No it's because they have redundant connections to the power grid. Generators, and are usually excluded from "mandatory" power shutdowns (which we had in CA not too long ago)
Being told an electric substation went down in Allen, TX and took down power in a whole grid of the city. Unlucky! Hang in there!
you seem to be on time based on the progress we made on the stream
Did anyone noticed when they would do a follow camera or a pov the colours would become darker? It annoyed me.
Anyways
Yeah one of the observer's PCs had some really strange colour grading issues
so they only did one map, Busan and then poof, power died?
Some of the game audio sounds were really quiet too
Who is going to win?
or 
they did one round
ldn stomp
I luv fury no homo tho
Hey @DallasFuel if you’re too scared to play us you don’t have to trigger a blackout you can forfeit gracefully 👀
Hes so good
someone said it was between maps but.. there is no score yet.. so it had to have been during the Busan map
FeelsEUman
this is gonna cause havoc with the scheduling 

the one time eu has it nice.....
not really i just hope i get tokens for this time period.
god help me
https://twitter.com/hadynthenewsguy/status/1122175910541758469 idk if its really fun to share but when we wait I just share it
i shold have gotten a drop by now
Legit I wouldn’t have had to stay up all night to watch this but looks like I might have to now
40 minute delay, just dallas things
Well I don't know about yall, but all of us at the arena are just chillin
Whats wrong with the stream?
power outage
have fun in the arena !
Oof
Please stand by while we spew more ads on the OWL stream
I expected it tho
🌸 SPAM 🌸 THIS 🌸 FLOWER 🌸 TO 🌸 RESTORE 🌸 POWER 🌸
New arena
gonna make a tally of how many times I get the Britney advert today

And all
@opal spruce The outage led to me fucking up my knee because I got up and I'm clumsy
lol
@trim shadow area wide power outage
incoming articles about how overwatch is dead because of a power outage
atleast Blizzard can save their butts by mentioning it is not a internal cause of problem
Quick reminder that before the outage happened, they were trying to fix the game audio being too quiet and player cams being slightly greyed out
@trim shadow imagine a power outage in Atlanta homestand LUL
@worn hornet damn, I decided it was a good time to get beer
i just keep seeing Overwatch NERF gun ads
The pokemon song, they're playing the pokemon song
and good for them to learn from this aswell
feel bad for them eu bois
ok so
I side-kneed a door frame
power is valuable
houston is a superior city
LUL sombra hacked the arena
duh
Shes rigging games
get more UPS
STRONGEST EMP TO DATE
legit should’ve just stayed at bliz arena
I doubt atlanta will power outage
@fallen cloak power went out for like the whole area. its porbably not the leagues fault
@trim shadow or Sideshow pushed the wrong button. If you watch his streams, you know he can do really stupid things 😄
Atlanta is one of the top ten capitals in the us
I bet backup generators are going to be part of the required arena spec after today
@wintry kraken 
Let’s just blame it on sideshow
that's true superbowl a couple years ago lost power..
ooo what does this do PRESS
#blamesideshow
where was that SB held?
Bren: SIDESHOWWWWW
it just sucks that it was so soon into the first game, first day, first week of a home game
homestand aint off to a great start
Uk its weird i predicted a power outsge
first power failure
@trim shadow my favorite is his genji wall climb on paris map, double jump towards the river and then in panic he also uses the ult while drops in the water
But not after the first 5 minutes
@wintry kraken funniest shit I’ve ever seen
https://twitter.com/Spitfire/status/1122175680773541889 gestures fat shatter crashed the arena
REAL footage of what really happened
@Gesture too stronk https://t.co/YxvRCrARaf
sombra
LUL
LMAO
holy shit technicians and electricians do your jobs bruh
Its a new arena could take a minute
not a new arena
We are preparing to restart the match where we left off, with @Spitfire up 1-0 to @ParisEternal on the Busan map - the broadcast will return shortly.
Thank you for your patience!
they are.. people are saying the power is back but everything has to be set up again..
Yeah they’re gonna have to check the sound and everything first
Thnx for sharing
And the cameras
power resets make things go back to defualts
yep i did IT a long time ago
also they need to run sfc /scannnow on computers if they didn't screw up 😄
I would be so stressed if I worked for OWL right now
to bad the powerfailure didn't hit the stupid AD servers
I would be shitting if i was on the owl production team
to be fair, now maybe the game audio will actually work when the stream comes back
The memes are coming
The memes are coming
Great to hear 😃
what i like is that they have a tiered production. when the feed stopped, they defaulted to the PLEASE STAND BY fallout message 😄
Twitch chat must be mega toxic
Same it’s pretty funny
well now they need to install UPS on the stage PCs as well as the server so they have time to finish a map, or at least shut down properly.
Someone please clip twitch chats reaction
Nah, Twitch chat is pretty much this: 🌸 SPAM 🌸 THIS 🌸 FLOWER 🌸 TO 🌸 RESTORE 🌸 POWER 🌸
@trim shadow they spam flowers
yeah I can imagine twitch chat have no clue what’s happened
🌸 🌸 🌸
🌸 SPAM 🌸 THIS 🌸 FLOWER 🌸 TO 🌸 RESTORE 🌸 POWER 🌸
hehe
Twitch chat probably broke when gesture slammed
Lets not turn this into Twitch chat lol
what if this match was on ABC aswell
hehehehe 🌸
more ads will be on ABC
FLOWER POWER
Lul the baby boomers wouldve been like look at this trash

