[fiery reef]

[brisk roost]

Yep

[tall sierra]

SHD barely had much time to mesh as a team with the two Korean's...yet

[indigo barn]

[tall sierra]

To be fair... SHD is at a huge disadvantage with the language barrier.

[balmy wolf]

[fading wasp]

[tall sierra]

6v2 for reals

[spring lintel]

i dunno but I am seeing pretty good players here

this is so embarssing

[tall sierra]

@paper crag They are definitely no strangers..

[serene tendon]

[paper crag]

geguri not playing because not in US

[onyx shore]

[solar trout]

stop dabbing

[spring lintel]

if they have both tanks and 1 dps on korean they can win

[torpid charm]

@rare sonnet yo I got out of the shower just in time

[paper crag]

haven't the koreans been in the US for like less than 48 hours?

[onyx shore]

i doubt it

[forest wharf]

[tall sierra]

@torpid charm 6v2 ... sad.

[spring lintel]

aww that sucks i though she might be here

[indigo barn]

they're still jetlagged bro

[torpid charm]

who's casting right now?

[onyx shore]

even with geguri playing in this match,idont think they can beat outlaws

[warped axle]

Do a Monte

[spring lintel]

jetlagged in 2v6

[tall sierra]

Well with Geguri it'd be 3v6

[torpid charm]

@tall sierra wait really? SAD

[onyx shore]

nah

i'ts 3v9

[solar trout]

Also probably dead tired due to scrims.

[spring lintel]

and still playing better

[tall sierra]

Watch the kill feed for SHD...

[spring lintel]

dude ado literally got 2 kills

with fearless

[solar trout]

SHD used to, and likely still does do like all day practice sessions

[paper crag]

so they said geguri will be here 3/23. do they mean she'll play then or she'll just get in the US that day?

[torpid charm]

SAD

[ruby pendant]

Don't matter how good new people are for Dragons, if they can't cooperate well together.

[tall sierra]

As we saw with SF and 150c

[torpid charm]

@paper crag she's not playing till stage 3

[paper crag]

if she's playing, doesn't that mean she'll also play within 48 hrs, if even 24 hrs, upon arriving lol

[spring lintel]

shd are gonna fuck up Df so bad, i am calling it

[rare sonnet]

LET MENDO FUCK

[paper crag]

oh okay

[spring lintel]

2 korean tanks + 1 korean dps

[paper crag]

so she'll be in the US on 3/23

[fading wasp]

Next Shanghai comp: Bastion + Sym + Torb + Orisa + Mercy + Moira. QP IN THE PROS, BABY!

[warped axle]

I'm excited for Stage 3

[spring lintel]

[fiery reef]

Finally get the first win, followed by another 50 losses in stage 3

[spring lintel]

didnt se it

[paper crag]

@fading wasp implying that's not a legit comp /s

[rare sonnet]

i actually wan to see meme symmetra vs SHD

[tall sierra]

We may see a similar progression with SHD next stage like we are seeing with FL.

[spring lintel]

i want to see that cause i know it can easily work

[whole mulch]

Message to Dallas Fuel: BUY KOREANS!

[spring lintel]

freefeel and mg need to be sacked

[fiery reef]

What if the SHD are actually all bronze players .. who just got where they are by wintrading

[fading wasp]

Jakemetra or riot

[spring lintel]

i can see them being masters

legit

[balmy wolf]

honesetly id believe that

[paper crag]

@whole mulch to that, Dallas Fuel answers: okay, we'll buy Rascal but either bench him or make AKM play Genji

[whole mulch]

lol

[forest wharf]

freefeel, mg, roshan, undad...

[balmy wolf]

the chinese ow esports scene seems pretty corrupted

[spring lintel]

DF needs a good tank duo simple

[forest wharf]

basically whole team

[tall sierra]

$ talks everywhere..

[fiery reef]

I kid, individually they are pretty good ... but its like they don't even communicate

[spring lintel]

undad is good

[forest wharf]

diyas cool i guess

[warped axle]

Undeadbeat

[spring lintel]

duya too

[paper crag]

chinese esports scene is notorious for corruption

[spring lintel]

they didnt have a dps problem thats for sure

[tall sierra]

yea..

