Checkmate fuked them so hard this series

[quasi summit]

the double melee was crazy

[weary scarab]

ziyad diffs everyone on diva too. and hes only 17

[quasi summit]

hes crazy good on tracer

[pure bramble]

lbbd domination

[stray quarry]

got cocky then fucked up royally and mental boomed

#typical

[robust patio]

youbi becomes weak when he cant play symm

[torn gale]

hes 17???? Thats actually insane

[split flume]

man

im so fuckin happy

[pallid pebble]

So is junbin

[torn gale]

tm got tilted at the end idk what happened

[quasi summit]

true

[split flume]

im so glad that bum lost

[torn gale]

oh damn

[pure bramble]

me too

[pallid pebble]

Nvm im just making shit up

He was 17 2 years ago tho

Lol

[torn gale]

lmao

[split flume]

yeah he's turning 18 this year

born 2007

[mortal cipher]

Youbi is about to dock everyone’s pay

[glass sleet]

It’s fair because it’s a different series. It’s 5 games between two teams and qad picked their map and their ban first. I think if you don’t win your map after all these advantages, you don’t get to pick again after being heavily favored in this. But whatever.

[quasi summit]

ziyad is a good tank

[pure bramble]

EMEA have a real chance at beating Korea now I think

[pallid pebble]

Tr33 is young

He just turned 18

[torn gale]

im rooting for him

[split flume]

most of liquid is young

tr33 zeruhh and infekted all 2007

[mortal cipher]

Yeah

[pallid pebble]

He would have been t1 so long ago too but he was stuck in contenders hell

For being under 18

[humble token]

T1 3-0 falcons

[mortal cipher]

Imagine t1 just go golden without dropping a map

[wide carbon]

idk about 3-0

[glass sleet]

Lbdd7 left tm and is winning more. Hmmmm

[robust patio]

its just advantages for better seed

[wise orbit]

if t1 make it to the grand final and just spam ball they will win

[humble token]

Ball is buested

[wet bay]

TM had their better hitscan one tricking Pharah

[humble token]

If ur donghak

[mortal cipher]

Donghak ball is nasty

[wise orbit]

if I see donghak on winston in the grand final im crashing out

[glass sleet]

I understand what you’re saying but I think it’s semi finals and at that point seeds shouldn’t matter in a map 6

[wet bay]

Doomhak in finals

[robust patio]

well yeah but they learned from owl brackets

[mortal cipher]

Donghak don’t have to worry about tank bans

[robust patio]

higher seed = advantages given

[wise orbit]

might unironically be better than winston rn LOL

[robust patio]

if tm beat sign then

[glass sleet]

Last map was extremely free for lbbd7 cuz he didn’t have a dva to stop him. Poor Quartz had all his shots eaten

[robust patio]

giving a pick would be fair

but tm lost

first round

[wet bay]

Yea I'd like to see it tbh

[glass sleet]

Those are wrong. Time for a change.

[wet bay]

Lbbd7 has shown he's better this whole year

[weary scarab]

Al qadsiah is 14:0 rn

[stray quarry]

many such cases

[wise orbit]

the doom is good into sym comps i think as well so it's possible

[pure bramble]

they shoulda saved their Dva ban then

[stray quarry]

ahem ATLANTA REIGN ahem WHO SAID THAT

[glass sleet]

I don’t think. Of course you’ll look better being on the better team but individually performance Quartz is always popping off

[sullen berry]

7 years since Boston Uprising in OWL
LBBD7

Oh SHIT

[wet bay]

For stage 2 + ewc?

[weary scarab]

yea

[split flume]

best case scenario: t1 beat falcons in a 5 map banger then t1 beat aq with ball and doomfist and donghak cements himself as the goat of all goats best tank to ever do it

[glass sleet]

No, I think KSAA just goes dva. Suddenly he doesn’t know dva huh

[stray quarry]

cause donghak has never thrown an important match with a superstar team before

obviously

[wise orbit]

ziyad is just next level on that hero

[rustic oak]

#texashard

[glass sleet]

It was so painfully obvious last map was a tank diff

[mortal cipher]

That was rookie Donghak when he had Chiyo the bully

[stray quarry]

#chiyowasright

[glass sleet]

He’s not 1v1ing ziyad, mate. He just needs to stop making the game so free for lbbd7

[mortal cipher]

No

[dim egret]

I’m late but map 6 was crazy okg

[stray quarry]

#freechiyo

[robust patio]

donghak getting his revenge

[wet bay]

Landon gonna have a Shu Havana moment to win the grand finals trust

[mortal cipher]

Stuff Chiyo in a locker

[stray quarry]

didn’t the person who leaked those apologize later for false leaks

or was that part real

[split flume]

id lwk be okay with that

[wise orbit]

I can see that but like, why take the mirror comp if you're just worse at it

[mortal cipher]

It was real

[stray quarry]

