uNKOE – DALLAS FUEL – ZENYATTA
For the first time ever, uNKOE has made out list for best player performances in the Overwatch League as one of his signature heroes Zenyatta. Back in April he was traded to Dallas Fuel in exchange for Custa from Los Angeles Valiant, and his performance this week proves that change could be working in favor for Dallas coming into stage four.

What stood out the most about uNKOE this week was his consistency in landing Zenyatta’s sometime tricky headshots, especially on more mobile characters like Genji or an ulting Mercy. Above we see arguably his best play of the week on Horizon Lunar Colony where he absolutely went off and got a 4k taking out Gesture as Reinhardt, Bdosin as Sombra, Birdring as Widowmaker, and finally NUS as Mercy while he was in-air using his ult. The accuracy to pull all that off in only 20 or so seconds is definitely something to be noted, especially considering he is technically playing a support character.

Another nod to his ability to finish off high mobile characters is seen above where he survives a thrashing Birdring as Genji in a Dragonblade as he dodges and throws orbs perfectly to finish him off in midair.

He was also one of the Players of the Day on Saturday alongside LiNkzr from Houston Outlaws, with specific praise given to his confidence as a support backline in combination with his ability to stay alive and put off those high numbers of damage that Zenyatta is known for in the league.
