The long-awaited Titans battle ends in the blink of an eye: Dallas Fuel has defeated Seoul Dynasty 3-0 and is in the semifinals of the Overwatch League. The eternal rivals led the tables of the West and East regions this year, and last faced each other in 2019.

The first map did not yet allow to guess the result. Both teams struggled for every percentage point of progress, in the end Dallas Fuel narrowly bit through. Having the momentum on its side, the team subsequently thrashed Seoul Dynasty repeatedly back into its base. Despite flickering signs of life on the part of Seoul, Dallas clearly controlled the last round.

"We had prepared so many strategies for the match and executed our plan perfectly," Euiseok "Fearless" Lee said, according to a translation after the match. "No team can stop Dallas Fuel yet. Except maybe London Spitfires - they're pretty good.»

London lost 3-0 to Houston Otlaws. Dallas and Houston will meet on Friday in the last "battle for Texas" of the season. It's about reaching the final of the Overwatch League.
