Hot take

Rascal leaves shock

[tropic herald]

LJG Slime are definitely contenders

[raw ermine]

slime hasn't played in a while

[hot heart]

LJG when he isnt inting

[earnest leaf]

Slime has been benched for tobi tho

and ljg turbo feeds

[digital cloud]

and apparently Tobi according to everyone here

[earnest leaf]

although still good

[hot heart]

If slime plays more

[raw ermine]

someone who is supposedly better than moth wouldn't be benched

[digital cloud]

funnyastro is up there

[hot heart]

Dude

Hol up

[tropic herald]

Tobi unironically is a vampire

He will not get benched

[earnest leaf]

also

[hot heart]

Would slime be cheaper than moth

Bro

[earnest leaf]

I bet danteh is leaving outlaws

[hot heart]

BRO

Imagine

[digital cloud]

plus the god that is carcar

Carcar surpasses all

[tropic herald]

Danteh leaving outlaws

Hmmm

Where he go

I bet Nero is leaving charge

[digital cloud]

no we need him

please stay

[hot heart]

Super Smurf Choi Ans Rascal Ans Twighlight Slime

Viol2t slike

*slime

Dude

[tropic herald]

Well Shock would have an insane backline if they signed slime

[digital cloud]

slime violet twilight?

[hot heart]

Best Backline in OW i think

[silk frost]

what if they sign

.

[earnest leaf]

Imagine if oge was 18

[silk frost]

halo

[next mesa]

moth is not worse than slime

[hot heart]

Ah yes

[next mesa]

though

[hot heart]

Halo

[tropic herald]

I kinda want to see Twilight go to Shanghai

[hot heart]

The chad

[next mesa]

I bet slime would rather go to justice

[hot heart]

And dont forget about the one and only true bench god Avast

[next mesa]

why does dragons need twilight

[silk frost]

Slime on Justice would be monsterous

[hot heart]

The greatest MS in OW history

[next mesa]

they already have izayaki AND luffy

[tropic herald]

I forgot they had luffy

[silk frost]

slime luffy support duo on Justice with Mag, Jjanu, and Decay dude

[tropic herald]

Slime to justice

[hot heart]

Luffy is pretty good

[tropic herald]

Luffy is good but he’s been played barely any this year

[hot heart]

Dude could go to a good team

And be starter

Tbh

[digital cloud]

why do people want justice to have a good team so much now?

geez

[tropic herald]

Maybe Luffy goes to Justice

[silk frost]

decay

[tropic herald]

Because Justice look like they will be good next year

[hot heart]

why do people want justice to have a good team so much now?
@digital cloud because they have some potential for it

[tropic herald]

And their new staff seems competent

[silk frost]

I'm still waiting for Houston to go chinese/Korean

[hot heart]

People like seeing things or peoppe fulfil their potential ig

[earnest leaf]

didn't we say this about justice last year

lol

[digital cloud]

jjanu and decay are like the only decent parts they have rn

[tropic herald]

No one said that about justice

[next mesa]

no

[tropic herald]

They looked meh at best last year

[next mesa]

they have stitch and aimgod as well

[tropic herald]

This year they have multiple good pic exes

[next mesa]

and ttuba

[hot heart]

I feel like ttuba is kinda like sp9rk1e in a way

[tropic herald]

With synergy

[silk frost]

we did say this last year because of Corey

who's better Corey or Decay

[digital cloud]

aimgod is overrated, and stitch had like one performance this year

[next mesa]

ttuba and stitch really stepped up in the playoffs

[hot heart]

?

Aimgod on ana and zen is decent

[next mesa]

aimgod isn't top tier but he's definitely not bad

MCD is a free agent I realized

Who’s getting him

[digital cloud]

I mean, he isn't bad, but jjanu and decay are the only top tiers

[hot heart]

Yeah

But

[worn falcon]

@earnest leaf already posted that you 🐢

[hot heart]

I think if i we're justice

[earnest leaf]

ligma balls cuyo

[worn falcon]

but yeah: Moth, Boombox, Cloudy free agent

any one im missing?

