I want you to think I'm alive.
I think I'll back you on the floor.

Today, four more teams get a second chance to advance in the middle bracket. One wrong move and you could be facing elimination down below.
Hello, and welcome to VCT America's Kickoff.
Come to see a lot from the Riot Games Arena.
Counts you here in sunny Los Angeles, California.
But we're not outside in the sun.
We're here to watch more Valorant,
which is very exciting.
Say, Yippee.
Yippee!
And I refuse to give me my holding my gun.
Stickin' to my guns here.
Yes, I'm gunned if I'm gonna give it a try.
I'm gonna give it a try, Yippee.
Aw, who?
OK, I'll take a watch.
That's a win for me.
Well, you know, why now all four international leagues
across the world are hosting their kick-off tournaments,
which, of course, means we're having some amazing plays
that you want America's.
We wanted to highlight some of those plays.
Here's the top three that we've seen thus far in EMEA.
We've learned about the entrepreneurs
that they are actually denied,
the version lots of all to here to try to decide it.
Open up passage, but a quick flash of a quick pushback,
KC already this time.
Watched.
I love his rocket's also been revealed. So, fininger, he's not been having a great time, but he's.
Do you want to sleep for a bit? He's bringing up the power. He has, oh yeah.
On the sidestep in close, huh?
No.
See net easy.
Come on, come on, come on.
Hey, best, you can't look at yourself swimming.
Oh, no, it's going to clip that.
Don't clip that.
This vision is terrible.
I would like to, well, I'm the half of everybody here.
I mean, yeah, me, I give a massive thank you to America.
Thank you to America.
Hello?
And you know what, thank you to them too.
I think that was some pretty amazing game play that we saw in this play.
I thought that was cool.
I don't can do this for the record.
Some of the games of all time.
Yeah, and same plays you talk.
You thought those plays were good, right?
Or are you more competitive?
I'm competitive.
The seventh stage.
I'm pleading the fifth on this stage.
You're pleading the fifth.
You're not commenting on our friends over any, yeah.
I don't know.
Right.
On this particular couch.
This is a soft wind.
I don't think it actually is.
Let's move on and tell you about what's going on this weekend.
We're of course in the middle bracket.
We already watched two games yesterday.
which you've put 100 thieves and sent in to the second round today, we're closing out
the opener to this bracket with crew envy alongside levieton and cloud nine.
I think that this is the point in the tournament where it does start to get pretty intense.
I mean, three chances is amazing.
But once you're down below, it is such a long road to qualify.
So, pressure is really on for the theme, so that.
Yeah, you're going to end up having to play a lot of games.
Some teams will thrive in that as well.
They're trying to work out the King's.
I think that's one of the benefits of if you do fall down.
Early on, you have some more,
some more reps on the stage trying battle through,
but it's tough, either way.
You don't want to be the first team dropping down
to that lower ground, too.
That's a good skilly.
Well, now you can be the 13 dropping down,
if you lose the H.I.D.
That's something.
Let's talk about some of those players.
They have had a bit of a struggle early on in America's kickoff.
And we can get a pitch on why they're going to comb back
stronger and show us something more.
everyone on the desk has picked someone out and I want to start with you. Give me your stuff.
I feel like mine is the easiest softball to hit right here. And it's got to be spike, right?
I think spike came in as that touted rookie midway through that last year was so strong.
Unfortunately, I think in the opening game, just didn't really live up to what we know.
He is capable of. I think that's just kind of one that you can light off for him,
but such a talented younger player. Now picking up flashes for Levy Tom,
a lot more of a flex player, I think he's going to have way higher highs than we saw in that opening matchup.
Yeah, he is a guy who, I think even when you were watching him in tier 2,
before his arrival in 2G, was just always so impressive.
You expect him to thrive, but if we're talking about guys who popped up into your two,
I think your pitch fits that little exact remark.
Heck yeah, I got the extra, the Eggman, baby.
We all know him as a one trick you're a player, but I mean,
And we've seen a lot of this mastermind that we've seen from your little himself.
He does a lot of these plays a lot of really good mid clears, information gathering,
and a lot of these flashes for him and himself to him and to himself.
Him and his team to peak, but he was like last week we saw little lack less of a play.
We couldn't really get a lot of that information.
It felt like he was constantly being shut down.
I don't know if it's a story of, you know, you have a lot of the same tendencies and
you've got on it, or if he needs to just get a little bit more creative in this
river, but I think he's going to pick it back up, lock back in, and to that
form and be that delicious that we really like.
Yeah, I think not only do you expect him for two for four, but you need him to
for him.
Yeah.
They're so reliant on case your group, like I want to turn out to you, Emily.
Who do you got from me?
I got the big Xelsas, the big Xelsas, the guys who took on a big responsibility
joining us in nine again.
You know, he is on the IGL, and I think he's doing up a normal job.
even without breach utility on, and Kay,
utility, and he's really good at flexing and supporting his team.
But I want to see you get more active.
I want to see him going through those equals.
I want to see him taking more fights after his extended
all-visi utility.
He had to keep a ability to do it,
but he's just so focused on supporting
and making sure everyone around in this setup
that he doesn't really do that as much and stuff.
I want to see him getting like three breach
all in a half or something crazy like that.
And listen, you're on a team-port cloud dime.
Really, the sky is your limit.
Okay.
Okay, I'm not recording a close-up.
All right.
Um, but sure.
Yeah, I'd love to see more from Zell's this as well.
I think if I were to bring up a player that were really
looking at going into their second game,
it would have to be another MVP player in inspire
because in his first game, he went up against Ospos
and had some thoughts about it.
He writes on Twitter on a real note,
I swear Ospos has plot armor.
Never gained someone so much and he still running around
like I just take open.
That's a good one in 14, that's tough.
That is tough.
And I think that that is sort of a right of passage.
You know, you step on to the America stage
at some point you have to play against Osboss
and at some point you're going to be dropping 40 on you
and absolutely destroying you in server.
Poor guy, even there, has the first shot
ends up losing the pistol, but it was the Osboss overs.
I was just gonna say, these clips are so sad
because like we've been in this exact same situation.
Everyone at the player has had that one player
that has been downed by Osboss before.
Yeah, I'm, oh, hell yeah.
I'm gonna have to talk about it.
They're gonna be on the so high
that they want to scream as anymore.
I'm gonna have to be talking about it here.
Yeah, he is a beast for sure in the server.
And for envy, I think that was a bit of a tough go
and really going into that first match.
So many of the questions were surrounding their playstyle
from tier two and how well did they
could actually implement that now heading into America's.
When I know you've prep to tell a straighter,
talking about some of those differences.
I have a really sick telly for you guys.
And I want to talk about how envy,
they kind of solidified their play saw
as you said around that year.
But when it comes to having a one-trigger player,
how much can you really do without getting countered?
And so a pretty good explanation for this.
Or example of this is their plays versus ascension
and in kickoff.
So what you're going to see here is they have this,
the XQ on at this, that they've always done around this
your alt tp play. So you can see over here on both sides, they're getting ready for that.
And they throw that tp into try to get that your into heaven, get as much information as they can
on that be execute. So you can see extra if he gets up into heaven, gets a lot of that
information towards tt. They're down numbers, but it doesn't matter because they're now set up
to play on site for their placements. It's just something that envy really likes to do. And
basically that's all I want to show you for that is sentiment because they do the exact same thing
here versus a myBR, exact same TP into that spot, and as you can see here,
each TP is into it, tries to get up into heaven, but what we notice here from
a myBR is the little micro place, Texas already spamming this spot. They know
that he's gonna get here, they know that they can see it, and as well that
the silver don't actually coming out from Bruno tags him, forcing him to
TP back into a main, and that plan to kind of play post on site is kind of
demolished. And right away, you see pop-in getting dropped. A lot of these players are already
flooding off the site from on my BR and as you can see here, literally everyone is already here.
So for envy, they've played this, they've seen this kind of go. It's not working out for them.
I'm hoping to see a lot more cleativeness within their playstyle. Even though it is really good
in standard ground I euro. Yeah, because one of the hallmarks of envy's play is especially in post
plans playing very far forward. And when Xures allowed to do that, it's very successful with teams
are ready for him and forcing him to teleport back or die early on, and you're going to
struggle.
Yeah, but I still think we're going to kind of see him thrive against those teams that
aren't really solidified with their own place.
Yeah, we saw that against E.G.
We saw that 20.0, and they caught them off guard.
M.I.B.R. is a more well-rounded team.
They have a lot of experience.
They play really well together.
So it wasn't that hard for them to kind of count as something like that.
But the way that I'm the place, it's just so annoying and hard to kind of find a strategy,
or just honestly, a counter to it, if you're not already like have that kind of team
chemistry is what I'm getting.
So the question is to reflect on that or how can you iterate on your
style or how can you move to something new for envy.
But it might be a little bit more simple today.
They're going to be going up against Cruz,
subs that you'd squad, which means that Kessent has a bit of an
opportunity here putting on the enviatures in the
substitute in self to play against this crew squad and their
who he has been with for literally his entire career.
Yeah, for a second, I was like, oh, the opportunity is he's going to
put on his old jersey again and go across the side.
You're back in for him, but no, I mean,
his entire career has been with this crew team.
I think that one of the biggest surprises in 2026
is the fact that he's not gawning the crew jersey
and now going up against his old team
has that chance taken down.
Yeah, and I also really like the new look
that we've seen with Kevin and Enbing.
Like, he's feeling like he's a lot more loose.
He has a lot more free range of what he wants to do,
especially those post-line situations
where Enbing like to push up.
I feel like Enbing is a very, yes, man kind of.
It's mean so that they're willing to back any ideas
that he has going into the round.
I think, too, it's really nice seeing him step into a little bit more of that new role with
the wayly with the ISO.
We haven't seen him do that much last time that we've seen him.
And so stepping into that, he can't really have Tennessee's that are going to be read by
the other team who know him so well with NTA and now he's at, but it's just like, he
has his whole new playstyle around him with envy.
He's slotted in really nicely and he's genuinely taken that role and not tried to put some
crazy spin on it.
But it's all placed out but nothing too crazy. Bruins and me.
So facing off against his former organization and two players that he's familiar with from
crews of all, we get to hear a little more about casnic thoughts on this matchup as he stands
by with Scyt.
You were with Chris since 2021 and now this is the first time you have to go up against
your former team. How do you approach this matchup mentally and also would a win
and still feel special or volidating even though you're just going up against there.
So, what's your question?
Well, the truth is that, I don't have any mental pressure.
Obviously, it's difficult to infect the rival who represented my life,
but we're going to tell you about that story.
And if you're listening to me, I think it's a little bit of a story.
So, we're going to tell you about a story.
So, let's go.
Yeah, for him, it's no pressure at all really to face off against crew.
But it is a little difficult knowing that he was representing
that organization for so long, but you know, it's not really his fault that they have
so Brussels, that's kind of bad luck on their part, and you know, they're going to take
this victory and go and be right on. Good luck.
Orton for the new team, but it's cool to see that he's still kind of taking that opportunity,
even if it is a very different crew. Let's talk a little bit more about crew, of course,
because of crews. These are problems he's already mentioned. They still have to field a
substitute roster for their first game in this middle bracket.
So let's just let's a little bit on that first game that this sub roster
plays against Yuria. A lot of new players stepping in and
send all the ones as well. What was the vibe you were getting from this new team?
I mean, this was actually a really interesting series because I think people looked at it
initially and were like, oh wow, they actually took a match or they took a match off of
Yuria. Maybe Fury has not actually as good as we thought, but then going and seeing how
I think that who have a little bit more punch in there, taking a map off
Syria.
For sure, I feel like when you look at a sub roster, you're always expecting
some kind of disconnect, but it really felt like they have been playing a lot
together.
They understand how each other play, and taking that map off of Syria, yes,
Syria might have been warming up, but they still had a solid game time to kind of go
around, especially in that pearl.
They didn't feel really nervous, they didn't feel anxious, it just felt like they were
there to play.
Yeah, and I just think the individual talent on this roster is really insane for it.
Like, a Ben Jean, that's the clutching hero plays that I was seeing that were kind of winning
them those rounds.
We're phenomenal.
And I think you're right when you say that like the more reps that they have together,
the better they will be and they could really do some danger.
Yeah, you mentioned Ben Jean, one of those career academy players, that got the step
on to the big stage with the changes to this roster.
Let's go ahead and check back in with Zoe who has Ben Jean with her.
Benji, you guys came in as the soft roster.
You lost your first match, but you played a really close,
and I think a lot of that was just based on the individual
clutches and standard performances.
Now this week that you have time as a team
to dig a little deeper strategically for the match.
Yeah, see, I really don't know what we're talking about.
It's been a long time since we've lost.
Because we haven't.
So, I don't know what to do.
I thought I'd be going to get the chance
to get a little more of it,
because it's been a long time since we've lost a lot.
I don't want to have this feeling of
making a fault to something like that.
I'll try it out.
Yeah, you know, they really left off
the last match with that bone in their side
that if they just had that little
much more chance of practice,
they could have done better.
You know, this week, they came prepared
to do really well.
I don't. Best of luck.
A bit of extra time for this new crew
to come in prepare.
I think it is really an interesting opportunity
for these players for me and me,
especially those Academy guys,
to get that chance to really show how good they are.
And maybe give a pitch, now just a crew,
but there are two or one teams as well.
I mean, I think they have.
I mean, after they're first, they'd be on all the things
that I saw, like just the raw talent
on every single one of these players,
I felt like this is not gonna be the last time
we see them in the tier one.
Yeah, and that path to pro is something
that their opponent envy has really shown going
from a team called Rankers and poking it out.
So now being all the way here in VCT America.
So we've got path being possible.
Let's see what you guys at home have.
And if any of you might be ready to follow in their footsteps,
you've got a segment called, what you got and whoo!
I'm sure the viewers have submitted some extra stuff.
Okay, let's see.
Let's see.
Yeah.
That's so pretty.
You've got to start, okay?
Oh, oh!
Oh, oh!
He's awesome.
That's awesome.
I like the wall movement too.
That's kind of a stick round.
I don't even want to do it.
Okay.
This is a video of the party.
It's like this.
It's person.
Go on.
That was good.
That was good.
Okay, Ruby.
Yeah.
Okay, Ruby.
Oh, oh.
That's fine.
No, that's fine.
Whoa.
Oh, my God.
That's actually great.
Chris.
Yeah, that's a little true.
It's happy.
Yo.
It might be next up.
Can't wait.
I can't wait.
Okay.
Big old.
That's a massive hole.
What a timing.
Yo, I'd be mad.
Look he happy man.
Oh hey.
Yeah.
I mean that's the rope.
That's another awesome clip.
I'm not even walking.
Yeah.
I just like the three awesome.
That's amazing.
Guys, it's like we're talking bad about Harper.
Look at this.
Harper.
Wait, that's a hard one.
He's a racer.
I'm going to say it.
I'm not a racer.
I'm going to say it.
I'm going to say it.
Wait, wait.
I'm going to say it.
Let's go, Ashley.
What is the thing?
Will it want me to pause?
Well, this is really great.
Well, this is really great.
Well, this is really great.
This is my game.
We're going into the night.
We're going to eat night stuff.
Oh, come on.
Yeah.
It's a great flash.
Yeah.
The biggest fan right there.
Ooh.
That's nice stuff.
That was nice.
It was a wonderful thing.
Yeah.
Just playing a bandit clip.
Okay.
Wait, this is even unexpected.
It's going to be a dead clone.
They're like, the guys might keep it.
It's a big one.
Wait, it's a big one.
It's a big one.
It's a social media matter.
social media managers. Okay.
You know, okay. Wait, you're kind of insane.
They're too old without two, like, they're a box to make.
There's no way out, but kill the mobile.
I think they like it. You just snuck her own clip in it.
Yeah.
It's really nice clip.
That was insane.
I remember if you participate in any of the social media opportunities
to submit a clip or or anything to us, you get the exclusive I create
gun buddy in game, which you can only get through participating in something
like this.
You were talking about it.
I was talking about it.
I was in the segment.
You didn't create anything.
He asked you to comment on the EME.
That's messed up.
Yeah.
Not at all.
Creation from those people we show, okay?
Let's take a look at the talent predictions
and zero back in on the matches that we're playing today.
Oh, you know what?
Oh, you know what?
Is anyone scared about this prospect?
Never doubt.
Well, we've seen this go bad for us before.
Yeah.
Are you worried?
I want to say I'm worried, but definitely hearing that crew had a little bit more time.
They genuinely went into practice mode and we saw them kind of be pretty strong last week.
I think they have potential. I'm not worried. I think envy speaks a lot of their issues.
But I am definitely like, it's going to be a lot closer than I thought.
The only way envy alusus one is if Kesmit is activated. The sleeper agent.
The sleeper agent.
I did the only one.
The viewers agree 84.4% of you folks at home voting for envy to win this one.
Emily, look at this game.
Are there any other than sleep origins?
Like, when commissions go or seeing four crew to give them a chance here?
I mean, I just really like what I've been seeing out of envy.
I feel like, like I said, it's, they're placed out as so hard in a knowing to kind of counter.
You kind of have to adjust to them.
And I just don't know how well true be able to do that on like such a sore amount of time.
I think that's a no, me, me.
I think that's a good idea.
I think that's a good idea.
Well, NV are going to have to really
lock in on this new style.
But I think it's great not for them to bounce back.
Absolutely. This is going to be a big one for them.
Keep things clean at the start of middle bracket.
Yeah, let's see if they can do it.
Remember the middle bracket on the line.
You lose this.
You run out of chances.
So let's get ready to get this day underway.
It's a sub squat back for another round against our
a sentient team and we who will take on the win in the middle bracket we
find out as we get underway for day number two.
We climbed a gigantic mountain to get here. We're happy just being there and playing, just
enjoy living the dream, and that's like one of our biggest strengths. Everyone that's
It's really confident in taking their timings and players.
Maybe too much, like that's like the downside and upside to it.
It looks stupid when it doesn't work, but like we play out with practice.
Kestants, come online!
I've met all the other players for super cool.
In and outside of the game, they brought it raw scene.
Kestants, we're obviously very experienced.
Probably a completely different team.
They're playing with some substitutes.
You know, to make sure that's going to be more over-worked out.
Banging you the plan to attack, he gets them, he catches up for crew.
I'm feeling this game long enough to know that anything can happen.
We'll take them as a strong front end, like every team, and just try to, like,
dominate as fast as we can or own a way.
Welcome back to the catfotes. It's over and why he's
to take you into this very interesting middle bracket game we have between crew and MV.
Two rostes who had grand designs for this year of ACT, two rostes that have had to make
do with less than complete rostes.
For very different reasons in fairness, but crew have really had to bring themselves together.
Brought some academy players up, brought some Northern American challenges players into the
fold here and obviously gave us some pretty strong showy in week one.
Yeah, they made us believe there was going to be a repeat of how furious started.
last year in 2025 when they took that map one and it was an impressive win, especially
given the context that these guys had basically zero practice going into it.
And now they've had a week to actually work together and that is including these two
challenges players from Winthrop in Governor and Infiltrator who are locked in working with
the Seamer now, Challenges has started and they are dedicated to this crew roster at
the moment to try and make a run here in kickoff.
In a way, I'm absolutely, this to me is quite interesting.
In the ass-selecting of this, again, the players map twice already,
and neither of those outings were particularly compelling.
Now, we'll forgive the MIBR results, perhaps,
but that each game obviously, a lot of back and forth,
they struggled, I think, playing into those heavily held sites
by the veto, bow, is anchoring very well against them.
They're going to run it back here, though.
If you're like, with that, I saw in their come with Kez and obviously,
kind of being told just to go, do whatever.
They feel like they can have the edge.
Yeah, considering this crew team,
they don't have a map pool as a team.
They just started.
They don't really know what's going to be at the top of them.
They can just target Ben.
What has been good for envy.
And that's being corroded.
That is gone.
So we're going to head to a bit that, you know,
and if they're having to play, but they're all in two.
And they are switching Keznett from the ISO over to the way
way.
And he's mentioned in an interview recently
that he's really enjoying playing with this envy team
and their coach, Stoner,
because he's allowing him as a player,
as a dualist to have the freedom
to just play whatever he wants on the day.
Whatever he feels comfortable with,
whatever he feels like he's going to frag out
with just play it.
And that was the methodology
that had with Caine Zero last year.
He was a funny whatever he wanted.
So that's the environment
because it can maybe thrive in there.
This is vacuum.
In emptyware, that individual flare
can feel that spike.
So it's not gonna look exactly the same.
It's Caine Zero, for example,
but you know, the Caine's that can deliver
level. And we did see practically speaking as well, like against that EG conference
since where they had the video sentinel, the ISO was struggling to get past that utility.
While they will have no such problems getting past any choke points, that is just the nature
of the agent and why so many teams are leaning into a so heavily in the current meta.
People are at velocity often than what ISO can give out. It can be in the on this defense side.
For me, I's on Benji, great calling in his first week, really solid play in general, fundamentals and fracking, all that's pretty tough notch.
Yeah, I also don't have eyes on this, this is like brimstone right now. The go for the double smoke, definitely thought he would be on something like chamber, and playin' like that, but, no.
A brim, I mean, that's a rare pitch.
Respect.
Thanks for your forward early.
So I'm gonna be captured here in walls, all ready to go some step over towards the site.
I think there's a protrader is dealing up to his name.
He'll be trying to early here next up on the corner.
Conquying get out with that gate crest.
That leaves in the outside of the sign.
Yeah, that was a great relief.
You know, that's a question to immediately straight up walking.
I mean, that's so easy for me.
Oh, my God.
This was infiltrated and clean up.
I mean, this is a guy who, you know,
the late into 2025 was at the top of the Challenger scene
as far as Duelis goes would definitely be surprised if he wasn't
a prospect for VcD teams this year.
Is that a sanction?
Yeah, they're showing that.
There's a must have been some coaches to get them.
So we're looking at this guy as a potential pick-up.
And he's certainly someone that in the future,
I think you could see in the late full-time.
And you know, last year in challenges,
Winthrop played against him to get a bunch.
Actually, never managed to beat them.
So you can try to uncover and have not gotten one over
on this squad just here, but that's a great way at least two.
Blossom Steam sent a smaller, gradually grand scheme of things.
I'm trying to be testing that main direction, and we're trying to do why.
I look you can trust it on defense and we are going to go very agro pushes on these
extremities.
I was something that M.I.B.R. were able to heavily counter in their game, exploit
it really to give advantage of the wrongs, so let's see if crew can do the same.
Plenty to see if they're f'ing out scarring and be plays in a main showing themselves
to the Al drone and in the meantime they're getting active crew up on coast.
We'll have this side itself.
See, pay for pure retake as Rossi is the weak side attendant and all crew are going to drift over.
It should be very pretty.
I think it's fine.
I am interested in seeing what this brim is going to be bringing to the scene.
I'll just give this very long way out and slow down on the screen.
trying to hear MTA, ready to receive, is maybe drop down off of him?
What the heck is he getting?
What the fuck are walking the flash on the same timing of the smukers?
He's pretty good for him, but still crew get himself a full set of stuff.
They make the right choice off to the Aldrung, give some kind of relief for the need.
So that brim is definitely going to be obnoxious for NB in postplants.
That is an obvious point to me.
We've seen in the past when teams of the brand don't want to see it.
They'll try to put a lot of emphasis on smoking those lanes in mid to threaten that you could just be silently creeping up mid behind them
So imagine that something that'll get mixed in at some point too. It feels like the analog for the old harbour
We used to see in these comes on Ebisu as well really just trying to blank it those science
So it looks like the teleport is going to go a mid at a small down
Multiple end replays
If you were to see any aggression that could have come
Great crash there was up mid for crew but faked
I've really managed to rally the cage to a great degree in this round outside of a brief exchange in mid
And now I can really know utility on this A site to actually stall in the choke
This should be very easy for crew to just bypass get the spike down and play out a retix situation
I'm not thinking really to do about that.
NV by up in and honestly it's what inspires everyone who they're on the side of me.
Flashed out.
Still find those two important fries in a very unlikely scenario.
I want to see that on the replay.
I think maybe all three players there were just blinded, which was why there wasn't actually
the trade-off of him.
There was a pandemic came and they kind of beat it NV into fighting.
I think that massive in some level of team flash there to an infiltrator was just so
week that was like a shop to the house. Look at my shop, but I still know that's on a horrific
round for crew. A little bit of damage. They get that plant down full wide coming up now and
they've got NB. Some of their players are very not that common spot.
She sort of makes you know ready that smokes for an up top meat?
No, you could just sell by the many mouth that and you want to do something aggro down
Look at this from Kesin.
But it's a refractive necessary,
but won't take any early fight
could not give a to him.
Stay as though.
Next up, Ping Bouti.
New there'd be something behind us,
but we'll be able to make the correction here all.
Does he have an awareness of who might be lurking behind the box?
He's trying to do this!
Kesin!
Break your pants!
Now we can light-speed away at least,
get some distance away from Infiltrated.
Crystal Scarring in the backfields!
Next!
Andly over the water's be-side of the map here.
Infiltrated with Drift goes up,
Drift goes up mid and
bypass its resident.
Am I being a light?
A pop here from his base out of the map.
I would have the signature.
So far away.
At the moment, who could even help him?
I mean, it inspires caught on the rotate.
Is there going to be a double back from crew tours?
It looks like they're thinking about it.
I may be an opportunity for Benji to catch one on the rotate.
He's trying to imply that they're still considering B.
With that start deployed,
and maybe he will linger around it.
I think Eggster might have spotted Benji on the crossbow just before the wall came up as hard to tell. He was making a calm when we saw him.
on him.
The scream of a second, where I see him.
Pretty high price to pay to keep in the interest of what's happening over a baby.
Are these going to allow crew?
What?
What?
I mean, MTA.
I was about to say MTA got a lot of damage.
And I mean, he took even more because he fell off the map.
That is not tied.
So, all on governor.
They already had to pay the earlier to get into that site.
They had to trade into a single player.
And then losing him.
In the other day, the timing might have been fine, but Rossi is watching.
He said some good awareness here, I know a couple of his glass rounds.
We've caught an axe and he was going for that line up with the brim Molly,
to basically seal the deal on that retake.
And now here, just expecting the spawn push as well.
Such a big commitment from Binti onto that B-sign.
He's not the C-thros that asked us about down.
Linger, little bit though, he actually goes pushes up to coast and tries to make some of the offer.
It is completely outnumbered at that side.
Yeah, it feels like he could have caught a timing there, but I think extra saw him, um, so he is inevitably dealt with.
Now, crew on to the eco, a couple of buckies for their two duelists.
We'll see if that can get any value with the double dive.
It's mentioned just these last round for infiltrator.
We just got kicked as soon as he gave crash back away from the side.
Yeah, honestly, I did feel like around where you're seeing the whack of experience these guys have together as things just kind of really messy
We've been using that alternate no one able to follow up off of it
Now I'll turn here is just check me to get these heavy control set up you need to weekly that safely
Mid-round
If you have to go to my back the texture is about to force your breakfast away now
Cool outside the side by the time being smoking their way and again the weapons is on good enough for this
And now what is the move here from crew? They have the zero map control
But envy have rotated players off of this A site, so I re-hit
Don't be terrible and cycled as nebula and the instill by some time ultimately crew are gonna have to fuck this truck
Just waiting for this flash to come over the top from infiltrator and then the burst
I'm going to show you how to use the Dragon Sword and not a problem.
And to that make sure work of two.
Swine and Chimes in.
That was a still fight for NB's now.
I've been showing you how on your roost here this ice-side.
Fetchy with only a sharp.
But act to a board's miracles.
Fair bit of damage from the crew, but
and obviously it was just such a superior weapon.
They're able to handle that, re-hit.
And given that the first hit attempt,
got rid of all of the dive utility from the duelists.
extra even though he's in that very uncomfortable spot close up. He's able to just keep his cross here on main. No one could have actually
really gone right back. Yeah, so
Even with 50 HP though still able to collect two nice skills
And off all of that burst of utility on that original hit crew, I mean really had the way lay inside
There was still the rest of them locked out behind an extra spot
So once they lost their foothold, then they had no choice but to try and run on him.
Clave it a cut, no, he's in trying to hit a side that would be weakened by rotates off,
but the weaponry like you mentioned didn't put him in a good shape.
Hey, through kills though, they're keeping that envy economy pretty honest.
It's not out of control, so could seem not in a terrible position just yet.
I do want to see them attempt to work and near it on some of these rounds though.
start to mix that in the why some pressure there because so far they've really only been
the one moment in which Infiltrator used the ultimate but no one really followed him up there.
They were just literally not in position to follow him up there.
We've seen Envy with more willingness to fight for that part of the map, push all the way
down, control it from just, keep her pretty isolated and we're just straight up pushes
on the extremities.
You know, we haven't seen like a good spirit. Yeah, execute from them. I mean, you know, we haven't seen a split into a fighting ahead of you
Get in the opening pick there and then actually having an advantage in a post plant
crew have been trying to use all these extra spokes to apply mid-presidents, right?
To peel people off the side anchors, but I mean, you might use it. And I mean, just don't care.
Let's get it. Never to fight for it. I've been looking at some of you's walking all the way down to you right now. I'll fight for Wallup.
This could be the moment.
Who's out of age, Benji, ready though?
For B, you rather sorry.
Benji, that's a second for Benji, this is huge.
Andy.
What's in this piece out of the map now?
And they have to play catch up, but who's been left to give the rig race max?
And I've seen the cross.
What a bit wide of white wood, but it's by the steel mill.
That was a fun idea to be here in the saturate.
Oh, turn when the heck's got him?
That's a crazy geothermal find even under hindrance it took a trade to I'm in the shot
It feels like
I mean this should be it do one three doesn't show me a lot
That's crazy. That's all I'm inspired
Spotted out by Benji
Never they came up huge for the team just playing defensively watching that push out of B
Things get so messy for envy in that situation because you have casually walking down mid
But he didn't get the info that there were so many players going into the link and so at that point
They're just getting hinged out of that. You know, be walked down looking vision on a count of crew having Benji left in Maine and
40 of players coming through that link to drop
Funny crew gonna find themselves a bit of a foot-hold in these last couple of rounds
Also heading into the next round with time to work with
I'm going to put myself in a bit of a compromise position so I'll see where they head up going down.
Very deep.
It just has the right position for that kind of aggression.
He mags just doing his former teammate dirty there with the hindered.
