you don't really change your support players once you've established them

hence why OWL players were stuck on playing zen only

Do you know what a sub is?
serene tendon
cant really blame him
hidden osprey
uh no, no teams changed their support players once they had an established synergy
It's why ryujehong never played much Ana
despite Ana seeing more playing time in Stage 4
rare sonnet
Noooo xQc needs to have practiced the bug more, nano jump does 75 instantly and he was using leaps to move and not damage
balmy wolf
there is no "established synergy" none of these players played before the math

If I want a reasonable opponent, I will continue to look past @hidden osprey tomfoolery

why he decided to dive in when note was staggered?

You know someone is an actual fuck boi when he brings up logical fallacys in online arguments. Go to bed lmao

@hidden osprey This isnt the first time hes done that though, he just kinda blanks out sometimes....its a big weakness he has

@balmy wolf same goes, I don't need your "superior" intelligence to understand that you can't seem to accept facts
balmy wolf
the emp came in first and notes self distruct didnt do much

No one thinks you're smart or right because you say fancy catch phrases like "muh straw man"

considering one of his arguments was "Jayne shouldn't be coach because I don't like how he talks"

@karmic grotto Sombra for information, communication, and the massive EMP
hidden osprey
@balmy wolf that's not true at all though, the same opinions I'm sharing are what you're posting as fact, which is pretty ironic
karmic grotto
Was it effective or not
rare sonnet
They ‘lost’ 3 games but didn’t get swept on any
green stump
@karmic grotto not always due to the sombra pick though...it was the follow up most of the time...Note was not nearly as effective as an offtank as Space and Space was always on that follow up
hidden osprey
but you can take your "logical" fallacies with you, considering that almost no one seems to be supporting your "arguments"
balmy wolf
@hidden osprey oh it's true and you cannot wish away that fact. The true irony here is that you've attacked and strawmanned the person all afternoon and not the argument.
xq Cow should join gladiators. They need el tanko and they go him tho

especially when you only retort with the rhetoric of strawman and projection

Wtf go to bed lol

and they get the bragging rights going into Blizzcon
hidden osprey
yeah, that's an unfortunate side effect of his stream personality
I like him as a streamer, sometimes he can go off the rails a bit
rare sonnet
The players are not nice people

personally..I think his stream is what creates this side of him...I think if they werent like that and held him more accountable, he'd be one of the best tanks out there
he's admitted how much his fans effect him

He certainly has the entertainment factor down

He teabagged Sinatraa and you could see on his cam shouting “FUCK OUTTA MY GAME” when Sinatraa got stomped
balmy wolf
oh yeah agilities is on canada

I think surefour was a bigger reason why. Dying when you're scouting as sombra is a HUGE no
balmy wolf
s4 pls
rare sonnet
Sure four died because USA is very well trained vs sombra
green stump
@rigid laurel lol thats becase Space was on him constantly...Space was ALWAYS hunting for Surefour
rigid laurel
yeah but if that keeps happening maybe switch..?
rigid laurel
his sombra on rialto had 0 impact
rare sonnet
Canada would have beaten USA if FUni let them scrim
rare sonnet
Yes
green stump
Sombra pick was just too valuable....they may have lost, but the sombra pick just gives way too much, especially when you need to find out where certain players are..if they had no idea where Hydration was coming from, Hydration would have destroyed them

rare sonnet
They release a hero at Blizzcon lol

Sombra was important to lock out Winston leaps
vagrant niche
it really showed on Anubis

Even if he was dying...SureFour's sombra was holding their team together
rigid laurel
It was that way for the maps prior. but sombra was just not working in rialto. not to mention theres not much scouting to do in rialto. its a very linear payload map
green stump
Once space started actively making Surefour his target...that took off such a huge advantage...
rare sonnet
Wow the game ended before it was even scheduled to start
Feelsbadman for people not paying attention

Canada could have easily full held on Rialto
but that sleep dart + dva bomb on xQc lost them it
karmic grotto

hidden osprey
no way that was calculated

not even a chance
balmy wolf
always calculated
karmic grotto
It wasn't
hidden osprey
Note should have been there though to eat it

