0-1
1-1
1-2
1-3
2-3
3-3
4-3

absolute reverse sweep

[quartz storm]

my fav map was esper just cus of the rein mirror lol

[robust patio]

hanbin thought he could match

[quartz storm]

rein is a very fun character to watch

more fun then ram for sure

[humble token]

I personally like doom gameplay

Since its very explosive

[quartz storm]

yea

[humble token]

Or sym gameplay

[robust patio]

flc vs varrl lmfao

japan fans

be cryimg

[quartz storm]

need liquid to win today

[robust patio]

when does it start

[wet bay]

Fuck wae

Actually just Seonjun against the world

[humble token]

True

Ade was doing nothing

[quartz storm]

17:30 est i think

i could be wrong

[humble token]

Seonjun was diffing heesang

[quartz storm]

thank god my scrim block is 10-12 today i don’t want to miss na

[robust patio]

and somehow managed to get mvp

[humble token]

He got mvp that game

Wtf

[quartz storm]

i’m kinda scared for heesang this match was not the best showing from him

his genji and sym were pretty good though

[robust patio]

yes

his tracer

was insane

[humble token]

Ye but seonjun played better, imo just backline gap

[robust patio]

more like ban gap

wae did a better map pick and ban

[humble token]

Huh, i mean cr backline

Meant

[robust patio]

xzi being left out

[humble token]

Dont think I watched owl when he was playinh

[mortal cipher]

That was 2020

[humble token]

I heard he was good

[robust patio]

good covid times

[robust patio]

high b tier

almost a

[mortal cipher]

Only time Paris was relevant

[robust patio]

if he joined good team then maybe he was shown

vegas itself isnt the best team

[mortal cipher]

lol

[robust patio]

imma sleep

pce

[viscid hatch]

Amazing game byw

Everyone throwing hands

[quartz storm]

lol

[humble token]

NOO I NEED SOMEONE ADRESS

[mental vine]

[mental vine]

Lower bracket teams always warmup

Cr only warmup through lower bracket

[sleek charm]

Hello selene

I legit don't know who that is tho

[torn portal]

koncrete

[sullen berry]

Hey, i could really see him joining PEPs as an import player. Trust in xzi

[sullen berry]

Preds for seeding:
Geekay vs PEPS
Twisted Minds vs SSG

Al Qads for EMEA 1 and Team Liquid for NA

[silent pike]

Okay so TM 3-0 peps then we get another map 7 in QAD vs TM

[pure bramble]

i love map 7’s

i hate seeing them every time these teams play

[humble token]

I didnt know match started

[sullen berry]

sure did

but it's also EMEA

their regions seems about locked or the most predictable to seed

[humble token]

Peps needs to step up

Tvnt 12-0

[sullen berry]

Peps need to defend the allegations that the french don't belong in playoffs

They do however deserve a shot

[humble token]

Why is dip on sym

[sullen berry]

i know they mean well but this juno glazing to try make it better is too much

[humble token]

What is this

[sullen berry]

respecting the quartz sym

[sullen berry]

somebody thought the upcoming juno skin (right) is not good, so they rendered their own (left) but idc that much

a reskin is a reskin

[grave python]

I love TM

[sullen berry]

I'll give it 30 mins

if it's flashpoint, maybe 17 mins

[humble token]

Dip needs to go tracer

Wait why did falcons ban orisa vs cr

And ban ram

What

Tvnt is pretty good

[silent pike]

Okay great as I predicted

Now it’s gonna be a map 7

[lusty flint]

Really wasnt looking for peps in stockholm 😭

Who does tm fight next if they win against qad

[pure bramble]

peps going to Stockholm reminds me of NTMR going to EWC

[humble token]

Damn

Tvnt is looking very good

[torn portal]

seicoe funnyastro was doing so much

[silent pike]

Tm my goats let’s go

[humble token]

Loser advantage has been so op today

First its cr

Now tm

Its

[pure bramble]

can Al Qad lock in

[lusty flint]

What a pulse

Lmaoo they stole the robot

Shit i was 1 min late lmao mb

[humble token]

Checkmate insane clutch

[balmy wolf]

if guxue retires im jumping

thoughts?

