Meta-Analyse und Teamzusammensetzungen in Apex Legends

00:00:00

00:00:00 If you don't have three different classes, like let's say you've got a controller character, a recon character, and an assault character, something like that, you're kind of throwing at this point because you give a lot of team-wide evo buffs by having all of those options available to you. Because sometimes your ring console won't spawn and you might have to rely more on, you know, getting those perk bins or, you know, maybe scanning a survey beacon as you go around the map.

00:00:29 Und dann natürlich auch die andere Dinge, die wirklich verändert hat, ist die Evo Harvesters. Und als Sie sehen können, Sie geben 350 Euro. Das ist eine der größten Doppelzüge in diesem Evo System. So Sie werden die Teams verletzten, um, ihre Endgame-Goals und Circles zu sehen.

00:00:50 Ich glaube, es ist über 40 Sekunden von Ring 1.

00:01:05 So it is a simple way to do it. Like you touched on, Genome, if you don't have the scan characters to do the beacons and stuff, teams might have to look at exactly rotating into those Evo Harvesters. But, you know, our professional teams have had a couple of weeks to undergo the new meta changes and how all the upgrades and everything works. But, you know, it's going to get access to a skill tree. So, Genome, I want you to take us through this just because we're going to have different character changes. These pros have gotten different characters into the meta. And then having these, you know, we're...

00:01:34 Ich werde auf ein paar Core-Meta-Changes machen. Das sind Bangalore, Bloodhound und Core-Stick. Wir können genau wie ihre Skill-Trees funktionieren und warum Teams haben diese für ihre Kompetition gekauft.

00:01:48 Alright, so, uh, yeah, as you said, that's the, the predominant, um, team composition that we're seeing at the moment, Lace. Bangalore, Bloodhound, Caustic. So just walking through those legends, um, if you guys haven't had a chance to play, or you've been wondering what the pros are using when they, uh, they choose those perks and upgrade their levels, um, Bangalore first here, still a strong character. I mean, obviously, one of the big changes we've had is that, um, digital threats are no longer available on...

00:02:16 Uh, SMGs, right? You can, you can only use them on pistols and, um, on shotguns now. So, yeah, bang. You often get with, uh, ultimate cooldown, um, obviously very strong ultimate, um, and then I feel like there's a little bit more choice in that level 3 upgrade, but most people I think I have been seeing going for the cover me perk.

00:02:38 Yeah, exactly right. So, you know, I haven't had my chance to sort of jump onto Bangalore, but watching a lot of scrims today, we've noticed that, you know, that that's what they've been going for. You know, it seems like a bit of a spread throughout it. And like I said, you know, a lot of people are now picking up Bloodhound. We didn't get a chance to see the skill tree there, but Bloodhound has been an absolutely a major pick. And I do feel like the skill that they have done has been quite similar over the picks as well.

00:03:02 Wir können sehen, wir sehen, dass die Quick Beacon sind. Wir werden sehen, wo diese Teams sind heute für World's Edge sind. LFISH, wollen Sie uns durch diese Dropspots gehen? Ja, nichts zu wirklich majores zu touchieren. Obviamente, wir haben das eine kleine Contest über den Lava Fischer. Aber besides das, alle sind ziemlich gemütlich, ziemlich glücklich. Gut spread. Akuma MXF ist wirklich die einzige, die wir...

00:03:29 Ich freue mich auf dieses erste Lobby auf World's Edge, aber ich bin sicher über den Kursen von heute, dass es noch mehr gibt. Und was ich sage da auch, ist es, es hat sich sehr verändert, weil es diese Veränderungen gibt. PoI's mit PVE Optionen, wie Trials, die nur eine, ist...

00:03:48 Now one of the most important changes on World's Edge. So teams will generally loot a little bit slower and will path towards those final circles a little bit slower as well going by the Evo Harvesters. Yeah, I also wanted to touch on like we've obviously brought up with Evo stuff.

00:04:03 um so you know evo harvesters and stuff randomly spawn and teams are dropping with white shields um you know we touch on where teams used to drop on purple shields you know which is pure luck it may feel like it's a little bit more simple but let's go have a look at how these teams are changing with season 20 match one is underway this is world's edge

Frühe Spielphasen und Team-Dynamiken in APAC South

00:04:27

00:04:27 Indeed it is, and it's time for us to jump into Game 1, A&C Lobby, and it's time to get a bit of an idea of what APAC South is going to bring to the table with regard to all of these changes that we see coming through into the new season, and already the contest is going to begin with a little bit of an exchange. Again, we did mention that one.

00:04:53 Ja, es wird ein schwieriges Mal für MXF, bei der looksensten. Kuma ist jetzt einfach auf das, aber wirklich nicht viel zu touchieren. Es ist ein interessantes Contest auch, Elfish, weil, um, sie versuchen, um, sie versuchen, um, sie versuchen, um, sie versuchen, um, sie versuchen, um, sie versuchen, um, sie versuchen, um, sie versuchen, um, sie versuchen, um, sie versuchen, um, sie versuchen, um, sie versuchen, um, sie versuchen, um, sie versuchen, um, sie versuchen, um, um, sie versuchen, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um,

00:05:21 Um, you know, do you have to react to that midair and think about, uh, you know, what's where the other team's going to decide where you end up? Or is there sort of a gentleman's agreement between the two teams that like, okay, we're going to contest, but it's going to happen on Mirage Atoile. It's actually quite an interesting one. Well, it's something that we'll, I guess, keep an eye on as we head into the next couple of games of World's Edge, because there may be a world where MXF just decide that maybe we don't want to have that hot drop, hot drop contest. We'll still contest, but we'll...

00:05:49 Und dann können wir uns wieder auf den Lava-Fischer gehen. Und dann können wir uns jetzt mal sehen, dass wir die Legend-Coms sehen können. Ein bisschen von Valkyrie, ein bisschen von Valkyrie, ein bisschen von Valkyrie, ein bisschen von Valkyrie, ein bisschen von Valkyrie, ein bisschen von Valkyrie, ein bisschen von Valkyrie, ein bisschen von Valkyrie, ein bisschen von Valkyrie, ein bisschen von Valkyrie, ein bisschen von Valkyrie, ein bisschen von Valkyrie, ein bisschen von Valkyrie.

00:06:13 Well, I think that's, I mean, that is actually kind of standard if we're looking across the regions for the moment. I think NA ran roughly 50% of that composition. In EMEA, it was a little bit more varied. They had about 30% Bloodhound, Bang, Core Stick. And they also had some other fun picks. Like, we saw a couple of Lifelines come out over in EU. So, who knows? Maybe if we go across the Storm Point, some people will change it up. But yeah, I think 50% is...

00:06:41 Ja, es ist halt so standard, aber gleichzeitig, es ist auch... ...un... ...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un...un

00:07:10 Ich weiß nicht, dass sie sich nicht mehr auf den Weg geben können. Ich weiß nicht, dass sie sich nicht mehr auf den Weg geben können. Ich weiß nicht, dass sie sich nicht mehr auf den Weg geben können. Aber jetzt ist es KBG, dass sie sich auf den Engagement auf den Weg geben, 3-on-2 sind. Und sie sind die anderen auf den Hunt, so... ...Legends Gaming, uh, das hat die Tables auf dem, für sure. Das war massive. Ja, ich glaube, es war einfach nur...

00:07:32 ein throw-away kind of nade, right? Like, hey, we're just trying to get to our spot, leave us alone, toss a nade behind you to try and dissuade the other team, and yeah, it landed. They're actually thinking about going back for the res now, because KPG interestingly didn't want to finish it off. They're too worried about getting their spot and getting priority in zone, so they have taken an evac.

00:07:56 Over to Lava Fischer, they'll get a good spot. And Legends Gaming will walk away with their full trio back up and running. So honestly, kind of good news for both teams. Yeah, we're going to get used to seeing this, aren't we, now as well. As soon as you walk into a building, there's a caustic trap somewhere around the corner. I mean, it's one of those... One of those things, I suppose. It's obviously information for the team that has got that caustic trap. And a minor nuisance for the team that's walking into the building, but...

00:08:24 Ich habe gesagt, auf World's Edge in particular, wir werden viele Caustic sehen, und vielleicht nicht so viel auf Storm Point, aber sogar dann, ich habe noch ein bisschen mehr hier und da gesehen.

00:08:34 And the issue is, the more Caustics you see, you kind of see more Caustics, you know? 100%. It's almost like a self-fulfilling prophecy, right? Where it's like, people just hate playing as other Caustics unless you have your own Caustic. You hear people in the comms all the time, right? They'll be shouting out like...

00:08:55 If there's Caustic Traps or a Caustic Ult that's gone off, they'll be like, hey, okay, you have to push in. This is all you. We can't see anything. We're going to take damage. Like, you have to be the Entry Fragger now as the Caustic. So I think you often will see a lot of those Entry Fraggers on that character. Well, it's an interesting discussion I was seeing as well, I think a couple of days ago, about who should be playing the Bloodhound and who should be playing Fangle as well. Yep.

00:09:22 Um, you know, should your Bloodhound be, like, your best fragger? Or should it be your IGL, because they can get the info easier? Um, and there's lots of conversations going around about that. I don't know that there's been a consensus. Maybe you have a better insight onto that than I do, but from what I've seen, it seems like different teams, like, you know, they'll have different, like, certain players or whatever roles on different, uh, legends, if that makes sense. And there's no, like, across the board, yeah, we're going to have our controller player, for example, playing the Bangalore or the Bloodhound or whatever.

00:09:51 Oh, Legends Gaming, um, trying to go for their second reset of the game, and they get it, Strafing Flamers, uh, revive timer is gonna be getting pretty short at this time. Um, keep going gaming, also going for a revive in the middle building of Lava Fissure. Um, but yeah, going back to that, that talk, now that these, uh, these teams have stabilised, I think there's actually good arguments on both sides. Um.

00:10:19 One of them being, you know, obviously you have more IGLs on MNK, and one of the big advantages that we sort of didn't get to talk about before, of having Bang and Blood on the same team, is now that with Digithreats less prevalent, popping...

00:10:34 Beast of the Hun and having that ultimate, you have Digithreat Sight at long range now, because Digithreats couldn't even do that before, but Bloodhound ult does. So if you've got ARs and you're running and looking at that through smoke at mid to long distances, that can really help having your M&K player on the Bloodhound.

00:10:53 Um, but yeah, by the same token, you know, sometimes you want that, uh, ability to get out, um, and scout forward quickly, uh, and that's what Bangor gives you. So yeah, there's a bit of an overlap here, and I, I agree, it's a hard problem to solve.

00:11:09 Ich glaube, ich glaube, wir sind schon ziemlich early in die ganze Diskussion. Es ist nur ein paar Wochen seit den Changes und seit diesen neuen Compos, oder nicht Neues, aber diese Compositions haben sich wieder zurückkehlt in die Meta. So es wird etwas weiterentwickelt. Und vielleicht in ein paar Wochen, wir haben ein bisschen mehr Zeit, wo wir jetzt sind. Keizu! Ich habe die Bangalore Smokes da, um zu healern, um ein paar damage zu MDY-White.

00:11:36 Sie sehen, dass sie ein bisschen Arbeit haben. Sie haben einen seten Reds und ein paar Setsen von Purples. Also sind wir sehr gut auf die Evo so far.

00:11:46 Ja, das ist egal. Ich glaube nicht, dass die Möglichkeit zu benutzen. Ja, da wird ein Corsic-Ulti-Toss-On in sein, als auch. Ich weiß nicht, dass das ein vieles Wettbewerb ist. Das ist ein vieles Wettbewerb. Ich bin nicht sicher, dass das wirklich vieles Wettbewerb wird, in der Ende von BYY, weil es einfach nur ein paar Sekunden zu langt. Ich denke, ich habe einen Blick. Oh mein Gott, landing Monument in Fragment. Ja, die...

00:12:14 The fact that Phaegu's up to red already, pretty incredible. I can only imagine he got an Evo Cache to get him up there already. I don't think it's even possible to sort of do enough, even grab enough Evo Harvesters and whatnot to be on there otherwise. Also, you know, his teammates will probably be there too. Or even just enough damage, because if you... He's only got 200 damage. Yeah, exactly. Right, so yeah, had to have been, I guess.

00:12:43 Ihr bekommt 1 Ebo Point per damage, so... Every little bit helps, but it's not going to be the biggest of contributors, unless you're having a massive game. And then, I'd say, probably largely, it's going to be coming from your knocks and your kills anyway. Regardless of that fact, we should take a look at the zone as it's pulling back over toward Lava Fischer. Most teams have called that one relatively correctly. We saw the initial movements, at least, going in that direction, and the rest of the squads have filtered into Countdown to take the sloppy seconds, in a sense.

Strategische Anpassungen und Team-Entwicklungen im Mid-Game

00:13:10

00:13:10 You can see Team Burger up there have been sort of quietly flying under the radar a little bit on the northern side of the map. Pricey, Wei and Sharky taking it quite a relaxed approach. And you know, again, this is one of those situations where you kind of have to ask yourself, like, is this the right approach now as opposed to what we would have seen in the previous seasons? Because you might be having a bit more difficulty kind of getting the...

00:13:34 The Evos, like, they're all sitting on blues, which is not a bad place to be necessarily, but we have teams that are running around with, like, double purple and a red, for example, that have been fighting and that have been looting and doing this and that. Um, you know, and you're essentially kind of, like, sitting in this bundle part of your own territory. Uh, maybe you're putting yourself in a bit of a disservice for later on down the track, and, well, here's one thing that we were talking about a little bit earlier. Bloodhound at mid-range with an AR that Havoc means good damage.

00:14:02 Yeah, Turbo as well. I mean, Havoc obviously being one of the big pickups this season. If you can get it with the Havoc, it is deadly. X and Y, they actually took it down there from Whiteflash. But Whiteflash, again, kind of like keep going gaming earlier in this game. Very much happy to just play safe and push back. They don't finish off the kill. So a couple of KP going begging there for these teams. Yeah. I mean, I'll go back to that.

00:14:30 So, being central wasn't necessarily as...

00:14:57 Es ist vielleicht ein bisschen mehr defizit, aber es ist ein bisschen schwerer jetzt. Ja, und... Du hast es nicht gedacht, dass es die ganze Zeit ist, oder nicht. Du hast die Shields, oder? Du hast die Shields, oder? Du hast die Shields, oder? Du hast die Shields, oder? Du hast die Shields, oder? Du hast die Shields, oder? Du hast die Shields, oder? Du hast die Shields, oder? Du hast die Shields, oder? Du hast die Shields, oder? Du hast die Shields, oder? Du hast die Shields, oder? Du hast die Shields, oder? Du hast die Shields, oder? Du hast die Shields, oder? Du hast die Shields, oder? Du hast die Shields, oder?

00:15:24 Vielleicht braucht man das Team Wipe, um zu den nächsten Level zu sein, denn du kannst nicht auf Blue's all-Games. Das ist eine Significant Disadvantage, wie du gesagt hast, wenn du gegen die Teams hast, um zu finden, um, um, zu Level-Up weiter zu werden. Du kannst es auch später in den Spiel gehen, das ist nicht so, wie es funktioniert. Ich meine, du hast das Swap für 30 Sekunden, du hast eine Bonus-Armour, dann geht es um, dann geht es um, was dein Evo ist.

00:15:49 Yeah, anyway, we'll talk about Team Berger, since they're on the topic list at the moment, it seems like. Lost Pricey already, and Wei struggling a little bit, as well, is going to have to flop himself that fast. Beast of the Hunt running out, it doesn't really look like Team Berger in a particularly enjoyable position here. There's not a lot of cover to play with. Deanna Membar, and having to make a pretty big rotation. As we mentioned as well, still sitting on the Blues, and for the most part, we're kind of looking at pretty much most of the Lobby actually sitting on Turples, at least at this point, so...

00:16:19 It'll be a tough game ahead for Inburga. Yeah, it's a shame, too. They've got that position up on the hill over the other side of the train tracks, which is actually an excellent position for this ring. In fact, I would say Godspot may be the building on the other side, potentially. One of the two best spots in the game, and they've only got there as a duo. So they are, you know, with all these bloodhounds in the game, obviously people are going to be scanning them. They are very susceptible to a push.

00:16:48 Not good here for Team Burger. No, certainly not. Bearcourt Gaming also in an engagement at the moment. That one does not last very long. MDYY and R are taken down very quickly indeed. Wow. Jump back over to Countdown for a second and have a look at what's happening there. Got a team down on the low ground having some troubles.

00:17:06 I mean, that was the team we said, right? They should be bullying other teams because they had such a huge early armor advantage. So for them to go down this quickly is, you know, really not playing towards their win condition of, yeah, just trying to win those early fights. Well, it doesn't always go to plan.

00:17:24 Und Armour-ein-everything. Wenn du in eine bad Position bist, ist es noch ziemlich easy zu werden, in einem Spiel wie Apex Legends. Speaking of which, Full Engage, als ein Duo... ...might be... ...suffering... ...much the same kind of a fate. Johnny Dang. Gonna try to drop that here, but... ...realistically speaking, HOW ARE YOU GOING TO GET OUT OF THIS ONE ALIVE?! Das ist ein nice little crack, da. The R99, 100k... 100k?! 100 damage! ...in one clip, but... ...not gonna be enough to really...

00:17:51 Und T4 ist ein Interessant Team für den Lobby. Sie haben sich in den Wettbewerb, und sie müssen in den Wettbewerb machen, wenn sie es nach dem Wettbewerb machen wollen. Sie sind in den Wettbewerb, so sie haben sich in den Wettbewerb. Sie brauchen zwei Lobbys heute, um sich in den Wettbewerb zu machen. Sie haben sich in den Wettbewerb, und sie haben sich in den Wettbewerb. Das war Wonton Dumpling, sie haben sich in den Wettbewerb. Sie haben sich in den Wettbewerb. Sie haben sich in den Wettbewerb. Sie haben sich in den Wettbewerb. Sie haben sich nicht in den Wettbewerb.

00:18:20 Oh, Serenity. This will be a difficult one to make work, but it looks like they've actually found a nice moment of respite. Can't say the same for White Flash as they are taken out, and VK Gaming will be the spoils, or victors of the spoils. Did at least lose one of their members on that engagement, but overall, oh, not too bad. There's a stick from the Arc Star, and that's going to do some real nice work. Unix is taken down, looking for the flush there as well, and it's going to be even better than that. T4 eliminated in the blink of an eye.

00:18:48 They've gone from second top in the lobby to no longer taking any part. Not sure the job is going to get too easy though for VK Gaming here with Legends on the cliff above them. Yeah Legends are covering all the angles right now from up on high and VK yeah was you know Arcstar stick plus some nice work from a disruptor alternator that helped them take out T4 there but as you say I don't know if they're going to make it out of this circle.

00:19:21 Ich mag es ein bisschen einfacher. Aber sie sind auf der ganzen Bühne, und sie müssen ziemlich weit gehen.

00:19:31 The Valkyrie, which obviously does aid in the rotations usually, though in this kind of circumstance is not so sure it will. No Caustic either could potentially be a bit of a problem if they're going to have to go through or into one of these buildings. And Virgo gets taken down on the other side of the map.

00:19:57 You can see where the ring's pulling up in the minimap just to your left there. LU have actually taken over that spot across from the tracks. They're spread out and holding that pretty well, ready to EMP anyone who tries to pull in there. Team Berger did get taken out. They actually took up a less enviable spot, I think, just to play small, but unfortunately it didn't work out for them.

00:20:21 APG haben sich auf ein ganzes Fortress gehalten. Die einzige, dass es noch besser ist, dass es vielleicht ein Caustic ist, vielleicht, an Bangleoil. Und dann haben wir wirklich ein IMPOSSIBLE building zu pushen. Aber mit den Wotsonfensern, es ist noch immer sehr schwer. Das heißt, X&Y zu dealen mit das.

00:20:38 Wir haben noch ein paar Worte gemacht, aber keine realen Worte. Und du kannst nur sehen, wie viel das Gebäude ist. Und dann gibt es all die Visual Clutter mit der Smokes überall. Uh, unfortunately für X und Y, sie sind aus der Option, weil sie jetzt ein paar Mitglieder sind. Und XD, oh, ist jetzt schon ein paar Worte zu bekommen. Und jetzt ist es KPG, die sich wieder auf den Weg zu machen. Und jetzt ist es KPG, die sich wieder auf den Weg zu machen.

00:21:05 Und es ist ein absoluter mess. Was auf der Erde ist das denn hier? In der Mitte of nowhere, oder in der Mitte of everywhere. Und es ist wirklich gut. Ich kann nicht vorstellen, dass ich in IGL zu sein. In das Moment. Ich meine, was du tun? Was du das? Ich bin mir getrennt, um es zu denken. Ich denke, du hast zu tun, um es zu tun, um es zu tun, um es zu tun, um es zu kommen, um es zu kommen, um es zu kommen, um es zu kommen, um es zu kommen, um es zu kommen.

00:21:30 mit einem leg und einem Krupp, weil es einfach war, wie das Einzige Moment für die Teams zu ziehen. Okuma, auf der anderen Seite, ist in eine ziemlich envious Position, eigentlich, weil sie nicht kontrolliert sind.

00:21:46 Ah, he's not doing well. Heck, though. Hanging on for Bare Call Gaming. And getting into the placement points and getting some damage down there as well. Legend Gaming out of the picture. We're down to four squads remaining. Heck is certainly going to get pushed in a second here. Akuma having a bit of a look as to whether or not there could be a third party around. But Killer Paws is ready to take that fight. So far, no connections. Heck is just trying to get out of there. But where do you even go?

00:22:15 There is nowhere to go. All angles covered. Lightning Unicorn on top of the building. EMP is going to go through as well, cause a bit of a ruckus. Set things up nicely for the final remaining three teams. Lightning Unicorn being one of them. They're getting a little bit more active now. They were playing back, just playing their spot on the north side, which made a lot of sense. But now that the other teams...

00:22:36 Sie haben sie zu engagieren. Sie können sie gut sehen. Jack-Cute hat den Top-Bilden. Aber sie hat die Kostik-Ultimate. Sie hat die Kostik-Ultimate. Sie hat die Kostik-Ultimate. Sie hat die Kostik-Ultimate. Sie hat die Kostik-Ultimate. Sie hat die Kostik-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate-Ultimate.

00:23:03 Ich bin mehr als glücklich, dass die Caustik durchgegangen ist. Und es ist noch ein Kuma, in der 1-on-1 ist. Ich glaube, es ist Killapoz. Ja! Killapoz vs. Jack-Cute hier. Sie sind eigentlich für die Revive. Ich denke, dass das hier passiert ist. Nades gehen in durch die WINDOW! Ich bin der Ring-A-Round-A-Rosie. Killapoz-A-Round-A-Round-A-Round-A-Round

Spätphasen-Taktiken und Match-Ergebnisse

00:23:27

00:23:27 Das ist schon passiert. Er hat einen 30-30-Repeater, das ist nicht der idealen Gun, aber Akuma ist noch zu gehen, mit der Victory in der Ende. Das war ein strange End-Zone, aber ein bisschen Spaß. Und da ist es, der erste Spiel in der Wraps. Das war großartig. Akuma ist es gut, mit ein paar Kills. VKGaming hat auch ein paar. Ein paar Teams sind wirklich auf

00:23:55 Ja, was an incredible start to our first match. I was keeping a close eye on VK Gaming there, Genome, because they're sitting about 22nd on the leaderboard. You know, that huge Arcstar stick from them to clean up. You said that they were going to have a little bit of a tough rotate, but they managed to find themselves and wedge themselves under the bridge, and then I kept a close eye, and they did their best little mountain goat technique up and scaled the-

00:24:24 Und dann, ich denke, sie kam in 3rd place mit ein bisschen Kp. So, das wird so ein starkes Start für sie. Weil wir wollen unsere Top 20-team pushen. Und ja, ich bin 22nd auf der Leaderboard, das ist kind of was VK Gaming needed. Aber dann, Akuba, da holding auf für den Clutch, war exceptional, Gino.

00:24:46 Ja, ich meine, das ist ein wirklich guter Punkt zu bringen, Lace. Ich meine, VK Gaming sind in Group C als auch, so das heißt, dass sie die zwei Games, die zwei Series zu spielen haben, also double die Chance zu verbessern und pushen. Aber ja, absolut, diese kinder Results sind was sie brauchen, um zu machen, dass sie eine Berthe in den Region Finals haben.

00:25:08 Ja, Sie können sie hier sehen, sie sind inzwischen. Sie sehen sie dort auf dem Rock. Sie sind nur auf dem Schrauben, für all dieses Chaos zu passieren. Aber Akuma war einfach nur die Arbeit an den Outsiden. Und es war wirklich schrecklich, dass sie, ihr wisst, dass sie, ihr wisst, dass sie, ihr wisst, dass sie, ihr wisst, dass sie den 2v2-Berhöhnen haben. Aber das war nicht so. Aber das war nicht so.

00:25:29 What about this part with Yukoi? He's basically playing PvE. They're not shooting back. What's going on? That's it. Well, you got a triple take in your face. You know, sometimes that happens. But that was exceptional from them. That movement. Yeah, as we go have a look at what Akuma just did. 13 kills and look at the damage.

00:25:48 Killapoz, adding 9 to his total. I don't know if you saw this, Lace, but actually we got the full spreadsheet of all ALGS kills ever released this week. So shout out to Chrono Creative for putting that out. And if you look at Apex South, Killapoz is the overall kill leader for Apex South. And this is, of course, not including Zero and other people who've gone over to NA now. But yeah, he's sitting at 891. So with that game...

00:26:18 He's actually ticked over to 900. That's it. Got some, you know, big shoes to fill. But yeah, Killipod's just doing exceptional work. You know, we've seen it before and we're seeing it again. I'd also like to take a touch on their Lightning Unicorn. I mean, it's second, which is quite good. But yeah, a huge 11 kill game from VK Gaming whilst placing third too. So that's incredible to see. And as we see the leaderboard overall, we have Akuma sitting there in first 13 kills. And then VK Gaming, like I said, 11 kills.

00:26:47 Yeah, so a lot of heavy hitters up the top there. I guess the thing that's, you know, just a little trend, will it become a trend I guess is the question here, is that teams with a lot of placement points also picking up big kill points, right? And I'm wondering, I'm wondering if...

00:27:07 Will this new system mean that the teams who do end up placing later...

00:27:28 Also grab most of the kills and you see sort of a concentration in points. I'm going to keep my eyes peeled for that. That's such an interesting take. I definitely want to see that sort of in action. But you know what? Like it's...

00:27:41 We have a fair few teams there up in the top of the leaderboard that really need this. Another one I want to touch on is Lightning Unicorn. I think they're sitting about 16th. They are above the cusp there, but they might need to hold on because there's other teams that are just very close behind them that we may see in the later date. But we're going to take ourselves a little short break. So you guys sit, chill, relax, and we will see you in a moment.

00:31:43 Welcome back, everyone. What an incredible start to Week 5. This is Groups A vs C. You know, we've had our teams have to endure major changes to Apex Legends as we hit Season 20. This is the final week of our group stages where it's kind of make or break for our teams, Gino. Yeah, there's definitely a couple down the bottom there that, yeah, we won't be seeing next week. We'll have to say goodbye to them after this. I think if you're in Group C...

00:32:09 You know, you've got two chances left to make a dent on that scoreboard and start pushing your points a little higher. But yeah, if you're in Group A or B, only one series left to make sure you crack that top 20. Exactly right. You know, we saw a huge game just from Akuma then. They're currently sitting 9th.

00:32:26 Ja, so...

00:32:52 New season, new stats to go off. So Bloodhound, one of the legends I would say where the perks aren't set in stone, right? You're not going to see that 100% pick rate for certain perks because they're honestly, yeah, there's a bit of, you know, a bit of push and pull, a bit of, you know, some different options to go with here. So as you can see, most...

00:33:12 Bloodhound players who made it to level 2 went for the tactical cooldown there. That makes sense. Essentially, it's good for the team. It's more of a team play. And then Raven's Blessing, if you're perhaps more of an edge-style team, maybe the zone's really far away from you in this particular game, I think that's why you'd go for Raven's Blessing, because you want to enable your Bloodhound player more and give them a bit more fragging potential by having that ult up.

00:33:41 mehr oft. Dann, als wir zu Level 3 kommen, dann sehen wir, dass es ziemlich die gleiche Geschichte ist. Odin's Glare gibt es mehr Informationen für die Team für länger, während Taste of Blood, ist, dass das Bloodhound, wenn du denkst, dass du ein besonders Potent Fragger auf den Bloodhound hast, dann könntest du sie durch andere Teams mit dem Perk.

00:34:08 Yeah, that's really interesting the way you depicted that.

00:34:12 Generally, you'll see a lot of people sort of choose the same picks as they level up their shields. But you were right, teams that may be on the outskirts may want to choose that because, you know, they're going to have more time to rotate in. You know, you see all the white birds everywhere to pick them up to get the ults. So teams may, you know, look at other metas but be completely different because that's just not their play style. So, you know, we're going to see lots of things coming out through that as well. But I hope we can have a look at our quick leaderboard at the moment. Now we're even just going to forget that because we are heading into match number...

00:34:41 2. Let's forget about it. Let's see who climbs to the top. Let's take it away. This is Match 2, World's Edge.

00:35:01 Okay, Akuma, once again, runs straight through MXF. So, um, I think that's two from two now from Akuma on this contest. Once again, uh, we saw it happen over at Mirage 2. Uh, and then we'll be pulling back up to, uh, go through, loot the rest of Lava Fissure and grab that Survey Bacon. Yeah, um, look, again, as you said, two from two for them and more than happy with things there, so, uh,

00:35:30 Again, it's going to be one of those conversations, I guess, that we get to have all day long, but always a bit of a strange one when you're on the receiving end of those kinds of hot drops and you're just losing multiple times. I'm just starting to wonder, should you be doing that? Maybe just go somewhere else? One thing I've noticed is teams are pretty stubborn. I'm trying to think if MXF, I think they were contesting elsewhere in previous weeks. I think they might have been...

00:35:57 Uh, maybe that's in other groups where they were contesting Lava Siphon. Anyway, um, you know, sometimes if one contest doesn't go right, then you've got to start thinking about, okay, well, let's go contest someone else, right? Like, I don't know. Change something up, because if there's no free POIs, you've just got to give it a go. Yep, I guess that's true. Unfortunately, not working out too well for them. I'm going to see a bit of a different pull this time around. I'm going to go hard down to the south toward Lava Siphon.

00:36:21 Seid a lot of the countdown lava fischer type of circles in the last couple of weeks, but changing things up and we're looking pretty good in the spa there. This is the casting room, by the way. Yeah, hold on. Why don't we get to cast from the Spiral Fish? What is that about? I don't know. I mean, you've got to get onto EA and see if they've got the budget for it. I'm sure you can make it happen.

00:36:46 You got a lot of faith in me then. Just picture it as the next innovation in Apex Legends broadcasting. I mean, that's not enough. You know, it helps improve blood circulation. I'll even bring my swimsuit Lobo cosplay. Okay. Alright. I don't know if that's a selling point or not. Yeah, maybe Twitch chat can tell us about that one. One, if you want to see, you know, Elfisher in the spa. Maybe two, if you don't.

00:37:14 Oh, there's going to be plenty of ones in the chat. Either way, we'll take a look at the compositions. Seeing again, what was 35% actually coming through for the Bang Corsic Bloodhound comp. So not even the 50% that we sort of were initially talking about at the start of the last game. A couple of these obviously are duos, but that's going to change things up a little bit there as well. But still seems to be quite a spread here in Apex South, which is always going to be pretty fun.

00:37:41 Ja, das ist gut. Ja, definitivt ein bisschen Wotzen. Und ich denke, das ist... Oh, ich habe gerade gesehen, Akuma, eine Interruptor für den Alternator. Ja, ich denke, dass das ist, wie stark Wotzen upgrades sind, in der Perk System sind. Ich meine, Falling Stars, Individually. Possibly eine der besten Perkst du kannst in der gesamten Spiel. Wenn die Gen geteilt, die Interceptor Pylon geteilt,

00:38:10 Ja. Ich liebe Arctars. Ja, ich liebe Arctars. Ich liebe Arctars.

00:38:32 That's an interesting choice. Yeah, well, I mean, dude, like, Sheila starts purring when you get the upgrades for that, and the level 3 upgrade that allows your entire team to reload faster when you're behind the amped cover. Honestly, pretty incredible. You know, I mean, like I said, I've always been a fan of Valkyrie, and I think prior to that as well, I was a fan of Ashe. I've always been a fan of those, like, mobility legends.

00:38:54 Ich war kind of hoping that Ashe was going to come back in, but I haven't really seen much of that, so. Ja, teams were definitely thinking about it. You saw a bit of experimentation early on, because the arc snare changes are pretty good. I just feel like she probably needed a bit more for her ultimate, because that's sort of enabling your team, and enabling your team is what you need in competitive pro-level play.

00:39:21 Ich liebe das Meta, wo Ash war einer der go-to pick. Die Mobility, die das Ultimate hat. Es hat immer gesucht, dass es schon sehr fun hat. Man sieht ein Team, ein Team, auf einem Roof, neben jemandem. Es ist immer ein bisschen Spaß. Aber vielleicht in einem anderen Tag, wir werden sehen. Ich bin sicher. Als nächstes Mal, Ash wird wieder in der Meta kommen. Es ist ein bisschen ein slowerer Spiel so far, hat es? 19 Teams live.

00:39:46 Little note there as well, of course, we have the return of Tom Young-Kung. Say goodbye to IBG and back to our favourite hotpot. Yeah. Well, I mean, it depends who you ask.

00:40:02 My girlfriend, uh, she says Chinese hotpot is the only way to go. Every other hotpot is fake. So, I'll just leave that. I tried it out for the first time after Champ, Birmingham. And, like, I literally had Tom Young-Kung, uh, and it was, it was actually, it was delicious. So, I get it, I get it. Well, VK Gaming are going to set themselves up pretty comfortably. Love to have this kind of, like, downtime when you've got the Corsic on your side. Set up all of those traps.

00:40:33 Lightning Unicorn, auf der Move ein bisschen. Und sie werden jetzt ein bisschen ein Stausch hier auch. MDY, uh, zu pushen auf der Brücke. Wir haben viele Ultis aufgerufen, überall. Rockets, EMPs, alles geht um. MDY, doch, haben sich ein member verloren. Stopp Gatsch, das jetzt auf, doch. Wir werden jetzt sehen, die resten von Lightning Unicorn finden, um zu finden, um zu gehen. Und, uh, sie werden nicht ein sehr guter Job, aber, unfortunately, Jack-Cute ist jetzt auch, so...

00:41:02 Just comes down to Lalabang, trying desperately to survive, going up and down, using that terrain to the advantage. The Corsic trap will cause problems. And Lightning Unicorn eliminated. Yeah, wow, the armor swap there from Joey was crucial. Both of the MDY Black players were very low. Lalabang, full health. And yeah, came up the zip. You know, really needed to just grab her down.

00:41:27 ...quickly. But unfortunately, yeah, the finish in the arm swap came through too fast. And that means MDY Black have been able to get off the respawn as well. So Orgenstern back in action. MDY White not too far away. It doesn't look like they're going to be pushing anything.

00:41:48 And T4. Well, they're not doing too bad for themselves overall in the lobby sitting there at 9th. But I'm not sure that's really going to be enough to get us too excited about their prospects going into next week. You'd really need to see them probably go top 3, top 5, something like that in both of these lobbies. To be able to make it back into the top 20 of the overall standings. They started well in the last round as well, but just kind of got run over. So...

00:42:16 Hope to see a little bit more from them here. Okay, apparently, uh, you know, Zone Evo Charging is not completely dead, as we see Serenity all the way down the bottom here in stacks. Just grabbing some Evo Harvesters to push them closer to the Reds. Currently they're 1300 off.

00:42:44 Und sie sind nur hinter Whiteflash, über 1,000 auf Purples selbst, so wenn sie in den Backen sind, dann haben wir die Drop. Ich glaube, eine Frage ist, ob sie eine Vault-Key ist, ob sie sich durch eine Vault-Key ist. Die Vault-Key ist jetzt noch ein Lock.

00:43:09 Nein, es sieht nicht aus, also keine Chance zu holen. Das Evo Cache, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es, wenn es.

00:43:29 Sie müssen versuchen das Cross-Serenity zu machen. Es ist eigentlich ein 2-1-Split mit Legacy und Beauty opten zu pushen, aber es ist besser geworden. Sie würden sie durch einen Crossfire gehen. Sie sehen, Legend ist auf der anderen Seite. Sie hat eine Sightline, als auch. So Serenity ist gleich zurück in die Cave, das wird ihnen ein semblant für den Meanwhile. Aber sie werden sie bald wiederholen. Es ist etwas, um die Inevitable, es fühlt sich jetzt.

00:43:57 Ja, ich meine, sie haben die Ring-Info, richtig? Sie haben die Beacon gewonnen, während sie in die Zone sind. Da ist eine Stax, so sie wissen, dass sie sich über den Weg zu der Seite sind. Sie wissen, dass es nicht wirklich viel Platz ist, für sie zu kommen. So, um, ich bin für einen Kp. Over hier zu Whiteflash. Das ist die Play.

00:44:23 Dom Myeong-Koong, MDYY, vielleicht sind die zwei Teams zu beat, auf der Moment. Das Minimap ist da.

00:44:32 Interessant to see how Team Burger can go in this game. Didn't really feel like they got the greatest opportunities in the last one. Zone's going to shift hard up to the north as well though. So MDY Black, I think that they're going to be the big benefactors of that. And we will get to see the rotation coming through from Buggy, Legacy and Jesko that we were hoping to see earlier this time though. It's an aerial rotation rather than on foot. This will be a risky landing position.

00:44:58 Oh, good spot, though. There's no one in this caravan, by the way. You can see, obviously, it's set up with the fences and everything, but they have somehow identified that correctly, that it is a playable spot in the next zone. The zone will be shifting up. It looks like when we had that fight earlier on top of the train tracks, it might be a zone that pulls towards that direction. Legends Gaming eating an EMP. No one pushing off the back of it just yet, so they'll be given the opportunity.

00:45:27 ...to reset. Patience of Virtue here for strafing flame, though... ...eventually will get peaked. No connections coming from it. That's more of a skirmish, really, than anything else. No overcommitment. Legends are doing a pretty good job of, I guess at this point, really just... ...showing off their muscles, you know, doing some flexing in the mirror. Everyone's having a bit of a look and saying, oh, not sure if we want to push that. Those guys look kind of strong.