[digital cloud]

they have the same amount of good pieces as Houston

[hot heart]

Id be looking to become a sort of mayhem level team

Not top level

[next mesa]

doubt moth will go away

[digital cloud]

Meko and Danteh

[hot heart]

But pretty good

[silk frost]

Halo is a FA too

don't forget

the god himself

[worn falcon]

inb4 Carpe Free Agent

[hot heart]

Yes

[worn falcon]

monkaS

[hot heart]

The freak beast Halo

[next mesa]

justice has much more potential than houston LOL

[hot heart]

I mean

[silk frost]

EVERYONE has more potential than HOUSTON

[digital cloud]

probably right

[next mesa]

houston doesn't have a decay

[hot heart]

Houstan

Is the teak

[worn falcon]

after being the 2nd best player in OWL

[karmic grotto]

Hybrid take here: ChipSa will replace ivy

[worn falcon]

so many years

[hot heart]

Literally no ome has hope for

[next mesa]

like they have danteh and meko that's about it

[hot heart]

You'd say boston too

[worn falcon]

I hope they resign Fissure

[silk frost]

Boston has a better chance at being good next year

[hot heart]

But boston has been so bad

[worn falcon]

even in Boston

[karmic grotto]

@worn falcon who?

[next mesa]

boston can't get any worse

so

[hot heart]

That you just feel frustrated yet sad

[silk frost]

Huk is no longer manager and Mineral is no longer their coach

it's a perfect storm

[hot heart]

Ye

Thats a good headstart

Until i realised

[digital cloud]

every team has a chance but Houston

[hot heart]

He was still involved witht thek

[digital cloud]

Boston had a perfect stage

[hot heart]

*them

[digital cloud]

Shanghai are great now

[silk frost]

Huk is the president of gaming for Boston so he'll still take part in SCOUTING, but his business practices are less likely to seep in

[digital cloud]

Mayhem stepped it up

[hot heart]

Cool

[digital cloud]

only Houston has sucked consistently

well, and maybe Toronto

[silk frost]

Dallas kinda too

[hot heart]

If shanghai improve next year

[karmic grotto]

I'll coach the Reign, together we will win

[hot heart]

At all from this year

[digital cloud]

Dallas too I guess

[hot heart]

Ill be surprised

This year

Was

[silk frost]

only way Shanghai improve is by putting Diya on snipers 4head

[hot heart]

Monumental

[digital cloud]

I forgot about Dallas and Toronto

[next mesa]

dragons hosting open trials

[raw ermine]

everyone in this chat combined will coach reign

[next mesa]

but tbh they should just let dding play

[silk frost]

open trials for who?

[hot heart]

I forgot about Toronto for 2 months

[digital cloud]

we could do a better job honestly

[silk frost]

what role

[next mesa]

@silk frost every role

its kinda weird

[silk frost]

weird

[next mesa]

They don't really need anything tbh?

[digital cloud]

we aren't crusty, but we can't be worse than Reign coaches

[hot heart]

I mean

[next mesa]

maybe like

[karmic grotto]

I'll coach your parents for free

[next mesa]

another off-tank for void burnout

[hot heart]

Maybe a back up for void?

[next mesa]

yeah

[hot heart]

Yeah

[next mesa]

just like choi

[hot heart]

Maybe

[silk frost]

I already coach a 4k team I'm better than the reign coaching staff bro

[karmic grotto]

Choi the clown

[vagrant jacinth]

LHcloudy gone big sad

[hot heart]

Lhcloudy to Boston

Heard it here first

Lmao

[tropic herald]

Cloudy to London

[hot heart]

If i were him

[silk frost]

Dragons should get 2 more main supports so Moon doesn't put Stand1 on Lucio

[hot heart]

Id retire

Or go to t2

[worn falcon]

Cloudy to Outlaws

[hot heart]

Whatevers left of it

[digital cloud]

he would be an upgrade sadly

[worn falcon]

fucking Outlaws needs a MT

Justice too

[digital cloud]

we do, we really do

[vagrant jacinth]

I wanna see large huge on a team pls

[silk frost]

every team needs a main tank except Boston, Shock, and Philly

[tropic herald]

LeeJaeGon is too smart

[karmic grotto]

ChipSa is gonna get re-signed as starter, Carpe is going to leave for Nyxl, nenne goes to Hunters, Libero becomes head coach of Houston, my gold fishes becomes the best team of Overwatch

[silk frost]

you're forgetting about the obvious one

Diya to Hangzhou

making them a true superteam

[worn falcon]

Ameng to Seoul

[digital cloud]

forgot about spark too

geez

we have too many teams

[worn falcon]

Archillect back to SFS

[next mesa]

profit is gonna go to dragons

[silk frost]

let's just kick out Houston

[tropic herald]

Gesture re signed as a hog specialist

[silk frost]

19 teams is good

[next mesa]

myunbong to shock

[silk frost]

another flex support?

