This was a crucial Group A match between GNF and Hollywood Freerunners. GNF came into the tournament as the title favourites but lost their opening match against 5 Borough 3-0. If they didn't win this match they would have been eliminated from the tournament. Hollywood Freerunners won their opener 3-0 against Enso Movement so they were looking strong.

Can we have an "athlete ready" hoodie please ?
WCT is like MLS without the balls and olympic medals
I found myself screaming at the screen for a sport for the first time in my life. Chase Tag is awesome.
Glad to hear it and thanks a lot!!
i know right? no other sport makes me feel like this one
I was getting funny looks during my lunch break because I kept muttering: "Get em, get em!" And: "Run, run, run!!". 😅
I know! I've never really been one to spectate sports either in the past, let alone get hyped and yelling at the tv XD but I'm all over this sport! It's amazing how much can happen in 20 seconds or less, there can be so much tension and drama in the high speed and tight movements!
@@kamparker9726 Nice - Keep chasing & Don't Get Caught!
The sportsmanship of all of these athletes is so nice. GNF visibly gasping and in shock when their opponent hurt himself. I'm sure they were thinking that that was not how they wanted to get the point.
For sure. The athletes are all very close.
Likely free running and parkour buddies many times before. They're all incredible
even guy who got away tried to help him back to his side but the guy said he was okay
Repent to Jesus Christ “The Lord will be king over the whole earth. On that day there will be one Lord, and his name the only name.” Zechariah 14:9 NIV K
Really I felt GNF were annoying
Just a moment to admire the incredible athletic abilities... and even more the sportsmanship and competitive spirit. Take note folks, this is how athletes are supposed to act.
Youve gotta do more replays guys. Basics of sports broadcasting. A fan almost watches for the replay as much as the live action. You're killin me here.
That and only a 20sec timer per round are my primary complaints. 20 seconds is just enough time for maybe 1 close call but its too short to get into it. I'd extend the field just a bit, maybe one more obstacle, and make it 30 to 45 seconds. And add a penalty for standing still for more than 2 seconds so it isnt just a stare down
@@DisDatK9I'm sure their rules exist for a reason. If you extend the time you probably increase the likelihood of getting tagged a great deal
I never knew this exists and I'm literally glad I saw this... A first ever sports where I felt hyped..
Nice.
I love how even when they lose a round theyre so respectful to the other team
Frfr
Was blessed by the KZhead algorithm with this vid and have discovered the great sport of chase tag. The graphic of Omar's knee was a very nice way to show viewers how tricky the obstacles are as well as reassuring them about athletes injuries. You've got a new subscriber :D
Superstitious nonsense
blessed is AI
This is really cool, glad it popped up in my KZhead feed. I like the sportsmanship of the competitors. Everyone seems respectful and having a good time.
As kids, my bunch of friends and I never thought about playing tag with obstacles. Amazing!!!!!
Probably a whole lot more broken bones and loose teeth
we had something similar :) with obstacles and some platforms, and you have not been allowed to step on the ground :) only platforms :) and how many bruises and fractures we had :) BUT it was fun... now i think how we survived LOL
You never played it at the playground or something?
Better that way. Kids would die here.
probably because no one wanted to break their necks
I love this lil' intel on 9:42 ) "Took it like a champ" :D
Ha - glad you liked it!!
@@WorldChaseTag really sweet
Also "Bail status: Savage"
@@pretzelkch8322 yes, and I want to know what the scale is and where "Savage" falls on it XD
I really bursted out laughing at that (the info box, not the bail!) - couldn't help myself :D Hope he recovers quickly though!
Antonio is insane!! Love watching him play as well as Jake and Davis.
Props to the announcer. Your commentary is top-notch and really brings up the level of excitement while watching.
Why are there no more slow motions of close catches? It's not like those are long videos so put em in there guys! Anyways great to see WCT back again. This sport is fire, athletes just keep getting better every year
We were working with a different production team this year so the setup was very different and we didn't have super slow mo rigged into the main system. We did shoot some slow mo footage with separate cameras so we'll probably put out some edits once all the matches are out. Thanks for the support!!!
Uh.... it wasn't super slow mo, but... there WAS slowmo replays at 0:50
@@brianmchaney7473 it would be cool to have slo-mos of all tags and perhaps even close calls.
