[stray jackal]

Thats a grand finals team

[teal hare]

Damn right it is

And proper and stalk3r are both free agents and some of the best dps period

You’d just need a hitscan

[wise orbit]

If stalk3r still goes to cr like rumours said who would they get as hitscan

because ade went to europe

kilo? lol

nvm hes on onside gaming

probe also seems to be on a team already

i actually have no idea who they would get

[robust patio]

stalker flex

[cosmic socket]

the rumor i saw was knife

which is serviceable enough

[unreal sonnet]

stalk3r can play hitscan

proper instead of stalker as i heard

[wise orbit]

wait im confused

so the rumour is that they’ll get both proper and stalker and then get another guy to play hitscan?

why would you dump so much money to get both proper and stalker if you are going to bench one of them

or am i missing something here

[cosmic socket]

i haven't seen the stalker rumor

[wise orbit]

i see

[cosmic socket]

last i heard stalker was cr

[unreal sonnet]

stalk3r cr proper zeta

[teal hare]

My I’m coping

[terse viper]

Idk how to scam

[stray jackal]

I meant that the guy who's recruiting is a bot

[terse viper]

I’m about like gold in support and dps, I don’t think that’s that bad

[stray jackal]

Thats not what i meant..

This guy is a bot

[unreal sonnet]

im ngl gold is pretty bad

my friend who has nothing but good aim got gold in placement soo

[supple elm]

How viable is cas in pro play

[stray jackal]

I love that your message got hidden cause you are a likely spammer

[supple elm]

It pmo im tryna appeal

[stray jackal]

XD

Have fun with that

[supple elm]

Thanks but got an answer for my question

[stray jackal]

Nope

I don't really watch it rn

[torn portal]

very

[supple elm]

U sure? Seen and heard all dps use soj and i don't really like soj

[torn portal]

twisted minds especially are known to pocket cass like crazy and through that strat they let him pop off

cass soj both rn are pretty good it’s mostly preference between them

[sacred gulch]

alvicate (@alvicates)

The sheeple are finally waking up. A new era is upon us and all owcs teams are going to be using grok… and there’s NOTHING you iPad artists can do about it #FUCKYOURPENCIL

X · Feb 26, 2026, 12:13 PM

im not gonna do it cause im not a violent criminal but alvicate is not safe in public anymore

geniunely what the fuck is wrong with this team

esp cause alvicate went from being well known to this

[supple elm]

Ok that's good to know tysm

[unreal sonnet]

played often

[sacred gulch]

why tf does it say likely spammer

functioning application

[supple elm]

I tried finding some vids so i searched for some matches but i js saw them always go soj lol and ik Tiktok streamers aren't reliable but they all put him as a/mid

[unreal sonnet]

cass requires alot of resources

[sacred gulch]

look for xzodyal and twisted minds matches

[unreal sonnet]

which u cant expect in ranked

thats why people say go soj

[sacred gulch]

most teams play dva cass and just give cass everything

if they play cass

[unreal sonnet]

hes still very good

[supple elm]

Cus i dmed alot of people from lfg so discord detected suspicious activity, disabled my account and limited me for being a spam.

[unreal sonnet]

play dva cass or dva soj yeah

[supple elm]

Like? Mind telling me since i play with friends

[sacred gulch]

then why are you asking about pro play

[supple elm]

Yeah some giel told me about twisted minds

[sacred gulch]

most of us here will never see even tier 3

[supple elm]

Im young Enough to aim somewhere and gotta have a goal to reach

[sacred gulch]

ladder at even the highest level will never reflect pro play

[unreal sonnet]

like you need healing 24/7

cuz u have short ass range

[supple elm]

So finding a pocket mercy is a good idea? Especially when she gets buffed?

[unreal sonnet]

and almsot no mobility

[sacred gulch]

your first goal is hitting max rank

c5 at least

[unreal sonnet]

nah prob c2 atleast

to be pro player

[sacred gulch]

i mean sure, but if hes hardstuck masters and aspiring for pro he should give up

if he can hit champ

he has a chance

[supple elm]

Well all im asking is how viable cas is to actually reach that and based on yall answer seems like he is

[unreal sonnet]

hes viable yea

[supple elm]

Well ill remember u trust

[supple elm]

That's good enough thank yall alot!

[sacred gulch]

basically only like 4-5 unuseable heroes truly in the game rn

[unreal sonnet]

name me those

[sacred gulch]

and one of them is used to hard counter mauga comps

[unreal sonnet]

isnt it just

lw moira hog

[sacred gulch]

Sombra/Mercy/Lifeweaver/Moira/Rein or Mizuki

hog too

[unreal sonnet]

som isnt unusable

[sacred gulch]

.

[unreal sonnet]

rein is actually ok pick against some comps

or with some comps

[unreal sonnet]

mercy isnt too bad for poking aswell

[sacred gulch]

everytime mercy sees pro play usage its a map win and they lose after

[unreal sonnet]

sombea not too sure tbh

[sacred gulch]

at least weaver had a meta

[sacred gulch]

i just said

[unreal sonnet]

pharah mercy

[sacred gulch]

.

