[short ember]

how does 100 sound 😂

[wet bay]

I quit after like season 7 or 8 in the first chapter

[gritty blaze]

which was pretty good imo

[gritty blaze]

and then it got boring after that

[wet bay]

When the planes and shit first came out I quit

[gritty blaze]

LOL

planes werent even that bad for me

[wet bay]

I probably have hundreds of skins though and all from the earliest seasons

[gritty blaze]

[cyan valley]

Do we get the homestand sprays for going to the owl finals?

[gritty blaze]

these things

so stupidly broken

[karmic bluff]

YOOOO IT DVA

[gritty blaze]

yeah

basically

[quaint sedge]

when am i meant to get my league tokens?

[gritty blaze]

within 48 hours, supposdly the skins will be the 15th

[quaint sedge]

v

can someone send me the channel/livestream so i can get the drops?

[gritty blaze]

wdym

its on the overwatch league youtube channel

the next 5 days of playoffs their will be streams

they all start at the same time everyday

[tidal hornet]

playoffs also give league tokens?

[tidal chasm]

yur im pretty sure

it looks like we get our skins on the 15th tho 😢

[tidal hornet]

what do finals give

[tidal chasm]

.5 hours you get a grand finals 2 spray

1 hour you get the sojourn league skin

and a name card

and 2 hours you get the league skins for junker queen and kiriko

[tidal hornet]

oh those are on the 15th?

[tidal chasm]

yeah those are rewards for watching the grand finals

[gritty python]

why are people complaining about mirror comps on reddit

[tidal hornet]

thx im new

[gritty python]

that's literally what always happens in esports

[minor fog]

Can you watch this on mobile app YT because that’s what I did and got only 5 and then didn’t count but apparently everyone else has this issue

[tidal chasm]

im honestly not sure

ive been watching on desktop

if there's an issue itll most likely be resolved or you can email blizzard support

[minor fog]

Ok

[tidal chasm]

idk people jus dont get how league play works

[gritty python]

yeah if u don't want to watch mirror comps don't watch esports

because that's what happens in esports

[autumn shuttle]

yo, how to check if you got the rewards from watching the league? Do you jus enter the game and itll automatically pop up? (Ive linked everything n watched the league live)

[tidal chasm]

the rewards arent gonna immediately be there and im not sure of a way to check

id wait around 48 hrs for the tokens and the skins will be distributed on the 15th

[autumn shuttle]

15th on nov?

is there anyway to check the hours you've watched?

[tidal chasm]

im not super educated on the topic but i dont think so

and yeah 15th of november

[autumn shuttle]

hmm alright then, thanks man!

[tidal chasm]

np np

[gritty blaze]

this makes me feel a lot better lol

[tidal hornet]

if only it was on twitch

much prefer

[gritty blaze]

i was panicking thinking i spent 7 hours watching a stream just to get nothing

[tidal chasm]

true the drops system is much better there

[autumn shuttle]

i mostly played it in the background...

was shooked by todays results too

[tidal chasm]

october 3-0th

[karmic charm]

London get top 6 in playoffs calling it

[gritty python]

london have always been top tier for the league tho right?

[tidal chasm]

i saying either dynasty or outlaws are winning this year

[karmic charm]

this season?

[gritty python]

like

in general

[karmic charm]

they've always been "top" in the standings but never top tier

oh

no

London was good 2018, mediocre 2019 and awful 2020 and 21

[gritty python]

are new york excelsior up there?

[karmic charm]

not this year but past years ya

[gritty python]

i need to get up to date on my league shit lol

pine still play for them?

[karmic charm]

no

he left in s2 I think?

was on fuel for a bit

[gritty blaze]

same, all 3-0's and some surprising performances tbh

[tidal chasm]

us asians are dominating the ow scene

[gritty python]

would be cool if IDDQD came back to league but i think he said he would never do esportd again sooo

[autumn shuttle]

ahem ahem ye

[rustic kettle]

do the perks you get from watching the live streams progress on uploads or just live broadcasts?

