hot heart
#

But Chengdu make no sense

silk frost
#

it'll be like 6 or 7 months no?

plush grail
#

''surely nyxl will stomp chengdu''

silk frost
#

starting in april?

hot heart
#

Rumoured to be yeah

weak bolt
#

April was the rumoured delayed start I think

hot heart
#

Waiting for OW2 was the reason

#

And covid probably

weak bolt
#

Not sure it was OW2, I think it was more Covid

silk frost
#

yeah so the 6 month off season pog

#

I remember hearing it was OW2

weak bolt
#

They want to try make homestands plausible

hot heart
#

So OW2 is just a plus of them delaying then

plush grail
#

6 months to prepare but im willing to bet boston is still gonna be garbage

silk frost
#

I heard it was because of OW2 with covid being done being a bonus

hot heart
#

Huh

weak bolt
#

OW2 would be a stretch unless Blizzard launch the game in like February

hot heart
#

Alright

silk frost
#

no way Boston suck again, they'll pick up some good talent and have a good coaching staff to build it up with

#

unlike Mineral

weak bolt
#

They released Mineral I think right?

silk frost
#

no he's GM nwo

#

now*

hot heart
#

He moved into another position in the org

silk frost
#

he knows how to win but not how to get there

hot heart
#

Wait

silk frost
#

good for GM

hot heart
#

He's gm??

#

Ok

#

Didn't know that

weak bolt
#

I thought I saw a LFT post or something from him, or was that someone else

silk frost
#

I'm 99% sure

#

he's manager sorry

plush grail
#

no way Boston suck again, they'll pick up some good talent and have a good coaching staff to build it up with
@silk frost bro don't even lie to yourself, they'll pick up some godlike talent, trade him 2 weeks into the season and pick up a gold player to replace him

#

either that or boston signs a pedo again pog

silk frost
#

they wanna win this year

hot heart
#

Yeah

#

It seems like they do

#

They wonf

silk frost
#

wanting to win is the first step out of 20th

hot heart
#

But what matters is the drive to win

#

Yeah

#

Hopefully they do well

#

Im just sad for boston

#

It used to be funny

plush grail
#

i want people like myunbong to succeed

weak bolt
#

Ah it was Mentalist I saw LFT, not Mineral

plush grail
#

but the org just doesn't care at all

silk frost
#

they'll find some pog hidden talent and the coaching staff will be good

#

as long as they get a promising 2nd assistant coach they'll be potentially good

weak bolt
#

Boston just want to be mid tier and not laughing stock

#

They don't want to win OWL

silk frost
#

they easily can be mid teir with that roster

#

EVERYONE is solid excpet MAYBE chex

weak bolt
#

Chex has potential, if they play him on heroes he's good at and not force him to play everything

silk frost
#

it'll be so easy to be mid tier with budget paris, houston, potentially bad toronto, maybe meager london, and gameplay challenged chengdu

#

at least above 3 teams

weak bolt
#

yeah

silk frost
#

and I could see them over Vancouver too

#

maybe even Atlanta

#

very maybe

plush grail
#

ameng is gonna come back to owl after having hunted bumper for his tank skills

weak bolt
#

LAV/ATL have potential to be bad too

silk frost
#

I don't think Valiant does

#

not with packing10 at the helm

plush grail
#

has LAV even made any changes

silk frost
#

yeah they dropped mcgravy, gig, and apply

weak bolt
#

all LAV did was ditch some players so far. They're likely still on a budget

silk frost
#

they just need a strong OT and they'll be good

plush grail
#

I just wanna know who's picking up jhong

#

it's weird how such a wanted player

#

has been lft for such a long time

weak bolt
#

Perhaps he's not as wanted to teams as people think

silk frost
#

maybe Toronto

#

he's an older model

#

or he goes to Houston

plush grail
#

still tho not even signed as a streamer or anything

#

he's a 50% increase in fans

weak bolt
#

Barely any teams have streamers now

#

If OWL had sense, they'd make him part of broadcast team

#

or content team at least

#

Not sure if that got posted yet, but interesting read

tropic herald
#

And then you apply that to every team

#

You understand why players are getting dropped by the dozens

silk frost
#

yeah

upper niche
#

How are DM Esports faring through other avenues/programs?

raw ermine
#

They don't seem to exist on liquipedia, although the eternal seem to be the only OWL team with a team in another game that isn't the COD league, but they go by c0ntact gaming there

edgy tinsel
raw ermine
#

yeah I saw them stacked AF

tropic herald
#

They confident af too

#

Call themselves New Kings

edgy tinsel
#

i mean

#

that could be an owl team

raw ermine
#

Has a team in contenders ever had 3 ex-owl pros?

edgy tinsel
#

can u call lullsish an ex owl pro..

#

he hasnt played a single match

#

in 2 years

tropic herald
#

Get this kid a team

raw ermine
#

He has one

edgy tinsel
#

hes resigned to houston no?

raw ermine
#

houston re-signed him

tropic herald
#

That’s the joke

#

Also

#

Please give Danteh a real team around him

edgy tinsel
#

ah so hydration MS this time?