[hot heart]

Myungbong to shock

Bro

[next mesa]

making them have 3 top tier flex supports

[worn falcon]

broh

[next mesa]

because

its the obvious move

[karmic grotto]

Also, Harbleu finally gets a chance to shine. He becomes the streamer celebrity

[worn falcon]

Alarm gonna be the highest paid rookie

if everything goes well

[next mesa]

no

[hot heart]

San Francisco Shock Myungbong does kinda sound cool

[worn falcon]

👀

[next mesa]

the streamer thing

only works

if chipsa gets dropped

[silk frost]

I remember I used to say I wanted Myungbong, Fusions, and Jerry on Houston so they'd actually be good

[karmic grotto]

Disagree

[silk frost]

but now Boston might actually try so fuck

[digital cloud]

Harb would be more likely to be played than Chipsa

[karmic grotto]

Yeatle Lulw

[digital cloud]

and Harb would still never be played

Yeatle is untouchable after Ameng

[silk frost]

remember when Yeatle said he's better than Ameng because he has better mechanics

[digital cloud]

dude is a moron and we all know it

[karmic grotto]

Well, if he scrimmed seriously as ball specialist, his mechanics could have overpower other ball players

[silk frost]

he's a worse ball than Ball, Gaga, and Ameng

at LEAST

[next mesa]

lets see him perform in tier one lol

mano too

nasty ball

[hot heart]

Mano is a beast

[next mesa]

also marve1

[hot heart]

I think

[next mesa]

pretty good ball

[digital cloud]

mano actually is good

[silk frost]

I'm talking about ball SPECIALISTS

[hot heart]

He's a top 4 MT

[next mesa]

dude

[hot heart]

Not like there are many good MTs

[next mesa]

dont even need ball specialists

to be better than yeatle at ball

[hot heart]

Just sign mano

[karmic grotto]

Just need support oil

Lulw

[hot heart]

Ez

So

[karmic grotto]

Wrecking ball in team vs ranked is verg different

Very*

[hot heart]

Whats your biggest preds for this Off season

I feel like

Washington

[karmic grotto]

[hot heart]

[tropic herald]

Muze to Paris

[hot heart]

Very

Very

[karmic grotto]

I want to buy a shirt, but don't know who

[hot heart]

Crazy shit

[karmic grotto]

Even though I'm Reign fan, I can't force myself to buy their shirt

[hot heart]

MuZe to paris

Why

[next mesa]

dude if washington can sign a good mt and like slime they are stacked

[tropic herald]

@karmic grotto titans jehong

[vagrant jacinth]

I say go for it dudie

[hot heart]

I havent watched him play

[karmic grotto]

XD

[digital cloud]

titans as an org just needs to go

they shafted runaway

[silk frost]

@hot heart I don't mean to be rude, but could you say your messages in 1 message so it's easier to read? You keep sending like 5 separate messages and it makes it confusing

[karmic grotto]

A shirt with my name, I'm sure there will be discounts soon

[vagrant jacinth]

Washington actually might be very very good next season

[silk frost]

I think Boston may be top 12 next season

[karmic grotto]

Then I'll order

[digital cloud]

decay was on dallas too

we never thought they were going to be good

[vagrant jacinth]

I wanna pick up a London one ye

[digital cloud]

curb the enthusiasm

[hot heart]

@hot heart I don't mean to be rude, but could you say your messages in 1 message so it's easier to read? You keep sending like 5 separate messages and it makes it confusing
@silk frost sorry i just tend to do that alot, ill try and send them in 1 message :)

[next mesa]

imagine splitting a goat team

how stupid can you be

[silk frost]

thanks, I appreciate that!

[hot heart]

Lmao levy what

[karmic grotto]

Hahahaha

[hot heart]

Aight man

[next mesa]

talking about titans management

[hot heart]

Btw have any titans players talked about the org and how irs treating them?

[silk frost]

Runaway being split up like that is like trying to break up the 2nd best team in the world looks at 2019 playoffs OH WAIT

[karmic grotto]

We don't know all details, it's better to move on

[hot heart]

I feel like if the org learned something they might not completely fuck everything up next year

Everyone still hates them but ya know

[silk frost]

they're going full western almost 100%

they don't like working with korean players

they might just shove money at Moth and get him

[hot heart]

Titans doesnt even make me angry

[valid oxide]

Wait, so if Moth is free agent, does that mean Twilight is staying?

[silk frost]

I'm guessing only Moth is leaving

[hot heart]

Not anymore, just really fuckin sad.

[next mesa]

@hot heart they can't

[silk frost]

others would have left at the same time yknow

[next mesa]

they signed a

[vagrant jacinth]

Moth is leaving?

