Florida Mayhem vs Boston Uprising

For our third match of the day we have a fairly exciting clash between the Boston Uprising and the Florida Mayhem. Now this might not be that important of a match in regards to overall standings but it plays a key role in Boston's path to playoffs. They want to come out and dominate and getting a clean 4-0 would not only build momentum going forward but give them a far better map differential that could be the deciding factor when all is said and done.

After losing DreamKazper no one really expected Boston to remain resilient. After all, there was no reason to have any hope in a roster that just lost one of the biggest catalysts who is also one of the best flex DPS players in the entire League. Mistakes was thought to be a solid replacement but he had big shoes to fill. So when they went up against the Excelsior, a team that has only lost twice so far during the regular season, no one expected them to stand a chance against the reigning champions.

But they did. Not only did they win but they looked incredible in doing so. It was as if they simply slotted Mistakes into their starting roster and even though they had less than three days of practice time they didn't skip a beat when facing the likes of Saebyeolbe and the rest of New York's dangerous squad. It was the rest of the Uprising line-up that stepped up in the absence of DreamKazper. It was an incredible display of teamwork and skill, with the slightest of decisions and plays making the difference. Going forward it will be really hard to predict whether Boston overperformed, or New York underperformed.

Had Boston not upset New York a couple of days ago we would've been in favor of Florida without a doubt, however after seeing the Uprising take down the absolute best Overwatch team in the entire League with a "weakened" roster, it's impossible to bet against them on this one. That said Florida looked very good a couple of days ago against London, and even though they started with two completely new players they looked fantastic from the very get go, even managing to get a draw on Volskaya Industries. Sayaplayer absolutely proved his worth a couple of days ago and he could by all means make life complicated for the entirety of Boston Uprising.

That said it's hard not giving Boston the benefit of the doubt after everything that has transpired. It might not be clean but they should be able to pull off the win.
