day so yesterday when we saw them play in we saw heretics that was super super hungry benji had
an amazing performance yesterday i can say the same about woods i loved that breeze then playing
the sage it literally brought me back i was thinking i saw that sage i was like okay for team heretics
i went back into them but i couldn't think about how paper rags versus global e-sports
and alex after losing lotus he was saying listen we didn't know what to do against the sage and
Paperwrecks out of all the teams without aggressive and crazy. They are couldn't deal with the stage
If you put on top of that the performance that boo had on that all right
Yeah, boo has been really well. It's fucking game. Yeah, it's a big game
But yeah, I think it's a very big game you mentioned the Sentinel there
What is the last time heretics and fanatic play each other on that ascent yesterday against DBL and they had said to us
Yeah, they found it challenging. I think that that breeze composition. They played it in kickoff
EWC
Where I bet shakes
500 gifted and lost cuz they got reverse swept
What up Derricka? Derricka, be honest who do you want winning?
Are you a fanatic? You want a fanatic?
Hi Tamara. J thinking it's your what excuse me
There's one in mid across the cage. There's a moment where he's pushing a from the defense
Did you see the end my BR match I watched the final map yet that today is that they found dark of them and
Like second half of Havens
Have a duelist performing at that kind of top level again today. That was the kind of main struggle
I think for my father you're reading for the World Cup Netherlands brother
I was food was good. So you're thinking I'm scared to jinx. Well, just
Happening for fanatic right now. What was president vitality? Yeah, to be bitch
I think you just be yourself and I know you're not a bitch and I expect to bounce back
There were so many on characteristics mistakes that I feel we saw especially on havens
Well, we're gonna see you so I know can you keep me posted on the score if you can thank you as much as we're
Melville the way we want to catch up and see where the energy is the like is we're gonna head on down to Ginny and crash
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you
David gave you a shout out. I saw I replied to it a super important game in the low bracket
I mean my guy London starts here
So my question really is for the fanatic fans that are watching didn't need to have a cardiologist and speed dial or
There's gonna be a little cleaner. I think the fanatic fans should already know to have one on board
But yeah, it should be a pretty clean game today
I think we fixed a lot in the short amount of time that we were able to and
Confident going today. I'm looking forward to thank you so much. We're ready to head into the first game
Damn, they're right there standing right there. He said it should be a pretty clean game today. We're all right
That takes balls now you have balls when I don't put money on you you got balls
Okay
Okay, I
I can change the trajectory of this game if I bet 50 cents on Fnatic right now, but I
won't because I fuck with them still.
I really think it's gonna be a good game.
I actually genuinely believe we're going to get the best out of both teams right now.
Every map will be closed.
There's no way it's not.
Heretics is a lot of momentum.
Fnatic haven't played them in a long time.
You guys said EWC was the last time.
You just never know.
Side lemon picking for the prime and Ches picking for the prime.
Okay guys, I haven't watched heretics play.
split. Be honest. How do they look? Mid? Average, Tamara, thank you for the prize. They got
a lot better. No hate watch today, by the way. I am completely just...
gonna watch I actually I would like okay I'll be honest by bias says I want
an act to win but I would be okay with either team going I'm sorry I'm trying
to change the narrative but I can't
Two things interesting, first for Fracture, I love the fact that Fnatic is going to start on the attack because that also gives his team heretics defense that has a...
Exactly, it's like, I would like for both of these teams to be able to qualify, but if it's just one, I have to pick Fnatic. It's just a bias.
I need to see them at a Masters. Surely we don't miss out on a second.
If they had made first Masters, I wouldn't care as much.
And for Team Heretic, celebrate her against Eternal Fire.
Wait, they're playing Lotus.
Are you going to watch Arsenal?
No.
They're playing Viper in Lotus?
Yeah, so it's a question of...
I don't think Saverpne has ever played Viper.
So that is another layer, because I do not expect a change
in a composition that has made Fnatic so comfortable
all throughout.
You didn't bet?
No.
And it has to be a different for him.
Well, they're the long-players.
Monday.
Thank you, Prime Man.
They're off the players around the stage,
and while all that crap is being put to the side before,
they're also sitting down in the...
Well, we have Fnatic versus PaperXX.
I said whoa, whoa, we are not there yet. We still got to get past T1. These guys got to get past heretics, and I don't know who else
Let's not count them chickens
No chicken counting in my chat
Hey, thank you
on the attack is essential. Would you eat the bacon egg and cheese sandwich from
Starbucks? A speedy fetish.
A drink? No, I got a white chocolate mocha.
Is the duelist on each side right?
Finatic opts seem to go for that Phoenix the last time that we saw the fracture
How's Sivov going to sit in town?
You see David mentioned you I did I did see that
Very mainly drink
I'm a I mean am I supposed to like prove my masculinity by having a black or yeah full black coffee or dark coffee
Fuck that. You want to call me a bitch call me a bitch
I remember this this time G2 had when we were online we had to have that happen
It has to change the PC the real ones remember that day
And everyone mods we have to exercise our rights at some point these guys don't understand
I am the judge the jury and the executioner here. There are no second chances here. We don't give any you are permanently banned
I think that whatever happens. We are we have been that's it. You get one shot one opportunity
Think about upset as well. Like obviously we kind of mentioned already how team heretics had moments of struggling against that double-central composition
Let's not forget the last time the fanatic were playing this. It was a double-central composition
They were running device and the sage on this is the only power we have we have to use it
Yeah, we got our agents like popping up for fracture there and
Sure, huh?
I mean
Rain now is it a joke?
the agents that were expected to see I'm gonna I'm gonna surely it's Phoenix
the first half at worst is Phoenix I said to be absolutely cerebral because of
the reactions that we have seen from team heritage the coffin pulling heat
from boo here on the defense there you go stellar but historically boasters
that's better has been on another level so for them coming into today and as we
said having a little bit more time to prep fracture is very likely to happen
And Saibot was incredibly comfortable in this Phoenix, so I'm just looking forward to this
first half to start.
Yeah, I agree.
I think that when we're looking at-
Neon Raze or Phoenix Neon?
Look at how they're utilizing not only the fate and the Raze to fight for that in Main
Space, but then also when the Vyrawn start to get into play, Kosh Marus with the Operator
as well, using that as a threat towards Phonatic being able to take into that space.
And it's important to mention that because we are seeing in the praises of Team Heretics
No tail, no breach, not really any stopping power, to be honest, mains are going to be very easy to take.
Take a second thought which is not being the usual case and especially here on fracture
We need to see him deliver from the very first moment. You're almost identical
Compositions well comps. Yes, right, but agents, right?
Yes, I can do the rays and the Phoenix and so whilst you have
Chop fucking chop, which one do you favor a little bit more?
Which one's gonna give you that slight advantage on fracture? Oh, I think the rays honestly
Yeah, yeah, I think the Phoenix is good
many kind of mentioned it yesterday the way that in which fanatic were prioritizing those orbs so that
Sivov could constantly have his ultimate online to be able to take that space great in that aspect
but for me personally I like the utility of the race okay so the raise maybe just giving a slight
edge we'll see though as we're heading on into fracture our first map with Mitch and Tom
well this matchup usually is a final so it makes sense that today is the final opportunity for
one of these teams to keep pressing forward nothing locked in a playoff spot but to avoid being locked out
yeah there we go baby there we go boo versus boaster unfortunately
couple of the brits are now gonna have to eliminate each other one of them will be sent home any other
might step to stay in berlin because they for one fancy want to be going home it's a bit of a weird
scenario you feel like boaster takes too much load of calling and needs more help i don't actually
I think they have plenty of mid-rounders. Alpha has to be mid-rounding at this point. Same with Kai. I know Kaiak talks a lot. I know Crashly's talks a lot.
So even if Alpha doesn't, he has two guys to rely on. I've already explained this in a previous rant that I did. You guys don't know how much help IGLs get on top teams.
It's a lot. By their players.
decent at times for heretics we know the level that fnatic brings and for fracture
well in the past this would be a dream veto for fnatic but
this crush is changing his game plan
it's a big kill
what do you do?
what do you do? you recognize the push? what do you do?
just go back to A because you think they're going to push through?
flank?
That's a big molly. Can't flood. They just can't flood. Very thorough from Phenetic so far, and flank is held.
I don't like where Cypoth is. I don't like that at all. His teammates were not ready to fight. I don't know what you're doing.
Dude, dude, I don't get this, post-plan plan at all.
That's a nice, that's a great retake from Harrisix, but what the fuck is Sipoff doing?
Woah, like why?
Yeah, a great start from Reigns as well.
And I think we've spoken about this a lot in the recent few weeks,
is that Reigns has had some incredible games.
So the joke was that every time he plays against Foot,
he just becomes a guard, but we've been seeing it more and more.
If you were there to begin with and he heard the footsteps and he's under them,
sure, because he guarantees a kill at least.
But to go there later, when you don't even have to,
and the whole site is yours, all of Main is yours, even Dish is yours,
I truly don't get it. That was a pretty bad mistake.
NXN, Naxar, I think that's your one man. Thank you.
Oh, sorry, what's his name? Where's he? Saipoff, Saipoff, right? Saipoff.
for them as to you know where the trip is going to be in the by rounds was it
because my past won't make it at all.
It's a massacre in May when Crashies eventually makes it here.
They know all about it thanks to that trip, but it looks like just.
What's this fucking real name?
This is Alias is terrible.
What's his real name?
Give me his real name, this is Jack.
Call him Jack.
Alpha able to throw in a bit of a wrench into the works, but no lost and no weapon lost
really.
Clemente and he chose to name himself Syop. Clemente is fire.
You guys are fucking pissing me off. What the hell is his real name?
the extra weaponry
Clemente Millard
All right, all right, Clemente
No more real fucking around
You don't pronounce the T
Clemen
of the pistol and an SMG but still those rifles and won't be pulling any
Clemol, Clemol? Is it Clemol? No, because he's French.
Oh, Clemol, what the fuck?
Hey.
Okay, clean round, let's keep it clean.
But yeah, Aryan's just cool. He's the only pilot landing orbs other than via deaths
He's one away from his all but he'll get it online
I don't think he's gonna use it the scenario unless there are some crazy mistakes out of an attic post farm
You got loads of players with rifles there cost Maris get the zero three on the board after that initial fight
I think he was the only I just trying to do damage at this point
They're not gonna be able to win the bulldogs just sit here and then kill them exiting. Just chill
Everything goes the way if summer summer, so okay just just pops a few shots through the smoke of course
Rienz is having quite a game. There's quite a series of games indeed
Hmm
Clean they have fadals. They have cypher ults
Fadal is huge here. They could run a fake too if they wanted they could take arcade take tower
Fake b while two people walk aim in especially with everyone is rotating everyone and their mother is rotating
with the aggression
it's still had to be perfect
leave with the reveals
from Reigns and then Alpha there to keep him
nice boys come on boys
it's also worth knowing as well
we saw a moment ago that
brother wakie wakie we got bigger problems
Clem all is fucking around
fuck your foot
for now like the one map they played it
it was a 9-3 attack so it seems
we have both teams starting on their favorite side
from what we've seen so far
I
Feel as first contact many worlds
We lost your minds this time punished fanatic force to readjust no control over the south side of the map
And so again the death ball the numbers comes into play worked phenomenally last time
Ah, he took a timing with the dog? Fair enough. Fair, fair, fair. I thought he actually just
dried Pete. Yeah, I got shit. That's a huge kill. Missing that is actually insane. Big
fate ult as well. Benji? Ah. Clem all, what the fuck? Yo! Two! Two! No, he's a hero.
That's a superman, that's a superman.
Bro, did you see what just the amount of utile they just used on him?
Proudler, dog, fucking stun, fadalt.
And he gets two.
Phoenix Slash!
I like the fact that Crashies has actually been able to get an open plant gives him way more opportunities
But he's walking into the fuck with the fuck
Huge all good on my team he hundred percent wins that frauds kidding
Getting
Then that's low key kind of aids he dog he timing the dog and they were still aware of him
This is insane from Benji insane. He actually saved loot
With hell of a heart didn't even do damage
All right, Clem all you go to
draw in your eye what what a phenomenal hold from him up top how he got the first
yeah because that that was 1010 adjustment to make there alongside as you say okay
okay bro and get still playing like you knew everything
even even shooting the parlor in the middle of everything yeah you can watch america do yeah
reactions but it's nicely played of course four players big day today for the fanatic so financially
Still in a pretty good position one off getting the overdrive. They're loving this dishpaw. They're loving this dishpaw
Clem all relatively easy to clear that judge
It's corporate. I was boaster pass away. It's gone down. I'm dead the back of the name
Yeah, it was the stun from koshmaris as well. It just kept them in position. That's so nicely done
As you said the last round for pensions reactions, and this was the same
There's no way that you can calm that quickly
Everybody sing it from the same hymn sheet. That's what you'd like to see. This is where boaster shines the mid rounds. He's passed away. Oh
My god, they're repressioning arcade, but alpha they've inserted alpha dish
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, mama Mia
Clamult behind you
Yeah, they're gonna need to pause
Let's not do this dishbump anymore by the way. Let's stop.
Benji on fire is a problem. I'm not gonna lie.
This is a problem.
Wait, what happened to Vikash? I think he told me that I forgot.
Around the he's just L with that run it back you go. That's annoying. The overdrive being picked up you kind of expect
Unlucky hopefully something serious
Hey, do you think about alpha those first couple rounds put them some some big plays even when the numbers were against him
You think okay, well what happens when the rifles come out bone nothing much different really it's getting solid
From team heretics so far and as you can see within VCT
The record you already apologize to young. Yeah, of course
games when it comes to the big ones that stage one grand final especially it's
fanatic to come out on top that's from Australia and it's said it's 117 a.m.
even streaming since a pack the industry the end of games give the rules
thank you man appreciate that yeah I'm a fucking robot man hella dedicated full
time streamer by the way appreciate that you appreciate that my right chat
the same I even playing with a stand-in I think when they went to Shanghai and
and being able to make it to the final, always being that curse second place.
WP chatter.
If you're second place worldwide, that probably means you're the best team in your region.
Yeah, I think that's a...
At least safe, guys.
And then sometimes that will mean that you're like top three.
Is Durka still here?
How is Koshmarus?
He just had a pause from Fnatic.
In your opinion.
This is where they need...
Like this?
Like a bright future type thing or...
...favorite.
He's good with 120 on the clock. It seems like some of that early fighting will be given up on a group towards B main
But heretics having a similar idea and look for a second knowing to play against that's all neons
That's a huge entry man, but there's three more here. Ah, there's three more here
Okay, okay nice trades from insane trades
Yeah, let's just forget about dish no more dish that game plan was cool and all but
Let's not do dish anymore. It's stick to be
They should have won the other B round to Benji save them
A huge round seemingly locked in from them already
I think a big part of this is that early game
Acknowledging the heretics have had so much control over the map early
You think about heretics have a lot of old stuff good old
very dangerous very dangerous this entry is so clean who is kind of getting clean
I'm not gonna lie second time he's been clean entry with no damage done
playing that north side to start seeing if there's aggression seeing if someone
from heretics gets curious pushback thanks for one man thank you thank you
side together it's simple it's effective I think as well with like commonly a
aggression in the early stages of the round something heretics like to do be
on that south or north side so just make a thing it okay we haven't seen much of
that towards B that's a freer spot that we're not gonna find in me okay they die
to set alpha up dish and then I think it's also one where it's harder for the
Neon's walking underground. That's pretty big. It's a pretty good
Overall map default because they have dish now using fade-eye. They have camera folding arcade
So this guy can walk underground if you really wanted to
They have the whole map so passive from heretics just accepting the XX
Oh my god, woot. This is this is your round if you do this timing
Kayaks aware though kayak
Oh god
The trades went in their favor and Cypher all chat and Cypher all there's no timings
These two are flanking a man as well
All the B guys are going to do is live. Round over, round over.