MDY Black's Aggressive Play and Akuma's Strategic Positioning

00:45:53

00:45:53 Auf der anderen Seite der Coyne, MDY Black ist mehr als glücklich mit dem Karavan. Augenstern, bereits findet die Initial Knock, und Full Engage are völlig aus dieser Runde. Wow! Aggressiv push? Ja, Augenstern ist ja noch auf der Top der Tracks. Sie wollen nicht die Position auf, aber sie haben... Sie haben... Sie haben... Sie haben... Sie haben... Sie haben... Sie haben... Sie haben... Sie haben...

00:46:16 Uh, so many resources in the meantime. So, that's a pretty big play for M.D.Y. Black over here. Uh, now they can just get back up top and start surveying the land around them. Here goes Killipoz leading the charge. He's the tip of the spear right next to Ukoyian Crusader. Was he on the other side there, or was there a third player at the other end of the building? I might tell, but...

00:46:40 By the way, Akuma is not going to push in just yet. I'm more than happy to take up some residence on the northern side of this zone and keep themselves relatively healthy. Alright, why don't we listen in with Akuma here and see what their play is for this next phase of the game. Getting pushed by the team from right or left or not. What about under the house?

00:47:08 Oh, you get nade sucked really easily. Yeah. And then you get pushed out really quickly. It's like pretty safe here. Fucking safe on me. Yeah, yeah. Not early though, right? No, no, no, no. Definitely not early. You just gotta care these guys don't fucking swing, bro. Yep. Fucking idiots. You gotta be careful. One of you can play here. One of you can play here. I'm playing back there. Luke, you play here on my side. I'm gonna play that side. Yeah, yeah. Someone flying.

00:47:35 Fliegen, Fliegen, Fliegen, Fliegen!

00:48:02 Ich habe Angles, auf ihr? Ja, die Diver. Ja, ihr seid von Siphon. Ja, ihr seid von Siphon.

00:48:26 Ja, auf mein Seite, cracked. Bang, bang, bang, bang. Wir haben wirklich gute Schots, wir haben wirklich gute Schots. Kannst du nicht. Ja, danke. Ich kann nur noch, ich kann nur noch, ich kann nur noch. Ja, das ist nur noch. Ja, einfach nur noch. Ja, einfach nur noch. Ja, einfach nur noch. Ja, einfach nur noch. Ja, einfach nur noch. Ja, einfach nur noch. Ja, einfach nur noch.

00:48:55 Ja, ich kann sie sehen. Ja, ich kann sie sehen.

00:49:08 Ich bin nade. Ich bin nade. Ich bin nade. Ich bin nade. Ich bin nade, ich bin nade. Ich bin nade, ich bin nade. Ich bin nade, ich bin nade. Ich bin nade, ich bin nade. Ich bin nade, ich bin nade. Ich bin nade, ich bin nade. Ich bin nade, ich bin nade. Ich bin nade, ich bin nade. Ich bin nade, ich bin nade.

Legends Gaming dominiert, Akuma in guter Position

00:49:29

00:49:29 Akuma in a fantastic position here. The ring pulls very close to them. They only really have to worry about final start in the building next to them. You can see the big red banner at the top of the screen popping up pretty consistently. Now we're down to 10 squads. Team Ferga looking much better this time around. We talked about them getting stuck on the triple blues in the last game. Now they've got triple reds. Sharky Pricey Way all looking hot to trot really. Legends Gaming may be suffering

00:49:57 In ein bisschen anders, kapasite. EASY FLASH, mit einem großen Spray. Er hat das Hemlock in der Ende, um zu Ende zu Ende. Und Legends Gaming ist wirklich in der thick of Dinge an der moment. Ich meine, sie sind jetzt redlining es heute. Every single fight. Sie sind gewinnen viele Fights, aber jederzeit haben sie so viele Resets bei ihnen. Und sie werden sie immer wieder auf. Ich meine, ich glaube, sie sind in der 5sten Spiel. Aber es dauert 4 Resets zu kommen.

00:50:25 Look, honestly props to them for being able to win these fights and then continuously get back up and just keep going. Look by the sword, die by the sword. Dexa, of course, on the Caustic is more than happy to be fighting in this kind of a situation. There's smokes and gas all over the place, but he does not care about that at all. Just holding that W key and trying to get into the thick of things, but Tom Yum Kung eventually gonna be pushed back.

00:50:51 Maybe they're more than happy with the pushing back that they've done because they've now sort of taken up residence in this position underneath the pylons. Legends Gaming are still fighting.

00:51:03 Okay, ein bisschen von der Lüte zu bekommen ist, dass man ja, man sieht die Weapons auf dem Weg hier ist, Serenity. Sie sind einfach nur hinter dem, wo Legends Gaming ist jetzt. Aber Tom Young-Kung ist gerade auf dem anderen Seite. Ja, die Barrels sind nicht lange lange, aber sie sind einfach nur gebrochen. Aber auch Tom Young-Kung ist einfach durch die Zone gegangen. Sie sind auch in eine Unförtliche Situation, und sie werden auch in der Lage getrennt.

00:51:33 So it's just not quite going to push far enough to dislodge the guys sitting under the bottom there. But Legends Gaming up on top are having a ball of a time. I mean, this is the perfect spot to have a bow check in, really, isn't it? Long range, high ground, advantage. Nade's getting tossed down the bottom there as well. And Easy Flash looks like he wants to try to get aggressive. Getting those supporting shields tossed on through as well from scraping flame will make life pretty easy in the end. Serenity do get eliminated and Legends Gaming are just farming in this round.

00:52:04 Good spot for them. Akuma also with a good spot. They've moved up on the Siphon side and have taken the high ground over there. Final start still in that building as well as MDY Black still up on top of the train track. So five spots left alive now. Oh, another down. It's a strafing flame. We've seen that happen so many times today.

00:52:30 A little bit of back and forth. We've only got five teams left alive now, so zone relatively large for the amount of teams that are still up. Action slows down for a little bit until we go back to Legends Gaming, who just don't seem to be taking their foot off the gas at all. It's Akuma that unfortunately got into their site this time around. And Legends are doing a great job of controlling the high ground, aren't they?

00:52:54 They are, they're doing so well. I mean, that was a very swift push to take out Akuma, who are in a strong position. Also, having a look at Wonton Dumpling down the bottom, a horrible Game 1 for them. They're looking to turn their fortunes around here in Game 2. Nice! A little nade there on Tree Clean. Yeah, a little bit of spam coming through as well. Peak Guard, he's low, but doesn't have to worry about that at the moment. Just has to try to control the space.

00:53:20 Wir haben noch ein guter Team, aber es gibt noch einen anderen Team. Es ist nicht gut für Wundong Dumpling hier. Sie sind halt der Meat in der Sandwich. Sie sind hart zu versuchen, an diesem Punkt zu versuchen. Es ist das Moment, dass es das Wettbewerben wird. Und dann ist es wieder wieder ein Crack. Legends Gaming ist nicht einfach auf alle Wingman-Shots. Sie sind alle Connecting. EZ-Flash ist wirklich frei, und Legends sind einfach...

00:53:46 They've gone from like 15 points to 35 in one game. That was just utter decimation from Legends.

00:53:53 Wow, incredible work from Legends to pull back in. That was just a monstrous game by then. Yeah, indeed. Not really much more to say. I felt like we were kind of just watching the Legends highlight reel at this point. It just didn't stop at all, did it? So, I guess, yeah, I mean, really, I don't know what you thought about that one, Lace, but that really did feel like pretty much that entire end zone. It was like, anyone else that you...

00:54:20 You swap the camera to, they're kind of just getting owned. And then you swap back to Legends and it's like, oh, these guys are farming. Just didn't stop. That's exactly why he's always the top fragger, the top damage dealer. Just doing some 360 wingman kills right at the end. I think he had about nine kills with five squads left. So I'm not too sure how much they picked up altogether. But it just seemed like they were swimming through the competition right there. Also, I think it was MDY Black.

00:54:50 Ja, definitiv. Ich meine, es ist etwas zu tun, dass wir jetzt noch ein paar Worte tun haben. Es ist nicht nur um die Top 20 zu machen, sondern auch um die Top 20 zu kommen, um die Top 20 zu kommen.

00:55:19 Also, wenn man es in die Top 8 in der nächsten Woche geht, dann kann man die Möglichkeit sein. Ich glaube, das ist alles gut, aber...

00:55:37 Fame and Gloria, I guess, is another thing.

00:56:07 Das ist genau das, was ich sagen. Es ist wie immer, wenn wir von Legends, nichts passiert, oder jemand wurde getötet. Und dann, wir gehen nach Legends und es ist wie, diese Leute bekommen 3 Kills.

00:56:22 5 Sekunden und dann sind sie auf den nächsten Team und dann auf die nächste Fight. 3,000, almost 3,000 damage von EZ Flash, wie ich gesagt habe, hat eine große, große, große, große, die Damage gemacht wurde. Was wirklich sehr gut ist hier auch. Man kann sich das Supportive-Style kommen durch von Strafen-Flame. EZ Flash ist in den Fällen, in den Fällen, in den Fällen, die Heels kommen durch von Strafen-Flame. So, die Composition wirklich gut ist, da für Legends auch. Sie sind etwas, was ich glaube, dass man könnte, was vielleicht...

00:56:47 nicht der Standard Meta an der Moment, oder zumindest nicht der Prevailing Trend, wenn es das Korsig-Bangalor und Bloodhound-Composition ist. Sie haben etwas ein bisschen anders gemacht. Evidently, sie haben einen Weg zu machen. Sie haben sich herausgefunden, wie sie das Kompositions-Best-Effekt haben. Und ja, das ist ein großes Spiel von ihnen, direkt zu 40 und dann zu der Top-Lobby, wo, ganz ehrlich, es fühlt sich, dass sie irgendwie belong.

Legends Gaming's Dominanz und Strategie

00:57:11

00:57:11 Exactly right. And this is the last time we'll see Legends Gaming as well because, you know, they're a part of our Group A. So the six games they played today is it for them. But, you know, like we said, they've solidified themselves quite nicely in first place. Lightning Unicorn as well, I believe. This is the last time we see them. So I believe they're sitting. They're in our top 20 teams, but they might need to do something sort of to just really push themselves above because we've got a couple of teams such as MDY Black who really want to get in those top 20 teams.

00:57:40 Aber haben die nächsten Standings, die nächsten Gruppen werden, von Gruppe C. Es gibt viel auf der Linie für unsere Teams, die letzten sechs Matches sind.

00:57:50 Ja, genau. Lots to play for. Obviamente, still conversations to be had for those teams in the middle of the pack, or the bubble, or the bottom of the pack. I don't know, it depends on what you want to say. I think for me, they're kind of toward the bottom of the pack if you're just trying to push your way into that top 20. But those are the big ones, and yeah, MDY Black having a decent one there is nice to see for them, but more to do, obviously, with still four games to play, at least for this lobby.

00:58:15 Exactly right. And as we just finished up game number two, we'll take ourselves a little short break and we will see you for the final game on World's Edge.

00:58:30 Wer wird die Team beantworten die Titels von TSM? Von Legacy zu einer Dynasty ist jetzt fertig für TSM!

00:59:26 I think we're starting to see a bit of a rivalry develop in Apex Legends. As these trophies just keep going back and forth. Dark Zero, TSM. It's always one of those two teams. Unbelievable final we've had here today. Oh!

01:00:22 I don't fear anything. Can you say the same?

01:02:28 Ja, 22 kill win. I don't know, man. Is that...

01:02:56 Is that like one of the biggest we've seen this split? It certainly would be up there. It's a lot. Either way, yeah, no surprises to see Easy Flash up the top of the damage shards. Player K in there as well from Legends. And Kumo have been quietly having a pretty good game too. So AKM kind of jumping in as well. Top three. I mean, we're only two games in and Easy Flash is already at 4,158. So that number is going to grow pretty substantially over the course of this lobby.

01:03:25 Ich weiß nicht genau, was der höchste Nummer war. Ich glaube, es war 11,000 bis 12,000 für Jen Burton, wie vorhin in der Zeit. Aber jetzt ist er noch nicht so gut, dass er oder nicht so gut ist. So, wir müssen uns aufhören.

01:03:40 Yeah, exactly right. You know, we always see Easy Flash pull out some insane damage and then to have, you know, Play K as well do it on the exact same team, you know that they're absolutely obliterating it. But, you know, we're going to get ourselves back into the action. We are in match three, the final match here for World's Edge. Let's take it away.

01:03:59 Ja, es ist jetzt ein MxF und Kummer wieder einmal mit Mirage Atoile. Das ist ein, ich will sagen, 2-0 so far für Kummer, aber mit einem B-2020 Crusader, ich werde nicht super excited about taking a fight. Das ist nicht genau so, ein bisschen schneller start zu this contest. Ja, die anderen sind schon über ziemlich schnell.

01:04:23 Ja, genau. Ja, genau. Ich bin, P2020 Longbow. Ich bin jetzt der Mozambi für Artoria hier auf MXF. Ah, das ist wirklich schwer. Ja, MXF ist schon wieder zu starten. Sie haben das 1-for-1, aber Artoria ist jetzt auch. Er ist jetzt einfach nur zu einem 1-on-2 für MXF. Es gibt eine Rez auf dem Ruf. Das ist wirklich so, dass das zu sein ist. Oh, das hat es aus! Achumar, zumindest nicht. Die B2020 ist aus!

01:04:52 They're trying their best. Oh my god, the 106! Unfortunate! MXF surviving for the moment. But Yukoi has the health advantage. He doesn't want to take a fight. Trying to shoot through the knockdown. But he can't get there. Akuma takes it in a clean 3-0 sweep. But damn, dude. It was a 44 no scope. And then a 106 headshot to almost bring that back for MXF. So valiant effort.

01:05:22 Ja, Valiant and Effa, aber am Ende des Tages ist es noch 3 von 3 für Akuma, so... Wo ist die... Wo ist die Valiant? Sie werden, glaube ich, 0 Punkte für dieses Lobby so far... ...which ist nicht ein schönes Platz zu sein, nach drei Games. By the way, Akuma... Ich bin froh, dass das... Sie können jetzt, um, auf ihre Leutung... ...ein der Ball rollen, auf Game 3. Und look, Akuma, für ihre Meinung, ich habe zu sagen...

01:05:49 Ja, und ich glaube, dass sie die Zonen in Game 1 haben, um, eine Lava-Fissure-Zone ist, aber... Du wißt du, was ich überrasst, ist, wenn du das, wenn du das, wenn du das, wenn du das, wenn du das, wenn du das, wenn du das, wenn du eine Lava-Fissure-Zone bist, um, wenn du eine Lava-Fissure-Zone bist?

01:06:15 Ja, der Coach should be. Ja, der Coach should be.

01:06:43 Und so, wie es so genug zusammen ist, dass du kannst, wenn du musst. Ja, fair genug. Aber das ist nicht so etwas, was wir sehen. Vielleicht etwas für... ...later auf, um, nach der Track. Aber ich glaube, es gibt nicht so viele Möglichkeiten, um diese gleiche Lobby zu sehen... ...durch dieser Splitt. So, es wird nicht so gut sein. By the way, VK Gaming...

01:07:06 Ich glaube, wir sind in der Fall von Surveikamp. Es ist auf der anderen Seite der Engagement. Ein paar Chipshots in der Richtung. Ich glaube, es ist wirklich eine große Herausforderung. Ich glaube, es ist wirklich eine große Herausforderung. Ich meine, sie hat 9-5-1 gemacht. Und Kassa hat den Krypto-Drone mit der Banner genommen. Unfortunately, der nearest Respawn Beacon ist, wie...

01:07:31 wo God Hand ist. So, ich weiß nicht, ob sie vielleicht wollen und die Re-Spawn Beacon gehen weiter nach den Train Tracks, vielleicht sogar nach Epi-Center. Aber bei der gleichen Zeit, sie haben einen tollen Spot in der Zone. Also, du willst das auch nicht geben, als ein Duo. Es wird schwierig hier für VKG. Okay, sie hat Re-Spawn. Wo ist das? Oh, was es? Oh, did sie haben eine Mobi? Ja, sie hat eine Mobi.

Legends Gaming's Strategie und Team Burger's Triumph

01:07:59

01:07:59 Legends are kind of ready and waiting for that. Though, no real engagement happening just yet. Legends have actually decided to move to one of the other buildings here in the Survey Camp. Super safe decision, I like that. I don't know if you saw on the graphic up the top, there was 95% pick rate for the Bangalore. The only team that hasn't picked a Bangalore for this Lobby is Full Engage, which is the Duo.

01:08:27 So, yeah, essentially 100%. I wonder if there were a trio, would it be 100%? Yeah, I mean, like, I think, honestly, I know I've had this chat with Hugo from Apex Status about, you know, using the sort of stats, and, like, I think you basically just throw out the 2-0 stats, right? Because obviously you have to make weird decisions there with two people to try and...

01:08:46 Um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um,

01:09:14 Das ist ein bisschen ein Problem.

01:09:17 Not sure if that's gonna be resable. Certainly not finishable, at least for Serenity here, but there's a couple of teams that are sort of floating around. Serenity have to deal with Rudine, who was actually on their roof for a moment there, and has been found out. Yugi's getting that one. Serenity are kind of on the hunt right here. You can see Hex just trying to book it. Belkin's gone north, Hex gone south. Serenity well and truly having out their little spot of territory on the map by dislodging...

01:09:46 Their opponents, Bearclaw Gaming. We'll see teams up in the tunnels here with the zone pulling very northerly. Keep going gaming, final start. These are two teams we're looking at right now and then further over towards the respawn beacon just outside of the northern tunnels. We've caught Lightning Unicorn as well. Okay, Hopdog, they're going in for it.

01:10:18 Final start Taking it slow at the moment, it has to be said. These are the hunts taken away. Oh, but there's a good amount of damage straight up from the Havoc and they want to push off the back of that. They recognize the advantage they've got. There's the first knock, second should come through pretty quickly here, although I wasn't expecting it to go back in that direction. Selkart is able to trade and it's still going to be the two on one to deal with for final start.

01:10:43 Ja, ich bin nicht sicher, das ist zu gut für Selka. Es ist einfach nicht so gut für Selka.

01:11:12 They actually have a huge amount of territory to play with on the northern side of the map here. Almost the entire train tunnel is in their control. Later on in the game, they're going to have to move out, but for now, very happy. Yeah, they don't want to stay in there for too long, Elfish, because where the zone's shifting, it's going to the right of the respawn beacon, but the other side of the train tracks are in, and that is one of the best plots to play from every single time this circle is in. So, Lightning Unicorn, you know, they're...

01:11:40 They don't have that info right now, and there's not a survey, sorry, a ring console anywhere around that they can probably get to. So, yeah, there's a couple survey beacons back in Skyhook, but for them, they really want to move when they see this next circle get revealed. It's very important to take that spot, because Bearclaw Gaming are out there as a duo up the top, but in L, you just move a little bit across to the right there.

01:12:08 Um, I'm, you know, might actually have to back them for this game. They're going to hedge their bets at least for now, right? They're going to take it slow and see what happens. Once that information comes through, then yeah, they're definitely going to jump in on that opportunity. But, you know, those things can still go wrong against a duo. It's been a bit of a faster paced game.

01:12:29 In comparison to our last, we lost four teams already. A lot of shenanigans happening around in the Survey Camp. But some teams still coming up from Fragment over toward Landslide. You've got T4 there as well on the move in. But for the most part, we decided to get that congregation toward the northern side of the map. MDYBlack here fighting for their control of the tunnel against Overlook Entertainment. We've already lost one player and it's a decent start for MDYBlack as they are. They're going to get themselves another one. Vasey.

01:12:58 Es ist auf...

01:13:01 ...or off... ...for the races, I suppose, at this point. On the trot is probably where I should have gone with that one. But, uh, yeah, out of the way, that's for sure. And, uh, not a particularly enthralling fight, really, for overlooked entertainment. They kind of just capitulated. Nah, he's popping about on the way down. It does actually get out. Uh, I think the question is, does he get spotted out by Team Burger, who are currently sitting in Skyhook... ...prowling for easy kills like that one to come their way. Yeah, Pricey definitely saw him.

01:13:30 Pricey definitely saw him, but Vasey's on the way out anyway, so not going to see much of a chase from Team Berger there. Yeah, Berger, they actually have that ring in for us. If they start pushing up towards those northern tunnels, they could play for one of those great spots up north. Hmm.

01:13:52 Oh no!

01:14:19 B.C. ist auf der RUN AGAIN! Und dieses Mal, er macht es nicht aus. Wae picks up an easy kill. Und jetzt haben sie eine Minute zu sehen, ob sie können weitergehen. Obwohl, sie haben die Bloodhound da auf Wae, so sie können einfach starten diese Scans, clearing die Position in front of sie. Potenzial wird das Fight mit Lightning Unicorn. Back in Survey Camp, however, wir haben vier Teams. Essentially, eine in jedem Major Building.

01:14:49 Tom Yum Kung is one of those, or at least they're trying to fight their way in. They're actually going to have to settle for playing underneath for the moment, at least until they reset. Starz gets tossed on in as well, and that's a good crack. Asia's also found the knock onto Bugi, so that'll be the go signal, I'd say, for Tom Yum Kung. Oh no, Jesko's dropped as well. The issue is going to be, when you're fighting in the spot like this, there's always going to be third parties coming through, and X and Y will take that opportunity and try to run with it.

01:15:15 x and y also have to be a little bit aware that wonton dumplings coming up behind us this is going to get messy very quickly indeed tom yum kung are still holding on asia i've lost a couple of players asia is just popping off with the hammer points mozam through the smoke right now critical damage being dished out by the bangalore player i don't know if it's going to be enough to keep them alive though i mean you've got wonton dumpling here that also want to

01:15:42 So they try their hand at this engagement. So, out of the frying pan, into the fire. Kind of like Genome's last night, hot pot. But unfortunately, it's not going to be lasting too long when they're on offer. And Monton Dumpling will try to continue that momentum rolling their way forward as well onto X and Y, who are causing them problems in Epicenter. Maybe they have to take a step back here to try and find time for that res.

01:16:08 Das war's für den Rest des Spiels. Das war's für den Rest des Spiels. Das war's für den Rest des Spiels. Das war's für den Rest des Spiels. Das war's für den Rest des Spiels. Das war's für den Rest des Spiels. Das war's für den Rest des Spiels. Das war's für den Rest des Spiels.

01:16:38 So they can and The ring is actually pulled back. So, you know, we were sort of I was sort of operating under the assumption I was gonna keep pulling north because we do see that quite a lot But this one is actually pulled Way far back in towards white flash in the building. So that is a that's an absolute lottery win there for that

01:16:59 Das ist ein weirdes Pull, ist es? Es ist. Ja, so them und God Hand sind in fantastische Positionen. Team Burg, wie Sie sehen, hat sich die Dose-Dose und hat sich um Lightning Unicorn um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um

01:17:27 Ich weiß nicht, ob sie getrennt von Lightning Unicorn werden. Es gibt viel Platz für Lightning Unicorn zu cover.

01:17:35 We'll see what ends up happening, but... Well now, Broga feel like they're in the best position, considering that they have the quietest side of the zone. Legends though, as they usually are, are gonna be a team that's gonna be in the middle of the fights. Hasn't been such a big game from them just yet, but that is about to change. There's a lot of teams floating around.

01:18:07 Der Vorteil für Legends ist, dass sie nicht zu viel über die Vorstücke haben, mit ein bisschen mehr Raum zu spielen. Ja, also ein guter Platz für den Gen. Obviamente, den Gen kann die Barrels eaten. Die Vorstücke Alten, oder Bangalore Alten, wie das. So, da ist eine kommt, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um,

01:18:36 We wonder how many of those are getting tossed out at the moment t4 also getting taken down in the meanwhile and legends are on the move they want to take the fight forward alternate up golden mag or easy flash it's not a bad spot to be in

01:18:51 Yeah, they actually lost the second gen though. And of course the ultimate comes in. So in the end they can't find a safe spot for the gen. Because we saw PlayAK popping an ultimate accelerant to get the second one up immediately. Now that's gone down and now they're in Struggle Street.

01:19:10 Ich weiß nicht, dass sie okay sind. Die Nades und all das Schiff-Damage sind, aber es ist nicht so, dass sie ein Immediate Threat zu gehen. Sie haben einfach aus dem Moment der Respite geöffnet. Lots of Boxes zu lösen. Oh, aber da ist ein Team Underneath, und das wird dann wo sich das ein bisschen falsch anfangen. Legends Gaming kämpft für ihre Leben. Somehow, Player K. ist still alive. Eventually wird es ticker, ich glaube, zu etwas Corsic Gas, in der Ende.

01:19:37 Es ist VK Gaming, die sich in der Zeit zu nehmen. Ich denke, sie sind auf der Back-Foot. Ich denke, sie wussten, dass ohne den Watsons die Hilfe von den Watsons, sie hatten zu gehen, aber sie konnten. Weil Whiteflasher in da mit einem Catalyst ist, um, zu viel, zu viel, zu viel, zu viel, zu viel, zu viel, zu viel, zu viel, zu viel. Und als Sie sehen, es war zu lange, um, dass es zu lange, um, dass sie das tun haben. Und deshalb, MDY White ist, um, zu verabschieden, um, das zu machen. Und deshalb, MDY White ist, um, zu verabschieden.

01:20:05 Ja, es war VK Gaming, aber jetzt ist es in Kontrollen von MDY White. Das ist ein Team, das wir jetzt ansehen an. Nice fight to win for them. Also, sie bekommen Purple Evo, für die letzte member. Du typisch will, wenn du an About Purple bist. At least at Purple, als wenn du an die Blues in der finalen Skirmation. So, sie hat das geschafft. Und wie Sie sehen, sie hat viel Loot, das sie kann hoover up.

01:20:34 Es gibt noch ein bisschen Zeit, auch zu spielen. Auch noch ein Armorswappen. Ich bin froh, dass die Armorswappen noch in den Spiel sind, nach dem, die wir in Season 20 haben. Ich bin froh, wenn sie nicht geholfen sind, wenn sie nicht geholfen sind. Aber für den Momenten, MDYY, mit all den Lootboxen, sind alle zu setzen. Wow, das ist ein Dumpling, zu stellen. Sie haben noch ein Damage verloren, aber...

01:21:02 Das ist ein guter Platz für die Moment. Das ist ein guter Platz für die Empty YY. Ich meine, sie einfach chillen. Sie wirklich nicht haben zu tun, als sie sich auf die Hände zu halten. Sie sind, als sie auf die Hände zu halten. Sie sind, als sie auf die Hände zu halten sind. Ich meine, ja, aber sie sind in die Hände zu halten. Sie sind in die Hände zu halten, aber sie sind in die Hände zu halten. Ich meine, ja, aber sie sind in die Hände zu halten, und sie sind in die Hände zu halten.

01:21:24 Das ist ein Spiel, weil ihr habt, wie Lightning Unicorn, die hier sind auf den Rocken. Und einfach von ihnen, Berger sind in ein ähnliches Position, aber sie haben sich zu verlieren. Er wurde vollständig, also Pricey und Sharky sind da, die Banging und Caustic sind, und jetzt haben sie den Ultimates online. Sie haben Wonton Dumpling, oder zumindest einen Spieler, zu spielen. Sie sehen das? Sie sind komplett split, nur Gugu.

01:21:51 oder Peak God, uh, sind jetzt unter Team Berger und dann ein paar von den Team einfach nur in die building. So, ich denke Lightning Unicorn, uh, ist in einer der besten Spots jetzt. Sie haben ziemlich vieles zu spielen. Ich weiß nicht, dass der Look of Whiteflash mit dem Bowcheck ist, es hat viele Schöpfe gemacht. Wir haben ein paar Schöpfe. Oh, da geht's! Wirklich gut Schiff damage zu kommen.

01:22:15 Uh, now the vision is obscured. Oh, Pricey! Of course, it doesn't matter when you've got the Beast of the Hunt ready to go. Whiteflash, ooh, losing a lot of HP, though, and their cover has kind of disappeared with the zone pushing its way in. This Bowcheck, again, needs to do work, and so far, kinda is. Some shots starting to miss now, and really need to get this damage down. Whiteflash are really under the pump, pushing their way forward.

01:22:41 Ich glaube, es gibt Wonton Dumplingen, die sich für sie einen Moment geben, um sie zu leben. Darky und Pricey sind in der Mitte der Zone. Oh, und vor allem Chaos. Ich meine, Pricey ist derjenige, dass das Early Knock-On to Lightning Unicorn gewonnen hat, und sie hat sie in 2nd place, als ein Jouer Burger jetzt versucht, zu nehmen. Sie versuchen, Whiteflash 2v3 zu machen. After all sie haben so far in diesem Spiel gemacht, ich würde sie nicht überrascht, zu sehen, dass sie das auszunehmen.

01:23:07 Ja, man, ich würde gerne sehen, dass sie das Pressure haben. Ich bin nicht sicher, was die HP ist, oder Berger ist, aber look at wie low die Flasch sind. All die Mitglieder waren, die nur auf Shields waren. Wenn sie das Pressure haben würden, vielleicht Berger könnten...

01:23:21 Sie haben das Vorteil, aber sie haben nicht. Und sie haben eine Chance für den Reset, das jetzt ist ein 2-on-3. In reality, es geht in die andere Richtung. Es geht um die 1-1. Oh! 1 HP! Aber Team Berger wird das letzte Mal durch. Und es ist Team Berger, als ein Duo, der wird das Spiel wegnehmen.

01:23:41 Christy, you absolute madman. As a duo, there were five, six teams left. He gets the opening pick onto the other team in Godspot there, Laze, and then also clutches up to win a 2v3. Wow, I mean...

01:24:00 If that doesn't push them up and put them in contention for that land spot, I don't know what does, Lace. I know, some sort of switch flipped in their minds. At the start of the split, Genome, we saw that they found it a little bit difficult to climb up and then something happened and it was one of their final weeks where they needed to really do something. And they've just come out today and absolutely smashed it. Something has happened within the team to make them one of the top contending teams at the moment. But yeah,

01:24:29 Everyone on Team Burger at the moment are pulling their weight, and it was exceptional to see. That was an incredible finish by the lads. I mean, you know, we even saw that sort of earlier transition that they had to make, going through from Skyhook to the Tunnel. And yeah, just wow, smart rotations to play the north side there. You know, I kind of kept talking about how strong that position can be.

01:24:52 Even with the weird ring pull back to Survey, you can see why. Because you can just methodically work your way across the track. And then, yeah, even down into those power positions on the mountains on the south side there. Yeah, and it was just easy cleanup for them as well. You know, you saw like MDYY. They had such a short rotate from Fragment to Survey Camp. You know, you thought they might have solidified a little position there. But they were quite, I guess, low in...

01:25:19 Ja, ich meine, ihr liebt zu sehen Sharky auf Bang. Er hat ein paar Legends gespielt über die Jahre, aber wenn er war...

01:25:42 Ich glaube, es war Watson auf Dark-Zero, der wirklich zu ihm war, und ich glaube, er war eher kompigierbar. Also, ich denke, ein Charakter wie Bang wirklich suits ein Spieler von seinem Skill und Talent, als Team Berger kommt auf den Punkt mit 7 Kills, 5 von denen gehen in die Weise von Pricey. Aber wie Sie sehen, Sharky definitivend ist, mit der Damage zu sehen. Look, MDY White also 7 Kills, und ich denke, ich habe gesehen, Wonton Dumpling mit 10 Kills in das Spiel, so... Oof!

01:26:11 Das ist sicherlich zu helfen, um sie in 3rd Platz zu pushen. Ja, wir sind unsere Steamrollers zurück. Die Wanton-Dumplingen lieben, sie lieben zu collecten Kills und Souls. So es ist schön, dass sie sich in 3rd Platz zu pushen.

01:26:25 Placing in 5th, but, you know, a couple of kill points plus all their, you know, I guess great rotation from them. But yeah, big props to MDY White. They are sitting quite low on the leaderboard overall, so having them sort of be in that little third place was something nice for them. So hopefully they can keep it together in Storm Point because, you know, they've got a lot on the line. Yeah, look, I mean, Overlook Entertainment, they're sitting at 12th at the moment there. They are on the bubble, right? They are currently making regional finals in 20th place.

01:26:55 Maybe they just want a few more points than 12 to sort of lock them in there. It's going to be, I think it might be touch and go for Overlooked. Yeah, exactly right. You know, we've had some major changes to competition coming into Season 20, Gnome. How do you feel our teams have done so far with the EVO changes?

01:27:14 It's been really interesting to see some of those perks, even getting a look at some of those stats that we've had to show it's not even cut and dried yet between which perks you can choose. Here's just another example. We've got Caustic, obviously one of the most picked legends in this lobby, and you can see everyone.

01:27:36 Actually, going for Particle Diffuser, so no one really worrying about the Parabolic Force. Obviously, you know, if you're setting up the barrels, usually you're in a spot. You've got there already. I think the throw range doesn't do a lot, whereas obviously denying area or hurting people with Particle Diffuser, really good. Interesting to see 10% of people going for Breathe It In. I would imagine, I'm just taking a guess here, Lace, but I'm guessing that would be teams who maybe got their purple quite late.

01:28:04 Um, and at that point, uh, they, you know, they're like, hey, let's play for this endgame, and I'm gonna have to actually, like, sit inside my gas. I know there's gonna be people inside it that I can 1v1. But Residual Toxins, obviously, um, is running away with that. It's quite long. Like, like, you really do, it's, it's, I mean, if you think about Mad Maggie's passive, where she gets the vision on people after you hit them, Residual Toxins is kind of like that, but I think it might be even longer. So it's actually quite powerful in terms of, um, a sort of, like,

01:28:33 Soft wallhack type, you know, getting that knowledge of where the players are.

01:28:38 Ja, we saw a lot of teams using Caustic in earlier stages of competition. And then we saw a big break from Caustic, which has been kind of nice. Not one of my favourite picks coming up against one. But yeah, just to see Caustic sort of come back into Meta is exceptional, especially with the gas actually spreading and porturing a little bit more around the area. So it could be a perfect defence for our teams. But we're going to take ourselves a short little break. We will see you shortly.

01:29:07 Game Number 4.

01:31:56 Welcome back, everyone. We just came out of match number three, where our tastiest team, Team Burger, just took out the win there. You know, we've got teams from Singapore, Australia, Thailand, China, and more. And as we gear up for our next match, which is Storm Point, just been exceptional gameplay on World's Edge at the moment, Gino. It's been some fun stuff. I mean, yeah, look, 2v3 clutch there. Yeah, you can't ask.

01:32:23 Für mich besser als das, speziell mit einem Fan-Favorites, Team Burger. Ich meine, wer will nicht zu sehen Sharky zurück? Exactly, wir haben ihn aus der Retirement-Home, also wir haben ihn zurückgekehrt. Damn straight. Express-Ticket. First-Class, bitte. Whatever es braucht, um das Mann zurückgekehrt. Ich bin hier für's.

01:32:44 Exactly right. But we're gearing up for Stormpoint, which is our match number four. We will take a look at the beacon and we can see where our teams will be landing. A lot of teams are going to make some different rotates due to a lot of our EVO changes. Why don't you take us through, Gino? Yeah, so there's been wholesale changes over on Stormpoint. World's Edge is a little bit more cut and dried because Trials is really the only PvE spot you've got. Not the case here for...

01:33:11 Uh, Storm Point, right? Like, those PvE, um, sections, the spiders, the prowlers that you can kill, even the flyers over, you know, down towards, say, Down Basin North Pad, are now actually a big deal. Um, so if we have a look, uh, over there, you know, you've just got, um, places like, you know, the mill, you're starting off at prowlers, you've got, um,

01:33:33 You've also got teams down at Launchpad, who have several options with both Spiders and Prowlers. And you're going to see teams actually jostle Lace over which teams get those spots that are in between them, right? Like, I think I saw teams up the top.

01:33:51 Team Burger, um, talking about, you know, who gets the spiders down, um, south of them. Do they get them? Do Lightning Rod get them? The teams may actually, I don't think they're gonna fight over them necessarily, but, well, they fight off-server, right? They fight to decide who actually gets that, um, gets that spot. Yeah, exactly right, you know, and there's obviously the, uh, Evo Harvester collection points where they sort of spawn about 40 seconds after round one, so a lot of them may pop up near them, but, you know,

01:34:18 These teams that are sort of taking down the Prowlers or the Spiders, although you can do it, you know, Spiders are quite quick. You know, you can kind of pop them and chuck a grenade. It's all done and dusted. Prowlers can sometimes take a little bit longer. So is that...

01:34:31 Putting them in a bad position to be, you know, have a team sort of creep up on them. You do need to think about these sorts of things when sort of, you know, harvesting for these evo points. Yeah, no, 100%. And I think, yeah, it depends. Like even where you drop out of the ship now, that, you know, is also going to make a difference as well. Because as you say, if you've got teams who are rotating really quickly and you're sitting around waiting for the Prowlers to come out.

01:34:55 Ja, aber ich denke, Rotates hat sich auf die Bord gezwungen, also vielleicht sogar das ebenst alles aus. Aber es wird verschieden zwischen POIs. Ja, und in unseren Kontexten, ich will einfach ein bisschen auf den Kopf auf das. So, obviously, Teams sind nicht zu werden, um ein Purple Shield zu werden, per se, von Luck. Haben Sie gesehen, dass wir unsere Kontexten verändern? Weil wir, wir sehen, dass sie ein bisschen schneller sind, oder? Oder sind sie ein bisschen schneller? Oder sind sie ein bisschen schneller, wenn wir mit der Team landen?

01:35:23 Yeah, I think it definitely has had an impact because you are essentially, you just have whites. You know, it's really hard to sort of get blues early. Yeah, exactly right. But let's take a look. This is going to be our fourth match storm point. Let's go take it away.

01:35:46 Ja, ich bin jetzt auf das Thema, es scheint so zu mir, so far, die meisten dieser Protests haben, ich würde sagen, ein bisschen quicker, eigentlich, als was wir bisher haben. Ich weiß nicht, wir haben nur drei hier in Ipec South gesehen, also vielleicht ist das etwas, aber es ist etwas, aber es ist etwas, wie sie haben, ein bisschen quicker so far in diesem Jahr, aber hier wir gehen, auf zu unserer nächsten Spiel und wir sehen uns, wie wir es werden, wie wir gehen, wie wir gehen, wie wir gehen, wie wir gehen, wie wir gehen, wie wir gehen, wie wir gehen

01:36:16 Expecting maybe a little less Corsic here, but just having a cursory look at the compositions myself. Still seeing probably again 50% of the teams picking Corsic. Yeah, look, a couple of things I do want to note as we pull in here and you guys can, yeah, you can sort of get that sense of the legends. You know, I'm seeing a Newcastle pop up. That's definitely a new one. Is that, yeah, so look.

01:36:39 I think it was Serenity that we're sort of trying to claim both Echo and Coastal Camp. You can see here they have just let LU split that. And the same over at Barometer. You know, MXF and White Flash essentially just carving that one up in half. You can see the ring is heading towards Pylon. Once on Dumpling have scammed that, they're going to be pretty happy about that pull.