It's top kill and link.
Obviously nags were catching a lot of history together.
other and back to the origin days of crew and figuring on the global stage.
I'm sure there's no smaller and a pleasure.
It's still a case that's run up against this crew.
If there's anybody who's going to be powered by Spine, you might be one of them.
And for this again, from crew towards mid, they are trying to control this area of the map and work it more out of that time.
That was called fake TP to threaten that someone could be all the way up top there.
there and as far as envy know it could absolutely be a real teleport just two
smokes on other side of top minute they don't have that info.
Didn't envy it's still pretty dismissive about that mid-petential though I
would straight away pop and double back to i-mate and with the lack of it envy
want to take control elsewhere so if you're seeing this push out into a
main
I hope you have hoping to maybe bait someone into a peek but
engagement
if you're
tested on that swing crew with a firing squad are ready for him
So certainly gonna attempt to empty-cut him and he can then be safe.
I grew about half of the rounds remaining.
Wow, 30-0 in.
The trip coming out from X are just to get the info through a main CUNY players there are.
I mean, he's not seeing a thing they've got to know one of them.
He's definitely one his head towards B right now.
Two rounds ago, I mean, who had that play in a punish poppin' as he tried to cross mid-spoke?
And he want to be quick about this rotate. Now then, the coach was clear.
How much does Rossi want to commit? I mean, four and three.
There he is. Now it says a low-rossy double's back.
Oh, no, things getting a bit messy for envy, not on the same page.
Yeah, but this connect there is another flank in place here.
And again, Benchie is going to be looking for it.
Inspire.
It's an appetite to take a recorder and Benchie is waiting for him.
The next, the potential now shut down.
Poppin' what's a bit of info about Recon.
It's taken out. There's heavy coast presence now for crew.
And they don't look like they're going anywhere.
What's his name?
It's not my spouting, something's first and only.
I'm gonna be, how not really get involved.
I just killed for 90 days to close out the round.
The crew playing to one of the anti-envy wincons,
which is make them into over a aggression and punish.
That's Keznet is dry swinging into three players.
We're fully expecting someone from envy
after they collect that orb so you're just keep going.
That is what envy do.
And listen, we've seen that throughout their entire one
as a team be there undoing at certain points.
And obviously we've also seen them get away with so much because the team's talent has always been so crazy individually.
But you're going to see moments like that where it's punished and you know, listen, they're in the VCT now.
This isn't the Challenger's teams where they can get away with tons.
I mean, this one you'd say they're against crew.
I said a lot of challenges players that are used to playing against them, but having playing.
You know, this is when we're talking about the full scope of teams here, like thinking about their game against MIVR,
M-I-V-R, or stuff like that, you're going to get punished, they're totally different
beast.
So Andy's answer to this implication from Kruelly, could be going up mid in any time
it's been to push off the first they got caught by Benji, then they push up that A-Sight
and cast it runs into two or three players or looking at him.
So in the obviously, it's staffer information, at least they want to get more clarity about
what's happening on the map and he's mid rounds, but getting it, they've exposed themselves
to having some players knocked off.
really nice start here for
Benji, debut in VCT,
just joined up with a crew of Academy
for competing for the last couple of years
that's only 23 challenges.
This looked like a really nice player
and he's falling for the scene,
that's impressive stuff.
It's got some really nice games
that think that's a good game
that gets furious, also.
Between Aster and the KJ site cases.
It's a really nice game plan there.
Now, look at sure, Envy on this round.
Keep your happy to just walk away, even in the lost, just kidding some old side of
crew, so you can have an altered vanage in the next full bar round.
There's so much more insistent this round though about that mid-presence.
They've both sides pretty weak.
Excellent.
Show me what a bit through mid.
I have to get crashed out.
The crew attempted their interest in this, this proposition that NB have offered them
hit a fight for me to maybe get an inch down.
Run quickly and cast it.
I haven't been able to be loud, but ultimately, it's his.
The guy crash out of mid looks like crew happy enough who all they're done with the spike
is an inevitable weird spot.
So a good way to recover, just to refract out to safety from NTA.
And looks like the pivot towards B is going to be coming in, that's Rossi over on the site
with the stinger trying to play in this new little cubby that was last on the
bist was up there to play around as well.
That's come up the cost of the crosshair breaking you to the Vnt8.
That's a fast psychic.
I'm going to be really expecting something towards that A slide.
It's all on Rossie.
She got the crash.
She got the crash.
Challenge and climb to the flat.
She gets one.
And she takes those loose spot.
I'm seconds left.
I'm just the heroine.
I'm the one that's going to use the all-time scene.
And honestly, pretty decent purchase there for Poppin.
Infrared on Bench, you get scratched up a bit,
but now a two-share is in the Guardian.
They're going to do the rule dirty work.
They're going to get some damage off,
extra still has one flash so they can try to pop out behind this wall.
They divide this up, so still not too much to do right now.
Poppin has a feeling about where Bench is going to be hiding in an attack
on the side of the scene, he's like, shawling off the monitor.
I'm gonna get him from up high, that's inspired charming in with the sheriff.
Don't exit there, don't!
And he's just tucked in the side, popping out of where.
Full health brimstone.
Out of the Geals.
No time for inspired intelligence.
Just can't eat.
I just didn't check the corner, and now he's able to stand there, tucked.
Free little kill to close out the round.
Well played from him to get that over the finish line.
Obviously, God, extremely dangerous.
with a crew side, but they get the round win and they got bolts out. So, they're very, very
content to walk away with them. I mean, I respect the attempt from envy, working themselves
into that 3v3, popping nose, where to send the hunters fury off, and that if you got a kill,
it gets the damage, but have to be protected into a 3v2, and that could have been the envy
rounds. Five is per day, man. It means Rossi can just, it has that area.
We have three-fossied on the rope, they could.
This fight makes me go first.
It's behind me, hitting up, trying to fight on coach with no.
Got it, I'm too fast.
Extest gets out, put the jumping top.
There's no point in children's body.
Look, some things are made just right out.
They're not working.
They're not working.
Bob and get out of the top.
The ball goes straight into the surface.
They're going to get leftwards.
And to work connected, they're going to be a great flash from age.
That's the set up of the pocket for poppin' the play from.
Now Benji's on his own quickly, Rossi.
He's going to get over to the site, despite being dead.
Has he been a captain for Benji, and that's not exposing.
Rossi cleans him up.
But man, it's extra for me in the cycles.
The all sorts of problems that clinch is around.
That is a beautiful play from him.
Just across their placement, so steady with the aim for that double swing,
the trade attempt over on that cliff collects too.
Great reflash, so they can keep fighting.
I'm just honestly so comfortable with this agent.
The utility from him just always just flowing perfectly right.
And just the little things, I mean,
He made ready to go off that flash as well so they get the free kill on to nags on the replay
Does this answer excellent round extra start and his campaign often challenges look like a bit of a give a player
I know a lot of your
Just so right
Yeah, definitely a lot of your
now though
Is the sense that it's becoming much more of a little rounded
Professional at this level still has those like crazy tricks up his sleeve that he has from his
Time hitting the bases that a lot of aim other appropriate your rules do not
Like he's I think really yeah become a very well-rounded player especially late last year and just has that extra layer of
Extra would have never done that
Yeah, so would never
Here's the beat drift
Excapping down straight through the it's gonna look how it's trying
He's hearing a problem though!
And he never bought us looking at me and trying to crash it and looking upon me.
Apropos, mouth and will step through that smoke.
No way to fashion himself in.
That needs KESNET and in the fire with it all to do.
Okay, let's just risking it all for the hero play out of that smoke.
And this time,
you know, Chuck's supposed to the last time crew went for this one for one of those
dimensional drift-to-be splits,
worked out perfectly.
All that useless synced up pretty nice.
I'm specifically, it's those two all-sim-getting in.
With the drift and then there's a hunter's fury that comes after
Pops out while the hunter's fury is even just distracting extra up top
That's some nice stuff from crew and a straight forward usage of the ultimate. That's extremely effective on this map
Pretty decent for everybody to get to four rounds here, but the pistol rounds we didn't really talk about it too much
That's gonna come up in the next time a bit of a struggle for crew. They actually managed to force their last series
you know against Fury the three maps are that winning any of them.
Part of their game they're going to have to be concerned about is any people move to the attack side soon but
I'm not going to have to let time be.
Since it's honest Fury that the only attack down Rossy but perfectly lined up to make it a possible for
extra really handle.
I think it's right.
They'll look for us to give him my and this map is definitely attack her side.
Both teams running the same double duelists and NVR pretty good at slamming sites on attack with double duelists
So you know crew have the round advantage right now, but by no means are they out of the woods even if they kid to eight four
NVR team that can just one you over when they start playing attack now Infiltre was faking this telepitalop at this time fully commits
He's inspired where the gun gets an attention out of the outside of the Great Heart.
Overpossed there and MTA just gets ahead of it.
But for Frax on our Poppins, I've got to pick up that weapon at least.
He's placed.
And rotate, though, that's the issue.
If the sniper on Mid is catching the attack,
they'll try to cross.
Poppinoses on the clock, he knows the infiltrator from town.
What have been a concern?
If the tradable emerged to an MTA side.
Now, this relationship, we're just trying to focus on getting into main spamming.
Let's throw the drop and mags catches them out
That flash hit no one in particular definitely not mags it
I'm honestly gonna go for it there already saved
So a bit of prime seat with his poison or but he's mindful of course a big easy to kill up on the side
Is the grab well
Not a tap
I've been so lost he's gonna have to be able to come down and put it in up the tomb time
That's when crew strike yeah, like the idea, but not able to
That's gonna
About one
Those are good sun and a good
Inspire there the corner
I'm crossing near you and you're still in the style, and you need to be some
astrition at against throwing that amount once the hit came in.
Okay, so this time, NB, not considered as a nut on push off the A side.
Because this infiltrator is actually picked up the operator on attack right now for this last round,
and be pushing out of A-main.
Deep recon dart.
Benji, aware that that aggression is coming.
And now the decision for crews really, OK?
Okay, let's hit the gas and give it to the sliver right now
Oh, we're gonna try to give him the critical time to block
No, it is time to grow, it will be a little bit
But that's all it's living
It means they're ending though they can cross me
I think we're the bit of a pace
Trying to decide the time
It's not very hot, it's about to double the gear
But out of the drift it's infiltrator with a shorty
Not a whole lot of exit could say about that
Still no part just here
To end even at that time to get in position
I'm in super high for love
You know, either bingy or someone sitting there in crow's nest
It's with Benji, outside of the pipe for now, but honestly, not opportunity for a light flank.
Great kill from Nags, who absolutely scared to try and get that spike down right now, then they know that they're getting flanked.
That can be someone entrenched in sight, and they do remove.
They're rotating off.
Yeah, I want to push you in further.
I mean, let's get it.
Look at Benji on the bottom of the map as well.
This could get so awkward.
As far as primed to see this cross.
I just play any game.
No MTA too quick of the trigger figure now pop and has to quickly get out
For the potential of the pizza that you notice a bingey still the bottom of the map
Not looking good for envy here to round out this first half. I think the penji said just out of range to actually hear pop and's rotate
What now?
No, oh my god, I mean just jump straight into him and still leave it doesn't get any easy
Trying to light up the side he has the top get me up in hand the flick would have been
I'm gonna see it.
And that's it.
It gets a second part of the apple.
And it bows it up.
That's just turning it up right now.
Slow, slow.
Five deaths.
Good job.
Besties looked in a map.
So far and crews campaign here and kick off.
And I do think that is a win-con to some level for this team.
Especially for you.
You go further in the series and he's playing a lot of chamber.
A bit slow to start against Vira.
What if he comes to life?
I can get crew over the finish line.
By all accounts pretty solid first half here from crew working them up effectively and
be only walking away with those full rounds that like to start the front foot of the pistol
in the second half which would be joining us this afternoon.
Can I help you?
Here's the bill from the dealership where I got my car and I'd like you to beat it with a
better deal on one of these fine cars.
Not how it works.
Guess you're not as cool as Verizon.
Bringing your AT&T or T mobile bill for a better deal today.
3 rounds, strung together by crew makes for a decisive end to that first half.
It's 8-4 on a base, but their opponents don't forget, Arendee.
The kind of team when they get to go on your attack side is always the risk that they will run
You down and left to play fast. They've got Kezna Unchained told to basically do whatever it likes
Just go to town on his opponents
So what they can do the pistol being crucial at a pain point for crew last week
I'd like to pick up their second of this map and the officer that a piece could be increased even further than from was
Yeah, no one we saw them playing a bit the last couple of times with the switch from I so to Wally
way, because it should be going insane here, so immediate pressure from both.
What's this B-side?
Definitely going to make crew feel like the hit is coming in.
You look that A players are already gone.
Oh my god.
They're safe.
Black T-P back to A-Main.
They're cooking right there.
I hope the site is so free.
What a sick pistol.
Really nice.
They put together.
This is going to give in the massive advantage now.
It's like the fourth head, even though it's security.
Get that tower presence? Look at D-Pop and then get her ready.
And now they just actually have to kill everyone.
Kesnit.
And some danger here.
Oh my god.
It's my first win this second.
I mean, is he ever really in danger with the mechanical level he's at?
Nah, no no.
That's two plies plucked away from the cruise right now.
Just plucked over this tower.
Play him to you.
Just have to run, pop him down.
It's time to be brought over the snake bite.
Extra waiting for a challenge.
And then we're looking where they need to.
Inspire the Lord have much to see which is the long-light flank of after rotating to the action in the second.
Can I sleep on for him, Ross, who is playing off?
Excess swinging out of that smoke of top as well.
Free easy kills, connecting some nice headshots there.
This was just a sick pistol round strat to break out.
You just immediately, I mean, look at it at any of that.
You see, three players aiming both through this B in this meta.
Yeah, think they're just hitting B when the way like you are going there.
And fake plant into TP away.
That is so funny.
That rewind button hits slow easily by envy.
Something crews gotta be mindful of now.
X is already got himself up to a martial.
Big crew stack on A.
I'm just a patient going to envy the proper towards this meat side of the place.
I just want to see what's going on and well, this is for players, so the time for me, they're
sure what it's going to be, so he's doing some action, after he starts being served with
the benching, now needs to hold his ground and buy some time.
Now I'll drone in, catch that unaware, the bench is lurking below.
All of this now, chooses his time to swing, but catch that does pay attention to the
And now if the map we got, we're going to call the quicksand for here now.
Last player standing.
This one is done.
One player down, but it was just the Marshall.
So it doesn't really matter easy around here for through.
It's almost a rather handy when you're on attack.
And you win the pistol.
And the other team just throw themselves off the map almost inevitably around to.
Possibly the easiest round to balance is winning the pistol round.
Around to after winning the pistol on the pistol.
Take a, uh, might be the easiest round to win in Valorant period.
Pistol low on the hardest, then, uh, credit to MVP, because they made sure they had
a setup that would give them a big edge.
Okay.
Be presence, but always the potential to call a cancel on this hit, going through.
Trying to get a different self-adrew to the scape, and Jesus did.
I get down to constant.
No worries.
I'm still teased up on account of that drone.
I don't know if I caught him with a sack tray there.
I'm not sure if I'm vulnerable to that.
Now I'm able to get on top of the box and cruise so I'm gonna ride it so I'm like absolute ants.
Now you still have to wait and see if I can win it on the road.
And I found B.
But I'm not worried.
Last player up for a video to your full dog to work with now.
As far as you know, I'm not really particularly thankful.
At the spite of the info that was drawn from Pop and Got.
The anchors infiltrated, they were able to navigate the U2 well and reposition themselves for the fight.
I'm trying to just get him up top quickly, that was nice.
If he put try to doesn't stay, he's sort of tucked in there at close to you, perhaps around,
goes up the top.
That's play a coverage from the rest of that B-side.
I'm just wasn't the full full by for envy on their bonus round, but if we're going to see
a crew that can walk up in the lead deal, we're fast, we're going to be exact like that
on the sides.
That can be absolutely enough for them to close out this game on defense to the puffer side
Yeah, it's like a fast pace is empty can be that really discipline anchoring can unravel them so that it gets to EG
Yeah, it's right there. I think it's on a really weird little off-angle
Just slightly elevated on the first part of that jump-up box holding the angle and then yeah, and full share goes back over top
Great anchoring from the two of them
a bit more of a default vibe or least some mid-pressants down from maybe.
Round to start a little slower.
The Viper will over the base side is going to keep crew interested for the most part.
Always a lurking threat.
Can Rossy be?
No, Keznan has managed to get pretty close to getting the conversion paths.
They could try to surround the world get them the orbs maybe thrown the plant
I will see if that's something they opt for
But we can certainly see it be a factor on this round again Benji and we'll try to let's see if they can repeat the success
Against the bonus now against even better weapon rey occurring this site. It's right that is if they fully commit
Infiltrated could get out
Benchies, what such a nuisance!
Nice count, B!
Emerging from the shadows on the sides, I'm gonna find two!
It's the slow things up here for envy!
And this is Keznan now, we're planning on to have the conversion paths to try to close out this round.
The game plan looks pretty similar as it's being telegraphed now.
And if this push comes in from Link on Mask, Keznan is gonna be rewarded for this conversion paths.
And that's it.
I'll circle back around a bit higher, and here's the path now, and quickness.
I'm glad you're TA on the open though. That's that finds he's from upper
Spire concerned about a not really knowing where the brim is like into a merge from they've actually
Spire can salvage now I've against god
Conforged
Managed to it again wait
He's good
No
I think he's good, but that's pretty cool.
I just think he's nice.
I think he was sweating for a second of the way.
Did I get this?
Oh, all good. All good.
But not to, again, some pretty solid anchoring there.
Benji playing in that smoke.
It was to collect a couple of those first kills.
I've really that timing.
It's just unfortunate for his fire.
Not seeing nags on that cross, upper.
Yeah, right there.
And then turns around after nags all the way.
all the way pushed over.
We're looking good on this defense.
Winning with the convergent past being used as well.
Everything's going their way at the moment.
That really no interesting try to play for any retake setup.
Spy having both the astronaut and the brim.
To facilitate for that, they want to have those two plays in the site.
They at least trade 252.
Max, they're opting to split from his team, take upper,
snuck past and spy at the recipe for a
big dub and now maybe it was singing here in V starting to languish a little bit
this is getting uncomfortable trying to slam it down on that b-side a couple rounds
consecutively not funny success on either occasion now likely having to deal with the
threat is outlaw yeah listen i gotta tell you i'm if i'm going up against crew right now
i do now want to be hitting the site with the infiltrator and then you they look like
the two best players two best shooters uncrew in the server i want to be trying to fight
Some other players also are, these guys have been really difficult on that site so far.
So, I'd be obviously not with enough cash to get a buy on this round.
You know, hoping that they can leave it with eggs or having a dimensional drift that would be a consolation prize.
Okay, I'm going in numbers, but two stingers of it will be outside our inv.
It's going to be a big hit.
It's going to be a big hit.
It's going to be a big hit.
It's going to be a big hit.
It's going to be a big hit.
That's not so much.
Because it has to be a front-goer.
It's going to have to stop the sun.
It's going to work here.
It's going to be a big hit.
It's going to slow.
I would have want to leave the boy for the time being.
But he's bleeding out.
There's some danger here.
I'll try to get a really good hit.
I'm really going on to answer.
I've been used to fight forward because I absolutely can come down.
He trains them in ahead of the game with his dimensional drift.
the snake bite going to throw the things out for the retake out of security.
I'm back.
Eventually, testing the noise handled.
Infiltrated was a lot.
Just a poor whole gear frame, get a procreutor trying to get it from Tossin.
Shut him down, that was dangerous.
Sfinger did some work, but now in spyout, the wrong side of his cosmic divide,
had to guess when there might be a spiked deep use attempts, and he was a little earlier
than the trigger.
Oh, oh my god!
The box was up here, got us pretty blind as well.
Not in front of the gate, couldn't stop him,
surely to try, just to tap what you had done in its fire!
But it was a himfiat of a dire situation.
That is unbelievable.
Last shot with a share of nothing left to disparate with this stinger.
Opportunity for a one shot before the diffuse comes in.
The governor was on the spike, but when inspired started shooting,
he got scared and got off.
We thought he was about to get killed, so we didn't get it to half or earlier.
Crazy.
Crazy.
I'll look at the shift economically.
This should be on all accounts of pretty free rounds for Enveal.
Unless things go completely awry because they are going to get her next.
There you go.
I'll cut it all the way.
I can't tell you how really that will be.
I can't tell you how really that will be.
Brim stuck up there like eating mud.
And they're trying to back away.
It gives extreme blow.
I'm a strong wiggle of all over.
Next to blows and I'm hot air to deal with him.
And that feels like I've been really gossiping.
Wind in their sails.
After that clutch round came through.
I'm so nervous.
I'm so nervous.
I'm so nervous.
I see what's lifting the whole time.
So those three.
He's at around in the hands of people, try to earn your council on a Ben V. Now I'm back to a two round game
caught on the jump up. I feel like you can even see them in the cams right now that suddenly the mood of his shifted
I feel like you see in some more smiles. They're feeling good
I mean, why do you need them?
But you get up to a decent sign to stop at the wind the pistol things full of bottom as couple of big hits but now
It's not in the hood together. Yeah, they've got three very good
to ultimate as well heading into this by-round.
We might be looking back at that inspired clutches
the pivotal moment in this game.
I mean, it wasn't an exclusive moment.
So it was an economic swing round, so at least again,
the M.P. that extra pluffer.
All right, so we have an ace for coming through right now,
from M.P. Hunter's Street, the ultimate for the problem.
A classic, all there's a split from its fire and vents.
It's a joint ice-yering spying, getting a little worse down in your towers.
Tying it's getting up a whole lot of the guy!
He's full of buff and bluster!
But eventually it's inspired at all the classic game you can drop done
And he's still about
Somining today's gonna be a stretch coming on the side of the wall
He's pretty plunt
You can make it an easy win here for any father. They are feeling themselves now enough of going be
What's done with energy and infiltration just we're slamming a we're deleting these anchors so fast on this blitz just instant no hesitation
And the National Drift into Hunter's Fury combo.
Run!
Right through Ben is inspired.
And then late here, there's that moment right there where MTA
Offs to take a fight.
It's just right.
I'm like, uh...
Instead of...
I mean, that's a good one.
MTA just classic, but if MTA,
you know, maybe regretting not going to the convergent pass,
it was a three on four there, but at least, you know,
Look, we know because we're seeing the minimap that he would have probably gotten like minimum two players, but
if you want to the kill extra first and then maybe feel more comfortable. Okay, now it's a three on three. I will use my ult for sure rather than three on four, but
Yeah, goes down. Eko again for crew. My name's been adjustment here from crew
about how they deal with inspiring getting up mid so effortlessly. They got a challenge at Tau's spot in the first place.
Yeah, and Spire is definitely excellent at finding his timings on, you know, I will say like work positions that and that that's not so much of a
Lork isn't as just like that solo split but still, you know, he gets a quick good timing there to fight.
We haven't really seen any of the classic in Spire round the world, the Lork flanks in a post plant yet, but I mean he was
of men is doing that all the last year.
And even though it always felt like you knew it was coming,
they still would not be able to catch it,
diving because they would be so bizarre.
It just so out of the norm of what a central lurking would do,
but...
And maybe it's not been as extreme as that,
but inspired has been in his element,
especially in the second half.
This one, a little bit of a slow around,
but definitely high presence towards this B-side that can attest to the game.
Yeah, no, like, alright, let's go be on this round where they have that weapons just mix it up here just to the round to
Go back to that fight, it's not simple, try to get the first button
Right, and greedy fashion doesn't want to get back done
Benji is law-playing in this debula
He's in real nuisance giving very cry one blind a side vibes
Oh, I mean they should definitely go there now. It's getting uh
You know, we're like a pullback.
They have it.
They don't.
Ah, actually.
For what you're crazy for those.
We see it.
But all the extra turns is back on him.
That's quite costly.
Misconception for envy.
I'm not going to solve an explosion.
And why doesn't he come here?
I'm coming apparently.
And then he puts it on.
One way or another.
I mean, I'm sorry.
What?
It just happened there.
MTA gets the conversion path off.
Then G is just in that smoke.
For years, they're not like stupid. I like they knew he was there when you were watching Rossies point of view
And he's played in that smoke before and killed multiple players. I think I've got two rounds
Still catching out and then yeah, what what it's going on there inspired me like I don't know calling something of the time
You just did not hear double jumping around behind
Big thrifty ran in for crew get their noses back out in front of this game
And another beast like catastrophe perendi is definitely gonna have them shell shot the stops that envy momentum
That was building so quickly in an instant
This time that was fun. I mean what's the work that made crew are just saying yeah, they're going back
Surely they're going back there
That's the right call
It's very true!
It's why I thought it brings it down, but the damage is already done.
And we are really trying to salvage up onto the site.
It's here!
There are things fired at me and the pieces.
That's my exacter.
They've become a back together.
12 to 9.
Crew on the precipice of taking.
Another beast picked by envy.
What a mental play from the current collegiate player, by the way.
Something in for this.
Or if we talking with the chunk, there was a hinder that came to, I think, uh,
I thought, well, I couldn't tell, I don't know, that was an answer, but, yeah, just the hinder timing.
I mean, who expects in that moment of the hit to have your George on top of that crazy?
And now for the final round to try to close things out, people turn their brains in the arm,
did the sum of last round of the first half.
I can't be true like surely we're going there. I didn't read a bunch of players there, but
At least one now wrote that in your way
Talk about infiltrating getting revenge for challenges
As Diri does catch the cross and the plight it was chasing their coming
Flash down the tramwork is way through
One of the specials except, and it's on poppin'
Through that smoke you'll have to come one way or another
BANG, it's infiltrator, in the math win
Treat for him on the round, insane!
Back to back three Cays
Put's Karol talk, stoning, stoning game from infiltrator
And still running coaches of GMs in the offices
And who are thinking, why don't we pick up infiltrator
Should we give him a shot?
They might be regretting not doing that
And the fact that he's still in challenges right now
after putting up a performance like that.
And they did the same.
That is a sheepish looking pop and ride now.
They envy completely believed what happened on the map.
They were scared off of even that beast side.
Because Banging in the infiltrate,
back to back, unraveled them round after round, after round.
They're showing for a young,
waiting for a beautiful version of stars.
I'm really going to press it.
And again, now we moved to Pearl.
Let's cruise my pick.
I mean, this was a crazy star for crew
or shooting better than anything right now.
There's really only pop in there.
We saw from the every side who's getting some multi kills in the mix.
It's all about infiltrator and Benji as well.
Respect to him both IGL and end putting up some good numbers
and anchoring effectively over on that B-side.
Get yourselves a bevy.
We'll be back at Mr. Beda and we'll see you guys
stepping right down that one and then we'll be on the paralleling no time.
...
...
Hold the smokes! You don't look so great, boss!
Tell me about the real inferno down here.
I've heard about it.
Here, try a red book! It's double-ishly great.
Red Bull?
Ooh, that tastes heavenly.
Wait a minute.
Watch there.
Oh, yeah.
I forgot about that.
Wings?
Wings?
I can't have wings.
Got a mic for this, isn't it?
Red Bull gives you wings.
What a match.
What a nail, Vider.
Now you took the dub.
We got to see you picking brim on a this.
That's an unusual look.
Can you maybe give me a sales pitch for this?
Yes.
We put the same reason because it's not a new one.
We knew that we could learn how to play.
We played the post-plan in a very different way.
in Bringston, me one of the ones who are in Europe
because they are a lot of people.
So that's what we want to learn.
That's how our place is.
That's how we can do it.
Yeah, so that is actually the reason we decided to go with Bringston
is because it's not a usual pick.
And it's actually being used right now in Europe a lot.
And so it's a really strong post-plant with Brington.
And that's why we decided to use them.
I'm excited to see what you cook up on the next map.
Good luck.
We're going to the next week of time under their belt cruise substitute squad gets the win
on map one of their series over NV.
Let's jump right in to start talking about that.
I think the big question going into it was how strange this brimstone was and I just kind
of want to get impressions on that compositional choice.
I mean, I think like the coach is talking about there in a post plant if you're able
set up without that Molly lineup or an old very strong on the attack side. I do think we saw some of the
weaknesses on defense. What it was trying to lock down that A site and you had all of a sudden
uh, and be punishing that round after round, but uh, eventually the the solve came just fight
forward in a main and they get themselves the one. Yeah, I'm talking about fighting for it.
And as well though earlier on in this game, it was ending going for some of that aggression. We
know them for Emily, but create a pretty good job of shutting that down. Yeah, I mean, as you can see in
the fourth round here, we actually saw it work out at NBC's favorite, and I think that was
just kind of reassurance for crew, like, okay, they are going to keep to their somewhere
in place, so, you know, contacting up on those pushes, and they started punching that,
and tackling up that, they let ending make the first moves on their defensive half, and
then kind of finishing out the rest of the round around that.
I feel like, too, with crew, they were able to really adapt, really quickly like you're
saying, but they were also able to kind of beat them at their own game.
I felt like they saw through what envy was doing.
They knew that no matter what they did,
they knew they were going to go towards A with that silver dart.
They knew they were going to head towards B if there wasn't any pressure towards A.
So if I'm like, we're kind of looking for more from envy,
we need more pressure around the map.
Now we were looking at the Eurohead to head as well,
going into this game and I think it might come as a bit of surprise
just to how well infiltrator performed here.
Yeah, really solid stuff out from him.
I was very happy to see that level of impact in the game,
especially like seizing the rain so early on in particular even on this pistol
round flying forward getting arrested in the post-time to the tax
side of you. I think he did such a good job at not being scared to just be
super annoying like getting through behind the flints making sure that he
is using his health and this usually for really good job and this thing jumping
across into a main as soon as they heard that you till towards that
that they didn't even knew that they were going to be there just jumping out and just being a boss.
Like, I mean, yeah, just the way he was also entering that B side taking those aggressive
peats, that's really beating and be at their own game.
Like, ending was caught off guard so many times just by all these hero plays that we saw
crew have last, last, last best of three, but they brought it out in a different way and worked out.
Yeah. But you contrast that to Eggster, who again had a tough game, couldn't really find that
impact. We look ahead to map two of this series Christie and I think you really have to look at
him to help lead the bounce back for ending.
I mean, yeah, you're such a, such a big part of the team in the past.
