Are these players pro?
No offence, I'm just asking.
Contenders
I mean...
Honest mistake
Yeah.
semi-pro
he panicked and thought he would make it to cover where his team are before orisa stopped the charge
it is a mistake but in those games there's a lot of thing going on, everyone is talking so it is really hard to concentrate. I know it because I scrim a lot and when i self review my games afterwards I sometimes notice that I did a simple mistake that even a plat player wouldn't do. So in other words, I don't blame nor make fun of that person because it can happen to the best. Pros are pros because they can concentrate even in the hardest moments.
Ew
Yeah thats why i said honest mistake cause it can happen to even the best
u chose him when theres somone like xQc 💀
wdym by a "professional match"
it's semi pro
semi pro isnt pro
there's a huge gap
contenders teams regularly beat owl teams
Wast that just Korean contenders
Trick Room beat Shock
Twisted Minds beat NYXL
and took a map off Outlaws
Saints beat (semi pro) Vegas Valiant and Gladiators (scrim)
I remember that dynasty got beaten badly by contenders team
but they're not pros
idc they're not pros
then what are they
they get paid so they're not amateurs
semi pros
.
define semi pro
is it just
''people ana doesnt wanna call pro so they add semi to make them seem less important''
????????
there are tons of contenders players who rely on contenders for a living
HUH
who said that
i cannot believe what i just read
"contenders players who rely on contenders for a living"
there's no money on contenders to begin with and they don't get paid to play
the just play for fun and some extra cash
they all have daily lives and they have jobs outside the game (some are below 18 and even have school for example turki or tr33)
????
extra cash besides their daily job
are u ok?
If u win u get extra cash but if u dont u get 0
hows this works with your "making a living out of contenders"
so what
do u think 7 k is much
its gonna split to 10+ people
700 dollars are NOTHING compared to what the real pros (owl players) earn
u can make 100 dollars per day if u work
u act like we still have the 2020 300k+ contracts going around
proper has that contract
that's why shock recruited contenders players
because they used all their money on him
they wanted to keep him in the team by using all their money
which was a very foolish decision because it caused their team to be full of rookies and contenders players
proper is an amazing player but one guy cannot do everything
Aint no way u think any player is getting 300k rn
Im p sure almost everyone has 50k
And some good players have like 70/80k
if u look at shock's roster im pretty sure proper is getting a lot of money even though its 300k its at least 150k
Nrg is losing money no way proper getting that much
if u look at their roster
u can clearly see that
shock that we knew are playing with some rookies and contenders
like wtf
god bless the hotbabe coolboy back line 
fr
? I don't think that's true
esp now they won lcs
No one in owl is turning a profit
Also there have been some exorbitant contracts in owl before
There def still are
nobody is making a profit from owl but nrg still has shitloads of money to put into it
the only year it did profit was 2018 with high profit and little to close to none in 2019 it has not bad profit from then
Didt there val team ask for donations?
I hate that I can't tell if you're talking about money or the player
when
I swear I remember isak on either dps or supp
is chazm still on this team and is just benched bc meta
Hotbabe35, coolboy163 > Viol2t, shu
Afaik benched
LOL
Hey guys sorry a bit of an off topic question but if I wear a Large T-shirt what size jersey should I order from the official league store? I'm assuming large but idk what the sizes run like
I know, that's why I want my spark jersey now lmao
Idc if its not around much longer, I love the team and I want a jersey
Will owl continue?
It will, just not at the scale that it is right now
No
Owl won't continue past 2 years
After it shuts down another league or two might pop up
bro cloudy is so gigachad
Overwatch league itself most likely won’t but overwatch esports will continue
Just not as owl
pharmercycel twisted frauds vs reinpilled srpeakcheck chads
how far did saudi reach in the last WC
they lost both attack and defense cuz of that
i got banned from twtich
popped both support ults for nothing
cuz i said why did u ult dolla
and twistyed just kited
?
