[rapid oxide]

But who knows

[forest raven]

Hanging around people like surefour, ryb, Adam and Roolf seems pretty fuckin chill tbh

[vestal mortar]

Haha true

[pine star]

Surefour is obnoxious af

[forest raven]

Surefour and Mendo was the best bromance in ow

[rapid oxide]

^

[pine star]

But he seems kinda chill still

[rapid oxide]

I don't follow him for this reason

[forest raven]

I love surefour tbh

[pine star]

Yeah same lol, even tho he's really good

[forest raven]

He's really chill

[vestal mortar]

Surefour 💖

[pine star]

He suddenly starts moaning for no reason

[forest raven]

Surefour tilts for like ten seconds in the moment and then it passes

[rapid oxide]

Like Taimou

"i never tilt"

[jovial eagle]

and then there's seagull

always saying what he did wrong

so often that i think

can't you just

you know

not do wrong things

[rapid oxide]

I dont like seagull simply because is over rated

But he's chill and a nice guy

[jovial eagle]

his playstyle caters to team

he doesn't want to carry, but he could

[pine star]

[jovial eagle]

that's how i see him

[forest raven]

Seagull plays one of the best pharahs in the west, maybe the world

Same for Hanzo and Mei

[rapid oxide]

[jovial eagle]

mei yes

hanzo most likely

pharah

he has a few contenders

[balmy wolf]

He said one of the best

[pine star]

He's still one of the best

[forest raven]

For sure, but they don't outclass him

[jovial eagle]

im sleepy heh

[forest raven]

It was him and talespin in the pharmercy meta

Also surefour

[rapid oxide]

And Valkia

Mangachu is good too imo

[forest raven]

Yeah mangas really good

But he's far more of a one trick

There's also Hydration

[balmy wolf]

Valkia

[toxic yacht]

pls, let's not act like taimou is satan

[vestal mortar]

Give me OMM now

[toxic yacht]

literally everyone on nV can get along with him no problem

[rapid oxide]

Dude he's top 500, have some respect

[toxic yacht]

and tale was also a cunt in that

tbh

[rapid oxide]

[vestal mortar]

[toxic yacht]

he just refused to board the flight

that was booked for him

without any previous warning

and just abandoned his team

also without any warning

[rapid oxide]

What cringe me the most is top 1 ana gale adelade

[toxic yacht]

I'm sorry, but if someone can do that I sincerely doubt that taimou was the super bad guy

[balmy wolf]

Well the "not super bad guy" drove the "super bad guy" to do that

so

[rapid oxide]

dae taimou satin

[balmy wolf]

satin is a nice fabric

[toxic yacht]

there is really no indication that taimou was being toxic. He was saying that taimou wasn't as dedicated to praccing as him etc, but if you say that taimou isn't dedicated after what happened at MLG then just... lol

we aren't getting the whole story here

so I'd not be inclined to act like taimou is satan and talespin is an angel who couldn't a handle his toxicity anymore

taimou just happened to be mature enough (I know, Taimou mature lmao) to not drag tale's name through the dirt

[forest raven]

So it looks like eunited and laser kittenz ( ) may be in season 3 of apex

But it's all unconfirmed for now

[toxic yacht]

if it's laser kittenz than I can just :reimufacepalm:

rip emote

[solid spear]

Lol

[balmy wolf]

[forest raven]

Both are bootcamping in Korea after pit and alicus was the one that said teams have already confirmed their attendance

But still, laser kittenz in apex

[toxic yacht]

re-invite rogue

get selfless

dunno

but fucking LK

lol

no offense, but there could be much better teams there

eUnited is gucci

[forest raven]

Maybe they were invited but declined for whatever reason

Maybe rogue doesn't want to miss out on going head to head with NRG, envy and c9

[frank frigate]

Hi everyone, I just posted this week's Meta Report https://www.reddit.com/r/Overwatch/comments/64qy1l/overwatch_hero_meta_report_a_trip_to_the_pharmercy/

Looks like Pharah and to a lesser extent Mercy are creeping back into the meta, thanks in part ot the ana nerf. Let me know what you think in the comments or by @ -ing me here! I'll be a bit slower responding this week though because work is really busy

[rapid oxide]

Draw, i said that first

[forest raven]

[vestal mortar]

[forest raven]

[solid spear]

Ana 53% 🤔

Probably go up again with Lucio changes tbh

[vestal mortar]

Oh yeah jaysus that's different

[rapid oxide]

@frank frigate why you delay that much on reddit and here btw? I read that earlier this morning... You need approval?

[gentle shuttle]

sup playas

🐷

[solid spear]

Hiya

[vestal mortar]

👋

[clever wagon]

complains about taimou not practicing
"hands too cold" when ster asked the USA team to scrim in WC

Yeah, Talespin is a "professional"

[balmy wolf]

Ster said Talespin was the only other motivated person

[clever wagon]

Heee

[gentle shuttle]

That's the way i heard it too Polo

[clever wagon]

K, my mistake

[balmy wolf]

It was everyone else who said their hands were cold

and went to play diablo

[solid spear]

I mean were probably never gonna know the full details of what happened with Envyus

[rapid oxide]

That is included Seagull

[quasi python]

wait laser kiiten in apex ? fr?

