feral zodiac

vagrant jacinth

Yesss

feral zodiac

Charge are underrated by a lot of people to be fair

rare magnet

Yep

karmic grotto
#

wtf

vagrant jacinth
#

Wow they held

karmic grotto
#

HOE

feral zodiac

Charge might actually be a contender with Shock and Shanghai

vagrant jacinth
#

Holy shit eileen

karmic grotto
#

#

diem unlooki

vagrant jacinth
#

Fleta blade coming online tho

severe tusk
#

feral zodiac
#

Fletaaaaaa

#

Voiiiiidddddd

vagrant jacinth
#

Thought that'd happen

severe tusk
#

is it really shanghai if there aren't some reeeal clutch moments

feral zodiac
#

Eileen blade coming up

#

Literally fleta vs Eileen ZaryaLUL

severe tusk
#

eileeeeen

vagrant jacinth
#

C'mon one last hold

severe tusk
#

why was happy all the way back there

feral zodiac
#

These overtime battles aren't good for my heart

sullen berry
#

one last ride

vagrant jacinth
#

Ah fuck

severe tusk
#

big fleta blade

karmic grotto
#

xd

severe tusk
#

lmaooo @feral zodiac have you seen NYXL clutch contests

#

where they rotate tanks on the payload when its 1m away

feral zodiac
#

Those are the reason I'm going to die early ZenyattaCry

#

Literally the entire round is decided by who gets blade first

karmic grotto
#

xD

severe tusk
#

dont think shd can clutch this one

karmic grotto
#

happy be like

#

back line

severe tusk
#

happy been playin too much ana

#

trying to heal shanghai

rare magnet
#

gee i wonder who will win this seems so even

severe tusk
#

that sounded sarcastic

feral zodiac
#

The gee makes that seem sarcastic

severe tusk
#

was it sarcastic? because it looks pretty even to me

feral zodiac
severe tusk
#

5head nope

#

why is crong

#

literally behind shd

rare magnet
#

well charge seems pretty good

feral zodiac
#

They are

#

Not sure who is really slacking on Shanghai though

severe tusk
#

eileen is outperforming fleta imo

feral zodiac
#

Oh jeez

#

Diem

severe tusk
#

and i'd say that happy vs diem is even or more in happy's favour

feral zodiac
#

Yeah eileen is dominating

tropic herald
#

It’s okay Diem is still cracked

feral zodiac
#

Eileen??????

severe tusk
#

lol both these teams are so stacked

#

are you behind or ahead of me nope lmao

vagrant jacinth
#

Damn

severe tusk
#

ah ahead of me i see

feral zodiac
#

I think I'm ahead

vagrant jacinth
#

Wow

severe tusk
#

ok diem has walls

rare magnet
#

actually dragons are waking up

vagrant jacinth
#

They really like showing replays over team fights

dreamy cave
#

diem hacking

#

no way u hit what u absolutely cant see

feral zodiac
#

Shanghai need the blade

#

Maybe

severe tusk
#

he probably knew happy's location beforehand

feral zodiac
#

Damn

severe tusk
#

ooo diem barely survived

feral zodiac
#

This is a really tight game

severe tusk
#

FLETAAA

vagrant jacinth
#

Oh my god

#

My heart

severe tusk
#

oh geez

true hound
#

Damn

#

That was close af

severe tusk
#

2-0 gz

#

this is close

ebon aurora
#

wow these maps are close

vagrant jacinth
feral zodiac
#

This is where shanghai start to shine

ebon aurora
#

what a series so far

upper niche
#

WTF is wrong with SHD when it comes to finals?

tropic herald
#

Shanghai has nerves

ebon aurora
#

Is Lip not better than Diem?

