tawny sigil

WTF, 30 seconds and this could be over.

ashen sedge
#

titans just engaged good mode

karmic grotto
#

Shock might claim to win, but winning by using a strat a team doesn't scrim against because it wants to play overwatch and not cheesewatch

tawny sigil
#

vancouver look good?

#

wtf is uber saying

#

they almost lost that

frozen perch
#

now there's a slimmer of hope

velvet scarab

titans turned on good mode

I mean at this point SFS basically have 4 maps to make it work once.

@karmic grotto teams are there to win, not to play your choice of heroes

Do they play another match if Titans lose this map? They haven't been eliminated yet

wintry kraken
#

GOATS was by your definition a "cheesecomp" too

vagrant niche
#

shock is your new champion

balmy wolf

That just means the systems stopped counting, the system then realising oh i need to award this user this thing because hes over the time x and there was upwards of 250k people at one point can take time.

ok

gn?

I would hope they learned to keep the game fresh by constantly changing the meta every 2 stages or every 1 stage so that the most adaptable team will be the best team rather than one that mainly does one best and riding that train all the way to the end

Okay, so for one, you're going to have events in up to four venues happening on some weekends. That is going to require an increase in the OWL talent team for them to cast. So at a bare minimum they're going to need to increase their broadcast team size..goodd Hell, some games ters are going to be as good. Hell, some games may not even get cast.

#

Second, the timeszones are gonna be fuuuucked. A lot of season 2 occurs with games between 1am and 7am for us... it was 9am to 4pm.

3, with games being so spread, you're just not going to watch as many games. Matches will come and go and you'll just hear about the result. You won't watch most of them on catch-up, so you won't see strats etc.... if they're even interesting to watch - we don't even know what the meta is going to be yet.

have they been playing the finals in a loop?

they should play stage 3 in a loop instead

much better than whatever this is

@balmy wolf a lot

#

Many of them put in many hours before making an OWL team

thousands of scrim hours

20k not really mathetically possible

20k leaving the game open over night

lmao

#

I'm just telling you what Seagull said

#

It's probably more like 15k

tawny sigil

well that's require him to have played more than 15 hours everyday since the game came out

#

not possible

upper niche
#

Gates theory of mastery of a topic requiring approximately 10,000 hours holds true across a lot of industries. There is, similarly, very good reason that Masters degrees build generally 2 years on to an existing 4 year degree - which when treated like a full-time job equate to... well whatdya know, 10,000 hours.

@tawny sigil I think he was including his beta play time as well to be fair

even with beta

Any person who has attained 20,000 hours on the game at this point in time would surely suffer from burn-out.

you can't blame them coaches alone if a team can't play GOATS properly..

they were a disturbingly passive team

that's on coaching

you can blame coaches if a team doesnt catch up at all

so like. justice's coaches thought their players weren't capable enough to be more active?

No they were coached poorly

have you seen coreys zarya

nah, havent watched much OWL this year

limber pine

coaches have playstyles

Justice lacked coordination for a long time

limber pine

Vancouver is noticeably aggressive no matter the meta

NYXL is noticeably passive

and sfs is?

and then BAM .. nothing, since 2-2-2

yeah that was great

i was watching esl NY at the same time and it ended before esl ended

it was quick

making mistakes

@jagged crater cs:go ?

SHD were just playing the comp SHD have always played - back even before they joined OWL

jagged crater

yea

sullen berry

and stretching games towards the 3 hour mark

#

fusion could have beat shanghai

shanghai should have won map 8 against London but suddenly started making even weirder mistakes than before

with the number of C9s on both sides, no

@jagged crater cs:go is boring, tho? 😛

sullen berry

C9 from the spitfire?

hell ye

jagged crater

esl NY started an hour before at Bo5, still ended an hour later

sullen berry
#

but they didn't have that clutch factor that spitfire desperately wanted

idle beacon
#

well csgo is slow

jagged crater
#

i havent played csgo in over a year, but i still watch csgo. Something about watching high level CSGO is still entertaining

#

to me

idle beacon
#

sometimes yea

jagged crater
#

personally still think csgo is amazing to spectate

#

in terms of pacing, it's excellent

#

there's a slow setup period, every player has potential to clutch

idle beacon
#

i remember watching niko doing a spree with a d.eagle once.that was freakin ace

#

but back to OWL 😄

#

so what can we expect for next years season?

jagged crater
#

more burnout

#

i cant see a team with less than 12 players

#

you're gonna need subs with that much traveling

idle beacon
#

come on

#

csgo pro's can do it

#

LoL pros can

#

so whynot ow pros

jagged crater
#

aint the same game

#

OW's burnout rate is incredibly high compared to other games

idle beacon
#

r u saying the concentration level is higher than with csgo players?

jagged crater
#

no

#

im saying the demands are different

idle beacon
#

hm ok

jagged crater
#

Overwatch has many different maps, heroes, metas to consider

idle beacon
#

csgo has alot of stuff to pay attention about, aswell

jagged crater
#

in terms of practice it's simpler

idle beacon
#

those insane timed smokes , flashes

jagged crater
#

because CSGO does not change often

#

CSGO has many maps, but the gameplay remains unchanged for the most part. Very minor tweaks here and there

#

OW changes gameplay very often and can shift metas ever month or so

idle beacon
#

ye true

jagged crater
#

while having tons of maps

#

League and Dota have one map

idle beacon
#

now i get what you're pointin at

jagged crater
#

each OWL stage can have 12 different maps, the next month 8 different maps

#

CSGO is like 5 main maps for several months, then rotates ONE map for big tournaments

idle beacon
#

rly?

jagged crater
#

so Overwatch has a constantly changing map pool AND hero meta

#

it's an insane amount of things to prepare for

idle beacon
#

i thought csgo teams decide whatever map they want

jagged crater
#

yes but valve sometimes take a map out of the pool

#

to rework it

idle beacon
#

but yea, ur right .. ow does take alot of time, considering the playstyle changes every 1-2 months

jagged crater
#

if you look at history of CS, there's only very few maps being played constantly

#

on top of gameplay barely changing

idle beacon

Who else is happy that the SanFranciscoShock won? I thought that the match was excellent but I was hoping for a closer match

i am happy

im happy sf won but the match was pretty disappointing in terms of competitiveness

it was just a stomp

i like the sfs team, except for the dumb kid named super

#

ye, the match wasn't so entertaining 😄

He just like DIDNT PLAY

#

allthough

#

anubis was a lil intense

#

vanc almost fullheld sfs on point a

jagged crater
#

super didnt play stage 4-playoffs but still gotta give him some props for stage 1-3

acoustic terrace
#

Lijiang Tower was a full-on STOMP 2-0

#

beemoo I agree

idle beacon
#

i've seen reign popped off .. havent seen a match, tho

#

AND .. i wanted to watch nyxl vs vanc

#

and missed it

jagged crater
#

this is another thing i dont like about OW. You can have great starting players from previous metas become irrelevant the next

idle beacon
#

seems it was damn close?

#

well there can't be tons of liberos out there 😄

jagged crater
#

just out of control of the player

#

just unfortunate timing of balance changes

idle beacon
#

fissure did spoil it early enough

acoustic terrace
#

I think that it was kinda close but the map wins were Shock 100%

jagged crater
#

and also applies to teams as well

#

vancouver was absolutely stomping for a while

#

but this meta is clearly not their best

acoustic terrace
#

Then Stage 4 came around...

idle beacon
#

back to the roots .. 2-2-2

jagged crater
#

so ive seen a lot of people write off vancouver's accomplishments because they got stomped this grand final
