championship I have to move over here okay uh yeah day one already was pretty intense I guess for everybody um in each respective way um and today we continue uh with three more rounds CC the top cut and for the CC rounds we have still a lot of players in the tournament right yeah I think um at the moment we are counting no shows so uh the judges are on checking who uh attended uh in time um but we are around 70 players left in the tournament for day two uh and yeah we’re really looking forward for day two as you said it was intense for everyone uh it was a long night but we really enjoyed it the atmosphere was great I think everyone um it was intense of course but everyone had a lot of uh fun playing so looking forward for uh today too of the national championship main event but that’s not all we have today yeah that’s right we also have a proquest uh proquest plus uh starting after the last three three rounds so only those who luckily uh will be part of the top eight uh will not have the chance to attend but everybody else will and um yeah that’s going to be a very great event besides the top cup then and we also have on demand events which were um yesterday for the first time really well uh taken on by um by the players right yeah right we we played a couple of uh on demand events uh also um we we played some booster drafts some Blitz events so yeah I think the players really enjoyed it just spent a couple of hours um beating each other and smashing some cards and many people did come in who were not registered for for Nationals more than ever before when we had an event here so there’s a tendency for people to show up and just attend the festival be part of it play a side event and yeah just meet up and gather and that’s a very good uh thing to see and yeah very good part of this I guess yeah okay I think I have to move yeah over there and uh guys enjoy the stream uh like you did yesterday and uh we’re looking forward to the final reals of the tournament and that’s the judge is calling okay we will head over to the casters to uh check the standings after round nine hello good morning and welcome back to day two of Flesh and Blood German Nationals uh I’m Dylan also known as G guardian toome and with me is Alex also known as Tales of Alex also known as fabled academy uh and we are kicking off today with our players meeting right now and then shortly after we will begin with three rounds of CC and then a Top Cut to top eight so you I heard you you’re always out there mingling with the people with the players you know like all of them it’s crazy it’s like is there a Fab player you don’t know in Germany yeah yeah yeah for sure for sure for sure but um I heard that you you were able to track down a a first round for us yeah yeah that’s true yeah at first also um good morning from my side I’m really stoked for today this is kind of the big day for Nationals I think and um also I I remember when we rode here it’s kind of part the Mist veale weather today here in Germany it’s true it’s very rainy yeah it’s crazy cuz yesterday was so hot yeah and then all of a sudden a storm rolled in when we were out to dinner last night oh my gosh we were out we went out to to a burger place to watch the the German soccer team play in the the Euro Cup and so much rain came all at once that the everybody that was sitting on the edges of of the umbrellas at our restaurant had to move in because their food was getting soaked from one second to the other it was crazy it was instant um and it’s just been cold since then so yeah but thankfully oh my gosh it was brutal yesterday yeah yeah um so who’s our first round we have we know one at least one yeah that’s right yeah I I have one um one player that I’m really happy to see at uh the first place at the moment after top nine uh after the first nine rounds that we played yesterday and that’s yonas yonas stok MH um which is one of the first people I actually got to know in Flesh and Blood oh yeah so I’m really happy for him uh I know he puts a lot of effort into playing Flesh and Blood 2 traveling the world playing the big tournaments and um yeah so I’m really happy for him and I asked him if he is actually up to doing the feature match for the next round then we will see and uh yeah he said he’s up to so we are just waiting for um the pairings and to see if his opponent also is up to it sure sure um then on the second place we have bino noting and I’m also happy for him that he was able to yeah yeah fast forward into his amazing run in this tournament even though having some trouble uh with one of the uh drafts with the last draft oh did he and yeah okay mhm yeah that was kind of a bummer um yeah it was was really a bad situation but uh it got handled I think he’s happy about it now too and um yeah let’s see how he is doing in the first few rounds and he is the top Contender for top eight too yeah very cool and we also see ilas uh K oh God can you pronounce yeah caranas um he’s been kind of all over the place right I’ve seen him in protour streams I’ve seen him all over German streams of course um and I heard that you’re kind of pulling for him as well right yeah yeah that’s right he’s uh together with yonas um yonas and elas were the first two that I really got to know in in Minster back then for were welcome to wraith that was kind of funny my girlfriend was there too and we were yeah going through Minster City then after the tournament and getting some food together and um yeah yonas also visits has visited me at my place we were playing Flesh and Blood together so oh cool very cool very cool it’s all it’s like a big family here in Germany everybody knows each other and then yeah I mean perennial Allstar Kevin sener I mean this guy or oh I skipped one I’m sorry uh k antropov I actually don’t know um I don’t know this name I haven’t I haven’t seen him around yeah so um I have to admit I’m not sure who kuril is that’s one of the players I think that I don’t really know okay um one of the very few one of the but um yeah I I’m super stoked to see how kill is doing in the next rounds and if we see him on top again after yeah do c well I love seeing new names like new names is where you get to see you know people kind of show off their skill right it’s like cuz some people they just don’t for whatever reason they just don’t get a chance to go on stream you know it’s like oh I didn’t play one of the bigger names I don’t get to go on stream that’s totally fine so it’s cool to to see all these new names coming up but then we have perennial all-star Kevin Zanker this guy collects gold foils yeah without paying for them they gold foil collectors out there buying gold foils but this guy is unbelievable he is all over the place with the yeah with winning I mean really wellknown German player for sure yeah really welln really good really nice guy and a local too so um from around here the area so if if he actually gets to uh to be the national champion it’s a local win for him for sure very cool awesome and then yeah and then after that it’s you know it’s a lot of familiar names some not so familiar names one name that I’m kind of surprised not to see toward the top is um maximilan Klein famous from uh the the sigil play in the protor final exactly yeah yeah yeah maximilan has a history with the national championship too um I remember the first national championship which was held here in the exact same place that we are sitting in so it’s kind of reunion here and the first national championship Was Won by Christian hul and maximilan Klein was actually his opponent in the finals so maximilan uh yeah kind of kind of has maybe a curse with the finals I’m not sure but uh maybe we see him uh getting to top eight then and uh making his way he would be happy for sure yeah yeah I mean you know if you’re if you’re always um if you’re always close but not quite there you develop a chip on your shoulder that and maybe that chip is just what he needs cuz he’s an unbelievably nice guy so it’d be really cool to I mean he’s right there he’s super close yeah so it’s very possible that he could bubble right into top eight and I think a a funny a funny Nuance that saw also when looking at uh at the uh ELO um rankings yeah the ELO B uh at some point we have um Sebastian Kleiner who uh International Players also know from calling an he was the opponent in the finals for Pablo pinor there ah and um yeah we have Sebastian Kleiner and maximilan Klein so even though Sebastian isn’t really Kleiner than Max Million they they were two on the on the first and second place for Germany at some point so it’s kind of funny that is funny okay is there any other stories we want to tease out of this list of names here or should we maybe toss to producer heiner what do you think yeah ah boo and K are on the same team very cool so yeah that’s why I thought like kill is not really a new name to the community um but I think like it’s it comes down to a clash then between the value of vampires that’s like the team with yonas and elas MH also in Spain it’s maximilan Digman who’s on that team too and who has two national championships uh won and this year uh lost in the finals um but it will be a clash between these two teams as as it seems and then Kevin Sena comes in yeah too so yeah we see how that rolls out it’s really crazy when cuz the the the European community at large is pretty tight-knit like we all kind of know each other yeah um and a lot of the top players really know each other quite well and so it’s it’s cool to see like all of these little lines of of people knowing each other from various tournaments and competitions and stuff so yeah and I know like the the interesting part for me is now looking I was mentioning yesterday um when you walk around the venue you see the meeps team meeps is there can’t see them and it’s so amazing they look really good together in their jerseys and um yeah value vampires is behind on that point I have to say like maybe that’s uh that’s one of the key Parts in winning Flesh and Blood yeah value vampires really do I mean all the teams need a jersey Trio it’s it’s the calling card it’s the thing that everybody remembers them by I mean I’m going to remember team mes the purple the the purple and the green def yeah um they they’ve been really fun team to watch they’ve been really close and kind of walking around as one big group of people and it’s um yeah they’re supporting each other you could really see that also in a difficult situation with bino yeah and I think that makes the spirit in a team too yeah absolutely absolutely um one one funny thing I have to say like um when you look at the end of the list to some of the last places two of my friends are actually in the tournament still and they are battling each other they’re not battling for the top but uh they want to see just bragging right it’s like well hey I finished above you yeah it’s play 68 okay and then play 69 actually so that’s kind of funny Tim and Joe that’s that’s great I’m trying to look through some other names I mean we see vifam and he’s still not too far off yeah um we saw Bruno yesterday on stream yeah things can change like you like you say right yeah yeah it’s not that this uh the standings that we see now are the standings for top eight it’s just oh sure yeah that after round nine and the 10th round I think is starting soon um the the players are seating yeah I can see and um yeah it’s getting hotter oh we have really we have a value vampires uh match here yonas sto and ilas yeah karanes yeah that will be a very interesting match to watch I think because is also running Leva and as I said max diman is on the value of vampires team too and from what I’ve heard elas and TX run the same uh Lev list so maybe levia can hear uh piloted by elas um get to the top yeah man it’s always I mean it’s it’s always a shame for the players when they have to play against a teammate but it does make for some pretty good stream matching cuz it’s like ah yeah the drama I’m wondering if boino and killan comes up against each other yeah so yeah all right well let’s jump down to the table and we’ve got there there they are yep there they are laughing yeah laughing saying like Ah that’s always what players say when they meet each other right at the tournaments they say like o we rode so long to get here and now we get to play each other W yeah right but not in this case I guess it’s clear that at some point maybe meet up it’s happened to me it happened to me at a PQ where I was like oh I’m so excited to play all these new players and then I I paired into my local guys I’m like two of my local guys like what the come on um and did did you see yesterday on Twitter that uh I forget the name of the person on Twitter but she was competing in the Romanian Nationals and in in the first round she got paired against her husband oh really it’s like oh no oh my God yeah that was um that was quite sad I’m assuming that might not have made for such a great ride home that’s uh it’s interesting for me always to see when players are setting up their their board um what kind of sleeve do they have and uh it comes again and again that yeah these players have sleeves of one of their favorite Heroes and in this case yonas also has two uh different Heroes actually for his equipment and his main deck Lexi and chain two Heroes that are L and so they can uh yeah show their love for those Heroes that are not uh being played in CC anymore and maybe I’m just a little bit cynical but I do find that there’s a lot of communication in the sleeve Choice there it’s like uh you know why are you running Lexi sleeves well because I want to remind you of that time that you got absolutely bodied by Lexi why are you running black seves well because I don’t want you to know how many cards are left in my deck and the lights kind of screw at the you know there’s a there’s a lot of edges in the Small Things yeah exactly that’s true and we see like um yonas is running Zen and from I what I’ve understood I think he is running uh Talisha oh tesar Zen yeah I think so yeah and um so we know this Tech from UK Nationals already so maybe he will flip it and it will be Talisha yeah he can keep it a little bit hidden right because CU there there’s also some um there’s some talk that it what was the other Tech the um the Zephyr needles yes right yeah uh and you know that that Zephyr needle could be somewhere buried underneath those crouching Tigers it could be cockro of course yeah um or it could be this wild it’s so funny to see that card come back I remember um what’s the name of it again the sword talar yes right the name of the website tesar um it’s so funny because talar actually was one of my first like winning decks like the I I built a what was it it was a commoner talar Dash okay yeah and um and I played that at my locals and and I won wow and it was know TR man yeah commoner locals Man armory I won that that Rainbo foil promo yeah um that’s great but yeah so it’ll be um it’ll be interesting to see because go ahead sorry um I think like when when we uh started to look at this view with elas and yonas um elas was showing us something oh really and I think I’m not sure if you have seen it I know it because elas told me beforehand because he’s running I of fidia in in the L de and so he had a proxy that shows the bubble but says I of aidia on it oh I didn’t see that very interesting that’s interesting uh information to have I’m wondering what is the What is the play line with an i mhm I was thinking about it too and I was remembering that um at protour one um yeah Floren uh was running the Florence’s team actually I think was on starvo and they were running the aidia too and they were saying like they wanted to really dig for those combo pieces that they need to fuse with staro okay so they just tried to most aggressively catch sure catch the deck and um yeah Leah said like Leva is so powerful at the moment because uh she has so much CAD draw Advantage right she can play blood rush Bellow she can play outof war and when you have one of those cards together with I aidia then can you you can manipulate what kind of cards you are drawing and that’s that is true yeah that’s like the power behind uh this line absolutely well that actually makes me a little bit scared of this lvia I’m not going to lie that’s a that’s a that’s a very powerful playline because it’s true yeah I mean brutes do have that um they they do have that card advantage the spike card with blood Rush bow and then Lev just gets to take it one step further because even if she chooses the banish she’s actually fine with that she wants cards in banish right so there’s a lot of utility in that card um and yeah so it’ll be interesting I mean this is absolutely going to be a full race yeah I think so too you know it’s kind of interesting because the these two decks are a little bit similar in that way where they’re trying to fill their graveyard early so that they can get some payoffs oh yeah mhm right so we have Zen who’s filling his graveyard so that he can bonds cards and tutor out um the cards from his deck that he needs and ilas is looking or Lev is looking to fill her graveyard so that she can banish for blood debt CU you know once she gets going it’s like a it’s just a drag race yeah she’s she’s flying um and it’s like um when when you see Leva the history of her MH um of course there were always these hardcore fans like the LA cold with with E and um now yesterday I think on The Meta report we saw like six laas yeah and um levas making it consistency uh to the top um standings in some of the last bigger tournaments and that really shows like the deck is really evolving and she got some power cards over the last few sets and now she can really repeat compete at the top yeah Abol like yeah we we’re looking at a good couple metas now that she’s been a legit Contender she’s you know she’s always close and not quite there but um but yeah I mean it’s just it’s a matter of just waiting for the uh oh she’s got the Savage sash too yeah yeah yeah it’s kind of similar to KO only that she has like the two manable claws instead of the one mhm right all right there comes the fist bump so fist bump and now we see who goes first yeah and there’s Talisha flipped oh there it is yeah okay so that means that this is just like an absolute blistering aggro deck yeah because you really only have three chances to attack with tesar um and of course yonas is running the Traverse too in extended art that’s an amazing card to look at yes it is to play too it’s not only good looking at it yeah man I’m just thinking about this levia deck I’m thinking about its options okay so that’s going to create some crouching tigers in the banish Zone I think that’s predatory streak is the name of that card yeah it seems like it’s a blue one because he only gets one t all right mhm and I see an ancestral Harmony in his hand and but he’s just going to pass yeah setting up uh his Arsenal is is an advantage for him now and Leos gets to really make use of that second turn mhm with a Beast Within Recker romp and a Boneyard Marauder I believe and then a graveling growl yeah graveling growl on the far left y man I’m so happy I’m I’m watching Ethan’s channel to know all these names yeah you know you’re actually really excited as uh as Zen when you see that The recer Romp is what came out because you knew that you made the right choice not uh allowing ilas to cycle his hand so the bonard mar goes to grave yep which means that the graveling growl is the last card in hand so that’ll be our Arsenal and I can’t imagine a world where yonas blocks us yeah he’s thinking about that looking at his Arsenal again he has a spinning wheel kick in hand mhm can see that ancestral Harmony is in there too and yeah he just takes the damage six to the face to start it off here first Blood the grappling grow gets to Arsenal now yeah gring grow gets to Arsenal with two cards in banish so ilas isn’t quite there to get started oh my gosh you drew the eye yeah there the eye already yeah wow diabolic offering I think is another card that he drew mhm and it looked like a dread screamer as well and a barraging Beatdown yeah so he has not really the poent to put out the ey fidia as he is intended to with out of war or blood Rush bow yet but um of course in CC uh we will see a second CER yeah maybe yeah very possible so Spinning Wheel kick for four go again using those uh Dice from minimal cards bittering Thorns forgo again next card in the chain gets plus one I believe if it hits um or is it just I think it’s just if I think it’s just plus one so Savage s and and Boots committed already yeah that com chase the tail so elas is happily getting some blocks here for sure yeah not the best turn for Zen yet but at least he got some cards in the graveyard I think spinning whe also is it nice having it in the graveyard yeah um you’re you’re happy with it yeah it’s a combo card um you don’t mind banishing that out it’s also fine to just have in there it’s one of those cards that’s kind of like a chain Ender and but you’re also fine so you can play it basically anytime yeah um so we are seeing scaps being rolled here right hey Living Dangerously they both laughing [Laughter] yeah uh that’s a is that a swing big did I misread one of the cards so at least I can see from yona’s hand um he has some pretty powerful cards in there uh she can he can come with um Command and Conquer next turn even when he blocks a little bit mhm but at first we get to see The manable Claw on the Chain yep he’s got a arore in hand right yeah that’s right uh us already have an arore yeah an arvore and he’s got one transend card yeah I think it’s still the pot oh yeah okay yep yeah classic Aro just take the damage yeah go on there comes the swing B yep just a casual of 11 now Yas is making sure he gets the Tiger in his hand maybe make use of that out of war in the next turn yeah yeah I feel like you don’t throw the boots in front of that unless you’re probably ready to to try something MH um it does depend do you remember what his Arsenal was I’m not sure yeah I don’t remember either but if he’s got some kind of Arsenal Synergy with crouching Tigers I could see maybe an arvore banishing A cedc or he could also just arvore banish the was ancestral that’s right yeah so one of the combo pieces yeah maybe he gets a combo card and no no Whi yeah but he does have a way to transcend which he plays now because ancestral Harmony is a blue so when he plays a second blue he gets to transcend a Zen um and gain the resource off the chest piece the casaya man that’s then I have to say like ninjas are was were getting me into Flesh and Blood were the class cards that are really interesting for me and uh for me Zen is just amazing to see him that widely represented in the meta yeah it’s very interesting to see um how the direction that they were able to take ninja after F right like f and Zen are very well they have a very similar game plan with their super aggressive line but um but Zan is like a kind of a whole other animal yeah leas were were just like ah I take that ancestral Hony and put it in the grave but Jonas was making sure it stays on the field so out of can come in and say like no you get plus two yeah yep two command and conquers and damn that is a cold F out of I think yeah yonas is a cold foil arore but it gets plus two only from the aror true true yes but two command and conquers is like the last card you want to see on an ancestral Harmony and an Art of War Spanish I mean there’s not a lot you can even do here yeah yeah that’s a badge situation for yonas to be in and I think that is uh what we can see from his face to it’s not really what he wanted to see from the draw uh the out of were to get a second Command and Conquer in hand no but uh yeah now he just gets to to pop off and um at first search him yep combo I wonder what he’s actually going to try and combo with because that’s the thing I mean Zen has so much hand fixing with his tutor ability that he can you know tutor up a bonds um I actually well probably not I don’t think he has a gus wave in his hand yeah he’s going to chase the te okay that that makes sense um just try and get a couple of chain links wider Y and then probably ended on an arore I mean that’s like the downside with command and Conquer then when you draw too many of them with the wrong cards um like we see now yep it’s not really an advantage but um he can Arenal at least one of the command and conquers at the end of his turn yeah yep command and conqueror is an incredibly strong card um but in decks like these where you do want to draw very specific hand structures um they can clog up hands uh a very similar thing happens in fi where fi wants to run Command and Conquer because it’s such a high value card but then also you draw them on your AR of War turns and it’s like wow I could have really used a mounting anger here shouldn’t that be coming for two uh I think ancestral Harmony only gets plus one for the combo cards yeah yeah yeah it’s only for combo cards that’s right so elas is really frightened I think at the moment um because he doesn’t really know what is in yona’s hand and so he really think okay how wide is this turn going yeah what is that card called from everfest again that you pitched this round’s on me yeah this round’s on me mhm oh this is a wonderful bait yeah and now like when the wrong card ah yonas is really it’s a tough it’s a tough one now but this is this is it’s it’s a it’s a bummer for ilas because he thinks that this chain is going to go really wide but it pretty much ends hereas will be um a bit ened then yeah yeah because there’s no way I mean obviously he’s definitely going to have the other Command and Conquer yeah I mean at least the second Command and Conquer got banished from The scarling Flash and just imagine if the aspect body would have gotten vanished oh my God yeah or um man it was an unfortunate scouting flushback actually because it affected his turn actually not at all I believe yeah and that is uh the Mind Tricks that we see in Flesh and Blood all the time right MH um I mean yonas was committing his boots mhm they are gone now and elas also was committing his sculling flesh back now which is gone then afterwards five damage then the command and Conquer you see alas I heard it are you kidding me the classic German it’s like really do you need to end the combat champ with a command and Conquer brutal yeah and yonas is sitting there thinking like okay this isn’t as bad as I thought it yeah I mean like chat might be making fun of me right now CU I was like this is not going to be a very good turn but he did like 20 something damage so yeah it was it was really great to pick then chase the tail right because he can make use of the crouching Tigers effectively yeah man I’m still learning a little bit about Z and this is probably the first time I’ve really seen like I’ve paid incredibly close attention to super high level play then but that deck can just it can just scrape damage off the floor I mean it’s unbelievable elas is um leas is thinking now because he has he has a powerful hand too right he could I see a out of War I also see a blood Rush bow MH and damn it’s like the wrong turn to draw not the eye ofia was the last turn yeah it’s this this whole sequence has been quite misaligned for Alias because that that command and conqueror that’s the kind of card that it basically what it says is I get to have my turn again like if we’re looking at this in fighting game terms the the concept in fighting games is that each player is taking turns but there are abilities that that allow them to steal their turn back yeah and that’s effectively what commanda conquer does it says oh so you’re going to take a bunch of damage in order to keep a really strong hand well actually I’m going to force you to either block or lose your turn so I’m going to get to steal my turn back it’s just the ultimate Tempo stealer card and you can see it on ilias’s face it’s just this is It’s brutal I mean can he claw something out of losing his Arsenal because as levia you really you really do want to have enough cards well brutes in general you want to have enough cards for various effects like draw discard or banishing effects or um and elas is making defensive use of out of War we saw that on a stream yesterday too um it didn’t go well there but let’s see how it turns out this time yeah I think this deck is a little bit more set up for it because I think what he wants to do here is just yeah just just block it out block it out for eight and then hold on to I can’t remember what that last card oh it blood Rush bow hold on to that blood Rush bow I mean the I’m not sure at which alignment the um the I of aidia was in his pitch St now but maybe he can pitch the the blood rush Bellow mhm and then go for a second cycle yeah man it’s turn three and we’re already at 20 life we’re already halfway through life totals I mean damage does you know drop off over time so it’s I suppose it’s possible um and you can’t block out like when Zen really pops off and makes like 30 damage turns here Drew another arore right off the top that’s second arore man that’s not really this is uh a damn it this is uh yeah that’s tough I mean he doesn’t even have a bandish target with the arvore yeah because he has a a barraging beat down blood rush Bellow and an arvore like you just see it on his face it’s like what the hell am I even going to do here Ah that’s the curse of La isn’t it yeah I mean it’s the curse of just these these the the spike decks right these like these spiky turn decks where I mean it’s unlikely but you can draw two arvores in the same hand and it can screw you for turns and turns yeah I mean he just needs to stick to his plan right he said like he thinks Leva is the best deck yeah yeah and now he needs well now he punished for that or the way that you claw back out of a situation like this is you just have to take a couple of off turns so I would imagine I mean he’s just got to I think yonas is sniffing out this uh this fact that uh ilas basically can’t block jeez yeah that second art commander conquer it is that’s so that’s such a bad back foot to be in right yeah so then you need to commit everything here and lose that second out of War for a defensive turn yeah lose the second out of War PS the SEC uh the third one to the bottom and um still holding on to that blood rush Bellow you have to give up your um give up Your Arsenal in the graveling growl but you do get to Arsenal the uh blood rush Bellow and take one blood debt on the ilas side yeah he actually needed to banish the um Shadow R horror right the new card from the expansion slot yep so he’ll end up taking one blood de and then we go again and again yeah Yas was just asking like don’t you want to just give up yeah yeah teammate talk is uh like I said it’s it’s rough for the players but it’s really fun for the casters yeah let’s see and I don’t know if Yas actually said that we can’t hear what they’re saying yeah no we can’t hear what they’re saying but one can imagine given the smiles another Shadow Ro Horror in aah sand yeah we also have an art of war in the Zen hand and the um the B strike the blue strike yeah the B strike and you’s like man this is my this is just such a good turn let’s go poor ilas did you did you see his face when they AR he’s like of course of course you have that too he’s like again a cold fall out of four again the plus two man are you [ __ ] kidding me that’s like yeah brutal man this is just one of those games right it’s one of those those Fab games where all the cards just misalign like the It just seems like the the shuffling just it just didn’t quite work out where it’s like well of course my sink below is the next card down when you attack me with your crippling Crush of course the sync below is the next one not the previous one and or they align perfectly like in the finals of the last Pro Tour absolutely yeah that’s you know that’s how it goes it’s like the the perfect alignment versus the not perfect alignment i’ just like to call it the the heart of the cards the heart of the cards H yes you’re showing a little bit of your history Alex all right starting off with a spinning wheel kick for five buffed up by that Art of War and you were asking the question earlier about why you would run tesar yeah this is why you run tesar yeah he isn’t even intact with it yet yeah he’s got 12 damage just sitting on board whenever he’s you know feels like it sure just like he has my second Command and Conquer third yeah it’s the third one sry third command don’t you like this card as much as I do yeah third Commander conquer with a blood rush Bell in Arsenal yeah I mean elas choose to go the dark site this is his road now yeah you know it’s interesting because you’ve I’ve heard a lot of um professional players a lot of content creators talking about how Zen is sort of a feast your famine deck where it can it can look really amazing and sometimes it can look really bad um where it just you know it draws all the wrong cards it just can’t really ever get anything going no combos no art of wars etc etc but also I feel like from the Caster perspective like Zen has so many options to go into like we saw it like even on a turn where I thought like that’s like a really turn that you want to see especially but then turning it into these Chaser tail turns with ending on the command and Conquer that’s like yeah even don’t when you have the bonds line I mean like I think ilas might actually be a little bit upset now and I can understand because I would also be a little bit upset now yeah yonas is just taking his more stretch here making sure he’s ready for the next turn like y yep well math is for blockers as is the the common idiom so yonas just gets to kind of sit there and think about you know how else he would like to torture elas next turn um he’s like I had to swing big turn man that was so good and I thought like yeah yeah I came in for you remember that time when I came in for 11 11 no on hits looking to the chat mobach says that CNC at the end is just rude his face says it all yeah this is a really it it genuinely is like one of the toughest positions to be in because every card committed to block is just another turn you take off yeah it’s another blood debt taken it’s another another turn that you don’t get to threaten anything back yeah but life totals are so low at this point that it’s like you know I need a spike turn I need a power turn M um that’s the way that I can return Tempo I I know you were laughing about my second cycle thought but if elas actually gets to block consistently over the next turns and then he gets this one card mhm uh this one hand where he actually could pop off maybe that is a chance but it’s possible yeah I mean he’s at the moment if he’s committing most of his cards to block every turn he’s got nine turns to live yeah because of that one card in blood Deb so he’s going to have to he’s going to have to kick it off I mean you’re just praying for any amount of bricking which this is a pretty decent start this to me shows some it shows two things so he pitches a red card which either indicates that he has no resources in hand or it indicates that he has a transcend in hand because he can throw out two transcend cards to turn this into yet another brutal long combat chain yep so ilas is taking the four there comes the talar there comes the tesar so yeah tiger swipes pitched he actually got what he needed he bricked um two tiger swipes yeah just making sure he can block efficiently with that equipment so ilas is going big or going home he’s like ah come on like I I take the Apex too yeah yeah go to two and um and now you’re just praying that you draw like the most ridiculous yeah uh blood rush Bell turn he gets the might token right from the Apex um no no no he didn’t block with the six power card from hand oh yeah sure sorry yeah all right elas is like finally it’s my turn yeah pitching at least I get to play one time yeah I get to do my thing Deadwood rumbler and Pitch blood rush Bellow in the arena time to discard a card he’s like okay just just choose the wrong card please not Beast [Laughter] Within okay so that is a um oh Dre M no uh endless M endless m yeah so we’re going to draw two cards remembrance no ah second blood rush yeah okay that could that could be the turn that you were talking about could be yeah this could be the turn that we were hoping for sitting up in the chairs now I need to stretch myself now it’s like yet SK [Music] Lo ah another endless Mall yeah you don’t you don’t need those man just ow yeah you’re just hoping for um another blood rush did he draw a third blood rush oh my God and your just like what in the world are you the luckiest Lev player in the world right now after all of this this drama Filas is so happy like I I can just feel like he he’s just relieved yeah just like I get to yeah he’s like okay get rid of that C okay but just get me two two new cards we want go again that’s what we want all right well he has a dread screamer so he has minimum one card go again another swing big does he have another swing big yes oh okay he’s also got a Boneyard Marauder Deadwood rumbler so he’s got a blue in hand you’re definitely stoked about that does he have enough resources for like a claw claw dread screamer swing big I don’t believe so no so what about a Savage sash he could catch in the Savage sash now he probably will I would imagine yeah because when not now when then yeah absolutely yeah I’m not really sure if that’s yeah it’s yeah it’s do or die here I mean get one done yeah so Savage sash famously says um you destroy it and then all cards that have six or greater power cost one less that would it’s a fourth blood rush basically in a way I mean it doesn’t buff the damage but it effectively makes the power level is there mhm uh just like let me look at my graveyard first yeah how many misses are there there are quite a few right and yona’s just like damn like it was like so close yeah this was but this is like it is in Flesh and Blood mhm yeah we’ve been waiting for this turn yeah either you play Flesh and Blood or you’re studying math I think sometimes like you can be confident like when you are for a few turns that good into the game and then there’s this one turn where it comes down yep yep it’s all about it’s all about these Spike turns these um these turns where the deck kind of lines up so that you can push your damage over the you know the on rate value yeah you want us just making sure for us too that we remember that plus six from the blood rush yes plus six from the blood rush every Lev player on this planet is just praying now they really us you know I’ve always heard it’s it’s so funny because I’ve always heard that the the common wisdom for blood rush is