yeah
When you realize Nanohana won't get actual POTM because of the broken POTG system
FeelsBadMan
genji carry
Flank 5k hooks carrying
evermore hook
WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS HARD 5K HOG CARRY

THEY GOT BOTH

EVERMORE bitchslapping Nanohana with his total hard carry across 2 cap points
dat panic deflect
LOOOL
That was a very late push
Evermore total hard carried over both points, Nanohana + SBB didn't make it for LWB haHAA
Whats the relation between uncia and panthera ?
Are they like sisters team like hammers
yee
With Loyal ironically falling apart :/
Evil is hammers right?
While Evil roster stayed together ever since -bird noises- days
EVERMORE
You can't help but give props to their loyalty and dedication
lol
LUL
evermore had none of that
Lol
pharah and mercy dicking around behind enemy lines
He was 1v1 a mercy
I was busy explaining the greatness of LG Evil roster
evermore hooked the pharah
wtf
What 5k
inb4 another hook
I am still at 1:40
5k as in SR
they all 6v1nd him
Yeah i know

LW Blue nearly got full held, damn
I just realized that profpic is fucking Dio and Bastion
it was my first discord avatar, lol
made it during the period between beta and release
when we were all dying because we couldn't play ow for 2 weeks
Flower has not had much contention in 2nd
Yeah
OH MY GOD
THEY PULLED A C9
THE C9 CURSE CONTINUES
STRATS
THIS TEAMFIGHT WAS THEIR WIN
APEX IS CURSED
WHO WAS THE TEAM AGAIN, IT'S NOT C9 ANYMORE
LMFAO
A c9
WHO LEFT THE PAYLOAD LAST TIME?
Classic

NO C9 MEME IS DEAD, THERE'S ANOTHER TEAM THAT DID IT IN CARBON
Fuck
Who was it
There's another team in Carbon that also didn't touch the objective
LGL
Ah yeah
it also happened during the world cup
LGL STRATS ECKSDEE
Janus is so fucked
LUL
if LW
Lucio mains
Lw blue is kinda tilted

LW Blue is so tilted
Yeap
Yeah rip

Wakawaka Evermore Rascal just going off

Wow
THat was dominating

Reverse sweep? 
if they get reverse swept
@balmy wolf you need to watch this match
when you wake up
I just wanna know how Bling killed the tele like 20 seconds after it came up
lmao
LUL
Haha
I get it
Pretty much whoever wins this is in the semis
Really both of these teams are already in the semis
Damn is lunatic hai that powerful
????

Awesome they are playing hanzo
Scatter arrow 
Hanzo needs a bit small buff for his survivability
Evermore asserting his 5K by bullying
Torb OP
R I G G E D
250 dmg headshots, 75 x 6 dmg scattur, sonic arrow and he needs another buff???
STEEL joined LW Blue
No he's not
Yes he is
Fl0w3r just has low hit rate on him and forcing it with barriers + DM around
Man
NA graviton
There was zero follow up to that grav
And Fl0w3r also didn't take a safe distance either but sticking with the tanks
If LW Blue gonna lose Eichenwalde like RNG did today

Yeap
NA Visor
Why'd you ult behind three of your tanks?

