defiant 3-0 fusion and defiant 4-0 shock ggez
Because of genji meta
They're running on adrenaline and agilities genji
imagine if shock had sinatraa for genji
or him yea
Best genji
Rascal too
Sinatraa doesnt play gengo or yes?
What?
gotta put super on genji
The super genji
he deffo would be benched over Architect or Rascal
@earnest leaf thats why the fire started. they wouldnt let super play genji so he started a fire in la
lol
Super going on a rampage
dude nyxl make me frustrated
They've always been so close to being that top tier thay you see with shock or shanghai
Then jusy fail
They have striker for tracer
Bruh
Sinatraa leaving didn't change much
But super said he was going to play because sinatraa was a leader in game
And crusty likes that
Man, Uprising getting the good players, then the good players go to better teams
LOL
Gotta work on that script and full upsets
"- Crusty: We know that Paris is a threat and we don't have much VOD review time. Let's pay Blizz to delay to make a Tweet that because of technical difficulties, the match won't start."

Here's the thing
Paris tanks create space for sparkle
You need to shutdown the tanks first
Wonder if moth will play brig this time
Rascal is the better brig
If the tanks of paris put pressure on shock tanks, then shock tanks won't be able to do much
the opposite is also true
they have rascal
Is rascal a better genji than sp9rk1e tho
Its a battle of genjis and the resources put into them
idk
Is rascal a better genji than sp9rk1e tho
yes
ayyy asking got signed to Karasuno

He loves ow so much.
Dude i thought he was still retired
I was today years old when I learned that owl has a blacklist but they don’t tell you if you’re on it

oh wait what
Anyone else think it's weird that OWL blacklists players from ever competing in OWL without telling them?
417
Carter blacklisted
lmao
I wouldn t be surprised if Higan was there too
Some Streamers maybe
if you're blacklisted from owl, it's 100% your doing
Probably a dickhead or asshat in some way
Ew Carter
Or egotistical
Probably DK and Mouffin too
Also, Asking retires much as he changes his pants
He just wants to have that sweet owl
Remember when he uninstalled OW to wait for Valorant
then Reinstalled because joined Contendies
Then leaving again
The asking cycle
xQc probably blacklisted
lmao
doubt it tho
I dont think he is
if they let him in OWWC i wouldnt see why he would still be blacklisted for OWL
I think Carter is referring to Higan
Canada LMAO
Yeah, I’m fairly certain the tweet isn’t about carter himself but more Higan getting chucked
Being toxic doesnt necessarily get you blacklisted, but racist remarks and being a DreamKazper/Mouffin will
although u got bigger things to worry about once ur in DK territory
Surefour might be wanting to play again after the defiants run in the summer showdown
Yeah
Surefour may retire im betting
Maybe
He seems to enjoy streaming
S4 is very likely retiring
might be bait
very unlikely to be bait
S4 is washed though in my opinion
Where are eternal based
I just told my 5year old brother owl wouldn't be on for another ither half hour and he called then little liers😂
Whatever the reasoning behind the delay is supposedly funny
ye
yup
it was supposed to be temporary
they wouldn't play if in paris
until they got a more permanent area in Paris
Also easier to scrim against OWL teams in NA
No they straight up wouldn't theyd be on 120+ ping if in paris rn
right after this tourney today, fly all of Shock into Korea
and let them do their quarantine haha
music starting on stream
How is the game going?
What's the score
Wouldn't be suprised
Gotta be honest
This montage gets better every time I see it
bruh this sounds like geometry dash music
brussen is back playing as well
Lets go Paris vs Toronto finals
ye 4-2
and nyxl lost to gzc
super close though
they were always good
shd smoked them as soon as they went to dive
Just watch their game coming into this
nyxl disappointing as always
but SHD had to go back to double shield
yh that gibraltar match
You are fucked
the shanghai Winston Sigma McCree Soldier Ana Zen though
gzc deserves it
Ofc
they prob wouldve lost if hotba was still in the team
Lip def should have been in
Its not just the Widow play, it just seems like SHD are a different team with Lip in then Diem
i think diem did fine
lmfao Chipsa
but like
coaching and decision making
I bet we have a delay because Super deleted Overwatch off of his PC to make room for Worms: Reloaded and forgot to reinstall it when he was done playing Worms: Reloaded.
#OWL2020
204
I hate how this is realistic
Lol
Who is Nero?
dps for charge
the flex dps for charge
Thx
carpe gonna dink everyone
mr logix though
So many contenders for mvp this tournament jeez
yay Eqo again
Runaway now is not OWL level, as fanboy-triggering as that sounds. People loved them for their underdog streak, and their vibrant brand/personality, but expecting them to get pick up is very unrealistic. They still have to actually win something first
is that a copy pasta? @tropic herald
@tropic herald u talking about runaway now?
45% holy shit
or a copy pasta
Only ans has ever got higher
ans with 56% on Ilios, Carpe with 45% on Junkertown, and 42% Decay on Rialto
guess thats the list for now
didnt Corey and Happy get 42% last year?
Didn't dinkzr get 40 something against mayhem
33% over the course of the full game
Still insane
yeah
But jeez
What's happy's best this year?
not sure
hopefully sado is not bado
Nori!!!!
Usually he's good
for some reason he gets picked a lot
it comes down to teamwork, communication, and the supports
#1 muma
what i see from these teams is that theyre quite messy
@clear crane that was Miso :P
ah the good ol OWL vs OWL
Nori is the fluffiest one
ah oops 
sparkle gonna feed on gengo
Crong a rookie I believe
Ah
My bad
Charge got 3-0'd by shanghai then beat them in the rematch before hand
Paris got 3-0'd by shock and now it's a rematch

