#

We're gonna be trapped with racoons and falcons until one of them disband

I was so happy in the off season when rumours were saying falcons blew up but they were false 💔

static turret
#

LOL

it was a big deal at the time LOL

static turret
#

They wanted to win

split flume
#

c9 spent

#

a lot

#

of money

#

and they only won because playoffs ended up being the perfect meta for them lmao

static turret
#

They got a ring

#

Signing Koreans is always the meta

split flume
#

this was meta in s1 playoffs LOL

static turret
#

Is that double sniper dva hog poke

#

?

split flume
#

you know it

static turret
#

I can see the vision

#

Hog and horse were broken

#

Mercy was mercy

split flume
#

i forget what got buffed or nerfed then

static turret
#

I don’t get the double sniper

split flume
#

but the meta completely flipped

#

it was moth meta the first 2 stages or smth, then hard dive after that

#

then double sniper poke in playoffs

#

stadium is the most uncompetitive shit ever

mental vine
#

how is it uncompetitive?

hybrid hollow
mental vine
#

imagine if they are going to switch to that mode LMAO

hybrid hollow
#

Switching to a unbalanced moba mode is uncompetitive and every pro would probably leave ngl

LMFAOOOO

hybrid hollow

Yeah but it's not ow

@static turret https://youtu.be/I0I5hi_NXq0?si=sEVF51zxU3yM3mlY noticing how he didn’t mention that oa not competing for a while made them shit in scrims

I caught up with NineK, Head Coach of Team Falcons, ahead of the OWCS Champions Clash in Hangzhou. We speak about his experience on the team so far, the current meta and his expectations for the tournament.

Idk anyone else on the market better then him

If the meta changes

glass sleet
#

I can’t think of any other team that he would want to go to

deft marlin
#

Realistically what are the chances Viol2t ends up in NA?

#

Feel like he’s more likely to retire than go to NA

#

@torn portal @hybrid hollow wake up Ssg interview

#

No lenny

#

But it’s Unter

#

Only slightly worse

#

Maybe ima oa believer now

#

All the coaches are saying they still got it

sullen berry
hybrid hollow
#

Stay over there bozo

static turret
#

Don’t get it twisted

#

If falcons troll and make hanbin mirror the Winston then maybe they win

hybrid hollow
#

anyways

#

oa to grands

static turret
#

Grand finals for them is 3rd place

#

Furthest they make it in playoffs usually anyways

#

Anyways Ssg aura farms and make it to finals

hybrid hollow
#

Lenny when he realizes seeker just ain't korean

#

bliss when he gets gapped in the mirror by fixa

#

Kellan when he realizes he needs to LAND the ults to get value

hybrid hollow
#

Wording implies he'll be making all non Korean lans

#

is this the start of his redemption arc?

The more I look at stuff like this, the more I realize how unfit I am for esports

usually coaches when talking about a team they have no trouble with they don’t say “well i’m not gonna say that we lose this”

static turret
#

im noticing a close 3-0

#

they said last year ssg was gonna turn up

torn portal
#

likeeee

#

we will see but this gives me even more faith

hybrid hollow
#

Hadi at lan vs Guxue at lan

#

plus that meta was ass for ssg idk why ppl thought it wasn't Hadi was always shit at mauga

static turret
#

unfortunate

#

i belive oa are the best non kr team

#

and they will finish a humble 3rd place

glass sleet

Yeah

The reaper mauga meta

#

The reaper mauga echo meta?

hybrid hollow
#

yes yk what stockholm was

glass sleet
#

The reaper mauga echo brig meta?

#

The reaper mauga echo brig Juno meta???

hybrid hollow
#

Yes

glass sleet
#

I just have to make sure cuz you said it’s not SSG’s meta

hybrid hollow
#

It wasn't

#

Hadi was shit at mauga now that it's over I don't have to cope

#

They sucked ass at Juno brig

#

the dps line is fine ig

glass sleet
#

Backbone was playing reaper a couple weeks before he became hard meta, seicoe is the best eu echo, and hadi is the “mauga guy” in eu

hybrid hollow
#

But realistically

#

They were destined to be ass

glass sleet
hybrid hollow
#

He played like shit ik

glass sleet
#

Ssg themselves said this was the perfect meta for them

hybrid hollow
#

but on paper the dps line were the non weak point going into it

glass sleet
#

But I agree. I think they’re shit

#

Maybe if they had an actual tank that was known for his mauga

#

Oh wait

hybrid hollow
#

Like I get why at first but when you really think about the comp and prior results on those heros

