In the top three Contenders teams of all times are these guys, O2 Blast. San Francisco Shock's partnered Contenders team. Placing first in both Contenders Korea and Spring Stage Open, O2 Blast are favored over all contenders teams, and even some Overwatch League teams! To bet against such a talented team this early in the Spring Stage Knockouts East would be a huge mistake. A perfect mix of league veterans and up and coming talent makes this team one of the best in the world.

PANTHERA haven't been around all that long, but they've made improvements over time the last few years. This is already a highlight for them, but to win a game in this tournament, against O2 Blast no less, would be a new highlight for this organization in Overwatch here in the Spring Stage Knockouts East. This season, they've got a few players leading the carge. Fate and Becky, both being former league professionals, are showing this team how to play at the highest level. Now, we'll see just what the peak is for this team.
