Einleitung und Überblick über den ALGS Match Day 9
00:05:2700:05:27 Well, it's Matchday 9 here in the ALGS out of 10, which means one thing, there is one day left to punch your ticket to our regional finals. And if you're on the cusp, it is time to perform. If you're sitting pretty, well, maybe you're already thinking about joining us in Mannheim, Germany, but all the teams in the middle have to show up today. So if you're looking for competitive Apex Legends, then look, no.
00:05:50 Ich bin Rain Day, ich bin dein host all day long, Locking in mit zwei meiner Favoriten.
00:06:08 Ja, zwei ways to look at it. Obviously, very excited that England went through. Unfortunately, I have to be subjected to probably another 90 minutes of that style of football next time I watch them. But enough about the Euros, more about the ALGS, because you're quite right. It is the final regular season match day today. Before we know...
00:06:34 What 20 teams are going to be going through to our regional finals? And then of course we find out after that who's going to be going to that LAN. It's going to be a very exciting day, but also a little bit of a tough one for us because for the first time this season, we get to send some teams home and say, hey, that's the end of your split.
00:06:47 Dan Gaskin hier, bereit zu join you as well. Dan, how are you feeling going into Matchday 9?
00:07:05 A little bit older, my bones are a little bit creakier, but I'm still ready to cast some Apex. That's what's good is that my vocal chords still work. I can still shout and yell about the things that I love. And I'm very excited to be here today because as Mark alluded to, we have to send teams home. Now I'm not excited about sending teams home, but that means people will be fighting for their spot and arguably taking more risks and playing some better Apex.
00:07:26 Speaking of better Apex, it's hard to really look at today as outclassing some of the things we saw yesterday. It was phenomenal from a lot of teams. You could feel the tension because Group A is sitting out, so they knew they had to perform. Let's walk you through a little bit of Match Day 8 so those catching up on the broadcast today know what occurred. First off...
00:07:45 Es wäre wirklich Trojan's Day. Ich habe gesagt, dass es keine Trojan-Horse gibt. Es gab nichts secretes, dass sie die winnen. Sie haben solid Apex Legends gespielt und sogar in Game 1 gespielt. Es hat sie wirklich gut gemacht. However, Sie sehen Apex Warlords kommen in gegen die Fight mit GoNex zu nehmen. Sie würden gut auf den Tag, aber es ist ein Team, das noch viel zu tun hat und wahrscheinlich ist auf der Outside-In, wenn es zu Land kommt.
00:08:09 Und dann sehen wir, natürlich, DMS. Und dann auf World's Edge, wir verwenden Dinge, mit einem Moment, das wir warten müssen. Metafe, kinda. Will Nadisfinn Seer haben was es braucht, um die alten Wäste zu kommen. Seer Leute zu sagen in Mannheim für ihren Erfolg. Sie fühlen sich das so, und es wird wieder eine große Wünschung, mit Exoclant, die auch eine gewisse Wünschung. Es hat auch immerhin die Themen von Exoclant. In dieser letzten Runde, in Amina, sie bekommen eine große Spiel.
00:08:34 Und das hat sie in 6th place gestern. Und das hat sie in 6th place gestern. Und das hat sie in 6th place gestern. Und das hat sie in 6th place gestern. Und das hat sie in 6th place gestern. Und das hat sie in 6th place gestern. Und das hat sie in 6th place gestern.
00:09:03 Ja, der öffentliche Termin ist, natürlich, Praying on the Downfall of Others. Und wir werden sehen, dass wir da jetzt nicht spielen. Aber für die Teams zu spielen, Dinge zu halten, wir haben jetzt gesagt.
Qualifikationsrennen und Team-Fokus
00:09:25
00:09:25 8 Qualification spots here in EMEA. That means the top 8 after the Regional Finals are done are going to be the teams who go to LAN, who go to the Split 2 playoffs in Germany and will get a chance to compete and represent the EMEA region. However, to get there, to get to the Regional Finals, you have to be inside of the top 20 at the end of play today. So when we're looking at this next page, players of the team who are holding on...
00:09:48 mit der letzten Qualifizierungspot in der Region Finale an der Moment. Diese Teams sind der Chasing Pack. Sie sind diejenigen, die sich die Möglichkeit geben. Mit der Matchpoint Format kommt in der Region Finale. Ihr seht ihr A&C Outplay, Nine Lights, Full English. Es ist so tight, ich würde sagen, all den Weg hier. Passion, of course, Disbanding won't be playing heute, aber es ist eine Möglichkeit. Wenn Sie die Game Day heute gewinnen können, wenn Sie eine große Menge Punkte auf dem Board haben, Sie können sich in die Region Finale beherrschen. Und dann können Sie sich auf die Miracle oder Matchpoint beherrschen. Und vielleicht senden Sie sich die Land als auch.
00:10:17 I love that you brought up ANC Outplayed, because they're six points sitting out of qualification right now, but that means they've got to get at least 14th today. And little moments we've seen in these final games, sometimes you go out on an early contest in Game 5 or Game 6, and you're locked in the 15th, and that's that. So people have to be on their toes, especially when it comes to the stakes raised today. And let's zero in on what we can look at for what the stakes are, specifically with what teams in BNC will be going head-to-head.
00:10:46 Big names, like I mentioned, Alliance as well. Nine Lies Esports, ANC Outplay, players on the cusp of making it need big performances. Passion UA, Tron, Max Strafi, Sonya, they've been playing very, very well. Can they keep it up? And of course, a lot of other big names to talk about. We spoke with Young Hong Kong from Danish yesterday. He's going to have a chance to keep it up. Dan, overall though, it's really anybody's game. And you're looking at numbers, most importantly, of what you have to do coming into this to be successful.
00:11:15 The matching numbers we're looking at to advance to regional finals is 52. You can already see 16 teams have already achieved that. So we have, what, 14 teams left all competing for four spots to get to regional finals. And then if you want to advance to split two playoffs, then we're looking at around 84.7, 85 points to be able to qualify for playoffs as well. Now, first and foremost, you just want to get to regional finals so you can give yourself that chance to get to the playoffs. But there are some teams, of course, Alliance and FaZe already secured that playoff spot.
00:11:44 And now they can run rampant here in a lobby. Alliance can really take away some of those points that some of those chasing teams are looking for. And it's a cool thing to look at, Alliance. We'll touch on them a little bit later before we get in the game. But just the way that now with the freedom of knowing we can relax a little bit, maybe we see some interesting things. Maybe we see some practice with Alter or some other elements that they want to prepare for for LAN.
00:12:05 But most importantly, LAN, it's important when you get there. Many teams start the season off, and this team, particularly on set, didn't have a good start. But they took somebody and added them to the roster that actually had won a LAN before, and now things have changed. A scintillating end of the season, potentially, for Blacklist. Yeah, I think it's a very apt saying. Sometimes we say it's not how you start the season, it's how you finish it. And how many teams have we talked about?
00:12:29 mit den letzten zwei Gamedays haben. Sie haben eine 3.2 und 2.2, die haben in den letzten zwei Gamedays gespielt. Sie haben eine 3.2 und 2.2, die haben sie in den nächsten Gamedays gespielt. Sie haben eine 3.2 und 2.2, die haben sie in der nächsten Gamedays gespielt. Sie haben sie in der nächsten Gamedays gespielt, um die Region Finals zu machen, und natürlich, wie sie die Region Finals werden, aber vielleicht mit einem guten Gameday zu machen. Sie haben sie auf die Automatik Qualifizierung gespielt.
00:12:53 It's been a lot of it down to the addition of JMW. Of course, a LAN winner in his own right. Before he joined, the points they put on the board. Gameday 1, 5. Gameday 2, 0. Then it was 10. And then he joins and they go 18 points and 21 points. So a huge amount of points being added since the addition of JMW. And Matchday 6 was an amazing one for them. They got a third, a third, and a second place. But we were asking, right?
00:13:16 Also 2 Top 10 finishes as well, which is a very very solid
00:13:43 Well, a team...
00:14:04 Unlike Blacklist, who might be showing up at the right time for them, is a team that's still a little bit on that bubble. And I'm talking about NIP. They started the season out so well and a lot of hype about getting Zane in there. But Dan, have the results been what they expected finishing off this season? And do they need to feel a little bit wary knowing they're sitting currently outside of a land spot?
00:14:25 Yeah, they have to be one of our teams to watch and they definitely will be wary because they are one of the qualification possible teams for playoffs because they are around that top eight position. But we want to talk today about where they're playing from because they're going to continue to play from Siphon. They played there yesterday on World's Edge and it didn't necessarily go particularly well for them yesterday. This first game on match four, they finished in 20th position.
00:14:48 Maybe not what they would expect, not what we would expect with the stanzas that they set themselves, sadly dying in an early engagement. It was a difficult rotation if you look at where that circle was going to be ending up in general. And if they didn't get the information they would have wanted, it's difficult to choose which kind of choke point you'd go through. But in the end, trying to transition from east to west is never a fun one through Fragment. Now, as they looked into the next game, it was yet again another fight in a zone which wasn't a priority to them. They had to fight from the east to the west after.
00:15:17 Das war's für heute. Ich bin gespannt, ob sie nicht so fühlen.
00:15:36 Natsuki, er war allein in ein Early Engagement, nach zwei seiner Team-Matee zu haben. Er hat sich versucht, er hat sich versucht, zu versuchen, zu versuchen, eine Fight-Or-Flight zu machen. In der Ende war es Flight. Er hat sich versucht, seine Team-Matee zu holen. Und er hat sich versucht, seine Team-Matee zu holen. Und er hat seine Team-Matee zu holen. Und er hat seine Team-Matee zu holen. Er hat sich in den Top-10-Matee zu machen. Und diese Punkte können absoluten sein. Und meine Frage ist, was will...
00:16:05 Will we see the same kind of thing? Will we see differences change for this squad who have to try and really push themselves back into that top take? Because when we look at regional finals and we look at the teams going into regional finals, you want to be ahead of the rest of the competition. You don't want to find yourself struggling and being behind everyone. You want to instead be the leaders of that race. So really impressed with what we've seen so far from NIP throughout the season, but there definitely seems to be some struggles in certain areas.
00:16:34 And there's certainly a team that needs that motivation, needs that energy. Somehow they feed off it. They feed off the crowd at LAN when they're there. They feed off these early contests when they go their way. And Nasky himself said, I need people to doubt me today in a Twitter or an X or whatever, a post that happened just a few moments before broadcast so that he can pop off. I think there are certain players that, yes, they need the spotlight to perform, but sometimes they need a little bit of, you know, adversity.
00:17:02 to really bring the best out of themselves. Some people do do well in adversity situations. So I'm excited to see what NIP can bring and see if they can set up for regional finals being a lot easier than they've made it right now. However, EMEA has had this problem with looking towards LAN and maybe seeing like we might have an EMEA winner. Aurora was the team most recently that we thought could overall take the split two playoffs. But maybe with this new change of Aurora, losing Hardeki, they have lost that spot. And there's a new team.
00:17:32 kann sich die König der König der Europäische König. Und Allianz natürlich hat sich auf das Titel.
Allianz Fokus und Vorbereitung auf LAN
00:18:00
00:18:00 We have just been trying things out, like we've been practicing all things. We've been practicing Pathfinder.
00:18:12 Wir has been experimenting and basically scrimming in LGS. A chance for Effekt to do his damage when Hockies has the IGL, takes it upon himself. Hockies Oswald, really, really good IGL. I'm just listening to him and he just does all of it. He helps a lot being disciplined, having proper schedules. Just keeps us in shape. Because his playstyle is very aggressive and very confident, which I like myself. I like to kill people, I like to push people. The Lions coming over the champion and with that they take first place. I'm very confident we're going to win this product.
00:18:41 Was sind die beste Team in der EU? Ich bin ziemlich glücklich mit unserer Performance. In unserer Meinung, LAN ist alles, was wichtig ist. Und was wir in Pro League machen, sind die Preparation für die LAN.
00:18:55 Certainly a team that has done it better than anyone else and sometimes in a way has done it longer. They've been a longstanding member of EMEA's royalty when it comes to high-level Apex Legends and with the roster swaps, losing Yuki earlier on.
00:19:11 Joining them is unlucky, and Effect, and Hockey's have found this rhythm that so far is putting them in contention for first place yet again. Will that mean that things will change at LAN? Well, certainly on set. They're hoping so, as they consider this Pro League, from Hockey's himself, kind of like just the practice ground for getting ready for LAN, which you know they're looking to hoist up one day.
00:19:31 Ja, 100%. I mean, Allianz have been one of the staple teams of Amir for quite some time. And I love the pickup of Unlucky. I think that he's a great player for them. I think he's a really good anchor for them as well. And I think Allianz are looking very good. And one thing that they're going to want to do, of course, is come first place. Because they still have to put some points on the board today. They still have to make sure that they get the job done. And even though it's looking like they will be champs at the end of today, going into regional finals, holding that top spot, they need to keep the pressure up. They need to keep the energy up and go into regional finals with that same kind of...
00:20:00 Vielen Dank.
00:20:01 It's not just being the king of the region. It's about being the king of the world, especially when we start looking towards Mannheim. So Alliance certainly will be pushing the envelope if they can. For those who are curious about Alliance's journey, though, or maybe NIP, maybe it's Blacklist International. Has JMW really made that big difference? Can you see it live? Well, here's a chance to do so by checking out Face It Watch. By doing this, not only can you watch live streams of the ALGS, you can check out VODs and see multiple POVs to get you more intel on the action.
00:20:31 Bis zum nächsten Mal.
Match Day 9: Hohe Einsätze und POI-Draft
00:20:53
00:20:53 We are back at it. One last hello before we jump into this game day. It's match day nine on set in Gaskin. You know what it means. Stakes are high. Teams will be flying and trying to get themselves as high as possible up this leaderboard. Who will do it though? That's the question I'm going to leave you two to answer as we get ready to jump into game one. Well, here we go then, everybody. Thank you so much, Evan. Always a pleasure to have you at the top of the show. And Dan, now it's time for us to start getting into the action a little bit. And we are set up at the point of the season where...
00:21:21 We're the unfortunate ones who will have to kind of talk through some of these teams who won't make it to regional finals and will have their split come to an end. Yeah, and it's, as I mentioned at the top of the show, there's only four spots available now for regional finals. So it is going to be fighting your very hardest to try and get into one of those four spots. And it can be ripped away from you at any moment as well. If you have one bad game, suddenly someone's going to leapfrog you as well. Consistency is going to be key here, but...
00:21:45 One big game can change everything. We have seen that throughout ALGS history. If you can get that first place, if you can get a crazy amount of kills, like who it is, you're going to be up there in that conversation for getting into Regional Finals. Well, we start today on Stormpoint. Three maps on Stormpoint before we go over to World's Edge for the back three. So we'll have to see if this plays into things a little bit today. But more importantly than where we're starting down, we've got to look at the POI draft, right? How we start off here on Stormpoint. We know what some of the big picks are going to be. And we can see...
00:22:14 Some of them already coming in right at the start of the draft here. Yeah, Mill and Lightning Rod coming in early as expected. NIP playing out of Cenote. We've seen that happen already this season and they had a good amount of success from that POI. So I'm expecting them to be able to get some points on the board from Storm Point.
00:22:30 Down Beast for Dan, and then we've got Passion UA down at Seto Station. Remember, Passion UA are just above that chasing pack. When we talk about playoff spots, they're in seventh position at the moment, so they can really spread themselves out and spread themselves away from the rest of those teams that are chasing them with a good performance here today.
00:22:49 Yeah, there's a lot to keep an eye on here as we go through the draft, isn't it? Because we're obviously talking about Regional Finals making it there, but there's still points to the line for those teams who are trying to get into those qualification spots, and I think you're quite right. Passion U.A., one of those teams who hold one at the moment, will be desperate for a very good day, and they've got a pretty good POI to play from as well. Lions, who we mentioned as well, they're going to be dropping over at Trident, but they will have North Pad to themselves as well. So they've got all of the Northern side as they have had previously. You can see Exo Clan down on Devastated Coast. Not the greatest of POIs for them,
00:23:18 They're a team who are, again, on the cusp, kind of outside looking into the automatic qualification spots at the moment. They'll need a big day here on Stormpoint and need to put some points on the board, even with that slightly weaker POI. Yeah, EXO are 16 points behind Passion UA at the moment, for example. So that is a considerable gap. Considering that Passion UA were able to put 16 points on the board during their first ever week, though, it does show that it is certainly achievable for some of these teams who are trying to chase. So it's not like it's out of the realm of possibility. There are certain teams today who...
00:23:47 So we're gonna have to keep a keen eye on which teams are really putting their best foot forward. Who's gonna roll the dice? Who's gonna change something and maybe go for broke here? Because we have seen so many times teams just, you know, play the same way, play slow. Oh, we could probably get to the final circle, but we don't often see teams try something different, try something new to really give themselves.
00:24:17 die beste Chance für Qualifizierung. Und manchmal müssen Sie, wenn Sie ein Team sind in der BOTTOM 5 sind, Sie müssen etwas anderes finden. Sie können nicht einfach spielen. Es wird ein interessanter Tag für sicher. Und ich denke, das wird ein bisschen schwierig für ein paar Teams heute sein, wenn Sie wollen, das Aggressiv-Play-Style, das Sie sagen wollen, und schauen für K.P. auf den Weg in die Zone, um sie zu gewinnen, um sie zu gewinnen, um sie zu gewinnen, um sie zu gewinnen, um sie zu gewinnen, um sie zu gewinnen, um sie zu gewinnen, um sie zu gewinnen, um sie zu gewinnen, um sie zu gewinnen, um sie zu gewinnen, um sie zu gewinnen und zu gewinnen.
00:24:44 Ich glaube, dass wir mit Seer in den Meta haben, es fühlt sich wie es stals, es auch länger länger als es hat. Once der Exhibit geht, es ist so schwierig, die Abilität zu close die Gap schnell zu bekommen, das erste Knochen zu bekommen. Und das ist das, was man manchmal sieht, dass es ein bisschen scrappier als früher. So, vielleicht ist das Aggressiv-Play-Style ein bisschen schwierig zu machen, aber wenn man kann, wenn man ein Weg zu machen kann, kann es auch eine Route zu schaffen. Hier geht es dann, die letzte Gameday der Regular-Season, bevor wir in den Regional-Finals gehen.
Spielverlauf und Strategische Beobachtungen
00:25:14
00:25:14 Stormpoint zu starten mit heute, Dan. Und ich muss sagen, Happy Birthday, by the way, für heute.
00:25:43 Ich fühle ihn. Es gibt ihm das Energie. Wie viele Mal haben wir gesehen, Natsuki, haben eine BAD-Match-Week und dann gehen in die nächste und gewinnen die ganze Sache. Ich denke, die NIP sind eine andere Beasts hier heute. Ja, sie werden sie lockt in, was ich sage heute ein bisschen, weil Teams müssen sie lockt in sein. Nein, Mistakes sind wirklich allowed, zu passieren in diesem Jahr, als wir, uh, wehre our attention von den anderen Seite und Sonnate, um Nordpad und Trident, das ist, wo Allianz wird all ihre Loot at dem momenten werden. Und sie werden...
00:26:12 Their job today is not just...
00:26:14 ...to play well, obviously, and put points on the board. But they want to win the Pro League. They want to be the champions of EMEA going into the LAN event. So a lot of work for them to do, of course, here to kind of solidify their spot at the top of the table. Maybe create a little bit of a gap as well going into Regional Finals. And how about that for a circle, for NIP, for their first game on Stormpoint. It is going southwest. But are they going to know about it? I don't know if they've got a ring console. And remember, we saw this a couple of weeks ago in Pro League, where NIP dropped Cenote. The zone started to...
00:26:44 Und dann haben sie gebeten zu den Pulp. Es waren schon Teams in der Position, und sie waren schon aufgarten. So sie haben vielleicht zu schauen, diese Skies hier zu sein und wissen, dass andere Teams vielleicht vor ihnen kommen.
00:26:56 Yeah, NIP are all over the place and it is almost a direct replica.
00:27:25 Das Ring-Console wieder!
00:27:54 Und wir sehen uns auch ein paar Pathfinders, Katalyst, Fuse, Caustic, auch ein paar Selektionen von verschiedenen Legends befinden sich in verschiedene Rollen für die Teams. Nylize eSports ist jetzt ein Team, das ist jetzt ein Team, die sich in die Region Finals zu sehen, und sie werden einen guten Tag. Sie sind ein Team, ich würde sagen, ein bisschen in den letzten Splitt, und ich denke...
00:28:16 A team who certainly has the ability to overtake some of the teams in front of them to secure that regional final spot. And I would say as well, maybe a little bit of Dark Horse if it comes to regional final and Matchpoint, because they've shown if they get to endgames, they have the ability to win them. I think there are a few teams as well that have found victories throughout the season, but maybe aren't at the top of the leaderboards. And you're completely right, Matchpoint is going to change everything. Now, this is what we were talking about, the southwest of the map. FA Kids and NIP currently having a scrap, and it's not just those two teams in the area. Nasky's gone down, NIP have to be careful.
00:28:45 Oh, NIP are going to have to be careful indeed. And the question is, do they have the ability to get the res off at the moment? Are they going to be able to get Natsuki back to his feet? Or is it going to be another Cenote-style zone where they're not going to be able to play it out as their POI and really look back on this one with a little bit of a...
00:29:02 Die Antwort ist ja, weil Natsuki ist, dass Natsuki hat. Zidane wird das Entry Frag gewonnen haben. Wir haben gesagt, was er ein paar Gameday hat. Er war die Lobby in Kills. Er war so, so aggressiv. Und wieder, er hat das Opening Damage gett das Opening Kill. Und NIP jetzt, obwohl sie eine gute Spot-In-Zone haben, haben sie zu halten als ein 2.
00:29:22 And FA Kids, who are five points behind NIP in the overall leaderboards at the moment, what a big fight that is to win, to not only give yourself the extra point in today's matchday, but also restrict the amount of points that one of your direct competitors are able to achieve as well by just taking out one of their players and forcing them to play as a duo for the rest of this game. Maybe, unless of course they can get Natsuki back up. Now we did see yesterday NIP get Zayn back up, for example, when he went on to get top 10 and get four kills. So it's not like it's all doom and gloom yet.
00:29:52 für NIP. Aber es scheint zu sein, wie eine Replication der anderen Woche, wenn sie alle spüren, unabhängig von der Lootung und alle in der Cenote, und dann schließlich fallen. Ja, das ist eine interessante Frage, weil du das Rez gesagt hast, du hast die Möglichkeit, die Spieler zu bekommen, aber das Problem ist, mit so vielen Teams schon in Cenote und so vielen Buildings schon schon...
00:30:11 You know, with players and teams inside of them, even being able to get a mobile res down, if you can find one and get it off, it's going to be very, very difficult to do. So, NIP on the back foot straight away. Elsewhere inside a zone at the moment, you've got Nine Lines who are playing the tunnel. You've got DMS who are inside of Cenote. FA Kids who we saw get that opening knock. Danish are there. Passion UA are there. ANC outplayed are playing just outside of Cenote at the moment. And wrapping from the south side is going to be Vex. So, a lot of teams already in the vicinity. Only four teams, five teams, excuse me, outside of the second zone at the moment.
00:30:40 Dan, so I think you're starting to see the style of play that we can expect today. Everyone knows that points are at a premium, and certainly these first few games are going to be pretty risk adverse. Yeah, I was going to say, it's easier to say who isn't in the zone right now because of how quickly everyone has transitioned in. You're right, when you get a zone like this, though, that is a bit more predictable and it is a very harsh pull towards one of the areas of the map, everyone's going to be banking on it being in Cenote or the surrounding areas, of course.
00:31:05 It can depend where you commit to and where that zone will shift. If it does go a little bit more west, it can pull away from some of those buildings. It can also end in some of the rock formations as well. So you have to have a good idea of your zone knowledge. You need to know which positions you are going to play. But sometimes you don't get to play the position you want to because you could be a little bit later. If you're NIP, for example, they didn't even get a chance to really choose their position because all the other spots have been taken.
00:31:30 Well, for now, not going to be too much action playing. Not too many teams going to be engaging on the edge of zone as well. I mean, the next fight you're probably looking at happening just on the edge of zone. Maybe Alliance and GG might have a little look at each other as the GG come through the spider cave at the moment. The Alliance are over at the mill. The Alliance? Alliance are at the mill. The Alliance. The Alliance. It sounds very... I was going to say evil, but it could be a good Alliance.
00:31:54 So Alliance, anyway, are going to be having a little poke and maybe a little prod at GG. But they might be moving up onto Blacklist International instead. And it looks like they're trying to do that as well. They have to be careful not to get pinched in.
