[vale pond]

diem feeds

why was he there

[night tusk]

if shanghai somehow take this point, the next point is a dps friendly point. But I think they still will stay on goats

[mint turtle]

Sf actually playing moira

[night tusk]

moira to cancel hack easier

[vale pond]

its working

[night tusk]

big emp

[opal spruce]

so is this really happening?

[night tusk]

Pog

[vale pond]

lmaoo

[night tusk]

they went for the risky grav

[tawny sigil]

classic get off my lawn

[reef imp]

Denied!

[night tusk]

suprised that it was not eaten

[minor flame]

yes

[vale pond]

dps friendly now

[minor flame]

we can do better

[opal spruce]

so how much money could you make if you bet on a shanghai v dallas final for the stage

[minor flame]

if we play a little bit better

thank you coach

[night tusk]

think choi did not expect the yolo grav

[minor flame]

very respectable statement

[vale pond]

nice

[minor flame]

yo

Shanghai learned

Luffy isnt in shocks way now

woa

choihyobin staggers himself

[night tusk]

this is the point where dps play but shock want to be titans so they stay goats

[vale pond]

lul

holy shit spawncamping

[tawny sigil]

shanghai loss the last week match on purpose

[quasi stump]

Let's fuckin goooo

[minor flame]

shock is aggressive?

nah

[night tusk]

but what titans do is let seominsoo play mccree.. where is sinatraa right now

[south brook]

This is spicy

[minor flame]

its fucking shanghai now

[visual glen]

inb4 Shock lose the series

[minor flame]

big stall

[night tusk]

back to goats

[south brook]

Shouldn’t have swapped

[minor flame]

you have to

its better to penetrate with 3/3

than it is with 3 dps

[south brook]

I know, but still sad

Then again only one fight so they can still do it

[night tusk]

I think this is btw their weakness. Titans vs hunters and stuff they play mccree and swap directly when pharah is swapped to goats. but Sinatraa / shock did not practice for mccree

[vale pond]

shanghai win the map

[quasi stump]

YESSSS

[south brook]

oh damn

[night tusk]

LETS GO

[minor flame]

THEY BROKE

[median coyote]

More importantly SHD looked real good

[vagrant niche]

I WAS HERE

[fervent finch]

big boi tactics

[finite pagoda]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[vagrant niche]

wrong chat

[grim field]

WHOOO

[atomic flame]

I’m in shock

[vale pond]

told u so lol

[vagrant niche]

[grim field]

LETS GO SHANGHAI

[trim shadow]

Gamsu did a bumper charge

[balmy wolf]

DRAGONS DID IT

[atomic flame]

[balmy wolf]

THE MAD LADS

[opal spruce]

@atomic flame you proud of that one?

[grim field]

im not really a shock fan

[worn hornet]

@atomic flame GTFO with those puns

[grim field]

i mean i like them

[fervent finch]

i'm suprised

[grim field]

but im rooting for shanghai

[fervent finch]

but

[trim shadow]

I BELIEVE IN SHANGHAI

[fervent finch]

good for them

[tardy isle]

OWL is an anime about how shanghai went from being a nobody to the best team in the league

[trim shadow]

First time@in playoffs

[night tusk]

LETS GO

[supple prism]

still took them 5 maps to do it

[vale pond]

they have a huge advantage

[trim shadow]

GO FOR STAGE 2 CHAMPIONS

[atomic flame]

I honestly hope Shanghai pulls it out. That would be so awesome for them

[night tusk]

still its just one map and might be shanghai best map. idk if we have kingsrow today aswell

[grim field]

the sombra play just absolutely destroys the shock

they need to learn to adapt

[quasi stump]

that plus dding is just a beast sombra anyway

[trim shadow]

Remember

[south brook]

True one map isn’t everything

[trim shadow]

Super hates sombra

[south brook]

But they’ve got momentum

[grim field]

and shock gets tilted

[fast basin]

quite intriguing

does this mean Dallas will win

[grim field]

nah

[night tusk]

erik lonnquist (@ggDoA)

Shanghai Dragons end the longest map win streak ever! Now that’s how you start a playoff match! I’m not talking upsets until we see a non-control map though! #OWL2019

Twitter

[grim field]

vancouver is better

vancouver is able to adapt and play not 3 3

[worn hornet]

wait is twitch really a half-map behind?

