Wow!
I'm going to flip this.
This is not to help me, bro.
Do you want to check it out?
What's that?
Do you want to check it out?
Do you want to check it out?
Here we go.
I won, I won.
I'm finished, bro.
You won?
I didn't find the bomb bro.
We couldn't find the bomb.
Right.
Right?
Yes, right.
Fuck!
I was right.
Right.
Right.
I'm here.
I'm here.
I'm here.
There is one.
Here, here.
Bomb?
Yes, yes.
I'm here.
Go back, go back, go back.
Right, right.
Right, right.
Go back, go back, go back.
I'll let him go, I'll let him go.
Go back, go back, go back.
Go back.
Go back, go back.
What is this?
It's impossible.
You have to go down.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
You have to go down.
You have to go down.
Wait, wait, wait.
Wait, wait, wait.
It's so hard!
It's so hard!
The problem is I don't know the map as well.
It's so hard.
Let's get in!
Join, join, join!
The server is killing us!
They Ancient!
Come on, now!
Come on, on, come on!
What were you thinking?
Come on, on, go!
Watch out!
The server went to the left,
I think I put a stamp on Connector on Mirage, I think. I think I was one of the first
that played a very special way compared to like what you do today. Obviously, it's a
different place than today, but I think I put my stamp on it in the beginning.
I think the difference how you play connected today is more team-wise, you need to be more
support compared to back in days, when like early game stages of the game I think people
are just much better now and like empty strats, studying how you play and stuff like that.
I think when I play there was a bit more to what you want and people were really
surprised and stuff but it was a fun time to play.
I think connected today compared to before, I think you rely a lot on your APR, AWP in your window, short guy, compared to before I would say that it was just the APR that flashed over come from me or something like that.
I think it's a bit more structured today compared to back in days, but you still relied on a few guys, but a bit more strategic today.
This weapon for this spot, I would say. If you don't have a rifle, an AWP, not that I've played a lot of AWPs, but I think this EZ was insanely good in the beginning.
Because you run and hold down your mouse on and suddenly get a triple kill.
I was a bit sceptic when CS2 released with the new smokes and stuff but I had to play with it like for two or three weeks or even more than that.
I think it's really cool that you can do so much with it, like use it in your own favor when you block out ways but you can suddenly throw a H on it and it disappears.
I think you can do so much with it and it's way more funny compared to like you had one ways in CSGO and stuff like that.
one is very much cooler.
I think the new smoke has changed a lot on Connector, I would say.
Like, as a team, I use a block of the whole vision, if you want.
You can smoke up the stairs and see this.
Obviously, they can throw a hitch here to break it,
but I think it's more of a wall now compared to before.
You were always, like, not afraid of peeking it, yeah.
If you're looking out to play in Connector,
I will say, look at them after us.
And also, let's do it.
My map, dust too, is so beautiful when the sun is low.
At nightfall, the Elo harvesters land.
Their cruelty to my people is all I've known.
May thy mouse whip and splatter.
And a double kill, it's all on to Alexi.
Pity.
He's got 19 bullets, everything he needs.
Love you, book.
Does he swing off the name?
You go bang, Alexi, off the name!
They're not human, they're virtual.
Hello everybody, welcome back to another episode of Getting Baked with Rush.
Today I'm joined by Mr. Moses, how are you doing?
I'm great. I'm excited to get baked.
It's gonna be a lot of fun here today.
Excellent. Well, I'm glad because I've prepared
a little American inspired dish for you today.
We're gonna make, what was it?
It's cookies and cream cheesecake cookies.
Ooh, I love that.
Yeah, cookies and cream is my favorite everything.
Milkshakes, what else is there, cookies and cream?
You can make anything like that.
You can do a cheesecake, which is a cookies and cream.
Cookies and cream?
In cream, yes.
Three and a bit of milk, that's good too.
Well, that's perfect then.
So yes, and the main ingredient here,
what we have, we do have some unbranded cookies here.
These are the American variety of cookies.
These are made with an American cookie like this.
I am, I am very familiar with it.
It's amazing.
You know, there's a trip to these
when you throw them in milk,
as soon as they sink, they're ready to go.
As soon as they submerge,
does that absorb the milk?
Yeah, yeah.
Get a little bit heavier.
It's a little salt.
As soon as they dip between that milk line,
they're good to go.
So the ingredients we got here,
we've got some eight tablespoons of butter,
and then we also have some cream cheese,
unbranded as well, some beautiful cream cheese.
There's some beautiful white sugar here.
Perfectly granulated sugar.
We like that a lot.
And then also some flour here as well.
Just, just, we can't stand it easy doing everything.
I think this first step, what we need to do
is combine some of these ingredients.
Jason, if you could, just take this spoon
and get this butter in this bowl.
Hang on, what's that?
There's a few little dots in here,
but that's fine.
It's all gonna be baked in the end.
I think it's the granulated sugar, as you were.
I may be so.
Sprinkle it.
Now let me hold this and get in there as well.
Look at that, oh that's good, yeah.
And then the last step here, we need to put the sugar in.
So we're just gonna, I'll do this one for you,
but we're just gonna drizzle this beautiful white sugar.
And that'll complicate,
is there any strategy to dumping of the sugar?
Just aiming pretty much, like you can do a low down,
but I feel like when you're doing it from high up,
you're aerating the sugar,
you get the flavors of the air.
I'm saying that's for you.
You're really talking about aiming, you know?
Well, I don't do anything because it looks cool,
because it's functional.
That's the key.
Why don't you just get in here
and just get that a little mixed.
Do it the old-fashioned way.
Yeah, just to get it,
posh winged corporate here.
Like those flavors are really gonna combine in there.
Yeah, really combine it with the shirt
or with the fork,
you know, get the prawns in there.
I'm not gonna lie,
I could just probably eat that how it is.
I bet that still tastes pretty good.
You got a spoon right there, Rushers.
All right, it might be time to get our help
of Mr. Blender friend, all right?
You put a bit of lemon zest in that, bro.
Mr. Blender, give that a bloody whisk.
Oh, beautiful.
I can see it getting lower.
I'm fucking scared, man.
All right, that's probably, oh, that's a good save, good save.
That's probably not enough.
I think that,
you got to take me there, too, bro.
Okay, that's enough whisking for now.
We've got this as a nice aerated mixture.
You may not have seen, but we did mix that
for at least about two hours, you know?
So, oh, come on now.
I'm just gonna try it a little bit
because this is like, it's not good for my macros.
How do you take this thing off?
That's a question.
So, the next step, we need to get these into tiny little pieces.
They're very familiar with baggies, I'm sure.
I do know bags, yes?
Yes, yes, the plastic variety.
This is all biodegradable.
What we do, we put all these in here in this little bag,
give it a little twist like that,
and we're gonna pop this here, bro.
And I need you to let out some frustrations
on that thing, bro.
Oh, I'm all about this.
So we're just gonna smack these a little bit.
Look at that.
Yeah, that's good.
Not too much, but a little bit more.
Whoa.
That's a good consistency, bro.
You've done really well.
I think, yeah, you gotta maintain the chunkiness.
Yeah, you can taste it.
Now, what we are gonna quickly do
before we put these in,
is just put the flour into the mixture.
Just solely, gently put that in.
That's beautiful now.
There's a key to all these episodes.
Do you know what happens when you mix flour
with a watery substance?
Create a little bit of gluten, yeah.
Gluten, right, and gluten in baked goods
kind of the enemy especially in cakes but we are dealing with cookies so we
don't need to worry about that as much so if you would like to just give this a
fold okay you know what a fold is you know I like to think so this is looking
good yeah that's a fall that's perfect that's looking beautiful wow honestly I
think at this stage we can put these fantastic cookies in there honestly you
want to do the honors I want you to do the other really okay well you know I
I mean, I will do some work here while my sous chef here.
I am the main chef.
And now I'm just gonna put these in here.
And now we're just gonna mix this in here.
This is looking pretty barbaric, honestly.
It's a-
There's a lot of cookies.
It might be.
It's supposed to serve 12.
Now we don't wanna mix this too much
because I think that chocolate will fully disseminate
in the mixture, which we probably don't want.
So I think honestly, that's looking pretty good.
All right, Jason, I think we need to put this
in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Actually, I can't wait to see what happens after 30 minutes.
Yeah, it's gonna look very different.
Let's get this in the fridge.
Well, I think that was about 30 minutes.
Yes, yeah, that's what I'm about.
About that.
So now we're gonna form these into little balls, Jason.
Okay.
We don't want them too big, so just do one
and I'll let you know if it's looking good.
That's a good amount.
That's a good amount?
I think so.
It might be a little too small,
but I think it's probably fine.
Just under a golf ball size ball here, you know what I'm saying?
And then just give it a look.
Oh, I know exactly what that kind of ball is like.
exactly that same consistency, that's looking good.
So we're gonna fit six on here,
we will have to do a double bake, but ignore that.
And one note about this cookie dough here we've made,
there's actually no eggs in it,
so you could actually just eat this raw,
which is actually also kind of a nice little experiment.
Whoa, bloody hell.
You're getting that close to that mic there.
That's probably really nice right now.
That's good, that's really good.
So we've got one, two, three, four, five.
So what we're gonna do now,
I'm gonna walk these over
and I'm gonna put these in the oven.
How long fall? I don't know, but I know it's 180C, so that's...
When the juke comes out clean.
Yes, for cookies maybe, alright.
Alright, Jason, thanks for the help. I'm going to bang these in the oven.
Anytime, my brother.
Thanks, Jason. Rocking. Experience.
All right, welcome into the studio. Excited to have you here. You've been in broad and
controversy. Stephen Stevens, I should introduce you. PhD, I believe. It's had to have been
a crazy time for you with the way you've been getting attacked.
I mean, yeah, we always. First, thanks for having me on the podcast, Jason. I think
this is such a great opportunity to get my message out into the world. And you're
such a big platform. And I have such an important message. I mean, let's start
with the basics. I think there's one thing we can all agree on. There's no
question here. The map pool has been changing in Counter Strike. There is no
doubt about that. You look over the history of last 10 years of Counter Strike
and Global Offensive, the CS2, the map pool has changed. We're all in agreement.
Now the big question is, and this is where the controversy arrives, is what
has caused this map change? What has caused this cycle? And I call it a
cycle. I think this is just what's going to happen over time to the map
pool. Now the layman, the average person, that someone who hasn't read
my book or done the research is going to say things like oh the devs changed the
map pool the people changed the map pool this is a this is a human cause change
over time whereas I know the truth Jason this is what happens to map pools in
old games it's gonna change over time and it's gonna adapt and it's gonna
come back the way it started after a certain amount of time let's let before
you even ask me a question let's look at these maps right let's look at the
dust twos, the infernos, the mirages. These are maps that were in the map pool
10 years ago and either have returned to the map pool or never left. This is a
cycle and we're going back where we started. Do you have any, do you have any,
before I let you go, do you have any like predictions for what the future
cycle of the map pool is gonna look like? Does your research tell you
anything about what's coming in the next year, maybe two years? I think
maybe we're gonna hit another ice age in some time. We're gonna hit some
some cold weather I think we might get maybe a sub-zero back in the game we
might even get some some of those rainy maps I talked about such as trains such
as cobblestone I think that they could be for our future and I think that could be
positive once we're over this hot arid moment that we're in this moment in
time when we have dust inferno mirage anubis these are very hot maps but
this is not a problem to our map pull this is simply a moment in time it
will change we will go back to cold maps in the future Jason thank you
Thank you so much for having me on.
Another balancing act that I know you guys said it's harder to make intuition plays now,
but those are the rounds that make the difference.
When your player makes an intuition play and gets like a 3K and then it wins a round
that you haven't just won tactically.
Like finding that balance and not, because you see this happen with AWPers a lot.
Like AWPers are going to teams and they'll be like really flashy and like to make aggressive
moves and stuff, but then they get like, they have a couple of bad games where
they're losing those openers and then they really regress.
Maybe they've been told off,
maybe they don't want to continue to be the opening liability
and they don't make plays anymore.
And now it's like, well,
we don't have that guy making the move.
So like being able to walk the delicate balance
between you're allowed to make plays,
it's okay if you fuck up, right?
But like you need to limit it
because sometimes you will lose us games.
Like that feels like a delicate balance.
You're going to have,
you've obviously been doing that at the moment
with Molleroy, right?
Like he's such a fresh face.
Lucky he's been pretty damn good.
But I think the best example for that scenario is Ultimates, only with my pen.
Because Ultimates is very good at those specific plays, specific timings where he's going to go for those entries.
And it did work a lot in the very beginning, because nobody was playing against him.
He was hitting hard, he was hitting hard, he hits the shots, you know.
But then he plays one, shoot three maps on the same map, and then in the other part of being a player is
there is the all-around that you also have to be good at.
You have to be good to just play without any tricks, you know.
If we can only do the tricks then the hour rounds aren't going to be there, so we don't have to find the balance.
And then this guy has Ayo, the hour round master.
You always need the tricks.
Actually, something that you need to work on, that's exactly like we used to call, with Zanik for example,
we said sometimes practice will be boring because we will work on basic stuff, like playing defensive on bomb side.
Now with the new tricks, now with the pick, just a 5v5, because we need to be able to play this round and be good at them.
And that's boring in practice, like I remember in Versigo, back then the meta was to play retake B.
For ten practice in a row, you were playing alone and people were executing the against us.
But we wanted to work on that. And that's annoying.
You don't play on your feelings, you have to do the same stuff, it's robotic, it's annoying.
But then we went super good on Vertigo and won most of the retake because we worked on them.
So yeah, the plays is good, but mostly as IGL, of course you need to trust your teammates.
That's the basic stuff as IGR. You need to trust that sometimes they go for plays, but sometimes at least for me
I tell them no. No, they run as to play together and I don't want any individual because I'm also in the heads.
I have like right now we have the advantage. We dominate so let me take care of that and
maybe
Let's do it later, but not now. So I think this balance
by letting the players do their own, because they need that, but don't let them too much doing it,
because our goal is, as IGL is, our team to play good together, to finish the run, to win the trade,
to finish on the bomb side with good nades, to have a good execute, to finish the run.
What the f***?
We are representing the future.
And our fantasies scare us.
Kevin is passing the plan for three months.
Six months.
How do you even know that?
We need a strong roster.
I'll make you the best and the best.
They won't be afraid of that bastard until they catch him.
And they won't catch him...
until they meet him.
We cat-a-shroth.
Then I'm gonna die.
Jane from a diva!
Are you telling me that if they make playoffs, there's a chance it could destroy the entire crowd?
Now I am become good destroyer of crowds
All right, all right, let's do this.
And that's what it is!
Acer Team!
We don't know who's going to be sent down!
The lane is a perfect end!
This is madness!
DHL.
Soap.
And Jax.
It is the penultimate day of Sage 2 at ESL Polyleague in its 23rd season.
Some teams will rise, some teams will fall.
But these guys, they've got it all.
Because we have Harry and Hugo back on the morning shift.
You're gonna make your bunch fun.
Bunch fun.
Finally, an injection of fun.
Welcome to the cursed shift.
Everything that can go wrong will go wrong.
You've had three maps, you've had all the over times.
We're here to enjoy that all with you.
I mean, the tech delay yesterday benefited me massively.
Okay, rank up.
Could you?
Yeah, I got my rank up and you taught me some days,
but we didn't get to use.
Are you going to be able to throw them again today?
Oh, pop quiz.
Is there is a pop quiz coming later on
during our inevitable tech film?
Yeah, we'll take you to the United States.
You can't remember.
Nice to get there.
This time we're playing 2v2 and me and Harrier are on opposite teams.
Just like to see Crumble.
He just crumbles.
I didn't know that.
You know, he whipped that Deagle out.
Like, I don't even use rifles against him anymore.
Dude, I didn't know you ain't care when we played first aid.
You were yelling some things my way,
because I feel like I was actually...
This would be on camera, right?
Yes.
Yeah, I care about Crumble.
Yeah, that's fair.
He's already revolver felt pretty good this morning actually. Yeah. Yeah, the R8 looks pretty so dude
There's nothing stronger for me. I'm a negative tech nine mate. I love it. I miss
It's kind of fun
I just needed to shoot Harry for a little bit to warm up for the day. I feel much better
I feel good after that nice little peaceful drive over, you know
We've got a game
Yeah, yippee game. I love a crossword puzzle and I love it even more when it incorporates a housekeeping
So we don't have to do the housekeeping. Okay. No, I mean you just put the thing on the door
Bro in Romania still came is like, oh, I said, you know see the do not disturb sign. I thought you forgot to take it off
After yesterday, it's like, oh, I did not you're waking me up two days in a row. What's the point of this thing?
I think it's really sweet. She keeps offering me towels every day
You love a fresh towel.
We can kind of do this in any order but
preferably we go one, two, three, four, five.
So, just one with my disability.
I'm just going to get a little closer so I can play.
How did you start with this?
You won't preferably to start
who's been on a team for 3,000 days.
A man?
That's nine years.
Good afternoon, this is your producer speaking.
I'm just going to lay a few ground rules to remember.
Speak clearly and make a final answer.
clearly and make your final answers clear. Please attend the answers in order one to nine
unless you get extremely stuck.
Doesn't defray her. She's the boss and thank you for joining us on the contract network.
We hope you have a pleasant show.
It's a Swedish captain.
Yeah.
I like the little sound effect.
Yeah.
It's a cool bell.
It's a cool bell.
Okay. I mean, we don't have to go one. That is a bit unfair. Didn't actually
look at the numbers.
Sorry, CFL sign is on if you could sit back in your seat and wait, no smoking either please.
Oh, okay.
Alright, we're back. Yeah, okay, let's not do number one then.
Well, I mean, if you get number one, everything else will be so much easier, right?
Three thousand days?
There was a post on the other day somewhere about like which players were on which team the longest, blah, blah, blah.
Some of them are surprising.
So, like, is Loki is like top five, which is kind of wild to me.
Because it depends on just counting continuous.
Yeah, is it consecutive?
I mean, I've got to guess immediately, but it's like firstly, are they at pro leagues?
Yeah, it's at pro leagues.
Oh, okay, no, I don't know.
It's all to do.
Oh, wait, which one is it?
It's one down.
So it's one, two, three, four, five, six, long.
Six.
Long.
So a name that's six characters.
It's not breaky.
Wait, let me look at one.
It's not a leash.
It's not a leash.
We need longer letters.
Think about it.
Wait, so this can be a player that's been on the org before,
before and then came back and then...
I'm pretty sure it was the whole time.
Yeah, he has been there the whole time.
The whole time? Oh, I got it.
Yeah. Maybe.
Yeah, go on. Go on.
Share with the class.
I have two more letters.
That and our fly.
I was going to say K. Serato.
He's been out for your ears.
Close.
Yeah.
Very close.
Yuri.
Yuri.
There we go.
Look it in.
It's indeed Yuri.
One of the fans.
How we feel about furia right now?
They are in the mud, as some say.
I mean, I think it's hard.
It's hard to be motivated to qualify to the finals when you know you're going to
essentially fly to Stockholm and lose the quarterfinal because you're playing
with your coach, no disrespect to Sid.
That is the reality.
We are rooting for their demise in this tournament.
Yeah, we kind of don't want them in the playoffs.
Because we don't want them in the playoffs.
We don't want to see Sid.
No offense.
No, I don't want to sit there and say, oh, well, they have their
course.
So what can you say?
But you never know.
Molo, though, you can pop off.
She's like, just stay at home, guys.
Just have an extra week.
just integrate the sun in Malta, you know, have a good one.
That's fine. Don't lose to pain, but lose to like G2 tomorrow.
OK, OK, make it a competitive one.
OK, zero down zero to zero.
Yeah, the clues in the in the clue.
Heroic. Yeah, heroic.
There we go.
Deadnav, of course. That's kind of sad.
They had a good run, but I did want a little bit more, maybe.
They have a great team atmosphere, you know, good job team.
Let's go team is so good team like you don't hear that ever. Oh three down. I think I've got it rolling rolling
Yes, loved this quote from Henry. Well, it'll take like that
And he was pretty good. Yeah
For a while as well. That's yeah, it's been good for a while in that position. Nice to watch
No, it's something to go with the next one now
He's gonna play in front of his home crowd in Sweden another crowd. That's will cheer against miles
You're surely not. Come on, come on, guys.
Last time? This is the one.
Last time, Brolin was in a tier one arena in Sweden.
He took the trophy at DreamHack Malmo 2019,
playing with Fnatic Nip.
Fnatic Nip, one of them.
Fnatic. Fnatic.
Who is Fnatic? Who is Fnatic?
Golden, J.W., Cribs the Boys.
Back when being an IGL was still just a dream of his.
Been a dream all his career, allegedly.
We've never been so happy that a player won a clutch in our lives.
Let's go, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, roll it, roll it.
Roll it, let everyone guess. Jesus Christ.
Roll four across, please.
Kind of spoiled it now.
Oh, who's the clutch?
It could be anybody. I say it with me.
Clutch.
No, no, no, no. It was a good bet.
How did it happen?
I kind of feel like we're trying to manifest it.
We were praying.
Yeah, you were hoping for the two of us.
Yeah, very long. Yeah, and it's like little man up on the bin. It's a good move, man. He turned into twists for around. Yeah, awesome.
And then it was funny. I listened to it on the shuttle back. You can hear the genuine joy in everyone.
The world's longest 2-0 in the history. I was never disexcited for a Falcons game. I'll tell you that.
I think it was very exciting. I love that one. Let's say the answer all the newness and it was
Yeah, I'm going up against the Stralis today. You wish them. Well the battle for the show
in the show GL hook scene.
Oh, true.
That should be fun, man.
What is it?
Not prison.
Oh, Harry.
Oh, we've got another save what you see around.
A cross.
Can we play five across?
Whose ace was this?
Nice little ace.
Which one?
That's his ace.
Yeah, that is a lot of letters.
He's this.
OK.
Oh, I know who this is.
It's that guy.
Yeah.
From Na'Vi.
Yeah.
Yeah.
to be right zero in his name number five in the game wonderful it is wonderful
oh is this fair that's actually you're right this is the fair as if that made
it on reddit how sick is that oh that's all my bucket list you can genuinely say
you got an ace up pro league against 5k he though probably yeah I don't talk to
I've got a lot of you know, it's fair and don't break it up. I guess in triple digit you know, I've never seen
Like it's in like
9800 yeah, yeah, I didn't know when that low
I'm so curious I just want to watch yeah
Like a level to one face it or something for a while. I thought that also doesn't exist
So that everyone starts at level 5, so no one feels like they're the worst, but some people are actually the worst.
There's an account I found on Face that someone linked to me, I don't know where, and he has like 13,000 matches, and he's like 100 elo.
He plays 10 games a day, every day for a decade, and he loses all of them.
And he is genuinely maybe the worst player of all time.
I should go one
That's you that up. Yeah, who is the worst player of all time? I respect still playing at that point
I would have found a hobby for now the worst pro it's tight before between cursing killed
Okay, okay. I feel like you don't know how possible that is
This guy plays 10 games a day and he's he's the worst the worst player
Uh, Na'Vi versus...
Yeah, shout out to that guy one time.
Uh, who's gonna win? Alex, Boydumau or Carby?
No, that's gotta be Dumau.
Oh, bring it back up.
Right, this is meant to contextualise.
Oh, okay.
I think this is meant to be a vessel for the house keeping.
It's not a fucking speed run.
I'm just gonna put the cross.
A vessel? Love that.
Yeah, it is meant to be that.
Right, what have we got?
Six down.
Oh, it's another picture round.
Spoilers.
Who is this?
It's a D.
Probably Don.
Let's see what it is. It's done. Yeah, we know some crazy dude. Look at this. It's so smooth
Oh
Oh, the lawnmower to quote dark like donk
That's a great quote
Did you guys do the dog Vader stuff yesterday? Did you get any good quotes for that guy's video?
Did you get the mail bag thing? What's this? Oh, yeah, don't clear don't smoke. He sent me a message in and it was like
Hey castles could you do like a thing for Donk Vader like I'm gonna do it?
Oh, I was in the mail bag. I guess it was serious business. We got told, you know save it for the gut for the G you guys
Oh, we were locked off smoking didn't get his quote. We can do it again. Yeah, he's just whatever they play
Yeah, he's open for a line for his meat. So he's making a Darth Vader donkvader kind of thing. He's needs like a
Darth Vader quote. No, I was think I've been thinking about it. The only time your father exactly. He is their father
Yes, I'm the workshop in it, but I just wanted you know to get the juices flowing so we can have something
Yeah, do you still need a yeah? Oh guys, okay? It was the first attempt. I like do you try that?
You're was all right. It was this one. It was true. Yeah, I was troll. He's their daddy's like
Yeah, cool or tired
Spirit made it to playoffs though. Yeah
Yeah, good for them right three more three hours versus spirit final. What are we saying?
Everybody's saying everybody's saying right. Okay. This is a little country one little geography
reference. No players from this. America.
Good idea. Not the correct answer.
America.
You got eliminated just today.
You got one of the teams that got eliminated
where there's a bit of representation, you know?
England.
England.
Britain.
England.
England.
England.
England.
England.
England.
England.
England.
England.
England.
England.
England.
I think they had a good, you know, they made they had a good pro league.
Can be happy with the pro league they had.
Yeah, it'd be good teams like energy.
Heroic,
Haravision, Haravision, that's legit.
Yeah, had to come up off of Navi close series against FaZe yesterday.
It was a close game.
The two Brits did lose that close character.
So I've been messy, crossed out like he also is like no longer here.
You can put Smooya as well, like on the graphic, it's not anywhere close to making it, but also a UK player that's not here.
I think he was having a great break, he was just streaming LEGO building last night.
I watched that one.
What was he building?
I don't know.
I think it was HOTB.
You guys were in perfect sync.
Adents on that?
Vitality, time to practice again.
The dude streaming making LEGOs, the break is too long.
It's having too much fun.
It's not allowed.
two more two more eight cost is headshot machine v2 oh he's been getting a lot
of headshots okay Jacob obviously that's what they say from face it's not
Jacob there's two bees it's not that's where is and
6 letters R
It's not demon
No!
It's long right?
Let's hit a lot of headshots though
One of the most surprising letters to be starting with
What letter do you often use?
Second opposite, Karrigan
I mean...
Kanigur
What letters do we use? X
Why? X
Zantares
Yeah Zantares, there we go
That was a good clue!
I haven't seen it before
It's true
But, PG2 later. That's fun.
That is fun.
Yeah, that's a game that both teams feel like they should win.
They should.
Not only one can.
Wow.
That's a hard thing, and now I see what I'm looking for.
This is like, it feels like the Internet.
Like Sunday boxes.
Yeah, they both think they can win, but only one can.
This Sunday, Sunday, Sunday.
I could see it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I like this.
Okay, final clue.
Or final prompt.
Yeah, what's the last one?
Well, what happened?
I was rated player as of right now, I already know.
It's Young Spink.
Who selects him and I'll do a check.
Me?
I'm the money.
Over Donk.
Over Donk.
Yeah, good times.
I got Donk and I lost.
Not yet.
Well, actually yes.
Someone could come from behind and beat both of them.
Like you now.
Like wonderful.
This Sunday, Sunday.
Someone's coming from behind.
There he is.
Look, he's hanging out with the guys.
He's number 10.
Hey, that's not bad for him.
No, it's not.
I could feel it.
How did you meet them?
I told him.
Sumpias number four.
Oh.
I'm hearing game almost ready to go.
Yeah.
Oh, chat.
Is this real?
Maybe.
I mean, we can see them all.
We can see them all right now.
Getting ready.
How do you feel about this one, Janko?
I have no strong feelings about this particular game, Preya.
I'm always excited to see the Mongols do more of what they're really good at,
shoot people in the head and make playoffs.
Yeah.
3D Max, they're like a box of chocolates.
You never know what you're going to get.
True.
Unless you ordered just one chocolate.
One thing that's going strong for 3D Max in this one is their permaband is Mirage,
which is Mongols' favorite map, so Mongols go for Ancient, but still the pool is fine for both teams,
especially the Mongols that get Inferno in there, which is probably their third favorite map.
But Dust2 again in play, it is a weakness for the Mongols, despite their previous win against Harry.
Who did they beat on Dust2 recently?
I don't know.
Aurora?
There you go.
Thank you, Hugo. That's why he's the brains.
We're going in gents. I'm going out. See you. No, Freya hang out for a day. These days.
One of these days. You'll see. You'll see one day. All right, Mongol 3D Max playoffs on
the line. 3D Max was in breach of playoffs here at ESL Pro League. Really ominous note
to leave on. Yeah. You'll all see. You'll see. I'll be back. Freya's great though.
It's true.
Why is it making it all good?
Yeah, I don't know.
Even though it's not international on this day,
I think she should be celebrated.
Yeah, here you go, Alex.
Good save.
Janko saved me.
Swamps, going crazy.
3D Max, bring in pace.
We are going to have some fast rounds in this game for sure.
3D 2 bomb is not going down quickly,
but Tobias Zero doesn't let him get off the site.
Sans who?
What's wrong?
Let's get more of that, please.
How do you say kota in mongolian don't do that. I'm joking
We've already done that once in it. It's pretty good
It's pretty good. You don't know Yankee speak some of Goliath. No, I've heard this. It's good. It's a good story. It's a strong bit
With the one on yeah
Exactly, so I'm up in new material. Yes. He has a cock chair in the back
Dude, he is in the most if he's in a finest establishment. No, it's man. He's a castle in France. Haven't done this game
Oh, I haven't seen it. It's pronounced a shatter
Vastian debuthers there dude. I
Kind of want that life French castle. Are you always boss? I did. Yeah, I nearly bought one
It would be like kind of safe to say come on. It's not stopped you in the end
Brexit
Was what stopped me why
Moving suddenly became really hard
More paperwork and a lot more paperwork like getting the mortgage for it. Just a nightmare
title France
There was a couple I was looking at like bro
You can get a castle in France with a couple of acres for like 100,000 euro. It's kind of absurd way
You keep an egg. It's a fun little life hack. You have a hundred grand flying around
Good move to France
Everybody's doing it
No stress really in that round for the CTs, they lose three people though.
It's the Mongols, you know, they're fine. They'll just come and win a flawless first
gun round. They like to learn a little bit on the edge.
Counter-terrorists win.
What a room.
The LED keyboard doesn't really fit the wallpaper.
Well you think you should get a wooden one.
Really right. They're from Etsy, you know.
A typewriter.
Made from authentic maple.
typewriter he could he could be the first
oh hot he's in there yeah getting close it bring us in further
better for the aesthetic you know you said the keyboard is ruining it
they've cut it out the frame why doesn't all put peak like that on your
crap are you playing for the jump spot like all the boosts
oh he's got a keep the dynamic you know
everyone long the start of the flawless turn around has begun
I told you, let's find out. There's no other yet.
It's over.
And I will repeat what I said in the Aurora game.
Mongols, the issue comes on the T side for them mostly, on this map, right?
So CT side, they actually can rack up rounds and they sort of have to
if they are going to have a chance of stealing dust too.
Not bad.
On our way to this flawless round.
You can have a little goose flash ready to go in.
And now you've been blocked. What's it gonna be, 3D Mags?
I blocked you on short, and now you're going to die.
That's good. That's a nice one.
There's even a good rendition of the voice, Alex.
Thank you.
Oh! Whoa! Whoa, Mama!
Clean!
Spinal bullets!
It's like when you start spraying in a headshot only death match.
This is the shit.
It's headshot.
Floorless still.
Everything's going to be fine.
There's no way Enko called this to a T.
Oh, but you know, both fights are nice.
I don't know.
I just...
They actually are, aren't they?
It's a floorless round.
Way to... way to...
Oh.
Oh, no, you bloody got him done it.
And now they're all going to die.
Oh, you've done.
That's what it's doing.
Oh.
Wait, wait, wait a second, brah!
Oh, no!
You've bloody got him done it.
And now they're all gonna die.
What have you done?
That's normal things.
Just wanted to fight.
Yeah, that's self-sabotage.
It could have been flawless.
Yeah, I think we countered.
Until the last 15 seconds of the round it was flawless and if my grandma had wheels she'd
be a bike.
That was good.
One tap and a pause from 3D Max and money is cooked.
We say if my grandma had balls she'd be my grandpa.
No, you just had to say, oh, dude, the Saiyans are just better, man, I told you, hey, man,
if a donkey is stuck in the mud, you just have to, you just have to, you know, some
people say see is the day, some people say if a donkey is stuck in the mud, yeah, make
Lemonade.
OK.
Shovel the Devil.
Shovel of the Devil.
Counter-Strike is the game and 3-0 is the score line.
First map, day.
Anyone counting days these days?
What day of Pro League is this?
Is it really only the start of the day?
It's day 9.
Day 9.
Close enough.
I was in...
I was going to say this.
Some was the day the bucket had arrived.
OK.
It's day 9.
Here at Pro League, 23 seasons deep.
Denial, everyone's favourite stage.
River.
And river.
You know Cleopatra was closer to the iPhone than the dinosaurs or something?
Oh yeah, that one.
I'm just kidding, but I think it's the...
Henry's gone but his spiritual successor lives on.
Oh, that's Naut.
See a little piggy too.
Oh, he does it, but never really get him.
We get a good snort out of him.
He gets very embarrassed.
Yeah, I don't like him.
I love it.
You'll wear it.
Sharp, don't you know some gaming?
Not any more, I should have said it's not that.
Nope.
Dead, man.
You are dead.
Of course.
I respect the fact that he didn't even
try to get out of it.
This is fine.
The captain solemnly going down with his ship.
Oh my god, it's the infamous Mongols double off setup.
What can go wrong?
Senzu gone?
Watch 3D Max now try and do their full B execute that everyone loves.
Kappa Zero's gonna bench himself next week and say,
I want to be an orphan now.
And I'm burnt out.
So then you could learn the 3D Max B execute and then teach me,
because I couldn't be bothered to promise, but I want to learn it.
You know, like the one they've got with the perfect flashes, Larry?
I don't know exactly what they throw at me,
Me and Harry and Chad have been going over our B flashes. We've got some good ones.
You have?
I don't know if it's necessarily the 3D Max.
The 3D Max just fell out.
They're getting the device flashes.
I think that it's something, but it's not from the device flash spot.
Okay.
I just like that they...
Oop!
It's like that they layer like...
I can teach you that one, Alec.
Just, you know...
They layer like, obvious flashes.
What's he lining up?
Is that going to be the cross smoke from way back?
Wayne downtown? Yeah.
the perk of this being it's quicker and you don't have to be have short
control to do it just execute as it's falling down right well that's not it
isn't bungled lucky or lucky it's all a fake they go mid to be and they get the
double entry it's only cobra they know he's home which orb do you want to face
Hmm
Honestly that line of smoke has got a more weirded out like you could be walking through it
910 is yeah, he is freaked out by this util
Don't get past it no skin on the Cobra's arrow or horrified
And to be honest 910 should rifle
You guys seen the 910 right?
It was really nice.
And then he started AWPing and they lost.
He was like triple entering, B Inferno, every round and then he'd kill their AWPer, he'd
save their AWPer and then sit around and do it.
We had no Mara at the start of that event and so like 910 was just doing the maddest
shit all on his own and then Mara showed up and 910 became a whole different player.
Yes, sir.
How high, sir?
It was actually fun seeing Blitz without Mara, they're like rain in the air.
Yeah bro, they didn't take a single pause, they didn't play a slow round.
Every round was just as quick as humanly possible.
They were facing elimination of course.
Yeah.
So that little top blocks the flashes as well.
Indeed.
That's so smart.
People start coming up with new flashes like that.
That's so good.
Nothing.
Still didn't help.
help. No, but I mean, I saw this movie before. What's what? What is a country for Mongols
and an A cheat on another player? It's going to be a five E two and then Mongols will lose
three guns chasing them. Okay, optimistic to expect anything here on short. Mac is
just waiting. Up cat they go. Kobuzera he's getting very angsty in middle. High risk remover.
He is weakened. Oblit's cool for support. Smoke molly down.
Could buy a few more seconds. We smoke out there. It's the peek in mid 910 low.
They're just gonna go short now. They know the AWP is not on 8.
Good luck.
Not the fight. Not the fight for the weapon.
5-7 just does some damage, they should have that bomb planted.
Tekken is gonna get caught by this lurk. Who is that cheeky bean in the smoke?
Exorcists planning on a little later rival. Keeping short safe.
And the headshots just keep coming. Okay, we are just fighting. We are just fighting, Adam!
Good, good, good, good. Plant the bomb, I think. Mac has decided that's a good idea.
I think for Blitz, he wants to block, but it wasn't really the situation for him to do
that, especially as a 5'7", should have just used that smoke in between the sidebox
and the wall and just play behind it, play to buy time.
in that situation, even if he's able to just stay alive for a little while, keep 3D max
occupied by his time for his teammates to come in, support with the rifles.
Yeah, you drew my attention to that on Dust2, it was a B-take where a player just underhanded
a smoke and did live for like 20 seconds, you know, you haven't even taken fives necessarily,
you're just annoying and alive.
Yeah, it was Rain Raker yesterday.
That's right.
I think those defensive smokes are really good against full executes, right?
because the T's are counting on a certain scenario with all the utility that they're using and
then you ruin their plans with the defensive smoke because all of a sudden they can't push
us forward and you actually interrupt their scaling because they want to scale with the
flashes falling behind but they cannot get as deep into the bomb side because you throw
smoke in the open and it's harder for them to get rid of you.
I've even seen people do that like default box mirage, you know, kind of scuttle one
forward and it makes things awkward for the scaling.
There was a lot more common in CS go, it feels like in CS 2.
Where's he going?
So, 9-10, with a saved AWP pushing middle and losing his head.
The Suta found himself up a quick double kill, chilling.
Had another one.
Could have been the ace, but it's denied.
Where is his team?
Team running A. See ya.
At least they've recycled and they got an AK, so if anything, you know, you've kind of doubled and given to the next person.
Nice job.
This is crazy.
He's a madman.
What's he doing?
I mean, you don't know his next move, you know?
That's the Grand Master in him or the Master.
I think it was him.
International Master, I think that's what they call it.
Fee Day.
Every single term you know about chess.
That's just something that's going to say.
Checkmate.
Fee and Keta.
That's his favourite move.
That's definitely not Sicilian Define.
And he castled it sometimes as well.
D4, D4, the Rook, the Rook is on fire.
The Rook.
This Rook's on fire.
Your pawns are terrified.
This or this can't.
Moves in a diagonal way, I know that too.
Let's all play chess.
We have a board.
We should pick it up right now.
Yeah, I thought I'd see me with my grade from chess to connect four for the upstairs.
It's an upgrade.
Yeah.
Is J-Raz undefeated still?
He was still undefeated.
Still?
Hugo, you're a smart man. You think you could win a Game of Connect 4?
I mean, I didn't know he was undefeated.
He's undefeated.
I'll give it a go.
Of course he's undefeated. He's playing Rush all the time.
And MC.
I sat next to a dude on a plane who said that he was like entering Connect 4 tournaments
and he was showing me like different openers and stuff.
And it was crazy. I didn't realize that there was some like deep lore on the depth to it.
There is.
He really good.
could not come close I guess it's like yeah I played him in like 15 it was a
two-hour flight the entire time we were just playing Connect 4 and he was
insane bro how well how how is it so I guess it is just like you learn the
pattern like he would go back and like tell me the mistakes I made on what turn
he's like one here you shouldn't have done that they gave me three options
I I don't know like you got the brain for what was this fun for you though?
It was fun because I felt like I was learning but I think I learned anything because I can't recall any of it
And I lost every game
Sounds like a great ad for noise canceling headsets
Good pick up
I'm 10
They are just fighting, aren't they?
I mean, they put these two teams in a server, I guess that makes sense.
You're just going to see brawls.
What else could you expect?
It does look like that technical forkage you all has given them that two-man advantage
that things are going to peter on out now.
You're trying to exit the tons.
the tons, Mazine, oh, Mazine, Mazine's fine.
Oh, got it.
We'll eventually get the frag.
They're not going anywhere.
Oh well.
So Kinect 4 probably has the same depth as chess.
I do want to know.
Do you want to change, Jay, now?
Yeah.
See, like, I'm not claiming to,
I know the rules.
It's kind of like chess.
I know the rules.
Now the piece has moved.
That's about like, how good can you really be
connect four that's what I'm saying it's got a connect for it yeah it's kind of
the rules could they win any more the game no okay
sailing sailing it'll be execute man yeah Alex really wants to see it I do I
think this one person does the door smoke and the other person does the
first two flashes and then the door smoker does the second two flashes and it
was just like every time we cut to the car player the car player was full
white as the guy's swinging like perfect timing
I'll go up continues. I'll just keep buying it.
Let's fight mid. Something different. Yeah, you said that.
A little mid-biff. Cobra is not scared at all. Here comes
door smoke does he have a HE? He does.
Oh, they missed that.
Yep, and you might die.
They missed it again, multiple time, different line up, and they missed it.
Little bit awkward.
It's not good luck, it's from that bit as well.
Once it's lucky, you threw it. He doesn't have a smoke.
Let's say it is.
It's the bad day for you to help a lot.
Through him or Mark or Xerces, right? Like, we have a 33% chance of being out.
One in three, recurring, of course.
So you know he gets to play the game now?
Ooh.
Love that for him.
Alright Lucky.
How's he in that moment?
How's he going to fuck this up?
Let's see.
Oh wait, I think, alright.
Okay, nothing in the name meant nothing.
And jump throw?
Don't full blind them all Lucky.
Hey, not through, he's nailed it.
Oh, there's the opener, don't get long.
Oh.
Oh, mhm, baited.
Not meant to win this, so, yep, 3D Max keep running.
Smoke down.
Techno.
Up and over.
Up, maybe over.
On the cross, but the nade lands too short.
Techno's for blind. He is done for.
Save.
I think it's 9-10s already kinda there.
There's no reason to hesitate to play first, you know, because 9-10 can have his contact
for the most part.
And then even Blitz, I'm not sure I didn't pay attention to Blitz had a flash, but if
he had a flash, or if 9-10 had a flash, they could have just played after that.
But yeah, also nice entry from Xerces.
The 9-10 peeks into the angle and now broke double orbs don't come for free as the same goes
or anyone put on otherwise you buy two you get both basic deal I do
You get them free!
Wait, we have two players who miss smokes there.
One in T-Spawn.
And the door's missed.
I was imagining a world with free ops.
A different game, wouldn't it?
Ongos would be the best team in the world.
The entire roster gets them every round.
We have a five warp round instead of a pistol round.
That's high.
No armor.
We call that the Norbert's, I think.
And an orb.
That's the sports player in history.
It's true.
Where is he now?
On Hot2. On Hot2.
He is the... coming into this event.
He was the... oh no, this is actually...
No, sorry.
Okay.
I mean, he was the highest rated player of the year.
But that was with, like,
more than 50 maps.
That's how all of Tier 1 is.
Someone, like, did this post and then
I checked the filters, I'm like, now you've just excluded every tier one of that.
Hey, man, statistics, they're kind of like bikinis, in a way.
They cover up all the good bits?
Yeah.
Ooh, I think you're right.
Take note.
Five-seven up close.
He has vision, and not anymore.
Yep, that's the end of the round.
One last, one last.
How is he here?
He's not begun from the job, but...
It's a good thing that job can make it work.
What? The flash is so close!
How does that not fall blind through you?
And Tango does shades on.
Oh my god they're in the region.
Here they come.
In they go. Lucky.
Lucky.
And wow what a reed paper.
Three in the tunnels as quick as 3D bags arrive to the tunnels.
How does that flash do nothing?
I think it just fell right next to him.
It kind of popped like just behind his shoulder.
In between his legs.
Whoa! I mean that, the open is crazy.
You're right though, it did look like it landed at his feet.
I just thought we'd get him.
Kind of crazy round to lose for 3D Max, you felt like you did the hard part.
That wasn't too much fun.
That was a B-pop, were we paying attention?
No we weren't.
I didn't see what they threw.
And the car player had vision, so maybe it wasn't as good as I thought it was.
both car players yeah well maybe it wasn't you're maybe lucky was throwing
the flash it's
and towards long it's time I'm gonna say not hanging around a fire in the
Zinho did give it his thought.
It crossed his mind.
There are a lot of bodies there!
Good flash work.
Perkzera does do some significant damage to Mack. They made my finish off the job. Yeah, nice play. Paul's in bag.
Exes sees lingers. He's gonna potentially make a play. No one's looking
If he dies on this the round is back on but he might find both eyes back turn lucky's crash lucky drop from the server
Suddenly a 2v2 this bank is a necessity
Exercise gets them both and so the crash matters not a sigh of relief
As things were going very wrong that long smoke land too deep as well like there was a huge gap on it
No one's hitting it. Oh
Everything you max are missing, if we need.
It's a funk, you know, it's that morning CS, you know,
you're like, takes your half,
start getting the line up right.
Just a slow start, everything will be fine.
I like this though, every round's a buy.
Yeah.
Yeah, true, actually.
You know, I know that eco stuff.
I also like that wherever the first fight take place,
that's where all the remaining nine fights take place.
Like it is insane.
There's no faking in this game, none of that shit bro, just get straight to the round
B and one all lost and then go next.
Ancient is going to be fun, I think.
Lucky checking his settings, because he can't be missing all these smokes, it's not his
fault.
That's funky.
That's your word of the day, funky, yeah.
Yeah, I think so, I'm going to die.
You're going to shoot me?
No, I'm going to die.
Hey, guys, hey!
Watch out!
Everyone's gaming with the windows open,
and that's like freaking me out,
like the blinds open rather.
Yeah, I mean, well, not everyone.
Some people in pure darkness, you know,
some players from stage one,
also just an avoid.
Go back to exercise cam.
Is it is it nighttime?
No, it's a
No, it's a
It's a blind
I call it's how to call those things in
flaps
shut up
That's it.
Yeah,
I'm
shut up.
You don't call them that.
Okay, close the flaps with your love.
There you go.
That's one of the half here.
We've got one rifle
Over the mongols. So many opportunities to miss smokes here for 3DMAX.
So captain Alex to the female first officer.
Oh, stop it!
Oh no, come back.
Oh, exactly, right in.
Okay, the eagle for one.
But, Molly, you're going to displace the site players.
It looks good for 3DMAX here.
No way you'll lose this. 4v2.
Correct.
I'm just going to google it, see what this is.
I've lost my phone, it's gone forever.
Left in the lobby.
That might be it, 3D Max, levelling the playing field, the 6x6 on the half and even game,
an exciting game and more of that after the break, because we're getting crazy here
on Dust2.
Alex found it!
Welcome back everybody we're getting ourselves into the second half it is
is the ninth day?
Yes, we checked.
It is the ninth day of Froli.
We keep on coming.
The counter strike, the penultimate day of stage two.
That's what Freya said, so that must be true.
Where does pen come from?
Pen.
Yeah, like penultimate.
What does pen stand for?
It must be one of those like Latin things, you know,
like con and pen.
Hugo, you know some Latin.
Yeah, but I don't know the answer to that question.
OK.
But I'll find out for you, Janko.
I'll stop googling flaps, and I'll
start looking for answers.
What does Pan mean?
Oh, did you hear like, you know how we were talking the other day about like these stupid
like measurements and stuff that UK people have stone as a measurement of weight?
Yeah, yeah.
Then someone said, I think, Dinko said, I think, or Alex, I think there's like a physical
stone in the museum somewhere that was like these stones.
The stone.
Right?
So Dinko was, I'm gonna check that.
So Dinko just put in Google search, where is the stone?
I kid you not.
I was watching here and I said, Dinko, I just lost so much respect for you.
Where is the stone?
No, of course not.
Okay, well, I was about to shot.
There is the stone.
One true stone.
To weigh them all.
If King Arthur had a smartphone, first Google, mold them all to be like...
So, Pen, I found an answer for you, let's see what the pistol does first.
Anything interesting now?
I get it, I get it.
at the start of an ultimate so it's from the latin prefix pain which means almost or nearly
it's spelled P-A-E-N-E-A
got like a kind of portuguese
you say that again
it means almost or nearly
another spelling
P-A-E-N-E
okay
pen name
i'll have the pen name please
i'm the ultimate pen name
i'll have the almost pesto thank you
it's green
I can't believe it's not Pesto.
Green in the face after this one.
They walked into B.
Are they going A?
Yeah, they have B.
But they want A more.
Oh, shit.
You're going to regret that one.
You got a T-Style.
B was clear.
What?
You got so trapped.
The grass is always greener on the other bomb site.
They really wanted A.
I don't see him. Maybe he's just his PC is somewhere else. Yeah, maybe
Because we saw him talking on the graphic during the time now, so he's he's on TS
Maybe he's not hanging out
Missou just look good in these couple of games. Anyone got a take?
I think Missou is look good in these couple of games. That's a good thing. It's a good take. That's my take
I think he's kind of like a modern-day Kyojin
Well, you know
Would explain the misnades talk about the backhand compliment
No, that was just that was the opposite of compliment. I think yeah, it was a joke. That's what it was aiming
We're back in now they're gonna take an economical just a real respectful full eco
They just want the one doesn't eagle he's always one he's got the money. There's always one
Well, I allow it's not 1300 eagle into the Kevlar AK. Not a great feeling
Oh cobra doing his best face time impression
There's no friends to play with
He's boarded out to them
He's floating. Yeah, play with you won't want to play you cannot meant to be
if you put it in in a smoke and then if someone walks through the smoke they'll
kick the ball so you know they're in there and if you fire the Zeus and you
drop it in a corner later in the round it goes zoom and then someone will look
there good idea genius no one's doing these things enough that would work
it's just like you can't plan for it right like back in the CS go days you
could stop doors from opening with a decoy that was cool good stuck in the
hinge. I remember when we played the like early release of CS2, decoys would when they
explode they blow up doors and I was like actually it's kind of cool that they
removed it. Fair enough. Bit weird. Bit weird but could be yeah it has a use case.
