ALGS Year 5 Split 1 Pro League Match Day 8: Einführung und Team-Updates
00:05:49
00:05:49 Mein Name ist Dia, und wir beginnen mit Match Day Nummer 8. Das ist ein spannender Tag, denn wir sind am Ende des Spiels, und ich würde es nicht wollen, dass ich es alleine nicht. In fact, ich würde es gerne mit meinen besten Freunden auf dem Broadcast haben. So, wir haben in Graceful und Genome für heute. Genome ist es von, ich glaube, Krypto's Lair, und Graceful, von der Herkunft von seinem eigenen Haus. Wie sind Sie, Graceful?
00:06:15 I'm doing fine, thank you. Home and comfy like always now, so we're ready to pop off. And Genome, you're looking calm, cool, and collected, but I know that things have been crazy over in Apex South as you approach the end of the season yourself. Absolutely. I mean, you know, plenty of roster changes over there, some amazing clutches we saw earlier today from Gen.G, and yeah, honestly, just more great Apex. You know, I was saying to Genome...
00:06:43 ... ... ... ... ...
00:06:58 Wir sehen uns auf die 20 Teams, die wir heute spielen haben.
00:07:27 We'll touch on those in a second.
00:07:54 The overall scoreboards for right now, though, are where everyone's mind is at. Notice the cutoff right now is Reply Totem at 20th for the teams that will make it into the Regional Finals. Alliance currently lead and Grateful. Now that Na'Vi are playing today, they've got a chance, maybe a little bit of breathing room, to try and overtake Alliance. Now is definitely the time to overtake if they do, because if you're not playing at the same time, that means you have a lot more leeway to make plays.
00:08:21 Everybody else, however, on this overall scoreboard is now fighting to make it back up to the top because it is quite top-heavy right now. You know, looking at the way that Na'Vi is, I know that I'm focusing on their race to beat Alliance, but looking at the overall standings, their race is basically done. They know that they're going to mid-season playoffs just like Alliance, and looking a little bit further down, that's where you really see the pressure start to dial in. That number 88.
00:08:50 Das war's für heute.
00:09:18 Denn in der Regular-Saison werden die Mehrwerten gewonnen werden. Die werden dann auf der anderen Seite geöffnet werden. Wenn du auf der anderen Seite geöffnet hast, dann werden 25 Punkte geöffnet werden. In der Region Finals werden die 35 Punkte geöffnet werden. Ihr könnt die Liste und die Nummern sehen, aber das ist eine große Veränderung, und ich würde sagen, es ist ein Veränderung für die bessere.
00:09:46 I think it's a change for the better, absolutely. Regional Finals is the most hotly contested lobby of the entire Pro League split. So it makes sense that we award more points to it throughout the Pro League split, right?
00:10:02 I think it's a perfect one-to-one comparison there. So yeah, really good change, I think, from the ALGS team. And it just means that coming down to this pointy end of the season, all of a sudden it opens things up a little bit for those types of teams who do well in those kind of lobbies. Because some teams, you know, they're better fragging out during the season and others are better when things really tighten up.
00:10:30 And right now, things are certainly getting quite tight. We did mention the roster shuffles earlier, and I want to dive right into those because, again, it's important that you be able to keep track of whose team is doing what. So, in terms of our orgs, the names that have changed in the big overall scheme of things, some of you sharper viewers may have caught that Forbidden changed their name to Maus.
00:10:50 An hour before last week's broadcast, but this time we've actually got them. So Maus is going to be tracked as Forbidden throughout the day. And again, congratulations to the Forbidden roster. Shalala have changed to Dragons, so a little bit less fun to say, but maybe a little bit more epic and graceful. What kinds of player shuffles are we looking at? I mean, when you're speaking about Ors, you can't forget to speak about the roster changes. Taxington reuniting with Cap again is something, you know, a lot of people have been wondering about.
00:11:19 schp2 losing knight into ronin gaining him as 10k picks up nasky it's all changes that have been the hot topic as of the last couple of days as people are picking up their popcorns either preying on the downfall or sharing for your favorite player right now which whichever side you're going it's going to be a good time today yeah we are we are getting some really wild shuffles and i want to take us through a specific story for those of you who may not have been monitoring
00:11:47 ... ... ...
00:12:08 Und Gdolph ist eine Erfahrung, eine gewöhnliche Qualität, wenn es um Apex Legends zu spielen. Und das ist, auf jeden Fall, eine sehr gute Bewegung. Sie spielen all das letzte Woche zusammen, und Nasky, all of a sudden, wird es von Ronin verabschiedet. Das war ein sehr Unexpecteder Bewegung, und eine ich hoffe, dass wir die Chance noch ein bisschen weiterentwickeln haben, aber mit Nasky's removal von der Röster, all of a sudden, du hast eine Top IGL von EMEA, und...
00:12:36 Das war etwas, was vielleicht ein bisschen odd. Es wurde von Ronin veröffentlicht, mit ihrem IGL shift über Nate. Und ich sage Ihnen, ich freue mich zu sehen, wie sie heute machen, weil die Roste definitiv hat viele große Schöne zu erfüllen, zumindest in der Meinung von dieser Kommentator. Nun, Nasky hat sich getroffen, und das ist jetzt, wo es wirklich sehr spicy ist, weil es plötzlich...
00:13:02 Kashera und Postkill, die sich ein bisschen anzusehen mit dem, was in der letzten Woche nicht gefunden hat, vielleicht nicht zu finden, dass sie auf 10k gewonnen haben. Sie wissen was, wir nehmen Natsky, wir sehen was zwei IGLs sind zusammen. Und jetzt ist das eine große Frage, weil Natsky war nur bereit, um das Lack-IGL-Roll. Geedolf hat, zu seinem Kredit, um ein bisschen klar zu machen, was mit ihm und Kashera passiert, und sogar Post.
00:13:31 Das war ja, das war nicht eine komplett eine Einzündung. Gdolph hatte eigentlich ein paar Probleme mit dem Team, mit dem IGL-ing war, und wollte zurückkehren. Das ist, glaube ich, understandable und, für meine Rolle, ziemlich mature und gracevoll, wenn wir denken, wie diese beiden...
00:13:53 IGLs manage their conflict. It seems like a peaceful parting of ways. Now Nasky is being brought in, so it's certainly a team for me to watch. But Graceful, who is your team to watch? I mean, I think everybody likes the Hot Topics of my team to watch will be Ronin for sure. I think that a lot of people are, like I said, they're, you know, whether they be hatewatching, whether they be cheering for them or not, it's always fun to watch Hot Topics because EMEA actually kind of lackluster in...
00:14:21 In random discussions and people not agreeing on stuff. I feel like we're kind of mild. So now we got a little bit of popcorn as well and that's a great thing to have. You know, on the roster topic itself, MG Clutch Hoodie have been performing really strongly. Like I think everybody reckons when you fight with them that they can shoot their guns really hardly. Now if people are expecting to see the changes that they are assuming they will have by swapping out Nasty, they said that they're looking very promising and they're happy. People are...
00:14:50 Ja, look, I've been looking into Aurora.
00:15:17 This is obviously a team who's just made a big roster change. Nine Imps and Oirein had been together for a very long time. They switched out Oirein for excuse. And it's been a big shift to them as well in their playstyle, right? They were playing this hyper edge playstyle and it's really been nerfed. The fact that they can't just run around and get red armors on the outskirts of the map anymore unless they just happen to come across a mythic bin really means they can't bully teams like they used to be able to.
00:15:46 So, while they're used to taking these isolated fights on the outskirts of the matches, when it gets to the endgames, it's a completely different ballgame, right? You're taking multi-team engagements. It's not just about your straight-up fighting skills anymore. You really need to be able to think your way out of a lot of solutions. And they need to learn how to manipulate other teams better, to be honest. They need to stop looking to take fights straight up and use the other...
00:16:16 Ich glaube, es ist auch der Weapons zu verändern. Sie haben auch, ich denke, auch, ich denke, müssen ihre Compositions ändern ein bisschen. Sie sind die Most-Played-Legends, Banging Wraith. Ich glaube, es wird ein Asch in der Zeit, ein Catalyst, ein Ballistik, ein Alter, ein Pathfinder, etwas zu helfen, diese Team als eine Aggressive Team, wie sie in den letzten Jahren haben.
00:16:37 They haven't won a match yet this season. Their highest is second. We've seen it across four or five matches, actually, and they haven't been able to close it out. I mean, these guys have got more seconds than my cousin Rob when he's going back for food at Christmas. We really need to see more from them, dear.
00:16:58 I hope Cousin Rob is okay. I hope Cousin Rob is doing just fine. I will say, in contrast to Aurora, who haven't managed to find a win, I managed to pick a team that has exactly one win, but go next or interesting for a different reason. Adnim, Henchmen, and Kinda, have actually been a team that, despite not winning that many games, won this split.
00:17:20 They've actually been performing near the top of the leaderboard in almost every other way, making it up to fourth place. It seems like time and time and time again. Matchday 5, they were fourth place. Matchday 7, they were fourth place. When you look at this team and the overall damage that they've done throughout the season, they're in third place. That's a joke. They're in fourth place. It's always fourth for these guys. Go next. Just continue to be basically right there.
00:17:49 Next to all of the teams that are holding the big trophies, that are getting the big wins. And I absolutely see them as a squad that is capable of taking those wins. Near the end of the season, yeah, I want to see them dial things up a little bit more because the pressure gets up there. You want to make it to regional finals. You want to make it to LAN. But the big question is not so much whether they are a team that has that in them, but whether they can start executing, not just as we approach, you know, regional finals LAN, which I'm pretty sure they'll make it to.
00:18:18 Aber wenn wir die Matchpoint-Finals, die immer noch warten, bei jedem Apex-Legend-Event gewinnen werden, ist wirklich sehr wichtig. Und vieles kann sich auf I-Henchman belehnt, die die Stand-Out-Player für die Squad ist. Sie hat viele Kills durch die Saison genommen und haben gesagt, dass sie 4th in Damage sind. Sie wissen, dass sie 4th in Damage sind? Wie ist 4th in Damage als Spieler, overall?
00:18:46 Ja, es ist Henchmen, es ist Henchmen. Picking up a lot of kills, making a big difference, and specifically in the damage differential, always managing to stay positive is a really, really good sign for Henchmen, as he continues to help the squad push forward. He's not carrying this single-handedly by any means. There's a lot of firepower on the squad, but he is a player that is standing out as one to watch on a team that...
Faceit Watch und Team-Analysen: Aurora, Go Next und 10K
00:19:11
00:19:11 is also one to watch. And if you want to watch them maybe a little bit more closely, you can actually check them out on Faceit Watch, because over on Faceit Watch, we've got the opportunity to watch all your favorite teams, all your favorite players, and I guess whoever catches your fancy in the meanwhile.
00:19:27 One of my favorite features of Faceit Watch is being able to pull up the map feed while we've got the main broadcast going. It really helps provide important context for what's going on in the macro game of Apex Legends, which is some of the most important. You're going to see it featured all the time. One of the other features that I'd love to shout out is the fact that if you tune into Faceit Watch Day, and honestly, even if you don't, you can go back and watch individual VODs and POVs throughout the week.
00:19:56 Just head over to faceit.com slash watch, and you are going to find a trove of information to sort through when it comes to, again, your favorite players, teams, and perhaps those that you're just a little bit curious about. But if you've got any curiosities to throw our way...
00:20:10 We'd love to hear them, especially when it comes to the interview that we'll be having around the halftime, where Aku from Maus will be joining us on the broadcast. Throw any questions, comments, concerns for Aku our way, as well as any thoughts you have while watching today's matches, and we'll do a quick check-in around the middle of the broadcast to see what everyone's thinking. Give a little temp check on match day number eight.
00:20:33 That's for your thoughts. Graceful, I wanted to pivot to your thoughts because I touched on that 10K stuff in the middle and I think we've got a little bit more time to talk about what exactly is going on with 10K. Just give me your overall take on the situation and we can start moving and picking up questions from there. I'll try to keep it as brief as I can. I think that G-Dolphin coming and having a lot of confidence to say he gave the options.
00:20:59 I don't like the IGLing, we can either change this up to where I can IGL, or maybe, you know, because they were having a hard time adapting to each other. A lot of controversy around the fact that, hey, you know, you're joining a duo, you should follow the duo, or, you know, Cashier is very, he has a lot of results behind him as the IGL, so there was a lot of thoughts about that. But the fact that they were mature about it and said, here, this is what I feel, is a great, you know, great thing to show from GDOLF, in my opinion. The pickup of Natsuki...
00:21:26 Das ist, für mich, die wichtigste Part, weil sie alle wissen, wie sie die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleiche, die gleich
00:21:52 Bring something that the old people might not have, that they can now, you know, pop off as well. So I think good choice for Haymaker, because if you can't adapt as a team squad, then you gotta maybe go back to the roots a little bit, and Nasky does that for them. Hold on, have you just come on here to pitch for your spot on a pro-league team, Graceful? Is that what I'm hearing? I will say I had two options to go in. I just decided not to. Oh!
00:22:18 Oh, he's been keeping that one in his back pocket. Okay, okay.
00:22:23 Geom, ich war zu fragen, dass wir diese zwei IGLs haben, jetzt haben wir Natsky und Kashera auf den gleichen Team. Ich meine, Tempcheck auf das? Wie sind Sie das für 10K? Sie haben die gleiche Riede auf dem Spiel, aber sie haben auch vielleicht fallen down die Leaderboards ein bisschen mehr. Ich werde das mit Graceful machen.
00:22:51 Ja, look, thank you, D. It's an interesting question, isn't it? I mean, we've seen IGL team-ups before, like obviously famously with Falcons, where we've had both Waltzi, Zero, and Hal, three former IGLs join up, and that's obviously been a success. They just want to land Graceful. On the side of Kashira and Natsuki, I think it's a little bit different, because Hal, Zero, and Waltzi...
00:23:18 Ja, you know, it's a very common thing to where you're kind of stacking, you know, the brain power rather than raw fighting power.
00:23:46 Totally understandable. I think Natsky even touched on this with a tweet earlier on, where he said, you know, I have been fragging for a bit as well, so he can bring that out of his pocket, and I would like to believe so. If he says that he can frag, then I hope so. Maybe a lot of the times as well, you have to remember that teams tend to have like a star player, and they tend to overshine other players sometimes. I would give a great example for me is, you know, when I play with Jake and Mei, a lot of people saw Mei's mechanical fragging.
00:24:12 Weil er war der Wingman Goat in der Zeit. Während man die Stats und man sieht, wer ist eigentlich Impactful in Fights. Weil wenn man 8,000 Damage hat und man 2,000 Damage hat, wenn wir in Barometer waren und man hat eine Charge Rifle und ich nicht hat? A lot of the time, diese Stats man hat sich mit einem Pinch of Salt, weil es nicht wirklich reflektiert, wie Impactful man ist. Ich würde sagen, als IGL...
00:24:37 that you are capable of making the decision-making of taking proper fights and engagements where you're impactful, even if you might not one-meg people like the best roller players out there in the world. But I think that, I would like to believe, and I think that Natsuki coming in as a fragger, if that is the case, that he can still be impactful in the fight. Yeah, I mean, it looks like we're, I think we're going to get the server started up pretty soon, guys. I guess the other thing that I think about was...
00:25:04 A change that we saw in both Hal and Waltzy, if we're still tugging on that thread about IGLs coming together, is that at the start, it felt like they brought a lot of their proactivity, a lot of the thinking that they had to do in those teams previously when they were the IGLs.
00:25:25 And it sort of bled away a bit as they had to then adapt to Zero's system of playing. How do you think Nasky is going to go in terms of adapting his playstyle to Kashira's when they team up here? Yeah, I completely understand what you're saying. You know, some people were saying even about Hal, who has been regarded as a really good fragger throughout all time.
00:25:49 Oh, he was throwing on X-Charakter, X-Legend, whichever Legend you pick. He was struggling with this. And that actually comes back to not being able to play the same way you're used to. Natsuki might be able to, on his older teams, he was always making the plays, like you said. We're doing this and we're doing it now. When you're not the person calling that play, will it affect you? And I think yes to a degree. Now the question comes to how fast will he? And they also said, you know, we're trying to turn this Titanic around.
00:26:15 Because he was having a really tough time with ups and downs. I think that now he's been lacking a little bit of passion and motivation in the past. And I think now is the fire. Even though it's a Titanic, it's the fire. This is the fire and motivation he needs to pull through. So I think that he can. We'll have to see though.
00:26:36 All right, well, we've got something very special coming up. The midseason playoffs are just around the corner. Why don't we get a sneak peek at that while we're waiting for this first game to get started?
Midseason Playoffs Vorschau, POI Draft und Map Rotation
00:27:29
00:27:29 It's not too long now, just over a month until we'll see the second LAN of ALGS Year 5. And that, of course, will be happening at the Cadiz Esports Arena in Riyadh. So that's going to be the midseason playoffs. But graceful, I'm starting to think about the POI draft now as we head into our...
00:27:53 Ja, definitiv.
00:28:17 Ich denke die größte Sache für mich ist wahrscheinlich...
00:28:36 Ich weiß nicht, ich würde sagen, WALL ist eine der einen, die ich fühle mich hat. Viele von diesen PYs haben sich sehr stark durch die Zeiten gemacht, aber die Leute haben sich sehr viel prioritisiert. Back in der Zeit, man würde immer Spam mid-Center-Zone und jetzt die Leute optieren mehr für Edgeplay oder wie ich mag es sagen, Midspeed, wo man starten an Edge und dann auf Zeit, man geht in ein bisschen späterer Zones. Interessant zu sehen, dass es das immer wieder in PL stattfindet, als auch in der Openland.
00:29:02 Yeah, so I'm just having a look at some of the POIs that have been left Fallow here. So we've got Devastating Coast has not been picked up. The East Trail, or Cliffside as it used to be called, has not been picked up. Aurora are landing over at Trident, which means they will most likely get access to both Trident and North Pad. Go next. They're landing up in Lightning Rod, so they get free access to the Trident, because as we said, East Trail is not there.
00:29:29 Mid map isn't being picked up, so that means we've got Twisted Minds over at Cascade Falls. They've got a bit more access to loot there. Bean also, no one's sitting there at the moment, so that means Atlas going over at Mill also have...
00:29:44 Potential to rotate through there, get extra beacons, extra loot, and frankly, just an easier path through that southern side of the map. So, yeah, lots of space, honestly. And what this contributes to sometimes is the start of the map being a little more open, right? We don't see necessarily as many fights early on unless you do have some very fight-hungry teams coming through.
00:30:11 Because they're just not fighting for quite as many spots in those first maybe like three or four zones graceful. Yeah, I think that, you know, we probably shouldn't see as many fights due to the fact that two teams are essentially missing. But you will also see that maybe people will take it as an isolated fight early on because I always like to say if you're fighting, fight as early as you can. Never fight when the zone is closing because that's when people are doing their macro and they will either 3P or interrupt the fight in some way.
00:30:38 So I definitely feel like that we might see some isophytes, but like you said, most likely not. People will be chilling a little bit, grabbing that rotational loot, you know, around beans and other POIs that people haven't been picking. Because those POIs right now is not enough for people to just loot that small part and then just play center zone. You're just going to get mobbed by people being stacked as hell. Yeah, yeah. I mean, you do send...
00:31:01 Tend to see those teams maybe sometimes running a Watson or something. That's one way you can alleviate the fact that you don't have as many meds. You don't have as many resources. But I mean, we saw that in Apex South just today or yesterday, right? Where we had maybe four teams who were essentially split dropping, which is, you know, not something we've actually seen for a while, right? Since the introduction of the POI draft and the removal of the drop ship from...
00:31:31 Apex.
00:31:33 Splitdropping has been less of a thing. But yeah, now that we've got a couple of free POIs popping up due to the disbanded teams, you can see teams, especially in, you know, Trident North Pad Area, Echo Coastal, Launch Pad, Devastated Coast. These are all kind of grouped POIs that if you are aware of the situation, you can potentially double up your loot. And even in some cases, your Evo.
00:32:02 Because you might get two evo caches, two assault bins, two support bins, two survey beacons, just by having access to that kind of stuff. Yeah, a ton of resources. And even if you don't split loot immediately and take it, it'll definitely be taken as rotational loot. So I think a lot of these teams that have that free space is very happy about it, because that's not something you get all the time. But being able to adapt...
00:32:26 Ja, und ich denke, wie sie adaptieren, ist ein sehr guter Punkt. Hier ist die Rotation für heute, by the way, 3.
00:32:51 Uh, Stormpoint's coming up and we'll be following it with E-District on the back half of this set as well. So, I mean, as far as I understand, if I'm reading the Reddit comments correctly, Graceful, this is, uh, the most fun map rotation we've got today. Yeah, I mean, I would, I would say so. And even just playing ranked, I prefer these two maps the most as well. So, uh, I think it's a great choice because both of these maps is...
00:33:20 The maps where you're not really lost. You're not losing any zone because of the zone alone. Unless you're like a super fast first zone speedrunner and then you misread the zone.
00:33:31 But if you're playing in mid-speed or late-game, you can win any zone. And I think that's what most of the teams are really happy about, is the fact that you're not losing due to a zone, you're losing to a misplay. And I think everybody can agree that, hey, I would rather it be in my hands than in the hands of RNG. Look, it's a Battle Royale, Graceful. You can never get rid of it entirely.
00:33:58 Most definitely, and I agree with you as well, Gino. I think that though, when we're going into this here, seeing everybody looting, doing their routing early on, we're gonna see some teams up to maybe scout a little bit more because there's less teams in the lobby. I think that we will see though normal, typical weapon pickups. You know, there's been a little bit of a hot topic between P20 mainly and R9, you know.
00:34:20 Und ich persönlich sage, dass R9 ist, weil ich einfach das Gefühl habe. Aber mit P20, du kannst nicht beschädigen, dass du so viel Leweig hast. Even wenn du 10-Hand-Shot hast, du kannst jemanden mit dir nehmen. Das Konsistenz und Teamfight-Presence ist großartig.
00:34:37 Ja, ich denke, das ist eine der besten Beziehungen zu sehen zwischen den beiden ist, dass es ein briefes Wunder an der Starten der Fight ist, wenn es P20 geht gegen R9 in dieser Situation ist. Es ist ein briefes Wunder, wo R9 ist besser, wenn du den 1-Clip geträtst, in einem kurzen Rang.