[next mesa]

a

[hot heart]

?

[next mesa]

fuck what is it called again

[silk frost]

he's off the team atm

[next mesa]

non disclosure agreement

[silk frost]

[hot heart]

An NDA?

[next mesa]

except like fissure I think?

[vagrant jacinth]

sadge

[hot heart]

Fissure didnt since he got dropped

[next mesa]

anyway

[karmic grotto]

Mouth nervios

[next mesa]

yeah

It must've been really fucking bad, to even piss of ryujehong

[silk frost]

Valentine to Boston to make the killer DPS duo

[next mesa]

who fissure said is like the nicest guy

[vagrant jacinth]

Not anymo, moth c o n f i d e n t

[hot heart]

The rest mutually departed, he specifically stated in his contract the only way for him to leave the team was if they dropped him.

[silk frost]

Jehong is a G

[hot heart]

So that makes sense.

[silk frost]

such a good dude

[hot heart]

But fr if i dont see anything from Washington Tommorow imma be sad

Anyway

Gn everyone

[next mesa]

gn nerd

[silk frost]

goodnight friend

[hot heart]

Its 2 am and i have a fuckin meeting Tommorow

[silk frost]

I feel like Boston are about to sign some huge sleeper talent and some of WGS

[vagrant jacinth]

Night night

[next mesa]

that would be a waste

boston fucks everything up

[silk frost]

I actually think they'll do good things this year

no more Mineral? Less of Huk?

[next mesa]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Ei2GQocUYAA0lNq?format=jpg&name=900x900

I don't even know korean I know

[silk frost]

any translates in the chat?

[next mesa]

I think its pretty self explanatory though

according to twitter its:

Yes! that’s it
This is OVERWATCH

No!!!!!! No!!! don’t go just wait!!!!

don’t....leave me...........please

[raw ermine]

It was probably an all stars joke

[silk frost]

well yeah it's self explanatory but a couple word choices will make it funnier

[raw ermine]

he got to play with them

[digital cloud]

He posted it himself lol

[raw ermine]

and now they're gone

[digital cloud]

He had a good team

And the. It was gone

Then*

[next mesa]

actually dissing his own team

like I think he's leaving

[digital cloud]

I mean to be fair he could do better

I mean it is sort of a dick move but he really could

[silk frost]

yeah

[next mesa]

wasnt he like

clearly better than alarm in contenders or something

lmfao idfk

that was so funny

also sorri

[tropic herald]

He types like he talks

[cobalt spoke]

Slime is ok

Roar is who we need to leave

Remove roar

[hidden vault]

glads removing all finnish players

[timid phoenix]

r ar

[plush grail]

remember what logix said

about there being only 5 decent coaches in owl

pog

[hidden crow]

crusty, crusty, crusty, junkbunk, arachne

ninek was one

but then he went to paris

[cobalt spoke]

YEP

[hot heart]

Crusty is a GOAT when it comes to Coaches

Imo

[dim path]

So I’m relatively new to esports

All I need to know is, why the fuck did the gladiators drop so many people

[hidden vault]

they didn't do well this season and hence they decided

they needed to change the players for a better team

[dim path]

Ah

I just watch old matches that nyxl play because saebyolbe

Is an amazing tracer

[raw ermine]

They had a mediocre season

the support line slowly became worse compare to other teams

Bischu, Jaru, and LhCloudy were benched

so they got rid of them all

[hot heart]

Dude

I just realised how stacked glads dps and tanks are

OGE space Birdring Kevster

With better coaching and a consistent support line

[karmic grotto]

they have to sign cheap but good supports with potential

[hot heart]

They could be great

Myungbong

There's a chance

Myungbong is almost as valuable as Mag rn

[plush grail]

so like it's confirmed moth is gonna become a FA

to see if any team can give him a good offer

[hot heart]

I mean

Didnt he delete his previous tweet

He did

[plush grail]

yeah because he's not allowed yet or something

[hot heart]

Hm

[plush grail]

the FA stuff starts like 23rd of october

[hot heart]

No way he doesnt get resigned

If they dont

Their brawl comp and alot of that leadership will be gone

[plush grail]

idk man

some teams might wanna pick him up

[raw ermine]

He deleted it

and posted a follow up one about how he wasn't sure what he was allowed to post, he was getting conflicting answers

[hidden vault]

i think Myungbong might go Justice tho

but I do agree glads need one or two korean supports to match witj OGE and birdring

[karmic grotto]

Why would he?