everyone is full hp
they KNOW that nano will come
the barrage
attack last fight they popped beat and window to engage and got nothing for it
defense last fight they popped beat and window and got nothing for it
dolla threw
i got banned cuz dolla threw
zz
You probably said other things as well
ppl say so bad stuff and i get suspended cuz they're so sensitive
Maybe you say that shit too often
i was frustrated
idgaf
i saw this exact message in the twitch chat and the guy got banned for it
mods so sensitive
Yeah and chat doesn’t give a fuck about you being able to watch them
fr
what are u cookin bro
Let’s go quartz playing
I’m saying mods fucking hate you
and i say idgaf about ur opinion
That’s fine
good
Yep
at least its 14 day ban
THAT WAS ME LOL
I GOT TIMED OUT FOR 10 MINUTES
?????
You chilling
yeah lol
10 MIN?
yes
I GOT 14 DAYS
What did you say
no shot
pharmercycel twisted frauds vs reinpilled srpeakcheck chads
was that your first ban
y
or do you have history
no history
mods can see prior bans
and can put notes like "banned for x"
Maybe they’ve been toxic before but never got banned for it till now
i might said arab bomber lbb7
like when ppl r like "Woah WTF Pronouns Wtf"
I MIGHTTTTT
they ban fast
💀
but they also time out when uh
that makes more sense lol
"pharmercycel twisted frauds vs reinpilled srpeakcheck chads"
thats why!
KEKW
Smh
somehowww
one time
i said
why doesnt this woman caster never smile
i got 10 min timeout
shes ice cold
i want a happy caster
She’s watching ow why would she smile
TRU 💀
nah i think shes cool
nah
Why is hanzo still using ow1 contender skin
i dont like her
XD
we watch contenders
shes the only woman caster who offers good analysis about the game
I’ve seen some people in chat complain that she misses important moments
vikki better
Nah not her
vikki > nekkra > icecold woman
dawg nekkra is just there to be fake positive
Vikki? The one with the smoker voice?
ive never heard deeper analysis than "x team has more ults" come from her mouth
I mean…I can live with that
i dont like custa or jaws btw
Ofc you don’t
i mean
zzzz
mitch> legday > avrl > custa > jaws > mr x
mr x is so bad
he talks like an npc
Idk who that is
the guy who casts big games
wtf
holigan beat
thats such a big throw
dolla threw 2 times today
ult economy went from pretty close to not remotely close
ok twisted popped everything
we back
):
XD
aight
we got steamrolled
i saw it
FK
dolla wintraded
that's the only explanation
btw
torb add > jq add
And there shit and they are 300 per one real expensive
Are they really that desperate??
probably just dumping skins
the charm is also available
prolly just wanna make money before owl ends

Damn
We w
yep
map 2 and 3 were super close on top of srp taking map 1
it was a close series
XD
leak mafia is so fake
all of their content is about football lolz
F
So far, we know guanzhou and nyx is confirmed to leave
Toronto is gonna stay
Any other confirmed things we know??
is any of that actually confirmed
Nyx tweeted
I heard guanzhou sent a statement from some ppl but I could never find the original tweet
And Toronto is from today
Nyxl leaving???
Ya one of those players
Charge as far as we know don’t have a coach just 6 players and a manger
Here
What is this
Are they not playing for the grand finals
Or is this after this season ends
that means they are no longer operating their contenders team
Basically just seeing what happens when the owl season ends
Nooo not the best media team
Ah I seen this didt think much of it since contenders pretty much makes no money
Most up to date ow enthusiast:
send
this is a fkn academy team bro
not the actually nyxl
Lmaooo true
Fr tho it feels so dead I don't even keep up anymore lmao
Plus I haven't used Twitter since it switched to x so I missed the monthly x player is a weirdo last month 😭
bruh
Twitter updating it's logo to suggest what button you should press on the top right
wdym
It's NYXL Academy
It's NYXL Academy
It's NYXL Academy
(also you saved the twitter embed issue with one simple letter)
oh I’m goofy
we could of had a league below OWL but above contenders
but AB never figured out how to make teams run academy teams with any incentive to operate a worse version of themselves
imagine being asked to field a 5 man minimum 50k roster in owl and also a smaller team which also costs money
just to lose money every year
Paris Eternal Patiphan
Some acads never had the potential to retain star studded talent pools
Gladiators Legion xQc
How much does the owl even give to the winning team?
