 Payo has no cooldowns. He's going in. If the Dodds fall off, he can sleep us. Sleep us? Oh, Will's back off cooldown! Big Will! Oh, no. That might be it for Hydra! He's the damage to finish him out. Little, uh, Tuber coming out from Bob goes back up to 40% life. But look how much mana he has! Plus the name coming out! Big Shadler! Oh, it's gonna be close here on the finish. There's a lip and a drain life. Fear being casted. If that lands, it's all but over. Finish in the clutch! Sheepshot lands on Miss Rage! No way! Damage! Oh, my gosh! Take him out! It's not over! What the f***, how are they not dead?! He's mana potting. He's got to get Moonfire up, Insects warm. He's got the Dodds rolling. Man, Luxia's cutting it out. There's the interface! He's getting mana back! What happened? Luxia fled from the duel. Luxia fled from the duel. You idiot! Why would you flee?! Why would you flee?! You had it! I'm good to see you guys. We're finally here. I'm here with Zaryu. I'm here with Soda Poppin' for the OTK Starforge Hardcore Mont-Garras Tournament. How do you guys feel, dude? Are you guys excited? Bro, I feel like it's Christmas morning. I couldn't sleep. I wake up and I'm like, I just can't wait to see these duels authentically just nerding out. Man, I can't wait to see it. A lot of us have been grinding WoW, so went to bed. I tried to go to bed early. I couldn't, so I took a sleeping pill to make sure I could sleep and be up in time bright and early for this. We are here. The sun is coming up. It is crazy, and I'm still on a sleeping pill, but hopefully it will wear off. One of my favorite things about this entire tournament, though, is it's not about winning the duel necessarily. It's about not dying for a month. Getting pre-vis and showing up on Day of Alive, because at the end of the day, it's still a hardcore tournament. We've done hardcore tournaments in the past of leveling challenges, like level to 20 in New Wailing Caverns or whatever. Part of the tournament is not dying for a month, right? That's not easy, by any means. Absolutely. There are so many different ways to die, which we've seen. I think I've played hardcore by now. Hopefully not the hard way, but I've learned there are so many ways to die. There's only one way to learn it, man. You just don't think about it, man. It's not that you don't think about it, it's that your brain turns off. There's so much down time and just relaxing. You're on a griffin, you're AFK, you come back, and it's boom. Everything ramps up so quickly. The heart gets running, and then you make mistakes. I'm curious to see how the nerves are for these. I guess these aren't going to be Montgarat duels today, are they? These are normal duels. These are the characters before the finals tomorrow, right? Tomorrow, blood is shed, lives will be lost tomorrow, and I cannot wait. Today, we find out who is even worthy of stepping into the battlefield. Because this is an open tournament, anybody can join. I'm excited because today, I mean, dare I say, I might actually be more excited about today than tomorrow. Today is kind of like watching college football over the NFL, right? We have a lot of stupid bad players that manage to step in, and I cannot wait to see their mistakes. They're going to be going up against a lot of the big names, the big boys. There's probably a lot of sleeper agents out there that are super duper good. But we're going to have a lot of really shitty players that just say, you know what, I got nothing going on this month, let me give it a whirl. And I cannot wait to point out mistakes. What I really like about this Swiss bracket, and it's one of the reasons we decided on normal duels and not macarons is because each player is actually going to have five duels. So for example, if we did a normal kind of a singly limb or doubly limb style bracket, if first round Ziko got paired into like snuts, it's like, okay, if one of them dropped the game, they are out with this guys. Each player will have five duels. They're going to do a five times today. You're going to get one point for each win. And then the top point players of each class will be moving on to tomorrow for the Makara duel. So with this style bracket, we get to see really like the best players and they can really have five duels to show you that they are the best. And the other thing is, no, this is undiscovered territory. It's very rare, especially in a game like classic where there isn't a figured out meta. If you told me we're doing a basic dual tournament with generic dual rules, no health plots, et cetera, I can tell you what classes are supposed to win. I cannot tell you here. I have no idea. Some classes are at such a disadvantage, though, that they're screwed. But the best of each class will be walking away with money. So if you're playing the worst class, we don't know what it is yet. We'll figure it out today probably. You're playing the worst class. You can still win if you're the best at the worst class. So if we did Makara's now, it just be all fucked. We can't figure that kind of stuff out. So today is qualifiers. There's a there's a lot, a lot, a lot, a lot that's gone into this. So the way that we're doing this tournament, we think this is the best way. There's so much work that's been done. And I talked about this a little bit earlier, man, but I mean, we've done like peanuts. We've done basically nothing compared to the amount of time and effort and work that the staff, the volunteers, everybody behind the scenes. I mean, TIPS is basically coming out of retirement, you know, pulling back to the CDL days. I mean, you guys know if you're an old frog at this point, you remember the little classic 2019 dual league. So there's been a lot of work that's gone into this from these guys. And I cannot stress enough how thankful we are for just just how much time these guys have volunteered and how much time these guys have given up for it. So yeah, I mean, it's absolutely great, man. Every single other dual tournament that we've ever done or we've participated in, there's like it's just this like compendium of rules or it's like you can't do that. You can't use this ability. You can't. And well, to be fair, those rules are just like there is a what's the word, a decorum in dueling like you don't want to use health. Yeah, it's like it's like unspoken like unspoken rules. Yeah. And so those rules, we have a ton of rules, but it's like, it's not like we made those. That's just how wow has been raised. Right. And we just throw him in saying, hey, that is banned for this tournament too. Right. But not this also not like that's not how the game was designed. Right. People always talk about how like, oh, classic wow is unbalanced. Right. You know, this class sucks. That class can't do this. And then one of you go and you sit down and you're like, hey, like, OK, well, you can't do that. It's like, well, bro, that's not how they didn't build the game under the pretense that you can't do this and you can't do that. So let's go. Let's let's, you know, prison rules, just rat tactics, the whole nine yards, let the kids play to some extent. Right. They're to a certain extent, because there's certain things that like you could be, you can literally just spam petries and stall out a duel for like 10 hours, right? Hypothetically, right? You could spam. You could you could stall it out for a very long time. Like there's certain rules that we put in place that it's like, OK, there's too much, but we wanted to have this game be the most. Let the kids play the damn game. Let's play classic. Wow. Let's see what happens. There's never been a tournament like this before. Let's send it and just see how it goes. Because like you said, Zaryu, you look back to the old tournaments and it's like, oh, everybody talks about overpowered warlocks or this and that and warlocks keep winning. Right. But then what are all these rules that are like warriors? For example, everybody says warrior sucks. Warriors get cocked so hard. Yeah, they're going to