00:00:00

00:05:09 Welcome in, everybody. We are here today for the second day of the mid-rounds for the Charity Cup Tournament. We have Kevin Grumman and Fear with us today. Just this portion going over the coming up matches, which the first match is Postpod Clarity versus Premature Evacuation. Before we get into bands and start theorizing,

00:05:36 We do need to go over some of the teams that were eliminated yesterday. This being Bright Side of Death, Former Relv Desidents, No Local, Baby Carrot, Odin's Call Me Maybe, Galenti Police Department, Velociraptors, and Arrival. So, with Odin's Call, Test, Brave, and a Goons team out,

00:06:02 So, yesterday we saw a lot less of those rush compositions that we saw so often in feeders, and I think that...

00:06:18 Pattern will be continuing today. We'll see people bringing out their more refined compositions, especially when they've had time to practice against what they got to see in the theaters. And I think we're going to see the best today that we've seen so far.

00:06:35 I would agree with that statement. Now, Fear, do you think we're going to see anything meme-y from these two teams? Yesterday, we saw Baza in Premature Evacuation pull off something that honestly I was not expecting. Do you think we're going to see maybe something potentially similar? I mean, it really kind of depends. These are elimination games for the first four of these.

00:07:02 Win and you're in, lose and you're out. All eight of these teams are one and one. And then we will go into our second round of GSL groups. Realistically, I think teams are just going to bring whatever they think the best comp is for any given scenario. That might be some form of the Gunspam slash Octo slash Shield Octo, whatever you want to call it. It might be something else.

00:07:28 When you get into later days of tournaments, typically you'll start seeing more interesting and more varied comps coming out. You have to think about, okay, does this comp beat Octo and do we want to bring it out early on in the tournament or do we want to bring it out later? When we saw in the AT last year, the comp that ended up winning the tournament for Tusters, which was this armor missile kite setup, we didn't see that until much later in the tournament. So if we see something

00:07:58 Das ist neu oder interessant. Typically, das passiert auf Day 3, aber wir vielleicht sehen es nach den ersten vier Matchen, denn wir werden in der zweiten Runde der Group Stages sein. Und als die GSL Groups sind, dann werden wir in der Bracket nächsten Woche. Ich freue mich, dass die Teams springen. Wir vielleicht nicht sehen, dass wir in den ersten vier Matchen sehen, aber ich denke, die Matches 5-8 sind, dass wir vielleicht ein paar Teams starten zu sehen, dass diese Teams starten zu brechen.

00:08:25 Yeah, I'm definitely curious to see what day two brings. Now, with that, Postpod Clarity has banned the Hyena, the Orthrus, and the Geddon. Premature Evacuation has banned the Arbitrator, the Sentinel, and the Caries. I will ask Kevin. Kevin, what do you think of these bans? Well, I think that we've been seeing a lot of bans on the Who's.

00:08:51 E-War Frigates, especially the T2 E-War Frigate, they're integral to a lot of the more kite-y, fit-themed comps, and seeing the Hyena, Sentinel, and Kiris all band out means that it's going to be tricky to counter a kiting fleet without those dams, without those long webs, and without that tracking disruption.

00:09:14 We will definitely see what they bring. It still does leave some options for Ewar, though. With that, it does look like the teams have landed. Let's go ahead and throw it over to the arena and the commentators and start off this next match.

00:09:39 Hello everyone and welcome to the arena. We have an elimination match here between Postpod Clarity in red and Premature Evacuation in blue. Postpod Clarity showing up with a Drone Newt Control Comp. Greybill, what has Premature Evacuation brought to the table? They have brought an Apocalypse Navy as their mainline DPS alongside a Brutix Navy issue in the Voter, so the usual gun spam as you could call it.

00:10:05 Supported by Magus, Accrual, and of course Mexicrual for reps.

00:10:11 Ja, all of these gunships, the Apocalypse, the Navy Brudix, the Devoter, all three of them need Cap to run. So if the Postpod Clarity Team is able to newt out the Premature Evacuation Team, they should be able to shut off the damage of the Apocalypse, shut off the damage of the Navy Brudix, shut off the damage of the Devoter. But right now what's going on is we're just going for the starting Logitrade with Yainte in the Execur taking...

00:10:37 Big shots from the Permature Evacuation Team. The Permature Evacuation Team rushed in to try to get on top of this Exequer. Meanwhile, the, sorry, Yente from the Permature Evacuation Team taking big shots. The PostPod Clarity Team pulling back a little bit. Both teams sort of all over the map here. Yeah, the thing with drones is they are very hard to kite. And so they are hitting that Exequeror pretty well.

00:11:06 He has some troubles to stay up here. But I'm also looking at the Dominics of Dryden Bloodborne here, and he's sitting suspiciously close to an MJD as he MJDs around. He also has some sentry drones launched that are sitting now at the other MJD beacon. Very interesting place. This is really clever because it means that if the...

00:11:30 Premature Evacuation Team wants to get on top of Dradon and take out the Dominics. They will be opening themselves up to the Sentries. That said, we see the First Blood goes to Postpod Clarity, winning the Logitrade race against Premature Evacuation. And Nymph, the Execer for Postpod Clarity, tackled down, Hick scrammed, webbed. Not long for this world, but Postpod Clarity, they've got to be feeling a little bit good about that start.

00:11:56 We need to follow up on it now and make some progress on the mainline DPS here, I think. But it looks like they are opting for the crew of the Basilisk. Yeah, if they're able to get those webs down, they'll have a lot more mobility around the arena. Basilisk was, this might have been an attempt to also free the logistics. Basilisk was one of the things that was preventing Yente from, yeah, preventing Nymph from moving, but...

00:12:24 Bazel's got his webs on ERA in the Confessor, although the Confessor slips. And now both teams are back to jockeying position, looking for a good target. Neither team has anyone tackled. That Apocalypse has quite good projection. It's bearing that to bear against the Myrmidon Navy issue. This Myrmidon Navy issue is not going to be able to run far enough away and is just slowly taking damage. Meanwhile, as you say, the premature evacuation side, they aren't losing anything in exchange for this.

00:12:54 Ja, die Crew ist jetzt noch auf, aber jetzt in die Hull. Das ist es für ihn jetzt. Aber die Mermidon ist auch auf der gleichen Zeit. Das ist ein sehr guter Trader, würde ich sagen. Die DPS-Advantage, an dem Moment, ist es für die Evacuation. Wenn die Mermidon geht, ist es nicht da.

00:13:15 Indeed, even still, we can see Premature Evacuation, they're using so much more of their attack bar than Postpod Clarity. Remember, the red part of the attack bar is applied damage, and Premature Evacuation has applied damage to Starlord, bringing him down. That damage is, you know, they're switching from target to target to target, so one target goes down, next they're on the Confessor, they're teeing up the Mollus as well.

00:13:40 This has been some pretty good targets, which is meanwhile, post podclarity, they're not applying damage to anything right now. Yeah, the Morlos is one of the only things that can prevent the guns from hitting anything, because damping someone to not being able to lock it is a very effective way of stopping him from shooting, but it didn't help them there, and the drones made short work off that Morlos.

00:14:07 Okay, Molus is down, Confessor struggling, and meanwhile, post podclarity, they are applying damage again. Look at their attack bar, it's pretty much full, it's all going on to Alex Octonober in the Brudix Navy issue. Now, this is a good thing, they need to apply damage if they want to be able to win this, but it's probably a little bit too little, too late. The Dominix has damage to apply, the Stradios has damage to apply, the Confessor has damage to apply, but all three of these ships struggling.

00:14:36 Ja, Dominik seems to be the last ship that will be on the grid here for postpart clarity. Still sitting at an NJD beacon, but it looks like drones are much active here. Actually, well, some infiltrators are going around, but they're not doing much anymore.

00:15:05 Ich denke, PostprodClarity ist ziemlich sicher, dass das nicht mehr passieren wird. Indeed, indeed. Und es war sehr gut zu sehen, eine sehr inventive look von dem. Wir haben nicht gesehen, dass viele Drone Control comps in diesem Tournament gesehen haben. Nun, ich will note, dass Premature Evacuation, die Arbitrator und die Sentinel sind zwei sehr powerful sources von ...

00:15:30 Tracking Disruption. If the Stratios in the PostPod Comp had been replaced by an Arbitrator, this might have been stronger. So it does look like things are going a little bit tough. I'm seeing some joking going on in Local. PostPodClarity says, our Dominix has come back from worse. So they're planning to survive. They're planning to fight these last 3 minutes and 45 seconds.

00:15:58 Ja, vielleicht können wir die Brutix-Navy-Issue durchführen. Wir sehen. Ja, vielleicht können Dominik mit den Bordens wiederholen. Das würde die Brutix wiederholen. Aber im Moment ist es so, wie Drones auf Drones hier.

00:16:21 Wait, Dominik's MJDing in? Well, yeah, Dominik's is just MJDing, so moment to moment to moment. Dominik's does look to be headed out. No, sorry, it's heading back in. I'm looking at my own vector there. Dominik's right on the edge of the arena, posting in local. Will I die if I warp to sun? Great question. Many nanogangers have asked themselves this before.

00:16:52 Ja, aber die Antwort ist ja. Wenn du da lange genug sitzt, das wird dich finden.

00:16:59 Indeed, warp to 0, that's a little dicey. Warp to 100, most people figure that if you're going to warp at range, you're going to go at 100. Custom warp to ranges, secretly overpowered in the Nanogang meta, of course, then you run the risk of warping to 60 on a Stargate and you can't jump and you feed that way. So, you know, a little benefit this way, a little benefit the other way. Yeah, I guess this Dominic won't find out if he's...

00:17:25 Wait, is that a whole tank? I guess we're going to sit here a little bit longer. That's a very tanky Nomenix.

00:17:36 I mean, Galente ships, they do have a lot of hull buffer, and that is one way to keep your Dominiks alive. The highs are definitely full of those drone link augmenters. When they warped in, I called this a drone newt control, but we didn't see that many newting effects. It might just be a full-on drone kite comp. Yeah, making full use of the range of the Wardens, right?

00:18:01 Die longest-hitting sentry drones, so far as I'm aware. So they can probably shoot up to 150 kilometers or so, but you also need the control range to activate them. So 150 kilometers would be a good call.

00:18:18 Ja, es ist sehr, es ist ein Inventive, es ist ein Inventive Comp, und als wir das, uh, das Devoter, oder das Dominik, slowly ticking down in Hull, und, you know, ich denke, ich denke Drayden ist, dass Alex Oknobor mit ihm ist. Ich denke, das ist ein Mutual-Kill. Ich bin einfach, dass beide Hull-Hit-Points tickt, als wir, uh, just watching, you know, Dominik ist Tackle down, nicht moving, kann man nicht mehr, aber...

00:18:46 There's a surprising amount of hole in that ship. Yeah, it's going to be close, actually. Sadly, we don't get set kill board links here on Thunderdome. We don't know for sure how it's fit, but it certainly very much certainly was a hole tank here. Indeed. So we've yapped about this long enough. We will send it back to a short break and then the desk where they will break that down some more.

00:19:15 Guys, stop being casual. We should not lose anybody to this. Warp off. Warp off. Take the fleet warp. Everybody warp off. This is really, really bad execution. I'm very disappointed.

00:19:42 Crush our enemies. Your damps are completely damped out. Crush, I'm damped out, I'm damped out. Get out of my chambers, boys. Heat your hips. I've not been able to lock us in the thing again. I'm jammed.

00:20:20 And we are back! What a match that Dami...

00:20:25 I love a whole tank dummy. With that though, that crew are getting around kind of their bands. Fear. That was a choice. Talk to me about it. Yeah, so what we're seeing and what I kind of mentioned yesterday is that the power of the hyena and the long range webs, also the bonus paints of a hyena, but mostly those long range webs matter a whole lot for application for these kinds of gun spam setups. So

00:20:53 This time the Hyena is banned against it. Well, we've banned all the types of control that we don't want to face. Arbitrator Sentinel carries. So we're just, instead of taking another E-Warp Rhegat, we're going to take a Krur. It doesn't have as long-range webs as a Hyena, right? And it has those Newt's and Nos's, which doesn't really matter as much. But it's that same idea, right? You have long-range webs in this low tackle. You're going to be able to get, or in low...

00:21:18 Low tackle, low point value. You're going to have two of them burn in at somebody, grab the tackle, and you're going to be able to apply. We saw there he started on this Confessor, trying to kind of bait the Logi, the Executor, back in. Basilisk, the captain of this team, doing a very good job of that. So they start on the Confessor, they start burning him down, the Confessor starts catching reps, and immediately the crew of the Basilisk moves in onto the Executor, they pick him up, they get him with a...

00:21:47 ... ... ... ...

00:22:05 kind of adaptation that we're going to see maybe later on, as well as bands get a little bit more refined. But yeah, very good pickup and very good piloting by the Basilisk in that career to really make his team have the snowball effect that they needed that match.

00:22:20 I definitely think we will see the Kruor may be used as a way to get around some bans just from this weekend so far. But next up we have Nanite Toothpaste versus Templis Calcif. Their bans respectively, Nanite Toothpaste being Typhoon Orthroscorpion, Templis banning the Geddon Sentinel and Carys. Kevin, give me a quick kind of what this speaks to you about maybe what we might see.

00:22:49 Well, for me, I really noticed that Scorpion, how that ship has been seen, not all that frequently in his tournament, but has been seen to great effect to being able to control an enemy in composition and be highly versatile in its ability to both jam out things like Logi and DPS to keep alive its own Logi and things like that. And they don't want to give that option to Templis Calcif from Nanite Toothpaste.

00:23:16 It definitely seems like they're taking things into account, maybe. Maybe they've scrimmed and we don't know, but it does look like they have landed in the arena, so we're going to go ahead and send it over to our commentators and get this match started.

00:23:38 Hello, everyone, and welcome back to the Arena. We have a Gunspam Mirror, Nanite Toothpaste versus Templis Calcif. Nanite Toothpaste opting for the Abaddon and the Devoter, Abaddon Navy Prophecy Devoter, whereas Templis Calcif have gone for the Longer Ranged Apocalypse and the Dark Horse Vedmac. Greybill, what do you think of this matchup? Well, very similar, but always some key decisions in the Evo Frigates here.

00:24:10 Ja, das Kitsun sollte auch sein. Ja, es wird aber auch sein, wenn man nichts kann. Und ja, eine interessante Wahl hier ist, die Harbingen-Navy-Issue. Das ist nicht ein Schiff we usually see. Usually, die Leute wählen die Prophecy-Navy-Instead für die Range-Bonus und auch die Stronger-Buffer. Aber ja, sie haben eine Idee, wahrscheinlich.

00:24:39 Yeah, it is interesting to pair the Apocalypse with the Harb Navy, as opposed to the Range Bonus Prof Navy, because otherwise you'd have two Range Bonus ships going together. But again, they have an idea, they know what they're doing, and we'll see how this goes. I'm assuming we're going to see the Kitsune try to be jamming out that Crucifier the whole time. As a reminder for the chat, you'll see the jam icons on...

00:25:04 The UI at the bottom, but Jam Icon doesn't mean it succeeded. It just means it tried. So take a look and see if the other ship is doing what it's supposed to do. And with that, we are underway. Both teams starting off. We'll see which target they choose to go for first. A lot of red bots out on the red team here.

00:25:26 So they're expecting some heavy hits. Indeed, and they've got their damage first onto Wailing Six Names in the Vedmac, who's getting painted and shot. Meanwhile, TD's out on Apocalypse Harb Navy, so apparently the jams on the Crucifier are not doing their job yet.

00:25:46 Das wird interessant sein. Wir werden sehen, dass die Vettmack zurückkommt und sich in die Lage ist. Das wird ein slowes Match, ich glaube, bis jemand einen guten Positionen und fühlt sich an, um eine gute Position zu bekommen, um ein guter Push in zu bekommen. Und dann, ja, es wird auf einen Target zu sehen, aber es wird ein bisschen dauern. Es ist interessant.

00:26:17 Go ahead. The Nanite Toothpaste team has spread out a little bit here. We've got the Abaddon and the Devoter heading in. Meanwhile, the Execker and the Magus are staying back. They're not quite on a beacon, but they're a little bit further back. Meanwhile, the Templis Calcif team are all kind of balling up around their Logi, as you say, circling around looking for something. But damage going on that Harb Navy, it is going to be important to try and trade that out.

00:26:46 Speaking of trading, they're not trading much, but Tempest Corsif is about to lose their Kitsune here. And it's down.

00:26:55 Das ist eine große Verlust. Sie können nicht den Crucifieren oder den Exekor. Sie werden viel mehr Probleme mit dem Kitsuni geschehen mit dem Kitsuni. Und mit dem einfachen Sitzung hier, ich bin ein bisschen wunderschön, ob sie einfach nur die Moment haben. Ja, Nanath Toothpaste ist absoluter ahead hier. Sie können einfach nur auf der besten Distanz und... Meanwhile, Nanath... Sorry, Tempel ist Kursiv.

00:27:22 ist kind of forced to go closer in or but they they're kind of not they're just burning back not applying any meaningful damage at the moment just hitting the devoter in his t2 resists he can tank that

00:27:38 Yeah, one thing I'm noticing on the effects bar here is you can see there's three tracking disruptors spread across the Apocalypse, Harbnaby, and Vedmac. Nanite Toothpaste, they had this read like a book. They knew Templus Calcif was going to be showing up with gunships, and they have shown up prepared to counter gunships. So, some very effective E-War coming in from that Crucifier. The Crucifier is completely safe.

00:28:05 134 km away from the bulk of the Templis Kalosiv team. There's no way they're going to be able to snipe this guy, so they're going to have to go around, and that's not something they're doing right now. They're trying to get some fire on the Devoter of Babs Corps, who's pretty far forward. The Execer is pretty far back. So they might be able to clear this Devoter before the Exec is able to get in range. Even still, it's a little bit of a tough race here.

00:28:33 Ja, der Devoter war ein bisschen zu pushy, um zu sagen, zu sagen. Und ging in da ein bisschen zu tief, ohne das Team zu folgen. Aber jetzt sind sie. Die Radbots sind in die Position. Die Frage ist, ob sie schnell die Radbots sind, um die Radbots zu halten, um den Devoter zu halten. Er ist sehr low, Armour.

00:28:55 I'm watching the Execer. The Execer is still about 70km away. It started at 100km. So this Exec is just heating the prop in, burning in as fast as possible, and it looks like maybe burning in on an afterburner rather than a micro-warp drive, or trying to do some feathering or something like that. Meanwhile, Devoter is still getting hit, but the Devoter has done the job of going in there. The Execer of Curtis is in deep trouble as well, and it looks like Babs is starting to get reps.

00:29:25 Ja, Tempest Corsi hat sich in ein bisschen gebrochen. Und jetzt Kurtis hat keine andere Chance als zu burnen und zu versuchen, dass es so ist. Aber Nene Toothpaste mehr oder weniger cutte aus seinem Weg zu escape. Und ich glaube, Kurtis wird hier nicht mehr leben. Der Range der Propheten ist nur zu weit. Und da geht's.

00:29:52 It's not looking good for Tempest Corsif at all. Indeed, indeed. And that, as we can see, BabsCore and the Devoter fully repped up. The Execer now safely in range to apply repairs. And those tracking disruptors have been absolutely brutal this entire match.

00:30:14 Now it seems like Asher Lohr in Exegg on Toothpaste side is in some trouble as well. He came in pretty far to get reps on the Devoter of Blaps. And he succeeded in that. That Devoter is pretty healthy at the moment. But yeah, Asher Lohr is taking some heat here from the Apocalypse. And also the Magus is going in now for the tackle. Might be a little bit too late.

00:30:42 Die VATMEG dies in der Backline hier.

00:30:45 I think this is probably over for Templis Calcif again. Those Tracking Disruptors have just been completely eliminating the advantage of the ships that they tried to bring. The Apocalypse, it's got less tank than the Abaddon, but it shoots out farther. Well, what happens if it's optimal range disrupted? All of a sudden, it's just worse. Likewise, the Vedmac, very good damage, very good range. Oops, optimal range disrupted. Now the range is no good.

00:31:14 Very good E-War use by Nanite Toothpaste there. Templis Calcif maybe spent a little bit too long trying to decide what to do. But they're in here now, they're trying to see if they can get something. They're back on Babs' core in the Devoter, but Babs, again, safely repped up. They've finally got some drones on the Crucifier of Razalao, but...

00:31:41 Reislau ist sehr gut gewesen. Ja, es war eine schwierige Match-up für Tempest Calls, wenn du in gehst, mit comparingen die Halbing-Navy mit der Prophecy-Navy und die Apocalypse mit der Abaddon. Niner Toothpaste hat die mehr tankier Ships hier. Also, mit der Devoter und der Wetmech, sie hatten die mehr beefier Seite der Comp, so sie waren

00:32:10 they were probably trying to rely on the uh on the gems of their kitsune but if you get that snipe that early then yeah that's not gonna work out

00:32:22 Ja, und das ist eine der Dinge, dass wir immer in diesem Tournament sehen, und ich habe das Flugzeugen gesehen, in diesem Tournament, als auch in der Allianz Tournament, ist es schwer zu holen E-War Frigate, wenn die entire enemy Team entscheiden, dass sie es wollen. Especially in einem Armour Comp, Ihr Armour Reps apply at the end of the cycle, so from the moment your Frigate says, I'm taking damage, to when they die,

00:32:47 kann es weniger als dein Cycle Time. Und der Apokalypse von Devin Penken hat sich entschieden, auf seinen eigenen Terms zu gehen, aus der Arena zu gehen. Und mit dem, wir senden Sie aus der Arena und zurück zu der Desk.

00:33:17 Das war's für heute.

00:34:09 And we are back at the desk with another underdog win. Honestly, I am really, really excited to see it. I love it. Kevin, that VEDMAC being a choice, with it being a devoter versus a VEDMAC, talk to me a little bit about it. Absolutely. The reason that...

00:34:35 Das war so interessant, weil das Katsune war, und all der Red Team geöffnet wurde und geöffnet wurde, die Blue Team geöffnet wurde und geöffnet wurde und geöffnet wurde. Es war so hoch.

00:34:53 I think that Devoter was an excellent choice there, was that with its Hick bonus, it was able to tank the entire enemy fleet for an extended period of time, and that let it get the reps that it needed. It was able to hold all that DPS, where I just don't think a Vedmack would have been able to. Under pressure, the Devoter is better, even if the Vedmack is going to be faster and it will pump out more DPS. We know that we've seen Vedmack versus Devoter in a 1v1, that the Vedmack wins.

00:35:22 But when it's not a 1v1, the Devoter, he's stretched a lot further.

00:35:29 And taking all of that into account as well, it does take the Venmack time to spool up. So that is something that teams need to consider when filling each of their slots. Do they have the time? Are they going to take it? And then Fear. That was really, really well played by Nanite Toothpaste. But you notice that Calcif might have made a mistake.

00:35:59 Can you elaborate on that? Well, I don't necessarily think of... There were a couple things in that match, right? So, at the start of it, the Kitsune just could not jam the Crucifire at all. We saw those Target Disruptors go entirely. So, they weren't able to do what they needed to do against this Crucifire and just shoot it and kill it before it's able to get those Target Disruptors back up. I'm interested to see how the Kitsune must fit. I would...

00:36:24 be surprised if it didn't have a gold jam and if it did that was just incredibly unlucky but it didn't work out for them so they lose their kitsu not the start of the match and now they are stuck in a scenario where they are at a disadvantage in range control versus this other comp and they have ships that on paper some of them project better but some of them literally do no dps if they're not in range so in that ved max so this time around

00:36:53 They kind of waited around and kind of waited for someone to poke and prod in. And then they kind of went on this Devoter. But realistically, they needed to pull the trigger a lot sooner. They have the higher DPS on paper. We saw the Crucifier actually didn't swap all three onto the Vedmac when the Vedmac was actually killing that Devoter earlier on in the match. So they definitely could have maybe capitalized on some less than ideal piloting from that Crucifier. We should talk about the bans for the next match, though, because they are loading up on grid.

00:37:22 Yep, I was just about to say, they look like they are getting ready. The next group is No Victories vs. Deteriorated. No Victories choosing the Charis, Amalus, and Tholos. Obviously not wanting to be damped out in this. Deteriorated choosing the Celestis, Arbitrator, and Sentinel. Kevin, very quickly, just give me a little bit about these bans. Just kind of a TDLR. Absolutely. Right off the top we see almost all of the...

