lmao can you imagine
Announcers took way too much time pointing out it was a bench roster for Seoul.
Dick move.
DAE shanghai bad team
Like anyone can see that its a bench roster team, just let it be.
yeah it's normal in pro sports, it's not worth going over so much
yall shanghai should win cause they have the best skins
IDK man seoul lookin fresh in the black & gold
wish blizz would let us buy away skins tho
yeah those london away skins are ๐ฅ
๐ฆ
Dragonโs comp is LUL
4-0
so fast
Best they can do, they only have one dps since Diya had to go home for a family emergency.
It being two weeks makes me think its a funeral.
this is rigged
I'm a Seoul fan but I hope they win at least one map because of all they been through
HEY A HOLD
lol nice
Eh, I like the players but the company behind Shanghai sounds sketchy as fuck

it is sketchy
It wasn't even the company, the company gave way too much leeway to U4.
The company behind them?
Who they just fired.
They basically hired him and assumed he'd put together a good team.
lol
Oh
3-1
oh they FIRED the coach?
no wonder its the Moira meatball
shiiiit that's awesome news then
Shanghai is doing well so far
U4 has, apparently, been hated in China for a long time.
who did they hire?
Unknown atm.
hopefully they improve from here on
Yes
they're still looking for someone
Assistant coach is coaching for the moment.
I feel kinda bad for them
RUI is coming to LA for SHD now
LOL
oops
xushu
he used to be the coach for MY, guess he'd step into u4s role
Lmao rip
I feel bad for them because they're a bunch of kids who were asked "Hey you wanna play OW?"
So of course they said yes, lol
How did they not use coalescence to keep the genji alive?!
don't feel bad for them
good hold suprisingly
i think anyone in their shoes is still having fun sometimes
Rip
They're not having any fun right now.
it's not that bad
You can tell from Fivekings and Diya on twittter.
hopefully means the top chinese players get a chance at OWL then, apparently some of their top players were ignored so they quit Pro OW
They're miserable as shit, lol
$50k salary with benefits
Isnt their other dps an off tank?
to play vidya games
how long must this go on 
Diya is a hit scan, he just plays Zarya well.
Pretty crazy
Which a lot of hit scan dps can.
let them win 
yes
Yeah but how do you stay motivated to keep going out and trying to sweat games and just get stomped every time, and everything you read online is how you're garbage lol
diya is in china due to personal reasons
Yeah Xushu is mostly a tank.
dragons take my energy ๐๐ฝ
i doubt they read most of it
Dragons Take my visa
Most teams don't, remember that.
There are so many chinese talent too
Florida still only has 6 people.
Leave and elieen
Since visas.
both arent 18 yet
That sucks
They are getting factfiction and awesomeguy if im not wrong
let's goooo
Yeah, Eileen is 17.
LETS GO SHANGHAi
florida is getting sayaplayer and awesomeguy
what the
why can't Diya play?
Oh letโs go Shanghai
Dragons making it look easy!!
Omg
Altering tracking IS LUL
oh they still capped
OMG
how did they capture
yay a point
point A
Damn
C9
back capped
what?
lmao that bait
t's hard to play from China Marron ๐
Holy cow
How's the match?
Diya had to go home for personal reasons, he'll be gone for two weeks.
That was so lucky
ah fair enough
Sadly
Two weeks to me screams funeral, but I hope its something less major.
I hope it is all good with him
UNDEAD
Already lost altering lul
lost altering*
See watching this, it's clear they're not bad players (relative to OWL) they're just not as tight as a team
xepher why you even play
would you guys say that Seoul is kind of running their "B squad?"
they are
yeah
it is
no RJH, no Fleta, no Zunba, etc
Most teams say they have really good plans and stuff.
Except tobi I guess
They just don't execute the plans.
@boreal mango some of them are bad
well they dont have that much support choices
MG and Freefeel are legitimately bad.
their only real "support mains" are jehong and tobi
MG for sure
But the rest aren't like.. the worst.
Shanghai doesnt know how to run from a fight
gido is mostly dps
aimbot lul
How's the match? As one sided as expected?
You see the soundbarrier
Roshan looks worse than he is - because he doesn't get the support from MG that a Monkey needs.
You run
anyone know when geguri will get some playtime? is ineligible to play this stage or something, or is SHD just not running her when they are technically able to?
1-2 weeks according to soe
I can't see her getting played in stage 2
Altering LUL
like has she even had a chance to practice with the team?
soe said last week that their ETA is in second half of stage 2
Could be online who knows
but still, that's just what soe said
@paper crag If they're not in the US already, everyone is stuck with Visas.
Not even a tick
yeah ETA just to arrive in the USA
Geguri isn't even in the US
You don't get to avoid bureacracy lol
what do you guys think is the highest priority for SHD for team building?
No idea
like a serious priority, not "get good lol"
Nothing honestly. Their new recruits basically cover all their bases.
Getting a better dva
They just don't have the people capable to do it at the moment.
they got rid of U4 so....
Wtf 2 solo kills and 1 kill with 60% damage
bunny aimbot kappa
MG is garbage, so 1/2 tanks are just trash.
Which means most of your play is screwed before it stats.
*starts.
i see
And when MG is trash, itโs hard for roshan to play.
You can't dive properly with a garbage D'va.
less reliance on Undead
And unlike say ... Mickie. MG didn't get any better in Stage 1.
Mg why you so bad
Undead should contest bunny
You are worse than me i think
Whereas Mickie got better and is noticeably more reliable in Stage 2.
undead is a good DPS but you can't rely on him to kill everything
Even i know when to dive
so i suppose geguri is theoretically a good addition, ignoring the probable language barrier
highly probable lol
The language barrier won't matter in most situations.
Because Fearless will replace Roshan.
So both your tanks will be Korean.
ah okay
And they can communicate then.
tobi with the thirst for blood
they've mentioned before, in the middle of a game language isn't so much of an issue because it's 90% MONKEY MONKEY MONKEY
it's between game when you're talking strategy it's an issue
If Shanghai is smart, and this is just my opinion, post new people they'll run 3:3 Korean/Chinese.
I think people are hyping up geguri for no reason
We are
She is good but not that good imo
He keeps saying xusha instead of xushu
Because we want shaghai to win
Fearless/Geguri/Ado as your koreans. Altering/Sky/Undead for your Chinese.
With Diya when you need him.
i do think she's pretty overhyped but i think she's still a solid owl material
She is better than mg
She's still better than whatever they have now
overhyped yea, but she's still a strong player
Yeah definitely
I think she's more than good enough for OWL, I think people are just going bananas because its a girl.
And they're all retarded.
Geguri has a shit tonne of experience with dva now too, should be a good fit to replace MG
I don't care if you've got a dick or a vagina, just tank well.
yeah the whole "omg nobody signed geguri, the female overwatch pro" in stage 1 was kind of annoying
people are going bananas because she will be a fantastic addition to Shanghai, not because she's a girl
No, its a lot because she's a girl.
people who dont know shit
Hello Dragons my old friend FeelsBadMan I've come to root for you again FeelsBadMan
Its not like shd can get much worse
It's 2018, 90% of the world runs on SJW bullshit right now lol
but people who watch shanghai play
like yeah, it sucks that she's a good player who didn't get a team, but her gender doesn't warrant a position on owl
lots of people are overhyping her because she's a girl
srry guys
they going nuts because fuck watching MG playing
i went to east
Geguri isn't as good as people are saying
eat
I had someone in a comp game say they don't watch OWL because its racist and there's no people of color.