[grim field]

to what?

[worn hornet]

my stream Eichenwalde is just starting

[quasi stump]

yeah

[night tusk]

this map is better than kingsrow atleast

[quasi stump]

@worn hornet what do you mean by half a map behind

[grim field]

i normally watch on OWL app but it doesnt work sometimes

[quasi stump]

do you mean that 1-0 on the end? that's the map score

[inland pawn]

TRACER Pog

[night tusk]

he thinks the picture 2-1 is the map score

[grim field]

lol

[worn hornet]

I'm seeing the 1-0 in the 2nd column

[inland pawn]

DING

DONG

[grim field]

thats the map score

[quasi stump]

fuck's sake

[night tusk]

[quasi stump]

dding

[finite pagoda]

Why isn't Avast streaming?

[grim field]

DDING

CALM DOWN

[quasi stump]

@worn hornet because shanghai won the first map and is up 1-0 lol

[supple prism]

think avast is sick

[reef imp]

He's not a bad Pharah, either.

[balmy wolf]

Can Viol2t not play Ana? He really seems to prefer Moira

[supple prism]

watch swimmer

[night tusk]

sinatraa sombra now they did not practice this

[pale sail]

Wow, looking great so far

[worn hornet]

@quasi stump on the stream as I'm receiving it Shanghai capped point A like 15 seconds ago

[night tusk]

I realize their weakness what titans have a solution to. is the pharah

[quasi stump]

@worn hornet yes you are watching live. that 1-0 you see in the second column is the overall match score. shanghai is up 1-0

[night tusk]

last time choi was carrying

[balmy wolf]

I'm just confused, wouldn't an Ana get better value than a Moira

[quasi stump]

that 1-0 is not the eichenwalde score

[pale sail]

Violet is not playing well

[grim field]

no

[balmy wolf]

Viol2t really needs to stop relying on Moira

[grim field]

hes normally so reliable

[night tusk]

moira winston goats is the best comp vs dps comp is mentioned often

[grim field]

but just not today

[pale sail]

Problem is you lose the range that Zen provides.

[grim field]

^

and the ult

[pale sail]

Discord Orb can do a whole lot to counter a Phara.

[grim field]

but more raw heals

[worn hornet]

Hey Sinatraa remember when your main tank said Sombra was a crutch?

[grim field]

calling emp single ult investment

lol

[night tusk]

you got auto aim and can avoid other heroes like genji easy with moira

super solo carry right now

[worn hornet]

Do we know yet if Havana is going to be in the Stage 3 map pool?

[grim field]

hes making up for the crutch

[pale sail]

Probably

[night tusk]

I guess so

[grim field]

over ulting?

[pale sail]

They're got the All Star break coming up, so they should have time to learn it

[grim field]

idk feels like it

[opal spruce]

would it be? dont they run a patch behind? is there gonna be another patch before june?

[quasi stump]

they're trying to keep it current this season

[grim field]

SUPER

[night tusk]

this season they try to match a patch with stages

[opal spruce]

oohhh

[grim field]

WHY

[opal spruce]

that makes sense

[gaunt acorn]

@opal spruce they ran on live patch last time

[grim field]

wait

[reef imp]

Melted.

[grim field]

im dumb

[gaunt acorn]

havana will likely be in stage 3

[grim field]

damn

sinatraa just got absolutely destroyed

[upper niche]

SFS are using the NYXL finals strategy.

[grim field]

my old ipad is behind

[quasi stump]

watch the shatter

super hacked nice

oh shit

[reef imp]

"super well"

dammit

[quasi stump]

"super has maintained his composure super well"

[grim field]

damn wtf

[night tusk]

6 man

[quasi stump]

GOOO

[finite pagoda]

MAINTAIN COMPOSURE avastWrinkle

[night tusk]

omg what!

[quasi stump]

fuuuuu

[night tusk]

NO

it was winnable

[pale sail]

Aw, so close!

[vagrant niche]

that was pretty close

[pale sail]

Coma almost snuck the cap during that grav

[grim field]

if they play a smart comp they can hold this

[reef imp]

Still pretty far. If their defense is on point, it should be in the bag.

[night tusk]

[upper niche]

[reef imp]

Yes.

