to play around widow

silk frost
#

DOES SHOCKWAVE HAVE 60% ALREADY

karmic grotto
#

widow OP

silk frost
#

oh my god he'll have another sights

karmic grotto
#

chipsa

true hound
#

Yes

clear crane
#

i dont think provide shuda been in OWL

#

but he deserved an answer to compete in T2

#

im surprised blizzard never replied

edgy tinsel
#

what did he actually say

#

i forgot

clear crane
#

racist toxic in discord

true hound
#

That was super scrappy wtf

tropic herald
#

BQBsBOB

karmic grotto
#

lmao

#

bob wins them the fight

#

if bob never existed

#

he would not cap points

gloomy vector
#

not bad for titans'

true hound
#

shockwave

#

is a god gamer

gloomy vector
#

no

clear crane
#

damnnnn

#

no emp for u

gloomy vector
#

he just looks great because hes on a bad team

tropic herald
#

Mayhem are still good I just think Titans off genji makes them a lot better

edgy tinsel
#

but 3 years ago? @clear crane , like its just cancel culture

tropic herald
#

Genji is their one fatal flaw

clear crane
#

which patch is this

tropic herald
#

Genji nerfs

gloomy vector
#

the one before the sig nerf

tropic herald
#

What were the other changes

#

Let me check

clear crane
#

orisia nerfs as well?

tropic herald
#

No

karmic grotto
#

why exacty does it take 2 weeks to patch pro launcher

tropic herald
#

There’s no other changes

karmic grotto
#

it's just changing variables

#

like hotfixes

tropic herald
#

I think they want to keep competitive integrity but they should still patch bugs

clear crane
#

I dont think its cancel culture since almost everyone in T2 is speaking up for him. Its Blizzard/OWL image. He doesn't bring any positive money value and hes not someone fans will tune in just to watch for unlike XQC/Dafran/Sinatraa who actually bring in money.

cobalt spoke
#

who?

edgy tinsel
#

i mean blizzard cancelling

tropic herald
#

I find it weird that Yaki only chooses dva

edgy tinsel
#

Like its been 3 years

clear crane
#

Its money

#

and PR image

#

thats all there is to it

edgy tinsel
#

Then sinatraa shouldn't have been allowed in lol

#

or dafran

#

or xQc

clear crane
#

They brought in money

karmic grotto
#

lulw

tropic herald
#

Sinatraa and Dafran and xQc have money

clear crane
#

thats priority number 1

tropic herald
#

What is this overlay

#

I hate it

clear crane
#

no one cares about a main support

#

unless hes like Moth /LJG level

tropic herald
#

Damn wtf Shockwave

edgy tinsel
#

SHOCKWAVE HAHAHA

silk frost
#

NOOB

dreamy cave
#

"noob"

silk frost

N O O B

edgy tinsel

NOOB

dreamy cave
#

blindsided

clear crane
#

They need to ask each of the players to take a proper pic

#

wiht their jerseys lol

#

this photoshop looks so bad

karmic grotto
#

This sombra widowmaker is a fk odd comp

tropic herald
#

It makes sense

#

Sombra for the dices

#

Dives

dreamy cave
#

i understand why shockwave is playing widow

tropic herald
#

Widow for the one tap

#

Also Volskaya very good for widow

clear crane
#

ooooof 99% trans wen dead

true hound
#

oof

clear crane
#

and florida still wins the fight

tropic herald
#

Florida win the map gr

true hound
#

mayhem kited well and bought enough time for Yaki to get 2 picks

#

gr

tropic herald
#

Gargoyles cock

#

Massive

deep wolf
#

😔

true hound
#

Pogwave 😩

clear crane
#

So this patch is strictly genji nerfs

tropic herald
#

Yes

dreamy cave
#

idk man. i feel like the dps picks just didnt go well together

clear crane
#

and then the next patch they will play on is the one with brig nerfs that just went live

tropic herald
#

Which doesn’t even matter Bc he’s banned

#

The patch that went live yesterday is live for playoffs

clear crane
#

hmm i wonder wat the meta wud be for that

tropic herald
#

Titans had a good comp they just didn’t play right

#

And Yaki echo was good at pressuring Shockwave

dreamy cave
#

the dps have little damage output and i did like the fact that they widow ult into sombra ult. its just it took so long to build it up. and shockwave had to basically 1v2. carcar is the only one brawling with the tanks.

karmic grotto
#

miscomplay

dreamy cave
#

i know dalton usually plays tracer, genji, macree. but none of those really work in that instance u know. maybe shockwave should have moved over to ash. but he was doing pretty well. so idk.

#

#blindsided

edgy tinsel
#

really good point a take??

