Begrüßung und Einführung in die ALGS New Orleans Open Grand Finals

00:05:06

00:05:06 Welcome everyone to the ALGS New Orleans Open.

00:06:30 Klutch Revives, Calculated Rotate and Heart-Pounding Aggro. Only the fiercest remain. This is not just a Lobby. This is the ALGS New Orleans Open Grand Finals. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Championship Sunday.

00:07:27 It's time to welcome our stunning and magnificent ALGS New Orleans Open 3-Tier Trophy. The trophy will be presented by the awesome, graceful Vicky Kitty and Lace.

00:07:50 Der Trophy ist von drei Kolumnen, die, once assembled, diese fantastische Memento erforschen.

00:08:40 Situational Awareness, Split Second Decisions and Pinpoint Aim separate Champions from the Fallen. With only 20 teams left from the 140 plus that started here on Day 1, it's all to play for. Will we see Magpie compilations of frags from a top team? Or will an underdog team ride to the occasion and steal the show? Apex Family, it's time to introduce the 20 teams for the Grand Finals.

00:09:18 Es ist Zeit für den Greenen Stegel! Next, es ist Nein Lies E-Sport!

00:10:17 Vertus Pro!

00:10:48 Es ist VK Gaming! Next up, Rival Esports!

00:11:25 Next up is Team FURIA! Give it up for Team BARBOL! Next up is Shopify RID!

00:12:41 Falcons!

00:13:28 It's time, the drops are prepped, the teams are locked in, and the P2020s are fully loaded. And to kick things off, it's time to hand it back to the masterful Apex Sages on the desk as we get this one started for Championship Sunday. Reinhardt-Sama, thank you so much, my friend, the man who can do it all with the microphone here as we get the stage set for Championship Sunday. There's not a better Sunday in all of esports.

00:13:55 I'm so excited to be here, guys. This is one of those moments where you kind of just got to soak it up, take it in. The crowd has been alive and well. We've seen players, you know, they've missed a few steps. They've gotten like so excited to get to their booths that sometimes they didn't even wait for their queues to walk in. The fans have been, the NRG was out of there before we even said anything. But, you know, that's kind of the fun.

00:14:15 von was das Championship bringt. Es gibt NERV und so viel mehr zu spielen. Mein Name ist Randy Guys. Let's introduce you to the panel who's going to be joining us for Sunday. Also, we'll see some new faces in here as well. We've got Glitter Explosion, we've got Jamerson, we've got Dia. Guys, Lauren, I always kind of lean this question to you. I mean, there is just something special about Sundays in Apex Legends. I'm certain that this is going to be no different once it's all said and done. 100%. And the energy starts hours before we even get...

00:14:44 Ich glaube, es ist ein paar Teams, die Energie ist einfach besser. Ich meine, es ist eine solche Dinge, wir sehen uns, Jamersen, wenn wir die Teams in dieser Lobby sehen,

00:15:06 Ja, wir starten die Woche mit über 140 Teams. Und dann, über drei Tage, wir haben es in den letzten 20. Aber all diese Namen sind so familiar, für Matchpoint Finals, across all die Regionen. Die einzige, ich würde sagen, ist, dass wir haben...

00:15:32 von EMEA. Ja. Of course, NA, excuse me, the Americas region showing up big with 100 Thieves and, excuse me, and with all of our other squads, but I love the fact that we're getting so much Apex South representation this time around. And the other thing too, Dia, is just as much about all the teams that we didn't expect to be here.

00:15:54 Twerkaholics, maybe the biggest name coming in from the Challenger Circuit, not in Pro League, but yet making a Finals Lobby. Those stories have taken over the Open as well. And it's been really nice to see those, especially because it's the first time with the ALGS Open that we're getting to experience stories like this on LAN. Twerkaholics, like you said, really jumping out ahead of the crowd. I'd throw Kat in here as well as being a big surprise team for me, especially with how dominantly they were able to go through the lobbies and actually make it to Championship Sunday. You guys all brought up

00:16:24 Great points here, but let's see what they're all playing for as well. Because when we get to Sunday, it doesn't just mean that you have a chance to hoist that trophy, or at least all three of you will be able to hoist a separate part of that trophy. Beautiful design, by the way. Respawn and Apex Legends for that. But look at the money at the top. Lauren, $300,000 to our winner. Life-changing money.

00:16:47 Out of this million dollar prize pool. Absolutely. You might think, you know, just because it's an air quote open, there might be something a little bit less here at the prize pool. Absolutely not. Million dollars on the line for every single Apex Legends land, okay? And $300,000, we watch how not only does the money change the lives of these players, but it's that recognition too. The status that comes along with it. Like you're talking about the trophy. Like it is all of the glory wrapped up in one that everyone is really striving for.

00:17:14 And the beautiful thing is when you say open, you look at that cash, I'm saying open tap, okay? Yeah, right. Come on, man. Whoever wins this, I need to know where you're eating later because I'm getting involved. All right. You know, guys, it's always fun. Let's talk about these teams. I would say which one of you wants to start, but because I'm the host.

Teamvorstellungen und Favoritenanalyse

00:17:29

00:17:29 I get to start. I'm just going to start talking about teams that I care about. The first one, it's NRG. I feel like this team didn't get their proper, you know, highlight in the crowd, but you could hear them murmuring, getting excited even when the name is mentioned. This squad to me is special because, again, I think this is a team of amazing players, yet also in many ways have not fit in with squads prior, even to the coach.

00:17:52 Hatsik, wo er versucht, ein neues Haus zu finden. Und du kannst jetzt sehen, wo er jetzt gefunden hat. Gildersens war in der gleichen Reise, versucht, einen neuen Ort zu arbeiten. Und dann sieht man Yanya, der sich die RISK der Leidenschaft des Liquid Alienware zu finden, um eine neue Geschichte geschrieben zu haben. Das war, wir sind so close, wir haben große Spiele, aber wir können nicht weitergehen. Das ist jetzt die Team, die sich jetzt zusammenfassend hat. Und für mich, die größte Sache ist Timmy. Ich denke, es ist seine Leidenschaft und seine Abilität.

00:18:19 Whether it's Jan Jan Gildersen giving him more leeway to just trust himself and actually make decisions. And the consistency of how they're following up those decisions feels like there's nobody saying, hey, I want to do this instead. Maybe we should think about that. They're trusting each other. And they're three of the most mechanically gifted players that exist in our league. I mean, even just looking at the pop-offs there, Timmy with his Red Bull sleeve constantly, the hugs, the excitement. You can see why NRG is an exciting team to mention.

00:18:48 You know, there's also another team in here that got a big standing ovation when they were walking through and that's of course 100 Thieves. I mean, this is a team that many people think out of the four teams here that kind of maybe lead the way in terms of championship contenders.

00:19:02 Das ist die beste I've felt seit London. Das ist ein guter sign, weil sie das Trophäe haben. Hal kam aus dem Heavens und hat eine der besten Pläne gemacht. Could das auch ein Iteration für Verholtz sein, für Verholtz zu kommen? Jen Burton kämpft sein eigenes Battle, sehr ähnlich zu Timmy und dem, dass Falcons nicht dass sie nicht wollen, aber vielleicht fühlt sie besser ohne mich.

00:19:30 I get a chance to prove that. And the ultimate person to prove I am hopefully better without those who thought they were better without me is Phony. Because he has been in this journey of winning a split championship.

00:19:43 und dann geteinkt von einem Team. Wie soll man das tun? Es ist so viel von dieser Geschichte, das ist für diese Leute, und so viel Möglichkeit zu erzählen, oder zumindest zu verwenden. Es ist wie ein Schreibtisch geöffnet wird, und bevor es Final Produktion gibt, es verändert die letzten paar Pages zu etwas, und das ist das, was ich glaube, diese Leute haben die Möglichkeit zu machen. Nicht nur das, sie haben die größten Spiele gesehen, über 109 Punkte in ein paar der Gruppe Stages, nicht so viele von diesen Teams haben gespielt.

00:20:09 Das ist ein spannenderer. Ich weiß nicht, ob es will, dass sie die Champions haben, aber sie ist sicherlich eine der Team.

00:20:20 Das ist ein Thema. Ich will einen von euch sprechen in einem Moment. Aber du hast mir eine große Augenkontakt. Ich bin sehr listened to. Der andere Person und die andere Team I really need to focus on hier ist ein Story I've been tracking since I first started Apex Legends in Poland. Das ist Twisted Minds. Ich mentioned Hotsik, trying to find his own way after getting a new Team. Das ist die Team he landed on. Aber das ist der Team Albreleli der Person, der ich denke, hat die größte Statement in dieses Open gemacht.

00:20:48 This greatness, this start that you wanted, lifting that first Poland Trophy in Krakow, and now going through this journey of almost finding himself as a player again, has ultimately ended up with this roster right here. Krook and Enemy formerly playing with each other, Krook and Alb having some history as well, and putting them together, it has somehow made magic happen. When you talk about, I see this team in top fives all the time, this is what we're saying. Look at those Winter Finals. Second, second, third.

00:21:16 3rd. They are in Top 5's 4 out of 6 of these games. And how can you not think a team is going to be successful when they keep putting themselves in situations to make one play and win? Ultimately, in Matchpoint, that's what you have to do. And so I think this could be the Twisted Mind story today. In fact, that's kind of where I'm going with my pick. I think it would be a little bit of a Cinderella story.

00:21:37 I'm betting on a little magic this Sunday. And of course, last but not least for me, we got a lot of teams in North America, but maybe the one that has flown the highest or at least had the highest expectations. Wow, thanks Zero. Thanks Al for not being in the chairs. What are we doing here? This is the finals. They're not even in their chairs. Maybe they're going to the bathroom getting ready, but at the end of the day, let's focus on Waltzy then. And I think the idea around Waltzy being a part of this lineup as Al and Zero come back is that this is that third that...

00:22:03 ...replaced Jin Burton, ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...

00:22:29 But what are they going to do in terms of legacy? This was supposed to be the super team, and they have been really great at not getting a championship yet. And unfortunately, that could end up being their legacy if they don't win today. The stakes are pretty high for the Falcons, so ultimately, I think these are some of the teams you've got to watch in North America.

00:22:47 I love it. And what I did notice, though, is that there was a theme there with a lot of the squads that you were picking, Rain, and a lot of them are those heavy hitters out of Americas, the teams that, honestly, anybody could make a very strong argument for taking this whole thing home at the end. I want to take it in a little bit of an opposite direction, same region, but I want to look at the rising stars coming out of here, because...

00:23:09 We've been talking about them all weekend long. I'm going to go with Twerkaholics and Nine Life, starting with Twerkaholics. Everyone's been talking about them. Their performances are absolutely unmatched. We've got a tweet here from Jake Lucky. We've got a free agent Apex team called Twerkaholics competing for a million dollar ALGS title tomorrow. This is why I love esports. A nice reminder that they are in fact a free agent team. So if there are orgs paying attention, make sure you're keeping your eyes on this squad.

00:23:38 Ich meine, wir haben sie über den All-Weekend, speziell wegen der Playstyle. Jamersen hat ein ganzes Hot-Take über das. Es ist die type von Play, die wir wollten hier sehen, hier in der Open. Diese Aggression, diese Kills, haben sie durch den Punkt, dass sie hier heute sind. Es war ein entire Winner's Bracket run für Twerkaholics. Ich meine, ist das was wir erwartet? Nein. Aber es ist phänomenal. Die Storylines sind Ridingen selbst, und es ist was wir hoffen, Talent-Wise, aus der Open. Wir werden diese Rising Stars starten.

00:24:07 Das bedeutet, dass sie die Winner's Racket-Racket haben.

00:24:21 Sie spielen weniger Series, aber sie sind da mit den Falken, die noch mehr zu gehen. Das ist richtig. So, Twerkaholik ist jetzt so ein X-Faktor, ein randomes, das ich denke, hat wirklich beeindruckt und beeindruckt, auch unsere Stable-Squads, weil sie nicht wissen, wie sie es auf dem Weg gemacht haben. Und sie haben alle Sekunden für was sie gebracht haben. Aber ich habe gesagt, Rising Stars aus Amerika gesagt, dass es nicht nur Twerkaholik ist, weil ich auch möchte über 9 Lies sagen.

00:24:51 Another team that has...

00:24:53 Kind of been a really nice surprise to follow throughout the tournament. They ended up dropping into that elimination bracket after winner's round three. So they still made it pretty far in the competition. And when that drop down did happen, it was literally by one point. And we see this happen all the times in ALGS competitions. That one point is always such a curse. But that just means that they were still in the contention for that middle ground bubble when it came to that winner's round three. They now are one of those teams that are amongst the most wins when it comes to Broken Moon.

00:25:22 und Stormpoint. Und wenn wir über Individuals sprechen, eine andere Person wir sehen auf der KILL-Leaderboard ist Cersei, sogar höher als wo Floating war, in der Individual-Stats. 5th overall in KILLs für dieses Event. Ich meine, sie sind ein Team, die wir einfach nur hier haben, wo sie wollen. Und ich fühle mich...

00:25:40 We can't be underestimating them because we know what they can do. I think that's the theme, too. There's a lot of teams that you expect coming into this. We did a line of a bunch of great fans and attendees coming and talking with us, and they said...

00:25:53 A lot of the same teams that they expected to win. But there's some teams in certain regions that don't have as many eyes on them, Jamerson. They need to be highlighted because they're just as big of threats, having made it all the way to Sunday. Yeah, I mean, when it comes to these bigger lands, unfortunately, you know, we always have so many teams. It's hard to highlight any specific one, right? This time around, our job's even that much harder. 140 plus teams, and now we whittled down to 20. But these are teams that we do have to talk about coming out from the APAC South region. APAC South has already produced so much talent.

00:26:22 And it continues to produce, I would say, championship-caliber teams that are just right there on the cusp of making it over the edge and securing a spot in the top echelon. And one team I want to talk about is Green Stego. We've been seeing the Green Stego stocks on the rise, and by no surprise whatsoever, because of how consistent they are, whether they go by MKers, whether they go by Ironblood or Ta Myung-Kung, throughout the last year, they have been showing up to every single...

00:26:51 Das war's für heute. Das war's für heute. Das war's für heute.

00:27:13 Teams try different kinds of playstyles. We saw that they were in that winner's bracket with, of course, having to deal with Twerkaholics, consistently running into them. But while other teams fell to the wayside, they were able to deal with that adversity and play their own game afterwards. So they're honestly shaping up to be a stronger and stronger team every single time we see them. But on the other side of the tape, while one of our Apex South teams did extremely well of adjusting to newer playstyles.

00:27:43 Again, by Twerkaholics, really coming in aggressive in this lobby. On the other side of the tape, we have to talk about VK Gaming, another team that has been extremely consistent across our lands for the last year, right? Whether it was at Split 2 in Germany, where they finished off 8th, or at Champs, where they finished 9th. This was a team that was always kind of silently successful that we didn't talk about until the final day. We were like, huh, VK Gaming's in the top 9, top 5, wherever they are in the course of the tournament, because they are extremely good at...

00:28:12 Ja. Ja. Ja. Ja.

00:28:41 Wir sehen uns beim nächsten Mal wieder. Wir sehen uns beim nächsten Mal wieder.

00:29:10 Ja, ich war einfach über das, Jamerson. Ich war einfach über APEC-South und Glitter. Du war auch über die Unterdog teams.

Underdog-Teams und regionale Besonderheiten

00:29:39

00:29:39 from North America because APAC North has given us two underdog teams, but in very different ways. Normally, when we get to Championship Sunday, you'd be hearing me talk about Riddle. You'd be hearing me talk about Fnatic. Neither of those teams are here. Instead, we've got two teams. The first one, GHS Boom, coming out of APAC North. This is a really exciting team, much like the other APAC North representative that I'll get to talk about in a little while because they've never been to LAN before and in their own region are coming out.

00:30:09 Das war die Pro-League sehr gut.

00:30:23 Just leading into yesterday, I learned that a big part of that was in trying to take their zone style that was working very well and turn it into something a little bit more aggressive that could yield them points in the early rounds. But the really important thing for GHS is going to be taking this aggression that they've now learned to harness and pull it back again because we just...

00:30:44 Sie haben eine sehr hohe-caliber Lobby. Ich meine, Championship Sunday ist als schwer als es wird. So mit GHS-BOOM, sie wissen, wie sie zu spielen. Sie wissen, wie sie durch die Mid-Game spielen können. Die Frage ist, wie sie das Team balanceen, denn es ist ein constantes Gehirn für sie, durch die gesamte ALGS Open. Jetzt die andere APAC-North-Team.

00:31:03 Das ist sicherlich, weil es nur zwei von uns ist, Babbo. Babbo! Ich weiß, dass wir sehr excited werden von Babbo hören, weil... Ich sage Babbo, ich sage. Das ist ein A. Ja, das ist ein A.

00:31:20 Das Team ist nicht der wichtigste Team. Babo, in contrast zu GHS Boom, hat die Zone-Style gearbeitet für sie in den Challenger-Challenger-Circuit. Und hat das in eine fantastische Performance in den ALGS Open gemacht. Der Zone-Style hat nicht wirklich verändert. Sie haben nicht die Aggression-Style geändert. Und sie hat es in den Winters' Bracket gemacht. Sie sind ein quietes Team. Sie haben nicht vieles Geräusch gemacht.

00:31:47 Babo hat mich sehr beeindruckt, dass sie, während sie unter dem Radar geführt haben, sie durch die Winner's Run geschafft haben, und jetzt sind sie hier in ein Lobby, wo Zone Play und gut Zone Play sind die meisten. Es ist ein Team, die wir nie gesehen haben. Wir haben nie gesehen, dass sie aus der Challenger-Circuit gesehen haben, aber sie haben eine Finals für die erste Zeit geführt. Das ist sehr beeindruckend, Brandein. Es ist wirklich beeindruckend, und diese Teams, die du schon erwähnt hast, die du schon erwähnt hast.

00:32:11 The only thing that kind of went in their way was a team called Twerkaholics who would end up destroying any idea of zone play whatsoever when they showed up. And so all these plans went haywire. They're in this lobby as well. So that's just adding to the chaos of what's about to play. But speaking of two representatives, keeping track of APAC North is pretty easy. Unfortunately for a big region, ALGS, usually keeping track of EMEA is pretty easy too.

00:32:36 Ja, wir sprechen über das, okay? Ja. Wir sprechen über die zwei EMEA-Teams, die jetzt in der Matchpoint-Finals haben. Und ich möchte, dass ich ein Tweet hier von Hackus habe, weil er erzählt, dass nur zwei EMEA-Teams in den Finals dieses Openland haben, das ist verrückt, weil von der besten Performance von all den Regionen in Japan...

00:32:58 Das ist jetzt die Worste. Das ist definitiv ein Turnier auf die Tide, zu sagen. Es ist definitiv ein Fortschritt, aber Hackes hat er noch einen ALGS-Trofe. Und er denkt, es ist jetzt die Zeit, um einen zu bekommen. Ich liebe es, dass wir noch ein Allianz bekommen haben. Die confidence aus dem Team ist Allianz.

00:33:20 Und sie haben einen wirklich starken Winters Bracket gewonnen. Aber wir waren nicht sehen, und wir sahen das an Day 1, als wir in der Early Group Stage waren, wir waren sehen, diese insane High-Kill-Performanzer aus der Allianz. Sie waren in, vor allem Slayen-Out, nachdem sie einfach zu den nächsten Tag, mit der Competition. Als es sich aufgerichtet wurde, sie ein bisschen zu haben, wenn es um das Aggression war, was wir sehen, wie du gesagt hast, die Twerkaholics in den Lobbys.

00:33:47 Wir sind jetzt in Matchpoint, und wir haben jetzt alle vier von den Mappen in Matchpoint. Sie sind immer sehr stark auf den Klassiken. Sie sind immer sehr stark auf den Klassiken, mit den neuen Egeist-Trick und Broken Moon. Wir sehen uns, ob sie sich um ihre Spiels in den Mappen zu machen, oder wirklich um sie in den Mappen zu machen.

00:34:12 So, I mean, but a squad like this, like you said, they've already got a win under their belts when it comes to a trophy. It's not an ALGS one, and you know they're going to be fighting for it, especially if they can get into a groove where you have effect slaying out. But you also mentioned them. We're talking about rising stars, and it's crazy the dichotomy that we got out of EMEA for these two teams, because you get the established squad, the alliance, and then you get Kat.

00:34:41 Für die andere Team, die wir jetzt gesehen haben, die Last Squaw walking in, auf unsere Team Walkouts. Das ist ein cooles Story für mich, weil das ist ein relativ schnelles Roster. Taxington, Adam und Kalamitus. Und ich möchte sie ein bisschen über sie ein bisschen hier, weil wenn es nur zwei Teams gibt, das muss man sagen. Das ist richtig. So, jetzt, sie waren eine der Teams, wir haben sie letztendlich gesehen. Sie kamen von Elim Finals, und sie hatten...

00:35:06 Sie waren das 10th-Place-Squad und sie waren ein Punkt über Team Orchid. Das ist wie close unsere Elimination Finals waren.

00:35:15 They are one of those teams that's managed to have their best map. BE District, a newer squad, better on the newer maps. Their worst one is World's Edge. And we talked about this at the very beginning of the Pro League split. When we were introducing these new maps, are the less established squads going to really prioritize these newer maps and start to become the experts on those, knowing that we have teams with years and years of experience in the competition that already have Storm Point and World's Edge nailed down. It seems like that's what is working.

00:35:43 Zephyr hat gesagt, dass sie jetzt hier sind. Wow.

00:35:53 I mean, we have set the stage more than this is a stage, because this is a relaxed stage right here. We have set a whole second stage for you guys to understand the stakes here and the teams around. Thank you, everybody, for all that amazing analysis. And also for you guys, now you're prepped, ready to go. Who do you think is going to take this? If you're in the crowd, let us know. If you are at Twitch chat or watching on YouTube chat, let us know as well, because we obviously come to play with our ideas. So far, our talent predictions have been pretty one-sided, I will say.

00:36:22 Das war's. Das war's.

00:36:33 I don't know. I think we're going to show you what they look like in a second, but I know you guys have all got your ideas on who you're picking. I mean, let's go down the line. I mean, Lauren, who do you have today? I went with NRG, and I know some people in the crowd are definitely going to be on board with that. Oh, you went, okay. I did. I love it. I went Twisted Minds. Yeah. I think it's going to be interesting. I mean, NRG, I think that's 100 Thieves, guys. I get Dia. I see you going for that. A lot of people going for 100 Thieves. They were up there. Jamerson, what did you grab? Yeah, I ended up going for, well, after my rants last night.

00:37:02 Workaholic. Workaholic. Seriously, wow, that would be amazing if that team could win LAN. Honestly, yeah. Think about that game-change, life-changing situation that would happen. For any team to come in from CC to make it this far, make it through the winner's bracket as well, I just kind of want to have faith in that one. And especially because their playstyle has been so much fun, being able to see them run through teams like NRG and Fury at times in the winner's bracket is absolutely absurd. So how can you not cheer for that? Yeah, I mean, look at the representation too. Green Stego.