01:37:03 Um, und ja, so we, uh, we are headed down south here. I, actually, one more thing I should just mention, Elfish, is that the double ring console scan is in the game for just this week. I think it might be finished by next boy!

01:37:17 Ja, absolut. Wenn du über die Möglichkeit hast, wie es 200 Evo gibt, wie easy ist es um 200 Evo zu bekommen?

Strategische Überlegungen und Teampositionierung im frühen Spiel

01:37:46

01:37:46 Das heißt, wie easy ist es zu 200 dmg? Versus wie easy ist es zu 200 dmg? Versus wie easy ist es zu... Scan-The-Ring-Consult? Well... Ich weiß nicht mehr, da. So... Es ist ein bisschen... Es ist ein Free Evo, basically. Also, das heißt, dass... Es heißt, dass du eigentlich garanteet yourself... Blues, zu starten mit. Weil, wenn du nicht einen von einem, wenn du eine Perkbin hast und ein Evo-Harvester hast... Wenn du jemanden hast, wenn du jemanden hast, wenn du jemanden hast, das Blues hast.

01:38:16 Ja, ein bisschen an advantage, potentially. Early on in the piece, but... By the way... Not a huge concern at this point in time. Have we looked at Entertainment? Already on their way in, aren't they? They're, uh... Scout things out, got the Trident ready to go. A lot of room to work with at the moment, still. Everybody's happy. Doing some looting. So, nothing too crazy.

01:38:49 Das ist der Launchpad hier. Wir haben ein paar Teams in den da. Wir haben natürlich eine God Hand. Wir haben T4, um von Devastated Coast zu holen. Und dann Serenity, um, zu halten... ...ein der Outer Buildings hier in der Launchpad.

01:39:16 Ja, wirklich nur ein Back-and-Forth-Chip-Damage passiert. Ich habe einen Blick auf die Minimap selbst und ich bin wirklich nicht sehen, dass ich nichts mehr zu sehen. Es gibt keine wirklichen Engagements, die meisten Teams haben bereits rotatiert, ohne dass sie eine der Fahrt nach dem Norden sind. Und das ist eigentlich nur die einzige Aktion, das zu tun, um die Map zu machen. Das ist der Final Start. Oh mein Gott. Und sie werden sofort losst die Spieler auf die Map. TreeCleaner. Das ist jetzt schon mal, in fact.

01:39:46 Ja, das ist Dexler, mit dem Scout, mit dem Schaupp da. Das hat ihn mit ihm gemacht, ohne dass er eine Lick auf dem Schaupp hat. Und das ist Tom Yung-Kun. Das ist ein Team, das du nicht wollen, um zu gehen, um zu early zu gehen, aber da ist ein Assault Bin nebenbei, da ist ein Evo Harvester nebenbei. Und so all of a sudden, wir haben diese Objekte auf dem Map, das diese Teams müssen, um zu kämpfen, um zu kämpfen. Und es kann early Konflikts, wie das. Und so Tom Yung-Kun ist bereit für es.

Konflikte und Team-Dynamiken im mittleren Spiel

01:40:14

01:40:14 Ah, sie gewinnen die Objekte, und sie auch gewinnen die 3KP.

01:40:39 Es ist nicht die Worte der Worte, aber sie können die Zeit spielen. Sie sind ein langer Weg, wo die Zone ist. Und sie sind sicher, dass das auch. Aber sie werden nicht versuchen zu machen, um die Zonen zu machen. Auf der anderen Seite, die T4 haben sich in ein bisschen von Bother. Es gibt Corsic Gas überall, Magnalore Rockets landen auf dem ground. Und Lightning Unicorn ist auch so schwer als das. Jack-Cute...

01:41:05 Apparently being revived. Oh my god, do they actually get this off? Let's see, the Thermite goes in. Does it land? Well, at least stops them getting that bat off. And yeah, okay, there we go. The Arc Stars here, probably going to be the end. They just have to wait for these barrels to go down. But it is slowing them down, and there's other teams now having a look. MDY Black from on top of the hill have scouted this out. But no, they're actually going to take a different fight behind them. And it will just remain.

01:41:33 3v3 zwischen den beiden Teams. Bearclaw ist tatsächlich weg von Pylon's side. Und da geht's, L-U geht's down. T4 happy to take their loot. That got messy for a second there, but yeah Bearclaw ist nicht interessiert in leaving the safety of their compound. They aren't going to get into particular things. We've seen this kind of fight all too many times. It's Overlooked Entertainment up against MBY.

01:42:03 Often times the fights in this building tend to be a bit of a stalemate. Yeah, they do, don't they? It can take quite a while. Very hard to push. There's a lot of choke points, you know. Especially when you've got caustics involved, right? There's barrels behind every wall, every door that you're going to have to wait for. You're going to have to clear out. And then you've got the caustic ultimates, of course, ready to go. So Big Z holding his for the moment. And so is Jojo.

01:42:34 Okay. Augenstern. Having a little bit of a look.

01:42:45 Ich weiß nicht, dass das sein soll. Augenstern. Das würde ich... Das heißt, I-Stars. Okay! Ich weiß nicht. Ich weiß nicht. Ich weiß nicht. Ich weiß nicht. Vielleicht. Ich weiß nicht. Ich weiß nicht. Ich weiß nicht. Ich weiß nicht. Ich weiß nicht. Ich weiß nicht.

01:43:12 Surely you've got to push off the back of that. Surely they don't get them. Let them get this res off. The teams don't know it. This building is actually going to be very important in endgame. It is not pulling back. Well, it could pull back towards Pylon, but this particular building will be in for another two circles.

01:43:40 Oh, look who's having a little bit of a watch, though. On the other side of this engagement is Serenity. They're really fired off too many shots just yet, but they are going to make their presence known, with Beast of the Hunt being popped straight away there by Boogie. And Serenity definitely wanting to push their way forward. Someone's trying to scamper away. It was VC. We'll get picked up by Boogie on the back end there.

01:44:02 MDYY do come out, oh sorry, MDY, rather, do come out the better for that engagement. But now they've kind of got to deal with Serenity, so it's, uh, out of the flying pad, into the fire in a sense. Well, they've even popped the Caustic ulti on the inside there, as well as based to the hunt, so Serenity really trying to make this happen. The other two teams, as you said, kind of was playing to stall it out, but because MDYY weren't decisive, they didn't clean up that fight after they got the knock, I mean,

01:44:30 Sie wissen, jetzt sind sie an der Risiken von den beiden Teams zu beurteilen und nicht zu beurteilen, die Situation selbst zu beurteilen. Ich glaube, die Entertainment sind nicht auszuladen, aber sie haben noch ein paar Mitglieder, aber sie haben noch ein paar Mitglieder, aber sie haben noch ein paar Mitglieder, aber sie haben noch ein paar Mitglieder. Und das ist tatsächlich ein Potenzial-Rez. Sie sind schon für's. Sie sind schon für's.

01:45:00 All right, he's even got the gold mark.

01:45:04 Ja, wow, oh, no! Oh, he gets it off! He literally, oh, and the second he gets it off, yeah, they hear it, he dies. Okay, back inside the building, but now Serenity, yeah, they're taking some space off of MDY Black. Oh, they might be able to take a lot more than just that off of MDY Black. I think they're going to take the building away from them. It's just Ewan left alive in Serenity with a strong trio still.

01:45:32 ...matter of time, at least before they secure the building, if not even Wife and D.Y. Black. ...Docs going through. Oh, the smokes aren't quite enough to save, but maybe that third party was. Oh my god, beyond literally one. Literally one HP gets to make it off and may be able to rat this out, because I know it, like, this spot, it kind of feels like we're...

01:45:55 Out of the heart of the action. Because there's a lot of teams sitting over in Pylon. And also a couple up towards mid map as well. But the circle has continued to pull over here. So yeah. Shout out to the observers. They've correctly predicted the ring here. And this is the sort of area that these teams need to be fighting over. And I guess we will swap back to Pylon eventually. Because there's going to be quite a few teams having to leg it out from there. And over.

01:46:24 um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um,

Spannungen nehmen zu: Rotationen, Kämpfe und strategische Entscheidungen im späten Mittelspiel

01:46:44

01:46:44 WPG mit einem Chipp Damage hier und da. Mostly nur zu halten auf der kleinen Spot in der Zone. J.R. ist eigentlich über zu pulleufd ein Double Respawn. Er hat sich die Trident genommen. Und ja, er hat sich beide von diesen Leute zurückgebracht. Das ist, honestly... Whiteflasher looking, doch. Whiteflasher, ich denke, Whiteflasher interessiert. Ja, absolut. Proto.

01:47:13 Soyo und Rokoko auf der Reden sind bereits. Sie werden ihn gehalten, glaube ich. Sie sehen, wie die Arrows sind. Aber, die sind eigentlich getötet? Sie sind so schnell! Sie sind so schnell! Das war ein Trident Rotate. Das war ein Trident Rotate. Sie sind so schnell in. Das war ein Trident Rotate. Sie sind so schnell in Legends Gaming. Ja, Legends sind auf der Top, so es ist die Tri-Buildung. Sie spielen zwischen den Rocken, um North. Oh, Send.

01:47:42 Damn. KPG are trying to make their way through as well. Bonds on Dumpling up in Pylon. Don't have to do too much moving and shaking at the moment. Got that high ground so good opportunity with the charge rifle to do a bit of damage. Okay. There we go. This will be where the Newcastle comes into play though. You mentioned that earlier on. Tell you what, that's value. Damn.

01:48:12 Hitting shots with it. I mean, yeah, it's probably a gun you just take while you're sitting up the top, because obviously once you're dumping land pylon so they can control that high ground, you sit up there, and then when you're ready to rotate, probably has another gun somewhere, you know, ready to switch that out. Yep. Don't waste ammo. Yeah, you get some big hits like that. Charge the e-boat, so it's a good strat. 126 damage for pink gods against the purple, so it won't take too long if he keeps hitting shots like that, but either way, X and Y. Awesome.

01:48:42 YC, XD, and JR trying to take this fight to Legends. We talked about that rotation that was made. Looks like Legends do want to punish it, though. They themselves are at 100% fighting fitness, so I've had to slow down a little bit here. See if they can get that res. They traded with X and Y, though, so that may save them for now. See, you're getting some fences up there just to try and get that done in time. White flash.

01:49:10 They're just poking at them from across here with 20 seconds until the zone starts pushing in and legends gaming will have to make a pretty risky rotate most of them out 500 evo points off upgrading to purple

01:49:24 Um, so, you know, not super achievable via damage anytime soon unless they get into a real big battle here, Elfish. This is gonna be a super tough rotate here from Legends Gaming. They're going up. Uh, you can see that is their evac tower right now. Teams trying to focus on that. Will they get it off? I don't think so.

01:49:43 Yeah, they can't move. Well, we've got a list in ready to go with Legends, so let's see how things are going in their camp. Slight the caustic! Slight the caustic! I killed the blood. Same team. We're just walking left, guys. We're walking in left. Yeah. Walk in left. It's doing defeat. I told them to go here. I'll pack one. String left. Tomorrow, please. Okay.

01:50:17 All right, well, Whiteflash doing a bit of a number there as Legends Gaming goes down, X and Y also getting eliminated, and we are into the final seven teams remaining. It was... We got triple reds. It almost felt like there was hope there in Strafing Flame's voice. I was looking at the map, and I didn't really see it myself, but hey.

01:50:35 I mean, why wouldn't you have that belief in yourself after the kind of games they've had so far today, Elfish? Doesn't work out for them this time, but no doubt they're still going to be picking up a hefty amount of split points with their performance in this group's A and C today. So, Berger, as you said, triple reds. They're looking fantastic. They've got a nice little spot. The gatekeep, it obviously helps.

01:50:59 Und jetzt haben wir noch einen anderen Tag. Wir haben noch ein paar Teams hier auf der westen Seite. Und das wird T4, Bearclaw Gaming, MXF und Wanchon Kampfer. Ich weiß nicht, das Newcastle Shield ist wirklich zu spielen in diesem Spiel. Es ist eine schwierige Zone zu arbeiten, so MXF wird viel Geld aus dem Newcastle, aber es wird zu Ende in einem Moment sein.

01:51:26 Although it is actually Bearcorder on the receiving end of things this time around, it is though not really going to be too fateful for MXF either, as they're also dropped and right up on the high ground. Who is that? Someone flying through the air. Either way, Wonton Dumpling have landed in the engagement. This is just getting messy at this point. But Wonton Dumpling looks to have come off pretty good and cleared out this side of the zone. So T4 down now as well.

01:51:52 Und in den finalen vier. Wir haben eine Krabbe-Eva-Krabbe. Wir haben eine Krabbe-Eva-Krabbe jetzt. Okay, wir gehen. Ja, ich bin, sie haben nur noch gegründet. Oh mein Gott. Und wir haben eine Krabbe-Eva-Krabbe jetzt. Nun, wir haben eine Krabbe-Eva-Krabbe. Nun, wir haben eine Krabbe-Eva-Krabbe.

01:52:20 4 full spawner!

01:52:45 So, Virga sitting at full reds. We've got Serenity, one red, two purples. Wanton Dumpling, three purples. White Flash, one red, two purples. So, I don't think...

Showdown: Finale Kämpfe und die Krönung von Wanton Dumpling

01:52:59

01:52:59 Actually Serenity have done enough that they may be able to upgrade here. The rest of the purple is probably not going to get there for this fight. There's actually an Evo Harvester smack bang in the middle of this circle. But yeah, you have to be a madman to go for it at this point, I'd say. Oh, Sharky! De-stressin' that bat!

01:53:20 Ich denke, es wird nur in der Zeit kommen, und es wird genug genug zu geben. Whiteflash haben sich geholfen. Sie waren wirklich hinter der Palmtree geholfen. Ich weiß nicht, ob wir das sind. Aber das ist so wichtig für Berger jetzt. Es ist so riesig, weil die anderen Teams können Sie, sie können Sie, sie können Sie, sie können Sie, sie können Sie, sie können Sie, sie können Sie, sie können Sie, aber jetzt, die Team Berger haben, die Seite ausgesucht, sie sind, sie sind in eine prime spot, um sie zu nehmen.

01:53:46 Oh, Serenity is kind of headed in their direction. They've got a couple of Skynades getting tossed in there as well. So we need to be a little bit careful here, Team Berger. Under the pumps, the artillery barrage does start to land though. They are giving as good as they're getting. Second for the lobby overall at the moment, Team Berger have a chance to actually jump up into first, given that Legends Gaming have been not out. Kumo also nowhere to be seen, so...

01:54:11 Okay, so Wei running that full support on the Bloodhounds here, both the scan upgrades coming out from him, so he'll be just pumping that tactical, trying to get the information through to the rest of his team. Does look like Wonton Dumplings game to lose though, doesn't it? They are in pole position, they've got the high ground, they're doing the chip damage, and they've got both Berger and Serenity below them, kind of fighting one another, and essentially...

01:54:39 Mit Mutually Assured Destruction you'd say that Wanton Dumpling are going to walk away with what will be an easy kind of 1 on 3 or 2 on 3, something like that, to close this game out. Though, they want to pull the trigger here. See, it is their opportunity and Wanton Dumpling, they're making this one look easy. Though, the exchange came back for a moment but won't last long. Wanton Dumpling, in the end, did make it look easy.

01:55:01 Nice work from them, and yeah, look, another solid finish from Burger, but Wonton Dumpling walking away with it. Super solid stuff, and I was saying it might be Burger that could potentially take the first place for the overall standings, but maybe Wonton Dumpling, I know they were in third going into that endzone, so it'll be tight, we'll have to see.

01:55:26 ...on Stormpoint, in previous weeks we've seen them with high killpoints. They usually run edge and collect.

01:55:33 Souls along the way. They didn't seem to have as many in the top five squads. We'll have to check the leaderboard to see how many they just got right at the end there. But you know what, game number four. Our first match on Stormpoint. Elfish, I feel like we didn't see too many changes in Legends comps as we switch over to the larger map. We still got a fair few teams running. Bang, Caustic, Bloodhound. Slight changes with a new castle thrown out there. But still the top teams seem relatively the same.

01:56:02 Ja, ich verstehe. Es war nicht ganz anders. Ich glaube, dass Newcastle noch ein bisschen value hat. Ich würde nicht sehen, dass das eine. Die Shield ist zu helfen, aber es war nicht gut. Aber ich denke, wir sind noch ziemlich early in die Piece, als das Patch ist. Teams sind einfach, um, vielleicht nicht mehr zu ändern. Ich glaube, um... Ich weiß nicht, ob wir das Konversation hatten über die Asche hatten, da war...

01:56:28 I met her, maybe, what, a year, 12 months ago? A little bit longer than that, maybe two years ago. Where, you know, oftentimes you would really see the swap going from Stormpoint to World's Edge. But I don't really get that same sense quite as much at the moment. So I wonder if that'll be something that will come through as teams get a little bit more familiar with what their options are in this patch and what they like to play and what they don't like to play and how things are sort of developing. I think it's still quite early days, you know. We'll look back on this week in maybe, you know, two months and be like, well...

01:56:57 A lot has changed. How we were wrong, yeah. Yeah, exactly. Exactly, but you know, Wonton Dumpling here just cleaning up.

01:57:03 Everybody and the rest, you know, we're going to check out the scoreboard shortly and see exactly what they have just done. That's nine kills on the board for them. You know, usually we see Gugu there with top damage and again has, you know, pulled out 2,327 damage alone. Excellent stuff from once on. You know, they are sitting quite high in the overall leaderboard. I believe they're second just under Legends Gaming. So, you know, the first couple of matches there on...

01:57:31 World's Edge were not up to scratch. However, you know, they're still way out in front. Yeah, most definitely. Big game though from Wanton Dumpling Team Burger. See how that's going to shape things up on the overall standings. And it is Wanton Dumpling that are just going to leapfrog Legends Gaming. As we said, Team Burger did have that opportunity as well, but they weren't able to close the win out. And so they just...

01:57:55 Got pipped to the post a little bit, but it's still pretty tight toward the top end there. Even Akuma having a little bit of fun in that conversation. It's starting to develop a fairly hefty top three.

01:58:07 Ja, wir müssen sich anschauen, um Teams such as Lightning Unicorn zu spielen. Das ist die letzte Mal sie werden für Gruppe A spielen. Sie sind in den letzten 10en, 16en auf dem Leaderboarden. Wir müssen sicher, dass sie nicht overtaken sind von VK Gaming, die noch eine andere Runde zu spielen. Sie sind in etwa 22. Also, ein paar mehr Teams werden müssen in den Top 20 für Regional Finals.

01:58:35 Indeed, indeed. It's going to be a tight affair. We've got a couple of games still yet to go. Obviously Stormpoint saw a couple of contests. It's going to be still kind of a tight affair going into those next couple of games, but we'll have to wait and see. Exactly right. So that was just game number four. We're going to take ourselves a short little break and we will see you for game number five.

02:02:36 Surprise.

02:02:41 Welcome back, everyone. You're witnessing Apex South and all of its glory. Groups A vs C are in the firing line at the moment as we see our teams compete for the top spots going into the regional finals. Elfish, our Spicefield Steamrollers, Wanton Dumpling, taking out the win there in game number four, putting them in first place. Yeah, look, it's a bit of a tenuous position, though. There was a couple of teams that was Legends Gaming and Team Burger that were pretty close by.

02:03:10 Ja, und wir haben ein paar Veränderungen über Season 20. Aber Match 2 war eine große Herausforderung. Wir haben die Chops, das ist für sicher. Wir sehen uns wie es hier in Game Over 5 und 6 geht.

02:03:38 Legend picks have changed as well. You know, we still have Bangalore out in front. Bangalore's been quite a large pick for a lot of our teams to be able to provide that cover. But sneaking up behind that, we haven't seen too much of Elfish's Bloodhound. Yeah, yeah. I mean, look, we obviously haven't really had too much time to talk about all the Legend picks that are beyond the top three there. But, you know, you're kind of getting a little bit of variety in there, which is kind of nice to see. It feels like Bloodhound almost...

02:04:06 At the moment, I think if I was choosing a composition, I'd be picking Bloodhound as well. Just because of the... So many smokes, right? There's not only the Bangalore smokes, but there's also the Corsic smokes that you have, or Gas, I guess, that you have to look through. So I just feel like if you don't have a Bloodhound, if you're not running a Bloodhound, you are sort of shooting yourself in the foot. But we have seen teams having some success without it. But yeah, for me personally, it feels like...

02:04:28 Kind of a no brainer to be heading in that direction.

02:04:55 Team Wanton Dumpling, yes, they've overtaken Legends Gaming. They're quite close on the overall leaderboard. I think it's a 10-point difference there. So, you know, we might even see Wanton Dumpling if they can keep it together. You know, they are heavy hitters on Stormpoint to be able to take over Legends Gaming. This is the last time we're going to watch Legends Gaming compete because they are Group A and Wanton Dumpling get another chance. I believe being in Group C, so B versus C. So we could even see a major shift in our overall leaderboard.

02:05:23 Ja, definitiv. Ich meine, besonders wenn es, besonders wenn es, besonders wenn es, in die Weise wie sie sind. Wenn Wonson Dumplingen zu topen dieses Lobby wird, sie werden 25 Punkte. Legend werden vielleicht 21 Punkte. Also, das ist plus minus 4. Wonson Dumplingen würde, sie sind 10 behind, also sie sind 6 behind, mit dem Lobby zu spielen. Und ich denke, du kannst sie vielleicht backen, um sie 6 Punkte aus dem Lobby zu spielen, wie sie jetzt spielen.

02:05:50 I would probably say, yeah, at the end of today, actually, it is kind of looking like this team on your screen right now. Wonton Dumpling might be the team that will walk away with the first place overall for the season. Boogie Boarders Heroes, we're going to get to see for round number B versus C, and that could happen relatively quickly as well. Those two teams are pretty solid, so I guess it's anybody's guess, but obviously, you know, you can still sort of...

02:06:19 Ich glaube, ein bisschen eine konklusion zu machen, dass Wonton Dumpling in der besten Position der Moment ist, um dieses Spiel zu nehmen, welches wird, erst in den Finals gehen, das ist natürlich ein schönes Platz zu sein.

02:06:29 Yeah, you know, and it might be sort of the last time we might see, you know, even the likes of Bearclaw Gaming and teams like White Flash are actually, you know, performing decently well today. They are sitting, you know, a little bit lower on the leaderboard there. I think White Flash is about 25th at the moment, so they want to be very careful. You know, it might be the end of God hand there sitting in 17th on this and then overall 26th. So it's going to be a little bit sad to say, you know, goodbye to some of these teams.

02:06:59 Ja, ich denke, das Problem ist, dass du hier für Teams wie Whiteflash, die sich in den Top 20 zu kommen, und du schauen, dass das Scoreboard und sagen, oh, es wird gut sein. Sie haben 31 Punkte overall, sie sind in 9th place, sie bekommen ein paar Punkte, aber vielleicht können sie sich um, aber du hast auch zu nehmen, dass SWQ, Warwanser Firebird und NC, sie sind alle Teams, die nicht in dieser Lobby spielen.

02:07:23 Sie sind in 17, 18, 19 jetzt. Sie werden in der nächsten Lobby geteilt werden, egal in welchen Weg du sie paintest. So, du musst du gehen über und über und über hier sein, um, dass die Punkte noch nicht zu bekommen werden. Und natürlich, in der Fall von Whiteflash, sie werden nicht in der nächsten Lobby geteilt werden. Es wird ein schwerer Tag für sie, ich würde sagen. Aber, you know, vielleicht...

02:07:44 VKG, for example, they're going okay today. They could be in with the discussion. MDY Black as well, you talked about that a little bit earlier on as well. A few teams that are kind of keeping themselves in the conversation, but yeah, a couple that you could almost, if you're really being honest, kind of already strike the line through.

02:08:00 Yeah, so VK Gaming, I think, still have a great chance. You know, they're going to be in the next group as well, being in Group C. So they have been doing a little bit better. We haven't seen too much of them in the earlier weeks. So to have them sort of performing a little bit better today and then having, you know, that next lobby of six matches, it could be such a crucial turnaround for them also. Lightning Unicorn, again, you know, the last time that we're going to see them compete today as well.

02:08:29 wie VKG Gaming, die nächsten sechs matchen könnten sich über das. Es wird so eine sehr gute Spiel, und es wird sehr spannend zu sehen, die overall standings zu sehen.

02:08:41 Ja, ich meine, we're obviously, we're going to have to be going back and forth still over the course of today. And usually when we get into that second lobby, the final kind of like lobby of the regular split, we're like almost doing like mental arithmetic as we're going through like the last three or four games. And we're saying, okay, well, if this happens and this happens and this happens, then this team and this team will qualify. And if that happens, then this team will qualify. And you kind of get into that point where it's like, well, you know, you can talk about the theoretics. You can talk about the possibilities as much as you want. But at the end of the day, you kind of do just have to sort of watch, wait and see.

02:09:11 Ja. Ja. Ja, das kann passieren.

02:09:28 And one of our favourite things to have a look at is our, you know, our little Ratatars, throw your Pokeballs. It is the ratting stat that we have here. You know, some teams sort of drop in and maybe lose a couple of their team members and have to play their best rat game. So, you know, we've got Yokoi there with a nice little ratting time Elfish. Yeah, doing a pretty good job. And we talked about this in the last week, I think, as well, how important that can actually end up being. It can be...

02:09:56 The difference, potentially, between, you know, making, maybe, let's say, in this case, maybe making the top 20 and not making the top 20. Obviously not the case, necessarily, for Akuma, who are sitting pretty comfortably in 9th place overall, and they're probably going to get a lot of points out of this lobby, too, because I think they're worth sitting in 4th for this lobby, so they'll be quite solid, even though they're not playing the next lobby. But, yeah, for teams that are sort of sitting in those, like, tight positions that can really be decided by 1 or 2 points, then yeah, those extra...

02:10:25 Placement points that you gain can be a big difference maker, for sure. That's it. And these teams are, you know, excited to place and they're excited to go to land, but we are itching and rearing to go. Let's take it away for game number five. This is Storm Point.

Vorletztes Spiel: Strategische Picks, riskante Manöver und Team-Eliminierungen

02:10:42

02:10:42 Off we go, back to Stormpoint, and we'll get to see how things are going to shape up for the penultimate game of this Lobby. Still got two more to go, including this one for Groups A and C, and then A is done. So this is about as good as it's going to get if you're Legends Gaming, for example, Serenity, Urga, Akuma. All these big names have to get as many points as possible before going into the finals next weekend.

02:11:11 Ja, so obviously it's not set after this weekend at Elfish, you know. Look, Berger can have a good finish here. I don't know if they'd be, I don't think they'd be locked in for top eight after that. They would also most likely have to perform quite well in the regional finals to make sure they get that ticket overseas. But considering where they were at the start of the season, it has been a nice upward trajectory for them. A pleasant one.

02:11:42 Ich denke, das ist was ihr wollt, richtig? Ihr wollt, dass die richtige Zeit auf den richtigen Moment nicht alles, was ihr habt in den ersten paar Wochen und dann kommt in den letzten Woche und dann kommt in den letzten Woche und dann kommt in den 5th oder so und dann einfach auf die Radar und dann kommt nicht weiter. Das wäre nicht ideal, überhaupt. Ich werde immer noch immer wieder in der finalen Lobby getrennt, aber noch ein bisschen change-up, als die Zone-Pools zu sein. Wir werden noch weiter nach dem Norden gehen.

02:12:08 Looks like MXF, gonna stick with the Newcastle as well. They felt like they got enough value out of it in the last game to keep what I would say is a pretty unorthodox pick in the mix. And the only other one to really sort of point out here is that, uh, Palace coming through for Whiteflash is also, uh, yeah, again, a bit of an unorthodox pick in this lobby that no one else is kind of going for.

02:12:31 Ja, und ich glaube, eine der größten Differenz hier ist, ist, ist es nicht ein Einzelhorizon pick? Ich habe einen Blick auf. Ich glaube, es ist ein Einzelhorizon pick. Ich glaube, es ist ein Einzelhorizon pick. Ich glaube, es ist ein Einzelhorizon pick. Ich glaube, es ist ein Einzelhorizon pick. Ich glaube, es ist ein Einzelhorizon pick. Ich glaube, es ist ein Einzelhorizon pick. Ich glaube, es ist ein Einzelhorizon pick. Ich glaube, es ist ein Einzelhorizon pick. Ich glaube, es ist ein Einzelhorizon pick. Das ist ein Einzelhorizon pick.

02:13:00 Um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um,

02:13:30 So, it'll help with your evo. Got a bit of extra loot on the back end there as well. So Player K from Legends is gonna have to do this one as a solo mission for now. It is still pretty early on in the piece, so you might be able to retrieve those banners and get a revive. There's a lot of space to work with. The issue is that that is gonna be a rotation point for a lot of teams. So I'm not sure that he's gonna actually have an easy time of recovering those banners. No. They've got the conduit though, right? So, you know.

02:13:59 Probably more likely to just, uh, you know, go to the wall, craft over there, and there's, uh, very conveniently a crafter right next to the respawn beacons, so. Um, and actually no one around there at the moment. KPG are coming through. If he does it quickly enough, uh, as they kind of do the spiders over there, um, I think he'll actually time this pretty well and then potentially get back into the ring, so.

02:14:21 Ich weiß nicht, man, Legends Gaming sind die Katzen von Apex South jetzt. Denn in jedem Spiel gibt es 9 lives, richtig? Sie werden immer wieder aufhören.

02:14:31 Yep, und ich werde einen Augenblick auf das und werde euch wissen, aber es scheint zu sein, dass sie das zu sein werden. Die Banners sind geblieben und die Beacons sind jetzt zu sein. Ich denke, die Dinnerbell ist zu sein, aber ja, wie du gesagt, KPGs sind quasi weit entfernt von dem Respawn, also es scheint nicht so zu sein, dass es nicht so viel zu sein für Legends ist. Ja, es ist ziemlich impressionant, wie sie immer zu gewinnen sind, aber... Either way...

02:14:58 Taking a look at where, potentially, this zone is going to end up. You've got the ring touching on the northern side, so it should continue to pull in this direction. Toward the trenches. It's always a fun final zone, I find, those trenches. I mean, it's good to have Bangalore, obviously, in these kind of situations, which, as we've said, is pretty universal across the board in this lobby. But, yeah, you know, if you lose your Bang player, they go down for some reason. Like, how likely are you to get a reset? Not very likely.

02:15:38 X and Y are certainly taking their time about things, having a scout toward the mill. Waiting to see Serenity exit before they push their way forward. It's kind of the leapfrog type gameplay that you do tend to see a little bit in Apex Legends, in Battle Royales in general.

02:15:59 One team moving away from a point of interest and then the next team occupies it. And then they move away and the team behind them takes it. So on and so forth.

02:16:22 Okay, so we're sitting in the middle here, trying to pick up some extra loot. Gonna get a little bit closer with an Evo Harvester and a couple of these bins. Thankfully for them. No one else around to pick up the support bin and the assault bin.

02:16:42 They have access to up the top here KPG actually still in the zone behind them by the way They also have a trident I don't know if they really want to use that to boost in here, but as you can see legends I mean they've got the info that the it's gonna be pulling further towards the trenches as we've said, but for the moment They don't really want to get in anyone else's way because they obviously are going to be struggling a little bit for loot

02:17:16 actually a potential checkpoint zone here elfish its not something that you see every day

02:17:26 I like the checkpoint zones though, I gotta be honest with you. I like the verticality that comes with it. It's a very difficult zone to play, particularly if you end up on the low ground. So for teams that are still kind of making their way in and maybe have that information, they're going to want to get in there pretty quick. VK Gaming have the right idea. They want to take control of the height.

02:17:49 Might be easier said than done though. Kassel will be working his way up and that'll be an easy one actually so maybe it was easier done than said.

02:17:59 Yeah, Whiteflash, very much on the run now. Other teams starting to sniff around, Wanton Dumpling, taking the zip up towards the coffin building there, as you can see, and then Serenity also down towards the sort of the middle ground, I guess you'd call it, down where the bins are. And also moving up to try and take one of those buildings. So definitely a couple of teams are actually thinking, hey, I know these are rare. Most of Checkpoint is, you know, not eligible to be a final zone.

02:18:27 Aber sie sind willig zu spielen von dort. Es könnte, es könnte noch nach der Mountain. Ich würde sagen, die nächste Zone wird sicher sein, ob das passiert. Aber es ist eine interessante Möglichkeit. Ja, es ist ein bisschen 50-50. Ich würde sogar sagen, dass mehr von Checkpoint ist in die nächste Zone, als nicht. Ja. Das ist nicht immer so, dass die Direktion der Zone ist.

02:18:55 This could get messy pretty quickly for Full Engage, who unfortunately are just a duo, and I don't know if they're gonna last very long off the back of that. That's Johnny Dying out of the picture, and Full Engage very quickly taken out of the game by Overlook Entertainment. Just not really the place to land when you're a duo, unfortunately. X and Y is flipping around though as well. They get the scan on them after they come through, and although Overlook Entertainment didn't take any losses in that fight, they have been caught off guard.

02:19:23 X and Y though, I wonder if they're bitten off more than they can chew. This is starting to get a bit of a messy area of the map. You've got MXF firing some cross shots across as well. So X and Y, I'm gonna have to back up and actually X and Y take the bigger loss because their teammate JR was actually finished off whereas Overlook Entertainment actually being able to find the revive and they're still healthy with three. How did that happen? That turned around so quickly. Overlooks were inside of the bunk carpet.

02:19:52 Naeber der Team, die nicht in 3rd Partie war. Ex-Mai wurde in 3rd Partie getötet. Ich habe noch mehr zu worry about. Ich denke, es ist die Long-Range Sentientel Shots und was auch noch kommen in, von... ...Further in-towards die Trenches.

02:20:13 Tim's further down like T4. There's two of them. They're just gonna double send it towards the single remaining God Hand member. But beautiful tracking there from ironically tracking bad actually means he turns this into a 1v1 trying to make it happen with the nades there. But oh, the arc star slow. Oh, I mean, that's so sad. I like tracking.

02:20:39 Unbeliebably good on the first person, but then you can't do much like once it slows down your mouse It's just so hard to get those bullets on track and that means the t4 Walk away with and get the res in time Insta res for t4 happy with that and Well, there's a good way to farm some evo Am I crazy or are we seeing reds way earlier now than what we used to

Checkpoint-Chaos: Kämpfe um die Vorherrschaft und strategische Zonenrotationen

02:21:06

02:21:06 I mean, apart from teams that would fully farm reds from, like, multiple evocrafts... Even then, it feels like it's come through earlier. I guess maybe not, but like... I just feel like we're seeing reds earlier more often. Yeah, I mean, I guess the difference is it's only on one team member, because to get there early, you obviously need to hit an evocation. Those only come...

02:21:31 in single denominations. Whereas before, if you saw teamings on red, like, you know, say X and Y, they would often do that. Yeah, it's a full team coming at you with 125 shields. It's a little quirk, I guess. I wonder if we've got any info on where that next ring is gonna go now that it has pulled in. It's a bamboozle. It's a bamboozle. I still haven't got it yet. We'll see.

02:22:03 Ja, ist weg nach dem Checkpoint. Oh, okay. Ja, ich sehe. Ja, so... Wir sprechen über das in einen Moment, wenn wir das auf dem Stream gehen, aber...

02:22:11 Das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja, das ist ja.

02:22:40 Das ist es, du hast zu gewinnen die Checkpoint-Fight, das ist vielleicht einfacher zu sagen. Oh mein Gott, da ist ein Ring-Console. 5 oder 6. Ja, 5 oder 6, Team. So, wenn du das nächste... Ja, du kannst du den Ring-Console sehen. Es ist einfach, inzwischen, wo Monton Dumpling und Serenity's Namen sind. So, wenn du das gewinnen, du bekst, du bekst eine der besten Spots. Du bekst auch Ring-Console, und dann die Abilität zu evakten über in den Godspot.

02:23:08 Für die nächste Zone? Das ist echt nuts! Ich denke, es ist besser gesagt als done. Wie viele Teams sind in der Zeit gegen Checkpoint. Das ist wirklich ein absoluter Bloodbath über die nächsten 5 Minuten. Ich meine, nicht nur die Teams sind schon schon auf Checkpoint, aber du hast vier Teams, die sich in den Souten rotatieren. Ja. One oder zwei von dem East, also. Depending auf, wo Zicke und Dexter sind, sie wollen.

02:23:34 Oh mein Gott! ...Legend's already getting into it. Team Burger's out. Wanton doubling also going boom. And we'll take a look back to the northern side again. Over those trenches where... ...everyone's just bunkering down for the moment. Whew. Well. Those Wantons certainly got steamed... ...pretty quickly there by the Nades. Cooked them up.

02:24:01 Serenity ist jetzt auf dem Weg. Und dann haben wir noch andere Teams für Trench... ...Supremacy hier. Tomyung-Koong... ...Win das eine. Wir schauen schnell, um zu sehen, was die Situation ist. Akuma, auf Flues, decides nicht zu pushen. So... ...Luckily für sie, Tomyung-Koong wird die Reset. Und dann... ...Agen, das Fight ist sehr wichtig. Serenity! Sie eigentlich lose Jesko!

02:24:30 So they're gonna go... Yeah, they're just gonna go hide down in the middle somewhere here. And now Legends, that have beaten off everyone in the buildings around them, can start looking at those other teams that were sort of sitting down the bottom. You were talking about a lot of teams rotating through Checkpoint from the south. So you've got a duo of Whiteflash down there. You've also got to keep going gaming. Oh, Chuckie, yeah. Whiteflash are about to get caught. Oh my god. Wow, those Thermites didn't quite hit. The EMP does, though.

02:24:59 Arxar also hit, so Whiteflash is not in a very good spot there at all, but MDYY is going to come in and start causing a ruckus on the northern side of Checkpoint as well, and it's going to be T4 that are going to be eliminated. Double res. There's going to be a quick res here from Mingyu, because there's a few teams around in Checkpoint, but no one paying attention to MDYY. They've got bigger fish to fry, so that's actually a stroke of luck for MDYY. Serenity got back up as well.

02:25:25 Ich weiß nicht, ob vielleicht ein Team-Members hat, und das ist wie sie die Rez gemacht haben. Aber ja, Legends Gaming, wir haben das schon seit ein paar Jahren gesehen. Teams sind einfach nicht zufrieden, um das 1-KP zu gehen, um das 1-KP zu gehen. So ja, Legends Gaming ist noch ein paar Teams, vielleicht vier oder fünf Teams, zu gehen für das amazing Position, wir haben hier in Checkmack. Du hast ja auch die Long-Game, nicht du?