#

lmao ok

dreamy cave
#

he threw his ult away

clear crane
#

BQB can easily be one of the top candidates for most improved player

#

but i feel its hard to give it to a DPS when they were stuck in Zarya jail for the majority of last year lol

balmy wolf
#

Vancouver supports

edgy tinsel
#

are awful

silk frost
#

I think Roolf is alright

#

just not onMoira

edgy tinsel
#

carcar is trash

karmic grotto

small indie company btw

gloomy vector
#

honestly that one is new for me ive seen players dc but not specs

clear crane
#

do they hve to restart all of it lmao

karmic grotto
#

no

gloomy vector
#

no its just the specs

karmic grotto
#

dont know

clear crane
#

but isnt it his server

gloomy vector
#

oh is it

clear crane
#

cause the players just stopped as well

karmic grotto
#

why does dalton look like logix

gloomy vector
#

i thought it was just his end

#

not like a server end

karmic grotto
#

huh?

clear crane
#

i would think they wuda switched to a different spec den. eh who knows

karmic grotto
#

why do they have nepal

gloomy vector
#

well they players stoped because of pasue

karmic grotto
#

SCRIPT

#

Why is Nepal there

#

if Mayhem can win this match to get 3-1

clear crane
#

obs ppl have left the game before and it never paused. idk

#

wud be pretty funny tho if it just all crashed

gloomy vector
#

this mobile "gameplay" looks like bots playing it

clear crane
#

but im guessing they have some timestamp they can go back to

gloomy vector
#

ill be honest if its shock v dragons i dont know who i want to win

karmic grotto
#

I am rooting for Dragons since I find Void playing better than Choihyobin

gloomy vector
#

i mean i guess shock for choi and violet

tropic herald
#

Given where the meta is heading I foresee dragons taking it

raw ermine
#

if shock and dragons play

#

we all win

silk frost
#

WHY DOES MUSIC SLAP NOW

gloomy vector
#

the only reason ive havent watched apac is timing its sad even tho all of the final matches are gonna be in the morning

true hound
#

nerfs pog

earnest leaf
#

@raw ermine so long as one doesn't roll the other lol

true hound
#

watch philly go to the finals and lose again

earnest leaf
#

because honestly that's a possibility

#

That one region plays so differently they get rolled or roll the other

silk frost
#

btw the movement speed from 20-30 doesn't mean meters per second, it's a weird overwatch measurement system

raw ermine
#

true

clear crane
#

Brig got the same health/shield as with Zen now

#

hmmm

karmic grotto
#

?

#

what are you talking about

gloomy vector
#

wait so everyone know the finals will be timing for asia region right i found out some people didnt know that

clear crane
#

makes sense

gloomy vector
#

so like usa is in the morning

clear crane
#

time to stay up

tropic herald
#

clear crane
#

tropic herald

edgy tinsel

5pm is the first apac game in korea

balmy wolf

hot heart
#

Mmmm monkey

weak bolt
#

This is so much effort for a cookie I'd eat in like 5s

gloomy vector
#

yeah but the cutters can be used forever

weak bolt
#

True

vagrant jacinth
#

what, how come hari got roles and i didnt
@dreamy cave lmao no idea, i did used to be active here but ages ago. maybe that's why?

next mesa
#

dreamy cave

gloomy vector

true hound
#

@next mesa u horndog

#

obsessing over anime girls

next mesa
#

only mai san

weak bolt
#

Yeah looks like their whole OWL server died

dreamy cave
#

@vagrant jacinth ive been here since like late stage 1? or maybe last year stage 1?

vagrant jacinth
#

huh

true hound
#

o

weak bolt
#

Guessing they had to get the teams to bring the game through to the right stage of the map, get the right times, and reset all ults

vagrant jacinth
#

that's weird

true hound
#

u can probably ask modmail or something

karmic grotto
#

@true hound imagine cringe

true hound
#

lul

tropic herald
dreamy cave
#

dalton just wont swap

karmic grotto
#

neither does shockwave

nova cosmos
#

didnt reach the end

gloomy vector
#

i mean hes doing well

karmic grotto
#

or any of them

deep wolf
#

wInNaBlE

gloomy vector
#

or i mean ok

nova cosmos
#

if it goes to 2-2

#

ok

gloomy vector
#

but i just dont think shockwave is cutting it

nova cosmos
#

i dont think they will

dreamy cave
#

COME ON TITANS

gloomy vector
#

i was wondering how he died there

#

i cant tell if shockwave is bad or just the other widows in the league just overshadow him

dreamy cave
#

when shred dives in, carcar has too aslo just to keep him up

fickle flicker
#

i cant tell if shockwave is bad or just the other widows in the league just overshadow him
@gloomy vector potentially both

dreamy cave
#

thatll end up being 2 kills, 3 if ksa goes to help

gloomy vector
#

yeah both makes sense

weak bolt
#

Wouldn't say he's bad, but he's going to struggle more due to whole team difference

fickle flicker
#

true

true hound
#

pogwave?