All of those are your brain. I thought he was going to be watching Flank.
Nah, it's impossible to read this. Nah, it's not possible to read this.
Nice try.
That is a beautifully played round. They're playing, okay, Heretics are playing really passive
and Fanatic is taking map control well.
But that little piece of proactivity at B main there, this right here.
They heard Fnatic make noise and then they assume they probably left and knocked one guy outside B.
And then they heard Austin the fucking Goomba stomping back up B so they just got a free kill.
Why did Austin go into the smoke though? Did he go in the smoke to prowler? How did he get killed so quickly?
in the last round as well that's weird I don't know about that because they
could just be in there why not just you have a prowler you're using a prowler
can't be that greedy in terms of like how far you want it to go
are you serious
Yo.
Fnatic can't lose this round by the way.
There's a brim ult and play, and a fade ult, and a neon ult and play.
Oh no.
Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Yo! Whoever's tower just saved Kosh!
Dude, they just saved Kayak.
Whiplash even 2-1.
Nah, bro. Whoever was tower is a fucking hero of this round. If Kayak dies for free and that Neon is able to get to the site,
different round.
Who's shooting up there? Was that not the Phoenix?
Come on.
something he's like am i still open to this other angle and just hesitates enough that i feel like
that kill comes a lot easier to kayak and they're able to hold on to everything as you said a massive
alt dump for heretics in a retake where sure they had a difference again you use everything you guys
are idiots come out with something in this round and if that guy doesn't get slowed down by the guy
shooting from tower kayak does not kill him dumb fuck i don't understand why i need to like explain
from A to Z.
On the back of it, it's giving away a lot of advantages.
What could be ults that win you rounds in the next,
that turn those 50-50s into favorite scenarios?
And again, the first and last thing of the prime,
I do think that that's somewhere that coaches
want to get back in and steady the ship here.
The characteristics are assumed.
They are because they have players that step up when others.
So I have no idea what that means,
because you could say that about any team, any, any team, literally.
You see, David did a review, yeah.
Still a good defense off, man.
I'm going to argue Heretic should have won that round
until Benji whiffs.
And even then, with the ults they used, they should have won that round.
That's a steal for Fnatic.
From what we've seen on this attack
Them going in level
Only begins to you there is a re-investment here for heretics the judge
Good old judge and tower so hard to clear they have no breach no tail either
Only brim alts clears that cleanly
This is huge oh my goodness
He is just too easy to take
All right chat someone's got to explain to me what's going on. He has been intrigued at B for free five rounds
No in general. That's so sad. That just can't happen. This is a big entry though.
So the fanatic fans are back.
That's good at least.
Ooh, wow, wee!
Brim ult, neon ult, fatal, just take this round slow, you win.
They have arcade, alpha has all of the B mains, this is a free ass round.
Yeah, they're being hella careful. Brimolt's tower, Icarum.
NSNU, thank you for the two of them.
Fadalt and Brimolt use this round, guys.
and safely as possible even still crush marines has managed to find a kill he's trying to bait them out
with the tap of the spike and eventually well nice trade from benji and one small there's another
layer to this another player that they have lords think of the prime and then all the more
we've only just figured out that alfieir is back towards the ramp for boot chance of
got a girlfriend and went from playing 10 hours a day to four hours
I don't even know what to say.
You got me.
after a slow start I think they'll be pretty happy either way well yeah there's
only two rounds left to play with so in this round where the danger of a pistol
completely upsetting your round hell we saw what Benji could do from heaven a
couple rounds ago so it makes sense you put the orbitals right through I'm
surprised at the nightfall as well fantastic work boys let's go like he
said even better riding the way making sure that they don't give any
opportunities to fight back in what results I need something for me to the
Okay, so they're fighting for B main camera guns so alpha calls for them to take a main
These can get you in. Oh god big big round. This is big. This is big brother. What a risk
How risky is that shot?
Oh, they're dead right no way they hold
It's a big old
That is a big old
Okay Austin's pressuring arcade for his team to walk into a slowly. Oh almost worked actually there was a world there
I
Stay this Austin
Get this not oh I was gonna say save but
Yeah, I don't think that would have crossed his mind for even the second and actually in the time
It's gonna take to take this fight
is going to win the round. He just wants to kill him.
The heretics, but yeah. Just for being a rat.
He's like, you know what? We don't like rats.
Alright, well, you're for sure dead now.
You're a teenage bee. Probably just going to try and hold on to the gun.
And he's not going to.
Mission failed. One more to play with now.
Good recovery from Fnatic, but overall...
Great half from heretics.
It could have been better. It should have been better.
What do you do about this?
every setup in the world every strategy you put into play
This one right okay. All right heretics ain't bad guys the way they are
Mmm
The way they're moving around in the map and their protocols to like triple flank
Their pressure and names also very good solid. It's their map pick though, so I can't glaze too much
It's around the game, but
Unfortunately, not a lot of them coming off the kills
It's gonna give the space
I'm to go through on the run if I got the plane on the plane on here. It's a plane on I've got this
Wait he died they cleared him
What a recovery here brim brim has to beat the knee on the a
opens up a
However, he's faking it
All beautiful incredible and now alpha's in B as well
Mid-round where Fnatic is best right here
oh
Yeah easy easy easy work
The spike will not be stopped on its rush towards the B site
Such a good job to cancel and just refight behind them
If those guys were able to get away no chance for fanatic
Good news is fact is flying
Stop actually
I was looking about her at the end kayak Kenny is this true to make this
An even half 30 and seven for him a different result
But we have to see what's gonna happen in the next for the past weeks. I hate chat
With the race I don't actually hate you guys, but like fuck my heart actually drops
Sanding by with the man himself for an update
The race of 3k has been concluded on DCM side of things alpha
I thought I'll play you a little clip first things first see your reaction to that
What did he say oh, he said he's better than them
Damn, Hank Hank said I don't compare myself to no one I don't care
I mean alpha don't listen you saying that I don't care who is getting free K kills and stuff
And if he was trying to be humble a little bit
He was saying if you think he's better is better and stuff, but I don't think I'm better than him
I don't think he thinks he's better than me
I think it is well on everyone is good in their role and I want to say congrats to him that he reached his free K kills
Hmm to get 10 K kill and I am I hope he's gonna have success for that
I like that
I can't count how many times I've won this shit region. I'm tired of shit. Just get me a chance
been on purpose so they can get some more kills.
Well, thank you so much for your time and we're going to head back to you guys.
Well, a tough race to lose, but the road to London has a finish line in sight, but for
Fnatic, quite a contender in their way, at least on the first leg of the journey.
Team Heretics pushing them to a 6-6 score line.
Good recovery.
Great recovery.
as well this is for the arms and they want pistol but how are you feeling about
their attack side so other people know the thing is a lot of the time they've
been so self-dominant in that first half that we've seen a lot less of their
attack I think both sides in theory are going into their weaker half now but
nonetheless like do you really care about my opinion bitch while we bother
that when we can listen to the comms as soon as kaya gets this line everyone
It's like a ranked player raging, I swear to god.
Good urgency though.
That's exactly how you should calm down.
Wow.
Now is the time, there's so much that Kayak would have to do.
I think this has come down to basically just how many orbs can he farm up in the next few
seconds especially with the deep control of both of those.
And eventually, it'll get the easiest kill of the day so far.
Seven to six, both pistols now going the way of heretics.
We're going to blame the first pistol on Klamal, however.
the fact that they managed both, but an important one to take, none the less.
Oh, without a doubt.
Yo, if Koshmars doesn't do what he did, by the way, heretics lose, they get flooded
on.
He's single-handedly by getting that kill stopped to flood, and then they were able
to take their time with the tower player.
I think Fanatic woke up, and that's a conversation that I think is very consistent with Fanatic,
Making up in the series again, the era, the dynasty of the comebacks that they've had.
But then we've seen it in events as well, we've seen it in...
The fact that Coach Marz got that kill and lived is insane though.
Getting better as the tournament goes on, and as the stakes grow steeper, grow greater.
But here with the pistols, there's not a peep from the defensive side, boo goes down, but...
Eh, that'd be fair, decent tag on boo.
And it is alpha left alone again
Try to
Not win the round really they cannot get bonus bro. They simply can't get bonus. Yeah, no doubt he will but I
Think it's an unreasonable goal. Yeah, you know
I'll fear it doesn't reasonable things sometimes I
Will say
the fact that he was in the race for kills and you know concan gets to play the whole of his playoffs
Yeah, it's not really fair. It's gonna mess up right I would say it was cheating but you know it should be a per series right
He didn't
Clean
Earning up a lot of orbs early couple away from that show stopper on most maps we talk about okay
Maybe in a round ever a classic thing the prime. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. He could very easily get it this round
There are no forums on offer
That's even without fire and a shot
You can see prices taking my heritage north side for here same flood. They're ready to flood. Oh, no. Oh, no
No, no, no, no
No, it's a free kill on alpha
Fnatic just could not expect he got the old
Come on, come on with the first
Wow
Executioner of Benji fishy and with kayak alone this round
Shameless they they took their bruises and lumps in the first two, but thought this is where we'll swing
They fall and flat on their face
I mean even if he beats them he hears them he's going to beat them but he
doesn't have the angle no unless he drops down the ladder the rope sorry no
he doesn't have the angle yet
holy shit holy shit holy shit oh I remember this spot
Just stuck within the site kayak you have to win this
Breathe okay, they're high-low now. It's over. It's over. I can't win this
They know he's not gonna go this way he can't wait what is the site for doing? Oh hi low again huge
From Benji fishy and more importantly a huge victory for heretics. Oh really quick thinking from Benji and poo there as well
Nah, these next two kills are huge.
Even ulted and didn't get anything.
I feel like Clemol got a little over-stim, no?
He should have gone through Arcade, but then he ran back in to main.
This guy said Celeba red card, the other guy said Gabrielle red card.
What the fuck they do?
Both fucking knock someone out?
Wait, wait, hold!
They're gonna run B, they're gonna run B.
Guarantee it.
Okay yo, they have to, they have to recover this.
They must win this.
That post has already retrieved a gun as well.
Of course for heretics they were at least able to get out with a spike.
could have been really dangerous if my god they're refighting this is big
it's beautiful these smokes my boats are a huge as well
you want my gun
that was good keep it take it someone take it
I can't.
I can't.
Okay, here we go.
Here we go, Alpha!
Bang!
down, revenge you alone, big plays as we've said, we've seen him deliver but this one too hefty a package.
Fnatic needed that shit, needed it.
Fnatic did a good 7, very well played in the late stage.
And I think the perfect time for it as well, it felt like Aratix were just about to run away with the game.
Well yeah, you'd lose your bonus, you win an emotive thrifty right off the back of it and I think that
also just not only the initial trap play as you said the sort of bait from
Seavoc was sublime but then you have like a change of okay we've now swapped
back to the other side and then we have another player base just give your
superstar player opportunities for free kills and hey it's a crazy thing he's
sometimes gonna get free kills then you have the other superstar with a rifle
he didn't have at the beginning kill both of the end crazy how that works you
Yeah, it was filling back into space as well. Alpha had the right timing to get in towards
elbow.
Okay, dish default while raising holds arcade and then they have Cypher bottom side. Very
standard.
Get out, equalize the numbers, but well they got a quick fight. That's for sure. 120 on
the clock.
I would have liked to see them break this camera. It is risky though.
They're able to invest
They don't have that big old gun. They don't have the op 3d hands of kayak and
opponents about to round that
Shot um chat
He gets his that's big. That's big. Come on. Come on still waiting on the site and they know it for heretics
There'd be time to say for all to take it down as it rings out up in heaven
Or they could send it to the other side of the map
They need to make a choice soon 45 on the clock. Oh my god. Oh my god shot
saws gone so
The goes away holy shit, holy shit, holy shit
Alpha
Can't go through it's weird. No, it's weird because there's no flankers
Trips on both sides. They don't look at flank
Round over the same sense. There's a you can't win you can't win you can't win you can't win
You can't win get the fuck out of there
This is a big save.
It's fine. I'm Kimmy's gonna pin this actual score. So always I can't get raised by it anymore
But it does feel like we're getting close to the line in the sand
It's been a back-and-forth affair so far, but a trip at this hurdle for fanatic will probably leave them in the dust
Yeah, you guys think it should be more aggression from fanatic here like a faster arcade push arcade slash dish
Like top side push or bottom side push just to get the entry I
Think they either do that or they fake it they fake the push to bait them into a reaction
Like they like it for example if they think bottom side push maybe they rush through dish
You know
Kind of set the pace yourself because right now they're kind of just chilling in the site
Feel defensive push on one of the four lanes is on this map is necessary when in the mid-round
Yes, I do like you do not want to mainly retake from CT spawn
It's like a rule that every team should have on fracture. You want to be pushing through mains or dish
Whatever like topside or bottom side and big flanking your
Rotates you should not be rotating through this lane with a majority of their players
It should be here if it's planted be it should be here with three guys or here with three guys
How because you need to take this or this over before you retake the site if you come from here
you get sandwiched so you've essentially already lost the round at that point
The marathon not a sprint for sure but it will turn into a quick burst of energy if they
lose out on this one one final leg before the map closes and heretics favor this has
to be fnatic's final stand big investment shot this is a two free a bomb plant no two
free this b-pop was a gorgeous call they have phoenix salt knee on all they have to win
this. I don't like the majority spawn chat. I just finished explaining this. Oh no. Skyhack
death. Oh my god. Booster! What a fucking retake! I'm sorry, I was wrong. Jesus!
How is that retake even possible like that? Okay, that's big. But like, Kashmara, sorry
drunk or high which one? Just play tower. I mean Kayak, yeah Kayak getting a kill there.
It was double flank right? Who were the two people that flanked? Sorry Alpha came from
B main. He went down and then helped Kaia get that kill. B-pop again. Alright chat, round
two. For sure they plank for B main here. Oh god, they're heavy tower but most are
as ult. They're big flanking. Here we go. The round ends right here. This right here.
This is where the round ends.
Ah, round over.
Sorry guys.
Sorry guys.
Sorry to say.
Wait.
Is the round not over?
Wait, is the round not over?
They think he's towered.
What's he doing?
Oh my god!
How are these retakes happening?
Wait, what's he doing?
Oh my god!
How are these retakes happening?
Bro, what more can Benji do? Can he get some guys?
two B post plants 5 B 5 clean retake it is a really good aggressive combo let's
avoid that let's let them get the post wait why was the why was Austin just
like hella cute like adorable there you know like a little boy let's play
aggressive ahead of it and then just the group up towards the end from fanatic
was more than enough in those retakes and that's what's been working for them
look at the board right now rocks that door they would see her ones three rounds
of one of eliminations one with the spike exploding in between and in the
The rest for Fnatic have all been retakes.
Yeah, the retakes have been looking very good, but you have to think about those rounds where
they'll get back.
Okay, all right, Chuck.
All right.
They have a nightfall.
They have an orbital strike in play as well.
Those ults are helping out a lot in those fights.
I do think that that lock-in mode we talked about from Heretics, and then we're at that
point.
I actually don't even know.
I feel bad for Heretics a little bit.
I can't lie.
I want Fnatic to win, but I can't help but feel bad.
