[WCT USA] - Group A - 5 Borough v Hollywood Freerunners

This is the last group match for 5 Borough and Hollywood Freerunners. The winner is guaranteed a place last 8, the losers’ fate rests in the outcome of the final Group A match between GNF and Enso Movement.
Unfortunately, there was a referee error in this match. In Chase 13, Deyvid made a dive-tag attempt on Kyle right in front of the Mountain at about 18 seconds. One of the referees called it as a Tag so the lights went red. However, when looking back at the footage during the DTR, it was clear that a Tag did not take place. Because it was so late in the chase (i.e. with only 2 seconds left on the clock) the head referee deemed it an Evasion.
This obviously had huge implications both on the match and on the group table. It is always very unfortunately when a referee decision (or error) determines the outcome of a match but in this case we feel that the decision to award Hollywood Freerunners the Evasion was the correct one. Let us now what you think in the comments below.
Another (more positive) talking point in this match is the inclusion of Omar Zaki. After seeing his bail in their previous match (and the resulting bruise), everyone expected him to be out for the rest of the tournament. Little did we think he would be playing in the very next match!! Very big up to warrior Omar!!!

Every one of them has gotten visibly better as evaders and taggers this week. Lots more use of speed rather than waiting by the evaders, more use of the interior space by all players, more trapping by the chasers.

SO is squad outs (I really had no idea on this one but omar was injured last match and might have been out so maybe its the racket to show whos down a player and if thats the case o would do just fine)? PTS is point/placement total score (i think you should change the letter to r or just pt for points rounded if im not wrong) E+ is evasions E- evasions lost and you should probably add a few more as well TAG+, TAG- a number placement from 1-16 (its four right now but the list will get bigger when all 16 teams have been at play) and a qualifying section as well in the form of the letter Q or T as a suggestion i think it should be tallied a bit more differently as well because its kinda jumbled right now 1, W, P, PTS, T (if I'm right), E+, E-, TAG+, TAG-, SO, Q Wins should be first, then points and its correlating values, fallowed by the extra info and ending with the qualification and handicap section. the tallies need to be orderly do to people having to read them quickly when its shown on air (i had to pause to read it all because it came and went so fast) and even off air its best to have things of the same nature put next to each other for a more simplistic read.

[@kevind3974]

So what’s your plan for milliseconds disrabuts going forward. One day your going to get someone who tags right at the bell (got two this round). I’m thinking some form of overtime tiebreaker round (same round different starts) were maby the runner starts in the middle and the chaser picks a corner. Then they get five seconds to tag. No rest and a simulated start that acts as if the match was already taking place. It would allow for that tense moment of looking at the cam and seeing if the tag happened or not and if it did it would exspand that tens match up a few more seconds with even higher stakes because you have no time and no good start position creating a dash for the win. Plus it would take away that disrabutable tag (it was right on the red and green light so who’s in the right whem they both believe it’s them who is the winner) and replace it with a real tag or miss, plus if it happens again you just do another one until a decisive play is made.

What a wonderful match!!! Won’t lie, though, part of me gets deflated whenever caught up in the game and suddenly realizing 1-0 is already Match Point, when someone’s only just finally scored. 😭

[@WorldChaseTag]

The matches are so intense it sometimes feels its over too quickly. In real time there is a 30-second gap between chases which we usually edit out in the You Tube videos. If there is a DTR, it may take up to 2 minutes to review the footage and make a decision. A whole match usually lasts around 10-12 minutes but if there are multiple DTRs and a Sudden Death Chase Off, it can take up to 16-17 minutes.

Can somebody tell me why WCT is so underrated!

[@WorldChaseTag]

Ha - we're getting there slowly!!!

[@kevind3974]

It’s new, has limited broadcasting, and most importantly is a game/sport tag revolving around parkour, trikers and freeruning all of wich have their own lacking of prominence in the daily world do to how knew they are. Hell pourkour is still called a meme by some people. But don’t take it from me look up jimmy the giant he will exsplain the reasoning around this hole sun sect much better then me. The benefit is their just one viral clip and a few good events from it exsploding into prominence.

What is the announcer saying pior to each match? "zero : oh" or "zero : all" ? I don't quite get it...

[@christophminac]

"zero all"

Wow beautiful match 💪 Does anyone know when the real world championships will take place? (Exact dates against the other countries?)

[@WorldChaseTag]

We're hoping to hold WCT5 in late summer but under these conditions it's difficult to plan anything!!! (Especially something involving international travel!!).

[@belzaboul]

Is there anyway to watch this live/ uncut?

[@WorldChaseTag]

Only if you come to one of our events. We'll eventually go live once we get enough sponsors / backers.