00:37:31 Genome mit Apex South, Graceful mit Alliance, mit EMEA. Du hast Twisted Minds mit Ben, als auch? Wow, er gibt's. Ich glaube, er gibt's, sozusagen. Er hat 2nd place. Und dann Falcons von Competitive Apex. Du hast gut gemacht, mit uns. Du hast fast alle Talent-Member, außer mir. So, will das be the day, wenn Falcons... Wir sehen, guys. Es wird gut sein. Also, wenn du aufhörst, dann kannst du Twitch-Drops alle 30 Minuten.

00:38:00 The ALGS Open has been...

00:38:28 A unique format that has put us into a position to have history be made. There are teams that aren't even in Pro League playing for their share of a million dollars right now. And there are teams that have created the almost narrative of Apex Legends Esports for years, having a chance to prove whether they're going to continue creating that narrative or maybe if their time is up. All of that on the line here on Championship Sunday. And it's time to get it going. So there's none other than two of my favorite guys.

00:38:57 and favorite casters to kick off the action and get the energy hype in the building. Let me hear a crowd for your two go-to guys. It's Onset and Gasket.

Spielbeginn und Analyse der ersten Matchpoint-Runde

00:39:07

00:39:07 Too kind, thank you very much New Orleans, we're gonna need that energy as these games start to drip by, but what an occasion this is, we all know how special a Sunday feels here, and this one in New Orleans, even when we arrived at the venue, queues around the building, everybody's cheering, everyone's smiling, and they haven't even got inside yet, but now we're here, Match Point Finals has arrived down. And the best part, we have LAN Champions on the stage, 10 of them to be precise, and then we also have about half the lobby who've never really got to this position before, may have never got to this position before.

00:39:37 Das war nicht für den ALGS Open.

00:40:06 Und das ist sehr interessant, wenn man die E-District und Broken Moon geteilt. Das ist sehr interessant, wenn man die 7-8 gespielt hat. Das ist so interessant, weil wir vier Matchpoint-Finals haben. Das heißt, wenn man in der Top 10 in der Top 10 hat, dann ist es ein guter Punkt.

00:40:35 So many amazing stories, so many players who are looking just to end those stories on a high today, but as you can see, every single team and player is ready to get the action underway here.

00:41:05 Broken Moon is where we start it all.

00:41:25 So if they're dropping something like that, they'll certainly put themselves close to Matchpoint already. Well, one team who would have rested very well last night after the insane elimination bracket run that they went on is Team Falcons. Wolsey, Zero and Hal, of course, dropping down very, very early by their own standards. But they made the miracle run. They are here in our Matchpoint Finals and they will be a threat when it comes to who picks that championship up.

00:41:49 Es ist worth noting that Falcons have actually had a lot of success on Broken Moon as well. There was questions, would Stormpoint be where all of their points were coming from? But no, they said actually Broken Moon, we're gonna find success by just sheer amount of kills and aggression. But this is where we're gonna be heading up towards the core. And we've had a couple of core finishes already this tournament. It gets very busy up here on the north. Certainly does. What a zone that is for Twisted Minds. And it's a good zone that they managed to almost convert yesterday as well when we did see a very similar zone. And speaking to a lot of people who were...

00:42:18 So, Envy and Twisted Minds, two of the favorites maybe already purely based off a priority position.

00:42:45 Als wir in mit 9Lies, die eigentlich, du hörst das DAS zu sprechen. Broken Moon hat auch sehr geehrt. Sie haben auch zwei Wichtigte. Und vielleicht sind sie für eine andere. Es ist eine große Herausforderung. Wo ist die Twerkaholics? Und Vayne ist auf sein. Und die Twerkaholics haben zwei. Vayne ist zu haben. Und wenn Sie heute fragen, wie die Twerkaholics werden in den Matchpoint Finals spielen, dann wird es genau das gleiche wie sie hier haben.

00:43:12 Und Brokermoon ist wichtig für Twerkaholics, weil sie sind unglaublich auf E-District, unglaublich auf World's Edge, aber noch ein bisschen auf Brokermoon ist. Und jetzt Vayne, leider, wird es zu sein, als 9Li ist die erste Team zu beeliminatet in Match 1. Und du hast es, Twerkaholics, die weitergegangen sind, wie sie vorhin hatten. Twerkaholics, die die Hände, die Hände, die Hände, die Overnight, die sind noch gut, als wir aufbauen, mit Alkazia. Das ist jetzt außerhalb der Zone, an der Moment.

00:43:42 Looking to move their way and they do have ring console information on where they need to move to and again you heard everybody on the desk talking about how impressive that they have been. Strafing Flame obviously leading the line as the IGL for this team. Alcatia trapped inside of this building at the moment and we're seeing that also a third party potentially arriving here. VP, have a little look. Yeah, very dangerous area for Alcatia because this is one of the prime rotating positions as you go through quarantine zone, as you try and skirt around not to get caught in the typical choke on the north.

00:44:11 Als wir mit NRG checken, ein bisschen Feuer nehmen, nur White Armour. Ja, es gibt fünf oder sechs Teams in und auf der westen Seite, wo das Zone ist. Und das ist das, was wir sehen, dass es so schockablockt, mit allen zu versuchen, ein paar von diesen Chokes. Fury wird es versuchen, die Void Nexus zu nutzen.

00:44:30 Geht Keyon rezzing, Noct as well on the altar. They will be able to do so. So their first attempt at a rotation doesn't work too well. It was actually Kat who hold them down in quarantine zone. So they've still got some traveling to do here before they get to where that zone is going to be pulling. Speaking of Kat.

00:44:46 Katalist ist der Mose-Pick-Legend-Alongside-Newcastle. So depending on who wins this game, it's gonna be either Katalist or Newcastle banned for Match 2, which again, we haven't really spoken about it, but Legend bans in a Match Point Finals is not something we've ever seen before. If we get to Match 9, Match 10, Match 11, think of how many Legends will be gone at that time. Makes it even more interesting that we're switching maps every single map as well. Every single game we are switching maps. That makes the compositions even more difficult to judge.

00:45:14 Gonna be a lot of fun to watch this match point finals today As we jump on board with fury who did get that reset that we saw a few moments ago and now try and continue their path here To quarantine zone looks like they might be trying to hit a survey beacon is now we have some action going down It's gonna be dexter from green stego who gets the knock on the guild green stego have the advantage at the moment and they're gonna push to get aggressive, but young you was waiting

00:45:41 Eliminated Green Stego will be still with two on their feet. Should be able to get the reset here, but no, maybe not. Looks like there's another team who are trying to move in here. It's Alcazia, who we saw a little bit further away from this position a few moments ago, but now they're trying desperately to see if they can capitalize on the opportunity to take down these Green Stego players. They find one!

00:46:01 Strafing Flame with some fantastic shots coming out from the Nemesis. Will Greenstego rue the day that they pushed onto NRG? Because now it's just opened up the chance for someone else to come in and clean them up. And it's got to be Alcadzia. Yes, they're still alive for now. But for how long is the real question? Alcadzia with two. And managed to get the finish onto one. Dexter.

00:46:22 Trying to find a route away. You can see that they know exactly where he is. They're trying to chase it down. We'll keep on our kill feed to see if it will be the end of their game. But elsewhere you can see Babo. What an incredible story it is to see these gentlemen in our finals lobby. Green Steak have been eliminated. Dexter wasn't able to survive. So we're now down to 17 in a few seconds time. Even though Pinky is doing everything he can to survive a few seconds longer.

00:46:46 This could be the end of Babo 2. It's just so compact, so dense here with all the teams that have found themselves up towards Core. If you lose a player or two, it's going to be very difficult to escape and rat out and even find a single placement point. You can see Zainu's actually trying to find an angle here from Shopify Rebellion and will spot out Pinky. And Shopify Rebellion just saying, hey, this could be one extra point that could get us closer towards that match point threshold. It could be one extra point, but they're obviously so nervous about giving away their position in Core as well. Don't want to overextend too much. Finally!

00:47:14 Es wird Koi-Fuhr mit der Scout, die die Knochen und die Knochen und die Knochen. Und Bubba wird also beeliminatet. So vier Teams aus der Lobby bereits. Und all diese Chokes, die diese Teams haben, haben wir durch. Sie können sehen, warum diese Action ist relativ schnell am Start. Hier auf Sturm, auf Broken Moon, excuse mich. Sorry, Force of Habit von mir.

00:47:31 I mean Broken Moon is just one of those maps that rewards sheer aggression you can't really afford to slow it down too often otherwise you will be punished but at the same time you have to be always prepared for that third party just as we saw earlier from NRG one of our heavy hitters eliminated in this first match already and again it was just a couple of those whiffed hip fire shots from the G7 scout it's never really fun when you have to whip that scout out as backup well keep my eyes on the twerk Alex because it's always fun to do you can see over at Dry Gulch on the left hand side of your screen

00:48:00 Alcadzia haben wir ein bisschen von KP in der Battle, die wir ein bisschen früher gesehen haben, gegen Green Stego. Sie müssen die Twerkholics haben, weil die Twerkholics werden in die Position beherrschen. Looking at die Zone, eine gute Position hier für Envy. Sie sehen, sie sind sehr isoliert, von viel von den Traffik, die durch die Schökes auf den Souten sind. So Envy ist es für ein guter Spiel, hier. Und sie waren in Spaceport, sie haben sie sofort geändert. Ich habe es gesagt, es ist, wie gesund sind sie?

00:48:28 How much loot do they have? What weapons have they got? Have they got any ammo to work with? Do they have any shields to work with? These are all the things that are hard to come by if you are the first to move to Zone. And of course, where is that Zone going to shift? Because it goes towards Core, Envy might struggle. Now Fury, they've lost Noct, but Matt Addison, Kion, still back to back, looking to see whether they can get him back up with the Void Nexus. Yeah, we'll be able to. There's no one else really near Fury here. They're just trying to find a way towards Zone. Maybe...

00:48:52 Noct was looking to move forward and get another Void Nexus down a little bit closer to Zone for them to try and port 2, but this time around they will be able to reset Falcons. Taking a little bit more of a scenic route here. They're over a Stasis Array. Crafting their way and looking to get some more Evo to approach this Zone with Purple Armours for sure. It's gonna be a tough rotate for them. They've got Alliance who are holding them out towards Cliffside if they decide to try and go that way.

00:49:20 Will be an interesting match point finals for Falcons as well, having that 11th seed for the pick in the POI draft, but statistically they've actually performed better when they've had a worse POI draft position in this tournament rather than having the number one pick, so maybe that's something they can use to their advantage. Falcons have managed to get a little bit ahead of where Alliance's position was, as you can see on your screen here, so shouldn't be too worried.

00:49:47 And now they're ahead of Alliance. It's a case of do they want to try and hold them out or do they want to try and find their way into zone? The problem is for Falcons here, they've got ahead of Alliance, but now they've got 100 Thieves and S8UL in front of them. So all of their rotates are going to be very, very difficult. Twerkaholics, safe for the next zone.

00:50:03 No one really near them, but getting in from this position is going to be tough. Yeah, look, they're safe in the next zone, but they're thinking about moving south, because they're trying to work out where would teams be that are still rotating late, and they're assuming it would be from the southern side. I mean, bad news for them is they are actually the latest to the zone, but maybe they can come across Fury who are currently holding that choke, as now we're going to see a push here from GHS. Boom. Mad Maggie, first pick. Love that.

00:50:29 Karte von Empire versucht zu halten, Yari-Man geht es jetzt, und jetzt GHS-Boom wird es in den Nummern momentanisch. Es wird ein 1v2 auf der Seite von Reilly. Reilly-Mechanik versucht zu machen, wo er kann! Oh mein, er ist hier für Empire!

00:50:44 Worth noting, Empire ist die einzige Team in der Lobby, die nicht gewonnen hat, so far in der gesamten Tournament. Aber es könnte bald kommen, wenn sie das Spiel spielen. Interestingly, Empire ist eigentlich eine der besten Broken Moon Team während der Tournament, auch. Sie sind immer wieder auf die Punkte. Und Sie können sehen, warum. Ein guter Team. Es ist immer gut, dass wir ein Pause kommen. Ich weiß, alle. Ich weiß, alle. Ich weiß, es wird wieder zurück. Es ist ein Pause, nicht ein Stop. Wir werden wieder zurück.

00:51:13 Something to mention about Empire, though. It's funny, isn't it? You mentioned they haven't won a game yet, but now we're at Match Point Finals. Imagine. Doesn't really matter. Just win one game now. Just win one game throughout a tournament and you become the champions here. But I am very interested in the way that these games have started, especially some of the teams who have played a certain way to get to this position. I love the fact that Twerkaholics still turn up here.

00:51:36 Championship Sunday, Matchpoint Finals. First time that they would have made it here. Nobody expected them to make it here. And they're sticking with the same game plan. They are looking to take that early fight. They are looking to put KP on the board. They want to rush towards Matchpoint.

00:51:49 Das ist einfach so, wie sie es machen. Es ist einfach so, dass alle Leute in der Lobby sind. Und wir sind einfach ein Controller auf dem Platz, einen Spieler zu haben, also das ist der Pause. Und wir werden einfach so, bevor wir zurückkommen in den Spiel gehen. Und nur ein reminder, für jemanden, die zu sehen, Apex Legends zu sehen, natürlich, dass viele Fans auf die Welt sehen, die sich nicht in der Welt gesehen haben. Es ist ein Nessie Totem. Es ist ein sehr einfaches Weg zu approachen, diese Finals. Du musst nur als viele Hatschen wie möglich, und dann gewinnen. Du musst für die Finals gewinnen.

00:52:18 Es ist verrückt, wirklich, wie die Regeln haben geändert. Es wird 1st zu 50 Punkte geben. Es wird dich auf die Matchpoint gewonnen. Und dann haben wir einen Match nach dem, und das ist wie du einen Krieg hast, hier in diesem Land. Wir sehen uns die 100 Thieves, Ultras, sie sind da. EnVy fans sind auch. Und für alle die Talken der Falcons run, wir müssen uns das EnVy haben, dass EnVy etwas sehr, sehr ähnlich ist. Yesterday, du sahst die Embrace zwischen Falcons und EnVy. Ich glaube, sie waren einfach für einen anderen. Aber sie hat es geschafft, dass sie durch das Elimination Bracket und natürlich in unsere Finals. 100T.

00:52:48 They didn't have to worry about the LIM finals. They went straight through the winner side, straight to this finals. And you gotta say, they look pretty darn good doing so. Well, I said we have 10 champions on the stage who have lifted a trophy before in ALGS history. There's three of them right there on your very screen. One of the favorites for sure to win the entire thing today. When you think about being composed under pressure, not panicking in that final circle, when you get given that opportunity to win 100 Thieves, they ooze that confidence. And I would not be surprised if at some point...

00:53:17 in these Matchpoint Finals, they get the opportunity to win this whole thing. The real question is, will they take it? It's such a fascinating thing when we look at the Matchpoint format, because so many teams get there to 50 points. They get the opportunity, but when it arises, it feels so different. It feels from how they normally would play one of those endgames. You see the nerves, you feel the pressure, and they aren't able to convert on that opportunity.

00:53:44 But for now, it looks like we're moments away from the match being back on pause and our first match here continue on Broken Moon. So let's raise that noise a little bit more here in New Orleans. Let's get these players ready to get back into this game and let's see.

00:53:58 Die Twerkaholics werden jetzt auf den FURIA gesagt haben. Die Twerkaholics werden jetzt auf den FURIA gehalten. Und die Twerkaholics werden jetzt auf den FURIA gehalten. Die Twerkaholics werden jetzt auf den FURIA gehalten. Die Twerkaholics werden jetzt auf den FURIA gehalten. Und die Twerkaholics werden jetzt auf den FURIA gehalten. Die Twerkaholics werden jetzt auf den FURIA gehalten. Die Twerkaholics werden jetzt auf den FURIA gehalten.

00:54:23 By very definition extremely late decision and rotate from them Alliance very good at watching their backs, but they're gonna be tested here twerkaholics are gonna take the long route they're gonna make sure They try and force this fight, but if it doesn't work for twerkaholics that could be the end of this game

00:54:39 Sie werden viel zu tun, um die Zone zu tun. Wenn Allianz fährt... Oh, Allianz hat einfach nur left! Das ist ein Gott sei Dank für die Twerkaholics. Sie können durch den Cliff-Side kommen, sie können auf den East kommen und sie werden, und sie werden, sind sicher. Vielleicht 100 Thieves werden, um ein paar Shots zu sehen, aber...

00:54:56 It's a risky rotate from Twerkaholics, but it looks like it's going to work out for now. But even further than that, when you look past where they go, it is like a gauntlet that they have to get through. The teams you have to surpass to get into core. Well, one thing they could do there is hit the man scan and check, essentially, in zone, if there's anyone holding them out. But for now, we're jumping on board with Alliance, the team who just moved from the position that was potentially holding out Twerkaholics. And they're checking their backs here. Unlucky feels that maybe something's not quite right.

00:55:24 By the way, the Twerkaholics are still in Zone, and they're heading even further northeast. This is quite the rotation from them. By the way, the Zone is pulling northwest as well, but we're checking with Falcons and see whether they can just avoid this gunfire right now.

00:55:40 Shopify Rebellion versus Falcons. Void Passage is going to let Hau get away for a few seconds here. But Walsi is not going to be so lucky because he runs into Zainu as a Peacekeeper. Hau is going to have to use the mother load.

00:55:56 And look for this reset here, but Falcons trying to force their way into Zone have taken some casualties. Should be okay, Alliance have now spotted Empire, and behind them the Twerkaholics are starting to arrive, by the way. If this fight lingers too long, the Twerkaholics might just join in. I think they will have to. And Floating doesn't need to be asked twice. This man is always ready to engage. Takes a little bit of damage on the Cross here, but on the Wraith, will be able to take a few seconds.

00:56:22 Just to pop that battery. If he needs to, he can jump into the void to survive. Empire trying to hold down this position. That is towards the back side of Zone. Empire have already held once. And they've been able to force Alliance to the other side. And I think they noticed the Twerkaholics there as well. So they're more than prepared. They back off slightly. They are not over-engaging here. But you know the Twerkaholics are looking to fight. Now the Zone is starting to force a couple of other teams into an equation now. Cat have to leave. VP are alongside them as well.

00:56:50 Only Blue Armour to work with. They do get the Catwall down to move in towards Core from their southern side, but they've got FURIA, they've got Falcons, they've got VP surrounding them. The Catwall will be good enough to block off the fight that's going down to their right. They could be able to rotate here without taking too much damage, but as I say that, once he will manage to turn one...

00:57:12 And even though there's two members still alive here inside of the building from Falcons, this becomes a 2v2! But so many teams getting influential in this fight! Wolter will find another one! Falcons are fighting two teams at once here and somehow still staying on top of it. Twerkaholics will be eliminated in the end. Empire have got the better of them. Kat are down to one. Theria are eliminated and everything's popping off here on Broken Moon. 13 Squad remaining. Taxi to the last alive here for Kat. You saw Zero as the last alive momentarily for Falcons as well. 100 Thieves.

00:57:42 Starts to tiptoe a little bit closer to the central structure of Core here. But they have a long way to go and only 40 seconds to do it. Empire has been eliminated. Alliance in the feed. Pick up some KP.

00:57:56 Allianz, eine andere Gruppe, die in den internationalen Wettbewerden haben, vor der EWC letzten Jahr. Als Falcons re-spawn, Lottse und Imperial Howe. Ist jemand da, zu vielleicht contesten diese Dropship? Sie sehen, dass sie okay sind. Aber sie werden schnell gehen. Die Zone wird bald in 15 Sekunden verlassen. Also, die Team werden sie vielleicht durchführen können, ist 100 Thieves. Schöpfe Rebellion ist in fronte, aber sie haben sich gerade auf sie gegründet. Die Goodeis hier für die Re-spawnige Spieler ist, dass sie ein Death Boxes zu spielen haben, also sie werden können.

00:58:27 A little bit of inventory to make these fights a little bit more comfortable. There is 100 Thieves. Now we watch through the POV of Verholtz on the Newcastle in this game number one with a G7 scout in his hand. Just dropping the purple for the gold armor as well. Utilize those shield cells as best as you can.

00:58:43 Und ich denke, 100 Thieves sind bereit, um sich zu machen. Es war ein Void Nexus, das war vielleicht auch möglich, aber jetzt Falcons starten zu machen, ein bisschen weiter nach hier. Eine schwierige Sache für Falcons ist, Hal und Walsi, die nicht nur die Ultimates haben, um diese Rotation zu machen, nicht mehr. Instead, es wird Zero, die die Void Nexus haben, aber an dieser Stelle wird es schwer zu haben, zu haben, es wird es eine straighte Fight. Rivalenten wird, und Walsi...

00:59:10 Alongside Hau, Alpen hat ein grosses Wettbewerb. Es ist ein Wettbewerb. Es ist ein Wettbewerb. Es ist ein Wettbewerb. Es ist ein Wettbewerb. Es ist ein Wettbewerb. Es ist ein Wettbewerb. Es ist ein Wettbewerb. Es ist ein Wettbewerb. Es ist ein Wettbewerb. Es ist ein Wettbewerb.

00:59:42 The minds were twisted indeed by Hau, but sadly they'll fall in 7th position. But Falcons put good points on the board for Match 1. But that does leave things open now for 100 Thieves, Shopify Rebellion. And do not forget about Envy, who have been in that building this entire game right from the start, waiting for their moment. Hackers popping the Alt Excel on the Crypto to get that EMP back. That could be a huge influence. Oh, as can shots like that from unlucky. He's only hitting Henson.

01:00:09 He is not missing. I mean, there wasn't much else to see apart from the head, but you still have to hit that pinpoint accuracy. Maybe Alliance looking to get aggressive onto 100 Thieves, but they see the Void Nexus is going to be used by Shopify Rebellion to go Central Zone. Alliance just had to take a second there because of the fact that Effect did go down momentarily. Shopify Rebellion will retreat through that portal.

01:00:33 Und Pricey von Alcanzia. Freize the Needle, man. Just avoid connecting with three or four players who are locked up there. Six squads, Round 5's closing. Shopify Rebellion have just lost two by the looks of it. They might be soon to be ended on Broken Moon. Alliance could potentially clean them up. And this is a very patient approach from Alliance, by the way. They are not forcing themselves into the zone because they know they don't have much to work with once they get there. Well, the Catwalk comes in from 100T. That's going to allow them to move.

01:00:59 A little bit closer towards the Zone, but look at this prediction! Coming in from a fake, so much damage being done, and Lucky gets to pick on a jet button, as Pricey starts to shatter some shields. 100 Thieves are being pressured from a lot of angles right now, but the Newcastle War will save them for the time being, and it's a whiff from Pricey on the second attempt. Strafing Flame though is alongside his teammate to pick up one. 100 Thieves trying to force their way towards Zone, it's only a duo though.

Alliance dominiert das erste Spiel und erreicht Matchpoint

01:01:28

01:01:28 Pricy now turns his attention a little bit closer. To Zone! It's a 2-10! Chopper Fireless! Rebellion have been eliminated in the meantime. 100 Thieves will go down next. Alliance now!