[sacred gulch]

yes

rialto

[unreal sonnet]

kings row first point

[sacred gulch]

and then they proceed to lose every map after

pharmercy on kr first point

[supple elm]

U think mercy is good as a pocket cor cas tho?

[sacred gulch]

eccentric i guess

[unreal sonnet]

well cr used it

[unreal sonnet]

eh nah

id say bap would be better

[sacred gulch]

hell no

[unreal sonnet]

to actually save cass

[sacred gulch]

id rather a weaver than mercy

[unreal sonnet]

when hes getting focused

[sacred gulch]

and weaver isnt great either

[unreal sonnet]

i think

bap is pretty good rn

[sacred gulch]

ana is just a little ass rn tbh

is mostly why

[unreal sonnet]

why tho

anti heal and sleep is still most scary ability

[supple elm]

Is she gnna be a good pocket after the buff?

[unreal sonnet]

oh lemme guess

dva meta

[sacred gulch]

global passive changes make her role harder to play for one you need mobility

[unreal sonnet]

this bitch kills ana too easilt?

[sacred gulch]

not just dva but sure

[unreal sonnet]

i thought her global passive is pretty ok?

[sacred gulch]

its just a high mobility meta in general its why zen with buffed discord is ass

he is free kill

and he cant be pocketed like cass or other heroes can be

zen cant be a win con

[unreal sonnet]

pls kill kiri lucio meta tho

definition of good supp player is just

survive well

or lucky kunai

[sacred gulch]

im fine with kiri going but if they hard nerf lucio the game gets worse

no reason for lucio to not be in the meta

[unreal sonnet]

we are seein same supp for 3 straight years

[sacred gulch]

hes incredibly hard to use as is and his macro fundamentally makes overwatch

you know how to fix the lucio problem?

[unreal sonnet]

atleast kill kiri then

[sacred gulch]

make better fucking main supports

mizuki is abysmal dogshit

even in ladder

and cat fills too small of a niche

[unreal sonnet]

tryhard to charge healing aura

to be barely same with lucio

😭

[sacred gulch]

*to be barely on par with BRIG

who is also not good rn

[unreal sonnet]

max heal aura is same with lucio

[sacred gulch]

just play brig if you wanna play mizuki

[unreal sonnet]

20v20

[sacred gulch]

he doesnt fill lucios role, hes more like brig

bring back the weaver meta ong

[unreal sonnet]

i want some

skillful supps meta

like ana illiari

bap

[sacred gulch]

i think you're playing the wrong game dawg

[stray jackal]

I thought he was a nice guy... what the hell

[sacred gulch]

our skillful supports starts and ends with lucio

kek

[unreal sonnet]

hmm

lucio isnt easy

[sacred gulch]

hes one of the hardest heroes to use effectively

[unreal sonnet]

idc

kill him anyways

ive seen enough

in that logic

[sacred gulch]

the koreans yearn for double flex

[unreal sonnet]

genji tracer should be meta

[sacred gulch]

i love being right LMFAO

[unreal sonnet]

maybe thats why

theyre never keeping reaper

stay above b tier

[sacred gulch]

why do you want 4 flex meta

what is this goats

[unreal sonnet]

because f dps

is much harder to play

than hitscan

literally anyone can spam m1

[sacred gulch]

i guess

if its a full flex meta we literally go back to past unhealthy metas btw

main support as a role is dead

[unreal sonnet]

those who know brig reaper echo juno mauga

[sacred gulch]

if not for role lock the flex dps wouldnt be played at all either

[teal hare]

Wasn’t Mauga meta partiallt double flex when soj was banned

Like venture genji or tracer genji where two solid teams for that comp

[unreal sonnet]

only reaper echo could kill mauga so only they were played

[torn portal]

It was also because the ult rotation was insane

juno speed or ray or both on reaper ult echo always duped reaper

plus combo with cage

it was just super macro “who can use their ults better” meta for stockholm

[static pond]

Ngl I kinda want owcs to get team heretics

God way to bring attention to na they all get a lot of views on twitch

[mortal cipher]

Or another big eu org

Like G2 or even tho Fnatic sucks it would help

[static pond]

It also a Spanish org

[mortal cipher]

lol

Tru

[static pond]

Heretics been punishing above thete weight too

Punching*

[static pond]

I would
Love fnatic

But I feel
Like g2 n fnatic wouldt make content or bring much attention to owcs

[unreal sonnet]

if owcs gets bigger

maybe

[static pond]

Team heretics also got kick out of val tho so that concerning

[unreal sonnet]

huh

why

[static pond]

Broke there contact they were accepted cuz the owner would stream the matches but he didt

[mortal cipher]

I have a love hate relationship with Fnatic

[mortal cipher]

I thought that was MKOI because they’re still in Val

[static pond]

Oh shoot it is lmao

[mortal cipher]

Ye

[static pond]

I forgot there 2 Spanish orgs

Lmao

[mortal cipher]

I think there’s 3 because GiantX are also Spanish

[glass sleet]

What…? No way.

[mortal cipher]

They didn’t don’t worry

[glass sleet]

TH is still in Val…

[mortal cipher]

Yeah

It was MKOI

[glass sleet]

Aren’t they the org for Toronto defiant?

[mortal cipher]

Yep and the owner caused another fight with a tier team lol

[glass sleet]

What did they do…

[mortal cipher]

Remember his insult when they lost to the shock ???

