The Answer Room

The week before playoffs, Harbor Reign’s practice schedule became borderline unreasonable. Scrims during the day. VOD review at night. Solo queue until morning. The entire room felt wound tight, like every person had been turned into a machine. Logan wasn’t unfamiliar with that kind of grind. What felt new was that everyone around him now believed he could actually lead them to wins. Sometimes that kind of belief weighs more than doubt. Coach David Moore centered the week on two things: draft stability and late-game decision-making. “You can win lane now, and you can win objective trades,” Coach said at the whiteboard. “But playoff teams will be better at exposing your seams. They won’t give you this many open windows.”