slam. So so hard. But now they have like rest of pots that you can you can faff. You can live. You can there's tons of different things. There's all the all the things to basically drown out your weaknesses. And I wouldn't want it any other way in a mock or a tournament, right? Because OK, if you're actually in game and you're actually mock or eyeing, there's no way you're holding back anything ever. It's like your character is deleted. You might as well use every single thing in your inventory in your bags. And if someone goes like, oh, well, you shouldn't use that. It's like, man, like, of course, I'm going to pot. They'll be telling you to not use that next time as a corpse. That's right. OK, like you're dead, bro. Just to piggyback on that, the only kind of rules that we have in the rulebook and maybe we can actually take a look at the rules. Yeah, I would love to see we do still have some rules. There are some rules. And one of those rules as fun pointed out was the flask of petrification. Right. We don't want to just have players flask of Petri, which is a 60 second immunity if you're not aware into another one and do another one because it's not a fun viewing experience. It would just be like nothing would happen. And we don't want people sitting in stealth for many, many minutes. But one of the first general rule here is gear acquired and acquired and raids is not allowed. And the reason we decided on that is because we wanted a little bit more of a fair playing field now. Of course, if you have streamer benefits, you know, we're not denying that. But with no raid gear allowed, it makes it so that players can get to 60 do dungeons and actually play. If we had raids allowed, it would be like who could corrupt the loot council to get into the raids and just get all the best epics within the within the first month and then someone would have like probably Naxxi or somehow and then just one shot everybody else. And we didn't want that. World buffs are not going to be allowed. So that's going to be the dire mall buffs, Zanzos, Darkmoon Fair, all that kind of stuff. All class abilities are allowed. Once we're in that dueling location, we're going to have competitors stay in that dueling location. So it's not like you can get summoned around the world and collect all these different items that you had a month to prepare. You bring what you can. Once you're in that location, you're in that location. I want to see more of these things. There's a you can only have a certain amount of flasks. Yeah. So so we said it's a three flask in the back. So if you want to prepop a flask, you're allowed to. I think that was a great change. One of the things that you can do with flasks is if you're low mana, you can pop a flask and it'll actually act as like a pseudo mana pot. So if you're zero mana and you pop like a mana flask, it'll actually give you like 1500 mana or something like that, which is a fair amount and spammable with no cooldown. So a lot of players are worried like if you don't cap flasks, players that are have infinite gold somehow are going to continue to spam flask. And there's HP flask, right? Flask of Titans. And you can just keep flask of Titans and keep reaching HP. So we're like, okay, let's let's cap this so that you can't just come in with a hundred flasks and just spam it and never die. So that was one of the rules. The only other really two rules right there that engineering. Yeah, repair bots are banned. And then the no mesh mind control cap, the no much mind control cap. I think it's an obvious one. If you mind control someone, you could actually like hire a hitman to come and kill them. That would be third partying. I've actually dealt with that in the last tournament that we ran. And we do not want that happening. So no, no much mind control cap for that reason, no repair bots, flask of Petri. And besides that, pretty much do it. Yeah. Because I think I think some people might be like, wait, what's the deal with repair bots? We didn't want to have somebody do do a bag check, right? Sell stuff, do a bag check and then go open up a repair bot and then like feed themselves. Wow. Yeah. So that's why we decided to ban repair bots. Who thought of that? They thought of everything, bro. You gotta be a rat to think like a rat. Holy crap. Whoever did that, I would not trust them in the tournament because they think of slimy shit like that. Holy crap. With that being said, there will be some fuck ups and I cannot wait. We have admins. There will be rules that are broken. There will be things that go wrong. I guarantee it. It never doesn't. And someone is, someone's going to come in, have to put their foot down and say, hey, listen, this is the best decision we can make. This is what's happening and we're moving forward. And when that happens, we've got admins that'll come in, they'll lay down the law and they'll tell you what's up and you just have to accept that because we got a tournament to keep going in. And that's just how it is. Just to clarify for the chat, the Makara finals are happening tomorrow. Today is the qualifiers for the Makara tournament. In the qualifiers, each player has five duels. The top point earners are moving to the Makara finals tomorrow. That'll be the top 64, I believe, competitors tomorrow in the Makara. Today, we're doing duels for points. Each player, five duels, top pointers of each class move to tomorrow. What's up guys? It's S-Fan here and I want to tell you guys about StarForge Systems, the best PCs in the universe. We have two different lines of computers, six computers total, and they all are priced at different points for different needs. You have the Horizon 2, which is a great entry computer, and you even have the Voyager Creator Elite, which has a 4090 and a 13900K. That's what I use. It's great for doing everything that you need for streaming, and not only do I use it, every other OTK member uses it as well. So we do shipping to all of the United States and to Canada, and there's a two-year warranty on your computers. Our prices are competitive, and it's backed by creators everywhere. So make sure to head on over to StarForgeSystems.com and get a new computer today. The best of each class will win money. So that influences people to play every class, so it's not just one through the whole thing, we're the top three. In order to figure out the best of each class, we're going to have to have people with a win-loss ratio. In order to have that, you cannot die on your first duel. You just can't do it. We're going to get an actual bracket going here, and tomorrow, people are going to start dying. What is something going on here? This is Peo versus Hydra. Oh my gosh. I can't wait, and the duel is underway. The dual flag has been dropped. Hydra is playing Shadow. Oil of emulation. Do you see it? The oil of emulation. He might get Peo out of stealth. Does it work like that? This is great. Hydra mounts up in Shadow Form. Sap comes out. It breaks him. It breaks him. Huge. Peo's going to go for a restelth here, but he doesn't get the combo points like he wanted with the cheap shot. So Peo's opener in his mind is already thrown off. Peo going for the resap here, opening up with that mechanical dragonling. Might have a few combo points here. Let's see the opener restelth one more time. No heartbreak beat there. Vanish for the opener. Sheepshot comes out with two pets, and Hydra's probably pretty scared right now. Trinket into that full fear. Will of forsaken immediately, and Hydra's under pressure. See, he will of forsaken the fear, but then Hydra is free to just throw every other bit of CC. He's still got his magic dust. He's getting all of his dispels. He is slowing this duel down. Peo is going to get controlled so hard here. Here comes the dots getting on to Peo. The damage is going to start coming in from Hydra, and he's just going to keep his distance. And now he's going to be able to fear him too. Grenade? Oh, Peo's just getting controlled forever. Very impressive kites here from Hydra, but look at Peo's health. 