[karmic charm]

most 2018 owl players will never be back

there's only like 18 left

[autumn shuttle]

gotta watch them live

[karmic charm]

carpe is rumoured to be going after this season too

[autumn shuttle]

and hv ur battlenet acct linked to your yt acct

[rustic kettle]

damn

thx

[gritty python]

IDDQD's aim never left btw

still god tier

[karmic charm]

it womt be close to any of the top players now tho

[autumn shuttle]

first time watching ow league and was surprised that basically every team played the same comp

[regal stone]

is there any way to check what b.net account you have connected on youtube without disconnecting cause it might mess up my progress ive already done

[karmic charm]

iddqd only played 1 map in owl agaik

afaik*

[gritty python]

he played for NRG pre-OWL tho

[autumn shuttle]

jus go to battle.net account, then connections, and ensure your google acct is connected

[karmic charm]

yeah but that was 2017

[minor fog]

If there are any console people that can help me please Dm me saying I will

[autumn shuttle]

should be enough

[regal stone]

ty

[gritty blaze]

lol

[autumn shuttle]

i am willing to help but idt i can help

[gritty python]

he's still top 100 DPS

in OW2 rn

[karmic charm]

yeah but ladder different to owl

[gritty python]

he's still OWL tier imo

[karmic charm]

icl I dont even know if he was owl tier in 2018 when he was actually in owl

[forest token]

doubt it

[gritty python]

regardless, he said he doesn't want to live the esports lifestyle ever again

[forest token]

like

yes iddqd is still good

but like

consider proper and kevster

[karmic charm]

or any hitscan dps in playoffs rn tbh

[forest token]

the level of play is so much higher compared to when he last played pro

[karmic charm]

also carpe should definitely retire and go to valorant

[forest token]

wasn't there some leak of him planning on it

[karmic charm]

yes

[forest token]

with like munchkin and sayaplayer

[karmic charm]

going to t1 as a sub

[forest token]

ah as a sub

was about to say that kinda worries me for t1

[karmic charm]

I think most the remaining s1 players will retire after this season

[gritty python]

yup

[tidal chasm]

sad to see OWL legends dropping the game

[gritty python]

i can pray idd comes back but he's already explicitly said he never will

and also i think he hates the meta enough that he won't come back because of that lmao

[karmic charm]

not really dropping the game, more just older players not being able to keep up with fresh competition and/or not having the same kind of drive to compete anymore

[gritty python]

IDD still mains OW2 for streaming rn

and he's still very good

but from what u guys have said he doesn't match others in overwatch league

[karmic charm]

yeah , he can be great in comp but he wouldn't match up with many of the owl players anymore

[gritty python]

and he said specifically he would never do the esports lifestyle again

of playing for 14 hours per day

[gritty python]

yeah like he's still top 100 DPS in NA on ladder but that's different to OWL

[rose plover]

Hey! Does anyone know where I can see the appearance of all the skins of the Playoffs and the Grand Final or if they can't be seen yet?

I've been watching the stream from day 1 of the Playoffs to farm hours and thus claim the viewer perks, but I couldn't see the appearance of the skins that are named, only some that I find searching in Google

[rose plover]

I had seen that and it says on the Blizzard page that the rewards will only be received if viewed from Youtube in a computer

[cloud agate]

myyy pc like disconnected in the middle pf the dtream while i was sleeping

can i still get every skin

[modern parrot]

I haven’t gotten my owl tokens from the past stream yet have you guys??

[rose plover]

But I'm not pretty sure

[rose plover]

If you watched for at least 3 hours you will get some of the rewards, but if you didn't watch for more than 3 hours you will only get some tokens if you watched for at least 1 hour

[rose plover]

It can take up to 48 hours for you to receive your tokens, I have only been given 5 at the moment

[cloud agate]

i think i got the 3 hours my pc disconnected st the florida game and i waczhed the outlaw on my phone

but how do i get every single skin

[rose plover]

btw there will be several streams, don't worry if you couldn't see one

[cloud agate]

yeh yeh

but one question

u need 30 hourd watched

for every skin

[rose plover]

If you want to get every skins you have to see 30 hours of the Playoffs and 2 hours of the Grand Finals

[rose plover]

Yes

[cloud agate]

damn

thats like u have to watch

every

game

stream

fully

[minor fog]

Does this mean the mobile YouTube app works? Iv watched the 7 hours but only got 5 tokens when I was in the website so…

[rose plover]

It really is too long, each stream lasts about 6 hours and it will be 5 streams in total not counting today's

[rose plover]

I hadn't seen that, sorry. If according to that, it works. You have to wait 48 hours to receive your tokens

[cloud agate]

so wait i watched on my phone

[rose plover]

It may take less than 48 hours

[cloud agate]

the outlaw game

right

does that count

[rose plover]

Yep

[cloud agate]

towards hours watcjed

I CAN STILL GET IT

i watched 5 hours

and if i watch all streams

[minor fog]

Okay thanks

[cloud agate]

7 hours

7 times 4

28

plus 4

32

YAYAYA

[rose plover]

But don't be too confident, you have to watch all the complete streams, which is quite difficult

[cloud agate]

nono

i normally let my phone

on

the stream

and i go to sleep

[barren bluff]

i watched more than 3 hours of the stream, i watched it on the firefox browser, I havent received the tokens or the skins..will it arrive within 48 hours?