Rawkus isn’t good enough for it to be calculated OMEGALUL
green stump
xqc jumped when he should have ducked, thats ALL it was
rigid laurel
not to sound like a salty canada fan. but USA had a lot of clutch lucky turn arounds when canada outplay them for several minutes
hidden osprey
Just seemed like xQc and Note weren't synergising well
I agree with that sentiment imo
rare sonnet
Space got fat bombs
green stump
no no, Im on team USA and even I admit, there was a big luck factor on things...(among other things)
hidden osprey
they got very lucky with being in the "right place" at the right time
rigid laurel
like that big 3 man random bomb on anubis point 1. that could have easily turned into a loss for canada. shit like that happened so much for usa lol

but space was just...way too good in his positioning, YOU COULD SEE SUREFOUR trying to get him so many times..
rare sonnet
I want to be as good as space one day 🙌<3

Yeah I mentioned this in the game

but that guy figured out surefour's plan..and that killed it
hidden osprey
I also feel like Muma was making full use of the 50 dmg bug

Muma and space are holding the whole team together
hidden osprey
something tells me xQc didn't really make use of it all that much
rare sonnet
Muma because he knew the bug so well and space because he’s Jesus

vagrant niche
OOF
green stump
@hidden osprey lol tried to, but that got him killed a lot, the discussion on him abusing it got him killed (they actually set him up for a lot of those deaths) but it wasnt that which gave USA the advantage, it was Space being fucking #1 carry
hidden osprey
Idk if he tried
rare sonnet
^^^^
green stump
your right, Muma was trying to use the bug...

Muma was cheesy lol
rigid laurel
that last potential push on rialto is weird. when baby dva was running away, she was dead no matter what. why did xqc jump into the window and give himself away lmao

but the bug didnt mean as much as Space

You could tell because they would nano Winston to get primal faster to speed leaps on cool down

