00:00A shout out to Ruckus though because he's one of the few supports that can play these other heroes at
00:04such a high level.
00:05He's played Widow for this team. He's going to be on the Roadhog now.
00:07All right, time over any strats, right?
00:09Is this the switch that is perhaps catching Dallas off guard?
00:12They're just getting hooked all over the place.
00:14Mickey going to town right now trying to find that shot point blank.
00:17And he takes him out of the fight immediately.
00:19And so it's just trade frags back and forth.
00:22But Houston seem like they're coming out ahead here.
00:24Jake with the kill on Mickey. That's a big one.
00:25And it's going to force the res.
00:27But there's so much damage coming in from Jake.
00:29An enormous tire over the top post Valkyrie takes down Kuzna and Seagull.
00:34And they will stabilize again.
00:35Houston to be able to first hold on Junkratown, which they're five seconds away from doing.
00:40Already they do manage to get the res.
00:41So that's something here for Dallas to work with.
00:43The DMech as well, but they aren't able to get on the point.
00:46While I'm jabbering about Mercy plays.
00:49You got to remember, guys.
00:50If they're not peeking around the shield, you're going to try to crack right through it.
00:52They're holding a little further back than some teams will.
00:55But this is essentially one Junkrat on the side creeping just to try to get out here and touch if
01:00he can.
01:00The tire will come in and chips now out of this fight.
01:03Oh, that's so big.
01:05Link, sir.
01:06Drops Kuzna.
01:06No resurrect here.
01:08And this is going to be the easiest first map for Houston Outlaws.
01:11What a fantastic performance.
01:14That is them taking them.
01:16It gets tough to read sometimes.
01:18But I do like the fact that Houston Outlaws,
01:20it seemed like they really just wanted to have as little presence on the point as possible
01:23to avoid hitting the picks until the fight actually came through.
01:26And maybe, maybe Kuzna holding on to that.
01:53It's difficult for the tracer because one single mine with a damage boost is enough to take you out.
01:58But the real issue here for me was Dallas overall.
02:02Sure, Houston looked impressive,
02:04but the tank diving coordination from the field was all over the place.
02:07You don't hear it that often.
02:08And it is the team kill horn.
02:10And it started off because of this.
02:11He gets pressured down, decides it's time to let it rip quite literally.
02:15Climbs a wall, finds his targets.
02:18That's devastating.
02:19And he even manages to cliff Kuzna a little bit.
02:21Or at least Kuzna.
02:21He's to get kills.
02:22Where are they going to happen though?
02:24Siegel does manage to find Linkster in the end.
02:25So that's a big kill.
02:26And Effect is still alive on that point.
02:28Maybe they can turn it here, Dallas.
02:30But the supports are still alive.
02:31And sure enough, Rockets gets his trance in the end.
02:33This should spell disaster for Dallas.
02:36There's no way they can keep up on it.
02:37And the wick is burning, Hex.
02:39Don't think they even got 33%, which would be one of those markers.
02:43Call it a tick.
02:43That will not revert.
02:44It's very close.
02:45They did not.
02:47Reactions there to translocate back to the health pack.
02:50He'll be able to get...
02:50Stay alive.
02:51And there we go.
02:52The moment's hesitation on my part.
02:54But Linkster certainly didn't hesitate on his side.
02:56And he could get the follow.
02:57But he has to reload.
02:58Never mind.
02:59Both supports dead.
03:01This is a disaster for Dallas.
03:03They are falling apart.
03:05Linkster couldn't have better sight lines if he was mind controlling these supports.
03:09They seem to go wherever.
03:11He has in his toolkit.
03:12He can move a bit quicker than others.
03:13Mickey will get the DMech on Coolmat.
03:15Jake though with the trade.
03:16And there it is.
03:17Linkster again out in the open.
03:19Does get bound by Siegel though.
03:21But the damage is done.
03:21Jake and Banny reigns supreme right now.
03:23They will res that back up.
03:25And as they try to finish out this point.
03:26Remember they don't even finish.
03:27They do just finish like that.
03:29Because they only needed 33%.
03:31Houston outlaws.
03:34Out to a blazing fast 2-0 lead over the Dallas Fuel.
03:38So quick.
03:40The strats are working.
03:42Linkster is on point.
03:43This stage going forward is point is on the mercy still.
03:46Want to have that mercy.
03:47Want to have that res in play.
03:48The Valkyrie is so powerful.
03:50And here it is.
03:50Jake was looking for the opening.
03:51He's got the Dragon Blade.
03:52And it's time to hack and slash.
03:53Effect not able to get the flashbang off in time.
03:55And look what happens.
03:56He just murders the back line.
03:58Jake.
04:00That is fine work indeed.
04:03I'm a little bit.
04:06There's an internal bias going on.
04:09That starts off.
04:10Mickey out of the fight.
04:11That is a huge blade that comes through.
04:13Gets the tire and the tire caster.
04:16Again, a late Valkyrie brings two back to life.
04:19For a second there, I thought that it was going to be the reset.
04:21They have nowhere to go.
04:22He came back into traffic.
04:24And there it is.
