I refreshed my home screen, and as I looked in disbelief I saw it, a vondakay upload... Tears filled my eyes as I clicked on the video. But as I listened to the opening moments.. I was in disbelief... when I realized the video was about GOATstorm!!! I violently threw my arms into the air as I said "HAZAA!! ALL HAIL KING SANDSTORM!!!" and I swung my feet as I reveled in the joyous occasion! Thank you, Vondakay!
ye nah he's holdin up pretty well nowadays, about 60-70 hrs past 2 weeks and sparring everyone every single day for months. just putting in the same amount of effort and passion into the game like all of this gen's top players got him exactly what the rest of us earned
I still think just from purely watching you play I have never felt so confident in ones ability to win tournaments. Especially at a LAN your composure is unlike anyone else. I think he will hold up very good at BCX but you just never know its so shocking hearing anyone lose to an upset or just a close match.
@@bigyetee2592 Yes I have gotten a few comments to talk about Impalas Flow state where he seems really hard to deal with. I also feel that similar confidence in Godly especially when he starts to play more grounded.
seeing sandstorm come back from his hiatus, slowly getting back on his feet and destroying everyone was a sight to behold, like legends on stone coming to life once again love the music choice again u never miss the atmospheres
Fantastic video and analysis! It's one thing to just claim Sandstorm is back in form and to just look at the numbers, but to break down his progress through the power rankings since the beginning of this year, compare it to the fierce competition he has to conquer (both in his own region and outside of it) AFTER his hiatus to maintain his reputation, and conclude that he's still one of the top contenders for the world championship title? Nobody does it better than Vondakay I hope so badly that we see Sandstorm vs. Kyna at BCX. Knowing Kyna only lost to boots at the last royale, and seeing Sandstorm's Tezca online in the Grand Finals... it's gonna be incredible. I don't care who you are, but if you pull off a play like Sandstorm does at 17:15 and knock out the top player in the tournament off the SIDE with a BOOTS SIDE LIGHT to finish your 3-stock? You're goated forever, that's OD
Thank you! I get really worried these are extremely hard to follow so I am very happy you can summarize it so quickly lmao. I think we will see Sandstorm vs Kyna at BCX. The main issue with Sandstorm is he is really weak to kick off tournaments and thats when it seems he gets those unexpected losses. Kyna will go on to win the entire thing unless he faces some absulote demon. AKA another stingray in bracket like he had to deal with last year. Godly also sometimes beats him. NO the Battle Boots gameplay is sick ( I kinda wish they had a different name ngl) but the plays you are able to make with them are super exciting and unique to Brawlhalla
Man I love your videos, I'm basically just bingind them. You deserve much more recognition, I didn't even follow esports before of you. Keep up the the good content ❤
I am so glad you keep up with a bit of the Esports now!! it can be so much more exciting to watch with a bit of context. Thank you for watching the videos as well! I really appreciate it and will see if more people find out in the future
I cant wait to see Kyna in BCX, his Teros gameplay was absolutely monstrous and I can't wait to see what else he can do. Also, the joy I felt as a Tezca semi-main when Sandstorm started dominating with him is just unmatched
@@Vondakay Man the world has become EXPENSIVE AF lately and everyone knows it. Think ppl have accepted that sponsorships is a necessary evil for good ppl to keep doing what they love to do without being homeless.
Your content, how you structure and narrate your videos, is absolutely god tier. I think if you also made other videos not relating to brawl you'd probably have sum crazy success there as well
Not initially I didn't watch him but after seeing multiple comments about his channel I started to watch his videos and study him for sure. Very engaging and talented at making videos for such under explored regions of games
I don't think we'll ever see another player like sandy man. Not only was his absolute dominance in his prime a sight to behold in itself, the longevity of it and the comeback all combine into what is undisputably the GOAT of brawlhalla
The only issue with the Australian thing is I would just be giving attention to people who did bad things and it doesn't exactly help the scene of Brawlhalla
Thank you! Lunziestella makes amazing music but before I record sections or edit for different tournaments I really like to pick out the music before hand and have that be the center.
Vondakay in a short moment of high stress and being an idiot took a very bad job offer and is traveling the country but plans to still upload from his laptop
I think he is insanely good at this game and can stay on top ngl if he kept playing but I can also see that his peak is so high. he has been competing for so many years though consistently
I've seen some of his runs and hes mentioned a few times how the skills transferred from game to game. I think the steady but intense grind GD offers could give a lot of motivation in other games If you always viewed it as a progression bar and not just the finish line you would be more motivated to push forward even if you lose
you shouldve done this if he placed good in the royale or bcx not after he got 6-0d by godly and 9-0d by kyna lol - impala too, hes untouchable if he gets in the zone
think about this, the only reason north america was 1st for so long, is because of sandstorm. Sandstorm is literally the only contributing factor to their reign. Sure, players like boomie and others were there, but because of sandstorm winning tournament after tournament and then losing all of a sudden, this is the only chance other countries have to take the top spot. If it weren’t for sandstorm taking a break, or coming in low placements, they would never be there.
@@luzsal9737 because he doesn't really play the game lol. I always say this. Every time he's actually consistently making videos and streaming, he always does good in tournaments. Boomie CAN do really good, but does he really want to 😅.
@acemcknight9241 I thought the whole reason for him not uploading was so he can focus on placing higher and potentially winning. Sane reason Sandstorm stopped uploading. Idk it seems like you watch him more than I do so you probably know more about it
@@luzsal9737you're right. I used to watch alot of boomie videos and followed him till the last one. He said it himself, he stopped uploading so he can practice and be a better player for tournaments.
@@bigyetee2592 maybe he said that, but that's pretty much never how it goes lol. Upload and stream more=higher placements. It's been like that for years now for Boomie, especially in 1s tournaments. Maybe he could prove me wrong and change for the first time in 3 years and somehow go crazy at BCX. I can see it happening in 2s, but I don't know about 1s.
Hey vondakay Can you make video on why sea doesnt get invited on the royals and cant even get in bcx top 30 despite having good competative players.overall why they didnt get invited to the most of lans like eu na sa etc
I honestly don't know how EU can be considered top 2, it's not even EU, it's just Godly 😂. SA has that couple really strong players that can win, while NA has a few obvious people that can win and a bunch of dark horses that just come out of nowhere and do really well in BCX. If Kyna can play consistently at the level his Teros was recently, then I think he has a very good chance at winning, other than that I think it's going to be a ffa. Luna is going to be preparing for BCX and we all know he can just come out and win, but I personally hope he gets off of Teros. He can beat a decent amount of players with it, but I just don't think it's even close to matching Kyna's, it just looks sloppy in comparison imo. Even though Sandstorm lost to Kyna, if you pay attention to the sets it was actually very close up until Sandstorm would just get clipped around by hammer. If he can get over the hammer roadblock I think he has a good chance at winning. Impala on lan. Nothing else to be said. Godly is always good, can never tell whether he's just going to win or place top 3. Multiple other players, but I don't want to go on forever.
To be fair in autumn 2v2 Boomie actually carry pretty hard especially in the match against Java, sandstorm choked a lot or maybe Tezca isn't good for 2v2 idk
Like world Champion good kinda true.. TO be fair back in 2019 He took Tweek PR 2 at that time in Smash to game 5 last stock at LTC Then won the 2019 LTC for Brawlhalla even though both brackets were on the same day. Then won the 2019 BCX championship In 2022 I think? or 2021? He got a top 8 in Winters for the first time in his career then won a Multiversus LTC I think if you wanna see someone super impressive who won many back to back world Champions SonicFox is interesting to look at
most likely, the name “sandstorm” in the end credit of cataclysm is definitely referencing him. he also did have a video of him beating cataclysm but I think it’s unlisted now. not to mention he is gdsandstorm after all

