PROFIT – LONDON SPITFIRE – JUNKRAT
London Spitfire won the playoffs games against Houston Outlaws and New York Excelsior, netting them the title of stage one champions, even if they are currently third in the official league standings overall. One amazing DPS player to thank for these wins is Profit, who played an amazing Junkrat this week, especially in the last match, to become stage one champs on Saturday.
His use of Junkrat’s tire to kill the enemy healers is successful almost every time, as he’s great at getting a sense of the enemy team placement just before hitting his ult to find the supports like a heat-seeking missile. Killing those healers is a crucial move in securing team fights in the long run, and Profit continues to prove his worth by landing those kills extremely well.

Take the video below, in which he gets a last minute pick on Mercy with his tire, perfectly weaving through the rooms on Dorado to find her just as she’s flying back to support her team. Getting this final pick secured the final team fight, and ultimately granted London Spitfire the win over New York in the playoffs to become stage one champions.

And if you need another example, here is his double kill on the enemy Mercy and Junkrat in an match earlier that same day against the Houston Outlaws:

Heck, he can even shut down an enemy Rip Tire with a simple flick of the wrist as Genji.

With his skills on Junkrat, as well as some great plays with Genji, Profit got player of the day on Saturday alongside his teammate Birdring who will also be getting some praise from us, on the next page.
