MDL Week 7 Recap - Swole Patrol continue the quest for perfection
Another week down and just under two to go, with all MDL matches having to be completed by November 18th. The post-season roster lock was executed across the platform as well, signifying the end of roster changes until the offseason.
In the last week of play, the MDL boasts six teams above ten wins, with Singularity and Vireo.pro taking the top spots at 12-4, followed by 11-3 teams cantwinalan and Bravado. At 11 wins as well, Spacestation take the fifth spot on the standings ahead of the undefeated giants Swole Patrol. Seeing as the league will feature eight playoff teams, and a 19-game season, it's safe to say that a single win for both Singularity and Vireo.pro will lead to a guaranteed playoff spot.
The middle of the pack still has a lot to prove as they'll be battling for the final playoff spots. The team struggling to break the ten win mold has been Mythic so far as they've lost their last three games, and still have games against the likes of Swole Patrol and Vireo.pro up next.
With Ben "ben1337" Smith back in the lineup, Test Takers have won five of their last seven, but will truly have to prove themselves with remaining matches against Swole Patrol, Singularity and cantwinalan.
