THE 200 SECOND LONG DUNGEON STANDOFF!

[@SoImCoga]

Alf is still very much a part of ZETA. He has taken a break from the scene due to both physical and mental health reasons, but he has expressed he still loves the game and the people involved. It is unclear when he will be back (if at all), and will he ever take up the hunter role, though. But anyway, best wishes to him and a speedy recovery! As to the new ZETA Hunter, MikoMelody! He was an amateur player (mostly known from his performance in last year’s IVT), so this IJL is his debut in the pro scene. Not only is this his debut, but he’s going in blazing as the solo hunter for JP’s best team, and he does wonders. He’s also expressed how he’s a big fan of AXIZ’s Ryz, so I think it’s kind of neat that in this set MikoMelo was able to sorta “battle it out” with his idol. He’s currently also the youngest member of ZETA.

[@JeremyLuna-h3m]

thank you for the information friend :D

[@aal9063]

Awww cute

[@ricecooker9024]

ZETA Alf’s recent Twitter post says that he’s currently hospitalized! Hope he gets well soon 😭🫡

[@Zenji858]

Same!

[@TrashArtist89]

What happened to him??😭

[@Vazuzzu]

​@@TrashArtist89 could be selfharm

[@nixgarden]

@@TrashArtist89 Stress and being mentally unwell :(

[@aushiii479]

I love how this entire tournament day, Zeez was completely worried about Kznk like the whole time, lol. Most genuine Kznk fan.

[@phvnt0msail]

29:59 kazuneko even touched a cipher there! because aeroplanist gives a 2% decoding speed buff when he touches a cipher, the optimization... he's so goated

[@idrilasquill]

It's so cute to me how takakou and mkmldy laugh at the end of the match, we love to see players having fun even in competitive spaces

[@dianamorales2608]

I love how Takakou didn't even bother struggling, he was laughing his ass off 😭😭🤣

[@st4rsukh]

the thumbnail reminded me of priestess vs smiley match 😭

[@simirean]

10:23 hes not stepping away permanently as of right now, but his announcement stated that hes stepping away for a bit until he recovers, after which he can decide if he wants to return or not. his personal struggles + the ivs stress + ppl bashing him online made it very hard for him, but i rlly hope that hes able to get better whether he returns to zeta or not ;; ps mkmldy’s name is pronounced miko melody, but hes also called negi! it’s a bit funny that you call him mk actually since thats a whole different player lol

[@LuiMarina]

@@simirean for some reason in my head in assumed his name stood for “milk moldy” Miko melody makes more sense 😭

[@kawaineko8518]

38:31 AXIZ was arguing on how the coord could get dungeon and someone suddenly said 'I'm on the pallet camp...' and the coord burst out with 'PALLET???' 😂😂

[@luvylu1]

That dungeon match 38:15 the psychologist made a big mistake leaving instead of WiFi healing the coordinator. The blink wouldn’t have been back by the time detention runs out and if she healed the coord naiad will be forced to make the first move instead of waiting it out and risk coord being healed

[@frederickburger]

wifi healing💀💀 thats a bluetooth

[@liakit790]

41:00 i like how both are smiling in the situation some things never change... Coordinator and naiad sticker when? -moonlit riverpark, where the clutch for the dungeon is real- IRONICALLY THIS IS WHY THEY ADDED THE DUNGEON RESPAWN, IF THEY DIDN'T WE WOULD HAD BEEN THERE FOR A LONG TIME

[@teddypickr]

I completely forgot that the dungeon can change locations on its own without Percy and I was surprised that it takes 3 minutes for it to change…I thought it was 2 minutes because that’s how long Postman’s dungeon letter lasts 😭😭

[@tiantian-qqx]

welcome back 400 min+ smiley priestess moonlit match 💜

[@simirean]

i rlly hope mkmldy can do good throughout ijl!!! hes a rookie but already seems really good

[@twiyuch]

I was really exited to see alfs gameplay and didn't hear about the news until now 💔 i hope alf can recover and get into tournaments again someday. He really inspired me with his gameplay for a long time.

[@ExtraMail447]

I saw this live that day and it was so anticlimactic in the end the whole chat was laughing so hard

[@Ren0000_.]

