Short filmTranscript
00:00Be the underdogs in this matchup based on Malz's performances this year
00:03But maybe just maybe the improvements are starting to truly kick in for Liquid
00:07I think that's the big thing is that the good performance if you especially if you make the playoffs here today
00:12Like that that is just something you're building upon now is Liquid and you feel like you're on the right path
00:16That could be such a good thing for their mentality
00:17Really really tough prospect a Malz team that only loses to the champions that only loses to the two best teams in the world
00:24And Liquid's got to go up against him and that's a good start
00:27Good find from Nurtz as Exertion hangs around a bit a bit too long
00:30Yeah well we have got Brolin holding down the B-bomb site
00:33He's going to be at the Coffins with some Util in his back pocket
00:36Smash bailing out so it's a fake B-hit
00:39Utility drops in
00:40Twist is just waiting inside of CT spawn calling him to come back
00:44And then he's got the kill on Yimpat and the rotation over
00:46Oh and Torji has no idea because he pushed away from the A-bomb site
00:49Okay that's a huge fake off the one kill
00:50And Shuey's found the next so the round's done
00:53It's cooked, it's toast and that's a Liquid Pistol
00:56Shue showing here for Nurtz he's going to get out of the corner
00:59But yeah
01:00Cool execute into the B-bomb site
01:03All the fake, all the ruse as they go back in towards the A-finish
01:05I mean once you get that opening pick from Nurtz over in Banana
01:07Like any kind of a fake
01:09They might not even have been planning for a fake until that kill comes in
01:12And then Shuey's like okay well now that we have a frag
01:14Now that it's a 5-on-4
01:15I have a lot more leverage to pull them around the map
01:18Trying to keep the USPs alive and the armor up for the next round
01:22And that ain't going to happen
01:23Nurtz, Nath and Ultimate going to encroach upon Sphinx's position
01:27Only a matter of time
01:30Under some pressure, oh my god the knives are out
01:32Oh no
01:33We get a knife fight
01:33Big shank out for the prison yard
01:35It's going to be space coming out on top
01:36Alright Nath, I know you're Canadian but I can't watch you back away from a fight like that
01:40You were stuck in that knife fight
01:41You were in that
01:42You were in the shit, you got to commit to it
01:44No emotion though, he's not too...
01:47No, he doesn't care either way
01:48Well we got Team Liquid taking the piss around and we're going to see Malz buy up into this
01:54This is a twist making his soul adventure very effective
01:58Yesterday we...
01:59I know I got to see this one
02:00Why does he turn away?
02:01Yeah
02:02You're in the knife battle
02:03Yeah, you had the apple on it too
02:04You're in it!
02:05Yeah, he just swung, go!
02:06He's hoping to get bailed out a little bit earlier
02:08He's hoping maybe his teammate could rattle off a shot
02:11Alright, good buy back here for Malz
02:14You got the M4 for Spinks
02:15MP9 out for Yimpat
02:16And a great start for Torzi
02:17Taking down his former in-game leader
02:19Oh, and there's Spinks swinging off the nerds contact
02:22Big start for Malz
02:24Two kills, Twists and Nath
02:26Going to put a little pressure over towards lane
02:27That's ultimate finding one back
02:29So round not lost yet
02:30And that's tons of damage onto Spinks brought down to 24 health
02:34So the round settles with a minute and 15 seconds on the clock
02:37As Team Liquid gather up for the B finish
02:40Interesting to see such a heavy stack
02:42But I mean, you can see the idea
02:43As soon as they get over
02:44They execute the push towards brackets
02:46Brolin and Yimpat going to push down middle at the moment
02:48It's a little bit late
02:50He's going to go through
02:51He's actually made it into the site in time
02:52Did he just get spotted?
02:53Doesn't matter!
02:54What?
02:55Okay, gets away with a double on the 5-7
02:57That is ridiculous from Spinks
02:59And now Twists has to clutch it
03:01Inside of the site, bombed down in the fountain
03:03And we have talked about Twists stepping up
03:07His individual performance getting better and better
03:09Unshackled by the burden of in-game leadership
03:11But not this time, not this clutch
03:13That is a ridiculous round from Spinks
03:16It really is
03:17I mean, he just gets there at the perfect moment
03:19He drops that smoke and uses the cover to cross over
03:21And just gets lined up as they turn the corner
03:24Gonna go for an apartments pop
03:27A lot of utility available
03:29Naft jumping out
03:34It's going to be Torzy
03:35Clean!