[rapid oxide]

So seagull is not professional

[solid spear]

So I'm not gonna sit here demonizing Taimou or even Talespin

[clever wagon]

Still not too professional when you flat out resign from team mid-tourney and specifically wrote a personal attack on twitlonger

If you're "professional" then you'd keep out personal issues out of your public announcement

[jovial eagle]

i find it quite odd that that people will still like certain professional gamers despite of their antics

[clever wagon]

Putting it there just makes you look like the saltiest person on earth

[jovial eagle]

in other sports similar athletes won't be given any attention

[solid spear]

You're wild

Bad dudes in sports get love all the time

If they're good enough

[clever wagon]

And he's being so roundabout with it too

[jovial eagle]

...i was thinking about tennis

rip

[solid spear]

Tennis oh

[jovial eagle]

yeah

heh

[pine star]

Gods on Rein and monkey

[solid spear]

I don't watch that rip

[jovial eagle]

i need sleep

[clever wagon]

But Tennis is not esports

[pine star]

[clever wagon]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[solid spear]

Nah he was making a sports comparison

[clever wagon]

Yeh

[jovial eagle]

gnite lads, gl on the event that's coming soon lul

[clever wagon]

I was joking

[solid spear]

Oh lol

Good night fam

[clever wagon]

But anyway

It'

[solid spear]

Dream of

The McCree skin

[clever wagon]

Honestly Mercy Bot would find more use in PCMR discord weeb channel

Just to deal with every other person who drop in just to say "weebs"

But back to esports

[solid spear]

Weebs

[frank frigate]

@rapid oxide to answer your question from earlier, it's to hit reddit at peak NA viewing time rather than at like 6am EU time when I usually finish writing and post the article

[rapid oxide]

Fair enough

[limber pine]

Day 3 of the EU region playoffs of the Overwatch PIT Championship is live!

TODAY'S MATCHES
18:00 CEST: eUnited vs Misfits Makeup Game from Yesterday
20:00 CEST: Vivi's Adventure vs Singularity Ninjas
21:30 CEST: Dignitas vs Lazer Kittenz

Watch at https://www.twitch.tv/overwatchpit.
View bracket at http://overwatchpit.com/schedule/.

[toxic yacht]

It's starting in 7 minutes according to a twitch mod I think, because the delay is 10 minutes

I'd keep it open in another tab or something

[limber pine]

potato potato

[balmy wolf]

that doesnt work in text chat

[limber pine]

sure it does

[viral umbra]

It works if you intend to say potato twice.

Speaking of potato, servers stable today? kek

Game starting

But I don't want to ping anyone.

[toxic yacht]

my internet was out

@balmy wolf

you're awake this time, right?

[viral umbra]

It's pretty even so far.

[toxic yacht]

caster is fascinated because a pro has good aim

feelsgood to see tviq and reinforce play against the ReU people again

[rapid oxide]

EnVyUs has talked about adding a possible 7th member to their roster and we all know envy is currently lacking a projectile player. Mickie has been starting to pick up Genji and we've seen him play Genji in a couple pro matches but their still missing a pharrah player. With pharmercy being so strong and getting used more in pro play I think envy is trying to find a pharrah player to fill the hole talespin left. Taimou has been duo queuing and placing mercy with popular pharrah twitch streamer Valkia. I'm wondering if they might be trying him out for the team. I'm my opinion Valkia is a better pharrah then magnachu or Jake but we've haven't seen him in any pro matches like the latter two. I don't think Valkia has any pro experience and as it's been said in the past, twitch streaming can be more lucrative then going pro so I'm not sure if he even would want to to go pro. This is just some speculation I wanted to share with you guys.

HAHAHA 😂😂😂😂😂

[viral umbra]

That wall of text. lol

[rapid oxide]

Read it, it's worth

[balmy wolf]

yee @toxic yacht

[toxic yacht]

taimou has actually been learning pharah

[balmy wolf]

Man reinforce

Not playing winston for once

[viral umbra]

REINforce

[toxic yacht]

Reinforce's winston is sexy

[balmy wolf]

L T T F R C E

[toxic yacht]

I love this emote

thank mute

[balmy wolf]

i made it >:c

[toxic yacht]

yee, but mute provided the image

but yes, you made it

[rapid oxide]

Why lottoforce?

[toxic yacht]

"nevix doesn't need an ultimate so far" yeah, because deadeye is so famous for getting kills

best offensive ult in the game, amiright?

[viral umbra]

bestest.

Those Genji moves tho.

[balmy wolf]

Kruise Genji > Nevix Genji

[viral umbra]

I'm easily impressed with good Genji plays, so don't mind me.

[balmy wolf]

They could have staggered even more tbh

he was one rmb dash away from death

[toxic yacht]

nevix

[balmy wolf]

wtf

[toxic yacht]

you could have dashed into zen

then you'd have lost less hp

[balmy wolf]

Did you see that?

[toxic yacht]

and gotten a reset

[balmy wolf]

One of them missed

[viral umbra]

Yeah.

[balmy wolf]

Like not even a noreg

It didnt even hit

[toxic yacht]

yee, I know

[balmy wolf]

wtf

[toxic yacht]

it's easier to miss a slash than you may think if you and the person are positioned in the right way + movement

[balmy wolf]

Yeah but like

he was right infront of him

[toxic yacht]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

sweaty balls/hands

[balmy wolf]

fix genji blizzo pls

[rapid oxide]

Nevix is average tho

[toxic yacht]

nevix

[balmy wolf]

Zoning nanoblade

[toxic yacht]

nevix 100% wasted his dash earlier

and probably didn't communicate that properly

lol

[rapid oxide]

Kek

[toxic yacht]

got nano'd in a suboptimal position thanks to that

100%

[balmy wolf]

https://clips.twitch.tv/TallWonderfulStorkOSsloth

[rapid oxide]

Impressive genji lmao

[balmy wolf]

What a player

[viral umbra]

Yeah, what a waste.

