can u guys plz stop memeing
makes sense
logix is 3
makes sense
4
dude 4 people makes no sense
taimou is 2
that's not realistic at all
fourth is in his hat
4 people? what? psh
maybe the fourth is very small
I WILL tell you that rawkus is 2 people too
except it's one person entirely for the ass
one is his butt
Why will no one ever tell me the secret
lol
T H I C C B O I
dude i told you so many sickrits
theres no secret because overwatch is broken @brazen mango
no u said memes
thats the sad truth
what u mean
lol if you ask meme question like that, you're gonna get meme answers
we actually gave you real serious answers at first
@brazen mango what rank are you now
I'm being for reals though
wtf are you guys talking about? am I in the right channel?
learn from mistakes, learn from watching pros

OOOOOFFFFFF T O P I C
@coarse willow I can't rank yet I'm level 21
strategy
practice mechanical skills
why not exactly
u just got the game
become jjonak
jjonak is omnic
ur level 21
you can't be jjonak
exacto
youll be as good as the current pros in about a year if you always practice
and by that time the pros will be 10x better
can we make zen hitscan
so
oh
yea
and able to attack while trans
what's a hitscan
and his charge shots all hit at once, not fly in a row
also infinite ammo during trans pls
guys please go talk this coaching stuff else, can we please keep talking about the matches?
if you feel like it
i mean... what else is there to talk about this game at this point
we're not even talking about dynasty anymore in vc
so it's fair game if there's nothing more to add
meanwhile
this is sad
Freefeel used ult
im king crimson
which maps did ado play?
OMG GUYS ITS ONLY 3-0 WE CAN COME BACK
the latter 2?
Lol, Dynasty fan have deep fear of Dragons.
They fear the day they lose to Dragons
@coarse willow to be fair, it wasn't ez, the first two map was kind of them
they just choked

