1-1

fierce geode
#

Imt gonna take it all

solid spear
#

1-1

balmy wolf
#

Renegades and playoff collapse. Name a more iconic duo.

limber pine
#

that would be funny if the one majorly sponsered team didn't make it in

#

5he Detroit Renegades

wintry matrix
#

IMT and Liquid are huge tho don't they?

supple nymph
#

@balmy wolf nrg and uhh everything collapse

balmy wolf
#

@wintry matrix right now Liquid vs FNRGFE will be fireworks

wintry matrix
#

yes, i hope so

fierce geode
#

He means an org outside of esports

wary falcon
#

my boy Azk will beat shit out of them

wintry matrix
#

tho i wouldn't be surprised if it turned into a snorefest also

#

not even a stomp snorefest, just a snorefest in general

clever portal
#

Immortals have won, unless Liquid or FNRGFE turn on god mode

limber pine
#

and has already started calling themselves by their hometown and all that fun stuff

balmy wolf
#

@limber pine channel their Detroit Lions spirit

supple nymph
wintry matrix
#

oh, got it

limber pine
#

@balmy wolf ouch

clever portal
#

Humble? pogchimp

supple nymph
limber pine
#

oh AJAX

wintry matrix
#

no chill

balmy wolf
#

eh

#

this is Ajax's twitter

wary falcon
#

I'm so done

#

they simply deleted semi-final and final from site

clever portal
#

Could be event related thing?

#

For example, they only show games 2 hours before they happen

#

So maybe they have nothing to list the games

#

Because they get decided as the day goes on

wary falcon
#

Game was on site but i was too slow to bet

balmy wolf
wary falcon
#

It's because OW has little scene and few people bet on OW

#

i can't imagine same thing happens with LoL or Dota

clever portal
#

Yeah

#

Also you need to be high to bet on NA overwatch

wary falcon
#

Overwatch is actually pretty safe

clever portal
#

If you bet on Liquid or C9 you're throwing harder than the teams themselves

#

I would say Apex is safe

wary falcon
#

in groups yes

#

only World of Tanks is better

#

But WoT's events are so rare

balmy wolf
#

Renegades 2-1 Envision

clever portal
#

Isn't world of tanks a RU game

#

RU is weird

#

Insane views on twitch for the esports they like

#

Dota literally has more RU views sometimes

balmy wolf
#

CIS views

#

CIS has this weird preference for hard as fucks game

#

CSGO, WoT and DOTA2

clever portal
#

Too bad they won't play casual games like OW

#

Atleast we got KR like League

#

But no Brazil and Russia

wary falcon
#

Nobody watch WoT because of entertainment

wintry matrix
#

leak Crusade actually FNRGFE

wary falcon
#

Can't type well on my retarded phonr

wintry matrix
#

must be a stacked team to poach them off LK, alicus outplayed

clever portal
#

Alicus outplayed for the first time

#

@wary falcon they watch it to bet?

supple nymph
limber pine
#

good

balmy wolf
wintry matrix
#

Liquid's red horse kinda looks awesome

balmy wolf
#

Kophee: "I love when people just write us off because we're the underdogs. It's weird to me that every "good" team we beat was either throwing or had a bad day. We defeated Team Liquid to qualify into group stages, and we'll beat them again."

wintry matrix
#

he's not wrong

balmy wolf
#

and now they flunked out of Contenders

#

20K viewers atm

wintry matrix
#

FNRGFE is kinda unknow

#

i do wonder if being sunday means anything with views

clever portal
#

Shadder Pharah lul

balmy wolf
#

I wonder where shadder is

#

Because their bootcamp finished almost 2 weeks ago

wintry matrix
#

they stayed for contender didn't they?

balmy wolf
#

I thought they were supposed to but shadder tweeted "thanks for the bootcamp @nvidiageforce" on the 3rd

#

unless he was just randomly thanking them

#

according to my friend

#

they are elsewhere

#

but still in NA

IMT X FNRGFE FINAL LET'S GO BOIS

clever portal
supple nymph
#

T H R O W

wintry matrix
#

even though i don't like clockwork's hate for the game

#

tho he's pretty good

supple nymph
#

what pros like overwatch?