00:34:54 And then as soon as you have to reload, all of a sudden the P20s sort of become a lot more consistent, as you said. The other thing, actually, I think I've heard that's quite interesting to note, is that...
00:35:08 The R9 can be a lot better on Assault Heroes, because once they get the crack with that initial R99 mag, they get the faster reload as per the Assault class perk, and that, you know, closes the distance between those two guns a little bit. Yeah, most definitely. That's kind of the whole thing, is that whether you one mag them...

Spielanalyse: Cybercats vs. 10k, Strategien und Zonenverlauf
00:35:57
00:35:57 Oh my god, yeah, wow, we're over a Barrow here, and this is Cybercats versus 10k. You can see 10k don't necessarily want this smoke, because they seem to be pulling back off the hide. Obviously, you know, you want to be keeping the hide on your opponents if this is a fight that you want to take, but I don't think that 10k necessarily need to get into it this early. They're probably happy to just play this out a little bit longer.
00:36:24 Es ist nicht so, dass sie die Critical Damage haben oder etwas anderes machen, aber... Oh mein Gott, ist das ein Gigabrain-Player? Wir sehen uns die Void-Nexus auf Heide wieder? Ja, ich denke, dass sie sich auf die Low-Grohre gegründet haben, um wir re-engagingen und re-engagingen. Nein, es war die Plattform-Warm-Heide, ich konnte nicht sagen. Sie re-positioniert und macht es aus dem Heide.
00:36:49 Ich denke, das ist ein guter Tipp, weil es die erste Spiel ist. Wir müssen die ersten und die ersten Spiel ein bisschen erstellen. Wenn du schnell hast, hast du die Zeit, das zu fühlen. Das ist wirklich wichtig. Und wenn wir über 10K sprechen, wo es wirklich oder die ist, sie sind wirklich gut. Ich glaube, ich sah etwas, wir brauchen eine zweite, dritte, dritte, oder etwas crazy, und dann gewinnen. Und sie wollen sicher, dass sie die properen Sätze sind, eher als ein Match. Ja, ich meine, nicht nur das, aber das Fakt.
00:37:18 Das ist der erste Spiel zusammen, als Team, in Pro-League. Imagine wenn du in den ersten ersten zwei Minuten gehst, und dann geht es um, die Crash-Out ist, uh, inevitable. So, uh, ich bin kind of liking, uh, die, uh, die Longer Game hier von 10k. Ich denke, das macht viel Sinn für sie. Anyway, sie werden zu Beginn gehen. Die Zone ist zur Down-Beast.
00:37:45 But it's not super over Downbeast. So I'd be interested to hear if you think this one is going to continue pulling that way. Maybe go in front of Downbeast. I mean, clearly no one's reading this as a checkpoint zone because there's no one inside that set of mountains right now. Yeah, I mean, from having playing literally a billion games of rank lately, it typically ends closer towards Downbeast. Or even northeast of Downbeast by the Donut mainly.
00:38:13 Und die Leute sind opting für das, ich würde sagen, weil das einfach nur das ist. Weil, ihr wisst, die Sohans haben sich immer wieder aufhören, und ich denke, das ist das wahrscheinlich. Wenn nicht, wenn es um, wenn es weitergeht geht, das wäre ein sehr langer Schritt. Und ich denke, dass die Teams von Downbeats sind, die immer wieder aufhören. Du musst nicht sicher, dass du in einem Ort bist, wenn du es nicht in einem Ort bist, wenn du es nicht in einem Ort bist. Also, ich denke, die Leute sind opting, um zu sagen, hey, wir gehen Downbeats, weil es egal ist, wo es gut geht. Das macht viel Sinn.
00:38:41 Meanwhile, uh, over below Stormcatcher, we've got SJP2 coming up against Gonext down here. And as you can see, the first knock onto Kearney here means Gonext are kind of looking for this, but the other two members of SJP2 have absolutely legged it, left their teammate for dead. Obviously, that's, uh, the right, the right way to play the game oftentimes. And there we can see.
00:39:08 Taking the Ashe port out. So they are going to probably go all the way down to Pylon here and look for the reset. Yeah, playing for the reset after you lose one that early and they could actually engage on you. Like, you know, Ballistic and Ashe are terrifying. One of you goes down, you either get Ashe TP'd on or like at bare minimum you get snared, somebody might end up going down as well. If not, you get Ashe TP'd or you just get Ballistic ran out for 45 seconds. It's not a good feeling. They would just go for the reset. I agree with that.
00:39:38 10K ist ein bisschen PVE-Farming auf der Seite hier. ZipLine, Mafia, Navi, Replytotem sind um Mil. Wir diskutieren die probabilität, ob ob die Zone ist vielleicht Mil oder vielleicht um Downbeast. Und da ist ein bisschen ein spreader Team zwischen den beiden. Definitiv mehr Team auf der Downbeast-Side. Aber du wirst wissen.
00:40:05 This is one of the harder-to-read circles for my money, just because it's a lot more inland than we usually see. If it's, you know, if it's one that's going over sort of the back platform of Down Beast, it's much more likely to sort of pull all the way out there. But here's the moment of truth. What are we going to get today? Oh, it's a pull south. It's a bit of a mill zone here, Graceful. I like this. If this is the one, open them.
00:40:34 between the three rocks on the hill. Not a huge fan, if that's where it ends up pulling. Anywhere else though, I'm completely fine. I love mill endings. Or even just, you know, the buildings north of it. I think that a lot of teams are opting for it, whereas you can see on the opposite side of things, well, SCP-2 was resetting, but Nemesis, Gonex, Cybercats, Cat, Ronin even, are all playing this whole mid-speed, probably grabbing either a beacon, or they're just coming in a little bit later, a little bit more stacked. I personally feel like this is the meta of mid-speed, due to the fact that...
00:41:02 You're not relying on ZONE, you're relying more on fighting. But like I said, the more teams that are doing the exact same thing, we're talking 3P, 4P, potentially 5P, depending on timing, and that's the scariest part, really. Picking the right... The right fight is easy to pick, in my opinion, but the right timing, incredibly hard in lobbyists like this.
00:41:21 So when you're talking about mid-speed, because of course we've got 18 teams in the lobby here, Graceful. It feels like we could see some fights break out soon, but just in case, you know, we're sitting here for a couple of minutes. That's not a term I've heard a lot before. So if you want to explain mid-speed, you know, we talk about teams that, you know, they'll play for, say, third beacon or fourth ring beacon and then act off that kind of information. Is that what you mean by mid-speed?
00:41:50 Ja, ich werde einfach mal durch. Erstmal, Early Rotator ist die erste Beacon-Knowledge, oder Ring-Konsel-Knowledge. Und dann, sofort, du gehst aus der ersten Beacon-Knowledge. So, du kannst du hart-deckst, wo das erste Beacon-Knowledge ist. Das kann entweder ein Gott-Spot early sein, oder in diesem Fall, wenn du Bound-Beast-Ereignen hast, wenn du Bound-Beast-Ereignen hast, dann wird es schnell in der Tougher-Spot, correct?
00:42:15 Midspeed würde jetzt nicht auf der ersten Beacon Knowledge gehen, sondern auf der zweiten Beacon, aber auf der zweiten Beacon, 99% gehen auf der zweiten Beacon. Das wäre die dritte Beacon, die wir gerade sehen haben. Und dann entscheiden, wo wir gehen und kämpfen für ein Spot. Denn in diesem Moment, die Teams mit der Beaconung nicht haben einen Spot in der neuen, richtige Beaconung. Das ist das Midspeed wir sprechen. Und dann, wenn wir sprechen von H-Pain, wir sprechen von ...
00:42:41 Sitting in Zone until Zone 3 closing, almost Zone 4, Superstack, taking a fight regardless of where the Zone is because you're just that stacked compared to the teams that rotated early. Mitspeak famously known due to the fact that, you know, Zero has been playing that way before it became a thing and made really good success because of how, you know, well he's adapting to every Zone. Mmm. Wow, we've just seen Reply Totem.
00:43:06 Get taken out in the meantime. Kills spread across the board, actually. It wasn't like they took a particular fight. They just kind of got caught out in the open with multiple teams hitting them from multiple angles and therefore spreading the KP out across the board. That's why I think the number one team is like on one point at the moment because no one's really gotten into anyone else in any kind of particular way. It's really been quite spread out.
00:43:35 happily laying into them uh as a as a full lobby together but here we go this is might be our first full fight of the game here as ronin let the devotion sing here of course we've got the tempest enabled they're coming in here infinite energy ammo as kazakh and excuse get taken down
00:43:58 I mean, Night showed up there and he's like, hey, you guys were talking about me? This is why I got picked up. Almost ripped two people of Aurora almost immediately with that Devo, letting it sing as they take out two kills and get a super good spot from what they think the zone might be ending, you know. But I think they're happy because I'm pretty sure I saw Zone Knowledge as well. They're just locked and loaded, going to fight probably their way in, as other teams will be rotating shortly. Yeah.
00:44:25 Unfortunately, Ronan, pretty far, and there we go. The ring gets revealed, and it bounces back again! Yeah. So, it was looking like it was more towards Mill, but, yeah, I think because it was just such a... Like, it's not central, but it was central enough to sort of have the properties of a central zone, if that makes any sense to you, guys. And that means it's, yeah, we're just getting that real bouncy effect here, and now it's gone very much up towards down base, which means that...
00:44:52 Atlas, sitting in the most southern set of buildings in Down Beast, are going to be in an absolutely wonderful spot. And having a look at their composition, they do have a Watson. So they've got one of the only teams who have got the right legend to bunker down in those buildings.
Teamkämpfe, Legenden-Kompositionen und Spielentscheidungen
00:45:12
00:45:12 I think they're definitely happy with that. The zone was pretty much on top of those three rocks I said earlier. I pretty much hope it doesn't pull back south a little bit because those endings are rough. Even though they're in the house and they're happy there with the Watson, teams actually have quite a lot of playability once top of the down beast is out. People will be playing fence line right next to them. People will be playing outside of their building potentially and close to the silos as well. It's a scary spot to be in because...
00:45:38 All it takes is one team to make one play and immediately you get thirded, fourthed when it's that close as we see teams above, teams below. Nobody playing in another building as of yet, but Team War here though. Trying to hold out what we saw earlier as Hoodie goes down. Yeah, also they don't have the altar here.
00:45:56 And one thing I've definitely noticed about an early Down Beast Zone in a series, Graceful, is that the top of Down Beast is nowhere near as safe as it usually is. Because alters can just void passage straight up into you, usually...
00:46:14 You've got a lot of warning, especially if you, you know, you're playing Crypto here like Team War. If anyone is, you know, ziplining up to you, evacking on to you, anything like that. And it's quite easy to hold height. But with the alters in play, it can be a lot tougher. That said, because of the southern pull here, they're not actually going to be able to stay on that height for very much longer.
00:46:37 Yeah, I agree with you. Legend compositions do change the dynamics a lot, as Alter makes Hydron, pretty much like any spot, pretty much aimable with just a Q. And I think that, you know, even if we talk about Alter or not, we're also seeing Peter.
00:46:53 Peter! Peter ist so stark gerade jetzt, dass du ein 2-Tap hast. Wenn du ein Piercher hast, dann du ein 2-Tap hast. Und nicht mehr, dass andere Leute an dich zu sehen sind, dass du jetzt auch, dass du jetzt, die Drakken von oben sind, die Drakken von oben sind, als Atlas ist, um ihn für die Kills zu gehen.
00:47:11 Yes, it looks like Atlas with the high ground here are going to be able to take this one out. The Tracker Dart actually helping Black Venom get the bead on where his opponent is right now. Atlas with three men still up and running. They're not actually going to go for the first? Okay, interesting. They're trading aggro.
00:47:33 Pushing back into the building, letting themselves get the bats, get the medkits off, uh, and playing that one, like, incredibly safe as we see four or five teams all squashed into these buildings here over a checkpoint.
00:47:49 Ich meine, das ist was ich schon gesagt über die Timings, wenn ihr fünf Teams auf der gleichen Timing seid, und ihr seid auf der gleichen Seite. Es wird ein Fiesta sein. Und jetzt, Gonext ist ein enormes Aufmerksamkeit, als er hat eine große Angle gemacht. Henchman zeigt, warum er der Nummer vier Damage ist, ich glaube es war, wie er gesagt hat. Er ist, er kommt, um Platz zu nehmen, und ich liebe die Proaktivität.
00:48:14 Oh, yeah, falls all round. I mean, I don't know how... It looks like he almost got four kills there. It might not have been exactly, but I'm sure if we check at the end of the game, it'll average out to something like that. How are Dragon still alive, by the way? I don't know how he's still alive, but that down was enough for Legion Gaming to make a play of that as well. And now, like I said, when you're too many teams in close quarters, somebody's gonna take that chance to make a play. Oh, my.
00:48:42 Oh, they've actually managed to get even into the building now. And you can see they got the finish on Tryhard Thor. And they were trying to do the opposite for such a long time. Okay, so they finally get into building. And then all of a sudden, that's the end of them. Oh man, that was a very hard to predict fight there. Meanwhile, Team War, who came off the top of Down Beast. Now they push in a little bit further.
00:49:09 Looks like they're just holding this Arcstar in case the team inside decide to push out. That was purely a defensive measure while they got the res off. Now that they have, they can see that they're pushed out. Oh no! Legion Gaming pushed in to try and make this happen with the Ashes dashing everywhere. The Ashes dash is enough to win that for Team War.
00:49:32 That was such a sloppy fight from legion gaming because they should have three man drop they drop one by one by one and got ripped one after the other but now speaking of rip I see five frag grenades notifications on the screen that's clutch gets naded out oh My set up was that nades was that a a charm a primed bow perhaps either way There's a lot of destruction coming their way now with six squads left
00:50:00 Oh no, Uchako, he was trying to get something done there, but makes himself a bit of a sitting duck in the meantime. And as a result, you can see Navi getting tethered, just taking shots as they desperately try and pop a few cells to stay alive. Yeah, trying to stay alive there as well with the red armors, but that does not matter when Seer Tenacity is making a play on you with those nayses, Fyuta.
00:50:28 Walks up with the car. I like the car personally. Was a big fan when it came out. Not seeing it picked up as much now as most people are opting for R9 and P20, but he's doing work and, you know, happy to see that. Yeah, I mean, I wouldn't say it's the strongest weapon right now, but certainly in the right hands, you never know. Zipline Mafia make a swift move closer to the zone. They've got 10k ahead of them. It looks like that early...
00:50:54 Disengagement by 10k has actually paid dividends in terms of getting them closer to the end of the game here picking up some Picking up some placement points. Let's see if they can add a few KP to this as well graceful They are just holding zipline mafia out with nades 10k inside the circle right now zipline mafia are not
00:51:16 Yeah, I mean, I was really happy to see those nades play there, but I would like to see Nasty on Ashe peak a little bit more aggressively since you do have that jetpack to get back out. But now, feud are still on the hunt from that as Zipline Mafia got eliminated. 10k right now is looking to run in with the zone as post goes down. Yeah, I mean, you saw Zero Tenacity take the hype there on the rock. And once they've done that, it really felt like 10k didn't have...
00:51:43 Any chance against them. That said, they've actually kind of ratted this out in the meantime. And somehow Team War get the cleanup onto Zero Tenacity first. So NK just kind of chuckling away in the corner. They might not really have a chance to win this game with one of them knocked and one of them dead right now. But we've got Team War here looking in a solid position as we see their...
00:52:11 Es ist Nasky als Solo. Wir haben Mind als Duo. Und dann haben wir Team War als Trio hier. So sicherlich werden sie das erste Mal aus, Graceful. Ja, ich meine, sie 100% auslösen diese Game aus, wenn sie irgendwie eine wirkliche Bedeutung geteilt sind. Aber sie sollten nicht machen das. Ich denke, die Arktik auch auf dem Team hat eine Menge...
00:52:35 Ich glaube, es ist ein sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr gut.
Spielende, Team War Sieg und Saisonstand
00:52:58
00:52:58 Imagine. Imagine if they'd gone down then. They've already secured at a minimum 7 placement points. Couple of kills on their side as well. Currently 13 points, yeah, for 10k. That's not too shabby whatsoever.
00:53:13 The nades go out. They'd probably prefer to be throwing those at the duo rather than the solo. But honestly, as long as Team Ward don't make a drastic misstep at this point, it's all gravy for them. You can see Mind actually pull in here just to secure second place. They don't want anything, you know, shifty happening and them losing the second place placement points. And there we go. The easy cleanup for Team Ward.
00:53:41 I mean, you saw Sherp, how calm he was playing. He was only one person left. He still didn't swing solo. He just, hey, you know, we're nading and we're peeking and then jumping when we get damaged. I think that's really good because that shows discipline. And when you have that discipline, you close out games. And when you close out games, you have a great set. Haha, not too bad from Team War. 10k Aida for their first outing. That's solid.
00:54:07 Um, you know, they're, if we look at the season standings, they're currently on 39 points. Uh, they only need 13 points from the next two match days, um, to, to potentially get through, uh, to land for them. So, uh, sorry, to, to get through to the regional finals. Um, so, wow. Uh, interesting one there and a nice first game to start us off.
00:54:32 Tio, was you think of that one? Sorry. No, no, you're not. Yes, there we go. That's what I was looking for. 22 points, very solid. This showed proactiveness throughout the whole thing. Mine, however, one kill point from that positioning as well shows that maybe they were lacking that proactiveness that we saw from Team War. Other teams, however, going down the line had been kind of mild from 5th and downwards though.
00:55:00 Yeah, obviously there's a few less points available in the pool with only the 18 teams here. Um, I think I saw some stats the other day about what the average, um, the average amount of points that any whipping team in Pro League gets. And I think it was just about 22. So this is essentially the average win of a team from Team War here, um, coming out in first place. Not a massive game, not, uh, you know, not a...
00:55:28 An anemic 1st place, it's a solid normal 1st place there from Team War, and certainly the amount of damage they put out was not anemic either, 4k from Team War. Yeah, I mean I think that the fact that the damage is also so evenly shows that they probably peaked together. Maybe they didn't have poke weapons too much, but they were just doing a lot of impactful damage, like I like to call it. You don't really need to see somebody have, you know...
00:55:54 4k and then 3k of that is just peter long range poke no we're everybody's sitting solid at 1k ish or a little bit higher that means we swung together and we did the damage yeah and that's uh that's exactly what you like to see from these teams uh a nice first win there from team war plenty of action to go that's just the first game on storm point we've still got two more on this map we'll go take a quick break right now and we'll be back with more storm point after this
00:56:38 The pressure, the expectations. Nah, I'm just kidding. I was born for this. Andiam! The future is here! Are you ready? I've got endless determination, a lifetime of practice, and a total lack of media training.
00:57:19 Why isn't you?
Rückblick auf Spiel 1 und Analyse von Team War
00:59:02
00:59:02 We just had our first game on Stormpoint. Genome, I've stolen you to commentate game number two with me. Stormpoint is one of my favorite maps to actually watch the action play out on. Game one was a very exciting beginning. I want to take a look back at the last circle, at the buildup.
00:59:20 Yeah, it was that push that they made that honestly dictated quite a few other teams' fates, and then they just kind of fell off out of nowhere. It looked like they were in a really strong position, but unfortunately just, I don't know, didn't watch their back.
00:59:51 Ja, ich denke, das ist ein, ich weiß nicht, was die Apex-Equivalent ist, aber wie, wenn Leute sagen, meine Augen sind größer als meine Stomach, das ist was es mit Zero Tenacity war, wo sie so viele Teams kamen, sie kamen, sie kamen, drei whole Teams kamen, und dann komplett vergessen, dass Team War war die einzige andere Trio in der Lobby, wirklich die einzige Loss-Condition, die möglicherweise für Zero Tenacity kamen.
01:00:20 Well done from Team War to clean this up, although, if I'm being honest, it is a top 3 scenario where nobody else is a full team, so really, it was a patience game. Yeah, if you don't close out that one, there's gonna be some stern words amongst the players and probably from your coach as well, right? As we see Team War win that first game with 10 kills, we also get to see our first ban for the series, it's an Ashe. Ooh.
01:00:49 Exciting specifically, because I know we were talking about Henchmen in the middle of that game, and a lot of our high-impact players do like to make use of the Ashe, because I think you were the one calling it over at Down Beast. The Ashe dash just, it goes crazy. Yeah, I mean, yeah, you genuinely see it be the factor, the winning factor in fights sometimes, and we saw that there, especially against controller players, right? They have trouble quickly.
01:01:18 Adapting with a 180, um, it can be a little bit tough for them, so you know there's a big grin on any M&K player's face if they just dash straight over your head, turn around and get that last lick of damage on you. Yeah, I've seen it happen quite a few times and Ashe now being removed does open up a few other options if you want to try and get a little bit more aggressive, if you want to...
Teamzusammensetzungen und Strategien im Spiel
01:01:44
01:01:44 Spiel auf und in your face. Wir haben ein paar Spieler gesehen, wie die Bangalore. Aber wenn ihr Priorität ist, wie ihr Team von Place zu Place ist, wir haben schon ein Valkyries gesehen. Wir können auch ein paar Valkyries sehen, mehr Wraiths, mehr Pathfinders, die nicht genau sind in Game 1. Ich weiß nicht genau, wie viele es war, aber es war nicht sehr viele. Wir sehen uns, was die Lösungen sind, was die Teams getrennt werden, oder was sie wählen, als wir in Game 2 gehen.
01:02:11 I mean, we had Pathfinder bans in both series early as A and A back south, by the way. By the way, Dia. So it's fascinating how that changes from region to region. I will say Ash is one of the most consistent bans across all regions. It's not necessarily always the first, but we've also sort of... I feel like we've almost come full circle, right? It was like Ash was super, super strong.
01:02:36 And then we had a bunch of meta changes. People were trying out different things. Ash, all of a sudden you'd see some series where she wasn't banned out at all or perhaps later in the series. And now we're kind of back to square one.
01:02:49 Back with the team, back with the endzone that started us off in game number one. Team War over at Downed Beast. A nice win for them off of the POI that they called home for today. I am noticing the altar for Sherb as we had a little funny interaction there trying to pick up a stock. Altar actually going to be the legend band coming out of this game. So for any teams that are running that, looking over at the left side of the screen, I'm watching Cat. I'm watching Cats.
01:03:18 Funnily enough, CyberCats, as well as GoNext, and the list goes on and on for about 11 teams. Those are the squads that will need to make the highest impact plays with Alter, because after this is Nomás. Nomás! Yeah, look, I... Look, thinking about foreign languages, it actually... I just had a little thought when we were looking at that zone bouncing around in that last game, Dia, which is, you know the concept of false friends in language? It's where... I do not.
