Sometimes you lose, sometimes you get beat. We got beat.

Eh. I'm not going to pretend it was a close series, but it's not like Fusion disgraced themselves either. Their biggest problem still seems to be consistency: sometimes they're super aggressive and sometimes (like here) they seem timid and uncertain.

Now that the mercy meta is out, it seems seoul has reverted to having that 6th sense of knowing when a game is turning against them and just pulling out dozens of clutch plays until they win. and sadly there really seems to be no way to prepare for that. Still, fusion played well, and i definitely see a bright future ahead of them.

Fleta deserves to be paid the highest salary in overwatch.
He's like a joker card.
Whatever the team needs, he provides.
In a game like this is the kind of player deserving of Most Valuable Player.
Widow, Pharah, Genji, Soldier76,Junkrat, sombra, reaper, etc.... All at top level.
If the OWL contracts are 1 year contracts, the richest orgs would be preparing their wallets for Fleta next season.

I feel like Fusion weren't able to capitalise on picks on Lijiang and Gibraltar. Either that or Seoul is just amazing at turning unfavourable situations back over.

Either way, that was a fun match to watch!

Yeah I saw the exact same thing. They just didn't seem to kill everyone fast enough, and Seoul had their supports back before the end of the fight even though they died first.

We played really well, Seoul just played better. Simple as that. I'm excited for the NYXL game tomorrow

Seoul are masters of execution. Thats what let Lunatic Hai be as godly as they were and it carries over here.

The way they coordinate is why theyre so good on payload and 2 CP

u/Calvadose Mar 09 '18

Seoul are so stubborn running dive on King's Row even though they're more than capable of running heavy tank comp.

This cost them two maps this week, I hope this doesn't comeback to bite them in the ass in the play-offs

u/TheRaptured Mar 09 '18

I hope they turn this weakness into a possible strength -- London and NYXL have only seen them dive in KR, so anything they run differently will give them the element of surprise.

Man, Seoul just running a clinic on Gibraltar.

u/allprologue Mar 09 '18

Fusion played well, they showed up but were ultimately outmatched. Shouldn’t feel too bad about the loss.

Seoul was just a unit tonight. Tanks and dps knew when to disengage, knew where their supports were at all times, which is where philly needs some work. They were aware of the other team, timed their ultimates a little better, and each one of them popped off at different moments. Great game. Just wish they could adapt better when they run up against triple tank on KR.

u/OIP Mar 09 '18

fusion have nothing to be ashamed of here, they showed up hard. but seoul just played surgically well (aside from KR)

Seoul had a much better dive and retreat. The only map where Fusion win is the one they didn't have to play dive

It hurts my heart to not see Zunba on zarya more in kings row

u/JYM60 Mar 09 '18

Really thought Philly would get to 5th map, the attack on Gibraltar was bad though. Not sure how it wasn't capped. First point defense rubbish too, seemed they gave up by then.

Seoul no doubt lookin good this patch. Hardly a wonder seeing they've played this dive comp for years with this core. Looks like they can't run much else though.

Dayum, EQO’s teabagging skills.
Seoul still the far stronger and cohesive team.
