SAYAPLAYER – FLORIDA MAYHEM – WIDOWMAKER
The first Florida Mayhem player to make our best performances lists thus far in the Overwatch League, Sayaplayer had an amazing series of games as Widowmaker on Saturday against the Philadelphia Fusion. So much so he was awarded one of the two Players of the Day titles alongside the aforementioned JJoNak of New York Excelsior.

Not only is Sayaplayer effective with his use of the character, getting picks to aid his team in either capturing points or pushing payloads, he also had some super flashy plays with the character that remind us why esports is such a popular thing in the first place. In the clips both above and below, we see Sayaplayer showing off his aiming while airborne.
THIS IS INSANE! @SayaplayerOW #OWL2018

His tracking skills were insane in this match against Philadelphia. And even though Florida ended up losing on Saturday 3-1, in the clip below we see Saraplayer pull off a 3K to finish the payload on push on Route 66, granting the team at least a small victory in the overall match.

Sayaplayer also got Player of the Day alongside DreamKazper on Thursday when the team went against standings leader New York Excelsior, proving he was consistent with Widow throughout the week.
Since he is a relatively new player added to the team in late February, here’s hoping we see more of him on the Mayhem team roster as stage three progresses.
