I would love to see Fuel give NYXL a run for their money, especially being a Fuel fan, but I just don't see it happening.
4-0 NYXL

NYXL 3-1

3-2 Dallas you gotta believe!

LOL!!!!!!!! Sure.. If NYXL runs 6 bots instead of their main roster.

4-0 NYXL unfortunately

Dallas lul. They should just forfeit the match. There is no way dallas can take a map in their current state.

The only slight hope for Dallas is that NYXL aren't quite as dive heavy as some teams. Pine will often run the McCree, and they play roadhog comps as well. That being said, they are just the better team all around. Will need a miracle from Fuel to take a map here, let alone the win

DAL 1 : 3 NYE

NYXL seems to "struggle" when other teams can succesfully put their back line under pressure (Jjonak in the first place), that's why they lost vs the Fusion (besides the "oh but we were focusing on the match with Seoul"), Jjonak was under constant pressure and dying a lot.

I don't think Fuel can achieve that unfortunately.

Rough times for dallas but maybe they can pull it together and just focus on winning the matches instead of focusing on their past performance and expectations. Maybe stage 2 has better things ahead for them with the meta shifting.

Stage 2 will be different for sure for some of these teams (Fuel but for example also Mayhem), will it be enough to bounce back thou?

Inb4 Dallas wakes up and wins and Effect comes into all of your homes to slap you all one by one

It most likely won't happen but if it does I would allow Effect the right to slap me if I ever meet him

I think NYL will win 3-1 or 4-0.
I hope we'll see Pine play a lot like yesterday!

Now that I've been living in NY for three months, I can be one of those people that are so sure that NY is the best place on earth, an everything else sucks and can go die.

NYXL 4-0

of course NYXL will win, but I do think fuel will surprise us, maybe we'll even get a 3-2, though that's probably unlikely

My heart says Fuel but my brain says this will be almost as quick as the previous game

Effect be like " Why the fuck did I join a non Korean team "

Dallas has become a pitstop for OWL teams to pick up a few extra wins. Sad feed.

They can also do that off SF, FM and SD aswell.

DF hater proven wrong!

xQc casting this match in his discord mate it soooo hype, highly recommend you guys tune in once, hes so insightful.

That pulse bomb legit fell off, and this is the LAN servers so it shouldn't have the desync that the servers we all play on sometimes have

This match with a competent Genji on the Fuel side would have been even closer.
GG both, at least Dallas still can show signs of good play, unlike... not gonna say it.

God, I just want Dallas to figure it out so badly. You can like see those flashes of a really great team here and there, and it makes it all the more frustrating that they suck.

wait
did "best OWL player" just lost a map?

WADDUP NOW PINE WOOOOOOOOO

Rip Pine's win streak

It was the spectator bug. Custa has confirmed that Effect didn't see the stick on his screen. https://twitter.com/Custa/status/959920830393151492

I find it ridiculous that a bug like that is still in the game, even if it is just the spectator cam. It's been known about since the start of overwatch esports, and you'd think with how big blizzard want OWL to be, they'd make sure the spectator cam was correct, especially for potentially game changing plays.