I think aimgod fits greatly in this team

[raw ermine]

so he's FA, shock will give him a contract with lots of money, and he resigns with them

big deal

[hidden vault]

i think Myungbong foes fit into justice

i think Shock may get a korean main support to replace moth since they are kinda 5-1 now

but they haven't found one for 2 years

[raw ermine]

I think its necessary for teams to get 2 flex supports now

[hot heart]

Moth to justice or glads

Imagine

wait

Myungbong Moth

Why does that sounf sick

[hidden vault]

it definitely does!

but I think justice wants the full korean so probably not

[hot heart]

Mag Jjanu Stitch Decay Ttuba Myungbong Aimgod Slime

That is the perfect squad i could come up with

Like

Not perfect

But

As good as it gets without completely breaking the bank

[hidden vault]

i would suggest fissure over mag but yeah

[hot heart]

Yeah me too

But

Realistically

Mag is heading to justice

[hidden vault]

Mag is heading to justice
is this some insider news? haha

[hot heart]

I mean

He tried out for them

Early on kinda

So

Maybe it happens

[hidden vault]

maybe haha

[hot heart]

Justice could really do something with this squad

Like

Really do something

The fire power at dps and the Skill at OT

[silk frost]

And then it'll crumble like 2019 because Decay will be mega burnt out or something

[hidden vault]

what's wrong with justice yoh

[karmic grotto]

yo mama

[next mesa]

Myunbong better than aimgod I think

[silk frost]

That isn't even a question

Myungbong might be better than Alarm, no question if he's better than Aimgof

God

[vagrant jacinth]

Justice could actually be serious contenders with a squad like that

[hot heart]

Ye

Hopefully they dont fuck it up

Which they will

Just how bad they fuck it up is the question on my mind

[silk frost]

Imo Mag isn't even that good, he's just better than most main tanks in OWL, although we've all seen how the "BEST" main tanks in Contenders tend to flop (Panker, RoaR, Yakpung)

It's always the 2nd or 3rd best MT players, or even the hidden gems like Marve1, Dreamer, and Fearles

[next mesa]

fearless did win contenders

[karmic grotto]

Remember when we thought Dreamer was dogshit

Good coach knows and sees the potential in a player

While you don't see it now, later it will be shown

Look at ttuba

Man was not good in the beginning, but now he's actually cracked

[next mesa]

myunbong needs to get unleashed

[raw ermine]

remember all the "lets see the LAV roster get out of open division" tweets?

lul

[hidden vault]

panker lol

panker is where?

did he even play in owl?

[raw ermine]

he was on LAG

but hardly played over roar

if at all

then he left

jumped around contenders

and retired

[tropic herald]

I think the whole of OWL should not be allowed to use 👀

[hot heart]

Dude

OWL players and teams just playing mind games with us

I swear

Living rent free

[next mesa]

did justice drop anything

no right

[raw ermine]

not yet

[next mesa]

it was supposed to be yesterday

https://esportsobserver.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/OWL-Grand-Finals-2020-Viewership-Graphic-750x375.jpg

[raw ermine]

it was the most watched?

[hot heart]

Hm

[raw ermine]

but most of that was china

260% for china

but overall its 38%

thats a severe drop for NA

[next mesa]

doesn't matter

[raw ermine]

true

[hot heart]

Tbh

Idk if thats impressive

Or not

Idk anything about view counts in esports

[next mesa]

Game 6 of the NBA finals was around 5.3 million so that pretty good

As a benchmark, the League s10 finals group stage that was going on at the same time had a 30m~40m popularity number on Bilibili

Owl streams on 4 platforms in China, Bilibili, Huya, Douyu, and CC. The biggest one Bilibili had the “live popularity metric” around 13m at peak during the grand finals. I usually divide those numbers by 10~20 to get a rough estimate of true number of viewers. Seems legit

copied from reddit

[silk frost]

getting china to watch your esport is like getting mark zuckerberg to sponsor your lemonaid stand

[karmic grotto]

@next mesa That's very bad 5.3m in a country of 330

[next mesa]

the nba?