[grim field]

shanghai nails lol

[worn hornet]

[dreamy cave]

[quasi stump]

not ideal

[grim field]

oh god

[reef imp]

...Crap.

[night tusk]

shanghai playing shock game now

[grim field]

jesus

[pale sail]

I would have liked the Dragons to try some wacky defense there

[supple prism]

speed run

[grim field]

they mightve done better with a wacky defense

[vale pond]

moth

[quasi stump]

jesus

[vale pond]

I dont see shanghai winning this map

[reef imp]

EEEEHHHH...

[pale sail]

Oh, not good

[quasi stump]

this is looking bad

[opal spruce]

moth tried so hard for that boop

[night tusk]

5/6 man emp's but no value

[teal fossil]

6 minute defense. This is fine

[worn hornet]

I just noticed the back of dva's mech has eyes and teeth

[grim field]

they shouldnt have dedicated emp

[vale pond]

smh

[quasi stump]

that's game lol

[night tusk]

[vale pond]

they rolled that map

[reef imp]

OW.

[quasi stump]

that wasn't even close

[vagrant niche]

ROLLED

[fervent finch]

well now

[pale sail]

Welp, tie series

[south brook]

Um

[teal fossil]

[south brook]

Sorry Shanghai

[fervent finch]

had to happen eventually

[night tusk]

https://twitter.com/ggHarsha/status/1126663629418328064 this is how titans watch OWL

Harsha Bandi (@ggHarsha)

Playoff time #OWL2019

Twitter

[median coyote]

What's the record eichenwalde time?

[teal fossil]

Kings row at least?

[pale sail]

Maybe that

[balmy wolf]

[pale sail]

I don't think Kings Row is gonna happen

[tawny sigil]

that's some low tier watching

[grim field]

that was not pretty

[pale sail]

They just played Hybrid

[tawny sigil]

door open with light coming out is low tier

[night tusk]

they relaxing

and know they gonna roll

[grim field]

lol

[supple prism]

afraid of total darkness

need that escape route

[grim field]

honestly if anything shocks performance here is just giving tools to vancouver

[dreamy cave]

i miss how they were doing run backs of the maps inbetween maps.

it was better than this

[grim field]

i think shock in this match is making a Vancouver win more definite

[tired mango]

tf happened how did shanghai take a map just got here

[dreamy cave]

nahh, think shock still got a chance

[pale sail]

I think Vancouver is the better team regardless

[grim field]

cause the shock cant adapt

and vancouver can

i.e they are better

[supple prism]

what do you mean shock cant adapt?

[grim field]

wdym what do i mean?

they get rolled by dps and sombra

[dreamy cave]

if they didnt drop the streak today it would have been later

[grim field]

and only play 3 3

they dont adapt

[vale pond]

"rawkus"?

[supple prism]

they played quad tanks and even have sinatraa play sombra

[grim field]

sinatraa desperate swapped

and changed right back

cause it wasnt practiced

[vale pond]

oof

[supple prism]

they even 4-0ed SHD even though they had this comp before

[grim field]

yes but shanghai has clearly grown

[vale pond]

where shanghai plays dps they win

[pale sail]

They barely 4-0d Shanghai though

[grim field]

^

[vale pond]

the 4-0 every map was close

dont get tricked by the numbers

it easily could have been 3-2

[grim field]

also shock only plays the goats game. and vancouver plays it better

[supple prism]

shock is closer to titans than SHD is to shock

[opal spruce]

@random valve no

[dreamy cave]

idk i feel like they just werent that serious at the start of the match

[random valve]

this is wrong chat

again

i messed up

[balmy wolf]

feels like shock were warming up

[random valve]

UGGHHHHH

[dreamy cave]

dding has aslo been a big play maker for shanghai

[random valve]

i hate myself

[dreamy cave]

shanghai will do better with there current comp rather thn switching to 3-3

[balmy wolf]

well they have to

since apparently all dva options are bad for them

[dreamy cave]

there doing better this set because they played them not that long ago

[grim field]

how about delete it @random valve

[dreamy cave]

so there play style is fresh in their minds and there flexing around them

[random valve]

thats alot of work for my life i was adopted its sad

[grim field]

thats tough

battle royale competitive is gay

[random valve]

omg my fridns says that allot

[grim field]

honestly you probably suck at all 3

[fervent finch]

when will we see dps used commonly again? the world may never know

[grim field]

i have fortnite uninstalled and ill bet im still better than you

[dreamy cave]

it was litter not even that long ago..