Two perfect calls. Two B pops. No one there. They don't lose any HP.
Bro, they need to plant for B main.
Like, this plant here forces you to play on. You play here, you can be anywhere here, and you can play tower.
sliding sheriff kills which by the way I don't know why that's a thing I don't
think we can down reins with anyone yeah yeah to be fair 55 is dangerous plant if
you have someone covering you it's more than worth if someone's spanning this
bomb plant you just kill them you have someone right beside you just looking at
this you could even tap it once to see if someone spans a lot of information for
fanatic but it's worth it in the long run high risk high reward let's put it that
Eric think of the tier one, but you are right it is dangerous
Imagine this is a round they lose fucking get eco. That's half lag I guess
Okay, oh Phoenix ult?
No, never mind.
Perfect.
Um, guys?
Oh, this is good though.
This is really good.
They're isolating a main.
Um, should we stop running up at some point?
Oh, Stan.
Osteño Roberto.
They've still left at the back of the site Kyla Keys, not a man that you want to try and deal with in eight seconds.
Beautiful, man.
Superb Reid from Fnatic to level things up.
Amidst the game so far, is anything to go by.
In both halves, eight out of the ten rounds from Heretics have come in those first five.
This is a really, really good read push, knowing that the opponent was doing a sand split,
so you want to fight one side or the other.
You don't want to get stuck in between because then your teammates and spawn have to run through smokes to help you
So it was really good. They fought together and isolated the weaker side of the hit
Oh, that's a big kill. That's a big fucking kill, man.
Oh, it's gonna make them second guess everything they're going back to be though
It's supposed to be dish pressure into be hit, but now they don't have a neon
Well, you have to have a good all-tier or it's over you have to have a God all-tier
It just has to be
Fanatics also Frank flanking look at this
Oh my god, getting clear tower though chat, getting clear tower though.
Oh my god, imagine they go away.
Are you fucked?
You sick, sick little dogs.
They went A. Oh my, they're sickos.
Oh my, they're sickos.
Oh my, they're sickos.
Look at this plant as well.
Okay.
If they lose this round, I'm done.
I'm sorry.
I'm done.
If heretics lose this post-plant, I'm done.
No one helped them.
No one helped him. Oh my god, they lost. Oh my god, they've lost the round. Oh my...
No one shocked the ult for Booth! Yo, Booth is out here making Superman calls.
them free post plans and they couldn't save him.
No, no, no, no, that's unacceptable. I feel bad. I feel bad.
a lot thrown into the last round the showstopper.
Was used, I will say, utilized.
The Alpha's got tower for sure.
Oh god this is weird now, it's weird now.
They've been giving up this side a lot and instead out here,
it's out there.
So never mind, he has reinforcements.
He's chilling.
Maybe he's doing a nasty surprise but seems to be something
that weather wearer who's going to swim up town.
Good job, man, great traits.
You're gonna be the pretty final kill, but Sevo will not care.
If I'm boo, and I get backstage, I'm looking at all my teammates and asking is no
You have three good calls and they lost all three post plans. I'm sorry. That is disgusting
He's taken out the trash that was unacceptable. I was a big 3k from under pressure
And that's not only gonna be confidence for the next map, which is the pick up fanatic, but
Him coming on line as you said right in the nick of time
Austin oh, it's a good jump swap from Benji
Oh god, I'll steal Roberto. I'll steal Roberto
Coming out of their opponents map pick and it starts with
Both are we are why why?
Okay, it was secured
Bro oh
My god, they lost both they lost both pistols
Oh, my yo heretics. They're done. They're done. They're done. There's no way to recover from this
You cannot recover from the disaster. I just watched
Where's dirkta? He said they were decent
No dude, that is unacceptable
Bro bro bro bro what a fucking monumental choke
to be post plants you plant in a pretty like okay spot not the worst not the
best you lose those post plants cleanly
and then boom make I don't know who made the call I assume it's boot the mid
round called to go through spawn from a be hit through spawn to a completely
beat the opponent's rotation, get the bomb down for free, and then a phoenix ult chases
you down because your teammates are fucking cowards.
Ay, ay, ay, I don't even know how you recover from that.
I actually don't know.
Genuinely, I don't know.
I feel for them.
Ah, yeah, Benji, I mean, you did all you could then.
I think I saw you miss a shot maybe one time.
That is, that is, that's sad.
Man, Woot actually had hella first bloods in my treatment.
I didn't see the loot, uh, ult, then Gino, I didn't...
That's insane, man.
That's actually insane.
I don't know how they recover from that.
I mean, the only thing, the only good thing to take out of that is they should,
heritage's going, we should have won the map. We fucking, we lost to ourselves.
So we are headed to Lotus. That's fanatic's pick.
Yeah, man. This is a two-oh. It's got to be a two-oh, right?
But I'm down for three maps though. Ascent.
Assange.
Are you gonna go are you gonna watch that again? No, I'm not. No, I'm not gonna do gym or eat. I already ate
I'm gonna nap. I'm gonna nap before America's
I gotta get that energy back. Hi Kim. I'm good. I'm good
All right guys. Yeah, I'm gonna go watch the rest of our snow game until the next game starts. Yeah
I know it every day is a punny
Yeah, it's my time, yeah, I put that on rival
No excuse, gotta get to the finals
Take all of my idols and turn them to rivals
It's all another man, the trophy is vital
Game time, that I'm coming in clutch
No game time, man, they can't keep up
Your game's on a line, seconds on time
You can't off-fight, it's gotta be us
Never to crash, you're gonna have to let it fall on me
I'm dancing for it, all you gotta call on me
They say it doesn't kill you, make it strong enough
All that pain in the main, it's too amount
All right, how does running Phoenix change how you approach the macro on factor?
Um, I mean obviously the alt is really strong so we're focusing a lot on like funneling orbs into
getting Clem his ulti a lot of times.
I also think that just gives you some nice tools for retaking,
so flooding a little bit more
and just being a little bit more on the fly rather than static.
And yeah, doing that sort of play also pretty nice.
But yeah, it's also a lot about individual comfort.
The boys feel good, Clem feels good on the agents,
so just a nice change of role.
A nice change up for the agent, but very impactful
and something that might have been glossed over
in that coach confession is them
I was just talking about how
impactful and nice it is that
utility for retakes and
honestly jumping straight into
it. That was the make or break.
I feel between heretics and
fanatic, right? Because for
heretics, it's like back and
forth. You're doing really
great. But at the end of the
day, fanatic just had
outstanding retake after
retake. Yeah, we end up the
first half on a six to six, so
it was all about how
fanatic was going to present
that defense. I was telling
you before we jumped into the
match, and there's something
that I expected to see a lot
to see on fracture time and time again. The most important round that Frenatic was able to close
where those re-takes were time and time again. We see a team heritage that doesn't really know
where to position themselves and are just lauded with all of this utility that Mina was talking about.
Yeah, I think I had mentioned that I preferred the rays coming into this.
You're wrong.
No, see what can be wrong in some instances. But I think that's because of the kind of method
that we're shifting into, expecting to see more sentinels. But I think Milan kind of hit the nail
on the head, right? The way in which they were utilizing the Phoenix kit to be able to come in
for these retakes. And honestly, all the players were able to step up because of those protocols
that were in place. I think also that there's many things that go for Phoenix in this map,
especially within this meta. So because of the way the fracture is and how open the spaces are,
the more barriers or like utility that you can have to cover that vision, the better. And in the
the way that Fnatic has it.
They have Kayak's wall.
They also have the cages from Alpha.
They have obviously the smokes from Brimstone,
and you also add in all the utility up from Sivir.
So it's very overwhelming, and it gives you a lot of tools,
not only for the retakes,
but also to even get in and out of sight
when you're on the attack.
So it's a very nice balance and something that you can abuse.
I wasn't worried if the right word here,
but it was just intriguing to see that heretic
started off so strong in that first half,
where it felt like maybe we're going to have
bit of a blowout and so fanatic taking the time out. They slow it down a bit more. And
is there a specific player that you think was able to keep them in the race a bit more
whilst it took the rest of fanatic to?
Benjy.
Yeah, Benjy.
No, I think not on fanatic.
Sorry, no.
I know it's Benjy.
I think Rashi's first London life.
Yeah, Benjy really.
Yeah, like from the get-go play and from Tower, Benjy was absolutely amazing.
Yeah, me in the first half, actually, I really, production, this is scary.
I would really like to do it on the part of the staff there.
Yeah, even if in the second one he didn't have the craziest numbers,
Pinter was being such a nuisance to deal with.
I really like how Fnatic were taking the time.
I know that they are very known for that.
To actually understand how Team Heritage was present in the map today,
but I really think that he stepped up,
and I think that taking Arcade and everything would have not been possible without him.
Yeah, I think the key kind of takeaway was that both teams were able to have such a great defensive path,
and then Fnatic obviously being able to come away with it once that switch sides happened.
So yeah, I think crash is obviously having a great performance in the first half as we mentioned and then I'm just being able to close out
Yeah, a lot of things going right forth now
Like the retakes having a player that could keep you in there try and shut down what heritage trying to do
But for her takes they're gonna have to look towards that next map
They want to be able to make sure that they're gonna be able to have a better showing on murder
The sight of many hard fought battles between you and fanatic what's the key to beating them on it?
I think the key for me is not really map related, I think we're in complete control of that map just now and we lost our composure, we let the hard rounds get to us and we just completely bottled it to be honest, so it doesn't really matter the map, we know how we need to win, we were in a good position that game and we just kind of didn't close it out, so the key to beating them is making sure we bring our aim to be honest.
do you read into this, Kukuku, as they're a bit beaten, a little bit too low energy for what feels like a series still going on?
Or it's that right amount of being critical and having the discipline of you need to show up and be that bit better?
Sometimes we get this kneeling weather where they're very honest. I like that personally.
And I think that their rights, like they were very close to beating them and at some point they forgot how good they were.
I think that one of the players that didn't show up that had been showing up especially on fracture was Kozmara's.
Yes, would had a couple of rounds that were ridiculous that double with a
Wooden the double kills and now the bowl is in their court when we think about
Lotus and I was I was saying like oh what's that is still going to be playing like he has never played the the vibrator
Is this going to be a one-for-one? Is this a way how fun that fanatic wants to surprise us with?
Yeah, I think that's something to consider right?
We don't actually know what Steve off is going to be playing and so we come into this where they could have a card up their sleeve
it's just a question of what does that actually look like?
Yeah, hopefully those questions are going to be answered for us soon, right?
Instead, we get to keep looking towards Lotus,
what is going to be happening and hear it about Agent Select coming up.
We get to talk about a little bit more of if we're seeing what exactly you want
for success on the side of heretics to push it to a game 3.
Yeah, for the side of Kajak, he had an amazing map one.
I know that we were highlighting crashes,
but he would have not been possible without Kajak bringing the performance
he promised us at the beginning of the day.
but we have to look at team Heretics. Elimination is on the line. Lotus is the map that they have played the most throughout this stage.
We've talked about Benjy Fischin, how he's performing, especially with the VICE. He has to be the one stopping the aggression.
Yeah, and let's not forget, team Heretics, obviously suffering a loss to Eternal Fire on this map.
I think especially things that they probably needed to work on and come away from.
With that was the amount of times that they were trying to punish the lurk coming out from Echo.
And he was just being able to pick up two of them.
So yeah, hopefully we've been able to have a look at that
and fix those kind of issues coming into date.
Teased it before coming into this, Kikuka.
Siboff still hovering that Viper,
waiting to see that it's gonna be right.
Like, so far he's been kind of like,
slotted in for the plans that Fanatic had originally had.
Rebecca, sure it is going to be his first Viper.
Now it's all about how much Fanatic has prepared this
because do not forget, they decided to go here.
And it has been the ultimate comfort for them
that has been actually the key word for this first stage.
So looking into this one,
Fnatic should be pretty confident.
Yeah, confident instead of momentum, I feel like.
Might be more of a conversation here,
because I thought Heretics were gonna have the momentum
not only coming to the series,
but going into map number two with how they started off.
And so now it all is this Fnatic having everything.
Do they have the confidence?
Do they have the momentum?
Just fucking shoot it straight at the wall.
Are you fucking serious?
Let's give it to Declan Rice next time, okay?
Like then having them in this lotus
and how much it brings it,
The ceiling is very, very high for Sable to match up on too.
Well, it's a big ceiling for Fnatic, a lot on the line for both of these teams.
Heretic's willing to bounce back, make sure that they're still in the running,
but this is elimination.
Let's see how it wraps up if it is going to without Karthus' mission top.
Well, a map three could be on the horizon,
but for that to happen, Heretic's have to make the bounce back here
on Fnatic's map choice of Lotus.
Now that first map, and I think that raised the concerns rightfully so down on the desk
Heretics strong start. Let's go. Definitely not good about three. It's so fun. You know what I mean? No
Get our heart racing a little bit
Everyone here wants a map three right
Scenarios I think that was always been what's been super impressive for me is that throughout different iterations of this roster
I think this is the best map for boaster in its glory.
Yeah, Derricka. See, we're...
We just love the game, man. We're here for the love of the game.
...and the two times they play this even battering eternal fire who then battered Heretic.
So it's gonna be a lot for Heretic to prove here,
and they are picking up the pace immediately in towards that B site.
Oh boy.
Well, a confident start.
These guys have RRQ syndrome. They cannot win a post-plank to save their fucking lives.
It looks like even after fighting B for free, they're not happy.
They want more and so in towards Hobbit they go.
Roots how?
Take the climb then.
They need that doorway.
Nice shot by Kayak.
Swing back in.
A little risky from Sievoff.
But now they'll just wait.
They'll just take this fight together.
At least they'll try to...
That's a really, really good fight though.
Oh they just got shot on.
But that's a good fight to take.
They did good there.
Benz fish, benz fish, benz fish.
Oh Root, that's a huge kill.
He has Nade.
I'll need first, I'll need...
It's Benji and Woot.
Benji, Benji, Benji, Benji, Benji is perfect.
Oh, Woot, that's a huge kill.
He has Nade.
I'll need first, I'll need Nade.
Nading.
On their side is Crash, he's just under pressure
and the stick and the smoke not gonna fly.
We've got ourselves a game that's three out of three pistols.
Two kills, we've got Nade's back.
There's no way that he could just sit within it
and diffuse from that point onwards,
but I'll be honest, I'm a little bit bad for Kaya.
Just the fact that he comes out of this scenario,
Getting two kills, I really felt like he could have even got the third if he was a little bit luckier.
I like the pro activity and post plans. You know what that shows?
Shot? What's the word? What's the word? Have I taught you guys well or not?
What is that show? The pro activity?
But they've been able to do that in the last map.
Anyone? Balls, correct Gabbo. Balls.
It shows balls that you're playing to win, man.
You're playing to win, you're not sitting there letting the opponent retake like
on you like a little bitch.
Need balls man.
In Woodall. Thank you for the tier one man.
And Tantia, thank you for the prime. Appreciate it guys.
Thank you guys.
Thanks.
They're in the same boat wait you always somebody over need balls
Wait, I can see you need to play at your pace not the opponent's you don't play not to lose
I don't think they have any plans to move any other banger quotes that I'm missing
We'll just look down to this mic so let's start for heretics once again, but
that has sort of been
The expect take exactly you need to be hungry
angry sacrifice thank you for the part proactive not reactive exactly well you
You could be reactive as well. It's situational though, but I don't want to be that guy. You know, I want to be like that. Actually, but...
think that I'm confused a little bit when I see Sevoff play the game because
he's in the monitor top. I could ask him what the seasight
smelled like. His nose is in that. It's disturbing.
