next mesa
#

yeah speaking of which

#

so mag isn't gonna play?

silk frost

2 players to chengdu chasers

silk frost
#

silk frost
#

maybe CC can find a good roster

#

off tank

next mesa
#

actually

silk frost
#

not roster

next mesa
#

since so many of them went to owl

silk frost
#

any hidden gemmers for CC

#

Revival or Odyssey may be your favorites to win

#

I'm so sad we don't get the clash of the 2020 titans

#

full power CC vs full power BH

next mesa
#

lmao

#

imagine like a week before gauntlet starts

#

london just signs the whole bh

silk frost
#

oh fuck off lmao

#

no way lol

#

what if A Bang win

next mesa
#

sure

silk frost
#

First Fabulous Fighter is the only team from China or Korea that has been untouched by OWL

#

and they're also the only chinese team with a western player, Dank the Aussie

raw ermine
#

I was worried they would

silk frost
#

who would what?

raw ermine
#

LS would sign BH a week b4 gauntlet

balmy wolf
#

i mean even if they do poorly it can't be that bad if u grab the core and put them in owl

raw ermine
#

yeah

#

grab ball OW, so some other EU players, probably better than paris s1

balmy wolf
#

that would be funny if they did sign ball for some reason

plush grail
#

what ended up happening to yeatle

digital cloud
#

idk

#

nothing probably

plush grail
#

did he ever get backlash for that

tropic herald
#

Lots of it

#

Then no one cared

digital cloud
#

I doubt anyone cared enough about him to backlash

plush grail
#

lmao imagine trying to coach the yottachad

#

also do y'all see sbb or jjonak getting picked up?

#

libero and anamo are for sure getting signed

tropic herald
#

SBB maybe as a coach

#

Or something

#

If Libero doesn’t get picked up that’s a crime

#

Anamo to

plush grail
#

yeah libero is still amazing

#

anamo isn't anything special

#

but super solid

#

jjonak is just too resource heavy

#

and the dps fa are stacked rn

#

wait what nyxl didn't release jjonak

#

i could swear i saw a goodbye post for him

supple prism
#

Wait, what the fuck is NYXL doing

plush grail
#

idk tbh

#

they dropped some super flexible players but kept jjonak?

tropic herald
#

NY are supposedly picking up some pretty good pieces

#

Yakpung Gwangboong Ivy

#

Who were the others

plush grail
#

they're good pickups

#

but like of the 4 they had left, why is jjonak the one they keep

tropic herald
#

Feathers is another piece they supposed to get

#

Seems so weird that they dropped both Anamo and Mandu though

supple prism
#

Hey, other teams have dropped more players in following days before so it's still possible

plush grail
#

yeah they dropped 2 top tier ms

#

who tf is gonna be the nyxl ms in season 4

tropic herald
#

SLime and Sanguinar are both FA

plush grail
#

also is rascal to nyxl possible

#

I know rascal left the shock but maybe they ended up trading for libero?

balmy wolf
#

well he cant be traded since hes a free agent rn

plush grail
#

it must be hard being a dps player rn

#

trying to get a owl spot when fuckin rascal and libero are lft

balmy wolf
#

not as hard as u think

#

i imagine rascal is close to a deal with a team already

plush grail
#

rascal to chengdu for sure

weak bolt
#

That's almost Lastro level game chat

raw ermine
#

lmaooooo

#

contenders chat

plush grail
#

lol was he playing against numlocked

raw ermine
#

not contenders?

weak bolt
#

yeah I assume he was playing Numlockeds team

raw ermine
#

I thought they played together?

#

on YAB

plush grail
#

imagine not making owl and getting called cumlocked by the guy who is getting picked up with his entire team

#

actually boomed

weak bolt
#

ah yeah both on YAB

#

Maybe he said it as a spectator or something lol

raw ermine
#

Hafficool?

plush grail
#

wait no fuck for some reason i assumed hafficool was on bh

#

because swedish

raw ermine
#

nah

#

thats hadi and molf1g

weak bolt
#

Hafficool was on the OG BH

#

with Kragie, Astro and Fusions

raw ermine
#

yeah

#

kyb

#

bock1

plush grail
#

imagine

#

miro comes back

#

and just fucks as winston

cedar oasis
#

Lmao cumlocked

weak bolt
#

lololol Justice

#

RIP

forest raven
#

Yeah good one washington

#

Sign MAG drop literally every other good player

tropic herald
#

@forest raven it’s bait

weak bolt
#

Ah damn is that a fake account

#

It was liked by Florida Mayhem's official account lol

raw ermine
#

wash_justice

#

lmao

forest raven
#

Goddamnit

raw ermine
#

thank god

balmy wolf
#

closer is rummored to go to justice

raw ermine
#

tbf sanguinar is a good as kris, if not worse

balmy wolf
#

same with bebe and ria

weak bolt
#

Official teams liking bait posts is trolling to a new level

hoary sierra
weak bolt
#

I'd love to know if renewed, or renegotiated

raw ermine
#

pog

silk frost
#

interesting

weak bolt
#

Wonder if they can actually change him, or they're doomed for another season of meh

silk frost
#

he is undeniably mechanically gifted I teel

#

feel*

#

still imt head coach

weak bolt
#

Yeah his aim is fine, it's the playstyle that needs changing

silk frost
#

so probably in the dumps for 2021

weak bolt
#

From everything I've heard, IMT wants NYXL to play a lot different to what they do, but he couldnt get the old roster to do that

#

and that's probably lead to the clear out

silk frost
#

he thinks JJONAK can?!