[glass sleet]

No…

That was in ow?

OH

when he called them bunch of collage students or something

[mortal cipher]

Yeah he called the shock a bunch of college students

[glass sleet]

I mean it’s true.

Plus Kellan

[mortal cipher]

And in EMEA masters he called the team that won twice in a row a troll team

So it was kinda funny seeing him do it again

[glass sleet]

They won all 4 stages of na and still left cuz ow didn’t have enough sponsors

And now he’s kicked from Val?

[mortal cipher]

Yeah

I mean MKOI is the second best team in league so there’s that

[glass sleet]

What league

[unreal sonnet]

hows genji in pro play rn

[glass sleet]

LoL?

[mortal cipher]

Of legends

[glass sleet]

Actually? Thought apac teams were better

[mortal cipher]

Ok let me rephrase second best team in eu

[glass sleet]

Ah ok

[mortal cipher]

The best team rn is probably GenG

[glass sleet]

When TD left ow, their owner of whatever said on stream that it’s fine cuz they’re still the best org in COD

[mortal cipher]

Ah

Makes sense

[glass sleet]

I think it has to be T1. It’s T1 LoL

[mortal cipher]

That’s what they used for EWC

[glass sleet]

Yep

[mortal cipher]

Well t1 is out of the tournament rn

[static pond]

There like 5 I think on ranking

[glass sleet]

Ah

[mortal cipher]

Which means they win worlds again lol

[glass sleet]

I wanna see geng win worlds

[mortal cipher]

The T1 circus be like that

[static pond]

optic la thieves n prob g2 are the best rn

[mortal cipher]

Last time was 2017 when they were still SSG

[glass sleet]

Optic still at it in cod huh

[static pond]

Ya still dominating

[glass sleet]

NADESHOT went from being a pro player to an org owner

[static pond]

Even tho they lost the recent finals

[static pond]

Think he left it

[glass sleet]

He left 100t?

[static pond]

He not the owner I don’t think so

He
Prob just a steamer

Streamer

[glass sleet]

I looked it up real quick. He stepped down from being the CEO and is more focused on content creation with 100t I guess

But of course he’s still a founder

So he has those responsibilities whatever they are

[static pond]

Ye

[static pond]

I think owcs should sign t2 teams

I don’t see big orgs joining owcs

I mean we had a option ntmr

[glass sleet]

I mean you’re kinda right with Peps and DSG joining but also we got envy and the Chinese orgs are big ones I believe

I’m still sad about geng tho

Did SSG leave OW? Why aren’t they included in their website

[static pond]

Envy Ist that big now I don’t think so

[static pond]

Ye Chinese ya overwatch is big over there

[glass sleet]

Interesting

[static pond]

They pretty big before I think cuz they merge with optic

But no longer are

[static pond]

Didt notice this oof

[glass sleet]

I knew they weren’t like TL level but decently big

[glass sleet]

I thought ssg picked up a huge roster, no way they invest so much just to lose partner

[spice urchin]

GUYS WHAT IS YOUR RANKS

[mortal cipher]

Maybe

[mortal cipher]

JDG is big

[glass sleet]

Yeah

[grave python]

Not this year

But if the World Cup is successful, it will kickstart a lot of things in OW esport

I can see big orgs joining OWCS in 2027 or 2028

NRG will come back one day

I think the first thing that matters is sponsors

OWCS only had DHL as sponsor last year

It's kind of worrying but at the same time, OWCS launched only 2 years ago and Blizzard are kicking off a lot of things for esports this year

World Cup is going to be extremely important for OW esport this year

But they'll also need to change the OWCS format cause it's clearly trash

[storm falcon]

ade is mealgaru's older brother?

[sleek cargo]

Is anyone else overwatch glitching like so MUCH today?

I barely cant even play a game cus it disconnects everytime

[cosmic socket]

nrg actively still want to have an ow division but blizzard declined their partner team request

[grave python]

Yeah they declined their request and it's still a mystery that needs to be studied

Team Liquid is a great choice but SSG ?

SSG isn't a bad org at all and they're not random but wtf

Why would you pick SSG when you can pick NRG

[cosmic socket]

who knows

[grave python]

I'm glad to see SSG in OWCS but I miss NRG

NRG will come back in 2027 I can feel it

[teal hare]

I don’t think ssg over nrg is as big of a why as DSG in general

[static pond]

Didt they sell?

[static pond]

Nrg was kinda suffering I think from money issues

[grave python]

They did but they said they hope to re-enter in OWCS when the time is right

Junkbuck best coach in the world

[cosmic socket]

https://tenor.com/view/supertf-teamusa-gif-144919676586856339

[teal hare]

It’s time for
Usa to look like a contender and then not even top 4 again

WHOOOO

[cosmic socket]

usa legitimately has the legs to win it this year

we have the talent and the coaching staff

[teal hare]

that’s what everyone said last time

[cosmic socket]

honestly it all depends on how haku and majed look

or whoever ksa signs for their backline

[static pond]

Nothing saving na

[torn portal]

Will lenny become the next big sym main under both christfer AND junkbuck? More likely than u think….