I don't know if that is accurate

but to be fair this year's finals was underwhelming

[karmic grotto]

[next mesa]

heat had no chance

let's be honest

boombox to london

because it's fleta

what else do you need

[raw ermine]

the grand finals pic says we had 180k concurrent viewers on YT

I don't remember it being that high

[limber pine]

It's terminology.

exclusivity

doesn't mean he's not signed, just means he's allowed to look at other options

[karmic grotto]

So they gave us update of event, but tracer skin bug still not fixed

[vagrant jacinth]

Here's hoping they eventually resign uber

[next mesa]

yes

[vagrant jacinth]

Great caster

The soe/custa/reinforce desk was also incredible

While it will probably not be at the level of last off season, IF I get confirmed OWL roster moves, then I will report them. https://t.co/ogYI6op03Y

[karmic grotto]

You were all Jebaited

[tropic herald]

Eait

You can buy contenders skins

Wait

Wait

They are locked

[brisk jolt]

Apologies if the wrong place to post, but has anyone else not gotten their Grand Finals rewards? And is there really any hope for anyone who hasn't gotten theirs yet to still get them?

[earnest leaf]

I got mine the same day

But i'm in NA so I think that helped

I have heard people from different regions have been having issues getting rewards though but i'm not entirely sure

[brisk jolt]

I'm in NA as well 😅 Been checking all my platforms (PC, PS4). I got some tokens and I see the spray in the gallery with a filter but I've checked everyday since and still nothing.

Quite really sucks because I actually went to the grand finals last year but I was completely clueless on needing to check the app for rewards to get the sprays and icon and I missed out. Tried to reach out to support and nothing.

[tropic herald]

Try unlinking and delinking your accounts

Re*

[hot heart]

It worked for me

So try that

[quartz cairn]

yea unlink and relink ur ps4 account to blizzard

my thing logged itself out prior and i got no rewards at all

but since u got sprays and tokens

ur skin should be there

[vagrant jacinth]

Yah, a lot of people said unblinking and relinking their accounts worked

You can buy contenders skins
@tropic herald really? I did see that there was a contenders player icon too but it's locked

[teal flame]

Look at his profile

If this man gets signed, I will consider switching favourite teams

Maybe if Justice even picks a better main rain, or roar does a ttuba and goes in a hyperbolic timechamber

Then it will be bye Atlanta, and hello Justice

Wait nvm

It's speculation

Also, wtf, comp sub mods keep deleting and closing threads, while trash meme ones gets to stay

[raw ermine]

3rd best

LUL

[balmy wolf]

consistency is a better metric than grand finals

[earnest leaf]

2nd best imo

[balmy wolf]

we all know what happen to london after they won

[earnest leaf]

I think for the final 4 it ended up being a meta diff

Who was favored the most

but shock adapted the best and won

[balmy wolf]

if it was anything besides hog, dragons would've made it to the finals

now that I think about it

the same thing happen to NY

best season record, didnt make finals

Anyway, next year dragons should still be top 3

idk who would be top 3 with shock or dragons tho

[earnest leaf]

houston

[balmy wolf]

Thoughts?

[karmic grotto]

pls

If I can get buy Contender skin

I will frag out and be cracked on Zarya, ez

[cobalt spoke]

No

[karmic grotto]

su

[upper niche]

@karmic grotto I'd love to see a feature added where active OWL and OWC players get like a little team logo or contenders logo instead of their rank, and can use their assigned skins, and give them the ability to use pseudonyms on a single account.

[karmic grotto]

That's something I've thought about in the past

Like, there is no reason for pro's to not show who they are in ranked

[upper niche]

It'd be great to be in a game and know "wow, this is a guy I can learn from".

[karmic grotto]

Like verified players?

They should do verification, that would be cool

[upper niche]

Yeah. I get that they might get abused, stream sniped etc - so that's why I reckon give them the ability to maybe use pseudonyms/alt nicks so they dont have to identify themselves - but honestly the 'need' to use alt accounts is just total shit for the game overall.

Frogger has an alt account which isn't verified but would be Top 200, and it's like... just the fact that he needs to do that, cos of stream sniping and abuse, sigh.

[karmic grotto]

I think there were other players who were getting sniped

arge ?

[upper niche]

Oh it happens to nearly anyone who streams.

[karmic grotto]

Blizzard should be able to take action against it

[upper niche]

You know what alternatively would be good - a checkbox that says "don't show my identity to myself".

[karmic grotto]

How would you implement that?

[upper niche]

so when you press tab and on other menus, it doesn't show your own username.

Would be easy. just anywhere where it draws the playername, don't draw the playername.

Essentially it means noone watching knows what username the streamer is playing using - they can still watch the match just as well.

Changes nothing for anyone else in the game, they still see things completely normally.

[karmic grotto]

Aaah yes

I see, makes sense

But, about what you said earlier, the OWL and Contenders team logo, how would that work?

[upper niche]

Just display it instead of the rank (usually master/gm) chevron

In the profile portrait border.

[karmic grotto]

Wouldn't that still be sniping the player?

