[gentle crane]

hacks exist

[toxic yacht]

cs and cod iirc

iirc it wasn't even both of them who hacked in both games

[clever wagon]

https://twitter.com/n_K0e/status/851206783796465664 Context 404 but I'm absolutely sure this is esports related

[toxic yacht]

but they're a packaged deal

[rapid oxide]

👀

[vestal mortar]

Unless it's proven and somebody is banned, I don't think any current pros are active hackers

[toxic yacht]

gankyou wot

[vestal mortar]

👀

[pine star]

Lmfao

[rapid oxide]

[pine star]

grapeKAISER

[vestal mortar]

Oh yeah, Kasier and his grapes haha

[gentle crane]

my battlenet is DieKaiser

[clever wagon]

Wow

[gentle crane]

🤔

[clever wagon]

Offensive much

[vestal mortar]

Are you esports related?

[gentle crane]

what team does kaiser play on

[toxic yacht]

runaway

[rapid oxide]

for the moment

[gentle crane]

its a pretty common screen name though

[rapid oxide]

he got western offers

probably TSM

[clever wagon]

AuTSM?

[spring lintel]

Why was harryhook playing as lucio?

Wtf

[gentle crane]

I read that they have nice pink sweaters

[rapid oxide]

since they are close to sign a Korean pkayer

[gentle crane]

harryhook always was support

[clever wagon]

HarryHook was Lucio before he S76 for NV

[toxic yacht]

harryhook was lucio because of how good he shotcalls

[rapid oxide]

https://www.over.gg/3304/team-solomid-seek-an-effective-solution-to-roster-woes

[gentle crane]

I dont really like TSM as an org anymore

[spring lintel]

Back then no one knew he was a godly 76?

[gentle crane]

they only really care about their league team

thats where the moneys at

[rapid oxide]

well... i dont like them too because they kick ajax for no reason

[pine star]

Inb4 TSM

[rapid oxide]

it is surely tsm

trust me

but it's pretty retard to mix koreans with western

language barrier is high

[gentle crane]

many koreans know english I think

[rapid oxide]

not really

[vestal mortar]

Kaiser's English is so good though

[gentle crane]

They learn either Japanese or Chinese and then english later on

[toxic yacht]

kaiser speaks english fluently

[rapid oxide]

but only kaiser

[spring lintel]

Korean are pretty westernized

[pine star]

They did know

[gentle crane]

thats their education system

[pine star]

They ran single support with Harry on Soldier a couple times

[gentle crane]

My friend from korea said she learned chinese really young in a choice between chinese or japanese

and later learned english in high school

[pine star]

and Chips on Mercy

[solid spear]

I mean I don't know Effects level of English but I imagine he can speak it if it's even a consideration

[vestal mortar]

Ryujehong on Mercy

[rapid oxide]

i think some knows it but they refuse to

[gentle crane]

well its like hearing an european union team comms

so many different accents

[solid spear]

If TSM is smart though

Which they probably aren't

[pine star]

Spoiler: They are not

[solid spear]

They'd grab my boy Skipjack

[vestal mortar]

Skipjack yes!

[solid spear]

Was one of the best Reins in the game when he was playing

[pine star]

tfw Skipjack still exists

[gentle crane]

they dropped their top tier cs team

[vestal mortar]

tfw Skipjack still doesn't have a team

[gentle crane]

because they started to lose randomly

and now they are a top team with their own player owned org

[rapid oxide]

I want to see how pit will turn when lucio patch will hit

[solid spear]

Same

[vestal mortar]

Oooh yeah

[pine star]

Rip dive?

[rapid oxide]

@vestal mortar not only skip 😢

[gentle shuttle]

tfw Skipjack and Art1er still don't have teams

[solid spear]

Surprised people aren't talking about it

[vestal mortar]

Grego too

[gentle shuttle]

aye

[solid spear]

Such major implications on the meta

[rapid oxide]

Talespin

[toxic yacht]

tfw grego is still teamless

[rapid oxide]

Reaver

Calvin

[vestal mortar]

I cry everytime

[gentle shuttle]

that dva pick btw Sojum ❤

[solid spear]

Twoeasy

[pine star]

Let's make a tier 1 team with free agents

[toxic yacht]

ah, you know the source?