Like you throw a decoy down like you're down nuke B. Yeah. Just throw a decoy
double doors then you synchronize the explosion of the doors with the top like
breaking the glass or something or something you know I'm saying yeah and I
felt like added a huge layer of flexing in the air sinking yeah you could just
remember the exact moment you threw it how long they're doing the gizmy
Oh God, you're gonna get caught doing this.
It's not a great look.
I could have done it at the start of the round, but why not?
Alright, time to go B-mongers.
B is empty, so no could walk in.
Time to get that B-side too.
You want both of them before you plant the bomb.
Three of them saved, they just went back into B with two plants.
Oh, they're gamble stacking.
They never know with the Mongols.
They are saving.
Language barrier.
We're causing some difficulties.
Are they all speak different dialects or something?
Apparently because, you know, techno saying B is empty, they don't understand.
Yeah.
It's all guy.
Well, you shut up, Tanya.
We're trying to organize the A here.
The slurk, man.
Oh.
That was a weird round. But now they're winning again and it's a flawless round and get them there.
They caught 3D Max juggling their nades.
Kill all jugglers.
It's a great round. That's excellent work.
Well, everything's fine.
A lot of headset fiddling today, sorry.
Yeah, it's okay.
Corner smoke.
No commitment.
Maybe a little leek-pong.
Leek-pong pop.
I hate Pong! I hate Pong!
That's very nice.
I connect four friends from the flight, just message me as watching the screen.
I still think about you.
So that's the picture we still talk about.
Wait, so he likes CS already?
Yeah, yeah, he likes CS too.
CS and connect four friends.
Can he teach us the ways?
Dude, we have to beat J-Razz. Send in some strats.
Yeah, I guess.
You should send a link to an online game and him and J should play.
Oh!
We were doing it on a little app.
Okay.
There is apps for that.
Someone made an app.
There do be.
Okay, we need to get him and J.
That's a fail set.
If we ever need one.
Mac has got a cheeky little MP9 play cooking up.
If anyone commits mid.
The flash and swing.
is it dry instead?
blades? oh wait
flash
he did worse
and he still got the B site
that's probably the round
that's unfortunate
Better 3B setups you can have in terms of trying to play together and all of that, but
let's even blind Stelraksh.
I do question the walking into the stream, the hail of gunfire, like, at a certain point
he was running on ammo.
How accurate can he be while he's blind, you know?
True.
Turns out very, but like, you know, admittedly in the moment.
Right, actually he did wait 22 bullets before he beat me like, let the final leg go.
And now it's a tie game, dude.
What does it mean if the Mongols win this? Yankee, are we looking at a 2-0?
Potentially.
Okay.
It's out there.
This puff like the one where 3D Max would have a bigger advantage.
But it's also 3D Max.
Never know.
You know?
to show up to ancient play a better game and we could go to inferno
don't think too much about the
future harry
live in the moment
alright that's actually good advice
thinking about the future causes you anxiety
thinking about the past causes you depression
see you in the moment man
it's actually a nice bit
alright then living in the moment
and dump your girlfriend if she doesn't support you playing games
Yeah, you saw that post, you saw that reddit there
Alex broke it down
That was a really nice reply Alex, it was really inspiring
What a messaging
I just didn't think she was particularly cool
No
It's not a cool take
Unlike the Mongols in 3D Max on Dust2
Very cool what they're doing
Maybe not so much in this round, it's lower
constant fights, constant aggression, it's been entertaining.
If you're really being loud here and long, you're thinking, ah, there must be just faking
presence here.
But they're not!
Oh!
You get any more.
I mean, that's, yeah, asking a lot.
Well done from Exorcist.
Though still wins out on his, gets his one, gets the info.
Did he spot bomb on 9-10?
No, didn't.
I don't know.
He's so uncomfortable.
Nice nade damage, but I mean, it's so uncomfortable, nice nade damage, but
i mean it's going to come down to lucky likely
flash for luck to look at all four by nine ten
already can't use a lot of shit definitely is now
i thought back to
i think it'll work
i'm not sure what's the best
move for three d max in that situation for muck and lucky you know to try to
Re-clear long, but that's where the off was and you did have one flash.
I think probably Lucky should have come close to the smoke,
and then Makka should have flashed in the smoke.
And then Lucky tries to clear it, and maybe the mid player from B
also gets close to the doors, and he just pushes like a second
after that flash pops, and attention is drawn to Lucky.
Because once you lose that long player, I mean,
You're just caught between a rock and a fireplace.
Not an easy one, though.
Sorry, I don't get distracted by that little jewel at the end of the end.
Good jewel, there.
It was a good jewel.
Great jewel.
You know, I do just like how much Mongols just want to fight.
They hate like the playing slow, even though they did in that round.
Who was the next shot on the cross?
Up against the Faleco little mid push here something different fight in mid
Oh, that's Cobra's era on for the ace. Okay, give it to him
Double digits for the Mongols and time's kind of running out for 3d max here to course correct
How many mid-instads are there?
I've seen two.
I hope there is one of them.
How many was there?
Mid-instads.
I hear it's insta-doors.
Oh yeah.
Where's three on the other day?
I think?
Or someone did.
Two or three spawns, maybe?
They don't really get used.
I'm sure that you can do it from all of them.
If you learn all this more.
No bull like that.
Oh, they're running out mid-rainer.
Look at Mongols go.
They're rushing.
I love this.
I love it.
140 on the clock and no players are calling for support.
No smoke down CT.
Somebody's going to do it.
They have one?
Hello?
Three smokes available.
Just deposit themself in middle and wait for the fight.
Ooh.
That was just smoke.
They wanted to go.
That is so weird.
I feel like they're about to win the round right there
and then everyone stalls out.
I guess it might be something as simple as
just who's throwing the smoke yeah who's driving the bus can't go under 60 miles an hour
parked is Masuta
team it by a side damage done but still interesting this orb will seal the fate of mongols to be here
He's clutching, he's clutching!
Giving him the fights, they were giving him the chance to dance, but no, it's the 3D Max round.
Despite CobraZero's best efforts, now down to a one round game.
Timeout called in for the Mongols.
That one does feel rough, because you're dead on, they had all the space, they had the idea.
the mid control they were ready to go mid to be in a way apart from no one through the CT smoke
you don't want to feel like that's just let 3d mags back into the map but it has
mustn't deny oblique
I love the way Mazzini ran down mid there.
Yeah.
Lovely, wasn't it?
I mean, they've been smiling after a lot of these rounds that one was frustrating.
frustrating. A mid rush into a long rush. These guys do not care. They are just there
for an early fight. A quick day in the office. Gravity pushing up mid. Cobra Zero has just
been distracted. Could be caught out by this forward setup.
Oh. Surely they have a crazy timing now. They don't take it. Yeah, okay. That was
a free frag. Wait for them. Info, they now know it's like full long control. Maybe
Maybe this could be taken back in the middle by Kogroma.
The end goal should be known here by 3D Max.
Just Masuta alone would be four strong on A.
Still not an easy round to win.
Smoke on site.
It's going to limit what the AWP can do.
He's behind the AWP.
The way he gets one. Impressive.
I'm going into the stack here.
So I'm still pretty strong for 3D Max,
while he can slow the approach and exercise,
made it all the way through.
All picks out one more.
Lucky they blow the smoke open for him,
but there's the trade.
It's exercease.
You're wondering whether they're ready for it,
but now we're here towards Goose for a long,
all time and getting the fire off now down to this,
a 1v1.
Is he gonna go walking all the way to B?
Surely Exorcise is going to catch him in transition here.
Up on the car?
So blitz.
It's so blitz.
He's gone away.
Oh, this gets infinitely harder for Exorcise now, despite that health advantage.
This can cross out as well, so he doesn't even know which side of the site he's going to be on by the time he gets there.
This is the perfect position.
Seen this one before.
Down a car.
Low health.
Didn't pick up a HE or incendiary, so...
how do you win this i don't know you'd clear it like even then walk in
oh he's
running and oh this is an uncrouch wow fair play exorcist that was not an easy clutch to win
my anticlimactic clutch
thought that to play that perfectly doesn't matter maxis he's just too quick
slightly concerned looking cobra
and these teams fighting is definitely got a very unique plan of counter strike styles
ok well then they know that they know that they're in lower it's not going to stop them
from taking it though, Cobra Zero will concede initial space and we'll take a lot of time
off of the clock for Techno and Cobra Zero. Safe exit is assured through B. So many moving
pieces, the CT side is just constantly on the move. Now they go for a little dip through
You can see the flash lined up by a macka.
They pushed through the mid smoke on the flash.
Constantly.
Probing for intel.
Still three outside B with bomb in long doors.
What does that tell you?
You're going to go back round the world.
This long fake has worked.
It's drawn four players over, but the suit has a molly.
It's only a molly can only by a few seconds cut 23 kills though.
Masuta gonna have to be the hero of 3d max or they could just close peeking with
open it can be over like that
Longos win the round. Yeah, you'd expect so and Xenia is gonna be able to kind of lock down any rotations
But they are already kind of outside the B bomb site
Surely you get out of there. Yeah
Try again
It's a good save. It's the right save
That too. They fell for it. No one outside B spanned the smoke, made any steps, gave them
any reason to be worried about tunnels.
It was like when they saw that they'd pushed lower and smoked off upper B, the call was
made, we're going to finish B.
Yeah, I mean, there was almost like two ways you could have played around that early
info, right? You saw the double lower tunnels push, you saw a guy crossing B. You know,
the heavy B at the start, if you had the pieces in place to like pick up the
pace for an A here, you could have just finished A but instead kind of used it against 3D Max,
it's like you've cleared this position, you think B is empty, we're going to put the fear in you with
the long control so you think we're doing the obvious thing, right, like just picking up the pace
on the other bomb site and it left them at a position, a very nice way of dealing with that early push.
The second half's been wildly different though.
It's like, first one was all about just scrapping to the very end.
This one is like, one kill in the right place, wins you the round.
3D Max is just playing really group CT side, they're stacking.
I wouldn't even call them gambles, they're just reacting to info, but Mongols are pulling
way more fakes than 3D Max.
I think he makes way for the info for a long.
Nothing being told.
Blitz.
He's done it again.
Oh, how does he do it?
And he smoked me behind him.
It's the perfect bait.
So annoying to play against this guy.
Sounds incredibly like a quick commitment.
What day?
I think they will.
They're not scared of that block smoke, they're still going to be able to throw up there round butyl.
Double flash and swing.
Safe Haven found.
What a procedural.
Step by step into the site using that CT smoke as a little waypoint.
Burning, Makka down to 24 before it fades.
Coming for a long range headshot. That's exactly what he provides.
Exocys doing damage to Tecno as well.
Makka still there on the site, dipping away.
Exocys and Makka making it work.
Can it work? Just techno here, clutch is coming!
Techno delivers, pulls 12 out of the bag for the one goals.
That feels good. Bottom of the server for techno, a non-factor in this game,
and it's the spray to get him over the line.
Give him a map point on 3D Max's pick. What a close.
Well, a valiant attempt from the two of them there.
Mac on low HP, gets out, put XCCs disconnected from the play.
You thought?
Eyes like a hawk.
I love that mid-spray crouch, how you control the spray.
Yeah, back up, mother.
Dammit.
Respect.
So, if they're not walking mid-doors immediately, they're walking at 5k walk.
GG.
What a call.
Just GG.
Just 9-10 lead in the charge.
Such crazy calling.
You're not ready for this, believe it or not.
Magnum act 10 CT drop surely.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
What is running?
Just gonna run out.
Leave the charge.
One M4 is here.
Back of either world.
Use that smoke.
You go wide, you're in there, man.
Oh, they still clear our ramp successful.
Heavy nade damage.
Hello!
Leaping in is Emsenio, brought down by the Firemass Longside.
Good pickup for CobraZera, and this one is all over.
Might have been a struggle some time for the Mongols on these TRs, but not in this, head-to-head, Dust2 looking to go their way.
And they'll get there pretty doggedly down this stretch.
Flee of rounds once they moved onto the TR running rings around 3D Max.
Mongols looking for playoffs, looking for a 2-0.
Fire in our 9-10 clothes! I'll clutch!
That's insane!
Lovely stuff from the Mongols on Dust2 now, just one map separates them from qualifying
for the playoffs of EPL in its 23rd season.
But there's also some other important winners
that we need to check in with.
Cool.
DL MVP race.
Woo!
Who is on top right now?
You think if you pick Donk, you're a shoe-in Hugo.
All right now though.
One up by Harry, one more time.
No, as is the case.
Did everyone pick Donk for number one?
Did everyone?
I obviously got one.
I did one Donk to Dumau.
So I got my second pick.
Dumau second?
Yeah, man.
A choice?
I mean Lee's doing alright. I mean listen and pick like Cobra's arrow or something like that
What
Why is he's reading 0.86 is a great player. That's true. Yeah, what's happened there? Sometimes the numbers be lying
Yeah, I don't know. Maybe he could overtake after well probably not overtake, but
I'll get closer. He could. The race is on between Harry and Hugo as always. It's ended. It's ended. He's definitely...
The races are over.
It's over.
I mean, who else is in there?
What, Senna had Mikaze as well.
Yeah, he had some good maps.
He could still do more.
There is still more to play.
There's time.
There is time.
If he has like a 2.3 rating today,
he'll surpass both Hugo and Harry.
Yes, he needs a 2.3.
Yes, that's impossible.
Simple.
James, Jason was very impressed by him.
Good.
Good for Jason.
I'll take number two.
I'm happy with number two.
Number two is over.
I'll pick Doug again.
We're doing another round.
The playoffs right? We are doing another one.
We have to.
Okay good confirmation from Pilot Simon.
We are indeed doing a round of predictions.
Do you want to do some viewer mail as well?
Yeah!
Viewer mail?
Yippee DHL Mailbag at EFG Adult G&M.
Love that jingle and I love hearing your questions as well.
So if you've got anything burning on your brain, ask us anything.
Literally anything. You'll answer anything.
I'll answer. I'll say anything on the screen.
you will. I've proven it. I'm in time again.
Oh, that's in the box. That's in the box today.
Stay hydrated. Bring some Hanover. Just wanted to,
I wanted you guys to see how it affects how many people are
actually working on a stream day like today. Things last.
That's a really good question. How many people? There's a lot
of people in the world. There is a lot of people. You
say more, less than 100, less than 100.
Simon, you want to chime in?
Simon, how many people are in your room?
Without the basement.
Hey everybody, just some information on the crew working today.
You've got Simon as producer, you've got Hedwig as AP, Antoine as TD, Emile on lights, and LED.
You have Nikita on play out, Jime on AVS Red, Tiago on AVS Blue.
And if you've heard the crew looking after you in the back, we've got Kuba on graphics, we've got Wasif on engineering,
Kate on engineering, Bob in engineering, many others on engineering.
You have Casperus Helmmanager and a few others that I can't name. Thank you everybody.
Okay, okay.
You might not think it's a like so, respect accounting.
Yeah, we got like that.
More than 10?
I got up to, yeah, 15.
Even Simon's caret of the BK.
Yeah, that's right.
Say your name,
Up its master
probably like
30 30 is a nice guess with us. Yeah
Higher
It's a really good time to MC J. Key J
People are motor people. You know what? There are credits on this event, which I love so you can go and have a little night out on the credits
Yeah on a real note
There's probably like 35 things including you know, they're like just in the building right now
But you have project managers production managers rigors engineers like the whole lot
True somehow we wouldn't manage would we at all you couldn't manage you couldn't miss just too much
You think there's managers just appears everywhere. Oh people have to plan this someone had to
You know after I smashed up the the one what five seasons ago something these two or anyone
someone's job. It's very important job. Connect immediately to the Dream League set. Would that
be cool? There's crisis in these ports. Yeah, you know, back in. We all cool over there.
Air Inserations class can sort it out. It would be cool. Got any more mail? Any more
mail? Oh, we'll have time. Well, send in your questions soon. We'll get to them
at some point. That is DHL Mailbag at efg.gg. Ancient. Is it over? Yanko?
absolutely not fair it's not over but it may be over find out after this
No chance, all done!
Damn guys, we almost had it!
Thank God that's over.

Round two is Maths.
Oh no.
Question number one.
910 is considering a name change and is using a random number generator again to find one.
To annoy the casters he takes 163216.
What's the difference between his old and his new nickname, so you can subtract?
Stop it.
What?
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Again, again, again, from the start.
No, just subtract 163216 with 910.
Oh, I'm not sure, I'm good.
You already did it?
Oh, so bad.
What?
That's a flex.
I was just writing it down while you were talking.
Yeah, yeah.
No way, dude.
Stop, is it not correct?
You cannot change.
You cannot change that.
I'm excited to calculate this probably.
Your IGL is correct again, 16306.
I'm 216.
Are they 15k?
Why am I doing 15k?
Oh, oh my god.
What did you get?
The 3000.
My god, 15k.
I don't know.
I don't know.
It's my long shot.
Holy moly.
I just looked at it and I was subtracting my mind.
That's more impressive.
I think you got more points.
Question number two.
Robs and Suia both drive on the Autobahn.
This is in his Porsche 911 and goes 214 kilometers per hour.
Smuya is in his Ford car and goes 157 miles per hour.
Who is driving faster?
Smuya or Ross?
I don't know why.
It's the mice.
I don't know what you're doing.
I don't remember the calculation for that,
so I'm just gonna guess.
Mouths per hour, really fucking dumb.
Let's go.
Mouths per hour, mouths per hour,
mouths per hour was correct.
You kicked the mouths per hour.
The big mouths per hour.
Yeah, the mouths per hour.
Oh yeah
Do you agree?
Yes man
Is that just nothing?
I don't know
Is that the
Like doggle but almost
Yeah pretty much
That's kind of like how I'm like
Yeah
That was correct
Good job
Thank you
Is that the first one?
No no
No no
No no no
No no
No no
No no
No no
No no
No no
No no
No no
No no
No
No no
No
dollar per month salary. How much is left for the fifth player? Please give the total
amount of everything that's left.
Kind of hard though. No, it's difficult.
Did you see that on my hands?
Are you deaf?
No, I'm not.
The lines are not off 150,000.
I won't be off them. I said no way.
There's no way.
Are you confident?
Yeah, yeah.
For sure.
Alright, let's go.
No.
He's correct as the only person again.
168.
I got 120,000.
168,000.
Well, it takes some proves again that IGLs are in fact the smartest.
And this was needless knowledge.
It's embarrassing by the way.
I'm just glad I got Indian Ocean, but what comes to mind?
Screw math.
Hey FuturePros, today we're on everybody's favourite map, Dust2.
This time with the smoke to block off the long doors.
To throw the smoke, head out of spawn and into this corner.
Aim as shown around the smudge, then jump through the smoke.
While this smoke lands slightly later than some alternatives, the range and cover it
provides is quite superior.
Let's make sure to throw it as fast as possible.
Raging on between the Mongols and 3D Max.
We just saw the Mongols win out on Dust2.
And it was a very broadly map of Counter-Strike.
Are we gonna get more of the same here on Ancientin?
I feel like we will.
It's a broadly map.
I mean, so does too.
So, yeah, I'm hoping we get to see more of the same.
It was very entertaining.
And an arrow missed out for the 3D Max boys, you know?
It didn't necessarily look a guarantee for the Mongols
up until they did pull it across the line.
It still ruled the rounds of regulation.
We've got Harry, Kigo, Janko.
I need to see one more.
I need one more Mongols dust to win before I start believing that they legit improved on the map.
Also don't forget, this is all online CS.
Let's see if Blitz is gonna walk out mid like that online, you know?
When there's Donk and Shiro on the other side, mostly Shiro.
I feel like it's still tried.
That's Blitz, by the way.
Mara's not there. I saw them a picture from the bootcamp before earlier. Mara wasn't there.
Maybe he's like just coaching them from home. That would be weird, but maybe who knows. Maybe
he just wasn't there for the photo. Who knows. You guys were talking about it. Chengdu,
Blitz. He was playing like a madman until Mara got there, you know.
It was actually very fun to see how Blitz would play if there wasn't someone that
kind of reel him in to any degree.
It's a great ad for coaches, really.
Yeah.
That chunk do games.
Yeah.
It was some of the baddest CS I've ever watched.
It was good.
Also, man, they've been on the same team for like 13 years or something.
Not actually, but like six years.
Yeah.
I think close to it at this point.
Techno just a little bit less than that.
So a lot of familiarity there and.
Let's get into his Glock familiar with Exercease, who still has the best room in Counter-Strike.
Yeah, it's not even close, man.
I'm not even naively.
The room, I know, it gives off like haunted energy.
You've told me there was a ghost on his property, I believe.
He is playing for D-Max.
Wait, I'm unpacking this.
I know it just like you know they're kind of cursed haunted okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, actually mediocre
Cheekers of perpetual mediocre
Would you want that no
Oh a little five-man cave set up. Oh you get the info
Risky sticking around why you're so hungry for the equal kills, but his name is never picking him again
Isn't that how he gets good rating to propel himself up the board, hunts all the eco kills?
Not anymore.
You know, and he only got two and died and gave up on AK.
Yeah.
I don't want players like that on my MVP team.
Harry, I know about you.
Spinks would never.
That's why I picked him.
Spinks would hunt by the way better.
Yeah, yeah.
Like really, really quiet wait for them.
Yeah.
He'd make sure he gets four at least.
First ride for round of the game here for 3D Max, no kits, no AWP.
Plenty of madness still to ensue.
I'm just sitting here in the screen, so I can actually see what's going on.
Can we get Harry's chair, please?
No, I don't need it. I actually like the floor.
It's better.
Nice.
Okay, I'll mid-take here for 3D Max, that's good.
I need to put pressure on through the cave as well.
Little awkward there for Lucky, hung out to dry in mid through that split.
Makes a cease.
Alright, that's a hell of a catch for Macca, goes unchecked out in the red room.
Backstab as well for grabbing me out through cave, good catch as the mid-play is shut down.
Going to see a lot more of that, Yankee.
Hopefully, I'll see it.
W keys, in attendance today, 3D Max on the board.
He got a clean 5v4 man and it all fell apart, just getting a bit too ahead of themselves.
I like how we actually got to hear the sigh yeah it doesn't count if you know it's not actually on team speak
You gotta have the voice activation just low enough to pick up on the side.
You gotta have to push the torque and enable it.
Ah, that is...
You know you're real.
Piece of shit.
Wow, this is just a shutdown of the bee here.
Mazzinho dead, the only guy to add any ground and then they swing on the remaining
ramp player.
talking about pieces of shit that was a terrible BX exchange
I think for some players like veteran players when I was coaching
I think it was a bit of a tick for them, they weren't
consciously trying to be dicks, it's just
yeah, they got away with it too long, or those half sentences
they said, why are we
you know it's not it's not helping anything
why is this
why are you
no classic
why don't you hear that
yeah oh man
i love that
it's all like
not leading to anything productive
it's not good
we're all frustrated bro
none of us really wanted to be flanked in banana
with one minute ten seconds left
Sometimes it just happens. It's a big online in 2020. They're just pods.
Especially when you get, you know, random teammates. It's like, everyone has something to say after the round.
Where were you during the round to make that suggestion?
Oh, we should've done this.
It's great. It's a hindsight to call when you never want to put anything on the line and say anything during a game.
That's valid. That is valid.
But we've come a long way in, you know, team building and just attitude burn games and in organizations.
Well, this is going terribly wrong.
Yeah, this is going to be a sidebar round if you don't reel it in.
And it's fine.
No worries.
Oh, let's get one more.
Honestly, for what it was basically a full Glock round, couple of kills, that's nice.
Call them a hab because they did in fact reel it back in yo sheep cut. I don't even know if that
Works, I think there was something to do with like a fish and a upset. Yeah pretty good
Keeping it a plastic will be dick for everyone out there. Yo
We're having a whale of a time
It's around six Harry his best your kinder impression right now
This is how close I have to be
I'm so blind like it's still no glasses that's my poor reserve kind of giving
your eyes like a test yeah a little bee walking soon as ready for this
just nicely does remove the first one's already tucked on coffee but good fight
from a Zeno an important fine still walking blind spot grabby set to collect
Oh, quick reaction source hit on the rifle.
He is.
Not a fun retake, coming in from three different avenues.
You've got one parked in cave.
Pressure applied ramp should limit 910's positional options.
Oh, he's done well.
He removes one prong, exorcise pokes back.
Doesn't look like they're really ready to give a command.
Ooh, significant damage, that's enough of a distraction.
I have Senior in the queue.
You're not gonna be able to find it, we see the retake come and take shape
It was not easy, but 3D Max prevailed three kills in the round from Lucky.
What a fortuitous retake for the side of 3D Max.
Don't know how they pulled it off.
It was impressive.
The bull bank certainly helped.
I think Lucky's one of those guys that's extra extra good on an ancient, I know we've
seen him have a pop-off performance on this map in particular, turns into Lucky Pro Max,
yeah, 16.
B finish, test for the Masuta and Gravity Duo.
This time, it's going to work, yeah?
I'm starting to disagree with you.
Who needs Techno anyway?
You've got 9, 10 lining up something.
Is it just a flash?
It's just a flash.
Oh, it's like a reaction for if Blitz needs any assistance.
well crunch on the lane just a shut down bro they're not close to getting into
B
alright little head tilt from blitz two options slow down on this B lane for
Mongols or they're just going to run a or Alamed because right now they're just
getting crunched they're getting pushed on the lane not getting a chance to gather
their thoughts orb comes out for 910 so maybe a more default round here
Nintendo in classes for me they're going for heaven control smoke first
denied and double entry comes in here for the Mongols. Fights came their way
Didn't have to lift a finger
Oh, oh, backstab!
Seems to be sharp!
He's hitting some shots from top former last map as well
Yeah, I remember finding the body, like the fact it was body on the chopping block a bit
so probably it was one of them or
I don't know, you know, higher rated players
But when we asked him to see somebody he said it could have been any of them
Interesting
I'll interpret that
No, I don't
I don't think that's...
Do they just roll a dice or something?
I don't think he's giving you anything.
Flip a coin.
I mean, he was the latest addition.
That's true too.
So, easy scapegoat. Or maybe just didn't fit, right?
Yeah, that's also possible.
Non-CS.
Ultral, yeah.
But yeah, the suitor has kind of taken to this team well.
Taking this opportunity by the horns.
Lucky when you consider what team is who comes on for he was on foot like he was on not the org
but he was on that team he was on the
what he was on the he was playing with that four wasn't he
so after mccasey left yes before long story and so kind of a awkward timing got got kicked and then
the team got better yeah so that's always never a nice correlation for you as a
your stock as a player.
Yeah, it wasn't for long, but...
I don't know if it until...
August.
Okay.
I'm happy to see he's found a home.
And 3D Max, you know, they've been on so tantalizing,
kind of breaking into the top ten and beating big names.
Mongols would be a team that they wouldn't have to be able to be consistently if they wanted to kind of get to the next level
Still haven't seen 3D Max
There is a really do something. Yeah, like make a
Final yeah of the top of that or even I mean the mid CAC final. Sure. That was good. That's
left a big trophy or
make a
Dent to the top eight of a tier one event
Kind of just been waiting for that. They've been on the edge. They're the two-two team, you know
You probably be the time this is for play of qualification today would be a great time to do it
Assistant coach NBK last sink back as well no longer, you know, you know
Which is sad, just for the name reason, you know.
Gravy, good catch on this lane take man, it's been a constant source of pressure for 3D mags.
I like how they're just walking it down as well, they never flash, they're not even doing the doors.
Oh dear.
This could get weird now.
See we're able to get eyes on the door in time, Blitz just walks on through right into him,
through right into him, re-block on the door, but they're going to flash through it.
So do it.
Yeah.
No support here.
Another 1v1.
They had to win that fight.
Lucky is in T-swing.
CQ players don't need to play fast back in short side, because lucky if I had the
bomb down.
Oh, that smoke needed to fade to get this kill as soon as possible.
Oh, don't hold it too long!
Good recovery.
It could have gone wrong.
He's got Molly for the bomb.
for the bomb they're gonna try fight forward but they're everywhere 3d max in your head
not to be too they are just walking down the ramp and every time they catch mongols with their
That's a bad thing though.
Not always a bad thing though.
Yeah.
I mean, if you're trying to win the game.
Yeah, sometimes.
Have you watched how I met your mother?
No.
You don't know about the naked man technique?
I haven't heard that one.
But Zynga, she's like that one though.
Harry you nothing I know I never watch time at your mother I've seen episodes
feel like it's it's too long over an explanation then if no one's seen it
sorry I don't even know if you can make that joke anymore it's different times
Neil Patrick Harris is in that.
Yeah, correct.
And then the mother.
Yeah, nice!
Mary Magdalene.
Bungles will be needing some more rounds pronto.
Or we'll be going to Inferno next.
They just haven't been able to deal with lane. They haven't had it in these rounds. 3D backs are down and keep taking it.
Oh no, wasn't that bad.
Oh, is he going for this?
Oh well, he ended up in kind of the middle zone there.
Oh my god, there's always one more. Oh, get him out. We just need one more force by guys. One more good force by. We're back.
Have we had the JL rumors?
What's the source of this?
I don't know.
Okay, good.
Rumors?
Rumors?
Playing with liquid.
Does that save liquid, Yankee?
Umm...
No.
Maybe makes it less, but actually I don't think so.
The two roster came in, plus that face.
Just like Mavi, Gibi.
Who do you get rid of on face?
Brokey and Jokey.
It's fun.
Looked to bring in a more experienced dry flit.
Maybe someone who'd been having a lot of success lately.
A rain.
Mmm.
It's fire.
They're just running past it.
Like he's gone down, trade available for XCCs?
He can do this, control this guy.
Guys, trust me, this last four-spy?
That's the one.
That's the one that's gonna work, okay?
Whoa! What about this one?
Okay.
Oh, no, no, no, no, he's fine. He's finessed it.
He has him right where he wants them, on a, as he's running to be.
And they're aggrowing this, so they'll be slow to get into position.
9-10, sneaking.
He only saw one.
Well, wrap it up, Harry.
It's gonna be a long old wrap.
the end of the half. Go Harry, you got it.
Well, I mean, they're just coming into this fully. They might
even be 910 to the lane. Are they going to go clear donor?
Why is 3D Max falling?
This is classic 3D Max walking around together, Wolfpack
mentality. And 910 is terrified. Oh my god. Yeah, I mean,
save actually is the right call here. He's saving is not
I get the hell out Hugo saving is the right call haven't had a case all bloody half
Yeah, I'm gonna play galils and I'm gonna have a great buy anyway flipping rounds in a row
I think 10 health he ain't winning they not have a better buy if you've got the bomb down extra 600 bucks for everyone
Yeah, but he was self included like what?
Okay, you can buy two more Nate imagine if you had an extra 600 and everyone you'd be feeling pretty good get an aid as
Well, everyone would have it wasn't one of them. It just not the Mongols way. Yeah, you know
NT from 910 for a couple. It's just the Mongols man. Every now and then they have to troll a map
This happens
Think 3d max was something
Made this incredibly uncomfortable like they're happy to brawl at Mongols base. Yeah. Oh, you want to fight? Let's fight. Let's fight
Galeel's, Mac10s!
I wonder if they're gonna fight them lane again.
It's looking likely.
Let's see Gravity's having a look.
Clash comes in!
Oh, this one is a headshot!
Okay, walkie-mo-mo.
It's one guy in B.
Only Missutah here.
Won't get out with anything.
So now they have the sight.
This is one of the best-looking rounds they've got to have, all half.
I'm gonna try and challenge that through cave on that tap run right into techno
still one man makes it in
oh 910s dealt with him and maca so low as he went
Dueling with the Blitz Mach 10. It's done. It's looking good for the Mongols.
Oh, tried to kill him. Good dodge. Good dodge.
Can't save now, Macho. Go for the wallbang.
Yeah. Wrap it up.
And this one... Oh!
Hang on, he's going for it, but no idea where 9-10 is.
So the jump shot was sick, but much like exercise, we're out of here.
That's a fourth round on the board for the long goals is they're gonna have to try and come back on ancient
To the left, laser beam!
It was a battle for the lane and 3D Max had implemented a bit of a one-way system in that first half.
And it was their way or the highway. Mongols couldn't secure the foothold out towards B.
But kind of slapped around in the first half.
It's their my pick and so now they move over to the CT side where things have got to get better.
It's that or it's a third map, Inferno waits in the wings, 3D Max bringing Ludacus' pace into this CT side.
Let's see what their T has in store.
If there ever was a good use of the term fighting fire with fire, I think this series is it.
Mongols can do to 3D Max what they did to them. It has to start right here, right now.
Our first proper A-Play all game. Mongols didn't touch it on their T side.
side and the games and it was nice watching it has not started right here
right now it has ended right here right now Harry thoughts is it fat boy slim
right here right now what other there's a couple of classes just realized a lot
of the names all good. You know what? We'll just leave it at that.
Obviously, man, awesome. Awesome, dude. Good guy. Great guy. Actually, I have no idea what
he likes, so it's probably not the best thing to like, you know, I don't know if he was
having some weird time to be a fan of like any celebrity. Yeah, I think that's some
weird email. It's just a guy that made music. Yeah, the songs are nice. Never meet your
heroes.
Let's see, are you going to get away with this?
Oh, no, you're not.
All right, 3D mags.
They want to make this a three map series after all.
They've won the pistol.
It's the first humongous step in the right direction.
And now over to humongous himself.
You should change your name to mungus.
your surname. And my first name is Hugh. Hugo Mungus. Mr Mungus. It just sounds so good.
Now over to Mr Mungus. Mr Mungus. Oh, you have fun. Karate kid. That was his name, right?
Mr. Mungus.
Oh, dear.
All right.
Yeah.
3D Max, they've got this round in the bag.
Oh, that's sick.
You reacted like they missed the line.
No, no, no, it just freaked me out.
It came right towards me.
I'm wearing 3D glasses.
Okay.
I was scared.
Oh, nice pick up for 910.
The stacks assembled.
And disassembled.
Just like that.
Grenade.
Psyche.
There's still some disassembly required here, here you go.
DIY.
Disassemble it yourself, and they will.
It's like the worst version of the Avengers ever.
Avengers Disassemble.
Oh, that's good.
I'm so sorry never happened before never normally happens to me I promise that's not true
it's a lie you go man you gotta start this all
I mean broadcast is it proves Harry that you can control it what do you mean you know what
I mean you know what I'm talking about
Well this is going to be a hard round for Mongols to come back into.
Save.
No kits.
Oh, I like this kit.
Still save.
It's them Mungus.
Bring me your save.
I think this round is a great example of why you need to have this A-Rash fast-deck
execute APOP, however you want to call it, or whichever version you end up using in your arsenal on T side.
Ancient. Just sometimes the CTs have to commit a commit way too many resources to the mid-slash lane fight,
where this is just sometimes wide open. There is one defender playing from back CT or from donut,
and you can isolate him, deal with him. If you plant the bomb ASAP, it's a very, very difficult situation for the CTs.
And Mongols never tried it. They never even looked at A in their T-side when you consider how much
fighting was going on on the lane. I know why that is. Go on. They want more inferno reps.
3D Max, a decent inferno team. So they want to get tested. They want a brawl.
And they're on their early game. So it has to be a three mapper.
Is that so excited?
Hang on, Mara is talking.
He's there. I mean on TeamSpeak at least.
Yeah.
I bought him in.
200 ping, lagging out.
Guys, can you hear me?
Well, at least they saved.
I mean they've been dealt a difficult issue right?
It's like you don't feel safe and committed to the same type of lane control that 3d max did now because you've had these
Constant a plays so you kind of have to show that with some respect surely and put someone over there
Problems to solve and not a lot of time to solve them in but isn't that the perfect environment for a blitz chess player?
Oh, I like that.
Yeah, except they've got 15 seconds on the clock and their opponents have 60.
And they've run out of prawns.
Oh, no.
3D Max seafood, they eat it.
Chowing down on this tea side.
Right out middle with a bit of a bosh, and Techno does retreat to cave.
44, we've seen worse positions, but Mungle's lacking the util.
and the info blitz just rotates red as they come in here
this is where in-game leaders earn their salt
can you come up with a solution for the round
outmaneuver your opponents
Lucky has the C4 as well
Xercese very deep he's
probably won the round don't jinx him
see ya double on the back of the spacing now spacing is the most important thing here
where's your teammate wait for your teammate now unlucky out of ammo the cleanest but we got
there give you one bomb picked up and nine ten don't save now gotta give this a go
How about he'll have N4 for the next round if he's...
And a kit.
Maybe we'll come in handy in a 1v2 post plant.
This one, 3D Max, deep position.
Makes a step as well.
You could just stick it.
Oh, he would never know.
Got a Molly.
Out of goes, and 910.
Bit of a swing.
The Molly missed.
Yeah.
missed. Yeah, Molly ain't doing nothing. Well, bang, you can
walk by this. You know,
sticking it and swing for Mac. Job done. We're up on a 12.
You got eight chances to close this out. That's almost
unlimited chances.
It's enough chances. Chances. Yeah, you didn't just say that
was very regal.
British I've heard you.
All right, love.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
RUN!
3D Max get us on to the third
Long goals they wanted more inferno time
they've got it
9-10 went for that 1v2 so he could buy an AWP after he loses it in this round
I'm next to no utility.
So, you're happy that you haven't had a lot of pressure put on early?
Actually, I think that's a bad thing, Harry, but this allows them to really zone in and focus on their crosshairs.
Okay.
No fiddling with nades.
That's where Mongols are at their most dangerous.
I'll boost up here for CobraZera Mako with the clear nose that he's up here now.
Let's take me find out how deep Exorcise has gotten hidden behind this corner.
Noise made outside B910 awaits. Will he get 3-5-0?
So, moves into that ramp angle and double kill, G G.
And the third map and so we will wrap it up.
Yeah, this one's getting wrapped up.
Triumphant return to form out of 3D Max.
By the time ancient rolls around they were all over the Mongols in the first half
and they've been stun locked out of this game.
Blitz will have to dig deep for answers as Inferno awaiting in the wings
and just moments away from coming through.
Good stuff from 3D Max here, right? Dust2 might have been a brawl, a close affair, Ancient is nothing of the sort.
Playoffs still well within your grasp, 3D Max, as they've earned a third and final map in this series.
It's been a long time and I miss this feeling It feels like freedom, it feels like healing
Floating off the floor past the ceiling
The wind in my hair I can see the light
At the end of the tunnel as I'm taking flight
Man, I'm feeling like myself again
Hey, man, I'm feeling like myself again

I'm emancipated, blow a kiss, stop the neighbors
Saying bye to Felicia, saying hi to Miss Parker
I was in the darkness, didn't stop the shining dark
I was at the bottom, but it didn't stop me climbing dark
Talents, we in high to nose, cook up, I'm providing flows
Hold me, you invited, get it reunited
With the real you, you no longer gotta hide it
There's often scenes fighting up and when we are divided
Joe would rather make a man
Food on the table, big stacks in the bag
Drink in my hand, watch me do a little dance
Take a little chance, kick it where the queen
Tell her where my man's going, where the flow
Mixing up the glands, this the men the damn stress
Is up the window, kick your feet up, un-believe
Use your foot up off the gas and if you're going through it
This too shall pass
Woo!
Hey!
I'm feeling like myself again Man, I'm feeling like myself again, yeah
It's been a long time and I miss the feeling It feels like freedom, it feels like healing
Floating off the floor past the ceiling the wind in my hair I can see the light at the end of the tunnel of them
Take you flying man. I'm feeling like myself again
Man, I'm feeling like myself again. It's been a long time and I miss this feeling it feels like freedom
It feels like healing floating off the floor past the ceiling
Wow!
Eco-fragger!
Yeah, and who's mine then?
That is probably...
It's one group here in Mesh.
I think that's not highlight for me.
Oh, that's highlight!
That's mine! That's a highlight! That's a real highlight!
I agree with that.
That's my 100 years luck.
This is against eternal fire.
Yeah, it's against eternal fire.
I feel like we've been we've been we already win it was a little bit in the
month this is Kevin Devin well the cowboy cowboy mr. 4k I think it was really
I think they can advantage from here, yeah.
Yeah, you like to do it?
Yeah.
This is the copy of Mongolia.
Of course.
It's peace crown.
Do an important crown.
That's a good man.
That's your cover.
Not your piece.
Cooprager.
Yeah, that's important.
I guess it's not a car.
Yeah, I guess it's not a flyer.
Are they easy to play against?
No.
Santarres, Mr. Santarres.
What is that?
Santarres pick.
It was four apps, right?
Yeah, for ex.
Yeah, I remember that.
Whoa, that's so good, man.
2v4, yeah.
In this match, Tecno and Tim speak.
I'll defuse, I'll defuse.
Stay alive, stay alive.
Make noise.
I'll defuse it.
That's the only highlight from this map, I guess.
I was like, only three kills in this entire map.
Sadly, we lost it.
Yeah.
But we were managed only in the best of three.
All right, welcome to the studio. This is a little bit of an interesting, different
episode this week. We have a guest, and it's going to be a highly controversial topic.
So welcome to the studio if you could just introduce yourself for the audience.
Yeah, yeah. Thank you for having me. Yeah, my name's Morpheus. I'm coming from the
elite crew with a leading hack-free-hack-platform
colony and counter-strike,
we're creating developing cheats and making sure
that the future of premier matchmaking in general
is under our control.
Yeah, and we've obviously hidden your,
we've changed your voice and hidden your face for this.
Just, I mean, it takes a lot of courage
to kind of step out of the wheelhouse
and come in and do something like this
and just kind of stand up as the piece of shit
you are to the world as a cheater.
Listen, let me tell you,
This is the concept of building towards my utopia of the future.
I envision the premiere platform to be a perfect HVH community, meaning every game you play,
you'll have competitive hackers on either side building to a tournament in the future
where we could actually have a LAN, which is built around the philosophy of HVH hack-free-hack
canvass-track tournaments.
Now, you might not think that's possible, but we've actually got-
That's the dumbest fucking thing I've ever heard.
We've got an army of cheaters ready to take part in this,
And people just think, oh, they're all using cheats.
There's no game, there's no tactics there.
You would be wrong.
There are plenty of tactics.
It's all about the grenade placements.
Which cheats use, which weapon to pick up,
which synergy is gonna bring you the win
each and every time?
You can just shoot someone through a wall
with a revolver, with a scout.
Like, where's the skill, where's the competition?
How do you out hack another hacker?
Whoever can develop and creates the best cheats.
That's what you're not seeing here.
It's a whole different skill set, different discipline,
Understanding which shit you have how you can get the edge over other cheaters and who can deploy the most damage each and every time
It's all about coordination set up as well
And we want to create a legal people feel comfortable
Cheating and showing off their hard work and you and you feel you're okay with all this like you
I'm totally fine with this like what we don't go near like don't give me wrong
We don't go near the professional scene. We're not interested in your face. It's not interested in your land tournaments
We're creating our own ecosystem. We want to create a happy hack community
That's the group, the big objective there.
The only way we're going to get people on board is by showing them in Premiere how accessible it is to join our community.
And let me tell you, as soon as you play against a cheater, that little voice in the back of your head telling you,
oh, what have I just got cheats? Just in case. If someone cheats against me, I'll just have them ready to fight back.
And that's how it starts. That's how the seed is planted, and we keep bringing on new members every single day.
I know, I don't roll like that. I've never experienced that. I think this is all crazy.
This is all crazy.
You work with your teammates.
That's how you play the game of Counter-Strike.
You play against actual honest competition.
I think this way is, I think you're already bored of this, I think you're just going to
turn away from it and just look at it one day and be like, you know what, I'm done,
I'm done cheating.
Unfortunately for you, this is just the beginning of our assault on Counter-Strike.
You did this, you're getting on this platform today, it's significant.
And Counter-Strike, you can do everything you want, everything to your power, it's
run shutters down.
We keep coming back like cockroaches.
single-timey update back, we will find a bypass, we will find a way to deploy the spinbob.
Damn guys, we almost had this.
I can go with that, Silver.

Hey, I just wondered if we could have a quick chat about the piece that we're going to be filming.
No, it is not good.
It's fine, we can do it on MogoLion, we can translate it, we can do it on MogoLion on police subtitles.
No, no, no English.
Why do you think it would be something good for you to go?
Fuck!
Loquacious.
Twenty-one points.
How's that nip?
Hey!
When the smoke bellows in palace, the king rushes to the throne for it takes guts to
obtain glory.
Okay seriously guys I just need one of you.
Sorry, no English.
Punk!
I swear, loyalty and service to Chito.
I do not think we should so lightly abandon our defenses.
Defenses that others have long held intact.
What would you have me do?
I will not yield the opening best of three on foot.
Our pride must be retaken.
My lord, the bracket is overrun.
There must be risk in war.
Is there a captain here who has a strut to face spirit?
Do you wish now that our places had been exchanged?
That I was taken by Falcons and Nekomir was not?
Yes.
Since you arrived at Nekomir, I will do what I can instead.
I should return, think better of me.
This will depend on the scoreline of your return.
Can you sing, Master Mongol?
Well, yes, in my own language.
But we have no songs for gay long halls and old times.
And why should your song be unfit for my halls?
Well, sing me a song.
I'm not here to embarrass you, you're a cultist.
What?
Welcome back everybody to 3D Max versus the Mongols. Winner goes through to the playoffs
online here in Stockholm. Loser gets another chance tomorrow. As you can see the knife
round was very intense, a lot on the line here. You want to start on that CT side if possible
and 3D Max will be able to do so. Coming off the back of a win on Ancient, their opponents map picks,
so teams traded their map picks and it all comes down to this. That's me slapping that Inferno
bad boy decider on a series. We know it's gonna bang. Janko certified here to 3D Max.
There are three playoffs indeed and 3d max one in that knife bringing the energy to the table mongols
Maybe feeling a bit crushed after ancient. They didn't even get to play the game
No, it was fully out of their hands. That was a map dictated by 3d max
So they're riding a bit of a high coming into this and with the knife round to boot. All right
Let's see if the mongols can bounce back
pretty slow start in this pistol round actually. Not how the rest of the series has gone. Slow
to begin, but maybe quick to end. There's an explosive B-play looms for the Mongols.
The suit has been sharp in this series. He sits in dark. He's ready to tame the Mongols.
They're already in. Good flash to open things up for gravity. And now Massuter plays his
hand and it already is. If we deal with gravity on the cross, that's both the site players
dead. Bomb now planted. You're ready to cut down the flank, not checking my head.
Oh, I wouldn't you.
Get the knife, get the knife, get the knife, get the knife, get the knife, get the
...
Oh, he's a bit slow.
But it's all good. He gets it.
Okay.
Ow.
Ow!
I'm sold in that wound.
It stings here for 3D Max.
Man, I'm so curious to see if 3D Max can have three good days back to back.
Like, they have been on a bit of a run of form, taking down Furia, taking down Foot,
and now you take down Mongols, that would be one hell of a back to back to back.
Give it a pretty good path to the playoffs.
And if not, they're really hoping to get faceclan tomorrow.
Yeah.
Because the beating teams, they start with an F.
Furia, Foot.
I didn't farm goals, obviously.
I know that setup from 3D Max, I think it's supposed to sell that gravity is just solo B
and they have a 4A setup and then Misuta is a sort of a joker, but maybe he plays a bit
too early for that sort of a scenario, he's unable to connect and after that it's a
really tough situation for 3D Max.
Tough one for Exorcise as well.
If they are just going to god flash and send a mag 10 searching, it could be that, oh, they're not even going to do that, but it's just goes searching and forward, contact play, hoping for a little jiggle from exorcist to give some sort of info safely.
Now we will see the CT smoke fire in and it's just looking like a guaranteed round unless exorcist does something inhuman.
Mag 7, maybe good gun, I'm seeing a bad gun.
Ooh, nice tracking in the air.
And now the Mag7's activated. He has got him!
Oh, solid out with an A-sense there on the final one.
Overwhelming.
All the Synapse is firing, but he's left him in a good position.
Backstab in through Banana.
And 3D Mags pick up the 4-spy.
Welcome to the gym, says Exercease.
God, show them how it's done.
Oh
Yeah, well their cortisol is gonna spike after that one for sure
OT on the
It's it is maybe good guy maybe bad
Gets his to everyone else collapses
Blitz you know needed to hit a bullet there if anyone did have any chance of dealing with that overwhelming retake
So, 3D Mags, yeah, why not? Let's go.
Mongols immediately sent to the... well, it's not the Stone Age, is it?
Because you've got Tec-9s.
Careful about that.
They're the Bronze Age.
They're the Bronze Age. You've got, like, more than sharp sticks.
Not much better, but...
Good enough.
Yeah.
It's not coughing baby or whatever, it's something else.
Instead, it's Tec-9s and a lot of Util.
So there's a very good chance that they will just run at gravity, get the kill, get the
rifle, take, obviously, 90 seconds to do all of this, and potentially plant the bomb.
Grenades, no help for gravity, well, we clear him, Techno does, confirms his presence,
Ooh, big maid, bounce.
Does find a nice trade from the flame.
Great job from Misuta with that counter.
Incendiary, bought time for Groudy.
He would have just been dead outright.
At least this way he gets one kill.
4v4 scenario. Still decent utility on the side of the Mongols.