wuts the score rn
Well geguri is really good
Endokem upset!!!
at one point she was one of the best zarya players in the world
like can you like me because i'm pro zarya please not because i have tits
Guys wuts the score rn
But not like muma or gesture
but people got better
no people of color lol
Ah yes, asians, schrodingers POC
half the league is koreans
SI watched some of her streams
lawl
Theres plenty of yellow people in owl
"no people of colour"
Koreans are apparently just white people looking at the sun.
40% is korean
She is probably dallas or valiant level
i get irrationally triggered when people do the whole "LUL LONDON" thing though
there's like 1 black guy
a lot of hispanics too
I think on boston
mayhem has 0 americans
she must have a mean zarya but not as mean as spree
Hes Ethiopian.
o
Hydration is latin american i think
so black
gladiators has iremiix
i think houston is like the only team that has over half US players
hydration is from brazil I think?
Hydration is so bad this stage.
hydration is brazilian yes
Poor Hydration.
but he is not playing well
He is inconsistent
seoul vs shanghai is like grandmaster vs bronze
there is not much diversity in terms of skill
It's not even inconsistent. He's just -really- bad this stage so far.
played against shanghai dragons players before
He was breakout good in Stage 1, the random Doomfist plays etc.
i have never been that dominated in a match before
i wish i were good enough to meet pros in my games :\
yet i was able to dps against kragie/sinatraa
not that i even play comp that much anymore lol
Undead is really good, but apparently kind of a dick.
i will never understand how theyre doing so poorly in games
Shanghai's players are good
they're just not coordinated enough and not at the level of other teams
4/6 of their players are good.
MG and Freefeel being replaced is giant.
but they're just not
good in OWL
honestly i think their comms are lacking
might be
Well
they all speak the same language tho
do you guys ever wonder if going to shanghai/florida is like a career death though?
We will never hear those coms
i cant think of anything else
At this point I'm betting there's a chunk of infighting and blame.
Because they never win
@paper crag It's high risk high reward.
lmao if it was then dafran wouldnt have joined mayhem
Because you could get stuck there, but you could also save a team.
Florida is really inconsistent
dafran?? 
they should shout MONKEY more
WUTS THE SCORE
Shanghai aways looses
of course, i guess being in owl is better than not being in owl, but i feel like it's harder to show people that you're good enough to be in a better team
1-0 seoul
oh
Score
2-0 to SHD
Dafran told me teams won't pick him because his widow and cree isn't good enough
keep in mind guys that these players are still at the very top of the ladders
yeah
and that tracer players need to be able to widow
definitely
@paper crag you need to be scouted then go to try outs
Yeah because mg sure is at the top of the ladder right?
The dafran mayhem thing was a troll
Mg plays like a plat dva
lmao no
Sinatraa can't confirm shit.
Dafran was trolling with shadder
Well the SHD choices were really sketchy, the top players in China were ignored
Dafran doesnt want to be a pro, itโs not worth it for him.
@balmy wolf are you talking about me specifically, or "you" as in a nonspecific person?
Shd chose people from a forum if im not mistaken
BUBBLY
mg is at the top of the ladder yes