00:32:05 Sie sehen, NIP-AZA-2 zu werden von Vex. Und leider, Zayn hat sich geblieben. So es sieht aus, dass NIP-Eliminated erst wird. Just wie wir auf World's Edge gesehen haben. Und sie sind in der ersten Position geblieben. So jetzt Vex, auf der Rückseite von Zidane und den Rest von FA-Kids, die werden vollständig beherrscht. FA-Kids looking to continue.
00:32:30 So look for KP where it does become available. But not overextending too much in a position where they will give up their building that they want to play. You can see there will be slightly outside of zone for now. Vex have been eliminated, like you say. Unlucky has gone down for Alliance as well. So on the northern side of zone, like we were talking about, that scuffle is still continuing.
Taktische Manöver und Team-Eliminierungen
00:32:47
00:32:47 Ich meine, für NIP, das wird wirklich, wirklich hart sein. Es wird wieder mit der Cenote-Zone geholfen. Wenn man sich zurückkehren, wenn man die Spiele zurückkehren kann, kann man das nicht passieren können. Aber es hat wieder passiert. Das ist Blacklist International, das Team, die ich vorhin gesagt habe, bevor wir hier haben, hier, Dan, die letzten zwei Gameday haben, haben sie gescheitert.
00:33:05 They've really come from out of nowhere, like a phoenix rising from the ashes, to be honest, because it looked like it was going to be all doom and gloom, but with their recent performances, suddenly now they are a squad who is looking like a real threat to be competing, not just at regional finals, but even further than that, and potentially even playoffs. So, in this game in particular, you can see they were kind of having some popshots towards the remainder of Alliance, who were just wandering past them. Players are also nearby as well. At the moment, they have the high ground, and they've got...
00:33:33 Ich habe die Möglichkeit, mit dem Watsom zu arbeiten.
00:33:56 Yeah, was I was saying when it could pull a little bit further west, which does really hurt those teams that committed to the Cenote buildings as GG now committing to a fight. Dukes has gone down and they have a 3-2 lead here. Actually, it's 3 versus 1, in fact, they're able to get two players down. So sadly, the opposing team are going to have to retreat here and Game Gladiators are going to be in the ascendancy looking to try and pick up more KP. Yeah, Fito's trying to just get away. He's the last remaining player here of players and...
00:34:21 GG, hier in eine sehr, sehr gute Spot, in den overallen Stand-Inz, an der Moment ist, zu qualifizieren für Lant. Wir sind zu qualifizieren für mehr KP, an der Moment ist, von Fittier zu finden, das letzte Player alive ist. Der SeerQ ist zu kommen, das wird die Position geben. Ich bin nicht sicher, dass er sich nicht ganz gut hat, aber der Spieler hat es geschafft, aber er wird es geschafft, und er wird es geschafft, für ein bisschen länger. Aber GG ist eine der Highlights, ich denke, dieses Split ist wirklich, wirklich consistent, über die Gamedays. Ja, ich denke, wenn GG ist, dass...
00:34:46 Und ich denke, dass GG ist ein fantastisches Team zu sehen, wie sie eigentlich spielen und wie sie die Chemistrie ist für sie, seit sie formen. Ich bin sehr impressed mit dem, was sie erreicht haben so far. Und ich bin wirklich interessiert...
00:35:10 Wie soll das das gehen? Wenn sie zu den Play-Offs werden, werden sie ein Team zu spielen? Wir haben so viel EMEA gesehen, aber wenn sie zu der International-Stage sind, dann wird sie vielleicht nicht mehr mit anderen Regionen gewonnen. Wir werden sehen, ob GG ist vielleicht eine andere Gruppe, wenn es das Thema gibt.
00:35:29 Rats are in a good spot in zone right now. They do have the Triton, which gives them a little bit more cover as well, which is just going to protect one of their, essentially their backs from one of the LOSs. They're going to have to just replace it a little bit. You see Mania has been tasked with wedging it in, full Austin Power style, to this little tunnel here. Managed to just complete that beautifully. Now their backs will be covered as well. And you can see in the top left on the map overhead at the moment, what a good spot they do have. They're going to be able to maybe catch a lot of these teams actually who are going to be rotating.
00:35:58 Yeah, these were the kind of rock formations I was talking about, and I'm impressed that Outblade have created so much space. All three of them are just pressuring.
00:36:27 Und das bedeutet, dass sie ein Endgame für sich selbst machen können. Sie sind sicher, dass alle anderen zu kämpfen haben, auf der Easternen Seite zu kämpfen. Und in dem Moment, die die Entirete der Westen halten. Der einzige Worte ist, dass die Forbidden, wenn die Forbidden-Arriven kommen.
00:36:49 That one squad off the top, remember it was Blacklist International who had this height because of the Watson. But thankfully, if you have a Watson and you've got a Gen, no odds are really going to take you down off of this height. Yeah, you're quite right. It's going to be a very much more difficult task when you see those missiles getting eaten up by that generator. Blacklist International still holding that height. You can see Alliance are trying to pressure them at the moment. Alliance is actually going to try and pressure the team, which is going to be below them.
00:37:14 Es gibt 73 E-Sports. Allianz ist bereits auf 4 Red Evos. Der Path in ist fantastisch auf der Weg in, um das Damage zu bekommen. Und auch die Evo-Opportunität. Sie können diese Fights nehmen, dass sie sich nicht weitergehen können. 73 E-Sports werden und Allianz werden ihren 1st K.P. der Tag.
00:37:31 That's a massive win for Allianz. Now this is where all the commotion is happening at the moment. You can see Exo kind of between two squads right now and very difficult for them to try and escape, but they're doing their darndest to survive as FA Kids, who have been a very big presence on this side of the map, still hold the southern side and still being a nuisance to these other squads.
00:37:49 ExoClan Eliminated, sie versuchen ihren Weg in die Zone. Fakid ist ein bisschen zu tun. Sie sehen, Kainer wird ein paar Sekunden geben. Und Zidane wird auch ein Batterie geben. So, obwohl die Spieler nur in fronte sind, sie haben viel mehr Arbeit zu tun. Fakid, es gibt noch fünf Teamen, außer der Zone zu tun. Allianz wird auch ein paar Zonen geben. Aber es sieht aus, dass sie ein Spieler werden können. Und das wird...
00:38:14 Unlucky kommt zurück zu seinen Feet, aber leider ist der Effekt schon fertig. Es gibt noch einen Baller auf Height und Hackes wird das Challenge sein. Er wird sagen, ich will euch auf das Height sein. Es ist Bloodhound vs Path und Park wird die win. Das ist eine der Vorteil von der Pathfinder zu spielen, dass es in das Wichtigste ist, dass es in das Wichtigste sein. Und Blacklist International wird das Wichtigste gehen. So Allianz wird das Wichtigste spielen, die Remainder als ein 2.
00:38:35 Ich würde sagen, wenn sie ein Mobi haben, sie haben die Möglichkeit, zu kommen. Weil sie das Height haben, wird es schwierig für jemanden zu stoppen, Rezingen hier zu kommen. So Allianz sollte wieder zurückkommen, wenn die Gaming Gladiators erkennen und versuchen es zu pushen. Aber ich glaube, Gaming Gladiators haben genug zu denken. Es gibt jetzt 9 Lies auf der South-East dieser Map. Sie sind gegen die F.A. Kids, die so gut sind auf der South-East sind, aber sie haben viel zu tun.
00:38:57 Ja, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr.
00:39:22 We'll be able to get that res. We'll pick up yet more KP and we'll start to clear their side of the zone a little bit more. Yeah, GG pushed straight away as soon as they saw that mobile res come down. And sadly, Alliance were ready for it. And Alliance now have the ability to go up into the skies here and try and find a position because they have to use the ability to go up into the air. They have to use the evac tower because the zone is starting to come in now. They don't have much option to play because if they go on the east side, there's going to be about four teams joining them here. So they might have to attack from the north.
00:39:52 Die DMS sind von der South-East, aber es wird ein paar Teams vorhanden werden. Die DMS sind in Ordnung. Die Zone ist in Ordnung, und das ist einfach wie die Gauntlet für sie. Und sie versuchen die Grapple zu nutzen.
00:40:04 Still zwei Teams hier, PassionUA und 3D Maxx, aber nur eine von ihnen werden können. Und es wird PassionUA, die wir schon erwähnt haben.
00:40:33 Sie sind in einen der Top-8-Spots, aber es sieht aus wie sie vielleicht kommen zu einem Ende. Sie sind bei ANC Outplayed, die noch nicht in die Zone sind. ANC Outplayed ist, übrigens noch der Favourite zu gewinnen, mit der Positionen, die sie für ein paar Zeit haben. Aber jetzt schauen wir uns auf die East, weil Rats, Stay Healthy, Allianz und Forbidden sind alle in dieser North-East-Area.
00:40:59 Ja, der Alliance hat sich auch aufhören, aber ich glaube, es ist ein Intentional split-up. Ich glaube, es war jeder Mann für sich selbst. Und dann haben wir alle drei hier stehen. Und Hackes ist wirklich ein Thorn in der Seite für Rats jetzt. Aber er muss sich bewusst sein, wo sie gerade sitzen sitzen und wo sie sitzen sitzen.
00:41:25 But the good thing is, he's a Pathfinder, right? He can, if he wants to, zip across and join his teammates a little bit later. Yeah, I kind of like this, to be honest with you, right? He's within zip distance. He's within the gun distance of his two teammates. And even though he's a little bit further out now, he is pressuring rats in this corner and pressuring anyone who is on the west side of this zone. So Alliance spreading themselves across the map very strongly at the moment should be able to pick up KP with the great positions they have up on height. And Hakashi just doing so much damage at the moment.
Finales Gefecht und Spielentscheidung
00:41:54
00:41:54 Even though he's got the red Evo, if it went up any higher, he would be pretty close to getting leveled up to, I don't know, what, Platinum? Just so much height that they have here and so much angles, but there's another Pathfinder Zip that is going to go down to try and allow rats to traverse across the map. But now Alliance have to turn their attention to the full English that are below them as well. Forbidden also moving from north down to a little bit further south. But Alliance just have so much high ground right now to work with, but they are well aware that full English are near them, and I think inside this kind of cave formation.
00:42:22 Rats have been eliminated. We're down to five squads now as we see a couple more Nox coming in. Maniac gets one onto Calamitous. And the Bangult now will come down to try and force Alliance away. Although a little bit of an exchange.
00:42:35 Ja, das ist wirklich eine große Herausforderung. Ja, das ist wirklich eine große Herausforderung. Wenn es um EMEA ist, werden die EMEA auf der Region, als wir schon gesehen haben.
00:42:55 But they have to worry about ANC Outplayed. Yes, they took down Full English, and yes, they can continue to push on, but they need to be thinking about other teams after this. But at the moment, they still have to get the final remaining players, which they do achieve, and now it is four teams remaining. ANC Outplayed, Alliance, Forbidden, and Passion UA. ANC Outplayed this whole time, by the way. I've just been watching all of this happen. They've been inside of this three...
00:43:17 Du kannst hier sehen, dass sie nur Blu Armour auf dem Schecks haben, welches sich die Möglichkeit haben, wie sie die Möglichkeit haben, oder die Möglichkeit haben, die sie in diesem Spiel gehabt haben. So auf der Seite des Schrauben, Sie sehen die Passion UA. Sie müssen das Open-Ground gehen. No Pathfinder für sie. However, sie haben eine Bangalore. Forbidden as well. Sie werden sie in front of sie. Sie versuchen ein wenig zu tun.
00:43:43 Und dann Allianz jetzt, die werden jetzt noch ein bisschen mehr Platz nehmen. Das ist wie wir jetzt hier, die Zone starte zu werden, sehr, sehr schnell. Ja, ich denke, die Armour difference ist jetzt der größte Faktor hier in dieser Final Circle, als Haku hat jetzt gerade nach dem Ring versucht, zu versuchen, die Forbidden zu gehen, und jetzt Pasha und U.A. sind jetzt auf den Weg zu gehen. Und Allianz wird jetzt beherrscht. Sie haben die Healthiest Armour, sie haben arguably eine bessere Position, die jetzt auf den Weg zu gehen. Und Allianz sollte diese zwei Teams beherrschen, und dann kann diese beiden Team in die Flasche machen und dann clean up die Pieces.
00:44:12 This is very, very interesting, though, because Passion UA, they're on the bottom. No gen available for another 20%, though, and no All Excels to pop to stop them getting hit by grenades. But on the top of the roof is going to be Alliance. So you can see a little bit of a spread at the moment. Inside of the building is going to be ANC Outplayed. On the roof is going to be Alliance. And then just underneath is going to be Passion UA. It is a cake, which doesn't taste too good for two teams, but one of them is their favorite flavor.
00:44:39 Hackers hat sich an Angle genommen, um die Power Finder zu bringen, um einen anderen Position zu bringen, um einen anderen Sight-Line zu arbeiten. Das sollte Allianz sein sein, aber wir müssen etwas von einem anderen Squad zu versuchen. Sie sehen, dass sie auf den Hackers zu versuchen, ob sie das Knochen kann. Aber mit dem Zip-Line down ist, er wird erneut sein, um ihn zu sein, wenn er muss.
00:45:00 Looks like that's exactly what they have done. And now they're gonna drop onto the Passion UA underneath. They get the knock. They're looking for the second as well. Shouldn't be able to get the reset. It's a 3v3 here. And here come ANC outplayed. Unlucky with some shots. Passion UA completely eliminated. It's up to Hackett. And Effect, the last man alive, gets one. It's a 1v1.
00:45:17 Oh, and it was secondary from that Dark Veil to be able to escape, to get out of that building and to be able to force Alliance to have to then take the fight.
00:45:35 mit der Squaden unter ihnen. Sadly, für sie, Passion Uwe, hat genug damage gemacht, um den Rest von Outplay zu pushen. Aber ohne Dark Veil, Allianz gewinnen das Spiel, ich denke, every single time. Aber die Faktor-Outplay war, sie waren able zu escape, repositionen, und reconsideren, wie sie in der Kampf waren. Even wenn ihre Armors nicht auf die Reds waren, sie waren able, nur bei der Zeit, und die Perfect Moment.
00:45:56 Ja, es war ein sehr guter Beispiel, wie wenn du in die Position zu 3rd part in der Final Fight hast, du hast sofort sofort zu gehen. Even wenn du nicht full health hast, wenn du auch die anderen Team wirst, wenn du auch die andere Team wirst, wenn du die Gap schnell genug hast, dass sie nicht die Armour swap nicht mehr haben, sie nicht mehr haben, dann ist das wo dein Armour advantage, dann ist das wo dein Armour advantage zu dissipate, und es wird ein bisschen mehr von einem einfachen Spielfeld. So, du bist recht, die Dark Veil zu escape, das ist der Grund, was der Grund, was der Grund, was der Grund, was der Grund, was der Grund, was der Grund, was der Grund, was der Grund, was der Grund,
00:46:24 But ANC outplayed, it's a great game, number one, of course, winning it. But I think Alliance will be very, very happy, as will Passion UA, because both of them not only put points in the ball from placement, but I'm pretty sure got some good KP as well. Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if Alliance actually topped the leaderboard still with the amount of kills they were able to get. And they might essentially have won that game, you know, just through the amount of points they acquired. But we can have a look at the match results now to get confirmation.
Allianz dominiert Spiel 1, NIP kämpft erneut
00:46:45
00:46:45 und sehen wie viele Kills Allianz konnte. Aber für Outplayed haben sie das Position in der gesamten Spiel. Es war ein bisschen Dicey nach dem Ende, aber Dark Veil saved ihre Bacon, aber es war 16 Kills für Allianz, so sie wirklich noch kommen als Winters in meinen Augen. 25 Points für Match 1. Ja, es ist ein Monster-Games von Allianz. Die 2nd-Place, mit den 16 Kills, ist genau wie man, ich würde sagen, wie ein Mark, richtig, richtig, richtig, richtig.
00:47:14 Final Game Day before we head to Regional Finals, especially when you're in the position where you want to call yourselves the champions of EMEA at the end of it. Elsewhere, though, it's the NIP disaster story at Cenote again, with one player getting picked off, even when they had that zone. Yes, they didn't have Beacon, but again, it's a game they will look back at, Dan. It's a game they will look back at and not be happy with how it went.
00:47:35 Ja, ich frage mich, was man kann, was man zu tun, um das zu stoppen? Man muss sich vielleicht sehr bewusst sein, oder man muss sich einfach eine Ring-Konsole machen, um das zu verändern. Aber wir können über die Teams, die Top-3 haben. Ich meine, Outplay, eine 1st-Place für sie sind. Sie sind 22nd im Moment in den Overalls. Sie sind eine dieser Teams, die für eine Regional-Spot kämpft.
00:47:56 And a win is going to put you up there and is really going to leapfrog those other teams that are in that top 20 and put them in that conversation. If they can be consistent now for the rest of the day, we might see outplayed in Regional Finals. Fascinating, right? Let's look at the three teams we have in that top three after game number one, and all of them have different stories. Alliance trying to win the thing. You've got ANC outplayed who are trying to force their way into the top 20. I mean, it's fantastic. It means that everybody in this lobby at the moment has a story that they're chasing.
00:48:23 Wir werden sehen, nach dem break, ob diese Geschichte weitergehen wird, als wenn wir zurückkommen haben, wir haben Nr. 2, auf Stormpoint.
ALGS Matchday 9: Spiel 2 startet mit Challenger Circuit Ankündigung
00:50:05
00:50:05 is the official PC and monitor partner of the Apex Legends Global Series.
00:50:13 Well, welcome back here to Game 2 of our ALGS Matchday 9. I'm Rain Day here with Dan Gaskin, and it's time to get into the action again. But a recap for those who, in that minute and a half, if you've just joined us, Alliance took a massive game all the way up to second place, where ANC outplayed, who just had better position throughout the entirety of it. You called it, Dan, and Mark alongside you took the W there.
00:50:36 Ja, und ich dachte, dass Allianz konnte das W auswählen werden, denn obwohl Anc Outplay hatte die beste Position throughout die ganze Zeit, als Allianz konnte das Nord-Northern-Side und die Armors haben und die Presence haben, und dann die Positionen über die anderen Teams haben, war es sicher eine Allianz-Viktion. Aber im Endeffekt war es ein Dark Veil, um die Clutches der Allianz zu helfen und um die Allianz zu kämpfen, um die Team zu kämpfen, um sie zu kämpfen, um sie zu kämpfen und zu kämpfen, um sie zu kämpfen.
00:51:03 Allianz, sie waren nicht wirklich able, dass sie das Spiel gegen die Team unter ihnen helfen können. Und es war das Dark Veil da, um sie zu helfen. Allianz hat es gut gemacht, um die Team unter ihnen zu nehmen. Aber dann, als sie ihre Shields verändert, als sie sich in die Lootboxen geändert haben, leider, Outplayed kam in den richtigen Zeit, um die Pieces zu gewinnen. Und was ein wichtiges Spiel für Outplayed ist. Sie sind jetzt 22nd in den Overalls, um die Region Finale zu erreichen.
00:51:30 Und eine performance wie das ist, wird dir viel zufrieden sein. Eine der schlimmsten Worte zu tun in einem Matchday wie dieser ist, die schnell zu warten und warten. Und dann haben Sie einen anderen Match, als auch, wo die Stakes sind sogar höher. Und Sie haben vielleicht ein Minutes oder zwei Minuten von Gameplay zu haben. Und sie haben sie auch gespielt. Sie haben das erste Matchday, die sie verletzten. Seitdem, fünf Punkte, sechs Punkte, zwei Punkte und ein Punkt, overall.
00:51:54 Signifying a 19th place in their latest matchday. They've got to change things and get back to how they started. So far a win in Game 1 will certainly do that. As we head into Game 2. Just a big shout out to the Challenger Circuit. July 20th to the 22nd it will take place. Registration closes on July 17th. So head to Battlefly.com to sign up. Great stories all around the Challenger Circuit.
00:52:17 We talked to a few players who are just premiering here in the ALGS yesterday, such as Atenham, and you can see stars in the process of being made. We'll hope to continue to see more of those as Hubatt passes on. Fun fact here, coming Reindeer from Production as well, Alliance just got 26 kills in total yesterday, and they've just achieved 61% of that in one match. So that shows the difference we've just seen in how much of a mammoth game Alliance just put on.
00:52:42 We saw that segment at the start of the show where they really were saying, we want to make a statement, we want to be able to come first, and with a game like that, they really are just stepping up to the plate and showing what a dominant force they are. It felt like Alliance 2, they do have a lot of motivation on either side, right? It's to win, it's also to prove people wrong. I know NIP and Nasky had mentioned I want doubters, but I feel like Alliance, in a similar way, has cultivated...
00:53:09 So good that people have expected them to win already. They haven't. And that's where I think you do have a little bit of a chip on your shoulder. People doubting us. No, we can do this. We do have what it takes to take an overall championship at LAN. Not only are we going to get there, we're going to get there in style winning Pro League. And that's obviously very, very important for them. And on the flip side too, you know, Mark had mentioned it. Just so many different stories on the opposite side. People trying to get into regional finals, which is where ANC Outplayed are playing lights out.
00:53:35 They're a zone team. They love setting up early, so we'll see if they can mimic their performance here in Game 2.
00:53:42 Well, this time NIP do have a Ring Console, as Sonote, but they're going to get the news that they have to go all the way northwest, but I think that's going to be better than just sadly losing a member whilst you're split up in the early game, so maybe that's good news for NIP. As for Outplayed, who are dropping over towards the mill, they did have a Ring Console as well, so they're going to know they need to move northwest too. It could be a downed beast finish, it could also be a shift over towards the trenches, even could pull towards checkpoint, but I imagine that we'll learn a lot.
00:54:10 from the likes of Danish and Blacklist International and Alliance, who are up in Northpad, who are going to be the three teams that have priority to the zone here. So that's really good news for a team like Danish, for example. We were talking about them at the top of the show. They're in that kind of bubble of teams that can secure themselves playoffs or certainly be in those playoff positions going into regional finals.
00:54:31 Only Confidence from young Hong Kong, and we found out that was his SoundCloud name, and he lived in Hong Kong for a couple of years. I mean, what a story, great interview as well, and halftime showcase of one of my favorite new players coming into the ALGS, really in full force this split.
00:54:49 But, of course, Danish sitting there with Blacklist International, another team we highlight, and ANC outplayed already in the mix. So we talked about them having an early rotate, Dan. As we take a look at the top-down overview of these teams, what stands out to you besides the teams in a good spot? Who maybe has a tough spot here, a tough rotate to get into this zone and find a way?
00:55:06 Well, of course, any of the teams that are on this eastern side, players, Exoclan, FullEnglish, they're going to struggle with the amount of choke points you have to go through and you're going to be last to zone. And with Blackness International and Outplayed moving that quickly to DownBeast, I think that tells you enough of where they think it's going to be finishing. And with a zone like this, it often does shift very far into that northwest corner, into DownBeast.
00:55:26 You're going to have maybe six teams that can get a spot to play and then after that you just have to kind of accept that you're going to be in one of the surrounding buildings and you hope for a weird zone shift or to be able to force your way in later. Maybe go for a crazy evac tower to try and land on the top and take a fight against a team that might be weak because look at the shields. I mean it's whites, it's blues, all the early movers have not been able to get that loot. They've not been able to get those shields up.
00:55:51 Das ist ein Vorteil, wenn man einen Reden kann, wenn man einen Reden kann, wenn man einen Räumen kann, wenn man einen Räumen kann, wenn man einen Räumen kann, wenn man einen Räumen kann, wenn man einen Räumen kann, wenn man einen Räumen kann, wenn man einen Räumen kann, wenn man einen Räumen kann, wenn man einen Räumen kann, wenn man einen Räumen kann, wenn man einen Räumen kann, wenn man einen Räumen kann, wenn man einen Räumen kann.
00:56:14 Our pros can do it, but having a Sentinel, having a G7, having a 30-30 as well makes a big difference on if you're able to impact some of these rotating players and get up to those purples a lot easier. Zidane saying, Nemesis will do just fine for me. We saw Effect and Haki's doing some work with that as well. Zidane, one of our top kill leaders in all of EMEA. FA Kids looking to continue to make a run here as just an Arc Star shutting down any potential aggressiveness.
00:56:42 Unter dem Topf der Brücke für jetzt von J7.
00:56:45 Well, Forbidden just got taken out in the killfeed as well. So they're gonna be the first team to drop here. Remember, we're competing with only 19 squads as Passion are no longer a roster. But FA Kids, they've done a lot of damage to the first player, but they are gonna be able to even it up. That is Zidane doing what Zidane does best. We need Zidane to be able to perform like that if FA Kids are gonna succeed in this fight. This is one way to find some shielding as well. It's a little risky because, of course, as teams start to rotate more and more and more, the third party becomes more possible. Babylons...