[lusty flint]

Ok

[humble token]

Landon ana

Sounds better than rupal

Tm comms need improvement

Quartz screams to much

[lusty flint]

But brig 1

[humble token]

Nice to see echo tho

[lusty flint]

Welp thats that

[humble token]

Need tm to get first seed

[silent pike]

MY GOATS ARE PERFORMING AS THEY SHOULD

AHHH ITS SO GOOD

YESSS THEY DID IT

4-1

WINNERS OF EMEA

[humble token]

Gg

Nice pause at end

Winners advantage is so real today

Geekay will beat liquid

[grave python]

GG TM

[humble token]

Seicoe was so good

[timid lantern]

why the fuck are they banning wrecking ball he's not even good

[sullen berry]

it's a filler ban

not completely wasted

strategically choosing the tank ban

and giving them more options next ban

[timid lantern]

then why not ban someone actually good on ilios

[sullen berry]

whats the running joke again in OWL

winning team always loses control?

basically the first map doesn't matter that much

so I wouldn't read into it

[cloud latch]

holy esports discussion is booming

[timid lantern]

so you can just throw on the first map then actually start trying on the next one

[sullen berry]

@cloud latch always has been outside of asia

[cloud latch]

🥹

[sullen berry]

I don't understand why you guys left in the first place

[timid lantern]

i also dont get why all the esports players use those ugly recolors instead of legendary skins or something

[sullen berry]

lowkey i find it easier to associate shu with the ugly masked Tal Ana

bro said himself that he wants his enemies to be scared/see something hideous af then they get eliminated by him

guess it's the same kind of logic as the junkrat trap spray

[cloud latch]

school mainly

[timid lantern]

are you trying to say that people fall for a spray instead of the actual trap?

[sullen berry]

London Spitfire featuring players like profit and gesture (disputed the greatest retired ow players) fell for it

[timid lantern]

how, junkrat wasnt ever meta

[sullen berry]

not during ow2

I'm talking 2018

[cloud latch]

95% of legendaries are mid

[sullen berry]

when strategies like those were one-offs

[cloud latch]

there are some great epic skins

[sullen berry]

you literally cannot do this again, unless your opponent is PGE

[timid lantern]

WHAT THE HELL IS THAT WACKY ASS TEAM ON THE LEFT??

[sullen berry]

wait until you learn who they had on the bench

they were clowned on as the streamer team

but effect widow was kinda cracked vs a lot of other god tier snipers back then

[sullen berry]

what a shame we only got to see them win so many games against Shanghai Dragons

[hybrid hollow]

Effect and 5 bums

[sullen berry]

Nomy and Sleepy are a couple of genshin gamers

[humble token]

Wth cuffa is so bad

Just go on hazard bro

[humble token]

Is geekay a sym team

[paper totem]

Bro falcons throwing hurts my soul so much

Need to see if they can take it back during world finals

If lip and proper were ever on same team I don’t think anyone could beat them

Lip carries cr so crazy

[humble token]

Why isnt cuffa playing haz

[onyx halo]

Its the final day of Copa America, with losers finals and then grands left to do.

Who will meet USA In the grand finals, Canada or Mexico?

"better than Infekted"

[humble token]

Cjay so clutch

[hybrid hollow]

This guy can't jump without taking 300 dmg

[humble token]

Watch infekted lose to

[hybrid hollow]

Ikr

[humble token]

Uv was throwinh

Why did bro not go kiri

[hybrid hollow]

cuffa threw the most last fight tho after a crazy stagger

[hybrid hollow]

They wanted the ana there it's a team comp gap

[humble token]

Huh he got a clutch kill on the tracer

When the primal was about to get no value

[hybrid hollow]

kill wasn't even clutch bc he got his primal forced giga early and died right after

[wise orbit]

yea js wait until stockholm lil pup

[humble token]

Cuffa didnt play hazard once

[hybrid hollow]

like u needed to save ur primal for their lane and bomb so u can have a longer fight