https://twitter.com/Slasher/status/1122180984533921792 slasher again
Tbh they could’ve replayed the preshow again or something while we wait
OOF
@ everyone in the arena, what are we watching?
LUL
Power going out is miles better then watchin paris struggle at goats
i get NOTHANG
the power going out at owl is the only way blizzard can get people to drink bud light
lmao

yeah i should have gotten a Twitch drop by now.. it's been over an hour since the pre-show started. GIMMEH MAH TOKENS
hurry up holy shit
i mean im still seeing twitch ads.. so gimme my drops OWL!!
1 hour delay :pog:
I don't mind if they delay playing but atleast start the camera and let the casters talk if they can (ofcourse if they already can)
its a power outage doe
I wonder how big team stadiums will be
power failires don't stop twitch ads...
they cant do anything 😪
I demand Blizzard break the laws of engineering and broadcast with no power.
Fuck the laws of energy.
do u think they’d do a spitfire stadium in London,it wouldn’t really make sense since everyone lives in the USA
wish i could send the clip of the exact moment the power went down as gesture earth shattered but i havent got trusted lul
https://twitter.com/Fusion/status/1110626184188956672 Philly arena is the only one yet that haves a preview
I hope Dallas goes to the Esports arena. Thing is massive and so fucking nice
like it’d be a struggle getting all the players over here for games
3500 damn
yea idk how theyd do international home games
oh enough fucking ads for overwatch nerf guns
They'll probably use the London Premier League stadium.
Since it has an e-sports arena inside of it.
That’s seems like a lot of traveling
ye
And were already in talks to use it.
i think theyd do like a bunch of games in NA then a bunch in EU etc
ITS BACK.. timer!
we back boys
1 minute!
WE BACK!
^
45 seconds
ITSD BACK
BLESS
40 seconds
`WE BACK

Lol that took awhile xD
HELL YEAHH

hurry the fuck up london
espots-discussion is just a better twitch chat dont @ me

ITS BACK BOIS
It's a power outage. They have no actual control over how fast the city gets it back.
REAL footage of what really happened
@Gesture too stronk https://t.co/YxvRCrARaf

"several people are typing"
this is better than twtich chat.
10k more viewers than before power was down
XD
“quick” power outage
power backups
They probably have a back up tool for it.
mention it was not just in the arena
I logged in just now
no
I like how they said they're blaiming Sombra
Just to watch Chengdu, but I guess not
LUL CASTERS POG
YAY