01:01:41 Dropped got dropped, but Envy will be okay, they'll be able to get him back up. Now suddenly it's VK Gaming, Envy and Alliance, your last three teams. It's South, it's West, it's North, it's 3v3v3. This is Apex Legends. This is now when you look to your IGLs to say, what can we do here to try and win this game? Well, the worrying thing here for Alliance, his effect is a little bit separate from the rest of his team, and I think he's a bit trapped behind that truck.

01:02:09 VKG-VKG-VKG-E

01:02:32 Und es sieht aus wie Allianz wird ihn abgehauen. Jetzt ist es nur ein 3v3. Hackes mit der Krabbe in den Händen, die letzte Bullets zu tun. Und jetzt in der ersten Spiel hier in New Orleans. In der Match Point Finals. Es ist ein 3v3. Allianz hat ihn auf Allianz. Hackes hat ihn abgehauen. Muck ist es da. 2 für 2. Und jetzt Hackes hat ihn abgehauen. 2v2. Zap ist es down. Es ist sehr, sehr hoch.

01:03:03 Don't think they're going to be able to get the rest here. They're going to slide it instead. In fact, he'll fight too. Sykes the last hope here for Envy. Hack is trying to survive, trying to fight.

01:03:29 Was ist ein Spiel von Allianz?

01:03:51 I love the aggression from Alliance. Don't give Envy the time to think about how they're going to play this endgame. Also, what was important, because Effect had already used the Motherload, they knew they were an ult down in that fight. So how do they take advantage of it and catch them off guard?

01:04:17 Und nicht nur sie bekommen, sie bekommen mit 16 Kills! Sie sind bereits auf den Weg nach Matchpoint. Das ist ein Monster-First-Games, von Allianz. 16 Kills in der Matchpoint-Finals-Lobby hier auf Championship Sunday. Das ist sehr speziell von der EMEA-Team. Und es fühlt sich wie sie die Verantwortung von der Region auf ihren Schultern nehmen. Die Next-Man-Legend wird Newcastle. No Newcastle available.

01:04:44 für ein paar Zeit. Ich will nicht sagen, für den Rest der Serie, weil wir nicht wissen, wie lange es wird. Es ist eine Chance, Newcastle wird wieder sein.

01:04:50 You never really know with what's going to happen, because of course with Legend bans in Matchpoint, if an entire class does get banned, essentially it starts to reset and the first banned Legend in that class gets put back into action. So if that does happen, it could be exciting. Well, Match No. 1 was absolutely superb. Broker Moon though, we're going to have to say goodbye as we're going to change maps in just a few seconds time as Match No. 2 is coming up in our Matchpoint Finals. Alliance with a win in Match No. 1, who's going to take Match No. 2?

Red Bull und Alienware präsentieren sich in New Orleans

01:08:09

01:08:09 Welcome back to New Orleans, everybody. And Red Bull are bringing the energy to New Orleans with the Red Bull Gauntlet booth. They have four stations where you can hot drop into solo lobbies to get your score on the leaderboard for a chance to win a Sony in-zone gaming gear as well as other premium prizes. So head on over to the Red Bull Gauntlet booth, grab a can of Red Bull and throw your hat into the ring.

01:08:29 I will, I may, just after Match Point finishes, if it finishes. Who knows how long it will take today? Do you have a number that you're kind of thinking of today? I don't do that. Where we're going? Have you noticed I'm never on the predictions? I do. I think that's a little bit cheeky that you're not on the predictions, if I do say so myself, but there was a time when you used to be a curse. Anyway, Match 2 is upon us, and it does mean we are moving away from Broken Moon.

01:08:52 Und wir sind jetzt in Stormpoint. Das ist natürlich alles, denn wir haben ein ganz anderes Team, die nicht nur gut an diese Map sind, sondern sie haben es in der P.O.I. Draft. Ja, wie du sagst, es gibt verschiedene Dropspots, es gibt verschiedene Zones, verschiedene Legends, Compositions, all diese Sachen, die wir jetzt machen das wahrscheinlich die meisten Matchpoint-Finals haben, in der ALGS. So viele Variables, die du hast zu denken, als Team, als Coach, als Fan, als Team, als Fan. Was Composition ist meine Team, wo sie werden?

01:09:19 We got you up to date. Don't worry. We'll keep you informed of everything that's going to be going down. But, I mean, game number one, Alliance. We need to take a second to talk about that because what a run that was. 16 kills alongside the placement points. It's the perfect start.

01:09:31 für Match Point Finals.

Strategische Kartenwahl und Legend-Bans prägen die Matchpoint-Finals

01:09:54

01:09:54 von Allianz. As you just saw, Stormpoint is going to be mapped to and there's confirmation Newcastle will be banned, not just for Match 2, but for the entirety of Match Point Finals, unless the entire support class gets banned, which it probably won't. Probably. Yeah, exactly. Just a good probably once again. We never know at this point.

01:10:16 But as we head towards match number two, it's gonna be, like you say, Newcastle-Bamm. We now move to Stormpoint, and I like the fact that we start on Broken Moon and Stormpoint, two of the historically faster, more aggressive maps for these teams to play on, where those KP's start to really start to kind of flow, and you don't see those big POIs with a lot of buildings in, where we have more of a kind of stacked endzone. So this is the POI draft. What are you taking away from this one, Dan? Green Stego got Lightning Rod. They picked it seventh. Again, this is what I was alluding to earlier. If you finished in that top ten...

01:10:45 von Winner's Bracket, du hast nur einen guten Pick gewonnen. Und wir werden sehen, wie sie weitergehen können. Ich bin nicht sicher, dass die Namen noch nicht auf die Aufmerksamkeit sind, aber wir werden das auch ein bisschen weiterentwickelt werden. Natürlich sind die Teams hier zu schauen, die Greenstegow, Babbo an Pylon, VK Gaming an Seto Station, und GHS Boom an Cenote Cave.

01:11:09 You see, a lot of POIs, I would say, that are not first picks for a lot of these teams. And that's another thing to take into consideration, even from things like scrims and drafts, where players are getting used to playing from certain POIs. There's a little bit of familiarity a lot of time with two or three different POIs, maybe even a few more. But some of these feel a little bit uncomfortable for our teams that we have in the lobby. One team that has got to keep their head on a swivel, though, is Alliance. Because if you look towards the northern side of Stormpoint here...

01:11:37 Allianz haben den Trident gewonnen. Das ist meistens für die resten der Lobby, dass wir auch Northland wollen, und wenn wir hier kommen, werden wir kämpfen. Also, wer ist vorhin auf Northland? Die Twerkaholics, baby! Sie werden ihren Weg nach Allianz bewegen, ich sicher. Aber wirklich, wenn du smart bist, möchtest du dich gegen die Team, die jetzt leidigen? Sie haben 28 Punkte auf der Bühne und sind bereits über halbwegs nach Matchpoint.

01:12:03 Usually someone normal will probably say no. The Twerkaholics, however, you never know what to expect with these boys. Let's show you something different. Anyway, let's talk about Zone, let's talk about where we are going. Going down towards the south.

01:12:15 Auf Storm Pointe hier ist es wahrscheinlich Heilside, ich würde sagen. Es ist ein interessanter, eigentlich, zu callen. Das ist das Kind der Zonen, wenn man denkt, vielleicht wird es für 3rd Beacon Info gehen, denn es könnte auch auf die Mountain Range gehen. Ja, es könnte eher auf den Führer, eher auf den Pylon-Side sein. Aber natürlich Nine Lies, Führer, Babbo, sie werden eher...

01:12:33 Die Twerkaholik hat bereits gemacht, als die Twerkaholik schon wiederum.

01:13:00 Managed to get to that Evo Harvester, which is going to give them a real opportunity here. Lunix wants blood. You can see that. He's chasing them down. He's got two times on that Charge Rifle. And if you haven't got Blue Armor on Alliance, it's a scary, scary weapon to feel firing over your shoulder as you try and retreat. I mean, this is amazing. To see Twerkaholics continuing to play this way, continuing to be aggressive against a team that has just dropped 28 points.

01:13:24 They are so confident in their engagements. They do get an armor check though and notice that Alliance are up to blue as well. I think that one player, probably Hackers, was able to go away and get an Evo Harvester there. But Alliance are not one to be shying away from a fight either, may I add. I mean, just look at this effect, by the way. He has the sling weapon. We'll go back to that in just a few seconds' time as rival Esports inside of this build and a pylon. They've got a fight on their hands as well. It's Nightline's on the other side.

01:13:53 Rival's losing a couple.

01:13:56 Die R99 ist gut. Die 9-Lie ist ein wenig zu tun. Die Armour sollte genug sein. Die Rivals werden durchgeführt. Die Rivals werden durchgeführt. Die 9-Lie sind in der Killfeed. Die Twerkaholik haben nur durchgeführt. Sie haben das 3-V-3 gewonnen. Die Rivalisten sind nicht mehr zu können. Das ist ein Fights. Sie sehen, wer wirklich kam auf dem Topf? Es war vielleicht ein bisschen early in dieser Situation. Especially auf der Seite von Pylon.

01:14:23 Der Team wird sich umgekehrt, und wenn es so aggressiv ist, wenn es umgekehrt ist, dann wissen Sie, wo die Zone ist.

01:14:29 Es gibt noch ein paar Teams da zu 3rd, also das ist vielleicht ein paar Teams da, die vielleicht noch ein paar Mal wieder auf und sagen, was das nicht der Smartest Decision? Okazio und Babo sind jetzt gerade auf den Moment. Price ist viel zu viel, aber es ist ein Potenzial für AvoidNexus, nur zu gehen. Es sieht aus, das wird das Spiel für AvoidNexus sein. Und das wird das Spiel für AvoidNexus sein. Und das wird das Spiel wiederholen, und sie werden ihren Grunde genommen haben. Das ist ein Spiel zwischen Allianz und Twerkaholics. Was ist ein wichtiges Spiel für Allianz. Wenn wir als Matchpoint-Finals gehen, wenn wir nach Stormpoint zurückgehen, sie haben bereits das 1-Up über die Twerkaholics.

01:14:58 und vielleicht kann sie ihn weg. Und auch, wenn man Legend Composition hat, Legend Bands ist, dass Effekt war Ballistik, und er hat sich auf Rampage gesehen. Er hat die Sling Weapon gekämpft, und er wird mehr als ein Spieler sein. Und ich denke, dass das vielleicht ein Differenz-Maker ist, dass wir, wir nicht ganz gut sehen können. Aber für Allianz, jetzt können sie chillen. Sie haben die Trident, sie können Looten, sie haben 3 mehr Kp, und jetzt sind sie auf 31 Punkte. So, die Cut-Off ist, oder soll ich sagen, zu werden Matchpoint-Eligible, ist es 50.

01:15:27 Das war mir meine Frage, wie early kann Allianz hit Matchpoint hier? Weil das Early-Fight gibt es die Hoffnung und die Freude zu gehen. Es ist eine lange Zeit, aber sie haben den Trident. Sie haben den Trident gewonnen, Sie haben den Trident gewonnen, Sie haben den Trident gewonnen, und jetzt können Sie all den Weg um den Westen-Side, wenn Sie möchten, um den Southen-Side zu erreichen. Es ist eine Realität, wo Allianz sind auf Matchpoint, nach zwei Spiele hier.

01:15:51 JHS Boom, uh, hearing a Trident, but not seeing a Trident. And because of that, they're gonna move towards Jurassic and try and rotate a little bit themselves. NRG. Gonna really frustrate someone who might try and find a Void Nexus to go back to, because that's gonna be destroyed here by Guild. But they're in a pretty good spot actually playing the... ...eastern side of Pylon.

01:16:21 Die Wester-Side der Pylon sind haltet, die das Team zu versuchen, zu versuchen. Janja wird durch. Als NRG fokussiert werden sie, und ich sage sie soll, werden sie wieder zurückgezogen werden. Aber sie sind so viele Bullets fliegen in. Es geht um auch. Jeder ist eine Pop.

01:16:43 And now Timmy is the last remaining player who is going to have to try and work out how on earth they keep them in the game. Remember it was an early exit from NRG in match one as well. You do not want to fall too far behind in match point finals. It is a back and forth dance between the void passage, but sadly NRG eliminated and it will be Lord of the Rings getting the job done. Falcons versus Shopify rebellion.

01:17:07 Former teammates. Former champions. Many a LAN champion in this fight. Over to Fury though. This is outside the north side of Barometer on the Nut Building. And it's Empire who are having to use that EMP.

01:17:26 Ich weiß nicht, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öffnung, dass die Öff

01:17:52 We speak about Land Champions, there's a couple on this team and of course MT. Not a Land Champion yet, but one of the best IGLs around. Was he yet to pick up that Land Championship himself? Take a look at our map overhead then. He is gonna be pulling towards Pylon even more. The question is, is it gonna be the Babo position where it pulls towards those triangle buildings? Or is it gonna go down towards the 100 Thieves side?

01:18:18 Es ist eine solche, nicht wahr? Du hast gewonnen, Fingers crossed. Das ist eine Norte-South-Buildung, und es könnte die Unterschiede machen, nicht nur in diesem Spiel, aber wenn man die Matchpoint-Finals als ein, wie viel das könnte, wenn man eine große Chance hat, wenn man eine große Chance hat, wenn man eine große Chance hat, hier auf Stormpoint. Sie sehen, SAU-L war überwinden, um von Jurassic Park zu überwinden, aber sie wurden von 100 Thieves zurückgekehrt. Ich denke, das ist sehr wichtig für 100T. Sie müssen sicher, dass sie jemanden, der versucht, durch ihre Jurassic Gate zu überwinden.

01:18:46 Twisted Minds in a great position. That's one of the buildings I was talking about. There's little triangular tent buildings that can be so, so good towards the endgame. So many zones do actually pull right outside of where that building is. And they will be, like I say, crossing their fingers and anything else that will cross that the zone pulls towards them. Kat just trying to spot out any players that might be arriving at Pylon and joining them just below them. But there's plenty of space to play within Pylon, but...

01:19:12 The Zone unlikely to pull onto that POI, of course, so it is a risky position to try and hold, and maybe just a desperate last attempt to do so. As Team Falcons, Stormpoint is usually their bread and butter. They've got three wins on it throughout this tournament, but of course they did play extra games through the elimination bracket that some in the winners did not. But it's actually 100 Thieves and NRG were the highest point scorers on this map, and of course NRG already eliminated. Broken Moon and Stormpoint, the best maps for NRG, and they're already out of both. I'll tell you what.

01:19:41 Ich war nicht sicher, dass die Greensteggerhäuser sind. Und dann, auf der richtige Zeit, sie sich zurückkehren. Zero hat sich schon mal geholfen. Und jetzt, die Falcons haben sich jetzt noch ein paar Entscheidungen gemacht. Es ist nur fünf Sekunden, bis diese Zone starte zu verlassen. Und es wird die Evac. Falcons Fans, hold your breath!

01:20:00 Up into the sky Adjust your radar and make sure you can find a pinpoint position to work with It looks like they're gonna skirt around the eastern side actually and maybe transition to the southern part of this pylon and I guess it works for now, but I Think this position is just an assessing position, right? Get somewhere that's safe and then you move in once you've been able to spot something else out The difficulty for them is how do they rotate from here, right? You look at the composition again

01:20:27 dass sie nicht in Newcastle spielen können, so sie können nicht in diese Position halten. Sie haben einen Catalyst, um zu versuchen, es hat sie zu versuchen. Es hat sich vielleicht eine Voidnexus-Player von Zero zu versuchen, um sie in den Zonen zu versuchen. Allianz haben bereits einen Kp, sie sind für mehr. Es ist Empire auf dem anderen Seite, und die Dark Veil kommen, aber sie haben sich in den Zonen. Sie haben eine 2, also Allianz versucht sie zu machen. Ja, um es zu machen.

01:20:56 Das ist sehr wichtig für den Rest der Lobby. Du kannst Allianz gehen zu weit weg. Sie sind zu weit weg. Sie sind auf 33 Punkte. Still brilliant nach zwei Matches.

01:21:22 Aber es bedeutet, dass sie nicht zu match pointen werden, bis jetzt. S-A-U-L wird weg. Ich weiß nicht, wie gut sie haben.

01:21:38 Wir haben mit 1, aber es geht um Zero und Walty jetzt zu versuchen, diese Situation zu versuchen, sie in diese Situation zu versuchen. Zero zu versuchen, die Void Passage zu versuchen, zu kreieren, zu kreieren, zu kreieren. Und jetzt haben sie ein bisschen zu starten, ein bisschen in der Schaffung. Sie haben die Zeit hier zu bekommen, sie haben die Zeit hier zu bekommen. Ja, als sie die Zeit haben, Kat dann kam und kam und kam zu schauen. EMP von Walty, das geht um, das geht um, das geht um, das geht um, das geht um, das geht um, das geht um, das geht um.

01:22:03 Ja, und er ist leider nur auf Fuse, hat er die Abilität zu escape. Aber er hat den Schildswap. Und er hat den Schildswap. Und er hat den Schildswap. Und er hat den Schildswap.

01:22:22 Hau ist immer wieder zu machen, aber Falcons wird endlich fallen.

01:22:37 100 Thieves are still holding the northern side you can see right on the corner of your screen there in that building but the zone is actually gonna move closer towards pylon a little bit unexpected for some of these squads and imagine it's just gonna finish on the edges of it again 100 Thieves in a very good spot they can play the height of their platform they will just about be in on the edge of that building as well but they've got to hold out the likes of S8 UL who still have

01:23:00 Die GHS-Boom sind auf der Seite. Die VK-Gaming sind auf der Seite. Die VK-Gaming sind auf der Seite. Die VK-Gaming sind auf der Seite. Die VK-Gaming sind auf der Seite. Die VK-Gaming sind auf der Seite. Die VK-Gaming sind auf der Seite. Die VK-Gaming sind auf der Seite. Die VK-Gaming sind auf der Seite. Die VK-Gaming sind auf der Seite. Die VK-Gaming sind auf der Seite.

01:23:29 Ich glaube, ihr habt es getetet, aber 100 Thieves hat es sehr schnell aus Stormpoint gesagt, dass wir nicht die Rotation haben. Und jetzt, SAU will jetzt alle durch Jurrasik Park und durch GHS Boom. Und wir wissen, dass GHS Boom hat sich sehr gut an kämpfen. 12 Quads remaining, 8 Teams bereits aus dem Lobby.

01:23:55 We mentioned how Fury is going to have to move uphill alongside Alcatia and Virtus Pro. Shopify Rebellion still the team trying to hold them out. You can see the fences are down. It's going to be such a tough rotate. You get the feeling there's only going to be one winner from this position. And Fury know they only have 20 seconds to make this move. Alcatia have got them surrounded right now. It's going to be two separate 3v3s. Alcatia versus Fury as SR are taking on Virtus Pro. Not does damage, but will fall. Love this angle being taken by Pricey as well. They also have the Void Nexus down if they want to retreat here.

01:24:23 Brise wants to finish this himself though. VP eliminated on the other side of this hill with this fight. And Player K for Alcanzia will be able to take down the final members of FURIA. Shopify Rebellion also want their engagement. Now Babbo are having a look at them. GHS are also fighting VKG elsewhere as GHS Boom have got that initial knock. And now they're looking to apply some Boom with the grenades. Rampage Sling weapon here on the Ballistic is going to be the Difference Maker once again. So much damage output.

01:24:51 Das ist jetzt 100T mit einem PK in den Händen von Phoney. Look for Blood. Das ist ein grosses Abfall in diesem Rund. Es gibt nicht viel Platz und viel Platz und viel Platz. Sie müssen durchführen. VKG, Slither of Health werden in 10th Position geholfen. Und wieder, 100 Thieves. Sie gehen von den Norden. Sie kontrollieren Jurassic Park. Das war das Ziel von der ersten Start. PK Gaming, wie ich gesagt. Sie sind nicht bereit, zu über-Extend. Sie wollen niemanden in der Bedingung der Bühne halten. Sie wissen, wie viel value es ist.

01:25:19 Jetzt gehen wir nach dem Süden. Schopafi Rebellion, in der Gebäude! Das ist eine große Herausforderung für sie. Sie spielen für eine gewünschte Position hier. Schopafi Rebellion haben die Gebäude zu arbeiten, und sie sind in der Gebäude. Aber Alkazia wird in den anderen Gebäude, versuchen sie zu angeln.

01:25:40 Komm schon, komm schon, komm schon!

01:26:11 So you let's see you left

01:26:29 Wait, they're trolling bro. 100 Thieves can't hold one more time, and it's GHS Boom who take out 100 Thieves and now control this side of Zoe, but Alcanzia probably seen this going down, they're trying to wrap it. They are moving fast through those Void Plashes as well, but they're also being shot by another score behind. I think Twisted Mind, we're having a look at them, and GHS Boom should have been able to reset, will reset here.

01:26:52 Aber sie wissen, dass Alkazia zu sein wird, das ist die richtige Frage. Aber ein sehr guter Versuch von GHS. Du fiel für 100 Thieves, nachdem sie 1, 2, 3 Teams haben, aber sie können nicht die vierte. Sie sehen, dass diese Zone eine sehr gute Position für die zweite Mal in zwei Games ist.

01:27:12 S8UL hat es geschafft, aber es war einfach nicht möglich für sie zu verraten. Nach dem mit dem 100 Thieves und Scharke geht, und jetzt sind sie in eine sehr gute Position. Schöpfefe und Rebellion haben sie einen langen Weg hier. Sie sind die Team auf die Schrein. Und sie sind weit entfernt von den Zonen. Ja, sie könnten all den Weg nach Westen, als Alkazio hätte, wenn sie wollten, denn sie haben ein bisschen cover von Pylon zu arbeiten.

01:27:38 You can of course scout out via MT and the Crypto first just to try and assess the situation and that looks to be what Shopify Rebellion are going to do. They're just skirting on the western side trying to avoid gunfire because then they can control the south of this next zone. 15 seconds till that zone starts to close here.

01:28:05 Envy know that the neighbors are going to get a little bit closer as that clock starts to progress, starts to dwindle down. Twisted Minds are trying to make their play with the Void Nexus.

01:28:16 Remember Twisted Minds early on banked on this pulling down to the south side of Pylon and had to adjust their game plan accordingly to get into a position to fight for this endgame. Yeah, the P2020s are locked and loaded because this is about to pop off because there's about five teams all in the same area. S8UL, the first to move out onto the east and this Rampage could tear through teams. It's tearing through some shields right now.

01:28:40 Es wird all die Kallis beinforced, aber da ist ein Knuckle-Klosser, das wird es einfach öffnen. SAUL will es versuchen, die P20 jetzt zu nehmen. Es gibt keine Knocks noch, aber es wird jetzt noch kommen, aber es wird Zynu von Shopify-Rebellion. Wer ist die Spieler, die zu werden? N.V. haben auch 2. N.V. ist jetzt einfach zu spielen. N.V. ist jetzt einfach zu spielen. N.V. ist jetzt einfach zu spielen. N.V. ist jetzt einfach zu spielen. N.V. ist jetzt einfach zu spielen. N.V. ist jetzt einfach zu spielen. N.V. ist jetzt einfach zu spielen. N.V. ist jetzt einfach zu spielen. N.V. ist jetzt einfach zu spielen.

