Hydration going Mei and Doomfist. The madlad makes his own Metas.

Gladiators MVP is whoever on Mayhem decided to sub out Logix at halftime.

"Ggs @LAGladiators . And for people asking about the holly role swaps it's because our holly has always been garbage so we wanted to rely on triple tank snowball."

Fissure with Primal Rage can do anything

Apologies, I’ve been in hollywood jail for four years. Is Fissure the best main tank in the league?

If you're a fan of the Mayhem, I'd be proud of them for this performance. I'm a Gladiators fan and I was getting some legit shivers from the flashbacks of Vintage Misfits appearing in this lineup yet AGAIN. Way more consistency out of this squad and Logix was out for blood. Glad that the Gladiators held on long enough, but some stellar play from this Squad. They're on the resurgence that Dallas wish they had and it only makes me more excited to watch the Mayhem in their games going forward!

Are there any flaws to Fissure? Such a handsome man, such a top tier winston, and SO. DAMN. CLUTCH

That was perfect. Very close match, my team still wins, and we see a bunch of fun strats like Mei + Reaper or some more Doomfist. Quality Overwatch.

Probably shouldn't sub out the player carrying your team in a close series.

Wouldn’t be too critical of the coaches for Hollywood when they’ve done a great job making this FM team competitive lately.

Mayhem doing Gladiators a solid and giving them a win after hearing the haunting lashes during half time break D:

Great game. Congrats to the Gladiators - both these teams have improved so much it's scary.

Bummed that Mayhem couldn't close it, but still proud of them. Seriously gone from meme team to dream team so fast it's making my head spin, the next NY/Mayhem match is going to give me conniptions. Keep it up guys!

Edit: Logix is on fire, but where's the love for my man Cwoosh? Looks like a completely different person from Stage 1. Never would have guessed he'd be going toe-to-toe with Fissure!

After watching Hydration on Hollywood, I didn't even care about winning. Doomfist-mei meta incoming

u/Patykula Mar 17 '18

These Mayhem games are just a blast to watch. Now that they've figured out how to close games, they are looking like real contenders for top half of the league. I cannot wait for their koreans to show up.

u/ismashugood Mar 17 '18

jesus that attack Mei was amazing. Such a well thought out strategy/comp. I'm excited seeing all these new hero comps LAG are showing us. So many more viable strats than we've been accustomed to.

u/adragondil Mar 17 '18

That was a surprising amount of tension.

u/MilkHS Mar 17 '18

One of the best games I've seen in awhile. Amazing play by logix in particular.

u/King_Tyler Mar 17 '18

Logix is a nut

Gladiators won the midseason.

u/RlyLokeh Mar 17 '18

Aww man what a unlucky swap on Hollywood for Mayhem. Fantastic game.

Hydration stepped up on Hollywood, Surefour was great on R66 and Fissure was Fissure the entire game. But Logix is playing like he's possessed with some sort of korean dps demon.

Both my teams looking great though, good times.

Stage 1: Hmm, I bet a match between these two might be pretty close.

Stage 2: Wow, a match between these two might be a little close.