Top 3 is easily USA KSA KR

[cosmic socket]

i think we can beat ksa

[torn portal]

If meta never changed for 8 months KSA wins and usa kr is lowk a banger

Tho it depends

[cosmic socket]

like tvnt ziyad and quartz are thanos but the backline is really iffy

[torn portal]

Usa with their backline is probably more powerful

Changed my mind

[cosmic socket]

haku would need to level up and majed would still need to have it after not playing for a year

[pallid spoke]

Tr33 gap quartz and hawk gaps tvnt

I am NOT coping.

[torn portal]

Wait

I bring admiral to the table

Admiral -> Ksa

Replacing haku

Unless estonia is secretly hiding a full team admiral could now go to saudi

[cosmic socket]

i feel like quartz or youbi said ksa won't pick up non saudi players

[torn portal]

Their loss then

[cosmic socket]

idk how much weight that statement holds

but i don't see it happening

[teal hare]

I feel like your under talking on how solid chinas team was last time and how much they’ve improved as a region even then

[cosmic socket]

i feel like that depends on if they can beat the winston merchant allegations

[teal hare]

At that point just have more then guxue as your only tank

There’s other tanks

I see this going further than they have before

[glass sleet]

Quartz youbi tvnt sirmajed and admiral sounds good

[cosmic socket]

yeah but

they won't pick up non saudis

just shooting themselves in the foot for no reason

[glass sleet]

They’re stuck with haku I guess

I mean it’s KSA. People will hate and say whatever even if they pick up admiral

[cosmic socket]

idk

[glass sleet]

“Their national team isn’t even all Saudi lo”

[cosmic socket]

i could see a world where haku levels up this year

[teal hare]

I@mean
Didn’t they win with an all Saudi team last worlds

[cosmic socket]

another big if is majed

[teal hare]

They’re essentially the reining champs country wise for the last owwc

[cosmic socket]

hasn't played in a year and apparently al qadsiah are struggling in scrims

[static pond]

What mouse do y’all
Use? Looking for a replacement

[glass sleet]

Yeah but that was a “fluke” as they like to say

[glass sleet]

Glorious model D wireless

I think

[glass sleet]

OWWC and OWCS current champs

[glass sleet]

He’s on alqad right? We’ll see how he plays after two year break

[cosmic socket]

yea and apparently they don't look great

[glass sleet]

Maybe they need time to adjust. They also didn’t have the privilege of going to the bootcamp

[static pond]

Good choice

I look into it

Looks good from the specs btw

[glass sleet]

Eh. Wish I knew about the O model. Would’ve preferred it smaller

Not like it’s heavy. It’s 69g I believe

[static pond]

Oof my old was like around 50

I hated it the I think the height was like 37

So it made the back kinda annoying

[glass sleet]

Too light? I’ve only had one mouse and so I don’t really have any kinda reference. It’s just “not heavy” imo

[static pond]

The model d 2 pro has 4k polling rate n 62g

Might snatch that one for the polling rate

I wanan try 4k

[glass sleet]

I don’t see why not

Go for it

[static pond]

My old was like 49g

[static pond]

Nah it didt bother me I had the Logitech g305 as my starter

[glass sleet]

That’s a popular one I believe

I almost got that one as well

[static pond]

I got a asian brand later as a gift

[glass sleet]

I guess you can say I got my current one out of convenience lol

[static pond]

That was 49g

[glass sleet]

Super light

[cosmic socket]

was going to the bootcamp necessarily that much of an advantage?

[static pond]

It a good mouse good shape but a bit to heavy for my liking lol

N the battery adds to the weight

[glass sleet]

I mean it gave tm the practice they need to roll the Koreans off sym

[cosmic socket]

ig new rosters got to play together

but forcing all the teams to play new heroes made it kinda micky mouse imo

[glass sleet]

I’m just wondering how much it will effect Jaewoo when he’s on 100 living in Riyadh

[glass sleet]

It was just for the first map

It didn’t do much

If anything, maybe it helped the weaker teams take maps

[cosmic socket]

team liquid 👀

[glass sleet]

I just hope my current mouse hangs in there for as long as possible cuz I have other PC items that are a priority

[glass sleet]

Team quied won the mirror true but who knows if it’s cuz of the comp or what

[static pond]

lol same I wanna upgrade my gpu n ram

With my case too

[glass sleet]

I wanna change so many things I might as well buy a new PC

[static pond]

I wanna
Upgrade I think it the 9060xt from amd

While changing my case to a lian linlancool 217 with wooden sides

[glass sleet]

Do you actually need to change your motherboard if you wanna switch from intel to amd?

