CS:GO - Endpoint vs. Team Liquid [Inferno] Map 1 - ESL Pro League Season 13 - Group D

get ready for the least biased casting you have ever heard it's team britain taking on north america oh yeah and the brits it's coming home get them at the docks forget yeah the boys it's all about yeah the lads endpoint seaside start inferno their map pick these guys have been on the grind 50 maps played this year already and many more to go what have we got stewie with some util down banana it's a slow start for end point waiting for the grenades and robin will get a bit dusted up by one still walking towards b one man here tony stewie got the smoke but will end point respect it is the question that may depend on the timing that stewie throws it in right now he's fighting and they could just commit off of the volley of utility surreal lurking apartments about to figure out what's going on it's a four-man setup he's only seen two and he ducks out of there that will send endpoint into this b bomb site as stewie's waiting to receive oh stewie through the smoke mighty max on the receiving end surreal is waiting for this lower push gonna deal with him still the bomb is down in b end point guys it's just weird to say that name in the pro league man but it's sick they're holding off they're waiting for this retake to come through there's crucial with one naff gonna trade it out it's left onto robin at the back of the site the lone swede in the 1v3 and he's been spotted but not dealt with yet a chance at the clutch after all very very low on hp so he's got to be damn near flawless here and stewie takes his head off at the first opportunity team liquid grab themselves a pistol round they get off to a good start yeah for a solo beefer sure that's one hell of a hold right had that tap through the smoke and then even staying alive for the retake alongside fallen to whether the stewie fallen combo on the desk as well right it's such a it's such a pleasure it's so great to see them back together right now endpoint the question is today forced right bon pont you can always get some aks in you can get a bit of an early buy and try and break the money they're gonna sort of do that robin gets a hero rifle everyone else ecos just running a mark running right up mid with no fear triple b for liquid means long is open for the taking robin just walks out oh my goodness they have no idea look at the room he's gained he hears a jump and he takes down fall and no trey from the short side they're too late to the angle and actually a second player makes it by as well elijah's finally here but the a rap has begun and they don't really know where liquid are they think they're entrenched in the site because these short players have not peaked out early and boy in to rapping right now liquid getting boxed in they've got to know about it they look back but it's too late robin kills the lead grim trays but he's gone to surreal and even cutting off the banana flank a bit late is flames oh dear stewie goes back and flames will get him down and out four on one and guns given over to endpoint now as naf has to save no choice lovely timing found by robin don't know how he got in there but reading into the triple b no repeat on the short side and it didn't seem like liquid were aware just how far the endpoint were getting yeah great stuff that had come in with this victory right you have the uh the hero rifle doing its part robin with that big double kill to kind of get endpoint in in the first place and then the pistol players you know like doing a good job of just swarming the short side and not giving you any room if you're team liquid that might even get hunted down by flames he's right next to him right next to it naf watch out flames go go go go go there it is gets away with the farmers that's fine four spies gonna come back in for team liquid endpoint though upsetting us early on with a little bit of a force by victory of their own yeah don't judge flames off of that kill or that fight alone right don't worry i wasn't yeah no this guy is is a real talent right he's one of the reasons endpoint have been you know really rising through the ranks as of late and definitely a talent to keep your eyes on so it's got plenty more to show us than that little blunder and a force back in for liquid right fallen saving what he can he's bought utility at leads with the deag and tagging robin and all slow default for end point where they work banana yet again but taking their time as grenades could come down pre-rotate from fallen as well we've got that triple b in effect oh they're gonna do coffins nades there's no one there well it's always a cool idea just lobbing them over the top actually towards ct nath takes a bit of a beating but nothing too serious smoke's getting lined up surreal's lurking a he's not going to find much with his very passive pit side set up for liquid so endpoint all about this contact playing to be right now and even naf rotating out at the wrong time he'll double back he was ct side anyway flames not through the smoke yet but he'll catch the timing onto stewie trying to get close to it and naf goes through the smoke to no avail third player here are they ready for fallen yes they are he was really humped for the job anyway and endpoint second round taken nothing these 21a can do but save so end point in the lead like we all expected i do think this is actually a pretty interesting time for endpoint like they've been looking good coming into this group right you've gotten good mileage out of them already and uh it's very exciting to have you know like uh uk players in the fold obviously we had cloud9 as well had being the key word yeah both no longer in the pro league and no longer in cs for the time being as sad as that is to say so while while you know one door closed for this uh this combination of like uk players with uh you know in an international team another doors open for end point two and one in the lead no money for team liquid so the 3-1 score line should be a lock-in as long as grim and elijah don't get up to anything anything gross with these deagles yeah with only two pistols not really realistic should just be a third found for endpoints should be running away with things now definitely around where you can try and put those pistols into the fray elise attempts at peeking out mid but that does get denied again and the molly on short makes him choose whether to stay or go so he leaves grim still there an endpoint back to b with a triple set up for liquid once again but you're not getting worried with the usps altogether yeah this should just be a nice clean round and the excitement should start off again in the next there it is all the kills come through just the deagle armor players left standing and they're going to try to assemble the boost again oh it's spotted though and dealt with by mighty max him and flames combined to lock in the 3-1 