tropic herald
#

Did you just watch Diems widow

feral zodiac
#

Diem over lip on widow

balmy wolf
#

@ebon aurora still underestimating charge? xd

feral zodiac
#

By far

severe tusk
#

lip isn't as good at sniper

tropic herald
#

There’s a reason you’d play Diem if you’re going to play widow

ebon aurora
#

I never underestimated Charge @balmy wolf but imo Shanghai are slightly better

severe tusk
#

no, i reckon that it'll be close for the rest of the match

vagrant jacinth
#

Happy didn't look as good on that map

ebon aurora
#

Charge are a sick team though

feral zodiac
#

We're watching the two best apac widows go head to head

severe tusk
#

i dont think shd are going to outperform charge by a decent margin

vagrant jacinth
#

Diem looked miles better

balmy wolf
#

ok but told you theyll win 😄

clear crane
#

Whew I’m about to catch the 2nd half of this game

feral zodiac
#

And two of the best tank lines in the world

ebon aurora
#

What's Diem like on Ashe

feral zodiac
#

And two of the best genjis

severe tusk
#

lip ashe > diem ashe imo

clear crane
#

Damn charge up 2!?

ebon aurora
#

^

vagrant jacinth
#

Yup

ebon aurora
#

but Diem widow > Lip widow

severe tusk
#

but i mean, you bring in lip on like

#

gibraltar

#

where you can play that sombra ashe

feral zodiac
#

The scoreline doesn't represent how close it's been

ebon aurora
#

not at all

severe tusk
#

not hollywood, a widow ashe map

ebon aurora
#

Ilios was 100-99 on both points

feral zodiac
#

Like it could be 1-1 2-0 0-2

ebon aurora
#

and Charge just pushed in OT

#

this could be any score so far

severe tusk
#

it's just come down to a few key fights which went in the way of the charge

feral zodiac
#

Charge are dominating in the ultimate usage though

keen warren
#

@forest raven we gonna charge you for that 4-0

feral zodiac
#

They're getting their ults far quicker

forest raven
grizzled badger
#

Shanghai

severe tusk
#
  • getting blade far quicker ;)
grizzled badger
#

going 0-3 down in the May Melee was fun and all

#

but pls dont pull this shit again

sullen berry
#

@forest raven It's literally crunch time

tropic herald
#

This could’ve been 1-1 or 2-0 Shanghai it’s just little things putting Guangzhou ahead

sullen berry
#

hoping for a 4-2 now?

feral zodiac
#

It's the ults

severe tusk
#

but when shd went down 3-0, it wasn't even close for shd

vagrant jacinth
#

Yeah score could easily be 1-1 0-2

feral zodiac
#

charge have their ults online for every last fight

grizzled badger
#

Shanghai pls

severe tusk
#

this is different, the maps are all so close

feral zodiac
#

Shanghai don't

severe tusk
#

i dont think its just shd sleeping, i reckon charge are just playing incredibly well

vagrant jacinth
#

They're managing ults nicely, apart from maybe one or two Eileen blades

feral zodiac
#

Eileen is building blade far faster than fleta

tropic herald
#

I think if Shanghai have one good map they will grab the momentum of the series but rn Guangzhou are controlling

feral zodiac
#

Void and cr0ng have been really even

severe tusk
#

most roles are even except eileen vs fleta i think

#

the other differences i think are just because of fight status based on those blades

feral zodiac
#

Fights are being largely decided by the genjis and the sigmas

vagrant jacinth
#

Very much so

shut arrow
#

3 - 4 Dragons...

#

please....

#

maybe...

feral zodiac
#

Not a bad game from fleta either but Eileen is cracked

severe tusk
#

anubis

#

interesting map pick

#

given the genji diff

feral zodiac
#

Diem going to pop this map

severe tusk
#

🤞

feral zodiac
#

Fleta seems frustrated with the blades though WinstonThink

#

As though he feels like he should already have it

#

When he's on 80ish %

severe tusk
#

are they running fleta on mei..?