01:29:06 Katt, die die größte von der hohen Garten ist, wird nun in der hohen Garten. Auf der anderen Seite der Zone, GHS Boom komplett kontrolliert. Alcantia ist jetzt in der Mitte, Strafe in Flamme. Dodging, Dugging, Diving, Weaving towards Zynu. Kannst du nicht mit den Final Shots von der Eivere. Good job, wenn du mit dem, mit all den Void Passages geschehen. Chopper Fire Rebellion eliminated in 5th. Void Nexus, jetzt benutzt Alcantia. Kannst du eigentlich mit dem? GHS Boom!

01:29:32 Sie sagen, nein! Sie sagen, nein! Sie sagen, nein! Sie sagen, nein! Sie sagen, nein! Sie sagen, nein! Sie sagen, nein!

01:29:51 So GHS Boom will hold the outside of this building and of course that single solo player Taxington on Kat will influence how this circle is going to go as well unless Twisted Minds can quickly take him out before their fight otherwise depending on what Taxington does could really change who's gonna win this game

01:30:19 Ich meine, die Headglitches hier, die Twisted Minds haben, würde es sehr... Excuse me, das GHS Boom, die Potenzial haben, könnte es sehr schwierig für Twisted Minds zu brechen. Aber sie haben ein bisschen Height zu spielen. Und sie haben ein Mann, der Name ist Albrelele. Er hat das Havoc in den Händen, dass er könnte sein, dass er könnte. Worth noting, GHS hat Ballistik, aber sehr gut für diese Endgame-Fights, für die pure Advantage, die alles in Ballistik.

01:30:47 Especially those Whistlers can really hit hard. I was just trying to find where this Solo is at the moment. Just gonna check inside. See if he can find that free KP. Taxenton's still being a nuisance. Little Relo comes in.

01:31:07 Und es wird GHS-Boom gewinnen!

01:31:35 Wie viele Booms für GHS? Ich denke, das ist etwa sechs von mir. Aber Twisted Minds haben auch sehr viele Punkte gemacht. Sadly, sie hat sich sehr viel auf Katz und Taksington gemacht, um sich nicht wirklich zu ändern. Aber leider hat sich auf ihn gefühlt. Aber GHS-Boom, ein Team, das hat so gut gemacht, während dieser Tournament. Ein Team, das nicht hätte die Chance, auf der Mainstage, wenn es nicht ein ALGS Open war, haben einfach gewonnen.

01:32:03 Hier auf der Main Stage.

GHS Boom triumphiert im zweiten Spiel, Allianz bleibt in Führung

01:32:29

01:32:29 Game number one, think about how quickly Alliance pointed to the top of that roof. And game number two, GHS do exactly the same thing. These are your match two result is 21 points on the board for GHS Booth. And I think what's important is that Alliance weren't able to back up their first victory with a big amount of points. Five is still good, still good for that consistent amount to get towards 50. But it means that the chasing pack were able to catch up and Alliance are now not as far ahead and certainly didn't...

01:32:56 Hier sind die Stats von der Top 3 von Match 2. GHS-Boom aufzunehmen. 9-kills-alongside. Der Punkt ist für das Nummer 1-spot. Twisted Minds. Das war das Spiel mit vielen Kills, nur der 1 für Alperleli.

01:33:25 Und in 3rd place you can see Kat, good kills along the board, all shared between 3 players, 2 apiece. 2 apiece, but these are how the series results are looking after 2. Alliance on 33, Alcadzia 26, GHS Boom on 21, Chopper Fire Rebellion and Falcons follow it up. So a few teams now getting close to the halfway point after 2 matches. And I will say, I think Albrelli may have got that kill if it wasn't an Alter. Well he doesn't have to worry about Alter anymore, because Alter's going to be banned.

01:33:53 weiter zu den nächsten paar Matches. Alter ist weg. Es ist Zeit für uns zu wiederholen, als wir wiederholen die MAPs wiederholen. Die Matchpoint-Finals werden in nur ein paar Momenten weitergehen. Es ist GHS-Boom, die gewinnen in Game Nr. 2.

01:35:45 Das war's.

01:36:19 The official PC of the Apex Legends Global Series.

01:36:57 Sony Inzone's 27-inch M10S gaming monitor is tournament ready. Co-developed with Fnatic, it boosts a 480Hz refresh rate with up to 0.03ms response time, allowing you to quickly spot and track enemy movements. Combine that with 4mm small footprint base and you've got a monitor that is as ready for competition at home as it is on the ALGS stage. For those of you guys who came here in New Orleans...

01:37:23 Wir haben zwei Menschen gewonnen. Das ist das Land, das ist das, was man sieht, wenn man in der crowd sitzt, hier in der ALGS Open.

01:37:32 Wir haben Albrel-Ali spoten mit dem Ende des Spiel, aber er wurde ein bisschen grüßt mit dem Rat in Taxington. Er sendet es und als er macht es... Wow, das war GHS-Boom. Sie haben die Situation perfekt. Mit der Katwahl und es ist alles über für sie. Gratsch zu GHS für den Win in Game 2. You know what I love seeing? I love Matchpoint Finals, weil du nicht...

01:37:59 Das war's. Wir sehen uns schon wieder. Wir sehen uns schon wieder. Wir sehen uns schon wieder. Wir sehen uns schon wieder.

01:38:11 Ja, Alkazia haben auch zwei solidte Ergebnisse in einem Jahr. Das ist warum sie in den Ständen sind, zwischen den beiden Wintern. Wie Sie sehen, Allianz ist ein 16-Kill-Games. Sie sind die typische Team, die wissen, wie sie auf den Sonntag auf den Land Finals zeigen. Sie haben es schon gemacht. Will sie wieder machen es hier in New Orleans? Time zu sehen. Weil, aside von diesen Legend-Bans zu implementieren, Sie wollen... Okay, Wol.

01:38:39 Sorry, unfortunately, no Bloodhound, Ballistic, you know. They're not the ones that are out of this roster out here. It's actually Newcastle and Alter, but that's what I want to highlight because we are moving on to World's Edge. Something about Map Point Finals that I absolutely love is implementing these new maps into our map rotation. Of course, we've seen E-District, Broken Moon, but now going back at home where some of our teams may feel more comfortable. And you've got to remember, this is a four-map

01:39:08 Und was ich finde, Vicky, ist es, dass es die Spielwelt aus dem Spiel ein bisschen. So, wenn du in den 20en Platz kamst, das bedeutet, dass du ein oder zwei Priority-Pickst aus den verschiedenen Plätzen kannst. Natürlich, wenn du in den 10en kommst, es bedeutet, dass es nur ein Schlimm-Pickst gibt.

01:39:31 Das ist nicht das, was wir schon gesehen haben. Und auch noch nicht, das ist nicht das, was sie viel Practice hat. Sie haben gut gemacht in Scrims gemacht. Sie haben die POI Draft gemacht in Scrims gemacht. Und deshalb haben sie es von Power Positions gemacht. Wer weiß, wie viel Practice hat, wie gut die LOOP-Routes sind, auf diese Lesser Known POIs.

01:39:56 Huge point here as we get started on World Edge match number three and once again to reiterate it is Alter and Newcastle who are banned for this game we've seen interesting plays with the alter on World Edge but that won't be on the table here for game number three as we take a look at our squad that just won game number two GHS

01:40:20 And seeing where the zone is going to be pulling next too, right? You highlighted Falcons before Genome, landing over by Survey Camp. They have that ring console that's right there as well. So they'll be able to split that loop before deciding how they want to play this, playing more so by the edge. And when they get that information, because they also do have a Survey Beacon too, aside from the ring console, they'll see that they are right there by the edge of that next zone pool. Hmm, interesting circle. Some of the ones we've seen near the Geyser Chokes, it doesn't seem to have enough of a subtly pull to be like that.

World's Edge und strategische Entscheidungen prägen Spiel 3

01:40:48

01:40:48 Potential to be on the lip below Epicenter, maybe even towards Monument itself. That would certainly help out NRG, who have got that and Fragment to themselves here on World's Edge. Alliance, of course, they've gone for Skyhook West. It's always been an early pick in the POI drafts, but it hasn't worked out for everyone. We've seen some teams, even with the abundance of Skyhook zones that have been coming up, haven't done so well.

01:41:17 Bavo, ein paar sehr schöne Schöne hier. Das Arcstar findet es Mark, es könnte es Full Send Time. Oh, nur ein bisschen ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...

01:41:47 Ich glaube, es ist etwas, dass Bavel kann, wenn ich auf Shopify bin. Aber beide diese Teams sind eigentlich einfach nur von einem anderen. Es war, ehrlich gesagt, die Fight for Information, denn Stagingen hat das Survey Beacon und Ring Console. Bavel ist ja weg, Torquaholics werden starten machen, als sie weiterentwickeln von Thermal Station. Und das ist ein Team, das auch nicht hat eine Ring Console. Ich glaube, es war ein Double Survey Beacon, das Thermal Station hat.

01:42:10 und die Evo Harvester. So, sie werden sich um, als wir sehen, dass andere Teams werden. Oh mein Gott. Look how many squads already flying right through Fragment. Ja, wir haben schon Air Traffic Controllers hier. Wir haben so viele Leute in den gleichen Zeit. Ich hoffe, dass sie nicht, ich weiß nicht, dass sie sich in einen Fall haben. Wir hängen zu sehen, würden wir? Das wäre ein Schade.

01:42:33 Christmas coming early here for some entertainment for game number three. 100 Thieves have been able to find some space, but they can hear other teams within the vicinity, S8UL, that have been able to find some space over to the right side. Bit of an EVO difference, though, if you're looking at S8 and trying to secure a place here early. Could be risky considering that they still have those white EVO shields, so they may want to go for some poke pressure.

01:42:57 Early position, if you get scouted out, right? If someone just lands a shot on you and notices that you have white armor, you could absolutely be at risk. That said, without the Ulta, it is a little hard to push into the buildings. Potential, if you've got the Crypto, they might want to pop an EFP on you and then walk in. And of course, with S8 running the Watson, that would delete their defenses and leave the door wide open. But, thankfully, their Apex South friends...

01:43:26 Al-Kadir, nicht die Krypto hier. Es gibt noch viele in den letzten Map, Vicky, aber wir haben tatsächlich eine Reduction gemacht. Es ging um 10 zu 8, glaube ich. Das ist interessant. Considering, was du vorhin mit den Krypto-EMPs erwähnt. Playing eine Hand into es.

01:43:50 Now Katia, moving all the way up on top of the high ground of this building. They know that they can't go in through BKG's building, whereas on the other side of Landslide you have Torquaholics. Looking at Babbo, they've been trailing behind them since they were following them after coming out of Thermal Station. Babbo were coming out of Mirage of Troyes when we saw them disengage away from Staging.

01:44:13 Es ist so interessant zu folgen Twerkaholik. Ich denke, es ist die Nummer 1 Story. Ja. Wenn ich ehrlich bin. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh.

01:44:38 Was it the drone from Alliance that spotted them out? Yes, it was Hockey's drone. They just destroyed it right now. So they already know that they're right there. So GHS understanding that because they were holding Grandma's house where there's a beacon. Nine lies. Losing out McGloven, Cersei. Trying to get in here. Oh, he's demon blocking it. He's got to scatter over to the other side. It's the Arthur drone. One of the lesser used abilities of the drone is to open and shut doors. And they're actually just memeing him, blocking him in and out.

01:45:05 Und es war fast genug, es war fast genug zu bekommen.

01:45:34 Co-existing with one another in these buildings, you could expect all lot of these squads to be living up to like round four or so until that next zone collides. And doors are less, less safe than ever, Vicky. I mean, you've got seven ballistics in the lobby. Almost every single one of those will be angling to find a rampage and put it in the sling. And if you didn't know, when you pull that out, when you pull the ultimate rampage out, it will be fully charged, right? And that means it just, it...

01:45:59 Es ist ein guter Weg zu pushen. Potenziell als eine Alternative für die Krypto-EMP. Also, ein Weg zu trennen die Rotation für die Teams, die die Katalist sind. Wir werden die Katalist benutzen die Katwall. Wir können die Katalist auf den anderen Seite sehen, wo das Zone ist, in der Mitte, zwischen Monument und Fragment East.

01:46:22 It's right over the top of both of them. And you can see that teams don't really have an idea. There's about half in each side of, you know, what once was Capital City. And they're kind of split on which side the zone will be pulling and therefore where they should be playing for priority or potentially KP.

01:46:42 Ich habe einen weiteren Zonen zu bekommen. Ich denke, auch die besten IGLs werden zu holen, wenn sie eine Late-Ring-Console haben. Und das ist was Empire hat gemacht. Sie haben einen Mitglied aus dem Zonen, um zu Overlook zu bekommen, um das Ring-Console zu bekommen. Sie wollen es in einem Zonen wie dieser, wo sie wissen, dass sie nach dem Zonen gehen, auf den Zonen, auf den Eppi auf diese Bühnen. Weil, eine Late-Rotation, auf diese Bühne zu bekommen, ist, dass ihr alle von der eigenen Bühne zu bekommen.

01:47:11 So you try to find your way around this, because if it does continuously pull over to the west side, you know that there's little to no cover once you're forced to get pulled outside the streamer building. But if we think a little further reveal, we're watching Twerkaholics potentially try and rat landslide. There's not many teams around though.

01:47:31 Es ist nicht so, dass es eine VoidNexus gibt, dass sie dort campen können. Die GHS-Boom-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm-Böhm.

Allianz sichert sich Matchpoint durch strategisches Positioning

01:47:54

01:47:54 Oh, they're taking their time. Now, Unlucky gets the knock onto Riley. We also saw, I believe, NRG in the feeds also getting a knock onto Strafing Flame. Alliance closed in the gap. Empire forced to drop down from high ground. I really like this position, too, for Alliance, because they also have the information on where that next zone pool is going to be, and they want to be on the pathing that's less traveled by, less resistance for the squads that may be looking at them. Ooh, what?

01:48:20 Off the stick here too, the Arcstar is nice control over the space, it was off the tether rather, looking at GHS. Yeah, I mean we said there were other options for GHS here, but they seem to just want to go straight through Twerkaholics. They try and get the EMP off, but Floating, he's too good with it, he snipes the drone before it can even happen. Oh, but Omelix going down first and Floating getting beamed, Twerkaholics get eliminated in 19th, GHS have a little bit of time to reset with Babbo not trying to go in for the third party. They won that.

01:48:49 mit 75 less shields, by the way. That was triple blues versus triple purple. And if there is one man, one single man, who you would trust to clutch that out, it's Yulari Man. He has been dominating this tournament for GHS Boom. An absolute revelation.

01:49:07 A highlight here. Coming out on top, getting some KP. That's what's crucial in a match point finals. Having to try to obtain those 50 points first so you could feel a little comfortable. VP, get eliminated in your feed. I did see that Yanya had gotten that initial knock onto Zack Mazur. Furia also contributing to this. NRG in one of those buildings safely. Yeah, looks like that was a pretty YOLO send into the zone there, but so many teams already occupying the buildings that

01:49:37 VP just cannot find a home, cannot find a place to go. And other teams are going to struggle with that too. Vicky GHS Boom, sure they won. They won the fight, but they're going to be on the outskirts of Monument.

01:49:53 Oh, NRG, Timmy. Oh, when you come a little short, but it's fine. He doesn't get punished for this. He manages to get back safely to the rest of his squad. Yeah, I think he wanted to go to the building, but sometimes you just get caught on those streetlights and he only gets halfway. But Timmy fans, breathe a sigh of relief.

01:50:11 Oh, trying to get a little desperate here, taking over this bottom floor, but even with the Thermites, even taking on that extra pressure, they knew that it was not a good idea. They're forced to back away. Energy also having him in their line of sight too. VKG successfully holed off. I could see him.

01:50:29 17 squads still left. The comm before the storm and wait until these teams see where that next zone is pooling. Exactly. It's going towards the park. You know, if you've played the mixtape modes, there's the crane around the train station. That'll be in for a little while longer, but it's the park with the bins to the north of that train station where this zone will be ending. And that means actually there'll be a little room for teams on both sides. A little team for rooms on Fragment and some.

01:50:56 für die Teams kommen von Monument als auch. Aber das ist warum es so wichtig, dass Alkazia das Nehmen hat, weil es noch zwei Buildings gibt, weil es noch zwei Buildings gibt, um zu Leapfrog in die Zone zu Leapfrog. NRG ist gut. VKs und Alkazias nicht so viel. GHS Boom jetzt mit der Ash Portal.

01:51:16 Get up into the high ground inside this building for free. But it doesn't look like they have that next ring console information. Since they had taken their time after winning that fight like we saw against Torqueholics exiting out of Landslide. But at least they do not get circle kept in this situation. Until they see where that next zone pool is going to be. And there's no ring console for them to work off of here in Monument.

01:51:39 I mean, there's plenty of drones going around, so an interesting strat could be here if teams haven't pinged the Survey Beacon already, the one over in Fragment East. They could have waited for this zone, wait for the pull, ping the Survey Beacon, and then they'll know which buildings are possible to take. Where do you even go? I mean, at least they were able to safely barricade that door with Pinky being on the Catalyst.

01:52:05 Janya ist noch nicht hier mit der 30-30. Das ist noch ein Peek, als Atkatsia war es zu fighten. Vabo being in der Lowground. Let the Modems sing. His P2020 ist vielleicht nicht in der Hand. Mit Pricy getting set down. Really up to Player K as he goes all the way up to the Highground. VK Gaming, knowing that they're chasing that solo. 16 Squads left, he looks like he was able to get away, but Player K now having to play this out as a solo. Oh, two good games for them. Doesn't look like they'll be able to back it up with a third, unless something...

01:52:33 Very, very spicy happens, but oh my lord, the zone has pulled east, and who would it be holding out that high ground but Alliance. What a call from Alliance, and that's why they want to be able to hold a high ground. Great call on the positioning from the IGL Hockey's Kat. Tachitin's gonna be able to pop that shield bat. I was worried a little bit through the windows that that squad from across from them were able to take some shots. 100 Thieves now. Phony taking it slow.

01:53:02 in der Streamer-Building und schießt blinde durch die Catwall. Ja, das war schon gesagt, er war ziemlich verletzt von seinen Team-Maten. Er war komplett alleine in der Streamer-Building, während seine zwei Team-Maten waren zu halten S8 in der Diner und auch zu halten Home-Ground in der Train-Station, denn das ist ein guter Platz zu halten. Das wird in Nexzone sein.

01:53:25 Das ist was du, wenn du die Wraith auf dem Team bist. Sie versuchen zu scouten, versuchen zu sehen, was du kannst. Aja slides in mit der EVE-8. By the way, Gold Bolt auf das.

01:53:49 Are you smelling that? I'm sniffing a match point eligibility here from Alliance. If they convert this like they should be able to, I think 15 points is super achievable. Smells a lot of money here. Getting comfy, Falcons. 17 points, now move up. Remember, they were sitting all the way to north side, now with the zone closing in right behind them. They're looking to engage on Energy, who have been getting some Nox in the feed, but not being able to fully commit on those Nox.

01:54:19 Mit der Katwahl kommen auf, sie wissen die Energien, sie versuchen sie zu schwingen, sie versuchen sie zu schwingen, aber Walsi ist auf eine andere Angelegenheit. Hau jetzt auf die Katwahl, auf der Katwahl, auf der Katwahl, auf der Katwahl, auf der Katwahl, auf der Katwahl, auf der Katwahl, auf der Katwahl, auf der Katwahl, auf der Katwahl, auf der Katwahl, auf der Katwahl, auf der Katwahl, auf der Katwahl.

01:54:44 If anyone could clutch us out, we know we've seen it time and time again. It could be Timmy. Sends out the nade for it to play off to the other side here. It is barricaded here too. Once you get the rez on zero. What a reset. I cannot believe this from Falcons.

01:55:00 Zero just waiting here, seeing Timmy still playing off the low ground. He knows he's getting pinged by somebody else in the distance. It's about to be 3v1. Timmy has waited too long. He doesn't have time. He won't be able to get to kill. He's literally just going to throw some nades and try and get away to rap. He's trying his best to get what he needs and look how low Falcons is.

01:55:20 Oh my god, if NRG lives longer than Falcons, they are going to be filthy about it. It's a solid third party here from Furia, but Waltzy, who has been demonic this tournament, can't clutch it out. Even with that shield swap, what can you do? And it even looks like Timmy was trying to greet them. You can see the tether through the window.

01:55:49 Timmy playing as a solo off the corner. He heard the fight that just finished from inside, but he's got to start moving now that round five closes in the next five seconds. He's already won himself an extra placement point by staying alive. Let's see how many more he can get out of that. Twisted Minds currently sitting in fourth spot at 21 points.

01:56:12 Wir haben eine Peacekeeper, Alv ist für den nächsten Platz zu spielen, als die Zone in den Lava geht. Er wird über die Lava treffen und VK und Rival, die jetzt in der Zone sind. Oh, aber sie haben den Respawn, hinter Timmy. Er kann nicht aufhören, seine Priorität ist einfach zu bleiben. Mit all diesen Teams verlassen, in ihr Feet. Look how many Nuts!

01:56:33 I cannot believe this.

01:57:01 Oh mein Gott. Oh mein Gott.

01:57:31 Allianz, 8 points away from sitting at Match Point. After 3 games alone, what a performance Allianz has put on for us. At the very beginning of our Match Point Finals, Allianz just hold on to height, split this angle. We see Unlucky on the bottom, still not calling out where Timmy's positioning is, because they're focused on Green Stango and 9 Lies. Yeah, man, with 8 points.

01:57:52 N.R.G. ist desperate für jeden von diesen. Zicke hat sich über die OOP-Timer zu beschäftigen, als er findet ein paar Spots, dass sie nicht wirklich sitzen können und einfach nur mit Maze sitzen können. Oh man. Shortly, Allianz closes this out. 2 of 9 lives left, und Timmy. Mit dem Arcstar, da war nicht viel zu tun. Mit Greenstegel, die wir sehen, 9 lives holden, ist Allianz jetzt in. 3 points left.

01:58:16 Ich denke, sie werden es tun. Ich denke, Allianz wird auf Match Point für Match 4. Sie wissen, dass es noch andere Team in dieser Lobby ist, aber sie sind 9 Lies. Sie stehen noch als ein Duell. Allianz will nicht über Zealous sein, aber Allianz hat so viel KP jetzt. Timmy hat es nicht gespielt. Er ist komplett silent, das ganze Zeit. Er wird 2nd Platz.

01:58:41 Silent but deadly, but worked into the favor of NRG. Obonies had lost out on Honkies before, but now Timmy, who doesn't have a med game, who has no syringe. Alliance, with that knock, with that finishing blow, have officially hit Match Point with 50 points. Timmy drops down. He can't make miracles happen. And now Alliance, after three games, have hit Match Point. Make some noise.

01:59:20 What an incredibly smart play. What a wonderful call from Hackus. What beautiful execution from his roller duo to hold out that spot against none other than 100 Thieves.

01:59:37 I mean, the rest of the fights honestly looked like it was a walk in the park for Alliance, but that was the turning point that won them the game. Phony, his calls have been impeccable throughout the ALGS Open, and he makes the right call, but his team is the one that folds first and throws Alliance into that match point eligible status.

