The Shanghai Dragons have struggled since day one of the Overwatch League, having yet to win a single game. The hope is that with the arrival of Sky and their coach, combined with the new players they signed from Korea, Kim "Geguri" Se-yeon, Lee "Fearless" Eui-seok, and Chon "Ado" Gi-hyeon, that the Shanghai Dragon will be able to turn their misfortunes around when Stage 3 starts in a couple of weeks. They are still missing two DPS players, however, with Lu "Diya" Weida and Fang "Undead" Chao remaining in China for the time being, so success will still require a lot of work from the remaining players.