[static pond]

Ya I think so

The socket is different for cpus

[glass sleet]

Welp…I mean I guess I should upgrade my motherboard anyway

I mean I am upgrading it

And switching to Amd

[static pond]

Usually your
Cpu says the socket it uses

[glass sleet]

And going for 32 ram

[static pond]

N the motherboard too

[glass sleet]

Yeah like I said…might as well buy a new pc lol

[static pond]

Should
Try pc partpicker

[grave python]

Team Liquid
Team Quied

[static pond]

It a good way to see how much it is overall n compatibility

[glass sleet]

I don’t build my own btw. I’ve also only had one pc. I’m going for pre built but I’m choosing the specs I want. What specs do I want? I don’t remember. I’ll start looking into it again once I have the money lol

I’m saving up

[static pond]

Understandable

Building pcs is annoying

But I enjoy every second of it lol

[glass sleet]

Yeah…I almost ruined my GPU cuz I didn’t know I had to press before pulling

[glass sleet]

Fair. I really don’t have the experience or the time

At some point I was going for a 5070 ti and I hope those are still around whenever I save enough. Knowing Nvidia just announced they’re not launching new GPUs cuz of AI…

[static pond]

A mini side thing when
You do install revo uninstalled

It a good way to remove games n extra left over files

[glass sleet]

Yeah it removes things completely

Thanks for the reminder

Speaking of rgb

I have it off for my mouse

I don’t care for it especially on the mouse

S3 summer showdown and countdown cup era 😍

Take me back

[mortal cipher]

100% OWL winrate

[tawdry hamlet]

Just so peak back when there was enough money to sign random one tricks

And every team had like a 7 man roster minimum

The pre noticing the huge losses era of owl

Back when players who weren't good enough to be around anymore got to hang around on a roster for good times sake

It is crazy to think how bad some of the s3 players were

S4 kind of weeded out all the extras in the league

[unreal sonnet]

ow downfall needs to be studied

especially esports

[tawdry hamlet]

I mean even if covid never happened the league would've fell apart but covid killed the optimism completely and made the big losses even more noticeable

[cosmic socket]

i mean the league was just set up to fail

[tawdry hamlet]

They over valued it so hard 😭

20 million buy ins

[cosmic socket]

it was fun while it lasted but that model was not built for long term

[tawdry hamlet]

The blizzard drama cooking all the sponsors on top of covid crippling the in person revenue just made the end inevitable

https://tenor.com/view/overwatch-overwatch-league-owl-transbuck-jake-lyon-gif-4668312086599536876

[cosmic socket]

i think the ow for sure has the potential to be a big name esport again it just needs natural growth

like league didn't have a successful esport overnight

and if ow stays on the path it's currently on the esport will naturally grow with it

[tawdry hamlet]

We also have to remember overwatch is like 10 years old now with what is roughly the exact same product

[tired epoch]

[wise orbit]

kind of sad emea had to cut down to 6 teams

teams like bomba, goud guys, jäger etc that wont make it in this format I think could have upset a lot of the other teams in owcs

probably not tm and maybe not vp but the rest for sure

on like a good day

[static pond]

State Farm is there

[wise orbit]

not heard of them

[grave python]

I strongly believe in it

They're bringing back World Cup it's already massive

[torn portal]

in blizzards defense teams weren’t this good last time

if not having another quick esports slop team is a reason i entirely get it

[wise orbit]

i mean even then i felt like at least in emea every team was at least a little competitive

we didnt really have meme games like na

[torn portal]

what game wants their esport to have days where a huge number of viewers won’t tune in because it’s too uncompetitive

6 teams kinda ensures there’s very few days like this

also the owwc reasons

[teal hare]

Imma. E honest
No matter what I personally dislike 6 teams cause looking at the teams that have formed that aren’t partner who are trying to get in now
We don’t have enough t2 stuff for any growth to become impactfum I don’t think

[unreal sonnet]

baji

[unreal sonnet]

hes just team influencer

and bro didnt make any special contents abt t1 🥀

[mortal cipher]

He’s just a CC

Like Wolf or Poko

So

[glass sleet]

Really? I don’t think they can even beat alqad…

[glass sleet]

Yeah I’ve NEVER once watched the bottom two teams last season

[wise orbit]

well they shouldnt but i feel like a lot of them could have upset potential

maybe im over estimating t2 emea

[glass sleet]

I don’t think they’ll even beat peps

Peps took a map off CR. Something bottom teams would never

But idk. You never really know

[cosmic socket]

i mean it's obviously horrible for the t2 scene but it leads to a much better broadcast experience

[wise orbit]

Maybe

[cosmic socket]

but the future of ow esports is already shaky

[wise orbit]

If you have more competitive teams its fun for variation

[cosmic socket]

you gotta prioritize the broadcast for smaller esports like ow

[cosmic socket]

yeah but the bottom 2 weren't competitive

[wise orbit]

I think they could be in emea

[cosmic socket]

you had dhill ducks and quick

[wise orbit]

that was my point at least

like i think the talent in t2 emea is high enough

[cosmic socket]

i also think 6 teams makes things more intense because it means actual good teams have to worry about dropping to faceit masters

like literal partner teams like peps and dsg now have to worry about being relegated

[grave python]

And why ?

[cosmic socket]

owl dying

i mean things have gotten better but if you want ow esports to get bigger you have to prioritize the broadcast

[grave python]

OWL is dead for almost 3 years

[stray jackal]

And i don't think owcs is dying at all

The Overwatch Champions Series (OWCS) has demonstrated strong, growing viewership, surpassing the final Overwatch League (OWL) seasons. The 2025 World Finals peaked at 177,010 viewers, marking the highest for the game since 2023, while the 2024 Finals hit 159.9K peak viewers. Average viewership has shown significant year-over-year growth, often exceeding 100k concurrent viewers during key matches.