in the worse possible way
Collin, you're another Frieza, you'll be in for a rude awakening. The first map scared Dynasty fans, and now you feel relieved to have won.
no u
@brazen mango you new to game?
@vagrant niche yes
go watch Dafran and Kabaji
watch him be like "lul my smurf is level 21, i'm actually top 500 on my main"
and learn from them
ive been playing the game since it came out and im fuckin silver
i thought crimson was a seoul fan
@vagrant niche dude, we've told him every real advice that anyone could give
lol he switched
lol
he's just trolling
how old are you @brazen mango
yeah because you kept asking after people gave you serious answers
@coarse willow 19
interesting
yeah you're way too old to be asking that and not be trolling
and too old to have just bought overwatch and be asking how you can go pro lol
oof
trolls will troll
@grizzled trout Dragons need some support too!
so why does it feel like i literally saw LA vs LA last week
oh yea LA vs LA is on right?
other than XL
Gladiators already won
they 2 previous matches were predictable
mhm
No competition really
you can see the future right
the last LA vs LA was week 3 so it's not close enough to the end of stage 3
to make it feel like they were back to back
just like when u said shanghai would reverse sweep xd
@coarse willow It's so obvious
mmm
valiant is good
im not even gonna make a prediciton for this match tho i think itll be close
@coarse willow Dragons had the potential to reverse sweep, they didn't want to waste their energy
Save it for next game
dragons is saving their energy for NYXL
I'm not even trolling
when they see them in playoffs
I'm actually passionate about esports
@paper crag Yes, they want to defeat Excelsior
haHAA
Dragons next match is Outlaws though
oof
They only played around with Dynasty
and experimented with comps
mhm
i wanna know how old u are @ruby pendant
they used mei, to show their disrespect Dynasty and full held them
they dont show disrespect
Obviously, Dragons were underestimated Dynasty, and paid for it
they are friends
i wonder if seoul still considers themselves top tier
i know they know they are doing bad
@grizzled trout i wouldnt take him seriously, im guessing hes either 10 years old or very high
but do they know WHY?
@grizzled trout you're right
i mean yeah but the problem isnt that easy to fix
They are friends, they are very close
what happened to miro btw? one day RJH was winston, then miro briefly came back, and we had kuki today
although i'm guessing kuki was more of seoul going "lul SHD"
they are experimenting with tanks
seoul needs to stop experimenting
@coarse willow 59
.....very sad now
they have been doing it all season
i think kuki is beter than miro
seoul needed to stop experimenting from stage 1 week 2
at certain heroes
my heart is ripped
calm tf down dude
they kept leaking maps against low tier teams in the name of experiment
I'm about to cry dude
kept getting shafted out of playoffs
and i don't even know if they got much out of those experiments
@paper crag That's a good thing
actually no
ya know what else is a good thing
If they were to make it to Grand finals, they would get destroyed if this is the best they can do
the reason they were switching
SHD is going 0-40 XDDDDD
this its the best seoul
the whole point of experimenting is so that you can devise good strats to actually win the season playoffs
this seoul is highly tilted
but what good is everything if you can't get there
Dynasty is a good team, but I don't know what happened to them
i think miro not adapting to the scene was huge
that used to be a huge factor in seoul
first it was the A roster and B roster shit, now we've gotten to putting supports on off tank
then ppl adapted to him
yeah the A roster B roster was pretty shit
which is funny because the B roster is probably still good enough to be a standalone OWL team lol
but they somehow found the perfect ratio between A and B rosters that would reliably lose them games
hope we see better next year
i mean, seoul's B roster was still solidly better than SHD lol
well
or Fuel, or Mayhem for at least the first 2 stages
i feel like team A and B were so separated that they couldn't work together when mixed on OWL matches
and seoul coaching staff somehow figured out the worst ratio of A and B every game
And switching ur on fire dps
yeah
like when fleta was doing good in a seires
Mayhem learned that from Seoul too lol
they would swap him
Logix on fire? Better switch Zappis in!
is OWL season 2 gonna be in LA still?
Oh shit, we lost the map with Zappis? Switch Logix back in!
need to go to seoul with the keague being full of koreans
Logix is no longer on fire
they be getting home sick af
balance patch
nerf koreans
they got nerfed
i think NYXL just has an above average tolerance for Koreans
seoul is throwing so they dont have to go to the playoffs so they can go home
Seoul and London are OD'ing on their 11 Korean squads
owl is throwing so they can die
blizzard secretly nerfed everyone with a seoul skin on
lol
yo real talk though, back in late 2000s, a Korean caster rigged WC3 maps so orcs would be stronger and night elves would be weaker
"EZ WIN BRO"
on this korean tournament
because night elves were considered OP or something
i still think it's kinda funny that OWL players have back numbers
yea i dont think anyone cares about their numbers
i couldnt name one OWL players' number
i know fate and fissure
lol
i have no clue
i think there are a couple 22s
and a couple 1s
i know theres a few duplicate numbers
effect 1 maybe?
i have no clue
lol you know what's real memey?
even the team rosters on OWL website doesn't show their numbers
WHAT IN TARNATION
wtf is this
WTF
ooh boy
THE FRICK IS THIS
WTF am I watching?>
Valiant's entrance tho
magine
they look like they went to applebees with their friends for a birthday party, and the crowd of waiters are coming out to sing happy birthday for them
they just walk out with a giant reinhardt with a sheild
that's the Applebee's happy birthday face
lol
"wtf lol i appreciate it guys but nobody asked for this and this is fucking embarrassing i secretly hate you all"
well now this game is way too overhyped
did i miss something? why did they boooh soon?
sooooooooooooooooooooooon
oh
i actually hate it
lmao
@idle beacon They were saying "sooooooooooooooooon"
HAHAAH
they did it for Moo, a Dota player
y
BORINNNGGGG
it really sounded like 'booooooooh' to me ^^
they think it's cute that it sounds like boooo
but it's actually cheering
but it's not creative
it's just stupid
cringe
Sheilds up 