#

we've seen mano do different playstyles

#

now I'm starting to think the NYXL staff are stupid

weak bolt
#

I think you swap Mano just to get a clean slate

silk frost
#

fair

weak bolt
#

They may even have Jjonak as a backup FS honestly

silk frost
#

I'd rather keep mano than jjonak tbh

weak bolt
#

Get another FS as starter, and use Jjonak if you have a double FS meta

vagrant jacinth
#

Jjonak

weak bolt
#

Contenders is live btw if people are after the skins for Nov

plush light
#

Where will Luffy go?

fringe laurel
#

Back to finding the one piece

noble nexus
#

Jjonak's contract has been renewed

#

wtf are NYXL doing

plush light
#

LJG to nyxl
Feed!!!!!!!

silk frost
#

bumper ljg jjonak

cedar oasis
#

Dont erster and fleta have the same hero pool

raw ermine
#

similar

#

Erster might have a better tracer

#

and I dont think he plays widow

tropic herald
#

iirc erster can also flex out of dps too

raw ermine
#

to brig lul

upper niche
#

Oof. Saebeolbe, Libero and Anamo all free agents.

cobalt spoke
#

Jjonak is just marketing at this point

#

He fell off already

upper niche
#

And Bdosin, Bianca, Manu, Ark, Nenne, Hotba, Pavane, Rascal all up in the air too? wtf is going on.

raw ermine
#

pavane retired

#

ark retired

sturdy drift
#

Mostly marketing, sure, but a damn good one

#

I’d say 70% of nyxl fans were mostly just there for jjonak

silk frost
#

bro Fleta is a better tracer

#

by a mile

#

then Erster is probably a better genji and a similar Mei

next mesa
#

why did nyxl resign jjonak LOL

sturdy drift
#

marketing

#

literally all of their remaining fans are jjonak fans

next mesa
#

Doubt they're still any nyxl fans

#

When they released like 3 players

sturdy drift
#

again, I said "remaining"

#

a lot of NYXL fans already left to follow their favourite players

#

remaining ones are 100% jjonak fans

#

and i doubt ivy, yakpung, feath5r has enough fans to make up for them

raw ermine
silk frost
#

interesting

#

who do Chengdu pick up then?

#

maybe Mmonk on a 2way and rely on Kyo

#

oh shit nvm

raw ermine
#

kyo is on chasers

silk frost
#

why do Chengdu keep getting their grimy hands on the chinese tracer gods

#

ik I googled it

raw ermine
#

lmao

silk frost
#

why does team Chaser have a better logo than Chegndu

#

chengdu

balmy wolf
#

u mean how the logo is a oxymoron to the team name?

#

hunters but the logo is a panda

silk frost
#

no like

#

it's a fine logo

#

but team chaser has an awesome logo

raw ermine
#

diya's the last tracer god they gotta get

next mesa
#

DIYA DIYA DIYA PLEASEEEEEEEEEEE 🥺

silk frost
#

diya ;-;

raw ermine
next mesa
#

long way to go to moth level MeiHeh

noble nexus
#

limber pine
next mesa
#

So lige and bernar

solar bison
#

Interesting

next mesa
#

Okay sure

solar bison
#

Not bad though

tropic herald
#

12 man

#

They going for the internal scrims

solar bison
#

Adds some friendly competition for the starting roster spot

limber pine
#

Somebody said they’re doing a full Chinese 6 and full Korean 6

next mesa
#

Ok then where the fuck is diya

limber pine
#

idk if that’s official

next mesa
#

Bitch

limber pine
#

next mesa
#

DIYA 👏

#

Jjonak looking lonely on the nyxl liquidpedia page 😔

silk frost
#

NO MY BABY LIGE

#

DON'T TAKE TIME AWAY FROM MY CHINESE KING

noble nexus
#

god watching super play ds3 is pain

full sail
#

i dont watch much comp esports but dose sleepy still play?