Very few people are bringing the red guard vibes back from back in the day where that
man Genie when he pressed his eyes. 5v5 post. 5v5 post. He's up close. Fanatic's favorite.
That's gonna help him hit some shots this match. Benji Fischy flank perhaps.
This is it the win condition. They can delay enough
Wait holds they're aware
Bye
Hold up to the angle and we'll be able to do so yet to die, but that will change very quickly
Re-ends down with and now that backstab has to come in again, but Benji already claiming his second flash
Holy fuck Benji. Thank god they won that. I would have called them all terrorists and just went to go watch my Harambo
I like as well. There's literally no point in watching this if they lost that round
To not split up and go take Benji down and give so much more space back to the other team instead focus on the site
Break through and that they did there's really no point
perfect position rain something to prime them
And
One of the things I find funnier about that is we've seen so many neon they want three bonuses so far
So my god, they gave it to that lurker because they knew exactly what they were gonna do with it
Yeah, that's very true. That's nasty. That's a nasty part to have
definitely a bit of a frustrating round for poor old Alphier what a huge round
from Benji though gonna be kept to the sea side gets the entry keeps the space
clutches out the rounds still just about online from where alpha standing right
now and that's key because the B side and C are defended although they have sent
C ball through just to be sure to be safe and be wary of the split coming
through it's very likely heretics you how many teams do we see break that door
go through the B site but it allows them to have so many numbers is the point
towards the part of the map that heretics are playing on if alpha goes
down that goes out the window now they know alpha has this face which means
they're like weak on C that's a lot of info alpha just gave up he stayed around
for a second or so longer this entire round spirals out of control but so now
they have to push that line back force heretics to push into the numbers this
This could still be a fanatic round.
Yeah, the Westpush with the Tartan.
Turb Breaks caused the rotate.
Yeah.
Wow.
Well played.
Good job breaking that turret.
We're making some pressure at sea.
It changed the entire Tartan set up.
Bear in mind what he has.
Atlantic and his utility and hero through.
Don't you dare.
Oh, no, you didn't.
The ultimate coming on line.
I don't blame him for all things there, by the way.
Not about all.
Because anybody flanking is being caught.
I'm lucky, kind of.
My energy fishy again.
His lurks are being impactful.
for the remaining two just the pistols are in the moment you're all taken there
oh god the flash
that flash is going to cause problems, thorns going to cause even more
and then he flashes all the time ticking away but he can force a fight
that player up close banji ain't in danger and he doesn't even know it yet but
that shot fired gets re-ends look in the right way it's an easy kill in the end
four to zero I don't want to get ahead of myself because in the last map on
both halves we had this moment where we go oh I'm getting worried about the
one I'm gonna get heretics are looking dominant and to be fair fanatic down
numbers that means nothing we've seen it a million times is this a pause into a
fanatic 4-4 that's the part that's strange for me to see and then see it
No, yeah, I think it's what that's not in this one. She's six and oh still flying
He wants that but he wants to go back to his home city. Is he from London? He is right the bigger danger though
Is just this is for the seabass first time plan the viper. I think cycling of utilities already. It's gonna be so important with that agent
He's a pinnacle piece of a puzzle that is normally perfect Island post London. That's a story
I'm at Seabass holding his ground
Oh my god, come on.
Holy shit.
Heretics where they actually close rounds out, but they have advantages then.
That's a big miss.
Look at them, they're just triple peeking everything together.
Oh god.
Look at them!
is being triple peaked. Do you use the fatal here? You do, right? You absolutely do. They
know he's here. They know he's here. I think they can see him. They saw him. They saw him.
They know like that was the goal. They want to face someone to make a mistake
Try and get them to fight but they can't cross because have an angle. There's an often play with planting right now
Is it's a danger? It's weird. They're waiting for smoke an instant disadvantage. So they are waiting
Just to see if that is not another miss
And now they're gonna clear out crashes as well. They've been on this site for well over a minute
Here we go. They're gonna jump double peak again. They're gonna triple peak again boaster
I've got this.
Ah, no way.
Nah.
Not a chance.
Wow.
Yo, Kayak.
Missed two pretty big shots.
pretty big sitters. Is this the Hyunmin Law? Yeah, it might be the Hyunmin like
stay rifling type situation here.
That man would never miss. Just doesn't stop.
one for FNC, but we have seen the bounce back from worse. You can never lose faith. Yeah.
I mean, you might be looking at this and going, okay, why, why have the cars decided they would
like to compare the statistics of two players that at least going back in stage one, don't have
incredible statistics, but it's chat. We can literally break down that round in that post or
in that, uh, what was it? 3d4 in the favor of fanatic into a 3d3. Like everything was like
They did so much in such little time, and it was all so good by Heretic's it helped that kayak miss that shot though
Obviously, but still at worst they would have gotten the bomb down and they would have been in a 2v3
But they would have rushed
Crashies and it would have been a 2v2 because they're gonna rush him anyway
From Heretic's obviously, they coached said it themselves another couple of Brits. I wish we had comms for that round
I really do that would have been the ultimate round to have comms
I'm sure they're hoping that this pause won't have the impact of Todd Anderson thinking of the prime
Zero zero half time two kills four deaths, do you remember those two kills with the sheriff? I do remember them
We haven't seen them every round we've seen
And in the previous map we saw fanatic
I'm trying to put it right so right back in the end with a speedy close to both house where the fuck is Ben White
Injured it's a star
Timbers injured Ben White's injured. What do we even do? Oh?
My shot is at least connected
But it's not gonna be enough damage to warrant a kill Benji will still be standing
the
child of the others in a go
to nice to win third map close
and then it's just going to be a
protection of one to two of
the still one of the two more
to play in the next
aware
I got you man, thank you
Paratix extending that lead further with okay, I said a couple of volts expended the I don't really know mine too much
No, no, but on the other side of it. I don't think for now. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you
They have a lot of weaknesses this is around if no doubt they will look disgust when it came to that time
Oh, you know Benji is on point today by the way
I think the only miss I've seen from him was the one where he was tower and he missed the guy arcade
With the rifle with a Vandal
Okay a control early free a control fanatic has full C control
Dominance at the beginning to wait. Oh, it's through C but these guys rushing a
It's that same pace the heretics look to hit them with
Good all three a bombsite
Forcing does this flank have impact chat?
They also have killjoy alts so they have to go to boaster so boaster has to take his time here
You've just seen put through there for Benji
Soon as the walls tripped flash goes up and whoever saw it inside. Oh god. Oh my god. Oh
OH MY GOD THAT WAS FUCKING BEAUTIFUL
Like, yes, Fnatic's plan was obvious
because of how much noise they made stairs
and Killjoy all can only go to one spot
But when something on the attack side as an attack caller when something works that well that you counter with
That's feels so good
adapted that on the fly because of the way they place the wall on the post
flight you gotta go like oh they're just gonna lock themselves in and then it
was the realization of oh they're gonna put the lock down in we need to get
aggressive and then just the utility that they used on the fly like if you
said they saved you till but it wasn't just what was saved by Benji that's
fucked up this right here it's a made it's a crime same time I mean I do
think initially the plan there was to turtle and then someone made the call
Did they show that they were ready the second it went down three pieces of utility at you you're dead
Yeah, the question is can anybody else trade you out the answer was absolutely not not before there's three bodies on the floor
and none of them were from heretics
An initial fight from Woot here. He's left a little on his own, but boo
TP's out finally fight again. They're finally fight again. It's working. It's working. They've done it
And it looks to be working! Benjy's home!
He's thrown a wrench into the plans of Fnatic.
And he could be burying them beneath another feat of dirt.
It is a potential 8-0.
And the man who can stop that dominant score from coming through is Alphier.
Benjy has only died once so far.
He's been impeccable, nigh on perfect,
battling for that opportunity to make it to Masters London the bait on the wall
he doesn't know maybe if the players already crossed but feels like he would
have had the timing still a little bit wary of that wraparound and his
reposition gives him a good spot Alfie though knows that he's gonna have to
drop back down maybe no no he's gone so far but he will land the shot in the end
nice try Benji. For Benji and a first round for Fnatic. Oh yeah well that felt
like the last hand on the ledge for fanatic you got a little nervous I feel
like too much you have too much adrenaline going through his veins too
much adrenaline
Hart was beating fast
and then God he does pulls himself right back up and his team right back
into things a 7-1 deficit it's not pretty but this could have been a
Continuation of the dominance that we've seen in the last seven now round nine a buy-up for both teams
But most they're broke by the way, it's not a cap. No money if they lose this. This is the dagger right here
Viper told you I hear that set up that's possible set up and I can have
Oh, you know, I just get to go through all of it just getting in
Neon just goes through all of it. What a terrible game
What an embarrassment of a video game, but this guy still exists girl, whatever
I mean Kayak stunned and didn't insta-slide after his stun.
That pause he took fucked him.
Do you guys see these triple peeks though?
I'm not blazing just a glaze. This is very good. So
Unfortunately the credits start to come calling again. They need to make sure they have a buy for the next round
So he needs to keep the gun
And that's that's it right there. That's a dagger. There's no recovery from fanatic now. This is time to minimum so many of those fights
Uh
That's not true. They have they have good ults
The look that we needed to see from this squad both are getting a moment to chat with the boys and
again steady that ship but the deficit that they were already facing puts them
in a position where Fnatic they don't just need to win around here or there
they need and Ryan has 2k on Fnatic and so far he has been out of reach and even
after they found that one you hope that that would be it that's the second
pause right Fnatic this half worth very worth the terrifying thing as well is
is just look at the manner in which heretics are playing.
Chat, what do we think?
Defaults or set play here?
Set play would be an example like fight for A early,
like full commit mount, push C, or a full B main trap.
You guys think set play they do?
I actually think they default still.
Because of the ults they have, I think they default.
I think they real reactively use their ults
based off what happens.
So now we're gonna destroy the other side of the map and see if you have the ability to hold on and the answer was no
The sheer pace they're being hit at it's just so difficult even with the author or see or a no
That was the way that yeah, but dude. Yeah, maybe maybe if they have viper's play see and just alts for delay
If they hit see
I mean heretics has no choice but to sit back and wait for any kind of aggro
After a timeout you have to
You have two choices, you sit back and wait for 30 seconds or you instantly rush something.
But that's way more gambling obviously.
They're faking A pressure while walking B. No, no way this guy actually goes to door.
Yeah, it's a fake A pressure.
Oh my god, they have them nervous.
Yeah.
I mean, killjoy, what are you gonna do? Wait, do they have killjoy or not? They don't, they have fatal.
That's a big kill, and you say a lot for perfect play.
These guys need to not go hits here, they can't go see.
If this bomb goes down, they just need to lose.
Unless Rienz does some weird shit.
If you're fanatic, you use it all. If you're fanatic, you use it all.
And secure the round. Yes, you do. You do. You just do.
Why do I feel like a weird Rienz round coming?
They're mad.
well played and they only used two ults for that two or three two three two
right three they they have them at all I know they used fade I know these neon
sure that at no point they have a chance and I think only as well okay but most
importantly it was a clean round how do they just say what I say not the
exact same thing but like have you I've never used most importantly
How they afford those early rotations getting a main early and it's certainly not a new strategy by any strategy the imagination
The heretics saw it in the last round. They saw that space shit is weird, bro happened earlier, too
Okay, CD fault and to be pressure just beating out util
Taking space being annoying vices holding a
Benji can maybe catch Kayak looking for an early flank for not doing much in terms of
Not falling for any of them. I'm really being too proactive viper and killjoy are holding down C
These two are holding down a it feels like heretics at this point. They pop B. I mean these there's
Keep making noise around each side of the map, but for that it could read but for not a bill
They're for sure gonna come back a first the horn paranoia snake bite
They haven't fallen for the tricks
It leaves them with a lot to play with that parry you're late way too early slow than once again
Way too early. What are we doing?
Challenging this definitely seems like a bit of a gamble to play still on the other side of the map
Reans will win that initial flight. They now have to send it though. They're nervous. They're just nervous
Yes to make the call for his teammates right am I tripping they look this just looks bad
seconds left but if they split back towards B there will still be somebody waiting
that wall though it's gotten through the power away didn't land at the start on top of what can you do
it's a big kill boaster that is a huge kill if you keep control of door
oh my god they're pushing us well to find one
oh awesome good job as well great job
see this is what I mean by proactivity though heretics are
instantly recognizing what the opponent is doing taking space
retaking space elsewhere this is how fast you have to be
Up in heaven they look to try to punish that aggressive earlier, but I already have simply fallen out
They've given up that I'm coming back the timer is ticking on the way
Heretics under pressure reveal a post that's a freebie alpha's deleted. I'm coming
I'm here even a show stopper for good measure
Heretics will not let this round slip and the gap extends a guarantee of nine at the half
with one round left to play for
That was an insane eye. Fair. Whoever called that out, I didn't say anything, but that was a very good eye.
Like the perfect spot for it.
What was Buster doing? He was trying to big flank because they already saw. He got the kill door, so he knew they would be staring at doors.
at door. He was low, so he's like, I'm gonna make a click, but then he didn't think about
the Vizel wall. He just forgot. And then when the Vizel wall hit, he's like, fuck, now
they know I'm here. I'm getting away a free kill. I don't even think he knew it was there.
I think he just hit it. And he's like, oh fuck. But the kayak boaster set up
That a last round it looked like they were hella like
Digity oh man. Oh, oh man flash used to early stung use they're not even committing out
Fighting that early is to get that control that the great song
I'm getting on rubble and they couldn't do it now left with a massive gap of information
Even in a 3d3 the numbers even but look how big the map is
Now they realize where the hits come from.
You're dying, man! You're dying!
Oh, okay, okay.
Go on the HP! A little bit of decay in the mix, but...
Rien's had a yell on the Rien.
Yeah, just the elevated nano, but like, that's been around for a long, long time.
I'm surprised he gets caught that much by it.
Oh my god, look at the HP's chat.
Look at the HP's, or for both of them. It's a weird round.
Rien's. 7 HP, one belated him.
half leaving crash me bit me it's okay and desperately trying to at least put a
car on to the board but it seems like right now the curse of re-ins you're
dying you're dying you're dying
fairytics it's starting to feel like he has a great start for sure
yeah at this stage I don't know what's going on with this guy well fadatic two
rounds on the board a team that's known for some historic comebacks and now they
Need one let's see how the vibes are down in the studio with this fish guy. Yeah, this guy's a shark today
Give me that hunger we're gonna be sending it over. Hello. All right. It's not just a fan. I found it is the fanatic fan
Oh, is this the guy that does the champ? He is right. Oh, I was trying to make it. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah, it is
O, O, I, E, guy.
We used to, you know, remember champs, 1-11.
So, we can do everything. I believe in the boss. They always got it.
Okay, so what do you think they got to do to actually close this one out?
Because, I mean, they have the buffer, right? They want that first map.
Just say go to map 3. They need to go to map 3.
So, what are you expecting here?
Hmm, honestly, whatever the boss says, I know it works out.
I know Milan is all stuck in there, and Desmond's talking to them.
They will figure it out.
