Gonna not watch the France & China game
I want china to win
fuck the chings
Hey guys... ๐ค
go frouge
whoaaa

the french are weak
toxic
like WW2 LUL
well....
W
A H
delet
and is2g if sk beats us i'm not watching next year's world cup
Canada vs sk..??
south korea will pump usa
I was rooting for Canada as well so I'm pre happy about that
Interesting, Mcree was based on starcraft ๐ค
IM SO DONE
usa will pump sk
:minik
I am T R I G G E R E D
they should have tried to counter pharah
INDEED
aus throwed pretty hard
there isn't a chance of US winning if they are playing with the same strats they did in the past
and ult management by aus wasnt great aswell
canada wins
junkrat is meta yay fun game XDD
Cx
This viewer count omg
Bronze-tier management
150k
wtf this is insane
150k on the playoverwatch channel only
did NZ have their own team?
Pro OW gets, like, 30k at its peak
The tbag tho from manga
Yeah
OW Open got 100k
APEX finals gets like 20% of this
well, apex is on shit hours for Western
^
How are these teams decided?
Theres also no way to know how many are watching through the blizzard stream.
i'd love to see NZ get top 16 for next year's world cup
a comittee is voted by popular, then they choose people
I hope Canada gets far so I won't have to be ashamed we lost 3-0 to them
french stream has 25k (gonna skyrocket when france plays), korean stream has 11k (gonna skyrocket when SK plays), russian stream has 5.7k, danish stream has 4k
shit I have a D&D campaign in 5 minutes but I wanna watch US vs SK
Despite xQc
So how many people think SK will win?
flash, us/sk isn't for another like 2 hours
but OWL probably won't get close to this amount of views
What about the youtube stream? Is that doing okay for views?
that long?
THEYRE ALL AWAKE TO WATCH THE GAME
FeelsBad
LMAO