#CHIYOWASRIGHT

[robust patio]

guxue donghak

[stray quarry]

andddd it’s everywhere

[mortal cipher]

I think it was Gator who said Donghak was legit getting bullied

[stray quarry]

not donghak the twink next to him

[mortal cipher]

T1 and Lpl

[stray quarry]

probably true then

[dim egret]

I said the same thing about geekay yesterday but if T1 doesn’t win I am going to kill myself

[robust patio]

lip also confirmed on twitch

[mortal cipher]

Yeah

[glass sleet]

KSAA going from one of the best dva in eu to “nah he can’t compete with ziyad” the gap can’t be that big. Obviously ram wasn’t working at all last map. He kept getting fucked. Go dva and try that instead of giving points away for free

[mental vine]

lol we need t1 to be in grand finals then if kellex is scared

[mortal cipher]

Was lip
Bullying him ???

[robust patio]

nah

[stray quarry]

what did chiyo do to bro he gave him generational trauma 😭 😭

[robust patio]

only chiyo

[wise orbit]

fair

[mortal cipher]

Didn’t think so

[robust patio]

but lip knew

[mortal cipher]

Makes sense

[glass sleet]

Upsetting way to lose ngl

Sad. My two teams left are against each other

Fuk qad

[mortal cipher]

I mean Donghak was only 17 at the time getting bullied by people older than you

[robust patio]

their comms work with checkmate

damn

[torn gale]

fucking dumbass he kept playing the worst ram i’ve ever seen

[robust patio]

yea

sad stuff

[stray quarry]

revenge match happening NOW

[wet bay]

Imagine getting picked up to a superteam and getting bullied by the guy who just won grand finals

[mortal cipher]

Unfortunately common in apac and with the respect thing you feel you can’t say anything to seniors

[stray quarry]

real talk though I felt terrible when donghak got roty after the reign got knocked out

holding back tears

[mortal cipher]

Ikr and because he’s your senior you feel you can’t say anything

[stray quarry]

Maybe we should Kill Chiyo

[wet bay]

I wish we saw more hawk that year

[stray quarry]

@robust patio jump him

Hawk had like

2 appearances

[wide carbon]

youbi is so lucky he has me blocked on twitter

[mortal cipher]

Hawk looked good when they subbed him unfortunately it was last map

[errant hornet]

Tbh wish it was more of a double elimination thing

[stray quarry]

was the thing about the team not liking hawk true too

[wet bay]

Hawk looked good the map against London and the team just gave up by that point. Can't remember many others but apparently they didn't want him to play because he wasn't Korean lol

[mortal cipher]

Yeah I think it’s not the first time it happened

[stray quarry]

the pecking order

[errant hornet]

Like idk it feels weird to say “cr is out” after one game, or falcons, or tm

Etc

[robust patio]

yea its so stupid

[stray quarry]

veterans > rookies > non koreans

[wide carbon]

does sirmajed play for falcons still

[robust patio]

thats why i hate single elimination but some ppl love it

[errant hornet]

It would be nicer imo to see some of these teams, even ones like TL that were never going to win, play again against eachother to sort of solidify standing a bit

[robust patio]

no

[wide carbon]

aw

[glass sleet]

Surely TM can snatch checkmate. They have the money.

[stray quarry]

where’s that one image of alphayi praying with the caption “GOD KILL THAT FRENCH DEMON” when his tank got subbed in

[robust patio]

youbi should just retire

and join yzn on mrivals

[glass sleet]

He can’t. They don’t have a sym.

[stray quarry]

did sirmajed get moved over to content creation for the falcons

[glass sleet]

Yes

[mortal cipher]

Like I like the respect thing but bullying is unfortunately a side affect

[weary scarab]

yzns was actually talanted tho. youbi aint got that same talent. only brain

[robust patio]

yuh it gets worse sometimes

[glass sleet]

Brain is talent but I’d say yznsa isn’t that good

I said it

I’m a TM fan but he’s not him

[stray quarry]

dawg you have a goated illari and you sit him on the bench for MONTHS while the korean super team you bought wipes the board

[weary scarab]

https://tenor.com/view/look-stare-face-mean-bruh-gif-27645430

[robust patio]

thank you

[mortal cipher]

Yeah bullying is bad in Korea I do respect the kdramas that actually shed light on the insane bullying

[stray quarry]

can yznsa play another hero

besides the obvious

[weary scarab]

only echo pharah and the saudi mei sym

[robust patio]

yzn maybe good in emea or ladder lvl but he aint shit against pro

[glass sleet]

He doesn’t speak Korean. I’m positive he would’ve played way more if he spoke Korean. Especially when they played so much bap. Junkbuck thinks he has a better bap.