lead so now we've got that lead built up but the reinvestments coming through and we've got the orbs in early as well love that fallen obviously glass this early in the game but crucial's got his slow and steady start for endpoint right nothing crazy apart from that one round the robin just runs up in finds the timing we've seen defaults all across the board and this round is no exception elise again pushed off of short molotov gives a lot more room to end point in the middle area they're still holding ramp at least lining up a nade of his own over the top middle gonna go over the roof liquid really just not giving anything over right a lot of respect going to endpoint and i do think that you know that well that makes sense endpoint is still in this like unpredictable situation where it's like yeah they got a great opening when they took down fnatic that was really good but fnatic you know they've had troubling times recently so where is the peak of end point where you know how many teams can they take down in the group of death liquid long did alve astralis yesterday that wasn't even an impressive game even if they did lose so and point have to work hard for this one flash dodge oh flames he back in with the kill stewie peeks in five on four for end point they've got everyone up and on about surreal still on that luck and they can just execute in fallen's gonna be late he's also gonna get smoked off and with a glass orb he might be left to save if his teammate dies yeah he's got a flashbang for naf to take a peek with right it's gonna have to be a damn good flash snap spotted there's the flashbang and him with it oh the spray is glorious three in it and suddenly the round's been stripped away from endpoint crucial and surreal left alive but with just 10 seconds and the bomb lost in b they're saving they're bowing out of this round now that was preposterous the first kill unreal is he's swinging out and then he controls the spray for three dirt that gives me flashbacks to that that round i got to cast of naf back at pro league finals season seven mirage where he swings out everything's bigger than in texas right look at this big knife coming through any naphas because dam is feeling good to be one right about now okay that's yeah that's a round out of nowhere that was one that did not look crafted for liquid with the opening kill going in the way of endpoint and a solo b hold whoa a flash had to hit and every shot followed back to banana but a lot more utility for liquid to disperse mighty max trap between flames and nades and more of that oh dear he's got to drop the smoke you always want to hold on you never want to waste it right but it's not worth if you die in it so he does get out alive with just 10 hp endpoint will think twice before going back to banana early and liquid even have the retake utility set up to get endpoint out of the car position when they gain it max going in first on low hp he's like fodder to set his teammates up for trades but they dodge again the grenades that come down over the roof and just trying to get as many grenades out of the liquid as they can right now 50 seconds still this very safe a play liquid they they've never like you know fallen for doing anything aggressive on a they're not getting caught by surreal who's really just trying to find you know gaps trying to find picks but also not offer up that that frag early and right now liquid just chilling just relaxing back in the bomb sites endpoint setting up for this be execute stewie enough here to do it all oh stewie smoked off falling bringing out with his awp in the meantime and stewie takes the fight head on him enough they spray down the b play naf not in a giving mood it's another 3k the back to back trick four now four three twice in a row and the b site is closed now fly the bouncer on the door look at him arms are crossed he's looking at your id and he's saying sorry mate got to be 21 in america don't you turning them down turning them away at the door like that good good link in and yeah this is not looking like an easy behold to get through right like she was just running through these smokes as well and ct has been doing that since a pistol and yeah the auburn fallen core surreal who had no utility to get out on that long look late oh shoot jumping oh trying to get on the wall it looked like dangerous and again endpoint you you have to respect this banana utility too much of it to tangle with it stewie gets boosted back up trying to dodge the flash and the molly comes in they're scared that it could spread so drop the boost leave stewie on the sandbags naf can line up a flash from the coffins for him seen that uh try before that was how endpoint got their opening kill into b but will this one go any better they goes deep stewie stays only one flash for naf so you've got to get it in at the right time if oh if crucial molly's a corner now stu is trapped in now he's committed to these gun fights flames again looking for this pick the flash comes in he's so white oh and he still gets the kill stewie whiffs the spray and that's an opener for endpoint yet again boosting naf up in the spawn falling with the orb wraps coffins back to the other side and well will they check for naf is the big question endpoint back to b with a vengeance yeah but these b plays one things remain consistent naf has always been good for these multi kills he's playing anti-flash right now oh nap not again down from the boost in with the double now fly just not giving you room to grow a b they're boosting him back up oh your worst nightmare it's back again naps in with four on for the ace just surreal left to get past but it's not looking surreal right now there's the peak six kills in the last two rounds and an ace in that one there stay out of b yeah b i told you it's closed naf's on the doors and he's not letting you in look we're going to get his picture again arms crossed looking stunned come on bring it up i haven't come on oh no oh wait till we get that picture wow look at the ace there it is come on hey there he is down to the left that's the picture i was on about nice all the kills now pistols out for endpoint brutal scenes for naf right now any naffers just checking i heard i heard we have a few again the util beating and bruising endpoint up banana liquid leave it as the molly comes in and so finally endpoint actually get the top of banana fairly free only flames e here no one else setting up for this mid execute four players in the choke gots reel in the apartments as well fallen on the orb in the right place have they got a smoke for him or do they want to tangle with fall and there's a good flash but he still recovers well and takes that first shot crucial gone and fallen's on one right now robin wraps spawn but naf's on rotation and he won't let you in again everywhere you go he's denying it flames he gets the bomb oh yeah it goes back