i enjoyed watching them but somehow they arent going on anymore, afaik they stopped midway during the pre-stages?
OGN gave up on OW, since contenders KR is getting broadcasted on national television
meh
so apex s4 was the last one
apex was my favorite non-blizzard tournament so far
yeah OGN is amazing
what bores me in OWL is this repetitive mappool
like i know what their plan "could" be (to make it "even" for everyone because everyone has to play on kinda the same maps) but from the viewers perspective it gets boring
shanghei gon win today fellas
Map pool has been altered for those who unaware
Hybrid is now played first, and payload last
yea sure, but i think maps will still be the same
Yeah map pool remains the same
no big deal, i just think it gets boring to see the same maps over and over again, even though they change it every stage, but i mean you still have to wait 1 month for every stage
Damn, LA faceoff and Seoul - NYXL are going to be good this week
Only 2 hours until Shanghai is wiped from the planet
la vs la
i'm betting my life savings on shanghai
i'll probably lose it all but if i don't i'll be very very rich
As unlikely as it is, I want shanghai to win
Id love to pull for them, really, but my favorite player is Ryujehong so ¯_(ツ)_/¯
The only way Shanghai even gets one point is if Seoul heavily sandbags
But even then it's a complete toss up
seoul should run a meme comp just because
to spice it up and make it interesting..
They ran Jehong on Mercy and Gido on Zen in the first map against Mayhem lul
ugh, i hate that
seoul should run 5 supports and a torb and just pocket the torb and see what happens
let symetra get a pick
it's unsportsmanlike for Seoul to not try their very best in a competition
I really feel bad for Shanghai (like all of Reddit) because of their circumstances. Gonna be a rough game for them though lmao
but it's also unsportsmanlike for them to try their very best and smush shanghai
They are trying their best
what circumstance do they have?
terrible situation to have such a huge skill gap in the league
@noble jacinth ive been reading that theyre being worked super hard and their manager is a piece of trash. idk there have been posts about it on the overwatch sub
oh, i figured they were nice people but everyone is memeing them
but what can they do
Ya, i really want all the teams to do well but they just always look exhausted on stage
oh god seoul vs shanghai 
seoul should just go 6dps
i really don't want a stomp dude
I think its a mix of things bringing them down, not just too many practice hours
It's gonna be so bad
xD
god this is going to make me cringe so damn hard
Ill suck all your dicks if Shanghai takes a map
ew
I feel so bad for daragos man
I'm good my dude

what if Shanghai takes one point in Control

that counts
:gif_RetPaladin:
does it 
no takebacks

Danteh looks tired as hell
fine
if shanghai even gets a tick on anything
where is iddqd???
dhak is a hunk of man meat 
¯_(ツ)_/¯
rip
hunk of man meat
idd has a hot cosplay girlfriend
if dhak doesn't get in a fistfight with someone by the end of the season i'll be highly disappointed
uses tracer emoji
Wonder if dhak's mercy has improved
?
what's the point in having muscles if you don't do the punching
Lol
HOOREG 
That entrance tho 
LUL
HOOREG 