[weary scarab]

he smurfed in eu contenders

[stray quarry]

nth room, burning sun, etc

[weary scarab]

and world cup qualifiers

[robust patio]

its eu

[robust patio]

thats also eu

[mortal cipher]

Nth room I reacted to it made me sick

[weary scarab]

yes but peak eu

[glass sleet]

He’s a pharah one trick who can’t play pharah without a mercy pocket. He’s not good

He only played in t2 too

[stray quarry]

That bbc documentary was hard to sit through bro

[robust patio]

basically peak eu is when meta being fvaored to eu

[stray quarry]

had to take a few breaks

[robust patio]

eu was never peak

[mortal cipher]

I just reacted to rotten mango’s two docs on it

[glass sleet]

Bunch of T3 and t2 teams so yeah? He had top tier team against them

And him

[humble token]

Donghak

[glass sleet]

I’m sorry but what is this glaze for a t2 player?

[humble token]

Is getting revenge against chiyo

[weary scarab]

vs finland

[stray quarry]

yznsa’s cooked anyways

run to rivals lil bro

[sullen berry]

i can't believe i had to pause my uma musume concert for this chiyo interview

[stray quarry]

CURREN CHAN

[robust patio]

he never won a trophy too

[stray quarry]

kenobi.. knows peak..

[errant hornet]

It’s faster ig but eh it feels unsatisfying to me. Especially in a meta like this where regional differences aren’t as insane, it woulda been fun to see like CR play again with the ball comps or geekay try and bounce back, etc

[sullen berry]

this was pulled on my third acc

[stray quarry]

200 pulls on kitasan banner NO KITASAN

I HAD TO PITY

stupid game

[glass sleet]

With mickj masaa and clowd? T2 players. And KSA still almost lost. And before you say Finland beat korea, yznsa didn’t play. I promise you if he was playing during OWWC, KSA would’ve lost in group stage.

[weary scarab]

im biased to these players cuz i started watching overwatch again during 2023 eu contenders

[weary scarab]

top 3 world cup

[sullen berry]

for the love of pity please make sure no one convinces you to buy for pulls

[stray quarry]

Too late.

[robust patio]

if only they didnt change the meta and continue the asia owcs right away

[sullen berry]

like i can't do microtransactions in a game that gives you so many on launch

[glass sleet]

Lol I literally told you not to use that logic cuz he wasn’t around for the sigma meta

[silent pike]

What happened in the first semi final? Twisted minds win??

[glass sleet]

Unbelievable you’re not reading

[errant hornet]

Lmfao Idrc about the meta change in of itself just the format sucks for playoffs

[robust patio]

no

[glass sleet]

Tm drooling last map and lost

[silent pike]

What the fuck nooo my team

[sullen berry]

it just ended

rip twisted

[stray quarry]

luckily I already saved so I had to buy only one ten pull to get my 200 pulls a few hours before the banner ended

[robust patio]

4-3

[stray quarry]

13 dollars for a Lesson

[glass sleet]

Guys

[errant hornet]

Tbf if EU don’t win this tourney they aren’t winning ever

Cause like

[glass sleet]

Someone please teach Quartz Korean so he can replace lip when he retires

[errant hornet]

This has to be the most EU meta to ever E.U.

[glass sleet]

Get him out of tm

[sullen berry]

[robust patio]

they havent won anything since 2023

[robust patio]

exactly

omg the crowds booing

[stray quarry]

Hello T1

[glass sleet]

Hello hello

[robust patio]

quartz in cr would be fire

[errant hornet]

Well yeah it’s the meta lol

[glass sleet]

TM genuinely don’t deserve him.

[sullen berry]

without any cash spent (yet) you can go mobile twice (i have a separate ios/android), steam and google play games beta

[weary scarab]

i meant the other one

[mental vine]

Quartz in cr makes cr unstoppable tbh

[weary scarab]

the language barrier tho

[errant hornet]

I mean not like they need him rn lol

[stray quarry]

if they win the whole thing somehow they are getting jumped en route to the airport

[sullen berry]

I'm not going to get sleep am i @stray quarry

[glass sleet]

Lip retires this year.

[mental vine]

Who know? They might

[sullen berry]

[errant hornet]

Lip is still good for it and no need to disrupt language barrier

[robust patio]

im curious who moon and pavane would cast when lip joins army next year

[errant hornet]

Oh yeah retire

[weary scarab]

bigger chance of quartz going to falcons tbh

[errant hornet]

Idk who they get next then

[mental vine]

Quartz XD

[stray quarry]

I downloaded the game on my friends phone and he pulled 2 kitasan in 60 pulls I was so incensed

[stray quarry]

No

[robust patio]

he mentioned ade but idk

[glass sleet]

Nope. Unless falcons get rid of someone and merit. Which falcons don’t wanna drop someone.