[grave python]

OW esports has clearly a bright future imo

[stray jackal]

Yea :D

[grave python]

They’re bringing back World Cup

[stray jackal]

At least as long as quartz my goat keeps playing

[grave python]

Remember

[stray jackal]

ye

[grave python]

World Cup is a huge boost for OW esport and if it’s successful it will change a lot of things in esport

World Cup is definitely going to be extremely important

I'm also hoping they'll make BlizzCon after 2026 so we can have World Cup every year and it'll help OW esport a lot

[glass sleet]

Ow had more views for worlds and off season.

[open gust]

Overwatch esports is back let’s hooo

[grave python]

Can’t wait for World Cup

I need to know the location for qualifiers

[open gust]

Team South Korea probably jut gonna be CR

[grave python]

Shu instead of Vigilante

Cause Vigilante is playing for CR

[open gust]

I don’t know if shu can play because of his boosting history

But idk if that still still applies

[grave python]

Idk

[open gust]

I mean it was why proper and shu didn’t play for 2023

[grave python]

Yeah we’ll see

[open gust]

If zeta don’t make a lan this year im gonna explode

[grave python]

LOL

Real

[teal hare]

Zeta will still somehow find a way to collectively choke when it counts

[grave python]

Rumors said that Proper is also joining Zeta

[teal hare]

The whole team with proper will just randomly mid match run out of hands

[open gust]

Surely we cannot lose with a shu violet back line, I need knife to be the best hitscan of all time

Surely we can beat a t1 team with bliss 💀

[teal hare]

I mean
Proper carrier mer1t

[dreamy flame]

If you get the blizzcon tickets do you have to additionally purchase world cup tickets?

[open gust]

Not a clue, who is Canada gonna get as a team brah there’s like 2 Canadian overwatch players

[teal hare]

Most of dhillducks where Canadian after that it’ll be scraps

Canada ain’t gonn hsve a team worth cheering for

[glass sleet]

Really? I feel like it might be falcons plus maybe shu

Cr are kinda dive one tricks. Especially monkey and ball. South Korea would want a team that can play dive AND brawl.

Also lip over merit

[open gust]

Thing is the staff is just the CR staff so they’re gonna be biased

[glass sleet]

Oh is it? Then yeah that might change things.

But I believe falcons core is better. Hanbin someone over max Junbin

[open gust]

I take current state junbin over someone but that’s just me

[pallid spoke]

Twis Quartz (@owquartz)

who do i even contact about this shit😭

they wont respond to tickets and wont clarify why i got banned
crazy how this game has been out for 10 years and still has the most dogshit ban system in history @Blizzard_Ent

X · Feb 27, 2026, 6:20 PM

[idle cliff]

does that disqualify him from owcs

[teal hare]

I mean if he can’t play it might

Like I’m suprised he’s not more frustrated

[wise orbit]

im pretty sure imoh was barred from competing because his account got banned

[teal hare]

If quartz is actually fully banned I geniunely think that’s like the worst case for owcs

The best hitscan rn being banned would be fuckin bad

[open gust]

Rip quartz

[glass sleet]

Yeah I hate when they don’t tell you why you got banned which is complete bs. My friend got banned and got the same bs.

[glass sleet]

He’s been winning too much. Someone had to put a stop to him I guess

[pallid spoke]

It was one of his alts so I don’t think he’s comp banned

[teal hare]

Oh it’s an alt
That’s good at least

[abstract night]

yo free my man quartz

[hollow fog]

“our support staff will not overturn and may not respond to appeals” this is genuinely one of the worst ban systems EVER

[mortal cipher]

Thankfully I never had that but not telling you the reason behind the ban is some stupidity

[proven wind]

interesting

proper released by falcons

Cavalry Esports (@OWCEsports)

The rumour mill continues to churn as @FalconsEsport announce the release of DPS player @Ow_Proper 🔫

X · Feb 27, 2026, 10:39 PM

Proper will join Shu and they'll make Zeta qualify for EWC and Worlds

[teal hare]

Zeta cr and t1 the new best 3 Korean teams

Hanbin found with broken back

[cosmic socket]

if zeta can score proper and shu it's over for everybody

zeta can put seeker lep and mag starting and still win korea with proper shu

[grave python]

Yeah but Lep is trash 💀

[teal hare]

Yea but with proper and shu that will barely matter

[sacred gulch]

why tf is quartz banned

[teal hare]

Pretty sure people figured out it’s an alt

Otherwise we have no fuckin clue not even quartz knows

[sacred gulch]

if its an alt then his pro career is fine

but that also calls into account what he did and blizzard should tell you

cause if it comes out it was like “please stop walking forward” or “please switch”
blizzard is gonna get dogpiled

[teal hare]

Blizz should tell you regardless but yea that’s the thing
Not even he knows what he got banned for

[sacred gulch]

@teal hare are you on twitter

Ladies and gents the team that can potentially beat twisted minds this season and a VERY strong candidate for 2026 world champions

@robust patio THIS is a W

Do note: CRUSTY is back in Korea

[mental vine]

Houston Outlaws + Proper that I can root for

[mental vine]

Instant World Champs vibes

FALCONS u are HISTORY

[mental vine]

It is official oh it is ON!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I REALLY want to see proper play Anran after that initial Seoul t1 building boot camp