00:37:49 Die E-Worfer-Frigates sind gebeten. Wir wollen keine He-Damps deteriorieren. Wir wollen keine He-Damps-Hung-Tracking-Disruption. Und das Tholos ist ein starkes Bann gegen Rushcoms, besonders. Ja, und hey, ich glaube, wir werden sehen, was wir sehen, wenn wir etwas anderes sehen. Ich weiß nicht. Aber wir werden es zu den Arena und den Kommentaren und den Kommentaren starten.

00:38:23 Hello and welcome back to the Arena. We see no victories here in red, bringing something Wingnut Cross would very much enjoy. It's not quite a Vindicator, but it's a Megathron, accompanied with a Prophecy Navy, Fawos, Pontifex Hyena, and an Exegra. What does a Brook Decay bring? Yeah, this isn't quite the Wingnut special, because of course it's a Rail Megathron. What we have here is a Gunspam Mirror.

00:38:51 The difference is Deteriorated has a Kitsun versus No Victory's Hyena. The No Victory's Pontifex might give them some extra defense against those jams, depending on what the Ponti has loaded Lynx-wise. Otherwise, the comps are quite similar. We will see whether the Megathron, which has not been favored compared to the Abaddon. We've seen Hyperions, we've seen Apocalypses, but this is...

00:39:19 in one of the earlier Megathrons we've seen. So we'll see how that does. I expect both teams will be starting out with the traditional shoot at the Logistics, possibly shoot at the Hyena, shoot at the Kitsun. We'll see what they opt for. Yeah, that would be good targets to call at the start for sure. We're going to see in about two seconds, one second, and the match is about to start the Pontifex. I like that pick very much.

00:39:47 Es hat eine Bonus-to-Information-Command-Bursts, die sehr handelte für die Hyäne. Es gibt auch eine Resistenz zu E-War. Und eine Resistenz mit dem Kitsune ist jetzt der Kitsune. Das ist der Grund, und es ist dead. Das war quick. Ja, das ist die Gefahr von nur einem Jamm-Ship. Wir wissen nicht, ob das Kitsune jammed die Mega und die Prof. Navy, weil sie können sie still shooten. Und sie hat es.

00:40:14 The Hyena, meanwhile, has survived the initial, and the Exec have both survived the initial onslaught, so Deteriorated is switching targets, trying to find the right one. They've settled on the Phobos, which is webbed, painted. Meanwhile, the Deteriorated Execer taking damage from the No Victories team.

00:40:36 Ja, Exegra going down as second target here, a good choice for no victories. And it's dead. I feel like this is going to be a quick match, especially as Slave Matt in his Phobos is still alive.

00:40:53 Ja, Bed to Boss, the Execer for No Victory, able to keep preparing the Phobos. The Phobos is tackled, but of course that doesn't matter if it's still getting reps. But Deteriated has switched to Bed to Boss. They're attempting to make the Logitrade happen. But they've lost their Magus real quick, and this is looking like a rough match for Deteriated. Ja, very hard to watch there. No Victory is just...

00:41:23 Sie haben einige Entscheidungen an der Anfang. Sie wussten die Target Priorität und haben das sehr gut gemacht. Aber vielleicht der Phobos geht es runter. Ja, es sieht aus. Ich denke, der Phobos ist runter. Und ich denke, wir sehen, was sie opten für nächste. Achtorp und der Phobos sind es getroffen. Aber da sind viele Reppbots auf Acht. Ja, diese Reppbots können natürlich machen.

00:41:51 Are they moving now to the Abaddon? Ah, now they're back on the Phobos, which desperately needs it. It's in low armor at the moment and got a big chunk of hull there and it's down.

00:42:06 This is particularly rough. The Prof Navy and the Abaddon are going on to Mick Flightmaster in the opposing Prof C Navy issue. They don't have any tackle on it, but more importantly, the Phobos there was the last source of kin thermal damage. So these are all armor ships. Many of them, especially the top line, are likely fitting a reactive armor hardener. The reactive armor hardener gives you increased resistances to what damage you're taking. So we should expect that...

00:42:35 Mik Flightmaster is going to have a much easier time tanking than Slavemat in the Phobos did, because Mik Flightmaster gets to have a nice reactive that's fully spooled in order to tank the EM damage of the Abaddon and the Prof Navy issue. And for that very reason, we can see some Republicleet Valkyries coming out, shooting at Mik in the Prof Navy issue, but meanwhile Parlea taking big hits.

00:43:04 Deteriorator is just trying to do as much as they can, stay in the match, stay focused, see if they can find some heat, you know, pray for a boundary, something like that. Yeah, Nick seems to have decided to make it a bit harder for his own Logie and fly away from his Executor here. But looks like, yeah, Beth is just following up. He's a bit faster and getting into rep range now.

00:43:33 Ich denke, Mik would have a problem staying alive. Indeed, Mik Flightmaster and Achilles winning the duel, taking out Parlia in the Prophecy Navy. That means it is Q Kappa versus the world. We've seen flag battleships clutch it out in Alliance Tournament. These are not flag battleships. The power of the single battleship clutch is a little bit...

00:44:02 Not quite there. That said, QCAPA is going to do the best he can. He's shooting bed-to-boss, trying to get as many points as possible on the way out. That said, both teams know what's up. We can see good fights going out in local. And this has been a quick match. Yeah, no victories. Not being slack with the Logi drones and then all back on the XFAM Cura and making sure it stays alive until the end of the match.

00:44:32 What's not going to stay alive until the end of the match is this Abaddon. Indeed, Abaddon has a lot of tank, and this Abaddon has a particularly lovely skin that we're seeing front and center on the stream. But that tank is surely not going to be enough to tank the Megathron and the Prophecy Navy issue. The Megathron has jumped away, or is?

00:45:03 Pretty far away there. What do we think about the Megatron instead of the Hyperion we have seen so often?

00:45:11 It's a really interesting difference. So the Megathron has a tracking bonus, which is a pretty big deal. We saw the kitsune just fall immediately. The Megathron's application and the Prophecy Navy issue's optimal range bonus probably really helped with that. Meanwhile, the Hyperion's local rep gives it quite a lot of tank. And it's been definitely one of the favored...

00:45:40 für diese höheren Teams. Aber ich denke, dass Leute vielleicht auf die Mega bleiben können, besonders mit der Performance. Ja, und ich denke, speziell mit der Hyäna, wenn man Targetpaint und auch Wepper targett, diese Large Rapeguns wird es. Und dann, ja, als wir gesehen haben, eine kleine Ewa Frigate kann sehr hart und sehr schnell werden.

00:46:07 Indeed, and those small Eeyore Frigates can really snowball things. But it has come time to say goodbye to Deteriorated, congratulations to no victories, and we'll send this back to the desk after a short break.

00:46:40 Bombers Bar could be anywhere.

00:47:07 The Mute Monster has struck. We are back with no victories. Coming away with a victory. And with that, there were some important things that we kind of noticed. Fear, the Command Destroyers. They've played a part in the tournament. Yeah, I just kind of wanted to talk a little bit about...

00:47:34 und wie die Kommand Destroyer haben sich zu sehen, dass es ein Thema, dass es ein Thema, dass es ein Thema, dass es ein Thema, und ein Thema, dass es ein Thema, dass es in den Allianz-Tournament, wenn man viele Battlecruisers in einem Comp hat, man hat genug links mit den Utilitä-High-Schläten.

00:47:54 ...und, you know, even on bonus, you don't really need to take a Command SE. But this time around, right, a Single Command Destroyer can bring three bonus links on top of it. And that can be really impactful, especially at the start of the match with things like E-War effects and armor effects and stuff like that. Which, this time around, we saw actually a Pontifex on the team with the Hyena versus a Magus on the team with the Kitsune, which is a bit...

00:48:23 Interesting, if you take it in a vacuum, right? Typically you'd think that the team with the bonus skirmish links, the Pontifex, would want to be, or the...

00:48:33 ...which we saw here was very impactful against a kit soon.

00:49:02 So it really doesn't matter what the bonuses are because you're eventually going to have the right nooks of links for your given squad as you take a link offline and then put another one online early on. So really impactful, especially when a lot of times people are taking battlecruisers with only one utility high slot. It enables them to be a little bit more fast and loose and adjust a little bit more early on in the match before the match even starts.

00:49:30 Of course, and that's definitely an important factor that needs to be taken into account. Now, this is a charity cup. Everything that goes towards Weston Hospice Care is going to be doubled up to 200... Sorry, up to 2,500 pounds? Dollars?

00:49:56 Moneys! By Jintan's work, they provide end-of-life care facilities and support for families affected. This is something that Jintan had been affected by. This is something that I personally wish my own aunt had had access to when she was in hospice. So this is a charity close to quite a few of our hearts.

00:50:24 So this is why we are putting on this tournament. So just please keep that in mind that it is doubled. With that, we're going to go into the bans for the next grouping, which is Gampima versus Yeet Fleet Elite. Gampina going the Sentinel, Tholos, and Onyx for the bans. Oh, hi. Yeet Fleet Elite banning the Armageddon, the Scorpion, and the Hyena. Hello, Orange.

00:50:53 Kevin, talk to me about these bans. Absolutely. We're seeing that Gampima is banning out Sentinel, Tholos, and Onyx. We see very frequently Tholos and Onyx being used in rush compositions to great effect, especially. And that Sentinel as well is a strong ban out for trying to...

00:51:16 Make sure that your own gun comps can be fine. So it looks like they're trying to avoid a rush comp, and they might be bringing something with guns. What do you think about Yeetfleet's side, Fear? Yeetfleet Elite. I mean, Armageddon, Scorpion, Hyena. We saw how powerful the Hyena is. We saw how some teams can take a crewer to maybe get that same long-range webs and application. But the Armageddon, again...

00:51:45 A ship that we've seen be used to some effect, especially in drone control setups, where the long-range webs and the drone bonus from the Armageddon play out quite nicely. And the Scorpion kind of blocks any sort of double jam setup from happening. Realistically, the Blackbird hasn't been particularly good this tournament, but the couple times we've seen a Scorpion plus a Kitsune in Feeders.

00:52:06 hat es gut funktioniert als Armour Control. Es scheint mir zu mir, dass sie einfach nur Generik Control Bands sind und eine Generik-We-Don't-Want-To-See-Herr-Long-Range-Webband in der Hyena.

00:52:18 Absolutely. And with that Armageddon ban and Sentinel ban, we probably won't be seeing much in the way of Newt control because of those long webs from the Sentinel and Armageddon being banned out. But a lot of the strength of those compositions can be removed from this. Ships like Dominix still remain, but Dominix is more leaning towards those heavy drone compositions, which have their own can of worms to go with it.

00:52:49 I believe the teams are loading into the arena now. Yep, and with that it does look like they are starting to warp in. Let's go ahead and throw it over to commentary and let them kind of get a few points in before the match starts.

00:53:09 Hello everyone and welcome back to the Arena. Here we have another Gunspam Mirror. Rather than the Megathron that we saw last time, Gambima have brought the Hyperion. Greybill, what does Yeetfleet Elite have going on? Yeetfleet Elite brought Abaddon, Prophecy Navy, the all-time classic in this tournament, Devota we have seen before, Magus for support and Lynx, and Keres.

00:53:36 der Klassik DEMPS, und natürlich in der Augur. Das Augur hat besser Rep output als der Exekur, aber ist ein bisschen slower und hat ein bisschen weniger Flexibilität in den Mids. In particular, eine der Dinge, dass du in den Mid slot bist, ist ein Sensor Booster, zu sehen, ob Gampima hat die Read-On-Yeat-Fleet und hat das so dass der Exekur wird

00:54:06 Even if it gets damped, that'll be something interesting to keep an eye on. Another interesting thing to keep an eye on here is the damp war. Both of these carries, as soon as they are allowed, are going to be attempting to damp each other. The one that wins gives their team an advantage. So some randomness, some ping. We'll see what happens there. Yeah, Campina might have a slight advantage on the...

00:54:32 auf die Dice Rolls der Randomness, weil sie die Pontifex haben. Und wie gesagt, es hat eine sehr gute Bonus für Information-Command-Links, andere als die Magus, die eine Bonus für Skirmish-Command-Links bekommt.

00:54:48 Yeah, that could give the carries of side Kurova a benefit over loud use on Yeet Fleet Elite. It could also just give the Gampima team more ability to lock regardless of the damps. Meanwhile, that Abaddon, very good damage output, very good projection. It's been one of the core ships, this kind of gun spam. So as things go underway, let's see which...

00:55:18 Die Team gewinnen die Dampour und die TARGET ist erst. Looks like Yitfleet hat damped Gampima. Und sofort die Armour-Wrap-Bots gehen und auf die Evo Frigate hier, um die extra Wrap-Cycles zu halten und sicher, dass es die erste Onslaut des Dammages gibt.

00:55:42 Indeed, because if you are not, if you are not, if the Carries of Loud Use is damping the Carries of Said, he can't damp any of the DPS, and trading E-War Frigates is a very good first way to start out these matches. But Loud Use looks to be surviving, probably pre-locked by Lodgy, as well as all those rep bots, so damage is going on to the Prof Navy issue instead.

00:56:08 Ja, das ist einfach nur ein Podshot, um die Schild zu machen. Und es wird es nicht wahr sein, um die Logie zu sehen, was du schießt.

00:56:22 Strategy sometimes is applied, but yeah, it's more or less a Mexican standoff here. Both teams, while it's holding their position, not much movement going on. It's more like a target calling and what is damped, what has not much transversal at the moment. Yeah, both teams holding back a little bit. Look for a moment like the...

00:56:47 Die Yitfleet-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Devoter-Dev

00:57:11 Yeah, if some hits land in between the wrap cycles of the Logi, then that can make it look pretty scary, because the buffer of these small fragments isn't that big. You just can't fit a lot of... They will have a plate fitted usually, but yeah, a small plate just doesn't give this much raw hit points.

00:57:37 Yeah, this is also one of those times where you can try and catch the execra or pilot sleeping a little bit. You know, oh, they're going to take their reps off, they're not going to waste cap, they're not going to continually rep a frigate that's fine, and then all of a sudden you switch off. But it looks like Yeetfleet is coming in a little bit. We can see the Abaddon slowly moving in, and the carry's moving in as well.

00:58:04 Possibly looking to maintain damp superiority. Gampima is turning, but they don't necessarily have too far to run. Yeah, the Yid Fleet Elite is using their Armageddon as a frontline, which is obviously a target. Gampima isn't very keen on shooting, it's just too tanky. They are still trying on the carriers of Laodice. But I'm kind of...

00:58:31 Ich habe die Devoter hier von Heatfleet Elite in der Backline. Ich denke, dass er eventuell wird, dass er eine Bewegung wird und versuchen, etwas zu untertacken, das dann wird es zu verlassen. Aber als ich sage, es scheint, dass der Wettbewerb ist. Nein, der Wettbewerb ist unten. Von meinem Angle, es sieht aus, dass er es um zu burnen ist.

00:58:55 Yeah, it does look like the Vedmac and the Ponte are trying to go on a, and possibly even the Hyperion, are all just making a circle around the Abaddon of Kurogame. So the Vedmac in particular is heading for the backline. And if that Vedmac is able to get to the auger without getting intercepted, we can see the Devoter turning around, trying to head the Vedmac off. But if the Vedmac can get on the auger, the Vedmac is totally capable of soloing this auger. So...

00:59:23 Es ist eine Möglichkeit, die Devoter ist, doch. Ja, die Devoter ist ein guter Job hier, aber die Vettmach ist ein bisschen schneller als das Devoter hier. Das ist ein bisschen ein Problem, wenn man einen sehr tanken Schiff hat, und oft hat es auf der Platte und hat es ziemlich viel speed da. Aber ja, die Augur ist nicht... Ich bin nicht sicher, ob er nicht sieht die Vettmach da. Er ist nicht wirklich so weit weg von es.

00:59:51 I think the Augur is maybe trusting in the Devoter a little bit. The Magus going back, unclear if that's going to be a last-second interception or if that was just a link. But Richard Howe and the Vedmak in the back line, ready to wreak havoc. The thing is, though, Richard is quite some distance from Jace Rowland. So if Yeetfleet Elite turns around, they might be able to get the Vedmak for nothing. Yeah, I think that Abaddon was a great distraction here because Richard is...

01:00:20 Pretty much out of place here. I don't like where he went there. He was more or less tunnel visioned on that augur, it seems. And now he's being punished for it.

01:00:35 Ja, es ist tough. Es ist besonders tough, wenn du das kind of runaround und du denkst, oh, ich habe die Devoter, so ich bin. Der Magus hat einen Schramm, wir sind gut. Und dann, die Moment, die Augur Pilot keys up, zu sagen, tackled by Vedmack, oder Vedmack in 20k, oder whatever der Callout ist, der whole Team just turns around, collapses on. Oh, Cheetah hat MJD'd his Epeereon in der Backline. Oh, mein Gott.

01:01:02 Der Exekuror ist jetzt in einem sehr baden Platz. Er war quasi in, um ihn zu bekommen. Aber er ist jetzt nicht in einem sehr guter Platz. Er hat viele Drones auf ihn. Die Hyperion könnte sein, doch. Ja, Geathfleet-League hat nicht die Möglichkeit, um den Exekuror zu gehen. Er ist wieder in Range.

01:01:29 But Gampima's kind of split here. Yeah, damps are all over the place here. We can see some damps on Gampima, some damps on Yeetfleet Elite. So both carries just trying to react to what's going on on the battlefield. The Yeetfleet Megas is tackled. The Gampima Pontifex is tackled. Might be a mutual tackle situation. Geeta and the Hyperion actually has quite good range to the Yeetfleet Elite backline. So that Pontifex...

01:01:58 Unfortunately, on Gita's team, falling quite quickly. But Gita may be making some work on this augur. Of course, the Devoter of Warhawk has come up to screen.

01:02:11 Ja, no mehr links hier für Gampina, und nicht von den Magus. Und in etwa ein Minute, das wird off und machen Gampina ein bisschen slower, ein bisschen mehr... ...easier zu hit, depending auf die links den Magus hat. Aber es geht nicht darum, dass der Execurier von Chase hier ist, dass er nicht mehr länger will.

01:02:39 Indeed, and we can see the Augur of Patipu completely surviving, comfortable, not even concerned with Jeda right up close to him. And this is prompting me to do a little look at it. Is this a blaster Hyperion situation? Oh no, and Carrie's deleted.

01:03:01 Das wäre sehr überraschend, wenn es ein Blaster Hyperion war. Aber es war wirklich gut bei E3 Delete hier. Ich fühle mich, dass Augur das Wettbewerb in den Wettbewerb war. Das ist, warum es nicht turning war. Und dann hat es dann einfach zu collapse. Und das hat die Snowball ausgesucht und dann hat es angefangen. Und dann hat es angefangen.

01:03:28 Down the hill and into the face of Gampima. Indeed. Gampima, one of the participants, as we mentioned yesterday, in the low-key meme war that's been going on in the Captain's Cup or the Charity Cup Discord, it has been a fantastic time. Wonderful videos from Gampima featuring the copypasta that they've been sharing with us all in Twitch chat. So some of the best meme content for them. I'm a little bit sorry to see them go.

01:03:58 But we've seen some pretty good memes from the Yeet Fleet as well. Some good posting there. And I look forward to seeing how they do in the rest of the tournament. So far it is just Geeta remaining on the Gampima side, in the Hyperion, tackled down. Not actually tackled down, but in the Hyperion, hanging out. And finally, the Yeet Fleet Elite is coming for them.

01:04:28 I just saw in Twitch chat that Campina was throwing intentionally, because they had a Samo reservation for the rest of the tournament. So they're going to watch from there, it seems. Meanwhile, we saw Keres going down. Tita, still out for some blood here.

01:04:48 Yeah, we are getting one. Oh, and there's Jeda's microjump drive has just activated. Jeda is punching out of the arena on his own terms. See you later, and we will see you later and go back to the desk.

01:05:08 Have you or a loved one been scammed and local? Has someone promised to double your ISK? Have you been hit by a hypernet scheme? If you answered yes to any of these questions, it's time to set safety to red and fire back. Hi, I'm Lemmy W. ISK of ISK, Shogatsu & Carbon Attorneys, JIDA44's premier litigation law firm.

01:05:36 The time for being a victim? It's over. We will ensure that you get the restitution you deserve. And those who wronged you are punished. Don't choose some pencil pushing paralegal F1 monkey. Choose a legal FC who will jump through gates for you. Choose quality. Choose ISK.

01:06:13 And we are back with Yeet!

01:06:20 They yeeted. They absolutely yeeted. Kevin, talk to me about this damp war that was going on. Absolutely. In that match, we saw both teams bringing Akiris in. Akiris' mate in E-War, the thing that they specialize in is damps. And in this kind of tournament, they're going to be primarily used to reduce the lock range of enemy ships.

01:06:44 Und so, wenn man die Kommentaren über die Damp War spricht, dann heißt das, dass jeder Karies lockt den anderen auf und kann die Dampen auf den Dampen auf den Dampen auf den Dampen auf den Dampen ist, dass die Dampen auf den Dampen auf den Dampen ist. Zum Beispiel, wenn du die Dampen auf den Dampen auf den Dampen auf den Dampen auf den Dampen auf den Dampen auf den Dampen auf den Dampen auf den Dampen auf den Dampen auf den Dampen auf den Dampen auf den Dampen auf den Dampen auf den Dampen auf den Dampen.

01:07:09 And that gives you massive opportunities to switch dams onto DPS suddenly and stuff like that to give you the advantage, especially in that early period where you're jockeying for position that we saw at the beginning of the match. That makes that you can switch onto their DPS to give yourself a window to burn in, and it gives you lots of options. Options are what you're looking for when you're jockeying for position like that.

01:07:35 Oh, for sure. With that, I am going to kind of throw us into the bans for the next match. We have Honkai Delta Force versus Premature Evacuation. This will be the second time today that we have seen Premature Evacuation play. Honkai Delta Force banning the Megathron, the Prophecy Navy issue, and the Geddon. Premature Evacuation banning the Sentinel, Crucifier, and Typhoon.

01:08:03 Fear, talk to me about these bans. What do they sound like? What do they throw at you? We don't have a whole lot of time because the teams are now in system and about to warp on grid, but...

01:08:16 Just generally, Prophecy Navy, Megatron, okay, just generally I don't want to see these bans in your gun spam setup. Armageddon, we've discussed before, can be powerful neat boat, especially in drone control setups. Meanwhile, Sentinel Crucifier say we're going to bring gun spam, most likely. Typhoon Bam says we don't want to be kitted by missile kite of either shield or armor variety.

01:08:40 All right, and with that, the teams are now landing, and let's go ahead and throw it to the arena with the commentators. All right, welcome back to the arena of premature evacuation against the Holka Builder Force.

01:09:02 Sorry, I'm still locking ships here. It seems like we have shield versus armor this time. Can you help me out here, Ali? I'm just sorting stuff. Yeah, definitely. I am uncomfortably familiar with this premature evacuation comp. This is the comp that they use to knock Odin's Colony maybe out of the tournament, featuring a Kirin for the reps, because it is really, really hard to shoot a Kirin.

01:09:31 As well as otherwise a sort of gun rush type setup. Meanwhile Honkai Delta Force, they've got a drone setup similar to the one that we saw from post pod in some ways. So we'll see if premature evacuation can deal with this here.

01:09:51 Drones are out as soon as the buzzer starts. And the Honkai Delta Force Team is backing up. They do not want to be under the guns of the Premature Evacuation Team. Yeah, as we could expect, the Premature Evacuation Team is burning in to apply their close-range weaponry here. And Virion Stone Short again in his follows, as we have seen him very actively before.

01:10:20 But in the meantime, on this burn-in, the Keres just gets evaporated. The Kirin just can't keep that thing alive. Too much drone damage applied to it. It's a little bit unfortunate for Premature Evacuation. Their comp is close range. They're relying on that Keres to force Honkai Delta Force into close range if necessary. That said, they're able to get Tackle on the Execuror.

01:10:46 Das ist ein guter Pick, aber der Exekker scheint zu haben, Honkai-Deltaforz zu machen, um das Drone-Comp wie ein Drone-Kite zu machen, und Primäring Gene Hurt in der Fleet Cyclone. Ja, Meanwhile, Liu in Hystomnex ist einfach da, ganz far in der Distance, und ja. Pressing F, sehr hart. Cool.

01:11:15 Ja, get rid of the turret.

01:11:19 Indeed, indeed. Now we're on to the second stage of the groups. We're done with elimination matches for now. Both teams free to win or lose as they see fit. Right now this kite seems to be winning, but premature evacuation, they're not out of it yet. They've got tackle onto Casimir in the Navy Myrmidon, so they should be able to get a ship in trade for the ones that they've lost. And they still have that Tholos.

