Bad teams WutFace
C9 into hold wtf
if they kill them tho
2 playoff teams that were boned
baleeted
MASAAA

If getting to semi finals is getting boned then only 2 teams are good lmao
what?
no
the person
What is this person in crowd
scream again
in the crowd
wtf
steamengine btw
should they gut dva
????
just 1 long screech
^^
im so done
I can deal with the screams when something happens
I dont mind that
but just? one scream?
cmon
probably would be good for owl if dva was heavily nerfed
rck carry
WHAT
colourhex tried so hard to throw
wtf no way
shatter got nobody
how
beani
here she goes again
the brig blocked it
what is this fight
after the shatter was cast

reverse sweep incoming
molly
reverse sweep
game 5
reverse sweep in sight
first day
this is actual bullshit
i called it
eyyyyy
well my score prediction is wrong
oh my godfuc
Nice 1000 SR comp game! Subbed
For fuck sake
great, dva is getting nerfed again 😦
rck man
witchcraft from the crowd
nerfing dva would be a mistake
ik what the problem is, we stopped spamming the atl emoji
Yeah he's having a great debut on his new team


if you nerf dva
what the fuck happened with that
well like

dva is the only thing
Throwverwatch
stopping ow from having a spam meta
Should have been 4-0, then should have been 3-1. Atlanta deadass going to lose this arent they fml
ye
shes also the one helping protect goats from counter spam comps

kodak switch was the issue
Dva still in every meta ever since launched, doesn't need nerfs 
idk why they did it
the meta wouldnt be spam
swap him plz
it would be snipers
good players can aim so spam chars would still be shit without dva lol
^^
what would spam meta
What map now?
dva can do a bit of everything, which is why she has no competition
Nepal prob
Oh is Sammera a new hero kapp
no
spam metta
its syms mom
i ment spam meta
When is Sammetra going live
baptiste buffs bunker
so bastion bunker becomes meta
reaper
reaper might make a comeback
if spam meta exists
his new teleport looks strong
not strong
any goatsers?
usable
time to watch boston sweep once again
Ugh
but matrix is good
triple dps = Pog goats = ResidentSleeper
well shit, my laptops dying and it seems i forgot my laptop charger
fml
ill see yall later
COLOURHEX
colourhex carry
can't believe they made a reverse sweep
hey they went goats
this is what happens when you don't stick with your 6 starters
why the fuck though
winnable Kapp
sure
damn if only dafran here for tracer
😢
wouldn't it be reverse sweep_er_
oooo
no dafran no win lul
dude i used to say
meka base is a good widow map right?
ay back to goats
My guess is 2-1 either way
rip ratlanta
what went wrong?
gg
bye bye atl 
gg
rCK
ggez
ooo
Oh damn
a turn around
impressive
rck has emp though
5 ults vs 1.5
boston have more ults
that dumb rising wall on meka base blocked aimgods los
rock~
rck lmao
I did not see that comming
rck is fucking mvp dude
new boston won a game?
this is boston from stage 3
sombra normally: brrrrt
sombra nanoed: BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT
⬆
A welcomed surprise. I thought Atlanta had it in the bag.
big mvps
Nlaeer for frd 
Nanoboost turns the MP7 into a GAU-8
What the fuck casores
Trade Kodak tomorrow, to Washington
Pokpo still struggling with communication it seems
guess i was right this stage is going in the toilet
Cant even beat boston after been up 2 by halftime
For fuck sake. Now thats a fat choke 🙂
Im taking a bath in the dead sea with how much salt im absorbing
and 35 EMP hits
lmaO
i think
we-I adapted
traded players
get like a 60% boost of power
its like pkmn trading
where pkmn evolve when traded
Shanghai vs LA worth staying up for?
i
i dont know
woahhh
monte said ass???
wtf
WHERE IS HIS DVA
WHY HIS SOMBRA
what happened at the end
atl needs a new support line
MAh boiz... the shanghai
atl needs to not play kodak
this
PAID ACTORS LULW
dogman is actually good
hes inconsistent
he played well in the rounds he was in
hes either shit or good
either Dogshit or Pogman
Imagine if dafran was in on that busan fight
i think babybay needs time