[grim field]

we might @fervent finch if they add role lock

[fervent finch]

they did say that

i heard about that today

[dreamy cave]

nooo thats a terrible idea

[night tusk]

I did not know lucio could boop someone

[fervent finch]

...

[quasi stump]

I didn't know what a boop was, thanks guys

[grim field]

did he say ilios gardens?

[opal spruce]

i questioned that too

[grim field]

he said all the ilios maps are good for boops

[opal spruce]

thats the one inside a box right

basically

[fervent finch]

paris it is

[grim field]

thats ruins

[opal spruce]

oh right

[night tusk]

record from shock

[opal spruce]

shit what is gardens

[night tusk]

speedrunning again

[quasi stump]

they picked paris?

[vale pond]

6 round paris time

[grim field]

there is no gardens

thats why im confused

[night tusk]

GDQ guys. Paris any%

[grim field]

ilios maps are well, ruins, and lighthouse

[supple prism]

no record for SHD

[night tusk]

they dont even play dps comp

[opal spruce]

must have meant ruins but thought of lijiang

[vale pond]

murphys law

who else plays today

[quasi stump]

spitfire spark

[vale pond]

oh

[quasi stump]

ayyy there we go

[vale pond]

alright a bit slow but its first point paris

[pale sail]

They need to cap B

[night tusk]

almost 6 ults

[vale pond]

wtf was that grav

super didnt get pulled

[night tusk]

not trans and now sinatraa is 50%

[vale pond]

until after he shattered

[worn hornet]

I wonder if the shatter animation overrides grav

[quasi stump]

good start to the fight

keep it going

noice

[pale sail]

There we go!

[forest wharf]

[vale pond]

I guess it does

that should be fixed

it could have cost the fight

[fervent finch]

emp=win

at this point

[balmy wolf]

basically

which is not saying much if thats all you can do to win fights

[fervent finch]

the two good pushes by the Dragons both resulted off of emp

that's their only win

other than that

[balmy wolf]

yeah DDING is a hard carry tbh

[fervent finch]

they have nothing

[pale sail]

Well, not having a D.Va means they can't try and bait out Grav, and they really can't solo dive a support or anything

[balmy wolf]

yeah

[pale sail]

They either need a pick, or to capitalize off EMP

[forest wharf]

why do they still not have a dva player?

[night tusk]

is there someone who enjoy playing on this map ?

[pale sail]

Because they feel they're better with Sombra

[forest wharf]

[pale sail]

And Geguri can't really play Sombra

[night tusk]

OMG

[quasi stump]

holy dding

[vale pond]

wow

[reef imp]

Not this time!

[quasi stump]

that was actually sick

[night tusk]

insane

[pale sail]

Nice barrage!

[quasi stump]

fucking nice 180 to avoid killing himself

[vale pond]

[fervent finch]

dding is hard carrying tbh

[visual glen]

Maybe they should deal with the Pharah idk

[quasi stump]

oh shit the bomnb

[south brook]

Welp

[forest wharf]

Watch them get a better bank

[pale sail]

[grim field]

[tawny sigil]

super did a risky play that somehow payed off

[dreamy cave]

yooo thats so wild,

[grim field]

[forest wharf]

sleepy died for this

[south brook]

Shanghai can’t be too disappointed in their play today, whatever happens

[north beacon]

Shanghai almost held that. Crazy

[grim field]

oh god

they get so much time wtf i forgot

[quasi stump]

so much for the dragons leaning on sombra to win fights lul

[vale pond]

wow

[inland pawn]

Dding is popping off

[vale pond]

[supple prism]

why is super putting himself into the corner\

[vale pond]

they won that on sheer ult advantage

[grim field]

unlucky

[pale sail]

Dragons with the time advantage

[south brook]

True

[grim field]

and barely

[dreamy cave]

dding last one aive

[north beacon]

@supple prism being super aggressive

[grim field]

that was too dicey considering the ults they hd

[north beacon]

They had lots of ults, maybe he felt it was worth the risk

[grim field]

i thought that emp might be huge

[fervent finch]

ults also win fights

[dreamy cave]

i thought there were going to lose it after the 6 man emp

[pale sail]

He knew he had to land a Shatter, that's why he pushed in so much

[fervent finch]

wow

[vale pond]

phara again

one hold and its prob over

[north beacon]

Can dding repeat that point A though...