noble nexus
#

nah he hasn't played since like s2

full sail
#

oh damn really wasnt he really good with ana and zen

noble nexus
#

he was kinda good from what I remember

#

Justice just weren't that good

full sail
#

i thought he played for shock

noble nexus
#

he got signed to justice midseason 2 I think

#

or s1 offseason

#

idfk

#

he went to justice tho

full sail
#

oh ok i really need to watch comp esports

#

is it fun to watch ive watched valorant and rl but havent watched overwatch

noble nexus
#

overwatch is the only esport I watch

#

it's pretty fun to watch

#

it's also fun to get invested in like mini story arcs that teams and players have

#

like shanghai going from 0-40 to stage champs to #1 in APAC

full sail
#

damn ight bet is there esports for ow going on rn?

noble nexus
#

the t2 scene is having some tourneys and games

full sail
#

oh ok bet

noble nexus
#

owl just ended so it's just player contracts being given and expiring

#

and shit like that

#

contenders is pretty entertaining if you watch different regions cuz they usually play unique metas

silk frost
#

My baby lige's not gonna get no playtime

limber pine
#

He could

digital cloud
#

I mean, bernar is good, but lige is one of the better ones

limber pine
#

It’s tough to say anything really about S3 spitfire

#

How good or bad they really were

silk frost
#

Sure we know that

#

but does pajion

#

LOL

balmy wolf
#

Boom thinks Houston Outlaws are looking good this year

#

With Danteh

silk frost
#

Didnt we say that in 2019 and 2020

digital cloud
#

yes we did

balmy wolf
#

Boom says yes we did

digital cloud
#

well, we thought they looked better

silk frost
#

did we?

#

did we really?

#

Muma didn't look better I'll tell ya that

digital cloud
#

well we were wrong

#

but before the season

#

we were like "oooh, meko"

#

"ooh, support upgrades"

balmy wolf
#

Boom says MUMA is washed

#

And linkzer

silk frost
#

And Ty agrees

digital cloud
#

grike says stop talking in third person

balmy wolf
#

Boom wonders why Grike is cranky

digital cloud
#

grike wants the admin to delete your messages again

silk frost
#

Grike's a cranky bum

digital cloud
#

shut up

silk frost
#

But we love grike

digital cloud
#

no

balmy wolf
#

Boom also loves Grike

digital cloud
#

the love hurts me

silk frost
#

Lol

balmy wolf
#

Boom wonders what past trauma has insinuated this hatred for love in his life, as well as the mental cognitions that could have led up toward it

silk frost
#

Oh lord

#

Uh

#

Bernar huh

#

Think Lige can beat him our for a starter spot?

digital cloud
#

if he is as good in owl as he was in contendies

balmy wolf
#

Wow that Boom guy sure was a pain in the butt

digital cloud
#

he looks like he is probably void choi level based off that

#

the hell

balmy wolf
#

I’d like to see Lidge do well too, good prospect

digital cloud
#

yeah, lidge looking good

#

go lidge

balmy wolf
#

Go lidge

silk frost
#

Lige could be that good but like

#

He also could be spree level

digital cloud
#

I mean, I thought gator and hawk were good based off of contendies

silk frost
#

He has a huge range depending on how Pain does with him

digital cloud
#

so you know

silk frost
#

I didnt but hey

balmy wolf
#

Gator and Hawk were such a letdown

digital cloud
#

we would need to see results first

silk frost
#

That was a lucky call

balmy wolf
#

Hawk was a feeder, I don’t care about stats

silk frost
#

Hawk was serviceable

#

Gator was the feeder imo

digital cloud
#

he had no support

#

dogman lol

balmy wolf
#

Hawk reminded me of that one guy from High school musical

silk frost
#

Polo was better when he played imo

#

Pokpo

#

Wtf auto correct

balmy wolf
#

Yeah Pokpo was underrated

#

So was Easter

#

Erster

silk frost
#

Just goes to show how BAD sephy is

balmy wolf
#

Trash coach

#

Erster and Pokpo left in to develop team synergy, season could have looked much better

digital cloud
#

and now erster gone

#

sadge

balmy wolf
#

Rip, easy pickup for Shanghai

digital cloud
#

watch erster look mvp level again after getting a good coach

silk frost
#

Idk I never rated him THAT highly

digital cloud
#

watch meko look good after getting booted from houston

silk frost
#

High tier in s2 sure

digital cloud
#

well you are wrong, erster was great

silk frost
#

But I don't think he'll be top 5 or anything

balmy wolf
#

Hard to rate him when be was benched so often and only came in on mei

#

And junkrat

limber pine
#

ATL just seemed invested in using Edison instead

balmy wolf
#

?

