blizz should actually buff mercy

because she sucks at pro level

lul

but no one wants that

[solid spear]

eh she gets play at pro level

more play than Hog was getting lol

[wary falcon]

as pharah healslut

[toxic yacht]

only with pharah

heroes like mercy are just a mistake

and shouldn't be in the game imo

or at least get a rework

[blazing parrot]

i think mercy is fine, just not her rezz

[solid spear]

Mercy I hate with a passion but I dont want them to like

Roadhog her

[wary falcon]

yeah, i don't remember games with mass rez

[blazing parrot]

change her ult

thats it

[toxic yacht]

instead of buffing her numbers they should actually have given her a skill ceiling

[vestal mortar]

Realment is so good

[blazing parrot]

rezz is such a stupid ultimate

[solid spear]

heros shouldnt get the Roadhog treatment just because they annoy people and so even though I hate Mercy I hope they dont like

destroy her

[toxic yacht]

which is why I said rework

lul

[blazing parrot]

oh you killed everyone but could fine the fucking hiding mercy

too bad

couldnt*

[toxic yacht]

it's possible to rework mercy

hog on the other hand

[blazing parrot]

yes

[solid spear]

I dont trust them to do it well

[toxic yacht]

was only good because of the oneshot

[wary falcon]

Blizzard bleaching heroes, they move them from their key part to something average and not funny

[blazing parrot]

i liked symm rework

so

[solid spear]

removing Hog one shot is the equivalent of removing rez entirely

[blazing parrot]

i think they can

[wary falcon]

Ana, Hog, Bastion

[toxic yacht]

as I said, you can actually balance mercy around different things

[blazing parrot]

nice nano noon

[solid spear]

Hog was announced 2 years ago and was always balanced with the one shot in mind

[blazing parrot]

idiot

[toxic yacht]

hog was basically a 6 second oneshot machine

and a shieldbreaker

[wary falcon]

and still weak af

[blazing parrot]

who nanos a high noon

[toxic yacht]

his kit was more 1 dimensional than mercy's

[wary falcon]

the only broken thing in hog was his hook

[toxic yacht]

you cannot compare reworking her to reworking hog

[solid spear]

I mean now we have a 4 second one shot machine that ignores shields

[wary falcon]

when you had ability to hook Cthulhu from another dimension

[spring lintel]

Nano boosts a zoning high noon

[toxic yacht]

we're talking about something else, take your doomfist salt to your waifu's ass or some shit

[blazing parrot]

this isnt worth watching

[solid spear]

toxic

[toxic yacht]

we can rant about DF later

lulz

[solid spear]

DF makes me saliter because Hog died for the same shit

[blazing parrot]

ye

[vestal mortar]

[toxic yacht]

no, hog died for his very specific style of oneshot

not the fact that he could oneshot

[solid spear]

I wouldnt even hate this character so much if they didnt destroy Hog

[blazing parrot]

they made it worse with 4 second cooldown

like what

[toxic yacht]

stop acting like blizz hates oneshots

[blazing parrot]

mobile hero with 1 shot ability

[toxic yacht]

the game is full of oneshots

[blazing parrot]

[toxic yacht]

they just didn't like hog's oneshot

[solid spear]

they clearly dont they made DF that doesnt mean Ill hate the change any less

[toxic yacht]

then don't bring up hog when talking about df

[wary falcon]

HOLY SHITY

[blazing parrot]

meh theyre pandering to casuals

[toxic yacht]

or vice versa

those are

different things

[blazing parrot]

[vestal mortar]

[wary falcon]

oh my god oh my god

[blazing parrot]

linking dota 2

[solid spear]

we were talking about Hog in the first place

[blazing parrot]

here

nice

[toxic yacht]

then don't bring up df?

[blazing parrot]

pls ban

[toxic yacht]

as I said?