for it and naf has cut off the ct rotation so it's looking like an a split and there's very little to do with it surreal just trying to find this pig that's a nice deed shot elijah's hiding though down in the graveyard killing surreal flames again follows up with the second fallen is trapped in the back of the site but he can't hit the deagle shot to end him falling with three and liquid up to five yeah now they're starting to pull ahead in a very big way and it's spearheaded by nafli and while he's getting a lot of our attention you know guys like fallen slipping under the radar where you can't let that happen he steps up in that round there with the 3k if you haven't caught many a liquid game as of late let me tell you fallen is like having a a second wind it feels like you know he really has been looking good in every one of these liquid games and it's just a treat to get to see where were you for the second coming of fallen that's what you've got to ask yourself endpoint they're in with another buy missing that awp rifles out across the board yeah choosing not to get the though in this one right they could have bought it they had the money rounds like that from fallen i would fear him to he's on a rotate as well he's going back to b i mean it's all the liquid have really seen right when it comes to those gun rounds endpoint have consistently gone into these be executed so nothing wrong with a triple stack can even swap players over if stewie wants to rotate or has a utility all posted up end point they do have banana they've been given that at least the long smoke comes out to what would be presumably cutting off fallen but this time it's a liege here and stewie and arch who's not smoked off who still has this info so no surprises that this is ending b right now liquid are expecting that as well stewie's grabbing the info by peeking mid and he's done it and lee just running a rotate and here come endpoint yeah in through the utility this time no multi kills for naf now that they've lost this reoccurring hero this guy who has so often made the difference we need someone else to step up we need someone else to fill that void a lot of damage onto flames he but not the kill four on five a lot of teams might just save here if something isn't offered up right now liquid is still hanging around hoping that they can get that kill that propels them in and here they are stewie in with a double from ct surreal and crucial suddenly throw it in to a one-on-four and it's not gonna happen grim with the trade liquid a four on five retake and they managed to keep three alive even though endpoint of playing like sounds the sound smart cs liquid are looking ferocious individually like these shots being hit by stewie and naf multi kills in so many rounds we've not even really had to see those like a anchor players like grimm in the pit hasn't really been tested yet hasn't really been tasked with the retake because it's often just been locked down in the pre-planned so yeah stewie enough looking very very good right now and that's causing problems for endpoint a sixth round for liquid building and then some another buy friend point bomb plants at least allowing reinvestment with the lost bonus crucial getting molly he can't go through it all flames he almost catches stewie on that jump he was very close so he backs up and lots of grenades landing in the banana as well don't want to hang here forever if you're liquid staying a top b is more often than not well actually it's only left to you worse for wear stewie's died both times he's played the sandbags and you've yet to really benefit from that so while it's good to keep this control early and and still trade this you tell a util out and do damage and throw the retake utility you still play it safe back in the sight nice fire shot that's dirty but that's fine because they could still have two here that's a flimsy peak for you oh but that's a stewie but that's a crucial peak oh there it is but but but stewie or maybe a stewie peak maybe no no peaks actually yeah it was just trading right you see those traces come through you're just shooting in the general direction good trade work for endpoint although it's not really down to them shooting in the general direction voting in the general election and that's what we be doing look at this endpoint group and back up at banana team brooklyn ready to move in towards this b site oh still he goes through the flash is good leaves him blind real estate gained for end point re flashes he gets himself back in there it's surreal almost called him cereal well he chows down on the round harry stewie i don't know if he flashed himself or if that was another one thrown by endpoint but he was blinded man that that could have been a follow-up kill and an escape from stewie very nice try i mean you had to make that play right because otherwise it's just a straight-up save if you wanted any chance to win the rounds do we have to equalize things and then that would have set liquid up as you can see i'm very committed in double pit to play retake it would have been a long way away though not happening endpoint finally break into the b bomb site not swayed by the many mole kills going in the way of liquid finally endpoint get themselves a fourth round and money saved for liquid they have plenty of cash reserved some dirty trading up through smokes not really the normal way that those banana fights go and then and then this one stewie's flash was cool like yeah yeah yeah you know he he flashes back in and then it's a ct pops it's it's yeah exactly right so yeah just just trading flashes and it would have been sick man if stewie wasn't caught by that late flash from end endpoint might have been a very different round well we've got this buy back in three over towards b justifiably so right endpoint of love to be bomb site and it hasn't exactly loved them back every time either oh okay this is a change should we push through flames going through the smoke and oh my goodness stewie again the same situation in a different position he whiffs it looks like he has the kill and flames he just responds with a quick slap back and takes that advantage the nade from naf has traded things into a four on four so it's not the end of the world here for liquid if anything they're favored health-wise but man series looks really good in most situations but when he is fighting flames here i don't know what's happening he's just falling short by a few shots the liege careful there's a gap there on the right and the orbs coming up crucial didn't see him i'll each get out safely might finally see an a-play here grim who's just kind of been chilling and saving and seeing nothing all game long is going to be tasked finally now rotating back he's at least going to watch for the rap fallen's telling him he's got be under control an endpoint setting up for this apps drop oh grimm's got a lot to