00:57:14 He goes down, but he gets picked right back up. And Denzei, with the pressure from Fuse, it's going to make it difficult to push around this corner, and they know it. So Vex, maybe realizing an opportunity here to put a punishment on Kyner. Babylons gets back up, and with just 25 health to his name and a couple of shields, finds one, maybe two kills, and that's FA Kids out of there.
00:57:37 Es war ein tolles Lated-Fight, das ist gut für Vex. Sie sehen, dass sie einfach nur auf den Momenten spürten. Aber sie haben die ganze Zeit, die auf der Seite der Seite zu dieser Seite. Es ist eigentlich ein sehr quiet und peacefules Rotation für sie zu der nächsten Zone. Aber als sie da sind, das ist, wenn sie sich da ein bisschen schwierig werden. Es ist wie, du starten in den niceen Bereichen und dann in Mordor wirst. Und du hast, dass Smeagol's da sein, um es zu zeigen.
00:58:06 Ich glaube, es ist auch immer, wenn du da bist. Es ist auch immer, wenn du da bist, dass du da bist. Es ist lustig, du sagst, wir haben einen Spieler, der L.O.T.R., und ich glaube, Tiff calledet Lord of the Rings den anderen Tag. Das ist zwei in a row für uns auf den ALGS. Es muss sein...
00:58:22 Also, big fun aside, if you're a fan of The Boys, I could not believe Karl Urban was in Lord of the Rings. I totally forgot that Billy Butcher was actually the lead writer of the Rohirrim. I had no idea. And I'm like, that's a different person. But that fun aside there, Lord of the Rings is with us no matter what. Those darn actors playing different characters just catching us off guard, eh?
NIP's Schwierigkeiten in Stormpoint, Danish sichert sich Priorität
00:58:49
00:58:49 Ja, ja, es ist wirklich brilliant, die Talent, die wir sehen über die Acting-Welt haben. Anyway, jetzt zurück zu den ALGS-Welt. Wir haben nur vier Teams, die außerhalb dieser Next-Circle haben. Players, 73 Esports, Allianz ist einfach außerhalb der Seite, und Vex, natürlich, die wir schon erwähnt haben. Als wir die Journey von N.I.P., sie waren able zu bekommen, sie waren able zu lösen, sie waren able zu spielen, sie waren able zu spielen, und sie finden sich in Checkpoint zu finden. Die Zone ist, glaube ich, auf die Zonung.
00:59:18 Und wir werden noch mehr Informationen auf das sehr schnell. Und da ist das Konfirmation auf unsere Screens, und du kannst es auch sehen. So NIP wird weiterhin weitergehen, das ist etwas, was sie gestorben hat, aber vielleicht Stormpoint wird ein bisschen anders für sie hier. Sie haben gut Armour, haben sie gelernt von den Fehler sie hatten?
00:59:36 And I think it's an interesting point you bring up around east to west. You mentioned earlier on talking about their journey yesterday, but I wonder if there's something more to that in terms of Apex as well. Hot zones, something that designers talked about quite heavily. They can see where most fights occur in these maps. And sometimes you've seen these huge map over changes that shift where those hot zones are because they feel maybe an area is a little bit too tough to rotate from. Sometimes it happens to be, potentially, just the luck of the draw, maybe in east to west.
01:00:04 Wir sehen, viele Dinge passieren von South zu Nord. Aber in I.P., und das Punkt, bringt etwas ganz interessant. Will es verändern hier? Lions nicht mehr verändern. Aber was passiert in Game 1? Sie sind in 1st place. 31 Punkte, als von jetzt. So, sie sind sehr gut, und sie sind in die Best-Foot-Fahrer zu gewinnen, das Pro-League so far.
01:00:29 Und hier sind die Later Rivals, der Punched-Last-Minute-Ticket in die Downbeast. Und woher du gehst?
01:00:35 Du hast ein wenig mehr Platz zu arbeiten, oder haben Sie? Amphi hat sich verloren, so Natsuki und Zayn jetzt haben sie zu arbeiten. Natsuki hat sich ein paar Werteilungen gemacht. Und das ist was ich schon erwähnt, wenn du hier in der Zeit kommst, wenn du nicht in der Zeit kommst, dann gibt es so viele Teams, die sich auf dich schauen. N.I.P., sie werden vielleicht die Chance zu reset, aber eine der Vorteil von einem anderen Team zu erreichen ist, dass niemand kommt zu kämpfen, weil niemand will auf die Position zu verlieren. Und das ist nur das Problem, auch.
01:01:02 Like you mentioned, having to use so many resources to get in. If pressure comes again, they're going to be out. No Rolling Thunder to deal with. They still have to hit medkits, both of them. Zane's doing his best to hold this. And Natsky is separated from the squad, as a Pathfinder should, being able to just give him a little bit more of an option. But a full silence comes out. Natsky looking to try to push off that grapple in. PK outs. Misses it. Ledge will be...
01:01:26 The first opponent that he has to go against, and it will not work out. NIP again with Amphi, and he's just biding his time. Very patient, but they're going to lose another one, and this is just a numbers game. It's not going to be enough. NIP will be eliminated off of that treacherous down beast rotation that happened just too late.
01:01:42 There was a Dark Veil that saved ANC Outplayed in the previous game. Can it be another one here to keep them on top? But no, DMS are arriving, I think, a little bit too soon. And Outplayed likely are going to have to try and retreat and stay alive here because DMS have pushed up on them. So NIP started all of this commotion, by the way, by getting that late ticket into Down B, starting to push as ANC Outplayed get eliminated. I'll talk about NIP a little bit later because I don't think we need to harp on about them. Now they are out of this game. We can start to look at other teams. Alliance, who are still on this northern side.
01:02:12 They're gonna have to go through the likes of Stay Healthy and Rat before they could even get into this next zone. ExoClan firing a few shots. They're in an interesting position as well. We had highlighted them yesterday because they have this traditional thing that they've done over the course of all these matchdays, which is a couple of slow games and then one powerhouse game, just like Alliance Saw, that gets them into contention. They're currently sitting in 10th.
01:02:35 But you know they would like to be eight. Case Winnie talks about him and Slayers finally finding that right. Third member with Buda. Can they do it? Alliance, though, could it have just been a game one story? Hockey's trying to salvage something out of this. They lose two. Nine Lines Esports and Stay Healthy also go down as squads. And Alliance making it out with just one. A bit injured, but still alive.
01:02:56 I've seen Hackies do some incredible things in ALGS. And if you can get them at least into the top 10, then I think it will be job done for them. There's a couple of kills on the board as well. But now Rats, they're going to be able to finish up the pieces of Alliance Effect and a Lucky go down. The incredible duo of controller players sadly will not be able to help Hackies for the rest of this game. But maybe Hackies can pull off some wonderful magic here to still find Alliance with more points. But now Rats can kind of move from the north.
01:03:23 They are going to have a lot of room to play with. They're going to be the first team from the north to actually get into zone. So there's the potential Rats can gatekeep the likes of 73 Esports and the remainder of Alliance. Decent spot here.
01:03:39 Utilizing things, 11 squads left. Great setup to this game. It really becomes a different one. Just getting into these top 10 situations oftentimes is the difference that a team needs to just unlock the win. And it's so competitive, especially when you have a full rotation all the way, either west, north, east, or south, which is what this has done. This has pulled to the very west of this entire map.
01:04:04 As we get a little bit of an overview, Dan, to set up our last 11 teams here vying for a win on Downbeast. Downbeast is always a very exciting zone to watch, but not necessarily the favorite to play, I think, for some of these pro players because of the amount of teams that can be in this final circle. But it does mean as a viewer, we are going to have a lot of teams still alive, which means it's going to be absolute mayhem.
01:04:25 Rats trying to make.
01:04:45 A continued climb up the leaderboard here. Fourth place is solid for them. Vex, we saw them take that earlier fight as well. Sitting in eighth place on the top of your screen with six points over the likes of Zidane and FA Kids. Can Rats hold this position down? One of the hardest things to do is when teams know this is the spot we want to play from, we're going to give you a little bit of trouble. Let's test your might, so to speak, and see if you can hold this out. Rats.
01:05:10 Das war ein guter Weg. Das ist ein guter Weg. Das ist ein guter Weg. Das ist ein guter Weg. Das ist ein guter Weg. Das war ein guter Weg. Mania kann sich nicht sehen. Tolken falls. Funk ist ein guter Weg. Mania und ihm sagen, hier ist die letzte bit of Defense wir haben. Und das sollte es. Rats go aus. Mania kann nicht sehen. Das push von Slayers. Und, excuse me, von 73 Esports.
01:05:39 Und jetzt geht es auch noch ein Lord of the Rings-Referenz, das auch. Es hat einfach nur einen Weg in den Broadcast zu machen, und sehr unnötig zu uns. Und als Hack ist es noch alive und noch auf seinem Weg, er wird er sein, und er wird er sein, und er wird er sein, und er wird er sein, und er wird er sein, und er wird er sein, und er wird er sein, und er wird er sein, und er wird er sein, und er wird er sein.
01:05:57 So, wenn sie in die Region Finals sind, können sie auch in den Rest von der Competition für eine Chance haben.
01:06:13 playoffs. They've also got ring console information, which will give them quite a big advantage. Not many teams in this final circle are going to have console information here, and we are continuing to move west. It is going to end up on the west side of Down Beast, almost towards the front legs of said Down Beast.
01:06:29 Ja, in a way, they could have a tough one, because they've got 73 Esports right behind them. They'll have to play at least two, three, looking to their back. Hopefully Danish 3D Max, who are sitting either on height or down below, or sharing that space, are going to not look. That's really the key. Don't look at Exo for their hopes to continue again. We talked about their story. We'll continue to see if this is the pop-off game or one of the ones that go unnoticed in the annals of history.
01:06:55 As you can see, a big overview of it here. A couple teams on Hyde as well. We mentioned Young Hong Kong. Danish holding that northwestern side of Down Beast. And Blacklist as well trying to make their way in. JMW, Shaco, and Hierarcha on that south side. It's not a bad spot to play as well.
01:07:15 Ich weiß nicht, wer hat die beste Position hier, Eben, weil High Ground ist meistens was man sich aus. Man sieht 3D Max haben viel zu arbeiten. Danisch ist auch in einer Position, wo sie wirklich versuchen, jemanden zu erreichen. Also werden sie zwei Teams zu halten. Aber es gibt auch die Spieler, die auf dem S-W-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S.
01:07:38 Das ist ein Team, aber ein Spieler wir müssen uns aufhören, ist Hackis, auf seinem Rat-Journey. Nachdem der Allianz wurde von den Rats getötet, er hat sich zu Rat selbst. Und er weiß wie das so gut, und das ist was ein IGL zu tun. Look at how long it's been to go from 11-10. Soon we're gonna be going down to about six squads as well, because one fight from each of these teams turns it into a top five. Allianz is trying to be that sixth one. Hacki is just staying out of their eyes, and willing to take some damage from the zone, not much.
01:08:05 We'll check the killfeed to see if he can somehow make an incredible maneuver. Nice little jump up there from the rope. 73 Esports and Adam ZZ pushing into this building. They'll have cover a little bit, but they'll have to move just beyond it. And down below, is this Vex or they're finishing off? It is. Vex got a reset. They had two players come down in, but now they'll go out and 73 Esports will take their spot.
01:08:27 Oh, but they are going to lose one, and sadly, even though you take that spot, there is other players, other teams in the area just to shoot you from. Height, it looks like, but not just height. It seems like every single angle, it doesn't matter where you go here, you have to dodge, dive, dip, but you are still getting absolutely destroyed, and they will go down. 73 esports, the next team to be eliminated. ExoClan will take that spot now.
Dänischer Sieg in Spiel 2, Strategie und Psychologie im Fokus
01:08:32
01:08:49 And this is a great spot for EXO. This is a well executed zone. They've stayed exactly where they were. And they look to that south. They put pressure on all of those teams rotating at the right time. And now they can sit for a moment and assess. Because now they will be the team moving like 73 Esports was to where players are already holding. Speaking of Danish and 3D Max, it's a good point.
01:09:09 ...to consider who does actually have the best spot as well. Alliance will go down. It's a top 7. That's better than we would have expected. And that's what an IGL like that will do for you. Get you 3, 4, maybe 5 points on the day that you wouldn't have gotten... ...because of their awareness of the game. So Alliance continuing to push their lead.
01:09:27 Can DMS do something different here with the Grapple as well, trying to just get up Aziz? And I think Prestes will find a way to do so. DMS, Players, Danish. They're my three teams to look out for. I mean, I think it's only three of six right now, so it's not as like I'm making a big prediction here, but Passion Ua and Exo are both kind of stuck inside the Down Beast or around the Down Beast. Players are holding the buildings on the southwest, DMS are holding the Down Beast on the north, and then Danish have the high ground. We are going to see late arrivals and a chance to maybe try and move here through the skies, but I don't know.
01:09:56 Ich weiß nicht, wie erfolgreich das wird, denn DMS hat nur einen zu dem Ring verloren, also müssen sie sich ein bisschen vorsichtig sein.
01:10:02 It's the second time Azus has gone down as well. Exo Clan, are they making a push on a Danish or Danish? I think they're just sitting and chilling. As you see, I was taking a look at the map feed. Now, no, Exo's just sitting pretty inside. This is one way to hold it, but all of the chaos happening outside as well. Artico, Sonya, get back up for Passion UA. 23 points, a silently very strong game from them. And Max Strafi to put them in the second place as of now. Still, you could say that...
01:10:28 This is a game that we cannot decide who is going to be the winner. And look at the difference here. Young Hong Kong and Danish. Let's follow along with them for a second. They're in the best spot potentially, Dan. But look at those blues. This is not going to work in a late game fight.
01:10:39 Ja, Danish haben wir hier von der sehr starten. Und meine Frage war, ist jemand zu versuchen, mit ihnen zu kämpfen mit ihnen auf den Top-DOWN-Beast? Sie haben sehr gut gemacht, um die Teams zu behalten. Sie haben eigentlich von White-DOWN-Beast-Beast-Beast-Beast-Beast-Beast-Beast-Beast-Beast-Beast-Beast-Beast-Beast-Beast-Beast-Beast-Beast
01:11:08 Und es bedeutet, Exo wird in den Top 3 sein, als Passion Uwe also hat. Exo looking phänomenal. Wir asked, ob das wäre die Pop-Off-Game. Vielleicht nicht die größte, die sie haben. Aber vielleicht ist es das Start zu etwas Neues. Some consistency hier. Some strong performances, even wenn es nicht ein 30-bomb von K-Sweeney, Slayers und Füda, als sie in der Final Chance für die Region Finale haben. Game 2 ist looking like es könnte anybody. Stanish auf high.
01:11:37 Best position, but the least amount of shields. Exo have to move out. Otherwise, I would say they are set up and ready to go with the Watson fences as well. And when you look at players, I mean, they could stare at everyone. They could be the ones that get focused. They could be the ones that do the focusing and make it difficult for Exo and Danish to actually drop down and have a chance to play. Dan, it's up to anybody right now to tick the duck.
01:11:57 Yeah, Danish just need to find a little ledge, a little lip to hide behind so the other two teams will spot each other out and start to engage and then they should be able to drop and potentially win this game. The Blue Shields do still worry me though because if players can wipe Exo as they...
01:12:10 und dann haben wir den Vorteil, dann haben wir den Vorteil von den Schildern. Jetzt, wir sehen uns eine Evac-Tower geht hier für Exo, das ist wahrscheinlich nur eine Distraction Technik, aber wir können hier sehen, dass diese Teams ein bisschen riskieren. Wenn sie nicht die Fight ist, wird sie einfach nur auf, aber ich denke Exo-Clan wird es als ein Distraction und starten zu versuchen, die Positionen hier zu tun.
01:12:37 Maybe it'll just tilt the tide to coming back into the full-on meta. So far, though, ExoClan not worried about defenses. They're worried about being offensive as well. Smokes from above from Danish. Case Winnie doesn't have much in his vision right now. You can see it from his perspective. He's got a Thermite, but he's just waiting, biding his time. And no, Danish will not have been able to get onto Purples before this final fight. What will that mean for the team on Hyde who's been dominating so far in terms of position to try to claim a win?
01:13:06 They still have the high ground though, they can work these legs and they can just wait for the teams to start to unfold and they can throw grenades if they have any but I'm not sure how much resources that actually they have to use here but it's just a case of hoping that the damage is done by the other squads.
01:13:32 Und Young Hong Kong und S.W.A.D. take the win.
01:13:36 Dänisch, die auf Downbeast sind, gehen zu den Bakery Shop, und ich bin, sie bekommen die sweeten Teats, weil sie brauchen sie. Wenn man sich die Position und ihre Chance zu bekommen, sie sind eine der Spieler zu gewinnen, für die Top-Eight-Spots. Once wir in die Region Finale kommen, ja, sie haben bereits in die Region Finale gewonnen, aber man muss sich in die Region Finale beherrschen. Und wenn wir Teams wie NIP haben, das ist eine große Chance für Dänisch zu nehmen, diese Chance zu nehmen, diese Chance zu nehmen, diese Chance zu nehmen, diese Chance zu nehmen, diese Chance zu nehmen, diese Chance zu nehmen, diese Chance zu nehmen, diese Chance zu nehmen, diese Chance zu nehmen, diese Chance zu nehmen, diese Chance zu nehmen, diese Chance zu nehmen, diese Chance zu nehmen, diese Chance zu nehmen, diese Chance zu nehmen, diese Chance zu nehmen, diese Chance zu nehmen, diese Chance zu nehmen.
01:14:05 What I love there is the psychology of that fight that is clearly on display. And one of the things is they're not in a great spot. Danish are hoping that somebody else does something for them. And in this case, it's ExoClan. The benefit, though, of being able to work those ledges, as you so aptly pointed out, Dan, is they now force ExoClan, from their perspective, to go, all right, what's our game plan here? Because if we just wait, we might get third.
01:14:29 But we have a chance to easily push this team. So even though it's not in our best interest to win and we're supporting Danish, we need to take this fight. And so Danish, just by waiting, forced Exoclan to do what's best for them in their situation and take a guaranteed second place. And obviously that gets Danish a win when Blue Shield's final circle against Reds and Purples, you don't really think that's going to happen, but they find a way. And that's part of what's made this last run in the ALGS Split 2 so fun to watch them play.
01:14:56 Ja, es ist nicht ein High-Kill-Kill-Kill, aber es ist eine gute Points-Total für ihre Chancen zu werden.
01:15:25 Konsistency was the word that I mentioned at the start of the day, and to be able to get a win from your POI is always something you have to achieve. You know, it's like in a battle royale or something, I mean, what is actually the best, right? I mean, you could say, well, you guys needed like 25 kills to win this game. We only needed one at the end of the day. So who's really outsmarting the rest of the lobby? Danish Wolf.
01:15:48 ...leave you to have that conversation against Exoclan, who popped off as well with 12 kills, 4,600 damage. They'll certainly be thinking first place belongs to them, even if it doesn't show on the leaderboard. But players also made things interesting. Sonya, Jukes, Fightu found a way to hold that third spot.
01:16:05 Probably the worst spot out of all, because two teams could face on to them, and so that's how it ended up translating as we head to our series results. After two, Passion UA, they had a sneaky game, Dan. A lot of points that went unseen on our broadcast, but it puts them into a second place position, followed by Exoclan, ANC outplayed, and Danish rounding out the top five. I can't stress how important it is that Danish were able to find that victory to get the 13 points, because when you look at the teams that are around them, Exoclan is...
01:16:35 One of those teams as well, who are also chasing that top eight position. Pash and UA are in seventh at the moment. They're ahead, so Danish need to be able to catch them up. And you can have some teams that are a little bit lower that could still be competing with those positions. Outplayed, for example, who really are putting on some points on the board now. Even though they're a little bit lower on their chances of getting into regional finals, there is still the chances of playoffs as well once they get to those regional finals. So you have to be wary of all of your surroundings here.
01:17:01 Well, Game 2 goes the way of Danish with a perfectly executed endzone and plan to make it happen. Game 3, our final one on Stormpoint, coming up right after this.
01:18:45 is the official chair partner of the Apex Legends Global Series. Welcome back, everybody. Two games done and our final game on Stormpoint is just about to get underway. Danish winning the last game with just the single kill, Dan. And I joked in our little chat that imagine if someone won land with just one kill. That'd be a story, wouldn't it?
01:19:06 Ich meine, es ist definitiv doable, und das ist was Leute versuchen zu machen, wenn es zu Matchpoint zu machen, weil sie versuchen, die Position zu gewinnen, und das ist genau das für sie. Und das ist genau das für Danish. Sie hatten Priority Position direkt von der starten der Spiel. Sie haben die Bestes, sie haben die High-Ground, sie haben die Hoch-Ground, sie haben die Hoch-Ground, sie haben die Hoch-Ground, sie haben die Hoch-Ground, sie haben die Hoch-Ground-Ground, und sie haben sich immer wieder gemacht. Ich denke, was das Team auf Low-Ground war, es gab nur zwei. Wenn es drei Team left auf Low-Ground war, dann hätte sie sich in die Position gebrochen.
01:19:35 Wenn es mehr Teams ein bisschen healthy war, mehr Spieler zu geben, dann haben sie ein bisschen schwerer Liebe. Aber sie haben sich nicht nur die zwei Gruppen in den letzten Enden geholfen. Es war das Spielplan perfekt. Ja, es war ein schweres Ziel für jemanden, die nicht auf Heite zu sein. Sie sehen, diese Endmoment ist ein sehr, sehr einfaches Job für sie. Wir haben nur einen Spieler zu tun. Und wenn man das nur einen Spieler zu tun hat, ist das Standard in der Pro League.
01:20:01 So Danish getting the win from Downbeast, Outplayed getting their first win from the Mill and it was down towards, kind of between Mill and Cenote. So the two teams who have the POI drops...
01:20:26 Das war die Teams, die in 2nd place waren, und die Kills waren, Lions und ExoClan, die wirklich demonstriert, dass wenn du auf der Erde bist, wenn du auf der Erde bist, wenn du auf der Zone bist, wirst du gewinnen. Du musst nicht in 1st place werden. Du kannst es durch die Kills und die KP erreicht werden. So die Zone, wir wissen, ist immer going zu sein.
01:20:51 An important factor of where it's going to be, and those who have priority to it are going to have a chance to win the game. But is that win going to put you with enough points to get you into the regional spots? That's my biggest question. Very, very interesting to see how those zones do convert into wins, and also how ExoClan convert at least one game, it seems, per series that we see them at the moment, into a 20-plus point game. It just seems like they just have that one game where they kill everything on their way to zone.
01:21:18 Das ist der Punkt für den Tag. Sie müssen noch ein paar mehr Games zusammen sein, wenn sie in die Möglichkeit haben, um das Land zu qualifizieren. Remember, sie sind jetzt außerhalb der Top 8 im Moment, um heute Abend zu dieser Game Day. So eine große Idee für ExoClan ist, Danisch. Well, sie hat Downbeat-Zone das letzte Mal, und sie haben eine Ring-Console zu finden, wo es geht. Und für Danisch und ANCL-Player, sie haben eine gute Priorität zu dieser Zone, aber Passioneu über Cito, sie haben die Bestes von es all.
01:21:44 Yeah, I would say it's been a very good set of games for Black Lives International, Danish, Outplayed, Pashnuay, and NIP, because it has been all kind of very western zones, whether that be north or west. And this one, again, even though it's slightly central with Seto, it is still a priority position if you are on the west. It's much more difficult if you are on that eastern side.
01:22:05 But a team who demonstrated that doesn't matter is Exoplan, all the way down towards Devastated Coast. They were able to achieve a lot of kills in that previous game, and they'll be looking to do a similar thing here. Now, if trends are going to continue the way they have been over the last two games, Passion UA become one of the favorites to win this game. But I think Outplay, Danish, Blacklist International, even Forbidden, 3D Max moving quickly, they can all maybe get into a spot that could arguably be better than Passion UA's if they predict where that zone is going incorrectly.
01:22:33 Es wird ein interessanter Zon, tatsächlich. Ich habe mich schon mal auf die Ring-Console. Downbeast, wie wir gesagt haben. Die Danish haben es, sie haben es, sie haben es. Die NIP haben es aber auch. Aber es dauert ein bisschen länger Zeit, weil Sonnake ist so eine spread-out PLI, um ihre Skates aufzunehmen. Wir sahen, dass ANCL auf die Zonung ist. Ich bin nicht sicher, dass sie eine Ring-Console haben, aber wahrscheinlich mit dem Traffic, sie können die Idee gehen. Und Danish, sie sind aus. Sie haben das letzte Spiel mit 1-Kill. Diesmal, sie sind erst in der Lobby.