You definitely need that, especially coming up maps like Pearl and Abyss, big maps, or the,
or the Yoruz got to have a major impact for the team.
I think that is the difference.
And that was the thing we were highlighting at the top of the show, right?
Or we want to see some bounce backs out of the extra.
Yeah, I feel like we wanted to see something more creative, a little bit different path
thing, lots of different utel from the rest of the team, as well, to set him up for
a success.
But we didn't really see it, felt like he fell into his old ways.
I mean, I'm curious if you guys think crew is going to come up with a new different
comp.
Because they won, Pearl, last night played it.
But do you think they're going to come up with a crazy comp, like, brim again?
With what we do to work on it, I don't think so.
They've got a brim on it.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I feel like that is a map that is, it's maybe a little hard to work and get
me again.
But I mean, for instance, you know, what a big opportunity this is though for crew
and the like coming in with three players from an Academy roster.
Two players from a tier two team.
I didn't even get a shot into your one.
So they just gave away from taking this win here.
Yeah, I think it would be interesting.
Like, obviously it's an unfortunate situation
for the main car roster.
But it's great to see these two players
having a chance to shine in the spotlight
and show that you know what?
We are capable of kind of taking down
the big tier one teams.
Like we have the individual skill.
Obviously they didn't have enough time
to kind of prep everything out.
But I think literally matched by match day by day.
We are seeing them come together more as it's a little bit team.
But if envy can't get the weight around,
you turn to them and you look at this is what could be a really big discipline
into their start of their campaign into your work. I think this would be the biggest
disappointment because you you look to team like 2G last year that came in and
based off against the sub-curious quad at the start of the year. Who's that now?
That was just started the nightmare for us. No but I think there's there's a lot
to prove for these teams that promote into the league and obviously it's like a double
edged sword because you look at it's like or you're playing a substitute roster.
That's great news. That should be a match just for us to win but now of a sudden
That's the match you're supposed to win now you're trailing down 01. That is a heavy heavy loss
if you can not come back in the series. Yeah they definitely have to walk in put their heads in the
game but I also think too with their two substitutes did they kind of fall apart where they just
tried to slot them in into that game plan that they already had that play stuff that they really
built around that year or do you think that it's going to be like genuinely that creativity is
going to come out on Pearl we haven't seen them do anything too crazy but maybe around
that you're really, they have something new to show us.
I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if they did try it like a new approach, right?
They had really close matches on that map specifically,
but I think it really comes down to the fact that the way that cruise
plane against a team like NBA, it's throwing them off hard.
Whereas normally, NBA's the team with the playstyle,
that is throwing other teams off.
Yeah, well, let's get a word from the coach of NBA,
stuttercy, what he has to say, go into this crucial map, too.
You know, contacting up and aggression, that's the name of the game for Andy, but crew
was definitely capitalizing on that on map one. What did they do to make it so difficult for
you in the team to get value out of that approach? I mean, crew out of good game plan,
we didn't stick to our game plan, so that's it. Simply close that. That's a block in a
thick match. Well, he's already a two-one coach with the answers. Not a lot to be taken there.
Let's continue this conversation about envy, though.
What are the keys we're looking at?
Pearl, this is a map that was great for them
in the year two that they've always been confident on.
What do you want to see different on map two here?
I mean, you heard of right there.
They just got to play their game, Mimi.
Thank you.
Wow, I'm present for a game.
Yeah, I think crew just played their game, Mimi.
Wow.
You guys are so brave, Emily, please.
No, okay.
I think I don't know if I fully agree with you.
OK, I'll be right there.
I'm trying to help her out here, okay?
Telling what you're doing.
I'm trying to help her out here, okay?
Something like if it's not working,
there's only so much you can do if you keep repeating the same things.
They found us in Social Words A, right?
But crew was able to adapt and give that aggression there too.
And it shut them down.
And we're going to need to see something like that,
especially on a Muffley Pearl.
Yeah, well, we're ready to get into it.
Pro, now, two of this series,
and crew's substitute roster with the chance to take a series win.
We'll find out if they can do it after this.
Some guys calling themselves it.
I'm gonna make a country for you.
Get in my tent.
I've read work.
I'll fix it.
I can't do that.
If we move...
I'll do that.
No way out you scared, tell me now
I'll be in a fight then I'll be in no way out
No way out, no way out
No way out to a cursed lord
I'm going to kill you.
I'm going to kill you.
I'm going to kill you.
Flashes of brilliance from envy on their map pick of a beast, but honestly not in enough
volume to give them a winning result their crew.
Honestly, look like they're shooting better than their shooters themselves on that first map.
Here we go about to this is Pearl. This is crew of these as a pick.
And once again, they are going to be bringing this new audience.
And if we try to showcase extensively right before our very eyes wired in challenges.
And in their debut map, up against Furia, this is the one that they want.
And now that's the three series.
Envy I was so curious about the calm was going to be heading into this map because last year in
Challengers they were mental on Pearl. They were winning it a lot. They were good here and
Kane zero the duel is at the time was playing whatever he was running found a rain on next map.
Inspired here goes for crazy lyrts. He loves to try to get through that mid-link go through
They are maniacs on this map, historically, which is, I think it's kind of in beyond
like most maps.
Oh, I think we're being real, but I think this one in particular, maybe it's just
because the grain of stands out as a little bland rain, guys.
That's pretty unwitting.
That's crazy.
Black guys, take a sip of your moustache, I match up by the tea every time
you say in challenges because it's not going to fall.
There's a lot of hype in this, it doesn't listen, buddy.
There's a lot of challenge in this game as well.
Not only of course in America but also the Academy level in the last half of the region
That aside up to the piece that we go it would crew start on the attack side
Obviously also the last mystery and still just hasn't it first nice a crazy match up
Just thinking all the way back when those guys were playing on the world stage together and you know made crew a household
Main globally, but
Let's see what they can do on this pistol round going for the A split poppin up close in main
This is a great position. How to tell the scope where no one ever clears it and be
It's a
Does take if at 10 years for nags it to turn around
So
It's not the boss fire of the time he turns 180 the rest of those should have the same excuse
And then keep falling and in the were waiting and hungry they will straighten the poppin
But if you're ever anchoring that site, just stand in that corner by the smoke.
It's so free every time, like 90% success rate.
I swear, I wouldn't want to play as POV and that's what they're at.
Everyone is so focused forward.
There was a flash to came here.
I think it's for Exor as well to supplement that, which was a team flash, but still had
everyone distracted.
So, you know, no worries.
Let me start things off on the right foot,
and hopefully for crew for a familiar feeling
of losing this one.
Yeah, so they've lost the majority of them so far,
and check off.
Just the one, one so far.
Early days get, but!
One more strike for either of these teams,
and they go down to the lowest of low brackets.
Well, they will be out of second chances
that chances pardon me.
See what Kessen it can get accomplished on this neon.
Maybe even taking inspiration from crew
there's success in the first game watching Infiltrator on that in the end.
Find a pretty sizable amount of impact.
I'm sorry.
It's a bit more adamant about watching the approach there towards us.
It's going to come in from my nose, through me.
Checked up.
Checked up there.
He'll die.
He'll die.
I'm going down mid.
We have an advantage.
Rearing it.
If they could walk you behind this fall.
Let me know for the time being,
It's crew trimmed down to just one bingie.
Pop in the right in time to help Keznett, who's the only envy player ever in real
bingie with that round when he's fighting in the link, good support from the NVIGL.
Flawless round, cleaning that up with ease.
Now let's see what they try to do on the bonus.
It certainly wouldn't be surprised to see this NV team go for a heavy extremity push here.
Maybe something adventurous in mid, throwing down the Nebula top.
Looks like time for the B, dualist aggro maneuver.
And it looks like they're going to get the fight that they desire.
On the bonus team, it's still...
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
There we go again.
Try the MTA.
This is smart to cover the advance.
The big unit gets one before departing.
Fight down.
This is the B.
It's be clear on that and be run on up on the big side.
That is genuinely and insane play from Andy.
That's so cool.
Just the speed that Kesson is able to get up there playing
and y'all and the timing off that recon was so perfect.
I mean, that is the fastest B agro play on the offense.
You could possibly hook up and it happens
in a very quick instant.
I mean, that's just like a timing.
You really don't expect when you're
getting out of B-Man.
And most of the time, a team will be, like,
posture up around pillar going for some swings while you're trying
to, you know, get on the cross.
Maybe when the nebula drops for the cross, something like that.
But to just get up into the cross smoke with this thinger,
pulling off the incidentry car and as crazy work,
a really cool blur.
Next set of courses invested in keeping this rifle,
but so much of the madness.
Ready to deny it from him.
And he'll hear it.
Pin a pattern of little footsteps is envy start to close in that
Way with their next deck 10 out for the dream and 17 seconds try and stay alive. You'll scurry away
Now just on the run and it should be
10 seconds left one hero right
In this next round
Ideal
Yeah, I mean that happens so quickly that push up be but it's an impact that's gonna
Echo through the next couple of rounds.
Cruise first shot it, properly buying up his immediately
extinguished by this, and this is where he caught
set up his spectacular.
That is crazy.
And with the smoke in Maine, so the players that are pushed
out are disconnected from the rest of the pack who are,
you know, a little bit further back.
They can't support them.
That works perfectly.
I'm sorry.
We've right into the timeout.
That's straight away.
Yes, I'm not mad at it though this early time out.
Calm things down after you've just got, I mean, obliterated on that anti-bodies.
Let's take a deep breath. Obviously not the ideal start.
I just prepare for the next buy-round that's going to come up.
Despite the rounds and having different levels of, you know,
we're going to be able to crew, we've seen a little bit of everything from them so far.
They try that eight-hitter course pop-in-set in the corner, they don't acknowledge it.
Try and work mid and they run into Kesin' in, who's been covered.
And we'll know what happened on the ill-fated push towards the V-side.
So we got zero from three.
I'm different approaches on Pell so far from Crew V-Zip.
Yeah, I think possible right now that for Crew, they're going to think about getting
Benji two more orbs, so he has the Cosmic Divide, and then they can use that in the
buy around and have a set strap based around that.
If when they get there, that's a possibility.
There's only one ult really on the table right now.
That's popping with that much of security.
Got to say, popping is getting the best player right now for envy.
He's been there a best shooter up until this point.
He was getting some nice multi kills just straight up fighting on of this.
It's a couple of eyes out with the choice of them.
And we are not playing around.
They are just immediately trying to swing four players potentially.
Four players max the fight in mid.
Well, they relax.
And Governor is the sort of...
An initiator here playing solo towards I did throw a prowler in.
That's not really done too much more than get NV's mild attention there.
As the enemy has a big swing in the eye, huge crimson, to every punish him!
Franty VMTA claims to be now crew can excel right.
This fire is going to be a little bit more.
A safe about this, but the planet has passed the captain's intention.
Hanna's fearing will be thrown in.
Inspired to cade out now, those players are on the cross-knows.
He's been spotted out.
Inspired and spills like he needs to live to get out,
ross and once the fire in a moment to get to a secret,
actually they'll fire the fire.
What's happening?
No plan at all for crew.
Missing that little bit of extra bank.
And the sub plan I guess of getting Benji in the position to have a cosmic
device still in play, but he was never going to plan.
He's somewhere covering up for a very aggressive moment there from kids that
on two occasion daily the round.
I mean, that's such a wide swimmer to go for.
Such a wide swimmer, no info, so so many players and goes down.
It's a recovery from envy, but you're walking away happy to get a couple kills and they get out the only ultimate that was available to you, N-V.
And now look at a governor as well, just one away from getting the nightfall.
I mean, N-V are descending on this defense right now.
They're not going to give him an over-free on the side of the map.
And look, you don't have any prior info as to how N-V are going to...
But okay, Ben, you want for one, that's not bad.
That's acceptable, but lacking smokes trying to get in to be is going to be very tough and obviously also lacking now the
Cosmic device you could have been a little bit
I'm gonna get in all though
So nightfall is online look at the amount of angles if you guys are exposed to try to get into this piece
And then I never think twice about it
Yeah, I'll ultimately hear it's like what if I have to get in a fast lane from Infiltrator to try to obscure some angles
so they can get into a site.
Yeah, likely playing off his failed ultimate.
Odin from poppin is he's slowly winning his way towards flowers.
Threatening that there could be some pressure towards Arn and going into Link where there's really only one two angles to focus on it.
Any given time and other split from any location they could use.
The hardest point.
And he's going to fall under the big site.
Crew left the ropes and took the last one minute.
And he went down the wall now.
Exit wants to let life, but he goes infiltrator.
And I go extra and inspire.
Fight planted.
Governor gets the plant.
Showed off, lost in the load.
If he doesn't spare, we'll account for him.
He's even up the numbers.
They'll cross the on the way in.
Outro and his going to spawn in.
We'll try to inside holes.
They'll eliminate one.
I understand.
It's variable.
And not that an exit.
Crucial one view wants to win.
All the pressure on rocks.
I'm gonna say, next has been shooting to them in. We are rolling back the years and he really is that winning that first one V1 was crucial from mags straight up fight against
The problem has been odd point for Ending, but not enough.
In the trailer, huge little two piece here, and it's inspired me to be trying to follow up after X is down.
Hey!
Rusty made an interesting note.
I was able to make an aim correction and actually killed that player as he made his way onto the site.
Yeah, I liked Ending's calling there for the team's path and after he goes down and they're lacking the smokes.
I think they played that pretty often when it was well done.
This time we got up for the catering you to limit it
It's a crew-coldly the options open so simply
Look at this so fast into the link smoke down
Into that beside connector rather and they may get seem like they could be all the way up into Link
So now pivot right back into art. I mean at this point, and we could feel like the these attackers are in so many different parts of the map
Yeah, they're starved for some info outside of Mn that alarm button being blown up here
Okay, look where Kazuna has to play from now.
There's just too many lanes from the covering.
We'd love to probably just sit and watch, ah,
at least Eggsters push up on B.
But these players in A-Man are going to feel
some serious pressure of the execute comes in on their side.
Having to watch two separate different angles.
There's a walk down, ah, happening right now.
I'm not too far yet.
So now those A-Man players at Fognv and Riscuffing Pink.
And I'd never take you to meet from Kazuna,
but you're gonna go if you're gonna call the Kazuna.
Don't show for me on the side
Hoping with the Odin. I've got to stand full
The way he's over feeling to swoop in a claim the floor everyone's just had to crazy transfers. I guess
sick from casin it
then pop and just tracking the slide with the Odin is pretty smooth as well
Everything coming up and be just like individual. Yeah, you're right
Raw sedation isolate a fight for Wednesdays.
Krillin the case that he like tests that caused me to fight early
doesn't fully commit positive until he knows his boys and they made a taken contact.
Yes, you are not playing around right now.
Come here and quarrel.
We're going to off the gas.
Every round they're pushing out somewhere with multiple players immediately into mid this time.
And now fast rotate right back towards A is extra for a second consecutive round just out on hand all the way up B
This is so
The kids that defense sides you've always sort of seen this he kind of pulls a couple plays around with him and they always
Swarming you should do this with crew on I spots especially for them back and forth try to be very dynamic
It's time they've landed back towards an A side. It's crew of really slow things down. It's just a share of five here
And if this hit does come in on a
These guys should be getting absolutely true to pop
By this old and you would then go on waiting for the re-concness or lossing
I didn't from Rossy get the thing now
To make sure
Is it ever smoke up that eight-lane or
Correcting
In the side Rossy doesn't have to wait for
They're trying to speculate
Spray and spare into the side itself
Fight down
One car will show from Benji. They're not just this. We'll be all time. They'll plug it though
That's this
Down afooting the fighting is getting thick and fast here
If you try to bounce off it is sure of the one Rossi dangerous game
Free play is grouped up over all that upside
And then look at the game
The spot is going down the open onite
I've got to come back to collect it
And Rossi will stay tuned
Let's make sure we're in the extra extreme white
In moments like this
This dynamic skirmish envy able to win it out
Spide going loose really hurts cruisability to bounce off
The thing is really did become a mess there
And Poppin decided to not spam, throughout the Recombed Rossi, not really with an opportunity to fight too effectively with the multiple smokes that were down, and when the ping came out, yet a shorty in hand instead, some high shots from crew players.
But NVR able to stabilize and maintain a sizable lead at this point, and they're heading into around with the potential trip for a re-take.
Cosmic to fly for a retake. Poppin might have a hunter's fury for a retake. This is going to be extremely tough for the crew to manage.
Claring that turret early. Make sure there's nobody crew can have peace of mind about whether or not
envy pushed into plaza.
These are weeks I've got. Now being bolstered by Axta, who returns and through me poppin is very quickly
trying to at least get in position.
I'd like this for a minute.
I'd like this for a minute.
It's off angle to predict for crew.
Infiltrator exposed to it.
I spot MTA for three.
Autistic Gold from war.
Does he go for the repeat?
Oh, there's an adron.
Could play off that note.
Chaps!
Rusty waiting for them.
Puzzle to end it.
For the very beginning of the round.
Crunked the sight to test the waters to.
Transition across the map through there.
What a second shot, on to Rossi, hold on let's see if he can cook up something or
This guy would be played on crew was kind of forced into their flexor hole, but he'd always been a dualist
People knew that
Flex those very muscles
Exilo, what's the period on the sentence?
And that's envy six round the head
It's hopeless to win that
Tight little angle fight against an op, but no shots from into your regardless
Look at what at this point envy they are just they're in the walls. They are everywhere. They are still taking full liberties on every single round pushing
Really early if they're untested and around like that just taking more space and catching it is all the way damn near into spawn
Rossies out holding that right side of midform to be safe all these pushing up there
It could see how important to envy that early plaza pop is
Yeah, I feel like we have definitely seen this kind of vibe from NB plenty of times in the past
where if they aren't just running over their opposition early in a series if they drop a map,
something for the next one just changes and they just start full sand every single round running them over.
Like it's almost as if they find more confidence sometimes in a loss.
like a willingness to just push their play style even further after loss like that's the
solution to their problems go harder with their game plan and Kesnet looks right at home in this set up too
it was like he's able to find his place here I mean you might he's on all he's not
asking him to the kind of hero right you're from this every team in in challenges right another very
dynamic player super aggressive willing to push the boundaries and play all dice just like constantly
So far, he is right at home, through coming in with a very modest buy.
Does it look like anything you might be putting somewhere in, but since I'm fighting B, we'll
see the extra still has this operator.
I mean, he's been controlling the side of the map, and since he's not quite with it,
then I'll push up that bar, but exit in the customary location for your route to tuck, extracts
and you feel traded here so how am I now?
I'm gonna push the side to dimensional tricks and option but you won't work with your sting is here.
This is just sending out pumpers here to make that decision for the sooner rather than later.
Really they've all catches on the bench here at the corner in case that will simply convert.
This is just simply this is the envy way we see them.
Let's just go fight them in children. We have better weapons right?
Oh my god.
I tell you, ride a home baby.
Park and play option is casin it.
They make it look way too easy when empty start playing like this and as far as the aim
they get back in that zone.
And they are back in that zone after getting, I think pretty convincingly get in the
1D ones in the shooting for map one on a bist.
I just love players that are testing and that's it's pretty flexed as a big high sensitivity
for low sense rather.
They're pretty close, yeah. Sorry, yeah.
Just getting his face easy, we can get around him before he sees you.
That guy's getting around the block many a time.
At least level two.
Double offset up now for envy.
They have so much money. It just doesn't even matter.
They're kind of just getting silly.
I mean, and why not?
That's what they do.
He's more here this morning again.
He'd be holding down W within the Odin.
What's again in VR?
What do you have to hear?
Popman's gonna have to get a surely.
He knows it's so awkward for him now that we're the playwright below.
He knows it.
What?
What?
Give him.
I'm gonna go inside this knife for a minute.
Jets steps up from all puppets decayed down.
The weapon is still happening back.
He's on utility.
How to run for an hour and hour.
I copied it.
Oh my lord.
How do you get past this?
Kesnet snaps up his third for the round.
Spike is night unrecoverable.
Look at Kesnet.
It's just running around fighting them. It does not care
Now that's an A-Round League and things are starting to look absolutely identical for true
Oh, poppin is just absolutely sweating
Digging the fog by you till meanwhile. Casal is just running around going out fighting everyone
There's the name of that guy. It's like someone's gonna go
I'm like, you know, I've got his arms down stretch your front of him
I should be aiming back to the protecting him, pop him to case so you can leave
his.
Through our, yeah, that was, he's trying to get through the back, back on the
eco sadly we've seen a lot of that running into X-ROMP, we've seen a lot of that.
Yeah, he was just an ruling this side of the map with ease, this entire time.
It doesn't up to challenge MTA, but it actually gets MTA to get a crash away.
So no real real estate bought up by crew on the B-side wall.
Look at this, empty swarming.
Still on the move.
Test it down.
Here we go.
There might be a re-hit on the B-side wall.
Look at the spike here.
Then they haven't made that plaza play, so crew have the flexibility here to pivot.
The crew and crew and mid there just worry.
Someone gonna run at us.
Now, M4D knows that someone is running.
I can't even make sure he walks that way.
I can't even guess for it.
I'm worrying the same thing against this team.
How do the presence here?
I'm gonna try and get in on A to the base split right now.
We'll be disconnected from the crews.
They have to buy the time to wait for the players and mains to get there.
But the timing waste is also allowing entry rotates to be there in Tomta Anchor.
The fire and scouts to be at all of the low utility.
We look at how long Governor has gone to choose the result of that.
Spanky, Spankshy, everybody comes!
Who can't get deep enough?
Can't be caught in this fallout and down the spike
and being non-committal about it, but
that's not an option either.
Benji is stuck in the corner.
Gets on out because Governor Balesy now.
Kaze, it went down, and the Colson's divide
will linger for a little longer.
It needs to be a spike plant here though.
10 seconds left.
Spike Plankshy.
Those go down, just the wall is about to drop.
We're treating into main as Benji,
Governor's so isolated.
That's so low.
No, you're flabbying.
You're catching it on the wall.
Oh, my god.
Hello, and quiet.
It's got to get across here.
This is going to be a strike challenge.
It's going to do so too.
This pesky asker to use it.
Oh, no.
We just couldn't get around.
No, no, no, no.
Just to mind about how much he costs crew would have been there
second round.
Not like this.
And the thrifty, it might well have been there.
Not like this.
Timmernazi has backed up to that bulk to the expire.
He's not gonna give you the chance to recover from that kind of mistake.
I like that from the Spire though, the second that Gravel goes off, he just sprints out of him.
I mean, that's how much of a sprint actually has more of a sprint in the Silent House.
Oh, right, Mr. Yamano?
Kind of easy.
They seem sentry.
Up 10-1.
Yeah, they're coming up on that side.
And be your back.
And be your back, and they're lying against you.
Actually, you want to watch NV play.
It's been fun for days.
There's a lot of such a fun team.
Yep.
Consistent in that regard.
And here we go.
Cousin is running up B with the X-er.
Oh, kind of.
No one there.
All right.
Teleport all the way over towards spawn.
Cousin is already sprinting towards A. X-er gets all the info in the world.
Can I be around behind the map?
I know why he's committing to that.
Still, it's seen all that he needs to.
Again.
This zone.
That's not in the cage at all.
He's just safe one for food.
Take their moves.
This is a pretty early lockdown considering with a rest of crew of now. What is a pyramid
over here going to be they've got four going through part are is totally open I'm
gonna have to get into the site but any of you can try to recommend it as I'm
gonna. I'm gonna be close to the party so I'm here though we know you're gonna love to
deal with.
I can't wait for him to come to the east.
Run down, I'm sure we don't take him to the east.
He's never sat down.
He's not even allowed this one.
He's in the back of the site.
It's finding.
He's alive.
And that's it.
What the hell?
Trying to make something off it.
Typical fear.
Tricks.
Yeah.
Bobbin is giving him a chance to make something of it.
30 seconds.
Is he trying to get out of here and go to be?
He's tracing this move that across the map in parallel.
You're lost, it should be able to hear him turn him on for sure, and if we proceed, we'll probably kill him for sure.
Fight!
I can't put thanks in, but no chance for a clunker from it.
And a brutal savage conformity from envy on the first half of Pearl, pushing up on the map.
Really? Just suffocating crew?
crew, but yeah, literally, every round all the time they're running at them, it's just, that is the
wing of life for team entry, just run it down, and everyone started shooting on this map,
Rossi's at what 13-4, because it's killing everyone.
Poppin is beyond point today. Yeah, this one, uh, man, and the other best right now, that's what they do.
Big band of clap for crew to make this a competitive map otherwise we'll be headed off to our third map of breeze
Stick around folks is a tough one for crew fans, but envy crew can finally start the Dileet
Red Bull gives you wings
Crew really took it and beat a task on Abyss.
I feel like they were a meet them in the middle match them with that playstyle, great
anchoring on Abyss, they dealt with these aggressive pushes, but if you want to beat
Envy, you have to be that locked in for three maps of Outerant, not just the first,
all of them.
And this second map for Pearl, Crew have looked sluggish, slow to respond and frankly,
the well by the raw pace of play from envy on the defense side. Now heading into our
pistol for the second attempt already with 11 rounds in their column.
Simply envy doing what they do best at their best.
If we get this early fight in a main, if we're treating a bit after sending that clone
forward so the space will be longer by the team up 11 to 1 working into this a split.
That's a whole cup and they're going to start, keep them one-wide, simple stuff, if we're trying to
inside the smoke here.
I'm just really making more of it over here, oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
I'm going to classy your close range, and that's a metaphor for how does map has gone,
crew have tried to match NV, they're trying to meet them in every in-pass, and a frankly,
there's been found wanting on every occasion.
Five-up still for NV, barely a scratch on them in this post-plat.
That's empty as look at the T-Supple out of the distance for some kind of air
What make his own fate nice little double down next to not able to get away
Two teller there's another one for MTA
He's on for four here. What's his gonna step up now?
His back to the smoke is good enough. Leave those at your backs away. Doesn't ask for more 14 and 4 and counting with brenches on this bike
And off to the rice rosley time can it
Insane recovery from crew
Six shots from MTA. What a play. Well, I'm calling it a comeback. I mean I won't call it.
Come back. It's the mechanic. You've been calling this extra.
This could be the beginning of some magical match.
Three footers done in. It doesn't have anything to do with it.
Legitably starting from scratch scenarios. He tries to fight his way onto the side.
Who's that extra kind of jump around the box right?
We'll tap that shot
That was that's clean
I'm gonna be just back to a man
Kessent has a guardian that Rossi throws to him. What a good guy
Rolled player
What a sweet heart. Yep, just giving your duals to guardian after he was just round every most of the
I can't see you better get some gills though, Roo.
That's the plan.
I think the side we're going down this wall is our top.
Did I hit the enemy?
Pass that box.
That's it.
And the new setfighting is able to pluck eggs for out of four mates with the Guardian.
Still alive in the hands of the Kesnet.
The time for everyone on NB to hopefully try to distract.
So Kesnet can just start tapping players down.
But someone's going to be a little bit tough.
If they could tend with you.
That's a lot of stingers, man.
The crew are ready to run it down.
There's a lot of distance from the smoke.
I'm going to take you to top of the best of times.
It's going to go now.
It's a sheriff.
It's not to be crew finally starting to build some rounds.
Build some momentum.
It's a long climb.
And sadly, because that one with the Guardian will not be enough.
I have to spike down too, so a little bit of extra cash into this round
around where we're off see this goes basically to zero.
And I never think that's a big,
then fix and chill guys,
then fix and chill.
What?
That's not true.
Is that ever the different meaning?
It can't be his mind, it's ours.
I don't think I'd, I think he's ours.
I don't think he's ours.
Not looking into this.
Well it's changed.
Language evolves.
And we become a whole system.
I don't know if it's evolved that fact.
But anyway.
Rawsey has his stinger now on account of what happened on that last round FTA
About to get that's a much more drift on account of getting a lot of kills in the last two rounds, so
Back to the
Allways the same from these guys
We're going to throw him his bonus, haven't really been out of slow them down, quite enough.
I didn't betray him, I didn't even have to get him with his smoke. It's a fake.
Frosty backing it all, same to down like a double.
Essentially. That's a matter. I'm going to throw him his bar to quick and pop him.
I'm not going to get him in the on.
I should have hold him that angle though.
Snabby, quick shot from poppin.
I'm going to fight his way out of this.
I'm going to wait for it.
Sure.
Exeter, poppin, both low.
It got him a counter in Spire, who's now made his way to be as well.
Don't that time, fuck out into the mic, these camps.
And so the Spire will take it out of the game.
Unfortunately for crew, they were in position to get those kills.
But extra hits some nasty shots backhalls.
We see that from this field, but what was that? There's like a little prefire in the next guy.
Oh, yeah, almost, yeah, it across their outs.
Started this spray as Benji was about to walk into the light.
Why do we ever go to that area?
I don't know if you can switch to the game joke, I think.
Just like, I don't know if you can switch to.
That's what you guys know.
That's something.
We can only speculate why it, of course.
Take flight.
I'm just going to be side again.
And be not a silly feeling that needs to be too creative now.
No, they're ready to just end this game and take us to the race.
That's where they're mine, so that's not going to work.
All right, he's gonna hunt us through right now. What's gonna be fun? Oh, okay, you're portraying it. It's not straight away
Yeah, this is Coke's folks. It's on MTA dimensional drift. Can I make use for now?
So what end though is unclear? It's cooked. It's wraps. It's over. Unless MTA does something miraculous as you do it on that pistol round
In a dimensional trip down getting on in access still on the outside looking at for the time
I think it's his position. No, no, they're all weird and he and actually will try to work these angles
That's it finds his and he don't steal that number. Oh my god. Oh my god
They might be doing this bitch inspiring poppin now realize that this is
The very least is stats for the series. They're gonna work great after
Is stats are safe at the 12-4. It's been the skill of John QT
Sick pistol round and now sick 4k from NCA
The 2-4-2-5
So much that I can say it was just a
You said it was cooked slightly more information to me, so I feel like that makes you look worse
If we were I don't think anyone's judging everyone in this which job is spamming
And the same time we said that.
There's a big good point for everyone's cook.
Everyone watching his cook thought that one.
They were all wrong.
Krua still in it.
Individual noise from NTA.
His captain of float.
Still on the ground depth, since there's still a lot to fight against.
Maybe now.
But we're pretty distracted after that last round.
The family will set this up and we'll stay on feed.
They really just want to end this game and they're just slamming me.
But that's how things...