digital cloud
#

edison is decent as well

balmy wolf
#

You mean sharp

digital cloud
#

but come on, they used fucking saucy over erster on genji

#

or whoever that was

balmy wolf
#

Lmaooo

silk frost
#

Yeah its pepega

limber pine
#

No they forced Edison into some roles erster normally plays

silk frost
#

Tracer namely

digital cloud
#

ah, you mean that

limber pine
#

Not saying Edison is bad

digital cloud
#

eh, edison might have been the better tracer

limber pine
#

Just idk why you wouldn’t play erster

silk frost
#

Maybe they didn't rate him

#

Or he underpreformed in scrims

#

Or they thought Edison was better with Babybay

limber pine
#

Well sure

balmy wolf
#

Edison was the hitscan of the team

limber pine
#

Obviously atl has that answer

balmy wolf
#

Oh my god don’t get me started on Babybay

digital cloud
#

or sephy is just ass

silk frost
#

They had THREE hitscans

balmy wolf
#

Babybad

silk frost
#

Babybay was good tho

digital cloud
#

getting destroyed with the rest of faze in valorant now

#

they probably aren't even making first strike lol

limber pine
#

But if erster comes out the better, atl is gonna look real bad

digital cloud
#

I bet he does

#

though maybe not much more

silk frost
#

Oh he surely will

limber pine
#

Even if it was the right decision

balmy wolf
#

Yeah the Faze players make the Overwatch scene look like trash

digital cloud
#

thing is, they have aim

#

but the brain

silk frost
#

Thank you Mr. Sinatraa

digital cloud
#

the brain is not there

#

same for saya

#

he is very inconsistent on t1

#

but they have him on omen

silk frost
#

Isn't sinatraa like the best player in Valorant

digital cloud
#

most people say tenz

balmy wolf
#

Top 3

digital cloud
#

but he is usually top three for most people

balmy wolf
#

Very good

digital cloud
#

wardell, tenz, him

#

roughly the top three

silk frost
#

What teams are they all on

digital cloud
#

sinatraa is sen

silk frost
#

I know Sinatraa is Sentinels

digital cloud
#

tenz is c9

balmy wolf
#

Wardell TSM?

digital cloud
#

and like the only reason c9 wins

#

wardell tsm

silk frost
#

Pog

digital cloud
#

c9 is known as tenz and friends

balmy wolf
#

Lol

silk frost
#

C9 bad?

digital cloud
#

nah, they are decent

#

but tenz carries them

#

unlikely they would be tier 1 like they are without him

silk frost
#

Yeah c9-tenz bad?

#
  • is minus here
digital cloud
#

well, like, if they didn't have tenz, they would be bottom of tier1/top of tier2

#

they are definitely contenders with him, and likely not without

silk frost
#

So... Boston?

digital cloud
#

eh

#

more like . . .

#

dallas

#

probably

silk frost
#

I feel like Toronto would actually be a good comparison actually

balmy wolf
#

Dallas is going to roll next season

#

EZ clap

digital cloud
#

that is what dallas fans always think

silk frost
#

Calm down bro

#

Its EM without Ninek

#

Also they lack a MS star

balmy wolf
#

Jecse will do, its not an incredibly impactful role

silk frost
#

Its one of the most impactful

balmy wolf
#

??

silk frost
#

You see how bad Kris is

#

Or Halo

#

Then you see it when FDgod or Moth carry

balmy wolf
#

They’re whole team is bad though

digital cloud
#

didn't a team pick up kris too?

#

lol

silk frost
#

No

balmy wolf
#

Shock and Paris teams are outstanding

#

They get carried 🤷‍♂️

silk frost
#

Hard no

balmy wolf
#

They’re both top tier, but replaceable

#

I’m my humble opinion

silk frost
#

MS are leaders, shotcallers, and Lucio is easily top 3 hardest heroes

balmy wolf
#

Idk

#

Then they get to play mercy too

silk frost
#

And if you want a good team with bad MS, look at 2020 Glads

#

Mercy does more than most people think

digital cloud
#

mercy trash

silk frost
#

Mercy controls ult economies

balmy wolf
#

Mercy trash

digital cloud
#

only good for pocketing

#

bad character

#

just like hog

silk frost
#

Bro Mercy is a VERY impactful hero

digital cloud
#

so are all heros

balmy wolf
#

Chara was one of the worst main supports in the league, GZ still took a stage

silk frost
#

A good mercy will make their team get up to 30% faster ults in every position

#

Chara isn't that bad

balmy wolf
#

By holding right click

#

Chara was a feeeeeeeder

silk frost
#

You reach GM on mercy then

digital cloud
#

I am

balmy wolf
#

Ok let me go get a good dps player, be back in 2 days

silk frost
#

Lol fair

digital cloud
#

I am the guy that pockets necros

silk frost
#

It isn't just holding right click

digital cloud
#

yeah, it is also

#

pressing shift

balmy wolf
#

Oh yeah I forgot about pressing shift

digital cloud
#

and then realizing that you do no healing compared to good characters

#

and that your ult is bad

#

and that rez is worse than immort

silk frost
#

Bro 99% of people don't realize you can cancel guardian halfway through

#

Or they don't know the button

digital cloud
#

all that requires is looking it up

balmy wolf
#

Or they are bad

silk frost
#

Literally no one Ive coached hasn't known

#

Has known*

balmy wolf
#

Are they plats

silk frost
#

From silver to GM

digital cloud
#

umm

#

idiots

#

I guess

balmy wolf
#

Are you coaching toddlers son

silk frost
#

Most of them didn't play during moth meta

#

They just played Lucio or brig

digital cloud
#

literally look up "mercy guardian cancel"