LOOOOL
THE PLAYS
LOST LIKE RNG DID
HELD BEFORE THE BRIDGE
Reverse Sweep thanks to throws
I feel as if Janus is getting outplayed by Fissure's mindgames
LW has mental problem
I think Flower's better than Rascal
Janus is getting outplayed by not checking corners
The tilt is real
I wish APEX put the pov on the supports
Like, ever
Please
We have no idea how well they're doing
remember how faze won that one koth round vs fnatic?
faze
fucking faze
checked corners
kek
The reverse sweep is so real
oh god, this is so 
omg
LOOL Fl0w3r
Rip blue
Man this is exactly like LGE RNG
Reverse sweep with roughly the exact same finishing spot before the bridge
EVERMORE
[ENG] OVERWATCH APEX S2 ENERGIZED BY HOT6 - Meta Athena VS. Afreeca Freecs Blue | Kongdoo Panthera VS. LW Blue - Clipped by planet_shaper
PANTHERA STILL HAS 4 MINUTES
the payload is alone
rip
THE THROWS
LETS FUCKING GO CHAMP
oh my goodness
Evermore's hook on Gambler
It's done. Evermore hardcarried more than Fl0w3r and SBB combined from Hanamura onwards
Wtf loyal v evil
No questions asked
Who knows
Pff
5k shouldn't be max
Why he is good
he abused his way there
blizzard allows it because their system is fucking idiotic and means nothing at that rank
It's their system
they want to make a combine with the OWL
when you can do shit like this

this is the type of shit you do to expose the flaws in a system
because they're dumdum
Similar to fifa pro clubs
that's what literally every otehr game does
Really?
Oh
no one takes your group SR seriously
But they should?
CSGO Doesn't sojum
That means u can oppose Astralis or VP stacked
Also... SR rating is just 1/4 of what you need for combine
They are not retards... I can cheat until i get 4500
And get an invite? Nope
Which match? @toxic yacht
lw blue vs kd panthera
the match was 👌
also, kinda hilarious because of... something
which I won't spoil
it was good ow again. Much better than AF Throw vs Meta Flankena
evermore was insane too
pretty sure that it wasn't, but I also wasn't really using csgo as an example for that since the need for something like soloQ is much lower in cs due to the nature of the game. I mostly meant DOTA and League when bringing up the comparison, but yeah, ESEA doesn't iirc
Yes, you could clutch play and 1v5 but CSGO is a team based fps too
As you can mcree 4k
gauging individual performance is 10000x easier in csgo than in ow though
tbh I mostly want seperate SR so that I don't run into stacks anymore
I really hate stacks
and of course the whole owl and evermore thingy
I usually dont encounter stacks unless I stack
I ALWAYS encounter stacks
But im master so I'm a pleb
1 in 6 games doesn't have a stack with me
admittedly, that massively relates to the time at which I play
which also impacts the quality of my matches, but I don't really get to play at any different time
I mostly play at night
mostly in the evening with me
aka when most people come back from work/school
hence the amount of toxic/useless people
and stacks
mostly 18-20 hours
@waxen root any particular reason why teams often nanoblade when they know that soundbarrier is up and they don't have enough time to kill lucio? I've seen a too many nanoblades wiff because they combo into an obv soundbarrier. Is it because people expect to outdamage the ult an kill the supports? Same thing with trans, although you can at least kill people outside of zen's radius/kill 250 hp heroes with a dashcancel
not knowing whether soundbarrier is up? maybe thats their only 2 ults
not sure
probably happens to us aswell
Oh, I thought that there was some magical reason behind it
I should stop reading into shit this much
I see pros using Genji's RC from further away than I would. Like, at a rage where only one shuriken would hit. The faster fire rate is worth it?
Depends. Better in some situations (like spamming at people bunched together), worse in some. It's a lot like positioning, you can't really explain it. You kinda get a feel for what to do when
My feel is to do it much closer than I've seen pros do it, I guess I'm wrong on this, to each their own though
Wow there are alot of amateur tournaments around.
Blizzard's two-day gaming convention is approaching: BlizzCon will return to the Anaheim Convention Center in California on Nov. 3 and 4.
Tickets, priced at $199, will go on sale in two batches—first, on April 5 at 7pm PDT and later on April 8 at 10am PDT. Fans can expect lots of announcements and information across all of Blizzard's titles. Last year at the fan event, Blizzard announced its new competitive Overwatch League and finally revealed new hero and Mexican hacker Sombra.
Details on the event have yet to be released, but each BlizzCon often highlights all Blizzard franchises—World of Warcraft, StarCraft, Hearthstone, Diablo, Heroes of the Storm, and Overwatch—alongside competitive tournaments, panels, and cosplay events.
if i recall correctly, combine will start before blizzcon?
maybe we will get a smaller tournaments
with already owl team?
Combine?
CIVIL WAR CIVIL WAR
Also, 3 matches today. Wonder what makes today special
Aa hm
IMT v RNG
Yee boi I forgot carbon's schedules are in user local time zone
So convenient
Whats the score?
They usually start at >1am for me
My boys Liquid grabbing a map from IMT
Slowly improving
This guy said that evil would win easily
Wat
Which guy?
oh
Yea
I thought you were talking about one of the analysts
He is a fanboy
because you said "this guy"
when 2b hasnt said anything in hours
And yeah they probably will take it fairly easily
Lul
Hopfully they get fukd
Hidan on Zen
Nah they won't

