Boston is out. Atlanta is out…

I don’t even know who to root for.

I want to see Shock move on but I think Toronto is the better team, either way a former Uprising member will be moving on and I can at least take solace in that.

I’m giving it to Toronto.

Well here we go. Nervous but GO SHOCK!

Oh yeah, Toronto SHOULD win.

Come on, Toronto. Let’s make this all-Canadian stage final happen.

Expecting a 6 map 3-2 final score here, no idea who’s winning though. I’ll back Toronto, just because they’ve looked so much better since Neko became available

If Shock wins this, I will play Overwatch tomorrow.

If Toronto wins, I will play Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[st].

Anyways, going to bed. I may not be here tomorrow while me and the entire town go down to the State Championship and try to will my high school to a victory, but I will sure as hell be here for the Grand Finals.

Enjoy the matches, y’all… And as always, PLEASE keep a man on the objective, help control the outbreak of Charlie Niners. Later, y’all.

also i was gifted the shock twitch chat emote yesterday so im also rooting for them

I think this will be the closest matchup in the playoffs.

Haven’t watched many Shock games, is Rascal regularly in?

He is this stage. He was a ghost last season.

If Shock lose, I’m going to launch Overwatch and bash some skulls with Brigitte.

wait when did toronto get neko from boston?

It swaps a reasonable amount tbh. Either Rascal or Architect I believe, with Babybay and Striker bench warming

I MISS BABYBAY SO MUCH :sob::sob: i hope we see him next stage