#

pogwave is super good imo

#

man can do work on the widow

#

if u can do well on a shit team against good ones ur good

gloomy vector
#

yeah this is a gg

#

i dont see a comebcak

dreamy cave
#

their theam just dosnt have the damage to kill the mayhem

#

they have too much sustain and block

#

gg

weak bolt
#

Playing the lucio/moira just isn't working really

gloomy vector
#

i dont think dalton is the bad pick here its the shockwave pick or at least thats what i understand'

fickle flicker
#

that's true, and shockwave isn't getting the picks they need

weak bolt
#

Seems a very weird comp overall. Bit of dive, bit of rush, and then a widow

true hound
#

his back broke

nova cosmos
#

atleast they got a point in

true hound
#

its only natural to perform less

nova cosmos
#

i guess

raw ermine
#

gg

gloomy vector
#

loud

fickle flicker
#

none of them did particularly bad, they just got outplayed

weak bolt
#

Got to face it, it's kind of a Top 8 team vs a contenders team

fickle flicker
#

sad but true

gloomy vector
#

i still rather see hero bans than pools

clear crane
#

the team tat set the fastest loss

gloomy vector
#

they did

fickle flicker
#

are their bans this week?

gloomy vector
#

against who

#

yes

#

bans this week and next

#

next is final

fickle flicker
#

bans in final? DansGame

weak bolt
#

No bans in finals

fickle flicker
#

oh good

weak bolt
#

But Finals will be on the new patch

gloomy vector
#

next week is the final week before finals

#

like i mean regular season

clear crane
#

??

fickle flicker
#

F

clear crane
#

no way the week after next is already finals lol

weak bolt
#

yeah next week is the last week of regular season

fickle flicker
#

gone so quickly

gloomy vector
#

see errrrrrrror understands

vagrant jacinth
#

yep

#

fuel gonna bin the next match

gloomy vector
#

yeah i think it will be glads

#

idk

weak bolt
#

Playoffs do start on 3rd Sept though, so It is only like 3 weeks away

dreamy cave
#

glads should win

#

oge plays his old team

gloomy vector
#

0 and 4 LUL

weak bolt
#

Glad's should in theory be good, OGE on winson, space on Dva. But it's Gladiators, they could get 3-0'd in record time

dreamy cave
#

nahh,

gloomy vector
#

yeah maybe i put too much faith in space but i do think they take this

dreamy cave
#

biggoose will carry

clear crane
#

o wait soe is back?

gloomy vector
#

yeah lul shes been backk

clear crane
#

i missed the first part of the stream so didnt see

#

hope her father is doing okay

gloomy vector
#

oh ok

weak bolt
#

I assume she's having to prioritise visa

vagrant jacinth
#

oh maybe

#

i didn't think she'd be back so soon

dreamy cave
#

something happened to her dad?

vagrant jacinth
#

yeah, he was in an accident. hospitalised in switzerland iirc

raw ermine
#

yes

#

She is having trouble with visas

#

so it might be difficult for her to do stuff in OWL til the year's end

gloomy vector
#

oh it was an accident i didnt actually know what happened

dreamy cave
#

damn. yeah hope everything works out.

gloomy vector
#

what a weird name swingchip

#

ive seen it before but still weird

dreamy cave
#

whats the helix yellow thing about?

raw ermine
#

its a regular role thing only

#

idk the point of it

vagrant jacinth
#

people with regular role can pick 1 of 3 colours to use

raw ermine
#

Gullard Purple Helix yellow and Viskhar blue

vagrant jacinth
#

just to add a bit of colour to the server

#

i'd guess

#

i like it

gloomy vector
#

who won last years 1v1 all star match

swift moth
#

me without color because sadge

gloomy vector
#

the widowmaker 1v1

swift moth
#

diem

gloomy vector
#

traded to the desk LUL

#

wait decay is on the justice now?

weak bolt
#

yeha they signed him

#

Think they used the clause that teams need 7 players able to travel, and because of Lullsish they don't have that. He's only signed till end of season though

gloomy vector
#

oh ok

#

i didnt know what happened to him so i just googled him

weak bolt
#

He got Fuel'd

gloomy vector
#

omg this stall

raw ermine
#

oh

#

damnnnn

#

???????????????????/

weak bolt
#

Birdring wtf

raw ermine
#

They nanoed the mercy

deep wolf
#

widow op zzz

silk frost
#

YOOO

gloomy vector
#

how was that flipped

fickle flicker
weak bolt
#

Birdring killed 4, and Fuel were meming

true hound
#

damn

balmy wolf
#

How???

silk frost
#

because he is back

gloomy vector
#

notes nose bothers me for whatever reason

silk frost
#

...that's mean

weak bolt
#

At least Fuel are choking early now and not leaving it till final map?

gloomy vector
#

i mean they still have time for that xD

#

i dont play phara why is doha punching in the air

#

is it to keep air time

weak bolt
#

Animation cancel on reload I think

raw ermine
#

yeah

#

lots of characters do that

vagrant jacinth
#

holy fuck

silk frost
#

birdring is so GOO-nevermind

vagrant jacinth
#

deadeye kills

silk frost
#

birdring is a monster

inland pawn
#

CLAPPED

vagrant jacinth
#

birdring jeez

gloomy vector
#

oh no titans vs boston is next week

vagrant jacinth
#

that's gonna be...something

gloomy vector
#

i was just trying to see glads final matches

#

and they have ok matches

vagrant jacinth
#

who they got?