01:23:02 Yeah, I think when you are dropping towards Downbeast and you are rotating past the mill, you have to be very aware of how quickly you've looted and how quickly you've moved, because the positions that mill can find themselves in to hold you out if you're going from west to east is very difficult to try and get through. And we've just seen that happen. Outplayed taking full advantage of a slightly unaware Danish and winning that engagement. Now, a team that rotated a little bit later was NIP. They've not moved yet from Cenote, so they're going to be happily looting and not trying to be as quick as the likes of Outplay.
01:23:32 ... ... ... ...
01:23:57 Und sie werden versuchen, die Height wegzunehmen. So vielleicht ein bisschen ein Verzichter, weil sie wissen, dass sie mit den Shields sind, wenn sie jemanden sind, dann ist es ein sehr, sehr einfaches KP. Und das wird der Ende des Spiel. Ich finde das Swerve wegzunehmen. Es ist ein bisschen, ich würde sagen, Navigating Risky in einem sensibleren Weg für sie zu Elongate der Spiel, statt zu spielen ein bisschen mehr Risky und zu sehen, ob sie sich die Spot wegzunehmen.
01:24:22 Yeah, there are certain times where you have to really consider your risks. Like, is it a risk that's worth it, right? Are we in a position where this risk could win us the game? If it's not going to win us the game, why are we taking that risk? Can we maybe take the same kind of risk a little bit later, which will have a bigger payoff, and it is more of a risk and reward? Now, FA Kids are just going to be, at the moment, looking to probably try and hit this survey beacon to get some extra information, but it looks like there's a couple of squads in Jurassic with them.
01:24:49 So they're not going to be able to necessarily hit it comfortably. Instead, they're looking to try and take the fight. Yes, Vex is on the other side of this fence line at the moment, trying to rotate their way through. He's probably thinking about doing the same thing that FA kids are, but oh my God, Zidane doesn't care. Zidane is going to poke, Zidane is going to get the cliff. And Zidane is just going, hey, Vex, how dare you come this way. I will take you all out. And he wants the third as well.
01:25:12 Zidane just wants everything. Zidane, wenn he starts to get going, when he goes into a flow state, he is one of the most terrifying players in the region, that's for sure. He's so confident he's going to challenge, knowing that he's going to do the damage. He's not even backing down here. He's probably screaming to his teammates, don't worry, I've got this one. He's not even popping a battery. He just wants to fight. He wants to kill. He's done enough damage. Surely he can clean this up.
01:25:34 Vex will be eliminated, kind of comes in and goes, sorry guys, I'll do the final 15 damage, see when it's this teamfight, I've got it, and Zadam's going, alright buddy, I did the rest, don't worry about it though, good job from you, but I mean, that's about as clean a fight as you can get, and I've got to say, it's on the Vex side, a massive blunder, to let Zadam walk through and pay no attention whatsoever to that gate, that's not good enough, that's what's going to cost you.
01:25:58 Ja, es wird es kostenlos. Und das kann auch die Dinge, die wirkliche Chance können, wenn wir in den Regional Finals gehen. Als NIP haben sie 2-2 verloren. Sie haben 2-2 verloren. Sie haben 2-2 verloren. Sie haben 2-2 verloren. Sie haben 2-2 verloren. Sie haben 2-2 verloren. Sie haben 2-2 verloren. Sie haben 2-2 verloren. Sie haben 2-2 verloren.
01:26:27 Yeah, not looking good for NIP, and especially when you go back to what you were talking about at the start of the day, right? How they had some really, really, I would say woes, really strong woes on World's Edge the last time they were out. And that's where we go next. So Stormpoint not looking good for them at the moment, unless something can happen. Zane goes down as well, so it's all up to Amphi now as a solo. And they will be looking forward to seeing the back of Stormpoint and getting over to World's Edge at this point, because there's been nothing to celebrate for them so far in these three games.
01:26:56 These first three games, they're always going to be a little bit nervy, but at the same time, the last three games are going to be even worse because those totals are going to make a big difference for your chances to get to regional finals or maybe even try to secure your spot at playoffs. Now, a team who has already secured their spot at playoffs is Alliance and a chance now for us to listen in to see what Alliance have to think about this rotation.
01:27:21 Pulling checkpoint. All right, ready to go for sure. I'm just running. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We're taking other side. We're taking all the way north. Okay. Let's go. Uh, nobody wins one. Listen, listen, listen. We need to take both these fucking buildings and then gatekeep the other side, like tunnel side. And we have the whole high ground for free. Yeah.
01:27:43 Ich habe nur noch einen, ich habe noch einen, ich habe noch einen, ich habe noch einen, ich habe noch einen, ich habe noch einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich habe einen, ich
01:28:03 Ja, geht zu der anderen Seite. Du beide spielen in der fucking Bildung. Du beide musst hier spielen und den anderen Seite spielen. Du beide musst hier spielen und den anderen Seite spielen. Ich werde Logan spielen und mache einen Zip, okay? Aber wir müssen die Kommand-Team verraten uns hier, okay? Du kannst ihn raten, du kannst ihn raten. Sit auf der Helle und raten ihn und warten. Okay. Ich denke, das war gut.
01:28:30 Just wait for me if I want to scan. You play close, and I'm gonna go fight. So you can scan them early. Once you scan them, don't scan anymore. I mean, the scan makes noise. I think you can just listen, to be honest. What about behind us though?
Zone-Information und Strategische Bedeutung im Apex Legends Pro League Spiel
01:28:47
01:28:47 Well, you probably hear us talk about Zone 3 Info, Dan. And people at home are probably thinking, why is that so important, right? Because, I mean, most teams in the lobby, us included, I would say, were thinking, hey, this is a Seto Zone. This looks like a Seto Zone. Well, Alliance played for that third ring console. They played for the third zone information. And from that, you can see that shift of the zone has gone to the north, to the south side of Checkpoint. So now Alliance have the control of all of Checkpoint, all of that height, and they can work their way in.
01:29:16 A little bit later on down that hill, it's fascinating how sometimes Apex in these zones can just completely shift the momentum of a game.
01:29:23 Yeah, we actually saw a zone like this in North America, and Liquid Alienware were able to win from Barometer by doing the same thing. They hit a ring console on their path, on their journey, as they approached through the mill, and then they saw that the zone was going to pull up towards Checkpoint, which allowed them to get there first and be one of these opening squads, really, to get into a priority position, because all these teams in CETO, they have no idea right now. They're going to be happily chilling, saying, all right, well, this looks like a CETO zone. I mean, why wouldn't it be? It's not going to pull any further. Once they get that info, they all have to move at the same time, and we...
01:29:52 We always talk about how difficult that is to make that journey when you've got four or five other teams all doing the same thing. Yeah, it's a tough one to kind of accept if you're one of these teams who's right now sat inside a Seto. You're going to see that zone popping around 60 seconds time and you're going to be like, okay, well, we're part of the traffic now that has to work their way through essentially a singular road towards where that zone is going to be. And it is going to be a singular road because...
01:30:17 Essentially, you can go through the spider caves. You might be able to wrap up and go through the tunnel, but the tunnel is going to be very, very congested. Or you can try and kind of hit a little bit of a Hail Mary Evac.
01:30:27 Speaking of the tunnel, this is the one we're talking about, right? The 73 Esports at the moment, they're already in a scuffle trying to hold it down. Yeah, trying their best to hold it down, but whether it's going to work out, it's players who are going to be on the other side. So big damage required if you are going to engage in this one, but you can see without said damage, you have to back up, you have to reshield, and you have to think about how you're going to try and re-engage here to take out this team, because you don't want to both coincide. You have to win this fight if you want to hold this position.
01:30:52 Man, es gibt so viel Utilität, auch in diesem Kampf. Und dass es viele Teams in Cito gibt, und dass sie auch zoned Informationen haben. 73 Esports, sie wissen sie müssen, sie haben sie zu gewinnen, Reset und bleiben, weil es mehr und mehr Zeit gibt, mehr und mehr Teams werden durch. 73 Esports wird, als die Spieler werden eliminiert werden. Wir sehen ein paar Hit-Fire kommen, um die Final-Member zu cleanen. Und jetzt schauen wir uns an, wo das Endgame ist. Und die Full English, die sind in einer der großen Spots, die Ratser sind einfach nur aus.
Strategische Positionierung und Zonenverschiebungen im Endgame
01:31:18
01:31:18 And if it is that same zone from North America we saw Liquid win, it does pull west and pull away from where 73 Esports are and currently where Rats find themselves. In these buildings, in these surrounding areas, it just pulls outside of it for that final circle. So FA Kids, Rats, Gaming Gladiators, all in a good position, but as are Alliance. You heard them in the listening. Alliance wanted to hold the high ground, they wanted to be above everyone so that they could kind of clean up anyone arriving and then pick and choose where they want to position themselves. They're still a full three, but they might be...
01:31:47 Es ist ein bisschen contestiert bei Blacklist International, die auch zu versuchen, zu holen. Aber für Rats, sie halten eine der besten Positionen an der moment. Und sie werden in der Final Circle sein können. Auf der Seite, die Information ist über die Gleamung des Zones ist, und sie haben das Information jetzt. Und sie wissen, dass Seto ist nicht der Ort. 3D Max, Forbidden, Passion UA, Stay Healthy. Nine Lies also machen ihre Weg.
01:32:14 Wo sie glauben, wo sie werden zu spielen werden, ein bisschen später. Und 3D Max versucht zu denken, KP zu denken. Max Strafi hat sich ein Kreber, und das ist gut für Passion U8, weil Passion U8, die sich über den Seato übernommen hat, hat die Gottspot ein bisschen früher, als auch.
01:32:34 3-Mack ist eine der größten Team zu verändern. Sie haben Forbidden zu der Seite, Stay Healthy, Passioneue zu der Seite, EMS zu der Seite. Es ist vielleicht eine Evac-Tower zu gehen hier. Das ist so eine horrible Rotation für jemanden in Seto. Sie müssen versuchen zu über die Topen zu gehen, sonst wird es ein Chokepoint. Aber nicht nur noch die Team wissen es.
01:33:00 Which is what's kind of annoying. I guess you kind of should have that information by now looking at this zone that it is going to continue to pull north. I don't think we've ever seen a zone shift back south. So I think you have to presume you've got to keep going at this point. But if you're already stuck in this area, you don't have much choice. Like you're being held out by teams who are maybe accepting their fate and just looking for KP now. I think the one thing that...
01:33:22 Die Passion UA haben als eine Möglichkeit, um die Open-Inz zu schaffen, ist das Kraber, aber es muss sein, aber es muss sein. ANC Outplayed ist, sie versuchen zu holen, eine diese Tokes zu machen, und ein guter Spray kommt in von Schex. Sie werden die erste Nog für sie auch. In der Kill-Feed, Sie können sehen, dass Strafe ist weiterhin zu tun. Das Shield-Swap kommt jetzt in Zeit, um zu halten, um ANC Outplayed zu halten, in dieser Team-Fight. Es gibt 9 Lights, die versuchen zu pushen, aber Gaming-Gladiators, sie werden auf das auch wrapen. Exoclan haben sie auch Elimitiert, so der Bomb-Game ist, um ein bisschen zu verändern.
01:33:52 Sometimes it's the story for them when it comes to these matchdames, but ANC Outplay is doing so much to try and stay alive, but now the naves are going to start to rain in. Bomb game to bomb game sadly has happened far too many times as now ANC Outplay looks like they might be going out early as well. Trying to go out with a bang, but the zone will do the damage as Nine Lies somehow come out of this still alive, and that's thanks to the Gaming Gladiators who are on the other side of this rock. We'll probably look to get aggressive and pick up the remainder of these pieces, which they do, and now the Gaming Gladiators will hold this entire choke.
01:34:21 und wahrscheinlich eine der besseren Positionen in der Spiel, weil sie nicht nur die Teams werden, die von Seto kommen kommen, aber sie haben auch die Buildings zu arbeiten. Es gibt jetzt DMS, die in die Fight 2 sind.
01:34:31 DMS hat es auch versucht, dass sie den ersten Knochen unter Max Dreife. Das war der Spieler von PassionUA, die mit dem Krabel geöffnet hat. Aber jetzt hat er nichts gemacht. Der Final Player wird zippen, und selbst als das Ding ist elektrified, ist das zu viel, und PassionUA wird sich verletzt. So DMS wird jetzt über die SOUTH-SIDE von der Zone geöffnet. Aber Gaming Gladiator wird das nächste Team verletzt werden, wenn sie nach K.P.?
01:34:55 Es ist, ob Sie einfach zu own Seto und dann sagen, okay, wir müssen einfach über diese Sache oder wir gehen über diese Sache. Aber KP ist definitiv auf die Seite hier, wenn Sie auf der Souten Seite sind, weil ein paar Teams sind, so DMS müssen diese Entscheidung machen, und sie müssen es schnell machen. All in dem Meanwhile, at Seto ist es ein Kampf zwischen Stay Healthy und Forbidden, und es ist ziemlich die Engagement passiert. One hat schon gesagt, auf Stay Healthy.
01:35:18 Falcons haben schon viel Erfolg, wir sehen uns die Spieler, nicht die Team. Gravespray kommt mit dem Volk, mit dem Volk zu arbeiten. Der Zone ist ein Problem für ihn. Er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem. Er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn. Er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist ein Problem für ihn, er ist
01:35:45 No chance to even try and attempt to go over anything as well now. It would be difficult anyway with the height of the mountain, but with the zone now coming through, you have to accept your fate if you are the likes of Stay Healthy and DMS. DMS trying their best to try and force themselves through this choke, but Gaming Gladiators hold them off. DMS will go down. All the meanwhile, Alliance, who were holding this northern side, will continue to greet all of these teams that are arriving from the east.
01:36:09 Ja, das ist eine Zone, wo man sich einfach nur um, okay, wir versuchen uns einfach nur 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
01:36:33 Haben Sie das Ring-3-Information? Sie sind die Team in der besten Position zu suchen für KP in dieser Zone. Aber auch nicht vergessen, die FA-Kids sind in dieser Zone. Jetzt sind sie sicher. Und Sie sehen, Zidane hat...
Dominanz und strategische Vorteile im späten Spiel
01:36:47
01:36:47 I'm pretty sure Care Package Weapon, the Devo to play with as well, so they aren't going to be a danger in this endgame. And it's funny that FA Kids find themselves in one of the prime positions because they also drop a barometer, as did Liquid when they won this circle in North America. So funny how these patterns do start to emerge, but we'll see whether FA Kids can actually convert from here. Gaming Gladiators still at full three and have taken down one member of Blacklist International. Looks like they'll be eliminated. Four squads now remain. Gaming Gladiators looking pretty dominant on this west side.
01:37:14 Ja, GG haben die Westseite alle zu sichern, jetzt, nachdem sie aus Blacklist International zu nehmen. So, sie sind in einem wirklich, wirklich stark spot. Zwei Red Evos, Light und Lufka. Fully armoured up. Und ich bin sicher, dass Blast nicht zu weit entfernt wird, selbst. Und ihr könnt sehen, dass jeder in der Zone, in der Moment, hat auch, irgendwie, irgendwie, oder, irgendwie, auf ein paar KP. Just, based auf die damage und die Shields, die wir sehen, inside dieser Zone. Nobody mit Blues, everyone Purple und Reds. Und all of a sudden, die Shield advantage ist nicht wirklich ein Ding.
01:37:41 So Alliance are just on top of Rats here. Gaming Gladiators watching from the west and then FA Kids avoiding all the sight lines at the moment on this southern side. It's whether Alliance decide to try and take this fight all night. If they can get a little bit of damage, maybe a grenade that goes in. Or they just dropped the Seer ult. This could be the push. They're going to try and at least get a knock. If they can get a knock in this situation. But the most important thing is they do not go down. Effect is going to be re...
01:38:08 Metted a little bit by that smoke that goes down. The Puck being picked, of course, by him on the Bangalore to make those smokes. Just give him a little bit of health regeneration. Gets the battery off as well. So Alliance try and force the play, which I always like to see. But they also manage to retreat at just the right time to make sure they play this one out as a three. A play out as a three.
01:38:25 But elsewhere, you can see Gaming Gladiators are joining in on that fight. They are trying to add extra damage, as are FA Kids. So both Alliance and Rats are in the sightlines of the two other squads, which kind of makes FA Kids and Gaming Gladiators the two favorite teams to win here, unless they start to engage with each other, which could happen just based off the sightlines that they have on one another as well. Alliance and Rats avoid everything for now, have not engaged, which is going to make for a very interesting final circle here. Four squads remain always makes it a little bit more entertaining and less likely that one team just watches others.
01:38:55 Und dann geht's die Victory. Instead, you really have to think about your positioning, what Ultimates you have as Alliance and Moment, are just on the other side of this door. There's a meeting of the minds going on in this door at the moment. Look at Efekt is about to say CHARGE! They're just gonna stand here, aren't they? They're not gonna send it.
01:39:17 This is Alliance, by the way, who have a lot of points on the board already. Four squads remaining. They know they've got KP. They know they're already in a great position to qualify for LAN. They can have some fun. Not the same case, though, for Rats. They're in 26th position. I was going to say, on the other side of it, absolutely not. So Rats need this more than Alliance do, and that maybe is why Rats are a little bit hesitant, just kind of holding their position. They're not going to really throw away this right now, and they also have the zone on their side. They're going to try and force Alliance to do something here. Where's the Seer Cube?
01:39:48 Er ist gleich zu breit, hier. Es ist gleich zu sein. Aber bei dem das, sie haben sich kontrolliert. Das ist die größere Seite der Bühne. Sie sehen, es ist nur ein Exit Point hier für Radz. Und Unlucky wird das erste Knochen als auch. So Allianz, es scheint, dass sie ein bisschen Spaß haben, aber es ist ein bisschen viel zu machen. Das ist warum sie das Entscheidung gemacht haben. Das ist das, was sie machen. Das ist das, was sie in der Tür zu halten. Das ist das, was sie in der Tür zu halten. Das heißt, es bedeutet, dass sie jetzt hier in der Tür können, hier... Unlucky hat aber schon gesagt, dass sie hier in der Tür gehen. Aber Unlucky hat aber schon gesagt, dass sie sich able zu resetten. Hackes hat also fallen.
01:40:18 Looks like Alliance might just struggle a little bit to escape elsewhere. FA Kids, they're watching and they are destroying the remainder of Rats. Gaming Gladiators still in a fantastic position as well on this west side. They can kind of watch all this commotion happen and then join the fight as Fall Reds and now they see their kill feed starting to light up and that's when they make the push.
01:40:37 Der Gaming Gladiators!
01:41:04 Das ist das, was wir so viele Male gesehen haben, in dem EMEA sehr erfolgreicher Team ist. Und wenn sie eigentlich gewinnen, sie werden in eine sehr advantageous Position gewinnen. Also, ich bin nicht wirklich froh, dass, wenn sie gewinnen, das Chokepoint auf den South-West gewinnen können, dass sie dann in die Position gewinnen können in der Final-Circle gewinnen können.
01:41:25 Yeah, I think the most important fight they won was that west side one against Blackness International, right? Because by doing that, they completely clear that side of the zone, knowing that the majority of the traffic is in the opposite. And then it's just a case of essentially picking your spot, waiting for damage to be done because nobody else has LOS on you and they all have LOS on each other. So a very simple game for them to convert, but...
01:41:44 It's simple once you make that big play, you make that decision to take out Blacklist International. And by doing that, they close out the game in their final moments as well. It's a little bit of a carnage-based game, that one. The zone shift obviously played into that a little bit, but seeing, what was it? Five teams alive, zone five, is a little bit surprising. Very surprising. I think when you have a zone that shifts that heavily away from you, you're always going to see a lot of teams kind of fall and just accept that they are not going to be able to get into that zone.
Analyse der Spielergebnisse und strategische Einblicke
01:42:09
01:42:09 Und dann ist es die Realität, dass wir einfach nur für K.P. hier. Und du kriegst das Amazing-Fight in Seto, drei oder vier Teams alle scrappern, gehen für K.P., aber dann müssen sie sagen, all right, wir werden nicht gewinnen, das Spiel werden. Es geht darum, wer hat das Ring-Console, um die Zone zu bekommen. Hier sind die Resultate von Nummer 3. Gaming Gladiators auf top, mit 10 Kills, 22 Punkte in total für sie. Allianz mit einem 2nd-Place-Finisch, thanks zu den...
01:42:34 Die KP haben sie um 14 Punkte geführt. By the way, eine der Highlights der LGS so far ist die Effekt Trumpet. Es ist eigentlich ein besser term für es. Es ist nicht eigentlich Trumpet, ist es? Korne? Ich weiß nicht. Horn! Whatever es ist. Fakid ist in 3rd place. 12 Punkte für sie. Für sie 7 Placement Points zu gehen. Die 5 Blacklist International sind gut Placement von ihnen. Aber ich denke, das ist eine Sache, dass sie gut Placement ist, aber sie brauchen ein paar KP zu gehen. Und sie waren nicht able zu machen.
01:43:03 22 points is a big game though, right Rain Day? These are the kind of points you need to be putting on the board.
01:43:33 Ich denke, Passion Ua, Anc Outplay, Gaming Gladiators, Exoclans, alle sehr starken games. Ich denke, Passion Ua ist der einzige Team, der wirklich nicht gemacht hat.
01:43:45 Schöstopping, but has had probably the most consistency outside of ANC Outplay here to put themselves in second place. And that's what they need, being 7th in the overall standings, going into regional finals. If they can be consistent here today and keep that gap between themselves and 8th place, then they are going to be feeling like, alright, playoffs should be a tap-in for us here, just with a good performance here today. So even though they're not doing anything outrageous, they're not getting those big wins, they are just consistently putting those points on the board to stay at arm's length away.
01:44:15 von den Chasing-Teams.
01:44:18 Looking at this, and I'm taking a look at some of the standings myself as well, FA Kids are sitting in 13th place. They're having a decent day today. They're in within maybe eighth overall. Aurora, teams ahead of them as well, are not playing. And so I think you look at the opportunity to set yourself up for regional finals. That does give you a good shot at land. That would be amazing for FA Kids. It'd be a story we'd be talking about. So keep an eye on them as we transition. But who I've been keeping an eye on, it's different. He hails all the way from Denmark.
01:44:47 And he's on summer vacation. Not like the rest of us, though. Literally. Because when the fall starts, he goes back to school. And we're talking sophomore year. We've got to bring it in. It's Tryhard Thor, the 16-year-old star of Atlas, who is joining us here on our Halftime Recap. Tryhard Thor, thank you so much for spending time with us. Yeah, thanks a lot for having me.
01:45:11 So, I got to open this up because it's rare that we see someone who is younger than probably 19 having the level of success that you guys are having, having the impact that you're having on a professional league in esports. But 16 years old, talk to me about what it's like. We were catching up about how you're happy you can grind Apex a little more because it's actually summer break. You don't have school. Walk me through your journey to get here into our Pro League at 16 years old, what you've had to do, what your life is like being a professional so young.
01:45:43 Well, I mean, it's definitely not always easy, um, trying to, like, balance homework and, and grinding this game, like, eight hours a day to, uh, to, you know, stay on, stay on top of, like, mechanical skill-wise. Um, but, yeah, I mean, somehow I've managed to do it and I'm just super happy to be able to compete in Pro League amongst, like, so many great players at, like, you know, such a, such a young age. And I simply hope to just learn a lot from this split and then just get even better results in the future.
01:46:14 It's amazing to hear you speaking so well as a 16-year-old. When I was 16, I'm pretty sure I didn't know how to tie my shoes up still. So it could actually sound great. I want to talk to you a little bit about the success you've had, though, because it's not just the Pro League. You actually won a tournament recently as well, the Nordic Cup. Tell me about that experience and how it feels to win.
01:46:33 Well, I mean, that was an incredible experience running the first lane I ever attended to. I guess I now have 100% lane win rate. I just hope that it's definitely not like the last lane I'll ever be going to or the last lane I'll ever win. And I just hope I can keep up that performance in the future as well. And yeah, I mean, I'm just super happy to get a result like that. Yeah, maybe it's a sign of things to come. I'm also very jealous that your name's Thor. I wish I was named Thor.
01:47:01 Sadly, I was named Daniel, which is a bit boring in comparison. Anyway, we're going to start talking about some of the games we've just seen, Thor, and I think that we can get your opinion on how things have gone, maybe something that you would have seen in those matches as well. We can look at the final circles. In match one, we of course saw a very interesting kind of finish between Cenote and Mil. Anything that you noticed and how well Alliance were playing, even though they got second place, for example?
01:47:27 Well, Alliance were able to hold so much space with the Pathfinder. It was simply just incredible watching this. Like, the Pathfinder, when you see Hackers there playing all the way on the other side of Unlucky and Effect, just playing the rock and holding as much space as possible. It was, of course, hard to hold when ANC outplayed. Cat rolled out and then just started controlling the other side of the zone, simply leaving Alliance and, yeah, simply having to, like, drop down and fight the other team and just play for second place.