02:00:01 Lion's making me sweat a little bit. Spend only three games. Are you kidding me? Three different maps, as you can see, winning game number three after their performance, where they won Unbroken Moon game number one with 16kp. Now here they come waltzing in with 10kp.

02:00:21 Und das ist mit dem, die Team aus dem Highground zu bringen. Ich glaube, es war Empire, die zu bekommen haben, auf die Ring-Console zu bekommen. Sie haben Height auf der Southseite von Ebbe, bevor sie in den Weg gehen, und komplett entfernt das Rightseite von Fragment East.

Analyse der Teamleistung und Matchpoint-Dynamik

02:00:38

02:00:38 Shout out to Timmy though. Nine placement points. Oh yeah. Let's just put this in perspective. If he died right there in that fight with Falcons, they would have got one. One placement point. Eight placement points simply for ratting.

02:00:56 Hard to contest when you take a look at these stats. Unlucky with 9kp, but loving the spread out on the damage here off of that third match alone. 9kp in that third match. That's incredible. I mean, Effect gets a lot of the love out of those two as being the aggro one, the one who can get the job done. But this just shows to have a championship winning roster, to have a LAN winning roster. Of course, they haven't won a championship just yet. Just yet.

02:01:24 Ja, ich weiß nicht, es gibt viel mehr hier, Vicky, aber du musst alle auf dem Team unterstützen und das ist warum Allianz sind 55 Punkte, das ist warum der Name ist die einzige Gilded auf dem Scoreboarden. Ich muss die Stakes hervorheben. Mit Allianz sind bereits in Match Point, könnte es sich ändern für uns als wir auf eine neue Map gehen, als wir auf E-District gehen.

02:01:52 One more, one more. He says it, he feels it. Got the Alliance love for the Nessie, but just to highlight, now with teams understanding where Alliance stands as we transition now, I believe it's E-District next. That's going to be something that a lot of squads are going to wonder when it comes to these rotations. Knowing where Alliance lands with their POI draft, what can they do to keep this match point finals going?

02:02:17 It's a third round pick for them on E-District. There's no Alta. There's a lot of things to think about there. Why don't we hear what the desk has got to say as we go into our fourth game with Alliance on Matchpoint. Thank you so much, Genome and Vicky Kitty. Great call on that one. And it is time for us to take a little bit of a break and break down the action. Rain Day here, joined by Glitter Explosion. Zephyr and Graceful.

Alliance's Dominanz und Matchpoint-Szenario

02:02:41

02:02:41 Gracing us on the desk this time around. As we get to talk about after 3, where our Championship Sunday stands, big win from Alliance. Major news, they are on match point before we move past halftime. Lauren, that's normally not something we get to say. This is where teams are usually messing up on our expectations or over-exceeding. Well, this is a team we know can get the job done. They've come to play, and it's a scary proposition that one more win throughout the entirety of today for Alliance, and this tournament's over.

02:03:11 Ja, auf alle Teams zu enden auf Match Point bereits nach drei Matches. Wenn ich den Rest in der Lobby wäre, würde ich meine Augen auf. Es ist mir, wenn ich sie vorhin gesagt habe, dass Broken Moon eine von den Mappen war, ist es eine der Mappen. Wir kommen aus der Gate und sie tun was sie zu tun. Right away, sie fixen die Probleme. Ja, und diese Mappen in diese Weise ist anders. Es ist neu. 1, 2, 3, 4. Wir sind nicht viel Konsistenz. So die Teams haben die Konsistenz, richtig? Especially mit den Legend Bands. Das hat kind of been die Thema für dieses Tournament, besonders mit den ALG.

02:03:40 Let's take a look at those final circles and have our analysts break them down for us. Graciel, I'm going to start with you because you picked Alliance to do well. You're feeling real good sitting there in that corner. I'm feeling really good and even seeing this zone play out completely. They played all the way from the E side, ended up on top of the building. They've been nothing short but really on the same page. And the point that I want to highlight the most is the absolute last part of this entirety of the montage is that...

02:04:06 Sie kamen zu einem 2v1 und kamen zu einem 2v1 und kamen. In der Fall, jemand hat Haukes und sagte, hey, du solltest das Armour machen. Er ist noch so disciplined, an dieser Stelle zu sagen, ich werde einen Entire Bad machen, um ich nicht nur einen Insch zu geben, um das Chance zu machen, dass er das 1v2 hat. Und zu sehen, dass diese Presence der Meinung in die Final-Final ist verrückt, weil diese Double-Swingen hier in ein 2v1 ist, Haukes wird absolut schrägert.

02:04:35 Ja, absolut. Und das war ein Thema Heated Discussion in the Green Room, während wir die Final Circle Moments waren.

02:05:04 Based off of some positioning. And then the choice is going alongside those positioning. This was a big fight right there for GHS Boom. Able to clear out a heavy hitter in the lobby. But as the zone...

02:05:15 Und dann ist es in der finalen Kampf zwischen Twisted Minds und GHS.

02:05:44 Aber du hast den Rat, Taxington, Oncat, den Baiten Albreleli aus der Position, für GHS-Boom zu wirklich verändern, verändern ihre Position ein bisschen und absoluten Decimate Twisted Minds. Ja. Ich erzähle dir was, es war ein guter Klingel, aber ultimately GHS-Boom war es gut von der anderen Seite.

02:06:05 Nice capitalization, I'll say, of Alcatia in a moment where they knew they were weak. Touch on that EMP, of course. But for match three, this is where we get a little bit of a deja vu scenario. Fragment can always be one of those stacked zones, especially with these major exits out from the buildings early in zone three into four. And then with this highlight, of course, towards that crane there, there's not a lot of playable space. Alliance had done such a great job clearing out this eastern side, notably against 100 Thieves, who we do not showcase in this.

02:06:34 Ich liebe die Utilisation der Aschport, um zu hochgradieren und zu completely deny any kind of Reset oder Alternative Position, especially around this Fenceline, wo man ein bisschen mehr Sicherheit hat, um die Difference zu crossieren. Sie nicht allow es. Komm in, Kapitalize, send Nine Lies home. Und Timmy, du hast du credit, wo es ist. After some poor Survivability out towards Fragment, hat er managed to rat this one all the way to

02:07:04 Das ist schwierig für Timmy. Ja, der Coach, der Longtime Player, war an Iteration einer dieser Team in Polen, jetzt in Polen.

02:07:18 zu einem Potenzial Match Point. Finals, das ist ein bisschen ein Breakdown von wie gut wir sehen Unlucky dominieren. Someone hat gesagt, dass Effect immer in dieser Rolle ist, aber vielleicht ist das Team einfach finden, wo sie best best sind und es lässt Unlucky sein. Und Effect...

02:07:38 Doing a traditionally amazing job in that secondary position while Hockey controls the narrative of where they go. 15 assists. That's a really, really good share of all of the action going on there. Again, Alliance doing incredibly well already on match point. NRG starting to wake up. Alcaccia, Envy, Twisted Minds getting into final zones quite often but not able to really capitalize. And GHS, boom.

02:08:02 Showing a little bit of support for obviously our Apex side. Will that continue? However, right now we realize that you are watching whether you're in the venue or at home or at a different time zone. Whether you're tired, whether it's morning or night, you're doing it because you love Apex Legends. Because we're all community here, we're all family. In fact, when you get to come to these lands, there's a special opportunity to see the family that is involved in making this community so special. Lace is standing by with two very special members.

02:08:30 Thank you so much, Ray. This is literally my favourite part of the event, is getting in the crowd and seeing exactly how everybody is feeling. Now, I have probably one of the biggest Phoney fans sitting right next to me, or standing, I should say. This is Phoney's sister, and it's a pleasure to have you here with us. Now, I'm clearly not going to ask what team you're going for, but you know what? You and how many other people of the family are here? There are six of us here today.

02:08:56 At home, there's nine. Well, four more, but it's nine of us in total. Yeah, that could almost fill a whole entire stadium. Now, obviously, you're the sister of Phony. Is there any, like, sibling rivalries you could fill us in growing up? Yeah, we kind of fight on who's taller than the other, and I'm actually the taller one, so... But he doesn't want to believe it, but that's what we fight about.

02:09:16 You hear that phony, okay? Grow up. No, thank you so much for chatting to us. And of course, go sit down, cheer on 100 Thieves. I'm sure Papa Jen is going to start a chant very soon, but appreciate you for that.

Familienunterstützung im eSports

02:09:30

02:09:30 Now, it's an absolute pleasure to be able to talk to the family members of the crowd and, of course, the talent. I have Vicky Kitty's mum standing next to me. Now, this is your first event that you have ever attended. Is it what you expected? It is more than I expected. It's wonderful. It gets a little bit crazy in here, most definitely. Now, when Vicky told you that she wanted to pursue a career in esports, what was your initial reaction?

02:10:00 Ich wusste immer, dass sie wunderbar mit der Sprache und sehr passionate war. Ich habe noch nie zu 100% lieben Video-Games, muss ich sagen. Aber sie ist wirklich passionate, und sie ist immer sehr talkative und sehr gut. Sie ist in der richtigen Fälle, und ich bin sehr stolz von ihr. Es macht Sinn. Sie ist uns jetzt gerade jetzt.

02:10:28 Is there something you'd like to say to her? I want you to stare nice into the camera and let us know. Well, I know she was a little nervous for me to come out here and watch her, but I am extremely proud of her and I always knew that she would excel at this. So I'm very happy to be here and it makes me very happy to be here because I know she absolutely loves this. So I'm, you know, 100% backing her up.

02:10:52 And we love you too, Vicky. Back over to you. How do you feel about that? I didn't expect to be this such, honestly. It's great. I'm so happy that we are in an ecosystem where there's so much support from the families of our players. My mom being here, it's an honor to be able to do this in front of you, mom, in front of my family. I'm so happy you guys are here. And I'm so happy we get to deliver the best experience here in the ALGS Open.

02:11:27 Crowd's getting into it today. It is easily the most full the arena has been in the ALGS Open. Just uh, take some time. I didn't know we were on camera. Sneaky cut back there. You know what we can both be happy about though, Vicky? Going back to the first part of the interview is that we're both taller than our siblings.

02:11:51 You know what? Isn't that a fun time? That is actually true. And I can't say that very often. So, you know, I'll take that dub. I'll take that dub for now. But you know who else is running away with the dub at the moment? Can they hold it? It's Alliance. Kind of seems like they can. I'm not gonna lie. They have just looked so fresh in every single game so far. I mean, damn, putting so many points on the board. I've only had...

02:12:17 So far like what even I don't know that might be the earliest match point eligibility we've ever had at LAN usually you're hitting it somewhere around maybe like game five Maybe game six like we did have that close call with NRG

02:12:36 Ich denke, es war ein bisschen weiter, wo Optik saß der Tag. Oh, ja, das war, glaube ich, Sweden. Man, du hast mich zurückgebracht. Du wißt du, was passiert in einer Situation wie dieser, die man nicht hier sehen kann, weil die verschiedenen Regeln wir in den LGS implementieren. In einer Situation wie dieser, ich glaube NRG und NRG waren ein paar Team rocking Aloba. Es war ein Final Zone Pool, close zu Sniper Tower, auf der anderen Seite des Trials, auf World's Edge. Und das war der Indikator, dass ein

02:13:05 Vielen Dank für's Zuschauen!

02:13:34 ...on the fridge, and it's beautiful moments like this, Genome, that we get to really highlight how involved our Respawn Dev Team is when it comes to putting their heart and soul onto a map like E-District. Sometimes it's, uh, it's...

02:13:52 Hard to take a moment and look around when you're looting at 100 mph. But yeah, it is incredible how much work actually goes into creating each and every one of our maps that we've got more than ever here at an ALGS LAN. And this is it. We're gonna be on the final one that you'll see today. E-District for Match 4. The way it works...

02:14:14 We're snaking back and forth, so Match 5 will also be E-District, and then we'll start heading back towards where we started out in Broken Moon.

Strategische Spielanalyse und Teamdynamiken

02:14:29

02:14:29 Now looking at our teams that understand the situation at hand. What a gap. Alliance has put themselves in between the rest of this lobby. With this zone pulling over to the north side by City Hall. It gives me a little bit of deja vu. I gotta give a special shout out to my homegirl watching at home, Spider Tiff. Whenever we get to cast together, we see very similar zones and this is actually...

02:14:58 The third time I've seen a zone like this, two of the times that we've seen a zone like this, together when we were on the mic, we were together looking at E-District. So, City Hall, Northern Pool, as we can see here, benefits the likes of Twisted Minds, who are going to be playing Objective by the Evil Harvester on their rotate. Shopify, that do have a ring console, over by Boardwalk. Ready? Starting off the action early, though. Before we cut off, Timmy was on the wraith there beforehand. Gonna be able to phase away in Torkaholics.

02:15:27 Ja, Tworkaholics staring down, laying a trap outside that Evo Harvester down near Shipyard Arcade. We all know they're not the team you want to run into early, they're not going to give you a free pass.

02:15:42 Twisted Minds, also coming up against Shopify Rebellion here. This is closer to City Hall and where the zone might be heading. Not exactly there, but it looks like these teams, or at least one of them, was probably trying to rotate in towards that City Hall position. And now, all of a sudden, they've got a little stuck. And it's harder. It's harder without the altar to make these rotations. That's why so many teams have been picking up the Wraith here in Game 4.

02:16:14 Twerkaholics were babysitting that Evil Harvester, and NRG desperately wanted to try to get that, because being on the edge of this zone means if they still hold their position over by Viaduct, they prevent Twerkaholics from maybe trying to rotate from their side through that choke, getting information themselves or trying to cut off NRG. So they're going to be wrapping around north side of Shipyard, looking at NRG on the edge of that zone.

02:16:39 Mit bereits so vielen Spazen in der Neck-Zone selbst. Falken sind jetzt hier auch. Hau verliert auf den Shield. Halb-Health wird es sicherlich zurückgegangen. Thanks to Zero, placing das Wraith-Portal. Sie sind jetzt auf SR-Näu. SR-Näu ist jetzt nicht so weit. SR-Näu ist jetzt nicht so weit. Sie sind wirklich für ein Platz zu kommen. Und überall sind sie, die Auction-Hammel haben bereits zu kommen. Und es ist schon so weit zu jemanden.

02:17:07 Twerkaholics, nur auf 4 Punkte. Remember, sie öffnet es mit einem Squad Wipe, aber wir haben nicht gesehen von ihnen, seitdem. Das ist schon immer der Habit, für Twerkaholics. Wir wissen, dass es ein Frag-heavy Team ist. Wir haben sie klatschen, und haben sie in eine gewisse Position zu gewinnen, aber können sie es in eine Match Point Format, wie das? Wo du musst, die dub nach der ersten 50 Punkte getrennt, in diesen Games. Okay?

02:17:35 Gonna be able to get a quick little 88 here. It's gonna look like before he rotates to get the Evo Harvester. Remember, we saw them on that passing. They do have that blue Evo shield, but getting it even closer to try to get to that purple. Yeah, because they're landing next to each other at Shipyard Arcade and Viaduct, the zone is north, and that means they're essentially following the same path. They're identifying the same Evo Harvesters and wanting to go after them. Okay, unintentional. Furia, though.

02:18:04 Back away. They'll get hit with their own nade. Keon incredibly low, though, before he takes the Wraith Portal, Furia. Who we're trying to push onto VK Gaming, who now have the high ground and the health advantage. Oh, but there's another team in the distance. You see the pings. Great timing. And they are one of the teams on the Valkyrie as well. So with a quick reposition opportunity, they get right back to the building that they were holding.

Legendenauswahl und Teamstrategien

02:18:28

02:18:28 Kind of crazy the Catalyst is still in at this point. I mean, it's been such an early Legend Band. Just imagine what this would be like without Alter and without Catalyst. Who knows? Actually, no, we won't see it next game because I think it's Crypto and Rape that are tied with the most pick. So it will be one of those Band out.

02:18:44 But if you think about how teams generally move around this City Hall in the other end zones that we've seen so far in this tournament, Vicky, it's primarily been by alter queues. They use those to just find a little nook or cranny inside the buildings, and without that you have to cross big open distances like this, and all the teams inside will be grabbing those scouts out and just shooting you down on the way. It's going to be, for late rotating teams, this is going to be particularly tough.

02:19:13 Das ist toll, mit Alter Nutt zu sein, und zu erbauen, dass das Komfort-pick für viele Teams, die sie excelten auf E-District sind, wo sie eigentlich die Best-Map ist. Die Twerkaholik, die NrG zu sehen, hat die NrG zu sehen, aber mit der Mischung auf den Mirage geht, aber mit der Mischung auf den Mirage geht, und bei der Mischung auf den Mirage geht, Yanya wird auch getötet, und die Twerkaholik, die NrG zu sehen, dass sie nach NrG zu sehen, sie wieder nach NrG zu sehen.

02:19:42 Rival eSports wird sie wieder zurück und Twerkaholics wird jetzt ein Reset geben. No 3rd Party in der Vecinity. Und das ist sie, dass sie alle zusammengegangen sind. Wir haben sie durch Vyaduk, jetzt sind sie hier bei Street Market, wo sie eine Ring-Console haben. Ja, als wir gesagt haben, sie waren einfach folgern, oder eher Twerkaholics folgern, NRG´s folgern. Und das war so lange. Okay, GHS!

02:20:16 This is what you can expect GHS. Keep the dream alive here for our mat point finals. Furia looking on after being able to reset, count their blessings. They knew that there was a third party in the vicinity that prevented VKG from actually pushing them.

02:20:33 Ich fühle mich sogar die Allianz-Fans in der Crowd sagen, wir wollen sie zu gewinnen, aber vielleicht nicht mehr. Komm schon, gib uns ein paar mehr Games, als wir hier sitzen haben. Ja, ich bin ein thumbs-up, lotss of nods. Sie reagieren. Du wisst wie ich, Juno. Ich werde nie complain. Ich will complain, dass Solo-Speech-20-Shots missing out ist, aber er wurde das Knochen. Knochen für Knochen. Knochen für Knochen. Knochen für Knochen. Knochen für Knochen. Knochen für Knochen. Knochen für Knochen.

02:21:00 Adam's low trying to cover his back for chasing it down Lully now trying to find his blow and Babbo get eliminated cats have put on such a performance throughout the course of this tournament Even Babbo one of our teams who come in from the challenges circuit here Incredible effort to make it to our match point finals but struggling to find their footing on the biggest stage that Apex has to offer

Endgame-Strategien und Team-Positionierung

02:21:32

02:21:32 Twisted Minds. One of the teams with the Crypto. Getting information. Squads that may be coming and rotating through the choke that they're currently looking at. This is gonna be a fascinating endgame, Vicky. We've got a few Bangalores in here, we've got a few Watsons, but we don't have Newcastle and we don't have Alta. And it's gonna be one of those canal finishes and there's just no cover in there, right?

02:21:58 Es fühlt sich so, wenn du nicht die Bangalore oder die Watschen hast, du hast die hardest Zeit. Du hast einfach alles zu voll senden, weil es gibt, weil du einfach nicht mehr Platz hast. Und hier ist Green Stego, die Team zu rocken die Valkyrie. Sie haben die Purple Perk, die Valkyrie gibt, um die Begründung durch die Gebäude zu holen. So die Hail Mary finden, dann finden sie ein Platz. Nach einer anderen Team, Nine Lieson, in die Catwall.

02:22:25 Not too bad, getting a little help from the old teammates on you.

02:23:02 Ja, ich weiß nicht.

02:23:31 Taste of where the next ring's going. Falcons up the top. They love a northern pool. And it is. It's pretty close to them. I think there's a fence line just in front of the Falcons that they're going to be very happy to play. Also, with Green Steger holding the big building that comes out of Resort, they'll have a lot of space to play with for quite some time. That said...

02:23:52 Remember, they're running the Valkyrie. That gives them a lot less defensive options. They have to play big. They need to make sure they've got enough ammo to keep people at bay, because they don't have the abilities to do it. Exactly. Pepper in the pressure with the Fuse. Your positioning ability with the Valkyrie. Falcons are also in a pretty good position if they completely hold off Green Stego, because they have a much more aggressive composition here.

02:24:18 Over to the north side. Also making sure that other teams don't walk in for free from the east side of where that next zone pool is for the squads that may have that circle beacon information. Risky Mythic being down the bottom as well. S8 and Furia are quite close to it, but you know without a mobile shield to hide behind and a lot of angles with other teams around you that could be a tough one to pick up. Envy, they're a little more north of that position.

02:24:45 Even VKG, we see LD getting knocked.

02:24:53 Das ist weiter nach Green Stego. So, sie sind tatsächlich zu nehmen, aus dem Resort-Bilding, das wir hatten. Meanwhile, Kat Portaling. S8, sie spielen die Dish. Ich weiß nicht, dass ich immer da, das ist, wo die Giga-Loot ist. In City Hall. Manchmal ist es ein bisschen nervös, weil wenn man so viele andere Angler kann, dass man sich nicht mehr aufnehmen kann.

02:25:22 Und das ist einfach etwas zu tun. Verholz bekommt das Knocht. Torquaholic ist jetzt nicht auf der Mirage. Und das ist einfach etwas zu passieren. Sie bleiben es zu late, zu versuchen, ihre Rotation in die Zone zu machen. Und als resultierst, sie werden einen von ihren Mitgliedern verloren. Vielleicht gibt es eine Chance. Da ist ein Crafter ahead von ihnen. Vielleicht können sie ihn zurückgehen. Wir haben vieles zu sehen.

02:25:46 Absolutely, aber man sieht die Pings, man sieht GHS und GHS sieht sie auch mit der Krypto-Drone. Wo kann man run? Twerkaholics sind keine Ahnung, woher zu gehen, als sie geteilt werden. Das ist eine gute Lehre. Wenn du voll sendest, voll sendest du voll sendest, bevor du 50-Zone-Damage auf die Team-Member hast, machen die Decision early, wenn es eine Ugly-Decision ist. Desperate Times call für desperate measures für ein Team, wie Twerkaholics. Der Plethora von Nades in der Distanz, 100 Thiefs mit der Pings.

02:26:18 Seeing that drill from GHS. I believe one of the only teams running the Mad Maggie by the way here in this lobby.

02:26:27 Ex-Duvie ist öppet der Shop. Der Schöpfe ist öppet, aber er sagt, dass sie mit den Batschen sind. Ich meine, wenn Torquaholics kommt und ihr ihr Death Boxen und eine Silber Plattern ist, dann geht das, richtig? Jetzt DHS ist die Lüte, um es zu sehen. Also, Profil Ephyria ist auch auf den Führer. Sie sehen, was sie zu sehen, was sie haben zu tun, was sie zu holen. Ich bin mit dir.

02:26:55 Hey, he's right down here. You gotta peek low. I'm shooting this mag. Yeah, I'm killing him. I'm killing him. I'm killing him. You can play down on the shops if you need. It's only one guy. It's only one guy. You guys can push it. You guys can push it. I'll push him. He's in the hallway here. I'm giving you Fizz. I'm giving you Fizz. I'm not in a room. There's going to be one of the shops. Follow me up. Follow me up. Okay, I'm coming. He's not in here. Not in here. Not in here. I need to get the Fizz. You need to make sure you're safe. Other team. Other team. Other team. Other team. No. Just run. Play your life. Play your life. Play your life.

