Omg can people stop complaining about Goats from Brazil
balmy wolf
?
rare sonnet
Canada literally ran goats with one change
But no hate for them, leave Brasil alone 😦
balmy wolf
it's cause thats all they're running
and its kind of boring to watch
I don't hate Brasil
I've stuck up for them
rare sonnet
Canada is running the same comp too
It’s also boring
If you’re going to use that excuse
balmy wolf
nah canada is running a sombra variant
and I've called out Agilities' blunders all over
karmic grotto
Canada might have problem if they keep running the same heroes?
balmy wolf
and with surefours sombra is actually fun to watch
balmy wolf
@karmic grotto nah they are saving their strats against better teams
rare sonnet
Because you have to spy check which is so weird
karmic grotto
Better teams as USA?
balmy wolf
nah I mean at blizz con

ugh monte ruined a good moment
rare sonnet
Why
balmy wolf
xQc was MVP last world cup and so the caster said "who is gonna be it from Canada if not you this year?"
xQc said "agilities on Lucio" in an obvious shoutout for the potg boop
Crimzo --- also OWL capable
he is so annoying really incapable of explaining anything
rare sonnet
Well that didn’t tell me anything
balmy wolf
and xQc's interview was the good moment
rare sonnet
And then monte existed?
balmy wolf
and then monte started speaking

The only SA player who is in OWL is Hydration
balmy wolf
just look at monte's twitter

And get over it

But he has American nationality

Brazil is not as well in sync in strategies as Canada, so Canada exploited them.

They are, and Norway is too, could have won the match
rare sonnet
I’m happy that Brazil has shown that they are multi-lingual to the people that said they could never be in OWL due to language
Puts korea to shame lol
ruby pendant
@rare sonnet lol who said that?
rare sonnet
Someone in this channel during Can vs Bra
rare sonnet
Their support line is good
balmy wolf
maybe not as full-time starters but easily capable
I did and I never specifically said brazillians. I said if you can't speak english, I don't think you are able to play in owl
the ana player I don't think is ready
read next time thnx
needs a bit of work
but
that comes quick
rare sonnet
Go back under your bridge @balmy wolf
balmy wolf
I never said they can't speak you thick skull
so many koreans cannot speak english yet they play in OWL
then retard comes out from the woodworks and talks trash again
no surprise
ignore him @rare sonnet
rare sonnet
Ever since you talked in this channel nobody has liked you, maybe you should think about that
balmy wolf
I said english/korean btw
rare sonnet
Yeah the spitfire not learning English is kinda embarrassing
Although I’m sure they’ll get there eventually, they don’t seem enthusiastic at all

Doomfist and sombra are very oppressive
rough basin
s4 is still on gladiators right?
vagrant niche
yes
rare sonnet
Brig is fine imo
rough basin
they need to nerf her inspire imo but other then that she's fine rn
rare sonnet
You’re supposed to counter doomfist with Zarya bubbles
And mccree
But sombra hacks the counters
rough basin
his stuff is off cooldown before bubble is
rare sonnet
So this comp is vey powerful
rough basin
he can just dive again after the cooldown and zarya can't do shit
rough basin
true
rare sonnet
And that gives time to focus him, but sombra makes it very difficult
rough basin
sombra can counter doomfist hard aswell
rare sonnet
Yeah
rough basin
hack him and he's dead pretty much
rare sonnet
I feel like this is pointing to another situation where the counter is the comp itself
Like double sniper
rough basin
yeah you'd most likely have to switch up your team comp to counter the fist man
unless you're in gold like me and ppl have no idea how to play him
rare sonnet
I guess the original stage one turtle comp might be good
Orisa/Hog/McCree/Junkrat/Mercy/Zenyatta
But then Goats destroys that comp
It’s like Rock Paper Scissors
rare sonnet
You could
rough basin
3 tank 3 sup
rare sonnet
Canada ran Goats with sombra
rough basin
then they ran lucio moira?
rare sonnet
Yeah
rough basin
cool cool
rare sonnet
I don’t think doomfist works instead of sombra because he takes resources which you needs to be using on the tanks
Sombra doesn’t need any resources at all
Man it’s all so complicated
rough basin
sombra is self sustaining if ur any good at her so i'd honestly rather run sombra then doomfist in that comp
like doomfist doesn't seem viable in that situation
especially cause of moira's limited resource
rare sonnet
I guess that’s why she pairs with doomfist even more
Because you can put all your resources into doomfist diving in
rough basin
yee
rare sonnet
I think doomfist is overturned but when you think about it like this, any nerf would probably ruin the pickrate.
Sad :/
rare sonnet
Contenders or World Cup?

Doomfist may be a little overtuned, but it is compensated by the high skill high reward state he is in

also, i'm pretty sad with the state of pharah now

The problem with mercy is that the World Cup patch has a broken Winston on it

wait, what happened to winston?
rare sonnet
He has no leap falloff damage on the World Cup patch
rare sonnet
So 50 damage no matter how far you are from where he lands
They did but aren’t on that patch

I agree and disagree because changing patch mid-tournament is silly but starting a tournament on an old patch is worse

How are Rawkus and Moth better than Crimzo and bani
Crimzo is 100% mechanically better and the supports are really close but we didn’t see much bani because he got subbed
pearl stratus
Bani is, in my opinion, really predictable in his support play and doesn't have any weird ability to kind of flip a fight on his own. I think it comes from primarily being a Mercy player on a non-aggressive team.
Rawkus normally doesn't either, but now and again he just kind of does things and you're shocked by it.