Two top teams losing to the team they 3-0'd before 
dem stats
Shanghai was supposedly better than Charge, but not A LOT better
But Shock
They ARE WAY better than Eternal
Also, I'm an Eternal fan
93% accretion hits????
Hogyobin
wait wtf????
i think by efficiency it means like
93% of the time he hits an accretion someone dies
ay i know there's a very small chance of it happening, but i can dream
Reign are meant to be a lot better than defiant
And defiant beat them
I think you're missing the point of an upset
Like, charge beating Shanghai wasn't an upset
Just people don't normally watch charges games so they're largely unknown to most of the western people
j omegalul ke
And people banged on about Shanghai non stop
SHD have not looked nearly as invincible as Shock
whether its cause of the quality teams around them, who knows, but yea Paris winning here would be major upset
I just want to see scrims Shanghai 
Assuming this ends up as Philly v Shock I think Philly wins the Genji matchup
EQO Genji > Rascal Genji
I dont think Shock will bother running Genji
what do they run instead since Genji is meta atm
Tracer
Prob what they been doing. Tracer/Ashe/Widow
When you got the best Widow and Tracer in the world combined with that tank/support line you can do whatever you want and win
Its close. I hope we see that matchup today if they both make it to finals
tanks and supports I agree though
I think Moth and Viol2t just outclass Alarm and Astro
but only just
Junkertown to me shows they are gonna rather have Heesu on Tracer/ Carpe Widow if they run that
I am still lowkey on Defiant that will upset fusion
I wonder if Astro plays outside of control
he hasnt the 2 weeks, and Alarm has taken Brig duty over Bap
wasn't sfs shock match the one to start first ?
ohh
Xzi vs Ans will be nice
It was even meant to start an hour ago
if agilities turns up then yeah
Toronto winnign would be huge , SFS will probably win but i just hope someone else maybe if sp9rkle goes even harder with Genji then ever then we might see a dethrone
Toronto has been playing fine and I find them the only team that has a chance to upset fusion/SFS
I still don't understand how Defiant look so good in this tournament when Dallas 3-0ed them in this meta last week
and that was without Decay
Bad day maybe
and the week before Vancouver 3-0ed Dallas where Defiant 3-0ed Van
nothing makes sense anymore
erster i think
yeah
Edison
Yeah Erster
Erster didnt play yesterday which was surprising
Did it start
Anyone know if babybay is quitting overwatch or just leavign the overwatch league scene /
Erster genji was...something
"EQO calls Defiant weak" damn
erster playing genji like it's BEAT s5
Play Chipsa!
I'd say that EQO is an "esteemed" Genji. Not quite a god just yet.
eqo got signed right before genji fell out of meta so im not sure how good he is
from what I remember he plays safe mechanically, but I could be misremembering
more safe than sdb yes
probably got better blades than agilities tho kekw
SDB was benched because EQO's more aggressive style gelled with the Philly team as a whole better than SDB's passive one.
w
tf
Symmetra Carpe
XD
wiped..