Lol
Also its a high risk pick for any team.
nonspecific person
he was like 4500 sr last season
shanghai sux
Because Dafran brings a few tons of bad for his good.
How is mg even that high?
he is a boosted monkey
calvin would absolutely have been picked up by a team if he wanted to
Because ladder is not pro play
Nope, dafrn is all good.
boosted account 
he's not bad, he just doesn't play well in pro games
Dafran is the whole package
oh okay. because i'm nowhere near the skill level to even dream about being in owl lol
lacks coordination I guess
yet
I think mg is the highest rank on shanghai

maybe dafran should coach
eh i'd be happy with being in diamond
he shouldnt
currently in silver :\
I don't think dafran's gamesense is too great
Im in low plat
maybe you should git good, vivid
You know that selfless got carried because they played pocket the soldier strat
give it time and hit us up in dms/ping us in #old-gameplay-advice for help
I can't wait to see Sinatraa's first OWL rage.
When SBB shits all over him.
Again.
sinatraa is not that good tbh
but dw, I started in silver and I hit plat last season and held it this season so far, so there's hope for all us scrubs ๐
ive been able to soldier against him 
im not sold on sinatraa/super saving SF shock
I donโt think anyone is better thank dafran in tracking
Because literally SBB vs. Sinatraa looks like an MMA fighter against a baby.
will there ever be a console league
eh i'd love to be better, but i'm not really that invested in the competitive aspect so i mainly play arcade
it would be cool to get tips from higher level players though

