This could be best game of the day

Taiwan looks strong but I don't think they have much chance against a stack like Finland

On paper this looks like the most unbalanced game but it's probably gonna be the closest of the day if their scrim record is anything to go by and Finland let off the gas.

So I've noticed that players are squeezing packets of...something. Presumably this is to relieve cramps? Is that right? What are they squeezing?

Handwarmers.

Everything so far seems to indicate that Finland, and in particular Taimou, gives no fucks about this competition. Just wandering around doing solo stuff for fun. Not that I can blame them, nothing to play for, but I was hoping for more out of Finland.

There was 2:52 left when Finland attacked the first time, for reference.

Chinese Taipei guy kicked PC so it went off i guess, and they replayed whole map. Also saw this https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/158191115609047040/242075982981234688/unknown.png

Guide on how to win ow world cup:
-finish the 1st half
-if you don't like your time tell your entire team to kick their pc's
-repeat until you win the map

On a serious note it's probably not their fault that that happened but it was pure bs to allow them to completely restart the map, if you are gonna allow them to restart at least make it so it's 1 half instead of the full map.