i thought sado was bad
that was like a 5 sec shatter zoo wee mama
and kariv has window already..?
which is like what
lol
450 dmg total?
sado establishing dominance
Nice save on Sado
Damn numlocked fucked rein ulti
land a firestrike and that's 1050 dmg
sdb pepehands
this is a fun af pharah map
it hit agilities, they just didn't quite get the followup
and might as well throw it out, he'll get another next fight
This is bad for Philly.
philly needs to be playing faster and drawing out ults
almost matched in ults
the defensive advantage with sym is insane
They tried to drag it out, and get more ults out of Toronto that way, but Defiant didn't bite. They just waited and won by investing 1 ult.
Nice Carpe save
Damn
But DAAAAAAMN

nvm carpe carry
Gg
They still pulled it out. Well done.
Logix lol
logix almost throwing
So many kills at once
bro what the fuck
eqo just vibing in the back
numlocked dies if they kite the engage until he's ready
Imagine If defiant make it to the finals
what the ffuuuuuuuuck
How cracked would that be
was numlocked about to get nuked by astro lmao
Did his job.
did the man just get frozen midblade
Invested quite the ulti's and barely won it
He put in the damage and created space.
yes, he bladed during Lucio's ult
F for eqo
I wouldn't say barely, I didn't see frontline battle
He did get frozen midblade, if he was taken down it could of went either way
OO
BEAMMMM
LOGIX
MICROWAVEEE
LOGIX
Blizzard? Yummy.

THE LEFT CLICK

Wait don't throw defiant
Logix went bzzzzzzzt
??????????????
defiant get spawners first
????
yea that was bad
probs going for the reset
Bob is bad

The bob gave literally nothing
unlucky
bro
pogger my doggers
for real
carpe unlucky
Defiaaaant
nice round
defiant really doesnt like bracket people
carpe doomfist
what an incredible round
fucking what
eqo with the bot mechanics
could've saved round
instead lucio lives and kills him and carpe
imagine if carpe clutched that out
this is a lot closer than it should be
carpe could have clutched that before the rein came
EQO also almost saved that round, so he can get a pass on that.
the microwave
eqo keeps getting his iceblock forced so early
Numlooooocked
ooo nice shatter

Phily is playing annoyingly bad this time
Why exactly is EQO Mei
What's going on
Oooof
because they need him to flex to gengi
sado outclassed?
@karmic grotto Because they need a Genji first and foremost, but also someone who can run the Mei.
Why is Toronto doing well
O
Logix is decent
^
And kariv has always been a god
Numlocked??
Logix has always been decent
kariv = god
Kariv Ana god
Yeah but he's really turning up this tournament
GG
BIG SLAM
Sado what a fat shatter
Gg thats map 1
rein comps are fucking lit
Sado is mado
Nevix is a chair
I'd sit on Nevix...
They could win at this rate
ye
Defiant being cracked
there's no way defiant take this
Defiant always lose map 1
Yes
It’s genji time mother fuckers
Control is not very accurate
Nothing new here
Doggo what happened to your messages

Is Sym meta in Control maps or is it just a Lijiang Tower thing
Lijiang thing
its map dependent
Carpe doom fist? @true hound
@feral zodiac deleting them, idk but every time I write something Toronto looses OMEGALUL
carpe d o o m

he played it to stall
Wtf just bring in chipSa
Just let chipsa play ffs
Easy dub
I still have not gotten my tokens
I am such a slut for free tokens
Rl
I have only received once my tokens
Unlucky.
And still haven't again after now what 3 hours of watching together
I got 25 on the 3rd and have not gotten more since and I have watched every game since yesterday na
I just bought 100 on my own cause I couldn't care smh
Easy win here leggo Tor
hopefully they come through eventually since I have watched like 6 hours
Time to see Agilties and Eqo genji's
yeah
lmao
lulw xqc's ow stream close to OWL viewership
Carpe stoppp
they lost out on so much pressure from that dynamite
what is with pros and blading like shit
It was far fetched for toronto to go any further
OOF
lmao
Now Defiant does have no ulti's at all

the flux at the end wasnt needed
Yeah
I mean you have what, an ashe and a bap behind a window?
this series is definitely going to fusion lmao
and if that finds value you can straight up lose the fight
fusion just decimate all their pushes
Ugh they lost completely with only sigma ult used
cuz I think dynamite is boosted by window
so a double damage dynamite then ashe and bap spam
I can't truly blame Nevix for that.
STOP BRUNGING DAHSHS