Now they're using time to their advantage,
uncertainty in the ranks of 3DMAX and they are going for a 3B gamble at the most terrible
of timings. Little do they know about that though and it's going to be all an exorcist
again! Now on the A-bomb site!
No MAG 7. All the rifle do as much. Would do. Good grenade. They come charging in.
10 seconds!
Oh, full blind. Still gets one. It's going to be enough to keep you interested in
in the retake.
Macer fast to arrive.
Traits even right now in the redoll of a 9-10.
Gonna walk it home.
Lugly there on the final attempt.
Mongols with a reply.
Bronze Age graduating.
Here we go.
They're revolving.
Ole.
Ole.
The Zynga.
Oh, the catchphrase is.
The plow.
Just cuts through so hard
Nice shot from 910
Just on a fade bonk
Absolutely love. I like the fast running from 3d max
But as you get that first kill that's where you maybe want to pump the brakes a little bit
There's plenty of time to diffuse the bomb your 3v2 the pressure is on them your teammate along it smoked off
So I feel like therefore
For just a couple of seconds they lost the team play aspect, if the long player would push through the smoke at the exact same time,
perhaps you can trade out in the 3v2, but great bounce back from the Mongols.
In the end, you can say, why are they going 3v4, what are you doing, guy?
But they were just immediately clearing for Info and they pushed right behind them, so in the end it worked out,
Even though XRCs didn't buy that much time, and 3D Max was still in a good scenario, and that's important.
You can't just be out there, sitting on B with three guys in the 4v4.
That would have been bad, but they were proactive, still had a decent time flank.
Just couldn't clutch.
I like that we're getting slanted.
It's like Harry.
Yeah, that's fair.
There you go.
There it is.
Strayan.
Just right in the end.
So you went that way to sleeping?
It's all good.
Bro, no.
I like that we're getting all the impressions from the anchor today.
Yeah, he's done British.
She's done way to till the Mongols game is over.
And I'm out of the woods.
All right, long wrap.
Love to see it.
You've got a lot of room.
Just getting away for sure.
He's stranded in neither.
Exorcise, Mike Semin does it again.
I like it, but he's downgraded there.
Yeah, drop that one off in the pool and yuck.
Single-handedly keeping the French economy alive
It's a safe he's making the next seven look good
I don't even have a lowdown you don't even because it let me down too much like it is
50-50 it is the best gun or the worst. Yeah, you will point blank them for 16 damage
Yeah, and do that a couple of times and you go fuck this. Yeah, of course
But I mean you've seen the kills he's been going to what I need when it lands
Oh my god, this is a laser right another one
Didn't even hit him
First oranges to pool in that first time that was a long-range headshot hundred damage. Yeah. Yeah, it can be crazy for sure
The jump shot is nice. I like the Nova
No one was underrated, no one was underrated in the game right now outside of the auto sniper on CT side.
Also based opinion in my loadout.
You two actually have a lot more in common than I think you do.
The thing you don't want to hear maybe is that the AUG is actually pretty good.
If you have money, AUG CT side, hit fire, certain maps like Nuke, it goes on.
Is it a one-butterhead shot up close?
Yes it is. Underrated aspect. Spray is super easy. You can scope in.
Find you don't really need to in most fights.
There's like maybe situations where it's nice.
Yeah, definitely can. Like, you know, if you're playing like a CyWoo CT yard or Nuke, like...
You know when that rops corner on a Nubis A site where you're like peeking into a main,
you're right across the pillar, just that little pixel.
Dude, there are times.
There are times.
You don't see much of Nubis. I don't see much of Nubis at all.
Hmm, better boy did you honestly my map pool has been for the last three days
Well, you and me Alex has been dust to mirage inferno or
Was the one variation in it. It's like ancient instead of getting some one of the two
Get overpass in the face game
We got three hours worth of it
What do you think?
That was enough. That was all the overpass you needed.
Do you think we have the cash coming in?
Is it going to happen? Surely, right?
I think he wants you to pick it, yeah, but...
I don't know, maybe not.
What's it replace? Not what do you want it to replace?
What will valve do?
Let's look at that recent logic, because they took train out.
So by that logic, open?
What's the least played map?
Yeah, so it probably would be overpass.
But they put so much effort into the remaking of it
that I think they're kind of giving it time.
time I'm still like living the pipe dream where I think maybe they will
remove inferno finally keep a tactical map like ever passed in not in photos
and tactical but you know it's yeah but you want an old-school map hasn't been
out of the pool in a long time yank it doesn't like that the old-heads
I'm sorry I'm just really nervous as long as they don't move no nukes
the only argument to remove new kids oh it's been in the pool on time yeah
because it's the best map in the whole game, sorry.
I don't like this thing where they add the train and then after six months they take it out.
I think for the competitive scene it's not ideal.
I know they care to the casuals too, like, also don't have to do that.
You can keep them slightly separate, but whatever.
I think I like the seasonal map changes.
I don't know about one every season or two per year.
Players seem like one every season.
Whenever I've asked that you don't change it like after a season, right?
So if train was back, it had to be back for like two or three seasons.
Yeah, okay.
Or do you like the idea of every season one map case?
Yeah, but I remember what I, my idea was to have five vanilla maps that are always in the pool.
And then two maps are being rotated in and out all the time.
Oh, on top of the five, they've had a change.
Yes. Interesting. I like that.
What are your five?
muke dust mirage inferno oh at this point ancient every possible
ancient guess ancient maybe this place would be also four plus three I don't
know yeah three might be a bit much I leave train over ancient honestly but
that's just me being a boomer and have emotional attachment to train ancient
probably this is not really fun man yeah it was getting better it was
evolving I don't like ancient that much anymore either I think it fell off
and off yes it did like oh ecstasy oh yeah take it where you got it he's blocked
in a max haven't got him primed yeah he's in dude when he's having a good
inferno game to I think he's so annoying on these tea sides you'll be like
finding little gaps over the wards long find the gaps on CT yes look at him
Hopefully a good sign of things to come.
What a nuisance he's become.
Oh, they should check that we're going to cause an exercise.
Oh, they found him now, so gravity...
...brimed!
Beautiful.
He can live. That orb is in trouble.
Yeah, they've got 12 seconds. They need to kill someone now.
Okay, that should open up a plant.
I know, right?
Hello?
How lucky!
Uvres les yeux!
Open the eyes!
You can call Xer she's the mystery shopper because he's finding all the gaps
Like
They're going from bad to worse
Think it was possible
Continue to surprise
Mongols timeouts things must be real. Oh, yeah since when Mara just
Oh, he's not it's not it's a dialogue blitz and Mara having a conversation techno with the chip in
I think there's a lot of yes sir for the players.
That's a perfect camera, I think it's a really great one.
You know that scene in Harry Potter where they end up in like, I don't know what it is.
Okay I need a little more.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
It's like the big old train station, there's like the little clients Voldemort.
A little baby Voldemort all shriveled up on a bench or something?
Yeah, oh, what is it like a weird white thing?
Yeah, yeah, the white, that's what it looks like Mazzinho is.
It does.
Wow.
It takes an explainer to get there and I can't give it a name, like Purgatory?
Yeah, like the kind of the afterlife.
Popping baby Voldemort.
Poor Craigslist.
Why was he a little baby?
I don't remember.
I can't remember.
You must know
Janko and Harry Potter, he's in a pod
Well because they thought they killed him but he wasn't really dead, he was just as weak as a baby
Okay
So he was holding on, nursing himself back to strength
But not strong enough to be at the back of that dude's head anymore
Yeah
I know someone who knows this
Yeah, I do too
JK Simmons or
I heard the bugs, right?
Yeah.
I was like, what?
Just kidding.
J.K.
J.K.
Can't win this one.
Are you gonna try?
Or not?
Spaded two CT smokes.
Ooh!
Extra smoke.
We know what 9-10 would like to do.
For your pleasure.
They're going to go. They're going to go for a last second B here.
They won't have a CT smoke by the time they go.
What?
They have two.
Oh, it's a little too easy for Maka. A little too easy all in general.
Blitz is going to peace out.
Wow, Blitz saved. Now that is uncommon.
Yeah, we've seen Timehouse. We've seen Saves.
I don't feel like Mongols are a terrible Inferno team, but the one problem is
I feel they're at their best when they end rounds relatively quickly, right?
So by the one minute, around the one minute mark, they're sort of going into the hit that
they want to do, and the round is pretty much over.
Like this slower style, where it's like coming down to 20 seconds left, and that's when
they're hitting the bomb site.
Like this is just not Muggle's identity and not something that they're very good
But inferno, just the nature of the map extends these rounds.
It's hard to end rounds early, unless you get really good reads and are hitting the weaker side all the time.
So, that'd be something that's hurting the Mongols on the steed side.
I also think they're a team that love a scrap, love a fight.
This is a very punishing map to overextend on.
like I've seen them throw away some rough post plants just from over peaking
like you take an opportunity like that you know good example in front of us
here you take an opportunity and immediately you're in this kind of
uncomfortable four on five and all of the dice hasn't worked out but we are
gonna be seeing a bit of a structured brackets take flash does catch
So, he'll be trapped behind the smoke, like he's just waiting.
Oh, fans.
Oh, no.
Not sure about that choice.
Timmy's in library.
Why would he want to go there?
Yeah.
Scared of the mitsubi, but Timmy's in library.
Back they go, and they...
Nice.
Everyone's dying on their own.
Great observing.
Catching all of that chaos.
Whoa!
Oh, no!
Whoa!
That's weird.
It's coked.
Exercise is laughing it off. He's had a very fun game.
Yeah, yeah, he is having fun. He's having a field day in his manner.
Man of the Exorcist.
You know there's a wine center as well.
Oh, 100% brain. And it's a big one.
That's just his hatred.
Yeah.
They're no longer called rooms, they're called chambers.
Oh yeah, okay. That's when you know you're in.
Not a humble abode anymore.
Quite the opposite.
I think he's got a chamber of secrets in there.
Thanks for that.
Some of JK7's best ones.
Professor Spurl.
Keep it coming.
I've got money man, they can try man.
It's got three A's, are we actually supposed to pronounce it Masuta?
He's got three A's, we actually supposed to pronounce it Masuta.
You might have to if you win this.
Masuta.
One versus three, one versus two.
He's not going to put it off.
What a crazy round.
Cobra Zero starts it and Masino finishes it.
That's my MVP.
Yeah it is.
Yeah you were right.
right there's a caliber of 100 more kills without death and he's got it some great shots
really max I mean did once again just kind of walk in also honestly like yeah
I mean where's the flash from XRCs for Makka to take that peak arch player also
maybe over committing with the fight oh it's been a while since I saw that
a G2 smoke burn in combination.
Oh, Molly forces the combat and Techno won't escape,
but takes a shooter with him and espams you to smoke.
He's having one of those games, isn't he?
Everything's lining up.
Yeah, like your ratty risk always pays off,
your smoke spam, they're there.
Your Mag7, 101.
So, yeah, yeah.
The roll of the dice every time on that, he hit it.
I think I'm gonna practice my Mag7.
The XM's just a little too expensive.
I don't know, for man.
Maybe the 9-1.
I'll say that, it's cheaper.
This doesn't sound as scary.
It's when you hit him, it's so...
The pellet spread is so tight, so if you hit him in the head,
you can't get the body shot.
You have to get over the head shot, but if you get the head shot, bang.
Let's go some range to it as well.
Try it out.
Like CT-Mute?
Yeah.
And what for the yard fight?
Yeah, garage, back garage usually.
Back garage?
I play with someone who buys the sword off and it sounds troll but every round all he does is go down vent on you,
can just sort off people in it.
I don't know, the old like snack smooth?
It shockingly works.
On CT?
No, on T.
On T he goes.
Like vent bombing with delay.
Okay.
And then waiting for the rotates.
Jeez, I love it.
Weirdly efficient.
These are the situations where a team play gets really tested. You're playing
retake B in a man advantage situation and the players have the discipline to play
to contain coordination for the Aitzel.
Who set up?
Oh, in a powerful position. 9-10, given a couple of chances to fire it off.
Loves the repeat. Just fighting. They are not ammo.
Oh, wow.
Backing down.
XCC's.
Oh, my God.
XCC's.
He's been playing a great game.
Info jiggle.
Let's go.
We've got everything going right for him.
But Mazzinho on an aggro swing puts him to rest.
What is happening?
The Mongols in the lead.
Sure.
We all expected.
Anyone who's ever played retake when inferno knows how annoying it is to retake
Even there's an AWP. Triple.
So hard especially if you don't have an incendiary, or if Mako for example saved his incendiary for that position for the retake.
He's been very nice for his teammates, whole guy to the AWP.
He kind of tried to like, force the plant to be in a different position by molting fountain I think, but underhand one towards like the default plant spot.
But you're right, he probably held more value if it was used on the retake itself.
now you're forced into this nasty situation and ecstasy how does he get
I feel like if spirits played inferno this is how long yeah same level of
confidence and precision now don't go be running up banana on 50 health every
time it's probably doesn't like it good bit of info from the Macapush he just
stays there as well. Lucky they can do an educated gamble. No, Lucky's still worried about
Aps top. He might even catch my turn doing the util. I'm just going to hide out. Okay,
play to contain. Polson them into the stag. Lucky's on his way. Double boost. It's not going to work.
And the flash doesn't or the smoke doesn't land. They just collapse that boost. Totenpole
falls. Come on. And a missed denial. Significant damage through the boards. But it's alive
though and repositions for the plant. Not looking good. Exorcise on the exit. 9-10's trying to
catch him. Gonna play the fade. There's no way in. You've got a 10 second defuse ahead of you.
You'll be bringing that M4 through. I guess Mako would like to try and leave with a rifle.
Exorcise one. That's a 1v1. Nothing to lose. Literally. Oh god. Miss shot.
I feel like exorcist has way more than 13 kills.
Like 13 is way lower than number 4 game he's been having.
No?
Uh, I mean yeah.
One kill per round on average.
Not even.
Actually, we're getting on that.
Oh, do the flashbang.
Dance, dance, dance.
Do do do do do do do.
Take.
Do you feel it?
Dance, dance.
Man, ends.
Man, Hens. That was a team.
It was. Still is.
I know, but like, it was, we, you know, we were chanting that in arenas.
They had two music kits in the game.
Hens, for surgeons, when?
You're on that, pardon?
Saw him recently?
Yeah.
The best major?
Oh, he's all trim and fit.
Oh, yeah.
God dare he.
I know.
He was like healthy and happy.
The audacity on this.
With the readable combo.
I don't know.
Levy's boy, that Levy's boy.
Little happy answers traveling now.
Oh, we got here.
Half health on the fallback.
Oh, it's on distance.
They're restraint.
It's on X and C's too.
not the guy you want to lose early
it's B here though, all this movement over towards A is a bit of a ruse
don't get bayonet
early boosting on back B
I only see four players on the minimap, yeah they got my suitor up here
on the boost
Bombs left Banana.
Yeah.
Clear is there for Maka, but will this be too late?
Can't die for nothing here, they're committed to middle.
And they die for nearly nothing, it's the next worst thing.
Spot in the orb long, bottom short, and Misuta.
He knows.
Then gravity play.
Not gonna have the time to clear the cubby.
Oh.
Oh, important kill.
Hang on. Now, Zuta. Yeah, I guess the frag.
A fifth would be a godsend for 3D Max here.
And they're looking golden.
Just Cobra's there at the back of the site. Goes down to Graviton.
Come on, man. Okay!
3D Max take the site back. This is Higgledy-Higgledy.
This is confusing. This is Counter-Strike.
Seven-five-and-a-half. Third map decider.
Winner, off to the playoffs.
I
It's a series that's gone the distance, and right now, Mongols in pole position.
It's playoffs on the line here.
And a full three map affair needed.
This has been a pretty wild series.
Everyone's been down a scrap. Everyone's been down a fight right now.
3D Max, their hopes pinned on an exercise life game.
He is looking lights out here on Inferno.
And on these two sides, can be tricky to deal with if he's feeling it.
I'm hoping we see him up to the usual tricks finding these gaps out towards long ending up in the opponent's spawn
Opening up avenues that otherwise wouldn't exist everything's been going right for exercise thus far. Well, they keep up
Mongols gonna leave those gaps is a big question. So a lot of be stacking for 3d max on that CT side
Let's do a mongols have in store
Fighting banana is Cobra's error, but they're up closer than he's ready
It's a spot, it's out, it's just the information. Exercise, getting involved, hearing the apartments.
3D Max, are they really going to go? There's only three strong right now, but they're sending it into the site.
No spawn smoke needed, Mac. A little more entry does connect. Double kill, we've sealed this round.
His exercise doing what we wanted, by the way, a little push out towards Long. Chance at a backstab.
How long can 3D Max buy four exercise?
I can't know what the two of them are. Exercise got it. Yeah, clean on the flank connects.
Now the penny drops Blitz coming up from banana side, but CobraZero is going to have
to fight and he duns well. Takes the head off gravity. Hold up. This bomb is not going
down. Blitz is going to be here to back up CobraZero who's waiting for this close
push. He's coming in from coffin. There's a cover. Beautiful shot from Blitz to bail
out his teammate and Macalo health. This ain't happening. Just crazy. They haven't planted
down way. He sticks his blitz. He ain't letting you plant that bomb. Another bizarre round.
I mean, just all of these are so unique. How long were they on B site without the without
the bomb. There's just 10 health and Cobuzero smoking the whole time, didn't want to stick
it, no smokes. They got B without a smoke down on CT, like they came down after but
3D Max already in.
Big pistol here, four mongols to keep up their winning ways and full eco from 3D Max.
Going up, going over.
There is a slight plan, which is probably hurry up and wait and then do something with your
smoke and flash.
It's kind of fun, no one's chopping the fruit though, all kidding chickens, they've been
very respectful to the environment
leave it better than you arrived
Hey Future Pros
Where's this one going Rush?
What do you reckon? That's the front pit one
We got no rush
It's Jake
You can see him right there. Yeah he's just chilling
He's on a Bellatra, I think. He's busy.
I just saw the guy. I was just... I made an assumption. That's good.
Second series. Second and third.
Okay, okay.
End job throw.
End job throw.
I'm guessing it's like front pits.
Aim at this beam.
That lands like somewhere on A there.
Does it?
Somewhere on A, yeah.
He's coming in.
Genius.
To the moon!
I mean, that was fun.
This is fun.
French space program there.
Get on a terrorist's wind.
To La Lune.
What goes up must come down.
But can they come back?
Nine-five.
Beautiful.
I love it when they're out.
Nice to visit that.
Whatever you'd call that.
Yeah, I don't know.
Yeah, like an appropriate like Zibli-Bibli.
Tie back in.
Yeah, tie back or something.
Whatever the industry term would be.
You're gonna get as good as throwing it back.
Yeah, I don't know.
Yeah, I don't know.
Yeah, like an appropriate like Zibli-Bibli.
Tie back in.
Yeah, tie back or something.
thrown it back yeah we got you know yeah in the club in the club we all found
crazy molly bloom a line of fire looks like an ability from a different game
Such as, Follercrossa Tycoon.
That is another game.
Yeah.
Club Penguin.
Flora Penguin.
Flora Penguin.
Other games are available.
Oh, oh.
The suit up.
That's his aim on display.
Just got to get past the MP9.
Now I've braided as he leaps over to his comrades corpse, picks it up.
And they peace out.
A-town.
Down.
Yeah, yeah, thank you, next thing I know, he's on the phone screaming, yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah.
I was in here, spot it, wow good tracking, tips down, folding the pot now for 3D Max.
Oh, long wrap blindsided him, lucky, walks down the site and this should just be a save.
really in a position to go for this so out of the round 3d max get to close
on in I thought the setup was sound especially with the zine you're getting
the first just long player yeah back turned three three max wait for him at
least they give him the room makes it worth their while you guys do us what
When you say wrecked them, can you put more emphasis on the TH?
I see yeah, I see what you're saying because you did just say like butthole random
Break them why I think I've been doing that forever. Yeah now's the time you tell me
Rectum rectum. Okay guys. Yeah. Yeah, it's a bit of a break. That's true
I definitely have been doing that for you. Okay, so we do have to really make sure we hit that
I like skipping letters.
Just doesn't sound as good.
If you were ever casting like Germany's team and they'd just say they'd own someone, you
I would say, big rectum.
Better than liquid anyway.
One night after the club.
Running B-pop.
Mongol's able to shut it down.
There's my MVP.
Stepping up and pulling round.
You're not laughing now Harry are you?
No, I'm having a lock-in, Spinks might have competition.
How bizarre.
This game goes long enough.
Like a really, really long time.
Equal to overtake him. Just gave him a couple of 1v3s, 1v4s.
Seven over times.
Seven over times where he's clutching every round.
Just one man on him in 6.0 rating.
Timeout called in for 3DMAX.
They're playing 3D checkers.
Blitz is playing 3D chess.
It's kinda crazy to me that Mongols are bootcamping like Imara isn't there.
We saw that he isn't there because he has 100 ping on the server.
So he's definitely not with them.
I kind of never heard.
Mongols are just...
They're just unique, man.
And it's like all right, we'll go there the five players will play from wherever, you know, it's all probably
Coach I'll just stay at home guys. I'll just you know, I'll be on teams peak. I'll connect to the server, but
You don't need me over there. I can tell where the bootcamping from the water. They have in the background. They're in Poland
Really?
Geo guess expert Hugo Byron. Think of that straight bush in the anchor. Yo, that is what? What did you call me?
Follow minerals.
Hmm, okay.
They're not rocks.
Ready!
A lot going on early in Banana, but it's all...
A rose.
3D Max to go away, and it's all down to Mzinho for now.
See if the rotate can get there fast enough. Doesn't seem like it.
There's some people on mongols that go here by the Zufa.
Oh!
That's brutal.
Wow.
The bluey.
And that's the 3D Max round, simple as that.
I mean, I get it.
Maybe MZinho doesn't want to give away his position,
even though he's picked every single round,
or maybe Valq, whatever.
But if he could have flashed long,
long yeah with them to run out and take that fight done something this way it
looked just a little bit silly from those B rotators
3D Max they're doing it you're getting there the winning rounds the wrapping
We love to rap just like Eminem, there you go.
Other rappers are available.
Name three rappers.
There's one.
Personally?
Yeah.
C&L on International Rappers Day and you can't.
I don't even do, I don't know, in current...
In current department, I don't know who's saved.
Say any celebrity I've liked, probably.
Just done something heinous, like...
I don't know.
Fool-kiend.
MF Doom.
That's a great show.
All caps when you spell them out there.
Dead now, of course.
A little pop flash there. Beautiful play.
Seeing some of those openings now from 3D Max, some of the protocols, some of the sexy stuff coming out late in the series from the French.
The French don't arrive late, they arrive exactly when they mean to.
Fashionably late.
Just like Gandalf.
Yeah, they're wizards. The entire nation of wizards.
Exorcist was, I did actually have a magic wand in that first half, Mag 7.
Henny S, known for his magic stick.
Do you know the French word for a magic wand is baguette magique?
Wow.
Wait, baguette magique?
So baguette just means wand.
I think it means...
That was disgusting from luck.
Mongols didn't deserve for act.
Another good French word for disgusting.
That's what they call it.
Unfavorite character.
That was coming.
Lucky thrice.
It's like bad fall and this is like...
Yeah, yeah.
Degolas.
Degolas when he's in his headshot.
Dead Legolas.
When he slid down there.
The rampa on the shield.
Helms deep.
Oh, the cinema was popping 25 years ago when that happened.
happen. It was so alive. Remember being excited to go to the cinema? Yeah. Because I think
of the past. How would you resurrect? Well now they're doing all the cinema stuff. This
is what they're doing, for example, one of them in Belgrade, like they have one which
is four meters, maybe 30, 40 seats in it, right? And you can order food or even pre-order
like when you're buying it's you get like a small little table next to you so you
or like proper foods, not just popcorn, you get a pizza, you can get a burger, you can get whatever you want
and it's a smaller, more intimate, and all of that. And I don't know man, at that point I'm like, wait,
what is this now? Is it cinema just supposed to be popcorn?
Yeah, but I think it's because, you know, like, you know how people can't eat if they don't have
YouTube on this is the trend it's capitalized it's toddlers that's not
true also that's just not good parenting yeah but also if you need a break
go Camelon no that is brain rock for kids brain that is right now stunning
them before they get a chance it's like giving your six-year-old an iPad with
with reels on.
Yo, that's, yeah, that's mad.
Come on, guys.
YouTube shorts.
Let the brain develop before you ruin it.
Nice.
This game really is over, like, I don't know.
You know, you have to, like, kind of admire our generation,
because we did get, like, sort of brain rot,
but without any of these tools,
like, we didn't feed our growth.
We did it ourselves.
Somehow, just for the love of the game.
Yeah, I see nowadays it's easy to get brain wrong.
Yeah, exactly.
Like back then you had none of this.
Oh, what's happening this round?
That's my envy.
Come on, Mongols.
Oh, he's going to get freaky with it.
I mean, French style.
Surely you just plant, but then they're going to run at you.
Oh, it's actually really weird.
How does gravity play this?
He's going to have to wait forever.
Just wait.
Surely tap and hope yeah
MVP right there three kills USB 10 health you go last
Absolutely disgusting the third round against pistols the 3d max have lost
I don't know who's feeling worse. It's probably this one a cave versus usp at range
The worst part is, when he taps this.
Yeah, that.
He just taps.
He just taps, he had his gun out and everything.
Oh, la la.
They were probably feeling exactly like we were.
Like this game, like, whoops back on.
Full time.
Exactly more.
Crosshole.
What?
Come on, man.
Oh, crosshole.
Crosshole?
No, right now, it's pain to chocolate.
Yeah.
Pain to chocolate.
Pado Chocola e Chocolate Shows
Hey close the flaps word you mercy bocoupe
Mercy bocoupe
Bonjour
Jean-Mapel Hugo
Ounassiette de Fritz
Mercy
Oh as if they're not suffering enough in the server
Hard on
Montseer
I'm a fredged dude from production this quit in this class.
Well, Antoine's TDing this one.
Sorry, Antoine.
Get out of there.
Yanko's MVP.
I guess one.
One, is that gonna...
He's not gonna cut it.
He's not gonna cut it.
He's gonna cut the Dijon.
Come on, sir.
Come on.
I said I said I sat on his derriere
Still though
Not be having that
Be gone and save it's a that's gone
Ah, shit.
They're shaking off the USP. I don't know who's winning. Nobody does. It's the Mongols. It's 11-9 soon enough.
Gun rounds not an issue for 3D Max. So at this point
they're just hoping that there's enough economy for the Mongols where they can just keep buying
until the end of the game so they can just keep beating them.
But so they want to win rounds obviously, but not mega convincingly they always want to keep to
The mongos players at the very least alive
So they can keep buying they can keep winning rounds if the mongos are back
The pistols at any point in time. That's the end right for three. There was some bad news for 3d max
exercise
fellow
13 and what six
He's now 14 15
good point oof
Remember when you had the Mag7? It was all going so well.
Ah, yeah, I started buying rifles. That was the next day.
Yeah, big problem.
It's not his fault his teammates are dying for pistols.
It's also valid.
He's doing his part.
I think everyone's room could use a little wallpaper.
Yeah, like, Exo's are really blowing my...
Yeah.
He's set the bar so high, guys.
What did he do?
No, he blew my mind. Not anything else.
Just left that one out, I was just clarifying, I thought it'd be good to know.
Can't think of a word of police around tonight.
Yeah, yeah, this is getting scary.
Oh, this is a fun one, Jay.
And then they're like running up the ramp and stuff.
Where are they?
That's it, guys.
It's time for there it is. There they are.
Right on time.
Beautiful.
Alright.
Wow.
Yeah.
Nice to see you come back to life.
Take no, set up, up close SMG, he gets deleted.
He's going, he's going.
As soon as you're just charging in through multiple layers of fire, there used to be a
little too hot for him and the rest of the team in tow smokes everywhere.
Who's winning this round?
3D Max.
Mongols.
No other options available.
Plug that part down.
It's good.
available. Bug that pond down. It's good. Fun sight to retake. I mean that forces a
ecstasy into a weird one. He'll use the smoke. Makes sense. Makes sense. Makes sense.
Next crisis. He's dead.
Double up.
And if you pick Mongols, hang on.
One V three for the captain.
Ready to spam the moment they tap that bomb.
Low HP blocking, but he might think that's the diffuser.
Defuse being held and the Mongols get it.
Mad point. Rocked and loaded around away from the playoffs.
Good point.
I'm thinking like, why is the low players trying to body block?
But as soon as he gets the kill, that's when you think you've done that.
You've won the round.
Oh, I mean, at least they're on the diffuser, like versus Urea.
That was where Fallen got the 1v5.
Same scenario.
Oh, yeah.
This time they've learned their mistake.
And yeah, you're absolutely right.
You're very definitely, you know...
You knew where the crosshair was on the money
and so were the killed, made his assumptions and...
You know what they say about assumptions?
Hammer on!
Yeah.
This is...
I don't know, I'm like, the fuck is he?
Nooo!
A lot going on here, and it might be mongols graduating to playoffs.
You know, even when they wonder around it still feels a little stressful.
It ends up being expensive, it's not like they've got everything here in the fight
around the plate. A couple of SMGs.
I say the final round of play. There could be more rounds.
Harry's read the script though, it doesn't appear to be over.
I'm sorry, Harry!
in that little place with Dumbledore and the baby Voldemort still hatching a plan
be professor squirrel or can run weasel always way out of this situation
imagine that yeah I feel like it would this be impossible for 3d max is run
Anyway here we are. 9-10!
We are so back, unless Yanko's MVP.
No we can't.
Safe.
A has been very kind to 3D mags.
Do-do-do-do-do!
What's the Sitch?
That's good.
That was my text notification sound when I was a kid.
From Kim Possible.
Oh, yes.
What's the Sitch?
What, um...
It was...
Shigo or whatever?
What?
A lot of people...
Yeah.
Or fans.
Yeah.
What did you say?
Shigo.
character from Kim Possible.
Shaken Shigo? Yes, I think it's Shigo.
Green Lady.
Green Lady.
Yep.
Kind of the goat.
Kind of the goat.
Is that the same one from Shred?
No, he was like, that was a donkey.
Not the green lady.
Oh, the green lady, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, no.
Another one of the goats.
One of the goats.
Like if you make it like that.
You just said it's a donkey.
Are we OK?
I understand why I think we're
We brain-wrote ourselves today.
Okay, come on.
There's two rounds left in this game.
You're in the club too long.
At which point did we get two program monitors in one?
I actually like it. It's good.
Is anyone asking?
Why did he get a cereal bowl on his desk?
I'm still having breakfast.
Mongols are cereal.
They want to win this now.
I'm so serial.
So you just had quite a lot of success on his solo B adventures. He's pretty good for one.
You just had so much success today, I feel like. Every time they tried to go there, man.
That's why we've seen them come kind of stubborn on this 3A start.
It does look like they're going to be trying to test their luck at B or at least taking
this top banana space.
Technically, we've got a lot of work to do.
Lid still has all his nades, just use the flashers, techno, use the incendiary,
So they're still decent on B in terms of the utility to stop this hit.
Onward.
Blocked.
Last of the block smokes from the B player.
Still onward.
Death!
God flash.
Unless they make an infront play on A, this is still going to be tough to win from the Mongols.
He's up, he's up, he's quiet in, does well, dips away, nimble on the MP9, they're fine from Blitz, they're just running into the B side, there's nothing left of them, Mongols, sail to the playoffs!
Job done, Bosch, Bozinga, Ole Kapal!
They've done it, they've done it, they've won the playoffs!
Mongols looking really good, yesterday was a bit worrying against Miles, they got banged out of that head to head, but we know it wasn't good for them.
The Mongols were the one team that hadn't dropped a map coming in to the third day of this stage.
Now they graduate.
Yes, 3D Max took away Ancient.
That was a bit embarrassing, but a 2-1 and into the playoffs, go the Mongols.
Get Mara out of Mongolia, put them on a plane and get them in Stockholm right now.
Embarrassing, that's a bit hard.
3D Max is not a terrible team.
They are allowed to play good when a map parry, thoughts?
Yeah, I agree.
You know, man. This was a weird series all over. It was very, very broadly we know now that the Mongols can hit a little harder, I guess
I don't know. I think for me, it's a bit of a shame there for 3d max
They had so much success in the a plays B was like the one site. They couldn't crack
That's what they left it to in the final round of play big. What if what if they just kept hitting those a plays?
Maybe you drag yourselves into OT, but they still have more chances to read a max not out of the runnings yet
a chance to bounce back in the 2-2 all-or-nothing game.
What did I say earlier in this series?
I said 3D Max, they're the eternal 2-2 team.
They're not a team that we've seen lift trophies
or make deep runs and playoffs with top teams.
I mean, with the absence of vitality in Falcons,
I'm a little bit worried for 3D Max.
Is it going to be another final day of Swiss stage joke
or can they get a favourable matchup
and go through to the playoffs tomorrow?
We'll have to find out.
Only if they get faceclicked.
That's their only chance.
They beat teams with F.
They beat teams that started with F.
So only Faze Clan remaining out of the teams that they could face, because they already played Furya, beat them, played FOOT, beat them, as well.
So we'll see what happens there, but they'll be kicking themselves about that in the fair now.
I mean, three rounds lost to pistols.
One was a forced buy and one was a half buy and then there was the USP E-Call.
They're just a couple of upgraded pistols and one gun on Blitz.
That's like Hugo trying to speak French.
Embarrassing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Douglas or whatever.
Douglas.
Douglas.
There we go.
Oh man.
We had fun.
You're assuming though that Faze beat Astralis today.
Yeah, that's a big assumption.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
It's hard for a 3D match, right?
The hardest part is Faze getting to the 2-2 game.
Faze game yesterday was very exhilarating versus Monty.
And now we get to see them again versus Astralis in another one of these matchups
This is going to be the other side of the coin though
In the six that they've lost to and one one yeah
Face when they should not play off face when down zero two trying to pull it all the way back
Astralis have been up and down
Themselves, but feel like favorites just on form alone. I don't know. It's face who knows
No one knows. Yeah, they are like the ultimate just coin not even quite like more dice roll. Yeah, like not coin flip team
Yeah
Dice not like a lot like a d20 and it has to land on a six for them to be good
Yeah, it feels like Katana actually we're getting ready for a kind of Katana evening
Nice thinking about the anchor the seafarers. Yeah, I don't break anyone need break. No one
Please like someone take this
I wouldn't have ran some on the clone stage.
I think we're the only team to do that.
You look lonely.
I can fix that.
Hey!
Two more boys!
Two more!
Cologne 2014, the first ever major in Cologne.
You gotta speed up.
He's way over the limit.
This dude is spinning.
Calm down, little man.
We got bigger fish to fry.
Backshot.
You're the f***ing fungus, yeah?
I don't want to die, you bastard!
Get out of my way, you bastard!
Maybe an old guitarist will drop down, but a collider opens out!
Magic's popped off. I must be dreaming.
These are going to take a little adjusting to me.
Who is it you're talking to right now?
Who is it you think you see?
It's been a man on the street episode that I won't be forgetting anytime soon.
That much I can assure you.
My first server, I was a regular in this, you know, casual community.
KZ, OpIndia, some surf.
Is there a captain here who has a struts to face spirit?
Hopefully Sonny is going to say maybe one or two words.
Anything?
I'm feeling thank you.
Hmm!
Hey hey hey!
Hmm!
Hmm!
Hmm!
Hello?
We'll give you the world.
Forget simple hotel room.
The only anti-molding you need is Rewage.
And he's not in the cranks we're getting beat
EMOTIONAL BAT
I get hit right and now it's gonna end on catch
There's a spigot down the stuff I'm getting destroyed
I don't give a shit boys
No guy you've ever dated was like no I need to go play FIFA babe like yes I did
It is time for everybody's favorite. It's another installment of the DHL Drop Quiz.
Now we do have a new challenger entering the arena. Jason was so disappointed with
the showing in last week's quiz that he subbed himself in. He came in early just
for this very opportunity of taking home.
Four hours early.
Yeah, we don't have any Golden Cops anymore, Jason, but we can give you a proverb.
All right, well, it's not if you win.
If it's not going to be there, I might as well just leave.
Yeah, well, you worry.
I don't get out of bed for anything less than a Golden Cock.
Do you know the rules?
I think so, yeah.
OK, I'm going to give you the meds.
OK, yeah, yeah, they'd be great.
And there's going to be four options that are going to come up on your screen
because you guys at home can get involved in the action as always.
Put exclamation point, DHL drop, followed by ABC or B,
Depending on which answer you think is correct. Now once again, I did kind of maybe mess up the rules a little bit last time
Please let me finish the question and the answer and the answer
Time, you know, that's fair. Yes, I'm some time. I understand that okay question number one
This is all EPL thing. Oh, yeah. Yeah, actually yes
Okay, cool take the buzzer please can you buzz from the side because the buzzers have the same noise
And I really need to see who gets there first, right? I just need I need to be seeing everything
I can help you question the answer. Wait, we have different noises?
No way. Can you give him a test?
Just a little time.
Wow.
I need different pictures. Okay, this is really good a test.
You guys are incredibly deaf right now.
Okay, question number one.
In what year was season one of ESL Pro League?
Was it A, 2013, B, 2014, C, 2015 or D, 2016?
Was indeed you go? Oh, that would be 2015 Freya
That is
Thank you. No, I was there. Yeah
It was the Cologne studio and it was like 90. Well, I don't know what to be in European
But it is like 120 degrees inside the studio. That would be dead in your every season and some capacity
season you have this season I have this season which included yeah, I've been seasons a couple
I've been at the majority of happy about yeah, thanks
I should have been here really.
Probably the QQ guy, do you remember?
My first friend Harry, when were we getting together?
No, it wasn't.
No?
Was I on before you?
If we count in B stream...
Yeah, we count in B stream.
Uh, then it'd be one of the ones in the UK.
No, because we didn't go to B stream in the UK.
I don't think it was even necessarily in the UK.
We were in Lester doing B streams.
That's what I'm saying.
Okay, yeah.
Yeah, we were in the UK.
We'll get our best mathematician on the case to find out exactly what it is.
I want to say 20...
I want to say 2018.
Maybe.
Because my first ESL that was 2017 New York, so probably after that.
That's a good first event.
What's your team name?
I don't even know.
We don't know.
Yeah.
We don't know.
What's your team name?
Contribute, Harry.
This is your team name.
Contribute, Harry.
We don't know.
We don't know.
We don't know.
Question number two.
Which team has lost the most ESL Pro League finals?
This is a horrible one.
Is it A, Team Liquid, B, Na'Vi, C, Cloud9, or D, team by T1?
for D, Team Vitality.
All right, let's think about this one, Jason.
So it's not going to be Cloud9.
Definitely not going to be Cloud9.
Vitality feels unlikely.
Na'Vi liquid.
Might be liquid.
It's one of those two.
Na'Vi sounds nice.
They also won.
Na'Vi lost the second season in the grand final.
Maybe historic, isn't it?
Vitality wrote it.
There's no way you'll remember that.
You're just lying.
Yeah, they lost to Fnatic in the grand final.
I'm wrong.
There was a Fnatic time out,
and then they didn't do it like a B-Puff.
They lost to TechNines.
I don't know why that one round is still in there. That one round is still there. It's great
Would it be Navi do you think?
It's Navi or Liquid. Liquid had that 18 where they probably made two finals and got banged out by Astralis
They're like in the 2018 and they're like the same thing. Is it Navi?
I think it's Navi. I think I would go with Navi. Let's get it on. Let's get it on.
Jason says Navi, I'm trusting my captain. I don't trust him anymore.
Which passes over to Contribute Harry.
Alright, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's gonna be Liquid.
What's left of the options surely liquid cloud nine and team vitality
They don't lose
They've been around like liquid have been around longer. Yeah, I'm surely it's them
Contribute Harry. Ah, let's just go with club liquid liquid. That's indeed correct. Of course, Jason
So that's why
one one that's the score question three FNX was but never mind which team qualified
for season 23 but are facing in one tournament ban after withdrawing from
season 22 that's a great tactic a tyloon B that is pro see Lynn vision or DGT
now.
You can have it.
Uh, C, Lynn vision.
No.
That is correct.
Oh, no.
That is correct.
I just thought we can work along a little bit.
It wasn't through that part.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
There you go.
I mean, if you're answering a chat already, spoil us a lot.
It is indeed C.
That's really good.
Let's move on.
Question number four.
I'm just going to take a look.
And take a seat.
Yeah, take a look here.
Cool.
Which teams did not win a single series during this season of ESL Pro League
season 23?
Which teams did not win a single series?
Is it A, Sempify and NRG, B, Sempify and Game and Gadiators, C, Sempify and MAT or
D, NRG and Game and Gadiators?
I want to see them all again.
Sempify is one of them.
Yeah, you can bring them.
It's not Game and Gadiators.
Uh, MAT, Not Sure, NRG, did NRG go in 3?
NRG went in 3.
NRG and Sempify?
Yeah, pretty sure.
Okay.
Lock it in for her.
That is correct.
A sad correct, but a correct one.
It is a correct one.
Jason knows all of Benny's losses.
I know everything about North American losses.
Really?
Yeah, everything.
Apart from Team Liquid losing.
Apart from, yeah, that one was a...
Memory hold them.
Yeah.
What about NRG and LAT?
Yeah, what about them, huh?
What about them?
Those teams.
2-2?
2-2.
2-2.
I can't count it.
Yeah.
Skyling's really hard.
It's huge.
We might not even need the winner takes all the last questions.
We might not.
We actually might not.
We could just draw.
I don't think we're allowed to do that.
Question 5.
Who was the highest rated player during stage 1?
repeat stage one only obvious overall leak season 23 was a
lance the x-flout see miss Sutter or the community
um who is it it's a foot player yeah crab crab man had some
fantastic crab man he was only in stage one really really good games I think
we get your contributions to my contribution okay let's see I don't have to say yeah yeah yeah
this is correct per beanie that is correct
There you go.
Well done.
That's farman.
Congratulations.
Yeah.
I don't know the number, but he did really well.
The best, actually.
Question number six.
Now this is a money question.
Yeah.
How much money?
Lots of money.
How much prize money has been given out, excluding the current season, because it
hasn't actually left the bank account yet, over all seasons of ESL Pro League.
This is to the approximate nearest 250 kids.
There it goes.
Right.
numbers. Give me a month. It's a 16 million 750 thousand B 17 million 250
thousand C 17 million 500 the 1775. We got two economists here. Well, you guys
couldn't have like given a bigger gap. What is it? It's a million between
And A and D, are you joking?
Yanker has an economics degree and Harry tried to do economics and didn't let it
And Harry knows how much 2 plus 2 are
Yeah, I think, I don't know Harry, I think probably whoever come up with this question wants to glaze ESL, how much money they spent, so it's the biggest one
I have no other
Let's go D, 17, 750
No, it's wrong
to go with the second one.
The situation like this, it's never the biggest number.
It's always one below the second biggest number.
We're going to lock in C, please.
Yay.
No?
In a situation like this, it's never the biggest
or the second biggest number.
We're just pretending to be humble.
It's the lowest number.
No.
I guess, yeah, in a situation like this,
you take the left over, so I guess we'll go with B.
Yeah.
Wow, I can't believe you got it.
Right on the money.
Yeah.
Congratulations, yeah, it was rounded up from 17 to 4-6, and we'll be as good as we can.
Obviously, that doesn't account for revshare and everything else, so our number was up.
So that's why.
When I was 11, they said that I can be one of the best players in the world.
I chose to go full CS, just a sacrifice that I wanted to make to become the best.
Of course, it's a huge deal to be high-elon-faceted.
The best advice is that you need to love the game, in the end I'm going to be a good player.
They're in a corner!
Constant Bokeh, let's begin.
Recycule your baseline.
A thin black reticle began to spin.
A sequence of rows
Interlinked within roles. Interlinked within one system.
Roles. Have you ever been in a system? Roles. Do they keep you in a role? Cells? Cells.
Oh, you don't even smile.
Do you long to answer their questions? Fraggs. Would they understand if you did? Fraggs.
Fraggs. Where you're not performing your duties, do they reduce you to a number? Stats.
What's it like to hold the drop of someone you loved, interlinked?
Interlinked.
What a day, hmm?
You look lonely. I can fix that.
The flame mask on this...
The face you must ask.
I'm gonna kill you!
I'm gonna kill you!
I'm gonna fucking die!
I'm gonna kill you!
I'm gonna kill you!
I'm gonna kill you!
ESL presents the ESL Pro League partnership clip.
Intel.
Acer Predator.
DHL.
Zone.
from playoffs to getting played out. That's what's on the line here. It's Astralis has
taken on FaZe and this one's for elimination. No glory today trying to survive to the final
day of play at the league of pros season stage 2 season 23 there's a lot of numbers at play day
nine day nine yeah not to be confused with popular starcraft creator were astralis a stage one team
they were i haven't done a single astralis game this whole turn are they good i saw i saw this
stuff where hooks is whining yeah so the listening that's the only kind of clip i've seen of
astralis up until this point stage one they came through 2 1 monti 2 0ed heroic lost 2 0 to
foot and then 203d max so it's not been too bad not too shabby they've got revenge on foot in this
stage to open back so that's nice lost a thousand legacy weird notes with astralis though like foosie
sometimes going missing in these games you know like we're one where yabby was trying to be the
hero which felt crazy you said and the voice comes against mouths the other day like this is the
The worst series I've played in Astralis, you're saying?
Yeah.
I'm trying.
So, like, individuals that have looked really good and have been kind of paramount to the
success, having some quiet series, and that wasn't the case in Stage 1 where, like, Foozie
looked solid, offering his usual performances, Ryu was fine.
I talk about strong players not looking very strong, we've got FaZe on our screens
right now, they've been going through the mud.
True.
But, yesterday, two things have happened.
played really well individually, which he was talking about,
he feels like he's been underperforming lately.
And secondly, FaZe was really hyping themselves up.
They were really treating it as almost a land game
in the sense of how much they were invested,
how vocal they were.
They brought a ton of energy, I think obviously being 0-2,
really made them take all those things into account
and give it their all.
their role. So that was the biggest takeaway for me yesterday from their game against Alex.
Monty. It's you and Monty, right?
2-3-11.
Sorry, we thought it was me.
So, I think if they bring that same fire today, they have a chance. With that fire,
they might even make the playoffs.
I agree.
Alex are going to have to talk to the hand because the phase ain't listening.
they hit a play they hit a bounce back from zero to and take their way to the final day of stage two.
Let's see if they've got it in them. That's due to start this series off. It's phases map pick and
they start on the T side. If they bring that same energy that we saw yesterday the Yankees
discussing I think there is a real shot and then once again doing what phase two best which is
being cornered on the ropes and then finding their feet finding their footing. I think
Astralis are gonna pick him a good hard day's work though
See who's gonna get off to the flying start with a pistol
After the flash frozen uncrouches saves his teammates life who see it long
You won't last exactly that car again Jacob entries round done
Now I said day one of stage two
That I thought this would happen with phase I said oh two down embarrassing losses reverse sweet
Yeah, you did the phase way want to draw attention. Okay stare is doing the MC
He's fully coat the pistol. Okay. He's buying foods the open rounds, right? Okay. Yeah ready
Yes, we talked about this on the show
He needs one kill in these two rounds in order to get enough money to be fifty four hundred there it is
He can now wait. They can win this
Oh my god, they are winning this! 2v4!
Disaster!
Second round or...
Oh my goodness.
How do they win that?
I don't know if they know how they've won that.
I mean, the kills come through, the 10 second fuse.
Alright, give me FaZe voice comms now.
FaZe YouTube video coming out.
How we trolled the pistol round.
Yeah, he caps.
Crazy.
Alright.
Kaboom.
kaplow nice fucking eco we go
oh my god you come to see how what's that
little summit summit yeah I can sprout second round or you're not ready for
this you did it he dropped it over I got it though oh it's completely present
have head on and then he's gonna get run out by
the car again.
Get away, get away, get away!
It's close, it's perfect, it's perfect position!
Behind first.
How did he get better?
How did he do that?
Hooksy backed fan?
I don't even know if that fan has hooksy imagined it.
I think he wants to block the exit.
Does the player have to be able to get past him?
one through only to shoot him in the back of the head well the pistol and its
second round have already looked like Astralis so I've got you know a little
bit of special power come back he killed frozen first who was still in the
That's gnarly
I feel like I know what I did
It's full lucky, but whatever
Yeah, no luck
Who's against the hell then?
All good in the hood?
We're back
Harry, did you grow up in the hood or in the suburbs?
The suburbs
Of course you did
Do I see it like...
like a hoodlum.
Hugo, did you know in the hood or the suburbs?
Yes, it was quite at the Lord of Kent here.
I might have had a hood.
Oh, wow, everything's just coming up
with Stralis smoke span through the doors.
Your deagles aren't going to have too much luck on your searches.
and you get two chances onto Yabi but he had the perfect rassy angle
but it's kind of getting this flushed away
watch out for the wrangles
we were talking about the other day when we had the G2 Navi game on
this was two years ago
this would be really exciting
you know and if this was nine years ago
same thing
but it's right around when Hugo did his first TSL event
Yeah, wow the history as the talent manager for New York
The cast of that do you know I cost that with Alex how me you're not left and then you're not left and then
Why did I sound Swedish? He's not right?
Oh, no, that's good. Yeah, that was good. That actually was good
Where was Harry?
He hadn't made it yet. Yeah, I hadn't made it. You were making a wanted Hugo not me
Classic.
Oh, you're not.
