This match was the true "Masters" Finals, imo. Their strategies were unique and the crowd (myself included) was hype af to see it play out. These kids are definitely going to be a threat going forward.
yeah but at the same time it pissed me off how they basically didnt change anything from a game to another. The first 3-4 turns were exactly the same for all of the games
Bro their teams were built a very specific way so there's not much more they could change. Avery made the right adjustments that let them win the game, we saw the choices change in real time. Avery just had a win condition and made sure it happened 😅
Coming Clean Finally, I confessed all my sins to you and stopped trying to hide my guilt. I said to myself, “I will confess my rebellion to the LORD.” And you forgave me! All my guilt is gone. (Psalm 32:5) Years ago, a talk show segment featured the story of a little dog named Mugsy who had been hit by a car and was presumed dead by his owners. His grieving family buried him in a corner of their yard. But the next morning at 5:30, there was scratching at their back door. Much to the family’s surprise, it was their beloved Mugsy. Apparently, he wasn’t dead after all. The persistent pup dug himself out of his grave. That is what unconfessed sin is like. We may think we’ve buried it, but it will be back. There is only one way to get rid of our sin, and it’s at the cross of Jesus Christ. We can’t cover it. We can’t hide it. And we can’t run from it. It will stay with us until we confess it. After his sin of adultery and murder, David eventually admitted to God that he had sinned. Later he wrote about it in Psalm 32: “When I refused to confess my sin, my body wasted away, and I groaned all day long” (verse 3) David continued, “Finally, I confessed all my sins to you and stopped trying to hide my guilt. I said to myself, ‘I will confess my rebellion to the Lord.’ And you forgave me! All my guilt is gone” (verse 5) He didn’t try to blame someone else for his sin. He didn’t try to hide it at this point. Rather, David called it what it was, and he dealt with it in a straightforward way. We always want to blame others for our sin and say that it isn’t our fault. Do you need to own up to something you’ve done? Or, are you playing the blame game? There must come a point in your life when you say, “I’ve sinned. I’ve committed this iniquity. The problem is me.” And that is when things will change for you.

I loved being in the crowd for this, it was my first time ever spectating a VGC finals and everyone was going wild at the slightest things, even a random Spheal plush that showed up on stream. This match and the crowd’s reaction is exactly why I love this competitive community.

Honestly he played it really smart in the sense that it was big enough of a threat that Takumi had to focus it down, giving him a free Trick Room and switch into Torkoal.
Takumi is a little chad, but Averey is so cute. Seriously, this match was amazing, apart from a few mistakes but considering the age and moreover the anxiety that one feels both to play a final and to have such a media exposure, it was a good game, it almost seemed to see a match between masters, even in terms of opponent readings.
Avery won technically with only 3 Pokemon! His strategy might have been repetitive but why fix what isn't broken? Congratulations to you and your non damaging Oranguru!

I wouldn’t know whether the kid is a boy or a girl or none of the two. I had long hair as a child my self, which made me look like a girl, even though I was a boy. Good thing I was at least always having a male stature and my voice became pretty deep.
Avery is unfazed, I've never seen someone play so calmly that will help in the long term, I look forward to seeing more of their matches in the future :D this was a great set!
HUGE congratulations Avery! It was an awesome set. I saw the first game and was like “ This kid, he got those champion eyes” I never doubted him. I could’ve felt the energy through my screen. I knew he was gonna win.
@@Own_god.yep who needs labels tbh. This kid rocks either way. The interview melted my heart. I don’t play a lot of competitive Pokémon and my passion for esports was a bit low lately, but it this kid almost made me cry in the interview. This was both epic and adorable. My passion got reignited again.
The use of this Iron Hand is really, really strange! But effective! Pretty much having it just so Orangaru can set up trick room AND Torkoal can switch in for free at the first turn of Trick Room. It's actually impressive, that it works so well, BECAUSE it gets excluded in the first run. If it didn't, Torkoal actually couldn't get the maximum out of Trick Room because it would have to be switched in. I'm sure there is a Plan B, if Iron Hand doesn't get defeated in the first round, but it is cool to see how its imediate defeat can actually be used as an effective strategy.
Yo Avery is so adorable and to hear that was his first time trying and won?? WOW he's gonna be a major problem in the future I'll bet my last dollar on it!!!
@@tomp.2371I dunno, I like being a Pokémon kid, but let’s not discriminate for what game we grew up with. It doesn’t make sense either way. We like different things and that is okay.
My SO and I watched this match live on our couch. It was the BEST finals match that day. We cheered so hard for both, but Avery held our hearts. Avery has 2 new fans. I can't to follow his pokémon master career!!
This match was the highlight for the entire vg finals that day. It was the best set of the three in my opinion and the teams werent the same cookie cutter thing we always see now over the last two months or so.
0:10 You can see Avery wearing a “Mighty Psyducks” shirt in his promo shot, but by the end of the match ( 25:38 ) somebody at TPCi photoshopped it out because someone probably realized it wasn’t official merch lol.
Necessary sacrifice to take 1 move from Takumi, for Avery to hit basically a double hit using instruct, but i can't help imagine what it could've done in play, myb diff strategy?
oh my goodness that is the most heartmelting postgame interview I've ever heard - I don't think I've ever made the "aww" face before that XD what a wonderful champion
This was soooo good , avary did amazing and takumi had bad luck with that outrage choosing flutter mane . Both could win was so very close.Congrats champ
I did some thinking and from one point on the match was only decided by Dragonite having 2 turns to hit the Orangutan with Outrage instead of Flutter Mane. The chance for him to hit orangutan through confusion in 2 turns was 41%. So even 3 Turns before the match ended it was already decided by a (roughly) 50/50
These types of matches are so entertaining & far from boring while these kids can improve in the future i'm impressed they made it this far especially avery based on his gameplay 👏
Takumi could have won game two if he made dragonite attack Torkoal with the aquajet and so dazzling gleam is surviving hit and then go for aquajet and a shadow ball for confirm kill
These two kids got skill and they could beat me most definitely, I wouldn’t stand a chance lol. What Pokémon game is this btw? Also very well done from both sides!
I don’t even play Pokémon, but did anyone else catch the female commentator say that Ting-Lu was forced into the protect because of the opposing instruct, and not encore.
the rage quit would have infuriated me. Why did he not target orangaru with AJ? Even with the harsh sunlight, the damage would have still been substantial.
Neither of them rage quit, they conceded when the battle was over to move things along. Why draw it out in front of a huge crowd when you know you've lost? They were both great sports imho, the first thing they did was shake hands afterward.