balmy wolf
#

A lot of them

wintry matrix
#

at least outspoken

clever portal
#

I heard clockwork is reformed

wintry matrix
#

Taimou liked, Clockwork hated from the start didn't he?

clever portal
#

But that was reddit

balmy wolf
#

Well its been months since he's said he hates the game

#

so he could have changed his opinion

#

I feel like he has

#

considering hes still playing

wintry matrix
#

i think you can still go pro while hating

#

same as Taimou

supple nymph
#

boom

clever portal
#

Muma triggered from that res by RNG

wintry matrix
#

i'd say that last EMP looked weird, but he'll get another anyway

balmy wolf
#

Shadder :c

clever portal
#

Need to pick non sombra map

supple nymph
balmy wolf
#

Why does NA have less views than EU yesterday?

#

Times?

fickle basin
#

Yeah, Its hard for Europe to watch when its so late

wintry matrix
#

maybe has to do with sunday? csgo still going?

@balmy wolf Games Done Quick is on

Maybe SGDQ

#

Yeah

supple nymph

NA watching pubg

wintry matrix

clever portal
#

What is games done quick

supple nymph
#

Summer Games Done Quick 2017 is a speedrunning marathon benefiting Doctors Without Borders.

balmy wolf
#

A charity event with speedrunning

wintry matrix
#

who are summit and sodapoppin?

#

they're bringing the biggest viewer numbers rn to PUBG

supple nymph
#

summit is the guy with the monster fridge

balmy wolf

how they get held?

clever portal
#

Wasted too much time on early pushes

#

FNRGFE also playing smart

#

Clockwork playing much better than Azk

balmy wolf
#

Too much quake NotLikeThis

supple nymph

too much dive

tactical dc

dusty surge
#

10 min ban for FNRGFE pls. Goddamn leavers.

wintry matrix
#

someone left?

dusty surge
#

Someone disconnected, yeah.

#

It's somewhat disappointing how many of these games have people disconnecting. I'd expect more stability for people making a career out of gaming.

clever portal
#

NA version of tactical pause

wintry matrix
#

it happens

#

especially if you're orgless

supple nymph
#

R I G G E D

wintry matrix
#

i'd be very sad if they lost out of the momentum lost in this

supple nymph
#

FAILURE

wintry matrix
#

the gods of esport must really hate liquid

balmy wolf
#

Rapha died with sound barrier

#

argh

clever portal
#

Their defense looked good though

#

They can take this map

balmy wolf
#

LG's got this

#

Boink with the throwing sound barrier

#

Dahang keep dying with the EMP though

hallow fable
#

do we know who won out of envision and renegrades?

wintry matrix
#

rng

halcyon nymph
#

Dahang's sombra is super questionable imo

wintry matrix
#

3-1

halcyon nymph
#

his tracking makes me cry and his emp usage..

balmy wolf
#

he kept doing EMP like a kamikaze pilot

#

EMP then died

halcyon nymph
#

like that past round the whole liquid team was inside building using the hacked mega

weary fossil
#

don't worry, he plays sombra like most people play sombra

halcyon nymph
#

and you hear "Apagando las luces"

#

and then he died

clever portal
#

It's passable

halcyon nymph
#

idk, his emp usage makes me cry, his tracking makes me cry

clever portal
#

So what map

#

If they want to avoid Sombra, Numbani

clever wagon
#

What is this, Liquid being questionable? I thought that word was off their books coming into Contenders

halcyon nymph
#

LUUL

#

that sombra potg, that tracking was just the sum up of my feelings on his performance

balmy wolf
#

It worked out

#

shrug

halcyon nymph
#

yeah but even if it worked out, it wasn't clean

balmy wolf
#

He's got some time to polish it

weary fossil
#

is he even a dps main

halcyon nymph
#

idk, his sombra is questionable as fuck imo, and running sombra on hanamura B is questionable in itself

weary fossil
#

sombra is played as a support here

clever portal
#

He is a support

weary fossil
#

really just be annoying and for the emp

halcyon nymph
#

Hanamura B is the worst 2cp point for sombra imo

weary fossil
#

not to get all the kills

clever portal
#

Hollywood good choice

halcyon nymph
#

So like, they played sombra on a kinda poor map for her, and with a kinda poor player on her... that's not really a smart decision imo

clever portal
#

You want Shadder on sombra?

