It's the third year of the Overwatch World Cup. Team South Korea has claimed the 1st place for two consecutive years, guarding the country's reputation as an Overwatch powerhouse. Even when the team members changed, the results didn't. Before the playoffs even started, Team South Korea was brimming with confidence, as if their victory was already assured.

The perfect results from the previous 2 years - a matter of immense pride for many Overwatch fans in Korea - has become an immense weight for the newly-selected South Korean players.