02:27:27 You maybe get banner, I don't know. I'm playing my life, I'm playing my life. They're evacking. Batting? They're evacking, it's fine.

02:27:38 Mit der Desperate attempten zu finden das Solo-Lehrer, sie werden von einem anderen Team getrennt. Sie hören FURIA, mit der comms, zu spielen, ihre Leben zu spielen. Die Rejoinung zusammen mit dem Duell, aber in der Prozess, sie verloren auf Keion. Ihr Ironman geht dann, so FURIA hat die KP vor dem 4. Run in die 4. Ring.

02:28:05 ...having to go into the void just to try and make it over the line. The ring is chasing him down and by the looks of it, so is 100 Thieves. Jen Burton grabs the knock and the kill onto Madness.

02:28:18 Teams are playing a little bit more desperate here. Ten squads left. EMP Motherloads galore. 100 Thieves having the high ground. Looking at S8 UL. Okazia also on the other side. Envy though directly in the middle of this zone. Strafing Flame not able to live up to his name there. Going down to the Motherload. And we've got Pricey trying to hold this off. But I think the pressure from 100 Thieves is going to be way too much for them.

02:28:44 Maybe get the Extinguisher or you'll find yourself envious out here. Lookit! Chin actually playing that very hesitantly. Yeah, especially with the way that now I can see it's forced to play off the lowgrounds. Looking up on 100 Thieves who are just gonna keep holding it down up here. They eventually will have to move up. S8 now with the Wraith Portal have found themselves in the edge of that next zone pool. But these teams have to start moving in the next 30 seconds. Yeah, it's a solid spot from Envy that we saw. Unlike when you've got Ultra in the mix, you don't have to worry about teams.

02:29:14 Oh, okay

02:29:40 Strafing ist in mit der E-Var, E-Z-Shots onto S! A for two of them are down! Player K gets the Armour Swamp, has to instantly go for the rest. Surely someone's noticed that there's enough damage down here. Nice work by Falcons and 100 Thieves combining to take out Envy on the top of this bridge. They're fighting for Godspot right now.

02:30:04 Haukatsia get taken out, and they had a good amount of KP'd themselves. Now that Falcons have held the high ground, looking at the fact that Pertholz are neighboring them. 100 Thieves playing right behind them, but do they want to voice on this? But now it's Grinstego on the back. They try and make a sandwich out of Falcons, but they're not good enough to do it. Falcons getting ahead of themselves, now playing on the slight low ground. Look back up at 100 Thieves. They have to pressure them here, while Zero is going to reset. So does Haukatsia. Zero's trying to hold their different angle. Jend, get...

02:30:34 3, 2, 1 mit Hilfe, HAL wird die Knochen, Falcons geteilt werden, sie geteilt werden von einem anderen Team in der Distanz.

02:30:58 Mit 100 Thiefs Unlimited in den letzten zwei Schwads, Empire, Shopify, Rebellion und Empire haben die Heite genommen.

02:31:09 Spiel auf die Positional Advantage, das letzte Zone ist in den nächsten 20 Sekunden. 20 Sekunden left auf dem Tempest, es wird raus aus von Empire, und sie werden nicht mehr haben, wenn Shoppfei es weitergeht. Sie haben eine Katwall-Wall. Das heißt, sie müssen sie aufhören, mit Rampage auf der Slinge. Koipf bereits öffnet, als die Entry-Fragger wird, das Initial-Knock. Shoppfei, sie haben mehr Feuer-Power, aber Empire haben die High-Ground. Zainu-Dies geht auf die Zip.

02:31:37 Das war's für SR. Aber sie waren zu isolieren. Wir sahen sie mit dem Katwahl ab. Schopify nicht hat sich die Katwahl ab. Koi-Fold hat es zu kommen. Es ist Spikes, mit dem Pressure. Und Schopify... ...together! Sie nehmen die Spiel hier auf E-District.

02:31:57 This skyrockets them here too, to I believe 39 points. We saw them playing that patiently there. All the way up to second place, as you say, patiently. And as we noted, the Tempest was running out. It was a rough spot for Empire if they didn't finish them off there and then. I think the other thing we really need to note though, Vicky, is that high ground to low ground disparity was ridiculous there.

02:32:23 I don't think Shopify should have been able to win it from that position. I mean, you saw he was standing... Was that a PK in the hands of Empire? Literally staring down a zipline, choked up PK. That should be two shots for a hundred and see you later. What's even more incredible is the fact that Shopify had navigated around Empire having the cat.

02:32:44 Empire waited till the end to put up the Catwall to try to isolate that fight, but not only that, they had the Piercing Spikes to create that space. Understanding that the Tempest was running out, as you say, Genome, they had to try to take full advantage of that, having that Rampage charged up being on the Ballistic.

02:33:01 19 points picked up for Shopify. Empire, look, they fall over at the last hurdle, but they can't be unhappy with 18 points added to their tally. 100 Thieves pick up 13 and Falcons have been consistent ever since they dropped down in that second round in the winner's bracket. It's been go, go, go for the Falcons and they keep themselves in the running for now.

02:33:32 Gotta keep it going now. As we get to see the head-to-head of our top two teams after game number four. Not only getting first place, but putting on the KP. Empire doing it with the Ballistic. Nine KP to their name.

02:33:50 3.2 damage coming, 3.2 cake damage coming out for Shopify there. But it was honestly a pretty even spread of kills. No one was super popping off there. It wasn't like the first game where we saw Alliance get, I think it was 6-5 and 5 kills between the team. This was a much harder zone to play towards the end. So this is what we want to see. The series results to see how much these teams just bump themselves up. No one is...

02:34:17 Still coming anywhere close to Alliance, who are the only team remaining on Match Point. But with Essar on 39 and Alkazia on 38, they are getting up there. If they have another one of those performances in Match 5, we'll see them join Alliance on Match Point.

02:34:37 It's just the fact that after four games alone, aside from Alliance, you know, separating themselves from the rest of the pack, it's how tight the rest of the competition looks like for our teams that are just a point or two away from one another. As we swap map after map, they got to keep up that consistency. We got more match point finals coming to you guys soon. Game number five on E-District on the other side of this break.

02:37:06 Ja, ja, ja.

02:37:30 Oh, no, no. Oh, he didn't rest, he didn't rest, he did not rest. I'm resting, I'm resting. Can you drop, can you drop, can you drop? Come out of here now. I'm resting, resting, resting. We need to go up, we have to go up. Can you go up there, can you go together? Yes, yes, yes, yes. Good shit, bro.

Legend Bans und Matchpoint-Szenarien

02:38:47

02:38:47 They're not quite there, and there is still only one squad on Matchpoint, and that is still Alliance. Well, here's your Legend Bands as we head into the next match. No Ashe, no Alter, no Crypto, and no Newcastle. Now, we stay on E-District here as we begin our snake back through the map selection that we do have, and into Gamefoot No. 5. Like you say, only the one team still on Matchpoint, but there's a couple of them now.

02:39:13 Like Supplefire Rebellion, like GHS, who might be thinking with a win here, we could be joining them. Certainly when you look at E-District and you look at Alliance, for example, they've only been able to find one victory all tournament long on this map. So it wouldn't surprise me if we do go that one step further. But at the same time, you think back to Champs in Japan, how close Alliance were to winning the whole darn thing on this map. All they need is one good zone.

02:39:39 One easier rotation. It was a tough old journey for them in the previous game. They took a fight, sadly didn't come out on top. But now they still have the opportunity as the only team on Matchpoint. One thing I do like about Alliance, never afraid to take that fight though. Even if it's early on in the game, they believe in themselves, they will take it. And if they win it, we're talking maybe about a different end to that game. But the end of that game belongs to Shopify Rebellion. Now they find themselves just 11 points away from hitting Matchpoint.

02:40:08 Still plenty of opportunity for teams to catch up as well and get to match point Eligibility as we start to see some early fights here. Fabo vs. Kat. I mean this one's taking place almost immediately. Humbert Labs vs. Oldtown essentially. Two POIs that are very very close to each other. As is indicated by the fact that both teams are next to each other having this fight. Nobody is going to be knocked for now. And it looks like a momentary truce may have been drawn up. But as I say, it's about momentarily.

02:40:34 Disagreed, as you can say, because Calamitous will get that knock with a scout. And now you've got the advantage as well. And I wonder whether Babo is going to try and back off. No, it looks like they're going to try and take the fight. At least one of them is. Evens things up here. And actually, you take a lead. He's going to use that knockdown just to pop a couple of shield cells.

02:40:56 All of a sudden, this one gets a little bit more awkward. And they pop the Tempest as well. Pinky is going to go for that res to get them back to a full complement of three. And I think Igarasi is going to try and stop and deny that on the other side. He's going to get around this corner. He's going to find one. And that is Kat eliminated. Bama will win that one. Yeah, Kat unable to put more points on the board then when it comes to E-District. Now teams who will be looking to point put...

02:41:18 auf der Board, die haben alle Tournament lang gemacht. Twerkaholics und FURIA, aufgeregt 13 und 11 Punkte, zwischen den beiden beiden. Sie sind definitiv die großen Spiel hier zu versuchen, die Giants der Allianz zu holen. Wenn Sie sich über die Giants der Allianz über die Giants der Allianz beherrschen, sie sind in der Street Market. Und wenn wir auf die Zone sehen...

02:41:40 Doesn't seem like it's too far for them to go here. Looks like we'll pull it up towards Neon Square. And for Alliance, who do have a ring console here as well, at Street Market, that will feel a lot more comfortable. Of course, Alliance, the first team to be Matchpoint eligible. And the last time we had a team that hit Matchpoint eligibility first, and then went on to win the lobby, was Reignite three years ago. Since then, that first team who hits it only...

02:42:09 Die Twerkaholik sind jetzt auf die Twerkaholik. Sie haben langsam, aber sicherlich und sicherlich bekommen, wie wir von den Fans hören können.

02:42:28 Looking to take a little bit of fight. Look at the top right of your screen though. QAD just got a knock onto Alliance. Alliance look like they might be able to reset this because Alcantia have left this fight. Unlucky is going to go back and try and get this banner through the portal. But is he going to be ambushed here? Can he grab it and get back in?

02:42:52 just about he's in he's out he shakes it all about an alliance look like they are gonna be able to be okay reset here and there's still a chance for them to win this one but of course slows down everything in their process speaking of slowing things down one team that doesn't know how to slow things down and loves to shake it about the twerkaholics have taken down two members of babo pinkies out there though he should be able to get far enough away here to at least survive and think about two teammates back into the game he's headed towards stadium where there is gonna be a crafter

02:43:21 Es ist natürlich wert, dass Alliance knowe wie ein LAN, nicht an ALGS LAN, aber sie haben einen internationalen Wettbewerb. Und ich würde sie lieben, dass eine ALGS-Trofe zu dieser Kabinett ist. Aber es fühlt sich, dass es noch ein langer Weg zu gehen ist, obwohl sie die einzige Team dabei sind. Sie wissen, wie schwer es ist, diese Games zu conferieren.

02:43:49 Ich würde sagen, Allianz ist also nicht so, dass es nicht so gut geht. Greenstegger in our feed. Great shots from the EVA! ASIA! Wow!

02:44:00 ...makes this fight a little bit more awkward for VP. VP will manage to make it a 2v1, but look how low Zack Mazur is. The shield swap should be enough for him to at least be a part of this fight. And Zicky says, you know what, no time for me to be here any much longer. I'm going to hit the Valcult, try and escape. But here comes our VP, still down to 2, MT, can't quite connect, finally does, and VP...

02:44:21 Will be eliminated. Shop of Fire Rebellion with a beautiful third party. Nothing quite gives me anxiety like hip firing a scout. Every single time I'm like please just scope in or pull out something else. But eventually does connect and MT almost went down there but looks like we'll be able to reset as we check in with Falcons. Falcons by the way on 30 points. It hasn't been flashy from them so far. It hasn't been dominant but...

02:44:46 They put themselves in a position here where a win and some KP would put them on match point as well. And for the run that they've been on and all they've had to overcome in the last few days, consistency is something that I think they would take at this point. Zero with that scout in his hands and for my money, one of the best players with that scout in his hands. Can't find any targets for now. Now we move over to NRG who have had a very quiet start to this set. Yeah, they've really struggled as of thus far. The Green Stag will get eliminated in the kill feed.

02:45:16 NRG alive as a 2 right now, but now he's got to push and get aggressive, and GHS Boom will be eliminated, so NRG live to fight at least another few moments here, unless they get pushed, but it looks like they're going to be alright. Should be able to get the rares, so Alcaldea again, who are just overextending, trying to see if they can pick up a couple of those KP, which they managed to do. Envy, who had, remember in the game number one, looked very, very dead certain to potentially win that game, didn't manage to convert, game 2 a very good position as well, weren't able to convert, and...

02:45:43 We'll have to see if that's going to be an ongoing theme for this trio, or if they're going to be able to find a little bit that's been missing in those endgames. It's going to be very interesting here in the southwest, because remember, Alliance are kind of in this area. They're just a little bit further south, down towards Street Market. They're dropped location. And people want ring consoles. People want this third beat console information here, because I think this is a harder zone to read than maybe some others. Oh, Alliance. There you go. Back up to three.

02:46:12 Only the one times here for Hackis, but it's enough for him to still hit a couple of shots with that 30-30 on the team. He's trying to rotate in front of them. It's going to be Furia, who are close enough to them. The only team that are here at Street Market.

02:46:25 Momentary Bamboozle hier, weil der Sling Weapon wird rausgekommen. Die Schuss kommen in von Unlucky, mit dem R99 nicht mehr. Ja, beide Teams waren zu versuchen, diese Ring-Console zu versuchen, und der Winner von diesem Battle zu bekommen wird, mit extra Informationen zu bekommen. Und Allianz haben die Vorteile mit Notgetting-Kochten. Ja, sie werden hier Scatter hier, Fury Assault, both Madness. Und Kion ist in verschiedene Direktionen, um zu versuchen, zu versuchen, von diesem Kampf zu versuchen, aber Kion, auch wenn er heilt...

02:46:49 Es wird auch ein Kühlschrank, aber auch ein Kühlschrank. Sie müssen das Kühlschrank bekommen. Und das wird auch ein Kühlschrank für Allianz. Aber der Punkt ist, so zu spät, für Allianz ist nicht der Hauptsache. Es ist alles um den Wunsch zu bekommen. Twerkaholics ist es, um den Resten zu bekommen. Oh, Babo! Aber er hat sich auf seine eigene Kühlschrank, weil er noch mehr hat. Er hat sich noch ein Kühlschrank, aber er hat sich noch nicht. Twerkaholics hat Eliminatet, Babo hat sich noch ein Kühlschrank. Twerkaholics hat sich noch ein Kühlschrank.

02:47:17 Bappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappappapp

02:47:35 Down on that southwest zone, like you were saying, down the southwest side. And I agree with you, this is very interesting, this side of the zone, because we are going to pull up a little bit further north from where NRG, Falcons, Alcazia all find themselves at the moment. And of course, Envy. There's four teams in this very, very tight space. Well, with Alliance taking down Furia, they do get the ring console down at Street Market, so that will give them a better idea of where they need to move to.

02:48:03 Of course, there is a Survey Beacon down there as well, if they would like to use that just to get a little bit more information of how they want to rotate. But Alcazia, Falcons, NRG, Envy, they all have to move as Furia will get the respawn onto Noct and Kion. So they're still very much in this one as well.

02:48:19 So start to close here and it might be a Somewhat of a surprise to the likes of our cats here on our screen when they see that zone pop up and where they will have to be going Are you looking at the rotational legends now in the compositions? How do you get to this next zone one thing that Falcons do have is zero on the right?

Teamstrategien und Matchpoint-Dynamik

02:48:38

02:48:38 Ballistik, by the way, an 80% pick rate in this Lobby, 16 Ballistiks. That means we won't see Ballistik in Match 6 if we get there. Of course, Alliance will be looking to try and wrap this one up and hoist that trophy.

02:48:54 But it is a long journey for them. Not only do they have to kind of get through this choke towards where the zone is going to be going, but there's so many teams that are already in that square. Shopify Rebellion on top of Blossom as well. All the good positions to hold for this circle have kind of been taken already. Well, here is the rotate. You can see Hack is trying to get a portal down, but he's going to be under pressure, so that portal doesn't look great.

02:49:16 für Allianz. Sie werden sicher sein, natürlich, wenn die Zone close ist, aber es ist über das nächste Zone. Das ist wirklich das nächste Zone. Das ist also ein Mythic Bin, das wird späuchern, auf der Souten Seite sein, welches interessiert ein paar mehr Teams. Ja, Empire sind die Closest zu es, und eigentlich Falcons, wenn sie starten zu gehen, als auch. Lock just got one on, two Allianz. Once again, by the way, es Hackett, die zu gehen, und jetzt sind sie zu gehen.

02:49:39 Well, well, well. Effect is down. Unlucky is trying to escape. But can he escape? That's the question. Alliance have been through it all in this game. But they're still alive somehow. And now, oh, look at this. It's Babbo coming in for their fourth fight in the game. Babbo decide, you know what? We don't like being in last place. Let's start to take the fight to some of these teams. Pinky's taking a lot of damage, though. Gonna have to back off behind that truck. And Furia, their days might be numbered.

02:50:06 Iglesiasi ist jetzt auf die Rampage. Die Opfer ist hier von Kiong zu versuchen, aber der 30-30 wird getrennt. Der 30-30 wird nicht geholfen. Der 30-30 wird geholfen. Der 30-30 wird geholfen. Der 30-30 wird geholfen. Der 30-30 wird geholfen. Der 30-30 wird geholfen. Der 30-30 wird geholfen. Der 30-30 wird geholfen.

02:50:30 And maybe, just maybe, get Alliance back on their feet. I think everyone was feeling maybe one more game was starting to be chanted here, but still a chance for Alliance. You mentioned it earlier. They do like to make it difficult for themselves. It's stressful being an Alliance fan. Well, Falcons still on this bridge position, which is going to be a very, very powerful one to hold out any teams who are rotating in towards the zone.

02:50:59 Piro Howe ist es auf der Ballistik, diese Zeit um. Rampage ist auf, revt auf in der Sling.

02:51:08 So NRG finally closing in on Babo. I think they were a little bit hesitant. But they might turn around if they see this dropship. Because Alliance have now respawned. Hackus and Effect. They'll be back onto the map on the southern side. NRG don't turn. They're still very much eyes trained on Babo. And it looks like they don't give a damn about what's going to be happening behind them right now. I mean, even though Alliance have managed to get the res, it's deep into zone. Yeah.

02:51:31 Und sie haben eine sehr lange Weg zu gehen hier zu kommen. Eine gute Sache für sie ist, dass sie auf einen Craftler sind, also sie können einen extra Medkit werden, aber es ist eine sehr lange Weg zu gehen. Speaking of Zone Informationen, die Zonen Informationen haben, die NRG haben. Ich habe gesagt, es war eine sehr lange Weg zu Zone. Effekt ist down, Hakkis ist down, Unlucky ist wieder alive.

02:51:53 Wie lange kann er survive? Kann er seine zwei Team-Mates zurück in dieser Spiel für die 3rd time? Hier kommt Babbo! Und NRG, Unlucky, hat er versucht, die Automata zu versuchen, zu bleiben.

02:52:15 Und ich denke, alle in der Lobby sehen das in der Killfeed, sehen die Allianz Eliminate, will einfach das Moment nehmen und sagen, okay, wir haben Zeit jetzt, wir haben nicht mehr Zeit, wir haben nicht mehr Zeit, wir haben nicht mehr Zeit, wir haben nicht mehr Zeit. Alcantia ist jetzt auf 41 Punkte, sie sind in auf Matchpoint, als ist der Shopify Rebellion. Oh, sie sind in, aber nicht mehr an der Moment, denn Zyno ist jetzt schon fertig und down. Sie sind in auf einen anderen, die zwei Teams sind in der Closest zu Matchpoint haben, aber es sieht, dass die Banner schnell wird, in Shopify Rebellion.

02:52:44 Es ist so intensiv, wie er das Spiel spielt. Es ist so intensiv, wie er das Spiel spielt. Er machte alle Monitoren. Es ist verrückt, dass er all diese Informationen an IGL gibt. Die mehr Info, die besser. Koeffel hat das Height, aber er hat ein bisschen mehr zu tun. Zainu, obwohl sie die Banner haben, sie müssen Rez ihn hier, und das wird der Job des MT. Sie müssen ihn zurückgehen, aber sie versuchen ihn zu holen.

02:53:11 Sie müssen Alkazia zurückziehen, aber sie könnten Kills auf Schopify Rebellion nehmen. Aber die Frage ist, ob Sie für die winn sind, oder ob Sie für die winn nehmen können? Sie können Kills auf Alkazia zurückziehen. So das ist Falkens, Alkazia, Schopify Rebellion auf der westen. Das ist eine hecke. Falkens ist die einzige Team, die hat Zone in der Moment, so sie sind diejenigen, die zu halten.

02:53:36 So Shopify back up to three. In the killfeed, Hunter Thieves starting to get a little bit busy as well. Starting to get active as Nine Lies Vayne, who will go down. Falcons currently surround Rebellion, by the way. Bojack here for Watsi as well. They have the bridge and they have eyes on Rebellion, but they're also well aware that Alcadzia are arriving at the same time. It's going to be messy if you try and force a fight too much. I think luckily for Falcons, Shopify Rebellion did not want to take it to them.

02:54:05 Almost forgot that knock. Now Kadzi up. Everyone's turned up for the same shift.

02:54:15 Schöpfefe Rebellion übernimmt die Zainu. Aber es wird jetzt die Swing geben. Es gibt große Dämpfe. Die Strafingflame wird auch. Aber Player K. jetzt ist es der Last Alive. Die Zone starte zu öffnen. Und wer ist durch die Fenster? Es ist die Falcons. Die Falcons haben das gemerkt. Die Falcons haben das gemerkt. Und sie werden können mit Multiple KP gewinnen. Da ist Schöpfefe Rebellion. Da ist Alkazia. Aber jetzt ist Empire.

02:54:41 Zeroth, Zeroth holding everyone off at the moment. Shopify Rebellion have been eliminated. Falcons go through the port, but it's an ugly looking ending to that portal. Have to retreat here. Alcanzia have been eliminated. Hau seems to have done enough to hold off Empire. Walsi down on that low ground looking to get Zeroth back on its feet and has managed to do so. Somehow Falcons, surrounded by multiple teams, are not only alive...

02:55:07 But all three are on their feet and they look to be thriving. Impressive cover there from Imperial Hell. Just making sure that Walti wasn't going to get sent on. He just had to deal damage and force Empire away. There is still one Empire member lurking around though. They are certainly trying to push up onto Falcons. Yeah, Empire just sending one out to try and clean up a little bit of that damage. The other two players are just to the north of him. So it seems like a scouting mission almost.

02:55:35 For Empire to try and hold out Falcons, but Falcons have to make their rotation now the zero support will go down Let's jump into the comms of Falcons and see how they're gonna rotate

02:56:02 Ich habe 5 Bats. Ich habe 5 Bats. Ich bin bereit.