#

instead of MT

tropic herald
#

Oh god

lilac ruin
#

stupid teams are dropping a bunch of players

edgy tinsel
#

lmao

#

that's the dumbest thing ive heard in a while tbh

lilac ruin
#

Overwatch 2 should be free

edgy tinsel
#

1: teams going more budget due to the increase of covid19 and further decrease of economy
2: players can choose to go to other teams or ask to leave , so they may not be getting dropped
3: teams releasing players doesn't make them stupid

#

Also you're already getting half of OW2 free with the new pvp engine so dont complain about that

silk frost
#

what a genius these teams MUST be stupid there couldn't POSSIBLY be ANY reasoning as to why they dropped their players

#

totally not just a lack of critical thinking skills on your end

hot heart
#

This man got ratioed hard

#

Hmmm

#

So paris are left with fdgod and xzi

#

Whats the plan

silk frost
#

drop them and build up with plats

next mesa
#

Yeah

tidal ridge
#

uprising was a top 20 team this season

earnest leaf
hot heart
#

BRO

worn falcon
#

Bro

hot heart
#

Its fake

worn falcon
#

Woman

earnest leaf
hot heart
#

Wait

#

IT ISNT

#

BRO

#

WTF

#

WHY

tropic herald
#

WHAT THE MCFUCK

worn falcon
#

Mcduck

hot heart
#

@next mesa

#

Bro

worn falcon
#

Mano gonna be benched if he's not better than Sado

hot heart
#

Its so weirs

next mesa
#

WHAT

hot heart
#

To see him in philly colours

#

Wtf man

#

Why

#

I dont understand

next mesa
#

WHAT

#

WHAT

#

THE FUCK

#

Mano might be better than sado

tropic herald
#

seeing mano in philly of all teams

next mesa
#

Sado getting traded dude

tropic herald
#

what

#

what

#

what the fuck

#

ahhhh

hot heart
#

I think with nineK coaching

#

Mano is better

#

Or will he

#

*be

#

Wait

#

If sado is traded

#

Where would he go

#

Or is he staying

next mesa
#

Fuel

hot heart
#

Fuel Sado

#

Wtf is this offseason

#

Sado HanBin Sp9rk1e Diem Doha Fielder rapel

#

Imagine

#

This weeks platchat is gonna be insane

raw ermine
#

Mmmmmmm mano to nyxl

#

Mmmmmmm

#

This feels like a downgrade tbh

#

Sado seemed better on orisa

solar bison
#

Interesting

hot heart
#

I think mano and sado are overall on the same level

solar bison
#

Yeah

hot heart
#

But i think mano can do more than sado can do with philly supporting him

solar bison
#

Maybe 9k can make him even better

#

Or both

hot heart
#

Probably makes him better

solar bison
#

I wrote nineK wrong

#

Oof

hot heart
#

Eh

#

Its shorter

#

So its easier to type out

solar bison
#

Was alarm being fed as many resources as Jjonak?

hot heart
#

NineK is gonna take this team to the next level

solar bison
#

Yeah

#

I have high hopes for this philly team

hot heart
#

I think they are now gonna be even better at rein comps

primal coyote
#

Says every Philly fan every year

#

😣

hot heart
#

Since mano is some freak beast

solar bison
#

And if they released Sado, many teams are in need of a MT

hot heart
#

Yeah

raw ermine
#

mano under ninek coaching is scary

hot heart
#

But who has the cash? Fuel.

solar bison
#

Probably

hot heart
#

mano under ninek coaching is scary
@raw ermine yep

#

Jesus

#

Mano Fury

#

Holy fuck

next mesa
#

That's a top 3 tank duo

#

for sure

hot heart
#

Yep

#

Bro

#

The only weakness now is dps

#

And its not even a weaknesses really

raw ermine
#

carpe-mano-fury AHHHHHHHHHHHH

#

imagine that in goats

hot heart
#

Bro

#

That would be ALARMingly good

raw ermine
#

true

hot heart
#

Ill see myself out

raw ermine
#

its FUNNY how ASTROnomically good fusion are

#

they decided to seize the day

next mesa
#

they need a good projectile

raw ermine
#

and unleash their FURY

next mesa
#

something Like

#

RASCAL

hot heart
#

Comedy at its finest

raw ermine
#

if that happened

#

oh my fucking god

hot heart
#

If fusion pick up rascal

next mesa
#

dude

#

rascal heesu carpe

#

kinda nice

hot heart
#

They have the money

#

And rascal being rascal fusion would do anything to get him i think

raw ermine
#

rascal on 4 teams?

next mesa
#

the second bomb this off season

#

yeah?

raw ermine
#

seems like the former london bench like to jump around

hot heart
#

its weird to think rascal was a benched player now

#

Profit was a starter so makes sense

#

Wait

#

What if

#

Rascal to seoul

#

Profit rascal

next mesa
#

what

hot heart
#

No thats too much power

next mesa
#

profit can play anything

#

that rascal can play

hot heart
#

I know

next mesa
#

except echo

hot heart
#

But

#

Imagine

raw ermine
#

profit to fusion is dumb

#

lmao

hot heart
#

Huh

#

Hmm

next mesa
#

honestly idk what seoul needs

#

dps wise

#

like

#

profit and fits

hot heart
#

Ivy is FA right?

