I agree hands down. One of the best regional finals I've ever seen! Those were some incredibly powerful alliances. I think we just got a glimpse of what elims at Atlanta will look like.

The coordination between the teams was fantastic.
I saw Red score 5 and Blue 4 in autonomous in one match. That's out of a maximum of 6 possible for each. Fantastic work!

I was watching the webcast, and I definitely noticed the delay. I wanted to see more action! The matches were such nail-biters that I couldn't wait for the next ones.