spicy
lol
LOADGERY
WINGS DOWN VS SHIELD CRUSHED
Was that murder just now?
GO GLADS!
BARRIER IS DOWN
Overcringe league
GO VALIANT!
omg
GLADS SHIELD ISNT MADE OF VIBRANIUM
i want every new patch, hero, map to be implemented on OWL when they're released on live server
give us the shitshow
so i'm guessing the broadcast is using the highest graphics settings across the board, right?
so theyre gonna move down
would be dumb not to, right?
TBH if Seoul made it to the playoffs they would just be a disappointment
Yeah lol
not really
They'd get rolled by NY or not even NY actually
id be happy
just to make it to playoffs
but
not looking good
i mean i think theres a good chance
Going to bed lol
as long as boston keeps shitting the bed
Los Angeles is gonna win anyway
you right
i wonder which team will be the first team to pull a dodgers
and have an entire team jump cities
This is why I love Valiant vs Glads so much
THEY ROLLIN
@ruby pendant You always seem to be on the opposite team that I cheer for
Something fishy here
i feel like LA vs LA is the only real rivalry on OWL
lol
that's not a meme rivalry
i mean yeah but are they close?
yes
Prob not this stage
See how Dallas been performing recently?
Nah
houston is terrible lately
Technically cause Glads and Shock benefit more than Houston and Dallas did
let's just consider the three Dallas vs Houstons we've had so far
not how they're doing against other teams
But we easily rolled London and beat Boston again
I know Houston always beats London but this time it's a 4-0
LA vs LA is pretty consistently good
didn't Dallas get their asses handed to them by Houston in the last 3
nah
i think the biggest part of a rivalry is the games they've played against each other
Anyway Kyky has a better relationship to the players in Houston rather than Dallas it seems
not how they're kinda doing in general this stage
Since they don't really have a problem with him
i would love to see some close matches between houston and dallas though
2-3
i also want a paris team
i want an OWL team that isnt from LA, Texas, or New England
literally those 3 places
is all the american teams
gimme a midwest team
what a roll
Sheilds down 
Nebraska Barnstormers
WHOO
can we get two teams from Kentucky so we can have a Kentucky Derby
north and south korea don't really have that much of a rivalry lol
the bigger rivalry is South Korea vs Japan
they used to
nah not even back then
ummm
it was a proxy war
theyve always been arch rivals
they only have a border that is guarded 24/7 and anyone who tries to cross is shot to death instantly
because there was a proxy war between ideals?
yeah they're at war, but that's different from a rivalry
mmmm
there's no real competition going on like "oh they're doing XYZ, we have to beat them"
it's just "let's discourage them from attacking us"
"gtfo my land"
yea thats the smart idea lol
there's no competition in GDP, technology, military prowess, etc
Holy flex comps
you rite
lol real talk though
but is she north or south korean
wheres my dva animated short
but real talk, i guarantee you seoul vs tokyo is a bigger rivalry than seoul vs pyongyang
japan should have a team
if Japan had enough players to form a team that can stand up to Korean all-star
in WC
it'd be hype as hell match
russia should have a team
lol
theyd have to make it so that bastion was always in tank mode for them
lmao
they said they are going to have more EU teams
i'm surprised how unsuccessful China is at OW
Berlin is confirmed
lol
and Pacific Asia
such a big country... why the lack of talent?
Paris has to be next for eu
like you'd expect multiple teams from china just looking at their population
Paris and Berlin seem like good places
well aparently china is big on OW... just not the players they got for OWL
Berlin is confirmed
i think Toronto is an academy team for one of the teams
toronto does have a contenders team
aren't they an academy team for an OWL team
i forget which team though
boston?
ny?
something like that
i thought boston had a boston U
so berlin is confirmed?
how many teams are they adding?
i dont get what happened wasnt fate in the air?
He did somehow it didn't connect on the falling rein and the dva behind him
how did the shatter not connect
Yeah no clue
oh so fissure did ult but somehow didn't stun anyone?
thats gotta be real frustrating
yeah
Rein was falling mid air and it should have connected
so weird because sometimes it feels like the hitbox is 50 feet tall
At least it was a tie
and then sometimes it's like paper thin
trying to decipher the noise during teamfights in valiant discord
monte is tilting so hard
shield bash tire is pretty bold
WHy nobody healed the bastion??????
Holy smokes
bastion was also in a weird position
Damn if only s4 wasn't getting shit on in the widow duels 
wasnt getting much done
considering the fire surefour's been running lately, very surprising
wow, thought the match would have been over by now
the sticks these tracers pull out never ceases to amaze me
all of them
they turn their camera in to a blur and somehow a stick appears
Really shit defense from glads
I have no skin in this game but this is some good overwatch to watch
can't wait for the first doping / hacking scandal .. soon sucked ass in all other stages .. now he's poppin off more than fleta and pine .. just huge bullshit
I mean, all these guys are on a pretty high level and this is their full time job
but sure, I'm sure there will eventually be a scandal lol
hacking would surprise me given how controlled the machines appear to be
still not double draw in all of OWL
this map pool can't double draw past the first two maps right?
yeah
both capture point maps are first
S4 why did you have to go cold this match 
only control point is impossible to draw. you can still draw on the other 3. just unlikely on escort.