next mesa
#

literally just covers everything

raw ermine
#

profit fits is fine

hot heart
#

I think seoul dont need much at dps

raw ermine
#

they need a dedicated off tank

next mesa
#

yes

raw ermine
#

a main support

#

and coaching thats better

next mesa
#

they are resigning tobi

#

if they are signing

#

jehong

#

because im pretty sure they are going together

#

ngl

hot heart
#

Wait so philly didnr re-sign Ivy

next mesa
#

dont think so

#

at least not eqo?

hot heart
#

They have to have something up their sleeve

#

Eqo is FA

#

His option was declined

#

Ill check Ivy's contract status

#

So

#

He's still in talks with fusion for 2021

#

But is looking at other opportunities

#

He's probably getting re-signed

raw ermine
#

god damn, imagine Mano-Fury Carpe-Rascal Alarm-Funnyastro coached by NineK. What a team

next mesa
#

and still manage to get only second place

raw ermine
#

true

hot heart
#

That would actually be the saddest thing in OW history

balmy wolf
#

not gonna overhype this team

#

they had a near perfect season last season and still lost in every tournament they went in

next mesa
#

well I mean

#

2 second places

hot heart
#

If you have ninek

next mesa
#

is quiet good

#

quite

hot heart
#

The pieces are there

#

And ninek is gonna drag them to a championship

balmy wolf
#

this is ninek 2nd HC position i believe

#

keep in mind he wasnt coaching paris that was rushes job

umbral zodiac
#

ninek was coaching for paris

balmy wolf
#

he wasnt

umbral zodiac
#

but officially his title was GM

#

yes he was

balmy wolf
#

rush was the HC at the end of the day

umbral zodiac
#

ninek was supposed to be a HC for paris, but rush came in

#

rush was hc, but ninek was also coaching paris

balmy wolf
#

and even then they still struggled

umbral zodiac
#

struggled how?

balmy wolf
#

just because teams got shock pieces doesn't mean they instantly become top tier

umbral zodiac
#

??????

balmy wolf
#

im just saying people gotta temper their expectations of what philly can do

clear crane
#

holy shit Mano is hugeeeeeeee

umbral zodiac
#

yea he's a big man

valid oxide
#

Psst, you want some leaks?

#

I called Mano to Fusion, and now I'm calling Fearless to Dallas

silk frost
#

bro no

hidden vault
#

But really mano and fury?

#

Hmm

#

I thought Philly is more aggressive?

#

And nyxl less?

#

Any main suuport philly can pick up and is better than astro?

sullen berry
#

just because teams got shock pieces doest mean they instantly become top tier
@balmy wolf exactly my point, the pieces are dropped from a championship team aren't all like decay or NineK

#

If we're going to see fearless on the Fuel

#

There's going to be lots to look forward to

valid oxide
#

Also MCD to Spark and Jerry to NYXL

sullen berry
#

Replacing libero or sbb anytime now

#

Who else is rumored for spark, I forgot

balmy wolf
#

idk we got rumors for spark

#

oh wait

#

mcd was rumored for spark

valid oxide
#

JJonak has been trialing for Spark, Charge, and Dynasty

sullen berry
#

No I was thinking of Shy

#

He's been rumored since inception due to age

balmy wolf
#

shy was signed to the team already

#

since he turned 18 recently

sullen berry
#

Yup

valid oxide
#

Oh, and Glister is gonna go to Justice

sullen berry
#

Based on what, again?

valid oxide
#

leaks

#

same one that called the Mano to Fusion

balmy wolf
#

just ask a some t2 players about trials they've been doing recently

sullen berry
#

Those same leaks that gave us mandu to Charge last year or Nero to Glads?

balmy wolf
#

i remember we saw trial pics of birdring on glads and people were iffy on it

valid oxide
#

Although Shu to Glads is holding up quite well now

balmy wolf
#

its only been like 2 weeks and this off-season is hella better than last year

sullen berry
#

It does

balmy wolf
#

the shu/moth duo is an old one

sullen berry
#

Better in what way? The power shift or bigger name players being traded?

balmy wolf
#

i'd say this year holds the strongest lineup of rookies we've seen in a while

#

china, KR, and even EU t2 players all have amazing players waiting to get picked up

sullen berry
#

How many rookies are being traded, I'd have to list them out really

#

I agree season 3 with what little we got midseason it was a splash at the start of the season

#

Making up for no new franchise slots to work out the Homestand model with all 20 teams

balmy wolf
#

NY finally changing something

#

wonder how yakpung is gonna turn out for them

hot heart
#

NYXL become apacs ATL

vague badger
#

The new spark training facility looks amazing

hot heart
#

It does

#

Looks so futuristic

#

And over the top

vague badger
#

Yee

#

I like that kind of aesthetic though so its good

#

They probably needed the upgrade after this season playing matches out of the teams' training facilities. Home stands coming back when covid clears up would be nice too

tropic herald
#

Just realized the Philly frontline is Mano Fury now

#

Jesus Christ

#

Talk about goated

valid oxide
#

Ye. Team Korea frontline!

