I have faith that Dallas can take this series, just depends on if they decide to show up and play.
3-1 Fuel

3-2 Fuel unless Asher puts on the carry pants then 3-2 LA

I think Dallas has the potential to win this.
I'd love to explain why but I really have no idea.
3-1 Fuel.
I guess. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Effect had some personal issues, so I sure hope he's available in this game. Going to be tough without their #1 carry.. Taimou ain't delivering like he used to :(

LAG always looks shit on their 2nd match of every week, so this will be a battle of which team can throw harder

It's sad that that's true. Both of these teams at their best could be top 5, but they're just not consistent enough.

Theres no way anyone can predict the outcome honestly. Too random.

Hopefully effect plays, I need to beat Saya in fantasy

Eichenwald: Gladiators should take this map, Dallas Fuel has yet to win Eichenwald
Anubis: Fuel has taken the top teams to double and sometimes triple overtime on this map. I think they will win this one.
Oasis: Fuel took this map from NYXL and dominated Dragons on this map. They should win this one easily.
Dorado: Could go either way, but I'm betting on Gladiators. Fuel has only won this map once and that was with a full hold.
Lijang: If we go to this map, I think Fuel can win. Fuel has looked really good on KOTH maps.
Overall score: 3-2 Fuel

The long awaited match: seagull vs surefour. Flashback to early 2016

What a world we live in when Fuel's (basically EnVyUs's) best map type is KOTH. How times have changed

4-0 LAG

could be a very interesting match if Fuel got their shit together, which they have shown they can at times, but afraid it will most likely be a 4-0 Glads

I still reminisce about EnVy's Dorado with Hulk on symmetra with a first point hold.

Hmm really hope is something OWL related (stress, or something) and not something serious outside of the game.

GL to the man with a mission!

Fun Fact: Out of all of their 10 games so far, this is only the 3rd time Dallas has won the first map. The last was in in their Week 3 3-2 loss against the Uprising. Additionally, this is their first win on Eichenwalde.

Effect will truly be missed but I think people don't give seagul enough credit. He may not be the best in every way but the man is experienced and one of the smartest players in OWL.

This is the Dallas I think everyone was expecting at the start of OWL

That's the Dallas I love.

Fuel seem to have almost perfected the art of defending.

I think, at the very least, not having EFFECT for these last two games will prove a good training exercise for the Fuel. They need to learn to not rely on his carry and they need every single member of the team to be putting in their equal part, and I think not having him for these games will help them with that.

I genuinely have mad respect for Taimou. He went from a troll who got fined during APEX to grinding like crazy in the past few weeks. The dedication he put in for him and his team is incredible, and it shows. Props to you timo :)
