CARPE – PHILADELPHIA FUSION – WIDOWMAKER
Carpe was on point (often literally) this past week as Widowmaker, shining the most on the Friday match between Philadelphia Fusion and San Francisco Shock. His contributions to his team helped Fusion make a massive comeback and win the match at a narrow 2-1.

His two most impressive plays from the match can be seen above and below. The first on Horizon Lunar Colony when Carpe moved expertly around the map to get a 2K, first getting Sleep as Zenyatta while he was distracted with Fusion’s frontline, and Architect as Widow while he was walking back to the point.
Later on during Lijiang Tower, he arrives to the point to kill Sleepy yet again along with BABYBAY as Widow, and then follows up with a close-range takeout of Choihyobin as D.Va while teammate SADO finishes off Moth as Mercy.

He was recognized this week by the league as well, getting player of the day alongside Fissure for Los Angeles Gladiators on Thursday with specific praise for Carpe’s Zarya plays on King’s Row followed by Widowmaker for the rest of the games where he preformed at top level. He also ended up getting player of the day alongside Dallas Fuel’s OGE on Friday as well.