Idk

[dreamy cave]

[quasi stump]

hell yeah he can

[pale sail]

If they can hold Shock at A, they can take this map.

[grim field]

shock doing nothing different

[vale pond]

ayy

[quasi stump]

there it is lol

oh

[grim field]

so he can

[quasi stump]

Mad unfair

[vale pond]

[north beacon]

That was a weird point A

[grim field]

id be mad as dding

[pale sail]

They really aren't that behind on Ults though

[grim field]

Shanghai getting hopes up and shock tearing them down

[north beacon]

Yeah that was Shanghai messing up. They could have held it

[fervent finch]

that was a choke and a half

[dreamy cave]

ddings back must be sore asf

[grim field]

[pale sail]

Gotta take A first push here

[grim field]

attacker spawn advantage on A is gross

[night tusk]

[visual glen]

Paris is awful

[vale pond]

[south brook]

Oh shit

[forest wharf]

[vale pond]

[grim field]

[night tusk]

why you hate this map? this is my favorite map of the game 😃

[vale pond]

it just seems bigger

what

[reef imp]

WHAT IS HAPPENING

[grim field]

no because of the way point a is designed attackers have close spawn

[night tusk]

2cp is the best mode in this game 😄

[north beacon]

Ahhh THATS the SHD I remember from S1

[grim field]

THROW

THROW

[south brook]

I take it back. Shanghai should be disappointed with that one

[distant badger]

RIGGED

[north beacon]

Nostalgia to season 1 dragons

[balmy wolf]

VIOLET GOT SPAWN CAMPED AND THEY STILL LOSE

HOW

[vale pond]

paid actors

[inland pawn]

the SHD from S1 wouldnt even be in the playoffs lol

[grim field]

i know i am @maiden glen

[maiden glen]

bro

[karmic grotto]

Choking

[maiden glen]

dont make me say it

[pale sail]

So, it's Escort, probably Junker Town?

[supple prism]

spawned camped by who?

[distant badger]

This is the downer episode of the anime where the underdogs just can't beat the champs

[balmy wolf]

dding

[vale pond]

dding

[grim field]

say what bish

[balmy wolf]

dding killed zen when he was coming out

[maiden glen]

you are plat on console

i said it

[dreamy cave]

i dont wanna see junker town

[visual glen]

Rest of the team too heavy for dding

[vale pond]

honestly a lot of this has been gamsu

he's overextending

[visual glen]

His spine snapped

[vale pond]

and dying as a result

[grim field]

[forest wharf]

the 3iq bronze tweets that think they know what theyre talking about

[grim field]

lol

[reef junco]

I'm in 7th grade and want to start a yea sports team where should I start

Ea

[grim field]

[reef junco]

Not yea

[grim field]

first of all

[visual glen]

[grim field]

know that it is e sports

thats your first steps

[forest wharf]

WizardHyeong has some of the smartest set plays and guys like Janus and Sansam execute them to perfection. Once Sleepy gets more comfortable playing with the rest of the roster, I can see them being at least a top 5 team

[tawny sigil]

get insured against sleep dart with state farm

[dreamy cave]

lol

[tawny sigil]

thats what i got from that ad

[vale pond]

@forest wharf where can I get what you're smoking?

[reef junco]

It auto corrected @grim field

[balmy wolf]

its a copy pasta

[tardy isle]

Dude

[forest wharf]

[tardy isle]

I’d totally buy sleep dart insurance

[grim field]

the time is now shanghai

[balmy wolf]

dragons are probs mentally boomed after that map

[visual glen]

Time to choke

[grim field]

if theyve got surprises we need them NOW

[vale pond]

they got boomed after fucking up the defense

[night tusk]

Wolf Schröder (@proxywolf)

Shanghai lost that map when they overextended on the second defense. Everything can change in one single moment in competitive Overwatch. It is a punishing game and I love it. Three minutes to one? Shock delete that advantage when SHD overextend. #OWL2019

[grim field]

CMON SHANGHAI

[pale sail]

Rialto, interesting.

[vale pond]

[pale sail]

Wipeout.