-5k viewers when the gameplay stops is kinda expected
lol true!!!
I want US to win so bad but SK might take it
no like once aus lost
I wanted russia to beat SK
SK is probably heavily favored over US
duh
Bruh when but flower tho was playing mystery heroes with them
these replays
maybe flow3r was too busy farming Junkrat SR in comp and won't be able to play as well in the finals
How are the teams for Overwatch League going to be decided?
they bought in and formed rosters
Holy shit, Finally crossover skins
they're already formed
They are already decided
I've wanted crossover skins for so long
Is that Widowmaker?
TASSADAR ORISA?
THAT HOG SKIN YES
@glass imp if poland didn't deny visa for a key hitscan player they would have won against manga, they rest of the team and the sub weren't good at hitscanning
WHY WASN'T IT TASSADAR ZEN
are these gonna be permanent skins or temporary anyone know?
LUL
@stone escarp Aetar is a really good 76 player
LOL
lol the canada domination on mvp votes
LOL
omg
more like the meme domination
he basically threw by staying on genji when they had pharah, lucio and monkey
@glass imp
not even 50% what a pleb
When they think twitch chat is going to be serious with votes.
That zarya skin as sonya is amazing โค
memes won the presidency, they'll win the mvp too
Meme magic
theyre the trend
Lmaoooo xQc
korea
SK too scary
please stop
Yo tfw you were Sk not Aus
Korea ๐
where do i get pepe emotes to use here
i can't monka or feelsbad FeelsBadMan
Tobi is fwiudhuvav
france 
when sk can play any hero they want and style on teams monkaMEGA
I want Sk to lose
Throgue vs SK will be interesting
๋ํ๋ฏผ๊ตญ ๐ฐ๐ท
Tbh i hope SK keeps their place, theyre amazing and really a pleasure to watch
Ever heard of Horus guys?
I want a bloodbath
I just up SK wins with some weird-ass non meta stuff
I'm rooting for the underdog
which is any team that isn't South Korea versus South Korea
monteLUL
did you know that Mercy is from Switzerland and has a md and phd
Nah, I loved it tho whenever I see Orisa get pulled out.
so SK 1st, China/France 2nd, Sweden 3rd right?
Reaper once had a gernade launcher.
that's my guess
it was only idea @granite apex
@glass imp oh i thought you meant rus not aus, aetar is a good 76
And I thought I slowing down with OW when destiny released, but this is hype
yeah it was so dumb of him to not swap to 76 in that first game when they had pharah, let alone on g5 r1
we don't deserve uber
@timber coral is back as it again ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
They left pharah a l o n e
so dumb
@stone escarp No cyberbullying por favor MonkaS
ye
https://twitter.com/PlayOverwatch/status/926584802282635264 Better look at the new skins
New cosmetics are coming to Overwatch in early 2018!
Unlock skins, emotes, highlights intros, and more for all 26 heroes. https://t.co/AZVFeSx3nt
Blackhand doomfist? More like Sion
the fact that they did tassadar orisa and not zen honestly makes me mad
or maybe orisa is artanis
idfk
what are they referring to, regarding France's team ? the difficulties that it
https://clips.twitch.tv/WanderingMagnificentHornetWOOP
"AUSTRALIA YOU ARE CROCODILE DONE-DEE"
Honestly I thought it was DoomFist deathwing at first ^^
Is this the same stadium as the OWL?
That made me so mad
And while, Roadhog butcher is awesome, but I would have prefered Stiches ^^
Wow, that mei cosplay was actually so good
Eileen carry ez
^
Would a China win be an upset? I know nothing about their players lol
Who's expected to win?
yes
They did better than rogue in the qualifier
tbh i've not heard much of the china team members either
france is almost certainly the favourite
I want France to show a good fight, just for the sake of their history
but I have a feeling China will win
the new skins are gonna be permanent 
they had some great strats during the group stages
I dunno
I want to see off-meta shit. Like "OMG A SYM/TORB/etc."
It sucks that they didnโt scrim as much coz they used to be amazing
Is it on the current patch?
@granite apex Wait for sk for that lul
not yet i think
I think it's the patch before Mercy nerf
Doa and Monte ๐
so 10sec cooldown on ult
I ship it!
It's the dreamteam commentators
I GET IT
STAND UP 
Oooooo. China skins
China christmas skins
ORISAAAA
I was about to say, the china skins look awesome
WOOOOOO
DAMN Those skins look nice
winz on zen 
The red beam on mercy is actually so tight
THAT RIPTIRE KILL
the white is definitely not so bad on maps that aren't bright and white/silver like numbani
What a fucking GOD
That steal
Oooooo
CALCULATED
wait, did they actually change the colors of the characters, or did they just change the hue of the spectators?
is that a pro junk?
nope
Its to make it "easier" to see, peolpe complained about the red and blue
Im warming up to it
the red and blue was stupid but this solution is also so dumb
just fuck up the color balance of the game
i love the little details on the team uniforms honestly
wait i heard China's players had visa issues?
lmao
yeah
Yea, these are not the same players as the qualifiers
4 players
The cringe
shy, mg, Undead and another that i don't remember
well that's edumb
damn these riptires are trash
Feelsbad
aKm's not in OWL LUL
how come they couldn't get visas?
shit happens
yeah it's madness @forest raven
VIVE LA FRANCE
were they terrorists kek
flashbacks to leffen
isn't USA kinda shitty for visas?
correct
Why isnโt akm in owl?
shouldn't blizzard be able to help them out?
because owl is for real pro players...
blizzard is just a game company, not sure if they can do anything about visas
like akm, i mean..
France going hard
๐คฆโโ๏ธ
akm isn't in OWL because Rogue isn't in OWL
Starting to look more and more like a crushing
Again. Nobody does shit about the pharah
because a deal fell through i think
not running hitscan vs pharah is now meta boys
and after that most OWL teams were already complete
Didd china not buy the Hitscan dlc? ๐ค
should tracer just use her pea shooter on phara
its sad because Eileen is so good, and they got rekt by visas =.=
Eileen is carry god
that was clean
Elieen not in owl :(
damn

winz lul
They should have the hero portraits also in the team colors imo
something about a broadcaster saying Boop makes me uncomfortable
Eileen is insane
their dps are good though
that chinese genji skin looks dope as fuck
ikr
@woven jewel I mean, does anyone actually know what the boop is actually called? ๐ค
I wish we saw more of the topdown view
^
looks like iron man
Those uniforms are ๐ฅ
he looks like the flash
maybe as a minimap or somthing
oh i guess ironman works too
I was going to say powerranger but Ironman and the flash work too
the red/gold just looks amazing
Pulsebomb pharah! heh
LET'S GO
Elieen is so good
These colours are the best yet
*I GET IT!
very pleasant to eyes
China team skin is so nice
australia reminds me of tf2 lime scout, which annoys my eyes >_>
China waking up?
Dayum dat headshot
That was nasty
Would be cool if they released the winner's colors as skins
P O G
dirty hs
wow haha
That riptire tho lol
oh that's a nice touch, the size of the icons is how high they are
That tracer bomb tho
akm not in OWL
Chinese Coolmatt 
how is it determined who is Home and Away?
gg
Group standing?
Lets go china!
they're doing it
LET'S FUCKING GO BOIS
We in here bois
China #1
Not bad
USA vs sk looks like a final
CHINA NUMBA WAN