It is the best
ive played against harryhook before
i think in s6
fucking hell
peeling against his soldier was a nightmare
i miss CTF
dafran from quake right? thats where he comes from?
didn't dafran say he's not playing pro again, not that those kinds of statements hold much value
he played cs i thought
Anyone else got shit resolution even on 1080p?
Dafran played csgo
dafran said hes a troll through and through, and doesnt wanna play pro
bitrate
you mean shit resolution on twitch, right?
Yeah dafran is not gonna go pro sadly
mine looks as good as twitch gets
i kind of have bad resolution too despite 1080 :\
Unless OWL blows the fuck up
How much of a hindrance is a language barrier in OWL? Would it be worth it to make a concession in terms of skill in order to have everyone speaking the same language? I see on a lot of these teams there's one guy for whom the in-game text is a different language than the others.
isn't dafran danish?
I still argue even if it blows up there's a chance he doesn't get picked up just because he's a shitfuck.
And sometimes cohesion between teammates matter.
@fading wasp they just Yell MONKEY MONKEY MONKEY
dafran is danish yeah
Like legit, i donโt know how itโs possible for him to be so good now.
i feel like language barrier wouldn't be that big of a problem if you have a composition you're sticking to, but pretty hindering when you need to adapt mid-game
OWL is supposedly family friendly
no swears it's a christian server
so I guess not
I see
profit got in trouble for the middle finger
Never ever shit talks no matter what. Even when he tilts.
Throw aimbotcalvin in shd too
but i wouldn't know because i'm not a pro level player in any game lol
Cause someone from SF Shock swore last week
but yeah I think they're trying to keep OWL the same age rating as the game, so no swearing
I heard "Let's fucking go" lmao
lol
fair enough though, this is their job, stay professional
I don't think there's any clause against swearing.
If I swore at work I'd get told not to
I mean you couldn't stand up in the arena and be like "FUCK YOU ALL"
yeah i agree with keeping the scene professional
That'd be a no no.
The bad resolution is due to compression. If there's a lot going on all at one time, the video quality will go to shit.
That's obviously not tolerable
Mlg probably got a better resolution i bet
tolerable
meme league gaming
mlg has a higher bitrate
twitch is bitrate capped
so even if you stream on 1080p since the bitrate is only half it looks worse
but muh 1 league point drop
Yeah Twitch have a limited bitrate
Same res even on mlg
its wednesday they should have the mlg stream
Well this sucks
It is
promethean leave twitch running on the minimum settings and use MLG on max quality
btw, what made soldier such a prominent pick in the last two weeks? the sustain, now that mercy offers less sustain?
or is it the map pool
Dive too good
How many people are watching on MLG stream?
Not me
MLG makes me miss halo 3
no pop out player mlg player i htink
pros make tracer 1 clip look so easy
IKR haha
Some maps soldier is good at but mostly dive is better cause you can play it on almost every map instead of practicing soldier strats on some maps
yeah
He's still an animal.
I go play tracer after this and fail to 3-clip a zen
rabbits are animals yes confirmed
it's so frustrating
๐
Lol
Why is MG on zarya
Who do you guys think are the top 3 tracers of the league
lol blink onto zen, get immediately headshotted with 5 charge shot
^ git fukt
Put xush on junkrat, MG on dva, undead on zarya
blink onto zen, spray 3 clips and still die with zen on 10 hp
Sbb, soon, and someone
this game is really beneficial to seoul really. getting good stage time for the B-team, plenty for coaches to monitor to see standout players and also giving the main guys time off
Sbb, bunny, and soon
SBB, Soon, probably Carpe.
lol for a second, i was like who's "someone?"
munchkin?
striker
Nah.]
:/
Carpe is ebtter than Munchkin/Bunny.
I find munchkin better than bunny
so effect is no longer considered one of the best tracers?
SBB is obv the best tho
yeah but carpe needs all that water
I think top 2 are sbb and soon the third place can go to a lot of good tracers
no sarcasm
I almost get annoyed when Tracers can't kill me. Like, come on man, seriously? You're supposed to destroy me.
Effect was never considered one of the best tracers
Rip
Effect was always a good tracer, but never one of the best.