@@WorldChaseTag understandable. Still a great job on the video. Very enjoyable
You can rewind it and slow it down via KZhead settings if you really want to see it
Omar’s knee is the real mvp
Haha - yes, I totally agree. It deserved its own graphic, I think.
Did you see his leg in 9:42?
Omg 😳:/ that hurts me thinking about it
The injury report is amazing
We aren’t gonna talk about the head bump?
Subbed ,why isn't this more popular,this is awesome
Oh...my....I never knew that this game will be so popular 🥺 Awesome to watch and support 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I think it was a nice touch to show the rest of GNF's concern from Omar's fall; the win was less important than the well-being of competitors. Only see that lvl of sportsmanship in WCT.
Hats off to all the players for their excellent sportsmanship and appreciation after each chase!
i found this as a recommendation but cant explain why am still watching every episode, just so addictive...
I've never found particular interest in most other sports, but this has me glued to the screen. Really cool stuff
You guys should add a group standing overview before the match
That's a good point. We're trying to figure out the best way of getting the group standings across. The last two matches (i.e. match 5 + 6) are usually the most importance ones.
@@WorldChaseTag There are a handful things you could addto your videos to engage more with the fans. Standings, team overviews before the match (who's competing, how are the individual athletes statistically compare to each other, where are they most likely to start or end a round as evader, chaser...?), post match analysis together with the athletes etc.
I agree with this. I am having a hard time recounting everything that has happened. Some sort of visual bracket would help immensely
@@lcberchtold1208 they already film everything in December so what they upload is all they film
This would be especially good for people who know nothing about sports; this is literally the first sport I've ever followed, so I'm kind of figuring it out as I go. I feel like because of WCT's online success there's probably a fair number of people watching who've never watched structured sports before; if people familiar with tournament styles are getting confused, we have no chance.
8:13 man that evader is just having a great time
Seth is a great jumper. Some athletes have longer legs and look more powerful but Seth always proves himself.
He jumped on the rod!!
This is what it felt like in elementary school❤️ Love this!
This was so exciting to watch! I think the sport just gained a new fan 🥰
Question: Is there some sort of bracket we can look at to see the advancement of each team?
Yeah, good point! We'll probably start to release them as community posts.
@@WorldChaseTag publish it on your website .. posts wont do
@@RahilKhan-jt9ut the tournament is already over and there is already a winner
@@WorldChaseTag Some kind of graphic at the beginning of the video would be awesome :)
I’ll come back to this comment once this is a Olympic sport.
I give it 50 years
@@theorignalmartian1261 yeah I’ll be 65 what a shame in society
Lmao
@@theorignalmartian1261 9
This will never be a Olympic sport 😕
It is the first time I see this, and I have no idea why this sport was not invented earlier, it looks amazing, nobody wants to hurt the other one, just the pure fitness and skill you need to have. It looks a very fun sport!
My KZhead algorithm has never been so random, I’ve seen psychology videos, a segment of a Korean drama, how the fake ocean of the American army works, best moments in cliff climbing competitions and then this
This would make a crazy anime 😏
Most definitely
Masters of the ninjitsu would love this
it wouldnt
sports anime
Yes!
What a match, great performance from both teams, hope Omar feels better soon.
Yeah, it was a great match!! Omar made an amazingly quick recovery!!
❤❤❤ You guys have an amazing team, keep it up! ❤❤❤ The graphics look awesome, the shine on the snake, the dinosaurs, the reflection on the water, everything. We have been following you guys for years. Please, create more content! Have you guys considered making a show/anime/movie?
Idk what led my algorithm to this sport on IG, but here I am, going down the rabbit hole and loving it! I guess it's doesn't lie after all
I had not expected my favourite childhood game would become a sport.... It may be one of the only sports I am not bored to watch...
And I thought I was the only one who hates watching sports
At 31, I now feel like going out to ply tag lol
Man imagine a 2v2 with bigger stadium
It would be awesome to see more variations of this sport. 👌
Oooo, that has a lot of potential!
i love this sport. look at how the evader stopped when the chaser fell. was really willing to give up the round to make sure he was alright. love the energy in this sport.