gloomy vector
#

boston tomorrow

#

and then next week is mayhem and valient

next mesa
#

sleeper

#

just inject dragons vs shock into my veins

#

ffs

gloomy vector
#

oh and reign i didnt see them

#

next week they play every day dang

vagrant jacinth
#

vs valiant and atlanta will be close

#

beat boston and lose against mayhem

gloomy vector
#

yeah thats why i said ok matches

vagrant jacinth
#

just inject dragons vs shock into my veins
@next mesa we ALL need this

next mesa
#

make it a drug

#

fuck

gloomy vector
#

i mean they both could get knocked out round 2/3

vagrant jacinth
#

don't do drugs, unless it's shock v dragons

gloomy vector
#

i forget how the braket works

next mesa
#

haha

tropic herald
#

Birdring cracked

next mesa
#

that's funny @gloomy vector

tropic herald
next mesa
#

imagine thinking that the finals wont be

#

dragons vs shock

#

wait

#

its 2 brackets

gloomy vector
#

i mean it could happen

next mesa
#

each region right

vagrant jacinth
#

NASTY

next mesa
#

2 loser brackets

gloomy vector
#

na 1 vs asia 2 and na 2 vs asia 2

#

those are they first matches

silk frost
#

GOOOOOOSE

next mesa
#

if they never lose

#

is it possible

#

I forgot how the bracket works

gloomy vector
#

yeah i had to look it up xD

weak bolt
#

I don't even dare predict the playoffs, who knows what the meta will actually be

next mesa
#

dive

#

dive already being played now

weak bolt
#

I'd expect dive, but could see Rush comps being popular again

gloomy vector
#

yeah i dont wanna predict that but its really is most likely gonna be shock v dragons unless there is an unlikely upset

vagrant jacinth
#

a repeat of summer showdown ye

weak bolt
#

and is it Sombra dive, Genji dive, Doomfist (lol)

gloomy vector
#

lul what is this match\

silk frost
#

oh my god lol

next mesa
#

no way it's genji dive

vagrant jacinth
#

poor gamsu

next mesa
#

I could see sombra ashe/widow

silk frost
#

I honestly think double shield lives

next mesa
#

maybe tracer

#

how can double shield live

#

if dive is already being played now

#

and its going to get a lot weaker

weak bolt
#

Double shield won't live, but I could see Rush comps being popular on a few maps

silk frost
#

halt is weaker, but they're the best tanks to just live

next mesa
#

maybe on that nepal thing

silk frost
#

which has been a huge factor or months

next mesa
#

not really

#

sigma will have a lot less sustain

#

barrier nerf and

vagrant jacinth
#

my money would be on dive yeah

next mesa
#

grasp nerf

silk frost
#

I think some hog/cree stuff will come out on top ngl

next mesa
#

question is

weak bolt
#

Maps like Kings Row, Hanamura, Volskya I could see quite a few teams trying rush

next mesa
#

winston zarya or winston dva

gloomy vector
#

this is why i think they are enjoyable to watch

silk frost
#

double bubble was a double shield counterpick

#

it won't take over

#

either winston d.va or rein hog

#

or rein sig

weak bolt
#

I'd imagine winston zarya is more sustainable. You get a win condition in a grav, and I'd say more protection vs a counter dive

gloomy vector
#

shock like playing weird comps sometimes so i wouldnt expect the "meta comp"

vagrant jacinth
#

i really don't like this fuel comp

silk frost
#

not really, since bubble is an 8 second cooldown and lasts 2 seconds, meanwhile DM is much more fluid in usage and she has mobility

#

and more reliable damage

#

AND a better ult defensively

vagrant jacinth
#

lmao did birdring drop a london spray?

silk frost
#

did he

weak bolt
#

Probably still has it bound, lots of players have their ex teams sprays

next mesa
#

did you just say bomb is better than grav

#

omegalol

silk frost
#

defensively

next mesa
#

so

#

grav > bomb

silk frost
#

did you just ignore the most important word in the sentence?

next mesa
#

by a long shot

vagrant jacinth
#

what a lad, always rated him

next mesa
#

why does it matter that it's better defensively

#

also it's probably also worse defensively

silk frost
#

that's what the tank meta has been for like 2 years

#

defensive play (goats in non-goats mirrors at least)

#

also D.va has way better peels

next mesa
#

doesn't change the fact that zarya winston is being ran over dva winston

silk frost
#

as a double shield counter pick

next mesa
#

as of right now

#

no

#

a lot of mirrors

weak bolt
#

I'd say any team with a top zarya will likely run it over a dva. Probably only see dva from teams without a great zarya

next mesa
#

does dragons have a good zarya

#

void

silk frost
#

void is ok

next mesa
#

I know void's dva is

#

muy bien

silk frost
#

his d.va is way better

next mesa
#

can fleta play

#

zarya

silk frost
#

I just think d.va does way more in a dive mirror than zarya

next mesa
#

possibly

vagrant jacinth
#

void's zarya is pretty damn good

next mesa
#

we'll see

weak bolt
#

Zarya enables winston a lot more than Dva currently

#

Bubble stops stuns etc. DM doesn't

silk frost
#

like better peels for your main tank and for your backline, you don't have to put NEARLY as many resources into her, and she's a lot faster

weak bolt
#

If Brig totally drops out of meta, maybe less of an issue

silk frost
#

she probably will

gloomy vector
#

ok a weird comp that works is hog winston but it only works because of the buffs

silk frost
#

hog d.va may be better

#

he doesn't do enough as an off tank tbh

weak bolt
#

Hog winston will never work in any top level game really

next mesa
#

I dont see hog being meta

#

even with the buffs

#

hog winston goes horribly

silk frost
#

idk all the tanks are super bad

next mesa
#

together

#

no synergy

gloomy vector
#

i know i want to see it as a match but it wont

silk frost
#

every tank is garbo except for rein and sig and maybe d.va

weak bolt
#

Only way I can see hog playing is if a team goes like super anti-dive. Like Orisa/Hog/Torb/Brig/Mcree or something

sullen berry
#

Hog is simple, doesn't depend on other tanks

silk frost
#

here's the thing with that tho

raw ermine
#

...