[fiery reef]

Undad? didnt know he had kids

[balmy wolf]

chinese ppl in general are corrupt

[whole mulch]

Diya is the lowest performing tracer in the league. But it's partly due to them being stomped every game

[spring lintel]

LMAO

[kindred flicker]

Several players were chosen due to being under U4, the now former coach of Shanghai, in the Chinese league.

[woven solar]

it's a stupid idea to raise new players while fooling other old 4 players.

[whole mulch]

Are you joking Othinus

or serious

[spring lintel]

^

[woven solar]

ado and fearless are undoubtedly good players, but they have not got good result in korea also.

[tall sierra]

@balmy wolf Americans are just as corrupt. :?

[paper crag]

like, the korean esports scene is pretty corrupt to i'm sure, but it's more at the bureaucracy level and rarely has actual effects on players

[balmy wolf]

@tall sierra lol the chinese govt is much more corrupt than american govt

[fading wasp]

can we please not get into politics

[spring lintel]

when diya and undead get back, it's gonna be lit

[paper crag]

are they coming back though?

[tall sierra]

@paper crag Not corrupt ... Korean's are big on scrutinizing things so there's less bs there... very blunt so they'll call out and make their voices heard ...

[spring lintel]

they can put undead or diya on off tank

[torpid charm]

did 2nd map start yet

[fading wasp]

no

[tall sierra]

@balmy wolf You said people... didn't mention gov 😃

[spring lintel]

it is starting rn

[whole mulch]

Undead might not come back

[kindred flicker]

Probably run Diya and Ado together, occassionally putting in Undead

[spring lintel]

sucks he is a fuck boy, cause he is good.

[paper crag]

oh yeah diya doesn't really have a scandal

[tall sierra]

well here we gooo

[balmy wolf]

@tall sierra fair enough...

[paper crag]

i just lumped the two together lol

[tall sierra]

😃

[torpid charm]

Undead was good but the whole team played around them with kinda fucked them up

[balmy wolf]

man i can't watch the rest of this series, they're just too bad

[fading wasp]

Hearing comms on half these teams it sounds like it's just constant screaming. How could you possibly get stuff across like that?

[paper crag]

undead was pulling some plays on the last match he played too

lucky for ado i guess

[fiery reef]

I think SHD need like 3 more Koreans to help fill out the rooster, then they can have a 6 person korean starter

and finisher

[forest wharf]

JAKERAT

[fiery reef]

and mid game

[tall sierra]

The momentum here is so lopsided... feelsbadman

[fading wasp]

jakerat bestrat

[spring lintel]

mg might not actually be that bad

[whole mulch]

Mg is really good on ladder

[forest wharf]

mg just sucks at dva

[whole mulch]

but in owl he plays pretty bad

[spring lintel]

huge ass shatter

fearless

[paper crag]

i feel like SHD often lands good gravs that don't get followed up with anything

well, "good" as in it catches a lot of people

[tall sierra]

^

[spring lintel]

tf is that dva ult

wtf

[balmy wolf]

probably because they dont have the ult to follow up with it?

[paper crag]

although a 6 man grav at a bad timing could still be called a bad grav

[fading wasp]

As much as I joke, I respect the fact that Jake seems 100% cool with the fact that he basically a fucking meme at this point.

[spring lintel]

did boink die

that was hilarious

close one

[torpid charm]

oh wtf boink is in

[forest wharf]

[torpid charm]

[fading wasp]

Houston looks... muted

[spring lintel]

not sure why they played aggressively when they could have waited and graved

[tall sierra]

Not much bragging rights playing against the worst team with their circumstances. lol

[paper crag]

i say this every time, but good tracking looks so easy to do because it just so incredibly smooth

when pros do it

[indigo barn]

we're playing aggressive because we're scared of the dragons

[fading wasp]

Like, they almost look like they feel sorta bad

[tall sierra]

SHD makes houston look good because SHD are the bottom team

[spring lintel]

low sens makes it look easy

[tall sierra]

Watch Houston get clapped tomorrow..hopefully.

