they are so fucking good

balmy wolf
#

@balmy wolf they never will if they dont stop choking in playoffs šŸ˜„

tawny sigil
#

watching SHD dismentle 3-3 teams was great

vagrant niche
#

mang i wanted a close series

#

not a stomp

#

i'm dissapointed

#

please don't let the finals be the same thing as last year

tawny sigil
#

that's what the losing bracket was... stomps all the way

balmy wolf
#

imagine thinking this game was nyxl choking lmfao

#

theyā€™re just worse than shock

spark glacier
#

GG EZ NYXL

balmy wolf
#

idk how shock 4-0 three teams in 3 days

mental stump
#

Shock is gonna clap those cheeks

spark glacier
#

True True

balmy wolf
#

ZaryaLUL @balmy wolf nyxl has always been chocking in playoffs so this was pretty much expected

#

only have like 12 hrs to prep for the next match once one is over

hidden osprey
vagrant niche
#

Who is that?

#

on the logo?

balmy wolf
#

i donā€™t think itā€™s choking at all i think they played the best they could

#

choking would be like when they lost to seoul in the beginning of the season

#

they won multiple games this time and stayed in the winners bracket until the very end

tawny sigil
#

this was a close match between 2 good team... was side show watching league of legend?

balmy wolf
#

Anubis was the best map of the series

#

Definition of overcoming the odds

trim shadow
balmy wolf
#

I like how for shock rialto is the one map that always pushes them down and they get back up

#

@trim shadow how it actually will be: a 4:0 stomp

trim shadow
#

See

#

Vancouver beat sfs in stage 1

#

Made it super close stage 2

#

And took em to the wire

#

In 222

#

In la homestand

#

New york had

#

24 hours to prepare for san fran

queen drift
#

not really

trim shadow
#

No one can prepare for san fran in 24 houes

queen drift
#

most teams focus in the playoffs will all go twards san fran / van

#

obv they'll prepare for games they have

trim shadow
#

Said no one

queen drift
#

said me

#

if you think teams arent mainly prepping for sfs/van going into playoffs you're deluded

balmy wolf
#

I mean ya, but then you get teams like atl who think they need no game plan against spark

#

then got 4-0

queen drift
#

yeah but that might have happened with all their prep going to hzs or not

#

you never know

balmy wolf
#

Also with shock winning this game, shock has beat every single team in the league

#

Titans need to beat justice to beat the entire league

queen drift
#

what teams havent they beat 4-0

balmy wolf
#

well not 4-0

#

just beat

queen drift
#

and titans beating justice will be hard in 222, never thought id say that

#

no i know

#

im saying

#

what teams left do they need to 4-0

balmy wolf
#

shock needs to 4-0 titans and ..... I think thats it

queen drift
#

jesus

balmy wolf
#

wait

queen drift
balmy wolf
#

ok they need to 4-0 glads, outlaws, reign

#

and titans

queen drift
#

paris?

#

i only see a 3:1

balmy wolf
#

that too

#

Is there a specific bonus for VAN during the final because of the winner bracket?

#

Canā€™t find anything

#

no

#

you just play less games

#

K thanks

#

I mean the winning team get's 1.1M dollars

#

second place I think is less than half of that

#

650k

tropic herald
#

Wow

#

Shock didnā€™t drop a map since ATL

#

I think Shock is gonna take Grand Finals

balmy wolf
#

london spitfire again

balmy wolf
#

1 week to grand finals, here's 5 ways London can still win! (You won't believe #7)

rapid bobcat
#

After their defeat at the hands of Atlanta Reign, Shock has 4-0'd every team.

balmy wolf
#

every game in the loser brackets averages out at around 2 hrs for shock

round storm
#

Any guess on what blizz is going to use the arena that they spent millions on for now?