AGILITIES
Blade got nothing but made them backup hard
unluckyyyy
lol

you can't slash/dash/slash a 400hp target even with bongo
and the instant dash is out there's so much counterplay to blade
ooh
I didn't like fusion using flux there
that was a nice blade
Agilities about to lap Eqo
Defiant now has bob and rally they can close it out
@forest token Yes, you can.
can you?
Mmhm.
120 + 120 + 50 -> 290
Supercharge gives you 50% extra damage, same as Nano.
it is just so crazy watching the defiant get a slight advantage and then boom whole push gone
- 50% is 290 + 145
Slash - Dash - Slash is enough to kill 400 HP heroes.
nice finish
Agilities so good
for sure
bro
ayy we have time
agilities
how much does bap heal
50 a shot.
Lets gooooo Paris vs Toronto finals
lmao
yeah so any kind of healing denies that breakpoint
Shock unless they have a stroke are going to win
cuz it's 35 dmg over
which sucks
and if it's a tank you kinda have to assume they're gonna get spammed healing
unless fusion maybe because carpe going off
so yeah still not a great dash
I don't disagree with that.
?????????
RIP
Damn lost that way to quick
ye fight would've been instantly over
Woops and yeah
the flux put them so far ahead that it didn't really matter tho
more like "I can't hit the shot so I'm going to let her burn out instead"
Yeah Toronto is losing
But I think we can all appreciate that the team not playing Mei is losing
Buff Mei 
No Cuyo
The team not playing Mei (at the moment) is winning.
Anyone know what in game sensitivity settings players that use 4800 dpi use
Heard the average in owl is 4800 dpi
Take that to General-Discussion.

gg 2-0
That was
Such bad
Positioning
This is pro play btw
"Let us go on the other side of the map without defending the point"
Day whatever of asking blizzard to nerf pull
Hope it doesn't become a 3-0 Defiant are playing quite well
someone tell me why they aren't playing genji mirror on defense
they reliant on mei's def potential on kings row
@clear crane ok I'll prob go in game at 1 and then 4800 dpi
at 1?
oh in game sen
I play at 6 for most heroes besides hitscans where i go 5.5 and then my dpi is 800
its like 5 messages lol relax
@novel pelican yes but they aren't doing well. Genji comp is what has gotten toronto map wins also I would say genji is pretty good 1st point
like it's so counterintuitive to me
eh you'd have to ask the coaching staff what they think
mei has seen great potential on first point kings row
also, imo
defiant cant compete against fusion in the mirror matchups
agilities is the better genji, but carpe and boombox, not to mention alarm's brig, is doing better than logix
stats right here
I agree with that fusions are the most mechanically and individually the best team in OWL
ehhhhh
i wouldnt say that exactly
but like you said I think agilities can outdo eqo on genji so Idk why they don't just one trick that. Mei may have potential but not on toronto
but their individual talent is some of the higher ones yeah
again, mirror matchups
name a team more individually talented than fusions except shock
mirror matchups are only applied when the player believes they can outskill the other mirror
thats why you apply different heroes to find a better outlet for victory
playstyle will change slightly but running genji is the xfactor for toronto imo
maybe, but its still dependent on the mirror
you'd have to have logix swap off the ashe, or something else
i dont see it being feasible for defiant to win against fusion if they try to mirror
different opinions but I think they do better at least running genji instead of mei
it's not like agilities is good at mei
The carpe advantage is too much for defiant
@grizzled mango dragons?
I guess it's debatable
dragons have crazy good synergy but individually I put phily above them
agilities is good at mei wym
I would say dragon is the better team obviously
hes better on the genji for sure but agilities is definitely strong at mei
I think dynasty has always been a very individually talented team but the results don't meet the expectations
his mei got better over the season but he makes some questionable decisions on mei
but ur still missing my point: you dont want agilities to run genji because then you force a mirror matchup, and as i said earlier, the defiant arent as good as fusion in the mirror
and if you want agilities to run the genji and have a better chance of winning, you have to swap ur other dps/support line
If they lose, they will go down with this comp
The only reason they got this far was this comp
I fully understand your point. But I dont really agree with it. Every other roles except mei/genji is still mirrored. Bringing in mei does change up the playstyle but it doesn't really change the fact that fusions are significantly better like you said. I think the x factor is agilities on genji though
Yes legacy I agree
yes, and the dps duo between logix and agilities were better than the other team dps duo in the mirror matchup
but now that carpe is clearly the better ashe, defiant will either have to step up their game and logix get much better, or make non-mirror matchups
Non-mirror and being out of their comfort zone gives them less of a chance to me.
Not fear, play with hesitation
They aren't expected to win they know that
They need to move
so might as well just run what they are best at
Theres a better chance of Tor winning with Agilities and Logix turning it higher than Carpe/Eqo then running any other comp
Yeah this will be a 3-0
People are always clamoring for teams to play to their strengths rather than blindly following the meta. Both of these teams are playing to those strengths here.
I mean I don't think anyone was questioning the outcome of the match but I do wish they go out playing what they are best and most confident at
oof rip
Toronto showed some of phillys flaws on the first two maps
gg this is over
At least the 1 hour delay we had this morning is kinda getting made up
Defiant still played really well
we will be back on track if Shock 3-0 Paris lol
Hope they can improve
I think defiant exceeded expectations this tourney
EVERYONE is likely to get destroyed by the Shock. That doesn't really say anything new.
I do think that mechanically Toronto DPS are better
agilities vs eqo maybe logix vs carpe hell no
the tank diff isnt as bad
gg
oh jesus
The tank diff and comms diff is really bad...
gg
gg
tank diff is pretty bad but I don't think thats the reason for logix being worse than carpe
hats off to Toronto
People forget how cracked logix is
I thought defiant would also be able to take 1
Hopefully they build onto this for the countdown cup
First and second map was close
Numlocked feeding
But third was just a stomp
This match shows Toronto have just a few issues
mentally boomed rip
With tanks and communication
logix is cracked, but carpe is even more cracked
Toronto needs to find a better tank to replace numlocked
i get that logix hasnt been able to show all his abilities, but carpe is still doing much better
Kariv has played amazing this tourney
That was disappointing
kariv always pops off
Defiant got hot just to get smashed
I seriously think a logix Carpe 1v1 would be very even
defiant got really far tho
This wasn’t a disappointment at all
I think first two maps looked pretty good for toronto although genji>mei
First two maps close as hell
surefour where
logix>surefour
Defiant went from a lower-mid table team to an upper level contender in one weekend. I'm satisfied.
What happened to Wanted?
i honestly couldve seen surefour on the swap for logix
wanted quit for valorant i believe
surefour has better comms imo, better organization
pretty sure coaches have said surefour is very silent
He did. But hasn’t been live for over a month. Nothing on his twitter either
couldve used surefour comms, not to mention his ashe is pretty nutty too
Did chipsa play
he carried from bench
but we couldve seen more organized play with s4 in the mix imo
I think they are pretty similar but logix has more pop off potential
last map was hella confused from the defiant
idk why people think s4 will lead to better comms
defiant boomed after getting rolled on kings row defense
all Toronto needs is a main tank
Overwatch League is about to take the whole enchilada.
they got beast and numlocked
Yeah. Neither of them really have big brains
couldve tried beast, but i think the biggest thing is just unorganized play
Toronto has no leader
The comms are fucked
Anyways
I think xzi will do fine against ans
Twilight isn't even wearing a jersey. Where's the damn ref?
smurf said fuck the camera
These Shock players are degenerates.
Sp9rkle just feeding 
rip xzi
Ans out for blood again
This is GGs
GO ETERNAL!
Benbest????
how can a team just be so dominant it takes out all the fun
Yoo
😮
too soon
At least its competitive so far
YOOOOO
WHAT
whaa
WTF
WHAT
LETS GOOOOOO
WHAAAAAt

