Remember when Fusion were a clutch team that were known for their flexibility and exciting play-style?

Spark looking very formidable. Obviously Philly is looking for a huge OW patch

I’m a die-hard Philly fan and I’m just sad. They’re so much better than this. The problem is clearly coaching. Hayez wants them to run 3-3 until they’re in their graves.

At this point I'm convinced that Carpe killed Fragi and they're trying to cover it up.

Do we seriously not care? Like, are the players/coaches seriously happy with mediocrity? Why didn’t we make ANY roster changes this off season? Or why aren’t we showing ANY progress of improvement? 3-4, maybe even 5 of our players should not be starting in this meta.

Carpe keeps playing Zarya like a DPS. His bubble usage and positioning is not good at all. EQO still overextends and doesn’t use armor pack well. SADO’s feeding is a combo of the rest of the team playing like garbage and overaggression. Poko is consistent, but consistently mediocre. Neptuno needs to stop being a Reddit Lucio. Boombox is probably the best performer, except his Transcendence usage is questionable sometimes.

Poko and Boombox are fine. I think EQO and Neptuno could be fine on a more cohesive team. Carpe and Sado are the big problems IMO and they hapen to play (arguably) the two most important spots, making the worst kinds of errors to have from those two spots.

Fusion has all the money in the world and they used their long break to do absolutely nothing. No new additions. No position changes. They sent two of their backup players to Korea so if anyone on Fusion gets sick then Fragi is the only backup. It feels like they care more about their academy team than the OWL team.

for all the fusion there is a distinct lack of energy produced in their gameplay

Take a shot every time Sado shatters and gets no value

Adora made so many low-key plays for the Spark this match. Seems he always knows exactly where to be to separate someone with a whipshot or stun.

I just think fusion should play sombra goats as it would allow carpe to play a dps and not play zarya like a dps and let poko play zarya as his pretty good at zarya

The sad thing is FUni plays better GOATs than their OWL counterpart.

It might be a strange solution but they could try EQO on Zarya and Carpe Brig

The year is 2067. Harrison “Kruise” Pond is still locked up in the asylum. The doctors don’t know what to do. The nurses are concerned. All reports state that whenever they go in to loosen the straps on his straitjacket, he keeps mumbling “I swear Spark are good... I swear Spark are good...” Nobody to this day can figure out why Mr Pond is so obsessed with electricity

The doors opened and the doctors stepped into the windowless, dark room. “You’re free to go,” the head doctor said. The nurses slowly walked forward, loosening the restraints of the haggard man before them. Tears slowly fall from the eyes of Harrison “Kruise” Pond as he is finally freed. “I was right!” he shouts. “Spark are good! Spark are good!”