02:56:26 Look out, I'm with you, I'm with you, I'm with you, I'm with you

Team Falcons erreichen Matchpoint und dominieren Spiel 5

02:56:55

02:56:55 Falken hat sich auf den Team gegründet, aber sie haben sich so gewohnt, dass die Team auf dem Team gewohnt werden. Falken ist der Weg durch die Zone. Und natürlich, mit Alcantia und Rebellion zu eliminieren, Falken sind nächst auf in den Match Point.

02:57:18 36 in the moment, but I won't get eliminated. That's more placement points for the Falcons. And VK Gaming looks like they might be heading out soon too. Yeah, Falcons are looking really, really good at the moment. It seems like the baiting and switching, the swinging is all very, very good.

02:57:34 You can see it, it's Nine Lions who are gonna pay the price. So much confidence flowing through the veins of Falcons. Very different to what we saw in Winner's Bracket Round 2 just a couple of days ago as Nine Lions get eliminated. That's again, more placement points. VK Gaming go down. NRG 21 points, 12th place in the moment, but they are still alive on the southern side. Yeah, NRG have been hit pretty early on. They got to zone with some good prio. SAUL.

02:58:00 They're next to them at the moment. Twisted Minds down on the low ground. NRG on the high. Envy also very, very close to them. Twisted Minds have managed to pour away from a lot of this traffic that's gone down below S8UL. But how do you escape from this position? Seven squads, final circle. This is why I love E-District. Falcons are going to be on the northwest. And actually they're going to be watching over towards Envy. But 100 Thieves on the east are at least going to have a say in this one. Especially with Sheila coming into play.

02:58:30 Empire still have one alive by the way the host is gonna get to pick up the legacy and that could be really really big because they were needing to rely on that race portal twisted minds have been eliminated in the meantime hundred these trying to hold off and take this space away from essay ul they're gone as well hundred things with the sheila will dispose of essay ul a win here would put father cook on to match point by the way two down on energy

02:58:57 Sikes hat sich jetzt mit der Grenade geblieben.

02:59:33 We're gonna take it, we're gonna join you!

02:59:36 It's been a heck of a road, a long old journey for Falcons from elimination bracket round two all the way to Matchpoint finals. But now they are the second team to reach Matchpoint and will have a chance to win this tournament in the next game. So two teams now on Matchpoint. Alliance, the EMEA powerhouse. The super team. Falcons now join them with an 11 kill win.

03:00:04 Und Zero schießt auf die Wings. Und natürlich, das bedeutet, dass wir weit weg von E-District gehen, und wir gehen zu Worlds Edge. Das ist ein Spiel, das Team Falcons haben drei Vierungen auf bereits. Die meisten Vierungen ein Team hat auf diesem Spiel, in diesem Spiel. Ist es alles anfangen, in den Falcons zu stehen?

03:00:30 Match 5 results are in. Ballistik, like you say, will be removed from the Legend Pool for this next game. It's an 11-kill win. Four Falcons that puts them on match point. In behind them again. Another good performance from Envy. With a 2nd place finish with a 4kp alongside that. 100t, 12 points on the board as well. NRG with 13. And I'm sure when we see these overall leaderboards, Dan, outside of that top 2, it is getting very, very close to multiple teams. Now jumping past 50.

03:01:00 Ja, es wird ein paar Teams sein, dass die Allianz und Falcons sein werden, wenn sie nicht geholfen werden, wenn sie nicht geholfen werden, in 6. Aber jetzt sehen wir das Spiel für Falcons.

03:01:10 But look just beyond that, Alkazia!

03:01:40 44 points, 6 away. Shopify Rebellion, just 8 away. 100 Thieves, just 9 away. We could have multiple teams going on to Matchpoint if Alliance or Falcons do not get it done in this next game. This is where Matchpoint really gets me going. This is where the excitement really starts to arrive. I mean, when you talk about consistency in Apex Legends, you think about the names that have been able to win lands. The fact we have Alliance and Falcons both with a chance to win it in 6 could be done here.

03:02:05 Could be done here, but will it be done here? We're going to have to find out in a few moments time as Falcons hit match point. We've got multiple teams still chasing them down, but it's Falcons who have given themselves a chance. Will it be Alliance? Will it be Falcons? Or will we have one more match?

03:02:36 The pressure, the expectations. Nah, I'm just kidding. I was born for this. Andiamo! I've got endless determination, a lifetime of practice, and a total lack of media training.

Team Falcons auf dem Weg zum Sieg in der ALGS Open

03:05:46

03:05:46 Seekralab weiß, dass die Körper geöffnet wurde, und der Tysan Evo Chair hat sich entwickelt, um das Ziel zu treffen. Während der 4-Way L-Adapt Lumbar-Support-System zuschöns deine Spine auf eine Y-shape-Lattice von livingen Hingern, die 165-Degrees der Rekline und der Klasse 4-Hydraulik, wird dich steig und bereit sein, während du deinem ganzen Bewegungsmöglichst. Willkommen zurück, alle, zu der ALGS Open, wo Team Falken haben nur 5 genommen genommen und sich aufgerufen.

03:06:15 So will we have a winner in our match number 6? Two teams now have that opportunity. One of them Falcons, like you just mentioned, Dan, have crossed that threshold. Alliance, who got there even earlier, still have that chance. But we have to also highlight that Chasing Pack. So many teams now, with one pretty good game, have an opportunity to join those two and maybe send us, just maybe, for one more game.

03:06:44 But it does send us to World's Edge now. We move away from E-District after the back-to-back. And that's the lay of the land. And that's also the legend bans. We're starting to get through them here. Now, of course, throughout the entirety of this tournament, we would always be ending in match six. We would only ever see five legend banned. But if we go further than six, we start to see those extra legends banned away from competition. We've lost Newcastle, Alter, Ash, Crypto.

03:07:12 und jetzt Ballistik. So das ist wo du tief in deinem Legend pool hast. Wer ist Versatile? Wer kann schnell zu etwas anderes für dein Team? Interessant ist es, dass wir vielleicht in den Unnone sind. Was Teams schon vorbereitet für 8, 9, 10, 11? Man könnte ein paar Teams auf der Mainstage denken, was die Compositions funktionieren. Aber sie sind nicht so praktisch. Sie sind einfach nicht so praktisch mit den Compositions. Das ist eine andere Elemente von Unpredictability.

03:07:40 Jetzt sind wir hier in der Match Point Finale.

03:08:08 Und es ist auch wert, dass Falcons die am meisten gewinnenste Team auf der Welt in diesem Tournament, mit drei Vektorien so far.

03:08:16 Und World's Edge ist der Battleground, die wir für die lange Zeit spielen haben, in der Apex Legends-Global-Serie. Es gibt viel Talk, die wir in diesem Event sehen, das erste Mal, das erste Mal, das erste Mal, das erste Mal, das E-District war, in Japan. Aber World's Edge ist jetzt, wo wir jetzt zurückkommen sind, mit zwei Teams, die für die meisten Zeit haben, besonders die Spieler, die diese Teams machen. Und sie werden sicherlich haben die Repetitionen, die wissen, wie sie weitergehen können.

03:08:42 Potentially, not just into a game-winning position, but a championship-winning position as well. Well, if you are not one of those two teams, if you are not Falcons or Alliance, the easiest way to keep this going to 7 is by winning 6. Something similar to what we saw happen at the ALGS Championships, when Na'Vi won the prior game. We were able to keep things going, and of course, they ended up going on to win the entire ALGS Championship, but they did not qualify.

03:09:07 Let's take a look at some of these compositions. We are seeing a little bit of Mad Maggie popping up on our screens. A lot of Mirage, which is very, very interesting. Who would have thought that we would have a potential Mirage ban after game number six? Just looking across, it's very possible.

03:09:34 Ich denke, es wird Bangalore sein, als die legend der Priorität, aber auch Mirage, und für eine gute Idee, weil er nur ein bisschen nautisch ist. Hier geht's, in die Nummer 6, die Spieler auf die Schreie sind. Ist das die letzte Spiel? Ist das wo die Allianz den ALGS Open Championship zurückkommt zu EMEA? Oder werden wir, natürlich, sagen wir eine weitere Spiel?

03:10:02 Will Falcons finally get that land victory that's eluded them for so long? Well, we're gonna have to wait a second before we get there as we've got a quick pause just getting into this one. Just to add to the extra nerves for not just the players, but of course the fans watching on. And me. I always get nervous. I'm not gonna lie when we see the pause come up, but it does give us an opportunity just to take a little look at the wonderful people who have joined us here in New Orleans. Sellout.

03:10:28 Das war's für heute. Wir geben heute eine große Strecke. Wir geben uns einen großen Applaus, New Orleans zu sein. Sie sind eine der größten Gründe, warum diese Events so special sind. Als ich gesagt habe, wenn wir heute kamen, die Queue war, um die Bühne zu sein. Ja, gib uns einen Applaus, New Orleans, woher du kommst. Du deserve es.

03:10:48 There is something special about an ALGS crowd. I mean, I've been able to be blessed to work multiple eSports, but ALGS crowds are always different gravy. Well, I think any problem that was there has now been resolved, and I've got some good news for you. We are going to be getting back into this game very shortly indeed. And World's Edge always does provide us with entertainment, and I can't wait to see how Match 6 goes. Let's get the hype going again then, everybody, as we head back into the game here on World's Edge.

03:11:16 Match number 6, and when we get the opportunity to look at this zone, there's gonna be a certain group of fans who might be smiling. Yeah, this is going to be an interesting one. I mean, Alliance are gonna be dropping on the very northwest, of course, up towards Trials. And they might have a zone heading their way. They do have access to Ring Console as Falcons. Maybe they're gonna have to move a little bit further.

03:11:41 Falcons mit ein bisschen weiter zu gehen, als du sagst, das ist wo das Zone ist. Jetzt Ring Consoles wird uns so viel Informationen an zu wo wir sind. Und für Alliance Fans, Rejoice, das ist ein Zone, das du gerne zu sehen. Ich denke, es geht um die Backer Trials zu gehen. Es könnte das Weg gehen, es könnte das Weg gehen. Es könnte das Weg gehen. Es könnte das Weg gehen. Es könnte das Weg gehen. Es könnte das Weg gehen. Es könnte das Weg gehen. Es könnte das Weg gehen. Es könnte das Weg gehen. Es könnte das Weg gehen.

03:12:08 Wenn sie vorhin SSG waren. Aber Falcons haben eine Ring Konsole und Survey Camp, so sie werden können durch den Norton Tunnel gehen. Und natürlich Alliance haben sie es, also sie werden können, wo sie die Zone gehen können. Early on, Nine Lines eSports sind in der Kampf. Und hey, surprise, surprise, Hoseika in der Kampf ist die Twerkaholics. Aber Twerkaholics sind nicht so gut in diesem Fall, als McLovin wird ein leichter 2-KP für ihre Collection.

03:12:33 Lunix to Site, I haven't really got a choice in this situation, I've got to try and get out from here, back to Thermal and try and get a rest. Careful here, Unlucky.

03:12:42 We are going to see Alkazia join Skyhook very fast indeed, as are other teams. Fury are moving. VK, GHS Boom are going to be there. Falcons are starting to transition as well. Everyone knows what kind of zone this is as soon as you get any indication from that ring console. As Nine Likes look to try and pick up the remainder. That is a very well-hidden player. Oh, he does not get spotted.

03:13:07 Nine Lies. You've missed an opportunity. Anyway, back towards the zone. One thing I do want to talk about is there is a ring console in Skyhook, but with so many teams arriving, I'm interested to know if Alliance did actually manage to hit it and where they're going to try and play. Because where Falcons are playing right now, I was going to say, if you can play for that Drill Tower in the house at the back here, it's a zone we haven't seen in quite some time here on World's Edge. And if Alliance weren't able to hit that ring console, then...

03:13:35 This might be a game winning position that Falcons have managed to steal away based on the fact that Alliance weren't able to get there first with that info. So both of our teams who are on match point right now have got themselves into great spots. Yeah this could be the best chance if ever for Team Falcons and they'll know it but of course with moving fast you won't have necessarily the loot and armor you would like.

03:13:58 There is definitely the chance that you could maybe pick up some extra evo just purely through damage as teams are going to be arriving towards you as well. But so many are moving. SAUL now joining everyone up towards Skyhook, Empire making their way, NRG, Rivals, they're all gonna be there soon. Still 20 teams left in this lobby and I wouldn't be surprised when Ring 2, Ring 3 start to close.

03:14:22 As Hau was just on a scouting mission, there's going to be a lot of squads here. More than one way, pull the G7 scout out there to try and just warn El Khadzia that they didn't really want to give that space up. But look at this composition, right? You've got Hau on the right, you've got Waltzy on the Watson. We are throwing it back. Old school here when it comes to the ALGS. We're only missing a Pathfinder to really take us back to Season 1. Speaking of throwing it back, how are the Twerkaholics doing? Looks like they are still alive down towards Tree, one of them, and maybe they can get back up to a full three.

03:14:50 Twisted Minds, 10th position in the moment. What a Saturday they had to send themselves into Match Point Finals, but they're a little bit off the pace at the moment. They need 24 points if they were to reach Match Point, but we just saw from Falcons that can be done just in one game. One game, like you say, one game can change everything. The fascinating thing about the zone that we do have right now, I think if we were to pick a zone...

03:15:12 Wir wollten es ein Skyhook-Zone sehen. Es ist so, so fun zu sehen, weil so viele Teams finden die Spielballspunkte. Aber ich denke, das ist es nach dem anderen Seite der Trials. Ich glaube, Babbo, bei der Momentan, hat sich die Drilltower-Position ausgewählt, von dem wir gesprochen haben, ein bisschen früher. Das ist das, was auf den Norden Seite der Trials selbst.

03:15:33 Falcons sind immer sehr sicher, aber sie werden sehr vorsichtig sein, aber sie werden sehr vorsichtig sein, weil Saul sind nur zu der leften von Walty, als er steht jetzt in der Cave Area, die Rock Formationen sind. Und viele Teams haben sich tief zu dem Norden gesehen. Sie haben die Zonen gewonnen, wo Falcons currently reside, und die Twerkaholics haben re-spawned Floating-In-Kates. So die 20er-Place-Team, die in dieser Lobby so far, wird wieder zurückgegangen.

03:15:59 As Envy are moving through towards Landslide at the moment. I think they were being chased. That's why they're just being a bit hesitant with their approach. Zap goes over it. Drop says, screw it, I'm just going to take it down.

03:16:13 Das war die Team, die auf der anderen Seite. Taxenton ist auch so, wie es sich für einen Matchpoint-Finals zu bekommen hat. Ich dachte, es war ein Moment. Das ist nicht wie ich mit dir. Das ist eine voll-on-Lean, als auch. Für jetzt, es ist die Entscheidung zu machen, um nicht zu pushen durch diese Tunnel zu tun, denn wir haben ein paar Fences down, das wird einfach nur eine Progresse und mit der Zeit von Ticken away, auf round number 1.

03:16:38 Use the time effectively to formulate a secondary plan. Back towards NRG then. NRG are going to hit a redeploy. And maybe try and play for the central building, the cake building here at Skyhook. It looks like they get this nice and clean. No contest for it as well.

03:17:01 And if there was to be a zone shift this way, they could be in one of the prime positions. But the majority of the lobby has predicted it's going to be going northwest, but I think others are banking on a more random pull towards Skyhook, because there's just not enough places to play in the northwest, of course. VP have got a long way to go. In more than one way, not just for the distance that they have to travel, but also because of the fact that they are off the pace down in 18th position at the moment. Green Stego, again, 30 points on the board.

03:17:29 Not too far off. A win would certainly take them towards match point. But that's what things look like at the moment. You can see what we're talking about. And it's not going to pull back to the trials side. It is going to stay on the Skyhook side. So that makes things interesting. Look how now everybody is dispersed around the edge of where this zone is going.

03:17:52 Ich denke, es ist eine Prime Real Estate, die nicht nur in Führer ist. Wenn man sich in den Führer befindet, kann man sich in den Führer befinden. Aber Allianz ist hier über Towards Trials. Sie sind einfach nur ein paar Teams vor Ort. Envy ist einer von ihnen. Und Effekt ist einfach nur in der Hölle von oben. Aber Looks wie Envy wird das eine Zapp von der Skinn des Teens. Das war der Target, das war der ganze Lobby.

03:18:20 Shoot the Bangalore, unfortunately, for the rest of the lobby. There's a lot of them. Unfortunately.

03:18:26 Well, Envy, he is going to survive in that situation. Now they are inside of Skyhook. This is really interesting. I mean, that map overhead that we saw a few moments ago, right, tells you everything you need to know. I think everyone's not quite sure where this is going to pull. Could he pull up towards Alcadzia just under that bridge? 100 Thieves have got to make some choices on where they want to play, and they are approaching from a fairly busy side of the zone at the moment. I mean, the whole zone just feels busy. Everywhere's busy. That's what happens when we get Skyhook.

03:18:53 9 Lies

03:19:16 They're probably trying to think about a way to get in towards Skyhook at the moment. We saw how difficult it was for Envy, even when you slide down towards that Beacon building. It can be a little bit of a pain with so many teams looking down the likes of Alliance on the top of Trials as we take a look at the Raven.

03:19:34 Finally we take ourselves away from Skyhook and look at some of these teams who are going to be here very late. And that's going to be Green Stego who is one of those. Twerkaholics are moving towards the train tunnel, I was going to say just outside of Monument at the moment, but not really in a position where they're going to be any kind of trouble. You can also see the Green Stego just hitting a ping on the Survey Beacon, trying to see what might be free a little bit later as they try and dive their way in towards Skyhook.

03:20:01 Ja, ich denke für die Tuerkaholics, sie sind so lange, ihr habt zu spielen die Evo-Game. Look at that spot! Yelari, man. Spider-Man. Ja, ihr könnt in der Doom, wenn ihr in der Cake-Bildung seid.

03:20:17 Der V.P. hat sich das Gebäude zu haben. Ich denke, das könnte wirklich ein Problem sein. Es ist ein schlechtes Gebäude zu holen, aber es ist einfach nur ein Wunderbar zu Grenaden, aber wenn man sich die Röse bringt, dann wird es gut sein.

03:20:35 We really have to be communicating effectively to make sure that nobody is flanking on to you. Just looking at the kill feed. Alcadzi have just lost one. Pricey has gone down, but hasn't been finished off as yet. VKG, by the way. QQ is very, very close to Lu. And we might see QQ versus Lu. We might see VK versus VP. Create a ball. Just in case they wanted to get down and dirty with VP. But I don't think they will, considering the position they also find themselves in.

03:21:03 A very advantageous spot for VK right now.

03:21:08 Ich weiß nicht, ob er sich für eine Kidnappe in der Situation ist, weil die Fenster auf den anderen Seite der Portal ist. Aber Twerkaholics, die in diesem Spiel sind, die sind still alive, die sind still bereit für Probleme, in diesem Lobby, endlich wieder in den Stegow zu kommen. Und es ist ein Kampf für den Mythic Bin. Der Winner von diesem Spiel wird ein sehr guter Reward. Aber Green Stegow sind viel healthierer, wenn es um ihre Armour zu kommen. Die R&D Twerkaholics wollen versuchen, das zu bekommen. Aber Aja ist jetzt gleich vorwärts, es wird Dexter mit der 2nd.

03:21:38 Und Twerkaholics müssen nachdenken, was für sie weiter ist für sie in diesem nächsten Spiel. Loonix hat sich geholfen, kann es nicht weg und Twerkaholics werden. Sie werden nicht bekommen, die Mythic Bin nicht bekommen.

03:21:51 So what are the rewards for Green Stego? We'll find that out later because that's where the zone is going to continue to pull a little bit further northwest. So again, Falcons are still going to be fine. Alcazia, Bank Center, S8UL. I kind of like that position on the northern side as well. Yeah, it's a really, really good position because look at the traffic. Look at where everyone is built up. They have that side. They have their backs clear. And it's one less place they have to worry about teams trying to wrap them from. Whereas if you're coming from the southern side, I mean, take your pick. How many teams can you see on your screen who are going to have to move?

03:22:20 Ja, 100 Thieves backed off, because they didn't know if they were going up against a 2 or a 3. They saw Healthy Shields, they shot Healthy Shields and decided, look, we should be backing off, this is not worth it in the fight.

03:22:51 So instead they now have to just wait for this ring to close before they get information. They're gonna have to move cake building will not be it The one team who's been sent a zone for the majority of this game is Alcazia under that bridge you saw it from the Point of view of Imperial how a little bit earlier on when he had that rate the portal down and that position that was taken away

03:23:17 But they will be assaulted from multiple angles towards this endgame. But this is a tough endgame. It's essentially all open ground. It's just rock formations and natural undulations of the ground that are going to allow you to survive here. Hackers being a nuisance with the charge rifle, but it's also going to be a nuisance for Alliance to get into this next zone. They don't know about it yet, but they're about to find out in a couple of seconds. Whilst Nine Liars are also going to take the fight here against Envy. Oh no, it's Kat, excuse me. Nine Liars will be able to get at least two. One player has escaped.

03:23:47 von Katz. Er ist still trapped inside of the building. Es ist nicht wirklich so far you can go with so many teams that are stacked up. I think a lot of these teams down on the southern side are realising this is a play for kill situation. Kalamitris will finally go down and Katz will be eliminated. Nine Lyons will win that one. There are other teams here though. Green Stego now joining the party. They've just about got the res though but of course you have to commit so much more without Newcastle in your comp. I think Hackes was going for a cheeky kidnap there on a member of Shopify Rebellion and we used to call this man...

03:24:16 Die Kidnap-King und NRG haben in der Mittagessen geplantiert. 100 Thieves sind sicherlich involviert. Ja, Twisted. Und 100 Thieves, aber jetzt Allianz. Sie wollen den Fight 2, Schopify Rebellion hier. Allianz hat's endet das. Unlucky gett die erste Runde zu Koeifu. Sie bekommen die Finish. Was ein Ballsy-Player kam in von Allianz. Es ist ein Drop-Down. Auf Schopify Rebellion. Zainu tries zu escape. Gets die Ball down.

Alliance eliminiert Shopify Rebellion, Falcons dominieren weiterhin

03:24:42

03:24:42 But are they going to be able to reset here? I mean, where does Shopify go in this situation? Nowhere! They've been eliminated! Alliance! They bullied them out! Well, Alliance knew they had to make a play. They are no stranger to Matchpoint. They're no stranger to, at times, knowing you have to be aggressive in that moment, especially when you have to make a move towards Zone, because the Zone is going to continue to pull towards the worst team it could possibly be for Alliance. It's going to be Falcons on that Northwest, where they move right at the very start of this game.

03:25:10 All the stars beginning to align for that God squad they've formed a brilliant zone read coming in from Falcons to play for that house to get there early and it's the difference again of a ring console right think of Alliance they dropped here at Skywest but they didn't have access to the ring console because so many teams were able to get their first Envy kind of having their hands forced here Sykes gets ripped out the skies he's only about 15 20 HP but could Envy

03:25:38 Green Stego eliminated as well.