[rose plover]

If that is the case, yes you will get it unless you run out of battery or connection

[rose plover]

The skins arrive 15th november and your tokens arrive within 48 hours

[cloud agate]

i charge it and judt sleep while watcjing ot

[barren bluff]

ok thanks. is there a way to track progress?

[rose plover]

There isn't, but you can tell by how many tokens you have, every 5 tokens is 1 hour, so if you get 50 tokens you watched 10 hours

[gritty blaze]

takes up to 48 hours to get all ur tokens

[burnt dragon]

Can tokens come out slow? At like three hours I got 10 tokens but haven't seen any since

[rose plover]

Look at the message you have above

[burnt dragon]

Reading comprehension is not my strong suit

[autumn shuttle]

issook bro i understand

[rose plover]

Ohhh, the tokens will arrive within 48 hours

[autumn shuttle]

do you guys think tmrs games will turn out a similar fashion? (3-0)

[burnt dragon]

I hope not

[modern parrot]

I’m hoping they go as long as possible

[rose plover]

Me too

[modern parrot]

More tokens for everyone

[autumn shuttle]

cause id really want to see them play push maps

[burnt dragon]

3-0 is boring

[modern parrot]

Bro wtf was shanghai doing

Also the pickems were bugged and i couldn’t predict will they open for the next round??

[rose plover]

It is really sad that the Shanghai Dragons lose in the first bracket after being champions the previous year

[rose plover]

It's very weird too

[modern parrot]

^?

[rose plover]

I guess it's the champion's curse

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[rose plover]

I didn't pay attention to that

wdym?

[modern parrot]

When will tomorrows pickems release

Like when can I predict

Or did I kiss it

Miss*

[rose plover]

I think the predictions opened only once time

And you had to predict all the Playoffs and the Grand Final

But I couldn't predict because I got an error

[modern parrot]

Same

Rip ig

[rose plover]

Although I don't care either, I'm very bad at predicting

[modern parrot]

It gives free tokens

On token marches

Matches

[balmy wolf]

Anyone know why i only got 5 Overwatch league tokens for watching for 6 hours? I also didn’t get any skins and im starting to think this is a bug or something

[autumn shuttle]

you jus gotta wait, usually takes 48hr before all the tokens show up in ur acct

[rose plover]

Maybe, but I already missed the opportunity so I prefer not to talk about it xD

[rose plover]

You will receive the skins the 15th of november

[balmy wolf]

And the rest of the tickets appear later?

[balmy wolf]

Aight thx I couldn’t get anyone else to reply

[rose plover]

Yep, you have to wait 48 hours and you will have all your tokens

I am in the same situation xD

[fallow oyster]

Where do I watch the streams?

Are they not on twitch?

[autumn shuttle]

on yt

[rose plover]

In the Youtube Channel of Overwatch League

[balmy wolf]

Yr man

[fallow oyster]

bruh

What does "linking a battle.net account" mean then

how do I get the rewards?

[balmy wolf]

Ye lmao i saw like “Overwatch league tokens granted” and i thought it worked then i checked that i only got 5 lmao

[fallow oyster]

I thought they were twitch drops

[rose plover]

The same thing happened to me, at this rate I think I can buy a skin in like 3 years

[balmy wolf]

nah

[rose plover]

idk if i can post links here

[fallow oyster]

🗿

[rose plover]

https://www.youtube.com/OverwatchLeague

[balmy wolf]

But do all of the tokens come at once after 48 hours or im still confused

[rose plover]

https://www.youtube.com/account_sharing

[rose plover]

Connect your account there

[fallow oyster]

I didn't know I could do that with youtube bruh

well apparently I missed a stream

[rose plover]

Maybe they will arrive 5 by 5, but I'm not sure because nobody has their coins yet to check it

[fallow oyster]

Do I still have time for the full 30 hours?

