As we exit the stage one playoffs with Vancouver Titans emerging as the champs winning a cool $200,000 winners pool, we take a look back at how all the teams fared during their first seven games and what improvements they could make, starting with the Pacific Division.
We’re nearing the end of Stage One and only the NYXL have clinched a spot in the Stage playoffs. By the end of Week 4 things should be a lot clearer about who will be playing in the end of stage tournament.
The opening week of the Overwatch League 2019 season saw plenty of nail-biting games, surprise results and interesting team compositions, and with it, a whole lot of information on what to expect from teams for the rest of stage one.
As we enter the last week of Stage Three there are still two spots open for Stage Three playoffs and plenty of teams that still have a shot to at least snag that brand new 4th seed.
Thursday was maybe one of the best days of matches from the entire season. It wasn’t the three straight map 5s that we had last Saturday, but two reverse sweeps and an unreal Oasis between London and Boston made it incredibly exciting. With three of those teams tasked with playing again today we’ll see if they can keep it up.
After a huge upset and another incredible Philadelphia vs. Houston match, Friday promises another couple high quality matches and possibly a Dragons win?
On Friday we have the three winners from Wednesday taking on the three losers and because we haven’t learned our lessons yet, 5 of today’s 6 picks are the favorites.
As Stage Three gets underway on Wednesday we’ll have the chance to see three different teams try to integrate new players on the fly as well as if Seoul can return to dominance after a rough end to Stage Two.
In the current state of Overwatch League there are 144 roster spots available. As the player signing/transfer window closes on Tuesday 126 of those 144 spots are currently filled. Only two teams, Houston and Philadelphia currently house the max 12 players on their roster.
