Spirit vs NAVI BO5 Grand Final (Official) - BLAST Premier Spring Final 2024 Presented by Revolut

you light this fire you set this stage of blaz Cav long gone Copenhagen no more this is London yes it is an ancient will begin it the best of five grand final both teams everything to prove and a last chance before he put a stamp on this season and go to a break Spirit have been waiting since cat na'vi since Copenhagen and Alexi wants a single map in a best of five grand final bit given a little space I think that's a teammate shot to the back of the head not we don't want nerves now oh wonderful from the pocket two nice ones but they still take cave from him but those CTS who came in from middle now starting to scour down the ramp it's a push through smoke a little dangerous from Magic but ooh does it ever pay off o Lexi there's the bomb Alexi executed he drops it in the mud with man advantage and then also deploys the smoke I like that keep anybody who could have gone Donut from getting over here Sonics turns around not emphasizing the bomb pickup but rather holding flank great read from ztics to keep this cool calm collected as he fires through now it's all Alexi he goes through they don't even have to think about the devil on their shoulder taunting them telling them that oh not a good start these are signs of a bad pass instead they can say oh we got momentum it's our old selves now be have to stop that Molly smokes all over now there's always a question as to what kind of tempo Don's going to set out of the spawn whether that's in a map or in around and speak of the devil Don in deep smoke grenade comes out from cave in the pistol they were able to swarm this player for now Alexi Dives behind box meanwhile ztics goes deep and surprise surprise bit caught out in the Smoke great grenade usage all this time Alexi he still hasn't been given a fight talk about patience from Magic's wonderful starting to take a look over on a he could just run into Chopper I love this lurk already trying to get ahead of any save do goes into the cave and deletes and so far this is Spirit looking Untouchable yeah it's actually critical that they go for these exit frags as well just make sure that Spirit can't think about the next round have any strong game plan they've got to be worried about try to get them in that buy save byy save Rhythm imma two kills in the exit going to be a trying time if he's going to stay alive and he can't take over ztics zanix again he manned up big time yesterday want to give him massive credit because I think he was criticized you know at Copenhagen for being one of the players who most visibly nervous and at his age and for the little bit of experience that he's had that's okay you know and it's and it makes sense that you can be ashamed to admit that you're nervous of course but clearly he's done some thinking hi has definitely had an impact on the psychology of this team the matches that we've seen so far it doesn't feel like that's a back at it another mid hit Don not going to go down empty-handed this time it's it's copy and paste why not in repeat it worked well without the entry in mid one round to go it works just as well until JL love it interrupts the smoke that temporary cover for magic betrays him are they going to dive this man out now they're starting to Fight Fire with Fire two players botom middle to deal with donk JL interrupting smokes this isn't just setting up a retake where you get utility off your sight but now we're s setting up the mid round this is where we saw previously ztics find a very key kill they'll make a connection now yeah but Wonderful's got this angle Mohan but no one coming in from donut no one from aain for the time being in a smoke on CT means do they get the plant ooh does he dive this he's got the flash he's going to die with the op onto the sight countered by Shiro they were waiting for it oh he is that stable pillar they rely on they were frothing at the mouth man they wanted in because that was the nature of the rest of the round that's what got JL into Magics that's what got the donut fight in position Alexi tries to play with a faster Tempo and now it is him that has the clutch and timing's great he sees the B but can't finish the kill ready for that bomb to go down they missed it shirou knew they were going to come through he's going to run around a big risk to take because you lose all your players trying backto back conditioning rounds into that a hit montic sniffs it out a third time but the rest of this pack for Spirit has other plans I don't feel like na'vi are falling for the possibility of it coming out a third in a row no way Alexi takes responsibility of cave he's got two players dead e b behind him trying to muster together some kind of an opening frag but doesn't also want to die so understand he runs from risks the timing on the Molly is perfect cuz they know he has to reload so he can't play on the left side and wait well then foregoing the front room but not giving up on B in fact getting a little ansy we saw them try to fight fire with fire one round prior now they'll go for it again Chopper on Chopper or oper yeah he can do it all jl's in the corner but while jl's down on ramp magic starts to come through cave shirou very important trade and then JL is able to turn the tide back into the hands of na'vi swapped out the gun everybody fighting on an aisle Shiro's in the middle of them all and this support has worked its way over he's just going to go for bomb plant Chopper is completely out of this I mean it's shirro or it's the CTS it's as simple as that he has already given up on holding off this diffuse choer will Sprint to the backline wonderful is going to stick this it's 10 seconds all the way nothing he can do nice nice That's na'vi back in the round back in the game that move from JL instead of going to Banana disrespecting the smoke straight through it into the off boost shirou looking for an opening but Wonderful's on him and they hit each other but wonderful Nails the kill good recovery out of Magic's fast Alexi just trying to keep up this Tempo again they get into the thick of it again the trades come out and just when you think things could come to a pause a slight slight crawl through smoke bit he not done three kills out of the Young Gun wonderful started it with the a duel but now he has to end it with the clutch oh my God oh my God hold on the timing is insane but you know what this is this is Chopper's audible eyes on the radar they're sending him back wonderful we've seen amazing clutches out of him but right now he doesn't know that he's being tracked oh man Chopper a little delayed getting out of the house this morning misses the Train on the crossroads we see Wonderful's you know he's just found himself a place to save sort of inadvertently coming into the a site wondering how they knew but of course ran right by Chopper Chopper was was in a unlikely spot and this is uh spirit right back to another dominant round and and a big one from Don his biggest multi-kill of the game so far yeah no I mean I was doing a watch party when C happened and I had to keep telling people that we're watching like this is something we've never seen before he was spawning into maps versus FaZe versus everybody with 15 kills in the first four or five rounds it was truly Phenom Z existing is something that we thought could never be Ted so don is is looking to make that his his duty to go above the bar that zyu has set which is insanely High rookie number one this approach from Spirit has been so multifaceted they've had intended Targets on both half of the map it's just that they have this the proclivity to go a is something that Spirit has shown us has worked versus verus Pro who are playing open a sights y and the fact that they can condition you in believing they might just take it two rounds straight means that na'vi cannot over fortify other parts of the map oh deep position down the B ramp though that's the thing JL tucks back into that very critical Corner he's had in the past and because you have forward presence on middle as well and wonderful you'd think you could go a little heavier on a maybe they don't think they need it just yet wow they they approach that so carefully as the ramp smoke Fades it's actually JL to double back so now Alexi takes up the mantle you still have wonderful operating out here on his he he's tunneled in right because he just wants to hold on to Mid but you know what look at the map look at the map right now right here and hold Molly goes over top doesn't disrupt it oh F by him go ahead attempt the approach all the while EMS sits patiently back sight but oh he drops the ball do comes through no flick shot from wonderful oh and as soon as he crosses Temple yet again they get in whether they win mid or not go so deep almost finding one inside of Spawn it is only magic who's been able to keep it up because Wonderful's doing it all and as he gets back around the corner of the donut the fourth and fifth could still be his but bits been spotted the N catches the oh how many rounds zero take back another and it's the scaling once again that's working out very well for spirit so awesome to see what Shiro can bring to the late rounds for team spirit always alive always able fast one this time Alexi gets swarmed all right magic you said talk about me a little bit quietly climbing the scoreboard eight kills deep as magic he'd had a rough month alongside Spirit struggles was kind of down there alongside Chopper you don't expect him to be at the top but you'd hope he'd be higher up and we've seen a turnaround since right I think Magic's form is returning back to the better times that we were remember of him when he was a bit more of a carry right to the previous Spirit major run shirro settled down now but dude no saves allowed in London for with his calls damn right and again single digit losses in the last four Maps as well for U na'vi versus Spirit Don loses so much health trying