[karmic grotto]

I have a suggestion, popular streamers, with weight in community and pro's with weight, should be able to have special features on their main account to have "privilege" authorities to flag an account as throwing or sniping to blizzard

[upper niche]

Just use Twitch account linking.

The API would also allow the data of who's viewing a stream at a time to be used.

Couple that with Twitch allowing 'only allow registered accounts to view'.. there's a lot that could be done.

[raw ermine]

I have always thought high profile twitch streamers should at least have "high priority reports"

[digital cloud]

Kephrii alone proves that is a bad idea

[keen jetty]

You took the words right out of my mind Grike

[next mesa]

yes

also justice still hasn't dropped anything

scam

[karmic grotto]

@digital cloud It should be selective

Only a small part of the streamers should be able to have the privelege

[digital cloud]

Then we get streamers complaining about not getting chosen

[karmic grotto]

They're not getting sniped

[digital cloud]

To be frank, you don’t want to be sniped, you shouldn’t be streaming

It sucks, but it is going to happen

[raw ermine]

Kephrii is excepted

sinatraa probs gonna win

[raw ermine]

This is ominous

[next mesa]

Sparkle to shock

confirmed

[raw ermine]

trade sparkle and hanbin for choi and striker

[silk frost]

That would be the worst trade a team has ever done

Choi is slightly better than Hanbin, but the gap between Striker and Sparkle is as big as the gap from Sparkle to Adora imo

[raw ermine]

yeah

[true hound]

wouldnt make sense anyways

one is top tier projectile

one is top tier hitscan

[edgy tinsel]

trade sparkle and hanbin for choi and striker
@raw ermine are u mentally ok?

[raw ermine]

bruh

I am joking

[edgy tinsel]

ok good

[raw ermine]

I saw those 3 and thought about hanbin cause off tank for paris

It's still ominous

[edgy tinsel]

i was going to offer some mental institutes for u

but we good

[vagrant jacinth]

The eyes are killing me, what's going onnn

[silk frost]

remember in Avatar when that random guy went up to Sokka and Zuko when Sokka was tryina rescue his dad and said "Yeah, how are you gonna get them out?"

[next mesa]

ffs shock

just spill bitch

you're signing sparkle

[hot heart]

Imagine if they actually do

[cloud latch]

RIP every other team if they do

[hot heart]

They need a sombra and doom player

Ans is okay on sombra

But there are better options

Sp9rk1e and haksal are the only 2 beasts on doom left in OWL

[raw ermine]

I was about to say architect

lul

Rascal hasn't played doom

well

ever

[hot heart]

I mean

[raw ermine]

I was about to say "would you sign an entire player just to play doom?"

[hot heart]

I guess sp9rk1e for doom and genji

[raw ermine]

O_O

[hot heart]

But then again

Too many dps

Well i mean

They had 5 before

So idk

Ta1yo Ans Sp9rk1e Rascal

That sounds just too stacked

I was about to say "would you sign an entire player just to play doom?"
@raw ermine sign chipsa lmao

[raw ermine]

yep...

[hot heart]

The gaming warlord himself

They could also pickup haksal

Dont Know if he's happy on NYXL

[next mesa]

nyxl needs to choose between haksal and whoru imo

[raw ermine]

and the choice is obvious

whoru just dipped

[next mesa]

he did>

?

link

[raw ermine]

not really

like

just didn't play

He's been stream OW

[next mesa]

so he didn't

ok but he might get dropped

[hot heart]

I think he should honestly just retire at this point

Like

[next mesa]

what

he's literally so young

[hot heart]

I know

[next mesa]

and it 's not like he's bad

[hot heart]

He isn't

[next mesa]

he's mini haksal

[hot heart]

Mini

Smol

But

[next mesa]

he can compete with haksal

dude he was competing with haksal when he was like 15

[hot heart]

Can he compete with the rest of OWL

[next mesa]

even though haksal said the only reason why whoru could compete with him was because he had jehong supporting him

but still

[hot heart]

Either WhoRu becomes a starter on nyxl

Or wherever

[raw ermine]

I think he needs another chance at OWL

[next mesa]

jehong and whoru redemption arc next season

[hot heart]

If he does get another chance

[next mesa]

trust

[hot heart]

No doubt he'll do well

[digital cloud]

jehong was literally the only reason whoru was any good

[next mesa]

nah

[hot heart]

But his mental has been bad over his career hasnt it?

