Unbelievable Crokinole Match: AL vs Dustin - Who Will Win?

[@yungruuku]

I am tearing into a rotisserie chicken with my bare hands and this has gotta be one of the best things to watch while embracing my feral side

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

That is really strange. I have been sacrificing goats to the KZbin algorithm to get people to watch. maybe I should switch to chickens... Welcome to the channel!

[@PoormanVideo]

That series of rebound 20s was incredible - thanks for replaying those in slow-motion!

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

Right? Those rebounds were epic! Keep trying to up the production value!

[@PoormanVideo]

@@boardgamesportsnetwork I can't be sure whether Al actually murdered Iain - innocent until proven guilty - but those rebounds make me wonder whether a deal with the devil might have been made! 😂

[@ocircles738]

That 20s race was insane, such skill

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

Your support means a lot, thank you for watching and appreciating the skills!

The wild man AL will win

The wild man AL is on a winning streak!

[@RoseKnight]

I'm hoping for al this game, he's hit his darkest hour now it's time for the rising action

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

The question becomes did he grow and change enough on his hero's journey?

[@thetigerjedi7285]

Dustin has my backing this week!

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

Dustin better not let you down then! Pressure's on!

[@mdtpokemon]

That confidence from Dustin got me. Let's go Dustin!

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

Dustin's confidence is like a well-oiled machine, unstoppable! Shame his play isn't that unstoppable!

[@BeerMoneyEngine]

I'm rooting for Al in this one. I think he has potential to be a decent challenger for Billy come playoff time.

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

Al better bring his A-game, Billy is no pushover!

[@Jaba01]

Dustin is soooo focused. I believe in him ⚫

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

Dustin's focus is so intense, he's like a laser beam with a mission!

[@ChrisMartin-mz9bt]

Dustin has my vote! He said I should vote for him.

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

Well, when Dustin speaks, who are we to argue?!

[@nathan-reanimated]

Dustin has so much to win for, he's gotta go for it

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

Thank you for the support! Dustin appreciates all the encouragement.

[@twyg11]

Dustin has it this week

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

Does Dustin have the secret to success or just the best luck this week?

[@drewpeacock6411]

I COME BACK FOR BIG AL MY MAN

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

Big Al's charisma is just too hard to resist, huh? AL pulled it off!

[@FamousMortimer]

Don't think I've ever gone for Al before, so...Al!

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

Al for the win! Who knows, come playoff time you might have to pick him more often!

[@worldofcubing8242]

Rooting for my boy Al, partners got Dustin though

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

Thank you both! I am sure you will both be on the same side at some point. I ventured over to watch some of your videos. Holy, you are good. My 3x3 is sub-minute, lol, and I'm still struggling with 4x4. Seeing you do 5x5 was totally impressive!

[@worldofcubing8242]

@@boardgamesportsnetwork Aw thank you man I love to hear that! I'm still miles off of being amazing but it's a passion hobby of mine, I love pushing to see how fast I can go. I'm sure I'd be no match for your crokinole skills :) Keep up the cubing work I'm sure you can get those times down!

[@kristinemccuen8988]

I am hoping pulls this off like to his smiling face❤

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

May his smile light the way to success!

AL'S SMILING FACE

[@creinman]

Al W here. I would love to see Dustin hold it together for one here, but I just can't convince myself that it will happen. Trust me, I know this game pretty well...

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

You clearly do, you called this game right right off the bat! Who do you have in the championship?

[@billy_g_44]

Dustin is surely on top of the world in the wake of his last game's big announcement and win. I think Dustin takes this, easy

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

That was an incredible moment just to much going on outside the game for him.

[@billy_g_44]

@@boardgamesportsnetwork I was right that his engagement would affect his play, but completely off about HOW it would affect his play. This is a good learning experience

[@TrackballTerry]

Dustin took down Maddox last time so surely he has to defeat Al the murderer! Come on Dustin you gotta take this!

[@TrackballTerry]

These mid game interviews really show how horrible a person Al is hopefully the other commentators wake up from Al's tricks!

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

He can't out run the long arm of justice forever!

[@DourPrize]

Dustin don't got that dog anymore. Al in 4

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

Hard to believe but you still over estimated Dustin!

[@nordloc]

Al is all talk. I bet he's hardly murdered anybody. Dustin will win this.

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

You have a skill I will never understand!

[@colinp9099]

I always vote for AL, I believe he’s gonna be the true hero to take down Billy once and for all!

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

That's awesome! AL does seem like a true hero in the making, just don't be listing to what others are saying about AL!

[@colinp9099]

@@boardgamesportsnetwork I won't let them stray my mind from AL's justice, I know whatever he does in the end it's for the greater good.

[@SGresponse]

Dustin will leave Al in the dust.

Oh what a blunder WHAT A BLUNDER. But I guess everyone has their Yoko Ono. * I like that the shot of the game was this time both meaningful and technical. It being shotS of the game should become a thing, as a single shot is rarely that meaningful. * The "doing the shot" angle... meh - doesn't do anything for me. But it would be such a comedic mood if it were Billy. * The interludes had a better rhythm than last time and thus they worked better (even though Al is Al). * Top angle works very well for replays. Makes the replay vs. live distinction more pronounced and this improves readability of the whole video. * The "leaving the table" shots were also a welcome addition. That is of course if the celebrations and dejections match what had happened in the game. Get an extra on the crew for handshake shot - reverse-shot moments.

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

1. The shot of the game became a thing when a few commented on how abrupt the endings felt. So, it's a good idea to get a little more meaning behind the shot of the game. 2. I will play with the angle a little more, but that movement felt like an excellent spot to test it. 3. AL is AL, and Billy will be Billy, of course. but good. 4. It felt better this week, for sure. I'm still trying to find ways to get the color correction to match better; the contrast was so much higher on the overhead shot. But GoPros don't seem to have much in the way of camera correction. I ended up buying a white card so I can fight with the camera a little better in post. 5. Extra? Where am I getting this extra?!? Thank you as always!

[@renadupin]

I'm with Al

I think Dustin will take this one.

I appreciate your confidence in Dustin! And your comment as always!

Read the title as ai vs Dustin. Like how would ai play Crokinole?

[@boardgamesportsnetwork]

I fixed it, it did look a lot like ai not AL. Thank you! Welcome to the channel!

Stop playing with yourself dude

Damn it, Bradley, as someone with Milhouse as an ideal, I figured you would understand!