I hope alf gets better and also wish him the best! Have an amazing break Alf even if it's a long time or forever, you're an amazing hunter! Health is important YAYAYAYA!

[@takashyhan3215]

Omg i found Alf's post on Twitter and it's so sad omg! I can't even imagine the stress he had to ho thru just to meet everyone's expectations. It's really sad tbh that he couldn't enjoy playing even in tournaments because of judgy people :( i really hope he comes back better than before😭🙌

[@ミチコ-p8b]

Wait what happened to him?

[@takashyhan3215]

@ミチコ-p8b As stated in the official post, we have decided to take a break from the Autumn IJL. I'm not sure what I'll do after autumn. I started having trembling and palpitations before and after games, and my heart hurts every time I take a deep breath. I think these symptoms, which started six months ago, are the reason I can't play to my full potential, and at some point, I started having these symptoms even during practice. I thought I should prioritize getting treatment and getting better under the care of a doctor, rather than playing in this condition. As a hunter, my self-blame has gotten stronger, and I can no longer bear the pressure, tension, and slander. In order to heal, I will be undergoing treatment and will be stepping down from being a hunter. I'm very sorry to everyone in ZETA for suddenly becoming like this, and of course to everyone who supports me. I especially want mkmldy, the new member of ZETA, to forget about me and play his own game without thinking too much about winning consecutive championships or victories! I'm rooting for ZETA to win first and foremost. I won't be in front of you all for a while, but I'd like to give back to you all in some way if there's anything I can do to give back to you all. Sorry for this sudden announcement. Thank you for your support!

[@takashyhan3215]

@ミチコ-p8b I feel so sorry for everyone because I'm always holding ZETA back when he competes in the world. I don't have the mentality to withstand the pressure, expectations, and strain that come with having consistently produced results for several years now. When the game started, I couldn't stop shaking and my heart was beating fast. I couldn't play as I usually do and I was afraid to play Identity V. That's why I was planning to retire in the summer. But I decided to continue because I felt sorry for my teammates and wanted to be the best in the world. For the past few months, I've been unable to play the way I wanted to in practice, and my mental health has been declining every day. I have been able to get this far thanks to my friends who believed in me and the people who supported me. However, I no longer feel like I can bear the countless abusive DMs or my own incompetence. Now say whatever you want. I couldn't do anything at such an important moment. I'm so sorry to my teammates and those who supported me. I won't be on social media for a while. Sorry. Thank you so much for your support, IVS.

[@takashyhan3215]

@ミチコ-p8b these are the announcements that he made on Twitter. I used translate since it was originally in Japanese, so sorry if some wording is jank

[@LuiMarina]

Zeez is so funny bro.. idk if it’s just me but that “talking like porky pig” part had me laughing for minutes straight. It’s so funny to me help me idk why

[@Yaemimi]

i really hope alf gets better soon, I heard he's in the hospital. He worked so hard and accomplished so much, I hope he has a super speedy recovery and is doing better than ever in no time 😞

[@TueTranPhamGia]

I really enjoyed mkmldy's gameplay so far, his movement looks so satisfying

[@Lobotomeowww]

9:05 arm singer

[@sadisticc]

in my head i pronounce mkmldy's name as "mkay m'lady"...

[@ilovekoromaru]

coord had flywheel and a dream 😭😭

[@Zenji858]

I just finished watching this and naiad match was crazy bro? 😭 I hope alf recovers soon I only found out about this now 😓

[@azelai345]

24:15 sometimes prospectors will toss a magnet when they're at max capacity and not in chase so that they can start recharging another one while having magnets on the field, seems pretty risky vs. shadow though

[@kyl-E]

Ok but this thumbnail goes crazyyyyyyy Great thumbnail zeez!

[@Matthiaslover69]

46:40 first ever time this patty A tier has been played in tournament how joyous

[@floppietime]

They should make a Naiad and Coord spray now with a dungeon in the middle !!

[@Kaazant]

0:42 bro is onto nothing😭

[@Crystal_ITS]

Nahh we’re gonna get another dungeon nerf😭

[@Matthiaslover69]

41:59 AM I DREAMING??? ENCHANTERESS MY QUEEN??? OH MY GOD IM USED TO MATTHIAS IN TOURNAMENT BUT MY NUMBER ONE FAV PATRICA DORVAL THE ENCHANTERESS OH MY GOD PATTY I LOVE YOU

[@xandelta5306]

thankyou for making the video

[@dtiamera]

Moral of the story: Don’t chase Kznk. Remember Kakaka.. don’t chase Kznk..

