I honestly think that new center squares should be a weekly thing during the season. Like you have a list of 4-6 center squares that gets refreshed each week just to keep the players on their toes, without disrupting ALL their practice
@gamingpondКүн бұрын
That sounds nice, but it would require so many squares and I want them to be good, too! If they sacrifice a few “normal” squares the rest of the board will be too similar each game, I don’t think that’s worth it.

Spoilers This match was insane. I genuinely believe that the only people that can or could beat CBD this season are blanxz and NPT and I'm glad I was half right, even though npt lost he played cbd really well. the second game from this set was insane, although I think it was only close because both players did not push their lines. Also the huge time loss on sorcery only for blanxz, regardless really well played from both players. Excited to see the finals, and as always... Nice shirt domo

So if the grand finals goes the distance, the final custom center square needs to be "Kill promised consort Radhan, hitless, with a +0 weapon, hand to hand" or something absurd like that.

@@dudeimashark exactly, and I haven't watched every match ever, but there aren't usually bingos between high end players. Although it is true they would have to get it down to the last square to force it, so the rece would have to stay close enough for that.

Great match! Something to consider for finals/next season VODs is blank space at the end so the length of the video isn't a spoiler. It's not such a big deal for a Bo1 but for a Bo3 it's likely to be very clear when the person who wins game one also wins game two.

Spoilers Such an insane match. Really great decision making from Blanxz in both matches. Blanxz is just so freaking fast, man. It's insane the way he's able to grab so much early game and still have equal or more map progress. He definitely plays a little greedy and it bit him in a few games this season, but when it works he seems nigh on unbeatable. I also feel like Blanxz more than anyone has shown the power of the Backhand Blades this season. It's not as comfy early game but once you get a few regular/Scadu levels the way it scales - especially on a board like the second game with a lot of late game - makes it the obvious choice imo. CBD also making some great plays himself, a few incidents that may have turned the match, but he's just been so consistent both with his mechanical play and decision making all year, I'm not surprised both games were as close as they were. Two absolute top tier competitors. Edit: Also, not a bingus video without doubled audio in the interview. Nice shirt, btw Domo.
@roxas458721 сағат бұрын
I'd say CBD has showcased backhand blades the best. since he like....... used them in near every match and killed bosses so damn fast with occult affinity on it (later on switching to lightning since apparently mid to mid-late game it becomes better dmg wise)

This was bound to happen, unbeaten runs rarely ever go all the way to completion.

Spoilers: The reason we see so little bingos right now, is not because the players are super skilled, but because noone is pushing lines.