Esp with Eissfeldt gone
Flippy on Widow
Why'd they get rid of Hqrdest but keep Realzx
Shit widow
If they did then I rest my case but it probably won't happen
Right, they also said Flippy is actually one of the best scouts in TF2
Damn
RIP mic
LUL Train's shot
Train dude
wut
Spree on Pharah 
Well, this is an interesting matchup
Ube was a great player
Why'd Flippy go to Tracer when Evil has a Torb
That was an amazing flank, wow
Rip loyal
If Loyal or Evil won the entire tourney LG would still get the prize money
Full held without overtime
How the hell did they not call him out?
Well
Advantage of having 2 teams in one tourney

Yeah, but it's not gonna go to the org, but also to that specific team, as well, mostly
Doesn't Jake also shotcall? Or is he just the "official" captain for the roster and someone else shotcalls
If he also shotcalls then he's doing beyond goddamn well alongside his DPS job
But it does go to the org though @nocturne sable
To the org, not the other team
I never said the other team?
Nobody said other team

The org and the winning team
Yeah
OH
That's what I was saying
So both LG teams still wanna win
I know?
I was saying it from Luminosity's POV
Incase that wasnt obvious from how I said it
Yeah
Well
Well, looks like that's map
Well
And they went dive for the first time, if I'm not mistaken
It wasnt that good
Pretty sure they've gone dive before
Loyal were just shit
Yeah because Evil 7-0 for OCS and runner up as the only team to take a map off Rogue in OMM ain't shit
You can't deny they're steadily rising up to be one of the best in NA, outside of APEX teams
They were just lucky to take a map from rogue
Keep at it dude
I wanna see fusion girls play
They were lucky Rogue could only run dive
And they got beaten by quad tank by surprise
Yeah
and then adapted and destroyed their quad tank via mechanical skill
Phara is so fun to play
THeoretically, a no Pharah dive should be stalled out by a quad tank set up
But she needs better counters
Oh RNG didnt have Sypeh vs Evil
Zen needs a buddy
I wonder if thats why they lost 
Honestly LGE losing that game was because they were throwing harder than RNG
Whoa Voll just melted that Primal Rage wtf
Wtf was that
Was he using Whole Hog?
Yeah
Nope
But still
He wasnt was he?
He was
ah that explains it
He was killed by whole hog
thought it was just a normal shot
But holy shit that was instant
Well we just use "throwing" as another name for "doing really bad" @forest raven
because no team is actually ever throwing
Dva's matrix is such a good ability
If you throw in a tournament with money, you're kinda dumb
I havent seen the game so I cant really comment
It was so much fun
Lol poor Ube
Intense as fuck because of the dumb shit they did
So I feel that might have done it
Well, considering LGE didn't run a McCree against Manga's Pharah until like game four...
Yeah
The most famous throw, imo, was iBP in csgo vs a tier 4 team @nocturne sable
THey ran McCree when Manga wasn't playing Pharah
Mangachu was a beast on phara
So they bet on the other team
Yeah, but that's with gambling
and threw to get money
If we ignore that
Well i mean
If someone pays you to do it
It's easier money to throw than it is to try and win
And you get payed in CS:GO skins, too
Lol
LGE
Maybe on org or another team or something
LGE
idk
Wtf

lol
What are these stupid mistakes
Loyal throwing harder than i Buy Power
Lord what is happening

