What’s on this week? Ft Overwatch League Stage 3

We start the week with the WoW MDI heading into its Spring Final. Then we check in with the Call of Duty Pro league as it heads into the final few weeks of the regular season. Lastly, we join the Overwatch League as they head into the first week of Stage 3.

Mythic Dungeon International 2019 – Spring Finals

The Mythic Dungeon International heads down under as the top sides from each region battle it out to take the MDI Spring Split crown. Four teams from the MDI West & East regions have made it to the event, Method EU & NA, Abrakeydabra and Forty K from MDI West. MDI East will be represented by Team D, Black Mamba, BUFF WAR NERF ROGUE and Battle for Champion.

Blizzard provided the above chart to show how the MDI will go down. They also announced one major change for the regional league MDI events with the Spring Finals, allowing players to change any members race/class combination after each map. Previously this was restricted to one change per dungeon, which caused some rather stale matches with every team running the same comp 90% of the time. All matches will be played in Bo3, with the Grand Final being a Bo5.