balmy wolf
#

A win is a win

halcyon nymph
#

if he was a godlike sombra, or if it was anubis or volskaya, sure lol

balmy wolf
#

and somehow they full hold FNRGFE

#

so

halcyon nymph
#

nah i think just putting him on an actual support would have been cleaner

clever portal
#

The sombra saved them a few times

#

One push FNRGFE would have capped

halcyon nymph
#

yeah who knows

clever portal
#

He ulted Zen and Lucio

#

And got the double kill

halcyon nymph
#

tbh who knows how a zen would have worked out compared to the sombra

#

Idk, i just feel ike it's questionable on many levels

#

the map choice for sombra is bad, the player on sombra is kinda bleh

#

Also the thing that's really bad imo

#

is the moment where he emps while his whole team is farming the mega inside the building

balmy wolf
#

Your prayers have been heard lol

halcyon nymph
#

that's just lack (or complete void) of communication ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

#

i'm a fan of sombra tho overall, i think she's really good against dive

wintry matrix
#

dat graviton

halcyon nymph
#

Hacking dva, winston, genji or tracer

#

those are all really good targets

weary fossil
#

dva is also a very easy hack target

#

matrix does not defend against it

wintry matrix
#

i do worry why people keep running zen against sombra

#

he's instadead every fight

halcyon nymph
#

Shadder is a lot better on sombra it feels

balmy wolf
#

He has better aim

halcyon nymph
#

and idk, even comms wise

weary fossil
#

he wasted hes ult earlier

halcyon nymph
#

it seems like they're communicating the EMP better

wintry matrix
#

dat graviton

halcyon nymph
#

I think Dva ate the pulse bomb in the neat grav on first point tho

balmy wolf
#

Sleep

halcyon nymph
#

Kreygasm

#

that emp to counter sound barrier

#

feels so good

balmy wolf
#

LET'S GO LIQUID

#

๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘

hallow fable
#

This feels like a reverse sweep

wintry matrix
#

BUDS

balmy wolf
#

Why are they choking??!

wintry matrix
#

nooooooo

balmy wolf
#

nah

#

LG should still be able to take this

clever portal
#

No choke, they're being sombra'd

balmy wolf
#

I meant LG lol

#

Zarya with Winston? What is this, season one?

halcyon nymph
#

if liquid wants to play sombra they need shadder on her tho

hallow fable
#

fnrgfe, has the be the most pita name to say.

halcyon nymph
#

which kinda limits the comps they can play, unless dahang has some pocket dps picks or something

wintry matrix

fnrgfe monkaS

hallow fable

#

Next map si control right?

wintry matrix
#

yes

balmy wolf
#

the comeback is REAL

halcyon nymph
#

that was a real c9 there

balmy wolf
#

NO

clever portal
#

Yeah, so Illios Nepal or Lijiang

wintry matrix
#

if only there wasn't that dc on hanamura

clever portal
#

But Illios might be banned from map pool

hallow fable
#

Think this will go 5 rounds?

clever portal
#

It already has

#

2-2

hallow fable
#

erm, in control.

balmy wolf
#

yes

#

this isn't APEX

clever portal
#

If Liquid keep it up, control will be 3-0

balmy wolf
#

Liquid pulling a reverse Liquid monkaS

halcyon nymph
#

i don't like how they're like "the gravs were spot on but there wasn't follow up"

#

that means the gravs weren't spot on :/

clever portal
#

Suprised they won that

hallow fable
#

they got their mojo back?

clever portal
#

That one long fight looked bad for them

balmy wolf
#

COME ON LIQUID

hallow fable
#

At the very least this was a good set to watch.