Begin to get out of your hands, begin to, you know, slip between your fingers and out of your grasp is by trying to get this over and done
And then who starts swinging rounds together and all of a sudden it gets to
You know round six and then they start getting ultimates and then they win the round where you lose all your ult
But you're like that's fine
It's only twelve to seven now and then all of a sudden said like how do we get to twelve to nine?
This is how it begins man
It's the it's the same dot path that I'm many a ranked player is trudging the time
I'm not trying to sell this to you. I'm gonna
We'll see
But are you know what I will say they do keep trying to challenge them to yay on this side and
They work
Time we're a little pivot back towards I or something maybe a 30 seconds left intricate
or they could just follow him.
I'm trying to run it.
TAs gonna be a little high for me now.
That spot.
Lack.
They're standing here.
How did this makes it survive?
I'm just gonna run the elimination off that round.
12 to 5 now.
That's truck to 7.
And then they're gonna be back with the vengeance.
And with weapons this time.
That was MTA getting another triple.
And even if they lose this at this point,
MTA is kind of fuel and nice going into map 3.
And crew, I feel like they're spirits must be lifted a little bit, right?
of the fact that they're running this back and when it's around here, it gets good in the
visual moments.
Maybe they're forgiving him though, shortage of opportunities to fight.
Looks like they look his over the will of the 80s times.
That's not the crew, that's something they did very well at a base that's
ready to it somewhat.
And envy wants to finish this up in a sort of fashion.
They're extra ready to pop out of a dimensional for the blocking area.
The estimate runs around with his ultimate.
He's next.
How long here for FTA?
20 popping on half-arm and no.
I can see all of this.
I'm here to pop out.
Although we're emergency, we're chasing the right behind him.
And maybe it looks too far ahead of him.
Swing the corner.
How do I overdrive after it, but just got smashed?
Okay, flashlight is going to give infiltrated a bit of room to back off to the flower direction.
And we are scared to fully commit there.
to fully commit there. They want to peel off and try and go back towards B.
And if they do so, Benji looks like he's just going to be able to kind of meet them
of the past here, but I feel like you won't really want to commit too heavily
to fighting because he has the cosmic divide that just, we're going to put it
on this side. Yeah, there's a need to be that guy right now. Yeah,
he's just going to relax. And that's fine. That's true.
You do have to retake against his empty squad split them up and divide and you
They can't fall back to be long as a result of this day. I have to mostly stay pushed up
He's first in seconds
Galvan and my look at the challenge is gonna have to
Come through pop a level one about the looks of things. You'll have to fall back no cause we've been to bites still on the table
They're still on the map, but they walk straight in the pop and sideline
No consideration make you to that astral to the right now
He can fight from long here, pop a note call in a rough time.
He's actually a cross, it's all quit.
If he comes from long, Benchy, what'd he get?
He'd come down, as he can he.
I've put them to the sword.
And even after series.
As awkward as it gets to end out that map,
but crew with a little bit of momentum in the second half after going down 11-1
because then we just ran at them on defense.
It's not enough to erase the playlist of what's there to cover up.
We just watched the most envy envy game you can watch
Everything we saw in 2025 from them they recreated the magic here on Pearl by never missing shots and never
Using up with new brush. Yeah, it's a cool density followed up by that individual mechanics that allows them to get away with it
It was such a bizarre style to sing them first
You know kick tier two with it and show off in challenges and they've also kept the spirit of that here
get up against some of the very best players in the world.
Can they run into the third map, but that is the big question we have ahead of the
breeze.
We haven't seen MB there just yet, and of course it's about the crew that already run
out on to stick around and have our analysts break down that second map on me, right
in the breeze.
Hey everyone, the creator of the Pumpkin Swing After Rock, I'm the agile, and let me introduce
you to my team, and be.
You've definitely seen X-Susure, he brings good vibes for our team, and chaos for
enemies. And next we have inspired the man behind the Cypher camp, the Sentinel and the Anchor.
Then we have Keznet, one of the funniest guys on our team dropping 30s even from Chile.
Then we have Rossi, the most talked about our team always picked up the vibes we needed the most.
What an intro to envy that was and they take not number two in dominant fashion.
Winning it, guys, very much the envy way.
Those last few rounds, I think they could have closed out way or less.
Yeah, but you know what, they wouldn't be envy if they did, right?
I think what we really saw, the true envy, the first half, absolutely bonding.
down through that.
It looked like they were, they were um, yeah.
I mean, we were talking about how they were struggling
of executing that style earlier, Emily.
But here, honestly, just looked like I was watching
in a century, and we got to go.
Yeah, no, it was really cool to see because we
see them going for those first picks.
We also see them going for those first picks,
and it as well, like Simon and you just kind of
walking up pushing everything.
And crew really just did not have an answer for that here.
I mean, we saw it in this round, I mean,
they put this face earlier.
We didn't know where to, they held it down.
and it works for them.
It just felt like they had a really solid understanding.
I know in this quick interview,
they said they didn't play their game,
and they needed to play their game.
Genuinely, I'm not gonna lie.
That is the great analysis for this.
They played their game.
Yeah, it's so true.
They just didn't play their game.
How was it different than the first Napier?
Like what do you think actually changed the game up?
Well, one of the things that we were highlighting
in the first Napier, the crew responded really well
to the early defensive aggression
that N.D. was showing.
I think in this game it was the complete opposite story
where early fights were always going in these ways.
And then when there was ever gaps in the ground
and there was instantly filling in with the space
and overwhelming crew.
It's only they also knew not to overstap
when it came to pushing like a lot of the times.
Oh, I just, yeah, I'll over that.
But all over the times, when they would push like be
made with extra, they wouldn't overstap
and push and respond unless there was pressure elsewhere.
They did a really good job of fully understanding
the matte pressure that crew was kind of putting on them
and really ping-pong off of it.
Whereas on a biz, we saw them just push,
even if there wasn't any pressure,
walk push into a mean, just kind of get
as much matte control as possible.
So just need a lot more sense on it.
And I want to look at the stew from cruise perspective
for a moment.
Do you think that there was anything different
that you noticed in that they maybe were less able
to contend with this aggression
when the game point did look good on now point?
Yeah, I mean, it wasn't bad.
I don't think they did anything horrible
In my mind, they were just losing those ones,
especially towards mid, when they would do those 3-1-1s.
They would take space, but they'd kind of get picked off
early, which we didn't see too much on this, right?
And then in those 1-1s towards mid, especially,
they were just losing and getting picked off.
They felt like they didn't have an answer
to come back into the rounds after they were already down numbers.
Yeah, my hot take is I really don't think it's
that deep in terms of stride or anything.
Yeah.
And be just a mutually all-played better.
Yeah, it's true.
And looking at the map through that might be
a bit of a worrying sign, if you're a fan of crew,
but they do have time to bounce back.
But we get ready for that.
Let's hear it from Inspire,
and hear a bit more of his sales pitch
for why you should be rooting for Anthony.
People should be fans of us
because we have a lot of personality, you know?
And we know what it's like to start from nothing
and build up all the ways to the top of a regard now.
So a lot of, you know, relatability there.
And we're like always streaming and talking to the fans,
like interacting with you guys after the game.
So I think that's just a big reason
to come to our games.
Inspirational.
Wow, that's incredible.
First thingality is what they're bringing into the fall.
Do you have anything more to share, isn't that?
No, I can't, you can't best that.
You can't best that.
I'm just in.
Awesome.
I'm so happy that you are.
Let's talk about map three of this series
and where it's all going to unfold.
Of course, Breeze to end this one out.
We've seen one of these teams play it all right.
Which one?
Crew, right?
Yes.
We made a second guess on a jump on like, oh god,
is this a test?
You should have seen her face in the panic in the garage.
This was scary.
We cast in this game.
I hope I remember.
But yes, crew is played it.
And we have not thus far.
What are we looking for to see on this map?
I'm really worried.
I don't think anything that envy does is,
or what am I trying to say here?
I literally just lost my train of thought.
I'm looking to see everything down.
I'm looking to see them stick to their game plan.
I was a little doubtful when the coach kind of said that.
But I mean, I was proven wrong in that map,
but I need to see them kind of keep that up, keep the aggression.
And yeah, just kind of overpower crew.
Yeah, well, crew, they did play this.
And I want to look at the team composition
that they did play in that first game.
They couldn't get the wind here.
We're playing jet and chamber.
Do you think this is something you want to see
crew going back to, Marna?
Um, I didn't mind the jet and chamber.
I think I more had an issue with the solo controller
on the Viper, especially because you can't get those
smoke stuff that you really need.
And once you put that wall down,
you're kind of forced to commit that site
on the attack side.
A lot of lurking you can't really do
and the mid controls kind of hard
without that extra smoke.
Well, I'm really worried about starting on that deep end
because what we saw on a business is them entering down those sites.
And even with these breeze changes,
they're going to need the additional spools that they just don't have.
Like, I don't, I'm not confident in them being able to play,
like, play up and aggressive on their anchors.
And that's really what was working for them on the first map.
Look, I agree. I prefer like the double smoke looks from this team.
I don't think they have enough time to actually change that week.
I like with just one week coming in.
And I will say that I just think there's more focus put on your jet and chamber player
in this one, especially the way the end you're playing in the previous match, it's going
to be a lot to come down to opening fights, and that's where your jet-chain bracket
firing and all still in it.
Yeah, I wanted to take a little deeper.
What is actually the drawback of not playing double smokes on this map?
Because before the changes it was reasonably popular to just play that Viper, but now it
is a different story.
And with that, we actually are not going to get to hear from them.
Because I don't want to hear from you.
I want to hear from Uber and Wyatt, who will be back with you in just a minute with
not number three.
So this chat's going to be in start contrast to the only head-up to map one, because we're
sitting in the praises of crew saying they've got shooters, everyone sort of online today
they were great at denying certain sight hits away from in beyond a piece, but on Pearl, we saw none
of that.
Indeed, suffocate the map, always pushing up on their defense side, contesting their
kill-droid drone and plaza on Pearl, for example, are getting up be long, they always had
about 67% of the map on the wraps.
Yeah, and we hit there, it's time to win, but they just all started shooting.
I mean, this is literally just the envy play style.
I just, I said it during the map, but how many times they're in challenges that we've
seen, if envy go down a bit, that somehow powers them up to just go harder with their
play style that is very one of one, which is like extreme that they are aggressive and
they just push it to a further extreme and crew could not handle that.
And honestly, I think that's like a general worry, just in this matchup when you have a
team that doesn't have a lot of experience together against a fearless one that will run
you down.
Now I was curious to see the commuter because we're seeing NVU memories for the first time
and Kezit playing the chat and then of course, well, you know, W's Exters on the U.S.
That's no surprise, and then the other default stuff.
And for crew, I was hoping they were going to switch to a double controller
con solo viper from all you've seen so far.
Truckals, not not working on reason, right?
So they've got the Astrid in the mix.
And then that is going to get Nags away from playing chamber, though.
He was on that before now on the point.
Yeah, that was, obviously something Nags that was known for,
sort of back in his heyday in VCT.
Yeah, when crew were in the chamber meta,
and you was the chamber guy for,
the way this map's changed,
though, it's necessitated a little bit of a shift here
from crew, don't say they fell to Furiya on this exact map.
Again, that was a good series,
went all three, much like this one crew showing that
they've had to come together pretty quickly.
We'll play this from different cultures.
And obviously put together a decent outfit,
but envy here, no one even stood in your stories
and in your lore, they just see it a bit down
and move on to the next game.
Yeah, pretty much.
who are hoping their fortunes this time on a third map reason better than they were against
the era as that was the loss in the series with the greatest deficit it was 13 to 5 that
they suffered let's see if they can do better off the back of a pre-devastating showing on
portal now it's the first time seeing three since the changes the most notable is the
removal of whole so an entire lane is basically changing a lot of people please about that one
NTA is having a talk into Woods Boxing for you, but it's going to be a trade.
A lot of time ago.
Was he portraying everybody, except since he was at the end of his fight down, and...
Oh my god.
No cover, just a ton of them.
One of those new pieces of architecture here by the way.
We're swinging out and collects that lurks of wind out the pistons.
You mentioned before that crew had been struggling in the pistol round game
throughout just, well, kick off.
So, the guard is running out of legs now.
But yeah, now with this series, they're starting to even things up, right?
So, getting one here, I think one I'm just having that.
It's been a day, my memory certainly, correctly put.
And yeah, push down near that's going to likely be a common play
for these defending yours.
Yeah, I think you're going to see that quite a lot here.
Both sides of course on the,
so there's something to try this sky or some,
I mean, senseless, I tried this sky,
this is clear.
I had a million results.
And I thought it was standing up here,
but between these two.
I'm going to talk to yourself. I'll wait to the side here. You can be Wolfgang to the easy now, but
Oh, they're giving him that. Oh, that's all my god. All right, because why do you have to do them like that?
It's a lot of the sheriff, yeah, and satisfying to see it go to work, but ultimately it's just a consolation for envy.
They're hoping to give governance a spout for the sake of getting the ace that it vives
But also it would have gotten in the hunt as fury but dying also it's gotten in the hunt as fury
He has his ultimate ready
Crazy shots
That's why you pay in the big bucks
Yeah, got to bring that energy into this back three. It's gonna feel like a very long series long
longer than it has been time-wise probably for crud just because of the strain playing
against the team like envy will put on your day off and let us like really don't want
to let out.
I feel like it's really a really have to have some good vibes with this carble together
team, you know, just some except they happy to be here.
I'm just having a fun time with the truck and it's a possible to trade out of the truck
so it's the likes to really compose the play there from Infiltrate it and be now
I've been slowed down to a crawl through me.
See now that area all is so much more hemmed in than it used to be on this map.
Not nearly as open as it was in the past year.
Now these middors, they are more open, a lot more space there.
And TA trying to get something accomplished with the fucking do-day clear infiltrator tucked behind the box.
He is no support, no one to play off him in the back.
It's a good idea, that's sure as a kid's for Austin.
There's no activation for him today, because he got a bloody fucking entertain.
He can't swing that and pick them off from long range.
So yes, this is the stay there.
There'll be a double back here by Russy.
Can force MTA away.
Double swing here and a gate crash for insurance for MTA,
might be the play.
That's the T.P.Y. and that's it.
Having him hit me at five.
Right now, we're real.
What are you getting into?
We're in two light.
We're at Proposed Team MFRMTA's pop and force.
So that's the spike down.
The NCA postway with the Bucky has to be dealt with.
And how can you tell what their clothes straight to you as the Bucky at least behind the smoke?
A judgement Bucky account for like three or four ND plays in that round.
Since there's not any idea for the ones that SPAC goes loose over to all the mid-doors,
in fact seems like the ideas run out of suited the infiltrator finds it to
that two piece early in the round.
Some of these really tight angles that exist on the map now are just being exploited by these shotguns
of noxious repeat doors for MTA and then early on infiltrated with the judge fighting towards like that new little house is elbow
gets the first to do
and that's a bonus round stolen for crew
extending the lead and beyond the eco
some martial for couple
and he already managed to get themselves
got to something about me does extra reveal
Smoke will keep him quiet, but not entirely, shock-dun.
Also deployed.
Now the look is over.
We're ready for our team.
Extra flight, as he tries to come around in corner, it's a fancy footwork for him.
I'm truly alive.
He's not a slipping, he's thriving out there on this beast side.
It's by a gets-up pretty deep, MTA now aware of it.
You can yourself get out of jail, free card.
It's just one bullet in the shell, he's dying.
Tell you how all of these guns and he does it.
He's got a fair, has a dimensional drift.
Can a crew player get an ace this time?
Governor couldn't get a shot.
The ASTA is gonna steal it.
He's gonna steal a dog map.
He's a game.
He's having a map so far.
The series, honestly, we were here.
He was there in the disparate.
It's the fight come back attempt with that previous map.
Yeah, he was. He just suddenly got like a 12 kills and like four rounds or something.
He was like, one of the most clatchup on that shot.
sure decides to go nuts.
Finally, this guy can really show what he's capable of.
On a roll that's most natural for him.
Crew guys get in the hype off these plays as well.
Time to jump.
I mean, envy of it.
Pretty quiet.
We've sometimes worked out to our pit of streakyness
around the... in the past.
Benji forced away by...
a little new tail combo there.
They're just getting really calm.
Why is it? Well, Trader is just in on that swing and governor hesitant to go from more tries to delay swing
That doesn't work out. We sent to you. I get some on bag
And now with the cosmic to buy down from
NVU, I think they try to commit to as people know they want to get back out towards a
Surely don't expect that actually it's just taking all this space and main though, right?
Right?
Magsett?
Now what he does is information really depends to his herd now.
No more stats.
Pulling the meds.
Some sort of story, I've been trying to throw the ground.
Well, here I swing up down to meet finally.
He's found two.
That's going to have to do it for now.
MTA's managed to get there.
Shows is re-rend.
He gets off Scott free somehow.
Are they ready for Mags?
They're just not.
It's so free.
Anyhow, I love his dance.
It's really fighting his time before revealing himself.
MTA just confirming.
position. Kesley who's already used to move out, filling up against two old teammates
now in the 1B2 clutch, already up on the site.
Crews are probably coming. Kesley's gonna go pretty much.
He's just gonna go fast so good half for NTA, but Kesley ruins him with a blane store.
Excellent usage of that all, just to completely disrupt the crosshair. In a flash,
just kids up into the skybox for that once.
That's really well played.
I mean, then she had some good anchoring though.
That recall star that came up was,
every time swung out, he couldn't get traded
and got that one kill drops.
It's the second.
That was nice.
Nags gets in a great position,
because it gets envy back into the game.
I really had to work with that round now.
Time to build on a real clash.
Coming up in a very,
a quick familiar to this,
I know, there's just kind of kept it there.
Where's your little girl?
Oh, no, they're overpossed.
There's a catchers in this.
They actually are swing in.
That exposes crews.
They're going to be waiting for him.
Let's go.
Fire squad.
Man, basically he's going to be pinged out.
Can someone help him from back pillars?
No.
How am I going to couldn't get there in time?
We'll explain to the mother face.
So far up on the site though.
They've got a wrap from the chest, Nick.
I'm just trying to be careful.
He's taking.
And Cassie's found three already.
He can't come up with another monster play in that round.
Like in the pistol, crew are trying to hit envy with some envy-like opening rounds.
This is back to back where they've taken a fight in the first and like five seconds.
There they get forced back by the early end of utility that is meant to keep uplay just
like that at bay and get you that easy age face towards the orb where they have that
stun come down from your astro.
There's a recon flash.
What have you but then a full recommittal doesn't plan out.
And you go back to around five, they went for that fight in elbow, multiplayer, swing, or it's the lead swing from going, doesn't work out.
I think we can tell a lot from teams on Breeze at the moment by how they're fighting into A-main on defense.
So a similar activity level from Sentals, right?
You know, like that part of the map, a lot, really asking for a lot there.
So there's the risk of letting plates into A.
If I can walk and really get you there pretty easily now, so...
play very very clean it's just
and it really is cool for watching
I just heard this
I'm a member I'm saying
you can feel that there's some show I mean yeah
you can definitely figure that out he is going
that's what I know is an amazing saying
and I was just going to say it's called the Cm and a different system
and it's called the Cm and a team that is
Just a unleashing him. He's next.
Yeah, he's got a lot of freedom to work with.
The structure of NBC to work, see, respect to them.
Yeah, I guess.
It's fast and easy into this,
Be site with the dimensional drift.
Unplayed for a full retake, but the weaponry for crew is not ideal.
Action for all.
I can't control all.
I can't control all.
That's putting it lightly.
There's a fuck that got my chance.
It's an entire experience.
It's a letting him come to him.
to him.
Oh my goodness, the guy is so shy.
Okay, three for Benji and now we're online.
X-rap on the side.
I'll take back his cruise.
His weapon spires in city.
He does the one who sees your reply right now.
Cosmic Defide makes it that much more complicated.
X is going to go hunting.
Benji doesn't have to time to check all the things now.
It doesn't see X that quickly enough.
He had an idea, but the crosshair just a little bit off, just an inch too high when eggs
are peaks out.
Pretty unfortunate, snappy shots from Bungie respect to the attempt.
I'd say at the end of the day, what was looking like an absolutely drizzable round for
crew where they were not going to get anything accomplished.
They walk away getting three kills, removing three guns, and they got the dimensional
drift.
What's a Viper spirit out of envy?
So that's not bad in the loss.
Keep your cap on the economy.
I think is really important in that round number seven.
Peru now I will afford themselves an operator for MTA.
Top adjustment on the job we can't make it goes back site.
And a lot of pressure will be coming here's way.
No, man.
I said, actually don't get fired.
It's fine.
Wait.
You're going to hunt it's fury now.
It's going to break into the chaos.
It's a matter of only one.
The one but Governor's going to be there to pick up the slack.
If we're trying to swing through and rushing down.
Be.
and now the trade achieved for envy.
This is why he's a clean way into this side, and that's a good start.
I'd see a try to pick up the angle. I like that.
Nebula being thrown down though from inspire.
That's going to really force MTA to have to just walk back
and get on a more passive line than she on this flank.
But it's fire is so aware at the moment.
Not why you're on the right line, though.
It's fire down mid.
I'll be expecting himself to be covered in a Vengeance and I can retreat to I anticipate the difference
Does MTA will once again getting trenched on the other side of the map?
Wouldn't be the first time that inspired could come up with a clutch in this series
It's already had a couple
Is that insane one back on a this one envy?
Pretty otherworldly
Work timings this series if he pulls this off here as well
It would have been so close back on to when you'd go, but that's not gonna be the case. MTA was steady over on that site holding it down
And Spire is actually watching the sport where Benji's gonna come out from infinity doesn't put stars down there
He walks straight into his fight line of sight. It doesn't small timing is you there on that sort of extremity moment here
That was a very good flood
By the way, from crew getting back in there MTA
He's pushed us, that's what I'm saying, good be old.
And he's pushed up with the arm, has to teleport away.
So he doesn't have a second TP to get out.
He's stuck back slightly B, and they all flood into support him.
That was really well handled.
Early contact, position for MTI.
Doesn't yield any results, but he doesn't over push it.
This is now.
Better miss the Fruity goal, is the push.
Oh, my god.
I'll infiltrate it. Followed up here with the relay ball.
Except if you have to buy these time inside that smoke with the spike is
Tainer largely out of his grasp.
I don't just pick it up.
But that running gun movement was so ridiculous.
All the nose got off his nasty.
That's why I want straight.
Oh, what is happening now?
I'm giving that one.
Oh, I'm going to lie.
It infiltrated just activates in that round.
The movement is just illegal, honestly.
Give me a replay of the just strafing back and forward holding down mouse one.
Every baseball is all the stuff I've done for coming in.
Close enough. He's got a fan's in.
They nerf. He's going to last.
set the finger to jump accuracy on the classic.
Yeah, what do you do?
That round really is a very quick one.
All of NV just invest in them, double doors, push to the fullspottenance phase.
Time out, called that operator still in rotation on the crew side of things.
TNMTA push up on Peel it a bit with it here.
And if you have to play around that, and the fact that they themselves are strapped for credits.
So, that operator from MTA since that has come online has been definitely a big factor
even just in where it's kind of forcing NB to try and go and try to work there just right
into the hands of Infiltrator.
And ultimately, let's see, NB are just try swinging out of that smoke and it was a little
mist time.
And in the fact that it kind of isolates to one B1's is not ideal, it also can't run
that free.
Let's see what Envy have in the store for us out of this time out.
Hero Rifle in the hands of an expire.
Huh?
Hero can't never mind.
Wonder God, I was gonna say, you've done it's 200.
I think you want to have enough for the four buyers.
It's the Hero Astro Rifle that's crazy, but...
Envy caught themselves out of couple of rounds.
And they're mid-part of this half, but now they're running out of time to post them all for a mid-able.
Get out of my way.
This time NTA adjusting to post up on a main two stars there so the choke will be smoked and there can also
My first gonna get him in crew do want to play up in the truck as far as we get back to the wall
Oh, basically pinged pinged up
He's actually
Now a flash through this wall can be the plan for the cosmic divine comes up this is part of playing for envy
Space to all
And yeah, gotta try to get through extra though very tricky on it
next day is in a different postcode and all of a sudden just a straight up eco round rush
into a has destroyed crew and put env in a position to carry over a bunch of free guns into this next
round economy all of a sudden booming for them. I'm white what even happens there. It's just
Benji's backside is caught by the recon. MTA is unable to actually get a kill with that operator
When the hits coming through they're scaling to aid with the viable first and then the cosmic divide behind
Yeah, I can through both of those
I could just himself
willing to try and engage, but
You know ultimately the crosshairs like Exters are staring right at the wall easy kill when a player throws a flood through
They're not flashing through them either really. Let's see this again. There's that recon that comes through and it catches on to Benji. That's not important for us
That's just
awkward place yeah no one I think they have like a
or a fight for there but they are like contacting through that
world individually and the very good Benji is dead it's not like
they can smoke off they're eating dangles there really like that's
soft that's tough yeah but Chris all with a lot of cash they can
buy up just not enough looks like they get an offer just I just
not have one in this round of a trade or fucking up close
It was on T.A.
Exit with an orb.
Crap pushed up, but they're not swinging main this time.
Yeah, and they're round.
I would imagine it will be played out of its slower here,
given the Kesnet just took the off from N.T.A. in the last round,
and it's kept it to watch over on that free side.
To see if anyone from crew will be pressing up
to take map control, not the case.
They're just, you know, playing like,
I don't know dare I say like a light trap setup kind of thing or NTA is gonna probably try to make the majority of the noise here and then
Teleport away and infiltrate is gonna
Stand there with the judge you know like I'm not expecting a very expecting a double switch back by a yori flash here
I'm sure but it's just not coming now with down under
52nd they're playing into cruise hands. This is what they want
They want and be to go into this
Two man cross fire setup. Great way to spot on out. I'll actually get shot by the playback pyramids so they don't know about these
tucked in the features here for cruise.
Five holes come down to the limit.
They're going to pull you.
And if we're trying to get 21 to 21,
what?
Poppin is able to do a 180 on it.
30 seconds left.
And that's a dollar set of a pitching here for cruise.
That is crazy.
What do you do to tell the one in the store as well?
When he just hits that 180,
Spike goes down as the fighter's injury now
as well to close this round out.
That's why I showed himself in Bensie pool.
Happily chased out.
Ragnet's poppin.
We're working around the creases of the smoke.
Benji has to know there's a player on the other side of the box here.
Rossi though also clued in.
Now or even in this postpot.
Presence is back of a site for crew.
I'm sore him.
One Molly for back here and then no governor on the cross.
Rossi's going to keep it together.
Maxit is very healthy.
Getting the chance to have a tap.
That's it gets it out now can go fighting Rossi brought along
Go compose you from the veteran keep crew ahead by three
What a retake three versus four Benji absolute star player on that round
Collects who when they're getting back into the site little adjustment on to poppin when he was on that cross
Trying to set up some better positioning for envy in the post plant and he's just not able to do it. It's right in this moment
It's a crazy little before the game. It's all the traces. I think that's it
At least from that point of view, it's in the look of the sun
Nags that there knows that Rossi is very low
I'm not seeing quite time getting it to harm me if it's the last round of the half by the way
I've been around 5 volts for crew because it was a crazy first off
They're gonna fit drops as soon as it comes up and now they're gonna make the way through a crew
We're set up though for if I just pin A, so let's take off the sight entirely.
We're going to be full retaken to this now, and yeah, the good one's free ultimate to play with, but it ain't going to be well-intrunged in 20 seconds.
Cosmic to my comes soon, dimensional trip to get the information and it's being planted behind that wall, and you try to enter that game before that actually all of the fun is forced to mind, but if he ended up in a 5-up space any day the week.
So it's on the cabinet.
to get clue to 8 for the half.
Excellent out of ping him out,
and we just got him surrounded.
Can't cut the angles and Rossi.
We'll get MVP to half-fire with a respectful 5 round title.
Because it just deletting the eggs before that pit is even half way ballooned as of just a crazy entry to fire.
Because instant dashes were right home.
It is uncomfortable to spot all the pipes.
That's because pit race started around now.
Just because how close up the barrier you can get.
Especially with like way late jet, neon comps.
You know, so we can kind of get punished there,
but two rounds in this game, seven or five on breeze.
That's what we'll see ending move,
the defense side after this.
Competitive first half, here on Breeze,
that a side of app in a series is an envy and crew visa.
Storylines are plenty.
Players who grudges scores to settle
from challenges, teammates of all, throwing down our here.
Such storylines are merging so early here
on a kick-up of these guys that realize they're hanging
in the balance.
A loss here drops you to the lower bracket,
where a loss there would eliminate you
from kick-off in any charts of representing Santiago.
this is truly an inflection point, not only in terms of the series, but in terms of the overall
fortunes at kickoff of these sides. This crew team has definitely, at this point, surprised
everyone. No expectations coming into this last second thrown together. Suppleers from
Winthrop University, other players from crew academy, and somehow they're making it work.
There is some level of just natural chemistry here that is activated for these guys and it's been
to watch, here comes a full aid in, and everyone's from envy ready to defend.
It's right up under Pyramid Thayer, envy one of trying to filter in through double door.
They set up at least the fight through the wall is going to be decisive once.
Be quick on both and crew mode.
A lot of revealed now, they're going to get scarring and get fighting.
The Pumman's out of deal with him to try a little bit.
Next, they close up on the Pyramids.
Oh, God!
If their space for an India suffocating as they did on peril.
No room for crew to breathe, they need to fight to make that space.
And next, they're versus three.
It's not all that you've got. It's crew sighted.
Andy, we're just overwhelming on that defense with all five players ready to go.
Before crew were even able to scale to pyramid,
so even though they have a realistic chance at planting the spike,
that's some pretty sick defensive pace.
And I want to see the characteristic style of Andy.
It's Glappton, I'll...
It's gonna start to amaze you. It's gonna start on Pearl.
Why can't you do this and I'm gonna get hyped up. I will tell you that
It's definitely getting hyped up. But what I'm looking for these push-ups not just on be like, you know, with the all-porn contact angle
But how they playing the eye? I think I'm interested in sling it
Kissing against the sparks that have a step away from that ball
It will ask the questions. That isn't aggressive
You're question heads with an answer
The barge-hole for really this smoke
But he lives, but he lives, he needs time to prove.
Worked up, elbow at least a little bit.
They are on just the five of the boxes, however.
