Today was a big day for the Overwatch League. The second season semifinals for stage one debuted on ABC, marking the first time the league has been shown on network television. Beyond that, fans were glued to the games to find out which teams will be in tomorrow\u2019s stage grand finals. Unfortunately for fans of two of those teams, both games were sweeps. The Vancouver Titans and the San Francisco Shock will be competing in tomorrow\u2019s stage one grand finals. Semifinal matches were a first-to-four series, upgraded from the Overwatch League\u2019s usual best-of-three method. The Vancouver Titans demolished the Seoul Dynasty with a 4-0 score\u2014and the San Francisco Shock did the same to the Philadelphia Fusion with another commanding sweep. Vancouver Titans vs. Seoul Dynasty Vancouver have been dominant throughout the entire first stage, coming into the playoffs undefeated. The semifinals were no different for the Titans. On first stage Busan, they quickly took their first map point thanks to main tank Park \u201cBumper\u201d Sang-beom\u2019s aggressive playstyle. The Seoul Dynasty got to choose the next map, Hollywood, and put up a good fight against the Titans. Seoul\u2019s expert Sombra Choi \u201cMichelle\u201d Min-hyuk shined when given the chance, throwing down full-team EMPs and nearly backcapping Point B. Down 2-0 at halftime, Seoul went wild on third map Anubis. Kim \u201cFleta\u201d Byung-sun got the chance to return to his signature Pharah play and main tank Baek \u201cFissure\u201d Chan-hyung rolled into battle with Wrecking Ball. While Seoul took both points, Vancouver decided to give it right back. In an absolute power move, Vancouver mirrored their wild composition and steamrolled the map with it. Last map Rialto was a similar scene. After the commanding win, Titans main tank Bumper said through translator Danny Kim, \u201cIt\u2019s not that we played well, it\u2019s that Seoul didn\u2019t play that well.\u201d \u00a0 San Francisco Shock vs. Philadelphia Fusion Many analysts predicted this match to be a back-and-forth power play between two relatively-similar teams. Both the Shock and Fusion are playing with mixed-language rosters and routinely manage to pull out wins where they statistically shouldn\u2019t. Unfortunately for the Fusion, their luck had run out. Ilios was the first map played in this series\u2014the map went so quickly in the Shock\u2019s favor that production barely had time to get highlights. On Hollywood, the San Francisco Shock gave a dominant showing as they completed the entire map. Shock\u2019s support duo, Grant \u201cMoth\u201d Espe and Park \u201cViol2t\u201d Min-ki, managed to keep their team healed throughout Fusion\u2019s aggressive attacks. The Shock managed to full hold Philadelphia\u2019s attack and went up 2-0 at halftime. Even after that level of demolition, the Fusion managed to rally and looked to reverse sweep on Horizon Lunar Colony. Fusion off-tank Gael \u201cPoko\u201d Gouzerch threw a massive D.Va Self-Destruct\u2014one of his trademark \u201cPoko bombs\u201d\u2014that allowed the Fusion to take both points. But even the biggest of bombs is no match for Jay \u201cSinatraa\u201d Won on Zarya, leading the San Francisco Shock to victory on Horizon. The final map, Rialto, was a repeat of Hollywood, in which Sinatraa and main tank Matthew \u201csuper\u201d DeLisi led their team to full hold Fusion\u2019s attack. The stage one grand finals take place tomorrow, March 24, at 2pm CT. The Vancouver Titans and San Francisco Shock will play in a first-to-four matchup to see who wins the stage championship. It\u2019s also a special event for both teams. This is the first playoff appearance for both the San Francisco Shock and the Vancouver Titans, who are an expansion team added to the league this year. The match comes with a hefty prize\u2014$200,000 to the winning team\u2014and the bragging rights of being the season\u2019s first stage champions.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/23163654\/2019_S1W6D2_185101_SanFranciscoShockVsTorontoDefiant_SANFRANCISCOWALKOUT_Stewart-VollandB.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/112956"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1722"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=112956"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/112956\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/112957"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=112956"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=112956"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=112956"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=112956"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=112956"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=112956"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=112956"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}