He was pushed out of korea because all he could get was substitute
you mean...
rip shanghai
i see
Effect is good but
He looked amazing because in Stage 1 it was Effect 1v11 with Dallas.
J
K E
He is being inconsistent lately
Since the team was trash.
so what exactly is effect's strength?
Why are shanghai still trying to triple tank
I don't know, his aim?
effect plays uh... widow..??
When he's on his game he's a consistent versatile dps.
effect is tracer
If you watched the valiant vs fuel game
i think effect does his own thing too much
you can see soon's gamesense is much higher than effect's
His tracking is good, so he can Tracer and McCree really well.
really good at traversing around the map
But now that you have AKM you can see that Effect wasn't amazing.
I think he is smart
y'all motherfuckers need some Birdring in your life
Movement, who to target, where to go and stuff like that.
effect is good but not as good as people make him seem
They're all more consistent too.
Birdring is amazing too
birdring is the best dps in the league
Honestly I would put effect as one of the worst tracer mains in the league
Maybe danteh
Birdring is actually awesome
Idk
29-0 lol
Nah not Danteh anymore.
He has great skills
0 DEATHS
Danteh improved a lot over Stage 1.
47% accuracy what
Best dps in the league is between fleta and someone else i forgot
0 deaths omegalul
Logix?
jesus christ
fleta is a feeder
jfc 47% accuracy
I still don't think he's great - but Danteh has improved a lot.
He is pretty good
Logix was actually considered to be much better than danteh pre-owl
But cant carry tviq
but I don't know now
more like profit and birdring
4 pulse kills too lol
Profit/Birdring are a terrifying combo
Logix is really good
SBB + Libero are the scariest combo imo.
Best dps in the league profit and fleta
But he cant carry tviq
logix was so good back then for misfits, he seems to be in a slump nowadays
Who is dead 90% of the matches
best dps is birdring
Logix can't really shine with his team
i'd love to see more of libero's hanzo again
do you guys think sayaplayer is a good addition to mayhem?
yes
I guess
Sayaplayer is one of the best tracers
Good
I think any team having more than 6 players is good.
he's a huge pickup
Now logix can play soldier
but isn't mayhem's dps line already pretty decent
I think they need more than just 1 player
Because sometimes you just mentally need a break too.
lmao does OWL need even more tracers ffs
So this will help with that.
Tviq is trash wut
altering only died 3 times?
so many good tracers
Tviq and logix are bots nowadays
It's tracer meta boys
Sayaplayer will replace logix
Tracer is the one hero who's never been bad, basically.
Logix is good tho
Houston needs a tracer
but houston already has jake
Logix is Jake tier
They are getting awesomeguy

