Should be a slog to the finish…I say 3-2 Spitfire…

Dang…Dragons are out…at the very least…they can try to make it as high as they can!

i am ALWAYS rooting for shanghai especially today bc i dont really care for the spitfire

profit best player in the world btw PogU

They gotta focus on the big picture now…get those wins so that they can make the Season playoffs or at least the Play-In Tournament…

Shanghai may be out, but they carry the hopes of 2 teams with them. If London win, then no team with 4 losses (that’s Florida and LAG) will be able to make top 8 anymore

Atlanta, if they win their next series, easily in and will have greater win/loss on maps then Defiant by the looks of things.
Fusion definitely need to win their next series.
Charge and Seoul are in a dangerous spot. Charge need to be the first to defeat the Titans, which is huge pressure.
Dynasty have the pressure of not losing to London and NYXL in Stage 1 a second time. And also getting into Playoffs on top of that.
Outlaws might have a chance if they 4-0 their last series of Stage 1 to get a +3.
Boston needs their last two series to be 3-1 or better to get anywhere. Eternal needs 4-0 for the next two series.
Hunters probably going to be eliminated, since they at -8, they will only break even and very unlikely that will get you into the playoffs. Mayhem as well is pretty much kicked.

The Dragons look completely lost…I doubt DST syndrome is to blame here…

What? How did they not think about using their ults… Man their coaches have ruined Gamsu…

dding is in! hopefully he’ll help turn things around for shanghai with his sombra

I also wonder why she plays D.Va and not Zarya, I doubt their Zarya player is better than Geguri.

The Spitfire are doing very well against the Dragons here on Point C cos they are shutting down the Shanghai Sombra play…

It’s because in any Trip Tank deathball, it’s usually better to put the DPS on Zarya than D.Va, because of her using heavy tracking similar to a hitscan.

Now, in the rare occasions that a DPS is a good D.Va, they absolutely should put the Off-Tank on Zarya in any deathball comp, because having a good Zarya is so important (Looking at you, Paris, Finnsi is a great Zarya, Nico is a great Dva, stop playing Soon/SDB on Zarya).

None of the Shanghai DPS are strong D.Va’s though, so it’s the right deicsion to put one of them on Zarya, and push Geguri over to D.Va.

Um hello Dragons where was this yesterday against Fuel?

Coaches decide… she is the dedicated DvA player, and usually the DPS/Hitscan player is given Zarya.

Correct the first map score, it was 2-0 top London.