#

literally right there

silk frost
#

Never have to play mercy because they either don't want to or shouldn't

#

Yeah but who tf takes time out of their day to google that of all things

digital cloud
#

I mean, I don't think you should be playing mercy 99% of the time

#

and I am a tank player

#

but I still know about it

#

I have played the game for 4 years

#

it would be odd if I didn't

silk frost
#

You've played it for four yeara

#

Years

tidal ridge
#

ok so bernar

silk frost
#

Most people haven't

tidal ridge
#

hangzhou the new london apparently

digital cloud
#

their loss

#

yeah, just about

silk frost
#

Most of contenders talent in OT now are sign 1 tricks

digital cloud
#

but with lige

silk frost
#

Wait they have ONE london player

tidal ridge
#

didnt guxue want a chinese OT though

#

bernar probably wont get playtime

digital cloud
#

bernar is london

silk frost
#

Yeah that's the one

tidal ridge
#

@silk frost i meant they have a 12 man roster thats high risk mid reward

silk frost
#

Hangzhou?

#

They have 10

tidal ridge
#

or 11

#

takoyaki?

#

why is he inactive on liquipedia

silk frost
#

11 but 10 eligible

#

Hes 17

tidal ridge
#

league starts on his birthday anyways

silk frost
#

As of now hes illegible

tidal ridge
#

so they can do

#

guxue bernar, guxue lige, takoyaki bernar

silk frost
#

Who should Spark pick up on DPS to bolster their team?

tidal ridge
#

i think takoyaki lige is unlikely

fuck it zarya one trick

digital cloud
#

do I hear

#

seominsoo

silk frost
#

Is Apr1ta 18?

#

I think that rumor was a lie

#

Or it fell through

#

Because it surely woulda gone down by now

#

And Hangzhou have two hitscans

tidal ridge
#

hangzhou has signed 5 rookies this off season

#

4 sorry

#

bernars not a rookie

silk frost
#

Dude what if they get fucking Rascal

#

Or Ivy

tidal ridge
#

i mean they have architect

silk frost
#

Yeah but they have 2 hitscans 1 flex

#

They need a projectile

tidal ridge
#

idk

#

but how do u guys feel about MCD iDK

silk frost
#

Winter is available if they want 2 chinese rosters

#

MCD m1ka may be more likely

tidal ridge
#

i really like the idea of having a full chinese roster available and a full korean one available

#

real question is, where my man glister goin

silk frost
#

Winter is the best chinese flex DPS agailable probably

tidal ridge
#

sanguinar is rumored somewhere

silk frost
#

Dude Glister goes wherever the fuck he wants

tidal ridge
#

bernar is on hangzhou

silk frost
#

Glister can bench Lip if he wants dude idc

tidal ridge
#

fuze is kind of unlikely to be signed, but he might go to boston

silk frost
#

SanGuiNar to Florisa

#

Florida

#

With Glister

tidal ridge
#

right

silk frost
#

Nah dude Fuze grinds in Tendies in 2021

tidal ridge
#

i kind of like fuze to boston tho

silk frost
#

I don't think he should come back tbh

#

There'll be better options and I think he has potential if he grinds

#

Example: Fuze to CC or Gen G

tidal ridge
#

speaking of boston why punk there tho

silk frost
#

Because Punk is the 2nd best western off tank

#

Debatably

tidal ridge
#

if we're talking space then im gonna need to pay for gas to drive to punk from him

silk frost
#

That's because Space is a freak beast of a player

#

But Punk is solid with great potential I think

tidal ridge
#

not that unhappy with current boston

#

halo the feeder is gone so

silk frost
#

All of them have potential

tidal ridge
#

i want fusions to be as good as super since theyre both basically rein mains

silk frost
#

I think Halo was terrible, but with grinding in tendies, could come back and be like... Really good