[robust patio]

nah

[errant hornet]

Ade could be alr ig

[stray quarry]

U are cooked

[humble token]

Comon donghak

[glass sleet]

Merit on top teams cuz of someone

[stray quarry]

blonde is not your color my son

[errant hornet]

Hear me out: infekted swaps to dps and picked up by CR

Could be tech

[glass sleet]

Merit isn’t even top3 hs

[weary scarab]

why would cr pick up quartz when they can pick up a korean hs and theres no language barrier

[wet bay]

How would it lol

[errant hornet]

This as well

[glass sleet]

Because Quartz is better than them

[wet bay]

Lip is the goat, more flexible and consistent

[robust patio]

tbh junbin lip shu chorong can speak english from owl

[split flume]

MY LIFE SAVINGS ON DONGHAK

[errant hornet]

I mean it’s so hard to replace lip

Hero pool alone

[glass sleet]

Also

[humble token]

There team cant speak english

[glass sleet]

HS don’t need much talking

[stray quarry]

I’d value team synergy over an arguably better hs though

[glass sleet]

Yes they can

[robust patio]

they learned from owl

[stray quarry]

we seen what happens when one guy gets isolated

on a team

think macro

[robust patio]

lip is fluent too

[stray quarry]

think mental

[wet bay]

Stalk3r maybe if he doesn't want to keep sharing time

[humble token]

Oh wait actually

[robust patio]

atlanta reign dps duk

duo

[weary scarab]

do they teach english mandetory in korea?

[humble token]

Ye they can

[errant hornet]

Yeah but I get a lil worried on some hard hitscan heroes? Stalker would be great but

[humble token]

Or should be able to

[glass sleet]

Stalker doesn’t wanna play HS. So I doubt he’ll join a team knowing it’s for HS role

[robust patio]

busan

[humble token]

Does crazy raccon have good pay?

[robust patio]

im currently in korea busan

[errant hornet]

Like idk if you would take stalker

[glass sleet]

Almost everywhere teach English but they don’t learn

[weary scarab]

finaly another map then lijang

[humble token]

Compare to tm

[glass sleet]

You missed out on busan yesterday

[robust patio]

yes

[glass sleet]

Someone ball

😭

[errant hornet]

Yeah but having mandatory classes versus learning the language is diff

[glass sleet]

Yeah

[errant hornet]

You usually have to rly want to learn the language to retain it

[stray quarry]

mandatory

[glass sleet]

Yeah

[robust patio]

like i said they learned from owl teams

[glass sleet]

South Korea and Japan have mandatory English in school but most can’t speak English

[robust patio]

san francisco shock

atlanta reign

etc

florida mayhem

[wet bay]

He's looked great every time he plays it. But just depends if he would want to. And he's prob the most flexible player there is so any team would be crazy not to want him. Other than him the only options I can see is Proud if he doesn't mind leaving T1 or someone like Ade/Prophet, idk

[humble token]

Ye i heard that issue in japan

Almost like there schools are useless

[stray quarry]

rascal could cuss pretty fluently in english after the sf shock. guess he had the passion for it LOL

[weary scarab]

its crazy that sweden has a higher level of english then usa lol

[humble token]

🙂

[glass sleet]

Yeah but he doesn’t want to HS so that’s a big deal. And Quartz is better than ade and prophet ngl

[wet bay]

Japanese has so many English imported words anyways that they can understand quite a bit without learning

[stray quarry]

in vietnam the english standard is pretty good

[glass sleet]

CR only have the option of getting Quartz

[robust patio]

fun fact t1 first time on global lan

[glass sleet]

Obviously

[stray quarry]

tourist based areas anyways

[glass sleet]

Wouldn’t say useless.

[errant hornet]

Yeah but that’s a lot of tourist areas

[stray quarry]

they develop accents too I got whiplash hearing an Aussie accent from a viet girl

[errant hornet]

LMFAO

[stray quarry]

whole country tourist LOL

[errant hornet]

Out of every accent

[robust patio]

queen donghak

[stray quarry]

[errant hornet]

Like I’d expect American mb British

[stray quarry]

saigon

[glass sleet]

He plays mauga here

For this point

[robust patio]

mauga

[errant hornet]

Like prob idk east coast not southern

A viet southern accent would be so tuff

[robust patio]

proud freja

[glass sleet]

He lost this point to TL on mauga

[wet bay]

Quartz has been better so far yeah, but depends on if he wants to go there or not and communication/what the team wants. Proud is probably the best pickup but maybe he wants to stick with T1. We will see I guess

[pure bramble]

ooh idk who I want to win

[stray quarry]

who has the highest chance of winning finals

[errant hornet]

On one hand the west winning a tourney isn’t bad

On the other hand

[stray quarry]

and vote for the person who doesnt

[robust patio]

proud best freja rn

[errant hornet]

E.U. losing is so funny

[glass sleet]

Yeah Quartz wouldn’t wanna go. He rejected mayhem offer cuz he thought it was such a hassle to move to USA and the pay wasn’t that much more

[stray quarry]

underdog perspective

[sullen berry]

there's so many posts on x that are memeing and pulling so good, but since I religiously use it for tracking OWCS movements i don't want my feed to be covered in uma slop

[glass sleet]