Spannungsgeladene Kämpfe und strategische Spielzüge in APAC South

02:25:55

02:25:55 We got a lot of U2 getting tossed over there, but the real connection is just yet. From KPG, who have the zone at their backstand, and that zone is moving pretty quick, so they're going to have to run on in. Players to the left, going to be the focus of fire, it's Whiteflash out early. KPG, out of the firing pad, into the fire. You got Legends above, who are able to rain fire down upon them. I'm not sure that there's going to be too much land can do about this.

02:26:21 Hey Legends, they need to look for the angles here. They have such a good spot being up top right now. They start dropping to get those finishes. Don't want to drop anyone in the meantime. Easy Flash goes low, but they do have the Conduit Heels here. The Radiant Transfer does come out. Okay, that's one team down. Now you've got MDY White. They're full sending on to Serenity.

02:26:44 Die Leute, die zu leben, in der Smokestone sind, haben tatsächlich viel von den Trenches gemacht. Und das lässt MDYYT zu nehmen. Aber... Angles, wieder von Legends Gaming, sind gerade auf den Topf. Das ist so hart für Teams zu leben. Ich denke Legends Gaming ist zu leben. Ich würde sagen, sie müssen sie auch. Sie wissen das. Sie wissen das. Sie wissen das. Sie wissen das. Sie wissen das. Sie wissen das. Sie wissen das. Sie wissen das. Sie müssen die Vorteile. Und sie werden das, um das, um das, um das, um das, um das MDYYT.

02:27:11 Es geht um mich ein bisschen, aber MDYY nicht zu finden, das ist die wichtigste Sache. Lin Yu will be finished off by Player K. Und es ist nur eine Mitglieder der MDYY, die Legends sind wohl aware, und wie gesagt, sie sind auch immer wieder weg. Fascinating, sie haben nicht den Ring-Console scannt, vielleicht nicht genug Zeit?

02:27:40 Ich meine, es würde ihnen nicht helfen, richtig? Es ist nur das kleine Schlott der Ring. Ja, es war das Spiel, das Spiel wir haben. Rippen die E-Vac und die E-Vac direkt in und es warst wie ein Charm. Ich kann sie sehen, wie das Alternative Pylon war für sie, denn als sie landen, tonne Nades getroffen sind in der Richtung, aber Alternative Pylon ist es safe.

02:28:04 Und zurück zu full health hier, Legends. Und tatsächlich, sie haben sich tatsächlich geholfen von Overlook, aber Overlook kann nicht wirklich mit dem Kampf, denn die 3rd-party Cross Shots sind zu kommen. So Legends haben sich ein bisschen auf einem Platz für den Moment geholfen. Behind das Binnen, auf jeden Fall, haben sie etwas von den Trennchen. No-one kann wirklich pushen über den Topf.

02:28:29 Oh, the Arc Stars, look at that, he's got so much space in the inventory. Please, feed me more. Chuck a bang ult, see what happens. I'm sure some of them will be at some point. See the fact they're doing it tough at the moment.

02:28:49 Oh mein Gott! Zap zap zap!

02:29:09 Ich bin aber auch wirklich aus dem Spot, aber auch Akuma. Und dann wird sie dann getrennt. Tom Yum-Kung ist auf der anderen Seite, auf der Bunker. So, dann zu vier weitere Teams. Es ist Legends, Tom Yum-Kung, Overlooked. Und Final Start. Ich weiß nicht, wie viel wir gesagt haben heute, aber das könnte eine große Spiel von ihnen sein. Wir haben gesehen Tree Cleaner ein paar Mal, nicht in den besten circumstances, aber...

02:29:37 Ich glaube, sie sind sehr gefährlich, hinter dieser kleinen kleinen wall. Und das ist auch nicht so weit zu sein. Und es ist nicht so weit zu sein. So sie versuchen, die nächste Kava zu finden. Aber ja, sie werden wirklich nicht so weit weggehen. Ich glaube, Final Start und Legends haben einfach nur einen Arktars zu tun. Und sie sind auch Arktars für einen anderen. Weil sie sind beide Wonsen-Teams. Ich habe einfach nur einen Wonsen-Teams.

02:30:04 Es ist wie ein Tennis-Match, dann ist es eine Art Start, dann geht es wieder zurück. Und dann ist es, oh, jetzt ist es dein Turn!

02:30:29 Looks like the Radiantransfers were a little bit too late there for Legends Gaming, so the Conduit unfortunately not able to get that healing back up in time for the team. Now they go in, Tom Young-Kung! Yeah, I think it might be Tom Young-Kung, though it is Dexter and Zeke. Dexter's already lost all his HP, it won't matter. Tom Young-Kung, the champions for the fifth game of the A&C Lobby. And they do it with ease.

02:31:00 Very nice finish there from the Thai lads. 11 kills as well. So bang, Bloodhound Caustic wins it again. Yeah, Tom Young-Kung, you know, we haven't really seen too much of them today. They've been sort of getting knocked out, you know, in under the top 10 positions. So nice to see them sort of solidify a win. I believe they're sitting about 9th on the overall standings genome. So it's nice to see...

02:31:28 You know, that fantastic team do something there. You know, another team that we've been sort of having a look at. Final Start, like Elfish said, we haven't really said their name too much. They're sitting quite low on the leaderboard, so unfortunately, you know, that play there may not be enough to sort of push them into some of the top spots as well. But again, great game from Final Start.

02:31:51 Yeah, not too bad from them either. I mean, five kills they picked up. Legends Gaming have just been so consistent today. It's been a real treat to watch them playing the Watson Conduit Bang Comp. Again, you know, Strafing Flame always cooking something up. There's always a... Doesn't like to see... It doesn't seem to like going with the meta all that often, Lace, but always seems to make it work. And yeah, another nine kills in a fourth placement for them. That's another pretty impressive result.

02:32:19 Ja, und Legends Gaming ist absolut clean. Sie können sich selbst wiederholfen, die sich selbst wiederholfen. Wir sahen und gesehen haben sie vor, haben eine 22-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill-Kill

02:32:40 Yeah, exactly. And for a team who's so good at closing out games and finding their way into the final circles, like, yeah, I mean, the evac rotation here, we saw it a mile away, but it was still an impressive play. And obviously it was that, you know, management of the checkpoint situation.

02:32:56 um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um,

02:33:15 Yeah, and you know, it's awesome to see some of these teams, you know, that have, you know, sitting quite low on the leaderboard sort of make their way up the top there. You know, unfortunately, we see like Lightning Unicorn, for example, they're in 12th position, you know, they're not too high in the overall standing, sitting about 16th. This is their last time I think they play because they're Group A at the moment, Genome. So, you know, they might need to do something a little bit more crazier to put themselves in those top positions. But again, Legend Gaming's out in front, overtaking Wonson that were just sitting in front previously.

02:33:45 So, they're kind of just going toe-to-toe at the moment. Oh, my God. So, we've seen Tom Young-Kun go up by eight places after that game into fifth spot. So, that was a huge game for them and their chances going forward here. Of course, yeah, you know, with the org going by the wayside, these guys, you know, want to be making it to LAN and sort of getting all the support and, you know, extra cash that's on.

02:34:13 Ja, was an exceptional game for them to push them up to that position. You know, we still get one more match there left for them, so if they can do it again, they might even see themselves...

02:34:31 We'll see you shortly.

02:38:33 Drops shocked and rocked. Say hello to the 401st.

Regional Finals rücken näher: Teams kämpfen um Preisgelder und LAN-Qualifikation

02:39:05

02:39:05 Welcome back. You've just been witnessing Groups A versus each battle it out in our final week of the Group Stages. You know, we're one week from the Regional Finals. You know, the games we're seeing today are make or break for a lot of our pros. But, you know, not only that, there's a prize pool in the back of their minds as well. You know, $125,000 for, you know, spread across these teams. So not only do they want to get themselves a spot, you know, at Regional Finals, they want to get themselves some dollary do's.

02:39:34 Absolut, ja, das ist ja, es geht um, das Ende des Jahres zu kommen, Lace, wo Teams wird sich um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um.

02:39:57 I see, you know, 125,000 USD is more for Australians as well. So, you know, we have a lot of teams from Australia. We have a lot of teams, you know, China and Malaysia, Thailand make up our Apex South region. So, you know, all these teams are excited to see victory, regional finals and the prize. But we are going to, you know, shortly head into our last match on Storm Point for our groups today. But, you know, we've been touching on a lot of things. Season 20.

02:40:24 Genome, we've had a fair few changes in and amongst that. We've been chatting about the EVO shields, the way that teams can sort of get these EVO points as well, which is a massive change for competition. It's a huge change, Lace. It's meant that we, I think, yeah, across the board I would say we're seeing lower levels of shields, right? It almost felt like purple was kind of guaranteed.

02:40:52 Um, past maybe sort of Zone 3 in previous times. Uh, whereas now you're seeing blues late into the game. If a team hasn't been able to get purple, but they have a really good spot and they just want to sit there and sort of not poke. Uh, it actually takes quite some time to get those purples online. So, uh, and as you were mentioning beforehand, it also means, uh, you know, contests have changed. Early game fights, uh, are sometimes happening on just white. And that means, you know, you can get one clipped.

02:41:21 Ah, you know, it's not just the rollers. Not just the rollers pulling out the one clips anymore, guys.

02:41:25 Das ist genau richtig. Wir können sehen, dass einige Teams vielleicht mehr von einem voll senden approach haben, weil sie noch die gleichen Armors haben. Aber ich habe gehört, dass ein paar Teams nicht tatsächlich nehmen, und sie wollen ihre Evo-Shields upgrade. Sie wollen nicht nur die Evo-Shields nehmen. Es ist nur 50 health. Es ist nicht viel. Du kannst du absolut obliteratet durch ein paar Bursts of a Prowler. So, du musst dich sehr vorsichtig nehmen.

02:41:54 We're going to have a quick look over here. We're going to see a couple of our EVO upgrades. You know, we've been chatting about some of our, you know, meta picks where they've got different changes, but we're going to have a look at Conduit, which, you know, Gina, we've seen a couple more people pick up Conduit on Stormpoint.

02:42:10 Indeed. So here's the stats for that. Shout out there to Esports Engine and EA who have been working on us to create these graphics. It's been awesome to get these stats online. You can see with Conduit, very obvious choice for Level 2, right? Battery Collection, it's nothing more than a nicety. You know, the pros, they can go to a death box. They can check for the batteries. They don't need to see it on the box. So for Bigger Jam, that makes 100% sense that you would be picking that 100% of the time.

02:42:39 And then in the level 3 perk selection, that's where it starts to get a little more interesting. I mean, I played a bit of Conduit here in Season 20 Lace. I really like that split charge. And the reason for that is if you're timing it well...

02:42:57 You can essentially, you know, you can get up to, what is that, like 250 extra shields for your team if you're pumping that out at the same time in quick succession in a fight. Radiant Transfer? It's interesting that they go for that with the increased tac range because I personally would have thought, you know, taking these fights on a pro level, you're staying quite close-knit.

02:43:19 So why do you need that extra range on the Radiant Transfer? I'm going to have to watch some of these VODs back and try and work out why the pros are picking that 40% of the time.

02:43:29 Yeah, exactly right. That's probably more for, you know, us rankers that play solo and, you know, you've got your teammate running into Narnia and you've got to cover them for some shields or they'll start yelling at you through the microphone. But, you know, we absolutely love that. But yeah, pros should be saying sort of tight knit. But yeah, it's interesting to see the conduit has sort of been picked a little bit less since the changes. And then having a look at that skill tree, I do feel like that the, you know, the higher picks with the 60%, you know, the full charge on the other side, you know.

02:43:58 Du denkst, dass sie ein bisschen mehr sehen. Aber wir sehen noch eine Bangalore, Achaustik, Bloodhound kommen, das ist so gut. Und du fühlst mich, dass die Team noch immer wieder solidify. Me and Elfish haben schon erwähnt, dass sie eine Bloodhound haben, dadurch, dass alle Bange und Achaustik sind, und zu sehen, dass all diese Levels der Smoke.

02:44:20 Yeah, you kind of need to do it, right? The scan is just incredibly helpful here. And it almost feels like it's been quite a while now that we've... There's pretty much always been some kind of scan character in the meta. Obviously, Seer was there for the longest time in year three of ALGS. And now that he's been, you know, basically nerfed into the ground, we are seeing teams pick up Bloodhound quite a bit more. But even, you know, we were...

02:44:46 Um, you know, sort of picking up on that Nox vision before, being one of, uh, Caustic's, uh, most picked perks as well. So, even there we're starting to see some of, uh, uh, yeah, just that, that any ability that gives you, um, the permanent outline, not permanent, but, you know, outlines on, uh, enemy players, very, very important and well picked. Yegs.

02:45:10 Exactly right. So, you know, the legend picks, you know, are always a good staple. But let's go have a look at some of our heavy hitters here. Again, you know, we've always seen Easy Flash on the board. We always talk about it. But, you know, very, very close behind Gugu. Gugu does an amazing job at obliterating a lot of the competition genome. And you can definitely see why, you know, wonton dumpling, I call them the heavy hitters, the steamrollers. And Gugu is a big part of that.

02:45:37 Yeah, no doubt about that. And, uh, yeah, obviously he's been picking a lot of Horizon. I don't think we've been seeing him as much on Horizon today. I feel like, uh, I, you know, when we were talking about that before, no Horizon, at least, uh, in Storm Point. Um, so, considering a lot of people said that, you know, uh, characters like that were a crutch for some of these controller players, Lace, um, it's good to see him

02:46:01 Um, still out here and still doing well, uh, being a little bit more flexible, because I think once you get to the tippity top of Apex, you can't be a one-trick.

02:46:10 Yeah, exactly right. You know, you've got to change with the meta. And we have been seeing that from quite a few of our teams. And yeah, it's been actually crazy not to see a lot of Horizons. You find that if you go into like the rank setting, you will find Horizon is still a top pick. But it's, you know, our professional teams are showing us that you could choose these other ones and get it organized. So it's really good to see some different changes. You know, I wasn't very happy about Kostik coming back, but that's totally fine. We're going to see some more. This is going to be our match number six, our final game on Storm.

02:46:40 Let's take it away.

Letztes Spiel auf Storm Point: Strategien und unerwartete Wendungen

02:46:46

02:46:46 Final game indeed, at least for this lobby. And you guys don't need to worry about it because we've got plenty more coming for you. After this lobby as well, we'll have the B and C lobby. So another six games of ALGS right after this one. Well, we'll have a little bit of a dinner break, but it won't be too long. So you've still got plenty of games to watch this evening if you're keen to stick around. But at least for now, we'll focus on what's happening for A and C and for the final game on Storm Point for this lobby.

02:47:15 How things are going to shape up. Those contests haven't really panned out on this map at all in the first couple of games. And I'd imagine that that'll be changing up too much here for the third on the trot. Nope. Sticking to their sides by the looks of it. I mean, sometimes you do see it change up in game six, just because teams are like, well, if we do it in game four, they'll expect it in game five and six.

02:47:37 And that way, sometimes you can just sort of mess with them in that last game. But yeah, I wouldn't say necessarily. That said, Ring does look like it could be pulling to Devastated Coast. So it could be a fun one. You know, even the building, the high building on the zipline, you can see that's in currently.

02:47:58 Obviously, we've seen circles. This one doesn't seem quite as deep, but if that stays in for quite some time, we've obviously seen that that's an incredibly powerful position, especially if you can chuck a Watson or a Caustic up there as well. So, I mean, you know, what else is there to talk about? I mean, look, we don't have any early contests. I think...

02:48:21 It's interesting to see how a lot of these teams are now playing with PvE. I mean, look at God Hand over there at Launchpad right now. You can see how split they are. Drakoi is off doing the Prowlers. We've got Tracking Bad off doing the Spiders.

02:48:36 Und dann Yessh ist derjenige, die einfach ein paar Loot auf der Launchpad selbst. Nebenwirkungen, du hast andere Teams, die zu den Tridenten bekommen. Sie werden einfach nur ein Solo-Driver rausgebracht, um, zu beherrschst, um, die Evo-Harvesten sind, um, in der Seat, oftmals. So, like, you know, da ist ein, um, weiter, um, zu der East von Launchpad, um, jetzt. Ich bin nicht sicher, ob sie haben, oder sie werden es. Aber ja, like, you know.

02:49:04 Um, certainly teams like them and Northpad will be looking for those options for early upgrades for Evos. Ooh, we're getting a nice little rat play up here by KPG. Oh, that was a 3-2-1. I don't think they actually got the knock though, did they? He survived on 1 HP, so they're going to have to continue that push. And now without the element of surprise, things get a little more difficult. The horizon, the elevator is in effect. But where is the parade?

02:49:31 Ja, he actually got out. He's managed to get up and out through the building, got a bat off, still needs the medkit to come out, because as you said, he really was 1 HP when they hit that. So I like the thought from KPG, but it doesn't quite match up to the execution. And again, that's kind of what I was talking about, right? Like, that's a game 6 play.

02:49:55 Hmm, hmm. Ich meine, das war so close, du. Du hast alles richtig gemacht, wirklich. 3, 2, 1 war perfekt. Jeder war hittin' ihre Shots. Es war einfach nur ein bisschen von Chip Damage. Und das könnte, wenn nicht nur ein Kill Point sein, vielleicht sogar ein Squad Wipe oder ein paar Points auf dem Board. Either way, das ist nicht der Fall. Wir sind jetzt in Game 6 gegründet.

02:50:17 Rough start for them, rough end for them, I suppose, it has to be said, because that'll be the end of this lobby at least. But Team Burger, I want to ensure that they have a good game here, because they're sitting in third overall for this lobby. Very much still some big points on offer if they can have a good finish, have a good final game here, jump up to second or into first. Obviously, you know, you get yourself more season points overall, and with that, more money, more chances of qualifying to go overseas as well. Every game matters at this stage of the season.

02:50:44 Ja, kind of miss what happened there. Oh, so they run into Bearclaw Gaming. Could have been a Rat Play, actually, because Bearclaw Gaming are sitting in the tunnel, often where you see successful Rat Plays happen. And, oh, actually, no, that's Full Engage's Box they're going for. So, okay. Not entirely sure who Legends Gaming ran into then, but Easy Flash is taking the Trident well outside the ring to try and, once again, make a magical recovery.

02:51:17 Plot Shots hier von Serenity. Amounting to a whole lot. T4, still sitting around with the Whites, which is gonna take some figuring out.

02:51:36 Ich habe nicht zu viel von T4, heute. Ich bin 10th overall für dieses Lobby. Es ist nicht ein schlechtes Ergebnis, wirklich. Aber, wenn man die Situation ist, dass sie die Team kamen in den letzten Standen sind, sie wahrscheinlich brauchen ein bisschen mehr... ...unless, of course, sie gehen auf die nächste Lobby zu gewinnen, aber das scheint ein bisschen zu strechen. Und das ist das Spiel zu machen, Elfisch. Ich meine, sie landen aus Stated Coast.

02:52:02 Das ist der Zeit, und viele Teams werden einfach nur einen großen Spiel holen, wenn sie eine Zone-Full zu bekommen haben, und sie machen ihre Serie aus. Hier ist eine Revenge-On-Offer für Team Berger. Sie haben bereits das Initial Knock-On-Offer von einem KPG-Member. Es ist eigentlich 2-on-2. Die Horizon-Elevator kommt in die Spiel für Prisey, der hat sich geholfen und geholfen.

02:52:26 They were the one that 3-2-1 Team Burger earlier on, and they have paid the price because Burger has turned around and fought back, and you can see some shots into the death boxes there, but maybe that was a little bit overzealous from Team Burger, because there is a third party from Tommy Hong Kong hanging around. Actually, they're playing it safe. They're playing it safe. They're going back. Yeah, they were definitely having a look at it, but they don't want to take this fight into the zone. I mean, Burger, they're a couple hundred at least away from their purples.

02:52:56 Und Tomy und Kung sind eigentlich wahrscheinlich besser overall. Neither team ist es nicht able to get that level 3 upgrade just yet, aber es ist interessant, dass sie das so safe played. Tomy und Kung ist obviously ein Team, das Loves, Loves a bit of a scrap. Wants to get in there. They've just spotted out Final Start in A Tribune, actually.

02:53:21 Oh man!

02:53:54 Es ist jetzt ein Rauf-Rotate hier. Wai, um den Med-Kit zu haben, so er hat sogar den Gehalt, um diese Evac-Balloon zu nehmen. Ich denke, sie haben einen Rauf-Rotate da, um, zu versuchen, ihre Route durch dieses nächsten Platz. Looks wie sie werden durch die Command-Center gehen. Das ist eigentlich ziemlich frei jetzt. So es sollte ein Rauf-Rotate in. Und dann, um... Ich denke, es gibt ein Rauf-Rotate auf der Nord-Side des Ring.

02:54:20 It just depends if they run into, say, Tommy Hong Kong or XNY. As you can see there, they might go past, maybe even get a ring scan at Stormcatcher, and then make their way in as the ring is continuing to pull down towards MDY Black, who have taken over the high building there in Devastated Coast. Just keeps going in the direction of Devastated Coast, doesn't it? At least as much as it possibly can. It's not going to be able to get there completely.

02:54:48 A couple of teams up in Launchpad that also have the information that's headed in that direction, so we'll be thinking about making their moves soon. X and Y, on the other hand, have bigger things to worry about, and it is just XD that's trying to clutch it out right now, and it seems like a fruitless venture as X and Y will go down. Bearclaw Gaming happy with the spoils of war. But need to be careful themselves, because there's another team hanging around. That was...

02:55:17 Tom Yum Kung, glaube ich. Aber wieder, Tom Yum Kung! Als wir in den letzten Instanz, wo sie vielleicht 3rd-partiert haben, haben wieder gesagt nicht zu sein, und sie werden auf ihre Meri-Way gehen und weiterentwickeln. So, beide Teams sind safe.

02:55:32 Okay, looks like Team Burg, I've just got the player scan off. Let's see how that affects their decision making. We could like zone ramp. Yeah, we need to get there before these guys like, in zone, down the bottom go for it. Yeah. They're in the bottom building right now. Dude, are you retarded? Yeah, just go zone. Oh, you good.

02:56:01 Ja, ich bin.

02:56:30 Ja, das ganze Scythe war, ich habe nicht gesehen, ich habe nicht gesehen, ich habe nicht gesehen. Ja, das ist gut. Ja, das ist gut. Ja, das ist gut. Das ist gut. Oh, nekro.

02:56:50 Ich weiß nicht, wo diese Leute sind. Sie sind auf der Compound. Ja, sie sind auf der Compound. Ja, sie sind auf der Compound. Ja, sie sind auf der Compound. Ja, sie sind auf der Compound. Ah, okay. Ich habe 4 Syringer, 1 Medi. Ich habe 3 Render. Ich habe nur Health Meds. Ich kann ein paar Syringers. Ich habe 4 Syringers. Ich habe 4 Syringers. Ich habe 4 Syringers, ich habe 6 Syringers. All right, come on. A lot of people will start anything in their zone. Ja.

02:57:16 Ich glaube, wir haben zwei Teams mit Launchpad. Ja, sicher. Ich weiß, ob wir hart-wrapen alle anderen. Das ist was ich dachte. Wir haben eine Minute. Wir haben eine Minute. Wir haben eine Minute.

02:57:31 Okay, Team Burger opting to go for the Zone Wrap, luckily finding a couple of health meds there for Sharky to continue on. Pricey feeling his age with the neck, I get that. I've been to the physio recently, it's hard times out here. Yeah, indeed. Indeed, especially as you age. Something that you hear a lot, you don't really take it in as a young lad, but...

02:57:55 Starts hittin. 28, 29, I reckon. Oh, no. Starting to struggle. Oh, Tomyum, Kung, also speaking of, are struggling a little bit. Ziki with the Beast of the Hunt. Should be alright to get out of there, but the teammates may be not quite as happy about how things are playing out. So, Bearclaw Gaming will pick up a couple more kill points. Which are going to be pretty useful at this point, given that they're 13th overall still for this lobby. So, still kind of needing to get some points on the board.

02:58:24 I don't know how much time left to do it. This is the last game. Oh, nice long-range PK shot there from Belkin, actually, to finish that one off, as the other two teams, or two of the teams, in Launchpad start to fight. Berger are pulling up to this as well. They have completed the zone right now, and they are in on top of it. As you said, you know, those were important kills for Bearclaw Gaming. It's been a very slow day for them, unlike someone like Team Berger, who are really hitting their stride here, up at 50 points so far.

02:58:53 Das war's.

02:58:57 Looks like it could be a decent game for Berger as well. They have wrapped in on a pretty busy side of the zone, though. I guess that's a... You know, it's a benefit and a curse because that means you are going to be fighting a lot. You're going to be getting your Evos. You're potentially going to be getting a lot of points on the board, but... Also, there's every possibility that you're just going to go down. I mean, VK's looking very healthy. They've got a set of Reds, two sets of Purples on the high ground as well. That'll be a tough team to push into if you're Team Berger. Yeah. You are kind of cowering away underneath them at the moment.

02:59:26 Yeah, they've only really got a tiny little rock to play on. There's not a lot of cover there for Team Burger. Hopefully these other three teams are just locked into a struggle, a battle to the death here amongst themselves, and they don't catch too much of their attention.

02:59:48 Ja, wel, VK ist immer noch ein Augenblick auf ihn. Hier kommt die Rotation in von Team Verga. Die Smokes sind jetzt zu gehen. Oh, ein Crack, ein Flesh Damage auch. VK hat die High-Ground. Sie sind nicht zu über-Aggressiv. Und Verga wird okay für den Moment. Skango ist aus von Sharky. Sie haben die Info auf wo diese Teams sind. Sie wissen Akuma ist unten.

03:00:13 Bearclaw auf und dann MXF in den anderen Tunnel, als ein duo, eigentlich. Sie haben die Newcastle verloren. Das ist wirklich schwer für Bearclaw Gaming.

03:00:32 Ich weiß nicht, dass sie die Möglichkeit werden, die Rez hier werden, und der push ist, aber das war nicht sehr gut geordnetet von Akuma. Das war ein 1x1-Feed, und so Bearclawg Ami hat sich tatsächlich ein bisschen geholfen, in der Ende. Ja, Wei, also, actually gets knocked there, von Team Burger. Er dachte, er hat einen Grenaden an die ready, aber sie hat einen Augenblick auf den Weg geholfen. Und es war ein sehr...

03:01:01 Very costly mistake there from Team Burger. So instead of being in a prime position for third party some of this, well, maybe they still are. They've done a lot as a duo today. Pricey and Sharky at it again. Yeah, MXF are doing a great job of holding onto the tunnel at the moment. Watson certainly helping out with that. They've got the alternator pylon there as well as the fences. There's going to be a res through as well. It's just looking quietly like a pretty good game from MXF so far.

03:01:30 Team Burger ist auf der anderen Seite, aber es gibt noch 3 Punkte, aber Preis ist so hoch! Und Sharky ist aus der A's! Ich habe jetzt nicht mehr zu gehen, um ehrlich zu sein! MxF ist also... Oh mein Gott! ...ein der Bangalore-Alti! Oh, deary me! Team Burger hat ihn verletzt! Ja, er hat ihn verletzt! Ich weiß nicht, ob MxF wird es noch länger dauern. Nein, sie hat...

03:01:53 They got absolutely destroyed by the Rolling Thunder there, by Sharky, but I don't think they got finished off, unfortunately. Now they're gone, but because, obviously, Berger go down first, so they won't get credited with those kills. Also getting taken out on the other side of things, so with that in mind, it seems like it'll probably be Legends to take the first spot out of this lobby. With, uh, Billy Bakuma.

03:02:19 So MDY Black, they've parlayed that position in the high building up onto a fantastic spot in the zone, essentially the only team in the zone right now. Legends Gaming, as you can see, also in a...

03:02:45 A solid spot there. And then you've got another 14. It's a bit of a fruit salad up north. Basically Elfish, a couple teams just sort of really struggling. And here we go. Godhand gets mopped up. If Lu can reset here, they actually might be in a decent spot. T4 also trying to make their way out of this. And then you've got a solo Feiju. You've just got to hope for the best.

03:03:11 All right, well legends are looking pretty good at the moment top of the lobby. Let's see how the let's hear rather how they play out this final game Yeah, I'm playing close on bangle careful they're pumped trying to need

03:03:36 We sure yeah, yeah, it's free. It's free. We win this fucking game. Look back. Okay. I'm dodging bang. Look behind us. Bang. No, no, no. Thanks one.

03:04:02 Ich hab ihn. Ich hab ihn. Ich hab ihn. Ich hab ihn. Wir haben ihn. Wir haben ihn. Wir haben ihn. Wir haben ihn. Wir haben ihn. Wir haben ihn. Wir haben ihn. Wir haben ihn. Wir haben ihn. Wir haben ihn. Wir haben ihn. Wir haben ihn. Wir haben ihn.

03:04:32 I'm swinging left here, I'm swinging left. I hit him, 30. Ben me, ben me, ben me. I caught him. Let's fucking go, boys. Let's fucking go, boys. I cannot scream, bro. I cannot scream, bro. 14 points and a win. I cannot screaming, bro. Oh.

Legends Gaming dominiert die APAC South Pro League: Ein Rückblick auf ihren Erfolg

03:04:59

03:04:59 Für 6, Gino. Wir hatten Wonton Dumplin get knocked out in 9th place, die ich glaube, hat Legends Gaming gelegt. Und du kannst die Energie und die Kraft hören, die sie hatten in der finalen Spiel. Exzeptionale. Ich meine, sie wussten, dass sie es war.

03:05:14 Right, I mean, you heard the calls, they were very well aware, laughing in the final moments because they knew how easy that cleanup was going to be once it was just, you know, a few scraps of the other teams left to go. Wow, that was a pretty awesome performance there by Legends Gaming in our first series for today. Yeah, that's... They really continue to impress, don't they? And, you know, we had that interview with Strafing Flame earlier on in the split.

03:05:43 And we got to hear how they've been struggling in some ways, but certainly it's not reflected on the leaderboard.

03:05:50 Oh, yeah, you can't see that reflection whatsoever. They just seem to go in and absolutely obliterate everything, taking out ample kills for the team, too. But yeah, it's just delightful to hear, you know, the passion and the fun that they still have going into that last game. You know, it can get a bit tedious, but when you're in front of the pack, you know, you've got to have smiles all around Elvish. Yeah, indeed, indeed. I mean, obviously, yeah, they're still keen to win. I was listening to that conversation that they were having. Well, maybe not so much a conversation as a shouting match, but I was thinking...

03:06:19 You guys have already basically dominated this lobby. At this point, I think you should know that you've won the lobby regardless of how this game actually plays out. And in turn, you've also probably won the split potentially as well. It kind of depends, I guess, on how wonton dumpling goes in the next lobby there.

03:06:39 Die BNC-Lobby. Aber im Moment, sie sind noch immer wieder auf den Punkt zu bekommen, das ist toll zu sehen. Das ist die Fight, das ist die Kompetitive-Nature, die diese Leute haben. Und das ist, ich glaube, das ist die Grund, warum sie auf den Topsten sind. Ja. Und das ist, ich glaube, das ist die Grund, warum sie auf den Topsten sind. Aber sie werden nicht in den Topsten stehen, aber sie werden in den Topsten stehen. Und es ist ein tolles Spiel von ihnen, um es zu Ende. Ja, der letzte Spiel für Legends Gaming ist. Der letzte Spiel ist Bearclaw Gaming, auch. Ich weiß nicht, ob Sie sehen können, da waren...

03:07:06 Ja, big one. 80 points. I don't know if... I think that might actually be the strongest lobby of the...

03:07:35 ... ... ... ... ...

03:08:02 Within striking distance to make it into the top 20 overall. For T4, that's kind of the conversation that they're thinking about at the moment. I think that's a guess. Probably done enough for them if they have a really high placing in the next lobby as well. But obviously it's a tough ask. So we'll see how things go when we do get into that next lobby. But yeah, overall, a couple of teams that we expected to be toward the top end.

03:08:23 Ich glaube, es war das, was die Lobby zu tun. Das war, was die Lobby zu tun, die Legends Gaming zu tun. Wonton Dumpling haben wirklich gut gemacht. Team Berger hat sich auch gut gemacht. Aber ein paar andere Teams, die in der Bühne sind in der Bühne, sind in der Bühne. Aber ein paar andere Teams, die in der Bühne sind in der Bühne sind, haben sich in der Bühne gehalten. Und sie haben sich in der Bühne gehalten, um das nächste Lobby zu tun.

03:08:43 Yeah, Lightning Unicorn, I think were one there that I'm going to note, you know, they were in 16th. They had an epic start to the season, then had a couple of, what, two split point rounds. So that's something like, I don't know, 18th in the group, which is obviously horrendous. But now a bounce back, and they're pushing further towards definitely making regional finals, I would say. But, you know, maybe even an outside chance to make it towards LAN, or perhaps just try and grab that match point victory and send themselves...

03:09:13 um, straight overseas.

03:09:16 Like you said, they did start out quite strong in our first couple of weeks in the split. And then, yeah, had a bit of a mediocre push there and not collecting enough kill points. But yeah, just seeing them be able to turn it around is absolutely exceptional. One of our favorite logos of all time. I definitely know I love Lightning Unicorn and all that they do. So I really hope that this is enough to put them in those top 20 squads. But like you were saying before, Elfish, T4 are right down the bottom.

03:09:45 Ja, ja, most definitely. I'll have to have a bit of a deeper look into it over the break and see exactly what they would need to do and where they'd need to place. And, you know, I think there's a few teams that are probably in a position where it's like, well, if you don't win the lobby, you're not going through to next week.

03:10:11 The fact that you're toward, you know, maybe like 28, 29 sort of position overall for the season. Chances are you're probably not a team that's going to be of the caliber to win a lobby. So it's going to be a tough ask to do. But, you know, it's always sort of relevant to talk about it when it is mathematically going to be possible. And at the end of the day, it's going to take a lot of work for some of those teams to make it happen. But not the case for Legends, obviously, sitting on top of the pack.

03:10:36 I mean, 2 firsts, right? 1 map away from grabbing a bonus point there, and even on the other side of it, they were, what, like 35 points ahead of the next team or something? So, again, about 15 points away from getting a bonus point that way. So, that in itself tells you this was a pretty dominating performance here from Legends Gaming.

03:10:58 Ja, und wenn wir an, ich glaube, das Series-Points, was das Pushten bis zu 109, aber Wanton Dumplingen noch haben, das Chance zu spielen wieder. Aber es ist, ich glaube, wenn sie aus den nächsten Wien nehmen, das noch nicht genug ist. Also, es sieht aus wie, you know...

03:11:14 Legends Gaming have solidified themselves that first place, which is absolutely exceptional. We're going to see some other teams competing. I'm a little bit fearful for the likes of VK Gaming, who really need to push themselves a little further because you're going to have aggressive teams come in like Dreamfire and Boogie Boarders. Will they have the stamina to compete in another six matches and really push themselves above the top 20 teams? I'm definitely looking at Warmonster 5.

03:11:43 für unsere nächste Serie, die mit Lightning Unicorn starten sehr stark, und dann eine reale Precipitas-Fall-Off. Aber es gibt immer noch eine Chance, dass sie das Regional-Final machen können. Und mit so einer Shake-Up hier in Season 20, ich fühle mich, dass das wirklich eine Chance gibt. Es ist wie ein Mental-Reset für viele diese Teams, die vielleicht brauchen eine Motivation, einen Weg zurück in die Split.

03:12:13 Yeah, we always talk about that, you know, there's playing the six matches and sort of getting yourself into it and then playing another six. A lot of teams can either, you know, feel the fatigue or it can be on the opposite end of the spectrum. It can be, you know, they're warm-up games for the first six and then, you know, the next six they have, they absolutely dominate. So it could go either way for the teams there. But, you know, it's been absolutely amazing watching, you know, Lightning Unicorn perform and Legends Gaming, of course.

03:12:43 Vielen Dank.

03:13:08 solidified the changes do you feel like they've kind of got these changes under the reins as we would say yeah i mean it's an interesting conversation to have i think it's probably a bigger conversation than what we can really afford to have on a platform like this but

03:13:23 My gut feeling would be that it's still probably a little bit too early to tell exactly where things are going to land. I mean, the teams have had, what, a couple of weeks of scrims? And I've been seeing scrims, like, every single day, basically. People are playing a lot. They're trying to sort of get skilled up, get ready to go. But I wouldn't be hugely surprised to see things changing over the next couple of weeks. And also, you know, presumably there's going to be some, like, patches, you know, little minor fixes here and there, these sorts of things. Like, certain things are going to be buffed, nerfed, etc., changed. So, things could...

03:13:52 Could definitely sort of change up over the next couple of weeks. So I would say for now, we're in a good spot, but I would expect things to change, yeah. Yeah. And, you know, we've got something a little bit special for you guys. You've been watching this team absolutely dominate the competition, Legends Gaming. We do have Strafing here on the line. Probably going to give us a nice little outlook of how they've just been playing. We heard the giggles. We heard the passion. And now we get to talk to Strafing.

03:14:21 Hello, hello. Hello there, Strafing. How are you feeling taking out the win in that last match and absolutely dominating across this whole season? Myself and the casters were just feeling the passion from you guys, having a nice laugh at the end. Were you sort of taking it seriously or were you just having a bit of fun?

03:14:45 Wir wollen es aufzuhören. Wir wollen es aufzuhören. Es ist toll, dass wir wieder in die Groove auf dem Weg bringen und endlich in die Wunschung wiederholfen haben. Nach unserer Vorbereitung der Woche war es ein bisschen uninspirational. Bringing es zurück, das 22-Kill-Games an Syphon, das war wirklich gut.

03:15:10 Ja, das war nuts. Ich meine, okay, wir sprechen über das ein bisschen mehr, denn wir hatten vieles mit dem Vision, und eine andere Sache, die mich wirklich beeinflusst, war die Abilität zu Reset. Und es war wirklich, als wir, ein paar Leute gesehen haben, ein paar Leute warst du, aber du warst jetzt einfach nur durch diese Teams und wieder zu resetzen und wieder zu gehen. Was ist das die Hauptsache da? Oh, wir haben tatsächlich gearbeitet, um...

03:15:34 Ich weiß nicht, dass ich keine Gelegenheiten habe, aber ich werde das Kredite geben. Für das Kredite zu Dan, unser Coach Nioh. Er war sehr dankbar, dass wir unsere Resetung gemacht haben. Wir haben wirklich gut gemacht.

03:15:53 Und das ist toll zu sehen. Und ich glaube, ich wollte auch sagen, Strafing, wir haben einfach major changes zu Apex Legends. Obviamente, keine Ahnung, all deine secrets zu geben, aber die Evo Shields und die Meta. Wie haben Sie, ich glaube, alle die Veränderungen in so eine kurze Zeit gemacht? Hatte ihr es einfach oder ein bisschen schwierig zu finden?