01:11:47 Ja, das Dollars, das kann nicht wirklich die Dämpfe des Dämpfe. Es hat sich die Liebe von den Wettbewerben. Aber es sieht, dass es noch ein Dämpfe des Dämpfe going ist. Die Keris ist auch noch ein paar Hits. Und es sieht, dass Ankai Deltaforz hat, wie sie, ihre Mimito-Navie-Issue da in der Back-Line und ist es, dass sie die Dämpfe des Dämpfe.

01:12:15 If premature evacuation can get tackled on something else now. Or on a timer here, because they have no logic anymore.

01:12:24 Indeed, it's really smart to just abandon a ship if you don't need to. I see some people in chat asking, you know, what shot the Kirin drones? Some of these drones can track surprisingly well. It just takes one good shot. And Honkai Delta Force, they brought the target painters they need to get these drones to apply. And they're doing a very good job of switching them around and getting them on the enemy targets.

01:12:53 It looks like the next target for the drones here is the Cyclone Fleet Issue, at least for a moment. At the same time, Dominix is trying for another NJD, but I don't think he will be able to align before Virion Stoneshot in the follows will get a scram on him. I would assume he has one.

01:13:16 We don't see an effect going off. Maybe it's a full tech force. Maybe it doesn't have a scram.

01:13:24 So this Dominix could still MJD, possibly. Yep, I can see the Breacherpot effect on the Dominix. So the Dominix is going to be continuing to lose hit points, even though it will not, even should it escape. That said, the Dominix is staying up close and applying newts to the Cyclone Fleet issue of Jean Hurt, making sure that the Cyclone Fleet issue can't run away, can't get anywhere close. I think this is a good option.

01:13:53 The Dominix still has Logi. The Dominix has a ton of hit points. The Dominix has some room to play with. It doesn't actually matter if the Dominix is going to get tackled because the Executor can probably hold the Dominix through the remains of the Premature Evacuation team. It seems like Premature Evacuation was relying way too much on the Onyx here being alive because that Dominix just wasn't tackled and just casually burns away now.

01:14:20 Die Drones haben jetzt die Arbeit von den Follos gearbeitet.

01:14:28 This is one of the things about Rush in this format, is you have much less redundancy in the ships. In a Shield Rush you need the same slots for tackle for tank, and you can't just run six, eight ships with tackle modules on them. So yeah, they're relying on the Onix. They were relying on probably the Fleet Cyclone as well.

01:14:56 Dominik ist hier, und es ist nur Basilisk. Es könnte wohl sein, dass sie den Fallers mit einem vollen Tank befinden können, und sie haben den Scram geschlossen. Sie würden sie ein bisschen beteiligen, und versuchen, die Leute zu schießen, die Fallers, statt von etwas anderes. Und vielleicht hat Mermidon gesagt, hey,

01:15:26 This Tholos doesn't have a tackle module. Ignore it, it's full tank fit. Shoot something else like they did with the Cyclone Fleet issue there earlier. Because as we have seen, they picked that first before they shot the Tholos. Bait tagging Tholos makes a certain amount of sense in this format. It is a ship that's been seeing a lot of bans. It's been popular and we've seen it be powerful when it's fielded.

01:15:54 You gotta assume that other teams are gonna try to snap it. Oh, it's a Destroyer. It doesn't have that many hit points. It is geared for brawling. It does have more tank than you think. Or it certainly can if it's fit properly. And so it wouldn't surprise me, as you say, if they're relying on a scram on the Onix. It's possible, we don't know, but it's possible that the carries also had a scram. Yet another reason for Honkai Delta Force to clear it very early.

01:16:25 Indeed. Also, one of the things the Tholos doesn't have is range. So Honkai Delta Force here kiting away, it was a very good choice, and they did it very well. And the basilisk in his maelstrom now has initiated self-destruct. I think Honkai Delta Force is going to destruct him first, and they have.

01:16:55 So, I'll admire this beautiful explosion and we'll send it to a short ad break and then back to the desk.

01:17:56 Rainbow Farfleet!

01:18:03 And with that Honkai pulls off the win. And as somebody who put their channel points on Bazza because he scolded me yesterday. Bazza, how dare you? You let me down. It's alright, friends. Alright, so with that Honkai's drone kite. Fear. We haven't seen very much of that. Talk to me about it.

01:18:29 Yeah, this is a type of comp that Chinese teams seem to actually really like, maybe in their internal streams or something like that. But we saw last year in the AT fraternity bringing these DroneKite setups as well. And this team is a combination of Genshin Impact Alliance from last year's AT as well as a couple frat members. So, you know, they're very practiced on it. And as we see here, they did something with DroneKite that I think a lot of the teams that tried to bring it today have not, which is use...

01:18:57 Non-Sentry drones. We saw a mixture of light drones and heavy drones and medium drones all being used to some effect. And so at the start of the match, they're like, okay, light drones, we're going to put them on the carries, paint it. They had utility paints on some of their mid slots, I believe on the Dominics. So they paint the carries, it dies. All right, cool. We know we can kill this small frigate. So they immediately swap it on the Kirin.

01:19:20 And the Kirin just absolutely melts to the drones and under the paints. Meanwhile, they're continuing to kite out. They were able to actually screen themselves a little bit. One of their ships, I think their exec, got a long-range grapple on it for a second and was able to coast out. So just really high execution of piloting from the positioning, right? And high execution on target calling, killing this carries and then killing this Kirin. All of a sudden, the Onyx goes into the Murm Navy and the Murm Navy is like, all right, cool, we can make this trade because the Onyx...

01:19:49 Has this scram on it, right? But the Merm Navy has a full rack of newts in the high slot. Didn't have any guns on that at all. So goes in, brawls, has its own tackle mods, keeps the Onyx in place. So as the Merm Navy goes down with its self-rep bonus, which it was repping, it was able to trade for the Onyx effectively. And at that point, there was nothing left to tackle anything for this shield brawl, shield rush setup. And they were just able to pick apart Baz's team.

01:20:18 Very effectively. So really well played by Honkai Delta Force. You'll love to see it from two teams that have combined to make a bit of a Chinese super team this tournament. Yeah, it was a very effective comp and it seemed to work for them. Next up we have Rage Sub Cancel Quit versus Nanite Toothpaste. So...

01:20:42 As a cat knocks over the microphone, the bans that we have in place for this, Rage, Sub, Cancel, Quit, are banning the Arbitrator, Sentinel, and Crucifier, Nanak Toothpaste, the Typhoon, Orthrus, and Scorpion. So interesting bans here. Kevin, talk to me about these. Absolutely. From Rage, Sub, Cancel, Quit, banning out Arbitrator, Sentinel, and Crucifier means that they have banned out...

01:21:08 all of the bonus tds in in this format there is nothing that can in tracking or guidance disrupt up to rage sub cancel quit anymore they're all gone but which i think is interesting it seems to say we're going to bring guns and you are not going to stop us and on the other side we see typhoon ortho scorpion and again that scorpion band and they don't want to be dealing with it those double jam compositions that we've seen

01:21:37 in a little bit of so far. And that Typhoon has been shown as an excellent hint. Kyde, he proves Missileship. And so we'll be seeing what they bring for sure here in a moment.

01:21:52 For sure. And as we are getting ready, just before the teams land, Fear and Kevin, who are you guys predicting to win this? I gotta go with RageSubCancelQuip. They've just got so much tournament pedigree, and maybe they show something new, maybe they don't. I know they're one of the few high ELO teams that have brought a shield rush, so excited to see what they do in the second round of groups.

01:22:19 Absolutely. And my money's on Nanai Toothpaste, but that's mostly because they had less money on them in the prediction, and I always like rooting for an underdog.

01:22:31 I am with you on that. I usually root for the underdog, but I'm going rage sub cancel quit. But you know what? I think I might just let the cat pick where I put the points. But with that, it looks like the teams have landed in the arena. Let's go ahead and send it to commentators to let them get this match started.

01:23:00 As Fear has predicted, Rage Sub Cancel Quit has brought the Shield Rush. We have here Torp Raven at zero. Nanite Toothpaste, meanwhile, have started substantially further back. Greybill, what are they doing there?

01:23:17 Das ist ein sehr interessantes Setup hier. Es sieht aus wie die Bands ein bisschen wie ein Mindgame, denn es sieht ziemlich wie Missiles zu mir, auf der Rage Start Cancel Quid. Oh, ja. Ich weiß, dass mein Geheimnis ist, aber...

01:23:36 It looks like a Torp Raven to me. Yep, that is a Torp Raven. It is going to be speeding in, attempting to grab something from the Nanite Toothpaste team. The Nanite Toothpaste team, they're looking at this, they're saying, alright, if we can just kill the tackle, kite to win, we should be good here. The carry's not the ship that you want in this particular matchup, though, because...

01:24:03 Yes, indeed. Nanite Toothpaste is wishing for a hyena right now to prolong the warp, the rush that will descend on them sooner or later here.

01:24:31 Und Abaddon und ProfisNavie sind alle nicht bekannt für sehr gut an kiting. Das wird ein sehr interessantes Match und ein sehr quickes Match, ich denke. Ja, ich denke Nanite Toothpaste hier, ich denke, die MINDGAMES war. Ich denke, sie waren die Bands und sie waren für eine Gunspam-Mirror. In Scrims, wir finden, dass die Carries waren...

01:24:58 In a mirror, if the opposing team had a carries and you didn't, you were in a world of hurt. So Nanak Toothpaste probably brought, might have had similar experiences, brought the carries based on that. But without the Hyena, as you say, with a rush coming in, that's a big, big challenge. So the...

01:25:20 In fact, we see MJDs coming off from the Rage Sub, Cancel Quit. All teams, all their ships have activated the center beacon and they are jumping behind the Nanite Toothpaste team, who has obligingly backed up right into the center of this rush. Yeah, they can say, Logi, we don't need that. We are just going in there. And yeah, Melinda in the backland. Yeah, he's coming in now and just a little bit at an angle, right? So against them.

01:25:48 Guns don't track him too hard. Meanwhile, yeah, Damacy Skadash taking some damage here in his Drake Navy. But so is Eshelur in his Exegura. He's not in a good spot now.

01:26:02 Asher Lure got the entire Rush on top of him, and critically speaking, more power in the Abaddon also tackled. In this type of situation, Rush versus something that's going to try to kite the Rush, you need to have your next target lined up. So with Asher Lure falling, it looks like Rage Sub Cancel Quit is probably going to go into the Abaddon next, and that's two very big ships for the Nanite Toothpaste side.

01:26:26 Ja, warping hier at 0, put Rage Subquit in der Position, to actually get this NJD playoff there, with all their team, with all their ships here. To get them all at once into a good spot, and collapse on the Nanai Toothpaste team here.

01:26:48 Ja, und wir haben mehr Power in den Abaddon. Melinda in den Osprey ist da, also keine Reps für die Seite. Aber Rage Sub, Cancel, Quit. Look at der Attack Bar. Sie haben viel mehr Applied Damage output. Und ein großer Teil des Potenziales der Nanite Toothpaste Team ist den Abaddon, die in den Hull, als wir sprechen.

01:27:11 Ja, also we see in Split Damage, the Tholos is so feared of, or so feared for, and yeah, the Magos already in half armor, Devota also in half armor. Yeah, if you have, if you get close, or if you get too many ships too close to a Tholos, it just will spread its love and make you miserable. Indeed, and it looks like Debug was able to spread that dot around before the Nanite Toothpaste team was able to get away.

01:27:40 This is a fast one. This is a bloodbath. Extremely well coordinated from the rage sub cancel quit team. We've seen this matchup in the feeders rush versus gun spam. And it looked really unfavored, but it's closer than it seems. Because it all comes down to which team has got the better decision making and the better just snap calls. Indeed, yeah. The target calling is...

01:28:09 Das ist eine der wichtigsten Teil der Rache-Comp-Val. Und es scheint, dass Dermestis-Kadash hier noch nicht ohne Schild und ohne Armour ist, wenn man nur eine Hit-Point hat. Das ist genug für eine solche Match. Und wir haben die letzte Devoter-Bab's-Core für Nanite Toothpaste fallen in diesem Spiel.

01:28:33 Very fast, we've given the desk plenty of time to chat about this match and the next one after this short break. Stop being casual. They're really bad. We should not lose anybody to this. Warp off. Warp off. Take the fleet warp. Everybody warp off. This is a really, really bad execution. I'm very disappointed.

01:29:11 Crush our enemies. Your damms are completely dammed out. Crush, I'm dammed out, I'm dammed out. Get on that chamber, boys. Heat your hips. Yeah. Everything dammed. I've not been able to lock this into the whole game. I'm jammed.

01:29:43 Alright, and with that we are back. What a wonderful match. Oh my goodness. I will say that was a surprisingly fun match. But Fear, talk about that use, those use of the MJD beacons. Yeah, so something that players on TQ that maybe don't pay attention to tournaments a whole lot are seeing in the match is they have

01:30:08 9 microjump drive beacons. These are craftable on Tranquility, but a lot of people don't really use them for a whole lot. But they are activatable within a certain radius. I forget if it's 2500 meters or 5000 meters, but if you're within that radius, if you activate it, it will act exactly as if your ship has a microjump drive on it and will shoot you out 100 kilometers away from where you are at the point.

01:30:35 der jump, in die Richtung you're facing at the point of the jump, where it spools up. So you can still be bumped out of it. You can still go further than the 100 kilometers from the activation, because you're still traveling in a direction at a speed there. So what we saw at the start of the match was these teams were at 180-degree warps, and in this particular instance, the Rage Sub Cancel Quip team

01:31:03 was warped at zero. So they said, okay, we're just going to activate the MJD Beacon, who you guys warped in at max range, and you guys start hiding back from us. I don't think they really noticed that the MJD Beacon was going, but they go for the MJD Beacon play.

01:31:17 Lange right on top of the Lodge, who was burning directly backwards instead of towards the side, and really was just able to wreak havoc. Meanwhile, they actually kept their squishies, staying back. The Tholos stayed back, didn't actually hit the MGD Beacon, and it was able to run in there and actually grab onto the Abaddon and start doing as it does with the Breacher Charges. So really well played by them. Really nice to see teams use the MGD Beacons. Typically, the better teams make better use of those MGD Beacons. And we saw a team that does well in tournaments.

01:31:46 But Kevin, so taking into account the MJD Beacon, was that maybe something that allowed the Tholos to live longer than we've seen in this tournament? It usually tends to be a really quick target. Was this something that maybe they used to their advantage?

01:32:10 I think absolutely. Given how that MJD play worked perfectly, landing them so very close, there was just way higher priority targets that needed to be taken down. Like that Drake Navy, like the Rake, even those ships were chewing into them, and so they need to commit on one thing while they still have the DPS. But by the time the Tholos is burned in and has started getting pods up, they're already committed. They can't switch it yet.

01:32:37 Sie haben nichts bekommen mit all den DPS. So die Tholos wird zu reign supreme, werden Pods auf so viele Schiffe. Wenn die Tholos wird zu leben für eine lange Zeit und wird ein paar Pods geben, dann kann es absoluten Wrecken. Es macht so viel damage für ein Destroyer. Und das ist warum wir es so oft so sehen, dass es so stark in dieser Format ist.

01:33:02 Yep, and honestly, the Tholos in this format and out of this format is definitely a power to be reckoned with. Next up, though, we do have Whelp Drive Active and No Victories. Whelp Drive Active banning the Typhoon, Sentinel, and Celestis. No Victories banning the Carries, Mollus, and a Tholos ban. Fear...

01:33:31 kind of go over this with me a little bit. Definitely very heavy on the damps. Damps bans. Yeah, banning out everything except the Celestis, which we haven't seen be used effectively at all, so that makes a whole lot of sense. Tholos, we have seen some teams take rush without it, but it does seem to be the ban to ban if you don't want to be rushed. And then Sentinel Arbitrator Crucifier was banned by Rates of Cancel Quip last time. Excuse me, I'm looking at the wrong ones. Typhoon, Sentinel, Celestis, they ban out the other damp ship.

01:34:00 Not high on the Celestis ban, but fair play to them. If they know the other team is going to ban out Carrie's Mollus, you might as well ban out the Celestis as well. Take out the Sentinel, Cruise Fire is still available, and Typhoon, again, that cruise missile ship that has been very effective throughout the feeders.

01:34:18 Absolutely. That is very true. Sorry. Go for it. Go for it, Kevin. Absolutely. I think it's interesting that we've been seeing a lot of Scorpion Bear hands recently in these matches, but there's no Scorpion Bear hand this runner-up.

01:34:34 Und es scheint, das ist nicht etwas, dass sie in dieser matchup sind. Also, ich freue mich, dass wir auch nicht sehen, eine Ravenbath, und dass Rush noch auf den Tisch ist. Es gibt nicht die Tholos, wie wir schon erwähnt. Tholos ist extrem stark in a Rush comp, aber das bedeutet, dass Rush noch auf den Tisch ist. Und es bedeutet, dass Drones noch auf den Tisch ist.

01:34:59 So, I'm curious. I don't know if we'll see. I don't know. Honestly, these bans are just saying, hey, we don't want to be damped. And we don't want you to have those breacher pods that absolutely wreck us. So, I guess we'll see. Yep, another good, I don't want to say glaringly obvious, but strange exclusion is that

01:35:29 Abaddon is not banned. And the reason you don't ban Abaddon is because you want to bring an Abaddon. Abaddon, we've been seeing, is a staple in this format with how much tank it has, how much DPS it has, that it can be a fantastic addition to a composition. All the teams are readied in local, so I think it's time to do predictions.

01:35:57 Ja, das ist etwas, was sie definitiv brauchen. Aber mit dem, es sieht aus wie... No Victories at 62% Welp Drive Active at 38% bei Chat. Fear, ich will das zu dir. Du denkst, das ist accurate? Und die sind du deine Punkte auf? Das ist ein bisschen schwer. No Victories ist eigentlich für... ...durch ein sehr guter Run von themselves.

01:36:25 They made top 16 2 ATs ago, so top 16 in this tournament is a very good run. Boundary Experts, also known as Wolf Drive Active, they've consistently been better placing, so I'm going to have to go with them, but I think this one could actually be pretty close. My victories could surprise. Absolutely, and on my end, I got some very good friends in Wolf Drive Active, so my points are all going on them.

01:36:54 Fantastic. I guess with that, we are kind of a split desk. My points are going on victories. No victories. Honestly, it looks like it might even out. It looks like we're within a 15 point percentage now. They are just landing in the arena currently. We're going to give them a second to settle in and then send this over to...

01:37:24 Wirds? Commentary! So Commentary can go ahead and get this match started. Hello and welcome back to the arena. We have Web Drive Active in red here. And on the blue side, no victories. You will see armor comps again facing off against each other. Can you tell me what Web Drive Active has brought?

01:37:59 We might have Muterator striking again. Oh, yep. Yeah, you are so right. Thank you so much. I've made it through so much of this tournament without doing that. But Armor Projection Comp with an Abaddon at the headline with the Crucifier for their E-War support. Meanwhile, no victories. They're running back their Megathron Gun Spam Comp that brought them so much success in their previous match today. Now...

01:38:25 That Megathron, it is going to want to track and destroy that Crucifier, but it might be challenged by the fact that the Crucifier will be tracking disruptioning it. So we'll see which team is able to pull ahead here. We should expect some back and forth from the two teams as we see which one has the upper hand.

01:38:49 Ja, was an interesting pick here. I want to highlight is that both teams chosen the Magos this time. When you bring a Keener, that makes a lot of sense, because you want the Skirmish Links. And, yeah, not sure on the Crucifier pick here. But the match is on the way, and as we could expect, the Crucifier is one of the main targets here. Indeed, it's Crucifier for no victories versus Execer for Welp Drive Active.

01:39:18 Bed to Boss in the Execer, pulling back, surviving, got some Logidrones trying to help keep him up. He's doing quite comfortably. Meanwhile, the whole rest of the No Victories team has gone in, which is sadly necessary when you have three Tracking Disruptors spread across your entire top line. Yeah, both four-boss basically going by each other and going into their opposing teams, but also the Hyena taking quite some damage here.

01:39:47 Oh, that's a big risk for no victories. That Hyena is very important. They want to be able to get their Megathron, their Prof. Navy, and their Phobos applying to the Crucifier, so the Hyena is important to keep it alive, but the Scram has dropped. The Hyena might have coasted free, comfortably receiving reps, but of course now the damage has switched onto Slave Mat.

01:40:11 Ja, und jetzt können wir sehen, wie smart Betten der Bars war in der Exekera. Er ist in der Direktion, als er jetzt kommt, um sich in den Wettbewerben in den Wettbewerben, für den Fobos. Given, dass der Fobos auf seine Hicke ist, das ist auch etwas, was er muss, ohne Wettbewerben für ihn. Ja, das ist die Herausforderung in diesem Format, mit den Hicke so populär. Du musst die Scrams für den Screening, du musst sie für den Hicke, aber...

01:40:40 They have to drop their points, unable to do anything. And it looks like Slave Mat is receiving reps, has dropped the point, but is also receiving tons of damage from the Whelp Drive active team. They've got tons of... All their gunships are in a very good range on Slave Mat, able to apply very well. Meanwhile, working class in the Crucifier, doing God's work against no victories. Those tracking disruptors are really preventing...

01:41:04 der Megathron und der Prof. Navy.

01:41:20 Indeed. And two ships down to none on the other side. No victories. They're trying to get on top of Vega in the Augur. Vega is not tackled, able to comfortably move. And again, all of those tracking disruptors really preventing the Megatron and the Prof Navy from applying. We can see they're still on. One of those ships has now got two TDs on it.

01:41:48 Ja, die Prophecy jetzt ist jetzt in die Lowarmung. Also, die Hyäne taking ein bisschen damage, aber auch die Wrapped-Drones, während die Husten der Wrapped-Drones sind noch auf. Man sieht die Hyäne also in die Wrapped-Drones, wenn die Prophecy geht, wenn die Wrapped-Drones kommt von ihm.

01:42:12 Ja, das Prophecy ist der Focusing Fire. Sie werden die Prophecy down. Und ehrlich gesagt, hier, wir sehen gut Fights going out in Local. Hier, once you've got those critically important targets down, die Phobos ist ein Target of Opportunity. Es war in, was separated from the Execur, so there was an Opportunity. Und die Scram means that there's going to be a little bit of Latency between when you put that Damage on and when the Reps arrive.

01:42:40 Shoot the Phobos, bring the Execker in, shoot the Execker, and go from there. Also, Hill is in his Megathron being controlled as he is, scrammed there in pretty much the middle of the arena. He still has some range he could, if he isn't tracking disrupted by this Crucifier.

01:43:02 Sadly, I think all three Tracking Disruptors are now on Achilles. It would be an unusual Tracking Disruptor hyena, indeed. But there goes down the Megatron. No luck this time for this vessel.

01:43:18 The hyena appears to be heading for a microjump beacon. This is going to be a hyena going out on their own terms, heading for the microjump beacon. The frigate's quite fast. The hyena is getting up to speed, might be like a 1MN or something. It's not quite getting as fast as a heated microwarp drive, and it dies before it's able to hit the button. So no more MJD records here. Thank you all, and we'll go back to a break and then the desk.

01:43:48 We actually lost a bet as CCP collectively, so that's why that alliance logo is in the game. Of course, you could change your alliance by leaving, but that would be kind of a jerk move. Oh, you don't like it? Just leave. This logo sucks. I'm going to go join.

01:44:21 Untertitelung. BR 2018

01:44:54 Alright, and with that, we are back. What a batch. Oh my goodness. Seems like a lot of people...

01:45:07 Wett gegen Welp, und es scheint ein paar Leute verloren ihre Channel Points in das letzte Spiel. So, das Mega versus Abaddon, Kevin, plus The Crucifire, kind of give me ein bisschen rundown feedback. Absolut, ich habe es gesagt, wenn wir die Banns waren, aber Abaddon war nicht Bann, das heißt, dass du wahrscheinlich einen Abaddon hast.

01:45:35 And so the way we saw it there, the Megathron being fit with rails will have a bit more range projection capabilities than the Abaddon does. But the Abaddon with pulse lasers can do a little bit better on tracking and has higher peak DPS capabilities. But when we see that Crucifier come in as well, suddenly that extra range that the Megathron has isn't able to apply because it gets range disrupted. And suddenly that...

01:46:03 Das Abaddon ist so viel tankier, und hat sie mehr DPS zu bekommen, macht die Abaddon so viel scarier. Und wir sehen, wie das Abaddon-DPS ist, dass Abaddon-DPS ist, so viel von der enemy Composition in so schnell.

01:46:25 I mean, it definitely seemed effective. I will give them that, and I wonder what we'll see next coming up from these guys later in the tournament. I do just want to give another little shout-out to our charity, Weston Hospice Care.