01:47:55 Yeah, playing for second sometimes is something you have to do when you see a play like that. I think Alliance maybe thought they could still win that final engagement because of their shields, but ANCL played timed it absolutely perfectly after that. Catwall and sadly Alliance, they do fall in second place, but they did get the most amount of points, so that's a win in my books. Match two, we went all the way to Down Beast, and it was Danish who came out on top. As a fellow Dane, was it good to see them get a victory here at Down Beast? I mean, I simply couldn't be happier. I really couldn't.
01:48:25 Wir sehen uns an Exoclain hier an der Bottom. Sinty fällt und Danish kann nur auf den Beest bleiben, und Sinty wäldert den Kampf. Svinny hier ist auf den Fuse, das bedeutet, dass sie viel Crash-Trip mit Nades und Noggle-Clustern sind. Das ist auch ein Teil des Spiels, weil sie gewinnen. Sie sehen, Svinny hat auch so viel dämt mit der Havoc.
01:48:51 Und dann, Dänisch zu Inter ist einfach so, dass wir alles aufbauen können. Und dann, endlich, in der letzte match we just hatten, wir sind weg von Seto. Es ist ein großes Zones-Shift, um zu den Checkpointen. Wie schwierig sind die Zones zu sehen, wie das?
01:49:07 Ich bin kein IGL, ich bin eher ein Anker-Fragger-Player, aber ich meine, das definitiv ist nicht die höchste Zonen in der Welt. Es war auch ein sehr Chaotik in-game, wie wir vier Teams hier sehen, und Gaming Collider ist einfach nur auf alle auf der Seite, ohne zu tun zu viel damage oder zu gehen. Also, wirklich mit Patience, und einfach viel Disziplin, und dann gewinnen die Fighter-Beam-Tier, einfach nur die Game 3.
01:49:38 Well, it's an incredible showcase as well, and I'm talking about two incredible showcases, that analysis, of course, and the gameplay, because you were maybe more scintillating than Gaming Gladiators right there. I mean, it's amazing. We're all kind of in awe of it, and we're all so appreciative to have this time with you. I want to, again, I think we might show you some standings if we don't do that. I want to get your thoughts after three, what you're seeing tendency-wise from EMEA, and what can we expect heading into these next three games in your eyes? Thor?
01:50:08 Well, I mean, I simply, honestly, I expect Alliance to just keep dominating and doing Alliance things. We saw that little emote from Effecta, they're just playing with a whole lot of confidence today, already having pretty much secured the spotted lane. And yeah, I mean, I'm also, I'm keeping my arse in Danish, you know. As a Dane, I'm keeping my arse in Danish, and I advise you to do the same. The boys are locked. They are locked.
01:50:34 The boys are locked. Well, they hope to qualify. You hope to qualify as well. I know people now will be maybe a little bit more tapped into your particular journey. So I want to give you a chance to shout out your stream, your content, where people can find you and follow along with Try Our Thor. Yeah, well, I stream on Twitch daily. So if anyone ever feels like watching some 16-year-old M&K gameplay, you're always welcome to show up.
01:51:04 And shout that stream out for us so we know. What's the stream? Of course, yeah. Trich Triathol. And then a little underscore at the end because Triathol was taken apparently. So, yeah. Gotta remember the underscore. Okay, we will certainly shout that out many times as well. And good luck on the rest of this split. We got regional finals coming up as well. It seems like you guys will make it. So we wish you the best in that. And hopefully we'll see you at another LAN. Thanks a lot. Thanks for having me.
01:51:34 Honestly, amazing stuff. Marc, I mean, you know, I wasn't going to make an age joke here. Well, actually, I was going to make an age joke, but I decided not to do it because I think it's just amazing. The truth is to see someone that young, that composed on all facets, seems like a real star in the making there, handles himself well on camera and in game. Yeah, I think it's amazing to see someone talk so well, which shows a lot about their personality. And I think you can learn a lot about a player, not just through what they do.
01:52:01 Wie ist Tri-Hardtor? Wie ist Tri-Hardtor?
01:52:23 Well, I love that one, man. Why don't you take a break? Ponder that on a little bit of time. Actually, I think I'm sending Dan on a break here. You and I will have a chance to ponder. So, Dan, relax. Thank you for the three games in a row. We'll see you back. I know he was looking at me like, you better send me on a break, man. What are you doing? I am not casting one more game. So we'll head back to Mark. I mean, you know, it's true. It does bode well for signs of the future. It also means that, you know, with nine points, I think where Danish is sitting. And then when you look at Atlas, nine points behind.
01:52:52 That's kind of where we see with 69 points.
01:52:55 Ultimately, that top eight being. What are the realistic chances of a team like Atlas making land? It's tough because you've got teams now performing well who are going to climb up. It's going to make that point total even higher. So Atlas, they're going to be hoping for a big regional finals. It seems like they'll definitely be in it. But just a great story to add to all the ones we've been tabulating alongside these first three games of Match Day 9 as we transition now into World's Edge. And it's the last chance for a lot of teams, Mark. Yeah, it certainly is indeed.
01:53:24 Ich glaube, das Team ist ein Team, der wir sehen uns beim nächsten Mal, ist es, wenn wir sie sehen, ist es ein Team, der wirklich ist, der Moment ist. Looking at das POI Draft, du kannst du, hey, surprise, surprise, Skywest ist der erste Picker. Es gibt Vex, die von dort spielen, Free Agent Kids, die von Stax zu spielen. Exoclant hat Lava Fissure, das ist eine interessante Pick für mich so early auf, weil ich nicht Lava Fissure ist für mich, aber es ist ein paar Worte, wo sie ein bisschen von hier haben, so vielleicht der Macro ist ein bisschen mehr in Tune mit
01:53:53 Das ist natürlich der höheren pick. So an Stormpoint, they had their worst pick in terms of where they were landing. And they've still been able to lead the lobby in significant fashion. So this should only mean that things get hotter and hotter. And I'm not just talking about Thermal Station over on in the Alliance side of things. Nine Lies Esports, there'll be an overlook.
01:54:23 Es ist ein sehr commoner Ort, wenn die northernen Zonen pull, um zur Epicenter oder sogar Survey Camp zu können. Speaking of Survey Camp, DMS wird da. GG at Klimawest. Passion at UA. The Tree, ein ganz southern Spot. Das wird ihnen ein bisschen consistency und vielleicht machen ihre Rotation ein bisschen einfacher. Wir sehen die Back Half, auch.
01:54:44 Dan on staging NIP on Siphon E73 Esports for Fragment. And ANC outplayed on Mirage A2. Still a story we're keeping tabs on because they are currently sitting outside of our Regional Finals. Now, this could be the biggest three games of the split for NIP because they have barely put a point on the board so far. They are outside of the automatic qualification spots. They should be good for Regional Finals, but...
01:55:08 Do you really want to leave it to that? Do you want to leave it to the roll of the dice? Do you want to see if you can win match point? Do you want to really put that pressure on yourself? Well, you can kind of take that out of the equation by righting the wrongs of last week on World's Edge and starting to perform here. But if anything, we're going to kind of presume from what we saw in the first three games, it might be a case for NIP where they're looking down that barrel. So big three games of the split for them as we head into match four now. Change of scenery here, Rain Day. Time for some World's Edge.
01:55:35 And I love it. You see all of the individual dropships bring their opponents down onto the ground to get started and looting up as we get to our final three games to decide who will head to our regional finals, who will miss the cut, and we'll have a chance to claim their spot, punch their ticket to Mannheim, Germany, August 29th to September 1st. Exciting stuff here along the way. And before we get into this, I did want to just mention this.
01:56:04 Es ist interessant, weil Atlas sind 60 Punkte und NIP sind 63. Also, wenn sie so wie sie sind, in terms der Punkte sind, um sich zu einem anderen. NIP ist 19, oder so. Es wäre Atlas zu werden, und NIP ist 2nd, und dann, ultimately, Atlas würde jump...
01:56:26 So the stakes are that close to where maybe a point in a regional finals, one placement would get NIP out if they do not pick up the pace here. And so big, big stakes were some of our biggest names as well. I just wanted to reiterate that. Yeah, it's interesting, isn't it? It's like, would you rather be watching right now, knowing your games are done and knowing that you're holding on to a position? Would you rather be playing and knowing that that pressure is on with other teams who are ahead of you or chasing you down? It's a tough one, but oh my goodness.
01:56:54 If you're an NIP fan and I've been talking about how they've been really struggling today, well, you don't get much of a better opportunity than right now. It's a zone where they have ring console, they have best prio to it, they have the position, they have everything you could possibly want for a big game here. It's in their hands at this point. NIP have to convert in this game number four. If they don't, I'm worried.
01:57:17 Ich würde mich auch überraschieren. Ich hoffe, dass sie sich eine Chance geben können. Faitu hat sich noch eine Chance für J-Savage zu geben. Und jetzt sprechen wir, Fakids zu machen, um das Top 8 zu machen. Das ist ein bisschen schwerer zu verlieren. Als Mr. Savage geht es um, der Spieler noch unter der Rest ist. Sonja, Jukes und Faitu sind in den Blüten, um sie zu machen.
01:57:41 als sie sich um, aber Zidane, Kiner ist immer wieder. Wenn Zidane ist, und er hat high ground, nichts ist möglich. Ja, es tut mir leid, wenn Zidane ist, ich weiß nicht, ob er ist. Wenn er in den Lobby ist, ist es immer ein Worry. Er hat sich in den Lohm. Er hat sich in den Lohm. Er hat sich in den Lohm.
01:57:59 Wir sehen, wie schwierig es momentan ist, für die Spieler zu versuchen. Aber auch für Forbidden, in der Momentan zu sehen, Aku ist noch an seinen Feet, aber er ist sehr weig. Und 0-0 wird auf der anderen Seite sein. So FA-Kids haben sich in den Momentan geblieben. Es ist Exo-Clan, die wir in den Rez sind, und es ist Exo-Clan, die wir in den Weg bringen. Knuckle-Closters, Arc-Star, und Bodies dropping, auch. Exo-Clan werden die ersten Kills auf Game 4. Forbidden, Elimination.
01:58:25 One of the benefits of Lava Fissure as well is being able to rotate pretty early, either to Countdown, Landslider, in this case Staging, and take a fight. And this is exactly what ExoClan do. Mirage Etoile, they're dealing with, I believe, ANC Outplayed, who make a rotation, you know, and they don't have to really come across that.
01:58:44 But the timing of it for them and Exo is just being ready to take that fight whenever they do. They can be kind of the last person to get in there, having looted up, and obviously make a big impact like you just saw there, finishing off those kills. 73 Esports, they're on the other side of the map, Eastern, as the zone is actually going to be pulling that way. So if they win this fight, it's looking harder and harder, they could have a chance to make it into the zone. Yeah, they've got some good initial damage, but now they've lost a player, and Bizarra's been finished as well, so no chance to think about a res. However, you can see...
01:59:13 Adam hat jetzt einen zu bekommen. Er hat einen sichern. Er hat einen sichern. Er hat einen sichern. Er hat einen sichern. Er hat einen sichern. Er hat einen sichern. Er hat einen sichern. Er hat einen sichern. Er hat einen sichern. Er hat einen sichern. Er hat einen sichern.
01:59:41 Dekkyo, nicht wirklich viel zu tun hier. Und jetzt versuchen wir es zu machen. Für die Team vielleicht magisch will passieren. Es ist schwer in Apex, aber auch viel Zeit zu tun. Und Vyfes und Thorfinn von Nine Lies E-Sports. Wir gehen von Overlook und finden ein Weg, still, zu maintainen das Choke. Gaming Gladiators könnte kommen in hinter dem, aber für heute, ein bisschen respite. Und dann können sie mit der Squadron reset. Ja, sie können sich ja auch wieder resetten. Wenn sie nicht haben, haben sie ein Mobile Rez Beacon, sie können über Rez wo sie sind. Oder sie können wieder in die Fragment und die Spieler wieder in.
02:00:10 Knowing that they don't have great priority to this zone, they can take their time to make sure they play this as a 3, but this is the zone. This is where we are going to be seeing our endgame, and you can see some of the teams already in position. You've got Danish, who we just heard are being supported by Thor at home as well. He wants to see them do well when they're in a great spot themselves, passing UA.
02:00:27 Also in a fantastic spot, and they have the Watson Crypto Comp here, so not only are they going to have info, they're going to be able to EMP and any other Watsons who are in the vicinity, but they've got the Watson themselves to hold things down and they don't have to worry about their med situation either.
02:00:40 A great story, Max Trafee, finally able to make land here in Split 1 in Los Angeles, looking to set his team up. One of the nicest guys, by the way, I have ever met in esports. Full stop. What a beautiful story, too, the way that he's just gone through so much adversity and still found a way onto some successful teams. And splitting up Manaski, well, they're looking to do it again. And so you just got to root for him. It's not just our commentary. It's not just meeting him in person. The fans, I mean, one of the most liked people, for sure, in Apex Legends.
02:01:10 Yeah, Nine Lines managed to get back up to 3, so they're just going to be retreating towards the Geyserchoke now, or actually they're going to be going through the Vault Tunnel, so...
02:01:28 The Gleiser Choke is available if GG want to try and move up there themselves, but it looks like they might be able to instead hit the Survey Beacon to get a little lay of the land and what spots are going to be open, what teams are already in some of those predominant positions. Now, they know with 15 squads remaining and the fact that they moved all the way from the northern side of the map, that this is going to be a rough game for them to get into the zone, but hitting that beacon on the way sometimes just...
02:01:51 Du kannst mal sehen, dass ein Team ein Spiel holen. Und du denkst, okay, wir können Evac in, vielleicht können wir das Spot wegnehmen. Das Information ist vital, um auf den Weg zu kommen.
02:02:00 I think you look at players, if you hit a beacon and you see that south player, I'm not sure which member that is, but isolated there, you might say, okay, maybe we get a quick rotate, we take a 3v1, and then we can hold this building against a 3v2, that could be fine. Gaming Gladiators also decide to go away from the geyser choke, which in my opinion is always a blessed up moment, you don't want to do that if you don't have to, because just bad things happen in that geyser choke in my experience, and of course they'll find their way into a little small area to hold.
02:02:28 Will it be long enough for the Zone, though? We'll see. Exoclan still on the outskirts of it is Vex and Blacklist, still the only teams alongside Alliance who have not made their way towards the Zone whatsoever yet, Mark.
02:02:40 Yeah, Alliance can do what they want. They're just going to be going around, hitting next zone. You can see their head towards Staxx at the moment. I imagine they're going to be playing for that next ring console, collecting any evo harvesters they can see in front of them as well. They're going to make sure that when they approach this zone, they're going to be as evoed up as they possibly can to make those fights a little bit more easy for them, knowing there's going to be so many teams looking for them. Blacklist International, though, is an interesting one for me because they did win or get second place. I think it was a big Mord zone a couple of game days ago where they had to travel quite a distance.
02:03:08 Für ein Team, die vor allem in der Hard-Zone-Style sind, ich bin immer interessiert zu sehen, wie sie adaptiert werden, die nicht mit Plan A zu geben. So, keep your eyes auf sie. Sie sind gerade auf den Traintracken, durch Monument und Fragment. Es ist ein schweres Rotate für sie, aber ich bin interessiert zu sehen, wie sie spielen können.
02:03:25 Yeah, hoping maybe Vex chooses a different path, kind of like Aiming Gladiators chose over Nine Lies, so they could try to eke in through those close chokes, but ExoClan is holding one of them, so still a lot of work to be done for Blacklist International, not able to play Zone the way they want. Meanwhile, Danish sitting in, Fricks, Sherb, and Young Hong Kong holding that building right next to the bridge and firing away, and hopefully Exo, Kay Swinney, and Squad.
02:03:51 Und find their building right there as well. What does that mean? It means Babylon's, G and Denze of Vex might just be able to find a little bit of an opening here and sneak in unnoticed. Well, the moment we jump back into the Alliance POV, the team who have essentially point sponged today. They have had a phenomenal first three games on Stormpoint and now they're going to go up against players. And when you've had a good first three games, your confidence is always high. Hackers has found himself a long boy.
02:04:19 Which is always fun to see when it's in the hands of a M&K player. He's obviously got the digiscope on it as well, which isn't going to be quite as, shall we say, traverse the distance it used to and can't quite do what it used to, but still very, very effective for getting opening damage. Interesting weapon. Got buffed a little bit recently in this mid-season patch. Went from 2.15 headshot bonus multiplier to 2.25. Not much, but...
02:04:41 Devs clearly said Longbow needs a little bit of touch, maybe even just to encourage people to pick it up. Also a gold weapon there as well. So Hockey's not just making the decision Longbow over Sentinel saying, do I want to fully equip Sniper and just call it a day? And I think with the Havoc, Hemlocks, those main ARs doing so much work already for most of these fights, it's fine to take that as long as you got your long range. It means one less thing you've got to solve here and you still have pressure.
02:05:06 Er lässt sich, of course, die Dammage nicht wirklich aufzunehmen, ohne wirklich zu nehmen, einfach nur zu beherrschst, einfach zu beherrschst. Allianz ist jetzt aufzunehmen. Sie sehen, sie hat die Bangle zu übernehmen, die Spieler zu halten, und jetzt sie versuchen, einen Spieler zu verabschieden, und sie werden dann den Dukest. So jetzt ist es ein 2v3 in Allianz. Sie sehen, das ist die Fähigkeit, das ist seine Fähigkeit. Er wird in die Fähigkeit, er wird nur zwei Spieler zu verabschieden, und er ist Hunger zu finden.
02:05:31 Fats just using that Pathfinder zipline to get the pressure up on high and it's enough just showing face to push that team back away from Alliance players though gonna run into Nine Lies Esports as well and so these three teams doing a little do-si-do back and forth who's gonna come out on top Alliance seem the most comfortable as of now we can all swing on a knife's edge great shots coming in from unlucky as well gets the shield crack I'm not sure if the shield swap is there yes it is
02:05:58 So Alliance just kind of resetting. If you're wondering why they threw the Seer Holt down, knowing there was only one player alive from that original fight, it was because Rats had a little look from the bridge. They walked up onto Alliance to see if they could get a pick, but Alliance watched their back, get the Seer Holt down and stall out of that fight. And that was what I was talking about with this meta in general, right? It's so difficult sometimes to third party effectively because that Seer Holt just stalls out. You can't walk into it without taking a little bit of damage or giving information on your position. But GG, speaking of positions, they're looking to clear the Glyzer side now.
Taktische Überlegungen und Teamdynamiken im Apex Legends Pro League Match Day 9
02:06:27
02:06:27 Das ist nur eine Legende, das kann wirklich einen impact haben. Es gibt einen Level von Surprise. Es ist Revenant mit der Crawl. Obviamente nicht zu zeigen. Oder Valkyrie mit der Flight. Wir haben nicht gesehen, in einem sehr lange Zeit. Aber keine Footsteps, wenn du in der Moment bist. Ich glaube, es also bedeutet, dass ein Pathfinder Swing, könnte jemanden aufgarten können, als auch. Aber wenn du Hocken hast, eben nur einen Sekunden oder so, diese Spieler machen die meal. Fullenglisch ist auch, dass sie den Job gemacht haben. Ein Team, ich bin für Serdel, Fenix.
02:06:55 C.J. Rackt, das ist der split-up von Fenix und J. Savage und Forge Gang für eine lange Zeit stand. Nun haben sie geschafft, auf all diese verschiedenen Teams. Fullenglish, doch nicht wirklich able zu machen, dass sie heute so far machen. Sie sind in die 18th spot. Ein großer Wunsch hier könnte für sie ein Wunderschön. Mal sehen Sie, wie sie spielen. Triple Silenz, Baby.
02:07:15 Ja, wirklich gut. Ja, da werden wir in front of uns, aber da ist ein Spot hier und eine Bins hier und wir sind hier, aber wir sind safe at Jen. Das ist das Radren. No Jen, no Jen, no Jen. Nein, wir haben halt Exhaust. Okay, nein, nein, Exhaust. Ich habe Goldhelm, aber ich muss mich aufhören. Ich habe Goldhelm, aber ich muss mich aufhören. Ich muss mich aufhören, okay? Ja, ja. Ja, wir sind aufhören. Ja, wir sind aufhören. Ja, wir sind aufhören. Ja, wir sind aufhören. Ja, wir sind aufhören. Ja, wir sind aufhören. Ja, wir sind aufhören. Wir sind aufhören.
02:07:44 Es ist wirklich schlecht, es ist wirklich schlecht. Wir müssen die Tri-Bins gehen. Ich habe zu beten.
02:07:53 Ich bin auf dem Weg. Ich bin auf dem Weg. Ich bin auf dem Weg. Ich bin auf dem Weg.
02:08:17 We're good for now. We're ready to come to us. Come to me, come to me. We climbed top floor. No, no, no, no. We're delayed from you. We're delayed from you. Just come top floor. Find whoever's here with me. We're almost in. We're going to be in on second floor. We need to take control of top floor here. Careful, there's another door.
02:08:40 Ja, ja, ja, ja, ja.
02:09:09 Ja, ich bin die O-Ted.
02:09:33 Okay, so we need our balcony underneath this part. It might you might be inside the main room doesn't matter we're playing for second forward. Yeah, I'm 41 energy. I mean I want us to have second for like just tens of side doors as well
02:09:56 Ja, wir sind unter uns, unter uns.
02:10:25 Ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja,
Entscheidende Momente und Teamstrategien im ALGS Pro League Match Day 9
02:10:39
02:10:39 Massive moment there for Full English, keeping their hopes alive, and they are hopes indeed. They will have to win this game, and pretty much to make Regional Finals, it's looking like they'll have to win this day. A tall task for sure, but considering how many teams like Stay Healthy and Vex are in this lobby and already performing, they've got to beat them, and they've got to take some of the places away from teams like Eternal. So a lot of work to be done, Mark, but that's a good start.
02:11:06 ExoClan hat sich jetzt auch schon wieder auf den DMS zu gehen. Wir können die DMS wieder auf den Boden gehen, um die Kräne zu gehen, um das Team zu gehen. Es sieht wie wir jetzt aus der Kräne sind, in und auf der Kräne sind. GG, die in der Lowground haben, haben sie zu kommen zurück. Aber NIP hat die NIP-Eliminativen, um das Siphon-Builder zu sehen. Und sie haben sich dann wieder auf die Siphon-Builder gesagt, wie wir das machen können. Sie hatten Grape Prior zu dieser Zone und haben sie nicht gemacht. So 4-Games mit einem Punkt für sie. Allianz,
02:11:35 I would say they've not been too adverse to picking up points so far today. And now we've got a Kraber. Three Red Evos. Great positioning in the round zone. And it's just a case of Hakkis giving the opportunity to hit some shots this time. And for the first time today, it doesn't quite connect. Trying a 3-2-1 with a Kraber, you really only need like a 2-1. Maybe just a 1 with a Kraber. That's enough right there. Just me? Yeah, just one. And it actually kind of helps because that first bullet allows him to dodge right when the Kraber shot comes in.
02:12:05 But here are two teams definitely fighting for it. Passion U.A. currently in second. The team above them wants to take that place from them and somehow challenge Alliance. It is a tall task for them. Passion U.A. gonna have to make it out first because they're low ground. Have to round it out. This is gonna be Prestes from DMS who's gonna find that kill. Krak will follow it along and finish off Max Strafi as well. Passion U.A. will go out. Danish will fall. And it's still the full English who lose Phoenix in this moment who are alive for now.
02:12:31 Everybody left that building and everybody got torn now. You can see the 3D Max is just trying to pick up the remaining members of the KP that is allowed to come towards them from that Siphon site. So 3D Max is just going to try and swing to finish off these final players, make sure that nobody gets away, pick up the loot on their way back to their building as well. So one thing that's so important to do, even if you have a great spot in zone, is commanding the space in and around it. And that's exactly what 3D Max just did.
02:12:54 Same point total right now in terms of the overall Split League, 3D Max in full English. It's the exact same story of what they'd have to do to succeed. But the biggest story here, the biggest narrative is the boss dog.
02:13:04 Ja, such a big, big 1v1 win from him there. Just had to reload the gun behind the knockdown, then hits the hipfire and manages to clutch up for his team to keep GG alive, and nobody else in the vicinity is close enough to third party them, so it should be a full reset by the looks of things for them. 3D Max!
02:13:33 One of the best spots in zone at the moment. The only problem for them is that I don't know if the gen is available quite now, but should be by the time that zone starts to close. So they can make that a little bit of perimeter around those boxes. DMS though, they want to try and take that spot away. DMS absolutely getting involved. Taskmaster is skipping out from joining his former teammates on Aurora yet again. I've heard calls to get him back, but right now he's saying, no, I'm doing okay with this squad here. We're going to have something to prove. We're going to make it happen.