#

They also just put like 200 people / owl staff out of a job

balmy wolf
#

they didnt

#

they were leasing the place

round storm
#

Really? I figured they would have bought it. Going to be a pain in the rear end to get all of that crap out. Did you see the timelapse of the setup?

balmy wolf
#

Every game next year is gonna be a homestand

#

Blizzard will just bring the necessary equipment and staff.

round storm
#

hmmm. Intresting

#

So they going to have a traveling owl staff team'

tropic herald
#

They rented a studio it wasnā€™t actually a stadium

#

I assume that a caster duo will be at the stadiums and the analysts idk honestly

rare magnet
#

how can there be 4 4-0's in the season playoffs

vale pond
#

@rich patio

#

Wait shit thats a person

#

Sorry mate

forest raven
#

@rare magnet Because Shock is a tier above London, Glads, Spark, and New York

balmy wolf
#

imagine shock 4-0ā€™s vancouver

#

i mean they 4-0d new york and they went 4-3 with vancouver

forest raven
#

That would easily cement shock as the best team in the world, without a shadow of a doubt

balmy wolf
#

i genuinely believe they are already

forest raven
#

Transitive property doesn't apply here

#

Shock at their strongest, Vancouver still picked up 2 maps

balmy wolf
#

ikik i canā€™t really predict this one

#

but still

#

it would be crazy

forest raven
#

If Shock pulled that off it would be Liquid's run in TI7 all over again

balmy wolf
#

if shock do win this

#

Then we could probs say they are the best OW team to ever exist alongside titans

#

Even teams like Lunatic Hai were never this dominant, even when they won apex titles.

worn falcon
#

But hey, on the other side if titans wins you gonna get people complaining about koreans winning games

balmy wolf
#

I mean that argument is pretty weak since shock is a majority korean roster

worn falcon
#

I know, i just was annoyed by those rants when London won Season 1

balmy wolf
#

I mean by all metrics season 1 london was damn scary in the 1st two stages

#

then dipped off hard

#

They were still apex winners who were the best dive team alongside NY, but excel better at double sniper when it matter

upper niche
#

I reckon Schock will do it.

hidden vault
#

How do you think the titians will hold up?

#

4-0?

balmy wolf
#

probs not

#

shock vs titans is never a sweep

upper niche
#

I predict it'll be SFS d VAN 4-3 in 8 matches (1 draw)

uneven wren
#

i wouldn't predict any drawn maps seeing both teams have never drawn a map this season

#

though a drawn map would be wild to see

balmy wolf
#

draws are pretty rare these days

upper niche
#

There's a first time for everything.

gray crystal
#

I think the Grand finals between Shock and titans will go either way

#

Personally im going for Vancouver since im Canadian lmao even though they are all Koreans

limpid estuary
#

When do we find out about the half-time performance for Grand Finals?

#

There was speculation that they would air a short during that space.

gray crystal
#

oh shit they are gonna have a performance at halftime

#

thats awesome

balmy wolf
#

Isn't that Zedd?

forest raven
#

Yeah Zedd's performing at the finals

if it's anything like last year, it's gonna be great

4-3 VAN

#

RUNAWAY FIGHTING

oak heath
#

stitch is the hope

#

maybe

upper hawk
#

van is gonna have to be ready for the super aggressiveness

#

SF just squad roles over points as fast a possible

#

dont even give teams a chance to think about whats happening before sinatraa puts the doomfist in their bum

tranquil berry
#

Here's hoping for the best for Vancouver. Shock isn't going to be easy.

hidden vault
#

van is really aggressive too

glad aspen
#

Damn Shock might actually win

#

They 4-0ed NYXL. Vancouver 4-3ed them

uneven wren
#

nyxl isn't vancouver though

#

one team doesn't correlate to another

#

ex: atlanta beating sf but losing to nyxl and getting 4-0ed by hz

#

different teams different strategies

#

atlanta beat sf 4-3, lose to nyxl 4-2 and sf beats nyxl 4-0

#

also 2 week prep

#

who knows what each team has after 2 weeks

minor flame
#

Its either Shock wins one sided

#

Or close match

When is the next match?

who the fuck is zedd... saying that unironically

#

is that what most OWL fan also thought or just me

gaunt acorn
#

popular DJ

balmy wolf
#

heā€™s actually a really big DJ iā€™m surprised you donā€™t know him

#

makes a lot of pop hits

upper niche
#

WTF, people having not heard of Zedd?

tawny sigil
#

people that dont use a FM radio in 2019

upper niche
#

or 2017

tawny sigil
#

at least dj khaled was a meme

#

i've never understood dj being popular... they dont even compose

hidden vault
#

Djs are popular for club goers

#

I would assume most players (would stay at home and play games) and not go out for clubs

#

Dj refers to the dance floor dj btw

#

Like lucio

#

Not those in fm radios

#

I assume they would wanted zedd to hype up everyone and dance(?)