Tbh
Houston has Clockwork. What Houston needs is not to be reliant on Jake for shotcalling/strategy.
tracer is mainly countered by the person playing her
Imagine if Houston had a player called clockwork
lol
R8 I agree completely. J
KE tries, but he's not up to the same standard
Because I don't think Houston can actually afford to bench Jake.
And that's the real problem.
Maybe they are strong because of jake calls?
like if they wanna play tracer play clockwork, at least he's decent and doesnt suck ass
Clockwork is better than Jake for sure as Tracer tbh
but jake on tracer hard carries
Jake is probably one of the 'smartest' OW players.
I think they can find better than clockwork
They cant bench ake
Especially if you watch his old stuff.
jake's tracer makes me wanna die
Where he'd do like psychological breakdowns of games too.
maybe just let J
KE play what he's good at then haha, stop making him play tracer it's so bad
Jake's Tracer is pretty much a loss lol
The kids got crazy game sense.
jake's tracer = SPAM RIGHT CLICK
Yeah i keep saying this stuff, his mechanics are meh but he is smart as fuck
jake is gonna play tracer Vs. Mayhem and lose calling it rn
am i the only who wishes that i could watch owl directly in the overwatch game
I'd be really pissed tbh
So you better get his Tracer better fast as fuck.
No Argon
bench him if he keeps playing tracer
we all wish that
But then again Logix shouldn't be a problem
Who tf is Jake and why is everyone shitting on him?
Jake from Houston
he became a meme
@fading wasp The DPS from Houston Outlaws
ah
sideshow's other arm was injured
He's a meme cause his main is Junkrat
the DPS from houston outlaws who thinks he 's pro tracer
jakerat
not his left arm
a... a professional Junkrat main?
Yes
He's great for strategy/gamesense but has been on tracer recently and is pretty poor, he's a junkrat main and basically just spam lel
I still don't get why its a meme that he was shitting on people using Junkrat.
Pretty much yeah
he sSHOULD"VE play junkrat but no he stuck to tracer
Either way, you lost.
The guy professionally spams LMB
if he still plays tracer in the next series i'm done
He's a good Roadhog too tbh
yes he wAs
You'd have to be a fucking moron to not use your best weapons.
Jake is a good soldier
he's decent on anything except trajfjacccerjerrr
Jakes a really good soldier too, his Genji is not even horrible.
It was his original main
They might he forced to play jake cause of his coms, they might get fucked if he is benched.
I just think he doesn't have the experience in tracer at this level
JAKE IS MAD
linkzr plays tracer better than jake
Indeed
keep linkzr on mcree or widow dammit
But yeah, like Baaam and I were saying - its most likely they need to have Jake in the game.
JAKE IS MAD
Linkzr > Jake Tracer wise
And you pretty much need to have a Tracer.
Yeah but Linkzr can flex to mcCree/Widow.
Jake can't.
And you canโt pay anything other than tracer cause you would get fucked in dive
Lynkzer and muma are bae
Funny thing is, my favourite normie sports team has the exact same issue with a player that's a good shot caller, but just as my normie team needs to do, they need to take the hit and give others experience being shot callers so they're not super reliant on one guy in the long term
So you can't lock Linkzr to the Tracer.
but why did jake play tracer vs sbb the anti-tracer tracer
You don't want to reset two ults when you need to swap the comp.
But why tho
i know i dont want linkzr playing tracer but he would've better than jake
Why can't Clockwork do the job if they need a Tracer?
If you put linkzr on tracer, jake will be farmed on other heroes
We literally just talked about coms and shot call.
they wanted jake in the game in case he needed to swap
clockwork would pretty much just play tracer
It's simple really, Jake can use other DPS and Hog while Clockwork can use his Tracer skills
jake, get tf off tracer
Clockwork only plays tracer
community run OW Discord team
linkzr needs to stay every match
"SHD is proud to announce the signing of a new coach, r/Overwatch!"
they need the widow picks
and the mcree wipes
omg yes
Jake normally uses Junkrat anyway
He honestly doesn't.
in their first game vs nyxl linkzr countered pine hard
hive mind can't be wrong, right?
it's perfect, china are communists, we can have communal coaching
He averaged maybe 25 minutes more time in Stage 1 on Junkrat than Profit on London.
People are just meme-tards
Also as Soldier
And don't look at numbers.
profit's junkrat is better than jakes
Lol
or the same idk
Profit missed that Mercy hiding bruh
Wut
well yeah, profit > jake, hands down
How can you say Profit is better
The JaKeraT is uncontested
I'm not even defending Jake, I'm just saying the Jakerat thing didnt' really exist in Stage 1.
oops
profit has a bowl cut thats what makes him fucking op
I love the emote of the guys face over his shoulder rn
Just people shoved their heads up their asses and forgot to come up for air.
what the fuck are you gonna do against a dude with a bowl cut
Dallas fans did it
bowl cut shuts fuckers down
There were like 4-5 players who had 2+ hours on Junkrat in Stage 1.
is SHD's ownership in any way related to SHD's players other than the current contract? as in, is there any chance that SHD will just decide "screw the current roster, let's sign a completely new team"
They're edgy tbh lol
Shit is dallas playing tonight
vs shock
dallas vs SFS
Bowl cut makes you look like a pretty boy rather than a tough guy lol
SHD's players were picked by a friend of the team who ended up as a SHD coach
he was punished since
bowl cuts are sexy asf
Here's my call out fo the Dallas - SFS game:
Babybay goes Widow.
Dallas gets fucked.
there are better players shanghai could have picked
Because they can't counter a widow.
I really, really want to see a team go full-on cancer comp at some point. Sym and Torb would be a must.
shock 3-1 dallas
Do you guys think Danteh improved to sinatraa's level yet
didn't dallas beat shock last stage though?
uh yeah
That was last stage.
I could see Shock beating Fuel tbh xD!
because if that's the case sinatraa doesn't have a place on shock
but now dallas is jacked on akm steroids
This Stage they can't beat a team who can field a decent Widow yet.
right now danteh is just a place holder for sinatraa
They also arenโt dependent on mercy anymore
It was lit
I wasn't joking at all.
Clearly the issue is that Shanghai Dragons all need the official Korean eSports bowl cut
LAV beat Dallas with their Mercy on Widowmaker.
xqc needs to play more robot space cow
kariv just took agilities job
I know, but it makes it look more entertaining as a story while being factually correct.
Soon
Kariv was their Mercy through all of Stage 1.
yeah
Since he was the only one who could play it well.
not many supports have practice on mercy
Mercy was busted during s1 so
they practiced ana, lucio, zen
the kariv is unleashed from the mercy chains
so i just realized we're already almost halfway through stage 2
Kariv is korean right?
Oh hey.
I can't spam Tryhard emojis to this woman
stage 1 felt much longer for some reason
Kariv is like transparently never seen the sun white.
Philly beat houston last time right?
lol she blends in with the audience then
I didnt watch owl till second week in s1
yeah philly reversed sweeped houston hard
Houston c9ed hard
I lowkey think Erin > Soe xD!
i'd smash erin
big if true
philly flies so low under the radar for me for some reason
29-0 loooool
I'm glad they got another female commentator so Soe can get a reprieve from the virgins.
Bronze
Bronze
silver
Soe is still in it
maybe like high plat?
gold
not seen Malik but maybe he's off this week or something idk
They're there, they just have a schedule.
I know a lot of people that commentate this game is masters at least
I don't know about soe
Plus, Malik is probably still laughing at calling out the 13 year olds in twitch chat.
Soe probably isn't but she's done other games too
soe is there for fan service
she seems to know a lot about the game
I see
yeah i first saw soe on dota ESL
Yeah I mean, plenty normie sports commentators aren't good at the sport. But you can be very knowledgeable
i kind of wish chobra was involved in OWL too
Triple tank again...because that worked the first 2 games 
You don't have to be good at the game tbh
Hell Goldenboye has been in casting since Halo on xbox lol
Maybe just have enough knowledge
yeah
she's a good presenter too
good at game = mechanical skill + knowledge, but you'd only need knowledge to be a decent enough commentator
although i'm sure good mechanical skills also give unique insights
like knowing how hard a certain play was to pull off, etc
hell look at how awkward half the pros are on camera
it seems like 2 tanks is a minimum. would you guys agree with that?
getting beaten in a 1v1 by a zen...
i've almost never seen a 1 tank comp on owl
FULL HOLD
I've seen solo tank before, but not as a longterm strat
I don't think 1 tank was done in OWL
GET THIS SHIT
Two in a row
Bro MG is playing better than the last time
if that was shadowburn that would've been team wipe
Took the D'va away from him.
"changing up their approach"
Playing the same as they played map 1?
Xushu is better at it anyway.
They rotated who was on what.
They put MG on Roadhog, Xushu to D'va.
Wtf is the caster saying
GG
COME ON SHANGHAI
WHAT IS HAPPENING
That pulse bomb didn't do jack shit
oh snap 1 set going to shanghai maybe?
LETS GO U FUCKERS
Wat
Shd didnโt change anything
Wow Shanghai managed to do it wow