#

ok nvm

#

oh diemmm

feral zodiac
#

Told you

severe tusk
#

jesus how does crong have flux already

feral zodiac
#

Not anymore lol

severe tusk
#

diemm again hahaha

feral zodiac
#

Oh shit happy

#

Cr00000ng

severe tusk
#

happy hahaa

vagrant jacinth
#

Isn't looking too good for charge

#

Holy fuck crong

balmy wolf
#

is this a final? semi-final?

feral zodiac
#

How far behind are you lol

#

Final

severe tusk
#

final zano

#

you might be behind a little hari haha

#

i think gz have a chance now that happy can try match diem

feral zodiac
#

Jesus charge really pulling their weight

severe tusk
#

lmao diem and happy playing a friendly round of widow hs

karmic grotto
#

xD

feral zodiac
#

Literally the one flux from cr0ng has completely changed the round

vagrant jacinth
#

Fleta and Eileen blades

balmy wolf
#

cr0ng MVP

feral zodiac
#

Fleta is being outclassed

balmy wolf
#

lets get a Sigma MVP skin

vagrant jacinth
#

Oh shid am I lmao

severe tusk
#

fleta and void being outplayed

feral zodiac
#

Legit just stop running the genji Shanghai

severe tusk
#

tbh i think the current meta better suits gz than shd

balmy wolf
#

THE STUN

feral zodiac
#

Fucking balls

karmic grotto
#

nruh

#

fleta was literllay

vagrant jacinth
#

Shanghai being outclassed

karmic grotto
#

340 HP

sleek tapir
#

nutty sig

karmic grotto
#

340 HP and he didn't blade

balmy wolf
#

cr0ng needs a chiropractor

tropic herald
#

Ngl some of the players on charge that felt underwhelming don’t feel underwhelming anymore

vagrant jacinth
#

Fleta is too careful with blades

severe tusk
#

i can't think of a member of charge who seem underwhelming atm

#

shu is one of the best baptistes and anas in the league imo, chara and rio are consistent, and crong/happy/eileen are carries

feral zodiac
#

Charge to beat shock when normal owl comes back?

#

Imagine the pacific lineup for all stars

severe tusk
#

but chipsa

feral zodiac
#

That's gonna be such a stacked team

balmy wolf
#

just bought Charge sigma skin

severe tusk
#

hmm but what about choi

feral zodiac
#

(Choi = cr0ng) > void

severe tusk
#

yea i reckon

tropic herald
#

Guangzhou are so behind on rally

feral zodiac
#

Fucking hell

#

Happy dominating diem

vagrant jacinth
#

OOH

balmy wolf
severe tusk
#

i reckon bernar has potential tho

forest raven
#

I think after the brig nerf where genji won't be as powerful shock will go right back to dominating with ease

vagrant jacinth
#

Fleta running for his life

tropic herald
#

Okay well now that rally doesn’t matter Bc Shanghai wasted theirs

severe tusk
#

i think as soon as genji is out of the meta shd will also start to come back

sleek tapir
#

Fleta and happy just vibin in the back

severe tusk
#

especially if winston is more common (fearless winston!)

#

FLETAAAAaa

fickle flicker
#

yes fleta HYPERCLAP

feral zodiac
#

Do shanghai actually want to win?

tropic herald
#

4 ults for Guangzhou

balmy wolf
#

"walk forward with their hands off the mouse"

fickle flicker
#

just got back, how is diem doing?