Analyse der Spielveränderungen und Conduit Perk Wahl

03:16:19

03:16:19 So I think it was a really healthy change for the game, right? And I did find it a little bit, like, hard. But that's just because of the amount of changes, right? There's so many things that could, like, happen in a game now that there's so many more factors that go into, like, all of the abilities. I think the hardest part, though, is just that Apex South Scrims, you know, they didn't really start for a while. So we were struggling to get games in once the new update dropped.

03:16:48 We were pretty confident we were going to figure it out, and we kind of didn't. Alright, well I guess to sort of round things out, obviously you guys are done with all of your games, you're not playing in the next lobby. You're currently, I'll say, sitting on top of the overall standings. Is there any concern about potentially dropping off of first place? I mean Wanton Dumpling are relatively close behind, or do you think you've done enough with that win in this lobby to sort of stay on top for the overall standings going into next week?

03:17:16 Ja, look, ich liebe Gugu, aber ich bin auf der Aufmerksamkeit. Ein bisschen 20th Place würde uns nicht wirklich helfen. Ja, wir warten auf 1st Place für ein bisschen, aber wir wollen es auch wieder zurück in den Regional Finals bringen. Ich denke, wir sind endlich wieder in Form. Und wir sind sehr confident.

03:17:39 Definitely expecting you guys to be very strong when we get those top 20 teams over there in Regional Finals. One more question from me, Strafing. You guys were picking up the Conduit a bit today. We were having a look at some of the stats before, and I was actually quite surprised to see only 60% of the teams were picking up the double Radiant Transfer perk, and then 40% were picking up the extra 10m range. Which one were you guys going for, and why?

03:18:08 So we were actually going for the 10 meter range, but it's not really for the range. It's more the double doubles the cooldown. So it essentially makes Conduit a lot less flexible, because for 30 seconds, like for the same amount of cooldown, you're only getting half the heal, right? So theoretically, if you have both heals, that's always going to be better than just one heal, because it's a lot more flexible, like in the things you can do with it. But practically that doubling of the cooldown, like that hurts a lot.

03:18:39 Okay, yeah, wow, great insight there. Yeah, that's interesting to hear, because, you know, Gino and I were kind of discussing, I guess, would people use it more in rank when you're sort of playing, you know, solo in a rank match and your team's running away, but interesting to hear from yourself and the reason as to why, I guess, you break it down in that sense. Yeah.

03:19:00 Yeah, thank you for asking, bud.

03:19:28 Alles ist gut, ja. Wir sind sehr froh, dass wir sicherlich vorbereiten werden und besser als wir hatten, als wir das letzte Mal hatten. Ich habe schon immer wieder geholfen können, meine Injury ist nicht mehr zu halten, und ich kann so viel mehr als ich möchte, so das ist wirklich gut für die Team. Das ist so gut zu hören.

03:19:52 Well, that's all the questions I think we have for you, Strafe. Thank you so very much for answering the ins and outs from a professional level. I know myself and I'm sure the casters as well. It's been an absolute pleasure watching you and also, you know, wrangling in Easy Flash and all the craziness that he does as well. So thank you so very much for chatting to us today. And you need to go and relax, sir, because you have had such an epic start to split one. So thank you very much.

03:20:21 Thank you for having me. Anytime. And you know what? It's always really good to get a chat with our pros genome. We have a couple of listens in when they're live and happening in the match, but just to have them break down what goes through their minds afterwards is truly exceptional. Yeah, I think he's probably got the best record.

03:20:46 of anyone we've listened to in terms of closing out games while we're actually hearing them. So yeah, not a bad record there for Legends Gaming. Exactly right. And that was our final match there, Ed.

03:21:00 Match 6 on Stormpoint for our first couple of groups. We're going to take a little bit of a longer break now. I'm sure we're going to eat a lot of food, us casters. So we'll take a break. We will see you after this. And we're going to have our next lot of groups. So we'll see you shortly.

03:50:48 Punishing. Bloat. Real.

Überblick über Teams und Strategien in der APAC South Pro League

03:51:21

03:51:21 I hope you had time to just settle yourselves and get some snacks. I sure shoved some food in my mouth. And we are the Longshot Production. And we're broadcasting the Apex South region. You know, we have teams from Australia, Singapore, Thailand, China and more. And if you've been watching from the start, you would have just witnessed Legends Gaming take out the win for Group A versus C. With Wonton Dumpley closely behind. So, you know, our Groups B and C will now be showing us what they're made of. You'll see the return of some fan favourites like Boogie Boarders.

03:51:50 Dreamfire and Heroes, who were previously known as Kokoi. Gino, we'll need to keep a close eye on some teams that may be on the cusp of making it to the Regional Finals. Well, it's funny that you even say, you know, with Wonton Dumpling just coming behind Legends Gaming as well, Lace, because if you look at the overall standings, it's the same picture there. So, you know, 1 and 2, very consistent and, uh...

03:52:15 14 points behind them actually at the moment. So obviously Legends Gaming aren't playing in the upcoming series. And yeah, that's their chance essentially to overtake them and try and make it to first place going into the regional finals.

03:52:32 Yeah, exactly right. You know, I want to have a touch on VK Gaming, you know, as we look to see who needs to get themselves in those top couple of squads. Sitting, what, about 21st. They just played in that. They've got another chance now. I think I was having a look. There was a team that won't be in this round that are only sitting like 1450. So they very much well might have a big chance to push themselves up into that top 20 quite easily. Elfish, who are you going to be keeping your eye on who needs to really, you know, outperform some teams today?

03:53:00 Yeah, that team you were looking at was Overlook Esports. They were the team that aren't actually playing in this lobby, that are currently sitting in 19th place, and it's VK Gaming that is two points, two overall standing points behind, so they should be able to overtake that and should be able to make it into the top 20 potentially. For me, yeah, I think obviously those kinds of teams are the ones that I'm looking at, but I also sort of wanted to touch on Monton Dunkling as well. Like you said, you know, 14 points behind, that would mean they would need a 6th or better.

03:53:28 in this lobby to take the top spot overall although if they were to get a 6 then they'd be equal on points i'm not sure how the head-to-head would play out there with them up against legends gaming so that'll be something we have to sort of look into over the course of this evening but uh as far as teams are concerned that you know maybe dnz look i mean they're a bit of a stretch fong as well uh full engage

03:53:51 So es ist wahrscheinlich D&Z, Full Engage, VK Gaming, dass ich vielleicht sehen kann, aus dem Bottom 10, in die Top 20. Ja, und am Ende der Zeit, unsere Teams sind natürlich für diese Spots zu spielen, aber natürlich gibt es die Prizingen in den eigenen Händen. Wir haben 125,000 Dollar für unsere Region jetzt. Wir haben jetzt endlich eine Top Region, das ist ziemlich spannend. Das ist 20,000 Dollar für unsere Region.

03:54:17 for our first place winner. So although we're always looking to see who's going to make it to LAN, it's still the fighting spot. Get some money, Genome. So, you know, there's a lot on the line for all teams playing. Absolutely. That's some good money there. Certainly better than we've ever had before in APAC South. So yeah, you kind of, you'll love to see it, frankly. But, you know, maybe we should also have a chat about some of the...

03:54:44 The interesting Season 20s, you know, sort of things we saw. Okay, we've got the tournament scoreboard ready. So just to cap off what we were saying about where everyone's standing here, as you can see, Legends Gaming up the top leading the way, but they're not playing in this series. So that will give the chance for Wanton Dumpling to try and overtake them. Burger, Serenity, Akuma, so that's 345, also not playing in this series. So then teams like...

03:55:11 You know, Boogie Boarders, Tom Young-Kung, Heroes, maybe even X and Y I'll keep my eye on, also going to have a chance to jump up in these standings.

03:55:20 Yeah, you know, you've got Wonton Dumpling there. They've been playing six matches. Fatigue could hit them and they might not even, you know, overtake Legends Gaming. So we still need to sort of keep a close eye. Like you said, only 14 points ahead. And then, you know, we have a look at the bottom. And I know Elfish was saying Overlooked Entertainment won't be competing in this round. And then we have VK Gaming. They just need to get a couple of points and they can put themselves in that top 20. We obviously see the likes of Dreamfire back as well, sitting, you know, kind of in that medium spot.

03:55:49 Um, which I do believe that they'll probably be able to solidify themselves a spot today. You know, they had a bit of a rocky start, um, to the start of our split. We're, you know, very excited to see, uh, them play out, but they didn't really give the show that they were used to, uh, you know, uh, at champs and stuff like that. But, uh, in the last couple of weeks, they managed to pull it together, Elfish. Yeah, definitely. Um, actually, one of the other teams here that we were talking about quite a lot in the previous lobby was T4.

03:56:18 Und wir haben gesagt, dass sie ein guter Lobbys haben, sie vielleicht noch nicht in den Top 20 zu können. Mathematisch, es ist doch möglich, wenn sie das Lobby gewinnen und die 25 Punkte gewinnen können, gehen zu 49. Vielleicht ist es eine Chance, aber es scheint. Und der andere Sache, dass ich hier auch, und ich weiß, dass wir immer wieder zurückkehren sind, ist, dass alle Lobbys, dass sie in diesem Spiel gespielt haben.

03:56:45 In only one of them would they have not scored enough points to actually top, uh, like if they would have scored that amount in, in, in this game, in this lobby today, um, in only one of those lobbies that they played so far would they not be able to overtake Legends with the result that they got. So, every other result that they've had, they've had enough points if they were to get it again today to overtake, because they've had a lot of seconds, they're a couple seconds, they had a first, uh, they had a fourth in there as well, and then there was, uh, I think like a seventh or an eighth or something like that. Uh, it was an eighth.

03:57:12 So, their worst result has been an eighth overall, and that was only once. Everything else has been far better than that. So, I think they're probably a good shout to make it through to first place, even if they are, as you say, a little bit fatigued by having played earlier on today.

Anpassung an Season 20 und neue Strategien

03:57:25

03:57:25 Ja, so I guess, you know, we're going to have some new teams sort of joining in, the Boogie Boarders, you know, and like we've touched on before, Season 20 changes are here. We're going to have some new teams that are going to have to show us how they use these new changes. We obviously had six matches where we've seen, you know, a lot of people kill spiders or take a different rotation to make sure that they can get a higher shield because, you know, it is a massive change to the game, Gino.

03:57:54 Es ist großartig. Es hat fast alle Parten gemacht. Und ich denke, dass die Leute nicht erwartet sind, Lace, ist, dass sie in Season 20 sind, die Perks waren, ist das alles, was alle gesagt haben. Aber wenn man sieht, wie Competitiv ist, die Evo-Change ist und die Upgrade-System, die mit den Evo-Präsenzen sind, wie man die Evo-Präsenzen hat, die Evo-Präsenzen hat, hat tatsächlich mehr Impactful.

03:58:22 Uh, you know, the perks maybe have changed a little bit, uh, how useful some of the legends are. You know, that's why we've seen a little bit of a resurgence of Watson. Um, you know, Bloodhound's scan getting buffed has certainly helped him a little bit. Um, but there's other reasons behind that. Um, but really, it was just the ego changes and how that's affecting looting and, uh, pathing throughout the game that is, uh, has been the...

03:58:48 Ja, genau. Und würde man fühlen, die Teams sind ... in den ersten paar Spielen, dass viele Teams in den ersten paar Spielen sind, weil sie die Schilds gegründet haben, weil sie die Schilds gegründet haben. Most der Zeit, sie haben sich auf die Blüte gegründet und sie waren bereit, sie haben die Luft gegründet und sie waren bereit. Sie haben die Luft gegründet und sie waren bereit, sie haben die Luft gegründet und sie waren bereit. Aber du hast ...

03:59:12 Forgive me if I'm wrong, but more teams are taking it a little bit slower to make a rotation due to the fact they want to level up their Evos. Yeah, well, they have to make trade-offs, right? Like, you can choose to, you know, still go faster, but it's not necessarily going to help you later on when you're like, oh, gosh, we probably should have hit that, you know, that extra...

03:59:33 Evo Harvester oder zwei, weil wir nicht unsere Level 3 Upgrades haben. Manchmal ist das eine große Herausforderung. Manchmal ist das eine große Herausforderung. Manchmal ist es nicht so viel. Obviamente die Armour immer hilft, dass das extra Health zu spielen. Watson hier ist einer der Herausforderungen wir gesehen haben.

03:59:53 Ich kann auch gerne von den Falling Stars sehen, wie wir sehen, wie das fun, kleine Stretchen in der Trenche, wo, wie Elfish puttet, es war ein Tennis-Match, mit denen die Teams einfach nur die Arks ab und ab und ab und ab und ab und ab. Das ist hilarious. Ja, ich weiß nicht, ich weiß nicht, dass sie es für ein guter 5 Minuten war. Es war nicht so, als es eine eine-offe Sache war, denn als Legends in der Trenche wurde...

04:00:17 Ja, es ist interessant zu sehen, wie sie diese Legends haben. Und wir haben vorhin schon gesagt, dass wir unsere Major Picks haben, die Bloodhound, die Caustic Meta. Aber es ist nicht so, wie sie über die Pläne sind.

04:00:46 We always have World's Edge and we'll see certain legends picked. Then the map changes and they're going to have to think about something different. But it seems as though we are seeing the same across each map, which is something I feel like we haven't seen in competitive a lot. So, you know, is this just what everybody's playing or is this just what they know so far? Because there's still so much to learn and indulge in this Season 20. There's still a lot of characters where they may have not actually, I guess, selected.

04:01:15 them and trial them out for comp yeah i think there's probably an element of that right where you have to have a you know there's going to be certain players certain teams that are like kind of just seeing what's the meta what what people are playing and going all right well that's that's what we'll try i guess we'll just play that um but you know have they had enough time to kind of explore all the options i don't know maybe not but you know you do also sort of have those players that are going to have like certain comfort peaks that they're going to want to go to as well and maybe they've explored a little bit with that but have they really gone in depth with it maybe not

Analyse der Teamlandungen und unerwartete Ereignisse auf World's Edge

04:01:43

04:01:43 Yeah, so while we are sort of discussing all the changes, let's have a look at where our teams will be landing. We're going to head to World's Edge first. Gino, why don't you take us through and show us where our teams will be landing? All right, so we have had a couple of shifts around here. I think we were previously getting a contest for Lava Siphon. Now, this was sort of the latest information.

04:02:08 Because NoCredit, I believe, will be loading in as a duo today, I don't know if that means they get Lava Siphon anymore. Because, you know, why would KillDevil and DNZ fight over Harvester if they can just go and bully a two-man out of one of the best POIs on World's Edge? So I kind of do expect that to change, even if we haven't had that info drop on us yet. Likewise, FullEngage over there, obviously, we've seen in our first series today also a duo. But, you know, no one's going to try and take guys.

04:02:37 away from them, right? Um, and then looking further around, uh, you know, boogie boarders not having to worry about a contest here. They do or should get Lava Fissure and Mirage Atoile to themselves. Um, and yeah, that's, uh, that's, that's kind of, uh, what I'm seeing pop up here on World's Edge.

04:02:57 Ja, ich glaube, wir haben ein paar Veränderungen gesehen. Boogie Boarders, wie du gesagt hast, hat Mirage Atoile und dann jemand immer mit Lava zu haben. Das ist ein bisschen ein Veränderung, glaube ich, von den letzten paar Wochen. Ja, ein bisschen, ein bisschen. Es ist ein bisschen, ein bisschen. Es ist ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen. Es ist ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen, ein bisschen.

04:03:22 Exactly right. And we're going to gear up. We are now in our Groups B vs C. This is going to be our first match on World's Edge.

04:03:34 All righty, let's get into it and see how things are gonna shake up for our second lobby of the day. It is B and C. What? What's so funny? What's happening? Lava Siphon is completely... Empty! Empty? What? What on earth is... Like, surely, if you're the dome team, right? Like, if you're T4, surely you just rock up and be like, all right, we'll take it, like...

04:04:01 Ich weiß nicht, dass ich in Dome meine ganze Zeit habe. Die Rotation ist etwas Atrocious. Das ist... Okay, ein bisschen wild Lobby. Wir haben D&Z, um ihn zu solo. No Credit, als wir gesagt haben, und Full Engage, beide duos. All right, ein bisschen Lobby zu Endeffekt hier mit Elfisch. Ja, ich bin actually, uh, XQ von D&Z. Er ist das Solo, wie du gesagt hast, und er ist hinter einem Rock.

04:04:28 We're not sure what the plan is for him actually, but also what are no credit doing like where did they land like? nowhere outside the sort of the train tunnel or something like did they get scared off by dive trails man that is Just wild that is frankly just wild. Well, you know what's gonna be crazy is like Presumably people are gonna see this off of this game and then you're gonna have to wonder what

04:04:55 Ja. Ja. Ja.

04:05:22 Ich will nur noch ein paar Worte, aber der Leiste der Kredite hat, dass sie die Ring recht gut haben, ohne die Ring-Information zu haben. Also, wenn sie mit der Caustik bunker sind, gibt es eine Chance, dass sie sogar noch ein paar Punkte bekommen haben. Wir werden sehen, wie es geht. Wir sehen, wie es geht. Ich habe noch einen Blick auf XQ, der hat eine Ground-Tradale gemacht hat.

04:05:48 But, uh, besides the point, we do have a couple of shots getting tossed in here by heroes. No real connections just yet. VK Gaming was one of the teams that we said we would like to keep a bit of an eye on. It seems like they're in the mix pretty early on in the piece, so they're keeping a pretty keen eye in their direction over the course of this lobby. See if they can maintain their reasonable run of form today and make it into the top 20. I've got my faith. I think they're looking good enough to make it into the top 20.

04:06:16 Okay, well, put your neck on the line. We'll see if they can back that up. Hannah! Kind of popping off with the 30-30 already. I'm sure there's a couple of fans out there of the Boogie Boarders. Happy to see them back for our second series today. And off to a good start with two kills. That's them rolling up on Warmonster Firebird in staging.

04:06:49 Ja, 1-1 zu Firebird kind of fell off a little bit, didn't they, after you talked about them quite a bit last week. Didn't really get much done last week, and what a good start for this week either. A lot of promise. A lot of promise early on, and unfortunately they've not realized so much of it, but there's still a chance they do make that Regional Finals, so again, I'm definitely kidding.

04:07:13 Der nächste step ist, wir sind in der Anfortunaten spot, wieder zu starten, um einen Lobby zu starten. Sie sind nicht so gut als die vorherigen Lobby, wo sie waren, wo sie geteilt waren. Und dann sind wir irgendwie geteilt da. Ich glaube, wir können es Progresse. Progresse ist gut. Ich kann es.

04:07:46 Ich habe einen Blick auf die Picks durch dieses Lobby. Obviamente, mit ein paar Leuten missing, es ist etwas schwerer zu sagen. Aber das sagt, Kaustik sehr prevalent. J.R. von XNY auf den Fuse. Ich bin nicht sicher, ob wir ihn spielen.

04:08:05 Cause he was in, uh, they were playing in the first series, right? And I don't recall any Fuse coming up. There was no Fuse in the first series, no. Yeah, right. So, okay, that's already an interesting pick coming out there. He's opted for the, uh, the reduced damage from Motherlow, that's his first perk. See whether or not that continues over the course of today.

04:08:33 Oder vielleicht war es ein Miss-Click? Ich glaube, das ist... Ich glaube, das ist... Ich glaube, das ist... Ich glaube, das ist... Ich glaube, das ist... Ich glaube, das ist... Ich glaube, das ist... Ich glaube, das ist... Ich glaube, das ist... Ich glaube, das ist... Ich glaube, das ist... Ich glaube, das ist... Ich glaube, das ist... Ich glaube, das ist... Ich glaube, das ist... Ich glaube, das ist... Ich glaube, das ist...

04:09:03 Well, again, I will, I'll get interested if we see it again in the next game. Or that way.

04:09:11 By the way, this has been a little bit of a quieter game so far. I think not too big of a surprise considering Full Engage came in with the only one player, D&Z only one player, no credit two players, so a bit more space actually available around the place. Just a couple of teams, essentially quote unquote missing, even though they're not missing, they are here. Like XQ, I don't think you can really count as a team that's really showing any kind of presence.

04:09:36 Ja, das ist sehr fair. Das bedeutet, dass wir wahrscheinlich noch einen EARLIER haben. Oh, sorry. EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER-EARLIER

04:10:05 Ja.

04:10:30 Wir sind ein bisschen mehr professionell. Ja, wir wissen, wenn wir die Region Finale haben, wir haben eine Voll-Lobby. Die Teams deserve to be there, will be there. No doubt about that. Rangalore, Ultimate, in der Distance. Du kannst sie da.

04:10:53 BK Gaming... Still yet to get a point on the board. Job isn't super difficult for them in this lobby. I think they really just need to have sort of a middle-of-the-pack play-easing, as long as they don't go completely missing. Should be making it into the top 20. As we mentioned, the team that they do have to kind of focus on catching, at least for the moment, is Overlook Esports, who are only a few points ahead of them and are not playing in this lobby, so... You'd have to...

04:11:18 Du hast einen wirklich schlechten Tag, um nicht zu übernehmen zu können. Die andere Sache ist natürlich, dass die Team below sie werden, wenn sie dort übernehmen können. Und das wird ein bisschen mehr Spice zu dem Mixbox geben. Und das ist auch, dass sie drei oder vier Placenzen von diesen Lower-Teams sind, also. So, ihr habt schon schon ein paar auf dem Board, um das zu verurteilen. Oh, J.R. hat sich gebeten. Und, X.D.

04:11:43 Receiving some of the similar responses, though, that extra move speed off the Bangalore passive is helping out. Yeah, there's no way JR was getting out of that one alive, though. Well, I'm already mad at Tom Young-Kung then, because they've just denied us the opportunity to see a level 3 upgrade. You know, get a stat line there from the Fusey. That's always next game. He was only like 100 EVO off, though. Come on, guys. Just let him trade a bit.

04:12:12 I need the data. We can't have all the things that we want in life, you know? So true. So wise. You tend to realise that.

04:12:35 Nein. Ich habe mich wirklich hart daran gedacht. Wow. Brain empty. Das ist nur eine, gläubige Frage. Das kam zu dir. Oh, Compound Interest. Das ist alles. Okay. Ja. Hashtag, nichtfinancialadvice. Aber ja, es ist, um... Wenn du 15 Jahre alt bist, ist es, um... Wenn du 15 Jahre alt bist, ist es, um... Wenn du 15 Jahre alt bist, ist es, um... ...undervatet.

04:13:03 Es ist einfach so... Surely, es ist eine Apex-Einlogie, wir können hier machen.

04:13:09 Kind of like when you get blue evo off of getting free ring scans, and then you fight a guy who has white evo, and then you beat him, and then you get purple evo, and then when you've got purple evo, you run into a guy who's got blue evo, and then because you're stronger than him already, you get even stronger. Yeah, yeah. I was thinking more like old school, you know, it's like, yeah, you drop pretty much the same thing, but like, you know, say you drop on a purple armor, and then you can start bullying people, all of a sudden it just starts snowballing from there, right? Yeah, exactly.

04:13:36 I mean, that is kind of the esports word for compound interest, isn't it? It's a snowball. Snowball, yeah. I've been using esports terminology with my girlfriend a little bit sometimes. Really? We've been like on public transport and we've been like on a bus that's like running late. And I'm like, man, this bus driver is W-keying a lot. What are you even saying? Wait, she doesn't know that yet? You guys have been together for ages. Nah, she does. She does. But it's like not like a...

04:14:05 Das ist nicht normalerweise in deinem Vernacular, wenn du ein normaler Mensch bist. Das ist... Ja, unlike uns, of course. Exactly. Ja. Anyway, wir haben noch ein bisschen insight in die Zone-Pulling. Wir gehen in die Richtung SWQ, die sind nach dem EASTERN EDGE von World's Edge. Das ist schon etwas Neues. Wir werden nicht sehen, wie das eine Zone-Pull all das oft. Wookiee-Board ist auch auf dem Weg. Hmm... Fun, north.

04:14:32 North of Overlook, SWQ, yeah, they're the kind of guys. Sitting in Godspot right now, zoned, pulling to them, set up with their backs through the mountains, very good spot. Other teams, all kind of moving in a lot, especially from the west. Teams like Kill Devil here. I think they're kind of hoping someone's going to come in from behind them and they can hold the bridge, but I think they're going to be sorely disappointed.

04:15:03 Well, this will be an interesting rotate because there's a lot of teams that you're gonna have to fly over right now, but we've all just seemed to be doing it relatively unscathed. A little bit worried about Racky, but he's okay. Oh, nevermind. Yeah, that's not looking good at all, is it? That is gonna go in the blink of an eye. Paner! There's no chance of me getting that battle. RIP!

04:15:28 Das ist die Rippin-Pepperonis für unsere Boogie-Boarders da. Ich glaube, sie können nicht mehr move. Es ist wie sie landen in Quicksand, mit einem Caustic-Hulp auf dem. Oh, das war nicht so gut. Und hier wir gehen. All right, Slow Time ist over. Jetzt ist es Zeit für Kill.

04:15:46 I thought Dreamfire was going to be in a bit more of a difficult spot there, but they actually managed to get the revive and they're going to be okay. Now they can start to put some hurt back in on their opponents, so pick up a couple more pieces of loot here and there. Red dot site on the vault, love it. Best site in the game. I'm kidding, right?

04:16:12 2x Bruiser, any day. Red Dot is THE GOAT. You can see everything. The more you can see, the better. This is my philosophy. Further with the 2x though, mate. Enhance your eyes. Anyway, how about this one? That's a pretty good scope too. Yeah, I wish it had Thread on it though. Especially in this meta. It'd be too opay with it, but it's like why they've just removed the Digi from the Wingman. It'd be too good, but I still want it.

04:16:46 Well, AGL probably don't want what is happening to them right now because they are getting bullied, they are getting isolated. It just feels like a bunch of individual fights that they're taking and getting picked off. One of them will make it out, or maybe not, I was wrong. That'll be AGL eliminated. We're starting to see that killfeed light up a little bit now as we get deeper into the game.

04:17:10 None of these teams are in there. That's the thing, right? It's still pretty much only SWQ in the zone. Maybe when things cool down just a little bit, we can have a look at the map over here. But I can tell you, a spot like this from Tonyon Cooney is fantastic because they've got so much vision down on people below them. You can see, that's why they're really just starting to dish out the damage. But with 30 seconds left, they have to start thinking about the next rotation. Now, other teams are evacuating in. They're taking the...

04:17:36 Ja, sie sind einfach nur das an dem Moment. Sie haben sich einen Knopf oder zwei auf dem Weg zu machen. Wir gehen jetzt über MXF, die in eine Pricht-Battel sind in diesem Zeitpunkt. Und sie haben sich auch noch einen Knopf oder zwei auf dem Weg zu machen. Wir gehen jetzt über MXF, die in einer Pricht-Battel sind in diesem Zeitpunkt. Und sie haben sich auch noch einen Krabbershop. Es ist MXF-DOWN. Holy cow, look at die Killfeeders. Sie sind einfach crazy.

04:18:04 Seven squads left alive. There's six now. Oh my word, it just doesn't stop. Yeah, that was just one of those circles. I mean, as I said, no one was inside the circle. Like, that's what is gonna happen. And it's still not over just yet. Kill Devil actually looking to finish off from Young Kung. And they do. Heroes have been playing a little safer from the bottom side here. Trying to use the knockdown shield of Kissands.

Spannungsgeladene Endphase und SWQ sichert sich den Sieg

04:18:30

04:18:30 ...to deal with Kill Devil. It's a 2v2 on that side. Montorn Dumpling, surely at some point they just go ham and push one of these two teams. At this point, SWQ are kind of just sitting there scratching their heads, being like, I mean, thanks for the win, guys, but like, why are none of you in here inside the circle with us? SWQ are bing chilling. There is no two ways about it. Look at that. They haven't had to do too much. I mean, look at all those Watson fences too. They're just, they're not having to do anything.

04:18:58 Donuts kind of pushed forward, to his credit. Taking a bit of space. Uh, 2-1 Split from SWQ is not under pressure at all. Kill Devil down. They get themselves caught in a big crossfire.

04:19:11 Okay, so now we've got three teams fighting their way into the zone. Wonton Dumpling, Heroes and MDY White. And then it's SWQ just holding them all out. Three shots left there. Jackie Chan on the Kraber. SWQ trying to angle these other teams out. Donut actually playing quite split from his teams right now. Just trying to put pressure and force the other teams into each other rather than risking their god spot.

04:19:38 SWQ actually need to be a bit careful here that they don't get collapsed upon from multiple directions. You can see the forces are pushing in their direction from sort of both sides of the zone and wisely they've grouped back up again. I was going to say Donut needs to be very careful not to get knocked as the isolated player that won in the split of the 1-2 and has done a pretty good job of that. We're back to sort of a 3-0 setup I guess that's the way you want to call it for an SWQ roster and they have done a good job of

04:20:08 Here we go indeed, forcing those teams to fight one another. This will be the easiest win probably SWQ is going to get all season long. I mean, maybe. MDYY? I thought they were actually wading this out really well. And they had the drone in a good spot. The EMP was just ready to pop it. But no, they take a little bit too much damage on the back there. And yep, you're right. SWQ pop off.

04:20:34 Ja, um, nicht viel zu sagen, um das zu sagen, um das zu sagen, für SWQ zu sehen, um zu sehen, wie viele Kills sie bekommen haben. Ich kann es auf die In-Game sehen, ob ich sie finden kann.

04:20:47 7 kills out of that so not a bad shout actually at the end of the day you know they managed to at least find some ways to have an impact on that game probably more so towards the late end than anything else but look you know you can look at that and say well that was an easy game for them they didn't have to do anything they just got fed but reality is like you know when you do get fed you still have to convert that as a you know as a game that you know you still have to play it out right you have to make sure you don't screw it up and they did a good job of that they did play the way they needed to play to win that game and

04:21:16 Ich weiß, dass du nur mit was du hast. Wenn du Lemons hast, kannst du Lemonade machen. Ich weiß, dass sie besser als Lemons sind, in diesem Fall. Ich weiß nicht, was die Alternative wäre in dieser Gespräche.

04:21:25 We love a bit of 11 action. That's right, Bina. But yeah, you know, SWQ sitting about 18th on our overall leaderboard, Elfish. So, you know, they want to make sure that they are still above that top 20. As we have quite a few teams, like we're talking DK Gaming, needing to come up to that top 20. So they need to be careful. And they can't sit idly by. So that is quite a juicy win from SWQ. I guess, you know, what's on Dumpling as well?

04:21:55 Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sind nur 14 Punkte behind. Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sind nur 14 Punkte behind. Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen, Sie sehen.

04:22:24 Ja, es ist ziemlich hart. Die Rotate die sie hatten, war ein ganz kurzeres. Sie waren eher auf die Low-Ground, welches ist ein bisschen ein Problem, weil Rotating Up-Hill ist eher schwieriger. Plus dann, ihr versucht zu Fly-Through-The-Air, das bedeutet, dass ihr nicht so viel Distanz von der Height, das ihr eigentlich habt. Das bedeutet, dass ihr nicht so weit geht. Das bedeutet, dass ihr nicht so weit geht.

04:22:43 And obviously where they ended up landing. I mean, you don't have the ability really to scout where you're going either. You know, when you're on the low ground, you kind of just have to fly and hope that you're going to end up landing somewhere. But with no information, you end up landing on top of a Caustic Barrel or some Caustic Gas. It's like, well, that's GG. So yeah, pretty curse rotate for them. Unfortunately, not much they can do about it. I'm not too concerned about it. See how they go in the next couple of games. There's SWQ right up to the top. 22 points on their first game. So very happy with that one.

04:23:12 Ja, und Kildevill.

04:23:19 Ich glaube, wir sind auf der Bühne der Bühne der Bühne. Wir sind in den Top 4, wir haben nicht zu viel von ihnen gesehen. Aber wir haben einen schönen Start, nicht mit 1st oder 2nd Platz. Aber es ist etwas, es wird sie auf den Bühne ein bisschen. Sie werden das immer ein paar Mal machen, um auch zu remotely kommen, um die Top 20 Quads zu machen, um die Region Finals zu machen. So, wenn sie das Momentum machen können und ein bisschen besser machen können.

04:23:44 We might even see them, you know, get close to that. But again, only time will tell there. Dreamfire coming in about 7. They're still sitting pretty on our overall leaderboard as well. You know, we've talked about them before. They had quite a rough start to the start of our split, but somehow flipped the switch and managed to turn it around. So, you know, they were in a bit of a pickle at the start of that match, Elfish, but they managed to get a full reset, but didn't really, I guess, maximize from there.

04:24:11 End of the day, not a huge concern. It is only game one. We've got plenty of time still left in this lobby to make some magic happen. Five games to go for the evening. We'll crack on into them. I guess we'll keep on rolling. Exactly right. So we're going to take ourselves a short break. As you said, that was only game number one. And we'll see you back for match number two.

04:24:40 Who is going to be the team to challenge the titles of TSM? From a legacy to a dynasty, it is now complete for TSM.

04:25:46 hier heute.

04:26:30 Kannst du das gleiche sagen?

Spekulationen über Teamlandungen und Strategien

04:28:46

04:28:46 We saw no one land at Lava Siphon, Elfish.

04:29:11 Credit, who are our duo, were attempting to take Landslide, but were pushed out by SWQ. I wonder if teams have picked up on this and we might see a random contest at Lava Siphon. I'm kind of hoping so. I'm kind of hoping a few teams have picked up on that and thought, well, that's actually not a bad shout. We might head in that direction. You'd think No Credit might go back, and then one or two other teams might look at that and think, well, we could sneak in there, potentially. It's a pretty good POI. So I'm kind of hoping, I've got my fingers crossed, that two or three teams have the same...

04:29:39 und wir haben einen Konzess, wo es komplett offen ist. Ich denke, das wäre gut. Was ich will sagen, ist, dass ich nicht mit Big Steaks bin. Ich denke, das sollte wahrscheinlich sein in der Longshot Budget sein. Vielleicht, am Ende der Saison gehen wir für ein Big Steak? Das ist gut, so ich will sehen, dass Gnome das auf uns geht.

04:29:55 That's it. Yes, please and thank you. But yeah, we want to see if some teams will go to Lava Siphon. We want some action early on. I felt like I was a little bit slow of a start in that match there, sort of just picking up midway through. Right at the end, we obviously seen, I don't know if it was like five or six teams drop out at that final zone when rotating in. It was just a whole screen full of deaths. So, you know, we're going to have to tell where this ring will pull. But yeah, hopefully we can see some more action right at the start.

04:30:22 Yeah, indeed. I mean, it's going to be hard though, I guess, with the amount of teams that are sort of playing as a duo or even a solo. Like, you've got to feel bad for... Yeah, DNZ, XQ. I'm not sure what's going on there. Why is he playing as a solo today? Either way, obviously he's got to figure things out as a solo. Best case scenario, maybe he's going to be able to rat a couple of points out, but yeah, rough spot to be in. And I was like, I kind of had, because we get to watching the game as well. So I'm watching in the POV.

04:30:50 And I'm just seeing how he's playing the game. It's just rough. Alright, well, I'll cut you off there. Let's see if our dreams come true, Elfish, and see if someone is contesting. We're going to take it away to match number two here on World's Edge. Hopefully we can see what happens at Lava's Hyphen.

04:31:06 Well, I can tell you that we are going to be gifted a contest at least somewhat. We've got MDY and no credit both in Lava Siphon at the moment. Though they haven't actually started firing at each other yet, but something to keep an eye on. Looks like it might not end up being a whole lot actually, but there's two teams in Lava Siphon at least, so I guess you could say it's a contest. Kind of.

04:31:33 Ja, es ist einfach so, dass sie einfach nur Dippen und Rundt sind. Ich meine, wir sehen uns das in Lava Cycling immer wieder, wo ein Team würde einfach nur den Norden von den Lüten gehen, um, und dann geht es um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um

04:31:49 Um, we actually have, I think Fussy is currently chasing D and Zed's, uh, Solo character. Cause Fussy, uh, as the Bloodhound landed on the Survey Pekin at, uh, at Lava Fissure, and then scanned that there was this random Solo just out in the middle of nowhere. You can see the firing happening over there. And there we go. The last bullet in the Rampage clip will take out, um, our poor Solo there, XQ from D and Zed.

04:32:18 Ja, das ist sehr sad. Ich meine, das ist genau da, wie er in der letzten Spiel ist. Und er war einfach nur auf der Zeit, bis Wookiee Bordas wurde aus Lava Fischer und dann kam er und so hoovered auf die Excess Loot. Aber er hat nicht nur das Chance. Und das ist genau das was ich sagte zu Lace, in der Pre-Match. Watching XQ play out that game, in der letzten Spiel, als der Solo, war unglaublich painful. Es war so, wie... Das poor Guy. Du kannst du nichts. Du wirklich kannst du nichts für den ganzen Spiel.

Spielanalyse und Team-Dynamiken auf der World's Edge Karte

04:32:47

04:32:47 But anyway, looks like we're going to be heading out east once again, this time just not quite as far north, but out toward Overlook. It's been a little while since I got to pass an Overlook circle, so I'm looking forward to that. Let's find the Overlook circles are very fun to end. There's a lot of verticality going on there, and there's some fun stuff. Especially if the silos are in towards the end. Yeah, I agree, it can be quite fun. And yeah, it's like it's pulling...

04:33:12 Way past the edge of Overlook, which means that I think that's actually quite likely. Pull hard and gives us a big chance of grabbing one of those, maybe even one of the ones that ends around outside the loot vault as well. Which full engage also sitting there as. We've got the fuse again here for X and Y, so not a mispick, I guess.

04:33:40 Unless they decided to misspick it twice, but uh... Doubt? Doubt? Yeah, givin' it a crack. Alright, come on, get to purple this time. You got one job. Well, still a bit of a ways to go in that department. But we'll keep an eye on it.

04:33:57 Da ist ein paar Evo Harvesters in zwischen dem und der Zone. Ja. Und a Bulki as well. Ja, da geht's. Ja, vielleicht. Ich meine, wenn sie durch Geyser rotate. Ich meine, es ist sogar noch Zeit, um, nach Stax zu gehen. Und es sieht aus wie das ist, was sie vielleicht machen. So, ja, X and Y ist dann, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um

04:34:20 Das Early Upgrade, uh, MTY. Actually seeing a bit of Crypto in this lobby was just kind of fun. I think this is Full Engage. No, SWQ and MXF. Okay, coming into it here over in, uh, the Litton. That isn't really popping off all that much.

04:34:40 Die Fire back and forth inside of that smoke. Gotta be aware of MDY pushing on the back side of this though. SWQ about to have a rude awakening. Huion in the first one up. And there's no way for SWQ to go. The nades are gonna land right on top of them as well. Oh, this is gonna be bad in the MDY Black it is. Who have decided to push into the tunnel now as well. So they're just really getting in the mix, aren't they? They don't want just one team. They don't want SWQ.