So we got a match
Hanbin with the 1000 IQ ball
i thought they lost when shock got the two picks
Hanbin on da ball
YOO
^^
😮
80% already
oh man
Damn
even still
paris jsut won themselves a win condition
cause shock refused to look bacc
literally built a whole emp lol
I beg these teams to stop pushing so aggressively
eternal > fusion?
Like you’re playing against shock
I love Sombra
Ans is so fucking cracked
xd
if you wanna join our esports team pushing for conenders we need every role and we like about 2.5k to 3.0k
Oof.
oof
does xzi even play sombra
Paris relies way too much on dps
Nano incoming
garbage emp
lmfao Smurf went for it again
Xzi wins the duel
why was he even there
Paris needs to win
how the fuck sparkle bulds ult so fast
D:
DAMN
noo
Choi used blade
wow
They really just lost a 2 man advantage
Ngl, XZI is actually doing good vs ans on mirror
xzi is still underrated somehow
Yeah xzi = ans
^^ yes
They’re pretty even
Xzi 
He has more middle control
Strikeeeerrrr
Paris needs a whole Korean roster lol
We got a game they said
Sparkle playing genji may lose them the game
I think benbest and fdgod are playing well no need to replace them imo
Communication and such
What a throw
Throwiong shock
Speaking of overextending...
Lol
Why did jake sound not supported
The tanks kept pushing in
Suprised
Or something
Viol2t
you don't need to know much english to effectively communicate in game