I love how you have, like, such faith in Fnatic,
because historically we know how great they are at keeping the hot martyrs going.
going so how was yours during today I mean I mean I've watching I've been
watching them forever and it's like W dick writer he just like me with paper X
I get it man I feel you I said I would have given up by now to be tell you the
complete truth I'm looking at not very brother do you have one no no no side of
Jersey all right well okay so we're gonna decide Jersey please thank you so
much I'm gonna let you sit down and cast us we're gonna head back over to you
guys
Where's the cause apparently he's ill he's not feeling well so he's not available
I'm still you know
Let's close this out. Let's go Matt three. I'm down. I'm actually happy from that three
I know all the fanatic fans here are happy to see how things are going are they still feeling not three is always way more fun guys
Let's be real like come on
We want to earn it we don't want to just win to zero that's cringe
It's a couple of you have to find me out.
Three, three, three, four.
Oh, shit.
Oh.
Both coming back.
Now, Tom, I think it's safe to say that a pistol round might help Fnatic's current position, but, uh...
The vibes are off, here we go.
It's 10-2! Of course the vibes are off, brother!
Yeah, great shout. Thank you.
You said that maybe like 30 seconds ago that I wouldn't put the lesson in
It's 10-2 they just got wiped on pistol. What do you think is happening?
Especially when we see in the replay how Reigns is not dead because he was full-blinded walking into the crosshairs of like multiple players
Yeah, these guys can't buy a fucking pistol. I think it kind of shows how
I'm gonna knife him, I'm gonna knife him, I'm gonna knife him, wait, don't shoot him, don't kill the world man!
That's how you get Reigns, that's how you get
I don't know why I have so much energy so
I'm flawless. I'm sure he's gonna be 11. I think he'll come
Yeah, the 11 to score line might help
A beautiful a fight from heretics there helps they hit all their shots, but
That's seriously though, what the fuck is there to smile about?
That was 2-11.
Oh, they're on game.
Oh, nice shot.
to put all the credits into it lose this one the game is gone although i think
yeah that's a nasty uh there i'm oh on a shot and then boosted up bro he's just fighting i know
that's what austin just said a dangerous start we're just fighting already managed to bring it back
100 percent i put money on that's what he just said the boy seems to do quite a lot of damage
is running out of bullets but he'll get there in the end it's a couple of players lost
and normally you talk about that it's not bad eco round but that wasn't an eco round no no that
was a four spy also benji had one of the whiffs of the century so yeah ain't gonna lie bro i know
heretics are about to lose this sense and it's gonna be so heartbreaking rewatching that fracture
back it is a hard gun to use let's put it out hey don't don't jinx smith like the bulldog it just
feels wrong and I'm sure Benji agrees me after that round this definitely looks
like a comeback that might even be too big of an ask for defense has been terrible
today Harry takes will win you think so I'm happy about this you know what I
love about fanatic they know this is going to matter let's not waste any
time we got to get backstage and talk about this the last time they play this and now they are
getting decimated a complete turn around from the previous i'm going see i'm going see i'm going
see okay stay here an attempted rap the timing is all they could really hope for and they have
none of it the luck is all but dissipated a third back this time gifted really zeki thank you
Thank you for the 10 gift and then sorry.
Thank you so much.
Thanks very much, thanks.
Thanks very much.
Yo, guys, I actually don't know why I have so much energy.
I think it's the two, this thing.
This thing's not gonna be fucked up right now.
GG's, Heretics.
I don't believe 13 to two on Lotus from Heretics.
I don't think I've ever seen him out.
There could be more of a confidence builder
for this squad that they have just decimated
Fnatic on their home turf.
Yeah, pistol rounds, not the only thing
that's looking good for Team Heretics,
They dominant that went under the belt on the opponent. Yeah, I'm gonna watch our snow game
We were back all of you guys you want to run hella ads, but before that let's go all the way down to this stage
and talk to boo
We're all the way down here on the stage with boo. I mean that was a great map
It was your opponent's map big you saved yourself from elimination one more map left. How are you keeping a tight ship going forward?
I mean main thing is probably not funny
you
you
you
you
you
with a dog count and I still had time to shut it down.
Now you see a mouse screaming my name,
seems like I squeezed my name.
They never fit that frame, only friends are when it came.
20 days I've been on a road chasing,
no legend ever said they waste my face.
Now.
I saw my mama, I may get a baby,
but I'm gonna stay, see I stay in my head.
Keep my feet on the pavement and don't you ever mistake it.
You guys were dominant on Lotus, was there anything or anyone you want to talk to?
anyone you want to shout out as being key to closing it out. I think just following the game plan
and following what the preparation is for and just playing our game basically. Yeah, I think we
had a really good mentality this game. We knew exactly how they were going to play. I think the
the game plan was perfect outside. They didn't change much so yeah perfect how it is.
Hopefully more of the same on the next map.
I've come to the bottom of a
conclusion here. They're just
stoic guys that are on the side
of heretics, I feel. It's really
just down to the players that are
bringing that extra level energy.
I just thought that the way that
we saw each individual popping off
the other day with the energies,
a little bit of trash talk coming
out. I thought it was through with
everyone, but that one's reserved
specifically for the players and
teams. We'll bring the coaches in
on the best because you can
actually meet them and talk to them.
I'll call them out for it. Yeah,
I think you should. I think you
I think they've been very nonchalant in the coach confessions, but I don't think actually they're like that
But amazing for them to win out a map and so dominantly as well
I want to say it's gonna be a real confidence booster knowing that this is obviously keeping them in the series and being able to make it to
Masters London. I think it is crazy. That's I promise to you
That there was going to be some insane retakes from the side of fanatic of Lotus
You kind of did and I feel I won't say lied to you, but I feel um betrayed and heartbroken instead
So here's the thing, right?
So I was looking at Seabuff and I was like, man, you're great.
You're going to be great on the live.
That old, the one old that we saw that half.
I was like, no, that is not really for you.
That doesn't really do much for you.
Territix, a lot. It does a lot.
I don't know. I didn't see a lot of comfort.
I think that there were also moments.
You know, we see like players want it more and whatnot.
I do think it has to do with what the coach has said
of actually sticking to the plan.
And I think Benji was also stellar on this map.
Same goes for Reans.
I think that he had a very good second map.
But I think they're right off the bat in this bonus,
where he starts being a little bit sneaky with the judge here.
He finds one, and he instantly goes in the move,
identifying that the post plans that we saw in Fracture
is not something that could be repeated on Lotus
for us to go to the third map.
Did I expect this goal line to look like this?
No, no I didn't.
If anyone expected this goal line,
I would have called them a lie just a moment ago, but.
Yeah, because this is a map that both teams have been pretty dominant on in the past, I'd like to say, and yeah, I think Benji having that player that can allow you to have these lurks, he was able to find so much space, which was allowing them to be in such comfortable positions when it got to that post plant, which is perhaps why Fnatic were struggling with these retakes on Lotus.
Yeah, it was kind of messy to watch.
Well, it's one of those things where we get one map where it feels like Fnatic are able to just have this advantageous situation time and time again for themselves on those retakes, a game plan that works for them, and on the other side of heretics, they're the ones with the game plan that works.
They're the strongest showing. It just feels like it was a lot stronger than even what was to be strong for Fnatic architecture.
I think that Tom and Mitch were doing a great job, like identifying, you know, the thought process that heretics was having there.
I was like, Oh, I'm just
going to take a until a simulator.
Yeah, a simulator until we can't
go away again. And then for
not excited, fighting for it,
and they were like, okay, not
interested anymore. We move on
to the next thing. And but he
was like, Oh, really too late.
Yeah. I'm just upset that we
didn't get to see more cost
marks on the defense. We saw
him pull up the areas on his
last kind of. Yeah, it's only
because he didn't have enough
to buy an order, and I kind of
wanted him to have the
opportunity to redeem himself
considering how he performed
on the order on defense the
other day. So maybe how to
to a copy that they're able to
close out so quickly. There's
still that map through.
that they're able to close out so quickly.
There's still that map three, right?
And there's still all those chances for you guys
to talk about, but before we get onto that map three,
there's still a chance to hear from athletic coaches.
I stand up next and you have seen heretics on it already
without showing your own hand.
What should we expect and can you tease any surprises?
You can expect something new, but I don't know.
They might be watching this for all I care,
so I'm definitely not telling, sorry,
I can't give, we can't give any spoilers,
but expect something new, expect something fresh,
and yeah, expect Fnatic to bounce back, that's it.
Me and the May, you've been on this show
for the past three, four years,
you know exactly that they cannot see it.
Well, at least the play is gone.
Maybe not the code, I don't know, I don't know.
I don't like the cowardness, I don't like that.
I'm not gonna say anything because it might,
yeah, literally, you're gonna say it
and they're going to change their entire plan,
they're gonna change the code and it will change it,
100% team.
They're going to counter-straten in 30 seconds.
That's how these coaches are on the side of heretics.
It's also just how vague it was.
Not just, oh, something new, but I want to know, is it new because we haven't seen you
understand?
Is it new because there's Seabolf on Viper?
Right.
Is it new because no other team is running the comp you're going to do?
What is that element of New York bringing?
Surely he could have narrowed that part of it down for us.
So, yeah, he could have.
And it would have been enough, because what angle are we looking at?
was so innovative with Ascent last year, the last time of course that we saw them play it was back
at Champs, but we saw some Sage, we saw Vice, we saw Chamber, they innovated so much, so really
want to see what they're actually going to be bringing out today. And it's Alpha on device.
Okay, I'm not entirely mad at this. I think I was expecting for this to happen before and way,
way, way before Ascent, before Ascent to see Alpha going on device. Yeah, I think in terms of Nu,
I want to see what that new is right because for me this composition feels very vanilla when we think of the scent and
The only kind of change that we would have there from that vanilla composition would be to kill giant set of the fights
Right, so that's what we can look at is being perhaps me here
I'm intrigued to see kayak on the jet as well
This is an agent that we've seen players pick up a bit more coming into the playoffs
Well, I am so happy that Milan didn't give it away because heritage would have counted this soul
would have been night and day.
But as we're before jumping into
this, everybody remember what's
on the line, surviving here in
the lower bracket a chance to go
to London for the side of T
heretics yesterday was an
absolute nonsense. What they
played on a set. They bounce
back on the defense after being
not being able to deal with the
double Sentinel from the other
side would had an amazing day
same for the Benji that we're
seeing today. Yeah for sure. I
against that double-cetimal this time around, but even still, they need to be able to do that here.
And for Fnatic, similar story, they have the opportunity to play on home soil at Masters London,
just one step away on this last map.
Well, that's the thing, we're getting caught up on the fact that the Fnatic urges were talking about something new,
but they were also talking about the fact it was going to be a Fnatic dub for them,
and I do wonder, is that Agent Select going to be it?
Is this comp going to have that success, or are we going to be saying goodbye to them?
Well, is it just how hard Heretics can fight that question, Tom?
I don't like the way we're playing right now.
Well, it seems Neon is dead. Long lives, Kale.
What do you make of these comps we're seeing right now?
Dreamer taking the prime move.
I'm not gonna lie, when he was talking about secrets, as if he was about to blow our minds.
After yesterday watching MV, I thought maybe I was going to get something spicy, like the Raina Clove, but no.
It's fairly...
Lights, thank you Mr. One as well, thank you.
But I do think different IDs in terms of how it's gonna be playing obviously back to that after poop initiator
I think Kale on this map still has so much power
I can tell I can tell after that it's like bro. It's almost really slow all of that utility from being able to be thrown in
They're kicking off on that attack side
I want to see how fanatic are gonna set the pace and how that vice
Do you fuck with the solo you're a pop? Yeah, I mean we had double sensor and we started defense
So yeah, catch up nice opening from Alphia. I mean listen catch up can still have a bit of a kick to it, too
Just ask so Marcus. Yeah, it was all about it. Let's see if this flavor is what fanatic me did re-ends
He's thinking about going forward Benji's alongside him, but they'll go back off
At least for the time being it's a good thing. Oh my goodness
Here it comes this split from here it comes from heretics. Well, fine
Here it is guys, the collapse begins the third map monsters, when it matters most monsters.
Oh, huge.
Wow.
Yep.
Come on.
Alpha years, big round, big starcrack.
Look at him go bro.
Imagine they get eco'd, I'd shit myself.
You're gonna watch the next match choose zero percent chance
All these rounds often a formality is they should be
With the defenders posing next to no real threat, of course
That's never really the thing you should be saying when there's a neon with a shotgun
But
They've woken up we've got some momentum here. It's not gonna be easy. Now can't fanatic bonus heretics
I'm G you take three and you're so much better than them as a player. You're probably gonna win
You see David Chatham I did to get what he needs to out of this round. Why is he running that far away with the bookie?
Guessing he's going all the way around to try and just catch them on the exit to be
He's trying to save brother. He's trying to not die
Wanted them to maybe get the full surely security after clearing some of those positions
I'll just got him because Alfie is now pushing in his direction
And we'll close him out for the ins on flawless a magnificent one away from by Zoltan
This bonus is so possible
bringing that steel garden and that is one of the major benefits for the attack side on this map is you are able to fight for those
of the homes and you are able to have a fair advantage in winning.
You saying this is so far out for so much so,
and I thought you were gonna say that he has as many closest
to previous map.
No, I'm not making this classic.
I'm not making this classic.
I'm not making this classic.
Oh, right.
That's real beef being sidelined now.
You can say whatever you want, all those things we have to bleed,
but you insult that classic, that's crazy.
Coming for the bottom line.
I respect it.
Heretics need eight rounds in my opinion, because this K.A. was going to be so annoying on Default SUD.
Oh, it shows. Nice fucking kill, bro.
Do they know there's, okay, they know Jett's here and they should know Cypher's here.
Are they gonna continue going B? Knowing two people are here? Alright.
Of course.
Benji Fischi.
All alone now, what not?
It's Benji, Benji!
He will find the first of their slow to look for trades.
He's given a chance to catch his breath,
ready himself, steal himself for the battle to come!
Oh, wow, man, he got a second kill.
Crashies, this is what you've been...
Ah, it's hard, it's hard, it's hard.
Crashies!
Alone, he sparks one, lands the hedge on HP very low for no reason.
Nice try.
He isolated the fight well.
At the end, heretics find their round.
I feel like it's a little bit unlucky not to come out with something a little bit more there boo so desperately low and
Have a good time
We need a score about what you want to see from not only Benji Fiji, but also
When he is just playing this jet it feels like just an absolute comfort
And as he said I already managing to beat what was a bonus
But also had an ultimate invested even still fanatic is gonna be able to comfortably buy of course
We know that Marius is more than happy to pick up a judge instead of having one of those rifles
My captain's gonna bring me on if heretics are gonna have another stellar side as they did
And they play BBL
They can't afford to lose this round. I mean unless I'm mistaken heretics have as many kills as alpha. Yeah, it's elimination
It's a flash in the pan or at least they can be chalked up to that and the by round heretics
Can they get to in a row last last round obviously a lot of map control pretty early on that attacking side
Look at how far back heretics are playing zero a main control. They have a camera and be main
They are literally just waiting for the exec start start of the round to finish
Very slow to follow up and look at that damage on the spot
Oh my god, Regan's just playing it perfect
Regan's just playing it, look at him
No, he's such a rat
No, not flying under the radar
But too low to the ground
2 to 1
Well, we're about to see things equalized
Yeah, that almost feels like the curse of just not punishing
Because Mars just just allowing him to live that little bit extra longer and he's able to get back out reutilize
What is the value of those neon abilities that slide back into position? I?
