Stage 2 of the Overwatch League has finally kicked off. New player signings have been made, team trades have happened, metas have changed, and it’s time for a whole new competitive scene to take place. Stage 2 of the League will run until Mar. 26, in which the top teams will compete for a playoffs title. From now until then, we’ll be seeing three matches per day from Wednesday to Saturday.
The Dynasty and Fuel will be kicking off the week with an epic rematch. Dallas Fuel vastly underperformed in Stage 1, but with xQc and aKm in the lineup, they’re looking to make a comeback in Stage 2. The Dynasty swept the Fuel on the first day of Stage 1, though the new and retooled Fuel will be out for revenge this time around.
The Fusion and Outlaws match-up is another exciting one to look out for. Surprisingly, Houston has proven that it’s not simply a patch team, and they can play well even without relying heavily on Junkrat. On the other hand, the Fusion has a new secret weapon in the form of EQO, and while they were very inconsistent in Stage 1, they might just give the Outlaws a run for their money. When the Fusion first faced the Outlaws in Stage 1, the Fusion took the match 3-2. Houston has been improving steadily since then, so this will be a fantastic grudge match to watch.
We’ll be updating this post with the map results for each match-up, along with the team standings, as the week goes on, so be sure to check back for more up-to-date information.