04:25Jake gets a bit to a greeting.
04:27It's one of those situations where they thought they could bring him back.
04:29But meanwhile, they weren't in control for the entire time.
04:31Siegel gets on just to touch.
04:33He had the suicide onto the point.
04:35They will not be able to touch it.
04:37And Houston, we have a victory over Dallas.
04:41It's 3-0.
04:43We're going to bump that scores.
04:44We're going to have tiebreakers.
04:45You don't want to go 0-4 against your in-state rival.
04:48This is about getting a crooked number on that board.
04:59It's up to him to be able to deal with that Fair Mercy.
05:03In fact, he's got to coordinate with Chips here because it's not just him.
05:06He's got an...
05:07Oh my goodness!
05:08You see Taimu in the kill feed, but that little icon next to him is Chips.
05:11They discorded Jake in the sky.
05:13And they absolutely need that.
05:15Taimu bringing the thunder already.
05:17He's already got 60% on the ult as well.
05:19Deadeye is going to be perfect to zone out Houston.
05:22We didn't have it.
05:23But more importantly, it's Taimu versus Lynxer.
05:26Two of the best players on their respective teams.
05:28Looking for the squishy targets.
05:30And effective...
05:31I thought he dodged it.
05:32I thought he got out in the nick of time.
05:33But Jake still connects.
05:34And Jake...
05:35The pressure getting poured on here in Houston.
05:36They're doing a fantastic job.
05:38And it all took Jake.
05:39Just going back to his faithful rat.
05:42It's fine time here for his teammates to get back into this.
05:44There's going to be a tier that could just end this map right now.
05:47He's looking for the supports in the backline.
05:48It does get taken out by effect.
05:50But it's a zoning tier.
05:52They're unable to make any more progress.
05:54The ones defending.
05:55Houston will be on the attacking side.
05:57And already going to keep an eye on what they're running.
06:00Pretty sure Mumma again is well off of him.
06:01Not going to a health pack.
06:02Not running back in for the free heal.
06:04Definitely give your healers the chance to build their ultimates as well.
06:07Because that's only going to help you going into the push.
06:09We're going to give a bit of a replay here of Taimu cleaning house.
06:13Bonnie will have his in the next fight.
06:15That means they will have the Valkyrie advantage.
06:17Usually means the man advantage given the resurrection mechanics.
06:20This is why Deadeye can be so good.
06:22Taking out those targets in the sky.
06:23Sick follow up there.
06:25They need to take advantage of this ultimate.
06:28Oh, they know they're a great spot for the Valk.
06:30Because you can resurrect Jake.
06:31Which is why he has the freedom to use that barrage.
06:33Knowing he'll be brought back to life.
06:34However, Mickey took out Bonnie during that fight.
06:37Bonnie and Jake out of the fight.
06:39Do the outlaws have the bodies on the point to bring this back?
06:41They just might.
06:42So things with how Houston have been performing so far.
06:45Things could be shaping up.
06:46And this is all about that combo, right?
06:48When you have the Valkyrie in play.
06:50Jake, he's got the barrage.
06:51Perfect positioning from him.
06:52Right behind the Orisa shield.
06:54He's boosted up doing maximum damage.
06:56Now they're going to take free push.
06:58You can do this as many times as you want.
06:59And Blade comes out for Jake.
07:01This is it.
07:02He needs to find the kills.
07:03And he's not going to do it for once.
07:04Jake not able to get any value out of his ultimate.
07:06apart from positioning, forcing Dallas back.
07:09But they did a great job of sticking together.
07:10Dallas, in effect, drops out of nowhere.
07:13Doesn't get the kill.
07:14But that was so close.
07:15Jake just had a heart attack.
07:16And they are not going to have any time here, Dallas.
07:18You can see they're just jumping in.
07:20Koko trying to buy time.
07:20But he's going to be a great focus target.
07:22Rokkas already going to town with the heavy pulse rifle.
07:24Picking up the kill on Taimou, who's not long for this world.
07:28What a luxury to be able to instantly flex onto a third DPS.
07:32The caliber of Rokkas.
07:34He has played more DPS heroes than he has support heroes.
07:37In the Overwatch League.
07:40Houston Outlaws.
07:414-0.
07:42The Dallas Fuel.
07:44The sweep.
07:46Dallas definitely did not expect this result coming into this series.
07:50You were thinking it was going to be...
07:50We're going to go with a man not named Lynxer.
07:52It's Jake on our screen this time around, Grumps.
07:55Yeah, I mean, if you played Junkrat this well,
07:57you pretty much get away with playing it all the time.
07:59And that's what he does.
08:00He found so many good opportunities to deal with Dallas' misposition
08:05that we just had to give it to him for being able to actually play the Genji as well.
08:09So now he's shown some diversity.
08:11I wanted to give some love to Rokkas as well.
08:13Hog, we saw some soldier out of him.
08:15But really, it was the Jake stroke.
08:17It was the Jake story, of course.
08:18And last week, I think that too many Jake disappointed.
08:22He was just playing the Junkrat pretty well.
08:24Got a lot of praise from the Koreans.
08:26We don't know how...