The better guy won.
You said that.
I had to wait till the other thing happened,
since I got Marja.
Yeah, someone eventually
self-destructed it.
An opening for Kalimstin.
That's how it goes.
18 months.
Would you another one soon, I reckon?
Who's gonna be?
Chad, public, crash out.
I'm going to deadpool for it.
Alright, I don't know where to retake, but I'm going swimmingly here.
Drowningly maybe.
That was a ballsy call from Kerrigan.
Being in the first gun round, being 3-0 down, just a B rush.
Hey.
Exits.
It works, it works wonders.
Yeah, let me show you the door.
How do I change the song on my head?
How do I change?
Play a new one.
Okay.
I'd like to shuffle someone's house.
It's just hand.
Yeah.
Xbox off.
Yeah.
We were playing a game where it has like cross-player, there was some guy who was just the worst
human being on an Xbox and it shows you and we just kept yelling Xbox on Xbox off and then he disconnected from the game
And came back like two rounds later. Oh, it's so good
It's a definite recommend trying that you have any adversaries on the Xbox
No one's in a position to throw the flash
No, they've actually let new flashers for this
Like earlier, but they don't even throw on arrogant the fight straight up to be pop looms
real ready
And that's a shut down
Mow down to the be here. I'm I never peaked as well. He's new he wouldn't be clear
Let's him out
That was a limp pop. I will say
That's POP
opposed to
Limp pop sounds like a SoundCloud rapper. Yeah, limp pop
Little in
Are you ready?
Are you know, but sometimes the good the good lineups
Accidental good. I'm by the way, I'm desperately trying not to say his name cuz we say it differently what?
What?
Ryu.
Ryu?
See I said Ryu and then JL cracked me said Ryu.
But that's...
We spoke to him.
I don't think it's the accent thing.
We spoke to him.
Oh.
And Jason spoke to him.
And he said he didn't care.
No, he said Ryu.
What?
That's how you actually say it.
That's crazy.
That's JL lying to me.
JL said that...
There was a lot going on for him that time.
JL said that Ryu said to him to pronounce it Ryu.
Yes, that's what he said.
Okay.
All say yes, man. They don't know what they want.
Who do you trust more, JL or Jason?
I didn't speak to Ryo slash Raiu.
I mean, I don't think it matters.
I think you can say however you want.
I think it's saying Ryo for 2.20.
Yeah, then do it.
It's just my brain can't do that.
I don't know the fighting game character.
And most of the words that start with RY sound like Rai.
That's bad.
Like the town.
That's why Jason wants to call him that.
It's a fan of some Rai whiskey.
Yeah.
Right.
Oh, I have a nice class of Rewisky.
Ree.
Ree.
Ree.
Not just me really mad, because...
This is my friend, Rian.
Rian Johnson.
Rian.
You made Star Wars good.
Yup.
Flying Rian out this week?
Of course, let's not forget the oldest, youngest billionaire, Rian Johnson.
You know you're setting up the riot.
Wait, what do I call him?
Oh, real, real.
What's his real name?
Let's just do a whole brand of...
Real, real...
Real, real...
Let's just do a whole brand of...
Oh, that's harder.
Are you sure?
Share with the class.
Um...
I don't want to try.
Janko, help me out here.
Uh...
It's a little harder.
Geetys, the Lushouskas.
The Lushouskas.
There you go.
Geetys, the Lushouskas.
Breathe it in.
Through the smoke.
Rookie, baby.
The Latvian player on the side of a Stralis.
Yep.
Versus Geetys, the Lushouskas.
known as Geetys. Get it. Right. Get it right. Oh, he's always got it. But what if, oh,
but what if yes. What if they already wanted to be forced away from the door? What if we
try? What is the plan? Second, he probably gonna just wait for exits and take his open
save oh that's exciting he just wanted to kill he got the spray down he with the
head time you're going his French again
3D Max is over you need to say with your Danish out but God knows how Hugo
would take that
that's the best way
to rob a pastry
oh
holy shit
it was a nice try
from fozy
oh no
that is how he wants it
fozy
oh a bit of fun
get out of my way
Sage.
It's a gamer again.
We're naming Herbs.
A gamer.
Keeling.
Yeah, that one was made.
Little chicken reference there.
Yeah, a gaming chicken.
Keeling, cooling.
This is a new plan.
We'll call this one the stair.
He's got three nades.
He's on the stair master.
Yeah, just taking little steps.
Burning calories.
pump pump it up a little more like a monster
flash
swing
plate
kaboom
kaplow
kaboom
and back on the stairmaster
Really content with this passive setup, Astralis let's see if A's will come up with a solution
for it, not too much utility left, Fuzi with the AWP posted up, he's going to feast soon.
One flash on twist.
It's a good shot to open.
Fuzzi gets to hang around.
Might want to overstay as well.
Kippen on the long fullback twist
has crept out wide, meaning Fuzzi's out of this one.
Still a mad up for Astralis.
Oh, miss shot.
Everyone's wanted to see this all pad to head.
Hoocsi versus Broke.
But it's the fight down in towards the spawn.
Hoocsi has the edge.
Why does he leave the angle?
He had that.
Oh, thanks too much.
They want to throw this post one, right?
No, but it's no health.
Get out of there.
Getting swung, getting hunted down.
And it's going to be the hero, Jacob, to close it down.
This is where we get this or something.
Geetis. Geetis. Geetis.
Geetis Glushauskas.
Glushauskas. Glushauskas.
Glushauskas.
Shelskis
This is awkward
It was just a bit of
like over there in this
Same energy same energy energy's good
That's a lot of flashes. Yep. He's out of there. He's not really just around the corner in time
BAH!
Right now, we've got it now.
Nope.
Oh.
The inevitable demise of the USB.
Ooh, that's a first map timeout right however I heard one.
So can that.
tie game our phase back that's what everyone's wondering everybody ask me
everyone thinking Karigan might retire soon well if they make playoffs I just
need one more big right all finger to all those people in a way not really
in a way it is carrying forever
carrying forever because he played Batman yes there we go another good link
you know me genius Harry
Freya can throw that smoke and that Molly we're gonna be testing her later on
today if we take all those many players need a long extended bathroom break or anything
like that. It's the bloody cameras. What do they call that? The allegation cameras or something?
Yeah. So those ones I think. Ooh, nice, solid as a rock. Shut down after once, maybe not.
Bombs across though. Wait, look. There. How has he got away with this? Pfft. Gets his
boots on the ground and had a chance on to twist but now this later I will
remain it's not the weapon but long-range MP7 not to be slept on does
damage as well to Hoocsee. Twist would need a 4k to clutch up so why is not
planting any ideas he could be close he could be okay when looking for Hoocsee
in case he was close out in the open at the chance that the trade of Hoocsee
hung around it's given him a lot of time to reposition so once twist kind
of sees the fade calls it clear Hoocsee might be able to catch a little
bit of a timing but okay how does twist kind of piece together this
info yeah yeah just in time just nice shot over the top of the box and twist
takes heads off yeah it's off okay he's giving it a round of applause there
beautiful so you know it was a good play four kills in the round from mr.
dalkin can't do that can you stand dalkin just cuz it's double barrel you
can't remove half the barrel. One of the barrels. One of the barrel. One doesn't mean Mr. In-Touch.
Oh no! Van probably means something else. Let's go, let's fucking mumble. Just like
energies, right? Yeah they are, they're trick. No, no we're usually here. Yeah it's not
dejected, it's not low, it's very much similar to like what we've grown to expect from
land phase. But I suppose that's, you know, that's probably the conversation
They're going through their land phase right now.
Symptoms include lower bracket runs.
Tech pauses.
Tech pauses.
Nice boys.
A lot of nice boys.
Okay, this is not what I was going to learn, but it's a nice way to keep the short player back.
I just want the one for the you know closed doors, you know, they do one from that corner uncrouch one
Yeah, the uncrouch middle click. Yeah, I started throwing it from waiter amidst be on budget. Yeah. Yeah, I could do that one
So sometimes I don't want to brave the cross, you know, yeah, I don't have it
No, couldn't find it and he's getting it. Oh, it's like a smudge or something. I was looking at a zoo
We're doing it yesterday. I was trying to
Everything on dust is like line up with this smudge
Little dirt. Oh
Oh, you lined up with the wrong smudge.
Oh.
Ooh.
Okay.
Smudging of info here.
It's the ball.
It's the ball.
Stop angering out of mid.
Oh, God.
This is getting away from Faizley.
Wrestle back to control on this player out through the doors.
Take that range for Hoocsi and a Tunnels flank moving in.
Hoocsi's just going to play for time, Lend, as much as he can of Yabbi.
Surely Yabbi's got a bow.
Yeah, just throwing in.
Five, seven.
On for the back stab.
Tap for the first.
All right, it's down to Jacob in this one V1. It's Jacob. Are you going?
Pardon. Oh, just running out of five seconds. Oh
Who's he running away there?
Not sure like another time was over. He gives the info Jacob
Was a good read out middle
Had to I mean I guess who's he had to be there with Jacob's passing if he's not he loses either way
Jacobs committing looks awkward for Brokey, but they only saw one player on shot and the
Deagle came in and then four guys run around the corner and he backs up with a bomb.
I was almost thrown around that wasn't thrown so, in phase, running away with it right now
Now this is a 4-1 lead, four rounds, five rather in a row.
Happy, given my position, I still know he's here fucking inside the box,
so I've carried and had a chance, but that burn tickles him.
Rookie helping mid and Stralis.
Might.
No.
What goes back to B?
They've got to start throwing some short flashes when they go for the lower controller.
How many times do you die to this all-boosted Paul Jacob just getting fed to it?
I'm curious how this upper B push is going to interact with Karakin calling the troops
back over to B.
Oh, well, now the jig is up, but you do lose your AWP.
That would have really been proven useful in these kind of fights, but this kind
of range.
Shots.
Frozen's hitting everything.
Yeah, beat down, and that's the site gone.
Astralis a fumble again.
He's ugly.
I really was jump scared there.
I guess he didn't know the player was close till he heard him.
And he won the round still.
They shouldn't expect a third guy in B.
He's just caught A-D-ing.
Some ugly rounds right now for Astralis.
R costing them in the long run.
Face building up.
A tremendous T side.
They're so back.
I'm never willing to write them on or off.
They are back like a dog's dinner.
I really wish that if FaZe wins this game, like what we should do for tomorrow,
we should get some of their voice comms from the first two days.
Like just find some examples where you can tell they're like
low on energy and a bit, you know, like there's a bit of whining in there, a bit of...
and like that, this and that.
And then why didn't we contrast it to this game and the game from yesterday and, you know, sort of paint the picture for people at home, the difference.
I think Twist is good at that as well. You'll always hear it's him doing all the loud hype man stuff.
He's also playing well, performing good. Your hymn kind of hyping the team up.
And they did look dejected, just a bit sad in those first couple of games.
But I think as well whenever you've seen those like many why we failed in certain event name
here videos like Karrigan's also great in those circles, you know, like trying to lock
everyone back in focus on the task ahead.
There's a lot of players in this team who can try and uplift the vibe.
Yeah, I also want to say I'm not a fan of this timeout because this is their second
timeouts and I only have one for the T side and you're already losing 7-4 so at
best it's 7-5 like you still need a lot of rounds in the second half so you that
that timeout might come in handy down the stretch if you were able to save it
like I'm not saying this round is insignificant but in reality looking at
the big picture and the fact that the halftime is around the corner so you
You would get time to talk anyway.
Yeah, any adjustments you make, you better win this last round.
You better win this round, as well as I'm saying.
Fruity Scout Car.
High low on B, gives me nades.
Well, we'll see.
Just nades.
For now, just nades.
Oh, that's nice.
Oh, very nice.
60 damage.
On the reload, they run, flash for his fight, just through the flames, he's going to get
hectic.
Karakin faces so much ground, the stairs still finds him, stands his.
Wrap it up.
wrap it up looking like this one's fallen flat for phase
an important one for astralis coming in with an extra round seven to five a competitive score
line a less bro key and twist can make a two versus four a reality
play through this smoke locks them out of the 2b5 attempt and so astralis the pause wasn't in vain
They will get that fifth round on the board at least.
A fresh development in the cards as FaZe look to take the longest road to try and save themselves
after the O2 start.
There's 7-5 up right now on Dust2.
Pretty good place to find themselves there, Janko.
Absolutely.
Here you just have to be careful, Shriles could still steal this one away.
That's weak.
Yeah, like the robber.
Is it there on 7?
Yeah.
Yeah.
A double linkin.
We are doing a time thing today.
It's a Catalan type day.
Yeah.
And we are running up the girth of mid.
No, we're not changing my mind.
Change their mind.
They're going to...
They're going to...
They're going to...
Anybody down there?
We have to be yanko at Catalan.
One day, when I'm grown up, a white kingdom, down with the whites, yeah man, rise up the
reds.
The reds, all the oranges, all the oranges, both strong, both seafaring peoples, the islands,
I'm going for the islands.
I'm not, I'm staying away from the, I think they're a red herring.
I know a yank, no that's not.
Come on, something's about to happen.
Yeah, pushing to the tunnels.
Oh, you're mad, you're mad that he's just standing there, perfectly placed across
there.
you on your adventure. You lost all your provisions. They are over-encumbered so they cannot move.
Who's he? He's caught out in no man's land. It's FaZe Clan land.
Keep calm and carry gun. Give us a fourth lad. Go on, Jacob steals it but nobody's complaining.
Karrigan and Jacob with all five.
Feels like I'm Alice in Wonderland because that was some weird shit going on in that pistol round.
Oh! That's good.
It's like I get it, they killed the guy clearing B.
But I don't think they caused enough of a ruckus off of that kill to start the rotations for face class.
It was very quick too.
When you go long instantly they're sort of like, oh okay, so that's just the lurker.
So we don't need to go anywhere.
Then you miss the smoke.
That's going to start.
That's going to cause some wines.
Yeah.
That is what a lot of the hooks.
And I'm not talking about the shot to know of the pop type, Alex.
Yes.
There's no way.
When you're going to go down, you're going to miss the smoke, man.
Wow.
You actually added a little bit of Danish flair to it.
Oh, that was really nice.
Oh, my God, I was ready.
I've known Yankee a long time.
I've never heard that.
No, dude.
That's the first one.
We all know all the impressions.
I've never had a heart for these.
Oh, it actually was a good Danish wife.
It was.
Yeah.
Oh, plenty of time to whine away in this tech pause.
It is phase.
So we'll be here for a couple of hours.
Why are you getting further away?
Is it moving?
Of course.
Phase plan.
Yeah, we all remember this.
Oh, we are funny.
Oh, we are funny.
We are funny.
Look at this.
It's not a tech pause.
We don't even care.
It's the first one.
I'll see you.
I'll see you.
I'm just hoping it ends.
Yeah, his friend's dead in the game.
Can we check on him?
Let's make a game.
I think it's also, this is a good bit as well.
It's like, well, why are we saying
because this is called much further and further away,
as Trice is getting from the playoffs.
Hey!
It's here, hey, hey.
Man, and dude, we all thought, well, maybe not all of us,
but we thought there was a good chance
that they would get there.
They did good coming into this event.
There's not, you know, a lot of the top dogs missing.
My talent.
He's playing later today.
Yep.
Top dog?
Listen.
My boy.
Yeah, I think for us, the biggest thing was,
you could tell they were a dead team walking last season.
Right? So, I don't know if it was knowing that
the players were on their way out,
or you knew that wasn't going to be the roster in any case,
the players just didn't mesh all that well together.
But this year, you know, it's a different look on LAN,
on the tournaments, the player camps, right?
And I like the additions of Ryu and Fuzi, you know, like bringing in some Flare Ryu with some very good aim, good mechanics, right?
Fuzi, as he said himself, just the consistency is the issue, but when he does pop off and has a good game, he can definitely find impact.
So now they're looking a bit more like a team again.
I think as well, like, because I think it was, who's he saying, like, it's good to have hungry players again, like guys who want to win everything?
He's been in like a good candidate for that because this guy's been down a up and move anywhere in the world if it meant he could play CS
True yeah, he's got a very been to when a been to Asia back in Europe is it like Counter-Strike LinkedIn profile is great
Yeah, it just doesn't even sound real. What do you mean? You're on a Chinese team. Is that just a steam profile?
Or from LinkedIn to locked in phase in the lead
I
Want to see be stamp or here you go
Of Danish wine and I try this back hold me around here
I need me that's for sure. They have a need a need for me
And I'm in a week
Looking for a weak guy in Stockholm. It's trapped in honor
I'll do three sheep for one week. Oh, that's a tough bargain
Nice
He's looking to bleeds down on Astralis here 3v4 situation and they lose the long man and twist
Oh, it's the fight on his own this kill means a lot. They've taken cat. He has to move
Yeah, he was ready
But where's maps for yabi that was a tool for one there from yabi
All is a strong play
It is yeah more than one that's pretty good rounds easier. No one's denying that
Fact of life.
Always get yours.
And sometimes, get to what else is.
Hmm.
Deep.
Hmm.
Cheap.
Hmm.
There.
Wheat.
Bleat.
So yeah, we're going for like a more abstract improv style.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know.
It's yes and maaah.
You know, like it's like at that extra level.
You know, you just kind of make sound with your mouth.
Don't sing a song that I haven't just caused.
He's got it.
I played it.
I'm sorry.
Harry didn't know the song.
I didn't know the song.
Neither did I.
I hadn't listened to it.
I just picked it up through, like, Osmosis.
The context clues.
Yeah, Osmosis.
You know, someone else reads it.
He tapped in on the...
I'm not.
I'm not on the TikToks.
I get them, like, six months later on Reels.
That's what I get.
Fairies.
I'm raging if I'm shaking right now, it is.
It's hot on the shoulder, it is.
Alright, little mid creep.
He's on his own.
Oh!
That's such a lovely play.
It's the same thing to Monty.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
At the time I think there was a flash involved in that.
Eight eggs later?
If the little head-duck animation it cost Karrigan that kill I'd be triggering.
Well I think of Karrigan in the pit against 3D Max, was that the picture?
Yeah.
That was yesterday against Monty.
He did do some crazy things in the pit, yeah.
The 3K.
What was in spawn?
Already kind of an uncomfortable T-start for Astralis.
Astralis falling into a pit of despair.
Truly.
with how this game has been going it's not trending in a positive direction
foosie and stair one or two before to kick off this game do they have one more in them
On the 8-1 side, if we won, well, 1v1 now.
7 HP now.
Oh, the bomb isn't long.
Aaaand go.
Phased are doing it.
Make no mistake, this is what doing it looks like.
10 to 6.
They're in pole position, Hugo.
They're right by the finish line, you could say.
just rounds away from crossing it in this map over and done with no issues and
then they're halfway to the playoffs because they're in Finland and Finland
is Jason too so geographical number for you there the finish line oh okay
these times the anchor jokes actually require like too much intelligence you
could like I don't know if you thought about writing for Rick and Morty
No.
I know that's a shock to you.
Has it cost your mind once?
No, writing of any sort.
You actually have to be really high, cute at the same time.
You do though, but actually,
not even as the meme.
That's the finish line, bro.
It makes so much sense.
That's just such low hanging.
I know what he's talking about.
Buttering you up so you can make good deals with you later.
Yeah, that's true.
Yeah, very, very loves to bring real life into Katan.
I do.
Oh man, I'll push some wheat.
That was very nice.
Oh!
From wheat to wheat on this peep-on sight, unless it's Jake.
No!
Like a muller.
Two kills, that pistol will get run down.
3v3.
It's winnable for everyone, in a way.
Smoke is gonna cause chaos and...
Oh!
That's chaos manifested.
Not ideal. Just ran straight through the smoke as opposed to kind of pathing into it.
I was hoping that there'd be no one on the other side of it.
Is that made?
Save.
It's a shame.
But, uh, yeah, it's going to be a straw.
It's kind of taking a step towards the finished line.
Not to be confused, of course.
I can't say I'm too in a Moscow mule.
I can't say.
I can't say I'm too angry about that
play from Kerrigan, right? Like even if you wait and play the 3v3, what did they
have? There's a smoke left on Twist and there was an incendiary and there was a
flash. I don't know if that's enough utility in a 3v3 to flush them out and
win the retake. It feels like took them a long time to get rid of Jacob. The
timing wasn't bad for Kerrigan. Just maybe the flash wasn't ideal and
sometimes just that's how the cookie crumbles. So if they can't get these
exits that's still a good round for a phase all things considered
Plow
Alex you know one of them is it cakes is that what they are little text bars
It's having a little snack because didn't they used to sponsor nip back in the day. Did they I?
Nip had their own version of these McDonald's no idea also the McDonald's thing
There was also a British sniper if they for infused
And um, in Colt 4 Pro mod and his name was Kex, named after this exact treat.
Cause I always wanted to have them.
Because of the nit guys.
But then I ate them.
And it's fine.
But it doesn't taste like winning, like I thought it would.
How does winning taste, Harry?
Um...
Who you at least.
I don't know if I've ever tasted it.
In your life.
I'm looking this up, hang on.
What, the taste of victory?
There you go, yeah, look.
But they hold it like he was one of ours.
So they had McDonald's deals, and they were sponsored by like maybe
that's not Kex, but it's just.
Like read the bottom.
Wait.
They really hit this branding.
Yeah, but I think Kex also just means like a cookie
slash biscuit slash whatever.
So that just means chocolate.
So it was just nipped chocolate, nothing to do with Kex.
Yeah.
chocolate chip cookie or something.
I love the pearl exposeship right now though.
I don't feel short.
Oh, there it is Alex.
That's a new one.
That's actually way easier.
Did you see it?
Sort of, I'll probably forget it.
This is very thin.
It looks a lot easier.
You can do the uncrouch.
We also streamed on the left behind it.
Yeah, that's what you want.
That's the good stuff.
Okay, I'm pretty sure I could throw that.
The three things I wanna learn
and I think I could probably work it out is that
and the like Z yellow CT smoke
where I can do it when I'm like at the door, you know, as opposed to being behind.
Oh, like, you mean on the shadow?
You say you use the shadow, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It should be super easy, yeah, if you just throw it.
I want both of those in my repertoire.
Enfance.
What's that molly achieve?
Anyone know?
Nope.
Okay.
I could just nest for the...
Cubby Cubby.
The fence here.
Fence.
That is actually us.
What if you're hiding in the second cubby?
Oh, wow.
You're not really hiding, then, are you?
And these are the spokes that Freya knows.
Can't throw him when it's smoked though.
Oh, oh no.
Amidst done.
Drop Jacob and there's text chat going.
That's what you get for being too damn good at using utility.
I think we play on.
I think you have to.
That's a bum.
Lucky.
It's still winnable. 25 seconds of strides taken so long.
You face up the right stack.
They don't, but it doesn't matter.
Frozen doubles up in middle.
Drop through the spawn.
it in trouble, but ugly spring effort. He can throw them win this round. They might not
need Jacob to be to bomb drop. It's done. Just live run away. Riu Riu in hot pursuit.
Nate does connect, but he's not going for it. I mean, he couldn't win it anyway. Are
you kidding me? They win it without him phase. Do their best work at EPL while Jacob's
just watching. It's good to go back to season 22. That's good. It went 45. I had to real
feel good round, brother. You're the guy to drop out 45. You still win it. He comes back.
Do you wonder if they would have gone mid to B if it wasn't Jacob dropping? You think
about that? But they were on cat. They're also, you know, they could, it could have
been the call, but they're on cat as well. Something updates. They are a 200 IQ. Jacob
disconnect now. They'll be a mid to be everyone's. But like they did just drop
into mid to be the seconds I actually dropped they went for it that is some
like Moriarty level Calcutta James try you know the anchor drops but you're all
there no to disconnect from the server they know you're so low you can be a
last do that is that well I mean I don't think it's against the rules to
leave the server play for people next level mind games here we're gonna ruin
Counter-Strike with a new meta-revolution, we're going to have to add a line.
You've got six man teams or a thing, what about four men?
When are we going to hit the days where we stop, you know, here it is.
What is it, wait, okay.
Middle click, middle click.
Middle click like that?
That's a middle click.
Thank you, EVS.
Or is it?
I couldn't tell it was a slow mode.
It looked like a middle click.
Yeah.
Because it kind of looked like a middle one.
Yeah.
Oh my God, he's just resting guys, he's okay.
When are we going to have positionless Counter-Strike?
And that doesn't need to be fully like random, but like we, we ever see teams,
You always think about it as a joker, right?
The third player who's in the wrong position,
who's not expected.
What about when we have like one guy who can play
or two guys who can swap positions back and forth, right?
I'm just surprised we haven't hit that point yet.
Break the name.
Oh!
Broke he set around.
Two lovely deliveries with the AWP
and the Tec-9s get nothing either.
This is dumb.
FaZe have got a Stralis booked.
FaZe are gonna win their map hit.
That's cool.
And that's a surprise.
something I wanted to ask you about as far as like his face open picking dust
here is their map for quite long they've been picking everything yeah trying to
find their map pick of sorts and it's not they're picking everything oh we're
gonna punish different teams for different things no it's more like
we are trying to figure out what we do that and has been some dust too lately
with mixed success but hey because they want yesterday I think it was
because Monty picked yesterday's game and today they pick it themselves against Astralis
Facebook overpassed V Monty, they picked Dust2VPain, they picked Dust2VG2 and Dust2VN
there's three out of four Dust2VP for FaZe and maybe they would have done it against
Monty because they picked first
It's fallen out of love with Nuke haven't they?
Like that's not been their friend
Used to be a Cadence table for a long time
I can clue they picked mirage against Astralis. They picked
ancient against parry vision
They picked so they are against falcons
Trying at all and they picked ancient again against heroics right now. It's dust it. Yeah, all right
They kind of freestyle that clue
Are you wanted positionless CS? What about puller?
We can play more like this
Well, that's too looking good right now phase chances to close
And that's more than enough surely with how this game's gone bit of aggression out in the top mid deagle removed
Where the abbey walkie they go and deal with him
They're in a lower tunnels who's he dead as well
He's forgotten about
as a strollers
Just wrap it up wrap it up
Start wrapping 3v1
You should have this in the back
I'm facing let's not troll stop rapping. Yeah, stop rapping for a second. Yeah, go down
And walk it all the way back
Oh, no!
Banks down for Karatio!
There it is!
Phase Clan, locking in 13-7, Dust2 runaway success continues to be kind to them.
And now I'm up in this series.
It's Astralis Staring Elimination, dirt in the face.
Be all.
Nice! Let's go!
A, J, one more, B! I'm going mid, ok?
B, B, B, B, B, B, B!
Upline!
I had a pull
Go left, go
Nice

Don't pin it lower.
I'll go back to B.
Now, short guys.
Dead long one.
Walked out.
One step mid.
I'll go on B.
I'll go on B.
Yeah, I'm just going to mid.
Yeah, I'm just going to mid.
Yeah, I'm just caught in mid.
Yeah, I'm holding in.
One short.
I need you short.
I'm on push.
I'm going long now.
You're going in.
I'm long.
One dead.
One dead.
I'm behind him.
He's probably outside.
I'm going to feed.
I'm holding ramp.
Nice!
Let's go!
Nice, nice.
Thank you.
We've got phase versus
astralis and I do indeed have
Fuzi on the line to go through
ancient second map of this
series before we dive into
obviously you played FaZe, a PGL, inclusion poker very recently, look pretty easy for you guys.
Can you kind of give me a take away of that series and then coming into this rematch?
Yeah, I know it felt pretty easy also. I'm not sure if we just had a good game or if they had enough game, you know, maybe both.
There were some sticky situations on Ancient. We lost some 1v3, I think was Broke-y, stuff like that.
Also a bit to be expected when you play versus face to have their face magic, you know, so
Yeah, you never know what to expect when phase around during this but they've gone with the different maps us to that's gonna be a first map of this series
But I want to go with your map pink you mentioned ancient play it last time around
Let's go through your CT positions. Let's start with yourself. Where are you situated?
I'm just everywhere. I mean normally I'm
I'm throwing the elbow smoke for the mid guys and then either I throw nades for them
in the mid and help them take the mid fight or I'm towards A or B, you know, I'm just
yeah.
A little round guy.
Is that a position you've always played in previous teams as well?
Was that something you had to get used to on this Astralis?
No, I think it's the, I think that's usually how the upper plays.
So yeah, maybe a little bit more leaning towards A, but yeah, I bet everywhere.
Okay, good stuff. Let's go with your in-game leader, Hoaxi.
Yeah, he's in cave on the B side.
Lovely. I mean, classic kind of for some in-game leaders.
Then Yabi, let's see here.
Yabi, he's in mid. He's more the A guy.
So you can put him in donut, yeah.
Yeah, lovely, lovely stuff.
Yeah, he's also in mid with Jabby, the Danish duo, right there, so yeah.
Pop him together with him.
Oh, and then we've got a rogue stare over there, sorry.
And then finally, Ryu.
Where's he at?
Ryu.
He's locking down the b-sets, just killing them all when they go there, so.
In terms of like comms that you need as the upper playing mid, what's like the number
one thing on your list of info that you need to get your job done the most successfully?
I mean, usually the Danish duo, they just say what they need from E-Ride, like maybe we're expecting that this T-Side want to fight mid or maybe we want to take the control of mid, then they say, okay, come flash from me here, I'm like, sure, whatever bro, go kill them, and then maybe if we expect something towards B, I'll start B, you know, and I'll just kill them there, you know, so it's...
I'm just a guy being dragged around for where we need help, basically.
And just in terms of when you've so recently played a team on this map,
again, you've doubling down, choosing this once again versus FaZe.
Is there any kind of tendencies you noticed about how they wanted to play,
or do you expect something completely different from FaZe this time around?
I'm not sure, to be honest.
We thought that they would maybe ban it since we wrecked them so hard on it last time.
So, yeah, I mean, we're always ready for a nation, but maybe we want to play something else.
Well, let's see what they have in store. Thank you so much. It's time for Uzi. Good luck.
Thank you. Have a good one.
Awesome. Thank you, man.
Damn guys, we almost had that.
Thank God that's over.
Board of endless matchmaking, take your first steps towards EPL.
Experiencing real strategies against teams of your skill, learn more at fce.gg.
When I was 11, they said that I can be one of the best players in the world.
I chose to go full CS.
It was the sacrifice that I wanted to make to become the best.
You don't need to play face, but you should.
The best advice is that you need to love the game.
In the end, I'm going to be a good player.
Hey future pros, back to ancient, this time with a smoke that will block off the CT angle
on the A side.
To throw the smoke, line up with the edge of this wall.
Aim to the left side of this extruding leafy bundle.
Then simply jump through the smoke.
easy and fast CT smoke that will land before your teammates even make it to the site.
So get this. Play this hacker in Premiere yesterday. And I'm supposed to be tryharding.
It's my round cup game. But instead, I just start grilling this guy on this triggerbot.
I'm just in disbelief, like how there's literally zero skill involved. All he does is he press
a button and he wins. And this freak is ruining hundreds of people's games a day. Like where
Where is the fun in that?
Alex!
And I'm getting madder and madder and I ask him, I look in the face and I say, how can
you sleep at night knowing you're wasting the time of nine other people?
Just so you can see what, a number go up and you know what?
He tickes me.
He doesn't say a word.
He just shoots me in the fucking head.
What the fuck is that?
Am I the one that fucked up in this scenario or is it this douchebag trying to make
me feel bad about myself?
Alex, we've talked about this numerous times.
You can't just come in and hijack the entire session.
I didn't hijack the session. Did I hijack the session?
Yeah, yeah you did.
Who are you?
I work in community feedback.
Good luck with that.
Alex, I know you've lost a lot of Velo this year.
Maybe you want to talk about that?
I don't talk about that.
Hold on.
Gotta take this.
Griz.
Yeah, no I know.
This guy's just ruining everyone's enjoyment of the game.
How long can that last? Bye, everyone
Well, do me a song hear that cracking up in a cold one Duncan you got a problem. Okay, Jack the test of that black monster
I'm gonna ask you again!
So just get on the ground, sir!
He waited, he waited, he waited!
And then he finished off the job!
I'm tired of your star player tilting.
Well, Trace, I've been in a bit of a tricky situation
because my matchmaker partner...
I literally stood up,
took his little strap book,
and... boom!
Boys!
He's white, he's white, he didn't see anything.
It's not a fight.
Fight for survival. Right now FaZe are thriving there to clean win on Dust2.
Astralis a little slow to get going is ancient where that all turns around.
Or can FaZe complete this with a clean 2-0?
FaZe 2-0 in the year of 2026?
From 0-2 down by the way in the Swiss system.
I don't know man.
There's no way.
2-0 in a series that seems not normal.
Yeah it would be weird. It would be really weird wouldn't it?
of course win versus Monty yesterday. Maybe they've turned things around and can replicate today.
I feel like it's a bit up against a bit of a bigger fish though. Speaking of bigger fish,
Astralis nearly died. Still dying. Astralis lost to Maus. That's what I'm trying to say.
Essentially in phase, they've been at the stalls all week. They've got plenty of vibes.
The vibe merchants maybe as we've seen great energy across this team twist down in the
out of his chair, getting crazy and some clutch rounds being won even in 4v5s, 4 phase, so hey,
why not? They have to find the motivation, they have to find the way to make it stick because,
well hang on a second. Oh no no no, you can keep talking, you stop talking when the cars appear
because honestly, you've got a few more seconds and you've got a bit of a warning.
Anyway, let me wrap up my point here. I just like this
Nice.
I suppose there's a different game here now, ok?
I can play very much better with this map than with this 2.
Yeah.
So we need to be aware.
But also this guy, this is what you got, so it's really fast, ok?
So we can set the plan for surveillance here.
It's gonna be a great thing, ok?
Fusey tilts fast, he says.
Ooh.
It was one of them.
I'm Fuxy, sorry.
Fuxy tilts fast.
That makes more sense.
He's been drinking the Danish wine all week, so it's fair enough.
Astralis can bring that explosive energy that Karrigan's worried about.
He's tapping back his great pistol on Dust2,
denied in this one, frozen backside, pressure on,
can't land his killing blow and they're getting closer.
So, Astralis pistol primed.
And my perfect Sunday
would be phasely Astralis.
Yeah, me too.
and we'll see who tilts first. This pistol is not going to be very
tilty. If anything, they'll say, oh well, if I just get tilted, they'll just kind of
give up. Like, I think it's more, yeah, so, like, Astralis would be the more tilt-
tilt-heavy squad, he'll tendancy.
Terrible. Broke against the next one for his troubles.
does get hunted down and it's trying to sell off to the races you ever been to a
horse race yes ones yeah you did actually I've been a one yeah how'd you
like it um I was young yeah okay yeah I don't really remember if you didn't
retain it it was no I helped like pick the horse we were gonna yeah I was
that's why I'm okay actually really yeah my grand national I was like 1415 I
I went to one of these summer like schools for English.
Yeah.
They were called obviously, but what I remember, I don't remember much about the horse race.
I do remember going to a stand to like get, I don't know, a soda or something and I was
like, can I have a Coke?
And the lady, older lady was like, please.
Oh, very sorry.
We do do do.
At that point on, I've never not said please and asking for something like definitely
They shamed me into...
Yeah, the bretive way.
Line.
Planet lights.
At least he cued as well, I'm sure.
Yes.
Absolutely.
He can't handle Q-jumpers.
One thing.
Society breaks down.
Exactly.
Anyway, guys, break it down.
Stop breakdancing.
That was huge, though.
The blind kill from Fuzzi, if he were to die there to the first player,
I think Charles might have been over-whelmed.
by the retake. So a bit of Portuna on their side. Isn't that the slogan of the SAS?
Fortune favors the bull.
Yes.
Oh, yeah.
Fortune favors the iron deficient.
There you go.
Right.
Is tuna that vine?
Good source of iron.
Fish, right?
Yep.
Omega-3.
Red meat as well.
Red meat.
Had a lot of red meat last night.
Yeah.
Built too much, actually.
That sounds...
What are you saying?
Sounds like a real euphemism.
Maybe to you Hugo.
I just had a nice steak.
Yeah.
12 out of 12 steak.
12 whole categories.
That does sound good.
That does sound bloody good.
I'm in my new mouth.
I could go for a steak right now.
Hugo could go for some red meat right about now.
Or just meat.
Hugo, what was dinner?
To-die?
Yeah.
Oh, that's storage for you. A year ago to the day. What were you eating?
Beef ball with rice. Beef ball. Beef ball.
All the beef. All the beef. That's good.
It's kind of like a steak in a bowl.
No use crying over mistakes.
That's good, because I wasn't there, but then the last night it was a phase now
in with an eco round where they have that saved MP7. Maybe that can win in this.
And if they main aggression, so they are on the wrong end of the map.
Be as open.
If Astralis lose this map, they're out of the tournament.
They are out of the tournament.
Their life is on the line.
Like a ribeye in first class.
The stakes are high.
There we go.
This might get interesting, might get bloody.
Yep.
Or at least medium rare.
Yep.
I'm carrying a full-on interesting now
Not ideal with his knife out running through the smoke back it up into yabi, so it goes from exciting to what's the opposite of the exciting
boring, thank you
Where you going brokeie?
It's a big old bombing on ancient
I do
Kaboom
How plough
Only one guy survives at the end of that for Astralis
Pretty good from a phase clan points period
Good chunk of damage
Guns are out though
Now we had
Exorcise on earlier
Who escaped to the Chateau Brionne
Now, space clan trying to make this their house
I don't know, there's another stake tie in the other game.
3D Max of course getting sent to the Shadow Realm.
Some working ties in here.
Mid control for Astralis they get given it.
FaZe instead look to pressure A main.
Risen has walked all the way through.
See, I'll come into play a little bit later,
choosing
when he wants to get activated on that flank.
For now it's allowed you extra players over here at B.
Stratus, do we still have this mid-lurk, right?
So as they move in through the ramp, bomb in tow, who's Hooxy is the first man in and
that bomb decides to get out of there, leaving Yabbi to pen for himself.
There's also this flank to worry about, so if you think the pit's open because
you've got a player in red room, you might be sorely mistaken.
No.
Frozen with the sport caught on the jump up
and that's opened up a back door for Astralis.
At least not about his player in red.
So Broke prepared to tango.
That's one on the AWP.
Broke!
Broke.
It's allowed.
And Bomb now planted.
Astralis making it happen.
Incredibly optimistic from Broke.
You think he had time to whip out the incendiary.
Would Steven peak that wide?
I mean, the Orbs scope would have done it.
Would have been enough.
He bailed them out.
Put them in this 2v2.
Can they do anything with it?
Ryu says no.
Twist responds, and now Fuzi 1v1.
He's disappeared.
Twist has kit, no smoke.
Fuzi will take that fly on the tap.
You know this guy's confident right now, even on the rifle.
So Twist moves in.
Tap, Fuzi swings, and miss shot, but still fine.
Time is low.
Fuzi can play with his food, and Twist
must run away with that orb.
Astralis 4-0 there.
No business winning that round with Froze's position.
But a bit too quick on the climb up.
Let's unpack in the row.
The ancients definitely strats his playground comfort already visible.
Twist bringing the AWP in at least.
Bokey will have someone to apply his trade.
Looks like they are going to be buying into this one.
Twist has definitely, you know, tightened up his individual performance yet a bad day.
I think he's been hitting the DMs hard.
You're definitely seeing that uptick in his individual performance.
Looks like his old self.
But yeah, rough start for FaZe Clan, looks like they're able to shake it off, not seeing too many genuine frustrations.
I kind of like the tone from Karagin coming in saying that, yeah I know we just beat them, but this game is going to be harder.
We're on our map pick, but...
They're map pick, and...
I lost my point. This game is going to be harder!
They're playing with more pace, you know, it's a different type of a game that FaZe...
was expecting
Unfortunate the first gun round the count converts with the lack of situational awareness
We've seen people throwing up molly to catch the elbow
We played a punk last night and they threw every single one
Seriously?
I just had to start double walling mid because it was annoying
Yeah, very disruptive to your standard style
That's gonna be probably not meta like every round but definitely the rounds you want to allow elbow
You can only throw it from two spawns
Yes
So that is limiting
But it's good because they're not the mid-sports, they're the right-side sports.
So it's perfect. You do that, you do red.
Yeah, okay.
Suddenly, mid is a lot easier.
But Ancient Meta shifted so much in the last year anyway that it's not like every round default,
two CTs, swing elbow, and jump up a heaven, right?
Like, look at this round phase, of course, less of weaponry, but they just contacted.
The whole way into A3 donor.
And then Hooxy clears our name. Frozen was supposed to be the valuable dead.
And Broke he can't catch your break on this fight even after your bow
But are you ready for that?
Now yabby's lurk is looking like it's gonna bear fruit as well take it all of it away
Get off the tree
Make the sacrifice. Hi, two kids hide your wives. You got five. Oh coming
Oh, Ryu!
Ryu, Ryu, Ryu!
Ryu, Ryu, Ryu!
It's on his way to a fifth round, first round.
Right.
Come on, Phaes, do something.
They gotta do something about middle.
They've been trying to keep it to the extremities up until now.
The lack of any type of mid knowledge is becoming a problem.
Well, the fact that, yeah, they've just walked the entire way through middle, all
the way into donor.
And again, the round is kind of disintegrates.
You'd think like the good counter would be having a main
and frozen did, but who could see winning that duel?
Kind of just won them the round.
Heavy and eight damage as well.
You can see that nice early HG combined with perhaps
a stair swing and you've got first blood drawn once more.
Too good, too easy.
Okay, they're so cropping, so good.
Everyone's just playing their roles.
What if the tilter is killing you?
So you become the tilter then?
Yeah, it's like the tilter becomes the tilted.
The tilty.
It's like tag.
You're it.
Yeah, tag your tilted.
That's how it works.
You lost it on.
Oh, and they are getting farmed in these rounds.
Yeah, they did a good job initially in some of these e-calls.
And even the first gun round, you know, there's only one player left alive
for the side of Astralis.
Their economy is still under pressure.
but with these last two rounds now they get a lot of breathing room so for face
climbing a half like this it becomes sort of salvage the half in any way
whatsoever just get a couple of rounds just give yourself any breathing room
going into the second half
Sorry about that, I'm gonna be sneezing.
So it's aggressive going for the fast playdown on the floor of the lane and down to Hootsie.
Ten and two on Hootsie.
Bruh.
Bruh.
Bruh.
Brrr.
Brrr.
Is that like a zombie?
Yeah, like a...
I was doing the...
It was like the Minecraft zombie.
Yeah, I heard that.
Brrr.
Creepy.
Can you do a creeper?
What about the thing?
If you could do the skeleton, I'd be really
What about the villager?
What did I do again?
That was good.
What about a ghast?
That's actually not terrible.
I have no idea what's going on.
It's a B hit looming forest trawlists.
They got a 5v4.
They also have stairs.
I think that's there, flung further afield.
Here's the RTV, old man.
Sorry.
Man.
Are they gonna back out heaven and go back? They've done it before, right? When Frozen jumped up.
I'm obviously just playing for a reaction.
It's one hell of a reaction.
Shouted Slippery over there at the top of Banana.
They don't even need to rotate it. Probably will.
But surely he could just flank this B-plate.
Yeah, I'll take it.
worry about donor but you've got the manpower to clear it out so stare with rotates cut phase
by the time they realize it's too late even save not guarantee but you can't watch bro keep walking
scoped in and die again like they have to just commit to the save straight away
you know astralis back at cluj a couple of weeks ago played phase on this map they
13-5 them and just like a fortnight ago phase back to tilted towers
70 down
I like the nod of respect, it's not funny enough for a laugh
You didn't get another point
You made a reference
Are you sure he's going to play this later?
I don't need to tell you
I've never played for four minutes
Once
And now it's um
There's a south park theme
Yo, we have the south park family
it's carmen land carmen land on the map exactly good landing spot
and see Terrence in Philip world or is that just a part of it I don't know who's
Terrence Terrence and Philip from South Park oh the Canadians okay okay oh
hey so of course
I know cool air for babes.
Someone's making the effect better and better on every time he comes in.
His very scuffed is Mike there.
Your average face in Mike.
Dude, flight is closing right now.
It's not looking good, is it? But don't you forget, everybody, it is MR-12.
right yeah so even without this round if you can make it nine three let's even
eight four let's even win all the remaining rounds just a cheeky all
nine three second half rolls along pistol anti-force conversion oh so it's
nine six right man you're getting there you're getting closer closer you're
dead on like you like it's also important for a strawler to remember
Right and say it stayed locked in for the remainder of this half try and not give phase any type of a leeway back into the map if they can
To where's the end of the half, you know
Exactly like you're feeling a little comfortable everyone's a little bit like
Yeah, we're cool. It's on the half
I could take it. Yeah, what do you think? Yeah, I'll just take it
Next thing you know a pistol is converted like Yankees had back in the mix
Like, you know, 9-3-1.5 you'll take it every time if you're a T-Side ancient, right?
But if you're 8-0 up, 9-3 is like 10-2.
10-2 is better.
And there are two other options that are even better than that.
Yeah.
Right now, FaZe, while we set up the possibility, haven't shown us anything resembling a
close round, to be honest.
It's a star contrast from Dust2. You know, it seemed like there was a much more confident phase clan.
Oh look, there's been two rounds where Fuzzi just gets a kill full blind.
You know, they are pretty impactful that could have turned the tide somewhat, especially the one in the second round.
So there's been some unfortunate moments from phase.
Of course, there's been moments where Astralis outplayed them, did well.
Like, one of the things that spooks me a little though is like, for Faze, this used to bounce.
Yeah clowns is fun, but like also the clowns. No, okay. I actually don't mind clowns. All right. They're nice guys
It's got spiders. I'm scared of spiders anything else. I'm kind of spider clown heights heights
Yeah, it's a big one
So if I was on a if I was in the sequel to snakes on a plane. Yes with spiders. Yeah spiders on a ladder
Yeah
Just climb down
Um
There we go, bro key. This is what we need things get a little bit looser, right?
You send a guy spawn play out towards a man. Just go see what they got the ramp though
So do a room at B a lot of room
How do you get nothing there?
95 on yabby frozen finishes him, but I mean a quick retake here from phase a store player late to the party
The character kicks by this order, it's not missing a beat.
Foozie, nine and two.
It's locking them in.
Send in the clowns.
Come on, Faze.
Uh-huh.
I mean, they're smoke.
Oh, he's got a line up for bomb.
Yeah.
It's over.
I see you go by and they don't, they don't have smoke.
It looks a bit high.
It looks a bit high, as I'm saying.
It's good.
He's landed it.
We're back on.
So my Twitch chat every time Harry's on the camera, it's beautiful love that Molly
love that Molly myself big fan it was it is a good one it's a good move for foodie
fozy fozy for us are just happy to see a Z why he hd why a singer
Follay!
Applau!
We're cool!
This game is...
Well not over!
Listen, we can't say we didn't warn you guys.
Alright, me and Alex.
I just didn't think we'd be like this.
Yeah, we just come to expect this.
Karian did warn them at the start that this was a possibility.
You did say, guys, we may as well just go to...
No, no, no, no.
Probably save your energy from map 3.
I said they're gonna be a lot more explosive here
Barbeque
So you can't say
Fucking master class
Master class
Moosey does not sound tilted
No, it's his bad news
This is what it takes though
And he would be off the deep end
It's all calm down for a second giving FaZe a chance.
FaZe threw double elbow smoke.
But like one of them is not in elbow.
It's the second time they're done it so there must be no reason.
Well they just spooked the Stralis out.
We're catching that.
Maybe one of these rounds will play inside of it but for now it's just frozen.
Putting it to use. Phase, looking for those three little rounds at the end of the half.
Three measly rounds. It might not feel like much, but it can be plenty.
Let's see what they can do. They've got a 5B2. Just don't mess this up.
Fuzi and Hoocsi.
Backstab in from Karagin. Doesn't net them the kill.
Just give it away one.
Where's his team?
Like...
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, they help.
It's fine.
He got the kill?
We good?
How does he get me killed by a car?
Oh, okay.
Shooting as the nade exploded.
Yeah.
You'll take it.
Okay, guys.
Alright, shake it off.
Alright.
Reset.
Go next.
Be ready for the next one.
I think it makes you look crazy.
You know, like, I'm gonna kill us all.
That's the kind of life that frozen springer at the table.
No one wants to mess with this guy.
The man's just throwing nades at his feet.
giving himself a little handicap to take the fight.
Well, Janko talked about this. He saw it coming.
If you get to 9, foot off the gas, broke, you get to kill on Hoocsy.
An instant timeout from Raga, maybe it was what you guys talked about.
Maybe they just got a little bit too relaxed over on the Australia side of things.
Leading 9-0, everything's going swimmingly.
I want to know what the little green woollen, it's home made.
It's there?
Yeah, like a little gift he's been given.
It's had it for a while.
The US ravers do this thing where they give everyone
like a little sprout, like a little green flower.
Well, he looks like a little sprout.
And wasn't he on Sprouts on?
He was.
So maybe it's a sprout.
Maybe it's a sprout.
Could be.
Hello, Marge.
He was Sprout Gays.
Running out there.
Well, he's a sturdy oak.
That's how you're okay.
Oh, okay, okay.
You idiot.
Ah, you can't spell.
Got him.
Hey!
Yep, you did see him.
Got what you asked for.
Oh, Karagin on that retake B.
Slinging on in.
Losing teammates, but he's profiting.
Gets himself a nice one.