severe tusk
#

being outplayed by happy i think

feral zodiac
#

Shit

vagrant jacinth
#

The stun

severe tusk
#

jesus charge

feral zodiac
#

He did well first half of first round

#

But charge

severe tusk
#

they didn’t even try

vagrant jacinth
#

Let's gooooo

forest raven
#

Charge PauseChamp

feral zodiac
#

Charge have seriously turned up

sleek tapir
#

my god

karmic grotto
clear crane
#

holy hellll

tropic herald
#

Shanghai on match point

vagrant jacinth
#

This is beautiful

tropic herald
#

I’ve seen this one before

fickle flicker
#

3 - 0 puppHmm

#

shanghai wyd

ebon aurora
#

Shanghai 3-0 down, we know what happens next

balmy wolf
forest raven
#

Time to sub in lip and reverse sweep

karmic grotto
#

@tropic herald yeah

#

last time

balmy wolf
#

get ready for a pause

karmic grotto
#

But as I see it

fickle flicker
#

yess lip in for reverse sweep pls

vagrant jacinth
#

No lip no win ZaryaLUL

tropic herald
#

Shanghai just giving charge hope

karmic grotto
#

Dragons won't reverse sweep

tropic herald
#

That’s all it is

keen warren
feral zodiac
#

If dragons actually turn up

#

They sweep

weak bolt
#

SHD won't reverse sweep this now. They aren't the best team in a Genji/Widow meta imo.

forest raven
#

Agree

feral zodiac
#

But they're sleeping

fickle flicker
#

dragons reverse swept seoul the other week, we have hope

balmy wolf
#

Keep telling yourself that, empathy

tropic herald
#

Wasn’t the meta DS last time and Dragons just said fuck it and forced dive

feral zodiac
#

Or fleta isn't anywhere near as good as I thought he was

grizzled badger
#

god dammit

severe tusk
#

shd might be able to win one map, but this looks over for shanghai

grizzled badger
#

here we go again

feral zodiac
#

True empathy ZaryaLUL

grizzled badger
#

REVERSE SWEEP 2

forest raven
#

I think it's some unfortunate timing with the meta for shanghai rn

feral zodiac
#

Gibraltar

grizzled badger
#

ELECTRIC BOOGALOO

feral zodiac
#

Fearless on winston

#

Shanghai win

severe tusk
#

genji, widow and sigma are exactly charge's strong points

fickle flicker
sullen berry
weak bolt
#

I think SHD and Shock are pretty similar at the moment. Great at most metas, but not the best at this one.

grizzled badger
#

thats cursed

feral zodiac
#

Fixing confirmed

severe tusk
#

who woulda thought that genji would be meta

feral zodiac
#

So charge legit have a contention for best team in the league with this meta

weak bolt
#

He may not be meta next week when the Brig changes go in

tropic herald
#

I did when they gave him a giant buff then no compensating nerfs

severe tusk
#

in this meta, i reckon charge would sweep shock

#

yeah, with brig changes i can see shd winning this

forest raven
#

Genji is like one of the only heroes shock doesn't have a true world class player for

#

Unluckers

ebon aurora
#

Rascal?

#

hello

feral zodiac
#

There are better owl genjis than rascal

tropic herald
#

And that’s why they played him on Genji yesterday

severe tusk
#

rascal isn't on fleta/eileen/haksal's level imo

tropic herald
#

Right

true hound
#

there are good genji players

#

And there is Haksal and whoru

feral zodiac
#

Zalty sleeping on eileen

weak bolt
#

Rascal is good at Genji, but he isn't up there as a top Genji.

severe tusk
#

hmm i'd actually like to see shd vs nyxl in this meta

forest raven
#

Haksal got boomed by eileen

feral zodiac
#

If agilities was on Shanghai or shock

true hound
#

shh

tropic herald
#

Eileen turned on for this

ebon aurora
#

how good is Striker's Genji

feral zodiac
true hound
#

idk

grizzled badger
#

lets fucking goi

severe tusk
#

striker... doesn't play genji

true hound
#

Striker sticks with tracer

grizzled badger
#

SHANGHAI

tropic herald
#

Strikers Genji was serviceable

grizzled badger
#

REVERSE SWEEP 2

#

ELECTRIC BOOGALOO

true hound
#

yeah he was forced onto it for last point of Kings Row

#

They subbed him out for rascal

tropic herald
#

He had to play Genji for last point KR

grizzled badger
#

The APAC writers literally have nothing but the reverse sweep script

#

So they're recycling it

weak bolt
#

I'm still surprised we aren't seeing more Torb vs the Genji

forest raven
#

Lip is in

sullen berry
#

ah crap

severe tusk
#

gibraltar should have been their pick last map

sullen berry
#

draw stole my script

#

😡

sour magnet
#

shanghai is being bummed

feral zodiac
#

Lip in

#

Shanghai win

cloud latch
#

uh oh...