gloomy vector
#

omg

vagrant jacinth
#

LMAO

gloomy vector
#

yes

raw ermine
#

rip

vagrant jacinth
#

FUEL

silk frost
#

the meta will either be brawl OR dive

gloomy vector
#

space play of the game

sullen berry
#

The Fuel9

vagrant jacinth
silk frost
#

bunker's probably out

next mesa
#

I dont see rein being played

#

except on

#

map specific

#

idk doe

gloomy vector
#

yeah hes not a main stay

next mesa
#

what do I know

silk frost
#

he might just because he plays with hog better, and hog will gigaclap monkey now

vagrant jacinth
#

yes

next mesa
#

perhaps

#

and dva peels better than zarya

silk frost
#

and with how much anti-dive still exists, you may be able to do it

next mesa
#

for winston

#

vs hog

silk frost
#

yeah

#

like a rein/hog/cree/reaper/ana/zen may be meta for being good vs dive AND having incredible DPS

gloomy vector
#

i dont think cree is the best choice there but idk

weak bolt
#

Widow would destroy that comp

silk frost
#

widow should yeah

#

it'll probably be double sniper dive or that

next mesa
#

sombra widow

#

lip+diem baby

silk frost
#

depending on if you can prop up the reaper and zen to beat the snipers

gloomy vector
#

i hate double dive its so snoozer

next mesa
#

how

#

not as sleeper as double shield

silk frost
#

no brain all aim

sullen berry
#

sombra widow
Eileen happy 😊

gloomy vector
#

ive always found double dive boring

silk frost
#

I think the game is about to get way worse

#

double shield is evil, but it might've been a necessary evil

#

there's so much damage and there's nothing to stop it now

weak bolt
#

I'd like to see Monkey/Zarya/Ashe/Tracer/Zen/Bap style comps honestly. I'd be happy if that general setup was meta

gloomy vector
#

i just love see those sigma plays so maybe im bias

silk frost
#

dive zen bap does NOT work, as much as I wish it would

#

too vulnerable

#

sombra ez clap

weak bolt
#

What supports do you actually expect people to play in dive then?

silk frost
#

might have to be lucio zen ngl

gloomy vector
#

ana is good in dive

silk frost
#

ana zen or lucio zen

weak bolt
#

Lucio zen is not enough healing

silk frost
#

it wasn't in 2017 but it was the top meta comop

gloomy vector
#

i agree zen lucio is bad healing

silk frost
#

for a long time

#

it's not about the heals, it's about the peels

weak bolt
#

Ana Zen would be viable, but it's arguably more vunerable than Bap/Zen

silk frost
#

bap doesn't long range heal, he only heals in a clump

#

it can't work

#

either ana zen or lucio zen

gloomy vector
#

i guess but it leaves everyone weak in a way

silk frost
#

you have the ability to take quicker fights than almost any other comp

#

you could get a ball in there too if you want tbh

#

lucio zen ball may be good

weak bolt
#

Lucio zen ball? You a Chengdu coach?

gloomy vector
#

xD

silk frost
#

the thing is it's super fast

#

you can take insanely fast fights and outpace everything

weak bolt
#

Fast fights don't mean a lot if you just die because you have no healing

gloomy vector
#

but with ball zen lucio how much peel do you really have

#

i feel like youll just get bursted

clear crane
#

who needs peel. just kill them all derp

silk frost
#

lucio is all the peel you'd have

#

you would go like sombra tracer ball d.va, lucio there just to peel for zen

#

then everyone else is self sustain

#

honestly that was the meta for a LONG time, no heal no peel just kill

weak bolt
#

Perhaps 2 or 3 years ago before damage power creeps

silk frost
#

that's why the ball would be played, he needs 0 heals

#

just pop an orb on the d.va and that's all the healing the comp needs

#

sombra hacks some packs

#

it's a bit mad sciencey but what reasonably beats that comp now?

gloomy vector
#

like the burst damage seems way too high for it too work but idk its defiantly runnable

silk frost
#

Orisa can't pull ball which means it's harder to stun him

#

Sombra can do a number on it but then that falls into this exact comp

weak bolt
#

You'd just counter it with Bap/Zen/Ashe. Stuff would be dead before it even got close. Any map with even medium sightlines and it's dead

silk frost
#

what are the other 3 though?