Imagine, quartz would’ve had a ring

An owl ring

[errant hornet]

Third factor: being a tank player and donghak existing

Eternal glaze

So sadly go T1

Fuck you eu

[stray quarry]

“uma slop” and it’s just malevolent nature builds 💔 💔 💔

[glass sleet]

Donghak on mauga? Another reason why I cheer for T1

[wet bay]

Money over passion

[errant hornet]

We out here playing based heroes

[stray quarry]

seriously ive seen so many debuffer grass wonders + nice natures being prepared

[robust patio]

merit NICE

[glass sleet]

I think he has insane passion with how he’s been constantly performing at his level with his team

[stray quarry]

they should have a sound dampering room

i saw they said before they aint playing him or something

[glass sleet]

Only logic

[robust patio]

sparkle coaching so its on him

[wise orbit]

ig they just play better with someone

[glass sleet]

Yeah I remember they said proper and hanbin will be benched

[wise orbit]

idk if there's much more to it

[glass sleet]

Wtf does nineK do

[glass sleet]

They don’t look like it

[robust patio]

uhhh domt know

[wise orbit]

they won the map

[robust patio]

sparkle got head coach rn

[glass sleet]

Bro

[wise orbit]

and have done pretty well so far

[glass sleet]

This is the perfect meta for hanbin

The disrespect

Hanbin would’ve won circuit yesterday on zarya

[robust patio]

hell be subbed in later idk

[glass sleet]

Also who the fuk is that?

[split flume]

it would be absolutely diabolical if falcons won the whole thing

[glass sleet]

Hanbin would 3-0 anything that moves

Oh I know

[robust patio]

levi

[supple plover]

big dawg hanbin in now

[split flume]

HANBIN IN

[glass sleet]

Hanbin must’ve refused to play cuz my boy stalker ain’t playing

[glass sleet]

Who’s that…?

[robust patio]

team manager

of falc

[glass sleet]

Oh

[pure bramble]

aaaand he’s playing

[glass sleet]

I forgive falcons

I’m happy now

[pure bramble]

Someone also goated

[glass sleet]

Even if he loses

Fuk someone

[pure bramble]

put some respect on the man

[robust patio]

hanbin in

pog

[weary scarab]

finally

[glass sleet]

Been a hater since mayhem

MY GOAT HANBIN

[mental vine]

HANBIN LEGEND?

[glass sleet]

last time he played was one map during LCQ

[weary scarab]

i hope hes not in against al qad pls

[mental vine]

OK THE BIG BOSS TANK HAS FINALLY ARRIVED

[robust patio]

what map

royal

nice

[glass sleet]

Falcons better not fail hanbin

[pure bramble]

it would be really funny if they lose this map

[robust patio]

hanbin dva

better dva than ziyad

[glass sleet]

Mate gimme anything hanbin

[sullen berry]

ROSTER UPDATE

Team Falcons have subbed out SOMEONE for Hanbin

[glass sleet]

I’ll take hanbin ball

[glass sleet]

Finally

[mental vine]

we saw that already lol

[robust patio]

no way

[glass sleet]

Someone should’ve been benched this tournament

[wise orbit]

rly???

[pure bramble]

cap

[glass sleet]

He’s only been playing heroes hanbin is goated on

[pure bramble]

building synergy with his new team will be worth it in the long run

[errant hornet]

#kneecap zest

[glass sleet]

That’s disrespect towards my goat hanbin

[glass sleet]

Fuk that

[errant hornet]

Tbh someone is fine lmfao

[pure bramble]

unless you want more Hanbinston

[glass sleet]

My goats donghak and hanbin

[errant hornet]

I don’t see the point of putting in hanbin tbh

On the ram maps

[glass sleet]

100% win percentage against CR. Gimme more

[glass sleet]

He has won more maps on monkey than someone has…

That’s a fun fact for ya

[pure bramble]

wow during the meta where Winston gets kneecapped

[errant hornet]

Ok and we think therefore hanbin is a better Winston?

And like that was both early on when proper was acting like he was 12

[wise orbit]

stop hanbinston propaganda

[glass sleet]

Because he’s the best ram? He beat CR multiple times playing ram? Hello?

[pure bramble]

on a completely different roster after not playing for a stage

[wise orbit]

he only won those gib maps because of a massive dps gap

[pure bramble]

Proper and Stalker carried tf outta those maps

[glass sleet]

Not an excuse. Not winning against poker face is sad

[errant hornet]

Someone is away better pick in the long run to have on that hero pool

And it’s ram

[wise orbit]

yep

hanbin got like 1 good primal and people go crazy

[glass sleet]

He’s been winning more and against the best dive team so yes

[robust patio]

start the game already

[pure bramble]

literally would’ve been out of it if they were constantly clutching up

[errant hornet]

Like tbh ram as an individual hero isn’t THAT hard or that big of a gap generally

[errant hornet]

One it’s not a dive meta so idgaf

[pure bramble]

he played passive Winston all game

[glass sleet]

Until I see him lose on monkey, gimme more.

