jesus fuel is having an interesting day
this is almost Titans level stuff
Does that mean Yong is HC?
damn
Aero released
Bro I don’t know what’s happening
@green stump Aero is gone
I don't watch Dallas matches anymore, didnt even knew about their new player. But hope there will be improvements
🦀 AERO IS GONE🦀
is their new head coach Korean?
Well I think their other two coaches were Korean
So I’d assume
Hold up
That one coach is LFT
wish there were more Crusty's lol
🧐
-
Took down Fusion Uni..
-
Took down Titans..
I think it’s time to create a streak of my own.
LFT OWL Head Coach
720
Holy crap Dallas is going crazy
I wonder if we see other bench riders get dropped
To be fair they've all farmed the money from owl and prepared for valorant 
it's weird when Crusty coached Note, he looked really good. But I can't say coaching is easy. Can't blame it to Aero
Aero was the head coach of Team USA who won last OWWC right?
!!commands
!!help
Hi, I'm Effect. Retired Overwatch league player.
Read: https://t.co/mIApQ2dDXS

in better news
Those just aren’t commands
Effect wrote a dallas fuel song
!!listoftags
you can't use commands without a role
I didnt even knew about paintbrush lol
🦀 aero is gone 🦀
I ain't even a dallas fan and this is exciting
Gamsu & Note are still good tanks. It's really good coaching, but Paris Fusion and Shock are really showing. Shanghai aswell. idk if we can praise Hunters coaching lol
especially Paris making Benbest a starter who a lot did not expect for this season
I mean before Crusty Sinatraa and Super are decent. When Crusty coached Boston they went insane.
Good coaching is important & it showed in the past
Most players in the league could go far with an extremely good coach
Still think it’s good to see they made Soon & Benbest not bench players. I dont know if they really play the france genji player
Nico?
Ye
Does he still have playtime
Nico basically just plays Mei on KotH
He played control during the summer showdown
I do think stuff like that makes it dope, make good use of all your players instead perma bench them
yers
yes*
and he might have a better echo as well
btw that song is really good
And the plane may be to high
The shock may be to strong
but as long as we go on then I
I know we can try
I know we can fly
I know that we’ll break through the wall and seize the prize
not so subtle
spitfire and shock
🦀 aero is gone 🦀
Have decided to part ways with @DallasFuel
I started coaching Overwatch in 2016. I've coached many players and have worked with multiple teams. I've won big tournaments and I've been on crazy loss streaks. I've celebrated players who've accomplished great things and
364
Aero was the FUNI coach for a little
oh yeah, I forgot that
does he get any credit for what they did?
I would think not
I dont get the EFFECT twitlonger
he was with FUNI for 4 months
maybe getting clout for his song?
didnt jayne also retire
jayne invented esports. he cant retire.
ok but why did he leave dallas
because he is shit
isn't he going to be untouchable at this point?
ah
like, I don't know what connections he had at Dallas
but does he really think he can get another coaching gig?
Team Envy is inactive
they gonna stuck with the interin till the tournie ends
Wonder who they'll sign
team doge has a coach or two now
and Dallas is a mess now
sephy? LUL
I think Aero should drop the coaching part and look to be a player management or something
also has mangachu ever played in owl
He’s a really good person just not for coaching
Mangachu moves over to coach
In season 2
no but like have he ever played in a match
Yes
when
ok
Fusion
yeah he did
No he didn’t play then
He was a coach well before summer showdown
the rare zunba in owl
Teams earn so little when they're not in the top 4 lmao
way back in 2017
I just remember S4 Torb v Mangachu Torb
obviously it wont happen
But I don't believe that the Fuel would win with him as owner
i think hastro has family ties to the envy org
He had success in Contenders and pre-OWL. Great. But has shown nothing in OWL
like with phillys owners
?

I think Fuel should really clear their benches too
@balmy wolf they are, Envy, Dallas Fuel and the CODL Dallas
well this was a spicy day
will onigod burnout first or would doha burnout first? 🙂
there are definitely teams that would want decay but are there teams that want to hire aero lol
lol
welp fuel has been plagued with bad HC since the beginning
lets see if anything grand changes from this
to be fair, im not gonna blame aero for everything. I am sure hes at fault for a lot of things that went wrong with the team and he shouldve done something about it as head coach but there could be other factors.