do and he misses the smoke pole oh no the timing's not great elise with the control oh keeping it under control elise how's he still fighting he's winning with the dink crucial will trade it it's a crucial kill to get as well the molly denies the bomb plant crucial having to be a little bit wider than he would like so this gives time for the rotations and plants in 13 points of health on crucial fallen enough wrapping short side together and he's not considering it should be dead on the peak now round in the corner and there's naf with the trade a big decision for fallen enough to regroup there right if they approach that from long and short that could be an endpoint round especially considering crucified one shot left in that awp right like obviously he knew it he pulled the pistol out immediately but that could have gone very wrong as you say if there was separate fights yeah grim man he you see that from time to time right when you throw a grenade if you sweat uh swap back i'd always do that back if you swap back to a rifle by pressing one it's faster you get your gun out quicker than if you just let the animation pull your gun out for you so many players will like throw a grenade and they'll try and pull out their rifle but they actually won't let the grenade leave their hand that happens to grim and he tries to drop the smoke right as they execute thank goodness a lead just dominates right he kills everyone he thinks crucial that had to happen grimm almost lost it just from a nade pull like loads of players do that loads of players do that but that is a really bad timing for it to have happened mighty max up top b behind the wall falling with your backs up he could have wallbanged him he was already low but not the case molly at the corner just clearing sandbags going methodically as ever they could still back and still sit back with the same double set up as stewie enough want to be feared right now surreal lurking maybe he's going to come back and join his team by the looks he's already used all of his grenades and a couple of times he's tried to like lurk out and get long timings into ct fallen's been there pretty easily to deal with him there's the molly down for naf endpoint they can't commit through it they've got to wait a second but it's right after the smoke they might not even know it's in play they hold off for another second mighty max does go through the money but he's down to threes and his team are lost in the source he's got a double where has that come from endpoint they take a beating from the flames but they dish it back out and the b bomb site belongs to them and this might just be a save you know not a save you want to take if you're liquid but it's the only option you've got on the numbers alone mighty max realized he was running into naf he was stuck on him in the ct smoke and you could tell like he's trying to move and then he realizes someone's right here and then just clicks once naf is wiped out and to end point the b bomb site works again five on the board now five alive as well so money made in this round and you can see why they call mighty max you know the the the english glaive i think is his nickname from you yeah because he's smoke shot in people he's got the reeds he's putting you in the lead eventually game of 30 rounds we still got time and yeah like you said five alive money is good that's uh an important detail not just getting reset after losing uh the follow-up round if that were to happen he's open is he gonna give that back or has he yoinked it i should be a double up even yeah okay that means fallen's now freed up to just play long he doesn't have to be rotating back and forth which he's often been left to do and often in the wrong bomb site sadly so up on either side stewie be crucial flashed off flashed in rather and stewie hits a shot blinded damn just clicking on the flash finds crucial so much utility both players trying to dodge it there's almost everywhere yeah this can feel a little bit rough for endpoint now you're going to be hard-pressed to to reclaim this man advantage liquid just aren't really giving you any kind of engagement the only way you maybe could have found something is with this apartment's lurk from uh from surreal even then he's just kind of throwing in a bit of utility trying to keep bodies at the a bomb site but fallen's already feeling like something isn't right here he's called for a liege or maybe him someone to rotate they were both gonna do it and now none of them have it felt like they had to read at one point but with that smoke falling over towards arch it's it's kept them both here now they will rotate surely there we go elise is moving and that's because they have the info on mid and they don't see anyone we're just 30 seconds with utility now going into b this feels obvious that it's a b played a liquid flash is lined up from the rotating elige the rest of endpoints spilling into the site naf is good with the double and just so good at these multi kills elise decides he wants a piece of the action as well and he sprints through that smoke to put eight on the board for liquid that round kind of felt doomed from the start right that one kill that was gained from the orp of stewie was never able to be retrieved elsewhere from the endpoint side the apartment's lurk didn't find anything that round just came down to sitting at the top of b and trying to take it with four but they get melted from this triple hold it does seem like liquid are coming in pretty prepared to this game right they are not giving surreal anything on these lurks right the one round even gets a fight it's fallen there in the uh apartments and he just gets a shot off and leaves like we've seen such passive setups every round uh from liquid this is a change it's a big change as i talk about it they're triple laps but in every other round it's been like library pit side so this is going to be a surprise to end point who are not ready for such close positions taken long running and grim gets a first in apartments are they ready for fallen going back in second shot connects and the bomb is loose as well all of liquid here flames he does jump up from all and catch that kill from behind crucial trades onto a lead and now you can run back to b if you want endpoint oh claims he's trapped by the molotov so they'll call to hold off and at least taking a moment here taking a breather has forced a rotate of liquid that runs back stewie's on long grim in the pits and where would you even go here nowhere is safe nowhere is free for endpoint they've got a bit of utility to get them in two molotovs two flashes i can at least isolate grim here but see we can move off of the long side and go and assist when that is clear that's a molly that will keep his attention for a second and grim has yet to peek out wide he hasn't seen these players moving up short oh flamesy getting over before he's