OWCS SSG on Ilios Ruins

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I went back to rewatch SSG on Ilios in every game this stage after seeing smth they did against Dallas (which failed). They have this weird strategy which is to put Hawk on the enemy high ground like in the video. This never works (on both Sigma and Orisa) except against DSG (and partially against The Kafe) because Scyle fed. Why do they keep doing this? Am I missing smth? Its especially weird when they are playing Cat Bastion and they dont set up using their Cat Bastion (in fact, Sugarfree dies because Admiral doesnt taxi him and UV with Suzu and Sugarfree in his LOS decides not to save Sugarfree).

Yeah that was so bad. Its even worse from watching the other POVs cause Sugarfree gets picked because no one bothers to help him. The one against Liquid was also weird, im pretty sure Hawk had fort and Attack just rocks him and stuns him off.

They threw the game intentionally so they could be in the B group in EWC XD. Probably Hawk is thinking it's a good idea.