#

I think I heard of zedd but I don't really know him either

balmy wolf
#

Just take a listen to most of old sounds tracks

#

baiscally every song you probs heard of but never recognize

karmic grotto
#

You know when people call Haksal toxic

#

He has every right to be like that

#

Dude's a monster on Genji as seeing reverse video of him

#

Derrek said like Haksal uses dash as Tracer blinks

hidden vault
#

There's no reason to be toxic

#

No matter how good you are

karmic grotto
#

It's kinda the same as you know, Ronaldo

#

How people viewed him in the past

#

But he was on of the best players

#

Nothing you can do do, but you're right

#

No need to be toxic

sullen berry
#

what do you guys want for next year, rick astley or something

#

not knowing zedd is wack if you've heard of dj khaled

#

if it's just not to everyone's taste, I wonder what is

#

most gamer-centric DJs is what they're going for since they aren't as expensive as say, pitbull

sterile fox
#

oh hey

#

so whatā€™s the thing with zedd

#

is he gonna put up a show or something?

sullen berry
#

as part of the preshow during the grand finals

#

since it's going to be a one day affair, they bring hype to the crowd

#

at least Zedd is familiar with overwatch

minor flame
#

If we get lucky

#

Zedd will 1v1 Bren on widow

sterile fox
#

more like on lucio

echo quest
#

@karmic grotto being a pro gives you know right to be toxic

karmic grotto
#

H

#

of course

#

what would I believe what @hidden vault said

karmic grotto
#

@echo quest there's something I don't understand about pros, maybe you can tell

#

Let's say Haksal goes 1v1 vs Mccree

#

with Genji

#

And someone else goes against the same Mccree, but that person is Genji too

#

They are in the same position, use the same combo

#

What makes Haksal win the 1v1, but that other Genji not?

I expect him to be picked up quickly if LAG let him go

forest raven

No more shouldergates

hidden vault
#

why did glads let him go tho

#

he did pretty well didn't he?

limber pine
#

LAG hasn't let him go; just allowed him to look for other opportunities.

karmic grotto

I'm wondering if Dallas Fuel will let go of Aero

so why is he looking for other opportunities

the popular opinion is pay

dpei looking for other opportunities cause of the pay

tawny sigil

what a boring ass end of season, holy shit

remove stage 1 2 4 and the final

#

Hmm

#

Gauntlet will be something interesting

#

But who will be the main tank of ATL Academy?

red anvil
#

I wouldn't be surprised if he plays in the gauntlet regardless of technically not being qualified

limber pine
#

I thought heā€™s technically qualified

red anvil
#

@limber pine two way players can only play 2 games in a stage, if they play 3 or more they are ineligible to compete in contenders.

But there are a lot of possible loopholes here ...

limber pine
#

I think there's technicalities because the gauntlet is after OWL

#

and other stuff

oak heath
#

no expansion teams for owl?

#

gauntlet is going to attract team owners too

#

might possibly acquire an entire roster or something

limber pine
#

They said a while ago that Season 3 wouldn't have new teams cuz there's too much going on with localization.

#

I don't think we're gonna see full roster's picked up though

oak heath
#

individual pickup tho

#

runaway is pretty packed

limber pine
#

oh yeah definately

#

I meant full rosters picked up as full rosters

oak heath
#

and btw titans lost to sfs during rivalry weekend

#

would we expect the same result during grand finals?

limber pine
#

different meta

analog lark
#

Shock looks to dominate in this meta

#

After losing to Reign in upper bracket, they proceed to 4-0 everyone in lower bracket

hidden vault
#

well Titians is not in the loser bracket

#

could be an exception

analog lark
#

True

#

Though it seems that Vancouvers games were much closer with NYXL and LAG, which SFS just demolished

#

I see shock winning

balmy wolf
#

SFS will win. No doubt. But in a much tied game. A final is a final. And Vancouver is used to play some.

red anvil
jagged crater
#

how did reign send shock to losers

#

did shock do some insane adjustment afterwards

balmy wolf
#

shock c9 the cart on rialto

#

shock then adjusted to the meta pretty damn fast

#

Hey sisters

jagged crater

we're all sisters now

tropic herald

Losing a series that close and in such an embarrassing fashion really set the Shock on fire

cunning iris

gold dps cries for double sheilds then uses neither sheild :/

cunning iris
#

whats good dmg amped on mercy. ppl say to blue beam all time but wen i do its like 700 dmg amped

balmy wolf
#

I mean mercy ult charge from damage amp got nerfed a long time ago.

