 700, superman's are 400
i guess they're gonna try to get someone out of the judge in the next round but
you are really looking at your two star players here with weapons in hand to try to make something
happen yeah they're not down that much but it's a risk to slide if it goes wrong i guess the delay
stop i mean might be a free fall
okay three here and paranoid i mean what the fuck are we supposed to do it's obvious not too much it's
still quiet enough that this could still be superman on a solo look
I'm down for a B-Split here.
We have the site, they got fucked, they got fucked, we played them.
please
Has pulled the players away
I like the spot
I like the spot
This could be a bit of a fall off
The trade is there, this is getting really chaotic now
In the final details in the final moments
Where did just asian's gun go?
Not too sure, don't be a dunn
He's dropped it down, okie I just picked it up
Okie come on, okie come on baby
Oh here we go
Let's go again
And the Tanishin may be surely there, waiting, the gun, hold it!
NOOOOO!
Hey!
Heartbreak!
At the final moment!
Comes flank, absolutely iconic!
But he didn't feel confident going for the classic kill.
The pies were weak enough, but yeah.
EG invested into that one, so...
We've gotta see Warwick working with him this round.
They knew who it was, so they fucking...
They called it out and they went for...
It's like a semi-hero by that.
Did you see him in Superman?
We just as he can just pick up a judge in this round. Not many plays with the judge much even when he's on neon
How do they know are you asking how do they know?
They know
Fairly I think it's only one guardian actually the damage done. It's not too bad
Couple of half-harmers I think to ensure that they have full utils
How could they not know how actually could they not know?
I think it's just in case they put down the nice flash.
Total for now though.
Big rounding should be ordered up for EG because I think they need to spot out where there's nice utility.
Easier said than done and with the fury, I mean already doing the job.
Very proactive.
The attacking protocols for EG though are good in order to escort the people into position.
Okiannis is walking up either with paranoia to try to shut down Alim if he did go for some kind of...
as we can recognize that is weak but you're right they've dated out that
all the kick actually signed up the jazeem he's gonna be here in this
i think he's gonna find you till should be just humming in his ears when he's
calling you to victory here buddy this feels a little bit like furious haven
though right now where they they don't know where eg are ending at all yeah
now could be five players stacked up over the ward c and they wouldn't be
be done a wiser than wall still not baited out yeah the snake bite there
actually
because now that is that is full information they just know it's a video
they're recognizing it's a no no no no no no for sure
oh my god there's nobody in it oh oh my god he's gonna get a judge killer and
then a retake behind are you serious
It's a good trade there by Superman bow bow bow bow
Come on
Oh my god, oh my god
He's certainly bypassed
He bypassed
Come on, bow, bow
and they fall 8 to 8 for each Eid
Say what you want about Kham
The Khaming is solid
The overall what he is trying to accomplish in the round is extremely solid
And then in the late round he finally grabs that timing
Eus jiggling it
Alright, I'll go back and check it on the timing
I'll go back and check it on another timing
Navigates the ship
through those choppy waters this is still very winnable for EG
even after failing to come back to this
the solo decision making is Horrid
yeah because there's only one decision that he makes
that's why it's Horrid
there's only one
they can come through this after EG
if he just didn't flank
they would not know what to do
if they turned around and didn't see him
that was below their minds
and we'd win right there
focus on the round at hand
slow seed towards A, see if you can force reactions out of Furia, put the switch on
the door, just spam into the walls and they lost the previous anti-legal, like getting
chipped down by a marshal. I got her picking the right onsite.
It's it's more close-range referee. I'm just right on site extra. They have maximum also chat
Next round is the game winning round if we can win here. Yeah
Don't give him a free kill come on at least trade smoke though makes EG think twice about this
Yeah, it could be
I'll get the other side for free
Thankfully we should hopefully we're not gonna have to use any ults here. I'm not a fan of our plans, but
You know what whatever it is offloaded
To the disease left wondering where the hell these players are not knowing that they are waiting my god. He's getting horny
Oh
Any young spots them. It's beautiful. I set up the fight
That's sure I take his time
Happy stuff towards the end. We've got adjustment. Oh my god. Oh, man. Oh, it's it's not bad
Oh, for fear that the one ultimate that isn't on okay. This was the exact kind of round
That, uh, that Fury have fucked up on their attack half, this alt round.