03:36Oh!
03:37Very clean with it!
03:38Three kills coming in on the AK-47
03:39And Torzy nearly gets all five
03:41Just about stopped by Nerds at the end of the round
03:43But stylish from Torzy
03:45It's one of the great things he's got in his skillset
03:47An offer who's very, very strong on rifles as well
03:50So Torzy puts a solid round in here with a quad kill
03:55Makes sure that this liquid investment of Tech Nines
03:58Isn't going to do anything
03:59Cause no damage
04:00That'll put a smile on your face
04:01Torzy gets the boys fired up
04:03They got two rounds in a row
04:09Miles let Liquid go through some initial utility in Banana
04:14Wait until that phases out
04:15And throw their own utility back
04:19Exertion severed off from his teammate
04:21Still going to get away with a double kill
04:22And he's standing tall
04:24Eventually taken down by Twist
04:26But Exertion with a lot of effort put in that
04:28Yeah, it's actually really nice trading from both teams really
04:31Exertion with his double kill off of Brolin's death
04:33But then the Liquid player is trading him back and forth
04:35So two for two Top Banana
04:36I don't think Liquid is going to be too upset with that
04:38Happy to play the 3v3 with a minute left on the clock
04:41Naf has not been too aggressive over in Boiler
04:43He's been playing it passively
04:44So doesn't have information of brackets
04:47And the real issue might be the utility that they can bring in
04:50You need to smoke over at Small Pit to block off Torzy
04:53Molotov at the half wall for Yimpat
04:56Oh, straight through the head
04:58Twist just gets splattered
04:59Now Ultimate putting pressure into the pit with that Molotov onto Yimpat
05:04He's going to have to change his position up
05:05He has got the support of Torzy
05:08Naf gets his first kill off the map so far
05:10With 20 seconds left inside of the site
05:12Torzy hunkers down
05:15Making sure things are safe
05:16Tapping, seeing if anyone's going to jump on through
05:18Liquid being very cautious
05:19Which is giving Torzy
05:20Oh, he can stop this
05:21He can stop this through the smoke
05:22Well, waiting for the plant to go down
05:24Not going to take the shot
05:25And so Ultimate has given a shot to win this clutch
05:28A 1v2
05:29Difficult
05:30And Spinks will deny
05:33Nice round from Spinks
05:34I mean, actually a nice round from Team Liquid as well
05:36That they get into that 3v3
05:37Not a badly played round from both teams
05:40So Shuhei is going to go towards Banana now
05:43Pre-emptive smoke
05:44He steps in front of it at the logs
05:45Torzy peering down middle
05:47And just now Liquid
05:48Get that control for free
05:49But not in halls
05:52Impact going to come out on top of the opening
05:54Kill Prolin on the clean up
05:56Barrels through 2
05:57Now tries to get back behind cover
05:58Had utility out in the open
05:59And so Twist able to respond
06:02Now still 3v2
06:03Player advantage
06:04Smoke's coming in
06:05Twist still makes the most out of it though
06:06As Team Liquid 2v2
06:07As Team Liquid 2v2
06:08You can see that miscommunication though
06:09Twist and Ultimate
06:10Both throwing a smoke towards CT spawn
06:12Not a huge deal
06:13But they might want that back
06:14A little bit later on in this 2v2
06:15Look how much utility
06:16The two remaining players
06:17And Malice have as well
06:18Impact's getting closer and closer to the church
06:20No one's watching for the wraparound through Coffins
06:22Twist is well exposed
06:25Impact's going to use that molly
06:27For new box
06:29And then the impact goes down
06:31Torzy has to clutch it
06:32The ESPN lights out so far
06:34Repositioning very quickly
06:36Going back to try and find Ultimate
06:38Who cowers in dark
06:39Oh Torzy knows exactly where you are
06:41And he hunts him down
06:42Finds him in the darkness
06:44And gives Malice a 6th
06:48Well they can often
06:49Do their best work on Inferno
06:53Best case scenario now
06:54Is a tied half
06:55And it doesn't really look like
06:56That's going to be a possibility
06:58Shuei sitting in the flames
07:00At the top of Banana
07:01Here comes the peak from Exertion
07:02And Shuei's going to grab the opener
07:04Although the pressure is still on here
07:06Two players staying committed
07:07Shuei's going to get a follow up kill
07:08And now they know
07:09There has to be just one left
07:10Yeah they do
07:11Smoke down towards Coffins
07:12Naf has another
07:13Sphinx up on top
07:14Tough to get a multi-kill from this position
07:16It's Shuei again
07:18A huge round from the IGL
07:20Shuei does it from the front
