Saturday, July 28th saw the London Spitfire capture the inaugural Overwatch League Championship with a 2-0 victory over the Philadelphia Fusion in the Overwatch League Grand Finals at the Barclays Center in New York City. London's extremely talented DPS player of Profit was a major factor in the Lond Spitfire being able to defeat the Philadelphia Fusion to claim the $1,000,000 grand prize and title of Overwatch League Champions.
The London Spitfire did not have much trouble against the Philadelphia Fusion in the Grand Finals, as the Cloud9 owned team was able to secure a 6-1 map record in two matches to claim the title. A great deal of the success that the London Spitfire experienced in the Overwatch League Grand Finals was due to the highlight level of play that Profit delivered in the most important matches of the season that earned him the honor of being named the MVP of "The First Finals".
One of the first jaw dropping plays that Profit was able to provide his team came during the first match of the Grand Finals against the Philadelphia Fusion on Friday, July 27th. Leading the match 2-1, the London Spitfire needed a victory on Volskaya Industries to close out the game and take a 1-0 lead in the Grand Finals heading into Saturday. Profit was able to provide the victory securing play, as the DPS players lead the charge in eliminating five Philadelphia Fusion players to give his team the win.
Another one of the MVP defining plays that Profit provided the London Spitfire during the Overwatch League Grand Finals was during the first map of match two on Junkertown. Playing as the archer Hanzo, Profit was able to perfectly line up a Dragonstrike ultimate and take out five Philadelphia Fusion players in a row.
While Profit had proven his skills as one of the very best DPS players in the Overwatch League throughout the season, his play on the biggest stage in professional Overwatch during the Overwatch League Grand Finals truly showed that Profit is one of the best talents the league has to offer and is worthy of the title of MVP.