02:14:01 3-D-Max. Ich habe die Havoc mit 3-B-3-B-3. 3-D-Max haben Sie auf diese Seite. DMS und Gaming Gladiere sind die Flosest zu einem anderen. Wir wissen nicht, wie es das zu spielen wird, aber ich würde sagen, 3-D-Max mit dem Watson-Fence-Pylon haben sie einen Chance zu gewinnen. Gigi hat sie ihren Weg aus dem High-Ground. So würde ich sagen, das 3-D-Max wird in die beste Position gewinnen, zu gewinnen.
02:14:29 Die Frage ist, was die GG machen hier? Es ist ein Evac, es ist alles oder nichts. Sie werden es versuchen, aber sie werden es versuchen, die Bang-Olt, das bedeutet, es wird viel schwieriger sein. Sie können das nicht versuchen, weil sie müssen sich das aufhören, so sie werden das aufhören. Also, Sie werden nicht nur die Evac Tower verwendet werden, sondern auch für die Motorflyer, die es auswählen, um die Warhacks zu verwenden, und DMS, die Systeme genommen haben, um GG, die sind auf die Lowground.
02:14:56 Ja, Press is still the last one alive. 3D Max are looking good, though, but it's just yet Queen as well as Kizeron, who are alive to try to finish it off. It should be Gaming Gladiator is able to come in and swing this one. You would imagine so, right? GG from the low ground. Make a huge, huge play. DMS have one still alive. GG down to a two. And 3D Max also down to a two. So this is not one team with a number superiority situation, but it looks like the job will be done for them. GG will walk in from that low ground up to the height.
02:15:25 Und sie werden das Spiel hier auf World's Edge nehmen. Es war ein wunderschönes Spiel, um die Position zu gewinnen, um das Spiel zu gewinnen, um das Spiel zu gewinnen. Und ich denke, was sie gemacht hat, das war so sehr beeindruckt, zu mir.
02:15:37 Was just the combo of the evac and risking that Bangalore ultimate just to buy them time. So you cannot afford to shoot this away. This is truly our only opportunity to win the game. And they played it perfectly. I think they followed up with a Fuse ult quite quickly too. That mother load just took out a little bit of DMS. And it made it so difficult for them to actually push. The chaos led to a big win from Gaming Gladiators. Shout outs to them. Great org. Love the representation. Love how they got that W as well. And Mark just played that final circle perfectly.
02:16:05 Ja, sehr schwierig. Even wenn sie auf der Lowground, GG ist, wenn ihr die Team auf der Highground, DMS ist, dass ihr euch geholfen habt, und dann mit der Evac Tower auf und der Motherlobe, die Fuse auf die Fuse ist, da ist eigentlich kein Weg zu sein. Also, ihr sehtet, ihr sehtet, ihr sehtet, ihr sehtet, ihr sehtet, ihr sehtet, ihr sehtet, ihr sehtet, ihr sehtet, ihr sehtet, ihr sehtet, ihr sehtet, ihr sehtet, ihr sehtet, ihr sehtet, ihr sehtet, und ihr sehtet, 3D Max also hat ein LOS auf, so ihr sehtet, so ihr sehtet, so ihr sehtet, ihr sehtet, ihr sehtet, ihr sehtet, ihr sehtet.
02:16:32 Gigi, und es war so gut für sie, um das E-Vac zu nehmen, um das E-Vac zu haben, weil, ich meine, wenn DMS in dieser Situation decide, hey, wir werden versuchen, das Bangle, wir werden versuchen, das E-Vac zu machen, dann 3D-Mack ist das E-Vac zu gehen, dann 3D-Mack ist das E-Vac zu gehen. So, Gigi hat die Hand ein bisschen gewonnen, und es ist einfach großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig.
02:16:55 I actually agree with you that they forced, it's pretty similar to Danish, I think we saw that zone in Game 2, where just the positioning of how they played that, it forced Exoclan to make a decision that was not, it was in their best interest, but it was obviously also in Danish's best interest. GG forced DMS to run away, but in this case specifically, I actually think...
02:17:15 I think DMS should have maybe ate it. Because how is GG getting up without that evac? I don't think they can actually get into zone. And so you might have almost secured a second there. But again, DMS probably want that one back. They'll say we did in 19 points. That's okay.
02:17:30 Und das ist wirklich die Unterschiede, in terms der Punkt totale. Die drei Kills sind in der Endgaming. Gladiators nehmen die Win-3D Max 3rd place, in terms of Position, aber nicht in terms of Overall Points. Stay Elfie will Inch them out, auch die FullEnglish, die ein guter Spiel haben. Allianz ist auch die Top 5. Ja, Passion Uwe, das ist eine der Team, die sehr, sehr, sehr late ist. Sie haben keine KP, obwohl sie ein paar Placement Points bekommen haben. Die anderen Seite, ich werde sie wieder highlighten. NIP, ich meine, du hast es. Arguably zu late, an dieser Stelle.
02:17:59 Es ist nicht gut für sie. Nur die drei Punkte von einem Zone, wo sie Prio hatten und Ring Console hatten, waren nicht gut genug, wenn sie für die Spiel-2-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split-Split
02:18:22 No, DMS, fantastic showcase. Got a lot of kills, not a lot of assists. So maybe some individual play happening as well. Sometimes that's the magic that makes things happen in a game like this. But a ton of damage clearly held a very strong position up until the very end. And that's going to result in second place so far for Gaming Gladiators. Alliance holding on with two more games left. That's not as comfortable of a lead to secure it. DMS moving in right behind them. Passion UA and ANC outplayed. Big difference though is that just 8 points.
02:18:52 Das ist der Fall, das ist der Unterschied zwischen den Region Finals oder nicht für diese Teams. Ja, es wirklich ist. Und wir sind jetzt zu dem Crunch Point. Wir haben nur zwei Games zu gehen. Es ist die letzte zwei Games für diese Teams, für die Split, für die Season, weil sie nicht mehr für die Region Finals gewinnen. Sie werden nicht mehr für die Region Finals gewinnen. So, strap in, everybody. Es wird ein paar Jahre lang.
Crunch Time im ALGS EMEA Pro League Split 2: Teams kämpfen um die Qualifikation für die Regional Finals
02:19:16
02:19:16 While we get you ready for game five and six, remember what this is all leading to is that special time in Mannheim, Germany. If you're thinking about joining us, I would consider it very heavily. Let's go give you a sneak peek on what to expect.
02:20:20 Official Controller Partner of the Apex Legends Global Series.
02:20:34 Officially crunch time now because we have two games to go here, Dan. Welcome back, by the way. I hope you enjoyed your break and you've beautifully reframed yourself as well. You were so tall. What happened there? Just here. Just go back, go back. That's off my mark. I set a mark for a reason, Mark. I've said marks many times. It's crunch time, Dan. Dan, it's crunch time. You're ruining everything. It's crunch time anyway, everybody. Welcome back, Dan. It's great to have you back.
02:20:59 Two more games to go. And I've got to say, this is turning out to be a very, very interesting matchday for some of our, I would say, more established teams for different reasons. Some of them looking great. Alliance looking fantastic. NIP barely had a point on the board. And then you've got that chasing pack as well, who's just, it's so close at the moment. Like, anything can change in these last two games. And that's kind of been the story of Amir, right? All split along. It feels like everything is coming down to that last game. And everything is coming down to who can put the points on the board when it matters the most.
02:21:29 It's a different story for all of those teams you've just mentioned as well, trying to chase something a little bit different, whether it's trying to be in a good position to get yourself towards playoffs, secure playoffs, dominate and be at the top, or whether it's getting into one of those remaining four regional final positions, because we've got already 16 teams guaranteed, and now those who are trying to make it in.
02:21:50 Das war's. Das war's. Das war's. Das war's.
02:22:19 Und natürlich, ihr könnt euch das Story auf Faceit Watch, auch die öffentliche Multiview Streaming-Platform für die ALGS.
02:22:43 Watch ALGS if you want to watch that and of course bring up the map overhead as well, which is very important, I will say. Very, very important for not just us, but for you as well to understand how your favorite teams are rotating and who they're about to run into.
02:22:57 Very excited to see who really kind of takes this game. Like, just grasps it as well. Like, take the risks. I think that we've seen far too many teams just being afraid to make a play, to make a push, and whether that be because maybe they don't feel confident in their teamfighting or not, but if you don't take that risk and take that moment here today, then you might just be living to rue it, because you won't be in regional finals, you won't be at playoffs, and you'll just be left kicking yourself a little bit. I think the IGLs, it's their chance now to step up.
02:23:24 Put your big boy pants on and say, actually, I believe in our team and I do believe that we have what it takes to still push ourselves into Regional Finals. It's an interesting moment for a lot of these teams. Like we mentioned, there's so many different things to play for at the moment in this Final Match Day before we head to Regional Finals, right? Who's going to be at the top of the leaderboards? Who's going to be in the top eight, those qualification spots heading into the Regional Finals? Who's going to be within touching distance of those LAN qualification spots? And then, of course...
02:23:50 Wer wird es um die Region Finals zu erreichen? Die Top 20-team werden vielleicht einfach auf die Fairytale-Telle gewinnen, wenn wir da sind. Aber für heute ist GG, die haben einfach zurückgegangen. Eine Winschreie auf Stormpoint, eine Winschreie auf World's Edge, um sie auf einen fantastischen Lekt-Gamerun. Ja, wir reden über Allianz, die zu beantworten, zu beantworten, zu beantworten, zu beantworten, zu beantworten, zu beantworten, zu beantworten, zu beantworten, mit Amir. Gaming Gladiators sind auch in der Schauspieler zu beantworten. Sie sind nur sechs Punkte hinter Allianz in den overallen Standings, und mit...
02:24:17 Two back-to-back victories. They put themselves really up there alongside Alliance here today and still got two more games to try and find out who can be top going into said regional finals. I will say that the points that have been secured so far for Gaming Gladiators will mean they're going to playoffs. When we looked right at the start of the...
02:24:34 Ja, das war's für heute. Wir haben über die Magik-Number über 82 Punkte gehört. Und GG hat sich über den Platz zu gewinnen, um es zu gewinnen, um es zu gewinnen, um es zu gewinnen, um es zu gewinnen, um es zu gewinnen, um es zu gewinnen, um es zu gewinnen, um es zu gewinnen, um es zu gewinnen.
02:25:03 Ja, das ist natürlich etwas zu halten. Looking at the Zone, though, Dan, it looks like it's going to be one just outside, I should say, towards Stacks, potentially? Could be a Stacks finish. Could also finish just outside Dome, as well. Did you like the question, Mark? Yeah, because it's an interesting one, right? Maybe Stacks, possibly? It's what everyone's going to be saying. I think a lot of IGLs are going to be kind of scratching their heads a little bit, saying, do we...
02:25:23 I mean, if you're in the south-east of the region, you are going to commit to an early position here. NIP, rats, FA Kids, players, you're all going to find yourselves going somewhere. But for those who are arriving a little bit later, you might say, hmm, do we actually take a ring console here instead and see if we see, excuse me, any sort of shift?
02:25:40 Towards the lava around launch site? Or do we see it shift a little bit to when NIP find themselves? But I wouldn't be surprised if we end just south of Stax. That building that is further south of Stax. We've seen it finish there a few times. So FA Kids arguably are going to have priority to that position. I was going to say, it's interesting, right? Because players are big more, they get ring console. FA Kids got ring console. Rats, you can see they have ring console over at launch site where they dropped. They've already gone over to Dome, by the way. NIP did not.
02:26:06 I have a Ring Console, but the read of the Zone looks pretty darn good coming in from Nasky and Co. So we'll have to see if they can play that. They're going to be playing the Vault Tunnel for quite some time. Elsewhere, we can see a little bit of a scuffle happening in and around the outsides of the Respawn Village at the moment. The truck where we see some endgames taking place is this time being the subject of a little bit earlier fighting. I don't know if NIP have got the read, by the way. I think they might have just gone to the Vault to loot and they might get lucky if they play for a Ring Console.
02:26:34 ... in Stax. Ich weiß nicht, es ist schwer zu sagen. Wenn du in die Zone bist, dann könnte ich eine Süd-East gehen. Und vielleicht bin ich überraschend die Importanz von Nasky. So wir werden sehen, wie sie ein bisschen weitergehen können. Aber es wird gut sein für sie, um eine Ring-Console in Stax zu machen. Für andere Teams, die alle von den Süd-East und den Norden sind, wird es ein bisschen mehr von einem Treacherous-Journey. Nine Lieser, Overlook, werden sie müssen durch die Süd-East gehen.
02:26:59 Through Geyser, then through Big Mord. That's two checkpoints you have to go through. Two chokeholds you have to go through. So it shouldn't really be enjoyable for them, but...
02:27:09 There is always that opportunity that you can take fights, you win fights, you get better armor, and then you're going to be in a good, more advantageous position a little bit later on. One team who's not in an advantageous position right now is going to be DMS. You just saw one knock coming in. However, on the other side of that, you can see Forbidden also took a little bit of damage. 3D Max, I think, who were behind them doing a little bit more damage. Zero nothing has nothing. No health whatsoever as he is going to be knocked. And 3D Max just sandwiching these two teams together, and they are the delicious bread on one side.
02:27:38 3D Max, sie sind 24 in den Overalls an der Moment. Sie sind 16 Punkte hinter 20 Position und sie sind in 9th. So, wenn sie 9th wären, sie würden 11 Punkte bekommen. Das wäre nicht genug genug zu bekommen. So, wir müssen sie wiederholfen, um die Top 5, Top 4 Position zu gewinnen, wenn sie für Regionals qualifizieren. So, still viel zu tun für 3D Max.
02:28:04 Full English, who had a pretty good previous game when it came to Paypeen. Maybe not the endgame they would have wanted, but did a good job cleaning out Syphon. Now they're going to be flying in as well. And here goes CJ. That is a beautiful spray coming in from him. Dale's going to move in and should be able to hit the rares as well, as they'll have a little bit of cover from not only the boxes that are in and around them, those crates, but also because they've got Fanex up on the height as well, just denying any team from pushing without putting some damage out himself.
02:28:28 Really good push coming in from FullEnglish here outside of launch site. Alliance have a little look at this though. They want to push through the chokes just on the other side from Tree as we jump into the POV of Hakkis who has been a pleasure to watch today. He really has and it looks like it's going to be more of the same as Deniz do get eliminated. Alliance are still tearing through this lobby.
02:28:46 As we maybe even start to look at potential for highest points earned in a series this split with the way they're going. But we'll go into those numbers if they start to close in on them. Rats also get eliminated as now GG, they're in engagement. Light takes a little bit of damage to the fire in the flames. But he will carry on as Lufka now throws a couple of Barkstars out as well. Trying to deny that team moving up to take that second floor away from them. Blacklist International with a team who are down on the other side of this. And these two teams have been...
02:29:14 Pretty close in the leaderboards for the last two game days that we have seen. But GG, I mean, what a performance it's been from them today, Dan. Two back-to-back wins. And it's always more impressive for me when you see it one on Stormpoint, one on World's Edge, because it shows that everybody is working so well together.
02:29:28 Ja, es zeigt die consistency auf beiden Maps und es zeigt auch, was ein Threat du hast, in den Regional Finals und sogar in International Competition, wenn Matchpoint kommt. Denn die Wins werden absolut alles sein, wenn wir Matchpoint passieren können. Aber jetzt werden sie auf den Norden, und wir werden mit ihnen checken. Ein Team, die heute nicht so viel Erfolg haben...
02:29:47 They are one of the squads that are in the qualification area of top eight of playoffs and as you mentioned still have regional finals to get points on the board but they will be chasing teams going into regional finals if they do not find some sort of points going into these last two games here. They did manage to get one knock and they've managed to take a really really strong position deep towards dome here so.
02:30:08 A little bit of confidence for them, at least just being able to force a position. Even though it's not a clean team wipe, it's enough to keep them all alive and take a really good spot away. There's a Crypto drone up in the air as well. That usually means that Pash and UA are within the vicinity. And yes, indeed, they are inside of Zone, inside of Dome, which is inside of...
02:30:25 So if it is the zone that finishes just outside the building on the south, FA Kids could be in a good position. Players could get stuck by being...
02:30:49 auf den Norden, die centralen Stacks sind. Wenn du das Gebäude kommst, und dann ein Team kommt in die Gebäude, die sich in die Gebäude zu finden, das sieht aus wie die Spieler zu stoppen. Das könnte ein bisschen eine Annoying Situation sein, aber die Spieler in der Moment sind nicht nur nur ein, sondern zwei Gebäude. Und ich finde es, dass man sich nicht nur einen Gebäude aus dem Gebäude zu nehmen, aber wir werden sehen, dass das ein Gebäude aus dem Gebäude zu spielen. Aber wir werden sehen, wie das ein bisschen später ist, als Outplayed ist, eine der Team, die ich gesprochen habe, war zu versuchen, für die Region Finale zu gewinnen.
02:31:15 Yeah, they're trying to swing as well, and that's a great swing. You can see Shex is going to be able to take down one. They'll take down two, and that's FA Kids, who have been so dangerous in those teamfights. Well, ANC outplayed to show that they've got a little bit of danger about them as well, as they pick up the clean wipe from that height that they were holding for so long. So a really, really good teamfight for them, and I love the fact that they were aggressive after they got that damage. Do not let FA Kids survive, because a lot of the time, if you allow them to survive, they'll come back and bite you in the backside.
02:31:43 Surprising amount of commotion happening in Harvester at the moment, but that's everyone trying to move down. It's kind of one of those central areas of the map where everyone moves through, maybe tries to hit the Survey Beacon on the way, and then carries on on their journey. But it looks like Vex are going to leave and retreat this fight, and...
02:31:59 For good reason. I guess Vex don't want to force themselves into an engagement. Vex are very close to qualifying for Regional Finals. They came into this being in 18th position, 49 points. And even though they've not had the best of days yet, as long as they can just find something in these last two games, they should be one of those teams that finds themselves in Regional Finals in that top 20.
02:32:18 We can survey beacons. Kalamitris is having a good think about hitting it. Maybe he's going to wait for the zone to get a little bit closer before he does. Elsewhere, you can see DMS now making their way from the eggshell, the broken eggshell, in towards one of the buildings' stacks. Now, they have zone information. They know where it's going to go. They hit their next beacon. And the height of this far building might be the best, I would say, best worst-case scenario for them, knowing that they can't get in towards Dome at the moment.
02:32:44 But being able to hold out all the other teams from Stax by having this height, having this building, which is on the southern side of it, will pretty much guarantee them, if they play it well, some KP a little bit later on in the game. GG over at Maud for now. So they've got a really tough rotate to make as well through Stax and towards its own too.
Strategische Manöver und entscheidende Kämpfe im ALGS Pro League Finale
02:33:00
02:33:00 GG do have the option of going all the way east if they'd like, around the kind of mountain area, the little eggshell to work with, and then they can potentially find themselves in a building on the eastern side of Stax as well. So it looks like that's what they're going to try and attempt here. But then if the zone does continue to shift south, you're then going through building after building, trying to defeat team after team. But if anyone can do it, it would be the Gaming Gladiators, because they've been fighting so successfully here today.
02:33:30 A little bit of calm inside of the zone at the moment. Just a couple of shots being exchanged outside of the zone at the moment. Just trying to see what teams are close to each other. It looks like everyone is kind of chilling, to be honest with you. Alliance and Vex might have a little look at each other. Just outside the launch site on the northern side of that. Forbidden within the vicinity of that fight as well. Exoclan having to back up for now. As you can see, Feudor takes a little bit of damage. And it gives you a good kind of outlay of what I was talking about there. Exoclan only on Blues at the moment. And approaching this late.
02:34:02 Ich habe noch nicht zu werden, um die Purple zu sehen, der Slayer braucht 450 damage, um ihn zu werden.
02:34:09 Ich denke, dass sie ein wenig zu tun haben, um die Zonen zu haben, bevor sie wirklich ein guter Rund auf diese Zone können. Aber sie werden für den nächsten Zonen nicht mehr tun müssen. Sechs position in der Moment für ExoClan. Ich denke, das ist ein guter Punkt, weil die Teams, wie NIP, zum Beispiel, nicht gefunden haben heute. Also, sie würden leapfrog sie und machen NIP, um sie zu schießen. Aber sie sind auch in competition mit Dänisch, die haben dann gefunden, aber sie finden sich ein wenig weiter als sie.
02:34:36 Für Exo, in dem Moment, sie würden die 8e Position beobachten, wenn wir in den Spiel-Positions in den Region Finals kommen. Aber natürlich, in den Region Finals gibt es noch viele Punkte zu bekommen. Vex, sie haben viel zu tun, wenn man zu den Region Finals kommt. Sie sind jetzt auf 9e Position in die 18e Position, nicht nur in heute's Matchday, aber auch in den overallen Standings. Mal sehen, wie sie mit diesem Listener machen.
02:35:06 Er ist weg. Er ist weg. Er ist weg. Er ist weg. Das ist nicht weg. Wir können das hier spielen, glaube ich. Er ist weg. Können wir das vielleicht? Nachdem? Nachdem, nachdem. Wir fangen die zurück. Wir fangen die zurück zuerst. Grabber hier. Hier? Ja, ja.
02:35:37 Wir sind gut, wir haben uns. Ja, ich habe keine Helden. Ich habe jetzt eine Helden. 40. Lukak, der Bank, 60. Er ist ein Duell. Nachdem, nachdem. Ich sehe sie nicht. Wir gehen für die Position. Wir gehen für die Position. Wir gehen für die Position. Ich fühle mich, ich will. Wir sind gut, ich will.
02:36:09 Es geht. Es geht auf der Seite. Ja, wir brauchen die Seite. Ja, ja, wir brauchen die Seite Seite Seite Seite Seite Seite Seite Seite Seite Seite Seite Seite Seite Seite
02:36:39 Können wir auf dem, nach der Saison? Okay, ja. Okay, nein, nein, nein, nein, nein, nein. Killing, killing.
02:36:59 We're back in the game and back into the action as you can see the Vexor will fall the rap came in behind them which caused them all sorts of problems as we see Exoclan try and move up on this Alliance have been eliminated in the meantime so no bomb game for them but it's the full English again Dan arriving a little bit later than we've seen them previously do in some previous game days and it's given them some success here that's difficult to say
02:37:20 Und es ist viel zu tun für den Füllenenglisch, genau die gleiche Position des 3D Max, die ich vorhin erwähnt habe. Sie finden sich in die 24th Position. Sie sind ziemlich weit entfernt, über 15, 16 Punkte entfernt von Top 20. Sie müssen sich in die Top 4, die Top 5 am Ende des Tages.
02:37:36 And being in 12th right now, a victory here could change everything for them. But whether they're able to achieve that will remain to be seen as all the other teams are going to start to make their way around them and the full English have to go through them. Outplayed in their way, forbidden in their way. This isn't exactly an easy journey for them right now.
02:37:53 It certainly isn't. You can see it every time they take a step forward, just traces from bullets flying in from Dome and the rock formations outside of it. So Full English have to kind of brute force this at the moment, trying to get to a position where they can deny as many lines of sight as they can. Phoenix is burning in the lava. He's down at 1 HP as well, but will survive for now. 3D Max trying to have a look at this, trying to see if they can clip maybe his heals as he moves forward, but this is just treacherous. You can see the zone is forcing them forward. Full English is going to have to burn this generator as well to eat up some nades, give them a little bit more shielding.
02:38:22 aber sie werden sich in ein paar Momenten zu kämpfen.
02:38:45 Well, 3D Max should be able to look down, but I've got to say, that's an incredible, incredible job for Full English to find themselves anywhere near safe. Even if one of them was able to survive, that would have been good. But here come NIP, moving it in onto Nine Lies. But Amphi now, he's left on his own. I thought there was so much damage that surely it was going to be a comfortable win for them. And now Full English are going to move in. They're going to take out NIP. Full English really trying to give themselves the best chance of getting into regional finals.
02:39:13 ...ne weekend. But NIP, they get eliminated. How much could that hurt? Their chances of getting to playoffs once we get to those regional finals. As a dropship is in the air and we are seeing a respawn happening as well. Stay healthy. Are going to be healthy. Back up to a full three. Blacklist International.
02:39:29 Ja, das ist interessant. Wir haben ExoClan und Blacklist International jetzt alle in der Konstruktion gegründet. GG, ich würde sagen.
