I did not expect coming back home from work to a situation where SSLT leads Basilisk.

But Firefly taking a game from Reynor is big!
Basilisk in the last chance saloon as far as this series goes.

Wp by firefly but reynor's zvp isnt the best
|
Reynor making sure we get an ace match!
It's clearly time for ace Rotti...

What in the actual fuck is going on

This is becoming very similar to the first game between Firefly and Reynor.
I'm unsure why they didn't send Serral as the ace tbh.
EDIT:
That Ling drop did some major work for Reynor.
It looked dicey when his Dropperlord play was stalling out, but he's turned it around now.
Vipers should finish it off because the Disruptors will be useless.

This point and the win against SR probably just won SSLT their relegation fight.
|
Aw, that's a real let-down. We almost had a proper genuinely exciting result
|
This point and the win against SR probably just won SSLT their relegation fight.
If they keep playing well like this they are certainly at least contending for playoff. They have fucking 8 points after round 4, which is already enough to avoid relegation in previous seasons.

Starving Camels are the new Team GP, frequently performing above expectations.

And they are yet to play iG and PH, six point from them (harder vs PH), plus a few points here and there (can totally see them taking points off TL and PsiStorm), they are rightfully in contention for 7th which, historically has a cut off point of 16-18 pts.

Maru and Solar are still undefeated, Onsyde are cleaning house right now.
|
Onsyde has been sending the same player order since the beginning, team should try to snipe that. Today SR should have sent Byun first, then Harstem and Lambo.

maru is going to read this thread and they will mix it up next week

Did Serral lost one map already?

Did Serral lost one map already? nope, those 3 are still undefeated in WTL at the moment, but 2 of them are on the same team so that means Onsyde is doing very well. Granted the toughest part of their schedule is yet to come, which is the last 4 weeks of the season.

SpeciaL losing 0-2 to DnS is shocking. Not the first time he blips like that ... last season that also happened

PsiStorm learning the hard way that they do need a highly qualitied No. 2 player.

It doesn't help when then 2nd good player just isn't bringing in the points he should be bringing in :/

At least PsiStorm can breath a little bit with SLT and iG coming up.

He could be a sniper in TvT but they need a better player to take some weight off MaxPax.
Looking forward, their only "sure win" match are against Invictus and Berserker who are prime for relegation. I dont think they can catch the other team to make the playoff push.

I don't think we should dismiss them so quickly. This weekend was their first hard blow in the playoff race, but it is probable that at least one team will make it to the playoff despite getting swept by DKG-Basilisk-Abydos (and Onsyde), They are definitely not where they want to be, but if they can win at least the majority of their head-to-head vs SSLT, SLT, TL and SR, they still have a shot.

They just don t have any solid 2nd player anymore. Liquid had the same Problem for multiple seasons as well. For them it was even worse though, as Clem was strugling in WTL way more than MaxPax