80%. Shadow Priest's 50% mana to Peo's health bar. If we're comparing mana to health here, I would say Peo might still be in a slight lead, although as I say that, he's getting ticked down. That's the second blind preparation used. Looks like Peo is going to want to maybe bandage up here or eat up. Nice resale sap here coming out, but looks like it might be DR'd. I don't know if Peo knows that. Bandage is coming out, topping himself back off. But Hydra is back high on mana. Now here's the big difference. Peo on his second opener is not going to have that, but he will not have that helmet to CC Peo, the goblin helmet. So Hydra might be in a world of hurt here. Sheepshot coming out into a full kidney. But everything is, he goes through the fear, he doesn't have will. He trinkets it, but now Hydra is free to, what the fuck, magic dust him, but I don't know if he's going for it. He's going for damage, but he's getting rushed down with so much damage. He's got to get some control on Peo, I feel like. Here comes a tuber coming out, little bit of extra health. Big eviscerate. That exposed armor, he needs to get him CC'd. He goes for some heals. There's the helmet. Oh, man. Oh, he, oh, okay. There goes the helmet on to Peo or on to Hydra. Peo is going to get some eating, some resets, some saps. Maybe a little. Yeah. This might be over here. There it is. It's really good bandage value. This right here, dude, he might actually have this. I think Peo might be a slight lead here and something that's really impressive is that he's so tanky. I think it's those potions we were talking about. Peo's just not taking much damage. Another reselled cheap shot. There's a break into a full fear. This is the reset Hydra's looking for. There's the shadow word pain, and Hydra has such great positioning. There's the renew max range with that shadow word pain. Hydra's looking to reset this out. He can be healed up, dude. He brought out a limb to break the stun. Peo has no more CC breaks. Hydra can reset this duel so many times with any bit of CC at this point and heal back up. And Peo has no cooldowns. He's going in. If the Dodds fall off, he can sleep guys. Sleep guys. Oh, Will's back off cooldown. Oh, no. Hydra could just die. He needs his fear back off CD. I don't know what the timer is on it. He's going for the heals. He's trying to get them off. He gouges it because he has no kick. The next fear, the game is over if he gets it. That might be it for Hydra. See, Peo has the damage to finish him out. Hydra goes down. That was so close. Dude, that was sick, dude. Wow. That was amazing. That was incredible, man. So at the beginning when that thing started, Hydra definitely had the upper hand for the first maybe 30 seconds of that thing. And then Peo had such a massive, massive reset coming in. And really, I thought that Hydra might have had it before that grenade landed. Getting the full fear off. Getting the heals in, got granated, came back in. Unbelievable, dude. That was hype. The real thing coming in here is we don't get to see the cooldowns on our screen, but that will have forsaken coming back off CD for another fear break was it. Ziko is going. Come on, production. Get us in there. And it looks like we haven't missed much. It looks like the rug isn't open yet. Look at the bottom right. Look at the bottom. Look at all his decisions. He's got an arsenal. I love it. I love seeing their perspective. This gear though from Ziko is some of the best gear. I think it is the best gear you can get at least from Ziko's perspective. I don't think there's anything else he was still going for and needing out of these last couple days. Look at this. Sageblade 20 Spirit Enchant for the Long Duels. I love that book of the dead. I love that skeleton. We have that storm rager with a 1.3 speed nature resist wand arena grandmaster very difficult to get that without dying title charm. Check the ranks. Oh my God. Ziko knows what the duel is about. My man is wearing defense and stamina because he knows what his win condition is. He is geared and prepped for this duel. I want to point this out because there's no like there's nothing like resilience in that in vanilla. If you get defense on gear in vanilla each point of defense gives you 0.04 like parry dodge and block. So defense effectively and it also increases their chance to miss against you. Now you have to be able to do those things in the first place but defense is actually a very good stat to mitigate. Here we go. He gets the sap off. The alarm bot doesn't do what it needs. You go ahead. This is your duel. You're the mage. Ziko's trying to live the crazy burst that's about to come in here from Savik. Ziko knows that. Has a lot of stamina. Heartbeat breaks. Frost Nova. Savik's out of stealth. Gouge lands Ziko kiting with the thorium nades. Still has the trinket to stun. Savik's if he needs to. Sheep goes out. Trinket to break the sheep. Looks like a fab's being used. Blind on the sheep. Really well played here from Savik's. Savik doesn't want to waste too much precious time getting hit all over Ziko and break that shield. Ziko's still full life. I'd say it's a fairly even duel right now. Sheepshot coming out just to build combo points. Savik's is not going to break that yet. There it is. Ice block late. I think there's still a second blind here from Savik's. Let's see if he uses it. Another cold snap coming out. Ziko goes to the blink into the reset. Polymorph being casted and it lands. Looks like Savik's is going to be sitting that one and Ziko's going to get them. Was that what that was? It looked like it was but the timing didn't quite work out. The sheep breaks early on the heartbeat. Re-stealth goes off. That's a massive blunder there from Ziko. But he does get him out of stealth. There's the cone of cold at land. Ziko kiting out Arena Grandmaster being used. Very close duel. Tidal Charm from Savik's. I think Ziko still has the Tidal Charm in return and he does use it. There's another sheep reset. Nicely done there from Ziko. Ziko's going to go full range here. I think Savik's is almost out of cooldowns though. I think Ziko has done it. I think that was kind of the onslaught there from Savik's. Now handling this very well. Counterspell being used to keep Savik's in combat and it pays off. There's the charge helmet there from Savik's to get another gap break to Ziko. Gouge coming out to build those combo points. Savik's going for another re-stealth. Some item swaps coming out on top of that. Savik's does indeed go into stealth. Reopens up onto Ziko. Frost Nova coming out. That's the last blind. Ziko blocks it. Professional plays here from Ziko. Savik's on his last vanish as well. That nade lands. It's over. Does it land? It does not land. Savik's is going to have 60 seconds in stealth. The alarma bot still up. Oh! Coming out from Ziko. MLG plays there. Really, really nicely done. Konokold coming out. Savik's doesn't have anything left. Ziko's pretty much lived at this point. Going to max range. Ziko 80% life. Swapping items that evoke to full mana just to make sure he has enough to get the job done here. Another sheep landing. Frost bolts coming out. No need for the fireball. No more vanishes. That's not really too much here. Nade coming out. It's not going to be a big deal. Ziko's going to be able to kite this one out. Oh, another found out. Yeah, another fast comes out and a sheep to reset the fat, but it's on DR. This is going to be a scary 40 seconds, 30 seconds for Ziko. He doesn't... No block either. No block. No way to kite this. Oh! Speed! He's going for it. He knows. And they're both sprinting. It's the sprint boots and the sprint boots. So well played from both players here. Ziko's keeping Sav combat so we can't get the restells with his rank one arcane explosions. Just hiding out the fast. There's only one second left and that is it. Oh my gosh, the Kona pulled on the restel. This is incredible to watch. Another Nova coming out. Big shatter combo. There's a ice