Interesting. Yan was taking control of this early, so I guess I figured he would continue to do so for most of it. But then DJ fought back (though with minimal damage-bar progress) consistently, and took over in terms of damage numbers caused. Im sure this was a messy one for the judges, since its back to that control vs. time of control vs. damage vs. time spent damaging your opponent type thing.

Interesting. Yan was taking control of this early, so I guess I figured he would continue to do so for most of it. But then DJ fought back (though with minimal damage-bar progress) consistently, and took over in terms of damage numbers caused. Im sure this was a messy one for the judges, since its back to that control vs. time of control vs. damage vs. time spent damaging your opponent type thing.