Can't deny the plant.
spot for tip of the toes, trying to put one into the killie
he's got him, he's got two with one bullet
Cape occupied as well, foes he always a dead man
the clock, the red little rounds, they're coming in
phase, they're two thirds of the way there
two three rounds, yeah maths, flawless maths
mathematics, does he think your leg is broken
like it broke in that's why we pulled the lock out and let's see
interesting that he didn't buy like a pistol in the previous round I mean he
still has 10k coming into this one point it's good point hello keregan
miss you buddy well we see him in the arena what we see him in person
Or will Astralis break that dream down today in a reverse sweep?
Up 3 is Inferno, which to me means nothing, right?
We just had a great decider on Inferno.
Between the Mongols and 3D Max, of course.
Of course.
Harry knew that.
I knew that.
I was ready to come in and talk to you if you needed it.
I was there.
I'd say so.
Harry, we never got to this man.
You sad about the coaching change at 3DMAX, you know, he's not there anymore.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I am sad about it.
You know how, I said his name wrong.
You know how.
You know how.
That's his cousin.
Yeah.
Oh, we have fun, eh?
It's round 12, final of the half phase.
All they were looking for was three.
Measel rounds. They're on the verge of getting it not measles rounds
Well, I mean if trust win this one there MMR is gonna go up
Hey, we need to dumb the jokes
Swiss is bold right now for doing this, he's got no support.
He's watching Heaven, Elbow, Heaven, Elbow.
Who's he?
Just trying to test in the waters on a main, okay?
Seen in the, there was a forward defensive position, wards them away.
And now we just all walk back to be phaser winning this map.
Such an audacious call.
Just, I feel it right now.
He's got ancient themed gloves. He's at home here and
He's gonna be re smoking red
Oh, so what so stairs gonna try and like force them back a bit
Send the area behind
It's a hard fight now especially with the multi elevations
He's still well to be alive and distract
Attention comes back in for the double dip gets twists
Awkward now for Brokey. Responsibility on B, bomb down on the ramp.
Ohhhh!
He's in trouble.
He gets one here though.
Needs two, nails it.
Molly actually denies the trade after the game. That's an Astralis.
Molly, it's not the best!
Stand to command, Yabbi dead!
Oh!
The spam missing by millimetres.
An Astralis, they had all the cards in this round,
but it still might get out of the way.
Oh, a pass, Boca! Follow up onto the site now, it's Frozen left in the 1v1.
He's behind you.
Stare pieced this together, because Frozen is arriving very, very quickly on this flank. No!
There's the third for FaZe Clan. It's all they could muster at the end of this half. Will that be enough to make it scary?
We say that I'm a 12. Close is up quick. Will Astralis live to regret giving FaZe 3?
Oh
We are the champion- VIDEE
We are the champion- VIDEE
We are the champion- Kill champion
We are the Changyong Crew number one.
Welcome back to Face Clan vs Astralis.
That was Tom Hacks' son's favorite song in the break during the halftime.
And we did get the three rounds we wanted for Face Clan to give them a buffer.
something potentially multi-compact in the second half but it really feels dependent on a good start.
I know I tainted fucking a Monalisa, a Monalisa's quick control around this guy there.
Monalisa! I barely know her.
three round half pistol
J-Raz is styling us now smooth with it
How does he do it?
How many do it sideways?
Oh that was a little too easy wasn't it?
Just taps the head off a car and walking on up
here's all the boots bouncing towards him
It's far from stair to fall back slightly and they're going to have to try and clear
them out and that leads to another tab.
This is all too easy.
A clinical shutdown from Astralis.
Twist down is a clean pistol round.
So what happens when you've got the fozy or fozy in this form, you know, 16 and five
right now?
Formsy.
Formsy.
This one will be cool in it.
It's forced by a bus phase.
They echo.
They are.
they've given up they they they're not those guys on map 3 which we all know
what it is you know so it's not been a good map phase all right it's not been a
play map for strollers you should have seen me hold the ship bro what's our mind
get this get the fuck out of my server yeah love that so they're catching a
vibe to I mean understandably the pressure is high we discussed it the
stakes they're high force by up let's see what they can do with it they're
We're gonna run back and A-Play this time 5-3 main. Riu, here's this. Seize the shadows.
Shadow people sent to the Chateau realm. Riu, double kill. Leaves Astralis in a great place.
Oh, grab it.
What can you do with a bro? Backstab.
So quick. Will they get out of his server?
Does he just go for the burst immediately? Yes, he does.
Another burst, another burst at all. Full spray into their backsides.
Hey a second that's trolling. That's just trolling through the smoke food. He's there. They cause chaos. They survive
Please get out frozen on the bomb and be
No stop
I mean, what do you do here though? How do you get some pillar? No, I know quick behind? Oh, he's going around the world again
double round the world
double
rainbow
all the way
Would he go red and kill them?
Would he go A and plant?
Like, do you like this?
What are they?
What are they?
What do they think he's doing?
Great question.
He's waiting for the fire.
I think now the penny's dropping, but they don't want to pull their knives out of
right away.
He gets a plant outmaneuvered.
Oh, bro.
Frozen is taking them on a world tour.
Back to A.
Now he walks Temple on Flanks.
Beautiful move.
Oh, no.
And he's grabbed that M4.
Oh, I'll get behind them.
You just got to hope they don't stick, but they got smoke.
They got kit, they got man advantage.
It smells doughnut and bomb.
Oh, weird one.
That bomb's not for CT, this is now...
Wait, no kit, no kit. Yeah, whoops, he has it.
Five, four, three, two...
Oh! Get some off!
Gotta find that kit, gotta find that kit!
Come on, buddy! I lost it!
On the deep view...
Oh, here he comes!
He's got it!
Ah, it's got it!
Ground secured!
Nice try.
Fenty, really nice try.
Really nice try.
But no!
a bit of a firestar that could have got phase kind of a woken and it's got him
smiling at least you know get to get the the vibes reset a little oh just in time
on that denial as well but important trade and then fuzzy not panicking
scoops of the kid just in time final time out squeaky bum time
He knows, out of NT, a couple of glills, got the AK on twists, but let's be real here.
No reason to believe in FaZe.
Opportunity may be, but Astralis just started too strong in this map.
Left the minimal room to recover.
Fuzi's locked in, I mean 18 and 5.
Hoaxy, having a great game as well.
Stare, reliable, shots in the pistol.
That's a cute little reveal.
Sounds like a little sprout.
Stare's Brussels Sprouts.
Vrush, eh, no stop.
Another fast air, okay.
I think they have their way in.
That's kind of mad, isn't it? He's fucking blind for all of that.
Still nails it, of course, but you've got a doner this time. That's nice, right?
They might have been able to get into any type of a post-plant.
The spam connects again. Another one of these backstabs to deal with.
Oh, Smurfs and the Flank is weird, but it will let that player get close, at least.
Oh, and it's some terrible Smurfs.
They've actually locked up pretty well.
Hoopsie closes in the distance and does convert to kill 2v4.
for the default player, Hoopsy doing it on his own and kick phase out of this map. It's going
to Inferno. We've got one more round for Astralis to make that a reality.
Yeah, I mean, when you are just pedaled to the metal on A, Astralis seemed to have very
good protocols for that. I mean, Stare, very good understanding of the parting and
the timing. We'll see this again. Look at that. Just a maybe a frame of character
and Nuzz's vision still nails it. Another one through the smoke just breaking holes
through it, gets enough vision for more lethality, jobs are good and yeah, he has a plant too.
I was worried you know stairs the only player I've seen with such a you know good amount of
greenery in his room, good for oxygen, circulation, breathing, breathing.
You could even call stairs room the breathing room.
Yeah, the accuracy in breathing room is very good.
Very important.
Jacob dead to the spam.
It's nice to have a whole room dedicated to it though.
That's a phase never really got going here on ancient.
We were wondering if maybe the three rounds would be enough for them to do something when
the moment they didn't get that pistol, they'd been goaded into these four spies, really
just out of desperation.
Yeah, now they're practically exiled and they're inferno.
Yeah, it's a scoop for FaZe as they are done.
Astralis dominate them on Ancient and this one becomes a three-mapper elimination on
the line at the end of this series and the score will be settled on Inferno.
Short, I have one. Hold short.
Hold short after. I'm blind.
I'll take short.
I'm blind now.
One more short.
One more short.
The last one is up.
I have Molly.
I smoke me.
I'll drop you Molly, I'll spam with the...
I'll spam with the...
No, it's...
I'm on site.
I'm on site.
I'm gonna spawn.
Nice, then I spawned.
I spawned him bro.
Fucking master class.
What a round.
Let's make a careful B.
I'm gonna make a B.
I'm gonna go back to B.
I'm gonna flash B.
I have two more.
Flash B, two more.
Left side.
Boom.
I'm faking K.
They've both been in it.
Left side, left side.
Left side, left side.
I'll kill it.
I'll kill it.
He's got a very nice.
Left side.
He heard me I think.
Nice.
Nice kills guys.
Nice cons of this.
Fucking important.
Eira, Eira, Eira!
Let's go, let's go!
I'm gunplanting.
It's full by, it's full by, it's full by.
We have two molly's on plant.
I'm on the corner.
For those ones.
One is safe.
They have one on fire.
Gunflow's behind boys.
Can you get ready to play?
Wait.
Gunplant.
I'll just do a chaos flash.
Guys do chaos, do a lot of chaos.
Two big molly's on speed.
Low speed, low speed.
Ready?
Three, two, one.
on. Just as we all expected three maps required between Astralis and face to see who will
be eliminated from ESL pro league in its 23rd season. Is it fair to say that was a hooksy
Masterclass Hugo. Masterclass. Yeah, absolutely Masterclass.
He did call it that. What was A-class?
And Fuzi popped off as well. Yeah, let's go for the Fuzi.
Nothing not to like for astronomers.
Everything to hate for phase, I guess, on the other hand.
I think doing never hates phase. No, impossible to hate.
But it's easy to be disappointed in them at the moment.
They get about, there's still a man. I'm not worried.
There's still a man. No, I'm not angry, I'm just disappointed.
Um, I definitely heard some connect four pieces moving around.
J-Raz still undefeated, as always.
No, it was Rush versus Jason.
Oh, yeah.
Everybody's disappeared.
I really did want to...
Jason is here.
I lost.
You lost?
Oh, my God!
Jason is the reigning champ.
He's Jason.
You know, there's a lot of plays that were happening.
He was placing his little spheres or whatever I placed mine.
And, you know, sometimes, you know, you go in there thinking you're just going to play your own game, but sometimes it just gets away.
Were you playing Jason's game by the end of that way?
Yeah, I think he kind of twisted around with me and I just fell into his trap.
You're on the fence, you're just trying to walk in there.
Yeah, I was like, block in, block in, and he just used five steps there.
You can't win if you're not connecting for all you're doing is stopping them.
Yeah, it's a bit of a shame.
But you know, it's the way it goes, you know, we're gonna come back, we're gonna review.
I took a picture of the board, you know, and we're gonna go through the steps tonight
and we'll see if we can come back from this.
Awesome, yeah.
Okay, well, I mean, thank you for your time and, you know, congratulations.
Good luck on the next day.
Thanks.
The expanded version.
Connect six, like...
It's gonna be fun.
Can I just give a B stream update warning?
Aluga! Aluga!
Care about the B stream? You should have been watching it.
Legacy one, Alex.
Legacy one.
Do my hours gone through?
Do my hours officially in playoffs?
Let's go!
I feel fantastic about that.
He's also got a 1.23 rating.
The man is a gamer.
People were down in me.
Gonna be good.
I'll put two now, number two.
gonna be good CR in person.
Yes it is.
I miss him.
Yeah and I miss Nissen.
You're Nissen?
Anyway, uh, not even what are you buying for them to see if they can earn it.
2-0!
Yeah, crazy.
What in goodness gracious is going on here?
It was pretty nuts.
It was pretty nuts.
Did you know who has the lowest elo of all the players in attendance to EPL?
Is it?
Lowest elo.
Lowest elo.
It'll be someone that doesn't play, right?
They just hasn't played in forever.
like name value it's really unexpected they're playing later today he's playing
G2 playing Hunter Hunter it's not like he's too busy oh it's Zantara's it's
Zantara's I have more elo you have more elo Alex you nearly have more elo how
bad is it 2.4 okay yeah it's so weird because he used to just be the
Yeah, 2.4k. That's crazy.
Why'd he stop playing?
So Taro stopped peeking?
He did.
That sounds fake.
He's crazy.
He's sure.
Yep, positive.
Yeah, he did the research.
Okay.
Aja has slightly more evil.
As expected.
Aja needs to heal up in a low 2k game and get Zantara's hit.
What the fuck are you doing?
What are you doing?
You've got him from work, a little bit tired.
That's actually insane.
saying. This isn't tarot. That would just end it all. Seriously? We do have a piece
of mail in the DHL Mailbag. That's the DHL Mailbag at efg.gg. I hear yeah, it is just
the one piece. So this best be a good one. You have to put your heart and soul in it.
One thing I'll say about DHL, they've always got good pieces. Let's have a look at it.
Let's get it up there. Oh yeah, season two. Season two available now. Oh wait, available
today. Well season two episode one. Oh sorry episode two will be coming very soon.
What's up, Max?
Greetings, lovely people, from the fun bunch
and the funnabunch, whoever they are.
Love the ESS skits and would like to know more
about the process behind producing one.
Here's the question.
How much input do the involved players and coaches
have about the jokes slash references?
What was your favorite skit to be involved in?
What will we see another Lord of the Rings skit
in the future?
That's what I'm going to tell you.
Are you the casters involved in the writing of the skit?
And the most important question,
where can I find the music used in the heroic
or bootcamp skit, I can't remember the music there.
Thank you, much love from Jeremy.
We will be able to find that for you.
We could work that out.
100%.
I feel it was just a whole bunch of fun.
OK, so I'll take out one of them.
How much input do the involved players have?
I think they can always say, I'm
comfortable doing this or not, like they read the script
and then they give a thumbs up.
And if they get the thumbs up, they do it.
Sometimes as well, they'll do little ad libs and stuff.
Some teams are really good at that.
Furia being one of them, like Fallen and Co.
Love to change a line here and there.
like something that's either a bit more natural or like what they think is funny.
So, you know, it's like case by case basis. Usually they do what's written on the paper,
but if they don't feel comfortable or they have something funnier, they can change it.
Yeah. And I think the players are pretty good at laughing themselves.
And they are. Well, obviously, yeah, we've made so many skits about them. Like,
Niko Muske's or Steve's, right? He's like another one making fun of me. I'll do it.
like is the best actor of all the players I think too. I think it's really, I think we're really lucky in CS as well
because a lot of the time in other esports, the players don't see the value in taking ownership of a joke, you know?
But I think in Counter Strike, there's been a light bulb moment where they're like, wait, okay, if we crack the jokes at our own expense,
their words have less power now. I'd say Blade's also incredible, by the way. Underrated.
Yeah, Blade's amazing.
when you did with Blade and the Mongols is hilarious. He was great. It's not the quarterfinals.
Imagine it took that right in a stride as well. Alexi B, MA also pretty good.
We shout out the girls. Yeah. Shout out the girls. FGW. FGW.
Shout out the girls.
Ground at Walsh, Mr. Content, AESL. He's responsible for a lot of the skits,
a lot of the goods. Actually just all media, all content. And he's refined his craft over
time right recently just been a factory just pumping man that's solid some skits
are talent written a lot of skits are fgw written and even the talent ones like
Harry does a lot they go through Frank him and they'll mend the minds together
maybe you could talk more about that process if you want to I rate a few like
the Lord of the Rings one when to put it back I was a question so you were
Okay, there was an idea for a third one like it's still hold up
I think it still holds up and it's good now because like James back and he was cast as Gandalf in the original one
So saying cologne that there was there was an idea for a third like I have the bones of a third one
Oh, I'd love to see it and like now all the pieces are here to do it
So yeah, that could be a third one. It was going to take like a weird spin
That was kind of the idea like it was gonna be Lord of the Rings, but they're not I'm not gonna say any more
You make it happen. Yeah, I've written some phrase written some you've done a bunch of me not skits. No
What was it the the Apple TV show? Oh
Yeah, well Frank had me a lot with that Frank Frank is a good guy. Yeah
It's a good game.
Not to be confused with the scapegoat, which is usually Harry Russell.
And also, we'll help with directing them and stuff.
You did audio madness one, right?
What's it called?
Genoval.
Yeah, I directed the number one.
I also directed the Lord of the Rings ones.
That's it the Aurora one that iconic Aurora one have the chat we got time for me to talk about Scientology a little bit
Yeah
When I was 11, they said that I can be one of the best players in the world.
I chose to go full CS, just the sacrifice that I wanted to make to become the best.
I think grinding your face really helps you when it comes to keeping your energy up.
The best advice is that you need to love the game.
In the end, I'm going to be a good player.
I swear, loyalty and service to Gitto.
I do not think we should so lightly abandon our defenses, defenses that others have long
What would you have me do?
I will not yield the opening best of three on foot.
Our pride must be retaken.
My lord, the bracket is overrun.
Much must be risked in war.
Is there a captain here who has a stress to face spirit?
You wish now that our places had been exchanged, that I was taken by Falcons and Nekomir was
not?
Yes, I wish that.
Once you are robbed of Nekomir, I will do what I can in his stead.
I should return.
Think better of me.
That will depend on the scoreline of your return.
Can you sing, Master Mongol?
Well, yes, in my own language.
But we have no songs for gay long halls and old times.
And why should your song be unfit for my halls?
Oh
Thing is on
I'm not sure what's going on.
Well then, we've got a third deciding map.
It is an elimination series between FaZe Clan and Astralis.
It was rather dominant from both sides
on their respective map picks,
and so now we must separate them
in the third map decider, Inferno.
It's a banger.
Slapping that bet.
Whoa, keep going.
You're stalling me.
What?
Yanko, you're doing great.
You're doing great.
That's so bad.
That's so bad.
Come on, Yanko.
I'll send it!
What have they done to you?
I take this, I'm not going to tell.
I'm just becoming big trouble.
Can you give me a Bazinga at least?
A ZINGA!
We have fun.
Okay, I think we have that technology.
No, we should be doing that a lot more.
Oh, backstab for Fuzi!
Oh great intro we did but there's the side of the map.
I think so.
So many buddies.
Let's get the party started.
That's so freaky.
You sound like a whole different dude.
I just sound like myself.
So weird.
How do you do that?
I just make my throat all bubbly.
You like slip in different mannerisms and everything.
I can't do it.
Hello!
1-0 to Astralis in 4 minutes!
Wow, they won!
No, I meant like...
Now he did his normal voice and the quiz it is.
No, that is my normal voice. I'm putting this one.
Yeah.
The Long Kong.
Tallest criminal. Name's a man.
Smooth criminal.
What are you? Are you okay?
No.
No one's really okay. So, Astralis are okay. They got the pistol and they're not going to lose against an eco.
Everything's fine.
Raior are you?
Sorry. Eric.
Yeah.
You're like in the Schengen day situation, right?
Yeah.
So you have to leave like tomorrow after the game.
Yeah.
We're doing the first game.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Seeing how this day has went, are you reconsidering your decision?
About what?
Are you still going to make the flight?
Yes.
it should be so like safest houses situation
what time's the flight?
8.30pm
oh you're fine
we're doing one game
it's fine
there is
zero percent chance
we're still going
it's fine we can handle this
I'm attempting to take it I'll do it
we can just leave
you can leave
we'll pick up the
the slack
as it were
oh we can see if slack's still around
we'll have him standing
we'll have him in
yeah
oh well hi guys
it's not Mickey Mouse
Mickey Mouse!
I'm far off!
Oh ho!
Oh ho!
It's time for a mafia hole!
It's time for that big face game!
You sound like that creepy guy in Family Go.
Hubert, where is he?
It was so funny when he was talking trash, you know they were trying to do a bit or
so.
It was a party wasn't it?
It was games.
Uh, something like that.
Maybe I want an EPL.
I remember you were wrecking him.
It's all.
Probably.
It's not just low hanging fruit really.
So a lot of hate dogs kind of ride themselves.
Even for me.
Well, on for...
We discussed this though, Frank does a lot of the joke riding around here as well.
But they don't ride themselves?
That's what we give Frank a call.
Talk to Frank?
Talk to Frank?
What was that?
It was an anti-drug thing.
Yeah, absolutely.
Ohhhhhhh!
Woo!
Sure!
Have lanes on the wall from the...
Well, it's the ricochet through the chest of that first man in.
See what you're doing there.
Yep.
And now scaling for Carrigan over the top of this.
Hmm.
Oh, feeling a little sour there.
Lime scaling over the top.
Get the lemons out.
clean it up
was the ask frank thing the same campaign like from uh... choose life
pretty the same vibe i think it would have been the same vibe
but that would have been like
choose life that's the main spot
choose him there
choose saving you a two versus three
such a great roll
from the second one
still haven't seen that again i've got a lot of things to watch man
alright let's try and win the first gunny
quite, uh,
phase was in the pistol in the first gun round. That's also
classic these days. Yeah.
Where Harry?
No.
So I agree.
It's three nil.
And you were guaranteed a slow stop.
You guys ever get blue nostrils? You know, like when you
Yeah, sneeze, and then it doesn't come. We just like
had the time. But yeah, I just coined it now. But I
Oh, that was weird. I was convinced I had a sneeze coming. It never arrived.
Holding my tongue.
Holding your tongue.
Jokes, man.
There was a couple there.
Oh, it's you.
You're going to be biting your tongue.
He's holding it.
Holding between my tongue.
Yeah, you're holding it between your teeth.
No, I just stick my tongue on my mouth and I grab it.
He's holding it.
Welcome that phase down.
Elimination game here at Crowley.
Come on lads, come on, I'm standing up.
I'm standing up. Let's go.
Pistols Alex, when did Evertwist
did something with a Deagle on inferno?
I don't know. Yeah, you're right.
It's not a single time I can recollect.
Set up too quick.
I'm setting back.
Fusy now.
Fusy now.
Everybody's calling Dizzy.
Pretty good.
Similar.
Bit of a rascal.
Four kills in that round.
Four rounds for Astralis and Faiz
coming in with their second buy.
so quickly next thing you know he will be wearing your Rolex as money is
ballooning for Astralis a wily coyote
holy fuck I am I am fk your 4045
He is 0-0.
Oh, there it is.
Oh!
That might be the call from...
Hey, hey!
How about we test this guy on B?
What's he up to?
Garage a banana!
Oh, we've got the space.
Molly doesn't keep him at bay.
Second Molly a little better.
Hello?
Reasonarily a lot of people killed me, it's another one!
Two-faceted kills.
Beautiful by the Observing Team, thank you very much.
We need more overviews like that.
Yeah, yeah.
Most of the game should be shown like that, honestly.
But the world's not ready for that fact.
Stalled out of the game back in 2019.
Do you remember that?
No, CGS did it first.
Yeah, the third person.
A lot of things first.
So what kind of cam would we need now?
I still want some POVs.
I want some POVs and I need to want to see the kills.
This one's alright man, there's like mostly just fights to remain.
Like post plants, an entry into the site.
Welcome to the CGS.
Oh, they get in 2v4 brewing here as the plant goes down at four phase.
phase. Okay, can you try and do this 2v2 with cams jay? And is that possible? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay.
Bomb down. It's actually a nice round. Both coming in from the library side.
Spotted on the default boxes. Time on their side, but closing that gap patience as well, but it has connected into the head of Broke.
It's going to swing. Double swing on the short side. Only one there. Not good. 1v2, low HP, Karagin. Have you got it in yet?
How are they going?
Kit?
Smoke the bomb, get on it!
You need to cover.
There it is.
Cover's there.
Cargony through there.
Ah, perfect.
Nice cam.
Nice round.
Looxy, not after anymore.
3 and 0.
I think that was great.
Granted, once it takes a while and you're just on the same cam, it kind of gets dull
a little bit.
Maybe some more movement or something?
But you got to see a lot though.
I'll take some notes here.
You need to look at 360.
Oh, it wasn't criticism at you, I'm just saying.
Like if that's where the way to watch all the time it's...
What if you had two observers like that cutting...
When we have two fees?
Yeah.
Two J-Razes.
Whoa.
Too far.
I think a lot of it is honestly...
What is it?
The main point is like when there's a lot of utility involved.
So it doesn't have to be always an execute.
It's like what we did with the long take, it can be all these banana takes.
Like there's just so much utility involved where...
I mean I tried a bunch to keep track.
It's one of the things where FJ, it's in hindsight, it's like yeah that was obvious I should have done that right but...
I say just go for it.
When you're so proud of the T2s, it's a very place to be.
Because I don't care about people learning lineups, watching.
You can't even do that if you don't play them. It's the Red, it's all these different stuff across here.
Download the demo or watch a YouTube video if you want to learn lineups.
Here it's about people understanding what has transpired.
That's a good count.
banana taken they leave stair up on the half wall and rotate out it's not gonna
block you to have some left back who actually picks it up passes it back to
stair and phase don't know but they've got to take back banana before they do
anything
trade out frozen beats it stair plays safe in CT with a new Molotov
Phase, take middle.
Ock is quite early at the air, we'll say.
That stairs last smoke.
True, if it is.
It was unforced and Phase, hearing that, might want to go back to this B hit.
So good rotation from Fuzi 8 and 0 on the foos
They only five kills from phase in five rounds. He's all been here
No flashes fake down right now foosie gets that kill who's he holding flashes, but it's backed away for phase
It's a good call. You have to try and break this Yabi and Ryoset up
spot cell on the pier side then I'm gonna clear this balcony
there's an opportunity for Yabi drops in number two
lovely Alper is all enough time for the rotation in
Hoogsy got a frag
have to stay over us
Brokey's lost the round
they were right behind them
nothing to do double killed
there's a third right there but Starr doesn't give it over
trap lads
great Alper from Yabi there you'd expect maybe one on the high end
and these managed to find two.
I was a little bit surprised that Ryu is shoulder peeking there
because with the low time, just not letting them know where you're playing from
is pretty powerful and they have to run with the time
to get the information anyway.
But still, Yabi was able to salvage the situation with his double kill.
We'll see there just in time.
I like what Yabi's doing right top.
How can he get a kill dropping off?
Oh, that's a lot of anti-pamper fire for you, Will.
Oh, my god, he's so close to going down.
A single bullet would kill him.
Who's bogged down?
Twist.
Simple.
Brookie just hanging out in spawn.
Round's almost over for him.
Looking a whole lot more like ancient than it is does too, right, fellas?
Give it time, you know.
Is it spread?
It still stays on the line.
This is ballsy from Fusy.
Gets it, dips away, gets away.
And then a blocks one takes his place.
This is brilliant.
job done luck phase this is not your round more work oh right oh
nope
you're okay you never paid any input oh no apparently not oh okay little deagle
Here it is. Here it is. The fire.
This is where he's trying to get on the board and unlikely round low he can't coming into it.
And the stairs sends him back in.
One man, a back of the site, no problems.
Styling on him.
That can't be that easy. I mean, he made it look easy, so he wasn't.
That's why he has a spot on almost every map in Counter Street.
The stairs spot?
Come on, Janko. Your jokes are like onions, man. They got layers.
Yeah, Janko has been on fire today. It's a good day. He knows we got Katana after this.
Yeah, exactly.
We're going to be faring on the seas.
Well, tech pause. Ah, the classic, Alex.
Right at the end of the day.
No, no, no. It's all good.
Like, as long as, listen, here's the thing. As long as the player's cam is still on,
you know it's fine. It's nothing major, right? You can see there's twists.
He's not on the server, but he's on the camera.
Tapping in.
I like the music.
He's just checking his own PC because he's 0 and 8
and something must be wrong with the equipment.
Good to take a minute, reset.
Actually, that's not fair, 0 and 7, 0.
Because, you know, the 8 is from this disconnect.
8 is silent.
Yeah.
But he's not the only face player with that scoreline.
Jacob also 0 and 7.
Rough star for the Mollinferno.
What's the ending of that pro league?
Yeah, the elimination boys.
It would be going out with a whimper.
Would he be, you're getting in the elevator with FaZe Clan after this loss.
Hey guys, you have a good day?
Have a good day?
Yeah.
Oh, so great.
So, Rookie...
You flying him tonight?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Um, for example?
Yeah.
So what's next for you?
Roller down.
Oh, see you, well, obviously you're there.
Yeah, okay, well, uh, I gotta go.
Yep. Yeah.
Good night. Thank you, Tante. Sorry, bye.
See you, man.
Good job, gang. We made it through the elevator encounter.
Well, nothing worse.
Nothing worse.
The worst is where you just go like,
you'll see something like,
hey man, hours today, but like, they lost and obviously it was on like a B stream, so you didn't know.
You say, hey man, you good?
Obviously, no, anyway like...
I've done that before, there was a B stream game of Pro League where we had five...
the five-week pro league where we had like, Triple World lay in there.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I was like, oh, who played tomorrow? He goes, we got eliminated.
Oh, sorry man.
I didn't watch that game, honestly.
I'm recovering from that.
I just go in the North.
The North is safe.
That's it, that's it.
Hey man, how's Banana going for you?
Oh.
Three health again?
Fair enough.
frozen rejects violence throws the gun away
picks up another gun small gun
so it's less violent damage done
good flashbang that's gonna bring carrying it into the fall easy to carry the gun
I do like it
but to phase oh it's fine easy look at the precision
lovely lovely control of the spray
He's gonna try and make the play, there's another one on the side, oh he's done very well.
He's working now.
Yeah, that little tech break, he's fixed it all up.
Running smooth.
Not a one USB tap through the smoker on the fade maybe.
That's a technical term.
Takes down twist and an off-trained and a lead.
Jacob hitting headshots.
It's not practice anymore, he has to come up clutch, get face started here.
map I'm 15 seconds he's gonna go for an open plan there's gonna get swung on and
down to Ryu that's the end of that another one for Astralis rush J I have a
question when twist is connected his school was on a like Yankee said and
they reconnected and went back to 0 and 7 is that manual you guys doing that is
that an update I should be a round restart that was too easy for
for a strong start to the initial entry from Kerrigan
they're just gaming right now
and without even being glad he is
good job on me
hey, they want a game?
they just want a game?
they beat Liquid
welcome Liquid JL
phase V Liquid who wins?
us, watching
yeah
do we?
Oh, well they know what's up.
Yabbi's in the past, yabbi there.
Three players.
Two in, foosie, combat, all dead.
There's the help from Ryu, backstab up through short, down to Ryu to try and reel it in.
But the tech nines come out trumps and now it's a 2v1, Hoocsi.
You've gotten away with being AFK back in the spawn, big chilling.
But now has to, oh he's dead.
No, wait.
No damage.
behind something, Pixie's been given a shot here, a second chance at life, second chance
at the clutch, only for Jacob to rip it away. Low by round win for FaZe Clan.
I don't even want to entertain the, what we do on Ancient, you know, the, ah, but you
get a couple around again.
It is a 12.
And the pistol round, like at this point FaZe need to show it, Astralis have played
a great game here past us to smashing through ancient smashing through inferno phase do get around
listen Hugo if you learn anything recently is that the wall can always go up right CT side
inferno that defense can be super solid so this is not like oh they will have to come back on
T side ancient this is the CT side on face you can get pumped up twists with the right
rotation, the right pulse, moderating everyone, road kick, always good for a clutch out and
over, carry gun, in banana, being a thorn, in the side of a solace, it's doable, you
have to believe, if you don't believe that, what are we doing here?
I hope they believe, I'm not sure I'm there yet, I might start to believe it, I think
you got an opening kill here in round 10 would you say that you won't stop
believing one and phase back up into the apartments here
quick but here's that's good reaction it's still gonna be a kill for character
we're brokeie finding a pickup mid that bomb gets dropped by yabby yabby on the
fire right now two versus three bomb secured for frozen lot more to do he
gets passed with the flashbang bomb planted give it a go or carrying in the
new graveyard yeah he doesn't like that few moments of standing there he knows
it's not for him oh frozen it clears the path forward out towards short that's
smoke i'm not sure i like it
it's not good for astralis
karkin's using it
frozen nearby ready to swing if needed
perfect
and now it's just hooxy
sandwiched between phase cloud
and he decided that was his best route forward
4v5 indeed
one of the options
it's a phase
RASPING for the last couple of rounds.
Strollos, Janko, two timeouts.
8-2, second one.
Yeah, I think it's okay. The first one was after Phase 1, their first round.
So again, maybe it's a little bit of the attitude,
getting caught out against the half-bite at the pace.
Here they were in the 3v2, so I don't know if it's, you know,
Raga being unhappy with how Yabi maybe played too fast this side.
She was so low
And this is different because it's still two rounds right and if you win this one
Our face will have a bite some sorts and also for the side of a trial is this is their last question. They lose this round
It's 8-4
Pistol conversion 8-7 one round away. Here you go. You better believe it. Okay. You convinced me the maths checks out
Harry? Yeah. Do you believe it? I am a perma phase believer.
You can never write him off. Ever since I quit as the coach, you're faith in the team started.
I was about to start, yeah.
You have the mentality for a comeback here.
You may be going there, but the stoicism you brought is still there.
trying to get through the rough eight rounds at the start and now hoping for four on the
half. That's recoverable. I believe it was Marcus Aurelius who once said it's not about
how you start, but how you finish. There you go. 106 BC. Of course. EXHEC. Two home.
Good nades.
Yeah, their nades are just being-
This could be great.
This could be a banger as well from who's he's got it primed.
Boom!
Oh, not quite.
Play through.
Right in the stair.
Into the stack.
This should be a shutdown.
Forestralis, they get through flawlessly.
And yeah, the Utile Banana side is felt super punishing.
Not just the Nade kill, but even the Molly to like divide the push, throw all the timing off.
That's a nice name.
Yeah, we should check the utility damage actually, does anyone got the keyboard nearby?
Oh, it's this fucking map, bro.
Oh, that's not a good sign, I agree.
That's not a good sign.
It's getting nice.
Whoa, there were 500 UD, Hoaxi were 218, Rio were 90.
There's another barrage onto Karagin and Frozen.
You try and play Panarda early, do it at your own risk, because Astralis,
They got the HE line-ups and they be working.
I have to slow it down because of this map.
This map, this is very inferno-esque.
You're right, it's not a good sign when he starts to complain about the map in the middle of a Duel of Die series.
But what more a phase got here can they squeeze out a final round?
Oh, oh, what?
In the week, though.
You can do that again if you try.
Twist?
That is insane!
Yeah, indeed.
It's still mostly covers mid-plane.
It's added like a weird angle that could be easily exploited.
And you also have to find out if the smoke landed.
That's so unlucky.
Oh, the bayonet switch.
Yabi is just ferocious.
The abster. This is the Yabi we were promised.
Yes.
Cooksy just knows how to unlock him, man.
Yab-Zera.
Yabiko.
Yabiko.
Sounds like a beige in Serbia.
Sushi.
Yeah.
He's good. He's perfect.
Swap? Can't make it a double.
Oh, you did it!
It won't matter.
Wrap it up.
get through with three much like on ancient where we pinned all our hopes on a handful of rounds
that's all they've got they need this pistol in the second half for us their time at EPL is over
I've been searching and searching for quite a long time
I've been looking all over without a sign
Through highs and lows that I've never been before
I've found the missing part that I've been looking for
Yeah, I've been looking for
Yeah, I've been looking for
Yeah, I've been looking for
But I've been looking for
What I've been looking for
I've been searching all over
Through night and day
I've been looking all over, in every way
I've bought some diving boats, from north to north
And I've found the missing dudes, that I've been searching for
Yeah, I've been looking for, what I've been looking for
I've been all over from east to west, from coast to coast,
the final chance a pro league
for one of these two teams and
well, it's not going well. The
phase is it. Yeah, T side could
be a whole lot better for
fades. Clan definitely feels a
little bit more. You can see
such a dejected looking Yabi, and
I suppose I might be because
you put against such a good
shift 15 frags from him. Top
of the tables. He's been
kind of helped out by foesie
and stare with impactful rounds
themselves. But yeah, I think
there's a little bit of a
slip up towards the end is
towards the end, it's been given face just a little bit of something to hold on to.
This is the round man, this is the one that really decides it. The comeback's happening,
you win the pistol phase client, if not, then this is so quickly going to be the end of their
run at EPL. It's not a bad way to start. Frozen finds the 5v4 and they're trying to run this
bait and switch to the top banana but right now it's just frozen force forward by the util
into the stack. A brawl for banana and frozen wants his 5 today, nailed 3.
Now it's just Fuzi.
What's that? It's still in the site, into the oranges.
Fuzi against the two players that the community think should be removed from FaZe Clan
in their effort to find some of their old glory and now it's just the one.
The newest addition, Jacob, the young hope of Poland, the savior of FaZe Clan
on this map potentially.
And you got it Harry, you got what you asked for.
Yes phase pistol comes through come back still in slash on the cards for phase
One of them is appropriate both of them actually work
But either way frozen has given him the first step
The fact that he was supposed to be like the bait and ended up getting three kills is very impressive
Adorable as well as that round could have got a lot more awkward for jacob if he did miss that first bullet crossing
Oh
Sorry, we talked to have a carry. Oh, that's fine. He heard the mollo bounce. Oh, then we cut him off because
Because it was too good. It was funny. He was just hiding sandwich
He gets molly then dies and uproads and killed three people and he survives
Just don't lose to pistols and economical. That's all you have to do. This would be an impressive round to lose to hmm. Yeah, almost
It's two deagles. That's it
Just two desert eagle. If one of them were on
I think they had a chance but it's Fuzium Rio though who are really really good in 2vx's
for Astralis.
They're the two with the Deeks.
What is Broke doing?
Just jiggling man.
Why is he jiggling?
Like not for a boiler.
He's having a good time man.
Fuzius just killed the jiggler.
Afro is proud.
Oh yeah that was us.
Yeah.
all the jigglers yeah all right gun throwing back oh it's the going for the
molly to get them killed on the corner and now who's he one half as well
should have always been a cleanup and still is up for debate but two tag
players finished off no worries he's contain five rounds now but a by-round
coming for Astralis.
Astralis sweating yet.
CT side man, you gotta believe you can do it. You know you shut down a couple of these early rounds.
The playbook starts to shrink up as the lead diminishes and the options are working suddenly.
It can feel like a real claustrophobic game. This wasn't supposed to be a
win round for FaZe, but with how many players they lost in the in the anti-equal, yeah,
they gave, they lose all the guns here and lose the round, it's very tough economy wise,
better not lose it.
No need damage yet until that one comes down, it looks good. Straight onto the head of Hoocsy,
a bit of revenge here from phase. They were at the mercy of this utility in the first
half.
Ah, they're in this long smoke.
Over a thousand utility damage from Astralis in that first half all the way.
My ear is it.
Yeah, true.
position for the lurker. I don't know that Yabi's here. Yeah.
But you often think the gap's going to be a long right because
that's like the first guy to rotate where twist is isn't
really a position you should go sprinting out of. Trusting in
your be hold right now to always in a smoke. I think Yabi
just dies thinking he's got more room than he does. That's
exactly what happens twist saves their life. Nothing from the
lurk. So it's down to the be here three players out
through the mouth of banana.
Actually in the site, it's carrying it
floating around at the coffins to strike
another from the tally just down a two
phase. If you can win this, that's one
thing. If you can keep it squeaky clean,
that's another. That's going to give
them even more staying power on route
to this comeback. But that options out
the window with a killback. It's on
a Hoopsy 1v4. Nearly the lineup.
Nearly won't cut it. It's six for
phase. Gap continues to close.
Are you starting to believe now, Hugo?
I think I'm buying in, which might be fatal early.
And they have the Royal Flush on CT side, or they can,
if someone just drops over an Octobroke.
Frozen curd.
If he wants it, I mean, this is a pie of sorts.
And yeah, we do have the Royal Flush, four AKs,
and an Oct on the CT side.
The fuck bearded mixture.
Eternal stew.
Oh, and early casualty that you have to stomach just like that.
Oh, the naita face.
Oh, foosie.
You okay, bro?
What's going on there?
I think he was unhappy about that grenade.
He's just going to pop them through the mid-smokes.
into it. He's gonna flash between the middle.
Bong. Broke, he's got vision though.
Swing his jaw into Jacob. Jacob got a knot.
Oh, he didn't get it.
He jumped in through the HE there.
Put him in mad damage and something alongside.
They're too late. Open the line.
Through the smoke into arch.
Oh, no. This is how it crumbles.
Broke, you just need something to stem the bleeding,
and that will do.
Was he bumped into a wall or something?
Alright, Froze is gonna try and play this late, teammates are on the rotate down through, mid twists would be next to arrive.
We need some output from Froze, and there's the first pistols in front of him, and he turns into Dust.
Dealing with that wrap out through the spawn well, our FaZe clan.
And no more dilly-dallying from Raga, he takes that last time out early in the second half.
in that energy break
oh this is tightening up
line three half
they're still conversing
gunner unlocked in
anti-eco
avoided devastation
phase coming in
phase?
they're like the opposite
the fairies from peter pan
you know
they're not powered by belief
it's actually when you give up on them
that's when they're real
powered by doubt
you know nine three is just
really like an eleven four half
the old Danubex lore.
You saw a ton of 11 forward combats before.
You can see this is what Kerrigan was talking about, pre-ancient.
This guy in K, called Hooksie, is very prone to tilt.
They're all tilting now. They're all frustrated.
And I think that's why Rugged takes the time out more than anything else.
Like, he feels the frustration of his players.
Look at this. Look at this.
If you're already frustrated, this is how you get broken.
This is just ran down middle takes out a frag already the pressure applied your B players cannot return
You're on the stairs. You don't lose the bomb. Oh, no flash through though. Twist does eat it nice work from who's your little self-flash smoke push
This is really trying to dodge this flashes
I think it was a CT flash that got him first and then who see right click the smoke. Oh
Say it isn't so team flash. Oh
We hate those we do
Flake doesn't connect, Broke here alone, there's people on the side, the rotates come through, they've seen the orb, does that put the fear in Astralis?
He's not here real near, but Broke starts hitting them Flakes.
This is a good call, no matter that it doesn't seem like it's gonna end up being the right one for this round.
But from a macro perspective of the game, like phases in a situation where
you know, they can start building up some economy, they put some pressure on Astralis.
Going quick, quick as they go.
It shouldn't be retakeable, but yeah.
It's rather a couple of seconds too fast, it feels like, on this hit.
They get this kill.
Manana, anything's possible.
Fuzi's tucked in, they've got to clear this corner.
Karagan does not.
Jacob needing something.
Fuzi denies any hope left for face, but they're still going in.
They're still giving it a look.
A 2 vs 3 in this post-mort should be unwinnable.
Molly's collected for Frozen, but it's brokey.
The one that's in the firing line and they pressure him together, they get past the AWP.
He really misses.
Frozen can't hack it and that is Astralis breaking through, FaZe sacrificed everything attempting that 4 on 4.
Well, initially I thought it was good, but what they ended up doing was pretty bad.
I mean, I thought in the end they could have played Contain, right?
Like, okay, sort of concede the round, but if you manage to get all of Astralis on the way out, like, okay, then it's 10-7 for them,
for them but they have a really weak buy. You have everything you want. If you get the
reset, I mean, you're at 10-9, basically.
What would Jane do, you know?
Would definitely post his op at the bottom of Banana, or at least CT, so they can't
fall back that way and then the rifles would be set up in Banana, so they can't fall
back that direction either.
Now it's phase on the rocks. One slip.
It went so fast for that top banana clear.
It could have taken your time a bit more, maybe used some utility, or even if not,
like, just that your presence there puts some pressure on them, and then if they make a mistake,
you can go for the retake. If they don't, you just scale back, play for the exits, and save your guns.
It indeed feel like one or two seconds made all the difference for Astralis on that hit,
the size of execute, it's given them double digits, the first round of the half.
We're talking about like 20k plus in equipment value that they just flushed down the toilet.
Let's be realistic here, Astrolis win this round, they're probably eliminating phase from ESL Pro League.
This is the most important one, Broke has found a pick flow.
When you get that line, keep going Broke, keep going, you know you want to.
You know he's picking to an open house.
Yeah, no.
He's got a line for Hoogsy here.
Yeah.
Rush knows.
Believe in yourself Rush. Believe in yourself.
I mean the pressure's obviously to be the one to make a move though right? Like you have the long wrap taking shape.
Stan's going to be the guy trying to get around this corner.
This is where Rugger would really like to have another timeout because that's just
tilting in a way also from they can see wise hooksy all of a sudden like running
around and making out the rifle and making all that noise and you know it's
just kind of whack they were out long behind phase and who's he wanted to
change off the order he just picked up to try and help out his team that move
that gives over the two kills and alerts phase to the flank they're back
in they've broken the strollers down to pistols can't lose these ones after
of those successful gun rounds you want to make sure you keep a tight CT defense.
Flash!
He was ready.
Twist is roaming.
He's doing what he's required to do.
You can see him feel rather uncertain as to where he's most required.
Check a mid-bracket pop.
Synchronized flashbangs get them up and oh miss shot from Broke.
You've got a second guessing that but it is going to be enough to slow them down
on the short side.
This is going long as a question for twists.
Oh, it's the head shot cleanly.
Now broken second pass.
This is perfect.
I didn't know about Hoocsi.
Oh no.
He came as a real nasty surprise.
Look at it.
Jacob now down here in the pit all picked up over on Long.
Hoocsi, you know he tried to trade off that AWP in the last round.
Well, this time it's all he's got to work with.
Jacob continues to be an issue.
Hoocsi will rein him in.
Time, it's good, stick it
Tricky clutch especially with this lurksmog lobbed in the idea that they could be creeping through they could be in the site
Spam from the long side keeps Suksy's interest on this position
It's all the hope that it pulls the attention away from Karagin on this flank
I'm working against FaZe, after that bomb timer ticked away
A leg on the orb and that's not enough to seal the deal.
A one round game is upon us as Bayes' CT side is standing the test.
Janku said at the halftime, no matter who wins, it's going to be 13-11.
And right now, after a 9-3 half, it's barely the test of time.
Perhaps over, we'll see.
From 8-0 to 10-9.
Broke is just like one-on-one man. What's he doing pulling out the USP and wanting to chase the guy that he saw down in Connector?
Like just leave him for your teammates. He dies to the far back guy with the Galil and I mean
There was a chance for FaZe to lose that round. Just just
Calm
FaZe are feeling the humbuckets for sure. They are rapid
I'm trying to charge back!
As promised, they've had a couple of B executes.
But this time it's stacked.
It's a good time to pay CHE for those with a half full big damage.
That one's going to leave a mark.
still doesn't look like it's gonna deter them they're gonna be going for a
commitment into three-man stacks like they're going into this stack
the read here for phase anticipated to be hit extra resources available
broke he's all claiming the first stared did make it behind enemy lines
broke he tapped out as well it's carrigan wait they can't match him
massive hat trick from stare and phase with an awkward decision to make out of
position two on three they call for the save stare the savior of astralis in
this round yeah but a massive way how has he got three then the angling found
onto broke he was beautiful peeking back into him further away from the
angles could seem sticking out like a sore thumb I'm not sure if Kevin
smoked himself in the new box? Yeah, so because he's supposed to sort of ideally watch pool
from new box so that when Frozen goes from CT, you know, he doesn't have to worry about his
right, he can just focus on people that are coming through from banana and then Broke just is sort
of the safety guy with as the third player in the bomb site, but Kerrigan perhaps because of the
smoke to extinguish the Molly can't really hold that for Frozen and then
He only gets the one before he gets traded by Stair.
Yeah, there's that smoke, so Stair is able to get deep into the pool.
Karagin alive.
Good call.
I know what they're up against in this B bomb site.
This is also now the final buy for FaZe. Really in a way, final good one at the very least.
No AWP, MP7 on Kerrigan. Certainly the most important round of the game.
Rugger used that full timeout. FaZe called, but...
And the tech passed.
That's what we all wanted. That's the sound we all want to make when we see it.
The expectations were set Hugo. You just, I was probably accepting them.
I just, yeah, I've been too used to the 2-0's on the smooth, the smooth no-tax, nothing,
nothing, you're wrong.
I know, the fun bunch. Welcome to the cursed bunch.
Oh, Fusey, plug in that integrity cam.
Yeah.
Oh no.
That's where cheese comes from?
Yeah, that's why vegetarians can eat it.
Why is it a cheese plant?
Because it has holes in it?
Yeah, I think so.
Okay, good left.
He's had enough.
It's a lovely look at the monstera.
Who is it?
A monstera?
That's a plant, too.
It's watering it.
Any herbologists?
A monstera is cheese plant.
Oh, I just dropped by.
It's like the other name.
I think like, Monsterra is like a specific,
like cheese plant would be like a couple of different
Monsterras.
Right.
Monsterra is a form of cheese plant.
Right.
It is a.
Like a brand.
A brand.
A brand of cheese plant.
From the Monsterra family.
Or the cheese family actually would be from the Monsterra.
It sounds like you're putting all your money in Monsterra.
Yeah.
For sure.
Yeah, I'm showing monster restocks.
I wonder what the call will be for Hooksy in this round though.
Fuzzi has an AWP.
They've done a good job with some of these b-hits,
but even though now there were three players waiting,
Stairway was just able to dismantle the defense.
So maybe something where you take banana,
you force phase out of banana early
then you go immediately back into an A-hit with wrapping long, Fusy holding short with
the AWP, one player apps, three players long, because I think if you take top banana from
FaZe, they're not going to sit back and let you execute, they're going to want to re-aggress
and fight for it, and that you can hit that timing in the mid-round where A is the weaker
side.
