It's not his fault he got a hacker

i've to watch a retard to have a look at the new map 
solid spear
He still wants to win the game
blazing parrot
:/
toxic yacht
if you wanna win but still have some self respect at least don't nano the hacker
blazing parrot
i dont like anyone who support hackers
toxic yacht
you have like, 2 other nano targets
solid spear
That gives him his best chance to win it is what it is
blazing parrot
smh
toxic yacht
lol
solid spear
That dudes probably taken his elo at some point too
toxic yacht
really nice mindset 
wary falcon
it's not my fault about hackers in my game
toxic yacht
also looks very good for your team if your player is playing around hacker
and is being a dick about it
wary falcon
if i see hacker against me - i pick d.va
with me - support him
then report him anyways
solid spear
I mean idk what being a dick about it is I'm not watching
wary falcon
i just don't see point in bitching about something in ranked
wintry matrix
it's like finding a wallet and saying "well, not my fault it fell"
blazing parrot
wary falcon
most of the time i mute my teammates from the start
blazing parrot
you keep lost wallets?
solid spear
No it's not because you don't lose anything by not picking up the wallet
wary falcon
I don't keep lost wallets
wintry matrix
as in taking the money and not giving it to the owner
wary falcon
and don't pick them
blazing parrot
thats a terrible analogy
toxic yacht
there is a difference between trying to win anyway and basically playing around the hacker
wintry matrix
but the point it is, even if not your fault, you shouldn't condone bad behavior
wintry matrix
as in supporting a hacker
blazing parrot
why wouldnt you condone bad behavior
toxic yacht
like, going out of your way to maximize his hacking abilites
to make the game even more garbage
wintry matrix
like, isn't the point of ranked to prove you're gud?
toxic yacht
ur gud if you play around the guy ruining games for every1
wintry matrix
hackers only play for the screen points
toxic yacht
don't you understand?
imaginary screenpoints are more important than actually trying to get a win that you deserve
SR IS SOOO VALUABLE
wintry matrix
it's like some friends of mine who hate arcade but play it only for the looboxes
toxic yacht
OMG YOU WILL LITERALLY DIE IF YOU LOSE THE GAME
solid spear
I mean ideally people like this aren't in the game at all but hes probably played against him too
solid spear
And yes lots of people want to win in ranked
Lots of people care about imaginary screen points
toxic yacht
those peoplea are idiots
wary falcon
i love to see people caring about imaginary screen points in my games
toxic yacht
including the ones who support him
solid spear
Clearly the other team does too thats why they don't want to lose
wary falcon
it's better than "i play for fun and pick mei to block you on spawn"
toxic yacht
there is a difference between caring about imaginary screenpoints alone and caring about winning with a good game
okay, I will make literally the most unfun game ever
you get imaginary screenpoints though
solid spear
I mean people try and draw sometimes which is ideal
toxic yacht
that's all that matters in the end
solid spear
But can't always do that
toxic yacht
having a decent K/D means that you're killing shit, killing shit and objective and stuff is the core of the game, like???????
wtf is this comparison?
wary falcon
imaginary screenpoints = KD?
wintry matrix
let me reprhase it
wary falcon
BF didn't have SR or any kind of rating
wintry matrix
instead of caring about playing well, and having a competition, hackers and lots of people only care about winning and gaining sr
toxic yacht
k/d is you actually killing things
wary falcon
yupp and i didn't care about my gameplay
toxic yacht
that's not really comparable to having a decent and fun game and then winning/losing
wintry matrix
which should be secondary about enjoying the game
solid spear
I agree with you and all Sojum personally but I dont think its unreasonable for certain people to care about winning, he didnt choose his circumstances and that's his best chance of winning
Unlucky
wintry matrix
i don't think it's evil
toxic yacht
because the hacker is on the other team sometimes it's fine to ruin the game for more people because he RUINED MY GAMES
wintry matrix
but like, i dunno, i won bc of a hacker, i wouldn't feeldgood
wary falcon
current anticheat is evil, blame it not random teammates who nanoboost hackers
wintry matrix
like i was carried
toxic yacht
yes, blame the system lol
always blame the system
not people
it's totally not like people could make it less shit
by not being dicks
wary falcon
cheaters always be
wintry matrix
tbh, the most jackie could do is report
wintry matrix
him supporting or not, wouldn't change much i think
wintry matrix
like, even if the hacker team lost
it still would be a bad match
just bc the existence of the hacker
toxic yacht
bad people exist, so it's fine to help them
because bad people will never stop existing
wintry matrix
like, i think not supporting him is the right thing to do, but it doesn't change much
wintry matrix
actually that's excusable
toxic yacht
you can't change the fact that serial killers exist bro
wintry matrix
like, if you kill for survivavel you can be excused from murder
clever wagon
Lol
wintry matrix
not excused
toxic yacht
well, there is a difference between killing the serial killer who is trying to kill you and helping him kill 20 poeple
clever wagon
That's not how the law works in reality
solid spear
He's not doing it to help him hes doing it to help himself
blazing parrot
@clever wagon you changed your name?
wintry matrix
it's bc i'm dumb
solid spear
He doesn't want to lose the game
wintry matrix
and i'm speaking about Brazil law
blazing parrot
i dont think you can be excused from murder
wintry matrix
and i'm bad at english
blazing parrot
...
solid spear
Which is maybe not what he should be worrying about
blazing parrot
you still helped murder 20 people
toxic yacht
so he murders 20 people
solid spear
But it's understandable at least
solid spear
I never said you did
clever wagon
There's involuntary manslaughter out of self-defense and there's being an accomplice to murder
solid spear
Wait nvm
wintry matrix
like, killing out of self-defense retires one of the 3 requisits of crime
wintry matrix
i think that's bc of gamescon
i watched Valkia earlier and he had the same overlay
toxic yacht
probably because gamescom
clever wagon
You really think "murdering 20 innocent people to avoid getting killed" will still fall into self-defense at that point?
solid spear
Well the anology wasn't good anyway
wintry matrix
i was speaking about self-defense, the 20 man part came later
anyway, we got sidetracked af
solid spear
Sojum Nanoboost me