reflector. Well played, but Savics, he doesn't have much left. There's no there's no ice. Oh, he does get a restel randomly. Nice rank one blizzard from Ziko. Immediately blinking and aggressively there. Savics turns around on the blink. Doesn't look like he's going to be able to connect. There's another frost Nova. Oh my god. Hell stone back to full. There's oh the net. He's got no blink. He's got no blocks. He blinked in. He blinked in. He's got to take this damage. He's getting clobbered. He's got no answers for it. He's oh Ziko. Savics might have done it. The reset though from Ziko and then the through box medicine pouch to heal him up. There's a wand taken out the dragonling first aid. Ziko's going to play this one a little more careful this time. Another restel coming out frost. No. He's got to get mana. He's drinking. He's going to accept. Okay, now it's mind game. Ziko wants to drink but Savics wants to sap him. He could drink. He could go for AOE. He's got to get this. Savics has no tools left. Nothing left. Oh, he gets him. Gouch. That he missed a whole lot of nothing. Big Nova. It's important to know may just have pretty long cooldowns. We can rotate up to this next sprint this next vanish potentially before like the cold snap for example comes back up. So we'll see if in the super long game maybe the road can rotate back through another net comes out and it does land. There's a fab. This is going to be scary. No more blocks. Blink coming out from Ziko. 6% mana pot being used back up to 45% resist on the poly. Yes. No, that's going to be scary. There's a counter spill so we can't get the restel. But if Ziko fights this, he's going to take so much damage here. Nowhere to run. Nowhere to hide. No line of sight. There's a blink coming through. Savics can close the gap. A full kidney shot or cheap shot can land. Fire blasts to keep the combat. Faps running low here. I've made soon. He's going to get a restel here. He's going to get... There it is. Misses the Nova. Savics dodges it. Dude, Savics. These are two players at the top at the absolute top of their respective classes, dude. These guys are unbelievable. They've been unbelievable players for years. Retail classic the whole nine yards. This is an unbelievable deal, man. Big first aid coming in. Full HP. There's just... There's no cooldowns. It's just health bar versus health bar now. Trying all that for me. Getting the karma points. Oh, big eviscerate into the blind. This is what I was talking about. The blind rotated up. I don't know if Ziko has a block yet for this. Arcane bomb. The silence and the damage. If that doesn't miss. Okay. If he gets that Arcane Bomb on this sap, Ziko's going to be silenced. Savics could burst him down. Let's see if he goes for the Arcane Bomb opener. There's the cheap shot. Ooh, I would have liked to have him come out from Ziko. Another health advantage for the counter play into the cheap shot. Savics is all over him, kitty. No out for this at all. Ziko no blink. No ice block. 50% life. So much damage coming through. There's the net as well. It doesn't backfire. Ziko on the back foot. Nade coming out into the poly reset once again. She comes out on the polymorph. What is Ziko going to do? There's the blink. Another nice big frost bite coming out into the half to your polymorph. The dark room doesn't quite break the poly. The timing is really good. He's going to get some drinks. He knows Savics is far away. He knows he can't get to him. He's trying to eat and drink while running away to get as much out of as possible before Savics catches up with the sap. I mean, Ziko is tanky. He ate a full kidney shot as a mage versus a rogue. And he's going to get some drinks. He's going to get some drinks. He knows Savics is far away. He knows he can't get to him. He's trying to eat and drink while running away to get some mage versus a rogue. In full dark mantle gear. I mean, he just tanked the whole thing. He gets about a stealth. Oh my gosh. That was a really nice arcane explosion. The game sense coming in from the big Z. Really impressive frost nova. Ow, but Ziko is still very low. Savics full life. Net comes out. Blink to respond. Counter spell so that Savics doesn't get that resale. Full poly once again. Hopefully we don't get that heart beat. First aid here. Nice Ziko first aiding back to full. Just trying to slow down the duel. Heart beat once again. Savics getting the rest of when rank one arcane explosions coming out to try to find them, but it looks like Savics is not going to be fooled this time. I would love to see an arcane bomb burst coming out. Nice arcane explosion, though. Unreal and he's a grenade while drink walking perfectly. That's so unbelievably impressive, man. Have that game sense big big poly Ziko just trying to get control of this game. He needs to just get all his cool down like the cooldowns are gone again and Ziko has his cooldowns back at this point. I think Ziko is at a huge advantage. Heart beat. Ziko is looking good. The only thing I'm concerned about is Savics is so tanky. It's super hard to kill the rogue. You can get the rogue out of cooldowns, but the rogue will just walk at you for like three minutes and it's just really hard to kill the rogue. I think for the rogue to kill the mage, though, it's a similar story. It has to be some type of arcane bomb burst combo, but arcane bomb I believe my share cool on the FAP, so it's going to be a hard one. Now that Nova comes out, Ziko kites it out. Ice barrier. Net to follow. That's not what Ziko wants here. Full DR poly dark room. Once again, the timing on it must be just insanely tricky. It's like one frame. Yeah. Yeah. Super, super tough. Counterspell once again to keep the rogue combat in case the poly breaks. The counterspell keep the rogue combat and the rogue will not be able to restelf and it does break and that counterspell came in clutch there. Frostbolt's coming out. He's still 100% HP. Oh, there we go. The UI hadn't updated. Okay. Big grenade. Max rank bolt doing 10% of his health. This might be it then. This might be it then. I mean, what is Savick's going to do? He's trying to get a restelf, but Ziko knows this. He's not going to let him do it at this point. He's got him on the ropes. He's got to turn around. He's got to walk into him. Here comes the chicken. Here comes the mortar. I think it backfired or no. Savick's mortar him. He's going to block the blind. Really well played. Conakold coming out. Big shatter. This could be it here for Savick. So that's a frostbolt fire blast. Boom! 3% life arc and explosion. That's it. Damn. What a duel, man. I mean, both of these guys are absolutely unbelievable players. Dude, I really thought Savick's had a chance to come back there, man. I noticed that when he got blinded, typically the mage just ice blocks it. Right, Zaryu? Yep. That's what you want to do. You pretty much trade it, but Ziko knew Savick's had FAP running and he said, you know what? I'm going to let you blind me and I'm going to sit the whole thing because that's 10 seconds of your FAP. Yep. And those kind of decisions in like an undiscovered territory like this is really what is going to set Ziko and others apart. What an absolute pleasure to watch and cast that game. That was just brilliant from both perspectives. Looks like here we have a mage-mere matchup. This is one of those duels that can go a while. It's going to be like whatever mage goes aggressive first will lose because once you start going aggressive the other mage will reset on you, evil and bandage up and now you're on the back foot. Is that a pyroblast? Oh my gosh. One of the mages might be opting for fire and Brew just getting jumped. Shad, well done. Yeah, I mean that was just... That's what it is. Dude, I mean the duels so far have been absolutely phenomenal. We're in Bobca versus Dendario. Yeah, so Bobca has this mage on the run the man is down to 20%. The mage is trying to stall this duel out. So just a quick TLDR in the duel. Mage wants to stall it out Rogue wants to rush him