The only person who can ACTUALLY play the hero

Since he is a god in genji

Oh…. Imagine shu playing maybe mizuki with his spirit chains

Viol2t can be good with jpc cuz we’ve seen Lucio players can do jpc

Ohhhh KNIFEEEEE

knife proper is not bad

Knife can do emre

Hopefully Bernar can do well on Domina Mealgaru is ALSO very good with his strong performance from WAY

Ya CR vs Zeta in EVERY Korea finals

And hopefully zeta wins all major tournaments

[mental vine]

Me neither

[mental vine]

I think they will be still played

[mental vine]

Don’t forget jpc as well

But I can see that

You know viol2t can ALSO do main support not just flex

[mental vine]

Zeta >> twisted minds on paper but we will see

[mental vine]

100% agree falcons are done

[grave python]

Nah TM is still the best team in the world imo but we'll see

[mental vine]

They are history

[mental vine]

Yea I’m really excited if zeta can dethrone them

[grave python]

Falcons has Junkbuck as coach so I won't bury them

Junkbuck is the best coach in the world

[mental vine]

And zeta has crusty

Geng crusty not so great

But in Korea he is also good

[grave python]

Yeah Crusty is better in Korea

[mental vine]

And crusty has proper

Huge connection

[grave python]

Junkbuck has also Checkmate

[static pond]

Ngl I think cr is still better then zeta

Due to knife

[mental vine]

And junkbuck still can’t have falcons beat cr

Even in major

[static pond]

Ngl I feel
Like crusty is a fraud

[mental vine]

Except in the world finals

[grave python]

Crusty hasn't done great with Gen.G

[mental vine]

That’s because he is a fraud in emea

[static pond]

Ye look at junkbuck

[mental vine]

But in Korea region he is godlike

[static pond]

Bro might be goated coach

[grave python]

Junkbuck is the best coach in the world

[static pond]

He’s missing his other coaches tho

[grave python]

He really pushed Al Qadsiah very far

[static pond]

Fr

[mental vine]

Yea

First it was pavane, then crusty, then moon, and now junkbuck

[grave python]

And he also coached great players

Ziyad is insane

[static pond]

Pavane?

Wast he always wjth moon tho

[mental vine]

Og owl Korea coach

[static pond]

On dragons

[mental vine]

Made NYXL dominant in first owl season until like in the playoffs

[static pond]

Ah

Blizzard change the patch that why

[mental vine]

I’m talking about history of Korean coach success

[static pond]

It was hanzo buff

[mental vine]

And dominance

[static pond]

I feel like nyxl was also due to wizard

He was on Atlanta but when he left it all fell apart

[mental vine]

It was pavane -> crusty -> moon -> junkbuck

Either way I can’t wait for 2026 zeta ow

yall can’t miss proper Anran

He makes up for knife’s performance

[static pond]

I feel like it prob be tracer n the new dps hitscan

[mental vine]

It’s like saying Jaewoo in twisted minds helped for the performance for Youbi’s worst performance

[grave python]

I just wouldn't be surprised if they beat CR on a good day but they'd definitely beat Falcons or T1

[static pond]

Or soj again

[grave python]

And they can make top 2 easily

[mental vine]

Anran is literally genji 2.0

[static pond]

Ye goated lip n stalker duo tho

[mental vine]

And he is going to be great with her

Oh yea… I forgot to mention stalk3r

Oooooh this is gonna be spicy

Instant cr vs zeta

[static pond]

Stalker bring the best flex n lip the best hitscan

Being *

[mental vine]

Ok

Zeta vs cr in every korea final

[static pond]

Prob

I can kinda see t1

Maybe falcons

[mental vine]

And internationally top 3 for both of them

[static pond]

Falcons can play sym comps

[mental vine]

t1 can’t lay a scratch against twisted minds

[static pond]

Every other teams lacks

In kr

[static pond]

Tbf Nether could cr n falcons last year

[mental vine]

You know the funny thing is… to beat a Korean u got to play a Korean character

Under tvnt

Lmfaoooo

[static pond]

It wast really that tho tvnt n tm hitscan we’re really good

Burn

But*

[mental vine]

Bro tvnt was dominant

In dva

Tf u mean

With the new Logitech mouse out now I wanna see how people play

[mental vine]

Oh yea superstrike

Mhm bunch of csgo pros switch to it

Makes sense for owcs too

My friend also has that

[static pond]

I wanna get it but I prob wait for a clone

I was thinking about getting razer

But to many mouses they have lol

[mental vine]

They have the most sane mouses

[static pond]

He can’t say much

[mental vine]

Ik

[static pond]

There force usually to play wkth certain mouse

Same with csgo

[mental vine]

True

God 2026 is gonna be a good year for ow esports

Honestly 2025 was a sleeper

[static pond]

Some players are force with mouse due to sponsers or behind door money

[mental vine]

2026 might be the most enjoyable year for ow esports since 2024

[static pond]

Csgo has issues like that a lot

[static pond]

Ngl my hopes aret high

There no English stream for kr

I don’t even think they stream to twitch

[mental vine]

Doesn’t matter

It’s not about the commentary

It’s about the gameplay

[unreal sonnet]

yes

[mental vine]