That was the week, Keznitz.
So, trying to repeat him.
It's a good shot down.
Maybe there's an opening.
Definitely not a gun to be recovered though.
It's for small hits and crows nice and second of all.
It's not worth getting there to get a martial.
Well, it is contact line for X to those about to be challenged.
Magic Link is because it doesn't go for it's pretty telegraph position.
Yeah, we're not just trying to gather back up in mid and then towards their main,
since I could just get out there with all five playoff the Viper Wall.
Not a lot of you'd see what to do, you know, there's a fast lane to try and close the gap on these anchors.
Rusty can't slow down really at all.
A recon for back side.
Seconds left.
That's that guy is the base you're going for a plop and he had to stick it yeah only enough time only had one option there
But not a bad amount of damage coming out of that round for crew
depleting envy of three guns
Mostly to do that fight over on the A side and Kez and it being a little greedy with the aggression trying to hunt for
Kills early on and taking all that damage
I mean
Coach Sutter is basically said that Keznic gets the set those terms. Let's do whatever you want. Hey, is greedy or is this passive as you sort of choose?
I must be real, if Envy were trying to play with any other style would be something actually new to them.
How could it be something actually different?
As you can see, it's just unleashed doing whatever he wants, is par for the course with the Envy approach.
Let's see what they have and soar on this defensive round on the bonus.
I mean, this is a round where you typically expect them to be going for some kind,
it's a crazy agro play somewhere, but that's not the case.
Exeter is just up an elbow with a judge trying to recreate what infiltrator did to his
team and this exact same spot when it was crew on defense.
That Albrone is pretty telling to the governor.
He can check close and see if there's no one pushed up.
That could also be happening now.
There's not been enough time for that so they know they can talk some rocky towards
the back of those pyramids instead.
Rossi would just go straight now by the way,
dying with the ball-dog and the previous round,
so if you tough for him to accomplish the two-class A-Broad.
I'm gonna add a drone there, maybe,
be contemporary and pinged out, but there wasn't all in the way.
Skipping is found in our opportunity to close the gap
on the choke point though with this bucking.
There's always the risk,
or the temptation to over-push this,
taking step and start to pull down.
Pop it is your choice.
He's going to always see his play, he's going to do that.
Did you ever find the one, as Rossi was coming out of the fight?
and down to almost instantly
Exit on the spot on the spot
and the spot on the star
weak weaponry
weak by excruciating down
as a dealt with as well
infiltrator has been
pretty quality shots on the
third map of the series
five bonuses go
a little on the quieter side here for envy
by playing though for some access
this is now looking a lot better
I don't like that much now, they're feeling a bit more significant too.
Noting them!
Just throwing up that stun, no one there.
Once he gets off the smoke to get on that spike, has to be out of the initial crowd, well though.
Come out of the diffuse.
Diffuse. Diffuse.
The time is no time for spying.
I'll take a kill in my way out, though, happy it up with that.
I'll be sticking out, he knows around, he's virtually over.
It's fire, single handedly has managed to get every gun out of the hands of crew on their first bite though
I like that he goes and he doesn't have to slack but he knows that he's a bonus that he could have
So he's able to throw that last player off the side possibly give up these gun
And I don't know I don't hate the idea of popping get re-inserted close to a main after the alder on timing comes out
Just trying to play up that lack of information and does get his
Yeah, get him the guns away.
He walks away with four kills effectively.
Three and then fours has been to give out this bike.
He's a top in the server now, suddenly at 15.
He's next.
I talked about the bonus being quiet, but he maximizes value there.
I look at Cruz buying.
He cooked them.
That's just stuck on fistals now.
So this is a real opportunity for an envy who are also low on a lot of cash right now
to actually build up their economy.
And then we'll wait hope for a push-up, but we'll be having seen it from ND here, but they
know better on around like this than to offer those freebies up.
It's the same D-man contact angle for the Yoru, the rest of crew are milling around, hoping
that something presents itself.
Yeah, and it's pretty you're aware that nothing has happened towards the new.
Now we're just coming out and then you can see the attention of the vents, please.
towards that side of the map is they're from crew get through those mid-doors
okay, he's so deep here
okay, so I don't respond though that takes a quick reaction
he's not low yet again and while it's still
he's still on two feet though
well, I'll find him off
it's back side able to win that isolated fight against the infiltrator with a weaker weapon
and now just has to buy this time for the rotates to come in so they can play out this man
advantage or he can take gun advantage or he can shoot the enemies to take
Play was somebody shocked, I don't know, but he's tough in that position on Pyramid
right now, all the crew are on their side, and we found out that the challenge and Spire
is going to continue to attend his tally and in-been have now, even up the game.
That's all done by Rarsie, just please, in a safe intelligent way back site.
He gets that one isolated kill against Infiltrator and then from there, he can just hold
down the angle, wait for the rest of the team.
They stole them back in together
Make it look as easy as possible
Not a fan to treat take
And he has yep, not long time
Yeah, this is the best map of the series so far up at 17 close now
I man here for crew of course that was a week goodbye for them. It was inspired that you know really came in on the bonus round and
through all of their money plans for a loop.
So now to come back in there with that much, much, much, much weaker by now though.
You're game planning around maybe getting best value out of this cosmic divide.
Hunter's Fury also coming up on, so to de-s around to put your head together and try and formulate a way into the site.
Envy haven't been posting up too close on A. It's been getting drawing down, spotted out.
Governor's been out of reading to just how they're trying to play that site.
They're not bothered to be in all yet.
Just as a side point by the way as well. It's fire playing very well right now in
The least friendly inspired meta of all time and I saw I thought no cipher
A lot of maps were you know people are running double-dueless no scente
It doesn't get to play cage, man. It's just he's on like totally you know different roles
A lot of stuff. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, we're yeah. He's a you know plan
As for here having to switch it up do different things and
And still a bit out of, kind of express some of his love of lurking a little bit, still finding some pretty crazy timings.
But anyways, it's comparable.
Alright, can crew get something started right now.
What is this?
Steve Wall.
Trying to push through.
Yeah, flash through.
Looks like they want to split into B through players coming from Maine, and they have not left this site though.
They're not baited into going towards a crew slowing down a bit.
Hasn't it on the line?
Watch out for this!
To protect because in his weapon, there's a fine much.
Do you go damage them?
The sight crew come, they're still coming.
Come in, the plane doesn't come.
Come down there from end to end.
Yes, they even want to commit with the envy divide down.
This roster clue is going down.
Wait, don't throw it.
I'm going to be up with a gun for me.
Excellent, front end setup.
That's why going down through mid-dode, infiltrate is made his way through yet again, and the off-the-side there, really not, I'm positioning, can test this.
From B Connector, Poppin has been out to get in, still no plan yet.
Now that now he's annoying, I've got a good idea to act towards the edge of the side, is where crew set up.
One enemy remaining.
Our infiltrator is a living number.
Or on this site and Benji back from there, enough of just controlling elbow deletes, Keznet.
I'm going to just need to see this infiltrate real quick because he was really just on a solo mission in that site.
And the crew were definitely confused at some point and so what to do when the counter wall came down.
Up on the box, I accidentally able to collect that when he had the opportunity to shoot him in the side.
Great round for mental shoulder.
All quick, Rossi walk into Benchidae, an elbow.
That required, you know, empathy to reclaim that.
That felt like it even trained.
back onto the base side.
Yeah, so we're at round.
I mean, it looks like crew wanted to play with crazy pace, just put it into the site
and they slow it down and then have to kind of react and it is a weird round and they
come out on top.
There's also no contact with the extra with the scope weapon there.
Anyone else?
Yeah, it's tough.
All of envy just pushed out or seen man, but that only leads to give the easy call
for crew to get into A at the site is free.
We will get the spike down.
What they have to win out a post plant now against more players on envy and
NTA needs to give him to a position where this judge can give value.
Rossi had to pull straight off the side.
He's going to be still tripped.
It's not inspired.
Getting some success in his spots.
I'm going to hear in the post-plant.
I saluted his best.
It's not that planned.
No, I mean, presence here at all for crew.
Very much the solid mission is going to be just getting there now.
But it's too late.
5-10 seconds too late.
Yeah, things getting just very awkward there on the site.
How like, infiltrator and NTAs.
Didn't really know where to go and then they tried to get into the nebula, but it was a bit missed time
Nagsets positioning there
Hell's close to everything needs to know about what this round is like
Like it's just as vibe a plane spawn site pivoting knows that it's gonna be an a hit Rossy immediately pulls off that site. Yes, the safety for a retake
That's going to be crew now back on another eco round. We've had a couple already this half
and we have been more than controlling their economy should be at least one for them to get into the lead at 10
what is going on right now with a extra look at that kick or what that is
all right that's saucy come on bro just do it just do it just do it pully
This is a commitment to mid-doors again within this time frame he can get into a ridiculous position
That's fine
Okay, what's once again it's like all I mean and a split attack on all their feet side
He's the overdrive from infiltrating no charge to make it
It's quiet just very well. They'll train sure on this be side governor also not blow on the cross down the 20 and all alone
out of the round, surely.
The environment's inspired definitely is shooting on this last battle for the series.
That is, of fact, and I'll be disputed.
I mean, I'm sure we'll see on the replay.
We'll just don't lean that knee on all of the coming to do with Impal Trader trying to swing wide.
Just to hold up with extra shredding the players with worse weapons, you see around.
Kind of long-wise is the days of phase baby giant,
that's for sure.
Oh, there's an ace of the god Impal Trader actually missed.
Spire this back out controlling man. It's all cause it's like a couple spot to be I guess you're trying to help cover me
Dead shark buff in the scope, huh?
Like wait, did he love?
That's you
Maybe still a lesson validation could be lacking there
I get it
So if we're gonna have a instant little recon
Call the plate and make that the main space
Yep.
Similar.
Oh, this is...
Oh, man! It's gonna have a conspiracy whip!
It's just a little bit white with pitties down now.
Replace by a smoke, recoil.
Hey, that's a bit so different from AXL.
It's very deep down mid and can see everything.
Who knows if crew are finding a pullout here.
I'm back.
It was nice just backing up a bit.
And now that the teleport away had to be forced by AXL,
Crew can take their time. I make it seem like they're working elsewhere, cutting noise, and then
Rehitting it to the site if they so choose
But you can see that inspired has put himself on a pretty good line over towards bees pushed outside of Maine
So do you think that should be giving envy the idea that this will eventually be coming a they have extra watching mid
But because he doesn't see anyone they gotta know that this is just everyone coming out of man. It's a kid. Yeah, it's cast it
it, post it up here for contact.
Take that Astra Star,
probably gonna get them through this drone
is a bit frustrating,
you're guessing it's gonna get off the line entirely.
Okay, dry and swing it,
fair enough.
Now we gotta have the tailwind.
Thanks, man.
Probably with a timely,
recon bolt spots out of player.
And Kesit's been out of fullback
to something we've saved you.
And the guy is popping open,
Kesit's got a sparky,
It's getting sick out.
Try to see the MTA was hoping to run down the sofa.
And now Poppin!
Run him up and run into that pressure.
Right here's a jet down.
Can't come forward and sell the rockets together.
Benji's out of line too though.
Last hope of this round.
Snuff down by Poppin's shorty.
If Kezet, Poppin, just so ready for everyone to come out of Maine, they had the info from their teammates controlling other parts of the map.
And Kezet really plays that situation.
infection. Talks, waits out the drone, then swings, has the bash ready to just get back to the right and get behind pyramid.
And then often was doing a really nice job of just working the architecture on the map to re-position himself.
Get through the anchor and kills.
Crew are really sudden to look like they're in trouble.
There's a blend of right. This defense of half has been pretty rock solid from envy.
running at a rope that it got, but we've seen inspire definitely coming to life in these
anchoring situations holding down the sights and then catching it as well. The scope weapons
with the art there, he's turned up on this map. You see, a switch extra have been picking it up
a lot, so these earlier rounds. They just haven't been challenging that B-side really at all.
So a little bit of extra stopping power over on A has seemed to help MV greatly, especially
He helps Rossi out. He has to do the uncomfortable, you know, moving some getting that
Viper's pit down in front of a main and getting out a lot quickly. And crew were actually
set up to spot that out very early. They had a recon ready to pop inside that pit.
It feels like for me that when crew are going through these A hits, even though they've
gotten into the site and get the spike down get some space, they're not really able to set
up good post plant positions. I'm thinking what happened easier time of that over on the
side. I think it's a bit more simple and natural to set up just in the moment and play around
some of the parts of the map that were on A either just getting forced back playing behind
pyramid and NV are just getting all the space back running down.
If it's it's it's a I this route and that's a little bit of early pressure towards
main, just to threaten that they're probably going for an A hit again at this time
if they didn't want to build me, they've got their controllers over there, just making sure
that there's not any aggression from NV, and there isn't.
Trone from Governor going to have to get Kazan at off this line.
It's the first time he's supposed to disliking this map as well.
It spies get up the dive in there and again he's been a consummate anchor this guy
Apply it I know where he is approximately but he's now he's still able to trade
Trying to walk around this pit now, but crew happened I see it that he could be over here talking cubby
There is a cosmic divide if we get to that point
For a retake attempt, but there's no ceremony control for crew. They are boxing that asshole wouldn't be helpful
if no one gets to kill me with that in spite of trying to get him to go bro
he is definitely the MVP of this last map
don't think you can argue that up at 24 kills right now and how many of the ones he
felt like a lot definitely a lot
feeling at you all right now let's meet presidency for it
Trust me, Twilight's gonna come into place here for crew.
Crew, who are just trying to send up?
Geek, over towards B right now, and it's teleport now away towards A&A
that has just Rossi only, what poppin should be able to get their mid-doors in time to support
drew our little bit slow, and it's allowing at me to get the rotates over here in time.
Okay, now I'll try to deal with this again.
Oh, the best of shorting in this time of Kinesh! The first time!
Rossi alive and kicking Kinesh!
It's the Belts MTI.
The VG stand out play for this team so far.
The VG will suffer to flee alongside crew.
His NV finally get by them.
And all could start to the series.
Pearl is a bit of a non-game.
Breeze was back in fourth.
Great adaptations of NV but more than that.
Inspired.
Took over the game.
Certainly from NV.
A different point.
Multiple of their players.
Just displaying how sick they are individually.
And that's basically a point you land on every time you watch an enemy game and they win everybody gets there
moments to shine as far as
Even goes
Really started going crazy from that two into for years well, but this and I got to say respect the crew
This team has been playing together for a week just allowing together various challenges players from
Latte and America's and they and we're close against fury
The points against Envy were sped, he's got a legit perspective, one thing, but now they'll fall to the level bracket as Envy stays in the middle bracket still fighting for their chance to represent Adam Masters.
What a game! We'll have our horizon post match anyway with just a moment.
Hello, welcome back.
This is your Verizon post.
much into you and I do have a Rossi from envy with me, first of all, congratulation, this
is a really close series. We saw a lot of adaptations and once again a lot of individual
performances from your team, what was the mindset heading into this match against Krueve?
Just play our game. We have a big problem with that as you can see in the first map, so
they just always the same thing, like we tripled down, picked them this, every loss
the three times in a row now. So we just every time it's the same talk, the guys just
just swing them like just kill them you know we have the good aim so just shoot them
all right just more firepower now sometimes that's just the solution
I hear that so often from players and coaches which is good we've got to play our game
we've got to play our game what easier game is it just run it down is it just a
dressing in or like what's the nuance what do the people out there not know what do we
not see no what you see is what you get like we're just so there's nothing there's
nothing crazy not I mean not to the coaches do a lot of work like stunner walk in like
They're really important honestly without these guys like I know we'd lose like all these matches
So they're very important so I can shout out. There is a little bit of methods of the madness
But it is this basic guys like just pay ranked like swing them shoot them make sure your aim is good
You know basic communication. That's it
Talking of communication. I mean you have IGL experience right how involved you get because you and Kassney
They're like slotting into this team and like I guess there is like the pre-existing kind of
the structure that they have. Are you getting involved at all in the calling and
and running and anything?
No, really. Sometimes I have a read and we'll say that. We have a system where it's just like
ranked. Anymore could call the IGL role. The read matches where the casual have an idea.
A lot of the breeze is like breeze sometimes perl anytime. You'll see something random.
It could be casual. It could be inspired. It could be me. It could be egg. Poppin is the
final say, but if someone has a read, we always go with that. I mean, I'm more
just like the dad on the team where it's like guys remember we have to do this
like sometimes we get a little too crazy and I'm just like guys just remember these simple rules
that we have but that's about it. Just raining them back in a while. There's a lot of fun to
watch you guys to play and so far it's a success. You have either cloud 9 or Olivia Don coming up
next. Is there a preference for you personally of her to team or does it not really matter?
They both kicked me so it doesn't really matter who we play so we fun regardless. I mean
I mean, every match is fun.
I have no bad blood or anything like that,
but it is kind of funny that God works
in mysterious ways that I have to play.
Full, it keeps like coming in the same season.
It's good for us.
That's like a free and narrative
where we can run away from some grudge action in there.
So thank you so much for joining me.
Best of luck in the next match.
We're not heading back to the desk for a few words.
And of course, to get ready for our second match
off the day.
Yes, welcome back, we're here with Inspire
after a big win there.
in the middle graphic here.
I just want to get impressions from you
because it's all as I was going to get
by the way, I'm going to get you.
It felt like you guys were really able to channel
your style in this game.
Those last two maps really looked like I was
watching and essentially did.
Is there anything you felt like
led to you being able to kind of fully invest in that?
The one thing I might mind I was repeating all day
was just running for calves.
Like, that's our better on the team now.
And I know how much that went into them.
And I just said to them, like, I got you today.
But if we play under these, you got me.
Yeah, go for it.
Go for the Pats of Old History, back to the Baby G.
Taste of the New York Club.
Who is that guy?
I don't even remember.
But I think we're going to have one of your teammates
joining in just a second, but we can get started.
We have a little gain Q-dumb for you,
but you've ever done a blind ranking before.
No, I don't think I have.
So there's going to be a series of cards here.
Each and a love of valorant map on it.
You have to definitively rank it, 1-3-6.
Well, once you place it, you cannot change it after that.
so you're locked in and you won't know it's coming next.
And all the maps are available.
It's not just going to the pool to everything.
This will be last.
OK.
OK.
OK.
It's a good take.
Yeah.
Let's try.
It's going to happen.
So go ahead and grab a cue card for me.
And tell me where it's going.
Oh, fracture.
Raxial.
I love to go to a nail like I did this.
OK.
Where do you want it?
I'll put it at two.
I'll put it at two.
Well, sticky for you.
You're getting it.
No, that's too.
Just be real high.
Just even want to, but like, do not lose fracture,
safer back and back, maybe I'll hate it now with the nurse.
He's, he's just gonna rank the top six,
safer enough, no?
Okay, here's another way.
Hey man, hey man, it's good, sorry for that.
Sorry for that.
Where do you want that?
We'll put that up for a broken floor.
Hopefully, don't have to play Aspas on that.
Yeah?
Yeah?
You just asked them not to pick it.
Yeah, split.
Oh, good, good, good, good.
It's a classic, classic.
Excite. I've actually been liking this map playing a oh, I can't leave actually
Keep it almost had them let's do three number three. Okay, pretty highly right is there a map you have in mind
That you're saving for one. Oh, yeah, you have one well go ahead and pull
I cannot put that five or six. No, I guess. Yeah, we put this one. You're gonna
If you weren't doing this blind, where would you put it?
Oh, maybe like three.
Okay. So it's like middle high in the pool for you.
What do you like about blind?
I love the TPs, like, I don't know.
I just after the out of the two TPs just made the map,
more fun with rotation.
I respect the economy, the two very unique maps at your top two.
We got a very unique one.
The range. Wow.
That's number one for sure.
I didn't even know that was considered a map. Okay.
based off today. I saw Ask Bass doing like jumping the jumping course. Yeah. Yeah. We're gonna go and put this last.
Oh, oh. Oh. Oh.
Here it's on that. We've done the race. I did it today and I was terrible. I did it by the time.
Oh my god. We're not a no-movie. We've got a race for all sales. We're not seeing
destroy me. Yeah. Yeah. No. Two of our movement. What's your range guy? What's your one up with you?
Oh, yeah, I'm a range guy. It's like it's a little demon one-ask
Aim training. He did a little video. It's like the flick one two three, like
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you're one of them from a demon one video. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, do you want he's something in for a cloud nine and there's a chance you guys play them if they win the next few games
Yeah, the first time I met him in the arena here was in the bathroom
It was a great first impression which me good luck out there. We want two apps in our house
No, I said I could even want to guess. He didn't know that's enough. That's to be number five
Yeah, how do you feel that I got last? I had a couple of minds that I wanted to like put like one and last
So what we should know that
Last will have to be a sense because I think it was a
Yeah, it was a best but in the back of my head doing this I was like, you know
about 13.5%?
Yeah, that's fair.
You're making all the callbacks
to like three years ago with that memory.
It's traumatized.
What?
Can I take a peek at these?
Yeah, you can show what you didn't get full.
Okay, I didn't get icebox.
Where would that have been?
Low high, there's gonna be a general vibe.
Oh man.
The two change made that math very great.
It changed the entire macro again.
So we're gonna have to put that out of five.
Okay.
I'm gonna talk about it more and more about it if you give me your picture on one of these.
Oh, sense?
What is that?
Give me one more map and where she would have it.
Oh, yeah, that's sense.
That's not what you mean.
99 put all the way down.
Don't remember the thing.
Don't remember the thing.
Just throw it down.
Well, thank you so much for joining us in Spire.
And congrats again on the way excited to watch them.
That's your campaign here in the middle for active.
I appreciate you guys.
Have you found them here?
Of course.
I'm out.
Yeah.
You're out of here.
Coming up next.
Let me talk to Versailles.
You're out of here.
You won't want to mess this one, stick around.
You'll ping-pong?
I think we'll find out that in the 90s we'll see a lot of confiante.
They're a good team.
But I think we'll find out if there's anything we can do.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!
No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
No, no, no, no!
So I'm always a shone competition.
I just am an extra factor here on that.
The Spanish Spanish is the best part of the world,
I'm not a much better singer than we are in the press,
and we're really very confident for the role
of the Spanish Premino, a wide-ranging challenge.
Welcome back to Kickoff and our second middle bracket match
of this Saturday.
It's levy a ton facing off against the cloud nine right off the top.
We have to acknowledge what is really the elephant in the home for this match.
And that's the fact that unfortunately, oxyinsides is step away due to a family emergency
and we'll not be able to play today.
We obviously wish him the absolute best and hope that he can be back playing with cloud nine
soon as we know that he and the team would absolutely want.
But in the interim, demon one, we'll be stepping into the roster.
as kind of the super sub that he has become.
To hear more from Demon One, let's check in with him,
he and Coach Amy are standing by with Sony.
Amy, you have Demon One coming in. This is super sub to day. Obviously, a lot of flexibility to do work with
Thueless for his control of the second, played senty recently as well. How are you going to use him
in today's match? He's going to play Breach on every month. No, but certainly he's, we're just going to
Keep it nice and simple. He's in a filling for oxy and he's got great aim.
It was good as oxy. He's got a really good game knowledge and he's been a pleasure to work
of so far so he's going to keep it natural and see how it flows.
Nice. Getting cast up right before you match. It's got a few good demon wanted. It's so great to
see you back here as well. How you going to approach his opportunity to once again show
that you belong on this stage.
Obviously, I'm super happy to be part of an opportunity to finally have a TV here.
I want to see my best. We're doing this for oxy. That's my guy into two.
I played against a lot, and through to you, so I'll do it for him here.
Thank you guys so much. Best of luck in today's match.
It's cool to see that relationship between those two players as Demon 1 steps in.
There was a time when LFT Oxi and Demon 1, I think, were the two most feared names.
It was still kind of unknowns when you're cut into a rankserver at the top level.
And Demon 1, I think, is really branded himself, Morda, as these super-submers.
If this is something like his fourth partner team,
he is played more.
That's what an anyone else.
So what can we expect for him?
He's done a great job.
He has a lot of experience.
He has a lot of different ideas for sure coming into it.
And he's done a really good job playing a lot of different roles.
We saw him a lot on the set of and we saw him as a course.
The duelist.
We brings a lot of that firepower.
A lot of that energy too.
And you always want to have someone like Dean and one,
at least if they're filling in, being part of your team.
Yeah, most recently saw him at Champs with DRX play.
Yeah, the Sentinel role like you were talking about,
I think he's going to be much happier now
that he gets to install off the newest of the time.
Yeah, he gets to go keep frying on the Sentinel.
He was.
Yeah, he was.
Yeah, I do even want to think it's interesting
to watch this journey, I'm going to like, too,
because he's played so many different roles throughout all
of this, but do you think that makes him more of an asset
when he gets to be put into these substitute positions?
I first had things like he's the super subverives
and players like how easy he is to kind of slot into whatever he's doing.
It's still slatsability, it shows adaptability,
and that's really amazing qualities to have in a player.
Well, let's move back now to that first game
for Cloud Mountain in the first week
where after starting all right,
they then went up against NRG,
and this game was pretty brutal.
NRG really dominated C9 here.
How do we walk away from that game, Chris G?
Was this you played the world champs unlucky?
Yeah.
Or is there more to it?
Well, luckily we can walk away from it.
C9 were limping out in that one.
It was a misery for them.
I think the only real bright spot,
Gorsy Nine was Zepa's individual performance
where he continues to have and it's just pre-ordained.
It's pre-ordained, but at the end of the day,
C9 just, yeah, unlucky, you match against the champs.
I mean, I feel like you put any one of these teams
against NRG, they looked really dominant.
And I think that I don't want to focus too much on the loss,
but everything that we saw within that,
we saw that the team was capable of having that resilience
and deal with they come back, even though it was a fake combat.
I think what I've seen so far from cloud nine,
I like watching them play.
I like their macro, I like the aggression.
I wish they kind of started off a little bit more aggressive
in their early mountains.
They find a lot more success in my opinion,
just because they do kind of have to adapt
into that later.
Well, with this team coming,
and I think we're starting to learn
what the style is of cloud nine,
with the Zelsa set the helmet.
One kind of continuation has been them
picking breach really more than anyone else.
I know back in the day you played
a lot of the point called some of your teams,
But he was out of the metaphor a long time.
Yeah.
Why do you think Cloud Nine is bringing him back
and what strengths do these kind of compositions have?
I think the thing that Breach struggled with a lot,
which is why he was out of metal,
was that he became kind of predictable.
A lot of this stunts boss became predictable.
But now when you pair him with a second initiator,
you tend to get a lot more proactive things.
You can play a lot more aggressive with that neon,
especially because the neon has their own stunts
to set themselves up.
You can play a lot more flexible because, again,
You are the second initiator, you have those flashes,
but a lot of what you use is really good for retake.
Really good for delay and really good for trap plays as well.
It's very powerful for set plays just in general, right?
Let's so for playing like the slow macro from app
and you get with a second smoke agent in the next.
But I think when you are playing double dualist comps,
a lot of maps, the bleach just gives you almost overwhelming hits.
We take it, et cetera.
And the best part is when you're dualist is super vocal.
as a breach, you can then follow up with everything that they need.
And I feel like on this team, you have
obviously a super, super lab of it.
Then you have Demon Lord who also likes to be super vocal
with a lot of what he wants to do, that aggression.
And so the follow-up really is there.
It's really hard to pay breach if you do this
and just kind of like full sending it
without saying anything.
But that is still, of course, the crops that they have
to have a subcoming, yeah, I talked to them all
fact they've had less than a week of practice
with these teens to the roster.
For you, I'm only seeing a different blue-ish player
come into the fray.
How would you be approaching this if you're cloud nine?
Just have them one for one into what?
Oxi was doing trying change for demon one.
What are you hoping to see?
I'm hoping to see kind of demon one step up
and like make the place that he wants to.
I think that's where they'll kind of thrive
and just having the rest of the team
that I support around him.
Listen to his ideas.
Support him anyway they can, especially with you too.
Yeah, well, let's move on now
to the opponent of cloud nine today.
That's of course, lovey aton who hasn't beaten cloud nine
since 2023, it's just impressive considering how good Cloud9
means that year, but it's still been a streak that they're very much going to have to break today.
Yeah, I mean, it's definitely been traveling them for a while that said, this is a very new
Levyacon squad coming off a top matchup against Hunter Thieves, of course, but I think
they're going to definitely have taken that time to now prepare for a C9 that's also coming off
of a rough or short.
I feel like when you think of Lab, you always think of
explosiveness and fracking power.
And I feel like right now, Lab, they do have that down.
They just have to solidify a lot of their play style,
especially against a team that's so by the book like
CNI.
Yeah, I think getting the play style on board and also getting
some of their individual players, likes the guy that I was
really expecting to step up and still, I am looking
at today to try and turn things around compared to
week one to now too.
Okay, so we were willing to wipe away what happened with
We've caught mind losing to NRG.
We've had solid 100-ducative look.
Are you willing to just move past that game for love, Emily?
I'm a little more hesitant, too.
Like, I think love kind of went into a under-somating 100-ducative
a little bit.
But I do really like the chemistry that they've had.
You know, you have two players on the academy.
You have two players that are main on the roster.
And spike kind of coming in and sliding and supporting them.
And one thing that I really like seeing them do
is their micro team fights, their micro decisions.
They're really good at bouncing off of each other.
I just think they do have to get a little bit more of the mackert and I'm coming a little more prepared for whatever map they're not to play.
Let's go back out to the sewing and hear a little bit more about Levy and Tom from their IGL.
Okay.
Can you guys play to really close match last week against a very strong opponent?
It was a loss but still the performance was there.
Did that give you or are there still confidence in your roster because you're currently not playing with the full roster?
Yeah, I will say, looking at the rights that I always like to tell my players who have confidence.
We've been playing very good on
Scrims, so we saw that a lot afterwards, how we play like very like I mean
I don't want to take credit out of 100 T-Boatplay very bad, so after we look
All those mistakes everyone's like okay, let's not do this again
So everyone's like very confident now
Right, losing his learning best of luck today
You're gonna have to see what's been learned for Sato
So, a player in his sophomore year now in VCT America's year really made waves coming in
alongside, okay, honest with this lovely, a ton roster thus far.
I want to look at him now from that first game from what we've expected thus far.
What have you seen, Emily, from the base guy that's maybe different or improved from
the start of the last year, or do you think there's no more more?