[paper crag]

like, if you didn't know good aim is hard, a complete stranger might just think "why are you so impressed"

[torpid charm]

who plays tomorrow

[indigo barn]

[indigo barn]

JAKE PAUL WINS 10/10

[paper crag]

[spring lintel]

they need a korean tracer

[tall sierra]

Hmm honestly too much hype and credit to jake... it's the team that allows him the opportunity to left click soldier ..let's be honest.

[paper crag]

Shanghai Jakegons could be a thing

[torpid charm]

I wish I could save SHD

[whole mulch]

Which teams don't have a korean tracer

[paper crag]

LOL

[indigo barn]

LETS GO JAKE PAULERS

[tall sierra]

Total rip if SHD doens't get this lol

Yikes

rip

[median saddle]

man

[whole mulch]

Just Houston?

[forest wharf]

that visor

[median saddle]

SHD is so terrible

[indigo barn]

JAKE IS GONNA RUN

[torpid charm]

ya just Houston

[tall sierra]

Close game though on that map

[spring lintel]

ado and fearless cant carry that much]

[warped axle]

still not playing great

[whole mulch]

lmao

[paper crag]

i can't believe SHD got backcapped like that AS I WAS TYPING "watch them get backcapped and lose this round"

[indigo barn]

JAKE RUNNING 900IQ

[spring lintel]

altering is 100% boosted

that movement

[torpid charm]

I wanna save Shanghai

[indigo barn]

ok

[paper crag]

right click, left click on save

[tall sierra]

Reverse sweep... talk of the century lol

[paper crag]

ctrl+s works too

[tall sierra]

wishful thinking

[torpid charm]

I gotta get on my path to pro rn so I can help Shanghai aaaaah

[oak oracle]

reverse weep 😢

[whole mulch]

Become a pro hanzo main

[forest wharf]

wheres sky at, they need another healer that isnt retarded

[torpid charm]

Hanzo? boi wtf

[whole mulch]

make hanzo the new meta

[paper crag]

okay. what do you think is worse for SHD right now? just continue to get wiped, or go to stage 5 and get rekt there?

i mean game 5

[tall sierra]

Getting wiped early..

[torpid charm]

new meta = 6 supports played at the same time

[tall sierra]

Game 5 would be nice for SHD

[indigo barn]

6 dps = so much damage

healing is overrated

[paper crag]

if it were me, i feel like going to game 5 and losing would be worse because i was so close to winning again. getting wiped is just like any other day for me lol

if I were SHD

[fiery reef]

They need Reinhardt Mercy, Torb, Bastion, Sym + one other if they want to win. Cheese it!

[tall sierra]

SHD go all tanks except Ado and Fearless

[indigo barn]

shanghai is still putting up good fights as usual

[shy wind]

I'm surprised Dragons don't just try cheese stuff

[tall sierra]

@VividHalf#6622 True that

[paper crag]

so... fearless, a main tank, shouldn't go tank?

[shy wind]

to get cheeky advantages

[indigo barn]

jake pulls out the bastion again

[tall sierra]

@paper crag the joke in that is SHD dps suck anyway..

[kindred flicker]

They'll get Sky and the former MY coach Rui soon, but I'm not sure if they'll make it time for this week

[torpid charm]

5king has a really cool Lucio tattoo

[indigo barn]

REVERSE SWEEP???!!!!

[tall sierra]

maybe..

[indigo barn]

SHUT UP PUCKETT

[paper crag]

i want this to go to a failed reverse sweep

that's how you maximize the size of hopes and dreams being crushed

[indigo barn]

kings row gg get ready for sum fireworks

[paper crag]

i still can't get over the fact that SHD got backcapped as i was half-jokingly typing the backcap thing

[tall sierra]

yea haha

rip

[torpid charm]

who did Shanghai get a full hold on against on Kings Row

[whole mulch]

seoul

[torpid charm]

oh okay thank you

[paper crag]

i mean, i expected outlaws to try backcapping that, but thought SHD would get back quickly enough

[rare sonnet]

undeadbeatdad

[paper crag]

but nope

[indigo barn]

shanghai took a map off seoul in both stages

[torpid charm]

amazing

[indigo barn]

took 2 maps off philly in stage 1

went to game 5

[tall sierra]

yea... sadly it means nothing

no profit in that

they need to win when it matters/counts

[indigo barn]

and got 4-0'ed by everyone else excet dallas

[paper crag]

it's almost like seoul gave them the map on purpose

[tall sierra]

yea

[torpid charm]

don't remind me about that because I almost had stroke, Philly the kings of Map 5 in stage 1

[tall sierra]

well seoul wasn't playing their usual squad that day?