#

Why did ppl think Hadi would perform on mauga

#

He never does

#

even I was coping for him idk why

#

Ksaa should've been in every map

glass sleet
#

I’ve been saying he’s not good on mauga since the start but everyone always says he’s top mauga in eu

glass sleet
#

I agree, KSAA should’ve been in all maps. He’s the fucking mauga player

hybrid hollow
#

I had to hit the copium

glass sleet
#

I guess I get that ngl

#

This conversation reminding me that KSAA never played in a single lan last year

#

Sad

wet bay
#

He makes the least difference in that comp

#

They probably just had Hadi in because he was the team leader and played with that core for a long time, even if KSAA is better at Mauga individually

hybrid hollow
#

it's mainly backbones fault and Astro Landon just not being good at Juno brig

wet bay
hybrid hollow
#

You either have Landon on brig or Astro on brig it's the biggest setup of all time

wet bay
#

Prob would've been better with Landon on Juno but they wanted him to swap to Bap sometimes

#

Also having no Sparkr in usually just means they're gonna lose

hybrid hollow
#

The real tragedy is chris I fear

wet bay
#

They should've just put him in regardless of the meta

hybrid hollow
#

Spun back with a better roster and still couldn't get it done

wet bay
hybrid hollow

#

He's just on an ultra slingshot. Fumble Stockholm and miss China LAN so he can win it all in Saudi

hybrid hollow
#

trueee

#

All about the money

wet bay
#

Half their team gone

hybrid hollow
#

Plus m80 existing

#

Most memorable moment from Dallas is the NRG shock reveal

wet bay
#

It's actually insane that the west got 3 teams each

#

I barely remember that lan other than SSG 3rd

#

How did Toronto flop so hard

hybrid hollow
#

Honestly China should only have 1

hybrid hollow
wet bay
hybrid hollow
#

The one thing I do remember is someone on coleseo

#

He's just so ass on mauga I don't get it

wet bay
#

I remember SSG mirroring Falcons on dive lol

hybrid hollow
#

a year later and poor chase is still trapped

#

Surely he'll make a lan before his career is fully cooked

wet bay
hybrid hollow
#

Falcons need him so bad rn too

#

Top 3 Winston is nowhere to be found in Winston meta bc he was chasing the money too hard

wet bay
#

Idk who to root for in this lan

hybrid hollow
#

It's obvious

🎙️ Following the official announcement of his contract termination with ZETA Division, Viol2t shared the following on his personal stream.
︀︀
︀︀🗣️ "The happiest time in my pro career was during my 2019 days with the SF Shock," he recalled. "It was my first shot at the OWL, and with great results, it left me with nothing but good memories. But I think I’ll miss 2024 and 2025 the most — playing offline matches in OWCS Korea and meeting so many fans. I don’t think I’ll get that kind of experience again."
︀︀
︀︀With this, many speculate that Viol2t's next chapter will unfold outside of Korea, potentially influenced by South Korea's mandatory military service. ✈️
︀︀
︀︀During the same stream, Viol2t answered a series of casual yet insightful questions from fans, offering a rare glimpse into his personality and journey:

They did it once they can do it twice

#

THE HANGZHOU SPARK

#

or oa ig

wet bay
#

I'll root for them against the Korea teams sure but can't abandon the West

#

Alq gonna fuck up Falcons trust

hybrid hollow
#

The west can't handle the femboy squad

#

I fear after the unter interview my preds are even better

wet bay
#

I mean if anyone can beat the Korean teams it'll be them

#

It's either gonna go

#

Lose to West

#

Or beat Korean team and destroy West

hybrid hollow
#

Streets saying falcons are forcing Winston as well

#

It's just looking for the goats

wet bay
hybrid hollow
#

Also shy is actually cheating I was watching back China finals and that shit ain't human

wet bay
#

Ideal lan would be like

hybrid hollow
wet bay
#

Mix of Winston, Haz

#

For me

#

Which is probably what it will be

#

And Dva I'm guessing will get play

hybrid hollow
#

Ngl I'm putting money on orisa stocks

wet bay
#

Hopefully we see some dumbass unexpected strats tho.. that's the worst thing about losing London

hybrid hollow
#

we will see at least one orisa

wet bay
#

There was always a chance they run it down on Rein all of a sudden

wet bay
#

Other than perks

hybrid hollow
#

No idea but peppi and vestola ran the mirror so it's possible

wet bay
#

But hers are worse than others and Juno is worse so idk how she would get much play