01:46:44 Wow, we are at this point at 769 pounds and 99 cents or pounds? I don't know the UK cents. Okay, wonderful. Pence. Pence. Oh, okay, this tells you how much I know about the UK money system. As an American.

01:47:11 But yes, no, thank you, thank you, thank you, everybody. Just please keep in mind that it will be doubled on this, up to $2,500 shillings. I like this shilling, Zealous. Good call, CCP Thunder Daddy. But with that, please...

01:47:38 Es will continue till next weekend, so just a little shoutout for that. But we go now into our last match before the break, which is Lazy Piglets, which is Tuskers versus Yeet Fleet Elite. Yeet Fleet... I love when my sheets don't show me stuff fast enough. Anyway...

01:48:05 Ja, so, they're bands, looking like, for the Lazy Piglets, the Raven, the Typhoon, and the Tholos, Yeetfleet being Hyena, Pontifex, and Magus. Kevin, sorry, Fear, what do these match say to you? Or what do these bands say to you, rather, if I can English? Well, this is, I think, the first match of the tournament we're going to see some teams.

01:48:30 Do some crazy stuff, because both these teams have made deep runs, or in the case of Tuskers, won last year's AT. So this is kind of the beginning of pulling out all the stops I would expect. Lazy Piglets, they ban out the Raven Typhoon in Tholos. They just don't want to get rushed, and Yeet Fleet Elite has members of...

01:48:50 Ragequit Cancel Sub on there, if I remember correctly, whose main team, RageSub Cancel Quit, brought the Torp Raven twice on stream in the last two days. So they don't want to see that. They don't want to see the Torp Raven rush. They don't want to see the Thalos. And Typhoon, just the cruise missile setup. Meanwhile, Fleet Elite, I mean, we're seeing no armor command essays. You cannot bring any sort of bonus links for armor on your team comp at all with those two bands. And the Hyena, obviously, very powerful.

01:49:20 Ich liebe diese Bands.

01:49:38 Absolutely. And something else that I noticed from the Yeet Fleet Elite banning out Pontifex and Magus speaks to that they don't want to face off against an armor composition here. Those two ships are the only ships available other than Battlecruisers that can bring armor links, especially if you're going for a composition that wants a more long-term fight, like we see a lot in the armor octo compositions with lots of gun spam and that initial period of jockeying for position.

01:50:08 where it shapes up for long fights without those links those fights are so much harder to fight up into those links are very integral to those sorts of engagements

01:50:21 I guess we will see Geeta calling for the Armor Stork, saying that it is legit. You know, I'm going to be really surprised if they still bring armor, but I guess we'll see. You know, it...

01:50:45 I'm expecting fun stuff with this. I am really expecting maybe we might get a little meme-age between these teams. Allie, the armor stork, having been seen in the ATs before, you know, with that, I can definitely... It doesn't knock out armor completely.

01:51:08 But, you know, I don't know what funky stuff we're gonna see, or meme-age, come from all this. Now, prediction-wise, Kevin, Yeetfleet leaps at 17%. Everybody's really heavily, heavily focused on Lazy Piglets to win this. What's your call on this? As I've said in the past, right, I always like rooting for an underdog.

01:51:35 So, my points are on Yeetfleet Elite, but it's a hopeful point, right? I think they'll make very interesting decisions with those Magus and Pontifex bands, hence it'll make for an interesting fight, no matter what happens, hence with that kind of setup. Like we mentioned here a second ago, the armor storks can exist, technically, and so it'll make for an interesting fight, and I love Yeetfleet Elite for that, at least.

01:52:05 So, the only reason that Yeetfleet Elite is at 17%, with more people, with total voters on it, is that somebody put... There is... What is that? At least three times the amount of channel points on Lazy Piglets? There is a 500,000 channel point difference between these bets.

01:52:34 Honestly, personally, I put my points on Lazy Piglets for the easy win. Do I really hope that Yeetfleet continues to do the yeetage? Absolutely. I love the name. It's very funny and I absolutely love it. So, it does look like they are starting to land now. Quickly, Fear, who are you picking to win on this one with your points?

01:53:05 I can't go against Mirasheev. I do know an Armor Stork is a Tusker Special, and Jida was at one point on Tuskers, so maybe, maybe, maybe we'll see something interesting, or maybe we'll just see another Mirasheev matchup, but with Commandesses that have Armor, even though they're shield, we'll see. I gotta go with Lazy Piglets, though. I mean, I can't vote against Mirasheev, unless...

01:53:32 Und mit den Desk's predictions, es sieht aus wie sie endlich landen in ihren Spots sind. Wir werden jetzt einen Kommentar für was sehen, wie ein Interesse ist.

01:53:58 Hello, everyone, and welcome back to the Arena. We have here, indeed, Shield Command Destroyers pretending to be Armor Command Destroyers, the Armor Stork as foretold by Twitch Chat, and the Armor Bifrost, a new addition to the team. Yeet Fleet Elite have warped in at zero, intending to yeet a Hyperion, a Blaster Hyperion, directly on to the Lazy Piglets. Greybill, what has the Lazy Piglets brought to defend?

01:54:27 They warped in a very heavy control combat range, controlling with no Navy, a regular T1 Armageddon, which has no guns fitted, so it will support a lot of nudes in those high slots, also some very strong tracking disruption from an arbitrator, and also a momentum Navy issue with also no guns showing, so that will also nude quite a bit.

01:54:56 Yeah, those newts are going to make it very difficult for Blood Conned to keep the lights on if Blood Conned is going to go in. Meanwhile, the comp for Lazy Piglets doesn't have an obvious ship to screen the Hyperion, so they've got to be relying on these newts. Typically, when you see a Blaster Hype on field, you're like, okay, that's fine. We're just going to dispatch one ship to sit on the Blaster Hype, orbit it so that it can't get shot, and then we're good. Here,

01:55:24 There's not necessarily an obvious ship for that. Stu Miner's links are probably important. Bifors goes in for the initial tackle. They want to make sure that there is something scrammed. And while the last core of Heat Fleet Elite is rushing in. And I think if they can settle on the momentum Navy issue in Armageddon, they are in a good spot there. Because they want to end this match rather quickly and not get into cap issues down the line.

01:55:54 Yeah, it looks like the Armageddon of Mirachieve is the choice for Yeet Fleet Elite. They are all getting up on top. We've talked about reactive armor hardeners again. We do see Hyperion, Navy Brutix, and Phobos all sharing a damage type. So they've got to be relying on damage drones to avoid a big reactive problem with this Armageddon. But the Bifrost immediately goes down. Not very much armor tank on one of those bad boys.

01:56:23 Oh, very interesting play by the Storki, it seems. Stu Miner is going to, or is trying to, is he tackling the Execurer? It seems like, no, he's... Yeah, yeah, there's a scram on the Execurer. Yeah, there's a scram going off. So, but the Execurer is still going pretty quick. He's probably dual prop fit with an afterburner. So, yeah, he's not getting slowed down too much there, and he will be getting into range of his team and be able to still apply some reps, yeah.

01:56:54 One thing notable about this Yeetfleet Elite, if we look at the attack bars here, Yeetfleet Elite has a much larger potential attack bar, but Lazy Piglets, despite being the team that's the more controlling team, has a much higher applied attack bar. That is probably going to come down to the effect of these Newts on the Armageddon, the Murm Navy, and the Tracking Disruptors on the Arbitrator. It looks like all the Tracking Disruption is all on that Hyperion.

01:57:22 preventing Hyperion from being able to bring damage to bear, even at basically zero and hardly moving against Mirachiev's Armageddon. Speaking of damage, the Lazy Pickleds don't have that much damage in their comp. They're mostly drones from the Geddon, the Mermito Naviation, and the Arbitrator, which aren't that many, but it's still enough to get rid of most of the armor of that Pew Pew here.

01:57:51 und auch seine Hull. Und jetzt ist es wirklich... Die clock ist ticker für Yeetfleet Elite jetzt. Indeed. Und die Neutes haben schon sehr weit über den Team. Wir sahen die Executoren getötet, jetzt die Phobos getötetet. Everyone, no one on Yeetfleet Elite ist eine gute Zeit. Der Applied Attack bar ist... ...getting smaller und smaller by the minute.

01:58:18 The Phobos, with no Logi, that Phobos is going to fall, and Mirachieve in the Armageddon, likely to survive the onslaught. Yeah, I fear as soon as one of the DPF ships here from Yidfleet Elite will go down, then Scorch Celeste in his Execurer will be able to put enough reps out to keep Mirachieve alive. But at the moment, it doesn't look like something is going down, at least not before Mirachieve is reaching hull.

01:58:49 It will see exactly how much hull buffer you can get on an Armageddon. It's maybe not as much as you can get on a Phobos, but Warhawk in the Phobos falls first. Mirachieve, as you say, probably falling. Just getting little reps, and now he's down. But Yeetfleet Elite trading their entire low end for one battleship is not exactly where they wanted to be. And we talked about Rush and getting on top of another target there.

01:59:17 Not on top of another target here, the Merm Navy of Jason Ozeron getting falloff grappled by the Hyperion, but still able to move away. Yeah, they absolutely need to get on top of that to kill it as quickly as possible. I don't think this Prudix Navy issue is exactly hull tanked like the Dominics we saw before. Still, it's a Glanta ship, so it has some hull buffer here.

01:59:43 And as soon as the drones from the Myrmidon Navy issue are stopping doing damage, I think it's looking quite okay for Heat Free Delete, if that can happen here. Because the arbitrator is not doing a lot of damage there. The stork, neither. The carers, well, it has two drones, I think. That's not too much. But, well, they can certainly survive because the exec is still up.

02:00:12 Ja, Blood Conant's Hyperion is going to have a beastly local tank. That Hyperion does have a local tank bonus, which is probably why Lazy Piglets have left it for last. As you say, though, the damage applied to this Navy Brutix is not very large, and that whole bar is holding up surprisingly well. Navy Brutix is still tracking disrupted. The tracking disruption isn't going to be great, but...

02:00:39 Both the Navy Brutix and the Hyperion are basically at zero on top of Jason Oseran's Myrmidon Navy issue. They're giving it all they've got, but as you say, that Execker, about 40 kilometers away, comfortably repping, the only thing that the Execker has to worry about is, am I going to run out of capsticks? Yeah, possibly. The question is, is he going to run out of capsticks before the Brutix Navy is running out of hull? Because it looks like it is indeed a hull tank again.

02:01:09 Ich freue mich, dass wir die surprise Hult-Hex zeigen können. Es ist wirklich toll, dass es nicht so schnell sterben ist. Aber auch nicht sterben ist die Mermit-A-Navy-Issue hier.

02:01:25 We're kind of just set here. The Reactive Armor Hardener, again, probably an issue. We can see some Republic Fleet Valkyries here to try to spread that Reactive around. But even with that, it's a little bit tough. The Kuro game, Losing Hole. And one important thing about the Hole Tank Brudix Navy issue. The Hole Tank uses the same slots that you use for damage mods.

02:01:53 Part of what's contributing to this long, slow standoff is if Kurogame has indeed filled the low slots with bulkheads, those are low slots that don't have magstabs in them. Exactly. Yeah, it's less DPS then, but it's going to be a nil biter. The Merminon Navy is in low armor here, but the Brutex Navy is also in low hull, very low hull. So we're going to see if the reps from the exec is going to be enough to keep the Merminavian alive.

02:02:24 So the Brudix Navy got off, Brudix Navy falls, the Brudix Navy did get off a link cycle before dying, which is going to be huge. That's going to be able to keep the Hyperion in a little bit more armor. And Jason Osren chunking into hull. So this is, oh, but the armor is just sort of creeping back. It might have, we might have stopped the bleeding with the death of the Brudix Navy issue. Right now.

02:02:51 Blood conned, just praying to the RNG gods for as many wrecking shots as possible. Now, even if Jason Osrin goes down, Yeetfleet Elite will still be behind in points. They will need to kill, I don't want to do mental math while also talking, but they'll need to kill one or two more ships, probably two more ships to actually win this. So Yeetfleet Elite here, they're mostly just running up the score. Yeah, and now finally the tracking tracked

02:03:21 Der Arbitrator konnte nicht den Tracking Disruptors mehr. Und der Momentan-Navy geht weiter. So jetzt die Kiting-Match beginnt. Die Frage ist, ob die Lazy-Picklets auf die Spiel ist? Oder sind sie lulled in, weil sie so lange sind?

02:03:42 We saw the Republic Fleet Valkyries go onto the Armor Stork of Stu Minor, but they are getting recalled by Bloodconnid. Bloodconnid heading in for the Arbitrator, it looks like. Yeah, that Arbitrator might only be after Benefit. It's going around 400 ms and slowing down now as the grappler getting applied to it. So that Arbitrator is going to meet some heavy neutral brasters, I think.

02:04:10 Ja, und die Arbitrator ist, die Valkyries sind auf es, die Newts sind auf es, die Damage ist auf es. So, Damage going on to the Arbitrator, aber mit 1 Minute remaining, das ist nicht genug Zeit, um das Arbitrator zu töten und etwas anderes zu töten, weil die Hyperion braucht zwei Arbitrator zu töten, um, in diesem Match zu töten. So, ich...

02:04:36 Honestly, super respect the hustle. I super respect staying locked in, doing your best. Don't worry about the time. Just kill the arbitrator, because if you're going to get it, then you're going to get it. If you're not, then you've lost the match anyway. But it's looking like a tough road here. Yeah, 30 seconds remaining here. And I don't think the arbitrator may still go down, but it will be tough to catch anything else in the meantime.

02:05:05 Also, the executor will still be able to wrap something here. Big wrecking shot there from the Arbitrator. The damps are a big factor. We can see those drones streaming across the arena. Five seconds remaining. And Bloodcon at Hyperion survived as long as it could. Did its best, but unfortunately was not able to solo the entire Lazy Piglet's team. So, very well fought.

02:05:34 We'll send this back to the desk for a short breakdown and then on to our break.

02:05:41 Hat jemand gesagt, dass du dein E-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le-Le

02:06:11 It's over. We will ensure that you get the restitution you deserve. And those who wronged you are punished. Don't choose some pencil pushing paralegal F1 monkey. Choose a legal FC who will jump through gates for you. Choose quality. Choose ISK.

02:06:46 Alright, and with that we are back as Yeet got themselves yeeted by the lazy piglets. Now with that...

02:07:02 Blaster Rush, Kevin! Yes, Blaster Rush! I believe this is the first time we have seen Blaster Rush in the tournament so far. And not only Blaster Rush, but whole tanked Blaster Rush. Which is a composition that we have not seen yet in the tournament, as far as I'm aware. But one that you see frequently on Tranquility on the main server. As this composition that...

02:07:32 Es ist besonders gut, wenn man etwas länger für etwas zu erwarten ist. Das ist eine Art von der Arbor-Bifrost, die wir schon erwähnt haben. Aber es gibt immer noch eine interessante Art von der Arbor-Bifrost, die wir schon erwähnt haben. Aber es gibt immer noch eine interessante Art von der Arbor-Bifrost, und ich glaube, dass...

02:07:55 mit der Hull-Tank, sie waren schon versucht, ihre eigene Bands zu holen, um nicht zu bekommen, aber es funktioniert sehr gut, mit einem viel tighteren Match, als ich erwähnt, für eine off-meta-Composition zu haben, und eine they executed, um sie zu bestellen, um sie etwas unterhalten, um sie aufzuhalten, und es funktioniert sehr gut.

02:08:21 Well, hey, it seemed to be an interesting match, honestly. I am...

02:08:30 Still kind of taking it in. But from chat they're saying both teams are lucky that you were not in the fight. Your cheekbones would have killed them all with their sharpness. But with that we are going to break. And after the break we will come back to rage sub cancel quit versus the German. Oh god.

02:08:59 I'm going to butcher this, but I'm going to try, because hey, I've been lazy the rest of the time, I'm going to try it. Magnetischenenschutz? German Railgun Team, those guys, will be back with that match here shortly, after a short break.

02:29:07 We are back with our next match, Rage Sub Cancel Quit versus Magneten Schienengeschütz. As we go into this next match, Allie, Rage Sub Cancel Quit. Their Kite Combo. Rush.

02:29:41 So the meta lately has been all these gun spam teams. Gun spam versus gun spam. Gun spam this, gun spam that. And RageSub cancel quit. They have a solution and the solution is the Torpedo Raven. And they just bring the Torpedo Raven into range. They apply torpedoes directly to the enemy hit points. And the enemy explodes. I'm very interested to see if that's going to continue. Or if other teams having noticed the rush.

02:30:07 Now we're going to see one of those like, oh, I know that you know that I know that you're going to bring the rush, so etc., etc., etc. I think it'll be interesting to see if they do choose to maybe go back to that or if they're going to be unpredictable and bring something new. With that, I'm going to go ahead and throw us into the bans. Rage, Sub, Cancel, Quit has banned the Armageddon, the Sentinel, and the Crucifier.

02:30:40 Oh, it's not going to happen again. Darn! Alright, the German Railgun Team has banned the Hyena, the Sentinel, and the Typhoon while we have been messing around with the names. Debs, talk to me about these bans. So, I mean, the first thing that you see here is that the Raven is not banned. Despite RaveSub bringing that several times, doing quite well with it, that has been left open. So then the immediate question becomes...

02:31:08 Is it left open because they've got a counter to it and they're hoping that it's brought? Or is it left open because they didn't see that or they're not scared of it? They don't know, they didn't do their research. So that then becomes the mind game. Do they know that we can still bring the Raven? Are they prepared for us to bring the Raven? Do we bring something besides the Raven because we think that they're baiting us into the Raven? It's that mind game here as we get deeper into the tournament that you're going to see a lot of.

02:31:38 And I'm not seeing, and with these bans, they have not banned the Tholos, which does leave them having a door, a window, a mouse hole open, potentially. Allie, what are your thoughts on that? So if Magna Scheinengeschutz is not banning the Tholos, then in all likelihood...

02:32:06 Either they have a plan for the Tholos, or they're planning to bring the Tholos. We've seen the Tholos appear in more comps than just Rush. We've heard Chad Flame talk about its potential as a control closer. If I thought the other team was going to bring Rush, and as Deeb said, the Rush is wide open. They could bring that entire comp they had, and they've brought the ban so they needed to bring.

02:32:33 So, it's open. They could bring it, but there might be a counter and that counter might be a control comp. Now, I do note that with the Armageddon band, it's going to be a little bit harder to put together some of that classic newt control, but we'll see what the two teams have decided to cook up here.

02:32:59 And with that, it does look like the teams have landed, and we will go ahead and throw it over the commentators and the arena to go ahead and see about getting this match started.

02:33:19 We welcome you back onto the arena. I'm going to be Tatof Arsene, aka Lemon Eater, your favorite citrusy commentator, and I'm going to be accompanied by the heat-generating master himself, Mr. Overlord. Care to introduce the teams for us?

02:33:32 Hello, thank you Mist11, thank you for that lovely introduction. So on your screen before you, you have in red Rage Sub, Cancel Quit, and of course in blue, the almost unpronounceable Magnetician Gschutz. And we see what looks like almost a mirror matchup here, which is, this is going to be an exciting one. So double Abadans, double Devoters, bit of a difference in T1 Logi choice here, Augur versus Executor, we'll see how that goes. And of course, Magnetician Gschutz choosing the dishonourable path and going for the Kitsune instead of the...

02:34:01 Mr. Totalt, what else do we see here? That sums it up pretty well. I think that the big difference here is going to be in that Battlecruiser slot with the BNI being more tanky, but having less choice of range projection and the fact that it needs to reload the ammo and damage as well. I believe the BNI can get a little more.

02:34:23 Ich würde sagen, der Devoter von RageSub ist in 10. Sie sind viel näher. Ich weiß nicht, ob sie sich in versuchen, oder ob sie zu schreien. In der Moment ist es so schreien. Both teams, Trude und Cowardice. Both teams, Retreaten.

02:34:41 Ja, ich denke, dass die Kitsune eine große Rolle spielen ist, weil wenn man die Geräusche auf den richtigen Tag hat, dann kann man die Geräusche auf den richtigen Zeit sein. Natürlich, aber das Kitsune ist eine große Rolle. Und die Abaddon, wenn es ein Wrecking Shot ist, wird das Geräusche verletzt werden. Ich sehe, dass die Devota wohl schon ist, weil die Geräusche auf den anderen Seite ist. Also, ein bisschen ein Stand-Off ist, dass jemand zu Commitieren, glaube ich. Ja, ich sehe, dass die Red Team...

02:35:10 Rage Sub, offering up that Prophecy on the Frontline, which is a very tanky-capable ship. So I think that is definitely where they want to lure the attention of. Yeah, the blue Devoter is making moves. He's heading in towards the Rage Quit team's Devoter as well. So I think they might be about to try and grab him. I see the Magus coming in to make sure his friends have got links as well. The Brutix of Magnetic Shining Shoots is taking the most amount of damage right now. So is that Devoter. In fact, I think this is it. The teams are now starting to brawl. They have found their balls, and here we go.

02:35:39 Definitely, although I think the Brawl naturally leans itself to Red Team, assuming that that Augur is full rep setup and doesn't have a cap transfer per chance, because it just gives them more repping capabilities. But it looks like both this Brutix Navy and this Devoter are taking heavy damage, although the Brutix could of course be Hull Tank, which is why its armor might be not super duper strong. Yeah, look at that Navy Proposy of Captain Shink, and he's going down faster now than the Navy Brutix was before.

02:36:02 Und das Augurer, wenn er auf der falsche Zeit ist, wird das Pivotal für den Rage-Subteam sein sein. Das Augurer ist wahrscheinlich mehr als der Executor, aber er wird nicht mehr als Mobility haben, wahrscheinlich. Er hat auch ein bisschen mehr SIG, das bedeutet, dass er ein bisschen weniger SIG ist, das könnte ein großer Teil sein sein, wenn es ein Logi geht. Looks like Prophecy Navy ist stabilisiert ein bisschen auf dem Tank, weil es um Remote Reps von den Repbots und den Logi gibt es.

02:36:29 Ja, so if you've ever played matches before, these are the type of matches that you come out of sweating, because nothing seems really happening right now. It's going back and forth, back and forth. But if any one of these pilots makes a mistake at the wrong time, they could cost their team the match. We are very, very evenly balanced right now. There's a bit more control coming from the Magnet Sheen-Gashuts right now, with that Kitsune just putting jams all over the place. But I mean, just look, right now no one is making moves.

02:36:54 Going for that Abaddon from the German Railgun team shooting the Red Team's Abaddon. Abaddon is a very tanky ship with great resists. Yeah, so Navy Britics of Fosaki is really eating shit right now. He has been grappled by the Abaddon. He's right on top of him. The reps are landing from the Executor. Can he rep through? Wow, okay. He's getting hammered down here really quick. If he falls, this is pivotal.

02:37:21 Ja, das ist es, ich denke, es wird ein Devoter auf dem Rage Subteam auf dem Rage Subteam an, aber nicht. Wow. Die Lacken DPS, sie waren bereits struggling zu brechen den Rage Subteam mit einem Navy Brutix. Ich denke, sie werden jetzt vielleicht ein paar Sekunden verloren, weil sie haben wahrscheinlich ein paar Sekunden verloren. Es ist auch, dass der DPS ist, die Devoter, Prophecy, Navy und Abadon sind. All of sie sehen, dass sie getötet werden.

02:37:47 I wonder if this is planned or if this is something that's putting a stop to consolidating DPS here. Yeah, it's interesting that despite all the jams preventing DPS onto that Navy Brutix, when the jams missed for one reason or another, suddenly that Navy Brutix really struggled to tank. I suspect these things aren't as heavily tanked as we thought. They were relying on the kitsune to go for more damage mods and hope that their executor could fill the difference with the kitsune jamming some things, but...

02:38:13 Es ist nicht so, dass das funktioniert für sie jetzt. Das ist nicht gut für ihn. So, interessant, wir müssen zurück und checken es, aber ich wundere, ob die Kitsune war, und dann die Karris war, und dann schlafen Damps auf ihn, um die Jams zu brechen. Weil wenn er zu weit entfernt ist, kann er seine Jams auf ihn nicht. Aber wenn du ihn einfach nicht, kann er sein wird, er ist sicher. Aber die Kitsune ist auch ein sehr fragiles Schiff, also kann er nicht weit entfernt sein, weil es all er braucht.

02:38:43 Ich sehe die Abadent starten, aber fair play to both Logistics Pilots hier. Melinda, ein extremem experienced Pilot in the Alliance Tournament, und Young Renegade, as well. Flying it very, very well, keeping his buddies alive as best he could. The Navy Britics just could not stand the DPS coming from that Abadent prof.

