monte sorry
What year is it??
nice timing on the Sombra Dva combo
whew not a blowout
I have no idea how Janus sits like that
Bruh Alarm had EMP every fight
Dude 4 team fights on 2nd point and 4 EMPs
Sombra finally relevant 
yea that sombra recharge rate must be the highest of all ults
Compensate the shitty damage she has
heh
tactical pause......just call it a water break
How's the score rn?
2-1
Tactical pause = "YOU FUCKING THROW WITH REAPER, SHIT TEAMMATES REPORTED"
Heh
This guy said Aimbot maintenance, lol
Reaper is perfectly viable 
I see what you did there
nothing but widows and sombra in QP after this

Second point Anubis too kinda
Oh wait
For some reason thought you said control
kek
undefeated. on this map, thats rough
Which map? @limber berry
Dorado
Meta?
Welp


Next week bastiom, junkrat as meta
o man
Don't say the words bastion and meta on the same sentence
maybe they are kidding
We may get ourselves undestructible nano Bastion again
not until i stop climbing with it
@solid spear you're missing tons of mccree smh
I want Talespin to rek fools on it before they nerf it to the ground
saya picked off a baby dva in the air as mccree....
haha rookie play
defense not on the cart and one person pushes it to the next point
this could be it, Meta didnt get a full push
not looking good for BK
Meta wins
3-1
Yea.....i just like the underdogs
Meta Athena doing the work 💪
Carpe so sad
carpe is always tilted
The guy was so fucking tilted
Haha good times
Rogue friday, hyped
Dat point blank widow headshot 
why does that commentators hair look weird.....
is it the color or the gel
I cant tell
Pretty much
the guy doenst like spicy food
He said gross I believe
But still
It was an inside joke between them anyway
But
Koreans amirite
Pussies I say
he's back 
with an actual account now
and not ian243q4eaf69 or whatever
It's the same account
Yee, same account, changed his handle
analysis incoming
M E T A R E P O R T
Morning y'all, I just posted the reddit version of this week's meta report. It covers matches dating back to HND + Rivalcade, since I was out of town that week. Pretty balanced meta outside of Lucio, and I did a deep dive on a particular team comp that doesn't use Lucio to keep it interesting. Let me know what you think in the comments! https://www.reddit.com/r/Overwatch/comments/68tkde/overwatch_hero_meta_report_balance_or_lucio/
lol @balmy wolf
L E T S GO C H A M P
Hell yeah

This AD brought to you by SquareSpace
The unsung hero
lmao his sped up movement
i feel like there should at least be music or something after he stopped talking
that information is invaluable though
tfw McCree, Reaper and Sombra were all played at the same time
show him the 180 noscope
how do people even do that shit onto a tracer
I love twitch link names
Just saw it lol
Of course twitch is going to ruin a good meme
smh
The moment someone loses the round it's c9 LUL now
the only good ow copy pastas are the jeff ones
For pros, is it better to use aimbot as soldier or just consistently hitting headshots?
Unless you're Dafran or HarryHook, visor
even if youre Dafran or Harryhook visor cuz nano lol
why not just headshot while nano then?
Seriously tho, doesn't matter how good your aim is, you can't consistently headshot people while chasing them around
it was a serious question
@toxic yacht There's a lot of people who like spicy stuff in France, people just don't like when the only thing you taste if the fucking spice and none of the food cause you might as well just chug the spice out of a can at that point.
But we generally like sweets more though.
Yeah.
I thought you were from SEA for some reason 

It's a Spree sub emote
I shall steal it.

Gimme!

Can't steal them from mobile ;_;
Deal.
what's your favorite team anem

LG loyal right? that's my favorite too

@limber pine are you NA and diamond/master?
o
reported

I haven't either lol
filthy casuals
I was diamond on console and transitioned before S4 started, but I still suck at tracking (which is a requirement for all the heroes I main) 
what was that 1 v 1 with surefour and dafran?
@pine star 180 no-scoper uses an app called aim hero to practice tracking https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KoK8CBcD3mA
ignore me im confused
@balmy wolf 
Lmfao
👀

i wish those guys would transition to OW


why link twitch 

that's so meta
Twitchception
they also do a show about sneakers https://twitter.com/Twitch/status/858055056406396928
Poor Esca, LUL
https://gfycat.com/ElatedFrighteningHoki
LMAO
LOL
here's a classic meme http://i.imgur.com/a/XZQfv.png
Heh heh nice one
LOL
Outside of gaming, he possesses a Bachelor's degree in law
Didnt expect that out of 2Easy ngl
Really?
His school work often got in the way during his reunited days
So clearly he was somewhat focused on it
those guys have weird faces
his law degree got brought up at one of the lans. I think it was the Open?
iirc he's married too

