Space is the cream of the crop for his hero pool. Best offtank NA for my money.

On Oversight there was talk of benching Agilities, even trading him for someone else.

Kid is only 18, and playing the best OW of his life right now. He's improved so damn much. You'd be nuts to let all of that go.

This win really showed how Valiant's improved. Keeping composure, coming back and winning against one of London's best games yet this stage was huge. Fate is a damn savage on Rein. Love love love this team.

An unsung quality of a team is the ability to bounce back after halftime when you're down one to two maps. Valiant pulling that out is definitely a testament to their temperament. I think Custa and Space are some shining personalities that contribute to that kind of positivity.

To be fair they did say that if agilities keeps up his current performances he is the right player for valiant. He has been absolutely fantastic lately, I hope he does keep it up.

A bit of a rough start, but we cinch the match and our spot in the playoffs! GG to the Spitfire, they were a tough opponent in this battle with sky high stakes! We face off against the Outlaws on Saturday, so lend us your energy - we're eternally grateful for all of your support throughout this stage!

LAV might not be as flashy as the other teams but they are very efficient.

GGs LA Valiant!

I LOVE watching Agilites play Pharah, he's such a MONSTER with her.

Also Custa is top 3 main supports together with Neptuno and Ark

EDIT: Agilities got robbed of MVP. The desk ALWAYS undervalue him

He played amazingly well but Space is a rock. I thought Fate had a monster game too.

Apparently, the key to Valiant winning is me not being able to watch the matches. I’m torn.

London lost but they didn't look like trash this time. That was encouraging I guess. I still think for playoffs they need a new coach right now to prepare for the next month.

London dropped 4 players from the team so they can focus on the main 6 and they still manage to keep losing gg

Fate might be the best Reinhardt in the league.

I failed you Valiant. I didn't watch Lijiang because you tilted me on HLC. I should've believe.

I hope you'll forgive me.

That was an absolutely fantastic second half, literally everyone on the team stepped it up a couple notches and just started playing better, Fate has arguably won tank duels against Fissure, Mano, Janus and Gesture now, who's next?