ebon aurora
#

here we go...

true hound
#

I guess they just wanna mirror the genji comp

#

Because blade builds fast and puts fat pressure

weak bolt
#

I think they're going to swap it and go Tracer Ashe

ebon aurora
#

Fleta, Lip, Fearless, Void, Izayaki, LJG is their best 6 imo

vagrant jacinth
#

Ah shit

ebon aurora
#

they very rarely lose maps with that 6

weak bolt
#

They aren't winning the Genji mirror at all, better to swap something

tropic herald
#

This is dive bois

fickle flicker
#

i agree with that @ebon aurora

sour magnet
#

LJQ is underperforming

tropic herald
#

LIP for da sombra

ebon aurora
#

Winston Zarya again?

feral zodiac
#

Time for 🤿

vagrant jacinth
#

Sombra time

tropic herald
#

Shanghai will run dive

#

Poggers

forest raven
#

If Shanghai lost on gibby playing sombra dive

#

Then Charge really is strong af atm PauseChamp

tropic herald
#

Izayaki Ana PauseChamp

severe tusk
#

i mean, eileen now has free blades

tropic herald
#

Nothing is a free blade with Izayaki

severe tusk
#

true haha

weak bolt
#

This tourney is weird, we're in a situation where 1 hero has become dominant for it, and then will likely become worse after it

severe tusk
#

yeah, i'd much rather the past four or five weeks also be the same meta

tropic herald
#

Eileen has blade already

#

Wow

karmic grotto
#

??

#

hello?

tropic herald
#

Doesn’t matter because Fleta echo

karmic grotto
#

charge?

#

wheres your blade

tropic herald
#

Fleta picked Eileen first

severe tusk
#

torb hmm

#

interesting

sour magnet
#

torb

tropic herald
#

Damn

severe tusk
#

ooo fleta

weak bolt
#

Can't deflect beams, nice to deal with Genjis

tropic herald
#

Fleta echo op

severe tusk
#

hmm that raises the question, who'st eh best echo atm

#

in the league

sour magnet
#

they're focusing eileen an ddenying the blade

#

rascal

severe tusk
#

yeah i reckon

weak bolt
#

Not seen enough Echo to name a best imo. Been a while since we saw many play it

severe tusk
#

mm

#

and it isn't played that much in NA either

sour magnet
#

APAC > NA

severe tusk
#

it would be interesting to see shock field rascal echo instead of genji tomorrow

pliant pond
#

Big things for Charge

karmic grotto
severe tusk
#

hmm momentum over

karmic grotto
#

@severe tusk tomorrow?

vagrant jacinth
#

Shanghai's sombra dive is sexy

tropic herald
#

That was just a game of shutdown Eileen

vagrant jacinth
#

Looking waay better with lip

fickle flicker
#

that was so good

weak bolt
#

Problem SHD have is can you force this dive on every map

sour magnet
#

Shanghai a Sombra only team?

severe tusk
#

i still dont understand why SHD chose anubis last map

#

instead of gibraltar

sour magnet
#

^

ebon aurora
#

what maps have we had so far: Ilios, Hollywood, Anubis

sour magnet
#

They wanted to mirror

fickle flicker
#

fearless is doing great on monkey

ebon aurora
#

they're not bad dive maps

tropic herald
#

Anubis is 2CP

#

Gibraltar isn’t

true hound
#

What am I looking at

tropic herald
#

You couldn’t have picked Gibraltar last time

true hound
#

This comp

ebon aurora
#

maybe they expected an Echo?