Actually worse, it was worse than this because at least Fury have counter alts.
So this is the game winning rounds, right here.
Like if EG win it.
Okay, they're fighting for C here.
We have a control for free.
We have C control for free.
I think we should leave one, we should leave one personator.
If they K die or something like that.
Or K Trowler and they don't see anything.
She's rushing.
Die some.
After that, he's saving his paranoia, they're playing for Resake with Fatal.
Free bomb plant, no stunner. They're gonna insta-flood right now. It's gonna be an insta-flood, guys. Be careful.
Here it is, this is the round.
That's a good tether, by the way. Solid tether, just solid paranoia.
No! No!
Way!
Wait, what?
Complete total awareness!
Complete collapse on EG!
All sound queues cut away!
They had no idea at all!
It leaves it into the hands of Kong, but...
Grouped up!
Honestly, that's on...
That's perfectly fine.
I don't know what the fuck that was.
Just stop to it from fury yet.
Did all of us get hit by the ult?
Exactly as they drew it up there.
That ult combo...
I don't know.
You do see it work fairly often.
I'll not fall into the Omen ult, but...
That's kind of disgusting, I can't even count.
Not gonna lie, that is an insane fucking retake play.
I can't even blame EG for not knowing that one.
That is solid.
I can't even talk shit.
Mazeball thing in the tier one.
they can still be the ones in the driving seat if they want but the big
ultimates that they had to try to pull things in their favor knock down the
economy of furia they've missed an opportunity to be fully in control of
the end of this match there's still chances but they let one slip
it's a big one too furia's economy again it wouldn't have money to buy into this
next it would have given them even more breathing room cemented the lead moving
forward but like I said it's not gonna be around yet.
That's what the area is superior to.
It's the most impressive.
Up to these weeks actually.
Up to that level today.
The post plan play, whether that be retakes or in the post plan.
Isn't it by crawl C?
It's normally good really good.
With like a thorn or a wall.
It's another time and there's a bunch of EG retakes.
But those are all in like 3v1 scenarios.
Oh my god, A fight, that's A fight, that's...
Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god.
So in the like new numbers play fun scenarios,
furious protocols are very good.
EG you've got to be wary of that
Nothing to do with the A-Rubble fight
Oh, he's just going to be flying out there
Take TP
I'm trying to weaken up other areas extremities of the map
Honestly, we're really getting control of these
3D site, 3D site
3D site, they don't have a tariff or anything
Just want to play his life
U2's are up top here, trowel up into the corner and they hear that judge go off.
I really want to step to it.
Okay, here we go.
I have a protocol ready and waiting on my mid to glide and slide just to avoid most of this here.
What a kill, what a kill.
Judge in his hands.
Can't demean her from Digizin.
What a kill, they don't have anyone sliding or stunning.
Big tether.
The other teams will connect, but just breaking all that utility into a couple of warning shots
and he can just dominate and control that smoke.
No way, no way he just did that.
to leave the charge no rest of his team to kills bling even I got to the
time of comedy repositioning okay it's all in his shoulders now but he's got a
multitude of players to deal with and Superman left through the follow-up
three players against the crowd yeah I don't know what to say
these situations that it's a bit jealous arts and how is he finding those
kids there's no word where I've been he set a connector and gets the read one
me once even number scenarios being so good for fury
you're in post-personality.
That is unbelievable.
And this one looked like it was going to go differently.
EG are in.
They have the neon judge on an aggressive angle.
But as soon as the judge took one kill, notice how everyone on Fury takes a step back.
Play the longest lines possible.
And Wendish's in goes for the second peek on Neon.
He's taking a fight way further than he expects.
And he can't get a second with the judge.
Actual Terminator though.
Yeah, he was.
Incredible round for Adizine.
They're both here. They're literally both here. All we need to do is hold. All we need to do is hold. Ol' G.