4Gitte Clap

It was resumed. London has already won Busan A
doesnt this look so bad?
Soon left the server
why is the screen still grey in first person mode
sounddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd
shit happens
I wonder if they know ??
they know
The sound was this low before the outage
the production is very underwhelming
colors fixed?
even the image
wait is this only the first map?
mhm
wasnt this supposed to start an hour ago
yeah there was an outage
they had a power outage
@minor flame power was down in dallas
power outage
beani back
Why are all the colours so washed
welcome back!
sounds like texas has this often
now where's @idle beacon
@balmy wolf we don't know, it just be that way today
Pause
Winston, hopefully, was extremely injured and lost both hands.
NICO ON DVA?
they are using nvenc on some pascal card clearly 😄
Only acceptable outcome.
roll tide
Why did it take me so long
player cams are still awful too
Why is nico playing dva
hes a decent dva
nico was known as a dva player aswell
good thing im watching endgame later on
dont read twitch chat lul
EZ BOIS GG
when you want to watch your team play in the league but it's just goats again
So nico is flex?
imagine taking a quick break when all we’ve had for the past hour is a quick break
hi semmler
also guys
watchu say semmler
It’s not a power outage
bro the production is sooooo bad
dude 100% some caster
London just crushed paris
is gonna say some dumb shit
Even without the power outage it’s trash
quick break divider
Inb4 Sombra returns
Nico was known as a genji player in rogue and could flex to dva. than became a dva player. not sure he was a brig player later on aswell
I actually don't know why I'm watching this. I don't even need tokens.
you wanna know who wins between Chengdu and Hangzhou
people who think Brig is the problem in GOATS
@pearl stratus meanwhile i am not getting any because screw huge chunk of EU
Yeah but why am I watching this game though. Like the Paris Cocks have no chance.
Chengdu yessssss
Eh.
paris cocks
Thats like missing hemorrhoids.
coqs
Cause you're all a pain in the ass.
@pearl stratus because you do not know when the second game starts
Woe is me
new music ?
no
this has been in for like weeks
And yes, Paris Cocks. Since that's their logo.
sideboob mercy shot
Colours are like slightly washed
Those skins are really ugly please delete
smile
omg
they clearly know their audience
im surprised the arena has this many fuckin people
BEER
Am I hearing things
my ears
can anyone else hear that beep
Or is there a beep
beep ? 😄
they are all paid actors, so who cares
this is actually horrible lol
😏
no beep for me
is profit okay
i guess im old
see
what can go wrong will go wrong today
oh they need to learn alot from this. make notes Nate Nanzer !
yeah there was definitely a beep in the background, but it's gone now
is a shitty idea
Awkward player cams
thats shadowburn?
this season was actually not planned to have home games but they have 3 home games. those games are like test home games and need to learn from it
AHHHH
even louder beep
WHAT THE FUCK
Lol
beep again
noooo
Those players would have been sat there not allowed to speak to each other for the duration of that outage 
subbing danye i-BEEEEEEEPPPPPP
Dallas Production
next up they kill all headphone users with beep
Oh that was them
last time it was twitch.. now dallas..
I thought my amp did that
im still surprised OWL gets this many people in a reg season game
oh the cams are the weird colours because of those backdrops
@minor flame not everyone can watch games in LA. so its like the only games you might be able to see if you live in Dallas
two widow
widow bastion?
oh nvm
goats again smile
nah
DPS? In my Overwatch?
It's more likely than you might think.
wtf are they doing
boats
?
are they waiting for their ult to come out by time ? 😄
no theyre waiting for lucio boost
nano bastion wtf
damn
Soon widow agane
Not respecting the widow smh
I did not expect them to use Bastion
why
It’s working pretty well though
why use goats to this
lets go danye
doesnt look like spitfire have scrimmed this
this particular bunker is a bit different tho
you dont normally have an aggro widow with it
true
paris about to get yeet off anubis point A
a widow is a problem
This is soon bunker
all i saw was him going in circles
London Confused

yeah London have got this now
still managed to cap
and it’ll probs be goats vs goats
saved grav as well
yep
KRUISE IS A FEEEDEER
grav, shatter, probably zen coming this fight
gg
i hate 2cp so much
get snowballed
KRUISE IS A FEEDER
2cp
everyone hates 2cp
i like it
hanamura makes me wanna put a stick up my ass
smile
ur silver tho
2cp is my favorite game mode in Overwatch Kapp
u can just run fuckin anything and roll if u wanted
wait what, did they re do the first point on Busan?
but they never showed them finishing it?
oh, so it wasn't streamed?
no?
the stream crashed at about 40% capture progress for Spitfire with Paris at 70%
no
but when the stream restarted, it was +1 to Spitfire?
nah first point was finished
oh
imagine only sleeping three hours for this
spitfire got first point
i only slept 3 hours anyway smile
EU friendly today hehehe
im eu
only sleeping 3 hours for 40 minutes of an outage
😄 🔫
profit hoarding heat packs
YEAH PARTY ANIMAL
no i just had a migraine
there is "kingsday" in my country, everyone is having a party and im home watching OWL 
ye
oh boi
soon getting fucking carried
nah its good team play
?
you can even be bad in widow to do something, they forced to play save
soon isnt getting picks because they're playing safe
oh nooo
Damn
but they're being punished for playing safe bc they have pharah sombra hamm
well weakness of not playing goats is capping the point.
profit
dude i dont understand why people suck profits skinny dick
Is London winning
!!!
Off to see endgame
r u kiddin me
S1 he was MVP in dps for sure
imagine using emp and still losing the fight
4/6 players hacked
i dont suck hotbas dick
Who is winning
thotba
london
idk who else is better than profit in dps roles
As expected
Libero
libero projectile, profit flex player.
libero is flex
he does not play tracer or mccree right ?
Yangxiaolong
oh paris
he plays both
:)
ye thats why u like me smile
smile
furrytracer
lmaO beani doesnt know
??
i got muted for saying shut up furry to fox
big dick small brain mod muted 2 people for saying shut up furry