#

I think their 2018 roster???

#

I forgot who played with Carpe tho

tropic herald
#

2018 was Fate Fury

#

Fleta Libero Carpe

valid oxide
#

Yeah, Mano was 2017 and 2019

hot heart
#

Philly really need a star Flex dps

#

Rascal is the only one at that top level

#

so maybe him

tropic herald
#

Ivy is a really good flex dps doe

#

I guess if they can sign rascal sure

#

Or maybe they go for Pelican

hot heart
#

Pain.

karmic grotto
#

mano

#

onam

hot heart
#

Anamo

#

Manamo

#

Manomo

karmic grotto
#

Pokpo to Dallas? That man was wasted in Reign

#

Rush can him unleash his full potential

#

Man's Winston is cracked

weak bolt
#

So Fusion to run two MT and two OT, or do we see somebody leave

hot onyx
#

If anyone leaves sadly I think it’s most likely poko

hot heart
#

Probably

plush grail
#

Poko could maybe join spitfire?

hot onyx
#

Or Paris

#

Paris kept all their french players maybe they’re going for a full eu route?

plush grail
#

ehhh no

#

all paris players are FA

hot onyx
#

Plus poko has previous synergy with Benbest and SoOn

plush grail
#

probably getting dropped cause paris is going budget

#

they can't afford a top player like poko

hot onyx
#

I can’t see paris dropping their french players

#

That would lose them a large chunk of their fanbase from France

plush grail
#

paris is broke rn

#

they're probably getting a cheap contenders team

hot onyx
#

I could see them picking up contenders eu players

#

And dropping xzi

#

But if they drop the french players they lose the popularity

#

Regardless of money they do all they can to keep players like benbest and fdgod

plush grail
#

yeah but top players like fdgod

#

are not staying for minimum pay

hot onyx
#

Yeah you’re probably right

#

But they already released the top players like sparkle@and hanbin

#

So maybe that’s all the budgeting

#

Cut costs on the expensive korean players and do everything in their power to keep the french players

#

And build a team with 6 players

#

SoOn Nico Benbest and FdGod of course to start

hot heart
#

What

hot onyx
#

Then they might pick up poko with the money they earned from playoffs

hot heart
#

Everyone on paris has been released

#

Except fdgod and Xzi

#

Yet

plush grail
#

the paris run is over

#

they're gonna pick up a cheap team

hot onyx
#

Contract expiring and free agency does not mean they are off the team

plush grail
#

and run with that for a while

#

paris is legit not able to pay those players

hot onyx
#

I mean they have more money than dallas

#

From where they placed in playoffs

plush grail
#

why would xzi and fdgod stay on a team where they're getting minimum pay when they can get a good chunk of money on a diffferent team

#

no

#

paris is broke

#

dallas is rich

#

dallas is owned by envyus

#

envyus is a massive or with tons of cash

hot onyx
#

Ok sorry thanks for correcting me

#

Almost forgot about that

plush grail
#

paris did make some good cash

#

but they probably had to spend that on the players they had

upper niche
#

Dallas don't have an infinite source of money.

plush grail
#

not infinite, but waaaay more than the other teams

upper niche
#

If you want that, you go to Boston :p

#

Just that Boston aren't putting any money in to the franchise anymore, they seem to have decided to leave it for dead.

plush grail
#

boston gave up

hot onyx
#

I mean

#

My best guess for bostons reputation is for new players to start out in owl and then move on

plush grail
#

the money in owl is just dumb

#

some teams have so much cash

#

and others can barely have contenders players

karmic grotto
#

How dumb? That's how it works

#

Every major league has rich clubs and less rich ones

hot onyx
#

But that’s not the case with this team because I personally don’t think any player on uprisings current roster other than myunbong would get signed to another team

plush grail
#

idk i just don't like how dallas is gonna keep buying full teams until it works out

#

this is attempt 2 now

karmic grotto
#

They never bought full teams

#

Except envy in S1

#

But they already existed as a team before owl

plush grail
#

they're picking up most of em rn

karmic grotto
#

Not a bad thing

#

They still have potential together

#

Synergy etc..

plush grail
#

also mano to fusion pog

#

he leaves the team that always chokes for the team that always ends at #2

hot onyx
#

The team that used to always end at #2

#

After shock releasing rascal and dragons releasing diem if fusion keep their current roster this is the year they get a title

plush grail
#

wait i just realised nyxl has no tanks at all now

hot onyx
#

Well yeah nxyl are gonna be rebuilding their entire roster

#

But weirdly enough as a fusion fan I’m not that hype for manos arrival

#

Sounds like I’m high I know but hear me out

#

Sado has performed out of his mind this season, playing far above everybody’s expectations

#

Making a name for himself as one of the best main tanks in the league, maybe even the best in some cases

#

He played way better than mano this season imo

#

Plus you have the synergy with sado and the team

#

So I feel that fusion got mano as a spare for when they need to play a more passive composition

#

If they use him as a full on replacement for sado I think that it will either be one of the best or one of the worst decisions made in esports

#

Not saying that mano is bad but compare his season this year to sado with team synergy thrown in the mix and it’s not really rocket science as to why sado would be the better choice for the starting position