how can that work better than just upgrading your internet
and if you have dont have good internet available how is routing going to make much difference?
but i know seagull wouldnt endorse bullshit...
are you sure about that?
it works.
my typical ping from london to NA servers is 140~
with Haste it's 99~
if you're on NA and your ping is within the 20 ish ballpark, it probably wont do much for you
much higher lol
dang
70 on average if the ping gets bad itll be much worse
70 is very playable anyway or at least Im very used to it hell anything under like 120 is very playable
mmm
yeah I guess it is since i manged to get used to high ping
too
thing that annoys me about my isp is packet loss
I generally have 34 ping which surprised me since I'm nowhere near West Coast.
Im absolute east coast but when on a laptop at uni I cant expect too much
Oh Uni net
Yeah was the same for me til this year so I get ya. Got lucky enough I graduated before OW came out.
Im far from graduating lol
Dafran in a comp match against Hafficool lol
US OW Committee: I want to compete in the 2017 @PlayOverwatch World Cup and help us bring home a win. I would appreciate your consideration.
323
Don't know if this was posted already but



when do Rogue play
If the US was more starved for talent, Kephrii would actually be an alright pick
Widow is a lot more viable as of late, and a good widow is godlike
and no one can doubt that he's a good widow
it's a matter of hero versatility imo
@gentle shuttle https://puu.sh/vEgYf/a78234efd0.png
can't understand if polo is sarcastic or actually serious
both

dva smug face remember me I've to play hots
lol 
the only reason to play hots ever - for overwatch related stuff
And i don't particularly like hots
It's a good game but i don't like it... Honestly i dont like mobas in general
LoL is for babies too
I was being serious @rapid oxide
would be fun to watch but not fun for the team when they lose
Im joking polo
"nerf south korea" "buff the rest of the world"
they have to play 20 hours a day and do nothing but think about overwatch
And eating Kimchi
kimchi 
tbh its just much more appealing to "go pro" in korea since there is fixed wage system and regular league formats 😃 not like in west where its playing tournaments over tournaments with a high chance of winning no prize money at all.
fixed wage system?
getting payed on a regular basis i mean
not only jumping from prize money to prize money
also having decent pc bangs everywhere here just creates a huge pool for young talent that can be utilized very well.
"jumping from prize money to prize money" that's how valve game works
arent there regular league formats in dota2 ? dont know anything about it.
well if theres enough events or cups to attend then fine, but overwatch still hasnt reached that frequency
likely dota have very limited tournaments but with huge poolprize
overwatch is 1 year old man
yeah. lets just see how overwatch league does first 😃
more likely as lol
like... no tournaments beside lcs, lck
when everything is done, world or iem
riot is having a too tight grip on its game
only allowing formats they produce or allow
the overwatch audience is so casual
like tf2
so who knows if there will even be enough interest
Just because you're casual, doesnt mean everyone else is lol
Cant wait for rogue's match against a second rate team 
There's at least 4 people in this channel who aren't casual ow esports viewers
no, the general audience is
Casuals smh
i like the esports
i mean casual as having 0 interest in watching competitive
even hearthstone gets more viewers
and it's a dumb rng cardgame
@limber pine nice /r/overwatch header m8
casuals at some point will leave
the hardcore players will stay
casuals tend to jump on a new trending games
obviously some stay
but slowly is getting less casual this game btw
trust me
reddit main overwatch doesn't reflect 30m people
thx
Why did you say thanks if Turik did it 👀 @limber pine
Based on what lol
just read some reply from him on the survey thing
@solid spear btw... if you fix the spectator issue and makes it more easy to understand, owl will advertise af the competitive scene, i'm pretty sure ow esport will be succesfull
it's a popular game, and this help
also you can get viewers from other games
i watch csgo and dota major but i dont play them
Im not saying OW esports cant br successful
casuals will come at some point
Having a large part of the fanbase be casual and being successful isnt mutually exclusive
the main reason of why they dont watch it is because they dont understand shit
That comment hardly makes him seem against esports at all @rapid oxide
It also doesn't really matter if he is or isnt against esports, the Uprising Event is over and the World Cup is the next big event so it makes sense to have a banner relating to it
not complaining about the banner tho
Complete the sentence.
TwoEasy is ...
...choking on a toothbrush when cleaning his teeth
lol
: )
thanks god we have you as mod
In a hypothetical scenario where my girlfriend and Shadowburn are fighting for their lives in deep water and I can only save one, I... ... would be playing MGE with ShaDowBurn :P