I think there's still more room from movement, obviously.
You know, I think he had what, 16 first steps in that best of the time, and that's kind of
a tough stat to face.
One thing that I did like is his confidence, like I felt like he was willing to fight and take space under any circumstance
No matter what if he was so trusting that it's he would kind of follow-up
Convert that space go into an ex-ec after that or even just get the trades off of him
So it was nice to see yeah, absolutely and I
I really think this guy has so much more room to go on this team
I think Sautu came in and played barely half a year right?
I can do a whole lot more for this team
I think that, unfortunately, a hundred of you said just had a really good, really good
game plan to shut down a lot of his injuries.
Well, two teams coming off the back of a rough loss to NRG and a hundred of thieves who are
respectively, but a chance to bounce back in the middle bracket, Levy-A-Ton, Kyle-Nine,
I'm Melkick, things off with Bren and Sajou after the break.
We've got two East Boards and Demi Brens coming together
to create a series of products for East Boards for the biggest stages.
To be continued...
of the day and La Vieja town versus Cloud 9 bound to be explosive as well in the amount of
firepower that we got to these teams as well.
But La Vieja town as well is the whole wheel and there was a squad that caught between, you
know, a rock and a half-place almost at the time being because they're waiting for, you
know, 28 to get neon end to get the full roster ready and going and the roles were
a bit such a rounder as a result of it, right?
But it's almost, you know, it's hard pressed right now because they would like to practice
with their usual roles.
But they feel almost inclined to try and power through it because two wins means that
you will be still in that middle bracket with time bought for the match to be played with your
full strength roster with neon in. Right, and that's absolutely the key from Levy & Towns
perspective. If they can win here against Cloud 9 and Envy, they're getting neon in,
which is the same as if they lose this game, except you have an extra life available with only
that one strike taking in the middle bracket. And for Cloud 9's perspective, I mean,
they're looking to integrate Demon 1, it's going to be honestly so intriguing to see this guy play,
He's one of the biggest names that we have, I think, in Valorant, and yet he's been
notably absent and so much so many questions about whether he's going to be able to play
and this obviously not a fair judge of his potential, but you know, awesome to see him
integrated into the squad admittedly and extremely sad circumstances for Cloud9 and for Oxi.
And our condolences as well as go out to Oxi and his family at this time.
team and one. A lot of people being talking about him as a player with, I mean, I was
looking at kind of the discourse on Lion, I guess, which is my mistake. First mistake,
number one. But around him as a player, right? Because he has this reputation around
of these potentially burnt bridges. But one of the things I noticed that, you know, when
G2 were making that decision, where did he pick up team and one, or maybe very, right?
Yeah. I noticed that when they picked, maybe very, he was actively trying, he's been
trying to fill in these intangible qualities that since then he's found
like he's been missing, but you know he's been given another chance as well
for filling here in Card 9. But he put him on the knee on so to actually just
try to fit the roles to where, you know, we were kind of speculating where
we would fit a little bit more normally pennies going to be playing on that
more passive position as a central but taking up the dualist mantle.
And demon 1 is quite a calculated play in terms of way once it takes
fight so the chamber makes a lot of sense for him. Yeah, I think this is
really sensible for Card 9. But it does kind of go opposite to what
What Amy was saying actually during the interview with so we just earlier on, where Amy was saying we're just going to have him slot straight into oxies position.
As you say, that is not what we're seeing on him.
Yeah, he's hiding the intent.
But at the same time, this makes way more sense to me, because I mean, demon one.
If you look at how many games he's played on chamber compared to everything else in his career, it's staggering.
Because this guy was a chamber one trick before that was cool.
I mean, I pulled the numbers for you.
Don't have him off the top of the air, but here we go. He's played, I mean, the agent he's famous for at the tier 1 level of jet.
He's played 90 maps of jet.
Chamber he's played 145 maps. Wow, of chamber in his career.
It's going to get his chance to step up very early on.
He's going to fight with his take in and just the micro adjustment in the aim.
He sits, he sits down, battle under substitutes here.
Okay, access was playing quite passively, actually, in the match that they had against 100 thieves.
because Cryo was all over it and it might be similar here.
Sanamo's could be laid down a bit of a trap to see what a nice layer of things are,
but Leather took this one to fight forwards on the hat with the flashes and big reveal,
but we did it with nothing in the face of all these guns. Very cool protocol,
actually popping through your own smoke to get out and put pressure on these outplayers.
Something that's seen I need to do in 23 actually. I'm expected at all.
Yes, that's even one.
I'm trying to get my face out.
Do so, there's effort.
Trying to be in a corner to move in.
Avoid a lot of toads, but it will go down as a result of it.
So, cautious round overall, live.
If you lose the first player, but...
Try no way forwards anyway.
Four players have a line that an open side on P.
And the team play P in the difference.
At the opener, that's just a single individual at you,
but then, live, never allowed another fight to be a 1B1.
And I don't think they're going to offer Vic too many of the end here.
And here, three players, all playing is a packing be-link, only spike alone, and he's never going to take contact in a way that Vix got out of an opportunity.
King's spot in that cross.
Does look fairly check-made in here, and this company is nasty in post-plants once he gets rifle rounds, and they have more utility online.
I think it's a good feeling.
I think it's a good feeling.
I don't think it's a good feeling.
But two of the tightest really over here.
You've got to be really sharp and thick.
Oh, wow.
There.
So, pistol round for Olivia Time to start.
It's the team that we were kind of mentioning at the beginning.
But they do want to have to really really strong star here because they wouldn't
this match.
Exactly.
Get out of the team.
We're being able to get in the end.
They would take one more win.
But that's a crucial element to be on us because if they lose,
sure you get in the end.
But at what cost, right?
right here in the lowest of lowest brackets.
We have no more second chance.
It's kind of single elimination tournament at that point.
With your full roster.
So you'd like to avoid that as much as possible.
But end of the day, the land project this year always
new that Picoff was going to be the most difficult part.
Yeah.
Because no disrespect to Pax S.
But he on his way, potential staff player
that you are adding into your team.
Pax S. Listen, credit term has been playing pretty well.
Yeah.
He's been so...
But he has a very different style I think a little bit more sat back a little bit more
controlled I do expect anyone to be a bit of an outcase once he gets added into this
thing but a full explosive power that's just waiting to be tapped into on Levia
Town where it's actually in calling from King generally and we've only seen to watch
that so it's early days but it's been slow and very slow and strong as one of the slow
corners that we saw plus any of the reach for actually so far.
I'm not really making an active effort to click it.
Just be watching the boaster pods.
Yeah.
Hopefully not playing too slow, though.
Oh, with this kind of composition, you've at least got to get into postplants.
And see mine.
Probably going to be in a situation here where they're looking to...
I mean...
I mean...
You look at a good path, you do not want to generate their roles, do you?
No, absolutely not.
I mean, Spike is quite close to that old command.
Yeah, you throw the ghost and let it go crazy. Yeah multiple players you don't want to get
Come on line early here it comes
It's one that's a shock
I'm pretty good for you go there. Okay, that's spectacular from spike
Just running there and tomorrow. It's too. We actually looked at best case scenario
It would be a time very healthy bonus round of the give me a go and two and a much better beginning than when that we were watching them in the hundred feet
You're going to win the pistols and then get a great.
Just obliterated in the second half.
And then get the snowballed against.
As this is the exact opposite situation to me.
And you've had a pretty big tool.
Because you're going to say in a prior...
Bulldogs, Phantom.
Can buy up into the rest of this one.
This is...
It's the hardest part of the bonus round.
You can look against the rifle, so it happens to be a tight place, it's opportunity to see if they can
ship them down.
Nice, it's an early.
Shoot it right off there, but now it was to be a completely speed up, but I don't come out.
Flying towards there, all the location they're going to be moving towards there is a
bunch of jackpot, but that box was a bit counter for me, and that was just fighting them
to the knees, and there will be a rest in-stand, and a lot of them to the flank here.
I saw it's the fight nicely done.
Come collect it there, brings it to that three versus three now for it. It's a cloud 9 potentially.
I'll make your movement. Those were all of this site, and I'll always be a man some utility.
Throw it out. Team one.
See if you can again. Still in fine, these fights once more. Sats have turned up.
They play as a brief fight, ding through the wall. A lot of damage done in the YouTube.
He's going to really just push them out of the picture. It will be no fun if it is one.
Zephyr's gonna just really hold it down to eat and task that's laid out in front of him here
So the spider to the angels that live had big tools big weapons as well going into their bonus
It's navigated well by cloud nine. It is it's those two kills actually from demon one sub player coming in hello
Diabolical from you absolutely die of olical. These two kills are always in the punishment spike as he's raised nothing
the spike can do about it obviously but demon one catching the perfect time and around the back
stop and fairly easily winning the duel against I think it was king
person in real time there
not much you do though if you're on setup I'm not a big fan of teams trying to force the
A fight on the attack side through that astroset up you've seen a few teams go for it
But if you're actually worth really hard for us in it, then again, it gets crew as well.
It's really difficult. It favors the defenders so heavily.
I'm out of here.
Happy Premium being placed up in the area of the map.
Make sure that we all too.
Just deny it away from the attackers.
Below is just looking to make the condition clear away.
In a drone, it does make you feel like okay,
well, potentially the scaling of the vakities. It has pulled a few players, rotations.
especially because Pety is just jiggle peaking all the way deep into a main and so he's fairly confident that Levin not ending a

And I do have the stack of bodies in the right place here
I'm just flying, just a bit of what you need to be alive there,
but last shot, King's room, stepping out of it.
Look at that!
Look at that!
Nice reposition, beautiful flash from Celsius as well.
Yeah, it's a 40-view tilt.
Certain of the sounds of the already angles here,
and for PXS and spikes in, not much you can do from a spot like this.
10 seconds left.
We're going to even two to two.
Pure save situation here, spike completely drop down.
King, I think making the wrong read there, in terms of where he should be ending
It was, you know, it's a difficult situation because you don't control landing of a main,
but after you've drawn to make so much noise over towards me,
you've made it feel like you've gone in that direction.
Yeah, maybe the path of police resist, but it's going to be stacked bodies over there.
Especially after the opening, the accurate just went so decisive in the way Cloud Run is going to be out.
But credit's Cloud Run?
I shall be, I was really in that show.
Follow in people in that direction.
to be able to reclaim one of the jungles there it is.
Chamber of the Chamber on the other side of the map,
by the way, towards B, but like I said,
B excess is a very passive chamber player.
It's just been holding these angles.
This is very similar to what you're doing
against Kryon, 100 thieves too.
And if you don't walk into it,
it's not controlling very much space.
But he is ready for the punish if you get overly aggressive.
And so that's something that Demo wants
to have to be aware of.
He's not going to have to walk on confidence,
a bow on here for Demo.
He's head in the bullet town when he's gonna rifle
Really just one type of back away I think oh, no
Right sits and disrespect to the way, but really get the most of it in a situation like our forcing live
Back in the way now the rubber of the project signals over here special
No, don't stick a bite up conversion pass and a part thing now into the side demon one
and I'm talking to play him but blows the ad as a well-trained,
there's a hell of a shot.
And this time, Cloud9 didn't have that information before they met.
So they didn't have the stack in the right place and forced to retake.
It's tough even though they've got decent weapons.
Some damage done to come to the left players,
knocked around with King and blows.
You can blow as they are, but like you said,
it's still up there.
Fire the battles, effort oh.
It's a crafting shot.
It's there's gonna be taking out there to you, tails, Zeppher!
He's taking over!
All it's up, it's up, it's a let the one who rip me up again.
I'm gonna force the issue with these fights, but
facts it side steps, it clings and blows are low, no, and they do not have the rifles to play with.
You'll sure, to at least pull a couple of seconds out of him, but
sales is gonna mistake the cash off, and his teammates to do the job, and
for that he's for Zepa, it comes alive!
Where did that come from?
That's astonishing stuff from Zepa, incredible utilitarian such as well, though.
I think the stun though only landed onto a single player in black holes, I don't know if it caught onto both of them.
I think he just hit a straight up to you. Oh, yeah, they're really behind
He's nasty business by Zephram. I combo in Zelpsi's Franklin grenade
Yeah, that's beautiful
Come in alive
Maybe I don't know because he's playing with Dima Wani feels like he's playing like against NRG
Somehow the sub-connection here
You cook them yeah, we'll get back here
He's at a decent beginning though, too.
Yeah, he more afraid it happens to take angles like this.
He's never left really in the flat shell.
The head support of the future is good.
It goes both ways.
They're doing one push, push it off the line, Vic.
Trying to supplement and help out.
Stay away down.
Lowes is found to put up.
He's talking to play in himself, but this is productivity.
And it's core cloud nine and not willing to let any stone be interned.
We'll see it all.
much space, it's possible.
Great flash day from Zelsis as well.
Supportive utility has been phenomenal on the KO.
We've seen that set played from other people before.
But Lev, we're not ready for it.
I don't think we've seen it from cloud nine as well.
I think they've probably added that to their arsenal.
Yeah.
After seeing other teams run it.
They've had a while, right?
Yeah?
Yeah, they have.
It's a really prep for this match.
Well, I mean, so of Lev.
Lev, one of those teams that, when you lose early on,
You get quite a break in this format.
Yeah.
Every time you lose you, you just have to sit there and
stew and wait to drop down a bracket.
It's a nice aspect though, because the pressure as well is not quite
the peak.
You know, the situation you lose on first game, you're not in the lower bracket of me.
Thirty seconds left.
Fighting for your life.
It's true.
But I think the pressure is starting to increase for quite a few of these squads.
Yeah.
I mean, it's just my chip.
If you lose this, you're straight down to the bottom.
Yeah.
Inevitably, there have to be a couple of teams that go zero and three.
So, what's going on here in that position where that's what they're fighting to avoid.
All right, suppose.
We'd only be the case for one out of two of these teams if they were in that position.
Yeah.
The time, tics down here, live force to resort back to the saves again, but Cloud
I'll show you some excellent additions that are over game plans.
Even with the latest additions, I'll be in one of the roles being swapped around, as they have.
There's a support of you too, we'll call it a flash, a peek.
Very nice stuff.
And that we want to go to the end.
We want to go to the end.
We want to go to the end.
It's all about a flash, it's all about a flash, it's all about a flash.
It's all about a utility.
It's all about a utility.
And the rate shocks for days.
There.
Did the job here looks like I've opted into the fight over the whole Zaman, and this could get bloody very quick.
Let's see if there's any difference there.
Let's set it up to the back!
What's the back of the box?
I'm out of here.
What did it do?
Very close to getting a punish on the Paniville.
Just trying to span through, based on saddle taking that area.
Yeah.
We need theory, you know, saddle, can dash through there in the skate.
If you take all of the A, it's free, you don't mind it.
But, okay, this time though, Sato survives.
And Levy time pushed back the defenders in that area.
So Clownine, I'm not gonna have such great information.
Did I have to use the drone to do it though,
and look where Vic is?
Yeah.
I'm not playing a part into this round
because I have to look like they're moving
up towards mid at least.
But, well, if they do look to go towards mid,
this is a nasty little trap set up.
You can afford to stack these bodies.
Like this, even one.
Make the trap set up to the base ass.
Wait, this is a bit of a strung-up.
BOOMS!
That's SAFTO!
They sit pennies else, they straight back down again.
I think they said they have to be good for two of that.
Team of War looking to clean it up.
I think it was a few more as well as that that right.
But players up onto the top.
Whoa!
This is a player.
Hungry.
The plan's functioning.
It's to shine all around.
He's got the three.
Remind me again why he's not in two on.
Intangibles back.
It's one of the aim.
It's never been in doubt.
I'm looking at a lot.
I'm looking at a lot.
I thought you showed a bit of a full kill as Cloud 9 get up to 5.
Locked in.
And I trapped late in a debate and switched didn't quite get the ball in the Cloud 9.
I was looking for necessarily, but even one step up.
Yeah, he can swing back in after he takes the TPL.
Back kill.
Back kill is filled.
A great awareness to fit out of the chambers.
On through the other side is the visible of that chaos.
Good.
agile as anything. That has forced the attack time out here. What's the
bit of an issue here for looking at time as well as they're struggling to find
bit of a way he's in. Here XS searching for answers in the stars over here.
Yeah. I'll move you just trying to absorb everything the owner is telling them.
Quite a lot of instruction being given here from the coach. He is very vocal.
He is very bald.
Where's that come from?
How are you just never said anyone to say it?
Yeah, I'm allowed to say this.
You are allowed to say it.
You do it to A-crack.
Well, it won't be soon. I'll be joining you.
Then we'll then review it.
They can play sport at different levels.
That's very good.
What's the money looking like here?
I mean, you can scrap together something,
especially if you've set up a piece of a buck here.
Yeah, it's you're looking good. Is it what are you looking through this fountains?
There's a caramelized game right now. It's like a heavy-friering
Hey, man push your place deep into being long. Kind of get that in boom. Well, what you're recognizing I think from this time out
It's the clown eye and they're getting very active in the middle of the map when they lose an extra minute
So when you push them away from a name they pick up
Art or you know, baby, baby's up or something like that. You gotta be worried about team on peeking early a double doors
The knife. Now that I get broken. I'm actually getting broken.
I was a bit go. He's on that full box out of the door.
That's nasty, I just spotted it. I'm assuming it's big.
But no, it's my spot for a ride.
I mean, the last thing I want to control that goes to mine.
I'm a tilde.
Yeah, it is.
Honestly, perhaps a very crucial element to this round.
We'll see how it plays out.
But again, make a whole reason for that line up.
Who's supposed to not be able to break it very deeply?
Or it's all.
And you're supposed to...
Why?
I'm not a sad piece.
A bit of a misplay by the excess play.
Listen, could think of credit to demon one again this aim has been on the point
Razor shark
It's a strange way to play it though, rather than just trying to hold the angle to get the punish, but this time didn't have the off
Fear in their hearts, and we didn't want it striking it straight into them. He's obliterating them
And they're getting so active as well, you know, he's changing up his positions. Always moving around
I'm going to need to one target, gearing up for Levy Attack, looking to salvage this operation as best as they can.
They've got three players to make, and he's still still going quick.
Sanvo is going to be committed, Zephyt.
position.
No, it's really skillful to fight for this.
I'm choosing to break the knife, because the position is very conscious here, if I Zephyt.
Any time being boss-forward.
What are sound cues he's laying them up?
And all for that angles, the rest of the guard line is easy business.
Oh, this is looking dominant, so real dominant.
And what a fantastic showcase, what a fun showcase of Demon 1's skill back here again.
Obviously, it's not for territory.
I was telling you at the beginning, he's played a 145 map total of change.
But this is, this is hip, this is...
Oh, that's cool.
Okay, now max.
Oh, that's it.
It's running out instructions as to where he wants to be more to play.
Now, usually, if the more one was integrated fully with this,
I think it's normally the chamber that would be saying,
I want to play here, I want to play down there.
You know, makes it things up, but when it's seen on system,
it's trying to even want to replace the player,
still finding this value that's impressive.
That ain't...
Can't really square it, let's take this fight,
this thing is to...
You know, let loose the spoiler handle to the player,
even one isn't a very sore spot here.
He said, ain't well, and ain't true, and we should give the two in with Zeppard and his butt!
They saw this straight in their faces!
A deadly duo from Cloud9!
One bullet for him.
They're really about the absolutely cold.
I'm sure he's relishing the opportunity to have this kind of impact.
It was, and the global exit from T1 Latter.
For a player who's managed to let the two for him.
Always max!
Yeah, if it's skip to beat, baby, let's go!
Yep.
It's really true, you've been saying it.
Focus, no.
He has been putting every huge amount of effort to get back to this level as well.
Yeah, definitely.
Not necessarily in terms of his individual skill, but one of these, this.
Plast it, think about your own play.
I'm gonna let the beat go!
I'm excited!
How am I crunching them?
This is a bi-arvalibi attack.
This mantle is diffuse, but in moments, no, it is.
So, time to catch a preview of the Vietan, every single thing that you try has been completely slapped out.
Credit to the coaches, credit to Zelsus as well, for having so many different looks on defense.
You can see the value here from all of the preset game plans, and how Zelsus has jumped straight into them.
Now, he's 4 and 2, but he's got 14 assists.
Yeah, I mean, that's absurd.
And those are not, you know, useless assist with the knife.
Because sometimes chaos will have a huge power assist.
It's just because it's in high-performance, aeropoint.
These are flashes, it's these are killer assists in terms of
Confirming those frags for the rest of his team with his flashblaves on the other side.
Like he's having insane impact incredibly active and it's full time again.
I mean, this is just the safe.
Looking for him to use to get back here.
And I mean, the spike is in the...
The change of the ship will locate you if you can't assess this, they'll be sharp.
If C9 fight over too much the country haven't used back into this round.
There they are.
The up here, but double tough.
Again, they've got their aim on the right lines for it 8-2.
Yeah, look at the scoreboard for some of these players.
We've been talking up Demwana Lock as he is.
Obviously, I'm going to fathast it beginning, but Zep is right there as well.
Put him astonishingly good rounds.
And being the rightful to factor the arm in a lot of these spots.
And his Phantom has been like a laser beam.
13 codes for both of them. We've only seven deaths.
Yeah. I did together.
I mean, around 11, it feels like the only opportunity the level had is a long guard.
It's got the old song line.
But this is one to take the day.
This one is play.
What was supposed to be, and considered this time around by Cloud9.
Not only the fight over towards EA.
Hang on.
What?
It says.
What?
What's the hop top here?
Look at the human eyes that they see if they can't get any sort of advantage, but they just give up the sight.
And one of the first times where I left, I found a great opportunity.
And they've just got in, they've got them last time.
But it wasn't very much as instance they avoided the travel.
It's Elsa's, what on the heels is gonna make his presence down on.
I pray mark, but it's not just under any sight like he exists to try to make the most of that piece.
You face the solos at your feet is uncomfortable, territory. The view of time they can't

They didn't have any opportunity to help.
They just post, they're looking at each other.
Once Apple was sticking the diffusive.
See, you take over and kill him.
Okay.
He's talking about that drill against PSA and Stores the Ender.
A pause from any in the booth, I mean, it's just, it's incredibly clean stuff, it really is, you can see the world's being put in.
Flash up at 6 on the end, but no mid default this round for Leviosa. There are so many places all you have to be worried about the trap.
They also don't have not seen Deem of One over towards Pete.
Insert of Sato.
And implies that they're going to come back over to what's being linked here, which is worrying.
And this is it. I mean, do you know what? Here's a drone. You've broken four.
Just look at on it.
Watch it.
I'll put it on it here.
Penny breaks it.
Four demon one to potentially get posted back up again. Many angers to account for, though, in a spot like this.
It's the rendezvous.
It's back to see how it's happening.
It's back.
Next.
A little respect that you, too.
Back, instantly the gaps being filled up again as you can see, the elses just jumps
spotting as you really can.
Of course that battery is now going to be utilized, might as well come on.
I'm afraid though, it's still going to go back in the B-direction.
Yeah, I can.
It's a sort of shadow.
I'm looking to see if Shadow can activate off the back of this potentially off the
sound queues.
It takes some space.
It's not quite though.
It's a beautifully called round by King actually, it's taken a little round
to go up there to be able to navigate something like this.
Are they confident enough to commit?
They've got to run.
They've got the reason. It's got the timing. Yeah, this is really bad

What is shot it's just being disgusting from start to finish for cloud nine and ten two is that score line
It was there and that's an amazing pre-fight towards the end.
I'm king having to chat with the rest of the team about what was going on there.
But a pop-up towards the end.
You've got to think when king just gets the freebie of Demon One landed in his lap.
He's favored in that with a pool still in hand.
But the rest of the team is amazed at how well Zep has been playing here.
One thing locked in the driven cloud line, leading and taking this map by storm so far.
Red Bull gives you wings.
I need your glass on a close shot
I gotta know if you want me to be the star
I wanna be the star
Then we go in the open
I need your glass on a close shot
I gotta know if you want me to be the star
Well, walking back here, cloud nine, have come out swinging in this matchup.
The term and not to be sent down to the lowest two early.
Now, I'm putting up one ahead of a fight against Olivia Tandard.
It was just struggling to find answers at all on that halve.
It was just domination.
Yeah, ten two.
They could even find their way into rounds.
The proactivity, I think, was cloud nine's greatest strength.
And I suspect that when we get onto the attack side, if there are too many rounds to even be played here,
see, man, we're getting really proactive in aggressive in their post-bun scenarios,
when we've seen them previously, too. Especially in that game against loud, if you think back.
I mean, the game against NRG, they didn't get a play.
No, that was not a match. She can't take anything away from that particular. That was a tier gap.
I can see the trap later, Shadow, recalling fact of it all as a pillar, the south

against punished for trying to take too much onto his shoulders.
I know that Demo one is down,
which means that that trip got in the flank is gone.
So King's got an opportunity here.
He's not over pushing though.
He's just holding, so he knows he haven't accident.
Yeah, seeing how he's cutting noise means
that you should not be over-flanking,
because they'll be looking for that.
Yeah.
He's calling critical information here
for the Levir-Tran players to stay grouped up,
stacked up over the wants to be.
And it ever received.
Some pointy action is going to be coming.
Come on.
We'll get him to our own.
He's going to be using it now.
He's teamed into it.
But there's immediately broken at that.
He's going to be running dry.
That's the raw aim.
That hasn't been missing so far.
But if you shot to the top, he doesn't go up this.
He excess.
She'll desell this.
Drop it it down.
Zepa.
To the plant.
It's not lying in extension now into this one.
But King rapidly approaching.
He's going to be tip-topping.
I think just turns it straight on him.
Stop it around to the side, now it's a 2v2.
I need 4v2 at close, 4s at the recoil start.
It's a blast and opens it up into the angles that the damage gun.
Surely surely you can't end up doing this one.
Hoping around and sound cues are made,
it's up just trying to play his life, but they know how low he is.
He access and caught out two inman.
That's why he's got a classic out.
Full run into the gunning on display, but he ends up pissed around.
Hard clear in the corner as well.
Well, figure out where's up, who is playing there finally?
Good morning.
And so the magic man has been shut down for God, no.
I was worried what King came around the flank and got this mantle so quickly, oh, yeah.
Big shut that one down fast.
It was danger there, even though letting you exactly where his else is, was called
in the finish to be.
They're not usually going to be that predictable, I don't think.
But I've had the raid.
King did a good job, just blocks in the main.
I'm going to put this around to be good for the left, can say that much.
It was trying to grab this one back all the way.
I mean, it has to begin with first around.
Feel like a broken rental to try to say in that book.
Here we go.
For cloud nine, making moves, gliding to the side, to trade my triggered.
Stocked and stunting, but a bit of fear here into the step of the view of the attorney.
I'm going to be forced to go back to more passive positions to solve.
Losing all that space towards connector.
The excess even force to drop off in a way. No one is on the be-long angle, but
Could be watching this one. Yeah, this set up is still really clean
And the excess has got a chance of picking off two on the entry.
Do I have anything back close? That shows you'll do a lot.
Good start. Well, there's a push-and-backer way to the side of the engine.
Does have his angles again he knows them well.
Well, well, we'll go down the regardless of after cloud 9 and there's a shorty in-back
cause, always danger.
Let's spot like this.
We're trying to have to be clean for it.
Smoke had committed and this is difficult, honestly.
It cuts up the angles and it makes it quite a close throw.
Exactly, we're trying to find a hoping for.
Slow down as a result of it, phase.
You can take it all this way.
Blank it up, you're still at the superior weapon ring.
We're seeing the day.
I have a bit of storm double salvo.
Time to blow it.
Time to take it.
It's ticking.
It's ticking.
I click like that!
Oh my goodness.
There's no chance.
I mean, we know this slow.
But you can't be losing around like that to the clock.
There's no chance.
Zeppher.
Perfect.
Let's go.
Ants.
Zepper perfect internal timer.
Wow.
Okay.
Why is that technically a 1v4?
I haven't been a technical 1v5,
but I wasn't sure any attention to exactly how many people were alive there.
1v5.
1v5.
Yeah.
Oh, that's ridiculous.
That is a bit easy.
Let's say...
I gotta get rid of the planet as well, though.
It's not...
Let's go, baby!
Yeah.
Fuck it, go!
I don't know, but I'm doing a good job, I think, stalling out.
I think it's a very tricky for Lev, it's tragic for them though.
I mean, it's exactly the same thing that was happening to them.
I'll be a different mechanic, but the same thing that was happening to them against hundred D's.
When the pistol loses a follow-up.
The X6.
Be hearing.
One of these suits that's coming in play tonight.
Side step, one of these, I'm the captain.
Open, one of them who was in a completely different place.
He's forced to play into this fight!
That was hard!
It's taking my storm!
He's so blind there as well.
It's not sure but I think now it spikes in.
Flash it, pick up it up at the top.
And it's just a missed timing on the peak.
That's a small round here. This will be cloud on up as well.
There you are.
Oh, the blitzin.
Yeah, extremely determined.
The lead time, the same issues.
Ah, by Sato, he's not going to get it one V5.
You don't see two of those at the same day.
We give them the chance.
The rest single dash.
I just want to reclaim the weapon and...
...jiff back away hopefully saving it.
I don't know.
Yeah, force in the issue.
But for Livia town, I mean, this is being a recurring issue that we were...
You know, it's not quite an narrative yet.
But this cautious activity that level is just putting on display, right?
I can see what it goes in there.
They don't want to let anything slip.
They don't want to make mistakes.
stakes that I want to lose, but then sometimes too much caution, you can play too slow.
Yeah, you have a opportunity to give them a 20-year position to be sore.
To be honest, I don't think that was the biggest problem for them on their attack side.
Here it is, spike flash, up over the top or at team block.
I mean, you know, on one side, that's a bit rough.
That could have been an opportunity to pay excess.
Yeah, on the other side of things, he's their sub player.
He's not going to have as much coordination, so...
I can't hold him, yeah, you can't hold him.
That's what's happening here.
You got two teams, play with a sub,
see none with even less time.
And yeah, they're with a 12-3, so...
That's what they need to make you feel under like it's a 12-3.
This is all in.
Desperate gambit towards the tail end of this map.
Do V3 still could be one of our full of your time?
The map simply isn't, though, is it?
I mean, they're not going to run back nine in a row
with how they've been playing.
