Happy you're filling the void for 'ReaperEN' esque videos. Would like to see an analysis on Astralis at SI23 and maybe how SSG took down G2 in Copenhagen.
thank you!! a really great video, would like to see more of that in the future since theres nobody else doing this type of videos. And your voice is also really calm so you can understand everything you say. perfect, keep going.
the first r6 event I watched was the last 6I because I've liked g2 in other esports. i just started playing after and have about 30 hours of gameplay and no map knowledgelol, this video was super cool and helpful to make me understand what was actually happening during the major. glad this got recommended to me, great video!
20sec meta was my fav meta, people actually used their gadget in ranked n actually talked bout what they gonna do. Now everyone running around ash n iana with 1.5x and very attacker sided meta.
This reminded me back then Reaper would do a few ranked games on stream. And there come a remarkable idea that as he said, he would shoot every window and door and just applies pressure on anywhere his team ain’t present to help pinching. On a side note, this G2 forms strat also seems familiar to a BDS Oregon base attack an yr ago which Reaper covered. Of course the way two teams took map control is obviously different, and G2 did master their own way (which also seems better than the BDS way I mentioned as it’s less relying on solo gunfights)
This is a type of strategy that can really only be used at this level of play. Most players cannot take solo pushes into the map and stay alive long enough to rendezvous with others in order to execute plans. Most are dying in the 1v1 gunfight with a roamer, or, they're being pushed by 2 def ops and stalled. Most also don't place cams to gain intel and push in. I love watching this level of play, so thanks for the breakdown!
Wish I'd come across this video sooner, great stuff! Bit of advice just for pacing, this video would benefit from more directly integrating your "thesis" about melusi's nerf into your 3rd point. At the 5:30 mark when you show top-down view of oregon that visualises each player's position, you could maybe explain how placing a banshee in certain positions would prevent G2 from executing. Alternatively, you could've refocused your "thesis" to "Fake Pressure" which is also a nice click-baity sounding concept that could draw viewers in. I just think the melusi point feels a bit lost, and at the 12 minute mark when you try to recap its significance, people have already forgotten your examples and its harder to link the two. Definitely subbing, looking forward to more content!
This is fantastic feedback, thank you for sharing it with me. As it’s my first video I know things aren’t perfect so I appreciate you pointing this out to me so I can improve for future videos 🙂
this is amazing one could add that it is also making the viewer think, that there is no push and just disjointed players. and thats why they are misunderstood.
It is endeed a really good strategy, G2 just created a new meta on SI. Those split attacks on some bombsites are just unstoppable most of the times, if the defense chooses to focus on side of the map they have to give up another areas, but if they decide to do the opposite and keep map control the attack can just put all the pressure in a single spot and break through the defense either way
Seeing this G2 roster completely different from the days when it was the Penta Sports roster when I played the game is crazy. I feel old or something lol
Very nice video overall! The only criticism i have is that in at some points in the video you could have put better video material to support/show your points
Thank you for your passion Excuse me, would you analyze how W7M use their drones in video? Their dronning skill is incredible. I want to know how they works in detail
Do you feel like the melusi nerf went too far? Considering now there are so many way to destroy gadgets safely it feels like the initial nerf has been compounded with emps, gonne 6, Kali, brava drones, the nokk buff. If you were to change melusi how would you do it?
Melusi’s biggest nerf was Brava, and now Fenrir has put the nail in the coffin for her. If attackers really wanted to attack an area then they’d just 6th pick to a Brava or Flores. Fenrir is now better in every way than Melusi so she’s completely useless
Make her a 2 speed again at the least, or keep her 1 speed and give her a 1.5x. I actually have no idea what you could do to the gadget because Fenrir’s gadget is just so much better, it’s actually hard to say without making the Banshees too overpowered again.