to get himself up the ramp what can he do with 40 well better 20 same that I could do on 200 he hasn't dived it yet but let your guard down for a second and Don will come swinging this is a a forced position right it's the last round of the half and look at the buy that comes in they wouldn't normally have invested in this think about the rounds where CTS are able to hold B it's when jl's down ramp it's when they're kind of out of this bomb site it's when they get turtled up like this things go south for na'vi it's a pretty simple call for Spirit right you play the clock you play anti EO on this and they wait to see their push that push may be about to come it's just the MP9 there's a flash in hand but nope Alexi nothing JL nothing both your cave players fall all the pressure now onto the sole M4 left 3v5 is not where na'vi want to end the half but hey if you got to you will em cautious about the ramp Peak but does he anticipate somebody this far up awesome stuff from EMA when a bomb sight's about to fall but shirou and ztics in another 2vx another late round where they can just head on over to the other side of the map with a smoke on the CT Lane no way ztics Dives this and it works what wonderful cotton transition bits going to come through with the flank and he's not going to waste any time he doesn't expect it Shiro does it again the settle in cuz we've got a best of five ahead yeah yeah keep the energy alive and get ready because there may be a comeback or two in this series you never know the pressure only mounts the closer you get to the finish line and obviously na'vi could not be farther away plenty of time for na'vi to turn around and give us like an Anubis performance from yesterday definitely that's the beauty of the bo5 I mean what Spirit did to them in this first half was exactly what they did to vertis Bro yesterday of course you could argue that this competition is a different level up in terms of you know the mental Obstacle of knowing they've lost to them recently sprinkle in though all those 2vx situations that had as well oh those mid rounds were fantastic I mean that has me so confident that they're they're just not going to get nervous in this game they've they pulled off from rounds especially with ztics who again you just can't give this kid enough credit for what he just showed us he took rounds into his own hands he found the gaps on a he stopped the mid rotations he saved the pistol round I mean Don has that was a reference half for ztics but he also has his eight deaths there was a couple mid rounds where Don is the first death and zonx just picks up that slack so consistently we talk about him right he's kind of living in the Shadows of donk coming in at the same time but he's the shade that'll pull you down to the depths they going of come through this trying to yeah they are they'll jump out and Shiro not sure which way to look so it's a clean looking split that comes up to frags Nai Chopper overwhelmed alongside the Berettas there is a decent amount of damage done here so curled up man he's looking to shred flesh from bone magix he gets two and with ztics next to him he takes back another this is another 2vx oh Alex is in the corner and he's keeping it cool Dives to the right side CT on the sight Alexi take your time Magic's will do the same you don't know when he will swing but what Alexi may not know is there is indeed a kit first ones a fake second also a flub that as Alexi thinks he has to roll straight up in your face that's he's got the word let's [ __ ] go Bo come on come on doesn't matter the far a [ __ ] game guys 0 0 we pistol and then it's going to be what 110 for us 110 for us they sound calm they believe it all right man be is on that I can ride the vibe with him they come out swinging into the round cost them a lot of health so if you win the round and it doesn't look like that on a clutch you don't have conversations like that of course not thing is you come swinging into the next round with that mentality let's slam him and now you've got three players on shaky amounts of HP even more so now that Alexi is on a quarter good for the lane players though mid pressure taken off right bit comes in alleviates the issue you still got JL leaning back on a full bar and you've got na'vi nicely grouped up but the scary thing with that is one lone MP9 spray down could just drop multiple bodies so I anticipate na'vi to split frag comes in that'll make their jobs a little easier another n but it's not death yet for Chopper yeah I mean there's guys on both sides of the entrance way right now I don't know if they're God this Crossfire could be huge he swings and there's Shiro the other MP9 second and we talked about the health this is the one V4 from shirou oh look how fast he went he cuts noise does he clear close cuz there's a player deep but there's also one by door and there it is under dong showing us that it's possible then you don't deserve to win because you need to get a trade if you've got two guys right who are coming in a position where they know where he is you have to get Al yeah this is a point and click adventure at the end of the day Don just got the best Mouse feels like he's got the space so again he'll press up and that's always the looming threat as well for this climb up for the lane fight ztics will hold your elbow it's just this deep Corner which is occupied oh dog just the one almost snaps it down to JL then that opens the door for Ean who instead of getting countered by ztics or donk is able to get out this time so na'vi man Advantage trying to flex it along the cave JL just with a little timing and he does it on his own a great chance for na'vi to recover but shirro mid round these have been the bane of na'vi yeah and this is one of his key spots he's been playing this place in donut with an OP ever since Gambit you know all the way back in the day so at this point you can call it back in the day but one round prior one round to go we get those Miss shots yes the door left open this round though they they need donut because they don't have a smoke to work with shirro will get action in just a few moments yeah but does he anticipate which side right that could be the problem yeah you want to hold on to the sight but oh the timing he missed it oh oh he doesn't know and there e finds it chiro not secure unsure uncertain and so the slow squeeze from na'vi finally gets shirou out of the late round finally gets them back immediately right that oneof from Team Spirits 11 but this is na'vi at the halfway point to 12 yes and that's uh imemo with another awesome round that shows us that he can do what zonx had offered up for spirit and ZX is still ahead in terms of how many times he's done it but the quality of kills here is extremely high for Emma off the off the mid playay that sort of fails for a second when Don gets his first kill get the trade back imma slides out with a flash on the immediate timing Tak takes out mid and they regain control the entire round he's getting his hard kills that's the important part what a low squeeze not terrible that he loses that spot not one miss shot Mo from wonderful yeah he he's still um he still got their attention so six out of last seven rounds here for na'vi they come back in what once felt impossible now getting ever closer four rounds the difference and lesser money here for Spirit but again man this is a couple rounds now where okay not the rifle round maybe we don't dive too much into it but middle starting to be a piece for na'vi right that b squeeze made possible by an early EMA Red Room Peak yeah they took it B to Mid with their cap smoke really fast it worked out we didn't have Spirit tried to really fight into that previously besides the Run round AG go where Don jumped up got his one kill got traded back so it's obviously such a key part of the map for the TS side if they can win mid they can win rounds little present spotted up in donut 5 s's getting ready to swing ooh he's trying to uncan them oh god oh no oh hold on wait the bomb has to be going the other way and hold on things get frantic pits trying to work on his own look at all the pistols they're coming back they want this fight they try to take it he takes them instead that's the tip of the drill for na'vi that's bit three up and he says come fight me I'm sending the bomb the other way high I just want you dead he perforates the bomb site they wanted to swarm they thought that would sting [Applause] but it's all too easy for bit the head shot [Applause] machine bit on the chase to try to deny it and I mean that's even a moment where na'vi are super cautious on their approach they just wanted to get that can of worms to come running out of donut but yeah they got a little caught off guard right there off more than they could chew so Spirit have uh got the hard route but it's it's not because it's been easy rounds not have been making Miss but that was a great move from Alexa he's only got eight kills but he has a clutch and he has this where he drew Chopper away her the reload and then came and took position another save na'vi boiling over with the confidence that's come by winning seven of the last eight rounds this tside has done wonders but last time they approach things went sou they got to be careful kill no not now it's Chopper through smoke this is for map point it was always going to be a long road but to trip over your own two feet with alxi B on the team kill JL comes through smoke and falls and Spirits 12 still overtime if we get there that Nai momentum will they let go of their grasp after a hurdle that hurts in mid fight on Elbow that gets em back on half Health they fight a little differently here o Alexi queuing himself up but at the moment the te's are a little stringy there's a bit of Disconnect re aggression mhm they're going to try to move this forward Don on the head shot angle Don and ztics are the reason they won that last round they kicked it off and now Alexi executes the player at the