It's pretty good

[gentle shuttle]

nah

[rapid oxide]

Well... They kinda did it

[gentle shuttle]

ye i like it

[rapid oxide]

But failed

[gentle shuttle]

who was on it?

[vestal mortar]

Benchboys part 2

[rapid oxide]

Flat Earth, bench boys

[gentle shuttle]

ah

[pine star]

inb4 2easy kicked

[gentle shuttle]

lol

2easy...

[gentle crane]

well in ranked there are players better than pros

just mechanically not

in a team setting

[rapid oxide]

But this time 2easy want an established team

[solid spear]

Twoeasy will eventually be responsible the creation of half of OW teams

[rapid oxide]

Not create

Reunited, Faze and Laser kittens

[vestal mortar]

Hehe

[pine star]

Half his tweets are he complaining about not having a team

[thorny locust]

its been too long since i watched esports

[solid spear]

He really wants one

[thorny locust]

ive only been playing for a couple days but i like the game so far

maybe ill start watching stuff

[pine star]

The other half is random nonsense about bo7 and why it makes the winner random

derp

[vestal mortar]

👀

[pine star]

@thorny locust watch some APEX vods

[solid spear]

@thorny locust stay in here and check out upcoming tourneys

Fun stuff

[thorny locust]

where can i watch those @pine star

[pine star]

twitch.tv/ognglobal

[vestal mortar]

Yep, we are fun and like esports stuff

[rapid oxide]

@thorny locust over.gg to stay updated of upcoming tournaments/matches

[vestal mortar]

^

[thorny locust]

cool, thanks

[pine star]

^what Vace just said

[thorny locust]

which vods should i watch from apex

[pine star]

Every Meta Athena one

[rapid oxide]

Mod should change the desc with gosu, overgg, liquipedia

They are usefull

[pine star]

Also most of the playoffs

And both semis

[thorny locust]

should i play more before watching the best players in the world? im only like level 10 or 11

[pine star]

And of course the finals

[rapid oxide]

Suggested LW Blue - Runaway

[solid spear]

Nah watch em

[pine star]

Watch em

[thorny locust]

okay

[solid spear]

I've been watching since beta when I couldn't even play

It's good

[rapid oxide]

You learn a lot of stuff from pros

[pine star]

I started following OW esports and lore before I bought the game lul

[vestal mortar]

Yeah I learned most of what I know from watching tourneys etc

[rapid oxide]

At the beginning i was first lore and i dismiss thr esport because chaotic

Then i changed mind

[thorny locust]

yeah i was told to watch people like surefour, taimou, iddqd

[vestal mortar]

I am still pretty bad though but that doesn't matter >_>

[solid spear]

Yes watch my dad

[thorny locust]

because so far ive been playing a lot of dps and those guys play them a lot apparently

[pine star]

If you like DPS watch TviQ from Misfits

[toxic yacht]

if you're into hitscan then watch those guys

although surefour plays everything

[thorny locust]

my 2 most played i think are soldier 76 and genji

[rapid oxide]

Soldier: harryhook

[thorny locust]

which is like two hours for each lol

[rapid oxide]

Grmji: whoru or haksal

[pine star]

Genji = Shadowburn, WhoRU, Haksal

[toxic yacht]

soldier and genji sounds like tviq, although he doesn't play that much 76 on streams anymore

[gentle shuttle]

Polo put me onto this other Genji last week

[pine star]

TviQ has dem 76 footsies

Necros?

[gentle shuttle]

don't think he plays for a team, but the guys a monster

yeee

[toxic yacht]

necros?