Today was a big day for the Overwatch League. The second season semifinals for stage one debuted on ABC, marking the first time the league has been shown on network television. Beyond that, fans were glued to the games to find out which teams will be in tomorrow\u2019s stage grand finals. Unfortunately for fans of two of those teams, both games were sweeps. The Vancouver Titans and the San Francisco Shock will be competing in tomorrow\u2019s stage one grand finals. Semifinal matches were a first-to-four series, upgraded from the Overwatch League\u2019s usual best-of-three method. The Vancouver Titans demolished the Seoul Dynasty with a 4-0 score\u2014and the San Francisco Shock did the same to the Philadelphia Fusion with another commanding sweep. Vancouver Titans vs. Seoul Dynasty Vancouver have been dominant throughout the entire first stage, coming into the playoffs undefeated. The semifinals were no different for the Titans. On first stage Busan, they quickly took their first map point thanks to main tank Park \u201cBumper\u201d Sang-beom\u2019s aggressive playstyle. The Seoul Dynasty got to choose the next map, Hollywood, and put up a good fight against the Titans. Seoul\u2019s expert Sombra Choi \u201cMichelle\u201d Min-hyuk shined when given the chance, throwing down full-team EMPs and nearly backcapping Point B. Down 2-0 at halftime, Seoul went wild on third map Anubis. Kim \u201cFleta\u201d Byung-sun got the chance to return to his signature Pharah play and main tank Baek \u201cFissure\u201d Chan-hyung rolled into battle with Wrecking Ball. While Seoul took both points, Vancouver decided to give it right back. In an absolute power move, Vancouver mirrored their wild composition and steamrolled the map with it. Last map Rialto was a similar scene. After the commanding win, Titans main tank Bumper said through translator Danny Kim, \u201cIt\u2019s not that we played well, it\u2019s that Seoul didn\u2019t play that well.\u201d \u00a0 San Francisco Shock vs. Philadelphia Fusion Many analysts predicted this match to be a back-and-forth power play between two relatively-similar teams. Both the Shock and Fusion are playing with mixed-language rosters and routinely manage to pull out wins where they statistically shouldn\u2019t. Unfortunately for the Fusion, their luck had run out. Ilios was the first map played in this series\u2014the map went so quickly in the Shock\u2019s favor that production barely had time to get highlights. On Hollywood, the San Francisco Shock gave a dominant showing as they completed the entire map. Shock\u2019s support duo, Grant \u201cMoth\u201d Espe and Park \u201cViol2t\u201d Min-ki, managed to keep their team healed throughout Fusion\u2019s aggressive attacks. The Shock managed to full hold Philadelphia\u2019s attack and went up 2-0 at halftime. Even after that level of demolition, the Fusion managed to rally and looked to reverse sweep on Horizon Lunar Colony. Fusion off-tank Gael \u201cPoko\u201d Gouzerch threw a massive D.Va Self-Destruct\u2014one of his trademark \u201cPoko bombs\u201d\u2014that allowed the Fusion to take both points. But even the biggest of bombs is no match for Jay \u201cSinatraa\u201d Won on Zarya, leading the San Francisco Shock to victory on Horizon. The final map, Rialto, was a repeat of Hollywood, in which Sinatraa and main tank Matthew \u201csuper\u201d DeLisi led their team to full hold Fusion\u2019s attack. The stage one grand finals take place tomorrow, March 24, at 2pm CT. The Vancouver Titans and San Francisco Shock will play in a first-to-four matchup to see who wins the stage championship. It\u2019s also a special event for both teams. This is the first playoff appearance for both the San Francisco Shock and the Vancouver Titans, who are an expansion team added to the league this year. The match comes with a hefty prize\u2014$200,000 to the winning team\u2014and the bragging rights of being the season\u2019s first stage champions.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/23163654\/2019_S1W6D2_185101_SanFranciscoShockVsTorontoDefiant_SANFRANCISCOWALKOUT_Stewart-VollandB.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/112956"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1722"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=112956"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/112956\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/112957"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=112956"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=112956"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=112956"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=112956"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=112956"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=112956"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=112956"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