bottom of mid dog is between the two can he recover he turns it up at Alexi tries to creep back to join his forces into what could very well be oh letting him go is that the right play it's a sight that they have hit hard and it's a sight that they have taken over but it's not one that they want just yet minute on the clock this is when everybody's sweating this is the most tense moment this could be either team and na'vi are trying to take advantage of that they have the fog of War right now we don't know what site it's going to be double Molotov the passive defense hasn't always been the best for Spirit they need everything and more man they've got the util for the exac and it doesn't look like Spirit are going to try to interrupt it they sit back on their Laurels they double up on this box they've got to hold this line and the Molly forces them into this fight for magic he holds a little longer which means DA's in position and he's got a back turned man Advantage here for Spirit but the sight belongs to Nai or at least so it did bit has to go big his back is he's down he's done and spirit clows on [Applause] Ancient to show us that he can win a map in a best of five grand finals so if you will London show him you believe got to believe from the system top to bottom every single piece blade behind them Alli on the other side and what I love about map one is that we don't just get this total donk blowout we get two teams firing up with a real chance to keep the Counterstrike he just started laughing but it's like it was set on the desk right Don inside a middle that's what we're going to be watching for how dare you Peak me in my doors Magic's had a great map in fact finishes with the second highest rating 17 kills across ancient and if those pillars of team spirit are strong man it's going to be a tough order for na'vi they do find the flank yeah and then getting that flank obviously opens up both sides of the map they're still a minute up they can make a decision slowly if they want to ztics want to go over to Hummer now forced to fight and comes away with one that stands out he knows what he was signing up for but did he just sign their death certificate in this pistol cuz JL hears The Stomping of shirou in Middle surely shirou in a late round can't pull this off again he sat outside windows wonderful activates but he jumps the gun and he misses Andi tries to fight shirou gets another it's wonderful versus shirou neither with their trusty op 30 seconds to the clock and bomb at the feet of Shiro but through the smoke wonderful goes we're just beginning here on Dust two Reby comes in but the difference is now spirits almost everything they have copper with just an extra 1400 bucks oh he might die in that Molly yeah it's a trade from the grave it's enough damage still a decent position right to get that kill early on also kind of keeps the p and Don step takes the action early JL sorry buddy you were locked in in this position if they saw him cross obviously in Jeopardy of of getting Molly out we've seen Spirit use this exact setup over r b that Alexi has some other ideas tough spot with the shadow flash is perfect and surely he gets hunted down yeah they had every protocol in place ztics tucks head behind boxes but he was seen on the crossover so the layers here work out for the traits Chopper gives himself a smoke beautiful shot but okay JL will come out one frag into the 1v3 but the bomb belongs to spirit yet again so many of these moments it's been tough but does he catch them off guard he goes underneath it's a wild spray that just gives shirou a Target to hone in on 20 seconds not happening here versus Spirit no not at all and we questioned it yesterday we said what if a game doesn't start off well what if the rounds are tougher to come by will na'vi keep that up I was more worried about that happening to Spirit for their sake because you know and we'll we'll see if they if they do have a bad start in this best of five if they have struggles or or or crumble but this is what they're used to they're used to starting up 40 50 they gave themselves room for a comeback to try to take place back on Ancient and even though na'vi did something really cool for you know the better part of that second half they still didn't get more rounds than they did last time they have not broke new ground here versus Spirit where they are down for map straight JL love the lurk into the corner over the smoke just by a smidgen he catches the head shot so rifle starting well here for na'vi little test for catwalk again and with the success they found on cat with pistols EMA is going to be just chomping at the bits to get a chance over to Don on ramp who just tucks himself back behind fire he gives up half his health by crawling back being careful so that he can take this duel on his terms he fires back towards the off but it's the player that drops down that gets him off guard so 3v3 with magic beautiful head shot at this distance bits up oh he's ready for it magic locks down long but wonderful play oh nice adamant about long control thus far on this CT side I mean Spirit on fire out of the gate Magic's five kills all impactful all over on one portion of the map you got shirro in these late rounds doing his job ztics is utility supportive as ever and Don riing heads off clean so this time it is guns but oh boy yeah this is another key play that they do love it Don plays behind the pole he's got shirro to work with he's fully blind the oper missed the shot Shiro's wow Alexi B Double Entry they came out ready for that pre- flash to top mid looks like they're knocking on their first round win they try to clear the corner ztics able to hang on but now he's going to have to desperately reload as he Dives back car he gets away with timing he at B this just like that he takes back what Alexi works so hard for we're talking about bits slur though mhm deep inside the a site the bong gets cut off bom control again Alexi's down to nine it is all Alexi thus far for this round but remember ztics gets active and also bit can get involved there are lurks on both ends and the bomb still yet to be retrieved Magic's losing almost all that HP Sonic stoic snaps up this is his chance Alexi B sees all with nine Health nine Health he's got he's got to run from oh the N misses the misses Alexi B and with that on the board I got to say though I'm still very impressed with what we're seeing from ztics Maps 1 to two that was a pretty much done position with no rotations inside a middle solo B site oh man out fast oh but look at this look at the setup here for the CT side Don comes back he never sees it oh he still reacts of course he does and you're not just besting some chump that's bit dead surely this doesn't take another Alexi Ace this looks scary though right as they it's it's it's you know recing mid is it takes time it takes resources and it's a risk so right now they know Spirit are totally blind and they're starting to organize wide swing looking for the head shot player keeps himself tucked in Magic's dude rock wall yeah now it's a little scary to go up the cat but they can plant for it JL will catch this Chopper sitting over on the pistol open this door is one thing wonderful decides not to go for the plant instead he swings out and catches Chopper so cautious about that flank ztics has to keep his head in this direction the bomb actually starts to leave hold on hold on what is going on wait wait a second yeah he's these moves he's going to come wide but jl's got this locked in two critical kills from JL to reopen the possibility of heading into B well calculated well timed and works and it had to be that instant head shot nicely done looking like it should be two rounds in a row now as magic makes this extremely long path around in through playground this was an interesting moment because they could have even killed I mean obviously if it was anybody else Don would have died I would like to see if Shiro's shot was hard or not because he came right no right there to kill JL inside a middle right on his rotation he probably got startled right of course but when we comparing the two opers at the moment like Shiro's had big moments wonderful had big moments but Wonderful's definitely miss less I want to say I'd agree at least when it comes to you know the the stability shots the ones that he's supposed to hit but for the story of the series glad to see na'vi pick up back to back rounds sort of egg on their face when they lose to an antio and then lose the match right after that you know Alexi Ace to kick off a two- round streak that's now got a real Edge magix having saved that AK throws it on over to Don so let's see what Don can do solo AK hero [Music] mode is there anybody else you'd rather have in that kind of a position no I think it's great also that na'vi had like shut them down as out of Middle with like Shiro Don into the top of mid like huge confidence play to take out of the repertoire so now it's a way more classic position but it's around where Don is the only gun here and na'vi have to be extra careful in these kinds of rounds if we go back to ancient they want get embarrassed you know exactly if it wasn't bit to bail them out they would have lost two of these that embarrassment doesn't look good on na'vi so make sure that it doesn't happen again here in map two your chance your momentum much earlier on here in the second map of which of course is their pick but still you've got to play with confidence mhm they need to pick a sight they've been cautious enough so far they hit the 45 second Mark and jl's had enough of this waiting game so they found an open house yep starts to move it over and that one solo AK will do nothing this round at least not enough to stop bomb plant bit trying to find timing top mid good to go there's an important move here for na'vi just to make sure that they move with everybody a round of applause for a struggling eme does it count if it's against the pistol it