that you would really not like like to do two in the same turn you would like to have a blood rush Bellow turn and then a blood rush Bellow turn and then a blood rush Bellow turn but in this situation it is just Absolut like it it needs to be the case yeah and one oh my gosh and then he rolls okay he rolls scab skins after the three blood Rush bow this guy really really likes to live dangerously oh my God so starting us off with the manable claw for nine go again yeah but it’s like it’s like that good for yonas that he has all of mostly all of his equipment still left to make sure he get now the bonus from the Traverse but then also making sure he gets enough block value in to keep his life total up absolutely yeah Traverse what a card what a crazy card it’s like a crown of Providence but you just get exactly the card you want this it’s wild you don’t even need to trade a card for it too you just grab it just give me that g yeah just give me that’s what the sentence is on the card yeah give me the chi give me the chi all right so four block committed from the equipment five coming through there’s the go again symbol yep there’s the go against symbol manable claw obviously get go again if a card has been discarded um and uh he’s ilas has discarded a couple of cards this turn so it would save to say that it has go again um it’s looking like Zen is going to be activated yeah that’s like Zen can be used offensive L but also defensively then wow this deck is really impressive and he’s getting the Zen State totem yeah sure and Zen State I don’t remember the text exactly let me look it up yeah pull up Zen there that’s so fitting that they are giving Zen the opportunity to play the Zen State yeah this enters the arena with a balance counter at the beginning of Your Action phase destroy this unless you remove a balance counter from it if you would be dealt damage prevent one of that damage so it’s basically a token that says Ward one yeah this has been a very exciting match it’s been a lot of hay makers back and forth just like huge swings at each other well mostly yonas and that but now this is like a Mike Tyson level uh Haymaker coming back from ilas he’s like look look at my graveyard but only without looking at it and pick one yes so this cards yeah it’s looking like he’s going to be attacking with Dread screamer yeah which we’ll have go again so it’s looking like the line that he’s taking is manal CLA dread screamer into um swing big into swing big yeah yeah just pick the wrong card elas makes sure to let Yas know that he’s not allowed to pick the wrong card yeah three arvores or three blood rush Bows Oh No One hard war is still in the deck yeah Judes are coming in and watching too because they can’t really they were trying to figure out a solution for how they could do random cards and then Alias was like whatever one yeah just piig one and what make a show of it ah okay hit okay whiff whff wow okay okay wow okay blood rush or blood dead is turned off for the turn that’s actually kind of a perfect situation right you want to hit two nons and you want two whips and one hit so 12 go again casual 12 yeah just a casual 12 go again so far we are at 21 life threatened this turn right yeah he was at 24 right yeah and yeah now he is taking the 12 going down to eight did he take all 12 yeah what happened to the Zen toen yeah that’s a good question and then swing B for yeah elas is making sure he asking the same question as yourself so he needs to prevent one right isn’t he yeah maybe I’m understanding Zen State wrong but isn’t Zen State preventing than one of the one of the damage yeah it should every time he’s still damage right yes mhm prevent one of that damage okay take 12 he he took 11 and then now with the swim for 14 so he’ll be taking 13 13 if yeah okay so now Zen tokens are crazy yeah I completely overlooked that yeah holy crap I didn’t even yeah thrown his whole hand in front of it almost his whole hand I forgot that he’s Z so he has actually five cards in hand but couple of two blocks I know descendant Gus wave for example is a two block going to one for one yeah man remember when I was like poor ilas I take it back this ended up uh working out just fine for him yeah match was elas just thinking about if he could have done one more damage with the other card uh um was it the Boneyard Marauder I don’t know well I don’t think that he could have gone with the Boneyard Marauder because uh it doesn’t have go again okay so he would have needed to do the dread screamer so that he could get into the swing big yeah and is elas oh he has an Amnesia in hand right yes he does yeah and it’s it’s pretty easy to block it out now I think here for elas mhm it is pretty easy it’s getting down to the skin now yeah yeah yeah this is like a could easily go either way that is so exciting about Flesh and Blood right like it’s so these turns That Swing so much mhm and then you say like o this one it’s just looks like it is and then the other players able to come back that is the feeling I think that every player loves in flesh and blood that it goes down to to the really like at the end the small life totals and huge turns in between where you’re feeling great and up there but then there’s always a chance yep there’s because the the structure of flesh and blood is really interesting right where the the initial plan is to take the tempo push life totals down and then um and when the life totals are down you’re now in a position which you can trade your life total in order to maintain Tempo and so there’s kind of a innate catchup mechanic built into FL into Flesh and Blood where as as your life total dwindles your opponent’s um life total also must dwindle as a result of the um as a result of the tempo swings um so prop Joo in the chat says he could have done nine more damage if it was a blue talking about the blood rush blow turn and he would have just straight up won the game yeah so if the um if the Boneyard Marauder had been a blue he could have done one more manable claw and there’s no chance Jonas wins that games over if that’s a blue okay yeah and I I thought actually thatas could block this out but no no because tesar attacking for four yeah um and it is of course the the Zen actually just has the natural descend of gust wave into bonds um brutal brutal Heartbreaker match I mean it was awesome yeah this was a crazy game it’s it was such an amazing game to watch yeah um especially yonas against elas yeah and yeah let’s see if they are up to doing an interview now so I am so excited I I really hope that they are down to do an interview because it will be hilarious to hear what they have to say all right I will go down okay and then see you in a second hopefully all right [Music] am I still live oh I’m still live oh I didn’t know that I’m so sorry so Alex looks like he’s now talking to ilas I believe off camera yeah he is Let’s uh let’s look to the chat see if anybody has any thoughts about that last game scalling fleshbag says GG yeah that six blocking equipment scalling flushback is a really interesting point to make toward the end of that game because as Zen you actually don’t really mind trading that equipment in like it has a lot of the uh casaya is is a really good piece of equipment but toward the end of the game it’s very unlikely you’re going to end up being able to use that resource um so you don’t mind trading that in to keep like a you know it’s like a Run Blade block is how I would describe it where run blades they have you know such crazy uh pop off turns that they can just kind of eye it they can look at the at the board State and think okay this is my dump all my equipment into this block turn um and then I’m just going to come right back at you um so that uh that was a that was a crazy end of the game but it did look pretty bad basically from card one like descendant Gus wave coming down almost guarantees the loss um because there’s just so many ways that Zen can figure out how to turn that into something terrible for the opponent uh yeah it it looked pretty Oh I thought we were going to me I thought we were going to Alex um yeah Alex isn’t here he’s uh he’s still setting up that interview but we’re going to see very soon what the players thought of that uh of that last match um so we here on stage with those two amazing players that crazy game was amazing yonas elas congratulations to the win yonas but also this amazing game and this is crazy just tell us a little bit about how you felt during the game I think it was very interesting game um like really horrendous start from the Leva and then these cnc’s came really clutch and then like I think I took some weird lines that look weird like out of War block from Arsenal because I realized that my my out to win the game is very very slim and that’s what playing Lev is about like you want to find the super unlikely out and I almost found it with the triple blood rush if I have a one cost there instead of the two cost and I roll the four I win if I have another blue win but yeah I mean usually I lose those so I got like really lucky in order to get there I mean really unlucky in the early game to be in the desperate spot then really lucky to have a chance at an out and then not quite lucky enough to actually win that’s how yeah that’s basically the summary yonas why are you so frightened about his deck yeah I mean I have been playing against him a lot so I know what this deck is capable of and it can do some crazy stuff I think this might have been one of the most crazy setups I have ever seen because you usually can’t chain multiple blood rush because you have to B them off the top that’s not a thing that happens usually but um you might discard one right with the other so it’s like yeah you can’t you can’t even like unless and you can’t pitch s in Lea because the deck is too slow so it’s nothing that it only happens if you perfectly have them set up on top of the deck and draw them one after the other so really crazy I was really afraid that the last turn like one damage more and I don’t think I I would at least not have won the next turn and then it might have gone either way yeah and yeah the moment The Moment I Saw My My Hand the turn before was like four cut hand dealing nine nine damage only it was like this is getting kind of sketchy like if he has it now and he actually gets there I might really lose this game after all that happens so yeah I was nervous for sure yeah I could see that for sure but uh now going into the next round you’re still the first place then I think and how confident are you for the next round um I mean first of all I’m very happy that I’m completely locked for top eight now so that’s like so personally one of my biggest achievements in this game so far so it’s the main thing that matters so I think I mean I will still play the next rounds with um focus and try and win them of course but like the next two rounds are still like some pressure falling off I still want to maintain the top seat going to um going into top eight that’s is number one seed but it’s still like the main goal for today for me personally was to win one of these three games I accomplished that in the first game already so I’m very happy right now so what does it mean for you leas I I need to win a game today you know and I mean I’d rather win two deciding the coin flip in top eight is Meaningful if I win two I should be you know High seat enough to decide the first role so yeah I need to win I let’s just win games winning is always better than losing so it’s not really worth to like you know think about like I need to win a game I better win two that’s all that happens from me so what unlucky occasions can happen that you don’t win one of those next I’m playing against good players [ __ ] can go down you know it’s just what happens like you saw my that’s that’s L for you like the highs and the lows like my early game hands were not good not good enough I’m not going to lose I’m not going to win games with these hands so needs to be better so max is also praying for right now is that true yeah yeah he is yeah all right so are there any last words that you want to have for the Stream um yeah sure uh shout out to the value vampires we’re both members you know and we’re doing great at German Nationals as we always do and yeah yeah I mean it’s not like my success is just it’s not only my own accomplishments like a lot of the preparation was done as a teamwork I stole his draft strategies and uh executed them slightly less and Dior help me a lot with he basically built most of the list and then I helped him a little bit with some things added some I have one card different from him now but the main core of this list was built by him and it has worked out amazingly so far so also shout out to Max stman and Lain nius who helped me build the laia deck like we’re basically the the triplet of Doom the cultists that build the deck final final shout outs to the Brookman Discord and all my friends there who are continuing to have me have a good time in this game Shou everyone good to see you here and best of luck for the next round [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] welcome back to round number 11 so two more CC rounds um we are just about to take a look at the standings going into round 11 and we see yonas boino ilas uh K Kevin sanker Tom tidex Yan hendrik bfor and and Sebastian kleina so there’s still a lot to play for nothing set in stone yet as ilas said in his interview he just needs to win a game to to make it into top eight and two to um get to make a decision on who uh who starts in top eight so there’s a there’s still a lot to play for going into these finaly rounds really everything to play for um soon as Alex gets back we can uh talk a little bit about what some of the stories are coming up into this um and we see you know a couple players down at the you know the six- win area ly Tran Alexander hman um a lot of these guys are really really good players and still have quite a good chance to to come out with the Nationals hey welcome back Alex um hey man to make a good sing at this uh German Nationals 2024 so you were out there you were uh chatting with people yeah I was uh was making sure we are getting another feature match and um I think this one will be pretty interesting uh yeah I’d say so I see a dash iio down there yeah and uh I thought like this this matchup we didn’t really see and I think dashio piloted by Thomas is the only dashio that we have in the meta here at German Nationals this year really very interesting I’m going to have some fun with this match I can tell you that I love dashio looking at the top yeah the Thrive thing yeah the Thrive thing absolutely uh shout out to fishy shout out to Sasha um but yeah dashio is a very interesting hero coming into this uh into this particular meta game because dashio is sort of a I said that Zen and and levia can be feaser famine in in the game play yeah Dash is kind of a feaser famine from a meta perspective um she can be a very bad blocking deck so she can do really poorly against like really nasty Ranger on hits for example but she has some of the highest damage potential of any hero if she can line up her hands to do crazy stuff I mean with six counters on um symbiosis shot uh a high octane generating action points I mean it it’s just absurd the amount of damage that this character can do so it’s good to see it’s good to see she always gets counted out but we’re just uh setting up the stream now getting all the names correct getting all the heroes correct and uh on the other side of course we have new the new hero from MST new is new producer Hiner is running around the room making sure things are working correctly so we have uh Thomas pran on Das iio mhm um I know Thomas for quite a long time in Flesh and Blood now MH um also having a really good player here on the table and he’s facing off against Sebastian Kleiner which you already said he’s on new mhm and Sebastian is an assassin player all in all oh yeah yeah he um he was the one that faced off Pablo Pinto um an ANB calling okay and he was playing ooui there couldn’t really crack the fridge of Kos Olden yeah but uh let’s see how this matchup goes now uh for Sebastian it’s interesting that he plays new then with being such a you know through and through assassin player because there’s a lot of um not contention but there’s a lot of discussion going around on who is the better assassin right now do you want to be playing AI or do you want to be playing new because they while they do share a lot of the same card they do have some like a fundamentally different game plan um well not a fundamentally different game plan it’s still assassin stuff you’re still trying to damned if you do damned if you don’t situation creating um but yeah this uh this new deck is is very interesting it the thing about the new though especially in the dash iio matchup is there’s not a lot of things to do yeah with that ability of hers because Dash IO is not really using a lot of impactful Blues you know nothing like a guardian yeah um and in fact a lot of her blues are items so um it’ll be interesting to see how this plays because on the other side dashio is not a particularly good blocking deck so on hits or free reain here and it’s going to be I mean from the dashio perspective it’s definitely a full race is I’m going to race you to the bottom um and Das I think um talking about the The Meta game at Nationals it’s interesting that the only Dasio player Thomas was able to go this far in the tournament mhm and that he’s the only deio player actually um so deio is not really popular amongst the German players M but uh she had quite some success on the international national season this this year yeah yeah she’s uh she she’s one of those Decks that always gets counted out like I said like um I remember right when she came out and it looked like you know Heroes weren’t going to make a huge impact on the meta and then that dashio just 130 runs straight to the uh straight to finals I believe that was in Australia right um I think that was like a calling in Melbourne or something and yeah she she sort of waxes and wins but there we go we got the fist bump so the round is live yeah we’ve got Mage Master boots for Dasio okay there’s three boot options or no two there’s two boot options for Dasio there’s Mage Master boots and there are the Achilles accelerator and it’s really hard to determine which one you want to take um because they while they do very similar things they can be uh quite different in practice because Achilles accelerator requires the Boost in order for um the action point to be gained and that is um it is relevant because a lot of the time in Dasio um you you’re looking at the top of your deck and it is Toma fandel and you can’t boost you have a Toma Fel in hand or an arsenal and then you have a Toma Fel on top and you’re in full panic mode because what am I going to do here how am I going to claw myself out of the situation where if I boost I’m toast um yeah so that’s the kind of common thought between the two and TBO and we see T-Bone here yeah that evil card T-Bone but in this matchup it’s actually not as impactful because uh black Tech Whisperers has battle worn so he can always be throwing that in front of um in front of at least least the first T-Bone and Des was starting off the game with 36 lives so fall life less than Sebastian new mhm yep it all comes down to you know what ability do you have to squeak out damage outside of normal play conditions right and dashio has sneaky ways to put in boom grenades from the top of her deck right and so she therefore starts with a little bit of a life penalty and it it makes sense um but yeah so we’re going to open with the blossoming Mist blade from the new and a spider spite in the other hand I believe that’s standard pitching two codec of Frailty interesting yeah you definitely don’t want those in your opening hand but this is exactly the kind of card I’m talking about that you’re just so worried about as dashio cuz you can’t block fck it it’s really tough which is why we’re already seeing a commitment from the uh equipment but he’s thinking better of it because if equipment gets committed it just creates an attack reaction in the new’s hand that’s basically what that equipment says Tech Foundry heart says block two battle warn create an attack reaction in news hand oh my God that’s evil so block five actually you know what it didn’t create the attack reaction he called The Bluff so Sebastian is going to go Arsenal pass and Thomas is running the Dasio sleeves too we didn’t talk about the sleeves yet ah true yeah true yeah this see the flex here is I am dedicated yeah I am dedicated to Dash iio I will show the world the Das I will make it in flashh and blood Nationals I know more about this hero I have forgotten more about dashio than you know about dashio that’s what those sleev say so zipper hit five go again with a boost and he boosted a pulse wave Harpoon which is pretty relevant um it’s a card that you’re not too sad to boost as dashio but you um you would obviously you would rather have the effect because it’s one of the more powerful effects in dashio um mechanists are pretty famous for being sort of a brute class where they don’t have any relevant on hits for the most part but they have pre- on hits as it were so they have cards that say this gets minus one or it gets plus one if it’s blocked with equipment or you can’t block equipment with this or I get to look at your hand and steal a card from your hand to block uh as is the case with pulse Harpoon but the looming boom grenade is definitely causing some pause for Sebastian Kleiner because he’s already spent that fate for scene on the zipper hit so and also Thomas being able to watch all the time on the top of the deck and maybe coming in with another could be you never know it’s my favorite part about dashio yeah the M tricks oh man I play I I play dashio almost exclusive L and I am constantly I just look at the top of the deck for fun I look at the top of the deck at the beginning of the game I look at it at the end of the game and I just go look I’m looking at the top of my deck so Sebastian will commit two cards at yeah yeah you don’t want to let that four turn into an eight from that red boom grenade so we get a nice Arsenal pass from dashio and moving back to Sebastian kleiner’s turn leave no Witnesses do you see what the go ahead that’s a good card it’s a very good card it’s a really frustrating card to actually deal with did you see what the other uh card was in in his hand no I didn’t see it yet so Crown gets uh no Thomas changed his mind he is looking he’s got to look at the top of the deck first you got to make sure he’s drawing what he wants yeah son now he’ll probably take another quick look yeah that’s a that’s an advantage you can make your stash iio yeah getting a throttle from the top so this is going to banish the top card of his deck which is a Toma fandel and you know you’re not too sad that’s actually kind of helpful for the Dasio player in this situation because you don’t want to be boosting that um because obviously going lose your turn as it’s not a mechanist card so you know kind of perfectly set up for Thomas there m and we see a snack in Sebastian’s hand is that right uh I believe so yeah is that it’s the artwork is so that that’s an already dead for sure mhm already dead but doesn’t really really makes sense um it kind of looks like one of those alliteration cards like a PL of the poor sack the Shifty or whatever it’s hard to it’s really hard to tell from here though and in Thomas’s hand we have a twin drive we have an outpace and we have a throttle but not enough resources to play all of them so I’m assuming it’s really hard because against assassin you basically just don’t get to have an arsenal yeah they have so much H snow disruption right yeah okay they already dead getting committed to blocks yeah yeah that’s an expensive block for sure yeah it’s an expensive block and then a boom grenade coming off top taking that uh five damage which is reduced by three from the already dead and taking it up to six damage from the boom grenade and also getting um an extra action point from playing the boom grenade because whenever an item comes into play for dash uh that costs uh one or less she can um remove a steam counter from it to gain a uh gain an action point so action points go up counters on symbiosa shot go up and now we just have to see what he’s going to do with the rest of his hand looks like it’s going to be two symbiosa shot here just casting in these efficient shots mhm incredibly efficient yeah that’s crazy like other Heroes can only dream about that yeah I know other PR other Heroes need to play Talisha yeah I know it’s crazy I mean it’s that’s why she has 36 life she’s such a fun hero oh my gosh oh he’s gonna pitch the twin Drive interesting okay so he’s going to pitch the twin Drive boosting out the tech cor I wonder if he has heists in this deck because you’re singing If you get to bring teore back into play from a heist yeah that’s a legit relevant on hit you can’t start with teore on the board like the original dashio so teore is a rare scen item yep you’ve got to find it you’ve got to play it off the top which he already played his boom grenade off the top this turn so he couldn’t play the te core um so now his only chance to get that teal core back as a heist or drawing it and then he’s going to come back in with one more symbiosa shot I mean this is a crazy turn right I mean this off of four resources he created nine 15 16 178 19 damage and there we see the card that I mistaken with snag oh okay it looks like a it looks like one of those alliteration cards right yeah it’s from Dynasty I think right I only remember the artwork yeah I can only remember the artwork as well these cards haven’t seen a ton of play I mean there’s been contractor aerus running around and AR Rockne is somewhere somewhere in the meta or outside of the meta I should say but they’ll have their day so tunic is up on Sebastian’s side too mhm yep which can be quite relevant I mean it can be used for something like uh another weapon attack there comes the level yeah blue strike levels of Enlightenment is the actual name of the card right yeah so this will be four go again and then what’s left in hand here yeah you definitely take that four vanilla damage you take that all day and here’s a new card from MST Thomas has to read it I have to be clear I I would have I would need to read it too yeah I was going to say very likely need to read it too if I could figure out what it was we don’t have our tablet today so we can’t super quickly fly through uh tesar cards or not talar cards jeez um fabruary cards so Tomas is thinking about his blocks now and the the options that can happen looking at thas hand um what are his options here um let’s see he has a bios update right he has a data link he has a bios update he has a throttle and a mystery card that I can’t see among the the flipping um it’s a little bit it’s a little bit tough it really depends on what what’s on the top of his deck because the BIOS update is a wonderful card if you have long combat chains like if you have a couple of zero to 60s or if you have a couple of um uh T-Bones for example because it allows you to dick deep but if he’s just got an item right on the top of his deck he is he just he it doesn’t even matter he’s excited to play that bios update there comes the attack reactions yep there’s the attack reactions what what what is that card that got played so it’s persuasive prognosis ah persuasive prognosis steal card that says whenever this banish an action card gain one life but then also says when this hits a hero banish the top card of the deck then look at the hand and banish a card with the same color it’s the banished card okay that makes oh it’s a dissolving Shield is the last card in his hand okay so then the uh Fang uh the Fang strike attack reaction comes in pumping that one up to five that’s a terrifying proposition going all the way down to 23 unless there’s some plan and he chooses to actually play a boom grenade off the top I believe that’s actually the third red boom grenade um pitching the red throttle so I suppose that means he’s re-evaluating the damage that he is going to be able to do with this hand yeah just showing Sebastian what he has now mhm that is such an advantage right being able to know what your opponent has in hand mhm and then I think at some point you can also dig to the deck right yeah with one of the cards yeah one of the cards allows you to look through and banish all cards yeah we saw that yesterday in the new versus Zen game yeah where the new just sniped all of the bonds I mean it was just brutal um so the dissolving Shield is looking like the choice yeah getting out all the dissolving Shields it’s actually he’s going through his deck right now mhm man news potential to do deck damage is just scary especially because that magestic isn’t a legendary so from Ban’s point of view he can dig through the deck now and also while searching out the shields make sure he knows what kind of other cards are waiting in there yeah knowledge is power I mean if if if Thomas has any sort of tech Sebastian now knows about that Tech yeah for sure so it’s um it’s incredibly tough to to play against this hero and there comes the the new ability mhm yep and this will allow her to um banish and play cards right from the banish Zone yeah right and also he was making sure by using the black Tech Whisperers that he has go again mhm so I can know leverage of of news power finishing the top card which will throttle yep and now he’s just getting free Tech cor yeah he’s just going to go not too bad not too bad yeah I mean that’s a free Knife right or a free dagger um Thomas very uh yeah Thomas is unhappy about this very cordially handing him his own steam counter like here go ahead take my steam counter I don’t I don’t need it but I think honestly as Thomas you’re probably quite happy with the choice that he took a dissolving Shield that doesn’t you know it doesn’t take any damage out of your deck M doesn’t um really disrupt your game plan it just but Sebastian is taking a statement with this right he’s making sure like you don’t get to defend later extra defense yeah yeah mhm you don’t get ontap um defense and also it does remove two potential ways to put uh counters on symbiosa shot so that is relevant Sebastian is such a collected and focused player MH making sure he leverages every every possible Edge that he can get yeah I’ve definitely seen him around at the tournaments he’s always um he’s he’s very zen-like very very calm Zen it hard yeah Zen it hard so boom grenade into an outp or yeah boom grenade from the previous turn outpace into a siosa shot and unfortunately it looks like the boom grenade is going to get either lost at the beginning of next turn or maybe depending on what the attacks are from Kleiner could end up being like a adaptive plating fodder and now we’re getting the free Mist Blade the free Mist blade from that stolen Teo core the free Blade free blade free the blade so looking at Thomas’s hand 0 to 60 outpace oh there’s a um te pounder in there and a bios update kind of an awkward hand actually oh and another prognosis persuasive oh jeez yeah Sebastian are saying that you know last round this card like it’s coming again now yeah truly I’m not lying to you I don’t want you to miss this feeling yeah of getting hit by this just just don’t block man this card scares me yeah I I wondered if this was going to be the block and then we see plunder the poor this is a contract card which effectively is searching for cards that cost very cheap which is most of Dash’s deck outside of things like twin drives uh maximum velocities Tech Pounders although I haven’t seen one maximum velocity yet in the deck I would assume if you have a twin drive that you’re probably running the max velocity version but hard to tell right now so the card on the chain is um Rob the rich or which one I believe it’s plunder the poor plunder the poor okay yeah yeah just making sure to get another boom grenade here on toas side that has to be the last one yeah just taking four banishing a yellow zipper hit I think we’re going to see quite a casual turn from Thomas here I wouldn’t be surprised if it is genuinely just P the other two cards in hand play out the tech pounder and pass because te pounder represents a lot of damage over the next couple of turns um but then again it could also be something like an outpace into the tle pounder I believe the other card in his hand is a blue but you want to at least threaten the boom grenade oh no it’s a yeah right right it’s a 0 to 60 and I’m just looking at the chat and Morris T is saying that Zen won Australia Dash won New Zealand and Victor won malijah oh wow very cool Morris is it Dash inventor extraordinaire or Dash iio that’s the question I’m not really sure that’s super relevant because Dash inventor extraordinary is really popular down there so Thomas is coming in with the BIOS update together with a 0 to 60 yep and it’s a 0 to 60 uh blue so making the card relatively quite I mean it’s still quite strong now the question is is does Thomas believe that he has a way to get an item banished over the next two cards because he obviously didn’t get it on the first one boom grenade pops as a result of the on hit Andes tech there you go so he was actually ends up just using the BIOS update to make a to create a break point effectively and then is happy to just pitch his outpace to play out of teap pounder now they’re discussing the exact text on teore another free blade another free blade although it’s the last free blade yeah there are cheers for Thomas prayer in the chat go Charlie Charlie marrow and OG Dash has won New Zealand ah okay she’s getting pretty close to living legend at this point so techla Foundry heart comes in to block the one damage from the blade that indicates to me there’s some trickery of foot I see a um another Progressive persuasive oh my gosh 111 you’re really sad about that I mean he has the nuts Thomas he’s got a twin Drive he’s got a Toma fendell he’s got a zipper hit and he’s got um I can’t see that last card I think it’s a zero and I see a g card in Hand of Sebastian a transcender a chi U sorry yeah it’s not a chi yet yeah it’s not a but it will be a CH pretty soon does he have an attack reaction in his hand I see a sink below yeah sink below not no no attack reaction oh this is you know this is really really tough this is sort of a damned if you do damned if you don’t because the card can’t hit I mean it just can’t um but Thomas doesn’t know that there’s no more damage coming through on this uh on this attack and so it’s a it’s a position where like do I really need to give up two of my cards in order to maybe put the Toma findel in Arsenal next turn instead but he opts to take the damage it looks like because the priority was pass back to Sebastian yeah and Sebastian seems like he wants to activate mask right away mhm banishing the twin Drive yeah twin drive not super relevant and I suppose Thomas’s I mean Toma Fel is probably one of what’s that was is there a judge call or yeah I think so yeah jam comes in so we’ll just wait out this judge call oh it’s already over okay um it was the first judge call for us on the stream yeah true a first time yeah first time first time you know you never forget your first time of course he’s going to take the power card out of that hand TOA Fel I don’t as weird as this is to say I actually think that while Toma Fel is um is incredibly strong you’re not too terribly upset yeah as Thomas because it you still have you know uh six damage represented on board with the teap pounder and you have two really strong cards in hand that can threaten a serious amount of damage so there comes the tech loov from on top of the deck yeah that’s exactly how you want to play that card so now Thomas is just deciding yeah he he decides to banish us another red uh 0 to 60 and take one counter off of that te pounder for the plus two on the 0 to 60 making it a six kind of trying to think through the outs here for Thomas because it seems like new is or quite in the driver seat here I mean there’s been a lot of banishing it’s a slow life march new has largely been safe from most attacks so been thinking about Thomas’s way back into this game and I think it really just comes down to to something like a high octane yeah the thing comes in handy now M already dead from Top Sebastian takes it yeah yep takes two and there comes the somebody else’s shot taking another two Thomas has had a little bit of trouble stacking the um the counters on symbiosis shot for something like a high octane turn but we also haven’t seen a single high octane so it’s possible he actually doesn’t run it it’s not run in every single Dash iio list now that comes to e strike that will definitely be going again yeah yes then we also have the weakest link um that can be played by Sebastian mhm but also the already dead if he is not taking get that to the bottom yeah yeah he used it for the E strike effect mhm and then another plunder the poor which comes in for four and he has tunic up so already de is free then right um or is it for two I think it’s for one it it costs two already dead it’s a two for six uh but he sync that to the bottom and then he has the weakest link oh the weakest yeah okay right the weakest is for one although I don’t believe um plunder the poor has no it’s for two the weest link costs two so oh it does cost two okay um but what this does mean because that hit and he actually hit a teore he now has that second silver so at the beginning of his next turn he’s going to be able to buy back his black Tech Whispers oh yeah so that’s the really relevant thing Thomas kind of gave him some free value there um so he must really value his hand and probably actually doesn’t want that teore off the top oh look at that he has so much now um he also has Gala funka in hand yeah Gala funka yes very true yeah um spark of Genius is the is the name of the card I always said Gala funka in my uh in my locals though always okay two action points and also there will be a T-bone I think that played now and this is kind of good now with tunic being up to three it’s really relevant I mean you’re so so happy that you can play out your team on before the black Tech Whisperers come back into play especially if he has a second one you are just singing he has another one of those um look at the hand banish a card cards I mean of course of course he’s banishing everything yeah it’s new his hand he’s even banishing his banish P at some point true banishing it to the banished banished Zone the forever banished Zone yeah the for