spotted by the pit player oh stewie tagged but not finished off is that a kill is the one who got away gonna come back to haunt em point grim is still down in the pit and he hasn't peaked this whole time so he's unaccounted for flames he trades it down to the 1v2 and through this smoke at moto stewie's taking a peek flames he lives to tell the tale he's tapped the bomb oh now he's got to stick it no choice in the matter needs the kills and while he does get the first nap wins it just by staying alive oh that's so sad on the timing right like if he if he didn't go back for the second plant he could have killed stewie and then stuck it but because he he you know initially peeked back in off of the fake and stewie just delayed it by a couple of seconds to throw in the flashbang he hears stewie running at him he knows he's dead if he doesn't get off the bomb and so he's forced to take that second fight in doing so knowing you've lost the round unless naf makes a miss play and he's too far away to do so so nt for flamesiebert timing eludes him and liquid up to nine looking for double digits and they might get there orb and two aks is the port a cool friend point far from a perfect buy fallen pushed off of the top of b only one orb here so he lost his in the last round so at least crucials armed but so is fallen waiting to receive oh fallen being here makes me nervous there he is flash they are very very deep that's not ready for that blindsided by mighty max the b site falls into endpoint hands once again fallen looking to put the br back in brexit there he is with the kill robin out of the round crucial trading one back but falling still here and still fighting fine time for liquid to get into position and denying this bomb plant for now mighty max is going to give it a go as well is he going to fare any better falling this time not able to deny it got them the first kill now he's got to do even more liquid lining up these flashes that's the uh bulk of it and crucial nails the shot on so far and the follow-up as well might not make it four why not take them all out of the round it's crucial up onto six four end points to round out that half it's pretty close liquid might be in the lead but endpoint are hot on their heels [Music] um [Music] [Music] hey future pros sometimes in cs you just want to get aggressive and take the fight straight to the enemy i'll use this mid push from astralis to demonstrate a reasonably good approach to get up in the faces of your foes on inferno it really helps if you're keeping track of the t's economy as doing this against a fully bought t side will have varying results this strategy requires three future pros two he's and an orb future pro number one you'll be the player who pushes deep into mid as you make your way to mid get your he out and lob it down mid this makes sure that if anyone does face you then they will already have taken some damage make sure to push along the right side of the wall so you don't get killed by t holding steps tuck yourself into this corner and listen for any noise or calls from your teammates when future pro 3 has made some kind of contact towards t-steps this is your cue to peek out and hopefully get a free kill after this contact keep your head on a swivel as multiple t's could be about to flood out alt mid or t steps future pro number two you will mostly be holding ultimate but first throw this he just as future pro 1 does once you have thrown your hiji it is possible for teas to be close to you already from alt mid so be ready for a fight you can cycle between holding mid and alt mid depending on how the t's are pushing be confident in your aim and quickly process any information you receive future pro number three you'll be holding t steps from the top of mid with a knob your role is to relay information to your team and act as support so your fellow future pros can't be singled out and that's it going aggressive as a ct is always a risk but if you and your legs are feeling dominant this can be a great way to control the flow of a match it could completely fail as well and if it does i don't want to hear anything in the comments get some diamond instead and keep [Music] improving [Music] don't give up don't give up [Music] i know [Music] [Music] liquid leading the way 9-6 at the end of the first half of play and we could run this back all day man i'm feeling good three rounds the difference and so a pistol round could matter a hell of a lot i'm looking at crucial i'm looking at what he's bought here he's paying homage to zip nicks from astralis with the dual beretta investment and the big question that everyone's wondering right now harry is it flames or is it flame z we don't even know flamer flame on flame off or flames yeah maybe very boisterous right now the flame dog is just chilling a banana flaming about fanning the flames we got julie's on crucial liquids show some face on a and they're looking to commit on the long side fallen running oh the usp for mighty max does some damage but fallen does make it in through ct it's a b rap flame z pushing to his death should we just catch him crucial with the grenade as well but they're not up yet they're waiting for that ct rap trapping this man in the top of banana he knows it's coming he can hear it loud and proud but julie's only good for one left right good night elite trades and now b belongs to liquid oh oh they're done through the through the wall surreal with another suddenly up through banana this retake has just spurred on with an enormous pace behind the end pointer here moving in oh leisure sees he's only good for what it seems surreal not serial because i keep trying to call him it will be the defuse for endpoint what's going on why does my mind keep going a cereal is it because this guy's a snack or is that just me oh what a what a read on the double tag into into the player behind the car wall like that's just insane i think he got the jump shot as well oh no that was max jumping okay so yeah at least some normality in the round but even so great retake from surreal and co and endpoint by their way back into a for a three on four rather force for liquid the bomb plant is temptation enough double ak oh in the fire as the name would suggest but he backs out classic flammers really i just i don't know what to call him i'm i'm so stuck you all remain nameless voldemort himself he is like our voldemort he who shall not be named he who shall not be flamed oh look at this waiting a banana liquid gonna flash themselves up robin just gets out of there setting back up for an a play right they pushed them off of banana they forced them back into the b site and now they make some noise in top mid but they don't commit this is like a nice way to just make sure that endpoint are keeping like a 3-2 set up but on the back of crucial not actually seeing anything get out middle he decides well you know what i imagine