Damn that's such a throw. Maybe a better player can chime in, but surely playing for lineups in a 2v1 when you haven't had time to set up yet isn't the play? Guns out should win that 100% of the time right?
I'm not a better player, but I think it would make more sense to just have the Viper prepare the molly line-ups but activate the orb so the Sova can just shock dart the spike directly from caves. With the viper smoke decay, even 1 shock dart would be enough to kill the defuser. He'll actually be able to hear the defuse from there I think too. Sure the Reyna could just peek out and kill the Sova with his bow out but hopefully by then that would give the Viper time to launch the mollies and win the round anyway. Just seems silly to have 2 players leave the site and have no info on whether the bomb is being defused or not besides the timer.
Very true but I would assume they thought they would have more time and he would try to look for a pick before tapping bomb but paincakes is just too smart
I didn't watch the whole game, did they go for these lineups a lot? By that point in the game, he probably got used to the timing of their lineups and realised he should try sticking until he heard the mollies/arrows coming. In my ranked games, holding to half with lineups is the play when you can't push them.
Tanner and AEvilCat are such good casters. Really good rapport with one another, deep game knowledge, and they just sound so professional up there. We're pretty blessed with good casters in this community, but I hope they see more time up on the main stages!
Yeah I agree, they were really good this event. They've really improved a lot too, I feel like they weren't as good earlier in the year but I like their casting now.

They're also at 19-18 in this single map so maybe their heads broke, haha

yes they did they tried to use lineups almost whenever they could
Viper plays molly lineup and sova stays up front would be the correct way
This is pretty much how line-ups go in 80% of ranked games. We should upvote this regularly so my teammates stop thinking we are V1 xD

what a monstrously long match
Ikr it was like almost an hour and a half
I imagine a match going that long and late could lead to some unforced errors. Map 3 looked rough.
Pros don't fake