[rose plover]

Probably no, but you can get the other rewards

[balmy wolf]

I be puttin my stream open on my pc and go to sleep and watch the entire stream later for the fights

[fallow oyster]

💀

you have got to be kidding me

fuck

well thanks for the help

[humble crow]

the stream was 7 hours

[rose plover]

Np

[humble crow]

so i think u might have missed 2 sets of skins

[balmy wolf]

Theres thousands of tiktoks about it idk how you missed out on the explanation but that sucks

[rose plover]

7 x 4 = 28 hours

[fallow oyster]

Bro I don't watch tik tok

[rose plover]

You missed 1 set of skins

[fallow oyster]

that's for children

[balmy wolf]

• finales

[rose plover]

Yeah

[bold hinge]

anyone else without tokens credited?

[balmy wolf]

We all got 5 :/

[bold hinge]

I've got none 💀

[rose plover]

But the finals are separate, you can have seen not even 1 hour of streams but watch 2 hours of the finals and you will still get those rewards

[balmy wolf]

Dang

[humble crow]

yea but theres news like this on there though

[fallow oyster]

🎃

why

[balmy wolf]

Ive watched the stream the entire night and overwatch wont even announce something about it

[humble crow]

i just left the stream on whilst i slept

[rose plover]

Everyone has 5 or 0 tokens xD

[bold hinge]

Has this been the case before the playoffs?

I haven't been catching up on my coins xD

[rose plover]

Yep

[gritty blaze]

yep can vouch

[humble crow]

what are encore streams cause everybody in the live chat is talking about it

[bold hinge]

what about the skins tho

[rose plover]

I'm wondering the same thing, I have no idea

[rose plover]

The skins are given 15th november

[humble crow]

sux

[balmy wolf]

I really hope I didn’t waste my entire night to get 5 tokens

[humble crow]

you wont have

the website states 5 tokens per hour

[balmy wolf]

The stream ended what how many hours ago?

[humble crow]

idk man

[rose plover]

Like 4/5 hours ago

[humble crow]

it could take a bit for them to load in

i got my first 5 after the first hour

[balmy wolf]

No 2 hours ago

[humble crow]

and that was it

[rose plover]

But imagine they have to give the tokens for like 300.000 people

[bold hinge]

"Earn Overwatch League home & away skins for all heroes, including the 3 newest Overwatch 2 Heroes: Sojourn, Junker Queen, and Kiriko"

[rose plover]

So, the service is saturated

[balmy wolf]

That should’ve given me 5 x 2 tokens then

[rose plover]

Those skins are for watching 2 hours of the Grand Final

[humble crow]

u watched 2 hours?

[bold hinge]

but they mentioned ALL heroes

[humble crow]

there is all heroes

[rose plover]

All heroes if you watch 30 hours of Playoffs and 2 hours of Grand Finals

[humble crow]

you just get those 3 in the final stream

[balmy wolf]

No i watched 7 but if what you say us right with 5 tokens per hour id have 10 now

[bold hinge]

skins for ALL heroes, but have yall gotten the skins for other heroes other than the 3 new ones?

[rose plover]

https://overwatchleague.com/en-us/2022/playoffs?playoffs=perks

[humble crow]

no i mean 5 tokens per hour watched

[rose plover]

Read everything

[humble crow]

so you would have 35

[balmy wolf]

And i have 5 soo

[humble crow]

so do i

[bold hinge]

ah thanks

[humble crow]

because we have to wait for them to load

[rose plover]

I will send a screenshot to you in DMs

[bold hinge]

sure

[elfin epoch]

Is there anyway to track how much time I've watched?

[rose plover]

@elfin epoch

[balmy wolf]

This is stupid twitch drops were so much more better

[bold hinge]

ok imma just give it some time for the skins to load in i guess

[humble crow]

what were twitch drops

[rose plover]

The bad thing about Twitch drops is that you never ensure the rewards, maybe you are unlucky and nothing comes out or you have very good luck and everything comes out

[rose plover]

Imagine watching 30 hours and getting nothing

[balmy wolf]

Not like im getting any drops now the last 2 hours

hey guys, does anybody know if you can still. get rewards by watching the clips on YouTube? They were streaming the playoffs late yesterday, so i couldn't watch them.