That dva bomb on echien shouldnt have hit
honestly
It was the retarded swap
i dont know what to tell you about that bomb
boston won?
holy shit
Rck did the same shit against shanghai on nepal
FeelsBad for ATL
He just somehow shoots a 3 ball and lands em every time
its either that they shouldntve not got hit by the bomb or shouldve
cause the hitbox is weird with dva and payload interacting
They were under the payload
ehhh
and it somehow inched forward enough to get them
esports ready boys
angling looks like babybay was hugging it better
i still blame atl for evening having to go into overtime to win on echien
prob since it was tilted
they had 5 mins
the angling and hitboxes get weird
so they get left out if theyre not exactly hugging that space
The swaps were stupid
I blame casores for subbing frd out for nlaeer
Thats what lost them the game in the end
Just to get stomped cause nlaeer is a shit widow
I blame the kodak and nlaeer subs
Nlaeer did play widow
Erster played widow on busan
Maps before nlaeer was on the widow
nlaeer was only on anubis before no?
nlaeer played widow on anubis and it was fine
The issues were subbing out dogman and frd
i dont know wtf youre saying
this loss was on management not the players
well he played on second wind
i say give him time
He played like daco would
ill be fair
switching out nlaeer for frd is weird
but like frd idk what he was doing beforei t anyway
Bad choice
luffy looking like luffy anime
Cringe
this song
god i hate this song
s4?
My guess is glads 3-1
WHAT???
Love shanghai but lets be honest
dragons 3-2
Start things off with a lame ass intro song
surefour and decay
fucking lane roberts over here looking like hes at the airport
Unless dding stomps them idk
kong doo eyy

London is dead
i havent seen them in a while
london is dead but its not goats now
the meta is more dive oriented
so london has an actual chance
more of a chance
youngjin
YOUNGJIN???
SOLDIER
atlanta could just play winston goats and yeet them so idk
GOD DAMN
diemmmm
Oh, Geguri. Where art thou?
supports are the dps
Honestly im surprised how diverse the comp is now
people complaining abotu goats alot now
for the first day
the meta has been alot more diverse
NANO SOLDIER
FIRST NANO SODIER

Nice emp
big hold
something something nenne
trying to make youngjin solo

nice.
i'd like to see a widow 1v1 between carpe and diem
diem is actually crazy
Gamsu is steamrolling 'em.
Glads are playing wayyyy to slow
its even more impressive when u're watching it from diem's perspective
just tuned in
Holy shit shanghai
how much goats has there been today
SWEEP

Dear god
goats?
Honestly sad
like 65% goats
@quasi stump map dependent
gotcha gotcha ty!
Diem > Carpe ????
Good shit
Mah boiz
shanghai though 
Good job shutting decay down
Diem = Carpe
God, I'm so glad the Dragons are better than ever this season.
After having no wins last season, they deserve it.
yes
yeah its nice to see them perform
as a gladiators fan this is making me sad
ikr
Tbf they’re all korean
gladiators were improving so much at the end of last stage
Chengdu is a better example
other than chengdu
there is only 1 Chinese team
better viewer behind paywall
access pass
Oh the access pass is free? Nice!
Welfare service.
Wait, it isnt
@keen abyss same here 😦
jayne said it would likely be free by stage 3
Bye s4 😦
Where is the jayne commentary
this is old news
lol
nice
a
Overjayted.
Rooting for Shanghai. I can only use my phone to either text or watch so I won't be texting much
🚽
Surprised LAG doing so bad tho. Maybe she'll clean up
Does anyone else provide (good) commentary on these games besides sideshow and jayne
I was hoping after the momentum gained in stage 1 glad would snowball through stage 2
what a weird comp for dragons
It's just a good meta for both teams.
On the counter -
LMFAO
Minus Surefour Shanghai just has much more flexible dps.
LAGs dps have smaller end pools.
They just rotated them well.
Diem probably has the smallest pool of the Shanghai dps.
Widow, Tracer, Zarya, McCree.
Standard hitscan pool.
I think he plays a good sombra as well
But unnecessary when you have Dding.
INFINITY TIME
wow that communication was horrible. rein charges in trans and gets surrounded while team left him
Omg finally glads please keep it up
OW.
throwverwatch time
let's gooo
you realize glads can onyly combo becuz shanghai doesnt have support ult to tank the damage
wow
Good rapping
???
rip dding's tires