the super super banish Zone um so T-Bone grabbing the helmet he has a second T-Bone by the way so tunic’s going to go damn yeah oh no it’s not at first it’s oh we we need to play the gala funka at first it’s like yeah too much value yeah that’s some serious value um he paid I believe nothing for it so he’s probably just going to grab something like a boom grenade or yes um protocol R right yeah backup protocol red it’ll be interesting to see if he tries to pull something out of his graveyard for this I can’t imagine that you have the resources to really go for something like a throttle so it’s I would assume it’s like a z to 60 maybe or maybe he’s content to just holding on to that until the next turn see what he draws and then cash it in if he doesn’t like it another Gala funka yeah another Gala funka and this is not a hard ones per turn we don’t have that no we can just slam them all on the board yeah well Dash is just swimming in action points right now because all of these items coming into play is um is just gifting action points and he still has Mage Master boots you’re going to try and save it for atoma felle if you can he has highest two which is being played now I think yeah I believe so oh he decides to pitch that uh oh Tbone yeah goodbye high octane yeah he must be pretty confident right just making sure he knows what is in the banish P yeah this is uh this is quite interesting actually now I think about it because you know Sebastian clanner earlier in the game banishes out the dissolving Shields yeah Dash can get those back so from the banished Zone it’s just basically an extension of his hand right yeah got a little chain action going on here and here ah this is a really interesting question if Heist is to hit do you want a dissolving Shield or a teore because you have a teore already yeah with one more counter on it I mean it’s irrelevant because it ends up hitting anyway or um being blocked out anyway yeah thas just making sure he knows what time it is yep yep they still have plenty of time in the round and there comes the second yala funka with two resources floating so if he wants he can go grab something else I assume he’s going to end up just grabbing a um another zero cost item so for now I don’t know every German name but uh I think for the next time I need to know every German name and then it’s just like techan is on the board yeah Tech can yeah Teo Goose heads [Laughter] yeah the M St isn’t on the board yeah what is the uh what’s high speeded impact yeah yeah that’s right oh you’re good you’re good yeah yeah I remember I watched I actually watched one of your videos where you opened the history pack yeah I was laughing so much when you were reading the German names it would be actually cool to have like a chart where it shows how many players in the German Nationals actually have German cards in their deck yeah yeah that would be so cool when I went to when I went to Worlds I offered um Sasha to take um snaps from me but they were German snaps so they schnapa yeah oh that’s a really schnapa yeah yeah schnapa it’s like such a oh come on you got to take these it’s they’re too hilarious so Bea protocol is going at the heest back mhm yep he’s going to end up just grabbing the um yeah te pounder again so now we know why Thomas is so confident going into this yeah well it’s it’s really interesting because he draws off of the uh the spark of Genius um grabbing that that uh backup protocol red yeah leaving two resources floating which allows him to cash in his um his token list or his steam counter L uh backup protocol to buy back any card in his graveyard with the same color so he is able to buy back a heist and this just puts so much pressure on kleiner’s hand because it’s such a crazy relevant on hit luckily for Kleiner uh Heist only brings back cards that cost one or less so he can’t get back a te pounder oh but still relevant that he could get a dissolving Shield or a te core yeah I mean those are super relevant cards because the dissolving Shield would um put yet another counter on symbiosa shot putting it up to and now we’re really like the the win condition is clear for Thomas at that point if you have five counters on symbiosa shot you need a high octane and like two boost guards yeah um yeah Sebastian is not happy yet yeah it’s it’s tough I mean this is a this is why I love Dash AR so much I mean I I I do want to commentate on Sebastian’s game as well but like following a dashio player through all the different things that they can do is so interesting yeah all these different crazy little lines that they can take and just just a shot at the end yeah just a shot yeah not pushing it up to five so there’s not really a reason to to stay at four counters might as well push the damage keep life totals as even as possible and as you said the Silver’s getting cashed in here yeah Silver’s get cashed in bringing the black Tech Whisperers back and that is good for many reasons right he gets back block value but he also can leverage on mhm on the effect yep yep the go again effect is incredibly relevant in Assassin which is a pretty famous ver having not a lot of go again MH um so having it you know in play with a one block is super relevant so Thomas must getting resource by the two two Resources by the techan mhm by the [Laughter] techan there Comes the Boom grenade man how boom boom so many boom grenades I feel like they’ve all been red too I feel like he’s played like six red boom grenades there must have been a couple of yellows in there and it’s just hard to see on the monitor but yep okay again quite relevant Dasio two action points this allows for so many things another Brom grenade in Hand by the way and the high octane the high octane is life yes he can also use the the Becca protocol on board to get another card mhm and he’s going to go ahead and he’s like this is exactly what I dreamed of this is the turn probably um it very much depends what’s on top I’ve been in the position many times where I go high octane draw a card oh it’s Toma findel oh that has happened um a lot yeah I mean you’re talking about Tomo fandal yeah yeah yeah but I think you mean fendal V oh yeah I I do mean that you’re right fend fend not really sure that’s B fend fandel B that’s not a Bo that’s a v oh okay that’s a big one that’s a big thick one okay I see all right so the reason why haane is so unbelievably relevant especially coming into when life totals are so low is that for every time Thomas boosts in this turn he will gain an action point so if he has enough resources he could very easily get to five action points um doesn’t take much to get there then he just shoots down Sebastian yeah and you know he has um he has eight damage represented the weapon right now so when you start putting the math together a little bit that’s 6 Plus 8 already oh actually no excuse me it’s eight plus eight so we’re already looking at like probably a 16 damage turn just off of this card and the symbiosa shot yeah it looks like uh the tunic will be gone in this turn probably yeah and uh I assume we’re also going to see a counter getting laid on the black Tech Whisperers yeah oh is that not a red throttle it is not so Tech P gets plus two right mhm it gives plus two that was the last counter on it so it’s now gone there comes the first shot you can see I I believe Thomas is getting a little bit nervous so he uses one of his action points to shoot with the symbiosa shot another one and I think there just might not be enough gas in his hand cuz he only has a zipper hit and another boom grenade he pitches the 0 to 60 yeah activates the backup protocol probably going for a heist again yeah makes perfect sense Heist is coming back yep another Heist got to threaten it’s my one on hit oh yeah and just making sure the chain can be clear yeah so he boosts another backup protocol oh okay he can just recycle and recycle The Heist yeah there’s a lot of options now in Banner zone for the dashio player and this will be an incredibly this be a tough block because dashio has I mean she has brick ability it’s definitely possible um but throwing another two cards in front of this just kind of sets you up for major Tempo loss because we’ve banished one high octane we’ve played one high octane there’s still one in the deck but Dash’s deck is actually getting quite low now and it could be a legitimate condition for Sebastian at this point for deck damage for uh to to win on fatigue yeah he’s thinking about his options and also considering the time there’s not not even 10 minutes left on the clock yep there’s not a ton of time left so another pistol shot reaches for the pad going to six and then the final pistol shot yeah if you take one pistol shot you probably take two pistol shots yeah yeah and that’s why Sebastian is going down to four it’ be interesting to see if we can get through this Dasio game without Mage Master boots getting used yeah and what occasion will Mage Master boots be used just for the V right it’s it’s only for the to yeah it’s only for the Tom of find though because it’s the only relevant card you can really use it for most things have go again yeah um and if you’re playing out like a teap pounder for example it costs so much that it usually ends up screwing your turn anyway um so the weakest link is on the board now with famously no more block or no more cards in hand so weakest link when this sit a hero look at their hand and choose a card without base defense if you do they discard it and you draw a card and we see a tech pounder in toas hand yeah which is basically a resource card at this point it’s an absolute must block um I believe for Thomas not just because it’s for six damage but also because of that uh the the value proposition is just not there to keep cards in hand like go to two lose my one resource do nothing next turn is just not a very good thing so I would assume he ends up probably just full blocking this and then never mind he takes he takes the six takes all six loses his Teo pounder then he’s facing three boost yeah three boost although it’s really only two boost because throttle costs two and luckily I mean he has the yellow zipper hit so that is super relevant and what was the O again um I actually don’t know I believe it I believe it’s a boom grenade actually another one yeah I believe so okay cuz I I remember him having a boom grenade still in hand and he ended up pitching something else so boom grenade gone yeah okay life total’s updated now I was a little bit curious about that we have a sync Below on Sebastian’s side o very very strong card at this point that comes in handy yeah yeah boom grenade I believe it’s another red making it his 12th uh red boom [Laughter] grenade um takes a counter off it puts the the counter on symbiosa shot this is really just like you’ve got to block me um snap syn below makes perfect sense um not quite out of the woods yet though this is going to require a two block because I believe that is a red throttle pitching the yellow zipper hit boosting out the last G alauna and it’s gone it’s gone well that’s fine you’re actually okay with those being doneus 10 damage threatened here six blockable and he chooses to block all six plus symbiosa shock really tight match uh at this point you’re really worried as deio that you’re just going to draw into some items I don’t think there’s many left in the deck there are five minutes left on the clock and unlike yesterday we don’t get a few minutes back at the end yeah no that’s very true twin Drive outpace I believe chooses to block at the BIOS update yeah that makes sense I mean the BIOS update is relevant for the damage but H it’s you can’t keep and it’s getting us in here yeah it’s this is coming down to the wire I believe that this it’s looking like it’s going toward a fatigue win for um for Kleiner just looking through his deck figuring out how many the likelihood of him boosting some game-winning cards how many Toms are left in this deck um um I depending on if he runs two or three I believe if he’s running three there’s one left if he’s running two there’s none left obviously yeah um most asio run three you just want them but Sebastian looking at Charlie miro’s graveyard Sebastian’s hands have lined up really well this game to deny uh the toome looking through the graveyard one more time so he has one block value left on his boots that he can cash in mhm mhm who who um Sebastian no those only block for one oh really yeah yeah black Tech wh is only block for one okay yep he can still cash in the effect though he can get that go again if he can get like one turn to breathe which it looks like he might end up getting that there’s not a lot of so there was the time call yep however stream matches usually get a little bit of a Time extension but it’s I mean it’s right down to the wire they’ve got to figure this out now at this point in time uh players also discussing like what are the possibilities what can happen mhm to make sure everything is going the right way goes to one this is the only attack this turn so that fa for scen coming in clutch because if he’s got a any assassin card to give go again o he has a codex in hand and a surgic uh Circle surgical strike wondering what that card is named in German I don’t know it’s a good question neither I’ve never seen it in German so we yeah and that’s that’s nasty getting the yeah the daggers in now Kachi kadachi do we see the last heist in Thomas hand uh see an outpace yeah I believe it is a heist behind that outpace yep there it is the GG Sebastian takes the game yeah there were probably not enough damage left in uh Thomas’s deck to really consistently be able to block and also boost for the go again what a game this was really interesting matchup he was really tight really really close um couple things just kind of went wrong for him he never got his TOA Fel turn um looks like maximum velocity was actually boarded out if even runs it a lot of Das don’t actually run maximum velocity um this also means for Sebastian he has eight wins now he lost three times if he’s able to win the next round maybe he’s life for top eight I’m not sure wow maybe very possible so Thomas so that means that Thomas is officially gone gone right I think so yeah yeah yeah if we have time for an interview then let’s see I was sitting all comfy I was I was enjoying my my dashio yeah yeah you were looking at the top of your deck just all the time and man I it’s a thing of beauty I know that I kind of fanboyed during that last match where it was really hard for me to actually look at the match holistically just because I was so interested in what the dash was doing and the lines that you could take but um yeah that was uh that was really fun that was a really cool match to watch um this was your favorite one so far oh by far yeah absolutely I mean it’s it’s it’s just a pleasure when you get to cast your favorite hero sure you know what I mean like my first ever casting thing that I did I got to cast a dromi match which at that time droi was my favorite hero and it was dromi versus fi and I knew that match super well I very very well and that was around about the time that Mara was developing the the super red line dromi and it just so happened that that dromi in that round was playing a very SAR list of maras but not the exact same so it was really it was just such a pleasure to be able to bring in some like specialist knowledge to talk about like you know talk through the lines talk through the the thoughts that that the players have yeah when you know the hero so intimately have two interesting points in that one at least Uprising is a set what that we don’t have in German yet we don’t have German Uprising cards yet so yeah they never because the German thing started right after Uprising yeah that’s right yeah with the outside ERS yeah because it was Uprising then it was Dynasty I believe and then it was Outsiders Outsiders and Outsiders was is where the official like non-english prints were coming yes yeah so I me we had history pack beforehand but sure yeah yeah the history pack but uprising still hasn’t made it into that history pack yet yeah and then also you were mentioning Mara I think Mara was also playing deio at us Nets really yeah well got to send a DM got to figure out what her deck list is yeah uh I remember it was so funny because at the Battle hearten Belgium was where was where I cast a little bit yeah I sent a DM to Mara on Twitter and I was like Hey can I have your Redline drum my and she sent it to me and it was like awesome so I took it to the next day and and played and that was oh it was so much fun I got bodied though wow yeah destroyed okay so are we going to try and track down an interview do we have enough time between round I don’t think so right 10 minutes to next round 10 minutes to the next round okay but I also see a lot of players still standing mhm do you want to try and track one down or yeah sure okay cool well we’ll uh jump away from the screen for a couple minutes while Alex runs over to see if those guys want to do a quick interview and also for the chat um if you want to see any particular hero for the last CC match uh write in the chat and maybe we are able to get you an interesting match up again yeah I’ll be I’ll be looking [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] all right round 12 coming up here pretty soon uh but first we actually have some standings to go over um some pretty interesting and relevant things going into round 12 so here are the standings I just heard that pairings should be there or maybe they’re just about done with pairings but we see yonas stok at the top that makes sense so it looks like he went on to win his next match unbelievable run from him and then boino and ilas still fighting for those top three spots and Kevin sanker in the fourth this is looking like a stacked top eight wow uh it’s it’s interesting not a lot of movement actually over the last couple of rounds um we see that Fabio actually it made it up to ninth so he has a very good chance of making top eight uh that would be really interesting he’s a he’s a friend of mine we’ve chatted quite a bit over the over the years and um yeah okay so Sebastian Kleiner in the in the seventh place he was telling me outside that he actually I believe drew a around earlier or something along those lines so he wasn’t sure if he is even close to the top eight after that win in but I’m assuming that he definitely has a really good chance um yeah moving down the list here a little bit we see Viet fam in 16th another really well-known player Thomas prayer the previous Dasio dropped down to 17th um Freddy fried uh maxan Klein they’re all down there but you know there’s still a lot to play for Here Comes Alex getting ready to sit down Marcel Harts in 27th Place previous uh German National winner and uh hey how’s it going hey what’s up so stream table organized yes excellent yeah I think it’s an interesting match to watch too because um we’ll see Tom tidex oh and he was in the finals of last year’s Nationals championship actually on Lexi he lost against Marcel who was playing Dr right and actually he will be against team meeps Kill ah we finally got a meeps on stream or did we get one yesterday yesterday too yeah okay good good good yeah I remember chat was like please team meeps yeah so cool all right we got two meeps on stream or one Meep and yeah one Meep and Tom yeah do we know what Heroes they’re playing so um kill is playing Zen for sure yeah um I talked to him he was um playing the game for one and a half years now and he was loving katsu at first and then as M came out he was like oh I’ll just go here yeah Zen is just uh you know he’s just like a KATU on steroids unbelievable for yeah cool awesome well it’s kind of a little bit S as I know now likeu ah he was a boy man oh Zen mirror yeah Zen mirror I think if I’m not mistaken um we will see the win rate uh soon but um yeah White Rabbit just announced that after this game the it’s the last CC match before top eight and um that is the reason why they want to then uh let the top 12 players uh get their prizes after this round because the 12 players will get the invite to the world championship right and that’s a really big thing for a flesh and blood player at this high of a stake yeah that’s you know like I said there’s a lot to play for going into these last couple of rounds even if you’re you know not live for top eight you can still squeak into that 12th spot and get get another invite and kind of recoup recoup the cost of coming here so looking at sleeve flexing um not a lot of flexing from the meeps player it’s just kind of standard red but just Agro sleeve yeah just aggro sleeve yeah I suppose that’s what you’re representing if you’re if you’re bringing red sleeves like look I don’t plan to block you yeah but we do see some legitimate flexing from the other Zen player um you know I have aidia sleeves it depends did you buy them or did you get them yeah yeah that’s the question that’s the question if you got them it’s a flex it’s it’s saying Pro to a little I was there or or also at Barcelona yeah sure you can you can get them at the tick at the prize wall now well they came with the the protor box as well yeah mhm the protor Box alongside the uh I have that box cuz I I played in that pro tour at Barcelona oh yeah I did not do well yeah yeah I remember we were talking about it yeah I did not do well um but yeah so the ey of aidia sleeves they they definitely are meant to send a message it’s like look I’ve been here before I’ve been here before yeah I’ve seen the cards I know the lines I know that Zen is a good choice this is also a statement yeah right I know Zen is a good choice that’s true I might have even played against Michael Hamilton that’s it could be the case that’s what those sleeves say yeah and you know everything matters in a game like this every single thing do you have rainbow foil legendary equipment or do you have extended art cold foil yeah I I remember I remember in the chat that um someone was complaining about uh gyala Funko not being rainbow foil uh yeah that’s uh it’s a little tough that’s a little tough little tough to track down so Tom just going through his stick again and uh looking if he actually has all the side bot options that he wants to have in the deck for this last match of CC very relevant match yeah it’s a really really interesting game though because both players have have eight wins mhm so that means that in the 12th round now it’s kind of relevant who wins this round yeah absolutely yeah it’s hugely relevant for both mhm yeah I heard like players talking about it like okay who is in now for sure in the top eight uh we have players like elas mhm um who is in for sure yeah he won his last round and yeah and yonas for sure yeah um of course I mean he was he was in after that first one yeah boo for sure um yeah it’s uh it’s looking like a stack top eight oh yeah for sure Germany got some really good players yeah yeah some terrifyingly good players I’ve played against some of these guys and it’s like it’s like they just know what’s in my hand but even before I do yeah like I’m drawing up my four and they’re like oh he’s got these four cards in his hand I’m like oh great cool awesome I’m glad that you know that information and I don’t know it yet it’s truly it’s unbelievable able playing against like very good Flesh and Blood players but hey it’s still casual still jovial They’re laughing with each other that’s good it’s good to see and Thomas yeah both uh giving us a cheer yeah making sure some friends of them getting cheers on the chat well and I imagine that everybody’s really happy today because it’s been so much nicer in the weather um tensions can run High when it’s hot outside but today it’s just been like beautiful just rainy cold yeah wind coming in from the doors it’s been so nice and so and it’s still pretty early in the day right it’s just about noon yes so so we got some um comments also in the chat about heroes that players want to see in the next couple of games mhm yeah I know it’s a bummer that we have no aelia no Enigma Oro yet but um we take that information into the top eight do we even have any of that in the top cut I feel like it’s we know okay so there’s at least three Zen yeah competing for top eight we know Leva and Lev is in and we had that yeah yeah Sebastian cler was play seventh as of the standings of last round and so that’s a new he needs to win this round now and then see if he can make it yep win and in right yeah so it gets really tough once the meta starts to consolidate toward the end of the the end of the rounds but Zen has kind of you know he’s stormed into this format and it’s he’s taking completely over yeah that’s for sure so now players I think are looking at the things laying on the table which are dases and everything that we need to properly display and read what is going on and I assume we’re going to be getting the yep there it is there’s the fist bump to start the game time to lay out oohoo double Zephyr needle double Zephyr needle quadruple Zephyr needle this looking like a complete mirror match they’re poking each other with some needles this card is really relevant let’s pull it up real quick because it changes a lot about how the match actually gets played um grab it real quick so we can quickly refer to it Zephyr needle a very interesting card originally printed in I believe Crucible yeah that’s right um was mostly used in Benji for most of its life uh I guess I suppose it was also used in like a IRA Blitz a little bit um but not quite not very often um but Zephyr needle once per turn attack um pay one resource and it has go again it attacks for two if it’s defended by a card with greater defense than Zephyr needle’s attack damage value destroys Zephyr needle so it’s a risky Weapon quote unquote to attack with but again like with Talisha it’s a strategy to just get some damage in mhm and then not really relying on the weapon too right yep yeah I mean it’s just it’s a nice four damage representing and if you can you know pull cards out of your opponent’s hand it’s kind of a free four damage yeah um and also you don’t need to play both right you can just attack with one if you have only one resource left that’s an advantage too yep absolutely it looks like both players have Art of War in their hand which is hilarious kill is going first so now that we are in CC it’s a lot different like in draft where when you are going first you’re either loving it or hating it depending on the hero that you’re playing but in CC it’s very different um some players actually talk about oh okay going first am I losing just because going first MH and um we will see this in the mirror match now yep y absolutely actually the case but there’s a tech actually here sensor and um I also saw Danel fatelli in the chat and he piloted this Tech exactly in the last World Championship with his F deck so um I’m really happy to see this card being played now in this format again yeah sensors you know it’s one of those cards that it’s very metad dependent when it can come in um it’s it all just depends on the consistency of the Decks that you’re playing against where it’s like wow okay of the decks I’m playing against are running the same couple of cards so I don’t mind tossing this in to force a a weird you know it’s very safe for example that Tom has something like a bonds yeah um and so it can be you know incredibly relevant so here comes the uh transcend that goes to grave it’s a little bit uh that’s uh that’s a mistake I think uh it looks like he actually just wanted to get that card out of his hand okay um so that he can drop more because he um he attacked with zhr needle lost the Zephyr needle because it was blocked by fluster fist attacked with uh sensor and relevant he pitched the bonds um because bonds can’t be used quite yet M um uh and then he Arsenal his Art of War so I’m assuming he’s just trying to set up like let’s just let’s go let’s figure this out um Zephyr needle is such a such a bait card right like you you throw it out there and it’s like I’ll put my three Block in front of it yeah and also it um is a little bit of a mind game too right now kill decided to not block the Z needle and then the second zephan needle comes in and then it’s like if I block that one now does it really make a difference or not mhm or just I take just four yep and in the true to Nature a mirror match Tom has an art of war and a sensor in his hand um I’m not quite sure what’s an Arsenal but and there comes the the sensor again okay okay so you got a censor I’ve got a censor I will censor you sensor Amnesia is also a card that is being played in this format yep Amnesia very interesting very relevant card especially for decks like um like Zen right where the name matters so much uh we see a blue Strike A bonds and um can’t quite see the other two cards in his hand levels of Enlightenment is blue strike by the way uh looks like he’s just just going to toss a Bonds in front of it bonds yellow so take two Tom gets to name a card H there’s an interesting question why um why are the Zep needles better than the the Talisha what is the choice here I mean it’s a personal preference I guess right yeah I suppose it’s a personal preference I mean tar cost two you can only attack with it three times maximum no matter what happens um but I think that you know both are very relevant choices uh I think in a matchup like zenir I can see the argument for Zephyr needle over talar simply because there’s only so many three blocks as then has um you know ninja famously pretty bad blocking decks yeah they don’t want to block I think in this game nearly at all yeah so if it’s true that they don’t want to block then they’re happy to just swing Zephyr needles I mean three damage off the weapon and you’re not a warrior it’s pretty relevant yeah it is so we got a levels of Enlightenment coming in for five and Zen’s just GNA take it which or Zen Tom I got to say the names of the players here uh Tom’s just going to take it and I would imagine it’s because he’s ready to do some Art of War Shenanigans pretty big life total discrepancy already down by 12 um that can be absolutely completely erased in one turn cycle though oh yeah some players even complaining about that it’s not even possible to block out some of the chains that Zen is able to put out so they have no chance of actually getting ahead and getting into the game yep yes it can be incredibly difficult but hey he’s got the combo he’s ready to go yeah he’s going to go ahead and transcend the Passover comes in here banishing the buns from kill’s graveyard brutal for kol um make the chi now the question is he banished a command and Conquer off the top of his Deck with the um ancestral Harmony which is good and bad mhm as we saw in the last Zen game that we watched um because I’m assuming that this card that he plays here is going to end up getting buffed up at instant speed with the Art of War descend Gus wave descend Gus Wave It’s a blue one right it is a blue one so this comes in for two okay Zen gets activated creates a couching tiger allows him to go searching through his deck I think I know what he’s going to search I’m not sure yeah is going to be the bonds yeah for sure um but what is he I believe it’s only a fluster fist in his graveyard that he can um actually take out yeah it’s pretty early in the game yeah with only two cards one of them being sensor and he blocked the he destroyed the Zephyr needle with that fluster fist in turn zero or turn one believe it was turn one um yeah looking like it’s going to be probably a bonds and then I feel like if he was going to play The Art of War he would have already done so so now it’s the case yeah so theer now is up to three mhm desend is now up to three drawing two cards banishing that cring so good banishing the tiger ah it reminds me of the days of banishing a phoenix flame yeah better cuz cards don’t even exist they’re ephemeral they’re ghosts they are real tigers in my mind yeah don’t don’t make them lesser as they are okay apologies um all right so then bonds coming in for free getting the discount from uh yeah at first I need to yeah right represent the the board State and the Damage two floating resources as well that 100 winds being blue is just so incredibly nice bonds 4 six so how much damage we represented nine so far and that’s the perfect combo right you have out of War you have ancestral Harmony and then you go off with your big combo turn mhm yep he hit his big combo turn first that’s a relevant point to make however we’re we still see that kro who has life total to leverage also has aror in his arsal um that’s why I was saying it’s you know it’s kind of a double-edged sword with banishing that um that Command and Conquer off the top of this ancestral Harmony because if you get to end this chain with the command and Conquer then you know now you really have options as Tom so yeah he’s going to go ahead and banish the uh fluster fist now K will start to evaluate blocking so both players are really in a tight position now um because with one big turn everything can change right Thomas down to 22 and with the right hand on kill’s side and then Tom may be having some no blocks in hand MH uh this can be an end yeah I mean without any sort of Arsenal disruption we are very likely going to see a um an Art of War turn come right back because we see the bonds in kless hand so this is definitely not over the I think the only really relevant thing is I do not believe K has any combo cards in graveyard any relevant ones anyway there comes the needle here comes the needle little bit of a probe a little test how good of a hand do you actually have K do you want a block with three block and it looks like yes blow it up with the fluster fist which is something you want anyway this is the you know the card this is the exact card that K needs to be in the graveyard so he’s happy to save that that for um for the ZR needle there comes the second needle yeah do you want to throw a second one down just get rid of those snap get it down get it out of here and the fluster fist K now wanting to to he’ll probably block it out yeah makes sense get the bonds and 100 wins now you’ve got plenty of options for your art War turn yeah Tom just making sure to use um the transcend card mhm gain a life get a chi and he also has another card in hand which he can then ARS y take a really small IP penalty holding on to that Chi but as we know Zen can just turn that right into another combo drawing back up to four and now K will do the same back to Tom is that another Art of War no I believe it’s a uh uh the rounds on me yeah and this rounds on me is U is a good option to play out even yeah absolutely it’s a it’s a risky card because on the one hand yes you get to give all the attacks minus one and so that you know disrupts things like uh couching Tigers MH um on the other hand doesn’t really disrupt I mean it kind of disrupts Zephyr needle um and the the problem with it though is that it can potentially draw an opposing Zen into a relevant combo piece oh yeah because both players draw cards that’s a mirrored effect yeah and so while it is very good and it it it shows up in a lot of these go wide ninja decks who um they really want to uh draw a card and and kind of screw their opponent over with go wide attacks it can kind of not matter if you accidentally draw your Zen opponent into their second arvore also these players are making sure to get hydrated together good you want to drink some water I’m going to drink some water right now yeah I’m and I wish Tom would lean like three Ines forward yeah that would be super great we know that he has a cheat in hand though so there’s really only three cards to evaluate it looks like levels yeah just making sure the numbers are right yeah yeah the turns get a little bit weirder now right because um because Tom no longer has the Zephyr needles to push some extra damage so I’m I’m assuming that it’s going to be some kind of pitch Chi for Zen activation find a combo piece maybe try and draw into something off of the this rounds on me yeah activating Zen at first getting a tiger I’m actually excited to go play some Zen of my locals now I feel like I’ve learned a lot over the last two days yeah you should definitely yeah but I got to buy the deck first yeah George Roger is commenting on no talar and uh not in this one at least we had a talar in the previous Zen match George yeah UK loving the Talisha yeah hey I love talesa that card is incredible man I’m just waiting to get fulfilled with the whole story about Telisha yeah it’s it’s super cool it’s a really really cool Tech card it makes so much sense in this matchup too because you don’t need in Zen you don’t need things like you know draconic chain links or anything you know you don’t need to get to x amount of chain links for cards to become more relevant you’re not playing stuff like salt the wound or no um tenacity or anything like that so it’s fine to just have like a big beat stick it’s looking like a is it a double bond turn did he grab a descendant gust wave descendant gust wave is being grabbed yep so he’s grabbing that so minimum double bond turn I believe that’s all he’s going to be able to get to though and there are two Blues so he can transcend again this turn yeah yeah levels is also life there’s the bond and it’s so just have the one floating from the Kaka um from the pedals right mhm yep yep exactly but he did Pitch that this round’s on me so there’s got not going to be another draw yeah just get the 100 wins yeah going to get the 100 wins it’s possible he ends up transcending this turn because he played that blue descending gust wave so there’s kind of no reason not to go into it Al so no equipment was being really Comm yet to block yeah I think K really likes his hand now I think he finally Drew into the hand he wanted he’s been sitting on that Art of War in Arsenal since like turn zero basically um and just the hands just have not been there yet they just keep not being there but he hasn’t transcended yet so he will not get the advantage at least not he can’t search mhm search for it with his headpiece y true and then LEL what a turn that’s nasty it’s not a nasty surprise but that’s definitely nasty so let’s see what is that 1 four 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 in damage threatened on this turn and then very casual kill is thinking about his shoes yeah he’s committing his shoes mhm getting a TIG on hand send mirrors are wild it’s like I refuse to block under any circumstances unless it’s on hit death and that’s really good really relevant here at the end of the turn because levels of Enlightenment there’s two blue cards in Pitch so that means he got to choose plus two and raw a card so he got