[gentle shuttle]

that's the one

[rapid oxide]

Tviq soldier is decent, nothing impressive imo

[pine star]

Too slow Sojum

[toxic yacht]

not a fan of him, I think he's cheating tbh

so I can't really watch him in good faith

[gentle shuttle]

mmm he could well be

[thorny locust]

okay ill watch those guys too @toxic yacht @pine star

[solid spear]

An underrated Genji player who streams more often than some of the guys mentioned is agilities

[toxic yacht]

his ults make no sense to me

[gentle shuttle]

i've only seen one clip so far

[solid spear]

He's easy to catch and plays tons of Genji on stream

So he's reliable

[rapid oxide]

You want someone truly underrated?

[pine star]

Yeh Agilities is good

[gentle shuttle]

yea i've always liked Agilities

and Ultimawep

[pine star]

He does some nasty Hog too

[thorny locust]

havent played much roadhog

[solid spear]

He's a dps you'll play him eventually lul

[thorny locust]

isnt he a tank?

[gentle shuttle]

the way Necros uses the enviro for his ults

[pine star]

Hog a tank

[gentle shuttle]

shits insane

[solid spear]

Yeah he is but he plays like a dps

Which is why a crap ton of dps players have a hog/play Hog

[gentle shuttle]

lol thats hte one im watching right now Polo

wait he does have a team

[pine star]

Good ol' Captain Planet articles

[gentle shuttle]

The Cult

[balmy wolf]

Ye i said this back when I first posted it

[rapid oxide]

"god"

[gentle shuttle]

i forgot 🐷

[thorny locust]

should i go right into comp when i hit level 25?

[balmy wolf]

yes

[pine star]

No

[thorny locust]

pls

[rapid oxide]

No

[solid spear]

If you're comfortable with it

There's no real yes or no

[thorny locust]

okay

[balmy wolf]

Just go in asap and learn

[pine star]

I say wait for level 50, get a better game sense and learn the maps

Then hop in

[balmy wolf]

better to play ranked to learn how to improve than play quickplay

[solid spear]

If you don't feel ready you don't necessarily have to

[gentle shuttle]

i agree with @cobalt forumcSullivan#2402

wth happened to the @ system :C

[pine star]

It's fucked up

[rapid oxide]

Join ranked to be stomped? No ty

You don't improve of u get stomped

[balmy wolf]

Why would you be stomped

[solid spear]

Well he'd be playing with players of similar skill

[balmy wolf]

When you finish your placements you will play with people at the same skill level

And ranked is a better learning envrionment than qp

So if you want to get better at the game, play ranked

[rapid oxide]

Depends

[pine star]

Depends, yeah

But still, just do what you feel confortable with

[thorny locust]

in quick play im up against people in the rank 3000+ but also players at like 1800 or 2000. seems pretty random

[solid spear]

Idk I mean I was well past 25 when comp came out so I can't use personal experience but it doesn't hurt persay

[rapid oxide]

You can try do a bunch of placement

[solid spear]

Just feel comfortable don't feel pressured to jump in

[rapid oxide]

If you get stomped/dont feel comfortable , you can do them later

[solid spear]

Quick play mmr is different

[thorny locust]

mmr is matchmaking rating?

[solid spear]

I've literally played with people from silver-gm there

And yeah

[thorny locust]

cool

[gentle shuttle]

woa

[gentle crane]

I honestly dont know how Ive played like 100 hours of quick play

[gentle shuttle]

i knew a Genji main called ZeRo in game...

[gentle crane]

its so bad

[gentle shuttle]

don't think it's him tho

[solid spear]

I've only played quick play lately cuz ping issues and disconnects in college lately is scaring me from comp

It's meh but yeah

Zoro it probably isn't lol

[thorny locust]

i should play this arcade

already getting sick of these default skins lol

[balmy wolf]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dht0oGFsNPY#t=2m51s

man

rip 8s dragonblade and ledge boost

[gentle shuttle]

naw its not him

[solid spear]

I always forget are you EU?

[gentle shuttle]

yea

[solid spear]

Yeah no chance then lol

[gentle shuttle]

🐷

[balmy wolf]

who are we talking about

[solid spear]

Not relevant it's alright

[balmy wolf]

seagull?