really does actually yeah it really does oh there we go two two will at least be one oh snap back to reality donk if he was in the right position oh my God wait a second no no no wait a second they're actually running for for this bomb he's got it covered he goes down and now Magic's no kit oh holy smokes man I felt this whole room pucker his first bullet accuracy from that distance I just can't even understand it like even the AK is just not that reliable it's so crazy how we find those frags see but isn't that one for Generations especially if it had transitioned into a defuse back to the buy spirit that five round streak at a start ooh EMA difficult jump but he's gotten out to Blue Box where we have a round where magix isn't deep inside of the actual pit he's got flashes to support him they're looking a little discombobulated there a little bit of a gap between smokes but this is the teas to keep up pressure so magix hears the Rumblings of it doesn't want to stick around and they don't go for the recl even though obviously they wanted the fight just for a second you can respect them taking long if you want but it's a thorn in your side you know that they stay here sometimes you can take long control peel back with everyone go for a cat split if you want to or take full long as well this is dust two it can be long Centric at times so they'll go for the crawl up keep it going total forfeiture of the bomb site there is not one person in it so there's definitely enough utility for a retake if you're Spirit you've got two nades the molly the smoke you'd be good to go shirro oh nice wait there's one snap and then nearly gets caught Molly forcing him back they open up the smoke it's a fight it's a clash it's Donan magic to get a couple more and just when all that footing good bombs down Falls onto the shoulders of Alexi no way he can do this again keeps it good Alex's broad shoulders a second head shot in a 1v4 where the nade nearly takes him down again and it's the pistol of shirou to clear him Spirit back on the board and not brought enough for that all right let's keep it going here on Dust two second last round of the first half and it's a long thing again that thing's broken man yeah yeah maybe you could get someone to drop it for him James sty that Barrel ain't so straight just trying to keep a little little Vis Vision over smoke but is that the t- smoke it's a scout man it's a scout versus Shiro's op surely he's going to win this one surely that Scout doesn't take his head clean off because wonderful is going to come hunting preparing for the peak as his teammates work up the wall good collateral great damage out of shirou but they do still get dangerously close and this is a big commitment economically from na'vi so we've seen them get to the site with scraps and still fall short Don good to go one and a half but opens zix's sades have been fantastic JL to take it back oh yeah and with Chopper's utility he just revealed his position but no no no he's going for long he throws the from cat so they think he's there and he's going to come at this from a different angle this is not a save he doesn't have the best gun to do this they're actually planning for his position calling him out entir Elite Chopper on the walk up we'll see no one on the ramp he has an h and we're talking about two players less than 50 HP but there should be no way to lose this both hold on here's the nade crosses with both nade goes deep it's almost good you cannot kill Alexi with the frags oh and he swings for the head as the tip of the spear on the aide attacks it's been a half that he struggle and sometimes the score line doesn't say at all but we've seen it a little bit wonderful Crossing out L would have got a glimpse of Chopper in the pit not the best guns here MX just straight up Burns him alive but it's Alexi to save the day 18 kills deep on this half he's got to be careful at reloading this is an antio doesn't want to give away the gun cuz it could very well reposition Shiro he he's let his guard down he's picked up the other one and he's going in the duel now you've got two AKs in the mix but does this serve as the move for na'vi or are na'vi going to fall victim to another lesser by the flank is fast it was the bane of their ancient and it could be the end of their tside here too for Spirit to maintain this lead swing with the MP9 and it's going to have to be greatness from JL one is fast but the bomb is out here for Spirit to possess smoke and N at top of it 80 Health he creeps on out and ztics the final hurdle so yet again at the end of the half that's the five that has really stuffed him and spirit being you know him being down for in maps versus them that's another level to it so imma o not much in that first half not much to start out the second man look at his reaction dude that's a confident nod Shiro feeling it after a few misses as well inside of the a sight nice to see him kick it off with that lethal P250 and you saw how much fun they're having versus Vitality it was oh yeah a new a new spirit for sure in terms of these big game moments they weren't just yelling they were laughing they've got this one about to pounce player off of the sight would have been great for bit to get something but now 3v5 demanded of na'vi this lead's about to grow churro P250 from downtown he'll be covering off bomb plant Alexi Tri as he might is not banking on teammates at the moment we've got five frags on bit three for EMF four for wonderful I mean if it's it's not been him JL can't do the rest on his own yeah no kidding and now that that you know conversation that uh blade was having that tack where he wasn't even talking specifics you know making the move forward but falling back to Chopper two now oh what okay JL coming back at bomb let's see what that L stands for doesn't possess the kit tries to push into the sight looking to rock him three kills into this 1v4 if only he had the time woo cuz mechanically that was clean wow nope na' mhm but now Spirit of burgeoning on two maps here if na'vi aren't careful the buy comes in come on man somebody's got to kick it up ancients one thing Spirit came out with such a great game plan in the first half and you almost made the comeback and we've used up timeouts we've had coaches talking but that's only favorite Spirit enough of the tactics it's time to frag exactly this will be the map that embarasses you the most if neither of these three players on navi's bottom of the board can get anything going so guns in hand albeit not the op for wonderful still a little bit of positioning here so Spirit are forced to take a slower Tempo than what they'd thrown out but it does still feel like there could be a world of hurt in Bound for the the be split if they pull the trigger still options open minute to the clock can be so dangerous to play up in an aggressive setup like this but you know na'vi need to have some kind of map control and they've already been cleared out of mid Spirit know they're going to be playing close here or long here we go three player Packy deide the swing it could be great and it is nice wonderful Best stonk But Here Comes the B commitment there goes the smoke jl's got him lined up oh yeah triple from inside of the sight sit down Chopper has managed to get out from mid but he's flopped and that limitations here as well Tech 9 for Chopper ooh they know what they want though there's a long fight set up look at the numbers bit cross is over and Magic's Dead first the second does still emerge Through The Fire And The Flame sh and Don wait the Molly missed kill a piece and Don with a little Gap behind it gets sprayed back by Ena not to mention second player still incredibly low but so is Eman everybody out here on Longs working with minimal bits of Health it looked like a movement was so good from bit but that Molly wasn't there's that n been so good so the edge back to the hands of na'vi JL activates Chopper's going to have the warning but JL bests him it's the better weapon but it's a door left open for ztics always in the shadow of donk he always takes it so slow in the clutch makes Mak sure that everything is perfect right now doesn't want to put that bomb down until he gets a frag he's going to give space here for na'vi to reorganize themselves and they press Tab and they know that this guy does things meticulously sometimes that can not pay off but if he gets the bomb planted if then yeah hasn't moved man that 20 seconds he just burned is given a lot of time for JL to come around on the flank and so it's in the back out long ooh this time there's not nearly as much of a defense put up previously we were talking players on 10 HP stuck behind blue so this is one of the best bits of footing Spirit have had on Long thus far it's been very long Centric for them a lot of good spawns here and they they take it they force force the CTS back Molly for has a a smoke excuse me all good of course they know they can still him they can still spam him no frags oh no frag oh man in a game where the nades have been doing so much damage Alexi is going to be able to hold on to this position so there is a dual queued up C CTS could interrupt this wonderful going to slide right out you want to wait for a fight wonderful takes it from you and an additional smoke to still give Alexi room to work he fires through the smoke connects and with Don dead the steam starts to evaporate out long spirit that momentum they hope to bank on it gets taken away from them na'vi come looking for fights ooh and he'll just keep his head down for as long as he needs the support from his teammates this round has been fantastic and J just has the night shift waiting around knowing that he doesn't have to come in until later sprays a little bad here for Alexi still technically time to go for it but so much information means the stack is on a spirit are going to try once again has to be a total disaster they've got eyes everywhere bomb swaps over oh they're just going to sit back giving