#

Maybe very brawly maps but isn't Ram just better

#

Either way as long as we get some diversity idm

#

I'm surprised JQ has gotten basically no play time tbh

hybrid hollow
#

VP aq and ntmr can play other things

#

Hopefully we don't force the cuffa Winston

wet bay
#

Now Mauga is gone I expect mostly Dva from EU

#

Maybe Orisa

hybrid hollow
#

and hopefully junbin gives us the ball fan service

wet bay
#

Winston, Haz, DVA, Ram, Orisa,

#

And ball yea

hybrid hollow
#

Oh yeah hazard exist

wet bay
#

Hazard is my favourite

hybrid hollow
#

I assume if Winston gets banned against oa Guxue goes hazard

wet bay
#

Winston too ofc

#

It was funny how watching EU

#

Week 1 everyone plays Hazard only

#

And then they all realise they ass at him and just swap to Dva

hybrid hollow
#

I wish Infekted was good at hazard 💔

#

I wish liquid was good 🥀

cosmic socket
#

such a stacked roster just for them to not even make lan

#

its gotta be a comms issue

static turret
#

They just played bad

#

While everyone played better

hybrid hollow
#

Rupal had someone next to him his whole tier 1 career

static turret
#

Idk comms tho bc they have Rupal and infekted who were 2 of the main shot callers on their respective teams

#

Or side callers

hybrid hollow
#

Infekted vs someone

static turret
#

Truth

#

Someone comms>>>>>

#

Apparently he carried lenny in the comms to

#

Which I believe

hybrid hollow
#

ofc he did

static turret
#

Someone was the reason lenny was able to shine

#

And another reason why he didn’t look as op this year

#

He has plan

hybrid hollow
#

The last time Lenny played with a Korean was heesang and he knew 0 English on that roster

static turret
#

Kellan

#

Lowkey

#

Bring back someone and merit to na

hybrid hollow
#

I fear that's not happening

#

Maybe merit

static turret
#

Or bring lenny to Korea

hybrid hollow
#

Someone 100% goes to falcons

#

Or zeta actually

static turret
#

Nah

hybrid hollow
#

ngl zeta might do a small rebuild

static turret
#

Definitely not zeta especially without a good ms

#

Zeta needs to find a strong ms

#

I guess lsm

hybrid hollow
#

they pick up opener not that hes good but

static turret
#

Lsm

#

Do NOT pick up opener

hybrid hollow
static turret
#

Isn’t way gone

hybrid hollow
#

They might get an org before next stage as well

hybrid hollow
static turret
#

They coudknt find a partner

hybrid hollow
#

Did they disband bc of tht?

static turret
#

Uhh they were posting lft

#

All of them

#

I think soop was there last run

hybrid hollow
#

Oh

#

Wait yeah get leesoomin

static turret
#

Ade is a good hs

#

Idk where he goes tho

Maybe na or eu

hybrid hollow

Viol2t is never playing in Korea again I fear

He was on pge stream at Stockholm

Fielder hasn’t posted a tweet since 2020

His liqupedia page is so behind his twitch on their is banned

Why is fielder banned on twitch 😭

static turret

“Obviously haven’t competed in such a long time, where do you think china ranks? Closer to korea or emea/na?”

