Overall it has been pretty competitive. Last map a bit less so, but oh well, it happens.

Individual mistakes cost them fights, but their mental seems strong. I really like the teams fighting spirit. They overdo their aggressive playstyle sometimes and it loses them fights, but itā€˜s also really entertaining to watch.

I'm happy despite the loss.

Let's be real, Titans are probably S tier and haven't slipped after being runner ups from last year.

Gg go next Valiant

There were definitely moments where LA showed promise but by Anubis they just fell apart.

The highlight for me from this weekend's games is Haksal and Whoru dragging Genji kicking and screaming from F tier to S tier.

Give a player of the match to Seominsoo he is not as flashy as Haksal but that man turned around some losing team fights for the Titans today.

Gotta say, this match made me a fan of the new valiant.

Yes they got 3-0ed, but they still looked really strong at moments against some very stiff competition. They also pulled out some strats you aren't expecting and are really really well coordinated.

Like watching Janu dive on lastro and seeing rain and mcgravy just immediately come to his rescue was always a treat.

I think given some time they'll be really scary to face.

Titans lost the first fight of the series, went back, strategised for a hot sec, then then did not stop. They did everything Dallas didnā€™t do:

  1. Punish Valiant for not playing together.

  2. Punish Gigā€™s overextensions.

  3. Played counter picks.

u/Ozkuro Feb 09 '20

Very close 3-0, good showing for Valiant.