#

you need something to stun ball or he's behind you pestering you all he wants

#

you need something to beat Sombra so she doesn't have free reign

gloomy vector
#

if you zen orb him hes dead pretty fast

weak bolt
#

You run a sombra of your own

silk frost
#

fair

vagrant jacinth
#

ball comp would wreck imo, but i don't think there's many teams that could run it properly

silk frost
#

yeah that's the thing I have with it

#

good ball play is so rare that you never see a proper ball who will play to a level where he won't be melted, but trust me, it's doable

vagrant jacinth
#

ball/zarya, ball goes in and bubble negates whatever cc he might face

gloomy vector
#

ball is the only tank i just dont understand how to play at all he is my worst tank

silk frost
#

and the d.va would be mainly focused on countering hacks, or you go zarya for that yeah

vagrant jacinth
#

plat chat were talking about it and it makes a lot of sense

gloomy vector
#

lul

vagrant jacinth
#

how does one stop ball?

silk frost
#

no rock

#

no pull

#

no easy kill

gloomy vector
#

idk i feel like dps can take care of him with a zen orb good enough

vagrant jacinth
#

dragons, chengdu and maybe london would look nice on it

weak bolt
#

Teams would likely adapt to beating a ball comp pretty quick

vagrant jacinth
#

do you think anyone in na could run a decent ball comp?

silk frost
#

Think about this: The moment 1 ball counter was locked out, NO ONE could beat chengdu

gloomy vector
#

i think my favorite tank line up is sig rein or at least for me

silk frost
#

that does get kinda clapped by the ball comp tbh

vagrant jacinth
#

a meta favouring chengdu would be hilarious af

weak bolt
#

Only NA teams I could see running a ball would be Valiant or Houston

silk frost
#

bro Fuel

vagrant jacinth
#

like it happened before

silk frost
#

Gamsu is a great ball

#

Chengdu could genuinely be the 2020 champions

vagrant jacinth
#

but everything else about fuel is big bad

silk frost
#

Doha plays a mean sombra

vagrant jacinth
#

that thought didn't even cross my mind until sideshow brought it up

weak bolt
#

Playoffs also have map picks, you can easily avoid maps Ball can work well

silk frost
#

Paintbrush could go mercy and Crimzo could go Zen

gloomy vector
#

remember this is overwatch they could throw random buffs and nerfs to change the meta in a bad way

vagrant jacinth
#

it would be the most chengdu thing ever

silk frost
#

what maps do Ball suck on

gloomy vector
#

is he good on horizon

weak bolt
#

Kings row, Junkertown

vagrant jacinth
#

it's fine and well having players to play heroes but they don't look in sync

silk frost
#

he's pretty nasty on kings actually

vagrant jacinth
#

yep yep

silk frost
#

but MIRROR JUST KILLED PAINTBRUSH

#

THE ANTI AIR MORTAR

vagrant jacinth
#

ooh no i wouldnt say kings row

gloomy vector
#

yeah hes looking godd rn

vagrant jacinth
#

lol

gloomy vector
#

good not god

vagrant jacinth
#

fuel need to cease with this pharah business

#

NUKED

weak bolt
#

Wonder if Fuel think Pharah will be good in the playoff meta and trying to practice it a bit

gloomy vector
#

i said this before and yall laughed at me i do think mirror could have been an mvp candidate if glads were better

#

where was that bob

raw ermine
#

LMAOOO

dreamy cave
#

i just wanna say. every time they dont play mirror on anubis they lose.

vagrant jacinth
#

he's good but i don't think mvp good

clear crane
#

rip

#

Peak Birdring is insane

weak bolt
#

Mirror is ok, but nowhere near mvp level

vagrant jacinth
#

birdring is nutty

gloomy vector
#

idk that just my perspective

#

also the amount of times bob wins fights

#

he is the real mvp

#

LUL

karmic grotto
raw ermine
#

gg

crude sinew
#

gg

vagrant jacinth
#

yep

#

expected

gloomy vector
#

yeah i said glads took this

#

but thats not an unexpected pick

#

but didnt someone say that fuel was gonna 3 0 them or nah

weak bolt
#

Fuel vs glads is one of those matches where either team could go 3-0

#

Depending on which chokes harder

gloomy vector
#

hes always so loud

forest raven
#

Glads always has the win con of birdring just popping off

vagrant jacinth
#

birdring popped tf tonight, lucky glads

tropic herald
#

Birdring can just turn on sometimes and be insane

gloomy vector
#

yeah they were really aggressive this match

weak bolt
#

When did they add Super to the MVP list? and why is Muma there LOL

gloomy vector
#

no that the all star match

forest raven
#

Imagine being any of the mixed roster western teams and missing out on picking up birdring

cobalt spoke
#

Dallas is the cock of owl suprPA suprSTA

tropic herald
#

@weak bolt earlier today they added a bunch more candidates

gloomy vector
#

for the all star match muma doesnt make sense

#

oh wait really

cobalt spoke
weak bolt
#

MVP Main Tank who got benched for a dps player

forest raven
#

Super did literally say on stream they forgot to add him for all stars

gloomy vector
#

yeah its all stars not mvp

cobalt spoke
#

Super actually saw play for his rein

gloomy vector
#

pepegas

cobalt spoke
#

Muma?

