GEGURI – SHANGHAI DRAGONS – D.Va
Since joining the Shanghai Dragons back in February, Geguri has continually stood out as a talented tank player and one of the best on her team when it comes to instigating and winning fights with her two signature characters Zarya and D.Va.

This week, she stood-out specifically with D.Va during the Wednesday match against Florida Mayhem. The first play to note can be seen above when Geguri launched her mech perfectly to get both enemy supports hiding off to the side at the end of the Dragons attack on Watchpoint Gibraltar. While D.Va’s ult is often used to move and separate the enemy team members in a more strategical way, it is always satisfying to see one launched purely to rattle and kill off the less mobile characters who have no hope of escaping. Geguri is very good at knowing when to save her ult for the former, and when to send it off to actually get a couple picks.
Another play seen below shows off Geguri’s ability to fight and survive in he thick of close-range team battles, with amazing instincts in knowing which enemy character to engage and in what order to better her chances of success in killing them all in the long run. Geguri takes out the enemy aWesomeGuy as Winston while he is distracted by her teammate Fearless also playing as Winston, helps take Manneten as D.Va out of his mech before turning her attention to TviQ as Brigette to finish her off freeing up Fearless to tickle down Manneten’s health so she can come back and kill him before also killing TviQ and finishing the whole fight with Zebbosai as Mercy who is left with no one to protect him.
Always, @Geguri2 is ALWAYS in the thick of things 😍. #OWL2018

Not only does Geguri standout on her own, she meshes so well with fellow tank players and knows when it’s necessary for her to stick around for support, and when she can leave Fearless to pick up the scraps as Winston without fear it’s too much for him to handle. Not only this, but her tracking on D.Va is absolutely top notch, and therefore she usually comes out of teamfights dealing way more damage than her massive mech seems to take in.