Not alot
zzz
winning what
it depends
is it pro am? mid-season madness? playoffs?
Like just winning something
I heard that every team is probably losing money
they are losing cuz theres no LAN/offline matches where ppl can buy tickets to watch and eventually buy jerseys etc.
covid killed the league
I see
there's a lot of problem with the league. 1 it moved to youtube from twitch because of a contract. 2 covid killed the offline/LAN games where ppl could go and cheer their team and buy jerseys or some other team stuff that will help their team operate in the future. 3 the distance between states makes the offline/LAN events hard because we say that LA glads will play versus FL mayhem then they have to take a 10h airplane for a game or hows that gonna work u know cuz there are stuff like home/away even the team skins has that. 4 terrible marketing of the league and not making it like LEC, LCS, LCK, LPL format where all the games are being played offline. 5 creating state teams instead of city teams with narrow distances.
sean miller is a money eating non knowledgeable person remove that person from the head of OWL
tbh it's not his fault either it's the bosses above him. they know nothing but revenue and they don't care about what players/fans want or how they feel
imagine the crowd cheering after you made a huge play vs. u make the same but there's no sound coming
it actually makes the game more intense but yeah that's what i think
That sucks, do you think if owl operated all in one city it’d be way better?
Like all the teams in one city
Or is that unrealistic
ofc it would look at LEC from league they all come to a certain place from different game houses with a van and play their games and then go back and they sell so many tickets, jerseys and other stuff like food and the food companies pay LEC to sell stuff
not one city but like in same state/country
i don't know
but there's one thing i know and it's that this state to state thing is ass and doesnt work
welcome to another episode of ''random whomegalul knows more about planning multi million dollar leagues than the actual multi million dollar league''
let me guess ur next idea is to get rid of the franchises
This week I feel like will be 3 overwatch for most of the matches
Week*
my next idea is to block u
new meta is very bad
block me whomegalul
i dont want teams to play orisa
your takes are ass
''umm ackshually the league should have listened to me''
shut up
ur ideas are so garbage oh wait u dont have any idea
at least im saying my opinions
on how to fix the league
and why its ass
Also remember this was bobby's fault at the start
5he stakeholder didn't want this league
He used his power to override it
Okay so the main issue of the league is bad upper management??
bobby fked the league
yes
and kinda no
The main reason he thought that this league will do anything is he read one article by Goldman Sachs
And was like that sounds good
Why did they never go back to offline matches after covid then
its theirs
Not worth
The money
The costs
how old are u
Look at Korea rn
legit question
I’m sorry I have no idea what’s happening in Korea
owl is so hungry for money that they switched their streaming platform
What’s happening there??
and lost all their viewers
Oh
It was not owl
Is there any chance of it becoming good after this season or then fixing their issues?
?
he's just making tons of shit up here lmao
It was because was was costing more money than Google and to move servers to them
Owl was not the reason for the move
Are you stupid
It gave money
But not the main reason for the move
lower ur tone
but that doesnt help his narrative
bullshit
Calling me the dog when your brain can't read anything
Did you read the contact
Aws costs more than Google server
I think
you guys should hug it out
no its all for money: source i read it on reddit
fun fact owl uses their players pcs for crypto mining
what are u cooking ninja
Why would Google want a esport scene that is dying
i just searched to confirm
for clicks
what i know
Is esports overwatch profitable at all?
post ur results
Why is invasion another 10 dollars even with the battle pass? I thought they said it was gonna be included with it. That being said they also said we were gonna get a full pve campaign so Idk
They moved after the drama
Why is this in #esports-discussion
5 dollars
it's alright we talk about everything here
we're all friends
Oh alright
we talk about metas and stuff
Whoops. I thought it said overwatch discussion. Anyway Its not that big of a deal
Mathel new scam????