this literally cant be closer
That doomfist wtf
fissure held shatter for too long
Wtf losing a fight to a flank while you have infrasight up 
wow
Yikes
fuckin lucky assholes
Fuck Valiant
i so hate valiants

There goes their playoff spot
@brisk roost Looks like Valiant won.
this will be hard for glads to keep that playoffs spot
but then again .. valiant gonna get whooped twice aswell
have they ever won vs spitfire?
i mean if valiants ever won vs spitfire
just an fyi
dream team stage 2 fuel used the same strategy of picking out fissure before he can do damage
and it worked
Fissure died with ult twice in overtime that map
he even died before he could pop ultimate, they did the reverse against agilities on pharah too
And went void went back to pressure the Winston on his backline, fissure pushed on by himself and died on the last map
oh, and glad has beaten spitfire both times
@cerulean plume hi I'm New
Shanghai vs Dragons 🤣
never forget... Dallas vs. Fuel
Who's good and who's evil in Dallas vs Fuel?
Dallas are the ones with Mickie on Brigitte and Seagull on D.Va, and Fuel are the ones with Taimou on Winston and AKM on Genji?
Or the other way round?
I mean, they say that the trip they took to Dallas to meet the fans had a positive impact on them
yeah but everything about dallas sports is terrible
While their downfall started when they took the Fuel branding
or was it when they took the dallas branding 
no seriously though fuck everything about dallas sports teams
twice
Fortunately we are now going 🆙 😃
Anyway, super important match today
I hope they will play at least as good as they did against Philly
No Dallas v Nyxl this stage
dallas's matchup is always lucky
they always face the dragons every stage,so that's a free win
and this stage they wont face nyxl,so that's a -4 not added to their record
what's nyxl

!tracer
@torpid charm, I've sent you a DM with all my commands!
!players NYXL
No such team 'NYXL', for full teams list please type !teams
SHD frustrates me
every single time I've watched them on hanamura they've done the same exact thing
they bash their head against the wall with dive and then lose because they don't swap when it doesn't work
Freefeel made me rage last night so badly
they could literally have copied seoul's strat to rush the first point and then swapped back to dive to throw seoul off
and be able to actually do something
instead of just bashing their heads against the wall like every single time they're on Hanamura attack
Did anybody watch Beat Invitational season 4 the GOATS are insane!
so Shanghai still bad
They've got some great players
but they're the worst team
I mean the double support kill on dorado attack and then that followup on fleta, that was insane
it looked like ado was aimbotting
kinda bonkos
so did Shanghai play good at all besides this
they'll win someday
Shanghai is basically a bunch of good players in a pile
They're not going to win until they become a team
Yes Freekill
they only allowed Seoul to get one point on Hanamura, then couldn't even get a single tick on their attack
Their Hanamura attack strategy physically hurts
that was the theme for the match
They always run dive, trickle in, and then lose
EVERY TIME
They could just go rein/zarya/lucio which is much more forgiving of less than pixel perfect coordination
and then swap back to dive for B to confuse Seoul
or whichever team they're against