01:03:46 Okay, so it's where something sounds like something in a language, and so you assume it means the same thing in, say, Spanish as it does in English, but it actually has a completely different meaning. And we call it a false friend. And I always wondered, if there was a team who scanned Zone 3?
01:04:05 in the last game that almost like would have been a false friend for them because they would have seen it they would be like oh oh my god it's a mill pullback we better go towards mill but then we had the pullback pullback and it went back up towards downbased and you know my favorite part of that was like like you're talking about a lot of teams that are just operating off of face value i think would have experienced that false friend feeling that you're talking about you know who didn't was 10k
01:04:31 The team of two IGLs that we talked about at the start of the day, the team that's got a bunch of pressure on them, they read that zone really, really well. And you know what was fascinating about that was that they went to Mill and they didn't, there were so many teams there that I'm pretty sure they didn't actually get a chance to scan the Ring console, even though they would have wanted to in Mill. And if they had, it might have made the decision different.
01:04:57 Es wird sogar noch besser sein. Ich bin ehrlich, wenn Zero Tenacity in den Trennungen ist, gibt es eine gewünschte Anzahl von Ring-Predictions werden, und so für viele Teams, die sich auf die South-Side befinden, Zero Tenacity, auf der Jurassic-Seite zu sein, sollte sich in der Mitte dieser Zone-Poll beherrscht in der Mitte dieser Zone-Poll. Wobei der Barometer, die Cybercats sind ein bisschen ein Problem, als sie von der South-Side move auf von der South-Side sind, und sie haben sich durch ein paar Chokes zu gehen.
01:05:26 Yeah, they're looking at teams like Atlas ahead of them at the north of Barometer there. Not quite in Bamboo, sitting just across there at the bins, but oh gosh, you really cannot be too careful when there are 30-30s on the other side of it. Graceful was pointing it out before, you know, if you have a Skullpiercer on the 30-30...
01:05:54 You can get instantly two tapped with purple armor. It does 215 damage. 216 damage, actually. Oh, Trix. Feeling that 200-odd damage. Not gonna connect with the last shot off of Wrenches, but Cybercats still are applying so much pressure.
01:06:13 I don't expect that Atlas can actually stay behind this rock for long, and Tryhardthor doesn't get to go through the portal that was set up for him by his teammate, so Ilanzi is certainly going to clean that kill up, you have to imagine. Just a couple of killpoints going in the way of Cybercats, but even now with the fact that they're positioned this far south, remember we mentioned it might be an issue for them because they have to fight through other teams? In this particular case, this is the part of the game where you have the most breathing room.
01:06:39 Es ist, um, als du, als du gesagt hast, wir haben nur die 18 Spots in der Lobby, und deshalb gibt es ein bisschen Leerwein für diese Teams, um zu just chillen, um, wenn das ihr wünscht ist. Aber, um, das gesagt...
01:06:53 A lot of good spots have been taken up already in Jurassic and in Pylon, and there's actually quite a few teams taking their time. We've got, I want to say, seven teams who are still well on the outskirts of the zone right now, which I would say is higher than average.
01:07:12 You know, I'd love to look at some of those squads as well, because when we talk about teams that are sitting outside the zone, it's teams like Ronin that we mentioned at the start of the day that are up towards the north right now. And Ronin, really funny story, off of game number one, had a great fight up against Aurora. And then, unfortunately, one of the first casualties is Zero Tenacity got on the roll.
01:07:38 Yeah, I mean, as you mentioned them, we actually go into a fight between Aurora and Navi, and Navi, who have just been going from strength to strength so far this split, have gotten the better of them. There's been one knock already, and it looks like the Void Nexus reset has been successful for Aurora, however. I would also like to point out that...
01:08:06 They've clearly been listening to the pre-show, Dia, because they've taken my suggestion. We've got a Pathfinder and an Altar on the side of Aurora. Picks that they have been loath to go for so far in this season. Cybercats in another fight. Ilanzi.
01:08:25 actually making quick work of the squad as atlas do go down this was the continued push that we saw from the fight earlier but it's given navi time to rock up on this a resetting cyber cats in the building has not has navi hot on their heels i think we're gonna get a full reset right now but knuckle cluster at least is going to buy navi time could walk up towards the window remember we've got void nexus is inside this building as well for a quick reset off from cats and looks like they're going to make use of that as i as we speak
01:08:54 ...und disengaged from an RB fight.
01:09:18 So you're a Nexuses guy, right? I looked this up. You're not a NexEye guy? I looked it up, I think, at the New Orleans land, and I am fairly confident that it's Nexuses. Okay. Okay. I'll take it back. I'll give you a little more confidence. If you've Googled it, you know, that's more than I've done. I'm fully confident.
01:09:43 Ja, ich hatte den Nex-Nex-Nex-Debate mit mir selbst und ich habe es ausgedrückt. Ich bin glücklich, dass jemand der Arbeit gemacht hat.
Strategische Spielzüge und Teamdynamiken im Apex Legends Match
01:10:05
01:10:05 Just keeping a lookout for any threats. But go next. We'll be passing by Na'Vi, who are ever on the rotate, perpetually looking for a squad to fight. Just nobody wants to do it. Why would you? With the form that they are in, it's not a fight that a lot of teams are going to win, frankly. Unless you're chipping in for the third party, but they seem to be pretty successful at navigating those as well. Especially when you've got Alter Crypto Fuse, that is a scary competition to come up against.
01:10:34 As I look around the lobby tier, there's not many teams that have a not scary, not aggressive looking composition, honestly. There is a lot of Crypto, Ballistic, Fuse, and Alter in this lobby. Yeah, and Alter specifically, like we talked about, you know, most picked in this particular game, has a lot of impact on this.
01:10:57 ...on the skirmishes, especially in the mid-game and early-game, as we've already seen so many teams able to stay alive and get aggressive at the same time using Altar, whether it be for the safe retreat or the quick offense inside a building. Even now, I really like this move. Uchako gets sent out with the Void Nexus to retreat to, sets down one for his team to rotate to, and nobody ever has to be in any trouble. Uchako can always retreat. Navi never have to see the light of day. It's perfect.
01:11:26 Ah, just like us. He's just like me, for real, for real. The gamer sitting inside on his iPad. I mean, that's the safest strategy, or one of the safest strategies you can have on Stormpoint. Go Next, after being shot at by Navi, did actually set up defensively by themselves, just to see if anybody else is rotating with the man scan now having come through. Go Next, we'll know.
01:11:54 Nobody else is rotating from the north alongside them. Their big problems will be Legion Gaming, who are in front of them right now and the choke that Atenim has just indicated. And BCGO, we're going through the cave. Off to the eastern, western? Western side. Nailed it, first try. Haha, Cardinal Directions.
01:12:18 All right, go next. Don't have a lot of time here as they need to move in and take this fight against Legion Gaming. And as you can see, they've got the high ground, Anakin. So it's going to be a tough one. Go next. Oh, huddling in the corner. There's a tiny, tiny little bit of space they've got to play. Where's this EMP coming from? There are so many drones in the sky right now, dear. I am not sure.
01:12:44 Das ist eine sehr gute Bewegung von Gonext, EMP in der Push, mit Altar wird ein Quick Reset auf Lowground, aber die Arbeit nicht mehr gemacht wird von Gonext. Es ist Navi, die von der Rückseite kommt und legt die Lesion. Ein weiter EMP, diese Zeit auf Gonext, als ALL THE WAY...
01:13:01 From the eastern side, Ronin swooped in, and now this is a three-team battle. Na'Vi, Go Next, and Ronin with Hoodie chunking in damage from the side. It is Go Next, who are the big losing end of this kind. They're going to be full thirsted, and Ronin moving up onto Na'Vi, who have retreated back into the building. See that? Void Nexus right in front of them. Na'Vi don't want to fight. They want the easy kills, and Ronin, they're just here to clean up.
01:13:26 Yeah, look, I can't believe there's even one member of GoNext left alive after that. And it looks like it's Atnam who does actually manage to scamper away with his life. I mean, there was more fire than an Australian bushfire season happening down there at the Jurassic Park. It was very, very rough for them to get out of. So many EMPs, so many mother loads. A really tough situation to deal with.
01:13:53 Ich meine, SJP2 absorbent Nade nach Nade und sie sind nicht die einzige Squad zu tun. BCGO in eine sehr schwierige Kampf gegen Malz und Cybercats haben auch gegen Dragons gespielt. No Ashdash zu close den Distanz. Diesmal Azuz, einfach nur in Dammage mit den P2020, aber jetzt ist der letzte Zip-Line. Das muss man für die Cybercats gewinnen. Und sie werden die Cybercats gewinnen. Und sie werden dann wiederholfen. Die 4, ein Reset, und initialtlich ein Push auf dem. Zero Tenacity kommen für die Kills.
01:14:23 Das ist ein Vornexus, aber es ist ein Vornexz. Er ist ein Vornexz, aber er ist ein Vornexz. Aber er ist nicht, er ist nicht, er ist ein Vornexz. Aber er ist nicht, er ist ein Vornexz. Er ist nicht, und sie sind nach dem Vornexz. Aber ich glaube, sie sind nicht, aber ich glaube, sie werden nicht mehr Zeit für den Vornexz. Aber ich glaube, sie werden nicht mehr Zeit für den Vornexz. Es ist ein Rat option hier für den Cyberkats. Zero Tenacity.
01:14:46 They just stick on the side. They don't even need to push that. And as you can see, there's a lot of action going on around Pylon as well because a lot of teams did predict a Pylon zone or at least were posting up in that POI and are now being forced to move out as the zone moves towards the fence between Pylon and Jurassic. That one's going to hurt. This bang ult is going to hurt. Dense manages to find a little bit of cover, but Seven and Kearney are not so lucky.
01:15:12 Fortunately, Bangal down now. No push to come off the back of that does make things a little bit safer. Kat are using the smokes off the Bangalore just to stay safe in this corner, but it's a really awkward spot for them to play. SJP2 now having taken a lot of damage may be the best choice to push, especially since they got so many teams looking at them. Seven pops the bat. Cybercats are going to go down. Twelve squads left.
01:15:34 But I'm looking at our other feline friends, and I'm not too comfortable about where Kat are sat right now. No, not with 10K staring at them. Also down there in the water, I think they're probably in that cutout part. But with Zipline Mafia looking at them on one side and SJP, two on the other DR, this is a very fraught situation. What I will say is that as you look at this zone, it pulls...
01:15:57 in between the two POIs. So it was a bit of a 50-50 as we see SJP actually push in here. Taking the fight, Kashera low, but no kills actually cleaned up by SJP2 and the Watson defense is really critical for them.
01:16:12 Such low health bars, but enough time for Natsuki to zip on out of there. Hittin' the wall bounce on the way will save the lives of 10k. As his two squad mates fall, but he at least manages to stay alive for now. Kashera gonna be cleaned up. Somehow SJP2 survived that, but Kat have come in for the third party. Natsuki, watching it from afar, is gonna try and collect a few kills. And we've even got the Zipline Mafia getting in on this. In they come. Kat go down. Densei's low. SJP2 go down. And Zipline Mafia clean it up. Now looking for Natsuki to finish off.
01:16:42 was started by SJP 2 Neske get spotted post kill tries to get out alongside him and he will with the zipline zipline mafia chasing him down on their namesake 10k will eventually fall but they almost got out of there
01:16:57 Ja, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der, der,
01:17:24 One side would get punished completely as they have to flood through the gates and head towards the other one. But this time, teams from both POIs will be okay. We can see it's Zipland Mafia and Team Nemesis on the South Pylon side. Meanwhile, we've got five squads sitting on the Jurassic side. Oh! Oh my god, this ring!
01:17:45 This is going to be a crazy endgame, but first we've got to get there. We have to see who our last two, maybe three teams standing will be. Ronan with an amazing spot if they can hold on to it. The same can be said of the Zipline Mafia Nemesis fight. Hoping to be the last squad to survive on the eastern side. Ronan has so much of my attention though. Sat up where we just saw that EMP go off. Na'Vi are looking at them and Ronan have to be the biggest squad.
01:18:14 Ja, ich meine, Ronin ist jetzt so viel Aufmerksamkeit, und sie haben einen Wotzen, um, zu, uh, repel, um, das Aufmerksamkeit zu haben. Es fühlt sich so wie diese Bracket, wo du hast Teams von einer Seite gegen einen Seite, und dann hast du ZipLighten gegen Team Nemesis. Na'Vi tatsächlich machte eine Bewegung über die andere Seite, als wir sehen Nemesis jetzt mit ZipLighten und Mafia haben. Sie wollen jetzt jetzt, stattdessen, stattdessen.
01:18:43 But of these two teams, Nemesis and Zipline Mafia, they now both got to contend with all the other squads that have made it over to their side.
01:18:51 Das sind die Zerotenacität und also Na'Vi, die alle auf der Pass hat. Zerotenacität hat die Retriebe aus dem Nemesis, das nicht gut für beide Squad. Kai'Sha wird zu sein, von Zerotenacität zu sein. Die Zerotenacität ist für die Zerotenacität. Feimix wird zu sein, aber auch Na'Vi, die auf der anderen Seite stehen, die sich in eine große Power-Position zu haben.
Spannungsgeladene Endphase und Teamstrategien in Apex Legends
01:19:14
01:19:14 As you mentioned earlier, this ring is going to end exactly on the doorway between the two POIs. Oh my god! We see Ochako hit a Kraber headshot through the fence. Nobody believes in the through the fence Kraber headshot. Ochako had the time to search for that. Now, Navi are looking at Ronin. Remember, the number one squad that everyone wants to take out.
01:19:40 Jetzt hat er eine große Weakness. Minder geht weiter. MGKlush zurück in die Spiel. Zero Tenacity ist jetzt wieder zu einem anderen Squad, als sie auf den anderen Seite nehmen. Zero Tenacity ist der beste Spiel, nicht auf die Na'vi-Fight. Aber jetzt spielen für 2nd, vielleicht sogar 3rd, als sie in der Top-3 sind. Aber als ein Duell, wie viel kann man tun gegen zwei Voll-Squats machen?
01:20:02 Es ist so schwer, aber realistisch, Navi haben das in die Bag, richtig? Surely, sie können das einfach weiter warten, bis Ronin und Zero Tenacity sind zusammengekommen.
01:20:13 Any kind of damage they're doing to each other, any utility they are wasting on the other team is an advantage for Na'Vi. They just need to play this slow. Make sure the other two teams are gonna come together first, then they've got the EMP in the back pocket from Hiyarka, and at that point Na'Vi should be able to take out this game. It's actually, we've had enough of a stalemate though, that Zero Tadacity got the respawn.
01:20:41 Und da ist eine große Sache, die mich nervös ist, als wir das Endgame erreichen können. Es ist nicht das, dass wir drei Teams haben, zwei Sides des Fens. Es ist das, dass alle drei Teams haben die Alter. Das ist die perfekte Alter, um zu nehmen.
01:20:56 und machen etwas verrückt werden. Triple Take in die Hand von Feinix. Sie schreit auf Ronin. Die beiden Teams werden sich näher bewegen. Na'Vi müssen die Threaten zu machen. Good shots von Feinix. Sie sehen ein Shieldbreak. Und jetzt vielleicht Zero Tenacity starten zu werden. In sie gehen. Pusher auf Ronin. Na'Vi, auf das alles passieren, durch die Fenze. Zero Tenacity verliert die ersten zwei Kills. Na'Vi, easy als ever. Swoop in für die win. Sie controlen die Battlefield. Und sie gewinnen, Game 2.
01:21:25 Yeah, look, it seemed like that one was in the bag as soon as we got to that sort of equilibrium between the three teams spread across the two sides of the fence there. Navi did well to take that out, but it's Zero Tenacity who seemed to be leading the pack after our first two games here. Yeah, I got to be honest with you. I'm impressed with Zero Tenacity.
01:21:54 The biggest play, you remember I shouted out Faceit Watch earlier because of the map stream? The biggest play, as you well know, Genome, was happening on the minimap, especially during that mid-game. Crazy plays out of Navi, making huge use of the altar. And I'm really sad that we have to say goodbye to altar moving into game three because it made such a big difference in this match.
01:22:15 Yeah, it was cool, but I think we also saw a lot of pushes enabled by Crypto. There's definitely a lot of very Crypto-aggressive-heavy teams, and they were certainly pushing in off the back of their EMPs a lot, too. 19 points for Na'Vi. Zero Tenacity. Another heavy kill game. 19 points for them. This is arguably even better than last game. I mean...
01:22:41 Given, I guess, the placement, it's not even arguably, it's just objectively better than their last game. But in terms of how much they're able to stand ahead of the lobby when it comes to the kills, let's take a look at the comparison between Na'Vi and Zero Tenacity. And I mean, it really shows here. We're talking about Na'Vi, the team that is second only to Alliance in the region, and Zero Tenacity, who are farming the lobby genome.
01:23:07 Farming 8k in 2 games. They have done the most damage out of any team in the lobby right now. And that is something that has propelled them to the top of that scoreboard. I mean, 33 points in 2 games. Nothing to be ashamed of, obviously.
01:23:28 Ja, es ist wirklich ein wirklich guter Tag für Zero Tenacity. Team War mit der Wind zu kommen, und Na'Vi, obwohl sie nicht zu viel verkauft haben, in Game 1 zu machen, hat es um 3rd zu machen. Das ist ein großer Start für sie, ein bisschen weiter nach unten. 10-K keep themselves in der Conversation. Wenn sie auf den 5th sind, können sie auf den 5th machen. Aber das ist eine Geschichte für eine andere Reihe, weil wir eine kurze Zeit haben, bevor wir in Game 3 haben.
Vorstellung der neuen Legende Sparrow und Analyse der Teamstrategien
01:24:11
01:24:11 I'm super excited to introduce to you our newest Legend, Sparrow. It's been a while since we've had a Recon Legend and we wanted to bring one that offered a new unique way of tracking enemies. He's also extremely agile, which allows him to excel at traversing the environment. Let's jump into his kit. For his passive, he has Double Jump. This allows him to have a second jump while he's in the air. He also has a unique ability called Wall Launch that allows him to quickly get to the top of walls by pressing jump while climbing.
01:24:39 Für den Tactical, er hat den Tracker Dart. Das kann man auf jeden Fall beheben, und wird auf jeden Fall beheben, die sich in den Fall beheben. Die Beheben, die Beheben haben einen Trailer, das kann man durch die Wallen sehen, und wird auch ein Marker, das zeigt die Distanz der Angelegenheit. Für den Ultimate, wir haben den Stinger Bolt. Das ist eine große Arrow, die sich in den Boden beheben, und auf den Boden beheben. Nach einer Shorten Charge-Up, es wird ein Blast, das die Angelegenheit verheben, und die Angelegenheit verheben, die Angelegenheit verheben.
01:25:06 Sparrow will be unlocked temporarily for free at the start of the season so everyone will get a chance to play him and he'll be yours to keep if you can beat a set of challenges. Jump in and try Sparrow in our newest season, Prodigy.
01:25:44 Sony Inzone, the official monitor of the Apex Legends Global Series.
01:25:59 All right, Graceful, we are back with game number two now done. Let's dive a little bit into that endgame before we kick off game three, because while I'm itching to see some more Stormpoint, that was a huge game out of Na'Vi. Yeah, I mean, huge game indeed. I think that some of these teams have been, especially Na'Vi, has been showing the proactivity that we're looking to see from a team that is contending for, you know, LAN, even like LAN presence in finals for sure, and even potentially winning, as we have seen as well, that they are showing.
01:26:28 ...dominance.
01:26:54 Ich meine, Ronin hat eine Steller-Defense gestellt und das war nicht nur gegen Nabi, es war auch gegen Zero Tenacity. Das ist ein Team, das als ich, was ich wundere, was der Tag aussieht, was der Tag aussieht, ist es wirklich, wirklich gut für Nummer 8. Ja, definitiv, leading up zu diesem Punkt, ich glaube nicht, dass jemand mit, you know, die Changes und wie sie haben so weit gemacht haben.
01:27:20 Remains to be seen in Vaude Review later on if what was the reasoning for this success. But as we can see, though, they are being proactive when they have to and also playing defensively properly when they have to. And if they can keep this form up, really good series to be seen. And a real, real quick thing, Graceful. I knew you'll accept my inner nerd out here. We talked about with Genome in the middle of that game how Navi were making really good use of Uchako on Alter and sending him forward to place a Void Nexus.
01:27:49 and then continue into the next spot. I just really want to appreciate that while Zipline, Mafia, and Zero Tenacity were fighting on low ground, that's exactly what Navi did once again, putting enough pressure on Ronin that Uchako was able to run past them on Alter and put down a Void Nexus to get everybody onto the pylon side of this big Jurassic fence. It was...
01:28:10 A very small play, it didn't result in a lot, there weren't any crazy kills off of it, but when you think about the positioning and how much that matters, that's really what won Navi this game. The thing is that people tend to only focus about huge plays, like, you know, I won with three or one mag, somebody opened a fight, right, and engages.
01:28:28 Aber wenn wir über das Thema sprechen, das ist für mich ein Objektiv. Er ist objektiv zu sehen, dass das was wir tun müssen, und er ist solely auf das Focusing. Und wenn man Pläts wie das, wir opten für Positioning und Micro und Macro sind, das ist wie man gewinnen, wirklich. Otherwise, Jerm würde sich auf eine Seite befinden, das wäre unfavorable für den Endgame.
01:28:46 Ja, wir sahen es unfavorable, sogar für Ronin, die die Spielspot ist early. Aber wir werden keine Spiels wie das in Game 3 sehen, oder nicht in genau das gleiche Weise, weil wir haben Alter aus dem Legend Pool genommen haben. So keine Ash, keine Alter. Wenn du willst, musst du deine Team spielen, musst du wahrscheinlich Wraith oder Pathfinder spielen. Niemand ist wirklich auf die Octane dieses Tages.
01:29:08 Ja, ich meine, das ist natürlich für dich. Aber ich persönlich denke, dass viele Leute, wenn ihr nach Hause seid, ihr seid glücklich zu sehen, dass Ache ist weg. In eurem Rankings, ihr habt ihr geholfen, bei den Snares und Ache CP für Tage und auch, wenn du ein Team aufgarten kannst, wenn du ein Team aufgarten kannst, wenn du ein Team aufgarten kannst, du ein Team aufgarten kannst und ihr seid wieder. Jetzt, sie sind beide weggegangen. Wir gehen ein bisschen mehr zurück zu den Fundamenten, wo, wenn du ein Team aufgarten kannst, niemand kann wirklich zu retten. Und wenn du...