[indigo barn]

its ok, shanghai will win vs london

[torpid charm]

I don't think so

I'll check

[paper crag]

yeah, but i think the general consensus is that Seoul's bench team is still a solid OWL team on its own

[tall sierra]

^^

[indigo barn]

seoul has a deep bench

[shy wind]

If Shanghai wins vs London

[forest wharf]

crumbz with that rape stache

[indigo barn]

there b team is just about as gud as a team

[shy wind]

I'll probably bury myself

[spring lintel]

the guy in the middle is a bot

[paper crag]

yeah i think seoul's B squad can safely be at the top of mid-tier or bottom of top-tier

[spring lintel]

u dont need that much practice

[tall sierra]

Mmmm I think the desk here takes too much in pondering on the taking of maps... that mean nothing

[spring lintel]

u either hit it or u dont

[torpid charm]

yeah they did play their B team that day

[tall sierra]

Ah yea...

Thx for checking

[indigo barn]

all sub team gg

[torpid charm]

np!

[indigo barn]

seoul has a mad deep bench tho

[tall sierra]

indeed

[torpid charm]

but their whole B team is fire much like London so ya

[paper crag]

yeah

[tall sierra]

Yup yup

[paper crag]

i wonder if it's a good thing that seoul and london hoard that much talent in their bench

[tall sierra]

Hence... #1, #2, #3 .. full Korean teams..NYXL, London, Seoul

[paper crag]

instead of letting them fly free on another team

[tall sierra]

If I was another team other than the top 3..I'd be eyeing to buy some of those players on the B squad.

[indigo barn]

nyxl's only subs are pine and janus

[tall sierra]

true

[spring lintel]

jesus reinforce is correct 100%

[tall sierra]

NXYL doesn't really have a B squad lol

[torpid charm]

what does Janus play again

[paper crag]

what did he say?

[indigo barn]

tank

[torpid charm]

okay

[rare sonnet]

'reverse sweep' is far too easy to talk about in OWL because maps going 2 wins one way then 2 the other is a 1/4 chance

[torpid charm]

*speedy talk^

[spring lintel]

these guys on the desk need to be changed

[paper crag]

@spring lintel what did reinforce say?

[tall sierra]

He has a point..

[rare sonnet]

why

[paper crag]

that was 100% correct?

[spring lintel]

he said it is possible for like 2-3 players to make a play and win the point

without much coms or practice

they are all experienced

[paper crag]

ah okay. thanks

41% accuracy with genji?

[spring lintel]

thats pretty good

[paper crag]

yeah

[whole mulch]

Wtf wait

oh nvm

[torpid charm]

maybe Shanghai can do some wonders on Kings Row

^I love Malik^

[paper crag]

didn't shanghai full hold against some strong team recently

at KR

[torpid charm]

Seoul

not sure who else

[paper crag]

oh that was seoul?

[torpid charm]

finna check

ya

[paper crag]

who tf is this

[forest wharf]

yea it was seoul b team

[paper crag]

nice. thanks

[torpid charm]

YES SPREE

I fucking love watching Spree on Zarya

[paper crag]

i feel bad for all these benched players that barely get any playtime

[tall sierra]

yea..

[whole mulch]

Don't

[tall sierra]

wasted potential

[paper crag]

so benched that i'm like "who tf is this"

[whole mulch]

they get paid to do nothing

Spree's a streamer and competitive tryhard

held both rank 1 and rank 2 on NA at the same time for a while

[paper crag]

yeah, but "getting paid to do nothing" this year might end up with "not getting paid to do anything" next year

[torpid charm]

Fusion still hasn't played Joemeister at all yet, makes me sad

[tall sierra]

It's two fold...