I'm not so sure about this analysis. You said the gadget was what made Melusi strong right? The devs didn't nerf the gadget itself (at least in your video it mentions none of that), they just nerf the operator's movement. While you could say, "nonetheless we see less melusi because of it". Then the answer would be to use more melusi to counter this meta, right? The banshee itself is still able to counter this meta.
They didn’t nerf the gadget but making an operator 1 speed is enough to deter people from playing her, ESPECIALLY when that 1 speed only has access to 1x scopes. The 1.5x is objectively superior. Player comfort comes before necessity a lot of the time in siege because it’s an fps at the end of the day.
Very good video but you’re giving TOO MUCH credit to Melusi and that single nerf. The meta changed to Defenders contesting and aggressive fragging leaving attackers at a numbers disadvantage. A single melusi nerf didn’t do this. G2 just adapted to succeeding in this meta faster than others. It’s also criminal that you didn’t mention Fabian’s coaching. Alem4o is a great player but him and G2 were struggling until Fabian showed up to coach them.
Appreciate the feedback. I understand that Melusi wasn’t the reason they won, but siege is a game of consistency and small margins. Less Melusi = more success in this playstyle. I didn’t mention Fabian as his influence is already widely regarded, I wanted to give focus to what viewers don’t always see/know inside of a game.
I know a lot of people are comparing you to Reaper right now and I get that you are trying to fill in the void but keep this up and you are gonna be bigger! I forgot how much I missed comp siege analysis 🥲
Bro missed reaper eu so much, he became him.
That's the aim!! Filling the void of his competitive Siege videos
@@kangrukenny Thank god. May your pillow always be the best temperature
Now we need Kenny to get into digests and we are set
@@ASR6 bloody hell that’s a whole different kettle of fish that idk I’m prepared for 😂
I have never read anything more real
This is how R6 is meant to be played and understood. With intellect and analysis. Love it.
Glad you enjoyed!!
I loved reaper sm, can’t wait for more videos like this🤠
I can’t wait to make more either 😅
I know reaper isn't coming back but, I miss this content tbh. Hopefully this becomes a regular thing.
I’ll try my best to make it this regular content!!
What happened to Reaper?
@@AuxiliaryPantherhe just stopped making videos
@@kangrukenny ah, I watched his last video. Hope you get more enjoyment from it!
This is amazing. We need more content like this. Keep the amazing work!
Thank you for the kind words!!
Happy you're filling the void for 'ReaperEN' esque videos. Would like to see an analysis on Astralis at SI23 and maybe how SSG took down G2 in Copenhagen.
That was the plan to fill his void!! I’ll add those two to my list of ideas ty 🙂
Great to see Reaper's legacy live on. Keep the videos coming!
I will keep them coming!! #WeMissReaper
thank you!! a really great video, would like to see more of that in the future since theres nobody else doing this type of videos. And your voice is also really calm so you can understand everything you say. perfect, keep going.
Really nice words, thank you!! I've got a few ideas lined up for future videos too🙂
@@kangrukenny no problem bro. im really excited about your future videos ;)
the first r6 event I watched was the last 6I because I've liked g2 in other esports. i just started playing after and have about 30 hours of gameplay and no map knowledgelol, this video was super cool and helpful to make me understand what was actually happening during the major. glad this got recommended to me, great video!
Happy to always see new people get into Siege, it’s such an engaging and entertaining game. Thank you!!
Phenomenal video, I really hope you do more content like this
shut up
Glad you enjoyed, I do have some more ideas lined up for future videos!!
You earned yourself a sub with this one! I absolutely love watching PL teams attack well, and having breakdowns like this makes it more accessible
So glad you enjoyed!!
20sec meta was my fav meta, people actually used their gadget in ranked n actually talked bout what they gonna do. Now everyone running around ash n iana with 1.5x and very attacker sided meta.
Yeah unfortunately ranked is ranked :(
Great in depth analysis all of us siege diehards love and have missed since Reaper stopped posting
Thank you!! Glad you enjoyed
Great video mate!
Thank you!!
Id love to see these sort of operator/meta analyses more
I aim to release more soon!!
Fabian my goat
Great video!
Looking forward for more.
Glad you enjoyed it!!
Keep up the good work man 💪🏼
Thank you, will do!!
Wow, this is actually really cool! Cant wait for more videos like this
Glad you enjoyed it!!
Amazing editing amazing scriot amazing everything. Awating for more good content
Thank you for the kind feedback!! I’ll be making some more soon after the Major 🙂
Goodjob making this video man keep it up 💯🔥
Thank you!!