My heart
lol
why the heck dding was on junk
dmg
wondering
NOW THEY SWAP TO GOATS
confident much
He's gotten like nothing done tho
Honestly wasted the round
Not even real shield pressure
ooof
woo
they waited til the last 30 secs to swap 
even though it clearly did not work for 6 mins
Ana "questionable judgment"
I mean, yeah. Typical Widowmaker peel.
DDING TRAPS
lmfao
HAHAHAHAHA
Wrecked
LoL
genji and junkrat traps, name a more iconic duo
Junk traps
like stuck on the tracks and couldnt escape from the oncoming train
I love how Gamsu just slams him into the wall to add insult to injury.
A junkrat and a Genji. Are we in gold comp?
DDing, just stop.
It's a good thing he builds them so fast huh?
no riptire kills lmao
but they get nothing
On defense the tires are worth it just for the stall
he does alot of dmg
I'm so happy matches aren't constant goats now
but his ults are not good
Much difference than offense
has he got one tire that hasnt been killed yet this map
no
Also Junk tires rarely are good in OWL, to be fair.
lol joats
a tire kill
Im back. What happened this map so far
There was a Genji for a bit
DIEM
dding got possessed by jake
Niceee
rip

It was
this is the gladiators i love
the junk wasnt all bad
First week is going to have a lot of weird testing on off-maps.
junk got alot of good picks
still not getting, why not pharah?
junk got 1 tire
its like the dude in comp that doesnt swap off even though it obviously isnt working
didnt he
Because Pharah splits too many resources.
pharahs really limited for defense point b
You have to dedicate teh Mercy fully.
and yeah she needs alot of pocketing
what about Mei?
junkrat trap is also really useful
Dding isnta mei player
Mei can work, but she's amazingly low damage.
many times junk trap is a free pick
If you're running primarily goats and the Mei you're lacking out on a lot of damage.
I'm just not a fan of the support picks they tried on attack
we have to overcome mcdonalds
Mercy Ana leaves no defensive ults
Ya been a good game so far
and dding didnt tire when he wa snanoed
I think the nano was a mistake.
i still like seeing heroes like junk get usage
bottom 5 hero, atleast he gets some usage
I mean stage 3 he'll definitely be around.
The projectile speed change/less bounces will help him a lot
good, i love watching junks
Less bounces makes his area denial much more consistent.
i'm guessing OWL junks are gonna have really entertaining aim
It feels like TF2 speeds on the pills basically.
So if you could land nades as a demoman, you'll be set.
37% average vs 62%
BASTION
rigging
was bap used in any matches before LAG vs SHD
yes\
RIGGED
Pauses still happening in season 2 
philly did first
Yes. Bap is just mostly ladder strong.
He's a precious metal crying thing, basically.
Bap is ladder strong but its only been like a short while
ladder will counter him more
he'll only really be good on bunker both ladder and owl
Pause????
Youngjin plays what he wants
Gladiators paused
So many pauses
REEEEE
youngjin is like the chengdu in a player
Decay name changed to Delay.
"Ok decay all you gotta do is just hit some things and we'll charge your ult up"
and call out pauses
Remember when they said DPS wouldn’t come back and goats would still be super OP
Decay be like “lemme turn off my computer real quick”
I mean Goats is still stronger in most situations.
But neither team is swapping to it
@fathom acorn i dont think anyone said it would be super OP, i heard it would still be mostly used in most maps
Shaz???
No
back to classic sombra
He was fine, LAG just turtled and waited for the dive.
woah
Which is a fair play.
Wooo
😦
Now we have goats
for like 30 secs
Oh well
We’ve had a ton of DPS today
A lot more than I expected
I thought we’d still be in majority goats
Baptiste got playtime too
not like he was very good today though
Nah
dding?
Immo field would need to last more than .2 seconds
He wasnt
Void coming in clutch
lmaoo
better than EQO
HE DID IT
HE GOT A KILL
ALL THE BLUE DVAS
HAVE BEEN GETTING SO MANY BOMBS
WE DID IT
Jesus
wow
WOW
I was having a stroke
That is some insane Defense and Offense
That was taling too long
i enjoy stalling
Press F for SHD’s timebank
Shanghai man
theyre crazy today
even when its not the most optimal for them
they wanna go with some weird dps
Nutty
Start of the stage is when you try shit like that out though, so it makes sense.
Do it on the first n last games to confuse ur opponents
Baptiste
jin really does play whatever he wants
lmaooooo youngjin
crouched
He's a potential Libero/Fleta flex, honestly.
Ya wanna know what’s funny?
He plays so much random shit.
Yeah terry wassup
Today majority of the games were DPS and featured nongoats
True
ikr
even when the fight is lost
I mean are you just doing Welfare Stream numbers?
Diem always gets like a kill
Majority of the day hasnt even been over 100k on twitch
Because a lot of people have dropped the Section 8 Stream.
@pearl stratus the what
Twitch is a dumpster stream with garbage quality and bitrate.
Used by poor people.
Hence.
Section 8 stream.
Twitch has a capped bitrate, so if you're watching on any screen of relevant size you swap to the places with double their bitrate.
What is this shd comp
so what we get in the new meta is....
Is this junkrat goats?
junkrat with goats
Why haven't they switched to goats yet
lol
because shanghai
It can’t be junk goats
wants to try out some wacky shit
lmao that thing is not goats
goat rats, this game is full of atrocities now
its JOKES
Lambs
I like rats
trans?
Actually no
waht was that
nice to know the junkrat buff seems to be working as intended tho
It’s both a name and a description
but RATS counters GOATS
can't wait to see what Chengdu runs
HUGE MF TIRE
He finally didn’t fuck up
have the outlaws played today
Not today
is anyone seriously enjoying today though?

