I gotta say, Lennli has really grown into the commentator role. I wasn’t sure last time, but he’s really turned into arguably the strongest commentator of a very strong bunch.
Is there tournaments like this where rainbolt is playing instead of casting? There is multiple scenarios where I feel like he knows better than some of the pros playing and would love to see him compete at this level too. Did he simply just not qualify? Or is he choosing to cast instead?
The Orlando and MK semi final was so sad. They just do random guess in seconds rather than trying to find the location and then they dont even react to seeing the building they're in and that they dont even do a 5k... seriously why?
You pointed the difference between Move and No-Move culture of players in Geoguessr! I personally agree with you that it's more impressive to see a moving player getting to pinpoint the exact location, especially at Blinky's speed, which is completely insane. On the other hands not to underestimate no-move players who get to <100km each time they see a single image, this is also quite impressive and this is why MK reached the final, he made guesses from outer space, and they may not be so random as we poor average players think.
ngl when i saw that i instantly said bangladesh, you can not believe me but i definitely knew it was bangladesh, it’s just like the darker tint and the sky is more bangladesh.
It was game over if MK hedged it on Russia instead of going extreme east. Genuinely the one round where Blinky got completely outfoxed and it was a blunder guess
6:58:42 Geoguessr has a choice to make. Do they want to be perceived as an esport like CS:GO valorant league? or sophisticated & worldly like chess olympics tennis? They’ve chosen esports. i think chess attire is wavier than esports jerseys
For people that don’t play, those cement style road are all over the Philippines most roads look like that which isn’t common elsewhere. Philippines was the easy kind of play it safe guess but Orlando going with his gut thinking something looks off took conviction and a ton of background knowledge that only comes from making thousands of guesses in your life😂 such an awesome guess off of pure vibes
Yea its a though position to be fair The first location that comes to my mind is also philiphines and but when you look arround it feels strange for phili
I guessed Bangladesh looking at it, you get a lot of roads there with trees on side of the road, fun fact is that I learned that through a map topitic created
Depois de ver essa world cup/orlando, e ver mount jogar ha umas semanas atras, nao teve jeito, assinei e comecei a estudar o jogo, bom demais!! Comemorei mto nesse round.🥉♥️
I'm new to this and just watched every match. I love it, but it seems they have the same countries over and over. At first I thought it might be places that didn't have maps online, but that's not it. It seems they just use a small pool of countries. I think they had the Philippines many times, while other countries much larger were not seen. Does anyone know why this is? Seems to take away from true "geo" guessing. No hate, this is still amazing skill, regardless.
Countries are "limited" to the ones that have street view coverage, and within them for the world cup they do custom maps, so they look to have removed too smaller countries like San Marino, Monaco (although they kept a Singapore or Virgin Islands but on tough NM/NMPZ ones!). For the big countries covered by street view, I am under the impression they were rather present in the WC in general, like Brazil, Russia, US etc... maybe you have watched parts of the video where they were not so frequent?
@@steph7793 Well, it's like I saw Phillipines so many times, but don't remember seeing places like Germany, Isreal, Egypt etc. There are about 60 countries larger than the Philippines, but it seems the Philippines came up, along with others, a bit more. Was just curious. Thanks for the answer!
This is nuts, I'm on vacation in Germany and I went past that bait location yesterday!!! To have a look yourself search Chez Michel in Tübingen. Amazing games, these pros are insane!!
Having watched every single game and to be rewarded by the most insane game in the history in the finals... i mean... this may have been the top 3 all times sports experience of my life.
yes 😅 sometimes the antenna size or even the absence of antenna can be useful to rule in/out some countries. Within some countries it can give away the region, like Russia. For those guys, this is one of the dozens of clues they see and we don't while getting a first glance at the round!