cant wait for usa to get rip /s
C H I N A N U M B A O N E
Will SK even lose a game at all?
Nope
They went last year without dropping a map, I dont see why they cant repeat that feat
I think SK might lose to NK tbh
well last year was a bit of a meme
lul
This year is war more competitive than last year
That being said
Yeah, they probably won't drop a map
this match against USA is the closest chance of them losing
SK
SK, has been looking strong AF all season
I wonder if there's a NK team,
It's just Kim playing six accounts
lol
^
Omg
that red mercy beam
Chinese Agilities
DAMN

Rip
monkaMEGA
Sith Mercy
The white/blue weapons looks sick
Ana in 2017 lul
China doing work
Ana Mercy ๐ฎ
so ever since the first match of the day, the colors look a lot better
much better contrast with these other palettes
absolutely. this looks way better than the sweden uk game on numbani
sweden UK game was an unfortunate start with bad color combo
Agreed ^
they'll have to adjust white whenever there's a blue on the other team
The US SK match should look about the same as the UK Sweden
the health bars and names could use a lil more contrast
Dat ult
Still right now the whole white colour scheme looks bad on this map, specially if the character is next to a wall
China crumbling
was that a scoreboard?

someone get a pic
You take the blue pill
Damn. Yao waaaaay overestended
Ooooh
Holy shit this guy
bOI
i saw a "download" button so i think it was a replay / highlight screen
He is so good
YOOOOOOOO
damn this guy is sick
fuck me
P O G G E R S
EILEEN
Not sure, id be surprised if they did not add them though
not yet
Akm is having a problem with Dva ults today
they did mention a record/replay feature on the roadmap
jesus christ
Jesus
eileen is nuts
how can you die to dva as soldier 
Fucking Eileen hardcarrying this team
Goddamn ironman
Eileen with those spicy dragon blades
Shadowburn 2.0
thats a pro genji
someone forgot to tell eileen that genji is falling out of meta
whats a meta
Time is also doing so much work, he keeps getting dva ult kills
It's a combat log
it's what Eileen says "screw your meta"
rip
Dm
The ultimate hype killer
OrEEsa
Poor AKM
Not in owl ;(
not in owl btw
AKM carries so hard
That's what I mean
how to beet china, kill eileen
C9
I took a pic of the combat log screen
https://imgur.com/a/epsQs
neat for observers
The way Nico plays gives me cancer 
nice @jagged crater
I agree. That is neat.
nico with the bling

he looks so young
I didn't know you could be 11 and be in worlds
I'm impressed at how consistently we've been at 150k viewers on the main broadcast
iot's gunna double next 2 hours lol
ded gaem
now just gotta get them to watch OWL
US vs SK hype
akm is gonna get picked up mid season right
US vs NK hype
Blizz pls gives us those skins for in-game use 
probablly, hopefully
how is SoOn in OWL but not aKm 
this ana
I love seeing more ana play
OWL skins are confirmmed
ana in this meta????
but idk about world cup
nano blade and switch

OWL skins are confirmed, WC skins are not
i don't really like the world cup skins that much
they're all pretty similar and mostly don't do anything for me
china's is dope though
the white looks neat
That tracer fight was noice
haha mercy
leave out-tracering soon
I like the Canada ones
Winston just saved his team
I love these tracer duels
Tracer duels are some of the best stuff in competitive Overwatch
chinese got some nutty players
but aimer told us not to duel the enemy tracer
yeah, made a lot of space
All white McCree looks like such a douche
Then leapt back to focus the ones in the point
and dual jump to get back to shield team
France had little damage and little sustain for like 3 seconds
Could Team China actually be better than Shanghai Dragons?
can't wait for this mercy shit to get nerfed tbh
lol ikr
Same
this is silly
that should have been gg for china
Assasin Monkey
Lul
get picks on mercy -> entire push is pointless
lul
Wtf Eileen
wew lad
Close
Chinas dps is so good
Wow
Final attempt right?
no
Yea
Final atempt by france to get the first tick
1 tick
wait, is it?
Ye
It should be
They got it on overtime
i saw 1 min on the china clock after they finished
So they dont get to go again
that slomo was cool
it said china had 1 min and france 1:53
i want those features
I dont get that why
yeah, if 1 team is in OT and another has time, then the other only has to get 1 tick
It should be like that
prob a bug
see
because maybe the clock think it's a payload map
Wat
Semis after quarters today as well
And LoL Worlds finals at 1:30am
huh
Rip sleep
That is super weird
maybe not?
Maybe thereโs no final attempt on numbani
thought it would be 1 tick for france
I thought the same, 1 tick
I think numbani is special
Aux armes, citoyens,Formez vos bataillons,Marchons, marchons !Qu'un sang impurAbreuve nos sillons ! 
because of the distance from attack spawn to point
P,G
o
i jumped when leave stufck a bomb on unkoe
That was a huge pick if his team was around
where were they?
when both teams capture point in overtime = 1 minute
not enough time to return from spawn?
thats what happened
Respawning
france didn't capture in OT
And there was no time
china did so they got 1 min and france gets +1 min
so 1 min on china and 1:53 on france
?????