[balmy wolf]

The killfeed is all vallu

[toxic yacht]

tbh I think it's less of a bad ult from nevix

and a bad ult from zebbo

tfw reinforce is trying to carry but his team is too heavy
http://i.imgur.com/njM9LwO.png

[balmy wolf]

The reverse sweep is real though

like damn

[viral umbra]

Been a while since I saw a match that was this much of a back and forth. Although this game is a little more one sided.

[toxic yacht]

I wonder why reinforce was on rein

[balmy wolf]

Damn

4 cards

[toxic yacht]

I was ready for a nanovisor potg

[balmy wolf]

Also 81

[toxic yacht]

and was preparing my complaints

[rapid oxide]

Misfits more like MisGame

[viral umbra]

It's not over yet

[rapid oxide]

This by far is the best meta we will ever had

[toxic yacht]

it'd be more interesting if western teams would be more willing to run something that isn't triple dps

triple dps every match > quad tank or triple tank every match, but I'd like some variety

I'm gonna miss apex, lul

[viral umbra]

The Meta isn't usually known for variety.

[limber pine]

^

[toxic yacht]

well, apex says something else

people there run everything

from triple tank to triple dps

atm it is pretty versatile

[rapid oxide]

Are eunited on gaming house?

[balmy wolf]

afaik they're all just in NA

Not sure if gaming house yet

They might wait till they get back from Korea

[toxic yacht]

pretty sure taht they're still in EU

I also doubt that they'd be this good with 140+ ping

[balmy wolf]

oh right yeah im retarded

They're all in EU with no house

Moving to an NA house after Korea bootcamp

[toxic yacht]

I love how zenys try to bodyblock deadeye with trans

[balmy wolf]

TviQ's genji

jeez

[toxic yacht]

jfc tviq

camera leaves him for a second

and he fucking kills everyone

[balmy wolf]

that sleep

👌🏻

[toxic yacht]

tviq stop

[balmy wolf]

inb4 4k high noon

[toxic yacht]

I hope he stays on hanzo

tbh

tviq's hanzo is god

:(

"rogue is fantastic at defending with triple dps"

pls

they're defenses are crap

[balmy wolf]

Im under the impression they lose on purpose

till 3rd

[toxic yacht]

polo

again

[balmy wolf]

so they get spawn advantage

[toxic yacht]

he missed an ana point blank

kruise

[balmy wolf]

yeah idk what this is

[toxic yacht]

wtf is up with genjis today?

[balmy wolf]

oh shit

that sleep

[toxic yacht]

lmfao

[balmy wolf]

holy fuck that was actually so good though

my god

again

[toxic yacht]

these sleeps

[balmy wolf]

Rubi's sleeps

[toxic yacht]

rubikon stop

[balmy wolf]

are 👌🏻

They wont full hold tho

well

[viral umbra]

Let's play kill the Lucio lol

[balmy wolf]

actually

nevermind

they have ult advantage

somehow

Sleep this nanoblade

[toxic yacht]

🙏 for tviq to clutch

[balmy wolf]

Cmon rubi

do it

[toxic yacht]

lol

[balmy wolf]

Jesus

Christo

[toxic yacht]

misfits throw

[balmy wolf]

I was so confused right there

[vestal mortar]

Wow

[balmy wolf]

Like

It seemed eU used so many ults in that 3rd last fight

But then still had the advantage

[devout topaz]

i can't believe misfits lost

i guess eunited is strong than i though

[balmy wolf]

http://i.imgur.com/F6vKa1u.png

[viral umbra]

lol

What Discord is he in?

[balmy wolf]

Thats twitch chat

[viral umbra]

Oh that was Twitch right

[vestal mortar]

lmao

[pine star]

Misfits lost??

[vestal mortar]

Yee

[pine star]

Rip

And 2-0 :0

[gentle shuttle]

Eunited beat Misfits?

[pine star]

FeelsBadMan

[vestal mortar]

Yeee

[gentle shuttle]

wth how did i miss this

that's pretty impressive

[vestal mortar]

eUnited full held them on King's Row too

[gentle shuttle]

where misfits playing bad or?

o wow

[pine star]

Fucking rip

[gentle shuttle]

front page of twitch 👀

[pine star]

Anyone watching APEX Challenger?

[viral umbra]

Nope, still watching OWPit

[vestal mortar]

I watched some of it earlier

[balmy wolf]

I was so confused for a sec

"Ninjas dropped Lelouch??"

but its just krytox

[viral umbra]

I'm reading the patch is due in like 30 minutes.

[gentle shuttle]

ooo where'd u read that

[viral umbra]

Twitch Chat.

[gentle shuttle]

[viral umbra]

Yeah.

[gentle shuttle]

well it'll be 7pm gmt which is the usual time

so it's probably right

[viral umbra]

Vivi is getting crushed.