It's a little sus, isn't it, the stag, it's like the big game-defining 3K, and
then his integrity cams broken.
i just can't take him seriously with that thing on his head honestly
come in a little green dude
not manly enough
what color is it about?
no it has to be pink
aggro
it pushed off to the tech you crazy
you crazy guy
don't kill out on the reaction
god foosie not a shot to miss
frozen closing
that's a disaster
Astralis have hit the iceberg and their ship is sinking at FaZe Clan!
On the back of attack pause, come through with a blistering pace!
Fuzi, next time your integrity camp breaks, don't need to pull it back on.
What a gut punch! What a gut punch!
Frozen just has his way with them.
Frozen might have just saved FaZe at ESL Pearl League.
Straight up the gutter mid the second player as well. I think you're right. It was just he just swept the nades twist
Oh, sorry. Oh, really?
He didn't turn
Yeah, fair. He was blind that she didn't know where he died from it's possible. Yeah
And then she's missing that shot. I mean it comes down to milliseconds
See they're hyped they have the energy they've got the energy is the key is the key
money on the line from
from 8-0 to 9-3.
They can break Astralis right now at this point in the game.
To 11-10 with Astralis.
Both teams are on the verge of being broken.
This round is so valuable.
That was another 40 damage made from Stair.
He is up to 700 utility damage on Stair alone in this game.
mind-blowing number
mid-pop
Bro, he's all back of E
As soon as I come back to it, they've got stairposting up top banana
What's that smoke or long? It looks missed.
It looks like they wanted to...
They're a little arch-wrap smoke, you know?
They've been throwing this though a few times.
Like this?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
For sure.
Either go through, fight library in MoO or go CT.
Put severe in them.
I think that's why Twisted's just having to sit there and hold it.
Only two big.
Where the impositioner rotate in times to this B site down to two players to defend.
Frozen opens, makes it a double, Brokey swing out.
It's not gonna get anything yet. The Nades will find Frozen.
Spam connects out of Ryus.
Hawt arrives, Carrigan maintains the advantage for FaZe,
and the dawn of this retake, Bomb goes down.
Astralis try and strap themselves in.
Tricky Tarsk in front of them. They're gonna do it without Hoocsi.
It's just this Fuzi AWP.
He could.
Open open the top.
First man in. Steps made. Fuzi picks his fight.
Locks in to this angle. They're closing in on the other side of him.
And OZ, living on borrowed time,
FaZe have tied up this game, 11 apiece.
A money and a weird spot for Astralis.
Bomb part might help them.
But FaZe, in the driver's seat right now, on the CT half.
Bomb part is everything.
It facilitates another buy here for Astralis.
It gives him another swing to close this map.
We're trying to at least get it, two map point.
Fair play to Ryomae.
He gave it a really good go there.
gets a nice double phase and don't make it easy for themselves. They keep getting 5v3 on B and
then instant double trade into a scary 3v3 position. Carrigan smokes bangers a long way.
Yeah, change the whole dynamic. Broke you want to go a little bit aggressive, things twice about it.
Oh, it is those. It doesn't care anymore. Throwing himself at them, more damage done,
I'm taking down the Poitman of Stare.
17 kills, 14 health.
You need another hero here.
Yabi was a rock on CT side, but that's been some time.
Payton switch along.
Oh, I'm carrying it, I'm broke, you rather take that fight?
Broke he keeps it in the four on three advantage phase
What are you doing?
He's got a wide open scramble
They're going to flank again
Don't like it
It's crazy
Don't like it at all
They've got a move, they've got a flank and I mean they've read it perfectly
That's the thing, Astralis Roman down on this one
Pressure from the spawn gives phase both avenues of attack
In what will be a post-bond
Oh my gosh, his engine's trying to deny them too much comfortability here, buy a bit more
time for the banana wrap round.
This time no one holding it, FaZe arrived three strong, and there's the line up, only
who's he left?
Astralis!
Where are Astralis looking?
They know B is clear, they've cleared out the entire site, they hear the CT player
spamming, it's the same round they've seen player FaZe right behind them, and this
time no one looking over their shoulder for Astralis.
It could be their pro league run ending here with a comeback from FaZe Clan.
Surely not.
Not in regulation, not this clean league.
It was what, the last three, sorry four runs of the first half, FaZe won three of them.
Sick micro managing Fin, so Karakin put in the strings to get everyone in the right places there.
It was just the pace of that clear mid called Astralis off guard, right?
They were thinking it's just one guy playing retake on B, they restaurated, they would have some extra time to set up, but it wasn't the case.
And Nade's got Hoaxie's name on it.
Gets forward of it, takes a bit of flame damage, but he's okay.
He's drawing a lot of attention to himself here, it's supposed to be a time link hit on A.
Right, he just walks through mid smoke.
There's only two defenders there for now.
Yeah, quick rep on Short side.
Here they come.
First steps heard, FaZe Clan, and he's Brokey.
That orb delivers the first, three with Deadman.
Now goes back to try and clear the arch side, but a missed shot from Brokey.
Door's now open for this A hit. Jacob is alone.
They've slowed right down, and that's lending time to FaZe Clan.
Double flank, Astralis a plant. They want to go back and fight this.
Damage inflicted.
Twist off on A and close, but a Deadman as they come back and clear him,
and that is the B play reopened.
Just Karakin's going to be there in time, but I don't know, Blocksmoked, I'd like to
have to run through this or pivot, so I think he's thrown it just in time, it's shallow,
he swings, that's the end of that, yeah.
Aw, horrible smoke.
Young Jacob, against all of Astralis.
Inevolvely hit, two of them low, has an HE.
Trades will be there.
made a quad will be misinformation. It will kill one man.
Why would he use it?
He's got element of surprise, but nobody is if he was only for a
second crossfire ready to swing on his contact. Jacob being
given nothing. This is Astralis a shot away from securing over
time against phase. It was 80 up for Astralis. It goes the
distance as Yanko said.
I told all of you, 13-11 at the bare minimum, bonus rounds optional, and Astralis got captured
there.
So, look dicey there for a second, who was it, that Hooksy who checked flank and got the
kill?
Yeah, Fuzi swung me, and then I think it was like Hooksy who came back to help him.
Yeah, that was the one.
Like if he dies there, probably the two-man flank does enough for FaZe and they're able to close it out, but into bonus rounds we go.
Alright, I'm trying to fight for this banana control.
It's a real nice giving stare a taste of his own medicine.
He's been the UD guy.
Everyone's going to the...
UD guy.
Trying to think of like a UTI joke, but nothing.
Okay, so you've got to operate an early disadvantage.
And you've lost Stair, who is one of your more impactful pieces.
Still got Fuzi?
Still got Yabi?
They're setting their sights on testing there for the brackets control.
Yabi in the apartments.
just a jiggle incendiary defense on the short side. Back to the bait and switch at long
lift like this.
Maybe this time the one tucked in, but he has health, forces a reaction. Broke, he's
won his fight with the AWP over towards B and cleared out all the- Ah, no! There's
Karrigan's swing! And that'll be the one that does the damage. Phase Clan take
the first in overtime. CT sides are where both teams did their best work, right? There was
that initial 8-0 lead for Astralis, feels wild, but that's where we were at. You'd
phase, scrape through three rounds on their tee half, but it ended up being enough, so
these CT rounds are super valuable to hold on to. So big step in the right direction
of the job is far from done.
It feels like Astralis know to
expect very quick reactions at a phase.
If that round 24 showed us anything
they were ready for the backstab.
Cover.
Frozen saves his teammates
Bacon, Twister, Living, Kicking.
Burning now, finds a safe haven
at the back, both go down.
Carrigan still remains on the B site
while Placenade does some significant damage.
Looks like it starts. We'll pull the ripcord and peace out
This is I'm hoping for like an overreaction out of phase right that's a lot of attention in it banana
It's two kills to the good you've seen phase be very willing to take these gambles to rotate heavy early in the game
And so maybe thinking that phase is gonna be out of position here, but still too strong this corner keeps getting value
The base cloud is going to go unchecked, unclear, Jacob rips it away, shot for Brokey!
And oh dear, it's down to Carrigan in the clutch.
That's one of the biggest hits and biggest misses of this game has Brokey.
Not a fun one for Carrigan.
He's already been clutching up here at Pro League. This one available to him.
Yabin not going to go down to the immediate tap.
right low HP on site spots his leg. One tap finds it now again Carragane all he gets is got on the cross I did connect
but Yabi denies and levels us up 13 a piece important round obviously with how
I'll just smoke our ship.
Didn't check the corner, corner.
That's it there.
Didn't check the corner, corner.
Corner, corner.
Trist throws an immediate half wall smoke.
And...
Oh, that's a mini-gauze.
Open!
Flying.
No waste.
What was that?
See the main character after all.
Protagonist play, flying AK.
Swiss waiting for here.
It's Molly with a fraught.
His Nade could break the smoke, but he's
broke his throwing HE after the fact.
Swiss does one, broke it the other.
No kills come off of it.
It's high investment for no result.
You can't lean back.
This is the last round.
Flash play through, maybe.
Nade again to try and break the spoke,
and down to the retake three on five.
No more Nades to blow these open with the entries
and so cleanly, Astralis have you till to spare.
Combo's are just messy for FaZe.
They've blinded themselves while breaking the smoke.
They're through two nades at once.
They wasted their opportunity to catch low players.
This is now an unwinnable retake.
He's got reexact on in the post-plug
to lock out these avenues to retake.
They'll drop their own smoke, try and play through it.
Jacobs made it in, but he's the last man standing.
And Astralis, still strong, get through with two
on these troublesome T sides.
That is a serious leg up, heading into this next half of OT.
Are they really gonna do it in overtime after being unable to close with ample advantage in regulation?
There he is, the flying Danish man.
Stair.
855 utility damage from Stair.
Next closes his frozen at 550.
Phase of the timeout.
Yeah, it's always tricky in this time, in these over times, right, when you're the team that played T-Side first,
because there's so much time has passed since you played T-Side, right,
and it doesn't matter if the other team comes back or you come back, whatever the score is in the end,
like, to remind yourself to play T-Side again and what you're going to do and what works, what didn't work.
Rugger is going to be happy to be getting another chance on the microphone as well both coaches getting an opportunity to get extra overtime time out
That was phases, but of course rugger still gets his opportunity
And a chance for Carrigan just to kind of give that last morale boost remind everyone what's at stake
They've been bringing the energy throughout the entire three-mapper fair here, but now into the bonus rounds
You can start to wane
You want to stay as locked in as possible as this is for your spot in pro league
One of these teams.
Gronki taking a lot of damage for that opening move.
Got some good information it felt like, but FaZe didn't really act on it.
Keep it simple, long smoke, banana take, phase establishing, map control.
You broke them out of taking that damage, but one thing they should be happy about is
they dodged all the early nade damage out of Astralis.
It's the later ones that they've got to worry about, right, these half wall nades
now.
Stairs been the danger man for the utility phase might dodge it all together by hoping the A play is the answer
Three strong here for Astralis
Fuzi moving in trying to take this line out towards middle, fires off and falls back
Surely they don't tussle with Fuzi at long
long. Double smoke goes in. Maybe just to keep Fuzzi's attention. Diverted his phase, go
back towards short.
Knocked off into the pit early. This crossfire down in pit side. Shabby answering first. He
got that support.
Oh, wrong log.
Oh, with Nate out or something. Quick switch. Weird way to give it away, but it's left
phase breakthrough. 3v2.
I'm with a chance to get planted.
Hootsie first on the scene.
It deals with Karagin pushed up out towards the library.
No HP on Broke.
He can't go down.
Frozen doesn't.
Stare though.
What's he got?
It was always stair.
For that head shot.
Trying to isolate you know where they're both are.
Hit the head shot.
Perfect tracking.
Broke, he's not scared.
He peeks on in on the way.
That is the most Broke he fight to take.
He's an upright.
He knows he's there.
game on the line goes for the swing and shot away from death, but that's it.
Bang a match here. See, I just, like, it's just broken. That's all I can say. He's had
some horrendous misses in this map. He has also had some game defining kills. You never
know what you're rolling on that dice.
He's just, I can't believe he's got the bravery, the balls to be going for a peek
like that way. This whole like hours of your life you've invested into this
pursuit of survival here at EPL. This is ESL Pro League and Brokey puts it all on
display. Bit of a weird one for the Yabbi's quick switch. We'll see it again here.
Look at this from Brokey. Come on then. You're moving. You're not expecting me to be peeking.
Carrick is terrified!
Well, that's the brookie of Emma.
The terror, the genuine fear on his face when he sees him going for the swing
into an enormous celebration.
Phase hold on. Holy.
I mean, Astralis are on CT side.
They went Ato up on regulation CT half, right?
This is still a position that Astralis should be favored in.
Should be.
Phase looking for the flawless half of overtime.
more nades it wouldn't be inferno without more nades have another more
dots anymore retake top banana on the second flash
there's a frozen is a bit more you told a lot of me you could try and soften
them up even more it's that window of opportunity and so strong this whole
to top banana they're gonna rotate two players out leaning into a quad a stack
phase wait with the bomb on banana even as they posture in top middle
is he going for a little sweep of his own design there one guy on B in the smoke
have you just oh he's rotating loud they hear this they know that they know
it's just opened up they've got all this room the bombs coming back is it
Are we?
It is.
Should it?
They're flanking B right now. Are you going for this, A-Play?
There's still two players in the bomb site.
What is the read to phase out?
Crossing back, stair is caught,
Fusey finds Karag in the middle.
Bomb has to commit with 20 seconds, but they're still too strong.
Gabby knocked off the boost, back of the site.
Single digit kills, it's Hoopsie alone.
The untornament lifeline rests on the captain,
and he can do nothing about it.
Wait, open pot?
Oh!
No!
He hit him!
He hit him!
He took an all-shot to the knee.
But he just stolen that round right there.
Now they're going to earn it.
Fuzio will respond.
Does get on the twist at least.
Down it is.
Kierke with the response.
No!
It's a two easy attack.
It's a wild ride.
This rollercoaster continues.
Astralis on to match and series point.
How do they win this?
in that round! I can't believe it. Why are they just running out of rules? This is crazy!
Legs in for nothing, he hit him for like 10 health! Instant transfer! Both in the open!
Broken, just a little gun! And right, really, like- That's so fucking important!
Okay! What is happening? I'll give him that. I'll give him that.
Oh my god, give me one more round!
Give me seven more.
You know what? Why not?
And the grenades continue!
Everending story, that's another big one!
Boom!
Ouch.
I mean, top performer frozen nearly dead.
Stay at the final round of play.
Over a thousand utility damage from one player.
He's joined the 1000 club, XCB set that record a while ago.
On Dust2.
Do we know the record?
Over a thousand.
Oh, Fruity!
Fruity!
He's done well, gets away.
Surely it takes a leg shot, but he actually gets one with the flames.
There we go.
Fast up left.
Carrying and catching them by surprise.
The captain putting the pressure on.
There's the backstab.
Rehumated down into the pit.
Gets out with his twist.
Stared in a strailess.
Well eliminated.
And with his twist down, and Astralis will eliminate FaZe in overtime.
A rollercoaster of a series, you never knew who was going to take it.
But Astralis able to long this out, they survived the overtime,
and they still have a chance to battle for the playoffs.
For FaZe, this is a bitter pill to swallow.
They were trying to embark from 0-2 down the reverse sweep.
So close to the comeback here only to get it robbed or away in extra time
It felt like it was phase it felt like Astralis were choking that game
Not just from the regulator score line somebody crazy bullshit clutch rounds and still Astralis squeeze a win out
They do that with Hootsie on 10 kills as well
Fuzzi Yabi stare with his shift and Ryu the 1v2 of dreams in round number 29
Astralis collect their gold, they go to the final day of play, there is still more to do for Astralis, you can't celebrate too soon, but they have survived tonight here at EPL.
Constraining one for FaZe Clan, I thought, and I think they did as well that they were doing what they usually do, arriving in the 11th hour and doing just enough to put it across the line, but Astralis do prevail.
FaZe Clan, their journey here at ESL Pro League comes to an end.
the hands of Astralis. Oh wow, I'm still replaying some of the crazy rounds we saw over the course
of that Inferno. As always, you know, third map Inferno, delivery, the entertainment value
there, you can see phases, Barth here, Alostar G2, Shaw, Alostar Payne, probably a bit of
a pain point, and then of course Astralis being that third knockout blow. Brutal. Savage.
Correct. Absolutely taken down here at FaceTime.
But yeah, I mean, whichever way you look at it, you can say,
yeah, FaceTime isn't a team that's going to play their best counter strike in an online game,
but Astralis also beat them in Cluj 2-0 on LAN, so you can't necessarily even put it on data.
I really liked their attitude these last two days.
You know, they really had good energy while playing,
and we're really hyping each other up,
and we're trying to treat it like a LAN game and with a lot of focus, but unfortunately it's just
where they are right now at the moment. Even with all that, there's not enough to overcome even
Astralis at this moment. Even Astralis. Even Astralis is a team who went international at the
start of the year, made significant roster changes of their own. They are right there now.
These teams are on the cusp of the top 10, battling for that 10th-9th place in the world,
which isn't something you want to hear as a face clan fan, and isn't definitely where this team
wants to be, but unfortunately, that's the reality of the situation. This season has not started
off well for them whatsoever, and this roster outside of the major final, obviously, which
yes, is a big result, but everything else has been really, really underwhelming.
Yeah, and we'll ask the ball if face clan are going to be turning their face around.
Does it work?
Very likely.
There we go.
Still believing.
Yeah.
Still believing.
So we're going to have a chance to speak to Neo.
Oh, Philip Koopsky.
Ah, that's what I've got.
What do we ask?
Any big questions?
Um, it can't be what's in the stack.
Like, we have to be more serious than that.
We do.
We do.
We there's there's a lot of questions for phase surely. I mean even just about my thoughts
Yeah, yeah like just going through like you know the loss against you to the loss against pain and loss against astralis
I kind of want to know as well how things are like feeling because dude like in practice the things going well
And then like you're showing up to the officials and it's coming as a bit of a surprise or you know
Is it the vibe just a bit rough all over right now?
Because I don't know man. Yeah, did you just did you have a serious talk about the vibe change?
You know like deliberate it felt deliberate from the outside looking in that like they came in with that Lan energy
You know the nice boys got turned up at S-Bell or two
I think that's definitely something I'd like to learn about and understand because you know, I imagine it is difficult for players like phase to
Turn on that Lan energy that Yanko has been talking about
There was there was a cop was there a conscious decision to do that?
And if so, where did it come from? You know who spawned that?
What do you reckon, Keeley?
I think also plans for, are they going to attend any open lands, man?
They have to.
The plans?
I feel like if FaZe doesn't go to an open land, their major qualification is in trouble,
honestly.
Like, they just have the land-win component, isn't there for them?
They haven't had really that many wins on land.
The ones that happened at the major are now seriously decaying and that's where
these teams that are going to your track your lands, I know you guys are a big
fan of that or Roman Imperiums or the Parkin ones or there's even going to be one in Belgrade
that was supposed to be in Cyprus right before the cutoff. You know that's an easy way to get
some landmins under your belt, the format also sometimes it's round robins, you just get that
and that component is only getting a win on land. Doesn't matter who the opponent is,
doesn't matter what the prize money is, like it's just so even if you go to something
like that and get a couple of wins might be what you will have to do if you want to secure
that spot at stage one out of all things at the major.
I mean even shockingly, the counter-attacks of that is the worry is a lot of those teams
coming in at low ranked.
If you lose those games online, it's really low ranked teams, you've got a hemorrhage
point at the same time, but you know we've seen even 100 teams there at the parking
right now, they came off the back of Dracula and as well, which we love and they've
been grinding them and picking up a lot of points.
Well, they all get that boost of just getting into the ranking and where you get like that big jump.
But yeah, absolutely, they'll have to seriously look at it from the side of the face climb
because you can't count on...
I'm not saying they don't have any chance against Aurora at Rotterdam, right?
And even if they lose that game, they have the lower bracket.
But still, in case that goes out, you need to have a plan B, you know?
Yeah, and I'm just looking at the teams in the same 2-2 bucket for Astralis as well,
just thinking about who they'll be playing with tomorrow.
We've got Foot, Navi and 3D Max.
And also another thing, unfortunately, with this result,
3D Max is also eliminated from the tournament.
Oh, because of the Fs.
They can only beat teams that haven't started with an F.
Yeah.
So now with Face Clan eliminated, you know.
That's it.
Chances have gone.
We're going to get like Navi and it's going to be...
The ability to get Astralis here for the final day of play.
I mean, there's been really good sides from Astralis.
That's right, they'd be faced twice now.
That's necessarily the only good thing that we've seen improvements from this team pretty quickly with this international roster.
I think it's a bit match-up dependent because of the map pool as well.
I think if they go up against a team that can pick barrage against them, that's where they're going to struggle.
But if it's something where they get some of their good maps, I think they'll have a chance.
Fantastic, I've heard good news.
Nio is ready for us, so we can go ahead and see if we can see him on our fancy screen.
on our fancy screen. Hello, Neo. Can you hear us okay?
Yes, yes. I can hear you guys.
Fantastic. Yeah. So, you know, a face clan departure, not making it to the playoffs.
It was, there was a lot of expectations that, you know, the usual face clan,
zero, two to three, two run was going to happen once more.
And it definitely looked close. A four, three map affair versus Stralis.
What's your, what's that series in review for you?
I mean, for sure, it was interesting, right?
It was a very close game, honestly we should have had that one of the last Inferno rounds.
Not much to say right now.
We got outplayed on the Ancient, I feel like we've played really strong on this too, Inferno
went like that, so I'm happy about the result for sure, there's a lot to learn
from and we're just moving forward.
Hey, Philip, commiserations.
We saw even yesterday in the game against Monty
sort of really good energy from the team,
players hyping each other up after round wins.
You know, was that something that you guys had a chat about
after the rough start to the tournament
because it did feel like the players were taking it
super seriously and it did feel like for the most part
you were playing good CS.
Thank you. Well, yeah, for sure. That's something we're trying to improve on.
There's a lot of place for improvement, obviously. We haven't had good results recently.
Yeah, this is the focus we've had so far. There's still a lot of work in front of us.
But yeah, I feel like we haven't played really bad CS. The first
This game wasn't good here at the EPL, but other than that, we've had a couple of good
performances.
Yeah, it's full roller coaster mode.
Where's the phase map pool at right now?
You started the year by picking different maps in almost every single series, but here
at Pro League, we've seen you attending towards Dust 2 more, and like you mentioned,
some success there as well.
How do you feel like the map pool is evolving?
do you feel like you're finding maybe some stability,
at least, with having dust as a pocket pick?
Yeah, I think we're trying to improve on that
and shift the weight a little bit off from a couple of the maps
we've played previously and find the comfort on maps
like Overpass, for example, we've picked Overpass last game
first time in our history.
So trying to work on that, and I
think that's a good direction for us as well.
we just need to feel more comfortable.
Like today, for example, in Astralis,
we could have played overpasses to the Finals as well.
But yeah, this is something we decide on with the team
and it's part of a process, I guess.
But yeah, trying to find comfort
in different places as well.
Phase obviously like one of the kind of biggest,
most like illustrious names that we have
with like a very unique kind of brand,
the flavor of Counter-Strike,
but lately outside of the major,
You know, like the results just haven't been there for phase fans.
I know it's been like a real rough time period for kind of getting behind the team.
What do you what do you kind of think is maybe the problem you guys are running into right now?
Because it doesn't feel bang on like the phase that we're used to getting used to seeing.
I mean, you're right.
We have a new lineup in some way.
The I mean, the core is still kind of the same.
but Jacob is new to the scene.
We're trying to find our ways with him as well.
But yeah, like you said, I mean, we still
make the interesting games happen, right?
The results are not there.
So just keep on working.
That's what we're trying to do and improving.
But yeah, it's been a rough couple of games recently.
I'm sure you're going to do just that, Nia,
as you put your mind to it.
But thank you very much for calling in.
And of course, not an easy interview, but I appreciate it all the same.
Thank you, Nia.
Thank you.
Cheers, mate.
FaZe Clan out of pro league.
I thought it was going to, I thought, I thought it was going to be in the sweet, man.
I thought it was happening.
I thought they were coming back.
I thought it was happening.
Yeah.
But they joined teams such as Bait, FaZe, Monty and Heroic.
Do you hate to hear that though?
Like, you rostered?
What?
It's been like, you rostered feel, I suppose?
We're still figuring like getting used to.
I guess I, sorry to say it, but man, time to just like cut, cut Bait.
You know, like, move on, like, take the L, admit we were wrong about this guy, you know,
even if you want to just try the one change first, like, you got to do it, because if you
haven't figured out or he hasn't shown you enough in the first six months where you're like,
all right, this is how we use them, and this is how we get going, like,
maybe it's just not the right situation for either side.
Yeah, I mean, I said above my pay grade, but I do think it's interesting conundrum
when the results just still ain't coming.
I think it's also kind of tough because when he first joined, there was this idea,
oh, it's a bit of a blank slate, you know, like you can try and put him in,
like, however you feel useful. But maybe they need someone with like more definition,
like someone who could etch out their own kind of spot within the squad without having to try
and like figure out, you know, how do we get the most out of this guy, you know?
I know how to play and I know how I want to play. I am playing in the roles and the
the positions that you guys need, that's what you need.
I think it was the same Miles Academy.
And a lot of the phase downturns you learned that carrying
would end up microing way more, and having to try and reel
everyone in.
And if that's having to happen a lot,
that's usually when phase are actually at their weakest.
They're a very reactive trust base squad.
I don't know, man.
It's a weird time for phase clan.
They've just lost that usual pizzazz
that FaZe have.
Pazazz.
Yeah, the magic.
Pazazz is not a bullshit.
It's not what we want to call it.
Pazazz is not a bullshit.
Whatever.
Yeah, he says we're still providing entertaining games, yes, but we're sort of used to seeing
those games in the semi-final of a big tournament in the arena, right, and not you guys?
Sure, it's exciting when it's a clip, but like, you know, yeah, this is for elimination.
I could rant and rave about this all day, but I've been told that we've got to
get this one going.
We've got to get this show on the road.
See FaZe games?
Yeah, we're going to go play Settlers of Catan.
had a good day but now the fun bunch and Dinko adjacent are going to be hanging out with you.
You
When I was 11, they said that I can be one of the best players in the world.
I chose to go full CS, just to sacrifice that I wanted to make to become the best.
The biggest reason that I got in the face was because I wanted to beat them.
The best advice is that you need to love the game.
In the end, I'm going to be a good player.
50 people used to live here. Now, it's a ghost town. We believe the local crime syndicate
synonymous with stunts like this is behind it. They've taken multiple hostages. It's
your job to go in there and get those folks back. So here's our location. Monacea is
the sniper you're going to be posted over the road. We already know the position of
their lookout so it's up to you to take him down bro if you're needing our
targets once they're down we're gonna need someone to step up for a few
entries any volunteers
no problem because I'm too don't worry we'll trade you treat then you hear
With the guy, it's a real life mystery.
Chill.
You'll just find the new idea.
Sold.
Hooksy to entry, and you guys trade him.
Can we stop seeing his face?
That's a potential pull it off.
Apologies, Hooksy.
Guys, you'll trade him if he goes down.
Thank you.
Hunter, when Hooksy goes down,
you'll need to trade him immediately.
Once we're in, all that's left is to close it out.
KKS. That's where you come in.
With control over the building, you'll have to grab the payload and then move out.
Wait, where do I sit in?
You. You'll be the driver.
Oh, really? What am I doing here?
Well, I guess we'll be needing any leg deals then.
The dispatch is back and looking better than ever.
Oi! Get some of this!
This season it's bigger deliveries, bigger personalities, and bigger problems.
Traits!
Featuring special guests.
Alex, what the hell is happening?
And of course, the team you know at home.
Is this really necessary?
There it is!
I'm not your boss at home!
I'm not your boss at home!
Be careful what you miss for.
ESL presents the ESL Pro League in partnership with Intel,
Acer Predator,
DHL,
Goat,
and Cat.
And that's what it is.
Welcome back to you so probably season 23 or energy, Ginkgo, back to you so probably
season 23.
We have got the Turkish taking on G2 Aurora Chad.
You got to be excited about that final game of the day.
Phaser eliminated one of these teams will not be but we're like looking forward to
seen if Aurora can get a 2-0 today, Chad, is that what we're feeling?
Philander is a prediction coming out for me, but I called it in the shuttle on the way,
and I said, Henry, G, Rhea, it is going to be a 2-0 for Aurora.
I guess you can't believe it!
It keeps things interesting on the couch, because I think G2 are going to win 2-0 today.
For many reasons, what a point, which is not that exciting.
I feel like the ping from Turkey is not great for 6-0.
Yeah, not exciting.
Let's check.
Not that exciting, but actually, yeah, what's Russ saying?
What's the ping of the Aurora plays?
Say that again.
I'm checking right now. It looks like a clean 20 to 20 water.
Where's the server, Rushley?
I don't know if I'm at liberty to say such things. I mean, this is highly confidential information.
It must be bootcamping Europe.
Is it Limburg?
It may or may not be the area region you have just said.
I don't know. I cannot confirm that.
Limburg was a great server the other day.
to secrecy. Lucky loves it. Now listen, this is important, Henry, because now that they
were a total file, they couldn't get the funding required. They're in Aurora. The boss of Aurora.
They know how to take care of their boys. 20 ping, Mr. Grip. Yeah, that's not bad at
all. I don't know. I feel like G2, they're getting like a bad reputation this tournament.
They're a slow start. I don't know. They're getting better and better. I feel like 0.1
got thrown out the window. What's 0.2? I think there's some pious is one of the
best players in the tournament so far. He's in the top three of the players in
stage of the tournament and he came into this tournament with a very bad reputation
himself. A lot of people were saying he was one of the players that had to go, but he's
turned it around and he's looking very good. So for me, he's the talisman of this team
and he's turned it all around. It's enough if everyone else can turn up.
And he's in the darkness.
And he's looking really spot on by, I'd say. Jason, what's your favorite color?
My favorite color is green.
I thought it was American U to say orange because all the maps in this pool, Jason,
will be orange.
Oh, they're all going to be orange maps. These are two orange playing teams. That
makes a lot of sense.
How could Aurora on Anubis now? I haven't commented to them since it came back.
Uh, I can't imagine they'd...
Uh, G2, that has to be the other way, no?
That is... It is the other way. That graphic is wrong.
Okay.
I'll tell you as a matter of fact, it's wrong.
I'm good, I'm lucky, I'm...
Can I tell you why it's wrong?
Because G2 would definitely not be banning Ancient.
That is...
Yeah.
Aurora's Pema Ban, and G2's Pema Ban.
What do you guys think?
Just swap this.
Reverse the logos in your mind, guys.
But that's why we're here to guide you through.
We're here to guide you through... We're kind of the narrators of your life.
of your life by the playcams of their bootcamp. It looks like a bootcamp to me. Yeah, it's got to be.
All next to each other. It's a dead giveaway. That does make sense. They lost it just to
get back to a question Henry. They lost their last Anubis, but they've won every other one they
played this year. They were like considered, I'm not sure the best, but one of the best
Anubis teams. Their Anubis record is bonkers. I feel like they got crippled when it left
the pool. I mean, that should be an indication more than anything. Indeed. And here we go.
We've got the video fixed. So that's what you all want to see at home. Mirage, I guess,
is seen as a bit of a punish against Aurora but they actually in my opinion started to look a little
a little bit better on on Mirage. Going into Anubis it's about the G2 likes to play as what we saw
them play yesterday. It didn't go well against Spirit but it got close. It was definitely
winnable. Close. How did the G2 players look during that game? When we watched them play,
when we've seen them play at our shift it's like I haven't yet seen a game that made me feel
like G2 players feel like they're clicking. Because that video is wrong as well unless
Rush sent me the wrong thing earlier.
That's well.
Right, what's going on?
I don't want to throw anything.
According to what Rush sent me earlier, Dust2 was the third map that set Inferno.
I put in the BS.
I just want to apologize.
You did it!
That was my mistake.
I just wanted to check out the chat.
Oh, Rush.
There's a lot of keyboards.
You fucking idiot.
Oh!
What?
Jay has been our fact checker this entire tournament.
And MC has been Jay's fact checker.
We're going to have to do the video three times.
Alright guys, it's Mirage picked by G2, it's Anubis picked by Aurora, and the third and
deciding map is Dust2, and that's why it is the orange map pool.
We got the maps?
We got the maps.
We got the maps.
Alright, Mirage at first.
That's all we really need to know.
Mirage at first.
Let's get into it.
G2 on the T side here.
We're going to have an execution.
Nice and basic here.
A couple of flashes, one smoke, a decoy in the mix as well, and there's a Molotov.
There's a smoke.
Henry, any switches now that you found there on the even equal footing with
I'm it's definitely a contributing factor. Yeah, I still think G2 a better team right? Okay. Let's find out
I'm Tarras. That's lovely traded nicely done from Malph's three on three
Well, happy god has just an eyelid of walk stick
Bomb plant coming in in just a second you'd imagine but G2 trying to fight for CT controlled like it's massively important
They're gonna put Malph's in there with the jewel barrettas
Come on Malph see. Oh, yeah, there it is even blind. He's so God it turned in the corner a little bit early
Yeah, and that's pistol G2 on the board look less than ideal but G2 won both pistols on ancient yesterday
And they didn't win the map so it's
Doesn't mean much not a sign of necessary success and as you guys know
I'm going for HLTV town of the year 2026 so the turkey
I'm getting on site early. You will never win banks was out there. He was converted the Chinese
He was there was a Brazilian fan base give any campaign set up in a location. I'm starting it right now right now
And I was hoping that you guys would be my running mates for this. I got you
Okay, so what you're saying is we're taking on
China and Brazil's popular not taking them on we're
We're not taking them on you want them to join our campaign. Oh, well, I'm not inspired anymore
You have to convert them. We're taking on James Banks. Yes. Yeah, exactly. I think I said now you get it
He's in I'm just saying Henry your boy walks it. I don't see a miss you till anymore
He's a huge man.
All jokes aside, that's the reason we have to get rid of him again, is he came down to utility.
You could drop this as a bot. It's been long enough now.
You want to tell the story?
It's not a crazy story.
But I think a lot of people would be interested to hear.
We get to a full e-mail.
Should we do a teaser trailer maybe?
What's that?
A teaser trailer? Can we get one?
I basically said to him, if I know your grenades better than you do within a month,
and you can't show me your grenades and I can do all of them, then you're done.
You can probably imagine that's pretty much the story.
That's if a cheeser and more of the actual editor.
Yeah, that's actually got it in.
If I know your grades better than you, you're done.
Jason will be telling the Aleesh story later.
Oh, yeah, sure.
So we're getting them all in?
We'll bring them all.
I was playing a lot of CS back then, but still, I should not know his grades.
As Dinko locking his Abyss blade to the stack.
Woxic, scope a little bit too high there, Woxic.
Not going to be landing, but Zontaro is going to always rely on him for one kill at least.
Have you gotten some pies?
Also, follow up on Mattis with Hunter making sure this round goes the way of G2.
G2 nice work from Madison way from the action as well cutting off the little lurk in a con nice easy take
Full eco we didn't say anything for the we didn't save any material for yeah, I was gonna say it's not a very interesting story
There were other mitigating factors wasn't just that there was other stuff going on
Like we were going for COVID bear in mind as well
And he was happy with Turkey sometimes time like it was like we had all the stress of COVID
He was playing with 70 80 ping every single day like the motivation play online games only we didn't go through a single
There was lots of things, but that was like the killing blow I said to do to the coffee front to learn your grenades
That is gonna be it was probably not a great movie is one of our best players, but yeah
I understand the sense of it. Oh yeah, yeah, correct an example out of it
Yeah, look Regali had a similar problem with fly quest right like I would watch a lot of their games
He'd be missing so much you too and an all-pah in the modern game is more of a supportive element
Especially some fires. Yeah creamy P. He loves throwing some nades
But if you can't land them it doesn't seem like oh we missed a nade
But when your entry frag or your space takers don't have reliable utility to play around it really
Well, it undermines everything that you practice, right?
And then the trust is gone and you're not able to do your job and you're the one suffering from that
I say that it's kind of a funny thing to say when today. I believe fly quest lost to jingus warriors
So that's a and just to note. Well, I agree with Chad his utility has gone much better not a hater at all now
It was just that was
I think he's done amazingly well. This is turned out nicely for him. Maybe this round could get quite interesting as well
Come on. This is the eco. Okay, should be fine
Magic goes down look at the MP9 to work with a couple of pistols, but it should be no under control
It's on Tara's a chance of this AK. Yeah, he's gonna pick it up surely. Okay. I'm
There's on Tara's form being I've been away for like 40 days haven't commented their games here yet
Has done Tara's been stellar as part of my campaign Henry. He's my favorite counter strike player to watch
Here's my DHL. Tell me why that is because they they're all in package what he brings like independent personality and rage
We just like what he's does in the second Turkish votes for the HLTV awards. Sorry. Yeah, I'm super important
Well, sometimes no surprise top player for Aurora. She posted a 1.23 ready at the event so far Henry
How much rating sir a 1.23 or bad?
Okay, a 1.22. So I'm a big what card is my favorite play on the scene
I think he is a brilliant Counter-Strike player and he has been for a long time underrated.
I really liked when Jota came in as well.
I thought, okay, the next gen of Turkish Counter-Strike is in the server.
We've got Wakani, we've got Jota, they're both delivering.
Obviously, we've learnt that there was some issue with the approach to the game
and Jota not wanting to do what was required of him.
And SoulFly, Jason, has pleasantly surprised me with his output in some of these Ancosorts.
He's a good soldier. He does what he's told and he delivers.
Yeah, which is probably great for them coming in with the position of Jota.
Do you ever get the sense with teams that sometimes having two really strong roleplayers is almost more important than the star player?
Again, if we're talking about like AWPers and hitting Nades and stuff, I agree with the sense.
Yeah, if your anchors are not just dying, if they're getting you the two or they're really good on the comms, you know that you can trust them.
The space taking roles are the glorious roles.
Yeah, I just think if you look at Aurora slash Eternal Fire last year, the jump up felt like when they got and secured really strong roleplayers.
Like they had Woxic, they had Zontara's but when you got Jota and you got Oolacadia performing well
That's when I feel like the biggest leap in their level occurred
Yeah, well, maybe this is the the soulfly situation
Reinforces that sentiment right because Jota I think wanted some positions that were more space-taking a little bit more active
And they wanted him to be the anchor or the guy to go in and get traded and soulfly said
Essentially he's more than happy to do that and he is getting a lot out of some tougher positions
So yeah, I think that this change or at least the mentality that backs up what you're saying
There he is look at that premium P. Has he missed an aid now? He has it nails it smashed it
He's got one more as well to work with that's one of the keep him around. All right, so
Only damage really inflicted so far as towards walk sick and has a map control
You've got Matt is trying to show some presence over towards a bomb
Lurking over towards P. He's the opening area six arrives in the server
Nice opening pick. Man advance. It should be a couple here.
Messy kill from Maja. Maybe he was one too, though.
Yeah, but look at the guy in CT spawn as well. Hunter just traversing around window room.
They know he's here trying to find him. They need to clear this out if they want to do anything to support the...
or to get over to the B-Bong site. He's keeping them so occupied.
Oh, turn it around, Hunter. Nearly spinning back to that kill, but so flight. Will be successful.
These are the two best coaches on the team. I think that this could actually work out.
work out from his entire is arriving through the apartments his class and
prices backing into a missile as a free kill for Zantara is putting mobs under
so much pressure at the bench deal with all my very kind of that's pretty bad
oh okay mobs there's a great double but much more than now fortunately
oh it's great word for mobs stylish at least on the way out the door limited
and financially there's a good amount of damage done guns need to be dropped
he had a absolute stinker in spirit so him getting that sort of confidence
So while you're hitting those shots, he's gonna need that.
Yeah, but Dong's the devil who lives under his bed, mate.
You know, every time that you're going up against Donkey, you're gonna have a tough time.
Yeah. You heard Malb's still a bit like Eeyore in that one.
Oh, dear.
Well, that's a nice little round up here together.
Got a bit uncomfortable towards the end of the 4-1,
but I'm liking the fact Malb's is looking that sharp.
Thought he was well with the series.
Sorry, it was just like stressed of losing the one before.
It was like, my brother, come on now.
Man, I could have won that.
Why don't you hit that first shot?
Watch those two taps.
Who's?
Zoom in the window, smoke.
Can't be sunny, Pete.
Easy.
Oh, oh, oh.
Maybe it was him.
Flash, better be time there.
Oh, oh, oh.
Oh, Mattis.
One off the bench.
Get traded straight away by SoulFlight.
Things settled down.
I like that.
Like a little brawl, one for one in middle.
Both teams call it off.
Stale made everyone back away.
Santar is going to control the middle of the map.
So, Vlad walks a good A,
and Major backing up in the market to be a little bit more centralized.
I think you really have to worry about these Hunter window boosts.
Right? Obviously, it feels at this point a bit of a cliche, but cliches or tropes,
it's a bit too much, right?
But they still run it, because players have really good intuition on how to maneuver,
and the player who's the best at it is Hunter.
It is kind of crazy how often you see him get away with it.
Just...
Even though you know it's coming, he just finds the perfect time in the half.
Does anyone want to put the sleeper, mate?
B-Pomsai is pretty much wide open, boys.
Yeah, I'm surprised that Major hasn't rotated that open.
I think that might be it. They've got another smoke down.
I don't think you can give this a go, okay?
No, you can't.
Especially if they're plumper short and you can molotov kitchen mages.
Yeah, that's the molotov you're calling it off.
Done.
Don't tire us too low as well to risk anything.
Yeah, back to the other.
A 4v4 save, you hate to see that!
Well, I'm seeing some people in the chat,
And they were saying a vote for virtual is a vote for turkey. No, I like that
The campaign they were saying last year
It's a year
If you guys have any campaign ideas, we have a full year that we can maybe get chaff voted as talent of the year
Send them to the mail bag. I kind of feel like a politician though because I truly when I made that tweet that got me in travel with the
turks community. It was not intentional to leave them out. I was just on my couch, watching
Blast, made a tweet, thoughtless, obviously I need to think more. Right, it won't happen
again.
Yes. Also, I think a good campaign strategy is Ragebate. I think it's very useful in
today's Iran.
I want them on my side.
No, no, no, but we ragebate our political enemies.
Okay.
All right.
Yeah.
We get them squabbling. The real thing is we need to get scrawny and banks fighting
with each other, right? And then you can rise up and know their votes will be dispersed across
the place. And then we pull all the votes into virtual coin.
Okay. All right.
You're a coin now.
Yeah, look, and that's evolving.
They're not endorsing any coins. They're not saying any coins. But if there is a coin,
not even grandma coin, I don't want to hear about it.
None of the coins.
Keep your coins to yourself. Even if you name Sonic the Hedgehog, I don't want
them.
That's a good time out for Aurora here. If you want to join us last game of
evening looking for another team through to the playoffs here my money's on GT
not that I'm betting any money just proverbial money but some coins as you
you may Henry coins yeah I put like Aurora oh I don't know I haven't
haven't seen too much recently it's got me too excited about them if you think
Aurora is losing the nervous Henry you've working up in 1984 or something
I don't know what's going on.
It is feeling rather awel-y.
But let's have a look.
Woksy with the AWP.
Tentacle timeout, saving the four players from previous run.
Nice movement from Woksy to get himself in toward the ladder and early.
That's Woksy on it.
Known for his reflexes and his speed.
Unable to find that one.
Guys are they going to window burst again?
Guys are they going to window burst again?
Guys, they're really good at the window burst.
He's actually in there.
He's actually in there.
He's actually in there.
Oh my God!
The timing on that dude!
That's the go right now.
There's no one better at this.
You've got to be aware of it.
You've got to be aware of it.
You've got to be saying, okay, there's a chance.
Hold on.
Let's see if we can get something from it.
Don't all die now, man.
I'll just be gone down.
Don't worry, don't worry.
Hunter's going to get it back.
How's everyone down?
Now he needs both kills.
He needs both kills.
Easy.
Oh, I think I split off though.
That's the headshot.
Yeah, it's back to the second as well.
We'll take it.
Sounded like that was a miracle.
Oh, Zantara's, this is a sick angle.
He's beat the ball, it's off, Hunter's not spotting for a bomb planter inside the smoke.
Zantara's makes the play, good kill.
And now he's got to hold on a little bit longer.
Stun, well done.
Take that one kill, but now an advantage for Rora.
Can they run it back into a retake?
Supply is broken!
Oh, it didn't get the smoke out in time, Zantara's dropping it, it's all on Mattis.
He dives down to his death, Santaris, with a 3k, a strong start here, Marosha Santaris
catching the perfect timing to slip in front of the utility.
Jason. Hunter's got to be angry.
Well, this is what I want to see. Hunter's got to be pissed.
So, first of all, chat to production, can we get the replays of Maga and Watts on death,
right, of their webcams, to see the shock in their faces?
Because I think that will tell the first half of the story.
Well, I mean, you've been in, you've been in.
Alright, we can do a next round. You know, there's no rush. We'll put it in the can.
Every team's got the freeze call.
Oh wait, did we actually do have rush here today?
Every team's got like the freeze call, right? Like, hey, I have the play.
Malph's was already slinking up Kat, so here's death, I don't mind. Who died second in beer pagers?
Okay, but I guess he wasn't expecting the AWP on the line.
the line. So both are excusable but was just frustrating. It is. I mean, he made that call.
Like no one died at this point. The two go down before you even had a chance to re-initiate
it. Yeah. Hunter can see more than anyone. Like no one else can see what Hunter sees,
which is I've won the round. If you guys just chill. Good kill from Wacadia.
Okay. Well, this is the most important round so far. This one will decide the economy going
forward. Set the tone for the rest of this half four and four reaction coming in from Aurora
here explore their options towards a main yeah this would have to be a recovery
mission for a lot of things this one it's after have to start digging yourself out
of your hole the holes they got they got money what about holes something about
holes the holes count up a little bit later on it's we've got a new bus it's
coming up second in the series I just give it a little teaser try the buff
maybe holes yep well they eat a lot of onions dig a lot of holes
stuck himself in the hole is lit yeah he's topical right now yeah transformers
make a big comeback making fox too that's the pop culture segment of the
show that apparently transformers good robots good set of films it's entertaining
films do you see the dinosaur one I didn't see the no I didn't watch that
Jurassic Park?
No.
Get killed.
Da-da-da-da.
That's the land before time.
Walks it along.
That's too easy.
Burning a little bit.
But 10 seconds, boys.
Tell you what, that's a big problem, isn't it?
10 seconds, bombs and connector.
That's the round.
Imagine, no!
Ah!
Imagine it's gone down.
And now that opens up the release valve here for G2 to fall away and save their weapons.
Well, yeah, I mean, you don't like that round.
You really don't like that one.
G2 couldn't even get any plans going.
Henry, if you had to measure the tilt factor of these teams, who tilts more?
Out of G2 and Aurora?
I think Zantara is just alone, carries most of that weight with him.
But don't you feel G2 comes unraveled when they have bad rounds?
As a team, here we go, this is from...
I think their mental is a little bit weaker, generally speaking,
but in terms of rage factor, I think Zantara takes the KKT.
Oh, I was chill.
Magic wasn't too surprised, but Woxiquis...
Yeah, I would think...
...is screaming.
They're definitely more passionate on the Aurora side.
Well that's what Turkish counter strikes about!
That's what it's all about.
I think G2's more susceptible to tilt, Aurora's just brittle.
Ooo...
Don't vote for Jason, vote for me.
As if Jason gets nominated, we'll have to see first.
Henry's got a couple plans to help you get there.
That sounded very cute.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Wow.
Uhh...
Now I know what I'm up against!
Let's see how it goes, that's what I'm saying.
Could be a complicated year!
As we see this round time to fall apart now against the pistols. It's gonna be Mattis. Have you gone?
Going huge and they're right back into the driving seats at Jason's on Highler
I told him multiple times we're coming for him today, Henry. I don't want to go from that hard
It's only got one game today. We might as well happen. We're gonna be with you guys tomorrow as well, right? Yeah
We are yeah, we're two games tomorrow. Let's be friendly today. Okay, so what we longer day tomorrow
Yeah, we love him in it's the day before the day off
We're all gonna be seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. There is a day off, huh?
There is a day off on the campaign trail everybody. We're gonna, yeah, exactly. We'll be podcasting Henry. We have media obligations for ourselves.
We will be putting our thoughts out there into the world. I have the day off on Wednesday. You three all have work on Wednesday.
That sounds fun. We don't call it work, Jason. We call it a paid hobby. Paid hobby.
Okay, you guys all have a paid hobby on Wednesday.
The hobby is like under pixel. Unfortunately. Well, you guys are doing a podcast Wednesday.
No, I am and then I'm doing a pub quiz.
What about James?
No, we're doing that first.
He's doing his other podcast.
Oh, OK.
Oh, the other part.
What about the popularity of owner pics
or getting case openings banned in Germany?
I guess that's an achievement in his own right, isn't it?
You've got so big, you've actually
ruined it for a whole nation.
Ruined it for everyone.
That's pretty cool.
You brought the P250X right.
It doesn't even, it doesn't even,
I didn't even look into what that was.
Is that a loophole?
So they've been doing it in France for years.
Was it like a Netherlands?
They had it as well?
Perhaps.
But I know that they brought it in.
It's like a loophole.
We can look inside the case before you open it.
I don't understand how that's a loophole.
Don't think it's a loophole.
I buy the P250 and then you get it.
I think loophole is probably the wrong term.
You get an item for the price.
You are guaranteed.
I mean, it's like there's E-regulations of guessing.