Birdring is the building bois
how is delay for match? Is Twitch faster than MLG player for delays between server and the client?
when you think about it, shock is just a team built around pocketing babybay 🤔
twitch is faster indeed
I watch straight from twitch
thx
fissure playing aswell, neat
while were on the topic of DPS, du guys think sinatraa is gonna get slammed once he's old enough to play in OWL?
because i do
is that why he's out? 
im not buying into the sinatraa hype till he delivers
SIna's 17
dont think hes going to change much over danteh on SF shock
Turns 18 in a couple months
will he be in stage 3 or 4?
like he's good with tracer but teams are going to bait his playstyle and he's gonna get wiped every damn time
right? lmao
Sinatra 😂
bruh shanghai 
south korea is gonna make them pay for 1950
hello all
Eichenwalde first, yuss
you all ready for some fun
bye china 
So is Shanghai the best roaster that China can get?
oh
So they ended up with the current roster
i dont think their roster is terrible
There was a scandal
eichen, horizon, oasis, and junktown 💤
like bribe?
Miraculous youngster is
imma go sleep
yeah stuff like that
wake me up once the match of the night starts
typical..
their coach was getting players to boost him or something lmao
first game: 26k viewers
Average /r/ow browser https://puu.sh/z8Z3y/6fe0fd4ddd.jpg
thot begone
MERCY haHAA
cant wait for nerfs
"We will be revising these changes in the coming weeks."
That's bullshit
I wanna see more of rascal!!
Mercy meta needs to end
It has been too long
add a cast time to rez
problem solved
now the fucking adderall fueled dps mains can counterplay rez
honestly i didn't have a problem with hide and seek
hide and seek was suboptimal
Delete rez probem solved
better than what we have now
Nah
res itself is kinda unacceptable in FPS game
many games have rez mechanics
only 26k viewers
I like Mercy's pistol
bdosin damn
65k viewers for me
- Upon rez, Mercy is restored to full health
Woah
That’s how you flip ult economy
And with a cast time it adds counterplay
If you did a mistake, it's your fault, rez is not the answer
Well
I doubt they'll ever go back to old Rez now
How do you counter ult spam then?
this background music is triggering me more than anything else right now
Old Rez countered reckless ult usage
most likely blizzard will get backlash from mercy players cuz muh double rez
They ruined her
she's still going to be the best support
Already another zen ult
I wish Mercy's hitboxes included wings as well
she became a fucking healbot
because loser genji mains didn't like when their team used 6 ults and they got undone
instead of saving one
I mean BEFORE
this fucking failure of a damn rework
That they're too proud to revert
they definitely
should never revert
probably too much work and money wasted
What was her pickrate before the changes?
personally I didn't mind old mercy at all
no she wont
something like 12% total
the new one is just annoying
she's still the best hps
Nah
She just has consistent heals but that's it
She can't save people getting focused
Other than a death rez
I love harrassing mercy with tracer
last two have ult burst that counter everything
and lucio
Lucio... BURST?!?!
zen and lucio
ult?
what if mercy could rez herself with her teammates but they're all at 75% or 50% health
cant save anyone
Sound Barrier
from burst
Transcendence
Okay, ults.
Ana and Moira can easily do stuff
they cant
Anyway back to the game
ana requires skill
oh shit
SF shock is so awful at eichenwalde*
fury with the rocket snipes
its a meme
Danteh actually playing well?
the fact that spitfire hasnt won yet
and sleepy popping off
Shit
right clicking and end
Ez
Sweeeet
Fury
they threw so hard
learnin from Poko
koreans win
I am a proud parent of a London Spitfire player
experience
actually
i thought dhak was playing better this time
he held his ult without wasting it
but he didnt use it as soon as danteh died
true
which imo was the difference maker
Yeah Dhak doesn't look too good out there
cause he might've been able to escape
tbh danteh is solo carrying but they keep getting rezzed
and babybay cant direct
at all
@balmy wolf what do you think blizz should do to mercy?
remove rez
dakh on mercy is a shame, gotta get lucio back in the meta for him
Yea, if he had ulted i think he coulda rezzed danteh
lol
No
and done some more work
i think dhak's mercy is a bit better than last week
oh god
Turn E into Cleanse
old rez is a FAT no
but obviously still not enough
Cleanse removes all debuffs and keeps them pure for about 4 seconds
No
Old Rez didn't break the game
rez is flawed mechanic just remove it and give her cleanse instead of rez and add a dot heal to the cleanse
All it did was make idiots that used stuff recklessly
Old rez didnt break the game because mercy wasnt meta then
She was never picked that much from Diamond onwards
mercy is meta right now because she can instantly make the fights a 6v5
the fact that old rez was busted as fuck was the reason they nerfed her in the first place
You mean 6v7
and she was picked a fuck ton past diamonds
THAT WAS NOT A FUCKING NERF.
it was a rework
Valkyrie was no nerf.
nerf is the wrong term
It wasn't a nerf, it was a rework to make her more interesting to play
but the whole reason for that change
It was a rework that BROKE THE GAME FOR SIX MONTHS
was because OG rez was flawed and people were mad about it
Whole reason?
her ult is more interesting, but it doesnt need 2 built in ressurections
I'll tell you why
having a rez every 30 seconds was a player suggested mechanic
which shows most players dont know shit about this game
LOL
becasue pros complain and tha't's all blizz cares about
game design should be left to pros, we should give feedback, but our proposed solutions are usually garbage
Old Mercy could revive the whole team about every other fight. Current Mercy can revive someone every teamfight, sometimes 2 people.
@mild geode its actually the opposite way
Yes
yea, hiding big rez was the problem
Unless if it was a SR booster
you don't have to read it
It's on there
OG rez was busted so they reworked to new rez, new rez is busted... nerfed new rez... still busted
hmm a trend: Just remove rez
pls
thats it
Nah
im done
but i dont know where ur getting ur info that old mercy wasnt played in diamond+
she was one of the most picked heroes in gm games
This is a esports discussion channel tbf
^
LOL wtf
profit D:
If you want to discuss balance in the game as a whole, move to #overwatch or #overwatch-serious
I bet he thought it was cool
He flipped the camera
profit?
showed the middlefinger into the cam
I went AFK to grab a drink and I missed round 2?
banned
50k fine
It's london
"profit is an ass and we wont be working with him again" reddit post inc
Rascal play mei
Check out this clip! OverwatchLeague playing Overwatch! https://clips.twitch.tv/LazyFaintOryxJKanStyle
Stage 1 Week 3 Day 1 | San Francisco Shock vs. London Spitfire - Clipped by raosman
Fuck i didnt get it
has there been any full holds on HLC in stage 1?
Nvm
SF have never taken the first point on HLC
Hell be banned for this
SF has never taken the first point!?
Even better https://gfycat.com/DearestCoolAmoeba
Hell get fined more thab xqc
lol they're running the back cap strat that London ran in the preseason
they said it on the video easymac
Birdring on widow 😊
the commentator
What a hook
Who's ready for profit to get a match ban