Wonder what happened on short like either the guy flash blinded the whole team or
Actually or everyone's trolling. I think the flash must have blinded everyone
Oh, he's talking about the second flash once they were like entering a
Let's see that short fight is a real headscratcher and that is where they lost the round. So I think that's somewhere that
will certainly
See them try to fix whatever happened in my
Are you fucked that's what he did
But I was just like, I don't know how that he's not ended up dying there, but yeah
Also crying for a penalty. Yes cry more cry more two guns saved as well cry as much as possible
This round the rest on classic good good good good has invested at least a little bit
Into some light shields just to make sure that if they do drop a gun or maybe he can get an orbital to son of pen
Okay, well fuck
It's time the wall is placed a little bit shallow so evidently that was a mistake
I'm not sure we need to see a second wall to figure that one out. Oh boy. It's good to know. It's good to know. He's
made the adaptation. He knows. He knows. He just knows. Oh, he had a battle. Three players pushed up, saw the wall,
backed out, no longer wanted that smoke. It's a good thing, too. They got the results. They're a pain.
They're welcome. The pistols in. Got two rifles still in play for Fnatic. A chance for damage,
But the main thing about this round will be exactly that if it's not victory take a look at the credits for heretics
They are getting a little bit out of control. They are stacked pretty high. This is the point where if you can find a few kills great
You think about it on the other side look at the credits for fanatic
They're decent on the top half of the board, but two players could use a weapon
They've got two weapons
I mean they're trying to react to what Alpha said Alpha said they're playing for B main so they went up mid and
And somehow there's three guys staring at market.
I think they're about to do a B-pop with an updraft dash over.
K and flash paranoia.
An updraft dash into the B site.
What's crazy is that's literally what heretics are playing for.
They're literally just wading in the bomb sites. They are not taking any, only Neon is taking any kind of
risk. Everyone else is sitting in bomb sites waiting.
West-hand Loki looks like the team to score a stop, bro.
Like...
Getting stressed out about this game, though.
Do they even want to win? I don't know.
I do wonder we saw earlier the stat captain Cal had for us that fanatic
Although historically they never planted or their average was never to plant within the minute mark now
It's dropped down with about 54 seconds. I think it's dropped by 10 seconds
They're their average before and if fanatic the team that we know as the slowest team in the world
The guys that see 10 seconds left and they know we should leave spawn. I suppose we're not playing balls today
Or what he opened the pace? I think it does show this big man from the meta to be faster
Yeah, I don't know.
Fnatic adapting to that challenge is being...
Fun to see. Getting a bit more flair out of them, a bit less default.
No corners today.
Like, no noise made, it seems.
Koshmarus is very willing to fill in that space, but...
Fnatic thinking about the re-clear in mid with utility.
That's perfect.
The flash is good, but there's nobody for reality.
No way. No. No!
That's nice.
Yo!
Suck on this.
I feel bad for people who don't even care, that are just looking for me to talk about fanatic and heretics.
But I don't think you guys understand how big a deal this arsehole game is
Is it big of a problem?
Huh?
He's
Wait, what?
The QA
How is it still 4-2? What is this sleepy ass game right now?
Is it am I trippin?
Or does it feel like the path should be over right now?
about curses you'll get blocked as well but it is interesting here and I think
heretics did a great job by setting this expectation of how it's still for the
two and a single player to the b-site to play turtle with the camera for early I
mean I say early information I mean I'm talking about here in man is it's
hardly early but some information ahead of the first peak this is insane
waiting on the site fanaticer by WQX they're the prime of the space you're
Not fighting for they find it the hard way that this round
They were fighting for it didn't last very long this time the cam is gone within the first to the envy game
No, I sort of got the last two maps did not feel like this
looking to be picked up
Boaster
Just trying to sell a bit of a ruse on the other side of the map. Oh here comes the be pop
Can't hesitate to say the importance draft dash. Benji is legit begging for it
But the thing is this KO flash could change everything
is going to start that execution.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, cancel default.
Just sit there.
Chill, chill, chill.
You know where four people are.
You go CT, go market to CT to A. You could leave players if you don't
need them.
All five players are here.
Oh my gosh, mid-round, mid-round market.
is being seen now and fanatic are the ones boxed in yeah they are boxed by the defensive side
with no retreat 30 seconds left but seemingly no will to press forward barely any utility reveal
back online now and nade from seabrocks but that's about the best what a flash for on the other side
paranoia they have to go ct right shot they have to go ct they can't fight three guys here you can't
Do it
Fair enough, I will sacrifice fanatic for our soul right now. We have to score tell me we scored
Unless you thought he'd completely given up all control and just left, which, why would he do that?
Then that's just Alphia walking to his doom.
And then the rest of the players on heretics know there's-
For Karat, thank you everyone, and gaining baby through the prime.
Because they can't have pushed anywhere else. They made that so easy for team heretics.
Saka got a yellow.
We are really starting to get towards Panic State.
Is he yelling at them to take the breath?
Okay, we give them the kickoff curse.
Every year we go kickoff, maybe you don't make it.
But two in a row, they're not making an international win.
David Raya is saving your team from embarrassing themselves.
Isn't that every game?
He has at least one pivotal save.
The assistant delivered, sieve off down and out.
Kayak could be in the same boat.
The blades refreshed, but it's Kaushmaris.
Quicker on the trigger, is the finger gun.
All around me are familiar faces.
One out, two in, six to zero, with an ace from Dutch Marys.
Funny kind of funny, funny kind of sad.
Shut them down, as if it wasn't bad enough.
You come in as a man who only joined midway through this stage.
At the time it almost seemed like panic stations.
First mode, first mode, first mode.
How many minutes shot how many minutes they took a gamble week one it looked rough and now he's
acing fanatic to give them a six to lead in a map that would eliminate a number one please lord please
Fuck fuck fuck
It looks very much alive
Guys even with the nerves coming
We'll see the kind of impact that it has in all seriousness. That's a nightmare
If I decided to come in today not arming themselves with it
They will live to regret at this soccer off from on weight. Yeah
At least there's some but you know you have vice in there as well
At least he can click the ball in the fucking box
seal to it maybe trying to bring us back to the old days when fanatics still sat on a throne when
they were the undisputed the e-mea team that has changed heretics held up mantle more recently
than fanatic did and now a chance to stop them out they've done it on big stages
here we go until now the time see oh nice trade falls with
It's a triple.
Don't lose this round.
Do not lose this round.
It's yes sticking out
It needs to be the start of something because the last couple of rounds before that they were very dominant indeed
Yeah, this is it. We've seen this a few times where like one round is found a couple of good kills couple oldies
Whatever it is
There we go right back to the place for heretics
I gotta win 2 in a row man, Fnatic have to win this next round and look at the fucking
ults on heretics.
Honestly, the silver one is the hardest one to deal with.
Alpha's 1-0.
No one breaking that though?
Oh my god.
Heretics is finally playing for mid chat
Okay, I don't know what that is
My that is pot flashes himself happy around winning a bit of a confidence
They think it's B though, I think. 2-2 is such a bad setup for heretics.
Fnatic's best chance is right now.
YO!
Oh my god, amazing trades.
Oh?
We scored? No, we did it!
And by his more time, he ends up falling.
Crashy's had the angle.
And now, gosh, Shirley, it's already done.
He tries to make something of it.
But in the end, it's another round for Fanatic.
Six to four, the gap down to two.
And there's a reason we never got Fanatic out.
Yeah, and then with this, that's six rounds in a row.
I was dying to get a little bit nervous,
but you are beginning to see a couple of those confidence
Let's go!
Let's fucking go baby!
It's something that can still be afforded by
That's big. That's big. Can we score another though for gold difference or am I being too greedy here in case we tie?
Could be a little lower
So this is gonna actually play a big pie and whether or not this could end up as an 8-4 or
If it ends 6-6 which considering that six round streak in the middle
I think for that it was so help me God if we choke this
It is somehow West Ham equalized last minute up against we're gonna we are gonna have a problem
One round that swings it is so whether they're back in or shut out
Don't even if there's an equal if there's an equalizer chat offside. Don't say offside
Bolts across somehow. They still have a foot in the door
six to four
Two rounds left to play we you and I will have problems
Don't even show up for America's finding some momentum
Because I'm just gonna ban people for fun
Doesn't go too well for the team on the other side
But heretics they've been consistent and most importantly Kashmaris that all in the early round has been a nightmare for these attackers
Holy fuck we actually scored even with the holy shit. Did you guys see my captain though?
They're having to be you see my captain. He brought he let that whole play by the way. Let's not
Let's not forget what Otagard did that that play used to clear over towards a so a lot of the time
It's just been something one one, but body check his position
Again though
Diligent stuff from Fnatic. I'm not gonna try. I'm not gonna look at you. I'm not gonna look at you
I have to same
Metrics they've been throwing out throughout the round
Clearing all of these close angles trying to remove the risks of this double-jeweless
Holy shit in still though
This time they've been given nothing
Heretics aren't following you. Kimmy. I need you to like clock in okay, because these guys are
Trying it is very annoying
with the rest of the team. My heart's actually racing, bro. We have to win that game. I will
sacrifice Fanatic, it is what it is. Happens. Happens to the best of us.
We thought we'd left it in the past, but of course not. Old cops bring back old ways.
Cush mass. Up close. All the real owners of the field caught by Kayak. They double now.
Oh my god. Woochee. His move to that answer back, but his blade's taken away. That's a
That's unlucky, that's unlucky, that's not his fault, that's not lucky for him.
Rev said no goal, yeah, eat a dick, bro, eat a dick.
They found me, I'm on the balcony, play off me, play off me, just chill, just chill.
and swings back out to try and find this teammate just wanted to give them a little bit more space and advantage with the smoke
chill chill chill don't pick duping
I'm first contact
it makes this incredible one quick
got him?
they look to group up and boast they've done well
let's fucking go boys
let's fucking go
that smoke was perfect
to make things so uncomfortable for heretics
right back up to five they are
as said
never count them out
come on then
you put all your eggs in one basket
Come on then it just hurts so much more. This is actually an insane recovery for Fanatic by the way
The weaknesses on the other side made up for with the advantages of this composition a judge in play for gosh, Morrison
Well, he's been good with the up
He has been great with the judge as well. This is big. This is big. It's a big recovery
Now, Fnatic just need pistol. Next half.
Look at these freaks, bro. Red card. Goal.
Half my team has already been sent off.
According to chat.
The legit freaks, bro.
Kayak?
Oh no, this is what Elia did.
This is what Elia did to Hunman.
Oh, Kayak's a little smarter.
No one smarter than Hunman.
Don't kid yourself.
Oh my god, A, a B fake.
Oh my god, who wins these fights, chat.
Oh, look!
Oh my god, look at how far back in the site these guys are.
Yeah!
What?!
Yeah!
Dude!
That's insane.
I can't lie.
What a round.
That's insane. I can't lie. What a round. That could have still gone fanatics way.
I can't believe he didn't stay committed to lane by the way. He doubled. He just swung
in stairs. His teammate was the one holding stairs and he just swung it.
Kurva!
Fanatic need this pistol by the way or it's wraps.
Yo, this coffee did something crazy to me. I don't remember the last time I felt like this.
Holy shit, I feel alive man.
I think it's the arsenal goal as well
Our tennis score
wait so low key chat raya saved us I need to see the highlights six minutes for
what no no not rigged it's rigged six minutes
No, that's stupid, bro.
They always do this to us.
Why always me?
Why always me?
Y'all know that reference or no?
Who's a real ball knowledger?
Who's a ball knowler?
Knowledge, I just said.
Hey, we got some ballers in here.
We got some ballers in here.
And welcome back folks, the time we're ticking, one last time, our final half time of this
match, not of the day.
There's more matches coming up later, but let's not divert focus.
This is the real meat and potatoes, team heretics and fanatic, a story.
Bowen 90 plus four.
The chance for fanatic to carry on.
Brother, you just told me, you just told me it was plus six, 30 seconds ago.
How are we at plus four? I wish! I wish you were at plus four!
I'm begging for plus four!
Big pistol later chat, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up.
Oh my god, they're flooding.
Oh my god, it's a stalemate.
This is where heretics does that over-aggressive proactivity
They're not doing it they would normally push door here. They're just sitting under belt shot
This is the first time I haven't seen heretics do anything proactive in the posts
I'm pissed off
Oh my god season defining round
to be wall aim fight
Cretaceous Alpha
and the ghost they find damage
Alpha left alone now time taking
Ringer Ringer Rosie
and looking for Alpha always wins
His sound is much needed
by Fanatic and secured
by Alpha
It's crazy, we've talked about the valley
of the pistol rounds but
to be honest in this series it almost seems like
that is a bunch of the case
I was asked to fracture
Kimmy, why are you typing?
Timmy!
No, no pun, okay.
Thank you. Thank you normal chowders.
Holy shit, Alpha Air just saved Fanatic season.
This is a Fanatic win now.
Phenatic 100% wins this game
Wait, is it over yet? Is the arsenal game over yet?
Okay, cuz I can't anti-jinks that
Two more minutes
300 credits for it's anyone's game classic for two minutes. He's given the weapon over to koshmaris
No surprise
Angie baiting the cross on mid wants them to start looking back in the other direction pull attention away from
Well, the spot on the map with actually no stop actually almost corner first man to hold the cross
Yeah, I don't know I don't want to do this anymore
towards the end, the last map, the need to cut them off, but so many have made it through
already and we are just waiting for Koshbara to get the opportunity to land and shot with
the outlaw of the paranoia, with the lane and it cost him some time, but now heretics
are on the side of the play.
No, you guys are fucking insane, bro.
You guys are actually insane.
This is much scarier when you have to retake into those places.
No, Kimmy hasn't said anything yet.
Kimmy hasn't said anything yet.
I only trust my mods.
It definitely seems like Crash is a little bit too aware, but then he gets punished.
That's where the ammo is going to be noted.
A first kill up.
Wait, Kimmy, are you serious?
And now the rest of the weapons shouldn't be anywhere near his problem.
Magic, Voo will fall out there with four.
Ensure it's a little bit of additional damage.
But they're not gonna deal with that well.
No way they've bottled it.
No fucking way.
This map we've certainly seen in the last two as well
Something to play with it most but we've seen it for years
When a big moment for him to step up as well
We certainly didn't see it
Throughout the entirety of last map there were a lose a round or two
We said that 1v1 was nice to double with the sheriff and he finished on five pills
Like guaranteed goal or var?
Bro no actual way this is happening right now.
They fucking choked again?
In the 94th minute?
has been called the undoing of neon in the past the thorns
I need for a fair amount of damage and the wall potentially leaving that
player isolated so it's no surprise that when knowing what comp will be run by
heretics why they wanted that vice this is definitely where you expect the most
damage to be done I also think the KO that defensive side knife could be a
real irritation but of course now with how long it's all or no go on line to see
what it really is please just tell me going to be bang on as when he denies
the negativity actually no goal or cop 35 seconds heretics taking a leaf out of
an attic spoke to go a little bit quicker that might slow them down though
I
Can I pay attention? I can't pay attention
He did far more than his share of the work
Seems there's still too much left to be this is the biggest decision bars ever made
This is the biggest decision war has ever made they have to take their time
I think that's one of the scarier things the reams has been okay so far, but if he really starts to build into this
It's a goal
What Alphia did in the last round?
Yeah, as you said see what considering any of those at the back of the site
How's it one to know the variables not so much
What the fuck are they doing?
Well, they just started playing while Var was checking.
Girl, I'm actually like, my heart is beating so fast.
I don't even care about this game, who gives a fuck who wins?
Okay.
What are the commentators saying?
What are the commentators saying?
They think it's Fowler, no.
Kimmy, please talk to me. Kimmy, I swear you're not typing at all, and it's just, I'm asking you,
but I've never asked you for anything my whole life. I'm asking you for this. Whenever I ever
ask you for something, never. But Kimmy, I've never, ever asked you for anything.