Unter: “I think way closer to korea by far”

👀

static turret
#

3-0

#

3-1 bc hanbin tried to mirror

torn portal
#

i thought u didn’t like falcons

static turret
#

i dont

torn portal
#

this i agree with

static turret
#

3-0

#

3-1 if hanbin tries to ego

torn portal
#

he will

static turret
#

They still have a solid chance to win

#

Due to it being a gap on the other 4 roles

#

Unless Guxue can kill 2 with every primal each fight then they lowk lose

#

He can do that tho

It won’t go long

Everyone is tbf

#

I get it

It’s OA

#

Me personally i believe in the finn theory

torn portal
#

Maybe rush will be the prophet

static turret
#

That one day he will become good

#

And zeta will make pan

#

Lan

torn portal
#

oa have it

#

they can’t just lose it

mortal cipher
#

well i think a lot assume OA will do awful and also they are going to Hangzhou

static turret
#

I don’t think they will do awful

#

They’re heavily favored top 3

#

But I just don’t see them punching up to top 2 yet

mortal cipher
#

ive seen more assume they will be mid and not make top 3 or 4

static turret
#

Closer to Koreans yea but at the same time the gap between west and kr is like

#

Ultra massive

torn portal
#

i thought top 4-3 is it, but after the two commanderx interviews with ninek and unter

#

i actually have even more to glaze off

mortal cipher
#

in every esports its always Korea - China and everyone else usually

mortal cipher
static turret
#

I think OA if they can beat vp comfortably they are t1 level

#

Which isn’t bad

torn portal
#

i’m just so excited

#

a lan isn’t the same without those guys

static turret
#

Im excited for the day zeta make lan

mortal cipher
#

i do think people just brush off OA and TCC because China hasnt done anything or hasnt been seen since EWC and China hasnt been a region since 2023 or OWWC

static turret
#

Which is never

torn portal
#

they won’t

static turret
#

Zeta believer till I die

#

They’ll make ewc

that Vp T1 game was a revenge from last year from half the core losing to Vp at the EWC

static turret
#

Stalker was half the player he now

#

I don’t believe that oa have leveled up the way falcons have just due to them not having enough comp

mortal cipher
#

maybe they have you never know

static turret
#

True

mortal cipher

until the game starts

static turret

I could be wrong

Is this why kr really never lose

Bc there’s no big lan in their country

Ok but

if falcons hard commit to the winston ball larp they will be upset by a team like oa who just have more clutch in that mirror

#

Wait is tred on aq

glass sleet

Tred was good on orisa and mauga. That’s all I remember him playing well as. He was terrible as hazard

hybrid hollow

They had one of the eu Winston guys

Who is aq coach again?

QAD’s roster is ziyad, tred, checkmate, lbbd7, Landon, and haku.

glass sleet

Ah ok

#

He's not stupid enough to play tred

glass sleet

Junkbuck been coaching them really nicely. Weird sentence to say. They started rough but you could see they’re getting better with every game

they got a huge boost from mauga meta and the hero is obsolete now

I mean they're cooked no matter what

rugged quest
hybrid hollow
#

they get knocked out right after cc

rugged quest
#

its not a ziyad vs tred question

#

its how well ziyad can adjust to the changed tank meta

hybrid hollow
#

Idk unter said the off tank shit is playable and ziyad loves the dva

#

But they probably still get 7th-8th

glass sleet
#

What’s the meta actually

glass sleet
hybrid hollow
glass sleet
#

Cmon

rugged quest
#

like a bunch of stuff works

glass sleet
#

They have the World Cup champion haku and the owl champion checkmate

rugged quest
#

but mauga was wiped off the planet

glass sleet
#

And a pharah one trick

glass sleet
hybrid hollow
#

I think aq is just weak compared to other teams even if they can force dva and play it well

rugged quest
#

Yes winston is really good

hybrid hollow
rugged quest
#

dps and supp meta is very similar as before

hybrid hollow
#

And falcons are smoking forcing the hanbinston

glass sleet
#

Cmon. If Crazy raccoon don’t win this I’m gonna call them frauds. Devs buffed ball and nuked mauga so CR can win this. I’ll be very disappointed if they don’t get first

so a lot of dive stuff

Is there still room for Once Again to get a partnered slot?

Nothing is stopping them from adding new slots next year

I would imagine blizzard would want all orgs that are partnered to make LAN, I don’t see Zeta making LAN ever

#

Unless once Lip retires if CR can’t find anyone

rugged quest
# rugged quest Its half true

they add ilios because it differs from other control maps thus more comp variety, but the korea favoritism narrative is just jokes

hybrid hollow

Like ik netease and give them a few dollars

The ldg stuff was ewc only
