The Florida Mayhem continued their push to the top of the standings on Sunday by cruising to a 3-0 sweep of the Washington Justice during Summer Stage qualifying action in the Overwatch League’s West Region.
Florida won 2-0 on Lijiang Tower, 3-1 on Eichenwalde and 4-3 on Dorado to improve to 12-2 across spring and summer qualifiers. The Mayhem have the same record as the first-place Reign, but Atlanta’s plus-29 map differential bests Florida’s plus-25.
Summer Stage qualifying in the West runs through Sept. 4, with each team in the region playing a total of eight best-of-five matches. The top three teams will advance to the playoffs, while the fourth- through 10th-ranked squads will be sent to the play-ins.
In Sunday’s other matches, the London Spitfire beat Vegas Eternal 3-1 and the Vancouver Titans earned a 3-0 victory against the Los Angeles Gladiators.
Vegas opened with a 2-0 triumph on Busan, but things quickly headed south for the Eternal, as London claimed victories on Numbani (5-4), Watchpoint: Gibraltar (2-1) and Esperanca (1-0) to steal the match.
The Titans were dominant right out of the gate, edging Los Angels 2-1 on Ilios before winning 3-0 on Midtown and 4-3 on Route 66.
Summer Stage qualifying action in the West resumes on Friday with three matches:
–Houston Outlaws vs. Toronto Defiant