rip
why wouldnt blizz get out ahead of this
jeff said he reads the 3 main subs and it's been a huge discussion there all the time
Ass
We have 2 choice
- OWL News will come
- June month is taken already with some huge events
- ambiguous news will come with no timeframe
Pretty sure they don't give license for a reason, i don't want to belive Blizzard is that retarded

I'm very positive and Blizzard fanboy kinda
I came from a F2P dev background
Nothing will be worse than that
june has taketv, so at least that's something cool
dunno about july and august
pretty sure that the owl should kick in after the world cup
probably
Atlantic Showdown 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Nate said q1 2018 full scheduled matches

Look forward to fantasy draft too
chitoge x oreo
lost a bet
Inb4 a bunch of my favorite teams aren't in the league cuz there's like 2 spots
Ok Sojum bb
What do you want me to say
accept that you're a weeb
Lmao the irony
anyone seen a game from this team Mighty AOD?
They aren't good
heard monte saying some challenger teams were really good
thought they could be one, but..
lame
no mean from this season
Well... This season conbox looks pretty good
BK Stars played really well too
BK is not challenger :)
i know
But yeah, they are good but underrated
sayaplayer is my dad
fucking weab
Probably not imo
Unles flower gets better
you have no faith
Im pretty sure they will go out qualifiers
: [
I agree with polo tho
you guys see Rogue on par with the top KR teams/
Can't tell if rogue dive is better or equal kr dive
But compared to season 2
Lota of team improved
i have my doubts
but i hope it's true
KDP, AFB and envy looks good
isn't it a losing battle? the KR practice more so in the end they are gonna be better overall
Runaway 😢
i just see KR teamfights a lot cleaner
idk what to expect from rogue in this environment this season
too many contenders as well
What do you guys think of NRG right now?
lol
Ikr^
Well they haven't been in a new tournament just yet so idk.
wasn't sure if that was a joke, sorry
LAst performance wasn't good, but they got a bit better as the tournament went.
They just need a constant DPS to keep evolving instead of going from one to another.
They're doing alright without Seagull ngl
They just need some team cohesion I think Seagull probably did a lot of shot calling for them too he's pretty vocal in genertal.
Well they played with Ultimawep.
NotReallyGood SeagLUL
Not sure he's the final choice or theya re trying out people.
¯_(ツ)_/¯
then don't expect much
until they do
teamwork is hard
takes crazy amounts of time
playing with Mendo and then Ultima didn't help them at all
they showed up to get stomped by any team
that was the fact
Yeah, it was also a bad move of being slightly apologetic with the fanbase that was basically hyped up beyond the sky.
"I'm with NRG" losing against East wind "I wont join NRG"
I think they should just focus on themselves and play.
Teams like LH, KDP and Envy have more LAN experience than Rogue though
they have potential, but for now, that's all
So it could go either way
doesn't mean anything
True Polo
Also NiCO has never been to a big LAN like Apex
nico is the one that has off-games too
Nico is not a top tier genji honestly
Wot
I think I will wait to see NiCO play a few games at APEX to decide
But we can agree all that the best genji is pokelawls
If you guys knew NiCO back in Beta, you'd know he is a completely different player now
I mean, even Flame thinks that Rogue will beat LH and KD Panthera
also, yeah, NiCO lacks LAN experience
Like after Melty he just grinded Genji
We'll see
He was already a really good Genji
But he grinded his way up to being a top tier Genji in a few months
the best part about rogue is not even the individual play
they have crazy synergy togehter
that could make a huge difference at APEX
I love team synergy 😍
they seem to always be on top of the calls
When the target selection and ult combos are just right 👌
That's the main reason I think a lot of casual viewers don't like watching Rogue
Because so far, they have just been stomping teams over and over
And thats all they see
Win after win
Ahran LUL
btw, apparently arhan is a good tracer
and it gets boring
Rogue is scary fucking surgical
But non-casual viewers, most would like Rogue because of their amazing synergy
i just get a lil suspicious with them going even with Selfless
ArHaN mains Bastion 
Whatever happened after that lunatic hai scandel?
and just overall how good they are as one unit
I hate/love Rogue at the same time
i know it was an online tournament and shit
Same Vace haha
basically, I want rogue to lose, but not to koreans
With their ult management, communication and their individual skill put together
Sojum das racist 👀
For Apex, I want Rogue to win 100%
NRG
I want rogue to win apex, lol
But I'll take an LH win
Sojum confirmed anti kimchi
or at least get very far
i mean, what do you guys expect from a that that had multiple close series with selfless going up against LH and stuff?
Rogue get beat by Team Välfärd 
If Rogue will both: Rogue is an unbeatable god and Koreans are overrated
like, don't get me wrong
Win
they are definitely very strong
and make little mistakes
but more often than not they capitalize on their enemies choking
or making mistakes
i think LH is crazy good
Thats why I think Rogue has a good chance vs them Sojum
Rogue doesn't make mistakes