an Arsenal off of that as well that’s huge huge also Tom can just grab a CH card from the deck when blocking with his headpiece yep yep he still has his headpiece to and he has an Art of War in hand and a levels of Enlightenment and another he has even two levels of Enlightenment yeah and Rising Sun this is kind of a do or die now oh draws an Art of War oh two a second Art of War in K’s hand and this is just what I was thinking about even when Thomas at third 23 with the right hand and the best extension that kill can think about he might be able to pull out a huge amount of damage in one turn but of course like Tom has his full equipment speed yep he’s he Tom is definitely in the driver’s seat um that second R of War represents some serious fear though it all depends on what is the remaining cards on his hand it’s kind of hard to tell from here I think he wishes he just could transcend with Zen now because if he can get oh that hurts for Tom even a double bonds turn yeah Tom is a wrinkling his nose a little bit oh boy why 100 wins and there is the transcend I think it’s steer the putt yeah I believe so yep it’s cat send so two out of Wars a five card hand now for kill mhm five card in hand plus two across all attack action cards this round or this turn excuse me and he does have a descendant descendant blue coming for three that’s perfect you can just steer the pot then right away if he likes mhm yep he can steer the pot yeah Tak transcend go grab bonds and now we’re actually in some fear town oh and there second transcend it’s the Drop in the Ocean mhm getting a resource of course yep gaining the resource off the casaya looks like K is a little nervous which is understandable I would be super nervous because I’m not sure if this is his first time on stream too so yeah yesterday was on okay cool producer Hiner coming in clutch telling us that Killa was on stream yesterday um but you know there’s still a lot to play for and in these super long combat chains even if you know the deck through and through and through you can still you know just slightly misalign the sequencing and miss out on a ton of damage but yeah two cards in Pitch relevant if he ends up having another levels of Enlightenment which I can’t see maybe Tom hands him over one of his levels yeah could be yeah just to just to be nice yeah just to be nice yeah now a lot of this depends on hand texture like if he’s got another Bonds in hand or if he has another descendant in hand yeah going off with the bonds of course now and Thomas being a gentleman here he going to go ahead and go for the mauling key muling G that’s the Ender like you said yesterday right mhm yep that’s like a you’re really happy to end your chains with something like that uh especially because uh K didn’t have to banish the Crouching Tiger yeah to uh to play his art of wars so he does have some of that Synergy going into this but also was thinking about Tom has an out of war in hand and we we were seeing so many out of wars being committed to defending in German Nationals do we see another one yeah I think we’ve seen more defensive art of wars on stream than we have offensive art of wars it’s been kind of wild actually 100 wins 100 wins coming in four four yeah and of course tiger stri is now the zeeper needle comes next for two Tom just taking a huge breath yeah just hoping that he doesn’t need to block but yeah I mean in the aggro match up you really want to be the first one to threaten lethal right like you you really want to be the first one to to force blocks yeah and oh it’s so scary though when you get down to these life totals because you can be committing your life to this and the tiger coming in for a casual too yep Tiger into the maing chi so kill is committing his equipment here of course yep H Tom sorry not K yeah Thomas just swiping off all of his equipment getting the tig off of his shoes and then also grabbing a chi from the deck yep yeah I mean you have to right I mean if this hits if the Ming Chi hits and a and the crouching tyer was the last combat then it deals you know one extra damage so it is just lethal it’s so it’s coming in for eight yeah if it hits yeah right it’s for seven at the moment but yeah so you really yeah just getting rid of all of that equipment yeah just see just stuffing 300 under the under theard I’ll just take the 300 and I will just stick it underneath my blue bonds of ancestry maybe these 300 EUR just save Tom’s life and makes makes him the winner of this game it could be yeah I mean now for sure 100% Tom’s going to be the one that gets to threaten like the really really relevant of course um lethal oh arore as you said earlier pitching the chi banishing the Crouching Tiger this is exactly where you want to be this round’s on me in hand I saw ah not really a card that you want to draw right off the aore no you want to just draw many attacks with go again yeah um so instead it’s going to be levels of Enlightenment obviously giving it go again and then transcending which will turn very likely into a nasty set of combo cards now both graveyards are so full with combo potential that it’s you know it’s not even relevant to banish anything anymore so second G in the pitch Zone Tom gets to take a quick look at what he’s allowed to go get out of the deck with his bonds which is also a problem with KATU right like katsu you could make the mistake of miscounting the number of like fluster fists that you have for example and like you could banish a fluster from your graveyard and you’re like oh actually I only have flu left uh oh um but you know in this you to just pit your G look through your deck and call it a a I don’t think any of these players have that problem though this is more of a me problem so levels is kind of powerful now it’s super powerful that card is so crazy because he got to do all of that at instant speed right yeah Z and also the transcend is at instance speed yeah so now he actually gets to choose two modes no cuz he’s already pitched he had already pitched for the for the levels but he has a second levels in hand oh does he if he shows us his hand one more time then we can be yeah we know he’s got a Crouching Tiger we know he’s got a this rounds on me and yet remains to be seen what the oh so it’s six go again those are the two modes that U Tom is choosing here mhm the equipment is being thrown in right away oh by K grab the chi quick Shuffle I’m desperately looking at Tom’s hand when it’s in frame I am pretty sure this ends in a Tom win here though based on what I’m seeing I think I even see a Bonds in his hand and if that’s the case then he can just so easily go into a descendant bonds descendant uh levels of Enlightenment yeah and so those um I of fidia Sev equipment was it was a good Flex yeah mhm it was the right choice oh and he also has a Crouching Tiger I mean this is this combat chain is going to go really wide they are both naked now mhm completely naked two Zen standing on a Mountaintop yeah come at me maybe there they’re in the Zen State too and they’re just in their mind right absolutely I do think that that is a bonds I think he has one Bonds in hand the senton coming in here oh think takes it away he might end up actually going to crouching tiger first kill is okay with that yeah it’s public information right that that that card is banish so it’s it’s not too relevant to reveal it and then take it back also I think this match is interesting if Tom gets to the top eight mhm he hasn’t won last year’s Nationals championship but none of the three national champions that we had yet are in I think for top eight yeah right so Tom could be the one who again yeah has the chance yeah gets his chance yeah to go to the finals oh okay so Tom actually jumped up to chat with a judge privately that’s quite interesting we can see them both fully framed yeah yeah thank you thanks for standing in frame appreciate it it must be quite an interesting question because the judge actually had to pull out his phone and call another judge over meanwhile k it’s just stewing plotting scheming I wonder what exactly Tom wants to talk privately about it has to be some kind of unique interaction between sequencing cards is coming in here to to right yeah that he doesn’t want kl to know about because obviously he wouldn’t want kl to know his sequencing yeah um but there could be somewhat of a surprise in order so what is happening now I think it’s like in the chat um when they’re talking about um Zen State being pushed and it comes on here that’s exactly the question I think M okay so Zen State pretty powerful now M preventing one damage yeah yeah this is really really relevant then a bonds grabbing 100 wins man that Zen State token KL is down to one and there are still a few cards left yeah I it’s it’s tough to say with 100% certainty that this game ends now um because Tom doesn’t have any way to extend the combat chain with his Zephyr needles um obviously because they’re both broken but blocking three yeah getting that Zen State token being able to prevent like some really relevant damage obviously like the most relevant damage um I still think that he’s going to be able to go wide enough depending on what’s in his Arsenal I mean he still has three cards in hand we have four cards on the combat chain mean there’s this one transcend card that gives plus one but Tom doesn’t have that right now right yep and if this goes to so this is going to go to all three modes right because he has three cards blue cards and Pitch exactly that’s Bonkers yep plus two draw card Ang go again maybe he draws the plus one no it’s a Ming key oh yeah I mean this game is this game is ended yeah I think so too there’s nothing that K can do there it is the fist bump end there it is Tom takes this game in the Zen mirror match very good very well played I mean that was a that was a lot of back and forth a lot of live training in the beginning Tom took quite a bit of damage in order to set up some of these turns yeah exactly meanwhile I feel like K just he just couldn’t get that first Art of War relevant early enough yeah he sat on it for a really long time as the hands just kind of kept pouring in and there was not really anything to he also had a hard time filling his graveyard at the beginning as well so we saw some you know like a full block uh to get the fluster fists and the bonds out of his hand just so we would have some fodder um um I’m pretty I’m not really sure again if he takes this transcend card from his graveyard again that he’s played in his first round um if that really was a good decision but yeah that was heat yep that was a that was a very tense close match with a lot of a lot of really interesting sequencing yeah oh okay 16 live tables still in round 12 oh yeah mm M okay okay yeah okay yeah this is a special moment for sure like uh soon we will know what player will go into top eight yeah all the players that uh that that that made the cut yeah um after 12 rounds of uh six CC rounds six draft rounds two drafts yeah um which is a brutal I mean that’s a grueling two days to get through to get here so it will be um it’ll be really interesting to see how how this shakes out because we know that there’s at least three that were locked right three locked for top eight um okay so y I’m going to get some water and then see if I can get an interview and we see us soon yep [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] so I am on stage here with Christian H so nice to see you again man how are you doing yes Alex thank you yeah nice to see you always nice to see you it’s been a while yeah that’s right that’s right we saw each other so many times in Flesh and Blood already but I think this occasion here is very special for you right um yeah first of all I love the Nationals like Nationals is my favorite tournament yeah because it’s a mixed format and uh you see all the guys from Germany like every they come together from oh yeah I’m sorry I’m sorry that’s good like you see all your friends and basically everybody is here yeah and it’s mixed format so it’s my favorite tournament and of course uh I won the first Nationals so yeah yeah always a special here the same location right it’s the same location so yeah special place to be yeah so you’ve been pretty early in flesh and blood at least for German standards and now we are a few years down the line after Monarch and how do you feel about the game how it’s evolved yes it’s changed a little bit I mean it’s still Flesh and Blood right but um players got more and more into the game now everybody knows how to play the basics in fles yeah so when I started it was really hard for people to just figure out their Basic 4 card turn cycle and uh you could win a lot of games just by doing the math and do the most damage out of your four counts now it’s basically it’s it’s just the basics you need to go deeper and deeper um we got more cards the game got more complicated and uh there’s also more RNG in the game as well to be honest especially now after Mist whale I feel like there’s more RNG in the game okay than there was ever before because all these consistent Heroes they’re not good positioned because they get basically High rolled by the RNG Heroes yeah and uh the RNG decks are very powerful but most games will be decided by some small RNG factors like when do you transcend turn one turn two or later which card do you discard with your flashbang block right or does as a layer find the knock of death whle on the opening hand when going first like there are so many examples yeah but these little things will decide the game more often than not and I think yeah this is basically there wasn’t that much RNG in the early days I feel like yeah okay and also the player the player base has grown uh what do you think about the player base these days compared to the early days oh yeah I mean there are more players definitely but we I don’t know how many people were the first Nationals there were some big number as well but we are definitely more players like I don’t know how many players they play in this St so I’m not exactly sure about the exact number but I think like overall Al the German community has grown not only the high competitive players but also the ones that go to armories I experience this myself local too yes yes yes that’s for sure that’s for sure I’m very happy about that it means the game is still growing yeah it’s still alive um it’s doing great like flesh and blood is better than ever before like it’s it’s still going so yeah I’m happy for the game yeah and talking about the next tournaments that come up not only the Nationals we have the Proto right in front of us right yes five FS four five FS Proto Amsterdam yeah yes I will be there yeah nice yeah yeah I will be there I will be playing so more flesh and blood coming next yeah I’m excited yeah and also Japan is on the Flesh and Blood B now too like what do you think about that yeah yeah I love Japan uh I’ve been there twice and I’m excited to go there for WS yeah um I wasn’t sure if I go to WS or not because you know I’m a little bit travel sick and if it’s too far away I don’t like to go there yeah know but I definitely love Japan it’s one of my favorite places to be I love the food I love the culture I love everything about it so the world championships in Osaka it’s yeah it’s worth spending a PTI I guess yeah yeah it’s worth for sure for sure so coming back to Nationals where we are now top eight will be announced soon it’s only one and a half minutes on the clock and we have Tom tidex in the last game on stream he was in the finals of last year’s Nationals championship he lost against Marcel but uh what do you think can Tom a player like Tom make it to the finals again or even take it this year what even need to play I have yeah he he is on Zen but usually we were talking about for example you as the national champion the first years and then also the two other national champions but none of you have made it to the top eight but do you think a player could at some point make it to win like two national championships sure why not yeah we saw that in Spain for example yes yes for sure like I have no doubts I don’t know him personally I I haven’t uh seen him play but yeah I mean it’s a great result it looks like he’s locked for top eight then right he’s he seems so too yeah I think so too so yeah why not yeah sure and flesh and blood in general I think it’s really nice that we get to together here together just to see each other and then play these great games yes yes I’m happy about it yeah all right do you have any last words for the stream oh I don’t know guys enjoy the stream um hope you get to see a nice top eight some exciting games uh decided by I don’t know hopefully not that many RNG flips yeah enjoy all right thanks man thanks Alex nice to see you [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] a [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] and we’re here yeah we are here right on stage um the standings will be here soon and I’m super stoked to see it yeah me too I’m actually like jittery like I’m moving around um let’s go so we’re hopefully going to get the reveal with the players right behind us yeah I think the on the big screen we can see it already wow there it is yeah team value vampires are in for sure elas and yonas both taking the first and the second place wow you can see it let’s go all right I’m back again wow very cool yeah all right so who about in The Ninth Place oh very close for so many players yeah it is relevant up to 12 right I think very interesting too um makes it into the top eight yeah Adam matei he’s from Poland actually now living in Germany and he’s making it to the top eight German Nationals right away wow yeah like straight out of straight out of Poland straight to top eight damn that’s crazy really nice it’s wild too that so the first match of the day we have ilas and we have yonas and then they’re still top two and maybe like when we Slide the monitor around we can see our top eight standing here oh yeah nice very nice Kevin Zer boo Tom okay so what does this mean for uh Heroes then we have Zen Leva zen zen zen zen I’m not sure maximilan Schmidt what is what is he playing uh I am not sure either but I believe it’s oh no there’s two Leva right because Kevin sanker was on levia as well oh and also we have uh Enigma in the top eight with Adam then ah okay so an enigma couple of Zen and uh wow oh yeah Kevin TKA will come in for the photo not he’s always outside that’s so funny all right very good well all right I think that this is actually going to conclude it for me um and and Alex you’re going to stick around for a a little bit I assume a little I will be here a little bit um for sure yeah but uh I will leave soon sadly yeah I need to drive home working tomorrow so um yeah but we’re leaving you guys in good hands because uh Ian and Jimmy are ready to go to do the top eight matches exactly and um so yeah this has been a super awesome experience I think we’ll just leave the top a photo up for a little it was amazing thank you so much it was awesome it was super good man it was it was so much fun man things yeah great casting partner um so yeah I hope you guys have a great top eight hope you guys enjoy the rest of the stream uh and uh yeah so we’ll pass it over to I guess the top eight photo and then on Jimmy and uh Ian for the analysis that’s right all right have a good day yep see you hello guys and we’re back in the booth we’re back after taking a long nap after yesterday did you see all the exciting faces over there all the yells all the tears yeah actually they’re very hyped for the top eight announcement it was pretty cool to see mhm but yeah we’ll continue soon with the coverage of the top eight I don’t know exactly what the representation is yet I think I think we’re slowly working on a top eight representation uh graphic for that um but meanwhile Jimmy what your morning this is the this is the worst day I’ve ever seen in my life so we were we’re going to have breakfast in the morning M because the other guys were streaming because the other guys work hard and they actually got here at 8 8 a.m. yep we got to sleep we got to sleep longer so we went to have breakfast and then we we looked up a breakfast place and we drove there then with a walk there and then I fell off the curb I scraped my knee I bent my ankle I like I’m dying but it’s okay cuz we’re going to have breakfast soon right mhm so we it’s like 200 more meters so we’re we’re almost there might as well might as well go there and uh have a scene and maybe I’ll stop suffering and then the place was closed yep qu the bleeding a little bit nope they lied to me I can’t believe they lied to me said on the on the door opening times 8:00 8:30 yeah yeah yeah on Sundays yeah yeah yeah so it should have been open at 8:30 on Sunday it was definitely after 8:30 on Sunday I can tell you that yep they were like okay maybe this other place next to it is open it says it’s open 24 no no okay sure okay and then we ended up going to the same place we were yesterday basically where like a small bakery we did have pretty good breakfast there though I mean we probably should have just gone there in the first place but maybe your adventurous mind somehow had a great plan to torture me it kind of worked out someone was complaining about um something about H not being meat or so do you did you say that ham is not meat maybe maybe maybe someone did I think Ian said if he was a vegetarian or a vegan he would eat ham I think that’s what you said yeah pretty much that’s interesting statement but it’s okay I’m I’m kind of alive now yeah but back to the to the Flesh and Blood Nationals oh right we were doing that um I think uh we did see on number one we saw yonas yeah was piloting Zen I think was the zenme around 12 or round 11 um I think that was round number 12 right I think there was a needle mirror around 12 mhm yeah the acupuncture mirror the acupuncture mirror y acupuncture mirror mhm that’s pretty funny actually yeah they just keep poking each other and they gain life from it we supposed to stop the poking at some point yeah at some point one of you is supposed to be the bigger that to be like I’ll give you a three block for your sephron I mean after you took the first few needles to the face you don’t really want to block it anymore right what you call it’s a little bit too late what do you call this something something fallacy yeah I mean it’s not even a fallacy at that point you just don’t get that much value out of it anymore yeah you you probably block the first one yeah it’s either you can block the first one or well you take the next five six four five six it’s very awkward if you keep not blocking it you’re going to take like8 to 12 or more from the Zep needle yeah that’s a lot needles in a mirror are very very scary so and they have a slight Edge over tesar and that you can like you can split them so you one resource you can still needle but you could tesar and they have go again I guess so the de construction is a little bit different I feel like I saw a lot of situations where uh needles would have gotten value where [ __ ] wouldn’t mhm um so you you clearly see the awkward part part of uh of the of the talar a little bit mhm or for example the game versus uh the game with Zen versus Leva mhm I saw tesar at like one counter at the end of the game I’m like H that’s kind of sad I feel like maybe more value was gotten with a with a needle yeah but also don’t remember if uh if needle if there was one floating that often so I mean it’s usually the argument against the Tor it’s like oh you only have three attacks yeah and but it’s actually wow I have three attack it does 12 that’s pretty cool mhm cuz that’s uh that’s all you need if you’re Zen yeah but sometimes you just end every turn with a CNC and you’re like oh well I guess I don’t T I don’t use my weapon this turn I guess I guess that’s one of the maybe drawbacks of tailoring your deck to flow two and then be able to convert to two mhm sometimes you have better things to do with your two instead of tesar I mean four for two is pretty good I’m not complaining mhm personally I really liked having a CH on in my deck just to be able to search off with uh with a Zen ability mhm because sometimes you just have like two floating for no reason at the end of the turn even if you weapon yeah that that was pretty awkward with Y see you Dylan’s running home back to his wife to demo some more Thrive games I think back to Goran to ganian to it was great seeing you Dylan what was it I say what were you say command and Conquer tesar CH Unleashed ah CH Unleashed that’s like the drawback cuz most list aren’t playing like the full set of G Unleashed mhm they’re playing like zero or one I think it’s very rare to see three I like one one is a good number I like that you can search it with Zen mhm sometimes you just have two floating and you can’t make two tigers to make a 741 chase the tail it just means you can’t search it with bonds but it’s not the end of the world sometimes it would have been nice but yeah it’s another thing you need to have in the grave before you can actually search it so mhm and you don’t really want to draw it on a hand where you don’t have a tiger so where you’re not Zen searching I like two copies as well but hey I’m also not a Zen player so what do you mean I thought you said you had a dream where you were playing Zen at Nationals and destroying everyone oh yeah I am good luck finding a new deck Jimmy it’s okay I’m playing in Canadian national okay I’m Nia Cana actually I think Canadian national is one of the harder Nationals in the world I don’t think it’s a good idea to move to that one yeah next week There’s Canadian Nationals Dutch Nationals yeah which other Nationals are there I don’t remember I think Japanese Nationals also Hong Kong Hong Kong still hasn’t been yeah and so probably some more European countries oh right there were already a couple of Nationals finished uh today mhm I believe Was Won by Dash in the finals between Dash and Zen I wonder if Dash is that it’s like very favorite in suzan at the moments so you’re going to play Zen I’m going to play Dash Okay some it’s not going to work out I thing do you know who won New Zealand Nationals I don’t remember the name I saw Matt Rogers top eight it right or didn’t he not top eight I didn’t see the standings I think he was literally eighth I scrolled this scrolled through a little bit this morning through the which games we’re playing in were being played in top eight and if Kiki was in there but nope Kiki was ninth unlucky Kiki Kiki we’re sorry you shouldn’t have joined stle it has this guy oh no this guy loves being ninth who who would have who would have imagined getting ninth twice in a row in naal kind of maybe Kiki is better than you at being ninth no no ninth twice in a row for Pro is a little bit worse well at least my team Ninth Place is shaping up pretty good now well you can also ask to I can add Kiki now I have you I have uto Suzuki Dorena player from Japan who got ninth in Worlds I have Alan la oh I hear that we have the brackets oh we have brackets who can I who can I add to my Ninth Place team I’m recruiting actively oh I can’t see it oh and we see on the top part of the bracket Jonas on Zen versus Adam on Enigma you the two levas made it so Kevin Zanker versus Tom tidex Leva versus sen and also ilas caraman on Leva against Rip Tide Hano I I heard Hano had this sick uh showdown between another Hano to to to play like uh they were both nine wins at that point mhm and I played for who was a better Hano and apparently the better Hano yep where did the other Han he’s currently the best in Germany I thought 93 was guaranteed top eight though I think maybe it was round no it wasn’t round maybe it was round maybe it was round nine and they played against other that’s possible yeah so in the end this is the better Hano congratulations you get to keep the title for at least one year yeah and then we see uh boino on new versus Maximillion on new and it seems like this is also a better Maximillian than Maximillian Klein this time around that’s a bold statement you got there that’s a bold statement but I guess if this is our metric then that’s true yeah yeah yeah yeah sorry Max there’s only two Zen in top eight I felt like at some point thought there were three or four at some point I was tracking it and was like oh there’s like five Zen in the top eight decks and then uh like two Leva and like the rest I didn’t really know what they were playing mhm but it seems like an enigma and a rip side and a couple of news managed to sneak in unfortunately the news are facing off each other instead of the Zen also we cannot have a Zen mirror for finals that’s good yeah cuz uh well they could meet in semi-final still MH but there’s no it will be Zen or not Zen against something else for sure yeah but that’s a good thing right pretty yeah pretty looking forward to to seeing how this bracket ends up it’s kind of it’s going to be hard to predict can go it can go a lot of ways mhm is not that easy for Zen L is a lot of damage output if you find the right cards and not at the same time with the double Art of War blood bow anding beat indeed we saw we saw this game in round 10 I believe or round 11 between Kevin Zanker and Jon so where um at some point Kevin just held a blood rush Bellow in hand and then Drew up found Art of War Art of War and barraging Beatdown was like wait this this hand does literally nothing this hand is all my good cars but it literally doesn’t do anything if there was one attack action in there it would have been like some kind of Art of War art ofar I mean double Art of War isn’t even that good and you pitch one Art of War play the other Art of War banish the last non attack attack probably hopefully then hopefully you draw Attack actions and you get to blood R bow and you have like go again from The Art of War mhm and then your turn actually does something this didn’t do anything that’s also a bit awkward cuz if you aror and blood rushing the same term usually when you blood rush you want to use claws right cuz they’re five for two go again mhm but if your art ofar doesn’t necessarily help you with this I mean art ofar uh helps you with getting go again on your attack actions usually Leva uses the go again mode because the plus one is very hard to convert mhm so yeah makes sense so it’s it’s kind of fine in your blood rush turn yeah then if you have a big hand you can probably convert pretty well and usually with Savage sash you can you can get something going I forgot we’re in the Savage sash Universe yeah we’re not in the caran husk Universe anymore nope we’re now I mean blocks three it’s half of carrying husk and you don’t lose life for it I mean you’re trying to not lose life for it anyways if you’re Leva but I thought one cool play in the past with K and husk was that you can transform into uh Blas plasma Fett mhm and then still have like plus n life or something something from your armor yeah so it’s like you’re not really a 13 life hero you’re like a 24 life hero or something yeah yeah but yeah I think uh I think versus Zen we have moved away from that kind of play pattern mhm I’m not too sure if um if levas are still running K and Husk in this in the 80 but I can’t really imagine if it’s not versus aggro into which other deck you would play carry and husk right yeah cuz you usually you play carry and husk if you get the value out of it if you’re aggro racing if you’re playing like a super slow matchup like the guardian matchup is okay once maybe question mark if you’re against Bravo yeah that might be good because you can prevent like crippling crush on hit but Bravo hasn’t really seen a lot of play in this meta yeah the Guardians kind of got chased out of this meta a little bit even if you were to play guarden you have like the new kid on the Block Victor who got a new house yep congratulations Victor he just phit visits his parents gets some gold gets a lot of might as well it’s a pretty nice house yeah just has gold lying around that’s pretty cool yeah I mean just just ask your parents and you shall receive I guess I’ll try that uh later today yeah I’m not sure if that works with Asian parents Jimmy well you never said that do you have other parents Jimmy I can try to get adopted maybe I guess that works yeah maybe I could get adopted by Victor’s parents but I kind of wonder what uh what do you think will be the final matchup in the end we saw an enigma versus Zen I probably Zen wins against should be winning into Enigma I mean it’s all a numbers game anything can happen but I would say Zen is favorite into Enigma Zen versus Levi I can’t tell it’s such a 50/50 I don’t it’s like an agro match right but Le has a lot more armor um if Leva gets to transform into Blas M fet that’s probably very good mhm uh it’s kind of sick that Kevin Zanker can take out both sents before the finals in theory I think the it’s like a 50/50 a little bit Yeah well you can just win two 50/50s I do think Enigma has some chance sometimes you just need yeah to have things Lin up very well and like you need to have this big blue dragon that hits for eight yeah yeah yeah exactly that one’s pretty good just need to hit them for eight sometimes it sticks around even and it’s like sometimes 16 it feels so good it doesn’t feel good playing against it it feels so good for one of them that’s true and then you have ripip side I have no clue I would say Levi but I don’t know for sure yeah um so levia has a couple of things that become bigger she has a couple of things they have go again yeah so stuff like inertia trap stuff like tarpet trap I mean tarpet trap doesn’t even do anything really you do one damage filty trap helps a bit against against claw against blood rush claws so stuff matters sometimes give me a five for zero but you can bu saw an endless M down to to six it’s just that Lev has a lot of damage output if you get enough space but we saw the rip I don’t know if this riptile is kind of the same but you’re usually playing the disruption arrows at least yeah but but there’s also the fact that you can armor block as a brute and then you you just go and sometimes you you build a big enough lead that you maybe maybe aelia is a good match up for kry and husk oh yeah that makes sense yeah because you have a big dominate Arrow mhm and you kind of Leverage a lot to do that not always but you you kind of hinge on it helping you win the game and you get blocked for nine with the husk and a card and you’re like oh what do you think will win on the new match in the new mirror they might get bored it might draw oh actually it’s not that boring but there’s a lot of daggers for one probably coming I’m not sure how the match what that match up would be looking like it’s uh I haven’t seen it too much do you play t reacts you don’t really play t reacts if you’re new right I think so you just get you just get attack reacted you you just take it yeah so then it might depend on who gets their big on hits first and in snowballs like that but I I don’t know it’s hard to tell what would the the tiebreaker be I think you probably have like DX and sideboard at least I think you run sinks and Fates overall that would make sense cuz it’s kind of like a more slower deck a controlly deck you don’t get too much value from your opponent banish unless they for some reason didn’t board out their levels of enlightenments and uh you have surgical as well you only have so many sideboard slots right yeah would you really commit a lot of your sideboard slots for the new mirror specifically no but you can still board out your Blues because you’re pretty high on Blues yeah so you so stuff like the DRX go when the strong Blues go out I don’t think there’s that many strong Blues besides levels and surgical you can get the what’s it called B of Agony B of Agony is but you kind of need that to win also I think it might be hard to to do like triple reacts after already activating new but maybe in like second cycle or something I’m not too sure what that match up is looking like it sounds kind of interesting it sounds interesting to watch um I wonder if we Herer did we have like any matchup decided already or is it like possible to ask a chat okay so we’re trying to get ilas versus Hano be rip side Leva match up I think never seen that before for sure it’s very rare I think lav just goes over but I don’t know yeah in my imagination I feel like I underestimate rip Side by quite a lot though maybe like I I just can’t really imagine how how Riptide wins against certain decks and sometimes but sometimes he just pings them down constantly like one thing that’s really cool in this matchup as well it’s like sometimes Leva just purposely doesn’t banish a card so that she hits uh plasma feds mhm through blood dead and then RTI just PS them for one and suddenly they can’t turn into blaset anymore that’s pretty nasty actually because usually they’re trying their best to get to exactly 13 and usually it’s kind of fine to do that mhm like you either take blood tap there or you you block specifically in a way that you go to 13 yeah but you can get messed up by the Trap that’s true we’ll see that we’ll have to see if that happens to really I’m also not sure if this rip side is the same one as we saw before where they uh where we running what’s the bow called Barbed Cast Away Barbed Cast Away yeah never seen that one before flips up and it loads on instant yeah like I I expected to see rip ties play either dreadbore or um death dealer mhm because death dealer such a good value weapon right yeah and usually you you don’t play Too Many yeah usually one resource cards M so getting to draw back one card after loading it’s like it’s basically like you’re loading for free yeah but yeah cycling um but there were some cool plays that I saw in that game uh where you just load during your opponent’s turn yeah I think he got to load arrow on turn zero and you get to play like New Horizons so you can have like two arsenals um I think drip sites in general do that quite often mhm because it just lines up very well you can just do like death dealer then play an action card from hand with go again load with your rip TI hero ability and then shoot an arrow from there mhm um usually you don’t have enough go again H you do have a couple of Bolton shots and like falcon wings or something but you’re not too happy to play this yeah it looked a bit awkward I think I was watching the Riptide game against Kiki I think it was a rip against Kiki and he kept having to shoot like first Arrow into the oh I saw from the New Zealand Nationals yeah you’re right you’re right I kept he kept having to shoot his first thing to the Spectra and he’s like ip2 ip3 basically so it does hurt that you don’t have enough