But he's just dead

Like Lenny is back the fastest and they have lane and bomb available getting ur primal forced so fast is definitely the worst option

[humble token]

Ig

The fight was pretty quick

I mean losers theory can still work here

Ssg can beat geekay

[hybrid hollow]

Who does na #3 play at stockholm

[humble token]

I think emea 2 not sure tho

[humble token]

Yeah

Is there lower bracket in Stockholm

[robust patio]

ofc

[half pendant]

ok so tree is an actual archer cool

[weak hound]

I wasn't expecting hanzo to go well tbh

[half pendant]

me neither lol

[weak hound]

Tr33 my goat though so

No surprise

[half pendant]

Sugarbron plz bring this home

[robust patio]

Tm expected to fight falc

Cr expected to fight alqad

nvm tm would lose to t1

wouldnt even have a chance to meet falc

semi finals would be

CR ALQ T1 FALC

[weak hound]

[robust patio]

3 korean teams joined bracket and 3 korean teams in semi finals 😵

[weak hound]

Banning the goat Tr33s freja

Liquid throwing

🙄🙄

[humble token]

Are u on something

[timid lantern]

so much dps variety
esports teams: tracer sojourn and freja only or else we lose

[robust patio]

idk in this meta

they gonna struggle for sure

[timid lantern]

hawk just clutched the game

[half pendant]

HAWK TUAHHHH

[weary tapir]

god damm, unc hawk still got it

[half pendant]

the hawkenheimer baby

[weary scarab]

tm 3:1 t1

al qad lose against cr

[weary tapir]

ayo wut avrl say?

[timid lantern]

it might be over for team liquid this point im not sure

nvm they capped

final stretch on the final point

[robust patio]

hmmm in this meta?

[timid lantern]

2-1

[weary tapir]

nooo...my goats c9'd ???

[timid lantern]

these are the bans for push? alr then

[weary tapir]

lep ajaxed???

[timid lantern]

2-2, 1 more game

[weary tapir]

oh this is gonna be a good grand final

its first to 4 not 3

[timid lantern]

i only have 72% on my home venture drop, im so doomed

there's no way this stream is going for another 80 minutes

maybe 20 if im lucky

WAIT WHAT THE FUCK WHY ARE THEY BANNING MAUGA

[hybrid hollow]

did ssg defer?

If so they banned mauga to protect the ram maybe

[timid lantern]

does mauga counter ram?

[hybrid hollow]

no they just don't want SSG to ban a tank

Not banning zar makes sense bc u wanna save it for map 6 or 7

[timid lantern]

wait there could be 7 maps?

[hybrid hollow]

Yeah

First to 4

[timid lantern]

thought there were only 5

[hybrid hollow]

grand finals is first to 4

[timid lantern]

so it's just like stadium but in the base game

[hybrid hollow]

uh i guess

It's more like stadium is like grand finals

[wise orbit]

main tank flux from infekted

[timid lantern]

spacestation is kinda sucking ass right now

[wise orbit]

W vega

[timid lantern]

3-2

spacestation needs to get it together

[weary tapir]

god damm that mauga ban was smart as hell

[timid lantern]

they need to have a really good ban or spacestation is done for

this is insane

kings row is next

[weary tapir]

those numbers are just insane

they banned the sig rather then the ram

[timid lantern]

i feel like a ram ban would have been better

[weary tapir]

idk

that sig pick cooked to perfection

[timid lantern]

there are just alot of bans these finals i dont get

also i just need to watch for 1 more hour for home venture

[hybrid hollow]

Yeah but SSG don't hate the ram mirror and Chris said in his interview that they know how to answer the ram

[timid lantern]

im so close to getting it, i just need them to continue talking

[hybrid hollow]

U don't know what to do against the sig and u still need to protect ur zarya so it makes sense

[timid lantern]

they killed lucio oh my god

[hybrid hollow]

So many Lucio teams in na

Well every team is a Lucio team but TL is the only team that doesn't hate Lucio being banned