The money is not good they need this round they do and it needs to be clean
No stray kills not going their way
This bait set up though chat this bait set up might be this into going and then arts and skills all of us
Pause for me G. What are things that you best on their attack side? He's trying to do everything
You know that fury I have to make a play in a TV for
You've got to be diligent in clearing these spots to supermoney likes to play here
Be aware of the spot
I'm just doing it on the previous half
Wall's open though, towards A
Now hearing it, neon signalling quite a bit in a spot like this deep prow as well
Just go in as a pack together, you don't need to clear out a scene if everybody goes through
Give me a nice slice
Please don't throw this
Nice, run over
On point
Yeah, you're right in the sense that
If you were in a 2v3 with SteelGarden in the pocket, I could see them maybe going for that, but there's Eugene and Exit to smart.
Primo, thank you.
And Astro, thank you.
There's a chance here that Ardizine actually does some big economic damage.
Thank you.
And board Simon, they might get them.
Their only escape option is to go for the double doors.
Done, kid.
So, that's what Ardizine...
The damage done. Chip damage. Through the wall. Paralympic! That's big.
Beamstar 3 towards the tail end. It is big.
Okianus gets to save his armor as well, so he can drop a teammate. The rest of them get
the plant money, they get the 3k for winning the round, but they do have to buy a lot of
utility back as well, so it's not gonna be great out there.
Such an insane stun here.
Neon ult Vyper ult. Neon ult Vyper ult. If you get a site, the comp picks the correct bomb site.
hasn't been much off the rip started around okay a little bit of a pressure
we have a vise and fade playing passive as fuck beaks we're assuming there's
gonna be some aggression some kind of flank play
it's getting constant mid-round information yeah it doesn't seem to be
but when they challenged him he didn't have a teammate near enough to be able
to hold on to see
Doesn't look like that's going to be relevant for the moment in this round.
Are they going to resake Ridley? Are they really going to resake or...
Hot shots, seeing if they can hunt out where some of our vice util is.
Oh my god, they're retaking it and it's failed miserably.
Means that this is another must win round for EG.
Alright, look at the money.
They've left Superman. Superman, this is on you then.
Thing is, that means no vikers.
Are they faking C? Are they faking C? What's going on, man?
Faking.
Well in the TP here quality who does commit it. What is going on?
The attention is welcome it through Alan.
We're missing them over a ticket a lot.
He got the call from the C players. Now this is fake.
But Ardson has Vizalt.
Realizing they're good with that space. The thorns.
Yeah, he does have Alton. Even the Vizalt on top of it.
Overdrive top top here.
Taking a swing and a peek for this one.
What is the position for?
Just spraying down from the high ground.
We have no plan to deal with this at all.
It's pistols out.
Chaos here for EG. Game plan, getting away from them.
Dijouzine is going to be so mad about that one, Fred.
There's a vice ultimate out for the defense.
He has his neon on in his hands.
He is the perfect guy for EG to go and take that space to get the kill on to Ardizine to play EG in this spot.
And you said it, Alums literally just spraying.
He's just spraying through a smoke from top heaven, catches Dijouzine in the head.
And the superstar player for EG hits the deck.
Look at this!
Yeah, that's such a big thing, man.
Alan doesn't get that we get Argent for free.
Because he had the keys to the castle,
and Alan's smart prediction on his path is...
Nice!
...saves them.
And we said that was a must-win round for evil geniuses.
They are now in a spot where their economy is broken.
Anazine's pressure in the post-round,
taking down a bunch of players,
and then having the ultimate in the late round.
Great call from Kuala Lumpur that it was a C-fight.
That call was fine.
The call was fine.
Furya did look way more aware because those calls had been coming this entire time.
I do think there should be some...
I don't want to just blame it because the call didn't work, honestly.
Like, if Dejizen doesn't get spammed there, he kills Artsen.
It's a different one.
However, there should be some variety for sure.
Like a random pop round, you know?
But they've also just thrown away so many weird post plans that I don't even know what to say.
The calm 1v2 flank, that's just a free win.