[rapid oxide]

https://www.over.gg/3370/reports-indicate-that-rogue-and-nrg-will-be-the-next-teams-shipped-to-korea

[balmy wolf]

Dude pls

Lets go champ

[rapid oxide]

NRG will get destroyed imo

[toxic yacht]

they actually wanted to invite NRG in S2

but they refused

[rapid oxide]

Rogue final

[toxic yacht]

I hope they get reinvited to apac

if it happens again

[rapid oxide]

i want runaway rogue in finals

[balmy wolf]

APAC is happening again

And they have been reinvited

[toxic yacht]

[balmy wolf]

We knew this before Ajax and Harb were announced

[rapid oxide]

so... nrg will get stomped again 😂

[toxic yacht]

ayy, then I probably forgot

NRG didn't get stomped in APAC though

made it to the semis

got 3-1'd by lunatic hai

[rapid oxide]

chinese team are kek

[toxic yacht]

in a game that was much closer than it had any right to be

[balmy wolf]

They're also a lot stronger than before

At least on paper

[toxic yacht]

on paper :(

we were all also mega hyped for clockwork

tfw we all begin to appreciate gods when it's too late

iddqd is a clear cut improvement though, no debate there

[balmy wolf]

I wasnt hyped for him at all lul

[digital pond]

Wait.

Why is NRG listed to go to APEX already?

They haven't even played a tournament x.X

[toxic yacht]

also, having your second dps not be your roadhog and your other off-tank not be your tracer but instead have both off-tanks on one person + seagull who can flex into hog/zarya is a clear cut improvement

[vestal mortar]

I was also not hyped

[viral umbra]

lol @ Lucio Aura

[vestal mortar]

Because I had no idea who he was 😛

[balmy wolf]

They are rumoured to be the ones invited

[toxic yacht]

3 suturaikus

👀

[gentle shuttle]

is it just me who thinks it was kinda a bad idea to schedule the pit for today, knowing it's patch day

[digital pond]

LOL

Sojum with the deep search

[vestal mortar]

[digital pond]

I imagine Sojum has a folder of screenshot for everyone he chats to and he goes through them : "I can't wait to post these, I can already feel the excitement"

[gentle shuttle]

[vestal mortar]

Remind me to never say anything I might regret around Sojum 👀

[solid spear]

is we back

[toxic yacht]

yee

[solid spear]

"If any NA Lucios out there are wondering how to make it, tweet some racist shit, get kicked from your current team, get on a team that hasn't played a tournament yet, get flown to Korea " - Phaz

👀

[toxic yacht]

everyone so salty

lmao

that's what you get when you have seagull on your team

[iron cedar]

Can't wait to see the new lucio

[toxic yacht]

also, RIse Nation LUL

it wasn't even a "racist tweet"

[solid spear]

Double we got to see the new Lucio for like half a game

and then the server crapped out and the match was postponed

[toxic yacht]

anyway, I've stopped taking Rise seriously after all of their whining + that bullshit they pulled with BK Stars and that one xqc team at... rivalcade was it?

[solid spear]

hmm?

[toxic yacht]

https://www.reddit.com/r/Competitiveoverwatch/comments/5vge5c/denial_esports_vs_bkstars_discussion/?ref=search_posts

basically, final nail in the Rise Nation coffin for me

[rapid oxide]

Lucio healing got toned down after ptr (50->30)

And sound barrier is 30m

Seems reasonable for me

What you guys think? Deathball meta or...?

[solid spear]

I mean

I cant imagine it wont be more prevalent with the changes

idk if I wanna say its straight deathball meta though

[forest raven]

So NRG and rogue going to Korea aye

[digital pond]

I mean I doubt teams will ever drop Lucio because he still has speed.

So I'm expect more tanks definitely especially since amp up heal + nana grenade is a bit silly.

[forest raven]

I'm hyped for NRG in apex if it is true. Even if they don't do well, being in the hyperbolic time chamber will help improve them a lot

[digital pond]

Iono I feel like it kinda snobs other teams who are actively playing and trying to get invited.

Especially since no one has seen them play.

[kindred brook]

Wish one of the good western teams went instead of NRG tbh

Seagull gets too much traction from his brand name

[clever wagon]

So NRG is going to apex 3?

[clever wagon]

They should file a public complaint to OGN

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[jovial eagle]

what'd i miss

[digital pond]

@kindred brook Which I find weird with no offense to him since all the "On paper" teams he's had so far kinda didn't work out that well so far.

[kindred brook]

yea unfortuntaely

it's been a long time since Seagull was on a top2 team in the world

[balmy wolf]

Mate Seagull's never been on a team that was Top 2 in the world

[jovial eagle]

so nrg is now seagull, harbleu, iddqd, clockworks, dummy, ajax?

[balmy wolf]

Seagull, Iddqd, Harbleu, Ajax, Dummy and Numlocked

[jovial eagle]

oh ok

[balmy wolf]

Proj. DPS - Seagull
Hitscan DPS - Iddqd
Flex - Harbleu
Main Tank - Numlocked
Main Healer - Dummy
IGL/Lucio - Ajax

[jovial eagle]

i wonder what harb will play

hog or zarya

[balmy wolf]

Both

[jovial eagle]

i mean not at the same time

[balmy wolf]

Obviously

[jovial eagle]

i was wondering if seagull will go zarya for triple tank

[balmy wolf]

Seagull's been seen playing Hog sometimes in scrim montages

So I assume they will switch between Zarya and road

[jovial eagle]

seagull is horrific on hog LOL

[balmy wolf]

We haven't seen him play in months and even when we did he didn't play hog

So you can't really judge at all

[jovial eagle]

i mean in regular comp

[balmy wolf]

Not comparable

And I highly doubt its horrific

[jovial eagle]

compared to his level of proficiency in his usual heroes it is

but yeah it's not bad, but definitely not his top500 level

[clever wagon]

#tournaments @eager crystal

Ask the mods for help

Well fuck you and your shitty tournament too

Nice attitude

@forest raven

[plucky vortex]

pewpew

[balmy wolf]

Thanks scar

[clever wagon]

Thanks a lot @plucky vortex

[reef knoll]

Come watch @Splyce vs @ggenvision in the #Finals of our #Overwatch Weekly NA #8 on @obsidian swanch!

https://www.twitch.tv/livethebattle

[ashen umbra]

Overwatch really needs a replay system. It would help so much if I could watch VODs from one player perspective instead of the camera being on the dps for 90% of the game.