[gentle shuttle]

nun

[balmy wolf]

seagull has like 3 alts and they're all gm

[solid spear]

Someone from another game

[balmy wolf]

o

[solid spear]

Not important

[toxic yacht]

one of seagull's alts also plays tracer

he basically confirmed it indirectly

[thorny locust]

btw

whats a smurf

[rapid oxide]

another account

[thorny locust]

oh

[rapid oxide]

😃

btw is it worth watching OPC?

or i shouldn't waste my time?

[gentle crane]

@thorny locust its usually a second one though

main + smurfs/alts

people usually will spend money on their mains and smurfs are just for gameplay

[thorny locust]

why buy another account

[gentle crane]

people want a fresh start

or to destroy low rank players

[pine star]

@rapid oxide it has been stomps all around so far

Lot's of 3-0s

[gentle crane]

or even to queue with low level friends

[rapid oxide]

or if they dont want to play with friends and stay away from them, since there isn't an offline mode in battlenet

@pine star thank you sweety 👌

[pine star]

yw bb

[vestal mortar]

To practice characters that you are not good at and not affect your "main" rating
Or pros and streamers use a smurf to play without getting swamped by fans/focused by the enemy team.

[thorny locust]

okay

i was called a smurf in game once so i was wondering

[rapid oxide]

[vestal mortar]

[pine star]

[rapid oxide]

people have to talk shit to justify their poor performance

[thorny locust]

wow, ive played this game less than i thought id had

grand total of 3 hours lol

[vestal mortar]

I love esports 👀

[rapid oxide]

but the real problem is

WHEN IS THE NEXT BIG NA+EU TOURNAMENT?

[pine star]

OWL

[rapid oxide]

no

[pine star]

[vestal mortar]

World cup 😭

[rapid oxide]

:c

🦉

[gentle crane]

world cup is the only ow tourney I watch

[pine star]

[toxic yacht]

ok

[rapid oxide]

[pine star]

WC is an exhibition

[gentle crane]

watching

overwatch is boring to me

i dunno why

[toxic yacht]

wc is an exhibition when it's convenient

lul

[rapid oxide]

[gentle crane]

but playing is alot more enjoyable

[vestal mortar]

[gentle crane]

compared to watching

[pine star]

[rapid oxide]

[toxic yacht]

when tehre is a good match it's a super good tournament

when it's AUS vs SK it's just exhibition

[vestal mortar]

Then I am afraid this channel might not be the place for you my friend

[pine star]

AUS vs SK

Nanoboosted Symmetra meta

[gentle crane]

I'm more into e sports of different games obviously

[rapid oxide]

but this is not general esport

its ow esport : )

[gentle crane]

but I am technically interested in esports in general

[pine star]

This is Overwatch esports

[vestal mortar]

We only discuss Overwatch esports

[rapid oxide]

well.. did you give a try atleast?

[gentle crane]

I used to watch

[rapid oxide]

or you instatly dismiss it?

[gentle crane]

when the game came out

quite often
watched alot of gosu monthlys

and etc,

but around s3?

I stopped

it was boring to me

[rapid oxide]

well... now matches are better (for me atleast)

[vestal mortar]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[gentle crane]

and if I do watch I'll try and watch my favourite teams

but still not always

[rapid oxide]

who's ur favourite?

[gentle crane]

I used to like complexity

for harbleu

[rapid oxide]

well.. . even csgo have shitty matches

[gentle crane]

but since hes on NRG

NRG would be my favourite

[rapid oxide]

every esport have terrible matches

and amazing matches

[gentle crane]

issue I had with overwatch was because the meta was so stale

[rapid oxide]

or boring one

[gentle crane]

beyblade

[rapid oxide]

meta is not stale right now

[gentle crane]

thats what really put me off

[rapid oxide]

the only 98% pick is lucio

[vestal mortar]

[rapid oxide]

every hero is below 50%

rein is not a mandatory pick

ana too

[gentle crane]

also I used to read this monthly (?) post on reddit about OW competitive

[vestal mortar]

Dive is so fun to watch 👌

[gentle crane]

but I havent seen that for a while

[thorny locust]

why is lucio picked so much?

speed?