02:39:57 in the best spot at the moment because everybody else has got a partner at least inside of their building when it comes to teams full english might have a really good look at this as well because they'll be able to wait extremely i would say an extreme amount of time in comparison to everyone else as to when they have to fight or
02:40:14 als wenn sie mit einem anderen Team haben. Also können sie hier warten, arbeiten sie zu dieser Zone und wenn alle weg sind, können sie in eine gewisse Position gewinnen und gewinnen. Und das ist wichtig, Fullenglish zurück zu einem 3-3. Und boy, sie brauchen sie, wenn sie die Region Finale gewinnen. Es ist nicht so, dass sie unnoticed sind, auf der Souten Seite gehen.
02:40:30 One thing I will say is all these teams in this construction building and Gaming Gladiators might have to move before Nine Lies and DMS when the final circle comes into it, but this is where Legend Composition is going to be massive for you. What have you got in terms of cover? What have you got in terms of utility? Have you saved grenades? Stacks finishes are always very grenade heavy, and if you don't have anything to either A stop those grenades or throw them yourself, then you might find yourself in a tough spot.
02:40:54 Ihr könnt auch die Fuses sehen, dass es wirklich wichtig ist. Sie sehen, die Fullenglishen haben ein bisschen verletzt. Die Knochen haben auch Fuse-Queue zu Oblivion. Die Knuckle Cluster ist ein Problem für sie, aber sie haben das Lubepill, oder? Es ist die Knuckle Cluster der Knuckle Cluster.
02:41:12 Und jetzt CJ hat sich die Batterie an. Die Nades fliegen in, sie sind bereit, sie wissen, dass sie ein Threat hier sind, Gigi. Ich sagte, dass es Nade-heavy ist und man braucht etwas zu stoppen. Nun, die Fulenglish haben nichts zu stoppen, die Nades sind allgehebend. Ich wollte, dass sie nicht gesehen sind, auf der Souten Seite haben, aber sie haben sich bemerkt. Wenn die Zonen in die Zonen kommt, Fulenglish wird eine der ersten, die sich in die Zonen muss.
02:41:34 There is still the chance that as the zone comes in, everyone kind of turns their attention to other teams, but they are going to try and get back up to a full three again. Now Fuse, you can see what impact he has on these lobbies at the moment. Not only is he going to be the knuckle clusters, the ability to carry more grenades, but also when you see the evacs go down and you see the mother load going down, it's going to mean extreme wallhacks for a lot of teams and poor old full English at the moment. Every single Fuse in the lobby is looking at them.
02:42:05 Manet ist absolut hell auf der Souten Seite, aber jetzt wird es interessant sein, auf der Souten Seite zu sehen. All diese Teams auf der Construction-Buildung und die Stärkung-Archstelle sind auf einmal. Gaming Gladiators haben bereits einen, aber müssen die Revive bekommen werden. Wir werden die Revive bekommen. Und wir haben noch acht Quads lefte in der Circle. Das Killfeed ist jetzt zu blow up.
02:42:21 Full English still alive, by the way. Blast is taking damage as he tries to cross towards his teammate Lufka. They're trying to take this position away. Bang Ol's down in front of them as well. And all of a sudden, Full English, they're starting to give a little bit back. They were saying, we remember how this went. But unfortunately, it's not going to be good enough for them. Full English eliminated and GG will get ahead of the traffic. We'll hold this side of zone, but light is down.
02:42:40 und sie werden müssen auf einen Push halten. Allgemein, Spieler haben direkt in die Zentren-Zone versucht, aber es wird sehr schwierig zu tun. Jeder wird sich um sie zu tun. Es wird sich um sie zu tun. No Bloodhound zu versuchen, diese Zeit zu geben, als Gaming Gladiators zu nur einen. Blasto ist jetzt der Job, die Eliminating Blacklist International. Fünf Quads jetzt remain. Die MS-Gone ist auch so, so Gaming Gladiators ist nur Blasto, aber er ist auf der Seite, wo niemand ist. Und er wird vielleicht ein Team-Mate zurück in die Position zu vielleicht stickieren.
02:43:10 Schleier ist jetzt hier für Exo-Klan, auch noch ein paar Knoll-Knockdowns. 9 Laiers haben jetzt schon geblieben. In der meantime, es gibt 4 Quads jetzt noch mehr. Und Blast versucht, seine Augen zu sehen, wo der Exo-Klan war. Stay Healthy wird jetzt geblieben. Und jetzt sollte er auch noch ein Exo-Klan nehmen. Es gibt 2 Quads noch mehr. GG zu 2. Can they clutch? Es ist ein Duo. Schuss kommen in, aber sie sind nicht gut genug. Und die Spieler werden geschlossen.
02:43:34 Players who made the early move right to dead center of the circle used the cover of everyone else's gunfire and said, look, this should be a comfortable one as long as we can avoid all those sightlines. The smokes went down, but they picked their fights successfully, and now players will find themselves with a fantastic victory, and they can put themselves in a really good spot as well to try and get all the way into those regional finals.
02:43:57 Yeah, another great game from GG, though. Good KP, good position for them, good placement in the overalls as well. And that is certainly going to make that lead at the top for Alliance even tighter than it was previously. So all to play for at the top of the table going into our final game, as well as, of course, the qualification spots for the regional finals. But, I mean, what an endgame that was, right? So many, I would say, ultimates being saved for that final moment. You saw bang ults, you saw mother loads going down from the fuse. It was...
02:44:23 Kind of a situation of like, not a lot of the teams really had a clear sight onto another, with the smokes going down as well. It was kind of like, we got to try and play tight here, wait to poke and see if we can see anyone that's going to give us an opportunity to get a knock.
02:44:35 I think what was frustrating for Gaming Gladiators was the fact they couldn't knock out Full English as well with all those grenades. If they had been able to take down Full English, it could have been a very different game for Gaming Gladiators. They skirt around, they take that side, and then they would have been able to have the zone to their back and be far healthier to take the fights. But instead, they lost that one player against Full English. And in the end, players, which is able to kind of clean up the pieces of themselves and XO. But for players, they were in 21st position coming into today. So they are chasing that regional final spot and a victory there. We might just see them in the regional.
02:45:04 Finals next week. Hey, there could be a little bit of magic for players. There was certainly some magic in that previous game from them as they put 10 kills on the board alongside the 12 placements to give them 22 points. GG just behind them as well. Big KP for them, 7 alongside their placement points. 16 will be their final total in game number 5. Exoclan with 11. Elsewhere you can see Blacklist International. I was interested to see how they would get to that zone and how they would play it. Well, they get 9 KP on their way towards some decent placement points, ending up with 12 down.
02:45:30 Ja, 12 ist gut für Blacklist International, das ist sicher. Aber jetzt sind die Teams, die sich nicht zu tun haben. Ich habe gesagt, dass Vex nicht viel zu tun haben, denn sie waren in die 18e Position. Aber mit nur einem Punkt, und sie waren in die 18e Position. Teams wie Players, Teams wie ANC Outplayed, haben die Möglichkeit, die Vex-Frog-Vex und sie aus der Top-20. So, Vex-Vex werden hier brauchen, in Match 6, wenn sie sich in die Region Finals gewinnen. Hier sind die Stats von der ersten und zweiten Platz.
02:46:00 Vielen Dank für's Zuschauen!
02:46:26 Wir sind jetzt auf der Top-Pack, die sich jetzt in der Top-20-Position befinden. Sie sind in der 4th, und sie werden 16 Punkte bekommen, das würde sie in die Top-20-Position bringen.
02:46:55 in den Top 8 zu sehen, für einen Platz zu sehen. Also wirklich gut für die beiden Teams, die ich gerade habe. Ich habe gesagt, es war crunch time, Dan. Es ist jetzt officially big crunch time. Das ist nicht so gut, und es ist sicherlich nicht so gut, aber wir haben noch ein weiteres Spiel zu gehen, wenn wir wieder zurückkommen sind.
02:48:48 Ja, unsere Top 16 Teams sind bereits für Regional Finals und wir müssen noch fighten.
02:49:15 Vielen Dank.
02:49:29 Sie haben leider nicht gewonnen, als sie auf den Fullenglisch gewonnen haben, das war ein bisschen überraschend auf der Push durch die Final-Circle. Sie haben nicht die vollen Kapazität, die sie brauchen. Es war die Spieler, die Central-Zone sehr schnell ausgedrückt haben, die die Krates als Cover ausgedrückt haben, und dann haben sie einfach die anderen Teams, die nicht mehr ausgedrückt haben. Eine Stacks-Lobby, eine Stacks-Finisch ist immer sehr interessant und ein sehr Spaß zu machen.
02:49:56 Das war's für heute. Das war's für heute. Das war's für heute.
02:50:22 At the moment, Cybercats are the team in 16th place on 52 points. They are, or should be, good for LAN. But outside of that, everyone else still has something to play for. ETH, who are in 17th, they're on 51 points. They are the vulnerable team who are not playing today, but can be caught by the likes of Vex, the likes of players, the likes of ANC Outplayed, for example. All three of those teams are chasing. Then you've got those who have to do a little bit more. The Full English, 3D Max, Rats.
02:50:51 A victory in this last game could send them into the Regional Finals, where you still would have a chance to get to LAN, albeit unlikely if you're down in 20th position. But remember, whoever wins Regional Finals gets a spot at Split 2 Playoffs. It gives you a chance, and that's all you can ask for sometimes when you haven't had the greatest of splits. If you get an opportunity, if you get a chance, then who knows what can happen, especially in Match Point Finals. Anyway...
Spannungsgeladene Finalrunde und strategische Überlegungen
02:51:17
02:51:17 We're into our final game of the day and something to keep your eyes on as well if you're a fan of what's happening at the top of the leaderboards as well is GG and Alliance are so close to each other in first and second place respectively. So again stories at both ends of the tables at the moment and players are winners of game number five where they're gonna be feeling pretty good about what they just got done. Yeah.
02:51:38 So they're in fourth at the moment overall. And if they do stay there, it should be enough to secure them a spot at Regional Finals. The only thing that could happen here is if they go out early and then we start to see some of the other teams around them just pip them and send them further down that leaderboard. But if they can finish top five, they'll be delighted. Regional Finals will be all but guaranteed. And then they can start thinking about having that what if moment of do we get to land? Now, what's further than that is...
02:52:02 They're in fourth right now. If they push themselves up into that top three, they can maybe start to think about, all right, we are getting closer to the top eight spots at that point. And regional finals, it doesn't have to be a win. Maybe we can just get ourselves up there to be in those top eight. So that's still a consideration and still a possibility for some of these squads who are fighting for points.
02:52:20 Well, Zone is an Overlook Zone. I'm pretty confident in that, I would say. It looks like all of the back of Overlook is in at the moment. However, we have seen those funky shifts that have happened, so it could go a little bit wonky a little bit later in the day, but it looks like Nine Lies are trying to play down those tracks for now, and they did have the Ring console themselves, so they'll have some really, really good info to play off of the back of, and it looks like they're going to be playing Overlook for now.
02:52:43 Wir sehen uns jetzt, wer ist zu sehen, wer ist zu sehen, wer ist zu sehen. Sie sehen, Geyser, sie haben Ring Console. NIP, sie haben Survey Beacon, aber sie sind bereits auf der Weg zur Zone. Fragment Monument hat Ring Console, auch. So ein paar P.O.I.s, die die Zone zu Ende haben, haben die Information. Elsewhere, Blacklist International. Wir werden ein bisschen zu sehen, und wir sehen ein paar von diesen, als Teams werden ein bisschen desperate für points.
02:53:09 Well, Blacklist International, who already have a spot at Regional Finals, but would like to be able to push themselves a little bit further up the leaderboards to try and be in consideration for those playoffs. And as I've said, for a lot of these other teams, a win could change everything for them. They're in 10th position at the moment, but a victory could send them right up into that top five, which would be some much needed points prior to the Regional Finals.
02:53:31 Ich denke, NAP hat sich beide Serby Beacon und Ring-Console hat. Es sieht aus wie es ein weirder Icon ist, dass sie sich auf einen Topf haben. Ich muss voll-schreien meine Map-Thinge sein. Even voll-schreiening ist still tough. No, no idea. Ich glaube, es wird mir glauben, dass es wahrscheinlich ein Ring-Console wird. Aber das ist großartig für 9Lives, die auf den Overlook sind, in die 23rd Position in den Overalls, außerhalb der Regional-Final-Spots. Wenn sie das Spiel gewinnen, dann wird es immer die Möglichkeit, dass sie sich in den Überlook empfehlen.
02:54:00 within that top 20. So the teams we're going to be watching, Players, Vex, ANC Outplayed, and Nine Lies, and then even 3D Max and the Full English Rats, they all still have the chance to get to Regional Finals.
02:54:14 The players, you can see that they have the ring console information. They're going to have good information on where that zone is going to be going. NIP at the other side of this vault tunnel and actually going to be playing up on the upper side of it. And the looks of things might have actually continued to rotate through the other side. So no surprise there's going to be somebody watching that exit, which is going to be staying healthy, who is positioned inside of Overlook at the moment. So we take our eyes away from Overlook and to some of the teams who are going to have to rotate their way through.
02:54:40 Wir sind ein bisschen weiter weg. Eine von ihnen ist A&C Outplayed. Jetzt müssen wir sehr vorsichtig sein, denn die Rats sind auch in der Harvester. Allianz sind auch vorhanden. Es ist ein Fall, um die Zeit zu nehmen, um die Beacon zu bekommen, um die Beacon zu bekommen, um die Beacon zu bekommen, um die Beacon zu bekommen, um die Beacon zu machen, um die Beacon zu machen, um die Beacon zu machen, um die Beacon zu machen, um die Beacon zu machen, um die Beacon zu machen, um die Beacon zu machen, um die Beacon zu machen, um die Beacon zu machen, um die Beacon zu machen, um die Beacon zu machen, um die Beacon zu machen, um die Beacon zu machen.
02:55:08 But that doesn't mean you have to get to 52. 52 just puts you at the guaranteed mark. You could still qualify on 51 in theory, but that does mean that they find themselves in a good position outplayed, but that's bad news for the likes of Vexed. Stay healthy, for example, another team that is in contention, but also could be pushed out of the top 20.
02:55:30 Trying to control the building right at the back of the moment. GG in a great spot again, by the way. Really, really doing well to find themselves into good positions to play from. This rock formation, especially if it does pull maybe towards the train carts a little bit later on or just below. But we have seen some finishes on the position they have to actually find themselves right now. You can control this height and you can control all of the teams who are walking up on you a little bit later. It's not just the height for the endgame. It's so many great lines of sight that you can pick teams off as...
02:55:59 They have to rotate through from that eastern side of World's Edge. So a really, really good spot for them. And you would imagine that they could be in a position to maybe take away first spot if they can hold that spot for the rest of this game.
02:56:12 So Exoclan, 3D Max, 73 Esports, you can see on your screen, they all have to move from that western side through Epicenter and then through that horrible piece of ground where you have to kind of go from the low ground to the upper side where you can be kind of griefed by Gaming Gladiators, if not completely challenged by Gaming Gladiators. So you might want to take a different journey if you do find yourselves there. But Exoclan might actually be running into...
02:56:36 Ich glaube, es ist ein Team unter dem hier. Ich glaube, es ist ein Team unter dem hier. Ich glaube, es ist ein Team unter dem hier.
02:56:55 They've got to be a little bit careful because 73 Esports are also walking up on their position, as you can see. And yes, indeed, it's actually Kizaran. I think it might be a solo now alive for them. He's just trying to play down the low ground and not give any indication of where he is. Move over towards Seiford now. You can see the players. Big, big game for them. They had a monster game in that last one, which has given them the opportunity to qualify for those regional finals. But another solid game for them here.
02:57:21 Und sie haben ihre eigene Fähne in ihren Händen, so die Spieler jetzt versuchen, zu gehen, und ich denke, das ist ein Smartes Ding zu tun, richtig? Du musst nicht in die Fähne nehmen, speziell mit einem Team, die einfach nur eine gewisse Position über dich. Ja, als wenn die Spieler nicht nachdenken sind, hierher werden, sie sollten, um sich in die Region Finals zu finden. Oh, no.
02:57:44 Okay, would you leave a pathfinder behind because power finders are quick enough they can catch up you just have to leave them behind they'll make their own journey that good enough they can sacrifice yourself with a good of pathfinder that's why I always say they couldn't zip line they get quick but I do think that players about a fantastic day and a day when they needed to as well because they were just outside of that top 20 and even though it looks like they should be good there's always that what if so this final game they still have to stay focused but a team that
02:58:12 Also needs to stay focused is Vex. At the moment, they're 18th in the overall standings, but they are last place in today's matches. They need to get into the final circle if they want any chance of going to regional finals. It's the best kill in all of Apex Legends is clipping someone out of the sky. I don't care what anyone else says. That's exactly what Clemby managed to do there onto the final member of ExoClan, who was taking that evac. Unfortunately, it's going to be Slayer, who was that final player.
02:58:38 Und jetzt hast du gefragt, was ExoClan ist. Und sie sind in ein wenig precarisch bei den Overalls auch selbst. Vex versuchen zu kämpfen ihren Weg nach vorne. Du kannst sehen, viele Teams zu kontrollieren diese Height at Epicenter. Und Epicenter ist nicht lustig, wenn es so viele Teams vorhanden ist, wenn ihr so viele Teams vorhanden, wenn ihr versucht zu leben. Und Vex haben einen 1. Und das könnte eine terrible News für Vex, die sich in der letzten Position zu finden. Sie brauchen nur ein paar Punkte hier in den Overalls, aber wenn sie zu fallen sind, dann könnten sie ihre Regional-Final-Chance ist weg.
02:59:06 Hex-O-Klan hat sich Eliminatiert. Oh, Babylon's Spray war nicht gut genug. Und jetzt ist es alles auf Klemm. Er hat die Knot von der Sky. Kann er secure KP? Kann er secure Placements? Er hat die Shield Swap. Aber er ist blind-firing und hoping, dass vielleicht er kann. Kann er noch eine Shield Swap? Aber das ist nicht genug. Und Vex wird Fall.
Entscheidende Momente und verpasste Chancen im Kampf um das Regional-Finale
02:59:25
02:59:25 And that could be Vex's chances of regional finals disappearing right in front of their very eyes. They were in 18th position, arguably could finish in last position, which would only give them one point and put them on 50 points in the overalls. And there are teams that are chasing them that should be able to overtake them at 50 as well. So it's going to be a very nervy ending for Vex. And the teams like...
02:59:47 Stay healthy, like Players, like Outplayed, like Nine Lies, all have the opportunity now to take that position away from Vex in Regional Finals. Alliance are looking to take first place away from GG at the moment in this final game. You can see the ping coming in on the Kraber as well. I wonder if Alliance are going to try and play for that.
03:00:04 As they force their way in towards Zone elsewhere, Overlook is where we find our next piece of action taking place. Stay healthy, up on the silos, trying to hold out a team who's moving through that choke. It's gonna be FA Kids on the other side of this. So stay healthy, seventh position at the moment, 32 points. I said about them leapfrogging Vex, they certainly will do so if they can stay within this top ten. And I would say a top five finish would guarantee the regional finals, but they've just lost one.
03:00:33 So Dan just absolutely sent it on the Bloodhound ulti through to get that first knock. And now even though Stay Healthy still have that high advantage, they don't have the number advantage. And that means they can just three man swing, three man send it. And Janty is now left as the last alive on the Pathfinder. Doesn't hit the grapple that you want to in that situation and Stay Healthy. Uh-uh, not healthy anymore. They will fall as FA Kids off the back of that ulti.
03:00:59 Der Opener, created by Zedan, will take control of the back silos.
03:01:26 Amp is going to go down. Can they get the exchange of knocks? That's the question. Natsuki's trying desperately to do that. Looks like Zane may have turned this into a 2v2. So a 2v2 scenario is one that's a lot better sounding than a 3v2. Knockdowns to try and play around though. You can see they're a little bit split at the moment on their decision making. Natsuki's going to go down as well.
03:01:46 Und nicht der Tag der NIP hat, aber ein Team, die eine große Zeit haben, heute zu haben, ist ANC Outplayed. Sie waren in 22nd Position.
03:02:12 14 points away from their chance of trying to qualify for Regional Finals. And they forced themselves into the top six with those kills. And there is still a chance of Regional Finals for ANC outplayed after a very rollercoaster season, finishing first on their first day, but then last, second to last, third from last, but now a chance to push themselves once more into the top 20. Incredible performance from them. They've left it late, but at least you can get the job done. It's in their hands.
03:02:39 Allianz will be thinking the same thing, but a slightly different story. Can we go into regional finals with first spot? Can we take away first spot today in the lobby from GG? At the moment, they're just controlling this high ground. A couple of evacs are going down as well. You can see that Hackett's maybe trying to line up some shots on this final player. It's good damage. It's great damage. It's phenomenal damage, but it's not quite enough to get that knock. Instead, he's going to turn his attention to another Kramer that's falling from the sky.
03:03:05 Whoever wins out of Alliance and GG here, likelihood is, goes into Regional Finals in 1st place. I think even if Alliance finished 2nd in the overalls against GG, they would still take 1st. So it's looking more likely that it would be Alliance that go into Regional Finals as the number 1 team. It's Passion U8, they're currently in 7th. They have that Kraber that you were talking about, and they are absolutely blitzing whoever's inside. ANCL played been eliminated, so that changes things once again here. Passion U8, they're trying to push on this truck.
03:03:32 Strafi maybe looking for a no-scope, maybe looking for something magic with that Kraber, instead he's going to hit the Hitfire, Danish eliminated as Passenue will survive for now, but that frag is far too close for comfort, that Q is far too close for comfort, and Artico and Mad Strafi now trying to hold off the pusher of Alliance.
03:03:50 Und das wird nie sein, dass ihr in eine 2-3-2 gegen Allianz sein könnt, in der Form sie sich in heute befinden. Das sollte ein komfortablet sein. Even wenn es sehr wunderschön ist, Allianz wird in diesen kleinen RV, Allianz wird gut verletzt in so. Und es ist nur eine Art von Bindingen, Pushingen zusammen und Allianz wird auf Passion U.A. Aber Passion U.A. hat eine gute Menge Punkte heute, um sich zu trennen.
03:04:13 von der Top 8, als 3D Max also geht, und das ist 3D Max's chances, um die Region Finals zu kommen. Wir werden sehen, wenn die Final Stande kommen wird, aber nicht in den Top 10 kann wirklich gut werden. Hackes hat sich ein bisschen vorsichtig hier, als er findet sich ein paar andere Angles, oder andere Teams kann ein paar andere Angles nehmen, aber er wird wieder zurückgegangen. So Allianz, 10 Squads remaining in der Lobby, 3KP zu der Name, und Hackes hat den Big Stick gefunden.
03:04:46 Und wenn du jemanden hältst, es wird Hackers für sicher sein. Er hat eine fantastische Zeit heute, nicht nur mit dem wie er es called und wie er IGL'd, aber mit dem Positionen, er hat sich in als der Pathfinder, constantly taking angles, constantly pinching teams, zu machen es sehr schwierig für sie zu eitheren Rotate oder sogar playen die Final Circle. Und Allianz und GG, both looking to go out with a bang hier. Remember, da ist still ein Potenzial Bonus Point für GG, wenn sie able to find a 3rd victory in dieser letzten Match,
03:05:15 Pretty vital when it goes into the overall standings and their chances of being toward the top. But it looks like they should be guaranteed playoffs, so they are guaranteed playoffs at this point anyway. As for Alliance, it's not necessarily going to be the chances of being able to get there, but they certainly will want to be on top as these series standings come to a close. Alliance are going to trade the zipline, and oh my god, it's a free playoff!
03:05:39 We're not looking at Hackis, and Hackis doesn't make a mistake. He hits the 140. Alliance off the back of the zipline from the Pathfinder will make the opening happen themselves. However, Zone is now starting to close behind them. Blacklist International also taking damage. Alliance go into first place with those kills and with those placement points they pick up, but that will be the end of their final game.
Dramatisches Finale und die Entscheidung über die Qualifikation zum Regional-Finale
03:06:00
03:06:00 Das heißt, GG ist still alive, so Allianz geht um, GG wird die Chance zu leapfroger sie und werden sie hier in der Serie stehen. Aber ich denke, Allianz haben bereits genug gemacht, um die Top-Auf-Auf-Auf-Auf-Auf-Auf-Auf-Auf-Auf-Auf-Auf-Auf-Auf-Auf-Auf-Auf-Auf-Auf-Auf-Auf-Auf-Auf
03:06:25 Skydane wird ein wenig zu tun. GG werden sie den Weg aus der Quicksider-Zone zu tun. Sie sehen, 40 Sekunden bis zum Schluss wird. Es geht darum, die Möglichkeit zu finden, die 3rd Partei zu finden, die Platz du kannst. Die Forbidden haben die Eliminate. Das C-A-Q wird wirklich großartig sein. Das ist die Signal-To-Charge, als sie sehen, dass das...