fickle flicker

ebon aurora

sour magnet

vagrant jacinth

sour magnet
#

LOL

severe tusk
#

zen in this meta... feels weird

tropic herald
#

What is this comp

fickle flicker
#

why zen...

weak bolt
#

This soldier is a bizarre pick

vagrant jacinth
#

I'd explode if there's a soldier mccree meta

sour magnet
#

rip the ult charge

#

braindead comp

severe tusk
#

i'd love to see a tracer mccree meta tbh

sour magnet
#

thrown next fight coz no ults

weak bolt
#

Zen would be for discord burst damage I guess, and potentially Trans vs Blade

sour magnet
#

ok nvm

#

no clue how they did that

tropic herald
#

It’s okay because now the Shanghai tanks can just play comfort licks

#

Picks

sour magnet
#

sigma winston pog

severe tusk
#

shd just gave up playing a comp

tropic herald
#

Eileen

#

Come on man

severe tusk
#

what was happy doing

#

he grapped into SHD while anti'd

weak bolt
#

The comp is pretty strong vs Genji, who does the genji try blade

tropic herald
#

Okay they swapping

sour magnet
#

its sad coz shanghai and charge are probably my 2 favourite teams

fickle flicker
#

why did they not just play this comp at the start

dreamy cave
#

if they keep getting anti grenades. charge is gonna have a bad time

tropic herald
#

I’d say sigma is your first target

severe tusk
#

rip fearless

#

lol he survives

sour magnet
#

Empathy is right

tropic herald
#

EMP on line

sour magnet
#

Ana is getting peeled for by brig constantly, fleta is soley on happy

#

u target sigma

weak bolt
#

Blading sigma still risky though, going to take 2 or 3 swings to kill, and if you get focused you're in trouble

tropic herald
#

It’s risky yet still your best option

sour magnet
#

still, no movement and im 90% sure sigma cant eat blade

#

genji into the comp isnt great hence the swap

severe tusk
#

sigma can't eat blade

sour magnet
#

ye xd

tropic herald
#

Happy oof

sour magnet
#

not eating the blade but like blocking the dmg

dreamy cave
#

BOB WAISTE

severe tusk
#

wastes bob

sour magnet
#

like genji deflect onto blade

severe tusk
#

why lol

#

i reckon if shd win this map they can get into gz's mentals

sour magnet
#

not really

#

its Guangzhou map pick if they win

#

so they pick a non dive map

tropic herald
#

I’m peeing white

dreamy cave
#

primal blade

ebon aurora
#

Fearless's Winston is nutty

tropic herald
#

Guxue who?

severe tusk
#

fearless is honestly insane on monkey

weak bolt
#

It's Junkertown or Rialto next right?

ebon aurora
#

better than Guxue now imo

forest raven
#

Fearless Winston xqcHYPERF

sour magnet
#

his winstons good but the healers are doing a great job and enabling him

dreamy cave

feral zodiac

severe tusk
#

vagrant jacinth
#

They looked waaay better

sour magnet
#

its still only 3-1 shanghai hasnt won yet

#

and its now guangzhou map pick

severe tusk
#

yep

weak bolt
#

I'd expect a Junkertown pick next honestly

vagrant jacinth
#

Soon as lip comes on

sour magnet
#

Shanghai has only looked strong on dive this series

#

Errrorr your probably right

vagrant jacinth
#

What map you guys thinking?

balmy wolf
#

fearless

severe tusk
#

junkertown i think would be smart from charge

sour magnet
#

Junkertown

viral veldt
#

Well this is a wierd thing to wake up to

severe tusk
#

get happy to flex

grizzled badger
#

REVERSE SWEEP 2 LETS FUCKING GO

balmy wolf
#

Happy needs his sightlines

grizzled badger
severe tusk
#

LMAOOOO

vagrant jacinth
#

Junkertowns a shout yeah

tropic herald
#

Busan

#

Dive map dive map

grizzled badger
#

The APAC script is reverse sweeps

weak bolt
#

Wait its control next? I thought Map 5 was always a payload map

grizzled badger
#

thats all

balmy wolf
#

Busan??