Dragons!!!
shanghai won for once?
REVERSE SWEEP
FIVE ROUNDS LETS GO
Well
seoul aint SHT
They are good at triple tank
SEOUL DIED NASTY
why are we still hearing the korean commentary in the background
oh wow
Y'ALL I'M DEADASS CRYING I'M SO PROUD. I LOVE SHANGHAI
It's been like this for several minutes
is this real life?
Xushu is a way better D'va, gets better picks/damage. And Roadhog is beefy enough MG doesn't die instantly.
You're right
Someone fucked up backstage clearly

So you compensate for MG's bullshit.

yeah. i feel like seoul isn't really TOP TOP tier, despite the casters saying they're the best team in the game
well this is their "B-Team" w/e u call it
well this is the B team lol
oh yeah true
Though to be fair.
if jehong was sitting there idk man
Seoul's B team would still do well in OWL.
Jehong is not even playing
Get 6 ults for the win
they would
Just not top 3.
Seou lis using their backup players
Wait is this the subs of Seoul playing?
does seoul have the biggest roster in the league right now?
except tobi
That's why I don't see Jehong
Nah Seoul has always been smart about getting all their teammates on the stage.
i think london
It's a confidence boost for when you do need them.
oh yeah they're pretty huge
ah, I see seoul are doing the London Spitfire strategy of "don't defend point A and lose"
God, the Korean commentators are hotmicing again...
Yeah Seoul has 12 players total
Mg not sucking
omg come on!
Nvm
One more push
INTIMIDATION DRAGONBLADE

Are the Dragons the underdogs here then? I don't know much about OWL..

@fading wasp theyโve lost every series
If there is map 5 it will have 3 players switch

it's just logitech doesn't sponsor anywhere near as much as other companies
Dragons haven't won a single match set yet
