" Overwatch League " 2022 season "Countdown Cup" started simultaneously in the east and west competition zones last weekend. The new stage also ushered in the version update, and the hero combination and tactical combination returned to the game environment where flowers bloomed. The scene of ten different heroes competing on the same stage appeared in the game again. The first week of the "Countdown Cup" was unexpected, with many unpopular matches that defeated the strong with weak, which added a little suspense to the road to promotion in the playoffs.
Chengdu Hunters defeated the Hangzhou Chargers and Guangzhou Chargers in the first week of the "Countdown Cup", and the two consecutive victories started to help the team secure the playoffs qualifying place in advance. After the version update of this stage, the hero combination is blooming, which is the best opportunity to subvert the balance of strength for the Hunter team, which has frequently used strange moves. Black Shadow, manipulated by JinMu and , Anna operated by Mmonk, entered the starting lineup. Black Shadow, with enhanced performance, is also a specialized tactical style that various teams are competing to try. JinMu fully utilizes his advantages in map positioning and finding opportunities. He has a longer time to hack invasion and cooperates with the team's excellent fire-focusing ability, which greatly improves the overall offensive efficiency of the Hunters.
html In the afternoon of the 124th, when he encountered an opponent with an extremely fierce offensive, Mmonk stepped forward to become a trader who controlled the rhythm of the game, and operated Anna to continuously hit the anesthesia dart to stop the opponent's offensive route, creating an offensive space for counterattacks and front-pressure for the output group in the formation, helping the team to laugh to the end in the five-set decisive victory.
Los Angeles Valiant Team and Guangzhou Chargers each won one last weekend, defeating two powerful opponents, Philadelphia Fusion Team and Shanghai Dragon Team respectively. The common feature of the two teams is that the heavy-mounted players in the team are the key points that determine the outcome of the game. Marve1, who had watched the game for one stage, returned to the starting seat. Her exquisite , Sigma and her adaptability as an all-round tank helped the team withstand the continuous offensive of the Fusion Team. Ezhan played a burst output at a critical moment and ended the game in one fell swoop.
The Stormtrooper introduced new players Piggy during the offseason and was also the core figure in the activation team. Facing the strong enemy Shanghai Dragon, the output combination of the stormtrooper ChoiSehwan and Jimmy even played an excellent performance with a slight advantage. Consolidating the defense line and maintaining the offensive advantage became particularly important. Piggy did a better job of offensive and defensive balance between Charlia and Winston , especially for the back row position of Shanghai Dragon, helping the stormtrooper reverse and defeat Shanghai Dragon in the hard battle of five sets. Piggy made a harsh statement in the post-match interview that the Eastern Conference is easier to deal with than the Western Conference. I hope his joining will help the Stormtroopers go further this season. According to the results of this week's game, the Stormtroopers have obvious advantages in the Eastern Conference win six. The brave team, which is currently ranked seventh, needs to work harder to achieve a breakthrough if they want to enter the playoffs qualification playoffs.
The Western Conference started to have an upset match since the first match day of the "Countdown Cup". Boston Rising Team defeated Houston Sharpshooters 3:1, and the New York Jiuxiao Tianqing Team defeated the Toronto Defenders in the early morning of the next day. The biggest surprise last weekend was undoubtedly the San Francisco Shocks suffered two consecutive losses, losing to Washington Justice and the Sharpshooters on the next two game days. Like Shanghai Dragon, which also suffered a series of losses in the Eastern Conference, the Shock Team has obvious intention to try a new lineup in these two games, and at the same time it has performed relatively hasty in organizing offense, and they fight with their own strength. Of course, there is no pressure to advance to the playoffs for the Shocks, so it is more important to make good use of the last stage of the game to adjust their competitive state.
Los Angeles Gladiators lost two generals on the eve of the "Countdown Cup". ANS decided to leave the team after negotiation with the team. Thai genius teenager Patiphan had no choice but to retire due to hand injuries.Fortunately, the soul character Kevster, who was output by the team, and Happy, who had successfully passed the running-in period, performed strongly. Reiner, the reinstalled position, swept away the haze of the unacceptable weather in the previous stage and reappeared the heroic posture of the God of War, helping the team win two consecutive victories and return the strong.
OWL2022 "Countdown Cup" officially started. In addition to the unexpected surprises of unpopularity last weekend, the hero selection, especially the reinstallation position, is full of highlights. Orisa , which has been silent for nearly a season, showed its power on the stage of the Western Conference. Almost all reinstallation heroes have a place on different occasions. Please lock in the latest news and official live broadcast room of OWL2022, and the exciting competition continues.