[@ianstudio1330]

you can call my new boy Miko or Negi I cant held my laugh when u spell out his government name lmao

[@azelai345]

welcome back dbd hatch standoffs

[@SapphireYuna]

40:10 well... yes but no cuz dungeon location changes after some time so yeah the pressure is mainly on the survivor in that situation because if dungeon location is changed the hunter just wins that. Fun fact for people who didn't know that because you won't always see it happen. That was really something tho. We don't often get to see something like that.

[@shopowner]

im so early to this vid omg this is magical

[@diekusseidv]

the last round oml mkmldy needs the tie Ann😭

[@unravelmuffin]

COORDINATOR THUMBNAIL 🔥🔥🔥

[@NapstabIook]

Stand off like that is the reason I play this game Cowboy stand off ahh fight

[@Matthiaslover69]

The coord lowkey wanted some of the 10 hour priestesses nachos

[@regretfu7772]

Mary and Yhdra used to be the most picked hunters back then and its kinda weird seeing no Mary now😂

[@emilmesmersbiggestfan]

just had an argument with my mother but hell yeah an hour long tournament video😈😈🔥🔥🔥 I love you zeezle plis don't die

[@abcdefghilihgfedcba]

25:36 that’s not Borrowed Time, that’s Escape (on the path to BT). I think BT gives you a 50% dash speed boost for like 2 seconds…

[@crystalkz721]

I miss Alf bro 😭

[@sonotnana]

1:05:46 THE GANG FROM WITCH 😯

[@FancySquilliam]

Watching this after getting my braces in is an experience 😭 (COORDINATOR MENTION IN THUMBNAIL??)

[@muntycarlo]

Bruh i wanted zeta to win so bad 😭😭😭

[@harikoyune7253]

The irony of this match where both of the hunter use COA skin and the one that use GG skin won while Gr is the team that always want to craw on that COA champions cup for like 3 years row but always get stopped by GG. Do not let Gr watch this match lmao

[@mynamedontmatterowo7191]

watching zeez fangirl over kznk is me with comp player

[@Ganji00]

10 HOURS MATCH!(!??!

[@香水不打折]

I'm wondering if Lim and Kznk are still friends since they were once teammates on SST.

[@香水不打折]

and now they're going against eachother but on different team.

[@kinari4488]

Coordinator is so broken

[@player-kz5nm]

Alf must really blame himself alot for that match against gr

[@rikuu3283]

zeez can you react to the 10 clown vs priestess match

[@ZeezVovGeeV]

Unironically I would but no footage of it exists sadly

[@vglchannel2494]

I missed bq match in tournament 😢

[@sadly2081]

HELLO HELLO HELLO HELLO HELLO HELLO HELLO HELLO HELLO HELLO HELLO HELLO HELLO HELLO HELLO

I have a feeling you should cut these into 2 parts. 1hr on 1 video seems too long for most people

[@josephiissuperduperawesomee]

ZETA should have played joseph in the last round 100%

[@opalgarcia2542]

Definitely not watching this while making disciple costume

[@Mulanii6]

How…HOW DO YOU KITE FOR 200 SECONDS FOR DUNGEONE

[@always_mangle]

kazuneko was robbed in third round second half 😭but I guess it's canon that akechi farmed ren on his first chair

[@angelwings7466]

Hi zeez

[@Silkimoth]

Mk prolly could’ve drawed that if he just killed the coord instead of going for forward

[@Riffrup]

cool

[@idkmyusernamehalp3021]

I haven’t watched it yet but if it’s a naiad I hope hunter loses the dungeon match up

[@frances714]

Its zeta as always

[@SillybanIDV]

@@Ash.xr.0 it kinda seems like you care if you took time to comment this 😭🙏🏾

[@Ash.xr.0]

@@SillybanIDV why is it kinda true..

[@Mikmikail]

I don't watch any tournaments anymore, I always saw them even at 3 in the morning, but now hunters almost never win, it's so boring to always see survivors win, sometimes they are not even good at kiting, it is simply the cipher rush