[rapid oxide]

yes

[pine star]

Speed is broken

[toxic yacht]

sped

[solid spear]

every hero isnt under 50%

[rapid oxide]

healing is meh, his damage is meh

the 2nd reason is sound barrier

[solid spear]

but yeah meta is less stale

sound barrier isnt even it

[rapid oxide]

according to cpt

[silk linden]

speed boost is an ability without drawbacks. The existence of that ability basically forces people to run Lucio to level the playing field

[rapid oxide]

60%

[solid spear]

cuz like

all the support ults are broken

[rapid oxide]

what veex said

we need an hero to slow down ppl

or negate auras

[silk linden]

lol no, that would make Lucio even more mandatory

the negate maybe

[pine star]

tfw Zen ult is broken, but bionade (not an ult mind you) is so broken it completely negates it

[rapid oxide]

that's true

[pine star]

[rapid oxide]

ana ruins overwatch

[solid spear]

haters smh

[silk linden]

I like how the most broken ability in OW is almost the same as the most broken weapon in TF2

aka the jar of piss

it's always jars of piss that break games

[gentle crane]

ana made me stop watching overwatch

[solid spear]

well the most broken ability in OW is speed boost lol

[rapid oxide]

2nd is jar piss

[silk linden]

I still think nade is worse

it does 4 things

[pine star]

Yeah

[silk linden]

on low cooldown

[solid spear]

it singlehandedly has made one character a 100% pick for the entirelty of the games existence

[pine star]

Damages, heals, boosts and debuffs

[silk linden]

and has the furthest throwing distance in the game

[pine star]

ON A FREAKING AOE

[solid spear]

there is nothing better than speed boost

[silk linden]

speed boost is good, but it didn't fucking break the game

it's a different kind of broken

[rapid oxide]

im ok with speedboost

antiheal is boring

and op af

[pine star]

Blizzard fucking loves it tho

[clever wagon]

But antiheal is the counter to Zen

[rapid oxide]

i would like a heal reduction, and keep the anti heal for a future ulti

[solid spear]

Its still the best ability in the game if that ability alone makes a character 100% picked through every patch regardless of what changes around him, that in itself is so ridiculously centralizing werejust used to it

[clever wagon]

The only counter, even

[silk linden]

"let's make a hero based on aim and accuracy... and let's also give her a projectile with the range of a catapult that does aoe damage"

[rapid oxide]

there's no counter for jar piss

[mint sky]

d.va

[rapid oxide]

only cleanse will make it counterable

lol

[mint sky]

defense matrix it

[solid spear]

well Zarya bubble

[rapid oxide]

zen ulti

[solid spear]

is basically a cleanse

[rapid oxide]

on himself

[clever wagon]

Bubble yeah

[silk linden]

does bubble cleanse the nade debuff?

[solid spear]

yes

[rapid oxide]

suicide

[clever wagon]

Yes

[silk linden]

cool

[clever wagon]

Recall.. though only for Tracer herself

[rapid oxide]

suicide=cleanse guys haHAA

[pine star]

The reason the nade is so fucking broken is there is almost no fucking counter play once it affected you

[silk linden]

yeah

[gentle crane]

inb4 overwatch adds summoner spells

[rapid oxide]

sombra emp+cleanse? 🤔

[silk linden]

well same could be said of discord orb to an extent

[solid spear]

I mean discord orb counter is

run away and hope you dont die

[pine star]

It'd be good if some abilities like Zen ult or Mercy left clic made the effect be reduced for like 50%

[silk linden]

yeah, same with nade

[solid spear]

I know I agree with you

[rapid oxide]

well... zen have nothing to defend himself nor healing himself

zen is pretty balance

[silk linden]

yeah, at least discord orb does 1 THING

NOT 4

[pine star]

Zen is the squishiest squishy that has even squishied

[silk linden]

not really

[rapid oxide]

he's easier to kill compared to ana

[silk linden]

true

[vestal mortar]

Dive on Zen and he is rip

[rapid oxide]

he can't sleep you

[silk linden]

unless he can headshot

[rapid oxide]

nor health deny

you are gonna die 85%

[pine star]

Even Mercy can survive more than Zen

[silk linden]

how much does a discord+ball to the face do?