07:21Triple kill to get Liquid their second
07:23Yeah and even on that lurk as well
07:25Naf in the middle of all that chaos
07:26Got one kill in the apartment
07:27So Torzy's just going to hang on to the AWP
07:29No heroics for him in this round
07:30And there's no reason to hunt if you're Liquid as well
07:32Your money isn't set in any way
07:33So you don't want to lose any of these AK-47s
07:35Torzy should be just fine
07:37With no real issues of hanging on to the AWP
07:39Although Naf
07:41Feeling frisky
07:43Stepping up the stairs
07:44Here comes the swing
07:45Torzy looks away and moves off the angle
07:47But when he comes back
07:48Naf's already here
07:50And that's unfortunate timing for Torzy
07:52Maybe the first thing that's gone against him in this half
07:55This is something you mentioned just a round ago
08:00Is Twist yesterday
08:02Getting a lot of these quick plays up mid
08:04And applying the pressure
08:05But unfortunately for Twist
08:06He takes damage down through that mid-smoke
08:08He's left on 13 HP
08:09But they're going to accelerate
08:10And the AWP is here as well
08:11So maybe the HP doesn't matter
08:12But no one's watching for Torzy
08:14Oh, smoked off
08:15Just the perfect moment
08:16Good shout from Jimmy
08:17Excuse me
08:18There's the shot from Nurtz
08:19And the hit is on
08:20Yeah
08:21It's going to be Nurtz to follow up as well
08:22Space into the library
08:23And Team Liquid bailing out with the advantage
08:27Spink is going to take that back though
08:28Nurtz caught
08:29But eight seconds left
08:31And damage goods here for Team Liquid
08:33As they try and get towards the B bombsite
08:34But their Lurk is gone
08:35Twist is removed
08:36And now they know they can focus on the final attack
08:39Into the B site
08:40Spinks is holding the cross
08:41And they line right up for him
08:42They would have never thought he had the timing
08:44To get into that position
08:45They would have been looking deep towards CT spawn
08:47For the rotation
08:48But Stinks
08:49Spinks
08:50Excuse me I said Stinks
08:51Spinks does a great job
08:52And his capacity as a rotator, right?
08:55Falls back to the CT spawn
08:56Gets his kills
08:57Goes back to the B bombsite
08:58Closed out the round
08:59Beautiful work
09:00Yeah, I think you've just given the Twitch chat
09:01Their next nickname
09:02Yeah, I know, their next name
09:03When he misses a shot
09:04I apologize for that
09:08Exertion's going to open things up
09:09With Shuei to fall
09:12So not able to replicate his success
09:14From a couple of rounds ago
09:15Straight away
09:16And Liquid
09:20And Liquid it looks like is waiting
09:21For Nertz to have some contact
09:22Let him be the one
09:23To try and create something
09:24With the AWP
09:25Peeking into the B bombsite
09:26Low HP
09:27Low risk
09:29It's gone the other way
09:30And all you have left now
09:31Is to walk into Spinks' waiting arms
09:33Well he doesn't get anything done this time
09:35Yimpat
09:36Under a little bit of pressure
09:37Getting spammed down
09:38But he still gets away with one
09:39And he'll go out again
09:40Twist taking him down this time
09:41Towards he not able to connect with the AWP
09:46Tries to cover some ground with the USP instead
09:48Twist puts the bomb down
09:49Naf in a crossfire
09:50And the Canadians
09:52They look to step up together
09:53This is all on Naf though
09:54Twist has a headshot angle with low HP
09:55But if Naf goes down
09:56It's impossible for Twist
09:57He's got nowhere to go after the fact
10:01Naf damage done
10:02And the kill collected on Brolin
10:06Twist realizes stepping up to the fight
10:07Now Exertion comes in
10:09And so close
10:10But yet so far
10:11As Twist celebrates
10:12An important third round victory
10:14Yeah fist bump
10:15As he hits the shot
10:16He absolutely had to
10:17With no HP
10:18He was dead if he misses the headshot
10:20So
10:21Money is finally running out for Malz
10:23But they've got another opening kill
10:24Torji alleviates some of that pressure
10:26Yeah as long as he's got the AWP
10:27You know
10:28You're not too worried of your Malz
10:29He's 17-4 now
10:30Off the back of that opener
10:32Let's see if Malz can convert this
10:34Into their eighth round win
10:36Team Liquid applying pressure towards A now
10:38Quite committed
10:39And it's ultimate to respond
10:40At least one kill back
10:41Brolin can't get away
10:42Shui spams him down
10:43Critical
10:44Another 3v3 though
10:45Seen a lot of these in this half so far
10:46And there's still two more defenders
10:47At the A bomb site
10:48Scratch that
10:49Make it three
10:50Torji sliding into library