[next mesa]

he was good

jehong just made him better

[digital cloud]

I mean he is still quite good, but jehong dragged him over the finish line ahead of haksal himself

[next mesa]

yes

[hot heart]

Where would whoru go

[digital cloud]

he put whoru on his back and outran haksal to the end of the race

[hot heart]

You arent benching haksal

So

[next mesa]

no matter what happens in the world jehong will always sleep haksal's blades

[hot heart]

What team needs him

[digital cloud]

what would be the most ideal possible team rn?

4 dps, 4 tanks, 4 supports

[next mesa]

ditch ttuba and sign whoru

go full korean

wait is ttuba korean

fuck

im stupid

why did I think he wasn't korean

[cloud latch]

no idea

[next mesa]

oh like

super team?

@digital cloud

[digital cloud]

basically

[next mesa]

Smurf Choi Void Fearless
Viol2t Twilight Leejaegong
Fleta Striker Profit Lip

I put leejaegong instead of moth because korean

idk imo

wait

[cloud latch]

imagine a profit lip duo

[next mesa]

well

[hot heart]

The ideal team is basically SHD SFS and profit

[next mesa]

fleta is basically profit

[digital cloud]

any projectile?

I mean fleta a bit

[next mesa]

Fleta and Profit

Profit genji and pharah all good

[hot heart]

Rascal

[next mesa]

fleta can play anything

[digital cloud]

profit and fleta are mostly hitscan

[hot heart]

I think hes an absolute beast

Like

Rascal Fleta

Rascal Profit

[next mesa]

Profit wasn't very hitscan except tracer

only like this season right

did he start playing ashe

his hanzo's a nut

and like in this meta

[hot heart]

Profit plays whatever and he's top tier at whatever

[digital cloud]

he was a Widow too

[next mesa]

yeah

Lip is for the widow and sombra

Striker is only there for tracer

[hot heart]

Wait

[next mesa]

profit and fleta can play everything else

[hot heart]

Just reminded me of route 66

Lip fucked on the widow

[vagrant jacinth]

Yeah profit has a super deep hero pool

[next mesa]

Lip widow's a nut man like barely worse than diem probably

[vagrant jacinth]

^^

[next mesa]

see how they are all korean

[vagrant jacinth]

Lip's sombra is monstrous

[hot heart]

Thats another thing

What will heesu do next year

I think heesu started ramping up for the playoffs

And just started fucking on the sombra

[next mesa]

too bad we never got to see heesu sombra vs fits sombra

to decide who is #2 sombra

[hot heart]

Imo

I think heesu is better

Not by much

But better

[next mesa]

never got to see

[hot heart]

Yeah

[next mesa]

because fusion got ROLLED

[hot heart]

Im just going off what i saw in their matches before they got stomped

Like

Imagine being the favourite team in alot of people's eyes

Then going 0-6

[next mesa]

only delusionals tbh

[hot heart]

I dont have hope anymore tbh

[next mesa]

because no way they were being shock

beating*

[hot heart]

Until fusion win something

[next mesa]

philly just doesnt beat shock

[hot heart]

Im not gonna expect them to make runs

Except if it really favours them

[next mesa]

welcome to dynasty fandom

no expectations

[vagrant jacinth]

This could've been their season

[next mesa]

better than last season

[hot heart]

I think the hog meta was so unpredictable

That they just fell over

[willow tartan]

[next mesa]

I didn't expect hog to be played 100% ngl

[hot heart]

Everyone else either adepted or we're absolute freaks individually

[next mesa]

after seeing fusion fuck justice with their dive

[vagrant jacinth]

I thought they would've been the ones to adapt to it quickest but guess not

[hot heart]

Yeah

Fusion always adapt really quickly

And find set strats they can use

But for some reason

[vagrant jacinth]

Exactly

[hot heart]

They just fucked up

And now im not sure if they can do it next year

[vagrant jacinth]

Gonna watch plat chat later, see what their analysis is

[hot heart]

This year really was the year

[next mesa]

plat chat is fucking clown

dude

imagine picking fusion

pepelaugh

[vagrant jacinth]

Yeah, with the line-up they had this year, they could've absolutely dominated

[hot heart]

I mean if it was the sombra meta

Id pick fusion too

Them or SHD

[vagrant jacinth]

They dismissed Seoul altogether last time lmao

[hot heart]

The thing with seoul

Is you dont dismiss them during playoffs

[vagrant jacinth]

Yeah. Sombra meta it's either them or dragons

[hot heart]

Or for tournaments

They just come alive

And your bracket gets fucked

Platchat look like a gathering of retired clowns

[next mesa]

imagine doubting profit

fuckin dumbasses pepelaugh

[hot heart]

Our lord and saviour profit