#

ow!

LET'S GO CORNDOGGO BOIS

hallow fable
#

yup this is going 5 rounds.

#

tense.

clever portal
#

Last round map RNG will decide who wins

#

FNRGFE will probably lose this map

#

Pharah plain bad here

#

Maybe if you're S4 or Mangachu you run it

hallow fable
#

i got a good laugh, from that

#

wow

#

i though liquid had that,

balmy wolf
#

????

#

Please don't choke

clever portal
#

Massive misplay

#

If they didn't lose point they would be at 80%

hallow fable
#

yeah

clever portal
#

Might cost them the map

#

Yup cost them

hallow fable
#

yup

wintry matrix
#

NO

clever portal
#

Map should have been done 20% ago

wintry matrix
#

pls fnrgfe don choke

dusty surge
#

Damn... close round.

balmy wolf
#

Yo

#

Why is it always Nepal

dusty surge
#

Because we already had Oasis, and Illios is Illios.

clever portal
#

They got recked on this map

#

Ilios banned I think

halcyon nymph
#

lijiang tho

clever portal
#

Only this or Lijiang

#

gg

#

They got stomped on this map last time

#

Lost because of C9

halcyon nymph
#

illios is the worst of the koth maps

#

well, lighthouse is ok but the other 2

#

sPuke

dusty surge
#

Illios is too environmental kill heavy. It's still better than 2cp though. :P

Ilios is great, can't get the hate

xQC

clever portal
#

He has a point

#

I think Timo/xQc are asking for the wrong things though

#

Unless they actually want 3 dps

#

xQc I saying he wants matrix nerf

weary fossil
#

what if they nerf winston shield instead, will he rage

clever portal
#

I would say DVa dive has a lot less 'luck' than 3 dps

weary fossil
#

matrix is fine

gusty notch
#

Dvas just infuriating

clever portal
#

It's true, but she is stopping the meta

#

If you take her away, 3 DPS is even more cancer

#

No way will someone run Zarya, when Zarya gets destroyed by Dive

#

Ideally winston/rein get 50/50 play

#

It would fix this meta

#

Not some DVa nerfs

wintry matrix
#

remember that is also a matter of perspectiver

#

may be prejudice on my part, but a lot of NA pros seems to stuborn/lazy/uncreative to try to think of an alternative

gusty notch
#

I mean koreans haven't created an alternative either

wintry matrix
#

also the fact that the scene is still in influx, there's very few teams really established (as in lineup and synergy and what not)

clever portal
#

To an extent they have

gusty notch
#

To dive?

wintry matrix
#

they have tried tho at least, 3 sups

clever portal
#

For example LH focuses DVa hard

gusty notch
#

I mean ppl tried quad tank here

clever portal
#

3 support is good against Genji, that's it

gusty notch
#

It actually worked for one game lol

wintry matrix
#

also it's not only a matter of comp, there's also playstyle

clever portal
#

If he ults you stand together and discord/boop/nade

#

He will die

#

Yeah playstyle makes a difference

#

Every NA team seems to be aggressive dive

Meanwhile in EU you have teams like eUnited

Busy thinking about the 1mil prize pool in QC

supple nymph
#

LOL

clever wagon
#

Also how much of a better game QC is to get that prize pool since he doesn't have to depend on anybody for duels, which also means he won't need to share the prize with 5 other people

supple nymph
wintry matrix
#

the same argument for fighting games

clever wagon
#

Tfw normies think pro eSport players are "getting paid to play games" when it's almost pretty much like a normal job - there are cases when a game you aren't particularly invested in actually pays more than a game you prefer

wintry matrix
#

that definetely happens

#

not only in OW prob all games have that

#

(if) that is more prevalent in OW is because we're in a "growing pains" stage

FNRGFE vs Liquid and FNRGFE vs RNG were the best matches

but if they can upgrade AZK

#

i think Liquid has one it takes

#

to Envy LOL

#

AZK is a good supportive DPS but I think they need a better DPS to pair with Shadder