[solid spear]

like 120

[rapid oxide]

46 x orb

[silk linden]

as a flanker, I find it easier to attack mercys than zens, zens are like prickly porcupines. But it might be 'cause at low levels Mercys are often out of position

[vestal mortar]

I would consider a dive would be more than one character jumping on and focusing Zen, he can't kill a Winston+Tracer/Genji+Tracer/Winston+Genji

[pine star]

Exactly 119.6

So 120

[rapid oxide]

where did you get that infos?

[pine star]

http://overwatch.gamepedia.com/Zenyatta

+some math

[solid spear]

its just

math

lol

[vestal mortar]

Ana could 'nade a diving duo and sleep one and potentially 1v1 the remaining character

[silk linden]

yeah

while nading herself to top her health

[rapid oxide]

but one orb do 46 damage

[solid spear]

correct

[pine star]

46 * 2 (headshot) = 92

[solid spear]

2(46*1.3)

[rapid oxide]

oh, you included hs

[pine star]

92 * 1.30 (discord) = 119.6

[rapid oxide]

i thought bodyshot

[solid spear]

oh lol

he said to the face

[pine star]

Well, he asked for a discorded ball to the face lul

[rapid oxide]

missed it

2nd fire on zen is so nice now

i did a lot of kills with it

[solid spear]

but yeah Zen gets raped so hard by dive that he has to be stupid powerful to ever run on defense anymore

[vestal mortar]

Same, it's so good!

[solid spear]

like he used to be

[pine star]

#GiveZenWallRide

[vestal mortar]

[rapid oxide]

#RemoveAnaFromOW

[solid spear]

haters

smh

[rapid oxide]

2 season were cancer cuz of her

[pine star]

tfw you secretly main Ana

[solid spear]

lol

Zen was just as cancer its just people like dive so they didnt care as much

[soft jetty]

When the fuck is there going to be something exciting to happen in competitive overwatch

The last major tournament was december

[pine star]

The last major tournament ended 2 days ago

[balmy wolf]

wut

Who are all these uninformed people coming in here complaining

[soft jetty]

APEX wasn't major for NA

Or EU

[pine star]

So?

[soft jetty]

Envy sucked

[vestal mortar]

Suddenly people!

[toxic yacht]

you can blame OWL for that

[pine star]

It was a major

[soft jetty]

Lemme rephrase

[toxic yacht]

Blizz made an announcement that killed the game's momentum

[blazing parrot]

[balmy wolf]

Comes 7th

sucked

[vestal mortar]

Yeah people are waiting for OWL

[toxic yacht]

also, nV got rekt by 1 semi and 1 finalists

lmao

[soft jetty]

When is the next major NA/EU tourney

[vestal mortar]

World cup? Or if something OWL related is announced for the Autumn. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[limber pine]

@soft jetty Overwatch PIT still going on now

[soft jetty]

Its just so lame espicially because people want to see new rosters for teams

Like NRG

[balmy wolf]

The OW Rumble is the next major tourney

For NA

[rapid oxide]

Im with jacob

[vestal mortar]

You can see that this weekend >_>

[rapid oxide]

We want Open or Atlantic Showdown

PIT is meh

[vestal mortar]

When is the next LAN, does rumble have LAN for semis/finals?