Most players have a passion for actually wanting to play...

For those that are happy sitting there to collect a pay check, doesn't deserve to be there in the first place.

[paper crag]

that was a pretty cool spray show

[torpid charm]

oh boy, it's Jakerat

I love how they're always leaving sprays around

[tall sierra]

Let's go SHD... at least take a map

[torpid charm]

YES MG

[indigo barn]

SPREE on WIDOW okAY

[forest wharf]

has spree even played this season?

[indigo barn]

lets just bench LINKzr real quick

yeah spree's played on this map

[whole mulch]

I think they're just giving spree playtime

[torpid charm]

yes

[indigo barn]

as zarya

[whole mulch]

because shanghai

[indigo barn]

but he played an ass zarya last game

[torpid charm]

^^^

wait nvm no arrows

when was the last time spree played?

[spring lintel]

Spree on widow? Wtf is this bm?

[tall sierra]

Fearless let's gooo

[torpid charm]

Shanghai coaches were fucking buggin for letting MG play D.va all that damn time

[spring lintel]

mg managed to fuck himself and ado

[tall sierra]

At this point...any progress with SHD just makes Houston look bad ...

1. Worst team in OWL.
2. Two new players..
3. No practice time really.
4. Jet lag
5. Language barrier...
6. Pressure to do well..

7. Idiot manager for SHD

[spring lintel]

amazing he just saved the enemy team from the blade

[tall sierra]

Taking just 1 map will be a victory for SHD.

Feelsbadman..

[spring lintel]

JAKE IS THE TWELFTH BEST DPS ON THE STAGE RIGHT NOW 4Head WHATS THAT? 4Head THE REFEREE IS A SILVER SYMMETRA MAIN? 4Head NEVER MIND, THIRTEENTH

this is one is hilarious

[paper crag]

i guess i can kind of understand why SHD is so reluctant to just give up and reset after a clearly lost fight

[tall sierra]

yea...

[torpid charm]

watching Shanghai plays makes me sad

[paper crag]

every time they lose a fight, outlaws just disrespects them so much and push them back so far

[tall sierra]

@torpid charm ikr. 😦

[paper crag]

like if they were against a stronger team, they'd respect it and not push out so hard

every lost fight just turns into a spawn camp for SHD

[tall sierra]

yea.. as I was saying...there really is no weight for bragging rights here for Houston...

[indigo barn]

yeah well duh of course

i mean its not obvious at all

[tall sierra]

When houston gets clapped by good teams, the fans are silent.. when they are winning agains the worst team, there is so much spam/toxicity lol

[spring lintel]

should be easy win for shd

but they suck dick

[tall sierra]

Yall should see the other chats... just redonkulous

@spring lintel yea super sad lol

rip

[indigo barn]

i'm in the outlaws discord

[torpid charm]

what are they saying

[indigo barn]

its quiet

so what are you saying

[spring lintel]

sad how they had ult advantage

[paper crag]

oh man every time i see the overtime wick burn out at max speed, i get so sad

[spring lintel]

they only needed to force the lucio ult first

blade + zen ult

[torpid charm]

it was lit ashell in Fusion discord when they played Shanghai but we felt bad because of the bullying

[paper crag]

wow they're unexpectedly calm with that fight

i almost expected them to just go WHOOOOOO

[tall sierra]

Actually OWL..give us a listen on SHD... we don't have to be able to understand 100% ...

[torpid charm]

biggravbiggravbiggrav

[spring lintel]

cause they are against bots

[tall sierra]

Very curious how their comms are

[spring lintel]

lol i wanna listen to shd coms

[tall sierra]

^^

[paper crag]

yeah. i just want to get a glimpse into their atmosphere

[median saddle]

i mean they have koreans now so i expect their comms to be even more cluttered

[paper crag]

we rarely hear the korean comms too

[tall sierra]

I bet just calling out by the names of the players yea

[spring lintel]

ado and fearless are so done with them,

[paper crag]

although we used to get more early stage 1

[tall sierra]

@median saddle very...huge disadvantage for SHD

[spring lintel]

i dont see anyone but diya ;and undead staying

the rest are bots in OWL

100% hook accuracy

[tall sierra]

sad day

[median saddle]

idk with a third korean maybe Gerguri can communicate dives better with Ado

[tall sierra]

100% accuracy easy against easy mode on training bots. 😦

Yea with a third Korean player it should help a lot

[spring lintel]

i feel so bad for ado and fearless, they are doing so good but their team is so bad.