feral zodiac
#

Huh busan

grizzled badger
#

It's always Control Hybrid Assault Escort

tropic herald
#

I’m getting deja vu

vagrant jacinth
#

Script says everyone loses to dragons

grizzled badger
#

Not in that order but like in that batch

#

So after Map 4, they refresh the batch

severe tusk
#

hmm, would shd win in busan

sour magnet
#

LOL

weak bolt
#

yeah but 7 map series usually have different map 5/6

sour magnet
#

Why did charge pick busan

grizzled badger
#

Charge's just following the script

sour magnet
#

xD

dreamy cave
#

wish it was a assault map so we get a draw n more tokens

grizzled badger
#

We need to get to map 7 to get those sweep airtime dollars

sour magnet
#

Literally only one point u cant play dive

vagrant jacinth
#

Scriptwriters said so yeah

severe tusk
#

what would you run @sour magnet

dreamy cave
#

i honestly slept the 2nd map

tropic herald
#

Hol up

dreamy cave
#

how was it

severe tusk
#

2nd map was really good imo

tropic herald
#

Last time Shanghai swept

grizzled badger
#

LETS GOOO

#

REVERSE SWEEP

severe tusk
#

very, very close

tropic herald
#

It went Gibraltar Busan KR Junkertown

#

We have those first two maps

severe tusk
#

1 and 2 were close

#

very close

#

3 and 4 have seemed quite one-sided

next mesa
#

The reverse sweep begins

karmic grotto
#

I don't think so

sour magnet
#

Who do you guys want to win?

feral zodiac
#

Empathy

#

Get out of blizzard files

karmic grotto
#

xD

feral zodiac
#

Sir

next mesa
#

Dragons

weak bolt
#

Ah ok, Map 5 is Control, Map 6 is Hybrid, and Map 7 would be Junkertown/Rialto

feral zodiac
#

You're under arrest for information leaking

karmic grotto
#

if dragons reverse sweep this

tropic herald
#

Guangzhou are falling into Dragons trap card

karmic grotto
#

then dragons > Shock

severe tusk
#

i think charge will win, but i want to see a reverse sweep

next mesa
#

If dragons lose idk if anyone can beat shock

#

Why @karmic grotto

feral zodiac
#

Charge are right in front of you levy

raw ermine
#

Ok

#

what happened

feral zodiac
#

With the current meta charge could do it

sour magnet
#

Its crazy to think how good Shock is even after losing all those players

raw ermine
#

in the first 2 maps

weak bolt
#

This tournament all changes from next week, when Brig changes go in

sour magnet
#

last year they were literally invisible

severe tusk
#

^ charge could win in this current meta

forest raven
#

Current meta'll be gone the next time owl is on

feral zodiac
#

True

sour magnet
#

invincibile

vagrant jacinth
#

Pine 😔

severe tusk
#

in many other metas i think shock = dragons > charge

sour magnet
#

not invisible

tropic herald
#

This meta will be dead once the latch is live

severe tusk
#

i think this season the competition has gotten a lot better tho

tropic herald
#

Patch

weak bolt
#

I think the Ashe/Tracer/Bap/Zen meta returns from next patch.