10:51Now arriving back
10:53Naf is still waiting patiently
10:54For his time to come out of the balcony
10:56You will not expect this
10:57You killed two in middle
10:59Two in pit
11:00And one in library
11:01After the fact
11:02That's insanity
11:03Well ultimate
11:04Ultimate
11:05Ooh
11:06Will we see Yimpat
11:07Naf is gonna go down
11:08So Yimpat actually wins that fight
11:09Now you know that Yimpat's there
11:10But you're not expecting
11:11Spinks
11:12You have to trade that
11:13Ultimate does so
11:14But here's Torji
11:15And the shot will close the round
11:16But Naf starts that
11:17Because they've killed two at A
11:19And he thinks he has maybe
11:20An opportunity to kind of slide out
11:22One person has a lot to watch
11:24You have to worry about lane
11:25We'll hit the pause button
11:28They've got the brackets
11:29They know they've forced
11:30The Alper to go back
11:31But look at the difference
11:32In the game yesterday
11:33Like B
11:34Malz has done such a good job
11:35Of setting the signal
11:36That like banana
11:37Is just not an option for you
11:38The B bomb site is not something
11:39You can win
11:40Exertion notes are coming towards him
11:41Here's the steps
11:42Gets into the corner
11:43And Spinks will combine with him
11:44So in the end
11:45It is a convincing half for Malz
11:47A strong finish
11:48Led by their Hungarian sniper
11:50It is ultimate to fall last
11:52And a 9-3 score line
11:54The first outing of Shuei
11:56Versus his old squad
11:57Is all coming up Malz
11:59Can't really be too upset
12:01About it at the moment
12:02Alright
12:03Plenty of utility here
12:04For Malz in this pistol round
12:05They're going to be shaping up
12:06For an A hit
12:07There's currently three defenders
12:08Here from Team Liquid
12:09Naf with Joel Beretta
12:12Stepping up into the apartment's peak
12:13But he got spotted by Yimpat
12:14So it's twist instead
12:15He only gets one
12:16Ultimate also only getting one
12:18So that's not enough
12:19From the A defense
12:20And we've got Malz 3v2
12:22Oh I do
12:23Okay Nertz started walking
12:24So Brolin won't hear the footsteps
12:26He's got Shuei coming from CT Spawn
12:27Nertz is going to take the long route
12:29Over towards Halls
12:30To try and put together this 2v3
12:31They do not have a kit
12:32Currently picked up
12:33So it's got to be relatively fast
12:35They've got to be quite speedy
12:37Nertz still taking it
12:39Time has to shift
12:40A lot of ground
12:41To gain inside of the apartments
12:43Brolin also spotting out
12:44The library players
12:45There's the secret now though
12:46Nertz is at Boiler
12:47So now they've got to get a move on
12:48Got to sprint in
12:49But Shuei getting caught
12:50Nertz left in a 1v2
12:52And lack of kit
12:53Lack of time
12:54It's all about kills here for Nertz
12:55And he's jumping into the bombsite
12:57He's got the headshot
12:58But has he got the time?
12:59He's going to stick it all the way
13:01Holding it all the way
13:02There's no way
13:03With the no kit on his back
13:04It's an ambitious effort
13:05And yeah definitely no time
13:07I do like it
13:09It's been a frustrating time for Liquid
13:11A lot of changes here and there
13:13To try and get back to where they want to be
13:15Well the most recent change is
13:17Shuei coming into this lineup
13:18Meant to be the guy to get him
13:19To that next level
13:20To break through that glass ceiling
13:21Ultimate peering down mid
13:23Good snap over
13:24Might be the first time
13:26We've seen him come out on top
13:27Of the AWP duel
13:28Torji taken down early
13:29And a 5 on 4 for Liquid's
13:32First gun round
13:35It's got to be perfect
13:36From here on in
13:40Ultimate plight onto the porch
13:42It's another kill from the AWP
13:43And you'll follow up again
13:47Ultimate
13:48Here we go
13:49This is more like it
13:51Go and get the ball
13:52Ultimate with 5
13:53Rollin
13:54Get him rolling
13:55That's nice
13:56Yeah you love to see that
13:57It might not have huge impact
13:58At the end of the day
13:59On the outcome of this match
14:00But obviously as we talk about
14:02In blowouts
14:03It's nice to get around like that
14:04Just so you can have some confidence
14:05Going into the next map
14:06Going into the break between
14:07Inside the series
14:08So good sequence from Ultimate
14:10Showing a little bit of a flash
14:11But definitely too little too late
14:13Not specifically him
14:15But Liquid in general
14:164 to 12
14:17You need 8 rounds in a row
14:19Go for nerds down through the banana smoke
14:37And a lot of damage done as well to Brolin
14:41In terms of
14:42How do we open up a round?