Only Japan covers it on Twitch

[static pond]

They sign with a web thing kr version of twitch

[mental vine]

But i really don’t care about the language

[static pond]

Ngl it kinda ass tho

[mental vine]

I care about gameplay footage

[mental vine]

Yea it has delays

[static pond]

That site gets like peak 109 views

For one stream😭

Kr owcs might be cooked

No faceit ether

[mental vine]

I really don’t care about the platform

[crimson idol]

[static pond]

YA EXACTLY

I DINT SEE WHY THEY SIGN THAT SHIU

[unreal sonnet]

idk cuz im korean and i watch on soop shit or watch irl cuz stadium is right in front of my house

[mental vine]

When Twitch was a lot superior

[crimson idol]

[mental vine]

Oh fellow Korean fr???? Let’s go brooo

Now THATS something I don’t know

Korean food don't hit the same, we got hella unregulated chemicals

Sorry Korean American food

Important distinction

[mental vine]

I bet yo agrees with me cuz I breathe with Korean food

[unreal sonnet]

i eat korean food daily

[static pond]

Americans change shit to much from the original source

[mental vine]

Me too

Constantly

And spiritually

[crimson idol]

There's a way to do fusion correctly, and it's just not consistently done so

[mental vine]

VERY important

[static pond]

But team vision had a vision

[mental vine]

In the past yes

[static pond]

Nah there noodles taste like just oil

[sullen berry]

Just oil

[static pond]

BRO I HATE THAT PLACE

There noodles ass

[mental vine]

Panda Express who?

[static pond]

I legit go to a family own restaurant to get Thai food

Cost more but way better

[mental vine]

Even po from Kung fu panda makes better noodles than that place

[static pond]

They have something called pad kra po

N boba drinks

[mental vine]

And he is a fictional character

On top of that

Anyways summary: huge zeta upgraded roster and yea 2026 is gonna be fun

[static pond]

Gang I just want me esports loot boxes

[mental vine]

I want zeta skins now lmfao

[static pond]

Tbh I wish they made esports battle passes

Like 5$-10

[mental vine]

TRUEEEEE

not loot boxesss

[static pond]

Where you can get some cool esports stuff

Rivals does it a lot

Small battle passes

[teal hare]

Zeta t1 and cr gonna be the best 3Korean teams now
Hanbin back found broken in back alley of kingsrow

[sullen berry]

Mealgaru feels like he's finally being promoted to top tier tank thanks to this roster

[static pond]

I like the loot boxes tbh

I just wish they made small battle
Passes for the prize pool

[static pond]

I forgot they had a other tank lol

[sullen berry]

I dont really want a battle pass to grind, but if Twitch All Access Pass features ever happened again or even esports exclusive emotes (that should really be universal) I'd buy them during the regular season

[static pond]

Nah like a permanent battle pass

Once you buy it you own it

[sullen berry]

I lowk had it the other way round and forgot about Bernar LUL

[sullen berry]

I dont really know what would make an esports battle pass worth it 🤔

[static pond]

Mmmm

Maybe make them for each teams?

Throw the sprays n like one skin keychains n such

[sullen berry]

I also dont really know where this would go, but China has its own circuit that they announced called RADIANT

Interestingly, its subtitled

[static pond]

Ngl it be cool to get a tracer emote of snapping her fingers summoning blue fire for Dallas duel

[static pond]

Ye I saw that

I stopped watching china

Hard to watch

Sucks cuz I really liked that milk tea team

Still kinda pissy owcs mess up there logo

Well blizzard

[sullen berry]

They don't make it frictionless, sadly. Even wanting to buy premium streaming features doesnt give anything of value to the broadcast, all the premium features are paywalled by Bilibili

[static pond]

Bruh

Lame

[sullen berry]

Surely they'll get it right a second time

Not really, just their version of YT Premium is pretty shallow

[sullen berry]

[mental vine]

[sullen berry]

[mental vine]

[static pond]

Ist that finn

[sullen berry]

He just needs to stay in the region just like how they adopted by boy edison

[static pond]

He like part of both regions lmao

[sullen berry]

Finn should hopefully plan on bostering Japanese pride during OWWC

Like there are a few candidates for Team Japan already

[static pond]

Team Japan might be cooked

[sullen berry]

But you really have to watch the playoffs and a little bit of regular season matchups to see who actually stands out

[static pond]

Sucks cuz Japan does a lot for esports

In a lot of games

[mental vine]

Easily the best 4 people to come together to do like a podcast sit down

[sullen berry]

Fortunately, we have the technology (not 100% accurate, but good enough)

[static pond]

Talking about that auto translate?

Been trying to turn that off

[mental vine]

Yeaa… about that….. lmfao

[static pond]

It always automatically on when I watch jjonak

I hate it

[mental vine]

Taiyo must have been star struck by those three

[mental vine]

Well yea!!! That’s the whole purpose of it: showcasing THE top stars in that team

[sullen berry]

Oh i only mean the summary feature, not that garbage autodubbing while im trying to learn a language and they change it to English

[mortal cipher]

No not Crusty

[prisma atlas]

[glass sleet]

Where the hell does zeta have all this money from

I can’t think of a game where they’re not struggling