#

I feel that mano himself would’ve been a good pickup for dallas if he’s wanting a starter position

#

Maybe even guangzhou if they’re planning on releasing rio

#

But that’s not happening and we can only wait and see wether this pickup will be the next starter or the next chipsa

next mesa
#

Xzi to uprising

plush light
#

Xzi to fuel

weak bolt
#

If Fusion are smart, Mano grinds Ball/Rein, Sado grinds Winston/Orisa. Rein was a weak point in Sado's game play and this fills the gap

raw ermine
#

If they keep both that's a potent tank line

weak bolt
#

If Philly really want to win, keeping both would be best

#

Sado can play aggressive, Mano passive. Dependant on meta, having options would be great

next mesa
#

Mano winston tho

#

Really a big nut

#

Maybe smurf can play a new tank

tropic herald
raw ermine
#

Noooooooooo

spiral edge
#

i really hope SF shock find a good healer that could replace moth but moth going means twilight gets to play more and it means we will be seeing the shock playing the ana more often

cobalt spoke
#

No

#

It doesnt

#

If moth leaves they need a new main support

#

Not a flex support to start playing mercy and lucio

next mesa
#

Yeah lol

#

Goodbye element mystic, see you soon

raw ermine

I know we all say this a lot

#

But God fucking dammit covid

Hope they return

vagrant jacinth
#

2020 keeps on taking

hot heart
#

At least they'll be back

#

If they completely left esports

#

That would've been depressing

raw ermine
#

what if Mandu went to SFS

#

to replace moth

weak bolt
#

Mandu, Slime or FDGod seem the likely choices

raw ermine
#

fdgod to sfs

#

omg

weak bolt
#

I think it's unlikely, but always a possibility. Depends how mixed Shock want to remain

hot heart
#

Slime Probably

#

Imagine if shock pull a fast one and sign LJG

raw ermine
#

Super has slandered LJG so much

hot heart
#

Tbh

#

LJG deserved it

raw ermine
#

he did

hot heart

Those playoff ints

#

ooh

#

interesting

vagrant jacinth
#

Wow, I don't remember him lmao

silk frost
#

damn I guess I am old

weak bolt
#

Doesnt Verbo retired and reappear every few months

raw ermine
#

not really

#

he left valiant, went to skyfoxes a month later, after a while became a manager, then left, the a large break happened, and now we're here

gilded dagger
#

idk what fusion is gonna do with mano

#

hope they do something good

plush light
#

yeah he was immortals with Fate, Envy, and Agilities
@silk frost you forgot kariv. XD

raw ermine
#

and GrimReality

plush light
#

GrimReality exists. I forgot

#

Soon was just so much better than him.

sullen berry
#

time to go another round in NA Contenders

raw ermine
#

hmm Team Doge is slowly losing players

#

Salieri and Hybrid left

next mesa
#

uh oh

silk frost
#

I didn't forgett kariv, just didn't mention

tawdry hamlet
#

Damn aspen is literally top 10 now in ladder, I wonder if she just hasn't been good enough in tryouts for league or at least an academy team

#

since I know league is her end goal

#

or maybe she wants to wait and see what happens with finnsi

tropic herald
#

Hasn’t she been on pretty meh teams

#

Like I don’t know if she is good or bad I just know the teams she’s on are all meh

tawdry hamlet
#

Doge was relatively good at one point

worn falcon
#

Doge was stomping

next mesa
#

God

#

That Mano translation

tropic herald
#

Oh yeah

#

If anyone watches ANS stream

#

He is moving to Afreeca TV

#

So yeah

next mesa
#

Tf

#

This is a fucming

#

GWmythicalFeelsSadMan moment

next mesa
#

dropped mandu

tropic herald
#

Yea

#

Pain

#

What if

#

Mandu went to Dallas

#

Or maybe Boston

#

I’d be really okay with either

worn falcon
#

Mandu to Outlaws

#

like Mek0

silk frost
#

or Florida

#

or Justice

raw ermine
#

Mandu joins myungbong

silk frost
#

dude

#

that would be monsterous

karmic grotto
#

Wild prediction here

#

Crusty knows potential when he sees it

#

He will acquire Mandu

tropic herald
#

That could be a possibility too

#

But Myunb0ng do be on Boston

silk frost
#

idk

next mesa
#

Myunbong

#

Best fs

solar bison
#

Well

#

There’s Alarm and Viol2t

#

But myunbong is good

hidden vault
#

Twilight

next mesa
#

myunbong > alarm

solar bison
#

True

hot heart
#

Myungbang

silk frost
#

I'd say Twilight is best

#

his Moira and Ana are definitely #1, his Zen is top 3, his bap is okay,

#

only argument is Alarm because Alarm is more flexible

#

Myungbong is a more offensively good ana but his bap and moira are solidly worse than Twilight imo

hot heart
#

If viol2t had a good ana he would be #1 i think

#

Best zen and bap in the league i think

balmy wolf
#

stats wise viol2t has a top 5 ana

#

however people circle jerk that he doesnt have a good ana

#

granted its not something we dont see a lot, but hes worst hero is still better than the majority of the league

plush light
#

Fielder > jjonak
On ana. Zen is comparable.