01:29:37 Ja, ich meine, du brauchst viel mehr Gedanken auf diese Engagements. Nicht nur in der Zeit, sondern auch in der anderen Gruppen, die sich auch auf die Gapen sehen kann.
01:30:00 Unless, of course, you got Wraith. But even then, even then, then it's time. And with Pathfinder and Sightlines, it's a whole, there's trade-offs. And Navi will be making use of those specifically by choosing the Wraith adaptation. Uchako gonna be on that. A big team mover.
01:30:15 So that seems to be what Navi are looking for the most benefit. When we talked about the Ash ban in Game 1, we did say, you know, some people are looking to Ash as a big skirmisher to get in your face, and some people are looking to her as a tool to move the team. It's very clear that Navi are seeing the Ash role as being a team mover one rather than a get in your face skirmisher one.
01:30:36 Oh yeah, most definitely. I think that both Rafe and Ash are capable of doing both, which is why it's so easy to slot one into the other if one of them gets banned. I think that role has been played by him phenomenally so far, and in the past as of recent with all of their success, that they're opting to stay to the same roles, essentially, regardless of what Legend that may be. Speaking of Legends, a quick update for you.
01:30:59 Ballistic is the most picked Legend in match number 3, so we won't be seeing any Ballistic, Alter, or Ashe after this game, which means E-District will not see any of those Legends. Yeah, I mean, that's also one of those picks right now that, you know, you get hit by one of his Qs immediately, you're not going to win a 1v1 against that character unless that character is low swinging you. It's definitely one of the characters that excels at helping the team perform in fights where you might not have been a strong fighting team.
01:31:26 Aber wenn du nicht eine Strong-Fighting-Team hast, Teams tend zu opt for playing Zone instead. Und diese Zone ist mehr auf der Wall. Eine dieser Zone könnte sogar mehr... Was wir haben viel gesehen hat, ist, dass Seer Tenacity gerade bei der Zip House ist. Aber, als ich seitdem, habe ich viele Ranked als auch. Zone könnte auch auf der Nord-Side sein, wie wir vorher schon sehen. Ich bin wirklich glücklich mit diesen Zone, aber wenn es um 3, wo wir eine Throw in der letzten Land waren, dann war es viel Spaß.
01:31:54 I think we'll see the same type of endings where teams will be opting to play either Zip House building and or tree area and then slowly mesh around the wall. I was definitely staring hard at Ronin because they were going up to the Zip House and was like, are they gonna oob Zero Tenacity two minutes into the game? Fortunately, they don't, but they're... they...
01:32:13 Ich habe es geschafft, nicht jeder Team hat sich so gut gemacht. Es ist schwierig für Mine, besonders als Dragons popt die Tempest. Sie wissen, dass es ein paar mehr Kills zu collect werden. Tide wird getrennt, so ein ganzes Turn-Arund auf dem anderen Seite. Mines werden nicht mehr able, aber Dragons werden weitergelebt, aber sie werden weitergelebt, um die Tres zu spielen. Und mit der Watssinn, Sie können nicht auf die Tres für eine lange Zeit halten.
01:32:38 Ja, ich meine, das ist ein tolles Engage, weil ich immer sagen würde, wenn Sie wollen, Sie wollen so early wie möglich, bevor die Teams haben ihren Weg gemacht. Sie haben sie auf den Macro gemacht und haben eine Kill für sie. Sie sind wirklich froh. Jetzt wissen Sie auch, wenn die Team nicht mehr Reset wird, das ist eine einfache Spielmöglichkeit später. Denn jetzt wissen Sie, wenn Sie jemanden haben, das ist ein Duel und wir können einen Duel machen. Das ist eine Information. Ein paar andere Teams werden...
01:33:03 10k in a bit of a pinch right now we saw cyber cap the kings of barometer wreak havoc earlier his mind will go down dragons then begin just a few minutes ago
01:33:16 Ja, ich meine, viele Teams sind ein bisschen schneller. 10K so far, heute haben sie wirklich gut gespielt, eigentlich. Sie sind adaptiert zu den Zones. Sie haben noch nicht viel, wie, Pop-Off-Games yet. Aber sie haben sich gewohnt, dass sie gewohnt, in die Spots zu haben, wo sie sind, dass sie gewohnt werden. Jetzt kommt die Frage, ob das 1-Fight macht es, wo sie eine bessere Spots in Late-Games können, wo sie das in der Lage sind, oder nicht? Aber wenn Sie sich in die Top-5-Szenario-Positionen...
01:33:44 In every game, at some point you're gonna close out a game. Aurora just need to make it there. It's been a very difficult day for them. And while they are a team to watch, haven't quite managed to execute on making it into the top couple of squads. Look at Cybercats. Oh no, it's a feline fight! Cat versus Cybercat! And Lonzi's already down. This does not bode well. I don't condone this kind of engagement.
01:34:13 I mean, Kat, though, is doing really good. Taxington back on the roster again after having some questionable, you know, moments where they parted for a brief period. Now they're back together and he's already putting up numbers again. I think that they're able to convert off of this loot, maybe get a better positioning later on, but they are quite a bit away from the zone, as we saw earlier, moving more towards the wall side. Triple blue right now. I think they can opt to get purple, maybe get a mid-timing speed in and see if they can fight for something.
01:34:42 Especially having collected the Care Package, being one of our squads to run Sparrow. I mean Cat and Cybercats both are teams that like to experiment with what sorts of compositions they can run for what sort of outcome. Cybercats famously doing that in EMEA. And this game, this split, Graceful, it's been the time for squads like that. 14 different team comps in this game. 14 different team comps and it's only game number three, only two Legends banned.
01:35:11 Ja, ich bin so glücklich, dass die Leute zu spielen können. Auch Pathfinder kommt nach dem Buffs wieder zurück, zu sehen, dass die Leute zu versuchen, verschiedene Compte zu versuchen. Und es ist nicht nur ein, zwei verschiedene Compte. Du hast eine Edge-Comp, oder du hast eine eigene Compte. Aber jetzt hast du 14 verschiedene Compte. Das ist wunderbar. Ich denke, das zeigt, wie viel Arbeit ist.
01:35:32 Die Devs und die Ballanzing-Team haben in den Spiel gemacht, um es zu machen, als es vorhin war, wenn es nicht so gut geht. Oder wenn es Khaustik war, wenn du nicht dein eigenes Khaustik war, wenn du nicht dein eigenes Khaustik wirst, dann wird die Havoc auf alle anderen. Jetzt haben wir verschiedene Stylen, die sind vorhanden, und du kannst dein Team machen, wie du das Spiel möchtest. Und ich denke, das ist quasi schon passiert in vielen Teams, in denen Komfort Picks ist eine reale Sache.
01:36:01 I'm watching a lot of teams in today's games run Catalyst into endgames as well, something that when Catalyst was first introduced was absolutely a necessity, and now you are seeing some squads opt into it, and it really gives endgame tools to the teams that, I almost want to say itemize into it, that really...
01:36:20 I mean, hey, we saw the earlier zone where it pulled back to middle a little bit and then it bounced back into downbeat. This could be a bouncer again and, you know, could throw people off.
01:36:47 Aber die Sache, die ich für sie speziell bin, ist die E-Side. Du hast zwei Teams auf dem Röhmung und vielleicht 10k, und vielleicht sogar einen anderen Team, wenn sie für den anderen Team optieren. Wie wir vorher sahen, fünf Teams für den zweiten Röhmung in der zweiten Röhmung. Und wenn du das Moment hast, wo jeder auf den gleichen Röhmung ist, dann kann man das gleiche. Stinger Bolt aus.
01:37:07 Und Nemesis, auf der Lowground, haben sie zu Expendet Catalyst, in der Mid-Games, um sich selbst zu leben. Auch dann ist es ein bisschen riskiert, als Remix Powers könnte es gezwungen auf, an any second zu machen. Aber Team Nemesis wird noch immer wieder auf der Lowground, nicht in der idealen Position. Und Zuni wird nicht mehr tun, bevor die Shields getroffen sind.
01:37:28 Ja, ich meine, es ist ein wunderschön Moment. Wenn du Weapons hast, wenn du ein Team Ballistik ultierst, und du immediately hast einen D.V.O. in deinem Gesicht, das ist schrecklich. Du musst, dass du nicht überraschst. Aber jetzt ist er noch ein D.V.A. ein D.V.A. als wir versuchen, Dinge zu machen.
01:37:49 In the middle of Prowler Caves will go down. SJP2 making short work of the fight as Trix up on high ground in Cascade is dancing with the Devotion. No turbo charge here. It is all positioning, all play from the high ground. Black Venom going to keep this safe for Trix, but both squads going to have to move out of Cascade in a few moments.
01:38:12 Ja, ich meine, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen, wir sehen,
01:38:37 Black Venom and Shrix go ahead first before Tryhard Thor, as the two mobile, safer Legends, they make space for the Watson, who is otherwise immobile and vulnerable, to cross without getting suddenly beamed from behind. So really nice play by Atlas, just keeping in mind the weaknesses and strengths of their composition, but now the holdout is still theirs to deal with. Out comes the Tempest. Atlas do not have one to respond with, so they've got to let this go. Looking to take the fight still from high.
01:39:06 ... ... ... ... ...
01:39:29 I mean, they...
01:39:41 We saw a huge play there from Trix going ahead, but then none of them looked back. They triple-crossed and they didn't engage on that. And then the other teams went forward and then they tried to TP and then he got punished. A lot of proactiveness and that's exactly what we need to see from these teams to make plays to get more KP, to get that side 3, which every team wants because when you have a side 3, you can make plays happen. And now Kat have entered this as well. And that vulnerable Watson that we talked about earlier will be taken down.
01:40:10 I mean Nemesis responding well to the scenarios twice actually where they were at a disadvantage for a brief moment but turned it on his head.
01:40:39 und sicher, dass wir nicht nur eine bessere Positionierung haben, sondern wir haben eine Seite, sondern wir haben Kp. Ich bin sehr glücklich mit dem Spiel, und ich denke, dass sie definitiv sind. 10K, Slowplay für sie. Es ist eine IGL-Difference hier, ehrlich gesagt. Wenn ich diese Zone schaue, ich kann nicht warten, aber wenn 10K erwartet, das wirklich gut ist, das ist einfach eine Situation, wo...
01:41:02 Oh, we've got a pretty good prediction coming out of our two experienced IGLs in EBA. Yeah, definitely a good prediction from me. I said we've got a pool door potentially. Yes, Ranked has showed effort. Now, definitely, this is one of those zones that I think a lot of teams are happy to fight. Nemesis, speaking of fighting already, up on the next one, on the team by three, which I believe was war as they are going down. Sherpa goes down right now as he is Hyesha singing with the Devo. Nice grenade.
01:41:31 Was war es? A Million Damage? Kaisha eating that to the face right now as a couple of grenades connect with him, but Team Nemesis have their reset. I say that, Kaisha eats one too many. I know they look delicious, but it's not cake. It's not cake, bro. They're gonna get run at right now. Legion hoping to finish off Nemesis, although Legion are on blue shields and Sampeh is almost down. Great defense by Team Nemesis, who again are playing proactively and so aggressively in these endgames.
01:41:59 Ja, aber ich denke, sie sind jetzt auch von hinten geholfen. Sie haben den besten Platz für die ganze Team gespielt. Sie haben nicht verlassen, sondern sie haben einen Team verloren. Und jetzt sind sie in No-Mans-Land, wo sie einfach auf vier oder drei Teams sind. Und jetzt haben sie zu gehen. Das war definitiv ein Missplay, glaube ich.
01:42:19 Let's see if they can turn this around, potentially. It's all about timing and seeing who starts the fight first. Nemesis has lost another, so Kat also focusing on Nemesis, and it feels unfair. First it's Legion who sent them, then it's Nemesis who gets just absorbed push after push after push. Even the Zipline Mafia contributed to that one. Team War will go down as an extra casualty, but Legion, who like we said, dipped down onto the low ground, came back to finish off Nemesis, now eat a Stingerbolt directly to the face, and have a whole...
01:42:47 Two squads facing them down. We've got Cat on the low ground and Zipline Mafia on the high ground. It'll be a miracle if we see Legion Gaming survive the next two minutes. Yeah, I think one of them made it to the corner where the zone is in and they're just sitting there right now, but actually two members of Cat went down to nades and they're getting hovered right now by Zipline. Oh no.
01:43:13 Ich glaube, sie versuchen zu überleben, aber wenn du zwei Teams angering dich von anderen Seiten anstattst, dann wird es ein schweres Reset für sie. Legion hat eine Re-Spawn als auch. Ich meine, aus geht die letzte Kategorin, und ich bin nicht mit dem. Dragons will mit ihren Enden als 10k, ein bisschen mehr Platz in der Wall. Ja, ich bin ja.
01:43:35 Ich meine, die größte Sache ist, dass wir sie auf der anderen Seite haben, sie spielen Kripto-Dia. Sie wissen, wie easy es ist, dass sie eine Drone auf dem EMP aufzunehmen und dann senden sie es? Ich würde gerne sehen, dass das auf einem Reflip, weil ich liebe EMP-Plates, und wenn man ein Team wie ein Team wie das, dann fühlt es gut. ZipLine Mafia. Sie hatten eine Chance für Katte vorhin. Sie sind jetzt auf Legion, die haben sich jetzt aus dem Tor gemacht.
01:43:58 It is a miracle that Legion are still alive at this point in the game, but Zipline Mafia, it's now their responsibility to clear their backs as the zone is gonna push in in 10 seconds, leaving neither team safe. Zipline Mafia can't rotate with Legion at their back. They may not be able to rotate at all, as Cat will eventually be cleaned up. The Zipline Mafia putting up the defense of their lives on the low ground with WeQ facing off against Miss Cam. This could be the time Miss Cam gonna fall. Zipline Mafia.
01:44:28 Oh! Zipline Mafia!
01:44:57 mit der Search, die du schon erwähnt hast. Die Cyberkats wurden durchgeführt, aber auch schon jetzt, die Cyberkats sind, könnte in großartig sein. Die Cyberkats könnten in großartig sein. Füda, Bo? Ich habe eine Connecte, aber ich habe nicht eine Connecte für die Blaschi-Damage. Das ist genug für Zero-Tenacität, und das ist genug für Zero-Tenacität, um ein bisschen zu verabschieden für die Squad. Bo-Check, Peacekeeper, Nuthi!
01:45:22 Das ist der Fall, aber der Zierer Tenacity, das ist ein Faktor von Na'Vi, das ist ein Faktor von Na'Vi, das ist ein Faktor von Na'Vi, das ist ein Faktor von Na'Vi, das ist ein Faktor von Na'Vi, das ist ein Faktor von Na'Vi, das ist ein Faktor von Na'Vi, das ist ein Faktor von Na'Vi, das ist ein Faktor von Na'Vi, das ist ein Faktor von Na'Vi, das ist ein Faktor von Na'Vi, das ist ein Faktor von Na'Vi, das ist ein Faktor von Na'Vi, das ist ein Faktor von Na'Vi, das ist ein Faktor von Na'Vi, das ist ein Faktor von Na'Vi, das ist ein Faktor von Na'Vi, das ist ein Faktor von Na'Vi, das ist ein Faktor von Na'Vi, das ist
01:45:50 Und tatsächlich, das funktioniert wirklich gut für sie mit dem Instant-Watson-Setup. 10k share space mit Ronin.
01:46:17 Es ist ein Spiel, aber ich bin ein großer Fan von Blind-Pushen, wie wir die Zippen haben, wie wir die Zippen haben, wie wir die Zippen haben. Wenn du ein Blind-Push hast, wenn du ein Blind-Push hast, dann entweder die Team, wenn du die Team entdeckt hast, dann entweder die Team, das hat die Spot, oder worst-case scenario, wenn du die Team wirst, wenn du die Team wirst, wenn du die Team wirst, wenn du die Team wirst, wenn du die Team wirst, wenn du die Team wirst, wenn du die Team wirst, wenn du die Team wirst, wenn du die Team wirst, wenn du die Team wirst, wenn du die Team wirst, wenn du die Team wirst, wenn du die Team wirst, wenn du die Team wirst, wenn du die Team wirst, wenn du die Team wirst, wenn du die Team wirst.
01:46:44 He's making a difference for Zero Tenacity. Zero Tenacity, absolutely the squad to watch right now, by the way. They have had two big games, neither of which resulted in wins, but both of which resulted in them getting top damage in the lobby. This could be yet another one. Yeah, I mean, they're in a super good spot right now. They did fight for this, and they got several KPs along the way. Now, if they can just hold backside so that they don't get dropped on, they will have more space to poke their heads out and potentially get even more kills.
01:47:12 Der nächste Spiel ist slow, Ronin's High Ground Challenge. Remember, they had 10km underneath them.
01:47:17 Bit of a grudge match between these two squads, especially given the whole nasty thing that happened this week, but I don't see 10k pushing up to finish this off when SJP2 are basically right here to do it for you. Nate, under an incredible amount of harassment right now, and it's only going to get worse. This push from Aurora may be a little bit ill-advised, if I'm honest with you, but it was funny to watch. Ronin will end up falling. SJP2, now facing down 10k, immediately are going to disengage, playing the outside of the wall, playing where it's safe.
01:47:47 Nobody else is here. SJP2 just have to hold on to territory.
01:48:15 Zero Tenacity up to the northern side, but at the end of the day, we're not seeing any, you know, we're not seeing a full send just yet. It'll be at least another 50, 60 seconds, I would think. Like you say, it's not yet. Part of the other question you posed is who? Who's going to do it? To that, I'd posit the answer, probably Zero Tenacity. Probably them. They've been playing so aggressively today that, if anything,
01:48:43 Oh mein Gott, Neski geht über die Wall! Neski, kann er wieder über die Wall? Ja, ich kann. Das war, das war, uh, kalkuliert. Ich bin nicht zu lief, er hat es geschafft, er hat ein Krypto-Drone-Dat, was du mit? Ja, Kashera, definitiv mit der Versioning-Responsibilität, Catwall's gone down, und es ist Zero Tenacity, er will push-up first, Buda wird getfried, und das ist bad news für Zero Tenacity. SJP2.
01:49:11 Defending well and not overextending to finish off Zero Tenacity. Instead, letting 10k do some of that work. Catalyst Wall is going to go down. Seven drops right next to Zero Tenacity. And 10k play quiet as well. They don't want to take it until second is guaranteed. And now that it is, they push up. First member going to be knocked. And 10k play the patient game. And they end up scoring big in game number three.
01:49:37 10k, man, play that patiently, and then they won the game. I'm a little bit, you know, flustered to see that Sirton Athlete made that play across the side, even though there was a Catwall in play. It is definitely hard to make that decision and not get third, I would say, because you're fighting, you're running into a team that's looking at you, whilst another team could wrap you. You either close that fight in five seconds or you get thirded, and they, you know, ended up falling down. That was a little bit rough, but it ended up working earlier when they were proactive under the bridge.
01:50:06 KP in a spot, but at the end, they fall. It's one of those things that, especially with a squad like Zero Tenacity, I'm expecting it. It's par for the course. Is it perfect Apex Legends to go for that push? No. Is it exactly what you'd expect from a team that has been running at people all day? Yeah. I'd actually put SJP2 in a really similar...
01:50:31 Ja, ich meine...
01:50:50 Wenn du eine Seite hast, und du kannst nur auf jeden Fall schießen, Kills wird fallen. SCP-2 hat sich sehr stark in diesem Spiel, wo du exzellst und kämpfst, du solltest du mit dem Spiel gehen. Even wenn Serio Tenacity fällt auf 3.
01:51:06 Sie sind pro-Aktiv und wenn Sie 70-80% von den Fällen fallen, dann geht es nicht mehr, denn Sie sind immer noch die Räckung. Und wir sprechen immer noch, dass es so viele Punkte aus den sechs Spielen geht, und das ist was wir hier für.
01:51:27 ...were, bis zu diesem Zeitpunkt, die die meisten damage in der Lobby in diesem Spiel. Jetzt, SJP2 holdt das Titel. Mit einem vielen Dank zu Kurti für das, die in diesem Spiel krank 2k in diesem Spiel. SJP2 getötetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetetet
01:51:56 10k in fact the only team to have won a game that's even in top three right now cheetah what do you make of that
01:52:07 Yeah, exactly. The fact that we've got a couple of these teams that are just sitting there at the top dominating, and one of them is Zero Tenacity, who certainly wasn't on my radar to be that consistent and doing that well today is kind of crazy. As you were saying, massive damage every single game. Actually, you know what's funny? You would just say they did the best damage every game. Almost, almost, in game one, sorry, in game two, it was actually...
Gastkommentator Aku analysiert aggressive Team-Kompositionen und Strategien
01:52:35
01:52:35 This is the weirdest stat I've ever seen. The 12th placed team, Kat, did the most damage in the lobby. What? Okay, that is a rabbit hole for me to go down. Perhaps another time. Because we've got a guest to give us a little bit more insight, perhaps some takes on these games. Aku.
01:52:56 Welcome to the broadcast. For those of you unfamiliar, you may not have seen his face before, you've certainly seen his gameplay as he's on Maus and doing quite well, might I add. So I'm glad we got you in here for some insight as we approach Regional Finals. Thank you for having me. I only can say thank you for having me. Thank you. I'm very hyped to say something.
01:53:18 Thank you for joining us. The first thing that I'll have you say, like I said, a little bit of insight for some of our teams. I was actually noticing that specifically for Malz, last week was the first week throughout all the season that you guys even dipped out of top 10 at all. Outside of that, you guys have been placing exceptionally well match day over match day. So as we approach the end of the season, as that gets more difficult for teams and we're seeing a lot of kill heavy teams dominate the leaderboard.
01:53:46 How would you go about, you know, counteracting that in playing your best game to end up in at least the top half of the leaderboard? Yeah, so at the start, we played Newcastle, but we saw that the EU was very aggro, like in Pro League, so we swapped to Crypto to, like, just fight against it to hold more space, like aggro, and it worked pretty well. We were, like, obviously going for a Russell swap, so that was, like, making it a bit harder, but it's obviously not an excuse for it. But, yeah.
