I honestly thought SSG was going to lose after a while, but I’m glad they came back to win it. I’m glad NA won this year, this has been some of the best Siege I’ve ever seen played. GG to NIP though, this is no loss for them, they beat TSM, BDS, and the siege giant G2 to go to the grand finals. Great job to both teams. I’m happy for Canadian, he’s deserved this for a while now.
Bleach is good for health BDS maybe but TSM played exceptionally well throughout the whole tournament. I honestly think NIP caught TSM on a bad day since Beaulo was really the only one carrying the game the second time around
@@NoahWeaverRacing this year invitational had GUNNERSSS. like the level of competition is just soo crazy high, any team that got cold was done. except for ssg and that's very admirable. great stuff
@@bleachisgoodforhealth8829 they lost to tsm first but then won against them. Also tsm is not a team you can downplay. They were very dominant this pro league season and then in the invitational too.
Those 1v1 on thinkinade, rampy stopping the plant from below , those 2 rounds NiP clearly had that. Mind blown the way they made their comeback🤯 SSG GOAT !! Congratulations 🎉❣️
What a story for Canadian .... all the years , chokes , pain .... though i was rooting for NiP coz they're an old OG's to me but my eyes teared when i saw SSG win . You gotta respect Roy's patience and commitment to win again
My god it's awe inspiring to watch these absolute madmen. A match where I wanted both teams to win. Love NiP's and SSG's playstyle for vastly different reasons.
Kinda feel bad for NiP. Happy for SSG , but watching that felt lackluster like there should've been a 5th map. This series looked like it was going to top that EG v Penta final. Oh well gg's nonetheless.
I never watched R6 esports before this match. I originally joined for the year 5 leaks, and stayed because I had nothing else to do. I had previously heard of and interacted with fans of SSG, so I rooted with them for the hell of it while my friend in the call rooted for the underdog NiP. This match was *insane!* I've never been so hyped over anything compared to watching SSG come back from a two game loss streak to pound NiP to the dust. Both teams are great, don't get me wrong, but... SSG all the way.
I was for SSG but i think NiP did very well too... they looked undefetetable in the lover bracket. Also it was nice, (if they planned it like that) that they saved Villa until the final!
Congratulations NA. You finally done it again. After all those years of painfully watching EU DOMINATE. I can only imagine what' the after partys were like. Dancing in the street and the ceiling.
@@brennanweiss4135 yeah ik idc if it's any team in the final in any situation I just think that the finals should be played on a level playing field with no advantages
@@benbristow7810 Actually NIP got to lose and stay in the tournament....that's their advantage. I'm a real double elimination tournament NIP would have to beat SSG once to reset the bracket to even, and then beat them again.
Man Spacestation really got me scared for a moment, but kinda fitting most of their winning rounds are heart attacks, fitting that their finals win should be as well. I’ll admit when Pino hit that shot falling into blue I thought it was just not meant to be.
Since it was a double elimination tournament it gave SSG the advantage for not losing and coming from winner's bracket, since NIP and many others would have been knocked much sooner but didn't thanks to a second chance, and it's better than having to make NIP beat SSG twice to win like other double elimination tournaments
Didnt get a single prediction wrong this entire tournament other than NiP vs. TSM in the semi-finals. Really though TSM would take it like they did before.
I got all my predictions right surprisingly. I was rooting for NiP to beat G2. I was rooting for SSG to beat Tsm, and at that point I knew NiP was on such a hot streak, and TSM couldn't bring the fight other than Beaulo
Penguin Noodles merc and achieved just weren’t there at all, NIP is good at making people change their play style, but players like Shaiiko and Beaulo are naturally aggressive. That is why they were always fragging and carrying while everyone else on the team would struggle
Lionel the G.O.A.T Nip was fucking amazing and scary tbh! Ofc i rooted for EU bc i'm from here, but glad too different teams and regions battle from finals victory. Nip was crazy.
I come back to this final and I always try to understand why they make a 1 map advantage in a grand final of the largest event of the year. I know that it’s because of the upper bracket, but it’s still a puzzling thing.
Someone enlighten me.. If NIP won the first two maps, then that should force a best of 5, right? However, SSG only won two maps going forward and took the crown?
