Still think a team like Special/Maxpax could win it all. | ||

I mean personally I think what they were doing is also a garbage 2v2 strat. Firefly sacks himself in the early game by cannon rushing. For the rest of the game he feeds all his income to Silky. Silky shares control with Firefly. They are playing archon mode 1v2, with extra steps. E: And it's doubly strange because Firefly is a much stronger player than Silky. So we give up the stronger part of the team to prop up the weaker one for no net benefit. | ||

Also, it does help that WTL 2v2 has more prize money and a stronger player roster than any 2v2 tourney before it. It probably won't supplant 1v1, but maybe there's an appetite for more of these competitions going forward? I thought some of production like the live player comms were great, and an objective benefit over 1v1. | ||