[grim field]

Mentally boomed

[grim field]

[inland pawn]

na shatter

[night tusk]

gamsu is really not peforming today..

[grim field]

did he just praise gomsu?

[vale pond]

WHY

[visual glen]

Pressed shift into enemy team

[pale sail]

Diem please

[visual glen]

Gamsu

[grim field]

diem

bruh

[dreamy cave]

diem throwing

sad

[inland pawn]

report diem and gamsu for throwing

wtf

[gaunt acorn]

diem is a feeder

gamsu just isn't get bubbled by diem

[pale sail]

Well, just gotta cap it faster, I guess.

[dreamy cave]

support ults coming out without the tanks there

wiffed gravs

[vale pond]

ult usage has generally been awful this game

[pale sail]

Well, 2/3 of the Gravs from Diem were terrible.

[vale pond]

2 min could have been worse

[night tusk]

shanghai "bunch of contenders players" lol titans aswell

[fervent finch]

Moth at the desk! yes please

[vale pond]

biased casting 4hea

[grim field]

well i had hope for shanghai

[karmic grotto]

Always biased

[night tusk]

I think this strat is a freestyle btw

[vale pond]

every time they get choi to turn away they win

[visual glen]

Lol the Dva just flew past casually

[pale sail]

Alright, this is working so far

[night tusk]

they practiced sombra but saw value of the pharah so coach said. just play pharah now

[supple prism]

violet unlocked ana

[night tusk]

[pale sail]

They've got 4 ults

Maybe they can get this?

[fervent finch]

violet is a great support in general, not just zen

[quasi stump]

they got it

two more points to go

[fervent finch]

hmm

[pale sail]

Got A!

[fervent finch]

well

[pale sail]

Just need to be perfect from here on out

[fervent finch]

they need all the fights

[quasi stump]

this ain't it, chief

[pale sail]

They are not doing it

[night tusk]

shieldbash pog

[quasi stump]

nice deny on the shatter

[pearl stratus]

I never expected Shanghai to win, honestly. Just expected a really solid series.

Which we've got.

[pale sail]

Even if they're full pushing the whole time, best case is OT when they cap this

If they cap this

[fervent finch]

Hammer stunned

[visual glen]

What

Lol

Both trans so weird

[night tusk]

gg

[quasi stump]

rip

[visual glen]

👋

[serene tendon]

gamsu is really struggling today

[fervent finch]

that's the game folks

[supple prism]

vaporized

[balmy wolf]

yikes

[pale sail]

Dang

[inland pawn]

-_-

[fervent finch]

gg

[night tusk]

:bib

[karmic grotto]

-. -

[night tusk]

😢

[pale sail]

Started strong, just couldn't make it happen.

[fervent finch]

that was a good match

[forest wharf]

[trim shadow]

sigh

[karmic grotto]

Just wondering if dding could play Doomfist into this

[dreamy cave]

sad

[fervent finch]

no doubt

[dreamy cave]

hurts

[trim shadow]

I hate my life

[reef imp]

They made it this far. That's the silver lining here.

[pale sail]

I think they put up more of a fight than people expected them to.

[trim shadow]

This is pain

[pearl stratus]

@karmic grotto Shock rotate too well against it.

[karmic grotto]

So?

[fervent finch]

give the dragons credit, they fought for it

but not enough

[pearl stratus]

They just stop the stuns on Gamsu and move them to the Doom, and eat the Doom. They tried it last series.

[trim shadow]

Just watched my hopes and dreams get shattered

[pearl stratus]

It'd be stupid to try it again.

[trim shadow]

To a mental boom

[pale sail]

Plenty for the Dragons to work with, build on this and make it further in stage 3. Go Dragons!

[night tusk]

playoffs and still empty ..

[fervent finch]

yeet

[trim shadow]

Vancouver

4-0 shock

[karmic grotto]

Time for spark and spitfire

[south brook]

Sloppy team

Oh jeez

[visual glen]

[vagrant niche]

this woman so freaking fake

[pearl stratus]

Nah its just Super being Super.

[fervent finch]

Super really getting on the Sombra tho

[pearl stratus]

Remember he also said his team was shit against Sombra last time 😛

[north beacon]

@vagrant niche she’s basically an actress

[fervent finch]

Moth boi

[grim field]

i mean they didnt decisively win till last map

[pearl stratus]

If you don't like Mica you should drink bleach.