I just never got the hype for him
he coached the funi roster in contenders
the same roster that went undefeated for almost 2 years
Omg aero gone
aero only stayed in the funi for 1 year but the success was already there, he coach a roster that went undefeated their entire contenders season
that Funi roster was insanely stacked
but I dont think it warrants this long of a tenure
when he has been underwhelming for 2 years now
obviously but during his pickup in season 1 it was reasonable as to why he was picked up
but I doubt him leaving solve all the problems fuel as a team is
🤔
like decay wanted to piss them off
anyway i think the major problems stems from the management
always seem to have problems as a team when they shouldnt
its weird
yeah
Dallas stonks
did you see the other releases?
Not yet
AKM Trill and Unkoe still on th ebench doe
Getting rid of Aero was a good move but who they hire in place of him matters more
Yong is interim rn
yeah but idk how well he will do
?
I can't see the thread of aero being realised
weird
lol
Assisnt coach
Is he Korean
Yes
Decay being removed was a mistake, hes a great player. Aero needed to go he is way to passive of a coach (while being passive can help in some scenario's) his passivity caused problems to get worse.
well at least decay will 100% get picked up next season if he doesnt retire
oh yeah they kicked him right as trading windows closed didnt they
if he doesnt retire he will get basically an auction for however long it is until contracts are allowed
they removed him at his request
he was gonna be dead weight anyway and he prob wouldn't resign a contract at the season end
i really doubt decay decided to get remove today when they deadline was due
Decay was not deadweight he carried the fuel
the same thing happened to rascal
Yeah i doubt decay removed himself
either way im assuming decay just saw no hope and will wait until season 4
he probably asked a while ago they just wanted to stall so he couldnt just go to another team
cant wait for the next bidding war again
after the shit storm titans had I bet their gonna go budget next year
yeah
Vancouver made the worst decision possible during their little fiasco. They could've at least tried to trade the players off instead of going dropping all of them
That way they would've still had a competent team
apparently along with poor communication, they had presumably budget problems which is why they dropped tizi and bumper
since they were nearing the salary cap of the team
I understood dropping bumper he was basically a rein one trick and if his teammates aren't as good as they are he would've fed every single game. But I always thought dropping tizi was a bad move as I thought he had a lot of potential.
Dallas parts ways with Decay because he isn't willing to work with the coaching staff, but 2 members of the coaching staff are out at the same time? 🤔
bumper was the fan favourite and the leader, dropping him was bad
tbh they could have kept both bumper and tizi
This actually makes me wonder too.... they just got rid of the 2 non korean coach and made the KR coach the head coach....
it's the common MT line nowadays
a rein player, and a orisa-winston player
envy just gave up on the envyus 2017 core and went full korean LUL
@loud yoke nowhere near a rein one trick
yea but dropping bumper was just a slap to the face of runaway
Bumper flexed to whatever his team needed to
that roster played together for almost 3 years
he started as a main support, then played off tank, and then played main tank
releasing Bumper was an extremely dumb decision
and bumper was nowhere near a 1 rein one trick
ok but still his rein was iffy if his team hadn't been their he would've fed a lot
You see, that's the reason, bumper trusted on his team
him being super aggro was the strat
^
Their team was aware of bumper playing like that
your right it was the goats meta
if his team couldnt pull it off then he wouldnt have played like that
Making them very aggro similar SFS style
When you remember Bumper wasn’t even a main tank player that long ago
even if he did "engage the turbo feed to warp speed" as avast would say
It worked because their teammates knew how every one played
his winston was arguably even more aggro than his rein ironically
Bumpers most aggro hero was his Hanzo
outside of goats i dont think he wouldve done well. his playstyle was made for agro metas
wow wait
expect he did well outside of goats
decay got fired today?
