Holy shit at that NYXL overtime attack push. And then the full hold defense.
Well this aged poorly.

Reverse curse never fails (im so glad to be wrong on that)
damn
Yeah, so many flubbed Fluxes by Meko, and we shouldn't even talk about 90% of SBB's Death Blossoms.
Fun match though, especially after the slaughters yesterday.

Runaway's dead and the Vancouver Titans killed it. The underdog story is long gone now
Runaway now is not OWL level, as fanboy-triggering as that sounds. People loved them for their underdog streak, and their vibrant brand/personality, but expecting them to get pick up is very unrealistic. They still have to actually win something first. At the same time, I'd honestly advise Flowervin to sell Bumper, Stitch and Haksal and then rebuild. Those buyouts money can help Runaway for a few more season.
this is a copy pasta please dont hurt me lol
Just remind yourself that everytime they predict Van to lose, they're doing it off of hopes rather than facts
I will now accept nothing less but a Shock/Titans finale now as a final cap to this season. They've each won one stage finals against each other, they MUST have a final showdown to make this as anime as possible.
Unless they're playing the Justice, who are undefeated against the Titans. 🤷♂️

What the fuck was up with Titans and control today. That shit was TERRIFYING.
The stars are aligned so watch Hangzhou pull off the miracle upset lol

NY looked bad on both Control maps and SBB and Meko had an overall weak match and they need to work on ult usage.
Still, they put up a darn good fight. Seeing them fight the winner of Spark/Shock is going to be good. Wouldn't be surprised if they run it back. Not surprised that Titans made it to Grand Finals though. Funny how people said they'd be trash after GOATS because of one loss. That team is just unreal, can't even be mad.

Haksal is also such a superstar stud. Feels like there's just no stopping him.
Yep. As much as I've grown to enjoy NYXL's run trying to prove that they're not chokers, we need the grand finale rubber match for ShockvTitans in the Grand Finals.

Don't give me this "NYXL looks better" talk. Pushing Vancouver Titans to map 5 in a MEANINGLESS match means NOTHING! The Titans rotated half their roster around! The New York Excelsior won't win a single playoff series. They're not good enough anymore. #OWL2019
Real talk, the community has only managed to successfully predict 2 of Vancouver's 5 losses: and both of them were to Shock. Valiant, Dragons, and Justice were all crazy upsets that only had fringe predictions
It's gonna be Shock/Titans, the entire season has built up to it and so far this playoffs have been the exact opposite of last year's where the teams who have been at the top all year long have remained there.
So how does Grand Finals work with the implementation of the losers bracket? Does the losers bracket winner have to beat the Titans in two sets? First to reset the bracket to bring the Titans into losers, and then beat them again? That's how it's done in fighting game tourneys with the same bracket system.
Yep, it'll work the same way since it is double elimination so the Winner's Bracket team has to lose twice.
No, there's no bracket reset. Grand Finals is first to 4 map wins like the rest of the playoffs. Playing two series of first to 4 in a row would be insane.
That would be a disadvantage to the Titans since their opponent had numerous second chances to make it to grand finals. And it would defeat the purpose of double elimination.
This is true, but there's really no way around it considering how long it would take to do a bracket reset. They also argue that whoever wins the loser's bracket has been disadvantaged enough by playing extra elimination matches (and providing their opponent more footage to study) to balance it out.
That is some bullshit. So others team get two chances but Titans get one? Why not play the reset on a different day?
Why is it bullshit? The other team would have to play more games to get to the grand finals in the first place. The WB team already has that advantage
Actually the team coming out of losers will be more battle tested. Since there is no bracket reset, the winners finalist has no large advantage.
Titans had to play 3 games to get to GF, NYXL would have to play 4, Shock/Spark have to play 5, How is it easier?
A team in the loser bracket will have to go through either the NYXL or Shock to get to grand finals. or possibly both if you're the spark
Titans are the most battle tested team in this League