that's coaching though. A competent coach would have said "DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT"
ok Shanghai ain't winning tomorrow
Dive can work on Hanamura attack, though
shite
It just needs high cohesion
Both tanks need to move in step and the supports need to move with them
can we get some better supports for Shanghai also
Dragons need a new Zen or something
One that can defend himself atleast a little so their teammates can get there before he dies
I want to see ado, diya, and geguri somewhere else
or the rest of SHD somewhere else
why don't we just get rid of Shanghai
hell, team up geguri with xQc
they've been getting on pretty well
and you need a rein to your zarya
we rename Shanghai- Irish potates
think the Spitfire will try and sign more Europeans and phase out the all koreans?
They're probably scouting already
Just put the entire XL squad as team korea
Monte gets free prediction wins and they win 3rd year in a row
OH LET'S BREAK IT DOWN
never forget Saudi Arabia was screwed
Aussie Wins
Russia will win
Is Custa the only aussie in OWL?

nobody has seen to know for now
Next week
https://clips.twitch.tv/SleepyEmpathicWeaselDoggo poggers my doggies
isn't Emongg technically part of Philly Fusion
thats what i meant
rigged because he's a cunt
I mean yeah, obviously
if you say everyone voted for him
then it's literally rigged
and rightly so
because he's a cunt
But he is a nice dude
I wanna know who's supplying her these
maybe she found like a joke book she's been using to study english
I mean it's not unlikely
I'm getting "two rats in a fucking sock" vibes from this
except less expletives
"All committee members and players are subject to approval by Blizzard."
right at the end of that page
only a matter of time
Why didnt dafran win the votes?
cuz he wasn't up for community lead and GM/Coach was a top500 vote?
aka he got no votes
cause it's dafran
spriteguy and I explained it
he wasn't up for community lead?
what is that even supposed to mean?
if your from Denmark vote me boys for Community lead, I am at the way bottom! :DDDDDDDDD
https://t.co/7RhI2qd777
877
are you saying Bliz took him off the list so he wouldn't get voted?
aka, shadowbanning 
who even is this guy?
that's the guy who won
not even his tweets followers can get compared to Dafran
where did he pulled that win from?
"All committee members and players are subject to approval by Blizzard."
what's so hard to understand about this line
next time vote for someone who isn't a liability
I couldn't vote for him cause i'm on US, i voted for kicked tripod, but i'm happen aero won
who are going to be the players?
Shock, Houston and Seagull?
lol rigged
#JusticeForDafran
yeah, shock houston and seagull pretty much
this is literally justice for dafran
he's an idiot who breaks guidelines, and gets punished
what do you guys think new EU based team would be made of?
hopefully EU players

man fuck Cloud 9
you mean korean
Nah they'll get their own franchises, and there's only so many good players
Question is would new franchises gamble on failed bench owl players instead of new prospects 🤔
honestly im hoping for a canadian team
I mean EU is the second best pool of players after Korea
and Korea is limited
so, lots if not most of new players coming in will be european
I think once you start training new talent you actually get results, where as before people thought Koreans were clearly superior
And in some aspects they are
But not by a mile
koreans naturally gel well with each other
except Jjonak
since unlike EU, they're all from the same country
his spot is secured
Koreans would have to be retarded to exclude Jjonak
there are 3 full korean teams, and only one of them is clearly superior to anyone else
Yep
actuall
i'm going to say
it's going to be mostly XL team
cause they know how to play and set up Jjonak
the other teams don't have exp playing like that
you really have to play around Jjonak
and let him do his stuff, not every other Korean team does this
so XL has to be there as well
I would say MAYBE Fleta comes
but even then
who knows
Libero always works
doubt they will put anybody on Tracer but SBB cause again, he knows how to play around Jjonak
unlike others
if anyone is gonna be swapped into the nyxl core, it's gonna be Gesture
they're all fench
and if you're swapping gesture in, might as well bring profit
Who are we left on USA for dps? not having DreamKazper is going to hurt now
Danteh?
Seagull?
inb4 J LUL K E
danteh, sinatraa, seagull, babybay
yes
so is Space
Muma or Super?
naw, just put Muma with Space
but Muma might work better with Coolmatt
i don't know
team synergy is going to be one thing
i don't know if everybody can start fresh from 0 and create new synergies
when they been playing for months
yeah but, we're talking about players from Houston and San Francisco. It's not like you're breaking a golden partnership
maybe put Sleepy on Zen, he's better than Thiccus