#

Who?

weak bolt
#

Yeah sorry all-stars, not mvp

gloomy vector
#

yeah i dont understand the muma all star pick

forest raven
#

Is meko in all stars now

weak bolt
#

He's listed now yeah

forest raven
#

Good

#

He's the best player on outlaws

weak bolt
#

Myunbong got added too for supports

vagrant jacinth
#

oh i'll have to look again

gloomy vector
#

yeah i have to revote not

#

now

#

was sparkle on there before?

vagrant jacinth
#

no large huge + super combo

#

no sparkle wasn't

weak bolt
#

All votes are hidden now too, so no way of knowing whos winning things

gloomy vector
#

also i saw jerry on there ZaryaLUL

vagrant jacinth
#

i don't think xzi and birdring were on there either?

gloomy vector
#

hey decay is in the washington jersey

#

nice

vagrant jacinth
#

yeah!

#

im doing my votes again rn

cobalt spoke
#

They should add bumper to washington

#

Washington's biggest problem is main tank anyway

vagrant jacinth
#

i can't not vote for soon, i love him

tropic herald
#

No Jjanu for Washington Sadge

#

The main issue for Washington rn is Roar

weak bolt
#

I'd expect Washington to make moves in off-season

tropic herald
#

Please get another main tank

#

Also look to get another main support

cobalt spoke
#

And bumper is main tank

weak bolt
#

I'd not be surprised if they make a move for someone like OGE

gloomy vector
#

i really dont know who to pick for dps NA

tropic herald
#

Do ANS

#

Widow 1v1s

vagrant jacinth
#

ans yes

gloomy vector
#

yeah i picked ans but it want 4 ppl

#

idk who

weak bolt
#

Vote Linkzr for all star, so he can actually play in a widow 1v1 finally

tropic herald
#

I think I did BQB

balmy wolf
#

Ans,Shockwave, Decay, and surefour/Logix

gloomy vector
#

ew shockwave

cobalt spoke
#

Roar is the worst main tank in the league
He might deserve the title, I heard he doesnt practice outside of scrims

vagrant jacinth
#

i did ans, birdring, agilities and soon

gloomy vector
#

actaully throw pick

balmy wolf
#

?

weak bolt
#

Roar vs Shredlock vs Muma is interesting for worst main tank

gloomy vector
#

i dont think hes adveage he just looks better because hes on a bad team

balmy wolf
#

What

cobalt spoke
#

Muma isnt that bad

forest raven
#

Washington should get MAG

vagrant jacinth
#

no babel for damage 😔

forest raven
#

And they'll actually be kinda competent

cobalt spoke
#

Sherlock has some good moments

forest raven
#

If they keep decay

tropic herald
#

I don’t think ShRedLock is that bad

#

I do think Muma and Roar are

weak bolt
#

Muma is ok at winston, everything else is kind of a throw

cobalt spoke
#

Roar is and actual lvp, least valuable player

tropic herald
#

Also Beast hasn’t been amazing either

gloomy vector
#

NA support was the ezest picks ever

weak bolt
#

MT is also the role you suffer on most if your team is performing badly

gloomy vector
#

same thing with NA tanks

cobalt spoke
#

Yea, moth twilight viol2t and 1 more

vagrant jacinth
#

crongs on the list now pog

gloomy vector
#

and alarm

balmy wolf
#

Houston is performing well. Hydration just can’t monkey or rein

#

Then they are fucked

weak bolt
#

I don't think I even did Twilight in my NA supports

rare magnet
#

sp9rk1e haksal super myonbong etc have been added to all star voting

gloomy vector
#

has profit been good this season

#

im just voting for people i know

weak bolt
#

Think I did Moth, Viol2t, Myunbong & Alarm

gloomy vector
#

i mean for asia

vagrant jacinth
#

i voted for players i like mostly

weak bolt
#

I just wanted to give Myunbong a chance at playing on a decent team for once in 2020

gloomy vector
#

support for asia is the hardest for me i only know 2 of them

#

off of name

vagrant jacinth
#

ah

gloomy vector
#

well and anamo but i dont like him

vagrant jacinth
#

there's a lot of good ones though

#

lmao

#

yeah

#

nyxl booo

gloomy vector
#

oh atually i didnt see idk i know him somewhat

vagrant jacinth
#

i picked guxue, bernar, fearless and crong

gloomy vector
#

yeah bernar and guxue was ez pick for me

weak bolt
#

You left out Ameng? 😮

gloomy vector
#

ok cyall tomorroe

vagrant jacinth
#

i was really tempted for the ball potential

#

apac was harder to pick for

#

i was gonna drop guxue for ameng

weak bolt
#

All stars comps are always 1 big meme, so adding in a ball will only make it more fun 😄

vagrant jacinth
#

i totally should've done ameng lmaoo

weak bolt
#

I hope they're allowed to ditch 2-2-2 for that game. I'd love to see some Goats vs Ball 4dps style comps again

vagrant jacinth
#

Fuuck

#

The possibilities

cobalt spoke
#

If they ditched 222 that would be so fun

#

And then if they went to the last patch

silk frost
#

or they bring in the roadhog pigpen change please

edgy tinsel
digital cloud
#

Kephrii?

