Hi {{first_name | there}},
🎮 Welcome to The Friday GG!
That’s a wrap for Week 5 and finals are on the horizon! This past week we’ve watched the action unfold as teams battled it out for their chance to earn a place in next weeks games and emerge champions! 📜
“It’s been amazing to see an uptake of players with less experience in tournaments and seeing them develop as the weeks progress. Being able to give them a weekly space to get some game time in makes me proud of what we’re building here. I’m looking forward to getting into the finals, so we can further level up the broadcast and crown our champions!”
Whether you’re a player, team captain, or one of our curious followers watching from the sidelines, this weekly email will keep you looped in with everything Office Showdown! 💼
🔥 What Went Down This Week?
Rocket League this week was Logitech G’s revenge arc, claiming a strong 3-0 win over their enemies at Dogpatch Labs.
League of Legends came onto your screens with the matchup everyone had been waiting for, we saw Logitech G take on Edtech x Staq in which after a 34 minute banger Edtech x Staq took home the win - watch here.
Valorant promised action as the Mixed Alumni faced off against Nativz Gaming, it went down to the wire but the home grown Nativz Gaming managed to close it out winning 13-4 - watch here.
Counter-Strike 2 was unfortunately called off this for this week due to availability issues.
📺 Clip of the Week
lolb0om of the Mixed Alumni arrived with aura for Wednesday nights Valorant match, check him turning around a 4v5 with a quick 3k and getting a fourth post plant 👇
🧠 This Weeks Learnings…
We have noticed that some of the substitutes we have been providing have been slightly mismatched to the skill level of the teams within the matchup. To offset this we’re looking into diversifying our substitute pool with players of all skill levels so we can keep game quality high even when a replacement pair of hands is needed.