he'll be released at the end of the season
before goats yes but in the current double sheilds meta no
I think bumper wouldve done poorly in double sheilds not being able to be aggressive and all
coaching exist for a reason
hmm yeah but remember, he plays how his team wants him to
even super won the WC playing orisa
if he cant be aggro he wont
and super hates orisa a lot
orizzzza

The thing about goats was if you just didn’t respect the enemy you won
and tune it up when he knew they couldnt handle him
Bumpers style let him live rent free in the enemy tanks head
their was no respect in goats you just held W
yes there was lol
If you respect the other team you were gonna get rolled
The two best teams had very little respect for their opponents
becuase they were shit
but titans and shock were always like light switches
just turning it on and off whenever needed
I’ve decided that I will watch stage 1 finals
i just found out about the decay thing. so rip fuel you will now forever lose to outlaws and maybe even Boston now.
if an org release a player do they need their consent?
man, and playoffs is right around the corner
Yeah, a lot of changes being made before playoffs, not to mention players leaving
I heard there was something that prevented other teams from signing him in the contract
Not sure if it’s true
wow dallas really being a cockblock
it is the timing
they let him free the day rosters locked
and said it was a coincidence basically lol

and said it was a coincidence basically lol
was there a tweet or smth on it?
sure, but it is a little convenient that it happened today, innit?
well probably
but if there is smth in the contract that prevents signing
the release date doesn't matter
as far as I know, there is not smthn in the contract
i guess only Hastro knows himself
I suppose
he had a degree in music theory, I think someone said
i knew he was a musician
but never really heard his work
saw a video of him on drums
is the regular season over btw? Havent been paying attention
there are many players unhappy with Dallas
I dont think the regular season is over
how much is left
but this is the last tournament before the playoffs
with all the releases, i take it dallas season is done
so maybe like 1 month before playoffs
problem
probably*
unless
releasing aero was
a good move
and they make some
drastic changes
but unless onigod comes to na
idk
Aero going from savior of fuel in end of s1 and s2, to bad coach #1
he wasn't saviour of S2 tho lololol
i am
I mean aero was doing well until the 2nd half of season 2
where they lost every single game expect 1 after stage 2
they went to being in the top 10 I believe to being the in the bottom 5 in the end
If you look at their stage 1 and 2 schedule compared to their stage 3 and 4 schedule that explains that
🙏 for Crimzo and his mother
Damn that sucks for him. Really hasn't been his day today. Hope all is better soon for him 🙏
What happened
Poor girl
when valorant is so boring to play
that streamers that left overwatch for valorant came back
to play overwatch
Because overwatch is such a great game
Great is questionable... but it certainly has a way of pulling back it’s player base
LMAO OVERWATCH IS NOT GREAT
ok
ow is painful but fun
Like... spicy food as a white dude (coming from an asian)
Nah some white guys can tank spices easily
some
The ones that just don't taste anything 
Peppe hands
my friend is asian and one soup full of spicy ramen and he sweating like a pig 
I mean... same lol
It’s the heat of the food
Combined with the fact that it’s intentionally as spicy as possible
Ik
But not a good tasting spice, just a hot spice
Small brain I am
Korean makes good tasting spice that is also hot
That’s how it do be workin in the instant ramen department
Is the discussion still about Overwatch?
I could do with some spicy food.
Yeah dude decay really popped for dallas 
Rip
Dallas is like a sinking cruise liner
And decay is the last lifeboat trying to tug it along
Let's see if the new coaching staff can turn stuff around.
Did they pick up a new coach or is a lower coach just now stepping up?
I think a lower coach is stepping in for now
Lower coach is stepping up. But I'm sure it's just interim.
Ah ok
Boston need help. Feels bad looking at them.
They cant be saved
For Every Patriots there's an Uprising I guess.
Jerry and Myungbong are pulling so much weight. Maybe Aero can go there.
Fusions as well. I really feel sad for him. Hid face during and after every game.
They need better
Who's fusions?
the MT for Boston
Thx
Well i mean you can't say fusions is pulling so much weight
His orisa is extremely lackluster
Jerry Myungbong Punk are pulling the weight
Maybe they just need the right coaches. Individually, they're all really good. The need the right coach IMO. Aero maybe?
Better than what they have now.
No lmao
and individually, they're not all good
fusions can only play rein
and their supports + chex
are ... really bad
Myungbong is one of their supports.
