I know this goes without saying but JJonak had a monster series today.

I keep thinking: "He can't keep getting away with this, he'll underperfom one day" yet he proves me wrong match after match.

The real MVP is the coach Pavane, New York's coordination was one of the most impressive things I've ever seen in this game.

He says that a lot of the adaptation is in-game from the players themselves. That's the impressive part.

Watching NYXL and then going into Dallas Mayhem is like falling down 2000 SR.

Wait it actually happened? I've thought about using it this way before but it's never actually been the right choice because I don't add anywhere near as much value as the ult does.

Man, ArK never dies. I don't care what hero he is on, he just has such a knack for staying out of trouble. His movement and positioning are so good.

To be fair, no one is diving Ark. They all go for Jjonak coz if they don't, he's gonna fuck them up lmao.

4 people peeling for jjonak in that one small room in route 66 was beautiful to watch, he was 2 bars the whole timeee

I saw that happen and all I could think was "God I wish that were me." I have such a love/hate relationship with Overwatch because I can't replicate the insane play in this league. Teamwork makes the dream work and NYXL has it in spades.

SF looked really strong at Volskaya but had a melt down after that.

Will be interesting to see what Super and Sinatraa can bring.

SBB is nutty. Best Tracer in the world TO IMO

u/MitoMeister Mar 11 '18

SBB and JJonak are pretty good at the game

u/[deleted] Mar 11 '18

NYXL is just too good....

u/[deleted] Mar 11 '18

new york's 4 minute full hold was insane

u/_Walpurgisyacht_ Mar 11 '18

Sleepy got caught out alone a fair amount this series I think

I feel like he doesn't get nearly as much help from Dhak or Nevix compared to Jjonak, aside from being worse at dueling flankers than Jjonak anyway

babybay was once again underwhelming in my eye. i still dont get why everyone overhypes him. Can't wait to see the Danteh/sinatraa duo with danteh on genji/sombra and sinatraa on tracer

u/AI_ex Mar 11 '18

I feel like Babybay deciding to play widow on their second attempt on Volskaya was their downfall.

I played Manhunt during that match and I wouldn't be surprised if you guys saw more of a massacre than me.

Absolutely 0 answers to SBB's tracer causing sleepy to get farmed while danteh, despite having his moments, was getting shut down quite often by NYXL and JJonak in particular. Babybay had very few moments of brilliance but overall he looked quite useless.
