The Philadelphia Fusion support line already looks to be a top-tier duo moving forward. Daniel "FunnyAstro" Hathaway is a dynamic main-support but Alarm stepped into the spotlight in Philadelphia and performed extremely well. He showed why he was a highly touted rookie coming out of contenders with near perfect Baptiste play that truly allowed Sado freedom to be aggressive. His Ana was clutch, too as he continuously hit big bio-nade after bio-nade. He is an early contender for "Rookie of the Ye

On the surface, the game is making all the right decisions. Both versions of the battle pass are packed with skins, sprays, charms, and a variety of content that outweighs anything its predecessor had in its first few months. Seasonal events are established, and an existing roster of heroes we’ve already fallen in love with have a generous roster of cosmetics and lore to build upon. I’m already invested, and for Blizzard that is half the battle right now.