#

Fusions is actually a better hog than Super lol

tidal ridge
#

i agree

#

i didnt watch the boston vs atlanta game but they took a map so

silk frost
#

Yeah the tank like was Boston's advantage

#

Atlanta won out everywhere else BUT HEY

tidal ridge
#

i question chex but he pops off sometimes, hes like jerry with consistency tho

silk frost
#

Tank line

#

Chex can be good but I don't have the most faith

#

I expect them to pick up an under the radar flex DPS and MS

tidal ridge
#

do u think theyll sign a korean or a western MS

silk frost
#

Western

#

That's where the good ones are

#

Korea has like 5 good main supports

tidal ridge
#

i mean lori could pull a rush and sign anyone whos ever been on their contendies team

silk frost
#

LJG, Tobi, SanGuiNar, and what

#

Yeah wouldn't doubt it

tidal ridge
#

slime

silk frost
#

Ugh

#

No offense

#

But I'm sick of hearing Slime

#

Hes not getting signed unless that team ALSO gets Bumper

#

And even then

tidal ridge
#

hm idk

#

boink still better though

silk frost
#

Crusty even SAID titans players sucked without each other

#

The unit made them strong

#

That was 99% about Slime

#

And Bumper

tidal ridge
#

SLIME 2 time grand finals loser

silk frost
#

Houston just fucking sign Bumper and Slime

#

Do it

#

Pussy

tidal ridge
#

and seominsoo cuz why not

#

danteh hydration bumper slime seominsoo nero happy

#

we'll forget about off-tank tho

cobalt spoke
#

Bumper comes back this season right?

silk frost
#

Maybe

cobalt spoke
#

He wad literally the next best rein player after super

silk frost
#

Oh bring Piggy into that roster

#

He was the best rein with Runaway

#

Not without them

edgy tinsel
#

bumper wasn't the next best rein imo

#

he only looked like that because of the team he had

sullen berry
#

His hanzo was also mediocre

#

But that was a given he would frag when they were already 3-0

rich bear
#

Anyone have the link to the forum post containing the contenders match schedules?

#

Nvm its on pins

vagrant jacinth
#

Yesss bernar signed PogChimp

cedar oasis
#

Erster kinda washed

hot heart
#

Karayan signed to O2 blast

#

Cool

#

Crayon

plush light
#

Kaiser in owl?

cedar oasis
#

No

edgy tinsel
limber pine
#

It’s really a nothing tweet

#

I’ve need regular tweets longer than his tweetlonger

tropic herald
shell forum
#

cant read chinese 😔

hot heart
next mesa
#

Bo5

#

Bo7 in the finals

cedar oasis
#

Crimzo rank 1

hot heart
#

Ummm

#

What

#

Not ameng

#

Please please please not ameng

#

Anyone but him

karmic grotto
#

It's gonna start

#

The invitiation

hot heart
#

What's the first match?

#

Wanna see shanghai

#

And charge

#

Charge basically have a new team and still havent filled out their roster so idk how thats gonna work

#

Shanghai i wanna see because of fate

raw ermine
#

When does it start

#

hmm

#

Karayan joined O2 Blast

#

and undine joined as a coach

hot heart
#

Karayan only joined O2 Blast for the duration of the gauntlet

#

He's still LFT OWL

#

@raw ermine

raw ermine
#

I see

#

Does that mean kaiser is gone?

#

or, dare I say, he's not good enough to play

#

cause Yakpung was leaked to NYXL

#

also my boi Kalios

hot heart
#

I mean honestly

#

Idk man

raw ermine
#

Kalios appreciation thread RN, only OT for o2 for sooo long

hot heart
#

I feel like NYXL wants to bring up a contenders tank line

raw ermine
#

yeah I could see that

hot heart
#

Like

#

MekO and Mano has been the best tankline they've had

raw ermine
hot heart
#

And they still kind of limited the team in some regards

raw ermine
#

hmmm

hot heart
#

So

#

Contenders talent might not have that problem

#

If that makes sense

#

Who are Feath5rs and Gwangboong

#

Ivy and yakpung is a good start tbh

raw ermine
#

feath5r is a talon esports dps

hot heart
#

is he good

raw ermine
#

seems to be the projectile of the team

#

and they're a good team

hot heart
#

Super said talon was the best contenders team shock scrimmed

raw ermine
#

so I would guess yes

hot heart
#

At least during the playoffs

#

So

#

He's probably at worst decent

#

And at best really good

#

I think NYXL should've ripped the band aid off sooner

#

And just started picking up players earlier on

#

Rn the really elite players have found a home

raw ermine
#

gwangboong is team cat Hitscan

#

kitty

hot heart
#

Of course later on in the season more and more people are gonna get dropped or start LFT

#

So theres that

#

O

#

Kitty

raw ermine
#

so the Korean Gauntlet open trials concluded

#

unsurprisingly, the 2 teams with parent teams in the event already, qualified as 1st and 2nd

#

and OZ gaming left gauntlet apparently

#

so one more spot opened up I guess

hot heart
cloud latch
#

????

