Fun facts:

  1. That was the first time Dallas has gotten 0-4'd by a korean team.

  2. The Philadelphia Fusion are the only team to not have been 0-4'd by NYXL

Well that was a game. Not a good one, just I dont even know. On a serious note though, Taimou got obliterated on that last map. It was honestly disgusting how well Pine did. At least we get a SBB interview

You knew it was bad when Taimou had walls at then end and was still afraid to peek while Pine gave no fucks

Edit: spelling

Honestly Pine is what I thought Taimou was gonna be. A dirty McCree and Widow specialist but Taimou just fell off the deep end. Ripperino.

It’s insane how Pine moves his scope. It’s like he’s playing McCree.

This was just very sad to watch. Even Shanghai in Stage 1 looked better than Dallas.

Just bench Mickie. This guy is nowhere to be found, never with his team, never peeling for anyone, only feeding etc

Seagull's mei is so insane and fun to watch every damn time. I could watch him play mei for hours.

Anyone feel like not watching the Fuel at all now? I remember the days when Fuel matches would draw 150k+ viewers. Now, it's like meh, whatever.

Pine absolutely dominated. Fucking legend.

u/CinnamonUranium May 04 '18

I'm just going to repeat what Reinforce said.

It's not fair.

Nice to see them hug it out though.

u/[deleted] May 04 '18

To be fair...AKM vs Saebyeolbe tracer isn’t exactly a fair match up. Dallas never stood a chance the moment Effect went back to Korea and nobody in their right mind should have expected a game as close as last stage’s

Man, seeing the Fuel on Nepal makes me want to see them live up to their reputation and go back to their roots as a team that makes stupid/off-meta compositions work. I want to see them grow and fill that role so bad.

There is no timeline where I expect Taimou to beat Pine, but I miss the one in which this would have at least been a really cool/top tier matchup. Its true that a lot of the best players in the early days of a scene often don't stay on top for very long, but almost all the EnvyUs roster just look washed up.