hot heart
#

If dallas pick up mandu that would be really fucking good

#

Fielder Mandu

#

Holy

plush light
#

Is Anamo really better than Mandu?

weak bolt
#

Anamo is a safe reliable bet if you're nyxl. Mandu probably has more potential, but seemed to also be a bit more risky

next mesa
#

Nah I think we all know that viol2ts ana is good, it's just that twilight is on his team

native bramble
#

Nooo rip Mandu

#

They still got jjonak

raw ermine
#

I could see jjonak leave nyxl. Being fed up

plush light
#

I could see surefour going to London as a player or content creator given how long he was on c9

raw ermine
#

Doubt its as a player, he probably wants to retire and london wants EU players

plush light
#

Agilities to titans

#

Or Manguchu

weak bolt
#

Titans are probably paying minimum salaries, so chances are they're gonna wait it out a while before signings

#

No point rushing to get people at 50k. Wait a few weeks/months and then have your choice of the desperate remains

hot heart
#

Imagine being vancouver rn

#

Or a vancouver fan

#

Literally every other team has a better chance of winning something than you

tough wharf
#

even boston?

hot heart
#

Ye

#

They re-signed myungbong

#

Thats better than anything vancouver could do tbh

#

And they have Fusions and punk

#

Not insanely good

#

But fine

next mesa
#

Lmfao that's facts

#

No matter what for titans half of your team is like mediocre at best

weak bolt
#

Could be worse, could be a Paris fan

balmy wolf
#

im a shanghai and Houston fan

trail perch
#

IM A PARIS FAN!

#

But now im a dallas washington fan

umbral zodiac
#

jjonak is better than fielder on ana imo

next mesa
#

maybe

#

haven't seen them play

noble nexus
#

yeah I mean we've only seen fielder on 200 ping and he looks clean so he's probably a nut on low ping

#

either that or he's so used to high ping he just flops l0l

next mesa
#

bruh

#

you only play better

#

on low ping

#

wym

noble nexus
#

I mean it was a joke but if he's actually so used to playing on high ping surely it would take time to adjust to low ping again

next mesa
#

perhaps

#

I think he will be even more of a nut doe

noble nexus
#

considering it's such a big difference between 200 ping and lower ping

next mesa
#

I mean cmon you're already pretty insane on 200 ping

noble nexus
#

yeah he's a fucking nut rn

plush light
#

Its worse if your a s1 boston fan

noble nexus
#

wasn't s1 boston good?

#

and then they just went downhill

plush light
#

I meant in the off-season after season 1

noble nexus
#

oh yeah

#

that offseason made them bottom feeders for 2 years

#

l0l

plush light
#

When they signed c-hex and blasé as their dps duo

noble nexus
#

yeahh

#

I don't think c-hex is that bad

#

he's probably like below average

#

but not horrible

#

atleast they're looking better than the titans this offseason

chilly obsidian
#

i like the dragons

raw ermine
#

Season one boston was the best they were. They had striker, and Gamsu-Note in a dive meta

silk frost
#

And neko and kellex on their best heroes

raw ermine
#

yeah

#

and he who shall not be named

hot heart
#

He fucked his career

#

I remember him being pretty good

#

Then shit went down

noble nexus
#

shame he was a fuckin degen

cobalt spoke
#

Who?

trail perch
#

||Dreamkapzer||

#

I think

hot heart
#

Ye

#

Welp

#

Good riddance

#

Anyway

#

Any talk about where mandu is going

trail perch
#

Maybe dallas?

#

Or Philly

hot heart
#

Or anything about sado

#

He wouldn't go to philly

trail perch
#

Why not, if philly gets rascal and mandu, they have all korean

hot heart
#

You're competing against an established top lucio

trail perch
#

and that would be much better for coms

#

but what else does astro have?

hot heart
#

Shock dont have a lucio

weak bolt
#

Why are we assuming Sado is leaving

hot heart
#

Mechanics

#

Tbh

trail perch
#

astros brig and bap arent the best

weak bolt
#

If Philly are willing to run Poko/Fury all year, they'd be happy to do Mano/Sado

hot heart
#

Im not assuming im just thinking whats phillys plan for him

trail perch
#

there is no reason to keep sado

#

Fury and poko had there own reasons

weak bolt
#

Sado plays a lot more aggressive than Mano

hot heart
#

He does

#

So maybe that yeah

trail perch
#

Like in game leaders, but there is no reason to have sado in when mano is better

hot heart
#

Hopefully NineK sorts that out

trail perch
#

Mano can definetly play agressiv

#

e

weak bolt
#

I'd almost say you could pair them up, Sado/Fury for hyper aggro metas, and Mano/Poko for more defensive ones

tropic herald
#

Mano is very aggro...