soon is legit garbage
I think profit junkrat tracer HANZO YES mccree genji is better than Libero. Libero is better in Pharah and Brigitte
number 4th eaten
Soon was better on Valiant
profit out of those, only his tracer is better than libero imo
libero's hanzo during the playoffs was meh
meh i think profits hanzo only really stood out twice.. first vs a bad team on junkertown, second in finals
profit dont play widow, most real hitscan players take the zarya role
nyxls everything in the playoffs was meh
in the playoffs, profit > libero
in general libero > profit
only seoul does this different I guess
gg ez wp
ez clap, gg next
Spitfire are gonna 4-0 this ez
profit's peak > libero's
nah
Buisness as usual london
yuh
i have london 3-1
jjawho?
best dva cmon bruh
jja WHO
I almost fell asleep watching this game no lie
Paris should be the team who is strong on goats but if for example dive would be meta again than they would be weak.. but their goats is weak aswelll.....
choi > jjanu
haha no
choi > > > > > > jjanu
and FURYYYYYY
i rarely go 4-0
Vancouver will pummel shock if they meet again
yo fuck Dallas fuel
read the graphic
easy now @tidal trail
i like the mango too
wow so good I guess eating grav's is all that matters
in goats, yeah
jjanu has been huge sleeper
in goats eating gravs is fuckin huge