Nai as.... coach ? 👀 even though he said he is mechanically not great
Chex , Halo are awful
Fusions is awful on anything but rein
Jerry hasn't even been that great tbh
Myung is fine, halo isn't, jerry is good, punk is fine, colourhex seems to be bad at the right things and good at the wrong ones
Fusions was a goats meta player
I guarantee there will be teams dropping out
As their orgs / parent companys wont fund them anymore
Great
There are teams in Contenders who would love to take the spot
Would raise the skill ceiling as well
Its like 30m for an owl spot
contenders teams cant afford that
Or
Owners of Fusion can just buy a second spot

You know, like, having multiple teams
C9 already tried to sell off their spot
SEN already split from LAG
NRG owner said OWL was a bad investment
LG is just shite .. rip titans
About NRG is not what I read. It was something else. Can't invest in both OWL and I believe Call of Duty or something
No they said in the interview specifically
"OWL wasnt a good investment"
Can someone explain like if a team drops out of owl what happens?
the team org or the members
if you want an example of members, then there's vancouver titans
Org
😂 mb
i don't think there's been an example of an org falling apart
but i'd assume new management will take place
What about team
Kk ty
np
are all members of the old titans in a team now?
Jehong didn't quit
he is taking a break til next season
Fissure and Seominsoo didn't get teams too
wjat valorant team
then had the Titians saga
@karmic grotto dallas’s benched players
too bad he seems he seriously wanted to prove himself hopefully he can do so next season
SMS said he had offers early on but he was too busy drinking
probably and hopefully was joking
Hopefully
I mean I don’t have a clip I just remeber it
Seominsoo: I haven’t like received a bunch of offers, I’m just gonna drink. But there are also ppl who rly support me, and I’d like to play and work hard for those ppl, but there rly aren’t opportunities to do so... https://t.co/IU2ZytE0HB
156
he said he hasn't received tho
yh his hero pool a bit funky
If my superpower was invisibility, standing in rooms of teams to find out what's going down might be one of my first action.
Once again, I don't know much of what happened but I know this- Decay was chill and great to work with in @LAGladiators https://t.co/GfR0aGqbpq
621
hmm Dallas
fishy fishy
do they play countdown cup with the genji nerfs
Hagopeun as General Director of Busan Wave
🤔
According to surefour one of his teams said "he is not allowed to be depressed" so either Gladiators or Defiant have beaten Vancouver titans in being the worst org in owl
That sounds like a Defaint thing
yeah idk if gladiators would pull that
but its still possible he hasn't said which org did it
didn’t defiant also dunk half their roster last year
something like that
I'm more leading towards defiant just because he doesn't seem as happy on defiant as he was on GLA but then again no one knows for sure
Dallas are decaying and the rascals won't even tell us the effect it'll have

According to surefour one of his teams said "he is not allowed to be depressed" so either Gladiators or Defiant have beaten Vancouver titans in being the worst org in owl
@loud yoke when did he say this
It was on stream last night
which is a clip of his stream

We cant say its defiant or glads
he doesnt say its an owl team
doesnt owl have regulations for players' health?
Did he say it was an owl team
He was already talking about stuff he could say about the league but he’d have to be vague
If he didnt say it was an owl team, stop speculating
But that’s what he said
arguing that him not being able to say it specifically equates to speculating is stupid
Yea Rawkus to faze has been known for a while
4 owl players + marved
I’m new to owl, is london spitfire a good team?
do they have any idea how bad his positioning is
Kinda
Oh who’s like the best player in spitfire rn lol
that I do not know
I hear good things about Glister, schwi and Bernar
Wait profit is not in spitfire anymore?
whole old team was changed
C9 like money
Meet the 4th member of our Professional Valorant Roster...
Welcome to FaZe Clan, @KING_BABYBAY
📺 Presented by @NissanUSA | #FaZeUp https://t.co/rCzRES4LXX
Oh who’s like the best player in spitfire rn lol
@balmy wolf
Best? Glister
Good? All players
So what are like the teams that are performing rlly bad this season
does rawkus have a vid?
The teams that are really bad this season or just rn?
Some teams have been really bad but only some are bad rn
who is the awper of the two of them? probably corey
does rawkus have a vid?