[robust patio]

the legend

fleta

coaching

[errant hornet]

And two id take someone on ram to develop main tank hero pool on a hero that barely matters for who is on it

[robust patio]

[glass sleet]

So since it’s a dive meta, don’t you think he should be losing to CR than? Not WIN? You’re only proving me right even more that he’s the goat

[weary scarab]

why did they have to start playing hanbin just before the grand finals......

[errant hornet]

And that map was nothing close to tank gap as much as it was dps gap

[wise orbit]

was that a teemo hat

[glass sleet]

So far he has only played heroes hanbin plays

[sullen berry]

SP9RK1E vs Fleta as coaches facing off is the craziest timeline to imagine during OWL

[glass sleet]

Their secret weapon

[robust patio]

fr 🤣

[pure bramble]

dam so he’s gapping Hanbin on his own heroes?

[glass sleet]

He’s not

[errant hornet]

Yeah but he has more play with mer1t and looks just as good as hanbin did on ram

[pure bramble]

mm he’s winning

[errant hornet]

Dva less so but you aren’t playing Dva 24/7

[glass sleet]

Someone is only playing cuz merit refuses to give hanbin more time

[wise orbit]

so like what's the theory here why does t1 go circuit

why not go gib and ban ana or something

[glass sleet]

Donghak

[wise orbit]

or winston

[errant hornet]

Yeah but the team looks better rn than they have for the past couple months forcing hanbin as much as they did

[glass sleet]

Clearly none of the Korean teams scrimmed gib

[errant hornet]

Hanbin is good but I’d rather have a more developed someone getting play with mer1t

[robust patio]

insane suzu

holy

[errant hornet]

It’s also a team thing

Like stalker doesn’t want to hs for god knows why

[glass sleet]

Hanbin showing someone how to play zarya

[errant hornet]

So you have mer1t proper in

[wise orbit]

donghaks hero pool is much better for gib

[glass sleet]

Hanbin is the goat.

[errant hornet]

Therefore you play mer1t

[wise orbit]

he cant really carry on these ground tanks

like he can on dive

[glass sleet]

But they didn’t scrim gib

[humble token]

Bro

Coaches

Are so stupid

[robust patio]

someone and hanbin are both good

[wise orbit]

?

[robust patio]

stop arguing

[wise orbit]

how do you know

[humble token]

Why didnt t1 go gibralter

[errant hornet]

Woah there stop making sense

Cringe

[stray quarry]

glue factory Orisa joke in MY ow game

[sullen berry]

WHAT GLUE FACTORY UBER

[split flume]

chat

[robust patio]

insane proper

[glass sleet]

None of the Koreans scrimmed gib. Otherwise you would’ve seen Koreans picking it. CR not picking gib even tho they only wanna play dive tells you

[split flume]

falcons has macro

falcons has a plan beyond proper go kill

it might be over

[sullen berry]

Where is my mau ze Donghak

[stray quarry]

Donghak… Donghak…

[errant hornet]

Tbh falcons look better but like

It’s so hard when you have z3st vs proper

[sullen berry]

Max wishes he could be hanbin as the sub monster

[humble token]

This is not it

[errant hornet]

Zest just didn’t look great

[robust patio]

absolute highway

[wise orbit]

cr have not even had the chance to pick gib

can we stop making shit up please

[stray quarry]

My son. Stop playing mystery heroes

[humble token]

Bro i dont understand coaches

[errant hornet]

Buuut tbf donghak swapping to doom on like one of the best ball maps was ????

[glass sleet]

They did but didn’t. It’s just not all of us can have insight on these things

[errant hornet]

Like only after 99% did it look useful

[split flume]

im still feeling that aq 4-1 or 4-2's either of these teams

[wise orbit]

tbf the retake for ball into dva sym is tough

[sullen berry]

dude Zest AND Proud are just playing their own game

[errant hornet]

Yeah but the doom was the same shit tbh

[robust patio]

gg

[wise orbit]

definitely a better match up

[errant hornet]

And hard engaging into that comp on doom sucks

Ball at least u can hold the point longer

[wise orbit]

fair

[stray quarry]

maybe chiyo was #right

[wise orbit]

but they wanted to retake

[split flume]

oh my days

[mental vine]

SAUDI FANS NEVER CEASE TO AMAZE ME LMFAO

[split flume]

3 minute cap

[errant hornet]

Given zest still needs to have hammers thrown at him

[mental vine]

SAUDI CHEERS NEVER CEASE TO AMAZE ME LMFAOOO

[robust patio]

idk why t1 picked circuit but i aint complaining

[mental vine]

im literally hearing cheers like black panther

[weary scarab]

they kept their nuclear weapon for semis

[stray quarry]

donghak… the revenge narrative

[mental vine]

when this is a LITERAL world cup lmfao

[wise orbit]

they've literally not been able to in any of their games

their opponent have always picked escort first

stop just assuming shit lol

[mental vine]

when the atmosphere is more like the FIFA World Cup itself lmfao

[weary scarab]

finally widow

[split flume]

i really do think proper was made in a lab to play ow man

[robust patio]

o2 blast trained him

[mental vine]

MERIT WIDOW LMFAO

[glass sleet]

Yeah you’re right. But I’m still right about not scrimming gib

[wise orbit]

how do you know

[glass sleet]

It’s so obvious from all the hours I spent watching these Korean teams here the past few days.