but fury is first and second in like everything
the dude who will get picked for owwc 😉
fuck off with these favor ads
mmm i dont think jjanu will get picked in all seriousness
lul ok
you either want all of titans or none of titans
they are all first class so it doesnt even matter
it does not matter if they pick london spitfire, seoul, NYXL or Titans full roster. KR will win OWWC anyway 
TRU
we had this big debate the other day
about optimal teams for each region
korea was just.. nyxl
take ldn or titans they still stomp
jjonak and ark? fleta carpe fate and fury are not in NYXL
hell take the koreans on bottom and mid tier teams they stomp
indeed before finals it was more NYXL
@night tusk reread what he said
ando im talking about a conversation here the other day
i think i lost the notepad file but it sohuld be in logs, one sec
Moth, Sleepy, Sinatraa, Hydration, Super, Space
Danteh, Surefour
Masaa, Unkoe, Linkzr, ShaDowBurn, LhCloudy, rCk
Snillo, Greyy
Yveltal, Kyo, YXL, Krystal, Guxue, Elsa
Ameng, Jinmu
Anamo, JJoNaK, Nenne, Libero, Mano, Meko
Carpe, Viol2t
NA, EU, CN, KR
main roster + 2 subs
take the koreans on bottom tier teams they still win
... no
middle tier teams as well
florida exists
The casters will nut when they taste true southern cooking in atlanta
washington exists
Mayhem is worse than Runaway 
for sure
@queen drift i meant mid tier we dont speak of mayhem and justice
whos mid tier korean teams rn
Gonna have all the players come over to london homestand and make them have tea and crumpets
Mayhem academy won atleast from fusion uni
mayhem is a shed of washedout meta athena players
lol thjere are tho
meta athena deserve better representation than a bastard european roster for a western franchise
All tiks sold out in 2 day spantime
HEH PROFIT
Mayhem would lose
your not getting what Im saying
wait profit widow 😮
London would lose
london would not lose to other countries omegalul
how?
shadowburn should be playing junkrat..
this feels like storm rising strats rather than a serious strategy
london currently outclassed by western players on shock
paris holding a little window with orisa barrier
sinatraa dps
sinatraa is equal to profit?
That was a bad bunker
rascal is korean
Wrong
what are u talking about
Chineese american im sure
yuh
i still disagree
Jay Won is a korean born in the US
I thought you were saying against usa
birdrings widow is meh now
Corey?
Surefour is canadian isnt he
yuh
tbh I think Corey is on par with Birdring post injury
Family Life
Jay [Sinatraa] Won grew up in Shoreline, Washington alongside his older brother June. His father is from South Korea and his mother is from Germany.
``` @trim shadow
Is Colorhex american
did atlanta and nyxl play yet? if so dont spoil the outcome
dunno which
Yes they did play where tf have you been
FUK
no i mean, didnt they have to play again
Could dumb it down to american

They play em next week
englishj
@minor flame colourhex is a combination of six alphanumeric characters #06ccff
kys
they had to play 2 times
ColourHex the player
he's american wdym
is from Christchurch, NZ
he can speak it im p sure
honestly if the Koreans have to learn English I think all the other players should make an effort to learn a bit of Korean
they do
nah he doesnt understand when he plays with koreans
like when he duoed with jjonak
@minor flame did atlanta n nyxl play their second game against each other?
No
everyone should just learn a dead language, like french
so many different languages, why can’t every country just speak the same one
Rookie is a korean player that plays for a chinese pro team in lol. there is no difference between him and a native when speaking. Nobody is like that in owl
Cause that would require everyone to not be split by the ocean for billions of yrs
i mean,even European countries that are right next to each other speak different languages
we speak each others languages a lot
they're based off of 2 languages, mainly
latin and gothic
gothic girls
sdb 
I think a lot of countries speak like German and French too, like Switzerland
belgium speaks dutch (90%) and france
mmh not really
Soon NA ulting
isnt it mostly dutch/french with some flemish
flemish is dutch 90% lol
most belgians i know speak flemish as their first
just some little different words
but dutch is significantly german hah
nah
nice ult sdb
everyone can understand flemish, not german
hey, Can i watch the game live in command center?
yes
or is it after it is done?
live
a lot of Moroccans speak french
dude i was so confused
i thought you were talking about
monaco
i was like
no shit
bruh
realised i read it wrong
forced 222 is coming
canada speaks france right ?
nah, french people speak canadian

i will be fine with forced 2-2-2 if it means people stop filling
only one province does
yuh
more like 3 provinces but ye
I wish It was more common in the uk to speak other languages, but in some ways the amount of different accents we have is like having different languages
london has been smacking them for 2 maps
feel bad for shadowburn, he was a good dps on a good team, now thiss
Rockets vs GSW lets go dude
yum
sdb wasnt a great dps
shadowburn was a benchbou
fury agane
only pharah / genji
that soon grav lmao
CHOMP
even his genji wasnt good on philli
that was not very smart buddy
SDB was a decent 2 trick
5th
how much more do u think the casters are gonna suck fury’s dick
how many gravs has he eaten?
they have time
he literally yeeted on the second point
so if u saw 2 first its 4 minimum
even after they were up 2 people
idc* who wins but if paris take this somehow atleast 4th map is not boring
they can still take this point
not if they got overtime
they get a minute
they got a min
no
overtime wasn’t triggered
ahh
ah kkkf
how long did they have left lol

lol nico who had emp died...
wow
nico throw
cut down at the gate
how did he feed before fight even started
how u get hacked as sombra, thats new.
u supposed to be invisable
u figured he would take the long flank through the hotel
remember before the season started and people were hyping paris
gesture LUL
LMAO
LMAOO
CAUGHT
someone screencap

GETTING SNIPED BY GESTURE LUUUL
london was not even on his final form 
gesture is good at widow wdym
soon got so disrespected
Did Gesture kill Soon on widow??
Yes
he was styling on diya when he played against shd last season
yes
gg
"Paris has the best goats"
gg
who was waiting or expected that?
paris is not gonna live that down
told u 4-0 ez clap
GESTURE WIDOW 
they really should look to eliminate the 4th map if the round is already over
does anyone got the clip of gesture ? xd
who likes watching a pointless map
also where is finnsi?
it's for map differential
at this rate I could probably win a widow 1v1 against soon
for the season
???
im aware of map differential but i still think they should get rid of the 4th map if the game is already over
dallas got into the stage 4 playoffs due to a map 4 by spitfire
so they should give a free map to London?
it's there for a reason
for map differential?
courtesy of @nova wadi
cause i don't understand how are you proposing them to get rid of match 4
not as bad as the 1st week of stage 1
o no i missed it
Moira OMG
no they dont give a free map there just is no map lol. it doesnt really need to exist. london gets 3 maps, paris gets 0, game is over @vagrant niche
^^^^^
so dont discuss things you disagree with that could make the league better? like getting rid of pointless games?
theyre not pointless
its not good for viewership to have these either
they're quite literally worth 1 point
Like I said, dallas got into stage playoffs due to london winning 1 map
London lost that game but that 1 map point enable dallas to move up
Mace to the face
they almost full held that
aaaand stream is dead again
🙂
ah, pause/play helps
which one
inb4 i get muted for using messages out of the DM convo ill just pm it
lmaO
last week bunny ears, today cowboy hat
Can you earn league tokens via watching on mobile?

the yottachad is out tonight
love me some yottachad ameng
ok so. i keep hearing yottachad get thrown around.. what is that?
it's ameng
In the dictionary the actually definition for yottachad just says ameng

some variations say ameng on rein tho