[timid lantern]

oh my god spacestation is doing so good

they have 4 minutes on the last point

[weary tapir]

dude poor lep! omg

liquid was too eager those last 2 fights

[timid lantern]

spacestation can win this match

that team fight on last was crazy

[weary tapir]

pls draw liquid

[timid lantern]

i hope spacestation wins this so there could be a 7th match

[weary tapir]

dammit

[timid lantern]

3-3 i think

[weary tapir]

map 7

[timid lantern]

LETS GO

[weary tapir]

final map

[timid lantern]

I HAVE A CHANCE TO GET THE VENTURE SKIN

IM SO CLOSE

also wait how did liquid even lose

i wasnt paying attention

[weary tapir]

liquid coudnt defend for the draw and ssg got the 33% cap

[timid lantern]

oh so all they needed was to cap the minimum

[weary tapir]

yea

[timid lantern]

alr

anyway the final map is watchpoint

[weary tapir]

liquid ban sym and ssg ban ana

[timid lantern]

no teleporter rollouts?

[weary tapir]

here we go

zeruhh lost for min

[timid lantern]

i feel like this is gonna be a short match

ok maybe not

they just need to stay on the payload

come on cap

come on come on spacestation

ok

they capped

[weary tapir]

wow

[timid lantern]

damn spacestation couldnt cap the second point

guess team liquid is winning

[weary tapir]

literally stopped on the exact spot they also stopped geekay

[timid lantern]

spacestation is so fucked

it's so close

WHO'S GONNA WIN

[weary tapir]

YESSSS

YEAAAAAA

[hybrid hollow]

Reruns are the method for most money

[hybrid hollow]

Super doesn't wanna watch ts

tht guy couldn't gaf about the esport nowadays

[timid lantern]

i just need frogger to stream for 9 more minutes or something like that

[spark terrace]

Too busy giving his chair the Magic Mike experience

[timid lantern]

[spark terrace]

[pure bramble]

I’m just happy Geekay lost to ssg

[spark terrace]

SSG and TL might have a chance to make it to finals this year

[pure bramble]

[sullen berry]

[timid lantern]

zeta 💔

[ruby badge]

No but he's the official streamer or whatever for SSG

[errant karma]

i guess i want ssg win or peps to go far those would both be fun albeit unlikely outcomes

[robust patio]

at this point why not give 4seeds to korea

and not japan

let wae qualify instead of varrel

why not just give korea, china 2nd seed as well

so let zeta qualify with 5 korean teams

[humble token]

Liquid clutched

[errant karma]

liquid ftw

[glass sleet]

Didn’t alqad say second place emea has easier path in Stockholm? And then they lose to tm? Hmmmmmm sus

[humble token]

Its kinda True tbh

When i look at the brscket

U can avoid falcons

If 2and

While first place needs to face falcons

Tho there is a lowerbrscket

26-30 november

[torn portal]

no owcs for a month 😢

[grave python]

It’s gonna be tough

[robust patio]

fr

[robust patio]

thats why im going on a military vacay

at that time

[humble token]

Damn i got to drive lincensen test as december 1st

Hope matches arent to early

[glass sleet]

Yeah alqad were sandbagging

Going Ana brig echo?

[static turret]

Wasn’t tracer banned

Seicoe mirrors the echo and does more tho

[glass sleet]

Yes but they’ve never went echo. No one ever went echo when tracer is nerfed. They go reaper venture sym genji Mei never echo

[weary scarab]

sandbagging is cope

why would they wanna sandbagg and have to play an extra match and be in the same bracket as crazy racoons.

lower bracket also makes sandbagging pretty pointless

[teal hare]

Lower brackets still easier cause realistically they have a ok chance at beating raccoons
Falcons is gonna win no matter who they’re against most likely in that matchup

They’d also still end up in the lower bracket if they face falcons cause falcons is gonna knock them down there

Who’s crazy raccoons match against anyway

Cause depending they’d also still have tk face cr anyway
Losing just skips the falcons part of the first day

Tm is one of the best teams in the world (when the meta lets youbi play Mei or sym)

[humble token]

Best team without youbi to

[teal hare]