[rapid oxide]

Im tired of shitty little online tournaments

[soft jetty]

Exactly

[rapid oxide]

We want a fucking lan

[soft jetty]

LAN tournaments are what get this game attention

[toxic yacht]

NGE was in january

[vestal mortar]

I think your initial question should have mentioned LAN 😛

[pine star]

We need a west LAN, I agree

[rapid oxide]

Online tournaments doesn't get viewers

[toxic yacht]

it was trash, but still a major LAN

[rapid oxide]

NGE > Carbon tho

[soft jetty]

Carbon sucked

Lol

[rapid oxide]

I found the day after they did the final lol

[solid spear]

to be fair to Carbon despite the level of teams at least the production was solid and the casting was good

[rapid oxide]

Didn't even know they were on playoff

[solid spear]

I mean look at PIT

great teams

but mediocre production andd casting

[rapid oxide]

Heurix is ok imo

I dont like joshy tho

[pine star]

I don't like Heurix

[balmy wolf]

joshy is the only good one

[rapid oxide]

XD

Nice

[vestal mortar]

[toxic yacht]

I want Uber and Jkap

[balmy wolf]

Jamerson is alright i suppose

[gentle crane]

also is HuK still a caster

./analyst

[rapid oxide]

kek

[pine star]

HuK still exists?

[gentle crane]

fuck that guy

[rapid oxide]

What shocked me

[toxic yacht]

HuK was at MLG

[gentle crane]

but he was really good at starcraft

[toxic yacht]

he was at every Major major

[gentle crane]

like really good

[toxic yacht]

ESL, ELEAGUE and MLG

[balmy wolf]

He was at every Premier

[rapid oxide]

Is that he's the kinda manager of Toronto esport

[toxic yacht]

he wasn't at the tourney that literally had premier in its name though

[gentle crane]

really annoyed they took huke + poke over rofl

roofl

[toxic yacht]

roolf is in c9

[gentle crane]

hes canadian

sorry talking about world cup

[balmy wolf]

Thy had roolf

[toxic yacht]

they had roolf

roolf, poke, surefour, huk

[gentle crane]

who did he replace?

[toxic yacht]

and 2 other dudes

[rapid oxide]

No more huk in wc luckily

[balmy wolf]

ID and Logandebest aswell

[gentle crane]

I remember roofl saying he didnt make it

[toxic yacht]

aah, thank polo

[balmy wolf]

Roolf replaced Whiz

[solid spear]

over the likes of Chu, Agilties, etc

[gentle crane]

AZK is canadian also right?

[pine star]

Wasn't HuK shitting on my boy ZP?

[balmy wolf]

because Whiz didnt respond to requests documentation

[toxic yacht]

no, HuK vs ZP was just joking from them

it wasn't funny banter though

but they're gucci

[pine star]

I bet they just covered with the whole "it's just banter" thing

But HuK was salty

[toxic yacht]

HuK should just never have brought up the rank (which wasn't even true, btw. ZP and HuK were both at 70-80 SR)

70-80 is a massive range with a giant skill difference, but they're SRs were somewhere there

in S1

[pine star]

Yeah well

I hope he's not on the desk @ wc

[toxic yacht]

I don't mind him

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[balmy wolf]

I want Reinforce again

[toxic yacht]

he's too busy playing this time

hopefully

[pine star]

If Jake doesn't make it to the roster I want him on the desk

[toxic yacht]

I'll be salty af if he doesn't get in

[pine star]

The guy's a pleasure to listen to

[vestal mortar]

Lottoforce!

[balmy wolf]

Ster Analyst pls

🙏🏻

[rapid oxide]

Flame analyst pls

[pine star]

Flame's a really good analyst, but he needs to work on the way he speaks

He's not fluid at all

[toxic yacht]

he needs to kinda shrink his ego

[pine star]

Not gonna happen

[toxic yacht]

but I'd love him as an analyst

[rapid oxide]

What sojum said

The first sentence

[pine star]

His ego is bigger than all of us

There's no such device that can shrink it

[rapid oxide]

I don't like ppl with big ego

I'd be salty though

[rapid oxide]

i wont be

ill be happy with 0 western team

[pine star]

Yeah

I want to see new Rogue against KR tho

[toxic yacht]

one one hand, I love seeing western teams going up against KR

and it also makes western teams improve, a lot

and makes them good at 2cp

on the other hand, it takes them away from their local scene for up to 3 months

which is annyoing

[pine star]

That's the part I don't like

[limber pine]

[balmy wolf]

same

[toxic yacht]

it's still unfinished

but I like it

[balmy wolf]

what phone do you have?