[vestal mortar]

get your dota 2 outta here

[toxic yacht]

take your salt somewhere else, two different situations, no need to bring it up every 2 seconds because you're crying

[wary falcon]

damn that was close

[wintry kraken]

Boredom of the Ancients 2 ? no thanks

[wary falcon]

time to watch my boy Cantus

[toxic yacht]

in other news, taiwan just fucking around

lul

[wary falcon]

China*

[wintry kraken]

RIP zen

[solid spear]

I brought him up because you talked about one dimensional kits that revolved about one shots

[toxic yacht]

df's kit isn't one-dimensional though, and he's much more reworkable

[vestal mortar]

The Zonda zone

[solid spear]

why no Cantus Mercy

just carry fam

[wary falcon]

Cantus Mercy is restricted from tournaments

because there is no counter-play for top-1 player

[toxic yacht]

zonda doing his best fl0w3r impression

[wary falcon]

Also new junkrat with script will one-shot people?

or delay is too big

[toxic yacht]

delay too big

not bullshit oneshots, I think

by the time you can throw the second mine, he'll already be knocked back too far

iirc

[solid spear]

if youre really close and you step on a mine then yeah maybe

[toxic yacht]

I may be wrong though, I didn't pay too much attention to the delay

[solid spear]

but thats a really specific situation

[wary falcon]

what is delay? 2 seconds?

[wintry kraken]

quick adaptation 😃

[toxic yacht]

there is no time, it's displayed like with tracer's blinks

where you have that retarded circle

[solid spear]

theres no delay

[toxic yacht]

wait, there may be a time written

actually

[solid spear]

you just cant throw til the other one detonates

[toxic yacht]

lemme check

[wary falcon]

oh so you can actually kill people with autohotkey

[solid spear]

theres still throw time for mine

Israel > Germany 4-0

Twitter

[toxic yacht]

ya, you can't oneshot outside of really specific situations

[solid spear]

low mobility stuff with no escapes likely gets fucked though

[toxic yacht]

but like

[solid spear]

like if you catch McCree or something

[toxic yacht]

low mobility heroes

shouldn't be in oneshot range

[solid spear]

thats why I said

[toxic yacht]

if mccree gets killed by 2 mines he honestly deserved it

[solid spear]

its specific situations

[rapid oxide]

And that's how nazi were born

[toxic yacht]

ya, very situational

[wary falcon]

I expected Blizzard to increase amount of bear traps for Junkrat

[toxic yacht]

and I'll be salty af when it happens

lul

I prefer more mines

more vertical mobility

etc

instead of annoying more people with traps

[wary falcon]

because meta is dive and you need to catch this hiya spammer

LOL Overwatch ESports Channel Got Copyright Claimed By PlayOverwatch (Official OW Channel)

[pine star]

[supple nymph]

overwatch esports channel?

[vestal mortar]

Nice

There was a youtube channel re-streaming the WC games

[rapid oxide]

Assuming they will post the vods?

[clear raptor]

Restreaming or posting vods after?

[pine star]

Both

I think

[clear raptor]

I rely on that shit

[vestal mortar]

Streaming at the same time and streams get saved on youtube as VODs

[clear raptor]

When I can't watch live

Ah ok

Yeah that makes sense

[toxic yacht]

wait, blizzard did a strike?

lul

idiots

youtube vods is literally how I got into esports

I know copyright and stuff, but it only benifits them

[wintry kraken]

or someone claiming they are blizzard

[clear raptor]

Twitch player is crap anyway

[wintry kraken]

youtube is known to have failures in this

[clear raptor]

Much prefer watching on YT

[toxic yacht]

they never claimed that they are blizzard, or was it the "official esports vods" channel?

the other ones never actually claimed to be official

[solid spear]

As far as Blizzard is concerned if 2k peiple are watching that stream thats 2k not watching theres

[toxic yacht]

I get the idea and all

but those are tons of potential viewers they're throwing into the bin

not smart

lul

[solid spear]

Unlucky

[rugged solstice]

I Like That Sombra Pic

[pine star]

Maybe if they uploaded the freaking VODs themselves

[toxic yacht]

lol, that'd be too smart

the fact that we even had to resort to an unofficial channel

speaks volumes

[clear raptor]

Let's go NZ

[toxic yacht]

you know, re-reading a lot of my messages

I should probably be less of a dick and phrase things nicer

lul

[pine star]

Pls don't reform you too

[toxic yacht]

[vestal mortar]

I demand reform

[pine star]

look at the ults

they're not using a single ult

they want to get a 6 ult push

[round cargo]

All the eports youtube channels just went down on worldcup vids

[toxic yacht]

it's just eco pushes

[round cargo]

Esports*

All vids deleted

[toxic yacht]

oh yeah, blizzard is being retarded

yes

[round cargo]

So they won't let you watch the worldcup back?

