      @@jonwicked7031 these are still some of the best overwatch players that our country produces, outside of a few that ventured into overwatch league proper. They're still very good, they're still getting paid (however miniscule an amount that may be), and they're still competing for a prize and title. They just wanted to have a bit of fun doing so. There was definitely some funny business going on and the match should be wiped from the scorecard, both receiving a loss or having to replay. It's definitely more fun watching Frogger dunk on squishies (hats off to the spectator camera operators for adapting very well lol) and cause a ruckus than watch a dive clear a team in 3 seconds after spending 2 minutes tiptoeing and dancing around each other.