[grim field]

so

[pearl stratus]

Thats Reading Rainbows daughter.

[grim field]

not that sloppy

[balmy wolf]

lets see if spitfire playoff mode switches on

[pearl stratus]

And we don't insult Lavar Burton.

[vagrant niche]

a bad one that is, cause she makes it really obvious she's not into that

[fervent finch]

ok, that's what i wanted to see, gn boys and girls

[minor flame]

Not a bad match

[vagrant niche]

everything she says come off non genuine

[minor flame]

Still played well

[grim field]

i like mica

[pale sail]

Mica is great man

She was great when she worked at Rooster Teeth

[minor flame]

Viol2t and Moth are carries

[pearl stratus]

Honestly Luffy and Coma have improved a lot more than I expected.

[pale sail]

As supports do

[pearl stratus]

Early start to the season I had them pegged as the worst part of the line up.

And was hoping they'd pick up another Lucio.

But the two of them have stepped up like crazy.

I still give most improved player to Gamsu though. Season 1 and Season 2 Gamsu are literally nothing alike.

[balmy wolf]

im leaning more towards spark to win this

but spitfire in playoffs is always scary to see

[night tusk]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D6LAvhMVUAAPy2e.png

[pale sail]

I hope Spark take this

[pearl stratus]

I severely doubt they will.

Unless London just drops every ball in the world.

[balmy wolf]

either way titans are gonna sweep once either one wins

so it doesn't really matter ig

[tawny sigil]

london about to do their random choke

[pearl stratus]

The only "upset" I expect is LAG over NYXL.

[pale sail]

I do think Titans win this stage. They just seem like the most complete team right now.

[tawny sigil]

you know vancouver vs new york is not happening

[pearl stratus]

I think Shock are overall better this stage. But neither team had to play hard teams, so its hard to tell.

But Shock finally fixing Rascal in kind of solidified them to a scary spot.

[minor flame]

People dont say this much

[pearl stratus]

It helps that Rascal is the only Brig realistically on Haksal's overall level, and arguably better because of his other flex.

[minor flame]

But Viol2t and Moth are like the biggest contributors to Shock

[pale sail]

It's very hard to rank most teams, because there's really only 4 or 5 consistently good teams. So even comparing who they played doesn't really work.

[pearl stratus]

Yeah, I'm just looking at weak spots.

[balmy wolf]

rascal on shock was so good for shock

[pearl stratus]

Super > Bumper, Sinatraa > Seominsoo, Haksal = Rascal in most situations.

Jjanu > Choi, but only by the slightest.

[minor flame]

Shocks Support Trio is actually just amazing

The underlying carries

[pearl stratus]

I think Choi was one of the most underrated D'va coming into this season.

[balmy wolf]

rascal's experience in tough situations is what keeping shock in line

[pearl stratus]

His flex is insane too though.

Like he didn't just flex to Brig,.

he was like "Fuck it. I'll pick up Ana and Baptiste too."

[balmy wolf]

oh of course

one of the best flex dps too

[pearl stratus]

I wish anyone who played DPS had like..

0.000043582534% of the testicles that Rascal has.

So they'd bitch less and just show up and do their job.

[dreamy cave]

ok this song

pretty lit

[visual glen]

Wtf music

[vagrant niche]

what a cringe music

[pearl stratus]

Spark just have so many good parts that they need to get working just right.

[dreamy cave]

its better than the basic song for teams

[night tusk]

playoffs and still empty ..

[tawny sigil]

well the cringe part is the little thin korean kids walking out, if it was some badass fighter it wouldn't be cringe

[dreamy cave]

some ppl are poor man

[balmy wolf]

friday is gonna be better in audience turn out

[dreamy cave]

cant affort ticktes to every game

[vagrant niche]

yes it looks super empty

you can hear single people

[pearl stratus]

It's not even every game.

[grim field]

he didnt just say cruising altitude

[pearl stratus]

Who cares about semi-finals?

[night tusk]

when players come from the side than its empty

[grim field]

yeh dont film empty audience

also are they at the blizzard arena?

[pearl stratus]

Also tbf:

If I had tickets for tonight.

I would have left after Shanghai vs. Shock.