Still they said initially it was gonna be included
They cancelled the original vision due to higher ups (I think?)
my friend u pay 5 dollars for bp exp missions, soj skin and the missions
u suck
they never said it
im just saying this bullshit so u guys don't cry to mods and make me banned
cuz i know ppl will do it
I thought the mods aside doctor six wasn’t active
legit how old are u, not making fun of u i wanna know
i dont know if ur just stubborn as fuck or if ur just 13

Oh btw I wanted to ask, is Vegas eternal officially out this season??
Or can they still make a comeback
HELL YEAH BABYYY
yes they're out
they're ass
we're fucking dead
Crying
dove best emp
Poor rakattak
My only lifeweaver representation in owl that was more then 10 seconds 🙏
fuck rackattack
dove emp
What did he do??
his best 
Oh…
HAHAHAHAHHAA
They were never in
💀
Was Vegas ever a good team
i legit might just do a drinking game for the last few paris games, 1 shot for every pulse knife hits, every person dove hits with emp and such
give me suggestions
Does this mean your gonna be sober??
Ye it still is terrible. They have been working on this for over 4 years. And the only content we got was the stuff they showed back in 2019
U would not be drinking much with that emp part
i legit might die
Like it annoys me so much
avalla effect be like
Avalla I think her\his name is??
she's not a coach lool
she's pretty poggers
accorrding to some players she's very toxic, and screws over other players just to secure the bag for herself
She gives off mercy 1trick vibes
for every emp he misses i take a shot
Bro you're dead 😭
i will go down with the ship
He emped the health pack, there’s some value 🙏
vegas dies and i go with them
ayooo??? ⁉️
not like that
I like watching owl to sleep
It’s like relaxing Minecraft parkour
Hearing the sounds of winston jump
i love sleeping to the sounds of ''and dove hits 0 with the emp and dies''
you cant misclick that many emps
Wait he missed more then one emp??
hes dove
he just never hits em 🔥
Is Vegas playing with gold players??
they ARE gold players
I didn’t know I can apply for Vegas
Knife would have been picked up next year if we had a next year
Is there really no chance of owl living anothe year
So far all we know is that all teams should be taking it but Toronto
I think they want another year
Oh good
Toronto becomes the first overwatch league team to fight against ai controlled bots??
Glads would lose against ai i can see why they backing out
Gladiators confirmed to back out??
Uggg
fuck kevster
I was begging on my knees for la gladiator to win that London match
Why can’t a ugly ass color scheme like the San Francisco shock lose
Btw are the best teams like Atlanta/Houston/Florida staying maybe??
What did Florida say??
their gm has said that they will be there in the future whatever it is
Real asf
WOOOO!!!
im sick and tired of hearing kevster this and kev that 😭😭
mf is like mid tier mid rn
Hes ass his team is ass and they got blocked by mayhem
''KEVSTER IS GOATED!!!1!!!'' and then kevster gets diffed by fucking backbone
right lmfao
Is Washington justice a bad game
tbh i just hate all top tier dps
Team
kevster, decay, proper
Backbone kinda goated
they all suck ass
yk whose not decaying
seeker
that man will carry nyxl to a win if he explodes trying
wait
seeker isnt on nyxl
seeker is aspire but not a pedo creep
wholesome 100
owl player try to talk to someone your own age (HARD FOR BOSTON PLAYERS)
you think thatsbad wait till u hear about smash players
wait till u hear about pro tf2 players
legit wait
because u will never hear about any of them
Didn’t that happened for csncourver too
Vancouver
Earlier this year
Yep.