[humble crow]

no its only the livestreams

[elfin epoch]

I at least watched 3 hours but I only have 5 league tokens

[rose plover]

You only can get tokens by watching the livestreams

[balmy wolf]

oh wow

[humble crow]

you can watch the next ones though

i left my pc on whilst it was streaming to sleep

[rose plover]

You have to wait max 48 hours

[balmy wolf]

Btw @rose plover what happens if you watch live on 2 devices

[elfin epoch]

k

[rose plover]

I'm not an expert, but the time probably won't accumulate, it would be an abuse if you could accumulate the time of several devices at the same time

[balmy wolf]

Aight

[bold hinge]

encore in 7 hours

[rose plover]

What is encore?

I have that question

Sorry for the ignorance

[bold hinge]

they will broadcast day 1 again i guess

[rose plover]

And you will get rewards for that or naw?

[humble crow]

maybe

[bold hinge]

yeah maybe

i'd say maybe tune in to see if there's a connected/rewards icon

since grand finals will have an encore

[rose plover]

Where do you see the encore stream?

[humble crow]

theres grand finals and grand finals encore on the overwatch league channel rn

[rose plover]

Can you send the link?

[humble crow]

https://youtu.be/hO1XjffJ5f8

it starts way earlier

[rose plover]

Ohhh

If the encore count for the rewards, that is the way i can get 30+ hours

I'll ask a moderator btw

[humble crow]

cheers

can you @ me with the results? because ill be at school

[rose plover]

Yep, no problem

[humble crow]

thanks

[ripe cobalt]

Hi, the other week i saw every league stream and i got 0 token, now i saw the all Live and got the token for only 2 of them, It is normal?

[mortal abyss]

It does count for rewards iirc

[rose plover]

They can take up to 48 hours to arrive

[formal socket]

Hi guys I’m looking for a team of players for my new competive team, anyone interested playing?

[rose plover]

Oh ok thanks, but I already asked xD

[rose plover]

Use the LFG channel

[formal socket]

Ah gotcha thanks

[rose plover]

Select your roles in #roles-old

So you can unlock the looking for channels

[ripe cobalt]

So the other week i saw the league for nothing

[rose plover]

If you had not connected your account, yes

btw if you connected your account and watched the stream you probably only have to wait a few days or hours

[balmy wolf]

Has anyone received their rewards for watch overwatch league yet?

[rose plover]

I only received 5 tokens

[balmy wolf]

So it’s probably gonna be awhile until they come in

I’m waiting for my bastion skin

[rose plover]

You will receive your bastion skin the 15th of november

Like, that is the exact day you will receive the skin

[bold hinge]

https://www.overwatchleague.com/en-us

its right at the top

the other link that was sent here is the Grand Finals encore

dont mix it up with the playoffs

[rose plover]

Ohh, yeah i saw

[heady wedge]

so if i watch all streams do i get like

600 tokens?

[rose plover]

32 hours x 5 = 162

You will get 162 tokens if you watch 32 hours of Stream

[heady wedge]

is that all of em

[humble crow]

you get an extra 100 for watching 30 hours

[balmy wolf]

That’s a weird way, but how would you know how many hours you watched?

[bold hinge]

mental count

[heady wedge]

i only want the zenyatta skin thats why im askin

[rose plover]

You will get 100 more when you reach 30 hours of the Playoffs

[heady wedge]

god that zen skin is so nice

[bold hinge]

i rather u save up for the grand finals winner skin hahaha

[rose plover]

Then you only have to watch 9 hours of Playoffs

[heady wedge]

the what skin?

[rose plover]

Zenyatta

[bold hinge]

im saving for the champion skin

[heady wedge]

i did qatch the first stream which was 8hrs

[humble crow]

has to be 9 hours

[rose plover]

So... You only have to watch 1 hour

[heady wedge]

neat

metal balls

[humble crow]

i thought the stream was 7 hours?

[rose plover]

btw The stream was 7 hours 15 minutes

[rose plover]

Yep, you are right

[bold hinge]

[bold hinge]

[rose plover]

Now the people have to spend their time

And the money doesnt buy time

So you are winning

[humble crow]

i just want royal night mercy but the streams dont give enough tokens

[bold hinge]

but i wont get my tokens back

i would just leave the stream on

its 5am when the playoffs starts from where i am

[rose plover]

I don't know if you knew, but any direct from the league of contenders or the overwatch league gives tokens, not just the ones from the "world cup"

[heady wedge]

how again

[bold hinge]

contenders doesnt give tokens

[heady wedge]

i kinda went lost

[bold hinge]

just watch 24hrs

[heady wedge]

ahhh

[bold hinge]

scroll down it aint that hard

[heady wedge]

im 7 hours in

neat

[rose plover]

I used to think yes, they used to give me tokens

[bold hinge]

you got zhulong player icon already?