#

oh it's fake

#

phew

hot heart
#

I wanna scare the fuck outta people

weak bolt
#

I just wish it was true

hot heart
#

Honestly

#

Kris is decent

#

So I'd be fine with him joining justice

#

What other options do you have

#

Unless slime is open to joining Washington

#

But closer is joining wash apparently now

flat sky
#

Spark going 2 team Mayhem

weak bolt
#

Sanguinar still a FA at the moment

flat sky
#

He's probably going to Florida or maybe Boston(Lori)

raw ermine
#

we got that fake one yesterday

trail perch
#

I think the Ria Bebe Closer leak isnt confirmed

#

Consdiering its not Halo

karmic grotto
#

Halo is not the only one leaking

trail perch
#

Halo is the most reliable source

rare chasm
#

OUR BOI GOLDENBOY IS BEING NOMINATED AT THE GAME AWARDS

raw ermine
#

he is but isn't the only source

#

he commonly backs up other ppl

tidal ridge
#

is it a hot take to believe that viol2t might leave sfs because he didnt get grand finals mvp

raw ermine
#

he probably isn't that salty

#

it was chosen by us

#

not them

#

even if he does leave, it won't be 4 that reason

sour magnet
#

Washingtons new signs are such a waste

#

You have mag and decay and fill in the gaps with sub par players

#

Hoping Atleast ria falls through and they end up with fury or melo

#

Meko*

cedar oasis
#

Well

#

We know decay can carry a team

sour magnet
#

When u buy mag and decay

#

U don’t just pray decay can carry

#

U build around them

plush grail
#

if viol2t leaves the shock cause he didn't get finals mvp

sour magnet
#

This is legit why decay left Dallas last year

plush grail
#

he's really just being a bitch

limber pine
#

why would he leave the shock for something completely out of shock's control?

plush grail
#

i honestly think viol2t might be leaving but not for that reason

next mesa
#

if any fs is leaving should be twilight

cedar oasis
#

Why would any of them leave?

plush grail
#

money tbh

next mesa
#

you think shock can't match the offers LOL

plush grail
#

or like moth, they think a different team is gonna be the season 4 champs

cedar oasis
#

Maby they want to start

next mesa
#

viol2t is starting

limber pine
#

!!owl2021

young fractalBOT
plush grail
#

viol2t to chengdu

limber pine
#

if he stays, SFS will be favorites to repeat

plush grail
#

sfs are still the favorites

#

only moth was really a blow to the team

#

rascal was great but he barely played last season

hot heart
#

The only team viol2t would reasonably want to go to is SHD

#

Thats literally it

#

Even then

#

He probably wouldn't

next mesa
#

I think with new hero releases they would still need a rascal like player

plush grail
#

they have taiyo kinda

cedar oasis
#

Shock just get libero

next mesa
#

ta1yo do be hitscan though

#

yeah

#

with libero

#

they will be championship favourites for sure

plush grail
#

super fucking loves sucking libero off

#

if they get a chance

#

super will 100% try his best to get libero

limber pine
#

the spark to justice train begins

cedar oasis
#

Oh

next mesa
#

I dont get it

#

bebe for aimgod

#

really not much of an upgrade

plush grail
#

jhong to seoul when

limber pine
#

I don't think Justice need much of an upgrade

#

they just need a better main tank and a 'good-enough' support line

next mesa
#

they have Mag

cedar oasis
#

How good is mag

next mesa
#

the best contenders main tank

#

for like 2 seasons

limber pine
#

yes, I meant they just needed a better main tank (than roar)

next mesa
#

oh yeah yeah

cedar oasis
#

I remember everyone hyped up roar then when he came he was kinda meh

next mesa
#

for sure

#

that's true

#

contenders tanks can flop

plush grail
#

contenders to owl can be rocky

next mesa
#

they have a pretty long off season though

#

should be better

cedar oasis
#

Fissure to Chungdo when

plush grail
#

chengdu do NOT need fissure

#

fissure is a small fry

next mesa
#

ameng

plush grail
#

ameng is the big chad man

limber pine
#

pieces starting to fall into place

#

Spark starting to look scary

next mesa
#

yeah

plush grail
#

not possible

#

spark is doomed to be a middle tier team

hot heart
#

God

#

Bebe

#

Was there really no one else

#

Okay so

#

None of these players are bad

#

They're all solid

#

But none of them are really like at the same level of mag or decay

#

OT was a huge downgrade

#

And like levy said bebe isnt much of an upgrade over aimgod

limber pine
#

is there anybody else

#

flex support market dried up really fast

hot heart
#

Yeah

#

But its not bad

#

But OT really confuses me

#

Why ria

limber pine
#

shu, fielder, rapel, kariv, MCD, shy,

hot heart
#

He's not bad but if you got him in place of Jjanu

#

You might regret it

cedar oasis
#

Should've gotten meko

hot heart
#

Ye

#

MekO or Fury

#

Fury def in talks with other teams

#

But if you have the money to sign decay

#

You could maybe sign fury

cedar oasis
#

Meko was very solid and kinda cheap

hot heart
#

Yeah

cedar oasis
#

Fury is expensive

hot heart
#

But hes better

limber pine
#

popular theory is ex-philly is off to Toronto

hot heart
#

See

#

I think that might happen

cedar oasis
#

Why

hot heart
#

But what the fuck is logix doing there

#

And beast

cedar oasis
#

They have beast

hot heart
#

It wasnt like they knew before hand

limber pine
#

I'm all for giving beast another chance, but if you have to pick another main tank up halfway through the season, it doesn't look good