14:43That's not bad at all
14:44Yeah Alan confirmed on Brolin
14:45But he's certainly going to be pleased
14:47At the end of the day
14:57Another piece of impact here
14:58From Nerds!
14:59Ho ho ho!
15:00Shredding them in the banana hold
15:02We got Brolin low
15:03Because of the early damage
15:04Done from Nerds as well
15:05He's got the ult pinned up
15:06Looking into the pit
15:0740 seconds on the clock
15:08Bomb shifting its way back over towards A
15:12Gonna give this a good go
15:15Brolin taking twist
15:16Because he overextended into the open
15:18And so that could be a kill
15:19That could cost him
15:20And here comes Naf from the pit
15:21Looking to clean up the mess
15:22And that's exactly what Naf will do
15:24Yeah careful though
15:25I think Torji saw that jiggle peak
15:27He had maybe a quarter of a second
15:28To get that shot lined up
15:29And with the way Torji's been playing
15:30That
15:31You can walk up to him right after this
15:32Just jump over the balcony
15:33Next time I see him
15:34Next time I see him
15:35Nerds is going to be waiting in behind the sandbags
15:39Grenades going over the top
15:40And we got Nerds hiding
15:41Grenade landing on top of his head
15:43And Nerds is still alive
15:44And actually with that opening kill
15:47How uncomfortable Mal's felt about going around the corner
15:49They call it off
15:50And they go back into the mid play instead
15:52Yeah but there's a hall set up from ultimate and Naf
15:54They've got to break it up now
15:55They've got to be really really careful
15:56Hearing the noise
15:57Hearing the utility
15:58And middle ultimate misses a shot
15:59They get a little bit closer
16:00Yeah but he's dropped down
16:01He's changed the position
16:02He doesn't miss that one
16:03He just doesn't do enough damage
16:04To bring down his opponent
16:06Toysi will bear it down upon him with AK bullets
16:09Naft looking to step up from the balcony
16:11Twits combining with him
16:13And that's more like it from Team Liquid
16:15Four players staying up against the full by Mal's
16:17Yeah there we go
16:18The team's waking up
16:27Nerds is starting to feel it in banana
16:29Confident
16:30Charging down
16:31Getting two head shots
16:32And even shooting his own teammate
16:36This has been such a good sequence for Team Liquid
16:38It's one of those situations
16:39You almost like kind of feel bad
16:40Because you're like the first half was so rough
16:42That even though this looks great
16:44The comeback like
16:45You have to come back nine rounds in a row
16:46Like you can accidentally fall into a round win
16:49If your Mal's
16:50During that stretch
16:55Yeah that's the problem is
16:57If it's eleven rounds
16:59At least you have that one actual little buffer between you
17:04Alright well things looking okay so far
17:06So at eight
17:07We'll see what Mal's decides to do moving forward
17:09It'll be another gun round
17:10As the losing bonus is completely built up now
17:12Even without the plants
17:13They're going to be all fine with money
17:15It's a little bit awkward
17:16But shouldn't be any issue
17:17Nope
17:18Shuei's going to clean up one
17:19And Twist will grab the second
17:20So we're looking at twelve to eight
17:23Four rounds back
17:24And we've got Team Loco bringing us to overtime
17:29Exertion quietly creeping into the site
17:37But now that fight comes down
17:39And Shuei to lose the
17:40We've got Mal as a player up with 45 seconds left
17:43Could this be the close to Inferno?