[humble crow]

wait so there will be more streams that arent this set?

[heady wedge]

nope i pnly got 5 tokens when i opened the game

[rose plover]

All the rewards (not tokens) are given out the 15th of november

[bold hinge]

at least contender skins r great

[balmy wolf]

Everyone check twitter under Overwatch league tokens and everyone has the token/ skin problem

[rose plover]

Like player icons and banners counts for the 15th of november

[bold hinge]

shit im blind

[rose plover]

xD

[rose plover]

Yep, is global

[heady wedge]

rn my stuff is delayed

so when i opened the game i just saw 5 tokens

[humble crow]

everybody is

[heady wedge]

i think rest will come eventually

[bold hinge]

they should award the skins like contenders tbh

[heady wedge]

btw idk how but i have diff genji skins

[humble crow]

away and home?

[heady wedge]

away and home

there are skins that re just givem free to all players

right?

[humble crow]

i have them tio

too

[heady wedge]

like jack morrison

[rose plover]

What I don't like about the skins is that they are just a recolor, it doesn't really add anything new to them, the only thing I like is the Overwatch League title pasted on the skin

[heady wedge]

reyes

the pharah one

[humble crow]

i think so

[heady wedge]

tigers recolor is cool

black and gold

has some style

[rose plover]

I also don't like that there isn't a way to track progress

[bold hinge]

contender skins are just a budget outlaws skin

[rose plover]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[rose plover]

The skins that are worth it are the ones that do not belong to any team like Happi's, they add something new to the skin

[rose plover]

https://overwatchleague.com/en-us/news/happi-genji-brings-festival-flair-to-the-summer-showdown-tournament

[bold hinge]

rare ones like alien zarya

heh

[rose plover]

Btw the store refresh the 15Nov.

[karmic bluff]

bro just said happi genji is good 💀

[rose plover]

Yeah XD

[humble crow]

happi sucks

[karmic bluff]

fr

[candid radish]

I went to bed after London what the fuck happened

[bold hinge]

i only bought happi cause they will increase the price lmao

[rose plover]

For tastes there are colors

It was just an example

[slender flame]

down horrendous

[bold hinge]

mcdonalds mayhem was terrible

[humble crow]

what 💀

[karmic bluff]

london kill, spark kill, mayhem kill and outlaws kill

[humble crow]

mcdonalds

[bold hinge]

u must be new

[karmic bluff]

all those teams won 3-0

[humble crow]

sort of

havent played in 3 years

[bold hinge]

head to ur ow game and search the owl skins

[rose plover]

I actually like the Knight Mercy skin

Prolly better than Happi

[humble crow]

okay

[bold hinge]

u can see 2018 valiant, shock, mayhem etc

[karmic bluff]

you have really bad taste

[slender flame]

was every single game that monkey kiriko mirror or was there any other comp

[humble crow]

its good

[rose plover]

Probably

[humble crow]

wait so knight mercy wont be in the shop after nov 15

[candid radish]

I thought the finals were gonna be competitive

[rose plover]

Yep

[karmic bluff]

?????????????

[humble crow]

bruh

[slender flame]

i only watched the first game but carpe was not being competitive

[karmic bluff]

carpe is leaving for valorant

[rose plover]

eSports are in decline

The only final I really enjoyed was the one in 2019

[slate siren]

Spark beat the dragons

wow

[karmic bluff]

yup

3-0

[candid radish]

Carpe washed

[rose plover]

Games are becoming more and more diversified, as time goes by more titles come out and players who were once good at one game are moving on to a new one. I feel that this means that eSports are not enjoyed as before due to the departure of several iconic players

[rose plover]

Incredible yes

[candid radish]

Unfortunately

[rose plover]

tbh Overwatch would have had a good competitive scene if it had been out longer, 2010/2011

[karmic bluff]

“unfortunately”

[rose plover]

The rise of games such as CS:GO that came out 10 years ago lasted as long as Overwatch could have lasted if they had taken advantage of the potential and player base they had at the time

[rose plover]

Right now there are about more than 25 million players who have connected in the past 10 days, I think they should take advantage of that as a new resurgence of the competitive scene

