Last stage was nothing but great matches
this stage is worse because we know what teams are good and bad

this stage will show whos good and flexible
last stage it was just goats and anybody can beat anybody in goats espect vancouver and nyxl

hard to say
last stage, there was really only 3 tiers of teams
2 small tiers, top 3 and bottom 3
and one giant tier in the middle where any of those teams can beat eachother

@tawny sigil it is called having two divisions, and playing more against teams from same division and less against teams from a different division
it is a common thing in every single league in the world which has more than 2 divisions or more
in NFL, you play six games against your three divisional opponents, four games against teams in your conference, four against teams from another conference, plus 2 more other games
same in NHL, you get most games in your division, some in your conference and fewest against other conference

@trim shadow you've heard of bumper pharah and bumper hanzo but prepare yourself... for mano symetra

did you know mano was a sym main back in season 1 ladder? reached like 90 SR

@swift moth it’s more offgoats now

did seoul actually burn out or were they just never good enough to compete
basically like fuel of season 1
they WERE good, but diff meta, going against higher levels of consistent competition
limber pine
I think they suffer from unreasonable expectations
being the only Korean org in the league
similarly to people expecting Envyus to be very good

I like how people still complain about brig
When she’s basically useless now
Even with goats she’s replaced by ana moira or Baptiste

What seoul did was
Pop off pre season
Have a decent stage 1 stage 2
Trash last two stages
Missed end of season playoffs by a map

why does fuel and outlaws have their first games so late
by then some teams already played 3 games

I wonder wether teams are gonna go the Phili route and make a new arena or just rent one
trim shadow
well probably see in the off season
dallas atlanta and valiant looks to be set for renting one or owning it outright
but theres like 16 other teams unaswered

NYXL had better own one
Also does that mean that games will take place in different time zones?
If so how’s that gonna work

new york is heavily condenses area

Hey yall so I'm doing this project for my Script Writing class where I have to conduct some short interviews in order to make a documentary and I realized I need one more. I chose Esports for the subject and I was wondering if anyone here watches the Overwatch League maybe not every time they're LIVE but someone who actively is aware of the tournament and enjoys Esports? It would mean the world if anyone could help me out. I need someone who can genuinely answer a few questions about the topic of Esports and and their involvement of watching the streams. The interview would just be a relatively quick voice call where I ask you questions and I record the conversation so I can write it down later. Also I would need the interviewee to have a decent mic so i can decipher words! Thanks so much!

there is something seriously wrong with the boys
we easily have more talent then washington

On King's Row, they could have easily switch to GOATS and just sat on the point to win, but nobody made that call

We'll have to see how Ark integrates into that roster. I've heard he's a solid caller.

I think justice could be rank 15-17 in this stage

@limber pine I wouldn't go so far as to 'win' It was pretty obvious Chengdu was using them like people used Shanghai/Florida in Season 1.
They basically dicked around trying out new stuff, like Jinmu Genji on Anubis A etc.

They should have easily won King's Row
The way you beat that comp is go sit on the point

Chengdu will be tight.
Florida, Houston and Washington should be on the easy end.

Washington could be scarier but they have garbage coaches who don't realize they could get away with not playing 3:3.

it was a much weaker atlanta team than normally

Shanghai is basically Kongdoo Panthera right? So why are they losing a lot? Poor coaching staff? Or is it because they don't have roar and decay
vale pond
shanghai isnt losing a ton esp compared to last season 0-42 shanghai
Id say 4-4 or whatever they have is p good
pearl stratus
A bit of Shanghai issues are coming from strength of schedule, more than anything.
With Gamsu being mostly integrated they have a solid team.
But they started Stage 2 against LAG and NYXL, which is tough for any team.
They have a lull in their schedule now with some mid/low teams.
Then they end the stage against Shock.
For the most part so far Shanghai's not had easy schedules. They've had all equal matches or more, minus their wins.
pearl stratus
NYXL loss was impressive too, if you didn't watch the game.
trim shadow
Until like atlanta
pearl stratus
It wasn't an easy win for NYXL.
trim shadow
Shanghai and chengdu are sleepers
pearl stratus
I don't think Shanghai is a sleeper anymore.
Like Sideshow said - they have perhaps the strongest dps core in the league right now.
trim shadow
Id say out of the teams to make end of season playoffs in the playoff
pearl stratus
And I think most teams respect that.
trim shadow
Shanghai chengdu or guangzhou can sneak in
Vancouver will still win season 2
San fran has the strongest dps core then shanghai
Then jinmu suprised everyone with his aggresive pharah play
Bacon is up and down
Happy is underperforming but we know he is a hitscan god
Toronto got 37 who looks nutty and makes owl look like a ladder game

covert coyote
yeah tbh i was thinking titans had a really good chance at maybe winning season 2