[median saddle]

man if Dallas lose to Shanghai

[paper crag]

is the next logical move for SHD a korean support?

[tall sierra]

At least half of the team will be able to communicate

[median saddle]

that'd make me laugh

[tall sierra]

@spring lintel ikr? total rip ..

[spring lintel]

geguri will complete their team

[paper crag]

then they'll have 1 support, 1 main tank, 1 off tank, 1 dps

[spring lintel]

i would say they can win against DF

[torpid charm]

put me on SHD, I will save them somehow

[tall sierra]

@paper crag best move for SHD is just to get all Korean players at this point lol... already half way there.

[spring lintel]

fearless + geguri can create space for ado

to enable a winston u need a good dva

and dva is meta AF

[torpid charm]

SAD

[paper crag]

lol yeah but idk if it's realistic to make 3 simultaneous purchases on good koreans

[spring lintel]

what is five king doing

wtf

[tall sierra]

@torpid charm I was joking but actually serious at the same time when talking with one of my team members..that it'd be fun to skrim SHD lol

[median saddle]

which is sad because China's esports is usually really good

[tall sierra]

And that we probably wouldn't do that bad

[paper crag]

is it though?

[spring lintel]

china sucks in overwatch

[paper crag]

i feel like they go all out on MOBAs

[spring lintel]

they only have 1 good team

and they disbanded

[median saddle]

china does go all in in mobas

their csgo is ok

[worthy palm]

no they go all in pubg

[paper crag]

yeah. idk if i would call china's esport scene exactly healthy

[tall sierra]

I see a lot of chinese players in PUBG

[whole mulch]

What I heard is China does not want to replace their chinese players because then there would be 0 chinese players in OWL

[spring lintel]

never heard that they were good at anything really

they are okay

[tall sierra]

@whole mulch Likely very true..

[solar trout]

taiwan numbah one

[indigo barn]

REVERSE SWEEEP

[tall sierra]

But London, NYXL, etc..

[paper crag]

honestly, SHD might be better off if the individual players just joined other teams

[pearl stratus]

Eh 3 MY players are with SHD right now, Sky is 1, then 2 on their contenders team.

They're slowly bringing MY back.

[shy wind]

Are Korean

[tall sierra]

@paper crag I agree..

[whole mulch]

NYXL and london bought full korean teams, China wants Chinese players to win

[spring lintel]

they need a god tracer rn

[whole mulch]

they don't want to win under non-chinese teams

[paper crag]

i highly doubt that SHD in its current state can even play to their 100%

[spring lintel]

and they are goldne

[tall sierra]

@whole mulch True

[paper crag]

when their 100% may not even be good enough

[shy wind]

Plus London is All EU has

[paper crag]

well, EU does have mayhem

[pearl stratus]

This game isn't a good indicator anyway, so its early to say.

[paper crag]

if you count the players

[pearl stratus]

Ado and Fearless have been in the US for less than 36 hours.

[shy wind]

I mean kinda? But not really

[pearl stratus]

This is a no-scrim we don't want to forfeit match.

[spring lintel]

and playing better than their team LOL

[tall sierra]

@paper crag That's true...even a 100% new chinese squad wouldn't bring much hope at this point...

[pearl stratus]

Fearless is putting in some solid work, even with a weakened team right now.

[forest wharf]

oof fiveking with the 3-10

[woven solar]

fearless yes, but ado isnt.

[tall sierra]

To save face, I'd just pick up 3 other Korean players and make it a solid 6 stack

[pearl stratus]

Ado has no opening to do so though.

[spring lintel]

ado is doing so good for a genji

[pearl stratus]

That's less on him and more on how they're getting swarmed.

