Do I just watch for goodies?
Seeing more double sniper is depressing.

5

My head hurts, can we wait a bit to process the last game?

6

HELLO GLADIATORS? :phone: THIS IS THE LONDON SPITFIRE :phone: CAN WE HAVE FISSURE BACK? :phone:

SHIELDS UP!

Without Fissure this might be a closer game then it should be but I still think LA have this. London has been struggling lately. Even though they have slowly been getting better I don’t know if it will be quick enough.

3-2 Gladiators

Still upset about Boston

Surely it’s Jjonak, surely…

As much as I want LA to win, it would be great to see the Spitfire come back. Looking forward to a great game!

I’m not really digging this format. Playoffs in sports are exiting because it’s all on the line. This double elimination format makes things feel like the it’s still the regular season. It also feels, much like the rest of the season, that the format was created to pad out the length of said season.

11

Are the all Korean teams no longer domming like in S1?

I dislike the idea of OW becoming another Starcraft, with one nation winning every time. Is Spitfire still all Korean?

12

Why is the uprising logo where the Gladiator’s should be?

13

Will profit do hanzo hmm

NYXL’s Jjonak wins the Overwatch League MVP sponsored by T-Mobile award.

Separate discussion thread for this subject is now available here:

15

congrats to jjonak for that incredibly awesome reward! i wear my excelsior zenyatta skin proudly for him

16

about the fissure thing… saw a comment somewhere saying spitfire has been preparing for him so that might be why he’s not in

after that hotba sub… it’s not so crazy

17

NYXL is still dominant but Seoul is not even in the playoffs and London is only in because of how well they did early in the season. Stage 3 and 4 were very bad for London.

18

in before JJonak is a hanzo main now

19

Don’t underestimate that.

Is Fuel still the drama team and Shanghai the meme team?