Lucio speed made that possible
"Let Evil win it's good PR"
"Do it or you're fired"
That stupid self destruct
when you guys say throw, is it actual throwing or just bad plays?
Bad plays
oh ok
Omg
Wow
Here it's a meme because LGL and LGE are sister teams
Just why
Scripted
just say bad plays, throwing is different
Evil just lulled them into a false sense of security
No
Fuck
BOYS THE SCRIPT IS STARTING, PLACE YOUR BETS NOW
It's very rare to see someone say "throwing" to refer to actual throwing
Mostly because actual throwing at high level in any game is a rare thing
ZP and Hex berating Loyal real hard
LG CEO called Hidan and was like "throw this series and we'll get you and Spree some Koreans"
If they threw a blizzard at the spawn
LOL
team effort throw
But then again, honestly it was weird
Team effort to win the game for PR
That could have been intentional
Evil's trickling game was hard all the way up to the last minute
That was not the Evil that stomped RNG's spawncamping yesterday
Fuck i hate rein
LG want Evil to win all the matches
Looks like it
Is this Evil's first tourney?
Well, makes sense, then
And before Hammers they were -bird noises- without sponsor, I believe they have been running the smaller tourneys since OW release
I know Selfless won Enter the Arena, but who came 2nd
Won't it be easier to just use gosu match history?
RNG @forest raven
Ah
Wtf was that
No? @clever wagon
Since they stayed together from -bird noises- anyway, and they all showed all the matches iirc
Cant wait for NRG dude
You cant tell what tourney it is from that tiny box
I showed bird noises anyway
They need to hit big bang
to win
lets see if they throw it
Big Bang?
Graviton + Pulse Bomb
Okay well
They hit it
but it was only one kill

Well they got it anyway
Jake showing his age

he almost had emp too lul
it was at 82 lol
Oh geez
not like emping then would have helped at all though
If I'm not trying my hardest to be rational, I'd probably be calling that unironically rn
what
HA he said easy
You said it was gonna be easy
Buuuut
Evil cant win now
HA they lost
Awesome

Just a banter
Okay sorry
Reminds me of Envy
Didnt think you were this sensitive
That's not the usual Evil game anyway
if its makes you feel better Im aCLG fan kap
Just about everyone wanted Envy to lose on their winstreak
I already said they trickled real hard, and I know that's gonna cost them
I am an NRG fanboy because of seagullll and iddqd
who is Seagull
seagull best gull
but hes not a top Genji 
Although shadowburn seems better but he doesnt stream and I dont know how good he is
seagull plays more to the team
continue to watch tournaments 😃
i think?
Yes
Well
Seagull isnt a good enough genji to let his team play around him
Team Russia, FaZe without 2Ez...
Without Shadowburn I doubt FaZe would be where they are
And now Seagull's got them friends
Because they work with his Genji so well
SDB never had an equally excellent roster to play on the same footing up to this day
And the 200 ping
Also seagull probably isnt even top 5 genjis
I feel like when Seagull plays Genji, he's acting as the "support" dps to idd, when he's playing Hanzo, it's the opposite
Why do so few players besides the Gull play Hanzo in pro games?
He's too inconsistent, in comparison to heroes like Pharah, I guess?
Because inconsistent
yep
Big bargain
You have to have a very good Hanzo
For it to work
And if you have a good hanzo but just not good enough to run in matches
I haven't seen many Hanzo players, but Seagull does legit seem like one of the best Hanzos in the world
no point in practicing a strat with him in it
because others are better
And yeah he definitely is draw
Hanzo and Pharah are top tier
It was him and Talespin during the Pharah meta, right?