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[karmic charm]

the iconic players are leaving because theyre simply not as good as the new talent coming into the game tho?

there will always be new players who come in and get labelled as iconic

[rose plover]

There are not many new talents, the majority of "new talents" are players who have been playing for years and have only just become known, the new players really have very little chance of getting into the competitive game, all the players who join already have a previous experience, it is impossible to name just 1 professional player who started playing at least 6 months ago

[slender flame]

^ i feel like a lot of rookies this year had a great performance

i dont think shock couldve been where they are now with super

[rose plover]

Right now the competitive is based on people who have already participated in various tournaments and events, there are very few new additions and that is a think i dislike about the competitive of ow

There are more people leaving than people entering

Probably in 1/2 years we are going to see the rookies of this year incorporing in the competitive

[karmic charm]

but this is the reason contenders exist?

its called path to pro for a reason

ppl prove their worth in contenders, get promoted to owl

new players come to contenders

it repeats

[rose plover]

New players can't get into the contenders league just like that, just like a lot of other players need a team, be too good, etc... Without a team or not standing out, I doubt you'll be able to go too far without getting stuck

And the problem is, people don't get promoted to the league, their teams are

[karmic charm]

an example is prophet on o2

started playing pro

in march

already won kr contenders

[rose plover]

Good example, but Ow2 will need a lot of new teams

Years have passed and new teams takes a long time to arrive

[karmic charm]

teams usually post on socials when they are looking for tryouts, many new players get into the path to pro through this no?

[rose plover]

You can live with that, but when the teams we already have go, there are going to be few replacements or very rookie teams

[rose plover]

Perhaps, I have not said that there are no new players, but I think that would not solve much

[karmic charm]

imo there are plenty of new rookies in t2/3, they grind to prove they deserve owl

many owl rookies have only played since like, 2020ish

not many old people coming into the league anymore

[rose plover]

You are right

[karmic charm]

which is pretty healthy imo

but everyone has their opinions

[rose plover]

My opinion is, the teams need experience in the competitive, without experience, they will be rookies and with rookie teams there will not be as much competition as there was a few years / months ago

Time equals experience and the new teams depend on having a lot of time to become professional teams and be able to compete in the league

[slender flame]

that's literally why open league and contenders exist

[rose plover]

You cannot buy contender league teams with league teams

[rose plover]

They can't be compared

[slender flame]

there's no league you can compare to OWL

that's the point

[rose plover]

Right

[slender flame]

it's where the best players are

but open and contenders are valid competitive experience and the best experience you can get excluding OWL

[rose plover]

And what I'm talking about is that those teams in the league of contenders need an opportunity to be in the league to be able to have experience and improve as a team to be able to offer more competition between teams

[slender flame]

which is why OWL teams pick players out of contenders

[halcyon spoke]

I have one question about the overwatch league coins. So i left my pc on for the night, to watch the league, and i got 6 ow coins. Is that correct, should it be more or?

[rose plover]

If they get stuck in the league of contenders, they won't get anywhere

[rose plover]

Depend on how many hours did you watched

1 hour = 5 tokens

And you have to wait at least 48 hours to receive your tokens

[halcyon spoke]

Thank you

[rose plover]

No problem

[raw portal]

Hello, yesterday i see the overwatch league for 7 hours but i do not get the gengi,bastion or tracer skins, do i have to claim them in any part?

[rose plover]

Nope, you have to wait to the 15th november and you will get the skins

Did you linked your battle.net account to your Youtube channel?

[raw portal]

yes

[raw portal]

and also its normal if i only get 5 league coins?

[rose plover]

Yep, you have to wait at least 48 hours to get your tokens

Everyone have that problem

[raw portal]

oh ok thx

❤️

[rose plover]

[cloud agate]

[alpine relic]

So I watched the whole stream yesterday, and when I started my game today there was the little pop up "you got OWL tokens" but there were none added and I didn't get any skins neither, is it normal ?

[rose plover]

Hey! The skins are delivered on November 15, the tokens are given with a delay of at least 48 hours

[alpine relic]

Thanks a lot ! (Might want to pin this tho)

[rose plover]

I can send it to your DM so you don't lose it

[alpine relic]

It's not for me, I think I can remember, it's just that it might become a frequently asked question

[rose plover]

I assure you, I already answered the same question about 30 times and i was in this server for like 2/3 hours

[cloud agate]

i wanna watch the full stream tonigj on my phone while i sleep foes tjaz work

And the rest on 15th November

[cursive cypress]

But why I get only 5?