NA is overrun lol
hidden osprey
expect a lot more Korean faces in the OWL
vagrant niche
we know, Slasher said
hidden osprey
biggest problem now for teams is finding players that can play almost any role
rare sonnet
I expect Koreans to be a let down
vagrant niche
70% new teams will be Koreans
hidden osprey
you can't be a specialist anymore
balmy wolf
oh zacharee's tracer is on point
hidden osprey
the only specialists you can be are in the tank roles
balmy wolf
i would know bc he farmed me so hard on zen
rare sonnet
Runaway just to yoink the fan base
hidden osprey
wonder if they'll drop his salary now
vagrant niche
he put a lot of work today
hidden osprey
no way he's worth $150k a year anymore tbh
the talent pool available far exceeds his salary demands
vagrant niche
maybe, but that's up to the owner to determine
balmy wolf
who saud outlaws
vagrant niche
i saw that on reddit this morning
Danteh needs to be starter
he's very good
same with Shadowbench
balmy wolf
im genuinely surprised he doesnt just leave owl
danteh in ranked is like
he hates the game
hidden osprey
yeah but if you're getting paid a shit ton to play videos games
balmy wolf
ahahaha
hidden osprey
would you say no?
balmy wolf
'Dis game, I hate it!" -- Danteh probably
hidden osprey
especially with sponsorships and everything that comes with it
balmy wolf
its not really a shit ton
ok so if the range of salary is from 50k to 150k, like 99% is <70k and a handful is above
hidden osprey
OWL players are part of the revenue share programme iirc
hidden osprey
$90,000 assuming those subs are all tier 1, and not including donations either
balmy wolf
the man is too nice to be in a professional setting with such tight regulations
balmy wolf
it was very daunting on him with weight gain and such
balmy wolf
dude gained 40 pounds (22-ish kg)
also yeah people like calvin or contenders peeps should just stay streamers
for their own mental stability lmao
also kephrii has been in some owl tryouts 👀
im not doing any more owl tryouts lmao
it was like a gang initiation
hidden osprey
Calvin is a bot tbh
balmy wolf
youre
not entirely wrong
theres a subcat of streamers who play for the stream viewers
hidden osprey
honestly he's not that great, yeah he can pop off, but if you compare other players to him, he's not that special
balmy wolf
where they play what they know will make their stream happy even if its not optimal
bitter phoenix
I did a tryout once. I left because I couldn't be called fuckeroo
bitter phoenix
Kephrii is a bot
vagrant niche
look at this thread
balmy wolf
ok so i have some genuine opinions on kephrii in regards to skill
hidden osprey
He's a widow one trick
hidden osprey
and when he can't play widow, he throws games with symmetra
vagrant niche
he belongs on OWL? i don't think so
hidden osprey
was the Daemin the guy who dumped his gf who had three abortions?
I forgot who it was
vagrant niche
no
bitter phoenix
Kephrii is so easily tilted when he get out widowed by a "nobody"
vagrant niche
that's undad
vagrant niche
(undead)
hidden osprey
I know
balmy wolf
Kephrii is arguably the most consistent widow in the game. Period. I do NOT think he should be in OWL just for his widow alone.
I understand what I saying but I firmly believe he's one of the best widows and that's it. Pine pops off but Kephrii is WAY more consistent with it.
hidden osprey
is that a copypasta
gaunt acorn
yes
hidden osprey
spicy
balmy wolf
i have stubby thumbs 😭
balmy wolf
im living abroad now leave me alone
hidden osprey
finally getting that arranged pakistani wife?
balmy wolf
Kephrii was saying last night on stream he wanted to try-out for OWL but that he needed an invite from a sponsor (team)
hidden osprey
jk pls don't kill me
balmy wolf
i wish
need to finish school first
he tried out for uprising
i got invited but didnt go
hidden osprey
any team worth their weight wouldn't try him out
balmy wolf
idk why tf they invited a fucking collegiate
hidden osprey
you can't risk trying out specialist players anymore
hidden osprey
Imagine if today's matches were decided by who had the better widow
vagrant niche
man, i hope Aero turns the fuel around season 2
hidden osprey
Canada would have easily stomped
balmy wolf
itd be like s10 all over again
hidden osprey
Tisumi best widow in NA after all
balmy wolf
Honestly there's a LOT of TTC players that didnt get invited to try out that I personally think are good enough for T1
bitter phoenix
s10 was fun
balmy wolf
so i was kinda angry when i got extended the google invite sheet for uprising
and they didnt
i think it went public later but.. i was still annoyed
bitter phoenix
was one of the options on the boston sign up about being allowed near playgrounds and schools?
hidden osprey
kinda want a conclusion to him though
did he get jailed, did he just go back to normal life
balmy wolf
just a "Has been jailed for x years" is enough
hidden osprey
yeah but we don't know if he has
would have thought it'd have been made public by now
balmy wolf
that sorta stuff takes time
oh well what he did with the kid cant have been as bad as his performance if he were allowed in this OWWC
bitter phoenix
he was allowed in wc
balmy wolf
was he??
bitter phoenix
no thats what im asking
balmy wolf
oh yeah also someone said to see a thread oe sec i almost forgot
bitter phoenix
lol
balmy wolf
i assumed he wasnt lmao
bitter phoenix
then i just keep misreading what you said
balmy wolf
@vagrant niche meh hes not really noteworthy, wouldntnbe surprised if he only got offers from contenders teams
contenders streams are more fun to watch tbh
vagrant niche
FU stomping XL2 was pretty fun
potent geode
I feel so unpatriotic not liking this USA team
vagrant niche
naw, Nenne and Manga are fun to watch
balmy wolf
meh i suppose spirit is a cool dude
vagrant niche
Nanohana is decent too
balmy wolf
honestly my favorite part of contenders
are watching them talk in discord after matches
and just banter
balmy wolf
FUCK i wish i had a pc with me
i wanna stream snipe so badly
and ask him in game
"did you mean to do that or did your finger slip"
potent geode
Sinatraa looks like a mutant
balmy wolf
bro he legit looks like 👽
balmy wolf
he called me a retard in a game once
couldnt stop laughing
tbh i did fuck up
i orbed his tracer and it gave away his flank position
vagrant niche
I wish i could play top level players
sucks being plat chat
but i guess that's cause i don't play much
nowdays
balmy wolf
school started so i dont play this sem
first semester too so 
i mean ok
high elos is like
vagrant niche
let me ask you something
bitter phoenix
twitch is sad. There is a gold player that gets views because she is semi decent looking
hidden osprey
might as well just go on to pornhub in that case
balmy wolf
5% playing with owls/contenders and they dont talk.
60% normal games
35% "I could definitely go OWL if it werent for [irrelevamt reason]"
vagrant niche
do you think i can get myself to diamond if i start playing support and try to stay alive even if my team mates have bad game sense etc?
unborn portal
Is diamond considered high or low elo
vagrant niche
like Mercy, Brig, Moira
balmy wolf
keep in mind that in the contenders server, 4.2 is "low"
hidden osprey
you could one trick Brig to GM
balmy wolf
not anymore you cant
hidden osprey
you still can
balmy wolf
she starts getting punished severely in mid masters
vagrant niche
I'm a decent Brig
balmy wolf
i never see brigs anymore
hidden osprey
Kabaji came across a player that did just that this season
vagrant niche
my win % with her is 90%
balmy wolf
Most support heroes arr the hardest to play in terms of solo queue because they're not as self reliant as dps or off tank. Heroes like Lucio or Moira still require andecent team to be able to utilize your positioning to be effective. Is it possible? Yep. It's fucking difficult.
The support I recommend playing is Zenyatta.
hidden osprey
Just play DPS 4Head
hidden osprey
not wrong