During the uhhhhh world cup
One of the players was accused of grooming an underage who said he knew the age of the person
Oh Damn
lol
aspire F
They still would be mid
too good but loses to the second worst team in the league
one man cant do everything
why is pick em not updated bro
B4nny
Yaki and him both flopped
Yaki goated bro wym
no wonder you support vegas
my little rant about overwatch ranked and how terrible this card system is. i miss overwatch 1 sometimes. THUMBNAIL BY MY LOVELY FRIEND FAREEHA PLEASE CHECK HER OUT IF YOU LIKE MUSIC ITS WONDERFUL AND SO IS SHE @Fareeha
THIS
PLEASE BLIZZARD
MAKE THIS HAPPEN
i dont like this eskay person but in this video they really killed it
bring sr back fr
She’s wrong about NAW and Central having different queues
Multiple games do this but if anything add NAE cuz she does state east doesn’t have one but it’s locked to Central or you can go to EU with a VPN
you don't hate ZEST
Exit X, close out the app
Wait i never thought about this but this does mean that NA has two top 500 charts for west and east/mid?
Yeah i know i said top tier dps, not mid tier
no
the server is same
only the ping is different
Thats wack
so if u live in the west u play west and get low ping and if u live in east u get low ping
however longer queue times
but it only applies gm 1 or 2
other ranks doesnt matter
cuz the players will be enough and u will get quick games
So t500 basically share one server on na
Zest is the goat 🐐 wdym
Zest cant lateral raise 5kg
Ok but what other tracer in the league always ego sticks the enemy tracer?
"I do it to inflict emotional damage"
Check out this compilation of Zest 's pulse bombs on enemy tracers so far this season 🫢

Will philly infernal finally win something
Easy region
Before owl is dead
🥱
All 9 spots should be taken by benbest ngl
skewed over fixa lol
Nothing like a little friendly rivalry 👀
Join @itsmelimmy, @jakeow, @MER1T_ow, and @PELICAN_75 in this week's OWL Spotlight!
PELICAN
IS JUST LIKE ITS ME
current.
theyre on the illari nerf patch yes
sans is a fixa doubter
it's disgusting really
repulsive some would say
downright evil even
I'm goated because fixa is goated
interchangeable imo
the 2 best players on that team
nuh uh
ur from florida so u being goated is so much harder
fixa = skewed > zest > mn3 >>> mag
I can see fixa >= skewed >= zest
true gotta carry shitters like zest mn3 and mag @hot onyx agrees
potm check
I think fixa slightly edges out skewed
potm check
glads wins check
guys
0 wins this stage
can you believe I got attacked for my love for fixa in the r/cow server 🙁
goated
never heard of it so L server
it's basically this server except less restricted Ig
and sans still found a way
way more active owl discussion tho
bro is built diff
but hates on fixa?? so L
so true
levi i need to ask for ur forgiveness
last year I was a fixa hater too </3
but I'm reformed now
how
spark beats fuel
spark already beat fuel like 2 weeks ago
but its knockouts
and new meta
even though they beat fuel, i believe that fuel will adapt to the meta faster than spark
hanbin is such a flexible tank player
goat fr
oh wait yeah I forgot guxue is their only tank
gg too late I already predded spark 😭
rip
i did my calculations
i was unsure at first too
then im like hanbin plays zarya, dva, jq the guy is the goat
im sorry :(
as a spitfire fan i can never be a fusion fan
but they arent fusion anymore!
ive never liked fusion since season 1 stage 2
This is sans irl (a twink)
Good idea for ow
They are trying it in owwc
Ist that like only 20% percent of it tho
people wouldn't pay tho
LMAO with how people view this company
It ain’t happening
Uh that has nothing to do with owl
I’m talking about the idea for ow
If they actually made the skin look nice
Not just recolor
I miss SBB
Wasn’t it profit who had the the best tracer stats in the league(all time)?
Ya but I think been playing longer
Sbb was better but then he wrote the whole incident which prob got him bench
i would flat out kill you in a fight
The incident got him benched but also the other dps on the team were just better at the time iirc
So he barely would've played anyway
they just showed the every map
nothing confirmed
oh they wanted to show flashpoint then i get it
what
they won againts atlanta on their peak
how did reign lose bc of map order
new week came with new types of maps that atlana isn't good at
but if we think about it
they were the same types of maps?
it wasnt that bad
🤦♂️
new week NEW MAPS
it's always like that my friend
for example Colosseo wasnt in the map pool
it was in the map pool it just wasnt in that one particular match
so then what the fuck does "new week new maps" mean
its the same maps every week
lmfao
MAP ROTATION
?