@digital cloud they haven't announced him yet
This season
What about this season
Royal is too nixe
nice
Justice is improving but still bad
Titans is improving but still bad
Shockwave is cute and good tho soo 😅
Then you also have Justice Outlaws Fuel Titans Defiant Hunters who’ve been pretty bad
Titans used to be great didn't they
But Boston takes the cake
Never got to see that
Before entire roster released lol
Wtf happened there
Luminosity cant treat their teams right
I mean hunters are getting better ig
No
Owners of Titans are a bunch of American/Canadian guys who don’t know how to manage a team full of Koreans in America
They had a very specific meta
Hunters seem good to me but they play off meta every time
ameng dunked on bumper at his peak
They are really good at that off meta strat they always play
so ameng is good
bumper was a mega feeder
yeah, but his style worked with his team
Ball Zarya is actually really good for Chengdu so they did good
he was good though
Bumper fed because he knew his team could back him up
He wasn't really good tbf, the rest of his team were just cracked
He wouldn’t feed on other teams if he didn’t know that
And what teams are on top of the league rn
Shanghai Shock Paris
Charge
Charge can and Fusion can be
Charge is
https://twitter.com/FrighteIN/status/1278513331343708162?s=19
This guy tryna shittalk them
whilst cheating
I mean the shot at the beginning was a little sus but otherwise
on the 2nd guy he snapped to his head through the box
That clip demonstrates why valiant and Cs go look boring to me
Just sitting there pointing at a door
Sleep
I mean, it is a very technically challenging game
but yeah, cs sort of bores me rather quickly
🐢
Rawkus back to Faze
That's valorant -_-
Shock is on a different level to fusion
I just wish some teams lived up to their potential
Fusion can
But they are just not doing it
Bro Glads took fusion to 5
yh but like
Carpe hadnt been awakened
but then it was a gg
Fusion just kinda slow to adapt
but once they did it was a smoke
last time shock played philly it was a brutal stomp
And shock nearly beat paris who was the best team for the meta in the summer showdown
It's weird to see philly beating shock really
I knew shock would win but not by such a massive margin
it was a massive stomp for the first 2 maps and by the time it was the third it was too late
Last map was very close but shock won out
yh he’s probs mad after last loss

i wonder if philly could mirror the comp paris used against them, genji/mccree, carpe’s mccree is nuts and id give eqo’s genji the edge against whoever shock plays on genji
anyone heard of this?
no
its a full thread
Yes
But ans on the widow...
What are the most likely mvp candidates
5 finalists
Hanbin
Rookie of the year
idk about void
if someone was to win it for dragons
It should be fleta
that's just me doe
yeah
and also
True
Alarm for ROTY maybe
there's so many good rookies
Cr0ng could yoink it
its insane
Nah
striker?
Smurf is a good shout
SFS are too good that none of them seem good lmao
I don't think anyone would win it for shock
yes
if anyone would
I think it would be viol2t
I mean I think he's best bap by far
Viol2ts bap
Idk doe
Is just
He is dps bap
anyway if fusion has a good tournament run
Tbh
I think carpe's mvp case is very strong
I think carpe will end up as mvp
got all the nuts stats
just because he stands out so much in a top tier team
I doubt sparkle would win any of the 2 cause he start halfway through
And lip as rookie of the year
like maybe sharing spotlight with alarm a bit
next year maybe
Eh
but that's not gonna happen
See
If he played more
for all season
Then yeah
also genji meta
I can't see him being mvp
really favored them
Mano actually deserves it
he kinda got robbed last year ngl
for nomination
lowkey best and most consistent player on nyxl
for like 2 seasons
Sinatraa really just came in and said ill have that
I think
He's the most consistent player in OWL
If carpe didnt have a shitty 2019
Him too
Nyxl are always almost top dogs
Then they fail
Miserably
No i meant like
They have so much potential
To really be at the top
This season
Has just been weird as hell
Idk
Carpe for mvp
And im happy
He really deserves it
He's so good
People kind of forgot about him because of the new rookies that came in
Like Lip
I don’t believe MVP is clear cut yet
If Philly wins Countdown
Then I’d strongly consider Carpe
Bc you have players that have won titles on good teams too like Fleta Shu Smurf Moth Choi Viol2t Twilight
If any team wins a tourney more than once they will probably have the MVP candidate
Or if Philly finally wins one
I’m going to go with Smurf or Viol2t from the Shock
I think it should be Carpe
Because MVP literally means most valuable
Philly would be no where
Near as good without Carpe
I think Sparkle, it's possible
I don't think so. He came in too late in the season.