down. Bobca's sheet breaks and he's in hot pursuit. Maybe he gets a restelth here if the mage doesn't stop it and he does. Bobca going into that restelth. Big AoEs coming out here from Dendario. There's the ice barrier to protect himself just a little bit. This is not looking good for the mage. Don't know. I think it's over. Well, here's the thing. In this matchup if the mage lives with just one life but the Rogue is out of vanishes and out of sprints and out of blinds, it's tough. When the sapper comes out so much damage Dendario putting up that Fire Ward though very well done. Tidal Sherman to the Sheep reset. So yeah, the mage could bandage and Evo back to full if he still has those cooldowns available. If not just eating the full and kiting it out making sure Bobca's out of cooldowns waiting for the sprints to vanishes the blinds to be gone. And from there the mage can win with one life. That's literally all it takes. You just have to live and get the reset and Dendario might have done it. It doesn't look super great for him but I believe Frostbolt's coming out since that's not a fireball. Maybe there's no more vanishes left. Looks like we have a small lag spike. We're back. Okay, nice. And we're just kiting it out. That Mithril Draggling is huge. This is all huge, are you? If the poly breaks. Yeah, that pet is going to start chunking the mage down. Oh, another poly. I do believe that might still be on the diminishing return. I don't know if that reset quite yet. Maybe a small blunder here from Dendario. He's back up to 50% life and really wants to slow this down. Bobca's probably Frost Reflector there. It looks like it misses though. The Frost Reflect came a bit late and the Frostbolt did not reflect. So Bobca's not going to be happy with that one. Nice little frostbite RNG here. Big shatter from the mage potentially coming out. Frostbolt lands. Bobca's so tanky though with all these potions. 40% mana left for Dendario. Bobca's trying to find a way to close the gap but he might just have to wait for another big cooldown to come back up. There's the grenade. Could be the opening Bobca's looking for but it looks like he still won't be able to close the gap and this is what we are talking about. The mage can turtle this out all day when the robe is out of vanishes and sprints with just that rank one Frostbolt. And the mage looks like he's doing just that hiding flawlessly here and slowly working down Bobca's HP bar. I mean, I want you to take this away, Zarya. You've got this dual knockdown that better than either of us. So you all you. We have the rank one Frostbolts coming from the mage and this is really to bait the frostbite procs. Rank one Frostbolt from the mage costs almost no mana but Bobca gets another vanish off of cooldown and this is what he was waiting for. Just tanking all the damage first aid coming through and if Bobca gets a lot of damage in this opener it could be lights out for Dendario. Full first aid coming out. Bobca's going back to full life here and that's all the work. The hard work Dendario's put in to slowly way to take him out is just reset here. Mage blinks. Bobca's just shooting the gun at this point and Dendario might not be tanky enough to outlast Bobca which is normally not what we see here in this matchup. Mana's at 17% for the mage and it's not very much so we're going to have to go for a sheep reset, build some of that mana back and then start from ground zero to take out Bobca's life slowly but surely. Once again we want this rank one Frostbolts to proc the frostbite. The frostbite is that ranged stun 15% Nova to 15% chance to Nova the Rogue. Once that Nova comes out that's when you go for a max rank frostbolt to go for a Shatter combo and that's the strategy Dendario's looking for. Another Nade comes out. Bobca's closing the gap just a little bit here. In this expansion of course, no shadow step, no way to close the gap besides those vanishes or those sprints. So Bobca's just playing the waiting game using potions on cooldown pretending he's a healer. Dendario's laughing Bobca's just waiting on those cooldowns. Once he gets another vanish or another sprint or another Nade, then that's when he's going to try to burst down the Rogue. There's the blind. So Dendario let Bobca to get a little too close. Blind comes out in first aid. I must say I think Bobca is pretty advantaged here. Dendario's playing well but Bobca doesn't look like he's backing down. He's keeping his life totals up pretty high here. Goes for the sap on the mage. The sap heartbeat breaks. Fab sprint but he gets the Nova first on the sap and he just gets the sheep and reset the Fab. That's so unlucky for Bobca. I mean there's a lot of RNG here with these like these sheep breaks and these heart beats when it comes to the polys, the saps and each of these guys is either spamming Nova or spamming stealth. Here it goes. There's a heartbeat on the poly. He doesn't get the stealth off. Did he CS it? I didn't even get it on that time. Okay. Alright, well I mean how do you even wither down this health? Bobca got so unlucky there with that RNG but at the same time. How do you kill this with all of these resists and all of the you just can't kill them and he's running. This is brutal. I mean Bobca's got no buttons left. He's got no cooldowns and Dardario is just sitting here trying to kill this raid bot. Look at that. It's a shatter and it didn't move his health. There's another frost bolt. The guy's not even slow. Did he rest opot? I don't know. He's going to just he's trying to get some frost bolts, trying to get damaged and trying to keep him slow, keeping his distance. It's an actual raid boss just waddling that he cannot hurt. There's the Nova. Now let me be the first to say this is a different experience than we normally see here. Such great gear there on to Bobca with that dark mantle on the double sore. But normally this looks different, right? Normally Bobca would just be getting owned here and like you're saying Soda, big shatter combo comes out. He goes from like 90% to 80 and Bobca's just tanking it. It's just walking towards him. Big cooldown from Bobca. Frostbite frost on the couch. There's the cold blood. Mario's tanking it, but look at his mana. He's almost doomed. He's got nothing left. He needs to manage him. He needs to mana pot. He needs to do something because he cannot hurt this guy. Bobca's strategy he can almost just win with nades and his bow. Bobca with their grenade. He was reset in the grenade multiple times too. Bobca's using like all of his items on cooldown for just max HPS and DPS from range like using tubers on cooldown. Oh frost resist pot and advantage coming out. Oh great. Nade there from Dendario. Bobca's getting shit on. That is such a bad oh that's so bad dude. Dendario's playing very well. I'm very impressed. Having said that I would say Bobca might be in the lead here to be honest. What a manna. The guy's wanting. He can't even slow him anymore. He has no mana. That's what I'm saying. He needs his mana potion. He needs to manage him. He's kiting forward. He's trying to get some distance. There's the gouge. There's the first aid. Dendario has to have a cooldown here or he's dead. He needs something. There it is. He gets something. I don't know what he drank but he got mana back. The rogue is half HP. This is when he goes for the kill. Bobca has no vanishes. He's got a whole lot of fucking nothing. So this is when he needs to take that half HP piece of shit down. Yeah we kind of need like an evocate from Dendario or something like that. Bobca's still half life and Dendario's just tapped. Like Bobca's passive life regen. It's just a bandage and a pot every. Bandage every pot every two minutes. You know we have tubers and like his passive read like Bobcook could almost just sit at range and use his gun and shoot down Dendario with nades. There's another mana pot though. You're right. There's a resist on cone. He gets gouge because of it. There's the kidney. He's trying to stick the blink. Doesn't