You're joking. You're joking right now. You're fucking joking, right?
No, go! Yes!
still with heretics
Yeah, I think he's in a lot of trouble now. He's decided to go live. That's a crazy play
And well, he gets the predictable result
whole
Football is saved Ralphie. Yeah, yeah nothing but frustration it seems to end this round
Do you see him while he was peeking out towards yeah, he wiped his forehead with his mouse in hand. Yep
But you can't walk if you use your other hand
That would be fine, hide behind the wall.
If he got killed in that moment, that would be beautiful.
A replay that I'd share with you.
Bro, I don't even know what to do.
My fucking heart was beating so fast.
I actually don't even know what to do with myself right now.
This is so cooked.
I'm sorry for anyone that is only here for fanatic heretics.
I genuinely, I apologize.
Because this is a banger ass game, and I simply cannot look like a knob.
You know what I mean?
not watching the angle fair enough but it's that he misses the shot while
watching exactly where they're gonna be and that means he's dead to right like
those fans through it's like shooting a cardboard like that please explain why the
arsenal game is so hype we are three games away killed for them from winning
the league that we haven't won in 20 years correct if I'm wrong as well was
that the kill that gave re-uns the Hunters fury so I think that even then
ends up killing the next teammate as well because he's got that ultimate
online so the dominoes definitely fell from that moment the defensive side might be the
favorite but what do you mean var is what is varsity video assistant referee right
kind of form essentially like if a ref on the field makes a call because they've had
the stuff they have cameras set up excuse anymore so they can intervene if the call is right
are wrong depending on what they think as well so they used it and the goal goal is
disallowed due to a foul that the referee didn't see sorry I really I'm sorry I got
to lock in tell me the game's fucking over just tell me the game is over just say it
that it's over pretty confident saying shouldn't be doing too much right here right now the
pistols imply across the it's over use their numbers to the we want to risky play by alpha
using the one rifle they have
tucked up in mid air
it's a good idea
but it's not gonna have
well until it's over I can't do anything
to it we can see
I'm stun locked
heretics are all
in a way
ready to burst out
we talked about the numbers advantage
with the pistols they're playing
we're just gonna sit here for two minutes
god
okay well done heretics good shot
keep it up anyways
that is gonna be
it's over
and for heretics
I'm confident in saying
alpha and crashies with it all for deal
with flying flyers up against them
one rifle between them
What they're gonna say is they've got time on their side.
It's only time to now, but big mistakes needed from heretics and honestly, if they lose
this one, we've got to pause right after.
We can.
They haven't been aggressive in their post-bonds.
They've been passive.
They've been sitting back.
Look at them at their cross-back.
Your team is disgusting.
I don't care.
I don't care.
I don't care.
Benji was talking to Trine Trade but because of that, he's given them another angle.
I don't care.
We're disgusting.
And what?
I don't care.
Just give me the fucking League.
Danger in this round. There's got higher and higher
One alpha again alpha save them again versus one him against re-ends. Holy shit
You are the best player ever
I've witnessed it firsthand and I'm seeing it daily
You have saved this organization and this roster like this time and time and time and time again
And you genuinely do not get enough credit.
She saved you in the pistol round.
You are only in this game because of Alpha.
The game should already be over.
You are only here because of Alpha.
Just like Arthel is still here because of VAR.
Varsinal, baby.
And Raya.
to be said frosty thank you to your woman it's gonna be a moment no no no no no no chat
not enough is talked about when it comes to alpha and it's on me as well I don't really
talk about it as well but the sky always saves them who clutched on icebox at yellow to win
the 1v2. Who was that? He's been doing this, bro. He's legit been doing this. This game
should be over like three times over. The game should already be done. And he's 21 now.
Me and Alpha gotta be stopped.
Brother, my son, my son, stop it, get some help, splooch, stay to tier one man, who do
you think is the one between send and energy, energy.
He's still up to sit there and go like I don't really blame the fanatic team to go
Okay, we still need to talk things over because he's had to pull out straight the yes to get us one round behind
When we've I can't believe are still one bro. I when I watch these highlights
I'm gonna freak the fuck out the time I be fanatics like it was I was so right now
Okay, one thing I've realized I will never be live on stream with a chat open while I'm watching a game ever now
I know like I already had my suspicions
Now I know I will never ever be live on stream watching an arsenal game ever
I can't do it, bro. The amount of people that got sent off
The amount of goals that were scored while Var was still conducting its research
The amount of times fucking 40 players got injured I think on Arsenal
I'm done, bro. I can't I can't anymore. We have to have tables reconstructed
Completely changed it because some players they just it's not worth it
I'm not able to much I still I still think like it my my favorite moments when it comes to tech pauses are always
No, you guys don't understand man. I understand like brahma 34 year old man. I should not be reacting this way to a fucking sports team
Full of young children winning and yet I love this fucking team, bro
With my heart and my whole soul
I love this fucking team and I want them to fucking finally win. I watched them
during their like God era
Okay, and that hasn't happened in two decades
So I don't give a fuck if you think arsenal are haram ball or this or that I
Don't care
We need to win this this cup we need to and it has to be this year
And it's like that that first kill
When it's like a ridiculous shot from alphea Benji tries to then just kill him an immediate trade
And that's where the other players they didn't know where he was an immediate kill and from then onwards
It did just feel like it all tumbled, but there's not yes, you got it brother Malibu you are team move French
so
French Canadian brother one of those I don't think you have any say they now just have and what PSG is doing or not doing
in what's going on and
Fnatic is like okay, but we've just won a round off actually nothing had a moment to talk with our coaches
And we are sat here just one round behind. Hey, listen to me carefully
I already said Arsenal has a 30% chance. Is that not fair from an Arsenal fan who are delusional in this and that?
Don't you think that it's fair that I'm giving Arsenal a 30% chance of winning the Champions League final?
That is completely fair
Even when that first time out came on which was you know normal time out from Fnatic
Uh
Heretics to have to sit and stew in it is already bad enough, but at least then they can talk at least
Yeah, you know are you gonna watch America after this EMEA? Yeah, no, so I'm skipping the next EMEA game
I'm gonna chill. Yo, this cannot be good for me health wise
like my
this coffee whatever this I put two shots in here of
whatever like espresso or whatever and
And it has fucked me up. I've never felt like this on stream, by the way
Like this is it's not even that many and yet here I am fucking bouncing off walls
And on top of that all this shit is happening
We have a banger game and arsenal almost just lost tied which is a loss
So I need to chill for a bit
You're gonna get a headache after this I'm gonna crash so badly tonight. I'm just gonna knock out instantly
Making it to monsters long the arsenal one whatever
It's always something that I think every player dreams of is going this was in your hunt for those that aren't familiar
This was the scary game
Because if West Ham the team Arsenal was playing if they lost which they did
They were playing for their spot in the league
So both teams had everything on the line
So even though West Ham's like basically almost last place if you know, there's motivation to win last minute for one of them like I
Think everyone including myself thought that their attendance was set in stone like
They would be there and why I was gonna say how ironic is it?
I also was just big bro. I don't even care like we don't even hate the spurs
You're not worth hating. Let's put it that way. We're big bro, and we got you
You stay in the league one more season. See what happens
Form that they were in the first couple of weeks are really rough then they had convincing victories in a row
But wait, they said it said medical problems dropping down having that bit of recovery
And now they come up against that set the team that I think everybody wants to see play maybe migraine or something
It now feels like they are the ones to potentially
Know they're getting back into it. So maybe make a clean nothing serious
All right, we got a lock in we got a lock in this game deserves us locking it really chose this moment or all through heretics
9 8 up the heretics no doubt writing there. I'll play your hard carrying hard carrying
very early in it. Oh, it's a humongous kill, bro. That's one ult gone, okay, okay, okay,
Oh, he's spotted this timing is good though
Once nothing to do with that blade storm the right blue shell
That doesn't make sense to take that's coming back. Oh god. We mentioned it. It's the wrong read chat
They're going a was they're going in a full committed beam. These guys are going a round
This now becomes a recovery. Are they thinking ain't going mid to be if so fanatic our geniuses
Putting that blade yeah, they're gonna be
40 seconds left, it still feels like the heretics haven't really found a direction, and it's
the ground that they have taken.
No KG here, no KG either, someone's going to die here.
Oh good, well sorry, I didn't think about that.
I think I'm round over.
I don't think Fnatic lose here.
Now the blades sort of still online, but I'll just drop through
Losing players too hard too hard to our heritage of a 12 seconds alpha year to press forward through the numbers
Look at him go
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. He's not missing another tournament. He's dragging this team
kicking and screaming through this game
22 at nine
This was his site, he gets ganked early, for the rest of the round he has 74 HP and guess what?
He has just 74 HP because nobody even got the opportunity to shoot at him.
The Austin, all Austin did was shoot the dart and watch Alpha.
Haha.
You just stared at him.
The chance of heretics running away with this, seemingly fading.
What are we doing?
You just liked me.
Oh there you go.
Exactly what he did.
Bro.
Exactly what he did.
They could get caught here. It's late. They could get caught
Okay, good thorns get thorns get thorns still they could get caught here. It could get weird
You've got to be joking yo
down to the Aries but even still find out where Alpha Aries is and go the other way.
This is getting ridiculous now. Does Heretics have a pause left?
Dan, do you think Alpha notices how much he's owning and he knows Heretics noted it?
Noted it? So they're going to avoid him? So does he swap his U till to A but play B anyway?
behind them lurking waiting to drive them into an early offseason
that's when their most dangerous god damn genius numbers are against them when the stakes are great
and the odds are not in their favor it feels like every time fanatic find their way
and here chill it's not over yet i don't like people are laughing right now like they wouldn't
I don't know anybody is smiling right now. No one should be smiling
You're smiling, huh? Okay, watch this you want to see what wood can do
Done with these smiles
That was a good strat dude.
Honestly, deserve, deserve banger for these two teams.
really say anything else like what is going wrong with your strategy
heretics can change the narrative right now they will always forever choke or they finally
break through and win it's one or the other right here
the clutch which the last three the round we just saw right like the clutch was one
thing and I do think there were mistakes there I do think there's learnings from some of
the opportunities that he's been able to cash in but the last one someone dove on him forgot
Oh, Kayak, your reads have been perfect man.
I'm not gonna lie, he's put himself in the perfect spot for the first skill.
You're joking, right? He died?
Don't L jinx me, how the fuck do you die?
feels to matter about this stage and they are going the other way
they split oh it's just Austin he's playing that they've given up be fully
oh god they're gonna see alpha on radar yep they're gone they're fucking gone
fuck that i agree fuck that let's go to crashies opportunity for crashies but they know he's here
faking they have an idea at least they're faking it oh my god they faked it the
The fucking balls on these guys to be throwing fakes like this.
Oh no, they've cooked it.
Oh, they've got it.
Oh no.
He doesn't want to cross.
I'd be scared too.
Austin's flanking.
No, no, no.
I think Xenatic win.
I actually think Xenatic win.
They're all here.
Oh my god.
Alpha crashes.
Crashes gets to watch Alpha one more time.
A rapper on the back but bootcamp isn't just in time now Crash is the closer he's got them 11 fanatic
They have no shortage of heroes on this team and a red bull clutch puts them within reaching
distance I'm eliminating team heretics
Okay, Jack
objectively
Is that or is that not an overcook you cease you cypher alt?
You see there's two a1b the B rotates late
Is it an overcook to go back a instead of just committing B there?
I would tell you what I think but the thing is I've already heavily criticized heretics
for not over like remember the V call guys on a set isn't this exact map for a long time
we spoke about I can't keep fucking calling them out even with a good year in the previous
ever felt like they had that title back and they lost that throne a long time ago and
this series victory it could be 13 ohs back to back it wouldn't reclaim that title for them
they're definitely a contender they look like they could so you're thinking of the premise
but there was a time when there was no close I think you just keep it simple and go where you
saw the so it's just I think they were afraid the guy CT spawn and so what might be be named
and they would cross fire that drive is still there and it would be harder to kill people at B
than a I really think that may be one step in a time one foot in front of the
other fanatic on the defense 12 within reach in an easy round in front of
questions for Austin it goes that area is once again 30 for us pressure being put
onto the B-side tags already managed to deal with me so again alpha yet waiting
wait nice shot from Ben just awesome again I'll still remember oh it's a big
kill already round over right round over wait 2v2 2v2 they're gonna get guns
while being surrounded to be to they're gonna get guns no paranoia on boaster
baby hoping to the night but won't be able to be as good as expected a chance to
make oh my god another one needs to I feel bad man I'm not gonna lie I feel
that for her it's I do I actually do this sucks for either team are stepping up
to the plate
it's a full house for Fanatic tonight oh my god they are playing with a full deck and
then some 12 to 9 and almost every round it's a clutch a big play even here for Cratchy's
to reveal and to follow up on it it gave them the numbers that were so clearly needed on
their feet again
Go ahead and shoulders
Now they find themselves behind
Three chances for fanatic to keep this run going. No, they won't be in London
With a victory here, but they won't be out for God's sake. That's enough
Set themselves with an opportunity
in position one falls a second as well reans hoping to fight back but counter
utility keep them in their place yeah the rotation already in from the
remaining two looking to try and lock them in on that flag not allow me to play out
but reans boaster has to get one boaster trash what a jump that is a disgusting
jump then he's in a really good spot as well I don't know if he gets cleared I
actually don't think he does even still out for your and crashes have already
I don't think he gets there.
This is dope. This is dope.
Rien's aces.
No, we need OT. Mal, I think you're right. We need OT. We need OT.
I'm down for OT and I know all the fanatic players on our fans in the chat right now are down for OT.
Because I know you don't want to just, you don't want, you want it to be more exciting than this.
Why would you want to win 13-10 when we can build 12-12 and then win 14-12?
You can't even be serious about that.
Nah, let's go with T.
No, let's just...
Come, let's go with T.
Come.
But first they have to survive regulation
There really is something about Turkish buys isn't there?
That's a nice drone that is a nice
Look at this they've left him by himself
Three be they've left him by himself. What a read. This is
It's a B-split GG
economy
It's a gsg view
Guess what
Oh sure the hero the hero
Oh my god, Rien's again
No, Kayak already has the line, it's over, it's actually just over.
Even if Boster dies, it's over.
Unless he peeks from this side. Unless we have to peek from this side, this is weird.
Oh my gosh. No!
No! Oh my god!
Wait, are they not coming? Are they not coming?
He could be stairs. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no way. No one's calling that though
Yeah, look at him
Look at him the young sir. Take it easy guys Jesus Christ. I have us to keep them in with a chance of masters London
Yo, fanatic fans, seriously, let's just go OT.
Let's just go OT, and then we'll just win anyway.
You know what I mean?
Let's just go OT.
A stinger and a bulldog, sova ult, crashy sova ult saves the round, I'm calling it
right now.
that they could play that same game, make those comebacks happen.
Did he die from the blue?
Was that spam through the wall?
It was either on top of the wall or through it.
And I see a bullet hole in there.
Yo, I really think OT is going to be fun, guys.
That's insane.
I actually, I'm not even trolling.
Oh, and what a shot by Benji.
Crash, he's caught at the shoulder peak.
They have another chance at this.
They have another chance at this shot.
And they run into the numbers.
Wait, these other geniuses.