??? the map pool doesnt change ???
dorado and colosseio wasnt played week 12-3
it does
cuz of map rotation changed
and vs mayhem
that was in week 2 and 3
1 sec
and colosseo was played 1 day after the atl hou game
which was week 2
and in the atl mayhem game
which was week 3
check out
the week 1 maps played
compare them with week 2
then week 3
literally every map was played every week
NO!
go a head
control:
antarctic - charge vs o2 blast w1 - boston vs florida w2 - reign vs florida w3
ilios - sfs vs glads w1 - spitfire vs valiant w2 - spark vs poker face w3
oasis - reign spitfire w1 - mayhem nyxl w2 - infernal fuel w3
lijiang - nyxl vegas w1 - reign outlaws w2 - spitfire glads w3 -
busan - mayhem outlaws w1 - dragons poker face w2 - uprising valiant w3
escort:

dorado - sfs glads w1 - reign outlaws w2 - reign mayhem w3
gibraltr - dynasty dragons w1 -
r66 - mayhem nyxl w2 - dynasty dreamers w3
no u need me to carry on ? or are u gonna admit ur wrong
week 1
was a fkn map
week 2
you done now?
i just give u 2 examples of it being in week 1 and 2
week 1
w1
w1
oh look, colosseo
teams suddenly decided to play colosseo dorado so fun
"teams" didnt decide anything
its not team decides
ur just wrong
the map pool doesnt change week to week
every map gets played every week
its okay to be wrong every now and then
im not wrong 😎
so ur just delusional
says a london fan
says "the map pool changes every week 🤓 "
also ive never been delusional about being a spitfire fun lmfao
i know they arent good
i doubt that
but considering thats what you resort to, you know youre wrong
good thing that u know ur team sucks ass
this is so stupid
sorry
just drop it lmao
😛
owl week 5
and preds?
WAIT
PICK EMS
ARE UPDATED
im in 235th place
theres a guy who got 185 points
holy fk
yeah bc he had a perfect week
2 perfect weeks
infact out of all east games this stage that guy has only dropped 4 points
holy fk
kinda sussy
but this has counted as 2 points not 3
hows that possible to
get
+3 whole week
wtf
still my week 1 is still the goat
this is my preds for week 5
i wouldve had a perfect week 3 west if i trusted myself
but i changed all my preds last minute
how many points do you have?
116
bruh
id be on 131 if i didnt change my preds
Is predding on Washington to 3-0 atlanta based
...
selling accs is bannable
Spitfire cleaning house anyway
hello where can i find ow contenders replays or vids idc all i want is tto watch some pro play
YouTube
yeah just look on the offical yt channel
real and true !!!
i legit cant imagine being a london fan
for like the past 2 years
only seeing rush
and whenever hadi hops on winston u go 0-3
vegas sucks but atleast we play meta
and dont just force rush
but London had their best tournament result since 2019 with a winston comp
LOL
big L
Houstonable
So
ppl think its a bad thing but its not
just like shock has #winnable
it's okay to say #houstonable
:))
:((
i cant imagine being a vegas fan
and winning 1 game in over 2 years
HAHAAHA
dont forget how they threw their game vs. valiant by swaping knife with dove on colosseo
2-0 to 3-2
auch
Cant blame them
They just lost their carry and are trying to adapt
what
Malthel showing reign who’s boss
XD
cope
Bro that is so true knife literally carries the team and they swapped him out I was literally screaming at my monitor over that 😂😂
He deserves a better team
dove couldn't hit shit on hanzo
the whole chat confused alongside with the casters
my guy got 30-40 elims and they swap him with dove who cannot hit emp btw
Who the hell is contender Rhodes
Who are these goofy ass contenders
Hypothetically speaking
rhodes is a chinese team
Could contenders make their way into Toronto if theh were somehow the best team in the league
And win
pinapple went to spark from rhodes
Are they good??
east contenders are very strong compared to other east owl teams such as dragons or charge HOWEVER compared to west owl teams they're mid
they're ok