I mean, I also believe that Rogue is gonna take it
just watch LH on Volskaya
I can't wait to see a new comp come out too
every team gets stomped by them on that map
it's going to be a really close game though
Because 100% these korean teams are going to be a problem
Just put Esca on mei. Easy
So they'll be breaking out new comps
well, tbh KD Panthera was throwing on volskaya
but yes, LH is crazy good on that map
Mei against dive 
Even though I am a huge LH fangirl and I will cheer for them as loud as the rest of their fans, I think Rogue can take them. 😢
Sombra ia not throwing 
other team usually tilts on volskaya
Tara screaming like a pterodactyl 
cause they can't deal with the pressure
well, don't forget, LH and Rogue actually have a rivalry
so this game is gonna be fun
My flatmates probably don't appreciate my screaming over esports. 👀
even tho i love Rogue
If LH do take Rogue, I feel it will just be LH one upping them on LAN experience
Because the last LAN Rogue played in was IEM
lmao
is that an excuse?
jeez, it's been so long
really?
I forgot how long ago that was 😮
Whereas LH have been consistently playing LANs vs Top teams since IEM
but eh, everyone on rogue apart from nico has been to a ton of LAN experience
And meanwhile rogue have just been stomping online NA tournies
and it's not like with Misfits where the first match is into fuckin LW Blue
their gonna have a match (or two, I forgot, I think one match) of easing in
I honestly feel a reason they lost to LH there was because of the lack of endurance
dudes came out of nowhere
Yep
I don't see that as an excuse
It was pretty obvious tbh
Yee
endurance and playing consistently is part of being a good team
that's not an excuse
except you have 2 bo5 series in a row or some shit
Regardless
I don't see it as an excuse
I mean
like, if you both had the same amount of time to rest
game could literally go either way
If you wanna see them as a shit team because of that, doesn't matter
i agree with that
But that was the reason nonetheless
just disagree with Polo on the lan experience thing
like, it's not like MLG Vegas where FaZe has a 6 map series vs fnatic and heads straight into a bo7 vs fuckin envuys
or OW Open
i didnt say lack of lan experience
where Rogue has a bo5 series vs Faze and almost get beaaten by faze
i was talking about rogue then
and must head straight into another bo5 vs misfits
I said lack of endurance when talking about Runaway
"If LH do take Rogue, I feel it will just be LH one upping them on LAN experience"
you said that, and i just disagreed
that's all
Then we moved onto Runaway
Im literally agreeing with you
i know, i was still on the previous topic, sorry
Now kiss

👀
I saw that
👀
I saw that
👀
I saw it too 👀
I wanna see eUnited vs Rogue
hopefully one of them is good
hope they play vs each other at taketv
Inb4 Mighty wrecks the shit out of Rogue
Going by Superweek and Challengers, X6 seems to be the strongest out of the lot
The only teams they lost to in Superweek were MVP Space and Rhinos
@toxic yacht
yee
They were quite crushing defeats at 3-1 and 3-0
i saw your deleted comment 👀
But the rest of their wins were pretty good
👀
Lmfao
awesome
There's nowhere to run @toxic yacht
I was trying to find something to blackmail people with
Rush + Polo ship 
❤
I ship it
I've said such horrific things on this server, anyone who wants to blackmail me literally just has to type "from:TheSojum#8786 [bad word]"
and you'd have dirt on me
Rulo

truthfully i was looking for something unrelated
see?
What a creep

wew
Polo literally has a folder called "shit that Sojum has said" full of screenshots
Jesus Christ
lul
Sojum screenshots are my favourite kind of esports 👀

"'''''''technically'''''''''

anywho

https://www.over.gg/3814/blizzard-calls-end-to-monthly-melees-after-may Did everybody see this?