This is a better sport than anything in the Olympics
I had no idea that this was a thing 5 minutes ago. I think I might be hooked
Omar's Knee: Took It: Like a champ made me giggle
Are all the bars foam padded and slightly flexible? You'd hope so. It wouldn't just make them safe for banging your head on but also better to grip.
WHY ISNT MORE PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT THIS?!?!?! COMPLETELY AWESOME!!!
That was A Amazing chase Battle. And holy smoky that was insane🔥🔥🔥
Yeah, right from the start there were some crazy chases!!
The sportsmanship is so wholesome to watch :)
first time watching anything like this and gotta say - the sportsmanship alone in the vid is astounding!
both teams were incredible. I was thoroughly entertained.
With the context of social distancing in place, this is like watching a wildlife documentary of predators hunting their prey
8:07 Seth was so amazing in this run! He got tagged but he got out of some sticky situations really well. So stylish!
We call that the "Quac Track" after Xavia from Breach - instagram.com/xaviawhatcamole/ - he was thee first to run that route.
I have no idea why youtube recommend this to me but I'm so glad it did, this is hilarious
How the heck have I discovered this amazing sport only now ? I'm hooked ! ^^
Yesssss I’ve been waitin for this 🔥🔥💪🏼
Since Ultimate Tag, seeing Omar always put a smile on my face, but watching that moment at chase 4 made me feel bad for him. Hope he gets better soon. Also seeing those boys from GNF again is so satisfying, its kinda nostalgic, cuz we got a lot of new teams. Loved this match, as always.
My new favorite sport right here, I would never be able of playing it but watching it is awesome
A sport I had no idea I needed.
2:30 that looks like a big hit jesus also I've been waiting for this let's go great video it was 🔥🔥
Holy crap. This is amazing!
My whole childhood was a game like this :D AWESOME
people are so nice to each other in this sport
davis is just cool and calm
Thank you bro!!
Lol I just watched YOUR latest video right before watching this one.
Yo what’s up jimmy?
@@Primape92 so?
@@yudryanferiahs6973 was showin some love to the bro and his channel. Where does that have anything to do with YOU?
This is something I never knew existed and something I also never thought I’d need until now
This gets me more excited than any sport, making a game often played by children into something professional, where they put in as much effort as they can. I can find myself enjoying this unlike some other sports.
The sportsmanship is world class!!!
Epic match between two of the favourites, i stay hooked till the end. A chase tag anime will be very cheesy. Imagine characters doing tiger leaps, sudden direction changes, kansei doriftos on two legs, while having flashbacks of their childhood years playing tag. That, and the rest of their teammates analyzing and chatting, talking entire paragraphs in less than one in-universe second.
The main character is a passionate underdog (male teen). Parents disapprove of the sport but nice grandpa said go for it. The antagonist is a snobbish, 1 in a century talent. Chases cats for training. 😂
We'd love to create a Manga storyline and already have a few ideas.
I love the broadcasting guy. Dude's commentary is on point . Bring this tag competition to grade schools ,somebody,please.....
Enjoyed this more than I thought I would
I just love the respect between both teams even when Davis and ohar turn when ohar hurt himself Davis stopped to check him mad respect to him and both teams
Strange comment easy lover
Couldn't wait for this :D So pumped!! I hope this is a match at eye level :P
I just found out about this game show, and it became my favourite thing to watch ! Man i would love to be in a team and play !
When i was younger i acualy played this soo much at my home and i still do its soo fun i hope this gets more faimous i like you guys you all have my vote for, Best chanells out
A lot of people have been asking for more info on the group tables so we just posted an update on the community tab. Here's the link: kzhead.infoUgx5FqVVZ90OCe6LjId4AaABCQ
Espaiiclayy when they get close and dont tag. Its exhilarating
I WANT TO PLAY!
Hollywood Freerunners could've definately won if Ohar didn't hurt himself. HF almost made an insane comeback but being outnumbered takes it's toll on the stamina of the runners... Great match, I love this sport!
Yeah, could have been a very different situation if Omar was still there. Thanks a lot for the support!!
I think GNF had it covered. They didn't even use Mike Dario so the numbers were the same on both sides.