True
He’s more of a hindrance to have a lot of the time

[cosmic socket]

if there wasn't a boop from lep involved in that i want TLs golden stage revoked

[vestal spoke]

wbg winning stockholm

[sullen berry]

There was, it just depends how far back it counts

[paper totem]

EMEA have anyone notable

Or na

Vs Korea

[sullen berry]

Twisted Minds vs T1 on day 2

[sullen berry]

Need to see Al Qadsiah vs Geekay Esports on Day 1 for any sign of competition from #2 EMEA and #3 NA who'll face Weibo first before facing off against Crazy Raccoons

[sullen berry]

Team Liquid is the only one ive watched and can say have a plan vs Team Falcons

[vestal spoke]

wbg will wipe qad

sweep

landon will never touch ana again

I've never seen more China copium in my life

shy sweeps these

[robust patio]

NA and Emea has never won a finals yet

[mortal cipher]

Last one was pre owcs

[teal hare]

Only cr and falcons have won finals
Everybody except those two teams haven’t been able to win

There’s only 3 teams to ever make it to the grand finals

And the only non cr and falcons team to make it got 4 an 0d

[static turret]

Toronto took a map last ewc

[teal hare]

They didn’t make it to grand finals

[static turret]

They did

[teal hare]

The final match played was cr vs falcons

Toronto took a single map and lost the set against cr

Nightmare won 1 set
But then got knocked down to a rematch after falcons beat them and also ended up losing before the grand final

[static turret]

Grand finals of last ewc was cr vs Toronto

Ewc 2024

[teal hare]

Aq is the only team tk make it to the actual grand finals game

[static turret]

Which was also an overwatch lan

[teal hare]

looking back 8 of@these teams don’t even exist now which is funny

How did falcons not qualify did they just get a bad bracket run

Oh right single elim

God I hate single elim stuff for like only 1 tournament while every other one ever does the double bracket

No I remember this was emeas turn to be the free region that lan event

Wonder who’s turn it’ll be this one na or emea

Why

Stalker is the goat

It’s for last year’s performance no? Stalker was THE man last season. He even fucking rolled CR and everyone else at Stockholm with his insane echo and on top of that he spent half his time playing hs. He does it all at the highest level

[errant karma]

yeah i know hes the goat thats why i hate the org

they dont play him

also falcons is an industry plant org

theres no passion behind it just funded by the saudi government

I dont get why this is a problem

no problem i just personally dislike them more because of it

Just go on Liquipedia

[sullen berry]

Repeat with just 1 team remaining vs the loser of Upper Bracket Finals

[static turret]

the lb are weird this time

like the loser of TL and whoever they fight would fight the loser of peps and ssg

ig this is to get as many regional mixed atches

[robust patio]

everyones hope tbh

[sullen berry]

Its always been done this way for the past 4 internationals we've had, thats just how the lower brackets collide in Asia

But since we never got a pacific or Japan vs korea match, we didnt get any filler 3-0 matches

[grave python]

One day they'll lose

Ofc Korea is very strong and the strongest region right now

But that doesn't mean they're immortals

[robust patio]

the only way korea loses is in world cup

invite a dive meta team in qualifiers then change meta to poke meta in finals

in owcs it’s mostly impossible cus theres korean team for every meta

dive: t1 cr
brawl: cr falcon wae
poke: falcon t1

Moon: At least from what I heard, Blizzard is pleasantly surprised and satisfied with how well OWCS has been performing. It was good in 2024, but apparently it was even better in 2025. So hopefully fingers crossed for next year.

X · Oct 30, 2025, 1:59 PM

[cosmic socket]

landon's the goat western flex support but...

[grave python]

OWCS 2025 is definitely better than 2024 and is a good step in the right direction. But I hope they'll do more. They need to pull something huge since will celebrate its 10th anniversary next year.

We need lans for playoffs in every regions, a huge cashprize for the majors, more esports organization and....