If there isnt big changes, like meta changing changes, and they run goats, theyre going to stomp any other team
Definitely the best goats team
Im not sure outside of goats since i havent seen it live but yeah
Other than bumper feeding theyre easily one of if not the strongest team
Haksal won them the first stage tho, i think shock wouldve won if moth wasnt stunned during beat

Vancouver has the whole thing I'd wager
But I'd be fine with Shock runner up.
Just as long as NYE don't win

pearl stratus
No
The reason being if you have to swap back for any reason mid-match you suddenly can't.
You don't have a MT.
Theoretically you could run without Bumper. But you restrict your ability to counter play heavily.

@night tusk hopefully the fake fans left with dafran
trim shadow
no im calling my own team bad cause of the coaching decisions
but now a butterfly told me daco and dogman are sick
minor flame
" if we at any point run into a Wrecking Ball/heavy DPS meta"
trim shadow
so atlanta is either weak or atlanta is still working out communication kinks
minor flame
so not in this meta talking about if they want to further nerf goats and bunker
trim shadow
this stage is gonna be a set back
minor flame
atlanta is both problems
trim shadow
not cause of dafran cause him and baby are basically the same
trim shadow
basically doing a valiant
minor flame
I also dont think Daco is going to magically fix their problems if he comes back
trim shadow
underperforming with there talent
minor flame
Daco doesnt play that much better than FRD
Masaa is like their best player still
Babybay is insane but his mechanics are almost as bad as Dafran
trim shadow
kodak and dog have there shining moments
minor flame
Kodak played decently
as he could in the scenario
dont know why people think Kodak is that shit
trim shadow
its just can we be philly and tie all this talent together
minor flame
its obvious that they target Kodak and its like
wtf do you want him to do as a zen player alot of the times
trim shadow
pokpo is also still dying first in most of atlants team fights
minor flame
Pokpo has a good winston
but its not that great to save him from mediocrity overall
his rein is still weak
lets see
Nlaeer
Nlaeer is like
ok?
from what ive seen
trim shadow
honestly atlanta should try to avoid goats for now unless they have todo it
which against nyxl theyll have to
but for valiant and washington force them to play your game
minor flame
its funny how atl fans are quick to think that casores is like best coach
when the boston match first half began
then a few days later the fans call the coaches shit
shit on the players too
trim shadow
casosres in stage 1 playoffs should me hes not a huk or a rui
showed*
the team as a whole should grow together
maybe stage 4 well see a ressurgance
night tusk
I can see Valiant anyday.. if they just figure out their problems lol
they had 2-3 with teams like NYXL
oh and soon they have to play against DC lol
but with 0-8 I don't see them going to the season playoffs or they have to win for the 8th place playoffs
trim shadow
remember there is a playoffs for the last 2 spots at the end of the season
i think the top 6 get in?
and then then rest compete for 7 and 8
trim shadow
wait you might be right
night tusk
than go to the finals because of the last competition
trim shadow
i should go back and watch pre season
night tusk
im not sure, just remember there will be one
shake "head coach" I thought Huk was the head coach

ik monte prides himself on being i guess straightforward
but putting atlanta at 17 is just a big fuck you to casores and all of the hardworking coaches
thats a really dick move
someone inform monte that daco is sick and frd is fried
anddd he moved guangzhou down to 16
at least atlanta took a map with a team who barely had any practice
queen drift
guangzhou have won 1 in their last 16 maps iirc
16th is generous
atlanta meh. id say 17th is a bit low, but they're not in form so i can understand it
but ?? "a big fuck you to casores and all of the hardworking coaches"
if you work hard and still lose you deserve to be criticised
if you work hard and win you deserve to be criticised
if you dont work hard and dont win, or you lose, you deserve to be criticised
trim shadow
heres the thing son
he put houston above atlanta
at 13
and they havent played
he also put paris above them at 15
who exploited a confused guangzhou
but got rolled by chengdu in both goats and dps
and hangzhou even tho on paper hangzhou should be a top ten team
but has shown that support and dps are falling behind and guxue and ria are hard carrying