Yes, that's what they get by.
That's why they're doing it.
Maybe loophole is the wrong word.
That's the reason they're doing it.
It's the word that's going out there in the world, honey.
It's not your word.
It's a word that's being used to describe the situation.
That's exactly right.
legal experts.
I don't know what I'm talking about.
Double Ops set up in AXXU and Wiccardia.
Tough to retake with Double Ops, didn't it?
No, famously. Let's see whether this is going to be enough, though. Will the smokes land? Will there be blocks?
Tough to get past Double Ops, though.
From one of them is Waxing.
Get him off Scout!
Here we go!
Diving down into the site, soul flight straight away that,
Voxic taking one as well, so right now for G2!
It's quite limp indeed.
It's very limp indeed, it never really got going at all.
Heavy God, a resurgence that...
It's not really gonna lead too much, you'd imagine.
Voxic pushed up all the way into the ninja boxes and Hunter has fallen.
Henry, can I get permission, speaking of legality,
can I use South plus sniper at some point throughout this map?
Oh, absolutely.
Or series?
Yeah, dude, feel free.
I'm surprised hasn't caught on more.
two left-handed gamers on the server today taking each other
he's the left-handed lunatic
don't do it Tinko this is how he's going to try and get a cast for the year
I don't think I'm in contention for that award I'll be honest
I think it's a pretty safe bet I won't be winning that one
guys just quickly right
Henry with the term Southport Sniper that's cultural impact
he doesn't own the term but he's made the term
I'd like you to be a thing yeah
but it feels awkward you know while Henry's right here
he opened it up it's good
He opened it up to fair use right out of the gate.
Yeah.
That was a pro league like three seasons ago, maybe four,
maybe five.
I think it was more than that, mate.
Six.
Yeah, I think it was that.
Maybe like six years ago, I think, actually.
No, it would have been 2023.
I think it was the first of the new season, right?
First of the new seasons.
I swear you've had it for ages in the Southport Sniper.
What team was Martin playing for?
It was what we were doing those, those actual, like,
walkouts at the pro league.
Yeah.
That was at least 2023 because I only came back in 2022.
And that was when it was at the other side of the pool.
In Malta, yeah.
Well, we did Selene, you and me.
Yeah, that was 2022.
Yes, and so that was Morgate.
That was Morgate.
That's been simple.
Those were simpler times.
It was, well, I literally had them hard in the pub.
That's a new map, and it's Chattanoi as the duo.
Yes.
What a time that was.
What a time that was.
We had Hooksy come and join us for the film.
We had him at bed.
Hooksy had him at bed to come to the film with us.
What a pro league season that was.
Chattanoi is a main duo.
The whole season.
It's beautiful.
The RMR was built right after it, too.
We had like two more weeks of the RMR to do.
Holy.
And that's when we did the skid as well
where we threw Chatham through the ocean.
Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And I was showing, yes, that's right.
You came running out.
I went in my shoes, I ruined them.
Oh man.
All right, for our audio only listeners,
the score is five to five, G2 just E code B.
They lost the round, Aurora have tied things up
and we're gonna go into round number 11
with the possibility of a seven, five or six, six scoreline.
Take it away, Jason.
Quite a little bit of a comeback here
from the Aurora boys, so...
You're gonna have to hit this one, Jess.
That's the HGM now.
There we go.
Okay, four of the last five for Aurora.
Here we are.
Round 11.
Nothing too crazy.
Little bit aggressive at the top of the ramp, and G2 lining up for a default.
Surprise is actually going to be flashed in for once.
Two coming in for one.
Here we go.
Here's the push down.
The dodge to the flash.
There it is again.
Zantares.
Play that in slow-mo.
The dodge to the flash right there.
That is a thing of beauty.
That is his wild, dude.
He's got style.
That's why he's the left-handed lunatic, aka mad dog.
Southfall Sniper and a left-handed lunatic all in one server.
Oh, imagine them in a 1v1.
Oh, they're crazy.
We need that to happen.
It needs to be an epic 1v1 too.
So we've got left here.
An A execution.
Didn't go too well before.
As we said, the opposite word was limp.
You never want that to describe you in any situation,
really.
No.
I'm thinking of one.
I don't think of a single white fly.
Envy in the sauna?
You were limping the sauna?
Better than the alternative.
I don't know about that.
I think it's a bit aura, really.
Wokse gets one here, at least.
Right back in the round.
We've got an execution here of sorts of plastic.
And Wokse's getting two, not quite.
Some pyres are finding the most over the corner.
And all of counter-strike, some pyre stone.
We're checking it with a nice prefire as well and we can't hear without the second view open
Yeah, that's great delays everything and that opens up the flank so it's one be free
I'll have to consider it. He's the anchor so they they're going to pennywood drop and go. Okay. Well, he's up to something. He's up to summit
It's giving it a look in it's a freebie
I got the dink on some bias but taken down from jungle
That's why Maju was hard clear there because if Soulfly died taking contact he might have gone overlooked
But the problem was Soulfly the Aank and nameplate counter strike Rush take it away
I'm plate counter strike. Here's the flash. Oh what a turn from that
You're a big matters fan on you. I
I took a feeling that you straight in there same matters
I don't think he's made a name for himself this guy the reason I like this guy. He's sharp
He seems like a good communicator. He's he's a player's player
He plays team base
And I like how he's very emotional on the camera too you get a lot of great
Yeah
All right
You're gonna clear your code this started with Hunter walking on the palace smoke a free kill for walk stick and all of a sudden
She too right back into a 4v3. We got Mattis. You get Mattis if he's any sort of player. He's checking this
He did he checked it. She's got checked out. Sometimes it's all you can ask for you know, he did the right thing
Yeah, it was nice work from out there
Jill
Okay, I just round his back on all right was window smoke for mobs
Con Smoke as well, showing they want to bring some forces up short, trying to keep some attention
in the other direction.
You wait this out, you feel like you're going to now.
They smoke behind him.
It's a bait smoke.
Uh-oh.
I got you, I got you, I got you, I got you, I got you.
You may hear that from Farbuck?
He ain't gonna have a problem.
Smoke, yeah.
There we go.
Flash coasting in and he gets hard cleared anyway.
Pretty good effort.
Zontar is his head.
So they got the MP7 though, needs a couple.
And he's going to find out who's left. Malibs pretty far away.
Yeah, he didn't come up short with the attack.
He actually scaled all the way back to follow their path to be a late lurk.
Watch the flank, play the post-plant, just never got down.
Twenty seconds he's got a chance.
Okay, now Woxic's low, so Malibs has a shot at this.
Woxic, how cool is he under pressure though?
There's the p-kill and denial of the bomb plant and clutch.
We've got a six to six scoreline.
Looking like it's going to be a close one here on Mirage.
We'll see who edges it out after the break.
Good evening, gamers. We need one more team to make it through the playoffs. Will it
be G2? Will it be Aurora? Who knows? You split the first map right down the middle.
We've gone 6-6. You can hear Dinko in the background. You can hear Moses breathing away there. How do you do it?
Oh, I thought we were breathing. Still breathing, obviously, which is always a nice thing.
Always bloody breathing, James.
We're going to have a little bit of a delay to the start of this second half.
It might be longer than little. It might be quite a big delay.
It could be. We're not going to say anything more than that, but it could be a longer delay than usual.
But I have something for you.
We love delays.
Yeah, we've, well, sort of...
In a way.
Right now, we have.
In a way.
What do you got, Jason?
I got something for you, Henry.
100 Thieves just lost a series 0 to 2 to a team called AM.
The new youngest Swedish star, yes.
Keto, Cubely, Guilty, Altex, and Lumi.
Which tournament is this, Dracula?
Close, Park and Challenger Championship.
What's her name, Henry?
We can go in there in a couple of days.
That's true.
The new young ace for 100 Thieves, Swedish boy, Poi.
72 kills, 30 knockouts across the two maps.
And they lost?
This next closest teammate
34 kills who was it who was next agile agile dude. It's not even the good, you know
Thinker we want the Portuguese votes as well. We want all the vote
Devon went 30 and 40
Not as best work rain
Certainly not as worst work
My boys having a sad night
Damn, dude, you know what now would be a good opportunity while ever delay. What's up?
Shout out to the DHL Malbag at efg.gg sending your thoughts now
To DHL Malbag at efg.gg and you can help us through our technical Phil
If I'm not part of the show four minutes now
German I will do something in between. I'll do some positions
Forget it's ready for a new bus. Anibus. I mean we can do it. He's worth doing now
I need to get it done
No, because we're back live, so let's go.
Yeah, well, dude, I thought this would be a long end.
No, no, no.
We figure things out quickly here on this shift.
Okay.
Henry was getting entrenched.
He was ready.
Shoes are off.
He's actually getting profit.
All right.
Let's set the tone.
Let's give it the beans in this one.
It should be a great game.
The hype!
There it is.
That's all we needed.
It's going to be Aurora switching over to the T side.
It ain't slowing down, though.
It's looking like it's going to be quick.
Into what that A side contact play into the flashbang is ready to be deployed.
mouth to defend. Dinko, take us away. Yeah, Smelb's off the top of the stairs. You just
heard the bird shell campaign slogan there, and it is going to be a high pistol as the
smoke goes down for the cross. Plenty of players now inside of the bomb site. It's going to
be a heavy retake here. Everybody's still alive.
Five on five retakes. Not too much fun from the CT side. It all comes down to the
CT spot. Oh, you throw that smoke as well. Now they have a smoke. They have
a kit. They just need to find a way to get in position, so they've worked themselves
around save the decoy nobody that look guys they could do it they can still do
it they can do it it is doable now zantara is still kicking about though
that's good night should have saved it on tires has come through with a 3k
there's no way you were winning this one G2 it's all over Aurora with a great
star here in the second half all right guys if we're gonna break this down from
a technical perspective that was a premeditated deep smoke over towards
CT that one wasn't thrown on the fly and if you were paying attention you will see the orange chem trails in the sky as
The smoke lands deep into the CT spawn
Taylor Swift song of Lana Del Rey
We might be able to get this one on the replay here doesn't look like it. We're going over the kills
But I should have a child I shall I know you did live but these clowns weren't paying attention Jay
That's why I'm pointing it out. I think I called the smoke as soon as it was thrown. Come on guys
Let's be honest with ourselves here, shall we?
Well, we got a force by here.
Let's get this side to fate to G2.
She will smoke from Maja?
What voice is that, Chad?
MC.
What are you going for? Like a meld of what?
I just wanted to get people's attention.
I'll put them something different.
Okay.
Chad has these kind of wacky characters.
You're not even sure who they are.
I don't think they know who the character is.
I don't know if they're characters.
I think they're just fully fledged personalities.
There's the flash through.
We cleared CG spawn.
It's a save for the G2 CT side, they want nothing to do with the team damage, that's not cool.
You know what to do with Cardio?
He's got a smile on his face as well, not even an apology.
Right, we're friends, right, we're on the same team.
Anyway, well hopefully everyone's kind of looking out for themselves a little bit.
No they're not.
In life.
You don't win a loan in Counter-Strike, Henry will tell you that.
A lot of laughter going on behind us.
Hey Rush, a lot of laughter from that.
What's that?
What's going on over there?
What's going on is you know how where we Katie is shot here in wikipedia? Yeah, whatever he shot
Right, is that right? It's so fly correct. So he did shoot so fly up
So Jay com that the bestie to get like a little camera bit and bass is confused like where is he tea?
And then he goes into ticket. It's like say take it say
So you guys got bad coms over there. Yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey, brash every time you say soul fly from now on it needs to be in the west
Jackson wants the guy who seems to love songs in the deep voice. Oh Barry White. Let's get it on. Yeah
Yeah, give us some Barry White Rush. Yeah
No, it's not sexy enough. So come on rush sexier. Oh, there you go
That's the one can that up
Well Barry White and counter strike never expected them to intersect but here we are
They get so pro League season 23 with the Simpsons one of Henry's favorite episodes the snakes in that one
That is a great episode to be found.
Real good episode.
That's an old school.
That's like a series two, I think.
Oh, those black bars.
Yeah, absolutely.
It's four by three.
Yes.
I thought you were born, dickhead.
Yeah, yeah.
Very much so.
Exactly.
We're into a fast play here.
It's going to be the second one of the Jerry Pore Soul Fly.
I like to cheat too, but same result I'm afraid.
Into the A-Side we go.
Very clean.
Champ, they are looking quite good right now.
I'm not saying you're wrong. I had a different opinion at the start of the game.
Well, let's give him a gun round.
Exactly. Thank you, guys.
Give us a gun round.
Thank you.
But it has been a bit flat today. No one's going crazy for G2. Everyone's playing a pretty average game.
I hope the fearlessness of a roar in a round like this translates to the gun rounds.
That's what I want to see more than anything.
Well, as Henry would say, you've got a bonus round coming up next. Look at this.
That's true. You do have a bonus round.
Just do it again.
More time the manner terms that I came up with that I don't get credit for is unbelievable
Well, I think I was trying to credit you for Southpaw sniper, but you wouldn't take it. Well that one I yeah
That's not me though, but in terms of
What's that
That was the unit one round
And it was like a whole thing we have to call it the Jaden round. Yeah, that's true
Bring it back to the Simpsons Henry, you call them the Bartmans.
The Bartmans?
Yeah, actually that is a bit of fun, you can call them the B-apartments, Bartmans.
If you're a little bit bored on the front end.
I'm going to make a crazier claim after this round, I'm going to make a crazier claim that
you guys are going to hate, but I'm going to make you.
Oh, I love that.
No one's going to accept it, but I will go back in the archives and I'll prove
it to you.
That's how you do a teaser try.
We've got the craziest claim to counterfeit terminology that you're not going to like.
I love to hear it.
You're not going to like it.
Put it out there in the universe.
Sorry.
Like honestly, it's going to be such a debate.
You guys are going to disagree with me.
I have one.
No one's going to believe me, but I will have to.
After this round.
I want to hear it after this round.
Yeah.
That's fine.
And I'd prepare yourself so that it's going to be an argument.
It's going to be an argument, okay?
Someone's going to put this off.
Yeah.
Like Chad especially is not going to like it.
Oh, wow.
Maybe even Jason.
Wow.
I think we'll probably be different
Wasn't around
I was on time to lead to what I don't think you spotted heavy guy
It didn't even run as the phone is trying to either they've got rid of the Mac 10s. Yeah one so into a regardless
So if I take it down hunter on rotation
I'll do it with that as well. It's just maps to find here on the side
He should be a dead man walking can't even get the job done the Mac 10 strikes and will creamy P
They're all low. So let's have a chance
I don't want to bring this up.
Bring it up.
You primed us. Bring it up. The Wild Clane.
He's looking at me.
You know I like you. You look at this agree with me.
I'm telling you. Here we go.
I was the first commentator
in Amastrak history to refer to grenades as utility in general.
I was the first one to start calling it a star ladder, etc.
And there was a big debate with Lepus at the time.
He didn't agree with me. He said I shouldn't call it utility.
I shouldn't refer to the grenades and that stuff as utility.
And it was a big Twitter debate. He actually called me out saying why do you refer to this?
Why does he think I would disagree with this stance?
It's a pretty bold claim to say that.
It's a very bold claim, but I don't even know it.
I was the first person ever in broadcast history to refer to this utility. It was my idea and it became the global term for it.
Interesting. I wouldn't challenge you on it.
I don't even know what it was.
What was it called before?
It was Grenades.
And I started calling it utility and it became this big Twitter debate between me and Larpus.
didn't like me didn't think I was any other analysts at that time wasn't even
commentating you and tesla we like it exactly yeah exactly um so yeah I didn't
get any pushback from that you guys are happy with that claim well I got back
in the archives and Twitter but they equal community know Henry G you can
do so at the mail back is a little baggy if yes someone can find that thread
someone else could do the research it's from lapis and he was like calling me
out for calling utility 24-15 yeah 2014 yep well it's a great story here the
second half from Aurora they're now up 10 to 6. I thought it was going to be more inflammatory.
I thought that was a pretty crazy claim. I have one that I think could be inflammatory.
Okay. You want me to try? Oh, if you can do it quickly, sure. I think I have, I think I was a,
I brought up the concept of like a spray transfer of someone transferring the spray from like one
player to another. That was like something that wasn't discussed much. Back in the 40s,
what are you talking about? Spray castering. I was the first one to use that term in the
As far as I know I'm not trying to claim it
I've got the I've got the claim with the tweet. That's why I can comfortably say I'm not sure
Jason say I think I was saying that's better than yours. I think I was saying as a player. Yeah, as a player for sure
Yeah, I don't know. We never gonna multi-kill in our life. You guys played in the CG
Oh, it's a weird things. I don't know what's going on over there
What about you, Chad?
Chad, have you ever played?
No, dude, I don't need to polish my VIP live on anything to table for counter-track.
Anything, Chad.
Say something inflammatory.
No, I don't have anything to say.
I just rock up and I talk about the game and I give it my best every time, you know?
That's all I can do.
Just like Sunny Pee in this one.
I actually missed this round.
I was so annoyed with what you did.
What were you talking about in the round?
G2 on the round.
Wow the round and it was definitely a wowser because they didn't have great weapons. They had an AWP which was unexpected
That's why they won the round
When you call the little bald guy from the looney tunes, they will count so much first. Yeah, I'm refined
That's what I felt like right there. He's hunting for wabbits. Yeah wabbits and wounds
See that smoking spawn guys that that's missed
That's a shot.
I was looking at the T-Sport and I thought we were looking at the pistol again and I
was like, shit, Chad's calling us out.
Oh, no, I can't.
Man, sometimes they do miss these intents and they feel like, you know, they're not
in T-Sport.
What would you call that?
A smoker utility, Henry?
Dude, I can't believe that.
That's the first time I've made that admission on a broadcast.
Live on air.
I'm glad you guys accepted me for it.
And who I am as a person.
I'm glad the same respect was given to Jason
I think
Utility has been around for ages hasn't do it back and watch the group file find the tweet. I have the tweed
I was lucky. Take it away. All right. Take it away. We're cardia now coming through the lower
Turn on he's not a tough a kill up towards Mattis. Is there another one for we're cardia perhaps
Waiting for it hunter back in jungle in the meantime. So Tarzan comes up a friend
And it's the jewel of death here for Aurora coming out on top of the frags again and again
Aurora lose the last round, but looking like they're gonna bounce back immediately and be up 11 to 7 and honestly chat
It's starting to look good for your prediction of a 2-0 for the Turkish team today
Some people said I'm never wrong didn't go
Those people aren't here right now. Yeah, where are they?
Are they in the room with you?
I'm literally here, Chad.
So, Rosh.
They're fishing right now, boys.
Have you got any surprises to see if there's any more oversteps in the mark?
I don't think they will actually be giving this a go, but if they can get a kill...
You ain't pulling anyone into the open here.
Very good fundamentals right now on this way.
Great shot from the sole fly.
Sole fly.
There you go, and that'll be round, so 11 to 7.
The Turkish side.
All the utility bomb just hit the Twitch.
What are they saying? Henry G Giga chat. Not chat, chat. It's it's pretty new to the whole
chat right now, but it's all fine. I don't think it's new to chat. I think they're just
broadcasters. Oh my God, no one cares. True, actually, actually true and real. That's
a good sign. I was coming in from the humble pub. I will look in for the last few rounds.
Henry was cast maxing right now with Jester maxing and right now there are a frame
Morgan G2 here on Mirage.
Just cast the game.
Is it too much to ask?
Little bit.
Never gets old, does it?
That line.
Which is cast the game.
Yeah, it is like every time you look at Switch Chat.
Someone has to say it every time.
It's kind of, you know how we have bits, like it's kind of a bit.
It's a Twitch bit.
It's Twitch bit.
But Twitch definitely have a lot of fun.
We have fun.
Hey, man.
Last season, we opened YouTube Chat
And those people are mean.
Very mean.
What they say?
Well, we give them some love.
And they're like, oh, first shout, you guys are pretty funny.
And they're like, but YouTube chat.
Let's check how it's going over there.
And there's like a few casters that.
Well, we gave it a go.
We tried to include them.
So we closed that one.
OK, it all comes down to this.
He's got this surely Aurora in the driving seats and
suppliers is going to be awkward timing here.
Oh, wow.
You're going to free be away.
There is a bit of safety net though.
Heavy God, considered one of the best anchors in the game I know Chad, is that a crazy statement?
Not a crazy statement.
I think that's a totally fair one.
He plays hard anchor positions on all maps, whereas some other people who are winning
anchor in the year award don't.
So there was a whole big conversation about this.
I think the title of the award needs to change.
I think that's fair.
But what talent would the year, that needs to change?
I think the voting process does.
What's in now?
The voting process.
The Jason.
Oh, I wasn't going to have a crack, but it would get him.
No, I don't care about the voting.
You can have a crack.
Go for it.
Oh, no, I'm not going to do it.
What you got?
It's going to be he invented spray transfers.
There was that.
He invented spray transfers.
Oh, I'm glad.
I'm glad I said it just so that came out of it.
It's so good.
We're going to be dying out of it.
We're going to be eating on that.
12-7 now. Hunter 1v4 goes down to Zintares and the 2-0. It's on the table. It's a Nubis
up next. It's one round game. Wind it up, Dingo.
Yeah, well as we all predicted, of course, Aurora coming in with sheer dominance here
on Mirage clearly displaying that they are a better team than G2 today. And now we
move on to their home ground of the Nubis. It's the first time Aurora have been
able to get this map at the competition.
It's going to be a good long wrap. I like this.
The last time they played it was against Na'Vi, that was back at PGR Clusion, Nopaka as people were saying towards the end of the competition.
And unfortunately it was a loss for Aurora, so they have redemption in the cards, not on the cards, but in the cards.
Dinko, people are asking what have you invented?
Not much, not much yet. We're going to get to that point at some point in my life, but Wakadi has been able to take himself two frags,
and we are stepping in that inevitable direction of map 2 with Aurora looking like they are in pole position to close this one out.
Well, surely they were just to sweep this one out.
Look, all the nades, those two kills came in so early.
MP7 on heavy guards, half HP for Hunter.
You wait for a CT rear-grass for probably the next 20 seconds.
If nothing happens, the Magistar's calling you into position.
I think we have got a virtual segment after this as well,
I believe, right?
Yeah, look, I'll do something.
He's going to go over the positions of Anubis.
Are we fun for everyone?
Everyone's enthused about what's going to be exciting for that.
Hang around.
the early shift had two games to get something done but
they just decided no we won't do it, we won't do it, we won't do it, save it, that's fine
thanks guys
see us
well I'm glad I stopped wrapping it up because this has been a very long round
43 seconds left and eventually we're going to see Aurora
start heading down middle and towards the connector
well the bombsite is empty now some pyres though he could still be a threat
He could still be a problem, and he will be towards Madger.
Taking that kill, it's Hunter's turn, and G2 will go on time yet!
Number 13!
It's a magic number!
20 seconds, bomb down, bottom con.
That's round.
Not gonna happen for Mr. Soulfly.
But he's gonna give it a go.
He's stabbing me out and dying at the hand of the heavy gun.
What's that financial situation look like?
They're pretty good, aren't they?
Are only Madger at 3.6?
They can drop one, yeah.
Yes, they're all good.
This doesn't feel like as overtime written all over it though if they give this round up
I would say we're definitely on the right track
I think we're still in regulation even if they lose this surely
Could be a moment where I wrote you break down could happen any what mentally could be happen at any point
You're breaking if you're breaking up to this round, right any any point. Okay?
Let's see what was always possibility quiet landed nice little flick attempt
Just count the name again.
We've done trying my best.
A couple of AWPs into the mix here.
Heavy God known to be quite a capable sniper, as reference.
He's the anchor.
There's a quite a profound question that follows just Cast the Game.
It's, how do you just cast the game?
And really, that's a great question.
How will we do it?
We're about to find out.
Some bias and mobs.
Could be looking down into the ramp.
Bacardi has found a nice comfortable spot behind the top midboxes.
And he's just going to hang out here for a little while.
The question becomes, off of the Sampias A ramp aggression with mobs, do they push the issue?
Because they're very sight centric at the moment, they're not playing for any mid-control info.
By virtue of the AWP towards BF, I suppose they feel so comfortable on this side of the map with this setup.
Got the turret, you're not necessarily expecting having got to have the AWP here.
He gets one and survives, which is looking very likely, I think they're looking strong.
Going. Yeah, have you gone back in off the DAWP?
Say a couple of moments, but not this time.
Massive kill.
Destroy it from the corner.
It's not a choice, Ivan.
Uh-oh, Mattis need one.
Please stay.
He's got his one.
Got his one.
Always gets one.
All Mattis.
Imagine Woxic, a 2v3.
Can they close this out?
Bomb is going down.
Woxic could be pushed up by Hunter.
And so it is Mattis for a 1v3 to close the map.
Can he actually pull this off?
Nope.
like it. It's fair enough, Henry. And, uh, yeah, let's you check that. Rhetorical questions.
Yeah. Oh, no. Not at all. Om goes down, though. Obviously, Lost Bonus has gonna,
is, excuse me, going to start to build ever slowly. This is surely partial territory
into full buy into the next, or, or your full sender. Would you be here or okay?
If you want to make it really difficult for yourself full send they go through a set piece
Just partial. No, they probably will I think it's just yeah, just a little tease. It's just a little tease
It was on the idea did buy a Mac. That's right. Okay, he's gone from a ten instead
It's one of my one of the funniest stories Henry tells is back in the day just new members when we had to type the money
Yeah, Henry would just type the money, but he would just say he had more than he had so the
I was always down to buy, I was like, I'll take the, I'll have so you cheated.
I'll buy a normal armor, don't worry about it. I'll buy no names.
Why is this? You can't take scummy guys.
Because I wanted to raise the confidence of morale.
I said like, yeah, I had a couple hundred dollars on that, like, that's buy, I'm feeling that.
To be fair with Source, you can always afford one of those deals.
Hold on, you had to type their money?
Yeah, I think I did.
You had to type their money at the start of the round.
Oh my god.
And you just cheated.
Why is that to do with this?
cheated. My teammates, sure, not against the other team, but I would lie to my teammates.
Every time a round ended, you had to, well, you didn't have to, but in team Counter-Strike,
back in the day, you would type how much money you had, right? So like the round ends, and then
it starts to learn to, yeah, 4.5 or whatever, right? Well, no, that was how we would do.
It didn't suck, because it was all we knew, right? And it's just the way it was. It wasn't
a bad thing, right? A lot of what's lost in the modern game, because of the way the radar
works and the money situation communication is dulled huge right because it things are
now more intuitive and on the screen for you and it's taking you bring in a dossier information
of all your tactics of the paper as well I think that should not be allowed I hate the fact we're
allowed to do that you reckon burn the trees why I think so because you let's say I play a
lot of chess right and the way I play chess I have all my notes and opening moves on my other
monitor and I feel like I'm cheating by having all my moves and like ideas and all my
I feel like that is part of the skill, and I feel like that should be like a test for who you are as a player.
What if we do like a middle ground, and the players aren't allowed to, but the coach...
And the same way in chess, you're not allowed to have all your opening moves, any reactions to whatever happens.
You shouldn't be able to rely on pieces of paper and counter-strike. In my opinion, not saying it's a fact, whatever you want.
It's a fair game.
I'm with you, Hannah. I feel the same way about it.
Interesting. Well, let's lock in, boys. Two rounds left, so we have overtime.
G2 are doing their best to claw this one back. It is their map choice.
choice it is the new bus up next and Aurora they no longer have them on the
ropes due to our believing the double all set up in play again heavy god to
maintain this early information some pious wielding his and once more Aurora
are not playing through middle so in the ebb and the flow of the game of mid
control into splits they're not playing to fight that right they're playing
very sight-centric on both sides of the server at the moment
what are we doing here we're setting up like a little almost let's say fake
Yeah, like you're you're at least given the education you want to take man, but it yeah
I guess they obviously don't know what the setup is on the other side, but
The weakness at the moment is heavy gods all pumpy, but what you've shown you flash you flashed a ramp
Yes, so the CTs are saying okay. They've cleared a ramp. They've checked it out
Now you have major throwing a set of utility over the wall probably two smokes, right?
They'll know because malbs is forward in apartments essentially
Yeah, but heavy gods alone and there's no one close by Madison's on the fastest rotation
So Heavy God should not move.
The fake means nothing, there's no steps, there's nothing behind it.
There's no commitment to it, but when does the B hit go?
Now we come. Heavy God, off the hand, miss first shot.
That's not good.
No, no, no.
Know what you want to see from Heavy God.
Now game body sink done.
This could be it. Aurora.
5v4 to close out this map.
To close out Mirage.
G2 is a map pitch.
Oh, ho-ho-ho!
Got him all through, Zontaris!
He's gone into the market.
Yeah, very cheeky frag there from Zontaris.
Gotta go for this one, G2.
Waiting on Mobs to get in position as short.
That kill from Hunter is fantastic.
Wiccardia brought down numbers even down again.
Opens up the avenue for Mobs with that kill, so we start sliding up short.
And some pilots trying to come out of the market by Zontaris.
He's got the kill again.
Zontaris stepping up, so fly getting one of his own and Sonny P
has knocked it enough in him to prevent it from happening.
and 13-10 win for Marora taking Mirage, they are set up to win this series 2-0 as Anubis
waits in the wings.
Thank you

Ugh, not this guy.
Casting.
Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright. We got a newbiz coming up next.
It's the choice right now of the Turkish side of Aurora. Who would have thought this is their home turf?
Let's get into some of the particulars shall we.
I am pretty sure that we're gonna have G2 starting on the T side.
side. So let's talk about how they're going to be taking map control on all of their gun rounds.
We're going to be having heavy God. He's going to be going to get the main baskets control.
He's going to have the support of Hunter in certain rounds. Hunter likes to play in through water to fight for connector.
You are going to be having the likes of Mattis outside the main, working for that space. You're going to have some pious, the AWPer.
Now he's going to be able to hear there and everywhere. Right, some pious. We've been talking about the needs that he throws to support the team.
a facilitator as it were and when he gets to the orb, it's a bit tough to go for a lot of picks other than
T stairs to connector, maybe going for a B-N-Ain fight, but it's not easy for an Orpah.
And then one more man, where is he? Malbs. He's going to skirmish over towards middle across the
bridge, taking those fights and space. Now that's, they're going to be there, T side complexion.
What are they going to have to fight on the other side of the map? Well, let me just slide
across. Zintara is going to be the man tussling with Malbs, right? He's going to be going
for those head-to-head fights. They'll be trying to bog each other down in that part of the
the map control. Woksy could be the all plus. I'll place him back here because he's going
to be in rotation. You see Woksy game main. You see him helping middle going for peeks
through the hole. You see him over towards B assisting that defence. You're going to have
the likes of Wokadia. He's going to be anchoring the A site. So you're going to see jewels
between Wokadia and heavy god in this one. And then as we keep going, Maga, which
is quite interesting, he's going to play over towards E-box, pop, whatever you want
to call it. Having in-game leaders play this position is one of the choices, right?
we saw with spirit, they have
donk there. But I think this is
a very util heavy position vitality
play apex here. So it's about the
combinations of you to be able to
get good reads off for what is
happening and essentially you're
playing a block as opposed to
fighting a lot of the time. So
imagine we playing this and then
the new boy soul front. He takes
a responsibility of being the B
main anchor. So these are
essentially if we had a football
pitch where you can be seeing go
and toe to toe with these teams
in this one on the first half
of play. So look out for that
be long don't get too far we'll be right back with you so probably in the 23rd season

Just play together at the bomb. I'm ruined somewhere.
I'm gonna go crush him now.
I'm far enough.
Yeah, he's in CT.
CT.
Don't pick it, right?
Right.
That's like...
Nice one.
What the fuck was this?
One guy.
That's it?
Thank you, thank you.
I see GG, GG, yeah?
When I was 11, they said that I can be one of the best players in the world.
I chose to go full CS, just the sacrifice that I wanted to make to become the best.
Of course it's a huge deal to be high alone based.
The best advice is that you need to love the game.
In the end, I'm going to be a good player.
I'll kill you!
Welcome back to energy gentlemen we have got Aurora heading into Nubis for the first
time here at ESL Pro League season 23.
We've got G2 coming into the server as well.
It's going to be a tough task to try and take them down here but you said earlier Chad
that G2 don't mind playing a little bit of a Nubis.
Yeah, look, we've seen him play it a couple of times throughout that campaign so far, so look, they're not out of their depths in this one.
It's a map that I think they also have some opening moves that will be a little bit interesting.
Yesterday, they didn't like their tempo against Spirit, it was very slow.
But historically, Aurora, one of the best Anubis teams of all time.
True. Yeah, that is true.
Four of five Anubis games that they played in the last three months.
So, they're feeling it right now. They're good.
With it coming back in, they're very happy people.
So you're saying there's a chance of a 2-0 here and our next team through the playoffs could be Aurora.
What have you got on the screen?
This is from J-Dogg using the DHL Mailbaggity of G.GG.
He said, What's up? I was able to put to use the virtual method or some variations of it
when I was playing a 10-man on Anubis yesterday.
And we went on our T-Harp, but we were able to win 7 straight after losing the pitch.
Thanks to the virtual method and its many variations.
It's called the virtual system.
That's fine.
It's still good.
Yeah, we're happy that it's getting some play.
That was the idea.
We won't see it getting any play by the CT side of Aurora.
I was scrubbing through their games.
They rarely even bother to clean T stairs.
And we're calling them the best.
And what does this say about the bird shell system?
Look, it's a pug system.
It's not for professional use.
Yeah, we made that very clear at the time.
OK, OK.
It's not for top tier play, but it's a good little system
for you and your friends at home to have some fun on the map.
Also, Aurora is kind of master of the whole
contain them in mid kind of a situation.
Exactly, right?
They play very sight centric as, oh, they're pushing B on the timing.
No flash, not necessary.
Oh, there is a flash.
Oh my goodness.
Okay then.
You learn before it.
Got the info.
Actually, there's a good amount of damage here as well.
Tara is hungry for it.
Really?
There's middle for it.
Spring into life.
Hey, split.
Oh, a jury.
Oh, hell yeah.
It's going out from the Turkish barber here.
We've got a soul fly in Wokse taking fries between them
and Matus left alone clicking his little glock.
Chad, that is a massive pistol round to win.
CT, Saturn, Ubers, that convinced me of no bomb plant. That is huge. Yeah, right now am I wrong?
I think we might see a G2 eco made a much as be major cutting down the first two people like they were nothing
That's what you love to see you're doing game. They did. Oh, yeah
When he gives you that kind of a performance you get out of your seat
You can't be losing a round of magic gives you that double. I do like the
Barber as well by that was nice. That was good. That's your best work all day
Maybe all year
That's good boys if it is an eco
I'll let you know that the campaign is over town of the year has hit the Twittersphere really
Oh, you get called it really early. Oh, well as the rage bait started. Well, I don't know if it's rage
But we'll get into it. It is a full eco. Okay, everybody. So this is where we have permission to go literally off the rails
This is a
Eto Vinito, okay, that's the Twitter account. I'll get in the mail, but this isn't from the mouth of this from Twitter
Oh, oh, they're talking about the broadcast in turkey show translate it
Okay, it's a broadcast HGTV Awards jokes are popping up right now
Sponge is doing Aurora glazing in the talent award category to get support from Turkish
Well accurate so far
It's all in jest it seems like the support banks is getting has been noticed now
I didn't know that he also he had Brazil China and Turkey. I didn't know that
Oh, it's juji. It's juji. Honestly, it's fully juji. There's a lot of replies coming in
They're really getting stuck into this right now. It's one of them is justice here. He ignores aurora. We ignore him, too
Oh my god, why does people take it so far? Wait, wait, wait, wait. You ready for this one?
Yep, I'm ready. I want to use physical violence on sponge
So we're making waves out there. We're making waves. So this is truly a political campaign now
Make your waves out there, guys.
People are noticing and making waves.
Don't worry, this is just a banked spot for him.
Ah! Ha!
My God.
Is there anything left to be said about round number two?
As Chad referenced, it is a full eco.
So I'm not expecting much, but maybe I'll kill.
They'll find out that it's probably at the top end.
There's an eagle remaining for heavy god,
and there's a 2-0 flying star for Aurora.
Four players survive.
Okay, so first, Gani.
Some of the details, because G2 have played this a couple of times,
G2 have played this couple of times as previously mentioned. They do spawn-based
E-box smokes, right? And these are traditionally the deeper E-box smoke.
So as you're parling up through canal, if the CT wants to, they have to fight ahead of the smoke,
which seems quite risky, right? You come into the gray screen and because they're doing it in star with the...
They haven't done it in star, but when they do do it in star, it allows the parving, right, with this window molly.
Well, that's pretty nice.
They did. That's very rare. They don't do this a lot.
to fighting action in the water it's working it's working very nicely so far
and we're cardia good double opener out of there yeah just get back to safety and
actually throw away your weapon get a better opportunity for your other
teammates with higher health we're cardi gonna play with an mp7 and g2 put in a
position with only three players here I thought I'd give that enough it
lads I don't like the fact that saying answer the bomb side but each to their
own I think it's falling back like this perfect okay this all good it was a
bit of a risk, but it's a cool way to go get a gun. You want to get that a-
I guess that is a good point. I didn't consider that. I mean, it's a high-risk maneuver.
I'll tell you what, Henry, I wouldn't have done it. I wouldn't have finished the round with the MP9.
That's lovely, though. They've done so well here. You can see why they considered one of the best.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Great call. And as Chad mentioned, he went back and watched the demos. They'd
rarely even do that sort of maneuver to drop it in, and this sort of round where you
have the MP7 available, and he needed something to kick things off and get you in the right
position. That's a really great call.
It's a nice addition to maybe like you can found maybe the expectations that
G2 had because obviously they would have noticed something very similar probably not expecting to have too many too many aggressive fights
I'll have to worry about but on the seven overloser
Okay, can we picture and picture the PC Chad's gonna be sitting at that's all that's what we're gonna ask for
He wants it right now
Chad like as in now now
Okay, finish the round
Okay, yeah, we're working on it
All right
He's got in the meantime. What's checking to cook it over there? He wants to show maybe the I bet it's the instant smokes towards
That's probably yeah, yeah, we can bring it up. Let's go have a go and bring up Chad screen as soon as I was please
I'm so glad that he got a chance there, but we really didn't do that
Justice on the build up because we did not see
Yeah!
Woo!
One through five from E-Box.
Just catch the same guy!
Oh my god.
It's never been seen before.
That's a valiant effort.
Who was the last player there?
Soulfly.
Soulfly, dude.
Soulfly.
I imagine you give that round up.
Yeah.
Alright Chad, we can bring it up if you want.
That was kind of...
Oh, I don't know if we...
Hold on, Chad.
Something crazy happened.
Okay.
Yeah, he's out, Chad.
We've caught it all.
We like to keep production on their toes here at ESL.
Have you got a keep in there?
No one saw that coming. He missed a 1v5 moment.
They didn't get converted?
He didn't win either.
No, unfortunately it was so high we couldn't really throw to you.
Look, I didn't want it while the round was live.
I even said when Heavy got the eyes of a photo chat and then that happened.
And I killed the moment.
That's alright.
Well, just for the record, in 33 gun rounds
Yeah for Aurora on this map in the five times played this year on the CT side
They've only thrown the two-stairs smoke seven times
That's a nice little piece of information. That's a low ratio
Woxic it was perfect to got him started in the right way completely wrecked you too and now they're off to the races
This is a dangerous round. I know it looks like it's a huge advantage for Aurora
But you got master with that other smoke on Hunter as well
Yeah, and also just you don't want to lose place if you're really heavy guys just inflicted so much damage on you in the last round
You can't get aggressive. You're gonna pick off. Well, they are getting somewhat aggressive around the corner walks. I can't be patient
He's not gonna hit a shot though
Let's give a little bit of space here for G2 moving up towards the storage over the shot
It's gonna be Matt's taking that right then we see Aurora pull it back. All right
It's the only thing G2 could have done to try and win that round is get aggressive somewhere made the right play just really good
positions from Aurora to defend against it
Whoo, there's four zero style on the CT side of a do this though. It's a deficit
I understand that there was some damage done in these rounds, but you went
All right walks into major picking up the double off
Let's get early to see it. Yeah, just come on swing it early on G2 Conan early time out as well
Was a nice try
Allium try one of the tries of all time
Magia will go E-Box, just hold that line.
Woxic enables him to go towards A, middle, anywhere he wants ready.
Guys, these lights normally on?
They usually are a little dimmer, I think.
Yeah, can we get the lights down?
Please.
Please?
Yeah.
Good point.
Always be polite.
Oh, maybe it hasn't happened, so maybe it'd be rude, actually.
Maybe a chat-house.
Can we please have the lights off?
Thank you, thank you, it was a chat ass to hear right now.
All right, some parts of the insulin.
That's the guy we got here.
It is here.
And we know he doesn't miss smokes.
Oh, now you said it.
Oh, I got so much confidence right through the second hole there.
It's a hole in one.
Oh, he's missed this smoke.
Well, it still works, but it's not where it usually lands a little bit further up.
Yeah, on the flat part.
Either way, it's not the job effective enough. I think we round up and give it to him. All right. We're giving it to him
That's the some pious variation of the smoke. I
Love this room is a Taurus. They're just hanging on the bank. He's hung around this long
Major's up at the B bombsite peaking is giving up the angle now
Woxic helping covers on Taurus towards middle to make sure he can't get out going mid control here
Yeah, he's gonna get some action. Molotov looks like it's heading his way as well
Well, maybe they're going to wish they threw the balls off.
And they get poppy with some flashes here towards Woxig.
It's going to be effective as Antares is hanging out here and he does have an exit path
to drop down into the water and get out of harm's way.
Now Woxig!
Oh, you're not going to be a fan of that whatsoever as you've lost your life.
You've lost the advantage.
And as Antares is on the run around, he's finally right back at the temple.
He's been smoked this time.
He could have held a better...
Oh, he smoked his teammate off.
I think he was hoping to dribble one out.
He's completely smoked off Wakadia.
I think he was trying to pull it out.
Just caught up in the middle.
In the mid-air. Damn.
Yeah, that's rough.
35 seconds.
That's all the time you've got left here, G2.
That's a good point.
They actually be scrambling even now.
They ran us so late the other day as well, right?
Oh, look at this risk.
Oh, you don't like that.
That's a good thing.
That's all fly.
You've got to go huge.
All right, all fly.
This is your moment.
They just got all pulled to A as well.
Time.
Correct.
That's around.
Just to show how...
Real good opportunity there for five in a row. Thank you gave that one away. Yeah works
Think walks a good magic both made like some positioning section the other VP now round both of them away out in the open with no
I didn't like walks exposition any of wrangled it done even a flashing isn't it open. Yeah, especially because it's entire is it dropped away
Yeah, at that moment. It's like give it up. Yeah, can't find a middle mate. That's true
Historically Henry's the first person to ever say I think I did say that
I did I did coin the compound around sick was potentially expecting a smoke and that way you can drop back into it
If he's in that position, maybe it just feels like as soon as you miss that opening shot and Zantara's peaks
I get you want to hang around to help it, but as soon as he's dipped you're on your own and you're now
Liable it all happens very quickly, right? So
Look, this is the first east side round for G2
Money is a little bit of a problem. So these two saves
Zintara's can drop one, Wakadia can get the ult back in the hands of Woxy.
I mean they're buying it, it's just a question of what's a bummer about that is, that's the
round they switched into the double op and they lost both of them.
Yeah.
How expensive.
Well, they picked one up so they lost one of the two but yes.
Did they get it at the end?
Yeah, Wakadia picked it up at the end there.
So he's dropped that to Woxy.
Woxy had enough to drop and they have a full gunny.
Nice.
So everything's okay.
We're cooking.
Oh, there's a nice look at the double-op setup, not necessarily the most success, but it was that you boost over this
Have you got as well remember when he's playing position yesterday Henry though nading right on his dome
They were just like they had some perfect ones lined up there
Yeah, he's one of those tough spots that I think behind the basket. Yeah, every time you think about 40 damage
It's copping the nades. She's not doing anything fancy. This is so direct right at the a bomb
So they're gonna come right through the smoke. Tarzan's here to help
It's a nice smoke from Lucatia, he's looked up well here.
Going into it as well. Using it as cover.
Sometimes you can pull attention, Lucatia becomes the secret piece around the back.
Oh, he's lost on Taris though. So Lucatia's got to go huge, his teammates are dying, so it has to be Lucatia or nothing.
And he gets a frag, but he gets flamethrower.
So Pius is playing around the back side, walks, he's just got a single kill.
Now Swordfly suddenly thrusts himself into a 1v1, and it's doable, he's got plenty of time.
Plenty of time.
No, I like it.
Around the world?
It's gonna be over a cook, but maybe it's gonna be perfectly cooked.
We'll find out.
Okay.
I like this. Let him play.
Exactly.
And he has to plant.
He could also get the bomb and rotate away.
You know, it's an AWPer as well.
You know, it's gonna be tough for him to be a little bit wieldy with the weapon.
Clear out angles.
He's gonna take a little bit more time.
Some pious though.
One of the masters in the 1v1.
Is he in for the bomb?
30 seconds some pious.
You're backing away.
That's all good. He's got time.
The question becomes with Soulfly.
Where do you position yourself to be able to hear and gather information?
So far away from any noise cues.
I mean, if he doesn't see anything here, did he just book it?
Yeah, yeah, this is the peak in with 15 seconds.
Where he's like, oh, nobody's home.
OK, I should probably get going.
They gave 47 salvage and picked up.
Now he's on his horse over the eight bombs.
I got to be flanking.
No, he's not. Difficult clutch now.
Pick up a smoke along the way.
Yeah, it's got full utility.
It just depends on how some pious plays this, right?
If some pious lets him into the side, the smoke goes on the bomb.
Sampias has got one chance, one opportunity, everything he's got.
So, Sophlai Sasao where exactly Sampias is going to be playing.
See, taking the head to head with the orb doesn't feel like the best of the move.
Smokers down and that makes the orb really difficult.
That makes the orb a tough weapon for the job here.
Sampias pulls out the knife instead and double stab right to the back of Sophlai.
That was very coolly done by Sampias in the clutch.
See, that's a key term you've just used at Dinka, coolly done.
Can you imagine how your cortisol is spiking in that moment when you're like, it's a 1v1, I have an orb.
The thing that you're the most mad about is, oh, he still has a smoke.
Of course he has a smoke.
Yeah, you hear that smoke dribble on. You're like, damn it, that sucks.
10th round, but an important moment there for G2. Like I said, Wakadia played that really well.
You can get that smoke down and get a couple of frags out of it, but it comes down to the 1v1 as mentioned.
Sampias, the master of those sort of situations has led us to pretty much a full eco for Aurora.
Bacardi will have the hero m4. He's down the water right now looking to get stuck in smoke down towards T steps of Molotov
We'll have to reconsider his position
Drive by through the smoke yikes as Bacardi and now there's no utility to flash him in towards B main
It just has to hold up and probably already considering saving the rifle
Well, I mean with the five on four though, like you're gonna have to make a play if you're Aurora being a man down
There's no place you can make no you till that's a problem. I think yeah
Maybe maybe gamble stack gamble stack or get those pistols together and swing B
They're gonna crunch through the hole and no
Okay, well hoping something comes their way at the moment. He just defect the rifle at this point
Ticks the Molotov as well brought down to 43. Have you got to get space on a yep?
He should be able to get this kill. Yeah, good work. That's the rifle
I was like, that's the MP7 as well. G2 moving in 45 seconds, just Santora's hanging around
here behind the obelisk.
Great stretch around from G2 to bring this back.
Yeah. I'm interested to see what happens with the buy into the next considering the hero
of the fall. I get the logic, right? Because that last round came down to the 1v1, you
want to make sure you financially keep G2 limited as well.
Yeah.
But the fact you've gotten almost nothing out of this.
It's a little bit of damage so far.
Okay, there's something, there's a kill.
One frag should be taking down the question here after,
but then he actually got another one.
So, don't wait too much for that P250, finally some pies.
Always had money for a P250.
Jason took coin that one, he did.
I did coin that one, that one.
No one can argue with us.
I'll give you that.
That's fair enough, thank you.
That's all I wanted, I just wanted one thing.
That's fine.
Spray transfer, what's that?
I've got a whole suitcase for them.
It's like Jason needs magic cards.
All of them.
All the cards.
Wow, I got some more today, Jason.
I know you did.
Did you get any more success?
No.
Chad, what happened?
Why is everyone playing Goal for Magic the Gap right now?
I don't know.
We've been left behind.
You mean Hugo, the only three who aren't tainted by any of this nonsense.
Hugo doesn't really like many things, though.
Yeah, and that's the same as me and Henry, too.
Well, Henry likes things.
Yeah, but few few things we limited to about five will have five things. Yeah, Hugo has running
He has reading his Counter-Strike Daisy skiing. That's the thing. He loves it. That's what's good
Yeah, the slopes of the Byron Manor are quite impressive
Russian I go skiing on Wednesday. Oh, yeah. Yep
It's true. Yeah, why are you going skiing? There's about three hours away
So we're gonna drive three hours
Two hours after we're going to do while we're skiing on the slope see what come with us and do the podcast
I'd be so down to do that. That'd be a kind of a technical feat, but we might be leaving at 5 a.m
I think Aurora have gone back to the regular game plan guys
You know how I said they don't smoke tea stairs a lot, which means they probably don't play for me a lot
Now they're just playing science. This is how Aurora love to play near this
It's kind of it's cool to see them open it up there and give a new look and get the advantage out of it
Well, it wasn't that that hurt him right it was the double ops true just racked the money to be fair to be fair Jason
See what can be done here what many marks look at some mid-present say it's gonna be mobs flashed in lots of down smoke towards window
Jumping up seen if anyone's home nice little maneuver there
Got a hunter spectres that span
Same story towards a man from heavy God
CT is running out of util across the board, it is what, flash is remaining.
