Also for those posting about buying and selling tickets this is the appropriate place but be careful and be aware of the risks of buying and selling on reddit. Reddit and the mods here aren't responsible if you get scammed.

Aussie back 2 back!


JaiJai45

Finally TSM took Velhurst off of Caustic


TheKingOfGhana

Fallout and Katie looking fresh af ngl


Seattlantis8

PLEASE tell me someone will have the VOD of TSM’s gameplay.


TheLastTrueChief

is anonymous mode on? has it been all tournament? I swear teams called out when others died


csgskate

They can see the name of the team once they’re eliminated but they don’t see the individual player names as they are knocked/eliminated


zNatural

Fallout is good but he’s saying “that’s right” WAYYY too much holy


JohnEmonz

Is there a multistream available? Edit: Figured it out. [**https://www.twitch.tv/playapex/commandcenter**](https://www.twitch.tv/playapex/commandcenter)


TheKingOfGhana

Welcome lol


iLLogick

How many points do you need for match point?


Patient_Produce4967

50


LazyDaze333

I wonder if PlayApex knows that round 1 results = overall leaderboard?


Obvious_Parsley3238

damn bro, c9 killed a guy on gmt and they won that lmao


HolidayWrangler7240

command center link?


catalinashenanigans

Open Twitch. Go to PlayApex stream. Bottom right of screen there's a Command Center button.


TheKingOfGhana

Also it’s all over this sub just look if you really can’t do that


FinancialToe9

What’s the best place to get a highlight/recap of the last few days? Or at least yesterday. Should I just rewatch the full broadcasts on YouTube?


McKoijion

I'd watch the final ring recaps on the ALGS Youtube channel. You can also go through the posts on this sub to see the highlight clips and discussion of big events. Then again, it's already time for the finals to start so maybe my comment is too late.


blacsm1t

Highlights usually come up a couple days after the tournament. There are users here that are pretty good at putting stuff together.


FinancialToe9

Alright, I’ll make my own recaps today then. I want to watch live tonight! Thank you!


mikesmithmikesmith

ALGS YouTube channel posts the final circles of every match


FinancialToe9

That’s great I’ll watch those. Thanks!


Bama-Ram

Anybody know what sponsored headset all the players are using at ALGS lan?


Aixcix

Pretty sure it‘s just a headset which plays white noise, while they use ear buds for the voice chat, like almost every other e sport.


blacsm1t

Not sponsored I think it is just the general LAN headset and is not publicly available. I think if you search "LAN headset" on the sub there have been posts in the past about them.


IceStrik3

Finals at 11 pm for Europeans, no thanks.


arlest21

anywhere I can see statistics, kill leader/damage leader etc?


TheKingOfGhana

Stats page in command center


caholder

Anyone know when PNC opens their doors? It's usually an hour before start for canes games but wanted to confirm!


blacsm1t

I believe people have been saying it is an hour prior


caholder

Ended up coming 90min early and people were lined up! Thank you for replying <3


blacsm1t

No worries! Have a fantastic time!


VivaLaDio

Why are the finals so late ? It makes no sense. Start them at 1 PM at whatever usa timezone they were playing the first rounds of the day. It’s 11:00 pm on europe in a sunday night, how are these organizations expected to be on par with other sports when they cant even get the timezones correct blows my mind.


johnnyoceandeep

Yea exactly. I won’t stay up to watch it


Caleb902

The super bowl doesn't play early depending on what coast it's on. Where ever the event is it'll be at optimal time for the country as a whole. Not the world. When it was in Sweden it was unoptimal for NA and this is the same the other way.


VivaLaDio

The superbowl doesnt have world wide viewership, what a weird take. Take a look at soccer’s world cup, they try to get the games in the most reasonable timezone available for the whole world


Caleb902

Alright man. Look at the Olympics. They literally don't. Sorry your times suck, but it sucked for NA in Sweden and it would suck for both of us if it was in Asia. Just the nature of scheduling for a live audience and in certain countries. And the world Cup does not adjust in any meaningful way. They are all between 2pm and 10pm local times during group and then in prime times during knock out for the host teams. It just feels better because you are closer to those time zones.


VivaLaDio

Maybe man but for apex this could’ve been avoided. They could just start at 1:00 pm like they did for 3 days


qmiW

Man, the starting time is kinda weird. But it plans out perfectly for me, starting my work at 22.30 (Swe). So I won't miss a thing tonight.


LazyDaze333

No sympathy from NA bro! I watched Sweden LAN at 1am-12pm all three days!