Watch Val pop off on the LA match and only for the LA match
drowsy fulcrum
is Fastro in America yet?
pearl stratus
Probably not.
No point in moving him around till his suspension would be completely over.
drowsy fulcrum
I just want to see my boy rip shit in OWL
drowsy fulcrum
there are situations you'd want Fastro > Masaa
limber pine
not that I've seen
pearl stratus
Masaa being dead, for instance.
drowsy fulcrum
I mean Fastro is far better of a DM Lucio than Masaa
pearl stratus
Also FAstro would have to undergo his full suspension if he converted away from 2 way.
So the rumored 8-10+ games, or so.
drowsy fulcrum
It's at least better than teams hiring players and them not seeing play for a whole year
like half of last season's LAG
no wait it was LAV
pearl stratus
Age is different than being a booster.
Comparing a Space situation to FAstro is like...
Comparing Space to a giant pile of useless shit.
drowsy fulcrum
I was more talking about NL who's now doing insanely well in European Contender's
pearl stratus
Oh, NL was never going to start over Fate though. Not even close to better than him except on maybe Rein.
So that never bothered me.
He was a bench tank for scrims.
Nothing wrong with that.
drowsy fulcrum
still locked him from playing in Contender's which was the issue
and the reason I think 2-ways are cool
I feel like with Fastro currently being one of the most consistent players in top 500 and winning Euro Contender's Season 1 without dropping a game
a similar situation could occur like with Seagull
Masaa's too busy taking a huge shit, they put Fastro up, and he just schweeps
limber pine
Masaa was on the team that placed second
drowsy fulcrum
true
drowsy fulcrum
Fastro didn't play Stage 2 tho?
drowsy fulcrum
didn't they run CrusaDe a lot more than Fastro season 2 though?
due to the OWL rumours surrounding both him and Fusions
drowsy fulcrum
tbh all I wanted was Fastro in OWL but notlikethis lmao
Fastro on Chengdu would have been pog
pearl stratus
Yveltal is better, broader pool too.
Not even bias. Yveltal is just a monster support.
drowsy fulcrum
I feel like Fastro's super aggro lucio would have fit perfectly with Chengdu lmao
real talk where's Smex in the OWL
balmy wolf
There hasn't been any discussion about FunnyAstro's potential suspension.
It's not even on the OWL discipline tracer
I can't see a reason to play FunnyAstro over Masaa tbh. I think he'll mainly play in Contenders, play a couple of fanservice games here and there, and then get picked up by some other team with main support problems later down the line
pearl stratus
The discussion was why his initial trade fell apart.
But he's not an OWL player, technically, so they don't need to deal with it. He's a two way.
drowsy fulcrum
I mean we don't know
it's also possible that the deal fell through because he was warned against signing with Huk
limber pine
wut
trim shadow
Nyxl doesnt have to play this week
They can run wacky comps and outclass
Might even seen pine
limber pine
I'm sure he's getting around that as a two-way player
trim shadow
So he just settled then cause no one wanted to give him a superstar potential contract
balmy wolf
I doubt someone as good as FunnyAstro is gonna stay a substitute for long. He'll get a starting position on a team eventually.
I hope LAV pick him up.
trim shadow
Thats if masaa underperforms and astro comes in
balmy wolf
Yeah but Masaa is one of the best players on Atlanta, and FunnyAstro's contract limits the number of games he can play.
The only games I can see FunnyAstro playing are fanservice ones that don't really matter (like map 4s in an already won series), or against really weak teams.
i highly doubt masaa would get replaced
also funnyastro really superbly lacks that level of experience
actually i take that back
he has ample experience, its just less than most MS in the league
swift moth
also maasa has the advantage of being with the team for longer and understanding there coms better

Yea kate made a big off

And hes a first time coach i think

throw yourself at one of the players

If xl loses to Washington I’ll buy lunch for everyone in the server

Nobody will lose to Mayhem or Justice
That's the problem IMO
Too many toilet teams

@karmic grotto my apartment is on ground level

They really have us play Vancouver for our stage opener

oof
im convinced the reason nyxl wins all their games is because they get all the easy teams to beat
washington now

^^^^^^^^^^ this

then its mayhem

Some of these teams get a free ride to the later stages, if not playoffs
Look at Shock

Shock doesn't need that boost. The most challenging match they have to play is against TO. lol