[toxic yacht]

basically, you can follow teams/tournaments

[rapid oxide]

i uninstalled upcomer

[toxic yacht]

motorola moto g 2nd gen

[rapid oxide]

because he spoiled me matches

[toxic yacht]

but it's also on IOS

[pine star]

Moto Z

[toxic yacht]

you can disable results

[balmy wolf]

lmao @rapid oxide

[toxic yacht]

it also spoiled results for me

[pine star]

I hate iOs with passion

[rapid oxide]

time ago i wasnt able to

[vestal mortar]

I just check over.gg every day ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[toxic yacht]

had to look for the option to disable it

[balmy wolf]

I use the Score ESports

[toxic yacht]

yeah, the app is still very much in development

[rapid oxide]

you can use strafe

[toxic yacht]

kinda retarded that it'd roll out without a spoiler feature

[balmy wolf]

over.gg is nice

https://www.over.gg/

this right here

[pine star]

Yeah

[balmy wolf]

if anyone was wondering

[pine star]

I want an app tho

Upcomer looks nice

Kinda

I'll test it

[balmy wolf]

go for it

it shouldnt hurt

[vestal mortar]

Make your app then 😛

[rapid oxide]

strafe is a good alternative

have also bet

[balmy wolf]

Ill make a app, aslong as I get admin for it 😛

[toxic yacht]

Gosu must have an api, right?

that I can access for this shit

if not over.gg maybe

[balmy wolf]

maybe

[toxic yacht]

upcomer must be getting its shit from somewhere

[pine star]

I said I may just make an app under the assumption that Gosu has an API lol

Do they not?

[toxic yacht]

I'm also assuming that they have one

[pine star]

lol rip

[toxic yacht]

https://www.npmjs.com/package/gosugamers-api

well, this works too

[pine star]

This Upcomer app looks really nice and polished

[toxic yacht]

yee, it is

I'm really liking it

luckily it had the fucking spoiler option when I got it

[rapid oxide]

upcomer spoiler you the result!

[balmy wolf]

ooh its nice

[toxic yacht]

it should be enabled by default tbh

[vestal mortar]

oooh!

[balmy wolf]

@vestal mortar did you check it out?

[toxic yacht]

it's retarded that the default option spoils results

[pine star]

"Choose your favorite teams"

proceeds to tick basically all of them

[toxic yacht]

kek

go to options and disable results

[balmy wolf]

same

[toxic yacht]

the moment it lets you

it'll save you a lot of anger

ik money

[balmy wolf]

yep

[rapid oxide]

but hate a game will still bind you in mediocrity

[balmy wolf]

I'd play a game I hate if I was making money off of it

I'm a broke college student, of course I would

If you love your work, you do the work better

Won't blame him

What's why I said before that we need a serious lan

Bring some team in kr will harm the scene more imo

[toxic yacht]

you can thank blizz for announcing the OWL a year before doing anything

seriously killed the momentum of the scene

and broke EU

I understand why they did it so early

but being more concrete would have allowed people to plan tournaments until the league kicks off

now we had like, 6 months of majors that could have been held without interfering with the league

[silk linden]

lol, the game is young, people need to chill

[rapid oxide]

Try to be the ceo of nip

[pine star]

Yeah

[toxic yacht]

I'm mostly salty at the death of EU thanks to this

[rapid oxide]

You are paying this guys to dont play

[pine star]

You're not the one pouring money into a team

[toxic yacht]

and being the CEO of NiP

I'd also be scared af

[rapid oxide]

He could possibly disband the team

For lack of tournaments

Sure, G2, TSM and maybe SK are still interested

But... Its still unknown

Everyone is waiting

The ROI is pretty low for NiP

[pine star]

One year from now we'll all be laughing at this and speaking of just how fucking genius the guys over at Blizzard are

Hopefully

I mean right?
