Boston Uprising vs Dallas Fuel
Next up, we have yet another match that is seemingly pretty darn easy to predict: Dallas Fuel vs. Boston Uprising. Now, it's still somewhat impossible to assess just how strong Dallas really are at this point in time, but their potential is undeniable. Well, by "potential" we mean that they're much better than people give them credit for and will, without a doubt, climb the ranks over the coming weeks and months. They're not going to upset the long-established status quo nor will they etch their names in history, but if you're looking for a competent dark horse that's going to upset from time to time, then look no further than Dallas. Their loss to Washington, however, *is* indicative of their current position which is one that is akin to a gatekeeper.
Still, that's by no means a dreadful position to be in -- we're at the very start of the season, after all, and they've got all the time in the world to further grow and develop.
Now, though, they're scheduled to face a team many of us deem as an absolute bottom-tier dweller. Whether they're the de facto *worst* team in the Overwatch League is less important at this point in time, but even if they're not wholly dreadful they're certainly not far off. Either way, they're competing with the Spitfires and the Vancouver Titans of the world which, in all fairness, is far from an enviable position. Whether they'll manage to grow and evolve over time is anyone's guess, but don't hold your breath for it to happen as there's a very palpable skill ceiling above them, and if history is any indication (and it really should be), they won't be able to break through.
Either way, we'll side with the Dallas boys on this one as it's the only logical option. Boston might make things a bit more competitive than expected but they shouldn't be able to get the job done and should, by all means, eventually succumb to the Fuel who are undeniably better and more talented.