I'm interested if NRG will use the idd on Hog, Harb on Zarya and Gull on Hanzo comp
hopefully
I just want to see Seagull trying his Hanzo in actual pro scene
He's used it before
With the new NRG that is
seagull seems to have fun with hanzo
but when he really is trying hard he goes genji
Do we know who's casting the Pit, yet?
Loyal got the advantage
Do my eyes deceive me ?
Loyal are winning
What is this madness
Poor super
Super feels alone
And they're just jumping in without pokes for ult build first
That's also weird
And Loyal just gave that up so easily
Even worse
Scripted ?
Or I'm just overanalyzing this shit
Honestly? I don't know
At this point
See? Another one
This makes sense
Give evil the lead
Act like they are losing
Lg evil would honestly take the money
Jake taking the Pumpkin Man title from NiCO?
Rob is online in this server btw

@versed gate NICE THROW
they were down 2-1 yesterday
All of Evil must be wearing iBP stickers on their foreheads
They need their skins
Scrimming in a pro match = throwing @spring lintel
Rich enough
Yeeeeah
LG is undoubtedly one of the bigger orgs, yeah
Well then it's just obvious
What the actual fuck https://puu.sh/uJgFf/07b60c7685.png
Lol
I like the middle guy the most
The one on the left literally knows jack shit
The one on the right is alright
Dude on the left is the presenter
I have seen the two casters give the left guy a look that says "really? We just talked about that"
JKap and Uber number one ofc
ofc
Wheres jkap?
JKap and Ster #3
Oh nvm I am dumb
ster?
He was a really good caster and analyst
the ster?
yee
It's refreshing to see someone talk rather good about Ster after seeing him being flamed either jokingly or seriously everywhere else
why's he flamed
But then again, back at MLG where he's at the desk I can't say much since I didn't know much about the pro scene yet
Lol
Flamed because streamer
10/10 defense
Streamer on team USA
implying streamers can't be pros
People blaming him because the only person who wasnt a pro
Indeed
Ster's a WAY better player than Muselk is
pft
Muselk isnt pro
ofc cant be the pros fault
Yeah they didnt scrim at all
Reminder that he did try to get the team together only to met with "TOO COLD baby rage"
I am not sure how the hell did he get on aussies team
That was the reason they lost
i know
If they scrimmed at all
They had a good chance at winning
Im not really surprised though
I wouldnt be motivated for no prize
for the motherland!
Ster and Jerma are just the most down to earth internet pair
@spring lintel that's what popularity vote gets you
The fuck is happening
I'll say hell will freeze over if Zylbrad wasn't chosen if Blizz decides to use popularity vote again
Omg jake
Jakes just like "Okay, it was fun playing"
It's like evil got a contract to only try to win the last push
Yes howhurl
Wait i dunno
anyways
No idea about mccreamy
overwatch worldcup was a huge advertising tournament
Wtf is this match
Evil stomping
doesn't matter
LGL 2 - LGE 1?
Evil's constant trickling in previous maps
Is this shit scripted?
Come the fuck on
It looks like it at least
We ALL know Evil could win this way better than with RNG
You're not going to convince me that the best team in the tournament is having a "close and competitive match" against the crap that is LG Loyal
And then Evil went with this constant trickling, going in without poking for ult build, etc
This is bullshit
I think they might have been paid to "take it easy"
LG VS LG LUL
Well, I've always seen Jake and co as a team with solid principles
Lol suddenly evil are steamrolling loyal
I really hope they're holding that up, and I'm not wrong to think about it
Yeah no fucking shit
This actually makes no sense
I may just need to go back to the VODs
Now loyal will take it to the last point and evil will win this game by holding the last point <drama acting
You'll see DMC
Because I'm sure as fuck there's going to be some obviously intentional throws
Even the casters are just baffled
Tell me Evil is not trickling hard and weird decisions once you watch the vod
There isnt @pine star
At least before Gibraltar
Nothing obvious
Look at my comment above
@balmy wolf I do not believe you
I bet it's gonna happen
I'm tilted rn