it over giving it up but with that tied game at nine said you can have long you can keep it na'vi have tied up why wouldn't it because they knew he was there he had to get out so they waited for tragedy to strike that's not a great sign for spirit I don't know how they're doing on timeouts but it feels like after that round like that that's where you'd want to take one I think they're cooked okay Spirit on their own [Applause] maybe wonderful in the pocket and in between targets oh he's chased down he's desperately trying to get the off back out but satic won't let him have it not the only op in the play though for na'vi we get this second one on bit curiously and as he tries to get Vision on something in mid this is a great chance for Spirit to take that lead back because unlike last round sure they were closer to the sight but now they they've got more control oh it's look it's going to be fireworks in a second like look how much action could potentially take place inside of middle this is Ean JL na'vi want control of it stacked on top of one anothera boost here with JL on the bottom of the totem pole blind CH for slight Cuts them down to size JL full white just goes for the spray down gives away the position and they peak in can bit do this with an OP will they give him anything to pull on he is so sectioned off from the only other player of his team but he does force them out Chopper gets tagged but Spirit show no stoppage wow they slam the mid control just right into B it is smooth as ever and so when you see time be a problem for the tside you think all right well definitely waiting a few extra seconds in certain places maybe there's an opportunity and it looks like we got something new only one round of the Ops for Spirit oh dude JL you've got to go above and beyond yeah it's a smoke and a frag in handy here's the util coming he's got the A4 can he mow them all down can he really hold them back not BL and the only other thing on this B site was a desperate spam It's Tha tick and do and now you can't even you can't even they just Smash down the door for the double entry e hits the dirt as he attempts all their money Shiro's going to slide out from middle and na'vi again at the tail and get struck down by by Spirits Big Time a thunderous exact and the one difference in this round to somewhere we've seen people get mowed down on the entrance is the right click flash into the smoke before they come out completely off the skated jail Vision that everyone has to be ready for when they're exiting tagged he's tagged from bad to worse JL not with the tools he had in the round prior stuck alone in B on 26 HP and yet again it is just this multifaceted tside from Spirit so many different directions so many different timings we praise them for the same thing back on the offense of ancient more fight out of two pieces from na'vi but Spirit knocking on the door of two map wins in this best of five it's a head-to-head they win every [Applause] time couple smokes left for Navi I mean they are scraping the bottom of the barrel but this is even a peak that's going to be set up Don can he be it he doesn't swing they they just want to try to get information again while the time is high get these last few nades out of them right yeah we're out of smokes now here for na'vi Spirit no it's an anti- Eco this is the least advantageous position you have because it's the last round they know it's a force now Force doesn't have much left behind it this Smoke's got something in EMA but we saw him with the M4 and a smoke not not be able to hold this whole entire pack back Peak into CT from Chopper they're going to get em to be frazzled falling back but they've got him in the corner now and they got him sitting on 5 HP there's no other route of Entry wonderful is that enough shirro kills JL finishes the B play Magic slides up to Goose and spirit will shave the players off this sight wonderful tries his damn dist na'vi finally touching nine to tie and just when they get close it slips from them again it happened back on Ancient and it'll end here on Dust two best of fives the bane of Alexi B and after his 21 kill map he steps forward to a final death Spirit on the brink of ending this season with a fantastic best of five final London are you ready yeah that was valid I think they are we can't end here no we can't end this Mirage man we've seen na'vi play Mirage we know how good they can be they've got it in them to do this it won't be easy but it's possible a blowout best of three no one ordered [Applause] this Spirit been chomping at the bits to get back towards the trophy case but oh no I'll show smoke okay we'll call it that we'll see what they got try to get out no kills o bit okay okay bit turns it around wonderful comes out from ticket body starting to hit the dirt here for spirit and emt's got an opening yeah zic stuck a little bit because that uh stair smoke didn't land and he's trying to make sure that they don't cross out of it can't find that trade it stays Al on Triple ztics on 17 HP and it'll go down place that he himself needed to improve he was yes don't be afraid to lose and take this win yes guys I would rather go home us over peing then playing like [ __ ] let's go just like car just like carrian said okay from one great to another damn daddy Alexi on Father's Day all business good old sexy be but honestly I love the Mantra go out on your sword yeah I mean especially when you got talent on your team sometimes you see them playing scared you go what are you doing man if I had your skill I would be swinging scary when the entire team of spirit are hitting as they are but you've gotten to Grand finals there's no time to be scared they collect themselves getting closer to the site and a very forward setup here from the defense bit takes a glance and it costs him oh Don though just one not bad if you're na'vi he didn't really believe it on that clear he actually half checked it that's an upgrade for imma beautiful that's going to allow for him to SLP back yes you lose your closest support but wonderful was here the whole time no threat to come out from Palace we get Spirit moving pieces here still holding on to enough utility if they don't follow through with this window smoke the time is they're on their side they're going to shuffle the pieces yeah look at the Molly Magic's just giving it over to ztics excuse me Chopper then they Chuck one up towards cat that unravels jl's plans he gets forced into the fight hey why did he take that toel like that the connector was Smoke okay the spray is good for the one and it's a lot of damage emed JL soften up Magics wonderful ends it with a double kill shirro can't get out from apps and this looks so good Up Until the End wow na'vi okay we got Mirage we've got a na'vi that are trying to embody the full swing confidence and if that's going to be their approach to this half prepare for [Music] fireworks wonderful clampers out over to cat we haven't really seen his hard hitting op yet but he's got five kills at the start of Mirage so let's see it looked like he was going to have a couple of rounds over on Ancient if not for those ontic grenades and I mean definitely some consistent pickups but just not one of those big ferocious moments yeah not so far okay sees a head sprinting down bottom mid oh got to be care they've traded places De 9 man this could get Alexi hears the footsteps hit down he wants to go for the rest of the Pack full confidence in the teammates to hold and understandably everybody hits the dirt for Spirit they thought they had a bomb site under wraps o hell yeah so this is a map pick by Spirit but again this series sort of it's one that goes a little bit beyond the stats in terms of how good na'vi have shown their mirage at this event specifically and that match versus phas was so good rein gaming especially just oh keeping an eye on each other magic do you have any tricks he'd have to pull more than a rabbit out of this hat well 40 seconds it's clear that he's going to go for it running into the other anchor there's a question about how much sound he makes on the approach yeah he's going to cut noise at the right moment and just enough time to actually take one fight London don't give this one away he on the approach and bit still cautious about multiple entries not quite sure where to look got them both nervous Magic's oh just can't don't get too excited got reasons to be content lose two players in the 1v4 but at least to come out on top that streak keeps going we saw the - from Spirit back on Dust two oh wonderful no no no JL how do you do that somehow CLS magic swings ztics comes out from Palace okay it's a faster Tempo being set here from Spirit just trying to swarm an asight that still has someone to play yeah that's obviously a novel idea there's full mid control here for the CT side they're going to be light on a they wanted to go two-on one versus bit and then take over the sight so you'd be stuck at the bottom of the stairs but instead the two [Applause] traits the two great trades here to stop him navi's aim stepping up we saw insane mid rounds on Ancient yeah and those insane mid rounds shirou featured him and Chopper trying to join forces here but still split with players all between difficult approach and CT's getting a little antsy starting to make their move oh Chopper had a chance and it activates shirou and that's one out of two players spotted don't give shirou space in the clutch he doesn't overstep he doesn't take that next fight towards M the off him no compared to like Alexi can randomly have a massive pop off game oh okay he knows he can aim for the body right yeah yeah but style points yeah he's he's sharp right now 10 and three he's putting him on spikes oh he crosses paths he gets away with this and Ean collects both on each side of the smoke oh my goodness gets a little wild from JL that's the one Galil here that Spirit we playing with DK he's got one one frag in the round but it's that cross of