actually blink. That was pretty smart. Oh and there it is. Late blink. I love it. I mean is that enough mana? Oh there's ego. Two ticks. He just wants six. Oh ice line. Looks it. Beautifully played. So blocking the blind there to stay aggressive is just beautiful play there from Dendario. He knows this match up doing very well. There's another shatter combo with Frostbull. This could be the damage Dendario's been waiting for. Little tuber coming out from Bobca. He's back up to 40% life. But look how much mana he has. Plus the name coming out. Big shatter. Bobca could go down 4% he got as Dendario. Finally taking down the raid boss of Bobca. That was really well played. A battle of attrition man. That was an insane duel man. The way that Dendario was able to go out and to be able to kite him and Bobca being able to rotate his heals and his different consumables with the tubers with the health pots, bandages, everything I mean that was impressive. I mean to be able to survive that to begin with but man that's sometimes some duels, some matchups will just go really long and you just wait for the next person to make a mistake. PS hero I think there's a handful of other really solid duels going on. And while we're jumping into that just to clarify with these rounds guys we have that round 1 and instead you go like 1 and 0 in that first round. That's great. When you moved around 2. Oh here we are. We have PS hero versus a warlock. It's an SLSL warlock. PS hero looks like he's doing great full life. Warlock is in that kidney shot fear being casted. Comma points being built up here. We have that second sacrifice available and it is used. Yones though on the back foot fear trying to fake out but he's not faking that kick. He does fit. Finally fake the kick comes out instead. Arcane bomb looks like it's going to be channeled here. Finally we get to see a good Arcane bomb resist unfortunately. Nice big fear coming out. But he resisted fear. Oh no. This warlock is just getting plobbered. Kidney shot comes out. PS hero looking like an absolute pro here in this situation. Yones what are you going to do? Lip into the howlotary range. Oh not that range. That was so close. I played there from Yones. He goes with the first aid reset into the fear. Now he's just got to make sure PS hero doesn't get this restelf and make sure that PS hero doesn't get that full reset. Yones looking for reset himself. Another voidwalker coming out. Well played. There's a soul link. Yeah he's got to get this kite out. Don't let him get back. Oh no. I mean PS hero. Just get I love that. I love the gouge on the voidwalker. Get the first aid ticks off. You just got to get the first aid. There's the coil. He's going to get a fear here. PS heroes. I don't know how many he's got will of forsaken still. He really needs to wither this warlock down because the longer it goes on, the more easy it is to get him off and that's in the warlock's favor. There's the fear he's got no will for. He's got no trinket. The warlock is riding him down. PS hero can't do any damage. I think he healthstone. He's going for a grenade with the hell out of it. Trying to get some dots up. Trying to get an emulate, but he doesn't want to cast it. He just wants to run and take the free damage. PS hero trying to throw a grenade to close distance. He misses. Double miss. Warlock life tapping. He threw in a wand. He's min-maxing what he can. Trying to get a fear. PS hero can't stop it. He eats the fear. That might be it. Yeah. That's a huge, huge separation there. If PS hero can't close this gap, there's nothing he can do. Kineshot comes out on the pet. Shadowbolt. Not being quite casted. PS hero 30% life. Warlock. Pop that shadow burn. More dots coming through. There's the full blind, but the dots are still ticking. That warlock. Yeah. PS hero is really on the back field. There's the evasion for the pet damage coming out, but how are you going to finish off this warlock? Sacrifice still available. Fear of being fake casted. There's the sacrifice. Tons of dot damage coming in through. I think Jonas can maybe finish it off. The bandage only is going to be one tick. Yeah. That corruption. Oh, it's going to be close. There's a lip and a drain life. Fear of being casted. If that lands, it's all but over. Finish in the clutch. Sheepshot. PS hero. Damage. Oh my gosh. Take him out. It's not over. What the fuck? How are they not dead? Oh, that's it. I know. PS hero. PS hero one man. Who won? No way. I think PS hero one. How are they not dead at the end? The warlock popped a flask. Danny, was that a flask? Or did we see something else whenever his health went up? Because the UI bugged out. I don't know. That was the closest duel of the day. That was insane. That means the sapper at the end. Yes. The sapper couldn't kill you. If the sapper killed him, they're done. They're out of the pool. That was so risky, dude. Freak out on someone who was dying permanently. Wow. That was a great duel. And the fact that PS hero won that without even being at his desk, we went and we switched to his POV at the end there. I was trying. Dude, it was incredible. This guy wasn't even trying. Oh, we got bean. I'll go after this. I'll go after this. This could be a grand finals game or like a semi-final game. Like these are some of the two favorites. I thought Snuts was going to win. You said bean could win, right? This could literally be like a grand finals match here. As fan said, he wants bean to win. We know bean can't win. I want bean to win. I do think Hunter is really strong in this tournament. But I mean, Snuts is one of the top players in all the while. I mean, he's armed to the tee. I mean, just look at his gear. I mean, he has literally everything. People were going to be a great duel, though. I do agree with these are you. I think this is it. This is a big, big matchup that we have coming up. I'm just going to say a lot of people are talking to Snuts about different matchups. Apparently Hunter is one of the ones he is a bit nervous about. He's like, oh, yeah, I can beat that. I can beat that. But he is a bit nervous into Hunter. Looks like bean is going to start off with some CC onto Snuts with the Gnomish goblin helmet here and get distance onto Snuts. I wonder if bean's going to opt in for a managerian strategy or kind of just go toe-to-toe with the damage. Wow. Looks like bean's pet is already dangerously low here from Snuts. It's like half HP from one curse. Looks like Snuts going for a pet kill before killing bean. Going for the long game here. Viper Sting coming out. Tidal Charm being used from Snuts. And the pet from bean is almost dead already. Drained life coming out. Pet is dead. Now Snuts has that Viper Sting. Let's see if he has elixirs to get that off. Bean on the back foot with those wing clips. Scatter feigned death into the trap. Might be eaten by the pet, but no, almost. That would have been awesome. Pet in hot pursuit here for bean. Bean taking a lot of pressure down to 30%. Man, I would say Snuts is in the lead so far. Bean's getting... I mean, there's another Viper. He's going to get a free tick because he can't cleanse it while you're frozen, but he goes... He cleanses it right before he gets another tick. Again, bean's just trying to keep that distance. He's trying to line up a grenade here. Snuts is trying to dodge it. Let's see if he gets it. He does dodge it. Hellfondle on the pet. Very smart. Now the pet's out of range. And this is not a Makara duel. It's a normal duel, so the range is a bit shorter. He's drain lifeing the Viper Sting, the pet's mana. Interesting. So Bean is going for the Viper Sting Strap, but he's losing the mana battle. Snuts has such a mana advantage that I don't know if it's going to work for Bean. Bean, using the medicine pouch. Going to heal him up slowly, but surely Snuts playing the long game. Instantly uses the Elixir on the Viper Sting. Really well played from Snuts. Hellfondle coming out. Bean... Oh, I don't know how you're going to win this one, buddy. First