go again arrows yeah I kind of imagine this uh I kind of Imagine Hano being on the death dealer dread plan mhm since it’s the more popular one I haven’t seen I haven’t seen anyone played warp Cast Away so far so that’s pretty cool it is very cool he got he got an arrow to zero and then he he reloaded or he uh he got to six hand and murky Waters also kind of a sick card with uh you get to banish three traps at random or like you get to banish three traps and then you choose you put one in random so you just pick three of the same trap and you get the one you get you want it that’s pretty cool he was like yeah I vanished three tarpet traps I wonder what I’m going to get do you even die roll in this situation for BM yeah he did I guess you would do that too yeah I would also do that it’s funny you can also put like all your legendary traps there and get one of those that’s also pretty good mhm but if you get something guaranteed I guess it’s also pretty nice yeah one of the things is that your opponent still gets to know what’s in Your Arsenal right and they can play around that by never uh playing a card that’s higher power for example or never playing a card with go again I mean you’re pretty Happ if your opponent never plays a card with go again of course yeah but maybe they have a huge attack and they don’t need go again or they block down and they play midrangey like that and at least Rift TI still has trench so he can get rid of the trap in Arsenal but you know it’s it’s still a thing that you should you should keep into account you prefer playing your legendary stps instead of just cycling them away yeah makes sense is there any other surprises we see here we have no aelia no Koo no no no no yeah it seems like the brutes I mean in the representation there were like wasn’t there a lot of ko here I thought there was a lot of ko and Lev I thought there was like 22 in total between the two of them yeah I think it was like 13 plus n yeah something like 13 KO nine Leva and none of the KO made it and none of the KO made it yeah cuz I think KO was the 13 and Lev was the nine so that’s pretty that’s pretty spicy no prism no prisms but there were only four so it was kind of unlikely and Leon was one of them and he um what are you going to say here he um are you going to blast Leon on the German national stream yeah sure why not I’m sorry Leon I couldn’t stop him I was I was I asked him if he was sure but he was sure what can I do I I was looking through his draft deck he was like yeah was in a wait wait I don’t think we can talk about his draft EG I I saw one good card I mean I saw four good cards I mean you but three of them didn’t work with his deck you can call fastball travel a good card I think it’s a good card yeah R would agree it’s just not the best in Enigma I mean yeah yeah like yeah I guess so when like when your deck consists of like 24 RS and six attacks I don’t think pathw travels will line up too well it’s a bit awkward it’s one of those awkward ones where it’s pretty good if you get it off especially with the blue mystic cards or like the four for zero is also fine or like a 6 for two or Blan or Battlefield Bastion anything M but sometimes you you you need to transcend start of turn and you’re like but I can’t I need to pitch one of them for my weapon if I want to transcend but then I don’t have one of them anymore yeah and it does it’s kind of clunky sometimes mhm overall I think this is still like one of the better transcend cards for sure they’re uh you need a pretty high blue count to make the pathw travel thing work I think I mean you need a lot of the blue mystic attacks this your ideal Target yeah but also you what do you need in hand to pull that off you need to have like four blues basically because you need to pitch one to play the blue attack just play play path traveled and then play another blue attack preferably just play 30 Blues it’s possible it’s possible I mean you could also do like droplet path into seven that’s also pretty good yeah oh yeah and then you just don’t use that’s a three card hand you can pitch the chief for uh the second’s kind of sick in that case interesting there’s a bunch of good good blue cards blue three cost I think the blue three cost also block three occasionally so and there’s also like the rare cycle that one of them also gives plus two if you transcend it but you will transcend mhm and one of them has go again which you care a little bit less about if you P but you have more transcend cards maybe so and they also block three I like block threes yep block threes block three I don’t think Ian has ever said through or words than this unless you’re under assert and assassin dagger then block three still block three at least we don’t need to take take those we might see it into into new match up do you play that dagger you probably play one misplay one something it’s probably not skill peeler spider bite spider spite maybe the reaction One Nerf scle oh that’s possible yeah although what do you want them to block with you want them to block with the I don’t think you care what they block with I think you usually want to take two of their cards H right just play both spider Spite and Nerf skull pool don’t play misplay I don’t know I’m not smart enough for this match up it’s okay they can figure it out for us yeah and then we can talk about it as if we thought about it but we’re not watching this on stream Jimmy if they don’t come on stream we don’t have to talk about a you’re right you’re so smart sometimes thank you that’s the nicest thing you ever said to me is there anything else spicy that happened here I mean personally we’re sad that fit didn’t make it but I think I had a rough first draft and it’s very it’s hard to come from that far behind I think it was like 3 three I think he one two at his first draft Yeah it was 2-1 into one two I think 21 in CC and then one two in draft mhm it’s possible you need to three the second draft which he did which he did but then you also need to three 0 the CC after which he didn’t yeah it’s it’s hard you don’t have any more mistakes to make if you get into that situation at least it’s nice that they manag to uh have like this exact clean cut where everyone has nine wins here oh really yeah oh that doesn’t always happens usually like a eight win sneaks in mhm I think we’ve seen it multiple times we saw it in New Zealand Belgium had multiple sneak in because it was a slightly smaller Nationals but yeah that’s kind of nice CU you’re not expected to necessarily get a clean cut here playing more Swiss rounds than you would normally play when this with this amount what other nuts were there I think Australian nuts also finished I don’t remember if if it was send that one dead or not I don’t know either I didn’t watch it yeah I forgot it’s okay yeah let me think is there anything else what else can we talk about again Jimmy what I was going to say is that at least he got two booster boxes I think top 24 gets booster boxes here like two of them mhm up to eight or 12 probably up to 13 not 12 but um it might be up to didn’t do I do think I think until top 12 it’s uh travel comp you mean top down from from from 1 to 12 it’s travel comp and below that it’s booster boxes you get two booster boxes I mean I guess normally you would get a decent amount of money too mhm not that I would know you would I won’t find out next week wait did you make top 24 last time I got like 12 you got in a money right I got like 12 you could have been invited for world wrong year wrong year cuz we didn’t have the top 12 worlds invitation this year maybe this year it’s kind of cool that we did this year though we still don’t know what the reasoning is behind that they announced a team cup thing but they then they didn’t announce anything about the team cup did they announce the team cup thing yeah yeah oh okay I think it’s on a national page or was it already on a World’s page it’s definitely somewhere on the Fab TCG page I might get James White angry calling me in like 5 Seconds but I’m pretty sure it’s on there please please maybe it would be cool to see something like uh but I don’t know I I I just can’t can’t really imagine how you would do something like that with teams it would have to be like on Sunday cuz most of the people are still playing worlds Friday Saturday so you’d have to make it a one day event probably on Sunday or it’s part of the world structure but that kind of sucks I think that sounds pretty rough I’m not sure yeah I mean we’re going to add three team rounds now I kind of trust that James White uh manages to think of something that makes it feel that makes it like feel good mhm I think it’s a one day event on Sunday but you might be right maybe they do something spicy and it’s included in World mhm but Ian how are the teams going to be divided I have no idea it’s pretty interesting you could do like 1 3 4 6 uh 7 9 10 12 or you could let them make their own own teams I don’t know what more interesting I feel like it’s more fun if you can make your own teams just because you care more about like who’s winning like I care about me myself winning always we need two more people sometimes you’re just paired with people that you just don’t like and you’re like ah yeah I don’t I don’t really feel like winning that much but then there will probably be like one or two teams that get assembled naturally and the rest it might be a struggle I don’t know mhm who knows maybe it all works out maybe it’s just one one or two teams per country or something but then it doesn’t make sense that you have top 12 unless it’s a big team my assumption was that it was three O’s but it might not be three might be quads I mean maybe 12 is div divisible by three and four so I think there’s also some top eights and some top 16s that qualify to to world so but like there’s always people that get qualified and still don’t go because of like monetary issues so but like quads is weird because you you you have an even number so if you two two it’s kind of weird whereas in three hour you always kind of have someone who wins as long as you finish all your game this is where the draw tie breaker comes in how do you make a draw tie breaker I no we just intentionally draw yeah this is not the best idea this the best idea if you don’t want to play anymore on Sunday I guess yeah it’s okay yeah hey yeah want to be on a team no see I’m not one of the people he will want on his team anyway feels bad man I’m going to go to Canada again wait Canadians wouldn’t want me either where am I going home Vietnam home I’m going to go to Vietnam do you have friends in Vietnam no okay surely I could find a team there you’ll manage you’ll be fine Jimmy thank you that’s actually the nicest thing he ever said to me mhm we had a team cup uh Osaka you’re already locked for Osa no or well not really depending if you start throwing at some point but you’re like safe on Elo at the moment I think I’m rank 14 right now oh you went up yeah I went up because people were uh playing Nationals silly people you I knew I I know you went to Poland with copium and you came back from Poland you were like 19 and you were like two or three or four I naged like 100 plus ELO there and then you somehow you got back to 14 without doing anything yeah that’s pretty funny it’s uh it’s rough on on on the top you get like especially with Nationals the ELO is it’s like k equals 32 or something something oh really and if you’re on top that basically means you’re minus 30 you’re plus one and that’s that’s pretty rough cuz you’re not expected to win 32 to one oh it’s it seems like we finally have a game ready or where are we going I don’t know where we’re going are we finding elas versus Hano this looks does look like an elas on the right so it must be a Hano on the left we also see a Riptide on board they’re currently studying the deck list uh I wish I could study alone with him looks like he has like 20 decklist or is it just his own sideboard guide there cuz I do see a sideboard guide I don’t see elos holding any deck but usually for big tournaments like this for top eight you get 30 your opponent’s deck list so that’s pretty cool you get to uh theorize a little bit what their plans would be Inc you and the other way around has a plan into them and you get to uh cross off some things that you might have to take into account it’s like a 5center that they run it and if they don’t have it in the ad8 at all you don’t need to think about it anymore this looks like a sideboard guy this looks like a fabruary print out with a sideboard guide it seems like it’s just just their own sideboard guide right now that they’re studying just uh because of how how the rules work in fles bud you got to do you got to you get to make a sideboard guide for yeah you can reference it in the pregame and you can’t look at it anymore after I think after you present but I don’t know yeah at least once you start the game this is very convenient because like you get to do more preparation uh without needing to like memorize everything and like there’s already a lot of things on your mind at that point right MH you’re you’re trying to play your best game sometimes you’re trying to remember your pitch stack for certain reasons or uh knowing like knowing what threats are still in your deck that takes a lot of mental space so being able to take that off of your off of your mind is like pretty nice do you see that I didn’t see that what happened you show the eye of AIA proxy oh yeah I saw that he’s playing IE yeah he’s playing I oh that’s crazy um I’m not so sure if it’s good or not it’s a blue it’s like it’s it’s always like sometimes it’s just a whiff on your hand yeah but least Le levia doesn’t have those mechanics where you draw this card random cards it would hurt a lot more if you’re playing it in ko. for example yeah it is pretty bad in Ko so maybe it’s good in L you still have some draw do you still some draw disc card effects it’s mostly usable for Art of War or uh or blood rush battle basically I mean getting to set up your draw for AR for is pretty nice I guess IIA also gives you some deck velocity uh in that you find your blood rush battles and Art of War a little bit earlier it might be necessary into zen for example where games go that fast that you just need to find your threats as soon as possible mhm but I don’t really know how how well it plays out it’s really hard to tell we’re about to find now mhm oh looks I do see a car Husk in a side oh but this is I think that’s the equipment he’s not playing right I thought I saw no run gloves in I did see nor room in there but he also hasn’t put uh equipments out yet so I feel like that’s the list of things he’s not running I I would imagine that Curry and husk is one of the equipments that you would want to run in this matchup just because of I don’t know covering a remorseless or so I I’m not even sure if s go fast that’s also possible Savage sash has so much value Savage sash go fast the KO Army deck power up was so huge but it’s pretty funny how that went though it’s like oh my God the KO Armory deck is the most broken thing in the world we we’re never goingon to beat KO again what are we gonna do and then you get Zen and you’re like dude Zen is so broken what KO is so bad KO loses into zen why would you play K it’s so funny how that works I’m very interested to see how the how the other Armory decks will shape up for the new decks yeah we’re going to get the Bolton one before the pro tour so it probably will do something mhm I’m sure Ellie is very excited and then we have the rip side oh I mean aelia Armory deck afterwards I mean you probably can use them for both yeah all of the cards pretty much look like they they were designed for rip side but we we will see if uh like the aim counter cards it always felt like uh judge jury executioner needed more support in terms of aim counters so I would be glad to see if aelia can finally play that card it looks I forgot that card existed yep I I do remember this card existing now maybe there’s hope for judge jury it’s uh yeah right now it’s a bit unfortunate that you need to find it off the top to give it a an aim counter with Crows Nest mhm and as a oneoff it’s kind of hard to randomly find it you can knock it to the top and sometimes they still just block it out it’s uh it’s a little bit awkward um lost my internet oh no for Riptide I think riide will be very happy with the boots as well I think it’s like what do the boots do again I think it’s the boots that give go again to a card with an aim counter on it oh that’s pretty good mhm so you can basically give your your arrow go again cuz we were talking earlier about how that might be one of the issues mhm not enough go again is a big issue I mean boots are usually the slot that somehow gives go again in most yep Heroes most people just play Snap Dragons yeah which is always good of course mhm but if you have a Snap Dragons also blocks for one that’s that’s a little bit better yeah for sure um then there was arms that put an aim counter on something and I don’t remember what the rest did but oh it might be in here oh thank you February oh it’s even for free as an attack reaction okay yeah the boots get destroyed so it’s kind of like SN Dragon one yeah yeah pretty much but that’s good enough and then arms make you load something with that a counter and H battle war and then the Hat probably doesn’t get played on hit draw one but no block mhm and you need to do it beforehand because it’s an action speed and it’s also like you need to not Play balance of Justice or New Horizons or scone cross rep so so usually I don’t I don’t think it will be seeing play but the other two are great mhm you finally get some arms at block some legs at block but it is whenever an arrow with an aim counter hits that’s true that’s true so you might draw more than one card off that I mean I don’t know how often that happens but maybe eventually there will be like a crazy deck that’s like go again aim counter all the time imagine if you can do like uh endless Arrow rapid fire oh my God it’s like I don’t know how you got the aim counter yet it’s like force of nature in Brier you just keep drawing yeah it’s kind of hard to we have a short PCG ad coming up before we start this game or before we start this game yeah well there’s still shuffling their cards we have a small little ad uh we would like to thank our production sponsor PCG for making this possible um pretty much everyone should have probably already known about PCG right now yeah I think so I think they’re the player slabs are really convenient compared to the The Collector slabs or like the classic slabs that we get from bgs or PSA I usually have my equipment in player laabs now I’m also submitting some more cards after this because I farm half of the Netherlands CS here but yeah we have this we have this good service uh at German Nationals where you can just uh submit them at German Nationals and then pick them up again at proor Amsterdam which is very convenient for Dutch people and for German people and for German people yeah but I guess we’re hopping into the game right now um it seems like rip TI is starting with a death de wait he’s a shuffle back quiver right yeah you don’t need the other quiver because you’re on uh trench so ah you don’t actually need another way to to bottom your cards from Arsenal he’s actually playing Falcon Way and he’s playing New Horizons as well I didn’t expect them to play Falcon Way makes sense it’s a go again Arrow it’s basically something that I’ve been uh playing around with like from the start as well because rip side can do a lot of reloading with his uh with his hero power mhm so you can just play like a card from hand and preferably you have a go- again card and you play just a lot of four for zeros or like uh zero cost arrows wait we’re already starting off with an Art of War yeah that’s why I that’s why I opened my eyes wide you couldn’t see it on stream but I I was looking at J he was like uhoh something’s happening but he pitched a yellow so it might not be super broken yeah and also um most of the cards that laeva plays aren’t even playable during turn zero right but I wonder what he’s going to do it seems like just a CNC with go again oh did he choose go yeah I guess he did choose go again and just followed up with the manable claw most likely I don’t remember what Aral is going to be it seems like a barraging beat down not the spiciest turn one ever so we got nine but does certain two Arsenal cards not one Arsenal card yeah right probably has to block six here but he has two rain razors in hand wait I think he has a trap and a trap he’s a trap and two Rain r in no it’s so D oh no this is the this is that situation where you’re like this CNC is so bad and then your your Hano right now you’re like this [ __ ] CNC is so good why is it so good he’s laughing you can see him smiling he’s like you don’t know what you did to me you don’t know what you did to me I know you should have pitched your rain razors on the first wa he didn’t even give go again it’s plus one it’s plus one oh my oh elas is so smart this is like the saddest and strongest CNC at the same time he’s like I I’m I’m just going to get rid of w and get my resource that I’m not going to use right now you can get the can wing and we’re taking seven right now so three cards seven but it basically take both of his Arsenal cards yep that’s rough I mean at least you get to preserve your card for for in the late game but if you’re taking sevens like this maybe there is no late game I mean I I was looking I was like is CNC into claw it’s like kind of whatever and then it’s like oh he has double rain races and a trap it’s like okay I guess CNC is pretty broken in this match up we do see the caran husk on uh on Elias’s side so it does seem like he’s going for uh blocking one big arrow with it probably with the equipment so it’s not this one yep probably not definitely not this one is a drill shot with a lace of inertia under it I think so the one that uh makes you uh play out your all your cards or you lose them drill shot is really good in the Y game though especially if he oh he’s going to give seven on this he’s giving the scowling flesh bag on this that’s not something I expected nope he’s not okay that’s why he’s not doing it he might give the a the Apex Bone Breaker if that’s what he wants to do but if he does that the minus one counter on drill shot will actually break it yeah if you somehow go over and we saw two rain raisers in his hand uhoh okay so now it’s better that he didn’t do it on the Apex Bone Breaker cuz like you said it would have it would have instantly broke after this combat chain mhm it’s slightly better this way because it was going to die anyways he’s like okay I take this car and he’s like okay that’s my rain Racers he does end up with an inertia now that might or might not matter he’s putting the minus one on the Apex I think it’s pretty good you prevent one might token this way yeah cuz you can only block with it once after this yeah and it’s always better value to put uh a counter on the one on the two defense one yeah cuz you lose two defense instead of the second block for one yeah exactly it it doesn’t make a lot of sense when you when you’re talking about it because one is one but one isn’t one one is two yeah if if he would have put it on the if he put it would have put it on the scab skin it would have still blocked two on this combat chain and it would have gone to minus two after but that just means he can’t block one later and because he did it on apex Bone Breaker he can’t block two with that anymore he just gets to block one once oh what is this this is bring beat down Clash of agility which is really weird because wait didn’t he throw a clash in front of the the arrow right did he not throw a clash in front of the arrow I do think so um did they tie I have no idea what happened yeah um but it’s okay um so we got the Clash of agility so I think he’s just playing the barage and beat out of his Arsenal because there’s an inertia just to get some value out of it but it does intimidate hero I think it’s a brood Warrior card he did intimidate yeah yeah yeah he’s going to get a snooze Dart a sleep Dart and he does get the value out of the barraging beat down right now yeah gets a plus cuz if you block with two cards you lose the bonus on the barraging beat down o is this a new card wait where did it get go again from was there a clash of agility maybe they did they already resolved The Clash agility I think they might have gotten the agility I don’t think he ever put it on the table maybe he did maybe we just missed it possibly possibly but it makes sense that it has go again because but that’s a lot of damage that is coming in right now so I this is what I this is what I thought just like L has a lot of raw damage output like these cards wait is it is it a break or is it actually good good hand so it’s blood R Bellow Art of War uh can’t tell what the other cards are so one funny thing about this line is like he played a rain razors right and this endless arrow is coming for nine mhm um so he can just snap dragon it and then reload the same Arrow rain Razer again he tricked him he’s like I’m showing you one rain racer wait that means he’s not that means he’s not reloading the endera oh he can Bullseye right oh okay yeah he can Bullseye and get Plus five on it yeah there we go okay I wanted to say you can use rain raisers to reload the endless Arrow but that also works it pushes a little bit more damage maybe he feels threatened maybe he’s like I’m a bit too far behind now but it I would say it’s normally kind of early to pop the bullar bracer here but you do get two more value out of your rain razor so and alsoas didn’t show any sign of blocking there so you probably get this endless Arrow back again mhm Your Arsenal which is good I wonder if there was a way to do this in a cleaner way you could have used death dealer instead of playing the card from Arsenal like used trench and death dealer there’s some there’s a lot of interesting lines in rip side so it’s like where pretty hard one to optimize okay so here we go that’s a blue pitched he has a banish start yet that was uh it’s a the slithering Shadow P that’s the one you get to play if you banish it huh yeah this is such a power turn and we also see a blood rush ballows in hand yeah yeah I saw that before Oh no dud if he draws double blue here he is cooking or at least one blue I wonder if the Art of War is choosing plus one or go again but I feel like it has to be go again you choose your fade look at that one not swing big swing big is a big one well he needs resources I think if he has oh no another blood rush he’s doing it again I don’t know if he got it I don’t think that’s Blues no but he does have another Blood yeah yeah but I I was just thinking I think the other one is not a blue either no that’s the that’s a new card from um from MSC mhm H what’s it called again well you think I’m going to Dre screamer plus is dread oh I know exactly what you mean actually it’s the one that lets you banish one two three and gets bonus effects based on how many sixes you banish right yeah exactly the one that we still don’t know what it’s called surely expansion slots down here somewhere it’s the shadow realm horor so if you banish one six you get plus one if you banish two sixes you get go again need again and if you banish three you can play one of cards you oh he’s Beast Within yeah but the Beast Within now it’s kind of whatever it’s pretty hard to trigger right now so it seems like the Beast Within will just get used for the pitch yeah um and hopefully I think there’s a graveling growl in the sand as well so it’s just a casual one eight plus 10 10 oh it’s double blood rush yeah that’s pretty that’s pretty good that’s pretty okay so just just a casual 20 damage turn it’s it’s nothing big bit surprised hano’s not blocking it probably saving it for the next attack he knows he that’s coming for sure yeah but it does mean that Hano does not have any traps uh for this situation right so if he had like a collapsing trap or if he had a bua trap he would have definitely used it on one of these attacks mhm but it doesn’t seem like any of those are currently hitting the field saw codex in his hand I think there’s Bolton shot and there’s a RAV Ravel as well I think there look there’s the thing the thing he’s doing the thing he’s doing the shadow real he has a lot of non attack actions and instance in his he just needs to hit I mean ideally he just hits one he doesn’t have anything left right I’m kind of surprised he’s going for this line over the over the gra on Arenal yeah yeah I was thinking about that too cuz it oh that’s not a hit cuz it’s also a red right and he did banish a blue a uh six higher wait so he gets to play one of those no no no I think he only B two so he gets go again okay so it’s just 11 go again yeah I think so huh I mean 11 means he’s blocking with two cards one is codex I think he’s trying no no in his hand Dr left his hand yeah so RAV Rebel C and there’s an endless arrow in Arsenal still so that probably means he’s going to bottom the endless arrow with the trench yeah cuz he can’t flip it right and codex into something there a red he got some lace of inertia lace with inertia and Arsenal after codex with the palder that’s pretty good but he is pretty healthy and he still has carrying husk yeah I would would not like to be in the position of uh of Hano with this sport St I also don’t think there were super threatening arrows in graveyard so far I don’t think there were one costs at all no I don’t think he has them oh there’s snooze Dart yeah the snooze Dart is pretty good against uh laa it’s um it’s the one that makes you lose hero abilities right yeah it’s the one that makes you take like four damage that’s pretty good at the end of turn on hit four is pretty good but there’s CNC CNC is CNC won’t threaten the pretty annoying it w threaten La of inertia and it will only hit for five yeah usually at this point of the game you start thinking about blocking with New Horizon unfortunately there’s going to be a lce with inera in there that you would probably like to use yeah so you lose it if you block with New Horizons and you lose it if you don’t block with New Horizons yeah I you like block with something else it’s still kind of okay he discarded his art ofir do you think he’s going to block this uh the Sleep Dart I think it’s going to be carry enough time soon so I think it does make sense oh iy oh and if he if he takes blood depth he might be able to transform into plasmo fat he’s thinking about it how does sleep nerd interact with plasmo fet sure surely that works still yeah I’m pretty sure that works though since it’s a card from uh since sleep Dart only makes you lose your current Hero’s abilities and blaso fat is like triggering in the inventory yeah it’s a funny interaction at least but it probably turns off the blast Mo abilities yeah you get be at the end of your turn anyway I assume it’s another hero so H looks like he’s blocking yeah I assume it’s another hero and won’t carry over until the next uh you mean the Sleep Dart effect the Sleep Dart yeah I guess all Hero card effects until the but it’s also until the end of their next turn I don’t know well it says when it hits a hero and they they refers to that hero I think but I don’t know I never have to deal with this man who sleeps darts on blasto fed we’ll we’ll make it an issue once it becomes an issue just pray doesn’t become an issue right elas did go down to 14 so uh he’s actually playing out the CNC yeah he’s playing out the CNC he’s threatening the lace with inertia right now okay he’s going to get two cards and it does seem like he’s going to try to transform into blaso fat with the blood dep with the blood dep that’s pretty funny and with kry and husk so up so we do get the the how much life plasmo fat do we get to see 20 21 there 21 life plasmo fed that’s pretty good he only has uh one two Targets to play out of the banish but that’s still like you it’s basically like you drew two cards right mhm it’s pretty strong there is the blaso fet so this let you play one of them per turn mhm so also there’s like this fun little interaction with uh oh what is it called again the D react in Monarch oh that you can also play it from Bish because because it has blood Deb so you can play the D react during your opponent’s turn and then during your own turn you can still uh play your own vanish blood that action cards it’s like guardian of the Shadow realm I think it’s something Guardian yeah guardian of the Shadow realm but that’s a pretty funny interaction because normally you wouldn’t really play cards from your banish in their turn it’s a big arrow for 10 over here that gets blocked with a carry and husk you have two cards in carry and husk right yeah but like you don’t need to keep that many cards anymore uh you get free cards because one uh there’s this free card in your banish that you can just play out so in this case the endless M mhm uh then two you don’t actually take blood dep damage anymore right now you only banish cards face down instead of taking damage so you’re decking yourself but and there’s only one blood dep card left after playing this so right now he has a no downside hero basically mhm and even if he did have to Mill for blood depth he has a pretty healthy deck oh oh wait it’s from the wait wait’s wait sniping oh my God that’s an endless M for six I I love the the slight the slight eyebrow raise on Hano it’s like oh oh I did that Hano is so strong and then elia’s like also no reaction he’s like yeah that that happens that’s okay just just the average no the boulder trap got turned off because he didn’t hit that’s so funny that’s so funny that’s so unfortunate but now we get to see one of Rip’s cool place that he can do it’s um the reload yeah it’s just the ravenous Rebel that reloads I didn’t I didn’t know there was the text on him on the ravenous Ravel but rip type makes you reload mhm oh it’s a three you reveal a blue you Ral the yellow there’s a boulder trap on top um so unfortunately we didn’t get the a good timing for Hana to oh but it’s also because there’s a CNC right CNC plays around the Trap pinging you down to 13 ah it’s so weird yep there should be a lot more situations where these traps go off than actually is happening right now he’s looking for sliding something yeah the sling Shadow p is still in banish I believe um oh yeah this one we’re just making sure if you can play it from banish uh in this situation but I believe you can just play it normally just a six for one just as a six for one which is pretty good but Deadwood rumbler doesn’t have go again right okay he’s banishing a non-attack action so he oh right he’s not turning off blood UPS anymore that’s not a thing we we’re past those time now we’re we’re he only snoo for one turn his naps aren’t that long oh but it’s for seven and he has a he knows there’s a boulder trap in hand so he just triggered it there it is Boulder trap Pew okay down to minus two he’s just looking at the Trap like what is this yeah and the tarpet trap won’t trigger anything yeah it’s only when it has go again it does technically trigger the riptide ability if he would like to but it seems like he does not for the reload you mean right oh there’s still two in Bish okay oh yeah there’s the curry and H that will always Mill you for one yeah very slowly you’re dying but it will still be a while wait is it supposed to be there yeah it blocked with it it blocked after being blaso fed right yes does it not go there anymore I believe it shouldn’t go there that’s kind of uh cuz I believe every card that goes into banish goes into banish face down instead uh whenever a card is put into your banish Zone turn his face down yeah but yeah what if it what if it went there while he was snoozed hey that’s kind of funny does it work like that it should work like that right I don’t know maybe that’s what happened when you’re snoozing you actually don’t you can actually increase your cards in in banish so you can play more cards you can draw cards during sleep Dart so you should tank sleep Dart well that’s so smart you also take damage though but nobody cares about that he’s still seven life he’s fine that’s true it does seem like he’s pretty fine and there’s also also once again the horror coming in Shadow Real Horror if he banishes good cards with this this can get pretty dangerous for you forgot Hano is like the best sniper in Germany that’s true that’s true he he I’ve never seen someone snipe triple not triple six triple non six this could be pretty dangerous if he doesn’t banish uh you need to banish two to get go again yes so even with two this is already a pretty deadly turn right because there’s a shadow shadow peed in uh in banish sling thing the sling Shadow P oh no there’s two okay it’s only two but this already seven go again mhm and it can already get followed up by the with the shadowed and he still has a card in hand and there’s still a card in hand and one in Arsenal as well I don’t think those are getting value doesn’t really do much but I’m pretty sure the shadow ped will be getting value mhm could maybe play the Arsenal four oh there’s even a barraging beat down wow guaranteed to get the buff on it because there’s only two cards left in hand and one of them is going oh no that’s a blue is it a blue I think it’s a blue baring beat down for plus two yeah so that’s eight and it’s impossible to block More Than This is this a three block goes to one no game GH to zero oh no if only this is the first time I’ve seen emotion on ELO’s face he’s finally smiling elas is so happy there were so many ways this this game could have still gone wrong yeah and he still managed to pull through there he wasn’t he was so far ahead in the beginning mhm the 20 into the 10 into 10 turn was pretty big or the 10 into 11 turn yeah pretty good yeah the he he he did the special with the blood rush draw into blood rush uh action you should maybe reconsider that one actually that one pretty good one it was a really good one he just needs to not do the blood rush double Art of War beat down thing and then he’s good yeah he figured might as well just uh you know stack them a little bit lower and everything is completely fine maybe fix this play before top eight in that regard and he did it worked out perfectly well um we’re going back to us put this here I can’t I so hide that we’re looking up Cs on February no we would never look look up cards that’s uh that’s against the rules would never we saw ourselves in we would never do that but yeah that was a that was a pretty interesting game I thought I thought from the beginning Lev would win but or before the game I thought that mhm it kind of looked like that and then it didn’t look like that yeah the the Sleep Dart was a pretty interesting Tech against levaya but I think it was kind of funny that you could turn it around around as well and get like more cards and vanish through the Sleep Dart that sounds kind pretty funny if that’s how it works I feel like riti didn’t quite get his uh get his turns to line up too well because of like the first turn to CNC when he didn’t get this double D the CNC for S so toxic I mean it was three CNC for four was already enough in that case because of the non blocks in hand yeah but but yeah that’s just insulting it’s it’s just kind of sad and then the other CNC and then the other CNC you where there there were some very good cnc’s turns out that CNC is a good card into a deck that plays traps and two Arsenal and two Arsenal slots yeah yeah and can’t doesn’t have armor mhm and then a codex got another CNC yeah um that seemed like a rough game for Riptide and I think despite that it was not it was not a blowout at all no so just got a little unlucky but to be honest to win any major you need to get kind of Lucky anyways yeah sometimes the cnc’s line up sometimes they don’t yeah exactly sometimes you draw all red with CNC sometimes they have six block then they’re fine mhm and it does seem like we’re getting a Leva into the top four right now um was this bottom the bracket so Kevin will be playing against new afterwards what do you think this will end up as sounds weird it sounds super rough for laeva he’s going to steal all your things imagine getting bounced yeah yeah yeah then putting three blood depth cards in vanish you’re like oh that’s so that’s so sick and sometimes you have like targeted selection so you can put a blood de card that doesn’t actually do anything for you yeah or you can put like a blue blood de card in there and suddenly you have two Reds left in your hand and you’re like oh yeah I guess I take four this turn or three this turn from blood claw I pitch two for claw yeah I can’t turn off my blood depth I take a lot of damage I take more damage than I deal okay yeah that might be rough that might actually be super rough yeah we’ll see if that’s how how it actually plays out but that does sound pretty rough and obviously there’s cases where Buns of Agy lines up with uh our of war or with blood Rush bow and you just lose all of your blood rush Bellows or your art of wars unless you block with them there’s also the thing where you want to like get to exactly 13 right but they’re playing so many attack reactions they might just Spike you past 13 and you can’t transform that’s also a thing yeah you need to put up a lot of pressure into new so that they can play their big hands but sometimes you just can’t put pressure because of all the disruption they throw at you so it’ll be interesting to see how this deck will how this match up will line up but maybe he’ll just nuke him for a million it doesn’t matter yeah that’s also possible sometimes your brother b line up early and uh and just nuked them you can art ofar banish your sliding uh thing mhm but I think we’ll most likely be going to the top half of the bracket for the next round so um in

[Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] welcome back everyone we just finished the top eight of the German Nationals yeah you thought there was eight more minutes for the next round but in fact we’re actually com to fill this time ah over delivering yeah that’s very good Ian what are we going to fill this time with well we have the updated brackets first um let’s small look at it so yeah there I mean it’s not unlike I expected but I had H for Kevin sanker that he could maybe take out Tom tidex nope Tom said no Tom said I’m I’m Zen so we already saw ilas versus Hano on stream with Lev winning on the bottom part of the bracket m i just spectated a little bit of U bino versus maximilan mhm after after the game finished uh after the ilos versus Hano game finished I went in there and it was like 2926 and I was like okay this could take a little bit more and it did yeah then I then I went back just a few minutes ago and the life totals were 18 to nine hey at least one is winning now but apparently uh Maximillian conceded because he only had one card left in deck which is a cheap ah the fatigue yeah I think this I think the new match up is just like a super late game kind of thing MH uh where you just at some point you just keep looping Chi to banish a card from their hand with the mask and the one who’s in Advantage at that point and forces the other into only having one card per hand mhm basically wins the game that’s pretty funny do you think that makes cards like double trouble stronger not because they have power but because you banish more cards possibly like you can play rainbow Double Trouble it still needs a hit though I’m not sure yeah you might hit yeah they might overlock also but that’s also Milling overlocking is also Milling so maybe you probably need to play extra hes just to get more go against something like that and also to trigger the double trouble but might be good I don’t know mhm there’s a lot better Zen I mean new players also Zen players out here I guess yeah and on the top half of the bracket I haven’t heard too much information on what happened in uh in the Zen versus Enigma matchup or in the Zen versus the Via matchup did you end up speaking with anyone no no I just went back here to suffer with my ankle are you okay Jimmy it actually still hurts but at least I don’t need to move anymore yeah just sit down stay here I just got to play with this P watch a game yeah it’s a great it’s great yeah so as we said before we are going to be spectating the Zen mirror on stream otherwise we would have ilas on on feature for four games in a row and that wouldn’t be great it’s also maybe nice for him to not be on stream for a second it’s it can be a bit of a mental thing like oh I’m on stream there’s a lot of pressure but there’s also a lot of like manual things you need to fix like the the powers the go again that kind of stuff it can be a bit straining and maybe maybe you’re like that’s not that big of a deal just needs to move the numbers and and play with a lot of pressure but we thought it would be maybe fair to uh to let him off for give a small break and if he makes it back to the final that’s on him mhm yep that’s all his fault that’s his fault but that match up sounds pretty rough yeah I think francisk uh Logan made a good comment before he was like oh yeah but new ability also banishes all of Lev’s cards oh so you can’t feel the Grave by blocking normally the early turns you can block or discard he n can play those blue cards from banish yeah you can steal them too but the the graveyard doesn’t get full that fast and you kind of need graveyard is like an extra resource for you to play a lot of the Shadow brute cards yeah and if you don’t have that and your deck is getting banished all the time to be robbed yeah it might be rough but I don’t know yeah we’ll see after this round if uh if ilas manages to break through news disruption yeah for now we get to look at the the cheap the che search Tiger mirror wait I forgot what the tiger is called in Spanish again no I knew I looked it UPA oh I think you’re I think it’s something like that I think it’s like Tiga something like that yeah el el elra is a way better name LSS please can you make elra token I feel like we mentioned the acupuncture mirror before mhm where both players are playing the Zen needles mhm but also I think that one of them was actually on tesar I think uh yonos was on tesar I do remember seeing a Zen play tesar top taable it was Max Klein playing T ah but it was way earlier it was yesterday so yeah so I wonder if both of them are bringing the the needles at the moment or if some have tar it’s tricky I don’t even I’m not even convinced what’s better in the mirror mhm I think it also kind of depends how it lines up if they needle you and their hand is not super great then it’s kind of okay to block the needle break the needle and get some Advantage a bit later when they they float resources and they don’t have a weapon anymore yeah sometimes you’re just clumped on combo pieces and you’re like oh well okay after after all the talk of protecting Elia from the mental strain and the moving the dice and the moving to go again we’re going to watch that game anyway cuz apparently we want to see his deck getting banished okay it’s your fault okay ilas wants to be famous it’s literally he he gave con so it’s all fine yeah yeah okay so idios we it’s your fault we expect you to win now as well I mean would be cool mhm I I don’t know if it’s definitely through that new wins but there’s a lot of things that sounded very awkward yeah there’s a lot of challenges to overcome and I mean heos can manage surely I mean already got second in Swiss made it to top four yeah they’re already at top four that’s what $600 of travel composition travel comp he probably has sixs up his sleeve and a golf foil as well right the big difference between the top four and the top eight is that you actually get a gold foil at top four I forgot about that because last year was top eight gold for and I think the year before that also and then the year before that it was top two yeah so this is pretty big all of them have already made it pretty much to where you want to be mhm except for where you really want to be is having the crown having the trophy all the cloud in the world yeah we do love cloud in the world yeah Germany has to be one of the biggest uh countries that you’re expecting or that you’re supposed to be watching right now right you if you if you think of big Nationals you think of like um USA of course Canada Canada a little bit of Australia New Zealand maybe yeah and then there’s Germany for Europe and there’s UK for Europe and uh the Netherlands of course what do you mean all the players suck there like us I I guess the rest doesn’t suck it’s just we that suck yeah but yeah you’re right and for Europe specifically I think I think in a lot of tcgs Germany is like a big TCG country mhm usually they have the biggest player base and you you can see it in that cards are germanized very often oh right and we also have U Pablo Pintor Spain he didn’t make top eight this time but we yeah I saw that yeah it’s uh that must mean Spain is really strong yeah they knock Pao out of top eight we can’t even do that with the rest of Europe I I feel like every calling in Europe has been top AED by Pao the rest of Europe can’t do that yeah only Spain can do that apparently Spain’s so strong maybe Spain is the best country who knows did we have France yet France is typically also a pretty big country I would say in Europe like it’s probably UK into Germany or your Germany to UK and then France and maybe there’s Italy also somewhere in the top five oh yeah I looked up a couple of uh National winners that were already ready from this weekend so we had Dash in New Zealand the original Dash the original Dash yeah inventor extraordinaire yeah we have Victor in Malaysia Victor he won against an enigma in finals is that match up like turbo favorite for enigma yeah I don’t know okay I I I feel like most uh Enigma lists are currently changing into attack action lists into like bull Enigma yeah so if you just hold a go again card in in Your Arsenal for the the entirety of uh until Miry hits you have an out to Miry and for the rest of the game you’re just playing against some mid-range deck that Victor is always favored into right that makes sense actually I guess so maybe it ended up like that I don’t know in Finland we have uh yua winning with new the new with new I would expected him to play droi uh not droi Enigma blue droi enigma blai blue my but new also makes sense I guess mhm it also makes sense that you has finally winning something I don’t who won Finland last year not UHA right I think he got second place oh so he got it done this year congratulations congratulations you huh um Norway got won by Zen okay taian got won by Zen okay and got one by new well I didn’t know suprus had a Nationals that’s pretty cool actually I assume suprus is a pretty small one I think finland’s also like only 32 players mhm uh but yeah I mean Nationals and Nationals right it’s still pretty pretty cool to it’s still pretty cool to be the best F player in your country yeah one day I’ll be the best best player in the Netherlands I mean I got close ones one day and then I Met ball lightning yep twice twice in your own hand it was supposed to be a good card why did you ban it it’s garbage but but okay you needed help yeah I did I did I really did but yeah it seems like Zen are converting very well currently um but also news are doing better recently it seems it’s probably because the news end match up is kind of tricky I feel like it can really go both ways mhm especially if you’re experien with new playing into zen I feel like there’s a lot of Small Tricks into into zen that you can abuse as new uh that weren’t that clearly obvious at the beginning mhm and I think people are slowly catching up on it apparently the players are currently getting seated so uh we’ll slowly be heading in into the game mhm but yeah in the meantime um I think I think new lists are slowly getting upgraded I think Zen lists are also getting better still which is very scary it’s crazy right it’s already considered the best deck in format but it’s a pretty new format so it makes sense that they’re still like optimizations that can be made yeah I think when we saw us Nationals for example we saw a bunch of the the swamp lists the shifting wins uh with nine bonds nine descended Gus wave and that list performed but I think a lot of people ended up going into the direction of Evan hen’s list which is more like six Bond six ascendant it does still run shifting wins but you don’t rely on winning it winning with yeah I played with Evans list a little bit and it definitely felt like a lot of the times the shifting WIS was a blue or a three block mhm cuz it doesn’t really help you as a as a transcend starter because it’s kind of bad to play it that way yeah cuz you won’t have the G to pitch to it and you won’t get the tigers um but when it works it’s it’s still pretty good and like the downside is the the floor is a three block blue yeah so it’s perfectly fine yeah it’s a super high floor so but I think most people are like kind of micro optimizing that list currently mhm or the list uh in in the UK for example uh shout out to cashi for winning UK National yeah that one’s also like pretty close to Evans list it runs SAR instead and goes for like did have Bing Thorns as well I guess bittering TS weest link weakest link and CNC yeah so it’s like it’s kind of like the reverse like normally you have the weapon and then you you end your chain with fluster fist or maing Chi or whatever and this list is like okay I play all the other cards first and then I end with tesar or I end with CNC or weak link yeah but most of the cards already they have go again so it’s pretty similar it’s just you don’t play things like fluster fist and M you play like bittering torns instead yeah yeah and yeah I feel like it has slowly been evolving and making lives miserable for other players a little bit are you miserable you I’m kind of okay actually see you’re not miserable I so I mean we just played this prison versus Z match up just now and it’s like yeah I’m telling you it’s fine for prison I didn’t feel fine until I felt fine you probably felt fine when I sent blue descended gust wave at you I felt pretty fine at that no bonds after I didn’t feel too fine when you uh when you popped my Goliath gauntlets couraged Herold of audition for eight dominate did you like my reaction speed though you you were like ah do I do I Glide Gauntlet is ha okay I’m GNA Glide Gauntlet this a addition with the courage token for eight and I’m like in the layer step pop yeah I popped in the layer step it didn’t even hit the table yet it was already popped uh sad for you but you still want that game so yeah I still managed somehow with uh with some als’s help of some als’s your ALS on the on the the Traverse the universe was really good yeah cuz normally you like block with Traverse and then you go super nuclear Mega turn M but then he plays als I’m like oh okay yeah and then you need to clear ALS and then you’re back down to a five card hand with a chi yeah so so they not the worst so you Time Walk yourself kind of but I also get time walk and I’m in my me the biggest turn I’m going to get this game from and I still have wait did I have SAR on board there no I didn’t I don’t think you had Sarah yet yeah but afterwards I got I got to do sah ALS things I think for the second one you the second ALS you have sah on board yeah which is so strong together you don’t even need to full loop it’s just a lot of tempo you’re getting back mhm drawing four to six cards off to sah and I have the pressure that I need to kill it and I need to not die also yep it’s pretty good can I play Prism now nope oh wait I can play Zen then SS pretty fun I mean you did have a dream where you’re playing Zen and winning Nationals right so mhm I don’t have three qu fo als’s either so maybe your deck is bad but Zen is also not full foil wait you don’t have levels don’t have gold foil Traverse universe and levels or casaya wait we have gold foil Traverse and casaya gold oh gold oh sorry my bad I forgot it’s literally unplayable I forgot about that part yeah but they’re not extended art that’s true I’m kind of sad that they’re not honestly yeah I do understand it a little bit because uh Alis likes having these gold foil extended Arts as like super premium for when you win a calling so like the what is it balance the balance of Justice the crown of Providence and the tunic wait was the tunic oh yeah the the Go full tunic was extended art but it wasn’t foiled for the rest it’s only the Border that’s gold foil that’s also kind of sad yeah it’s okay one day they’re going to put all the puzzle pieces together and it’s going to be gold foil extended Dart mhm maybe next set it would be nice if the most beautiful art version of a card is just the the gold foil one right or they going to figure out something some something else cool because the Marvels are debatably cooler than gold foils in some cases we should have Marvel gold foils how do you do that cuz the gold foil is usually on the border how do you do it maybe the text I don’t know maybe the text can be gold Marvel Marvel heroes are really cool though yeah yeah yeah I like them a lot I think we’re slowly uh heading into the game right now players are finally ready we get to watch idios versus boino oh bino’s back the purple the Purple Heart man I wonder if uh Ilia prepped for this match up at all I assume you’d end up playing a couple of those matches probably expect all three mstd heroes in some shape or form to show up in your CC but the tricky part is there’s only six to nine CC rounds mhm if you make Top Cut it’s a nine but if you don’t make Top Cut it’s only six that you get to really show your prep in CC and so you really need to split your time between draft and CC yeah so it can limit what you can prep for but I would expect new to be one of the things that you at least somewhat practiced into and I mean both players have made it so far so apparently they put enough time into the draft that they could make it into top eight I mean what and from top eight onwards the CC prep is all that matters but if you’re playing MST Heroes your draft prep also is kind of CC oh that’s so smart not really because you play different cards but kind of I feel like it has influenced my decisions in draft as well do makes sense yeah for example those like those recent Enigma decks they’re running so many attack actions to get your opponent low enough mhm to a point that they need to block Mir guy uh yeah your RS basically at which point the RS become a lot stronger and a lot harder to and I think that also transverse or converts converts to uh to draft as well I mean that’s a really the super unfair thing the AAS do right like if you only get one attack off and they pop it’s kind of fair it’s almost it’s even a bit un underrate sometimes but if if you get to save it and you get to hit again then you immediately go above raate and you’re good for this matchup so what are the cards that we’re going to be looking out for right now I think I feel like bonds of Agony has has to be one of them the one that let you look at their hand and steal the blue does it always steal the blue no bonds of Agony steals a card and steals multiple copies from your yeah yeah yeah yeah it’s the the anti bonds hater what do you think about siren’s call into this matchup uh we saw it pretty effective yesterday right he kept doing the was it Pino kept doing the back toback siren calls I don’t think so we saw someone do it yesterday um but that sounds pretty annoying for levia but also doesn’t sound like the worst thing in the world I mean there’s a chance that you whiff and they have a yellow in hand and then their hand is still playable right yeah he might have shifted he might have cut some of his Blues I don’t know if he did right because your Blues might be a li ability but L really can’t play without Blues I think so unless you have like extra yellows in your sideboard to make up for it it might or might not work out it’s pretty funny that uh new can play out blood death cards from your banish to clear your blood death hey you’re going to play those I’m going to play them first yeah kind of curious there’s also like Art of War blood rush Batts on ilias’s side can’t argue with the shuffling either can’t argue that their decks are not shuffled their decks are definitely Shuffle I wonder how much the new hero power will impact this game’s outcome I feel like I don’t know wait do you mean the activation or the banish on block the activation that you can play out the blue blood de cards but how often can you chain them together you would need to misplay probably or hiss but you can’t his them uh you can SL them oh wait you can sther them you can’t H them but you can slitter them so you need to save the slitter if a Mis blade hits you got to play multiples that’s also pry strong mhm often times they line up like a blue with path ball traveled to then play use the new ability to banish or to to get the play from banish it can be super awkward in the late game like when you don’t have the armor anymore you don’t really want to block the Mis blade anymore but if you don’t you might end up in the situation you are talking about where they have go again on the next Blue they take your brute blue they hit you for like six or or something like that and they have go again they hit you for six again with two cards mhm and you lose the cards yourself that’s pretty good same equipment as in the last match he is playing the Carion hus here are we surprised about that I think we are not right I don’t know I feel like you can’t really Spike them with Savage sash yeah it’s very hard to keep five card or four card hands into yeah so you don’t get the maximum discount value on all your cards slightly less oh oh we get another PCG ad and once again this stream is sponsored by PCG sponsored by Matt Rogers by Matt Rogers personally wow I don’t think that’s true but maybe I mean the organizers here are also from White Rabbit we they they do provide PCG Services as well for Europe so if you’re are if you are in Europe you can also get your cards graded by PCG just send them to Germany and if you live in Germany you can actually drop them off in the White Rabbit store so in Essen or an aen I think both are fine I think yeah mhm I’ve done that before with your cars actually my cards don’t you remember oh I got an iris of reality 10 I’m so happy with that I’m not playing it I suddenly became like a millionaire for like a day or so cuz I took all his gold foils to Germany I was so rich who did he just roll a six on scabin letters on turn zero wait what wait what’s he cooking what’s going on here we’re already hitting is it double claw something or is it something hey wait that card’s cool what’s that it’s a second standard off is that promo yeah it’s a Armory promo wait that’s so cool that’s also an Armory promo I don’t remember which tenet it is he’s oh he’s probably leaking here right yeah yep leaking four on turn one and filling the grave for a little bit but he did look go off Arsenal for that I think that’s worth it for getting to fill the grave because you can fill the grave on block mhm like we mentioned before yeah yeah so this is you have to play out cards to actually get cards into your graveyard or you need to be blocking the daggers basically yeah but you don’t really want to be there either cuz if you block the dagger you’re going to get nuked by bonds plus reaction or something yeah I mean it’s it’s going to be weird anyway like you do need the cards in your graveyard at some point so oh yeah look it’s the best way to discard cards is it blood rush Bellow yeah exactly it’s also Art of War so it seems like we have a power turn lined up however I don’t see resources so far yet you think dread screamer is red or not blue I think it is red we how’s he keep drawing these together they’re glue together it’s also very scary to do that Rowdy locals you play Rowdy wait but that’s the way to discard cards this oh he’s helping but you have to discard too right I think if you discard they discard but you can discard something like slitter or like the the back end of a his or Venom’s bite so you can discard like a token kind of thing and they actually have to discard a card but if they discard Beast Wen then you’re sad yeah but it looks like he drew the Beast W in one turn too early it seems like he uh it seems like boino has leave no Witnesses and codex of realy in hand so he just going for a or yeah yeah I think you’re right I think he Arsenal the go wait yeah I think he the Codex he going to get back to yeah exactly and now elas is forced to discard two cards in total that’s a funny interaction actually and get a card from Your Arsenal banished so probably he will try to get back Beast Within Arsenal to get that banished but it doesn’t even it only gives you stuff it goes to graveyard yeah but it’s like do you want to have one of your blood dead cards banished no I’m good that are also red so they provide a silver no I’m good good yeah thank you but it was kind of a cool interaction there cuz he didn’t have to leave no Witnesses engrave until he discarded to Ry local I mean technically it’s possible for uh for ilas to go for a card that he can actually play out from his banish and block with two cards from uh he can’t block with two cards so he has to give equipment I mean two equipments oh yeah two equipment sure cuz I don’t see him discarding both blood rush and Art of War he has the pitch I mean sorry yeah blood ocean Art of War he’s probably just playing the the six power card doesn’t feel like a power turn to me though it doesn’t feel very strong it’s also is it six or is a minus one because of the fry also or did you already account for that do you see that Ponder token it’s kind of sick you think it’s from one of the artists here it might be it might be artists here are pretty sick tokens honestly they were drawing on stream earlier also yeah I’m I already just commissioned uh a spectral Shield token for the new spectral Shield really yeah because I already have the old one right like Duke gifted it to me at once at some point but I also wanted the the new blue spectral Shield that Enigma uses for uh I’m probably going to use draft a lot yeah the rectangle the you ask who did you ask ma there’s two of them but you you probably ask cuz you made the spectal shield earlier I think yeah yeah it also has this nice foiling on it and it looks really nice he’s so smart I was considering buying more of them but it’s like he’s so rich so much money he you have to win Nationals before you get to do that wait he just gave it up he is getting the sling Shadow ped banished so he’s already at two blood dep right now now and he has no way to stop blood dep in his hand right now looks like he’s just going to claw literally trying to claw his way back into this game yeah you do literally need to claw claw back into this game probably claw with the AR War yeah I assume the Art of War is slightly lower yeah slightly less of a spike than the r Bellow so it all makes sense here but he still needs to pre he doesn’t get disrupted I think that Commander conquer in the hand for boino there’s fate for [Music] seen right it’s also for two because of fry that’s kind of sad actually yeah Sil commits a block cuz he can’t convert the whole hand I think he has to he probably is trying to clear Arsenal and daggering and commanding conquering or he’s going to pitch fate with the blue to do dagger and Commander conquer but I feel like Boo is in such a good position right now because like any form of disruption also deals an additional two damage every turn due to blood depth yeah it’s so rough to be in this position wait you’re a sussy guy why is this CNC just coming in sussy guy boo what does this mean you’re a sussy guy boo he didn’t block with his equipment yet there’s no daggers coming in in advance or something which he definitely could have yeah he could have just sent in like a skill peeler to to pre prevent all the blocks there cuz if you pit yellow then you’re like okay maybe he kind of like kind of bricks he doesn’t have the blue but he has the blue right there but bino also needs to be scared of stuff like scowling flashback here because it takes away the card in hand you won’t be able to respond but he what what if what if that’s his great mind game because he has fate for seen in hand o I think he wants to play his Arsenal card if anything but he might also give go again with boots but the Arsenal card what is that what could that be I think he blind pondered it so we don’t know would it be siren Call that’s like the most dirty response you can do here or it’s like stilettos he’s giving both pieces of equip you know did the slight knot there did you see that he’s like yeah yeah do that do that do that no not my fate for seeing what is it yeah it is Sir skull will there be blues oh there’s aidia it doesn’t look blue maybe it’s strict uhhuh I mean there’s a yellow strip on it you know there’s an eye of aidia and a smash back it hor so the resources are still not too bad after this block yeah but boino does get another card in his hand from putting a blue in front just stripping the card is fine like he threw his Caron husk and the flashback here thinking that okay if I do this I’m down a lot of armor but I’ll have a five card blood rush hand and it might help me push through this deficit but that’s not the case he still lost the blue his hand didn’t wasn’t super great anyway but it’s still a card it’s still resources might prevent him from doing at least one claw and that’s like five damage so but ilas does manage to get a blood rush turn off this turn yeah that’s true so we might be able to see one of one of the I can you could say few blood rush or like Po po off turns for elos MH like this few windows that he can make to do pop off turns so maybe this is going to be a big turn I’m not quite sure if this is going to to make it there mhm because yeah you got your hands your card stripped from your hand with the siren Call I feel like siren Call is one of the cards that has somehow been overperforming just because you can play it on non assassin attacks mhm whereas the H his and the venomous bites and stuff you need to Target a Mystic you really need the Mystic for or assassin or assassin yeah you can use a slitter on anything but you need to use the first half on a on an actual Mystic or assassin card there’s the Fate that he Arsenal with after got intimidated he has no response to that he’s too cool there’s five we see another five yeah we we can probably expect another another five off of five and then something else five five maybe 10 but what if idias is considering rolling the dice on this one oh no he breaking the combat chain oh no oh no he rolled it off the screen we do see no reaction so it’s just okay it’s fine one action point nothing happened yeah that claw already attacks elas yeah yeah that’s not I mean it doesn’t really matter you only attack twice but he still hasn’t banished the card to to activate Lev’s ability wow two reactions in the turn where he’s trying to swing back yeah that’s rough like you gave up half your armor for this mhm including like a very important effect in the fleshbag and so far we’ve dealt two damage that’s Oh you mean in this turn yeah yeah in this turn I mean this will probably do something but you do got a you you got like a window to attack you get Tempo yeah so you get to do something again so if boo ends up blocking this eight you’re kind of fine because you get another turn to attack yeah if Pino ends up uh kind of taking this age you’re like hm it’s probably not good for you that is scary well V should probably start blocking with his equipment at some point we do see L getting turned off so at least elos is not taking blood dep damage this turn yeah cuz that matters right now only blocking double trouble for now block with one card I like how that’s like the universal gesture of wait wait please man I’m not done blocking don’t don’t say anything I might add another car ah no okay I’m fine I just block but he’s not blocking with his equipment so what does this hand mean so he’s probably not using the equipment oh okay tunic’s on three notably do you think it’s just bluffing here it can be like what can this be it can be like his but with no slitter yeah so it’s plus three it’s just a plus three and it activates the prognosis uh you only need one effect only need one reaction for that right yeah so it could also just be one of your equipments but you haven’t blocked with the equipment yet so it’s unlikely to be the equipment yeah it feels like you would never pop your equipment here cuz you you had like the freest opportunity ever oh right of course we forgot about this thing oh we forgot about this thing yeah that’s a strong card just a Nick with the new blue M are they Mystic the blue new blue assassin attack action is so strong this one and bonds just a nick making the persuasive prognosis hit and based on the banish of this card he will get to pick get get to get a pick at Elias’s hand mhm don’t you think it’s sick we went from like blue on hit stealth it’s a blue oh wait and it’s just a blue record two BL there I think the other card is a red clash of agility and a another blue or another red getting banished for persuasive prognosis getting to heal I think three three life because he B three action points or action cards only two right he banished oh he B yeah then re aump from hand and then the Boneyard Marauder off the top from the just the Nick ability what I was going to say is like before misfill steell blue attacks were like one you can’t play D reacts or one on hit fry blood rods mhm that kind of thing and now it’s like one on hit I nuke your hand I heal 500 yeah and I Mill you I mean they do need to play a reaction for it wow you really saw him struggle with doing that right there yeah I would really be sad if I played the reaction gives me plus five yeah wow he’s just playing out dread screamer yeah I think he really wants to turn off the blood depth right now yeah but it does make his graveyard very thin so yeah that’s what I was going to say I don’t think he really cares about uh about wait what I was it trying to say Jimmy how would I know is your brain not mine I don’t think he really cares about hitting the dread screen Spanish that makes sense but more about turning off levia hair cuz I wonder how much blood depth he has right now it has to be like over four I think luckily he only banished recer ROMs just now after the Spanish and like recum is is funly enough kind of unplayable when you’re playing new mhm because you still needs to still need to pay the additional cost you don’t need to pay the resource cost but you still need to pay the additional cost obino finally blocked with his equip oh but that’s also so scary when you see your opponent block with this you’re like oh no I’m going to get bonds of Agony or some [ __ ] the tunic is also still on three and there’s a full grip this time probably has to expect ofon like okay okay what can he take with B of Agony there’s agile windup there’s a clash there’s a graveling house that would is called yeah but so the worst part about bounce of Agony is a they get to pick your hand so it’s just like surgical extraction right mhm they get to take your best card they get to take your best card and if as Leva if your hand ever becomes non-functional you take a billion yeah yeah that’s true but there’s also B where they take the best card and the rest of your best cards and the rest of the best cards in your deck or graveyard yeah yeah yeah so if you that’s you have three cards in your banish right in your graveyard right now that you can use for like fueling your attack fueling your attack kind of as a cost and if he banishes like one of those dread screamers right now mhm suddenly the rest of your hand can be nonfunctional yeah if you have no grave a lot of the Shadow brute cards they require you to banish cards from your graveyard usually three if you don’t have what he’s he’s going for it yeah for sure this is four and then also again this the third reaction so far we see a lot of signaling between the W RIT team This Is How They communicate this is how professionals communicate they did like the The Rock symbol you know with the pinky and the thumb I don’t even know what that means I don’t I I don’t we’ll figure it out later we just we just play card games I don’t know anything yeah but it seems like the seven go again bouns of Agony is hitting right now and it’s getting a pick at elas his hand and the scary part also is that he played Slither so he probably has something else he’s doing there’s more disruption coming in and there’s a you can also look at all the non blocks in hand so we see a nonblock deadwood rumbler in hand we see a two block a agile wind up in hand at least the Clash blocks are three and I think that’s a blue Clash of agility so there’s enough Blues in this hand for it to be functional if you take the graveling GR you get to banish two more mhm which can kind of Ruin ios’s day because plus three D blood depth is a big number and this the only red in hand as well so it might be might be not the blue here it might be Deadwood rumbler I think but I seems like Boo is considering the Clash of agility maybe there’s another Clash