03:26:03 Und alle diese Teams haben versucht das Weg in und du kannst sie sehen... Oh mein Gott, look at die Feed! Oh mein Gott! Look at die Feed! Falkenzell, sie haben die Gebäude verlassen, sie haben versucht, diese Seite zu entfernen. Sie wollen die Ecien-8U-L, als der Rest der Traffik kommt. So viele Teams haben einfach geschehen, als sie versuchen, die Skyhook zu verlassen.

03:26:24 Aber zwei Teams sind still alive. Die zwei Matchpoint-Teams. V.P., die nächste zu 4. Wir haben nur noch ein Team. Ein weiter Team geht auf die Matchpoint. Alcantia. EFFECT. Trying to hold off the entirety of FURIA hier. Allianz! Und jetzt ist es in den Händen von Team Falcons. Envy. Eliminated. S.A.U.L., haben wir nach 5.

03:26:48 Team Falcons against four other squads here. To finally maybe have that moment of lifting a trophy as this squad that formed, that was meant to lift trophies, that was designed to lift trophies. But at the moment, every single chance they've had, they have not quite been able to get over that finish line. Could this be that moment?

03:27:11 The play to move from that building towards the north from Falcons. Clear AS UL. And then look forward onto the rest of the lobby is brilliant. And as I did mention, Alcazia are now on match point. But they of course have to stop Falcons winning if they want to chat. PK for Hal. Walsh has got some temporary red shields as well as the zone starts to close from that shield swap. But he's back down to blue now. Although, of course...

03:27:40 Mit Watsons' Abilities ist es eigentlich ein Purple, mit den extra Shields, die du get hast. Gott, das ist nervig. Du kannst eigentlich sehen die Nervs, besonders auf Monty's face. Er hat nicht den Trophäen gehalten. Falcons versuchen zu machen für dieses Endgame, versuchen zu close das Championship zu machen. Let's jump in den Coms, Team Falcons.

03:28:09 Ich bin der Team. Ich bin der Team. Ich bin der P's. Ich bin der P's. Ich bin der P's.

03:28:23 No, they're peeking balcony, they're not. That's a maggie ball, not me. I got stunned. I got a swap. I'm getting a, I'm getting a gen and I'm gonna ult excelle, okay? I'm getting a swap. I gen in that corner. I'm ult excelling. Hey, Cardius? No, no, no, no. They're just sitting there. Their gen's not deep enough. I have another ult, I just ult excelle. They're fighting right side, they're fighting right side. I don't knock yourselves. 27, we can't cross lane though. They're just sitting there.

03:28:49 One guy just jumped off. I started. I'm telling. Falcons now have to make their move elsewhere. It seems like the lobby is taking care of each other. Twisted Mines have taken out. Bam over. They've stayed healthy enough as we are down to three. Falcons, the only team here who can win it. Alcantio are taking a look at Falcons. It's Rafe in Flame. We'll back zero back into that portal. Send them back to the hidey hole of North. And now he goes down. Twisted Mines.

03:29:16 Oh, strafing Flame, it's on his back, but can they get the res? Imperial House gonna get through that ball. He avoids defense as well. A risky play here. I have to go back.

03:29:28 Es versucht den Kampf zu empfehlen. Er will Twisted Minds für ihn auf Alkazia, so dass es ein einfaches 3D-Party für ihn ist. Ist das genius von Imperial Howe und Falcons? Es sieht nicht aus, dass Twisted Minds die Bait sind. Twisted Minds sind nach vorne. Wenn sie sich beobachten, dass sie gut wissen, dass Falcons noch hier sind. Falcons walken ist sehr, sehr schwierig.

03:29:51 Twisted Minds haben die Height-Bildung, auf der Seite der P.O.V. von Wadzei gesehen haben. Gehen von dieser Brücke wird so schwer. Die Smokes von Zero und wie sie sind sind, könnte sich die Auswirkungen als ob die Falkons gewinnen können. Worth noting, Twisted Minds haben Valkazia, sie haben sich bewegt, sie sind gegen sie, sie sind gegen sie, sie sind gegen sie!

03:30:32 Making sure they're patient. Making sure they don't make any mistakes. Albreleli!

03:31:28 Und wie Onset sagte, es war eine grüße Zeit.

Team Falcons gewinnt die ALGS Open in New Orleans

03:31:45

03:31:45 Wahrscheinlich, Waltzy wird die Chance bekommen, als er wird die erste ALGS-Trofe bekommen. Das ist was die Team für das Team. Das ist was sie, dass sie das machen können. Und wenn man die Streams sieht, man sieht die Clips, man weiß, dass es nie einfach war. Es gab viele Leute, es gab viele Ideen, aber wenn man etwas über Apex Legends weiß, wenn man etwas über Kompetitive ist,

03:32:13 Es ist zu bringen die Besten aus dem anderen. Und Zero, Hau und Woltzy haben genau das gemacht. Für ein Zeitpunkt in Apex Legends, wir waren über die Werbung, Zero oder Hau. Heute ist Zero und Hau. Und natürlich, Woltzy mit ihnen. Natürlich, ein großes Herzlichen Glückwunsch zu allen anderen, die in diesen Finals competed. Und vielleicht eine commiseration zu Allianz, die so nah sind.

03:32:40 in der zweiten Platz. Wir gehen über die Ergebnisse später. Aber das Trophy ist für die Falcons. Was ein Performance. Ich denke, wenn du nach dem ersten Mal nach der Elimination Bracket geht, viele Leute denken, dass es nicht die Falcons machen. Das ist nicht die Falcons. Das ist nicht was wir für das, was wir sehen. Aber das ist das, was sie können. Das Elimination Bracket ist die grüße von allen.

03:33:07 Das war's. Wie viele Spiele haben sie zu spielen, zurückzuziehen, um die Position zu sein, um die Lobby zu sein. Und dann in den Elimination Finals, ich denke, die größte Sache für sie war, war ein guter POI Draft, dass sie noch guter POI Draft waren, dass sie noch guter POIs in dieser Finale haben, und wirklich einen Influenz.

03:33:26 auf wenn sie das Trophy können. Ich denke, dass in der POV-Draft wir vier MAPs involviert haben, hat eine viel bessere Chance zu bekommen, dass sie ein POV gemacht hat, und sie hat es funktioniert mit, auf mehrere MAPs. Also, wir sehen uns das gewinne Moment von der POV-Falcons. Ich meine, es scheint, dass alles funktioniert perfekt für sie. Ein paar Risky-Momenten vor dem mit Alkazia. Aber dann, wenn du sah, Twisted Minds und Alkazia, sozusagen, den Weg zu der Trophy.

03:33:55 Es ist so einfach für Falcons zu clean. Und Sie sehen, Falcons wollte das. Sie wollten das Spiel wiederholfen und wiederholfen, wenn Hau war, um sich durch den Portal zu ziehen, dann wiederholfen, als diese sind die finalen Ergebnisse für den ALGS Open hier in New Orleans. Falcons sind die Champions mit den meisten Points in der Lobby. Allianz ist in der Hintergrund. Und es wird Alcadzia, die gleiche Punkte, aber...

03:34:22 Was ein Moment. I mean, I think that when this roster was first formed, there was the consideration of are they going to win everything? Is it going to be just too easy for them because they're a god squad? And then we see...

03:34:49 Multiple teams go on to beat them. And then you ask the question, will they even survive as a team? You heard the arguments. We saw the arguments. A butt of heads between zero and how. But when it all comes together like that, and they're going to get their trophy moment, you can't really argue against it. Yeah, I mean, I always say this, like, you don't know ball if you don't know what that is about. It's about bringing the best out of each other. It's about trying to fire each other up. And even though it can seem sometimes like it's toxic, it's a relationship that brings out the best in each other. It's a relationship.

03:35:18 that brings championships to Falcons. And that's what this team is designed to do. We're going to send it to the stage now because I think it's time for Falcons to claim a trophy.

03:35:34 From what began with over 400 players has been extensively trimmed. Those team tree branches have been pruned and now there is only one team standing. Ladies and gentlemen, please give a huge and emphatic round of applause for Team Falcon!

03:36:24 LGS New Orleans Open Champions Team Falcon.

03:37:02 Congratulations to Team Falcons, of course, Hal, Waltzi, Droga, of course, the coach, and yes, Zero. Absolutely amazing performance from all of you. Brilliant, brilliant stuff. I want to give you guys the mic and have each of you individually talk me through your thoughts going through that final lobby. Here you go. Honestly, the quality was just very different to every other finals before. There's just a lot of inting. It's a bit of an interesting lobby as well, like some teams that have never made finals.

03:37:31 Our first game, really hard zone, got some points out of it. Fourth game, or fifth game, was really big for us as well. And then last game, we just get zoned. Pretty free. Alright. How about you, Seth? Iga, can you take the mic?

03:37:52 Ich weiß nicht, ich weiß nicht, was ich gerade gespielt habe. Wir haben, wie viele Spiels in den letzten drei Tagen? 48? So, ich war jetzt bereit, um zu spielen, ich kann nicht sagen. Ich war so fated, wenn wir gewonnen haben. Aber ich wollte sagen, ein Shoutout zu meinen zwei Team-Mates, man. Sie sind die fucking Goats.

03:38:15 Ja, ich weiß nicht, viel zu sagen. Ich kann nicht glauben, dass sie die Gauntlet gewonnen haben. Full 36-Games in der E-League-Bracket. Und zu sein ehrlich, als wir es durch die E-League-Bracket kamen, ich wusste, sie hatte es heute. Ich bin sehr froh, dass sie durch die E-League-Bracket kamen.

03:38:40 Für mich, in der letzten Spiel war ich war Wraith, so ich fühlte mich, ich hatte viel Druck und Druck auf mich zu machen. Ich habe nicht mehr Wraith in einem Mal gespielt, aber ich war nicht wirklich auf dem Team, ich war ziemlich nervös, um nicht zu machen. Aber ich weiß nicht, dass ich das erste Team wäre, die erste Team zu ever gewinnen, von Lugers Bracket.

03:39:08 Und wir haben es geschafft. Ich bin sehr stolz von meinen Team-Maten. Jeder weiß, dass wir immer auf und auf die Vibes sind. Aber wir sind die beste Team in der Welt. Und wir brauchen mehr Zeit. So, ja. Amazing stuff. Sentiments, das ich sicher alle hier auch agrees mit. Jetzt ist es Zeit, die Lace in Lace zu erwähnen. Der MVP.

03:39:33 Yes, thank you very much guys. Obviously give it up for Team Falcons, but today we're going to award the most valuable player. He is the man that got the most knocks, damage and kills out of anybody in this entire competition. Congratulations Imperial Howe, you are the MVP. Now Howe.

03:40:01 Okay. Now, what do you think makes a big difference between a good player and a great player? Passion. Literally, there's passion. How dedicated are you to your craft? How obsessed are you? And I feel like I'm obsessed with Apex. So, that's the difference.

03:40:21 I mean, look, you haven't given up yet, and you're doing an amazing job so far. Now, you guys kind of quickly wrapped it up very quickly with all the stats and all the craziness that you guys had to go through over the last four days. What do you want to say to your fans? You know, I appreciate you guys for sticking out. I know there's a lot of haters out there, especially on Reddit. You know, we're still going to be here winning, you know, with or without you. So, you know, people that root for us, I appreciate you guys, even after leaving TSM. But I love you guys, you know, every single day.

03:40:51 Well, that's it. It's been your CEO, Imperial Howe, the MVP, and from the Falcons. Take it away, Ryan. Well, that is an absolutely phenomenal performance from you guys. Brilliant, brilliant, Ron. One final question. What does it mean to you, Zero, to win the most stacked, the largest LAN of all time in the Apex universe? That was kind of free. Looking forward to DWC.

03:41:15 A man who keeps it very honest indeed. Wow, absolutely incredible stuff. That's going to be it here from the stage, from myself, Lace, and of course the amazing Team Falcons. Ladies and gentlemen, one more time, I want you to raise the roof off this place for your ALGS New Orleans Open Champions, Team Falcons!

03:41:46 Und das ist es, von der Stage. Ich denke, es ist es Zeit, zurück zu der Desk zu culminieren, das Amazing Open hier in New Orleans. Take it away, guys. Thank you, Ryan. Es war Falcon's Day. Just couldn't be said any differently. They ran the Gauntlet in the Elimination Bracket. The hardest thing to do here at the Open. With the most teams, 36 grueling games, to win it in six here. Kind of like they manifested, not only winning from the Elimination Bracket,

03:42:16 Not playing any more games. They were like, man, we got to get out of here early. We've been here all night. Come on, let me manifest dinner, I feel like Falcons said. But Lauren, it was great to see a lot of competition. But this story from Falcons, it really is a story that began years ago, or really about 11 months ago, when these guys decided to split from their teams and make this super team that hadn't been super up until now. Yeah, and we were just kind of talking about that while we were watching them.

03:42:42 Ich glaube, dass sie das ganze Zeit haben, weil wir gesagt haben, dass sie sich unimpressen haben, sogar in der Interview gesehen haben. Zero hat gesagt, es war kind of free, aber ich glaube, dass sie das so machen können, weil sie das so gemacht haben, als die Superteam.

03:43:00 Prior to this, now it looks like they figured it all out and they've started off year five with a win. It's an interesting way to kind of put it. Maybe they felt that this should have happened a long time ago and that that energy that they wanted to display right when they formed was what they finally got to show to the world. We all have seen the in-betweens though. So I was expecting a little bit more of a release finally. But let's take a look at the moment that actually led to the victory. Jamerson, this zone they had handled from early on.

03:43:29 Und dann sehen wir in der zweiten Partie und dann sehen wir Twisted Minds und Alcatia

03:43:59 Die Maggi-Ball wird verwendet. Sie findet ihr Moment und sie schreit. Und sie wussten, ich konnte sie auf dem Spiel sehen, dass sie das eine in die Bank hatten. Und Sie sehen, die Reaktion von Zero nach dem ersten Mal. Es war nur noch ein Tag in der Office für sie. Ja, es war so, dass er nicht geholfen hat. Er war so, dass das nicht supposed to work. Das könnte ein e-mail sein. Ja, das könnte ein e-mail sein. Dia, wie du fühlst? Es fühlt sich wie eine foregone conclusion, von dem Beginn. Du, eigentlich, in die Endgame, in die Vibration,

03:44:28 Ich wusste nicht, dass die Falken werden konnte, aber es war die Katalist-Wall von Alkazia wirklich verändert. Diese beiden Teams, Alkazia und Twisted Minds, waren in der Final-Circle mit Falken, beide hatten die Chance zu gehen mit der Victory. Aber sie kämpfen sich mit einem anderen? Ich meine, die Lens-Experienz von Falken gibt es den Weg zu wissen, dass das Katalist-Wall war. Ich denke, wir haben das Spiel gewonnen. Ja, und ich denke, dass es einfach möglich ist, wenn du einfach nur ein Zuschauer zu sehen, warum? You know, Twisted Minds.

03:44:57 Wir sind in der Position, wenn ihr euch einfach nur anstrengt, wir haben eine Chance. Ihr whole story continues. Ist das Erfahrung, Diea, ich sage Ihnen wieder, das vielleicht kommt, wenn es nicht zu erkennen, dass das Falcons ist, oder zu kämpfen für etwas in fronte von dir, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du...

03:45:13 Ich glaube, es geht darum, dass es eine große Herausforderung ist. Das ist eine große Herausforderung von Alkazia, von TwistedMinds. TwistedMinds hat viele Predictions heute. Alkazia hat eine fantastische Runde so far. Aber wenn wir zu den Finals haben, es ist die Menge Erfahrung, dass du auf die Top-Level zu haben, um auf Teams zu spätigen. Ich war sogar eben, zuerst, ZERO, darüber, dass es nach dem ersten oder zweiten Spiel, nicht nur die winners, aber wo sie kamen.

03:45:42 Tracking all of that in his head throughout the course of this LAN is something that only very experienced IGLs can do when it really comes down to seeing as many details as possible and knowing what the outcomes of, say, a last fight might be.

03:45:57 Always nice to see some love from the families there hanging out and just celebrating a win. The thing that I do want to, you know, and this is coming from somebody who's been in competitive sports for a very long time, won a lot of things, not in esports, but in actual sports. You take it for granted sometimes when you're winning a lot that wins always happen. And I think if you look back and you see every moment the Falcons didn't win.

03:46:22 If they could go and have this moment again in those moments that it didn't work out, I feel like they'd be grateful, right? And it does feel like maybe they've just hit this rhythm. But I also want to just give a word to that because I know the free and stuff like that is like cherish this moment. You know, winning is hard. 145 teams. There's 144 other options that could have happened and you guys made it work. So whether it felt easy or not, it's special.

03:46:45 that you got the job done. And that's obviously just, you know, my thoughts coming in from it as obviously Falcons are on top today. It's their night. It's their open. And of course, Sony has helped us put together some of those great moments as well as we go to our Sony InVision kill leader for Imperial Howe Jamerson. It really wasn't a question of him being the MVP. We had talked about it on our desk so often. His performance this weekend, truly phenomenal. Yeah, 42 games played, 135 eliminations.

03:47:14 Ich bin super aggressiv mit dem Squad. Sie haben wirklich einen Weg zu geben. Und ich denke, Walty, oft hat das Anker für ihn gewonnen. Aber ich bin so glücklich, dass sie es zusammengefasst haben hier wieder. Ich bin, ich bin wieder, Split-1, als ein Gast auf der Desk. Und so, ich bin auf dieser Reise mit dem mit dem letzten Jahr. Wir sahen sie mit dem Start-Off, Split-2.

03:47:44 Jahr 4, in einem tollen Weg, wo sie dominiert sind. Und dann haben wir die Kräfte in den Armour gesehen. Aber es gab ein Zeit, ein Reworfen. Und weil der Discord im Team ist, weil all die Röster-Shift sind, haben wir auch so viele andere, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr.

03:48:06 Really, that have been rooting for the Falcons not to succeed for a long time. And, you know, this has got to be cathartic for Falcons fans, for Falcons family members. I know Richard Zero's dad is probably proud at home. I don't think he made it into the stands here. But watching Hal has his mom here, I know. And I think that's his dad down below, his girlfriend. Lauren, you know, this is maybe now the end of this idea of can the super team, can they win?

03:48:32 We know they can win now. They've done it. This is the trophy. They've got their moment. What's next, though, in a bigger idea? I kind of want to keep your eye on that as we kind of look forward now with Falcons having done this at this point. I mean, I think obviously everybody knew that they were a team prior and on an individual level that were all capable of winning. We wanted to see them come together.

03:48:54 als das Trio und sehen was, wenn man die besten Spieler in der Welt bringen und sie alle auf den gleichen Squaden bringen. Initially, es war nicht was wir, oder was wir wollten, wirklich. Aber jetzt haben sie eine gewinne, ich denke, das nächste Schritt ist, dass sie...

03:49:08 die Best of the Best ist nicht nur die Wünge, sondern auch die Wüngegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegegege

03:49:35 ...to the race of match points. Sometimes you get there quickly, sometimes you get there slowly. Oh yeah, this is one of the quickest alliance moments that we have seen of dominating a lobby early. It wouldn't be their story. They would get plenty, of course, of points. And they will be earning a lot of cash as well. For those who forget about it, there's still that prize.

03:49:58 von Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts und Hunderts.

03:50:22 This could be it, the beginning of the Dynasty and the end of this conversation that Falcons maybe just don't have what it takes. Well, they certainly do. They prove it on the world stage. They prove it on the biggest stage that we have as well, and it makes it that much sweeter.

03:50:39 After all of the turmoil, all the ups and downs, all the arguments that of course Reddit thought would break up the team and even we did as casters turn into them lifting that trophy as one. Three coming together and making things happen here on the grand stage of Apex Legends at the Open. Doesn't get much better than that. These guys gonna have a fun night tonight as Imperial Howl

03:51:03 Ask Zero. What was that, man? We've been needing to do that for a long time. And they finally did. Alienware Aces, thank you so much for supporting us. We've got a couple more members here on our panel, all the talent team joining us, guys. And as we like to do here to close out the show, I want to give some final thoughts to all of our analyst desk here. Lauren, I'll start with you. ALGS Open, biggest tournament in Apex Legends history so far. It's complete. What do you got to say? I think that...

03:51:28 Being able to see the full scope of our international and up-and-coming talent all at one LAN is probably one of the coolest things we've ever done. It was a total community vibe unlike anything we've ever seen before. And I really hope that we continue to do this, keep raising up any new talent that's coming into the scene and seeing what everybody can bring to the table. Jamerson? Yeah, speaking of new talent, of course, you know, we talked about Twerkaholics all week long, but I do want to say it's great to see a CC team really be able to make it so far.

03:51:58 Das war's für heute.

03:52:22 Well, we brought up all those stories, like you're talking about, teams coming from Challenger Circuit. I, kind of like you, Reinde, am...

03:52:29 Caught by the question, with Falcons having so much turmoil before this land, what does the future hold for them? How do you build a dynasty when you already are starting with teams, players that have individually created so much mystique around them and how they're able to win over and over? So while we're bringing up all this talent, while Challenger Circuit players are, I'm sure, going to be picked up by a lot of Pro League teams that want to succeed, what's the top doing as well? How far can they push the bar of Apex Legends? And will we see a team like TSM?

03:52:59 wie DarkZero, das sich zu haben, für so lange zu haben, wieder zu erinnern.

03:53:04 You know, I kind of spitball these most of the time, but that kind of led me to where I want to start, which is how do you build a dynasty? A lot of times in our lands, we ask that question with teams that have already had their foot in the door. In this land, we ask the question, how do you start one? A lot of teams, a lot of players had an opportunity here that they never would have gotten beforehand. And the beautiful thing about that is that we also give an opportunity to fans, to people in the community to come and experience this land with us, for us.

03:53:33 Vielen Dank.

03:54:03 All types of people being brought together with Apex Legends to come here for the passion of what the game means. The game that Respawn created just six years ago that changed every single one of our lives. Even if your story didn't end in a trophy lift this time around, it might have ended in a spirit lift. It might have ended in a thought process of you saying, maybe I could be on that stage one day.

03:54:26 And look at Twerkaholics finding their way to be watchpartied by some of the biggest YouTubers in the world, some of the biggest streamers in the world, from the ground up, starting their journey alongside Apex. The Open is about making you believe that there is more to what is happening in your life, and not just more, great things, challenges to overcome, and championships to hold. Whether you met them, the pros, whether you met your fans, whether you met some friends, we love that you have been here at the ALGS Open.

03:54:55 Und wir können nicht warten und sehen was weitergeht.

03:54:58 From all of us here on the Talent Team, my family, my friends, my crew, we love you, we appreciate you. Big shout out to my family as well. Can't wait to get back to you guys. And of course, everyone at EA, our behind the scenes of Esports Engine, everyone who's worked on the game, our lovely partners, and everyone involved in making Apex Legends special, we appreciate you. And we hope you enjoyed the ALGS Open. What's next for Apex? Stay tuned. We will have all of that coming. But let me tell you one thing, it's going to get better and better like it always does. My name's been Randy. As always, remember to...

03:55:28 Never give up. Never stop gaming. And we will see you all next time.

03:58:05 Red Bull is the official energy partner of the Apex Legends Global Series.