trail perch
#

Have you seen s2 nyxl

tropic herald
#

Like watch mano on rein and ball

hot heart
#

Mano is a playmaker

#

He's smarter than sado i think

trail perch
#

Mano can switch his entire style to fit anything

weak bolt
#

Mano isn't a big playmaker at all, even Super said so lately

trail perch
#

There is no reason for Sado when Mano is there

hot heart
#

On rein

#

I think he is

tropic herald
#

Bro watch s2 NU

#

NY

trail perch
#

Super isnt the fucking gold standard for ideas

tropic herald
#

Mano is a play maker on rein

trail perch
#

Not everything he says is correct

weak bolt
#

Perhaps, but he's also the one who's played against Mano and knows MT better than allof us

trail perch
#

Remember when he said Viol2t is the best player in the world?

hot heart
#

Yeah

trail perch
#

when hes not even the best support?

tropic herald
#

Who are you putting over Viol2t on support?

trail perch
#

Twilight

hot heart
#

Yeah

#

Eh

tropic herald
#

Really huh

hot heart
#

Nah

trail perch
#

or alarm

weak bolt
#

For Ana maybe, but thats it

hot heart
#

If its not Ana

trail perch
#

Becuas of moira and ana

hot heart
#

Then just no

trail perch
#

Because

hot heart
#

Yeah moira too

weak bolt
#

Viol2t is far better on Zen/Bap/Moira than Twilight

hot heart
#

But his zen bap

trail perch
#

Not moira

#

And its not a far better

hot heart
#

Honestly just fucking insane

tropic herald
#

I’d say Viol2t Bap is even to Twilight

trail perch
#

They are definetly comprable

tropic herald
#

You just got very diff play styles

weak bolt
#

If twilight was better, he'd have played finals

trail perch
#

Not true, they ran zen for finals

tropic herald
#

Viol2t is so insanely good at zen

hot heart
#

I think viol2t is better

#

Bur

trail perch
#

and Viol2t has a better zen

tropic herald
#

Not running him is a throw

hot heart
#

Twighlight is still on the same level

tropic herald
#

Yeah

hot heart
#

Viol2t just has the edge on some heroes

trail perch
#

Yall are also sleeping on alarm

hot heart
#

And twighlight has the edge on others

tropic herald
#

I like Alarm on Ana a lot

trail perch
#

Who is very comprable in all of these characters

hot heart
#

Alarm has been freakish

weak bolt
#

Alarm is good, again best on Ana. His Zen isn't at Viol2ts level

trail perch
#

Talking pure stats, Viol2t and twilight are the best

#

on Zen

#

With alarm next

#

and then Jjonack

#

jjonak

tropic herald
#

I assume Shu and Izayaki fit in somewhere next

trail perch
#

yes

hot heart
#

Yeah

tropic herald
#

Probably GangNamJin and Lastro too

#

And Foelder

trail perch
#

with bdosin and crimzo

hot heart
#

Myungbong

#

Huh

#

Crimzo

trail perch
#

Crimzo is fucking insane

#

have you seen his stats

tropic herald
#

Remember when Dallas had really bug scrimbuxs

weak bolt
#

I just think you could keep Sado for Orisa/Winston metas and Mano for Rein/Ball. Have them split focus and specialise more

tropic herald
#

Big

hot heart
#

I've watched him improve alot in OWL

#

But he's not some god support imo

trail perch
#

on moira crimzo is top 5

#

on zen easy top 7

hot heart
#

So

trail perch
#

on ana, top 10

hot heart
#

How

#

Does that work

next mesa
#

Crimzo sucks

trail perch
#

Your just wrong

#

you're

next mesa
#

Lol

hot heart
#

At the end of the season

next mesa
#

Are you a fanboy

hot heart
#

He wasnt bad at all

#

But tbb

weak bolt
#

Crimzo is ok, but he's probably not good enough to secure a top team

trail perch
#

Im talking pure stats

hot heart
#

Hes not top 10

#

On anything

trail perch
#

healing and damage

hot heart
#

He's fine tho for a mid tier team

#

Dallas int

weak bolt
#

I doubt he'll even be in OWL next year unless he's willing to join a budget team

hot heart
#

He farms stats

#

He probably is willing to join budget teams tbh

weak bolt
#

Toronto may sign him as the token canadian I guess

hot heart
#

Eh

#

Depending on torontos plan

#

Maybe

trail perch
#

His stats are genuinley top 10

hot heart
#

Maybe not

#

Again

#

Dallas int

noble nexus
#

his stats are probably padded

trail perch
#

And thats just a fact

hot heart
#

He farms stats

noble nexus
#

dallas feed a little bit

#

he's definitely pretty good on moira tho

next mesa
#

he's okay

trail perch
#

If he was on a better team then everyone would be hyping him up

hot heart
#

No

#

No one would

trail perch
#

Yes

hot heart
#

Crimzo is crimzo

noble nexus
#

yeah I don't know about that

next mesa
noble nexus
#

he's just pretty mediocre

next mesa
#

Crimzo sucks

hot heart
#

Yeah

trail perch
#

Thats months old

hot heart
#

Okay?

trail perch
#

From like may

next mesa
#

so?

noble nexus
#

yeah that doesn't invalidate it

trail perch
#

Ever heard of improvement?