See nine of very funny control on the reporters might think as well
Yeah, something that we've been talking about too much, but this is this is Leb's pick
This is where Leb thought they're the best chance of winning this series
My god
See none of my not all them yeah level of focus
Try to be remaining a cloud nine sometimes the team that let it couple around slip which is being
I'm gonna focus really to you expect very, very best and that is a 13-3 finish for opening map.
Levea Town's map pick worth saying and we go on to split as an X-Morning Cloud 9,
I'm not messing around, they're not playing any games.
But try to wrap this one up.
It's a great showing.
It's a fantastic outing.
Demon 1 integrated into the team.
Funtasy.
I'd love have got a rough time in this game if they want to try to come back on the next two maps because they were shut out completely.
And how the hell do you dig deep and just bring this one back to me?
They go slap like this.
This was the cloud eye to eco.
Yeah.
Throw it on top of every single round essentially.
Only the pistol rounds that they let slip.
But it was just clean as anything.
The light torch for cloud eye.
Now we look forward to smudders on the other side of things. You know you don't want to miss that ones if you don't go anywhere
Not in watchin' when they seem, what they seem, what they seem, what they seem, what they seem, what they seem, what they seem, what they seem, what they seem.
Not in watchin' put out of views for real, just like our real for real.
Gotta re-out the bill, we got a massive deal, hold out our facts, we'll facts, we'll facts for real.
Major League World Series game seven, hold out a cat for real, we gotta be good.
I just did his goal for fun, I had for run that we gotta get to it.
And hustle and we gotta get to the fund.
We did see that roll swap, right?
We did talk a little bit about that before it is much is that something you've been investing a lot of times since you knew that the one is coming in
Is that what you kind of kind of will be practicing with?
We practice this week, but it's just easier to slot them into the chamber. Penny knows everything we do in our system
What has chamber just gets to do his own thing with him reason so just easy to put them in and just say go shoot
Well, that worked out for you best of luck in his second match
Yeah, since it's a very dominant win for Cloud 9 to step off this game with a substitute
in the roster knowing less than demon don't really proving to be the super sub today, but
I want to start by diving into what Amy was talking about there with that role change
for the penny on the dive duelist Oxie's role and letting demon one slot into his chamber
instead seems like that was the right call.
Yeah, I mean, it makes a lot of sense too.
I don't know why, and I didn't think about it,
because, yeah, Penny doesn't know everything
that they already do is, it makes sense
that I'm kind of pick up that role
where they do have a lot of plays around.
But we got to see a demon one, just do his own thing
and have the rest of the team supporting him.
They felt like any time he wanted to make space
or take a certain feet, it was like,
yes, man, go do it, you got it.
I believe in you.
I think what was really nice too is you can just tell
that demon one was like, demon one was like,
oh, I want to go here.
Yeah, I'm there, just like, hell yeah, let's do it.
It wasn't really well for them.
Let's talk about that too.
sort of really highlighting a lot when we were talking about this game was how the macros shifted
with demon 1 in. How do you feel like they were able to integrate him so well what would
be doing? It was pretty not the best since even 1. It really felt like they were playing a different
setup every round on their defense and I think a lot of that does include the fact that
demon 1 kind of called out working 1 and to build a lot of the time too we just see
self-traced following him around adding on these little small drop plays with the flash of
to remain taking that make the troll or whether you want to pee pee me or taking that.
Yeah, one thing is that they were so twisted there adaptations too, right?
Like, you know what I'm saying?
They had just like this rolling art when they were looking
like they were kind of heading towards the Jeep, right?
So that's the thing.
They never stayed static on the map.
Yeah.
They constantly move.
Is something that didn't work out for them?
They, okay, whatever, leave it be.
They go take mid-presum thing.
Go take be long times.
And they were always doing something.
Yeah, they were really proactive with everything they did.
They didn't even have someone slotting in with the chamber
and you're kind of setting them up for success.
that's pretty thick and then patting on the other side, I mean, he really played well on that,
you know, too. I think people will forget that throughout his career, he has played that
down. I do, it's quite a lot, including it. I believe he was something in for, for
like when he was stepping up through that. Yeah, he was like controller. Yeah, kind of
luck to the road. Yeah. There's a lot of players who have done basically everything on this
roster for Cloud 9. And I think one of them that you have to look at as well, is Zeffa, of course,
who was just so, oh my god, this game. Yeah, it feels so good to see him pop off when they're
actually winning two specifically.
Like it's like, you know, I'm doing all this work.
And it's what it's like, you're turning it loose.
Yeah, that, I mean, it's tough.
It's a tough kind of curse to have.
But no, it must feel so rewarding.
And he was playing so well.
I think we even saw a Zepa E-sit standpoint.
Yeah, we did.
Zepa A's Zepa Clutch.
He was doing everything.
He was on fire.
It's fighting out.
And his E-sit was on point.
Oh, the Tejo.
Yeah, this is such a difference as, well.
And let's start talking a little bit about where we're going
into the future for the rest of the maps of the series.
As the casters were really bringing up, this was a cloud 9, not even playing on their own
map pick.
Now we get to go into this split and I want to ask again about those roles.
Do you think just seeing this demon 1 centi, Penny Girls to the dive duelist, is that
what you expect to continue to answer?
For sure.
I mean, I'm definitely expecting another chamber here for a demon 1.
I think it just makes so much sense when you have someone who's able to be that aggressive,
but also be so self-sustainable, it works magic.
I'm going to also just the impact we saw with the off and on split.
You can really do that and work that off on both sides to get those first picks.
And it felt like whenever they were getting those first picks,
they also weren't backing off.
They were continuing fighting whatever felt right.
And then I think love struggled against them.
Yeah, they had the confidence to go take those peaks.
And I give a lot of that was because of that chamber.
I do want to turn attention though to love your tone because that is a brutal way to start.
Sure, they also have a sub in the roster, but this is a team with pretty high expectations
to get destroyed like that on Pearl.
Is there anything that you can point to that you felt like
it was really going wrong in that game for love of your time?
It just felt like they were really getting shut down on all the choke points.
Like every traplay was there.
They just need to give it a little bit more time on the beginning of their defaults.
Making sure they're playing a little bit slower.
Trying to find the information that they can get.
And making sure they know, hey, they're setting up for a mid traplay.
Let's go make pressure somewhere else.
Make sure they waste a lot of that KLE.
Yeah, and I think a big part of that is that they were kind of lacking information, right?
They didn't really know what scene I was doing, and every time they thought that they did, and that they counter that,
you'd see, see, and I'm doing something else, picking off your lurk at every single time.
It felt like no matter what Lev did, see, and I had an answer that they just weren't ready for.
Yeah. Yeah. What kind of discussions would you want to see in that back room now for,
for a love of you, Tom, for the IGL, for the coach looking to the rest of the series?
You're the IGL, you're my IGL girl.
I was literally just thinking like for me
definitely talking a little bit about our defaults
making sure that we're getting a lot of that information like you said
but make sure we're also playing a little bit slower fully understanding what they're doing
because like we said we saw a lot of aggression from cloud nine
and I don't think they're going to stop that any time soon
a lot of pushing on the defense a lot of math control
I think just letting them play into you making sure you're ready for those setups
and not just standing there kind of in mid getting caught up guard by the flash
I also just want to see them like being a little bit more aggressive I'd say and I know it kind of
count as the whole get-in-boating, but I think they have to react faster. As soon as you push them off,
the way that's seen on is playing by playing super adaptive and moving around the map.
Well, you have to take advantage of the space that you get and I didn't really see that.
Yeah, I feel like that kind of does play into what I think, because you play a little bit
pattern. You see what they're doing and then you react right away. So yeah, I see what you're saying.
I agree that maybe a little bit more aggression could be good, but they just need to
not lose confidence. That's the biggest thing here. Talking about the split for cloud
9 that we talked a bit in the pre-show about how much you've been indexing into this
breach as a pick since the changes to that agent. This is a strong suit for the agent back in
the day, but with double controller coming into the meta, it changes a little bit. So I'm
very curious to see what cloud 9 is going to do, but the fixture is definitely on
Mavieeton, a tough nap one. I want to hear what their coach has to say going into the second.
Another good shot down pretty hard on your map is there any value in that break when
he talked to your players to even revisit that map one or where you just strictly focused
on what happened in that team.
Sure, we took a little bit about what happened.
I don't think that we play that poorly.
I think that we play actually better than against 100 tips.
It's good, it's no both the game, you know.
But I think that the boys are okay.
I have a champion that the second round is going to be better.
We are prepared to win to one.
I don't, keeping up that positivity best of luck.
Nice years and games like there.
Now I was going to listen in the bond with the calls
on the scene right inside during that last night.
If you're a demon, it's integrating into the roster.
And honestly, it seemed seamless out of the team.
I was very impressed with what Celsius was able to do
in terms of incorporating demon 1 into the team.
He gave a lot of freedom, especially on defense
for demon 1 to call where he wanted to play early on in the rounds.
And then from that positioning, where demon 1 wanted to play,
Celsius was building really good rounds.
So a few times when he was like, actually,
no, I've got the hard grid.
I want to do it my way.
It worked out great.
And then he lets demon 1 do what he wants to do
around after.
And honestly, it just was perfect out of the C9 camp.
I also think one of the great things demon one was bringing within the rounds.
Not just his ideas, pre-round.
It was whenever he was next to a teammate, he was giving great microcoms, anti-flashcoms,
swingcoms, everything to make sure that he was playing perfectly in tandem with the person
that's got his back.
That's really it for me.
And Brendan Joss, you're going to be back after this map for a short-earle.
We're going to be back around two after a short break.
I'm all scattered.
100 better comms than C9.
I think this version of CNN's will jump from last year because I think the roles can be
a lot more flexible.
I think Penny can play Dolas and play the Sentir role, which gives us a lot of different
variables of all playing.
Even as Alcissus, he's got experience under his belt with winning Madrid in 2024 and kind
of being a solid player and VCT man is in general.
So I think it gives us a little more experience
where we're lacking the last year.
I feel like a lot of us were rookies or returning,
but generally still have that experience.
So I think the analysis really comes in
and helps us become a better team in general.
Let's get back to it then here, Cloud9, which is absolutely relentless on our first opening
map.
We'll see you in a few seconds.
We'll see you in a few seconds.
Yeah, there's spoilers in there.
Well, it's a lot of times revealed.
Back to the chamber again.
It's kind of expected, I think, as well.
I mean, any was throwing in.
Is it sub-defuge?
Is it called for espionage?
It's up to you to be honest to decide.
But he didn't say that you're going to keep it simple.
In the off season though, Cloud9 will play in double-duelist on this map.
So I don't know whether they make this a just from already, and we just haven't seen them play on split.
But it's cool to see.
Cool to see for sure, because this is super viable, and you get demon wanted his absolute best.
He definitely too.
For La Vieuzando, they are going to be looking to see if they can terrain this from back.
I mean, they got slapped around, see if they can change their demeanor.
I mean, if there's any sort of bright spots whatsoever,
I was just looking at the last time La Vieuzando played on split as far.
I mean, it's a drop of 24 kills as well.
I'm a scene of eating,
continue to be a bit of a price by four this team.
But can they eat more than just individuals?
I think stepping up, you're going to need an entire real attitude change,
I think.
Very possibly.
It is a bad sign for level time.
If you can't beat the cloud nine,
that's playing last minute with the substitute.
As good as demon one is, right?
You just take that completely out of the conversation.
Lev should be able to put wins like this on the board
when opportunities are offered to them.
and yet they got rounds out here.
It was Zels is called an Amastoclass
on the defense half though,
now he's got to call some good rounds
on the attack side.
We headed to our piston and left for good off those.
If I pull it to cut up towards B,
instead of awkward as well to try and anchor if you are king.
So go on way though.
Look to hold his ground in a spot and position like this.
the cloud liner, not far behind, but the defensive set-up looks good here from the
daytime there. Sorry, spikes on a deep line. Get in front of an A, come on, no, it's
coming in the direction. Let's play the mouse.
A little at least for the paranoid gesture, he's waiting for more signs of life I think
of utility. Yeah, the constant jump peeking there is really good for giving you information,
I'm knowing whether or not they're walking out behind that fiber wall, so I just got to
adapt. Pretty confident at this point that there's going to be a
chest axe. Spread those defenders out a little bit. Which is his current goal.
With 45 seconds on the clock, there's not a huge amount of time to work with.
No, there isn't. I'm going to spend most of this time just kind of
loising around the main avenue. I'll look to see if it's a nice
area of awards events. It's all the sound cues are going to be heard.
30 seconds left. Especially up on towards the ropes. P excess now potentially
pressure.
I heard that a lot of times now to go into his direction.
Let's try and refute that boom.
Because a lot of you tell him he's waiting at his feet the need
rebounding on top of his saddle blind.
Back up in a way here.
He's loud and swiftly out of that.
That's way to the big bang.
He's up down.
He's up down.
He's ready to defend it.
He's up in a way out.
He's a lot of damage to the bullfight.
still as I say that Cloud9, he leave it all into Bixahan's blows, low enough, but 2P1 to
plate into.
Well, in a dominant position here to secure another pistol around win so 5 of the series,
but you've got to convert past that point.
To be open, though, I was worried about that 2 set up to be honest with you and Sato
got prior to it, and then just a planned-in-built site, maybe he wasn't on the page.
If there was a come-to-abacterate, and then fast retake it, everybody else on live.
I understood the assignment and then the strength back in there, so I was happy about it.
There's a similar note of what you were talking about, and there's a sense of setups because
you know, there's now the spike only having the one subject, I'm mixing around three roles, right?
Physicians? Yeah. Is all their playing? Yeah.
Souther spike in and neon eventually. So, it first changed up a lot in terms of what you've actually
drilled with neon, you know, waiting in the side harsh way in the correct.
Yeah, for example, on this point, usually neon would be the same.
on this map, usually, me on would be playing the Euro.
That Sutter would be on the way, though, yeah.
So things are definitely gonna change.
Oh, I'm gonna go on here, Harry.
Post it off me here.
It's Howard in the land.
And I ground blows.
They can hurt, but they really are given cloud night in a lot of space.
Five million.
Every time, though, it's like just some...
The vine mandate has been issued for Olivia's underplate.
The safest possible to make no mistakes when a plan against the Ecos.
So, I just spot the hand, the sorely needed really.
The expected player looks likely. Yeah.
Good control.
Very diligent.
One, where's he pulled that one from? This one is for the bonus.
Wait, he's allowed a corner.
He's so much he could do from a spot like that.
He's been dropped down very, very low.
I think a bit of luck himself to really make a go with things to you.
But that's a damaging, damaging Ecos, isn't it?
It certainly is. They keep a couple of weapons out of the end of it.
But it's not a great thing in the world.
There's the kind that's done the damage to them.
Demon 1.
What a story for Demon 1 as well. I mean, a resurgence back here, back with avengers.
Playing against the team that he was most recently with in Tier 1.
You couldn't get a different, a more different scenario, like it's the last
other teams with left. They went 1 and 4.
Yeah, I mean, and that was coming off the back of that NRG team that flopped previously
as well.
Just kill a rake in the fall for you.
Finally.
If you hold around two after one of this though, I didn't even want to give him a scare as
well.
It's something to do here.
Agrom.
Double two keys in.
Really agro stuff on his face all the time.
It's for the wall and into the dungeon play directly in two Kings Palm.
Those Omen meta games over towards B-Mane.
It's also just looking to take contact here.
Yep.
Orbs up, realizes that he needs to take space on the side of the map if they're gonna have any success.
And blows only has a sheriff.
So his health is might be good for it here.
Let's still die in situation.
I don't have to be playing into, especially against the eco.
Yeah, you don't want to lose the bonus.
No.
So it'll be very happy as well actually.
It's out of go the way though.
I think it will, and yet, spike it above you.
The showcasing really is a busted really.
It really is, I'd be ability to go back there,
but just chose to play his life into it regardless.
And that's cleaned up by Levy, it's kind of
acquiring a couple of upgrades in the process.
But on this round conversion, it does bold very well.
It certainly does, and they won the round essentially,
by going 5v3 up in that rush over to what's being made.
Both Omen's going for the TP player, I think.
Although the Vick might have TP back out,
maybe I'll listen to what was going on there.
Either way, planning your time to defend
Under the attacking moment, I'm gonna be TP and B9 to try to break crossfire as it might be set up
And King there getting a huge reward out of the back of me
Selsus in the terrain, we play with this thing, but you gotta imagine demon ones headhunter more likely to get things done
But my guys aren't Zelsus, because if you get to one here, it would be his 2,000 kill in the barracks
There you go. 10-year play, yeah.
Peter, I have a block, tell us this.
You're done here, as well, from his perspective.
A little shot, right, and down.
I feel like running and gunning with this stinger would be such an iconic way for that
since he gets to 10,000.
Yeah, I don't really like it.
I don't see how I'm rooting for it.
That's what happens.
Especially if there's a bunch of leg shots involved.
Spike.
Passive position. It gives a lot of space up to Cloud 9 playing this spot.
Let's go.
You can actually see that.
Just seem to show what a peek and spike is.
Position.
Actually just expect a back to Cloud 9 knowing this one.
Shelves this as well.
Waiting in the wake to the back to bait on the light.
What's stolen?
They stole it!
Still show stuff is going to be clearing out the power
for making sure nobody plays into that.
I love just essentially.
The out. Steven 1 still onto the higher arm.
I'm gonna be retreating back now with that T.P. Rodney Roof to save these numbers then ready to punish
And just like that, there's a matter of a week or effort in reek. Oh, I don't know I'm back in. It's a nightmare
Round-to-leviathan it really is a bit of a zelcis
That's up possible. Oh, no
Now here no one playing actually takes all the time and it's planted. Yeah, yeah, I thought okay
They do clean it up. What was possibilities for Sato?
or some kind of a heaven like they were making an out to be.
I'm thinking about what's gone wrong in that round and it reminds me of quite a lot of the defensive setups as well.
Over towards or even the post-plat setups actually.
It's too passive in my guess.
I remember calling it out when we were casting left last time.
Yeah.
Life was on that spot against me.
And I think part of it is because they have the excess in as well.
It's naturally like a very safe player I think.
And likes to hold those passive spots.
But some of it might be the the owner effect as well, where it's about minimizing mistakes
When I was watching live in the offseason they were they were much more aggressive much more confident
And I like that version of them
I hope when he all come back
I'd like to see flashes of beer
That's the 2000 kills by Xen
Juncin
Trying to give themselves as a kiss, I think
Shut down, there it is
2,000 kills for Xelsis in BCD Americas.
It's about one.
Quite as pennies is a little bit of side step in.
King is going to be brought down anyway.
Force the spectate now and I was seeing what the cause.
But Saturn's on the island.
Doesn't he look at this.
Force the dominate the position over towards B main.
There's other gatecrash to get the hell out.
Hoping for just the one but they're playing with that.
I mean they know exactly that Saturn is going to be on that line.
And he's just droopy can shoulder be here.
This reads like Cloud9.
have done a lot of order views among online.
I mean, they're completely very aware of where Spice position was.
Where Saturn's going to be playing?
Yeah, where the defensive Saturn's are.
We live. They're very, very aware right now.
I think also you've got to point out that what Spice went for.
As much as we were looking out from Celsius,
this is POV and you know, congratulations.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
That's your thousands kill.
And that won't land it in his lap.
You know, the idea for Spice there,
you do as a way, lay sometimes,
Want to be putting pressure and trying to punish the Viper that you know is gonna be looking for those a looks and so
Dational to the head and going for either a shorty kill or more likely a saturate for your fate to follow up on
Yeah, that's sensible, but the actual execution of it
Not there
And maybe again that is because Sato is going to be the way lay player
So maybe it's just a lack of experience for spying sure
Well, that one again?
Wow, okay.
Call it skill, call my luck, what do you want to say?
Well, my question is, where is the saturate?
Yeah, but it was the set of thorns as well, I mean.
He's pulling out a rifle at the end back.
Come on, I don't know where.
Weed? Yep, definitely weed.
Cloud9, I've been given in as it was looking poor.
For sure, while of the attack, committing to bonus and all,
but now Cloud9 have just...
It's actually dreaded quite even they've got business booming essentially as well with tons of money to work with and play with deep at his half goes. Oh
Demoron
Even with his death. I love the two to first but obviously not for this round
I'm gonna get this one, please, I'll keep the one down.
Watch it, okay, Petties, it's an answer back to us, even didn't into a 4v4.
But a rapid takeover when it comes to vents control.
Out of what's heaven.
Back out in a way again, just making sure to serve it at this corner to the V-A-Tansmines.
4v4 with Sato controlling.
Information over to us will be live, but it's really fast out back. Okay, left double up
blows and spike looking for information on this side
He's untouchable today's effort. It's not just that. I mean, Sado had a gay crash to respond over to his eight
Expired directly at that time everything is going wrong for love
I mean today has just been perfection from C9. Yeah, it's mad to say
But Zepa, how often do you see somebody with an ace and a 1v5 equal clutch in a single map?
Almost never ever.
And then he's pulling out stuff like this on map 2 as well.
Looking electric.
For anyone who might be new to VCT America's this year,
the Zepa, hopefully discussed this life in total average across the end of the year.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He has his lows for sure, but you can normally rely on him putting up a very
solid average performance and this is this year it's been way better obviously we haven't
seen too much of him and the energy uh performance he had didn't necessarily translate
it's too much but it has been really strong and today you're getting his best yeah
still calming as well in those karma moments and letting a single
That's nice stuff, it takes to fight us, that's how it glumes up.
It's also trying to take it similar time, just look at the way, the first bullet is a headshot on both target, because they're peaking it.
You know, drop it in half?
Yeah, that's not how you want to be taking that fight though, either.
Just try.
Yeah, sure.
Do I know what I'm trying to do?
Also, not going for a jiggle, jump peak, one short swing in while one wide swings.
Yeah.
You know, Austin Liver?
No, no, you tell you, Ziver.
And maybe lost information on that side of the map too.
Yeah.
I mean, this is, I want to work on him for that.
There really is, I want to highlight as well.
We were kind of discussing at the beginning,
we were talking about Levise team.
Because I think they are caught in between right now.
They don't want to hard commit in terms of developing their defaults,
improving necessarily that part of the game.
the game file at the macro in terms of where people play, maybe alternating the setups too much
because they got the excess in this going to be temporary. They're just counting down the days
until January 28th, which when I can get neon in, but as a result of that, it doesn't mean that
they kind of have to get by and kick off for now, we've necessarily set up to the not adjusting
too much because... And they are still playing the same comps though. I mean, I agree with you.
Yeah, but that's a more player unfamiliarity with sports. You're actual strategy on how you're playing
should be the same way.
The actual theory that you bring into the game chat
is the same that your players ability to execute it might be worse.
For sure, but what do you do about practice?
Are you practicing on P. Access?
Are you practicing in the Neon?
Well, that's a great question.
I don't know the answer there.
I don't know either, but I imagine they are being pulled
in two different directions.
Should I show you how they want to get wings right now?
For sure.
In fact, that'd be something I'd love to know.
I don't even know whether we're going to get a chance, actually, though.
Yeah.
To talk to them again.
Look at the moment, like Clamander all over this one.
I know the scoreline says it's even, but
See, with the last three rounds in a row,
have proven to have a great understanding of where
Levegan and Plain are on the map.
And look at the lines that Levegan, to start this round,
they are really deep, very far back positions.
Really passive, I mean, Spike is so far back,
and they haven't been very worried about that early presence
and pressure, they're sending in a bit of that YouTube,
from the Mineral, I'm also also locking down what are the lines.
You're also not going to want a jiggle peek there's for info,
because you're so worried about Deem of Warney's been
Lighting fast on the reactions today.
The move force is pulled out. He's made that one at the moment.
The execs missed time one of the smokes in the previous round and that's how he ended up dying.
The staked mic is trying slow to smith down. So he's very much on his own.
Essentially, might have some help from his teammates.
Can't I take it? So he's given slow.
He's given them everything here.
Yeah.
He's in contact with the slay up.
He's in out of his base.
They said they'd rebound, stopping down through the floor, and the Nade will do it.
Most of them are not quiet, penny still alive and active into this fight.
It's out of those feeling that pressure.
It's mounting a multiple oven user.
It's been, like, yes, used at the mention of drift here.
The place of drop down and where is the pass, but here's how they're running full footsteps.
The gun is a world train, ready in the end with penny in drop down.
Oh, it's all the holes.
It's a bit drop down, Santos beans.
Good for the back line, it is good coverage.
Well, make sure that I picked up some of that eight hits.
It's like double an hour show but it's gonna
Yeah, just essentially take the head clean off team of one zelpsis
It's got it all to do now. It's fought like this in a one-be to bring around a rosy's
Look at these players at the key damage kick it in and there's pit this is offered anytime soon
He's spotted it at least that they are off of it, but the cover by a pxs
So they know exactly how zelpsis one to the play it
Yeah, leaving the pit there the second time forces you to have to re-enter it makes it really difficult to win that clutch
I'm recovering in that round from Levy time, but really uncomfortable I would say was right.
Very uncomfortable. I didn't know whether to disengage or what. No, I think he's the alterter to make it out.
He didn't know I'd go into the plant out then.
King got jumped on. I think you've really seen in this game.
How uncomfortable the excess is in some of these spots that he's been asked to play.
You look ready to him. He is having to fill in this situation.
But they don't seem to have plans to disrupt Cloud9 around the map at all.
It is a little too easy for C9 to take all of this space.
And you're asking a lot of players like Spike towards the end, for example.
Okay, here I play him when you're around.
So I just got the upper right to position in a different area of the map now.
So he's looking to play over towards A-Round.
Might require a bit of help from blows with a power or two to dodge some of that utility.
As it goes up and down in his face, the Viper Orb that is.
Yeah, there's the haunt, which lets him know that nobody's playing aggressively.
That's the door.
Seek out, there's up.
Oh my goodness, it's a bit of spam onto the main act, so...
with a spam onto the main act, so I thought it was back in the waiting room.
You can look at this rapid onto the line, Keen O'Mus,
a bit of hurt because he hasn't been watching this one the time.
He can't, as I spoke his there,
he just tried to cut them all down and swaves.
That's not rifle aim, a lot of damage done, so I found that in here.
I don't know, sounds pushed into a bit of a corner.
Really nice tech from King as well, he throws the smoke,
and as it drifts down to the floor, he can see all of the feet,
realizes there's three of them there.
And I don't know, don't cloud nine,
or pushing him on the territory to reach the peak of his life.
The button sounds hard, no response.
It's been left alone.
It was the vibe before, but that's not a...
It's not a recalls and...
Ritchie's rocker-iron makes it really awkward
for King to try and win that fight.
Demon 1?
Try to slip the net.
See, this crown out my PXS, so...
The winner is really three.
Still.
Chances of the shooting, especially with his plan,
position and he's the fight to,
but they have a try and get these players out wide
and open them, but Vic and Seltses are happy for it.
Will into square up, willing to tackle their head on?
Seltses is eating them up in this round.
He hasn't taken a point of damage.
Maybe he got healed, I'm not 100% sure, but I'm pretty sure everyone was wiffing
on the guy.
Yeah.
He was ducking, bobbin and weave in between the bullets, and just ended up in a situation
where he could pick off two really important kills.
The left roster is very skilled, but I have to say that without too much evidence on
and show during rounds like that.
We do out of sorts today.
They do.
Individually, we know these players can pop.
Vick?
What the heck?
Not sure.
This is going under the spine, okay?
There's else, this is just a meta-sure.
Yeah, I don't point the damage taken in both of those juniors.
Plus, Saturn won a really unusual angle.
I don't know, looks.
Specifically frustrated.
And these are chances that Lev probably cannot afford to give up.
What a fool with Lev getting a pistol in the bonus conversion.
It's just, as much as he left,
I've not been went out of it.
No, and when you consider that all they did was win the pistol,
on Perlet, is actually fairly similar right now.
So you know, I'm fully in control.
Definitely looking like the better team.
And I feel like we're being too harsh for the other team that I've had.
It's almost time to be fighting for a cloud-line situation.
Oh, absolutely very last minute for them, but he's bringing it up.
We're expecting Leviathan to be the more dominant team in this fight.
Not sure what was spotted there.
There might have been a flash of zeltsis.
Ducks in the screen.
We're expecting a pro-sess and just walking up.
I mean, the silent game played that's on order here by cloud-9 is...
...rinsing Leviathan.
We've taken these cruel fights as well as that walled-ups here
as it comes to play as onto the cross.
It's...
I'm worried about the gatecrash.
Okay, taken.
Satta reinforcing the B side of the map, which is necessary.
The King's got a lot of space here, would dominate B main.
It's very agriversationally from him.
It's like, like, get a chance here soon enough.
I'm...
Sanna dropped down, perhaps?
There he does, respect.
It's back.
I mean, he's expecting there to be noise.
This is...
Aaaaaaah!
This is...
It's a typical gabs in the default right now for left.
It's a tragic!
tragic it is. Yeah. Yeah.
Last really rough.
I'm not going to try and equalize.
This is desperation.
If throwing anything at the wall and seeing what sticks.
I mean, you go call it out.
I've had time here.
This isn't just then playing last minute.
No. If no one want the situation was for a long time.
Now, they've had time to put for a game like this.
But they are looking lost.
And again, the qualifiers to this kind of critique is that the players are on
unfamiliar roles.
Normally when they play this,
It's going to be spike picking up, I think in this comp, it would be spike picking up the Viper,
and then Sato picks up the waylay and neon picks up the Yorink.
So there are three complete changes, but at the same time, it's like, it's rough that
left don't even seem to have a semblance of what their defense side is supposed to look like.
There's so many gaps here.
It is concerning, you know, you look at this team and how well do they dominate take the
tournament they've played in in the offseason.
It was exciting to watch. A lot of people put them towards the top into the expectations once
neon comes in, mind you. But, they're also looking as a latan team to go towards Santiago.
And event happening in Chile.
I'm glad they're not angry on that side because I think frustrations build in on the offense.
But yeah, looking what Santiago, a potential opportunity, if they could have kept,
you know, a couple of chances stayed in the middle bracket, let's say, with Neon coming back.
That's exactly what they're looking for, but they'll have to play a lot better than this.
Fake presence at the B-Mane. The goal is to try and pull each other the cloud,
and I believe it's disrespecting it. They're running down right now.
She'll laser it, he says it forwards, that's all the best.
Try and position just can't quite land that second one well. Go down alongside King,
there's the B-site. Correct, wide open.
Penny with an altar as well to his name. He can force the ford himself to play a little bit more aggro.
