Google Translate is still definitely not a threat to human translation:
"In order to gain the upper hand, we would have to go all out in the next round," translates to, "é †åºã§ã¯ã€å„ªä½ã‚’å¾—ã‚‹ãŸã‚ã«ã€æˆ‘ã€…ã¯æ¬¡ã®ãƒ©ã‚¦ãƒ³ãƒ‰ã§ã€ã™ã¹ã¦ã®å¤–出ã—ãªã‘れã°ãªã‚‰ãªã„。" Which means, "Sequentially, to gain superiority, in the next round, we'll have to put everything outside." Unless you're translating for some sort of moving-based reality TV show, I don't see the result as being remarkably accurate.

"In order to gain the upper hand, we would have to go all out in the next round," translates to, "é †åºã§ã¯ã€å„ªä½ã‚’å¾—ã‚‹ãŸã‚ã«ã€æˆ‘ã€…ã¯æ¬¡ã®ãƒ©ã‚¦ãƒ³ãƒ‰ã§ã€ã™ã¹ã¦ã®å¤–出ã—ãªã‘れã°ãªã‚‰ãªã„。" Which means, "Sequentially, to gain superiority, in the next round, we'll have to put everything outside."