02:39:11 der Voter und wahrscheinlich der Magus mit diesen Drones zu tun. Aber fair play zu diesen Adjustments. Oh, Kitsun! Kitsun kam ein bisschen zu nahe, und es sieht aus wie die PNI hat es geschafft. Und da ist er. Ja, aber look at die Augur. Melinda-1 ist jetzt wieder in die Hull. Wenn er geht, dann könnte er wieder zurückkehren.

02:39:33 Ich würde sagen, wenn sie nicht das Augur first haben, sie müssen das Augur und das Exeggret alive. Das wird ihnen eine Chance geben, weil der Exeggret ist einfach mehr EHP in der Rabadon. Okay, er ist reppingen jetzt, so der Augur ist jetzt. Okay, wir haben ein guter Match hier. Das ist alles auf Young Renegade. Wenn er für eine Minute oder so kann, dann kann er so viel EHP back in sein, dass sie wieder starte zu trainieren.

02:40:00 He has Bloodsum Hall now. I think it's just a question of how long until that Ansel runs out. Yeah, and that's probably where he's getting a huge part of his tank. He's burning away as fast as little afterburners will carry him. But it doesn't look like it's fast enough. He is going to go down, I think. Okay, so here he goes. He falls. This is still pretty tight. I think Rage Sub have a little bit of an advantage here by virtue of still having their Navy Prophecy. And the fact that he looks that bad in the E is kind of going down like a sack of shit right now.

02:40:29 Ich meine, wenn sie die Abaddon verlieren, dann ist es wirklich verloren, weil sie die Carries haben, sie die Magnus haben. Oh ja, Abaddon geht es dann, das Spiel ist Jover. Ich meine, sie hat eine phänomenal Arbeit. Ich dachte, sie waren zu bringen es wieder zurück. Again, meine Kredite zu Young Renegade für das Team für das Team dauern, als wir vielleicht haben, wenn sie das Navy-Britix haben. Da geht es um die Abaddon der German-Railgun-Team. Das ist wahrscheinlich ein Ziel in der Match. GF-Set in Local, es sieht aus.

02:40:59 We have reached the end. I think everyone knows that unfortunately for Magnetic Shininga Shoots, this game is over. They have basically no DPS left and there's no chance that they can break through in Abaddon. They would prophecy in Devoter with just Devoter and Amagus. They are being tidied up neatly by Raged Up Castle Quit. That was a great match. Way closer than the show. There's going to be plenty for the boys and the deaths to talk about, so let's throw it right back.

02:41:28 Stop being casual. They're really bad. We should not lose anybody to this. Warp off. Warp off. Take the fleet warp. Everybody warp off. This is a really bad execution. I'm very disappointed.

02:41:55 Crush our enemies. Your dams are completely dammed out. Crush, I'm dammed out, I'm dammed out. Get out my chambers, boys. Heat your apps. Everything down. I've not been able to look this into the game. I'm jammed.

02:42:29 All righty, and we are back with German Railgun Team taking a loss on this round with... oh god...

02:42:42 I put my points on the other team, I'll be fair. I did think rage, sub, cancel, quit. You know, hey, I can English. Was fantastic. Now, talk to me about those damps with Nicholas, Kia, and Ali. He seemed on point with those. Yeah, every time a thing that you can do with the damps is...

02:43:09 Moving your damps between targets is often more effective than staying on a single target, because you'll start damping a target, that target might decide to come into range, or maybe the match just shifts so that that's not the most important target anymore. And then when you move your damps, you have the opportunity to either catch someone sleeping or catch someone who is trying to play a little bit safe. So we saw the damps go onto the kitsune at pivotal moments.

02:43:35 Die Kitsune war die einzige, die Brudix-Navy-Issue war. CCPOverload mentioned das in der match. Ich bin zurück, ich habe die Video gemacht. Es ist passiert. Die Dampen waren auch auf der Exekur. Und ich war sozusagen neben der Exekur in der match. Der Exekur war ungefähr 45, 50 off. Das ist eine sehr komforte Reppung-Distance. Until die Kitsune slams die Dampen, oder die Karrie slams die Dampen auf.

02:44:00 Very well done, very good reacting to the situation, finding the targets that needed to be damped and moving them around so that you can catch the person who is maybe a little bit further than they might need to be from their target.

02:44:14 And they definitely seem to take advantage of that in this last match. Next up though, we seem to have Whelp Drive Active versus Grief Team 6. Whelp Drive Active banning the Typhoon, the Sentinel, and the Ashimu. Grief Team 6 banning the Tholos, Hyena, and Sentinel. With that, devs, talk to me about these bans. What do you think we're going to see in the upcoming match?

02:44:43 Oh, that's interesting. So we see the Ashimu ban, which we've seen a couple of them, but not terribly many. But those are Longwebs, but still leaving the Hyena open, which conveniently the other team banned for them. So the only Longwebs option is a Crewer. So nothing in that sort of vein. No rushes going for that. Tholos, same thing. So we've got lots of strong bans against rushes.

02:45:13 So I doubt we see that the Typhoon is banned out, which is widely regarded as the kite option of choice. So no kite, no rush. It's going to be either something off meta, like drones, some sort of control, because that's still fairly wide open here, or the easy choice, two Octos slamming into each other.

02:45:40 It is anybody's game with any meta potential in this round. Allie, with Grief Team 6 representing Tuskers and co plus friends, Welp Drive Active, it doesn't have... Do you think that maybe having that experience?

02:46:02 I think the experience in the tournament totally matters. It helps you stay focused in these long games. One of the things that's really unique about this tournament, usually in the Alliance tournament, if you're a team that goes out in the top 32, the top 24, remember we started with 24 teams at the start of this day. If you're a team in the top 24, you probably play three games.

02:46:27 And you play three games spread across three different days. It's really easy, it's really nice, it's really relaxed. In this tournament, we're seeing a cadence closer to what you'll see towards the end of the Alliance Tournament Day 3 and in the final weekends when, or in the final day, where you're playing game after game after game. So we're in a situation where, you know, the team with the more experience, they might be a little bit better at staying fresh. You know, sure, we're gonna...

02:46:55 Ich glaube, das ist der erste Appearance, auf dieser Arena heute. Although es gibt auch die Games, dass sie in der Earlier Arena waren. So, beide Teams haben viel zu spielen. Sie sind in dieser Welt, wo sie einfach zu gehen, wieder und wieder und wieder.

02:47:21 At this point, also, we've seen enough of both teams' bans that, again, you get into that kind of level moment where you're like, oh, are they going to bring the same thing they brought last time?

02:47:32 And it is definitely a practice makes perfect, just as it does for any of these teams. Even the newer teams, even if they may not make it to the finals in the Charity Cup, I do hope that they keep practicing. Because it's so nice and it's refreshing to see the new teams and the new braining and just...

02:47:57 Die neue Blood in der Tournament range, you know? Keeping all this in mind, Deb, what are your predictions for this match? Who do you think is going to win? Just looking at the bans, I like the Welk Drive active bans over Grief Team 6. I have a slight disagreement with people over how good the Tholos is, and I think banning it...

02:48:26 is a wasted slot. So I'm going to go with Welp Drive Active, just because I don't like the solo span.

02:48:33 I can see it, but I can also see the potential for it, so I'm kind of in the middle. We'll continue to see how it does with this format and in the tournament. Allie, quickly, who are you putting your points on before we throw it to the arena? Right now, just knowing nothing else, I'd probably put my points on Grafe Team 6 purely based on tournament experience. That said, boundary experts,

02:49:02 Aka Welp Drive Active. They've also got some tournament experience. They've also got some people who've been around here a couple of times. You know, it could be anyone's game. And honestly, right now, things are getting so competitive. We've seen so many upsets already. I'm putting my points on grief team, but I don't know.

02:49:22 Personally, I have put my points on Grief Team as well, just because I like seeing the underdog have potential. But it does look like the teams have landed in the arena, so I think it's time that we send it back over to Mr. Lemon and Mr. Overlord to see and have some more spicy commentary on another match.

02:49:50 Hello and welcome back to the Arena. I am CCP Overload and I am with Tatthold Arsten for this exciting looking matchup. World Drive Active going up against Grief Team 6. A Scorpion, Mr. Tatthold. What do you make of that?

02:50:05 A very interesting ship that we have definitely not seen, I think, too much of playing into it. I think it's a very specific ship that needs to fly very well and that needs to get the right jams and have a little bit of luck on its side at the right times to get the victory, because you do trade a lot of damage for bringing the Scorpion. So I wonder how Welp Drive will play this, but the match is now about to start, so let's buckle in and get ready.

02:50:28 Ja, ich denke, es wird interessant zu sehen, wie gut die Carries für Gruft Team 6 ist, dass sie mit dem Skorpion spielen können. Denn, of course, die Drones haben, wenn sie auf den F-Bereich pressen, dann geht es nicht. Aber sie werden immer noch weiter für die Carries gehen. Sie werden einfach ihn aus dem Feld, in die Hull bereits. Kann Skylerhawk, kann Skylerhawk sein? Ja, er vielleicht kann. Er hat seine Reps, er ist wahrscheinlich overheating sie. Und das Carries ist wahrscheinlich...

02:50:54 Overheating his Prop Mod to get as far away from the DPS as possible. Okay, this is pretty close. He is just barely alive, walking a thin line. Yes, I don't think he's going to be alive much longer, though the damage is still hitting him, and he's down. So that is interesting. I'm interested to see why they went for that. The Scorpion is taking damage. He is hick-pointed. The Augur took a little bit of damage, but it's all fallen off now. But that Ewar control off the field, and now they're switching straight on to the Augur.

02:51:18 The carries was a vital point for them, because the carries were stamping their Scorpion, which was limiting how much utility the Scorpion could project on the field, I think, which was the main play there. Yes, I mean, that carries would last a lot longer than possible. I thought he was about to get clapped, but he did not get clapped. He survived at least about 50 seconds. And I don't know what the time stamp for clapping is, but I'm going to say it's going to be like 20 seconds for a frigate. That's a clapping.

02:51:42 He fell very fast, and he didn't have much time to survive. Looks like Skylar getting hit here for Grave's team in the Lodgy. Yeah, really not much DPS being applied onto Welp Drive Active right now. Everyone's sitting pretty. There's some reps kind of being spread around, presumably drones, but no one looking very threatened. The Scorpion has got the most amount of damage coming onto him, but really not very much. Skylar Hawk, of course, again, a very experienced pilot.

02:52:08 from numerous Alliance tournaments, and of course winning last year as well. Heat is doing a great job. There is jams coming obviously from that Scorpion. They're probably going to be really messing with Grief Team 6. Definitely.

02:52:23 It looks like they're not able to do too much on that Scorpion as much as they're liking to primary it, now switching to the carries instead by the looks of it, getting some damage on the bat. Yeah, I mean, I think they're in a bit of a rut right now. They need to figure out something, because they're bleeding damage across the Magus, the Augur, and the Prophecy Navy issue right now. The Scorpion of Chadwick is kind of sitting pretty high armor. The Augur of Cute Cucumber Roll, which is a great name, is a little bit threatened, but...

02:52:50 really that magus of ban if he goes down they're going to they've got picking time bomb of when their links run out oh hang on alazana chorrigan might have just been caught

02:53:04 And it looks like the Phobos is keeping Hyperion of Wex just completely and utterly tackled away from anything. So he's not getting his damage applied to anything. This is why it's such a one-sided match so far. They are doing a great job screaming that Hyperion. Problem with the Hyperion, very, very slow. Great local tank, great damage, but I have to get there.

02:53:27 Definitiv. Ich meine, mit dem Reils, und all Projekte Weapon Systems. Ich meine, in ein Scenario wie dieses, sie wollen so viel Dämmchen werden, weil sie die DPS haben. So, limiting die DPS und die Skorp, die es versucht, um die Tarkets zu tun, aber es sieht, dass es nicht unbedingt nötig ist, weil Skyler ist low, und ich weiß nicht, dass Skyler ist. Ja, Skyler wird bald.

02:53:51 Definitely. I think it's a question of if he managed to reload the Ansel in the short time that he had off. But he's also very close to the edge of the arena. He is 112 right now and still pulling range. If anyone can do it, I trust Skyler. Oh, hang on. Look at Chadwick now. I think the Hyperion must have just trundled into range because the damage is now landing hard on him. If they lose this Scorpion, this could really flip this match. But look at Skyler. He is into Hull. He is trying his best to stay alive.

02:54:19 Wenn sie eine Skorpion für einen Augur, dann ist das Spiel wieder offen. Oh Gott, Skylar, du musst du bleiben, mein Freund, du bist, du bist, du bist, du bist, du bist, du bist, du bist, du bist, du bist, du bist, du bist, du bist. Ja, Skorpion, Chadwick, doch, reppig, kommend in von CuteCugumberRoll in den Augur. Oh, if they can kill this one, there's so much control off the field. It's a big, big law.

02:54:45 Jacob's taking damage in the Prophecy Navy there. He's still quite the halt to go, but yeah, it doesn't look like they're getting much fun on the Scorpion now. I feel like it should have died 30 seconds ago at this point for them to still be able to pull out, because look at Jacob in that Prophecy Navy. He is bleeding through his armor as well. Now, they are going to lose the Scorpion. They're going to kill it.

02:55:10 Ich bin nicht sicher, wo sie sie in den Points sind, aber es ist eigentlich extremelig close, wenn nicht Equal. Oh, da ist der Skorpion. Ich denke, sie hat Potenzial. Ich denke, Grief Team kann das auch wiederholen. Ja, es wird so gut sein. Sie müssen nicht die Profis-Navy-Schuhe. So, wenn sie Rettbots haben, sie müssen sie auf den Profis-Navy-Schuhe. Aber, ich meine, sie sind 5 Points behind. Wenn sie die Keris nicht verlieren, in den nächsten 4.5 Minuten sind, ich meine, gut luck. Oh, Augur, jetzt. Sie sind die Augur.

02:55:37 Ich glaube, dass die Hyperion und die Dammage haben, die es auch noch hat, wenn es nur ihn und die Devoter ist. Ich denke, es ist eine Frage, ob sie den Auger können. Es ist eine Frage, ob sie den Auger können. Also, es sieht aus, ob sie die Auger können. Oh, ja, sie sind jetzt hier. Oh, ja, sie sind jetzt hier. Sie müssen Jakob alive. Er ist ein Drone Boat. Er sollte sich in der anderen Richtung bewegen. Er ist weg, zu sagen. Okay, so, hier wir go. Jetzt, sie haben die Lied. Grief Team Sex currently hold.

02:56:05 A 13-point lead, but they are potentially going to lose Jacob in this Prophecy Navy. Welp, Drive Active need to kill it, and then they're back on top. It's getting very, very close here. Carries is getting hit here. I think the Carries might be causing some disruption for Grief Team, which is why they might be primering it here, but Jacob is going to fall, and down he goes. Grief Team don't have any Logi left, apart from Logi Bots, so basically any damage put onto that Carries is almost certainly...

02:56:34 uh damage that won't be recovered so 48 to 40 we're back with welp drive active in the lead but that carries is dropping pretty low and that carries worth nine points which if it goes down will put grief team sex back in the lead again so we are really on like single point victory potentially

02:56:51 We also need to keep in mind that Hyperion has a bonus to armor rep, so it's probably Ansel Local Tank. It can definitely give it a lot of EHP to chew through for Welp Drive, so it still has potential, even if left on its own. But the question is, can the Devoter stay alive to help it apply very well? He needs to just GTFO and... They need to kill drones and try and survive at this point. They've got a one-point lead.

02:57:16 Out of that are they go all in on something like the Magus and assume that they're going to lose their Devoter and try and just win on points here. Because that Devoter, I think, unless he gets out... No, he is hick-pointed, he can't get out. It's going to go down. So that will put them... I don't even know at this point. Maths is just way too difficult. I'll only do maths at up to 10, which is how many fingers I have.

02:57:37 It looks like they're trying to kill that Magus, which is probably like the last very, very capable tackle ship that could be threatening the Hyperion, because a Magus is hard for the Hyperion to clear off, but... Oh, there they trade. Okay, 67 to 60. They have to kill a Phobos or a Navy Prophecy, but that Navy Prophecy, ladies and gentlemen, you can tell what he might be eating, because he is into half armor, and a Prophecy untackleable.

02:58:03 Well, no, that's not true, there's a Phobos. That's a blatant lie. A mostly tacklable Hyperion can still catch that Prophecy Navy issue. Prophecy Navy's not well known for their kiting ability.

02:58:14 Definitely, but they are known for amazing projection and tracking, which is what it's trying to demonstrate here on that Magus, as he's just hitting him from a mile away. I think that what Hyperion really needs is help getting tackle on either of the two big ships, so it can pull some range, although I doubt it has the speed to get away here. The Magus is heading for a microjump beacon, which is a great move if there's drones coming towards him, which there's not. The Hyperion is just kind of trundling around doing his own thing, but he is right on top of that Prophecy Navy issue.

02:58:43 Ich denke, das Hyperion kann das Profis-Navia in der nächsten Minute und 30 Sekunden. Und sie sind nicht die Hyperion, sie sind für die Magus, die jetzt regaining die Shield, so es sieht so aus, als ob die Völbträfe ist effektiv um Zero Damage zu machen. So, Ladies und Gentlemen, ich werde versuchen, die Hyperion zu sprechen.

02:59:11 You are missing. Your guns are missing. You need to either transversal match, or you need to just control space and stuff. Because this is a Railgun Hyperion, and he is being out-tracked right now by the Prophecy Navy issue. But it looks like, yes, so he's now pulling range, forcing the Prophecy Navy issue to get in behind him, which will allow him to start hitting. But there's only 55 seconds, and this Prophecy Navy is out of rank in armor. I'm doing a lot here to get that done.

02:59:37 Es ist alles auf diese zwei Piloten. CO4A vs. WEXSM. Kann ein Prophecy Navy keep himself alive unter den Rheilgunen Hyperion sein? Oder kann ein Hyperion das Hyperion manually piloten sich um, und damit die Dammage gemacht werden, ohne dasselbe. Ich denke, das geht um die Wahrheit, weil Hull auf diese Dinge ist gut, aber nicht so gut. Also, die Magistin ist hier mit der Targetpaint auf die Prophecy Navy.

03:00:05 Ich denke, Omega needs to burn in right now and just scram this Prophecy Navy down. There's only 17 seconds left. I don't think he's going to do it. I think he's going to survive. I think CO4 is going to pick his team up, place them gently upon his shoulders, and carry them across the victory line as he survives in Hull, under the guns of Wex. And he does it. There you go. Ladies and gentlemen, he survives. Welp Drive Active, take that. Incredibly exciting match. Holy crap. Any comments? 11 point deference.

03:00:34 Das ist sehr nahe, und es war ein Nailbiter. Es ging ein paar Mal wieder. Sehr interessant. All right, back to the Arena. No, wir sind in der Arena. Back to the Booth.

03:01:05 Bis zum nächsten Mal.

03:01:48 With that, we see Grief Team Six take a Grief. Man, what a match! Okay, Hyperion! Ally! Did it not have Tackle? It might have had a scram, we can't tell because it wouldn't have mattered, but it...

03:02:13 Critically speaking, did not have a web or a grappler, either of which would have slowed the orbiting Prophecy Navy down just enough for it to get deleted. So for want of a web, the match is lost. We, the viewers, were greatly entertained.

03:02:31 Oh my gosh, that was, I think so far, the closest match of the cup at this point. But next up we have the Lazy Piglets and Neglect Emotionally. Wow, words! The Lazy Piglets banning the Scorpion, Tholos, and Eden, Neglect Emotionally, the Sentinel, Arbitrator, and Scorpion, Debs.

03:03:00 Talk to me about these bands. Well, both of these teams have seen those control setups. They don't like them. They're getting scared of control. They've seen how effective it can be when done well. They both respect the other team enough that they're going, no, we don't want to see those controls. We want to be able to shoot our guns. That's a real baseline sort of ask. We would like to be able to fire our weapons. Not seeing the sentinel only arbitrator.

03:03:26 Or the Armageddon, same thing. It's all getting rid of that control, allowing these teams to fight it out and brawl and use positioning and application to do the fighting instead of not sitting there and not taking any damage. We also see the Tholospan, like we've talked about before, that's not wanting to see a rush, probably. We've seen it in some other comps, but it's usually a rush comp. So we don't want to see a rush. We don't want to see control. That really only leaves Octo.

03:03:54 Yep, I wonder if we might, and theorizing here, if we will see a Octo versus Shockto or Shield Octo, but we will not know until the teams and the match begin. So with that, let's go ahead and throw it over to the arena and Mr. Lemon and Mr. Overload. We welcome back onto the arena now.

03:04:23 Little lazy piglets alongside with neglected emotionally here. What interesting comps. Indeed, one of them seems to be running the aforementioned Shocktodad. Yes, the Shocktodad. And of course, we see, I mean, honestly, this is interesting to the comps here. We've got shield versus shield. After all the armor versus armor, it's time for shield on shield. We have the raven on one side going up against the rook.

03:04:46 And Legend does say that you cannot stop the Roke, but we will find out if it can or cannot be stopped right now. I like this Phantasm pick. It's a good ship. Does a lot of damage. Very mobile with his AB bonus. And of course, Scythe versus Osprey is always an interesting one. The Scythe has that mobility. The Osprey has that dank booty, so it's slow as heck, but it does rep a lot.

03:05:05 The Hyäna into Hyäna E-War is also going to be interesting on what they're going to do, or whether they might just end up webbing each other and idling it out for the rest of the match, basically. Yeah, I mean, the Lazy Pickles came in almost at zero, with their Onyx and their Raven at zero, so I suspect they're probably going to be crews, and they're just going to sit and fling missiles all over the arena, and let's see who the first primary is. It is the Navy Ferox and the Stork are our first primaries in this match.

03:05:33 Brock ist nicht mehr, und ich sehe es nicht mehr. Können wir das vielleicht ein DC hier sehen? Oh, jetzt ist es. Vielleicht ist es nicht mehr tracking. Hier geht's. Oh, sie hat den Stork. So, sie sind alles gut. Die Osprey ist, glaube ich, von der Prüse Raven. So, er ist einfach nur counting seine Charges, weil das heißt, wie lange er will leben. Er wird die Nummer, es wird 5, dann wird es 4, und er weiß.

03:06:00 He has that many seconds times the cycle time of his XLSB until he dies.

03:06:08 Es wird sehr interessant sein, mit dem Auspray von Tangen zu tun. Ja, das Hyäne ist ein paar Kontrolle für die Neglect Emotionally-Team. Das ist eine große Loss für sie, aber sie werden können für die Lazy Piglet. Es sieht aus wie Scorch-Celeste ist ein guter Job, dass Hyäne alive ist. Der Auspray, er hat sich in den Auspray zu retten. Er hat sich in den Auspray zu retten. Er hat sich in den Auspray zu retten.

03:06:35 Firing them. So he did not reload. I'm pretty sure they didn't chew through all his charges. They swapped onto that Hyena, and he didn't take the bait. Definitely, but I think if No Victories loses to Sosper here, I think that's going to be a big tide switching point for them, because I definitely do think that that constant pressure of the Cruz Raven is going to just keep on hitting the blue team hard, hard, hard, hard, hard, and that's going to be leaving them with...

03:06:59 They struggle to keep the EHP to win. Jägen hat an impossible choice. If he tries to fly far enough away from the Raven, then he either boundaries or leaves his team behind. Or if he stays behind to try and rep them, then he's going to die because there's no one else to rep him. There goes the Osprey. Yeah, this could start to snowball, but if they break Jason here... I can't believe I've seen him. Here he is. Right here, ladies and gentlemen. It's Jason or Zahn. What a gri.

03:07:27 um he is in lowish shield it doesn't look too concerned right now but it depends um oh cyphus that's just getting getting targeted now scorching the site is being the one the one in question here what a fast ship 3.8 km a second he is probably heating here yeah i think it won't matter at this point like the rock got down as well probably plink him off and that phantasm can probably do some damage but

03:07:52 Er kann einfach nur aus dem Engagement range aus den Schiff relativ schnell. Ich denke, er ist einfach nur ein Buffer Tank, Scythe. Vielleicht. Oder er kann sich nicht aus den Charges aussehen. Ich habe nicht gesehen, dass ich ihn nicht gesehen habe. Er ist einfach nur ein Buffer Tank, Scythe. Er ist einfach nur ein Buffer Tank, und er wird die, von den Ferrox und den Rokkern.

03:08:20 Es ist noch nicht so leicht. Sie sind nur 9 Punkte behind. Das ist eine Nummer ich kann. Ich habe das viele Fingern. Und ich habe gelernt von Twitch Chat, dass ich meine Toes kann. Wir sind auf Math 101 hier. Aber wenn sie das Hyäna verlieren, dann Lazy Piglets verlieren vieles ihre Kontrolle, das wirklich hilft, die application der Kruse Muscil. Das Paint ist super important. Und dann geht es Hyäna down.

