The Florida Mayhem defeated the Toronto Defiant 3-1 on Saturday in the upper-bracket final of the West region play-ins at the Overwatch League’s Countdown Cup.

With the win, the Mayhem secured their spot in the OWL Season 5 playoffs.

On Saturday, the Mayhem had to rally after dropping Oasis to the Defiant, 2-0. The Mayhem rebounded, 2-1 on Eichenwalde, 2-1 on Circuit Royal and 1-0 on Colosseo.

The Uprising swept the Justice, 2-1 on Ilios, 4-3 on King’s Row and 3-2 on Circuit Royal.

The Defiant swept the Uprising 2-0 on Ilios, 2-1 on Eichenwalde and 2-1 on Circuit Royal.

The six West region teams already in the playoffs are the Los Angeles Gladiators, Dallas Fuel, Atlanta Reign, Houston Outlaws, London Spitfire and San Francisco Shock.