04:35:07 They want SWQ AND MXF, and it looks like they're gonna get that!

04:35:11 Oh, I mean, uh, you know, WJX there actually managed to grab an extra kill onto SWQ in the middle. He was on 1 HP, but just clutched that out with the Prowler. He's trying to slow them down with some Caustic Farrells on the backside, but no. Augenstern finishes the job, and they take over this very important tunnel position. I'm gonna say it is Augenstern. No doubt about it. No doubt in my mind.

04:35:41 Hi Stars, love to see it. Either way, um, MDY White, maybe not quite following in the same suit as the sister team MDY Black, have been eliminated in 17th place for this game. So we are seeing quite a bit more shenanigans at the start of this lobby than the previous. A few teams running into one another in that tunnel and on their rotations. It's providing a little bit more entertainment early on in the piece. Woof, okay.

04:36:11 Nice little flutty spray there for Unix. Gets the tac as well to keep the pressure up. T4. Don't manage to grab the other two. That's Nothang and Sato from outside. Looks like they have made it out. And they'll be safe for now because DF are pushing in. Yep.

04:36:36 Es ist einfach schon ein bisschen falsch für T4 da. Lose RxMs.

04:36:44 Dreamfire take the building, but still have a fair ways to go. And they're aware of that as well. Dreamfire know that this is kind of only a staging ground for their next rotation in towards presumably Overlook is where this circle will continue to push. We'll get that information in just a second as the next ring will be available to scan. Goes a bit north actually, so could be Overlook. Won't be the silos really. Could actually be quite similar to our previous circle.

04:37:14 Oh. Aber SWQ ist nicht da zu posten, dieses Mal.

04:37:20 actually great news for those teams coming in from the north AGL very pleased to see that although they don't have the information on that yet bit of a better game so far for no credit though they still haven't been able to get any points on the board and sitting at white armor it's gotta leave a little bit to be desired there's the zone for those of you watching along so we thought maybe it would pull out over overlook kinda hoped actually that would be the case wasn't in the end

04:37:50 Oh, wir haben eine Lifeline! Ja. Final Start! Let's go! Senno ist eigentlich aus.

04:38:05 Die Sticks für Lifeline dieses Mal. Oh Gott, ich hoffe, dass wir den Care Package upgrade haben. Surely, das ist das was wir für. Sie sind jetzt gerade bei AGL. Sie haben mehr Dinge zu beschäftigen, das ist für sicher.

04:38:25 So down for a second. Trying to get some meds off. Trying to get some shields off really. AGL really want to take this fight by the looks of things. Oh no. Just gets caught out in No Man's Land. That's already a good start for AGL. We might not get into a position where that lifeline is really going to get to play too much of this game. Because it's not looking very good for final start at all. AGL are doing a great job of bullying this. Jackie up on the high ground as well. It's got great information. There's no push actually headed in this direction.

04:38:54 Und AGL ist mehr als happy, um zu Bully-Finalstart von der Highground. Aber sie sind nicht zu über-Aggress. Nein, es wurde straight-up cleaned, in der Smoke, sozusagen. Es war ein Blood-O-Hunt, aus dem X-X auf AGL. Ich habe nicht sogar eine Chance zu Fireback, ganz sad. Every time ich sehe ein Level-3-Upgrade... Es ist Kast-A-Curse-Time, ich weiß nicht was zu sagen.

04:39:23 I wonder how our friend on Fuse is doing. They're still okay? Oh, they just hit it! They just grabbed the Evo Harvester as we're watching AGL. They looked a little bit better in the fight than they're looking in this rotation here. XX's, uh...

04:39:44 Unfortunately, not quite as well. As he was a second ago. And ATL is going to realise that this is actually not a good rotation at all, actually. Because that zone is going to shift away from them. They were banking on it going in further towards Overlook. They didn't actually have the information, they didn't have the ring scan. I mean, it's not bad, it's okay. It's not awful, I guess. You're right, it's not awful, but it definitely isn't what you would hope it would be. If you didn't have information further on. Senno's back.

04:40:14 Senno ist es nach. Und sie nicht wissen es, aber diese anderen Teams wissen es. Except für Boogie Boarders, die diese Informationen haben. Aber ja, sie sind in ein KILLER-Spot hier. Final Start. Senno ist ein paar hunderten von grabbingen his Purple. Aber ja, AGL ist noch in ein Problem hier. Oh, das ist ein Fair Fight jetzt. Es ist ein 2v2 mit Full Engage. Ja, no credit, got picked up on the Meanwhile.

04:40:43 Es ist ein schwerer Tag für das Duo. Es ist ein schwerer Woche, aber das ist was es ist. Und AGL... noch etwas Arbeit zu werden. Oh, ich habe einen Moby gefunden. Okay, so AGL wird die Reset. Und Fuse Lovers, einfach nur für den Update, es ist die Knuckle Cluster Speed Upgrade, das JR hat für.

04:41:14 Just, you know, keeping track of our fun little Season 20 tidbits here. AGL have been pushed. They say, no, we've got to take this fight before they get their third back online. So full engage actually go in, but they're getting griefed from afar. VKG do half of the damage there. And essentially, it's just some kills fed over to AGL as a result. Actually, wait, did they actually pick up any of them? Or did they go to... Okay, at least one went to VK Gaming. The kill's important right now for VK Gaming.

04:41:43 Trying to make it into that top 20. The respawn coming through. Doesn't look like anyone's really going to cause too many problems for AGL here. So, right back to fighting fitness. Purple shields, love it. Purple shields are off spawn. Couldn't really ask much more, would you?

04:42:05 Was das von Aja? Was das aus?

04:42:26 Just looking for that armor swap. My god, he destroyed with that Wingman Krout, like the 180?! Wooh! Just turns on a dime and deletes them. That's actually got the DigiShot there, Ewan. Or M.D.Y. So we'll have a little bit of an advantage in this engagement with all of the smokes up. 1v1. Pulling out, trying to dodge the zone. Goes back in.

04:42:54 Oh, confirms it. That was, I mean, that was so beautiful. Unfortunately. Can't make it out. I mean, yeah, he got locked in there. That was, there's not, like, if he had turned his back, MDY Black would have probably shot him in the back. Yeah, kind of had to. Similar thing happening to X and Y right now, as you can see there on Shambles. Just the Fusey left alive. Oh my God. I was about to say, got one syringe off in time. The next tick of the Thermite.

04:43:23 ...Paid to X and Y, and they go out in 12. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Dreamfire, quietly plugging away. 10 points on the board so far for the lobby.

Strategische Spielzüge und Team-Positionierung im späteren Spielverlauf

04:43:37

04:43:37 5th overall, Wontondumpling, nicht so far behind. Wontondumpling sind für eine 6th oder besser. Overall, für dieses Lobby. Für die Standings des Spiels. Although, ich muss noch, wer hat die Head-to-Head zwischen Legends und Wontondumpling. Aber es ist ein moot point, wenn wir noch ein Lobby haben, wenn wir noch ein Lobby haben.

04:44:03 Oh, another pullback! Okay, so we're not getting a simple circle. It will be going in towards... Does that mean the tower's in? In this final circle? I think it might be. Or at least in the pit circle, I should say.

04:44:20 Wow, okay. So Heroes holding one of the Caravans right now. They're bulked in there. They've got Caustic, they don't have Watson. Obviously, you know, I do harp on this about this a bit, but it's quite important because Watson makes the Caravans playable. Caustic, not so much. You stop people getting in there, but you can't stop those nades just ruining your day. Hmm.

04:44:48 Oh, Unix of T4. Wir haben einen Blick mit Beasts-O-The-Hunt mit Beasts-O-The-Hunt, als es... ...faden weg. Es hat nicht so viel Spot, also auf die move. Wir werden in der Zentral Position, in der Zeit, auf die Zone... ...Wantan-Dumpling, auf der anderen Seite. Looking für etwas Dämmer, die Outside ist zu werden, auf die Killfeed zu sehen.

04:45:09 Das wäre genug für Wonton Dumpling. Ich bin froh mit dem Glück. Ich bin froh mit dem Glück. Ich bin froh mit dem Glück. Es ist nur noch die zweite Spiel des Lobbys, so... Ich bin froh mit dem Glück. Und hier ist der nächste Spiel, der in den Fronten wird. Ich bin froh mit dem... Ich bin froh mit dem Glück. Ich bin froh mit dem Glück. Ich bin froh mit dem Glück.

04:45:37 Für die Keepen Track der Perks, Senno hat den Supply Drop Perk und er ist 87% für die nächste Care Package. Ich glaube, ich glaube, er hat ihn noch nicht. Ich glaube, er wird es noch nicht. Ich glaube, er wird es noch nicht. Sie werden es definitiv werden. Sie sind einfach hinter einem Rock für den Moment. Oh, sie sind da. Oh mein Gott, wirklich? An 94%? Ja, sie sind tatsächlich in der Zeit. Sie können einfach ein Wingman in den nächsten 10 Minuten. Oh, sorry, 10 Sekunden.

04:46:07 Es ist ein Duo auf der anderen Seite der Engagement, so... Ja, sie sind glücklich. Und dann ist der K-Package direkt auf. Oh, der Third Party kommt in die andere Richtung. Sie müssen ein bisschen bemerksam hier sein. Oh, no, Boogie Board ist in der Back-Side, als auch. Sie haben gesagt, oh, hey, du hast uns eine Kraber, danke. Seems gut. Seems gut, indeed. Senno ist es zu versuchen, zu versuchen, eine Bat zu versuchen. Looks wie ich kann es aus. Was ist in der K-Package? Ich habe nicht gesehen.

04:46:34 Uh, neither of them have a Care Package Weapon at the moment, so I don't know. Oh, it's a bow. It's a bow. Wow. Disappointing. I love the bow. No Wingman, no Kraber, no either. That's probably the worst of the four choices. The bow with the 3x, I mean, you love to see it, really. I mean, if you're up there on the tower right now, it wouldn't be so bad. Okay, Senno has picked it up. He's picked it up and he's already popping off.

04:47:04 Anyway, they're going to be pushing Selka and Senno through the side of the zone, just following the circle around. Picking up some kills on the way through, or at least attempting to. Warmonster Firebird into it as well. A little bit of a slower couple of weeks for Warmonster Firebird, but here's where things could pick up a little bit. Azu should just be resable, but we're going to be having to worry about the zone first, so some fisticuffs.

04:47:32 Oh my god. The final circle is finishing right next to the tower, like almost underneath it. So AGL are going to be able to play up there for the longest time. You can see they've got a little intruder below them. That is T4, just a single man left alive on the Bangalore. And then we've got VK Gaming sitting inside their building.

04:48:03 Sie haben das R.V. in der Mitte der Zone. Der Boogie Boarder muss in ein bisschen später sein. Und dann haben wir das Warmblust Firebird. Wir sind hier von der Westen.

04:48:23 No one wants to make the first move, but there's VK Gaming at the moment that are sort of doing the most probing. As I say it though, one monster Firebird on the move as well. They've decided now it's time to cross. EMP's gonna go off right underneath the tower. Hero's eliminated in the meanwhile, but lots to be spoken about around this tower shall fly. With the R99. Good tracking, doesn't quite manage to get the knock initially, but I'm gonna try to follow off.

04:48:50 Still not having much success in DK Gaming. Falling. There's so much damage going down, but only now has he been able to find a knock, and I'm just not sure that's going to come through quickly enough. Holding on, the bat is secured. It's really all up to these caustics. There's so many traps, ultimates going off underneath the tower, because essentially everyone, apart from AGL, is just fighting for that position underneath. There's traps everywhere.

04:49:18 Almost a Firebird. Azu is the only one still left alive. I think he's got the Gold Knock as well though. So he may try and get the res off. Kon from T4 somehow made his way out of this. It is still okay. And then we've got Boogie Forters who actually just pulled off a last minute respawn. Racky coming in. There's a couple of death boxes over there as well that he can...

04:49:43 So I'm sure he's going to be able to find himself a decent gun in the mix as well. Like there's still three teams that are fighting. So actually boogie boarders have time to make this reset kind of happen unless AGL were to try and send them, which they obviously wouldn't. Yeah, but they've got great sightlines on them and AGL still have lots of ammo. Actually, that was the one thing I was worried about. You know, they've been up on this tower for a little while. Maybe it's, uh, maybe they're running a bit dry, but no hundreds of bullets ready to just...

04:50:09 Absolutely destroy any teams below. That and the Bangalore Ultimate. AGL mopped them up. Azu is going to get second place. But that's a big win there from AGL. Yeah, solid stuff from them. 13 kills on that victory. AGL getting the job done. Ended up being another one in the same vein as SWQ. Pretty straightforward, but you reap what you sow. And they'll be happy with it for sure.

04:50:38 Highground, so important, we've seen that. It's been the theme essentially for Game 1 and Game 2 here in our second series, Lex. Yeah, huge game from AGL there. You know, they had it a little bit tough getting a teammate knocked out and then having to respawn right at the other side of Overlook there and still collecting a couple of kills along the way and then solidifying that height. It was just like shooting fish in a barrel genome. It was insane. They really pulled it together in that entire match.

04:51:07 Das ist schon so gut. Ich habe schon vergessen, dass das das Team war, weil sie in so einem Schambles waren, um, zu Beginn. Aber dann all of a sudden, wenn sie auf das Tower getrennt haben, ist... ...at das Punkt... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...

04:51:25 Unfortunate that he didn't get rewarded towards the end. Yeah, he had to make a bit of a tough choice there. He was either running from Zone 3 or collect the kill and placement points and risk being eliminated from MDY Black.

04:51:38 Um, so, you know, I reckon made a choice, um, you know, quite well for their team. Um, you know, VK Gaming here seeing, uh, Daokai just absolutely dominate as a solo caustic underneath that height. Um, you know, again, it wasn't enough having AGL just watching all of this unfold.

Analyse der Teamleistungen und strategische Entscheidungen

04:51:56

04:51:56 Ja, und ein bisschen besser von Boogie Boarders als auch, Genome, um, sie hat ein bisschen an easier Rotate als Game.

04:52:16 I found themselves sort of camping in the caravan position for a little while there. You know, then getting the respawn on Raggy. But of course, you know, with AGL on top, that's not enough. Speaking of AGL on top, taking out the first, their 14 kill points. And I'm pretty certain they got most of those at the end. Yeah, definitely a lot coming their way. Warmaster Firebird. Now up in third place, making that push that we were hoping for in order to make their way.

04:52:44 ...to next week, to the Regional Finals. But there's plenty of other teams in here who would like that berth too. So, you know, T4, Kill Devil, Final Start, VK Gaming, all trying to make that same run and give themselves a chance to make it to land. That's it. We have Warmonster Firebird currently in 20th place with VK Gaming just one point behind on the overall...

04:53:07 So, you know, those two teams are going to be battling it out. But it looks like War Monster Firebird is doing just a little bit better at this present time. But you know what? VK Gaming can bring it back. But, you know, they've had such a big day today. It is their eighth match of the day. So you can only feel the fatigue. Yeah, I'm sure they're going to feel it. I know we're feeling it too. So we're going to take ourselves a short little break. That was just our second match on World's Edge. We'll come and see you for our third match. But we'll see you after the break.

04:57:57 Oh, I was so excited.

04:58:23 you know, the bow came through, they, like, you know, the lifeline went down, then got purple, then finally managed to get the ult online and be there, you know, be able to bring out that guaranteed care package weapon, right? Because you definitely get one in the care pack, you just can't control which one it's going to be. So, yeah, after that, unfortunately the bow came out, I was kind of hoping, you know, you probably want the Kraber out of it, maybe the wingman, Eva's probably good, but third choice, bow is like,

04:58:52 I don't know, you may as well be running a Sentinel. That's it. You know, she's gone through many a changes and again, you know, this is something that, you know, we haven't seen in comp for, I don't think ever. I don't remember ever seeing a lifeline in comp unless we had the shields, right?

04:59:06 Wenn sie die Shields hatte, das war es wahrscheinlich. Aber zu sehen, dass sie sie zurückgezogen haben und flouriert war, war sehr gut zu sehen. Aber ich weiß nicht, ob sie sich das wieder spielen können. Es ist ein bisschen tricky zu haben, dass das Charakter in und in so einer Open-Playing-Führung ist, weil sie die Rez auf jemanden in der Open sind. Sie sind einfach squischt, in a sense. Ja, da geht es. So, ihr könnt sehen, was sie...

04:59:30 Upgrades are for Lifeline. I mean, honestly, either of the level 2 ones, you know, can help, can be good. Um, for level 3 in pro play? Honestly, I think both can be good as well, but I think you will see Giftwrapped, um, be a lot more, uh, impact.

04:59:48 Ich denke, es gibt viele Situationen, in Pro-Play, wo du get knocked hast, und die anderen Teams sind worried, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um andere Teams zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden, um zu beenden.

05:00:15 Yeah, so it's been kind of nice. You know, we touched on boogie boarders. Generally, they can sort of pop off with the Mirage of Trois pull, but, you know, they've been trekking all their way, all the way over to Overlook Genome. So, you know, they had to make these large sort of, I guess, rotates in that sense. I feel like we've had a couple of Overlook pulls just in the last couple of matches. So hopefully we see something on the other side of the map to give a little bit of a chance to these teams that have to make that journey.

05:00:41 Ja, ja. Ich meine, wir hatten eine Woche, wo es zwei Stagingen gibt, ich glaube. So, wenn du es Woche zu Woche gibt, ich denke, dass Leute sich vielleicht ein paar Pattern sehen, als du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du, wenn du...

05:01:05 Das ist Match 3, unser Last Match auf World's Edge.

05:01:34 Yes it is, 4 to go, including this match right here. And as far as Lava Siphon is concerned, I believe it will be MDY. They're going to hold on to that and actually seeing no credit move over toward Landslide this time around. Maybe we'll call them no contest this time. They have moved away from Lava Siphon and given that one over to MDY.

05:02:01 So, es ist eigentlich ein bisschen ein Handshake Agreement, in der 3rd und finalen Rund der Welt's Edge, dass keine Tests passieren können. Und sogar XQ, btw, hat sich von seinem Lava Fissure ausgesucht, nachdem wie er in den letzten Spielen hatte, was er hatte in den letzten Spielen. Ja, es ist... Ich habe einfach nur auf ihn gezwungen. Er hat bereits 10 Sekunden von ihm gezwungen gemacht. Er spielt Valkyrie, ich glaube, er war einfach nur für...

05:02:27 Ja, wirklich, uh, wirklich aus der Weg rat spot. Ja. Just testin' some stuff out. I mean, what else do you really have to do as a solo? Exactly. I dunno. Fly around. Grab some Evo Harvesters, maybe. I dunno. Yeah, it's a bit tough, isn't it? Okay, look at those Legend picks up there. Caustic up to 75% alongside Bloodhound. And then, bang, even up at 80%. But, um...

05:02:55 Let me just have a look. I mean, one, two, three. Yeah, okay, so every team that's not running Bang is not a full team. Oh, no, actually, no, Heroes. Heroes are running Valkyrie Caustic Bloodhound. Interesting, okay. So we've got one team that I would, you know, consider to be a proper team that, you know, is not running the Bloodhound. Sorry, the Bangalore.

05:03:25 Have a look at that, though. We are getting pretty much three zones that are almost exactly the same. Maybe this one will pull back into Fragment. You never know. Probably not. Maybe. Probably not. Oh, my word. I'm scared. Yeah, a little bit. Well, no credit R on their way.

Taktische Manöver und Team-Kämpfe in den finalen Runden

05:03:49

05:03:49 The loot is looking pretty sparse. Okay, Peacekeeper. They got an ult Excel. So, you know, that's gonna give them... They've scanned the ring. They've got the Skyward Diver ready to go. So, you know, look, they're playing the... Playing their out, I guess you could say. Trying to use some, you know, some poker terminology there, like...

05:04:08 They're really just trying to grab the blue and then just yeet it into zone. And hopefully they can find a spot that the Caustic will keep them safe. But these teams are a little less than safe. SWQ coming into MDY Black. Oh, taking some backshots there from the L-Star. But they're right on a care package, actually. So this might be a nice little pickup here for MDY Black.

05:04:38 Oh, ich habe es einfach mal gesehen. Ich hoffe, dass ich noch ein paar Shenanigans im Spiel wiederholfen kann, wenn der letzte Spiel ist. Vielleicht nicht von MDY.

05:05:01 Hahahaha! Peekaboo! It's like a big game of hide-and-seek, isn't it? Fortunately, it's not an easy game to play hide-and-seek in when there's about every team having a Bloodhound running around. What's the White Raven telling me today?

05:05:22 Uh, don't play solo. Good cons from the White Raven. Yeah. Don't play solo. How's that? Was that better? Senno. Okay, off the lifeline, sadly. Maybe sensibly, though. Back onto the Watson.

05:05:48 Ich bin glücklich, dass sie uns ein bisschen was zu cheer für sind. Aber sie sind ein paar Potshots von Heroes auf dem Moment. Sie haben Zone Info, also ich bin nicht sicher, warum sie das so hart sind, mit Heroes. Und wenn sie es nicht genug sind? Ja, weil sie können. Okay. Sie können und sie wollen, und sie werden weitergehen. W-Key ist bei TreeCleaner. Auf Wiedersehen für noch 10 Sekunden oder so.

05:06:14 Oh! ...and has found the mark. So, this is definitely not looking good if you're heroes. He's looking to extend that ultimate as well. Doesn't quite make it, but the scan reveals where Lahim is going. Has managed to slide down and get some health off, though, and actually finds a really good angle. Valk ults behind the crane, where, like, you can't get shot for the first two-thirds of the ascent. That's actually pretty smart.

05:06:41 What does this mean for Kissands, though? He's gone running up to the north and inside the Train Tons. He's been chased by Killdevil. It's a big balloon. They might take him out. Oh, they do! Right at the tippy top. That's unfortunate. It's a long balloon. Yeah. But hey, he's doing makeup on that. It's something.

05:07:06 Not really much to write home about there, unfortunately for heroes, though. They just get booked. They get chased. Might be able to do a circle and grab the banners. It's possible. Potentially. Potentially. Recovery mission. Yeah, if only... The devil's hanging around. If only Strafing Flame had revealed these secrets in the interview about resets, maybe, maybe heroes could have listened to that and pulled this off, but...

05:07:37 Not to me Warmonster, Firebird, uh, having a look as well So far, not really seeing too much, couple of shots Going a straight Uh, they're more interested in making their rotation happen now than actually chasing and looking for more kills Here we go, a lot of ground to cover

05:08:08 So loot first. Sitting in 3rd spot for the moment is a good chance for them to solidify that top 20 position that they currently have.

05:08:23 Und Sentinel, okay. Sentinel, 30-30. Oh, habe ich Turbo. Okay, decent loot there. Looking back up on the tower that won the last game for AGL. It's just one of the VKG members. They're actually split-holding quite a bit. If they get caught off, this could be rough.

05:08:54 Final start. Gonna get that Alternator Pylon down, and, uh, I'm not sure it's gonna go the distance, unfortunately. Sen-oh! Holding on, though! Could this be the angle? Not quite. Final start. Do get eliminated. Wookieboarders. Gonna be breathing a cyber relief there, thanks to Fussy clutching it out.

05:09:14 Der Revives will come through. Oh no, Kill Devil on the hunt though. The party is indeed in effect. Panda's done. Racky also taken out. And Fussy might even get finished off by the lava here. Just makes it down below. I'm not sure they've realised where he's gone actually. But I would have thought the Bloodhound... No, the Bloodhound scan misses him? Really? Okay. I guess they didn't angle it down far enough.

05:09:43 To get him in the uh, the cone? There's no way, how have they not seen that? I mean you can see like the footsteps and stuff as well, right? Like... Come on Balan. No footsteps if you just send it off the building. There's like a jump down animation. Yeah, I know. Oh, he's gotten out. Oh, and buddy. Oh, someone needs to upgrade their tracking skills, I think.

05:10:16 Du bist ja auch manchmal. Anyway, Lonton Dumpling. Hiding away inside this caravan. While the world falls apart around outside of them. Oh, they're okay. Quite a few teams looking okay. Pretty set up. Probably getting pretty used to playing this zone at this point in the evening. Third time on the trot. You've got your rotations down pat. Know where you want to end up. At least hopefully by this stage you do.

05:10:44 Does anyone actually have ring info? Yeah, Tom Young-Kung. Oh, that's... The beacon that sits at Overlook is often a good one because it's often just outside the circle and you can just duck in and out and grab it. So that'll help those guys. They know they can stay put for the moment.

05:11:06 Maybe even the other teams around can draw some sort of inference from that, VK Gaming. Keeping an eye on Tommy Hong Kong as well as outside. Well SWQ here haven't really been able to improve on their first game. They didn't get many points or any, I think, even out of the previous game. I think they finished game one on 22. It's another good opportunity for them to go one better. Big damage, they know they've got that crack. Arctars are going to get tossed on in as well, and some of those are connecting. Oh!

05:11:35 Donut! Absolutely turns his opponent into a Donut. Full of holes. At least one big one, hopefully. Maybe more than that. And that is Warmonster Firebird taken out very easily by SWQ. So there's a couple more points on the board, at least. I mean, Azu got one kill. Otherwise, yeah, it would have been a Donut game for Warmonster Firebird. Going out in 16th spot. No placement points for them.

05:12:02 Okay, it's looking like a hell of a similar circle. Mhm. It could be pulling back to the tower. Run it back. HL are absolutely nowhere near that tower this time around, though, so it will be a difficult result, you can imagine. Freaking and entering! This is a crime.

05:12:29 Das ist nicht so wichtig, apparently. VK Gaming sind auf den Weg, auch zu checken, die Caravan und zu holen. Ich meine, VK Gaming sind auf 15. Sie sind auf 15. Sie sind auf 15. Sie sind die Team der Oval-Oval. Sie haben insgesamt drei Circles in ein Ruh. Das ist nicht ein guter Conversion.

05:12:56 Certainly not. Especially when they're a team that's fighting for their life basically in this split. If they don't make it into the top 20, then they don't come back next week. They're in a great position to do so, but... Maybe they're just not quite doing enough in this lobby so far. At least not to make it a sure thing.

05:13:21 Angel are rotating their way in now, but far later than what they did in the previous game. Oh, they're actually gonna land on Beyond?

05:13:31 Ich dachte für einen Moment, aber jetzt haben sie vielleicht ein bisschen Fehler gemacht, weil sie ein bisschen wegzunehmen ist, weil sie ein bisschen wegzunehmen ist, weil sie ein bisschen wegzunehmen sind. T4 auf der BOTTOM-SIDE der Hill ist auch. Sie haben auch einen Angle auf dem. Sie müssen wissen, dass sie das. T4 ist auch, um die Team in fronten, ein bisschen mehr zu sagen. So, AGL ist okay für den Moment. M-D-Y Black, so...

05:14:02 ... und ... und ... und ...

05:14:25 ...Dreamfire. Das ist ein Problem, aber sie haben sich nicht zu dislodieren, dass sie vollen Engage haben, das wird ihnen geben. Die Potenzialde Partei kommen durch von AGL, und ... ... das hat sich zu haben, zumindest für den Moment. ...Dreamfire haben sich selbst hinter den Strock. Sie haben wirklich nur einen kleinen Wiggler-Room zu arbeiten, aber es ist genug.

05:14:49 Es ist eigentlich verrückt, wie lange du Spendstattdodging Bang-Ult in ein Professionals-Gamer-Apex. Da sind so viele Bangal-Ult. Hide-and-seek ist, wie, halte der Spiel.

05:15:23 Back in Overlook, lots of teams still getting into it. Tommy Uncum trying to share this building with SWQ, who have set up with the Watson underneath. Then of course... Oh my god, it has. It's pulled back again, basically to the tower. So... It's wonton dumplings that are up top, and they've got a Kraver as well. Oh! Oh my god, so they got the Kraver-Bow combo. Imagine if you're Jojo right now.

Endspielstrategien und Triumph von Wonton Dumpling

05:15:48

05:15:48 Not feeling, just having a good time. Good time at the top there for a wonton dumpling.

05:15:57 The question though for the tower generally is how early can you take it? Because there is a point where you take it, it's too early and you get angled out, people are innating you, they're getting shots on you and you just waste all of your bats and everything too early on. You see right here, MXF having good shots. The timing that AGL took it last game was fantastic and allowed them to play a really strong endgame, but...

05:16:24 Will it be the same this time from Wonders on something? Okay, the final circle is like 10 meters away from where the last one was. It's not exactly the same, but it's like just slightly to the left of the tower this time. That's a rough fight for MDY Black. There was nowhere to go. Down the bottom of the hill. Wonders out there as well. And X and Y getting shot in the back, which is not going to be fun for them, because they thought they were on for a free kill here into the Crane Tons, but...

05:16:52 Und das wird eigentlich der Grave auch sein, weil ich denke, dass sie sich in der Grave geteilt werden können. Outside ist es ein bisschen messierig. Und Outside ist es eigentlich die Team, die die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die.

05:17:19 We're pretty good for Monson Dumpling now at the top of the tower. Well, I mean, there's not that many other teams left, right? We've got four squads left alive. Round five hasn't even closed. What is going on in this game? What's going on in this lobby, really? Indeed. Two reloadable, one reloadable now in the cradle, but five shots total. Okay, SWQ, they're pulling up on top of the house.

05:17:46 Just looking for some angles, trying to see if they can get some shots onto Wonton Dumpling. Up on the tower. Hilldevil, of course, after that big loot, can start making their way back up. Yeah, that's MXF. I just pull off a res over there. Good shot.

05:18:10 Got some smoke here! Wait, I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see any smoke. Well, Wons and Dumpling are having a grand old time at the top of the tower at the moment. Wild Devil's not doing too bad for themselves either. They're actually third in this lobby, which is pretty solid considering where they're sitting for the season overall. SWQ playing underneath the tower.

05:18:36 And then it's MXF, the other team, that is sitting inside of the caravan at the moment. All teams kind of just waiting for that zone to push in. Onton Dumbling will inevitably have to come off the top of the tower, which could become problematic at this point in the game. It's going to be so late in the game, because the circle, it's not in the middle, right? It's actually quite close to where the tower is. So their side of the circle will actually push lower. And yeah, I think they're going to have every chance to take out at least MXF and Kill Devil.

05:19:06 Um, but SWQ, they have set up underneath them. They can't be nated out, they've got a pylon there. What are you even supposed to do? When you're up the top there, you can't see anything anyway, so... Patience to virtue in this game, that's for sure.

05:19:28 Das ist eigentlich nicht so bad, es gibt es einen Angeln auf SWQ.

05:19:38 Oh, and it's getting tossed in. Not really connecting for any damage just yet. Killdevil are trying to be proactive. Often though, when you're the first team to decide to do something, you end up being the focus of fire. So they do have to be a little careful that they don't over-aggress here. Wraber's still in the mix, but smoke's causing problems as ever. Also hard to find an angle with the bow, though there is at least a connection in there.

05:20:03 Bang ult is going out now. Knaves going up to the top of the tower as well. Killdevil. Bowling. He's used up all the ammo. So he's only the wingman. Not really in play. Just that bolt left for him. The WQ do get eliminated in fourth place. In their place. Killdevil will take control underneath the tower.

05:20:25 MxF versuchen nicht zu bewegen, wenn sie in der Karavan gehen können. Aber wenn sie das Schöpfen haben, werden sie versuchen zu arbeiten. Und sie haben sich ein paar Mitglieder zu tun. Wonton Dumpling entscheiden, dass es jetzt die Zeit zu gehen. Sie sind aus der Tower. Killed Devil Taken, zwei Squats remaining. Und es war immer immer Wonton Dumpling. Von der Topf der Tower, die Kings nehmen ihre Victory.

05:20:49 Es ist unglaublich, dass wir drei Games auf World's Edge hatten. Und man könnte sich die Win-Up sehr gut auswählen, von fünf Minuten vor dem Ende des Spiels.

05:21:00 Happens, happens, but again, like we said, you've got to take what you can get, right? And when the zone feeds you, you've got to run away with some points, and that's exactly what WontOnDumbling have been able to do there, which is a great sign for them, given, again, we talked about them focusing on trying to take first in the overall standings of the season, and a win like that is going to go a long way in doing so. Yeah, exactly right. You know, we were touching on that they only need 14 series points to be...

05:21:24 Ich glaube, ich habe die Zone ein bisschen Kastis-Curse, Elfisch. Ich habe es in der gleichen Richtung. Es ist ein bisschen...

05:21:45 Es ist eine große Spiel, von Wonson. Ich war es nicht so, dass SWQ wieder eine winn für sich, weil es so detrimental ist für sie. Sie sind über 18 auf den Ständigen, also haben sie sich in die Top 20 in die Region Finale gewonnen. Aber sie sind sehr gut in das Spiel, Elkisch.

05:22:11 Ja, definitiv. Ich meine, es ist ein bisschen wie ein Pass to Curse. Ich hoffe, wir werden nicht die gleiche Sache für Stormpoint. Wir müssen uns mit unseren Fingern zusammenziehen. Es muss auch ein guter Spiel zu spielen, als Wonton Dumpling. Ich kann nicht denken, dass es etwas, was ich lieber zu machen, als die Krabber auf dem Tower und die Räder auf den Tauern. Und so viele Möglichkeiten mit ihm. Und viele Connections waren. Es war sehr gut, sehr gut zu sehen. Es war sehr gut, sehr gut zu sehen. Es war sehr gut bei Wonton Dumpling, als wir uns darüber gesprochen haben. Sie leften es so late, als sie wirklich brauchten.

05:22:41 In the end, it kind of ended up being a pretty easy finish for them. Bloodhound on top of all those smokes makes for a bit of a free farm, so well done in the end, and Wonton Dumpling go rocketing up the standings into first place. AGL just behind them, and SWQ just behind that, so it is still pretty competitive at the halfway point of Groups B and C.

Herausragende Leistungen und bevorstehende Herausforderungen

05:23:01

05:23:01 Let's see, can we talk about AGL and those killpoints? We had a couple of large killpoint games. I think Legends Gaming had 22, but 17 for AGL is absolutely exceptional. We haven't really touched too much on AGL in the first couple of weeks, but I don't know what they're doing, Elfish, but they're turning it around in these last couple of matches.

05:23:24 Ja, definitiv. Ich meine, sie haben immer ein Team, das ist ziemlich solid. Sie haben ein paar, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh, äh

05:23:52 Given their position in 15th, they're looking pretty solid to make it through to next week. I don't imagine that we're going to see them drop out of the top 20. So they're kind of just upholding their end of the bargain.

05:24:02 Ja, ich glaube, es war auch ein sehr schönes Spiel von Warmonster Firebird. Ich glaube, es war über 5th von Memory. Es sind sie und VK Gaming just battling es aus für die Position. Warmonster Firebird ist auf 20. Und die VK Gaming ist auf 21. Aber es sieht aus wie Warmonster Firebird ist auf 21. Aber es sieht aus wie Warmonster Firebird ist in die ersten drei Matches. So es ist sie zu halten, dass sie das Position als sie Knockout, als es Overlooked Entertainment.

05:24:31 who had their final matches in the last group. So, you know, that sort of slides them up to that position. But, you know, we've still got another three matches to go. We're going to be heading over to Storm Point shortly. It's going to be our last three matches of our group standings, Elfish. It just can't be real. We have regional finals next week. Like, a lot is on the line. There's the prize pool for them as well. I just want to express to you guys, you know, that these last three matches could be make or break for a lot of our teams.

05:25:00 Ja, potenziell. Ich meine, ich sage Ihnen, es gibt noch ein paar Spiele zu sehen, weil das Matchpoint-Format kann aufhören, manchmal. Wir werden natürlich zu das, wenn wir zu das kommen. Aber ja, wir müssen uns aufhören. Genau, genau. All right, wir werden uns wiederholfen. Und wir sehen uns bald auf Stormpoint.

05:28:45 Welcome back and thank you for joining us once again. It's been one hell of a day and for our teams where there is so much on the line, obviously being a spot in the regional finals or the massive prize pool that we now have for our Apex South region, you know, you won't see Elfish, any team slowing down as we head into the final three matches of our groups B versus C. Yeah, hopefully not. I mean, hopefully we actually see things kind of speeding up a little bit because some of those games...

Analyse der Stormpoint-Map und Teamstrategien

05:29:10

05:29:10 Es wurde ein bisschen repetiert, eigentlich, auf Worlds-Edge. Wir sahen ein sehr ähnliches Final-Zones. Ja, ein bisschen langer Start im ersten Spiel. Es war wirklich ein bisschen langer Zeit. Aber als wir in die Zeit haben, haben wir angefangen, haben wir ein bisschen besser gemacht. Obviamente interessiert zu sehen, was die Duos und die Solos sind hier auf Stormpoint. Obwohl es nicht so gut geht für Dnz oder für NoCredit heute.

05:29:34 Das manchmal ist es auch was es ist. Aber ja, es ist kind of rough, dass das die finalen Spiel oder die finalen Spiele sind. Und sie sind einfach einfach nur Pointless. Ja, ich weiß es, dass es die Storm Point map ist. Es gibt noch ein paar Rat Spots, also ich hoffe, die D&D Team kann einen von diesen finden finden. Und sie können sich selbst ein, ich glaube, Placement Points geben, die immer noch viel in diesen sorts of competitions.

05:29:59 We've got a duo there as well that sort of didn't really get to take their POY there on World's Edge, which made room for a lot of teams to sort of take that. We probably won't see that too much on Stormpoint being more POYs and sort of a spread out sort of map. So hopefully we're going to get a little bit of action right at the start, but we'll take a look at the beacon for our Stormpoint map, Bs versus Cs. Elfish, why don't you take it away?

05:30:26 Tell us a little bit about their landing spots. Yeah, I mean, again, you can see actually here there's no contest, at least in theory. I'm not sure whether or not things are going to change up for no credit, if they're going to be able to hold on to that position in the center of the zone or in the center of the map, I should say, or if they're going to get pushed away by any of the teams. But it doesn't really seem like there's going to be too much early on in the game, at least happening. Same can maybe be said for D&Z as to whether or not they...

05:30:53 Ja, und ich denke, wir werden es zum Start des Matches starten. Wir haben ein schönes Blick über den Top der Elfisch, so wir sehen uns alle actionen. Ja, wir werden sehen, wie alles funktioniert hier. Wir werden jetzt hier auf Stormpoint-MXF landen. Wir werden jetzt aus dem Milch landen.

05:31:22 Not going to get the mill, that is the... Residency, I suppose, of Dreamfire?