[weary scarab]

get ofwidow lil bro

[glass sleet]

It’s just something you develop when you have insight

[robust patio]

o2 blast academy

[wise orbit]

yea just shut up respectfully LOL

[glass sleet]

Lol

Alright

[mental vine]

widowmaker

i havent seen widow in esports in ages

since owl 2018

when pine was in it

and ans in 2020

[robust patio]

best widow is ans - every owcs interview

[mental vine]

hmmm maybe zeta can hire ans back? LMFAO

[robust patio]

ans could come back tbh

hes never washed

[pure bramble]

ram block is so yucky

[robust patio]

[weary scarab]

[robust patio]

falcons winning

[split flume]

holy fuck

its a massacre

[mental vine]

LMFAOOOO

[glass sleet]

See? Hanbin is the goat

[robust patio]

last year champ : Cr
this year champ: falc

[mental vine]

hes content streamer for zeta

[pure bramble]

Merit gets value just by existing

[mental vine]

there is a chance he can make a triumphant reutrn

[robust patio]

its always cr or falc 😵

[glass sleet]

Someone only wishes he could be half as good

[torn gale]

hell yes falcons

[humble token]

No

[robust patio]

u think alq wins

[humble token]

YES

[pure bramble]

LOL

[robust patio]

alr

i guess

[glass sleet]

QAD AINT WINNING

FUK QAD

[robust patio]

let the man dream

[pure bramble]

that’s cruel

[glass sleet]

I’m a hater

[robust patio]

[humble token]

Al qad better on sym mirror

[glass sleet]

I admit

[robust patio]

hm

[split flume]

it would be utterly diabolical

if falcons won the whole thing

an insult to pro ow

[robust patio]

checkmate tracer vs proper tracer

[glass sleet]

I’m cheering for them

So yes

I hope so

[wise orbit]

aatlis i think to deny njc

and protect ban tank

[pure bramble]

Merit so locked

[glass sleet]

So they can win 450k

[stray quarry]

Match so boring im playing Umamusume Pretty Derby

[robust patio]

basically means emea will never win a final since this is a strong eu meta

bouta get my next rolex

[glass sleet]

I’m still mad on how tm lost

Beating CR just to lose to qad

[weary scarab]

the cope would be so funny if emea win

[robust patio]

well its the ewc system

i dont like tje single elimination too

[glass sleet]

This was TM’s only chance winning a major ever

[humble token]

Oh nah he is gonna blame the system if al qad win

Lol

[glass sleet]

Yalla can cope. Single elim is why the games have been so intense and fun. Everyone locking in instead of having boring ass upper brackets

Fuk you all

[robust patio]

never blamed the system at all

never did lmfao

[glass sleet]

The system is why CR lost

It’s against CR

[pure bramble]

I agree the formatting has been perfect. Al Qad certainly agree after mopping the floor with TM

[split flume]

id still hate single elim if all my least favourite teams were knocked out first

single elim is ass

[weary scarab]

3:2 map 6 "mopping the floor"

[glass sleet]

Winning is great losing is not lol. So if you’re winning than you’re loving this single elim system

[humble token]

Group stages have been goated

[pure bramble]

yk TM are cooked when four are resetting off the map

[robust patio]

tobi is the one blaming the system cus of tm vs alqad last match map vote going to alqad

[pure bramble]

Jonestown fight

[robust patio]

alqad has higher seed so they get advantage

common ow pro system

[pure bramble]

Quartz picks ammo perk

[robust patio]

he panicked

[quasi summit]

wait didnt they already ban dva

[glass sleet]

I’m blaming the bullshit draw system. It’s flawed. Idc if owl used it. OWL was flawed.