[woven solar]

he isnt good genji even in korea

[spring lintel]

as genji it's almost impossible to play solo

[tall sierra]

Given the dynamics of SHD...let alone the circumstances, the two newcomers are playing well

[spring lintel]

in pro play

[woven solar]

in the mvp space he is on bench always except apac

[pearl stratus]

Yeah, let them get Sky and Geguri and get some practice in.

[spring lintel]

what does sky play?

[pearl stratus]

Sky is an old MY Support.

he's Ana/Zen.

Which they sorely need.

[spring lintel]

they need a tracer god too

tracer god + sky

[pearl stratus]

Diya can do well on Tracer when he actually gets to focus on just it.,

[tall sierra]

Clone SBB....SHD needs to spend their money on that lol

[pearl stratus]

Sadly he was focusing on being everything but Tracer in Stage 1, we saw him on Genji, Pharah, etc.

[paper crag]

oh are ado and fearless from MVP?

[spring lintel]

if they had diya and undead in this match, i think this would be a very different match

even on tank they play better

[pearl stratus]

Diya more than Undead, Diya is more team oriented imo. Undead is the better dps but he tends to overcompensate and it shows in his positioning/fall back to McCree.

[woven solar]

fearless was not MVP

[tall sierra]

@spring lintel I agree... diya, undead, ado, fearless would be a better start

[pearl stratus]

His McCree is still fun as hell to watch though.

[paper crag]

oh okay

[pearl stratus]

Honestly MG isn't a half bad tracer.

All things considered.

[torpid charm]

MG isn't that bad on Tracer frfr

[paper crag]

but is it good enough, is the question i guess

in the sea of good tracers that is the OWL

[woven solar]

ado was in mvp space, geguri in rox, fearless in em

[pearl stratus]

No, but its still not garbage. Which I expected out of MG.

His Hog was a nice change of pace since he's a solid hog.

His Zarya plays well until he needs to ult.

Then he screws that up 100%

Diya is their best Zarya.

[torpid charm]

his D.va is pure shit, never wanna see it again

[paper crag]

soon to be geguri

[pearl stratus]

Nope.

[woven solar]

no geguri is best zarya in SD

[pearl stratus]

Diya will still play it.

Because you won't drop the D'va for it.

[paper crag]

that still wouldn't change the fact that zarya is the better geguri

[spring lintel]

lets see how ado does on widow

mg is a bot on tracer

[paper crag]

just that it won't be as utilized as often

[pearl stratus]

Poor Ado.

His first Widow v Widow is with the best widow battler in the league.

lol

[paper crag]

lol

[spring lintel]

if u wanna know why link is missing

it's because he is trying to dodge at the same time

might sounds weird but it is a thing

fearless gave up on life

[pearl stratus]

I mean it was faster than getting to the cliff to jump off.

[forest wharf]

oh no jake tracer

[pearl stratus]

And he probabyl would have died anyway.

So saves time.

[paper crag]

hopefully the korean additions won't blame themselves for not being able to carry the game less than 48 hrs after being in the US

[spring lintel]

yeah i know but he wasnt even doing damage or even moving

[paper crag]

and let it affet their future performance

[torpid charm]

that was fucking dirty

[spring lintel]

i didnt see it 😭

[torpid charm]

good

because it was sad

[pearl stratus]

Jakes Tracer slowly, slowly turning into not garbage.

[spring lintel]

he is smart af

[pearl stratus]

Fiveking is pretty good.

Altering is iffy.

Freefeel is horrible.

[spring lintel]

gg

no way they are gonna win ths

[solar trout]

This week.
HOU
NYXL
SFS

Seoul
VAL
LDN

LDN
NYE
BOS

Seoul
NYXL

Is how I see it going

[tall sierra]

^^

[paper crag]

this is gonna be a GREAT week for Fuel

[forest wharf]

rip

[spring lintel]

fuel is gonna be the first team to lose to shd

[paper crag]

Fuel gonna get two wins this week

[tall sierra]

Total rip

[pearl stratus]

"The comms aren't there yet" Thanks for the insightful analytics.

[tall sierra]

lol

ikr

[pearl stratus]

On the two korean kids who've been here for less than two days

[pallid mist]

I've not been keeping up with OW eS but every time I tune in, Shanghai Dragons get their asses kicked

[torpid charm]

Philly better catch this fucking W on Friday

[spring lintel]

they might have not known evenm

[pearl stratus]

I know Ado knows some Chinese.