#

Mercy is there to enable the team to build their ults faster

#

Her own kinda just builds naturally

hidden vault
#

Well if you wanna talk about gold players

#

There is the competitive chat

karmic grotto
#

Somebody made a thread in Comp sub about SK vs Runaway showdown match

#

Is this true? I'm waiting for source

red anvil
#

He says in the thread that it's Lime that's stated it

#

So yes there is a reliable source

#

Lime is scout for GenG/Seoul Dynasty and social media for Team SK

karmic grotto
#

I see

#

Alright

#

Interesting

echo quest
#

Runaway gonna win. Which means SK will win the WC

They look like theyā€™ve been pushing the pedal and the past shows they donā€™t let up until itā€™s over

Until the meta changes :) in season 3

We gonna get at least 2 new heroes by that time

#

And a new map

#

Oh boi

Pls, let the map be hybrid or escort

Payload map, here we gooo

Or a completely new map mode

But I'm not sure what

#

Overwatch 2 becomes a new eSports title from Blizzard

#

Yet I'm waiting for the beta of it since I have signed myself for it

echo quest
#

OW 2 is most likely gonna be story based

fiery basalt
#

Maybe ow 2 could played in all stars when it releases? Like if it would be similar to archives then both the Atlantic and Pacific teams would create teams of 4 and the one that got a bigger score would win

#

I don't know just a dumb idea

hah.

tawny sigil
#

any words on who is casting the final?

upper niche
#

I got a bad feeling it's gonna be Wolf and Achilios, but surely the fan favorites would have to be Uber/MrX?

#

But Monte/Doa have clout though and there's no COI concern this year...

sullen berry
#

That leaves only one team to present this year's Overwatch League Grand Finals...

#

And to be fair, what if we get two casting duos - one for the mainstream broadcast and another on Twitch like they did for Atlanta Homestand?

upper niche
#

I had no idea they did that.

#

Did they have a different team for DisneyXD/ESPN?

#

Also, so @sullen berry are you saying it's gonna be Semmeler/Hex? šŸ˜„

balmy wolf
#

Its been confirmed already that its uber and x

upper niche
#

'confirmed' - source? Even Mitch wouldn't confirm it when I asked him.

#

neither would Sideshow.

#

Are you confusing that with his recent tweets talking about one of the collegiate Grand Finals that the Uber/MrX team are casting?

queen drift
#

UberX are the only casting team I donā€™t mute in favour of avast stream

hidden vault
#

Why do they need 2 different casters for 2 different broadcast again?

sullen berry
#

They just went with it, no other reason they need beyond that

#

Just imagine all the casters who attend the Homestand just there for the crowd, but you got to work as well for the different broadcast

karmic grotto

There's one thing that will make me happy during blizzcon

#

In-game Livestreaming client

#

Lightyears better than Twitch

hidden vault
#

The trend in overwatch has been to fire coaches when the team doesn't do well

#

Is it really the coach's issue?

plucky rune
#

player performance is pretty consistent across the board, with some players being better or worse than others, of course

#

when everyone is at about the same level, the macrogame matters a whole lot more

#

coaches, for the most part, are the people handling that aspect of the game

#

they manage things like strategies and team compositions, doing all of that theorycrafting

#

the people actually applying that theory are good enough to follow it to a tee, if need be

#

so chances are, the problems stem from the theory side of the equation

i imagine sbb and pine staying but maybe libero wants out?

unless one of them is being traded

Maybe nyxl just wants a monopoly on good players

#

imagine this crew plus carpe last year

#

they would have won every stage no doubt.

balmy wolf
#

I wouldn't really like or care for that

#

Cause the starting 6 would still be consistent with I guess carpe in instead of Flower or Nenne

Cause I can't imagine you trading libero out

If they wanted a pick up I'd say something in the off tank category. Fury would be phenomenal

Nyxl wasn't great this year and they have enough dps

So has london

But BlueHas to london would be nice tho

balmy wolf
#

I mean, NY has been top 3 in record the entire season, even if they did look sloppy in stage 4. Their playoff performances were nothing to scoff at.