03:08:45 But the Ferox Navy is in much lower shield than the Cyclone Fleet, so I think it's a question of how well they can create damage. But I think that just as of the current standing, I think No Victors is a little more damage than Lazy Piglets here. It's a question of how well they can use that if that Ferox Navy dies. It's going to die. It is about to die. Oh, it just repped itself. There you go. There he falls. He tried, my friend. But he is now dead. Jason, on the other hand, famously, not dead.

03:09:14 Still repping, so he has a local tank as well to assist with his lack of scythe problem right now. Mira Chief, just sitting at zero, just chilling, just hanging out, flinging them, and big missiles all over the arena into the faces of Phantasm and Rolk. Who they choose to probably now will be interesting, because... Looks like it's Mira now. Mira's getting shot here, by the looks of it.

03:09:38 Er ist nicht viel DPS aus dem Team gekommen. Ich glaube, sie haben beide vergessen, dass das Spiel noch nicht fertig ist. Wer sind sie an? Okay, ich fahre die Missiles. Sie sind an Phantasm. Mirachieve, der Allianz-Tournament-Winning-Captain der Tuskern, ist es sicherlich eine der Auswahl-Fantasm-Fantasm. Es ist sicherlich eine der Auswahl-Fantasm-Fantasm-Fantasm-Fantasm-Fantasm-Fantasm-Fantasm-Fantasm-Fantasm-Fantasm.

03:10:06 But I suspect most of the damage has to come from the drones.

03:10:12 Phantasm does have repbots on him, but it looks like he's getting shot. I think it's just the fact that The Rock can get so, so, so much EHP that can make it a really difficult target to chew through. I think Phantasm is burning in to try and put, presumably, max crystal damage upon Mirachieve. He's definitely not trying to get under the guns, because that's not how this works. But he should just be ABing around as much as he possibly can to try and second tank these cruise missiles. Maximizing his speed is his main goal here, then.

03:10:41 Yes, he should not slow down. He should do wide orbits. He should probably go to medium range ammo and trade off some DPS for survivability. It might be a little too late, though, because that may even appear to be brick tanked.

03:10:56 mit Kruisers kann es so afford to do. Kruisers just shoot the range of the entire arena at base on the Raven, so its range needs to be amplified. Of course, application per chance, like Missile Guidance Computers, but I think they are attempting to use paints and other ships to aid in that application, leaving the Raven to be a very, very tanky ship on-grid. Yeah, I mean, the Hyena was an important pick for Lazy Piglets there, giving that additional

03:11:25 Target painting bonus. GFs appearing in Local. So I'm pretty sure... Neglect emotion there. Feeling emotionally neglected right now by the Roke. The Roke's still alive though. Not sure he can solo carry this thing based on the rate that he is now taking damage. And the rate of GFs appearing in Local. But... You never know.

03:11:50 Es ist noch eine mögliche Möglichkeit, etwas zu ändern, aber ich glaube, es ist relativ gut hier. Rauch also muss sich die Schild sehr schnell verändern. Ich weiß nicht, ob er noch einen Tank hat. Ich weiß nicht, was der Tank ist, auf Mere Achieve Raven. Vielleicht niemand wirklich testet es, aber es ist ziemlich tanky. Fair play für sie. Das ist eine gute Team, natürlich. Great Pilots.

03:12:15 They all flew extremely well, but shout out to, again, the Neglect Emotionally pilots. They did pretty well. That Osprey Tungan surviving a really long time. I thought he was going to die a lot earlier than he did. He managed to boost at the right time. He didn't want to overrep. And did a pretty good job repping his team and keeping them alive as long as he possibly could. But unfortunately, as Hui Kante goes into armor...

03:12:42 I'm pretty sure this one is going to be going the way of the lazy piglets. Yeah, not much you can do here, I don't think. Raven's also close. It's probably firing Furies by this point, so it's not much that we can do except for sit here and accept his fate. We could admire the skin game. Skin game's pretty good on the rogue. Pretty poor on Mira Chief, not gonna lie, Mira. Very disappointing. Definitely, they have spent the time in Pyfen, the fitting window, rather than in

03:13:12 GFs. Damn, I'm thirsty. Ah, that hits the spot.

03:13:46 Farmer's Bar could be anywhere.

03:14:21 And with that we see Neglect Emotionally Emotionally Neglect the people who put channel points on them. And let them down just a little bit. But, you know, it's what happens. But with that, Allie, we noticed I don't know if this was the first matchup, but it was pretty unnoticeable matchup between the Osprey and the Scythe.

03:14:50 In this format, are there different strengths and maybe was it the right choice?

03:14:59 Ja, so both the Osprey and the Scythe have their points. The Scythe has finally received buffs. It has gone from unplayable to an alternative. The Osprey is going to be much more familiar to people who have been doing a lot of AT before. So both ships have the poor capacitor and poor tank of the TEC-1 Logistics, but the Scythe is a very, very zoomy ship. And so we could see that Scythe was able to reposition very well around the grid.

03:15:28 Und Osprey hat mehr Reps, aber es geht nicht darum, wenn ihr mehr Reps habt, wenn ihr nicht mehr Reps habt. Die Reps sind nur gut, wenn ihr eigentlich Reppen habt. Das ist wirklich die Osprey vs. Scythe difference. Es gibt wahrscheinlich auch andere Fitting Differences. Du kannst beide Ships mit an Ansel, du kannst beide Ships mit Buffer. Du musst einfach nur in Pythia und Mathen aus. Wenn ich alle Ansel scharfen habe, wird das noch mehr Hit Points geben?

03:15:57 than having a buffer module.

03:16:02 Yeah, I mean, honestly, I've flown both. I think it's interesting. I wonder how we will see them go forward in the competition to see how what ends up coming out to be the most used or top lodgy. With that, the application and tracking of the Roke and just in general, Debs, how did that impact this match?

03:16:29 Well, we saw a couple of good points where the Roke was able to reach out and apply with the, I believe, carries going down very, very quickly for the other team. It was also generally applying the entire match. It was able to reach out. It was able to hit that site, even though it was so fast and so far, because it did have the application to do so.

03:16:53 Then on the other side, we saw cruise missiles struggle just a little bit on applying to smaller ships, and then especially against the Phantasm with its afterburner bonus, we saw how long it took for an untanked bonus cruiser to fall under that damage because the afterburner allowed it to shed so much of the damage through speed. So application and tracking...

03:17:17 Both really important in that. And we saw that the cruises being able to reach out and touch anything, even if just a little bit, might have given them the advantage over the rope, which can reach out and touch things, but struggled a little bit more with tracking.

03:17:33 Well, as the Roke reaches out and touches things, I'm going to reach out and just touch on the fact that this is a charity cup. We are raising money for Weston Hospice Care, which does help those in need with hospice in the UK. At this point, we are 154% over the goal. So just a shout out to everybody and a thank you for everybody who has donated.

03:18:01 Next up is Honkai Delta Force versus Aggressively Mid-Tier. Honkai banning the Megathron Prophecy Navy issue in the Phobos. Aggressively Mid-Tier banning the Arbitrator, Sentinel, and Crucifier. Allie, very quickly, go over these bans with me, please.

03:18:23 I think you're muted, Allie. I think the muterator, the mute spawn got you. Yeah, yeah, sorry. I've got some background noise I'm trying not to share with everyone else here yet. So these bans, similar to some things we've seen before, the Megathron is a little bit of an interesting ban. Megathron and Phobos are banning out two strong Galente ships. Meanwhile, Arbitrator, Sentinel, Crucifier, no weapon disruption allowed.

03:18:53 So with that, we'll see what they bring. We'll see what happens as we throw it to the arena. Mr. Lemon, Mr. Overlord, take us into this match.

03:19:06 Onto the Grid, we welcome Honkai Delta Force in Aggressively Mid-Tier with a full Newt Geddon and a Rail Rock. What are we thinking here, Overlord? How does this match up? Well, I mean, full Newt Geddon is an interesting strategy. Newt's, of course, very powerful in tournament format over time. The lower the cap is, the easier it is to kill your enemies.

03:19:30 Und es wird viel zu tun mit den Dronen, also. Sie sind in einem sehr starken Rang, mit 50 Kilometern. Versus Aggressive Materialien. Sie haben eine Phantasm in 30 Kilometern. Wir werden sehen, wie geht es erst. Ich glaube, die beiden werden beide versuchen, zu gehen. Ich glaube, das ist Railrock, Rail-Ferrocks-Navy, Beam Phantasm.

03:19:50 Osprey, Jackdaw, und natürlich das Carries. The Jackdaw ist wirklich sehr stark bei deletingen Small Ships, so das Carries von King MYF ist zu schauen, und kremmt in seinen Kaldari-flavoured Boots. Aber natürlich, sie haben Stratus auch, so sie sind für eine Full Drone-Comp hier. So das Carries auf dem Aggressiv-Mid-Tier-Tier-Tier-Tier-Tier-Tier-Tier-Tier-Tier-Tier-Tier-Tier-Tier-Tier-Tier-Tier-Tier-Tier

03:20:17 all cap-based except for the jackdaw. So those newts can actually reduce damage as well, which is, I think, big, versus if it was like a missile or a projectile ship matchup for them. Yeah, exactly. But of course, they have to get close enough to get them on there. Now, the Armageddon does have a range bonus to newts, which means it will be able to newt from further away than anything else. Exactly. Looks like the target progressively mid-tiered here.

03:20:39 Ja, das ist ein guter Target zu gehen. Der Strong Power von Rails ist die Distanz hier. Er ist jetzt hier und erinnert das Exeggator. Er wird sich um, wie er ein Micro-Warp-Drive fit ist, glaube ich. Er wird sich um, wie er seine Lokal-Tank ist. Der Drone Cloud ist jetzt nach Iskander hier. Aber es sieht aus wie er ein bisschen schneller ist, bevor die Drone sind. Ja, er hat sich das Terrible...

03:21:05 ...decision that all Tournament Pilots must once make when they are approaching the arena boundary of turning and letting the drone cloud catch up. And there it goes. Yeah, that was someone, well, one, two, three, four, five people pressed F on that carries is what just happened.

03:21:21 What more can he do at this point? Well, I mean, if that Executor dies, then that's a pretty good trade for the aggressive mid-tier team. I would say above mid-tier for that trade if they can kill it. He is looking like he's maybe boosting on cap now because he's slowing right down. No, he's not slowing down. He's speeding right up now. Jackdaw falling very quick as well by the looks of it. If this Osprey of Rima isn't able to rep him up, this could be a quick hit there for the Jackdaw down too. But I think the Exocor will fall first.

03:21:49 Ja, das Jackdott ist jetzt in Defensive Mode. Hier wir gehen, so die Reps are landing, er ist in Defensive Mode jetzt. Er hat Spam-Pressed-That-Button und die Osprey-Repped-Em. Natürlich, er würde in Sharp-Shifter-Mode jetzt sein. Er ist jetzt in Defensive Mode, er wird es eher zu bleiben. Sie werden das Executor, ich denke. Er ist ein bisschen zurückgegangen. Er ist noch ein bisschen zurückgegangen, aber Rails haben einfach einen Vorteil in dieser Situation, besonders in dieser Schild-Armour-Comp.

03:22:16 Fürsure, und als wir in den Beginn des Matchen können, Drones können ein bisschen awkward werden, wenn sie sich auf jemandem zu bringen. Aber jetzt, wenn sie die Osprey getrennt haben, dann ist es wegen der Fakt der Rolle für Dämme. Daher gibt es eine Chance, dass sie eine verrückte Dämme haben, wenn sie horrible Tracking gegen dich haben, und sie sind gar nicht able zu apply.

03:22:34 Rima in Alfre went down a lot faster than his compatriot in the Executor. That's going to make a big amount of difference, you know. The carries in the Magus looks like is the suggested trade here. Carries follows Magus soon to fall too. It's a DPS race at this point now with all Logi off the field. We usually say the Tech 1 and the Dark 2 are just logistic speed bumps. And in this case, the LWX was a much more effective speed bump than the Osprey. However, I say that...

03:22:59 We're almost even right now, so we've lost the entire bottom half of both sides. But look at that, the Newt's are now onto that Phantasm, and the Navy Pherex. So that Armageddon has got into Suggysuck range and is starting to apply. It is just a matter of time now until those guns and those tanks shut down. I mean, look at that Pherex Navy. He definitely doesn't even have... Oh, he does have Hardeners up. No, he doesn't have Hardeners up by the looks of his ship right now. Which is definitely inconvenient, because it means it is.

03:23:28 Schild is worth a lot less than it could have been before. Yeah, you can see the difference of these newts from Lou. It was obviously a bit of a gamble bringing an all-newt Armageddon, but you can see here it is paying off as that Navy Ferox is probably capped out. I don't even know if he's shooting, let me see. He is not. Not shooting, yeah. So he is totally capped out. He is basically...

03:23:52 und einfach nur ein E.H.P. und einfach nur ein E.H.P. und einfach nur ein E.H.P. und einfach nur ein E.H.P. und einfach nur ein E.H.P. und einfach nur ein E.H.P. und einfach nur ein E.H.P. und einfach nur ein E.H.P. und einfach nur ein E.H.P. und einfach nur ein E.H.P. und einfach nur ein E.H.P.

03:24:14 Let's shout out to Megatdiff, he's flying in and out, so he's doing Link drive-bys on his buddies to keep them alive, so obviously he got hit by those rails, flew away, the enemy, they only see things that move directly in front of them, so they forgot about his existence, and they've ignored him for a while now, so he's regen a bunch of shield, but he's been flying in, popping Links, and flying back out again, so good play from him. It looks like they're shooting the Phantasm, but the Phantasm is a decent bit away, and his Hardeners are up, so they weren't able to nuke Hardeners off of him.

03:24:43 Ja, er ist Neutert, er ist Painted. Wie weit weg ist er von den Geden? Er ist ein Smart Move und Burning in die opposite Richtung, aber ich glaube, es wird nicht genug sein. Das Navey Mermadon, ich glaube, er wird nicht sterben. Ich glaube, er wird stabilisieren, als das Phantasm geht. Für mich ist das Phantasm der Phantasm der größten Bedeutung. Es gibt uns ein bisschen Disco Party auf der Seite der Mermadon und Kachemir.

03:25:11 Ja, I mean, Phantasm, of course, he is going to be thanking Honkai Delta Force, because they've had their medium armor bots following around repping them for the last while now. So usually in tournament play, what we say is put your rep bots on your own team. This is an elite tactic I'm letting you into here, so pay attention. Put your rep bots on your own team. Don't put them on the enemy team. The reason we do this is because it makes your team last longer instead of the enemy. This is a pro tip. You can take that home. Use your receipts.

03:25:40 They are still going to lose that Merman Navy though.

03:25:43 Definitely, I think his Ancel's run out of pace, and fitting other than an Ancel rep oftentimes doesn't make sense. Yeah, but how much HPF does Armageddon actually have? He's going to have his drones. The Stratius has drones. Domagus has some drones. So the question is, can a Railroke, which is webbed, scrammed, and about to be muted, dry by Armageddon, do anything before that Geddon gets to him? That's the question. They're about 50k apart, so...

03:26:11 From the looks of it, Roch still has his Shield Hardeners up, which is a massive difference in the amount of EHPs that he has. Run from it to wherever that Armageddon is coming from. Look at the speed difference here. 49, he's scrammed webbed. Geddon is doing 800 MS straight towards him. Once he gets there, he's not going to shake it. So what he needs to do to have a chance is try and scram off or kill off that Magus and just GTFO.

03:26:38 Okay, he's unwebbed. He's moving again. Can he get to that MJD beacon that he is crawling his arms forward towards? He's trying to get there. Of course, it's going to be a bit of a maneuver to turn a big fat boy like a Roke around and MJD away if he can manage it. But we will see as the Newts land now on top of the Roke. He is still definitely a decent bit away, I think. And now with the Newts on him, I don't think he's able to turn on his MWD anymore. So his speed's also very slow. Yeah.

03:27:06 Er ist so nah, aber so weit entfernt. Er ist mehr als 10 Kilometer entfernt von der MJD-Beacon und er macht 112 MS. Das ist schrecklich. Aber look, er ist das Radius. Er ist die Umegas. Er hat die Armour und Armour-Buffles left. Ich denke, es ist 07 für Kan-Passo. Oh, er hat eine Shield zurück. Er ist eigentlich ziemlich nah. Ich weiß nicht. Ich weiß nicht.

03:27:35 Weil er ist nicht tackled. So er kann MJD, wenn er in die Range ist. Und er ist Turning and Aligning. Ich glaube, er wird versuchen und es zu tun. Come on, Kan. Ich glaube, es ist worth it. A Master Sigbloom will mean... Ja, aber er wird die, wenn er hier ist. So ich denke, er hat es zu versuchen. Er hat es zu tun. Er hat es zu tun, wenn er 30 Sekunden hat, weil er in die Hull ist.

03:28:03 Ja, ich denke, er ist. Ich denke, er ist... Ich denke, er ist... Was ist die Tie-Break in das Ding? Wenn er die Stratios killst, dann ist er die Stratios. Ich denke, er wird los. Ich denke, er wird die. Ja, ich denke, er kann nicht nur die DPS, um die Get-In-A-Lone zu gewinnen. Kill Stratios, kill it! Da, er fällt. Failed at the last hurdle. If only he had killed that Stratios, the match was his. Or so, he will tell the rest of his friends. I mean, almost happened.

03:28:29 Okay, exciting match. Very good piloting from a number of pilots there. We are in the arena, so we shall be sending it back to the booth.

03:28:57 I'm Lemmy W. Isk of Isk, Shogatsu & Carbon Attorneys, Gita44's premier litigation law firm. The time for being a victim? It's over. We will ensure that you get the restitution you deserve, and those who wronged you are punished.

03:29:18 Don't choose some pencil pushing paralegal F1 monkey. Choose a legal FC who will jump through gates for you. Choose quality. Choose ISK.

03:29:44 And with that, another team falls. We see... Oh, goodness. Where's my...

03:29:59 Anyway, with that, yes, we see things go down. Allie, with that, what is this, what's your drone comps on Thunderdome like? It doesn't have all quite suits, but is it different than it would be on like TQ?

03:30:20 So drones in Thunderdome are a little bit notorious for being a little bit more spacey than the drones on TQ. On TQ, you press F and then the drones charge out and stay on something by and large for the whole time. On Thunderdome, you know, it's a smaller server and things like that. And sometimes it has been noted the drones, you push F, the drones get halfway there and then they decide, I'm tired, I'm going on break.

03:30:49 So, one of the things that can be challenging with drone comps in the tournaments, that makes them seem more challenging than they are, actually, is just the continual need to reapply drones, reapply drones, reapply drones, reapply drones. And so, to see a drone comp succeed there, again, that means that they were doing a good job with that. And as Biebs noted in the chat, the Stratios actually had a gun to...

03:31:15 Wenn die Drones erinnert, dann muss die Drones erinnert werden. Wenn die Drones erinnert, dann wird die Drones erinnert. So eine gute Entscheidung, um das High Slot für die Gun, um das High Slot für einen extra Energie Neutralizer zu halten, um die Drones zu halten.

03:31:34 And that is super handy, because as somebody who has done Triple D or Drone Bunny on TQ, honestly, getting them to move, just on TQ as it is, without the extra spacey, is a, you know, it's a thing. So adding in the extra spacey and where they get tired, taking that into account, they came prepared. Now,

03:32:02 If the match between Honkai Delta Force and Aggressively Midtier would have ended up in a tiebreaker. I saw it mentioned in chat. At that point that the clock hits zero, it goes to reverse tie-dye. If both time hits zero and points are equal, it goes reverse tie-dye for five minutes. They have five minutes to kill each other at that point.

03:32:33 So that is definitely something that they have to keep in mind that, hey... It speeds up, it doesn't slow down. So we'll see if it does happen, how many teams are used to playing in speed and reverse tie-dye. And... There we go. Alright, um, so...

03:33:02 Oh, goodness. So, Debs, that carries and supporting with mid slots? Tell me about it a little bit. Sure. So we saw with the Honkai team, they had a carries on their team. Both sides had carries, but one side was armor, one side was shield. And with armor, that gives you the opportunity to have mid slots that can support.

03:33:27 So what we saw there, if you were paying very close attention to the stream, you might have been able to see the effect from a couple of ships. Both the Stratios and the Magus were using remote sensor boosters on the carries to help it lock things further and faster, and also to prevent it from losing the damp war against the enemy carries. And we saw that happen there, where the Honkai team was able to keep its damps up.

03:33:55 der Enemy Carries war nicht zu dampen, sogar wenn es ein Lock ist, das sehr möglich ist. Das Sensor Boosters bedeutet, dass die Honkai Carries kann immer noch Lock Back sein. Und wenn es Puts Its Damps gibt, es gibt keine Spare Midslots für Recibos, um die Enemy Carries zu geben.

03:34:20 So we see just the absolute power of mid-slots and how important they are and why you often see armor just do better than shield, just because those mid-slots give you the ability to do things like lose the damp ore initially, but then promptly win it back. And it also gives them the power if they were facing a jam comp.

03:34:43 Their main DPS gets jammed. In this case, it's drones, so it wouldn't really apply. But in general, they could be putting those remote SIBOs on their Logi, making sure that their Logi doesn't get jammed, or preventing the Logi from getting damped as well. So having those spare mid slots, having those remote SIBOs, really, really important and gives the teams a lot of flexibility and allows them to win things that they otherwise might lose.

03:35:12 So, as chat is currently losing their mind over the fact that there is an orange cat spotted, Allie, can you give me a little bit of, how has the metagame evolved since the feeders, we went over it a little bit this last week, but we've had new games since then. Yeah, so...

03:35:32 It's really changed quite a lot, and we see this a lot in the Alliance Tournament as well as here, while the Gun Spam or Octo Comp is still one of the baseline comps to beat, and we're still seeing some variations of that. We're starting to see additional control and kite options as well as serious rush coming out from different teams. So in the control department, we've now seen a pretty wicked Scorpion Comp from

03:36:01 Welp Drive Active, that just did a very good job of, you know, it was a nail biter, but it did a very good job of getting through that match. We've seen some ships using, in particular, the Crucifier, very effective as that Ewer frigate. The Crucifier has been banned in a lot of matches. I think if it was getting banned less, it would be fielded more.

03:36:25 So even just slotting that Crucifier into your existing Gunspam setup is going to make it play in a more controlling fashion. We're seeing Drone Kite. Drone Kite wasn't here at all in the feeders. It was a comp that was part of the Tuskers winning run for Alliance Tournament. Well, that was less Drone Kite and more just all drones all the time. They kited, they brawled, they did all of the above. It was very well flown. We're seeing something like that here.

03:36:52 where you have a Dronekite that's been able to dismantle a couple of very scary looking teams coming at them. And finally, Rush. You might have counted it out after a very poor Feederswin record, but don't count it out. There can still be a Torp Raven at zero ready to yeet itself into your backline.

03:37:17 We kind of talked about it a little this week of the wheel and the wheel moving and developing and the meta just kind of rolling and changing as the game grows in this tournament format. So, I mean, honestly, I think it is something that teams should not count out. Now, this format is a little special. Tell me a little bit more, Allie. I know...

03:37:45 I know we've been talking a little bit, but do you mind just enlightening me one more time?

03:37:51 So the thing that this format has going for it that's unique compared to other tournament formats is instead of picking from a menu of ships and points, we are picking one ship per position. So you have position one, that's your battleship. Position two, your battlecruiser. Three, cruiser. Four, logistics. Five, destroyer. And six, frigate. So we're representing all of...

03:38:17 die major ship classes in EVE Online, sub-capital ship classes, combat-effective sub-capital ship classes,

03:38:26 The points you see on screen, all those points math, all of that is purely for tiebreak reasons. Adjudicating who wins the match. But all the battleships have the same point value. All the destroyers, et cetera, have the same point value. And you always have to have one of each. And that combined with the limited list of ships that are allowed, none of the navy battleships, none of the command ships, has really...

03:38:53 Brought some ships and some fits that we haven't seen in the Alliance Tournament to the fore in this. Yeah, and I'm really curious if we will see as we get into the last weekend what will happen. If we'll see anything huge brain. Because they've been cooking. They have been cooking this week. They've scrimmed. They've been cooking this weekend. And I'm wondering just what else.

03:39:21 Will come up. Debs. So, these next two teams. German Railgun Team versus Chief Kief Zionist Movement. There we go. Words. Their bans being Typhoon Sentinel and Hyena, respectively for the Germans. Chief Kief Zionist Movement banning the Crucifier, Arbitrator, and Sentinel. A double Sentinel ban.