[pure bramble]

ermm TM deserved map pick even though they lost to third place NA

[glass sleet]

You don’t deserve to pick another map after drawing your map pick and ban pick

[robust patio]

well its ow pro system

get a higher seen then 🤷‍♀️

[mental vine]

HANBIN WAS AN ICEBERG NOW HE IS THAWED LOL

[glass sleet]

Falcons decided that map one was too close and that hanbin needs to come in and carry

Which I agree with

100%

[pure bramble]

ermm maybe don’t lose to Sign

[glass sleet]

Bench someone

[pure bramble]

maybe win your region

[split flume]

mer1t reaper?

gg 2-1

[glass sleet]

Erm sign showed up but it doesn’t matter. It’s semi finals why we still relying on seeding? You’ve lost your privilege

System must change. It’s terrible

[robust patio]

its a tourney

privileges dont go lost

if u win more

[pure bramble]

yes teams should lose their region and lose matches in groups so that and get treated equally to the team who won their region and their groups

[wise orbit]

why did donghak back up into that room

[glass sleet]

But you didn’t win. You drew

[glass sleet]

Region doesn’t even matter. It’s group seeding not “who won first in their region”

[pure bramble]

still shows Al Qad the better team overall

[glass sleet]

Anyway. It’s flawed and you guys can cope.

[robust patio]

the stall

stagger

[weary scarab]

they shoudlnt have a third place match

[robust patio]

is cruel

no touch

[robust patio]

i mean i dont like the system but yea it aint cope, we just following the ow pro competitive

[pure bramble]

i think a team getting punished when they messed up is ok tbh

if TM were that much better over Al Qad the group results should’ve showed

and TM should’ve gotten the tick

[glass sleet]

Qad having map pick and ban pick and NOT winning is a team messing up. That’s what I’m saying. But what do they get for drawing their map? Another map and ban pick

[robust patio]

they both get ban pick

[pure bramble]

they managed to hold TM from the one tick

[glass sleet]

Tm playing last map with their eyes closed anyway so it’s their fault but the system indeed is flawed

Whoever thought that’s fair should get fired

Unbelievable

[pure bramble]

you can’t even blame the time bank since that’s also on TM

[robust patio]

t1 is good in this map

[wise orbit]

whats wrong with the system

[supple plover]

chiyo has contracted viol2t disease i swear

[robust patio]

nothing

[wise orbit]

also why is zest really clean on the venture

[robust patio]

tobi just doesnt like how higher seed gets a map pick when its a draw

[wise orbit]

oh

well it makes sense i think

someone has to get it and it makes sense to give it to higher seed

[robust patio]

zest wow

why r u locked in

they flipped

[pure bramble]

the pressure working for him

[robust patio]

insane merit

ok zest

[wise orbit]

hanbin holding ult for the grand final

[robust patio]

sheesh

"give them enough rope, enough rope for falcons to hang themselves with"
holy shit uber

I'm sure i misheard that

how did bro live for that long

[robust patio]

[wise orbit]

why did donghak even swap

[robust patio]

Uh

[quasi summit]

if they ban orisa its genuinely over

[shut bobcat]

falcons save us from the tm fanbase

[glass sleet]

Smh

Chiyo failed hanbin

Saving beat for ow3

[humble token]

Just go doom widow

[glass sleet]

Fuk falcons

They subbed hanbin out

[wise orbit]

winnable asf for t1

[glass sleet]

It’s not his fault! Chiyo is ass!

[quasi summit]

maybe banning venture would be good for falc

[robust patio]

lol

[wise orbit]

I feel like njc would have been the only really hard map for them

maybe midtown will be difficult

[quasi summit]

zest is pretty cracked

[sullen berry]

I'm sorry zest, I wasn't familiar with your venture game

[humble token]

T1 can win

Ball decent this map

[wise orbit]

colosseo venture ban perhaps

[worn falcon]

LOL

[glass sleet]

Don’t my say that. It gives me PTSD

[humble token]

Zest go tracer?

[wise orbit]

play a sym comp

[robust patio]

fearing the zest aura

[pure bramble]

Someone hasn’t lost a map

Hanbin has

this series

[glass sleet]

Yes he has lol

[pure bramble]

^

[glass sleet]

All their series were 3-2

[glass sleet]

Ok now I hope falcons lose

So he ties with hanbin

[pure bramble]

works for me

[glass sleet]

I need to stop being a hater cuz I’m cheering for falcons

[pure bramble]

if falcons get reverse swept on “home” turf

I’m happy

[glass sleet]

But it’s so hard to stop the hate towards them since mayhem

[wise orbit]

somebody in

[glass sleet]

It’s a habit at this point

[robust patio]

orisa ban

or venture ban

[pure bramble]

probably orisa

[wise orbit]

orisa ban would be weird no

[glass sleet]

No

[wise orbit]

theres so much else u could play

[robust patio]

not rlly

[glass sleet]

Someone sucks balls on orisa

[robust patio]

told u

orisa ban

[pure bramble]

Venture sucks here anyway don’t they

[wise orbit]

huh

[worn falcon]

Go Go Someone
Suiiiiii

[wise orbit]

i'd think donghak would go ball here anyway

[weary scarab]

they wanna force him on ram or ball

[wise orbit]

I feel like orisa ban would be more impactful on like midtown

[humble token]

Freja ban is so dumb

[glass sleet]

Oh it’s not midtown

[pure bramble]

Proper better be trolling with the hover

[wise orbit]

im assuming they aren't planning on playing a sym comp here

[pure bramble]