01:54:14 Es war sehr schwer, als eine Zone-team, zu fighten gegen diese Edge-teams, weil die comms, die die Edge-teams spielen, sind sehr, sehr aggro in EU. Es war sehr schwer, aber wir managed, glaube ich, es gut. Und ja, ich denke, das ist alles, was ich sagen.
01:54:32 Okay, well, you're talking about some of the aggressive team compositions that you've seen being run in Emiya there, Aku. Let's put aside some of the considerations around ring consoles and whatever else. What is, if you were just wanting to be a team who literally only just wanted to win fights, what do you think is the most aggressive composition you could possibly cook up at the moment? Okay, so the most...
01:55:01 Aggressive Comp, I think, is definitely Ballistic in it. And Fuse or Crypto, either one of that. And then Ash or Alter. I would go probably with Alter, Fuse, Ballistic. I think this is one of the most aggressive. Because you can, like, with Purple Perk on Alter, you can explode on a team every time when you queue on them or something like that. It's so easy. And with Ballistic having the extra speed boost and...
01:55:29 Es ist so schwer. Es ist so aggressiv. Du kannst nichts gegen das. Es ist kind of crazy. Es fühlt sich so viele Optionen jetzt. Auch Sparrow ist ein Recon Charakter. Ihr Ultimate ist tatsächlich so ein sehr aggressiv. Ja, das Ultimate ist sehr, sehr gut als auch. Es bringt eine neue, fresh Air into es. Most of die Krypto-Player sind nicht mehr stuck. Sie sind in Prison, kind of.
01:55:57 die Krypto-Player sind, aber jetzt haben wir mehr freie Erd mit Sparrow, weil du kannst eigentlich in der Kampf schießen, und die Sparrow-Walt und alles ist sehr gut als auch. Das ist auch sehr aggro. Wir haben ein paar andere Sachen. Wir sehen viele verschiedene Compositions introduced, und wir haben es mit Graceful gesprochen.
01:56:18 In this last game, 14 different compositions over the course of the match. And I want to take a look at the final circle and see how that played out, how it impacted. I mean, we saw Watts in this final circle. What were your thoughts as we approached the endgame, Aku?
01:56:34 Das Z10 ist wirklich verrückt in der Endgame, cleaning up die Sites und Looking-For-Spot war sehr gut, aber SJP2 auch. Cleaning up ihre Sites, all die Space Control auf der right Seite des Zones war sehr gut für sie. Und die meisten der Zeit, Z10 einfach ran at die Leute und absolut nuked sie. Same mit SJP2, sie hat all die Space zu spielen, so das war sehr gut für sie. Und 10k auch.
01:57:01 Ich glaube, es war ein paar Kills, aber ich glaube, es war ein paar Kills. Aber sie haben alle sehr gut gespielt.
01:57:12 Ja, ich meine, es war wirklich... Es war lustig zu sehen, Teng Kango zu sehen. Ich glaube, wenn Sie zwei spielen wollen, dann wir es passieren. Das ist eine frei-Win für uns an SJP2. Ich meine, Sie haben sich gegen sie gespielt. Sie lief zu kämpfen fast als E10. Ja, sie sind definitiv. SJP2 ist definitiv ein EGO-team.
01:57:36 Okay, so my hat talk for today is that some of the pro teams don't actually know how to fix issues within the team.
01:58:06 After losing a fight, they often focus on the wrong things, trying to fix random moments that happen during the fight. But they never address the core problems of it. Was the fight good? Is the fight giving us any reward, like a better spot or loot we need? Sometimes they even drop a player in an attempt to fix the issue, but most of the time that doesn't solve anything at all. They end up making the same mistakes over and over again, because they're not looking at the core problem they're facing. It's bad for the team, unfair for the player who gets dropped because of it. And because we have that roster...
01:58:35 Ich glaube, dass ich mich nicht mehr in die Verteilung habe. Ich glaube, dass ich mich nicht mehr in die Verteilung habe. Ich glaube, dass ich mich nicht mehr in die Verteilung habe. Ich glaube, dass ich mich nicht mehr in die Verteilung habe.
01:58:59 Take a look at the macro as well and see like, you know, why are you in that position to start with? Not just like, you know, why did this one player like peak a little bit too much and then get shot and go down, right? Because that's a very end of the line problem. You know, I think Akku's really, he's hit the nail on the head there.
01:59:21 Ja, Graceville, du warst schon über die Objektivität als auch. Und ich denke, du resonierst mit dem, nicht nur, dass es dieses Kampf gut geht, aber warum wir es? Ja, definitiv. Ich glaube, und ich glaube, zu einem gewissen. Ich fühle mich, die Teams wissen, dass, you know, ein paar of diese Teams, depending auf dem wir sprechen, bottom 10 in Pro League, oder wir sprechen, lower oder höher.
01:59:44 Sie wissen, welche Fights zu nehmen. Wenn Sie eine Edge-team wissen, welche Fights und Timing Sie müssen. Aber viele Teams enden auf Dwellen auf smaller Sachen, wie, oh, Sie sollten mit mir gewonnen haben, wir haben nicht gewonnen. Oh, Sie haben nicht gewonnen. Oh, Sie haben nicht gewonnen. Oh, Sie haben nicht gewonnen, Ihre Abilität. Wenn Sie die Objektive sagen, hey, Sie müssen wir überhaupt nicht gewonnen haben. Und Teams tenden zu focussen auf andere Sachen. Teams, die Frag-heavy tenden zu sehen, eher Tunnel-Vision auf die Fighting, während Teams, die einfach nur auf Macro machen.
02:00:09 Fokus mainly on the objective of was this even a good fight? Or should we just have, you know, like we saw Na'Vi, we shouldn't even have fought, we just ran through on the first opening we had. And we see the teams that do have these potentially good volume versions and maybe coaching as well, do better. And that's really good to see. And yeah, I mean...
02:00:26 A little bit, yes, a little bit, no. Sometimes good, sometimes bad. I would posit that's a good thing, right? It's hot takes, right? So if it's a little bit of agreement, a little bit of disagreement, I'm going to say that's a win for the hot take and a win for having Aku on the broadcast. Thank you so much for joining us, Aku. Thank you for having me. It was myself. Thank you. Well, I can't wait to have him back again, be it...
02:00:49 Yeah, I mean, you have to just refocus, even, you know, if you had a good game, maybe that's a breather you take, you know, take a little snack break, take a little talk break, if you're feeling good.
02:01:17 cool your head a little bit and then if you're not feeling that good cool your head a little bit regardless that reset is super important and they need to focus on that because if you had a not stellar performance so far we're about to hit the point where you really gotta make some progress
Strategische Anpassungen und Legend Picks in der ALGS Pro League
02:01:33
02:01:33 I'll be honest with you, it took me about 20 seconds to recover from you saying snack and just refocus on Apex Legends. The real meal in front of us is going to be this first game on E-District, however. 10k, again, squad to watch, landing smack dab in the middle of the map. Big, uh...
02:01:52 Bis zum nächsten Mal, wie immer, auf E-District, auf der southeastern Seite des Mappen, wo wir Atlas und Kat landen neben uns. Es gibt viel Potenzial für Fights. Despite der Fakt, dass Kat nicht mehr so agressiv sind, ich definitiv würde Kategorize Atlas und ihren Weg zu Pro-League als sehr agressiv sind. Und jetzt ist es Zeit, um die Punkte zu bekommen.
02:02:15 Ja, definitiv. Ich denke, wir haben schon ein paar Schritte, in generell, wo Teams, die nicht so agressiv sind, und das passiert. Wenn man später in ProLeague geht, jetzt haben wir Teams, die zu tun oder sterben müssen, Leute bekommen... Ein sehr common ist, hey, Leute, es ist...
02:02:33 We're looking at the leaderboard, some of these teams have to get bangers, and they will make haymaker plays, and we have to be aware of that. So what that ends up doing is that teams that might be aggressive normally are a little bit more passive, and that could be to their detriment, or that could work out for them as well, because we have seen a lot of aggressive and proactive plays work out in the long run so far, but also a little bit of defensive play, like we saw SCP-2 hold off there at the end, and we saw before as well, you know, Ronin hold off for the second place earlier on as well.
02:03:02 wo Defensive Bay funktioniert in some respects. And one of the large shifts we could see...
02:03:08 ist, dass Ballistik jetzt nicht mehr playable ist. Ballistik ist für den Rest der Serie. Und das könnte auch ein bisschen die Aggression von SQUADS haben. Wir haben Alter, wir haben Ashe, wir haben Ballistik, wir haben Ballistik. Und das sind drei große Spielmöglichkeiten, die man kann in drei totally differenten Scenarios machen. Als wir weitergehen, diese Tools, ein bisschen Aggression also gets...
02:03:35 Maybe not even dampened, but reshaped into a different sort of format that teams need to be able to make use of. We're seeing a lot of Fuse picked up this game. Sparrow in the Ultimate, also a big tool that you can make use of. So different teams are going to find different answers as we go on. But in large part, the answer this game has been Fuse. And that aggressive legend is going to be the most picked in this game. And that means that it's the banned legend for next game.
02:04:03 Ja, ich meine, die Leute versuchen nicht zu lassen, die Gas Petal zu lassen, weil wenn man die drei der größten Aggressiv-Legenden aktuell in der Meta hat, Deactivated wird, dann wird es versuchen, wenn die Aggressiv-Nesse funktioniert für dich, du wirst nicht mehr lassen, weil das funktioniert für dich. Aber wenn du nicht die Person bist, dann bist du wirklich glücklich, weil du denkst, hey, wir kämpften mit dem Kampf, jetzt können wir eine mehr...
02:04:29 Solid, slow, maybe, you know, triple swingy comp rather than one guy making plays on their own and that could help them. Absolutely, you know, absolutely. And there are squads like, I'm going to draw your attention, like Kat, that are going to do that. They're going to swap in Fuse, they're going to play Pathfinder, they're going to play Bangalore, they're going to say, let's get aggressive. Then there are squads like Ronin that are going to play Mirage Maggy Pathfinder. Totally, totally different Raiden. Dragons, oh, we're not going to rely on the Legend picks, but are just going to go for the rap play.
02:04:58 Hasta la vista, Shex. Ich weiß nicht, ob sie sich mit der ungodlichen Nades hat. Sorry, ich habe vergessen, dass wir so viele Fuse haben. Das ist ein volles Rez, als die Nades gehen auf, auf Totem. Und Dragons, als das Spiel funktioniert für sie, nicht die Kille.
02:05:16 Ich meine, das ist eine große Use von Nades, wie die Utilität in generell. Man kann die Nades auswählen einfach nur durch die Nades aufzunehmen, und wenn sie vollkommit werden, sie vielleicht sogar getötet werden. Dragons sind ein bisschen glücklich mit der Ambush, aber am Ende der Zeit, beide Teams leben und sie können mehr Plätze in der Zukunft machen.
02:05:33 Ja, und beide Teams haben es gut gespielt. Totem ist sofort auf die Reset, wunderschöne, dass sie die kleine Utilität haben, so weit zu verhindern, um sich selbst zu leben. Das ist ein Heads-Up. Du bist nicht auf die Ressourcen für die Endgame, du bist auf die EMPs für die EMPs. V.C.G.O. Get EMP'ed.
Taktische Manöver und Team-Dynamiken im Apex Legends Wettbewerb
02:05:52
02:05:52 Looking for their entrance into the fight, but seems to be going all right up against the Cybercats. Ilanzi on the high ground is going to be forcing people down as Noto and Kiner both fall. Azus follows up to this and is going to be taken down himself. So a bit of a trade. Ilanzi...
02:06:09 Holding things over for the cybercats does get hit shoots tear on the back but gets shot himself That's a double angle onto the cybercats and a triple wipe onto them as VCGO turn that fight around give him the old Uno reverse card That wasn't an O for me as in wow that was an O for me as in yeesh That was very sloppy because when you have like you know not even just from the POV we saw but when you split dropping one by one going down one by one like when
02:06:36 Wenn die Team einfach nur einen Moment an zu machen, dann ist es fast unmöglich zu machen in der Kampf. Also, du musst sicher, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du, dass du,
02:07:01 Bad positioning, all of a sudden you have Ashe, you no longer have bad positioning. If you have bad aggressiveness tendencies, you know, and now you have Fuse to start helping you open up the aggressiveness, you're gonna feel a little bit more confident. Some teams are definitely taking a hit with that.
02:07:17 We could see Sparrow being the next big legend to actually make up for some of those missteps, giving you so much information and damage and mobility at the same time. What does this guy do? Nemesis being a squad to run that, playing around the outside of Energy Bank. Both squads have actually chosen to move into Energy Bank pretty quickly. It's squads like SJP2, Cat, Atlas, and VCGO, even Ronin up to the north.
02:07:44 Ja, ich glaube, viele Teams sind glücklich mit der Zone zu sein, weil es definitiv eine super Playable Zone ist, aber...
02:08:00 Ja, der squad ist Katt.
02:08:23 Actually, we'll have full information as their initial rotate gets them a survey beacon, revealing that SJP2 and Ronin are the only squads near them, and even Ronin's still pretty far away. This composition, really curious to see how it'll work. I mean, it does speak Edge, it screams Edge even, but does it scream actually endgame win? That's what I'm unsure about with the Maggie and the Mirage. I mean, Mirage is fun, but...
02:08:50 I'd classify myself as a doubter here, Graceful. Yeah, I mean, you could definitely argue for, you know, the support pick, really, right? You could argue, should they have gone live and instead should they have gone something else if they want to keep up that aggressiveness. Even throw in a Gibi in there if you want to keep that aggressiveness to bubble up on people. You know, there's plenty of options there. I completely understand why you would be doing that, but looking at the zone, though, still dead center zone. Nothing will change so far, and even the people on the S...
02:09:19 The edges will be completely safe next zone as well. We won't be seeing any action as of yet. Outside of, if a team gets UAV and they see that they're isolated capable of fighting somebody, should be a rather slow game here.
02:09:33 Katte und Ronin sind vielleicht die nächsten Spiele zu bekommen. Nicht die Schwäden in Zonen, sondern nur diejenigen, weil sie ein bisschen mehr Platz haben können. Remember, SJP2 kann aufzunehmen, so die fight muss man sich aufhören. Und Taking Out Hoodie ist ein tolles Weg zu machen. Ronin hat sofort disengaged ihre Composition, nicht zu sein, sondern zu jumpen auf andere Leute. Und so Katte, gett die Quick-Easy-Pointe aus dem Backen und jetzt den gesamten Norte.
02:10:02 Ja, super toll spot to fight for, that's what I said before, there's like 10 chokes you're fighting for a side. As long as they get to keep a side clear, so that they don't have to look two ways, everybody should be happy with its positioning.
02:10:14 Und jetzt haben sie auch nicht nur die Choke, aber ich glaube, ein ganz einfaches Bildung in die Zone zu sehen. Wir sehen Katz weiterentwickeln an der Galle. Looking für ein paar mehr Kills, Gonext! Das ist jetzt zu machen, und das ist durch die SOUTH-end der E-District. Sie haben Team Zerotenacität in ihrem Weg nach Energiebank. Nicht zu werden in hier, nicht zu werden. Aber als Gonext emerged von es.
02:10:39 Ich habe die Chance, ein paar Potshots von Fokus. Hemlock, Devo für Atenam, ziemlich midrange, aber ich glaube, Devo kann wirklich alles tun, wenn man eine bestimmte Anzahl hat. Oh, Devo ist definitiv close range, 100%. Das ist dein Close- und Midrange, und dann normalerweise, ich bin sicher, dass er für Peter ist, so er würde ihn spielen, Peter, in Devo.
02:11:01 Hamlock will do for now, because he can also poke long range, especially with that 2-4 on it as well. It's a super solid pick. Until you get that, Peter, that everybody's looking for. Yeah, a 30-30. Like you're talking about, two tapping purple shields, it doesn't get old. You get that dopamine every single time. I certainly have this split. Reply Totem.
02:11:23 Still going up against Bragg, it's funny to see these two teams still looking at each other. I mean, they're just, hey dude, don't come back and they're like, are we trying to do it? I think they're just squaring off because right now it's gotten so late that they're both probably paranoid that somebody is close nearby to do something. So unless they get a humongous opening, like, they should not be doing any plays like this.
02:11:47 Even Reply Totem sitting more on the outside, the more exposed side of Energy Bank. Does have to watch multiple angles. Shek's doing a good job of that. Just keeping an eye on the door. Dragons, their door popped open by 10k. We're getting a little antsy after their win just last game. Natsuki pops out to just see what's going on. Ronan get a respawn on Hoodie, which will be really nice. This is technically outside of zone because Ronan, we're playing Eng, so...
02:12:13 Ich glaube nicht, dass jemand kommen will, um sie zu kämpfen, aber sie können noch nicht auf den Weg gehen. Ja, ich glaube, Reset in dieser Zone ist auch. Wir sehen uns in Round 3. Das Zone geht nicht hier. Du kannst nicht mehr schlafen. Du kannst auch mal 3-Ticks-Zone-Klosing. Du kannst immer mit 3-Ticks-Zone-Klosing. Du kannst immer mit dem Reset haben. Aber sie werden noch einen Reset haben, aber sie werden noch zu kämpfen. Ja, Ronan ist in Nord-West, wie wir sehen in der Bildung.
02:12:38 als VCGO und Gonext sind, als Legion alle den Weg zu sowas. Es wird ein schwerer Punkt sein, denn all diese anderen Teams sind jetzt nicht mehr zehn Chokes in Playdea. Es gibt nur drei in der nächsten Zone, wie wir sehen. VCGO ist zwei von ihnen, Gonext will beholden einen. Wir haben nicht viele Optionen mehr. Ja, ich bin wirklich wirklich auf das, und imagine dass wir eine drei-Way-Fight haben. Gonext, Legion und Ronin all seem zu beendet werden, sich zu einem einzigen Punkt, und das ist das...
02:13:06 Yeah, I mean, I think you can still make plays with her. Sure, the spikes won't be as useful.
02:13:35 Aber die Wallen alleine ermöglicht sie zu machen, und ihr Teammitglied auch. Ich denke, sie ist sehr versatil. Und das ist wirklich was ich hoffe, dass alle Legend in einem Moment sein wird. Es ist auch schön, wenn du ein Main bist, zu haben, dass das Legend adaptiert und versatil für jedes Scenario ist. Das macht dich glücklich, wenn du das kannst. Zip-Line Mafia in ein bisschen trouble. Der Fuse, das war so popular in diesem Spiel, hat sich viel value gemacht. Als Ronin macht die Sneak play.
02:14:03 Just all of Ronin.
02:14:25 Like you would say, holding hands and running down GoNext, but not getting the knock here is surprising. Finally, Kinda is going to be taken out. Spot the next of GoNext. Time to walk up though. And this Thermite really burns. Hoodie gonna be taken down. Nate goes next. MG Clutch barely gets to see the other side of the ring. And Ronin, they trade all of that for one point. I mean, that was a good start, but they could not close it out. I think that in general though, a good proactive play.
02:14:54 Could have been a little bit more cleaner because they lost track of him after he dropped down or they got poked essentially in the back while trying to finish him. It was rough.
02:15:03 Ja, ich meine, ja, und wirklich gut play, von Kinda, zu Survive, als lange als er hat er, mit den Catalyst, dann auf den Zip-Line, dann underneath der building. Das Amount der Zeit, das er braucht für den Rest des Squaden, ist der Unterschied zwischen einem einfachen Kampf für Go-Next, oder einem einfachen Kampf für Go-Next, und einem einfachen Kampf für Go-Next. Und jetzt, Go-Next werden jetzt die Rez getrennt. Watching das passieren, auf der Southwestern Seite. Lesion und Atlas in der South, und Zip-Line Mafia mit der God-Zone-Pull, auf dem Topf.
02:15:32 Ja, definitiv ein guter Pull, als jetzt. Atlas, doch, bekommt ein Trade, als Schweihardt Thor geht, als Miskam geht. Looking zu re-Engage, und nein, des-Engage, als Tricks lasst aus. Will Venom bleiben in den Fightern oder nicht, um zu sehen, ob sie etwas machen können. Aber das Rest-Up-Top sollte passieren.
02:15:50 I mean, reset into getting KP as well as walking in with the zone. I think they're in a happy spot.
02:16:18 The more they push off teams, even if they let a team survive on the south side, they know that one side will be weaker and now they're opting to 3v3 straight into the zone for a spot.
02:16:34 Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!
02:17:04 Kat will be king of the hill. That looked a little bit rough for Kat in the beginning, but then Kat returned to fire and got that. Dragons, however, stayed aggressive since that earlier 1 mag by T, as now Swinny spraying down the knockdown shield. Aurora gets eliminated as they get a reset as well. They've been so calm in the beginning, and now they're just going ham.
02:17:28 Der ist einfach nicht. Es gibt keinen Hold Bar. Die Zip-Line-Mafia werden natürlich auf den Zip-Line-Mafia gehen. Die Frage ist jetzt, ob es jemand auf die Zip-Line-Dragons geht? Wir sehen uns das Trend des Aggressions weitergehen. Out geht die Nades. Out kommt die EMP und das wird gleich auf Kashera und 10-K, die nur haben Nasky-Left. Er wird in der Bühne sein. Er wird das Badoff.
02:17:50 Will it save them though? War push up onto Dragons. And we are getting so many squads eliminated at so many different stages, places in this game. Reply Totem going to follow as Team War now hold the center of Energy Bank. And even they are being walked up on by Team Cat. Daxing to take the high ground. Throws out the Stinger Bolt. VCGO go down on the outside. Nemesis take a reset. And War and Cat go at it in the center of Energy Bank.
02:18:17 Action to the left, action to the right. All teams are currently fighting with this zone closing out as the zone is also moving. Still dead center zone, essentially. All the teams on the southwest side, we're talking like four teams, Team Nemesis, Sir Tanasi, Gonax, and I believe 10k was nearby as well, are going to have to collapse here because that bridge is where the zone is in. Nobody wants to keep that up. Miracle, the 10k is still alive as well. Last we saw Nasky was barely keeping it together with the shield bat. Rest of 10k.
02:18:46 I suppose still in this, Kashera even getting a knock right now and eliminating Go Next with the help of Z10. Moving 10k up to top 5, Nemesis looking down at Zero Tenacity and picking up the first knock. Could be the end of yet another squad, but another team joins the fray, it's Team War. Helping play the defense for Zero Tenacity on the low ground and keeping Team Nemesis at bay. 10k will go down, four squads left.