next mesa
#

didn't you say he was top 10 in stats

trail perch
#

Yes

#

Look at the end of year stats

hot heart
#

@trail perch make a list of your top FS

trail perch
#

Ok

hot heart
#

Top 5 or 10

#

I genuinely wanna see this

next mesa
#

lol

hot heart
#

Crimzo Best FS in OWL

#

Top 1

#

Insane

#

MVP

noble nexus
#

not even close

hot heart
#

ROTY

weak bolt
#

Crimzo ain't getting on a top team this year. If he was top 10, he'd likely be joining one

hot heart
#

Built different

noble nexus
#

he should've gotten ROTY

hot heart
#

True

noble nexus
#

just stolen from him

hot heart
#

Crimzo ain't getting on a top team this year. If he was top 10, he'd likely be joining one
@weak bolt yeah

next mesa
#

crimzo prob gonna be dropped

#

there's more talent in contenders

noble nexus
#

yeah I think he's a great pickup for a team that aren't willing to spend much on a FS

trail perch
#

Twilight, viol2t, alarm, izayaki, shu, jjonak, fielder, creative, bdosin, crimzo, myungbong

#

top 11

hot heart
#

bro

#

Nah

next mesa
#

you put myunbong below crimzo

hot heart
#

Im not gonna even think about thag

noble nexus
#

is that in order?

next mesa
#

myunbong > alarm

trail perch
#

yes

next mesa
#

lol

weak bolt
#

crimzo 14th highest healing for Ana in S3

hot heart
#

What is this man doing

next mesa
#

how many teams total like

#

20

weak bolt
#

That's out of 23 Ana

trail perch
#

How many flex supports?

hot heart
#

So

#

Middle of the pack

next mesa
#

who's even below crimzo

#

crimzo is pretty bad

#

kariv?

#

molly?

hot heart
#

Ye

next mesa
#

wait send me link for stats I cant find it

hot heart
#

The weird thing is

#

They're all pretty good

noble nexus
#

Yeah FS is a stacked role

hot heart
#

But their teams were ass

#

Hmm

#

What if

weak bolt
#

Crimzo at 8.4k HP/10, and Fielder at 12.2k HP/10

next mesa
#

myunbong was clearly better than alarm in contenders

#

it's just tragic he landed in boston tbh

hot heart
#

Glads pull a fast one and get their hands on molly

weak bolt
#

Roolf is at 10.2k HP/10 and you can bet Titans need just as much healing as Fuel

hot heart
#

Actually

#

Can you check CarCars stats?

weak bolt
#

For Lucio?

next mesa
#

carcar

hot heart
#

Ye

weak bolt
#

Btw

next mesa
#

and roolf

#

worst support duo

weak bolt
#

Crimzo is the 3rd worst Moira fo rhealing

hot heart
#

Lmao

#

Aight

weak bolt
#

Only beat Kyo and Highly per 10 mins

hot heart
#

Kyo

hot heart
#

That dude didnt even play for most of the season if im not mistaken

trail perch
#

set it to only support characters

#

and the entire season

#

Crimzo rates very consistantly on the top end

next mesa
#

who's kyo

#

lmfao

weak bolt
#

Honestly Crimzo's stats look like he's inflated his offensive stats because Dallas were awful

hot heart
#

He's on Chengdu

#

A FS

next mesa
#

the truth is

#

he's not korean

hot heart
#

O

next mesa
#

and when you're not korean and you're in the fs role

#

sorry you're just bad

hot heart
#

It do be like that

trail perch
#

Seems like ur just a lunatic high korean simp

hot heart
#

Huh

#

Name a good western FS

trail perch
#

Crimzo

hot heart
#

Not

#

Bro

trail perch
#

But yall just arent listening to facts

hot heart
#

you know what

#

Im not wasting my time

raw ermine
#

their really aren't any good western flex supports

hot heart
#

Lmao

#

Nah not really

next mesa
#

@trail perch nah im just not stupid lmfao

earnest leaf
#

Sleepy suprCOOM

trail perch
#

yes

weak bolt
#

What stats of Crimzo should we be looking at?

trail perch
#

healing and damage/elims per 10

#

consistantly at the very top

weak bolt
#

I looked a thealing per 10

silk frost
#

There are plenty of good non-korean flex supports

weak bolt
#

He's 3rd from bottom on Moira

silk frost
#

Especially in Contendies

#

Molly is very good

#

Crimzo isn't awful

hot heart
#

He isnt

#

Just not good

#

He's okay

trail perch
#

your just wrong

next mesa
#

molly is asian it counts

hot heart
#

How

silk frost
#

I'd say he or roolf has to be considered good

trail perch
#

crimzo is above jjonak

hot heart
#

Am i at all wronf

silk frost
#

Ripa is very good

trail perch
#

on healing per 10 on moira

#

all season long

silk frost
#

Well that's a bloated stat if there ever was one

#

Everyone knows Jjonak sucks at Moira

trail perch
#

yeah but still

#

hes top 10 on the list

earnest leaf
#

Are people trying to use stats to prove the skill of a player

weak bolt
trail perch
#

I was using jjonak as a benchmark

silk frost
#

I mean Crimzo was a decent player for the Fuel

next mesa
#

crimzo was okay

earnest leaf
#

He's not bad

hot heart
#

Okay

#

So

earnest leaf
#

Just nothing special

next mesa
#

but you think he's top 10

#

and it's like