Since they got them tutors.

[tall sierra]

@pallid mist yea it has been the case..

[pearl stratus]

But not enough to actually... do anything yet.

[paper crag]

pretty accurate analysis, Not Lunaris

[spring lintel]

zp is weird today

[tall sierra]

I'd be shocked if SHD holds this

[spring lintel]

he is not catching dva matrix stuff

[torpid charm]

Muma might as well just play Symm at this point

[spring lintel]

fearless is so done LMAO

[tall sierra]

Houston might as well go full pirate for giggles

[spring lintel]

it's like xqc when he gets mad

[paper crag]

casual headshot

[torpid charm]

brb crying

[forest wharf]

welp

[pearl stratus]

He's got to be really frustrated, he doesn't speak the language and he's playing when really he shouldn't be.

[spring lintel]

AFK

lmaaaaaao

[pearl stratus]

And getting destroyed.

[paper crag]

rage pause

[torpid charm]

A PAUSE

[solar trout]

heh

[pallid mist]

Can't stall cart so stall game irl

[torpid charm]

it's been a long time since we've had one of those

[pallid mist]

[spring lintel]

linkzr got the kill and asked for a pause

[tall sierra]

Pause for .... to give SHD a breather

[torpid charm]

WE BACK

[pearl stratus]

I do think when SHD gets the break at the end of the Stage.

It looks like Fearless can put in some real work.

[spring lintel]

altering such a bot

[paper crag]

Fearless and Ado: hold on, pause the game. we need to google Chinese swear words

[spring lintel]

why is he peeking.

[tall sierra]

@paper crag haha! classic..

Google translator

[torpid charm]

barely anyone cheering

rawkus so thicc oml

[indigo barn]

we win bc rawkus is thicc

[torpid charm]

but uuuuuh today's games went by hella quick

[forest wharf]

"...yay i guess"

[paper crag]

it's a "positive" thing?

i mean, "dont be so disappointed," alright, but "positive?"

[torpid charm]

Rawkus too thicc

[pearl stratus]

I mean for taking two players who don't speak your language and basically quick play.

They could have done a LOT worse.

[tall sierra]

true

[pearl stratus]

So I can see some positivity.

You saw that Fearless is going to be capable of doing some crazy work.

[tall sierra]

well hope for a 4-0 clap tomorrow...let's go Seoul

[indigo barn]

hell no

[torpid charm]

[pearl stratus]

That was with literally 0 cohesion and preparation.

[indigo barn]

nyxl vs dallas fuel baby

[pearl stratus]

And Fearless still looked decent.

[tall sierra]

With all things considered, Ado and fearless played well..

[pearl stratus]

Ado less so.

But he got focused pretty hard.

MG was relatively ignored.

[torpid charm]

my boys don't play again till Friday

[tall sierra]

Yea...and the lack of support from the team

[paper crag]

okay that has got to be the lowest effort sign i've seen so far

[torpid charm]

I'm not even interested in any of these games for tomorrow/today, sad

[pearl stratus]

I think, in the long run, they'll be okay. And hopefully can show up some for Stage 3.

I still want Houston to pick up Davin for Linkzr though.

Just cut Clockwork.

[paper crag]

i'm just looking forward to the fuel vs dragons game 1 next stage

[torpid charm]

yes

[paper crag]

wow fusion is performing this stage

[torpid charm]

hoping stage 3 goes by hella fast so I can finally watch Sado play

[indigo barn]

nah man fuel vs nyxl is the game to watch

[paper crag]

dude, this week is the week that fuel finally gets that 2 wins

[indigo barn]

ikR

[paper crag]

nyxl and london? easy 4-0s

[torpid charm]

omfg the loml Bren on the desk tomorrow

[indigo barn]

gg

[pearl stratus]

Crumbs really needs to get rid of his pedo moustache.

[torpid charm]

gg gd

[pearl stratus]

That thing is so creepy.

Get those kids in the audience away from the desk.

[torpid charm]

I don't fw it either