02:19:11 I mean, I think though that Nemesis as well knows where...
02:19:35 ...were they're positioned, and maybe even the fact that they're just a duo as well. Now that you know that, which player are you opting for? Are you trying to win the game, or are you gonna secure points and placement? A lot of teams tend to go for the win, when they should really be opting for the consistent point, because getting those, as you say, two kills plus placement is huge value, compared to potentially getting third with nothing.
02:19:54 Ich denke, wir werden Käpte versuchen zu spielen, das schnell wie möglich. Aber was ich wirklich möchte, ist, dass sie den anderen Team wiederholfen können. Aber als ich gesagt habe, Team Nemesis opts for den zweiten Placement mit den Kills. Das ist ein smartes Spiel, in meiner Meinung nach. Steger-Belt ist gut-timed, Nemesis...
02:20:11 Spending their time here, especially as this Catwall goes down, is very risky. They're going to get swung on. That is crazy play out of Taxington. Nemesis punish it with extreme prejudice. Now making Cat a solo and managing to hold on to this corner. But War, they smell the weakness. Adam going to swing out to the side, keeping the name of Cat alive as Sherb and War flank on both sides. It is a matter of Nemesis committing for it, and they do. But Sherb swoops up, shoots him in the back, taking out Team Nemesis and leaving Cat at second place. They know what's going on.
02:20:40 Scherb knows what's going on. It's a solo against Team Warren. Nobody stands against Team Warren. Game number four.
02:21:09 Forcing them to go for the wipe on the team and just won the game plus got extra KP. That's just the discipline I've been talking about. If you know, and we saw Sherb earlier today when they won that game as well. He didn't swing even though it was a 3v1. And here he is swinging. Calm and collected when he needs to be. Hot and hot-headed and aggressive when he needs to be as well. Really good so far from Sherb.
02:21:29 Yeah, I really like the play. I want to take a look at what this gets, Team Wars. That was not a slow game by any means. 26 points for them off of a 14-kill game. Very nicely done, and the positioning, the game sense in that last bit to send Sherb out really put Nemesis in a tough position, and I feel for them ending up getting third. That's a really rough spot, especially when you know the cat were just a solo. We'll take a look at the stats from this game as well, because Team Nemesis...
02:21:59 Und dann haben wir Team War, die nur 5k verdient.
02:22:09 Ich meine, ja. Ich meine, wir auch sehen Arktik mit 2.8k, ein guter Spieler, als auch. Können Sie einen starken Kursen. Und mit 14 Kurs, Sie werden eine große Werteilung haben, egal was Sie spielen. Sie sind sehr glücklich mit dem, als das sie auf die Leaderboarden schießt. Die 53 totalen Punkte mit 26 Kursen. Ich denke, sie fühlen sich hart. Wenn sie sich auch ein Wurzeln machen können, dann wäre es ein Wurzeln. Das ist ein Wurzeln. 3 Wurzeln?
02:22:33 Ja, Zero Tenacity still hanging on to that lead, but only by 2 points, and it's a 10-point gap between Team War and 10k. As it appears graceful, the teams that like to get aggressive, they're the real winners here in EMEA, at least as of Match 4.
02:22:49 We'll find out if Aggression ends up benefiting squads even more as the day goes on or whether we see 10k start to shoot up and other squads that are more passive. We'll find out after the break.
Top Teams im Fokus: Strategien, Anpassungen und Legend Picks in der ALGS
02:24:48
02:24:48 Sony Inzone, the official monitor of the Apex Legends Global Series.
02:25:04 Well, well, well, we're back. We've got a couple of top dogs here in our race in Emiya. A graceful Zero Tenacity Team War. We've seen them clash in-game. They're also clashing on the leaderboard. Only two points separating the two teams right now. Yeah, I mean, we've seen huge proactive play from both of them. And then we've also seen, you know, 10k as well being consistently in good spots as well.
02:25:31 Different places and all thriving. Very happy to see that.
02:25:35 Yeah, I mean, let's have a look at the final circle from that previous game here. Talk us through this one, Graceful. I mean, I think this was very smooth. A lot of teams, like I said before, Southwest, they all had to fight for the same side. Ended up being close to that bridge where Nemesis had a power spot. But never mind, Team War on the opposite side of it actually had a better spot for the endgame zone where it ended up closing. Saw that Catwall and...
02:26:03 Ja, wir sehen uns die Situation.
02:26:31 um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um,
02:27:00 und Fuse Band, als wir in unsere 5e map hier auf E-District gehen. Und so ein paar die Aggressiv-Options, die wir mit Akku hatten, in der Halftime Break hatten, haben wir geblieben, Graceful. Und so, dass diese Main-Team starten mit einem anderen Play-Style starten?
02:27:22 um a new castle based sort of play style or do you think they'll just shift their focus to you know maybe a pathfinder and a crypto i think that teams that are playing not fast or you know for fast rotates will be opting more for like we said pathfinder crypto more staying true to the aggressiveness whereas teams that are happily on some teams are already being watson as well but teams that are happily rotating early might be opting more for newcastle for sure
02:27:48 Looks like we're getting a few catalysts coming through as well as I'm just getting a sneak peek at the lobby loading in. Interesting that in EMEA we're not seeing as many Sparrow pickups. It does feel like there was a quicker uptake of that new and very powerful legend in some of the other regions so far. But we did see quite a lot of crypto still being a powerful pick here in EMEA.
02:28:17 Ich denke Krypto ist eigentlich ein meiner Lieblingspick, weil er sehr versatil ist, in der manche Weise ist, dass man sowohl Defensive und Offensive Capabilität haben, als auch andere Charaktere, wie wir hier gesehen haben, Alter, Ballistik, Conduit auch. Changes passieren alle die ganze Zeit, und ich denke, es ist gut, dass sich alles fresh ist, und dass sich alles fresh ist, wir müssen uns ein bisschen öffnen.
02:28:38 Ja, ich denke, diese sind auch sehr gute Veränderungen, nicht nur für Rangt und die Game in generell, aber auch für Competitive Play, insbesondere die Alter und Ballistik. Konduit hat ein paar Buffs in einem Jahr, aber ich denke, dass es nicht genug genug ist, um die Needle zu verändern. Für sie gibt es nur noch mehr Support Optionen für Pro Play, ob das Support Alter ist, ob das Newcastle ist, oder sogar Watton mit der Revive Pick.
02:29:07 Oh yeah, most definitely. And as you said as well, you know, the Whistler specifically and other...
02:29:36 Ich würde auch sagen, Alter Queue, aber besonders Alter Portal. Es schützt, und fühlt sich sehr oppressive in vielen Fällen. Nicht nur aggressiv, als wenn du Queue durch ein Wall oder sogar Whistled und dann... Du hast Schwung. Der Wissler also macht das damage. Der Fakt, wenn du zwei Leute knockst, und sie tp aus, und es ist so lange Zeit, bevor du sie hinterher kannst, sogar wenn du so eine große Vorteil hast, war... Frustrating, ich würde sagen. Und jetzt, als sie... Ich bin ein großer Fan von...
02:30:05 Do it little by little to make sure that it's, you know... I don't like it when we hit the Nerf Hammer too hard and immediately it kills the character. I would rather be, you know, try a little bit by time and see where's the sweet spot. And I think those are definitely great changes in that direction. Yeah, yeah, it's cool to see. I mean, I'm just thinking about other, you know, sort of nerfs and changes we've made as we get a look at some of the highlights from...
02:30:30 Today so far, but I'm thinking about other times where like, you know, I think in the focus of attention from Sia, I'm thinking Bangle or Smoke. They've changed to take the damage away from those abilities, but they've still retained some amount of utility and usefulness. And it's making me think about the Whistler and be like,
02:30:50 Is there a change for Whistler, where you take away the damage, but maybe make the stun a little bit, you know, not the stun, but the removal of the ability to shoot for a little bit longer or something like that? What do you think about that option? Yeah, I mean, I think it's a really interesting format of, hey, you know, I hit you, now you will overheat and it will essentially stop your spray and you can't do damage for a brief period of time. Like you said about the damage, never been a huge fact.
02:31:18 Ich glaube, es ist eine Art von Abiliten, weil ich glaube, die Gunplay sollte der Deciding Faktor sein. Man kann sagen, hey, GB-Ult ist gut, weil es ein Ultimate ist, aber Raw Abiliten ist niemals ein Fan. Wir sahen das auf Syr-Q, auf Release. Oh, Megalul. Wir sahen das auf Bangalore Smokes, dass es nicht nur Leute gibt. Nein, danke. Ich glaube, wir sind langsam auf der Sweet Spot.
02:31:43 I don't like in general that abilities do damage because I want to die to a gun skill, not like a Q press, that's all. Yeah, I mean, it was hilarious. I feel like we haven't seen it because Bangalore's just not been in the meta as much. But in more campy metas, right, there were definitely times where teams were literally just sitting there and Bangalore smoking someone for like 10 minutes in a row in like a Skyhook zone or something like that, just trying to...
02:32:13 Ich glaube, es war nicht so, dass die Evo-Shields nicht mehr auf diese Abilität ist. Ich meine, es war nicht sogar das. Ich meine, es war nicht immer das. Ich glaube, es war vor Katz, die Leute gemacht haben, um die Tür zu bringen, um die Tür zu bringen. Und du war so sad über die Tür dann, als auch. Es war so sad, aber ich glaube, dass es nicht mehr die Relees-Seir ist.
02:32:32 Du hast eine Tonne an dich, du hast einen Flashbang, und du hast einen Dammag. Du hast einen Rinsen. Ich habe eine Zeit, ich hatte 30 Cells auf unserer Team und wir verloren haben. Ich bin froh, dass wir unsere Weg nach vorne arbeiten können. Ja, ich glaube.
02:32:49 Release Focus of Attention was absolutely the worst we've seen in terms of obnoxious abilities. I agree with you a little bit there, though, in terms of I don't mind putting the damage into ultimate abilities that obviously come out a little less frequently and can have a little more impact. You know, your Bangalore alts, your Gibby alts. I think Stinger bolts honestly are pushing...
02:33:15 the boundaries in terms of what is allowable or acceptable in terms of how strong an ultimate should be. How have you been finding Stingerbolt as the newest ultimate introduced to the game? I think it's been really interesting so far because it has a lot of versatility to it. You can either use it defensively to stop the push or you can use it offensively to deny space to where you're forcing them to, you know...
02:33:44 Aber eine Sache, die ich interessiert habe, ist die Kill Leader, um zu sehen, wie es geht. Wir haben viele Momente hier gesehen, wo Fyuda und Scherb sind die Top-Leading 16. Scherb, speziell, ist jemand, das ich wirklich, wirklich möchte, als auch. Nichts, dass wir Weapon Meta sehen, wie Devotion und R9 über P20, wie wir gesagt haben, da. Ich würde gerne Peter mehr, als auch. Aber Scherb, ich möchte noch ein bisschen aufhören, wo er ist, weil er ist fantastisch.
02:34:13 Ja, ich glaube, ich glaube, dass ihr in-game kommt, denn sie sind auf der gleichen Seite. Und er stellt sich die Zahlen an, als auch Feud. Und Sunni ist auch eine Person, die ich denke, sind ein bisschen underrated. Ja, ich glaube, ich glaube, es ist definitiv...
02:34:32 Ich denke, wenn wir die Leaderboarden von Kills zu Knochs werden, das ist, dass die 30-30 kommen wird, weil die 30-30 werden können, weil die 30-30 werden können, aber sie werden nicht unbedingt in den Rang zu können, die Kills werden. Ich denke, das ist vielleicht auch ein bisschen unterrepräsentiert, auf der Kill Leaderboard. Ich war sehr interessiert zu sehen, dass die Car mit 11 Kills sind. Ich meine, wir highlighten das in Game 1.
02:35:01 actually, but very interesting to see it getting that, yeah, like being that high up. I would have thought all of those kills would get soaked up by R9, by P20s, by Devos, maybe even like Rampage, depending on how many Ballistics you've got running around in the lobby, which is, of course, now Zero Graceful, as it has been banned out. That's opened things up a bit. We're seeing Maggies in here now. We're seeing Wraiths. We're seeing Bangalores. We've got...
02:35:30 A Caustic on the field, Graceful. Finally, they heard my voice. I love Caustic, even though, you know, it's been a while since this big stinker is back finally. It's gonna be hard to see some play, in my opinion, specifically on this map, unless the zone is strictly on buildings, which this map has so much playable area, so you're not really denying anything or gassing anything until very, very, very late, where you can throw that stinky nade, but I'm happy, though, to see people...
02:35:59 Ich kann ein bisschen anders ausprobieren. Aber wenn die Mirage ist, ist es hier. Ich habe dich gesagt, Mad Maggie. Ich weiß nicht, ob die Mirage ist hier. Es ist ein bisschen mehr sussisch für mich. Oh, look. Ich meine, wenn die Leute getrennt in die little market buildings, wo du hast die little market stalls, du hast in die shops. Of course, es kann ein sehr guter option sein.
02:36:26 in terms of being able to repel some other people. That said, we've still got a lot of Cryptos in the lobby, right? And Crypto, just in the way that he can deal with a lot of the Controller Legends, not so much Catalyst, but Rampart, Caustic, and Watson all do have their utility lessened somewhat by the Crypto EMP.
02:36:52 Yeah, most definitely. I think as we can see here as well, all the teams that are opting for Crypto specifically go with rather aggressive comps, where I also said that teams that are more comfortable playing zone early, we see Watson picked up a lot, we still see Cat a lot, and we even see a couple of Newcastles. So there's a clear distinction in how teams prefer to play, also depending on which PUI you get, but...
02:37:13 When you have those comfort picks there, I think that should help some of these teams. Because we even see, you know, when we look at the overall points, some of these teams that we're expecting to be higher up are now slowly updating, opting to change comps as well. Yep, certainly the bans are starting to force teams to play things that...
02:37:35 I wouldn't say they're not comfortable on, but maybe they haven't had as much practice on. It just depends on how the bans go in scrims, right? Because if match days play out differently to scrims, you might get into a situation where there's a combination of Legends banned out that you haven't had to deal with before, and you've got to come up with something new, something on the fly. That's something that we have seen in multiple regions now.
02:38:01 Yeah, definitely. It does look like we've got a street market zone, so we're going pretty southwest here. I love these zones personally. A lot of table area. As right now, Legion Gaming in a fight already. Night is right now just looking, hovering for them as they are crouching at the bottom floor trying to run away from Lotus, I believe. It is not a good spot to be in because even if you start running, hopefully you don't run into another team.
02:38:30 They do grab the banner, though. You can see Miskam in the drone right now. And they actually even managed to get the insta-respawn here. So Ronan playing the high ground. But it looks like it might be back to a 3v3 already. Potentially even a 3v3v3 with Navi actually coming in from Resort over to Lotus after hearing that respawn go off. Meanwhile, over here in...
02:38:56 In the Neon District, we've got quite a few teams getting into it as well. But we'll switch back over to see that three-way fight here as Legion. Oh no, Ken's gone down again. And it looks like that might be it here for Legion Gaming, unless Miskam can get out. I mean, Miskam signs a fly threat there, gets a down at least as he's aping right now. Oh.
02:39:21 Ja, sie sind so bloodthirsty heute und es fühlt sich wie überall sie gehen, Destruction follows. Sie sind nicht zu klicken, als Teams wie War, 10k...
02:39:45 Zero Tenacity is of course the other one, but they certainly do seem to be the boogeyman if it comes to maybe the first three circles. I mean, remember what I said before as well, when you don't have a team to play the same style, you know, it changes how the way that team that has their free win plays a lobby. Na'Vi is one of them. They are just running at people right now because I'm sure as well in their head, they're like...
02:40:10 We are the strongest in this lobby and we're trying to make plays happen. And that's a good confidence to have. I mean, I can't tell if they were just trolling there or they were doing the old rank trick of firing your gun in the air in the hopes that someone else turns up and you get some extra KP. But we saw them spraying the shield across at their own teammates on the top of the buildings. Anyway, Neon Square, things seem to calm down just a little bit over there.
02:40:38 And it's actually over here at Draft Point where Gonext are running into Kat. You can see Kat get the respawn as Gonext try and look at this. Ooh, nice rolling thunder comes through to block them out.
02:40:53 Ja, sie versuchen zu stallen, aber ich denke, Gonex ist nicht das, denn es ist so ein, es ist so ein, es ist so ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein, ein
02:41:22 Interesting. Team Nemesis holding up very much. Just kind of chilling. Thanks to our ops for highlighting someone just getting a little restless. I haven't got much to do in a couple of minutes. I've just got to sit out here by themselves.
02:41:44 Es kann sein, richtig? Die Pros sind immer wieder zu gehen, mit Leuten zu kämpfen. Aber manchmal ist es zu sitzen auf deinen Händen für fünf, vielleicht sogar zehn Minuten. Und für einige Teams ist es echt schwer zu tun, Graceful. Wie warst du, wenn du in der Pro-Team warst, in der nicht zu tun?
02:42:09 A lot of the times, sometimes they call miss even. As long as we don't do anything, we're winning the game. Because the game will kind of play out itself. But like you said, some teams are antsy as well, where they don't like just waiting for stuff to happen. And there's a fine line between playing proactive and looking for stuff and playing passively, waiting for an opportunity to strike. And it definitely goes to show that some teams could be working on that aspect. But...
02:42:35 Team, like you said before as well, Viaduct as well as southwest side of the map. Common zone to see if it ends on the lower side where a lot of teams from Viaduct will be fighting. It'll be a heavy collapse on the east side as the teams that are late will be collapsing there, potentially even on the north side as well.
02:42:57 And that is the north side that we're sort of drawn to at the moment as we look at those five teams that have yet to make their way into the next ring.
02:43:07 Navi, of course, after messing around up near the Lotus, are pretty late into the zone here. But if Ronan... We can see one of them hovering over a crafter right now. I think they've just used that. They're probably going to be looking for the res. The other one is going towards the respawn beacon. Navi, I can only imagine, will be drawn to this like moths to a flame, guys. Yeah, I mean...
02:43:32 Ja, ich denke, das ist ein interessantes Konzept zu bringen und etwas zu halten.
02:44:00 Went to hold back a little bit more meant to be a little more circumspect
02:44:13 Aurora sitzt hier, 14th spot heute mit 17 points. Das ist ein bisschen schwer für sie. Sie haben Sparrow, Catalyst und Wraith gesehen. Ich habe einige der Wraiths gesehen, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um,
02:44:41 you till you leave behind by having Wraith on your team. Like, I feel like it decreases your fighting power as a trio by quite some amount. I think the biggest thing that we've seen with Aurora in general though, like on the opt-in side of the spectrum, has been that they've been playing rather passively even though they picked up roller players as well from just Will on M&K. Is the lack of confidence tied to comps or is it tied to the...
02:45:08 Es gibt weniger Synergy auf der Team-Roster. Normalerweise, wie du gesagt hast, haben wir diese super-aggressive Team gewonnen. Was das denn, dass sie die Armored Advantage hatten, wenn sie die Reden konnte? Oder ist es etwas anderes in der Brewing, die wir nicht wissen können? Wir werden sehen. Aber Navi ist nicht der Gas-Padal. Sie sind immer aufhörter Leute, und sie sind froh, dass sie alle zu finden.
02:45:32 Nope, they find Ronin here. That's the team, of course, managed to get that res off in Energy Bank. And interestingly, Na'Vi playing Edge with Rampart. That's not two things that you generally see go together, but Na'Vi are going to be the ones making that work here. I mean, you know, you slow a target down with the EMP.
02:45:56 Um, even having enough DPS to get them off the Energized Zipline, of course, you're taking 50% less damage getting on top of that. So, um, you really need something solid to cut through it. And it's Wichako's Sheila. In this case, Enziaka actually gets knocked first gracefully.
02:46:15 Ja, wow, okay. So much for Navi being the, you know, the Ring 3 boogeyman. They've outstayed their welcome, apparently.
02:46:44 Good on Ronin for repelling that. But they've still got a little ways to go as go next and some war stand between them and the rest of the circle. The circle has moved down. It's gone out of street market.
02:46:59 Und jetzt sind Teams wie Atlas, Aurora, Repli Totem, die sind in ziemlich guter Platz. Aber wir werden Teams wie Kat hier sehen, gegen Zipland, Mafia, Dragons und Cybercats, als sie versuchen, aus der Street Market zu versuchen, in ein paar Minuten. Ja, es wird heavy action auf der Norden, hier, als der Sonne geht weiter in der Viaduct.
02:47:22 Um, es ist definitiv eine Zone, wo du musst, um die Chokes zu sehen, wie Middle Choke, also Western Choke, wo die Leute fighten, um für eine Power Spot, um die Spiel zu Endeffekt. Either Side, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, weil es literally vier Heids-Difference ist. So viele Teams könnt ihr euch da sein, aber überall else, ihr müsst für etwas, wie Ronin ist jetzt noch. Still hot von der vorherigen Fighten gegen Navi, es geht um Henchman. However, Hoodie überpeaks, als er...
Spannungsgeladene Momente und überraschende Wendungen im Apex Legends Pro League Match
02:47:49
02:47:49 Smacked immediately on the side. Ah, it's a rough one for him. Interesting. Roden playing Mirage, Maggi, Pathfinder here. That is a composition we love to see succeed, but with those first couple of knocks, it's going to be very tough. And especially if you're talking about teams that are hot, there's no one hotter in this lobby right now than Team War. They run straight past the Bangalore ult. If you can get past that before it pops, it...
02:48:19 Das war still solid pickups of KP and a little bit of placement, but rather KP from War.
02:48:42 NO! Die Mythic Bin ist open?!
02:49:10 But the Kraber and Helbert aren't taken? Oh man, that just hurts to see. Oh well, Cybercats, they got other things to worry about right now. And that's Team Cat really just giving it to them. Once again, we've got the Meow Showdown here. As both teams, they can't actually finish each other off in the end. They'll just have to lick their wounds and continue on to the circle.
02:49:39 Zip-Line Mafia and Team War here following up behind them. It looks like Sherb, as a solo, tries to go for the no-scope. And it's the Devo that is his best friend. Stops to get a shield swap. It almost killed him. He almost died to the zone for that. But regardless, it was too much to ask.
02:50:03 It is tough, but he managed to get a KP and a little bit of better placement that's super solid from them, but as we saw before, so many teams tried rotating in from the north side and everybody is falling with the zone on their butts and also three Peters looking at you. There's really not much you can do there. I mean, we've said that two shots from a repeater is enough to knock a full purple armor, so if you've got three, you better be watching out.