London vs Uprising? Not sure who would win.
Idk if this is the right channel to ask this, but what are some colleges with esports programs? I'm trying to look into it, trying to transfer.
esports?
i don't know honestly, that sounds like something they would teach on California
@brittle walrus#025http://www.espn.com/esports/story/_/id/21152905/college-esports-list-varsity-esports-programs-north-america
Not that many, some colleges may not be included in that list which have tried to set up some Overwatch competitive tournament teams.
thank you!!
Yeah its hard to find actual lists and not just random ones.
TESPA has a nice listing I guess
UK on suicide watch rn
When aren't they
When we don't have ChipSa aka Greasy Harry Potter as the community lead
A lot of universities participate in Overwatch tournaments
Sorry didn’t see timestamp
what players do you guys think new EU based team would be made of?
Hi
I'm hoping a couple of my CIShope boys get picked up
oh thank fuck not hex
What?
also probably more ex-rogue poaching, from Eagle
Hex is my favorite.
"Not Monte" is my favorite
I think Hex and Auguste are the casters for the middle round on Thursday.
Haha
"Not Monte"
That's so rude.
¯_(ツ)_/¯
What don't you like about Monte?
The European #1 team beat the #1 U.S team, many people to choose from
but I can't stand his takes
I don't dislike Puckett, he's an upbeat guy but I feel like he intentionally hams it up too much.
oh he definitely does
If Puckett stopped trying, and just you know, was more natural and relaxed, I'd like him a lot more.
I think it works for the crowd tho
Yeah, you're right. He's also a stage presenter, not just a broadcasting presenter.
Valk out for Boston
slightly ot but yesterday they've shown an interview with NYXL guys about a boston rivalry and how they're gonna play in NY
seems like they've really embraced the city even if they don't play there yet
It's great to see after all the "they're not even from the city ugh" takes
Fusion's been doing stuff in the city too
Yeah, I remember that.
Pine said he wanted to face Boston because that's a traditional rivalry.
You know Pine is a chubby guy, but like, he's also been blessed with the frame of a rugby player, you know? It does not help him look less of a unit.
Oh dear.
I think London's going to stop at two caps.
Ouch
Ooph ow
London
what happened to stage one London?
what was that lmao
Boston's Zen be saving them
These Toyota adverts are so bad
Who the hell would buy a CH-R over a used CR-V anyway?
300 iq
what happened to boston
Was that a mother fucking Harambe referance?
mistakes is playing yeet way too defensively
It seems like London is as good as Boston
but London can't fight back the Boston attack?
Ehhh
And what about the lack of British overwatch players in london?
In my experience "yeet" is a noise that accompanies throwing something
it also sounds like part of Brigitte's name, and is reminiscent of whip shot
Nop
nope
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yq6hK1Gi59s @opaque cargo
In case you had trouble pronouncing Brigitte's name, this should clear it up. Learn more: overwatchleague.com Watch all the action: twitch.tv/overwatchleague...
rip
ruuuule britannia
lol
and saying "yeet" is much faster than saying "brigitte"
lol
brit team best team gonna take the final stage
Na Dallas
so hyped for the Dallas vs San Francisco match, rooting for Dallas ( cause i'm from Texas and in the Dallas metroplex area )
thats a definite
can't wait for season 2 Dallas with a new clean sheet to start with
Yea
is boston winless in this stage?
yeah
feelsbadman
for now
do they play shd this stage?

?
