i think regardless of whether yoru holds it or not, the deadlock should've ulted before the tap/swing. the ult is kinda like a raze rocket, whereas the way deadlock played it kinda just ended up baiting the yoru. assuming the deadlock had ulted first, then i think yoru faking would've been the right play (and it would've been much more obviously the right play) because at worst deadlock kamikazes reyna, which means yoru surviving takes priority over sticking the defuse.
Yeah I can see why Deadlock didn’t ult there but agreed if I were the Deadlock I would’ve either used ult earlier or just moved up a bit to see the left side of the smoke. But as the Yoru I’m always tapping there and forcing Reyna to push regardless of what Deadlock does.
I personally think if I knew reynas last known position was B, I'd stick to half and since the reyna blind came out after the half was achieved I wouldve probably sprayed or played for the push as soon as I got half. I dont think this is the right play, but I think it wouldve been better than the video. Probably depends too much on a 50/50 is the biggest issue with that whereas holding the smoke push wouldve probably been like a 60/40. I wouldve also considered tping out when the reyna blind was thrown but idk if there was enough time to do so. Also one thing to consider was that I wouldve trusted my deadlock to shoot the blind or the reyna
Great coach! Have you by chance studied to be a teacher/esport coach? Great quality so far. I need to figure out how to record my own vods and have you review them!
I appreciate you saying that! I just started doing it for fun so no formal training or anything. And you can always join my discord and send me your VOD that way if you ever need it. The link is in the description!