Paris needed him to win to be fair but compared to some of the rest he was blessed by a very fortunate 2 week meta
Meanwhile some of these contenders have been toiling for weeks to give their team a leg up
I think Hanbin can be MVP or ROTY, he is very very good on all off-tank, he is clutch on so many action and help Paris so much. From his first matches to his last matches he stay at an insane level
Chipsas has more kills per 10 then sparkle😂
So many ppl can be ROTY thats an hard choice imo
@hidden vault for reasons ms I just said, he benefitted from meta changes for a couple of weeks and has much hype around him for that, fair enough but other players have spent much longer carrying their teams against the odds
there are rookies that have cases for mvp
but just like how jjanu and twilight were mvp candidates but they were also rookies
sp9rk1e doesnt deserve MVP and especially not ROTY
as it wouldnt be a full representation of the best player all year
He's not even eligible for roty
super ROTY
Agree
@hidden vault for reasons ms I just said, he benefitted from meta changes for a couple of weeks and has much hype around him for that, fair enough but other players have spent much longer carrying their teams against the odds
Thank you for the explanation
super ROTY
Is he still rookie lmao
Sparkle isn't even the my favorite for DPS roty
Leave, Yaki, or LIP would all be ahead of him IMO
even ans tbh
roty?
i could see it
dude popped in from ladder and proceeded to be one of the best widows in the league
but someone like alarm I think would deserve roty over ans
post w/ all the rookies ^
Dps would be Yaki/ANS/Lip imo
for tank its def cr0ng/hanbin
Corey, ZachaREEE, Marved, Babybay...
& @Rawkus.
Meet the 5th and final member of our Professional Valorant Roster, joining us to finalize the FaZe Clan lineup making our debut in this weekend's #FaZeInvitational!
📺 Presented by @NissanUSA | #FaZeUp https://t.co/K69HrDWnPv
does rawkus have a vid?
@digital cloud there ya go ^
Its not even a montage
and the clips shown arent even that nice ...
LEAVE?
bruh
Leave has been extremely underwhelming
only recently has he started picking things up
yeah I think cr0ng hanbin alarm
The video almost makes him not look bad
Almost
Corey can probably carry the team on his own though
I don’t see him being good in Valorant with how trash he was in OWL
But perhaps the games are different enough
his positioning is really questionable
Corey can probably carry the team on his own though
@digital cloud cant solo carry in val
- marved is very very good too
zacharee is okay ..
Yep i don't understand the choice of clips, there are less beautiful than other's clips. I think rawkus did so much better
@edgy tinsel didn't wardell carry tsm
I mean clips of rawkus are less beautiful than clips of Corey or Babybay. I'm absolutly not a pro of Valorant but imo i find that Rawkus' clips are not as spectacular and pretty as clips of Corey or babybay
no , everybody on tsm is very good and all puts in equal effort
vs sentinels?
yes
yes
Remember when ppl said that overwatch player can't aim and can't beacame pro on Valorant. Actually 6 player in Valorant and that probably not ending 
Sinatraa has some of the best aim in val ive ever saw ngl
I've never really watched valorant tbh
Dafran...
lets grow dude

Today, we informed Jonathan “HarryHook” Tejedor Rua of his release from the Dallas Fuel as a result of player misconduct. We thank him for his four years with the organization and wish him the best in the future.
Misconduit ????
someone know what he did ?
Nope
Oh
@hollow zodiac @opaque ginkgo ^
I really didn’t want to come forward about this but, because ppl want to know: this isn’t isolated behavior, unfortunately.
I attempted to bring this up to him and these were some of his responses. https://t.co/wYfhjRx3AF
174
An excuse to release him faster
If they released Harry over this they should have released taimou years ago
they did lmao