lmao the profit copy pasta
profit will get a ban for sure
This chat spam 🤦♂️
That snipe tho
WOW
so like
That was amazing
Poor babybay can't kill birdring
how much has pine played so far in owl?
prediction hook geez'
Fury is playing out of his mind
Birdring is so good
SF sucks dude
go London go
This map sucks
too bad Sinatraa can't play yet
What babybay is doing in his spawn???
I just had an idea, maybe put when an ult is used on the viewer HUD?
Blizzard world is so much worse too
London gonna be 5-0 feelsgoodman
Again.
Its always the koreans
3rd time
i want to see SF vs Fuel
@forest raven very good \o/
look at them
Personally i'm waiting for Dynasty vs Dragons
I'm in for Dynasty
See if I can learn anythinf from watching the Koreans
ez game
Koreans dominate esports
Tbf I've been in hysterics when I've been stomped
Nyxl vs Seoul on friday with monster hunter’s release
Friday is gonna be a good day
wait what did profit do?
He flipped the camera off
@magic wasp what if Dragons won tonight lol
@magic wasp Makes them good to reference some positioning off of to
guys I'm starting to think Blizzard didn't think things all the way through when it came to how teams get their players
🖕 < profit did this
@mild geode Just wait for the nukes
Oof
OH
Goddamn
sit down babybay
xD
Gotta sting
👌
Yeah that was a tasty EMP
Sleepy is a better dps than babybaby
oh wtf profit flipped off the camera?
Yeah
dude thats like a 4k fine right there
Babybay gets sniped like all the time
and a stage 4 ban
No way
SF are SO spread out
SF throwing so hard
Omg
what are they doing
Haahaha
Baby bay needs to stop challenging birdring
Isn't Spitfire just getting cocky at this point?
1 in space, 1 at choke, 2 on point, 2 behind point
He is not on his lvl
this is so stupid
It's like QM
hahahahaha
Babybay is their carry but he can't kill anyone feelsbad
@blazing parrot I can't believe you screencapped it
oof
Woo
its all over reddit lol
Baby is trash compared to koreans
I figured; it was just a 'blink and you miss it' for me
clip
their comunication
Like I just heard the casters' reactions while setting up my laptop for art
iS GARBAGE
yay
Yeah there's definitely gonna be so action against him
How long ago did this start again?
Haha xqced
it started at 7pm
shanghai is gonna have a mental breakdown tonight
est
Omg
they're going to get erased
i want to see shanghai win this one just to see the comunity's reaction
Dragons vs Dynasty
Poor guy, probably thought it would be funny and not offensive. Cause a lot of people use it
Dragon vs Tiger
what if the seoul dynasty try to crush shanghai's spirits and just crush them into dirt
the back in 2:00 or something music is like an epic elevator music
then he can get banned for sticking middle finger at 70k people
I heard someone say on Reddit that if Dragons take one map, they'll buy all their skins
lol
diya is gonna do more than cry tonight
The thing that profit did is way less offensive than what xqc did
I'm just gonna hide here until O-D calms down lmao
who is the worst team in owl so far
@spring lintel tbh it was barely offensive at all unless you just joined the community today
I know
@mild geode dragons
But it’s bad pr for overwatch
No way
ik
It's the Korean symbol for peace
They will just fine him at most
Why they took dragons instead of miraculous youngster??
He won't get permabanned, he'll get a fine, and a slap on the wrist and he won't do it again
Nothing says owl is pg13
i mean the game is teen
Like officially
and the advertise it in game
It's a hand gesture, calm down.
@sinful heron i mean i was joking
Not you
o
i mean the stream must be pg-13 because they are advertising in game
they wouldnt advertise a ma stream
in game
^
No question about that
^
Jesus christ that one face popout and 👌 popping up from the crowd
And, might I add, he should be punished, players need to be mature and respectful.
should start a petition to make dabbing a fineable offence
I am more offended by the dabbing than the finger.
I'd sign it @scarlet spear
Physically hurts when they dab
i was cringing when i saw these normie news websites talking about xqc fine
It's the worst because people are all like "Oh but we're doing it IRONICALLY" just makes it even worse, you know it's cringy af yet you still do it.
Cringe af
Absolute madlad https://twitter.com/JackEtienne/status/956326227110850560
LULLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
Hahaha
what if the seoul dynasty entered doing the harlem shake
having a spasm?
DHAK FLEW INTO IT
COULDVE HID WITH SLEEPY
FFS
that one guy on the desk looks like muma
is there a single proper good mercy in OWL except ark 
theres a sign that said mercy's the unsung hero of overwatch
Etienne is probs the funniest owl owner
can we nerf mercy not tomorow not in a week not next season but N O W
Unkoe and kariv 😊
jehong on mercy is a depressing thought
^
Jehong is good at nearly every hero in the game
can we nerf mercy not tomorow not in a week not next season but N O W
Mercy is not one of them
^
I want to see Nano Reinhardt again
Jehong fucking sucks at Mercy
jehong on mercy was depressing to watch
i think ana kinda sucks in a meta where most of the characters are flying around and all over the place
Not rezzed Widowmaker
at worldcup
Nah too op
I think she needs some mobility
I think if she can sit at the back in a place similar to Widow and heal
she does but then mobility power creep is already too real
But idk, am plat scrub
@sinful heron they need to introduce the ability she used during that highlight intro
LOL
ana is fine
Then why is she not picked
^
Mercy
But Mercy almost always heals with someone else
behind body blocked and booped around is enough
I think...(?)
if she can land a shot
remember when ana's reveal video, she's on top of one of the arches on anubis
how did she get up there 
these commentators don't know what they are doing
Ana without lucio is not good i think