[toxic yacht]

@clever wagon lmao, what happened?

[balmy wolf]

Guy was spamming about his ps4 tournament

after being told multiple times to message modmail

[gentle shuttle]

racist lucio stuff wut

ayt time to catch eunited vs misfits before watching NA's bracket

[clever wagon]

@toxic yacht 🖕🏻 he said this

So yeah, fuck him

[toxic yacht]

topkek

If you regularly check #147153976687591424 you'd also see that he consistently posts about his tournament but gets his messages auto-deletes because of too many spaces or some shit

[forest raven]

Didn't watch them but Conbox 3-1'd RG Wings

[rapid oxide]

PS4 tournament

[clever wagon]

Lul

very insightful

Man I need to be like Sojum more

Screencap anything and everything

Would definitely be useful

[balmy wolf]

sojum

screencapping everything

boi

only if you knew

[vestal mortar]

👀

[rapid oxide]

Dat aussies smh

[clever wagon]

@balmy wolf I have to know, for it is the only path

[toxic yacht]

Polo probably has the entire discord screencapped

Even the convos where he was offline

Also, LGL running quad tank vs LGE makes me cri evry tim

[clever wagon]

What was the resuly

*t

[toxic yacht]

They had to swap out of it

[rapid oxide]

How's matches with new lucio?

[balmy wolf]

None have been played yet

At least i dont think so

[toxic yacht]

LGE vs LGL

was with the new lucio

hence quad tank

FaZe also went Zenyatta-Ana

because new patch

patch went live at 19 CET

NA Pit is like, midnight for CET

[rapid oxide]

APEX Challenger havs live patch!

@Polo#8182

People still use Lucio FeelsBadMan

[balmy wolf]

Yeah challengers doesnt use Tournament Realm

[rapid oxide]

Everything is slower now but its a good thing for spectator

[balmy wolf]

And of course Lucio is still going to be played

[rapid oxide]

Yeah

[balmy wolf]

still the only hero with speed

[rapid oxide]

As i said at grego, the only way to reduce the pick is either remove speed, or a hero that deny auras or a nerf to the ground

1 is impossible, 2 is difficult, atleast soon 3 MAY happen but most likely don't

I miss monte and doa already :/

[balmy wolf]

I miss never seeing Uber and Jkap ever ever never

[rapid oxide]

SO MUCH THIS

Ask jkap for news on twitch but still nope

[sour wraith]

So with the weekly thread in the CSGO subreddits about ex-iBP players getting unbanned, Does anyone really think AZK will go back to csgo?

[balmy wolf]

Doubtful

Unlike steel, AZK is actually good at OW

[toxic yacht]

[balmy wolf]

So he doesn't have to resort to going back to csgo

[toxic yacht]

yee, AZK can actually play the game

[balmy wolf]

Liquid are playing the best OW since their debut

No way he's quitting out now

[sour wraith]

yea it seems like AZK is the only one of the 4 who actually tried another game seriously

[rapid oxide]

Steel lul

Csgo lul

[solid spear]

Csgo lul?

Miuki pls

[rapid oxide]

i find it extremely slow and boring tho

pistols are as good as the primaries

a comp match require an immense ammount of time compared to a comp in ow

[toxic yacht]

well, that caused people to take it more seriously and troll/throw less

because you know that you're stuck with these people for 40 minutes

[rapid oxide]

you were more lucky than me then, because all my matches on csgo were shitty russians and kids that throw... eco every round for awp "dont worry, im like kennys" and then getting destroyed on door in dust2

[toxic yacht]

and due to the leaver penalty being really harsh, they knew that they'd get banned from comp really long if they do stupid shit. So that lead to people not just treating comp like casual. in ow a lot of people play comp and basically treat it like qp with golden guns. 40+ minute games are stupid exhausting, but at least you knew that the chances of running into someone who doesn't take it seriously are really low, as opposed to ow where you find a retard in 7/10 games

oh, didn't read your message, oops

I ended up with a lot of stupid russians too, yes, that was a massive issue

[rapid oxide]

ow should punish a lot people that leave

not 1 hour

[toxic yacht]

I like the cs way

[rapid oxide]

do fucking 12h

[toxic yacht]

1 match is 30 minutes

next one is 2 hours

etc

[rapid oxide]

yeah

on ow iirc its always 30 min right? because i never left a comp

[toxic yacht]

10 minutes, then thirty minutes and a bunch until a season ban

or something

I forgot, I never leave games

[balmy wolf]

10, 30, 1 hour, 3 hours, season ban

iirc

[rapid oxide]

it stack or you are like -leave -10 min -play normal- reset so next leave is 10 min?

[balmy wolf]

Not sure, ive never left more than 2 in a row @rapid oxide

[limber pine]

EU PIT starts early today boys

[rapid oxide]

Like

Exactly now

[limber pine]

hopefully no more postpones tho

[rapid oxide]

Yd because server was overloaded by ppl wanted to try the new patch

It happens with every game

Selfless climbing up the ranks 😄

[dusty surge]

Boo mirror matches

Oh man, first tourney to use the new percentage-based point capture.