the path that really takes it away from Spirit they were trying to get something rolling in mid trying to join forces with an eventual donk out of underpass and it's taken away so sure they forego mid control they give it over to Spirit but you can confidently just spit your pieces and JL Alexi said just swing but now may not be the time you got a deep commitment on the aide as well so JL may die without his not the cleanest of rounds from JL but luckily for him Spirits pieces still disjointed for the time being now the thing is Don is going to start wrapping back around but Alexi could just cut off bomb and sure enough yeah he'll find that Chopper so cautious clean one I feel like joining hands to go towards the bide obviously looked a little bit more risky from our perspective and uh donk what can he do with one Health not much he goes down seven straight JL leaving spirit's ears ringing his impact off cat has been felt even the one time he dropped the ball all his teammates around him Alexi still yet to Die For the record place your B yeah back to back hot starts for [Applause] Alexi I mean if there is one leader to kind of drag players over Kicking and Screaming leave it to Alexi so it's another bout of mid control here for team spirit NE head hunting grouping up towards the aite as usual head shot angle Alexi or sorry wonderful drops that shot Molly goes under bit's going to play high ground but he still dies to Don Can Don get the multi frag to really open sight em killing Chopper and Magic responding so wonderful with this smoke grenade he had a gap but the flashbang allows for the ztics exit now there's a lot of bodies on the site and magix he goes through the connector smoke but it's all about wonderful as he Creeps in and lands it to his counterpart oh just like that even 3v3 now bomb is planted open for con which also exposes it to ramp which means Spirit have two people in position but that's a tside smoke magix has to come back through that his own teammate taking away his triple I don't understand it and a zic climbs up onto the box he gets his first head shot but there's more to do and Alexi takes it from him just pull off surely he sees them on the boxes if Don was still boosted I saw the wall bang I to begin with wonderful pressing in and pushing forward 13 frags to his name this is a flashback to the VP Anubis game yesterday this is the na'vi that London wanted yeah and this is the best start so so [Applause] far guys 130 we don't believe in jinxes what about 139 they know what they want yep they want map four yeah I got a hunch Spirit wanted even more wonderful not this time he's got the fall back the follow-up volley of util here from Spirit mid has been a place where they've taken a bit of control but usually it's JL to deal with cat wow this time wonderful is going to have a bit of a playground oh two kills deep smashed by donk again it is a 3v5 he TAPS at this distance connects into the head of bit Alexi shaving a play and then diving down to Van to call to others to help he needs support here Magic's got him pinned against the wall and as Shiro tries to work forward with only 13 Health JL between two fights clipped the 3v5 coming together bomb has to be picked up he's got a cross back imma has a chance for the fight no he's got it 10 to the clock and EMA with a question does he reposition Magic's it's now hands busy these nades have been fantastic it's definitely going to soften him up single shot to do the trick and IMA slides out he holds and he dies the Magics fin maybe they have a feeling it's coming be they're ready but he's not he's not fragging like it just yet it's not in this game in the way he has been in the past dong still at six kills and this is a match where they definitely could use the extra effort but where are we at Round 12 in the first half of map three spirit with the best case of getting two Alexi dodging flashes almost gives the open door and there he is yep dog with a chance there he is seconds already his the off reveals itself and it's shirro dead bomb being planted Don on the hunt locks into the corner if they want this sight back they'll have to come get it and it's round 12 so no saves wonderful works his way out and as he gets closer so to his teammates Don still looking sharp Don chopping down a third bit to be drawn into the same position four kills out of dock there was a real comeback Place Spirit they haven't shown us how they play from behind so far and this is their chance to do so with two rounds if they win a pistol we're going to give them the benefit of the doubt just like we did for na'vi but uh if you're alxi everything you said before the game is coming to fruition your team's playing well they're peing everything you guys have a lead you look strong they just need to try to hold on to it feels like that fire has been lit how big it burns the question how quickly it could engulf team spirit we'll see the JL nice Peak out from Palace into jungle yeah that's actually a crazy rotation from from shirou cuz he's open to that angle the entire time that really opens a that could be JL with a kind of crowning moment here if Chopper doesn't stop everybody else cuz it's Alexi up next from the same position and Chopper he's going to get Peak from Jungle too so oh make it work copper just like that and everyone do blink and you miss it what was where did that come from that was 3 seconds to round in after that shot that's off to you was wasn't expecting a kill like this oh my gosh he said get off my [Applause] property he can't believe it he said he's said hey I inspire me he said Don you see that dogs trying to keep this sinking ship afloat we got Alexi B using all this time here running low on pauses they're just going to talk it out in spawn yeah now it's weird cuz it's like thing you really want to avoid is tilt if you let Spirit back in a little bit that's the nice part about winning the pistol you avoid that sort of tilt of knowing well now it just gets a little closer automatically on alexity to keep the troops focused and again they have the benefit that Spirit did back on Ancient you've got such a lead at this point you've been laughing your way to this 10-2 half oh let him out looking for a bomb plant wouldn't be bad ztics it is clean triple kill and do comes through with the final two so no plant no frags nothing for na'vi to be proud of so far in this half yep yep clean kills overall he seem to be about t sides now the CT side gets a chance to [Applause] we first rifle comes in can't help but feel like this is important for na'vi who are down the two maps you know they it sort of have a thought might be the end of suffering quickly I don't believe that I can win I haven't done it yet it's 20 again in this best of five I mean it's What Spirit do to na'vi rinse and repeat over and over shirro lean with it off the top of stairs but do they know about the player that got out bits going to creep forward and as he gets closer they still haven't seen it oh they're very close now bit is incredibly close but he has to reveal himself to get the chopper frag towards Palace so now you know Shiro's going to come hunting blinded though pulled into the action bit's proximity is big and then JL fights through Alexis double do it on his own and he does so because they saved they get this by nice shot bro which is something yeah and it's actually magic now Magic's over on the a site with this this is a tall order for him to deal with if the numbers as they are right now come through I know this is the most tried advice ever but don't lose this round na'vi not to another antio you've already lost two in this game uhoh and it it's at least three guns up for Spirit but it's still your best chance to close out quickly oh man this thing looks ready Magic's finger trembles on the trigger and he misses is the first buck shot so bit comes through head shots goore and with the two Defenders down there's the three remaining members of spirit to try and rotate they got smokes they got flashes they've got enough for this retake attempt but they're outnumbered and currently outclass there's the lineup okay we'll forgive em cuz he is two kills deep and we've got Don blind the B as [Applause] feels like Dallas was so long ago God look at this atrocious buy as well I mean at least they've got the underpass control that's a little bit to work with but it's going to be something above and beyond if Spirit hadn't won rounds like this already this has been navi's Mirage from start to finish magix will catch the one but even last round 5v4 doesn't mean too much and especially while you are outgunned if shirro could grab an AK could have been a world of difference that rifle is picked up by magix at the very least and Don has been playing lights out but he doesn't have a rifle he's just on the deag oh and that nade it's a warning sign of things to come just when it felt like na'vi had been beaten and battered there's still the man advantage taken back by bit magic swings keeping it alive but here comes wonderful he's missed his chance but EMA won't and ima's got the ball just like that we waste no time because this is a best to five and London now we've got a game four Maps [Music] deep Oh what a beautiful sight it's nuk t night for a map four anyone could be the [Applause] [Music] close the curse of Alexi B in best of fives is lifted is lifted he's done it and if he hadn't it would have felt crazy because he was so good on Dust but his team came through and map three yeah a career all about never giving up a career about fighting back and he gets the entry into the site Don's out in the corner though and is a little bit disjointed here the rest of the pack comes out to clear him player swings from Heaven Don can't get more than one so the sight Falls and na'vi just like Mirage going to kick this off with pistol yes they start they start with a pistol that's obviously key one kill in this round it's donk from opposite vent everyone else gets