O M E N by HP
lemme see some kappa and jebaited
why
These commentators just hurt to keep in the backgroud while I wait
you mean the analysts?
Fair enough, I mute and watch random youtube until the match is back on
Unless it's a different game
@civic marsh Whoever the people that were speaking are called.
Like something special happens
I’ve seen worse
the guys on the desk are analysts / host
commentators / casters speak when game is happening
Who's watching them
Some aren’t my favorites but it’s not like you can’t tolerate them lol
feels good man https://imgur.com/a/j11N2
There's only so many times I can hear "Oh and Roadhog's hooks were cool, and Widow sniped that person, and then everyone else died so they lost" before it gets old
I don't really follow enough to care much. Like it's better than that Oceania LoL match I found on Twitter, but still a pain to listen 100%
0 4 feels good
^
At least waiting until after the match concludes I can get the VODs
If you don’t care I guess it’s ok
reinforce is good on the desk, i don't like the 2 who are on tonight
😋
reinforce and bren 👌
Anyways y'all, enjoy the stream. I'm out o/
Reinforce is a bit too biased sometimes
out of 40 games i wouldnt lose hope in dallas fuel after 4
Bye
But he’s learning
is it weird that i find most pro's have a elim counter of less than 5 after one round and only like 1 or 2 deaths....
Reinforce huh
Like it becomes unprofessional
Question: What is everyone's favourite map type to watch? Mine is Hybrid because I like CP but don't like the 2CP huge spawn advantage at the end, and the payload is more fun
But its barely noticeable unless you’re looking for it
i like how he has a bit more insight of what might be happening behind the scenes in-game since he's an ex pro player
Ye
@sinful heron I find Hybrid games the most fun to watch
danteh back is breaking
But depends on who's playing
Yeah
call danteh he is crying biblethump
Sometimes those maps can be pretty fucking entertaining
he cant carry
Other times just boring enough I go back to my radio
I mean some of them are very blunt and biased against like jake and sinatraa
For no reaosn
I'm a little bored with Eichen and Numbani and I'd LOVE to see the new BlizzWor, and King's Row but you know
@hexed pumice radio? what year are you in
succ
blizz world but be introduced in stage 2 or 3
ok i just tuned in
@woeful wolf Not the physical radio. I usually pull up iHeart or Slacker whenever matches get boring
It’s 0 4 games today
What did you think I was talking about?
praise blizz they're getting the shit maps like eich and junkertown out of the way while mercy is still ruining matches 
@naive plover except the last one
Yeah

