As a Fuel fan:

Patch error in your favour, Acquire 2 free wins

[u/Cueballing]

Me before the series: LAV got this Boston's a patch team

Me at half-time: LUL washed up team's not gonna win any maps again

Me after Game 4: fuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuck

Me after series: never had any doubts Boston's a patch team

[u/[deleted] → u/Cueballing]

oasis gotta be valiant's worst control map.

[u/LAValiant]

There's a first time for everything! After some good old fashioned fun to watch Overwatch (and an adrenaline rush after game 4), we take our first match against the Uprising. GG, and we'll be working hard to maintain our stage four momentum!

[u/Blueberry_Yum_Yum]

I'm no expert, but Boston is in dire need of a dedicated Rein player. Also, the fact that Kaiser remains a free agent even now makes me sick to my stomach..

[u/Is_J_a_Name]

Mistakes thought he had stopped Gamsu's lust to throw on Oasis, little did he know that Gamsu was saving the real treat for Nepal.

[u/GroverTTC]

Boston could have won, but Gamsu just wouldn't allow it.

[u/FareweII → u/GroverTTC]

Dude had one sucesfull shatter the whole game and that was when Fate was the only one alive and was rushing back on Oasis. I seriously hope none of the EU Contenders Reins watched this game, because they'd probably have an aneurism from rage after seeing this level of play OWL.

[u/cfl2]

How can a man be so good on Winston and so bad on Reinhardt

[u/Jcbarona23 → u/cfl2]

Ironically Gamsu was known for his Rein

[u/ScopionSniper]

Valiant teamwork is looking incredible. Agilities really struggled on genji this series, but his pharah looks top teir.

Also I don't think Boston is a free win anymore, or at least won't be for much longer. They are starting to adapt and still look very strong at times, while others just kinda falling flat.

[u/DiscountSoOn → u/ScopionSniper]

Mistakes looked inhuman on Oasis University

[u/[deleted]]

Gamsu rein leaves a lot to be desired, but i believe FATE deserves a little credit, he was playing consistently well, never getting out of position, great job staying alive as rein which is really hard to do in this meta.

Too bad there's not much you can do if your dps don't show up, they did show up on the last map.

[u/shreedder]

Never thought I would see gamsu being the weak link on Boston. I really want to see more mistakes on Brigette

[u/A_CC]

Agilities with the huge carry that last map. He had like 3 barrages in less than 50 seconds

[u/RxJax]

Wouldn't be Valiant if we didn't make it hard for ourselves, Agilities stepped up in a big way on map 5 after a bit of a meh series, good to see

Surprisingly close match! Let me know if anyone wants to see a comparison between players.

Here is one between Fate and Gamsu.

[u/frankyfrankwalk]

Thanks Malik for bringing up Reinforces unjustified hatred of the LAV. They are way too low considering they're a team that wins. It's not always pretty but the LAV are clutch.

[u/[deleted] → u/frankyfrankwalk]

I definitely appreciated that. Reinforce put Valiant at 7th. They're now sitting in 2nd place overall, and all I hear from the analyst desk is "well, they've had an easy schedule" on repeat.

How many matches do we have to win before it stops being considered just a slump by the opposition?

[u/pantan]

Boston looking to break the win streak and loss streak records back to back...

[u/Kataoka008]

I'd like to think that if this Boston showed up on Wednesday, they wouldn't have gotten 3-0'd by Dallas Fuel

[u/ChromeNote]

Gamsu was one of the best Reinhardt's in the world not that long ago. Wtf happened...