lul
Z9
OMFG
it isn't OT that sends it to final attempt
WH
Uhh
Backcaped LUL
WHY
Hahahahaha
I blinked
it's if you finish with <60 seconds
LOKL
What happened?
C9
CHINA9
lmao
lol
china9
since both teams finished with <60 seconds, no final attempt
Yeah u are right
My chat froze
CHINA9
C9hina
lmao
lol when c9 happens my twitch chat brokes
Fucking hell
that was awesome lmao
god dammit
china9
Can't believe that just happened
China9
c9hina

lmao what even
Oh this tribute highlight is pretty cool
150k viewers seems like a lot
it requires blizzcon tickets
wasn't the last OWL matches like 40k-30k
yeah lmfao
wait so lets say China makes it past Rogue, which may be tough, will they be able to bring in their players with visa issues?
lol, ncie name change
sorry
the strongest team china faced until rogue was Thailand
it was 160k the peak no?
@hallow fable I remember from last year when sc2 was on arena, some ppl got in with a normal ticket
maybe im wrong
maybe im wrong either with the final attempt thing
blizz advertiseemnt helps
admitted to illegal sports betting ๐ฎ
It's TIME to LEAVE SOON
are those all from china?
what will happen with the rest 4 france players?
What from China
they didnt got in a team OWL
time leave soon
Well no
Soon is uh France
i already forgot the team china roster lul
If they had them they would have rolled France
lol yeah ofc
that game was close
casters dont mention it but
eileen had blade
mercy goes in for the rez and dies to AKM
cuz AKM is nuts on dat soldier
but the point is
that first point was almost taken in 1 minute
i wouldn't say roll, but it def would help china
Yup
they're missing an IGL, one of the best chinese DPS players
and one of the best off healers
who was the IGL?
in China
IDK just not one of the two members who got to play
lol
this is second hand info but if it's true then I mean
oh
I mean its not ALL second hand
since obviously Shy and Undead are not in there
but that famous Ana sleeping Nano blade
that player would be Shy
working fine for me
Same here
me 2
God damnit
had a few lag spikes on blizz site
No lag here
why damage boost widow
2 min and not one push
Yea
that could be game losing
they pushed
im seeing that too
one push
but died at the door
Time with those ults
well, i looked away for a sec and they capped
lol
2cp baby
yep
ugh
2CPLUL
Agree



That knoxxx bubble
No cast time Res LUL
Here's a idea: the res stays, but their health doesn't go to 100% immediatley. Instead, the one who gets ressed's health goes up as if Mercy was healing them normally
Or a bit slower
Are able to get the team uniforms in gam
a cast time that relates to the health they get
Just make Rez the ultimate with two charges
1 rez per
Or even just 1 rez as the ultimate
Honestly, ress is such a difficult abillity to balance, id just get rid of it and give her something else
Make it strong and shes a must pick, if its not strong enough, mercy is pointles
china should have won, but 2CPLUL
I'm pretty sure that it would be fine if res doesn't reset CD and also put them at 75% hp
Anyone know what monitor they using in the world cup?
freedom bates communism every time
Get rid of Rez as is, give her a 30 second CD ability that let's the beam chain for for 10 seconds, then keep valkyrie the same with the ability to rez only one person once.
i didn't know you could stand on that shit as winston
LUL
lmao
Wouldn't it be a bit confusing for heal and speed boost to be white?
the colours are different now :/
the cap is just blank white, not like when China were attacking when it was 2 shades of red
junkrat is such a retarded hero
not like it matters though - the lucio knows what he's using
oh you mean for watching, sorry
do the players actually see this color format
yes
normal colors ofc
this is just for spectating
has frouge v china ended yet
not yet
nope
No OWL
Does USA win a point against SK
USA wouldnt get a single map i would say
USA won't get a single point
new meta and they are not used to it
who was the only one to get a point on SK in this series so far
but SK are fucking geniuses
it was like maybe two teams total
SK hasn't dropped a map yet
they haven't made good use of slo mo so far
not yet, still new and realtime
i'm sure they'll be able to compile a load of footage though
whether we see it ...
CHINA numba huan
/r/prequelmemes is leaking
Was there anything from the OW Whats Next stage?
woo Canada
nothing gameplay/client wise?
i know im late but i
can we pirate the blizzcon ?
bastion
pirate the BlizzCon...