#

Just unfortunate to lose against titans and then face shock.

#

@red anvil at the same time your word doesnt hold any value. We'll just need to wait and see

#

For all we know most can be true. But there are interchangable moves going around

red anvil
#

Yes because you definitely want to listen to someone who have been proven to speak nonsense before

worldly cove
#

Is that his track-record? Did these theories arise from information gathered from himself or other korean persons?

#

Because there are plenty of trusted individuals who tossed conspiracies at times @red anvil

#

i would give the benefit ofthe doubt and say there are chances of a few of these working out. they arent that far-fetched stuff

Hah, the OWL website redirects me to /en-au, which is completely broken and returns nothing.

tribal harbor
#

Are they making their own stadiums around the U.S or am I just on something

#

For the OWL teams

tulip ridge
#

I think they're going to borrow stadiums for a few days rather than create stadiums because creating and maintaining one is not worth it for any team.

tropic herald
#

They can borrow or create their stadium

tribal harbor
#

Ight thatā€™s what I thought

trim shadow
#

everyones borrowing stadiums for a season

#

hopefully by 2021 everyone would be set

#

as for expansions in s4 not a single clue

#

i think guangzhou is inheriting a stadium since there org owns a basketball team

sullen berry
#

guangzhou's main investor is nenking

#

they make heaps on all sorts of companies under them

#

amongst them is real estate
they brought all the players over to their basketball facilities for bootcamp

#

taking one of the most iconic esports stage in Foshan

#

then hosting on their own facility in Tianhe

what im asking is- i want to know more about the esports scene. anyone i can watch or ^^'

im still too young and not skilled enough to actually be part of a team

The age normally doesnt matter

Most teams accept a wide variety of aged players

#

Good PC is a myth. You're either good or you're not

#

People, like Space/Super, hit T500 with sub 30 FPS

#

Jake hit T500 on a partitioned macbook.

#

A special mouse, or top end PC, won't make your game decisions not garbage, your aim better, or your positioning not shit.

low mirage
#

A good PC just helps you run a game and see things better. Not necessary. Just nice to have

pearl stratus
#

You actually want to see things worse in OW, ironically.

#

If you look at pro settings they're all the lowest they can be.

#

Because super low settings in OW cause some objects, which normally obstruct vision, to not be rendered. I.E. The drapes in Shrine, etc.

#

The good PC is for high consistent FPS, but you dumpster your actual quality.

drifting yarrow
#

I'm not sure about what is happening

balmy wolf
#

Some people are just outliers; EQO was the same way but that doesn't mean good hardware won't increase performance. I was running a crappy laptop with low frames and high ping and clawed my way to plat

#

then built my own PC and immediately skyrocketed into high diamond low master ranger where I am chilling for the most part

I'm pretty sure the consensus is that that you at least need a reliable comp (then you could set whatever settings you think it's the optimum)

@supple plinth yes (-8min)

Nice thanks bro you the best šŸ‘

I would say that Shock has the advantage coming into it

#

winning the last two matchups

#

16-0 streak

#

they are on fire

sturdy river

plus van is the only team i actually dislike

night tusk
#

i dont mind who wins. they both deserve it and they both have a good season

feral wing
#

shock better storyline

#

shock win

sturdy river
#

plus if outlaws beat shock and shock beat titans than outlaws > titans

night tusk
#

also great to have those 2. not one who we might say "well they kinda will get rekt" team

feral wing
#

yeah

#

philly vs london last season was

#

both teams were on fire

#

but london were an explosion

night tusk
#

also if somehow spark or someone would play vs shock or titans we kinda could predict for sure. but those two are both strong the full season

feral wing
#

philly had the best shot at taking down London, but they still lost

night tusk
#

london prepared really well for last meta last season

feral wing
#

yeah

#

still dont know what happened between match 1 and 2 against glads tho

#

they went from getting swept 3-0 to sweeping 6-0

night tusk
#

london already packed their backs to go home

feral wing
#

and after that they just barely lost a map or two

night tusk
#

but after all they won xd

if London hadnt caught fire at that point then we wouldve had philly season 1 champions pepehands

as a philly fan

that wouldve been great

dont know what their skin would have been though

they believed it was already lost so they went playing their way and that did work out I guess