Nye vs SHD rip
jakerat incoming
The Outlaws won't play until next week.
Big goose is fat
@feral jacinth hey we might see a different comp from nyxl in that match up
Big Goose is... big.
oh boy
I like big goose
baptiste bunker
yeah
bastion what the fuck
but not with goats
A tie coming in?
I just don’t like seeing bastion
I like variety too. But can do without bastion 😃
Orisa switches in first 60 seconds $5
thats dive
I have several questions
I can understand that @north beacon, I've been playing some bastion lately. mindless
Are goats dead in OWL
No. It certainly isn't.
im excited for gibraltar though
I wouldn't even go that far.
Nice
but doomfist though
I have no idea what the consensus is on any of Overwatch's maps. Is there a map generally considered the worst
(for comp)
Playoff pressure will begin to mount, and teams will begin to fall back on what they "know" works.
they hate it because they are confused by it
It's literally the same anytime a new map is introduced.
unless its a control map
True.
everyone hated blizzworld when it came out too but nobody talks about it now
Those are despised regardless.
and generally 2 cp is seen as the worst
Man dragons what are you even doing
Ouch.
What was that round
that was terrible
SHD highest point was their first win
both for shanghai
All my hype is gone
and for anyone expecting goats to die
i had glad at 3-1 so this might be the first time im right today
Aww, Dragons no
I don’t think I should watch SHD games anymore
why the doomfist
"and missing the jump, you can do it"
That’s me every game
gotta stop that cart
goose lol
What a waste of time and expectations
Welp
well i hate OWL now
why
I got what I wanted out of this after weeks of intel: Geguri is benched.
last match was hype
They were trying to break the meta for the sake of it
"Give Zenyatta Lore"
surprisingly a lot of non-goats
now to watch paris get killed?
im gonna give Paris 2 maps
I didn't want to speak on it too early when I noticed she was only around for one map during that first win, they began using her less and less.
I miss tracer widow comps
And now, she gets no time.
What is the significance of the "ok" hand gesture
nothing?
What does it mean
just means ok
oh
All good. Or, great job.
Can’t wait for titans to be bad now that DPS are good
Success.
decay barely did anything to the riptire, someone else shot it
Bets on next one?
@fathom acorn I thought titans had good DPS
Even if DPS are back in some form, it doesn't change the fact that GOATS is still the most dominant. And Titans are still the best GOATS team.
If Paris plays on Paris and loses Paris they lose the whole match
charge 3-2 but it might just be 3-1
@north beacon I don’t want titans to be good
Also la just destroyed Shanghai
Both in the game
And in their spirits
im hoping paris took things seriously over the break
titans will still be one of if not the best team in a dps meta
Valiant 0-7 lol
imo theyre not as flexible as NYXL or London, but if its your typical DPS, genji, tracer, widow, hanzo, they'll be fine
idk
people keep telling me they are not flexible
but bumper played like
everything
haksal played everything
people also told you vancouver wouldnt win stage 1 in general tho i assume
bumper is kinda irrelevant to if vancouver win or lose
i dont know a huge amount about haksal but I know his Genji is good