He may have pushed at the moment for space.
This is how you need some space, you need something, you cannot hold these bombs such right now.
Oooh, that's a big win, if you could get it, Hunter goes down, Zontara is coming out on top,
and over to the A bomb so we go, that's going to speed up the timeline.
Yeah, Zontara is, can't really rush in, he's a hero right now with 5 HP.
So, you got to hold Bacardi, I can get something down here.
He's got Woxic out with him on the brick.
Oh my God, Woxic, back turn.
And not the best hold here whatsoever from Aurora. I'll be one again.
Screampias. Again, Sulfly.
Okay, here we go. This time...
Is he gonna knife him again?
I hope he does.
Maybe Sulfly would get a knife?
Sulfly wins this one.
Alright, we go 1-1 and Sulfly is through good in the clutch, dude.
That's creamy.
He's actually one of my goats.
Yeah, he's playing this one well.
He can't go anywhere.
He's absolutely over.
RECORD NO!
That's rough.
You know what? Yeah, that is a one-to-one now on this best of three.
We're gonna get one more clutch between Sawfly and some pass at some point throughout this map.
Need to complete the series. We need to.
Oh, it's such a massive round.
Three on his face after that one.
Not rising to the top there whatsoever.
That's a huge round to win.
Money's still pretty busted for Aurora, even after winning that one, but still.
Five CT rounds. Five CT rounds is huge.
You take the round all day long.
Oh, he played it so well. That was like almost perfection.
But not.
Just that's the one between perfection.
He had the read.
It was perfectly played, just very in luck.
Deeper angle than he expected, yeah.
Pretty nice try.
But at my cost to the man.
Have you guys hit pretty hard though, isn't it?
That double there as well.
It's going to have been a strong position.
Magylite's the way that one feels.
If they can win this round, they probably end up winning the half.
G2 that is.
But that's a massive if.
The money will be absolutely destroyed and the loss of money will be gone.
When we, I think it was this crew.
We were casting G2 playing at Nubus.
Some of the fast arousal G2 are running like moles running through the mid yes getting up to the camera
You can you do that against the team like a roar? Is that just off limits? You can but yesterday when I watched the play against spirit
They were playing so slow
I think they were just scared of the output of don't and they were really trying to control the tempo of the game
So they weren't just getting into the jewels early. It's interesting to see them trying to do the same thing right now
they are
So position themselves for a potential beast but miss Molly Highlander there by brass
Mabs is getting this mid space, but yeah, this is the bombs down above T stairs still
There's no clear indication of the round finishes yet
It's defense at the B bombsite looks tenuous though
As soon as they hear these nades are gonna have to shift way too exposed over towards the box and backing into the bomb site itself
Flash going off from that matter outside of P main
Yeah, but this is where you really start to feel restricted as a B defender
You know they have control of the box
You know they're gonna be outside P main you start to feel real limited in how you can set up inside this bomb site
Miss Molotov is actually huge, allows them to play in the platform corner.
Have you got bringing the bomb over late? And this will be a commitment to the B site.
It's been a theme in this tournament for G2, Miss Util.
Should be an opening frag though, Hunter makes up for it, finds the headshot of Magyar,
the ingame with his clash.
Nobody's moving, nobody's moving, it's all soul flies.
Antares coming now, but he's gonna be stuck behind this smoke.
You need to hold him at base, soul fly if you can.
Yeah, it's a good work on that first kill, but then an instant replacement,
Antares immediately appears in the same spot, but only a single frag.
and yeah that's a safe for sure
back away
what's the loss by the shat?
can you hit that?
I think it's second stage
1900 yeah
yep yep yep yep
yep
not a good spot to find yourself
that's what I said I think that's my costume
the half but
well
you have to be forced around this wall
Chad you've lost Brazil, Turkey, China
but I have to, I do have an ASAP bus
it leaves from here
okay who could we get?
I do have India possibly
okay
That is the highest population in the world.
It's well connected.
I think it's more now. I think it's close.
Maybe we're getting pretty high. It's at 1.5 nearly.
They do keep having more Indians.
Can you sign you off the next Indian event chat?
Well, look, what do you want to go?
Do you know what I need to do for the votes, Dinka?
Well, yesterday, Lydia Frisk, who makes the maps for made Overpass
and Inferno for CS2, one of the designers at Valve,
made an Indian counter strike map and she tagged me in a tweet and it's Dinko
diagnostics so you know we could get the Indian side on our side okay you know
maybe just maybe that will be enough to overturn the votes I'll do what it takes
You let me know I'm happy to pay
I
Against the rules every ever gets anything is for the donors. It's not against the rule horrible political landscape
Yeah, and it's not against the rules at all there enough. I'm you know, we're gonna start playing some videos in different languages
Look, I do have a
There's a fan in China called Haley. She does translations of a lot of podcasts and content into
Mandarin and she's told me that we'll start working on the campaign for China
okay so we've had a chat about that so look I'll take whatever I can get at
this point guys okay you have to accelerate a you have to try and beat
him on rotation surely you can't be losing an eco boys you definitely can't
You shouldn't be losing it, you know, boys.
Here comes the AWP.
That's the kill, that's the kill. He wins the round, he gets that.
You get back to B.
Bombs still in main, there's time to fall back if they just want to split-temp or go back through canal.
Soulfly starting to push up at the B bombsite as well.
Hit is under way, they missed the timing to get into cover, but the decal is going to deliver.
Zontar is holding strong, and that's a lovely from Mattis.
Keeping the bombsite in control of G2, the flank is gone and the danger is gone.
We're tired and the lead is gone. It's not yeah tired. It's it's crazy
But it's more g2 salvaging the half and it is aurora lose the half
I think here's here's the thing if I reckon sprinkle one more on top. I'll help them in talent. It's slightly tip Jason
Okay, it's slightly tipped
I wanted to check that
I think if I call the stats favorite cts. I think where you like this is it right you should do it for
It wasn't even played.
It was played in Cluj.
No, but I was going to say, if you did it just for 2026, that would include Bounty.
So you would need to have Krakow, Cluj, and…
Stage one.
…of EPL, yes, as you're measuring sticks.
That's a lot of things.
I can do it.
I'll work it out.
Yeah, just curious if it's shipped in.
I can't imagine…
No, no, I'll look it right out.
Can't imagine anything too crazy, not any significant…
Well, I guess that's pretty significant.
Well, I was looking into Krakow had CT stats were favorite, but I think that's just it was an injury to reintroduce to the pool
And this is another factor, right? How long of a map being played do we see the meta of the new change figured out, right?
That's another conversation time ten events. Maybe the kind of like that's not really gonna be played at the first three or four
Yeah, it's at least the first six months. Yeah
All right, oh the shame trains got there
We're gonna get a timing here boys lights inferno this might be a little bit of a
B-pop B-pop so fly my friend do not get caught with your knife out yep you got
called with your knife out surprise covered of him Zanta though he's got
himself to Santa Claus himself and he's always gonna be taken down by some
pie so magic into the connectors found himself a frag leaving some pies in
the clutch has been a bit of a clutch man himself recently he can pull off
another one this one's this one's out of his reach this one's got no bomb just
seven the bomb yeah that's the problem get the all power there
run in now have a go now now you want to get some kills you know the last round
is just okay yeah but look at the money like one or ten last round next and
he's already got enough final next round well one or two kills from some pious
and it's like you take some money away take some resources away that's a kit
that's missing and utility that's missing I the open in the final round as
You can find a couple of kills that's massive grenades that are missing. I don't want to have another heavy-gold situation
So we'll wait I better do the numbers so we'll say looked in on this. Yeah, that's true
For our audio only listeners 35 seconds left on the clock some pies outside B main smoke
Who's just faded in front of his face to flank coming in through wikari at slowly
Maga and walks it holding the bomb which is down towards Jail some pies with 25 seconds starts to make a play leering in
Clearing his corners has to get past the rifle first walks it close up pillar
to be six to five in favor of the Turkish side audio. Okay, so over stage one of
EPL, stage one of Krakow and Krakow is its entirety, as well as PGL Cluj and
Ubers has only been played a small 23 times. It's the least played map of those
four portions combined and it's off the pace significantly keeping in mind
Dust2 over those same amount of events have been played 72 times. Okay, so it's
very underplayed. However, if we're looking at distribution of CT and T
round wins it's 53.7% on the t-side and 46.3% on the t-side a lot closer than it's expected
the still technical t-side but as we said 75 right yeah yeah yeah that's from 566
well that's exactly what the lore are hunting for right now 75 would be a
deli we'll see whether they can convert it they've got a couple of ak47s within the ranks here
final round of this first half is going to be mouth once again working towards middle
flashing in is Mattis. They've got that control, but there's always be a player
towards camera walks this time, not with the AWP with the M4 in hand. The rotation's
coming through from Zantaris towards the temple. That's exactly where they want to go.
This is a key duel right now. One of the best wifers on the server, only good for
one. How about they, though? Don't seem too interested in following up on the
aggression towards temple. Lucario sliding back just in case CT is going to be
compromised, but that leaves Woxic playing behind the smoke on the fade.
And the bomb site's open for business
Yeah, it's warming all over the A site with cardiac and they give it a bit a little bit of a look and he's coming through the storage now
How he's playing already?
He has to wait in this a main players have to take contact then he can spring in action
But now they're aware. Oh, maybe they're not aware that he's not on the timing
I don't think they caught him. He didn't get ticked by the Molotov
I think these agro just taken from a teammate and he's go for the smoke. I think that's the only way
Those teammates are dead. And so, Wakadia is now stuck at heaven.
Hiding in the spot, there's the reveal and...
...and we're trying to follow up, but there it is, a tied half again.
6-6, a strong start from Aurora. G2 fight their way back in.
But will they be able to force the third map?
I
one drop behind you i think
maybe drop behind
Alright, yeah. Nice.
I think.
You're being hot-taced.
No!
Fuck that man!
CROAAAARGH!
I can't...
He's the only one guy who survived.
The playoffs is looking likely to be Aurora already mapped to the good and looking in a
prime position to take Anubis as well.
They'll switch over to the T side, the more favored side as we worked out and we'll see
where they can find the pistol here, Jason.
Yeah, it's going to be a nice V hit, there we go, carry utility, but they're past it.
Good hold from some pious and mad as the USP's going to town, doing work, but traded
right back.
Yeah, Turkey's trades coming in no problem.
Zantara is with two, Madge also following up and now we've got Hunter and Heavy
God with a very difficult retake ahead of them
All planted default smoke is still up allowing the fall back here from Aurora into strong post plant positions
That's not Thomas is hungry for hello. Unfortunately. He will be famine have a smoke for the bomb. They've got no kid though
Still tense. I can refuse. I don't hate it
Well, they've both gone as Chester Knetcher and in the meantime
I just moved up a little bit a bit dicey
Actually good more damage done towards connect to a hunter. It's gone leaving heavy guard not in the smoke
So he's moved out of it. It can't as he's waiting now with a knife out as well
Anything could be happening in that smoke. That's true
It did look weird with the centaura is over staying in that position. Yes, everyone else bailing
Yes, you're either all in or you're all out. Are you setting up some time a different crossfire?
But regardless this is essentially a 5v3 after those first two kills coming immediate trades, right?
So it's all rapid within a skirmish there, but great trade work simple execute and easy stuff there for Aurora to pick up both pistols
On their home turf well done. Yeah in the driver's seat feel like they're in command of the map at the moment
But let's see how this round plays out. It's a full investment. It is a full investment here
They are very good especially mouths on the Desert Eagles
Have you got an MP7? Can be deadly?
But just let's go through some of the CT players here for a second, Rush.
Let's look at A main, so there's a smoke already down, and he has another one, right?
So they're going to make sure that they've really used their U2 to block main.
I'll just make control. Has been warded away for a moment.
So they're playing strong mid. They're blocking A main, they're blocking B main.
So can you go to Malbs on B for us? Yeah, thank you, sorry.
He also has a smoke, so you've already stepped ahead, Rush. Thanks, mate.
right so yeah plan to block on the extremities and then the cluster of the
seats is over towards middle so that's the idea from G2 just down to one smoke
remaining though not gonna be able to bleed out the whole clock just hoping
that Aurora might make a move all the smokes are up but they've stayed very
patient spotted mobs dodgers all the bullets but he's still alone at this
B bomb site and that's where Aurora is lining up.
Oh, okay, damage done.
You get one pick and you're dead.
Alright, well, good try. Good jewel. One of the jewels of all time.
And they're not bad. Hunter also getting a chance for this 5-7, for then Zantara's farm zoom.
Well G2's chances in general are bringing this series back to life diminishing here.
That was a very important round, Eureko next, I suppose.
Have you got getting a kill in the MP7?
They can survive.
The Deagle is a slither of hope going forward.
Yeah, they got like the minimum number of toys to play with.
Yeah.
That's if they survive.
How many toys do you own, Henry?
What kind of toys are you referring to?
Let your imagination run wild.
The number.
Depends on what drawer you're opening, I suppose.
If I still had like an actual home, I would have like lots of knickknacks and toys and
stuff, but we're out of a multi-shit old apartment we've got.
I got knickknacks in mind, every time I'm renting accommodation, I just can't be asked
to make it a house.
I'm like a show home.
Every time I went into, we had the exact same layout apartment.
When I would go into your apartment, I'd be like, wow, this actually feels like
a home.
I'm like a show home.
They live in kind of like a Monk lifestyle over there.
Um, I wouldn't say Monks have the same lifestyle as me, necessarily.
Have you seen the movie Fight Club?
I have seen the movie Fight Club.
That's how it's kind of living like that.
He's got a podcast you do in the living room.
Have like a full-time podcast you do in the living room.
That's all I have, really.
You know the home that they buy after his house burns down?
Yeah, exactly.
That's kind of what happens.
Oh yeah, no, true.
Okay, I thought you meant the IKEA.
No, no, no.
That's not yours at all.
Okay.
You're making soap.
not hanging around would you make it with your bathwater Henry that's probably the
way forward isn't it that's all the trend these days oh goodness that's not bad we did say there
was a slip up and they're going into a stack on a there's a chance there's definitely a chance more
than a chance so have you got to the mp7 it's got a deliverer the joker on the corner is not
great well soulfly knows he's about to get pushed they're getting wrapped around here
the grenade makes things oh no that's the ak they got the ak and the bomb that's the bomb
There's also a flank coming in from storage as well.
We've got Malph now, right?
Oh!
We've got them from Hunter using their AK to create effect.
30 seconds left.
Satara's brought down.
Damn.
Malph from G2.
All of those toys, Jason.
They come back to haunt them in the end.
Throwing out of their pram, though, on the Aurora side,
isn't it?
Oh, that's a massive round.
You don't think that the death of Madge
is going to cost you too much over towards Evox?
But it's crazy, right?
Because they're all setting up for an A-play.
It also does.
You see the pressure it puts on Soulfly,
not knowing if they're flanking behind them.
Yeah.
He feels like he's got to move forward like he's got to get out of this scenario
He's gonna be wrapped apart at any moment. You know, we come into this game
We know that Aurora have a favorite so we go to the new bus and they win the first map
But rounds like that can really start to break Aurora down
Yeah, we did have a conversation with a till all Madison's out
They would have heard the jumps right so they know it is they're gonna flash for him
Should be a freebie because we're cardio to swing with that nine
I had the flash of the ready, but what are they waiting for here?
Maybe they don't believe he actually powered the cross.
I don't think they know he's out.
No one's considering it.
He jumps, he jumps would have been made.
So I don't know they, I don't think they know he crossed.
No one's checking out.
Oh, they know they get the warning system and they do well.
Nice.
He keeps them two different elevations.
That's a rifle for the pistols.
Not bad at all.
And with all the user as well, pick your poisonous.
I think you just XQB.
Yeah, but you got to give it some time.
gotta let it breathe because look at the rotation G2's basically said all right
we saw three outside to be bomb site let's shift over here but they're just
gonna come right at the stack okay yeah just going short into it which really
gotta hope you have a great entry here awesome prices smoke out at least held
back yet oh yeah the orb is struggling at this one he's like oh no I can't go
there I can't go there I'm just gonna wait and so the pressure is now on
hunter defy oh you just shoot the through the smoke okay some bias
nice dropping Woxic.
How did that happen?
Yeah, I have to see on the replan.
I guess, but moving into the side,
bomb plant comes through here for Aurora.
It comes down to this retake.
How many more you two?
G2 got a kit available on two players.
Malibu's a heavy guard.
Oh, what a flash!
Into Akadia runs over the top of some bias.
And now after G2,
he's just trying to back away,
starting to slip away,
now holding onto these weapons.
And Aurora returned the previous round lost.
Shout out to Soulfly.
That's an unreal flashbang. It's considering all they have exactly that's all they have left is that one flash my god
They get value out of it tons up. Yes holding on to the AK gonna need to hold on to all the rifles they can't hear money and
Time running very thin. I'm so intrigued is to just some prices take a shot through the smoke
I think he did is it no problem?
They didn't know an HG off could maybe jump spot like on the little both of his teammates both of his teammates were in
We're in evoke so there was no need to break that he just took a shot on the fallback
Wow, what a round, what a rebuttal.
Fortunately, it doesn't ruin their bank bounce because they won the Eco, so they can't buy
again.
We'll start it here.
Okay, here we go.
Here it is.
Straight up for the smoker.
I'm fair enough.
This line is, yeah, you can see, you line it up with a pillar on the main bomb site,
like, you know, generally where you're aiming.
You've also got the skyline over the top, right, where you can see the top of the
arch for the entry.
So, you have some guide rails, it's like bumper bowling, battleships.
chips. That's the time out. It feels about the right time to do it. On the CT side, you've
got plenty of money as Chad mentioned. We've got a couple of AKs as well. So definitely
something to mention here. We'll bring it back to that tilt conversation, bro. I've
already changed. You can see some players there. So frustrating. You just want a big
opportunity there if you're G2 on pace, thoughts. You lose that run and respond. You
see taking the headset off. It's tough when Mattis is so committed like that,
right? That's an all-in position. Whether or not they actually saw him cross, they
They knew he was aggressive because of the jump spots.
They might have thought a flash would like trigger a peek from B main or something as well.
Oh, that's a lovely one.
Oh, Hunter.
Can I want that one back?
Walk through the window.
To actually grab in the open and Frank here for Aurora makes life a lot easier.
It's so hard to play CT side 4v5 for a minute and a half.
Yeah.
So how to play 5v5?
Well, luckily we only had to play it for a short amount of time because Stumpiess has got that tread right back.
I feel like you still go into the AWP though. The fact that you've just identified that it's there, a couple of key pieces of utility.
Problem is he's staying on a relatively aggressive line over towards fountain.
This is better now for the execute, right? If he transitions back side-side, bricks, camera, heaven, it's going to be much easier to deal with, but have you got to rotate it over to join him?
Malus has pushed out B main to alleviate a bit of the pressure.
Trading some Util. Smoke over to Marjom.
Essentially a third man matters here now to help so she's taking a long time to come together hasn't it
Yeah, but last round it didn't matter that it was a telegraph text you maybe this time it won't either
It's coming in some pie slashed it, you know get a coffee angle. We get right back to it
Some pie system impact here some pie is stepping up here for cheat to
Fighting his way right back into the realm. We've got a real back-and-forth developing here in the second half
That's an issue now for Aurora. They're gonna have to have a conference. I imagine a timeout
and coming into this next round so they can just talk about the money. Locke's gonna try
and save the AWP if he gets away with it. It's nice, but no bonus money means he can't
drop anything. Yeah, 1,400. Yeah, losing bonus is nothing. It is wild to think you do get
that opening pick so early. Then you establish where the AWP is. Then you essentially just
hang around and execute and you get nothing. So two rounds in a row, they get these clean
entries but this time the execute is
dissuaded so good stuff from some pious
it's odd it's odd to me that walks it
already had the flashes lined up when
that kill comes in I thought you would
trigger it there exactly yeah I finished
the fall back you know put him in a put
some pressure on the opera make him
just give up space and also that like
we have heard this from magic before I
think in one of the roundtables that
was done or an interview where he's
talking about how he doesn't have the
the team to the map control in the same way as what a vitality would, which either means
you don't have the players who have the theoretical understanding of what they need to do or
what they do and they don't take initiative.
Exactly, right?
So there can be a couple of things that play into that.
So maybe that's why he feels he needs to play more pack and execute heavy there.
But two rounds like that in a row, look, when you think about Mirage, their T side,
the first stretch of rounds were A executes and maybe with a little bit of mid-play,
but most of it was just set pieces.
So, okay, we go back and forth, one round game, money.
I wanna say it's on the line, it's already beaten down.
It's gonna be three tech nines of Mac 10
and an AWP that was saved from Wauksick
up against a fully fledged G2.
For a team that loved doing just set pieces and executes,
though, you can make this work.
You can make the tech nines of the Mac 10 work
if they can get some open space,
where are you gonna take them?
Looks like everyone headed towards the A bomb site
for the moment.
Indeed they will.
Not gonna test them all, it's off.
Wauksick looking for a pick.
It's Antares who gives his life away for free, it's just a quick jiggle at the angle in towards
A main.
Heavy God, okay, that is a beautiful pair of headshots there from Heavy God.
Some pious, having a retreat, trying to get back, he's got his teammate out of support
from the back of the door.
Oh, had his teammate at the back of the cake.
Rotation is here quickly for G2, all three players towards camera or bricks.
But there's plenty of time for a roar to bail out, they've got the bomb back
as well.
They're just no way for them to know all three players are here, which would be great.
They would just back off.
Now they might be able to punish this re-aggress.
Look at the health though here for Aurora.
They're not considering this at all.
No, they're not.
You're back to her own.
Mattis is pushed up.
Balm is loose.
And Madra can't win this one V3.
That's the lead for G2 essentially.
Okay.
It's all come crumbling down.
Aurora lost.
The last time they played they lost to Nubis.
Na'Vi back includes the poker was a 13-9 win for Na'Vi.
Opportunity there now for G2 to get the same result.
Someone in Twitch chat just said G2 about to lose in Valorant and CS.
Ooh, wow.
Two for one.
Might not be correct.
No, I just read it.
Yeah.
Who could be about to win?
Exactly.
The one that matters.
So one flash and a smoke on Magi.
Two flashes and a smoke on Magi.
If if Aurora can't really can't like go out and spread and play a default and play map control
They're gonna just become a team that's very easy to read
There's a reason why like the pure execute teams just haven't been around like that one singular style
It's so difficult. I thought it was already the conversation about them there
I was that he sides are a little bit. Yeah, but I think this year. I have to go back in double check
I think this year with the
With the matches they've played that their tea sides
I'd been better than their CTs.
I'd have to double it.
I was looking at some stats up with them this morning,
but that wasn't one of the things that really
stuck out for me.
But okay, GZ8, the lead, they hit the double digits,
10 to nine, Aurora take the eco,
they try and pop in a B, get nothing done,
now they bring out the guns.
Keep your eyes rushed on the whole molly, all right?
Yeah.
Keep your eyes on it.
They might not be throwing it.
When I was looking at it, they do the deep
e-box smoke, but not a lot of hole molly.
Okay, I'll keep an eye on the whole molly.
Keep an eye on the whole molly.
Oh, look at this ho- look.
See no molly in the hole?
No, nothing in there right now.
No hole molly.
They're looking at it though.
They're considering the hole.
Even nine's considering the hole.
Nice shot from Woxic.
Looking for the push in A main.
I was too focused on the hole, sorry.
Glued to the hole.
Sorry enough.
As you should be, Rush.
Oh, the trade's in.
Just did it dunk there, didn't matter.
From yesterday's game, Henry just walking in dry.
But, oh, I'm missing out on thonkness.
We'll get you back Henry.
Henry, can we get Henry's MyCom please production?
Henry!
Oh, hello, hello, how's it going?
Depart from situation, I am back.
Hi, what are they missing?
Eco, the looks of things?
You, you, you saved the WoxyCorp,
they force-walk behind it, they lost,
then they had to save the full Eco.
Again, they found it opening very easily,
but they've given it back.
Yeah, that was about to say that.
There's no, there's no flash this time.
G2 might give it back.
They're lining up to get aggressive.
Oh, they're very friendly.
Oh!
Mattis wins that fight.
Nice pre-fire, double kill for him in the rounds, stay alive now on 10 points of health, some pies, you know he's getting one here.
Can't walk into this.
No, he's getting one.
Always.
Yeah.
They're just getting shoot up as they just get into position. They're losing way too many players on the progress.
He's not in the line.
Who is it?
Oh, Xayah!
That's beautiful though!
Woxic striking into life, suddenly a 2v2 off the back of that, Hunter under pressure.
Can this be a round saved by Woxic?
Limited time, just above 20 seconds, that bomb moves in.
It gets planted on default.
So your memory...
So, Saurfly is out of commission for now.
Oh!
Oh, it reads it!
Hunter Doom knocked over on his ass
and heavy God is up for the clutch.
Well, they've let him out of temple without smoke going down.
But he's definitely up for it being Kerry.
He's got no youth, he'll need two kills.
Let's have a kit.
He's pissed off about losing that 1v5 opportunity.
3b on Woxic, he wants this one, hunting it down,
trying to bet off the shot, getting shot from the jail,
turns back to it, but Saurfly's got the frag
And that is a massive turnaround from Woxic.
Yeah, that setting up, turning it, making that round possible, and then Soulfly.
The clear is shot all of a sudden.
Shot all of a sudden, man. That's crazy.
The double kill in E-box, though, from Woxic.
A triple kill, essentially, right?
This one's fine.
I guess the highest feels he's under so much pressure
that he's going to get pinned to the ground.
Yeah, man, exactly.
So he goes for the peek, but it just feels like
it gives a lot of time for Woxic.
Masterclass from him in that one.
10-10, all tied up.
uh... that case you have or should that's box express for another series
to the one-to-one setup a little movement from walks into like stutter
set like side step away from the angle is actually so sick i think that more than
anything is probably what pulse some bias deeper into that angle
they needed that
but i don't know where i was running out of gas on the other line again so
flies by the same from the server's got a mouse issue didn't look like a
mouse issue well no it at the end of the round the last fight
Well, it's fair enough, yeah, that's a great point, but for Aurora, you know, that's not exactly the most sustainable way to win rounds, but the fact that they were able to pull themselves out of the most crucial point of the game, really.
Here's the thing about it being sustainable, Dinko, it might not matter, right? If you win this round and they don't save any guns, money is in a questionable position for G2, right? You've got nothing really left other than some pious who's yet to buy the nades.
You've only got 1900 loss.
So you get the break at the perfect point of the game.
Exactly.
Well, you'd put a really tough decision on the shoulders of G2 in the next round as you buy a 10-11, do you what do you say, buy a 10-30?
Do you put like a real weird decision into their back pocket?
That's another, this is sidebar, while we have the tech. I'd be interested to see if more games have gone into overtime comparatively, so it has to be percentage based, in MR12 than MR15.
Because players don't like MR12, right? They say there's not enough room to move, you know, it's hard to recover in a stretch, but we do have quite a few games that end up going into OT 16-14.
A lot more than it used to be.
That's it. I would love to know the stats on that, right? Like you have to say a sample size over the course of, you know, let's say if we looked at 2019 and we compare that to 2025.
We've got Sonner backstage. I guess he could go bunch of numbers for it. He's a number guy.
I think the 5.7 being so strong plays a big factor in that as well, like the CTs getting
control of money again on the 5.7s.
There's always a 5.7 round here and there.
Well, there's definitely more rounds with threats in play in MR12 than MR15, but I
also think that's evolution of the economy as well as evolution of the players, right?
Being able to do more with less, there's more saving, there's more...
There's more actual plans as well, we're gonna have fun.
Yeah, you can be a little bit more intelligent about it.
There's always an idea.
There's always something.
All right, well, we've got self-flight back.
The first time, take it down, and we are going to get this one underway for round 21.
21, 21, 21.
What are we working with here?
Waxix got the AWP.
Maldra's got a Mac 10.
Oh, business.
Three players of our helmets, Jason.
Yeah, that's...
So, that makes it extra spicy.
Yeah, we've seen those Mac 10s do some work.
Let's see where Major's going to take us.
Look at that.
Hold, Molly.
Got it this time.
Hole is on fire.
Spicy.
I like the dramatic music for this really important one as well.
Some fire.
Some boss.
I'm gonna be looking down on Steve.
That's quite a song right there, Steve.
Like that one?
Yeah.
Oh my god.
We'll be both serious next week.
Headed over.
Actually, sometimes that's enough of you actually.
Look at these guys in the back.
Go live and nobody realized someone wasn't at the seat. He was under the desk. Yeah, plug in someone's PC. Okay
So wired mouth schoozer. He is in me. Yeah, I admire that
I had I've been having some mouse issues in a few of my facing games
It's been bugging out a little bit and I was talking to Hugo at last night
It was like where do you ever plugged in?
I saw the front port and it's like that do that. Yeah, the back port
Yeah, that's the thing I did I just thought all ports are made the same want it straight into the motherboard
They're not all ports are made the same. I didn't know. Yeah, there was a there was a problem
My PC was not working like the keyboard wasn't working and I took it out of like a 3.0
Put it into a 2.0 and actually it actually worked because the PC was booting in safe mode and it wasn't good
Okay, I'll have to wait. Hey, what are we what are we doing here? Or you had this two tech issues?
Oh, it's a it's a waxy bike issue. You're gonna freeze yourself. You're gonna freeze yourself
Oh, you just went around you're giving G2 time to them so in a boot camp environment
They can't get frozen. Oh, you definitely can he's contracted to face through me doesn't speak Turkish either
And we're off to the race
I know we're having fun, but this is gonna be a hell of a round. Let me tell you magic
You can get some space that Mac 10 this brown pretty much decides the series for me. That's where I'm at
Okay, all right, so
See the situation
The map this is taken seriously and there's a leg shot to kick things off and Tara's the danger man of a war up
He's down to 16 points of health. Yeah, that's a bummer for him might have to play passively
I'm worried otherwise I want to step into a fight.
Watch it, give me the AWP. I am the AWPer now.
I like it.
Alright, as long.
A little bit of a flash.
Peek out the window. Hunter sees nothing.
He's going to back away.
They're moving in this direction.
He's just missed the timing on that check for info.
Mobs and some pyos at the B bomb site.
Sonny P's got his AWP.
Going to move it to the back of the bomb site now.
Nice save.
Massive damage.
Malv is playing this perfectly with the util so far, locks off the e-box down to some pyres who hasn't missed many shots of the AWP today, perfect angle.
On flash picks and up towards the platform as well.
I feel like you gotta go through the smoke, you just jumped your utility for the execute.
Trying to time the split through dark into the b-bomb site from main.
Some pyres, nice days, perfectly timed, there's the killer's wall.
kill as well. They actually severed off the second player coming in, but the trade still
comes through. Woxic on the hunt down. Woxic is the MVP right now. He is stepping up with
some really important frags. Zantara is also getting one on the AWP, but a 2v2 with 25
seconds left. Bomb still went in to go into B main. And finally taking that risk, get
caught. Salfly has hit the shot.
That's why it's this. Look how low they are.
Yeah.
Salfly crossing in. There's the bomb. That's it. Down.
Oh, we've got a hook to hit!
Suntar is dodging it, and we've never had to see Suntar as in an off-clutch up against the rifle.
Let's see if he's able to pull this off down in connector, such an important round in this game.
Say it, Henry, this one was yours too, not known to be at Alpert.
That is mine, that is mine for sure.
Well, Steve Suntar is going to pull this one off, it comes down to one shot.
This could decide their fate for the playoffs essentially.
and Tarras can find his 1v1.
A single bullet in his direction will take him down.
Tarras is holding.
Tarras has got the angle!
Delivering the gift here to Aurora, an 11th round.
And the decision to get that AWP thrown over to him earlier on has worked out perfectly
because not only does Tarras close to the AWP,
but it's Woxic on the rifle that gets the initial damage done.
It looks so treacherous on the cross-nethersoul fly.
The fact he gets one of the two kills,
Right, he's out for that little cave area.
Yeah. Exactly.
It looks so tough dodging the change.
Yeah, mate. That could have been the undoing.
Oh, these kids giving the freebie as well.
You're so happy with that outcome.
Yeah, very good point.
The fact that we had Bogdan's lore there saved the day.
Oh, nice. Another win for Bogdan, really.
Let's look at the decision for GT.
We've mentioned before that Rato is going to put their money in.
Yeah, exactly. That's why I said this is the series.
Because you're now entering with SMGs.
Definitely need a tactical timeout.
It's like you're clutching the straws already and it feels like you're not gonna be able to convert this it's a winnable buy though
We can pull this one off. Let's see where they're in some pious
The the aggression in towards the hole from Hunter a few rounds hasn't really gotten anything done some pious is gonna be on the AWP
Tough tough round for G2
fighting back on an abyss
11 to 10
They're not going for aggression on the city side double nades walks. He takes the line
But you're gonna have to go for some aggression at some point right like utility is just gonna run out unless we get the classic Aurora
group up and execute you and you melt down in a choke point true
This is telling right now something mid base. So the reason Russia showing us what cardier is because he's gonna throw up aggression smoke
They miss the smoke. They've missed the smoke indeed
It's just a weird smoking. Yep. Yeah, that's all yep. That's not why that's meant to land
That's not that big of a deal.
Oh, not a great time.
Not a huge round or anything.
It's alright, they still get control.
So, Fly has the bomb falling up Santas.
Flash.
It's gonna be hell of a flash.
Oh, it's all gone wrong, Chad.
And she couldn't have gone worse.
That's the worst possible outcome.
You know, Heavygun has to be here.
Oh, the pre-fire!
Put up your gun.
Major got styled on heading out in that exact position earlier in the half. He came back to it. It wasn't gonna be caught again
I lost bonus shot. I think that's it's not great. It's the third one 24 24
Yeah, whoa, whoa, well did you?
Good try. Good job. Oh
It's just
It's the Woxic
Step up here in a couple of rounds. That's just so impressive. They got them over the line
It's not even a word of the lie. I was so confident in the Aurora tour. I said I'm coming
No joke, you were saying it all day.
Yeah, he was.
In this, as we got the car.
I was arguing with him.
I was debating all day.
No, G2 has been here.
Blood in my lesson.
G2 has been here.
Shad's always right.
Heavy God, some pious.
MP9's and Deagle's to save the day here, that's why we said it might be GG in that
couple of months ago.
Right.
So far, he's delivering quality and quantity.
17 kills, types of the most frags on the team, but he's had some absolutely
critical frags to open up some bomb sites throughout this map.
Now, 1v5, heavy God situation.
Yeah, he won that one as well.
That was rough.
It's going to be a very different game if you check it out.
You can always check it to be fair.
All right, Henry's Law though.
The third of the hardest round of the world.
It really is actually, I think, every time I've called it.
Every time I've called it, it always seems to be transpired.
So let's see what happens.
Lock in.
It's MP9 and a Malb's MD Diggle.
We'll have to be surgical with it.
One more smoke for G2 to deploy in this round.
That's going to be the hands of Malb's over towards the B
bomb site.
He's that solo defender.
once again, and a low buy forced by round G2 has chosen to stack mid and try and block
the extremities to funnel them towards the stack, and at least this time it's working.
Narura is heading in the exact direction G2 want them to be in.
There's the kill from Woxic. Oh, stacking him everywhere.
Oh, close through, push back.
Pius!
They're back.
Hello, now he's got an AWP, and the MagTen and MagTru are running into the A bomb site,
It looks like the 13th round is going to be very difficult to find here for Aurora.
It's a 4x next, isn't it?
Wukati, the bomb is down in middle and you cannot get yourself into the hole on your own.
So, you're dead, mate.
There it is.
All right.
All right, Henry's Law.
Henry's Law. Always Law.
Cole's Law.
Slowing's Law.
Stanner's Law.
Jinx.
Oh!
Whoa!
That's not a shot.
Thank you for the next round.
Seriously?
Nah.
Chug it over the wall for anything.
Oh, that's over.
Woxy can buy one, but...
Just denying them the orb is actually pretty massive.
Yeah.
They come by.
They physically can't not buy it.
Okay, let's see if that move is the winning recipe here for Aurora.
Once a lifeline for G2 at least, some pyre saves him with a double spray down at the MP9, let's have a look at that again.
It all starts it off with a kill, you think that's the GG moment, but no.
The Spaniard had other ideas, and this lovely kill from Heavy God as well. Good patience, good lead.
Takes out the in-game lead up, and keeps him alive for now. One more round we'll do, we're looking for overtime here.
Very well equipped for like an AK-47, but no AWP as referenced, so still enough to have us in poem.
Oh, the flash! Saving them!
Woxic! Again! Woxic is the savior of Aurora! Wokadia coming in!
Mattis and some Pius!
Slow it down. Don't rush it. Don't rush it.
Everyone pause. Everyone freeze.
I would have to say we've killed 3A. Let's go in.
Nobody die. Watch for pushes. Everyone chill.
Whoever flashed, heavy god.
I think it was a team flash.
It was the flash to activate him to swing.
Yeah, but he was just coming out he might have flashed because the first flash went right so it must have been a second flash
He's open I just going for it. He's scouting in. This is a worthy sacrifice even if he goes down
You notice one player here. He just claps into a do you call them back? What is he? Yeah, you do play sure for sure
Call the boys back through the water
slip in their way
Matt is gonna have a piece of watch in the hall
Oh, this is making me feel better.
Mattis on the ankle, taking down by saw flight, and that is it.
Ladies and gentlemen, Serpius will not be picking this one up.
A 1v4 just isn't within the realms of possibility,
but the Spaniard will try and entertain us.
He's coming back into the Coliseum for one last fight in this B-bomb site.
Maybe he's got a little heavy guard in him.
Maybe he's got that little style points coming into this round.
It's a huge maybe, Jason, but I like what you're putting down.
Let's see what he can do with that.
A lot of steps he's got to take and Wokse's got the angle. He holds it strong and look to the skies because in Stockholm
We're gonna have an Aurora sighting in the playoffs
It is Turkish delight as they finally take themselves a 2-0 victory getting the job done every round in regulation required
But they get it done over G2
Yeah lovely performance out of the Aurora guys
So you got to see a little bit of everything closing out their map the new bus which is so strong
I love watching so fly in this team playing really well.
Woxic was impactful.
Woxic on the right foot as well.
Yeah, say to the day, high octane situations
and having to think on his feet, offer up his orbiters
and Tarris who had to close out a clutch as well.
To be fair though, I still think G2 go through check.
Surely like this level of performance
are on the precipice each and every series.
It's going to depend on the matchup that they get tomorrow.
Right, I think that is going to be one of the massive factors
that will determine whether they're
able to make it through or not because we have G2
3D Max Navi, Astralis, and Furia as the team's battling tomorrow.
I don't know what the match is and how they're going to light it up.
We'll get that pulled up at some point before we wrap up the show.
But those are the remaining six teams we'll be playing in our final three best of threes for the group stages.
We get a up close and personal count with Centauri's there, but congratulations, Gostrura.
They are back in another playoffs and here's their run.
A two-one of a legacy who qualified earlier today, a two-zero loss there to the Mongols
and the graphics gone so I can't keep reading off of it.
The BG2.
You guys can pause it.
The BG2 because you can work it out.
And Trace has been sitting here the whole time
in between the four of us.
Every single map.
I've been there since the beginning.
That's great.
You know, you run, you get the water.
You know, you think I need to back massage.
Jason needs his shoes changed.
I thought I was just sitting here.
I didn't know I was working for you guys.
What the hell?
You're doing something.
You know, there we go again, man.
I'm sitting out.
I wouldn't necessarily say hanging out,
but I do feel like I did hear the chirps
that were g2 are going to put Aurora perhaps where they belong remember who said that was it anybody over here?
No, I don't I think your issue is Henry you thought they were going to be playing with high ping so
Once that one on the window clarify those points are made. I want to boot camp but I assume a belgrade. Yeah
That's what we're at. Yeah, and that's what an organization could do for you, right?
They get you a space where you're able to play with low ping and that's what it's all about
That is exactly what it's all about, but gentlemen, I have been sat back there idly waiting
We asked you to crunch some numbers. Did you crunch them? I don't know how to do numbers Chad
That's where your first mistake was you can ask me about reading and stuff, but the numbers thing
That's what I thought but the guys they showed me that you were the number. Oh, they don't do reading
See what they were saying quant are these the games round these these could be very what they says verse
These are the games. Okay, now beat reading max. Yeah, how are we on Astralis is an old-school banger
That's let's go that's gonna be a lot of fun. Let me let me pose this question to the couch
Would you prefer a straw list to win over fury up nearly? Yes?
Why be 100% yeah, because I want to pick sit is my MVP for the playoffs
So you want fury to win? Yes, and everyone else wants a straw list to win. Yeah
Virtue of not having your full lineup
I'm excited about the G2 foot game because G2 versus foot was a game
We got to see a crack off where it's for had a chance to make it to the next stage
Shout and they lost a full if lost a full usp round against you to and I kind of ruined the whole game on ancient
So I'm hoping that food has learned from that and getting more used to the pressure at this point
And maybe that can be a fun game. I feel like they could get the win that
Jason you okay?
I've been sitting here for hours again like he said yeah about the 18th time he's done this and I already feel uncomfortable
It's kind of treating you like he's dogs. Don't I mean, I just
He's cleaning them up. He was looking sloppy on camera.
I'm just trying to keep it good.
We are going to be trying to get an interview, but we will have a couple of minutes.
Imagine, right?
Yeah.
Just say, how's it feel, mate?
I've got some questions.
I think my main thing is, I don't think anyone's considering them a favour to win this tournament right now.
Or do I have to hear his thoughts?
No vitality.
Is this like a statement tournament for them to actually try and get a win
and actually show that they can actually compete for trophies these days?
Look, I'm sure Tracer did a bunch of these, but the ones that are always really tough with Aurora is the stage losing interview.
It's like Wal-Win-Rom today, and it's like the same thing every time.
They're unable to find whatever it is to get them to that next stage of Aurora, which is...
I don't want to ask that now, but, you know...
It does feel like not all that long ago we watched them playing a big Best of Five Grand Final in Malta.
Uh, against...
It was Na'Vi?
No, that wasn't a game. That was Na'Vi versus Furia.
No, it was Sennify.
The turn of fire definitely played in one of the last five.
We're talking about TWC. We're talking about EPL.
EPL.
I thought we were talking about TWC.
Hands up. It's back up. Sorry guys.
I called him.
I'll shoot you.
I'll never do it.
Also, EWC, they did play that.
Yes, true.
That's where the confusion came from.
But not in this one.
That's where I got it wrong.
You were talking about final. You were talking about EPL.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Many seasons ago now.
It feels like many seasons ago.
But if life is one big season, Chad,
I mean, I think at that point.
Well, it was in this life.
If this life is a season.
Life is but a season what season are we in?
23.
Oh, is it spring? Yeah.
When is spring official April?
I think March 23rd, March 23rd.
So close.
Yeah.
Just rounded up, you know, that's how I know when you're
coming out.
That's serious.
That was close.
Yeah.
Rush's birthday.
I want to know who he thinks with Vitality not here is the
quote unquote top dog.
Rush.
No, no, no.
Major.
Okay.
Yeah.
It's more such as the.
Just making sure there was no transition from topic to topic.
Oh, I reckon he's on a stack, though.
He has to be on a stack?
He has to be.
No, he's a little bit.
Dad's normally on a stack.
Jason's on a stack, so.
Three man stacks, but.
You got the.
You got the pickle jar open in strength, though.
I got vitamin D. That's it.
Are you on a stack?
Like, what kind of stacks you all on?
Triple stacks?
Yeah, three man stacks.
Maybe I shouldn't say that out here, but perhaps.
Oh, we're talking about, like, supplements.
Like fish oil, vitamin D.
Oh, no.
I just went straight to McDonald's, man.
I think it's.
Anyway, yeah, with that being said, let's talk to Madger because stacks and steroids and all that is not here.
Madger, are you doing any supplements, mate? Are you taking any vitamin D?
No, bro, no. All these are vitamin D natural.
Just doing it natural, all right. Very natural.
We're going to ask the question. It's big around here at EPL.
Congratulations on the victory today, mate. 2-0 got close on both maps.
Were you sweating balls?
It was a difficult match. First of all, hello everyone on the couch.
Hello. Nice to meet you.
And yeah, it was a difficult match, I think, to very close both maps,
but in the end I'm very happy that we won and we secured the playoffs.
How is the Nubis feeling for you guys right now?
It used to be your best map in the pool. How are you finding the new iteration of it?
Is it feeling just like home?
To be honest, I think we're not playing a lot of official enemies because everyone bonnets.
After a trade, we move like there is in the top 10.
I don't know how many teams play against an enemy, maybe G2, but other navi also,
but rest and spirit and the rest I think I'm vetoing.
So for now, we like it, we still like it.
You must be happy as backers, right?
You've got to be happy.
Yeah, to be honest, yes, we are happy that it was a strong map to us.
Last year, we had a lot of issues with Amapul, you know, and having Anubis, it's obviously a good thing to watch here.
Talk to me about, I want to know about Soulfly. Can you talk to me about what your thoughts are on him and the team with so recently, this game especially, but just his short period of time in the roster.
So look good, look great. Today he had some huge kills for you guys. What's he been like playing with?
I think he's starting very well. I think I'm very happy about his performance since three months.
It's been now three months. He came in January. Today also, he did some very important entry kills,
like on Mirage on B, when he killed the support with ADP in the last round.
So I think he did well, and I'm very happy. It's a long process, you know.
He need to adapt to the new wars, yeah, he's the best part of it.
He bailed you out of that heavy god 1v5 as well, that was kind of important.
Yeah, this one was impossible to lose, to be honest, if we lose that, I think Montagy bomb!
Well, coming into this tournament, we don't have Vitality, Falcons, Fury won't have Fallen
in the playoffs if they make it.
In your perspective, what do you guys place yourself going into the overall tournament
hierarchy?
Where do you guys see yourself?
I don't know, play Smash, losing, going home.
Let's see guys, we're working hard to be honest.
I think it's better day by day, it's just CS, you know, nowadays it's difficult against any opponent, you know.
You need to be in good days, good months ahead, and that's all, like I think we're just working day by day, you know, and just living day by day.
Out of the teams who have already qualified, so you've got the Mongols there, you've got Maus there, we had Legacy qualified a little bit earlier today, obviously.
Yeah, so out of the out of the squads that are in the playoffs at the moment
Who do you think is the top dog the team to be right without vitality at this one?
Spirit maybe maybe spirit
Spirit now's is there too. Maybe yeah most of so maybe yeah, I think the main parent should be spirit and the mouse
So hey, who's birthday to that season birthday balloon? Yeah, what's the blood?
Yeah, it was two days ago, three days ago we came here, birthday.
Okay.
And where are you guys bootcamping?
Because Henry was a little bit worried about the ping.
He thought you guys were going to be playing from Turkey.
Like, I think every time we play online like this,
it's impossible for us to play from Turkey, with the internet.
So we always bootcamping in our house in Serbia, in Belgrade, thanks to them.
They have a good house here that we can train bootcamp and play official match here.
And we have 19 things and I think it's okay. It's enough beautiful. All right. Yeah, this is Eddie last word for we let you go, mate
Thank you guys. Thank you for the people on the chat and obviously I will thanks my family like always
I love you guys. I love the baby
Good night everyone. Cheers brother. Congratulations. See you in a couple days, and that's Aurora
That's that looks like the bootcamp still is having a good time
It's still got helium in the balloons. So, you know life is is prevalent around there one more day three more teams
Go on three more matches. Yep. Okay. That's it. Yeah, that sums it up
That's it kind of there. We kind of made it in a way in a way some would say
Oh, how about I just say what needs to be said? It's time to go to bed and with that
I wish you all at home a very good night and a very pleasant sleep
Thank you for watching it so for at least season 23
We'll be back tomorrow if you can believe they're not a vote for virtual is a vote for Turkey to was done it again
The two o club will keep bringing you to us every day
I'm such a weirdo, tattoos from my toes to my ear, yo
Cause the world out of life never had a hero, I learned how to live through the step of your
Coming from the, I come from the inner period, yo
Every time you see a word, you can feel it, yo
Everything that I built made that from zero, then added a zero
I am my hero, you're getting magical, it's like in my mind
This mood in the past should be at the same time
Remember they asked me when it was gang time, they want to deny to me
I'm on your can't find, I'm not from the day, I'm coming live at night
I'm not what you used to be, you can't recognize, they all on the ground
While I'm taking flight, you're welcome to join me, I promise I won't fight
Things they say, they're never getting in my way
And even if I make mistakes, I will always be the truth
Cause I don't wanna play your game
I have enough brain, I'm so hot, I just break your teeth
You can never stop spilling out the dynamite
The dynamite
They call me a monster, I guess I don't fit in with the imposters
I'm picking the mask off, prepare your conscience, prepare for armies
Cause I'm falling nonsense, I'm all in your shadow, wonder who shot you
I'm here to stop your whore who wants smoke like a roster break your all popper
They change, they never do the need
And Jack.
Alright, alright, let's do this.
It's a perfect end!
Where is he coming from?
This is madness!
Thank god that's over.

I chose to go full serious.
It's the sacrifice that I wanted to make to become the best.