Why so risky business.
So that's it.
He's on it and he's just feasting right now.
Zorbing a party, he co-killed.
Fee excess.
You poor soul.
He's just looking for a local player.
Hoping that somebody likes else is something of one would end up in his lab.
But at this point, it feels sad to watch. I'm not going to lie.
Well, I'll tell you what.
You flip it on his head and you look from the principles,
perspective of the other team.
Positive?
Yeah, well, see, nine.
Everything that we're talking about with Lev,
as in it's concerning that even with the switch-ups,
they don't seem to have an idea about how that team should be playing.
I wonder what the vision is.
Plato's ideal form of the Levitane defense.
They don't seem to have that vision.
With, see, nine, they do.
Yeah.
The coach, any ancestors together,
have got such a career vision of how God I want to play,
that even with Penny picking up the primary jewelers and demore coming in,
their executioner is still crystal clear.
You can tell exactly what they're going for in all of these rounds.
And I think that is mightily impressive.
And a good sign for them that they've got such a distilled idea of themselves.
Yeah.
Core IDology has had it on a play baller and it carries forwards even if they have a few changes.
Yeah, and that's what that is really.
You're hoping for on the other side, but it's great to see it from Cloud9.
And the integration of demon one and the way that they're so fluid in the comms as we heard from Endle
Beast him right now. I've got all suspend here

But for these kills come to work now that potentially spoil and the picture is one of
the trees.
Talk a bit.
Liar a ton.
Good chance for them.
But today one of the challenges from the high ground and it's a position that is
founded for him side step dodging everybody steps back into the seas anyway and he's
got the sages to work with quick tap just trying to force off the line below and
It was spot to be placed in two, but a half on it anyway, it gives him wink on, just needs to land the short-self-sis.
I think he's got him!
Blows! It's just about managed it!
God, that's a crazy one.
Hall!
Selsis did absolutely best in terms of jiggling there.
Throwing in a couple of shoulder peaks, trying to pull blows off it.
Incredible from blows that he had...
The confidence to simply stick half.
Yes.
Because Selsis was shooting out in jiggling in...
Wallbang spammed him and he uploads view that is only way of winning that was to stick to half
So difficult honestly to play the out in that kind of situation because everything is screaming you gotta take the fight
Go to left to very difficult to be winning out and spotlight that my full

It's even the mental tree. It's after one so potentially leave the charge board a bit of a payout to where the player
It's a hard but a pit again complicated things double action
Into the fight for the approach he'd be back in a way
There's a place in front of me to pass will to now you a lot of that space to our perfect placement and play it off the back of it cloud nine
I'm just ready to strike when the moment's all right
Zepra, all of them just collect enough the kills across the board.
75 Cloud9, they're putting on, they're not saying masterclass still, if you're
tanned, they do bring it to five rounds so they board and sound some breathing room,
a hit of buff for there, but it's a lot for them to do it.
The scoreline makes this game look closer than it is though.
See, nine have been very much in control.
They lost three rounds early on in a half, but generally, taking all of this space on
site, pit down, easy for them.
And the defence side was Reseltis, and Demo wanted a particular wealth full of arranging on Pearl.
We got to see that punch back in La Vietam, we got to see them take this advantage all the way to bring us to that map 3.
and
here at the half of Split 75 and left, have bought himself enough round to be early
just around win bonus conversion, leaving into it a bit of breathing room but we got a
seed, these improvements continue when we swap the sides around and in theory, they have
a well-auro composition so they might be able to get some really good spots but they
are going to have to go deep and aggressive I think to be able to get onto an
punished, theme of one's chamber. One of the big differences between the chamber and the
The EuroTP can be miles away, right?
They can take contact and they can disappear.
You've got no chance of punishing them.
You know the chamber has to be somewhat nearby.
If you can push them off the original line,
there is a chance with a double-duelist company.
You can get the punish on them.
We've seen that be the way that we played out in America's previous years
when this was tried by a couple of teams on split.
Time, time, time.
Let me see it begin. That's four sheriffs.
I love you, Tom.
By the way, utility optional.
What is it to shoot you?
They were doing a lot of there some pistol hands before.
When Ray on Pistol's has been it is really really really good that has not been a problem for them
The next but that is a great time in a mutation of the fact of your own all going down all players facing you

We're going to have actually speed it up in a different direction, but again because that play was made in mid
Kind of I'm a given option since in terms of where they can pivot I quickly so

Could be difficult for him, but he's not a lot of you till Vick
Hey, blows
I don't play it. I don't dare to play it down very well
That's what a lot of people these plays as well as that power right next like is
I'm out of heat down to be to the prophetly blind eye
I'm glad I'm dying!
Running over them, the need rebounds, and it has forced the positioning world so
he's so many angles of positions.
You can play for half one to the fuse.
Two bullets left up.
This could be forcing him way out wide when he hears that one's higher pitch in terms of the tap
onto that spike penny activates.
What a retake from Cloud9.
Straight back in.
Massive player disadvantage too.
Shrug it off.
Yeah.
No worries.
The whole map control, given over, both of these teams have been shown so far, giving
me attackers tons of space to play with.
But they dominated with the ghosts on the way back in.
Real clean shots and zeltis is aimed about the way that they're playing today.
Feels like they've got a date with envy in that middle bracket.
Something a little bit more driving Cloud9 this time.
I'm going now.
Again.
I'm not going to cross it.
What do you think?
Your penny is...
Where did it be?
Oh well, I'm going to the spotlight.
I'm still on the tip of two.
Difficult spot.
I'm never a weapon to the hands of King.
Thanks to the seas.
Don't be still maintaining the ground
and I'll suspect you're counting around.
It'll be.
King barely any half the work will have the spike.
Difficulties here.
Oh, I like their tell-sys.
We can mop up up the round there, 9 to 5 now being at school, 9, cloud 9.
The one wind-cons that were really going for Levy, it's out of being stolen away now.
You have to see if they can improve the rifle rounds.
I'm interested also, though, to see what kind of variation in defensive setups we get.
That was one of the things that was most interesting about the world.
I've been hyperactive in terms of the way that they were maneuvering.
I don't think there's many ways that you can change your mind.
I mean, Demon 1's position is the biggest one.
You change your mind on the defense.
You can do some cheeky stuff.
You can put it into some corners up towards the heaven and play into mid vents, for example.
Yeah, yeah.
There's some unique stuff you can do.
The ability to showness the, you know, drop Viper Orb in mid.
Yeah, play.
Which I think is a nice change, huh?
There's a fire on the other foresight.
I went from thinking everything I set up so
I'll just keep

Especially so, but he's called him just retreating Cloud9.
Pull him back in a way, and then pull the retention off mid for just a moment.
And Vic was not there to back anybody up.
King's going walk abouts.
Yeah. He feels like he has to make a play in a 2v3.
To be honest, if you just secured this space, I think they can lift.
of T either around each other.
Cloud9 is so proactive on their defense.
This is crazy decision-making, and King is going
for all that space out.
It was hoping to find a kill potentially.
It was his planting for Cloud9.
Which I'd like to know.
The word of life that they've already made the moves around.
Whoa, you're standing.
Can I manage it?
How does A in at least,
the angle of a crouched up,
Vic just claims to kill anyway.
And now I was left into the Palmer King's hands.
He's got to do it all from the spot like this,
and it won't be free.
That's to be monstrous.
of these already after the worst beginnings. Flash dropped down onto the low ground and that potentially might be heard out by them.
Nine.
Crouching now, making sure they've got that packed mentality taking the fights together and showing that they've got that discipline.
I'm going to move around. I saw him fight onto the one D1.
Essentially they're for it.
Demon 1.
Rapidly, I don't know what.
Make sure that there's safety in numbers and Cloud 9's secure up that 10th round.
Good trade from Demon 1 but also.
Nice boomer and from Vic, to make sure that he was jiggling, freezing King's position,
and then only swinging when Demon One was ready to trade.
Because Demon One was late, and we're back into raptors there.
Be it of a scrappy situation.
Almost loud something to do with it.
But also, really unexpected in terms of that double push out through mid level.
I have no idea what was going on.
I've always one step ahead it feels card 9, even in the chaos.
It's got the play that's going to win them around, yeah, always making a right decision.
And it was three rounds on defense.
I meant an enormous response would seem like that's not what King was aiming to go.
Yeah, but whatever, not punished.
I just don't see it happening the other way around.
For love, it's just...
Up hill climb.
Let me just let you go.
Let's go into the fight here, but this is the weaponry is good for it.
for it. The other system D1 locked it down. It says 10 in the upgrade. He heard the ropes. It was actually up
for it. So, oh, okay, that's good. Sting-tool. Stop from him and King. He's coming up up up up
again. He's playing with the other side of the mark here. This is getting awkward now for cloud nine.
Especially so with our TP deep into enemy territory King. I'm zorbing up a lot of space and zepher.
Zepher. I mean zepher might be thinking that it's going up. It's going up. It's going to be
to be honest with you. It's a miles away. Well, there was an oldman TP in the middle of all of this.
So you are really worried.
Wow, an Earth of Levegon.
So another weird situation, a little bit like the previous route,
where Levegon will be able to get a plant.
But they're getting surrounded on all sides by seeing,
right?
This time though, numbers even are 2v2.
It's not like King is good movement as well.
Wayward with it, so King makes it nice and awkward
to take that occasion.
It's the Wopy 2 and Devil Face.
This is just a plain rearing as said to Levegon.
It's not actually getting things into order.
Yeah, scrappy at times, but a few more rounds like that potential is there.
They've got a couple of really big picks in the midst of all of that, too.
The spam on to Zelsis.
Through and heaven.
There's a big difference, make her.
That opened up the A-Sight for them, because otherwise,
constantly worried about when our vibe would be.
Oh, nice!
Oh, how'd you pour her?
Yes, at the climb back in here.
One of the other things we've done mentioned too much, as well.
It's a cleanest calling in Portuguese.
There, hello, big fight.
You're able to show a stopper before the old us, somebody called me!
But he's, well, waiting around the corner.
It's a native time to push them back, out of the way.
Off and out Cloud Island to put a crunch.
That's a levier time.
Team will want to stick around in this position.
Because he's got that TP to send him back into B-heaven.
Extremely deep with the rendezvous.
Any of these deep-market positions are so tough to clear.
And he's dying to expect the chamber to be there.
It's a really nice extra layer to that push. Although he is playing it, safer than he could do.
Yeah, I think he's just trying to play a bit of a bait and switch so Penny is tucked on the corner.
He has retreated now. Penny is still in his forward approach. This is a low-rozyer moving forwards
but across our placements good and luckily, no players active enough to try and trade him out of
the spike dropped down, they were worried about the A-Ramp push.
They're going to get out of the chair and his own friend.
I thought the scat is up.
I'm just going to fake it eventually, I mean they're going to get a capital 2,
and I'm sure what the quarter is right out of the left.
These rounds are very strange.
They're very strange.
Using Eto using Alts for no committing to anything.
But you only have 25 seconds left.
Normally Cloud9 are pretty good about re-gaining information in the areas that they've lost,
but they've lost the whole of E-Ramp and you haven't been in this.
He's not what I'm saying.
He's not what I'm saying.
Find the pick on the side of it.
Just not what he's playing could be.
I was thinking there's still could be the wind coming if we let him play together, but
I'm flying too.
We're slowing down his lone players and it's a plant, not for main.
How disciplined can the left players be?
Playing off each other, one of them the previous round, yeah.
But they're very strong.
Don't run away.
I think we're fresh in these smokes.
We're newing them now.
He has to be the playmaker, the most.
This place's lucky dropping down behind us, except for it is cleaned up quickly to be too.
Sel sis and demon 1.
I'll take this one down together.
Almost hand in hand, snake bites.
It's good for the Kaene.
It's not really platter for a place where this is like this, but it's always there with our worms.
Contact, or remaining, clean with movement and now no time at all.
That circle shrinks on the spike.
So, there's another one round out here to learn.
Keep it going.
to go and one round at a time, no guns intact for not shorter money situations, so I
would get a glimpse of it soon.
This round, I think Cloud9 really lacked that productivity that we were talking about being
such a strength for them. They went for the early round. Deep push.
But once they'd lost a rapid situation, they had no play, gradually regained.
Any semblance of control, presence, info in that area of the map.
And King is playing this slow, contact-d-style.
a little bit like how client-man we're on their attack side actually, which is really giving them a lot of worry.
And we're getting some funky rounds where both teams to be honest have lost track of where each other are.
Yeah, I think it's just a direct result of introducing the subplanes, right?
Because normally, weld drill defaults spread out on a defense side.
You're not leaving too many gaps, right, in the play, but both teams are opting for this contact play style,
which normally the biggest benefit you've got if you're just kind of winging it a little bit with your defense side of your defaults
Is the uterus going to spell it out for you? If attackers are using utile to take space, that signifies where they're going.
So you see in both teams, slow it down on their attack side trying to be as silent as possible.
Yeah, it's a strange game so far. Very unusual clash between two teams. Either playing at full strength.
And Lev starting to show some glimpses of the team that hoping to be, this is doable.
Yeah, it's very possible. Now this round they're going to be running into.
A demon wanted to have a force.
That was a look like they're looking for.
Yeah, take control of the main early.
I have a peep and peep and peep and he's in there.
He's kingdom with that teleport over and across.
Would make it tough for demon wants to hold an easy line.
He cuts it up.
Panning doesn't make it to clear that one out if they hear it.
So here we go.
Blue box.
So the force broke him.
With the boom boss.
King did D.P.
Yeah, he did.
So you can see demon wanted a camera for the player more aggro line.
a bit more shallow in his body.
What is he doing at pretty cool with spot as well?
There's a lot of guesswork on display.
The more one could very quickly be overwhelmed
in a spot in position like this.
The day crash, Mr. Jotkins, back in the way
to like I said, he's outed to be over his flash.
In his face, but he's just trying to pay him out.
The Jardell would have movement,
especially to try to wrangle control on that rifle in his hands.
A lot of changes are now getting, yeah,
they're navigated as a result of that.
5-3 in Clownown with Bad Weapon Ring and is essentially the round or at least it should be.
It's not getting a little bit closer.
There's dimensional drift as well just one away.
Worth hunting for some of these players if they're just looking to die to spike but obviously you don't want to do it too early.
Give them a fanton and give them a chance back in.
Let's think about it.
Yeah.
That seemed a little early to me but...
if you get to get to the building
you get to the building
get the old and get back so you can't play
yeah got the kill
that's what he was after
another can set up something really simple really easy for their next round
they've just got so many also work with
the double-duelist all in particular is a fantastic combo
your old when the euro sees somebody important you waylay old them
your old then comes out of the ultimate very easy
very easy
Very easy to combo up like you were all from into many different
Yeah, I was afraid that you weren't really a little finding a way back in it, you know off the back of the old
Let's go back in this
Game of order
No, we'll need to cut them out just yet
See nine have slowed down a little bit about it. In terms of the players that were
Absolutely powering them through these rounds. We were looking towards demon one and Zepa

Potential
to be spotting him off to chew to place again.
So that's a pinch of his hand lay it up.
He's about to know it is.
Look at the path, that's how he's trying to jump onto this one.
But let's put him in a retreat into the smoke.
This is piece of...
Okay, so chance, it's gonna white.
Yeah, I think they've messed that up a little.
That's still going ton of space to pit down.
Yeah.
Still, it should be good for left.
Yeah, it's a massively advantage spot.
So that's the big part now.
I'll wait a second.
I'll leave the charge, Sato, when you're moving back to main, just looking to break
something about Utah.
Seekers could be powerful here as well, to try to counter the pit.
Seekers span.
Yeah, I'll be in use.
This is a bit pointing out that position.
You can watch if that looked as fun as the relevant corner.
Sato does still get an active one today.
This set goes.
Set goes, rather than not clear to the side right now, and he's just potentially far
win kind.
Bored it out.
When you face, the king can't only play to all of them, but he's got this.
She ain't done!
Wow, I was just talking about the fact that some of the superplayers are still going to slow down,
and then Zephy gives you a run like that.
I think if you look at that and replay the majority of those are just going to be spam kills.
I'm not 100% but into a pit like that, let's have a look.
Follow the Seekers.
What is one?
There's one, but there's found it to the back.
This is just okay.
I mean, the first is a straight-up duel inside the pit.
a bit all right to pure intuition barely enough time what a great way to wear people
we're gonna be playing inside the pit though I mean some of that is just like raw game
sense it's not just like
keep these four it's demon one find some side of the
100sato, that's gonna remove options here.
President spotted Vic.
Power noise is gonna be pulled out early.
It's best for it really, I mean Spike is gonna be
such as for now, drop off,
but Zephyr's just found it as a slide.
Agnidoo wasn't being covered.
With that clearly retreats, backs up in a way.
This is Slap-out from left.
It's gone wrong early on.
Well, 35 now they need a hero place so it's a,
it's probably gonna keep a more Slap-out exactly.
Chaos is essentially the only way
that left it back in to a round like this.
Well, it was known that there's a couple of people looking to take contact here.
He's worried about whether the next person is.
He knows Celsius is down there on this angle, but who's playing off Celsius contact?
He's very worried about our player stairs.
Talks in, screw it up.
Yeah, Leather've lost information. Sorry.
See, nine have lost information in the middle of the map at the moment.
Very passive, right, pulled fast.
There's a flash to go and regain some info in A heaven.
They see the de-empty. There's King now called 30 seconds left.
I'll take that space.
He excesses going for it.
Looks like the gun might be towards B anyway.
The excess, looking for something going, smokes are going to be standard.
It's dropped up towards B.
He's been dead.
He's been dead.
He's been dead.
He's been dead.
He's been dead.
Now, this is all I'm holding.
He's been dead.
He's been dead.
He's been dead.
He's been really low.
So, there's an E.
How wide is the open?
I think he's got dropped out.
I'm playing.
I'm playing.
It's not time!
Last player's been dead.
It's the round essentially sealed up.
up. Can't make a play for much now. 12 rounds for Cloud 9.
I mean, listen, they put together a couple of rounds stringy together on this half, but
next point, I was saying earlier, they didn't bite themselves too much in terms of
freedom, especially with Cloud 9-1, Round 13 and Round 15.
Yeah, they put themselves in a bit of a rough position.
Strange peek from Sato as well. I'm still, I'm still at a bit of a loss watching
in some of these rounds from the left.
Just trying to power it.
Did you get it from Zeppon?
They said how did they get out of the rounds?
Yeah, but honestly, I understand where he's coming from,
because when I'm watching, I think the scoreline is making this game look closer than it actually is.
And of course, three of them are off the back of pistol and bonus early on,
but man, it's been a tough day at the office,
but I'll be a tap.
It has to be a converted round though for them.
Stringing together whatever sort of buyer can get three rifles,
rifles Guardian, a bucky, a real host to work with, they are one away from a couple of critical
ones, crucial ones, demon one posted, that afraid it.
What will his face want to make this one awkward, angles could get crossed up easily enough
to the midfield worked as well, by leaving the sending fade you till, back and forth
treblas and out of see if they can paint out a bit of a clear, a pitch of a cloud night
and it is broken, sato and surd a quite deep.
Left potentially calling,
because they might want to go into the angle,
but no, back into king, it's difficult.
Trello's draft, how much on display for Cloud9
and flying to me, they themselves also,
they fall for itself, sis.
In surd some self-domain to be seen now,
and that is suddenly an option taken away.
Demon 1's now gonna be,
The war's the best in.
A lot of defense away from this A side and this is it. This is eventually how it ends live.
And with a wind put trickling down players and dropping like flies.
One remaining is all down the blowers where he will fall.
Not even a finished cloud dying. Clear it up.
They sweep left away.
Coming out here with a substitute last minute.
Demon 1 in.
dismissing people one's former tier one team and getting the win on the board for oxy
Wally's out.
Yeah.
A tough situation for both of these teams to be honest with you, but Cloud9 adapts into it
far, far better.
And demon one there showcased that he's been wearing the oxy jersey, repping it underneath
what he was wearing the jacket over the top.
Yeah.
Hard goes out to oxy as well.
He's had, I mean, such a personal tragedy.
But the boys are still here and they're winning and waiting for him to return.
Reppin' for him.
That extra element of the Cloud 9 boys were playing for today.
Not just the win to not get sent down into that lower bracket for two in it for him.
But on the other side of things.
What a tough day for Lev.
I think the copes, hopefully they've only been screaming with the other version of the roster
and they're ready to go now that they're down in the lower bracket.
But Santiago on the horizon and you have two Latam teams.
The crew vs Lev in that lower bracket.
One guaranteed to be the first eliminated.
That is tough stuff.
Dio stuff overall.
The last couple of teams as we were saying,
but today it's a cloud nine.
First of hearing.
Taking a one step forward again as well.
Showcase a resounding turn around, obviously,
in terms of short notice with demon being integrated.
I'm a great editor.
They showed such a clear understanding of how they want to play Valorant.
To the point where it doesn't even matter if they have somebody different in.
And they have to change a couple of roles around as well, remember it wasn't just a straight up one for one exchange.
But, Nelson's and Amy, the whole team, in fact, integrating and adapting perfectly, yeah.
Yeah, they really knew exactly what they wanted to do today.
I think the direction, especially on both was just so clear.
That wonderful stuff over the wall, taking it in at such a clean fraction too, too well,
looking large and in charge.
But now we're going to set it down to show you, she's standing by for that Verizon post
matching view.
He's playing a tough standing, and I grow a job in his arms.
He's hitting my legs and shots.
Even for me, I don't think I have to do anything so thanks to him.
How much did you have to adjust to that?
Because obviously, he's got some rolls opening around there as well.
Did that just come easy to you guys?
Yeah, I think it was pretty easy.
I was playing with our team.
We're pretty flexible and I think paying these by those before.
So I think just slotting, giving them one to like some rolls that he's come to go with.
It's pretty easy for us.
I don't know.
It looked really, really convincing.
Demon 1! Come here!
We chatted before this match. He seemed really happy and really excited to be back here
and you showed us what you got, man. Like you started right into this one.
How was it going against Livia-Tan?
Oh, it was good. We knew we had confidence. We had a new
what they were doing, but we were just focused on our game.
You know, we've been learning and screaming, and you showed it here today.
It was a bit weird in some of the rounds. Like the way both of the teams played was a
a little bit, not all the way to use from them.
How much mid-rounded adaptation
since you guys have to make according to what Levy
Aton was changing up?
Honestly, we didn't change much about it.
We just played our game and we kind of called
how they played, but I was just,
I said, I'm just gonna do my thing,
that we were doing in the screen,
so they'd do their thing,
and I'm just taking my fix for everyone once here.
How much time did you actually
have met with the team to screen?
Three days of fun.
That's it.
Three days of practice.
Well, apparently that's all you take to get the job, right?
Penny, let's have a quick chat with you as well.
You guys are moving on in the middle bracket.
How are you feeling about Cloud Dance performance
at thus far and kick off?
Oh, I'm a man.
I'm like you just said, we're only in Scrimm.
So I'm really confident coming in.
I think it's like the end could have been a lot cleaner as well.
They kind of got some rounds that
screwed up our money for a bit.
But yeah, I mean, we're happy.
And we're confident with tomorrow as well.
Right.
Did you get any eyes on your opponents for tomorrow?
you have a good idea already or what you're going to come up with.
I hope that you can fill that in because I couldn't find it on my cue card
item so we're both, you know, stabbing in the dark.
That's okay.
I'm sure I'll desk and fill us and bring that bracket up.
Penny thank you so much for joining me here for a quick chat.
We're now, of course, heading over to the desk for much point.
I'm here joined by Zepa and Zelsis from Cloud None.
After a dominant win over a lot of things for joining guys, I want to start with you joining
three days.
You had to prep with demon one.
You make a wall swap to put him on the center and you just talk me through the process
of getting him into the roster and making him feel comfortable.
I mean, it's pretty easy.
Like we just kept everything the same, basically.
But I mean, obviously we changed Penny to do us,
but he's played do us before,
demon ones played do us and chamber like a ton.
So we kind of just kept everything the same,
except Max kind of gets demon one,
kind of gets a little bit more freedom to call where he wants to go
and we just kind of like build around that.
It wants to do something.
And even in losing your last games up against energy,
you had a pretty solid performance yourself here.
Again, feel like you're crazy, not that, especially to start off.
How do you rate your kind of individual form right now?
I'm not gonna lie.
I'm feeling real nice.
I feel like prime demon one as people are doing.
You're feeling like brought in demon one hell, yeah, I love that keep it up and all the fun
Okay
Yeah, you've got a little game to play with you guys it's called jinx
How long have you two known each other?
I'm not long time
I mean we like friends are known each other because like we've known each other since like CS
Yeah, friends
Six years I mean I think friends that definitely has to be like
You're for four franchises, so I won't say it like
I'm pretty long time
You think you're on the same wavelength. Yeah, okay game is simple
You guys are count get a countdown from three you're gonna save a word. It has to be the same word
I can't say word
From from demon one I'm gonna count down from three think of a word in your head you're trying to get the same one without communicating anything
Okay, okay.
Is that my sense?
Sorry, I didn't mean to swear.
Okay.
Don't give me a trouble.
Okay.
This one's easy.
Wait, what?
Okay.
Here's the rule.
Say the same word at the same time.
She's going to give us a rule.
Each player said, I don't give you a word.
It's all between you two.
No.
You mind Mel.
You have to say the same word.
Think, look, he's up his eye.
This is going to be easy.
Okay.
We'll probably get in the second try.
The second try.
Okay.
Three, two, one.
Three, two, one.
So two.
That's pretty good.
Give me another one.
Different topic now.
Three, two, one.
John, you didn't say it.
What?
What are you doing?
What's wrong with that?
What's wrong with that?
What's wrong with that?
What's wrong with that?
What are you ready?
Look at me.
Are you ready?
Three, two, one.
You said one.
S tier.
Think about it.
S tier and Cloud.
through Cloud9.
Think about my S tier ranking.
Ranking, S tier.
Three.
Think about my word, I said, both words.
You can't stop doing that.
OK, all right, three, two, one, a really useful.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
That's up in the new T-S-O.
I said, T-R-T, the first.
Yeah.
Yeah, I got it.
I got it.
Come on, bro.
All right, one more.
All right, all right.
All right, all right.
Three, two, one.
So cute.
I can't say anything.
OK.
We'll go with soju. I don't even have same thing. We'll go with what they're one before. Okay, okay, okay, there's a lot of flavors, man
I got it. I got it. All right three two one start like
Okay three said
I don't know how to I have the day. She she rolled those of her win
I should have done it up for the first one. Yeah, you did win one round
That's the only round, and then you get far minus for content.
It's true, it's what the people want on the mom's heart, you guys.
Let's take a look at the bracket and how that's paned out now after the end of two days.
You guys play again tomorrow against envy.
Do you even want to know that you were, was it Penny that didn't know?
Penny didn't know that you guys were playing envy tomorrow.
You did Jordan, expectations for that team.
What do you look at that going into that game?
I mean, I don't, I don't really have expectations,
because like we're obviously we only have three days of practice with even one, but for me
I just want like myself included and the guys to just be like comfortable and like competitive
if we pull the win we pull the win and obviously we're doing this for Oxy so if you nice to give
him that and then but aside from that like there's not really any expectation I think we had a
good first match and then NRG people kind of I know they're pretty useful chance like people
Yeah, come on, but for us we're confident we're happy. We're five and out
So yeah, we're just gonna take it match right now. I think for you
We've got our qualifier or more time with Donald's
You may stand in the office on the side while this is going
You need this a he'll be McDonald's with them well if God not don't win I guess you can get ready for a burger from one of these
That's the luck tomorrow that you guys go and get your prep down down.
Thank you so much for watching today of BCT.
We're back again for the final two days of this weekend from the middle bracket.
We'll see you then.
Bye this evening, Bumble.
I think we need a bracket down we have between crew and N-F-2 ropses that have had to make
do with less than complete roasters.
No, there was a great lead 10 ropses.
So to push into a medially straight-up, walking, I mean that's so easy.
Oh my god!
Imports are a little bit cold now.
Despite the visitor, oh my god!
Through the box there's having Geeta Gala's pretty low as well.
Having strats who's been Geeta couldn't stop him.
Just the tap would get a down and it's time for her!
But on the end of the other night,
there's time for situation.
That's the right call to invite him in as a question.
You're on time!
How was he getting away with this?
A fat-cat!
Can't be true, I haven't back to the back three case.
Let's carons off.
Next it's down low.
Look at the holder on the AMA.
Hopper with the Oden case.
It's the way he's over for him to sweep me to claim the floor.
I said, please push up here.
I don't think that from inspired, it's first in seconds.
That's it, try to cross its awkward.
And here comes the wall, Benji, won't be there to see it come down.
And he put them to the sword through me doors.
The push, or it's about to betray us.
That's why I walked straight.
Oh, fuck, fuck, why does that have a big bond?
The first time I've been in the world, I'm not a lie.
It's got all the crew on the outside.
Another challenge in this fight is that we can continue to actually his Tally.
And if you have no idea, you can have no idea.
Cross the line and kick and kiss it, Belfast MTI.
From Beijing, stand out, play a four-day steam-serve bar.
We'll suffer the freedom on side crews.
It's anything, finally get by them.
Real-time versus Cloudvine.
Thousands of you've spliced and swallowing them.
But a firepower and we go on.
It's still a bill flying in the battles.
For Noah, the clock didn't show up, it's been exactly taken out by the U-Tails.
Zephyr!
He's taken over.
Zephyr is going to be sticking out trust in his teammates to do things like a race for Zephyr!
He can't stop!
The hand of the Slayer didn't want his very source behind the hit.
He's the A-Gwonane True, and he's going to be able to do it with Zephyr!
His back!
His slurvin' straight in their faces, and that is a 13-3 finish.
Thoroughly rap.
The closing remain a flush full tonight.
You will love that space to our proud nine.
But just ready to strike, Zepher, all of them just collect it out for kills across the board.
A lone blow is here moving forwards with the massive placement of the D-sense.
And if you're down on the flash, the avoiders can bow no time at all of that circle,
shrinks on the spikes up.
There's never one around out here to learn, for Saturday we'll still get an active.
This, Zepher, Zepher,
or Zepher is rather than not clear to the side right now, and he's just potentially found out where to come.
King down on his plate for all.
Well, she had it done.
13 A.F.Bound Nine, leading up a sweep left away.
