i dont remember the set-up exactly, but probably because he wanted to keep the second explosive trap dead based on how the damage/life worked out

Tuned in for one game. Face hunter vs face hunter. Great game you made there, blizzard.

More like hybrid than midrange but that doesn't really matter, it was a dull game.

Jab is so nervous on camera. He is awkward, but much more chill on stream. Glad that guy got punished.