if they were coming away they'd be making a bit of effort here so he rotates to b early the timing on his rotation is big because he's already at this site as the push is coming in liquid running underneath endpoint oh two players oh they're stuck side by side now you're ready for the first you're not ready for flames who goes on a tear with the mp9 now just enough time to get it planted perhaps and yes the plant the round is still on the round is still in play naf with seconds to spare now in a 1v2 and it's endpoint on the clock the deagle gets the info gets the spot they're on the bomb they're just sticking it mighty max has got it man just on the defuse naf is hoping they give him a little fake first but they don't pros don't do that and so endpoint up onto eight yeah having to work for these rounds right be that the pistol be that against the force but now that gets a little out of control i love the double blue set up there as well flames definitely could have gone all three b jumps the corner on the last one at that point you think the round's already won it was not naff with no more than a millisecond gets the bomb plant but does not win the round and that's gonna be liquid getting a little flustered right now liege hero aka had enough back up mid doing the robin through the smoke eliech no chill could have committed only one man left on that a side it was surreal on the on the short side but they don't know that so liquid will hold off for now with a five on four they can group b if they want robin's push down alone dangerous decision he's got us re-smoke at least but they might hit a click that could be information we'll leave back up or swap sides will be the former and despite liquid getting that early picking day and not committing due to the fear of the unknown or now that fear might just be justified endpoint have put three players here and liquid still look committed yeah this could read though oh the aggression at sure at least she's in the a site and he's taking names down to the grave for four and just robin left at least you're really gonna do them like that these guys have got families he's just wrecked them robin last guy alive just holding on to the mp9 not much you can do but hide now wow the hero ak in both cases of it being used wins the round for well endpoint in the first half and liquid now what a play from a lead and the re-aggression damn if endpoint just held off a few more seconds liquid would have walked right into that full stack and maybe would have gone it would have gone a lot better for endpoint instead liquid the early buys finally net them something and they break the money of endpoint here in the first half on that ct side where it's already rough enough to buy up what a mow down for a liege and yeah the consequence of that is is the buy that we see now it's like mp9's got a hero oh not a hero but a single m4 on max and liquid pumped and ready to go grim four and nine but as said like he didn't really get a lot of fights in that first half just down to his position so a lot of b plays for endpoint up and on it not really enough utility to battle this on the ct side rob again mollied gonna jump up over the sandbags great grenades to a lot of damage oh see robin's moved around we've got him now in this a bomb site and flames is even moving over as well it's a real down in the pit liquid looking to get out into top middle they leave banana in its entirety oh do they go back no they don't have that banana control so now they are kind of committed to this a play utility reigns over robin might have rotated round and he is here in this a side but we need a batman to show up right we need someone to be the hero and it's not batman right now oh there's a couple of kills robin still fighting still going the main protagonist in this storyline oh no it's only him left and there he is we needed a batman but we got a bateman man instead because it's american psychos in the server hugo 11-8 team liquid nice in with another yeah and now now the holes getting dug right endpoint are gonna get delayed in their gun rounds for some time more pistols more deagles more utility but no more rounds as liquid are not letting them back in off the back of that hero aka they're running wild very close but not gonna cut it stewie just straight up into logs every round you often see like that get double needed after the molly comes down obviously the util hasn't really been there yet in the city side but when it is stewie might get punished for this position or even now there it is there's one but it goes a bit deeper and so stewie is absolutely fine oh the flash is good stewie [Laughter] oh sound bad harry no man of course course he lands that they really gonna do flames like that flamesy i don't know liquid going back into a b play endpoint quaking in their boots they've got two players here right now we need something big out of mighty maxim robin oh and they know the early bird gets the worm so they rotate in looking to break this one fast it's cereal getting boosted up i've been actually gonna throw him up there here it comes the play getting dealt the stack here and liquid have navigated it well to begin they even spam the boost they didn't commit to it and so robin's allowed to stay alive but now they're closing in on mighty max they're getting ever closer and so it is just robin left a 1v3 required the deagle his only friend and grim gonna separate the two of them puts team liquid well into the lead end point money still in a rough spot after that round with the pistols and armor they might just have to come in with another partial yeah it did feel like they were putting a lot in that one but it felt like a double equal anyway so after a force and even less money here one more breather liquid just given a a huge way back into this map right now like yeah they just bought too much on the previous eco too is this like the third round with like pistols it feels like obviously they had a little bit more in in the first of three with one rifle smg's but even so liquid just given all the room in the world to get their t-side underway and we're not going to see the first orb in the city side until you know round 22 that very much is late smoke's down on long mighty max car uh cut off by them two on the short side legion's trying to battle with them the apps player could find a good timing well they're looking at sure but they they do divert their attention crucial catches naf in apps and that's a gun if you can cross now and go and pick it up that could be massive they've not got a lot to play with in this one robin through the smoke dead mighty max giving it a go he hears him running away but fallen hangs out and still gets another oh they fake the retreat and they get fed in middle that's perfect for liquid they run back but two players standing still waiting for the re-aggression and they get gifted kills so