03:39:49 Can you talk to me a little bit about these bans? Sure. So, once again, we're seeing Crucifier, Arbitrator, Sentinel. Please do not stop my guns from firing. I would really like to fire my guns. Or alternatively, I would really like my missiles to be able to apply. So, on the one side, let me fire my guns. I wish to shoot you. And on the other side, please don't cut away from us. Typhoon, Sentinel, Hyena.

03:40:16 The Hyena Typhoon, very key in kite comps. Hyena, a little bit in rush comps as well. But both of those are screaming, don't run away from us. We want to punch you in the face repeatedly. We don't want you getting out of our range.

03:40:31 Again, we see Rush is open. I don't believe either of these teams have brought a Rush before, and I don't think they fought one, though I could be wrong on that. So the options that we see are Control, Scorpion is open, Carries is open, Kitsune is open.

03:40:56 We've got all the control that you could want in the world, except for those rain, except for the TDs. And then you've got Raven open. You've got all the sort of drone comps open. But largely what we're seeing here is we'd really like to shoot our guns. Let us shoot our guns. And that says Octo on the one side. No Kite could mean Octo, could mean Rush, could mean something else. But I think we're definitely going to see an Octo from at least one team here.

03:41:24 I mean, so I... I don't know. I would like to see an actual... And I don't think if we've really seen one today. We've seen some good fights. But I would like to feel like it is a brawl. Like they are slugging it out. I think that would be absolutely just something special. Just to kind of end out day two. Or starting to round out day two. But...

03:41:54 We're not there yet! So, um, with these predictions, now that we know the bans, Allie, who are you throwing points on?

03:42:06 So, uh, I will, uh, yeah, so I'm probably gonna put my points on, uh, Magnet Shining Gschutz. I have fought against them a number of times. I think they're a great team. Uh, this is partly a, uh, you know, team, team shoutout type point situation. Uh, also they are the underdogs in Twitch chat, so maybe I can make some extra points. I believe in them.

03:42:31 I do see that they are currently, or as I saw jokingly in the chat, we could call them MSG technically as well. But I don't know if they'd like to be akin to a cooking ingredient. But, you know, we don't know. They could be cooking. They're at 34% with Chief Keep Science Movement being at 66%. Debs, before even we see that they hop in the arena, who are you putting your points on? Well,

03:43:00 Magnet has lost both times that they have fought Chief Keefe previously. So I am going to say that hopefully they have learned their lessons. They know how to fight this team. They know what's coming. They're going to bring something that Chief Keefe hasn't seen. And they're going to be able to pull a victory back. That's what I'm looking for here.

03:43:27 Hey, I definitely wish, as this is, uh, oop, let me, where did it go? Goodness.

03:43:40 Alright, so this is an elimination match. So this will be interesting. Whoever wins gets to continue on. Whoever loses gets to go home. But it does look like they have landed in the arena. And let's, for this nail biter, let's go ahead and pass it over Lemon and Mr. Overload.

03:44:11 Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen, to our first elimination match of the day. I am CSP Overload joined once again by Tathil Arsten for Magnetician Geschütz versus Chief Kief Zionist Movement. Do you know, one day we'll do a tournament where people have nice simple names like Team 14 or something like that. That'll be super pleasant. What do we have on grid with us today?

03:44:36 Es sieht sehr interessant. Das erste, was mir in die Augen ist, ist, dass das Tholos nicht auf 0 warp ist, wo der Schiff natürlich will, um die Schiff aufzunehmen, um die Schiff zu verabschieden. Es ist definitiv ein interessanter choice. Ich bin gespannt, aber es sieht etwas along die Linie von Apok zu werden, in der Rush-Style-Style-Style-Style-Style-Style-Style-Style-Style-Style-Style-Style-Style-Style-Style-Style-Style-Style-Style-Style-Style.

03:45:00 Ich weiß nicht, ob er sich auf die Epoch-Turne befindet. Weil wenn es nicht erwartet ist, wenn es nicht erwartet wird, wird es in. Das hat gesagt, der Executor... Wow, er ist ein Renegade. Okay, er stabilisiert. Er hat den Rett-Button geöffnet, er hat ihn geöffnet, er hat ihn geöffnet und er hat ihn geöffnet. Der Jamm ist auf die Navy Prophecy und der Phobos von der Ketsune, so es wird interessant sein, wenn er ihn alive ist. Das, ich denke, wird es auf die Frage, wer wer first trades. Ich weiß, das ist sehr klar.

03:45:27 But both these teams both I think have winning compositions here. So something is going to go wrong for one of the teams and then it's going to start to snowball.

03:45:37 Definitely. I mean, it kind of looks like the Abaddon is trying to force its way in somehow, but yeah, Fahin and the Phobos is doing a good job at trying to deny him that availability. Yeah, Abaddon is hick-pointed now, as is the Navy Prophecy, so they're in their final resting spots for the match. They're not going to get much else in terms of mobility if they don't get moved. Oh, no, I say that. He is...

03:46:00 He somehow broke free. Must have needed his reps. But Phobos wasn't even getting hit. Navy Mermadon kind of taking a bunch of damage right now. Again, this will go down to whoever makes a mistake first. Because we can see Young Renegade in the Executor is going to put his reps on this Navy Mermadon. I suspect he'll start to stabilize him. Meanwhile, the Augur of RawDogger93855 is repping his buddies as well.

03:46:25 The Tholos hat MJD'd. The Tholos, ladies and gentlemen, we have an MJD. The Tholos has MJD. Let's have a look, see where he is now. As expected. He's just going to dot all over the enemy team, just all over the place. Can't hold it back. Dotting left, right and center. But of course, he is getting shot straight into his Tholosi as he is going to go down extremely fast. Everything is on the Tholos now.

03:46:52 Es ist nur eine Frage, wie viele Spiele er hat mit dem Breacher-Pod. Das ist alles erinnert. Ja. Also, er hat die Apok, die ich glaube, ist der Key-Target hier. Er ist still alive. Er ist still daunt. Er ist still daunt. Er ist still daunt. Er ist noch stabilisiert, als der Raw-Dogger und der Augger ist getrennt weg. Kitsum-Pops. Dead. Tholos. Full-Armor.

03:47:20 We're still Tholas gaming, boys. The Augurer, though, Rawdogger, getting Rawdogged himself, as he's about to go down, the Tholas did not use Protection, and he has been podded. Down goes Rawdogger. He is...

03:47:36 Es ist eine Frage, wie lange Young Renegade kann, obwohl er hat einen guten Job in den letzten Matchen gemacht hat. Wow, was ein Repp er hat. Ja, ich denke, er ist... Ich denke, er ist noch nie. Ich denke, er ist noch nie. Er ist noch nie. Er ist noch nie. Er ist noch nie. Er ist noch nie. Er ist noch nie. Er ist noch nie. Er ist noch nie.

03:48:05 Was a survival expert, maybe, even. Yes, he's trained survival to level 6. So this is looking pretty strong right now for Magnitschi and Kschutz. They just need to keep it together and not screw the Pooch, because they are in a commanding position. They have the control. They have their Devoter alive. They have that Tholos just dotting all over the place. And this Prophecy Navy is kind of dying a little bit. Beans in the Prophecy Navy. Beans on toast.

03:48:32 Ich meine, sie hatten sehr gute Skins auf ihren Schiff, doch. Das war ein sehr guter Schiff. Es war ein sehr guter Effort.

03:48:41 The Prophet of the Navy looks like he is going to go down. He's kind of just sitting there right next to this Myrmidon. And of course, because the Tholos of Jalthy is still alive, the continuous pressure of that Tholos DPS is just split across the entire team. And with no reps now to bring it back other than any local reps they may have, there's really nothing they can do except let those Breacher Pods chew away their insides as the Prophet of the Navy goes through Hull. It truly is toasted beans right now.

03:49:08 und Apocalypse-Following. Das ist jetzt Mop-Up-Duty für Magnetischen Geschütz. Wir haben ein Poets- und Local-Droppingen uns.

03:49:19 What crazy poems about this victory that is coming down here. Yeah. The Team Ultra saying, please win the tournament so we can say we only lost three times to you. That's a stat right there. Imagine coming up against a team that you keep losing against to three times in the same tournament. Would have been fun if you won. Unfortunately, that's not the case. You, in fact, lost. Zakerius is going to go down. Magus is going to go down. This is game over for Chief Keef's Zionist movement. They've been downgraded. No longer Chief.

03:49:49 Oh, God, looking like he's trying to go for a boundary record here. No chance is he going to make a boundary record in Amagus. If he does, I'd doff my hat to him, but I don't think he's going to do it. Definitely. Let's see. He's heading towards the beacon. He is... Can he time it right? Okay, since you're in range. In range, go for it. I'm down a little bit.

03:50:13 Okay, this is now Spectator Sport. Oh god, we're all watching you. You better not fuck this up. He activates it. Probably could have activated it a little bit later, if he wanted to go for real range. But he is going to get out of the arena. Godspeed, sir. How far can he go? 191. Pretty respectable, all things considered. Allie, of course, claiming in chat, she made it 210 kilometers. Need to see receipts on that, I think.

03:50:42 190, final claim. Do you want to send this one back to the booth? What a pleasure. I mean, this boundary attempt by the Magus was rookie numbers, as some might say, compared to the rest. But back to the desk we throw it.

03:51:46 Ich habe F***ing Lader, Galente und Hermann, und ich habe einen extra Slot! Ich habe F***ing 6 Mids!

03:52:05 And with that, MSG is coming out with the win. Oh, you know, I wish I had put some points on them, but given I was... I didn't think, but hey, they pulled it out. I will say, though, the boundary record currently stands at 231.5 km.

03:52:34 Um, so we were not close to that, but it was a lovely, lovely demonstration. Um, so, oh goodness. Um.

03:52:50 Das Logi, das Shield. Debs, talk to me about kind of a little bit of all of this. Sure. So we saw the Logi positioning. Well, we saw a Logi doing a lot of work with positioning, is what I should say. We saw the executor for MSG moving in and out of range, pulling as far back as possible, going nearly to the boundary at least twice that I saw.

03:53:18 um within like 10-15 kilometers of it and then running back in to keep his armor tholos alive uh and that's something that the exec er unlike the auger can really pull off so i think that that's an excellent example of why you would go for an exact over an aug the exec has that flexibility to be able to run away uh pull out of range of the enemy team but then still turn around and burn

03:53:44 50-60 km back in range to put reps back on your relatively weak Armored Tholos and still managed to keep it alive. So that's some excellent Logi piloting there. We saw the flexibility of the Exec. We saw the advantage of having that speed. And we saw the Augur go down first. And if the Augur goes down, it can't rep anymore. So despite the fact that it has...

03:54:12 Theoretically, more rep power. If the Executor is alive sufficiently longer, and it doesn't take that long, and it's still putting out those reps, or even better, it's convincing the enemy team that it needs to be shot at, and they're wasting shots shooting this thing that they can't kill because it's running out of range. It's providing more effective EHP, even though that Augur has better tank on paper or better applied reps on paper.

03:54:40 So it just sounds like maybe they got slightly outflown, um, with some expert piloting on their behalf. Um, I will see, um, with the next match, we do have Grief Team Six versus Shrimps' Bugs. Somebody in chat asking, you want to know who the cat thinks will win? Um, me and the lovely Orange, who's...

03:55:06 He's right here. You guys can't necessarily see him, but he is here with us. We put our points on the shrimps with Shrimps as Bugs. I have been loving their memes, their meme games, their ads. It is insane. I have had wine come out of my nose because they're so funny. So, yes.

03:55:33 Fantastic. But Allie, I saw in chat, you're going with Shrimps. Debs, are you going Shrimps or are you going Grief Team 6? I have to respect the meme game. Shrimps it is.

03:55:49 Alright, so with that, with everybody on grid, on desk here, including the cat, we are all on Team Shrimps. With that, we go to Bans. There you go, Mr. Boy. The Bans, we come down to Grief Team 6, banning the Hyena, the Tholos, and Sentinel. Shrimps is Bugs, banning the Arbitrator, Sentinel, and Crucifier. A double Sentinel ban. Debs?

03:56:19 Alli, talk to me about this. So, once again, we have the, we would like to please shoot our ship, shoot our guns from, shoot your ships with our guns, from Shrimps' Bugs. Grief Team 6, meanwhile, possibly anticipating these bans, they have banned the Sentinel, which is arguably one of the most annoying Ewer frigates we've seen in this whole...

03:56:46 They banned the Tholos, incredibly powerful. We saw it do a lot of work in the last match, even though it was armor fit. And they banned the Hyena, likewise a very annoying, very threatening ship that can really aid a lot of projection comps and honestly help kites survive against rushes. So this could easily be a projection mirror. We're at that point in the tournament where teams that have...

03:57:11 Both of these teams have been scrimming for a while. Both of these teams could easily have some secret sauce hidden in the kitchen that they are going to bring out and cook for us here today.

03:57:24 Alright, and I saw ISD Kyra, you asked, is the Sentinel the most banned ship of this for today? It is most definitely a popular one, would I say it's the most banned? There are a handful that are on that list, including the Tholos. I would also say...

03:57:52 Just from a cursory look, Sentinel, though, seems to be banned almost at least once a match, if not more than once. So, with that, it does look like the teams have landed on the grid, so let's go ahead and send it over to the arena and get this fight started.

03:58:21 Will welcome you back into the arena. I'm going to be Tatsof, and I'm accompanied by Mr. Overload. And it looks like we have Abaddon into Hyperion. What are we thinking here, Mr. Overlord? I'm thinking all sorts of stuff. I'm primarily thinking about the fact that my cat just put her rear foot into my coffee and then got coffee everywhere, which I'm now cleaning up. But that can wait for spaceship explosions.

03:58:47 So Abaddon into Hyperion, that's an interesting one. The Hyperion, of course, a bit more mobile, a bit more local tank. Very hard to nute out, but Abaddon, of course, doesn't do nutes. But Abaddon does do a lot of DPS. It's a big brick, and it can project quite far based on the fact that they have Akaris and Akaris, Magus, Magus, Augur, Augur on both sides. This is almost exactly a mirror matchup with the only difference being that choice of Abaddon versus Hyperion. So I think we're going to see a nice... Let's not forget. That's rather significant.

03:59:16 Ich denke, wir werden sehen Resist Profiles hier, ist das wir sehen. True. Ich fühle mich, in der Ende, die Abaddon und Hyperion simplifieren. Die Abaddon wollen es etwas closer zu applyen, mehr Damage und zu braunen es, weil es mehr Damage gibt, weil es mehr Damage gibt, bei sehr close Ranges. Die Hyperion wird also kite. Ich fühle mich, es wird Abaddon approaching, Wex und Abaddon approaching.

03:59:40 Ja, of course, we saw in that previous match just nearly take the match in a Hyperion, but of course he fell at the last minute. And now he's going up against a Hyperion. This is an experienced set of pilots here on both sides. This is going to be a very good matchup. And crucially, this is an elimination matchup. So whoever loses here is going home. And in the infinite words of our dear host, gets to go home. That's right, you get your freedom back.

04:00:07 Wenn Sie gewinnen, dann, sorry, Ihr Service Continues.

04:00:13 Und mit dem Match geht's und Abaddon ist sofort auf den anderen Team, während Hyperion ist MJD'ing. Okay, MJD play, let's go, come on. I want to see some spectacular moves. But it looks like as if Grief Team has recognized this and they seem to be trying to commit down onto the Hyperion that is now isolated from his Logi. Another MJD looks like Tim Baron and the Navy Prophecy MJD'ing as well.

04:00:38 MJD-Zivers, es ist eine sehr mobile match. Again, as I mentioned, these are very experienced pilots. Both teams choosing to go for the Logi, which is both dying at the same time. So we could see a Logi trade and a DPS race at this point. Skyler Hawk and Jonas Astate, both about to hit Hull. Skyler, a little bit of an advantage.

04:01:01 Skylar ist ein MJD-Beacon auf der Seite der Arena und es sieht aus wie die andere Augur sind auch. Er ist auch die MJD-Beacon, und er ist auch die MJD-Beacon, und er ist auch die MJD-Beacon. Sie sind beide zu sterben, ich denke.

04:01:20 I wonder if all of this was just a disguise to force the Logis away so that they can focus on more priority targets. I mean, one of the keys of being a good tournament team is noticing when you can no longer hit and apply to the enemy logistic ship that has flown really far away and where the other ships are. So making that snap switch onto that carries is a good targeting call from the blue team, Shrimpt is bugged. Definitely, I mean...

04:01:46 Right now it's just a mirror match with one team not having a Karrison and Aug at this point. It's starting to go the way of Shrimps right now. Because that's now the Augur and the Karrison. Unless they kill this Augur of Yanis Oz very quickly, it's going to get out of hand and get away from them. And the damage is not applying. He is sitting really far away. He is turning and coming back in though. So he is going to be in range once again of that Abaddon. But it's just whether they can kill him before he gets into range and starts repping.

04:02:12 Das ist ein Problem.

04:02:38 Er ist mehr verletzt, so es ist immer noch so wie es in Control von Shrimps ist. Definitiv. So was passiert hier, wenn die Prophecy Navy und die Devosal sind? Ich denke, es wird nach Shrimps' Bugs sein. Ja, ich denke so. Ich glaube, ich denke, an die Idee. Also, mit der Beziehung, wenn sie diese Karriere aus den Matchen sind, dann wird es ein bisschen in Control wieder sein. Lohin die DPS von der Prophecy Navy ist ein Problem.

04:03:07 You can see the attack bar difference, though. Shrimps' bug does have less potential damage, so the Abaddon is still a significant chunk of DPS. It's probably where most of their DPS is coming from. Definitely, but that Devoter is kind of keeping him stuck in place. I mean, he's just preventing him from getting close, and I wonder how much they're going to be able to do if Jacob in the Prophecy dies, who is, I think, the main suspect of being able to clear the Devoter quickly off of the Abaddon. Yeah.

04:03:34 Ich denke, es ist ein Schnaubball für Grief Team Sex. Sie sind zu viele Schicks. Die Phobos ist schnell, schneller als die Voter. Die Voter geht runter, so die Kontrolle ist jetzt auf die Feld. Crucially, Grief Team Sex haben ihre Phobos, so sie haben Kontrolle. Das ist interessant. Ich denke, es ist nur eine Frage, wie fast die Abadon kann.

04:03:58 Ja, sie sind wirklich weit entfernt. Ist er direkt an die Hyperion? Ja, er ist er wirklich weit entfernt. Ist er direkt an die Hyperion? Ja, er ist er. Er ist er schnell an die Hyperion. Er ist schnell an die Hyperion in der Richtung. Aber es dauert ihn eine lange Zeit. Und natürlich... Hyperion ist auf einem MJD-Beacon, so ich denke, dass er die Abaddon getrennt hat. Although, bei der Leuchte, die Abaddon nicht hatte einen Scram, weil es nicht Scramm mit der Devoter ist. Ich denke, Hyperion ist einfach...

04:04:26 Once again, yes! My kingdom for a scram! Well, in this case, kingdom for a web last time. I hope he can, I don't know, should Magic want out of existence or something? Because that's terribly unfortunate for him. I think he's realizing, yeah, we're seeing GFs in local from the grief team. Sorry, yeah, from grief team 6. Oh, he's just kidding.

04:04:51 Getting hit for no reason. He's taking the beef out back there. Yeah, that's Magus, though. I mean, they're really kind of close. So, right, five minutes. Can the world's slowest ship, aka Nabadan, catch anything, like a Prof. Navy issue? If he kills this, Magus. Can he do it? Not at all. Probably not. The problem is that both of the Hyperion and the Prof. Navy are here on the MJD Beacon. I mean, they're very aware that they're just going to jump around and the Abaddon doesn't have a scram.

04:05:19 Or so we suspect. As soon as you MJD, there's always the chance that you just mess it up and jump out of the arena. Although that being said, that Abaddon is really getting chunked now. He's into range of presumably everything. He is repping. He's got a local rep on board. So if you look at the UI, you see the fence, the purple bits of the bar, that is active tank. So the blue bit is EHP, just raw HP, and then the purple bit is active tank.

04:05:46 So, both sides currently have ships running local active tanks. Presumably the Hyperion, makes sense, and the Abaddon, only ship. Definitely, it probably has a large Ancillary Armor Reaper on it, so... Just a question of how long that will let him endure, but I think it is kind of sealed here for Grieve Team. Sprims' bugs is going to take it, I think. Yeah. Yeah, poor Bruex in this case. Like I said, elimination match. Once again, he remains the sole battleship of his team, the only member left alive.

04:06:15 Ja, ich sehe die Original-Player-MGD zwei Ships.

04:06:43 Um, no, just great piloting all round. Well done, guys. Uh, shame that one of you's had to lose.

04:07:12 To the desk we go then.

04:07:15 Lemi W.I.S.K., of ISK, Shoga-Atsu & Carbon Attorneys, Gita44's premier litigation law firm. The time for being a victim?

04:07:44 It's over. We will ensure that you get the restitution you deserve. And those who wronged you are punished. Don't choose some pencil pushing paralegal F1 monkey. Choose a legal FC who will jump through gates for you. Choose quality. Choose ISK.

04:08:21 Und mit das, die Fans von Grief Team 6 sind grieven, als sie die L in die Charity Cup nehmen. Und man, das war ein sehr guter Match. So, Debs, das Piloten von der Prophecy Navy Issue, das war eine Chance!

04:08:49 Ja, wir sahen es versuchen, die Hyperion zu burnen. Denkst du, dass das nur was, dass es sich unter seinen Gunn ist. Hoping, dass wir vorher, ein Prophecy Navy get unter Hyperion, nicht able zu tracken, und das Prophecy Navy halten. Aber in diesem Fall, in der letzten Minute, die Prophecy Navy decided, eigentlich, ich will nicht da sein.

04:09:15 Possibly he was informed that the Hyperion actually has a web or a scram, didn't want to get in there, felt that, you know, there's a grapple this time, so I'm not going to be able to get under the guns, and then turned around at the last second. But unfortunately, at that point, the prophecy was just so committed that it was deep in the Hyperion's range. There was no room for it to...

04:09:37 Turn around and pull range at that point. And so we saw an aborted attempt at a plan just fall apart there and it was really unfortunate. I think if either you'd gone for it entirely or realizing earlier that that was not the play to make and bailing out would have definitely made a huge difference there in terms of how long that Prophecy Navy stayed alive and potentially changing the match.

04:10:05 I mean, we will never know as, you know, unless it's a mirror universe, I don't think we're going to see it here today. Allie, though, we did have the question last match kind of about the bans. Can you talk to me about the bans that have been common in the current meta and what we've been seeing so far in the tournament? Yeah, so we've gone and done the stats. The Sentinel is indeed the number one most banned ship at 99 bans.

04:10:34 The Carries is next up. Sentinel and Carries both fighting for the top number one most annoying Ewar Frigate for the types of comps that we are trying to bring in this format. The Carries, the Damp Suck, it's the best Damp Ship. Sentinel, we've seen those Guidance Disruptors and Tracking Disruptors be brutally effective in this format. Next up, there's a little block of Armageddon, Typhoon, and Tholos. The Armageddon and Typhoon are both...

04:11:01 Very uniquely powerful battleships. The Tholos, likewise, a uniquely powerful Destroyer. Each of those is a ship that can't be very well substituted by another one. After that, Crucifier and Arbitrator are the next two. And then it starts to fall off a bit from there. So we do see a lot of teams running this. No tracking disruption stat line. We see teams banning out ships that are hard to replace from comps in the tournament.

04:11:28 And then beyond that, it's just a little bit of, oh, maybe this is something that we've seen the other team bring. Maybe, you know, we could imagine someone banning out all the damps instead of all the weapon disruption. It's kind of a little bit falls off after that.

04:11:43 Ja, und, und, und, und, und, und, und.

04:12:11 Und dann von der anderen Seite.

04:12:41 Kind of, we see the Kitsune band. And then the Hyperion and the Hyena, both of which are interesting because the Hyperion, while strong, is certainly a ship that can largely be replaced by several other ships. It's a good ship in its role, but it's not unique in how well it does. So that's a very interesting choice of band, possibly targeted at a specific comp that they're...

04:13:09 Sie sehen es, Sie sehen es, Sie sehen es, Sie denken, die Hyperion ist key in das Komp. Und dann Hyena, wie wir schon gesagt haben, Kite und Rush both lieben es und sie wollen es nicht sehen.

04:13:21 We will see what happens in this next match quickly as teams are landing on field. Allie, who are you throwing your points on? It's a little bit tough for me. I'm probably going to throw my points on to evasive maneuvering, though. Both teams, strong tournament teams, but that's just kind of where my initial vibe goes.