aid coming out from Snuts. The pet is in hot pursuit. Looks like Bean's going to try to go for a full reset, maybe resummon the pet, but he's at the edge of the duel arena already. I think Snuts might still get a death coil. Snuts has so much in his back pocket. I don't know how Bean's is going to do this. There's two dots coming out. Snuts is patient. He's a veteran. He knows not to push in over aggressive. He doesn't need to. The dots are taking him down. He knows the only way to lose this is getting over aggressive in pushing in. Just dotting him and letting the dots do the work is all Snuts needs to do here. Bean wants to get rid of this pet. He wants to feign trap this Warlock Snuts so he can just eat and drink over and over. But Snuts knows this. He knows how important it is to keep that pet alive. And even if Bean does manage to kill it, Snuts will resummon it before he can get the scatter trap off. And so in this situation, I don't know what Bean can do. That is his win condition, but Snuts won't let it happen. Snuts still has the sacrifice pet if he needs a Feldom sacrifice. Another pet. Snuts has so many consumables being on the back foot 20% life. I don't see how it's going to happen. Snuts is just such a mastermind when it comes to dueling. Bean is just kiting it out doing what he can. But I think the agony and the emulate will eventually take him out. One more tick. Vipers through Snuts. Insta elixir of poison resists on the Vipers sting and takes out Bean, one of the biggest games we've seen yet today. Are we looking at Sony here? Oh no Sony versus Warlock. Here he goes. He's buffed up. He's swapping here and he was a little low from the stamina swap. But yeah, the healing from the diamond set will probably more than make up for that. Dots taking Sony down. Sony's connecting here. Big kick lands on to Madnox. There's a potion being used. Sony kills the pet in one slap. So much damage coming out here. Sony does a big mortal strike coming out. Look at the damages chunking down the Warlock. To void walker with the Feldom. He can sacrifice it. But what is that going to do? He's got to sacrifice before the execute comes through Madnox. You got to do it. Hellstone into the mortal strike though. So it's not going to be that big of a heal. Sony's all over him. He's immune to fear for the time being as well. There's the intercept. Three seconds done coming out Madnox. Finally goes for that stop there. Full fear coming out. Arcane bomb canceled. Well played there for Madnox on the reset. He's got to get another pet. Sony 100% life. Absolute beast. Absolute tank of a player here. Going to battle stands to get that charge off. There it is. There we go. There's a mount off. Another void walker. So Madnox will be able to live for a little bit. But man Sony's damage is unrelenting. They're going pretty max range here. Epic mount too to point out. Jesus. There's the helmet but there's the berserker range. He's just sitting over 20% the whole time. There's the execute. He's not dead yet. Is he dead? He's dead. Warriors might be kind of the dark chorus in here. Warriors traditionally in dueling tournaments don't do very well. But traditionally phaps are banned and a lot of these items are banned. Sony just crushed that warlock. Yeah. And someone was talking to Snots about what he's most afraid of and he said warrior. You have to play the meta of the tournament, right? Hold on. Okay. Is this road versus Druid? Oh, I love this. Okay. The Druid the Druid. His name is weird. We can't get it on the UI, which is annoying, but he's got to get away. He's got to get CC, but Pierce hero is going to have so many root breaks that it's not even worth going for. It's better to play the game around sprint and just try and outrun the rogue. He's not doing it, though. He's out of form. He's gouged. He's going to be a big kidney. He's going to have to trinket this or he's screwed or blind as well. He's just going to keep resetting him. You can't abolish it when you're gouged. Fairy fire is falling off. That's a misplay. You got to spam it. It lasts like 50 seconds, but there's so much CC from the rogue. It's a refairy right away. That's nice. Okay. Pierce hero messes up, doesn't get the stealth off. There's the bash landing. He gets a big reach bash there into a root. He's going to have another break for it, though. You can't be going for roots. There's no point. He has a break for every single one. He needs to play around the sprint. I don't know if he used his medicine pouch, but this he has to just get away from the rogue. Pierce hero is so tanky, man. Like even if he does get away for a bit, Pierce hero is just topped off. He abolishes the blind. He abolishes blind there, but Pierce hero coming in with a kidney knowing that it's about to break. There's the free action potion. He's running away. There's the root. Pierce hero actually has no breaks for it now. I guess we take that. He also has no sprints. Now, this is the point of the duel where I feel like the druid can win, but I don't know if the druid can do enough damage with mana. You saw the issue with mages. As a druid, it's even harder. With all of these arcane absorptions, these restoration pods, there's a good gap closer. He got a refairy fire, so he doesn't get a restyle. That was really good by Laxia playing really well here. And just to clarify, this is the druid build that you would probably run, Soda. I think so, yes. This is what I would want to run. It's like a war of attrition. You're trying to kite it out, moonfire, insects swarm and just outlast. He bareforms the cheap. Goes for the kidney. He's still in bareform. It's good. He's reducing all this damage. Pierce hero is just dumping stuff into him. But Laxia, there's another bash landing on Pierce hero. There's the dragon. There's the root. It resists. Which is awful. Oh, we're about to get a UI update here. Massive copy paste coming in from the app. Okay, so here we go. This druid is umus fuck. Like I said, Pierce hero's full mana. It's going to be so hard to kill this guy. Even though he's got him in the spot, a druid usually wins here. But with this, there's the helmet. Maybe he can innovate. Maybe he can drink. He needs full mana to kill this guy and the rogue needs no cooldowns. Seems very similar to the rogue versus mage. It's like it's a mana bar versus the health bar. And if you don't have enough mana to kill the rogue, no matter how well you're kiting, if you don't have the damage to kill him, he's just going to keep running at you forever. And then the cooldowns will rotate back up. There'll be another sprint, another blind, another vanish. Especially in this tournament too with all the different consumes they can use. We've seen how tanky the rogues are. Okay, this druid is playing feral charge. He's actually pretty deep into feral. I would not have played that. I'd get deeper into balance for better damage and more damage. It's really good for survivability, but his mana is clearly going to start lacking here. He needs to re-fairy. He could get gouged into a vanish re-stealth or whatever. He needs to re-fairy. Get that back up. It's falling off. There it is. It resisted once. Nice. Yeah, these magic resist potions and what not. Just screw over druids so hard. Trap, free action potion. PS hero sticking all over Luxia here. Magic does instantly will of forsaken from PS hero. Kites coming out from Luxia. The mana is getting pretty close, but even if you do hit that gate, it gets really close. He's even getting more and more damage. Gap is closed once again for PS hero. That's the nature swiftness, and as I believe to top Luxia back off, PS hero is finally getting a little bit low 50% live just thorns and damage finally doing some work here. Luxia going to the full gouge. Gouch breaks from the rupture dot full kidney coming out PS hero connecting more and more damage. This is getting pretty close. Mana some mana back. He cannot take out all of this HP, but that's a good fairy. He can just drink here. He could also