Impala vs Sandstorm - Grand Final - Dreamhack San Diego 2023 - LAN 1v1

[@louisedouard322]

Sandstorm isn’t washed although he isn’t what he used to be he got alittle too comfortable taking time off while everyone else was improving, he still places high

[@orlandowho5294]

this wasnt high nvm i barely noticed this wasnt dallas

[@kid_hopman6509]

I wouldn’t say too comfortable more like finding a reason to enjoy the game again

[@TheReal4th]

Of course he was getting comfortable taking time off, that's what you're supposed to do when taking time off lmao. And he took time off without the intent of coming back, he just randomly decided to come back after missing it.

[@louisedouard322]

@@kid_hopman6509 ok ya your right I remember why he took such a long break because the state of the game then he started playing multiverses cause it was better

[@louisedouard322]

@@TheReal4th I mean ya he’s on and off not that I’m saying he should be back to his self after taking a break, I do miss saying standstorm beats out anyone, now he takes some time off and starting to find reason to enjoy the game goes in tournaments surprisingly lots of people call him washed even tho he isn’t

people saying a player is washed when theyre consistently placing high in every tourney

[@ThePikeOfDestiny]

i mean i'd get saying this when this tournament happened, but this upload is a tourney from quite awhile ago. at Dreamhack Dallas last weekend Sandstorm ate complete dirt

[@Shayce]

@@ThePikeOfDestiny Thinking a player needs to perform top 3 every tourney is unrealistic. Not a single person can do that in any setting

[@ThePikeOfDestiny]

​@@Shayce i didn't say anything about top3. expecting someone to get higher than top25 every tourney is realistic though, even for sandstorm being PR6 that's not a crazy high bar and he fumbled. i'm not saying he's not gonna make a comeback, but like people calling him washed have a reason bro

[@HickoryStickGod]

@@ThePikeOfDestiny placing poorly in a single tourney is not being washed 💀 everyone has good and bad days. he simply didnt put in enough practice

[@hugorezende199]

He was lightyears ahead some years ago, but there are too many nerds on this game now, he is still great but just need to work harder. Besides that, he enjoys exploring the game, he switch legends often (others top players not so much). He won tournaments with many diferent legends. Impala plays Kaya only.

[@strickshot]

So who cares if you are a character specialist? Impala has been playing kaya for years and sandstorm has played more broken characters than kaya.

[@CoolBroNDude]

@@strickshot let’s be honest, spear and bow are making the game look ‘easy’. Sandstorm switches legends and has variety while impala just sticks to one legend. I’m not hating on impala but you get me

El acto de enseñar es uno lleno de generosidad y compromiso. Cuando compartimos nuestro conocimiento con otros, esperamos, al menos en cierta medida, reconocimiento y agradecimiento por parte de quienes reciben nuestra enseñanza. Sin embargo, la realidad a veces nos muestra que no siempre obtenemos la respuesta que esperamos. Tomemos el caso de Impala, a quien dedicaste tu tiempo y esfuerzo para enseñarle algo importante. Puede ser una habilidad, una lección de vida o cualquier otro tipo de conocimiento. Sin embargo, su reacción de no mostrarte agradecimiento puede haber resultado decepcionante y hasta desconcertante. Es fácil sentirse herido o molesto cuando alguien no reconoce el valor de lo que hemos hecho por ellos. Pero, como mencionas, somos seres humanos y todos cometemos errores. Es importante recordar que cada persona tiene su propia forma de expresar gratitud, y que a veces, aunque no lo manifiesten abiertamente, valoran profundamente lo que hemos hecho por ellos. Quizás Impala aún no ha comprendido completamente la importancia de lo que le enseñaste, o tal vez expresar gratitud no sea su punto fuerte. En cualquier caso, es crucial no dejar que la falta de reconocimiento empañe el acto altruista de enseñar. Al final del día, lo que importa es que hiciste lo correcto al compartir tu conocimiento y ayudar a otra persona a crecer. El perdón y la comprensión son virtudes poderosas que nos permiten superar las decepciones y seguir adelante. Reconocer que todos somos imperfectos y que, a veces, nuestras expectativas pueden no cumplirse nos ayuda a mantener una perspectiva equilibrada de la situación. En lugar de centrarnos en lo que no recibimos, podemos enfocarnos en el valor intrínseco de haber dado lo mejor de nosotros mismos. Además, recordemos que el acto de enseñar no solo beneficia al estudiante, sino también al maestro. A través de la enseñanza, reforzamos nuestro propio conocimiento, desarrollamos habilidades de comunicación y fortalecemos nuestra conexión con los demás. Incluso si Impala no te agradeció, el proceso de enseñar probablemente te haya dejado lecciones valiosas y experiencias enriquecedoras. En última instancia, cultivar la empatía y la comprensión hacia aquellos que no nos agradecen es un acto de generosidad hacia nosotros mismos. Nos libera del resentimiento y nos permite seguir adelante con gratitud por la oportunidad de haber compartido nuestro conocimiento y haber hecho una diferencia, aunque no siempre se reconozca de la manera que esperamos.

[@xansWRLD.]

They nerfed tf out of scythe and gauntlets so sandstorm would never be at the top again😂

[@morkk5945]

Awesome how sandstorm got 2 score back, but in the final round I know his chance of winning is slim, because scythe lacks kill option while bow covers much more range and arguably faster than scythe

[@xansWRLD.]

Yeah tbh I knew it was over cause Impala was running for dear life and bow has a ton of range scythe not so much just sad not to see sandstorm dominate like he used to

[@strickshot]

​@@xansWRLD.Scythe has tons of range its just that sandstorm focused on gimps

@@strickshot the only ranges it has have high risk getting punished so yh we wont count them

Amazing!!

[@GodTierSonice]

Sandstorm in my opinion is still the same goat we saw him be. It’s just- Boomie and impala and all of the r worlds best was getting better overtime while sandstorm was away. That doesn’t make him a washed player. He just missed out on some mechanics brawlhalla released. Sandstorms eventually gonna win a BCX. I do have to say, his break really affected his 2v2 skills. While his 1v1 is improving greatly.

How did he do a dodge and also a gravity cancel at 7:02

[@kesseven147]

Because he is in the frame perfect for doing this gravity cancel. You can test with S-Light to D-Light to gravity cancel D-light. You ca dodge and use a gravity cancel if you are in the perfect frame.

someone count how many spear nairs impala used

[@bailief4148]

19 Nairs with spear in the first round alone. Also majority of his attacks were zoning sandstorm out or purely playing on his backfoot or countering. Im not saying that impala is a bad player, but if sandstorm wasnt forced to open almost every engagement on platform then he would win hands down