04:13:45 I can agree. But with that, let's go ahead and throw it to the arena for what I believe is our penultimate match of the day.

04:14:02 Welcome back once again to the Arena with me, CCBOverload, and my good buddy, Tatlte Arsten. For this match, Neglect Emotionally in Red against Evasive Maneuvering. And boy, this looks like we could have a matchup here. Roke versus Raven. Tatlte, what do you think?

04:14:20 I feel like I've almost seen Roch versus Raven earlier with a different team. I don't know how that one matched up, although I believe this is a Torp Raven here. It is, so it's going to be a little bit different than the Cruz Raven that we saw earlier, but I'm as interested as you are to match underway now. And we see Fafi Wafi in the Onyx here, so we will find out once again if today is one of the days that you can indeed Fafi the Wafi or not. Both teams underway... Roch MJDing off the bat!

04:14:49 Oh, MJDs galore. Let's go. We're all MJDs all the time now, but MJDing on top of Torpedo Raven may not be the best strategy for survival, but we'll see. No, he jumped away. Raptor's a unique ship too here. Using Raptor for tackle. Did he mean to jump that far out of the way by himself? Did he bounce the wrong direction? Or was that intentional? I don't think so. I think he is coming to hug this MJD beacon because that gives him a lot of survivability.

04:15:16 The only thing is, the Raptor can heat to 8km per second, and with the MJD beacons in this tournament, they're unaffected by skill, so they're a flat 12-second cool-up. So the Raptor can definitely come and tackle him, even if he's across the arena, if he's trying to jump out. So I think it's definitely a little bit stressful for him. Mr. Keps and the Osprey, but the DPS in that Ferex Naviance, this is why he gets far, far, far away from a torpedo raven. They just vomit DPS all over the place. In this case, I thought it is.

04:15:46 Okay, so interesting trade for an Osprey. But if this is a Torpedo Raven, which of course it is, and that rock stays away from it, then it should be able to survive and keep applying. However, Osprey, Tugin, webbed, scrammed, painted. He just needs to get away from it. Everyone needs to get away from the Torpedo Raven. Pay attention. If you see a Torpedo Raven coming towards you, just...

04:16:13 Go the other way. Just go away. Leave it alone. By the looks of it, the Tholos hasn't managed to land Breachers on anybody other than the Osprey. I don't see any ticking damage on the Rock Phantasm Jackdaw or Carries, which is... Yeah, he's probably holding it back in reserve so that he doesn't just get yeeted as soon as he goes in. The Raptor is going down. He's getting hit pretty hard, but they're going to trade a Raptor for an Osprey. Wow, Osprey, holy! Honestly, good trade if he finish off this Raptor, because that is one of the tackle things they need. This Raven needs to be able to get on top of things.

04:16:42 So if this... It looks like it's escaped. He has for now, but all it takes is someone to look at him the wrong way, or a strong gust of space wind, and he's done for. But the lack of logic is going to make it hard for him to re-change shield, and he is gambling on the edge of being in the arena there. Holy. Yeah, I mean, he's still got a 10k difference, and these are experienced pilots, so I think he'll be okay. But the Tholos is about to go down, and I don't know if he dotted anyone. I think he is still holding all of his dots. So Tholos...

04:17:10 Okay, so we're still pretty even. Blue Team Evasive Meneuvering is still up on points right now, but if that Raven gets anywhere near anything in the other team, then that other team will just start to lose ships. That being said, they've got the Onix and they've got the Raptor. That Raptor, though, is not going to be much use now because he's going to die very, very quickly if he comes within range. So it's really down to the Onix, who is being damped by the carries.

04:17:37 Ich denke, dass sie einfach nicht aufhörbar sind. Sie sind einfach nicht aufhörbar. Sie sind einfach nicht aufhörbar. Sie sind einfach nicht aufhörbar. Sie sind einfach nicht aufhörbar. Aber sie sind einfach nicht aufhörbar. Sie sind einfach nicht aufhörbar. Aber sie sind einfach nicht aufhörbar. Sie sind einfach nicht aufhörbar. Sie sind einfach aufhörbar.

04:18:01 um as soon as possible and get away because the longer he is webbed the more time that raven will have to come towards him that being said scakula russian in the cyclone feet going down

04:18:13 Oh ja, Raptor is... The thing is, though, he can 100% stay alive under the guns of a Roke, if he gets on top of him. Definitely. I don't think there's much that can hit him at that point. It's just the Jackdaw, though. The Jackdaw looks in the wrong way. He will shoot very heavy volleys. Yes, and Phantasm is about to go down. There he goes. Okay, so that was the torpedoes. So, Mr. Jackdaw, listen to me. You need to kill this Raptor.

04:18:42 Before he gets on top of your Roke. That's kind of their win condition now. The Kerries and the Jackdaw have to just keep the Roke free. If they don't, and from two ships, pay attention, there's two ships, Raptor and Onix. Both of them need to be kept damped and away from that Roke. Because if Pandey gets anywhere near the Roke, it's GG. Like, that's it. The Roke will be stopped. By the looks of it, he is. The Roke is now getting torpedoed. Ravens is MJDing.

04:19:10 Where is he going to land? He's very close. Raven is... Is Raven MJDing? Raven has already MJDed. We're past tense now. But the Rokas MJDed as well. Here we go. Game's still on. Rokas escaped the clutches of the Raven. He came hovering by with his big torpedo fingers and said, let me touch you. But unfortunately, that Rokas was ready to pounce and he jumped away. So he's going to be heading towards another MJD beacon now. That Raptor is taking some more damage again.

04:19:36 Jackdaw ist volleys after the raptor. Ja. Ja, ich meine, das zwei Schiff haben zwei Schiff, das ist schwierig, und die Raven. So, wenn sie einen von ihnen killen, die raptor, in fact, Jackdaw, in ein paar Kilometres von range, kann man ihn in ein paar, wie ein Volley.

04:19:56 Ich glaube, er hat sich die Räven mit den Räven geführt, mit dem Räven. Ich glaube, dass er die Räven mit dem Räven ist. Ich glaube, dass er die Räven mit dem Räven geht. Ich glaube, dass er die Räven mit dem Räven geht. Ich glaube, dass er die Räven mit dem Räven geht. Das wird es für den Räven mit dem Räven geht. Aber ein Railroak kann sehr weit, viel weiter als du, Pandy, mit dem Räven. So er wird zu stoppen.

04:20:21 his big behoose, and then turn around and try and MGD somewhere else. But I don't think he's going to have time to do it, unfortunately for him. It looks like he's already in the hall by the jackdaw. Jackdaw does have a paint indeed.

04:20:35 Ich denke, das ist es. Ich denke, ihr werdet zu sehen, der Torpedo Raven, der Infamist Torpedo Raven, um zu der Rock zu gehen. Aber das Rock ist still kind of dying. Ich weiß nicht. Was ist passiert? Warum hat der Räupt die Räupt? Ich weiß, dass der Räupt die Räupt ist. Ich weiß, dass der Räupt die Räupt ist. Ich weiß, dass der Räupt die Räupt ist. Warum hat der Räupt die Räupt die Räupt?

04:21:02 He's been killed by Faffy Waffy in the Onyx.

04:21:07 Was ist der Reload? Der Reload ist jetzt mit Pandy. Und ich denke, die Roke kam in für ein High Damage Amulet. Der Roke kam aus dem Reload. Aber jetzt ist er schrämt von der Onix. So es ist jetzt ein Fall, ob kann er genug Damage geben in Pandy als er approaches mit dem Turpedal Raven, bevor er kommt da? Weil wenn er das Turpedal Raven kommt, dann ist er going to die. Der Roke ist definitiv in die Position für ein Move.

04:21:35 Ich weiß nicht, was range he is mit Javelins ist, aber er wird nur 40 Kilometer entfernt. Und die Sache ist, als er in die Range geht, er wird auch in die Dammt für den Rok. So es ist wirklich, wirklich close. Der Jackdaw ist die zu etwas, wahrscheinlich Drones, ich denke. Aber das Raven war ein bisschen zu slow in der MGD. Oh, der Charakter ist die Raven jetzt.

04:21:57 Das ist ein guter Weg. Das ist ein guter Weg. Das ist ein guter Weg. Ja, das ist ein Suicide in der Karriere. Ihr gewinn ist, dass es den Raven aus dem Röke geht. Und ich denke, er wird wieder runter. Ich denke, Tandy hat ein paar mehr Raps left in ihm. Der Jackdaw ist ja auch. Aber da geht es. Der Raven ist runter. Wow. Wow.

04:22:15 If you're interested in tournaments, ladies and gentlemen, I recommend you go back and watch this match. Watch the positioning, watch the moves, watch what these pilots were doing, because that was some excellent piloting by almost every single person of both of those teams there. I wonder if they can actually have it. If this Onyx can kill the Rock in time and stay under its guns, which looks like it's doing a good job, then I don't think that the Jackdaw has it in him to kill the thing in time, and especially with the Raptor there. He's going to have to make a choice. Does he want the Raptor dead?

04:22:43 The Jacks have to stay untackled. And we get a second hero reload off? I don't know. Maybe. Everyone is dying. Someone needs to not die to win the game. This is how this game works. The Roke of Hui Kante, though, into Hull. He is boosting again, though. Is he boosting on Cap? He's boosting. I think he might have got a reload off. I think he might have done it the second time in this match. A hero reload. Look at this. He is going back up. Repping a big amount.

04:23:11 Das Jackdash hat ihn zu versuchen, um ihn zu holen, und er hat ihn zu holen. Wenn sie das Rock nicht verlieren, dann sie gewinnen. 100 Prozent. Aber es gibt keine Rechte von den Rocken. Ich glaube, es war Kap-Boost, vielleicht. Ich dachte, es war ein Reload-Off, aber er ist nicht Firing-Agen, das bedeutet, dass er wieder geht. Ich glaube, er hat er versucht, Kap-Boost zu holen. Aber er ist in Hull. Es ist eine Minute left.

04:23:36 Fafi Wafi is now dying. Everyone is just dying left, right and center. I don't know who to look at. Fafi Wafi is dying slightly faster, but he is also smaller. The Roke is in... Fafi Wafi has an XLSB, I think, that still has charges, which is why he's able to do these massive reps, such as right now. Rensi D's Instructor remaining in the Roke. Are we going to see another boost? 45 seconds. A couple of boosts will save him. I don't think he's going to be able to do it. I think he's going to go down. And he dies? And I think with that, it's... What the heck? I think...

04:24:04 Evasive is going to pull it off, I think. Yeah, Evasive Maneuvering. Literally pulling it out. Clutch at the last possible minute. Fafi status unwaffied in this instance. Pulling out the win.

04:24:18 If the Raptor dies, they still lose. It is 17 seconds. I don't think the Raptor is going to die. Unless that Jackdaw is just an absolute hero. Keep in mind, Jackdaw doesn't shoot fast missiles, so the Raptor can outburn them after a certain range, which is what I think he's trying to do here. It's close, but I don't think it's close enough.

04:24:38 20 Sekunden langer! Ja, 20 Sekunden langer. Der Raptor ist dead. Aber das ist es. Match over. Wow, wir haben uns blessed mit einen Excitementen Matches gemacht. Invasive Maneuvering, taking that hard-fought W, placing it firmly in der Pocket, and sending Neglect Emotionally back to the Therapists. Wow. Let's send that one over to the booth to Unpack.

04:25:50 Ich habe F***ing Lader, Galente und Hermann, und ich habe einen extra Slot! Ich habe F***ing 6!

04:26:12 And with that, what we in the back are calling the match of the tournament so far. Wow, that was a close one. Debs, these XL ancillary charges that they were relying on heavily, talk to me about these with the ships that they were using.

04:26:39 Sure, so we saw several things happening there. With XLASBs, you've got a limited number of charges that are based off the cap boosters that are in there. It doesn't actually cost any cap. The cap boosters fuel the shield booster completely on their own. But that means that when those run out, you've got a very long reload time where you're not getting any boosts on. You can run it off cap yourself, but it takes an incredible amount of cap to run, and especially on something like in Onyx.

04:27:08 you would be using almost all of your catpool to get a single charge off. So you kind of get one extra one, maybe two on a battleship. You've got a cat booster probably, which means you can potentially run it just a little bit longer, but still not very long. And we saw those long reloads where the Raven was just taking damage. It's just slowly dying or even quickly dying. But the last second...

04:27:34 It gets its reload off, and it lives just a little bit longer, not quite long enough to really do damage, but long enough that the Roke had to shoot it and not the Onix, giving the Onix the time that it needed to just keep putting damage on the Roke and take it out. And we saw the Roke run out of charges, try to get maybe some boosts off on Capacitor alone, and then go out. So those XLASBs are time-limited, and that's really important.

04:28:02 And how they're used shows who wins at this point, because they are an important resource to keep in mind. With that, we have Aggressively Mid-Tier and Blahajidin Freedom Fighters up next. As our last match of the day, Aggressively Mid-Tier banning the Arbitrator, Sentinel, and Crucifier. Blahajidin Freedom Fighters, wow, words, the Roke.

04:28:30 Jackdaw and Ashimu. Ellie, real quick, talk to me about these bans. So in the shortest number of words possible, once again, we have the Please Don't Track and Disrupt Me versus the Roke, very good projection ship, the Jackdaw, very good kite ship, and the Ashima, which is an interesting choice for web ship to remove. They're probably reacting to something they've seen in scrims or something they've seen from aggressively mid-tier before.

04:28:58 So, uh, just a little fun fact as well, uh, quickly before we throw it to the arena, uh, goons have not made it to any finals since AG2. Uh, and while Lahajidin Freedom Fighters is not goons goons, they used to be goons goons. Oh, apparently the, uh, you are wrong. Oops. So, so anyway.

04:29:23 But let's go ahead and throw it to the match while they correct themselves. And we'll see who wins. But my points are on the Sharks. Let's go, Arena.

04:29:36 Willkommen zurück in die Arena für den finalen Match des Jahres. Ich hoffe, dass ich mich mit Mr. Overload haben. Willkommen zu diesen Teams sprechen. Was sind sie hier? Wir haben Ravens und Typhoons, und die Raven ist auf 0. Also, das ist 50-50. Es ist either Crews oder Torpedos. Das ist ein Analytical Insight. Aber based auf die Frage, dass sie einen Ramjag haben, ich denke...

04:30:00 They are, in fact, Torpedoes. So we'll see what happens. Can they kill this Jagerov pretty fast? Which is kind of what they have to do, I think. I think they're going to do that. Definitely, I think. Hakun here is Rapid Heavy, which means he is Clip-based, but he has incredibly well-applied heavy burst damage whilst he has Clip-up. Yeah, so this is, again, let me remind you, an elimination match. So both these teams fighting for their right to go home at the end of this match. Good...

04:30:27 Osprey piled in there by Mini Skrow to keep his Ram Jag alive. Meanwhile, it looks like it's the Onyx on the aggressive mid tier side that's taking the most amount of damage. He has painted, he's got his, he's hick pointed as well. Doesn't have his hick point up right now, so he can receive reps. Yep, but Mini Skrow is taking some hits there in the Osprey, so I wonder how much, if he has any Ansel tank. By the looks of it, he probably has an Ansel repper here. Oh, Onyx just got, holy!

04:30:55 In a single shot. I think I would trade my Onix right now for an Osprey, to be honest, because that Osprey is webbed, he's not moving, he's in 62, he's on his boost, as the Destas talked about, those XLASP. Both of these teams are going to be XLASPing right now. And both decided, you know what, that's enough shooting, everyone stop, stop, we've had fun, time to go home, because damage has just dropped off. Yeah, I mean, it looks like the Osprey has managed to pull his...

04:31:23 Ich glaube, es ist ein Chunky-Bit-Behind. Wow, Onyx dies, though. Das ist, ich glaube, definitiv, in favor of Bahad-Jadeen. Ja, der Key Punkt über die Trade ist, ist, dass du noch etwas in return hast, und in diesem Fall, sie haben nicht den Onyx geholfen, sie haben nur den Onyx geholfen. Der Osprey ist noch sehr viel alive. Der Osprey ist noch nicht able zu re-Load Anselm, denn er war nicht weit genug, so er ist still... Die Anselm-Charge ist er, und da er fällt. Der Anselm-Charge ist er, die Anselm-Charge ist er, sind noch sehr effektiv.

04:31:48 Ja, das ist wahrscheinlich ein Rapid Heavy Typhoon, und er hat einen RELOAD briefly, und dann hat das Osprey auf den RELOAD. Aber er wurde way zu nahe. Way zu nahe Torpedo Raven, Kahn. Das ist nicht wo du willst. Note, Exhibit 1, der Torpedo ist jetzt in deinem face, als du die. Das ist der Ende. Definitiv kann Passo Falls jetzt.

04:32:13 It doesn't look like Tholo's managed to hit anybody, off of the fact that nobody's taking damage over the current moment. So I wonder how much utility he was able to bring, but as long as he was able to hit the Typhoon, which is probably the main goal here, then he has managed to carry his weight. Yeah, so the BFFs need to keep their Jag alive, I think, because we saw what happened in the last match with a Torpedo Raven just kind of slowly getting kited, and they just barely squeaked it out by the...

04:32:40 Die Haare ist auf der Ballsack, aber dieses Jahrgüter ist die wichtigste Sache, die sie brauchen. Der Jahrgüter hat eine Reaktionung auf dem, das ist sehr großartig, weil es sehr großartig ist, weil es die Schild-Reaktion auf dem, was er braucht, weil es so großartig ist, weil es so großartig ist, weil es so großartig ist, weil es so großartig ist, und jetzt mit dem Heavy-Set, mit dem 2nd Set auf dem. Ja, das ist so großartig.

04:33:08 I think at some point he's going to have to make a lunch to get Tackle on something. Although the Raven right now is able to hit the Cyclone Fleet by the looks of it. That's the thing, they don't need to. They're up on points. In the last match, the Torpedo Raven team was down on points and had to chase around and catch things. The VFF, they don't have to do anything. They could just sit back and not die for another 60 minutes and 18 seconds, which would be not the most exciting match.

04:33:35 But it would get them the W. And at the end of the day, that's what we're all here for. Definitely. And I mean, as long as they're able to hog potentially an MJD beacon, they're able to maneuver around and to get to where they need to. Yeah, let's take a look. Where are you heading, Mr. Cyclone Fleet Issue? You're taking a lot of damage. Nope, you're not heading towards the beacon. You're chasing down another Cyclone Fleet Issue. So both Cyclones, just nowhere near Beacons, just chasing each other down.

04:34:00 Die Blue Team, BFFs, nicht mehr zu verlieren der Fleet Cycline. Er könnte einfach nur die anderen alleine sein und gehen nach Hause. Es sieht aus wie Aggressively Mid-Tier Rotan ist mehr als Kaldari-Daddy. Ich denke, sie versuchen für die Good Trade zu gehen.

04:34:19 Ich denke so. Aber das fragt sich die Frage, warum ist Kaldari-Daddy nicht auf den MJD-Beacon? Okay, er hat sich jetzt aufhören, glaube ich. Er ist noch nicht aufhören. Er ist noch nicht aufhören. Er ist noch nicht aufhören. Ich denke, sie werden Rotom bekommen, so ich denke, es wird ein erfolgreiches Trade für sie hier sein. Ja. Sie werden den Osprey kommen in close, so ich weiß nicht, ob sie werden hier machen.

04:34:42 I wonder what the Jag is doing. He does not look like he's trying to make a lunch here. He does have rep bots on him, but he doesn't really need him. So I wonder if those could be better used elsewhere, potentially on their... Yeah, he's just staying right now. ...Styfi, which needs the reps. Also, this is questionable decision-making. Okay, finally he has turned and is heading towards the MJD beacon. Finally. Because what they were attempting to do there is snatch defeat from the Jaws of Victory. Like, they had everything they needed to not die.

04:35:06 And they were ignoring that and attempting to die instead. And now look, Kaldari Daddy is in low shield. Presumably he's out of reps. He doesn't have any logic. These opponents do still have their Osprey. And yet somehow he spent most of his time chasing around Rotan in his fleet cyclone. And what did it get to him? Nothing. So he should have been here the whole time on this beacon, get ready to GTFO. This is bad execution in this instance by the BFFs.

04:35:33 I wonder if they're able to recover here. It looks like Kaldari Daddy has gotten some Reptrons on him. He's going to let him repair his shield. Oh my god, he's MVDing after the other Fleet Cyclone. What are you doing? You're doing the wrong thing. Go the other way. I wonder if they're trying to switch to the Osprey at a point if he messes up here. They don't kill this. Okay, the Raven's on top of him. Fine, I'll allow it in this instance, Kaldari Daddy.

04:36:01 Du musst es jetzt. Du hast einen Ravenen auf der Seite. Er wollte es da sein, um den Killnail zu sein. Definitiv. Okay, so they're gonna kill it. Okay. Aber er ist still dying, ich will pointe das aus. Kaldari-Daddy ist still dying. Das ist true, aber wenn sie die Cyclone-Fleet haben, dann gibt's nicht viel mehr zu tun, dass Kaldari-Daddy nicht mehr zu tun. No, sie sollten gewinnen. Das ist ziemlich easy. Ein M.J.D. ist er. Ist er zu gehen? Mal schauen.

04:36:31 Jaag ist jetzt da. Jaag ist jetzt da. Jaag ist jetzt da. Jaag ist jetzt da. Jaag ist jetzt da. Jaag ist jetzt da. Jaag ist jetzt da. Jaag ist jetzt da. Jaag ist jetzt da. Ich weiß, dass sie gewinnen sind. Ich weiß, dass sie gewinnen sind. Aber da gibt es nicht die Killmails. Sie sind auf Thunderdome. Jeder weiß, dass sie ein tolles Job haben. Du musst nicht in da gehen und riskieren.

04:36:54 This will not contribute to some Z-Kill padding, as Khadarai might be attempting to get here with jumping in on all these Killmills. The GFs coming in local now. I mean, all the DPSs off the field, quite literally, if you look at the attack bar for Aggressivate Mid-Tier, there is zero. So the Stork and Hain have nothing. Damage drones. Yep, there's absolutely nothing. So the game is categorically over unless... At this point, Mid-Tier might just be trying to bargain for a free deal here at best.

04:37:24 Ja, ich denke, ich will, dass sie die meisten, wenn sie für eine lange M.J.D. spielen, sehen, ob sie aus der Arena gehen können.

04:37:33 Und dann können wir nach Hause gehen. Ich bin der Baden und Local suggestiert sie sich werfen kann. Von der Mitte mit MGD. Ja, das ist die Spiel. So das war eine interessante Match-Up. Ich habe eine Frage. Ich habe eine Frage. Ich habe eine Frage. Ich habe eine Frage. Ich habe eine Frage. Ich habe eine Frage. Ich habe eine Frage. Ich habe eine Frage. Ich habe eine Frage. Ich habe eine Frage. Ich habe eine Frage.

04:37:59 Ich habe mich sehr gegründet, wenn sie ihre Lead-A-Round ein bisschen aggressiv gegen die andere Team hatten, die noch ihre Osprey hatte, also sie könnten eine Ship- oder zwei haben. Und wenn sie das Fleet-Cyclon verloren haben, dann würde sie in eine ziemlich dicke Situation haben. Das hat gesagt, mehr Skulls für die Skull-Throne, so sie haben noch mehr Kills. Und ich kann nicht wirklich sagen, über das.

04:38:23 Ja, ich bin klar, die match ist basically categorisch over. Es ist quasi quasi über. Es ist quasi nichts möglich wäre für BFFs an dieser Stelle. Aber du hast die Parade rund um die Arena, wie die Rest of Us,

04:38:52 Arkiri and Iskander prove that they are the best of the aggressively mid-tier people because they are still alive and the other ones are not.

04:39:05 Definitely. I mean, what much more is there left for them to do? Nothing left for them to do. They are burning towards the arena boundary. Nope, they're turning. So they've got their 15 minutes of fame. We're going to sit and look at them. And then we can see them for another 28 seconds. So how have you enjoyed? The last match was amazing, right? Neglect emotionally versus evasive maneuvering. Best match of the day for me. What about you?

04:39:34 I definitely do have to agree. That was such a back and forth match where even the ship trades and I feel like it alternated on who I would have placed my money to win. So I think it was definitely a good fun game that kept us in our seats the whole way through. Five seconds left for this game. It is basically wrapped up now. I'd love to go back and watch that last match at least once more as I've never seen before. This one was great. It had its moments but it was over a while ago. So with that...

04:40:01 I've been CSP Overload, I've been joined by Tatold Arsten, and we'll send it for the last time back to the desk. What a pleasure it has been to commentate.