#

I suggest ignoring him

feral zodiac
#

hard to pick between fearless and guxue

#

both are gods

hot heart
#

Fearless is the best winston in the league imo

#

But barely

#

Like barely

silk frost
#

I think Guxue is milimeters ahead

hot heart
#

They're all on the same level

#

Smurf guxue fearless

#

On the winston

#

But

#

For experience guxue is the best

#

He's been consulting the best winston in OW forever now

#

Until ofc smurf and fearless pulled it out

feral zodiac
#

mano has a solid winston

hot heart
#

But is it on the level of fearless guxue and smurf?

feral zodiac
#

not sure, i haven't watched guxue or smurf winston inna while

tulip shore
#

Consulting the best Winston

#

Who's that ?

feral zodiac
#

guxue

#

🙂

tulip shore
#

XQC WinstonHmm

feral zodiac
#

no lul

hot heart
#

In terms of mechanics

#

Guxue

#

In terms of just their recent performances

#

Fearless

tulip shore
#

Looking forward to seeing a bit of Winston

hot heart
#

Yeah me too

tulip shore
#

With any luck they slightly buff orisa later today on

#

In a way that gives her more of a niche and is interesting

hot heart
#

Hopefully not

#

But

#

Ye

tulip shore
#

And for now we are Winston

hot heart
#

Okay

tulip shore
#

And ball

#

I hope

hot heart
#

Mmm monkey

tulip shore
#

With Zarya dva

#

Maybe some Sig

#

Monkey Ball would be cool too

#

Honestly if someone played orisa ball

#

Orisas kind of the off tank there now

#

Wonder if it still works

agile pewter
#

who would yall say is the best player in OWL currently

tulip shore
#

Ameng

cobalt spoke
#

1 best player is really hard to say

#

By role?

agile pewter
#

yeah sure

#

by role

cobalt spoke
#

Choi, Ans, viol2t

agile pewter
#

ok

cobalt spoke
#

Best players on the best teams

hot heart
#

Ans

#

Idk about that

#

His sombra was wack

#

Lip is better overall

tulip shore
#

Ans is best widow

silk frost
#

Lip sombra best sombra

#

Danteh looks burnt

cobalt spoke
#

And everything else has the best at

ancient lance
#

hi

true hound
#

By role hmm

#

MT idk

#

OT probably void

#

DPS is def fleta or Carpe

#

Support there are a lot

edgy tinsel
#

omfg

#

why does everyone overhype carpe

#

like hes not good when it comes to the BIG matches

#

he only performs in regular season

#

fleta striker rascal are the best dps rn

true hound
#

because Carpe is a god gamer

#

he deserves all the praise

#

there are 0 players more clutch than Carpe

earnest leaf
#

Because he's a good player from s1

#

who is in the killfeed a lot

#

So people are like "oh ya he big stronk"

#

Even though alarm is a bigger carry

balmy wolf
#

bruh i'd say the best dps rn are dragons with fleta and lip

#

carpe got outshine in big matches

#

LIP is a crazy hitscan player who actually has the best sombra in the league rn

#

fleta still a flex god

tropic herald
#

Crazy how LIP has gone from some random T3 to a top hitscan in OWL

raw ermine
#

same for ANS

tropic herald
#

I thought ANS was already respected?

raw ermine
#

he was retired

cobalt spoke
#

Mt is smurf or super tank failure

hot heart
#

Super as best player in MT pepega clap

#

For rein

#

Yeah he is the best no doubt

#

Smurf is overall the best MT in the league

#

His winston and orisa are so fucking good

true hound
#

ye but ANS was still very well known in ladder

#

not a pro but considered a super good widow in KR

forest raven
#

Ranked warlord

#

Like jjonak

tropic herald
#

ㅠㅠ

next mesa
#

Yeah Smurf is prob best

#

Because fearless orisa is not THAT good

I think

sullen berry

okay I know all stars voting is still small

hot heart
#

The OWL wiĺl decide on Fleta Void or carpe

#

But tbh

sullen berry
#

but the numbers tell me people choose not to vote for a certain role

hot heart
#

Probably fleta or void

sullen berry
#

gee, i wonder why the submissions are like this WinstonThink

Top 2 in both regions:

oh man

hot heart
#

Twitlonger is banned where im from i think

sullen berry
#

that's awful boston couldn't pick up good talent and retain them

#

but he was on the eternal academy team this year anyway

#

he has dropped out probably with prospects on other fps

echo quest
#

Gist of it is he doesn’t enjoy OW anymore

hot heart
#

Hm

echo quest
#

He going to valorant

hot heart
#

If he could stomp sp9rk1e

sullen berry
#

I wasn't going to say it but yeah

hot heart
#

Man could have been an mvp this year

sullen berry
#

you can't grind this game if the motivation isn't there

hot heart
#

True

sullen berry
#

you can be seagull and take your moment to shine in stage 4 playoffs

#

but I think he had no interest in the players around him

echo quest
#

Ye I was watching his streams he could tell he didn’t like playing OW anymore

sullen berry
#

and the streaming business is still fertile

echo quest
#

Like Sinatraa’s streams before he left

sullen berry
#

he's only succeeded with the freedom of not being chained to one game and making APEX content on YT

#

He would still be considered a positive member of the OW community despite the damage he's done

true hound
#

who

#

Seagull?

Seagull