05:31:31 Ja, of course, they have been there for quite some time. But, you know, it's changed, right? Everything's changed now. The way you play Mill has changed. Actually, I wouldn't say the way you play Mill has changed, but it has slowed it down a little bit. Because the Prowlers nearby, you oftentimes will want to do that. And also, the spots that the Evo Harvesters spawn are also quite variable. And that makes a big difference on where you have to...

05:32:00 It's a path through with your trident. But yeah, you know, it's changed for so many of these teams now. You can see, obviously, MDY Black. They need to go do the spiders down the bottom. It's a massive spider cave down the bottom of the waterfall. And it's more important than ever. MDY Black are going to get a bit of a wriggle on.

05:32:31 They got some moving and shaking to do. Not the furthest of rotates for them, of course, but still. This is one of those kinds of zones where if you can be one of the first teams into Down Beast, you can set yourself up really nicely and potentially get a bit of a free game. And again, you know, we've kind of been a little bit bamboozled by the zone shift so far today, so there's no guarantee necessarily this is going to continue to go over toward Down Beast, but, you know, General can...

05:33:01 General Wisdom would say that it should. I mean, there isn't, but Storm Point Zones are generally more predictable, right? More, you know, easier to read, edge of the map, circles touching. Generally, this will end towards, you know, at least the backside of Down Beast, or at least somewhere in Down Beast, but you would expect it to actually be the backside. So teams like AGL pulling up there already. Ooh, we've got a Gibraltar! Gibraltar pick! Gibraltar alert! Ooh, what? Yeah, on AGL.

Taktische Manöver und Team-Dynamiken in Down Beast

05:33:30

05:33:30 Gibraltar, Bangalore, Caustic. Love it. And behind them, playing the meta composition, is Dreamfire, who have already pulled up. So a good spot for them. Obviously Mill priority rotates this, go straight past an Evo Harvester as well, so that was a good one. For Dreamfire to make it in there with some comfortable blues, just like full engage.

05:33:54 They landed nice and early got the double beacon scan off reminder that that is still in the game right now gives you 400 evo if you can do it you should But maybe gone by the time we get to regional finals you may only be able to scan the ring once for points points at the start of the game Well war monster firebird early on the rotate gonna set themselves up behind the down to beast

05:34:19 Not exactly a premium position, at least not at the moment, but could be later on in the piece. The thing I do worry about is how much are they really going to be able to play the game from this kind of a spot, or are they going to be sucking the game for quite a while now. Given the fact that there are a few other teams around, though, I'm sure they're going to be able to get their chip damage out and it'll be worth on those Evos, but I mean, in the case of Azu, for example, it's 1,032 damage you have to get.

05:34:47 So, ein bisschen Weiss-Off, für den Moment. Oof. Ist das die Hammer-Points gegangen, da? Ich glaube, es hat sich nicht gemacht. Komm, wir sind die Mo-Zam, wir können uns.

05:35:08 I swear I heard some powerpoints making their way over towards Dreamfire just there. But yeah, look, obviously a lot of teams here now predicting this zone in Down Beast. So they will pull up and start taking position in some of those buildings. Oh my god! What am I supposed to be getting? Not sent, actually. They did get caustic altered, though.

05:35:35 Und downed, wow, okay. Dreamfire may actually push this, but we're gonna have a look down here in Cenote Caves. A couple of teams floating around in Cenote, but X and Y look like they're on their way out. Little pick-up in the Uber, and off we go.

05:36:01 Makes a liar. Pretty safe on this rotate. There's not a lot happening out on the western side of the map at the moment. As they get to the mill, they might run into a bit of trouble. Although, this rock appears to be giving them a bit of a problem. Oh my goodness. What? Is this like cave diving?

05:36:18 Das gibt mir claustrophobisch. Stop! Du kannst dich durch den tiniest spot in den Caves. No way. Catch me never. I like rocks. I like climbing rocks. I just don't want to climb rocks while there's another rock like two centimeters away from my face. You know what I mean? Yeah. Like, that's not my jam. I have too many of those horror...

05:36:47 Die Geschwisterung ist ein bisschen problematisch, denn das ist hier die Heroes haben sich um Shop gespielt.

05:37:03 Wonson Dumpling ist also da. Und, luckily für VK Gaming, sie gehört all diese Shenanigans. Und so haben sie gescheitert aus dem Mill, stattdessen zu gehen. Weil Wonson Dumpling, sie eigentlich wollen einen Scan jetzt. Sie sind auf der Ring-Console an der Mill. Das ist deshalb so, dass sie hier in diesem Moment sind. Aber, sie sind hier auf jeden Fall. Ja, Heroes in den Norden, VK Gaming hinter dem. So, es ist nicht wirklich safe.

05:37:28 Unironically, one of the reasons why I've been enjoying playing Rampart in Season 20 is because if you want to just pop off a quick ring scan, you can just put up some amp cover and hide behind it to kind of cover you for 5 or 10 seconds while you grab those scans. But obviously it's a little more risky here in Pro League and definitely more risky for the Core Stick. I mean, you can check up a barrel, it helps you a little bit, but... Wait, what about my boy Gibby, you know? Ever heard of him?

05:37:56 By the way, we haven't mentioned this, but XQ's actually played Pathfinder this game, too. So... As the solo, he's just decided... He was on Valve. He's decided, you know, the Valve's not working. Pathfinder, I might be able to escape a little bit easier. I don't know. I don't know what the methodology is, but... I guess you gotta do what you gotta do when you're a solo, and it is what it is. MXF have gone back to the Newcastle as well on this map, so that's kind of cool to see. They have. Not only that, we've got MadMaggie for SWQ.

05:38:24 And we've also got Horizon coming out from Tom Young-Kung. So, yeah, Stormpoint on BBC actually giving us lots of goodies. We didn't see quite as much fun come out, I feel, in our first series today. This has been a fun one. And, I mean, we actually saw quite a bit of Pathfinder. I think it was APAC North were picking him a little more regularly. And, I mean, gosh, I wish, you know...

05:38:52 Es wäre toll, zu interviewen eines dieser Teams zu sehen. Obviamente, wenn du Theorycrafter hast, ist das Option, dass man auch Rink-Console und Survey-Beacons kann. Und einfach zu wählen, auf jeden Fall zu wählen. Depending auf welcher Rotation, welcher Partei ist, wie.

05:39:12 I think there's definitely a lot of potential for Pathfinder, especially, you know, he's got that perk now where you can electrify the ziplines, make those rotates a little safer. Definitely some options for our Mechanical Man. Yeah, Pathfinder, he needs his time back on top. You know, it's been a long while for Mr. Pathfinder. I don't really think ever in the history of ALGS has Pathfinder been meta. Oh yeah, no, he was at the start.

05:39:37 Ja. Ja. Ja. Ja. Ja. Ja. Ja. Ja. Ja. Ja. Ja. Ja. Ja. Ja. Ja.

05:40:07 Ich denke, wenn ALGS angefangen hat, es war die Wraith, Gibby... Was war das 3? Was war das 3? Ah, no, Gibby kam später. Gibby war eigentlich ganz untervaluiert. Ja, es war ja, es war mostly Wraith, Watts, und Pathfinder. Ah, okay. Well, anyway. I'll back a ways a few years, das für sure.

05:40:32 Hmm, Down Beast is getting pretty busy. I'm just having a look on the minimap here, and it's lit up like a Christmas tree with player nameplates. Not quite as, uh, exciting over toward checkpoint right now. SWQ are sort of holding some of the rotates, basically, but beyond that, no one else is really too interested in that area of the map. Well, we go over to Down Beast, and yeah, this is where things are starting to get very, very busy. Moonfire already having lost Pete.

05:41:03 So there's gonna be a res angle there for them, even with a respawn. Yeah, currently got two evacs on them. Tommy and Kung, they lost one of their members in Checkpoint just before. See, now they're trying to find a safe spot. Like me, enjoying the rock climbing there, but we'll keep them safe. I don't know for how long.

05:41:31 Zone continues to pull back. It looks like it could be going all the way to back platform of Down Beast. Dreamfire, yes, they've got the Moby. They found it and they should be able to get Pete back in. Oh my god, that's huge for them because they have such a fantastic spot to play from. As long as they don't get pushed and again, it's not the kind of position I think that's really going to get pushed. No one wants to give up their control of high ground or building.

05:42:01 So, ich sollte eigentlich okay sein.

Kämpfe um Positionen und Team-Eliminierungen

05:42:07

05:42:07 Final start having a look into the bunkers here and very nearly losing tree cleaner, but he's able to fight back bounce back fussy down Looking for this hasn't really been having the most fantastic of nights and once again here into Dawnpoint it might continue to be difficult because they are really being bullied out at the moment there's a fair bit of damage going back and forth it's down to just Raki now to try to hold on for final start Selka is going to get the job done

05:42:36 Ich meine, das war... Ist Triglieder der Kontrolle? Oh mein Gott, der Lock-On-Through-The-Smoke-Ther war eine der Kontrolle-Momenten, ich glaube, ich habe gesehen. Ich habe fast fast keine Vision auf den Gauster-Gas, aber die Kontrolle-Nose-Best. Oh, BYY. Sie sind für ihre Leben, so... Die Red-Shields, sie sind okay, und Tom Yum-Kung ist zu kommen.

05:43:03 Es wird ein ganzes Kind für die Bunker-Position in der S-O-S-S-W-Q kommen hier in der 3rd-Parte-Final-Start. Sie waren nicht wirklich gut, so die S-W-Q walk away mit der Position für jetzt.

05:43:21 Given that DNZ is the only team kind of out on the other side of the zone, I can't imagine they're actually going to be getting contested for it, because DNZ is just XQ solo, but I'll tell you what, he's done well for himself. Into the top 13, and he's got, uh, Purple Evo. But I think it might be coming to an end now. I've just cast a cursed him so hard. Rest in peace to my boy XQ. DNZ is eliminated. I got a placement point this time. That's better than nothing.

05:43:51 Es ist etwas leichter. Die Heroes haben wir hier auf Empty White. Auf der anderen Seite haben sie auch triple Reds. Dan, gut für sie. Killdevil ist noch ein Blues. Decenten Spot, doch.

05:44:10 Duos ahead of them as well, if they can clear out full engage. That's in that building, yeah, to the north of them there. They'll just have a really easy walk-in. As you can see there, Dreamfire now back up to a trio in a good spot up the north. War wants a Firebird. I don't mind their spot at all, just playing the little building. They've even got a Moby Rez Beacon trying to block one of their entrances. And even the team's on top, right? There's so much of the beast that's in.

05:44:40 Uh, die Teams auf der Top, wie AGL, haben dort gespielt. Sie müssen sich für die ganze Zeit erinnern, dass sie eigentlich ziemlich low auf Ammo sind. Es ist unsurprison, glaube ich, an dieser Stelle. Aber ja, es ist wirklich... Ich glaube, es ist nur Jackie mit der Longbow, der noch genug Ammo hat, und vielleicht noch etwas Evo-Damage hat. Aber es ist nicht so, dass er das ganze Team für den ganzen Team ist, kann er? Nein, natürlich nicht.

05:45:02 Unfortunately, even if we're looking at AGL, QQ is playing Double Light Ammo, Spitfire Alternator, and he's got 78 Reloadable, so that's really not a whole lot to play with at all. Ammo management is going to be a big factor for them. T4, we talked about them pretty much, you need to win this lobby. That doesn't really seem like it's going to be an option anymore. So, just got to go out and do their best for the last few games of today.

05:45:30 WQ are going to push their way in and they'll be contesting with a couple of teams right in front of them outside BMZ has an angle on that as well for Dreamfire though he's a little further around the headlands so to speak

05:45:49 Und jetzt wieder zurück zu der Souten Seite des Downbeast, wo Kildevill ist auch zu machen. Ihr habt auch über Full Engage zu sein, als ein 2-0 zu sein. Das ist die Möglichkeit für Kildevill zu versuchen, das Fakt zu haben. Sie haben ein paar Kildevill von Kildevill zu versuchen, ein paar Kildevill zu kommen. Kildevill ist auf der Top-Side des Downbeast. Kildevill ist unter der Pump, aber so far haben wir noch nicht verloren. Die Schöne sind wirklich gut von Boll und gut Patience ist erzielt. Und Kildevill ist voll Engage, das wird...

05:46:17 Allow them to go to Purple Shields, and hopefully they'll be able to get the res there as well. Looks like it should be a safe res, though there's some nades getting tossed in their direction. Angel and Kutlan spotted out, I believe.

05:46:32 Oh my, there are so many teams on this side of Town Beast. I mean, you're on the other side, you are chilling, right? Killdevil, love their position. Warmonster Firebird, down to a duo, but still not too bad. Dreamfire, Godspot on the platform. Every single other team, the remaining, what is that, five teams now? Absolute bluff up on the other side. White, black.

05:47:00 Oh, das ist nicht ein guter Start zu den Fighten für sie. Jojo ist ganz gut auf die Batsche. Und Orgundstern ist nur noch ein paar Batsche. Es ist einfach nicht zu stoppen. Es ist RELENTLOS, wirklich. Sie versuchen wirklich zu finden, eine kleine Glimpse von Cover. Und dann all of a sudden, MXF rocksen hinter sie. So, das war jetzt nicht so. Das war aus der Flying Pan, in die Fire. Sie sind so. So, 7 Teams remaining, doch. Und diese Zone...

05:47:29 Das hat einen Weg zu gehen, bevor es verlassen wird.

05:47:39 Okay, so now closing. A lot of those teams have actually managed to sort out what's going on there. One wants to Firebird. Unfortunately, you know, they wanted to discover, but they're going to have to actually use it in the end. A lot of the teams making their way underneath, through the bottom of the down beast right now. But that just opens them up to angles from Dreamfire and Roy. Grabbed two with a single clip from the Havoc.

05:48:10 He also popping off here with the Nemesis and energy bullets just decimating everyone who walks in here from the eastern side. Oh, into the final five and Dreamfire have been doing a great job of just keeping themselves under the radar for the moment. This is now where they really have their opportunity to actually collect the points as teams are pushing their way in and obviously you've got cool cross shots, a great angle for Dreamfire to play with. This is where they can really accelerate and kind of pop off. Boom!

05:48:38 Yep, they just chucked the... The Causticult goes into the building, and they're trying to finish off Warmonster Firebird here. I think this is for the second time, basically, that they've sieged this building. They managed to do it, but MXF, they have managed to reset. They've only got two blues, a little bit of overshield here for the new castle, and then you've got Jackie.

05:49:04 Um, maybe try to go for a double rez. He's playing spoiler. He's really playing spoiler right there because he's actually gone in behind Dreamfire, finished off Pete again straight away as soon as he got rezzed, and kind of opened the door up a little bit for MXF, though he's run straight into MXF and, yeah, and he's kind of held MXF up. The problem with that is that that's going to give Dreamfire the time to reset, where otherwise MXF could have...

05:49:26 Potentially waltz their way into what might have ended up actually being a 3 on 2. Now though, a bonafide 3 on 3. And they don't have height control. This is going to be a tough one to win. Dreamfire. Looking strong to close it out. They were literally looting. While Dreamfire was getting about 300 health back on top of them. Why not matter? Can't find the shield swaps though.

05:49:50 Ja, es ist ein 1 für 1 so far. Os Siren hat sich auch geholfen, so Dreamfire ist okay. Es ist 3MZ zu versuchen, den Final Fight zu halten. Es ist ja bei 1.5HP, der Newcastle Wall ist in da, um Probleme zu haben. Und er hat den Schrauben mit der Mozambique. Es ist MXF, dass er aus dem Weg geht. Anyway, wir haben den Method geholfen, aber wir können nicht den Resulten.

05:50:14 They take their time, and then this time Elfish Patience does actually pay off. So, congrats there to MXF. I mean, you know, look, Dreamfire is still very handily taking some big points there at the end of that one. Lace, I think, I think actually in our intro video, there's a clip of Dreamfire doing something very similar where they played exactly the same spot in Down Beast. It's a well-known routine for them.

05:50:42 Ja, ich dachte, Killdevil hatte eine sehr gute Position auf der South Side der Beast, aber sie hatten eine toughe Rotation zu den Sites, Dreamfire, die einfach nur ein paar Kills mit der Nemesis haben, die ich nicht wirklich sehen, wie viel zu tun ist. Aber es war einfach für sie zu picken, die Punkte zu finden. Das war ein bisschen schwer mit Final Start, und ich glaube, es war Boogieporters, sie hatten eine schwierige Zeit, in den heutigen Matchen zu finden, um ganz früh zu finden, bei Final Start zu finden.

05:51:11 Ja, es war ein bisschen tougher von dem. Ich meine, es war ein ziemliches Match da, das war nicht? Um, sie haben nur nur gewonnen, aber Fookie Borders, wir wissen, dass sie wahrscheinlich wieder zurückkehren können, um, bevor... wirklich, uh, niemand kann worry about es. Und sie sind in so eine gute Position in den Oval Standings, als auch, dass, uh, es irgendwie fühlt sich, dass sie nicht wirklich in den Kopf haben.

05:51:37 Yeah, they don't have to worry too much indeed, you know, they could just be playing a little bit lower, just, you know, maybe in the top ten, um, and they'll still be able to take themselves to the regional final, but, uh, yeah, Dreamfire here and the MXF going toe-to-toe. I was literally sitting on the edge of my seat, it was so very close as, uh, you know, they're going head-to-head here just to have the 1v1. I literally thought Dreamfire was gonna have it, but then, uh, MXF coming through, and they managed to get a couple of kills along the way.

05:52:05 Ja, es hat sich um, um, ein paar. Ich denke, Dreamfire might have endet mit 10. So, obviously, they've done very well. They're gonna be, uh, gonna be happy with that one. And, uh, yeah, I mean, look, Dreamfire, they were one of the teams who did need to pick things up a little bit. I mean, you know, it was a shoddy start of the season for them. And doing better here and now.

05:52:30 will improve their chances of making that. I mean, they'll make the Regional Finals, but I mean, making LAN especially. But wow, that is a really close leaderboard here, Lace. I mean, not a lot of separation. You do not have a Legends Gaming just running away from it, running away with it here. Even once on Dumpling, you know, they're sitting up there at 37th, of course. Elfish kept saying, you know, they need a sixth or higher to finish out the group stages in the number one spot. Looks like that's very much a possibility.

05:52:58 Yeah, only 14 points difference between them and Legends Gaming. So if they just, you know, even sit in this third place as they have throughout these matches, then they'll take the lead there. But what a great match from MXF. You know, only, like we said, very close there. One point above AGL. But I feel like they just came out of nowhere, to be honest with you. We've had AGL sort of sit at the top for quite a bit. SWQ as well sitting at the top. And of course, Wonton. But yeah, MXF just sort of taking that top position. It can always be a quite...

05:53:28 Ja, ja, es ist ein sehr guter Lobby hier, Lace, das macht es ein EXCITING!

05:53:56 Das ist es, so unsere Pro-Pros haben in den tiefen. Wir gehen für eine kurze Pause hier und wir sehen uns bald.

Analyse der Leaderboards und Strategien für Stormpoint

05:58:57

05:58:57 And welcome back, everybody. A little bit of a slow start there to game number four. Not oncoming for Stormpoint, but we were blessed at the end with the action from MXF and Dreamfire with MXF taking the win. You know, Genome, it's a close game for even teams like Wanton Dumpling where they have the chance to overtake Legends Gaming in the overall leaderboard. We've got SWQ, Warmonster Firebird, and potentially Kill Devil are fighting for the spots.

05:59:25 in der Region Finals. Ja, es ist ein schwerer Fight down da. Ich bin nicht auf dem Boden, aber auf die 20e Platz. Ich habe einen Blick auf, wo wir sehen, wo wir unsere Circles enden haben, so far. Das Split auf Stormpoint Lace. So, wir waren vorhin, wie wir eigentlich hatten ein guter Spread, über auf World's Edge. Jetzt geht es um, nach Stormpoint. Ich bin, in Apex South.

05:59:54 Wir haben auch ein guter Spread hier, ehrlich gesagt. Wir können auch ein bisschen mehr aufnorthen. Wir können auch ein bisschen mehr aufnorthen. Wir können auch ein bisschen mehr aufnorthen. Aber ja, ich denke, wenn man sich die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die.

06:00:16 Yeah, there's a zone I really want to see, but I don't know if it's going to happen in professional level. But there's a zone at the top of Lightning Rod where there is a tiny little island and a massive zip line that sort of takes you to Zeus Station. And now I've played a rank match and it has pulled onto that tiny island. So if you are there, you win. And I want to see that action. So let's take it away. This is game number five on Stormpoint.

06:00:41 Yes, it's the ultimate game for the evening to go and last couple of opportunities for teams to make their mark on the scoreboard for this lobby and pretty much for the season as well unless they're going to make it through to the top 20. So there are a couple of teams that need to be doing some moving and shaking in these last two to keep their dreams alive.

06:01:05 Let's see if they can make it happen. Apparently we're going to have seen every single one of these balloons by the end of today. Hello there. Alright, Evo Harvesters online.

06:01:24 Und wir schauen an MXF hier, was sie bekommen als Evo Harvesters? Nicht ein paar, eigentlich. Wow, sie haben sich absolut screwed, in fact. Was ist die Closeste zu dem? Die Lachsido Station? Das ist r

06:01:49 Godrock ist ein guter Spot zu be in diesem kinder Circle. Und natürlich, X and Y, haben Sie das. Wow, das ist FASCINATING, eigentlich. Es ist immer wie er, wie... ...klaiming das Spot, eben ohne drei Personen. Also, die Leute sagen, oh Gottrock ist Taken, wir können nicht spielen. Ja.

06:02:09 Es ist einfach sehr gefährlich, weil wenn jemand passiert, dass viele Bluthounds in der Lobby sind, wenn sie wissen, dass es nur YC ist, dann wird er in der Probleme sein. Weil XT und J.R. hat sich da ihre Zeit zu tun. Ich sehe ihn mit dem Nemesisten, dass er auch viele Schüsse aus wie möglich ist. Er hat nicht so viel ammo zu spielen, aber er hat sich zu pretend, dass er eigentlich ein Force zu bequen mit.

06:02:35 Es gibt Zeit für seine Teammitglieder zu rotatieren. Wir haben hier auch die Heroes, die in den MxF zu beantworten haben. So, es sieht aus wie X und Y wird eigentlich... ...ein zu werden. Es ist ein bisschen cheeky von ihnen, aber ich denke, es ist... Es ist ein Kalkulatet-Risk. Ich bin mehr als froh, dass sie das von ihnen sind. Es sieht aus, dass sie sich das aussehen können. Und jetzt... ...eine hat es geholfen. Ja, ich denke so.

06:02:59 A lot of wild armors, though. You know, I think that, uh, it looks like X and Y also did not get an Epo Armister. So, you know, they've got, uh, there's like the Spider Tunnel, um, X and Y get, so that means XD gets his up to blue, but for everyone else, no dice. I'm still watching X and Y, by the way, and, uh, they've sent YC back into Cenote to do some looting, so he was the guy that kind of pushed up on top of Godrock.

06:03:23 Solo, sat there and held the position. Now that the other two have made their way back up there, he's taken the trident back into Cenote to do his looting. So, they've got this figured out, man. They've got this on lock. That is genuinely fascinating. I mean, you know, they... Obviously, one of the teams running with a coach. Not everyone in Apex South does have access to a coach. And it's the kind of play that I think you get with...

06:03:46 Ja, mit dieser extra help, jemand zu wirklich theorycraften, so ja, wirklich cool. Um, als wir die Boogie Boarders... Oh, nope, they've, uh... Looks like they're actually gonna leave Fosse for dead here. They have to. Ja, I mean...

06:04:04 Ich suppose. Ja, es ist ein schwerer Tag für Boogie Boarders, das ist für sicher. Racki und Panne sind noch zu gehen, als ein Duo. Ich sehe sie nicht mehr Rez in Zeit. Und M.D.Y.W.I.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.V.E.

06:04:32 Krypto auf der anderen Seite ist es wahrscheinlich zu sehen und sehen sie. So... Das wird nicht einfach sein. Oh, das ist ja. D&D's been eliminated. Reste in Peace XQ. Es war nicht lange für das Welt in diesem Spiel, unfortunately. No, er ist wirklich... Er ist wirklich zu messen, die Team, die Legends-Statistik-Elfisch. Er ist von Mirage, das Spiel. Und wir haben auch keinen Geld für die Pathfinder-Loba. So... Wow, okay.

06:05:01 Ja, das ist... Sie wissen, wie ich schon gesagt habe, dass wir einfach alle Team-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann-Mann

06:05:30 Oh, he has just made it away, for those that are interested. Oh, he's being chased. Actually, there's no way. There's no way he's getting out of here alive. Yeah, so, there you go. You can see in the killfeed, Feiju gets the knock onto Raki and Pukipor is there. Hole gets even deeper. It'll be much more difficult to dig out of now. Although, I suppose Fuzzy can still be rezzed. The banner was collected. It's going to be a matter of trying to find Raki's banner now. And assuming Panna can actually escape.

06:05:59 Ich weiß nicht, dass er sich um die Rache geht, er wird Rezraki gehen. Wenn MDYY losse die Traile... Es ist eine Chance, dass er... Okay, es ist eine Chance. Zip-Line. Sorry. Ja, das ist nicht es. Sorry für, you know, ich habe ein paar Hoffnung. Ja. Ja, es ist ein schwerer Tag in der Office für Boogie Boarders. Well, da sind die Legend-Pixen, die du gesagt hast.

Taktische Entscheidungen und Team-Zusammenstellungen auf Stormpoint

06:06:25

06:06:25 The Newcastle pick is actually not a troll, though. We've seen that pretty consistently from MXF every single game that they've played on Stormpoint today, which this will now be their fifth. Yep. I think we've seen some decent stuff from it as well. It hasn't been an awful pick. I mean, we asked earlier on where the perks were at with Newcastle. Hadn't...

06:06:47 Hatten wir es bis zu Level 3, so ich bin nicht sicher, welches ist es da. Ich denke, es wird wahrscheinlich ein Stronghold sein. Aber ja, er startet aus mit Thick Shield. Und das Thick Shield. Mit den 2 Cs. Ja, genau. Das ist das was ich zu sagen. Das ist das was ich zu sagen. Das ist das was ich zu sagen. Ich bin glad du gott das. Es ist das Plus 250 HP für beide sections, glaube ich, ist, der Mobile Shield. Das ist ein schönes bisschen. Und dann, ja, ich denke... Ich bin...

06:07:14 Miracle Worker, Revive Allies with HP Regen, uh, you know, can be good for resets, and then you've got Stronghold, Increased Council War, HP, and Energized Duration, also good, but, you know, it's, I think some people are of that, uh, that thought school of, you know, you shouldn't play to lose, you know, which is like, so you shouldn't pick those, sort of, uh, the Revive perks, but like...

06:07:38 I was scared for him for a second though, actually VK Gaming have decided to Skyward Dive, but they were like literally right next to Final Start there, as Final Start were trying to chase down outside. They were kind of like tunnel visioning a little bit. Luckily for them, VK Gaming decided that they actually wanted to make their rotate instead of shoot them in the side, because that could have been very dangerous indeed. But VK Gaming will get themselves set up inside of the pyramid behind Sito Station. Yep.

06:08:05 A couple of teams pulling into Sido now, as you said, Final Star will probably be behind them. Any of those teams that have the Bloodhound have the opportunity to try and grab that Survey Beacon, but it's a risky one, especially if you don't have Gibby. I mean, you can try and get your bang to smoke it off, but teams are still probably going to have a crack at you.

06:08:29 Pot-shots happening. Actually, quite a lot of good shots in there from Asia. That G7 scout was doing the work. Definitely not shying away from this one. Kind of holding the W key a little bit. Here's T4. Outside, they actually did manage to get that scan off over at Cedar Station. So, very good info for their next rotation. Super valuable.

06:09:01 Well, final start. Hold up in a position where T4 wants to rotate through or past or maybe go into themselves. That is going to dissuade T4 from pushing their way forward, at least for the moment. Bang, it will provide a bit of space. I mean, they're not shying away from this fight at all, are they? Doesn't seem like a particularly valuable area of the map to be fighting over, though.

06:09:34 Ich meine, die Ring ist gerade da, so... Wenn es ein Platz gibt, dann würde es gut machen. Die Leute haben zu bemerken, sie haben keine Kredite hinter ihnen, das ist einfach nur ein Duo. Es gibt keine Kredite, sie sind auch nicht interessiert, aber sie werden... ...einhalb der Kredite gehen. Sie werden ihren Weg weiterentwickeln. Sie werden ihren Weg weiterentwickeln. Ein bisschen Sneakie Beakie-like.

06:10:04 Es ist nicht viel für T4 zu tun hier. Ich weiß nicht, dass sie ein ganz viel erreichen können. Unix war nicht. BK Gaming ist nicht mehr in der Richtung. Sie haben zu... ...hide... ... von den Faux-Shots kommen.

06:10:23 S.W.Q.'s turn to get into the mix. The Beast of the Hunt here, or Yuling providing all the info that's needed, but it's just not going to be enough because outside hold strong inside of their building. Trying to push into the Caustic building. Yeah, that's going to be a tough one. You've got the drills, but if time is not on your side, I think advantage goes to the Caustic team there.

06:10:53 Oh, very much on top of the mill, actually. Um, we're getting a pull, so. Streamfire, still holed up inside. MDY Black in the northern building. And then you've got, uh, AGL sitting down in the Survey Beacon building. All of those within Ring 5.

06:11:19 Kon, he's actually just pulling the medkit. He's got Savior in front of him and Cheeky behind him, by the way. Cheeky's actually just been taken out by Final Start on the backside, so this means Savior gets the chance to have the 1v1 at the very least. Um, but he knows that there's another team about to wrap him because they've taken down Cheeky, so he's just got to try and get out. Um, he's...

06:11:44 See, this is interesting, right? Savior actually picked both of the Burglar's Best Friend, like the Bracelet Tactical Upgrades, because obviously he knows he's probably going to have to try and, you know, just get him out there. Yeah, that's an interesting one. Probably if you were playing with a full team, you wouldn't be choosing his upgrades, but again, he's just got to play to the only option he's got available to him here. Yeah, I do be like that sometimes, I guess.

06:12:13 What can you do? MD by Wyatt. Focusing on getting the revive at the moment. We'll stick back up in action. Red armor. All good in the hood. And final start. Resets to red as well. So this is a pretty decent start to their campaign in the fifth game of the second lobby.

06:12:36 Looking for an Aerial Rotate Beast of the Hunt in play as well, so lots of info available for TreeCleaner. Doesn't spot anyone, so decide this is going to be the position that we're going to send it into up on top of Godrock. Still another team to focus on, that is causing a couple of problems. There's MXF that's up there. Not a bad spot for MXF to be, actually. They've got the Newcastle, they've got the Watson, so...

06:13:01 We've got some of that cover that they can set up, but Zonu is going to push them off soon. I mean, they're still on double white. Yeah, it's weird, isn't it? I mean, you've got red, red, purple here. And then MXF. Still looking for that damage. Yeah, looking pretty dire potentially for them in the long term. But for now, it's VK Gaming that we have to worry about. And they are going to be able to get this res.

Kämpfe um die Mill und strategische Rotationen

06:13:33

06:13:33 Der Team ist vor allem über ihn. Es scheint sie zu sein, zumindest für den Moment. Mil Finish. Ich liebe eine gute Mil Finish. Es ist eine solche Zones, die sich mit viel Verticalität befindet. Viel mehr Nooks und Krannies. Die Mil kann ein paar Teams halten in es. Man kann ein Team sein. Man kann ein Team sein oder zwei auf. Man kann ein Team sein. Man kann ein Team sein. Man kann ein Team sein. Man kann ein Team sein. Man kann ein Team sein. Man kann ein Team sein. Man kann ein Team sein. Man kann ein Team sein. Man kann ein Team sein. Man kann ein Team sein. Man kann ein Team sein. Man kann ein Team sein.

06:14:03 Der Package kommt in. Wer ist die Bangalore? Man genug zu gehen und holen das. Wer ist das? Wer ist das? AGL, vorhin, haben die Krypto gekauft und die Survey Beacon gewonnen. Nein, das nicht. Sie haben. Sie haben mit der Krypto-Jone gewonnen. Um, sie haben für das. Just über die Zeit.

06:14:34 Wir sehen die Evac-Towers gehen, und die Leute müssen die Decision machen. Ah, es ist MDY-White, das machte Sinn, eigentlich. Sie haben auf und dann haben sie direkt zurückgezogen. Es ist gar nicht nur ein Wert der Rotate auf dem Balloon, aber... Sie sind eigentlich immer noch alle alive, also... Again, Sie können die Methoden, Sie können die Resulten für MDY-White. Die Sache ist, ich denke, dass sie eine Öffnung für eine Öffnung zu machen, und das ist es, als die Zone wirklich machte sie.

06:15:02 X and Y are going to try to defend their pocket of safety inside of the mill, but we're going to have to reset first. Bats are on offer. Pretty good. Okay, casualty just making it here. To MXF. Yep, uh...

06:15:28 Oh god, they're trying to deal with this Posterkull. It's very tough here. X and Y melt them up. Yeah, I mean, look, they were on Y. It's way too late into the game there, I think. Honestly, you have to try and get a bit more poke in than that. Otherwise, you are going to be fodder. Also the case for Final Start.

06:15:51 Not quite set up inside the next zone though, and they are going to have a bit of a path to forge. A gauntlet to run. There's like five teams. Five teams on their side of the mill. Four teams on the other side of the mill. VK Gaming have kind of got the only position outside of the mill that might actually be playable. It's like the rocks kind of to the south of the mill in the middle.

06:16:19 A fern to hide in if maybe your opponents haven't turned their graphics down. Make sure you've got your green skins on so your extra camo. ADL City on the other side of the rock, no evacs available to them though.

06:16:41 Aber sie haben einen Gibby. Und sie haben einen Trident. Das macht alles besser. Oh mein Gott, sie sind eigentlich weg. All right, Bubble Rotate. Hier wir gehen. Oh, du sahst für einen Moment. Oh mein Gott. Oh mein Gott. Oh mein Gott. Oh, well, sie werden müssen für ihn jetzt. Ich weiß nicht, sie sind in den Ticket. Komm, Jum Kung. Piece of the hunt ist, und da ist vieles von Zicke.

06:17:08 Es war Spaß für AGL, aber es dauert sehr lange.

06:17:17 Ich liebe dich! Die boost in der richtigen Zeit, um auf den Mill zu gewinnen. Ja. Das ist toll. Manage 9, das ist nicht so schabby, als ein Duo. Look at that. Look at that Trident, es ist schön. Surely jemand muss in das und fahren es. Ich meine, es ist perfekt Hover auf der Ruf. Das ist... Wow.

06:17:43 Uh, Krala ist jetzt schon viel Arbeit für Peak Guard, One Ton Dumpling sitzt in 3rd overall für die Lobby. Das ist mehr als genug zu nehmen für die Seizehn. Sie werden immer noch weiter kämpfen. Ich weiß nicht, was die Trident ist aus, aber du kannst nicht ein Bullen durch es, so es ist wert, dass es gold in diesen N-Circles ist.

06:18:11 Shots from XD RE45, was do you reckon? Are you a fan of the RE45? Yeah, I am enjoying it. Especially in Bangalore meta, assuming of course you have the hammer points on it. Without the hammer points, eh, not so great. But yeah, the fact that you can chuck a Digi on it and put some hammer points as well, yes. I think it's good. I don't think it's over tuned by any means. I was getting respawned in the middle of this as well. There was an EMP that landed right on top of that respawner too.

06:18:40 MDYY, ein Spray mit dem Alternator. Es ist nicht genug genug, um es zu Ende zu enden. Aja und Dexter sind in den Problemen, so Tom Yum Kung, wir werden sehen, wird der Feld ziemlich schnell. Aber ich mag das so far, von MDYY.

06:19:02 Ziggy's holding on, but not for long. And that is the end of Tom Yum Kung. MTYBlack actually didn't know he was there, almost lined them up with the Arkstar stick. There's a little bit of griefing coming through there.

Finales Gefecht und Wanton Dumplings Triumph

06:19:17

06:19:17 Ich habe noch 5 Teams in den letzten Endes jetzt, als die Ring wird weitergehen. Oh mein Gott. Und dann gibt es etwa 5,000 Bangalore-Altes. Oh mein Gott! Exit Y! Exit Y! Exit Y! Just got entirely cleaned up by Bangalore, ich bin pretty sure. They got, they got Karpa Bombs. Like, there was no other way around. Absolutely. There was nowhere they could go. They, they just could not go anywhere. Not Blitzkrieg. They do be like it. Well.

06:19:46 M.D.Y. Black inside of the mill. They're going to have to go. Augenstern hoping desperately to get that med off. And will. And here's the push. First player down. It's Phaidru. He's going to have to be the Sacrificial Lamb. And Wanton Dumpling. Oh, they set up the crossfire. There's just no getting past that. Basequads remain. But Wanton Dumpling looking very healthy indeed. Jackie Chan starting to take some damage. But it's not going to matter. Wanton Dumpling.

06:20:13 Way too strong, way too solid, full sets of reds, they get it done. And, you know, they were in third place, winning this probably sets them up to look to A, win the lobby, and B, look to win the group stages. Yeah, yeah, I think they've already pretty much won the group stages with the performance they've put in today so far, but obviously it's about crossing your T's, dotting your I's, and I know someone that loves the alphabet. That's you.

06:20:41 That's me, we love that, we love spelling and speaking of some alphabets, you know, we saw, was it a bird, was it a plane? No, it was AGL flying on a trident, leaving, you know, some nice cover there for Tom Young-kun right at the end, but unfortunately, you know, being swung there, I think it was by MDY Black. You know, I had high hopes for Dreamfire, it was another nice zone.

Analyse der Teamstrategien und Bedeutung der Platzierung

06:21:02

06:21:02 Ich glaube, es ist nicht so cool für sie, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um

06:21:28 Ja, ich denke so, ich denke so. Aber es ist genau das, was ihr habt mit HL zu sehen, dass das bubble fließt. Das ist nicht so, was ihr habt mit Wonton Dumpling gesprochen. Es ist nicht nur über das Lobby und nicht nur über das Spiel, sondern es ist auch über die beste Position in der nächsten Woche. Even wenn ihr einen absoluten Stinker habt, von der Final Lobby.

06:21:55 Und jetzt sagen wir uns jetzt absoluten, nicht mehr Punkte zu bekommen. Wir können wahrscheinlich von dieser Position noch auswählen, um einen internationalen Platz zu spielen. Das ist wirklich, am Ende des Jahres, was die Teams sind für. So es gibt immerhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhinhin

06:22:22 Obviously, once the chips are down, hopefully you've got the fundamentals rolling. Yeah, I mean, it's definitely looking like it's rolling quite nicely for Wonton Dumpling at the moment. Exactly huge there. Total of 60 points, you know. Is that a kill point? Is that 28?