Zen is hard cause if you get dive and your team doesn't peal, you die

i'll look at your guide, thanks

OH MY GOD
AAAAA
FUCKING LOL
people getting mad at xQc t-bagging but not when the whole usa team t-bagged him
vagrant niche
@balmy wolf i don't think that's the point, he was t bagging like in desperation to prove something out and have fun i guess
but the last laugh was muma's
cause they took the game
it just looks funny that xQc's reaction is just to no matter if he's going to lose, he is determined to T bag
as much as he can before the game ends
like "IF I GO DOWN, I"LL TAKE YOU DOWN WITH ME T BAGGIN"
balmy wolf
O M E G A L U L
i need more of this
pls tag me if more juicy shit arrizes
arises*
vagrant niche
ok brotha
rare sonnet
Bruh why are the US player so unlike-able
I want to but then I just read what they say and their attitude, ew
In the tweet above xQc makes fun of USA winning but not winning flawlessly but muma mocks a team that lost
Miss me with that
ruby pendant
Didn't London team do something similar when they won Grand Finals against Fusion?
Guess it's just their competitive nature
rare sonnet
I don’t like London either funnily enough :/

Maybe you don't like winning! 😄

@balmy wolf im planning on devoting myself to the next owl
but its too far
i will probably forget what i have promised
balmy wolf
@versed hearth i only really keep up aith contenders bc of friends in contendies
keep me updated pls
- HI NESSA
versed hearth
HI LEGGO
i watched some yt about the new teams
and the real money behind the sloths
open for the upcoming owl
i kinda hate the whole capitalism and all included
but without those big companies buying slots from the blizzard
balmy wolf
its really like a real sport now
versed hearth
the players wont have a chance to show their skill and succeed
balmy wolf
contendies has better memes
versed hearth
also the word is that only 2 EU teams are currently in play
balmy wolf
contenders is locally owned and such so its much more genuine and 1 on 1
versed hearth
so it would be hard to prevail against the usa teams and asian teams and canadian teams
it would be fun
they have to have their rooster ready till the 1st of Dec
8 official players
balmy wolf
If you can, share the videos you watched 😃
versed hearth
oh just google OWL 2019
i think i watched the Stylosa one
he had a good review about which companies bought the slots from bliizard

Too many damn Chinese teams

"I'm European" but "I also refuse to accept capital investment to sponsor a team"
gotta pony up the monies bruh
@versed hearth ty for video, means a lot 😃

balmy wolf
Aquilini (pronounces Ack-qwe-lean-e) is great! They own the Canucks (my hockey team).
balmy wolf
Yea Vancouver Canucks is a Canadian Hockey Team in the NHL.
balmy wolf
Gaming is big in Canada, it's just companies are hesitant to spend capital on it due to old-school thinking.
The Vancouver Canucks has been transformed into a massive money making machine under Aquilini and so this is exciting.
To take his profits and diversify into e-Sports is a solid move, hopefully it pays given the youth market in Canada
@versed hearth where are you from? (I am from Canada but live in the US now)
versed hearth
EU
balmy wolf
Nice
Will EU get more teams? YUP but the capital investment and marketing money is open once a year.
So most of the teams that sponsor e-Sports teams already will not budget it until their next fiscal year.
pretty sure the philly 76ers own Team Dignitas
philly is cheap on money tho
they spent extra capital last year into the core business
so next year they should have money allotted for more esports
Anyone from Aussieland here?
rather Oceania at least?
Who are the big esports owners? (not the teams but the ownership groups)
long belfry
Idk moit