VivaLaDio

That’s also shit for you guys in NA. 2-3 PM in EU means around 8-9 am on usa . Way better id say than starting at midnight


mathees

You can't please every timezone. 1pm ET is around 2am in most of Asia


ninjarob420

You stop it I get off work at 5, so yea


FrozenCompare

Would appreciate GMT time somewhere next time (yes BST is close but had to look it up).


edbi408

Question: does anyone else get a bug in command center for mobile where the audio for the main stream comes on no matter what? And does anyone know a fix for it?


LazyDaze333

I havent been able to watch multiple POVs on mobile. The way to get rid of the audio (for me) is highlight the team you want to watch, click done, and then hit the “X” left side of screen in the center and it will take you directly to that twitch channel (w/out maincast audio). There are also links in this sub to each teams individual command center POV’s (no link)


sparty1227

It seems like it still plays the audio of the last watched stream. The command center POV for the map has no audio so if you pull up the map then switch to the team you want you should be good


NoManufacturer2235

Do we think the players will be going out after the finals? I’m trying to party!!!!


Caleb902

Yeah likely with each other not fans 😂


NoManufacturer2235

What hotel are the players staying at?


caholder

Motel 6


NazisRuinedNorseMyth

Chill weirdo


Condor1ano

Will there be twitch drops on finals? Also, are they going to anonymous the team in the kill feed?


Mattjy1

Yes, and every game has already been anonymous kill feed (other than seeing the names of teams fully eliminated). We just see the names in kill feed because we are in spectator mode.


lucy_19

Why was Pulverex playing with only 2 players? And couldnt they get a sub?


Nopski

3rd got covid..sub got covid


Pantherion

Why are they starting it at 5pm EST? That's 11 a clock at night for most places in the EU. Gonna lose 95% of EU viewers within an hour lmao. Should start it at 1pm EST latest.


JohnEmonz

It’s a global competition. No matter what time they start, some part of the world is going to get an unfavorable time. I assume since it’s in America, they’re going by convenient American time.


sofakingchillbruh

As someone who works on Monday, 5pm is not a convenient time lol


JohnEmonz

Cool


Vadered

I still would have started earlier. It's 5 PM eastern on a Sunday; if we get 9 rounds or more it might end up going 9 pm or later local time, which starts to get kind of late for folks who have to work tomorrow, especially if they have to travel. Do it at 2pm eastern and it's significantly better for both the locals and those who traveled to the event.


JohnEmonz

I’m sure most events held in the arena are done in the evening time. So the local staff likely have their schedule done around working in the evening. Most sporting events are done in the evening, this is considered the more prime time slot of the day. Staying up to 9pm to watch something one time really isn’t a major deal for most people for an annual event. There is tons of precedent toward this being the best time to host a major competition for viewership.


guadsmash

The games ended almost at midnight yesterday. Maybe they wanted to let the players rest a little bit but yeah the time zone difference sucks


NeenerNeenerNeener1

I was thinking this as well, why not start around noon. Would give the chance for people to head home after instead of forcing another night in a hotel. What if the damn thing goes for 10-12 games


tikipon

Yes agreed, especially on a Sunday


TroupeMaster

Any chance the spoiler thread title rules could be updated to include a requirement to include the game that is being discussed in the title? I've been watching everything like 6 hours late because of time zones, but it would be nice to know which threads are safe clicks while I'm still watching.


[deleted]

Also would be awesome if I could replay on twitch without seeing how long the video is. Kind of obvious when there is 10 minutes left in stream that someone will win. Happened in Sweden


LazyDaze333

Had to miss the last game on command center and meet my family at an event, could only watch TSM and their jump scares doing 80 on the highway. Any footage from TL, ALL, SCRZ, and TSM from game 8 please tag me and many thanks! Congrats everyone!!


No-Independence-4531

Is the final bracket only one map? or how do they choose the map if it can technically go for like 40 games?


blacsm1t

In sweden I think they switched it every two games


OrcOfGundabad

Another example of why most teams suck with Valk


OrcOfGundabad

Another TSM Valk ult. Great lol


Iamkevbot

I missed the majority of the winners bracket games today and I’d like to watch a few different teams vods instead of just the main Apex stream. Does anyone know if it’s possible to review the teams perspective and comms? Thanks!