The latest entry to our Overwatch Pro Tips series. This time we have Ajax giving us three tips on how to maximize the use of new Lucio. To Book a Private Ove...
do you guys think I can finally get out of wood tier if I watch this video
nrg paid for half of these comments
Damn, this Flame vs ZP debate is lit af
what's happening?
flame vs ZP? 😮
is it about the world cup?
were they fighting about who deserves to go?
ahhh i haven't listened yet
Nah
I mean
They have both different ideologies over how to build the team
And they're arguing about it
And Chanman is in the middle like "wow lmao what have I done"
why would anyone take zp's opinion over flame's?
he's just a caster
isn't flame a coach
Chanman: "If you guys are in the committee together I think I'm going to scream" lmfao
zp shouldn't go
zp probably knows as much about professional ow as flame. and last I heard flame isn't a coach. just an analyst (and very briefly a pro player)
kyky flame cptplanet are much more suited for the position
I'd vote in a caster over captainplanet any day
I voted zp over monte and doa bc I feel like they aren't as familiar with NA overwatch by comparison. I mean until recently they were in korea for 3 months casting a tournament that had like 1 team with US players on it
do you think they will put saegull on team usa
it'll be pretty good to get that extra boost in views
also, he's one of the best projectile players in NA
which also helps
do you think they will put the rest of nrg on
for people here who watch dota 2, has there ever been an overwatch equivelant of an esports story like speed gaming at mlg columbus
I hope harb gets a spot on the team. at the very least he's shown he's able to carry entire rounds of ow recently
@fickle tartan no
Rise Nation
Cloud9
Immortals
LG Evil
FaZe Clan
Splyce
NRG Esports
Counter Logic Gaming
🤷
wait
Want FaZe to win this
ITS THIS WEEKEND
wtf?
are they trying to get it in before blizz fucks the community?
hopefully it doesn't clash with texas showdown. Probably will, i'll just watch both
No Selfless or Liquid

Just realised there was another Takeover tournament last year
Good casters and great teams too
I might just watch that lol
Also there was a team called Bongo Beach Boys in it
wtf does 'pogger' mean
like the little discs?
post it sprite
I'm surprised somebody here knows what pogs are
same
ffs
You're showing your age Ford
no u
"Pogger - (adj.) descriptive of a scruffy, shabby, cheap or otherwise low quality person, place, or article; the quality of being scruffy, poor, substandard, or generally inferior"
you wouldnt lie to me would you po
Poggers = twitch chat emote pog champ
pog champ = used to describe excitedness
"also, these casters are HYPE"
"Just for clarity: /u/NGCEO was banned from this subreddit when they announced their return to Overwatch. Threads discussing his stance and the org were deleted.
From what I've gathered the former players for his rosters claimed they weren't paid, NGCEO claims they were and that he has proof. Wish either story could have been presented.
Edit: Apparently the reason he was given was "a pattern of behavior", "harmful to the competitive Overwatch community" without any specifics whatsoever. I see no reason why the reason should be kept a secret from anyone, especially him. I always had a lot of respect for the moderation on this subreddit but this is just ridiculous. If you're going to be so partial in the treatment of an Org's reputation at least do it out in the open."
@rapid oxide @balmy wolf
lmao
Mods are drafting a statement that should explain his banning right now
who is that again?
Saw it :D
Northern Gaming CEO
The ceo of northern gaming red, the one who doesn't pay his players
Just northern gaming
Oops
did he make a video screaming the N-word over and over again?


He's also the one who rat out Ajax to TSM

With that month old deleted screenshotted tweet
And gods too
Idk how anyone can take him seriously now
But ppl still praise him
I dont remember gods part in it so i cant comment
Well I had completely forgotten about the tweet, but my good friends NG CEO mack and Cloud 9 Gods hadn't forgotten my stupidity. They sent that screenshot over derricks way and it also got posted in our ow pro's community discord. TSM now no longer wants to work with me because they don't want their image effected by this if it were to come out on our announcement of the full roster, which I cant really fault them for.
Doesnt want their image effected by a month old tweet (deleted after an hour of being posted) that was actually quoting another pro player
But then ruins their image anyway by kicking him from the team for that reason
And for acquiring Code7 and releasing them 1 week later because "hackurzz"
Also it seems Grego only took the Streaming under NG offer so he could get partnered