[balmy wolf]

3rd or something actually

[dusty surge]

o

[vestal mortar]

Dignitas 😮

[dusty surge]

It feels like there are a lot of DCs in these tourneys.

[balmy wolf]

So Kittenz throwing?

[digital pond]

Rofl this game

And that ending on Krytox

TvIq is going hard

[dusty surge]

Whelp... this is a stomp so far.

[digital pond]

I'm starting to question why nevix didn't DPS sooner.

[balmy wolf]

Because aKm

He used to be DPS

[digital pond]

I mean before him and Zebbo swapped roles.

[balmy wolf]

Back on Graviton Surge

[gentle shuttle]

damnnnit

im missing a game again :c

[digital pond]

Not much of a game right now.

[balmy wolf]

Yeah but its a stomp

Misfits vs SNG

[digital pond]

Misfit is practice ranging on Singularity.

[balmy wolf]

Obviously going to be a yawnfest

[toxic yacht]

because nevix is a hekking good support

zebbo was always the lucio

so he has to learn main support

while nevix has already proven himself to be heking great

[digital pond]

Makes sense.

Although Zebbo is learning fast.

[dusty surge]

Oh man. That percentage thing could come into play here. Should be interesting.

lol no one contesting the point

[dusty surge]

Didn't PIT start out round-robin?

[supple nymph]

yes

@balmy wolf nip vs team dignitas?

[balmy wolf]

why do you keep asking me

[supple nymph]

i dunno... tradition? you are like groundhog day

[dusty surge]

Jesus Christ... this is even worse than the last match.

[toxic yacht]

NiP is finally running their comp again

probably because of the lucio changes

[spring lintel]

Is there a game rn 🤔

[toxic yacht]

yee

https://www.twitch.tv/overwatchpit

[spring lintel]

Fuck is it good?

[toxic yacht]

dunno, I just tuned in 5 minutes ago

[digital pond]

Has Linkzr actually hit something yet?

That wasn't a hog lol

Here we go!

[toxic yacht]

https://clips.twitch.tv/RefinedAmazonianSalamanderHeyGuys

if anyone ever needs an example of why hanzo is so inconsistent

this is a primary example

he was doing nothign (well, a bit of zoning) and then BOOP 2 kills and they suddenly won the teamfight

then he goes on a streak

[rapid oxide]

linkrz better hanzo than seagull confirmed

[toxic yacht]

tfw the camera never leaves linkzr

fragi got fucking nanoboosted

and it stays on linkz

honestly, spectating in this tournament is fucking terrible

it's always on the dps/tracer

[digital pond]

Yeh Hanzo is such a weird hero I've only seen Libero be semi consistant with it

[toxic yacht]

and stays on them too much

[balmy wolf]

Its been like this for ages

[toxic yacht]

yee, I know

[balmy wolf]

All the recent NA tournies have had shit casting and spectating

[toxic yacht]

we complained during the Misfits vs Dignitas match

I've been spoiled by OGN and Majors

tbh

still better than chu's spectating though

[balmy wolf]

lul

[toxic yacht]

NiP on their comp again makes me

I find it interesting how pros often just ignore the 76

[rapid oxide]

lmao

dat hook

[toxic yacht]

kek

[balmy wolf]

That happened yesterday in Misfits vs eU

Unfixed pretty much uncontested the whole time

[toxic yacht]

hymzi did that to kruise

I feel like they often believe that they can just outheal him and feed ana while winning the ground battle since 76 lacks burst damage

but unfixed just shredded the whole team

the entire time

[balmy wolf]

yep

[rapid oxide]

mei is bugged btw

it doesnt slow ppl

not even her ulti

[balmy wolf]

rip

[toxic yacht]

lol

👌

they didn't find anything because it was bugged

apparently

[rapid oxide]

beyblade, we 2016 guys

[toxic yacht]

Fragi is fucking rabid, lol

[balmy wolf]

This mei bug and genji bug

were actually released to live

[spring lintel]

We are back to tank meta rn

[balmy wolf]

fucking

lol

[rapid oxide]

i have faith in blizzard

[spring lintel]

Loved dive 😔

[toxic yacht]

yeaah, lol

genji and mei

were released bugged

lmao

those are both gamebreaking bugs

moreso for mei than genji

[rapid oxide]

if people dont play ptr... 🤷

[toxic yacht]

well, ptr is a waste of time for most people

since the game quality sucks

and no one cares about it

[spring lintel]

Rip dive 2017-2017

[dusty surge]

Wait, the no-slow thing is even against other players?

[rapid oxide]

torille!

@dusty surge yes

[dusty surge]

Heh. What's the Genji bug?

[rapid oxide]

genji bug is noticed already by blizz and they are working on the fix

[dusty surge]

Maybe with Mei being completely broken atm, they'll fix both severe bugs with her.

[balmy wolf]

Genji now only has 6 sword slashes

instead of 7

[toxic yacht]

where is the video...?

guys

wtf

NA production

twitch chat rn lmao

[dusty surge]

lol

[spring lintel]

Lol wtf guys

[toxic yacht]

I'm laughing my ass off irl rn

[rapid oxide]

chill guys

[toxic yacht]

lmfao

this so fucking awesome

[spring lintel]

Me too

[rapid oxide]

consider us lucky we have atleast a tournament 😭

[toxic yacht]

NA spectating

wow

they realized it now

🤦

Bromas Tracer

this is so back and forth lmao

100-0 at all times

but this was the map they won

nice

gg

Linkzr's hooks on Hymzi were 👌

oh fuck it, I'm talking with myself again

[limber pine]

pat pat pat

[dusty surge]

:(

Mei is so broken right now. Pls.

