Big win for the Fusion last night in their season opener.

They got revenge on the London Spitfire after getting swept in the 2018 Overwatch League finals.

Is this our year?

Perhaps, but there’s a lot of Overwatch left to play.

Surely Carpe and the boys got some extra motivation last night when they were led out to the arena floor by none other than Gritty:

Gritty. Man, he does it all. Mascot, viral sensation, and now video game competition hype man.

FYI, Xfinity Live was packed for last night’s watch party, proving that esports are, indeed, the future.