Norway has a really good shot at taking down USA and taking their blizzcon spot. Its all in their hands.
plush trout
A big test of it will be how they hold up against Canada tomorrow
They do look good
Im actually a bit sketched about US facing Brazil. But if they watch tape on the overly aggressive Rein play and exploit it they should be ok
plush trout
Yeah honestly id love for US to come out on top of the group but i highly doubt it
canada is so good
feral wing
Canada is definitely moving on
top of the group
USA is the most likely candidate for 2nd place in the group
but norway or brazil might steal it
sullen berry
I was really impressed with brasil bouncing back
lowkey brasil is the correct way to spell the country
just like Taiwan > Chinese Taipei
and whatever they did to Hong Kong at the olympics
feral wing
every language has a different way of spelling country names
in Norwegian, Norway is called Norge
but in English it's Norway
here in norway we also spell it brasil
but in English it's brazil
sullen berry
i know it's the geopolitically correct way things are
these conventions stay this way to avoid upsetting certain nations and for simplicity
sullen berry
Brazil has every reason to look forward to being a serious owwc contender on the world stage
with a reverse sweep like this though
they could have taken a map early on king's row
feral wing
im a bit sad that brazil won
they deserved it
but
as a norwegian, if Norway won there then they would be in an excellent position to steal 2nd place in the group from USA
Norway is still the team with the best shot at taking 2nd place from USA, but the chance of it happening is significantly lower
sullen berry
it's more likely based on the losses against the top teams
they will need USA or Canada to slip more than one loss that's not against each other for huge chance
last year when everybody was piffed at USA with their roster
they did well
this is going to be the same effect happening this year until we hit quarter finals
where they will actually be tested

Can someone explain why is Moira more played than Ana in the recent tournaments?
warped axle
GOATS
deft valley
to actually point why, goats is a 3heal-3tank comp that's popular
it relies on 3 AoE healers
which are lucio brig and moira
Ana is single target so she's less effective

Ana is actually good for countering GOATS with her anti

Sometimes consistency comes from what your team enables you to do. Not all great players break free from team discipline issues.

This is the difference between a general matchup and a team that isn't a bunch of idiots that say "SHUT UP TRYHARD"

Canada vs. USA tomorrow, the match we want, but will it be the matchup better than Brasil+Norway? That was a match.
Hey man @feral wing Norway has the skill, they just need some more leadership 😃 don't fret man
karmic grotto
Wanna see any of those against South-Korea

Still find it funny that the OWL/OWWC teams only use Torb and Symmetra ironically.

Who's a better player overall: Surefour or Sinatraa?
sweet scaffold
The last match with Norway and Canada was a prime example of that.
long belfry
@restive spear Surefour plays more heroes
And is the best widow in OWL
His Tracer is either slightly below or as good as Sinatraa's
frozen perch
There is no "best widow"

muma is so scary
frozen perch
Has USA and Canada fought yet?
pearl stratus
I mean its not a not-viable strat.
They basically locked out B to C with NO cart stop
Because Swiss couldn't make it up the hill.
karmic grotto
But even then, its an asshole move to do
pearl stratus
Yeah winning is pretty assholey.\
karmic grotto
That will be their down fall when another team does the same to them
pearl stratus
I mean they'd have to be as bad as Switzerland to have it happen.
They had their issues getting cocky and dropping the map to Brazil.
karmic grotto
That's also true
pearl stratus
But Switzerland couldn't even handle a single Doomfist.
karmic grotto
Just copy the same heroes
pearl stratus
He's not good enough, no disrespect.
karmic grotto
Oh
pearl stratus
Need to be 18 to be in OWL.
pearl stratus
I mean its a valid profession if you're as good as they are.
It wasn't back when I was a kid.
But look at Sinatraa, no college debt.
And he's making 150k a year in OWL.
Too much time on his hands maybe, but he's making six figures 😛
Has room and board paid for, food paid for, travel expenses, insurance, etc.
karmic grotto
Well, if he wants to be a gamer his life
I say nothing
But profesional gaming doesn't give you more knowledge
Just makes you a basic person without study
pearl stratus
No, but its a matter of how far you take it.
If you offered me lots of knowledge, or Tom Bradys salary for the last five years.
I'd probably take Brady's and retire 😛
candid cedar
lul the ui though
pearl stratus
Plus, for all the gaming the OWL people do work hard. Just differently. 6 days a week, typically. 8-10 hours a day.
And yeah the UI is still backwards.
karmic grotto
Gaming? Ticking the keyboard and moving the mouse
pearl stratus
Whoops.
dusky tinsel
seeing symm in owl feels pretty gud
frozen perch
this is not owl
pearl stratus
OWWC has more chances for funny comps, because overall "less" is on the line.
Also, not to be a jerk, but the skill differences.
Like I don't see USA attempting this comp against Canada.
frozen perch
It's fun to see Bastion and Symmetra being used
dusky tinsel
holy moly this symm bastion orisa combo is going to inspire some jank in plat
Not sure why there isn't a sombra pick for switzerland
pearl stratus
There's a few good hacks, but if you look at how they're protecting Zach the only thing that would really open it up would be an EMP.
karmic grotto
This is just harrasment
pearl stratus
They're using Sym ult to provide the shield, orissa not needed.
karmic grotto
USA is harassing
frozen perch
Losing feels bad, but losing to Bastion and Symmetra feels awful
karmic grotto
So hard
pearl stratus
I mean people say its harassing.
pearl stratus
You either want Sym and Bastion etc in play, or you want no harassment 😛
coarse blaze
very un-epic
karmic grotto
Canada vs USA better be a good battle
pearl stratus
Beyond that it was always going to be USA vs. Canada.