[spring lintel]

Lol why is misfits in this tourney

Linkrz carried that last map btw

[limber pine]

LET'S GO @waxen root LET'S GO 👏 👏

[toxic yacht]

I hope you guys win

[limber pine]

Next match starts now!

gogogogo

[toxic yacht]

here it come

@balmy wolf misfits vs dig

dig beat NiP

btw

[balmy wolf]

noice

[dusty surge]

@waxen root That was a hell of a gauntlet. Did the teams you played against have other games while you were playing? Or did you just play into four fresh teams?

[limber pine]

they're playing now too ceiu

[dusty surge]

Jebus

[limber pine]

vs Misfits

[toxic yacht]

tfw I don't know whom to cheer for

looking at how competitive EU is

makes me wonder how Rogue would do if they were still here

[balmy wolf]

LOL

https://clips.twitch.tv/TriumphantFineChowderTTours

[toxic yacht]

I feel like manneten wanted to bait the deflect

[balmy wolf]

1 min

to match digs time

[toxic yacht]

kek rip linkz

[balmy wolf]

Linkz confirmed

better than tviq

[toxic yacht]

would be nice if they'd actually spectate people using a transformation ult...

[balmy wolf]

Dig with more time now

[toxic yacht]

pls, noob genjis

that graviton was very deflectable

I wonder why no one ever goes for gravton deflects 🤔

you either get teamwiped our you get teamwiped with an 8 second cooldown

[balmy wolf]

LINKZ

CLUTCH IT

[toxic yacht]

wat7 unleashing his inner kaiser

[balmy wolf]

D:

[toxic yacht]

nice one linkzr

lol

well, rip their timebank

if the suit hadn't connected they'd have 1 minute

[balmy wolf]

dude imagine

if they ran a sombra

for backcap

[toxic yacht]

oh fuck

oh my god

I forgot that this is live now

[balmy wolf]

honestly

[balmy wolf]

this is such an easy win rn

[toxic yacht]

this is such trash

lol

[balmy wolf]

run full dive

[toxic yacht]

if dignitas loses

[balmy wolf]

push them back

get on point

win

[toxic yacht]

this is the biggest throw of the century

[balmy wolf]

even if they get off the point

for 2s

[toxic yacht]

seriously, if they don't cap this

well, rip

[balmy wolf]

gg

Dig

2-0

vs Misfits

eU 2-2 vs Misfits

Misfits confirmed succ

The new system didnt even really matter there

[toxic yacht]

ragequit

[balmy wolf]

they would have won anyway

[toxic yacht]

tbh they could have stalled more

with the old system

there would have been a small chance to defend

well, rip comeback defenses now

[dusty surge]

What happened?

[balmy wolf]

Dig won

2-0

[dusty surge]

I mean in-game. Was there a new capture point win or something?

[toxic yacht]

@waxen root gg lol

didn't expect you to win tbh

👍

tbh not capping on KR would have been the biggest throw of the century

[dusty surge]

Why did TviQ say "good rules?"

[toxic yacht]

because of the instacap nonsense

probably

they were forced to defend like retards

[dusty surge]

I didn't get to see the match.

[toxic yacht]

because 1% would have been enough to win

[dusty surge]

Oh, they got full-held?

[balmy wolf]

they capped last in OT

They had no time

[toxic yacht]

nah, dig had a timebank

[balmy wolf]

Dig had 1:04

[toxic yacht]

misfits just barely got OT

[balmy wolf]

I just said that

[toxic yacht]

because dva touched the cart

right before they could win with 0.1 seconds or something

[waxen root]

tviq saying good rules after that cap was stupid

honestly

we full wiped them

[dusty surge]

So they didn't get a minute and the new cap rules took effect?

[waxen root]

we wouldve capped the full point no matter what

[toxic yacht]

yee, you'd have won anyway

well, you could argue that they had to defend like retards

thanks to the new system

[waxen root]

i guess? but that doesnt make sense

[toxic yacht]

but honestly, that was a pretty good wipe

[waxen root]

their supports were untouched until we killed their tank

the supports couldve just as well played in the back

[spring lintel]

Woot

Misfits lost

[balmy wolf]

he's probably just salty

[spring lintel]

Dam son

[balmy wolf]

didnt mean it

[toxic yacht]

yee

[waxen root]

i mean im not saying the rules are good

but i dont think they mattered in this game

the rules are terrible still

[balmy wolf]

yeah thats what im saying

he was just mad and blamed it on the new rules

even though it was just them

[waxen root]

https://twitter.com/TeamDignitas/status/852229449194057730

lmaoooo

[fierce geode]

@waxen root are you the ana player for dig?

[waxen root]

yup

[fierce geode]

that sleep on genji as he was going in for the grav/dragonblade was dirty

[waxen root]

thanks 😃

where was it?

