Arx First S8 Games (via Twitch): Tank blunders vs Havanah sightlines
In the firstgame ArX played with Milkshake1 who he really bashed for his blunders as a Ramatra on Havanah, a map we know is already on ArX nerves as his most hated map because of the imbalanced sight-lines that favor certain heroes (in this game, the Widow). ArX basically saw Milkshake commit unforgivable sins in his passive Tank play – particularly on Havanah, where he gave the enemy Widow unbeatable sightlines. This would be a feature only the Tank could contest.
Numbani: “Easy” win beating Milkshake with Cloudy and Sauna
In the next match ArX happened to be against Milkshake, who took Orissa on Numbani. Milkshake did fine, even getting multiple elims on ArX, but couldn’t really compete with Cloudy2. Although ArX didn’t call it out, the real hero of the game was Sauna3
ArX Third game: Ilios vs Cloudy, Sauna
This time Cloudy and Sauna were against ArX team on Ilios. Sauna still rocked it, getting gold elims at 31, but ArX tracer FakeJake4 was right behind at 30. Meanwhile, Cloudy seemed to get soundly beat by ArX’ team’s tank Lunar5 on Doom Fist.
Footnotes
1 One of the chat recognized Milkshake as Vestola, who later on ArX admitted is one of the great players in the game. Vestola is a Finnish pro https://liquipedia.net/overwatch/Vestola On the Milkshake handle he seems to play flex, getting time with most every hero https://www.overbuff.com/players/milkshake-11162 (but more Support than the other rolls). Professionally, Vestola is the tank for team SrPeakCheck.
2 Cloudy is the top ranked Rein OTP on the ladder, also apparently another Finnish pro according to https://liquipedia.net/overwatch/LhCloudy . He is also with the team SrPeakCheck, where he has just become their coach. So, when ArX bashed their coach for Milkshake (Vestola) having made a bad choice as tank with ArX speculating about bad coach advice was actually ArX criticizing Cloudy 🤣
3 Sauna, a third Finnish pro currently on the team SrPeakCheck, which also includes Vestola. https://liquipedia.net/overwatch/Sauna
4 FakeJake is a Polish pro as of 2023, with traces (but deleted pages) on Liquipedia. In 2023 he was on team Frog here: https://liquipedia.net/overwatch/GameBattles_Overwatch_2_Online_Tournament/EU/14, and in the 2023 Polish open trials here: https://liquipedia.net/overwatch/Overwatch_World_Cup/2023/Open_Trials/Poland .
5 I can’t find anything on Lunar; perhaps he is a champion ladder warrior like ArX, but not a pro.
