Fusion Eternal Record Sweeps At OWL Week 15

The final day of qualifiers before the May Melee Tournament saw some upsets and expected results.

The Philadelphia Fusion (12-1) rolled over the Vancouver Titans, 3-0.
The Fusion set the internet on fire by starting streamer/Doomfist specialist, DPS Philip "ChipSa" Graham for the first game on Oasis, which the Fusion took 2-0. ChipSa got subbed out after that, but it seemed to not matter which lineup the Fusion fielded against the Titans (2-6).

Vancouver has struggled throughout the year with timing and coordination of dives, and Sunday was no exception. Philadelphia took Volskaya Industries 2-1 and won a perfect 3-0 on Rialto to close out the series and take momentum into the May Melee tournament.

The Paris Eternal (7-5) picked up a convincing 3-0 win over the Dallas Fuel (4-6), on the back of DPS Nicolas "NiCOgdh" Moret, who played Reaper and Echo to near perfection. Paris took Lijiang Tower 2-0, Temple of Anubis 2-1, and closed out the series with a 3-1 win on Junkertown. Dallas falls from 12th to 14th with the loss, while Paris remains at sixth in the overall standings.

Elsewhere, the Guangzhou Charge (8-6) continued their impressive recent run with a 3-2 win over the Chengdu Hunters (4-10).

The Charge started the series up 2-0 with a 2-0 win on Ilios and a 2-1 win on Temple of Anubis.

The Hunters fired back with a full-hold 1-0 win on Watchpoint: Gibraltar and a 2-1 win on Hollywood to force a tiebreaker. On Oasis, the Charge came alive again and wrapped up a 2-0 win to take the series and the No.
1 seed for the Asian Region May Melee tournament.

In other Sunday action, the Hangzhou Spark (6-7) took a dominant 3-0 series win over the London Spitfire (4-5). The Spark took Ilios 2-0, Temple of Anubis 2-0 and completed the sweep with a 3-0 win on Rialto, denying the Spitfire a single map point throughout the series.

Finally, the Los Angeles Valiant (5-6) held off a near reverse-sweep by the Toronto Defiant (4-8) and took home a 3-2 series win. The Valiant started with a 2-0 win on Busan and a 3-2 win on Temple of Anubis, then the Defiant full-held Watchpoint: Gibraltar 1-0 and won Hollywood 3-2 to force a tiebreaker.

While the Defiant fought hard on Ilios, the Valiant soared to a 2-0 win and took the series win.

Week 16 will mark the beginning of the May Melee Tournaments for the Asian and American region. Exact start date, time and matchups TBD.