17:44Nurtz has been so good
17:46But not this time
17:47Not enough impact from that B defense
17:49And all three remaining liquid players are on A
17:51Yeah ultimate just got a kill
17:53So they know the extra player
17:54That third player who would have been there
17:55Is on the other side of the mat
17:56Jimmy's gone for a long flank
17:57So Twist is going to be occupied with him for some time
18:00Ultimate inerts coming in
18:01And trying to make a miracle happen
18:03Well the two plays in ruins are incredibly low
18:05But it doesn't matter when the shots connect
18:07Just too much done in that first half for Malz
18:10And Team Liquid a few extra rounds here in the second half
18:13But it will be Malz to come out on top
18:15Yeah that's the thing
18:16Like you see the CT side
18:17And you're like this could have been something cool
18:18But nothing happening on the offensive side of things
18:20For Team Liquid
18:21And that's it done
18:22A statement game from Torji
18:2425 and 10
18:26The offer of Malz was relentless
18:28And he's got them a map 1 victory
18:30Close towards low ramp
18:32Looking for that follow up peak
18:33A minute and 15 seconds on the clock
18:35Torji and Brolin have utility
18:38Out towards Team Main
18:40But that'll be a fake
18:42Naf has been waiting for this strike
18:45But here comes Spinks
18:46Right around that corner
18:47And not a chance in L for Naf to even react
18:49And now you fall back
18:51And you just go pop dog
18:52Off that kill
18:53That's the easy finishing play
18:55And Shuei's gonna wait
18:58Side of the smoke
18:59Walking into the open
19:00Tapping away at the chest
19:01Shuei's gonna come out on top of it
19:02Yimpath to trade it
19:03And Twist now alone
19:051v3
19:06Oh he's still got one head shot in him
19:08But he's taking so much damage on board
19:11Yeah this
19:12These better be instantaneous shots
19:14This is about as close to an impossible clutch
19:15As you can get
19:16Especially in the train yard
19:17With so many angles
19:19Jimmy's got it
19:20Triple kill
19:21And the pistol
19:22And Malz
19:23Get started on train
19:25Absolutely
19:27Filthy performance
19:29And that's what Liquid's trying to overcome
19:31Is getting buried by Torji's op in map 1
19:33Yeah
19:34The CT side on Inferno
19:35Looked much better than that on the T side
19:37They started to get the ball rolling a little bit
19:38It had some juice to it didn't it?
19:39Yeah
19:40Nurtz in particular was playing very well
19:41And he's the man pushing into a teammate right now
19:43Getting involved in a fight
19:44Against Exertion
19:46Doing damage
19:47But going down
19:48As Nurtz sticks around the smoke
19:49Exertion hunts down that kill
19:50Despite the low HP
19:58Well here comes a crunch
19:59Smoke fades
20:00Thankfully was replenished
20:02Exertion with that low health
20:03Gonna come through the smoke
20:04Flashbang's perfect
20:06Shui's waiting
20:08Exertion coming out first
20:09Naf is actually getting away with multiple kills here
20:11Shui's gonna chime in eventually on the impact
20:13And we're looking at Sphinx
20:14And towards the left
20:152v3
20:16Make that 1v3 for Sphinx
20:18And he's just not ready for the twist push
20:20Okay there we go
20:21Good start to the Liquid defense
20:22Not able to recover the AWP from ultimate
20:24So they'd have to reinvest in that
20:25But they don't have money in this round
20:27Another buy coming in from Maus
20:30They've got control
20:31And they're in position
20:32But nobody from Maus yet
20:33Has stepped forward into the trap
20:35Naf waiting for the IV peek
20:40And then he pulls a grenade
20:41Just as the peek comes in
20:42So he gets caught
20:43Hands busy
20:44Yimpat to follow up on that gap
20:45And ultimate to topple on the bomb trade
20:47All due to the timing of Naf's nade
20:50As he just shifts out
20:51That's rough
20:55And you can't go for anything
20:56The other 3 members of your defense
20:58Have aggressed on the other side of the map
21:01So there's no reaction available to them
21:03He's isolated from his teammates
21:05They're coming close
21:06Brolin creeping in behind
21:08Oh they're all 3 dead
21:10Oh this is it
21:11The lineup coming in
21:12The mode out from Brolin
21:14No mercy whatsoever
21:17Team Liquid save nothing