02:50:33 10k haben jetzt wieder wieder in eine kühle position. Ich meine, diese Leute, für den ersten Tag als Team, das ist eine verrückte Leistung, richtig? Ich meine, wir sagen verrückte Leistung, aber wenn man die Röster schaut, ist es wirklich so verrückte? All sehr gut, sie haben Resultat, sie haben sich selbst performan, sie sind zusammengearbeitet, und sie zeigen das wirklich...
02:50:59 The better and less in them, I would say. One of them might be rather comparatively new, but even then, when you still have years of experience, you know, they're popping off, and I'm happy for them. Well, if the question was, who is the problem? When we look at Ronin, they kicked Natsuki, right? Hoodie, yet to pick up a kill today. 10k on top of the world, or close enough to in third.
02:51:25 Das ist etwas, dass sie nicht glücklich sind. Okay, ich meine, wir haben ihn mit das. Zero kills auf dem Tag, ich meine, es ist was es. Das ist ja. Das ist ja. Das ist wie es geht. Aber hey, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du,
02:51:51 Okay, like you said consistently in great spots have been getting into endgame I think almost every single game currently in this game still in a good endgame spot can make things happen because they have yet had like a Super explosive games like we've seen the likes of war and but like I said if you put yourself consistently in the endgame one of these games will pay off Well, if I've got to wear the title of truth teller graceful, I will do it but
02:52:21 The truth right now is teams on the south side are having a bad time. Zero Tenacity has been taken down. BCGO going up against Aurora, Mind and Reply Totem all at the same time. Sure, some are at the top, some are down the bottom, but it's chaos everywhere. Catch the last up alive here from Reply Totem. Desperately trying to get this bat off behind the knockdown shields. Does the Arcstar get through or does it bounce off the knock of Kazak? Not...
02:52:47 Sure, they're going to go for the res here. They've got a tree and it looks like maybe a white knockdown shield to try and make that happen. He actually gets it. Now it's Shex's turn to try and get the reset. Meanwhile, down below them, Mind have actually got the full reset off themselves. And by the way, 10k and Atlas are chilling over on the other side, not even having to sweat at all while this chaos is going on.
02:53:18 Ich habe eine große Fade von Kach in der 1-Meg mit der Arnan. Das war unglaublich. Ich habe das Gefühl, dass ich nicht mehr auf Nades habe, aber ich glaube, dass du auch auf Nades hast. Aber ich glaube, Aurora war ein bisschen besser mit der Kach in der 1-Meg mit der 1-Meg mit der Fade. Ich habe das Gefühl, dass er nicht mehr auf Nades hat und er hat 1-Meg. Ich habe eine große Fade.
02:53:44 Four squads left alive. Replytotem probably out of the consideration to win, but you never know. There's always placement points to rat out if you are sneaky enough. That said, well, that's a Wraith left alive, so who knows? Maybe they can enter the void into a good position. Considering the other three are full squads, they're just going to start jockeying for position now.
02:54:11 Ich denke, 10k ist in der besten Platz für den Spiel. Aber es handelt sich auf wie Atlas macht es proaktivisch. Denn 10k ist jetzt einfach zu defendern, dass sie sich nicht aufhören. Als ich sie aufhören, Atlas ist aufhören. Sie können sich nicht aufhören, aber sie können sich nicht aufhören. Aber sie können sich nicht aufhören, aber sie können sich nicht aufhören. Das könnte es die Spiel für die EAP und die EAP und die EAP. Als die EAP kommt, wird sie aufhören. Sie werden von einem anderen Team aufhören.
02:54:36 Okay, 10k, they seem to be withstanding the pressure here. Standing by their totem. The defensive position is working out for them right now. Atlas on one side, Mind on the other. This car is doing such good work from post-kill. It's even getting some knocks now. I think he actually goes down to the zone in the end there. Bit of a misplay from post-kill. We've got to see if Natsuki and Kinshira can make up for that with Mind going down.
02:55:06 Das war ein verrückteres Spiel. Wir haben nicht gesehen, wie die vollen TP-Plane. Aber eigentlich, während das Pressure waren, zwei Teams schießt auf sie, sozusagen. Sie macht einen TP-Plane, in die besten Spot, wo sie auf der anderen Seite endet, auf der anderen Seite befindet. Die zwei Teams schießt auf das 2-V-1.
02:55:34 und gewonnen das Spiel. Phänomenal play von Tenki, von der Positioning. Wie gesagt, sie sind in Endgame. Ein Spiel wird das Spiel geben. Es war dieses Spiel. Aber wir können nicht mehr darüber reden, dass die huge Individual-Player, als wir gesehen haben, das TP-Player, in die Spiel-Player. Phänomenal work.
02:55:54 Yeah, I mean, even the Watson coming in clutch there, you know, flinging fences around aggressively, right? Obviously, a legend that we know more for her defensive abilities, but if you're good enough with the fences, you can certainly make something happen. All right, we're going to have a look at the results here after match five. It was Pathfinder banned out, and we got a 15-point game here for 10k. Atlas following it up with 17.
02:56:24 Ja, sehr evenly spread. Das ist die komplette Opposite von Top Heavy. Das ist eben, über die Bedeutung, denn jeder bekommt die Punkte. Ihr bekommt die Punkte, ihr bekommt die Punkte, und jeder bekommt die Punkte. Und sogar hier, ich würde sagen, auf die Stats...
02:56:51 Never mind the fact that mine only had 1.2k damage, still solid though, but very evenly sped outside of Trihard Thor, which by the way is a really good player, young and has been grinding for a long time. Showing up here in Pro League is a great way. Alright, let's have a look at how these series results are shaping up with one game left to go here in Day 8.
02:57:17 Team Nemesis Kat
02:57:39 Navi, SGP2. They are all playing a completely different game right now, Graceful. Yeah, I mean, and also looking at that, 10k, you know, they have to get top three several times and they're very happy in the spot they're in. All the other teams, however, playing for just making sure we get up the leaderboard a little bit, but that's just, you know, we're going to have to see after that because now...
02:58:04 Coming up shortly for the last match, but before that we're gonna take a small break. So I hope you guys grab some snacks, grab some drinks, relax and come back for the last full packed action match.
Intensive Einzelaktionen und strategische Teamentscheidungen prägen das Apex Legends Match
03:00:06
03:00:06 Welcome back to the last game of EMEA. Graceful. I mean, Match 5 was wild. E-District has given us something to think about already. And we've still got another map coming up. Rather, another match coming up. It is not another map. We're staying on E-District, guys. Don't worry. Don't worry. Don't worry.
03:00:26 The amount of individual plays have been off the charts today. Because not like, never mind the fact that we see team plays a lot, but seeing these individual plays like we saw in that last game was crazy. We see Peter starts across the board here. But not only that, we saw Ray fade into one bag. We saw fence plays from Watson. How long has it been since we saw fence plays?
03:00:47 Ja, es ist, es ist ein langer, es ist ein langer, es ist ein langer, ein langer, ein langer, ein langer, aber das ist das, was wirklich auf meine Augen hat, ist das Spiel auf die Brücke zwischen Replytotem und Aurora. Ich kidde dich nicht, ich habe eine Pikachu-Shock-Face-Emoji gesehen, nachdem das Spiel passieren, von Catch, wenn ich war, dass Aurora gewinnen wird. Oh, look at das Slide, wie wenn du, wenn du fight und...
03:01:14 A lot of these people are roller players. He just went from a back and forth to make sure that, hey, you need to keep looking at me. Slid past and one magnet. That was crazy. But even here, post. Post, please, fence.
03:01:25 Und für diejenigen, die aufhören, aufhören, aufhören.
03:01:53 As soon as I saw that endzone, I was immediately thinking about Team Liquid at the Open winning from that exact same place. Their experience, their competitive Apex knowledge really shining through to get them their second win today.
03:02:10 The second team to have won two games. It is a battle between 10K and War when it comes to these wins. And War still very much, actually both these teams still very much competing for the first place on the leaderboard. But War with a bit of an advantage just because they've been so aggressive. Another tool for that aggression now taken out as Pathfinder is removed. I mean Pathfinder might be removed, but since we saw so many variations of comps taking 10K as an example, they were playing Crypto, Watts, and Rafe.
03:02:39 Und wir sind so close zu finden, wer das Series-Winner wird, wer das Series-Winner wird.
03:03:06 Not just bragging rights, but likely a spot in the Regional Finals, because some teams certainly need it. 10k, remember coming into today, needed 13 points to clinch what is a likely Regional Finals position. As of right now, sitting in third, if we were to stop the games now, they would end with 25 points. Much more than they need to make it to Regional Finals.
03:03:30 Ja, ich meine, es ist ein paar Punkte, ihr wisst. Depending auf wo du endst. Ich denke, sie fühlen sich einfach aus, weil nur, ich glaube, die drei Teams waren, es war kind of top-heavy zwischen den Teams, wo sie sind, wo sie werden, wo sie werden, wo sie werden, wo sie werden, wo sie werden, wo sie werden, wo sie werden, wo sie werden. Ich denke, sie fühlen sich sehr gut aus, weil sie haben in jeder Endgame, wenn nicht jeder, und sie sind gut, weil diese Zone ist eigentlich nicht so weit entfernt, ich glaube.
03:03:56 These zones tend to pull a little bit more. Yeah, Northwest City Halls ending. A zone everybody, I think everybody loves this. And I don't think I've heard anybody say they dislike City Halls plays outside of when it ends in the water where there's a team on the bridge. But fun zone to play regardless.
03:04:11 Ja, wirklich interessant Endzones gegeben to us here. And I'm gonna throw it out there that I know Genome was talking about Ronin last game. This is their chance to bring that back in a big way. Resort has really early access and really good access to high ground and good spots for endgame in City Hall. They've also, if they want to play a little bit slower for third Beacon Scan, they have the opportunity to do that because there's a Survey Beacon and a Ring console in Resort. So Ronin...
03:04:41 Yeah, I mean, even though, you know, they have to make a comeback, they're still sitting kind of happily on 29. Obviously, they shouldn't be just happy with that. But when we're talking about averages, you know, they're way beyond the average because it was kind of top heavy between those three teams, like I said.
03:05:04 Honestly, not even a crazy game they need. If you just get a solid game, top 5, a couple of KP, you will move kind of quickly up that leaderboard. So if they can get themselves that with the zone that close to them, they should be looking pretty happy with that. If they can find out where the zone is going.
03:05:21 I'm always going to be looking at 10k now to see where the zone is actually moving us. Zero Tenacity taking their time on the rotate in. We'll get a bit of information as well. Over by Draft Point, they've still got a fair way to go, but I'd expect to see Zero Tenacity play around either Neon Square or Energy Bank for the next little while. Energy Bank, really not a bad shot if they want to get third Beacon Scan, and it'll give them the opportunity to fight a few squads as well. Yeah, I think that they're still opting for the same pace. I think they...
03:05:50 Some teams tend to play differently on different maps. I think Sir Tenacity is one of the teams that keeps the same playstyle across the board, which I am a firm believer of, because I think the less that you have to change your plan, the more reps you get into a specific thing. Like, if you have to practice Edge on one map and Zone on one map, you're gonna need more reps in general to get as good on both things rather than just having one shred work all the way. The only thing is, you need to make it more adaptable, because...
03:06:18 If that one thing doesn't work, we've seen it time and time again, even on LAN, people tend to, you know, one thing doesn't work immediately, their confidence gets shattered and they struggle, but that's one of the teams where it won't struggle because they're doing really good right now. I mean, that is one of the really difficult things, right, Graceful, is knowing when you should commit to something and when you should back off. There's a lot of unknowns in Apex Legends. It's a battle royale.
03:06:44 Das ist die größte Frage. Das ist die größte Frage. Das ist die größte Frage.
Roster-Veränderungen und strategische Anpassungen im kompetitiven Apex Legends
03:07:10
03:07:10 Ja, es ist definitiv ein Thema, speziell APEX, als E-Sports in its whole, hat, ich weiß nicht, ob es in allen E-Sports ist, aber es hat viele Röster Changes in sehr kurzen Zeit, wo es wirklich schwer zu lösen, was das Problem ist, weil alle Teams, die sich jetzt erstellt haben, haben Analysts und Coaches und was nicht.
03:07:31 Das war nicht der Fall in der Zeit. Und immer noch, wenn du nicht in der Zeit bist, hast du nicht die gleichen Ressourcen gewonnen. Es ist sogar schwer, wenn du jemanden helfen kannst, das von einer anderen Perspektiven. Ich denke, however, dass... ...getting Replacement ist nicht eigentlich ein schlechtes Ding, weil manchmal das was ein Team braucht. Aber... ...figuring out...
03:07:52 Wenn es der Zeit zu machen ist, ist definitiv wichtig. Aber ich bin nicht ein Fan von Mid-Season-Splitern. Ich habe eine Sub-Supp ist eine Sache, aber es gibt drei, vier, fünf Spieler. Und ich habe es geschafft. Shoutout zu meinem Freund, Forrest. Wenn wir in der Pro-League-Split haben, habe ich durch alle möglichen Roster-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split
03:08:17 Ja, du hast es gut zu gehen, und es ist lustig, dass Na'Vi war auf dem Screen, weil du warst das, weil sie so ein guter Beispiel von einem Team ist, dass, ich meine, hat sich auf die Beziehung an der Beziehung an ein paar Roster-Change-Shenanigans hat, aber auch hat sich auch ein paar Roster-Change-Shenanigans hat, eben bevor der Big Pick-Up bei Na'Vi, eben bevor der Huge Win auf der ALGS-Stage in Japan, das ist ein Team, das...
03:08:43 Sie haben beide sehr willig zu sein, besonders Hiariko und Uchako, und sehr willig zu verwenden, wenn es nicht in der Weg geht. Das ist auch eine von den strengen, von einem Solidified-Duo zu haben, wo sie zusammen spielen sind, und sie fühlen sich das, was für uns funktioniert. Wir als ein Duell, wirklich. Und die Third-Duo-Kindel haben sich das Puzzle-Pieße, das sie brauchen.
03:09:07 Where in other cases, you know, when you're going through... Like, those two are playing the same roles the whole time. Whereas, like, you're just finding one piece rather than swapping roles. We've seen some cases, like, you know, people were asking, was Nasky gonna IGEL or not IGEL? And people are swapping roles now. It becomes a lot harder. Like, it's a lot more in-depth than it seems. Because sometimes just swapping a player does not mean...
03:09:29 Es ist einfach nur ein Fragger für ein Fragger. Es könnte ein Roll-Swap, es könnte ein Legend-Swap, weil die Leute nicht so comfortable sind, wie wir sehen. Auch der Great-Man himself, Hal, war ein Fragger, weil er nicht alle Fragger spielt. Nicht jeder Spieler ist das Versatile, aber wenn man das Sweet-Spot ist, für die Person zu sein, die Person zu sein, die Person zu sein kann, sie kann DRIVE. Und Speaking of DRIVING, Chaotik, ich bin immer ein Fragger.
03:09:52 Yeah, Dragons know exactly what their recipe for success is, especially when you shred the shields off folks that quickly. They've been playing building defense very well today. We saw it up against Reply Totem and now up against Zipline Mafia, taking a chunk out of them, making sure that you're not sharing space when you don't need to. Yes, Dragons are playing a conservative comp, but that doesn't mean that they're going to sit by and let you take space from them. Fit disengaging is Tyler.
03:10:18 Mit dem G7 macht das nicht mehr als möglich wie möglich. Gonext geht es weiter mit Nabi. Ein weiterer Unkomfort spot, vor allem nach dem Catwall zu gehen. Aber mit dem Portal gelegt, Gonext hat Backup. Ich denke, es ist gut zu playen Proactive, um zu deniener Platz von Teams zu tun. Hey, du bist nicht möglich, denn du bist ein Problem später. Dragon ist ein sehr guter Job, um zu deniener Platz zu sagen. Hey, du bist nicht möglich, wir wollen das für uns selbst, so wir haben einen besseren Zeit, um mehr Kills oder Positionen später zu bekommen.
03:10:49 Atenam hittin' us with the Sparum movement. Still haven't quite mastered it, but you know, I'm working on it. I gotta tell you, the last time we were playing I was on Gibby, I'm all about that Mirage now, Graceful. Oh. Is this the hole where you said, I'm gonna pick up Eva this game, and then after the game, I'm probably not gonna pick up the Eva again. You gotta try, you gotta try. Maybe I pick up the Eva and it's busted, who knows?
03:11:19 Manchmal ist es, wir versuchen etwas zu tun. Ich bin glücklich, dass wir uns ein bisschen experimentieren können. Zero Tenacity zu spielen. Nicht ein schlechtes Spot, aber in der Late Game ist es möglich, aber es kann auch sehr schwer sein, weil es noch mehr Teams in der kleinen Umgebung zu sehen. Zero Tenacity zu haben, Cybercats, Replytotem und Navi zu spielen. So ein großer Teil der Position hat sich zu beenden, muss man sich auf die Third Partys zu beenden.
03:11:46 Sierra Tenacity spot is actually kind of scary because they're not on the edge really they're almost like they're on the edge of the next circle to where like a lot of teams will be collapsing on their side because people will rotate probably southern side or maybe eastern side later on as more teams collapse though it's gonna be really messy because this is one of the spots that even though it's in the
03:12:07 In the open so many teams can see you it's also the playable areas on that hill specifically hillside is not that much it's rather more down into the pit or on top of the hill rather than trade on like in the middle of the hill it's scary I should see that Kozak is also human I'm not the only person that accidentally swaps my weapon when moving up to an arsenal simply to upgrade something so you know a little bit of happiness for Dia here is
03:12:36 Ich weiß, dass es nicht nur eine mir problem ist. Aurora sitzt auf dem Topf, wird bald zu geben. Das ist nicht...
03:12:43 Huge deal for them, as most of Aurora's job has just been making sure that they are the last team left in Lotus, clearing their backs, as it were, which is important for any squad in Apex Legends, but especially when you're playing Edge like Aurora are and have had the issues that Aurora have this split. It's about playing academic Apex Legends. Quick ring console scan will give them the best info possible, and the question becomes what they'll do with it. I know they've got an evac tower, but where will you choose to go?
03:13:11 I mean, they get this knowledge right about now as the zone. It's just about to pop for them. As more and more teams see, this zone actually will shift more towards the southern side. You guys can't see, but you know, I'm the god, so I see it right there. Boom, southern side. They will be evacuating in probably, or just fight for a side. A lot of these people are now opting to play buildings rather. There's actually more playable areas in the middle side of this zone.
03:13:36 wo Souternside ist bereits geholfen von drei Teams, als wir sehen, Seroton, Ather, Gonex, Navi kommen in hot, als Cybercats also lurken, mit Replytotem und VCGO als auch, wirklich nebenbei. Wo werden sie gehen? In Team Nemesis in SCP-2 oder die anderen Seite? Es ist die Fiesta, Souternside. VCGO haben die Mythic, dann. Ich weiß, ob sie es war, ob es ein Kampf über es ist. Tyler hat es geschafft, dass es die Kampf über es. Tyler hat es geschafft, zu gewinnen. Ich sage, Legion Gaming.
03:14:03 Und Tyler wird erheblich sein, dass er sein Leben ist. Nate schwingt auf ihn, aber Tyler wird erheblich gewinnen. Quick Shield Cell in die Korte, hat Nate sofort auf ihn. Und die Dragons gehen. Ronin mit den Mirage Revenant Wraith composition.
03:14:20 Ich denke, dass sie 3-2-3 gewonnen hat, aber jetzt noch eine Fyrebrüse, als Vcgo ist hier mit Totem, mit dem Maggi, wie wir gesprochen haben, mit dem Mirage, als Devo ist singend, um zwei Mitglied zu haben. Vielleicht der Mirage ist es? Ich weiß nicht! Das ist es, ich weiß nicht! Das ist es, ich weiß nicht! Ich weiß nicht, der Tier geht um, aber wir sollten alle zu können. Zero Tenacität nicht bekommen, um die 3rd Partei zu holen.
Strategische Wendungen, überraschende Siege und historische Leistungen im Apex Legends Pro League Match
03:14:50
03:14:50 You see how crazy it can get when you're able to catch people off guard. Zero Tenacity getting caught off guard by the damage. Let's go next. Now we're looking for a way in. Micey's got the defense laid down with the catalyst, but a few more seconds on the next Pharaoh Fluid. We'll actually let them stick a res. Nade into res, could be the move, and we're sticking it. BC go, go down, so do apply Totem.
03:15:11 I mean, really good stalling with that cat spikes into nades there. That's actually how you need to play it. Super good stalling by Missy right there. But now, go next. Still trying to kidnap somebody with that TP. Doesn't make the play. I believe that is probably their call to not make a play from now on. But there's still too many teams nearby as Navi is just waiting as well.
03:15:33 Zero Tenacity biding their time. The Ult Excel won't get Micey his Catwall immediately, but it should secure it at least for the next zone, which means that Zero Tenacity have to be very careful. Playing next to Navi, you can't just be expending the Catwall for nothing. It has to gain you something. A Position, a Team Wipe, anything. As Atlas, look for a Team Wipe of their own. Stinger Bolt into Caustic Gas shuts down the push from Atlas.
03:15:59 Das ist wirklich ein Kostig? Das war Kostig. Das war Kostig. Das war Kostig. Das war Kostig. Das war Kostig. Das war Kostig.
03:16:27 Oh! Oh! Oh!
03:16:50 We're likely going to see a Rez on the outside. Big damage being dealt. SJP2, though, still waiting for this Catalyst wall to expire to get everybody back in the game. Denzei finishes off the kill on War 10K. Now, look at this.
03:17:03 I mean, SCP-2 played that phenomenally. Even though the 3P was lurking, they seem to actually turn that around and win the fight, even though it was a huge throw by the PK play, Sherb still showing up and saying, hey, I was there, I want to make somebody at least I did my thing in the fight, but they do fall there. As Seer Tenacity fighting currently against Navi and takes them down, but will they have time to walk in with the reset? Doesn't look like it. Ooh, is this in?
03:17:31 Es ist in, es ist in. Oh mein Gott. Und sie bekommen die Rezes hier auch. Sie wissen, wenn sie eine Ult-Excel haben, Zero Tenacity vielleicht sogar auf eine Wraith-Portal für die nächste Runde. Sie sind einfach un-pushable hier. Und jetzt sind die Team mit dem Mad-Bagging. Henchman ist noch nicht so gut. Sie sind auf Zero Tenacity. Das ist der Zeit. Sie haben Henchman. Er ist in!