[toxic yacht]

either they want to make their own channel

but killed all other vods for it

[round cargo]

Hopefully

[deep willow]

yesss

[toxic yacht]

if that's what they're doing, I get it, but it's stull dumb

[round cargo]

Otherwise it'd be bullshit, some of us have lifes

[toxic yacht]

those are hundreds of games gone

like, twitch vods suck

I have a life

[clever portal]

Watch on twitch

[toxic yacht]

I have other things to do

[round cargo]

They didn't take down everything

[clever portal]

I can't watch without chat

[smoky hinge]

Eh, fuck those ones doing it mostly for ad revenue though

[round cargo]

Just worldcup

[solid spear]

Wait overwatch vods is down?

[clear raptor]

Yeah twitch vods are really shit

[clever portal]

You know what would be good

[round cargo]

"We don't get enough money by people buying everything so let's get money from youtube too"

[smoky hinge]

Because it doesn't get any copyright claims, the people who re-upload it get money

[clever portal]

In game VODs

[solid spear]

Yeah hopefully we get actual replays soon

That's my number 1 wish

[round cargo]

We better get em

[deep willow]

israel's pushes were weak

[round cargo]

If overwatch doesn't make an esports channel it'd be ridicilous

Luckily they just took down worldcup.. not more.

[deep willow]

ikr

twitch vods are so clunky

[clever portal]

We don't have the technology yet

They are making money, maybe they are planning on making thier own channel

[toxic yacht]

either way, it's still a dumb move

[round cargo]

Do that first, then delete everything

[smoky hinge]

Ow highlight & worldcup channels are so low quality

[toxic yacht]

there are hundreds of VODs archived there

[clever portal]

Maybe they'll release a DVD with the vods

[smoky hinge]

Yeah, deleting it is kinda dick

[toxic yacht]

countless tournaments since beta

[round cargo]

It's bullshit that they take down everything without saying

They just deleted worldcup

Not everything

[sullen berry]

realised youtube esports overwatch is the only channel i watch

[round cargo]

Apex and everything is still up

[solid spear]

I use some of those channels to rewatch old stuff

:/

[toxic yacht]

[round cargo]

Your Overwatch is crap

[smoky hinge]

Ugh they just have no effort toedit anything though

[round cargo]

They said esca is the worst dps in korea the other day

[toxic yacht]

apex is also on the official apex channel

• unofficial ones

[round cargo]

They take memes and tell it as the truth

[smoky hinge]

Yeah, OGN uploads thier own edited vods

And entire streams

[wary falcon]

well esca was worst dps in tier-1 teams

for a while

[round cargo]

Esca is one of the most talented players, he got way more consistent in apex S3 too

[wary falcon]

when he played tracer

[round cargo]

In Apex S2 he was

[wary falcon]

i lose bunch of bets

[toxic yacht]

well, he was forced on the role. still sucked on it for the majority of S2

[wary falcon]

because of his pulse bomb

[smoky hinge]

Escas great, he's just extremely inconsistent

[round cargo]

On tracer

[toxic yacht]

his mccree and mei are pretty nutty

[smoky hinge]

^

[toxic yacht]

also, he's a flick aimer iirc

[round cargo]

But it makes sense, it's like putting AKM on tracer

[toxic yacht]

so his 76 transition kinda succed

[round cargo]

Or iddqd

[wary falcon]

iddqd is good on tracer

[round cargo]

Wait, my bad

He's the non genji player, he plays tracer

[toxic yacht]

aKm was also a good tracer, but we barely saw it because tviq was flat out better

[wary falcon]

Akm is best pharah eu

[toxic yacht]

his tracer wasn't amazing though

[wary falcon]

don't forget it

[smoky hinge]

[deep willow]

UK

[round cargo]

The point is, they are putting esca on heroes he wasn't the best with. Also keep in mind he's the shotcaller, he plays dps and has to call everything out at the same time while being on an uncomfortable hero. His tracer isn't even that bad lately, just his pulsebombs are

[toxic yacht]

ya

[wary falcon]

is he shotcaller?