more hyped about
Spectator Mode
- Various spectator UI clean ups to make it more inuitive and easy to use.
- Working on team colors & potentially other things.
- Better stat screen for esports specifically that tracks damage per ability, ability usage etc.
- Full replay system that allows freecam. They specifically see this as useful to Esports which will allow better post-match analysis.
- All or most of this will HOPEFULLY roll out before Blizzcon for the world cup that is their goal.

We would like to share an update on age eligibility requirements for players in the Overwatch League. Players must be 18 years old in order to compete in the Overwatch League. Players who are not yet 18 but will turn 18 before April 5, 2018 may still sign contracts (together with their parent or legal guardian) and practice with Overwatch League teams for Season 1, but they cannot play in Overwatch League games until they turn 18. See our post on player signings, salaries, and more for additional information about competing in the Overwatch League.

2 month seasons are a good and a bad idea
They said it's because people would give up near the end of the season
But that was because of the perception of a season
If the season wa a year long you'd not suddenly get people giving up 2 months in
But they seem to leave meta changes and hero changes till the end of seasons
So that's a good thing
They can have a large patch before OWL
And change whatever they want
spring lintel
If it's a year then ppl wont care much at the start
wintry matrix
how seasons work in other games like dota?
toxic yacht
they don't have seasons
because seasons are pointless
and honestly just serve to annoy me
league and all blizz games have seasons, but valve doesn't do seasons
clever portal
Atleast League seasons are a year
red anvil
I dont get there reasoning behind that statements
having 2 month sessiosn rather then 3 to avoid people throwing more at end of 3 months
just means we'll get more throwers at end of 2 months now

It's like they saw a spreadsheet
People start throwing after 2 months
Lets make the seasons 2 months

even if IMT doesn't dominate NA (aside from nV and Rogue) i still expect them to become the better NA team long-term wise

it will depends on the directions of where their team is going
they bodied people in Contenders S1

i'm contemplating just mute voice chat and focus on fragging out tbh
might as well just join them
instead of trying to communicate into this void of what they call "NA esport"
toxic yacht
no, plat is crap, lul
it's even worse than high SRs, somehow
I don't even understand how you should play anything there
balmy wolf
plat is basically where people likes to think that they are good at the game
and it is everyone else's faults that they arent diamond
which of course lead to situations where the whole team pick shit comp and then deluded themselves into thinking that "at this level comp doesn't matter because you'd win with anything"
or not even communicating and just focus on trying to carry by the way of feeding
toxic yacht
yup, you perfectly summed it up
lulz
everyone in plat thinks that they're experts and understand the game and are actually beasts who are 10x better than everyone they play with, so they think that they must carry
it's especially hilarious when one of them comes with their "game knowledge"
and gets even better when someone else starts countering someone's "knowledge" with his own "knowledge"

Once the deal is done, LW Blue will temporarily relocate to Los Angeles where the first season of the Overwatch League will take place. Following the enactment of geolocation in the league at a future date, the franchise will move back to New York City.
The deal has been negotiated over the last few weeks with LW Blue owner Ji Yeong-hun and Luminosity Gaming owner Steve Maida helping broker it, sources said. It's unsure what Ji or Maida's role, if at all, with the roster will be once it moves to Los Angeles.

"Players in Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Diamond will now be moved into lower skill tiers if they cannot consistently maintain the minimum skill rating for that tier. After a loss, the game will check to see what a playerโs current tier and skill rating areโif their skill rating has not exceeded the minimum for their current tier for the past five games, they will be demoted. (Players will never be demoted on a win.)"

supple nymph
nv will probably dominate but i dont think i will ever dislike them like rogue

Mind you, when EnVy shit on enough people and then Taimou got clipped, then people will just turn on Envy