crazy how the other day I watched one of ur older videos and I thought when is this guy going to upload and then I see him upload
I did...and I hope it was exciting to see
extremely, ur content is amazing@@Vondakay
My biggest flex is knowing sandstorm from when he used to play geometry dash
Geometry dash is so cool I wish I was able to play the levels that are stunning
one day our glorious prince will return to us... until then I shall stand watch over this video...
You should talk about the Australian pros that were banned and what happened

would be the cherry on top if sandsrorm won bcx

I know people compare us all the time.... Him a multi time world champion.. me the person who talks about him and others

I really enjoyed this video good job, could you ever do one on yuz?
BRRROOOOOO I LOVE YOUUUU YOU KING YOU DID IT YOU PRESSED THE REC BUTTON
I couldn't find it but I finally did and I hope you enjoy the ramblings
commenting for the algorithm, cause if this video goes well you are probably uploading more
I think I will upload regardless but thank you I appreciate the thought... I just had some life issues that stopped me
Can’t wait for one of these videos for Eat my onions and balloon boy once they pop off this year (which they will trust)
Why does vondakay not stream anymore?
Vondakay in a short moment of high stress and being an idiot took a very bad job offer and is traveling the country but plans to still upload from his laptop
Paranoia is Sorry about that, he didn’t know. He wishes you Good luck, and he loves you@@Vondakay
Impala i feel just catch people off guard, his kinda an extreme one hit wonder. His not consistent at all. Also miss your vids boots brokeb
I think he is insanely good at this game and can stay on top ngl if he kept playing but I can also see that his peak is so high. he has been competing for so many years though consistently
Sandstorm is like mickal afton and that he always comes back better and stronger
Cant wait for the next upload when I’m on my deathbed
bruhhhh no not that long
Put sandstrom in title or no views :((((. Vondakaya gives us another banber as per usual
I've been debating if its necessary for seo
@@Vondakayhe did it
as a gd player it is very weird to see one of te of legends of GD be so loved in brawlhalla
I've seen some of his runs and hes mentioned a few times how the skills transferred from game to game. I think the steady but intense grind GD offers could give a lot of motivation in other games
If you always viewed it as a progression bar and not just the finish line you would be more motivated to push forward even if you lose
massive w as usual i love ur videos
Thank you for sticking around after the pause in uploads I really appreciate it.
Another Goated Video , from a Goated Content Creator
you shouldve done this if he placed good in the royale or bcx not after he got 6-0d by godly and 9-0d by kyna lol - impala too, hes untouchable if he gets in the zone
