Runaway vs GC Busan HYPE
4-2 Runaway. GC Busan exploited KDP and LH's DPS duos relying too much on their team for support. We know Stitch and Haksal play just as well with little to no support from their team. Also KDP and LH likely don't care much about APEX anymore with the acquisition/OWL. This will be a close game nonetheless, but I gotta give it to Runaway.
Cambreh [#30]In season 2, Runaway beat LH 3-2 in quarters and lost 3-4 in finals. This season they beat Busan 3-2 in quarters. So it's confirmed 4-3 for GC Busan.
including a 3-1 lead? monkaS

I'm going to puke if this happens.
LordOfHorns [#40]That attack by Runaway was amazing on Hanamura. Very well executed
What even was GC Busans attack on Hanamura? They didn’t poke with the mcree, they kept backing out when they could have easily taken the fight, they played so cautiously when they absolutely couldn’t afford to

You can't really poke with Mccree when both supports are playing left side. Need to bait people on point but JJanu had very good peels and Haksal-Tizi were applying so much pressure, with Stitch constantly almost never dying. Can't win Hanamura when you trade kills. Also Bumper did surprisingly well on Ana.
Drex [#44]Spawn on 2nd point Anubis is like having a 7th man
I agree that 2CP can be rough to full cap, but imo dive has a part to play in it too, especially against fast and stally heroes. Cause bar an insane sword (that is almost always countered by either primal rage, Dva/Lucio boops, support ults, Sombra) or a multi kill bomb (which are rare), getting a team kill is almost impossible.
I don't know why teams don't swap to heroes with possible team wiping ults like Zarya and Rein with an Ana. Might lose a few fights but when you get those ults and they're well executed it's a fast clean up.
I guess this plays on the old patch still where those 2 are not at their best, but maybe worth a shot ?

faroskalin [#59]I'm crying.. People are going to blame TiZi for that jump but they would not have won had he not jumped to be honest
He shouldn't have died in the first place had he gotten harmony orb from Kox, he was at 100 or less hp for a good 5 seconds. They would've gotten trance and primal rage faster and most likely won that fight.
Runaway fucked up on 2nd point defense though, that's where they lost the game imo.

Yeah that Barrier engage on Blade wasn't good.. They definitely could have held under the bridge. But even as a Runaway fan, I got to say, GC Busan just is the better team. Their coordination and especially Profit's blade timing usage was just better. Haksal was largely ineffective once GC Busan figured out to disengage or counter his blades.

For 2CP like Anubis where the spawn is too close to the point the spawn healing should be turned off. Watching the tanks and sombra use spawn as a healer and still contest the point is broken. Even on Hanamura on 2nd point you usually see zen or ana with lucio sit near spawn to use it as an escape incase they get dived. Makes 2CP unfun to watch IMO.

Busan's disengages were clutch, and they did play better overall no doubt. But you could see that Bumper is not an experienced Lucio when it comes to the boops and that cost them a lot when dealing with blades and Tracer/Winston, and TiZi is way too selfless sometimes.
Hagopeun and Woohyal also played amazing starting from the Gibraltar game.

That too. Spawn rooms should probably not heal in general, and definitely not allow double swapping to get abilities back.