[fierce geode]

last third of KR

on your defence

that push took so long i think there were like 3 of them

3 gravs i mean but from the spectators point of view it looked like tviq dashed right through the grav and into your sleep dart

[waxen root]

alright ill go check

i dont remember, honsetly dont remember anything from the games lol

[fierce geode]

if that wasn't a sleep then it might have been a shatter

the spectating in the pit championship has been pretty tough to follow

either way, well played

[balmy wolf]

He slept a stunned genji

Wasnt exactly amazing, no offence veine

dig twitter cracks me up dude, they got some good memes

[toxic yacht]

All nonsense aside, you guys performed fucking amazingly today

Much better than the disjoined mess from strivewire

Honestly did much better than I'd have expected you to + you beat NiP when they were running their signature comp

[fierce geode]

lol oh yeah he was stunned

[limber pine]

playing three series in 4 hours aint easy

[fierce geode]

winning* three series in 4 hours

[limber pine]

even better

[waxen root]

yee hunter

sleep lasts longer than stun

thats why i did it

[fierce geode]

no i hear you

not saying it wasnt the right play, just must have missed that he was already stunned

still good play though

cc chain that genji all day

off topic but did anyone watch the rogue vs clg game?

[waxen root]

i hit one sleep on nano blade tho

and toxiken finished him

i think on first point kr

[fierce geode]

what map was it?

ah ill check it

atk or def?

[waxen root]

i think atk

[toxic yacht]

nah, didn't watch rogue vs clg

I'd think that it was a complete stomp

so I didn't watch it

[fierce geode]

https://clips.twitch.tv/BombasticDeliciousDumplingsArsonNoSexy this one i assume

wish it wasn't off camera lol

rogue did stomp but THE CASTERS CALLED THEM LG EVIL THE WHOLE DAMN TIME

[balmy wolf]

http://i.imgur.com/82MK4Nb.png

yee stomp

[fierce geode]

how is clg gonna get any recognition if the casters don't even call them by their name lol

[toxic yacht]

jfc

lmao they called them lge?

this is amazing

clg = lge

kek

[fierce geode]

they legit said lg evil the whole time

not clg

not lge

lg evil

like they said it out loud lol

[toxic yacht]

:ReimuFacePalm:

rip emote

this is ridiculous lmao

[limber pine]

you tried

that's all that matters

[rapid oxide]

People could argue for hours but i think dig win was deserved... Blame the new system smh

[toxic yacht]

Dig would probably have won based of Linkzr's picks right at the beginning

yeah, misfits couldn't do a half retreat like most teams would because getting off the point would have lost them the game, but the picks still put them at a severe disadvantage

like, normally most teams would let them get 2 ticks while pushing back and regrouping before reengaging based off all of the ow I've watched

but they couldn't do that, which is arguably "the new system's" fault

but eh, those picks

already kinda fucked them

[fierce geode]

think about it though

if they still had to full cap and didnt

then it'd be a tie and you'd just go to a whole new map

[waxen root]

sojum honestly

retreating on kr 1st point

is the worst thing u can do

u end up in a corner and cant retake point

unless u get ana ult in time

[fierce geode]

they had more than a minute left on the clock by the end which was a minute more than misfits

^

[toxic yacht]

huh really? I've seen a ton of teams do that on KR specifically

[fierce geode]

i mean if you finish with a solid time bank and the other team finished in OT the win should go to the team that got the furthest the fastest

[toxic yacht]

well, the circumstances were different in those cases

[waxen root]

yea sojum

everyone does it

even we try to

but in the end

u just get cucked

[fierce geode]

lol

[waxen root]

because unless ur entire team falls back into lobby

u will just keep getting spammed

if u go through the arch and recharge shield behind corner

[fierce geode]

i mean only pro teams or lucky teams can pull that off

[waxen root]

it doesnt matter because the distance to point is large enough to break shieldd again

[toxic yacht]

in other words, it's a bad habit but it looks correct because everyone else does it

TIL

[waxen root]

also yea that one @fierce geode

nah sojum

[toxic yacht]

thanks, I always thought that it was the correct thing to do in those circumstances

[waxen root]

the map is just wierd to play hnsetly

it depends what comp u play against

against tank comp its fine

if enemy takes like soldier on highground or plays divecomp its super difficult to pull off

thats why we try holding close instead

[fierce geode]

correct me if im wrong but you should totally retreat to regroup in streets but in OT you don't have a choice but to fight back

[waxen root]

against certain teams

[toxic yacht]

I'm learning so much today

lol

[waxen root]

but thats what i said hunter

regrouping in streets is wierd

because distance to point is long and u will lose shield before u get to point

so its wierd

[fierce geode]

i meant in order to hold in streets

[waxen root]

oh

[fierce geode]

not fight back to point a

[waxen root]

well yea

depends how ur spawns are and who is alive etc

we arent rly good at retreating tbh

we try to contest too many points sometimes

bites us in the ass, sometimes pays off mega hard

[fierce geode]

high risk, high reward

@waxen root good game though, gl against MVR and eunited!

or MRD or w/e they go by

https://clips.twitch.tv/SmallSweetShieldAMPEnergyCherry

unrelated but here the casters are calling clg, lg evil

[waxen root]

thanks 😃

[rapid oxide]

Can someone know what kind of music ogn is using holy shit?

[fierce geode]

they probably make it

[dusty surge]

@waxen root You done for the day?

[waxen root]

yes

[limber pine]

3 is enough?

[toxic yacht]

You can bother him with pings now

[dusty surge]

So this part of the tourney was a bracket, right? So you were playing straight into mostly fresh opponents all day?

[toxic yacht]

Instead of pinging him mid-match

[waxen root]

i put it on dnd mid-match

so doesnt matter

[limber pine]

I pinged him between matches