of agility still in graveyard that you can banish or he’s considering like what if we clash and his turn suddenly becomes functional no I figured it out what is the he’s got to play CN CF or just yeah that’s very possible if you take a three block CNC has to be covered up Clash yeah cuz the Clash also gives value other than the the three block does it does it does it really give value I stripped all the car you might pass turn you might block out past turn keep agility honestly I think it’s possible I feel like you there’s also no good way between these cards to turn off Lev’s blood depth mhm oh it seems he’s going for Deadwood rumbler like let me look at your deck this is also funny cuz you can look at what they boarded wait what what if new is going to play Deadwood rumbler draw one discard one sometimes you hit a CNC and gets a banish a card in your opponent’s graveyard that’s pretty funny though only has two more in deck looks like all the blues but you can also take a look at the rest of the cards what’s left yeah just what am I going to take next time maybe bunch of graveling H graveling growls the new Majestic what would the followup to this play be so he there is still a venomous bite left right or a Fang strike left in hand uh did he not play it on here this is one goes to four I think it was his the shoes and the the Slither so there is still a Fang strike Fang strike coming up there’s two floating or if you include a tunic so it could be a CNC indeed CNC for with a Fang strike CC for S is so annoying yeah he has to give equipment and if he gives equipment you’re like okay I arsenals this but also this might be the turn where laeva transforms into uh into plasma fats that’s true we didn’t talk about that much yet and funnily enough um there it is I’m so smart funnily enough when you turn into uh in this match up you can also turn into Leva redeemed because you banish a lot of blood up cards right and it’s not that hard to get up to 13 um that’s true he’s probably already a decent way there around 10 I guess I would imagine around 10 especially after getting bonds of Agony for Deadwood rumbler uh so if you ever turn into laa redeemed all of your cards get face get flipped face down and or all of your banish cards get flip face down and suddenly news hero power does nothing why was blocking three wait that is pretty funny actually looks like they clashed got the agility he’s letting CNC hit and Boo’s playing Fang strike anyway so he’s going down to 15 life I think he doesn’t care because he just he was just planning to go into blaso Fett anyway well another clash in Arsenal and he’s just going to try and play a card or two can you play gring grow from your hand no he just discarding for another agility and Arsenal he’s just getting agility and turning into blaso fat it seems just counting out as oh that’s more than 10 there four nine is it eight or nine on this table I think eight n so he’s taking two damage down to 13 transforming into blaso fat and banishing I think seven cards four five six seven yep eight eight there’s r four in there too maybe it was 10 um wait is there two a Wars in there and now elas can actually play from banish so with by Arsenal that last card he essentially got himself a six card hand for the following turn mhm assuming new doesn’t disrupt but it’s new but new will disrupt and probably take one card away usually mhm or we see a transcend card in in new’s hand looks like on elia’s side it’s was it double command conqueror and then on bino’s side it’s persuasive Ive what does this mean is it just Nick I see Justin Nick oh my God it could Beth travel this could be that’s so sick this could spell Doom for elas that’s so sick how many that with Rumblers are in in banish right now I think two or three I I think it should be three right I think it’s three because he banished one and he took took two from the deck I think it’s three he took two from the deck okay I think he took two from the deck so sh B3 and this is also disruption oh having pathw well traveled here is so good he could also he also has justtin Nick he also has justtin Nick yeah he has justtin Nick and I think no I know for sure he’s just an Nick I’m not sure about the pathw Trel and there’s venomous bite is it pael Trel it doesn’t look like pael Trel it might just be the attack reaction uh mask oh it’s just pass over so he won’t get go again on this removing one of the resources in the graveyard he will he will get attack reaction here stripping a card from hand mhm but there’s this cool trick with uh persuasive prognosis when when they do this you can just banish one color of your entire hand away yeah and then they can’t pick that and then sometimes they don’t hit the correct color mhm uh I think unfortunately for him he had double Blue double red he banished yellow it seems oh maybe not so I guess the yellows are whiffs now off the top I think he banished two arars in his transformation so it’s a bunch of yellows I’m not too sure how this is going for uh we’ll find out if this is a yellow it is ah you can see the reaction he’s like uhoh I don’t think you have yell in hand sir and he really doesn’t and he’s like yeah you can look wow that is kind of crazy so I I think that’s a blue diabolic offering a blue dread screamer and a CNC on Elias’s side really heads up play from ilas to take out the only yellow like you described and eliminate that from being an option yeah it still had to hit from the deck randomly to make it work but oh there’s another yellow on top okay but but meanwhile bino is still at 30 life yeah like what could possibly happen on Elias’s side to make this game like a winning game for him I don’t know it’s rough it has to be some combination of blood rush bows or art of wars I think he’s out Art of War or he’s out at least to Art of War yeah and he pitched another one to bottom I don’t think he shuffled so far um blood rush bows I have not seen many he played one I think he only played but at this point is more likely to get them banished than to get them into your hand so that is kind of unfortunate for idias kind of want to find those early it’s probably what the it of edas for too so now we have a CNC with go again from the agility token from last turn yeah um I get to be the disruption now he did not get the discard yet so he can convert his Blues into into mandible claw swings oh no I feel like that’s that’s very often the case in liia yeah it’s it’s a little bit awkward but the manable claw claws are just too good to not run they’re just there for when you blood rush Bellow them and you can claw for a billion yeah it’s just like blood rush batt with two weapons is so strong so bino just takes it I think part of the reason is he has sink blow in his hand that doesn’t block oh rolling the dice not hitting more than one action point so far though still just one action point that’s unfortunate he would have been able to claw twice off of the dice or or play something from banish maybe and Claw diabolic offering was also possible to play in theory oh right he so gets to play a card from banish yeah he’s playing the shadow is it Shadow realm horror Shadow realm horror yeah yeah and he might get to play in no wait he doesn’t get to play another card wait how does this work wait he gets go again if he banishes two sixes CH can play as Arsenal maybe or claw so 134 134 is how many sixes one definitely not three two just one it’s a blue crash but those get banished face down so he wouldn’t be able to play anything from banish anyway off of The Shadow R horror but he would like would have liked to have go again there he did he did whiff on that just another thing that’s not going we you kind of need everything to go like really well for you at this point yeah and the die rolls aren’t lining up the cars aren’t quite lining up disruption yeah lined up a little bit with the banishing the yellow off of up just now yeah that was kind of sick but you know’s now starting the I’m going to count your deck uh wi con yeah I mean which is a wi con he’s Milling you’re Milling him so you’re at 24 life but also he’s at nine life killing also wins the game here killing is pretty good at winning the game in Flesh and Blood yeah probably gives up the sink here no or what do he have in hand so one there’s like some interesting lines here where you can either do like you block with the cards and Arsenal the sync for when there’s a bigger turn he has codex or you just sink and try to make your turn as good as possible and I think we’re going to see aggressive actual action on uh on no side maybe boo was was after the new Mir it’s like dude I don’t want to do this anymore I’m just going to hit you now elas had zero blood rushes in the in the Bish my that’s I mean the top wait it’s not the only the top nine no I meant the I thought Shadow ra hor was one but it’s not so will we will he actually find the blood rush battle in his hand right now also not he has an Art of War though oh we found it got it back so with the wait that’s a pitch stacked Art of War where did the blood rushes go maybe they’re already in banish maybe they’re face down uhoh it’s art of Desire oh the blue one what’s that one called soul mind soul yeah you really don’t care if that card hits but you do care about this trans no wait he’s not using the hero power he’s just disrupting okay he’s back on the you don’t play game plan but the the art of Desire mind also still has go again so because of path and I think there’s still a Cod yeah he’s codex in hand so could be leave no Witnesses most likely will be followed by leave no Witnesses yeah and that’s annoying because we see El’s holding AR for that’s not blocking he has to give him a card right now which is probably a three block and if he gives too many cards then what is your art ofar worth okay that’s looks like he’s getting ahead of that plan he’s like I’m probably not playing this card out sadly bye-bye Art of War hello leave no Witnesses I mean I think it was a good decision yeah on his part like art ofar with no hand doesn’t do anything cuz he’s either losing Arsenal or his had it’s not you can’t keep both of them I do feel like Art of War is one of his wing conditions though like one of the only ways to get it back into this game because of you need to find blood R Bellow before your own clock stops you from doing that so would you maybe like play a different line either block or let this Arsenal die and an Arsenal art for after cuz you’re not playing it this turn I don’t know what the I can’t really see what the hand is there’s a blue in there right so you can still just do blue into AR ofar and let the Arsenal die uh yeah go again you got two more cards you do like a three card arar under fry I guess at that point he didn’t know he was getting Fred but it’s rough but there’s still no blood rush Batts on top so maybe I’m just maybe we just missed the blood rush battle somewhere yeah it might be in Banished already yeah but it definitely does look rough for elas here I don’t know if I can imagine a way to win from this point on and also crucially the block on the bond wait what what it called Art of Desire Soul it was the last equipment block so from here on out every blue attack is taking a card if the blue block anything like I’m not even sure if art of Desire mind if you really needed to block it no that’s true but if you get hit by a prognosis again or a bonds you you have to block from hand now yeah and that means I’m banishing now 246 okay slowly elas is also running out of cards in his graveyard that’s too H yeah this for B Marauder you really don’t care if it hits you just need to banish his cost right nothing happens it does have go again though so he he’s finally able to play out one of those graveling growls that has been stuck in his Arsenal for forever I think I think he has one in hand too he also has one in hand yeah so maybe maybe we see a die roll here so we can play both oh play both yeah uh and I mean to win from this position I think you just have to H High Roll I think you’re right and you’re on such a short clock right here mhm yeah and we see him close to combat CH yeah close the combat chain for elos means I’m rolling I need space for the dice he’s telling his opponent maybe this time we’ll finally roll more than a one or more than one action point the good thing is he didn’t roll a one so far the bad thing is he did get one action point every time so far definitely not what he wanted to do here cuz I think you’re right I think he wanted to double grappling grow clear the and imagine if boo just holds the entire hand that’s a just giv him the Justin Nick not who I expected but also what is Elias’s deck looking like after this eight cards and banish oh there’s a blood rush under here under the yeah under the husk so we’ll see if there’s some blood rushes getting banished right now I I don’t think P needs to win on that well there’s oh my there were still two in De okay never mind okay that wind con is out the window yeah nope we’re not going to be blood rushing he doesn’t even have that many more turns of banishing like this yeah like there’s like one or two no there’s just I’m pretty sure there’s just one yeah you like wait let me check that let me show the stream how many cars are left in your uh like that’s crazy he was ahead in life the whole game but I don’t think he needs to win on damage anymore surgical the other great blue attack action but this one is not base one so maybe it makes sense that he blocks with the Justin so one of the most annoying things about Surgical and in new is that you can actually pump it with the with the new attack reaction so it’s actually just a surgical for seven that you need to be worried about mhm and seven is such a big number with no armor and I haven’t seen him play any buter is it preserve oh okay I I might need this uh at some point later yeah sure if you somehow banish 200 cards from your deck that I don’t see right now then I might need this there goes one card from your hand then goes another card from your hand would you like to play the game I would like to but you’re not letting me cuz you’re an [ __ ] I’m sure Ito is not an [ __ ] he made it hard on the stream can’t be an [ __ ] mhm he was very happy if you were playing new however probably bad oh that’s a seven that’s might be an eight could have been eight but okay oh that’s eight I I was going to say doesn’t even oh wait it’s nine does he have the resources for this no right tun he tunic he tunic he tunic is that just a game no he snack that’s a snack yeah snack oh no wait he actually played snack all this game and never found it never saw it on any Justin Nick that’s so unfortunate time he blocked a one attack with that got just an nicked he didn’t have it until now so he’s alive but how alive is he I’m so confused by the way didn’t we didn’t we see an nard of War getting pitch to the bottom at some point uh was was wasn’t that art of watera one did he I’m so confused I don’t think he shuffled I don’t know did something he ser maybe he pitched a blood rush instead no no no no he definitely pitched R4 okay maybe he just came back earlier than we thought yeah maybe he pitched two blood rushes as well I don’t even know it’s been a long weekend and slowly coming to an end and it seems like uh elas doesn’t have many cards to play with left he can still play from his banish that’s true that’s why he kept the blue what is he going to play the best thing it’s probably like a six or around a six but he’s on five wait so does he how does uh how does Leva or blasted work with with this uh amount of cards left does he just only get to redraw one card after this I feel like he only gets redraw one card yeah I think so too and that being the card that he pitched that’s rough so this is the last turn and all boo needs to do is not not trip like me this morning basically mhm he’s basically at the Finish Line yeah he just needs to not get a heart attack in this time so it should be that should be doable hopefully I don’t know what’s the percentage on that I don’t I haven’t calculated that too much I think it’s around 99.9999999% so there’s only a blue that he’s getting back left then he can then elas can still play a card from banish every turn just for the safety okay I’m done with this equipment now just in case we’re just going to be attacking this turn just in case you plus n me there it is the last cards he says sir can you block surgical extraction would you like to block surgical extraction he’s like I could but you don’t G’s boo nting winning with new versus ilas caramanis oh the meeps heading to the finals as well the meeps are doing it the meeps this this Pino yeah and surprisingly Zen won the Zen mirror wow I think the chance there was maybe higher that one of them would get a heart attack just CU it’s so actionpac it’s so fast yeah I kind of didn’t expect any any of losing but it seems like Tom TI will be facing off Boo Boo nting in the finals that’s so cute he got the we got the team cheer in the back going on there oh they’re so happy I mean there’s a lot of them what what if elas didn’t have wasn’t scared of the stream pressure just scared of the Meep pressure that’s why he said it doesn’t even matter if I play on stream but there’s also a bunch of value vampires cheering for each other it’s just like loud but they don’t have purple shs it’s very very very scary so here we see the final brackets as well um so we just saw that Tom tidex managed to beat Jonas stok in the in the in the top bracket you was a strong Contender I mean so is Tom actually so yeah so we saw two value famp barers die there I think I think both of them are I think you could be right we we saw a meeps going into uh into the into the finals now I don’t know if Tom tidex is on a team did you we have him did research on this I have him on the SI spreadsheet hold on yeah so uh last week or maybe a little bit more than a week ago uh published or made uh a survey for players that entered either Belgian Nationals because Jimmy was also commentating that and German Nationals so we could get a little bit of extra Intel for during the stream he didn’t fill in a team I can’t believe this maybe’s a team he’s too cool for team but it’s pretty funny that as his Nemesis he put Marcel Harts who was the national champion from last year yeah so if he be comes a national champion this year they’re definitely Rivals and the funny thing is that Jonas also filtered in and he had elas as rival filled in but apparently they they’ll never get to play play each other in finals now they’re best friends you know it’s like oh you go out I don’t want to play anymore I’m going to maybe they’re still just going to play a third place match just in case that would be sick actually yeah so now we see Zen versus new we’ve seen this before on stream as well uh um what was it Hulk versus was it also bino maybe also beo yeah I think it was also bino back then and that game kind of went wrong in a in a bit a little bit a little bit yeah it’s like Nuke constantly through disruption all the time mhm and Zen basically never got to play the game until he got one turn until he got to play the one yeah and he suddenly threatened lethal off off of 30 life or something that’s what Z does yeah that’s basically how the matchup goes and sometimes then gets there and sometimes he doesn’t and this how big your pop off turn is can determine the tempo for the rest of the game because if they’re on the defense then they can’t disrupt you as well right they really want to like disrupt you and then keep disrupting you like over and over and over again and if they’re on the back foot they don’t really get to do that as well mhm and another one important thing to know about the matchup is that there’s this pivot turn where Zen just shoves all the equipments in front mhm and you pray to God and you pray to God that they don’t go over anyway exactly or just like siren Call your your Chi away or something usually when this happens they’re like playing CNC or weakest link into you yeah they can have the arm equipment that get plus one so to be kind of safe you you shove seven and then if they have bite or hits you’re like okay I’m sad now and sometimes you do that when they’re at like 30 plus life mhm and after your popup turn you’re like wait I still need to deal 12 damage throughout this game how am I what what is my plan for this I don’t have shos anymore to give Extra Value I don’t have my um casaya to get a free resource on and it matters so much when like you you really need those to push like those small pieces of damage in before you like get pressured down by by no cuz if they’re not dead they’re still going to try to throw some disruption at you even if they’re on the defense you you might lose a card or two and then you need to make like two cards hand work two card hands work you’re a combo deck so it doesn’t always line up sometimes you get six but six also isn’t that great and if you’re playing two card hands new is very happy with that yeah new is happier than you are playing two card hands so mhm and then they slowly slowly claw the game back in some cases yeah and then uh then you get the ancestral Harmony nuked we’ll see if that happens in this match as well you know if you ancestral Harmony new Kim you deserve to win German Nationals um and by that I mean you play triple Harmony you play like 100 wins 100 wins 100 wins descendant descendant descendant or descendant bonds descender bonds descender bonds descended bonds descend bonds I mean around here he’s already dead but you know yeah that’s just for good measure you can throw in some other blue cards I do think it would be great content to see this on stream as well probably Boards out the levels of alignment just so this that doesn’t join that party train yeah and I think in other games we also saw like silver being used to get like a lot of levels of Enlightenment value it’s not it’s not really a trick but it’s kind of a cool mechanic like MH normally Silvers I pitch three I get one card back so I pitch my blue I might get back another blue what’s the point but you hand fixed you sometimes you hand fixed but for levels you get the you get one extra mode per silver you pop mhm so you get like plus two or draw a card are quite relevant so turning your silver into plus two is pretty good yeah turning your silver into a card and plus two that’s pretty great and then drawing into another levels well then you’re a good player yep then you’re actually a good player yeah um I’m not sure if the match is uh currently being set up well going to take 10 minutes fin okay so it will be taking 10 around 10 more minutes so I guess we’ll be throwing to a break right now um couple minutes we might start a little bit earlier so just stay tuned just in case there’s a few nice ads running in the background you love the bike ad right yeah I love the back bike ad he loves the protour Amsterdam bike ad watch the pro ad come visit Amsterdam I’m uh [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] Quon talk Quon talk Jimmy from gson K yeah I did it good job Jimmy it’s finally time for the finals yep we see we will have the final soon and we’ll finally see who is going to be taking home $2400 of travel compensation um that’s a big travel that’s basically Osaka done yeah done and dusted including accommodation I mean it’s you even got another trip afterwards no I mean if you use it to pay accommodation I think you can you probably done a gold foil I mean they already have the gold foil right yeah and I think second place gets 1,200 instead of 2400 which is also basically a flight ticket it’s just just a $1,200 money match over here and of course you win the trophy but you need the clout yeah you need the clout and the title of being a German National Champion you get you get to bre for an entire year guys it might be longer cuz this this cycle it was a bit shorter than a year because it was like October November and now it’s Nationals had value huh last Nationals has last value yeah but you didn’t win that anyway so it’s okay yeah good thing I lost you can win this one Bon so strong can I get second uh you can try I’ll take second oh I also get my uh my eltigre yeah we didn’t get to comate any elig still till now oh yeah we dodg all of them yeah what I’m going to look up later how you spell elra or the actual Spanish name of that card but yeah you we will have a Zen versus new match up in a little bit we saw uh boino winning uh against L on new just now yeah against elas zva and uh Zen just won uhit in the Zen mirror yeah that was a big surprise to you huh yeah I was I wasn’t sure who would win that one but I was like yeah Zen will win but it’s Tom tidex that won against yonas strook so we will be seeing Tom face off beo let’s see if uh Zen can play through all the disruption that new throws at him mhm it’s really a tight match up I was saying I was talking bit about it in a break but it’s like it really can go both ways yeah and the the early game kind of dictates a lot or not necessarily the early game but the the pivotal moment is when you show shove your equipment like you said and then you either get them down very low and you can chip them and finish the game or you struggle and they actually come back and they they kill you yeah it’s a very delicate balance between like putting enough pressure and knowing where your P pivot point is um like sometimes you don’t put enough pressure and they just get free drain to do bonds of Agony On You mhm sometimes you put too much pressure you use you use all of your equipments up too early mhm and you suddenly run out of gas yeah if they’re like at like 15 or so after your pop off turn you’re probably in trouble mhm cuz after that you don’t have the chest value anymore the transcend to make a resource sometimes really helps you get another weapon attack or something and the shiko is every two turns I would say at least one damage yeah and Bon of Agony once again it’s uh it’s a strong card in a matchup it sometimes it hits your bonds of uh ancestry and you’re like oh well I I guess I’m not doing any bonds combos for the rest of the game sometimes is it’s your descendant go with and you’re like oh yeah I’m guess I’m not starting this combo anymore at this game that’s really rough cuz the only way you have out of that is to block it but you don’t really want to block it you don’t want to block still you’re still going to get hit even if you block most likely and then you lose something else and then you’re down two cards sometimes you have an art war in your hand and it can’t even block and you’re like oh well I guess I block with two cards and play my Art of War from hand and fizzle your on hit it’s okay you can play Art of War block from Arsenal and then you could it’s very not good you can try it if you want but yeah the problem at that point is like you you lost one of your art of wars mhm so um yeah it’s just so crazy that one card can steal your whole deck’s worth of some a certain card like Art of War yeah for descendant it’s only like half or one third depending on how many colors you play but mhm that’s already a big amount it really is getting descended Bond six time or three times matters a lot yeah and then sometimes it’s even blue copies that enter your advantage and then they will play it sometimes they banish your ancestro Harmony and you’re like well then I guess once you play new you get to do a lot of combo things yeah but it seems like the players are ready right now so we we can go ahead right into this game Al I have aidia sleeves this time instead of a card yeah I don’t I haven’t seen Tom tidex play on stream myself yet I don’t know if he has been on stream uh at all this uh yeah it it seems like he has been he has but we weren’t here mhm this is our first look at his ltra gam playay and forino we have seen him on stream a couple of times I think one of them was during the draft he’s so excited yeah there’s a range of emotions you can feel in this spot right yeah you can feel nervous you can feel happy you can yeah and sometimes they some people they get like fueled by this kind of situation they perform better some people perform worse it looks like voo is just having a great time he’s enjoying it he’s like 200 meeps behind him and Tom’s a bit more calm yeah but he seems to be yeah this is my a day too yeah on my average first day I win 1,200 and a gold foil it’s okay or 2400 and a trophy and a gold foil and a title clout clout you have to put in your Twitter bio your German National Champion 2024 yeah and I mean it’s not easy it’s not easy I tried you tried I also tried you also Tri we both failed we both failed and only one of us can succeed this year and maybe it’s neither of us what a draw in finals that’s like so that’s like so anime that’s like the oh we can’t have a winner and loser so we’ll draw and you you have to figure out what happens now who’s the real winner then do we get half a trophy what if both players run out of resources do do we have have a trophy okay okay I want the I want the bottom half sure that doesn’t look that good I think it’s it’s okay I have the the stable part yours my tip over H that might be right but either way one of them is going to live the dream that we didn’t get to live yet mhm I mean we’ll probably never get to become German National Champion yeah that’s true me that might be tough you did live in Germany for a while you could CH you could do it again and change your country if you really want to I could there there’s cool people here you have white Rabbit game store here you lived on the wrong part of the country to go to the White Rabbit game store but it’s here yeah and speaking of White Rabbit game store uh oh we also have a sponsor wait I actually didn’t know that wait I didn’t actually know that oh it’s back once again thank you to PCG Europe for uh sponsoring this stream thank you for thank you Hiner and math Rogers if you’re in Europe and ever have a card to grade we have this amazing uh these amazing player slabs that you can grade them into yeah we also have the normal slabs of course yeah if you’re if you like to display it on your shelf or something it might be better to have the collector slab otherwise I would usually get the player slab for for German Nationals there was even a special German National slab that they made just here yeah I think it says like national festival and I imagine they’re also going to be at proor Amsterdam so if you’re there you can also just submit some there you can get them for uh get them to ship it to your country as well yeah it will probably works out we’ll probably be a label again they were at Worlds last year also with the worlds label so I heard some uh I thought I read somewhere that Matt Rogers is designing a new players lab as well I heard that but I don’t think there’s like any real details on that yet yeah we’ll have to see when that comes out maybe I’ll show one uh at some later point the only details I’ve heard is like he wasn’t satisfied with how it looks how it looks I don’t H the only down you see the grade right yeah I guess the only thing I could say is like the the label placement is sometimes kind of awkward for Fab cards it also is awkward for Marvels cuz for the Marvel it covers the text on the back maybe maybe it doesn’t I’m not sure actually it doesn’t cover text I think but it’s it doesn’t look great because of the double-sided it’s okay they can somehow get it on the side or something I wonder that would be kind of sick but in the meantime there’s a there’s a German finals uh being played right now oh where um I’m not too sure who is supposed to be starting I think Tom was seed I think boo was pretty high I think beo was SE two or three yeah so I assume bino got to choose who starting and if you let I think you would always let Zen start in that case yeah I agree I think so cuz if you let if you go first they get to have one turn where they’re uninterrupted for free yeah uh and that pushes a bunch of damage and after that you just need to find AR War at some point and push the rest of the damage oh looks like uh he is attacking Tom he’s being shifting winds yeah shifting winds generally not the card that you want in hand is that yellow bonds oh he’s filling the grave with the yellow bonds okay yellow bonds I don’t know if he did it specifically because he knows what match up this is so there’s more Bonds in his deck yeah that does mean there’s more than six Bonds in this deck most likely mhm which is good for him cuz now if bonds gets hit you only lose three out of nine instead of three out of six yeah I was I was thinking like what if you just side board the seventh and the seventh bonds and the seventh Gus wave just to play around uh bonds of Agony a little bit better that’s pretty funny but I don’t think I don’t feel like that’s correct I mean if you’re really scared of playing as new might you can also just buck away your bonds and descendant so never get them hit right so well I think B was there considering playing homage no transcend just for the one HP MH decided against it cuz he probably can get the one HP here also yeah or he could get the double transcend off or something mhm so it didn’t I think it didn’t seem like the correct move for him he might just want the chi in his deck also wait what is this usually news don’t play toke go again if you’re if you’re Tom you’re like yeah okay it’s lit5 it’s low so oh it’s not lit it’s not lit anymore no it’s persuasive if this is Justin Nick you’re so mad you’re so mad yeah and the problem about this card is like when you block it they banish and they get to do the transcend you’re not happy you lost two cards mhm if you don’t block it and they they hit they get to do the transcend mhm they hit and you lose two cards yeah so you’re still not happy it’s like there’s no good outcomes here and the sick thing foro is he can literally have nothing and there’s the transcend there’s plus one Health weren’t sure what he bought him with the United strike but it seems to be the extra card he drew I think it was a CNC so you’re right two cards gone yeah so now Tom is supposed to play the game with only two cards in hand and one in Arsenal mhm at least boino didn’t go on his own Arsenal but you’re not super happy I mean you can kind of live through this a couple turns like you need to fill your grave anyways if you’re Z this this is not filling the grave though problem no no but I mean you can play slower turns yeah and have your big turn later it’s not that big of a deal but still doesn’t feel great especially if your hand kind of bricky now yeah and another problem is bino is healing with this as well oh yeah I forgot about that part he’s on 42 one is going up one is going down and we we talked earlier a bit about the the the range you need to get him into like a low health health total where you can actually keep the tempo and pressure his life total if he has too much life he won’t care and he just keeps hand and he disrupts you it does seem like we have the first transcend for Zen in the game okay this one of the things Zen needs to get done yeah so there’s this one thing that you need to do as Z as soon as possible and that’s getting a chi into your deck because it’s not that common that you actually get to uh get to transcend in this matchup cuz you’re so low on hand you’re always getting forced down on hand and like it’s very hard to keep two Blues in hand when you’re also trying to do something proactively so we do see him get the second mly Chi uh to to play out this turn so probably just looking like a Crouch M turn which is fine yeah it’s h it’s one from shuko so you get like seven SL six sl8 damage might be eight if it hits so it’s a pretty solid two card hand and you get an Arsenal and one thing we also notice is like you do want to have an Arsenal in this match up even though there’s like so much Arsenal disruption mhm if you don’t force them to threaten Your Arsenal it’s pretty hard to ever play the game you’re making it easier for them cuz now they only have to focus on disrupting your hand mhm now you’re at least making them choose what they’re going to disrupt yeah and like when they throw disruption On Your Arsenal you’re like okay have it and then you have a four card hand and then you still have a four card hand and four card hands in Zen are pretty good or they can be pretty good you know the funny part is the way you word it that made it sound like one of those YouTube clickbait titles you know like the one thing you need to do in s yeah although someone’s goingon to make content out of us he’s going to make a video like that and just use your voice recording I mean it would work oh no it will work perfectly and it does seem like the Ming she is hitting so oh so it it was two card eight yeah and send so now back to for oh no no no no it it it got blocked by the but we force the cett us out at least yeah um I mean the getting the transcend done is pretty important cuz at some point you need to give him Traverse to try and pivot the game and if you haven’t transcended you don’t even have the option to do that yeah so for example right now if he had an art of war and had he could have already shoved yeah like Art of War you can shove to reverse to get the CH you can shove the boots to get the tiger and then you have a six card hand you have a seven card hand actually kind of uh and then you banish the tiger that you get from the boots with arar you get actual cards looks like we had a YouTube chat survey and there 66% votes that boo will win this match yep and 34 for Tom I think that makes sense right it’s like it feels like a 66 34 kind of matchup I feel like Zen is like slightly unfavored but not like too unfavored that is unwinable yeah it’s also really dependent on skill level yeah for sure I think if you’re not a really really good new you can get run over if you make some small mistakes oh but we see the double disruption turn with surgical into something El with zero cost can you imagine any card that cost zero Jimmy yeah a lot one of them is called codex one of them is called leave no Witnesses I guess codex doesn’t have a great Target right now yeah I don’t think there’s a Le no Witnesses in his graveyard yet what does he have his hand Leave No Witnesses oh he does yeah wow I can’t believe that one of these guesses was right isn’t that crazy he’s taking The Descendant kind of makes sense because he could transcend off The Descendant and search the bonds with Z you can also transcend off of ancestral harmony though yeah but then he only has one of the the bonds pieces yeah unless he has one in Arsenal but it was codex of fry going after another prognosis you said it was leave the witnesses you like silly Jimmy believing me well at least this one is kind of