Polo, pls put some angery emote for me
Lol why did hammer join lg anyways?
@spring lintel money and sponsorship?
They can do that with 2 teams?
I'd say LG wanted another team and could easily buy out Hammers contract
It's a bit suspicious
As I have said before Now loyal will take it to the last point and evil will win this game by holding the last point <drama acting
Remember what I am saying
I'm not gonna go straight to "it's rigged" - most likely LGE is in a bit of a slump, and the introduction of Flippy is really helping LGL out
Superplunk
Yeah not fully rigged
Flippy's widow is 
But "go easy " rigged
Also Hidan playing a lot of Zen, the hero which he carried Misfits on his back at Dreamhack
Yeah I said it at the start of the series
Omg this match
Hidan Zen 
Lol
👋🏻
I don't even want to see it
But Evil did full hold with Loyal using that comp in Hollywood @forest raven
@_@
They are throwing ults
o7
And then all these stuff kept happening to this moment
Flippy with his Widow allows LGL to play the high dive, which means Hidan can flex to Zen
flipp the pro wido
LUL
I mean tons of orgs have two teams in KR so it's not "new" just not common in the west.
Evil throwing harder than iBP
FUCK I'm so tilted! Tell me this is still the roster that won January AMM, runner up of February and got to the 6W 0L for Carbon.
yeah it's a pretty good strat really
you can have the two teams scrim against eachother and practice secret strats
LOL

collusion lul
But in an actual match @edgy remnant ???
that's what a lot of the two team orgs in korea did, atleast in leeg
I mean Afreeca Freecks, and KD have two teams in APEX.
They got double the prize money from lg
Even if this is actually "scrimming" and not "scripted" I don't understand how is this good showing for either teams
Overwatch teams are inconsistent. I'd say it's a combination of LGE falling into a slump, which was seen yesterday against RNG a bit, LGL finally gelling with each other, LGL being able to run the high dive because of Flippy's skill on Widow which allows Hidan to flex the Zen, and Hidan is one of, if not the best Zen in the world
Thats what the KR Sister teams are doing in OW too @edgy remnant
Loooool the casters
yeah that's what the main benefit of having a sister team is
LG Evil also probably didn't play dive much. If you watch podcasts, Jake always talked about enjoying being able to play multiple strats that WE'RENT dive.
"I'll be very surprised if last place LG Loyal wins against first place LG Evil"
Hex gets it
So maybe Dive is just "newer" to them.
That would give the Sister team an advantage against the other though no?
Evil are actually trying now
Being the only team knowing their strat
Yeah, when Rogue ran dive LGE just went to quad tank because that was their "comfort picks"
Lul
LGE has little experience with dive
I don't know personally but does getting into a slump makes you make decisions like trickling, getting in without pokes for ult builds, etc?
ALL LOYAL
This is not the same team that played the other rounds lmao.
A L L L O Y A L
Well
They're busting LGL open lmao.
That's what I've been saying since after Hollywood map
Watch them full map cap lmao.
Okay this is rigged
With overtime extended respawn for LGL.
They didn't change the atk-def I was confused
Cause that's in now.
LOL they are gonna full cap
To be fair, even Vs. Regenades, LGE looked very iffy Monday.
I'm seriously gonna ask ZP or Hex in Twitter DMs probably lol
And not like the same team.
What they think about this
So it has been a couple of days case.
When your CEO says go easy and win in overtime
They played imo a bit more scattered vs RNG

Lmao this full map cap is hilarious.
Both teams trickling hard now
LOL
"Yeah him, fuck you guys".
They're trickling in turns
hum*
my lord lmao
lul
I may just calm down an enjoy this comedy