06:22:34 für sie und das ist absolut total insane. Wir sind so üste zu dem steamrollen und taking out a lot of killpoints, aber ich fühle mich das ist, das ist exceptional. Das ist eine unserer höchste killpoints dieser Woche und ich denke, vielleicht sogar sogar noch einmal. Aber sie sind nicht so shy, wenn sie eine Chance zu third party, sie werden definitiv da sein. Wir haben noticed, dass sie ein bisschen mehr smart spielen. Sometimes sie steamrollen zu hart und es kostet sie, die winnen. Wir sehen, sie sind 5th, 4th, etc. Aber ja, diese Zeit um...

06:23:04 They were not stopping. But another great performance there by AGL. You know, like we said, we haven't seen too much of them, but this week alone, they've definitely solidified, you know, those top kind of spots, 47 points for them. And again, MXF doing extremely well. Usually they were battling up with Dreamfire, but to have them in third, great stuff. And there's the flying trident we love to see.

06:23:29 This was a full send as well. That's like a ramp, you know? I don't know if you were kind of like a sick lad as a kid, you know, but I used to make some ramps in the front yard with my scooter, and that's exactly what they looked like. And that's exactly what I looked like as well. I was that Trident, but in a six-year-old kid body.

06:23:47 Absolutely. We were born in the same year, I'm pretty sure. We didn't have a lot of gaming consoles to play inside. We were making sick ramps, chalk, things on the road and doing whatever we can with our bicycles. I sure as hell made a couple of ramps and had some, I guess, bad outcomes, kind of like AGL did as well, where you're just full standard. It doesn't go your way. But you know what? Sometimes these teams have to make big risks just to sort of solidify themselves somewhere. It was a bit of a risk. And who was waiting on the other end? That was Tom Young-kun.

06:24:16 Und dann hat sie einen kleinen kleinen Cover da an der Top of Mill. Ja, wir haben gesagt, sie hatten ein bisschen eine schwierige Spot zu spielen, so ihr habt einfach zu spielen, das Risperse Reward. Und dann ist es nicht viel zu tun, aber send es. Genau, und das war das Game Nummer 5. Wir werden uns ein bisschen geholfen. Ich hoffe, ihr habt die action thus far. Und wir sehen uns bald.

Ausblick auf die Regional Finals und die Bedeutung des letzten Spiels

06:27:45

06:27:45 Welcome back. It's been another big day for Apex South as we are in the final week of our group matches. This being the last game for our groups B versus C and the last game before regional finals. You know, we obviously know who's out in front and who have solidified their spot for next week. Elfish, it might be hard, but tell us or take us through who really needs this next game to go well to get one of those spots for next week.

06:28:12 Yeah, I think I would have to have a look at the overall standings if I really wanted to 100% it. But SWQ, I think with the win that they got earlier on, are probably going to be okay to hold on to their position. They came in at 18th at the start of this lobby. They seem like they're going to be pretty okay. BK Gaming, I think, should probably still be okay to make it all the way to next week as well. Even though they haven't had...

06:28:37 Ja, ich glaube nicht.

06:29:04 The overall standings is something that we can only really speculate at the moment. Wonton Dumpling, though, at the other side of the score, but I suppose it's the team to talk about here as well. And it looks like they are going to do enough to actually secure first place at the end of all of the regular season games. But then obviously we have the finals games next week, which could potentially do some moving and shaking. But yeah, it's been a great night from them here. First, first and fourth, as well as the sixth there. The only real game they miss out on is game number four, where they...

06:29:34 took that 18th place. But even in the previous lobby, which we caught earlier on this afternoon, they finished second there. So they've been a very successful evening for them. I'd say, you know, they're not stopping. You know, even though they do have one of these spots, they want that first spot. So they're not going to slow down whatsoever, even going into this sixth match. But yeah, I believe just to touch back on VK Gaming, you know, they've been sitting under the top.

06:29:59 Ja, das ist schon so sad, ist es?

06:30:26 What are you going to do? 36 minutes. You know, what I want to know, though, from the production team is how they chose Valkyrie as the picture, because this guy's been on, like, every single Legend, basically. We saw him on Mirage last game, Pathfinder the game prior, Valkyrie on World's Edge. So I'm kind of interested, actually, to see what XQ's going to pick up here for the last game of the night. You want to make a bet? What do you reckon it's going to be? I don't know. I feel like Pathfinder went maybe a little bit...

06:30:51 Was das besser für sie? Oder wurde sie get knocked out? Ich kann mich nicht. Ich finde, es war ein bisschen besser. Ja, ich fühle mich mit Valk, sie wurden sehr schnell verletzt. Ich denke, wir werden vielleicht sehen Apathi wieder. Man muss das Charakter werden, um den Weg aus der Squad. Ich wollte auch auf der Saviour verletzen. Sie sind ein Teil von Chuo und dann gehen zu einem Solo, aber noch immer wieder zu collecten. Ich denke, von einem der Teams, um...

06:31:16 So, you know, seeing that sort of play, you know, Savior's doing extremely well, not only ratting, but also collecting a couple of kill points along the way, being one of our duos competing today. So, excellent job by Savior. Yeah, indeed, indeed. Look, I tell you what, I guess we've got a bit of time to talk about things for the moment. Apparently, apparently it was an Octane, so...

06:31:43 Okay, I'm incredibly happy about that because I am a jumpy boy main, so this is just blessing for my heart. Did they change it? Please change it back if you can hear me, Universe. I need more Octane. Look, Octane's kind of useless throughout a lot of these matches, but you know what? Hopefully they can have a little bit of fun, but you know what? That's totally fine. Hopefully, you know, I always wanted Octane Elfish to come back into meta. You know, we had the Rev Octane meta, which a lot of people hated. I know playing as an Octane myself, I...

06:32:12 I hated when a Rev was on my team because I felt like it was a dirty play. So I felt a bit embarrassed. And obviously having the skill tree changes here. Thick skin and reckless. I potentially pick thick skin. Octane has his stim, which is obviously used for movement. Taking less stim damage is kind of crucial for this type of character. Taking less explosive damage as an Octane, you shouldn't really be in that vicinity anyway. And having...

06:32:42 Stim, you'd usually be able to avoid nades easier than other characters. So I personally pick Thick Skin. So that's kind of good. And then, you know, you've got Airborne Agility, which is just changing direction on the jump pad. But, you know, most M&K players can tap strafe anyway. So having Mad Hops, which gives you a double jump pad, is probably the crucial pick when you're playing Octane. But, you know, you're not going to see any of these pros play this character. Just me. Yeah.

06:33:08 Ja, ich war zu sagen, ich denke, in particular, der Stimm, da gibt es keine Argument, wirklich, zu machen, um, warum würde ich 25% weniger damage von Nades nehmen. Denken über den Kursen, wie viel der Kursen wird, wie viel der Kursen wird, wie viel der Kursen wird, von den Stimm, als die Nades nehmen. Es ist einfach ein no-brainer. Ja, so wir haben uns jetzt einen kurzen break, während all diese Teams getrennt für unsere Finalmatch.

06:33:39 Who is going to be the team to challenge the titles of TSM? From legacy to a dynasty, it is now complete for TSM.

06:34:35 I think we're starting to see a bit of a rivalry develop in Apex Legends, as these trophies just keep going back and forth. Dark Zero, TSM is always one of those two teams. Unbelievable final we've had here today. 4-5-4 and eliminating TSM as the first team to go.

06:35:16 Do you fear me, Pilot? I don't fear anything. Can you say the same?

Diskussion über LAN-Events in der APAC-South-Region und logistische Herausforderungen

06:35:40

06:35:40 Welcome back, everybody. Nice to see a couple of clips there from Lan Elfish. We have had Moist Esports and Dark Zero. Some Aussie teams sort of dominate in NA at the moment. I don't know if you saw the scoring recently just came out. We've obviously got some exceptional teams here in Apex South. Our region is crazy. We obviously don't know where Lan is, but what do you think about bringing Lan to Down Under?

06:36:07 Oh, I mean, I would love to see it. I think that's wishful thinking, to be quite honest with you. If we're going to get it in our region somewhere, it's probably a little bit more north than at least us here in AU. You know, maybe somewhere in Thailand, Japan, something like that. That could go pretty hard. Korea maybe as well. I've seen a lot of players from Korea as well. So some food for thought. I don't know if there's anyone watching that could potentially influence those decisions. So, I mean, look, to be fair, it would be great to have an event in AU, but I think there's a couple of regions that probably...

06:36:36 Es ist weil unsere Internet sucks, ist es? Das ist das, was wir sagen. Wir haben die WI-FI, aber unsere Internet ist... Terrible. Es ist ein langer Weg. Ich weiß nicht, wie viel du hast, aber... Every time wir Leute von Overseas kommen zu Australien, die immer sagen, ich bin so far. Das ist einfach immer für mich. Wenn ich mich auf eine Planung habe, dann bin ich 12 Stunden. Ich weiß nicht, was ihr 5-hour transfert zwischen einem Europäischen-Country zu einem Europäischen-Country. Das ist nicht fair.

06:37:05 That's it. I've done the London trip and it's like a 24-hour journey for us. So having land there twice has been kind of crazy for us. But yeah, I would love something in Japan. We have no idea where it's going to be, but I feel like Japan, just having the Apex Festival recently, and just seeing the crowd there and the way that they actually have everything set up, even the cosplays and stuff. I don't know if you checked them out, but it was really nice to see even the B-Stream go over there.

06:37:35 Ja, indeed. Oh, look, it'll be lovely to see, it would be definitely, but it's gonna be a case of what can you possibly, what can you possibly do, you know, right? There's like a lot of, what's the word?

06:38:03 Es ist zu langer. Ich bin aus Worte. Aber es gibt viele Dinge, die sich zu denken, wenn man ein Event versucht. Logistik, das ist das Wort. Ich bin für Logistik, okay? Es gibt viele Logistik, wenn es kommt. Es gibt viele Logistik, wenn es kommt zu einem Event. Und so, ich denke, dass eine in AU ein paar Jahre lang ist, muss ich sagen.

06:38:23 Match number 6? Mate, I've got 6 more hours, not even actually. Probably like another 12, 15, I don't know.

06:38:52 Ich liebe Apex. Es gibt viel Apex. Ich würde gerne etwas sehen, aus Game 6. Ja, ich würde gerne sehen, die erste Bonus Point in Apex South. Wenn Wontan Dumpling nicht die 50 Punkte zu bekommen, aber sie können die 3 Wins bekommen. Wenn sie es aus Dubb geben, ist das eine Bonus Point für Wontan Dumplings. Ich habe gefragt, dass ich jemandem zu sagen, ich glaube, ich glaube, wir haben eine Bonus Point so far. Ich glaube, so.

06:39:20 Yeah, no, I don't actually feel like we had, but, you know, even that bonus point, you know, they're still going to solidify that win. But, yeah, we always want extra, right? We want these little things to pop up here. But, yeah, having a look at going into the bonus points, you know, like you said, they're not probably going to get the 50 points ahead, you know, from another team being in first place. But, yeah, having the first, well, two wins, sorry, they do have the potential to win this match as well and then, yeah, be rewarded that bonus split point.

06:39:49 I think the way they've been playing today as well, you can say there's every opportunity that they might actually win that final game. They were pretty consistent in the previous lobby, the A and C lobby. And they've done pretty well so far in this lobby. I guess, you know, two games out of four or two games out of five is a pretty good shout. So pretty happy with that. And then they got themselves one win in the previous lobby as well. So how many games have they even played today? Six, 11. They've won three out of 11.

06:40:18 Es ist nicht ein bader Conversion Rate. Ja, genau. Gino, ich weiß nicht, ob wir uns durch die Splitpoints haben. Obviamente es ist 25 für 1st und so weiter und so weiter. Ja, wir waren sort of looking at VK Gaming. Sie sind in etwa 15th place at dem Moment. Und sie brauchen ein paar Punkte zu pushen über die Top 20, glaube ich. So, was das convertet into Splitpoints, wenn Sie die Mathen für mich? 5 für 15th.

06:40:45 Ja, so I mean, it depends on how some of these other teams above them go, right? Like Warmaster Firebird, you know, SWQ, that sort of stuff. But, you know, Overlook, they've already, I think, would have done enough to get past Overlook.

06:41:01 Uh, which, oh yeah, that bumps them up into 20th place. So then it becomes a question of like, where does no credit come? Obviously they're playing as a duo today. Seems pretty unlikely that they'll make it in. They're probably just hoping that they don't get into relegation territory. So if they stay 21-22nd, you're safe from that. Uh, and then you've got other teams like DNZ below them. DNZ apparently just playing with their analysts today. Um, obviously that's not much help. Uh, full engage, a duo below them. Uh...

06:41:29 Ja, das ist eigentlich ein ganz guter Chance, dass VK Gaming es in. Ja, und wenn wir uns hier sehen, Elfisch, warum wir uns durch die Skilltree. Watsons ist ein ganz großer Pick auf Stormpoint. Ja, ich glaube, es ist eigentlich ein ganz guter Chance, dass wir die 3367-Split für den Level 2 Evo haben.

06:41:56 Revive Alloys to 50 HP, I mean, that's, I guess, situationally useful, but I feel like the Falling Stars perk was the one that we expected pretty much everyone to be going towards. As far as your Level 3 Evo, it's pretty 50-50, and I guess that comes down to personal preference as to how you expect to be playing your positions. Are you feeling like you're in a position where you're going to have to maybe drop more Alternative Pylons, or do you think you're going to get more value out of the single one that you can place?

06:42:24 Uh, that- that potentially is a game-to-game kind of a basi- uh, that will change on a game-to-game basis, that level 3 Evo, but at least the level 2 I'm surprised to see.

06:42:32 Ja, und es war cool zu sehen, dass die Falling Stars, die ich gesehen habe. Ich glaube, du sagst, es war ein paar Teams zu spielen, ein bisschen Hot Potato zu sehen. So, du kennst die Arc Stars aus den Gen und dann sort of throw sie zurück. So, das war einfach mit Watson. Aber ich fühle mich, du kennst, die Rekhover-HP-HP-HP-Generally, Watson will place die Pylon down, um zu deflecten incoming Nades und zu den Rez. So, ich bin ein bisschen shocked, dass die Stats weniger HP haben. Ja, um...

06:43:00 I think me too, as well. Like, the effect that has on your economy as far as meds go is huge. And also just makes you more survivable, right? Like, I think back to that game in Survey Camp, where we were following around Legends Gaming, you know? And they were trying to get Pylon up after Pylon. And even just buying you, like, 5 or 10 seconds that they have to throw a few extra bullets into to try and get rid of your Pylon honestly makes a big difference. That could be the difference between...

06:43:30 Bangal coming down and stunning your entire team. And you guys staying alive. Yeah, exactly right. Obviously, we're about to head into game number six, just figuring out some stuff. But, well, you know what? I think I just nailed it on the head. Let's head into game number six. I called it early. Let's take it away. This is the final match.

Analyse des finalen Matches und der Strategien der Teams

06:43:51

06:43:51 Oh, thank God we've made it. It was a bit of a journey to get here, but we did make it into the final game indeed of the night. It is match number six of the B and C lobby. It's of course Storm Point. And it's the final opportunity for teams to get their extra points on the board before the final week begins. That'll be next Sunday. So lots to think about, lots to mull over in the coming week and hopefully lots of prac getting done in that week as well because

06:44:21 I mean, when we get into that final lobby, eight spots up for grabs. Eight spots. Not many of them will be decided. Some will, though. By the end of today, we will have most likely a couple of teams locked in for LAN. There's definitely some that are all butt locked in at the moment, like Legends Gaming, Wanton Dumpling as well. Will probably be a mathematical certainty. Yep.

06:44:50 Ja, es wird bis zu diesem Zeitpunkt am Ende des Saison für ein paar Teams, das ist ein guter Reward, für die Arbeit der Arbeit, die sie verwendet haben.

06:44:59 I feel like you can generally get your contest done pretty quickly in Stormcatcher, at least. Like, it kind of funnels you all in together. Yeah. Yeah, but the issue is people just sometimes drop off the top and then they're kind of running all over the place. Do you want to drop to chase them?

06:45:26 In which case you kind of give up control of Soulcatcher or whatever. So it's a bit of a bit of an insider that you have a decision that you have to make, but not so much necessarily in Pomp. MDY Black over on the other side toward Cascade Falls. And themselves set up as well. And there's Bill. Okay, you've named them all? Yep.

06:45:58 Die Zervers sind heute Abend, nicht? Wir alle sind. Wir alle sind. Ich hoffe, alle in der Zuschauer sind heute Abend. Wir sind jetzt Laces, denn wir haben ein Octane auf dem Feld. Wie lange dauert das, ich weiß nicht? Vielleicht nicht sehr lange. Das heißt, wie fast er kann.

06:46:19 I mean, honestly, like, as a solo trying to get away, like, getting mad hops and getting the second jump pad actually probably helps you quite a bit. Oh yeah, could be worse. Definitely.

06:46:32 Oh, okay, he's gone. Actually, that's not a bad shout. He's gone up towards the wall. I think he was looting the little oranges to the west of Zeus Station. And there he comes past, actually grabs a few Evo Harvesters on the way as well. So, yeah. There's a chance. You're saying there's a chance? There's a chance.

06:46:57 We'll engage as a duo. Not sure I'm really liking their chances. So you just gotta keep on keeping on when you're in that kind of a situation. They are inside of the zone at the moment. The second zone shift will kind of fall. In a similar capacity to one we saw earlier today where it's like sort of half pylon, half sort of launch pad area. We're not sure exactly where it'll end up going. Oh, two Mad Maggies. Okay.

06:47:27 Booby Board ist in 14th place right now Uncharacteristic for them Speaking of Mad Maggie, we're gonna get some Mad Maggie action straight off of the Batcon Immediately knocked, it will be a trade though onto SWQ who are somewhat getting the better of this fight Now it actually does come down to Donut on the Maggie, Arc Stars getting tossed on through, they're gonna cause some problems

06:47:51 Less shots! And the shots are starting to miss. Daruna, choking a little bit under the pressure, but gets it done in the end. D4, by the skin of their teeth, are gonna survive. I don't know what that hop was mid-fight. Jumping to completely destroy your accuracy mid-spray. Not sure about that one. Panic or a fatfinger, who knows. A little bit, a little bit. Worked out anyway.

06:48:18 The Double Arc starts to force them out behind and I'll be actually all the rewards last time.

06:48:46 All right, oh, we got Killdevil kind of pulling up on them actually. So boogie boarders, yeah, they should be able to get this med kit off and then they will have reset in time. That's nice. They'll be pulling up with a scan in just a second though. They hear the noise and scan just to see what's going on. So both teams very much well aware of the situation now. All bowling through the window says that's the ticket.

06:49:20 Boogie-Boarders

06:49:48 The job done, at least at the moment. They're sick. They're tired of it. They need some points on the board. They want to play the game. And no one inting them is going to stop them here in game six.

06:50:06 Well, I don't know. I mean, if they keep running into issues, then maybe. But yeah, I mean, this has been a good start, definitely. We're going from 14th to 9th in the space of two fights. Yeah. I mean, remember, it was a close lobby, right? There's a lot of teams, you know, not that far ahead of them. You have warmest of five... Actually, no. Okay, maybe that was two games ago. Now there's a 10-point gap for them to jump two places. That's actually kind of rough.

06:50:35 Den Point Gatho ist... Ich meine, es ist achievable. Es ist. Die congregation von Teams auf Launchpad. Wir missen die Launchpad-Finishers. Ich glaube, wir haben nicht mehr davon bekommen. Ein Team auf das Snipe-Platformer ist, das immer immer so fun zu sehen. Ja. Der Circle actually pulls pretty middle. A lot of mountain in this one.

06:51:05 Und ich denke, ja, es ist noch eine Chance zu kommen, aber es ist eher möglich, die Launchpad. Ich denke, du kannst, wenn du sehen, dass das nächste Zone zu gehen wird. Die Teams vielleicht auch.

06:51:25 x and y struggling in this particular lobby on the southern side of the zone they've got actually a fair bit of free space in front of them to work

06:51:39 These Southern Zones, Dreamfire, like wrapping and just trying to clear out some teams. Cause, you know, often you'll get zones that just pinch behind the mountains. And so you can't really run away. There's not a lot of lateral movement. You can push forward and fight, or you can go back. Um, and they can really force people into these situations, so. Dreamfire can clean up down there, as heroes get cleaned up there by jumping back.

06:52:06 All sorts of problems for them and Dreamfire are causing all sorts of problems as well for MXF Who are going down to just one player left And that is Artorios who is running away So that's a small win for Dreamfire already

06:52:28 Okay, Gaming. 15th place might actually be enough to get them inside of the top 20, but they'd want to be doing a little better than that just to ensure things. It's a rough go of things though in this particular game. They've already lost one member who's calling back inside to potentially get revived. Yeah, they should be fine though. Just full engaged. The one member left alive for them. Just had to full heal underneath the building. Though, now on the hunt.

06:52:58 Okay, how far are they gonna go to try and get him? Oh, he's getting crossfired. He's done for. Absolutely done for.

06:53:11 Vollengager out of the big shot. This building that VK Gaming is fighting over right now is potentially going to be a pretty pivotal point in the next zone. It's just like that other game I think we saw earlier today actually. The zone's a little bit more readable than that one, but yeah, you know, in terms of how important that building is, very similar. DF have actually just made an evac tower rotate. I'm getting stressed for boogie boarders again. They might have to... It's yet another boss they've got to take on here.

06:53:41 Ja, sie werden auch landet auf, von Warmonster Firebird. Sie sind. So, Dreamfire ist outside, Warmonster Firebird ist auf der anderen Seite und Boogie Board ist in der Mitte. Das ist, wiederher, eine sehr große Herausforderung für Boogie Board, und wir können hier, wie sie antworten. Das ist, ich glaube.

06:54:10 Might be. They did. They might be able to fuck with this team. Maybe. Wait, they're getting fucked up there. They might come back. I'm scanning them so they don't peek. I don't want them to pressure us. Smaked us. I don't have dog for ages. Yeah. We can't fight. We can't. Just sitting. Where does this go? Did he just get off the hill? They're gonna pull us out or does it keep pulling back? Just pull it out.

06:54:37 Alright, hopefully. Otherwise, we're kind of fucked. Fine. Where is this team at?

06:54:43 Ja, das ist ein Halt-Squad, das ist ein Team auf der Seite. Ja, das ist ein Halt-Squad, das ist ein Team auf der Seite. Wir sind zwei auf der Seite. Ja, das ist ein Team auf der Seite. Die anderen sind auf der Seite, wenn sie versuchen zu gehen. Ja, das ist ein Team auf der Seite. Ja, das ist nicht ein Team. Ja, das sollte sein. Ich weiß nicht, was sie sind. Ich weiß nicht, was sie sind. Ich weiß nicht, was sie sind. Ich weiß nicht, was sie sind. Ich weiß nicht, was sie sind. Ich weiß nicht, was sie sind. Ich weiß nicht, was sie sind. Ich weiß nicht, was sie sind.

06:55:14 I am Olden 10%.

06:55:20 Ich habe drei Nades, ich habe drei Nades. Ich habe eine Scan, aber sie werden nicht haben für eine lange Zeit. Ich habe 85 zu Dog. Ich habe einen Peek in den Back zu machen. Ja, ich weiß, aber ich kann sie wegnehmen. Ich kann Nadespannen, wenn ich sie. Ich kann Kostikau. Ich kann Kostikau. Ich kann Kostikau. Ich kann Kostikau. Ich kann Kostikau. Ich kann Kostikau. Ich kann Kostikau. Ich kann Kostikau. Ich kann Kostikau. Ich kann Kostikau. Ich kann Kostikau. Ich kann Kostikau. Ich kann Kostikau. Ich kann Kostikau. Ich kann Kostikau.

06:55:48 Sie müssen die Team mit dem, und dann haben wir sie dann, wenn sie sie zurückkennen. Es gibt noch mehr Trebs. Evark ist von irgendwoher. Ich weiß nicht, wo. Ich kann nicht sehen, wie er die Charger ist.

06:56:06 Oh, interesting calls there. We were actually sort of like, you know, cheating and looking at the map while they were making all those calls. Not gonna lie, Fuzzy was getting a lot of stuff right, talking about where the zone's gonna pull, where those other teams around them had rotated to. So yeah, look, Fuzzy definitely got his finger on the pulse right now. We'll see if the team...

06:56:27 oder nicht. Obwohl Racky ist der IGL. Ich denke, es war wohl ein guter Call von Racky zu sagen, auf den U-Til für den Moment. Wait für die Zone zu kommen. Ich denke, das ist wahrscheinlich ein besserer Zeit. Ein höherer Percentage play in terms of getting some KP out of that U-Til. Ich möchte mit XQ von DNZ, unser Obtain Superstar. Still alive! Keeping himself healthy for the moment. Hiding outside of the ring.

06:56:56 Trying to stay under the radar, but yeah, keeping in the game, which is kind of cool to see. Yeah, boogie boarders are trying to show a little bit more presence here with Thrasy on the roof. He's actually the one that's going to be on the receiving end of some shots.

06:57:14 AGO also under the pump and Jackie just getting seized by the caustic gas will be finished off now it's time for boogie boarders to come alive once again and then they run through the gauntlet another time already raki on the floor once the firebird though quickly finish off and so that should be a quick res attempt for boogie boarders they get the scan which will show that no one's pushing in their direction once i'm dunkling

Ergebnisse des Finales und Qualifikation zur Regional Finals

06:57:39

06:57:39 Es gibt große Probleme auch. Sie werden also geteilt werden, also keine Bonus Point für sie heute, aber noch eine sehr erfolgreiche Campaign heute.

06:57:47 Ja, absolut, sensed. XQ, no, he got scanned by the Crypto Drone, that's not fair. Oh, look, he picked up his placement point. Oh, well, he's close to picking up another one as well. Boogie boarders, good reset from Ben there, as you said. Now they're pushing more, going for some kills. They've got the duo of no credit above them, that's a bit of a wild card. Because they're winning this fight handily, but now can they turn around and take out Xavier and Cheeky?

06:58:16 I think they might be able to. They've only got the blue armors to work with here as no credit. Good damage being done on the climb, but it just won't be enough. As you mentioned, Boogie Boarder's pretty healthy with those shields, but another third party to come through here. It's Tom Young-Kung, who are really only a duo. They're not really trying to commit to this fight. Perfect bang ult, though! The bang ult actually makes Tom Young-Kung push back.

06:58:44 Are they gonna get the res off, they've got the gold knock, the evac is up Fussy's up, Fussy is up They're trying to run it in, but they have to run it in at half health and also beat Tom Young Kong Almost an impossible task Yeah, Pan has already been dropped Raki and Fussy are gonna be doing their best, but uh It just seems like a doomed task at this point in time Look at what Raki has to deal with He has come out of the zone right in front of a couple of Tom Young Kong members, now it's

06:59:12 All on to Fussy, who's kind of hiding out in the zone at the moment, but gets tagged up by Corsi Farrell and finished off. That's the end of Boogie Boarders. Tom Young-Kung, for their own right, are going to get punished for that overzealousness toward the edge of the zone, because now that they move their way in, they also suffer the same fate, and it is just Asia left as the last man standing. That was a really poor play by them. I mean, they had every opportunity to pull back into zone.

06:59:38 und versuchen einen Spot zu finden. Und sie haben einfach nur 1 oder 2 Kp. Ja, ich glaube nicht, dass es gut ist, ehrlich gesagt.

06:59:52 Das wird die Ender der Night mehr oder weniger. Ich weiß nicht, dass Aja wird zu viel mehr gemacht werden als Solo. MDYY, Speaking of, es ist die Ender der's. Greenfire, ich glaube, dass sie vielleicht nicht gut sind, hier. Sie haben Kontrollen auf die Bildung. Sehr gut, mit drei Mitgliedern, zwei Setsen von Purple und ein Setsen von Reden. Use das als Staging Ground, um zu machen, das Final Push zu machen. Sehr schön, Rock zu sein, für X und Y.

07:00:21 Nice little spot they've got up the top there. Barrels to block the view. The team in the building down the bottom is outside. Come on Kong. Yeah, there we go. Asia's gets finished off. Outside currently sitting in 11th spot. This could be a big change of pace for them if they can...

07:00:47 Echt out a win here, but I don't know, it's hard. It's like, it's middle of the zone, but also you're surrounded by high ground. Everyone's probably going to be pumping grenades into there as soon as they can. And they do not have a Watson to stop that. They're even getting Nagy drilled right now.

07:01:07 Starting to get a little bit worrisome. All the team down on the low ground outside there kind of hiding in that building in the river. It's not really a building, it's more of a ruin, isn't it? But as long as they kind of keep their heads down, they're going to be in a position that they'll be probably able to play the late game. But as soon as someone starts looking in their direction, then there isn't really that much cover to play with. It's not. Aflow is literally using his VTOL jets to try and like fly up a meter into the roof to take less damage from Ark.

07:01:37 Das ist wie grün die Situation ist. Aber wenn sie die Raum mit Caustic Gas, Barrels, was sie brauchen, sie werden können. Sie können andere Teams kommen in. Denn diese drei Teams sind auf der anderen Seite. Sie haben SWQ, Dreamfire und dann auch VK Gaming. Sie sind ein bisschen weiter unten. X und Y, wie wir gesagt haben, auf der Big Rock haben. Sie haben eine gute Spot, wahrscheinlich die beste Spot.

07:02:05 Um, but we just got to see how much of a beating outside can take. I mean, they're doing an okay job at the moment, but I think that that run has come to an end as Dreamfire just puts them down and takes their position away from them. Though, with that said, I don't know if this is out of the frying pan and kind of into the fire for Dreamfire. Because now they're the ones that are kind of in the center of the zone, everyone looking at them, though.

07:02:30 No shots to come through just yet. I mean, they've got slightly better armors, right? I mean, they can take some of the resources from those boxes that outside had there. I mean, I guess the other thing is, hopefully the other teams have used a lot of their util killing outside and maybe don't have it left to deal with Dreamfire. We'll see if that's true or not.

07:02:55 Oh, es ist über zu kickoff hier in nur einen Moment. Die Zone ist zu spüren. VK Gaming ist zu spüren. Sie werden von der Highgrounds geholfen wollen, aber es sind X und Y sind wirklich wie die Kings der Hillen, auf der Moment stehen. Sie sind großartig und stolz auf dem Rock. Es ist einfach nichts, dass jemand wirklich tun kann. Look at diese Free Shots, die sie bekommen. X und Y haben eine fantastische Zeit, und sie sind sicherlich bei einem der Top 2-Teams in diesem Spiel.

07:03:23 Just gonna be about converting it. The game has given them every opportunity to finish with a win. And now it's on them to make sure that they can take that opportunity and run with it. Barely even rocks. There's pebbles that these teams are hiding behind in this final circle. Again and again. The rolling thunder gets dropped. Cells and bats being used to try and weather that storm.

07:03:49 x and y finally are going to get forced off their perch now things even up oh i don't know maybe i've called it a little bit too early x and y take a lot of damage as they jump off the top somehow they're all still alive yc will eventually go down to the corset gas and it's swq now that maybe are looking to be the team to beat

07:04:10 Wow, was an effort from our Chinese champions there.

07:04:38 Oh, incredible. I mean, you know, we saw outside, we saw how much they were struggling to win in that precarious position, and yet Dreamfire do it. They make it work. Yeah, we can definitely see why Dreamfire have made it to land before. They're exceptional playing, and guys, we can now say, we can now finally...

07:04:59 Files split one group matches undercompleted. That was our game number six there. I want to touch on a huge kill point game there from the boogie boarders. You know, they sat back a little bit in today's matches, but had something like 11 kills before being knocked out at ninth place. So it's kind of nice to see them get themselves back onto the board. You know, huge game here from them. Fortunately, not being able to make it out with, I believe it was Tom Young-kun just sitting them and holding them.

07:05:26 Ja, das ist wahr. Ich denke, Boogie Boarders, ich glaube, das Spiel hat sich in der Nacht geschaffen, ein bisschen. Es war 14 für die Lobby, aber an einem Moment waren es bis zu 9, vielleicht sogar ein bisschen höher als das.

07:05:50 Wir sehen uns im nächsten Mal in der Top 20.

07:06:07 Ja, und ich habe ein bisschen mehr auf VK Gaming gewonnen. Ich glaube, sie hat eine Exzeptionale Placement in der letzten Match, in der 3rd. Es wird interessant zu sehen, wo sie sich in der Leaderboarden sind. Aber Gino, wir haben einen Blick. DREAMFIRE ist auf dem Top! Es war eine 14-Kill-Win für DREAMFIRE. Sie hat ihn auf.

07:06:29 Passed Wonton Dumpling. A first place for this team who, at the start of the split, we said, where have they gone? What has happened to this team that we know is world-class, that we know has the potential to finish, you know, top 10, top 5 out of LAN? Surely they could be crushing through Apex South. And now we are seeing their return to form from Dreamfire. Behind them, Wonton Dumpling, the Ascendant in our scene, picking up a second to mean...

07:06:58 They will be on top of our group standings as we go into the final week and the regional finals in just a week's time, Lays.

07:07:09 Yeah, exactly right. You know, they only needed a 14 point for the series points just to take themselves on top. And we've been watching that closely. I think they already solidified that in match number five. So match number six was just a little extra gravy on top. But you know what? Let's get into what we really care about. What we've been sitting here watching all this time and what teams have solidified themselves a spot in the regional finals. The chance to win Big Genome. Look at that.

07:07:39 VK Gaming! Wir haben sie all den ganzen Tag! Sie haben 50 Punkte gespielt! Das war etwa wo wir gedacht das Cut-Off würde sein!

07:07:49 Und ja, Warmonster Firebird einfach genug zu bekommen. MDY Black, ich bin froh, zu sehen, aber ich glaube, das spricht für die Qualität des Teams über sie. Nein, ich kredite. Obviamente, sie werden ein bisschen bummed werden, aber jetzt kommen wir heute als ein Duo.

07:08:09 Das war wirklich nicht viel Hoffnung für sie zu geben. Total Overclocked Entertainment ist auch wahrscheinlich ein Team, das hat eine Decenten Season, eine Decenten Split, zumindest bei ihren Standards. Also, sie haben die Relegation durch den 21. Wir werden sie wieder in Split 2 sehen.

07:08:32 Yeah, we saw SWQ as well. They were sitting about 18th, which was pretty close to there. And pushing themselves up to 14th was excellent from them as well. And I just wanted to touch on Keep Going Gaming. We didn't really see too much from them today, but managing still to hit that top 20. Elfish, you know, they must have pulled out something crazy in the earlier matches just to keep them above that cusp. Yeah, just kind of hanging in there, which is kind of all you really have to do. I think getting into the top 20.

07:08:58 Obviously, es ist nicht die easieste Sache zu machen, aber in der grand scheme, 20 aus 30 sind zu machen. Also, du hast mehr chances als nicht zu machen. Aber wenn wir in der finalen Lobby kommen, ich meine, was ein Stacked Lobby das zu sein. Es wird ein sehr schweres zu spielen, wenn du vielleicht nicht 100% bist. Ich glaube, X und Y in particular war ein bisschen disappointing.

07:09:22 I'm sure working on that over the course of the week to try to come into the final lobby quite strong. But yeah, especially towards that top end, it's looking really quite competitive. So I've got no idea actually who's going to walk away with the win next week. But I guess that'll be a conversation that we do get into next Sunday. But yeah, it feels like there's quite a few teams actually that you could really throw your hat in the ring with.

07:09:42 Vielen Dank.

07:10:02 Yeah, they're doing well, but if you want to look at, say, first place as Lace, Boogie Boarders actually have the most so far this season. I think, actually, those three teams are probably head and shoulders above the rest at the moment. Wonton Dumpling, Legends Gaming, Boogie Boarders looking extremely strong. If Dreamfire are performing to that level again, maybe you can include them in that conversation. And also Tom Young-Kung, I think if they're playing at their best, will...

07:10:31 So, sie sind definitiv fünf Teams, die ich sehr gut erwartet, um es zu machen, um es zu machen, um es zu machen, um es zu machen.

07:10:44 Yeah, and Team Berger as well, you know, I've spoken about them a lot, did a nice little report on them too. They were very close to being knocked out or, you know, not sitting very high in the teams and I remember speaking to one of them and I was like, you know, what's going on? What do we need to change? And they were, you know, feeling the pressure a little bit and then after that conversation, you know, we watched, I think it was week five, we just watched them turn it around and again, you know, they turn it around this week too. So it's been really cool to see the boys from Team Berger.

Ausblick auf die Regional Finals und mögliche Änderungen

07:11:14

07:11:14 Ja, ich hoffe, dass sie ein Platz bekommen haben. Aber ich hoffe, dass sie ein Platz bekommen haben. Ich fühle mich, dass sie wirklich verdient es. Aber wir haben sie 20 für Apex Legends gemacht. Unsere Team haben einfach viel für sie gemacht. Nicht nur, sie haben die Prize-Score, sie haben die Regional-Finals nächste Woche, sie haben einfach entire changes zu Apex. Aber wir geben ihnen eine extra Woche, um zu können, um die Meta zu machen, und um die Chancen zu machen.

07:11:43 I think without any patch changes, like any actual changes to the game, you're probably still gonna see things persisting.

07:11:55 in a fairly similar vein. But if there's any changes that come through that are going to drastically change things up, you know, maybe a perk gets nerfed or buffed here or there, that could actually make a pretty significant difference. I wonder if maybe they're having a look at Bangalore and seeing a lot of Bangalore around and saying maybe this is not something that we're super, super big fans of. That's a change that could potentially come through. But at least as of now, if no actual changes to the game I made, I don't think things are going to be shaken up all that much.

07:12:22 Yeah, and that's very interesting to see. You know, we've seen some crazy stuff, but let's have a look at all our teams now. We're taking off, you know, about 10 teams and we're going to see what our top 20 will be for next week, Genome, our regional finals. I'm happy VK Gaming just made it in there. Warmonster Firebird made it in there as well. But, you know, all of these teams have done exceptional over the course of Split One.

07:12:45 Ja, also, ich denke, wir haben noch eine Stand-Standung hier. Also, niemand startet mit einen Points. Es geht nicht darum, was die Seedingung war, wo du in die Position gelegt hast. Natürlich wird es umgekehrt, und du wirst noch einen Split-Points in die Regional-Final. So, die wichtigste Sache ist, dass die Team, die das Match-Point-Regional-Final gewinnen, wird eine Ticket zu landen, und dann die nächsten 7 Best-Placing-Teams.

07:13:12 Ja, das ist es. So, ja, wir haben match points.

07:13:16 Bis zum nächsten Mal.

07:13:46 Vielen Dank.

07:14:15 an excellent week and we will see you on the 10th of March for Regional Finals.
