edit:
There were a lot of mistakes in this article that I've since corrected, such as a stat about Reyna's winrate on Haven that was incorrect, or stating dimasick was the IGL of liquid (bevause I honestly thought ScreaM being IGL was just a meme). I've been writing a lot of these articles under heavy time constraints, and look forward to being able to commit more time to these articles over the weekend.