caught off rotating ZX isn't even going to think about this for real but who what a first kill start to encroach on him from a few different angles and he can just B his time na'vi will win this one and there is the worrying sign was you know everyone on map 2 obviously everyone on Dust two that was the worrying sign for na'vi but they've quickly sort of reclaimed the right to say that we are here to fight and I think we got some very key insight into their communication when it came to that saying we don't want to go out looking like suckers we're going to swing and even if we over Peak at least we went for [Applause] it so this is Don's key position holding outside and when he's on his when he's at his best he is the best player right now at this going for the smoke spams but this time he doesn't even put a bullet through no pressure whatsoever and if they think maybe that's Max one or two cross they are surprise God yeah there's the rotation is a little slow they're going to hear all these players downstairs but no timing is called cuz no noise is made no pressure was put on ZX is up to the plate God this is going to be so desperate such a tough job but he Dives it he doesn't cross he Dives in zic straight up wants the fight and another to be had oh have at it then bomb Ben even at his feet team spirit ztics I mean come on it looked like this B site was under wraps and if it's not for ztics maybe they flood in but instead total 180 ztics throws himself into the fire I mean seeing him do something like that it's a play that makes him uncomfortable he's a he's a player who does everything perfectly and right there he realized I have no space I have to create some I'm going to get into a position that could cost me if I jump through this window and they Peak but I need to make that move now that's really great energy from ztics again it's been a fantastic series from him overall one of the new kids young kids here overshadowed by dunk all the time but still you know he could be the star of a smaller team at at times you see the ability from him so D will get the final kill but nearly in the right place at the right time but it ends up being a around where na'vi get a single kill and so for the first time in in this series we're going to have a clean break right after the pistol and conversion in the first half it's not going to be a four or five round start right it's always felt like each team had had a chance to just stamp their name on early games heroic moment from ztics now these are the spams that oh D has been very in tune with I don't know he missed that one possibility of the Cross has to get called Shiro's moving over shirou oh my almost caught out do allows the second player to cross but this time confirm spot is going to try to burn him out and Don happy to deliver at least they get the response right the molotov Works JL comes out from squeaky and that's putting pressure on an a sight that's also compromised with outside so into the 3v3 we go de Cho see someone jumping across it would have been the bomb with that information three on three I think they know what jl's going to do in this spot as the crawl comes now onto a spirit will wait for their chance they play too passive they let now if he get into spots that are too good then this could cost them bomb has everybody stoic holding their angle they crept into a sight they find it and they're going to hold at least the for the flank sure shirro eyes set outside just earlier but they crept down underneath his nose to plant that bomb in is the save called not yet they keep getting closer Chopper shoulder spotted he could serve as the jack knife and it's not Shir to overcommit so Alexi eyes up to the heavens hands busy bomb be on the halfway point kits on Chopper huge reroute from Chopper into heaven it's a double up in heaven they eat the Flash and they have to call it the flashbang stops their attempt wow that was a really Brave rotation to make all the way up through Heaven they had one chance where if one big mistake got made then they could be stuck back back site early woses for Spirit the one round they won was clean but it looks like this half is going to be messy [Applause] overall again I want to see Spirit starting off with lots of activity outside I think that's the number one thing if if Don doesn't get used to his full potential that's when they're going to have the most regrets so here he is bit a bit more supported to do so but once again a timing a cross with 100 HP on everybody I mean there's so little pressure coming out of spirit they're reorganizing outside they don't seem to be aware even that this could be a threat I mean vent control is taken oh oh no now this is weird now in this situation this could end up being a double fake it could be a spot where they draw rotation down I mean look how blind Spirit are at the moment this is so uncomfortable but the saint hit can still come to them can shirro hold it Miss shot first keeps his head down they're coming at him as his teammates rotate into no avail dog inside the fire commitment is key he's sitting on the bomb Shiro sitting on the bomb look at this lurk up from lower em arrives and Chopper able to best them Shiro awkward spot that's a quick scope into Alexi wonderful not working with the cannon and not working with much time and no teammates to support him so it's going to have to be massive he turns over to shirou and that is where the line is drawn rounds going live again but oh ow another save actually the money's just not there they invest last round no they didn't just looking to build it up I guess yeah unfortunate double save early on that gives the CT side a bit of moves all the while cash growing on the side of spirit shiru at the moment not working with any teammates right you know Don will come swinging over when needed but it's that wall of smokes with again a question mark on the other end how many times have na'vi gotten over with a pack not this time little slight a hand and a miss shot out of shirou leaves the door open Don it's just pistols unarmored but we'll see what he can chew through they come at him as a pack and well there's the two kills they're not supposed to have yeah only those Chopper routs to worry about that up in case the timing is here and ztics will be up in the heavens this time yeah IM tries to get a little frisky up to heaven the t's get their kill and then split trying to cause problems on a couple different fronts still time to recollect and the tools to grab to boot yeah actually yeah Chopper playing way back I mean he could have got that up and you know why can't wonderful get another one of those he can sneak that dude if he turns this into a frag they got problems Alexi gets the kill it's now a two on two Chopper you let them grab it Magic's ready to swing oh he's G oh you stopped it a second left yep 20 seconds now for Alexi he could desperately try to plant this he's going to go for the cover does he fake he's getting chased he knows where they're at oh and he's going to get cut down a true test of an strength Ali getting frisky little gap on that smoke too he sees the opening oh oh oh how much more can he grab he knows he's already doing something naughty a position to catch them off guard I I think he Alex is's calling around himself right now saying okay get ready get ready we're going to have to pay attention to Magic in a second group [Applause] up they got all the other pieces in position now this is an a hit primed and if magic keeps spamming he could very well get caught with a less full magazine flash goes deep Don still doesn't get his fight Alexi is a hook in the side of this magic picks a good spot he's locked in now 17 bullets to the mag but there's no follow through and chiro's out in the open at a moment's notice this could hit but there's no flashes what there is is the hero AK of JL who was saving in the last round and maybe trying to Prime himself for this one this where get and the Damage starts to come out that deep nade towards squeaky now they're starting to scramble now they're putting the op in the open they want the rifle on the backside but if this door is compromised if Alexi swings out he could very well tole cover magix tries to go back to squeaky won't happen it's just pistols D from above they've gotten in deep enough to put down bomb Chopper nowhere to be found Don does he do it on his own bomb has been does Don pick it up on his own he's been so timid and does he continues to wait it's a departure from na'vi they will forfeit the bomb site and they're doing it with no utility but NE the CTS don't have any either just this one flashbang they don't know T's don't know the numbers so they group back up and that JL AK sat in the back line counter terrorist start to work out looking to flood into the site they do slide down but the bombs on the front side bits got it for and jel primed he swings out with the pistol one hit neither one on the commit and so Spirits asight tested Alexis's grand plan almost comes to fruition catches them there was moments of transposition where magic and and shirou would have been caught looking in the wrong way while they were moving over it looked like a more stable setup with magic over at opposite vent but it still worked out cuz it covered mini perfectly sir magix has been showing off great anchoring he was great on Dust two his protocols were super solid all of a sudden though we see the fire next to spirit's name a streak of round wins on this CT side the majority of na'vi is pistol and conversion and we're starting to get flashbacks to the first two maps of this best of five yeah but it's a it's a weird one cuz like na'vi actually come with a pistol so you know no it's six round straight but there's openings there's no denying that and there was also that double save sprinkled in so it's not like Spirit have been truly tested that last round on a knife's edge yeah that's what it is though with na'vi t rounds they're going to