only 79k viewers. yikes
I have to agree with Twitch Chat, the maps have now officially gotten stale
tfw i'll miss LA derby 😦
@full lion when people look at the title and they see a 4-0 game
they wont click
they wanna see overawtch
not 0-4watch
2 boring stomps scheduled first and good match at 4am
Stomperwatch
79 for this game is pretty good
true
hahahaha
OWL website isn't using Twitch for me so that could be why Twitch numbers are low
above 80k 
so guys who here has a gladiators or valiant skin
@forest raven is there a clip of that?
79 for this game is awful lol
did that guy get banned for that middle finger lol
wait did he
blizzard please

imstillshook

https://youtu.be/HC18DJNGX1s?t=4s spitfire tomorrow

longest pause in history
^
Profit : Good news / bad news. Good is you made an impression. Bad is you're being fined & your hyundai is being repossessed. 
He will get fined max
i'm just waiting for seoul vs shanghai
They're stalling so hard
He's not getting banned to what we know so stop saying he is
idk
Just keep it s t a l l i n g
fined and banished
I mean at least it's not Hi-Rez delaying the first game of the World Championship for over an hour and 30 minutes because of a Windows update
he did pretty good for a 10 fkn hour stall
There is a stall rn?
I mean they wont do anything more than fining him
profit will get no punishments if he just forfits his sususki super bike
''we don't know what else to talk about SHOW SOME CLIPS''
^
Yeah Flare there's a computer problem
He's still in
idk
I see
Technical issues
Also they show clips so they don't lose viewership
profit will get no punishments if he just forfits he sususki super bike @night thunder kappa pride
Replaying in 20 seconds
Monitor issue
as much at least
ggez
why dos london run mccree so much
monitor issue
It's at 85k now and that's low
btw @night thunder XQC will stomp you in Stage 2
@nocturne sable nobody wants to watch 0-4watch they want overwatch
so they dont clicc
Cause most matches are garbage
OWL website doesn't seem to be using Twitch for video
Babybay is a better mccree me thinks
oh four watch
OWL sometimes uses MLG and sometimes uses Twitch for me
I wan't to see runaway in ow!!
Bird got fugged
probably
profit will get no punishments if he just forfits he sususki super bike BappaBride
they do have Korean streams and Spanish streams and the like as well
They hyped the league and now we see trash teams
Depends how hard Pine carries
Nyxl #1
Dynasty is currently believed the best, but NYXL is up there
i mean this game right now is pretty ResidentSleeper, no wonder the numbers are low
Babybay getting one up, finally
NA AIM
Babybay is too good on mccree
LUL
Cant wait for nyxl to destroy dynasty in 2 days
seoul NYXL is gonna be nuts
Fleta VS Pine
I wanna see Dynasty vs another Korean team

Lol
Nyxl destroy seoul?? Lul

Maybe maybe not
It's the way London managed to take it and STILL have ults