The B post plant, which is a crime, after killing Alim for free.
You know, when they've been able to run the like, crazy bucky round, supermen's inside
of a smoke with a bucky, those have been coming from defense side for EG.
What do you do when you're on attack and Dijousine doesn't have an ultimate and you've only got
pistols?
as well once they've had already anticipating the be hit on the eco for e g look at that
i mean the bible war it comes up heaven for a retake yeah that is a weird one i've never seen
it is purely because they're on the eco and they know that they are maybe most likely gonna be trying
to end b our nuance here advises here made us here a lot on our attack this wall also draws a
Clear line in the sand, by the way.
He's not seen overwhelmed by the Utah.
This is ult expended here.
Now he's way out to the open.
TTP needs to be accounted for to haunt at his back.
Not killed in time.
He's still just pistol, so you're working.
But you, he takes that timing.
Oh, it's so good.
They're like fighting fire with fire.
They're not letting him get any space.
Good for that.
Straight shot, Stowe.
Ok, honest with that sheriff.
And it's going to take more miracles, more magic, like that,
to see if you can put a stop to it.
Because right now, his fury in control.
I was looking inevitable that it's
gonna be up to 12 for them.
That's right, that's right, that's right.
It's safe.
Too many stupid rounds lost.
Now they need miracles.
Like they had this attack side if they win that year on.
Hardzen's a maximum form though, I gotta get it to him.
Guys, owning.
on board. So the pit is also to go around your right into a post plant. So many silly rounds
lost here. It's all an investment for me, G.
Throwing everything into this round. Call it in the Acro plate. It's time. Push back.
It's a horde of long range. The first time in a while.
Now I avoid it.
Just for all control.
You're on board rotating. See.
Most of the time, Arnazine has been setting up on it.
Com per usual is going to go back a open door and then we're going to be split.
spot too much same Viper wall and be clear game plan for furious a lot of spam
damage this is you know 21 HP gets away from the though keeps his life intact and
that could be pivotal there are three players stacked on this seaside on
defense not something the fury have been doing an awful lot comms calling has
It's actually been pretty good, like the defaults have been denied.
See?
Area information.
What are you calling?
It's just a view split.
Yeah.
It's as good as U-Tool.
It's lying in wait with the thorns.
The flash thorns are back in the wall, but he critically is not home.
It's a passive hold on the A site.
Superman may be able to get a pick now.
30 seconds though.
30 seconds left.
Losing the timing now to haunt.
Close most of the battles since he's found a gap.
The timing between most of this Uto and this wall still vents, thundered them, they don't know what to do!
They got a pit! Two months down, no pit!
And Allen, just holding the blast, takes matters into his own hands!
Quick task, quick glide, did you see him? It's an impossibility, isn't it?
How the hell do you find a way forward? Ten seconds remaining, the spike out of his grasp.
So close!
They were trying to convince the Beast, but it was just fucking... just fake it and go.
Like, you don't have to do some crazy shit, fake, parallel or anything.
God damn it.
Interesting result from Fury, actually, with the amount of pressure that they were under
in maps 1 and 3.
To be able to come out with a victory overall here...
What, you got today Frost or Terme?
What was the expected result of the way in which Frost was not at all?
And you've got to give each of their flowers because they played well today.
And then Komal gets dropped.
I mean, I don't know.
I don't know.
I actually don't know.
But I'm still happy with the way they're trying to play because they're trying to...
maneuver and outplay the opponent, you know, they're not just like, I just would like to
see some variety for like next week, EG, you know, do what you normally do. I like the
calling, just add random pops on top of it, you know, not doing just make it fucking the
same way every round is all, for example, the set round that fury had on bonus show,
that's really good. Like the B pop with the paranoia going into breakable, and then they'm
just killing supermen for free. Those kinds of rounds are absolutely necessary as well.
You need to have a balance. And the other thing is he's got to not flank anymore, man.
But he's got to outplay himself sometimes. Alright chat, that's a call on my end. 6 hours
stream not bad three two three mappers we take that uh calling it here who do we raid though