@@user-cx3de2lg7s I see, that's great and all but I don't think that's fair in a championship. Just my opinion. Also, a game 5 would have been much more exciting for the viewers too.
@@LukeMackie it's more unfair to SSG. In a real double elimination tournament NIP should have to beat SSG once to reset the bracket and then beat them again to take the tournament. This gives SSG less room for error.
@@bradb.5238 Oh. I didnt know that. Seems kinda unfair imo. If both teams are In the final there should be a level playing field. The lower bracket team already faced a disadvantage by playing an extra match on the same day.
It could be argued though that it was unfair for SSG because they did not have the same loss buffer that every other team had. If anything NIP should have needed to win one seri s to reset the bracket and the next to win it.
@@sidar2692 Exactly, I think you can still find the full brackets online if you search it up. It'd have been unfair for SSG if this advantage didn't exist in this type of an elimination championship. SSG won all of their matches, while NiP lost quite in an early stage. However, since they dropped to the Loser's Brackets (they qualified to the Winner's Brackets from the Group Stage) this basically gave them a second chance to win the competition and they used this. Both teams deserved to be in the final match but one deserved it more, that's how this system works I believe.
For the people complaining about the 1 map advantage for SSG, in my opinion it’s really the only way to justify a losers’ bracket. Under previous circumstances NIP wouldn’t even be in the grand finale. Just my opinion tho
NiP fucked up during the rush, if they plant that well they should left with 1 round to have the comeback, what a shame the win just slip away from them.
Ssg went through the entire event without losing a single series and only losing one map in a bo3 format, seems fair to me to give them a 1 map lead advantage
To be fair, in the old format NIP wouldn’t even be in the grand finals since they lost in the playoffs. It would have been TSM and SSG. I’d say it was fair
@@y_jpi2534 but they lost winners should be favored to win as they didnt lose a series losers had lost a series and should be at the disadvantage because of it
the idea of getting a point advantage is very wrong like already the lower bracket played more games u are such making them exhausted it was very unfair tbh
Youssef Shafey exactly, they had NiP play tsm mere hours before the final. not only that, but 1 map in a best of 5? that’s the dumbest shit ever. GGs to both teams tho
Teams get rewarded for losing and getting a second chance which is what loser bracket is in retrospect.. So why shouldnt the team who hasnt lost a match not get rewarded as well ? Just cause they played hours ago isn't unfair they were warmed which is a good thing and this level.
@@rahffy8181 SSG got a lead because they qualified from The Upper/Winner Bracket, while NiP qualified from The Lower/Loser Bracket as they losy earlier in the event but got another chance.
NIP was so lucky the first two maps. It seems NIP has the best timing, on peaks and flanks. Even against TSM and dark zero. Then on bank it switched, SSG had perfect timing. This game is all about timing man.
Não adianta falar que a NIP foi roubada. As regras (o round de vantagem) eram essas, e todos sabiam. Infelizmente, a NIP tomou um comeback. Jogaram muito bem, mereciam... mas, é isso! Time jovem, ótimos players! Vai longe, ainda!
What a class act by Canadian and the rest of the team, calling their coach over to help lift the hammer
Not only him tho
Lycan is honestly the reason this SSG squad did so well, they are all so talented but Lycan's strats are so top-tier.

the real ricktified he did a reverse sweep
I watched the whole live stream but i always come to watch these cuz why not
Yes sir same here! When SSG won i screamed on IRL. When i finished this video I did the same thing
The crowd heavily influenced this series. They got into both SSG and NIP’s heads.
Plenty of Vamos Ninjas chants out there too.
rydakule def not to the scale of ssg chants
For sure. After round 4 on clubhouse, that deafening spacestation chant marked the turnaround for the whole series.
Bruh they lost and that’s it.
J Lewis unfortunate but that’s the name of the game
Probably one of the greatest comebacks ever
Can't forget the old Penta coming back and beating evil geniuses though, but looks like Canadian finally won
Yea that and what the Patriots did in the Superbowl
Ence comeback 💓
Are you THE real sthapp it?
Crescent Roze ?
Those 1v1 on thinkinade, rampy stopping the plant from below , those 2 rounds NiP clearly had that.

The clutch round wins of Rampy and ThinkingNade sealed the series.

Awesome highlights as always! So great to see SSG raise a title for NA.