[toxic yacht]

also, he mostly bombs tanks

[wary falcon]

not a tobi?

[toxic yacht]

ya, he shotcalls

you know monte, lul

he's kinda stubborn

"kinda"

Very talented casters but they have something against esca

it's like they had a personal vendetta to make him look like shit

[toxic yacht]

well, esca memes are fine by now

because most people acknowledge that it's just a meme

Esca isn't tilted by the hate anymore and he's happy with the people that don't hate on him

[toxic yacht]

best thing is when you want to dash into a tracer and she drops pulse bomb without knowing that you're gonna dash

[round cargo]

Meh

[naive plover]

Seems like best series in history of TI

[balmy wolf]

@wary falcon stuck driving atm. Whats happening?

[toxic yacht]

nice one hulk

taimou was right lul

I love hulk anyway

[wary falcon]

strongest team atm is out of TI

western twitch chat was confused

they hate chinese and they hate rat dota

[balmy wolf]

anyone have profile link to SENPAI?

[deep willow]

c9?

[solid spear]

Nah not C9

[hallow fable]

is that c9 meme every gonna die?

[solid spear]

Nu

[wary falcon]

C9 will surpass Overwatch

[deep willow]

Saw it in the twitch chat

[wintry matrix]

c9 is the pro version of I NEED HEALING

[deep willow]

wasn't watching for that moment

[wary falcon]

you can see C9 even in korean/chinese chats

[toxic yacht]

logix

🙏

[solid spear]

Yeah whenever I'm watching Koreans streams you'll hear them all yell c9

[toxic yacht]

trying his hardest to carry

[solid spear]

Global meme

[wary falcon]

Logix destroyed barrier with pulse bomb

hiya

[hallow fable]

do these world cup teams have coaches?

[toxic yacht]

some of them

most of them, probably

it's not a must

[smoky hinge]

fucking twitch chat being baited by memes

[balmy wolf]

Yes.

[smoky hinge]

[deep willow]

the twitch chat is so trash

lol

[balmy wolf]

What SR is Senpai in team Belgium?
He doesn't seem very competent, but maybe I'm not a good observer, that's possible.

[deep willow]

senpai isn't very good

[wary falcon]

SR means nothing in pro games

and yes he is below average

[balmy wolf]

SR means nothing in pro games, sure.

But if you're masters, good luck playing in a pro game against people that are top 500.

[supple nymph]

unless you are dummy

[wary falcon]

all players are 4k+

or decayed from 4k

if i'm not mistaken

[toxic yacht]

a pro has no business being a pro if he can't even get above into 500, lul

although, overwatch ranked is kinda dum anyway

so take it witha grain of salt

[wary falcon]

this is why Cantus is the best pro of WC

NZ pride

[smoky hinge]

[solid spear]

Eh

There's pros not in top 500

Good ones

And there's players in top 500 who aren't pro level

[toxic yacht]

because decay/not playing ranked

[wary falcon]

majority of top-500 eu are semi-pro

[toxic yacht]

any decent pro gets ez top 500

[wary falcon]

any decent player*

[toxic yacht]

once they actually play ranked

[smoky hinge]

most of thier accs have decayed to masters area now anyway

[wary falcon]

thank mr blizzard

[smoky hinge]

since most of the two weeks was travelling and all scrims

[solid spear]

Ranked isn't a very good indicator of pro success not to say it doesn't matter cuz that's something plats say to make themselves feel better

[balmy wolf]

What's with the mentions of cantus in twitch chat?