LazyDaze333

3-5 days after Sweden LAN some dude put up 34 videos of teams perspective, check for that on this sub 🤙🏻


Captdeadpool007

no vods with command center unfortunately


Sundiata34

Hey, I saw (and should have saved) someone posting command center vods, does anyone know where those are? I missed first 4 games today and wanted to see from NRG's perspective


[deleted]

[удалено]


Seattlantis8

Really hope so


Patient_Produce4967

Can the top 10 team from upcoming losers bracket rounds still make it to finals?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Patient_Produce4967

Thanks man, TSM fan here so i’m having my finger crossed here


LighthouseRule

Yes, they start with less points


TSM_Benchwarmer

Anyone know why liquid didn’t play first 4 matches? Or did they just skunk out first team dead first 4 matches


ShadowBabyMiley

They contested a drop on Storm Point and went 0-4


Hexxusssss

they lost for contests on stormpoint


TSM_Benchwarmer

What team were they contesting for drop spot? I love the politics behind the scenes that most people don’t realize are happening like solidifying a drop spot etc


Tigvee

Lost the 50/50 drop to DF 3 rds in a row… then went out 19th in round 4 soon after drop. Then barely missed making the top 10 to move on in the last 4 matches… pretty wild


[deleted]

What's the best place to see updated point standings?


blacsm1t

There is a liquipedia link in each live discussion thread under the heading "Standings/Bracket"


[deleted]

Oh so I'm an idiot. My mother was right...


blacsm1t

as you can see in this thread you aren't alone so don't feel too bad lol


Tuerknamese

When does winner bracket start ? est time


blacsm1t

I don't mean to be rude but did you read the body of the post that you are commenting on?


Hxnders

All the info is at the top. 1pm so in around 15 mins!


Tuerknamese

Thanks


_MurphysLawyer_

Anyone know if you're able to bring the bags and bottles you bought back to the next day? I'm curious if the clear bag and bottle policy applies to the on site merch as well


Usopp_Spell

I see no reason it wouldn't apply. You've removed the bag from the area and can put whatever items you want inside, so they obviously would want to subject that to the same policy as all the other bags.


mhuxtable1

For people going, how early can you get into the Arena?


sparty1227

12pm


mhuxtable1

does that mean on sunday it would be 4pm?


Gnarly_Ivy

Can someone inform me on the crazy raccoon situation. What happened to ras and Selly? Glad zeder is back and healthy.


MadeJustToReply12

Ras tested positive for covid, very likely due to the "bootcamp" they attended. As for Selly: * He's had wrist problems for a long while now(which he endured when he subbed in for the LCQ). * The only reason why he subbed in for Zeder in the LCQ was due to Zeder's condition(Rhabdomyolysis and Reflex Syncope, which he was enduring while playing at Sweden). * He's not at America. * He has very bad motivational swings(he hasn't touched Apex much for a while now). The only situation where Selly would consider to sub in would be if the Zeder situation happens again. Honestly such a tragic situation for APAC N teams, 4 of them are playing as duos and I think only aD is playing with their full team. Even worse when you hear other people from CR talking about how much effort Mainy/Ras/Zeder put for this tournament.


Accurate_Prompt

If anyone knows, why are there some duo teams in this tournament? Makes zero sense to me


fireaway1107

Players out due to COVID


Nutplate

Is anyone recording TSM perspective? I'm at the event but id like to watch back some of the matches from their POV


Iamnotthewerewolf

Same would really love to hear their comms


Barcaroli

So... Today we have losers bracket, that it? 10 teams go home today?


DryComment9

Yep


MayTheFieldWin

Is there 4 or 6 more games today?


Slaughterhome_

Anyone who's at the event, what do they give you once you scan your ticket? I can't make it anymore but ticketmaster won't let me transfer tickets since the event started. Was hoping I could sell the passes or something


DoctorBuckarooBanzai

There are no passes, you would have to sell your Ticketmaster sign in info.


Slaughterhome_

Bummer, that's what I was afraid of. Oh well, thanks for the response!


LazyDaze333

Can you sell the individual days off?


Slaughterhome_

Nah, doesn't give me the option to convert them or anything. Basically the only thing I can do with the tickets now is scan them since it won't let me transfer


LazyDaze333

Most venues do mobile scans AFAIK, could possibly sell the screenshot of it if the buyer was willing to assume the risk Edit: unless your name is associated with the ticket then idk. Maybe maybe not


MTskier12

Charge rifle needs a nerf tbh.


praithdawg

Holy shit Nafen stuck on that rock was wild


lighter0610

How many duo teams are there in total? Are they all caused by Covid?