They ran where the opponent was because they
you didn't leave
My voice just cracked it would be the best of the lot
too much to ask an
Unfair question to even think about
Rien's waiting patiently on the other side 15 HP means that well
It was over. Oh, that's all I'm gonna say
somehow without fear yeah all I gotta say about that the doubt holy shit we
have a game well I know so is it reends reends has managed to bring them home
okay fanatic fans now that's enough that's enough now now we just wait okay
the next couple rounds we'll decide who let's get excited let's get excited in
this tournament the regulations disgusting yeah regulations over with a
British heartbeat on both sides this is the story of everyone else down there
today I will kiss you bro might be the most British there we go there we go
this is where alpha shows who the greatest art he's where he separates
himself from the rest right here he's already done it but he's gonna do it
And also this is where Jinx's will be proven to be like not not real
It's a good cam break easy you know, there's cypher so maybe
Okay, oh, it's playing passive a great info so far. We have the main control
What's the call here? We have cat control? We have B main control. We have A main essentially as well
A split, A split shot
Sometimes just punished themselves big flash
This guy going
To be holy shit holy shit
Good job, well he's stuck behind a box. What move is he gonna make tries to slide away?
Oh, it's beautiful. It's beautiful trade. Welcome to trade free kill for alpha
with just what well alpha of all the shots yeah it's over I'm still over what he misses
again 30th kill not coming just yet 29 is a mistake yeah chill chill the round is over
Reans to try and fight versus three Benji what if I didn't I'm not even playing
Kai because he's so locked in he doesn't even realize that somebody's rounding this corner
He might just be about to lose his life to absolutely nothing
Okay, okay, we have a closer. We have a closer chat. We have a closer crash. She's
And another chance to keep them alive
Y'all gotta simmer down then have some faith Jesus Christ Jesus Christ
Yo, I got too much strength I had too much coffee
I mean, even the main controller here is huge.
If this guy drones anything but B main here, Kayak is already...
Take it easy.
She's not dead yet.
Take it easy, we're chillin', we're chillin', we're chillin'.
This line right here should already win for Nadek the round, as far as rotates go.
Yeah, I mean, they're chillin'. This guy needs to leave, you're here, Alpha, go, go, go, go, go.
Boaster's already low, you need to go.
You need to go B or A.
Oh no, this smoke's fucking them, it's making Alpha stay.
Oh no, guys.
He shoots that to try and let them know that they're around that position instead though
The A site has been claimed. Oh my god guys. It's an attic will fall into the retail. It's heretics his biggest enemy
Yeah, because the post plan was broken in mid as you said by Benji
They're sending players out to confirm there's no one there it draws their eye away
It stops the spams that could have come through instead a cautious
Fanatic even now cautious of the flank but seeing nothing yet the timing in mid will be so important
They've seen each other. There it is hot Benji
only scary thing is boasters low but he has paranoia max impact paranoia okay
their paranoia is gone
that was their wincon chat
Riaz is useless
Oh my god, they figured out post-bots.
Just in time.
Ah, you know what, alright, let's test it, let's test it.
next round I'm not gonna say anything okay let's I'm just gonna say a word I'm
not gonna react nothing to swatch do much and let's test it damage in that
round you guys are hella convinced right blaming me so let's test it but
it's just to sell that little piece of false information I could use a break
anyway makes us still waiting on the other side they want a tactical break
they're in middle get cap right fanatic believe they're in middle probably is
because it's you know dirt that he died later though when he went back into that
space but it got them the site for free that's all I need to do even scoreline
this deep into the game I was worried Tom after a 13-2 from heretics on low
we're not gonna know jinx do not say anything I don't care I said it down
at the start of this map we all know it you're built like a Kit Kat it happens
it one man alpha great one which alpha click the first one there's so many the
first one but I think you can genuinely point at multiple alpha clutches and say
the same thing. Yeah, has dragged this team through some impossible rounds. Yeah, I don't
even think that I think that belief was created by the first one. And then he had two more
rounds, then crashes that around, then Siebel that around. It was like that was just the
momentum building. And it took then heretics having a moment of their own and ace from
Rians to break that momentum. It feels like we're back level again, back with the scales,
perfectly balanced. Back with either side needing just two rounds in a row to make or
break their London experience. And make or break their year. Two internationals missed
for either of these teams is a failure. And it's a standard that is only held to very
very few. Oh, damage. Lots of damage. Koshmarus with the wall bang on the boaster to hold
in effect. To great effect, apparently. They know there was a spam in main. Fanatic know
that someone was around. Fine, but woot! How is he still alive? And Crashy's tagged
up from their battle earlier. Isn't a lot of trouble. The spike is alone in his hands.
If he falls this round is done, there's only 35 seconds left and who needs to be made.
Kashmaras toying with his food.
We all know that's why the main is where the turning point of this round comes into play.
They don't yet know on the defensive side that the spike is there, but with 20 seconds
they will be finding out.
Woot swings in for Seaball and they delaying the push out from Crash.
The time ticking away, there's 12 seconds left.
As Fnatic make it towards the site, they're catching kills across the board, but there is no time, a denial of the plant, all that's needed, but heretics have failed at that hurdle, and now Crashy's given a chance to lifeline for Fnatic, but it's left behind.
Are you going to blame me for that? That's on me, right?
the second that initial battle you said it like crashy being alone with the spike
the remaining players knew they had to wrap around and kill everyone on site
what's meant to be is meant to be and I can't change that
I thought there was no way he gets out of that alive but this is not where the
shoe is on the other foot you said it the fact that fanatic have never missed
Two events back to back the fact that they had their life in their own hands. What clearly they feel I'm jinxing
Are you hearing these castors arms are sweaty? Are you hearing these fucking fun facts?
They're post the posting right now in favor of another just given a chance to talk
But it seems like someone else in the morning is talking maybe just trying to break that momentum of heretics
The fact is without fear
He's not gone quiet, but he's not
not averaging four kills around like he's not being able yo don't blame me for fanatic
choking a 12-9 lead on defense side ascent you hear me no no no that is not on me specifically
towards that ascent that's where they've started to pinpoint the b site yeah if we go there
alpha yet might just kill all of us so last couple of times they've challenged a now heretics
Heading up 14 to 13 one round you choked at 12.5. Yeah, I didn't sit there blaming shot from under fanatic
The team that they 13 2d in the previous map all signs pointing to a heretics victory
But for fanatic back on the defensive side this team in fact chat still attacked me
That it's a while each win recent times. It's been hard to be humble. Well, that might change here today with just one round
Oh, how do you presence towards that B site, as said, that is where Alpha Yera has been.
Maybe just trying to form some disinformation once again.
Kayak in wine again.
Look at Denji, bro, just taking mid by himself.
B pressure into mid pressure, he's doing it all on his own.
Passive from passive from fanatic and not something that has been needed to be challenged
There is still a dog break from whoever loses. I agree. I completely agree. It's fucked
My look at this heaven split
Look at the ceiling in a similar way to the last
what a clear huge boaster huge what's his name again climb it come on oh my
no that's not what we lose our hands on the cross back the hero of so many rounds
for heretics the spike is still there for the attackers the rap around heretics
are doing it chat they're going back to be just like I asked them to last time
But can the spike make it to the side in time? God damn it. It's not going to work
Really shitties doing God's work, dude. They're hearts are beating so fast
What a smoke. What a smoke. The reposition check
But they haven't managed to capitalize on the back of the Benji's been clean and now we're up to the leader of boo
A 1v2 to win this one out to get rid of fanatic from this corner
But the shots are landing till the last moment
Two bullets remain and you're ready to go to the end
I'm gonna have a full clap from boo
The moment where heretics go marching on
And fanatic fail to make London
The kings who lost their throne have failed to find their way
Fnatic's run, the road to London paved with disappointment and pain as team
heretics sit opposite them on this stage one of the biggest games that they've
shared and they find success flying colors on map number two and they dig
deep to deliver a humbling blow to Fnatic. It is one though I'm sure it's
It's gonna be remembered for the org, for the players, it's a tough defeat to have them for heretics.
It's a squad that, as we said, at the beginning of this stage, it looked devastating, it looked done.
Like if you told me that they would be one match away from Masters London, I would have called you crazy.
But they made the changes, Cozmaras seems to be an enlightenment for this squad.
Rienz has made incredible form, and when someone rises, it's a little better.
They were 12-9 off, that's what's even more fucked.
Like, it would've been fucked for either team to lose.
But they were 12-9 up on defense.
Clutch after clutch after clutch.
Now, our low G-Dor-Riebs is insane for the last, uh, 20 minutes, 12-10, 12-11.
an ace into a 2v1 clutch, an almost unwinnable clutch.
I don't understand though, like in that 1v2, when Kayak was spawned, angled up on lane,
they know he's site, they gotta know he was site, no? Did they not know?
Like that he could be stairs there was no idea. Maybe they just didn't know
He jumped
He jumped on site. Yes, so there was noise so they knew he was there
So my confusion is why did kayak keep the lane angle?
When the stairs angles ten times more likely
I just wanted to check the temperature right now because I can tell you're shaking me and
Google I was sitting there shaking as well. She's still shaking too. This was unbelievable.
How did you guys make that happen because the amount of that is such a fucked around.
That would have been game right there. That's game. I love reading so much. Oh my God. This
guy is the greatest player in the world. I'm so okay. I wish I could have done more on
Ascent to help us. I honestly I messed up. I remember on the anti-curve 5e2. That was my bad, but we've got ns
I'm so happy
It's so cute, bro. That's sweetheart. You have had phenomenal performances and even on the ascent
Some of the decisions that you've made when it comes down to taking out the start for example
Just so that they don't check your team so you sell them on the face
You've done that. Okay, don't be hard on yourself because you've made this happen
He did a lot of by the way the amount of time see he was holding mid off on attack
He kept three players at B like a couple of the rounds
He was taking mid by himself
And he carried on fracture they lost but he carried
Actually he carried on fucking lotus to what am I saying?
You're still in the running to London, which is a breath a lifeline next game
However, it is gentle mates against eternal fire. It could be any turn of fire rematch. Is that what you're hoping for?
I love my boys and gentlemen. I
Okay, I want to make the win but I would love to have a rematch against the final fire
I think we've improved a lot as a tanger game
I think we would have a really good chance of being them banger fucking game
Robo play gets down a fight anything you want to say to the fans that we're literally screaming
Why he's so sweet he's actually so sweet
Yeah, I just just want them to lose still it's so fucked bro. My hey, I hate my brain sometimes
like literally the chillest dudes they're so sweet they're so nice they don't have the egos
they don't talk shit they don't do none of that and yet I'm just a piece of shit I agree with you
Oh, what's Ryan saying? I heard you lost money
This is the exact round I was talking about
Why is Kayak?
Not looking at stairs. Yeah, he can run a but you know, he also he can do he can also stay be
You know wait, I don't say why it's cag no looking at the stairs angle and then my cha-chan hit me with the
Well, boaster didn't comment boaster didn't comment
I don't give a fuck if boaster comment or didn't comment in those
12 seconds of timing
You should be able to realize that he can it's just like a it's just a sitting gambling ad or a
Anti-gambling ad right now. This is exactly what I'd be doing. This is exactly what I did
And we cashed out our arsenal bet. This is the worst day ever
He's one hit to the out. Oh my god, kayak. I'm actually sick that is pretty fucked chat
Yeah
I'm actually that is pretty fucked
Region and now re-ends it is thickening it is absolutely thickening like valid thickening
Valid thickness
Sickness valid thickness, bro, I'm sick
It's fuck though. I agree that that's the round like you just win that round I
Genuinely don't understand the laps in communication or whatever it was. I don't get it. I actually don't
That's heartbreaking as fuck though. I I do feel for it fanatic, but I will say this
I would have felt worse for for heretics because honestly, they should have one fracture in my opinion. I
Would have genuinely felt worse for heretics losing
So GG's end of the day it is what it is
Riot needs to fix the system and just add four teams per tournament every time well next year. It's different. So at least there's that
Holy fuck. Go to Yinsu? Why? What's Yinsu saying?
Windows. You didn't even buy it for me. I can't activate it if I wanted to. He's a little
cheapo.
Wait, who is it? I mean, now he's got nothing else to do with it.
Who's in the hot shot seat?
He's buying me Windows. Well, I feel so mean saying that. It's fine. I got to just push
through.
Hi, Arc.
Hi, they have a sub. It's hard, you guys. I think my-
Ask why he didn't hold the stairs angle.
I'm actually curious my expectations are so low because I have a sob. Tell me now. I'm genuinely curious
This is not like play realistic to expect a team that had an emergency sob
It's not playing. I'm not trying to make a global venue. No, I think it's asking too much of them
They spent no slaying Becky to get a good
So truly it's your pro player. You guys have a star before
Right, you guys also wait. What did you when did fancy come in? Did you play with fancy? I don't remember
Oh, I was the saviour is you an aura you an aura
No, Pujon, I'm not asking him that is John. I'm not this is the difference between me and like these
please bro like it's a regular game question like what the fuck are we on about okay
Like just it's a regular game. It's it happens is like what it happens it literally happens
I'm just asking why it was their comms issue. Did he not know their site? I just want to know I just want to goddamn know I
Told them if they want to send someone
Great if they don't want to send anyone it's fine like I understand. It's not flame
It's actually not playing at all. Oh, Ryan's asking the same thing. It's not flame think about it
Okay, I understand it's right after the game. I understand that it's annoying as fuck
Maybe he feels responsible. Maybe he doesn't but it's a truthfully analytical question about a significant round
Just because it has directly to do with him does not change that fact
Like we are not trying to talk shit it is what it is I
I promise I promise I would never why would I claim clients guys a fucking monster?
It is what it is. I don't think why did you just say what I told for not a wealth
Keeps happening
No because she's got a personal investment on the team, I know that's why she feels bad asking it
And I get that I guess I understand whatever it's fine. I'll just figure it out my own. I'll ask Austin
It's fair enough
Fair enough if I had a person like if I personally felt bad about the person and like felt like you know, that's fair
Whatever, it's all good. It's all G. It's all G. It's all G
I'll let you know I'll let you know what Austin says because it's not flame. I promise. I'm not trying to flame nobody
like
We just want to know what happened. That's it. It could just be as simple a simple answer as yeah
We thought he jumped back up lane
Okay done, that's all I wanted to know
Ravish can ask oh, that's true Ravish you still here
You can hit him with the hey man
And you don't have to answer this question because I understand that it's raw, the feeling
of losing right now is raw, however, and then ask the question.
I think it's okay just literally not after five minutes after they lost.
That's honestly fair enough.
You know, it is what it is.
We'll ask later.
That's a fair argument against what I am saying.
Alright guys, I'm gonna go take a break.
Today was genuinely a good time.
I had a fucking fun ass time on stream.
I might get this coffee more often.
I have not been this wired in a long time.
Holy fuck.
I had a goddamn blast.
Thank you guys.
It was genuinely a fun time.
I appreciate all of you.
Thank you for making stream fucking hilarious.
I appreciate it.
Good luck to Hereticz, moving forward and Fanatic,
I feel bad, but they'll bounce back, they always do.
Who do you guys want me to raid?
Is this the question?
I will be watching Americas, guys.
We will be watching Americas, guaranteed.
So we will be back before America starts.
Banger game, this is a banger, actually both,
because Lev is fighting for first seed.
So, if Lev get first seed, that means MIBR have to win two games, and then NRG send obvious,
like one of them have to win.
Yinsu?
I don't know if she's going to stay on.
Are you staying on?
What did Berser say?
I don't want to say what he said.
I'm going to keep it private.
Who's cursing us?
I don't know.
I don't know.
Are you staying on?
Yeah, man.
Wait, you're not going are you? Isn't the arsenal game done bro? You got to watch gentle mates suck my dick
This is eternal fire. I'm not gonna fuck
Serious