next mesa
#

I don't think charge can beat shock with double shield

severe tusk
#

yea empathy

feral zodiac
#

Shock didn't lose that many of their top players

fickle flicker
#

busan puppHmm

true hound
#

Shock lost

#

Sinatraa

severe tusk
#

they lost the architect ana

true hound
#

Like bruh

tropic herald
#

Shock lost players you could consider redundant

severe tusk
#

jkjk

dreamy cave
#

i think widow comes into being MORE meta over ash

true hound
#

oh architect too

tropic herald
#

Lets be real here

true hound
#

but does it matter that much when all their DPS are insane

severe tusk
#

sinatraa wasn't really that important in a non-zarya meta tho

sour magnet
#

Architect, Sinatraa

tropic herald
#

Like I love Architect and Sinatraa but did you need them

next mesa
#

Shock losing sinatraa doesn't change much

true hound
#

Striker god tracer, ANS cracked hitscan, Rascal great flex

#

Yeah

severe tusk
#

^^

true hound
#

Sinatraa wasn’t even best on the team kekw

weak bolt
#

Sinatraa/Architect were bench players this season. Shock didn't lose that much

sour magnet
#

Still

severe tusk
#

except for zarya

#

sinatraa zarya was actually cracked

sour magnet
#

The flexibility that architect brought

true hound
#

Sinatraa benched himself tho

sour magnet
#

^

tropic herald
#

Happy

sour magnet
#

and Sinatraa being able to zarya or dps

raw ermine
#

damnnn

balmy wolf
#

😩

next mesa
#

Why would you need architect when you have rascal

true hound
#

Still remember Sinatraa tracer getting styled on by SBB

balmy wolf
sour magnet
#

if they had last years roster and was all happy they'd win by far

dreamy cave
#

sinatra, rascal, striker, and architect were all great flexes

grizzled badger
#

happy not following the script smh

severe tusk
#

are they going to switch off the echo..?

weak bolt
#

What hero would you play Sinatraa on though? His Tracer was ok, but Striker was better

forest raven
#

Did Achilios just say "ez clap ez cap"

vagrant jacinth
#

Lmaoo

true hound
#

idk doomfist?

#

Or zarya?

tropic herald
#

Fleta

true hound
#

But that’s not gonna happen

tropic herald
#

Oh boy

vagrant jacinth
#

Ez cap

next mesa
#

Sinatraa was going to play

grizzled badger
#

fleta

tropic herald
#

Okay apparently Smurf Zarya is good or something

next mesa
#

But it was mainly for his coms and leadership

grizzled badger
#

is the meta

severe tusk
#

true, they lost some comms in sinatraa

forest raven
#

Yeah smurf's zarya is supposed to be a bit of a sleeper pick

severe tusk
#

but tbh i think they'll be fine

dreamy cave
#

imagine shock temporary signing sinatra back into the lineup for 2 weeks

clear crane
#

oo that stun emp

grizzled badger
#

Signing Sinatraa back for the grand finals sounds totally like a thing the Shock would do

weak bolt
#

It'd weaken shock to bring him back in now imo

severe tusk
#

why did ljg rally?

#

is the 6 percent really worth that much

weak bolt
#

That 6% takes it to a 1 fight situation

grizzled badger
#

I think they were just trying to keep Void up too

weak bolt
#

and Rally charges so quick

grizzled badger
#

Bring Back LJG Lucio

severe tusk
#

true true

vagrant jacinth
#

Happy soldier

severe tusk
#

but rally is also really helpful for engage

#

ah well im not owl for a reason :blaze:

tropic herald
#

So is a nano Winston

weak bolt
#

Probably going for the 1 fight emp win

grizzled badger
#

Lip's close to EMP

balmy wolf
severe tusk
#

balmy wolf
#

sour magnet

grizzled badger

Actual Shang9

sour magnet

balmy wolf

Does c9 stand for anything?

grizzled badger

Fearless threaded that needle

vagrant jacinth
#

Nooo

karmic grotto

Great use of Deadeye there, stalled for 6 or 7 seconds to get Lucio back

karmic grotto

and still manage to lose 5v6

Why would you run genji on Sanc

#

severe tusk

oo eileen gets the pick too

SHD have gone to comfort picks rather than trying to force Meta, working better for them

sour magnet

SHD is meta

tropic herald

Even now they are going meta and still winning