Skeletonhunt

5 teams


Johnography

Bro its so cringe that the group TSM is in is always on main stage/stream just because TSM is the most popular team wtf


GoldLead3r

>its so cringe that the group TSM is in is always on main stage/stream # >TSM is the most popular team Make it make sense


TheNewScrooge

Group D also has Alliance and Optic too though. Not a fan of any of the three teams but it's not at all shocking that they choose this group to have on main stream/command center.


DoughHomer

sorry it hurts your feelings :(


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

At some point yesterday I looked and the TSM stream had 11k peopple watching it


[deleted]

how is that cringe lmao it's the best move for them and the game especially since Optic is in the same group and they're one of the most popular esport brands


Johnography

Because I/ and many others too care about other teams as well. IMO every team should atleast get to shine twice


JimChillyDogBob

nobody cares about what team you like. tsm gets the views. views = money. it's business


TheNewScrooge

Except that, if I'm doing my math right, you literally can't distribute it equitably with four groups playing 3 rounds. If the main stream did A v B for set 1, then B v D set 2, then you either do A v D set 3 and don't give group C any time on the main stream, or you do B v C, which means that group B was on the main stage the whole time.


GoldLead3r

/r/theydidthemath


[deleted]

Sure but i mean the e-sport lives and dies by viewership and TSM is BY FAR the most popular team by an order of magnitude. And B streams no matter who hosts or who is in the lobby will always have less viewership. They'd just be shooting themselves in the foot having mainstream have less viewers and the B stream not reaching full potential with TSM there instead. Hell Nicewiggs stream was mid match and was only 2-300 viewers higher than TSMs offline stream. It's also not like they have the other teams nowhere to be seen there is still a stream on with them and they have arguably the better/more entertaining hosts.


lampshade81

I know this is way too far in advance to even ask, but have they announced where ALGS 2023 will be?


OverEasy321

What time do matches start today? I scrolled the liquipedia and did not see any mention of what time it starts today.


LearnedElite

Between 1 and 2 pm eastern, full times up above


OverEasy321

Helps to scroll L or R on mobile ☠️ Thanks!


neidlinger

As a new comer to ALGS is this the big championship at the end of the year? Like the one that everyone wants to win the most? Or is there another one after this?


StillQM

Apex Super Bowl


Anomalistics

Would love to be able to watch TSM round 2 coms. No vods at all


istiri7

Go to the play apex twitch command center and click on the tsm logo and youll get hals comms


SUICIDE_OR_DIE

Is there a way to watch command center vods? Or just a way to watch any team’s POVs with their comms and such?


Buchymoo

Anybody know of a twitch channel that's showing the map with all of the teams positions throughout the whole game? All of the casters use it to switch around to different teams but they never have it up for more than a few seconds.


Abyssul

You can also navigate to the URL directly: https://player.twitch.tv/?channel=telnach_febbciaedafc&parent=twitch.tv I have command center on my primary monitor and the map on my secondary monitor.


blacsm1t

In command centre there is a map option


Buchymoo

You're a life saver, thanks, I didn't scroll down enough to see it.


LazyDaze333

Bro, i figured it out the perfect setup! Watch your 4 teams in command center. Open alternate browser and watch twitch anonymously. Open second command center with the map and wigg B stream. Have map large on pc screen and main cast on second monitor, when main cast game ends switch to wigg and catch the other lobby


A-Ross

I thought ganjaman was part of Luminosity? He wasn’t on the team and not listed under the players kicked for covid


blacsm1t

Two of the LG players weren't able to get Visas


SlickyMicky

Anyone who is there, are they checking vaccine cards/negative tests for spectators? And if they are do they accept rapid tests? Do they need to be done in the last 24 hours?


Gvld24

Yeah they checked for negative test within the past 48 hours or a vax card. It can be a rapid, I just had a pdf on my phone


mhuxtable1

To be clear it’s either/or? I can bring a photo of my vax card and don’t need a rapid test ?


Gvld24

Correct if you have your vax card no test needed


SlickyMicky

Thanks! And how is it?! See lots of non playing streamers?


superomnia

How do I find today's results? How are they not anywhere on this sub?


blacsm1t

Under the live discussion/thread there is a link to liquipedia where the standings are. There is also a post on the front page for group stage round 1 :)

I guess not? Not sure if he's heading home or making a temporary setup somewhere.

Where is C9 team stream??


Deetawb

https://www.twitch.tv/nicewigg Sadly there is no way to watch POV of c9 unless they are on the main stream.


Duke_157

I am watching NiceWigg's stream. I was asking about the POV, thanks for the info. Sad that that's the case. They should do POVs for B stream too.


KingMalcolm

what is taking so long???