#

NRG is the rumoured team

#

They could get Retzi

#

Unless nrg is picking him up

#

I dont really think they need to upgrade AZK though shrugz

#

well, don't fix what is not broken I guess

AZK is more Esca than IDDQD though

It's just a mercy main mercypls

toxic yacht
#

she's literally diamond

#

3 top 500 queuing together and he gets angry when he's matched with a diamond (wow, how surprising) and when the diamond is surprise, not very good at the game

weary fossil
#

you don't need to be particulary good to play mercy well

#

you need to be pretty bad to play her bad

#

requires no aim, no sleep darting, no nading

#

just positioning

#

so it's not too surprisingly people really hajte on bad mercys

clever wagon
#

And even her positioning still needs to be extremely babysit by her teammates

toxic yacht
#

that doesn't justify flaming someone like this...

clever wagon
#

'Cause if she doesn't have good evasion targets she's screwed

#

I've gotten off the topic of the clip tbh

weary fossil

sure that doesn't justify it, but it shouldn't be surprising that some people just get mad about stuff like that

i dunno what that mercy did in that game

i do wonder if these things actually influence in selfless selling the roster to a bigger org or not, after all it gives tons of views (like dafran's ban)

I think you should ignore the behavior of players in ranked

But it's bad for pr

People will be turned off the team from toxic behavior

i dunno, if someone gets toxic when tilted is never a good sign

you could argue it it's even worse because being pro, ranked shouldn't matter that much

'nerf south Korea'

this remembers me when an foreign team would join an AMM and everyone would be bummed because the matches had no stakes because of the ping

#

and Rogue in the WC will be the same thing, either "LUL EU needs 7 months of advantage to win KR" or "LUL EU even with 9 months of advantage can't win KR"

balmy wolf
#

How is that the same at all ThinkSmug

wintry matrix
#

ain't it similar? two situations when one team has advantage/handicap

balmy wolf
#

how does one team have a handicap in the wc?

#

because SK isnt a full team?

#

and rogue is?

#

That is really not the same

wintry matrix

how it isn't a advantage?

balmy wolf

I didnt say it wasnt an advantage, I said it isn't the same as a team with high ping vs a team with low ping

south korea has flawlessly dominated the entire history of this young and vibrant sport

is blizzard deliberately being ignorant?

#

or is the guy who wrote these 2 videos just retarded?

wintry matrix

i was just comparing the situations, of course playing with high ping and playing with less time to prepare and synergize are different situations

I think recent tournaments have been during major esports tournaments

But atleast EU is peaking

#

Only 25k~ but EU used to get 3k before

#

So massive improvement

#

Apex same as always

#

NA 100% gone down

#

I think month melee used to get 40k Peak?

#

Tbf maybe theres a lot of rogue fans

wintry matrix
#

the only time it got 40 was the new NRG wasn't it?

clever portal
#

Yeah, I think so

solid spear
#

I dont even think that was a full 40k but yeah it peaked that month

wintry matrix
#

aside from that was the normal 20-30k

solid spear
#

20k+ on good months

#

plenty of Melees got less

balmy wolf
#

All contenders NA streams since the last melee have gotten lower peak viewers

wintry matrix
#

it was the same 15-30 no?

#

to me the numbers stayed similar

clever portal
#

I feel there's less hype

wintry matrix
#

tho the EU finals peak of 40k is quite good considering there wasn't raelly anything to pull viewers in

clever portal
#

But that's too be expected with a new tournament

balmy wolf
#

lower peak viewers than the last melee

#

Which was implied in the message but i guess if english isnt your first language you dont pick up on that

supple nymph
#

sorry I meant just in general; right now it has 25k viewers which is really low. It's lower than WoW lower than Worms Revolution

Do you guys think that orisa and more sombras will be used?