Only in the 21st century can such a game exist: the childhood game of tag, plus the more adult sport of parkour. This is, outside of Olympic level gymnastics, actually quite satisfying to watch from time to time.
Brings back so many childhood memories. It was the only game I could play.
This is the first time that I watch a new sport that really provides insane challenge. Great design.
Very nice match w/ the strongest teams of this championship! GNF is back on the Quad! 💪
Yup, definitely two of the strongest contenders!!
You could FEEL the tension in this match!
Don't know how I got here but I'm loving it here.
this is something i have been meaning to watch but kept forgetting about
2:30 thats a hard hit wish he is fine
Amazingly, he was fine and continued competing the next day!!
@@WorldChaseTag Thank God
@@WorldChaseTag really?!! Wow. Kudos to him
Just after the event he auditioned for an action part and got it! These stuntmen are indestructible!
@@WorldChaseTag maybe you guys should consider some protection for athletes. at least head helmet
7:41 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Nice try
Yup - total commitment to the tag!!
Got done dirty
this is surprisingly highly entertaining
Love this! Needs to be a national college sport!
Strange comment easy lover
Davis is a beast! Makes zero mistakes.
Yup, very cool and collected and always seemed to make the right decision. We're hoping to start creating athlete profiles at some point and his would be very interesting!
Dan Dawson the commentator calls him "The Iceman"
The Ice Man! 🥶💪
Wish there were standings after each match so I can understand the impact of the results and where the other teams are in comparison.
yeah- maybe up on their website?😳
Yeah, we may start to release the standings as community posts.
Everyone's won one time and lost one time. It's really weird now. But enjoyable.
@@geoffreyporter6373 They have but the points system is not evenly doled out. GNF are going through to the quarter finals while HF has to fight one or two more times. And I think Enzo movement is out or if not out basically has to win a bunch more matches to win
@@geoffreyporter6373 5B hasn't lost, they won both games
So are vans the optimal free running shoe? I'd think that basketball or volleyball shoes would be best in this court
damn now i found my another favourite sport
Lets goooooo! I've been waiting all week for this!!
Thanks a lot!! Next match out this Friday!!
The wait is over! 😂
Why does KZhead recommend this at 2am and I watch it
Regardless of where in the world you are, 2:00am is the golden hour for Chase Tag!
Lmao omg tell me how it's 2am right now for real 😂
this is so satisfying to watch
love the sportsmanship non of them are toxic or being rude just straight up having fun
I was already watching the video by the time I got the notification!!
I haven't got a notification yet
Ha - very nice!!
same😂
That pre notification gang! 🔔 😅💪
Who else is waiting for the announcer to finish the "Athletes Ready" with a "Gladiators ready"
No one
I felt that Mr Toorock (Readyman for this event) really started to find his rhythm & voice in this match. Maybe that's what made it so good!
This brings tears to my eyes: 🥺🥺🥺🥺😭😭😭so beautiful. Every little kids' dream.
this was surprisingly exciting to watch.
8:16 Some of the best low down work I've seen in this game! Love the new styles coming in!
That was an awesome crawling stretch. Would love to see a whole match on all 4's! Out of memory I remember seeing some amazing ground work from Luciano (5 Borough), Mike (GNF) Eric (APK Blue), Frank (APK Gray), Evan (Hub) and Seth & Jason (Apex)
@@WorldChaseTag Well, Luciano is clearly part snake. The way he moves is amazing and very distinctive.
I just watched the first chase and wtf are you doing GNF? Edit: oh Edit: nevermind Edit: wow now I get why they are handled as title favourites Edit: what are you doing Edit: nevermind. What a match
You have to admit that the evader made it really hard for gnf.
@@felipeviana6215 yes that's true it was well done
Ha - they definitely pulled it back but didn't make it easy for themselves!!
man! that was fun! first time ive watched this sport! parkour works well in this.
I found something new to like thanks! New sub
I just discover WCT and this is so amazing! It's nerve wrecking and it made me feel so nervous! Hope that I can do this in the future, maybe not for professional level but for fun. ^_^
We hope so too Princess!

ok what in the world I just found out about this sport today and the adrenaline I get just by watching is surreal. This is way too cool
I didn't ever imagined that this could be a professional sport with parkour elements, very cool