create chaos sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't Spirit are looking like they're well prepared for all the lurks here's another one that's a lot of damage and he gets overwhelmed by JL who doesn't get a second magic the heavens dog slides out from M right and he gets himself a double so solid stuff from The Defenders Chopper slows them down he throws himself to the middle of the pack the fact magic gets two is insane imma what are you made of what are you made of you have the bomb you have time and they're going to respect you something starts to move looking to shuffle over the separate fights e oh he can't hit it doesn't have struggled magic magic shows us exactly how difficult it can be but what it means to deliver now Don starting to feel a little more feisty huh little wiggle room perhaps for Spirit riding the high of the 73 lead couple more rounds before their offense begins and see now we're starting to get this pressure right spamming through smoke this wasn't a feature of the early defense for Spirit Don was looking a little passive absolutely mhm but this round maybe not about Don it's shirro with another chance to shine we saw Don play from inside fire Shiro the ball and offers over ramp so it seems you've got stic down beneath now at times he's on the back site others towards control right now he is gunning for a fight looking to just shave one player off of the approach but na'vi going to take their time yeah this situation is tense as they say in chess maintain tension it's there so are the CTS who fights first Chopper great distraction but ztics he just doesn't get it Alexi will overtake it and they can just start to flood down into B JL going to buy time listening for the Rumblings of a rotate Magic's already down from vent we saw him critically stop bomb he swings he gets the kill but two back and return for na'vi and now it is only do nade in front of him on the approach bomb planted a huge and wonderful smashes them as and you're in sort of a you know great T hat territory na'vi going to try to go for it here round 12 deep into the night we're seeing Don open up in terms of Personality outside with the way that he's been peing putting pressure spamming this feels like more of what you expect when it comes to Spirit but all the while na'vi getting more comfortable taking more control oh oh butom man not missing that one not out outside he's being sharp but there is a player deep in Gage and as shirro locks into the spawn box ean's going to be given a chance he creeps out he sees him it's a tough duel but he can also disengage W he tries to get back on damaged he catches him oh the wall bank's not quite enough shirro thinking that e would dive into the cover but he ultimately just leads himself to his own death D looking for the response he gets flushed out e and he's done yeah that amal's big but couldn't trust it that much this slip out from JL check it out he's behind the vent yeah oh two gray out it's a skewer that's what you need chopper from the depths he's got backs turned to him wonderful so low HP and also zk's ready to swing I mean throw a firecracker in this bomb site Wonderful's eyes on Heaven Spirit could still take eight are they planning back site will they fake they slowed it again again ztics oh he comes out he slips there's the timing all the way through ztics with one JL keeps it going oh that is what you need na'vi t- side even before Alexi actually this is blade system as well I mean this is this is na'vi in 2021 they work Ace on the CT sides and then on the T sides they get between five and seven rounds it' be messy as hell so five might be a comfortable spot for them but Spirit obviously very comfortable on nuke oh man the tempo here holy hell Spirit they want that ramp in an instant and they've done a good job of getting the push forcing bit down little bits of Health for bit to hold with you'd think this is impossible you'd think they're putting so much pressure on but split's coming out from vent as well so the back players nicely done Don comes out with two he got the gush he cleaned him up he kills the first rotate and there's nothing else really here for na'vi a very critical second pistol round win for Spirit if they save off the retake D in with a third are we living in DK's era that's the question ztics he just trickles in with a single kill JL trying his damnedest but there's nothing he can do they coming for him this is Spirit calling for the blood of na'vi to try and pave their way wow to yet another map win Spirit have a different Advantage let's see how it pans out it's got to be now rifle rounds will be far and few between losing that pistol could spell disaster here for na'vi Mirage was lightning in a bottle oh JL running got the weapons for it but it's fast timing he's not ready and he's blind they just bombard him as wonderful tries to take to Heaven he also keeps his head down desperate in the vent oh back turn to him couldn't have gotten better here for Spirit they just burst onto the scene they need a kill through the smoke otherwise are they even going to try to do this no pressure no shots back na'vi the forbidden fruit look to walk away Spirit it is a quick 180 into the a sight and double digits on their road to another one yeah that's a that's a punch with follow through with conviction with the traits and they had J running over towards squeaky to throw nades for himself and then ended up eating the flashes of [Applause] course Spirit touch 10 the save is so critical we talked about how few these guns may be but good on bit to keep the rifle JL just missed the timing that n you have to channel what they brought last map honestly they're lucky they got away with as much of a save as they did cuz this buy still looks [Applause] healthy Tire sight Molly it's actually a Miss CT I think Lexi B looking for it outer you know we are so early on in this t-s side too it's not like na'vi have much data to go off of maybe blade is able to bring something in right preparation key we talk about the stability the mental health of na'vi yeah but after this D you're going to need Preparation H okay Don is ready outside they have to stop him I do like the secret setup we didn't see a lot of that when it came to spirit's defense so bit is primed and he's looking to tether off Alexi with a second player spamming out he goes for the peak but he's been spotted and he gives it up he does not want to be the Folly of nav magic slides out oh just right there was Alexi but he's able to get behind little box Do's Not Afraid maybe he should be Alexi sees all he's still floating and if he pushes out he could try to take more by force but it is this unbeknown scr control to na'vi he doesn't really believe it he actually makes noise outside Alexi still doesn't know these T's they could they could find him Pinn against the wall sure enough they're going to spray him down but luckily for na'vi things have gone well elsewhere got the double and with that Chopper left stranded so na'vi keeping those guns last round feels key healthy by strong fights individual fronts everybody starts to let lose here for Nai back to the action little more pressure on em out of the gate this time Gap in the smoke man he's going to keep eyes on that for certain fire spreads a little bit Alexi is going to ignore it we've got a player Up in Smoke things are getting weird Z he gets through and that wonderful drop just like that Donan ztics inside of the smokes inside of the Shadows where zonx thrives and spirit arrive inside of an a sight then suddenly they fall just as silent so JL from the top rope with the smoke in front of him oh he'll let him know it's a big rotation around I mean he's got to make a massive play there is no other chance for him it is now or never die on your swords said Alexi JL does connect with one but he doesn't get away shirro gives Chase bits his position's been known it's pieces of na'vi all across the a sight through the smoke ztics comes through wow that was a little bit of a Twist impression wasn't it coming in through mini with those two frags up front dunk with oh man it's not it's not over man see a nonbeliever we lift the curse on Mirage Alexi trying his absolute damnedest to lead them on as he did individually with frags at the start of this series but the runway starting to come to an end it seems It's aggression they try to take the fights again and while bit may be dead there is still footing here for na'vi that was a key moment to really just collapse inside and take advant of this spot can stay here as long as he wants cuz Elder is not compromised there is no other call to action for wonderful and they try it again to get in deep but EMA pinched into Hut does he set up his second these are Sharpshooters they're going to be aware of the potential push for wonderful but can he still get some action one tra back there it is that's the bomb wonderful cuts it off and we go 2v2 Time Is Here smoke goes down they exchange nades they're not want they don't want to be shy magix will scoop it up Spirit Camp Bank on shirou oh the back site Magic's on the bombb has and wonderful has to somehow creep through somehow crawl in wait wait wait oh he had a chance as they come swimming for the impossible reverse sweep seems so far gone chopper from shouts to calmness and Sonics again over and over on the edge of this smoke the shade plays with his food meanwhile Choppers found another and sure enough after an unprecedented katav and a questionable showing for the rest of the season all you have to do is get bit dead and it has been quiet from the tip of the spear he'll fall down into a the deaths of deep Spirit yes Mirage the anomaly they swung for the fences but na'vi fall in a best of five they beat their demon they celebrate after this amazing win in another best of five grand final May showers bring June flowers a blossoming promise for the rest of the year your blast London Grand Champions te good [ __ ] B [Music]