get his cast a root because he was eating too. I don't think Luxia has a tick. Did he get a tick? I don't look like it. There's a feral charge. Luxia is completely doomed. He is opting to go in with bear form and kill him here. This is it. He's got no mana left. Maybe he has mana pots, but if he's going, his last bit of mana he used on bear. He's just sitting in bear. He bashed. He's mauling. He's trying to just auto melee attack this guy down. He has no fairy fire in feral and fairy fire is going to fall off here. He's going to blind. Restelth, eat, drink, bandage, whatever he wants to do. That was good awareness from PS0. Like the fairy fire was falling and that's when he sent the blind so we can get off that vanish. Hopefully he can get the vanish off after this kidney. See if it'll happen. Luxia is kind of all in man. His mana is so low. He's going to have to get out of range to be able to top himself back off. PS0 are doing a great job with the poison kites. Not sure if we have those elixirs here stocked up for Luxia to get rid of that crippling. You can't use it in bear form. It shifts you out and it costs 500 to go back in. He cannot spin the mana, but his NS is probably going to come off cooldown. He has button suppressed. There we go. He drinks some mana potions. His alpha's regened. He cannot get hit out of bear form. If he does, he's dead. He gets the rejuve running. He's getting hit. He needs to either get distance or get in bear. He's it back in bear form. There's the feral charge. There's the free action potion from PS0. He's going to try and run him down. He's got to travel for him. Keep distance. Just outrun him. He's got no movement. He's mana potting. He's got to get moonfire up, insects warm. He's got the dots rolling. He's got the range of running. Is that a swift mend? Yes. There it is. What an interesting. He is deep feral, deep rest over stone from a warlock. Nice. I mean, that fairy is falling off again though. He can't do it while bear. He should have done a fairy fire. He can't switch forms either. So yeah, you just kind of screwed. They're stuck. Yeah. Luxia is deep resto. He has swift. There's a root. Roots, fairy fire back up. No improved sprint. He's actually getting CC on this guy, which I mean, the duel lasts so long, I guess you will eventually got it. You know, for a drink there. Yeah. I wonder what the timer is on innervate because I mean, man, if Luxia can get some mana, he'll be able to finish him off. It seems like there's another insects warm at resist moonfire. And Luxia is cutting it out. If he gets innervate and you drink at the same time, it basically gives you full mana instantly. Right. Yeah. And that's what he really needs to try and go for here. He's trying to get some bear for damage in, which looks great. It looks great for Luxia. Yeah. He has no mana for bear form. He's got no mana for bear form. He is going for the kill. He is staffing him. He's in. He's dropping whatever he has, I think. There's the innervate. He's getting mana back. What happened? What? The duel is over. Time out there. You're getting me. Oh, Luxia fled from the duel. Luxia fled. He had him. PS hero is dead right there. Why would you flee? Why would you flee? That is part of the tournament. And you have to have the wherewithal of knowing, hey, that thing is popping up in the middle of your screen. No, this druid is good enough. He should have the awareness of what's going on. Why would you flee? Represent, motherfucker. Why would you flee? You had it. Oh my gosh. He played extremely well. This is an S tier druid. He knows what's going on. He's honestly selling me on his spec, too. Seems like a really good spec versus rogues with that swift mend and that sustain. Basically, it's flag carry spec with a lot of intellect. I mean, what a disappointment. Yeah, man, the thing is with this tournament, like I was saying earlier is if you're competing, if you're a participant, you have to be paying attention to where the duel starts, where you're kiting to something pops up on your screen. It's annoying. Sometimes things happen and you get tunnel vision, but it's all a part of the game. It's just something you have to do. All right. We've got one more duel left. We're getting it brought up. Not sure who it's going to be. I want to see mages go against not rogues and warriors, just to see how it plays out. That's really what's going to screw them over is warlocks, priests, and so we'll see that tomorrow in the mot-garaz. We didn't get a good, as we can look at the other mages and check out their duels, but we didn't get a good look at how that plays out. So to pop in, you mentioned makaraw, and that's really why we're all here. All right. These duels have been fun to watch. These qualifiers have been fantastic, but we came here to see duels to the death. The final duel of today is going to be a rogue mirror match between showbeck and rascal, but they have both engaged in a gentleman's agreement where they've decided that it will be a makaraw duel to the death. Here we go. The winner makes it as the eighth seed in the finals tomorrow. The loser loses everything. How cool. Here's the juice. Here's the juice. This is it, dude. Final duel of the day, makaraw. This is it. This is a qualifier. Whoever wins, moves on. Whoever loses, their entire existence is meaningless. So they might as well be dead. So they're doing a makaraw as they walk out into the battlefield. Look at that. Look at that. That's rad. Magic shots of both of these players to agree to something like that. That's just cool sportsmanship. That's just exciting. I can't wait. One of these players will be dead shortly. I already know who's dead on my screen. I'm look at this gear diff. This is disgusting. This might be an execution. And this will be every single duel tomorrow will be a makaraw. Today, the whole point of today was to qualify to see who was even worthy. Of stepping into the arena tomorrow. Dual starting running in oil of emulation drink. He's trying to proc him out of stealth with it. That's pretty good. That was smart. It just I can't believe you didn't get him. There it goes. Showback is the opener on the Roscoe. There's the big sheep shot probably the gouge into the kitty to follow. She's real playing. It broke. So he doesn't get the kidney quite yet. That's a little unfortunate. Now they're both in stealth. Both both trying to make a tick tock. Both rogues have been instructed to move towards the dual flag when they're in stealth. So the rogues are trying to make their way there and show back. It's open our number to my man RP is what he wants to the cheap shot into the kidney. It's going to be all over so much damage connecting and lights out for Roscoe. Well not yet. Another bout. There it is. Roscoe. Good sport. Good sportsmanship here. Incredible job by Showback. Unbelievable finish. I love this guy. The qualifying round of the OTK Star Forge Mock Garot tournament. Unbelievable turnout today. People have been on the edge of their seats from start to finish and I cannot wait to see what the finalists do tomorrow. Tomorrow is going to be an absolute bloodbath. Every single duel is going to be a Mock Garot. Everybody but one player who competed today will be playing in their final duel. We're fighting their final duel tomorrow. It's crazy to think about. Only one character in the entire tournament will be alive tomorrow. Only one. Yes. It's going to be absolutely incredible. The start time tomorrow is going to get pushed to 12 noon. So start is going to be a little bit later than it was today. And yeah. I mean it's going to be good man. Zoryu. We'll see you tomorrow. Chance. We'll see you tomorrow. Thanks so much for coming on guys. This has been a phenomenal phenomenal event so far. GG's. Well done. GG's and thanks for having me guys. All the people that are participating. I know you're watching the stream. Good luck. Try to get some sleep tonight and see you tomorrow. Good luck guys. It all comes down to this. Hope you guys enjoyed it.