double eco done after the force here's the buy and it's got to be everything for endpoint because otherwise liquid are closing this out quick yeah that's the scary part right about having to wait so long for this investment it's like now you've finally got it and you better do something with it or else this entire map could get taken away from you it's endpoints matt pick in this series so we're hoping that this round they can deliver up in the hands of crucial he's taking it for a mid peak looking for this fight isn't giving it though molotov's exchange down banana stewie pushing up looking to get stuck in while the rest of team liquid is still holding bottom banana and the uh and the apartments just spreading out taking this default again endpoint though might look to throw a bit of a spanner in the works with an aggro flash into banana oh stewie's spraying so blinded and somehow out of all of that liquids still win the battles they come out on top there's a third player here on b so it's not lost just yet mighty max has no more utility to hold on to this position she's playing it from ct hoping they don't smoke it off instead get that wall smoke in and fight towards it but that's unlikely liquid are holding on for a few more seconds waiting for re-aggression is a liege looking away for a flash and actually you know liquid they could have just gone in it was one man now it's soon to be two with the orb running over on crucial and liquid now grouped up looking like they're gonna commit 30 seconds to do it and two players here are they gonna boost up they're still both spawn side i mean they're going to have to boost if they want to get this one back under wraps instead crucial tries to walk the smoke mighty max now could do the same hit him we're all good they have no idea they don't know about him yeah i don't know about him right now lies ruining the fun ruining the party surrealist to save and it's 14 on the board for liquid he's moving in like he wants to give it a go yeah don't want to give this a go it sucks right because you know realistically it's not uh not a winnable position but at the same time you're running out of rounds you're running out of chances to even make this map winnable now and liquid have picked up a lot of steam 14 found and broke our end point what are you going to do play for overtime at 14 8 you've got to win seven in a row or do you force and try and keep yourself in this round this one rifle it doesn't matter what decision you make there is no right call it's just down to you know how you want to play the round but it's a really rough situation to be in to have to make that decision and yeah i wonder about a double cc setup maybe they just weren't convinced by the the b play was coming in and they wanted to you know swing out through the smoke if it did and if it didn't then they have faster rotates but having no one inside of the sight there kind of leaves them worse for wear and crucial gets caught as the smoke blooms as well imax tries to stop the plant but the cover is there for liquid and 14 to eight is the half bite probably the best call you can make in this position but not with a lot to do just digs all that jump up doesn't get spotted but surreal's up above and fall and we'll deal with him my goodness very fast mid picks the ace free in an instant oh yeah falling really been a treat to to get to watch him over the the last few events right like we've seen him getting stronger we've seen him looking more like his old self such an exciting prospect man like he's just been so influential with like the openers he's able to provide with this orb and this is all oh my word fallen flicks down of flames or flame z rather and liquid are up to 15 map point on end points map pick so it's one final go at it for endpoint one last buy to begin this long old road to the comeback yeah at least they got everything they need right like we talked about how that one rifle round that they had in round 22 was so delayed due to the forces and liquid winning and eco and everything that came along with that oh miss shot very close for crucial but close won't cut it up against that point very nice does hit the tag but he's also low as well the nade will finish the job so there's a combo from endpoint to give them a man advantage and they've laid up a flash to set another man back in robin is ready the liquid are not interested they double back leaving stewie still in banana the bomb goes towards middle flash comes in an info there for end point she was going to try and trap robin in with that deep molotov but he is not worried holds on to the top of banana meanwhile liquid taking middle long smoke down so mighty max doesn't have that info she still selling this b play nate goes out but they're already up and passed it fallen will eat some damage elise is crept in now for the pick finding the op of crucial and now it's down to the pit player that's being isolated trying to find him everyone's blind everyone's smoked surreal does manage to get one and just staying alive here is worth its weight in gold mighty max doesn't know about stewie but it's about to get figured out robin finds that girl finds death and the trade is in luckily those long players were in mid in time nothing fallen in this game and taking heads off on a swivel mighty max 1v1 versus fallen and fallen's fighting burning in the molotov down a three hp oh he's trying to conceal himself but mighty max is there to keep the dream alive nine on the board for endpoint fallen so eager to fight he burns for like 90 in the molotov so it's kept them in it it's kept endpoint going mighty max with a big closer to get a ninth round past team liquid yeah fallen just i mean he's feeling it sure but i don't think he knows the molly spread right there doesn't doesn't see how far it's going getting on the box is a near-death sentence hey better than dying to the molly but max holds his own and to his defense there was like no fire on the bombs right molly's are just very interested i'm not you know i can't no one's defending molotov no one's out here yeah that's uh unfortunate and and good to see max just not like fluster or anything he knows fallen's trapped behind that box he just holds until fallen eventually makes a play he's not going to sit there crouched down forever and so endpoint above water staying in this map their pick as well keeping it competitive fallen lining up a flash for stewie in the bee banana but it goes both ways endpoint are going to pop one as well flames he clears it nothing there that soon to change oh yeah the horrible thing for endpoint is like even though they won that round because it comes down to just my max surviving look at the buy to try and begin this comeback try and begin this streak you've got an orp that's good you've got the m4 that's good the rest of it a little ugly so we're looking at these two players in mighty