[knotty cipher]

Idk, same here

[iron plume]

[vapid moon]

[cursive cypress]

Is bugged for tokens , skins need wait 15 November

[lunar knoll]

Overwatch League tokens can take up to 48 hours to be granted to an account. Once granted, tokens will appear in the Overwatch League section of the Overwatch lobby.

[lunar knoll]

[cursive cypress]

Mhh but I got 5 before 48h. I think is bug

[lunar knoll]

yeah probs jus to give u some

then update later

[cursive cypress]

Maybe

Lot of ppl got only 5

[ebon aurora]

Do we think this Soujorn/Reaper/Winston/Lucio/Kiriko comp is going to be the meta for the whole of the playoffs or do you think there will be some more variety in comps further down the line?

[balmy wolf]

do the encore Livestreams on YouTube count towards drops? Like the Fusion vs Spitfire in a couple hours?

[ebon aurora]

yes

they do

[balmy wolf]

ok thanks

[knotty cipher]

Asking the same

[knotty cipher]

Oh, epic

[lost thicket]

Danteh the goat tbh

dps to tank and still fucking

[meager tulip]

Anyone willing to answer some gameplay questions in my DMs? Plat and would appreciate it!

[ebon aurora]

against one of the weaker teams sure, will his Winston hold up against people like Fearless, Smurf, Reiner etc

[cosmic plover]

There are 4 upcoming owl lives do they have drops

[hushed merlin]

Yeah, do the reruns have drops?

[vagrant jacinth]

Yes

[fringe spruce]

how did the teams work after turning into 5v5 ? did they straight up just kick someone

[hushed merlin]

Possibly, I do remember hearing something about team size changes

[tepid ibex]

Season 5 rosters were made for 5v5 so just like how a normal off season would go

[vagrant jacinth]

They just built with 5v5 in mind yeah

[plucky helm]

will there be more than 30 hours to watch worth of owl?

[silver cradle]

3 hours until Encore

[north relic]

Fusion lower bracket run to finals

[silver cradle]

Yes

Since the last reward is 30 hours they will obviously make you able to earn it

[keen abyss]

it is carpe’s last tournament the narrative dictates that the curse has to end here

london upper bracket run to grands

alternatively seoul

either way carpe will make it to grand finals against london/seoul and take the W

and the 2nd curse will be broken

his first season he came second to profit in grand finals

his last season profit comes second to him in grand finals

carpe was the protagonist all along

[uncut drum]

the way london dominated could they take glads to map 5

or will it be a 3-1 that people think

[cloud agate]

how do i check if did watch the stream

[north relic]

3-0 glads

[lapis lodge]

why didn’t i get my skin or tokens

i only got 5 tokens from the first hour but i watched all 7+ hours

[crimson dagger]

same

i watched 3h and i didnt get anything

[uncut drum]

i feel like they could take a map

[uncut drum]

it takes 48hs

[balmy wolf]

i was just about to ask why i only got two hours worth but nvm! question answered

[bold spade]

yo i cant put any predictions on the overwatch pick em site help?

[quaint hinge]

You need to set the Finals winner score to 4

[civic vigil]

To get the rewards?

[bold spade]

im having trouble finding it can u send me a screen shot of it or something

[cloud agate]

my phone gonna burn tonight

[balmy wolf]

[balmy wolf]

[civic vigil]

I shall ask once more, I watched the whole stream yesterday and only got 5 tokens, where are my 6 skins and 30 tokens

[balmy wolf]

[balmy wolf]

i assume up to 48 hours

[hardy crown]

does encore stream count?

[uncut drum]

yeah

[uncut drum]

yes

[knotty cipher]

Yes

[knotty cipher]

There's also encore stream which is basically the replay of the yesterday stream and according to someone in this channel if you watch them you get tokens and stuff

[cyan forum]

wondering

im new to pickem for the owl, how does it work? is it currently shut?

[balmy wolf]

[knotty cipher]

https://youtu.be/3XxfxkmgWKg

The stream from yesterday is getting streamed again in 4 different streams, the one I sent is gonna start first in 2 hours

Click the channel and go to videos and find the other 3

[balmy wolf]

Anyone who knows please inform

[jagged crater]

Why people slept on hydron?

Dude is nuts