face up you know you can actually block this with shoes shoes but do you want to block it with your Nikes at least this one is not one of the toxic ones where he’s one in hand and he’s going to just anick you and make everything you did useless yeah but you’re right still also the commanding conquer not great anym wait he did play codex so he has Ponder so he has a Ponder he will have Arsenal but if you block with ancestro Harmony it’s un banished to be played by new later I mean listen b know if you’re going to win at least win with triple ancestral Harmony cuz that’s cool but what if they just whiff off the top they can just doesn’t yet hit yellow right do you mean if they we on the top we’ve we’ve seen I guess he did put his yellow Bonds in the deck yeah we’ve seen yellow bonds I feel like the strategy usually doesn’t work out yeah I don’t think so either especially because he’s rolling red and blue if you’re holding only blue you can maybe gamble it’s like a 50/50 to be blue or red or yellow combined but in this situation it doesn’t feel too good oh he he’s going for it though he’s thinking about it I do feel blocking with CNC isn’t too bad because like uh you can still do ancestral Harmony wait what is the transcend preserve tradition you can still do that and then push like what is it five damage it’s not great it it sound it sound a lot cooler before you calculated it I mean also depends a little bit what his Arsenal is yeah you can actually get like three card bonds combo because you get the resource from casaya oh he’s giving a s oh no no Tom oh no this is onethird of the wi con I swear this Isam flashbacks right now dude I played against fed and Sebastian at the same time and they they they keep doing it to me yeah it’s so consistent they keep hitting me for 30 I’m like this game is so free you’re on five you have one hand what are you going to dude oh you nude oh you’re going to hit me for 30 mhm oh I die because my hand blocks eight oh that’s that’s unlucky but at least this way Tom did get to pressure back uh bino a little bit by playing the CNC so maybe he will be able to find a window uh in the following turn yeah where he only gets single disrupted or where he I don’t know doesn’t get disrupted at all but the thing is bino has a lot of life to play with is it if his hand is good he can just let the Arsenal go go yeah but it’s still like you’re still getting you don’t really want to go below 30 life it’s very scary yeah but you’re kind of fine at 35 you’re until he dies you could be at 4 he’s fine until he dies yeah wait he’s only taking one card he is considering like an in kind of thing oh he’s blocking with a hiss and taking three so let’s see our will go it was the blind Ponder maybe isn’t the greatest card oh wait that’s a pretty that’s a pretty good card though maybe doesn’t have the blue attack it seems like it just didn’t line up well for his hand um which does happen sometimes with new it feels like sometimes you just don’t draw what you want to be drawing with new it’s like sometimes you just suddenly draw zero disruption even though your deck is full of disruption right sometimes you like all the attacks or all the reacts or the reacts that don’t Target the attacks like you could have just a Nick a light and strike something and basically if you ever give give Zen a finger they just take your entire hand and all of your life and your house your your house your family you have some you have some problems with Z yet no I’m I’m fine take your family are you are you being held hostage right now you a little bit okay I can’t help you there my ankle hurts so you’re on your own but he’s over pitching now he pitched venomous bite under a double trouble what do you think happens when you over pitch like this it’s codc City yes codc City but is this again going to be oh no he has two floating of course for surgical extraction I thought it would be CNC but this is also perfectly fine yeah surgical extraction after skill peeler hits so the armor doesn’t really block well oh you skill yeah that’s pretty sick he can’t really cover with the Strider reprisal he can use his other armor but like the less value on it there’s still one floating from T on tunic so technically he can make it a cical for five if he really wants to you can probably cover it up with two cars but the problem is you’re in this infinite Loop where you’re like I don’t want to give you two cars but if I don’t give you two cards you’re taking one card anyway yeah do I give two cards or do I give one card if I if I don’t block and I give you one card then I’m going like minus five on my health or minus four in this case unless he arousing waves he’s giving shuko he’s like V is a nice guy he’s like remember this scale peer yeah are you sure you want to be blocking with your armor oh no way he can block four but the arousing wave is right there and he was also like good are you sure you want to block with your temper armor when it’s minus one defense oh it’s gone no it’s it’s not temper it’s Play Break oh right it’s play bre yeah but B’s a nice guy while he was holding the Shi he’s like dude do you remember the skill feeler you know what this does yeah but also sometimes forcing equipments out like this like you’re forcing bino to go minus one value on the arousing wave mhm if he wants to pump it up to five but Theo is a big price you’re already getting here even if nothing happens yeah you’re you’re already quite happy here you are scared of like potential Art of War popups but like he didn’t block with a Traverse or with the stri of reprisal you might be kind of fine so I think as maybe we can do something like uh play the count the shuko value mini game after this oh no I’m going to see how many shuko triggers he misses because of this yeah and boo just chooses to not use the arousing wave to to force a hit through I think it’s very disciplin yeah I think that I think it’s definitely correct to do something like this I think the whole game he’s shown that he’s playing pretty disciplined because the Justin letting Justin it go is not every something everything everyone would do yeah it’s a big shiny car it does five he let it go for CNC and he gave him a card on it he did need a spot for codex of fry so he need he needed to free it up somehow and I guess he couldn’t play it out so maybe it worked out yeah but but even then definitely a line that I wouldn’t have specifically thought of there it’s so okay so there’s the first half of the Senate bonds there’s a second half of the center bonds so we saw the yellow Bond sitting in Arsenal for a while sh trigger on this cuz it’s actually a three it just gets minus one from Frailty right I mean it wouldn’t trigger anyway cuz the descender was three but no half shuko trigger either this graveyard is kind of depressing honestly this is the problem there 100 wins a mingi and uh another bonds obviously it’s not going to be bonds right now uh Zen also suffers from the mini problem that that L suffered from like if you block your cards are getting banished you can’t your so your grave stays like this yeah un with the cards you played unless they attack with stuff like surgical extraction or cnc’s for all the stealth cards it’s like very annoying to block and slowly you’re running out of resources as well so like if he if he takes a mingi right now that means no Ming cheese for the rest of the game yeah cuz there’s already one in banish right mhm if he takes 100 wins there’s probably still a bunch of them but 100 win doesn’t do that much damage it seems like bino is deciding to double transcend double transcend taking away one of those cards okay but luckily B does not Target yeah luckily for Tom the way Bond Works he is he gets to choose when it resolves the ability so he always has something to choose here but BAU just said I’m taking wait did he take his best Target yeah he still has one more Ming key I feel like 100 wins might have been a better Target mhm because uh he has two resources floating right right now he can do tiger taming kakara wait but that’s only for one yeah yeah yeah so I guess mingi does do one more damage but taking the 100 wins is interesting in its own way because now it’s eliminated as an option not just on this bonds I’ll say on the other bonds yeah whereas the Ming Chi you already played the last one so yeah if he plays the it’s already it’s already gone you’re already out of M and cheese yeah so there’s that consideration as well it’s a interesting tradeoff there’s a bunch of micro decisions here so this one is three just a three followed by just a one he’s like where is the rest of your 100 wins not here except for one of them wait there’s one more card in hand for I kind of completely missed that isn’t oh we’re getting some new info in I think it’s uh for us to read okay I know you don’t like reading but try sometimes sometimes but yeah it seems like it’s just going to be the tiger te in kakara for one and it might be that Tom is going to be Arsenal the last card in his hand this car is so sad no tiger buff it’s for one so what we see Tom doing very well is constantly putting a card in Arsenal so he can still play out like four card hands after a single disruption yeah and we’ve gotten him under the 30 threshold and we only lost chuko so far oh but we’re seeing new getting activated right now is it blue it is it’s blue going oh no there there’s a descended wait there’s a descended bonds combo but I think there’s a yellow one so he he can’t descender bonds combo is new yet we can see all the blue cards l out maybe nope we do see one ancestral Harmony One blue 100 wins one blue descendant Gus wave know I know it looks shiny right now but don’t play the ancestro harmony please yeah don’t do it yet it’s not good yet don’t do it yet the time is not yet but he he knew for a reason did he just draw a hand with zero disruption he has another she in hand right oh because of the double trans I can’t see what’s behind the fa he’s very good at Double uh I think it’s the grain he’s very good at dou moving it I think you’re right I saw grain and there’s e strike at the bottom so there’s actually no disruption here yeah he needs to play a blue to be able to play grain but there’s no disruption in general so it’s like if Tom has a good hand here yeah he can basically threaten yeah probably threaten lethal because that’s how Zen works I mean it’s probably not lethal but he a very good position to be in because he’s not going to be forced to shove at all you can just take like what what will it be like six to eight oh he’s not even he’s going for Easter EG go again what does this mean he’s going for Easter EG 7even wow that’s not wait he’s keeping the chi in hand he’s Arsenal and fade that was for sure so he’s just going for the wait he’s wait don’t play that no he can play that he he didn’t play a blue card yet okay so what you have to be careful with what you’re doing here you know did it properly if you play a blue before and then you play one of their transcend guards they get the chi not you also now he’s going to be playing the crane for plus one he just wants a shuffle or was it a path while traveled maybe I think it’s a plus one but this is so funny this is such a weird interaction normally you would layer the trans sense to stack he’s Arsenal it or did he bottom it already he’s just leaving everything in banish he he’s preparing for the big ancest harmony po he’s doing the Duke Sebastian thing but Tom has like he’s been strangled this entire time and now he’s like let free into the open world you can do whatever you want like this seven I mean he take he’s taking one card but four card hand you’re not mad mhm four card hand seven vanilla you’re definitely not mad if you’re talk yeah when you’re playing four card hands you always feel like okay I finally push some damage through mhm so whenever I get to shove like my equipments in front I can finally you know go for the win what is yellow descendant there’s a yellow descendant that’s too power so one small thing here is that since he already gave shuko he can’t shove on a CNC or a weakest link I don’t think Pino is playing weakest link but because he doesn’t have enough coverage on block anymore he can’t do it on surgical or leave no Witnesses it does seem like Tom is playing the pitching a red bonds of ancestry so has another bonds there you go it doesn’t seem like the ideal hand like and also if we look back at what happened last turn if he had banished 100 wins this turn wouldn’t line up well yeah you see the SL you saw the slide Grimace or how do you say it in English he didn’t look that happy Tom mhm because 100 wins is the only target it’s very unlikely he has another 100 wins and even if he does it’s like three into four or one into two or three into two or one into two I wonder what card could be in Arsenal right now I think it’s it might just be a transcend maybe or maybe not but he didn’t play a he didn’t play a blue so he can’t get it out if it’s a transcend right now unless he searches blue 100 wins I do feel like transcends are probably the best card to put in Arsenal because you can still get a little bit of value out of it I mean sometimes sometimes you get away with crime like if if they see andc you and you double transend then you’re good mhm then if CNC go again and play codex a real on your disc don’t don’t do that play it play it after resolution don’t don’t do that I guess you can’t play it after resolution on the CNC but oh that’s kind of sad that’s kind of sad if that happens oh I was going to ARS on this codex but you gave me go again is he grabbing a blue 100 wins to play out here might transcend full focus on his face so what what happens if he transcends here gets a resource to C I can’t search mink key anymore can’t search Spinning Wheel kick spinning wheel for four maybe goes he doesn’t go off of Arsenal either that’s a shuko value Miss Jimmy should should it’s not there yet it is right it’s yellow it’s yellow red descendant is yellow it’s two oh it’s one it’s one it’s actually just one I’m pretty sure it didn’t happen on was already correcting for the shuko uh Power oh no nope nope no she CL cuz usually it’s still here usually it’s part of your mega shove wait but he didn’t play out the Arsenal card here so it doesn’t I don’t think it was not a transcent either so it’s just a preserve value in deck but taking a blue 100 wins by taking a blue hundred wins or he’s out all of the red ones already he’s scared of it getting banished by new ability possibly oh no we see silver getting used is there levels of Enlightenment there uhoh we see two being is there level of there but is it though I do think I do there one there’s one there’s one there’s one there’s one but the rest of the cards don’t seem very blue to me it looks like a lot of Reds this is the risk you can uh run into if you pitch all your Blues to the silver ni but he used tunic for this so he’s still getting two modes yeah but if he doesn’t draw a blue that the hand kind of falls apart probably it’s just a leave no witness is with uh with plus three if this is a blue this hands com like infinitely better what color his is it what color his is it boo you’re kind of covering it with the shadow of your hand you know I mean it’s still not very visible he helped us out but he still didn’t really help us out he’s trying to help us out but if this is another red the only followup here is like uh just just leave no Witnesses for for eight just to leave no Witnesses for eight is that what you said yes it’s just Leal Witnesses for eight what your what’s your issue man that’s a big Leal Witnesses wait what’s this yeah he’s going to reacted up to eight yeah oh yeah he already pitched the blue so yeah it might actually just be a leave no Witnesses for Aid mhm Tom has to be sus here cuz he has pitched the blue wait oh no it’s snag he’s snagging from Arsenal that’s so interesting this is the card that was in Arsenal all along that’s so interesting because you’re maybe you’re like why did he do that there’s no Plus on this but he was going to lose it anyway and by playing it now boo can play his HS if he wants to he’s going to get the slitter at least but the funny part is this I think it’s actually correct for beo to use one of these reactions because they’re so bricky right now yeah might even even need to use the litter for nothing here and Arsenal CNC or you might pitch CNC is there a CNC in Hunt I don’t think there is Oh I thought there was one before what the I it’s Phenom bite Phenom bite his so he’s going to get a slitter no no plus he get go again as well Thomas like please please please man don’t don’t don’t don’t do more disruption things and I think we still saw all the art of wor oh there’s the second ancest Harmony he’s two3 of the way to the Wi con yeah oh I mean he still needs a couple more attacks in there but that will that will happen yeah and meanwhile Tom hasn’t found any Art of War so far yet I can see homage what else do I see I think it’s a double transcend hand and an and an energy in hand already so it’s I kind of not the best hand is one of them to draw this card at least the Rising Moon and with kind of not the best hand I mean it’s it’s only like your your average uh how much damage hand is a is a Zen hand like 17 something like that I don’t do you do 17 with this hand I’m not sure if there’s a descendant there I think so that’s true but he’s still with the same issue that is the sender targets aren’t super great that’s true there’s still bonds or there’s still 100 wins found tiger swipe or anything yet very annoying tiger swipe chase a tail I think [Music] o I think it is is it Rising is one of them Rising they draw this card draw draw bottom oh my go no path well traveled oh not really what you want here he’s currently just kind of thinking how to how to convert this hand yeah you can just uh it’s definitely going to be pitch G play descendant or pitch something else play descendant then transcend he’s considering to transcend during an opponent’s turn because of snag being played from Arsenal mhm but I think you don’t really need to I think you need to with the triple Chi hand and you also have enough resources in general because you have three blues already anyway I think you can just pitch G in your own turn then transcend off the ghost where yeah you can just pitch G transcend probably Arsenal one of those transcend cards mhm but he does go for the transcend on the opponent’s turn there’s a universe I don’t think this is the one but there ‘s a universe where you Zen here just to get the Tiger in case he would have to play chase the tail or something but he’s going to search his bonds anyway with the Zen so this is not that Universe mhm and I still don’t think there’s good Targets in grave for uh descendant bonds yeah it’s like H winds yeah that’s basically it being out of Ming cheese is rough least with kakara so after the kakara he’s going to play descendant search for bonds play bonds probably play the tiger as well for the one value get the 100 wins and get 100 wins Arsenal the other transcend that sounds like it the other transcender is a little bit more Awkward though because of uh’s the other one that’s path Tred because you need to Target something I wonder if he should have passive what was the last Target leave no Witnesses it it already had go again at that point so it could he could have maybe should have pth traveled and saved aage for his own Arsenal yeah I think that would have been a little bit uh a little bit nicer to do wait what is this plan he got FL FL surface so he’s not going to descend descended it seems like it’s going to be uh a weapon attack Crouching Tiger fluster Fist Line Arenal descendant so he’s taking like the off turn to get another Target in his grave yeah which makes sense I think he was really in need of another Target yeah and he he’s almost there I think I would have taken chase the tail or tiger swipe you could have done Chase the to in some way I think I mean you’re going to do four with it at the end it’s kind of the same right I think taking Chase or you could take spinning too Chase spinning tiger swipe just have some more flexibility on the go again but maybe he wants the zero cost here but tiger swipe is also a zero cost isn’t there still uh path TR in hand and a descendant wave what’s happening this this turn that’s a good question wait that is a good question because he can’t pitch to stuff anymore he doesn’t have go again right now he didn’t play a blow card yet so the pathw traveled won’t be he might ip1 himself and hold the G from this position it seems like good he could have searched key on leash to do a bit more damage but probably doesn’t help his future Bond most do play it anyway so probably he he’s just not on it uhoh rousing wave block oh no that’s a five card hand that is a five card hand on the no side he ip1 himself but didn’t path either so one thing we also need to keep into account is uh we see we have art of wars coming up right we also have shifting winds coming up oh let’s POG well kind of POG cuz we have G now we have a bunch of G and deck and there is Art of War there’s also fluster fist there’s just one Art of War right would have lik to search something different with the fluster fist now but it might might still be a big turn might be enough this is the one that stops armor blocks right yeah um it does seem like a hard hand to convert though there’s a dis rounds on me in hand as well so you’re supposed to banish the fluster fist off of the r War currently or of course the tiger no you’re I think you’re pitching the was it Trum you see Trum this round on me you might pitch trom for arar yeah probably shove the entire equipment Suite here but is the shove only looks for three right no yeah that’s kind of depressing is it the next time equipment blocks yeah so he maybe he can shove the the boots now yeah just to lose the scale effect get the tiger anyway and then he can shove the rest mhm seems that be cuz if you shove everything at the same time you’re only blocking two yeah and I think this is around the time you need to shove uhoh oh no there’s bonds of Agony right when Art of War is in hand uhoh and all of his cards are blocking for not much uhoh uhoh yeah this is uhoh probably has to expect the attack reaction to be there too sure the plus three as well as the rousing wave on the board yeah like Boo’s not IP oneing for this so so a single uh attack reaction on Boo’s side means if you assume the plus three right mhm that goes up to five8 eight power how do you even block this your minus minus armor value minus attack action value yeah I think you just block try to block your entire hand and play out the AR ofar and kind of be sad for a turn give bino another turn afterwards but you’re definitely not happy doing this so this is at least there’s rounds five that’s five yeah so if he uses Art of War plus one plus one oh so he’s going to six if you place the Fang strike so the very least he forced out both uh both reactions equip I forgot it’s nine and now he’s going to Art of War defensively yeah but it only Buffs the fluster F yeah so it’s only buffing one so he’s going up to six Block versus the is it nine I think it is nine yeah so he still going to hit but he has no more hand so yeah but at least he didn’t take all of your art OFW or all of your descendants and you still have your armor you do get a couple of your cards banished such as the fluster Fist and the dis rounds on me it’s not the worst but yeah you don’t really care too much about oh yeah you get you do get to search your opponent’s deck even if you’re no target for the hand yeah and you do get to shuffle their deck there’s tiger swipe in there so one of the interesting things is um I read that one of the interesting things is that in Zen if you don’t find your aror for long enough you could just be shuffling your art ofar to bottom every time yeah there’s no guarantee that you will find your art ofar within the first 15 turns like other decks do mhm they not really taking good look at the deck it’s understandable the Nationals final he’s probably taking a look of how many descendants and how many bonds are still left mhm um so I think there’s still plenty Tom has to be a bit sad this looked like a hand that would potentially help him get back into the game there’s a descendant there’s Art of War there’s a blue there’s a chi and a tiger if you would have shoved yeah but bonds of Agony plus skill peeler and spider spite I I think you’re right I don’t think you can’t play through it he he couldn’t play through it just impossible all time disruption here is the yard of War so but also you uh boo didn’t push a lot of damage in that turn so if Tom just manages to top deck another Art of War here he’s still kind of okay all it needed to do is stop deck another arar instead MH he’s not even looking at it yet it’s not there I don’t see the yellow orange yet do see a che I think there’s bonds and I do see a couple of bonds so it could be a double bonds turn if he doesn’t get disrupted mhm but we do see uhoh new coming in finishing the third ancestral Harmony uh uhoh look at how fast he went look at how fast hands are look he knows he knows this is how you kill Z oh no he’s at 12 life oh yeah look at those blue wait there’s not that many oh there’s really not that many wait there’s not that many wait oh no he banished his own wait he’s still doing it oh no there’s so many blue cards getting banished thumbs up I mean this still 12 I can’t believe boo didn’t hit a combo card in his own deck he’s 12 plus he’s descendant 100 wins and another is there no bond in banish I wonder if this is maybe slightly too early with not enough attack action no I think this is fine but he’s on 12 Z is at 12 you’re pushing four plus 4 plus 4 damage yeah it’s 12 that’s exactly 12 and then you still have your own attacks oh there goes casaya oh is this going to be a z stating I think he has to Zen state so the good timing is to let this chain link resolve and then you Zen State on the next one mhm so you get the block value on the C damage here okay this is my hand now and now I believe voo tried to break the chain but before Breaking the Chain you can still use uh an ability because Breaking the Chain is actually something that happens once both players pass priority in the link St mhm and he by saying I break the chain that’s not a real action you do it’s just uh it means I pass priority do you also want to pass priority MH and your opponent needs to agree with this and usually this is like kind of a fluid thing like usually if you don’t play an attack action anymore your opponent doesn’t want to keep the chain open either but in this case it matters so won’t take anything from this yep you can just one card Block Force now that’s pretty cool and and also the daggers don’t do anything anymore what’s kind of nice is he gets to block this and I don’t get banished we did play a blue card so has two go again dice next to it now he still might have enough damage to push oh and there there comes a reaction on top to push Tom to a decent oh no is that a blue 100 wins yeah oh it’s mine now wait that’s mine he’s like oh look at this we playing this one oh that’s so sad this is for five that’s so sad and it gets a plus one because the 100 oh oh no he only took four that that 100 wins he only this might be enough to push it over I think he’s there let’s only leave no Witnesses from here oh no there’s the his this is for seven is there wait but he didn’t give him block yeah yeah being a bit too fast there a little bit over zealous over here but what do you do with your Tom you’re giving yeah you got Helm you got a you know it’s seven now you got a two block you lose your Arsenal afterwards you do still have a chi he wants the tiger and the tiger do you want the tiger so what do you end up doing with a chi and a tiger in this swipe what does tiger swipe do here four yeah you make another tiger that does zero that would have gotten shuko value F Sho in the end it didn’t miss too much value but his hands also didn’t line up that well also he took a billion disruption I think he’s not there but he’s basically there but Jimmy the good part is he does finally have fuel for bonds again that’s real cool when I’m dead man he’s not dead that’s real cool when I’m on the brink of death man he is on the brink of death that’s for sure he’s still surgical extraction oh that’s what he pitched yeah he he’s going to pitch it for his I should have daggered maybe dagger’s hit for zero oh I forgot about Zen stady yeah we’re in Zen City right now so seven takes five goes to one has a chi in hand and a tiger oh he’s playing out the litter so he doesn’t want it in Arsenal I don’t know if he even bothered making the tiger oh he’s passing he’s giving it go again okay so now he has a two chi in hand there’s a second dice there oh he doesn’t have in hand no he didn’t play a blue card yet but he wants to prevent the banish from leave no Witnesses because otherwise you can uh you can he can still give it go again or something yeah you can in the in the resolution step you can still give it Go Again wait there’s a fluster fist he can take it no not like this no way not like this is this how it end no way oh my God Dino noing is the German national champion that’s so sick he took the 100 wins from his hand for spe Happ spe spee okay the finals are through we have a new German Champion um we will have a winners and uh finalist interview in about a minute I guess um and we will also broadcast live the winner ceremony um shortly coming up as well yeah okay so this is us Jimmy here Ian here and yeah let’s go ahead this was not exactly planned because we didn’t didn’t know what to expect but yeah tell us what went through your head when you won the match uh to be honest not really that much I mean might sound very strange but actually I did forget about uh playing the finals at the during the game I really just enjoyed playing I literally forgot and I was so tired from the weekend uh so literally not that much actually and also I was not really I I didn’t do the math I didn’t know if the fluster fist would be lethal or not and uh it was kind of very likely to win at this point so I didn’t really think that much I just slammed all the cards I found and hope it would fit well same question to you Tom when when you realize okay this okay this is probably it what he’s doing now will probably end the game what went through your head well let’s just say I’ve been in this spot last year so not very much I don’t know it happens like he had really good disruption whole game he played really well we had a really friendly match I had fun I’m very happy with my finish also um the matchup is not too great for me he could choose to go second in the beginning so I knew I was in for a rough ride and totally fine for me like I’m happy with my finish we had a nice game Co conversation all good didn’t through my head went that I’m happy with that I got here again which is unreal to me as well let’s assume third time is the charm and next year you if I remember correctly you are as of now the first first two time finalist we’ve ever had so uh that’s an achievement in itself that’s great already and yeah we were very happy I guess you two were commentating the the whole game and we’re also towards the end getting very excited because you saw okay boino is just not he’s doing this and might this be enough right that was yeah I think when I was playing new uh yeah new versus Z testing I’m usually playing new versus ffam or Sebastian and the way I usually died is they play triple and they hit me for 30 with my own cards and so when he did the new ability at the start of turn I was like it’s kind of looking like that because we already saw all the harmonies in the banish but there were only three cards in banish to be played yeah and then he revealed the attack actions it’s only like two descendants and four blues in hand that turn yeah I was like okay maybe it’s not actually over but but then he took your blue from your hand with the attack reaction at the end he banishes a fluster fist happens it happens but it’s it’s so crazy yeah it was a crazy game to see and it was it was a beautiful game like both of you played very well so yeah you did you did and let’s not forget it was a very long weekend and as you said it was very very you’re kind of toxic you’re flaming all the other Zen including the one you beat in semi-final did you not beat another Zen in semi-finals okay okay didn’t bully anyone he did he’s a nice guy they’re both nice guys I think there was also one moment that was really sportsmanlike he was like you were going to block with the shuko and then he shows you like the skill peeler or he reminds you with the one block it was nice of reminding me you had it was really friendly yeah that’s what it looked like to us as well you have any more questions well I’m wondering if you guys are planning to go to Amsterdam next month both of you yes you’re planning to go to Worlds 2 using that travel reimbursement or I’m not sure yet I have to look into it I have to see if I get vacation days and it’s always problem it’s a it’s a I probably can’t attend Jaan is on the bucket list I don’t think so okay let’s going there for my own I definitely cannot take my team mates with me and going there alone is just boring so you’re part of team meeples right you have been training a lot we saw a few of you guys um playing uh during the whole weekend in your shirts and also uh sticking together and you also a mirror match yesterday so uh how was preparation phase for you coming up before the event um we drafted in the in the runways Cube ah the classic uh obviously like everyone did um also we tested a lot about uh like using Talesha and well then we have our local Armory and all but to be honest I didn’t test that much during the last week I was on vacation and I arrived on Friday coming from my vacation uh like just with the train and I didn’t play for one and a half weeks so I think I got kind of Lucky so what the German national champion just told us is practice less go on holiday okay yeah I’m going on holiday for next week and I will win Dutch Nationals shining example to many of us I hope you guys are crazy how was your your preparation phase how was it well I did like some testing but I didn’t like spend days and days and days grinding the deck like I played some games here and there drafted in The Runaways Discord of course uh we did some like local drafts of course with all of our locals and yeah I just tried to familiarize myself with the deck enough I’d say and just try to pick a good deck tune the list and go from there and try not to stress too much about it just so that I can go in with a clear head and not put pressure on myself and that has always worked best for me speaking of locals and local play what’s your nearest game store where you attending playing what’s your team any information any shout outs you want to leave on the stream uh we play either at City Comics in liik or at the TCG Warehouse um our team bubles I would say we are more like locals rather than an organized team we are just all friends that travel to events together of course we test but we are not like a really not super hardcore not super Hardcore team yet yet okay so two cool St two good stores nearby leig to attend to and play games and uh spend time in the flesh and blood playing flesh and blood which is great to hear since we are in the almost Western most part of Germany so it’s cool that you came across and there’s a it’s a lot harder to play a lot in the east of Germany there are fewer stores you have to go further there is not like you can just drive half an hour and have 10 stores to choose from it has always been like a kind of dead area you always have to travel quite a bit speaking of traveling you said you needed to go home and home is in Bim right I saw highlander games on your that’s your favorite store and your home store yes it’s my home store and uh I love the community and I also want to shout out to the uh highlander games Breman Community also my team obviously and uh special thanks also to lonus because he uh didn’t attend and thanks lonus for being like at the PC for the whole weekend and watching all the streams and supporting us writing messages and uh like being here even without being here thanks for that yeah cool so uh we’re at a pretty good point I guess um we have a new Champion not a new runner up but still one of the best achievements uh second two-time finalist so that’s very great thanks to both of you for the interviews um very stressful day for the both of you so thank you very much uh we will be coming up with the uh winner ceremony next the prize ceremony I guess and yeah until then thank you see you in a bit I guess right so um how about us three um do you have any any words before we go to the ceremony and from there on end the stream probably or do you want to go back in the booth and say all it doesn’t really matter where we say it but I’m not sure what we’re going to say you need to oh we need to come here it’s getting crowded blocking the national champion yeah I don’t know what to say I’m just uh very happy to be back casting with Ian after two years right it was the last time we also accommodated the National Championship in Germany so it was a really fun experience to do it again uh it was U we had a lot of high quality games on stream so all of this very fun to watch good practice for us as well right cuz we’re still in the middle of our prep for next week yeah yeah so your event will be streamed live um our event will also be streamed live um we probably won’t do commentary but I don’t think there will be commentary for it MH and we might only do the CC rounds uh we’re not too sure on the exacts yet but uh our Nationals will be in next week uh next weekend as well so so uh yeah personally we’ll be playing as well so uh we’re leaving the tooing part to someone else we’re leaving it to Blackfire so it should be in good hands mhm it should be in good hands um in any case yeah we we are pretty prepped now are we yeah yeah we we know all the drafts ins and out we know all the CC ins and outs we have learned from all the matchups we know exactly what deck to pick so you’re playing Zen yeah I’m playing Zen and I’m playing prison you’re also playing Zen I’m also playing Zen yeah we need to fix some more cards Jimmy okay guys I want to buy one Zen deck preferably with gold foils uhhuh and then uh we should be able to get there top two maybe yeah and with that uh winner ceremonies coming up in uh 30 seconds maybe I would like to take the chance and um to take the opportunity and thank the both of you very much for commentating once more another year uh we