[grim field]

lol

[echo quest]

@pearl stratus how is gamsu most improved? He just got better at rein he was already one of the best Winston’s in season

1

[grim field]

gamsu threw and fed

[pale sail]

LA plays tomorrow, it'll fill up.

[night tusk]

gamsu did not peform today, alot of mistakes..

[pearl stratus]

His Rein increased dramatically, and his ball is one of the few realistically good balls in the league in the tier below Ameng.

Also Gamsu got Sado'd today.

[grim field]

k but like did you see him today?

[pearl stratus]

Yeah, but I understand goats 😛

So I realize 90% of that was Diem, not Gamsu.

Diem was really off after the first map.

[visual glen]

Profit should go Tracer and pulse the wall again

[night tusk]

the punishment from sinatraa could be avoided

[pale sail]

Gamsu was better today

[grim field]

they both underperformed

[pale sail]

Significantly less crazy Shatter attempts

[grim field]

without dding they wouldnt have done as well

also gamsu didnt do great even when they didnt run goats

[rugged yacht]

May I ask y London isn't playing against Fuel

[pearl stratus]

Because of seeding.

Fuel is against Vancouver.

[dreamy cave]

fury is at it again

[pearl stratus]

So get your Gape on.

Because Fuels butthole is going to be an echo chamber.

[rugged yacht]

3rd place should be against 6th right?

[pale sail]

London is 2nd

Best in the Atlantic, so automatic 2 seed

[rugged yacht]

they're 3rd

[pearl stratus]

No, they're 2nd.

Divisions 😛

[rugged yacht]

stage 2 they ended 3rd

[pale sail]

But they won the Atlantic division

[pearl stratus]

Divisions work, like always, in that the head of each division gets #1 and #2.

[pale sail]

So they're the 2 seed

[pearl stratus]

So they're second seed.

[rugged yacht]

I am so lost what?

[pearl stratus]

There's.. two divisions.

[night tusk]

any predictions ?

[pearl stratus]

Pacific and Atlantic.

Top of each division is #1/#2 seed respectively.

So Shock = #1 in their division, London = #1 in their division.

[pale sail]

It works like any other sports playoff system.

[pearl stratus]

So Shock -> London -> Vancouver.

[night tusk]

c9

OMG

[inland pawn]

LUL

[pale sail]

That's a C9

[pearl stratus]

London.

[vale pond]

Lul already on it

[pearl stratus]

Wouldn't be a tournament without it.

[vale pond]

If spark takes this that will be both underdogs with the first map

[pale sail]

Hopefully they can finish better than the Dragons did

first time ever i'm actually rooting for london

[vale pond]

Why lol

[night tusk]

I want to see london or NYXL win from titans.. not shock

[vale pond]

Why is that

[pearl stratus]

The two teams that realistically can't.

[night tusk]

og apex members

[vale pond]

Not gonna happen

[worn hornet]

I'm for London because I'm still mad at IDK for those Lijang boops vs my

[pearl stratus]

London's 3:3 is still very very mid level.

No where near good enough for Vancouver.

[vale pond]

Shock will kill london especially if london plays like this

[pearl stratus]

Gesture alone puts them behind.

[night tusk]

you know playoffs how london lost hard from gladiators and suddenly transformed to superheroes

[pearl stratus]

Yeah, very different meta.

There's no Profit carrying.

[night tusk]

true

[pearl stratus]

That little bowl cut can't put the team on his back and run a marathon

[night tusk]

london and seoul are one of the less teams who have a hitscan player play brig

[pearl stratus]

Eh thats because Profit + Birdring are both like everything.

[dreamy cave]

that was a bit wierd

[pearl stratus]

Same with Seoul. Seoul doesn't really run a projectile player.

Fleta is off in bechland.

[vagrant niche]

not for long when 2/2/2 hits

the dps people are coming back

[night tusk]

munchkin is a hitscan right lol

[vale pond]

2-2-2 lock will ruin the game

[pearl stratus]

Man people are no gag reflex deep throating that Slasher tweet, huh?

[supple prism]

we dont know if 2-2-2 is coming or what it will do, stop freaking out

[pearl stratus]

Look mom no hands black eye liner running

All over it.

[night tusk]

2-2-2 rather than 3 mercy mains in one game lol

[vale pond]

never happens

[supple prism]

uhh

i have had it many times

[vale pond]

I have never