I dont know about you strife but in Netherlands we dont pay for any content
do you pay for your internet conection?
depends were i am tbh
bastion meta
this strat is so good
i hate bastion
can't pull it off on R66
that tank airshot
it's so fun as orisa to put the shield in front of bastion and body block any damage coming in from behind with fortify
wtf
bastion is lame
that bastion is strat is op
they should remove it completly
US after this?
or at least place the goddamn head of it somewhere visible..
yeah
yes
US v SK
its so hard to HS it with widow
late switches
France is throwing
Bastion STEAMROLLING
what even is the counter to this comp?
A CRUSHING
it's so hard to go against this
this strat is freaking OP
Why did they go winston vs bastion?
I have never seen beyond 2nd checkpoint in this map..
aussies figured it out earlier
you need to get creative with heroes u are not comfortable with
you see this strat a lot in comp game
that was better than what canada did
is anyone doing any investigations into whether these dudes are betting on the outcomes
xQcarry
Throw a sombra adult on that
all i care is that Canada did a huge fucking amazing reverse sweep and i could not be happier
it is my country for life
xqc nerf pls
I need to watch the Canada Aus match
:DAFRAFG
Are these guys drug tested?
missed it
!tmobilemvp xQc
BA DA BA BA BA
Go Canada!
meme strats are meta now
this strats needs to be nerfed
Anyone else finding it funny that French jerseys are full white ๐
this bastion strat is going to be so powerful on junkertown
new meta bastion 
How do you stop Bastion 
it's powerful on dorado too
new? this has been happening for weeks
stop bastion with bastion + junkrat + double barrier
counter bastion inc
not sure if it;s as powerful
bastion strats
ez
Bastion has been powerful since forever tbh
the map is so open, you can't just spam
well the thing about bastion is you have to shut him down fast or he becomes overwhelming
its over, they have the high ground
sombra imo
not many good mega locations for sombra
i love watching me some bastion
you just need to coordinate as a team to take him out
winston jumping in like that and dying is just ??
why are they trying to play winnie into bastion
wtf
emote spam?
LUL
bastion had 99 lol
Classic French Retreat ๐
that's just bastions on fire voiceline
Oof
lol that shitty pulse bomb
are we getting world cup skins? ๐ค
i would say probably
i hope so
19k damage blocked
basically only china is good
also mercy nerfs will be so sweet
china is good
Trying to get a pick when they have mercy??
canada's are good
No one knows if the world cup teams are drug tested?
the only white skins that are any good
they need to run a fucking sombra before it's too late
they can farm an emp in like 30 seconds
this is a bit embarrasing for france
sombra and hack the mega around the corner
yeah and just farm it for a couple of seconds for emp
yeah
thats why even diving him isnt gonna work that much
i can't wait for those nerfs
They could go phara or as crazy as sym or sombra to not let them settle
too much shield for phara, and would be terrible inside on 3rd point
hahahaha
sombra would be best
awesome
what a blade
and get the mega under the fidget spinner
is this going to map 5?
there we go
it's looking that way
what a stick!
what is the map 5 ?
Nico carried so hard
the bastion was so close to killing the tacer
oasis
Dam the clutch
Nepal i think
in oasis french will win for sure
nepal was map 1
Koth @fathom flicker
ok
liajang is not being played
illios is usually the decider
don't think ilios is either actually
lol
didnt xqc miss a barrier too
once i think
why is akm infront of the barrier
like it's really not hard
no dive comp ?
lol
too many barriers in the game
woah
missing barriers meta Jebaited
wasting shields
riptire tank
Korea has a space program now..
omg
china chokin so hard
upclose junkrat destroys
france is doing it boys
orisa missed again lol
i think a long range spam strat might work agains this
SMART positioning
full OT push NotLikeThis
Tracer is behind them
holy shit
so many shields
yeah awesome akm positioning and junk as well
what are these bastion ults OMG
bastion ult is the most satisfying in the game imo
haha i remember this part
such a playmaker
pushing thru 2 pints in overtime
akm is not in owl