03:17:54 I mean, they trade, but they can't push off of that. This is actually a fortress. This is in their favor to where nobody can push. Also, because of cat spikes. Now, feud are looking to try and make the play as well. Everybody's in an uncomfortable spot except these guys right now. Yeah, Paynex, immediate EMP.
03:18:13 I like that Zero Tenacity at least pretend to play aggressive, because while they can't push through the Stanger Bolt and the Pharaoh Fluid, they can certainly make this as difficult for the team on the outside as possible, and maybe inherit a squad to come in and third party with them. Remember Zero Tenacity is still waiting for the portal, and look at the perks that have been taken.
03:18:32 I'm seeing a Portal in their future. As it turns out, they don't even need it. Fyuta walks out here. Kinda is gone. What is happening? Zero Tenacity with the 007 style Secret Agent play. Now have Fyuta on the outside with just Henchmen left. It's a one clip off the R99 and Fyuta saves the team.
03:18:53 Das war ein sehr guter Platz. Ich dachte, dass sie sich nicht warten können. Aber er geht einfach raus und geht es aus. Das ist gut für sie. Sie waren in einem schweren Spot, weil sie geteilt sind. Aber super clean Reset. Magik in eine Korne und dann hat die Reset. Speaking of Korne, jetzt ist der Ronin geteilt mit Arc Stars und Scout Shots von überall, als Hoodie in der Last Man Standing. Sticken die Rez. Invisible in die Korne, das ist wie wir es.
03:19:21 Unfortunately, the 30-30s continue to harass Hoodie in that Catalyst wall. It does not mean good things for him, I'll tell you that much. Zipline Mafia, they throw a few shots in here, but...
03:19:32 I'm still seeing Hoodie alive, really weirdly enough. Finally, Roden are going to go down. That took a very long time, and Zero Tenacity actually had their Catalyst wall back. Micey, taking a bit of damage off the Thermite, is still going to survive. The rotation in, extremely tough now, though. No portal, no wall. Zero Tenacity, no cover. All of it expires. Feudu swings out. No, he's carried him.
03:19:54 Und jetzt geht's.
03:20:15 Nemesis, Mine, Cybercats, everybody is getting rolled out of the lobby right now as 10k is in endgame Godspot again! How do they keep doing this? Are they 6 for 6 in endgame spots? Is Kachera the goat? Who knows at this point? Zipline Mafia however, standing strong at 28 points, they need to close this game out because that will shoot them, potentially pass up to 10 on the leaderboard, pass 10 on the leaderboard, which they desperately need right now. Yeah, I mean, at least at the moment.
03:20:44 Oh mein Gott, du bist du!
03:21:13 Aurora managed to actually pull this off. 10k now sandwiched. They went through that and committed to that TP? That was absolutely crazy. How are both teams still alive? Khazak, 1hp. Goes about to get here right now.
03:21:27 Maske, Swings, das nicht ganz gut bekommt, aber es ist eine sehr gute Balance für 10K. Sie wollen den Kampf machen, sie müssen den Kampf machen. Sie können nicht die ZipLine Mafia spielen. So ein Quick Reset von der Seite von der Bühne ist, was die Doktor hat. Und durch die Winde, die ZipLine Mafia geht. Die 10K starten, Schunkung aus Aurora, um die Kampf zusammen zu machen. Ein weiterer Knochen.
03:21:50 Aurora, nur zu einem leften und 10k für den Kampf mit Zip-Line-Mafia. Sie haben Hype, sie haben alles. Was ist passiert, Lia? Sie sind alle wieder re-engaged und jetzt 10k ist noch in Goldspot. Ich denke, 10k gerade jetzt hat ein KP. Sie hat eigentlich 1st Point Placement. Jetzt sind sie jetzt nach unten. Sie sind alle in den anderen. Aurora ist Eliminatet und es kommt auf den 3-4-3.
03:22:18 10k ist es Zeit für nicht 1, nicht 2, aber 3 Wins auf den Tag! Postkill schießt, schießt, schießt die Fistikums, und mit der Team! Die Team wird von 0s zu 0s zu 0s! 10k! Moin es auf in der Welt! Was für sie für sie für Matchday Nr. 8! Was ein Statement von der Team! Cashierer Postkill mit der Nulli-Edition!
03:22:45 In the heat of the moment, Maskey joins them, and they do an insane performance right there. They not only put themselves into endgame so many times, but they managed to close out not one, not two, but three games, and they might even have taken it all home. You know, I'll have to see the leaderboard for that, but that was crazy. Also, that fight, even honestly the craziest part.
03:23:09 Yeah, you cannot, you cannot make this up. I mean, Gino, in the endgame there, I'm looking at a team that we started the day with really zero expectations for. It's a squad that has one IGL who's going out, he's planning to retire, it's not really working for him. Nasky, who's been dropped by a team after his squad disbanded, and yet they win it all? Dear, dear, they didn't just win it all, they did more.
03:23:37 They got a bonus point. They won three games in a series. It's been a very long time since we have seen anyone get a bonus point in ALGS. Just to remind people, because this doesn't happen very often, there's only...
03:23:55 There's only two ways to do that to get a bonus point, guys. And that's one, you can win three games in a series, or two, you have to get more than 50 points than second place. This is the first time in quite a while we've seen this happen. And the fact that it's a team that just pulled up for the first time in their first day in Pro League makes this all the sweeter. Absolutely crazy and graceful.
03:24:23 This is such a big win, not just for Nasky, whose journey we've been tracking, but, I mean, I'm looking at this and thinking about Kashera as well, who, again, was thinking about retiring. Postkill has done an incredible job to stay really strong for the roster, and this speaks only to his tenacity, if you'll forgive the fact that I'm saying the word tenacity because we have zero tenacity in the lobby. I mean, it...
03:24:51 There's just an incredible amount of hard work that's gone into this, not just with Natsuki joining, but with Kashera and Postkill managing to hold things together throughout the split and really prove that, like we were talking about in this game, are we the problem? Is this what's wrong? Or have we just found the fact that we now have that piece we need to succeed?
03:25:14 Ich denke, die beste Weg zu beschreiben ist, dass du das Bild, wenn du einen Mann mit einem Pick-Ax sehen kannst, ist der Diamond, und er geht um. Ich denke, das war Kashera, almost. Er war über zu turnen, und dann Poste vielleicht pushed ihn forward ein bisschen, und dann die Diamond they found war Nasky. Für heute, das war der Fall, weil der Performance war auf den Shards. Und ich denke, nicht nur die Faktin, dass sie in die Godspots getrennt, aber sie haben auch die Kills auf den Leaderboarden. Sie hat drei Spiel, das ist unglaublich.
03:25:43 Und das ist nur der Beginn, wie Gino gesagt, das ist die erste Zeit, dass sie zusammengekommen sind, und sie sind so gut. Das könnte die Start-Potenziale für eine neue Ere, wer weiß. Ich würde gerne sein. Du sagst das, und es ist interessant, dass du sagst die Start-A-New-Ere, weil ich das so, als Navi, oder jetzt Navi, gewinnen. Wir haben all diese wirklich historied IGLs in EMEA. None of sie wirklich...
03:26:12 haben sie geschafft die Formulierung für die Wynn mit der Exception, und ich will das jetzt aus, ich weiß es, mit der Exception von Hackies, die es zusammengekommen für Allianz, für eine sehr, sehr lange Zeit. Aber als wir sehen, Navi, oder Gonext, als sie dann waren, dieses Split, ich meine, ich denke, über die older, mehr experienced IGLs...
03:26:33 von EMEA. Sie haben wirklich struggled. Wir haben Swinney, die, ja, hat sich schon sehr stark gemacht haben. Wir haben Kashera, die noch nicht ganz hoch ist, als die 2nd-Place, dass alle anderen redenen. Und wir haben Nasky, die sich überrascht. Genome, wenn wir sagen, neue Ereignisse, fühlen wir in die neue Ereignisse. Und es ist einfach zu schnell zu starten, aber ich kann aber nicht so viel hope für die alten Titans.
03:27:01 Ja, look, is that on the horizon? I mean, the fact that Team War has done so well today. I mean, Aurora even crept up at the end there after a bit of a shocker at the start. I don't know. I think it might be a little too early to call that one, Dia, if I'm being honest with you. I think we need to see the results at Lam specifically to make that happen, right? Because if we go back...
03:27:29 ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
03:27:51 I respect that. I respect a little bit of patience, and you've been very patient. And so I'm going to give us the overall leaderboards here at home, because these are the squads.
03:28:00 After this match. That ended up with. Well you know the points. The win. The win really the huge story here. 21 points for 10k. It isn't quite reaching the average that you talked about. The start of the day genome. But given that it's their third win. It is going to do plenty for them. Zipline Mafia. However the win just snapped away from them at the end. I felt a little bit bad graceful. Because we're talking about this 10k Aurora fight the whole time. Zipline Mafia felt like a casualty. In that end game. Getting reset on.
03:28:30 10k really managed to use zipline mafia to find themselves yet another win 79 points for the day for 10k putting them a healthy margin above zero tenacity and team war and so we really do have a fun story at the end graceful the team that played zone did end up beating the teams that played aggressively for the kills
03:28:52 Ich meine, wie ich gesagt habe, sie hat in den ganzen ganzen Endgame und diese Punkte wirklich showen das. 49 Placement Points. Aber, never mind die Fakt, dass sie die 4-Most Kills in der ganzen Lobby haben. Sitten an 30. Das ist das, dass du, wenn du zonen kannst, kannst du proaktivieren. Und das ist wirklich so, dass das, dass das zonen bedeutet, dass das zonen nicht nur ein Bild ist, aber du musst, dass du proaktivierst und das KPS hast. Und das ist ein super guter Spot.
03:29:21 Leaves them in the 11th now, right? Is that it? Is this before? Yeah, it is. Yeah, this is as of right now. These are the current overall scoreboards for EMEA. And those 13 points that we talked about, 10k needing to push themselves into Regional Finals qualification, they crushed that. Up to 11th now, SJP2, another notable entrant, and Aurora making their way healthily towards Regional Finals. Looking really good, and I'm...
03:29:51 Tossing my focus towards the top of the leaderboard as well. Third and fourth for Team War and Zero Tenacity. Genome absolutely squads to look out for. Teams, players even, to look out for. Definitely coming from Zero Tenacity in this case. Not to spoil too much, but we've got our Sony Endzone Kill Leader to talk about. And that is none other.
03:30:14 Dann ist das Tenacious man da. Feuda, tatsächlich mit Scherber für die meisten Kills. Die Tie-Breaker ist sicherlich, mit dem Devo, endlich aus dem P-2020. Es ist schon ein paar Jahre alt in den Meta, so wenn es ihr erste Broadcast in ein paar Mal ist, Devo, auf den Scherber für den Deadliest Weapon in der Allgemeine.
03:30:35 Yeah, we just see the 30-30 creep in there as well. I don't know where that went missing before, but certainly the Devo popping off. But so were these two lads, Sherb for War, as well as Feudor for Zero Tenacity. I mean, they were the teams that were putting in the kills. As we saw the winner on the day, 10k, were actually getting most of their kills from placement points. And that's kind of fascinating here, DR, because they had, if you do the maths, they had about...
03:31:05 Das ist wirklich so wild. Ich meine, wirklich impressive. Really impressive play, but when you put it like that, when you use the numbers to tell a story, you gotta be amazed. Fyuta, really using the numbers here.
03:31:34 Puts up a lot of kills, especially on Ballistic. You can see after Ballistic gets banned, he's like, alright, alright, I'll cool it for a little bit. But still, very much spearheading for the squad, saving them a couple of times in that endgame. It has been a very exciting day if you're a Zero Tenacity fan, if you're a War fan, but specifically if you're a 10k fan. I am so, so happy to be not only announcing the fact that they've won the day, which we all watched, but...
03:32:01 Ja, danke, danke. Thank you so much. Yeah, it was tough. But we made it. Three wins. I don't know. I need to calm down a bit. I think. The adrenaline is still pumping.
03:32:28 I mean, it is a historic feat to, I mean, be able to win three games on a match day. And the fact that you did it with a squad that coming into today we had zero data on, we didn't know how things would work out with you picking up Nasky, especially with how up and down the split has been. And so I know it can feel like a bit of a basic question, but I'm feeling an immense sense of almost relief for you guys.
03:32:56 How are you, as the IGL, who's weathered this storm, feeling, knowing that you just grabbed a first place? Yeah, for the people that are following our team, we have been very unstable. People saw my tweets talking about retirement last week. And it's not from last week. That feeling is from before. And the sense of relief is just that even though...
03:33:23 Alles ist frustrierend, nichts geht unserer Weg und wie ich in den Beginn habe, bevor dieses Jahr angefangen habe, ich noch will gewinnen. Selbst wenn es eine 1% Chance gibt, selbst wenn wir mathematisch sagen, wir müssen hier gewinnen, wir müssen die Top 3 dort machen. Wenn es noch möglich ist, als competitor, du hast noch das Gefühl, das macht dich, dass du gewinnen und zu versuchen.
03:33:51 um zu spielen, und heute, ich weiß nicht, wir haben 3 gewinnen, und ich fühle mich, dass wir noch mehr können. Und alle kamen zusammen, Gnaski, Post, und ich weiß nicht, was zu sagen.
03:34:07 Ich bin so glücklich für dich, Cashier. Wir sprechen hier und da. Ich bin so glücklich für Nasky und Post. Ihr habt euch gefühlt heute sehr gut. Es gab es 6 für 6 Endgame-Zone oder 5 für 6? Es gab es 5 für 6, wenn ich nicht verstanden bin. Im Jurassic-Games, wir konnten auf Godspot zu gehen. Wir hatten die Kahl. Ich glaube, Nasky nicht, wenn wir ihn.
03:34:35 Und dann das Spiel hat es dann geschlossen. So in diesem Spiel, wir könnten auch in der Endgame gewesen sein. Auch die Spiels, die wir hatten, zum Beispiel dieser, die wir sehen. Wenn ihr die Spiel von Coastal gesehen habt, die Rotation, die wir gemacht haben, die Situation, die wir hatten. Es ist einfach so Flawless. Und ich weiß nicht, es klickt. Es klickt für uns. Weil mein Spiel ist sehr, wie der Taktik aspect von Apex.
03:35:04 Es war immer so, aber um es zu funktionieren, die kleinen Details mussten zu sein werden. Und ein Spieler mit der Erfahrung von Gnask, er hat mir sehr geholfen. Er versteht alles, was ich wollte. Und wenn ich nichts gesagt habe, er hatte seine eigenen Ideen. Und alles funktioniert. Und wir proveen, dass vielleicht alle sagen, dass 3-4-Moz in Key ist und 3-Moz in Key kann.
03:35:32 Maybe we don't need to shoot. Maybe we just need to rotate. It kind of seemed like that. We were just talking about it on broadcast, how you guys averaged a 2.5 placement better than a third placement across the series, which is just incredible, right? You've had a couple of different teammates over the years, Kashira. Has anything ever clicked this quickly?
03:35:59 And, you know, why do you think it has clicked so quickly here when you literally made this decision like less than a week ago?
03:36:11 Ja, der Potenzial ist da. Es gibt andere Spieler, die wir die Chemie fühlen, aber man kann nie sagen, wie ein Pro-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League-League
03:36:40 Wie ihr alle gesehen habt, wir sind noch 11. Und das Ziel ist es, dass wir diese Schritte machen und wir uns in der besten Position mögliche, bevor wir die Finale erreichen können, um eine gute Draft zu erreichen. Und wir versuchen unser Bestes. Das war, wie kann ich sagen, eine letzte Chance für mich, für Bost, für Gnask ein bisschen.
03:37:06 Und für die Leute, die die Format kennen, wenn man es nicht zu EWC geht, ist es schwer zu qualifizieren. Und ja, wir werden unser Bestes geben. Und hoffentlich werden wir ein Team, das die Leute genutzt werden. Ich weiß nicht, ich fühle mich in einem Multiverse, nicht zu lieben, mit diesem Team. Es macht nicht Sinn. Du fühlst mich wie der eine.
03:37:28 Ja. Plot Armour. Plot Armour. Ja. Und jetzt alles zusammenkommt. Gnask war mit Kai und Dolph und jetzt Gnask. Und es war zwei Stunden bevor wir die Entscheidung gemacht. Two Stunden bevor wir die Roster locken. Ich weiß nicht. Ich hoffe, es wird eine lustige Geschichte sein.
03:37:46 You know what, Kashira? Regardless of everything, I'm so happy that you stuck it through, because I think that you could really hit something here. You know, we've all... Things could have... Everybody always imagined back, we keep talking about your second at LAN, where I think you guys should have won and you could have won. And I think that when we've seen the peak of you, and I think everybody would love to see you succeed back to that level that you have been at, and with hopefully the addition of Natsuki, that could potentially happen. Like you said, this is your step one.
03:38:14 Du hast bereits angefangen, dass wir eine Displacement, eine Displacement und es gewinnen müssen und wir werden es machen können. Wenn du es denkst, wenn du es träumst, könnte es passieren. Ich hoffe, dass du dich für dich anrufst. Vielen Dank für die Unterstützung und für die kinder Worte.
03:38:30 A real quick question, because I don't want to keep you too long, but I have to ask, you know, this acquisition of Nasky moving into today, especially after his last stint on Ronin, if you can even call it that, it was so short-lived. What was this like coming in, of course for you, but also for him, for how you wanted to approach calling today, for how you wanted to play your best game of Apex Legends, knowing that you also have another really...
03:39:00 IGL von EMEA von deinem Seite. Ja, ich denke, es zeigt die Erfahrung von Gnasky. Wir haben uns vor Jahren gespielt, und ich weiß wie Gnasky funktioniert. Er weiß wie ich, wie ich arbeite. Und als ich nachmittelt, er entstanden hat, was die Team braucht. Ich hatte nicht viel von ihm zu fragen. Er wusste, okay, Post und Cash...
03:39:28 Das Dynamik-Duo. Ich versuche es in diesem Spielstil. Er hat mich machen, mein eigenes Macro-Games. Und er ist hier, um das whole der agressiven Spieler zu sagen. Und gleichzeitig machte diese kleine Entscheidungen. Von seiner Erfahrung. Er versteht das Spiel sehr tief.
03:39:54 Ich weiß nicht, er versteht einfach was ich, was ich brauche. Es ist besonders... Er glaubte wirklich in dieser Sache. Als er in der Team kam, er sagte wirklich, hey, wir machen das! Hey, man, das ist gut! Und er sagte, nein, nein, wenn wir gewinnen, wir geben unseren Besten, wir werden uns qualifizieren! Und ich denke, diese Energie war auch sehr wichtig für heute, für mich und Post. Und ja, ich weiß nicht, hoffentlich morgen können wir das gleiche machen.
03:40:23 Und ich weiß nicht, dass ich zu viel von mir bin. Es ist nur ein guter Tag, ein Wunsch. Wir nehmen es, wir gehen weiter. Und ja, hoffentlich geht es unser Weg. Ich kann das eine-steppe-at-a-time-mennstelle. Und ich weiß, dass heute nur ein Wunsch ist. Du hast große Aspirations, Träume, wie weit du kannst mit diesem Team gehen und mit dem Wunsch du hast.
03:40:52 Mit dem in mind, celebrating heute ist eine eigene, individuelle Sache. Ich möchte euch eine Möglichkeit, die Fans zu bemerken, vor allem durch die Struggles dieses Splits. Und ja, die Fans, wenn ihr ein Shout-out für... Ich möchte, besonders diejenigen, die für die letzten paar Wochen, sie haben ein paar Messagen bekommen, ein paar Beispiele, ein paar Beispiele, ein paar Beispiele, ein paar Beispiele, ein paar Beispiele.
03:41:19 Und in einer Weise, es beeinflusst dich, es beeinflusst dich. Es speziell wenn es von einem Platz von Leuten, die du kennst, die du bist, sind immer da für dich. Es ist wirklich sinnvoll, dass so viele Menschen immer in der Team und in mir glauben. Und ich möchte all die Unterstützung bedanken, nicht nur in diesem Ruck moment, aber in der ganze Zeit, in Apex. Wenn es für diesen Unterstützung war, denke ich...
03:41:47 Ich hoffe, dass alle die schwersten Momenten sein werden, und vielleicht noch nicht hier, wie ich für meinen Traum bin. Ich wollte nur sagen, vielen Dank. Vielen Dank an alle. Ich fahre, ich fahre ein Franchisinha, und es wird eine schöne Nacht.
03:42:04 That's wonderful. Speaking for us, we're all very happy to see such an incredible story play out. Thank you so much for giving it your all. Thank you, guys. Have a great night. It's so wholesome. I'm so happy. Graceful. It's been...
03:42:27 A fantastic day of Apex Legends. And even better, a historic one as we got to see a team pick up yet another bonus point. What are your final thoughts for us as we wrap up today's EMEA Match Day 8?
03:42:39 My final thoughts is that the level, you know, individual level I've seen today and the individual plays that teams have been making actually take, you know, takes me by surprise as more and more players like Sherb specifically in my head today has been phenomenal as well as Feuda. Although you hear a lot about up and coming players and whatnot, you know, they've shown the consistency and...
03:43:03 Genome, final thoughts from you for EMEA Matchday 8?
03:43:32 Ja, look, I do see some hope here for the region. Obviously, I think Alliance have always given that to any of our European brothers and sisters, but they need more than that. They need more than the one team, and I feel like we're starting to get it.
03:43:51 There's a lot to look forward to. I've just seen on my timeline, Nasky has confirmed that he's going bald with Kashira. So we've got that to look forward to as well. Always, always fun stuff happening here.
03:44:04 We got folks shaving their heads. I gotta get online. I gotta see what's going on in the celebrations for today. Thank you both so much for joining me. It's been a wonderful Match Day 8. And I will see those two handsome gentlemen when we are back with the Americas in just about an hour and a half. An hour and 31 minutes, but it'll be 30 by the time I finish talking. Really wonderful day here in EMEA. Americas promises to be...
03:44:32 Somehow, even more exciting. I'm sure we'll cook something up there because we've got some crazy stories going on over here in EMEA and even more Apex to look forward to, not just today, but this weekend as we will be playing all weekend. We'll see you in an hour and a half for the Americas. Go grab some food, some water, get ready because your next six games of amazing Apex Legends are coming down the pipeline very soon.