hot heart
#

So they could probably still surprise us and sign the ex fusion core

cedar oasis
#

Fury would want a top 5 mt partner

hot heart
#

If they sign ex fusion

#

Sado goes with him

#

But

cedar oasis
#

Idk

hot heart
#

Do toronto even have the money

#

Sado And fury

cedar oasis
#

Sado needs a good support line to be good

hot heart
#

That shit is expensive

hot heart
#

But

#

At worst

#

Sado is still top 5

#

Even without the best supports

#

But yeah it would hinder his play heavily

cedar oasis
#

What supports do Toronto have

hot heart
#

No one

#

Wait

#

They signed aztac i think

plush light
#

Bebe isn't good. Why sign him?

hot heart
#

Yeah they did

hot heart
raw ermine
#

bebe is fine

cedar oasis
#

Bebe is like ok

raw ermine
#

they played him over coldest

#

a top tier chinese flex support

shell forum
#

hes like c- tier

plush light
#

I would try to get someone like creative or bdosin. Both deserve a starting spot but they are on the same team. Luffy would be good as well.

limber pine
#

bebe and aimgod are arguably the same player

#

stats will tell you that

cedar oasis
#

Depends how deep washingtons pockets go

next mesa
#

it's just kinda weird

cedar oasis
#

Decay and mag must cost alot

limber pine
#

there's no significant downgrade or upgrade to bebe vs aimgod

plush light
#

They should have signed luffy

#

He would be an upgrade

raw ermine
#

HZS are gonna have a half korean, half chinese team soon

#

which group are they gonna play?

#

who knows

plush light
raw ermine
#

yeah

#

that would be fun

#

like s2 dynasty

cedar oasis
#

Didnt they sign another mt

raw ermine
#

yeah

#

takoyaki

#

or something

#

yeah

cedar oasis
#

Is he better than guixe

raw ermine
#

takoyaki

#

probably not

#

he is underage

#

and korean

limber pine
#

April 18th

#

so depending on when the season starts

tidal ridge
#

washington be like: ima have 2 good players then sign shit players

next mesa
#

should be good

#

season starts in like

#

april

#

even if it starts in feb

#

that's only 2 months

limber pine
#

yeah

tidal ridge
#

yeah guxue can survive for 2 monthsdd

limber pine
#

jerry isn't a bad player

#

neither is bebe

next mesa
#

yeah

silk frost
#

no

next mesa
#

jerry might be better than stitch

#

idk about bebe though

silk frost
#

coldest is coming

next mesa
#

dont know much about

silk frost
#

Closer*

tidal ridge
#

from aimgod to bebe?

#

you drop aimgod then get someone who might as well just be the same level?

#

and stitch to jerry?

limber pine
#

there are other reasons to do things other than one player is better than others

#

!!owl2021

young fractalBOT
next mesa
#

yeah

limber pine
#

maybe they tried to re-sign them and they didn't want to stay

tidal ridge
#

not like any of bebe's former teammates is there

next mesa
#

maybe in scrims they were just better

balmy wolf
#

@limber pine do you have a link to rosters as of right now

limber pine
#

well supposedly Ria is going to Justice

tidal ridge
#

oh god

limber pine
#

that third link is the the roster updates

#

otherwise you'll have to look at liquipedia

tidal ridge
#

they shouldve signed fury

limber pine
#

they may be trying to

#

who knows really

tidal ridge
#

think he might go to toronto but idk

#

or seoul

limber pine
#

Mag/Fury would be a disgusting tank duo though

tidal ridge
#

yeah

limber pine
#

I certainly would love that

#

as a justice fan

tidal ridge
#

i find it hard to believe that BeBe will be any sort of upgrade from aimgod

limber pine
#

I don't disagree

silk frost
#

Hes been consistently improving since day 1 though

limber pine
#

but if we have decay and a strong tank line, we may not need him to be an upgrade

silk frost
#

You will if you wanna be champions

tidal ridge
#

i don't disagree is a weird way to word things

hot heart
#

Washington need someone better than Ria at OT though

#

And at FS

#

I assume they're signing a second FS

silk frost
#

I think Ria still has some fire in him

hot heart
#

Since most of last season had Double FS metas

#

Ria is solid

#

But if you wanna win a championship

silk frost
#

Yeah I agree

hot heart
#

Id go for someone better

silk frost
#

Hes better than Bebe though

hot heart
#

Hmm

limber pine
#

they could get Revenge lol

hot heart
#

Supreme must be thinking of something

hot heart
next mesa
#

yeah I think revenge is really good

#

fs in runaway

#

he was in owl for like