clever portal
#

LH coach did offer to coach them though DGood

red anvil

sombra is already pro meta

supple nymph
#

i dunno about orisa unless they do a major patch

balmy wolf
#

Sombra will just keep seeing a rise in use until she's nerfed

solid spear
#

Cant even run shit like Zarya, and Rein let alone Orisa

clever portal
#

Sombra run a lot like the others said, especially on 2CP

rugged quartz
#

No roadhogs

balmy wolf
#

And unless orisa is buffed in some way, she will stay where she is

supple nymph
#

most matches these days are dive mirror and not much else; sometimes pharmercy and sometimes sombra

solid spear
#

Sombra is stupid good and probably wont get nerfed cuz the game is balanced around gold

red anvil
#

Several teams have tried torborisa as legit strat, it sometimes kinda work, sometimes it dont

clever portal
#

Roadhog was dead even before nerfs

wintry matrix
#

i think Orisa isn't seeing usage mostly because of dive, she is one of the worst characters agains it

red anvil
#

too unreliable imo.

balmy wolf
#

Torb Orisa will be a niche strat run on Horizon defence

rugged quartz
#

Orisa's ult might help a lot

#

Idk

balmy wolf
#

Thats the only place where she's good

wintry matrix
#

when dive passes, maybe we can see how good she really is

clever portal
#

@rugged quartz you don't group up in this meta

red anvil

orisas ult is too easy to destroy

clever portal

The orisa would need some sort of triple tank

rugged quartz

Can anyone explain what the dive meta is, plz?

tracer, blink, dead ult

red anvil
#

well, gengu at least you gota press space once in a while

rugged quartz
#

I think dva, soldier winston and reaper

red anvil
#

reaper is not really part of the dive meta no :p

rugged quartz
#

Fuc

clever portal
#

@rugged quartz Dive means running Winston. You ignore all chokes/shield with your team and 'rush' in in a sense

balmy wolf
#

Dive is basically the opposite of Triple Tank

clever portal
#

An example team comp would be Winston/Dva/Tracer/Soldier/Zenyatta/Lucio

balmy wolf
#

Less tanks, more mobile dps, highly mobile comps

clever portal
#

Winston and Lucio are non-negotiable

rugged quartz
#

Thanks

clever portal
#

With 97% pro pick rate

red anvil
#

And somewhat tracer

#

there is no dives without tracer anymore

balmy wolf
#

Instead of slowly pushing through a choke waiting for kills, you dive on the enemy's supports and then do the same for the rest of the team

#

quick clarification: you don't have to dive all the time in dive comp

clever portal
#

Yes, it's the concept though

#

Become more complicated as it's always dive vs dive

red anvil
#

Dive becomes counter dive, that becomes counter counter dive

#

whatever best dive team wins o3o

#

i want rein 2/2/2 back ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

balmy wolf
#

it is not like there's a character or two that really good against Dive.

#

oh wait

best unsigned NA team rn is Kungarna but they come with their own stuff

gusty notch
#

i'd rather sign a team with one toxic cunt than a previous hacker who was unapologetic lol

wintry matrix
#

to me is the opposite, if the second isn't cheating in this game he poses no problems

dusty surge
#

Meh. That attitude lends itself to cheating though. If the penalties are harsher (i.e. cheat in one game and get blacklisted from the pro scene of many/most games), there will be less incentive to cheat for fame/gain.

wintry matrix
#

i think people deserve second chances, actually just getting caught once is penalty enough because it drives sponsors away, it happened to kungarna already

balmy wolf
#

Well that was more just because of ausTSM

#

i mean they has the Code7 kerfuffle

#

so they has precedent of it before

#

Kungarna and FNRGFE probably will get pick up soon

#

just so that whichever org invested in them will get some decent returns when OWL is in full swing

#

not convinced about Kungarna's long term though

#

Babybay and Mykl are anything but tier 1 DPS

#

and you need them vs Rogue, IMT and nV of the world

dusty surge
#

Right, but if the penalty is just a slap on the wrist, then there's not really stopping anyone from doing it. If you get caught, just go pro in the next big FPS.

gusty notch

theyre inconsistent arent they