Yeah, this idea isn't new, other teams have played like this before but I feel like G2 have mastered it the best in recent times

Siege at the highest level is such a beautiful game. You're welcome for the breakdown!!
great video its actually so entertaining like Reapers vids
Glad you enjoyed Swiss!!
Wish I'd come across this video sooner, great stuff!

Exactly, so many mind games it’s great
Great analysis
Thank you!!
Fun fact: Ö sounds like the "uh" in bruh.

Exactly, they constantly keep the defenders guessing
Seeing this G2 roster completely different from the days when it was the Penta Sports roster when I played the game is crazy. I feel old or something lol
Yeah haha, the roster has moved on a lot since then
Great video , subbed!
Glad you enjoyed, thank you!!
*another appreciative comment about how good and welcome this video is*
Appreciate it ty🙂
Great video!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed!!
Very nice video overall! The only criticism i have is that in at some points in the video you could have put better video material to support/show your points
Thank you for the feedback, I’ll take this onboard for the next one!!
great stuff! keep them coming
Glad you enjoyed!! I’ve got a few more ideas lined up 🙂
You earned my sub with 1 vid
Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed!!
This is a more calculated version of a strategy called “Quick Play”
There goes my hero
This kinf of just feels like ranked.
It's a meta that focusses on being aggressive, like ranked, but the team synchronises on one goal all the time, to create consistency.
banger vid keen for more
Glad you enjoyed it!!
just as an aside, ex-tenstar looked really promising in the EU LCS for the blast major 👏
Much appreciated!! Hope to come out even stronger next LCQs 😈
And they have Fabian 3 time god
The new reaper!
That’s the idea!!
Subscribed, Liked. Awesome.
Glad you enjoyed, thank you!!
I like ur analysis 👍
Glad you liked it!!
im bout to sub
beast as video
Glad you enjoyed it!!
Awesome vid plz make more like this
Glad you enjoyed!!
This is like watching a sky sports premier league match analysis 😅
Haha yes very true!!
i really enjoyed this video so glad youtube recommended good stuff
I’m glad you enjoyed!!
great video!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed!!
I was expecting a strat for using Melusi's reduced range lol.
Here's a video I desperatley need: What's your philosophy towards winning the map veto?
I’ll add it to the list of ideas!!
good vid bro this can help my team out alot
Glad I could help!!
@@kangrukenny we litterly been dominating our scrims cause of this vid ty !
@@Costa1lolglad to hear!! Keep dominating 🙂
Love it
Glad you enjoyed it!!

Their dronning skill is incredible.
I want to know how they works in detail
I will add it to my list of ideas!!
If I know corectly doki is the IGL of G2
Alem4o definitely is the IGL for G2, Doki is just a vocal guy and can help with calling
Big fan from India

@@kangrukenny thanks for the quick response. If you had to give her a buff to bring her back to relevancy how would you do it?
Make her a 2 speed again at the least, or keep her 1 speed and give her a 1.5x. I actually have no idea what you could do to the gadget because Fenrir’s gadget is just so much better, it’s actually hard to say without making the Banshees too overpowered again.
make a video on MENA team Falcons I think they made an impressive run at this Major nice video also
I have been very intrigued by Falcons. They’ll definitely be on the list of ideas!!
Oe of the best igls in the game
Me: Fabian
This guy: Alemao
Me: ok that works for me
Great Video, thanks so much :) #G2Army

nerf in speed + no 1.5 = pick rate goes down, pick rate goes down = no melusi traps anymore, no melusi traps anymore = G2 playstyle
Noice
And now they are nerfed by addition of fenrir
G2 had a 100% Fenrir banrate in the R5 North Rainbow Rumble quals 😂
@@kangrukenny theory checks out
New meta? This is how siege was always played before it became so focused on gunfights.
I never claimed this to be a "new" meta. G2 executed this style of Siege the best, hence why they won SI, which is what I wanted to show.
Very good video but you’re giving TOO MUCH credit to Melusi and that single nerf. The meta changed to Defenders contesting and aggressive fragging leaving attackers at a numbers disadvantage.
