I wasn’t ready for the heated fruit juice debate.

when theres a cat on screen everything spilo says comes in one ear and comes straight out the other

[@gstotty]

Commercial apple juice > commercial orange juice
Fresh apple juice < fresh orange juice

[@UncleJemima]

the most disappointing thing about Samoa was that at first glance it _looked_ sophisticated, with complex routes that provide a ton of options and encourage creativity from flankers
but once you've played the map a few times you realize that, like Spilo says, much of it is fluff. there are paths you never take because they are too out of the way and don't make it worth your time. there is (gorgeous) space that could be fun to play in, but you never will
in some ways i think Samoa actually lends itself better to 6v6 gameplay because with a more congested main lane those off angles and awkward spaces would become more valuable

[@kujikawathemeekmage3640]

Given the fact that Mauga was originally intended for ow1 it’s perfectly possible this map was originally also intended for 6v6

[@froggod6484]

Playing goats scrims on Samoa is sick

i just wanted to say thank you for all these videos/vods, its been helping a lot

[@jacobbaartz7710]

Where you really separate big boys from the boys is whether or not they choose the pulp OJ

[@Midnight_BRAZIL]

That cozy upper point in downtown point is great to shoot flying characters

[@technopath4119]

Great vid love map guides can you possibly do a video on how to adapt your playlist if you are playing a character on an unfavorable map?

[@lukassorowka2672]

Be creative, don't go main. Try sth crazy

[@t1s868]

apple juice is an incredible ingredient

[@mikhailrogers5628]

fuck yea new map guide just dropped

[@whaloob]

Man this map is gorgeous but what are those health pack locations lol

[@Ninja_Tude]

And downtown seems very flyer/flanker heavy. Tall buildings and narrow streets. Ramps for slight higher ground, megas on both wings...

[@mr.parker8014]

I like the apple juice bit, it's humorous and a nice change of pace without being too much in the way of the content

[@seasonedpotatos9605]

Dude playing low ground as brig on Beach in those tunnels makes it SO hard for any hitscan to force you off point. Your tank preferably one with mobility can play the catwalk and the building behind the catwalk, you can peak out a lot and pack and like Spilo said go up the stairs in the back its very easy to rotate up with bashing for movement and joining the fight.

[@Ninja_Tude]

Volcano feels like they cut the high ground off university, and pasted it on the other side of hallway. No wonder its brawl heavy

[@Roch-kl5ge]

Spilo is based, Orange juice on top

[@Ze-lt2vs]

[@munjoe9978]

ngl I'd watch an entire vid of you talking about juices

[@WeGoTSkiLL]

as usual a very insightful video
Idk about the maps, but orange juice really is better.

[@Dr.Pelican-bw2zs]

I 100% agree with you, orange juice is unquestionably better than apple juice...except after you brush your teeth...then it becomes slightly less so.

[@Kingsquid76]

Average orange juice fan vs. apple juice connoisseur:

[@B3Rand0m]

I prefer OJ as well but your apple juice stance is wild. Saying juice is sugary is like saying water is wet. L take
Nice vid tho. pretty informative

[@RobertPazurek]

That's a pro or noob tip on the juice meta? Honestly though, come to Germany and drink a glass of organic natural apple juice and you'll change your mind at least a little bit.
Oh and thx for the great map guide as well 😁

[@midend]

apple juice is a safe pick, orange juice is for based risk takers

[@Tstormer]

Orange juice

[@dontcallmeblues]

so we all know orange juice is the best but are you a based pulp enjoyer or a cringe pulp hater