maxing crucial and we're thinking they've got to deliver they're calling for a rotation back from b that's mighty max beginning his rotate round now wrapping long our team liquid a moto smoke drop they're gonna have to go through this but crucial is giving them some room trying to take some back as well in the orb oh he's getting closer full and no scoped out of the round and crucial might have delivered here out on the balcony he spots another and shuts it down crucial so many kills from that awp we needed it to deliver and it will grim gets the bomb planted but that's the end of the line for old grimothy and the defuse is in for end point double digits secured and this time two players living and they're feeling a lot better about this next purchase yeah i'm very impressed that they're still in this one right with the economical woes with the way some of these rounds have turned out felt like liquid we're just ready to close but now they really have to work for it right like the money's getting good for endpoint even though they're losing a lot of players they're winning the rounds they're staying in this and liquid soon will be at the front of an eco at that point like in you know three or so rounds assuming we get there it will be right at the end that liquids money will start to break away so this could certainly be still winnable in ot round by round so we have to take it or back on the a site crucial playing short uh resmoke bit of a gap you could say yeah just a small one but the molly still does its job it still keeps them out for now that being said you know employment might not know that liquid are already up and they remolly it anyway they might even re-flash back in but they actually don't have one towards b one smoke is all they have left on this site and liquid could just go in hard there's a wall smoke to fight ct to flight flame z robin catches one before it blooms and backs up into the smoke flames dropping the bomb at least trades it robin jumps up he's eager to fight and it will let him down as fallen gets the tray but the bomb is so far away and the bomb is just picked back up and waltzed into the site by liquid he just runs in and gets it out of ct knowing that they're going to give him respect that's ballsy as hell and now it's given a bomb plant over fallen and now the same two from last time in this clutch gonna give it a go again fallen looking into the ruins gets removed now just enough and it's only one for him surreal with the uh with the closers coming in clutch it's another two players surviving once more 11 to 15 building back into this game now four away from an overtime at the very very least money is not going to be a problem for liquid but they've called a timeout they can feel this game getting scarier than they want it to yeah it's not a free and easy win it's just yeah and you know when you're when you're pulling a game back like this especially when you know employee had to make that decision to give away 15 just to buy up fully it was worthwhile that much is clear but at the same time they're getting more pumped up uh with every round that passes with every step closer liquid not out of the woods yet all right and point you've got our attention got our attention next up is the respect and then the admiration and that happens when they complete this comeback crucial donning this orb been a bit of a difference maker at times he's over towards the long side and there are players taking the apartments looking for some semblance of a control for liquid early on these being one of them after the other pretty terrifying twosome to go up against in the apartments crucial smoked off in mid that nade can find a little bit of damage onto grim but that's really the extent of this exchange and even though they get all this top mid control you've still got stuart 2k holding on to banana right not letting up on this side of the map even throwing in some utility right now to try and give the illusion that this is a b play with a long smoke down where it is right now liquid could even look to split ct into b it would be ballsy but we've seen them do it before crucial holding it with the orp right now has to be a liege in the heads ahead and there he is shot misses they learn about this orb they fall back from long rotations have been called endpoint of full full sentence rotate four players around a fifth man was even moving over as well we'll go back to b eventually stewie's left banana so at this point liquid are going eight it's just a very very labored slow a take an endpoint have got four here they're about to strike one off the tally stewie dead back from banana and into the orp now the a play on the cards grim with the opener surreal gonna trade it out and crucial still here putting up numbers on this orb surreal not giving up the pit not letting a liege navigate this 1v3 not today an endpoint are up on a 12 building and building still towards this re towards this comeback rather not retake they just they just did that before it even became one yeah we see some banging shots out of crucial in that awp as well right may miss the first one but doesn't lose the confidence to re-aggress and and catch stewie catch that first kill which gives time for endpoint to rotate early as well right like they almost like you said they're almost fully centered if anything doing it would have been the right call but you don't want to completely throw all your bodies into that a site and then get faked on pressure mounting also for liquid right now and the grenades are insane look at the damage done stewie on three grim 21 brutal scenes and now regardless of what you want to do in this round right you've got to play around the fact that two of your players are so low you've got to send them in like first and uh and play off those trades a legend also eating grenades it's not getting any easier for liquid flames getting flashed back in molotov lands on the sandbags he sees nothing they're just setting up to take top b but they are some time away from that crucial looking for the long lug and he hits the flick elijah's dead and now with that he's going to run b as well reinforce that bomb site stack it up as liquid set up in the banana looked ready to go but losing their long player that's thrown a bit of disarray into this round a bit of doubt maybe robin boosted up and here come liquid eventually and here come liquid after the flash and now they're in here we go boys right on cue stewie with the opener flames he's still alive and still causing problems naf comes in with the trade once again it's naf and fallen trying to navigate another 2vx this time a 2v3 temporarily robin's here alone now tries to take advantage of that but ends up leaving it all on the back of fallen the taps oh what a way to lock it in team liquid on the back of fallen look at the smiles look at him go fallen's back baby and better than ever