21:19That ain't bad at all
21:21Got his whole team hyping him up
21:23For good reason
21:24Sphinx lurked out of Team In
21:26And catches Nerds
21:27Who's killless in this map
21:280 and 7
21:30Sphinx low
21:31Doesn't matter
21:32Still gonna walk forward
21:33Still gonna get his kill
21:34And he's not stopping
21:35Sphinx unleashed
21:37Ultimate
21:38Ooh
21:39Gets a good timing
21:40As Sphinx looks awake
21:41Preoccupied
21:42By other issues
21:43Doesn't matter though
21:44Team Liquid getting destroyed
21:45Yeah well I mean your A main defender
21:46Has 0 kills on Nerds
21:47And we've seen him get aggressive
21:48A couple of times
21:49But it's gonna be really tough
21:50To stem the tide of anything fast
21:52If you're not able to get any production
21:54In that position
21:55And Sphinx having himself a game
21:57But also after that shot
21:58We see this round
21:59Look at the confidence in these guys
22:00Like coming out mid
22:01Coming through the smoke
22:02Like Sphinx has no fear
22:03Pushing all the way down
22:04Looking for a fight
22:05With 2 HP
22:06Maus is just hitting
22:07A
22:08A stride here
22:09That Liquid can't handle
22:10And it just keeps getting worse
22:11Kills and garbage time for Twist
22:22Good job hanging on to the M4
22:24Big swing for Twist
22:35Into the open
22:36Sphinx
22:37No one's moved
22:381 for 1
22:3950 seconds left of the clock
22:40And it is only Nerds
22:41Inside the site here
22:42His teammates haven't come to help him
22:43Just yet
22:44That rotation is starting to arrive
22:45But they still need Nerds to step up
22:47It's 1 and a half from Nerds
22:49And the Rotate arrives
22:50It's ultimate to chime in
22:51Torzy's waiting for him to overextend into the open
22:53But he double scopes
22:54Just at the wrong time
22:55And then Nath gets the angle on him
22:56And the impact to drop
22:58So the double up setup does work out
23:00And we've got Team Liquid with her second
23:01That's the most chill Maus round we've seen so far
23:04Just enough to stay alive long enough
23:06For ultimate to rotate over
23:07But now all of a sudden you're punished again
23:09Round 10
23:10And Torzy just puts you right back in the bin
23:12You can't
23:16You can't
23:18You can't overstate
23:19How good Torzy has been for Maus today so far
23:24Ultimate trying to get that pick over towards Ivy
23:26Unable to do it
23:27So Spink steps out
23:28On to B
23:29Catches Twist
23:30Looking the wrong way
23:31There was a blind spot in Heaven
23:32And Twist was completely exposed to it
23:33The impact catching Shuei
23:35Trying to make the risky maneuver forward through the smoke
23:37Every move is perfect right now for Maus
23:41Let's
23:42Let's
23:43Let's just kind of talk about it how it is
23:45This is gross
23:47Liquid is clearly outmatched here on Train
23:49In a variety of different ways
23:50Both from individual decision making
23:52Individuals plays available for Maus
23:54The team tactics
23:55But
23:56Remember this is the first time they've played it with Shuei
23:58And even before that they only played it once
23:59In the past three months back at Pro League
24:03So a very unimpressive
24:05Underwhelming showing from Liquid
24:07As team and individuals on Train
24:09But clearly a map they have yet to put significant time into
24:15So a fully kitted out Maus squad
24:17There's a double push through
24:21Pop into the fire
24:22Spinks is ready for both
24:24Ravages them
24:25As Maus look to tip into 9
24:28It's Naft to at least get one kill back here in Exertion
24:32Coming through the smoke
24:33That's a free offering to Twist
24:343v3 somehow out of this
24:36The impact getting caught
24:37Nerf doing damage
24:38But
24:39Too many targets
24:40And he couldn't finish off any of them
24:41An ugly spray
24:42A clean first kill
24:43Maybe he gets a second
24:44Now as they call it out
24:45We can hear it in the studio
24:46Here we go Naft
24:47This is suddenly a big clutch offered up
24:49Against Torzi in the 1v1
24:51And Naft is being quiet
24:54He's somehow stayed alive in the corner
24:56Away from the fire
24:57Away from the flames
24:58And Torzi's out of there
24:59He's just beelining it to the other side
25:01And even though the Molotov doesn't kill Naft
25:03Like what are you supposed to do?