03:06:45 Players are still going to be weak, and GG do not have to be asked twice. They know they have to play for these KP, play for this position, but the spray from Blast isn't brilliant. And now Lufka and Light have found themselves in a little bit of, I would say, uncomfortable position from what they imagined it would be.
03:06:59 Uncomfortable for some normies, but maybe for the Gaming Gladiators they can still pull something out here, as Lufka's still alive, DMS go down, and Gaming Gladiators are still doing what Gaming Gladiators do at their very best. When their back is against the wall, they still find a way to get through it. And now GG into the top six and still hold this northwest side. But when we go to the final circle, Full English, FA Kids, Nine Lies, and Blacklist International all are healthily inside this final circle.
03:07:27 Gigi versucht ein Angle, versucht ein Opportunity. Ich weiß, dass es ein Spieler auf der Tower ist, das ist warum man sieht die Smokes und man sieht die Qs in von der Fuse. Lufka hat so viel Informationen, und er hat eine Flank auf, Lufka hat ihn auch. Lufka hat ihn zu Cleanup-Blacklist International und will genau das machen. Gigi ist durch die Lobby in dieser Endgame. Das ist eine wirkliche Chance, für Teams wie Nine Lies.
03:07:49 Well, here we go then. Reset will come in on the northern side of the zone for Nine Lies.
03:08:19 Full English inside of the building. On top of them is FA Kids. It's a 3v3v3 in our endgame here. FA Kids, though, with the height, will be able to do a lot of damage onto Nine Lies. Full English inside of the building. Almost guaranteed second, you would imagine, from this position. But will they make a play to win this game? Do they think they have to win this game?
03:08:48 Ich glaube, sie haben sie gewonnen. Ich meine, sie vielleicht nicht wissen, wie viele Punkte sie werden, aber sie sind in die 14th Position auf der Moment, auf 26. Sie müssen sich in die 5-5 aufzunehmen, wenn sie eine Chance haben.
03:09:03 Sadly, they've got the full English who need to do exactly the same. They're in 9th position, but they need to go a little bit further if they want to get into the Regional Finals. This is going to be nail-biting moments for teams like Eternal, who aren't playing today, but were in one of those top 20 spots. Vex, who were in a top 20 spot, got eliminated earlier. This is going to be tough. This is going to be so, so close when we look at those overall standings.
03:09:32 Fletch, away at those shields, and it's going to take kind of up to Red Evo as well. So FA Kids with the high ground, with all Red Evos as well, dressed to impress in this endgame. But Full English, still with a chance. It's slim, but the play calls from them right now inside of this building could not have more pressure on them.
03:09:56 The Full English with a chance to maybe have a Hail Mary here to get to Regional Finals. Nine Lieser making their move though to try and get into some sort of position to stay alive and they have found a zone to play with here. There's a lot of fire and damage they're taking though and the FA Kids are rising and they are above everyone. But does this open an opportunity here for FA Kids to get these kills quickly enough that they can deal with Full English as they leave the building? It looks like they've got a couple of downs now.
03:10:22 There's only one to deal with. What do Full English do from here though? Zidane is the player to watch. He is the one up on height who will be watching the exit of Full English. A little off angle being taken here by Jay Savage as well. Last player is going to be in behind that knockdown and now the Full English needs to send it. They will be eliminated and FA Kids will claim the final champion banner of the day. The final champion banner of the regular season.
03:10:49 Und ich habe zu sagen, ich wollte zu den letzten Stand-Ins, weil das war ziemlich ein Endgame.
Analyse der Ergebnisse und Ausblick auf das Regional-Finale
03:10:55
03:10:55 A very exciting endgame and maybe a last chance for Full English to try and get a victory to see if they could get enough points to reach regional finals. I don't think they've quite done enough, especially with the likes of Stay Healthy players. ANC outplayed all outperforming them today and putting some real big points on the board. But for Vex, who were in 18th position, may have dropped out of regional finals spot. You've got Eternal, who were in 17th position, not playing today, may have dropped out of regional finals spot. It was always going to be the case going into today.
03:11:24 Yeah, it was an impressive day. We'll bring Rain Day back in as well to talk about it as we wait for those final results to come in. But Evan, I mean, when you're hoping for something, you know, and you're in one of those end games and you're in the final game of a day, it's like you just want to be the team who is saying, yes.
03:11:53 Und dann haben die RELIEF flog über dich in die finalen Moments, dass du genug hast.
03:11:58 The reverse side is pain, and it's a pain that is difficult. Anyone who's played competitively as well, I mean, I'm sure we all go back in moments where you just don't get back for maybe months now, especially if you were just a few placement points away, or maybe you underperformed just your own expectations as a team, as a trio, as an organization. There's always just a lot to look at and to reassess. And in our esport world as well, sometimes, you know,
03:12:28 Dann starts the conversation of roster changes. But the teams that do it, the teams that get that little moment and it goes their way, well, it's special. It's one of those things you compete for to have that special moment. And I think ultimately we may see a team or two have it here and join us in our regional finals. Obviously still a lot more to say in terms of who will win our regional finals and make it to Germany. But right now we have some teams who are feeling that disappointment for real, even just scrolling Twitter as well. I'm starting to see it.
03:12:58 Bis zum nächsten Mal.
03:13:06 Routing out a great game. It's enough, obviously, for Regional Finals. What I was thinking for them, the big story, is put yourself in a position to really make that top eight. So where you don't have to win Matchpoint to be able to do it. Nine Lies Esports and Full English, they have good games towards the end on World's Edge, but it's not enough. Gaming Gladiators, did they do enough? Certainly feels like they should have. And players also with a good split. Alliance, a ninth place in that game. But overall, everything they did today felt like they were just...
03:13:35 Midas, and it turned to gold. Onset, they'll be happy with how they finished.
03:13:40 Ja, ein sehr, sehr gut für sie. Elsewhere ist es nicht so gut für NIP. Ich habe gesagt es ein paar Mal, es ist ein Worry, zu sagen. Und jetzt wissen sie, dass der Region Finals ist, dass sie die Dice gewinnen und die Dice gewinnen können, ob sie für die Split-2-Dice gewinnen können. Elsewhere, PassionUA, in einer der Qualifikation Position, wenn es zu enden, für die Split-2-Dice gewinnen, haben sie nicht gewinnen können. So Region Finals wird es ein bisschen, ich würde sagen, nerve-jangling für sie.
03:14:09 Die Lobby, die Exo-Clan hatte ein bisschen eine DUD-GAME in der Ende auch. Aber das ist die große Sache, und ich werde das für Sie, denn die Serie ist hier.
03:14:18 They are here, they are ready. Who is going to our regional finals? Who is going to find a way? Ultimately, we see that as a result, Gaming Gladiators inch out first place, which means they will certainly look like they've got a chance to vie for Alliance. With the second place for Alliance, they might have just edged out and found a way to stay on top heading into regional finals. Huge from DMS, huge from players, but Dan, taking a look at this before we get to our overall in the league.
03:14:45 I mean, any surprises? I'm not sure. Vex, full English. I mean, it might not have been enough. I think that Vex...
03:14:54 Could be pushed out by several teams here. You've got Stay Healthy, you've got ANC Outplayed, and you've got players who were all outside of that top 20, all chasing that position of Vex. And Vex finishing in last would have only secured one point, so they would have been below that cutoff. So I wouldn't be surprised to see them out and not in regional finals. As for the Full English, I don't think they've quite done enough either. If maybe we hadn't seen the likes of players outplayed and the rest have a great match week, Full English might have been able to just squeak in, but I don't think that's going to be the case. We'll wait for confirmation.
03:15:23 von den Admins, aber es wird Allianz aufzunehmen. Sie werden die 1st-Place in den overallen Standings gehen in den Regional Finals.
03:15:45 In our EMEA Pro League. Gaming Gladiators right behind them, both securing their spots in playoffs. So you will see those two there. Regardless, huge congratulations for Gaming Gladiators and Alliance for jumping above that threshold. BaseClan, PassionUA, Trojan, Nadas Fincier, GoNext Esports, ExoClan. Currently the other teams that, if it ended today, would be making LAN. That means problems for FA Kids in Danish.
03:16:13 Und Marc, oh Marc, es gibt Probleme für einige unserer Teams zu machen. Dad, ich werde das zu Ihnen handeln, weil ANCL und ETHERNAL waren auf 51 Punkte. Das ist verrückt. Die ETHERNAL waren in der Top 20 auf 51. Ich dachte, sie würden sie nicht spielen. Es könnte ein Leipfrog-Moment sein, aber ETHERNAL wird das 51.
03:16:38 Das ist gut, für ETHERNAL und OUTPLAYED.
03:17:06 Wow, look at that. And one point it was that was the difference for Vex to be able to make it. These are those moments you look back on and what rotation, one bullet, one stop or delay that was a little bit too slow. And we'll be re-watching and thinking about that game probably a lot tonight.
03:17:27 And hopefully it's something that improves them in the future. Big shout out to all of our teams competing as well. And on the bottom half of these teams who won't be joining us in the regional finals, congratulations on a good split too. Obviously not where you want to end up, but obviously that means that there's a lot to improve and look forward to. And that's the thing, guys. This is a game, a competition, a pro league that just keeps evolving at the end of the day, Mark.
03:17:49 Ja, es sicherlich macht es. Und die Teams sind außerhalb der Top 20. Sie sind in den LCQ jetzt. So, sie haben sie zu fighten für den nächsten Spiel, für den nächsten Spiel, für den nächsten Spiel zu gehen. So, ein viel Arbeit für sie zu tun, und es ist sicherlich etwas für sie zu gehen. Aber wir haben gesagt, all Split long, über wie close Amir hat. Es hat es kamen zu finalen Games. Es hat es kamen zu finalen Circles. Und zu sehen, zwei Teams, tied auf den gleichen amount von Points, qualifizieren in 19th und 20th Positionen.
03:18:13 für die Region Finals, das wirklich alles für mich hat. Und ich denke, es setzt uns auf die Region Finals für die Region Finals. Und ich denke, es wird eine der wildest, die wir gesehen haben, in viel Zeit. All right, let's walk through die Final Circles, also. Ich will kind of start this one off with you, Dan, get the highlights going. Since you do so well at our Halftime, as we take a look back at the last three games that determine who's going to be joining us for our Region Finals.
03:18:34 Ja, das ist das, was du und Marc waren zu cover, und ein sehr lustiges Final-Circle als auch. Wenn man eine Art Elevation hat, wo jemand high-Ground hat, wird man immer fragen, wie es zu spielen wird. Und DMS sind in so eine gute Position, und die Caustic-Varrels ist nicht etwas, was man nicht erwartet, mit der Lack-Varrel in der Lobby. Wir waren nicht so viele...
03:18:53 like we used to in Amir, but it didn't necessarily help DMS in the early stages because they lost so many of their players and they weren't able to fight their way out of it. It was Gaming Gladiators who were able to put themselves in a position fighting from that low ground and really showing how well they fight together as a team and their chemistry was excellent throughout the day. They do come out on top as the overall winners from today as well, which I think is a statement in itself from the Gaming Gladiators. You want to be having that belief as a team that you can take down a squad like Alliance, that you
03:19:22 Sie können sie entdecken. Auch wenn Allianz werden die Wiener in die Region Finale gewinnen. Sie werden jetzt noch die Wiener hier für Gaming Gladiators gewinnen. Das ist natürlich wahr. Game 5 wird es sichern, und Gaming Gladiators wird anfangen. Das ist die Sache mit einem Team. Leit, Blast und Lufka, sie haben 10. Blast in den Split-1 Play-Offs in Los Angeles. Wir haben sie gesprochen, bevor sie gewonnen haben. Marc, sie haben ein knack.
03:19:49 für Finishing Season strong, Heading into Land.
03:19:52 Ja, eine Sache, ich liebe es auch immer, es ist, dass es sehr rare, dass ihr Spiel getrennt, außerhalb der zwei Team-Maten kann in eine Position zu helfen oder zu helfen. Sie spielen so gut zusammen, sie spielen so gut zusammen, sie spielen so gut zusammen und sie finden sehr, sehr gut, playable Spots in den Zonen, dass sie für ein paar Zeit spielen können, egal ob wie weit sie müssen. Wenn sie mit ihren Weg durch die Team kämpfen, sie können es effizienten. Wenn sie gut Pro, sie können sie gut spielen, sie können es effizienten. Aber das Spiel war nicht zu sein, sie hatten die letzten paar Momente als ein Duo, aber die großen Damage kamen.
03:20:21 Und es war die Spieler in der Ende des Enden, die geschlossen haben.
03:20:43 Oh, man, we wish we might have done it differently. FA Kids would ultimately take a great position up on the high ground and would put them in all the moments to swing. And they'll be there. They'll join us at our regional finals. They haven't secured anything close to a pretty much guaranteed eight, but this is what you can hope for, going into some momentum, winning a good game at the end, and obviously doing it against teams that are fighting for their lives.
03:21:04 Ja, es war ein bisschen zu viel zu tun für both Nine Lies und FullEnglish in diesem letzten Spiel. Jetzt sehen wir, was die Cut-Off war. Sie haben es für den letzten Spiel. Und Sie können nicht wirklich tun, dass. Sie müssen zu haben, wenn Sie sich in den Region Finals befinden. Aber es bedeutet, wir finden squads, die so talented Apex Teams sind, das nicht zu den Region Finals sind. Und dann haben wir auch noch andere Teams, die jetzt so weit entfernt von Qualifizien für Land, haben sie zu finden, in Region Finals zu finden.
03:21:33 To get to LAN, with only 8 spots on the cards here for EMEA, it is going to be so difficult and there's going to be so many disappointed teams and so many amazing teams that aren't going to be able to make LAN.
03:21:43 And that's what sets up such an interesting week next week. Also makes things a little scary for teams and maybe even that 14th position. We're talking maybe in IP that go, we've got to perform so big and we got to hope for people ahead of us to be worse than we are. And that is a scary thing to expect when all of it is on the line in our regional finals next week. But closing out match day number nine, we had to hand an EMEA MVP trophy out and it would be none other than Lufka who would take this one as our MVP.
03:22:13 von Gaming Gladiators. Wir haben gesagt, dass sie in den Spiel 1 gespielt haben. Wir haben mit Jamei gesprochen. Er hatte viel confidence in diesem Team. Und Blast hat ihn und Leifka und Leifka in eine Situation, wo 10th place wäre wie sie wäre. 20,000 für den Namen. Und dann wieder in den Spiel 2, Energizei, als immer. Ein Orr, weltweit, das unterstützt diese Leute, aber auch wenn man Leifka hat, vielleicht ein bisschen Redemption hier. Er hat sich in Position mit Ascend und Kashera vor, wo es gab.
03:22:42 zu sein, aber als das Team gespielt und Go-next, Went-next und Lufko-Win-Gaming-Gladiators ist, er hat sich gemacht, in jedem Moment, dass er sich involviert ist. Und look at das letzte Zone, als auch. Talking about Clutching-up, bei ihm selbst, wenn Blast geht und Light geht, also. Und dann Turnen-Around-Grabbing zwei mehr Kills, just zu gewinnen, die Ultimate-Viktorie für Gaming-Gladiators, in einem der größten Mächte, vielleicht den größten Mächte, wir haben noch gesehen. MVP.
03:23:11 He goes to Lufka this time around. 18 kills overall. He got, I think, at least five of them in that final rotation. It should put him down as kill leader overall in this lobby with 10 assists and 5,600 damage left. In fact, the only player who was a little less than that, a little more than that, excuse me, was Prestes. Big shout out to Prestes as well. 19 kills. Big day for them. And obviously, Mark, big day for Lufka, a player that we've seen in so many different iterations of ALGS lineups and still.
03:23:40 One of our top pros. Yeah, I think he just looks very comfortable in this lineup as well. I think when you find a set of players who their natural tendencies complement each other, then it feels like a lot of the hard work is done, right? Even when you have these meta shifts, even when people got to change legends, the compositions change, you have this natural understanding of each other's tendencies in fights and how you want to move around the map. I think it really does help you and you can see that from GG and the way that they fight together. So I think it's great for him to find himself in this lineup and he's...
03:24:08 He's performing in a way where we expect him to at this point. Dan, again, also, I mean, part of the history is finding lineups. These players who have done so well, sometimes it's just not the right fit, but then you get them on that right fit and it goes, okay, now this is exactly the potential we knew you had. You just weren't able to exercise in whatever compositions you guys were playing or whatever dynamics were going on personally with your other teammates.
03:24:30 Yeah, we've seen that a few times of players getting picked up that might not have had the opportunity to flourish on previous teams, but suddenly find those right teammates to make them look good and then just shine themselves and make their teammates look good. And I think that Lufka has been one of those players who just can elevate any team to a certain position and certainly performed excellently today.
03:24:49 And speaking of Lufka, we've got the man himself here to talk with us at the end of the game. Now, this is just a lovely photo. We felt we had to use it. I know we've got a different team representation now. This is from your split one playoff journey where you guys got tipped with Omit. But Lufka, congratulations on the MVP and the win today. Thank you.
03:25:12 Another thing, Lufka, congratulations on booking your ticket to Mannheim, Germany. Now this means two LANs in a row you and your squad have qualified for. You did 10th in L.A. Germany, obviously, it's a little bit closer to home, and it's also a chance for you to do even better. How do you feel going into this situation of regional finals and LAN about the dynamic that your team has and being able to grow as a roster that stayed together from split one all the way now to split two and split two playoffs?
03:25:40 Ich bin definitiv viel mehr überzeugt. Wir hatten viele Gespräche, viele Veränderungen und ich glaube, dass wir finden, was das beste für uns jetzt ist. Und wir zeigen es.
03:25:52 Lufka, ich gehe in. Ich gehe zuerst, auf die Performance heute. Ich möchte ein bisschen über die Confidence von deinem Team sprechen. Du hast gesagt, du bist mit ein bisschen mehr Confidence. Und es scheint, zu mir, wenn ich am Amir jetzt, ist es wie du eine der Namen wir sprechen, wenn wir sprechen über die Teams, die können auf Land und wirklich performen, kommen in den Grand Finals und causen Probleme für jemanden in den Lobby. Wo ist das Confidence?
03:26:16 I think it's mostly preparations that we are doing, screaming every day, trying not to miss out on any scream. And we have pretty good vibe.
03:26:36 Good vibes is definitely what are required for me. If I'm ever playing, I need good vibes, otherwise I can't play. So I appreciate hearing that. Lufka, talk me through the new meta that we're now seeing, the reintroduction of Seer arriving as well, and just kind of what you think about how the state of play is and how that might have benefited you as a team with the changes coming into Bloodhound.
03:26:56 Ich denke, das Spiel ist viel besser jetzt, weil Bloodhand natürlich nicht sieht durch den Schmuck. Es ist nicht nur Bloodhand spielt das Spiel. Jetzt müssen wir zusammenarbeiten, um die Kampf zu gewinnen. Vorher war es ein Kind-of-All-Bloodhand-Job. Und jetzt ist das Spiel wahrscheinlich am meisten Ballen, als es in meiner Meinung nach ist. Und ich liebe diese currenten Meta.
03:27:20 One thing, Lufka, I want to talk to you about here, because we don't often get to see a player's insight into this, is Gaming Gladiators picking you guys up, obviously, as great representation. I've met with a lot of the higher-ups at GG. Just give me your thoughts on what it's like to represent them. Is this just a great fit for you guys? And do you feel confident heading into playoffs, obviously, with the support that they're giving you? They are insane. They are helping a lot. They are supporting us, chilling for us every single day.
03:27:47 And I can be more thankful for them. Well, thankfulness indeed. Congratulations on your trip to Mannheim, Germany. You have just booked with that performance and also your success today in Match Day 9. We'll see you for the regional finals. See if you can keep impressing everybody out there. Thank you. See you.
03:28:10 Lufka, everybody. A man, maybe a fewer words, but doesn't really need to talk with his words here. We saw the gameplay talk for itself. 18 kills on the day. That is insane, Dan. And those are stats that we don't often see. Usually it ends around 17, 16. That's just a monster performance from an experienced vet.
03:28:27 Ja, und Gaming Gladysers war so close to securing their playoff spot bereits, aber zu tun es in diese Weise heute macht es sogar mehr confidence zu gehen in die Region Finals, zu versuchen, die Dominanz zu gewinnen und zu spielen mit den Big Dogs, wie Allianz, so dass, wenn sie zu Mannheim-Germany kommen, sie können sagen, wir sind eine Europäische Front-Foot, eine der Emiers Front-Foot hier, und wir können den Rest der Welt machen.
03:28:48 Honestly, if they play the way they have in Regionals, they probably can be a team that can get to finals, but it will just be about whether it's the same kind of collapse we've seen from EMEA teams once you get to that final lobby, or whether they can still find the same state of play that we've seen them have success with so far. But it sounds like they like the meta, they like the changes, and they seem quite confident. And they like the vibes. Just because he's moved to North America now, he can just start throwing shade at EMEA. I see this. I see it developing.
03:29:15 He's not going to let you take the EMEA slander. Yeah, Mark's watching. He's hearing everything you're saying. But Vibes, Vibes are strong with Lufka as well. Vibes should be strong because guess what? They qualified. Let's take a look at the qualified team so far from Mannheim, Germany as we head into our last match day coming up next week on the 14th. Falcons and SSG from North America. They booked their tickets. EMEA now having Alliance and Gaming Gladiators join them as well. Two of the top brands in the AMA.
03:29:44 We'll certainly see them in Germany. APAC North have their whole crew a finely listed, fine-tuned roster here. Northeption, Fnatic, we know how well they can do in Striders. Taking out our winners, reject Winity, or War Crazy Raccoon at that point, away from attending. They will not be defending their championship in Split 2. APAC South as well has got everybody there. Dreamfire, Legends Gaming, Teams, we've seen SWQ, congratulations.
03:30:13 Bis zum nächsten Mal.
03:30:25 The picture, it's starting to get a little bit clearer. Mannheim, it's just around the corner. And of course, so are Regional Finals. But in terms of EMEA before then, that is going to be it. We've got North America coming up soon. But Mark, your final thoughts as we close out Match Day 9 for EMEA and get set for Regional Finals. I think the story coming out of today is the rise of GG. I think they're just getting better and better and better. And to win two games on a Match Day is always a very impressive thing. And when you combine that with some...
03:30:54 really good placements overall, not just outside of those two top wins. I think it's very impressive and something for them to build on for us, maybe on the international level to keep our eyes on as well. So the rise of GG has been impressive. Alliance looked great, but I also want to say commiserations to those who don't make it to those regional finals and best of luck in the LCQ.
03:31:12 Dan, kind of always tough to focus on the positive stories without at least mentioning some who do not succeed. But there's still so much to build from here and also regional finals as well. That's not the end for these 20 qualified teams. Only eight get a chance to go to Mannheim. We're still going to wait to find out who that is. Yeah, I feel bad for Vex. I mean, they missed out by a point, but all they needed to do today was get like two or three points, like finishing the top 17. So they've only got themselves to blame and I'm sure they will be the one team that really...
03:31:40 Ich weiß nicht, dass sie sich nicht mehr überrascht haben. Ich denke, dass sie sich die meisten disappointed sind. Ich empathe da. Ich bin sehr sorry, dass sie geteilt werden. Aber in der Zeit, sie haben gelernt, wie brutal diese Games können, wie brutal diese Matchweeds können, und wie man kann man missen. Es ist was sie können lernen, wie sie können. Aber ich bin sehr froh, dass sie die Top 20-teams spielen. Und ich bin sehr froh, dass sie die Top 20-teams spielen können. Und ich bin sehr froh, dass sie die Top 20-teams spielen können. Und ich bin sehr froh, dass sie das mit 8-teams sind. Ich weiß nicht, wie wir es machen.
03:32:07 I don't know either. We will have to hope on the day we somehow figure it out. But as far as today and Amia, thank you guys so much. We'll see you for North America. But thanks for a great show here.
03:32:20 All right, heading up. It is North America Match Day 9 as we say goodbye to Dan and Mark giving us the stare down there. I always get some stares. It was Tiff, now it's Dan and Mark. You guys just stare me down. Okay, I got it. I don't know what I need to do, but it's going to change.
03:32:38 I promise. Coming up, North America Match Day 9. Still more shenanigans. We're just taking an hour break. We'll be back here essentially at 3 p.m. Pacific time for your viewing pleasure. And what does that mean? Well, it just means you're going to see some great teams obviously vie for their chance now to make that top 20. Will we see some disappointment like we saw in VEX? Will we see some elation and some qualification like we saw with GG and Alliance? I'm sure we'll see a little bit of both. But big names there to compete as well. For all of you watching at home, thank you for being a part of the...
03:33:08 We'll see you all in just a little bit