I don't know him so I don't get it.

[wary falcon]

Cantus is our lord and savior

best mercy player 2016

best mercy player 2017

[solid spear]

But there are pros who legitmately aren't consistent top 500

[wary falcon]

mvp of wc

[balmy wolf]

Something was mentioned of 6-stacking?

Of cantus.

IDK.

[toxic yacht]

SR doesn't really say anything when comparing pros

but c'mon

[smoky hinge]

someone said Cantus?

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/333189338466615306/345677557485535236/image.png

[solid spear]

Yeah thats what I'm saying

[toxic yacht]

let's not act like ranked is completely useless

[balmy wolf]

Yeah that, lol.

What is that about?

[wary falcon]

Cantus abused MMR system to get higher place in top-500

that's it

x6 stack against diamond

[smoky hinge]

Yea I queued up aganist him in season 4

[balmy wolf]

Oh..

[solid spear]

Well for pros it's not super useful unless you're like top 10ish

[smoky hinge]

I'm diamond

[solid spear]

That's how a couple guys got found out

[smoky hinge]

it was like 2am or something

[toxic yacht]

sure, it's not super useful, but that doesn't delet my point

lul

[wary falcon]

Alexandra (or ALejandro) from Brasil did the same

[toxic yacht]

my point was that a decent pro is gonna get top 500

if he just plays enough

doesn't mean an awful lot when comparing anything though

[wary falcon]

plays enough

reminded me of STG (best russian winston right now)

[wintry matrix]

btw the second coach of BGH was in that BR 6 stack

[wary falcon]

he is 16 yo

and in top-10 eu now

[toxic yacht]

Teo

🙏

[wary falcon]

2700 in S2

[smoky hinge]

I was sliver in s2

[toxic yacht]

it's actually sharyk playing on his account

[smoky hinge]

not like diamond is any better

[solid spear]

I mean ranked is weird, like Harb had points last season where he was top 10 and points where he lost top 500 lol

[wary falcon]

it's more sr inflation

not like diamond is any better

[smoky hinge]

Yea

[wary falcon]

in s2 diamond was really decent rank

[toxic yacht]

yup

[wary falcon]

and top-500 started around 3800

[smoky hinge]

Alot of pros aren't like top 10 now

[solid spear]

It matters at the very top and like for normal players

[toxic yacht]

diamonds in S2 were actually decent/good at the game

[wary falcon]

most of them are GM now

[smoky hinge]

I remember Surefour was like top 10 with two accs late season 2

[wary falcon]

S2 was best season as for me

[solid spear]

Dafran

[smoky hinge]

Yeah s2 diamonds

I played on a laptop

ngl I still suck at ow

[wary falcon]

i was playing around 4k

and game level was higher than 4400 now

[toxic yacht]

ya, S2 had no sudden death and 1HL, but people still cared and ranked worked back then

[wary falcon]

cared that much so i got chat ban

because of hog

[clever portal]

@toxic yacht come to the light

[solid spear]

I don't really have a favorite season cuz its so blurred for me but this season is aids

[clever portal]

Germany

[wary falcon]

people were reporting d.va/hog players because of Zarya-Rein meta

[solid spear]

And not cuz of meta or anything

[wary falcon]

good ol' times

[toxic yacht]

S4 and S5 are such aids

[solid spear]

People don't care about winning anymore

[toxic yacht]

nice music

lul

[clever portal]

Ult baited

[smoky hinge]

what is this

[solid spear]

I also think one tricking being rewarded actually ruins ranked somewhat as well

[nova wadi]

best music

[wary falcon]

one tricking works in Dota too

[toxic yacht]

nice one baud

[clever portal]

Gg ez

[wary falcon]

it's better to not link SR gain to perfomance i guess

also, the amount of interesting matches on the last day

are gonna be much higher than in katowice

[clever portal]

Yes, these 4-0s are Soo enjoyable

[toxic yacht]

sydney was still the best though

[clever portal]

Give me SK back

[toxic yacht]

4-0 doesn't mean that it wasn't a fun match
