I used to be a (semi)pro gamer! Basically the college football of gaming... But like... It was Team Fortress 2 so it's more like the college mens Volleyball of gaming...

Anyway!

RGL Advanced Highlander Season 5 - Grand Finals.

lay civ 5 vs I Hate Mondays

Neither team was favored to win the season but after multiple upsets during playoffs, they both ended up there.

It was EXTREMELY close!

The first round on Ashville went to I Hate Mondays with every round being almost dead even.

The second round, on vigil, went to a tie breaker within the round as lay civ 5 and I Hate Mondays trade blows. Eventually lay civ 5 got the points.

With a score of 1-1 the game went to a tie breaker on swiftwater...

Round 1 went to I Hate Mondays by about 30 seconds.

Round 2 was incredibly close. Both teams had better scores but ultimately lay civ 5 won with literally 0 seconds left on the clock.

The final round... The tie breaker of the tie breaker...

Lay civ 5 starts and gets a solid time. About the same as round 1...

And just like round 1, I Hate Mondays manages to sneak away with an extremely close victory. Making them the unlikely champions of Season 5 Advanced!

Despite division dysphoria having an undefeated score and even Home Depot Esports having more wins than both of the teams in grands... I Hate Mondays took home the gold and I firmly take the credit for it!

Of course... I was playing for lay civ 5... But I promise you... I was the reason that I Hate Mondays won.