25:04Like you were smoked off
25:05So you no longer have any kind of vision
25:06You like
25:08You can't go towards Ivy
25:09He's not going to be there
25:10So you're just sat and wait
25:11Until this bomb gets planted
25:12And then it's like great
25:13I've got to go find him
25:14In the other train yard
25:16So good luck
25:17And you know it's the AWP as well
25:18Although Torzi with Tech-9 senses
25:20Naft is low
25:24Oh the amount of time
25:26That it's taking for Naft to get here as well
25:27There's got to be so many different positions
25:29Going through his mind
25:30He's got some utility
25:31Torzi's coming back to the angle
25:34Naft's going to Mully out Heaven
25:36Looking for the ramp
25:37Torzi not showing anything
25:38Not giving it away
25:39Now he knows where he is
25:40Naft taps
25:41No kit
25:42Utility goes in
25:43Molotov doesn't reach the position
25:44But no kit on his back
25:45Torzi prevents the Naft clutch
25:48And it's another round here for Malz
25:50It's hard fought in the end
25:53Pretty much everybody does
25:57This is certainly one of them for Liquid
26:03Exertion
26:04Grenade lands in his position
26:06Gets traded out by Mag-7
26:08Malz is going to go towards Ivy
26:09And this is the first time they've done this
26:11With this kind of numbers
26:12And especially this late in the round
26:14So it's kind of a cool play to bring out
26:16In the last round of the half
26:17Naft is going to come be aware of the possibility
26:19Tough angle to deal with
26:20Naft blinded as well
26:22Oh it's so rough
26:23He gets into the corner
26:25For just a second longer
26:26But Yipat going to take him out
26:27Ultimate looking to step up
26:29He upgrades that Mag-7 into the AK-47
26:32They have time to pause and let Sphinx play next
26:35Brolin
26:36He's going to play next
26:37He's going to step out into the open
26:38It's going to be Ultimate to go down
26:39Brolin searching out towards CT as well
26:41Shuei
26:42Taking a lick of damage
26:43And Torzi's going to grab that kill
26:44Leaving Twist alone
26:461v3
26:47And Double Figure is about to be secured
26:49Unless Twist can pull this back
26:51Goes into the site and it's denied
26:52It's Brolin to round it out
26:54A 10-2 scoreline in the first half of Train
26:57Looking very good for Maus
26:59I don't know
27:00It's hard to blame him after the Torzi on Map 1
27:03After the way Train has gone in this opening half
27:05We've just been completely lost and fooled
27:07And outplayed every sense and every step of the way
27:09Yeah
27:10Nothing positive for Team Liquid to hang their hat on
27:12Today
27:14Torzi stepping out into IV
27:16Is going to run right by Naft
27:18Who just gets himself up on top
27:19What's that about?
27:20That little yellow bin
27:22Alright guys
27:24Reign it in
27:25It's only the pistol round
27:26Yeah, they want to speed run their way into the playoffs here
27:29Jewel Beretta is out
27:30Gunslinging it away to a double
27:34Nice shot for Yimpap from Con
27:36And a follow up as well from the fin
27:39Shuei up against him
27:41And he can't do anything about it
27:42So 11-2
27:44Pistol round wins
27:45Should seal it
27:47They've actually just taken him downtown and he's got 3 kills so
27:50Yeah, he got spanked this map
27:52Let's
27:53No two butts about it
27:54He got
27:55He got a lesson today on how to play mid-train
28:00Grenade landing on towards Shuei and Nertz
28:02They're going to give it one last good go
28:03One last push forward
28:05As Nertz gets one Yimpact to trade it on Shuei
28:084v4
28:09Couple of seconds into the round
28:11Relocating out towards Ivy
28:12It looks like Naf leading the way
28:13Nertz going to join up with him
28:14Actually, we're going to butt heads here
28:15There's a push from the CT side and the T side
28:17Surgeon stepping up
28:20Naf going down
28:21And Mals flipping it back
28:23And that's it
28:24That should be it now
28:254v2
28:26Nertz is like
28:27I just walked all the way here
28:28I gotta go back?
28:29Are you kidding me?
28:30Well, you have nowhere to walk now
28:32It's all onto us
28:33Well, a fantastic series from Mals start to finish
28:36They came in with their A game
28:38And it kept up all the way through
28:39No underestimating Team Liquid
28:41No taking a round off
28:43And Mals have emphatically
28:45With a very large statement victory
28:47Booked a spot in the IEM Dallas playoffs
28:53Only if Twist loses this
28:54Only if he loses this
28:55And he will eventually lose it
28:57Alright, Mals then
28:58They come in
28:59They stop over Liquid
29:00A 2-0 fashion into the playoffs
29:03At least confirming themselves
29:04A spot in the quarterfinal
29:05So see if they can make it
29:06All the way through to the semis
29:07That is going to be the goal
29:08Out of the group stages
29:09The goal out of the group stages
29:10The goal out of the group stages
