    And I will say The Walking Dead has been
    1:10
    And I will say The Walking Dead has been playing really nice all weekend. Um we've seen a lot of really big scores during qualifying. And one thing to note, which I found really odd, is that there's an incredibly long ball save. It is a pretty generous boss, but he just he just burned through it already, but um makes it kind of nice because you have an opportunity to like go for the prison with a safe return. >> The prison doors on this are disabled,
    1:40
    The prison doors on this are disabled,
    1:40
    The prison doors on this are disabled, so won't have to deal with that. But you do have the nasty magnet drain possible. >> Yes, that is true. So, you're going to
    1:48
    Yes, that is true. So, you're going to
    1:48
    Yes, that is true. So, you're going to probably see a lot of people trying to divert the energy with the flippers. Um, but I did find that it was very easy to get both get up both ramps. >> Yeah, like this game has been playing
    2:02
    Yeah, like this game has been playing
    2:02
    Yeah, like this game has been playing really nice all weekend. >> Okay, we're on two. Yeah, that's the
    2:07
    Okay, we're on two. Yeah, that's the
    2:07
    Okay, we're on two. Yeah, that's the tilt. But he qualified the prison, so he just needs to make those shots and get his prison going. Uh, I don't think he locked in any food, weapons, or first aid. >> I don't think so.
    2:18
    I don't think so.
    2:18
    I don't think so. >> I saw him trying to get those jobs, but
    2:20

    2:26
    Goran's not even letting it settle. He's
    2:26

    Yeah, that's going to come back. But
    3:04
    Yeah, that's going to come back. But we'll see how this magnet treats him. >> Oh, he's one of those
    3:08
    Oh, he's one of those
    3:08
    Oh, he's one of those >> where you kind of you need to kind of
    3:09
    where you kind of you need to kind of
    3:10
    where you kind of you need to kind of give it a little bit. Oh, nice. >> Nice clean. No dangers.
    3:14
    Nice clean. No dangers.
    3:14
    Nice clean. No dangers. He's got his EB collect ready too on that Woodbury shot. >> He loves that arena ramp.
    3:20
    He loves that arena ramp.
    3:20
    He loves that arena ramp. >> Mhm.
    3:21
    Mhm.
    3:21
    Mhm. >> Yeah.
    3:22
    Yeah.
    3:22
    Yeah. >> And like you can even see like it
    3:24
    And like you can even see like it
    3:24
    And like you can even see like it doesn't even seem like that much power is going into it to get it all the way up that ramp. >> Yeah.
    3:29
    Yeah.
    3:29
    Yeah. >> How much is the EB collect worth on
    3:31
    How much is the EB collect worth on
    3:31
    How much is the EB collect worth on this? Because I feel like it's not worth a lot. Is it 2 and 12 million? Yep. >> Okay.
    3:36
    Okay.
    3:36
    Okay. >> Yep.
    3:37
    Yep.
    3:37
    Yep. >> So I don't really go for that when
    3:39
    So I don't really go for that when
    3:39
    So I don't really go for that when that's lit. I feel like it happens naturally. It happens naturally. Like that's kind of when you're trying to put up big points, that's kind of peanuts where some games it's worth a lot more.
    4:07
    Nice pass over. He wants to backhand that prison. Nice. Doesn't burn through that ball save. So you could try to hit that another time. >> Yeah. Ski pass over.
    4:17
    Yeah. Ski pass over.
    4:17
    Yeah. Ski pass over. >> There we go.
    4:18

    4:47
    Beautiful little slap. I don't
    4:47
    Beautiful little slap. I don't understand it. I never will. But it was perfect. Oh, >> I'm assuming the game is set up so you
    4:54
    I'm assuming the game is set up so you
    4:54
    I'm assuming the game is set up so you can start modes and stuff while you're having Prism running. >> I'm not sure if they if you can do it
    5:02
    I'm not sure if they if you can do it
    5:02
    I'm not sure if they if you can do it after you start your multiball. >> Um I assume
    5:06
    Um I assume
    5:06
    Um I assume >> because Yeah. So yeah, it's a I think
    5:08
    because Yeah. So yeah, it's a I think
    5:08

    5:44
    That was a big move. I think he was
    5:44
    That was a big move. I think he was expecting it to tilt the way he stepped away from that. But that was only one danger. >> Yeah, that was a full inch.

    6:00
    Okay, so his drop targets are done. His
    6:00