More things I guess but we need it

[static turret]

More money isn’t the move just yet mainly cus they need it to be profitable

More partner teams is cool

And lans for each region is hard just bc of how big na and eu are

And China

[grave python]

It's too important if you want more teams like NRG and Cloud9 in the scene

[static turret]

Yea I think they’ll put more money into it

[grave python]

At least for playoffs

[static turret]

Cloud 9 backed out tho

[grave python]

For China you can make a LAN in Hangzhou it's great

We don't care how big it is as long as it brings a lot of fans there

Esports scene needs to be truly vibrant

[vestal spoke]

https://tenor.com/view/morgan-freeman-true-morgan-freeman-true-nodding-gif-13973817878387504960

[sullen berry]

If this is considered successful then they're going to continue working on areas that have been still painful leading up to the major events in order to make more money.

• Not enough Asia regular season broadcasts in english
• Pacific prize pool where players have to pay out of pocket travelling to Korea
• 25% earned from skin sales contributing 250k to the Hangzhou prize pool
• China Pacific & Japan struggling to grow as regions, though glad at thr very least shown that they want to increase viewership

Some things they can't improve on if they want to make it profitable, but its a better start than the vision last year

[mortal cipher]

maybe eventually Worlds will be bigger

like 4 seeds for LCK and LPL
3 for NA and EU and like 2 for the minor like Pacific and Japan

[sullen berry]

One thing that was clear midseason was they pitched stadium games to partner teams

I assume that they want to really build on the passionate stadium community to bring them in line as an esport addition

[grave python]

It should

But I really wish the best for the esports scene

I believe in it

[mortal cipher]

i mean League is always gonna be the gold standard for Esport events and thats kinda the hope is maybe Overwatch can get the to that hype or close to that much of an event

[grave python]

Yeah but we need more esports organisations to bring more hype and I'm thinking about some organisations that would help a lot in EMEA, and maybe NA with NRG and Cloud9 idk
But for this, we need more partner team and increase the cashprize for majors

If you take a look in Asia, there's a big hype because they love Overwatch, they always play in lans and you got T1 in the scene which is one of the biggest esports organisations

[mortal cipher]

T1 and GenG are big plus, but maybe other big tim Asia orgs like KT, HLE, and from the looks of it DRX might come since they added Overwatch to their camp or something

[mortal cipher]

yeah we need a few more recognizeable orgs for EU because TL is recognizeable for NA, but Eu doesnt have a Fnatic or G2 for Overwatch where they are known

[grave python]

I agree. I'm also hoping for some french esports organisations like Vitality or M8 GentleMates in EMEA too.

[mortal cipher]

KC ( Karmine Corp ) would also be cool for a french one

[grave python]

Would be huge as well

[mortal cipher]

i do find it funny the old CEO of Toronto got into some hot water over in League for doing the exact some thing he did in NA Overwatch last year

[mortal cipher]

all would be huge honestly

[grave python]

Of course

[mortal cipher]

indeed

[grave python]

I'm looking forward to the next years

[mortal cipher]

yeah should be good

[errant karma]

@vestal spoke

theyll win prob

[sage star]

it could be close tho i think geekay will put up a good fight

[teal hare]

That team was infamous cause of the coach alone
Dude was literally easily the worst coach of all time

He put people on off roles in official tournaments and forced in people from the contender team he used to be on so he’d have players who he knew he could bully

Also the team went 0-42 I believe which is also the largest loss streak in any competitive sport of an official team ever recorded

[robust patio]

yea u4 sucked

worst coach in ow history

Worst coach in t1 esports history imo

If they can’t manage to qualify again that is

Who’s gonna replace lip when he retires

Proud?

[reef seal]

Ngl quartz could win a major if he went to a good team but I am pretty sure he makes a rlly big pay check on his current team

[humble token]

Lip only wins cuz he is in a good team

And even if he is in a good team he still loses like the Atlanta rein

Menewhile quartz wins world cup with llbd7 on support

And when lip has one bad teamate his team comes at fourth

Clearly we know who is the better player

[mortal cipher]

He’s not called the eternal enemy of the Lpl for nothing

[high ermine]

lip was definitely the best hitscan player of all time at one point

goats getting old now tho quartz is def the best hitscan rn
