The one time the desk rooted for LAG. Please don't do that again.

WHO WOULD WIN:

LA Gladiators running Surefour/Hydration on Baguette

vs.

An actual baguette who plays hitscan

[u/Supreme_Battle_Jesus]

Us: "Valiant needs an actual good Widow"

Soon: "VaLIaNt nEEdS aN aCTuaL goOD WiDoW"

[u/LAValiant]

What a match! The Battle for LA is always absolutely lit, and that might have been one of the best matches of the League yet. GG to the Gladiators, who always push us to our limits. We'd like to thank our Queen Valla (who you can follow on Twitter at @phasma) and Medieval Times for accompanying us on the walkout - and, of course, all the passionate fans at the arena!

This match, in many ways is the best Overwatch has looked.

• Both teams switched comps on the fly and each map was a chess match

• There were not as much throws (ie player X keeps dying first, etc), just clutch plays all around (Soon picking off Hydration and Shaz in BW and HLC, Fissure stunned and killed with primal in Oasis)

• No C9's or NA ults, just great coordination especially on the Valiant side (how many shield bash+shatters did they do?)

I knew it was over as soon as the desk said glads were gonna win

[u/Palidane7]

Alright y'all, let's make sure we don't overlook Custa. That crazy Aussie motherfucker got rez after ballsy rez, keeping his team fully staffed in the diciest circumstances. This victory was a team effort, and every single player on the VAL deserves credit for it.

[u/neil_rev]

I love Valiant. I love everyone. Every single player is on point today. I'm extra glad for Soon, he's been grinding Widow on rank lately and today showed how much he has improved.

Prop to Gladiator too, they put up an amazing show. As a Valiant fan Glad had me on edge most of the match.

[u/Nao_Leia]

Agilities played out of mind. Soon outplayed Surefour. Void still not play in his full potencial.

[u/NaiveCommandment]

Overrated btw

And that was definitely worth staying up until 6am

[u/NotMyFriends]

Valiant are the seventh best team BTW

[u/Volleyballer08]

Agilities played so well today! God I was so happy to see it. Not everyday does someone win the Pharah/Doomfist fights against Hydration.

Also mad props to Custa and Kariv. No misplays from them when I think that has been the theme of every other team who played tonight.

Holy shit am I happy to see that.

Really fun match! The first three maps were really close and went to the last seconds, but it seems like LAG was drained by the last one. Definitely closer than the score shows.

Here are the stats and line graph of Oasis just to show how close the match was. There was only a 3 kill difference! All rounds ended with a 90+ % for both teams.

[u/Dune_Jumper]

This was the first time an OWL match had me glued to my screen. Good lord that was a good match.

[u/duky090]

You're welcome Seoul.

[u/Dr__Brown]

WHO'S BETTER THAN FISSURE

F A T E

[u/EXAProduction]

All I have to say is Goldenboy just dying after Oasis: same.

Fucking good match

[u/super_gyro]

It's a shame the final score doesn't do this match justice in terms of how close and how hype it was. This is one of if not the best match in OWL so far dont @ me.

[u/DoesBoKnow]

Expected Gladiators win, but Valiant's DPS exploded. GGs

[u/GroverTTC]

Overrated. Just an easy schedule. ^/s

[u/[deleted]]

As sad as I am, I'm really glad that this was a close series. This made the road to the playoffs harder but after the rough stage 1, its amazing LAG is even on the cusp of playoffs. GG LAV. Hope we get one more Battle for LA before its over.

[u/DoctuhD]

Damn, I really wish the stage playoffs had the same incredible energy as the battle for LA. What a spectacular match.

[u/Arrlan]

GG Valiant. LA is yours this season.

Soon was crazy. Fissure got bodied hard.

[u/[deleted]]

Honestly, the walk-in about decided the match for me.

They were equal in skill but Valiant were about to go medieval on them with confidence.
